Slowly move towards the fish pond. At this time, the night wind blows, the branches and leaves are rubbing, making a rustling sound in the quiet house, making it even more weird.

As you get closer, you can clearly feel the purple aura coming out of the fish pond getting stronger and stronger.

So he quietly took off the demon-slaying knife wrapped in rags on his back and held it in his hand. His body and consciousness had entered a fighting state and were ready to take action at any time!

Not long after, there were only about two feet away from the fish pond. At this time, the purple aura still showed no intention of converging, and kept emerging from the water, more and more.

It was as if it was deliberately emitted for Niu Yuanping to see... deliberately attracting him to come over. This made Niu Yuanping immediately have to be cautious.

He stopped and looked intently, wanting to take a closer look. At least he could clearly see the appearance of the person coming after he got close and before taking action.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly came into my ears. It was the voice of a slightly magnetic middle-aged man!

"Master, please come closer, I have something important to tell you." As soon as these words came out, Niu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes quietly condensed.

"Sure enough, you attracted me here on purpose..." The man's voice just now came from under the waves of the fish pond.

Out of caution, Niu Yuanping did not move. He asked calmly in a cold voice:

"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be a ghost here?" A few bubbles popped up on the surface of the waves, and someone spoke again in the pond and fish pond.

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Niu. I'm here under the orders of Her Highness the Dragon Lady to explain something to you." It turns out to be a monster!

Knowing that it was a monster, Niu Yuanping lowered his guard. He relaxed and continued walking towards the pond and fish pond.

What he was wary of now was no longer monsters, but monster-slayers... Since the other party was a monster sent by the Dragon Girl and said he had something to explain, he had to listen patiently.

He put the demon-slaying knife back on his back, walked slowly to the edge of the fish pond, stood on the top of the bluestone on the bank, looked down, and asked in a deep voice:

"What do you have to say? Speak quickly! I also want to get some more sleep before dawn." As soon as he finished speaking, Niu Yuanping saw a large number of bubbles starting to emerge from under the wave surface of the pool below.

!

Not long after, a red light appeared under the water. With the moonlight and the light of candles shining from the pavilion, I could vaguely see what was exposed under the pool.

It was a carp that was slightly red in color and more than a foot long. Its fins swung slowly and made steady waves.

Under the moonlight, you can clearly see the eyes of the fish. They reveal a clarity and wisdom that does not belong to fish.

"Sir, please be patient. There are many tasks assigned by Your Highness the Dragon Girl. Please allow me to explain them slowly." The red carp floated on the water surface, speaking human words. Although it was underwater, the sound of the words was still there.

But he conveyed it to the water without missing a word.

Niu Yuanping heard it clearly. He looked at the carp quietly and looked at it.

"You tell me, I'm listening." The carp spirit gently swung its tail so that its mouth was completely exposed from the water.

It was only then that I saw clearly that there was actually a goat's beard on its chin, which actually made the fish look like a somewhat knowledgeable teacher... The carp's mouth slowly opened and closed, and a magnetic sound came from its throat.

The voice of a middle-aged man.

"I already know that the young master persuaded the criminal court officials to enter the palace. It is a big achievement to accuse Qi Fei of rebelling first! There is a high chance that you will be summoned to the Yan Palace." Niu Yuanping said nothing and watched quietly.

Listen to it and listen to the carp continue talking.

"Her Royal Highness the Dragon Girl has an order. Before you enter the Yan Palace, let me hand over the task to be completed to the young master." After saying that, the carp spirit puffed its gills, then opened its mouth and spit out a message to Niu Yuanping on the shore.

A two-foot cotton parcel.

The package quickly approached, and Niu Yuanping had no choice but to raise his hand and pinch it. It was dry in his hands. Although it was spat out from the mouth of a fish in the water, there was no sign of being wet by the water.

He held the package and looked it over, then asked:

"What is this?"

"There are twelve boundary-breaking nails in the cotton parcel. Her Highness the Dragon Lady asked me to give them to you, Young Master."

"Boundary-breaking nail?" Niu Yuanping immediately frowned, a little confused. Then he shook the package in his hand and rolled it out in his palm.

Inside the rectangular cotton felt, there are twelve three-edged nails with a purple metallic luster, neatly inserted into the fabric locks.

After looking at it carefully, he found that he had never heard of this kind of thing and had never used it. I wonder why the dragon girl sent this thing?

"What is the use of this thing?" Niu Yuanping asked without understanding. He had a vague feeling that this kind of thing must not be simple!

I am afraid that the task Long Yu has assigned to himself this time will be quite difficult!

"Boundary-breaking nails, as the name suggests, are naturally nails used to break barriers." Carp Spirit explained patiently.

"His Royal Highness Longnu wants the young master to find an opportunity to drive these twelve boundary-breaking nails into the eyes of the palace's demon-killing barrier formation!" Niu Yuanping frowned.

He felt that what the carp spirit said was not straightforward and was confusing. After listening to it for a long time, he was still confused.

So he asked angrily:

"You are able to lurk in even the Criminal Court. Why don't you enter the palace to install the boundary-breaking nails instead of letting me, a layman who knows nothing about it, do it?" The carp spirit laughed and responded patiently:

"The name of the barrier is called the Demon-Destroying Barrier. Anyone who is not a human being will be killed after entering. Although Yan Beichen has been in seclusion all year round and does not know whether he is alive or dead, he has left many treasures for his descendants.

The demon-destroying barrier covering the palace city of King Yan is one of them!" Then he continued:

"It's not that I'm lazy, it's that I can't enter the Yan Palace at all..." After hearing this, Niu Yuanping's eyes flashed lightly.

The entire palace of King Yan was actually surrounded by such a barrier formation! Moreover, this formation was left behind by the first generation of King Yan, Yan Beichen.

This was the first time he had heard about this matter. He had never heard such information after staying in the Demon Suppression Department for so long, but he did not expect that he would now get such a secret from the goblin's mouth.

No wonder the descendants of the royal family in the Yan Palace can still sit back and relax even if they do not practice soul cultivation and are not proficient in the art of slaying monsters. They have never heard of any demons and ghosts sneaking into the Yan Palace to cause trouble.

"So that's what happened..." Niu Yuanping understood. He really gained a lot of knowledge. Looking at the boundary-breaking nail in his hand, he thought to himself:

"Dragon Girl Yu Yixue wants to use my hand to break the demon-destroying barrier surrounding the Yan Palace..." It's not easy!

There is a certain degree of danger. If the first generation of King Yan is no longer alive, this matter will not be too difficult.

But it's not yet certain whether Yan Beichen is still there... If what he did was revealed and he offended the legendary Yan Beichen, wouldn't he be in trouble?

To be honest, Niu Yuanping was really unwilling to wade into this muddy water, so he excused himself:

"I don't know where the formation's eye is, how can I insert it?" Who knows, as soon as he said this, the carp spirit in the water spit out a roll of something from his mouth.

Niu Yuanping had no choice but to reluctantly take it in his hand and pinch the roll. When he looked carefully, he saw that it was actually a piece of sheepskin.

"That's the map above. It's the map of Prince Yan's Palace." The carp spirit smiled slightly. Really. There was a smile on the face of a fish!

It laughed and said slowly:

"Her Royal Highness Dragon Girl is also proficient in the art of enchantment! So through the topography of the Yan Palace, we can infer the location of the twelve formation eyes. There are black dog skeletons buried in the formation eyes. As long as Mr. Niu inserts the boundary-breaking nails into those bones, it will be fine.

!Everything is ready for you, it’s very simple, Master can definitely do it.” Looking at the smiling fish, my heart suddenly felt a little angry.

"It's so simple! You can stand and talk without pain in your back! What if Yan Beichen catches me doing what I'm doing? Will I still be alive?!" Niu Yuanping didn't show politeness to him and directly expressed his concerns.

The carp spirit was not angry even after being scolded. It said calmly:

"If it were easy to do, Your Highness Longnu wouldn't need Mr. Niu." There was a mystery in these words. Niu Yuanping could hear the warning in them.

Indeed, there is Yuyi Xuexia's poison in his body... He has to rely on her antidote to save his life! It has to be done. If there is no use value, I'm afraid he will die from the poison!

Losing freedom is the price of surviving from the hands of the demon... Niu Yuanping's eyes flashed coldly, but he quickly suppressed it.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice:

"This matter needs long-term consideration! I must ensure my own safety before doing anything! Your Highness the Dragon Girl will definitely not want me to die before I complete the task!"

"Of course." Carp Spirit smiled:
Chapter completed!
