MTL - Asking About Longevity-Chapter 581 Unboxing
Chapter 581 Unboxing
After trying all his strength to move his sword in vain, Boss Jiang ran out of spiritual energy and knew that he would definitely die.
As expected, Mo Hua didn't give him a chance, and he didn't show any mercy. He frequently fired fireballs and killed the dying boss Jiang.
At this point, this group of traffickers was completely destroyed.
The surrounding area was in a mess, charred and black, the huts were broken by swords, and there were grass clippings everywhere.
Mo Hua nodded and decided to run away.
According to the conversation between Boss Jiang and the fat store owner, one of their accomplices will come over in an hour.
If you are hit by them, the situation will not be good.
But there is still a little time, and Mo Hua needs to "remediate" the aftermath.
First of all, some of the traces of the formation must be smeared away. Although it cannot be completely eliminated, it must also be confused to cover up the techniques of "divine consciousness controlling ink" and "drawing the ground as formation".
Not all formation masters can use the ground as a medium to lay out formations.
This kind of clue cannot be left behind.
The traces of the spell... don't matter.
The second-grade fireball technique is a popular spell. As long as there is a fire spiritual root, anyone can learn it and use it.
Others will not be too suspicious.
Of course, the main reason is that the traces of the fireball technique are too obvious.
These dozen or so traffickers were either repaired by Mo Hua using the fireball technique, or were bruised and bruised by Mo Hua using the fireball technique.
Even if the ink painting tried to cover it up, it couldn’t cover it up at all.
The rest of the ink painting was checked, and no other traces were left.
After that, Mo Hua began to look through the storage bag.
Horses will not be fat without night grass, and people will not be rich without windfall.
It is wrong to randomly search through other people's storage bags.
Mo Hua is a serious young monk and does not want to do this kind of "killing people and stealing goods", but these traffickers are not good people in the first place. They are the fat meat that they have brought to their doorsteps. I would feel bad if they don't take some of it.
Moreover, in order to kill them, I wasted second-grade spiritual ink and consumed more than a hundred spiritual stones. These costs must be recovered from them.
As a young monk, it is not easy to earn some spiritual stones.
“Not to make a fortune, just to preserve capital!”
Mo Hua nodded, and then began to rummage excitedly through the traffickers' storage bags.
These storage bags contain everything, including murderous spiritual weapons, Yin people's talismans, and some commonly used elixirs, as well as elixirs that don't look serious and don't know what they are used for.
Hooking up all the ink paintings, I accepted them all.
But after thinking about it, he still hesitated.
“It is estimated that many of these are stolen goods. Even if they are not stolen goods, most of them are not clean…”
If you take it yourself, will you leave any clues...
Being "tracked", tracked, traced, or hunted down...
Moreover, since it is stolen goods, it seems to be of no use to you if you take it yourself?
Most of the stolen goods were second-hand, and it was difficult to sell them when they were in Qianxue Prefecture.
If it is in Tongxian City, with the endorsement of Chief Zhou and Elder Yu's backing, even if it is not sold, the demon hunter himself can digest it internally.
But in Qianzhou, a place where people are unfamiliar with, it’s hard to say...
If you are greedy for petty gains, you may suffer big losses.
“As a mature monk, you must learn to restrain your desires...”
Mo Hua thought silently in his heart, and kept the spiritual weapons, elixirs and talismans in their storage bags instead of putting them into his own pocket.
But there is no need to keep the spirit stone.
The spiritual stone is clean.
The dirty ones are monks.
The next step is to enroll in school, and there are many places where spiritual stones can be used...
Mo Hua put the traffickers' spiritual stones into his storage bag, but then he was stunned again.
Still inappropriate…
The spiritual weapons, talismans, and elixirs are all there, but the spiritual stones are gone.
This is also very suspicious.
Does this mean that the monk who killed these human traffickers was a "little money fan"?
“There is still a little risk…”
You can’t not take it, but you can’t take it all…
Mo Hua frowned and pondered for a moment. In the end, he could only bear the heartache and kept half of the spirit stones.
It is safest to only take half of the spirit stones.
However, these human traffickers are all foundation-building monks who are engaged in life-threatening business. They carry a lot of spirit stones with them. Even if they only take half of them, Mo Hua has collected nearly five thousand spirit stones.
Five thousand spiritual stones are not a small amount.
Mo Hua felt a little better.
Finally, there is Boss Jiang’s storage bag.
Mo Hua’s eyes lit up.
He rummaged through Boss Jiang's storage bag and found three spiritual swords, five bottles of elixirs, some secret books, and two jade slips.
Spiritual Sword…
Although I am greedy for ink paintings, I cannot keep them.
It is a disaster to stay.
He can't use the elixir either.
Cheats…
He flipped through the ink paintings and saw that they were some physical exercises and Taoist techniques that he could not use and could not take away either.
The ink painting has some regrets and some doubts at the same time.
What about the Sword Control Technique?
I don’t know what the name of Boss Jiang’s style is, but it is majestic and glittering when used. What about the sword-controlling technique that can split a hut in half?
He doesn’t really want to learn...
Some sword techniques require the adaptation of specific techniques, profound sword skills, and expensive spiritual swords, which consume a large amount of spiritual power in order to exert powerful lethality.
Mo Hua may not be able to learn the sword technique even if he has it, let alone buy a spiritual sword.
But not learning does not mean not researching.
Know yourself and your enemy, and it is also good to study the methods and principles of "sword control".
The ink drawings were turned over again, and finally the eyes looked at the two jade slips.
These two jade slips are sealed and cannot be seen by the spiritual sense. Obviously, the contents inside are extremely precious.
“I don’t know if there is a secret to wielding a sword hidden inside…”
“To take it or not to take it…”
The ink painting is a bit confusing.
He thought for a while and decided to secretly throw away the two jade slips.
Jade slips, unlike spiritual weapons and elixirs, are available everywhere, and they usually involve some secrets and techniques that others will not investigate.
It is normal for a monk to have jade slips in his storage bag, but it is not surprising if there are no jade slips.
Take it yourself, as long as you don't show it to others, there will be no problem.
Hide the two jade slips in the "Na Zi Ring" given to you by your master. It can also isolate the breath and is very safe.
What's more, Mo Hua really wants to know whether the "golden shining" sword-control technique is hidden in these two jade slips.
Mo Hua had made up his mind. With a move of his little hand, the two jade slips were put into the Nazi Ring.
Then he put some miscellaneous things away again and put them into Boss Jiang's storage bag. Then he returned the storage bag to its original owner as it was and stuffed it into Boss Jiang's arms.
Mo Hua even added a fireball spell to make the storage bag look like a "battle-damaged version".
After doing all this, Mo Hua clapped his hands and nodded, satisfied.
The bad guys killed.
The spiritual stone was earned.
I also got two jade slips with unknown contents.
You can slip away...
Mo Hua checked it again to make sure there were no omissions, and then released his spiritual consciousness to examine the scene from the perspective of a bystander.
I am sure that the deaths of these dozen people have nothing to do with me.
Nor does it remind people of myself.
Mo Hua was relieved and immediately felt grateful.
“Thanks to Uncle Zhang Lan…”
"It was Uncle Zhang Lan from Daotingsi who taught me how to destroy corpses... No, he taught me how to cover up his traces!"
I have lived up to Uncle Zhang Lan’s teachings!
Mo Hua nodded.
Then he withdrew his consciousness and turned around to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he was suddenly startled again.
He always felt that he seemed to have missed something...
Mo Hua frowned and thought about everything on the road carefully. The more he thought about it, the weirder it became. Moreover, he suddenly remembered that these monks were pushing a cart along the way, and there were several storage boxes on the cart...
How about those storage boxes?
Mo Hua's eyes narrowed slightly, his consciousness swept away, and he let out a startled cry.
Spiritual consciousness…can’t sense it?
“No, it’s not that the spiritual consciousness cannot detect it, but the breath of these boxes is hidden, so it is difficult for the spiritual consciousness to detect it...”
"has a problem…"
Mo Hua’s eyes gradually brightened.
He took his spiritual consciousness to the extreme, and even used the calculation method taught by his master to sense the clues of spiritual power.
Finally, after a moment, Mo Hua's consciousness moved slightly and he found where the storage box was.
The storage box is still in the restaurant.
Boss Jiang placed it in the corner, so when the ground fire array exploded, it was not affected. Then the restaurant was split open by the sword energy, and thatch and beams were scattered, covering these storage boxes.
The ink painting was not discovered for a while.
Mo Hua dug out these storage boxes from the corner of the restaurant with some difficulty.
Boss Jiang carried these storage boxes with him all the way, and even used special means to cover up the smell of the storage boxes, so Mo Hua almost didn't notice them.
There must be a big problem…
“What’s in the box?”
Could it be the real family background of Boss Jiang and others?
Ink painting refreshed.
There is a lock on the storage box, and there is a formation on the lock, but it is not difficult, especially for ink painting.
Mo Hua released his spiritual consciousness and confirmed that there were no hidden weapons or other traps in the storage box. Then he carefully untied the array pattern and opened the storage box.
The storage box was opened and Mo Hua looked at it and was suddenly stunned.
"empty?"
There is nothing in it...
what happened?
Mo Hua frowned, he pointed a finger, ink lines appeared, and opened another storage box.
But it’s also empty inside…
Mo Hua turned his attention to the third storage box again.
But just when he was about to untie the formation patterns, Mo Hua was startled and looked a little stunned.
“This…is not a storage box…”
Although they all look exactly the same, their material structures are completely different.
This is a seemingly ordinary box isolated by a formation...
Mo Hua’s eyes flashed slightly.
Storage boxes, like storage bags, contain the power of the void that has extremely profound principles but very simple application. It can accommodate things several times the size of its own space.
But this kind of space is incompatible with "living soul".
Storage boxes cannot accommodate people or any other living creatures.
Along the way, some weird words of Boss Jiang came to Mo Hua's mind.
“It’s something extraneous…”
"One is for sale, both are for sale..." "Take care of the little devil as well..."
Mo Hua initially thought that they had kidnapped other monks and kidnapped him, just by the way.
But along the way, there were no traces of the abducted monks.
Moreover, their luggage is a storage box and cannot contain living people.
Ink painting has no doubts.
He previously thought that Boss Jiang and others were responsible for "receiving goods."
Other monks went to kidnap and transport them, and they were responsible for taking care of the "pick-up and drop-off".
They haven’t received the “goods” yet during this trip…
But now, among their "luggage", there is a box that is not a "storage box"...
Moreover, he deliberately confuses and deceives others.
So what is in this box? Could it be that...
Mo Hua’s heart skipped a beat.
He looked at the box carefully and found that there were actually second-level formations painted on the box, and there were more than one of them.
There is a defensive formation to prevent damage to the box;
Have an isolation formation to prevent people from prying eyes;
There are also locking formations to lock the box to prevent it from being opened...
…
too professional…
Could this "box" be specially customized for the purpose of abducting monks?
After going through so much trouble, who is the person they kidnapped?
Mo Hua frowned and sighed.
Trouble again...
Now how to do?
Inside the box, there may be a living monk who was kidnapped and trafficked.
On the box, the formation is sealed.
These formations are second-grade formations. It seems that they can be solved, but it will probably waste some time. I don’t know if it will be too late...
If you are confused...
This monk who was trafficked will always be kept in a box.
The box is very heavy and conspicuous, so I can’t take it with me.
If you ignore it, another group of traffickers will come over in less than half an hour and take the box away...
After taking him away, it would be better if he just asked for a ransom, which would only cost him money and avoid disaster.
But if it is sold to some evil cultivators, refined into elixirs, made into medicine, and used to practice evil arts and refine evil weapons...
This child’s parents will never see their child again. They don’t even know whether their child is alive or dead. They have little hope, pain and despair...
Mo Hua felt unbearable.
“Forget it, let’s try it…”
Two quarters of an hour, no, three quarters of an hour, if you can untie it, save the child. If you can’t untie it, then there is nothing you can do...
Mo Hua first meditated and regained some consciousness, and then began to concentrate on solving the formation on the box.
There are four formations on the box.
Three of them are familiar five-element formations from ink paintings.
It's just that the familiar ink painting is of the first grade, but the formation on the box at this time is of the second grade.
It's just that they're all under twelve lines, so it's pretty simple.
Mo Hua guessed and calculated, and it only took him a quarter of an hour to solve all three formations.
Mo Hua admits that there is a bit of luck involved.
But luck is also part of the formation master's strength.
Now only the last formation is left...
After reading the formation, Mo Hua frowned.
This is... a type of formation he has never seen before...
He can only judge based on experience, the direction of the formation pattern, and the hub of the formation that this is a special "lock" type of formation.
But Mo Hua has no idea what type and system this formation is.
Mo Hua scratched his head.
"what to do…"
Make bricks without straw.
How do you explain the fact that you know nothing about the formation types, the formation patterns, the formation pivots, and the formation principles?
Mo Hua was a little anxious, but he tried his best to calm down, and then he followed the steps and thought a little bit...
If you want to know how to solve the formation, you must first know how to draw the formation...
To draw the formation, you must first get the formation map...
Array diagram…
Calculation…
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, and calculated the specific formation pattern through the spiritual traces of the formation. This was the method of divine consciousness calculation taught to him by his master, that is...
The basis of Tianji calculation.
Now, my own spiritual consciousness can sense the miracle of this "lock"-like formation. Next...
Have you calculated the pattern of this formation first?
Now learn the formation pattern and solve the formation method now?
Mo Hua was startled, "Is this possible..."
He glanced at the box in front of him again, thinking that there was a young monk in the box who didn't know whether he was alive or dead. His parents were worried and anxious about this...
Ink painting is a little helpless.
"Try it…"
Mo Hua sat cross-legged, held his breath and concentrated, and began to calculate the formation pattern of this "lock" formation based on the magic of heavenly calculations...
A little jerky at first.
Because the calculated formation patterns are all unfamiliar.
Ink Hua tried his best to ignore the external form of the formations and comprehend the inner laws of spiritual power. Gradually, these formations became vivid and friendly in his eyes.
These lines no longer seem to be unfamiliar lines, but the tracks left by the movement of the road...
The five elements formation is like this.
The battle is like this.
This may even be the case for all formation types...
Mo Hua has some enlightenment in his heart, but his spiritual consciousness is not stopping. He is calculating faster and faster, and the formation patterns are also manifesting little by little in the sea of consciousness in Mo Hua.
But, it’s still not fast enough…
To calculate faster...
Mo Hua frowned, suddenly startled, and suddenly thought, if he used "Heaven's Secret Calculation" to strengthen "Heaven's Secret Calculation", differentiated his spiritual consciousness, and calculated at the same time, wouldn't the calculation be faster...
Mo Hua thought for a while, but the situation was urgent and he had no time to hesitate.
Or I can only try it first…
Use your uncle’s divine calculations to strengthen your master’s divine calculations!
Mo Hua's pupils turned black, his spiritual consciousness transformed, he put on the "Taoist robe", and with the blessing of the trick, he used the method of divine calculation to deduce the pattern of this unknown locking formation.
But as soon as he calculated, the sea of consciousness felt cramped.
It is as if the two methods are in conflict with each other, creating saw teeth, sawing left and right, cutting and tearing the spiritual consciousness of the ink painting bit by bit.
Fortunately, the spiritual consciousness of ink painting has changed qualitatively and is as condensed as mercury. Although it has been rejected by two types of algorithms and the spiritual thoughts are fragmented, the form is scattered but the spirit is not scattered, and the root is not damaged.
Mo Hua can still endure this kind of severe pain.
Compared to this, the speed of formation pattern evolution has increased by leaps and bounds, and is much faster.
Mo Hua's heart was filled with joy, which gradually offset the pain in his consciousness.
After a cup of tea, Mo Hua finally figured out the unfamiliar formation pattern completely.
But his consciousness was almost exhausted.
There is also pain left in the sea of consciousness.
Although the secret calculation is easy to use, it still consumes too much spiritual consciousness...
At this moment, it is too late for Mo Hua to express emotion.
He must seize the time and break the formation quickly.
The ink painting cancels the "magic calculations", the shadows in the eyes gradually fade away, and the Taoist robes on the spiritual consciousness also gradually dissipate.
But when this "Taoist robe" dissipated, the slightest crack appeared on the illusory double image...
Like the torn law of the great road...
It's just these cracks that the thoughtful ink painting didn't notice...
His attention was focused on the formation in front of him.
This is a formation of the second grade and thirteen lines, of an unknown type.
It's like a brand new formation door.
“The formation is indeed profound and profound…”
Ink painting sighed, then put away his thoughts.
He wants to liberate the formation now.
But in fact, he couldn't "explain" it.
Because even if he knew the formation pattern, he would not be able to learn it in a short period of time, let alone understand it.
What he wants to do is to "muddle".
Mo Hua has rich experience in "defending formations". Based on past experience, not all formation formations require you to have an extremely sophisticated understanding of formations.
It’s okay to be “blind” occasionally.
But you have to be able to be "blind".
It must be done according to the formation principle.
Don’t be blind.
The ink painting breaks this complete lock formation into parts and separates it into different formation patterns. Based on experience and intuition, the interlocking formation patterns are classified.
Then I simply drew a few times on the ground and gave it a try.
Some guessed right and some guessed wrong.
If you guess right, keep it. If you guess wrong, try again.
After doing this several times, I tried out several groups of formation patterns that had a "sheng-ke" relationship.
There are also several formation patterns, and the ink painting has not tested the relationship between life and death.
There is a high probability that the "shengke formation" of these formations is not included in the formation itself.
But this is enough.
Mo Hua estimated the time and found that there was probably more than a quarter of an hour left. There was no time for him to perfect and study thoroughly.
In ink painting, first understand the formation patterns.
As long as there is a relationship between formations and formations, the ink painting will solve them.
The locking formation is a little dim, but it is not ineffective.
Mo Hua looked at the formation pivot again and changed it based on his intuition. He also reversed some spiritual power flow based on the formation eyes. Then he went back and tinkered with the formation pattern...
Just like that, after many attempts, Mo Hua relied on his extraordinary "intuition" of formations and somewhat "confusedly" to destroy this special "locking" formation...
The formation on the box was completely dim.
The box also has no "lock".
Mo Hua immediately opened the box.
In the box, there was indeed a small figure.
Much smaller than an ink painting.
He is a little boy, about four or five years old, fair and clean, with handsome eyebrows. He is wearing low-key but luxurious brocade clothes.
It seemed that the noise of opening the box was loud, and it seemed that the noise of fighting just now was heard.
The child opened his watery eyes and looked at the ink painting with some fear.
Thanks to Fengzhichocolate for the reward~
