Chapter 157 (1/2)

Andersen stood up straighter and stretched, sweat running down his back.

These four blind people deserved to die, and encountering this kind of d.a.m.nable person, peaceful fighting, would never have any good intentions.

All of his kind thoughts shouldn't have been given to such a person, not a single bit.

He turned and went into the house without lighting the lamp.

The guards were four blind men, who never turned on the lights even in the darkest of nights.

Maybe from somewhere in the distance where you could see it, someone was watching to see if any lights were going on.

The moment the lights were lit up, it proved that the four blind men were already dead.

An Zhan's reaction was one of acc.u.mulating enough experience, yet he had unwittingly saved himself once again.

As soon as An Zeng entered the room, he saw the candlestick with the help of the dim moonlight after the dark clouds had dispersed.

However, he didn't light it up. Thus, the candle made from the poisonous substance had no way to release the poisonous gas.

The room was simple, with only a few large boxes.

After a moment of silence, An Zui did not open the few boxes.

It was because these boxes were too obvious, just like the candlesticks on the surface.

Who were those four blind people?

When they were in the Da Xi region, they had created a killing sp.a.w.n that could wipe out sixteen families in a row, making them extremely greedy.

So, if these big chests really had priceless items, would the four blind people just stay here and guard them?

The four of them had probably already escaped with their belongings.

Based on their many years of hiding, even the people from the Great Xi Empire were difficult to find, so it wasn't easy for Li Changlu to find them.

There were actually candles in the candlesticks in the four blind people's houses. It was obviously a little strange.

The lesson of the struggle was that no matter how curious one was, they would never touch things that didn't make sense.

Some people couldn't help but open the crates out of curiosity even when they thought they might be bait or trap them.

Therefore, the mechanism in the box would instantly kill the person who opened the box.

He turned away from the house and did not linger a minute longer.

He was such an irrationality, but it was based on common sense.

The four blind men must have no idea where Li Changlu had hidden his things.

And, if nothing else, the four blind men must have gone through all the rooms.

he thought, and began to look around.

At this moment, he saw the not-so-large fake mountain in the courtyard.

The rockery appeared somewhat rough and was obviously newly piled up. When they came close to the rockery, An Zhe couldn't help but laugh.

This Li Changlu was really bullying people.

It was precisely because the four could not see that he had so blatantly piled up his things in the courtyard and then piled up some stones outside.

There was a small hole behind the rockery where a person could enter with his head bowed.

The rockery was in the yard. If everything was hidden in the rockery, how did Li Changlu hide it from the blind men?

Those blind people couldn't see it, but their senses must be extremely sensitive.

It was … An Zhe suddenly understood.

After Li Changlu had hidden his belongings in the rockery, he invited the four blind men to watch over him.

Since the arrival of these four blind men, Li Changlu had not entered the rockery once.

Each yard contained only a few things, which Li Changlu no longer looked at, so that he could ensure that the guards did not steal.

Anjou picked up a rock and threw it in, and there was a hollow echo from inside.

Then, An Zhe pushed a ma.s.s of cultivation power inside. The cultivation power slightly exploded in the fake mountain, but it didn't cause any reaction.

Only after trying did he bend over and enter the fake mountain.

The s.p.a.ce inside was not big. It was only about two to three meters, and it was also very low.

It was empty, and even though the light was dim, he could feel it.

Then, An Zhe suddenly reacted and couldn't help but have a whole new level of respect for Li Changlu's methods.

He looked around, and to the left of him, a rock stood out a little.

An Zaiyue knew that his time was limited, so he did not dare to waste too much time. He picked up the rock that was around one meter in length, put it into the Blood Pearl bracelet s.p.a.ce, and then quickly retreated.

An Zaiyue crossed the streets and alleys, purposely circling around before returning to the Heavenly Awakening Sect.

Entering his own room, An Zhe lit up the lamp and took out the stone from the Blood Pearl bracelet.

Indeed.

An Zhan muttered to himself.

The surface of this big stone was glued together by the stone sh.e.l.l.

The stone sh.e.l.l was also known as the Jade Robe. It was a layer of stone that was wrapped around the spirit stones. It was extremely st.u.r.dy and sealed, which was why it was the stone gambling industry.

If one were to see through what was inside the jade robe, there would be no more stone gambling.

Li Changlu collected the cut off jade clothes and stuck them together once again, sealing the treasures within.

In this way, Yu Yi sealed the aura of the treasure, so no matter how sharp the senses of the four blind people were, they wouldn't be able to detect it.

There were no stone knives, but there were plenty of good things.

He took out the Grief Sword from the s.p.a.ce of the Blood Feather Pearl's bracelet. This was a gift from Xu Meidao. He had traded it for the Red Luan hairpin from before the dispute had begun.

The reason why the sword was so powerful was not only because it was a purple-grade divine artifact, but also because it contained the sword intent of the creator of Skyfire Palace.

With a sad sword, Angang cut the stone again, then had to look at Li Changlu in a new light.

It must have been Li Changlu himself who had reclaimed the rock. Before the Nether Realm had attempted to a.s.sa.s.sinate the Duke of Yan and the Empress Dowager at Empyrean, the Empress Mother had said that Li Changlu's ability at appraising treasures was extraordinary.

Whether it was glue or something else, the layers of rock were all weak, and the scent of treasure could be released from these cracks.

But Li Changlu was not using glue or ordinary things, but was using a piece of melted jade.

In other words, Li Changlu had at least one pill furnace or cauldron of a very high grade in his hands.

He would use the pill furnace or the cauldron to burn the cut jade clothes into magma and then pour them back into the furnace. This way, the stone layer would no longer have any cracks and the energy inside would not leak out.

An Zaihai's hand was very steady, and his sword was also very sharp. The layers of stone were cut off one by one, and no one knew just how many things were hidden within such a large rock.

About ten minutes later, the stone floor was completely peeled off by An Zhe. There was an iron box inside.

An Zeng used at least another twenty minutes to clear all the stone layers. Then, he used his Dark Sword to cut open the seal on the iron chest.

An aura somewhat familiar to An Zeng was released from the box, and An Zhe instantly thought of something.

scales of saint-fish, saint-fish, saint-fish, saint-fish, saint-fish, saint-fish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish, sainfish

The first thing he saw after he opened the chest was a piece of the scales of the Sacred Fish lying quietly in the very back of the chest.

Obviously, Li Changlu didn't know what the scales of the holy fish were, so he put them away together as if they were ordinary objects.

Actually, even until now, he still had no idea what the Sage Fish Scale was used for.

Judging from the position of the items in the box, the scale of the holy fish should not be attached to the innermost corner.

An Zhe carefully kept the scale, and unknowingly collected four.
