Chapter five hundred and forty-ninth palace treasury
"No, this is absolutely not possible. How can a noble person like you, Miss Hai Xin, live in the same hospital as him and act as a maid to take care of his food and daily life? This is absolutely not possible." Bai Cangdong has not yet answered,
Duke Jinghua shouted loudly first.
"The way of the sword is the way of life. Hai Xin devotes himself to the sword in order to find the way of the sword. Although Marquis Dong is only a marquis, he is the master of the lineage that inherited the Taishang's way of sword. Hai Xin
Learning from Marquis Dong, it can be said that Marquis Dong is Hai Xin’s husband. It is an honor for Hai Xin to be able to take care of him and watch his master blend into life.
Even if you can't take him as your teacher now, Hai Xin will definitely abide by the etiquette of teacher and student and respect Marquis Dong as a master." Miss Hai Xin looked solemn and said to Duke Jinghua solemnly.
After that, he solemnly bowed to Bai Cangdong.
"Miss Haixin..." Duke Jinghua didn't look very good, and he wanted to persuade her again.
"Your Excellency, there is no need to persuade Hai Xin any more. Hai Xin has made up his mind and cannot accept Marquis Dong as his teacher. If he can no longer serve him, how can Hai Xin learn the sword skills of Marquis Dong." Hai Xin's meaning is very clear.
If she agreed to her request, she would not come to the Duke's mansion to learn the art of swordsmanship from Bai Candong.
"Since Miss Haixin is so determined towards the Tao, Marquis Dong, just promise her." Duke Jinghua said to Bai Candong with a forced smile.
Finally, Miss Hai Xin also moved into the courtyard where Bai Candong was located, but because there was only one small building in the courtyard, Bai Candong and Miss Hai Xin could only live in different rooms in the same small building.
Miss Haixin declined Duke Jinghua's invitation to hold a banquet to celebrate, and went back to arrange the ceremony before moving into the Duke's mansion tomorrow.
"Your Majesty the Duke, is it time to fulfill the promise you made to me?" Early the next morning, before Miss Hai Xin came over, Bai Candong found Duke Jinghua first.
"Don't be impatient, Marquis Winter. I have already applied to my father. I believe I can apply in a day or two. Then I can take you into the palace treasure house." Duke Jinghua said with a smile on his face.
After Bai Candong heard this, he turned around and walked out without saying anything.
"Stop, where are you going?" Duke Jinghua shouted to stop Bai Candong.
"Go tell Miss Hai Xin that she doesn't need to come to the Duke's Mansion." Bai Cangdong replied without looking back.
"How dare you." Duke Jinghua was furious and flew out to block Bai Candong. He raised his palm and was about to strike at Bai Candong.
"Why don't I dare? Since the Duke dares to violate his oath, what else can I expect? The worst I can do is die." Bai Candong ignored Duke Jinghua's raised palm and walked outside. He had spotted it right.
Now that Duke Jinghua is about to succeed, it is impossible to actually kill him. If he dies, all the previous efforts will be in vain.
"You..." As expected, Duke Jinghua couldn't clap his hands. He retracted his palms bitterly and said, "Don't you just want to go to the treasure house now? Okay, I'll take you there now."
"Then it's Duke Lao." Bai Cangdong turned around and smiled.
Duke Jinghua wished he could slap his face to pieces, but he could only suppress the anger in his heart and lead Bai Cang eastward to the palace.
The palace in the Undersea City is very different from ordinary palaces. From a distance, it looks like a huge blue diamond suspended above the ground. It looks quite magical and very gorgeous and spectacular.
Entering this fully enclosed palace, the entire palace reflected in blue light was like a dreamland. Bai Candong followed Duke Jinghua, almost feeling like he was in a dream.
"What a beautiful palace. It would be a pleasure to live here with your beloved woman forever." Bai Cangdong couldn't help but murmured to himself.
"You are so ambitious. This underwater city is a relic of the ancient times. Although it is not as good as the King's City, it is inferior to even the King's City in some aspects. My father also experienced continuous wars and lost a lot of money.
Blood, how many people have been killed, almost dyeing the nearby sea red with blood. In order to occupy this underwater city, you, a little marquis, still want to occupy this place." Duke Jinghua gave Bai Candong a cold look.
"I always have dreams." Bai Cangdong said with a smile.
"Thinking about unrealistic things in broad daylight is not called dreaming, but daydreaming." Duke Jinghua curled his lips disdainfully.
"Maybe." Bai Candong did not argue.
After passing numerous checkpoints and heavily guarded passages, Bai Cangdong, led by Duke Jinghua, finally entered the palace's warehouse, also known as the treasure house.
The entire treasure house is divided into many huge warehouses. Duke Jinghua led Bai Candong to a warehouse numbered 174, and the warehouse manager who accompanied him opened the warehouse.
The entire warehouse covers an area of at least dozens of acres, with rows of wooden racks arranged neatly, and rows of wicks neatly placed on the wooden racks. At a glance, the countless wicks are like a colorful galaxy, densely packed.
Too many to count.
Bai Candong was a little frightened by the sight in front of him. There were too many wicks in the palace's collection. If he had to pick them one by one, he didn't know how long it would take.
"Your Majesty, according to the king's decree, you can choose two wicks." The warehouse manager reminded from the side.
Duke Jinghua nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, but looked at Bai Cangdong: "Winter Marquis, you can go in and choose the wick now."
"There are so many wicks, I don't know when to pick them, and I wonder if there is a catalog I can check?" Bai Cangdong asked with a frown.
"The account books of the warehouse are confidential and cannot be leaked. Please forgive me. Please be quick in selecting the wicks. The warehouse must be closed after two hours. That is the time specified by the king." The warehouse manager said softly.
Bai Cangdong had no choice but to step into the warehouse and scan the rows of wicks and wick fragments. In this ocean-like wick, he had to find the colorful phantom sea wick fragments within two hours.
It is really an extremely difficult thing. Even Bai Candong has no confidence at all and can only rely on luck.
Fortunately, there is a certain rule for storing lamp wicks in the warehouse, and Bai Candong quickly arrived at the area dedicated to storing the fragments.
"These fragments are also stored according to their categories. Unfortunately, I don't know which category the colorful fantasy sea wicks belong to. Now I can only find them based on guesswork." Bai Candong first went to the fantasy wick fragment area.
, but it took him nearly half an hour to look at all the wicks, but he didn't find the colorful Phantom Sea wick he needed.
Duke Jinghua and the warehouse manager followed Bai Candong silently, watching him choose.
"You come here to pick out the wick fragments. Could it be that you already have something in your heart? Why don't you tell me and listen. Maybe I can help you find the wick fragments you want." Duke Jinghua looked at Bai Candong with a half-smile.
"There is no fixed need, so I won't bother the Duke. I'll take a look for myself." After Bai Cangdong responded, he stopped talking and thought to himself: "If it's not the fantasy system, what else will it be?
Which element is it? Is it the water element?"
Although he knew that Duke Jinghua was already somewhat suspicious, Bai Cangdong had no other choice but to continue searching, hoping to find the colorful phantom sea wick. As long as he got it, Duke Jinghua would not regret it.
However, what disappointed Bai Cangdong was that among the wick fragments of the water system, he could not find the location of the wick fragments of the Colorful Phantom Sea. Bai Cangdong could only change the target again, and it took him nearly an hour and a half to search.
He did not find any trace of the wick fragments of the colorful phantom sea.
"Winter Marquis, didn't you find any satisfactory wick fragments?" Duke Jinghua asked with a sneer.
After looking at Duke Jinghua, Bai Cangdong's heart moved: "Since Duke Jinghua has a grudge against Hai Mengjue and knows that he needs the wick of Seven-Colored Fantasy Sea, it is very likely that Duke Jinghua has already taken away the wick of Seven-Colored Fantasy Sea.
This possibility is still very high. If it is true, even if I search the entire wick warehouse, I may not be able to find the fragments of the colorful magic sea wick."
Since he couldn't find it, Bai Cangdong stopped being persistent and planned to take a look at the wicks of the sword series first. Maybe there was something he needed.
Ignoring white wicks, bronze wicks and silver wicks, Bai Cangdong went directly to the golden wicks of the sword series and walked past the wicks, hoping that one of the wicks would attract the attention of the sword box.
"Winter Marquis, as a swordsman, you don't look at the wicks of the sword type, but instead look at the wicks of the sword type here. This is unexpected." Duke Jinghua who had been following him asked coldly.
"What's strange about this? Swordsmen don't necessarily have to use sword-type wicks. I'm particularly concerned about several types of sword-type wicks. I think they'll be of great use to me, so I came to the Undersea City." Bai Cang
Dong replied casually.
"Oh, the sword-type wick can actually make a swordsman's heart flutter. I don't know what kind of wick the Marquis of Winter is talking about. I am very interested in knowing now." Duke Jinghua couldn't help but ask.
"Lamp wicks are a big secret for everyone. I don't plan to tell anyone, lest someone follows me and snatches those wicks." Bai Cangdong replied.
"You came to the Undersea City specifically to look for the sword wick, which means it must be a wick unique to our seabed. Just now I saw that you have been looking at the fragments of other wicks. Could it be that the sword wick you are looking for is the Eight Gods of the Crystal Palace?
Sword wick?" The warehouse manager thought for a long time and suddenly said.
"What is Crystal Palace Eight God Sword Wick?" Bai Candong showed a puzzled expression.
However, Duke Jinghua showed the original expression on his face: "You don't have to pretend anymore. It turns out that you are here for the wick of the Eight God Sword of the Crystal Palace. Do you have to enter the warehouse? It is true that only in this warehouse can the Crystal Palace exist."
Yagami Sword Wick.”
"Since you think I'm here for the wick of the Eight Divine Swords of the Crystal Palace, can you tell me where it is?" Bai Cangdong knew that they had all misunderstood, but this just suited him, lest Duke Jinghua suspect others.
, but he didn’t know why they insisted that they came for the Crystal Palace Eight Divine Sword Wick. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes for your support.
