Chapter 1427: Inexplicable(1/2)
Jiang Hao had already found out that although the Hu family had a house in Lanxi City, the main house was not in the city, but in Hexian Town, eight miles east of Lanxi County. The Hu family's house was built in the mountains outside the town and had a very large area.
The surrounding mountains are all private property of Hu's family. The Hu family has regulations that no one is allowed to go into the mountain to cut down trees privately. Therefore, when Jiang Hao walked on the stone road leading to Hu's family, the trees on both sides were very lush.
As Jiang Hao approached the mansion, he could already smell a strong demonic aura. Now he was sure that there must be monsters in the Hu family, and there might be more than one.
"Smack!"
He raised his hand and patted the door knocker. An old man in his fifties and sixties opened the door. He was surprised to see Jiang Hao, "Scholar, are you doing anything?"
Jiang Hao looked at the old man and confirmed that he was a human. He bowed and said, "My name is Jiang Hao, I'm here to visit Master Hu."
"Is it a visit to my master? Is it an old friend who comes to visit or is there an invitation from my master?" the old man asked.
Jiang Hao shook his head, "Not one, I'm here to pay back the debt."
When the old man heard this, his face darkened, "You scholar, you are not an old friend or a guest. You came here rashly to see my master. Isn't my master so easy to see?"
"If you owe money to pay back the debt, how could the master take care of those small matters? If you have any questions, go to the money house to deal with it. How come you find the Hu family mansion? Let's go away quickly." The old man said as he was about to close the door.
Jiang Hao pushed the door, still smiling, "Old man, I bring a baby from home for Mr. Hu to show you. I can guarantee that he will definitely like this baby after seeing me. In this way, you can show Master Hu, and I will wait for him here."
As he said that, he handed over the wooden box.
The old man in the concierge hesitated a little and thought about taking the box, "Well, I'll go and show it to the master, just wait outside the door."
Bang!
The door closed again.
Jiang Hao was not angry either. He walked to a tree outside the yard gate, stood quietly in the distance with his hands behind his back, thinking in his mind how to deal with the meeting.
I don’t know how many fairies are here, how powerful they are, and whether they can deal with them by their own means. I silently take stock of them, talismans, swordsmanship, lightning skills, palm thunder, thunder control techniques, super recovery ability, violent, and eliminate skills.
Jiang Hao is still confident about protecting himself and escaping his life.
The rest, adapt to the situation.
......
The old gatekeeper came to the inner hall with a wooden box and found the inner hall butler to report, "The big steward, a scholar came outside the door and said that there was a treasure to be sold to the master, and he also said that the master would be moved after seeing it."
After saying that, he held the box.
The butler looked at the dirty broken wooden box in front of him in surprise, and didn't want to pick it up at all. He said indignantly: "Which earth pile can be used as a treasure? Do you really think that my Hu family is stupid and have a lot of money? Throw it out and let the scholar get out."
When the concierge heard this, he turned around and left, but his legs had not yet stepped out of the threshold, but was stopped by the butler, "Stop, wait."
The butler suddenly remembered a saying that the master taught, "Don't just look at the watch and do whatever you do, and then draw a conclusion after finding out, there will be no mistakes."
The old man in the concierge came back quickly, but the butler didn't pick up the box and pointed at him, "You open it and I'll see what it is."
The old man in the doorman opened the box and saw two pieces of yellow paper lying at the bottom of the box, with runes made of cinnabar on it, and said in surprise: "This seems to be a Taoist talisman."
The butler naturally saw it. After seeing these two talismans, his brow jumped suddenly because he obviously felt spiritual power on these two talismans.
Absolutely, this is a Taoist talisman with magic power, and its magic power is not low. The butler's eyes are turned. Judging from the spiritual power contained in these two Taoist talismans, it is not wrong to say that it is a treasure.
"Would you tell me in detail about the scholar's situation?" asked the butler.
The concierge thought for a while and described: "The scholar called himself Jiang Hao. He was tall and well-proportioned. He was quite handsome. Although he was only wearing a coarse blue robe, he looked very dignified..."
The butler looked a little impatient, "Who asked you if he looks good or not, and said something else."
"Oh ~ OK, he pays back the money he owes our money house, so he comes to sell his own baby. Our master will definitely like this baby after seeing it."
"Where are others now?" asked the butler.
"I was locked outside the gate." The concierge said.
The butler pondered for a moment, ignored the dust on the box, covered the lid and held it in his arms, and told the doorman to wait here. He quickly walked out of the inner hall and came to the yard. He looked around and saw that there was no one. The butler jumped gently to the wall and looked outside the yard.
The light movements were very inconsistent with his fat body.
A few dozen meters away, Jiang Hao stood under the tree, looking at the distant forest with his hands behind his back. The Hu family mansion was built halfway up the mountain, and the scenery was still very good.
Suddenly,
He felt like he was being watched by someone, and his heart moved. It was probably because the Hu family was observing him, but he didn't turn around and still stood there.
The butler looked at Jiang Hao carefully and did not find any spiritual energy in the scholar. He was just a mortal. He was worried for most of his heart, but he didn't know that Jiang Hao had already used the hidden breath technique to hide his cultivation.
Not to mention him, even if a god comes over, he may not be able to see through Jiang Hao's cultivation.
The butler jumped down lightly, walked quickly to the backyard, passed through the rockery pavilion, passed through a huge lotus garden, and came to a separate large room, "tap" and knocked on the door three times.
Not long after, a voice came from inside, "Who is that?"
"Master is me." The butler responded quickly.
"What's wrong that disturbs me in my cultivation?" The master inside said with some displeasure.
"Hu Quanzhi's mistake, but if there is an urgent matter, you must report it to the master." said the housekeeper.
"Come in."
Hu Quan pushed open the door and immediately smelled a faint sandalwood. The statue of Nuwa was enshrined in the middle of the hall, and a futon was placed underneath. On the futon was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with three beautiful beards, which were quite elegant.
Hu Quan walked to the cushion, knelt respectfully, put a wooden box with both hands, and said, "Master, a poor scholar came outside the door. I just went to see it. He was an ordinary person. He owed our money house money and asked him to sell heirloom treasures. In this wooden box, I took a look and found that there were two talismans and very strong spiritual power."
Mr. Hu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes became even narrower and longer. "Selling the talisman? Open it and take a look."
Hu Quan opened the box and exposed the two talismans at the bottom of the box. When Mr. Hu saw these two talismans, a gleam flashed in his eyes. In his eyes, the two yellow paper talismans turned into two groups of spiritual energy, with rich spiritual energy and they could not be revealed by the runes. I believe that as long as this talisman is used, its power will be great.
This ability to observe talismans is a talented magical power that Mr. Hu obtained after his cultivation was successful. He can see through spiritual power and observe people's fortunes, just like the Taoist divine eyes and Buddhist Dharma eyes. But the level is much lower.
"Good talisman!"
Mr. Hu couldn't help but scream.
"Although these two spiritual talismans do not know what their function is, the spiritual power contained on them is comparable to a magic weapon. They should have been painted by masters with successful practice." Mr. Hu said happily.
"You said a scholar wanted to sell talismans?" Mr. Hu looked at the butler Hu Quan.
"I am a scholar, now outside the door."
Mr. Hu is a meticulous person. Such a talisman appears in the hands of a mortal scholar. He must ask clearly and find out the details of the origin to get rid of it. If he accidentally provokes someone he cannot provoke, it will be more than worth the loss.
"Hu Quan, call the scholar the main hall, I want to see him." Mr. Hu ordered.
"Master, you don't have to meet him in person for such a mortal. Why don't I ask him how much he wants to sell and give him some money to leave." Hu Quan said.
"These two talismans are quite extraordinary. I have to ask about the usage and find out the details of the origin. Okay, go and call him." Mr. Hu said.
Hu Quan quickly got up and walked out quickly to call someone.
Mr. Hu looked at the two talismans again and looked at the box containing the talisman paper. It was like pearls were placed in a basket, which was very incompatible. He found a sandalwood box from the side and took the two talismans and placed them inside.
"Well, this will be much better." Mr. Hu nodded with satisfaction.
......
Squeak~!
The small side door of the Hu family opened, and the butler and the concierge walked out. The butler stood on the steps. The concierge shouted to Jiang Hao, "Come here, our butler has something to say to you."
Jiang Hao turned around and saw the fat middle-aged man standing on the steps. He thought that this was the butler. Jiang Hao had opened his eyes at this moment. Under the eyes of the sky, he saw the demonic aura floating above the butler's head.
When he got closer, Jiang Hao smelled the smell of a fox. It seemed that he was right that the Hu family should be the fox family.
The butler raised his chin and said to Jiang Hao: "You are the scholar who sells talismans. My master sees you in the hall, come with me."
Walking into the courtyard from the small door, Jiang Hao found that the decoration here was very gorgeous. There were various ancient pines, green cypresses, pavilions, towers and pavilions in the courtyard. After passing through the long stone path, he came to the main hall. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw an old handsome guy sitting at the main hall with a sandalwood box on the table next to him.
At this moment, the two looked at each other.
There was nowhere to hide under the eyes of heaven. On the old man, Jiang Hao saw the demonic aura on his head again, and it was much richer than the butler.
However, Jiang Hao found that the old fox had no fox smell, but a faint sandalwood smell. He thought to himself, could it be that after practicing for a long time, he had lost all his body scent?
It's not impossible.
Jiang Hao reads a lot of books. Some classics record that after the real monster is successful in cultivation, it will gradually remove the complexities of the body. For example, body odor will not only not have a odor, but will instead turn into a charming body fragrance.
Well, his little vixen wife Helen is fragrant.
Ahem,
I've thought far away.
Jiang Hao now understood a little. The account-payment manager he met a few days ago was probably the one who came into contact with, not the Master Hu in front of him, because Master Hu had basically removed the smell of foxes, but the butler had a strong smell. It seemed that that guy couldn't practice.
Jiang Hao was looking at the old fox, and the old fox was also looking at Jiang Hao, and even used his talented magical powers to fox fairy eyes. He was afraid that the scholar in front of him would hide his breath and deceive Hu Quan.
After seeing this, the old fox was shocked.
He stood up from his seat with a rub.
It was not because he saw through the hidden spiritual power of Jiang Hao, and the system did not allow him to see it, but because he saw something else in Jiang Hao.
Luck!
The reason why the old fox was so surprised was that when he saw the scholar in front of him, his luck was actually purple and gold.
How could this not shock him?
