White-haired Demon Lord and Senior Brother

◎The situation of Jinling Pavilion◎

Covering her face and running for a while, Yang Xinsu didn't know where she had run to, she just stopped when she felt that her feet were a little tired, she lowered her hands, looked back, and saw that Yunzheng Palace could no longer be seen, so she felt relieved, I took out a small handle mirror from my arms, looked at my face in the mirror, immediately frowned and said to myself again: "It's all because Li Zhen approached suddenly, causing me to lie on the ground, this rouge, this black eyebrow all fell off It’s been several floors, hum..."

Just as he put the handle mirror back into his arms, he raised his head and just saw a person standing on the tall building in front of him. After a closer look, he saw that it was Yi Tian. I found that Yitian's eyes were staring not far away, and he couldn't pay attention to this side at all.

Curious, he also looked over there, only to see a few people walking towards him, except for a few eunuchs, they were the Prince of Guangling County - Huan Ying.

Just because he met him head-on, Huan Ying stopped and opened his lips and said, "The Imperial College is on vacation, why are you still here?"

Yang Xinsu replied: "I'm not going back, I'm going to stay in the palace until the Imperial College opens!"

Seeing his relaxed face, Huan Ying was a little worried: "Will that be boring?"

Yang Xinsu said calmly: "It's boring to go back to the geese and back to the island! Every day I'm forced to step on the plum blossom pile..." Full of resentment was written on his face, and then his face changed, and he became proud: "However, I work here , it must be delicious."

Huanying replied: "Hearing what you said, I think you seem to be quite capable. As for me, I can't play when I go home, and I have a lot of things to do..."

Yang Xinsu secretly glanced at the figure on the tall building, and suddenly changed the subject: "You just want to go back today? How about asking my brother Yitian to take you back?"

Huan Ying smiled and replied: "No need! I came to the meeting with my mother. After I got some materials, I will go back with my mother."

Yang Xinsu pursed her lips, feeling very sorry, seeing Huan Ying waved her hands to say goodbye, and also waved her hands to see her off, but when she looked up again, she found that there was no one on the balcony.

Brother Yitian has a special liking for Huanying...?Every time school starts, I come to Guozijian to watch Huanying from time to time, and every time I watch it for a while and then disappear, I don’t know what I’m thinking.Alas, although today I want to be a bridge builder, but the time is not right.

Yang Xinsu thought to herself, still walking at a leisurely pace, she couldn't remember the path she just walked, so she just took it as a way out to relax, and found the way back to her residence after a long detour.

Four days is enough to complete a task. The three people from Jinling Pavilion in Qingluan City have just arrived at Qingluan City and entered the courtyard of Jinling Pavilion. But today, Jinling Pavilion is very different. There is no sound of flipping books. There is no sound of moving materials, no sound of writing, and no human language for discussion, only the sound of weapons rubbing, and a few handsome and heroic figures.

"What day is today?" Xuan Hengzhi asked curiously, bearing the brunt of it.

One of the elegant figures stopped, lowered the machete in his hand, turned around and replied with a smile: "There is no investigation mission, but the minister thinks we are too boring, so he sent us out to exercise!"

Xuan Hengzhi asked: "Daqing is also in Jinling Pavilion today?"

Someone replied: "Rest in the ear room on the left." Then he leaned over and confessed in a low voice: "Otherwise we wouldn't be so diligent in exercising our muscles and bones here."

Knowing this, Xuan Heng led the other two brothers into the left ear room.After crossing the threshold and walking eight steps, the first thing you see is a two-foot-high gold-bronze pot-shaped stove with green luan patterns, but it is midsummer now, and there is no need to light it, and the wall of the stove is as cold as winter.About two feet behind the stove stands a nine-curved screen with black lacquer and gold engraved with four gods and beasts carved with blue dragon, white tiger, red bird, and basalt. Behind the screen is a Maitreya couch with two soft cushions, and a square coffee table placed on it. In the center of Maitreya couch.

Now the screen has been pulled open, covering the Maitreya couch behind, and a burst of orchid fragrance slowly floats out from behind the screen, indicating that someone is resting on the Maitreya couch.

Xuan Hengzhi led the other two brothers only to the front of the stove and then stopped, only cupped their hands towards the screen, and said with open lips: "Daqing, we are back."

Huang Yan's voice came from behind the screen: "Shenzhuo has checked up and down the villa?"

Xuan Hengzhi replied: "Yes. Shentuo Villa has a total of 670 five rooms, 380 six buildings, as well as steps, paths and gardens. We have checked them all."

Huang Yan knows everything about Shenzhao Villa better than anyone else.When he was in charge at the beginning, he divided the villa into East Court, West Court, South Court and North Court, and each court was divided into upper, middle and lower levels, namely East Upper Court, East Middle Court, East Lower Court, West Upper Court, and West Middle Court. , West Lower Court, South Upper Court, South Middle Court, South Lower Court, North Upper Court, North Middle Court and North Lower Court.

At that time, he lived in the East Upper Court, let Shangyuan He Xiang live in the East Middle Court, let He Xiao live in the East Lower Court, and placed thaumaturgy masters in the West Court, and placed swordsmen in the South Court, while the North Court was mainly handymen. .

So he asked: "Have you found anything suspicious in the west courtyard?"

Mo Fengying was in charge of searching the West Courtyard, and replied: "I want to tell you, I found a place called Yongling Cave in the West Courtyard, which seems to be a place for alchemy, but apart from the alchemy furnace, it is a mess! "

After hearing this, Huang Yan was quite concerned, and hurriedly asked: "How messed up?"

Mo Fengying replied: "There are a few medicine bottles on the shelf, which are different from other medicine bottles, as if they were knocked down by someone. There are also a few broken medicine bottles on the ground. Both the medicine and medicine powder are spilled on the ground. It has dried out, leaving only water marks, and the powder has been damp, and it has become like dry mud. The books on the bookshelf are also unevenly arranged, and the corners of the books are obviously creased. Someone should have flipped through them roughly before stuffing them When I went back, there were several books on the ground. The covers of the books were covered with thick dust, and some of the bronze pots were tilted here and there, with strange scratches on the outer walls. There were also some crystal fragments left behind the treasure chest! "

Huang Yan propped his left cheek sideways, and couldn't help thinking: Yongling Cave is Wu Lao's alchemy room. According to my understanding of him, when he was tinkering in this alchemy room, he would always accidentally mess things up, but he would never Breaking the medicine bottle, the Shenrao Villa was attacked by Qingluan City, and when I returned to the villa, most of the villa was destroyed. I don’t know when the alchemy room became a mess, or after that?

Seeing no reaction from Huang Yan, Xuan Heng called out, "Your Excellency?"

Huang Yan opened his lips: "Besides the Yongling Cave in the west courtyard, are there other places that are not right?"

Fan Ziyin suddenly remembered, and replied: "I'm telling you, I've searched the South Courtyard, and all the weapon records are still there, and the whetstone doesn't seem to have been touched by anyone, but there are a few empty places on the weapon rack, which are left on the rack. All of them are ordinary swords."

Huang Yan thought again: So, the sword and sword should have been taken away by someone. At that time, Yanfeng and I went to Shenzhao Villa, and the weapons we saw along the way were not sword or sword.Heh, knowing so well what treasures are hidden in Shentuo Villa, it seems that part of my subordinates sneaked back to the villa to take the treasures after escaping from birth?

Seeing that the report was over, Xuan Hengzhi hurriedly asked, "What's your opinion?"

Huang Yan still supported his left cheek, and said: "Hengzhi, the three of you first write down the task completed this time in detail, and hand it to me in three days."

The three of them bowed their hands at the same time to accept the order, saying: "Of order." Then they left the ear room one after another.

Huang Yan lowered his eyes slightly, and tapped his bent right knee with the other hand, and then stopped suddenly, his eyelids were completely closed, covering his silver-gray pupils, and his long silver-white hair was slightly messy. Put it on the back collar and hang down on the couch.

Just as the three of Xuan Heng came out of the left ear room, a group of people who were competing with each other immediately stopped, stepped forward, and surrounded the three of them, making them unable to advance or retreat, and asked the three of them in a hurry.

"How is it? What's your order? When can we rest?"

Xuan Hengzhi replied frankly: "The Minister only ordered the three of us to write an investigation report, and he didn't say anything else."

What—no—say—? !

After hearing this, a group of people stared wide-eyed and collapsed on the spot.

Fan Ziyin smiled and said, "You guys continue to exercise your muscles and bones, it's good for your health." He just followed Xuan Hengzhi and Mo Fengying towards the main room ahead.

The sun is tilted westward, and it is already afternoon.

Although Yang Xinsu wanted to take advantage of the midsummer vacation to be lazy, but in order to stay in the palace well, she had no choice but to fulfill her promise, get up diligently, walk out of the palace alone, and came to the City God's Obscure Moon Square.

"The right side of the Shisan Tiao intersection... the right side of the Shisan Tiao intersection..."

While looking for the way, he muttered in his mouth. After walking for a while, he came to the intersection of Shisan Tiao. He took a look at the first shop on the right, and saw a very eye-catching blue sky hanging on the high wall. A signboard flag in black, and on the flag are written "Su's" and "Jiufanpu" in ink.

"This signboard seems familiar?" He was stunned for a moment, and after talking to himself, he walked towards the door of the store. As soon as he reached the door, he deliberately raised his head to glance at the horizontal plaque hanging on the lintel, and saw 'Su's -The moment Jiufanpu's big words were opened, I was slightly taken aback, and murmured in a low voice: "No wonder the signboard looks familiar! It's too... too emperor's shop!"

Just when he was about to run away, he was discovered by Xiaoer by accident.Xiao Er, wearing a frosty white apron, stepped forward quickly, with a smile on his face, and greeted: "Guest officer, welcome to our store. We just got a new one recently, why don't you come in and try it?"

Hearing these words, Yang Xinsu was embarrassed and left like this, but she didn't come here to spend money, and she didn't know how to explain it. She was nervous, and couldn't help hemming and saying: "I... I... I was instructed... to come here work to earn a living……"

Xiaoer smiled like this: "Excuse me, is your name Yang Xinsu?"

Because of this sentence, Yang Xinsu calmed down for a while, and replied loudly: "Yes! It's me!"

Xiaoer said: "The owner has sent a letter to inform that the shopkeeper is waiting for you upstairs. Come with me." Turning around, he led Yang Xinsu up the steps and went upstairs.
