In the city lord's palace, the lavender peach blossoms bloomed extremely prosperously.
The breeze blew up Jiang Caijin's clothes. He pursed his lips upwards and said in a deep voice, "This matter must not be leaked at all."
"Yes." Jiang Yuping nodded respectfully.
He was very clear about the meaning of the city lord's words, because he knew very well that once this matter was leaked, Master Yu would become famous throughout the country and would no longer be within the control of their ancient city.
Fifty years of life may be nothing outside the Great Ruins. However, within the Great Ruins, pills of this level are already of the highest quality.
"Let's go over and meet him." Jiang Caijin seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Yes, City Lord." Jiang Yuping followed him with a respectful expression.
The hall is antique and appropriately decorated, gorgeous but not charming, elegant but not vulgar.
Three cups of Qianye tea, the fragrance of tea overflows, and bursts of fragrance spread out.
Jiang Caijin smiled faintly and said: "Come on, Master Yu, try this Thousand Leaf Tea. This is not a product of the Great Ruins. It is infinitely more precious than gold. I am reluctant to drink it on weekdays. I am willing to take it out only when distinguished guests come. , the number of people in the whole market who can give me this tea is less than one palm."
Ouyang Ming quickly put down the teacup in his hand, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Thank you City Lord Jiang for your love. I'm flattered."
"Hey, what Master Yu said is too outrageous. If it weren't for you, my Dan Lake wouldn't be full of life." He waved his hand and pretended to glare.
"Dan Lake?" Ouyang Ming became more interested and turned his head to ask.
"Yes, after a monk survives the heavenly tribulation, he can break his spirit and become a saint, and his Dantian can turn into a lake. Maybe it's called a different name. The monks in the Great Ruins called it Dan Lake." Jiang Caijin had a smile on her face, but her words were different. With an inexplicable meaning, Qianye tea was like this before, and it is still like this now.
Ouyang Ming knew in his heart that even if he imitated the Qi of the natives of Daxu, he still couldn't hide it from the powerful masters at the level of venerables.
Even if his Qi is blocked and his vitality seems to be gone, he is still a venerable person.
Of course, this is also the reason why Ouyang Ming has been in Daxu for a very short time. In a few months, he is confident that even the people who are most familiar with him will not be able to tell the difference. After all, this is the Sky Phoenix Fire, it is so powerful. It's just so unreasonable.
After a while, he didn't hide anything and glanced at Jiang Yuping with a smile, with a sharp edge in his eyes.
Jiang Caijin was an old fox. Of course she understood what Ouyang Ming meant and said softly: "Master Yu, if you have anything to say, just say it. Yu Ping has been with me for hundreds of years and is trustworthy."
Ouyang Ming did not hesitate at all, his face was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "City Lord Jiang, I would like to know what is going on with the power of blood in the Great Ruins?"
Ouyang Ming asked this question after careful consideration. First, this question is not difficult, but how to explain things in a simple and profound way is difficult. Secondly, Ouyang Ming can use this question to find out how strong the power behind Jiang Caijin is. Only in this way can he be aware of it, and he will naturally have a deeper and better grasp of the following questions.
Jiang Caijin's face showed a true expression.
After organizing the vocabulary in his mind, he sighed softly: "No one knows where the Great Ruins came from. It seems to have fallen from the sky overnight. According to the ancient records of the clan, the Great Ruins were originally a dead place. The land is barren and lifeless. A river of blood runs through the ruins. There is a mysterious power hidden in this blood river, which is extremely powerful. Later, after thousands of years of attempts, all races absorbed the power in the blood and transformed into It is the two major branches of dragon and phoenix, and is specifically divided into three dragons and three phoenixes. Taking the Black Dragon family as an example, one strand of blood is light, the second strand of blood is flat, the third strand of blood is mysterious, the fourth strand of blood is survival, and the fifth strand is return. Ancestor."
Ouyang Ming nodded and thought to himself, Xiaoman was originally from the ancestral bloodline, but after the blood essence was taken away, he should now have four strands of bloodline.
Jiang Caijin took a sip of tea, then spoke, "Of course, it is extremely rare to return to one's ancestors by bloodline." When he said this, he didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes turned a bit gloomy.
But it is exactly what he said before - tell everything you know, and tell everything you know.
Ouyang Ming sorted it out in his mind for a moment, and then asked: "I wonder if City Lord Jiang has ever heard of Hui Jianfeng?"
Jiang Caijin moved her wrist, turning the memories in her mind like pages in a book, and searched carefully. After half an hour, she shook her head and said: "I'm sorry for my limited knowledge, but I have never heard of it. I have read three thousand Taoist canons, but I have never seen it." The ruins are boundless, and only 30% of the area is currently known. The rest of the area is filled with black fog, and even the gray sunlight cannot penetrate these places. Even the venerable ones dare not approach them easily. , Hui Jianfeng, if it is true, I'm afraid..." He didn't finish his sentence, but Ouyang Ming understood what he meant.
"Where is the Dragon Temple?" Ouyang Ming said in a deep voice without giving up.
Jiang Caijin still shook his head and took a sip of Qianye tea.
Ouyang Ming's mind was in turmoil. He rubbed the center of his eyebrows gently and asked, "Are there any Jedi within the known area?"
At this moment, Jiang Caijin opened her mouth and exhaled without thinking, and said three place names in succession: "Desolate Desert, Extreme Smoke Pool, and Dead Extreme Sea."
"What strange phenomena are happening in these places?" Ouyang Ming's voice rose a little, and he rubbed the tea cup with his fingers.
Jiang Caijin did not sell it, and said directly: "The barren desert is located outside Wangqian. The desert is in flames and burning all year round. The farther you go in, the higher the temperature. Only monks with the blood of dragon and phoenix can go deep. But How far you can go depends on the purity of your bloodline, but even if you have the ancestral bloodline, you can't get to the core. No one knows what secrets are hidden there. A wisp of misty cold smoke can kill people invisible, although it is not big. , but countless people got lost in it and turned into mummies, but they survived and had fighting instincts. The water in the Dead Sea is black and red, and the resentment on the sea will last for thousands of years, especially in the Dead Sea. Hai, not even the peak master dares to say that he will be able to escape unharmed." Jiang Caijin's voice was hoarse, and her voice trembled slightly when she mentioned the Dead Sea.
"Thank you City Lord Jiang for informing me." Ouyang Ming bowed his hands.
"It doesn't matter, these questions are not ulterior secrets. When you reach a certain level, you will always know. However, I only answered one of the questions Master Yu asked before. I am really ashamed." Jiang Caijin waved his sleeves, his face The wrinkles are all wrinkled together.
Although Ouyang Ming was a little disappointed, he cupped his hands and said, "Master Jiang's words are serious. It's getting late, so I won't disturb you."
Jiang Caijin nodded lightly and said in a deep voice: "Yu Ping, give me a gift to Master Yu."
"Yes!" Jiang Yuping looked extremely respectful.
Jiang Yuping sent Ouyang Ming to Changshou Lane in a sedan chair.
After returning, he took the initiative to go to Jiang Caijin's study and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Jiang Caijin's voice was calm, with no hint of emotion or anger.
I took a look at the picture of the Nine Heavens Fairy hanging on the wall. Most of the picture was filled with mist, and the mountains were looming. In the middle of the picture, a woman wearing a long skirt had an ethereal figure, a fair face, perfect collarbones, and lively eyes, as if she could talk. Similarly, it is misty on the top of the mountains, giving people a sense of inaccessibility.
There is an inkstone placed under the fairy picture, and the ink is extremely delicate.
After Jiang Yuping walked into the study, he said softly: "City Lord, it has been delivered."
Jiang Caijin took out a piece of purple hair of excellent quality, polished it, and wrote the words "Hui Jianfeng" on the rice paper.
Putting the brush on the inkstone, he whispered: "What do you think of Yu Tianrui?"
"The great wisdom is like a fool, and the mind is like a demon." These are two contradictory words, but he used them together.
But Jiang Caijin did not refute, nodded slightly, and responded: "Yes, at this age, not only is the art of alchemy superb, but he is also a spell caster, and even the city is not much worse than us two old guys. This kind of person is destined to be. Born in troubled times. But now, a storm is coming, and several major families are looking for ways to save themselves. "
Jiang Yuping pondered for a while, then lowered his voice and asked, "When will the great disaster come?"
Jiang Caijin's face showed a dazed look, and she shook her head slightly: "I don't know, but every catastrophe will kill people, many, many people. However, how this catastrophe was formed, I can't tell at all now." This topic Heavy, even his voice became heavy.
There was a sudden silence in the study, a deathly silence.
The light of the candlelight in the ruins is not dim, but has a touch of gray.
After a long silence, Jiang Caijin's eyes flashed and he whispered: "Use the family's power to check the names of Jianfeng and Dragon Temple."
Jiang Yuping didn't hesitate at all, clasped his fists and bowed out.
Jiang Caijin looked at the dim sky, wondering where her thoughts were going.
Back in Changshou Alley, it was already evening. The sun was shining, not warm at all, but with a bone-chilling chill.
The elixir shop is still crowded with monks who come to buy elixirs. It is orderly and harmonious. It has been spread in the city for a long time that Master Yu of the elixir shop was invited by the city lord in a sedan chair. My dear, this is the venerable master. Even the several alchemists who wanted to suppress the elixir shop quickly stopped. You have offended His Holiness and don’t want to live anymore
Jiang Qingcheng is busy working in the store. Although she is still a lolita, her figure can already be seen as slender.
She has a beautiful face, skin as good as snow, and her black hair is swaying behind her. She smiles slightly, and it really means that she is looking at the whole city.
After she saw Ouyang Ming, she ran up to him with three steps at a time, showing cute dimples on her face, and said with a smile: "Uncle Yu!"
Ouyang Ming's face turned dark, and a black mist seemed to hang over his head.
When Jiang Qingcheng saw this scene, he smiled even more proudly and called "Uncle Yu" twice in a row.
"Damn girl!" Ouyang Ming cursed, pretending to hit her.
Jiang Qingcheng's eyes suddenly became watery and pitiful, and she said: "I can help you look at the store for a whole day..."
Ouyang Ming smiled and took his hand back. With a roll of his eyes, he slapped a poisonous insect into mincemeat and said with a smile, "How can I do that? Aren't I afraid that it will bite you?"
Jiang Qingcheng tilted her head, with a cunning look in her eyes. She took two steps back, exhaled and said, "Uncle Yu, I'm going home."
Before she finished speaking, she ran away with a sweet smile, her smile bright and carefree.
