Just when they were discussing the follow-up on the seventh day of the lunar month, Sima Qing, who had arranged for Gongsun Ce, returned to the depths of Liuli Palace. The warrior who was once praised as the best in the world was kneeling docilely in front of Master Xuanji.
Like a tamed dog.
"Master Qi, my subordinates have escorted Bao Zheng to the secret palace for custody. He was blindfolded during the journey and there is no possibility of memorizing the route."
The so-called secret palace mentioned by Sima Qing is actually an extremely secret natural cave.
The four walls there are high and there is only a small opening at the ceiling. Because of its unique terrain, it was chosen by Master Xuanji.
Later, he built several palaces in it and planted many beautiful and beautiful flowers around it. It was said that it was a place of cultivation and could also serve as a back garden.
It’s just that not many people know this place, so it’s called the Secret Palace.
"Sima Qing, you did a good job, cleanly. It's just that your brothers are really not good at it. I have told you many times that you must have a clear mind before every action and you must not take pills. But they are not good at it. , any duck that reaches its mouth will be let go. Tell me, should you punish them?"
Master Xuanji was leaning on the cloud couch, talking slowly while playing with the small jade bottle in his hand, which contained ten pills, all of which he had personally refined.
Originally, this was the reward that Sima Qing deserved today, but now, he didn't want to give it.
Although Master Xuanji's tone was very calm, Sima Qing still shivered when he heard it, and a few drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He lowered his body lower and begged for mercy:
"Please Master, please spare my brothers. I will definitely teach them a lesson when I go back!"
Hearing this, Master Xuanji just tossed the jade bottle a few times casually, and then snorted softly from his nose.
"That's all, I'll spare you this time. But you still have to be punished for your lax control, so let's settle it together with the matter of inviting Lord Angel. The merits and demerits will be balanced, so this time the Xiaoyao Pill will be It’s not your fault anymore…”
"However, if you dare to do it again, then I have to ask you to personally select a good brother of yours to send to the secret palace to be used as flower fertilizer for my beloved flowers."
After that, he seemed to think of something again, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth. He seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile:
"But we can't blame them entirely for what happened tonight. Who would have thought that in this deep mountain cave in the wilderness, we would actually encounter a female ghost."
"Female ghost!?"
Sima Qing suddenly raised his head.
He had rushed here as soon as he had locked them up. Naturally, he didn't know that his brothers who participated in the arrest were still crying to themselves and suffering from mental attacks.
"Well, it might be the ghost you mentioned before... In short, it seems to me that she came with the guard beside Bao Zheng."
"Speaking of which, it's a pity that you weren't here just now. Didn't you see that the ghost girl is so good at the art of water and fire? The skin and flesh of many of your brothers have been burned."
Master Xuanji leisurely recounted everything he had seen and heard tonight. Sima Qing below became more and more excited as he listened. In the end, he was so excited that he could not help but tremble all over, his eyes were red and full of tears.
"I knew it... I knew it! I knew it! The things about ghosts and gods are definitely not dreams! Thank you so much, Master, for taking me to a glimpse into the extraordinary realm!"
As he spoke, he turned his admiring gaze to Master Xuanji again, and said in full admiration:
"No wonder you asked all of us to come to guard before. It turns out that you had expected it! Master, can you now understand the future without the need for Fu Luan?"
Such a fanatical impact made Master Xuanji twitch his face, but in an instant he showed a meaningful smile and said in a quiet voice:
"That's right. However, the most important thing right now is to find a way to invite the girl of ghosts and gods over."
"Please let your subordinates handle this matter! I will prepare the three animals immediately!"
After Sima Qing finished speaking, he wanted to get up and run out, but was immediately stopped by Master Xuanji: "Stop, you stay and let Chen Jing go."
"Why!? Master, don't you believe me? I, I, I have recited all the sacrificial rituals clearly. I can't do any worse than that scholar Chen Jing!"
"No, it has nothing to do with this. It's just that Chen Jing is an official of the imperial court, and you are not.
They won't attack an important member of the court, but that's not necessarily the case if you go... If they are waiting for us to go, who knows whether it will be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?
It's better for Chen Jing to go. I feel more at ease. You can stay here until Chen Jing invites people over. It won't be too late to see you again. "
"This...yes, my subordinates will send someone to inform Chen Jing."
