"The royal tomb is divided into two parts, the above-ground and the underground. The underground is the so-called tomb, and the above-ground is where people worship and the tomb-keepers live. The above-ground part is divided into the inner palace, the middle courtyard and the outer courtyard. The inner palace is Although the place where the prince's family lives has not yet been completed, it contains many daily necessities for the prince as well as sacrifices from various places. In order to prevent the loss of valuables, the special envoy and those around him are kindly requested to enter with caution. In the middle courtyard, It is the place where the servants and guards will live in the future, and it is also where we are temporarily stationed. If the special envoy doesn't dislike it, he will live with your people in the middle courtyard, and we will also clear out the best rooms." Lin Wei led the way. While introducing Jiang You.
"What did you say, General? In the final analysis, this junior is just a Qi practitioner who was lucky enough to be chosen by Fairy Fengyao. In fact, we are not pampered people, not to mention that in the current crisis, it would be nice to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain. , how dare you be picky?" Jiang You smiled bitterly. After all, her identity was all fake, so the more polite Lin Wei was to her, the more she felt guilty, for fear that he would settle the score after he knew the truth.
Moreover, Jiang You also knew that from the beginning, no one believed that Jiang You's identity was true, but no one could refute it for a while, and it was in everyone's interest to push Lin Yan to the front. For most people, Lin Yan's false identity can ensure their safety, but unknown to him, Lin Wei has other ideas.
In fact, Lin Wei had long wanted to let people in. After all, protecting the people has always been the Huo family's creed. But now that King Zhongwu is dead, and his duty has become to guard the mausoleum, he has to Think more. But Lin Yan's appearance just gave him an excuse, but he couldn't bear to let a girl carry everything, so he could only give her more care before the court and Fairy Fengyao pursued her. This was also his reason The reason why he has always been so polite to Jiang You.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang You and his party were taken to a hall in the middle courtyard. This seemed to be a place for normal discussions. There were three people sitting inside, including a man and a woman. The man was wearing a civil official uniform and there was a Many of the drawings seemed to belong to technicians in this world; the woman looked to be in her early thirties, luxuriously dressed, exuding a capable and calm temperament, and her status was obviously not low.
As for the remaining man, he was wearing a different official uniform from the other civil servants. Judging from his white hair but no beard, he should be a eunuch from the palace.
Seeing Jiang You and others appearing, the woman smiled strangely and said, "General Lin, who is the princess's special envoy you are talking about?"
Lin Wei then pointed at Jiang You and introduced: "His name is Lin Yan. He is the one named by Fairy Fengyao."
Then Lin Wei pointed at the woman and introduced: "This senior sister is called Shi Shuang. She used to be the prince's maid in the backyard. Now she is the superintendent of the royal tomb, and she is the person in charge here."
"Junior has met senior." Jiang You hurriedly saluted. After all, she was at the peak of Nascent Soul, and her cultivation alone was enough to stop her from neglecting him.
Shishuang's eyes were strange. She just looked Jiang You up and down but didn't reply immediately.
"Did the fairy see something wrong?" The eunuch on the side asked doubtfully.
Shishuang shook her head slightly and asked, "I heard that your parents died to save the prince. Do you know what happened?"
"I don't know." Jiang You replied, "I only know that my parents rushed to the outside of the pass to respond after hearing the news of King Zhongwu's attack, but they never came back."
"Why do you ask the fairy like that?" the eunuch said displeasedly, "General Yan has made everything very clear. Is it possible that you still have any questions?"
"I'm just asking casually."
Shishuang shook her head slightly, and then said to Jiang You: "Since you have the password of Fairy Fengyao and the name of representing the prince, we agree to help you, but the ugly words are still ahead. Use the royal mausoleum to resist the demon There is no problem with the beast, but the construction of the royal tomb cannot be delayed, and I hope you can maintain order here. If something goes wrong or something is lost during the construction of the royal tomb, don’t blame me for not making it easier for you."
After Shishuang finished speaking, she looked at the eunuch next to her. It seemed that what she just said was meant for the eunuch to listen to. However, Jiang You could only deal with it: "Senior, don't worry, we all know what the Zhongwu King's Tomb means. Everything is to protect the people of Tianmen. If there are criminals in this situation, we will definitely not Be gentle."
Having said that, Jiang You is still very interested in the inner palace where valuables are stored. After all, King Zhongwu is dead. Rather than letting these treasures lie in the ground, it is better to let them benefit the world. I think King Zhongwu Quanxia will know how. Feel relieved.
Unfortunately, the inner palace was protected by a powerful barrier, and even the guards were at the Nascent Soul level. This made Jiang You, who was only practicing Qi, immediately give up on this idea. After all, he was still not strong enough.
Seeing Lin Yan's promise, Shishuang also nodded slightly, and she continued: "In that case, let me tell you about the main person in charge here. This father-in-law is the supervisor and eunuch Liu Eunuch sent by the imperial court. He is responsible for supervising the royal tomb. All the illegal things involved; Mr. Song is the director of the cemetery sent by the Ministry of Industry and is responsible for the dispatch and management of all workers; as for General Lin, you have already met him, so I won’t introduce him more."
"I've met Eunuch Liu and Mr. Song." Jiang You bowed slightly to the two of them again.
Eunuch Liu said with a smile on his face: "My family has also heard about little friend Lin Yan. I never expected that there is such an outstanding person in Tianmen County. He must be able to command an entire county with his Qi training." King Zhongwu might not have been able to do this back then."
"My father-in-law is ridiculous. How can I dare to compare with the prince? I'm just taking Fairy Fengyao to deliver a message." Jiang You shook his head again. It's better to keep a low profile at this time to avoid falling too badly in the future, and he seemed to also He could hear the provocation in it. After all, both Shi Shuang and Lin Wei were extremely loyal to King Zhongwu, and naturally they didn't want to see anyone comparing them to a little Qi-training girl. Fortunately, there was nothing strange on the faces of the two of them. They seemed to be used to this kind of provocation, which made Jiang You breathe a sigh of relief.
Master Song also bowed his hands and said: "I am just a craftsman, so I won't say anything more. As long as it does not affect the progress of the royal tomb, I will try my best to help. In addition, I heard that Yun Manluo, who invented the Manluo Valve, is also here Among you, if you have time someday, I hope you can ask for advice."
Yun Manluo immediately blushed when she heard this, but she also said politely: "Actually, the Manluo clan only relies on sister Lin Yan's guidance and a little bit of luck."
"Really?" Mr. Song asked curiously, "Then I will look for opportunities to ask for advice from now on."
Seeing that the topic was moved away by Mr. Song, Shishuang could only helplessly stop it and said: "Okay, we will talk about this later. In short, the construction of the royal tomb must continue. As for the guarding of the tomb, I will leave it to Lin Yan and Lin Yan." General, no more troubles can occur during this period, otherwise we will not be able to deal with the court and the princess."
Jiang You quickly agreed to wait for the meeting hall immediately, and she was taken to a courtyard near the outer court by Lin Wei.
"Most of the buildings in the cemetery have not been completed, and this place has been temporarily cleaned up. We asked the special envoy to stay here for a while." Lin Wei explained, "In addition, although Tianmen County has almost fallen, we will send out a signal to remind the remaining people. The survivors below are coming."
Jiang You nodded. He also remembered the hundreds of people he brought here. Although he knew that they must have received good accommodation, it would be chilling if they didn't check.
"How are the people who came with me?" Jiang You asked again.
"Don't worry, Special Envoy. I have already screened the people outside. Those with certain combat capabilities have been temporarily integrated into the Wei Ling Army. As for the others, they have also been placed in the outer court as logistical support." Lin Wei replied, "But I still want to remind you that although our enemies are monsters now, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the outer courtyard is full of fish and dragons, so please don't run around to avoid being coerced and exploited by someone with intentions. We will also send a personal guard. The team will protect you closely, if you need anything you can just ask them."
Hearing this, Jiang You suddenly felt a little disappointed. The team she had managed to pull out was actually swallowed up by Lin Wei. Even though she is still the nominal leader, she seems to have been sidelined by Lin Wei. It can even be said that she was taken over by Lin Wei. Monitored.
But this was not Lin Wei's malice. After all, Jiang You was always just a Qi-training monk, and he didn't have much role other than taking the blame. Protecting him was the greatest goodwill.
Jiang Youye understood this instantly. Before, everyone had to listen to her only because of the life and death barrier. Now that Lin Wei is here, he is the most suitable commander. Not to mention that he is not a person obsessed with power, that is, Fairy Zixiao's memory has more or less affected her.
Since she didn't have to charge into battle herself, she was happy to take her time and take a leisurely stroll. Maybe she could pick up a brick and a half in the middle courtyard. Didn't Lin Wei say that the bricks and tiles here were all the best materials for refining weapons.
After allocating the room, she meditated in the room to recuperate. After all, there were too many battles before. Even if she did not play a big role, the consumption was huge. Except for the blood demon girl, the charge in her body The treasure seems to be exhausted, and now it’s time to replenish it.
Of course, she did not forget to use Lin Suqing's name to summon the people from Xiaoyao Valley. Although the people there may not be safe and reliable, they are at least a fighting force. And if something happens to Wang Ling, Jiang You can also use this combat power to increase his chances of escape.
After adjusting his breath, Jiang You began to digest everything he had learned from Princess Zixiao. After all, everything that had happened before was so much that he didn't have time to sort it out now.
Obviously, apart from the clone Lin Suqing, the biggest gain is naturally Princess Zixiao. However, because of her imprisoned and sealed state, she cannot help at all. However, there are three huge treasures that cannot be ignored. The first is Princess Zixiao. With his cultivation experience, Jiang You's cultivation path will basically not have any big bottlenecks.
The second is the righteous Taoist technique "Ten Thousand Dao Sacred Heart Technique" practiced by Princess Zixiao. This is very similar to Yun Manluo's Red Dust Dao, but it is the ultimate enhanced version of the heaven-level technique. It is not only practiced by people in the world. Positive thoughts can even be digested and absorbed by negative thoughts. This is why Princess Zixiao has always been domineering and cold.
And while her reputation continues to increase due to taking the blame, an inexplicable force will inadvertently integrate into Lin Yan's body. However, this is not of much use to the spiritual space where she is practicing the Five Elements Kung Fu, but maybe in the future Can be used. Moreover, the skills can also be taught to Yun Manluo. Even though Yun Manluo may not accept too much negative thoughts, it is at least an option.
The third one is the unspeakable "Heart Demon Technique". Although this kind of evil technique is not tolerated by the world, it depends on who uses it. After all, "The Sacred Heart Technique of Ten Thousand Daos" is said to be the most upright and upright method in the royal family. It is a bright technique, but the number of people who died under this technique far exceeds that of the demons.
The most important thing is that this "Inner Demon Technique" is really easy to use. Lin Hua, who was once arrogant, seems to have completely changed after being planted with inner demons. Now his credibility is even more than that of Lin Xu and others in the space. , if there was a chance, he would even want to try Lin Kuang and Lin Fei.
