Two treasure maps

Chapter 191 Numbers

Officer Xiang Tong sat at the chess table, his eyes fell on the checkered chessboard, and he sighed slightly in his heart.

Senior Brother Guo Xiu’s chess skills are always so superb, as if every move contains unfathomable wisdom.

He wanted to play another game of chess with his senior brother, but when he thought of the worries in the mermaid illusion, the obsession in his heart quietly dissipated.

He gently put down the chess piece to show his surrender.

"Big Brother, are you planning to lead the team into the mermaid fantasy, or do you choose to act alone?"

Mo Yan was silent for a moment, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Lead the team."

Xiang Tongguan took out a special quota token from his arms and handed it to Mo Yan: "With this token, you can choose the team at will and arrange them according to your wishes."

Mo Yan took the token but did not leave immediately.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Big Brother, do you have a number of skills that can teach you the art of Eagle Transformation?"

Hearing this, Xiang Tongguan's eyes flashed with surprise: "Who are you going to teach this Eagle Transformation Technique? This is not an easy task. It requires extremely high talent and understanding."

"Don't worry about it. Just tell me, do you have such money in your hands?" Mo Yan said lightly.

"Yes, there is, and his personality is gentle, making him suitable for teaching. But who do you want him to teach? Not everyone can learn it." Xiang Tongguan asked curiously.

"I'm just trying to see if it can learn this life-saving method." Mo Yan said as he held the little fox that Guo Lingli had transformed into in his hands.

Xiang Tongguan glanced at the little fox under the silk scarf which had no spiritual energy. He had noticed the existence of the little fox very early on. Although the silk scarf was blocking it, it still couldn't block his spiritual sense.

"This white fox doesn't seem to have any talent. It will probably be very difficult for it to learn the art of transforming into an eagle."

Mo Yan gently stroked the soft fur of the little fox through the silk handkerchief, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "I know this is difficult, but I want to give her a chance. The mermaid illusion is full of dangers. If she learns Shu Si's tricks, she may be able to escape danger at the critical moment."

Guo Lingli, who had transformed into a little fox, continued to play dumb and tried her best to ignore Mo Yan's hand that was petting the cat. Since she couldn't resist, she had to be obedient.

Seeing this, Xiang Tongguan said nothing more. He began to pack up the chess pieces on the chessboard and said, "Go to Dongzhongyuan and wait. I will send Shusi over."

Guo Lingli's fox ears moved. Shusi? What Shusi? Could it be the Shusi I was thinking of?

"Classic of Mountains and Seas·Classic of Western Mountains" records that on the Gaotu Mountain there is a bird that looks like an owl but has human feet. It is called Shusi. Eating it can cure goiters.

In connection with what they just talked about, the art of transforming into an eagle?

Is it true that eating its meat can cure the neck tumor disease? But I don’t have this disease.

Thinking of the joke that Leng Xing deliberately made about the human version of the spiral turtle "can be the bottom", maybe there are other explanations for "eating it and getting a gall", so it's better not to make up your own mind.

The Dongzhong Courtyard of the Holy Beast Sect stands tall in this ancient and mysterious land with its unique form.

It is not a courtyard in the ordinary sense, but a building that is truly modeled after a huge ancient bell. The bell body is majestic and the bell face is as smooth as a mirror, as if it can reflect the past years.

And at the place where the bell is struck, a portal is cleverly designed. The portal is not big, but it is large enough for people to pass through.

In the East Bell Courtyard, there are 7749 luminous pearls placed. These beads emit a soft and bright light in the darkness, like stars, illuminating the entire bell as if it were daytime.

Under the light, every detail is clearly visible, even the dust floating in the air seems to be given life.

The little fox transformed by Guo Lingli lay quietly in Mo Yan's arms. Under the illumination of the night pearl, her furry body looked particularly cute.

Mo Yan gently pinched the little fox's ears, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I know you are awake, do you still want to pretend to be unconscious?"

The little fox's eyes were full of grievance and dissatisfaction. He raised his two front paws angrily and pointed at his throat, as if accusing

"How could you do this to me? You turned me into a dumb little fox!"

Mo Yan felt relieved when he saw this, and a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

She coaxed him softly, "Okay, I know you feel wronged that you can't speak. Here, I'll give you this beast speech pill. After you eat it, you will be able to speak."

As he spoke, he took out a emerald green pill from his arms and handed it to the little fox's mouth.

Guo Lingli looked at the pill in front of her and couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.

She didn't know whether the pill would work or not, nor did she know whether it was poisonous.

However, in the face of absolute strength, she knew she had no choice.

She could only swallow the pill knowing nothing about it.

The pill melted in her mouth, and a cool air current instantly rushed through her throat, penetrated her brain, and penetrated into her dantian.

She just felt her body lighten, as if all her restraints were released.

She raised her head unconsciously and uttered a clear and long howl, which was melodious and full of joy and excitement.

She actually made a sound! She was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes.

During the year she was dumb in another time and space, she experienced loneliness and fear. Now she was turned into a dumb little fox again, and the feeling of despair came over her again.

But now, she could speak again! She almost cried out in joy at regaining hope from despair.

Mo Yan looked at the little fox's excitement and felt strange. Wasn't it just to let her be a little fox who couldn't speak for a while? Was it that serious?

Although he didn't understand, he could still feel the fear and relief in Guo Lingli's heart. He gently stroked the little fox's head and coaxed softly: "Okay, okay, don't cry. I was wrong, is that okay?"

The tiny mirror hanging around the little fox's neck suddenly emitted a dazzling light and fell into the East Bell Courtyard.

The light gradually faded, and a tall, slender, young man stood steadily in the yard.

He looked around, taking in the historical Dongzhong Courtyard, frowning slightly. He looked at Mo Yan in the center of the courtyard and said, "Master Mo Yan, what is it that makes you so serious?"

Mo Yan sat on a stone bench in the yard, stroking the relatively well-behaved little fox in his hand, and looking at the Son of the Emperor of Heaven who was ignorant of the sufferings of the world.

"Yin Jing, I see that you don't seem to know much about the strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, so I want you to see them for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Yin Jing opened the folding fan in his hand and gently fanned it. He sat opposite Mo Yan and asked, "Is this the Shu Si you mentioned?"

"Yes, it is Shu Si mentioned in the Western Classic of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. There are many versions of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, each with its own unique features, and the interpretations vary greatly. What is the description of Shu Si in the version of the Classic of Mountains and Seas that you have read?"

Yin Jing pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "The strange beasts I saw in the Classic of Mountains and Seas are different from what you have seen. However, there are many records about them in the Sutra Library at home. As for Shusi, I remember the book described it like this: On Gaotu Mountain, there is a bird that looks like an owl but has human feet. It is called Shusi. When I went there, it turned into an eagle."

Mo Yan knew that the strange beast that Yin Jing was talking about was a high-level strange beast, not the ordinary beast that people could see. After all, he was the son of the Emperor of Heaven, so he had some background.

"Do you know why there are inscriptions carved on the outer squares of the Holy Beast Sect?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the little fox Guo Lingli transformed into suddenly jumped up, waving her little paws and shouting, "I want to become a human! I want to talk to you on an equal footing!"

Mo Yan tapped her head lightly and said with a smile: "You are not qualified yet, listen carefully to what we are saying?"

The little fox curled its lips and lay back in Mo Yan's arms with some dissatisfaction.

In fact, what she wanted to say was that she had also read the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Although she had never seen a real exotic beast, the descriptions in the book made her full of yearning for those mysterious creatures.

She wanted to remind Yin Jing that it was "eating the gall" instead of "eating the eagle".

Seeing that Yin Jing and Mo Yan were having a serious conversation, she just snuggled in Mo Yan's arms and let him stroke her soft hair.
