Because Bai Yu is still "injured", the merits, demerits and punishments will be calculated after he recovers from his injuries.
During this period, the Escort Bureau invited doctors three times to examine his injuries, and they all came to the conclusion that "the inner lungs were seriously injured, and even if the injuries healed, the bones of the body would still be left with trouble, and he was afraid of suffering."
Bai Yu instantly received a wave of sympathy.
By the time he seemed to be barely recovering, it was already summer.
During this period, there was no peace in Xindu City, and troubles would occur from time to time.
First, during the New Year's Day, the Prime Minister of Xindu Prefecture had his red underwear stolen and hung up on the door of the government office.
In February, the commander of the patrolling city guard had his official hat stolen again and soaked in night incense.
In early March, the young master who bullied men and women was stripped clean and thrown into the dock in the city.
In April, the government warehouse was stolen, in May, the city's construction department caught fire, and in June, letters from the wealthy businessman Cen's family, who conspired to suppress his colleagues, were plastered all over the street walls.
…
For a time, letters were filled with rumors, and the common people exchanged news with each other after dinner to see which prominent family had suffered disaster.
The dignitaries in various cities are even more panic-stricken, and the number of people guarding the mansions and courtyards has increased again and again.
Bai Yu lay sick in bed every day to "recuperate" and relied on gossip to stay alive.
In the narrow courtyard in the northwest corner of the Escort Bureau, the light in the small room near the back is a little dim.
The sun was shining brightly during the June day, but little light penetrated that room.
Bai Yu was sitting on the edge of the bed, eating the food delivered by his sister, with bright eyes.
"The old man's Internal Damage Pill is really good. The effect of one pill lasts for more than three months before it wears off." He lowered his voice and smiled sullenly when he thought of the diagnoses given by the doctors, "Jiu'er, do they know that they are quack?"
Tianbao sat on the other side of the bedside table, resting his chin on his hands and saying, "Be careful, the walls have ears."
"With you here, if someone can still listen to what I'm saying, how long will his ears have to be?"
Didn't he know that Tian Bao'er was super powerful?
If others want to listen to him in the corner, they must have ears that can hear ten feet away, or they must have ears that are ten feet long.
"Someone is here." Tianbao rolled his eyes at him, "Your injury has healed, Miao Zheng should send an order soon."
Bai Yu stopped talking and concentrated on eating. After he finished the remaining half of the bowl of rice, the "someone" in Tianbao's mouth walked to the door of his room.
As expected, they were summoned to the front hall.
At noon, all the officers of the escort agency gathered in the hall.
The head of the house, Miao Zheng, sat at the head, and people were sitting on both sides below. When they saw the brother and sister walking in, everyone's eyes turned sharply.
Miao Qingyi was also there, standing behind her father, looking at the two of them with the most different eyes, full of hatred.
"Shi Yu, Jiu'er, you two should know why I called you here." Miao Zheng said with a cold voice, "It's your first time with an escort after you entered the escort agency. It was supposed to be an experience, but it didn't work out as expected. It is because of the bad things you two did that the escort agency suffered huge losses, do you know your fault?"
Shi Yu and Tian Bao bowed their heads, "Master, my brother and sister are also grudges about this matter, and we feel deeply ashamed."
"I'm very happy that you two have this intention. However, the merits and demerits cannot be completely balanced, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to other escorts. Therefore, after discussion with the managers of the escort agency, we have made the following decision. You two If a person can pass through the Nine Palaces Formation of the Escort Agency, past mistakes will be forgotten. Do you dare to break through the formation?"
The brother and sister raised their heads with firm eyes, "Dare!"
After the two of them finished speaking, Miao Qingyi raised a sarcastic smile on her face, "I really don't know how high the sky is! Since you are so brave, I wish you all the best to pass the customs and return!"
The brother and sister lowered their heads again, as if they didn't hear her words and didn't let her see any of their reactions, which made Miao Qingyi grit her teeth in anger.
Gao Chong personally led the way, taking the two of them to Jiugong Garden to the east of the Escort Bureau, and opened the gate of the garden.
He glanced at the brother and sister and said, "As soon as you step into the door, the formation will be activated. Only by clearing the level can you come out alive. If you know that you can't clear the level, you can ask for help halfway. I will be outside the door. But once you ask for help, you will I can’t stay in the escort agency any longer.”
Tianbao and Bai Yu looked at each other, thanked Gao Chong in unison, and stepped into the garden gate.
They walked in and the rear garden door closed immediately.
Bai Yu's shoulders shook slightly, and he looked sideways at Tianbao and suppressed a smile.
Even Tianbao's mouth curved a little.
Nine Palace Formation?
What a coincidence. The first magic technique their godfather taught them was the Nine Palace Formation.
The two came into contact with the formation for the first time at that time, and they were embarrassed for a full month before they broke the formation.
Memories last forever.
Now the punishment given to them by the escort agency is to let them break into the Nine Palace Formation. What is the difference between that and being exempted from punishment directly?
Separated by a door, the two of them were wandering around inside, as if they were playing.
As the name suggests, the Jiugong Formation is composed of nine small formations, shaped like a maze.
The small formations need to be revealed in order. If you make a wrong step, you will be attacked by the mechanism built into the machine formation.
Having easily solved the first level, Bai Yu stood in front of the abandoned mechanism with his arms folded, raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Jiu'er, how long should we stay in there and go out?"
Tianbao was not idle, he took out the powder box from the space and began to apply fake scars on the hands and faces of the two of them. "It usually takes an hour for people who understand the formation to clear the level. The two of us can't understand the formation, so half an hour." Get out."
Bai Yu, "???"
"Now there are only two of us left in the escort agency. If we also die, they will have no one to send to Guiyi Pavilion this year. There is information from the investigation by the godfather, which records that Guiyi Pavilion has sent poison to each of its secret strongholds. It is a compulsory mission. Each stronghold must select at least two new people to send to each stronghold every year. Therefore, the purpose of letting us break into the formation is definitely not to kill us, otherwise they will not be able to eat well. I guess if we pass the level, we can go directly to Returned to Yi Pavilion." After the little girl healed the wound, she directly pulled the iron handle on the mechanism and violently smashed it against the formation.
"..." Bai Yu silently searched for weapons on site and followed with violence.
Gao Chong, who was waiting outside the door, heard the bang-bang-bang, bang-bang-dong, and clang-dang sounds coming from inside. His brows jumped and he shouted, "Shi Yu, Jiu'er, are you two trying to break through? Why is this happening?" Noisy?"
After a while, the answer came from the door, panting, "Chief escort! We are breaking in!"
"What is the sound inside?"
"We're setting up a trap! Jiu'er, be careful! Flash! Bang—!"
"Brother, be careful! There is a hidden weapon! Dangdang——!"
Gao Chong, "..."
When someone broke into the formation of Jiugong Garden, the gate of the garden was not allowed to be opened at will. Once the door was opened, all the formations inside would stop. Otherwise, he would have to open the door and take a look.
Turn on the trap?
No one from Xinyuan Escort Agency has ever broken through like this!
How dare they!
How did you grow your brain?
What's the condition of the organs inside?
