Chapter 428 Jade Buddha
After putting on his clothes, Chu Qing randomly found a mask and put it on, then walked out of the room.

A maid who was also wearing a mask bowed to Chu Qing and said softly:
"Dear guest, please come with me."

"Do you know who I'm looking for?"

"know."

The maid whispered:
"Sister Yi Hai has already told you, please follow me."

"it is good."

Chu Qing was a little surprised. With such a service attitude, how could Wanbaolou not make money?

He truly deserves such a great reputation in the world.

Following the maid, Chu Qing soon arrived at the door of a room.

The maid opened the door and led Chu Qing in.

After entering the room, I saw an octagonal table in the middle. In the middle of the table, a candle was lit. There were three people sitting on the chairs, waiting quietly.

Seeing Chu Qing coming in, several people cast their eyes over to him, but after a quick glance, they looked away.

The Yibao Bureau on the third floor cannot reveal its identity.

On the one hand, it is to avoid being tempted by money and then being killed after getting the treasure.

But this aspect does not account for a very large proportion.

After all, Wanbao Tower itself has a lot of treasures... If you take out a few of them, it would be enough to stir up a bloody storm in the world.

The main purpose is to avoid trouble.

The Yibao Bureau does not ask where you come from or where you are going.

If you see it, you see it. If you get it, you get it.

Don’t buy it then and don’t ask about it afterwards.

There is no point in asking, Wanbaolou will not reveal it, and the person selling the things also hides his identity, so there is no way to trace him.

It doesn't matter whether this thing was obtained from robbery, tomb raiding, or fraud...it doesn't matter.

Wanbaolou will not pursue the matter. It does not know who the seller is, and it is not clear who the buyer is.

In the end, it naturally came to nothing.

But if they reveal their identities to each other, the result will be completely different. It will involve a wide range of people and no one can predict what will happen in the end.

Chu Qing silently walked over to the chair and sat down, his eyes moving over the three people one by one. However, with such attire, unless one had X-ray vision, it would be impossible to tell their origins.

Of course, Chu Qing can also use the method of changing the sky and striking the earth to explore the secrets in the hearts of these people.

But doing so would be considered breaking the rules of Wanbaolou.

He came here only for Tianfo Temple. Now that the clue is right in front of him, he will naturally not create any unnecessary trouble.

I just don’t know, among these three, which one is Wan Chunhua?

It didn't take long before more people arrived.

An octagonal table is suitable for eight people.

After the seats were full, the masked maid came in and spoke softly:
"Hello, distinguished guests. The Yibao Game is about to begin. Before that, let me explain the rules of the Yibao Game to you.

“First, it’s all voluntary and cannot be forced.

“Second, think twice before you act so you won’t regret it later.

“Third, avoid conflict, as harmony brings wealth.

"If any distinguished guest violates any of the above three points, Wanbaolou will ask you to leave. Please do not embarrass me."

After she finished speaking, she closed the door and stood quietly by the side, saying nothing.

As the door closed, the entire room seemed to be instantly isolated from the outside world.

There was not a single sound.

The eight people present were silent. After a moment, someone coughed and deliberately changed his voice and said:

"I have something, please appreciate it."

Chu Qing looked in the direction of the voice and saw the man coming in with a box in his hand.

At this time, he placed the box on the table, opened it, and took out a Buddha statue.

He placed the object next to the candle, and everyone looked at it carefully. The object was made entirely of white jade, and the Buddha statue had a solemn appearance. Under the lingering flame, a round of Buddha light was reflected behind it.

A mysterious feeling suddenly filled the air.

Chu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and then heard someone speak in surprise:
"With dignified appearance, he sympathizes with the suffering of all living beings.

"Is this the Jade Buddha Vairocana from the Great Xumi Monastery in the Western Regions?"

After these words fell, someone beside Chu Qing also spoke:
“I heard that the Jade Buddha of Vairocana is the most precious treasure of the Great Sumeru Temple, and it contains infinite mysteries. Some people even speculate that the Jade Buddha may contain the Great Sumeru Temple’s supreme Dharma [Mahavairocana Tathagata Sutra].

"I was wondering why the holy monk Kāśyapa from the Great Sumeru Monastery, who is a foreigner, would suddenly come here... So he came for you?"

Chu Qing suddenly remembered the holy monk he met when he was having dinner with Huangfu Yixiao that day.

It is said that this person has been reincarnated eight times, but it is not known whether it is true or not.

Judging from what Huangfu Yixiao said, this man must have unparalleled martial arts skills, and he is also a Buddhist, so he should not be bewitched by external things.

But if it is for the treasure of the Great Xumi Temple... then it makes sense.

The owner waited until they finished speaking before speaking coldly:
"If you are interested in this treasure, I will make an offer."

"what do you want?"

A slightly aged female voice sounded.

The owner was silent for a moment and said:
“Something that can increase internal strength, such as elixirs or secret manuals of magical skills.

“Depending on the quality, the demand is different.

"If there is none, I want one person's life."

"who?"

The person who spoke this time was still the one next to Chu Qing.

His voice sounded slightly old, but it was impossible to tell his true tone.

This time, the room suddenly became silent.

After a while, the man slowly spoke:
"Emperor Wu... Li Juechen!"

As soon as these words were spoken, one could hear a pin drop in the entire room.

Chu Qing subconsciously glanced at the maid standing in the corner of the room.

But there was no emotion in her eyes beneath the mask.

Chu Qing's heart was slightly touched.

Others don’t know the identities of the people sitting here, but the people in Wanbao Tower definitely know.

And when Li Juechen's name suddenly appeared here, the maid didn't even show a trace of surprise.

Chu Qing couldn't help but suspect that Wanbaolou had already planned this.

Emperor Wu Li Juechen!
What on earth had he done that caused someone to steal the Jade Buddha of Vairocana from the Great Sumeru Temple and come to the Wanbao Tower to hire someone to kill him?

In addition, Chu Qing has always felt that Wanbao Tower must be closely related to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

It is very likely that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are supporting Wanbao Tower from behind, otherwise, the business would not have been carried out to such an extent.

This person mentioned in Wanbao Tower that he wanted to kill Li Juechen...is he really not worried that Wanbao Tower will prevent him from seeing the sun tomorrow?

Or is it that the relationship between Wanbao Tower and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors is completely different from what Chu Qing guessed?

His mind raced through thousands of thoughts in an instant, then returned to silence.

Looking at the other people in the office, no one said a word.

I wonder if he was scared by the three words "Li Juechen", or if he had other plans?
After a while, the woman with a slightly vicissitudes of life voice slowly said:
"Li Juechen...who can be the rival of the current Martial Emperor?"

"Looking across the world, the only people who can kill the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are those among them."

Someone else said with a smile: "This brother must have come to the wrong place. Looking for someone to kill Emperor Wu here... You are so smart.

“Although the Jade Vairocana Buddha is good, one must be alive to enjoy it.

“Besides, after all, no matter how good this thing is, it’s not worth killing one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors for it.

"How can someone who has the ability to kill the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors take the treasures of the Great Xumi Zen Temple seriously? Even if the peerless martial arts of the Great Xumi Zen Temple were placed in front of him, he might not even take a second look at it."

This certainly makes sense.

It is obviously not enough to kill one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors who are unrivaled in the world just by relying on this jade Buddha.

The owner's expression was hidden behind the mask and could not be seen clearly, but from his clenched hands it could be seen that he was not calm.

But he still suppressed his intense emotions and said:

"So, if you can't kill, consider bartering."

Chu Qing slowly spoke at this time:
"I want to know the reason."

"What reason?"

The cargo owner looked at Chu Qing.

"The reason for killing Emperor Wu."

Chu Qing raised his eyes.

After he said this, someone immediately echoed:
"Yes, I also want to know... Why do you have to kill this Martial Emperor Li Juechen? He is the leader of the righteous path after all. Now that the evil cult is acting recklessly in the martial arts world, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors should suppress evil with righteousness... Hmm, are you a member of the Heavenly Evil Cult?"

"put……"

He finally held back the word "fart". He silently took back the Jade Buddha Vairocana and said softly:
“The reason for killing Emperor Wu is simple, because he is not worthy of being a human being.

"He is obsessed with martial arts, but now his martial arts skills have reached the pinnacle. I don't know if he is crazy. There is no way forward, but he feels that the way is hidden among the common people.

"So, he captured ordinary people, peeled their skin, pulled out their tendons, studied every inch of their bones, and checked every meridian...

“I want to use this to comprehend the supreme secret and create a great magical power that is unprecedented in history.

“So far, tens of thousands of people have died at his hands.

"I almost fell into his hands."

"How dare you say that?"

The woman said in a deep voice:
"If this happened, how could no one know about it?"

"If the Emperor Wu did something that he didn't want anyone to know about, who would have discovered it?"

The owner said calmly:
“He has many methods, such as changing his appearance and going directly into the city to arrest people. Who knows who he is?

“Not only ordinary people, but even disciples in the sect who should have a bright future could hardly escape his clutches.

"He randomly created a so-called demon, and a Martial Emperor issued an order for all sects to send their disciples to slay the demon.

"During the process, who could have seen the person who was abducted by the so-called 'devil' alive?

"Not to mention... the martial arts academy."

"Martial Academy?"

A person who had been silent all of a sudden asked:

"The Martial Academy was founded by Emperor Wu in order to spread martial arts throughout the country, strengthen the people and the race, and set a precedent for all eternity.

"Children from ordinary families can also enter the Martial Academy to practice the Martial Emperor's unique skills... I don't know how many people have spread the word about this good news.

"What's the problem?"

"Practicing the Martial Emperor's unique skills? Do you know what the so-called Martial Emperor's unique skills are?
“Where did it come from?

“To put it bluntly, the martial arts academy is nothing more than a fenced-in pigpen and kennel.

"Those inside were all pigs, dogs, cows and sheep that he could take at will. He could gut them and take out their hearts and marrow at will.

"The common people are ignorant and just think that practicing martial arts will inevitably lead to injuries. Who knows...how did they die?"

After the owner finished speaking, his tone became slightly impatient:

"Do you want this thing or not? If not, I will take it back."

In silence, someone took out a small bottle:

"There are first-grade Creation Pills in here, a total of thirty-seven pills, which can save you twenty years of hard training."

"not enough."

The owner shook his head.

The man snorted, took out a secret book from his arms and placed it on the table:
“I came across this secret book by chance, and what it contains is extraordinary.

“If it wasn’t for the conflict with my internal energy, I would never have taken it out… If you are willing, I will exchange this bottle of first-grade Creation Pill and this secret book for your Vairocana Jade Buddha.

"If you don't want to, then forget it."

The owner hesitated and said:
"Can I take a look at the secret book?"

"No."

The man said:

"There are many people who can remember everything they see. If you wrote it down right after reading it, and you already knew the secret book... what should I do?"

"Then please ask Wanbaolou to be fair."

The owner of the goods glanced at the maid not far away.

She walked up to him and said softly:

“I don’t have the ability to be impartial, but I can take this secret book to the experts in my Wanbao Tower to have a look, so that they can give a fair estimate.

"I just don't know...whether this distinguished guest would allow it?"

“…You cannot copy it, and you cannot read the whole article.”

"It's natural."

"I believe in the credit of Wanbaolou. You can take it."

The man handed the secret book to the maid, who turned and went out, returning after a moment.

Her hands were empty, and she said:
"The secret book has been sent away, Shao Qing will take it back soon, and you can continue your Yibao game."

Although this transaction has not been completed, it is halfway done.

The first-grade Chuangyuan Pill and the Vairocana Jade Buddha were each taken back by their owners, who were only waiting for Wanbao Tower to give the results of the secret book appraisal so that they could continue the transaction.

At this moment, a deal actually appeared in front of Chu Qing.

[Trigger the commission: Assassinate Emperor Wu Li Juechen! ]

【Do you want to receive it? 】

Chu Qing looked at the system prompt and was silent for a while.

The last time the Lord of Soldiers gave a system prompt, it was in blood-red font.

It's kind of difficult, but it can be done.

But this time... the commission font that appeared looked as if it had just been fished out of blood, with blood still dripping down.

It can be seen that it is definitely not easy to kill Emperor Wu Li Juechen.

Besides, he is one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors after all.

No matter how much evidence there is, Chu Qing cannot easily make a judgment about what kind of person this is.

You have to see it with your own eyes before you can make a decision.

Therefore, he hesitated for a while and put the task aside for the time being, planning to deal with it later.

Just as Chu Qing was thinking this, he heard someone say:
"I want to restore someone's memory. Do you have any ideas?
"Whether it's medicine, secret techniques, or anything else, as long as it doesn't harm yourself, it's all fine.

"As for the reward, it is a promise... a promise from the First Way!"
