Chapter 281 Jade Hook Secret Key
It was raining, and there were not many pedestrians in the narrow alley, and there were only a few black cats crouching under the eaves and watching the surroundings quietly.

Wearing a black poncho, Xu Dao walked into the alley, glanced at the black cat staring at him, and then walked to the end of the alley, directly submerged in the bricks and stones.

When he looked up again, the scene in front of him had completely changed, the light was still dark, but there was no trace of moisture in the air, but an elegant courtyard.

There are sparse bamboo forests planted in the yard, and one after another, pitch-black civet cats jump among them, showing the utmost elegance.

After Xu Dao walked in, dozens of black cats on the ground all raised their heads, looked up at him, and said in unison: "Friend Lu Dao is here, please follow me."

Xu Dao didn't underestimate the group of little things on the ground, he slapped the black cats and said, "I've seen fellow Daoist raccoon."

After spending a long time in the city of Wu, he also met many other Taoist priests. Wherever he went today was a house nicknamed "Black Fox Taoist Priest".

After following a black cat through layers of formations and reaching the depths of the courtyard, there were already a few scattered people waiting inside, either coming directly from the Yin God, or driving the Yin Beast, or It is like Xu Tao's physical body so far.

But without exception, the auras of these people are extremely tyrannical, even if they all restrain their bodies, the ghost aura, monster aura, and evil aura overflowing from their bodies can frighten ordinary Taoists into immobility.

After Xu Dao walked in, strands of spiritual consciousness immediately stretched out towards him, wandering wantonly around his body, trying to find out his details.

Being treated so rudely, Xu Dao immediately showed a sneer on the sallow face that he pretended to be, and he circulated all the energy and blood in his body, directly smashing the spiritual consciousness stretched out by the other party.

"Hiss! You!"

When the consciousness was cut off, several Taoist priests immediately let out cold voices, and their eyes on Xu Dao changed from scrutiny to unkindness.

Fortunately, at this moment, the black cat that led Xu Dao in came to the middle, with black energy surging on his body, his bones trembling, and he directly turned into a woman, but although this woman's body was well-proportioned, she was too Petite, only a quarter of the size of an ordinary person.

"Alright, fellow Daoist Lu is here for the first time, so you are a bit late, so please don't mind me."

The black cat transformed into a woman smiled at the surrounding Taoist priests and said, "Since everyone is here, today's small meeting will start first. Do you have anything to trade with each other?"

It's just that after she finished speaking, the Taoist priests all stared at her, not wanting to communicate with other Taoist priests around her.

Among them, a pale-skinned Taoist priest said directly: "Don't waste any more time, Fellow Daoist Li, everyone is here today for the fairy garden, let's get to the point quickly."

The black raccoon Taoist priest heard that, and the smile on his face changed into an apologetic smile, and he hurriedly said: "It's okay, since you don't want to talk to each other, then the poor Taoist will just say it."

"Pindao has been in Wudu City for seven or eighty years. Every three years, fellow Taoists will come to find Pindao to hide his cultivation and enter the fairy garden. It is well-known and everyone recognizes me."

Speaking of this, the black raccoon priest looked up at Xu Dao, and squeezed out a coquettish smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't recognize the poor Daoist, Daoist Lu, you will naturally get acquainted with him after a long time."

When Xu Dao heard it, he clasped his hands and echoed casually: "Where is it, the reputation of fellow raccoon daoist is resounding, and the poor Taoist is a newcomer, and I admire it very much."

Hearing his words, the black raccoon priest smiled even more charmingly, as if he was quite useful.But when Xu Dao watched, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

This person has been running business in the capital of Wu for seven or eighty years, plus the time it took him to practice to build a foundation, he must be over a hundred years old.

Such an old woman prefers to turn into a petite woman, and from time to time she makes a cute gesture, which really makes people wonder whether her mind is normal or not.

And the black raccoon priest has always walked outside in the posture of a yin beast, and no one knows whether it is a man or a woman.

"Okay, the poor Taoist will not be a fool." The black raccoon Taoist clapped his hands and said:
"You are all people who want to enter the fairy garden but can't get it. The fairy garden quotas listed for sale here by Pindao have already been bought by other fellow Taoists, but this time inviting you here is not to tease everyone. There is indeed another way. Maybe it will allow fellow Taoists to enter the fairy garden."

Xu Dao listened silently to the other party's narration, and touched the breath-holding jade hook hidden in his sleeve.

The next moment, the black raccoon priest snapped his fingers, and six beams of light burst out from his hands, swimming in mid-air like tadpoles, forming a circle.

And the appearance of one of the tadpole-shaped things was exactly the same as the breath-holding jade hook in Xu Dao's hand.

"Dear fellows, please take a look, this is the original appearance of the six-hook map sent to you by the civet cat messenger under Pindao's command."

"The six hooks are the tokens of the Six Edicts of the Wu Kingdom. They have always been owned by the patriarchs of the various clans, and they have been kept secret until now. It took a lot of effort for Pindao to know what's inside. Key."

The Taoist priests at the scene were all attracted by the six hook-shaped objects evolved by the magic power of the black raccoon priest, and they were either surprised or frowned.

The black raccoon Taoist didn't pay too much attention, and continued to explain: "It is said that the Erhai Taoist Palace was only a place to gather Taoist priests in the middle of Wu, and the capital of Wu was established by Liuzhao. The status of the Liuzhao tribe in the Taoist palace is naturally conceivable. And know."

"Among them, when Erhai Fairy Garden was opened, the ancestors of the Liuzhao tribe put in great effort, and the formations that were introduced in succession were arranged by the Liuzhao ancestors themselves. Although the Liuzhao tribe has no way to deal with the fairy You can do anything inside the park, but you can do something at the entrance and exit..."

She pointed to the six jade hooks and said: "These six keepsakes are the six keys to enter the fairy garden formation. They cannot be kept secret. Any one of them can open a secret door at a specific time. People enter the Immortal Garden. It’s just that the Liuzhao tribe became very powerful in the Taoist Palace later, and the quota of the Immortal Garden was allowed to be whatever they wanted, so there was no need to open the back door privately to send people in.”

After some narration, the Taoist priests around were all interested in the six things that the black raccoon priest showed, and their eyes flickered.

Among them, Xu Dao listened silently. Although his face was calm, his heart was full of ups and downs.

Originally, after receiving the invitation from the other party, he looked at the text and pictures on the invitation, and already had a guess in his heart.Now that I got confirmation from the other party, I was pleasantly surprised.

Xu Dao stroked the breath-holding jade hook he was holding in his hand, and thought to himself:
"Originally, it was just a token of the Shezhao clan, and its symbolic meaning was greater than its practical use. Later, I realized that this object is not only made of a strange material, but also related to the Dragon Palace formation. Now it should be on the fairy garden. It was given to my descendants by the Liuzhao tribe. The key to open the back door!"

Just as he was thinking, a Taoist priest came out and said with a suspicious attitude:
"Since this thing is the secret key to open the Immortal Garden, it may not be of much use in the hands of the Liuzhao tribe, but it would be great if it falls into the hands of other people. This kind of news should be kept secret."

There were also other Taoist priests who sneered and said: "Exactly, how can Erhai Dao Palace allow others to easily enter such an important place as Xianyuan? This jade hook is still a family keepsake of several tribes, how can it be known by outsiders?"

Xu Dao looked at the black raccoon priest, wanting to see what the other party would explain.It turned out that what the other party said had something to do with him.

The black raccoon Taoist priest replied: "Fellow Taoists, I am afraid that you have forgotten the news that spread recently? The southwest boundary has undergone major changes, and even a golden alchemy Taoist has died."

Hearing this, some of the Taoist priests at the scene did not change their faces, as if they had already received the news, while others were surprised, probably hearing this for the first time.

The black raccoon Taoist priest looked around at the crowd, covered his mouth and said, "Hey! It turns out that everyone doesn't know everything. It's a pity. It's a pity that such news may be sold for a sum of money."

"That's all, I've said everything I said, let's explain it thoroughly." She paused:
"Although the southwestern border is remote, there is one of the six edicts, called Shezhao. In the past six months, all the Taoist priests of this clan have died one after another. Even the ancestral land has been leveled. They are all missing...the family should have been extinct."

At this point, the black raccoon Taoist priest pointed to one of the six jade hooks: "The whereabouts of this object are also unknown. Whether it is the demon master or the Liuzhao in the capital of Wu, they are all looking for this thing. And the function of these jade hooks And news, that’s why it spread.”

"I don't know how to be talented, and I have some knowledge, so I learned about it first."

Now, although all the Taoist priests on the scene were still a little confused, they all came to their senses.

Only the look in Xu Dao's eyes was a bit strange. He thought that he ran for nothing last time, but he didn't expect that it was because of the things he explained that he knew another real function of the breath-holding jade hook.

A Taoist said impatiently: "In that case, fellow Daoist Black Fox invited me here today, but he knows the whereabouts of this jade hook."

The black raccoon Taoist priest nodded: "Exactly, several Taoist priests of the Shezhao tribe all died at the hands of the Lord of the Bone Monastery, and most of this secret key is in the hands of the Bone Monastery!"

Someone said: "Hey! Master of the Bone Monastery, I have heard of this guy many times..."

for the rest of the time.

The black raccoon Taoist priest also told the people present what Xu Dao had said to Lei Zhao and the demon master. His words were extremely provocative, implying that the Lord of the Bone Temple destroyed the Yachamen and Shezhao tribes, and he must have money in his hands. It doesn't matter, what's even better is that the Taoist priests under this gang have suffered heavy losses, and he himself is also in a state of serious injuries, which is a great opportunity to seize the secret key.

At this moment, Xu Dao suddenly understood that the real purpose of the other party today was not just to sell the news to everyone, but to encourage everyone to go to Jiangzhou to take advantage of his illness to kill the master of the bone temple .

He touched the jade hook in his hand, and felt secretly happy for a moment, knowing that the hole he dug for the Lord of the Bone Temple worked.Just look at the past few months, whether the other party can handle it or not.

When he came back to his senses, Xu Dao squinted his eyes as he looked at the other Taoist priests gathered in the reunion hall.

For some reason, although the black raccoon Taoist kept saying that he had got inside information, he would never come again when the opportunity was too late.But Xu Dao always felt that the other party seemed to let them out on purpose, just to let these Taoists go to Jiangzhou to test the waters.

And the Taoist priests in the field heard it, even if some of them were still calm, they all pricked up their ears, listening to the heated discussion of the people on the field.

After all, a secret key that can enter the fairy garden for a long time, and the other benefits of the Lord of the Bone Temple, the money is touching, and it is really exciting.

In order to show his gregariousness, Xu Dao also pretended not to be able to bear it and interjected a few words to mix in.When the final meeting ended, he also wrote down the time for the next meeting agreed by the black raccoon priest and others.

The black raccoon Taoist priest in the form of a short woman hissed and turned into a black cat again. In the forest, seven black cats jumped out of the darkness, and they all said: "Fellow Taoists, poor Taoist priests will lead each other separately." Everyone, go out and meet again next time."

"Yes.", "Very good." There was a murmur in the hall, and all the Taoist priests present followed a black cat out of the courtyard, not knowing what they were planning in their hearts.

But the next time we meet is when everyone is preparing to go to Jiangzhou together. The interval is not long, and there are only two days for everyone to think and prepare.

Although Xu Dao showed a look of great interest, it was absolutely impossible for him to follow these people to Jiangzhou.

Not to mention that the source of the news was released by him, and even the jade hook holding the breath has been held in his hand, Xu Dao has no motivation to return to Jiangzhou at all.

At most, he would take a look at it from a distance and ask more questions to see how many Taoist priests could not help but go to Jiangzhou to try it out, so as to speculate on the life and death of the Lord of the Bone Temple.

The secret meeting is over.

In the following time, Xu Dao focused on confirming the relationship between the Xixi Yuhook and the fairy garden, and asking around how to use the Xixi Yuhook to enter the fairy garden.

As the Jiangzhou incident became more and more fermented, many Taoist priests, even though they had never seen the real appearance of the jade hook, still inquired like Xu Dao, and his actions were not conspicuous.

And the method of how to use the jade hook to open the fairy garden really spread out.

This time, Xu Dao hesitated for a while, worried that there was a fraud.

Because in his opinion, the news about Yugou is very likely to be released by the Yaosi or the Wuzhao tribe themselves. This move will not only drive the Taoist priests in the capital of Wu to test the Lord of the Bone Monastery, but also use it to reduce damage to their own family. manpower.

Even if the jade hook is not in the hands of the Lord of the Bone Temple, as long as it is obtained by other people, they can lure this person to hold the jade hook and enter the fairy garden.

And this person is Xu Dao.

There is no guarantee that the Taoist Palace will not have a way to recover the jade hook in the fairy garden. If so, he will be caught in a trap if he enters the fairy garden with the jade hook.

When Xu Dao was hesitating whether to use the breath-holding jade hook to enter the fairy garden, after more than a month, news finally came from Jiangzhou.

The news made him feel a little depressed, and while he secretly said it was a pity, he was very happy at the same time.
