Chapter 17 You really want to know?


Chapter 17 Do you really want to know?

The stilted house fell into silence for a moment.

Fu Qingzhou looked calm, as if he was afraid that they could not see clearly, he slowly placed the jade plaque on the table and pushed it forward.

The silence was finally broken by the soft sound of the jade plaque rubbing against the table.

“Where did you get this jade plaque?”

The elder was the first to ask. He was no longer as angry as before, but his tone still contained ferocity: "We searched you when we came here to arrest you, and there was nothing like this on you!"

Fu Qingzhou disagreed and smiled softly: "You really want to know?"

The elder's face changed slightly, and Elder Yu also frowned and said: "What do you mean?"

"The jade of Mingjiange Pavilion" Card..."

Fu Qingzhou shrugged: "If someone could find and take it away casually, wouldn't it be a big deal?"

As he spoke, he reached out to take the jade token back and gently weighed it in his hand. Suddenly, he turned his hand over and the entire jade token disappeared.

The three elders were shocked, and even Hua Xiaolan's eyes widened and she was stunned.

Two seconds later, Fu Qingzhou turned his hand over again, and the jade tablet reappeared in his palm, and he put it back on the table.

"How is it?"

He raised the corner of his mouth: "Did you notice the change in spirit just now?"

Elder Yu and the elder did not speak, and at the same time looked at the particularly old Miao man.

“This is the elder of Ten Thousand Poison Mountain, Elder Ma.”

At this time, Hua Xiaolan’s red lips from behind opened slightly and reminded her at the right time: “If you have done any tricks, , will never escape his eyes."

She had a smile in her eyes, and although she said some rude words, she was reminding Fu Qingzhou to be careful.

"Uh..."

After Elder Ma was silent for a moment, he said with some embarrassment: "I am very sure that this jade tablet is indeed a mysterious jade, and I did not sense any spiritual disturbance just now... How is this possible..."

"Do you really want to know?"

Fu Qingzhou asked again with a smile.

This is just a simple magic trick of hiding cards in poker... This thing uses the palm of the hand to create a blind spot in the sight. No matter how good the eyesight of the three elders was, what they saw was that the jade card disappeared inexplicably between his fingers.

What's more, people have inertial thinking. When you know that this is a magic trick, it is not surprising, but if you subconsciously think that the jade token is hidden through some magical means, it is completely different.

In his previous life, he followed an old criminal police master to catch gamblers, and also went undercover with a retired old informant for a few days, learning some basic card-hiding techniques. Now, after practicing hard in prison for a few days, he finally had a chance to perform.

Hearing his question, the elder's face darkened, and he hesitated to speak. Finally, Elder Yu took up the embarrassing topic: "If this is really Mingjiange's unique method of hiding objects, it is inconvenient for us to know... ..."

"Yes."

Fu Qingzhou responded noncommittally, and glanced at the three elders: "Let me introduce myself again. My surname is Fu, Fu Qingzhou. I did not go through normal channels. Entering Mingjian Pavilion, I didn’t want to come to Ten Thousand Poison Mountain this time. I only came to Ten Thousand Poison Mountain when I accidentally fell into a curse while doing a task.”

“Originally, I was thinking about this. My identity is too sensitive and it would be bad to reveal it. It would be better to pretend to be an ordinary hunter, but now..."

He took a deep look at the elder, with a half-smile on his face: "My life is still important."

The elder's face turned blue and white, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "You, how are you? Proof? Just a jade token..."

"You really want to know?" Fu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes and asked the question for the third time.

He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, standing straighter than the flagpole. Although he was still a boy of fifteen or sixteen, he somehow looked like an experienced official in his thirties or forties.

The atmosphere in the room became oppressive at some point. The elder's eyebrows jumped.

After a few breaths of silence, he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "If you want to..."

"If I want to interfere in your internal affairs of Wandu Mountain, I can't prove my identity." It doesn’t make sense, right?”

Fu Qingzhou sneered and said, “Elder, who said I was interested in your internal affairs?”

The elder’s eyes widened and he didn’t seem to react. .

Elder Yu coughed lightly: "Master Fu..., if you have anything to say, you can say it directly."

Her words of "Sir" clearly indicate that she has acknowledged Fu Qingzhou's identity as "Mingjian Pavilion".

The elder glanced at her sideways, but she did not look away, her face did not change, her composure remained the same, her eyes were as deep as a pool of water, and she did not know what she was thinking.

Fu Qingzhou smiled: "I said, I just passed by Shiwandashan, and I just accidentally broke into Meng Zhugang's murder. I want to use my identity as an ordinary hunter to catch a traitor for you. Please help me. Let's see if there is a way to break the curse. As for Long DaBei... If there is trouble here, someone will come to solve it. It's not my turn."

Listen to him calling out the three words "Long DaBei". , the three elders' pupils shrank at the same time, and they all looked at each other.

But Fu Qingzhou hadn't finished his words yet: "As for you, elder."

He said quietly: "Although you injured me, I voluntarily stirred into this muddy water. No wonder you, I didn't mean to It’s just that if you insist on asking me to prove my identity, have you thought about the consequences?”

The early morning sunlight outside the window shone into the table, and the black jade plate reflected a mysterious dark light in the sunlight, reflecting the entire scene. The room rippled like the ocean floor.

The elder's expression changed again and again, and he could not speak for a long time.

At this moment, Elder Ma, who had always said little, said in a hoarse voice: "Mingjian Pavilion patrolled the hunt on behalf of Emperor Dayan. As soon as the 'Mingjian Knows the World' card was played, hundreds of officials bowed their heads... We are waiting for the common people. , I don’t dare to let you prove anything.”

"Yes!"

The elder is still struggling.

Fu Qingzhou looked at his unwilling look and sneered: "Why, the elder still wants to know the information in my cabinet? Or... he wants to send a letter to Beijing and ask the adults in the cabinet to read it "Roster?"

"Yes, if I am really a fake, then I will definitely die if I pretend to be such an identity. It is inevitable that some adults will come to the Wandu Mountain to take me away. Please take care of me." Let's find out where this kid came from, how dare he..."

"Sir!" This time, it was the elder who interrupted Fu Qingzhou.

There was determination and fear in his eyes, and he stood up.

Fu Qingzhou smiled at the corner of his mouth: "What's wrong?"

The elder took a deep breath: "No, there is no need to prove it. Since you have no interest in my sect's internal affairs, then... then please be patient. The elder will find a way to solve the curse for you..."

Fu Qingzhou squinted and smiled without saying a word.

Out of the corner of her eye, Hua Xiaolan lowered her head and smiled softly, then held it back.

The elder is not smart enough, so he can only order a little more.

Although the Wan Du Mountain sect is powerful, it is not as powerful as the imperial court. You, the elder, are now secretly forming a clique to rebel against the sect. The imperial court has no control over it, but you want to release the once great evil man Long Dabei. How do you still think about it? Use his power to establish his own business and break away from the jurisdiction of the court?

That’s all for a young boy now, but what if a bigger official comes to Beijing? Can you still hide it? Wouldn’t your many years of planning be ruined in one fell swoop?

His reaction was naturally seen in the eyes of Elder Yu on the side. She frowned and glanced at Hua Xiaolan behind her, but she happened to see her playful smile.

Elder Yu seemed to understand something, his brows relaxed slightly and he stood up.

"Master Fu."

She gently pushed the jade tablet back on the table: "Please take back your jade tablet and rest in the sect for a while. We will see if we can cure your curse. If you can't..."

"Just do your best." Fu Qingzhou smiled and clasped his fists: "If Wandu Mountain can't do it, I'll find a way back to Beijing."
