Chapter 1224 Curfew
"This Xiao Hua... It sounds like he is not a blood disciple of Yu Lei Sect, and he was sent here at the beginning of the war. He doesn't seem to have any background, but he... But he actually persisted without any damage. Now...he must have some kind of background! In fact, he came to the battlefield just to gain experience... Chang's friendship with such a knowledgeable disciple of Yu Lei Sect will definitely be of great use in the future!"
Immediately, Xiao Hua became a person with strong backing like Qian Diheng in Chang Shu's eyes.
"Oh, fellow Taoist Chang?" Seeing that Chang Shu was a little distracted, Xiao Hua asked curiously, "Do you have anything to tell me, fellow Taoist?"
Chang Shu hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "What does Chang have to say? Chang also heard about this secret bidding meeting, and he never thought about participating in it. If it weren't for Daoist Xiao, Chang wouldn't know where this secret bidding meeting is. It’s being held everywhere!”
"Haha~" Xiao Hua said with a smile, "Aren't they all recorded in the jade slips? Fellow Taoist, just take a look."
"Where!" Chang Shu waved his hand hurriedly, "The things in this jade slip can only be seen once with spiritual thoughts and then disappear automatically. Chang doesn't dare to delay Fellow Daoist Xiao!"
Then he said with regret: "Unfortunately, if this tiger talisman can only be entered by one monk, and Chang cannot leave his post without permission at night, Chang would really want to follow Daoist Fellow Xiao to broaden his horizons!"
"There will always be a chance!" Xiao Hua didn't care, "Besides, these secret bidding meetings won't open your eyes very much!"
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Xiao's advice is absolutely correct!" Chang Shu confirmed Xiao Hua's idea of background, respectfully handed over his hands, and left in a hurry.
Xiao Hua didn't care about any change in Chang Shu's attitude. In his opinion, all Chang Shu's behaviors were normal, because. The only cultivators who can attract his attention now are those who cultivate the golden elixir!
Three days passed in a flash, and when the time was approaching, Xiao Hua casually took out the jade slip and soaked it with his spiritual thoughts. When he saw the location inside, he felt a little stunned, and then a smile appeared on his face!
After coming out of the alchemy cave, what was rare was that the usually lively scene outside was gone, and it was similar to the loneliness at the beginning. Snowflakes fell from the sky again, hitting Xiao Hua in the face.
"Huh? Where are the arrogant late-stage Foundation Establishment disciples?" Xiao Hua blinked, naturally it was easy to think of the situation in the past few days, "Hey, I'm afraid he has been sent to the front line!"
"Alas, they take the fierce battle too simply! Maybe they can change their attitude after returning from the battlefield and respect the disciples like us who can survive!"
Xiao Hua sighed and flew towards the outside of the station.
Unexpectedly, it was quiet along the way, and not a single disciple was seen!
"It's broken!" Xiao Hua suddenly felt something bad, "Did something happen?"
"Where did the disciples come from?? What are they doing here when they are not meditating in a quiet room? Could it be that... they don't know the prohibitions within the sect?" Sure enough, Xiao Hua's figure just appeared in the station. Immediately, several patrolling disciples in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment flew over from the darkness and stopped him!
"My dear, what kind of ban is that?" Xiao Hua was stunned and hurriedly bowed and said, "This disciple is Xiao Hua, the first team of the Thunder Clan, and he has never received any ban!"
"Ah? The first team? Are you Xiao Hua?" The leading disciple was also stunned, "Why are you still in Xuntian City? All the disciples of my Royal Thunder Sect's first team have returned to Qionglei Peak!"
"So that's it!" Xiao Hua understood somewhat, clapped his hand and took out his token and handed it to the disciple, and said with a smile, "The disciple is indeed Xiao Hua. However, because he was recruited by Senior Brother Li Zongbao of the Bliss Sect, he cannot leave Xantian for the time being. city!"
"That's it!" The disciple took Xiao Hua's token, looked at it and gave it back to Xiao Hua, smiling. "The ban from our Royal Thunder Sect was issued through the orders of each captain... Oh, that's not right! This ban was issued after Senior Tu Hongtu of Xuntian City was assassinated. The captain of the first team should have informed Junior Brother Xiao. ah!"
Hearing the disciple's last question, Xiao Hua also smiled bitterly. Nonsense, Cui Hongshen was distracted at that time and was thinking about his own happiness. Moreover, after he returned, he immediately took him and Dui Qimeng to the alchemy cave and came out of the cave. After that, he took a thunder boat back to Qionglei Peak. Not to mention whether he knew about the ban, even if he knew about the ban, he probably wouldn't have a chance to tell him, right?
"Haha, Captain Cui has returned to Qionglei Peak at this time, I don't know why!" Xiao Hua said with a smile, "But at this time, I received a summons from Senior Brother Li Zongbao, asking the disciple to go to a place in Xantian City. It seems that there is It’s urgent! I wonder if I can go out?”
With a trace of embarrassment on his face, the disciple shook his head and said: "Junior Brother Xiao, although you have not received the ban and do not know that you cannot go out at night, it does not mean that you can violate the ban! I am sorry that I cannot let you out!"
"Grandma's!" Xiao Hua scratched his head a little. Not to mention that he couldn't participate in the secret bidding meeting, he had paid a large sum of spiritual stones, and this was all going to go to waste!
And what the disciple said next made him jump even more.
"Furthermore, even if I let you out, monks are not allowed to travel at night in Xantian City, and you will still be unable to move even an inch!"
"Humph, I understand!" Xiao Hua finally understood why spirit stones were required for the secret bidding meeting, and even knew why they held the secret bidding meeting late at night.
Xiao Hua originally wanted to turn around and go back to the alchemy cave, but he changed his mind and handed the token to the disciple on duty again, smiling: "This senior brother, please take another look at my token. It has the seal of the special order of the Council Hall, the prohibition of my Yu Lei Sect, and the prohibition of Xuntian City... Can you make it convenient?"
"Oh? Really?" The disciple took Xiao Hua's token again with some embarrassment, read it carefully with his mind, and smiled, "Brother, I was a little careless, and I didn't see it clearly just now! Since Junior Brother Xiao has a special order, then the prohibition of my Yu Lei Sect can be ignored! However, the prohibition of Xuntian City... That's not something I can know!"
Xiao Hua took the token from the disciple and said with a smile; "Brother, just let me out of the Yu Lei Sect. If the disciples of Xuntian City don't recognize me, I will have to apologize to Brother Li Zongbao. Who made his special order no match for the ban of Xuntian City?"
"Hahaha~" the disciple laughed, "Although this place is Xuntian City, the Council Hall is the head of my Dao Sect. Which disciple of Xuntian City dares not give face to the Council Hall? Don't worry!"
After speaking, the disciple raised his hand and said, "Brother Xiao, please!"
"I dare not!" Xiao Hua bowed and flew out of the Yu Lei Sect with the disciples.
Sure enough, the streets of Xuntian City were so quiet and cold that you could almost hear the sound of snowflakes falling. The thick clouds above the sky blocked the moonlight tightly. In Xiao Hua's eyes, there was nothing but darkness!!!
"There is always darkness after the sunshine. If there is no darkness, how can we understand the preciousness of sunshine?" Xiao Hua sighed, flew up, and slowly flew towards the distance!
"Humph, this Snow Realm Master is really good at calculating. If I don't have the special order of the Council Hall, in order to participate in this auction secret meeting, I am afraid I will have to use the magic world's hiding technique. If he has any secret technique, won't I fall into his calculations?" Xiao Hua snorted coldly, thinking in his heart, he didn't know whether the special order of the Council Hall could match the ban of Xuntian City, but after listening to the words of the patrolling disciples of the Yu Lei Sect, he had a bottom line in his heart.
Just as he thought, Xiao Hua was stopped by the patrolling disciples of Xuntian City in a moment. Of course, with the mark of the special order of the Council Hall, plus Xiao Hua's pretense, it was not a big deal. Xiao Hua came to the auction secret meeting.
When he saw the teahouse where he met Ziye that day, Xiao Hua smiled bitterly. If it weren't for the instructions on the jade slip, how could he know that this ordinary-looking teahouse was actually the place where the bidding secret meeting in Xuntian City was held!
The door of the teahouse was closed, far from being bright all night. Xiao Hua walked up a few steps, stretched out his hand, and knocked on the wooden door.
Nine knocks of different rhythms sounded, and a hoarse voice came from behind the wooden door: "Which Taoist is visiting? What's the matter?"
Xiao Hua laughed in his heart: "I have knocked on the door, why are you still pretending?"
However, he still did what was said on the jade slip: "I got a strange copper talisman and would like to ask Manager Lian to appreciate it!"
"Oh, so that's it!" As the voice sounded, a small square hole appeared on the wooden door, revealing a fat face in the hole. The small eyes on the big face were squeezed into mung beans, staring at Xiao Hua up and down, but Xiao Hua was already wearing a mystery at this time, what could he see?
Xiao Hua clapped his hands, and the bronze tiger talisman was handed in. A chubby hand took it and closed the small hole. After half a cup of tea, there was a sound of "Zhi La", and the wooden door opened a crack. The hoarse voice sounded: "Daoyou, please come in!"
"Thank you!" Xiao Hua bowed and stepped in.
Seeing that the layout inside the teahouse was no different from that in the daytime, every table was wiped clean, but there was less noise!
"Daoyou, why did you come at this time?" The tall and fat foundation-building cultivator closed the door and asked curiously.
"Huh? Am I late?" Xiao Hua was a little stunned, "Doesn't the jade slip say that it starts late at night?"
"Hehe~" The cultivator scanned Xiao Hua with his divine sense again, with a hint of respect on his face, "Daoyou can come here late at night when the whole city is under curfew, I really admire you!"
"Oh? Could it be that I am the only one who came at this time?" Xiao Hua suddenly realized.
"Hehe, it's not the only one, but there are only a few!" The monk said, pointing his hand forward to lead the way. (To be continued.
