Yan Lan's expression immediately relaxed.
"It turns out to be senior."
Jing Yingrong nodded to her, then looked around.
Yan Lan: "Senior, did you come here to see me to inquire about the progress of the matter?"
Jing Yingrong said "hmm", but brought up an irrelevant topic: "This is not Yinshan's territory, what are you doing?"
Yan Lan smiled and said: "Collect some field data for preparation."
Jing Yingrong repeated the word "preparation", nodded slightly, and asked with a hint of confusion: "Do you need to do this kind of thing?"
Hearing this, Yan Lan's smile was filled with a little helplessness.
"It was not my mission originally, but because the opportunity may be advanced, the king ordered to speed up the deployment. Therefore, the ministries are now in urgent need of manpower, so I came to help when I could."
The word "timing" was accented by her bite.
Immediately, she changed the subject and brought it back: "My colleague is on guard duty in Tianyuanzhong recently. He doesn't know about that matter yet. He only knows that it is a newly developed project. If seniors see him, please don't do it." Tell him the truth, and the king will look for opportunities to inform him in the future."
Jing Yingrong agreed.
When the two arrived at Tianyuan, they did not enter the building complex and went directly to the metal forest.
The place designated as the carrier research base by Yinshan is now mostly completed. Judging from the initial outline, it should be a spherical building when it is completely completed.
In the part that has been completed, someone is installing and debugging some equipment.
Yan Lan introduced the overall structure of the building and the layout of the house to Jing Yingrong. Just from the materials consumed, it can be seen that Yinshan attaches great importance to this place.
Jing Yingrong listened and asked, "Do you have enough resources?"
Yan Lan: "It's enough for now, but in the future, many rare spiritual materials will be used for research and implementation, which may cause some difficulties."
According to Yan Lan, Yinshan organized a special research team. Although the base has not yet been built, the team has proposed a variety of ideas, and each idea requires a large amount of natural resources and treasures to be invested in practice.
Every project in Tianyuan requires huge resources. The trade of the demon clan is not as developed as that of the human race, and the existence of Tianyuan should not be exposed. Therefore, even if Yinshan is the beast emperor, it is still difficult to obtain some extremely special and rare materials.
After listening, Jing Yingrong said: "I can help if necessary."
Yan Lan didn't refuse, smiled, and accepted the words.
The two of them strolled in the darkness, occasionally talking to each other.
Then they met Master Zhao, who was in charge of the formation.
There are a large number of formations arranged outside the building complex, and Zhao Wencong is busy in these formations.
Seeing the two approaching, Zhao Wencong stopped what he was doing and saluted, "I've met Senior Yan and Senior Jing."
Yan Lan: "Master Zhao, is there something wrong with the formation?"
Zhao Wencong: "Oh, no, it was me last time..."
She paused suddenly and subconsciously glanced at where her glasses reflected her face.
"——I made a breakthrough in the formation, and I have a few new ideas that may improve the power of the formation, so let's give it a try."
Yan Lan: "I see, thank you for your work."
In order not to disturb Zhao Wencong's work, Yan Lan put on a mirror and walked in a different direction.
After walking a certain distance, Jing Yingrong suddenly turned back and stared at Zhao Wencong's already diminutive figure.
Yan Lan asked doubtfully: "Senior?"
Jing Yingrong turned to look at her when she heard the sound, and asked before she spoke:
"Did you tell her my name?"
Yan Lan was stunned for a moment, then said after thinking for a moment: "Maybe the king mentioned it."
Jing Yingrong nodded, then looked back, a hint of thoughtfulness flashing in her eyes.
…
Jing Yingrong originally planned to go back to the mountain gate, but when he changed his mind, he went to Helianzhou instead.
In the secluded small courtyard, just as Jing Yingrong broke through the space and walked out, someone came in carrying a sweeping tool, and he happened to meet her eyes.
Bang!
The tool in the man's hand fell to the ground and he backed away in horror. However, when he saw the other person's face clearly, he quickly regained his composure.
"Are you... are you here to see the head of the family?"
After receiving Jing Yingrong's affirmative reply, the person immediately revealed his identity. He was a laborer in the mansion, responsible for maintaining the yard, pruning plants, maintaining bricks and tiles, and regularly inspecting the operation of the formations in the yard.
He told Jing Yingrong that after the Qin family's new house was completed, most of the people in the old house moved there, leaving only a few stewards and servants, including him.
When moving, Qin Xinyao specially showed him Jing Yingrong's picture and image, asking him to remember Jing Yingrong's appearance, and told him to notify her immediately once Jing Yingrong returned to his old house.
After talking about the cause and effect, the man hurriedly invited Jing Yingrong into the room, and then ran out to contact the person using the secret method given by Qin Xinyao.
After a cup of tea, Qin Xinyao rushed into the room like a flying swallow.
"elder sister!"
The mirror standing by the window turned around.
Qin Xinyao stopped in front of the table, looked at the steaming teacup on the table, picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.
Jing Yingrong looked at the way she was gulping down the food, and the corners of her lips curved slightly, and she said, "Let me take a look at you. Are you busy?"
While she was talking, Qin Xinyao poured herself another cup of tea.
"Yes, there have been a lot of things lately."
Qin Xinyao finished drinking tea, wiped her mouth, and looked into the mirror with a smile.
"They are just trivial troubles that can be solved with a little more effort."
Jing Yingrong: "I'm not worried about you."
Qin Xinyao quit now, "You are worried about me, it's quite tiring."
She put her head on Jing Yingrong's shoulder and talked about her recent busyness.
The door was open, and the waiter walked in with fruit snacks. When he saw the coquettish behavior of his master, he was so frightened that he left.
Jing Yingrong straightened the hairpin that had fallen off Qin Xinyao's head and said, "Congratulations."
Although there were only two words, Qin Xinyao understood and laughed "hehe" twice, and said: "It's a bit risky, but luckily I'm lucky."
She talked about the annexation of Chang Yuzhou. The young worker had mentioned the merger of Helian Prefecture and Chang Yu Prefecture to Jing Yingrong just now, and now she was telling the detailed process.
"...I fully deployed my defenses in Helian Prefecture to prevent those gangsters from Chang Yu Prefecture from jumping over the wall...The nails I planted earlier worked, so I was able to kill them without any loss...Chang Yu fell into my trap."
Qin Xinyao tilted her head, smiling with her cheeks filled with high spirits.
"Fortunately, the decision was made early. Otherwise, when people find out that this beast wave is only targeting the three major factions, people's hearts will not be so easy to coerce."
After saying that, she put her arm on the mirror and asked, "Would you like to come with me to see the new house?"
Jing Yingrong shook his head: "I have other things to do."
Qin Xinyao said "Oh", rolled her eyes, and seemed to accidentally mention the last time Lan Chucui went to Qin's house to pick up the Su family brothers and sisters.
Then she stared at the reflection in the mirror expectantly, with a secret excitement in her expression.
Jing Yingrong expressed satisfaction with the Qin family's action of saving Su Tian: "It's good that she is alive."
Qin Xinyao: "What else?"
Jing Yingrong: "What?"
Qin Xinyao: "..."
Jing Yingrong: "?"
Qin Xinyao: "That..."
She blinked.
The mirror reflected a look of surprise.
"Do you also want Baique Ling?"
"how come!"
After Qin Xinyao finished her retort, she was suddenly reminded of something.
"Oh, by the way, I have a lot of clothes and jewelry that I forgot to give you."
She plucked out the cassocks, robes, and accessories she had collected in the storage utensils. This hobby of dressing up in the mirror has not changed for many years.
Indulging in the wonderful imagination of the other party wearing these clothes, Qin Xinyao completely forgot about the topic she originally wanted to use to make fun of the mirror.
