Chapter 424: Revealing Dust

Bai Zixi said directly: "You are not allowed to go."

Mo Hua whispered: "I didn't say I was going..."

Bai Zisheng frowned, "But if I don't go, how can I check the gray monk?"

"That's right..."

Mo Hua looked at Bai Zixi, and Bai Zisheng also looked at her.

Bai Zixi's autumn eyes flickered slightly, "You can go, but I want to go together."

Bai Zisheng shook his head quickly.

Mo Hua also said: "Junior Sister, it's not appropriate for you to go."

Bai Zixi said: "If you can go, I can go too, anyway, we will go in stealthily."

"This..."

Mo Hua hesitated a little, and just wanted to say something, but touched Bai Zixi's crystal clear eyes, so he had to sigh:

"Okay..."

So it was night, at the time of Haishi.

As soon as the night fell and the lanterns were hung, Jinhua Street was bustling with traffic, prosperous and noisy.

Mo Hua and the other two wrapped in cloaks climbed to the opposite side of Baihua Tower.

Baihualou is a brothel, and it is also the place where Wang Lai confessed to meeting with the gray monk after killing and hiding the body.

Baihualou is gorgeously decorated.

There are clusters of flowers in front of the door, and no one is soliciting customers outside.

But everyone who comes to this place knows why they come.

Bai Zisheng quietly asked Mo Hua: "How do we get in?"

Mo Hua released his spiritual sense, spied for a while, and frowned:

"A brothel actually set up a dust formation..."

"Drying formation?" Bai Zisheng was slightly stunned.

"Drying formation." Mo Hua corrected.

Bai Zisheng wondered: "Is there any difference?"

"The principles of the formation are different."

Bai Zisheng was a little confused.

Mo Hua explained: "The Development Array, which reveals objects, will invalidate the Concealment Array and Concealment Technique within the array."

"The Development Array is more effective, but it is a rank 1 and 9-pattern array. It requires high spiritual awareness and is difficult to learn. It uses special ink and is expensive to set up."

"The Manifestation Array is an earth-based array, rank 1 and 7-pattern. It is easy to set up and has a low cost."

"Unlike the Development Array, the Manifestation Array cannot invalidate concealment, but generates fine dust inside the array. Once a hidden cultivator, If you pass through the formation, you will be covered with dust and your traces will be revealed. "

"The development formation makes concealment ineffective in principle;"

"And the dust-revealing formation indirectly makes the cultivator reveal his body through external objects."

Bai Zisheng was a little surprised, "You studied it so carefully?"

"Yes." Mo Hua nodded proudly, "The art of formation is profound and extensive, so it is natural to study it more carefully."

Bai Zisheng opened his mouth and asked again:

"The brothel opened the shop to welcome customers, using the dust-revealing formation to make the customers covered with dust, is it It's not bad. "

"Hmm..." Mo Hua observed the formation carefully again and said:

"This dust is a cheap spice. Ordinary cultivators who don't understand the formation will only think that they are stained with powder and will not realize that this is the effect of the formation."

"And the dust formation has limited effectiveness. This kind of dust only lasts for a cup of tea and will gradually disappear..."

"A cup of tea..." Bai Zisheng frowned, "Is it to prevent someone from sneaking into the brothel to peep?"

"It should be..." Then Mo Hua was a little confused, "Who would go to the brothel to peep when they have nothing to do..."

Bai Zisheng looked at Mo Hua, looked at Bai Zixi, and then looked down at himself, and said weakly:

"Don't the three of us just want to go in and peep..."

Mo Hua was stunned, frowned and thought, and then said seriously:

"We are going to check clues, it's a serious matter, not peeping."

Bai Zisheng nodded, "That makes sense!"

Bai Zixi looked at the two people with a helpless look in his eyes.

"Since there is a Chenxian Formation, how can we get in?"

Bai Zisheng asked again.

Mo Hua was also a little troubled, "I can solve the formation, but it's a bit difficult to not attract attention..."

"What about now, should we go back first?"

Mo Hua thought about it and nodded:

"Let's go back first. There is a foundation-building cultivator in the brothel. If we stay here for too long, he will probably notice us."

Mo Hua was not afraid of this.

General foundation-building cultivators could not see through his hiding.

But it's hard to say about the junior brother and the junior sister.

The three of them left secretly again.

Bai Zisheng muttered on the way: "A brothel, and there is a foundation-building cultivator..."

If there was no foundation-building cultivator, it would be much easier for them to act.

He didn't take ordinary Qi-refining cultivators seriously at all.

Mo Hua said: "This shows that there are many people making trouble in the brothel, and they earn a lot of spirit stones."

Bai Zisheng thought about it and nodded.

Mo Hua thought of the miners who worked hard in the mines and earned one spirit stone a day, and sighed slightly.

The more unethical the business, the more spirit stones you can earn...

...

The gray-robed monks appeared in Baihua Tower.

Mo Hua wanted to go into Baihua Tower to take a look, but time was short and he couldn't think of any good way for a while.

There are too many people in Baihua Tower, so it is not easy to sneak in.

The main problem is the dust-revealing array.

The dust-revealing array is easy to deal with, but it is not easy to deal with it without anyone noticing.

In addition to the dust-revealing array at the door, there are probably some tiny dust-revealing arrays in Baihua Tower, on the doors, windows, corridors, and on the beams in front of the house to prevent people from peeping.

Mo Hua was a little dissatisfied.

There must be a cultivator who used the concealment technique to do bad things.

Now he wants to use the concealment technique to do some serious work, and catch a bad guy, but he is also on guard.

In order to prevent villains, even gentlemen are prevented...

After a few days, there was no progress.

Mo Hua thought about asking for some clues from other cultivators.

The best candidate is Elder Su.

He is a first-class array master and a foundation-building elder of Nanyue Sect. He must have a wide network of contacts and must be well-informed.

But Mo Hua was not sure whether Elder Su had anything to do with this matter, so he asked rather obscurely and was very cautious in his conversation.

"Elder Su, what's fun in Jinhua Street?"

Elder Su was not surprised.

Although Mo Hua was a first-class array master, he was still young and had a child's nature. It was normal for him to be a little playful when he went to different places.

Elder Su told Mo Hua everything.

Jinhua Street was the most prosperous place in the entire Nanyue City.

What festivals, what scenery, what food in which place...

Which restaurant's dish was well cooked, which restaurant's wine was the best, which tea in which teahouse was the most mellow...

After talking too much, Elder Su couldn't help but go off topic.

For example, which gambling house's table was the easiest to win, and which female cultivator in which building was the most...

Elder Su stopped talking here.

"What's the best?" Mo Hua asked.

Elder Su was sweating profusely and said awkwardly: "It's not suitable for children, it's not suitable for children..."

Mo Hua asked suspiciously: "Elder Su, are you familiar with this kind of thing..."

Elder Su was shocked, "No, no, I didn't... Don't slander my innocence!"

"Oh..." Mo Hua obviously didn't believe it.

Elder Su smiled awkwardly again.

Mo Hua wanted to find out more, but saw the disciple came over and whispered something to Elder Su.

Elder Su looked embarrassed.

Mo Hua said knowingly: "Elder Su, you are busy, I will leave first."

Elder Su also stood up and returned the greeting, "I am really sorry for the visitor. I will prepare a banquet one day to apologize to the young master."

Mo Hua waved his hand, "You are too polite, Elder."

He was a little curious about what kind of banquet Elder Su could prepare and whether there was anything delicious.

Elder Su escorted Mo Hua out. As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, a monk in gorgeous clothes came over. He was of middle age, handsome, and gentle.

Mo Hua was a little surprised, "Master Lu?"

The man was the master of the Lu family, whom Mo Hua had met once before.

And the guest that Elder Su wanted to entertain should be the master of the Lu family.

Mo Hua had learned from Elder Su that the name of the master of the Lu family was Lu Chengyun.

Lu Chengyun was not surprised to see Mo Hua. He smiled and said in a gentle tone:

"Mr. Mo."

They greeted each other.

Mo Hua exchanged a few simple pleasantries and was about to leave, but was stopped by Lu Chengyun.

"Young Master, can we have some tea together?"

Mo Hua was a little confused, "Don't you have something to discuss with Elder Su?"

Lu Chengyun said, "It's nothing important, just exchanging some experience in formation. Young Master is also a formation master, and his attainments in formation are not bad. Why don't we chat together."

Mo Hua thought about it and agreed.

There must be something wrong with the Lu family's mine.

But he was not familiar with the Lu family.

Maybe there would be some clues after contacting the head of the Lu family.

But Lu Chengyun was able to be the head of the family, so he was naturally very cunning. He talked with Mo Hua for a long time, but he didn't mention the mine and the mine repair at all. He really just talked about formation.

And Lu Chengyun's attainments in formation also surprised Mo Hua.

The head of the family was busy with affairs, and might not have the time and energy to study formation, but Lu Chengyun's knowledge of formation was even more profound than Elder Su.

No wonder he was very close to Elder Su.

After talking about formations for a few more words, Lu Chengyun's attitude towards Mo Hua became more friendly, and there was undisguised admiration in his eyes.

Lu Chengyun paused for a moment, and suddenly asked:

"Mr. Mo, are you married?"

Mo Hua was drinking tea, and choked when he heard it, "Not yet... not yet..."

Lu Chengyun's eyes brightened, "I don't know..."

Mo Hua coughed and said in embarrassment:

"I'm still young, so I won't consider it for now."

Lu Chengyun was not displeased, but showed an expression of understanding, and secretly handed a booklet to Mo Hua.

"This is part of the Lu family genealogy."

Lu Chengyun didn't say the rest, and only gave Mo Hua a meaningful look.

Mo Hua gently flipped through the family tree and found that all the people recorded on it were direct descendants of the Lu family, and they were all women of marriageable age.

Turning to the back, there were portraits of beautiful female cultivators.

Mo Hua was a little helpless.

Lu Chengyun smiled calmly, while Elder Su drank tea silently, pretending that he had not seen anything.

After drinking tea and talking about formations, Lu Chengyun got up and left.

Before leaving, Lu Chengyun patted Mo Hua again and whispered:

"Don't worry, take your time."

Mo Hua didn't know what to say.

Lu Chengyun turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly seemed to remember something, so he turned back and said to Mo Hua:

"I have a question, can I ask the young master?"

Mo Hua was slightly startled, and nodded: "You ask."

"It may be a bit rash."

"It's okay."

Lu Chengyun nodded and asked:

"The young master's aura is obscure, and it is impossible to spy on it with spiritual consciousness. Could it be... a spiritual weapon that conceals the aura?"

Mo Hua's eyes moved slightly, and then he said sincerely:

"Yes, the master has a good eye!"

Lu Chengyun breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed and said: "Goodbye, I will talk to the young master about the formation when I am free someday."

Mo Hua also bowed and said: "Master Lu, take care."

After Lu Chengyun left, Elder Su also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mo Hua:

"He is the master of the family, and it is his job to do this, which is reasonable, but..."

Elder Su hesitated.

"But what?" Mo Hua asked curiously.

Elder Su thought for a moment and sighed:

"The Lu family has a lot of gossip. It's better not to go in if you can."

Mo Hua nodded.

Elder Su glanced at Mo Hua, his eyes slightly condensed, his expression was a little complicated, and he slowly asked:

"Mr. Mo, you came to me for a purpose, right?"

Mo Hua was slightly stunned, "How do you know?"

Elder Su said expressionlessly:

"You came to me these days and asked indirectly. You must want to ask something..."

"But this matter is a little secret and not easy to say, so you didn't ask directly, so you found some excuses and talked about it, trying to get some information from me."

Mo Hua was silent.

Elder Su's eyes were slightly cold.

He knew that this little formation master must have a plan.

Elder Su picked up the teacup, brushed off the tea foam, and his eyes were as unpredictable as the tea:

"Mr. Xiao Mo, what do you want to do?"

At this point, Mo Hua no longer had to hide it.

He said seriously:

"Elder Su, I want to go to the brothel!"

Elder Su spit out a mouthful of tea.
