All the way without talking, after more than half a month, Ma Yunteng and Chengzi finally arrived at the fairy city at the foot of Penglai Mountain. They had previously agreed with Xueyuan and others to meet at the largest inn here.
Hengzhi and others have already used aliases, Ma Yunteng went to report the name of "Mr. Zhe", and was immediately taken to the back yard by Xiao Er.
As before, Hengzhi¡¯s pseudonym Hengshan is the third senior brother, Ma Yunteng is the senior brother Yunzhe, Yunyou is the second senior sister Yunyan, Heng Er is the fourth junior sister Henglian, fifth junior sister Xueyuan, sixth junior sister Manning, and Cheng Zi is the little sister. Junior sister Yunxi.
This inn only accepts monks, and it costs two high-grade fairy crystals a day to stay in an ordinary house. Xueyuan and the others rent this yard, which is even more expensive. Can't afford it.
But now Xueyuan doesn't have much else on her body, she has a lot of fairy crystals, so she doesn't care at all.
Fortunately, they came first to reserve the yard. Judging from what Chengzi and the others saw along the way, the entire fairy city was already overcrowded, even this extremely expensive inn had a sign saying it was full.
As soon as the few people met, they even forgot their polite words. Heng Er opened his mouth and shouted: "But I waited for you to come. If you don't come, it will be too late for everything!"
Hengzhi sent off Xiao Er who was leading the way, welcomed Ma Yunteng and Chengzi into the yard, and said, "We'll talk when we go in. Fortunately, you can still make it in time."
Cheng Zi found that in addition to the protective magic circles that the shop had set up in advance, the small courtyard also had a flag of Hengzhi, which was triple layered inside and outside, which not only cut off the prying eyes of other monks, but also ensured that there would be no movement outside the yard.
She couldn't help secretly admiring that she was so well prepared.
Ge Ning was originally meditating in the quiet room, when she heard they came back, she also opened the door to welcome them out, and they went to Xue Yuan's room together.
Hengzhi didn't waste any time, and immediately introduced the situation of the Cao family.
They came half a month earlier than Chengzi and Ma Yunteng, and they heard the news that Cao Canxiong, the ancestor of the Cao family, would hold his 500th birthday in a month.
The Cao family is the head of the five great families of the Penglai Sect, and the security of the manor is no less than that of an ordinary sect. The most terrifying thing is that Cao Canxiong himself is an early ninth-rank immortal. It is difficult to escape his eyes and ears.
Xueyuan and the others have tried several times in secret, and it is simply impossible to sneak into the manor to steal the relics of the Ice and Fire God King without anyone noticing.
This time Cao Shenxiong's 500th birthday, many guests are invited, it will be a great opportunity for them to get involved and take advantage of it! If you miss this time, it will be difficult to think about it!
Cheng Zi asked strangely: "Based on this, isn't there still half a month left?" The time is obviously still very loose.
Heng Zhi smiled and said: "We need to find someone to sneak into the manor first, at least to find out the terrain, the only person who is suitable for you is Orange."
"Me?!" Cheng Zi was dumbfounded.
Ma Yunteng frowned and said: "Chengzi only has a third-rank cultivation, so if she sneaks into Cao's house and is found out, it's not a joke."
"It's true that only Junior Sister can go to this matter, and she can get in because of her low rank!" Yunyou rubbed her face and said, she was not at ease to let Junior Sister take risks.
Gan Ning explained: "This time, the patriarch of the Cao family planned to take a female nun as his concubine besides celebrating his 500th birthday. I heard that he liked that female nun very much, so he specially built another courtyard in the manor for her. There is not enough manpower to prepare for the birthday and concubinage ceremonies, so I plan to recruit a group of low-level monks to serve as servants temporarily. Now the manpower is almost full, and there are still a few artisan maids who take care of the flowers and trees. Many people were dissatisfied, saying that it was because the flowers and trees in the courtyard of the new concubine of the ancestor of the Cao family were too rare to be served by idlers. This orange should be fine."
Xueyuan said bitterly: "You are still taking concubines at the age of five hundred, you old rascal! Bah!"
"The recruiters of Cao's family declared that they only need monks of the third rank and below. They even have a special magic weapon to test all applicants. We can't do it if we want to get in." Hengzhi took the conversation of oranges and continued to explain.
Cheng Zi is helpless, it seems that she is determined to do this carefully! They didn't know anything about the situation in the manor. If they waited until the birthday to sneak in, the possibility of returning without success was higher than anything else.
The token to open the treasure of the Ice and Fire God King is just short of this last one, so there is no reason not to try it.
After this task is completed, they can consider splitting the void to go to other time and space to find more powerful ancient artifacts.
"I don't worry about letting Chengzi take the risk alone." Ma Yunteng said directly.
"Of course she won't be the only one. After Chengzi successfully sneaks in, it will be your turn to go in in a few days." Hengzhi smiled more like a fox than Yaohu.
&Carefully take care of it for half a year. When the roots of the flowers recover, the flowers will naturally heal. "
In fact, you can know these oranges without looking at them, but since she wants to pretend, of course she has to do a full set of acting.
"Well, not bad! Cao Zhen, you finally found a decent person. Little girl, stand up and let me have a look." It was a woman who spoke, her voice was sharp and picky, and she didn't sound like a real person. easy going person.
Cheng Zi obediently stood up and turned around to let the other party look at her, and she also looked at her secretly. It was a girl who was also dressed as a maidservant, with a third-rank cultivation base. She was quite pretty, but her eyebrows were raised and her expression was quite arrogant.
"That's right, he looks like a worker, after all, he's not a coquette." The maid was very satisfied with Cheng Zi's earthy and clumsy appearance after she changed her face, and immediately decided to keep Cheng Zi.
After sending Cao Zhen away, the maid introduced herself. She was the maid of the Cao family patriarch's new concubine Ye Qingqing, named Qin Hua. From the information revealed in her speech, Cheng Zi was very depressed to find that the biggest reason the other party was satisfied with her was not because of her high level of professional skills, but because she was not good-looking, so she would never have a chance to talk to her young lady (and She) competed for favor.
As the concubine of the ancestor of the Cao family, it is inconvenient for young men to come in and out of the yard, so Cao Zhen sent either old men or women and children. Qin Hua thinks that the old ones are deaf, the young ones are useless, and the beautiful girls are too dangerous, so they are chosen out of thousands. I just fell in love with oranges today.
An old hooligan who is five hundred years old and still thinking about taking concubines, I don't even want to give her away!
Cheng Zi found that her depression has continued to escalate since she first came into contact with the Cao family.
I don't know when Master will come in? She needs to figure out what's going on here as soon as possible.
Cheng Zi squatted in the garden for two days, and finally met Ye Qingqing, the legendary new concubine who was loved by the ancestors of the Cao family. Chengzi had seen Mo Xuanji and the peerless beauties of Huashen's level before.
After waiting for another two days, someone came to inform that the ancestor would come to stay overnight tonight, so Mrs. Qing should prepare well.
Chengzi thought that the legendary old rascal Cao Shenxiong was coming, and was more excited and nervous than Ye Qingqing and Qin Hua. Finally, he had the opportunity to contact the core people, and hoped to hear some useful news.
In the past few days, she has often observed this Zhuangzi relying on her unique sensing method. She roughly knows that there are three most heavily guarded places in Zhuangzi. One is Cao Shenxiong¡¯s own residence, and the other is in the middle of Zhuangzi. There were a lot of guards, and a lot of magic circles were set up, and Cheng Zi couldn't clearly feel what was inside. Another one was the study of the Patriarch of the Cao family, which was also heavily guarded in the south of Zhuangzi.
Which of these three places is the relic of the Ice and Fire God King? It is estimated that only a very few people know.
Although the relics of the Ice and Fire God King are not powerful magic weapons, and most of them have been sealed by people, and the original characteristic power cannot be seen, it does not mean that everyone will be deceived by the seal. I hope that the old hooligan can break some news tonight!
However, at the same time, Chengzi also secretly reminded himself that the Xianjun at the beginning of the Ninth Stage was not just playing, and he had to be more careful.
Just in the eager anticipation of Orange, the night finally gradually fell
As expected, Cao Canxiong came, but Cheng Zi and other servants were sent back to the room behind the yard to rest early by the housekeeper, and they were severely warned not to leave the room without permission, or they would be killed.
Cheng Zi looked forward to it for a day, but he couldn't even see the shadow of Cao Shenxiong. Fortunately, she had been prepared for a long time. During the day, Qin Hua sent many flowers to Ye Qingqing's room, including a pot of "twin flowers". With this pot of flowers, it was not difficult for her to know Ye Qing's love. The movement in Qing's room.
As the name suggests, a seed will produce two flowers. This kind of flower is particularly responsive to external sounds. When one plant is stimulated, the other plant will have exactly the same reaction. For oranges, this ability to perceive plants For a particularly powerful person, it is simply a natural eavesdropping tool.
This kind of flower has been extinct for a long time in the world, and it was cultivated by the seeds that Orange got from the medicine garden left by the flower god. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
