Chapter 120 Can’t help but transform into a stubborn fish
Under the snow line, between the black rocks and the meadows, under the rainbow light, the dreamlike and beautiful manor suddenly appeared at the end of the line of sight.
"When did I not notice it?" Ye Chuxiao said.
Yuan Meng said: "This is an 'invisible art' that has been solidified on a large scale. If the people in the manor had not taken the initiative to release the art, people outside would not have been able to discover the existence of this manor if they passed by it ten thousand times."
"The safest protection is to hide what you want to protect as if it doesn't exist."
"It is indeed worthy of being called a royal estate, and the security work is indeed in place." Ye Chuxiao said with a smile.
The carriage stopped in front of the manor. In front of two huge stone pillars, a huge door suddenly appeared and opened with a roar.
The fat prince, who was dressed in a purple dragon robe and had a rich appearance, led many people to stand behind the door, waiting with a smile on his face, full of intimacy.
Zhao Wang Xiao Yi is an "old man" who is over a hundred years old by calculation, but because of his successful practice and long life, he looks like he is no longer in his prime.
He is the uncle of today's young emperor. He is the same generation as King Xiao Chi of the Chen Dynasty, but he is also the only surviving royal family member of that generation.
The current King of Zhao, Xiao Yi, is the Zongzheng of the Daheng Clan and is in charge of the clan mansion. To a certain extent, he can also be regarded as the patriarch of the Xiao Royal Clan.
Of course, when there is an emperor, it would be restrictive to establish another clan leader, so he calls it 'Zongzheng'. He only manages the branches and distant relatives of the Xiao family, and the direct descendants of the current royal family.
The emperor and the queen mother need to make a decision, and Zhao Wang Xiao Yi cannot be arbitrary.
Seeing the carriage settle down, the rich and fat King Zhao actually trotted over, very enthusiastic.
After seeing Shi Huang and Er Long, he was full of welcome and complimentary words, and there was even a hint of "adding" to his tone and accent.
It makes people look down upon him unconsciously, thinking that this person has no royal dignity, but looks like a gentle and wealthy businessman.
"Don't underestimate this Prince Zhao! It's not easy for him to survive during the late emperor's reign and still hold certain rights."
"Compared with the current situation in which the emperor and the queen mother are fighting for power in Daheng, the situation faced by the late emperor was ten times more complicated. There was also a lot of mess left after the death of King Chen. This Prince Zhao was also the right-hand man of the late emperor. He helped
I dealt with many things that were inconvenient for the late emperor to deal with, took a lot of blame, and suffered a lot of punishment. In the end, I survived the late emperor and survived to this day." Ying Shu saw this scene through Ye Chuxiao's perspective,
He opened his mouth and left a message in Ye Chuxiao's heart.
Ye Chuxiao did not reply.
What kind of judgment did Ying Shu rely on to behave rudely in front of King Zhao?
He is not mentally ill.
"However, this King Zhao is from the same era as King Chen?" Ye Chuxiao felt quite strange, but then he thought that it should be so.
After all, when a monk reaches the Wonderful Realm, he can increase his Yangshou, Transformation Realm, Wisdom Realm, and Artistic Realm. Every time he breaks through the barriers, the upper limit of his lifespan will be exceeded and increased.
For those with higher cultivation levels, it is common for them to live for hundreds of years.
It was only because from the time of King Xiao Chi of the Morning Dynasty, there were outstanding people in Daheng every few decades. Under the circumstances of heroes, those old guys often fell into pieces. This made the older monks of the Daheng Dynasty
, seem to be relatively rare, and some of the living ones are hiding, frightened like frightened birds, and do not show up easily.
Not to mention, Tang Sutong worked hard to innovate and implement reforms. During those years of reforms, he killed many old guys who tried to stop him from implementing reforms.
It is a pity that with the death of the late emperor, the young emperor's temperament was unstable and he could not withstand the backlash of the world. He no longer supported Tang Sutong's reform. The Queen Mother also blocked it. Tang Sutong also saw through the reform process.
Due to the law of cause and effect, he finally chose to sacrifice his life to the Tao.
Looking at Prince Zhao, Ye Chuxiao had a deeper idea about Shi Huang's plan to ensure that the two dragons entered this royal manor.
"It seems that Mr. Shi wants to open a breakthrough from Prince Zhao and learn the identity and origin of the artistic conception-level eunuch." Ye Chuxiao thought to himself.
The group entered the interior of the manor, passed through the courtyard full of exotic flowers and plants, and actually took a boat across the lake and followed the waterway to a cave. Clusters of flame grass in the cave lit up under the sound.
A ray of light arose, lighting up the cave with colorful lights.
Inside the cave, there are stone pillars, stone tables, stone benches, etc. naturally formed by stalactites and jade.
The spiritual liquid rich in spirituality occasionally drips from the stalactites above the head. When it falls on the body, it makes people feel refreshed and at the same time, the true energy will also solidify slightly.
"If I practice the secret technique of climbing towers here all year round, maybe I can reach the 100th floor in a short period of time." Ye Chuxiao sighed in his heart.
Accompanied by the crisp ringing of the jade bell, amid the chatter of everyone, and in the light illuminated by the flame grass, a female cultivator like a fairy leaped out of the darkness in a gauze skirt, and then passed by nimbly and swiftly.
On the cold lake surface, a dexterous dance began on the water.
Ye Chuxiao felt that he had entered a beautiful and time-losing dream.
When he woke up from his dream, the banquet had already come to an end.
The food and wine placed in front of him had already been ruined by himself.
My stomach is slightly full, my teeth are fragrant, but I don't seem to remember the process of 'spoiling' food and wine. Everything is just immersed in that light and soothing dream.
"It's so beautiful, so beautiful that people forget time." Ye Chuxiao said with emotion.
"It's just the effect of the incense. If you don't believe me, look at the two dragons next to you." Ying Shu reminded with a sneer.
Ye Chuxiao turned around and saw that Yuan Yue and Yuan Meng were both falling on the table and falling asleep sweetly.
They didn't even restrain their figures, revealing their prototypes.
Two dragons, one white and one green, lay paralyzed there, with their mouths open and sleeping soundly, with ambergris saliva dripping from them.
"Are you going to close the door and kill the dragon?" Ye Chuxiao was suddenly startled, and suddenly he was covered in cold sweat.
"You are overthinking. With just a hint of malice, they will wake up at any time. The effect of the incense is just to make the dragons rest very well after smelling it. Each tael is worth tens of thousands of gold."
"Even ordinary monks can be greatly relieved by the incense of dragon incense, and even forget the loss of time."
"Do you feel that your spirit is particularly relaxed now, and you don't even feel nervous anymore?" Ying Shu seemed to talk a bit too much. It was obvious that she was also very interested in the royal estate on Yao Mountain.
On the other side, Shi Huang and King Zhao, who had been chatting, looked at each other and smiled, as if this had been a tacit understanding between them for a long time.
The two dragons represent Yunmeng Daze's determination to find the Yunmeng Dading Cauldron, and they also work hard for good weather in the seven states around Yunmeng Ze. From a general sense, they should support it.
But how can the royal manor be allowed to be rummaged by Wailong at will?
Who knows how many unknown secrets the Daheng royal family has hidden in this royal manor over the past hundreds of years.
Maybe just a few of them can cause an uproar across the world, or even cause unnecessary turmoil.
What's more, it also contains the oral instructions of Zhen Haigong.
Therefore, the two dragons can enter the royal estate, but they are also destined not to move around freely and must return without success.
This not only takes care of face, but also keeps integrity.
As for Erlong not being reconciled?
They couldn't bear the power of alcohol. They were drunk when they first entered the manor and stayed drunk until they left the manor. Who can blame them?
Looking at Shi Huang who maintained a tacit understanding with King Zhao at this time, Ye Chuxiao could not help but sigh at the versatility of Mr. Shi.
The second dragon has fallen!
But the responsibility for finding Yunmeng Dading lies with him, Ye Chuxiao.
This routine, layer upon layer... is like an old Thousand Layer Cake.
After the banquet was over, Shi Huang and King Zhao went into the study to have a deep talk. It was obvious that Shi Huang wanted to ask King Zhao for advice.
As for Ye Chuxiao, he was left in the care of a young-looking chamberlain.
This young chamberlain named 'Jixiang' is quite handsome, and he has reached the peak of the wonderful realm at a young age. In terms of realm alone, he is still a little higher than Ye Chuxiao.
The chamberlain's training method is unique, and in the early stages, he can indeed move very quickly.
"My lord! Please get on the deer cart. If you want to go to the Snow Top Hot Spring, you must get on this colorful deer cart before dusk. When the moon rises, sit in the hot spring and enjoy the wonders of the Snow Top Hot Spring.
." Jixiang drove a deer cart and stopped in front of Ye Chuxiao, and said with a low eyebrow.
Ye Chuxiao got on the deer cart and watched as the deer cart, driven by Jixiang, kept accelerating until the scenery on the left and right sides retreated quickly and even stretched into long lines.
Even if there is a huge rock blocking the road ahead, the deer cart will not turn or jump up, but will directly hit it.
Instead, the rocks automatically separated from left to right to reveal a path, and then closed again after the deer cart moved away.
"Jixiang! How many years have you been in this manor?" Ye Chuxiao asked Jixiang who was driving.
Ji Xiang did not look back, but said with a gentle tone: "Your Majesty! I entered the palace at the age of thirteen. Later, I was favored by the chief steward and was assigned to work in the royal manor. It has been twenty years now."
Ye Chuxiao was a little stunned after hearing this, but he was not surprised. This Ji Xiang looked tender-faced, and he was already in his thirties.
In fact, the honor and disgrace of being a chamberlain are all tied to the master who takes refuge.
Being assigned to the royal manor, although far away from some disputes, is still equivalent to being assigned to a royal estate, and there is no future for him.
"So, you entered the palace during the late emperor's time?" Ye Chuxiao asked.
Jixiang said: "Yes!"
"Then do you still remember that there was a year when some eunuchs disappeared in the inner court?" Ye Chuxiao asked.
Ji Xiang said: "This slave has never heard of it."
Ye Chuxiao nodded and did not ask any further questions.
Not every eunuch is tight-lipped, but for those who are not, the grass on their graves is probably three feet high.
Half an hour later, we reached the top of the snow.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the distant starlight and moonlight seemed to be within reach.
It was freezing cold and windy at the top of the mountain, and apart from a few deep snow pits, there were no hot springs anywhere.
However, Ye Chuxiao did not ask, but quietly stood by the deer cart and waited.
About after the twilight completely sets, the moonlight and starlight become brighter and brighter.
Then the moonlight and starlight condensed like water droplets and fell into the snow pit on the top of the mountain.
The snow in the snow pit is melted by the moonlight and starlight.
The water in the pool quickly overflowed from all directions. It was unknown whether it was cold smoke or hot air. It emerged from the top of the pool water and gradually evaporated, creating a wonderful mist.
"My lord! You can take a dip in the pool!" Jixiang said to Ye Chuxiao.
Ye Chuxiao nodded, took off his coat, then put on inner clothes, took off his shoes and stepped into the pool.
This is a very strange feeling.
The water in the pool is ice cold, bone-chilling.
But when the clear water from the pool enters the body, the feeling flowing on the skin and body is burning.
Cold and heat intersected and entangled with each other, but it was like invisible little hands, constantly rubbing and stroking Ye Chuxiao's body.
Ye Chuxiao swam to the middle of the soup pool.
Then when the mist spread and became thicker, he plunged to the bottom of the pool.
Strangely enough, the bottom of the snow pit, which was not very deep, could be seen at first, but when it was filled with hot spring water, it seemed difficult to reach the bottom.
Ye Chuxiao dived dozens of meters but still didn't touch the bottom.
However, the deeper you go, the colder air becomes heavier and the warm air becomes weaker. Even Ye Chuxiao's body is a little unable to bear it. He has no choice but to float up and use the 'temperature' of the hot spring water to disintegrate the body surface.
Enclosed frost.
He raised his eyes and looked towards the shore.
Ji Xiang has disappeared, only the deer cart is still parked on the shore. The colorful deers are chewing the ganoderma hanging around their necks with a leisurely expression.
"Isn't he here to monitor me?" Ye Chuxiao didn't see Ji Xiang's figure and was slightly startled.
Then the second dive began.
This time, Ye Chuxiao drew several Yanyang talismans outside his body in advance to resist the coldness under the water.
When we dived to about fifty meters, the coldness reached another level. Not only that, the water in this pool seemed to be extra heavy compared to normal water. At a depth of fifty meters, the strong water pressure was also squeezing the pool.
The pressure on Ye Chuxiao's body was unbearable for him.
"It still doesn't work! Even if I continue to dive, my limit is only sixty or seventy meters, but with the naked eye, even if it is more than a hundred meters... I can't see the bottom."
"Unless I have a special magic weapon, I won't be able to get to the bottom on this trip." Ye Chuxiao came up again.
But when he was still more than ten meters away from the water, the Changsheng Sword suddenly moved.
The life energy actually began to accumulate rapidly.
"dangerous!"
"Someone is setting an ambush above the hot spring!"
"Isn't this a royal manor? How could it be so?" Ye Chuxiao was confused, but he couldn't go any further for the time being.
Although he didn't come up, someone went into the water.
Looking at it from Ye Chuxiao's point of view, the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of slender, cold white, well-proportioned long legs.
Then, Ye Chuxiao remembered a song.
Like a seaweed, seaweed, seaweed, swaying with the waves, seaweed, seaweed, dancing in the waves.
Although he couldn't see his face, Ye Chuxiao was sure that it must be a stunning beauty in the world.
"Been cheated!" At this moment, Ye Chuxiao couldn't care less about enjoying the beautiful scenery. This was the first thought that flashed through his mind.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Chuxiao saw that the snow-white pointed chin, together with the red lips, had fallen under the water waves, and half of his face was revealed in his eyes.
The death aura spread rapidly, and the intention of the Eternal Life Sword was clear in Ye Chuxiao's heart, and he wanted to use the sword excitedly.
Ye Chuxiao didn't have time to think too much, so he transformed into a small white fish by using the transformation method of the original teaching, consuming his own coat.
Wow!
The water ripples softly.
A head full of green hair ripples softly in the pool water.
Ye Chuxiao saw the other half of the face.
There is a natural mixture of anger and charm between those eyebrows, which makes people's hearts flutter just by looking at them.
If we look at the past from Ye Chuxiao's perspective, he is a holy monk, and he will inevitably have thoughts of the ordinary.
Ye Chuxiao couldn't help but turn into a stiff fish.
"Idiot! Run!" Ying Shu interrupted Ye Chuxiao's concentration.
"She is a natural enchantress. If you continue to look at her, you will lose control of the spell and reveal her true form."
"What do you think will happen if you appear naked in front of her?" Ying Shu said with a hint of joking in her tone.
Ever since she had real emotions, she became more and more unlikable.
"How can a person have a charm body? If I remember correctly, this kind of physique is usually a physique that can only appear after monsters such as fox monsters and snake monsters have transformed into shapes after practicing for many years." Ye Chuxiao wondered.
road.
Ying Shu said: "If you are a human-demon hybrid, there is a small chance that you will inherit this physique."
"I know who she is! She is the little emperor's sister. Her origins are very interesting. Although she is the current eldest princess of Daheng, there are also rumors that her father is actually the King of Chen.
"
"Chen King? This is impossible! Chen King has been dead for more than a hundred years, and she doesn't look that old." Ye Chuxiao has been in the wonderful realm for some time now. Looking at the halo outside the human body, it can be seen that
Appropriately guess some aspects of the other party, such as age and so on.
Although sometimes it is not accurate.
But not long ago, this 'princess' just showed Ye Chuxiao a complete picture.
After seeing it so thoroughly, no matter how bad Ye Chuxiao's eyesight was, he should still be able to see some clues.
This princess is clearly not yet thirty years old.
"You don't know this. Because of this princess's mother, she laid eggs!"
"It's possible to stay in the egg for a few more years!" Ying Shu said.
The little white fish transformed by Ye Chuxiao kept swimming downstream.
And behind him, the eldest princess, her highness, actually chased him.
Compared with Ye Chuxiao, she is more like a flexible mermaid in this pool of water.
"Why is she chasing me?" Ye Chuxiao thought to himself.
"Nonsense! This pool will only melt snow and water after sunset and when the stars and the moon rise together. Look around, are there any other living things besides you?" Ying Shu laughed.
Ye Chuxiao tilted his lips, and then he could only accept his fate and continue diving.
I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess has lost interest or cannot bear the pressure and will give up when the time comes.
Otherwise, if he is "taken by someone else," he will have no choice but to wander around the world.
It's a pity that Her Royal Highness the Princess's cultivation and endurance are better than Ye Chuxiao imagined.
When she dived to a depth of fifty or sixty meters, she was still chasing after him, and there was no look of unbearable difficulty on her face.
In those pure, clear eyes, there was only persistence and curiosity.
Although she seems to be almost thirty, her soul seems to be that of a young girl.
Innocent and romantic, she didn't think much about Ye Chuxiao's sudden appearance of the white fish. She just wanted to catch him, study it carefully, and play with it.
