Little did Tan Xiu expect that this box was actually made from the wood of the Life-Returning Wood. The Life-Returning Wood was considered a good wood in the Immortal World. Many cultivators who had just embarked on the path of cultivation would use the wood of the Life-Returning Wood to make long swords for practicing their swordsmanship. This wood was very tough and full of vitality. Even the life force contained inside was very slow, so it could be used to make long swords and wear them. It also had a calming effect.
Extravagant!
Using the Life-Returning Wood to store things was absolutely extravagant in Tan Xiu's opinion. After all, this was Earth, far from the rich resources in the Immortal World. All of a sudden, he faintly looked forward to what was inside the box.
He opened the lid.
Tang Xiu could clearly see a strand of weasel hair placed inside. The silver weasel hair didn't look special, but as a cultivator, he could keenly sense that each strand of weasel hair was surging with spiritual force like a clear spring. After a while, his eyes narrowed and he instantly released his spiritual sense.
"These are …"
Tang Xiu was shocked. Despite his vast experience and knowledge, he had never heard of anyone who would engrave ancient characters on a piece of weasel bristle. Furthermore, each piece of weasel bristle was engraved with extremely small characters that were used to compose an entire cultivation technique.
That's right!
It was a cultivation technique!
There were at least hundreds of strands of this weasel bristles, which meant that there were hundreds of cultivation techniques recorded in each strand. In fact, every cultivation technique had the most suitable moves and Dharma spells for actual combat.
"At the very least, you'll need to use a 100-fold microscope to see the characters on these bristles. Which powerhouse actually recorded all the cultivation techniques of a small sect on them? These cultivation techniques may be ordinary, but they're supreme classics for ordinary people. If I wasn't a Supreme in the Immortal World, perhaps I would've been ecstatic to get these classics. "
Tan Xiu retracted his spiritual sense and looked at Ji Mu with a faint smile, asking, "Are you really giving this to me?"
"Yes!" Ji Mu nodded seriously. "What's given is equal to spilled water, and it's hard to take it back."
Tan Xiu snapped his fingers and waved to Mo Awu, saying, "Take him to any room and teach him how to identify the human body's acupoints and meridian routes. Tomorrow morning, I need him to memorize all the main acupuncture points and meridian routes in his body. "
"Yes!"
Mo Awu nodded respectfully.
Ji Mu was stunned. Although he was very resourceful, his brain still short-circuited at this moment. After a long while, he woke up from his daze. Ecstasy climbed onto his face. He jumped up from the sofa and was about to kowtow to Tan Xiu. However, Tan Xiu stopped him and did not even give him an explanation.
Ouyang Lulu, who was sitting cross-legged at the table, watched Ji Mu leave with Mo Awu with a pleasantly surprised face. Only then did she curiously turn her head and asked, "You taught him a cultivation technique so easily? Or is the thing he gave you very precious? "
Tan Xiu said with a smile, "Every weasel bristle here is engraved with a cultivation method and a move, and even records of magical spells. Their Ji Family owns the entire treasure vault, yet they are completely unaware of it. Since he wants this opportunity, then I'll give it to him. "
Sitting on a treasure mountain and not knowing it?
Ouyang Lulu was at a loss whether she had to cry or laugh as she glanced at the corridor where Ji Mu left. She shook her head helplessly and smilingly said, "The Ji Family is really interesting."
At this moment.
Jin Shi strode in from the door and respectfully said, "I caught a very interesting person, Boss."
Tan Xiu stared blankly and asked with a confused expression, "A very interesting person? What do you mean? "
"He's called Mouse, a local snake in Shanghai," said Jin Shi. "He's in charge of Shanghai's intelligence network. As long as it's a big incident in Shanghai, from whose daughter-in-law's underwear was stolen to a small murder case, he can get the results as long as he investigates it. What's interesting is that some people in the military sometimes buy intelligence from him in order to solve major cases. Just before we caught him, the military spent 1 million yuan to buy the recent major criminal cases in Shanghai from him. "
"What a powerful guy!" Tan Xiu was surprised. "The intelligence network he runs is even stronger than the people from the State Intelligence Department. But what do you mean by catching him? "
"I think you need such a talent, Boss." Jin Shi smiled. "He's very capable, but he regards money as his life."
Tan Xiu squinted his eyes and said, "Bring him in."
"Understood!"
Two minutes later.
Jin Shi brought Mouse to the living room. As soon as they met, Mouse sneakily glanced at Ouyang Lulu. To be exact, he was looking at the jade carving hanging on her neck.
"1 … 3 million. How about selling this jade carving to me for 3 million?" Mouse asked with a face full of expectation.
Ouyang Lulu rolled her eyes and sneered, "3 million? Are you dreaming? Or did you have a fever? Since you can recognize its material, do you think it's only worth 3 million? "
"Ugh …"
Mouse was speechless and reluctantly moved his eyes away. Let alone 3 million, even 30 million was not enough to buy this jade carving.
Tan Xiu immediately found it interesting after hearing it. He looked at Mouse's sneaky appearance and the disappointment on his face. He clapped his hands and smilingly said, "Treacherous, cunning, and someone who regards money as his life. This kind of character, on the other hand, was the capital of a capable person in a certain field. You're Mouse, right? "
Mouse's complexion changed and he smiled obsequiously with cupped hands. "Greetings, Boss. This Mouse will be at your beck and call later. If you have a mountain of gold and silver that you need someone to manage, I'll recommend myself. I'm absolutely confident that I can manage it well. Also, I guarantee that there will be times when Mouse doesn't steal oil to drink. "
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "I heard that you have a very powerful intelligence network in Demonic City. Tell me about it. The more you tell me, the more valuable you are and the more capable you are. If you want to make a living here, I must see your ability. "
Mouse straightened his chest and said, "The number of people in Demonic City who are willing to provide me with intelligence is more than 200,000. There are also tens of thousands of people who have earned intelligence fees from me. It's a pity that Demonic City is too small and I haven't been able to fully display my talents. Otherwise, the world's famous Darkwind organization would be nothing but a fart. "
Tan Xiu slapped the table and laughed loudly. "Good, good, good. That's a good spirit. I'm starting to like you even though it's the first time we met. Mouse, tell me who's the real culprit behind the recent murders in Demonic City? "
Mouse glanced at the brewed tea on the table and grinned. "I'm a bit thirsty, Boss."
"Hah!"
Tan Xiu happily replied.
Mouse picked up the small teacup and gulped down the fragrant tea in it. Then, he wiped the water on his lips with his dirty sleeve and grinned. "I really don't know the background of the culprit, but I know the name of the leader. However, I knew the name of their leader. His name was Austin Cole. He brought along a dozen or so seemingly troublesome characters with him, and he lived in the Night Road Hotel in the Serene District. It's a very ordinary hotel where you can stay without ID registration if you spend more money. He's been in contact with Xie Zhiqiang, the owner of Mind Assembly Biotechnology, but I don't know the details. "
"It's nothing special that Austin Cole is in contact with the owner of Mind Assembly Biotechnology," Tan Xiu frowned. "But why does he want to commit murder in Demonic City?"
"I don't know." Mouse shook his head. "The territory I control is very small, so I can't extend my hands abroad."
Tang Xiu then looked at Jin Shi and said, "Find the person in charge of the Everlasting Feast Hall's intel network in Demonic City. Also find the people in charge of the 10 cities closest to Demonic City."
"Understood!"
Jin Shi knew that Tan Xiu had a big move and immediately left to execute it.
A glint flashed in Mouse's eyes as he squinted and asked, "Boss, I have a question to ask you, but I don't know if I should ask it."
"Get straight to the point. I don't like to beat around the bush."
Tan Xiu lightly said.
"What kind of existence is the Everlasting Feast Hall, Boss? It shouldn't be … an ordinary restaurant, right? "
"Do you really want to know?" asked Tan Xiu with a smile. "Once you know, you'll really be tied to this chariot of mine and can't get out."
Mouse was startled and subconsciously didn't want to hear Tan Xiu's answer. But after hesitating for a moment, he decided to continue asking, "I want to know."
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and slowly raised his right arm. An invisible airflow rotated around Mouse, and in a short time, Mouse's body floated up. He struggled with a horrified expression as Tan Xiu hung him a meter above the ground and performed dozens of movements in one breath.
"The people of the Everlasting Feast Hall can't be called mortals. The Everlasting Feast Hall's foundation can destroy any huge organization in the world. The future wealth of the Everlasting Feast Hall can surpass countless banks. The future status of the Everlasting Feast Hall will surpass any country and any organization in the world. "
Tan Xiu's words were sonorous and powerful. It drilled into Mouse's ears and shook him to the point that his soul almost left his body.
"You … are you a human or a ghost?"
Mouse screamed.
Tan Xiu waved his hand and threw Mouse out of the door. When he fell in the courtyard and rolled a few meters away, an airflow rolled him up and pulled him back to the living room. Looking at Mouse's dizzy and disoriented state, Tan Xiu smilingly said, "I'm an immortal cultivator, and the core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall are also immortal cultivators. Have you seen those Xianxia movies? Those cultivators who can ride their flying swords are far from displaying even 1% of our abilities. "
Mouse's pupils shrunk and a horrified expression burst from his eyes. After Tan Xiu withdrew the airflow that wrapped around him, Mouse's feet had just landed on the ground when he immediately knelt in front of Tan Xiu and shouted, "Immortal … no, Boss, I'm willing to serve you. I, Mouse, am willing to sell my life to you. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west even half an inch. If you tell me to go to the sky, I'll never go down to the ground. "
Tan Xiu looked at him with a faint smile and didn't say anything.
Mouse seemed to be afraid that Tan Xiu wouldn't trust him, so he stretched out his finger and vowed, "Boss, I, Mouse, want to be a powerful immortal cultivator like you. I want to have formidable power. I'll definitely be loyal and loyal to you in the future. Really … "
