The Indifferent Prince's Substitute

At dawn on the second day, Rong Yuan got up and took a shower.Uncle Zhang was arranging the luggage for him by the bed, and at the same time talking about how Lin Yan was worried that he would be hungry on the road, so he went to the street to buy several packs of pastries for him. Even if you don’t like it, take it with you, and give it to the poor beggars you meet along the way, don’t throw it away casually.”

Zhang Bo thought that he would definitely refuse, so he prepared a lot of threatening words, and as soon as he refused, he would blurt out, but saw Rong Yuan wring out the soaked veil, lowered his head and let out a soft hum.

A lot of words were stuck in his mouth, Uncle Zhang was surprised for a long time before he could react, Rong Yuan had quickly put on his clothes and packed them, and asked the guards to pick up the luggage and stepped out the door.

Lin Yan woke up early in the morning and heard that Rong Yuan had gone out to pick up the queen and the little prince from Linghua Temple.The little squirrel had a day off yesterday and was full of energy. She asked Lin Yan to take him to see Rabbit Jing.

There was nothing to do in the mansion, so Lin Yan told Mother Zhao, with the little oriole in her arms and Qiuyun by her side, she went out to Tonghua Lane.

It was Tu Er who opened the door. He was very pleasantly surprised to see him, and welcomed him in. He said, "My brother came back yesterday. I was going to tell you where I was going, so here you are."

Another rabbit spirit is back?Lin Yan went into the yard, and saw Yueniang coming out of the main room, followed by a tall and tall strange young man in a coarse cloth gown.This should be Tu Er's older brother Tu Yi.

"Brother, this is the little tree I told you about yesterday..." Tu Eryi spoke quickly, almost slipping, but luckily he reacted in time, and stopped, "Lin...Young Master Lin."

"Sister Qiuyun, I was on the street just now, and I heard that Tianxiang Teahouse has a new sweet-scented osmanthus almond cake. Help me line up to buy two boxes. They will be gone by the end of the night." Lin Yan sent Qiuyun away.

As soon as Qiuyun left, Tu Yi took out a piece of silver from his waist and handed it to Yueniang, saying: "Yueniang, please go and buy some vegetables, we want to treat this Young Master Lin to dinner."

Yueniang took the broken silver, smiled softly at Lin Yan, and went out.

Tu Er hurriedly closed the door, warmly invited Lin Yan and said: "Xiao Shuteng, come in and sit down, there are only me and my brother at home."

He suddenly snorted, "You also brought a little oriole? Is it also a little monster?"

The little squirrel jumped out of Lin Yan's arms, flapped its wings and landed on top of Lin Yan's head. Heidou looked at Tu Yi and then Tu Er, and said hello, "Rabbit spirit, how are you."

Entering the room, Tu Yi said gratefully to Lin Yan: "My brother told me about the spider spirit, thank you for helping him to get the antidote."

"That spider spirit is very vicious, why did you ask her to give you the antidote?" Tu Yi asked curiously as he lifted the teapot and poured a cup of tea to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan told the truth, "She was injured, and I healed her wound."

Tu Yi was puzzled, "Aren't you a little tree and vine demon? You can also heal injuries, are you studying medicine?"

"No," Lin Yan shook her head, "My vine juice has the effect of promoting wound healing."

Tu Yi and Tu Er looked at each other, what kind of vine is this, why haven't they heard of it?

"By the way, are there many monsters in the capital? Do you all have contact with each other?" Lin Yan asked Tu Er, curious about the monsters outside, before he had time to ask Tu Er twice.

"Of course there are a lot of them. The capital is where the dragon spirit is. Not only are there many local monsters, but there are also many monsters from other places." Tu Erdao, "But everyone doesn't interact much in private. Monsters are used to living alone, only people like me and my brother Brother, just live together."

"Dragon Qi?" Xiao Huangque stood on top of Lin Yan's head and asked puzzledly, "What is Dragon Qi? What does it have to do with the number of monsters in the capital?"

"Dragon Qi is the Qi of Emperors." Tu Er looked at them speechlessly, "Which remote mountain did you come from? Dragon Qi can help monsters increase their cultivation. The closer you are to Dragon Qi, the better."

Lin Yan suddenly realized, no wonder there was a monster in the palace, it turned out that it was rushing to the emperor's side to increase his cultivation.

Seeing that they didn't know anything, Tu Yi explained to them, "Monsters can only rely on two kinds to increase their cultivation base, the aura of heaven and earth and the dragon aura of human emperors. Most of the places where aura of heaven and earth are abundant are in remote mountains that are inaccessible. It's hard to find, even if you find it, it has already been occupied by big monsters, and the little monsters with low cultivation level can't get close. The capital is where the dragon spirit of the human emperor is, and the emperor usually has very powerful monster catchers around him, even big monsters can't get close. They don't dare to be presumptuous, so the little monsters prefer to pretend to be ordinary humans and come to this capital, as long as they don't do bad things and are good monsters, everything will be fine."

"But this dragon energy is getting weaker and weaker." Tu Er complained, "Many monsters have left the capital, looking for a mountain with beautiful mountains and clear waters, even if the spirit energy is thin, it is better than in this capital."

"Why is the dragon spirit weak? The emperor is still very young." Thinking of the emperor he and Rong Yuan met last time when they entered the palace, Lin Yan was puzzled.

Tu Yi patiently explained, "Dragon Qi has nothing to do with age, it only has to do with the emperor's own ability and courage. Now the emperor's ability and courage are not as good as those of the previous emperors, so the dragon spirit is naturally weaker."

"Human emperors are not as good as each generation." Tu Er shook his head beside him, "The most powerful and strongest dragon spirit is the first emperor Qingyuan."

Speaking of Emperor Qingyuan, Tu Ermei danced with joy, "You must have never heard of Emperor Qingyuan in the col, and I heard it from Grandpa Shu before I came to the capital. 200 years ago, the feudal lords separated their regimes, and there were wars everywhere, and the people were in dire straits. It was Emperor Qingyuan who was born. It took only ten years to unify the princes and establish the Daqing Dynasty. It is a pity that he died too early, before he was 30 years old. Otherwise, the tribes of Northwest Dog Rong would definitely have It has already been united."

"However, even if Emperor Qingyuan dies, his dragon aura is the strongest among these emperors. It's a pity that none of us monsters can enter Longyuan Mountain where he is buried." Tu Er sighed regretfully.

Yongyeon Mountain?Isn't it the mountain where they live?Lin Yan moved his ears, turned his head and looked at the little squirrel flying on his shoulder, and asked, "Can you enter Longyuan Mountain?"

Tu Yiyi: "It's not just us. Ever since Emperor Qingyuan died and was buried in Longyuan Mountain, all monsters can't enter Longyuan Mountain. Rumor has it that Emperor Qingyuan didn't want to be disturbed after his death. People have sealed the entire Longyuan Mountain."

"Longyuan Mountain was not originally called Longyuan Mountain, but a silent and nameless mountain. Emperor Qingyuan specially asked a mage to change the terrain and pattern, and it became a place full of spiritual energy. Later, he was buried in it again, and all the spiritual energy and dragon energy were there. Yuanshan has become a sacred place for cultivation. It's a pity that the monsters outside can't enter, which makes it easier for those monsters who originally lived in Longyuan Mountain." Tu Er was sour and jealous, "I spent a year in Longyuan Mountain and practiced outside. After ten years, those little monsters inside must be big monsters now. In the entire Longyuan Mountain, there are countless big monsters, lions, tigers, wolves and other ferocious beasts must be fighting for territory every day."

Lin Yan and Xiao Huangque looked at each other in blank dismay.Is Longyuan Mountain so powerful?But there are no big monsters in the mountains, not even slightly stronger ones.As for ferocious beasts, there were no hinterlands where they lived, but when they came out of Longyuan Mountain, they saw some ferocious beasts like tigers and wolves on the outskirts of the hinterland.But these ferocious beasts didn't turn into monsters, they were just ordinary animals.

He grew up so big, and the most ferocious monster he had ever seen was the wild boar that dug him out of the ground.

"Where are you from?" Tu Yi asked them.

"...Longyuan Mountain..." Lin Yan hesitated to speak. He was embarrassed to hear that Longyuan Mountain was so powerful.

"Hey, you guys are from near Longyuan Mountain?" Tu Er said in surprise.In his impression, there are big monsters in Longyuan Mountain, and Lin Yan and Little Yellow Bird are so weak, they can only come from the small mountains near Longyuan Mountain.

He asked enthusiastically: "Have you ever seen monsters coming out of Longyuan Mountain? Are all of them very powerful?"

Lin Yan and Xiao Huangque looked at each other, and said vaguely in embarrassment: "No... I haven't seen it before."

Tu Er let out a disappointed "Oh".

"You have just arrived in the capital, and I will show you around in the future." Tu Yidao said, "There is a monster market on the outskirts of the capital. When the day opens, I will take you to see it."

"Monster Market?" The little squirrel shook its wings and tilted its head curiously.

"It's a place where monsters exchange and sell items. It opens once a month. Most of them are monsters living near the capital, and there are also a few monsters from other places. Take out the items and medicinal materials that you pick on the mountain and make by yourself. Buy and sell. It's very lively." Tu Er happily explained, "If you're lucky, you can get a few medicinal herbs that are very precious in the eyes of humans from the hands of monsters from other places, and you can resell them in human pharmacies, and you'll make a lot of money."

Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat, would there be Xuan Yun ginseng that his mother needs in the monster market?

He asked, "When does the monster market open?"

Tu Yidao: "Three days later. Come over when the time comes, and we will take you there."

Lin Yan nodded in response, paused, and asked hesitantly: "All monsters cannot enter Longyuan Mountain, is there no exception?"

"Exception?" Tu Er scratched his head and thought of it, "There are exceptions. Small monsters in Longyuan Mountain cannot enter, but big monsters with a thousand years can enter. But there are very few big monsters with a thousand years, and they are all hidden in the deep mountains , almost no demons have seen."

When Yueniang came back from buying vegetables, Lin Yan left after eating.Going back to the palace, closing the door, Lin Yan and Xiao Huangque looked at each other and questioned in a low voice, "Is our Longyuan Mountain so powerful?"

The little squirrel scratched its head with its wings, and said doubtfully, "Yes, why didn't we feel it. But if what the two rabbit spirits said is true, then your master is a thousand-year-old monster."

Lin Yan pursed his lips. When he was playing on the mountain ten years ago, he met a monster from outside the mountain. Seeing that he couldn't transform himself, the monster offered to be his master and teach him how to transform.He didn't agree at first, his master was always chasing him, so he was so annoyed that he had to agree.

At that time, he thought that his master was a poor monster who couldn't even accept his apprentices, but he didn't expect to be a thousand-year-old monster.It's a pity that the master left Longyuan Mountain eight years ago, and he promised to come back to see his transformation, but he hasn't come back until now, he is really a big liar.

Three days later, Lin Yan went to Tonghua Lane again, and in the tea that Qiu Yun drank, secretly poured some drowsy medicine. Tu Er's carriage went to the outskirts of the capital.

After driving for nearly an hour, the carriage stopped beside an empty dense forest.Lin Yan got out of the carriage and followed behind the two brothers Tu Yi Tu Er.Looking around while walking.

Tu Yi led the way, walked to a few unremarkable trees, and saw him knocking on the trees regularly, the air in front of Lin Yan suddenly swayed, Tu Yi took a step forward, and disappeared into the swaying in the air.

Before Lin Yan could be surprised, Tu Er grabbed his arm, took him a step forward, and disappeared into the air.
