Chapter 822 Traitor

In the end, the woman in black robe failed to get what she wanted. She only changed it to a spiritual pill related to improving combat power, and then turned around and left.

Lao Chaofeng was not in a hurry to go out to welcome guests this time.

He turned around and cupped his hands and said to Su Yi: "Sir, there are a lot of strange things going on today. Could it be that something big is going to happen in this Purple City?"

Cui Jingyan's eyes were also fixed on Su Yi. She had been holding back her doubts for a long time.

Old God Su Yi sat in the dark shadow and said: "It has nothing to do with you, go and greet the guests."

Lao Chao said humbly: "What Mr. Su said is absolutely true."

He turned and walked out of the pawn shop.

Soon, Lao Chaofeng brought in another guest.

This is a man in black robes, with a black copper mask with animal patterns on his face. Only a pair of eyes are exposed. Even his aura is covered by wisps of black smoke, making it impossible to see his cultivation level.

"I have a treasure in my hand, I wonder if your pawn shop can eat it."

The man in black robe spoke, his voice hoarse.

Lao Chaofeng smiled warmly and said, "Then it depends on what kind of treasure you want to exchange for."

The man in black robe was silent for a moment, took out a wooden box from his sleeve robe, placed it on the counter, and said, "Fellow Taoist, you can take a look first."

Lao Chaofeng glanced at the weighing scale and saw a flash of light, and the wooden box fell on the scale.

As the scale shakes, the beams of the weighing scale suddenly appear with ripples like stars, and the weights of the scales then appear with numerous lines.

This is the "discretionary scale" used to sense and measure the treasure and value in the wooden box.

This was an eye-opener for Cui Jingyan.

Su Yi was not surprised.

Whether it is a weighing scale, a star abacus, or a heart-beating bell, they are all the treasures of the pawnshops in the heavens. They are extremely miraculous and can be regarded as first-class divine objects in the heavens and the earth.

If it weren't for not wanting to offend the owner of the pawn shop, Su Yi would have wanted to keep these three treasures for himself...

After a while, he asked casually: "The guest really wants to pawn the treasure in the wooden box?"

"good."

The man in black robe nodded.

"has a problem?"

Lao Chaofeng frowned and asked for discretion.

The discretionary scale replied: "The treasure in the wooden box is the Cui family's ancestral treasure, the 'Netherworld Thunder Mirror'."

As soon as these words came out, Cui Jingyan's pretty face changed suddenly, and she was so shocked that she wanted to stand up, but Su Yi immediately held her shoulders down and covered her mouth.

"Don't panic."

Su Yi's message rang in the girl's ears.

Cui Jingyan's expression was uncertain.

Lao Chaofeng was also startled. He had already learned from the conversation between Su Yi and Cui Jingyan that the extremely beautiful girl was the daughter of the head of the Cui family.

After thinking about it, Lao Chaofeng said: "What kind of treasure do you want to exchange for by pawning this treasure?"

The man in black robe said: "A secret method or elixir that can help the emperor of the Xuanzang Realm break through the bottleneck and enter the Xuanyou Realm."

Lao Chaofeng was startled for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, Su Yi's voice message rang in his ears:

"Tell him that if he wants such a secret method, he will never have the chance to redeem the Dark Thunder Mirror. If he agrees, I will give him a copy of such a secret method and guarantee that he will be satisfied."

Lao Chaofeng narrowed his eyes slightly and said to the man in black robe with a smile: "To be honest with you, there is indeed what you need in the pawn shop, but... if you pawn it, you will no longer be able to redeem this Ming Lei. Mirror."

Unexpectedly, after thinking for a moment, the man in black robe readily agreed: "Yes."

Lao Chaofeng glanced at him and made a judgment.

The weighing weight was shaken for a while, the wooden box on the scale disappeared, and then an extra jade slip came out.

This jade slip has just been released and is from Su Yi's handwriting.

"Your Excellency, please keep it."

Lao Chaofeng smiled and presented the jade slip.

The man in black robe put his consciousness into it and took a look, and there was a rare excitement in his eyes.

Then, he cupped his hands towards Lao Chaofeng and said, "Thank you very much!"

"It's just a purchase, you are too polite."

Lao Chaofeng smiled.

Soon, the man in black robe hurried away.

"Master Su, this person's origins are obviously weird."

Lao Chaofeng couldn't help but said.

While speaking, he looked at Cui Jingyan with his eyes, and found that the girl's pretty face was pale, and the corners of her brows and eyes were filled with haze.

Undoubtedly, the girl also realized that something was wrong.

Su Yi looked at a black bronze mirror placed in a wooden box and said softly: "It is indeed the 'Netherworld Thunder Mirror'. This treasure can be used to control the Nine Netherworld Thunder. Its power is unpredictable, but more importantly, this treasure is more powerful." It is the key to running the Cui family’s clan-protecting formation.”

"Without this treasure, the power of the Cui family's clan-protecting forbidden array would be reduced by at least 30%."

Speaking of this, he looked at Cui Jingyan and said: "Not long after, the Lantern Festival once in a thousand years will come. At the same time, there are still some ancient forces who are eyeing your Cui family. But at this juncture, you Cui There seems to be a traitor in the family."

traitor!

Those two words seemed to have struck a chord in Cui Jingyan's mind. The girl was so angry that she clenched her teeth and said angrily: "I really didn't expect that someone from the Cui family would use the family's treasure as a pawn. Such behavior is worthy of death!!" "

With that said, the girl got up and left, planning to go back to her clan and tell her father about this.

Su Yi stopped him helplessly: "Why are you panicking? Are you sure that this is the traitor in your Cui family?"

Cui Jingyan was stunned and said, "Brother Su, what do you mean?"

Su Yi said warmly: "What I mean is, don't alert the enemy first. Let's take a look at what the traitor is planning and who he is contacting during this period. Follow the clues and catch them all to avoid future troubles."

Lao Chaofeng couldn't help but praise: "Master Su's words are the solution once and for all."

The discretionary scale, the heart-beating clock, and the abacus all echoed in unison.

Cui Jingyan immediately calmed down and said: "That guy pawned the Dark Thunder Mirror in exchange for the method to enter the Xuanyou Realm. This undoubtedly means that his cultivation has reached the stage of perfection in the Xuanzhao Realm and he has been unable to break through. Otherwise, he would never have done such a heartless thing. In this way, his identity can be easily guessed..."

In the girl's mind, the figures of some old guys from the Cui family have emerged.

Su Yi thought for a moment and said, "What you said is true, but it is by no means the real reason."

Cui Jingyan immediately humbly asked for advice: "Brother Su, please give me some advice."

"Since this person dares to pawn the Dark Thunder Mirror at this time, he must have a way to prevent your Cui family from suspecting him."

Su Yi said casually, "And the reason why he wants to pawn this treasure is for a simple purpose, which is to weaken the power of your Cui family's clan protection formation."

"What's more, as long as you sell this treasure to Zhutian Pawnshop, no one will be able to find out who made it, and you can also get a secret method to break through the realm. Why not?"

Cui Jingyan frowned and said, "If you go by what you said, it will be difficult to find out this person's identity."

Su Yi looked at Lao Chaofeng and said, "According to the rules, your pawnshop cannot reveal the identity of the customer, but the transaction just now was between me and the other party. Do you think telling his identity is breaking the rules?"

"Uh...this..."

Lao Chaofeng hesitated immediately.

But the Heart Bell, the Discretion Scale and the Star Abacus all said in unison: "Master Su's move certainly does not violate the rules of the pawn shop."

Lao Chaofeng's face froze, and he wished he could slap these weapon spirits. Can he discuss it with himself when he speaks?

If you do this, how will Mr. Su view me?

Then Lao Chaofeng coughed dryly and said with an apologetic smile: "Reporting to Mr. Su, although the guest just now had his aura covered, and even his appearance was concealed by secret techniques, in this pawn shop in the world, it is not difficult to see through his appearance. difficulty……"

Don't wait for him to finish.

Whoosh!

A picture scroll swept out and appeared in front of Su Yi.

Then the heart-beating clock made a soft and sweet sound: "Master Su, the portrait of the guest just now is in the scroll. Please take a look."

Lao Chaofeng was speechless and his cheeks twitched. Are these little bastards planning to rebel? ?

Why do you have no bottom line and perseverance when you see Mr. Su?

Shame on you! !

Lao Chaofeng was wailing in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he praised: "The heart-beating clock is doing well. It's time to take out the portrait a long time ago."

Su Yi was naturally too lazy to pay attention to Lao Chaofeng's "fickle" attitude.

He opened the scroll and saw a middle-aged man with gray beard and hair and an immortal demeanor.

"How could it be the third elder!?"

Cui Jingyan cried out, her face full of disbelief.

"It's not surprising that you know people and faces but don't know their hearts."

Su Yi said calmly.

Cui Jingyan shook his head and said: "No, the third elder is now at the middle stage of Xuanzao Realm, and he has been assisting my father over the years, fulfilling his duties and never showing any abnormality."

"Furthermore, the Dark Thunder Mirror has always been kept by the Great Elder. Before... I thought the traitor was the Great Elder."

At the end, Cui Jingyan's expression was full of gloom.

Su Yi said: "It seems that this traitor is deliberately trying to frame the great elder of your Cui family. If the Dark Thunder Mirror is lost, the great elder is destined to have no excuses."

"hateful!"

Cui Jingyan was so angry that her pretty face turned cold.

Su Yi put away the scroll and said, "You have to keep this matter in your stomach first, and you must not alert the snake."

Cui Jingyan nodded.

"Fellow Taoist, can my master and disciple enter the pawn shop?"

Suddenly, an old and gentle voice sounded outside the pawn shop.

This voice is very familiar to both Su Yi and Cui Jingyan.

Lao Chaofeng slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot about the old man and the young man."

With that said, he walked out of the pawn shop.

Soon, Lao Chaofeng walked into the pawn shop with an old man in Taoist robes and a young man in white robes.

Neither of them concealed their appearance, allowing Su Yi and Cui Jingyan to recognize them at a glance. These two people were the master and disciple who had come to the Netherworld with Su Yi!

"What do you want in exchange for your coming here?"

Lao Chaofeng asked with a smile.

The old man in Taoist robes first raised his hands in greeting, and then said: "My master and disciple came here specifically for the 'jade ultimatum' left by the 'Ten Palaces of Yama'."

As soon as these words came out, Lao Chaofeng's pupils narrowed slightly.

The atmosphere in the entire pawn shop was much duller.

Su Yi smiled silently, he was not surprised by this.

As early as when he saw the pair of masters and disciples in Cangqing Continent, he had already guessed that the nearly extinct imperial road that the masters and disciples were planning to plot, and the "Ten Palaces of Yama" that had long since disappeared in the long river of time. "related!
