"Wait a minute, sir..." Do you want to freshen up and rest first?
Before Wu Zhen could say anything, Gu Chen, who touched the stone deer over there, suddenly let out a sigh.
Wu Zhen looked up and saw a crack suddenly appeared on the back of the stone deer. The crack spread rapidly along the deer's body, and even the antlers were full of cracks in just a few breaths. In the next moment, the mighty stone deer suddenly appeared.
The deer collapsed with a dull crashing sound and turned into stone debris all over the ground. The luggage carried on the deer's back was also scattered all over the ground.
"…Endurance exhausted?"
Wu Zhen took a moment to understand the situation.
The Stone Deer is a mount summoned by Gu Chen using the Transformation Yun device. The Transformation Yun device can turn materials such as gold, stone, earth and wood into mount deer beasts. The stronger the material, the greater the energy it consumes, and the corresponding deer beast is more durable.
The higher the strength. The stone deer should be the most durable among the deer beasts, but even this was consumed to the point of falling apart.
Wu Zhen looked at his workshop owner in astonishment, wondering what kind of desperate long journey he had gone through.
"It's really hard work."
Gu Chen exhaled heavily, bent down to pick up a long roll of objects wrapped in cowhide from the debris on the ground, and shook the ashes. Then he took out a tube of elixir from his pocket and drank it up, smacking his lips, and drank in a low voice.
Step on the flame wheel and rise slowly on the flame stream.
Next to him, the hem of Wu Zhen's skirt was blown up and down by the aftermath of the flames, but he stared blankly at the retreating figure of his master. By the time he realized what he was doing, his voice could no longer be transmitted.
"Master..."
He withdrew his gaze and looked down at the stone chips on the ground in front of him and the scrawled handwriting in his hand. Wu Zhen roughly knew how Gu Chen had been here these days.
Gratitude and admiration, respect and pity mixed together in her heart, a sour emotion that made her want to cry. The female secretary tried her best to suppress this emotion in her heart, and then she held back her tears and looked deeply towards Fang Jiao, the owner of her shop, who had left.
bowed.

"Yan Biao" was originally a special skill of Yanshi Red Fish, which was learned by Gu Chen by chance.
This move essentially uses the soles of the feet to heat the air and spray flames, thereby achieving rapid maneuvers regardless of height differences. Its movement efficiency can be said to be far superior to any current means of transportation in Chengdu. The only drawbacks are difficulty in control and intense consumption.
It’s just about accumulating strength.
In a moment, Gu Chen, who was riding the Flame Wheel, crossed half of Liyang City, and stumbled down in front of Zichen Pavilion amidst the screams of everyone. As soon as Gu Chen landed, he felt dizzy, his stomach was churning, and he even retreated.
After a few steps, he spat it out with a loud sound.
The characteristic of "Yan Biao" is that it will continuously and violently consume energy. Even if Gu Chen drank the elixir beforehand, it would be difficult to withstand the weakness as if the bone marrow has been drained. Fortunately, he has been running around so much that he hasn't had time to eat well, even if he feels like vomiting.
Nothing could come out of it.
After retching several times, Gu Chen reluctantly stood up while holding on to the wall, looking up at Zichen Pavilion ahead.
Zichen Pavilion is the center of Liyang Mansion, and it is also the place where the head Wu Yan and a group of important ministers discuss government affairs. Government orders issued from Zichen Pavilion drive the operation of the entire Liyang Kingdom, so if you want to put the ideas in your mind into practice, then
You must pass through Zichen Pavilion.
Gu Chen supported the cowhide roll behind his back and cheered up.
From the moment Kinoji encountered the mirage evil party and understood the root cause of Liyang's difficulties, he began to think about a plan that could completely solve these troubles. The plan that he had thought about for a long time was finally matured by Dongfeng, the mass production of armored cars.
And traveling by car later is just an early stage of the plan.
The solution conceived by Gu Chen is a complete change that covers the entire Liyang Kingdom. If it is truly implemented, the severing of diplomatic relations between the princes and the frame-up by Jinbo will become as easy to kick away as pebbles on the roadside. However, precisely because of that plan
It contains the huge value of reforming Liyang. It should have been promoted more calmly, but who knew that the black hands lurking behind the scenes suddenly appeared to enlarge their moves.
The frame-up of Jinbo put Liyang Mansion into an unprecedented predicament, and also forced Gu Chen to significantly advance the plan that was supposed to be steadily advanced. Because the early stage was quite thorough, even if the advance was accelerated, a barely good result could be obtained, but at a cost
But he and his crew were pushed to the edge of their mental and physical strength.
The pioneers who took turns driving might be better off. Gu Chen, who rode alone on a stone deer all night, was honestly on the verge of falling asleep until the end of the world. He relied on elixirs to stay awake.
"Just one more time, just hold on..."
Gu Chen raised his hand to wipe the remaining vomit from the corner of his mouth, and issued a tyrant-like order to the body that was wailing in protest.
At this time, a rustling sound came from the side, and Gu Chen turned his head to look. He saw that the guards of Zichen Pavilion, who were attracted by the flames in the sky, finally found the land where the descendant was, but they hesitated and did not dare to come over.
In the end, several palace guards who had dealt with Gu Chen recognized the unkempt and unkempt Young Supervisor in front of them, and greeted him with uncertainty.
"Who is coming, Mr. Young Supervisor Si?"
"It's me." Gu Chen took a deep breath and glanced sideways. "Is His Highness here?"
"Your Majesty, your Highness is discussing matters in the policy room." Shocked by the shrill ghostly aura emanating from the Juvenile Supervisor, the guards lowered their heads in awe and reported.

As the head of Liyang Mansion, Zichen Pavilion has seven layers of pavilions from top to bottom. There are hundreds of rooms distributed in the seven layers of pavilions, and the importance of a room is directly proportional to the number of floors it is on. For example, it is located in
The policy room on the sixth floor of Zichen Pavilion is an example.
The Policy Discussion Room is the place where the governor convenes his core staff to discuss and make decisions. Many important policies that determine the future of Liyang Kingdom come from here. A few years ago, Duke Liyang retired to the border, and since then, the eldest princess Wu Yan has been in charge of Liyang Mansion. Because Wu Yan
He inherited the vigorous and resolute style of his ancestors, and he also had a sharp eye for distinguishing right from wrong. Therefore, most of the time he directly made decisions on consular affairs in the governor's office, so there was very little precedent for summoning staff to the policy room.
On the other hand, when the strategy room of Zichen Pavilion was activated, it meant that Liyang Mansion encountered a big trouble that even the female leader in charge could not get rid of. And the same is true this time.
In fact, this consular policy discussion lasted for five full days.
But still no result.
"...In other words, you are still opposed to sending troops to Jinbo?"
In front of the desk in the policy room, Wu Yan crossed his arms and glanced at the retainers in front of him with his only single eye.
Princess Wu's words were low-pitched, but they caused trembling waves among the retainers. All the veterans of the Wu family present knew that for the heroine in charge of the house who was always decisive in killing, it was so slow to come up with results.
The long meeting was unprecedented, and it probably almost reached the limit of her patience.
"What? No one can even answer my questions?"
Wu Yan strengthened his tone, but the retainers looked at each other in shock after hearing this.
