It was the iron essence Elder Shui obtained at the auction that day.
"I had known that this thing was extraordinary. I was also at the auction that day. Because I was short of money, I didn't have the nerve to wait until the end, but I didn't expect that such a magical thing fell into the hands of Shui Zhongjing. Today, it is in my hands again. Let me try to see if this thing is really as magical as it is legendary."
Saying that, Gao Junmo held the iron essence and moved it with the force of his palm. The iron essence was now square and flat, sharp and thick, long and short, and varied.
Seeing that Gao Junmo was getting excited about playing, Xu Yi unconsciously reached into his arms and touched the round piece. When he exerted force on his palm, an astonishing heat came from his hand. He immediately let go of his hand.
And just when he was transmitting his palm power, Gao Junmo uttered an oops, held the iron spirit, and said, "Weird, weird, this iron spirit was so incredibly hot just now. Could it be that I have been playing with it for a long time, and this thing can't bear it, oops.", I wonder if Shui Zhongjing did something to this iron spirit, that's all, since this thing belongs to Non-Self, there is no need to touch it, lest it gets damaged and you can't afford to pay for it." With that, he put the iron spirit back into the square box.
Suddenly he remembered something and said, "This iron spirit is very precious, and it was taken from Shui Zhongjing. How can I guarantee that Shui Zhongjing will not miss him, let alone the countless people who covet it in the dark. As for the protection of this iron spirit, what can you teach me?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone shrank their heads.
It's true that Tie Jing is a treasure, but it's not his own. He can't take it home with him. Losing it would be too big a crime, and no one would dare to take the blame.
Qi Pei Lin simply said, "This thing is precious and should be kept by the general himself. I think with the general's reputation, ignorant people should be able to retreat after hearing the news."
Gao Junmo glanced at Qi Pei Lin with dissatisfaction, "Gao has recently studied Xuan Gong. At this critical moment, I'm afraid I don't have the energy to protect this thing. Which of the three of you is willing to take on this heavy responsibility?"
Li Zhongshu said, "Does this need to be said? In addition to the general, I, Patrol Division, am Steward Xu. I have a far-reaching reputation, and my ability is well-known. Guang'an. If I have Steward Xu to guard me, I will be able to ensure that the iron spirit is safe and sound."
"Li, since you must play, let's play!"
Xu Yi gritted his teeth in his heart, but said, "Of course I am willing to work for the director, but this matter is not a trivial matter, and I cannot bear it alone. After all, Xu is not made of iron, and can stay up all day and all night."
"Since the four of us are the chief's confidants, if the chief has something to do, the four of us will work together. How about this, starting from tonight, this iron spirit will place White Tiger Hall, and the four of me will take turns guarding it. Zuo Jin will be deployed with heavy troops to ensure that nothing happens."
"This method is very good, fair and reasonable, no one will suffer, and with the four of you guarding it at the same time, I can rest assured Wuyou, that's it." Gao Junmo made the final decision.
Li Zhongshu was about to say anything more, but was stopped by Gao Junmo with a wave of his hand, "King Feng Jian since Heavy Iron is so good at it, he must have arrived very quickly. I guess the four of you won't have to work hard for more than a few days. Why, Zhong Shu, don't you want to bear this hard work for Gao?"
Gao Junmo's tone increased, and he was vaguely dissatisfied that Li Zhongshu had trouble getting along with Xu Yi because of his inhumane selfishness.
"Zhong Shu dare not! I am willing to serve the general!"
Li Zhongshu knelt on one knee and said.
How could he not hear Gao Junmo's displeasure and dare not talk anymore.
After assigning the task, Gao Junmo went off on his own. The four of them, Xu Yi, each had their own agenda and looked at each other in silence. They sat there for a while and then Li Zhongshu said, "There is no need for four people here. Why not take turns to take charge? Steward Xu will guard the first round. The three of us will find rooms on the left and right to rest." As soon as there is a sound, Steward Xu shouts, and the three of us can arrive in an instant. Two hours later, Li replaces Steward Xu, and after Li comes Pei Lin, Bai Han Big Brother, and so on."
All Xu Yi could think about was where the heat came from when he touched the iron essence just now, and Gao Junmo also said he felt the heat.
Since he was anxious to find out the truth, Li Zhongshu asked him to take the lead, and he naturally agreed without hesitation.
Xu Yi, the first person, has no objections, and Qi Baihan, Song Peilin naturally has no objections.
After the four people discussed it, Qi, Li, and Song each left White Tiger Hall and found rooms to rest in the left and right wings.
It was evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the blue roof, cutting out a bright red.
Xu Yi took out the jade box from his arms, stroked it gently, and put it back into his arms. After a while, he opened the square box again, took out the iron spirit, pressed his palms, let it change shape, played with it for a while, and put it back into the box.
At this moment, the sky has not yet darkened, and the three Li Zhongshu people have dispersed. The vigilance has not disappeared, and I don't know how many people are observing this place secretly.
Xu Yi would not be stupid enough to try it now. However, in order to appear natural, he had to take out the iron essence and play with it.
Otherwise, it would be too deliberate.
After all, it is impossible for ordinary people to resist the temptation of not touching the treasure when it is nearby.
An hour and a half later, as night fell, the person in charge, White Tiger Hall Menial Worker, came forward to light the lamp, but was dismissed by Xu Yi.
He is Soul Power extremely strong and not afraid of the dark night. If he lights a lamp, wouldn't he use this place as a target?
After a while, it was already dark, and the timing was so good that even the moon had the good sense to hide.
Xu Yi Opened the square box again, held the iron essence the size of a chicken egg in one hand, and held the iron essence the size of a duck egg in the other hand, and used palm force to move it at the same time.
Suddenly, there was strong heat flowing between the palms of both hands. After a while, the hand in the arms became hotter and hotter, while the hand in the box became colder and colder.
There seems to be energy being transferred between the two!
His eyes were always locked on the iron essence in the box. Xu Yi finally saw the subtle changes. The iron essence in the box was clearly reduced by the slightest bit.
Every bit of it is so small that if you don't stare at it, observe the whole process, and compare the before and after, you won't notice it at all.
Xu Yi quickly let go, feeling extremely surprised.
At the auction that day, the main auctioneer held the iron spirit, displayed it in front of everyone, and personally used the power of his palm to transform the iron spirit.
At that time, the iron essence of Xu Yi was in the waist bag, but nothing strange was heard.
This time, if it hadn't been a coincidence that he and Gao Junmo activated their palm power at the same time, he really wouldn't have known that there was such a mysterious attraction between the two iron spirits.
At this moment, he did another experiment, only to find that the iron spirit in his arms actually attracted the iron spirit in the square box. No, it should be said that it had the power of devouring it.
This astonishing discovery confused Xu Yi. Until Li Zhongshu showed up to change his shift, Xu Yi was still deep in thought, and even forgot to reply to Li Zhongshu's weird words.
After entering the wing, he was still trying to figure it out, but he couldn't figure it out.
