Chapter 223: Sacrifice to the Beast God (23)
Chapter 223: Sacrifice to the Beast God (23)
Mo Ci nodded slightly, and he didn't say anything about Yan Shuo's love for his family.
After all, it belongs to Yan Shuo. He can give it to whoever he wants. It has nothing to do with me.
After delivering the things, Yan Shuo said with a smile.
"You young people, chat among yourselves. I'm going out for a walk first and will come back later."
Seeing this, Xiao Cheng hurriedly spoke.
"Senior, there's a place to rest in the backyard. How about you sit in there first? After I finish talking to Qinghui, you can leave with Qinghui."
When Yan Shuo heard this, he looked at Xiao Cheng, then at Mo Ci, thought about it for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
Xiao Cheng quickly ordered someone to take good care of him, while he looked at Mo Ci with a smile and sighed.
"Qinghui, Qinghui, you really gave me such a big surprise. I didn't expect that the elder of the Jiuxuan Sect would be your grandfather."
He sighed every time he spoke. Just now, when he faced Yan Shuo, his whole body was tense.
I can finally relax a little now, but I'm still a little excited.
Mo Ci looked at him and said, "Don't be surprised. I've only seen him for a few days."
Xiao Cheng: ...
What do you mean?
Xiao Cheng was confused, but he just thought Mo Ci was joking with him. He laughed twice and continued talking.
"Qinghui, now that the senior is here, you're going to Jiuxuanmen next, right? Sigh, I don't know when we'll meet again."
"Well, this is the jade pendant I've worn since I was a child. I'm giving it to you."
As he spoke, Xiao Cheng took off a jade pendant the size of a fingernail hanging around his neck and was about to hand it to Mo Ci.
Mo Ci saw it, but made no move to reach out and take it.
He said that they were good friends, but they should know their relationship best.
It doesn’t matter if Yan Shuo sends the gift, it’s not his anyway, and Xiao Cheng should thank Yan Shuo in return, it has nothing to do with him.
But now, Xiao Cheng wants to give the thing to him, so he has to bear the consequences.
He didn't come here to have too much involvement with anyone. He had a mission to accomplish, so naturally he couldn't accept it.
Seeing that Mo Ci didn't move, Xiao Cheng had no choice but to force it into Mo Ci's hand while speaking.
"Qinghui, please accept this. This thing of mine is not as good as the intermediate spiritual treasure given by the senior. If we were not good friends, I would not be embarrassed to show it to you."
"But with this, from now on, wherever there's a Treasure Pavilion, I'll only charge you 10% for all the information I share. I won't change that."
One percent...
Don't underestimate what Xiao Cheng said. This 10% fee is no different from a gift to Zhenxiu Pavilion.
And it's valid for life, which... is a bit exciting.
Mo Ci actually has news of wanting to buy or sell, but...
He looked at Xiao Cheng, then at the jade pendant in his hand which was still a little warm, and spoke after a while.
"I do want to buy some information from you, Xiao Cheng, but brothers should settle accounts clearly, and I won't let you suffer any loss."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly.
"With that Zhongji Lingbao here, I won't be the one who suffers."
Mo Ci was silent for a while, but still took the jade pendant and just said.
"I'll save this promise for next time. This time, it's still business as usual."
Meeting Mo Ci's determined gaze, Xiao Cheng had to swallow all he wanted to say and finally just sighed.
"You're being stubborn. Never mind. I'll make it up to you somewhere else. By the way, what news do you want to know?"
Mo Ci: "Human beast."
Xiao Cheng paused and looked at Mo Ci again.
"Didn't we just see it last time? Even though we missed out on the human-beast at the Wanbao Pavilion auction, why not wait another five years?"
"Besides, you have the senior here, so why worry about not being able to buy a human or an animal?"
Mo Ci shook his head. "What I want to buy and sell is where humans and beasts appear, and which places others have searched for but failed to find."
Xiao Cheng: ...
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Mo Ci seriously. After a while, he looked away and lowered his eyes to think.
"You want to find the place where Wanbao Pavilion keeps humans and animals?"
Although this was a question, there was a look of determination in Xiao Cheng's eyes.
Mo Ci didn't try to evade the question, but nodded.
"Yes."
Xiao Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air. This, this, this, this... ...the fact that Wanbao Pavilion was trading in humans and animals was no secret.
However, no one knows where Wanbao Pavilion captured the human-beast from.
Even his own Treasure Pavilion had no news about this.
However, the kind that Mo Ci wanted was actually available in Zhenxiu Pavilion.
After all, things are rare and valuable.
In addition, humans and animals have almost become the property of Wanbao Pavilion. It would be a lie for Zhenxiu Pavilion to say that they are not jealous. Naturally, they are also very concerned about where Wanbao Pavilion keeps humans and animals.
After a while, Xiao Cheng nodded.
"I do have this information... but this information is not sold in our Treasure Pavilion."
Hearing this, Mo Ci did not say anything, but just waited quietly for Xiao Cheng's next words.
Sure enough, although Xiao Cheng had a somewhat embarrassed look on his face, his tone was still calm.
"But Qinghui, you and I have a good relationship, so it's not impossible for me to give this thing to you."
"Just Qinghui, why are you interested in this? Are you trying to go against Wanbao Pavilion?"
"Qinghui, it's not that I don't trust you or the Jiuxuan Sect behind you, but this Wanbao Pavilion...it's very involved."
"You, have to be careful."
Mo Ci: "Thanks for your advice. I'll pay attention to it. Now..."
Xiao Cheng sighed in his heart, "Come with me."
As they were talking, the two of them walked in another direction.
When Mo Ci and I came here to buy and sell information for the first time, not only did we not take the same route, but the scenery was also very different.
After a while, Xiao Cheng brought Mo Ci to a room.
Following his movements, we entered one secret room after another, and finally entered a stone chamber that made people feel a little lost.
Xiao Cheng would also talk to Mo Ci about the situation here. As for Xuan Sang, he was left outside by Mo Ci.
On this side, Mo Ci successfully saw the news from Xiao Cheng. By the time he wrote down these things one by one, it was already dark.
When he went out, Xiao Cheng had already asked someone to prepare food.
Yan Shuo was naturally there too, and more than that, he seemed to be talking to Xuan Sang about something.
Then Yan Shuo treated Xuan Sang as Mo Ci's son and his great-grandson, and was very kind to him.
When Mo Ci saw this scene, he felt a little complicated.
By the way, does Yan Shuo know that Xuan Sang is the human-beast he raised in the cave?
Also, what is his attitude towards humans and animals?
Also, does he know that he had looted everything in the cave?
Mo Ci felt that these things were difficult to explain just by thinking about them.
Fortunately, he didn't want to explain and just wanted to complete his task first.
As for the rest, just take it one step at a time.
Xiao Cheng's place is called Zhenxiu Pavilion. After seeing the food here, Mo Ci finally recognized the word "zhenxiu".
The taste was really good, and he even wanted to kidnap Xiao Cheng's chef.
But thinking about what he was going to do, I decided to give up. One more person means one more risk.
Although Xuan Sang's cooking skills were not as good as this, it still satisfied Mo Ci.
After the meal, which was enjoyed by both the host and the guests, Mo Ci and his group said goodbye to Xiao Cheng.
Yan Shuo followed them back to their home outside the city. Only after they returned to their residence did Yan Shuo ask a question.
"Qinghui, are you interested in human-beasts?"
