After the immortal disappeared

This demon puppet is rather weird. It can't quickly recover from its injuries just by drinking divine blood.

He Lingchuan pondered: "How long will it take for it to return to its original state?"

"Even if it is soaked in the medicinal mud specially prepared by Lingguang and I, it will take ten days and a half; during this period, it will fall into dormancy and cannot be disturbed."

"In other words, the action in a few days will not be able to catch up?"

Dong Rui was reluctant, but he had to admit: "It can't catch up. Even if we don't treat it now, the distance it can escape when seriously injured is very limited. Even if the ground is wet, it won't be able to run fast."

He Lingchuan pondered for a few breaths, and then said: "In that case, you should evacuate Tianshui City first."

What? Dong Rui's eyes suddenly widened: "What do you mean!"

He Lingchuan has been planning this big job for so long and he is not allowed to participate?

"Both you and Snail Toad are seriously injured and unable to walk." He Lingchuan said with a serious face, "The day the Emperor's Ooze arrives, the weaker party will definitely be a target! I can't take care of you distractedly."

Snail Toad is temporarily on strike, and they lack the most convenient tool for traveling. Dong Rui is now injured again and his movements are not as good as before.

Dong Rui said angrily: "Who do you think is weak?"

"Of course not you. You defeated Cao Wendao single-handedly, who dares to say you are weak?" Cao Wendao easily killed Situ He, and He Lingchuan could feel that Qingyang and him were not in a superior relationship, so at least treat him with courtesy. . Otherwise, how could Cao Wendao be so undisciplined?

How proud is Qingyang? She must respect Cao Wendao's ability, not his bad temper. Dong Rui can make such an opponent hate Jiuquan. Who dares to call him a weakling?

So He Lingchuan put it another way to take care of his fragile self-esteem: "But once that day comes, what will be our priority goal?"

"Escape intact."

"That's right." He Lingchuan patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely, "With you here, I can't run fast."

"..."

Just kidding. He Lingchuan said seriously: "After seeing the battle scene tonight, Qingyang may have doubted you. After all, ordinary practitioners have little experience against demon puppet masters. They can kill Cao Wendao and so many demons in his hands in a short period of time." Most of them are colleagues. With her character, Zhao Song's nine hundred people will protect me and will not be responsible for your safety. By the way, don't forget that Bai Ziqi will be back soon. Maybe I’ll use you as a breakthrough point.”

Dong Rui was injured and was probably being targeted by Qingyang and Bai Ziqi.

Then it doesn't make much sense for him to stay, and the danger will increase instead.

The biggest advantage of the demon puppet master must be that he can hide in the dark instead of being stared at with a magnifying glass.

So the wisest thing for him to do is to choose the best strategy.

He Lingchuan continued to persuade: "If I am distracted from taking care of your safety, the plan will not be easy to implement."

Dong Rui was already shaken, but still worried: "Can you handle it alone?"

"I also have the Yangshan Guards and the gold medal fighter Auntie, how can we be alone?" He Lingchuan reassured him, "Besides, if you can't beat me, you can't run away? Don't forget, we originally planned to finish the last battle. Put on the fire and put oil on the soles of your feet.”

"Also, after the battle tonight, Yang Chi will be escorted to the palace. The follow-up will be very interesting." He threw the last grapefruit into his mouth, "In the next few days, Qingyang will stay away from me. Of."

In fact, Qingyang has stopped causing trouble for him recently. He is busy planning big events and doesn't want to cause trouble again before the incident.

But He Lingchuan disagreed, so he took the initiative at this moment to trouble Cao Wendao.

Dong Rui finally nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I'll go."

He and He Lingchuan are both people who can do what they think of and their actions are top-notch.

Since there is no point in staying, he will not drag his feet.

"Looking at the bright side, we have already found out the location of the Red House. Cao Wendao may have hidden all the treasures and experiences he has saved for many years in the Red House." He Lingchuan added some charcoal to the brazier, " When Yang Chi is escorted into the palace, he will also reveal the location of the Red House. If you go there too late, it is likely that the place will be looted by King Yao first. "

Isn't that a waste of natural resources? When he thought that the Red House was not far from the border of Yao Kingdom, Dong Rui slapped the handrail: "I'll leave before dawn!"

Having said this, he poured out a lot of things from the storage ring: "These are the trophies found from Cao Wendao."

He and He Lingchuan were in the same team, and the spoils had to be distributed.

There are five protective instruments, which can still be used after some repair.

Then there was a lot of miscellaneous and broken stuff, which He Lingchuan couldn't understand either. Dong Rui explained that these are treasures that only demon puppet masters can use.

He pointed at something that looked like a pine cone and said: "This is a magical tool. It can put the demon puppet in to sleep. I can also take it around with me."

"Is it just that it can pretend to be a living thing and move around?" It is indeed an incredible function. Ordinary storage instruments cannot hold living objects, but although medieval treasures such as the Soul-Taking Mirror can hold living objects, they must be stationary and cannot be moved at the time, because it opens its own small world in real time and is connected to the larger world.

The only magic weapon in He Lingchuan's hand that can transport living creatures is the "Xili Dongtian" that he received from Cen Boqing. However, it can only transport one living creature at a time, and it has weight and time restrictions.

"It's not any living creature, only demon puppets." Dong Rui shook his head, "I've tried it, believe me. This thing might have something to do with gods."

There were also dozens of pill bottles. Ling Guang picked up a bottle, sniffed it twice, and shook his head: "It's not a good thing."

There are also four notebooks with sloppy handwriting. Dong Rui said that these are Cao Wendao's notes.

This old demon puppet master, like him, likes to record inspiration, experience, problems and data anytime and anywhere.

Then, there are notes with a face value of more than 800,000 taels, as well as a lot of jewelry, gold, and a few black crystals.

Black people eat black people, and make money quickly.

Dong Rui pointed to the thick stack of treasure notes and said: "Maybe there is money to buy your life in here."

"Then I will accept it with pleasure." He Lingchuan only took the smallest denomination of silver note, which is 10,000 taels, and then pointed to the remaining things on the table and asked, "Auntie, do you want anything?"

The eyeball spider raised its front paw and wiped its forehead: "No! I can't use anything here."

Aunt Zhu was hiding outside the villa.

It also contributed to tonight's action, so of course it had a share of the spoils. But it looked at the things on the table, and there was neither delicious nor fun.

My sister always collects silver notes, but it doesn't like it.

Forget it, forget it, Dong Rui is a bargain.

He Lingchuan said, "The remaining money will be used as your research funds for the next two periods. I will not allocate additional funds."

Dong Rui was overjoyed. He Lingchuan only allocated tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars each time, which was very stingy.

With this 800,000 yuan in hand, he could spend it for a long time!

He immediately asked Guiyuan to pack up everything on the table and leave immediately.

Dong Rui was a guest official in Yongquan Villa. He lived in seclusion and rarely showed up for meals. He only appeared at night, just like he was invisible. The palace guards of Yaoguo could not remember that there was such a person as him, and they would not pay too much attention to him at ordinary times.

After all, to maintain such a large villa, no one knows how many people go in and out every day.

…

Yaowang Palace.

The night rain was gurgling, and there were several lightning and thunder in succession, which made the whole palace tremble.

Qiu Long thought to himself that it was bad, and hurried to Yaowang's bed to see if the master was awakened.

As soon as he approached, the low voice of King Yao came from the bed curtain: "What time is it?"

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

"Who wouldn't wake up with such a loud thunder?" After the first thunder, King Yao woke up.

He remembered that when he was young, he slept so deeply that no matter how loud the thunder was, he couldn't wake up.

Alas, he is old after all.

"Recently, there have been bursts of winter thunder, which is against common sense." The winter in Tianshui City is usually very quiet, and the snowflakes will not make a sound when they fall to the ground, unlike this year when it is cold and hot, and it rains as soon as it gets hot. "Abnormal, really abnormal."

Should I use Yuanli to intervene? It seems a bit of an exaggeration.

Besides, a lot of Yuanli has been approved for the expansion of the new city, and if more is used, it will be discussed by officials.

Qiu Long knew what the master was thinking, and changed the subject: "I have to change my boots when I go out tomorrow morning. The ground is frozen after the rain."

King Yao shook his head: "I always feel that something abnormal is brewing in this city."

Where will it come from? He had already sent people to keep an eye on Qingyang Regent, and her whereabouts were not unusual.

"Your Majesty, your worries are justified." Qiu Long said gently, "But you must rest well tonight and recuperate, because there is still an early court in two hours."

Just as King Yao was about to speak, there was a sudden sound of pecking on the door leaf outside.

The sky fell? What kind of important matter dared to disturb the king's sweet dream at this time?

Qiu Long hurried out.

After half a cup of tea, he hurried back and whispered a few words in King Yao's ear.

So, Zhao Song was able to meet the king.

There was thunder and rain outside the house, and the king and his ministers whispered inside.

By the time Zhao Song recounted everything that happened tonight in Yongquan Villa and Taoxi, more than half an hour had passed.

Because King Yao often asked questions.

Qiu Long accompanied King Yao, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became.

An operation to assassinate He Xiao would actually involve so many secrets?

Cao Wendao, Qingyang, He Xiao, Princess Ya, Xue Zongwu...

Looking at the face of King Yao, it was getting more and more solemn, and in the end it was so gloomy that it almost dripped water.

After Zhao Song finished speaking, the palace was as quiet as a tomb, and only the sound of thunder and rain outside resounded through the world.

After a long time, King Yao said to Zhao Song: "You are very good, and you have made a contribution! Now go back to Yongquan Villa, and call He Xiao to me after dawn!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Song retreated respectfully.

Qiu Long was about to close the door, but King Yao waved his hand: "Open."

Outside the door, there was cold wind and rain, lightning and thunder, but King Yao walked to the door and took a deep breath of the cold air.

Only in this way could the boiling anger in his heart be slightly appeased.

Qiu Long quickly grabbed a cloak and put it on his shoulders: "Your Majesty, be careful not to catch a cold!"

King Yao said coldly: "Tell me, what does Beijia want?"
