He took it off, took it out, and patted the contents of the bag with his hand. He acted mysteriously without saying a word, hinting that the item was in his hands and that it was here.
Niu Youdao's eyes lit up. "You scared me. You're empty-handed. I thought you had failed. Why are you hiding under your crotch? I told you that I'm controlling her. It's okay to be direct."
Ao Feng: "I'm scared. Can't I feel more at ease if there are two pieces of cloth covering me?"
"Heh, I think you're used to hiding things under your crotch. At a time like this, it's fine for you to openly carry things around, but if people find out that you're hiding something under your crotch, they'll be suspicious, "Niu Youdao said, his eyes filled with excitement as he reached for his pocket.
Ao Feng pushed his hand out to block, and the thing he was holding shrank back.
Niu Youdao frowned. "What do you mean?"
Ao Feng: "You won't burn the bridge after crossing it, will you?"
Niu Youdao: "Why would I tear down the bridge? If the bridge was torn down, how were they going to get the things out? If you go out, you'll be searched, and you'll have to take the things out. What are you thinking? "
Ao Feng was only worried. It was normal for someone to do evil. However, the other party's words made sense. Without him, the other party would not be able to get the item out. He handed over the item in his hand and laughed dryly. "I was too nervous. I was just joking to relax."
"What's there to be nervous about? I think you're gauging the heart of a gentleman with your own mean measure." Niu Youdao grumbled as he snatched the black bag away.
As soon as the opening of the bag was loosened, a faint red light shone out. Peeking through the opening of the bag, there was indeed a pile of fruits.
Of course, he had to confirm whether it was real or fake. Niu Youdao took one out and sniffed it. He smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad."
Actually, he didn't even need to smell it to know whether it was real or fake. Although the real thing and the fake thing were similar, the feeling was completely different.
He put the things back into the bag, tied it up, and threw it back to Ao Feng while looking around.
Holding the black bag, Ao Feng asked curiously, "Aren't you nervous or scared at all? You don't look nervous at all. "
Niu Youdao: "What's the use of being nervous and scared?"
Ao Feng gave him a thumbs up. "Brother, you're the one who's truly ruthless. You're born to do bad things. You didn't even bat an eyelid the entire time, and I've never seen you fear anything. I can't do it. Just doing something bad makes me jumpy. Compared to you, I'm an idiot. I'm older than you. "
Niu Youdao: "Smooth out your tongue and tell me, what do you mean by doing bad things? The world has suffered for a long time, we are doing justice on behalf of the heavens, okay? If you look up to the heavens, if you look down to the earth, if you have a clear conscience, even ghosts and gods will avoid you. What is there to fear? "
Ao Feng was amused. "Right, right, right. Well said. It's enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens."
"Wait here." Niu Youdao said and left.
Ao Feng was stunned. He didn't know what he was supposed to wait for. In any case, he didn't feel safe standing there with his things in his arms. He lifted the hem of his shirt and hid the pockets under his crotch.
Not long after, Niu Youdao took out a long, cylindrical stone from somewhere. Right in front of Ao Feng, he clawed at the surface of the stone and cast a spell to turn it around.
Under his five claws, a circular stone rose up in a spiral and was plucked out.
He then reached into the hole in the stone and once again cast a spell to attack the inside of the stone. Immediately, dust flew out and formed a small pile on the ground.
Ao Feng understood. The stone was hollowed out to hide things. If he wanted to send the things out, he would probably have to use the same trick again.
"Where's the thing?" Niu Youdao asked with one hand.
Ao Feng lifted the hem of his shirt and took out the black pocket from his crotch again. He took out a fruit and stuffed it into the hole in the stone.
The two of them huddled together sneakily and looked around from time to time. One look and anyone could tell that they were up to no good.
After all the fruits were stuffed in, Niu Youdao cast a spell to absorb the stone dust on the ground and poured it into the stone, filling up the gaps and preventing things from moving around inside.
Once it was filled up, he took out the spiral stone and screwed it into the hole. Then he filled it up and polished the surface. Finally, he grabbed some soil and rubbed it against the surface. In the blink of an eye, the stone was restored to a flawless state.
It seemed like a simple trick, but Ao Feng couldn't help but click his tongue. "Smooth like flowing water, neat and tidy. What a good skill. I can tell that you are an experienced person. You must have done this kind of thing many times, right?"
"It's just a small trick, not worth mentioning." Niu Youdao said modestly. He hugged the stone and carefully sniffed it. After confirming that he couldn't smell any fruit, he tossed the stone back to the other party. "When my group leaves the Immeasurable Garden, take the opportunity to use the old method and place the thing at the entrance of the array. When it gets dark, the fox clan will come to pick it up. You can use the old method to hide it."
Ao Feng was startled. Then he revealed a shocked and angry expression. "If you take it away, what about me? I can't leave for a while. Once you get the thing, you will burn the bridge after crossing the river. Who am I going to look for then? "
Niu Youdao: "In the pugilistic world, even bandits have their own principles. I will not let anyone who has helped me say the word 'no' to me! I carry the flag of righteousness, and the people under the flag are all righteous people. I will not go back on my word in the name of righteousness. This is the foundation of my footing, so you can rest assured! The desolate swamp wasteland is the place where you will be my witness. There will be people from the fox clan there to receive you. As long as you leave, you can go straight to that place. No matter when you arrive, the fox clan will be there to receive you. I will not go back on my word! "
Ao Feng hugged the stone in his hand tightly. "I say, Niu Youdao, don't talk to me about these useless things. I am taking such a great risk, it is the same as risking my life. Now you are trying to play this game with me. Why should I believe you?"
Niu Youdao: "If you don't take the thing out now, are you courting death by staying in the Immeasurable Garden? As long as the thing is taken out, even if they discover that the thing on the tree is fake, they won't be able to trace it back to you. At the very least, they will suspect me. Once they discover that the thing has been tampered with, the entire Immeasurable Garden will be searched thoroughly. The Immeasurable Garden is so small, so how can it be hidden? It will definitely be found.
"Once it is found, have you thought about the consequences? It is clear that there are people in the Immeasurable Garden who will continue to send it out. It is clear that there is a traitor. Even if you refuse to admit it, when the time comes, as long as they can't find out who it is, the Nine Saints will do something. You can imagine what they will do. They would rather kill the wrong person than let them go. No one in the Immeasurable Garden will be able to live!
"You will only be safer if the thing is taken out. I will bring people into the Immeasurable Garden to investigate, causing quite a stir. No one knows if it will arouse any suspicions. No one can guarantee that someone won't approach the fruit and personally inspect it. If we don't send it out now, it is likely we won't be able to send it out later. All of our painstaking efforts might go to waste. "
"Right now, your old method, in addition to me thinking of a way to attract everyone's attention and cover for you, is the best time to safely take the thing out.
"The thing is now out with General Crow guarding it. Wu Chang isn't here, so they won't be able to get close to verify it. If they force it, General Crow will destroy the Immeasurable Fruit, and no one will be able to bear that responsibility. Even if they discover that the tree is fake, as long as they can't find anything in the Immeasurable Garden, they will strictly inspect our entry and exit. They will think that there is no way to take it out this time, and they will suspect that someone tampered with it because there was too much chaos during the fire.
"At that time, who will be the most suspicious? It will definitely be the people who were on duty that day to guard the Immeasurable Fruit. Without their cooperation, no one will be able to steal the fruit.
"The thing must go out today. Only after it goes out can you be safe."
Ao Feng said with grief and indignation, "If they really discover that the fruit is gone, I'm afraid everyone in the Immeasurable Garden will be controlled! You can take the thing and run, but I will be detained. You can hide in the Desolate Swamp Wasteland without any worries, but what about me? "
Niu Youdao said in a low voice, "You are talking to me about this now? From the beginning, you knew that you can't get out in time. You will definitely have to bear the risk. "
"You were wondering how I got those five skulls. How can I get something that Wu Chang controls? You should be able to imagine that there must be someone in the Saint Realm helping me. Even if the person helping me can't save you, as long as the thing goes out, as long as you are temporarily safe, even if you are detained, I can use the temptation of the Immeasurable Fruit to find someone to fish you out! You should know very well how tempting the Immeasurable Fruit is! "
"Mister Ao, I still say the same thing. You can only be safe after the thing goes out!"
"I have finally experienced the sharpness of your tongue today!" Ao Feng said angrily, not letting go of the rock. "Don't get me off topic. What I want to ask now is, what if you burn the bridge after crossing the river?"
Niu Youdao said, "You don't have to worry. You can definitely have a backup plan. After you leave the Immeasurable Garden, you can set it up outside. After you reach the Desolate Swamp Wasteland, if you don't get what you want, your backup plan will be exposed and everything about me will be exposed. Under the full pursuit of the Nine Saints, I won't be able to live in peace even if I get the thing. If you get what you want, immediately tell me the location and I will send someone to destroy it. "
"You know, if the matter is exposed too soon, the twelve fruits won't have the time and opportunity to be used. It won't do me any good. How about this? "
Ao Feng fell silent …
In the Dayuan Tower, the three Dayuan Holy Land personnel had returned. They stood on the tower and looked at the fruit tree. Everything was normal.
The leader looked around and noticed that there were people appearing in the nearby Unique Pavilion. He wanted to go over and greet them, but when he thought of the instructions he had received after the interrogation, in order to avoid suspicion of collusion, he could only give up and sigh. There was a traitor? No one knew how big the fire would be.
The guards on the ninth floor returned to their posts one after another. They were all gloomy. The fire had caused the Immeasurable Garden to have no peace until now.
When it was close to evening, the interrogation was completed. The quarantined personnel were all released and returned to their respective places.
As soon as the nine great attendants regained their freedom, they heard that even the guards guarding the fruits had been interrogated. Almost immediately, they rushed to their posts to check.
As soon as they approached, they saw that the three Crow Generals looked like demons. They transformed into human figures and guarded the fruits, preventing them from crossing the line.
No one dared to cross the line. They circled around and checked the fruits. When they found that they were all intact, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Thinking about it, they realized that they had worried too much. With these three emotionless Crow Generals guarding the fruits, nothing should have happened. If something had happened, the Immeasurable Garden was only a small place, so there was no way the commotion would have escaped their notice.
When they asked the guards, they found out that they took turns to interrogate the people. They felt that Niu Youdao knew the severity of the situation.
After the nine great attendants met, they rushed to the conference hall to look for Niu Youdao.
