Give the world of mixed martial arts a little bit of the shock of the Thunderbolt Monk
Chapter 281 The show begins
"Don't use it? Why can't you use it?"
Hu Tiehua didn't understand this. Aren't flares used to call for help in emergencies? Why did Mingjian Juesai suggest Chu Liuxiang not to use them?
"I didn't understand either. It seemed like he was saying there was something wrong with the flare made by Tianji Xianchang."
Anyway, when Tianji gave Chu Liuxiang the new version of the flare that he couldn't sell, Mingjian Juesai said to Chu Liuxiang in a serious face that if he really encountered danger, in order to be decent in the end, he should not use the flare given by Tianji.
Chu Liuxiang: What does this have to do with dignity?
Mingjian Jueshi: Because there is a high probability that you will fall into a big dye vat in the end. If you don’t use flares, at least your body will be clean.
Chu Liuxiang:?
“I didn’t understand it in the end anyway.”
The flare that Tianji gave to Chu Liuxiang had been improved and shrunk, and its overall size was about the same as a fire starter. Even if Chu Liuxiang did not have the abilities of a mustard seed or the universe in his sleeves, he could still carry this new type of flare and go.
Perhaps this little gadget was too confusing, Chu Liuxiang couldn't figure out how it would send out signals. But he didn't doubt the function of this thing. Xiantian people had many magical things in their hands, and he only needed to know how to turn on the signal flare.
"but……"
Chu Liuxiang looked around. The two of them were now in a completely enclosed room. In this environment, they didn't know whether the flare could reach the outside.
"This doesn't look like a good place to show off your skills."
"I agree with this."
Hu Tiehua couldn't help rubbing his nose. He smelled many strange scents, some of which were incense, and some of which were wine. But he knew from the smell that these were high-end goods, and the person they were about to meet was also a very particular person.
Although these scents were pleasant, they were all somewhat unfamiliar. Hu Tiehua had never smelled any of them before. Even among the innate people he knew, he could hardly find any similar scents.
Following the lead of the person in front, the two felt that they were moving further down and deeper, and the light sources around them also began to gradually dim, as if they had entered a secret room.
"We won't be caught in a trap by the other side, right?"
If it was an ordinary underworld conspiracy, and someone wanted to trap them in a secret room or a secret passage, Hu Tiehua would not be afraid. After all, he had been in the underworld for almost ten years, and there were so many people who wanted to catch them, but they all failed in the end.
But if the person who did this was a congenital person, then Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua would be in trouble. These people are not only ridiculously strong, but also have a variety of methods. At least they can hide in a fight, but if the other party practices magic, then if a formation is thrown at them, neither of them will be able to escape.
Thinking about Ji Bingyan who had been taken hostage in the past, and then looking at the walls around him that had no windows and were sealed tightly, if the other party wanted to take the two of them hostage, Hu Tiehua could not think of a way to escape safely.
"Then we can only think of a way to save our lives first."
If this was true, Chu Liuxiang couldn't think of a solution. They hadn't even seen the other party yet, so they couldn't jump to conclusions.
However, through observations of the surroundings on the road, Chu Liuxiang could be sure that the other party was not from Mahane's side. He saw many decorations and objects with unique styles, and even the candles used for lighting were very different from what he knew. It could even be said that the style was quite different from that of the Central Plains.
After being in contact with the Xiantian people for so long, Chu Liuxiang already understood their own opera styles. Except for those who were deliberately disguised, most people could easily tell whether this person was good or bad, and who was closer to whom, just by looking at their dressing style.
The style of the decorations around here has deviated from the usual style of the Central Plains. They look more like Western things, but they are more gorgeous and exquisite than the Western goods Chu Liuxiang has seen, and are quite different from all the innate things currently on the table.
"arrive."
After arriving at the destination, the shopkeeper who was leading the way breathed a sigh of relief. Then, without saying anything, he actually retreated, leaving Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua where they were, and ran out quickly himself, as if there was some ferocious beast ahead.
"Boss, can you please tell me where this is?"
Seeing the restaurant owner running back without looking back, Hu Tiehua immediately felt something was wrong and grabbed him by the collar. The restaurant owner was just an ordinary middle-aged man without any martial arts skills. Hu Tiehua was able to freeze him in place with one hand and he could not escape.
It was clearly him who brought the two people here, but now he seemed to be afraid of something and wanted to run away. Anyone could see that there was something wrong with this guy.
"Ah this..."
The shopkeeper didn't expect the other party's hands to be so quick, and he didn't know how to explain for a moment, but he didn't want to do anything, he was just simply afraid of the person in front of him.
He looked at the dark place in front of him because there was no light. Although it was a basement, the place was actually quite spacious. It was just that there was no lighting for some reason, so he couldn't see clearly what was in front of him.
"Well, that... Sir, the person has been brought to you, please take a look..."
There was no other way, the shopkeeper could only bite the bullet and speak out. People outside said that he had found a talented writer, but only he knew that he was clearly found by a demon from nowhere, and was forced to cover up for the other party and obey his orders.
"grown ups?"
When the other party said that the scriptwriter was a genius and yet he was able to keep the news secret in the capital, the two of them thought that the owner of the restaurant was controlled by someone, and those new plays might have been released by the other party to cover up their tracks and as a sweet treat for the restaurant, so that everyone's attention would be on the restaurant and the owner, and the other party would be able to hide without making a sound.
Now, hearing the shopkeeper call the unknown guy "Sir", even if this is not a special title, it can be seen that the other party is not only being controlled, but may also be very afraid of this person.
"Snapped!"
"Ouch!"
At this moment, a force of energy came from nowhere and hit Hu Tiehua's hand that was holding the shopkeeper's collar. The force was not strong, but it caused him to let go of his hand in pain. The shopkeeper broke free from his control, but at this time he did not dare to run away.
Hu Tiehua was ambushed, but Chu Liuxiang didn't care. His gaze turned to the darkness in front of him. The energy just now came from this darkness.
Then another gust of wind blew, but this time it was not an attack. The wind blew up the clothes of the three people, and then there was the crackling sound of flames. The surrounding candles lit up one by one, illuminating the surroundings, and they could finally see what was ahead.
Similar to the previous judgment, this place is indeed very empty, so empty that it doesn't look like an underground secret room. The surroundings are illuminated by strangely shaped candles. There is a screen erected not far in front of the three people. Chu Liuxiang can only see a vague figure behind the screen.
"you can go now."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper's heart pressure suddenly eased, and then he ran away without looking back. From this voice, Chu Liuxiang could only judge that the other party was a young man, and he didn't know anything more.
However, from the few moves just now, he could be sure that the other party was indeed a congenital person, but he was not sure whether he was good or bad, and why he specially called himself and Hu Tiehua here.
"I wonder why you are looking for us two? If it is a difficult case, I have experience."
In the underworld, when it comes to investigating ability, apart from the official Four Famous Detectives, the most famous is Lu Xiaofeng, the successor to Chu Liuxiang. Although one of them has a good friend who is a thief, and the other is a thief himself, which leads to constant troubles for them, most people secretly look for him like this, basically to let him investigate the case.
Chu Liuxiang asked the other party this question based on the standard because the two parties did not know each other at all. He could only use his past experience to start the conversation and see what the other party was going to do.
"I heard that Chu Liuxiang is one of the most famous people in the world, and he is blessed by the destiny. I am just a little curious about what the world is like now."
The candlelight flickered, and the other person's shadow on the screen flickered with it. Chu Liuxiang couldn't see clearly what the other person was doing behind the screen. From the general outline, he felt that the other person should be wearing extremely exaggerated clothes, so that others could not see the figure of the person on the other side of the screen.
"Now you see, I am just a thief who has a sense of loyalty."
Although he didn't know the other person yet, years of experience told Chu Liuxiang that this was definitely a dangerous person and he must not let him become interested in him.
After what happened in the Western Regions, whenever he heard someone say that he was the one favored by destiny, his heart would skip a beat. To the innate people, this title was like a target, the one who destroyed the world first and was favored by destiny.
"A thief can also be favored by the heaven. It seems that we have indeed reached the end of the Dharma era."
"I think the recent operas are also yours, and they are quite leisurely and elegant."
He understood what he heard. This meant that even a thief like him could be favored by the Heaven. The Heaven must be blind. However, in order to escape as soon as possible, Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua endured it as well.
"It's just for fun. It's a pity that the people here have such mediocre taste for scripts. Even if the Dazzler really wants to create for others, the people here are really not qualified."
The person opposite stayed behind the screen, his figure did not move much, and his voice was very calm, giving people a feeling of being unpredictable.
“So we were called here…”
Chu Liuxiang quietly reached his hand into his sleeve, where was the small flare that Tianji had stuffed into his sleeve when he left the Shenhou Mansion. Although this thing looked like a fire starter, it was not one in essence and could not be placed together with a real fire starter.
In order to blend in with the atmosphere of the restaurant, he was wearing wide-sleeved clothes today, so he temporarily placed the flare in the special interlayer of his sleeve so that he could take it out easily.
After the candles were lit, Chu Liuxiang looked around. It was very spacious, with many Western-style decorations. If it was a fully enclosed basement, there would not be such a spacious space, and he did not see any load-bearing pillars.
There are so many candles burning here, but neither he nor Hu Tiehua feel stuffy. The air around them must be circulating. Chu Liuxiang first holds the flare in his hand, and then observes whether there is any place where he can break through.
If the person really has bad intentions, then he won't care what Mingjian Juesai said. If all else fails, he will just throw this thing at the other person's face. According to Tianji, although the amount of this thing has been reduced due to the improvement of its shape, the amount used is still sufficient, enough to be seen from the sky at a glance.
Chu Liuxiang winked at Hu Tiehua, telling him to be ready to run away at any time. However, he didn't expect that even through the screen, the person on the opposite side could still see his movements clearly.
"Why did you come?"
The wind started to blow again, accompanied by the rustling sound of flying papers. A group of flying cards in the air flew out from behind the screen. They had a clear target and flew directly towards Chu Liuxiang, surrounding him.
"What, what is this?"
Chu Liuxiang had never seen such a scene before. The media used in his previous magic to control objects were either Buddhist beads or large-scale flying swords, but he had never seen a large number of cards flying towards him in groups and densely packed.
The only similar thing in his memory was the red tide controlled by the Demon King Zhi Xin, but that one would eat human flesh and blood, and was a million times more terrifying than locusts. Looking at the white wave rushing towards him, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but think of Zhi Xin's red tide, and suddenly got goose bumps all over his body.
However, the purpose of these cards was not to do anything to Chu Liuxiang. Groups of white cards stayed on him for a few moments, then immediately left and returned to the hands of the person behind the screen.
Just as Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua were wondering what these pieces of paper meant, Chu Liuxiang noticed something wrong with his hand. The flare he had just taken out was gone!
Seeing the figure behind the screen reaching out to catch something, Chu Liuxiang realized that the pile of paper pieces flew over to take the flare from his hand.
"Ha, interesting."
Seeing what was in his hand, the person behind the screen laughed.
"Tianji's work. He really likes weird things more and more."
This sentence caught the attention of the two people. The other party knew Tianji, and from hearing this, the two people might be very familiar with each other and should be acquaintances.
But if he was a friend, why did he control a restaurant here which was several streets away from the Shenhou Mansion instead of going to find Tianji before? With his personality, if a friend came, he would definitely welcome him warmly.
Moreover, Chu Liuxiang remembered that at this time, Tianji's relatives and friends should have gone to help the Xihuang Buddhist world fight against the Yama Ghost Prison, and had no time to come here. The last time Tianji tried to get people, he failed.
In this case, the "acquaintance of Tianji" in front of him is probably not a friend, or to be more specific, this person is not on the same side as Zhengdao.
"As for why the Dazzler invited you here, it's just because he wanted you two to watch a good show."
"What drama?"
Chu Liuxiang asked.
"A good play where Buddha and devil are swapped and good and evil have no result."
……
In the Shenhou Mansion, in the courtyard that temporarily sealed off Mie Shixue Guhuang, Yidengchan was concentrating on guarding the barrier, and Shi Tiancang was right behind him. Logically speaking, Yidengchan was the only one staying here, and Shi Tiancang should learn the swordsmanship of the famous swordsman.
However, Shi Tiancang saw that Mingjian Jueshi was not in high spirits and thought that such things should not be rushed, so he asked him to do something else to wake up his mind first. He then came to the place where Mie Shixue Guhuang was temporarily sealed and looked at the formation there.
This magic sword is very old, and no one is familiar with it. Only Shi Tiancang is of the same generation. He came to see the destruction of Shixue Guhuang, and Yidengchan didn't think much about it. With the Buddha Saint here, he might be able to take a break later.
"Yi Ye Shu and the others have gone out to deal with the life-dwelling bird of the madman Tathagata. I don't know if there will be any more accidents."
"If it's just a life-saving bird, it shouldn't be too troublesome."
Shi Tiancang looked up at the sky, and at this moment the white wings were flying in the sky.
This is also a hidden danger that needs to be dealt with. Thinking of this, Shi Tiancang's eyes flashed with viciousness, but Yidengchan didn't see it because he was facing away.
"As long as Xue Gu Huang is still under control, there is still hope."
Shi Tiancang said this, but his fingers were quietly gathering energy in a place where no one was noticing. A trace of sharp energy gathered at his fingertips, and he gently cut open the palm of his hand, and blood oozed out.
It was at this time that the Mie Shixue Guhuang was still shaking violently, alarming Yideng Chan in front of the formation.
"What's going on? This demonic sword..."
