Chapter 18 A human skin scroll
"Splash!"
Chu Chen stood up and walked out of the wooden barrel.
No need to wipe with cotton cloth, just shake with the power, and all the water droplets on the body will be shaken off.
Convenient and fast.
"Why is this demon queen not dead yet?"
Chu Chen returned to the room, put on his clothes, and glanced at the three little people under the bed.
Yesterday, when the news of the queen mother's assassination came out, he was happy for a while, thinking that this demon queen would not escape death. In the end, nothing happened, which made him happy for nothing.
"The day of revenge is far away."
Chu Chen sighed.
If the queen mother is not dead and Zhang family is not overthrown, how can he go to Zhang Pan to avenge the whipping in the past?
As for the revenge of old man Shen, needless to say, he will never think of revenge against King Wei before breaking through the Xiantian realm.
Chu Chen is not in a hurry, he has plenty of time to wait, and there will always be a chance for revenge.
Just then, a sound came from the backyard, which was the sound of the mechanism trap being triggered.
"Ah..."
Then, there was a scream that stopped abruptly.
"Another thief on the beam."
After waiting for a while and observing the situation in the backyard for a while, he pushed open the door and saw a masked man in black lying silently in the trap in the backyard.
In the past few years, the public security in the imperial capital has become worse and worse, and cases of theft and burglary have occurred frequently.
Many people patronize Chu Chen's small pawnshop.
The Li Ji Miscellaneous Soup Shop next door even hired two Bone Refining Realm warriors to sit in and deter the scoundrels.
Chu Chen is not as rich as the current Li Ji Miscellaneous Soup Shop, and cannot afford to hire Bone Refining Realm warriors. He can only rely on some traps to protect himself from being harassed by these thieves on the beam.
It's really a bit pitiful.
Chu Chen put on his gloves and skillfully fumbled on the man in black for a while, and took out a small shovel, a flying tiger claw, some silver, and some silver bills, totaling about three hundred taels of silver.
This thief had already made a lot of money before coming to the pawnshop.
However, it was all Chu Chen's fault.
"Not bad, the profit this time is not bad."
Chu Chen nodded with satisfaction and naturally put the banknotes into his arms.
He was about to have a blood transfusion and needed a lot of silver to buy medicinal materials. These stolen money could just help him with his blood transfusion.
"Huh?"
At this time, Chu Chen felt a strange hard object on the chest of this thief.
He opened his clothes and tore it gently. A human skin roll with almost the same skin color as this thief was torn off by him.
"What is this?"
Chu Chen looked at the human skin roll in his hand, his eyes slightly condensed, revealing a solemn look.
This is real human skin!
To be precise, this is the human skin of a martial arts master.
This martial arts master is likely to be a martial artist above the innate realm.
This human skin has no pores and feels smooth and smooth as a whole, not much different from touching a piece of jade.
Only an innate warrior can do this. After a warrior breaks through the innate, the pores will automatically close and no longer leak the essence in the body. The skin will form a situation like this human skin.
"This thing is not simple."
A ripple appeared in Chu Chen's eyes. On the surface, there was nothing on this human skin.
But his intuition told him that this human skin roll was definitely not simple.
An innate warrior would not be idle and tear his own skin for fun. This innate warrior must have a purpose for leaving this human skin roll.
While thinking, Chu Chen skillfully dug a big pit in the backyard and threw the body of this gentleman on the beam into it.
Then, he took out a white porcelain bottle from his waist and poured it on the body. A "hissing" sound suddenly sounded, and the flesh and clothes of the body were corroded into a pool of blood.
Chu Chen filled the big pit, and there was no trace of blood in the yard.
The white porcelain bottle contains a kind of poison, called corpse-dissolving water, which can quickly dissolve the body to achieve the purpose of destroying the body. Chu Chen learned it from a book of poison in the secret room.
At the beginning, some people died in the trap of the pawnshop, and Chu Chen mostly chose to bury these people's bodies directly in the backyard.
But as time went on, more and more people died in the backyard of the pawnshop. Every four or five months, there were one or two, sometimes two or three, and many people came to seek revenge.
As a last resort, he could only prepare corpse-dissolving water and pour some when burying these people's bodies to relieve the pressure in the backyard.
It must be said that with the nourishment of these people, the flowers and plants in the backyard grew more luxuriantly.
After doing all this, Chu Chen opened the door for business as usual, reading a book while waiting for customers to come.
It was not until the evening that he had the opportunity to continue studying the human skin scroll.
"What is the secret of this human skin scroll?"
On the surface, there is nothing on this human skin scroll.
Chu Chen tried burning, blisters, and stabbing with a sword, but he couldn't leave any marks on the human skin scroll, nor could he make the human skin scroll reveal any clues.
Even if he injected his internal energy into it, he couldn't make the human skin scroll reveal its secrets.
"No, there is a change."
Chu Chen tried to inject the power of blood and qi into it, and the human skin scroll finally changed.
After a warrior breaks through the marrow refining realm, the power of blood and qi increases greatly, and it can also leave the body like internal energy.
The human skin scroll trembled slightly, and faint handwriting appeared on it.
These handwritings tell the glorious deeds of an innate warrior named Pei Zhixuan, who is the 24th leader of the Wusheng Sect.
"The 24th leader of the Wusheng Sect?"
Chu Chen raised his eyebrows and showed a look of surprise.
Wusheng Sect.
A huge organization obsessed with rebellion, with an ancient heritage, has existed for thousands of years, and has a much longer history than the Great Yan Kingdom.
However, the Wusheng Sect has never been able to successfully rebel and establish its own dynasty.
The Wusheng Sect once had the hope of establishing a dynasty, and even the current Great Yan Imperial Capital is under its control. The leader of the Wusheng Sect at that time was Pei Zhixuan.
At that time, the Wusheng Sect occupied most of the territory of the current Great Yan Kingdom, and it was about to successfully establish a dynasty.
But Pei Zhixuan suddenly disappeared, causing the Wusheng Sect to fall into a state of leaderlessness. The Great Yan Taizu took advantage of the situation and defeated the Wusheng Sect in one fell swoop to establish the Great Yan Kingdom.
As a result, the Wusheng Sect became silent, hiding in the dark of the Great Yan Kingdom, waiting for an opportunity to overthrow the rule of the Great Yan Kingdom.
Behind the several rebel forces in the south of the Great Yan Kingdom, there is the shadow of the Wusheng Sect.
The previous assassination of the Queen Mother was also planned by the Wusheng Sect.
"It seems that the current Wusheng Sect has been passed down to the 32nd leader?"
Information about the Wusheng Sect flashed through Chu Chen's mind.
The human skin scroll records Pei Zhixuan's life, including some of his great achievements. However, in Chu Chen's opinion, there is a suspicion of self-praise.
Skipping these, the second half of the human skin scroll records the reason why Pei Zhixuan disappeared.
Pei Zhixuan became obsessed with practicing martial arts, which led to his own schizophrenia and sometimes fell into an uncontrollable state of madness.
When the Wusheng Sect was about to establish a country, Pei Zhixuan fell into an uncontrollable state of madness again. When he woke up again, he found himself in a tomb and was almost exhausted.
In order to prevent his inheritance from being cut off, he tore off his skin and wrote down two exercises.
Tianyi Heart Method, Qishang Zhengjin Meridian.
