Wet viviparity

Chapter 44 Jewelry, Fire Watch Tower
What is jewelry for?

It is used to sacrifice and refine the precious eye.

Ji Ming had long wanted to use the sacrificial and refining technique he had obtained from Master Bonni, but just like the case of refining magical instruments, he lacked the materials.

This is the disadvantage of working alone, there is no platform to support your needs in practice.

This ritual refining technique is called "Baoguang Qi Refining Method".

The priest needs to build a Yin Corpse Fire Altar and continuously refine the jewels to burn out wisps of precious energy, so as to refine his own magic weapon.

What Ji Ming was concerned about was the treasure refining method and the sacrificial refining technique, both of which used the Yin Corpse Fire Altar system.

He secretly speculated that these two methods should have originated from the same inheritance, but he didn't know the foundation of this inheritance.

Bent over the desk, studying the method of refining Baoguang Qi for a while, Ji Ming sensed the location of the White Bone Heart Pearl in Yu Xiao's body.

He ordered Yu Xiao to take the treasure alone, with two intentions.

One is to study the art of sacrifice and refining alone, and the other is to see whether Yu Xiao is completely obedient.

If you obey, you can still use it in the garden for a while.

If not, then they would naturally use the white bone heart bead hidden in his body to bite through his heart and then kill him.

After exiting the secret passage, Yu Xiao did not dare to delay for even a second and went straight to the treasury in the garden and drove away the servants guarding there.

But at the moment of entering the warehouse, his whole body felt cold from head to toe.

In the huge warehouse, except for the strings of coins scattered on the shelves, the rest of the gold sand and silver beads have disappeared.

When he entered the treasury again, the jewels such as the beryl, water jade, carnelian, agate, and red pearls hidden there were already empty.

Here, only a few porcelain plates in the shape of jewels remain.

"I"

Yu Xiao's eyes turned black due to his agitated mind.

"Junior sister!"

He hurriedly ran out of the treasury and wanted to go straight to Zhang Xinmei's residence.

He knew that Zhang Xinmei must have some self-defense method given by her master, and he might be able to find a little protection from her.

Halfway through his run, Yu Xiao suddenly stopped, shook as if in response to stress, touched his head, and turned back again.

Those who cherish life and those who are heroes are the best at judging others by themselves.

The centipede monster dared to let him out alone, so he must have a foolproof countermeasure, and besides, he was afraid.

"Little ghost brings fortune!"

In the treasury, Yu Xiao forced himself to calm down. He smelled a negative energy on a wall and immediately understood what was going on.

It seems that the calmness in the courtyard is just on the surface. In fact, the inside has been thoroughly understood. His junior brothers are really a bunch of idiots, and those independent people are even worse than idiots.

Yu Xiao sighed inwardly, "If only I hadn't been controlled by him."

Now is not the time to think about these things. He is already busy taking care of himself and cannot care about these idiots. He has to report this matter quickly.

Although he didn't take the treasure, it was not his fault. I think the flying centipede monster should understand.

In the darkroom.

Ji Ming was sitting on the table, holding a brush, dipped in a little ink, and drawing on the paper a method of setting up a fire altar for the Yin corpse.

The corpse altar used for refining treasures last time has room for improvement, so it can be more ventilated, which will make the fire on the altar bigger.

Ji Ming was painting and writing, and he was in a good mood.

"coming!"

Feeling the approach of his own magic weapon, Ji Ming knew that Yu Xiao had already turned back.

"Your Majesty!"

Yu Xiao approached and shouted.

Whenever Ji Ming heard Yu Xiao calling him "the King", he always felt very uncomfortable, as if some monster or demon always liked to be called the King. He really didn't know where this trend came from.

"Reporting to the king, the seven buckets of jewels have been stolen by the Taoists." Seeing that his first sentence did not elicit any reaction from the centipede monster in front of the table, Yu Xiao's face turned pale and he continued speaking.

"Daoists are short of money, and before becoming Daoists, they need gold and silver goods to support themselves.

There is a remnant of evil spirit on the west wall of the treasury. They must have set up an altar and performed a ritual, secretly sending little demons to carry away the treasures in the treasury."

"where are they?"

"The little devil is short of strength and can't move far. They must be nearby."

"I understand, let's go!"

Ji Ming stood up from the table and waved his long hand.

A small bead broke out from Yu Xiao’s chest and rolled into his palm.

Yu Xiao would not really think that he didn't know that he was leaving the warehouse and wanted to rush to Madam Zhang's residence. Now Yu Xiao could not be kept.

"A hero from the grass roots."

Looking at Yu Xiao's body, Ji Ming commented in his heart.

Indoors, Ji Ming tied the poison seed bag and the storage bag on the two joints.

These were all seized from Yu Xiao. One is used to store poison seeds, and the other is used to store daily valuables.

This bag seems to be made of the stomach of some animal, and the space inside is about one cubic meter.

Therefore, he could only put some unread Taoist books and notes in the room, as well as important commentary books, especially the two volumes of the illustrated book on the Great Zhoutian Talisman, into his bag.

The Taoists sent their little ghosts to steal the treasures, and he was in urgent need of the jewels, so it was like a stroke of luck to him.

If they were Taoists at the Qi Refining Stage, I might have been a little timid, but they were just a few small Taoists who dared to take advantage of the situation and rob people here.

Ji Ming suddenly realized that he was no different from that Taoist, and was one of those who took advantage of the situation to rob this garden.

Having fallen from the moral high ground, Ji Ming did not feel the slightest bit of shame in his heart. He had already mastered the skill of being thick-skinned.

As soon as I climbed out of the secret passage, I saw a few people scattered in the building.

They sneaked into the building, flipped through books, and knocked on the walls and the ground, trying to find the secret passage.

Ignoring these thieves, Ji Ming spread his wings and flew out of the building.

The sun was high in the sky and the view was wide. Ji Ming did not dare to fly high. He flew along the roof, waving his antennae like a whip, catching the smells in the air.

Taoist practitioners who practice the Small Zhoutian Kung Fu have always liked to burn incense to calm their minds, but the witch's disciples do not have the wealth to support the consumption of auxiliary incense for practice.

Here, Ji Ming captured two scents.

One was the poisonous fragrance from Madam Zhang's residence, and the other came from the Fire Watchtower in the north of the garden.

"The Fire Watch Tower is high up and has a commanding view of everything in the village. The Taoist who stole the treasure is very careful."

Ji Ming quickly disembarked and shrank back.

He bit the two loose bags and flew to a well in the garden. He used his poison hook to pry open the bricks and stones under the well and hid the bags inside.

When the light above the well gradually darkened and some stars fell, Ji Ming's body shrank again, shrinking to the extreme, as small as a ladybug.

A cold wind blew in the well, carrying the tiny centipede out of the well and toward the fire watchtower.

On that floor, there was a man and two women, forming a triangle, each sitting cross-legged on the observation deck upstairs.

In the middle of them was a square table covered with a black cloth, with an incense burner and candlesticks on it. In the middle were three wooden plaques with people's names and their birth dates engraved on them.

The Taoist priest with a sallow complexion, wearing a cassock, looked neither a monk nor a Taoist. He raised his hands and said, "It is almost midnight, the Yin time has arrived, we can open the altar to expel the ghosts."

"We must find the Xinmeishe and obtain the Small Zhoutian Talisman diagram tonight." A Kundao (female Taoist) on the left said seriously.

"There are also Taoist books in the building, please remember them, brother."

The other Kun Dao reminded with a bit of coquettishness.
