Blue, Red and White Dark Abyss Cauldron

Chapter 267 Gift

Bi Ye looked at Huang Jieshi and asked, "Jieshi, do you have any good ideas to deal with this?

Huang Jieshi said: "General, this is really difficult for me. Wang Mo is just an alchemist. He can observe the movement of heaven and earth and calculate the changes in spiritual energy, but he knows nothing about the struggles in the spiritual world and the human world. Unless... unless the astronomical geomancy can be truly perfected..."

Bi Ye sighed and said, "In that case, I would like to thank Master Jie for pointing out the key points. The military situation is urgent, and Xiao Mu and I cannot delay any longer. We will take our leave now."

Huang Jieshi came out from behind the table and said, "Please wait for a moment, General. Wang Mo has something to give to Brother Chu."

Bi Ye had no choice but to step aside and said, "Please ask Jie Shi to open the secret door. I will wait outside."

Huang Jieshi waved his hand and said, "General, please wait for a moment here. We will be out in a short while." After that, he pushed the wall from behind and a secret door appeared. The room inside was pitch black and no one could see what was going on.

Huang Jieshi waved to Chu Xiaomu and said, "Little brother, please follow Wang Mo in."

Chu Xiaomu didn't know why Huang Tianxiang wanted to give him something, so he looked at Bi Ye and listened to his arrangements.

Bi Ye smiled and said, "The gift Huang Tianxiang gave you must be extraordinary, so you don't have to be polite to him."

Chu Xiaomu agreed and followed Huang Jieshi into the dark room behind him.

I suddenly thought, "This wooden house called Fang Cun Room looks like a single room from the outside. The length and width are almost the same as those inside. How come there is a dark room at the back? This Huang Tianxiang is really mysterious and unpredictable."

When I stepped into the secret door, I saw a dim light in the dark room.

Chu Xiaomu looked around carefully, and saw all kinds of strange objects placed around the dark room... Starting from the left, near the secret door, there was a row of seven or eight purple-red wooden pillars carved with various patterns neatly placed on the side.

Next to a few wooden pillars stood two tall black cabinets. The cabinets looked simple and quaint, with large black locks hanging on the slender doors. No one knew what was locked inside.

Behind the cabinet were three old gray-black flags with strange patterns embroidered or painted on them. The first one was a strange long spear with a cross tip and a slight barb. The second one was embroidered with a simple human figure with long wings. The third one was a thin and strange human face that looked like it was carved with a sword. It looked a bit creepy.

Above these three flags hung a big-bellied, pointed-bottomed oil lamp. The lamp was lit, and the little finger-sized flame emitted a dark yellow light, which was extremely strange.

Behind the three flags was Huang Jieshi's long table. There were many things on the table, including ancient books, a triangular scepter, a stone inkstone, several brushes, and even a strange skull, which looked like a horse's head but had two broken horns. Chu Xiaomu couldn't tell what animal it belonged to.

Next to the skull was a small box with a black background and white patterns. There was a thin blood-red line along the edge of the box. When it was closed, it was tightly covered. No one knew what was inside.

Behind the desk is the right side, which is piled with various large and small strange objects. It is difficult to recognize so many of them at once.

Further on were two large bookcases more than ten feet high, filled with books, some thick and some thin, that looked much older than the books on the shelves outside the darkroom.

Huang Jieshi said, "Please wait a moment, little brother. Things are a bit messy and I need to look for them." As he spoke, he walked towards one of the two locked black cabinets.

Chu Xiaomu couldn't figure out what this mysterious and strange old man wanted to give him, so he could only wait obediently by the side.

Huang Jieshi slowly opened one of the cabinets, searched inside for a while, and finally took out a black and yellow object with a strange appearance. It turned out to be a face guard used by war horses. Then he waved to Chu Xiaomu, signaling him to go over and take it.

Chu Xiaomu didn't know whether he should accept Huang Jieshi's gift or not, and said, "I don't have much ability, but Huang Tianxiang gave me a rare gift. How can I justify this?"

Huang Jieshi said: "It's not a gift, but a return."

Chu Xiaomu was puzzled and asked in surprise: "Sir, do you mean to return this thing... this thing to me?"

Huang Jieshi pointed at Cheng Huang and said, "I'm not returning it to you, I'm returning it to it. But now you can also say that I'm returning it to you."

Chu Xiaomu did not go forward to take it, and said: "Mr. Huang, Qisheng is still young and can't use a face protector, or... or don't want it."

Huang Jieshi smiled and said, "Although he is small now, he will grow up one day, and very quickly... This thing originally belonged to him. How can I not return it to the owner today? If I continue to keep it for myself, I am afraid that people will scold Wangmo for being a greedy villain in the future."

Chu Xiaomu thought that this thing was just a horse head mask, not a valuable item. It was strange that Huang Jieshi said seriously that he wanted to return it to Qisheng. So he said, "Okay, then I'll keep it for Qisheng first." He walked forward and took it with both hands.

Huang Jieshi said: "Don't underestimate this thing. It was with it that Shenwu conquered Chenghuang. It is said that..." Halfway through his words, he saw Chu Xiaomu put the horse head face guard that he regarded as a treasure into his dirty and smelly pocket. He couldn't help but feel heartbroken and stuttered in anxiety: "You...you...you..."

Chu Xiaomu was stunned and asked, "What's wrong, sir?"

Huang Jieshi then realized that the thing had been returned to someone else. They could do whatever they wanted with it. Even if they threw it into the fire pit now, it was none of his business. He could only say, "It's nothing... But this thing is a treasure anyway. It must be cherished and must not be damaged, let alone thrown away."

Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "Please rest assured, sir. I will keep it well after I go back and will definitely not damage it."

Huang Jieshi said, "That's not necessary." But looking at Chu Xiaomu's bulging pockets, there must be a lot of miscellaneous objects in them, some of which might be sharp and could scratch the face guard, which made him feel sad again.

When Linchu Xiaomu came out of the secret door, he suddenly pulled his collar and whispered in his ear: "From now on, you must eat what Chenghuang asks you to eat..."

Chu Xiaomu didn't understand why, thinking that Qisheng was a grass eater, could it be that one day it thought some kind of weed was delicious and asked me to eat a few bites of it? He could only half-believe and half-doubt and agreed.

The two men came to the outside of the dark room, and Huang Jieshi closed the door. There was almost no trace of the secret door, and it was completely a complete wall.

Bi Ye frowned and said, "So you have been keeping the things of the Shenwu family." He naturally heard the two people talking outside the house.
