An alchemy furnace fell from the sky
Chapter 186 Trading
"Come in and close the door."
As Shi Buzhuan spoke, he took out a strange-shaped gourd from his arms and held it in his hand, then patted it gently. The gourd immediately emitted sharp screams one after another.
Xu Fu knew as soon as he heard that it contained a "cricket". He often caught it and played with it when he was a child, but he didn't know what Shi Buzhuan meant by taking it out.
Although Xu Fu was surprised, he did not ask. As a "servant", he was not qualified to ask questions to his master.
"This is a spiritual insect called Ye Ming."
Shi Bujuan seemed to have noticed Xu Fu's doubts and explained: "The cry of this kind of spiritual insect can cover up our voices. I don't want others to hear what I said today."
"Old Master, just give me your orders." Xu Fu was slightly startled, then lowered his head and responded.
"There are only two of us here, so you don't have to pretend, come and sit." Shi Bu Zhuan said calmly.
Such an ordinary sentence shocked Xu Fu, and he was stunned for a moment.
"As soon as I saw you learning boxing, I knew that you were also a martial artist. It's really the only time in my life that you can hide your cultivation so well. I don't ask where you come from. I just want to know how you came to the Shi family. Purpose." Although Shi Buzhuan's voice was calm, it went straight to Xu Fu's heart.
Xu Fu was dumbfounded and didn't know how to respond.
"If it's not convenient for you to say it, then don't say it, but as long as you say it, I hope that what you hear is the truth." Shi Bujuan saw that Xu Fu did not speak, and did not show any dissatisfaction.
"Old Master, I...I..." Xu Fu didn't expect that the former head of the Shi family would notice that he was pretending to be so serious, and he immediately panicked. Shi Bu Zhuan asked him the purpose of coming. There was no answer at all. Did he still tell Shi Bu Zhuan that I came to steal your treasure?
"You just need to answer me, are you here to harm the Shi family?" Shi Buzhuan stared at Xu Fu with burning eyes. Although he looked older, his eyes were still clear, as if he could understand everything.
"No." Xu Fu replied frankly, looking into Shi Buhuan's eyes. Xu Fu figured it out. Since the other party had seen through his intention to hide, but did not move to capture him immediately, there must be some other reason. There was no need to be overly nervous at this time.
"But someone assigned you to come to the Shi family?"
"No."
"Did you fall in love with something from the Shi family?"
Xu Fu hesitated after hearing this, and this hesitation could be regarded as having answered Shi Buzhuan's question.
Shi Bujuan smiled slightly and continued: "It's not like I can't give you what you want."
"what?"
Xu Fu's expression changed slightly. Could it be that Shi Bu Zhuan had guessed it?
"I won't beat around the bush anymore. You just need to agree to do one thing for me. I will give you what you want!" Shi Buhuan said seriously, and the aura he exuded unintentionally was inexplicably convincing.
"what's up?"
Seeing that the stone did not turn, Xu Fu seemed to be lying to himself, so he decided to ask what to do first.
"I want you to take Xiaojiu away from the Shi family!" Shi Buzhuan took a deep breath and said.
"Xiaojiu?" Xu Fu was slightly surprised.
"It's Shi Jiu'an who taught you Dragon Tiger Fist last night."
After Xu Fu talked about Shi Jiu'an's confrontation, he began to wonder what "leaving the Shi family" meant?
"The Shi family has actually been controlled by outsiders. It is no longer the Shi family before." After asking two more reasons, Shi Bujuan answered frankly.
When Shi Buzhuan said this, he originally thought that Xu Fu would have any special reaction, but found that Xu Fu remained calm and apparently not surprised.
"You already know?" Shi Bujuan narrowed his eyes and asked very vigilantly.
Seeing Shi Bumo's expression, Xu Fu hurriedly explained all the inferences he had made from the clues he discovered during the food tasting. Since this hometown leader entrusted him with important tasks, Xu Fu knew that he should dispel all suspicions of the other party.
"Sure enough, he has a delicate mind!" Shi Buzhuan praised with appreciation, sighing in his heart that it would be great if such a brave and resourceful young talent could be a descendant of the Shi family.
"Senior, thank you for the prize. Hasn't the eldest lady already decided to compete in a competition to find a bride? Why do you still want me to take her away?"
"This is just a plan by those people. They are trying to use sorcery to make the world's masters worship them as masters. But I don't know what their ultimate purpose is."
"If that's the case, why do you still agree to compete in martial arts to recruit a bride?" Xu Fu asked in confusion.
"Originally, both Qingshan and I thought this was a way to protect Xiao Jiu, but later they discovered the wolfish ambitions of these people. They were simply using Xiao Jiu as bait. It's ridiculous that the Shi family's boxing skills are world-famous, but in the end, they even protect their own children and grandchildren. Don’t stop!”
"Aren't you afraid that I am one of them?" Xu Fu still had some doubts about Shi Bujuan's trust. If it were him, he would never entrust such an important task to a stranger.
"If you were with them, there would be no need to infiltrate like this. Of course, this is just my speculation. If there was time, I would naturally not come to you in such a hurry. Now that the situation is urgent, I can only take a gamble. Shi Buzhuan said helplessly.
"As long as you promise me, this eighth-grade elixir will be yours!" Shi Bujuan then took out a jade bottle from his body and handed it to Xu Fu.
"Do you really trust me?" Xu Fu said flattered without raising his hand. Looking at the jade bottle, Xu Fu swallowed hard. Although he also wanted the elixir, he had something more important to get at this time.
"For so many years, I have rarely made mistakes. Since you haven't received the elixir yet, I bet you can keep your promise!" Shi Bujuan said firmly, and handed the elixir in front of his eyes.
"This is not what I want." Xu Fu glanced at the jade bottle, then raised his head to look at the burly old man, and said calmly.
"Is it possible that you want the 'dragon roars and the tiger roars'?" Shi Bujuan frowned and said, "Those two magical weapons need to be supplemented by my Shi family's skills to exert their maximum power. I'm afraid they are not suitable for you, right?"
"I don't want 'dragons roaring and tigers roaring' either." Xu Fu asked carefully: "If you think about it again, are there no other treasures in this house?"
"Little brother, can you tell me clearly?" Shi Buhuan thought for a while, but still didn't expect what Xu Fu wanted, so he simply asked directly.
"I want the Earth Spirit Treasure." Xu Fu didn't beat around the bush anymore. He could feel Shi Bu Zhuan's sincerity, and he decided to take a gamble.
"Earth Spiritual Treasure?" Shi Bujue showed a confused look, and then said with great certainty: "The Shi family does not have this treasure."
"If you think about it again, a bead as big as this contains rich earth spiritual power." Xu Fu said while gesturing, his tone slightly anxious.
"Little brother, there really aren't any. There are some spiritual objects that contain the spiritual power of earth, but they are not beads." Shi Bujuan sighed slightly.
Xu Fu was like a deflated rubber ball, his expression suddenly dimmed. For the sake of his granddaughter, Shi Bujuan was even willing to take out eighth-grade spiritual pills and ancestral weapons. He would never deliberately conceal the Earth Elemental Spiritual Treasure. In this case, he really did not know the whereabouts of the Earth Elemental Spiritual Treasure.
"Since this treasure is not in Shi Mansion, what are your plans, little brother?" Seeing Xu Fu's appearance, Shi Bu Zhuan suddenly asked in a deep voice.
"Keep looking." Xu Fu responded weakly.
"Let me ask, what do you want with this Earth Spirit Treasure?"
"Help."
"Save whose life?"
"Save my life."
Shi Buzhuan was startled for a moment, and then he understood. No wonder the young man in front of him wanted to risk sneaking into Shi's house to find this treasure. No wonder he was not tempted by the eighth-grade elixir.
"How did the little brother determine that this Earth Elemental Spiritual Treasure was in the Shi family?" Shi Bujuan suddenly thought of something and asked.
"I have a treasure that I can sense, but something may have gone wrong this time." Xu Fu replied very dejectedly.
The frustration in Xu Fu's heart was indescribable. It would be fine if there was no clue. This feeling of having just ignited a little hope and then being extinguished all at once was like being hit hard on the head and going blank.
"Hearing what you said reminds me of a place." Shi Bujuan said suddenly.
Xu Fu raised his head suddenly, waiting for Shi Bu Zhuan to say more.
"Where?"
Seeing that Shi Buturn didn't speak for a long time, Xu Fu asked anxiously.
"Does what I said before count? As long as I get the treasure you want, you can take Xiaojiu away?" Shi Buzhuan asked.
"It will count! Of course it will count!" Xu Fu agreed hastily.
"You have to protect her."
"As long as I live, nothing will happen to her!"
"We still need to find a good home for her..."
Xu Fu was stunned when he heard this and didn't understand what the old man meant.
"Still..."
"Old Master! You are going a bit too far!"
Xu Fu's expression had changed at this time. This old man who had been calm and dignified since he walked in seemed to suddenly become verbose and fussy.
"I might as well help her take care of the children again!" Xu Fu said slightly angrily.
"That's best!"
Shi Buzhuan chuckled and breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "You are still young and don't understand the importance of being married every other generation. If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't protect myself, I would definitely not come to beg you."
"As long as you give me the Earth Spirit Treasure, we can discuss everything else. If I can't protect myself, then no one will care!"
Xu Fu's words were unceremonious, and he also explained to Shi Buzhuan that this was a transaction. Since it was a transaction, it had to be "paid with one hand and delivered with the other hand." Without "money", the transaction would not be possible. Xu Fu also emphasized his purpose of wanting this earthly treasure. This was a life-threatening thing and there was no room for error.
"You should stay with her more these days and wait for news from me."
After Shi Bu Zhuan said this, he stood up without waiting for Xu Fu's answer, took his "cricket" gourd, and strode away.
Just wait?
After this conversation with Shi Buzhuan, Xu Fu didn't know what to do at this time. Compared to himself, it was naturally easier for Shi Buzhuan to find the Lingbao. If he couldn't find it, it would only mean that the Lingbao was not there at all. here.
Looking at the four great spiritual treasures glowing with light, Xu Fu felt a little at ease. Since the matter has come to this, it is better to wait for a few days. Even if the spiritual treasures cannot be found, then let's take a look at the things that Shi Buhuan said about controlling the Shi family. What do you want to do?
As a result, Xu Fu lived a happy life in Shi's house. During the day, he would either go to the kitchen to "test dishes", stay in the house and sleep, or wander around Shi's house. Naturally, he would go to Shi Jiu'an to practice boxing at night. , but suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
After calming down, Xu Fu was naturally making rapid progress in the practice of Dragon and Tiger Fist. Even the talented Shi Jiu'an was amazed by Xu Fu. Xu Fu couldn't tell the truth, so he naturally excused himself by saying "he taught well". past. He also understood the reason why Shi Buteng asked him to come to Shi Jiu'an, which was just to make her happy.
For six consecutive days, in addition to Shi Xiu's daily visits, Shi Buzhuan also came twice. Each time, he would bring one or two spiritual objects for Xu Fu to tell whether they were earthly spiritual treasures. Unfortunately, the four spiritual treasures in Xu Fu's arms No reaction at all.
Seeing the martial arts competition approaching, Xu Fu clearly felt that Shi Jiu'an became a little uneasy. From time to time, he would sit aside in a daze. He even lost interest in practicing boxing with Xu Fu. He ended the last day of training hastily and handed over After a few words, he left alone.
Xu Fu couldn't bear to see Shi Jiu'an so disappointed. When he was debating whether to tell her Shi Buzhuan's plan, suddenly a black shadow fell from mid-air, and an iron fist came straight to Xu Fu's door.
The punch came suddenly, and Xu Fu was distracted again. He was not prepared at all, but subconsciously raised his arm to block.
Only after blocking did he realize that the power contained in this punch was astonishing. At that moment, he didn't dare to hold back anymore, and punched him in the chest with full force.
The black figure made a move to block it, but was still pushed back two steps by Xu Fu.
As soon as the black figure stood firm, a cry of "cricket" rang out.
"Old Master, are you afraid of crippling me with such a heavy blow?" Xu Fu said with some dissatisfaction.
"If I don't test your depth, how can I safely leave my granddaughter to you." Shi Bujuan pulled off the black cloth from his face and said with a slight smile.
"You'd better not leave it to me. You didn't give me what I wanted." Xu Fu said coldly, "Our previous agreement has not yet been fulfilled."
"So I came to see you tonight."
"What are you looking for me for?"
"Take you somewhere, follow me!"
After Shi Buzhuan said this, he stepped aside and his whole body swept aside. His burly figure looked particularly light at this moment.
Xu Fu did not dare to neglect and quickly used his body skills to keep up.
Like two house rats that came out to look for food at night, the two of them walked quietly through the corridor and soon came to a well.
"This is..." Xu Fu asked quickly when he saw Shi Buzhuan staring at the mouth of the well.
Before Xu Fu could say these words, he saw Shi Bu Zhuan jumping in.
Xu Fu hurriedly leaned over to take a look. It was pitch dark inside and he couldn't see anything. Moreover, Shi Buhuan jumped down and didn't hear the sound of water.
When Xu Fu saw this, he no longer hesitated and jumped down like a stone. He didn't know how deep the well was, which made Xu Fu very uneasy.
Not long after he was uneasy, Xu Fu stepped on the bottom of the well. Xu Fu was startled and fell directly to the ground.
Xu Fu looked up and found that it was only four or five feet deep from the mouth of the well, which was not as scary as he thought.
At this time, a fire suddenly lit up, and Shi Buhuan was seen holding a fire stick in his hand, waving to Xu Fu from the edge of the well.
