Chapter 560 Sharing What We Have
Dong Rui was worried: "The Mai guy has committed a serious crime, even the Heavenly Palace is investigating him. It seems that I have to leave the city to avoid the limelight."
"You hide for nothing, people don't even know there is such a person as you." He Lingchuan laughed and scolded, "The Mai guy is hiding well, how can a ghost find him in such a big Lingxu City?"
The trip to Xushan must have a plan and helpers, don't scare Dong Rui away.
"Besides, the Heavenly Palace only has clues about the immortal medicine case, and if they want to investigate, they will investigate that first. They don't have time to care about the Mai guy for the time being." He Lingchuan looked at Dong Rui and said, "Where is Zhu Erniang's remains hidden in Xushan, have you found out where it is?"
Xiang Yan, a retired official of Chiyan State, said that only by putting an ancient strange object in the array eye can the heaven and earth sympathize.
At that time, he felt that it sounded very much like Zhu Erniang's remains, after all, the star map in its abdomen is unique. But he must confirm it before taking subsequent actions.
Dong Rui shook his head and took a sip of wine: "There are nine main peaks in Xushan Mountain, seven of which have buildings on them, and the other small peaks are not counted. I have visited all of them, even the scenic spots on the mountainside, but I didn't find it."
Both of them knew that Lingxu City opened the Xianzong ruins on Xushan Mountain to the general public for sightseeing, and did not charge admission, to show its openness and generosity.
"Is it in the cave?" There are many caves in the fairy mountain.
"I have visited the immortal medicine field and the immortal cave, but I didn't find it."
He Lingchuan asked him: "Didn't Zhu Erniang give you the magic weapon to find the remains?"
"Yes, but the induction is too weak." Dong Rui pointed to his eyes, "You have it too, right?"
He Lingchuan knew from the gesture that he was talking about the eyeball spider.
Sure enough, Zhu Erniang also assigned this little spy to Dong Rui. No wonder he counted Zhu Erniang's eyes at the beginning, and always felt that the number was wrong, and there was one missing.
The eyeball spider reacted after entering Lingxu City and confirmed that Zhu Erniang's remains were in the direction of Xushan, but the exact location was difficult to determine. It was estimated that it would take a closer approach.
"You even went to the Heavenly Palace?"
"I also went to Zhaixing Tower and worshipped the gods." Dong Rui laughed, "The eyeball spider told me that something blocked its perception, it should be a barrier."
When He Lingchuan took on this task, he didn't know much about Lingxu City, let alone where Xushan was; but now he knows that the floating island is the residence of the powerful people in Lingxu City, and their practice of hiding the remains in Xushan sounds unreasonable.
But the eyeball spider confirmed that the spider remains were really there.
"The barrier of Xushan, can you determine the exact location?"
"Of course... no!" Dong Rui said unhappily, "Do you think it's really a tourist attraction? Maybe the gods are watching us. I dare not show off everywhere. You know, I got my ghost ape embryo from Lingxu City."
He Lingchuan said, "Oh", the ghost ape, the most powerful thug of this guy, was originally the offspring of a general in Lingxu City. That's why he was wanted. Although the wanted order has been cancelled, once the victim knows that the demon puppet master has entered Lingxu City, he will definitely attack him...
"So you didn't bring the ghost ape here?"
"No!"
"Then what model did you bring, uh, I mean the demon puppet?"
Dong Rui glared at him: "Didn't you break them all?"
"You are a demon puppet master. Without a demon puppet around you is like a tiger without claws and fangs. How can this work?"
Is it so easy to make a demon puppet? Dong Rui sneered.
"Don't be so secretive. We are a team now. Maybe it will be useful in a few days."
Dong Rui was indifferent: "How can it be so coincidental that I can get whatever I want."
"It seems to be true?" He Lingchuan pondered, "What did you create? Another flying demon puppet?"
"No!" Dong Rui denied it flatly.
Tsk, then it is there. This person also said so in the Demon Nest Swamp, but he turned around and rode out two spider puppets. He Lingchuan changed the subject: "Where is the Xushan barrier, or where is the remains, you can try to ask Mai Xuewen."
Dong Rui looked at him as if he was a lunatic: "How can Mai Xuewen, a wanted criminal, know?"
"Before you knew today that he was also a wanted criminal, did you think he had great powers?"
Dong Rui didn't say a word and acquiesced.
The man who could get the treasures collected by the Qing Palace, who could help him escape from Beijia, who could make the Grand Minister of Agriculture and other dignitaries so anxious now, and who almost single-handedly uncovered the mystery of the elixir of immortality, could indeed be described as having great powers.
"Such a person did not come out of nowhere, he must have his own connections and sources of intelligence." He Lingchuan said lightly, "He has been guiding the clues of killing the monster and taking the pearl to Baishazhu for years. The person who can have such patience must have been persistent because of deep hatred or because this is his assigned job."
He paused: "Mai Xuewen is likely to belong to an organization, at least not alone. Don't the two guards in your yard prove this point?"
From Wan Song to Wu Kai, from Wu Kai to Cen Boqing, and then to the forces behind the Qingfu Temple, it is layer by layer. How difficult a task would it be to overthrow the black hand behind the elixir of immortality case?
If it is a gang against a gang, it will be much easier.
He Lingchuan had to encourage him: "How do you know it won't work if you don't try?"
Dong Rui hesitated before saying: "Actually, I asked someone and got two pieces of information."
He didn't come to Lingxu City without any achievements.
"First, the guy who stole Zhu Erniang's body made a big mistake. He saved himself from death by offering a spider body to the emperor, but his whole family was kicked out of Lingxu City." He paused, "These are all one hundred Sixty or seventy years ago, no one knew their whereabouts, and I didn’t bother to check.”
The right to live in the floating city is not permanent. Moving out here symbolizes a fall in class.
"I also asked about the location of the slough." Dong Rui scratched his head, "They say, don't ask around if you don't want to die! Don't even mention the words burrowing spider slough in Lingxu City!"
He Lingchuan looked at him suspiciously: "Who did you ask for information?"
Dong Rui chuckled: "I can't say!"
"That……"
Dong Rui intercepted again: "Anyway, this person has a high status and reliable information. What he said is absolutely correct."
He Lingchuan said calmly: "You said he has a high status, so can he get close to the deceased?"
"This..." Dong Rui thought for a while, "I'm not sure, maybe?"
"Then you tell him that the next new demon puppet to be made must be made from the remains of that cave spider."
"My next demon puppet has a relationship with him? Why should he help me?" Dong Rui scorned, "Aren't you so smart that you gave me such a bad idea?"
"I just arrived in Lingxu, so I need to get familiar with it for a while." He Lingchuan looked at him and said, "Where's the second news?"
"More than ten years ago, a violent earthquake occurred in Xushan and the entire Lingxu City. A large area of old buildings collapsed, and many civilians were killed and injured. It is said that the rescue and cleanup after the earthquake lasted for more than half a month. The post-disaster reconstruction, It took several years.”
"So serious?" He Lingchuan frowned, "How powerful is the Yuan Power possessed by Lingxu City? Why can't it even coordinate an earthquake?"
Isn't one of the important functions of Yuanli the guarantee of good weather and less disasters?
In the ten to thirty years after the founding of the Yuan Kingdom, the national power was at its strongest and the Yuan Power was at its peak. Even if floods, fires, droughts, or even earth dragons broke out in various places, they were suppressed in an instant, or the intensity was greatly weakened, and there was no repeated treatment. More than one situation.
Lingxu City is known as the greatest city in the world and is also a world-famous place of gods. How could such a severe natural disaster happen?
"One of the two boys who looked after me originally lived in the northern suburbs of Lingxu City, at the foot of Tianshu Peak in Xushan Mountain. He still remembered that there were occasional earthquakes in Lingxu City when he was a child, but the ground shook a few times, and it was no big deal. . It was not until the great earthquake that I witnessed more than ten years ago that it was truly tragic. That night, there was lightning and thunder on the Xu Mountain in the north. Thousands of blazing lights erupted from Tianshu Peak. Dark clouds rolled in the sky, and gray fog and white steam covered the sky. "
"A blazing light?" This description is not common. "Is it a volcanic eruption?"
"Yes." Dong Rui ate his food. "Tianshu Peak erupted in the evening. His family even packed up their bedding and immediately fled into the city. Thanks to their timely departure, they returned to the town a few days later and found that they had not left. The townspeople, including the chickens, cattle, dogs and sheep, were all dead.”
The toxic smoke and haze from volcanic eruptions are seriously harmful to living things.
"Later, no one dared to live under Tianshu Peak anymore. It seemed that it was turned into a military camp." Dong Rui added, "I asked, and no one remembers when the Xu Mountain last erupted."
That is to say, Xushan is usually very stable. "The Heavenly Palace is the earthly residence of the gods. How could a volcanic eruption occur?"
Dong Rui took a sip of his wine: "It is widely said among the people that the gods keep a big monster in the Xu Mountain. When the volcano erupts, the monster loses its temper. I think this theory is quite reasonable."
"how to say?"
"Hey, go to Xushan and see for yourself and you will understand." Dong Rui convinced him, "You will go anyway, right?"
"Yes." That was one of the highlights of He Lingchuan's trip to Lingxu. He changed the topic: "By the way, I remember that you have been pardoned by Lingxu and are no longer a wanted criminal."
"Yes."
"Then why are you still hiding in the house and not daring to go out to see people all day long?"
Who doesn’t want to go out openly? Dong Rui said angrily: "I have many enemies. Lingxu City has pardoned me, but my enemies may not necessarily forgive me."
He Lingchuan stretched and said, "Is it time for you to go back?"
Dong Rui hummed and stood up, only to see He Lingchuan reaching out to him.
"What are you doing again?"
"Where's the turtle bead?" When this guy left the Devil's Nest Swamp, he took He Lingchuan's turtle bead with him, either intentionally or unintentionally. "Is it time to give it back to me?"
Dong Rui rolled his eyes and wanted to take out the turtle beads and return them to their original owners. He Lingchuan suddenly said again: "By the way, I almost forgot an important thing: Do you have any -"
His voice dropped even lower: "Divine Bones?"
Dong Rui's heart skipped a beat, but fortunately he couldn't express any expression on his face: "What is a divine bone?"
