King Zhou kept his promise and took the Dharmakaya into his copper coffin suspended in the air and carried by the purple energy.
The vixen stayed outside Lutai's dormitory, waiting alone.
She stood calmly and appeared to be doing her duty, but there was a thoughtful look on her face.
Just now, she had used the time she spent with King Zhou to make an experiment in the palace. As long as there was a slight movement, the power of origin planted by Zhao Huaizhong in her body would take effect and restrain her.
She couldn't even say what she wanted to say, including asking King Zhou for help.
The prohibition of the origin text restricted any abnormal behavior on her part.
But... the fox sneered carefully.
She still found an opportunity, left the arrangement, and secretly shook off a fox feather.
The fox fur was a decoration that she had fallen off and hid before she expressed her willingness to come to see King Zhou. The vixen was sure that she could hide the origin text restriction that Zhao Huaizhong had placed when she came out of the sealing wall.
At this time, the vixen stood on the deer platform waiting as expected.
Soon, Dharmakaya came out of the coffin, with a thoughtful look on his face.
About half a quarter of an hour later, Dharmakaya drove the Seven Fragrance Chariot and left the Yin Shang Secret Palace with the vixen.
But King Zhou did not appear again.
"How did you get King Zhou to allow you to leave?" Dharmakaya asked from Qixiang's car.
"You tell me what you found in the coffin, and I will tell you what I said to King Zhou?" the vixen said.
"The coffin is very spacious, with three large rooms."
Dharmakaya smiled and said: "Moreover, the complex array structure engraved in the coffin should be related to the deeper entry method of the Death Palace. Apart from this, no other abnormalities were found."
"You actually said it so happily."
The vixen blinked her peach blossom eyes: "I told King Zhou to go out and help him find his head. If he has his head, I will stay with him and never be separated again."
And even if I don’t find the end, I will often visit him.”
Yin Shang Secret Palace.
In the Lutai dormitory, after Dharmakaya and Vixen left, there was no sound anymore, and everything seemed to have come to a standstill.
In the Lutai sleeping hall, a strand of fox fur under the bed quietly shimmered.
Then, somewhere in the dormitory, formations flashed in the void, and the fox fur fell into it and disappeared.
The time when Baiyao led everyone to investigate, the Demon Lord also disappeared from Lutai's dormitory.
"The second time I used it, this method didn't work... The vixen has been locked in the wall. She didn't know that the demon master had left the Lutai Palace once before. She thought she was acting very covertly." Zhao Huaizhong said at Xianyang Palace.
Slightly skimmed.
A few days later, in the afternoon.
The dharma body returned, and the vixen was imprisoned in the sealing wall again, and got his own single cell as he wished.
In the study, Zhao Huaizhong took out the osteoscope:
"Zou Sheng, the secret palace pattern I just passed on to you is the part carved in the coffin of King Zhou.
According to my observation, it is probably the core hub formation of the Secret Palace of Yin and Shang.
How is the situation after you check it?"
Zou Yan's voice was filled with excitement, and he responded: "It is indeed the hub of the secret palace formation. It is consistent with previous research. I have found some patterns. King Qin is waiting for the news. It will probably take some time to study it.
The specific duration is unknown.”
After the old sage finished speaking, there was no movement.
But Xunzi’s voice followed closely:
"The King of Qin has found the core of the formation pattern of the Yin and Shang Secret Palace. So it is possible that the thousand-year secret of the secret palace can be completely solved?"
"Yeah." Zhao Huaizhong responded.
Xunzi was also a little excited and contacted Zou Yan through the mirror: "Zou Yan, how about you come to Chujing? The two of us will study together, and the speed will be faster."
Zou Yan ignored him.
Xunzi was good at tempting: "Zou Yan, come here. This time, you will be the main researcher and I will assist you. How about that?"
"Why can't you come together?" Zou Yan finally said.
"When I left Qi, I said I would never return to Qi. Wouldn't it be true if I go back now and break my promise?" Xunzi said.
"Whether love comes or not, I won't go anyway." Zou Yan said.
"Okay, I'll go over there secretly to look for you. Don't reveal my whereabouts to anyone..." Xunzi said.
Zhao Huaizhong laughed dumbly and looked at the sky, it was already dusk.
He walked out of the study, feeling cold on his face.
In mid-November, the temperature dropped sharply and winter began.
Wuying Palace.
Jiang Ji, who was six months pregnant, and Yan Huansha were each sitting on a low table, having dinner.
I ate clear soup noodles.
The white noodles are as even as snow, paired with green vegetables and red scallops, which are delicious and delicious. Together with the side dishes of different colors, it is particularly tempting to the appetite.
After Zhao Huaizhong came over, he also ate some.

Wei Di, the capital of the country is Daliang.
The Wei Palace under the setting sun is magnificent and majestic, with scattered palaces.
Wearing a Wei official robe, with a hint of apricot yellow peeking out from the collar, Long Yangjun stood outside the palace.
With a slight melancholy on his face, which was more charming than a woman's, he sighed in a low voice and walked into the palace.
Outside the palace gate behind him, many Wei ministers gathered and waited: "I hope Lord Long Yang will come back and advise the king to stop increasing the cost of military training..."
Half a quarter of an hour later, Long Yangjun met Wei Wang Wei Wu:
"The Qing family went to various places to supervise the army, but they have not returned for two months. Many matters have not been discussed by anyone."
These words coming from the mouth of the emperor show how much the two generations of Wei kings relied on Lord Longyang.
"Tell me, sir, what can you gain from visiting various places in our Wei territory?" Wei Wu asked again.
Long Yangjun organized what he wanted to say and then said:
"I traveled around and found that the number of famine and poverty-stricken people in our Wei territory has increased significantly in recent years.
Although I travel around various places, I always hear news from various countries.
The people of Chu are currently talking with the people of Qin. The people of Qi... It is said that the people of Qi discovered something in the deep sea in the east a few years ago. There are rumors that it was something that fell from the real immortal world to the human world.
The King of Qi's thoughts in recent years have been focused on what he obtained from the sea.
At present, only Yan is working hard to resist Qin like me, the great Wei Dynasty.
I traveled all over the country to raise money and food, but only the people of Yan were still willing to support our great Wei, but the balance of the people of Yan was also not much. Although it was only November, the land of Yan was already showing signs of severe cold.
The people of Yan need to store up food for the cold winter."
Lord Longyang said eloquently: "I say this because I want to inform your Majesty that for more than a year in the Wei Dynasty, all my money and food have been spent on training troops.
If this continues, I, the Great Wei, may not be able to hold on any longer."
Wei Wu's face darkened: "All the ministers advised us not to continue to increase the cost of military training the day before yesterday, but I believe that military training must not stop. We, the great Wei Dynasty, have already seen the hope of defeating the Qin people.
Next year, there will be a battle between Qin and Wei. If we stop now, won't all our previous efforts be wasted?
I would rather starve than be a subjugated king. If we can defeat Qin, we, the Wei Dynasty, will soon become strong again.
As an example for the ministers, you must support me."
Long Yangjun leaned over and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, do you want to continue to increase the cost of training troops?"
"Yes, your Majesty is going to pass on my wishes and order all counties and territories to call on the people to donate food to feed the army." Wei Wu said in a deep voice.
When Lord Long Yang came out of the palace, the sky was completely dark.
But there were still Wei ministers waiting outside the palace, and they all came up to ask: "What did the king say?"
Has Lord Longyang ever advised the king to save food in preparation for the cold winter?"
Long Yangjun: "Your Majesty demands that military expenditures continue to increase, and military training cannot be stopped.
If the Qin people really come to attack Wei next year, the king's concerns are not unreasonable."
"But there is no balance in the national treasury, so where will the training expenses come from?"
"The king's intention... is to call on all places to save food to nourish the army." Long Yangjun said slowly.
Wei Chen said in shock: "This year, the amount of money spent on military training is far greater than in the past few years. It would be inappropriate to save food from the people now, and some people will have difficulty surviving the winter."
"I have carefully estimated that according to the king's plan and collecting money and food from various places, we can survive this winter without any major problems."
Lord Long Yang said: "In addition, I will set off overnight to go to Qi and Chu to discuss borrowing grain and see if there is any harvest."
In the Wei Palace, after Lord Long Yang left, Wei Wu whispered to his attendants:
"Long Yangjun just said that there are more hungry people in various places. Go and find out how many there are. Make clear statistics and report the number to me.
Remember, check carefully and closely."
"No." The waiter quickly went down to make arrangements.

Time flies, and ten months pass by in an instant.
In mid-December, Xianyang received its first snowfall, and the ground was covered with snow.
This winter has been colder than in previous years. Fortunately, Qin has abundant food reserves and is located inland, so no major cold or other disasters have occurred.
This morning, people gathered outside the military camp on the outskirts of Qinjing City.
But because winter has arrived, the Qin Army has increased winter subsidies this year, giving money and food to some veterans who have retired due to injuries, so that they can spend the winter.
Some wounded and disarmed veterans got up early in the morning to line up and wait outside the military camp.
Cao Ping is thirty-four years old this year. More than a year ago, he injured his arm during the attack on Zhao and returned to Qin from the front line.
He has a large family in his family, including elders and younger ones.
When Cao Ping came back with a crippled arm, the whole family was worried. The crippled arm meant that he could no longer participate in heavy labor. Although the wounded soldiers could receive food and pay, life would always be more difficult.
However, just at the beginning of this year, Qin revised the regulations on pensions for wounded soldiers.
People like Cao Ping not only have specific resettlement methods, but if they wish, they can also work in newly built academies in various places to make a living. If there are suitable positions available to them, senior officials in various places will also give priority to veterans who have retired due to injuries.
Qin also encouraged farming in various places. With his qualifications as a member of the Qin army, he could also obtain large areas of fertile land.
After seeing Qin's newly enacted regulations on pensions for wounded soldiers, Cao Ping's whole family was overjoyed and all their sorrows were swept away.
Yesterday, Yuri was going to his home to inform him that veterans could go to the military camp to receive subsidies. Cao Ping came over very early in the morning and was the first in line. He waited with his sleeves rolled up in the cold wind, but with a smile on his face.
At this time, he was talking playfully and happily with a group of old, weak, sick, and disabled comrades who had been in the army through life and death. They were in such high spirits that it was completely impossible to tell that they were a group of wounded soldiers who had been discharged and returned to the field.
In Xianyang Palace, Zhao Huaizhong was looking through the summary of pensions for wounded soldiers from various places that had just been sent.
After a while, he wrote a reply in the memorial.
Then he got up and went to the window and looked out of the window: As the King of Qin, there are countless things waiting for him to do.
Sometimes I feel like I have a heavy weight on my shoulders and a long way to go.
When he became the Queen of Qin, he re-formulated the regulations on subsidies and aftermath for injured and retired veterans. However, there were many things to be done, and despite all the efforts, they were not implemented until this year.
Zhao Huaizhong sat back on the low seat and was about to continue the next round of work.
Suddenly I felt the bone mirror vibrating, so I took it out to check, but there was a message from the saint circle.
