There were still five days left before the marriage between the Yu family and the Meng Hu clan, and the capital was still in a state of singing and dancing. A steady stream of monks from all over the world came to the Royal Hunting Ground in search of opportunities. One or two were gained, while four or five were lost.
However, the black market that lacks supervision and order is bustling with people in the wide-open Royal Hunting Ground. Countless resources for cultivating immortals are circulating in it every day, but the Yu family still has no signs of getting involved, which makes those who have bulged their pockets even more revelry. .
The short-term economic prosperity has brought unprecedented prosperity to Yuguo. Everyone feels that this is the moment when Yuguo is about to usher in its strongest moment.
At the royal hunting ground in the capital, Meng Ya, the secret agent of the Meng Hu Sect, was counting today's performance.
"One, two, three, four, five...huh? No. 14, why are you still one short of your head count today!?"
No. 14 trembled and knelt on the ground and answered,
"Back to... Sir, too many monks have gone missing in the area I am responsible for..."
But before he could finish his explanation, Meng Ya waved his hand and easily took away the head of No. 14.
"It's okay, that's it."
Inside the palace, Meng Xianglong, the son of the leader of the Meng Hu Sect, was enjoying the famous song "Linjiang Fairy" that had emerged in Yu Kingdom in recent years.
"I really don't know what's so good about these mumbling words, and they are called fairy music. The music of your country is as soft as your bones!"
Meng Xianglong's voice was so loud that even the fish around the lake pavilion were startled. Even though they were so humiliated by him, the musicians only dared to be angry and dare not speak out. After all, this was the son of the Demon Sect and the future master of the Demon Sect.
As an elder and an elder of the Meng Hu Sect, Meng Lingyue is more cautious when speaking in front of outsiders.
"If it sounds unpleasant, don't listen to it. You all can go down!"
After retreating from others, the uncle and nephew started discussing again.
"Xiaolong, the wedding time is coming soon, why do you still have time to amuse yourself here?"
Meng Xianglong strolled to the railing and fed a handful of fish feed.
"The hunting ground has begun to finish. The so-called young talents in the capital are just losers. No wonder it is necessary to rely on a woman to save the country."
Meng Lingyue needs to be more experienced and reminded,
"How many times have I told you, beware that walls have ears! And don't underestimate the enemy! The elites of the Yu Kingdom are not in the capital."
His ears were about to get calluses hearing such words. Meng Xianglong said disdainfully,
"We are now in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. There are no walls. Besides, are there any other prominent figures in Yu Kingdom?"
Meng Lingyue knew some gossip, and he warned,
"The people from Taili Gate are coming to the capital."
Meng Xianglong was also a little surprised.
"Hasn't Mrs. Fire Bone made a move yet? Why is Tailimen still jumping around?"
Meng Lingyue was not very clear either. The information his spies came back was limited.
"The sect master on Mrs. Firebone's side will take care of things. The important thing is that we can't make any mistakes here!"
Only then did Meng Xianglong cheer up a little.
"Okay, okay, I have to relax my muscles and bones before the end. I'm almost sick here."
Meng Xianglong instantly changed from a lazy posture to an energetic one. His movements were strong but gentle, and he was walking in the gorgeous royal water lake with only a few ripples. When he reached the shore, the lake Bodies floated up one after another, some of fish and some of people.
And he just left one sentence,
"An overestimating ant!"
Meng Hu, the leader of the Meng Hu Sect, is negotiating with Madam Huo Gu. Looking at the situation, Madam Huo Gu is very unhappy.
Meng Hu carefully disclosed his progress:
"My son has already started finishing the work on the Yu family side, and I'll leave everything to you at the Tailimen side, Madam Huo Gu."
The gorgeous and demonic woman known as Mrs. Firebone smiled and threatened,
"Meng Hu, you have to take good care of Yu Tong from the Yu family, otherwise..."
Meng Hu felt that the air around him was gradually getting hotter, but his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"Senior, don't worry! You want people, our Meng Hu Sect wants land, everything is under plan."
Is everything according to plan? hehe. Mrs. Firebone opened her red lips slightly and revealed a piece of news that Meng Hu didn't expect.
"Then Tailimen's request for help from outside is also part of your plan?"
ah? How can this be? I have blocked the Yuguo border, how did you find out? ! Meng Hu felt that he had done everything perfectly.
"This, this, this..."
Seeing Meng Hu hesitating, Madam Huo Gu stopped beating him and sneered,
"Junior! Put away your petty thoughts! I will handle the Tailimen properly. Don't you kid get yourself into trouble!"
After saying this, Mrs. Huo Gu threw the belongings of Yu Jianzi and others in front of Meng Hu and flew away. Only the residual power of heat was left to suppress Meng Hu:
Obviously, Meng Hu's plan failed. He must have known about Yu Jianzi and the others' fleeing for help, but this was originally part of his plan. He and the Tailimen have been old rivals for hundreds of years, too. He knew the Li Sect's heel and heel clearly. If the previous head of the Tai Li Sect was still there, he would definitely not take such stupid measures as sending people to ask for help from outside the country.
But the old immortal was already dead, so Meng Hu had the confidence to control the entire Yu Kingdom.
I just didn't expect Mrs. Firebone to be so smart. It seems that she has seen through my plan, but she just wants to get what she needs and not be embarrassed.
My Taoism has not yet reached its peak! If I had already entered the Nascent Soul Realm, why would I need to look at the faces of these old ladies? Oh~ bad luck!
Xie Yuanqian and Tailimen also acted quickly. After entrusting Li Qingdai to their orders, Xie Yuanqian laid out his action plan. With the help of Jindan Zhenren, they arrived at the capital of Yu Kingdom on the same day with great military skills.
Returning to this capital city full of open guns and hidden arrows, Xie Yuanqian no longer had the shock and yearning he felt at the beginning. Time waits for no time!
The method of entering the city was also designed. They could easily enter the capital openly and openly. However, in fact, the defense of the capital was now very lax, as if they were deliberately trying to overcrowd the capital. This was too abnormal.
According to the plan, Yingxue took most of the people to the Royal Hunting Ground to camp on the same day. Of course, they entered in small groups, otherwise it would be too ostentatious. After all, there must be people from the Yu family or even the Meng Hu Sect at the entrance of the hunting ground.
Xie Yuanqian got in touch with Hanmei and learned the information about the capital from her:
The first is the most important Princess Yutong. She is worthy of being a heroine and a hero among women. As soon as she returned to the capital, she thoroughly investigated the reasons for the marriage. However, it was obvious that someone in the Yu family was secretly obstructing her. The forces of Pui were basically isolated. The information she obtained was limited but crucial.
There are traitors in the family who are helping the Meng Hu Sect, and there must be some shady dealings between them.
Princess Yutong knew very well what kind of methods the Meng Hu Sect had. No matter what the bargaining chip was, it was definitely a trap, and the Yu family would definitely suffer.
It’s all about family!
This belief that has supported her on the immortal path for more than a hundred years has once again ignited a glimmer of hope for her - Ancestor!
As long as you can meet the ancestor and explain the situation to him, you will definitely get his support, and everything will be fine by then.
Princess Yutong, who was in jail and had nothing to do, naively thought so, but the reality was completely beyond her expectation.
Because the family power of Princess Yutong basically has no say in the Yu family, and it is even more difficult for her as a marriage partner to meet her ancestors, so she can only use one stupid move - To force each other to death.
In view of Yu Tong's importance to the Meng Hu Sect, Yu Yuansheng, who was the head of the Yu family at the time, had to agree to her request and went to the ancestral land to invite Taoist Yu Jia, the ancestor of the Yu family.
Taoist Yu Jia obviously has his own considerations.
Taoist Yu Jia, who is about to die, already shows the signs of the five declines of heaven and man. His hair is sparse, his face is old, and he is as thin as a stick. It seemed like a crumbling dead leaf floating in the air, but his voice was still so majestic.
"Yu Tong! Don't mess around!"
Princess Yutong had already made a desperate move. She tried her best to send a warning to the old man who held up the entire sky of Yu Kingdom and to the Yu family members:
"Ancestor, the marriage is indeed strange! There is a traitor in the family!"
The whole place was in an uproar as soon as this statement came out, some were shocked and some were suspicious, but the final decision still depends on the ancestor of the Yu family.
Taoist Yu Jia was silent for a while, wondering what he was thinking about. Finally, he uttered an order that finalized the overall situation:
"...Everything is about the family! Be obedient!"
The ancestor's considerations were not something Yu Tong could understand, but when her last hope was shattered, she finally bowed her head to fate.
"Yes! Yu Tong understands!"
This small episode did not affect the overall situation of the Meng Hu clan. Princess Yutong lost more freedom because of this stupid move. However, the Yu family's lost clan members regarded this warning as a life-saving straw and have been looking for Meng Huzong. There are clues about the Hu Zong and the traitors of the Yu family, but the result is obviously useless. The enemy is hidden and we are clear.
The only thing Princess Yutong was lucky about was that she left her personal maid outside the Yu family, Hanmei in the capital, and Yingxue in Taili Gate. This was the last escape route she left for herself.
But in fact, this road was also targeted by Yu Yuansheng. After the death-threatening accident, he became even more aggressive in cutting off the forces of Yu Tong's lineage. Han Mei, who was once Yu Tong's personal maid, was also under his surveillance. , and the person monitoring Hanmei is her father Hanli.
Hanmei tried to contact some people with lofty ideals to go to Taili City, but it was obvious that these people must also have no news at all.
She herself was even confined to her home, unable to move even an inch.
Until Xie Yuanqian contacted her.
Xie Yuanqian was worthy of being Xie Yuanqian. He was cautious and did not ask Yingxue to contact Hanmei directly. Instead, he took Yingxue's token to visit Lou Fang, and then took out some snacks as a guide. He met Hanmei smoothly. Then the two sides hit it off immediately.
Princess Yutong and Xie Yuanqian must work together to expose the Meng Hu Sect's conspiracy and complete the mission of saving the princess.
The second key piece of information is the arrangement of the marriage between Princess Yutong and Meng Xianglong. According to the marriage customs of the Yu Kingdom, the princess's wedding must be carried out according to the six rites of receiving gifts, accepting levies, personally welcoming, offering sacrifices to heaven, following proper etiquette, and riding in public.
The first three transactions between Menghu Sect and Yu Family have been completed, and Xie Yuanqian’s opportunity lies in the latter two.
Sacrifice to heaven, because Yutong's identity is the princess of Yu Kingdom and the most outstanding member of the Yu family, so when she gets married, she must go to the Yu family's ancestral land to perform the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and declare the way of heaven.
At this step, Xie Yuanqian definitely has no chance. He is not even qualified to enter the Yu family.
The focus is on Zhengyi and Chengyu.
The formal ceremony is the most important part of the wedding, which is equivalent to the oath-taking and feasting sessions in the previous life.
Because it was a princess getting married and a demon sect getting married, the ceremony was designed as an oversized flowing mat. Anyone who purchased the qualifications could sit on the mat, and of course be an outside mat, to celebrate together.
The carriage ride is the last part of the princess' wedding. The princess and her consort drive from the palace and parade all the way to the city gate. Along the way, the princess's wedding car will distribute countless gifts to the people to show their grace and celebrate the whole country.
In both cases, Xie Yuanqian had the opportunity to devise tricks such as cheating or stealing a bride, but these two strategies were too common and low-end, and he disdained them.
With this information, Xie Yuanqian conceived a more ingenious plan.
The situation at Yingxue was not optimistic. After investigation, they found that there was a big problem in Ziwu Valley. A large number of monks who came to look for opportunities were missing here.
Under this situation, the monks on the Taili Gate side naturally started to get angry.
"What's going on with your Yu family?! Could it be that they have set up an ambush in this valley to harm us?!"
Xie Yuanqian had already explained this situation and could simply explain it as the Meng Hu Sect's fault.
As my husband told me, Yingxue can certainly handle it with ease.
"Everyone, please be patient! If my Yu family wanted to harm you, why would we do it in this hunting ground as early as the gate of the city? Isn't the formation in the capital more useful than ambushing people here? This situation is not what my Yu family did. Information, I will give you an explanation after I take someone to investigate."
The people in Tailimen stopped making an uproar after hearing her explanation. After all, Yingxue was right. She would have taken action long ago. It looked like she was indeed unprepared, so she sent a representative to go with them to check the valley. Condition.
The Demon Sect spies in Ziwu Valley were a little ecstatic when they saw a bunch of people outside the valley. Today's performance is good!
Yingxue and the other three people cautiously moved towards the valley, where the demon sect villains had already laid a trap.
Ziwu Valley is a typical secret canyon. The entrance is steep, with steep peaks reaching into the sky. The canyon is long and dark, with cliffs of hundreds of feet on both sides. It is difficult for non-monks to cross this natural danger.
Yingxue and the others crossed the valley entrance passage without any danger, and the situation in the valley gradually became clear. This place is simply a natural cornucopia!
There are rare and rare herbs of the best vintage everywhere, exuding an alluring light in the dim valley, quietly waiting for the people who are destined to pick them.
The most astonishing thing is the Ziwu Ore, a specialty of this place. Even in the deepest part of the valley, the mine exudes a shining purple light. This kind of ore is a high-quality material for making talismans and arranging formations. It is worth a lot of money in the market. The presence,
Judging from the purple light in the mine, it can be said that this is a priceless treasure!
If ordinary monks arrived here, they would be eager to start picking, and they would even start fighting for the ore.
Even the other two people from Tailimen and the Defense Force who followed in had their eyes reddened and their breathing became heavy.
But Yingxue is a member of the Yu family, and has been to Ziwu Valley several times. Not to mention that this place has been developed by the Yu family for four to five hundred years, even if the recent intelligence shows that many monks are missing here, it can be deduced that there must be something here. weird,
Yingxue snorted coldly and reminded:
"Two Jindan seniors, don't lose sight of yourself, we are not here for these extraneous things!"
Being reminded by Yingxue, the two Jindan masters who were enlightened by the sight of treasures also regained their senses. They also knew that there must be monsters when things go wrong.
Jindan Zhenren of Taili Gate asked:
"There are so many treasures here, why don't you see people from your Yu family stationed here?"
Yingxue did not answer his question, but gave a firm order:
"Go back!!!"
After saying that she really showed no regrets, she took the lead to exit. Although the Jindan master of the Defense Force did not want to part with these treasures in front of him, he still had high military literacy after adapting to Princess Yutong's military orders. Then they retreated out of the valley.
The Jindan Master from Tailimen hesitated. After all, he was only the second guest in Tailimen, and his daily training expenses were lower than others. There were so many ownerless treasures here, how could he not be tempted?
Both Yingxue and Yingxue were about to retreat to the mouth of the valley, but he was gradually occupied by greed.
Anyway, there are so many treasures here, it doesn’t take much effort for me to secretly get some. Besides, I am Jin Dan Zhenren, be cautious, be careful, I am not greedy for too much, I just picked the bone-washing flower and left, picked the bone-washing flower, and left. Bone Flower will leave.
Actions are natural after the heart is moved, and the fate of those whose hearts are eaten up by greed is certainly predictable.
He did pick the bone-washing flower as quickly as he thought. It was normal and there was no danger. Then, the cold flower seemed not far away, and the red fruit was also very close... ..Ziwu Mine is close at hand!
In the end, his life completely disappeared in Ziwu Valley, and the Menghu Sect spies finally completed one of their performance indicators today.
