Chapter 229 Fang Yuan: The General has a treasure!
Chapter 229 Fangyuan: General, here is a treasure!
Wang Sheng needs to practice the mysterious method and needs resources. He must complete the basic practice of the first level of refining the gods as soon as possible in order to avoid the consumption of lifespan when he uses the "magic pen" next.
So can he choose not to use this "magic pen" in the future?
Of course it is possible, but the prerequisite is that Wang Sheng is willing to go back and continue to live in poverty and poverty, which is obviously impossible.
After receiving the "Magic Pen" for a few years, Wang Sheng had become completely accustomed to the happy time of spending money freely. It would be more uncomfortable for him to go back to his original miserable life than to kill him.
This is how easy it is to move from frugality to luxury, but how difficult it is to move from luxury to frugality!
Therefore, no matter how great the risk was, Wang Sheng could only grit his teeth and keep sending the "people in the painting" to search and investigate the mansions of those high-ranking and powerful people.
Fortunately, the nearly one month's time has not been in vain. Although he is not 100% sure about the target, he has already locked several locations that are extremely dangerous but relatively small.
Especially the treasure houses and libraries of several princes' mansions. Wang Sheng was preparing to take action one by one. Of course, the person who took action must be the "person in the painting", not himself.
As his proficiency in using the "magic pen" increased, Wang Sheng discovered that as long as he calmed down and sensed carefully, there was still a certain connection between the "person in the painting" and himself. Although this vague connection was not enough for him to use it to do something.
Something, but it is still possible to perceive the life and death of the "people in the painting".
So two days ago, the "green-skinned kid" suddenly died in Baolinghou Mansion, which shocked him so much that Wang Sheng cowered in the courtyard of Yuelai Inn for three consecutive days, not daring to take a step out.
It wasn't until three nights later that he dared to send another "grey-skinned rat man" to the XC area to check the situation.
Baolinghou Mansion was the second Bohou Mansion that Wang Sheng chose to build. Although the first Hongchang Bohou Mansion did not yield any results, it also encountered no unexpected situations.
It seems that this Marquis Mansion is different. Wang Shengcai took action on the first Marquis Mansion, but it collapsed.
But the more this happened, the more Wang Sheng thought that the Baolinghou Mansion had a treasure that was worth continuing to take action on!
Only then did the "grey-skinned rat men" continue to dispatch three days later.
The "gray-skinned rat man" is different from the previous imp. That imp is just the "man in the painting" that Wang Sheng summoned by spending 15 days of his lifespan.
As for the "gray-skinned rat man", this is a powerful "man in the painting" that Wang Sheng spent two months of his lifespan on, and his life span was only reduced to 12 days.
Its strength has reached the late acquired stage, and the rat race imagined by Wang Sheng is a race of natural thieves who are extremely good at hiding, lurking and escaping.
Wang Sheng has great confidence in it. This rat tribe is also one of his whims when he was a child. The childhood memories he regained during this period made him think that he and the "magic pen" were a perfect match, and that he was it.
Lord of destiny.
Wang Sheng had a premonition that he would soon be able to embark on the road to immortality. At that time, he would use the extraordinary power he had gained through cultivation to support the "magic pen" and then live freely in the world.
When he has enough time, he will still have to study why the peerless beauty painted with magic brush cannot be seen through!
Hmm...it's not that it can't be penetrated, it's just that it's not moisturized at all, and if you force it through, your nails will get hurt.
Although the beauties in the painting are indeed more alluring than the top courtesans in the paintings with their seductive and flirtatious postures, they just don't have the function of moisturizing, which makes Wang Sheng very painful.
Although you can also let "Beauty" get some oil...
Ahem! I’m going too far...
Wang Sheng once again waited anxiously for more than an hour in the inn. This time, the "gray-skinned rat man" did not disappoint him. It didn't take long for Wang Sheng to sense that the rat man was staying at a street two streets away from Yuelai Inn.
The position is motionless.
Got it!
I don't know what kind of collection the Baolinghou Mansion has, but Wang Sheng still stopped himself from making any move.
Although the rat man was indeed good at hiding and sneaking, he did not dare to confirm that no one was really following him. Wang Sheng decided to wait for a few days before talking.
And since the Baolinghou Mansion has succeeded, it is better to let the "grey-skinned rat man" take advantage of his limited life of eight days and let him take a few more shots.
In this way, even if you don't get the mysterious refining method and resources you want one time, you can always get it if you try it a few times.
Anyway, there are two more strongholds prepared before...
I have to say that this Wang Sheng has indeed become extremely cunning, ever since he learned the lesson of "Flower Picking Bee Zhang San".
Later, when the "people in the painting" took action again, regardless of success or failure, Wang Sheng no longer asked them to return to join him, but chose temporary strongholds here and there.
All kinds of dirt will be stored in the stronghold for 3 to 7 days. During this period, another "person in the painting" will secretly keep an eye on them. Until it is determined that there is no problem, the second person in the painting will take action to deal with the stolen goods, and then
disappear.
This is the simplified process. If the process of extracting life span each time was not so exciting, Wang Sheng would definitely make a more complicated plan than this.
This is also one of the reasons why Wang Sheng's lifespan is consumed so quickly.
Well...this is also the reason why Zhang Shun and Fangyuan, two legendary martial arts warriors who have been bored recently, are a bit confused at the moment, and their true intention of martial arts is to lock the "gray-skinned rat man".
"Brother Shun, is this thing a rat spirit or an orc from the fairy world? Why is it hiding in this broken house and motionless now?"
Fangyuan is the new legendary strongman in this year's legion. It is said that his name was given by a great monk from the Tiekan Temple, the Jia family's family temple.
Fangyuan's grandfathers were also soldiers of the previous Duke Rong Guo, and they were also their own people who knew the basics.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
The two legendary powerful men in the world looked at each other, neither of them able to confirm the identity of the "gray-skinned rat man" below or the reason for its behavior today.
But, now that this group of people has been caught, the truth will come out sooner or later, so the two of them still have some patience.
It turned out that the two of them were one of the legionnaires on vacation who took over Jia Lian's mission from Jia Sidao. By coincidence, they happened to be inspecting the surroundings of Baolinghou Mansion tonight.
From the moment this "gray-skinned rat man" sneaked into the Baoling Hou Mansion, to bagging a big bundle from the top floor of the Hou Mansion's library, and then to sneaking all the way here, it all fell into the possession of Zhang Shun and Fangyuan.
In the "eye".
At this time, the "gray-skinned rat man" below was hiding in a slightly dilapidated small courtyard deep in a certain alley. Just now, it first hid the baggage it brought out from the Baolinghou Mansion into the dry well in the small courtyard.
Inside.
Then he covered the stone slabs beside the dry well back to their original positions, then jumped onto the beam under the eaves on the outside of the house, and then followed the wall beside the beam to a large cave that had been dug close to the roof.
He backed up and shrank in, leaving only half of a huge rat head inside the hole covered by black shadows.
The rat whiskers on the "gray-skinned rat man"'s mouth poked out of the hole, trembling with the breeze from time to time, and a pair of small eyes seemed to be open, as if they were ready to escape at any time.
And every one or two hours, it will sneak out of the yard and explore the surrounding area. After making sure it is safe, it will retreat back into the cave that is close to the eaves of the bricks.
Zhang Shun and Fangyuan looked a little speechless. With such high vigilance and good hiding ability, they had to become thieves if they could do anything bad.
Such a person is extremely good at sneaking and hiding. He is born to inquire about information and even go deep behind enemy lines. No matter which general in the army, he is a very valued existence. Why bother to come here in fear just to steal some property?
What? You said it was a big rat?
Well, if we didn't tell you, this guy really can only be a thief.
After all, people who are not of my race must have different minds.
In the next few days, Zhang Shun and Fangyuan have been patiently tracking and observing this "gray-skinned rat man".
As the observation continued, both of them felt a little admiration for this ratman's cautious character and its anti-detection ability.
Although there is clearly a big difference between the two realms, this rat man whose strength is only in the late acquired realm sometimes behaves as if he is vaguely aware of the existence of the two of them, and is restless.
This made Zhang Shun and Fangyuan no longer dare to observe each other directly with their eyes...
It’s simply off the mark!
But the more this happens, the more interested the two of them are in the person behind the scenes!
I believe the general will be equally interested...
In the following days, the two of them kept monitoring the "grey-skinned rat man", but never found anyone else coming here to contact them.
On the contrary, this rat man attacked the other two princes' mansions again. He was indeed a small master in his later stage. In addition, most of the real masters of these princes' mansions were sent overseas to seize profits.
The "gray-skinned rat man" relied on his racial talent and strength to succeed repeatedly...
However, in the middle of the night on the seventh day, the rat man actually carried a package out of the dry well, jumped up, and walked straight out of the courtyard and along the street towards the East City Gate, never to return.
Zhang Shun and Fangyuan looked at each other and both felt that something was fishy. Zhang Shun followed the "gray-skinned rat man" to see what he was trying to do, while Fangyuan was still staring at the dilapidated yard and waiting.
Finally, the "gray-skinned rat man" climbed out of the city from the unguarded city wall with a bundle on his back, and then headed straight to the northwest.
Wearing a gray cloak, it just hurried along, crossing mountains and rivers, and traveled more than 1,300 miles in one night!
Then this "gray-skinned rat man" melted away under Zhang Shun's eyes!
Only a gray-black linen package was left, which contained some not-so-valuable jewelry and broken silver.
Zhang Shun Yukong, who was flying high in the sky to monitor, suddenly stiffened, and he couldn't believe his own moves.
He quickly landed on the ground and inspected it carefully to make sure that it was not a rat burrowing or something like that. He then spent a lot of time patrolling a ten-mile radius in the low altitude.
Only then did Zhang Shun return to Shenjing City with a somewhat explosive attitude. Fortunately, a new situation arose on Fangyuan's side, who was responsible for waiting.
Zhang Shun left and never returned. After Fang Yuan squatted in this dilapidated courtyard for a whole day, he originally wanted to go into the dry well in the courtyard at night to check it out.
As a result, at this moment, a figure secretly observing this dilapidated courtyard fell into Fangyuan's sight...
Zhang Shun came back to meet up with Fangyuan, and the two of them almost laughed angrily. They were two legendary warriors who were almost played by a late-acquired rat spirit. They were really embarrassed.
In this way, the two of them had to find out the person behind the scenes before they would give up. Next, they held a breath in their hearts at the same time, and they just looked at the person secretly watching below, waiting for the real owner to appear.
During this period, Jia Sidao also asked about the progress, but they were temporarily put off by the two of them saying, "We already have an idea, and we are looking for opportunities to catch them all."
Finally, another five days passed, and there were only two days left before the half-month that Jia Lian casually mentioned when he assigned the task. Changes finally appeared again.
It was still late at night when the man secretly watching the sentry finally appeared. He was a six-foot-tall man with a black scarf and ordinary features.
I saw him walking around the dilapidated small courtyard several times. After making sure that no one was watching, he quietly slipped into the small courtyard in the dark night. He moved the stone slabs on the dry well and drilled it.
Go in.
After a while, he rushed out from the dry well carrying a box, and then quickly left the dilapidated courtyard and began to wander around in the dark streets.
Irregularly turning left and right, going east and west, and circling a slum street in Nancheng District twice, I finally returned to a shabby courtyard in Beicheng District that was also deep in an alley.
But he didn't know that the harder he tried to get around, the more excited the two old men hiding in the dark clouds high in the sky became, because this meant that today was probably the time when the person behind the scenes showed up!
In the small courtyard in Beicheng District, the lights in the main room were still on, and Wang Sheng was sitting here waiting.
Soon, the "person in the painting" masked in black scarf came to the courtyard carrying a box, opened the door with a creak, and silently placed the bamboo box in his hand on the table in front of Wang Sheng.
Looking at the bamboo box made of extremely ordinary material in front of him, Wang Sheng looked excited. Finally... my road to becoming an immortal is finally about to begin!
"Are you the owner of that weird rat spirit and that green-faced imp? Why have you been struggling for so long?
Could it be that those uncles have some great treasures hidden in their homes?"
In the silent night sky, the sudden sound of three consecutive questions made Wang Sheng's scalp tighten and his whole body became stiff.
Damn it! I’m so cautious, but I’m still exposed?
How can this be?
Subconsciously, Wang Sheng reached into his arms and grabbed the "magic pen" with a speed he had never seen before in his life. As soon as he twisted the cap of the pen, it fell off on its own.
With another wave of his right hand, the last stroke of the fierce ghost picture that had been prepared on the inner lining of his arms was added. At the same time, a large amount of life essence that had never been seen before began to ruthlessly flow out of the king's body.
He was violently taken away by the "magic pen".
In the blink of an eye, Wang Sheng's long black hair with some gray on his temples turned completely gray!
One year, two years, three years, until five years of life were exhausted at once, the air in front of Wang Sheng began to become distorted.
A giant ghost nearly ten feet tall, covered in red, with a large raised sarcoma on its forehead, a cheek full of horizontal flesh, and two thumb-thick fangs protruding from its bloody mouth. It looked extremely ugly and ferocious!
This giant fierce ghost has an unparalleled aura, with long, snow-white hair blowing in the wind, and its entire body is condensed with almost substantive extraordinary energy. It looks very untouchable.
"Huh? This pen is quite interesting. It can actually allow you, a mortal, to summon a monster that is comparable to an innate master!
Interesting! So interesting~
Such an interesting treasure, if I present it to the general, he will definitely consider giving me a legendary piece of equipment!"
