Mo Qian's heart stirred. He picked up the card and opened it. It was from Tang Wanhong, the shopkeeper of Gu Yuezhai, inviting him to come and appraise an old painting.

Called an appraisal, it was in truth asking him to take a look and give his opinion.

Thirty-two taels for the visit — a few months ago, that would have been a considerable sum to Mo Qian. These days, it was somewhat modest by comparison.

Even so, Mo Qian decided to go. For one thing, he had already agreed and did not want to bre

    The next day, Pan Yong, Yin Cong, and Mo Qian came out of the gate of Guanglu Yuan.Pan Yong and Yin Cong each had a small cloth bag tied at their waist, and both were going to the Medicine Pavilion to deliver medicine.Mo Qian walked behind the two, looking at a palm-sized iron disc in his hand.The disc was heavy and its inner mechanism was delicate.There was a round hole on the back of the disc, and the number ninety-five was displayed on the front. The digits were inlaid and held in place by complex mechanical springs.Along the front of the disc’s edge there was a ring-shaped groove, and six small holes were evenly spaced in the groove.Pan Yong said, “Everyone’s astrolabe is special, and the grooves are different. The number ninety-five on the plate represents your contribution points to the sect. Everyone starts with eighty-five points. Because we are here, there are more than ten extra points on top of the original.”“Don’t underestimate these ten points. You can take tasks a

    After a while, Shang Xiangyu suddenly added all the remaining bottles and jars of medicinal materials into the black tripods.“Hold your breath!”As soon as Shang Xiangyu finished speaking, a faint purple mist rose from the black tripods as the medicinal materials were added.The purple mist dissipated, and Mo Qian and the other three were still stirring with the stone pestles.“Stop.”After a while, following Shang Xiangyu’s order, the four of them stepped back.Shang Xiangyu was seen wandering back and forth between the four black tripods, and his loose silver hair was burned off by the red-hot edges of the tripods from time to time.But Shang Xiangyu’s eyes were focused and his figure was as fast as a ghost.After a few breaths, Shang Xiangyu suddenly flashed, picked up the tripod lids, and covered all four black tripods.After that, Shang Xiangyu sat cross-legged in a corner of the cave and closed his eyes to rest.Mo Qian, Pan Yong, Chen Hu, and Yin Cong put down the stone pestle

    Soon the bloody corpse wrapped by the vines began to ooze pus, and a layer of yellow juice floated up, and immediately a foul smell spread...Pan Yong said, “Let’s go. I can’t stand this smell. If I stand here for a while, I’m afraid I’ll vomit.”Mo Qian glanced at the base of the tree and saw a spider that had been rolled up by a vine. Before long it vanished into nothing, as if it had turned into juice and poured onto the vine...Mo Qian, Pan Yong, and Chen Hu walked out of the cave. At the entrance, Pan Yong locked the heavy iron door, then pressed the key and the bottle of poison powder into Mo Qian’s hand and said, “Junior Brother Mo Qian, from now on, the job of feeding the black blood vine with poison will be handed over to you. Once every three days.”Mo Qian put the key and the porcelain bottle into his sleeve and said obediently, “Yes, Senior Brother!”Pan Yong nodded, and the three of them walked out the way they had come, holding torches.Walking to the stone wall with vin

  • Chapter 437 Feeding the Black Blood Vine

    Mo Qian’s eyes jumped. He noticed that the rocks under Pan Yong’s feet had turned damp and black, as if black moss were growing on them.But Pan Yong had said that moss could not live here.Pan Yong said gravely, “Mo Qian, remember this! When you reach the place where the rock changes color, don’t go any farther. If you go forward, you will be attacked!”“Attacked?” Mo Qian frowned and looked around vigilantly. “Attacked by what?”He hadn’t found anything strange along the way.“The black blood vine.”“The black blood vine!?” Mo Qian walked slowly up beside Pan Yong. In the firelight of the torches the two held, he saw that in the depths of the cave not far away stood two trees, not tall, but with twisted trunks and covered with vines.If those could be called trees.With those two trees as the center, the rocks on the ground were as dark as ink.The two trees were dark.The two trees had sparse leaves, only a dozen or so on each tree.Each leaf was about the size of a palm, but the s

    After Pan Yong finished speaking, he turned and walked along the cliff in that direction, and Mo Qian immediately followed him.The two walked into the depths of the dense forest. Suddenly Pan Yong stopped at an open space in the forest and spread the two empty sacks in his hand on the ground.Mo Qian watched Pan Yong’s movements. Although he didn’t know what Pan Yong was doing, he knew that Pan Yong must be demonstrating something to him again.After spreading out the two empty sacks, Pan Yong suddenly turned his hand and a brown porcelain bottle appeared in it. He glanced at Mo Qian and said, “Be careful to hold your breath. This medicine powder is poisonous.”Mo Qian nodded. In fact, he had already held his breath the moment Pan Yong brought out the porcelain bottle.He had only just arrived, so he had to be careful everywhere.Pan Yong opened the bottle stopper and sprinkled the medicine powder on the two sacks spread out in the open space.After evenly sprinkling the powder on th

    The man’s heart was suddenly shattered, yet his face was still stiff with a happy smile.Shang Xiangyu looked closely and saw that the man was holding a yellow human-skin scroll in his hand, and in the dug-up grave there was a pile of white bones.Shang Xiangyu stared at the dead man, who had died with a strange smile on his face.This man was obviously happy because he had dug the human-skin scroll out of the grave, but he had been suddenly beaten to death by Shang Xiangyu.Shang Xiangyu bent down and grabbed the human-skin scroll, only to see that it was covered with dense small characters.Shang Xiangyu’s eyes moved. This was actually a secret technique.Jiuyou Dazangshu.The strange and wonderful thing about this technique was that it conceived a new method of cyclone-knotting.Using this technique to knot a cyclone could break through many shackles of the original method.However, there were many disadvantages to knotting a cyclone with this technique, such as being able to pract
