The jade tube was sent out of the "window" by the female cultivator. After breaking through the transparent restrictive film, it flew towards Li Xuangang.
The latter stretched out his hand to grab him. Just when he was about to invade his spiritual consciousness for inspection, the female cultivator spoke again:
"Although Fellow Taoist already knows the rules, due to the special nature of this 'goods', I still want to remind you."
"Once a fellow Taoist opens the jade tube, if he does not agree with the information inside, he must keep the contents secret and not leak them to others. If you leave this space, besides you and me, a fourth person will know,
We will come to hold you accountable."
"Of course, if fellow Taoist decides to complete the transaction, then after leaving this space, this object will have nothing to do with us anymore, and we will leave all decisions to fellow Taoist."
Li Xuangang's hand that picked up the jade tube paused in mid-air for a moment. When the other party finished speaking, he turned his eyes and hesitated for a moment, then continued to put the jade tube against his forehead.
There was not much content in the jade tube, and Li Xuangang finished browsing it in just a moment.
So he took off the jade tube from his forehead, held it in his hand and rubbed it, then raised his head and looked at the female cultivator opposite, and said:
"Then this thing...I want it!"
...
...
Once the deal is concluded, there is no need to return the jade tube in your hand.
Li Xuangang took out the six middle-grade spiritual stones that he had prepared long ago from his storage bag, and then threw them out.
The female cultivator cast a spell to take six medium-grade spiritual stones into her hands from mid-air, and after briefly checking them, she turned over her hands and put them away.
When she looked at Li Xuangang again, she said:
"According to the original rules, a guidance token can only make one transaction request, but something is different today. Seeing that fellow Taoist is so cheerful, I will make an exception. If you have any items you still want, you might as well let me know now.
, if so, I can delay it for a little longer."
Li Xuangang held the jade tube in his hand that recorded the location information of the third-order venom spider king, and was preparing to wait for the other party to verify the spirit stone before leaving here with Zhengda.
But before getting up, he heard what the other party said, so he sat down again with a little doubt in his heart.
What does she mean?
His mind was spinning rapidly, but he had never heard that there was an exception here before.
But after a moment of silence, he couldn't think of a reason in his mind, so Li Xuangang stopped worrying too much and just assumed that the other party really had some special circumstances today.
So he put the jade tube in his hand into his storage bag and said:
"Since my fellow Taoist has such good intentions, it would be disrespectful for me to reject it."
Having said this, Li Xuangang paused again, and then asked in an unusually calm and serious tone:
"I wonder if there are ghost fruits here?"
"Well...if there is any, I'm willing to use mid-grade spiritual stones to buy it, or barter for it!"
The female nun: "..."
...
...
The bright moonlight shrouded the entire Qimingfang City in a faint white light.
Under such a white light, in an extremely quiet street in the west area of Qimingfang City, a sudden change appeared on a bluestone wall, and then, two black figures appeared from inside.
Judging from the masks on their faces, it was Li Xuangang and Zheng Da who had disappeared in the city before.
Without immediately taking off the mask on his face, Li Xuangang looked around at the surrounding environment and found that this was not the place they entered before, but a different place.
There are three streets between this place and the previous bluestone wall, about one mile away.
Secretly sighing in his heart at the strangeness of the fourth-order magic circle, the entrance and exit points were different every time, and then he straightened his head and looked at Zheng Da.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual on Zongda's body, he raised his right hand and looked at the dark purple guidance token on it.
But the next scene was a little unusual.
The guidance token that was originally in his hand shattered and turned into a pile of dark black powder.
Staring at the guidance token that had turned into a pile of powder in his hand, Li Xuangang's eyes began to become profound.
After a moment, he casually shook away the black powder in his hand, letting it float in the night wind, and finally fell into the gaps between different bluestones on the ground.
"It seems that this guidance token can only be used once."
"How can this organization be so cautious?"
He patted the last bit of black powder stuck to his hand and muttered these two words.
Then, he greeted Zheng Da loudly and took the lead to walk towards the outskirts of the street where he was.
Stiffness naturally follows.
Soon the two of them left here and turned from one street intersection into another street.
To the other monks on the road, they seemed to be in a hurry.
Just like the figures they saw on the street when they came here.
...
...
After turning three or five streets in a row, it was no longer dark in the distance, and light and shadow could be faintly seen, and there were some noisy sounds coming from there.
So Li Xuangang noticed this scene and knew that he had left the secluded streets behind him and returned to the normal area of Qimingfang City.
He wanted to take off the mask on his face, but his outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.
His eyes wandered towards a dark corner behind him, and finally he put his hand down.
Seeing this, Zhengda, who originally wanted to take off the mask on his face, also stopped moving and quietly moved closer to Li Xuangang.
Put your hands behind your back, tilt your head back slightly, and speak softly to Zhengda:
"Let's go!"
They nodded silently, and then the two of them continued walking forward side by side.
After passing through the first few streets, they followed the crowd into the most central area of Qimingfang City.
The moonlight and lights reflected each other, and Li Xuangang and Zheng Da deliberately made a few circles in it, and when no one around them was paying attention, they wandered into a corner.
He casually opened a light curtain to cover himself and Zhengda, and activated two second-level mid-grade breath-containing charms brought from his family inside.
When the light curtain dissipated, the figures of Li Xuangang and Zong Da had disappeared.
This corner is a bit remote, so no one noticed that the two figures had just disappeared. On the street not far away, there was still brilliant light and shadow, and people were coming and going.
However, after about half a quarter of an hour, a gust of breeze blew into this corner, and while the dust on the ground was picked up, a black figure suddenly appeared from the void.
This figure was wearing a black robe with a gold thread embroidered on the sleeves.
After he revealed his figure, he looked around, seemingly looking for something.
However, a moment passed and he couldn't find what he was looking for. The place seemed empty.
So there was a little surprise in his eyes, and when the next breeze came, he disappeared again.
...
...
On the west side of Qimingfang City, there is an unknown underground space shrouded by a fourth-level magic circle.
The female revisionist who had received Li Xuangang and Zheng Da was sitting cross-legged in a room. There were some classics and booklets piled on the wooden table in front of her.
And she was holding a brush-like instrument and recording something on it.
Suddenly, her constantly moving pen stopped at a certain moment, then retracted it, and the pen holder was resting on a landscape inkstone.
"Lost?"
A cold voice came out, but there was no chill in it.
In front of her wooden table, a figure suddenly appeared from the void. After hearing the question, he immediately bowed and answered:
"Elder, the other party was very alert. The disciple followed a little closer, and he discovered my trace. Then he probably used a method of concealing his body to get rid of the disciple."
"The disciple is incompetent. After careful inspection, he couldn't even find any clues about their whereabouts."
Hearing this, the female cultivator reached out and took off the mask on her face, revealing her true face.
She turned out to be a very delicate-looking woman.
The figure who was bowing in front of her felt a little frightened when he saw this. He didn't dare to stand up or continue to say anything. He just kept his bowed posture motionless.
The female cultivator, whose aura had become extremely profound, stood up from her seat and walked casually in front of a row of containers.
After a while, she continued:
"Since we've lost him... let's forget it. If he appears in Fangshi again later, just pay more attention to him."
"Yes, elder."
After the figure paused for a moment, he hesitated and said again:
"Otherwise, we should wait at the location of the third-order venom spider king in advance, and we should be able to find their traces..."
Before he finished speaking, an extremely sharp gaze appeared on him. Although it was not a magical power, the monk felt as if thousands of needles were attached to his body.
"It's disciple Duoyan..."
He wanted to continue to argue, but the female cultivator had already retracted her gaze and stopped him with her hand.
She opened her mouth and said:
"There are enough bad rules today. Don't do things that harm your reputation anymore."
"Besides, this person is not too important. He just makes me feel a little familiar... Since I have lost him, let's forget it and follow my previous instructions."
"Disciple knows this and will obey the elder's instructions."
Afterwards, at the female nun's signal, the man withdrew from the room.
The former also sat on the wooden chair next to the wooden table again.
But this time, she did not immediately pick up the pen and restore the previous record, but murmured softly:
"The Li family in Taiqiu Mountain? Huh... I haven't seen a member of this family for a long time."
Then, she picked up the brush she had put down before, and while writing something in a book in front of her, she spoke again:
"In the late stage of foundation building... he is cautious by nature... which is a bit interesting, but the other person next to him is... surrounded by corpse energy. Could he be a disciple of the Corpse Ghost Sect?"
These words came out softly, but her pen tip did not stop.
Looking down, a line of writing suddenly appeared on the booklet:
"Golden elixir monk Li Changqing... Corpse Ghost Sect... Hengduan Mountains and Tianhe..."
A bright yellow light spot appeared on the top of the red candle on the wooden table. Just when the light spot was about to go out, the female nun finally stopped what she was doing and covered the booklet.
Immediately afterwards, she stood up with the booklet and came to a row of wooden shelves at the back.
While stuffing the booklet inside, he murmured softly with a slightly unclear smile:
