C368 Triplex
This place couldn't even be called an attic! It was simply a pile of rubbish! Other than choking dust and piles of junk that littered the ground, even the air was filled with a faint smell of decay, revealing filth and a creepy atmosphere.
Ji Lei held back the feeling of his stomach about to turn upside down and stepped inside. As expected, the accumulated dust immediately covered Ji Lei's feet and he stepped on the ground, making a long creaking sound on the wooden board.
With a heavy heart, Ji Lei started to wave his broom and slowly clean up the trash.
He didn't know why, but in an instant, Ji Lei's mood dropped to the bottom. The high mood he had just been in suddenly disappeared. He wanted to become a peerless Alchemist, but right now, he was stuck in a pile of trash.
"Serves as menial chores, they really are menial chores …" Ji Lei felt that he couldn't see the hope of tomorrow, but the broom in his hand still did not stop. And just when Ji Lei was enduring his impatience to work, the broom in his hand seemed to hit something. Ji Lei was puzzled and lowered his head, borrowing the dim light to look at the unknown object on the ground that he touched.
Ji Lei stood up and directly put the item in his hand. With the light shining on it, he carefully looked at the item.
It was an object with no regular shape. It was hard to tell the color of the black ash because it was too dirty and covered in dust. Ji Lei didn't know if the color of the black ash was its own or because it was contaminated by dust.
"Just what is this thing …" Ji Lei frowned. He threw the broom to the ground and focused on studying the object in his hand-- He wasn't in the mood to clean anyway.
"This is the sariras."
This frightened Ji Lei so much that he hurriedly hid the thing in his sleeve and turned around. He found that it was a pale young boy standing behind him, and Ji Lei could clearly see his face, which was quite scary. That little face was completely devoid of any blood color, as if he was a zombie, but what made him different from a zombie was that his face was still full, at least it looked like real flesh, not skin and bones.
"Who are you?!" Ji Lei was in a bit of a panic. The sudden low voice and the little boy scared Ji Lei. His usual calm expression also showed an uncontrollable panic.
"Who am I … I am naturally the owner of the thing in your hands … " The little boy pointed at Ji Lei's bulging sleeves and slowly said.
"This?" Ji Lei took out the irregular object from his sleeve. Holding it in his hand, the little boy's somewhat empty eyes showed a slight fluctuation after seeing this irregular object, as if this object had hooked up with his inner emotions.
"This is …" "Me …" The little boy's expression was somewhat nostalgic. He reached out his hand to touch the object in Ji Lei's hand, but what made Ji Lei's face change greatly was that the little boy's hand did not touch the object, but instead directly … It passed through!
"Mm …" "I feel like I've forgotten something …" Elder Qing stroked his beard, revealing a thoughtful expression. Seeing this, the Elder at the side could not help but mock him: "You are so young, it is already good enough that you have not forgotten your name!"
When Elder Qing heard this, he rolled his eyes at that fellow. A whirlwind spun in his mind. He really felt that he had overlooked something, something very important …
"I remember, the Exquisite Pagoda is in the third pavilion …" Hearing the three words "Exquisite Pagoda", the elder's face turned serious. Looking at the face of Elder Qing, he said: "I remember that you put the Exquisite Pagoda in the three pavilions. How long ago was that? Twenty or thirty years, I can't remember. "
"The three pavilions have never closed their doors to outsiders. Countless people have entered and no one would care about the Exquisite Pagoda. Compared to the medicine manuals of the three pavilions, the Exquisite Pagoda is insignificant."
"But five years ago, we emptied all three pavilions …" The expression on Elder Qing's face suddenly became uneasy. He quickly stood up, looked at the elder and asked: "Where is the Exquisite Pagoda?" Did you move away? "
"I don't know! Weren't you the one who directed the relocation? " The elder's expression was exactly the same as Elder Qing's. At this moment, they seemed to have realized something, something very, very serious.
"Where did the books from the three pavilions go to five years ago?" Elder Qing could not sit still any longer. He stood up and asked a man who looked like a servant!
That person seemed to be surprised that Elder Qing would ask such a long time ago, but since he was an Elder, he still replied respectfully: "Elder, that year Elder Luo said that Second House is free, so he moved all these books to the Second House."
"Second Pavilion?" He then turned to the elder beside him and said: "Old Mu, quickly go to the second pavilion and find out if the Exquisite Pagoda is inside. I will go to the third pavilion now, if the Exquisite Pagoda is forgotten in the third pavilion …" "Then Ji Lei is in danger!"
This was an emergency and this elder did not care about the way Elder Qing addressed him. He hurriedly left the Pudu Hall and walked into the distance. Because the second pavilion of the Pudu Hall was not established within the Pudu Hall, he had to quickly go and see what was going on!
"Go get Elder Luo!" "In my name!" After the servant heard this, he immediately nodded his head, then ran out of the Pudu Hall.
"All disciples above the Earth Realm, follow me!" However, this time, Elder Qing's voice was solemn, and everyone could hear the anxiety in his voice. All the Earth Level and above disciples immediately gathered towards Elder Qing.
"Elder Qing, what about the disciples below Earth Level?" A disciple suddenly asked.
"Everyone below earth level, scram!" Elder Qing didn't have the leisure to answer these silly questions, so his attitude was extremely impatient.
"Elder, what are you trying to do?" A man in clean white clothes suddenly asked Elder Qing. Hearing this, Elder Qing's eyes flashed with a serious look, then he said in a deep voice: "Save them."
