Chapter 420 Inner City
In the early morning, when Ding Yi was still washing up, Manager Hong sent a pass. Zhu Can looked at Ding Yi and Manager Hong and felt lost.
"Senior Sister Zhu, thank you for helping you lead the way. This is your reward." Ding Yi took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Zhu Can. Ding Yi was in front of Manager Hong and drew a clear line with Zhu Can, indicating that he and Zhu Can were just hiring. Cut Zhu Can and him.
Whether this method is to cover up the bell depends on how others interpret it. However, the work on the surface still needs to be done. Zhu Can took the elixir a little absent-mindedly.
Accompanied by Manager Hong, Ding Yi left Longmen Inn.
On the street, it was the time when various stores opened. At the same time, many cultivators like Ding Yi who wanted to enter the inner city were only open to those who were promoted to the high level. As for the initial level and the intermediate level and the intermediate level are generally not open, unless it is a special situation.
Gradually, these people gathered into a team of one or two hundred people and came to the gate of the inner city.
Ding Yi's pass ranks first, but even so, he is still not the first person to enter the inner city. He still has to pay attention to the ranks when entering the inner city.
There are five advanced Xuan-level monks, who are the first to enter the inner city.
The five people, both old and young, were wearing blue clothes of inner disciples, and their hair was half white. It seemed that his qualifications were not very good. In addition, there was a young man in his twenties in his white clothes, with a heroic and handsome appearance, and this man was a core disciple. He left a deep impression on Ding Yi.
Waiting for the moment when the inner door opened, the young man found Ding Yi paying attention to him. He greeted Ding Yi with a smile.
"Is the disciple of that mountain?"
"I am Xu Hui from Rong Dingfeng, Hello Senior Brother." Ding Yi bowed halfway to the young man.
"Rong Dingfeng? Is he a disciple of Dandao? My name is Shangluo, and he is from Pili Hall." The young man introduced himself to Ding Yi.
It turned out that this person was Shangluo. Li Kui wanted to recruit him, which was really a coincidence. Ding Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"If senior brother needs elixirs, you can come to Rong Ding Peak to find me." Ding Yi greeted Shang Lu.
Shang Lu said: "My junior brother is intent, but it's a coincidence that I have a junior brother who is infected with cold poison and has not recovered after taking a lot of spiritual medicines. According to Master Tianxin, it is a problem caused by the fetus. I have been struggling for many years and have been keeping the medicine away. If Junior Brother Xu is convenient, can he help me refine a few furnaces of Shaoyang Pills?"
Ding Yi pondered for a moment and said, "If the cold poison brought by the fetus is just a way to cure the symptoms, my junior brother will understand a little bit of the magic technique. When the matter is over, my junior brother will go to Pili Hall for a walk. Shaoyang pill is just a medium and low-level elixir. Refining is not difficult. If it really doesn't work, I will refine some for my senior brother after I go back."
Shang Lu saw Ding Yi’s speech was so sincere that he couldn’t help but feel a little good. However, when he glanced at Manager Hong from Longmen Inn, his originally gentle face changed. His tone of speaking became stiff.
"Are you a member of the Royal Party?"
Ding Yi nodded. He knew from Shang Lu's expression, and it seemed that Shang Lu had a prejudice against the imperial party.
Ding Yi said: "I am not only a member of the Imperial Party, but also a member of the Imperial Party. Brother Shang, you won't have prejudice against me just because I am a member of the Imperial Party, right?" Ding Yi asked.
Shang Lue turned his head with disgust at this time and stopped paying attention to him.
Ding Yi was not worried. His main purpose now was to steal books. He was unwilling to have more troubles. He touched his nose and stopped talking. He would not deliberately explain and please anyone. The little puppet master had his own pride.
The skill was not great, and the inner city gate finally opened. The five or six meters high gate was not opened, just a corner gate next to it.
Everyone entered the inner city one by one, and the first one was the Xuan-level disciples. After all these people entered, it was Ding Yi and the others' turn.
Ding Yi entered the city gate and handed over his identity jade talisman and passes in turn. The guardians were five Xuan-level monks dressed in blue clothes. They asked Ding Yi a few small questions and asked Ding Yi to show them his spiritual wings. Then they returned his identity jade talisman and gave him a warning talisman.
"You only have six days, and come out immediately when the time comes."
The guards of the inner city ordered.
Ding Yi quickly took the jade talisman and claimed that it was.
Ding Yi had already known the pattern of the inner city last night through the compound eyes of the mosquito puppet.
Although the inner city is full of buildings, it is actually arranged according to certain rules. These buildings are mainly constructed according to the arrangement of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams and Qimen Dunjia.
When laymen arrive for the first time, they will be overwhelmed by the buildings in front of them. However, Ding Yi did his homework in advance, and he is also a formation master, so he is not panicked.
More than a dozen Xuan-level monks lined up and acted as guides. They were monks responsible for guiding the roads in the inner city. Ding Yi refused the guides of these Xuan-level monks and walked inside with his own rituals.
Ding Yi followed a stone road, and did not go straight ahead, but changed his course of travel and embarked on an auxiliary road. The Xuan-level monk behind him saw that he had not taken the wrong route, and only thought he was being guided by his family predecessors, so he turned around.
Although last night, the mosquito puppet had a "strike point" and Ding Yi also did an analysis and research in advance, he could not start to act as soon as he entered. After all, the masters here are like
Yun, there are many mechanisms and formations, and if there are few mistakes, all previous efforts will be wasted.
The Sutra Library is just a common name. In fact, there are countless library, museum and pavilion in the inner city. Ding Yi did not wander around, but went to Wuxuan Palace first.
Wuxuan Palace is a five-story building with various cultivation scriptures displayed in different categories. Each category has a room, and the entire building has large and small sizes, no less than three or four hundred different rooms. The ones displayed here are some early and middle-level scriptures.
There are only four monks in the entire Wuxuan Palace where there are management of four monks. Most of the books here can be found in the outer city, and they are not worried that someone will steal them. First of all, these books are not valuable, and the spine of these books is equipped with formations, so it is not easy to steal books. Moreover, every room is equipped with surveillance mechanisms, and if you want to steal these books, you will be recorded. No one is so unwise.
Ding Yi entered Wuxuan Palace and was just reading the book.
However, Ding Yi is a little different from those who have just come in. Generally, people who come here for the first time will ask the manager here in front of the desk at the door to the location of his qualifications and skills. Ding Yi has not gone through this procedure at all. He entered the Wuxuan Palace and went directly into the room closest to the gate.
Each room is filled with books, and the bookshelf is full of various books in this category. In addition, there are desks and chairs in the room. Ding Yi walked into this room casually, and this is where the wooden martial arts are displayed.
There was still someone in the room studying, and Ding Yi didn't bother others. He started to search for the rows of bookshelf on his own. He didn't have much effort. He found five or six books that he was interested in. He took these books to the table and began to enter the learning mode...
Nearly noon, the warning talisman suddenly trembled, and Ding Yi woke up from his focused learning mode. He saw that the few people who were reading and studying in this room were sorting out books and sorting them back one by one. After finishing, they all walked towards the gate.
It turned out that it was time for dinner. He packed the books like others and walked out of Wuxuan Palace.
There is a large restaurant in the inner city. This small white building is very eye-catching in the middle of other gray-colored buildings, halls and halls.
The restaurant is buffet-style. On the desk nearly 100 meters long, there are large pots filled with various dishes, fruits and vegetables. Almost all cultivators are big-bellied men. Their appetite is amazing, and the speed of changing the pots here is also very fast. Ding Yi took a look and found that there were five or six hundred people eating in the entire dining room.
Ding Yi deliberately delayed his time here on the way to the restaurant. It was quite late for him to arrive here. According to his dress and demeanor, there should be nearly 500 people here who came to the inner city for further study. The others were guards wearing mysterious clothes and uniforms. There were about 100 of them.
Ding Yi frowned secretly. It was obvious that it was not a good time to take action at the meal time. Because at least nearly one or two hundred Xuan-level guards were not eating here.
These people either staggered the time to eat or they were dining elsewhere. Ding Yi suspected that it should be the first type. He walked forward without saying a word, picked up a plate, absent-mindedly cooked a few dishes, walked to an uninhabited dining table, and started eating slowly.
"Let's get to know Gu Daquan, Jin Dingfeng's true disciple." A voice sounded opposite.
Ding Yi raised his head. A young monk with inch hair looked at him with a bright look.
"Xu Hui, a true disciple of Rong Ding Peak," Ding Yi replied.
"Rong Ding Peak? Who is the alchemy?" the man asked with great knowledge.
Ding Yi nodded.
"I see that my junior brother is very handsome and feels like he is right at first sight..." Gu Daquan acted very enthusiastically when he saw Ding Yi was not old and whether he had any other companions around him.
"My junior brother should not have joined any force. Here are the people from the Brotherhood. You must know that there are mixed dragons and snakes in the Tiandao Sect. If there is no force as a backing, you will inevitably suffer losses in the future..."
When Ding Yi heard this, he understood the other party’s intention.
"I am a member of the Imperial Party. Senior Brother Gu, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Ding Yi interrupted Gu Daquan and directly expressed his identity.
When he spoke, he deliberately said the four words of the Royal Party Committee very loudly. Under his spiritual perception, four or five people stood up from other dining tables, took their food, and walked towards Ding Yi's table.
Gu Daquan saw Ding Yi take out a piece of imperial party's order talisman and knew that he had found the wrong partner this time. He politely said disturbing and left in a hurry.
He didn't have much skill, so four or five people sat at Ding Yi's dining table. Ding Yi knew without asking that these people were just spiritual cultivators and did not help him much, but he was still very polite and introduced himself to these members of the imperial party.
Here, he will leave the inner city in one or two days. There is only one named Rong Cai, and he will go out for five days. He is a rare one. He has broken through his double spirit qualifications, and like Ding Yi, he is also a true disciple. He stayed in the inner city for several days longer than ordinary people.
Ding Yi took out a bottle of Three Flower Spirit Gathering Pills and each of them gave him one. This is an intermediate-level spiritual medicine. Recovering the spirit is the fastest, and the effect of the spirit Gathering Pills and Recovering the Spirit is several times stronger.
Everyone saw Ding Yi being generous and speaking kindly, but they didn't feel that they felt good. Ding Yi simply asked about his practice and said a few words to everyone, and he asked the others to first
After leaving, only Rongcai was left.
"Rong Cai, when are you going to leave the inner city?" Ding Yi asked.
"I am going to use up all this time. This opportunity is rare and I don't want to miss it." Rong Cai replied.
Ding Yi nodded and said, "This is the best. I have five days. Rong Cai, I will give you a task. I want you to find all the royal party that comes in in the next five days."
This is a small matter, Rong Cai agreed without hesitation.
After having dinner in the restaurant, Ding Yi and Rong Cai said goodbye and returned to Wuxuan Palace again. Ding Yi found that several managers in Wuxuan Palace had changed people.
Ding Yi changed a room this time, walked to another study room, picked a few books again, and started reading them seriously...
It was evening in the blink of an eye and I returned to the restaurant again. At this time, Ding Yi found that the number of people in the restaurant was significantly less, and nearly 100 scholars should have left the inner city.
The members of the Imperial Party gathered together like noon. Ding Yi was talking to them in a mess.
After dinner, everyone left the restaurant and went back to their monastery. Only Ding Yi turned around and went to the toilet next to the restaurant.
The Tiandao Sect’s further study system is actually very harsh. On the surface, those who come to the inner city to study can not only read various classics at will, but also accept the careful guidance of all the masters. In fact, there are many restrictions here.
First of all, there is a curfew in the inner city. People who come to the inner city are strictly prohibited from having private activities at night. Another thing is that there is no reservation in the inner city. When they come to learn the disciples, they can only stay in the tutor's monastery. In other words, if they are not allowed to open a monastery and want to read a few more days of book, it will not work at all.
Other restrictions include: you cannot walk around the inner city at will, you cannot read books beyond your ability, etc. To put it bluntly, the inner city is left for ordinary practitioners, and you only have one day to read.
Ding Yi is not a privileged class in the Tiandao Sect, and he cannot enjoy special treatment. He can only deal with it by taking advantage of the opportunity.
The sky gradually darkened. The sirens of the curfew in the inner city sounded, and the sounds of closing buildings, museums and halls came one after another.
Ding Yi stayed in this toilet for nearly an hour. This is one of the few dead corners in the inner city. No one is so bored and installs surveillance in the toilet. This is the hub of Ding Yi's operations.
The toilet has a very strong smell, and the cultivators eat a lot and pull it a lot. Although there is a good sewage discharge system here, this place where grains are reincarnated is originally a place where dirt is hidden, so it is normal for the smell to smell bad.
The toilet door was opened and several people came in to facilitate it. In the dim shadow above their heads, Ding Yi had to accept the stench of these Xuan-level monks again.
Ding Yi has the qualification of a dark spirit. At the same time, in order to enter Jincheng, he made more than four months of preparation work in advance, which was enough to deal with the current situation.
It took half an hour for these guys to leave. Ding Yi gently fell from the roof. He was already fully armed, wearing a helmet on his head and a black spiritual armor. This was the invisibility cloak he made specifically for this book stealing.
There is a big problem with this invisible jacket. When Ding Yi was designing it, he didn't expect that he would have been eight or nine centimeters tall in about half a year, and his armor was a little tight. Although he made some modifications last night, due to insufficient materials on hand, he could only do this level.
Last night, the mosquito puppet conducted a rough detection of the inner city. There are many formation mechanisms here, which have a great impact on the mosquito puppet. Through the compound eyes of the mosquito puppet, he can only have a rough outline.
Xiu, Sheng, Injured, Du, Jing, Death, Shock, Open, Qimen Dunjia arrangement, it is not that easy to break into the "Shengmen". The key is that in the core area of the Tiandao Gate, except for two or three hundred plain whistles patrolling back and forth, he is not sure about the arrangement of those secret whistles.
There will be an absolute arrangement for open gates and secret whistles. It is impossible for Tiandao Gate to have no arrangements.
Ding Yi knew that he could not succeed on the first day. His main purpose now is to figure out the distribution of the hidden whistles and at the same time find the path to the underground library.
Ding Yi released eight invisible insect puppets in a row. With the toilet as the center, the detection and search range was gradually expanded. Fortunately, in June and July, mosquitoes were rampant. Even if these invisible mosquitoes were discovered, they would not attract the attention of others at the first time.
These puppets mainly sense the surrounding environment through compound eyes, and also have a considerable degree of perception of spiritual power fluctuations. However, the level is still a bit low, and can only be regarded as high-level puppets of the spirit level.
It was still a bit difficult for Ding Yi to control eight puppet insects at the same time, which was equivalent to being one-sighted and eight uses. Fortunately, after he was promoted to the spirit level, his spiritual power was greatly improved. In addition, he had the auxiliary helmet, an amplification spiritual weapon, so although it was a bit difficult, he could basically barely do it.
One, two, three... It took a short time, and Ding Yi determined the distribution locations of more than a dozen secret whistles.
