Beautiful mayor's wife

"You are really lucky!" Jin Tianwei said enviously.

"I searched the area for a hundred miles, and I dug almost three feet into the ground, but I didn't find any other traces of the red flame fruit." Ma Xiaoyao said regretfully.

"Red Flame Fruit is a sacred object of heaven and earth. If you can find one, you are already lucky. You actually want a second one? You are so infatuated!" Jin Tianwei's face twitched a few times.

"The emperor's lesson is that I am too infatuated." Ma Xiaoyao looked taught.

"What are you doing in the Ghost Forest?" Jin Tianwei continued to ask.

"Oh, I came to the ghost forest to find a kind of herb."

"What herbs?"

"Thousand leaf grass, used to refine healing elixirs."

"You are hurt?"

"Yes, something went wrong when I was practicing, which caused a slight injury to my body, and I need to recuperate."

……

The two asked and answered each other, and cooperated very tacitly.

"Who are they?" Jin Tianwei glanced at Ouyang Zilan and the others.

"Friends, they also need Qianyecao, so we came together and took care of each other on the way." Ma Xiaoyao said hastily.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise ahead.

Jin Tianwei turned his head in surprise, seeing a group of people forcibly breaking through the outer wall of the stone pagoda, and then rushing in, Jin Tianwei was anxious and rushed over quickly, the treasure inside the stone pagoda must not be caught by others first!

"Finally left!" Ma Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, just now Jin Tianwei's aggressive questioning put a lot of pressure on Ma Xiaoyao.

"Those people broke into the stone pagoda, and there was no danger." Ouyang Zilan said: "Let's go in too, if we go in late, the baby will be robbed!"

"go!"

Ma Xiaoyao made a decisive decision and led everyone to run towards the stone pagoda. The closer you are to the stone pagoda, the more shocking Ma Xiaoyao feels. At this moment, the sky is already bright, and under the sunlight, the stone pagoda emits a bright light like glass. It looks dreamlike and beautiful.

The person who built this stone tower is definitely not an ordinary person!

It is really unexpected that a majestic stone tower was burned out by a big fire!

After entering the stone pagoda, Ma Xiaoyao and the others had a difficult time, should they go up?Or go down?Because the stone tower only reveals half of the body, the upper half of the body is exposed in the air, and the lower half of the body is buried deep in the ground. At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao and others are in the middle of the stone tower.

"The most important treasure must be placed on the top floor of the stone tower, let's go up." Ouyang Zilan suggested.

Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "No! I think it's safer to go down there."

"Why?" Ouyang Zilan didn't understand.

"Look." Ma Xiaoyao stretched out his finger to the front: "Most people are going up, there are a lot of people, the competition will be fierce, we are not strong, if we take the initiative to participate, we will definitely invite murder... On the contrary, there will be fewer people going down there, and the competition will be lighter. As long as we are careful, we should be able to protect ourselves."

"I agree with Lord Ma's point of view." Hu Yandong nodded.

"I also agree with Mr. Ma's point of view." Ouyang Wuwei also nodded.

"But...but the most important treasure is on it..." Ouyang Zilan was a little unwilling: "It's a pity to just give up like this!"

"Hehe..." Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Why do you think that all the good things are on it? What if it's not?"

"Look at everyone running up..."

"Don't look at others, follow your own heart."

"But……"

"Baby is good, of course, but our lives are better! As I said, there are many people above, and the competition will definitely be fierce. If we charge up with the strength of the few of us, we will only become lambs under the knife."

"...Okay, if you say go down, go down, I'll listen to you."

In this way, Ma Xiaoyao led Ouyang Zilan and others to the bottom of the stone pagoda.

There is a stone staircase on each floor. Probably because it has been closed for too long, the stairs are covered with dust. If you step on it, you will leave a deep footprint. Inlaid with a fist-sized luminous pearl, the light emitted by the luminous pearl illuminates the entire space extraordinarily brightly.

"It's such a big night pearl. If it is put up for auction, it will definitely fetch a sky-high price." Ouyang Zilan's eyes were a little blurred.

Ma Xiaoyao looked up, then shook his head: "Two-thirds of Ye Mingzhu's body is inlaid in the stone cracks. If I read correctly, there is also molten iron in the gaps around Ye Mingzhu, which is tightly adhered to the stone. Together, if you dig it out forcibly, the Ye Mingzhu will definitely shatter."

"So...we can't get this luminous pearl?" Ouyang Zilan was full of disappointment.

Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "It's really hard to get."

"Oh...it's a pity that such a good Ye Mingzhu... Huh? There are words on the wall over there!" Ouyang Zilan suddenly pointed to the east and shouted.

Ma Xiaoyao looked in the direction Ouyang Zilan pointed, and he saw three characters engraved on the opposite wall, which were tadpole scripts from ancient times: "Senior Huyan, I'm sorry to trouble you!" Among them, only Huyandong familiar tadpole text.

Hu Yandong stepped forward a few steps, stared at the three characters on the wall for a while, and then read: "29...this is a number..."

"29? What do you mean?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned.

"I think it's the number of floors of the stone tower..." Ouyang Wuwei said, "Our location should be the No.20 nine-story stone tower."

"Well, that should be the meaning." Hu Yandong nodded.

"It's very easy to verify. Just go to the next floor to find out. If there is a number on the next floor, and it is 28, then my grandfather is right." Ouyang Zilan is quite smart.

"Don't be in a hurry to go down." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "Let's search this floor carefully to see if there are any treasures." As soon as he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao raised his feet and began to search in the stone pagoda.

Ouyang Zilan and the others were not idle either. They spread out and wandered around the stone tower. The dark corners were the places they paid special attention to.

After more than ten minutes, several people met.

"How about it?"

"Nothing."

"I didn't find anything either..."

"It is estimated that it was searched and taken away by the people in front."

"Since there is nothing, let's go to the next floor."

……

Several people walked down the stairs to the next floor.

"Look, there are also words on the east wall."

"28... really 28..."

"It really made my grandfather right."

"So... there are 20 floors below? It's incredible... Who built such a stone tower? What's the purpose?"

"It's empty here, and there's nothing there. It's probably being preempted by the people in front again."

"Let's go, let's go down and speed up."

……

Several people went down three floors in a row. When they reached the 25th floor, they saw a group of people fighting inside, and the scene was very hot.

"What's the matter? Why did they fight?"

"Look quickly... There is a long box in the middle of the crowd... Inside the box is... ginseng? It's so big... At least it has ingredients for thousands of years... Maybe it will be longer..."

"No wonder the fight started, it turned out to be for this ginseng plant."

"There are a lot of masters inside, we can't get in at all, let's go to the next floor."

"It's a pity that a ginseng plant..."

……

When a few people walked up the stairs to the 24th floor, they found that there was also a group of people fighting here. This time they were fighting for a sword, which was simple and elegant, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not ordinary.

Several of them are ninth-level fighters, and they are not something that Ma Xiaoyao and others can compete with, so they can only choose to back down.

"Let's go, go to the next floor!"

……

Ma Xiaoyao and the others went down more than a dozen floors in one go. On each floor, a group of people were fighting for all kinds of treasures, including ginseng, swords, knives, cheat books, and pills... all kinds of treasures. There is everything.

This stone tower is like a treasure cave, with extraordinary treasures on each floor.

There is a saying that is good, there are more wolves and less meat!There are many people who break into the stone tower, but there are few treasures, so they can only fight for it. Once the battle starts, there will be casualties, and those with low strength are destined to be eliminated.

When Ma Xiaoyao came to the seventh floor, he found that there was also a group of people here, the number of them was quite large, but instead of fighting, they gathered together and discussed something in a low voice.

Huh?

Why didn't these guys fight?Is there no baby here?Ma Xiaoyao glanced around, and found that the surroundings were empty and indeed there were no treasures, since there were no treasures, why did he stay here?Why don't you hurry to the next floor?

"Xiaoyao, there are no stairs leading to the next floor!" Ouyang Zilan's face suddenly changed.

"There are no stairs?" Ma Xiaoyao was taken aback for a moment, and then patted his forehead: "No wonder I feel something is wrong... So there are no stairs..." At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao also wanted to understand why the group of people on the opposite side stopped fighting. On the one hand, there are no treasures here, on the other hand, the stairs leading to the next floor are missing.

"Is this the last floor?" Ouyang Zilan said softly.

"Did you see the number on the wall? It's a seven. This is the seventh floor. It stands to reason that there are six floors below." Hu Yandong said with a serious face.

"Since there are still six floors, why can't we see the stairs leading down here?" Ouyang Zilan asked.

"I don't know." Hu Yandong shook his head: "It may be removed by someone, or there may be no stairs in the first place."

"Master Ma, what shall we do next?" Ouyang Wuwei asked Ma Xiaoyao for his opinion.

Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Wait and see! Someone is more anxious than us!"

"Since there is no way, let's dig a way!" Someone from the opposite crowd shouted.

"Isn't it good to do this? What if an unknown mechanism is triggered?" Someone objected.

"Bullshit mechanism! We walked all the way, can we see a mechanism?"

"Not seeing it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"Get out of here! If you're afraid, get out of here, because there's just one less person to grab my baby!"

"Okay, I've been yelled at, everyone should hurry up and find a way to go to the next floor, I have an intuition that there must be a very high-level treasure hidden below!"

"Everyone look around, maybe there is some mechanism, as long as you find the mechanism, you can open the passage to the bottom."

"We have searched carefully just now, but we haven't found any mechanism."

"Okay, don't bother, let's dig through the ground! This will save trouble and time!"

"You all get up, let me dig through the ground! You're all twitching and pinching, and you don't feel any pleasure at all! You're all a bunch of hypocrites. When you see the treasures being snapped up one by one, and when you encounter difficulties, you shrink your necks one by one! I despise you!"

"Damn! Be careful what you say!"

"This is how I talk, if you don't accept it, come out and challenge me!"

"Okay, let's not say a few words, the important thing now is to search for treasures, and those who want to fight go out and fight!"

……

After several disputes, it was finally decided to use the most primitive method, which is to cut through the ground.

"Stand back, all of you!" A burly man stepped out. This big man was more than two meters tall, with a thick back and a waist, and a very strong build. The two exposed arms were full of muscles. Two sledgehammers, walking vigorously, very imposing.

Ma Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes, this is a level nine warrior!

"Hi!"

The big man raised the sledgehammer and smashed it hard against the ground.

"Whizzing!"

"boom!!!"

The two sledgehammers hit the ground hard, making a deafening noise, and the whole stone tower seemed to shake a few times.

"Huh? The ground is intact!"

"Damn! This ground is too solid!"

"It looks like it's built of stones, and some places are worn out. I don't see anything special? Why is it so strong?"

……

Listening to the discussions around him, the burly man had an unnatural expression on his face. He boasted just now that he could pierce the ground, but now... no, he must get his face back!The burly man squatted down, swung the sledgehammer with both hands and smashed to the ground again, this time he used all his strength.

"Buzz..."

Two sledgehammers pierced the air and hit the ground like a thunderbolt.

"boom!!!"

There was a loud noise, and the stone pagoda shook a few times. When I looked down, the ground was still intact, not even a single crack could be seen.

"How could this happen?" The burly man was dumbfounded, looking at the ground in a daze: "Impossible...With my strength, even a small mountain can be leveled, but there is nothing I can do with this ground...What the hell is going on? what's going on?"

Not only the burly man was puzzled, but other people were also surprised. They could feel the might of the burly man. It stands to reason that two hammers should be able to smash the ground, but the fact is... the ground is safe. lossless.

"Let me try it!"

Out of the crowd came a man wearing a white gown and a silk scarf on his head. He held a large golden knife in his hand, and a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon was engraved on the blade. This is a precious knife.

"Golden Sword Liu Wu!" Someone recognized the identity of the man holding the golden sword.

"It's him! The golden knife in his hand is an ancestral one. It is said that it is made of meteorites from outside the sky. It is very sharp! It is known as the number one treasured knife in the secret realm!"
