Chapter 817: The praying mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is behind (two more)


Xiahou Ting'an quietly entered the study room.
Because Xia Hourong had previously ordered that no one was allowed to enter the courtyard, it was quiet and quiet, with no one else.
Even if he found someone sneaking in, Xia Hourong didn't dare to say anything, but ran out on his own, trying to catch the person back himself.
Why?
Not a guilty conscience, worried that the person really heard something and spread the matter?
Therefore, the entire Xiahou Mansion was still silent, and there was no half-waves caused by the incident.
This is Xia Hourong's study room, not to mention ordinary people, even the young master in the mansion, and dare not approach it at will.
But Xiahou Ting'an is different.
He was cultivated by Xia Hourong as the heir, especially in the past two years, he has often been in and out of this place.
Therefore, he is very familiar with everything here.
He walked in and went straight to the table.
There were not many things on the table, so he glanced roughly and saw the pen holder light up.
Afterwards, he carefully moved the pen holder away a little bit.
Suddenly a secret box popped up under the table!
A bronze key is placed in it!
Xiahou Ting'an took out the key, turned and walked towards the small couch.
It is usually used by Xia Hourong to rest when he gets tired from reading.
When he walked to the small couch, Xiahou Tingan's hand rubbed its edge for a while before hearing a "click" sound!
The headboard of the small couch suddenly cracked in the middle!
Another secret box pops up!
A slap-sized black lacquered wooden box, quietly placed in a secret compartment!
At first glance, this black lacquered wooden box is very ordinary, but if you look closely, you can see that it is covered with a very light silver light pattern!
Xiahou Ting'an knew that in that wooden box was Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill!
And the silver light pattern on the outside is the barrier carried by the black lacquered wooden box itself!
He had heard from his father before that this Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill was the only nine-tier pill handed down from Taizu, and it was very precious.
And this black lacquered wooden box was made by Taizu himself, including the enchantment on it, which he laid himself!
For thousands of years of inheritance, although this barrier has been loosened, every emperor will reinforce it, so even today, this seal is still extremely powerful!
And because of this, this black lacquered wooden box has an extremely strong atmosphere, which is easy to find.
Therefore, Xiahou Ting'an came here today, intending to take away the pill directly!
This enchantment, relying solely on his own strength, naturally couldn't deal with it.
But-he has the key!
The most important thing is that there is a drop of Di Ji's blood on this key!
Therefore, it can easily break the barrier, thus opening this thing smoothly!
Looking at the black lacquered wooden box in front of him, Xiahou Ting'an swallowed hard, his throat became dry, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.
He was already nervous with sweaty hands, and he wiped his body quickly before holding the key and inserting it toward the lock on the wooden box.
Click!
Hearing only a small and crisp sound, the lock fell in response!
Xiahou Ting'an held his breath and slowly opened the box!
A red pill the size of a longan is quietly placed in it!
On top of that, there are nine clear golden lines!
It is indeed the Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill!
A rich fragrance drifted out.
Xiahou Ting'an took a breath, and immediately felt refreshed! Even the force in the body seems to become active!
He was secretly surprised.
The nine-pin pill is really well-deserved!
If you really take this pill... to temper your muscles and bones and improve your cultivation, it will definitely not be a problem!
Xiahou Ting'an suppressed the excitement in his heart and stretched out his hand to explore the Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill.
Of course, at this moment!
A cold wind suddenly hit!
Xiahou Ting'an only felt that a black shadow flashed in front of him, and then the Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill disappeared!
He was taken aback, and immediately looked up!
A mysterious person in a long robe is holding that Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill in his hand!
The other party covered it so tightly that even men and women could not be seen, let alone the appearance and figure.
Xiahou Ting'an was frightened and immediately rushed forward!
But the other party easily avoided his actions, put away the Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill, and left without nostalgia!
The figure was like a ghost, Xiahou Ting'an didn't even see the other's movements, and the man had disappeared!
Seeing the man ran away, Xiahou Ting'an didn't dare to shout out, and hurried to catch up!
But as soon as he rushed to the door, he found that the night outside was pitch black and he could no longer see the person!
Everything happened too fast, Xiahou Ting'an only felt that he was still immersed in the excitement and joy of getting the Nine Heavens Back to the Origin Pill for the last second, and then he was intercepted halfway in the next second, and there was nothing left!
Even if he wanted to chase, he didn't know where to chase at this time!
Xiahou Ting'an was full of resentment and anger, his fists clenched and creaked.
He tried his best to come here and find Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill, but he did not expect to be snatched away without any effort!
He choked on his chest in one breath, and he couldn't get up and down, and the suffocation was about to burst!
Xiahou Ting'an originally wanted to leave, but remembered that the endgame had not been cleaned up, so he had to confess his fate and go back.
Looking at the empty black lacquered wooden box, Xiahou Ting'an had the desire to die!
After all his thoughts, he never thought that he would be calculated!
That person was obviously following him, otherwise the enchantment outside would never enter!
The other party simply waited for him to find out the Jiuxiao Returning Yuan Dan, and then took the opportunity to start!
Xiahou Ting'an closed the wooden box again and locked the lock.
I don't know if it was his illusion, he always felt that after Jiu Xiao returned to the original pill, the silver light pattern on the black lacquered wooden box seemed to become a lot lighter.
But this has nothing to do with him!
Xiahou Ting'an put the keys back, restored some of them to the original state, and left unwillingly!
Simply his journey back was very smooth and was not discovered by anyone.
I was nervous and excited when I came, but frustrated and resentful when I left.
Xiahou Ting'an became suspicious, and every time he walked a distance, he had to check his surroundings for fear that someone would follow him.
Even though he himself knew that the other party had now obtained the Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill, he would definitely not follow him anymore.
But the shadow in his heart is lingering.
Back to the residence, Xiaodie was still sleeping on the bed.
Xiahou Ting'an kept his eyes open and sleepless all night.
The disappearance of Jiu Xiao Hui Yuan Dan will be revealed sooner or later.
At that time, he will definitely be listed as one of the doubters!
I wanted to use this Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill to improve my original vein level and strength, so that even if my father was angry, there was nothing he could do.
Everything will be logical.
But now, that thing was snatched by a third person!
If you find him again, a pot of dirty water will definitely be inevitable!
Xiahou Ting'an thought for a long time.
If it really doesn't work... he threatens the truth of Di Ji's death!
