Although the Tang Sect is a family, its strength is not inferior to those of other sects. The head of the family, Tang Linhai, is an extraordinary figure. He is extremely skilled in hidden weapon skills. According to rumors, Tang Linhai can launch hundreds of hidden weapons in one second, and the types of hidden weapons are also very impressive.
It was different. There was once a master-level master who provoked Tang Linhai, and was shot into a hedgehog by Tang Linhai with a hidden weapon. His death was extremely tragic.
Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang walked through a mountain forest, and then saw a row of houses. The house in the middle was particularly tall. From a distance, it looked like a roaring giant looking up to the sky.
This is the Tang Sect! The Tang Sect that is so powerful in the martial arts world!
Ma Xiaoyao showed his identity and easily entered the Tangmen, and then met Tang Linhai in the meeting hall after being away for many days.
"Master Tang, I haven't seen you for several months, but you are still as charming as ever." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"What do you want from me?" Tang Linhai asked expressionlessly.
"Uh... Head of the Tang family, do you still remember... When I gave you the Tang Sect's hidden weapon collection, you promised me three things... Later, you only fulfilled two things, and one thing you failed to fulfill..."
"Of course I remember." Tang Linhai nodded: "I, Tang Linhai, will definitely fulfill the promise I made. Tell me, what do you want me to do? As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you realize it."
"Well, I want to visit your family's treasure house and pick out a few treasures. I wonder if the Tang family can agree?" Ma Xiaoyao's visit to the treasure house was fake, but his attempt to obtain the key to the mysterious stone door was real.
"No problem." Tang Linhai agreed happily: "I will take you to visit the treasure house now. You can take whatever you like...but..." At this point, Tang Linhai paused: "You are the most
I can take three things."
"Okay." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I'll take three things."
"Let's go." Tang Linhai stood up and left the hall.
Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang hurriedly followed.
The treasure house was only a few hundred meters away from the meeting hall. In a moment, Tang Linhai led Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang to the treasure house, took out the key and opened the door, and then Tang Linhai led Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang in.
The treasure house is not large in area, just over 200 square meters, but there are quite a lot of things stored in it. The two rows of shelves on the left hold a variety of hidden weapons, and the two rows of shelves on the right hold some books. In the middle of the treasure house are
There is a stone platform with a statue enshrined on it. He has long hair and a handsome appearance. He is wearing a long gown and has his hands behind his back. He looks into the distance and looks very imposing.
Tang Linhai pointed at the statue and said with reverence: "This is the ancestor of our Tang Sect, known as the 'Ancestor of Hidden Weapons'. He is a very remarkable person."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "A family that can create a hidden weapon like Tang Clan is indeed not an ordinary person." As Ma Xiaoyao spoke, he glanced at the six objects at the foot of the statue. The first one was a dagger, and the second one was a knife.
The third hairpin is a luminous pearl, the fourth is a book, the fifth is a silver needle, and the sixth is a round stone.
"What do you like? Just take it!" Tang Linhai said, "Except for this statue of our ancestors, you can take anything else you want." Tang Linhai was indeed generous enough. You must know that there are many good treasures in the treasure house.
If Ma Xiaoyao is allowed to choose on his own, his magnanimity cannot be matched by ordinary people.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned slightly, where is the key? Why didn't he see the key? Did no one steal the key to the Tang Sect? Or was it not placed here at all? Ma Xiaoyao worked hard to enter the Tang Sect's treasure house. The purpose
I just want to find the key to open the mysterious stone door, but now... there is no sign of the key at all.
Ma Xiaoyao wanted to ask, but didn't know how to ask. Tang Linhai was the head of the Tang clan and he was very shrewd. If he wasn't careful, he might arouse Tang Linhai's suspicion.
Can't ask!
Absolutely don’t ask!
Tang Linhai must not let him know that he is here for the key...
"Have you made your choice?" Seeing Ma Xiaoyao remain silent for a long time, Tang Linhai became a little impatient.
"Um... I... uh..." Ma Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows suddenly, and then stared at the statue of the ancestor of the Tang clan: "I want this statue..."
"Whoa!"
Tang Linhai's face suddenly darkened: "I told you very clearly just now. Apart from the statues of ancestors, you can choose other things. This statue is of great significance to our Tang Sect. I absolutely cannot give it to you."
"Don't worry, just listen to what I have to say." Ma Xiaoyao pointed at the waist of the statue: "I want his belt."
"Belt?" Tang Linhai was stunned.
"Yes, belt!" Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I found this belt to be particularly beautiful, and it's... made of pure gold, right? It's very valuable."
"This..." Tang Linhai hesitated.
"Master Tang, you just said that apart from this statue, I have everything else for me to choose from. Now I'm attracted to this belt, and you can't bear to part with it? How can your words not count?" Ma Xiaoyao was very dissatisfied.
said.
"This belt is also part of the statue..."
"What part? It's just a decoration at most. Moreover, this belt is very old and has started to fade in many places. It looks particularly unsightly. You might as well get a new belt."
"This belt was handed down from our ancestors and has always been tied to the statue..."
"Why are you so stubborn? What happened to the things passed down from your ancestors? You can't give them away anymore? Head Tang, this is the 21st century. Your thoughts can't be too conservative. You should keep pace with the times.
…”
"Okay, stop talking. Since you like this belt, I will give it to you."
Tang Linhai was annoyed by Ma Xiaoyao. In order to send Ma Xiaoyao away as soon as possible, Tang Linhai could only give the belt to Ma Xiaoyao. It was just a belt. He would make a more gorgeous belt to put on the statue later.
.
Ma Xiaoyao unhurriedly took off the belt from the statue, then folded it and stuffed it into his arms.
"There are two more things, hurry up and choose." Tang Linhai promised Ma Xiaoyao to choose three things, and he will definitely honor them. This is Tang Linhai's integrity.
In order not to arouse Tang Linhai's suspicion, Ma Xiaoyao pretended to pick two jade pendants.
"Let's go out." After Ma Xiaoyao picked up the things, Tang Linhai led Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang out of the treasure house: "I have a lot of things to do recently, and I really can't spare the time to entertain you...
If you have nothing else to do, please go back and wait until I have time to entertain you."
What's the meaning?
Are you going to drive us away?
Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "Master Tang, I plan to have a few drinks with you..."
"Sorry, I never drink." Tang Linhai said lightly.
"Even if you don't drink, you can just eat and chat." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "We finally met each other, so we should have a good chat."
"I'm sorry, I've been really busy recently and can't spare time to have dinner with you." Tang Linhai said.
Tang Linhai had already said this, what else could Ma Xiaoyao say?
Come on, let’s leave!
"In that case, we won't disturb Patriarch Tang..." Ma Xiaoyao squeezed out a smile: "When Patriarch Tang has free time in the future, we will come to visit again." After bidding farewell to Tang Linhai, Ma Xiaoyao and Lei Dazhuang left.
To Tangmen.
…
Although he was kicked out, Ma Xiaoyao was not angry at all. Instead, he was a little excited because... he got the belt.
Ma Xiaoyao took out his belt from his arms. After looking through it carefully for a while, he pulled out something from the middle of the belt. It was about the thickness of a finger, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. It was also carved with strange patterns. This thing was to open the mysterious stone door.
key.
Asking for the belt is a lie, the real purpose is the key hidden in the belt.
"It seems that the Tang Sect doesn't know the origin and purpose of this key." Ma Xiaoyao thought to himself: "If Tang Linhai knew the origin and purpose of the key, he would never give it to me easily... The Tianshan Sect doesn't know the key.
Neither the Shaolin Temple nor the Tang Sect knows the purpose... I guess other sects can't know it either..." Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Ma Xiaoyao's lips. He didn't know the purpose. It would be better for him to get the key.
.
Now Ma Xiaoyao has a total of two keys in his hand. As long as he finds the other eight keys, he can open the mysterious stone door and get the mysterious treasure...
"It's a pity that the key to Shaolin Temple is lost. It's not easy to find it back." Ma Xiaoyao sighed softly.
No matter what, get the other seven keys first. As for the lost key of Shaolin Temple... let's look for it slowly.
The remaining seven keys are in Wudang Sect, Qingcheng Sect, Wudu Sect, Iron Sword Sect, Zhenbao Tower, Baihua Valley, and Ice Palace.
Chen Yunhu, the head of the Qingcheng Sect, and Yun Xianzi, the head of the Five Poison Sect, both had a grudge against Ma Xiaoyao, and the hatred was still very deep, so Ma Xiaoyao kicked out the Qingcheng Sect and the Five Poison Sect and ignored them for the time being.
, and after the other sects have been dealt with, we will come back to the Qingcheng Sect and the Five Poison Sect.
The remaining five sects have nothing to do with Ma Xiaoyao. It is not an easy task for Ma Xiaoyao to get the keys from these five sects.
After pondering for a moment, Ma Xiaoyao took out his mobile phone and called Tang Mingchuan: "Old Tang, I want to ask you something. Now that you have become the chief director, you have greater power. If I use official power to suppress those
Wulin sect, how much support can you give me?"
"I won't give you any support." Tang Mingchuan said angrily: "Last time you used official power to suppress the Tianshan sect, and finally forced out a peerless female devil, killing and wounding many policemen. For this reason, I also
I was severely reprimanded by the superior leader. The superior leader issued a strict order. From now on, we are not allowed to use official power privately to suppress those martial arts sects. Anyone who refuses to listen will be dealt with severely. Lao Ma, you can't act recklessly. Once you cause trouble,
If something happens, not only will you be punished, but I will also be implicated. This is definitely not a joke!"
