After Lin Zou drove the carriage out of the Ao Ao Arena, he drove directly towards the city lord's palace.

According to Lin Minghao's plan, when he punishes An Huming in public and takes back the position of city lord, the news will surely spread throughout the wilderness quickly.

When the time comes, the commanders in the city lord's palace will probably jump over the wall and snatch the treasures in the palace before Lin Minghao arrives.

Therefore, Zheng Qiu and the others must first sneak into the palace and lock several of the most important treasure houses to prevent a large number of treasures from being lost.

The carriage stopped outside the wall behind the palace. Lin Zou opened the door and said, "We've arrived. We can enter the city lord's palace from here."

Zheng Qiu jumped off the carriage, looked up at the high wall, and asked doubtfully: "Go in from here, fly in?"

"of course not."

Lin Zou walked to the stone wall and stretched out his hand to press on the stone bricks on the wall. After a while, the sound of a mechanism operating came from the stone wall.

The wall sunk three inches inward, then rose upward, revealing a very narrow passage.

"This... is actually a secret passage!" Zheng Qiu said in surprise.

Granny Tang still explained slowly: "There are many secret passages like the city lord's palace, which were secretly built by successive city lords.

Each city lord only knows a few that he has built and a few that he occasionally finds.

The city lord will tell some of the secret passages to people he trusts. I know one, and Lin Zou also knows one. His is the treasure house area closest to the palace."

Lin Zou led the way, and the three of them walked sideways into the narrow secret passage.

As he walked forward, Zheng Qiu asked: "The city lord asked to lock the treasure house, so what should I do?

I don’t know any of the roads inside, and I don’t know where the mechanisms and formations are, so I can’t help at all.”

Lin Zou replied without looking back: "Don't worry, you will know later."

When you open the stone door at the end of the secret passage, you will see a row of tall buildings.

Lin Zou asked the two of them to follow him, and walked around to the door of a room. The corridor was empty and seemed very deserted.

Because today is the day for the duel for the title of city lord, most of the commanders in the palace rushed to the arena to watch, and not many people stayed here.

Zheng Qiu smelled the strong smell of herbs at the door of the room and knew that the things stored inside must be related to medicinal materials.

Lin Zou took out a key from his arms, poked the keyhole for a moment, and cursed softly: "Damn it, they changed the door lock in just over half a month!"

Zheng Qiu also frowned. The door lock was made of cast iron. Lin Zou would definitely be able to break it open by bombarding it with his energy. He could also control the flames to burn it for a period of time.

But of these two methods, one makes too much noise and the other takes too long.

Granny Tang patted Lin Zou on the shoulder and motioned for him to get out of the way. She took out a small charcoal pencil from her sleeve and drew a two-inch curse pattern on the left side of the keyhole.

She recited the incantation formula quickly in her mouth, so fast that Zheng Qiu didn't hear even half of the word. Then a small stream of water appeared out of thin air from the incantation lines and poured into the keyhole.

Then Granny Tang drew the same size curse pattern on the right side of the keyhole, but the shape was different.

After she finished reciting the second incantation, a burst of cold air came out of the door lock, and the cast iron lock suddenly became thick with white frost.

The clear water in the keyhole quickly condenses into ice and expands outward.

With a slight crunching sound, the door lock was cracked, and a large piece of cast iron swayed and fell down.

Lin Zou quickly stretched out his hand to catch the fallen pieces of iron, then gently pushed the iron door open and invited everyone in.

There were bags of various sizes stacked up in the room. Zheng Qiu opened some of them and found that they were filled with ground medicinal powders, probably used to make pills and plasters.

Lin Zou rummaged around the room. After a while, he picked up a palm-sized bag from the corner and handed it to Zheng Qiu.

"This is?"

Lin Zou explained: "This is the raw material of Zuishen incense, the seeds of the bitter drunken god flower, which have not yet been ground into medicinal powder.

You let these bitter drunken flowers grow, and I will blow the pollen out, and then I can catch all the remaining commanders in the palace."

Zheng Qiu couldn't believe it: "Is this pollen really that powerful? The city lord's palace is not small. Even if the pollen from these seeds can cover it, the concentration is probably very low."

Lin Zou replied: "It's absolutely amazing. This stuff has strong medicinal properties. To make it into drunken incense, it needs to be diluted thousands of times before it can be used. The only drawback is that it is difficult to cultivate.

But this shortcoming is no problem for you, right, Boss Zheng."

Zheng Qiu couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard that the medicinal properties of Kuzui Shenhua were powerful.

He really needed a plant with powerful effects as his means of attack, and the seeds of the God of Bitterness were so drowsy that he hit his pillow.

So he asked directly: "It is easy to cultivate these seeds, but where do we go to release pollen?"

Lin Zou raised his finger and pointed to the top of his head: "There is a city lord's study room above, which overlooks the palace. The best effect is to release pollen from there. I know the shortcut, you follow me!"

After that, Lin Zou walked out of the medicine powder room first, looked around, and then called Zheng Qiu and Granny Tang to follow.

As Zheng Qiu walked, he grabbed some seeds from the bag and secretly hid them in his sleeves.

The Lone Ao Arena was very lively today, and the stands were already packed with people, and they couldn't even find a place to stay.

People who could not enter the arena to watch gathered in the square outside the building, waiting for the final result of the duel between the city lords.

Most of the commanders appointed by An Huming came here and mingled with the crowd in the stands, constantly calling on everyone to cheer for the city lord.

The Lisha Treasure Hunting Team also came to the arena to watch, but they were controlled in the corners of the stands by the commanders and monitored closely, and they were not allowed to shout any slogans.

Time passed bit by bit, and when the sun gradually moved towards the center of the sky, An Huming's figure finally appeared at the gate of the VIP passage.

He led a team of commanders, put his hands behind his back and walked into the arena with pride.

An Huming raised his eyes and swept towards the stands. The commander in the crowd immediately cheered, and at the same time ordered the spectators on the side to cheer too.

Seeing the cheers, An Huming showed a satisfied smile on his face and continued walking into the arena.

He refused to explain or anyone to introduce him, left the stands in person, and flew slowly over the battlefield.

"People of the deserted city, I am your city lord, a kind and great city lord."

Anhu Mingjia flew in the air, opened his arms and shouted loudly to the people in the arena, "Your loyalty to me and your love for me are the most precious wealth of the Great Wilderness and the cornerstone of its greater strength.

But today, there is a sinner who attempts to shake the foundation of the Great Wilderness and plunge the Great Wasteland into a place of eternal destruction. He wants to challenge me here!
