In the hotel lobby.
Seeing that Chenghuo was silent and seemed to be hesitating, the third prince hurriedly handed a bunch of keys to Chenghuo.
He said at the right time: "This house is just some of the wishes of the juniors. It is mainly to leave a good impression in front of the seniors. It does not require the seniors to do anything. The seniors can just accept it with peace of mind."
Logically speaking, as a large number of monks and refugees poured into Bianjing, the land prices in Bianjing should also rise accordingly.
But because the catastrophe is approaching in the West, and people generally lack confidence in the imperial court to resist the catastrophe.
Therefore, not many people are actually willing to buy real estate in Bianjing.
People are more willing to spend money on purchasing spiritual resources, or resources that may be used during an escape, such as rations, storage bags, tents, etc.
There are also options for purchasing a boarding spot so that you can escape by boat at any time.
As well as purchasing camels, giant spine lizards and other livestock that can be used for transportation in the desert, in order to escape south across the desert.
Some people who plan to go out to sea by boat even buy a wooden boat and put it in a storage bag for emergencies.
Since there are so many places to spend money on, relatively speaking, houses in Bianjing naturally attract less attention from wealthy people.
In view of this, the mansion given to Cheng by the third prince is not considered priceless.
After thinking briefly, Chengshuo accepted the key to the house and said openly, "You are a nice person. If you encounter trouble in the future, I may consider helping you once."
"Don't dare."
The third prince said hurriedly: "I just want to leave a good impression in front of senior. If senior has nothing else to say, I will leave now."
After saying that, he left the inn together with the attendants on the left and right.
There are as many monks in Bianjing City as there are crucian carp crossing the river, and the Caifu Inn is even more crowded.
In order to prevent being disturbed by too many people, he moved to the house given by the third prince on the night of his birth.
After this night, the title of "the first person under the deep dive period" that was originally known to only a few people has spread throughout Bianjing City.
So in the next period of time, there was an endless stream of princes and court ministers who came to visit Chenghuo Mansion.
However, they were all rejected by Chengsheng.
…
time flies.
Today is the sixth day since Chengsheng entered Bianjing City.
In the courtyard, Cheng Huo was lying on a wicker chair and basking in the sun, enjoying his rare leisure time.
A maid on his left was rubbing his shoulders and legs, and a servant on his right was grilling meat skewers over a charcoal fire.
Liang State was not rich in spices, so Chenghuo took out the spices from Yuan Xiujie and asked his servants to sprinkle them on the barbecue.
For a moment, the whole house was filled with the smell of barbecue mixed with spices.
"grown ups."
In the courtyard, the voice of steward Jiang Fu rang out from behind Cheng Cheng, and he said in a respectful tone: "There is a prince outside the mansion asking for an audience."
Chengshuo said lazily: "Didn't I tell you that no one will be seen?"
"That man is different."
Jiang Fu replied: "The man said that he is the thirteenth prince of the Liang Kingdom, his name is Lezheng Xunyi, and he is your friend."
"Are you actually looking for a friend?" Chengshuo said unexpectedly, "Invite him in quickly!"
"Yes!" Jiang Fu responded, then turned around and invited Le Zhengxunyi outside the house.
Maybe it was the smell of barbecue in the yard.
Le Zhengxun heard the message first before anyone arrived: "You Cheng Daoist, you are so excited. You have turned down so many invitations from princes and ministers just to eat kebabs in the yard."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lezheng Xunyi and his junior sister Meng Qingyao followed Jiang Fu to Chengshuo.
Seeing that Cheng Huo was surrounded by maids and servants, and that the maids were all top-notch in appearance, Le Zhengxunyi said unexpectedly: "Fellow Taoist Cheng, I thought you were a cultivator who only knows how to practice hard, but I didn't expect that you also know how to enjoy!"
"You're talking about the people around me."
Chengshuo explained: "These people were given to me by the previous third prince. Otherwise, I really don't need others to serve me."
As the thirteenth prince of the Liang Kingdom, Le Zhengxunyi knew that the third prince was sent to the living residence.
He asked: "So, Cheng Daoyou has joined the third prince's command?"
"How is that possible?" Chenghuo shook his head and said, "These are all given by the third prince for free. I don't have to pay anything, let alone do anything for him."
"Ah this."
Le Zhengxun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "My third brother is still rich. Since my father became seriously ill, he spends money now, and he feels less and less worried about it, especially for you monks with high levels of cultivation. "
After some pleasantries, Cheng Sheng asked Le Zheng to inquire about the news about Emperor Liang: "By the way, what is your father's condition now? Is his illness serious?"
"It's not clear yet."
Speaking of Emperor Liang, Le Zhengxunyi frowned and said, "Apart from Yun Rusong, Li Zhuo and Xuansi, only the imperial doctors in the court can see my father."
"The rest of the people, including us princes, are missing. So I don't know what kind of disease my father is suffering from."
"Is there a possibility?" Le Zhengxunyi said, Chengshuo couldn't help but speculate: "I'm just saying it's possible. Could your father have been controlled by the deep dive monks in the court a long time ago? "
"That's not the case."
Lezheng Xunyi smiled mysteriously and said: "The reason why I, the Lezheng family, have been able to sit on the throne for so long, in addition to the support of Taoism, Great Buddhism and Tianwei Mansion, of course I also have a certain background, not to mention much. But if we only rely on three deep dive monks, it is really unlikely to hurt my father."
"Information?" Chengshuo was stunned.
But Le Zhengxunyi said vaguely: "In fact, those of us who are princes don't know what the specific background is."
"We only know that if my father really wants to take action, even Yun Rusong and the three deep dive monks can only be manipulated by my father. Life and death depend on my father's thoughts."
"Otherwise, why do you think the three deep dive monks in the court should listen to my father?"
Emperor Lezheng Tianhui of Daliang Kingdom really has a trump card that is enough to intimidate the monks in the deep dive stage.
This is exactly what Chengsheng thought.
As for what the trump card is, since Le Zhengxunyi said that he didn't know, Cheng Sheng stopped asking.
He turned to Lezheng Xunyi to ask for proof of another matter: "By the way, Xundao friend, you should still remember Yuan Xiujie and Tieniu who were in Ruyun City before, right?"
"Remember, what's wrong?" Lezheng Xunyi looked as usual.
"Just remember."
Hearing Le Zhengxunyi's answer, Chengsheng finally proved that Tieniu and Yuan Xiujie in his memory were real people.
This made him secretly relieved.
Chengshuo turned to Yuan Xiujie and Tieniu who were standing next to him, and asked Le Zhengxun: "Then, can you see them two?"
"Them?" Seeing Chenghuo pointing to the air around him and asking himself, Le Zhengxunyi's expression became strange: "Who are you talking about?"
Chengshuo said nothing and just winked at Tieniu.
The latter understood what it meant and asked Le Zheng: "Looking for a friend, maybe you can hear my voice?"
"Fellow Taoist Tie Tieniu?!" Listening to the extremely familiar voice, Le Zhengxunyi's expression became increasingly weird: "You're not dead?"
In fact, it’s not just Le Zheng Xun Yi.
The maids and servants in the courtyard, as well as the housekeeper Jiang Fu, and the junior sister beside Le Zhengxunyi all had shocked expressions on their faces.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Tieniu say to Le Zhengxun: "I should be considered dead, but somehow I am alive."
"As for how I survived, I don't know, but anyway I survived."
"Don't take it seriously." Xinghuo explained to Le Zhengxunyi: "Tianniu was not resurrected at all. The voice you hear now was actually imagined by me."
"this"
Lezheng Xunyi felt more confused.
He glanced at the junior junior sister Meng Qingyao beside him.
The latter blinked, shook his head and said with a puzzled expression: "I only heard voices, but I couldn't see anyone."
Can you still see ghosts?
Following Tieniu's voice, Le Zhengxun stretched out his hand towards its location and actually seemed to touch an arm.
"No way?
At the moment, he was even more unbelievable: "Fellow Taoist Cheng, you imagined that the Iron Ox could not only hear the sound, but also actually touch and feel it?"
"I'm definitely real."
yard.
After hearing the conversation between Chenghuo and Le Zhengxunyi, Tieniu said firmly: "It's just that for some special reasons, you can't see me for the time being."
"Besides, I have my own independent thoughts and can also feel my own existence. So, why do you think I'm a figment of imagination?"
Good guy.
Le Zhengxunyi looked at Chengshuo and was speechless.
The latter also shook his head with a wry smile and said no more.
"Let's get down to business."
Le Zhengxunyi went to the charcoal fire and took out two skewers of barbecue, and gave one of them to his junior sister Meng Qingyao. After eating, he said to Chenghuo: "I came to you this time because I have something important to tell you. .”
Chengshuo watched Le Zhengxunyi, waiting for the next chapter.
The latter continued: "Some time ago, didn't the Tianwei Mansion recruit many monks and establish an Immortal Guard?"
"In order to facilitate management and dispatch, the monks who joined the Immortal Guard were divided into three teams by the court."
"Then, the imperial court plans to select three Blood Core Stage monks from all the monks who have joined the Immortal Guard to serve as captains of the three teams."
"The monks who become captains can receive personal guidance from the Taoist leader Yun Rusong, the great Buddhist abbot Xuansi, and the Tianwei Mansion Lieutenant Li Zhuo. At that time, the imperial court will allocate all resources to these three people. In order to cultivate three deep dive monks as soon as possible."
"Training monks in the deep submergence stage?" Chengshuo was surprised when he heard this: "Looking for a Taoist friend, is your information reliable?"
Le Zhengxun thought for a while and said: "It's at least 89% credible. According to the information I got, the reason why the imperial court did this should be to resist the coming catastrophe in the West."
"In short, if we want to fight against the catastrophe, it will definitely not be enough to rely solely on Yun Rusong and the other three deep dive monks."
"But those are monks in the deep dive stage, not rotten leaves from the vegetable market." Chengshuo asked suspiciously: "Do you mean that monks in the deep dive stage can be cultivated through cultivation?"
"Hey,"
Upon hearing this, Le Zhengxunyi smiled mysteriously again and said, "Fellow Taoist Cheng, you must be underestimating my Daliang court."
"The background of our Daliang court is far deeper than you think."
"I don't want to say too much, but if there are only three monks in the deep dive stage, the imperial court can still cultivate them with gritted teeth and the whole country's efforts!"
