Chapter 21 Mystery

The knife in Ou Peng's hand was like black lightning, with the colorful colors of misty magic, shooting towards the corner of the mysterious small box.

Unfortunately, this lightning was not a real divine night shot from the sky. "Broken Water" fell on the corner of the small box, still making no sound as before. However, something was different this time. The box was surrounded by a layer of brilliance that no one had noticed before. A little overflowing, the knife in Ou Peng's hand actually bounced back, and the knife actually shot towards Ou Peng's face just like before. .

Seeing that the back of "Duanshui"'s knife was about to hit Ou Peng's face, even though it was not the blade, if he was hit, Ou Peng had no doubt that his big head would be cut in half.

Ou Peng is indeed one of the few masters in the world, the head of the Piaomiao Sect. At the critical moment, his feet slipped, and the Piaomiao Sect's secret skill "Piaomiao Step" was immediately used at will. A few colorful black lightning flashed from Ou Peng's forehead, and "Broken Water" took off his hand and shot into the towering stone pillars in the meeting hall. No loud noise was heard. With a "plop" sound, "Broken Water" was inserted deeply, like Insert a piece of tofu.

From the time Ou Peng raised the knife to when the knife was released and inserted into the stone pillar, in just a few breaths, something happened like lightning and flint. Everyone seemed to have no reaction. They looked at the "Broken Water" inserted into the stone pillar and all thought the same thing: "What a fast knife." ah."

Unfortunately, Ou Peng didn't think so at this time. He looked at the few long hairs falling in front of him. They were cut off by "Duan Shui" from the long hair on his forehead just now, and he broke out in a cold sweat. After so many years in the world, I have encountered thrilling situations, but I have never been in danger this time. I am grateful to the founder of the Miao Miao Sect, my master, and this Miao Miao Bu. Without them, I would not be standing right now. Here.

When the rest of the people came to their senses and looked at their gang leader, Ou Peng's earth-colored face had slightly recovered from the blush. He looked at the box on the ground with lingering fear, an ordinary box with crumbs, and said to Zhang Chengyue: " Cheng Yue, put this little box away and put it in the library later. Since we can't open it, let's keep it until we have a chance."

Then, he waved his hand and asked Zhang Chengyue to pick up the small box from the ground.

This Ou Peng is indeed a well-known tycoon in the world. This person has a mind and strategy that are unparalleled by others. If it were another person, he might not put this box in the gang. He would definitely put it in a secret room, secretly ponder it, and keep it to himself. The treasure inside. But as soon as he saw that he couldn't do anything, he immediately let go and gave the opportunity to other people in the gang. This behavior immediately won everyone's praise. In fact, it was this style or method that made him stand out among the six brothers. Those who stand out are those who are promoted to the position of gang leaders by their masters and are admired by their fellow apprentices.

In fact, everyone here knew very well that there was no way to open this box on their own, and perhaps the thousands of people in the gang were also unable to open it. However, the gang leader's behavior was very aboveboard. Go back and think about it carefully, maybe there may be hope.

Later, Ou Peng discussed with everyone about the next gathering mentioned by layman Yanming. Everyone agreed that after receiving such great benefits, the next gathering would definitely not be as simple as the first one. They should wait for the boss and the second child. After returning to the gang, we can discuss it together. Ou Peng thought for a while and agreed. Now that everything was settled, Ou Peng waved his hand and let everyone disperse, leaving only Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing.

Everyone filed out. When they passed by the two, they looked at them happily and nodded to them. They knew that the gang leader was leaving them alone because he was going to give them a reward. This time the harvest was so big, it seems that the two juniors will also get a lot. A good reward.

Everyone left the meeting hall, and Zhang Chengyue and Lao Si came to the library together. The sword manual was naturally placed on the bookshelf. How to put the small box down was a dilemma for Zhang Chengyue. There is no doubt that this box is very precious, but it is useless to offer it. It may not be possible to achieve the gang leader's intention. Finally, the fourth child pointed to the square table next to the bookshelf and said, "Master nephew,

Why don't you leave it there for now and ask your master for instructions later. "Zhang Chengyue felt that this was all he could do for the time being, so he put it on the square table casually. Anyway, everything in and out of the library was recorded, so he was not afraid of losing it. To say the least, even if it was lost, how many people in the world could open it?

Zhang Chengyue and Lao Si left with peace of mind, and this mysterious little box found its home in the Piaomiao Sect's library, waiting for the right person.

In the meeting hall, Ou Peng waited for everyone to leave before he spoke. At this time, his face had changed into the warm smile he usually had when he was outside: "Ah Hai, Qing'er, what you did this time is really great, what do you think?" What reward do you want?"

Wen Wenhai stepped forward and said: "Master, there are still two things that have not been reported. Disciple will tell you now."

Ou Peng nodded in agreement.

Then, Wen Wenhai told Ou Peng what layman Yanming said in the secret place: "The treasures obtained by disciples who perform tasks by chance belong to each other." After listening, Ou Peng's expression remained unchanged and he asked with a smile: "Then what treasure did you get?"

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing came forward, placed the three herbs they obtained from the secret land in front of Ou Peng, and said, "We didn't find any elixirs or weapons, so layman Yanming asked us to pick them individually in the medicine garden. Keep three herbs for yourself.”

Ou Peng said with a smile: "This layman Yanming is a wonderful man. He wanted to get more treasures, but he actually came up with this method and gave a lot of benefits to our disciples. How can we object?"

When Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing heard this, they were stunned and asked hurriedly: "Isn't there such an agreement? Then, this herb?"

Ou Peng said: "It doesn't matter. Since Master Yanming said so, I will give you the benefits. As a master, I have to do favors. It doesn't matter if you just take these things. There are still a lot of these things in the secret land. You guys But let’s take a step first.”

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing were relieved. Although there were many medicinal materials in the secret place, how many could be allocated to disciples like them? Moreover, they also immediately understood what layman Yanming was thinking. Although the treasures in the secret place had been allocated in advance, if the other treasures were left to the disciples according to chance, but with layman Yanming’s martial arts and experience, he Aren't there more opportunities than the disciples of each sect?

Immediately, Ou Peng said again: "You take these medicinal materials to the apothecary hall and ask Hall Master Bai to practice more elixirs for you. It is better than taking these medicines alone. Otherwise, if there is any problem, wouldn't it be a waste of good medicine?" Opportunity?"

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing nodded in agreement.

Ou Peng felt pity for these two disciples and said: "You have brought such a big harvest to the gang this time. It is impossible not to reward them. What rewards do you want?"

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing looked at each other. In fact, they had never thought that this mission was so dangerous and so rewarding before. They just completed it as a very ordinary mission, and they did not think about any rewards in advance, let alone They, this mission was unexpected and Ou Peng did not expect it, so he could not think of a good reward for the time being, so he only asked the disciples twice.

Xue Qing said: "Master, we didn't think so much. The successful completion of this mission depends entirely on the master's planning. Besides, we have also gained a lot of benefits, so we don't need the rewards from the gang."

Ou Peng looked at his two disciples happily and said, "Very good, let's do this. I'll record the reward for now. I'll reward you later if I master or you have good ideas."

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing both agreed with smiles on their faces.

Ou Peng asked again: "One more thing?"

Xue Qing stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Master, it's like this." Then he told the Zhang Cai family that he had left the gang's token.

Ou Peng said: "You two have done a good job. You have to eliminate violence and bring peace to the world with swords. You can be so considerate for ordinary people. As teachers, I should praise you for your good work. Zhang Cai's family can arrange for peace in the critical moment." Being out in public shows its benign nature, and there is no need to worry that the token will be used for other purposes. I very much agree with Qing'er's approach, which is related to your experiences when you were young. How can I punish you as a teacher? Get up, Qing'er."

Xue Qing then stood up.

Then, Ou Peng said: "Ah Hai, Qing'er, you are also tired. Go back and have a good rest. Prepare for the advanced competition in a few days. If you have any questions about your practice, please come and ask me in time."

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing then bowed and left.

When they reached the door of the council hall, Ou Peng suddenly stopped them and asked, "Situ Ping from the Evil Tiger Gang also entered the secret place. Did she also take the three medicinal materials like you?"

Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing looked at each other and replied, "Yes, but we are leaving first. I don't know how they will deal with it."

Ou Peng nodded without saying anything, his face looking thoughtful.

Situ Ping of the Evil Tiger Gang is not in the same good mood as Wen Wenhai and Xue Qing at the moment. She is sitting in the meeting hall of Wan Jianfeng, looking at Wan Cheng, the sword master of Wanjianfeng, with an expression of disbelief. After a while, he asked again unwillingly: "Is there really no such agreement?"

Wan Chengjiu from Wanjian Peak was a dark-faced, short, strong man. He said with a smile: "Gang Leader Situ, do I need to lie to you about this kind of thing? Xiangyang, you picked me from Mi Di." I also gave all the herbs to your Uncle Cheng, and gave them to him to refine into medicines like the previous ones."

Ma Xiangyang lowered his eyebrows and said, "Yes, master."

Then, Wan Chengjiu said: "Gang Leader Situ, the herbs you picked must also be refined by me, Wan Jianfeng. After the medicine is made, I will give you the corresponding elixir first."

Situ Ping absolutely did not want to hand over the herbal medicine at this time, but the situation was stronger than others. After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and called her share of the herbal medicine to Ma Xiangyang beside her. She is really not interested in Wan Chengjiu's promise. How can sharing the elixir with others be better than keeping it to yourself? Ma Xiangyang is Wan Chengjiu's disciple. Who knows whether the herbs he turned in will be retrieved by him soon? That's all, Situ Ping shook his head and tried his best to expel the unwanted thoughts from his mind.

At this time, Wan Chengjiu said again: "Leader Situ, you have done such a big thing for our sect, and our sect should also be rewarded. What do you think of the power of Wan Jianfeng?"
