Mystery Leaks

Chapter 334
After lying down for a while, we struggled to get up and set up a simple tent, lit a fire, and after eating dry food, we fell asleep.

After a good night's rest, when I woke up the next day, my physical strength recovered.

This is the benefit of a cultivator. Physical recovery is much faster than ordinary people. If ordinary people go through such consumption, they will not be able to get up today, let alone recover. If they do not die suddenly, they will be fatal.

When we got up in the morning, we took out the folding shovel and started working. These two shovels were sent by Asnalan. They are very useful and can be folded to save space.

Three hours later, a large piece of coagulated blood finally appeared below, and a huge skull slowly emerged as the soil layer was shoveled away.

This thing was really a fake head, it was black, long and thick, like a steel needle, most of it was scorched by the fire python, and a small part remained.

Hu Lai took a look and said, "Be careful, don't get pricked by its hair, it's poisonous, it's a water caterpillar."

I nodded and continued digging, and quickly cleaned out its head. The body was underneath, so I couldn't tell what it looked like.

What made my heart skip a beat was that the place where it was hit was the head, and there was a big hole pierced through. I don't know if it hurt Zongbao.

"So it was hit on the head, I said no matter how much I snorted, I hung up." Hu Lai smiled, seeing my face turned strange, and said: "Don't worry, Chongbao is lucky to be nearby, and it was not destroyed."

"That's good!" I breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, Hu Lai carefully avoided the black hair, reached out to dig underneath, and took out a worm treasure the size of a duck egg, which was yellowish in color like bezoar.

The head was pierced, but it saved the effort to break open the skull.

"Yes, it's complete. It's the fifth one." Hu Lai looked at it carefully and said happily.

I nodded, and immediately took out a wax ball from my bag, and roasted the wax oil with the flaming red lotus.

Hu Lai wiped it down a bit, put the worm treasure under the wax ball, dipped it in the dripping wax oil, wrapped the worm treasure layer by layer, and finally wrapped it with cotton cloth and put it in a wooden box to prevent it from being squeezed.

After collecting the insect treasures, we started to backfill them, and made some marks by the way. The Zongju Institute is interested in the insect corpses. We can tell Wang Jian'an when the time comes.

After marking, we found a small river to wash up, then walked down the river and found a small town near the water.

I asked Hu Lai about his plans for the future, and Hu Lai said, "We're going to do some renovations in the town now. There's an intersection of dark rivers [-] kilometers east from here, where big bugs often appear. Where can we go and wait for rabbits? There will be gains."

I nodded, now we have obtained Wuke Chong Bao, and if we get another one, no matter how poor Huang Mao and Cao Nan's qualifications are, three are enough to make them become cultivators, otherwise they will fall into the prestige of Chong Bao .

As soon as I approached the town, I immediately turned on my mobile phone. After more than 20 days, I finally got a mobile phone signal.

"Buzzing..." The phone has been vibrating non-stop since it came into contact with the communication signal. At first glance, it was full of missed calls and unread text messages.

Click on it to see that Huang Mao had 21 missed calls and three text messages, and Cao Nan had [-] missed calls and five text messages.Wang missed nine calls and three text messages, and the third uncle missed eight calls and two text messages.

Even Feng Daniu had two missed calls.

In addition, there were three unfamiliar numbers, one of which was called from BJ, it was very special, it should be called by Meng Shuisheng.Click to open it, and the text messages are all asking what happened, whether it is safe or not, and I feel a little warm when I read it.

Hu Lai followed suit, and the result was the same, it kept ringing.

Finally, I clicked on a text message from an unknown number, which said: Your identity has been leaked, be careful.

My heart skipped a beat, and I took a closer look at the number. It turned out to be the number with the asterisk. It asked me to protect the Longjing lock before, saying that the dragon raised its head, and the magic dragon had awakened.

Obviously, the identity he mentioned was the identity of the guardian.Because the other identities are public and have not been deliberately concealed.

I couldn't help but whisper in my heart, the asterisk number actually knew my identity, and also knew that my identity had been leaked.

How does it know?
So far, only I and Hu Lai know about this matter. If Wang Jian'an knows, he guessed it, and I didn't make it clear.

Could it be that Wang Jian'an has already reported the identity of his spirit guardian to the Zongjiao Office?And the asterisk number, as guessed before, is also from the high-level of the Zongjiao?

I couldn't help but feel nervous, because I didn't know what kind of impact this would have. The asterisk number was also in the cloud, and I couldn't determine the source and identity.

Hu Lai saw that my expression was different, and said, "What's the matter?"

So I showed Hu the text message, and Hu Lai's face changed slightly, and he also asked in doubt: "How does it know, only the two of us know exactly about the spirit guardian?"

I shook my head, unable to figure out the joints, so I had to infer that the asterisk number might come from the higher-ups of the religious institute.

"It's not that simple. Wang Jian'an doesn't look like the kind of person who betrays people." Hu Lai shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it might be cheating you."

"Trick me?"

My heart lightened slightly, and there was indeed such a possibility.

I don't know what channel, the asterisk number vaguely guessed about me, so I used this kind of text message to trick me, so as to confirm my identity.

This kind of possibility exists completely, and it will get twice the result with half the effort.

If Hu Lai's guess is correct, then the other party is too insidious, and he is making a fool of himself.

After thinking about it, I directly edited a text message: What kind of identity leak, to be clear, I hate cloudy conversations.

After showing it to Hu Lai, Hu Lai nodded and sent it over.

The mobile phone prompts the other party to receive it.

After a pause, the phone vibrated, and it replied, with only five words: You understand, why play dumb.

"Damn it!" I cursed in a very firm tone.

"Don't pay attention to it, as long as it doesn't exactly point out that you are the guardian of the spirit, it will think it is tricking you." Hu Lai said.

I nodded heavily, edited and sent another text message, which was more concise than this one: I'm busy, I don't have time to talk nonsense.

One or two minutes after receiving the text message, there was no reply from the other side.

Just when I thought it was silent and was about to report safety to Huang Mao, Cao Nan and others, the phone vibrated and it came again.

Click on it, it says: You are not busy now.

A few short words made me shudder, and I hurriedly looked at Siye.

Heck!
How does it know we're not busy?
Could it be that it has been following us and is not human at all?

Hu Lai took a look, followed me and looked around vigilantly, his expression fluctuating.

"What should I do?" I was a little confused for a while.

"Don't worry, let me think about it!" Hu Lai raised his hand, thought for a while and said, "No, it still lied to us, think about it, it sent this text message a week ago, and you haven't replied to it, so it naturally It knew that it was busy, and even knew that you were chasing the big bug, and now you have time to return to it, which means that the killing of bugs is over, and we are not busy, just now it paused for two or three minutes, and it was thinking about how to cheat you again."

I'm speechless, this set of Nima is really not ordinary deep.

"Just let it go!" Hu Lai made a decisive decision.

I nodded, typed a few words and sent them: Get out, I'm busy.

Sure enough, it became silent after that, and there was no reply after waiting for half an hour.

"Sure enough, I'm trying to trick you." Hu Lai said.

With lingering fears in my heart, I secretly scolded this bastard for his routines. If it wasn't for the nonsense guidance, I would have almost given up on myself.

"It seems that Wang Jian'an didn't reveal your identity, or this guy didn't come from the Zongjiao." After a pause, Hu Lai analyzed.

I nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. Before I figured out the interests of the spirit guardian, I didn't want everyone to know about it. The ghost knows what taboo and ominous this identity is.

Afterwards, I sent a text message to Huang Mao, Cao Nan, Uncle Wang, and Feng Daniuqun to report their safety.

Cao Nan's phone call came in lightning speed, and Huang Mao was not slow, calling Hu Lai in lightning speed.

"How many insect treasures have you earned?"

The same greeting came from the phone.

Hu Lai and I couldn't help but the corners of our mouths twitched. These two bastards didn't know how to care about our safety, cold or hunger first.

It's so heartless to care about the Chongbao that they take from the beginning!

Looking at each other, Hu Laixin and I have a tacit understanding and said:

"Oh...don't mention it, there isn't even a single one."

"The big worm is very strange, it seems to have died overnight, no."

"What, how did this happen?" There was another same sentence over there, and there was a lot of babbling.

Hu Lai and I insisted that there was no Chongbao, we chatted for a while and hung up, anxious to death these two heartless guys.

"Let's go, go to the town to repair, buy some things, rest overnight, and we will start tomorrow." Hu Lai greeted, and we walked towards the town.

……

After resting overnight, we continued on our way.

We bought a motorcycle directly with money, filled a few barrels of gasoline, and headed east all the way. In the afternoon, we arrived at the intersection of Dihe, [-] kilometers to the east.

I was taken aback, it turned out to be a desert.

No one would believe that under this already semi-desert wilderness, there are several rivers converging for several days, and its water flow is no less than that of the Yangtze River and Yellow River on the surface.

But the water vapor of the underground river buried deep underground is completely impenetrable, otherwise this desert would not exist at all.

We camped on the spot and lit a bonfire after nightfall. The desert area is very hot during the day and very cold at night, and we cannot survive the night without fire.After eating the dry food, Hu Lai opened a flat Erguotou bottle and took a sip, then handed it to me: "Will you warm up with some wine?"

I took it, took a sip, and the hot wine flowed into my stomach, and it was like swallowing a ball of fire.

Breathing out the smell of alcohol, reflecting the bonfire in front of me, my heart moved, and I slowly stretched out my hand. With a thought, there was a sound of "poof", and a ball of flames burst into the palm of my hand.

Soon, the flame immediately began to shrink, forming the shape of a precious lotus seat.

And then... the first petals bloomed!

The second petal, followed by the third.

Then came the fourth petal, the fifth petal, and the sixth petal.

During the half month of being "under house arrest" by Lei Xiaotian and several days on the road, I just practiced the fire red lotus without doing anything, and I never relaxed.

Because this style will be a qualitative improvement for me, because it is a real magic technique, which can not only attack, but also defend.

It has been nearly three and a half weeks since I left Jinpen Township, and I finally stabilized the flaming red lotus at the sixth petal.

As long as the seventh petal is in full bloom, the first form of the blazing red lotus will be introduced, and if you spend time to shorten the time, you can use it in battle.The current self can already bloom four petals in one breath, and only the fifth petal will be blocked.

These are things that practice makes perfect, just practice.

The most important thing now is to bloom the seventh petal of the fire lotus and gather together the fiery red lotus.

"That's right, it's almost successful!" Hu Lai said with a smile after taking a sip of his wine.

I took a deep breath, calmed my mind, and exhausted my whole body's thoughts... Slowly, the seventh petal was like a blooming lotus, slowly peeled off from the tip of the flower, and turned back.

little by little... little by little...

I don't know how long it has been, "Om!"

The fiery red lotus glowed brightly, and suddenly a circle of flames spread out, forming a fiery red barrier within one meter around him, and making a buzzing sound.

Even the fire in front of him was pushed away.

"I'll go, this technique is awesome!" Hu Lai stared blankly at Huo Lian, unaware that the bottle in his hand was broken, and the wine spilled out and ignited his pants.

When I saw it, I was taken aback immediately, Honglian was unsteady and went out with a "poof" along with the barrier.

"Nonsense, your ass is on fire!"

"Oh, what the hell!!"
