Chapter 647: Meeting over the Wall

He Lingchuan raised his cup and said to Du Shan: "For your words, I should make it clear. Come!"

Du Shan also laughed, and the two raised their cups and drank together.

He Lingchuan simply called the waiter and said: "Bring five jars of Qinxiangchun, fill them up for everyone. If five jars are not enough, bring five more."

The students were delighted: "He Xiao is generous!" Not all students in the Imperial College have a good family background and can afford Qinxiangchun for five taels of silver.

"After Prince Huan set the fire, the Emperor summoned me and Prince Yue to the Heavenly Palace to appease him." He Lingchuan threw a large ingot of silver to the waiter, and said heroically, "Why should I keep these reliefs? Why not treat everyone to a drink today!"

Everyone smiled.

Zheng Zewu, Gao Jilin, Du Shan and others frowned.

The Emperor usually stays in Lingxiao Palace on Tianxin Island. Why would he summon Chiyan people to the Heavenly Palace to appease him?

Is there something about the gods involved?

The water is so deep.

This time, everyone drank in Xiangmanlou until the sun set, and then they went home in high spirits.

He Lingchuan went to pay the bill, and before he even took out his wallet, the shopkeeper smiled brightly:

"No need, Mr. He, Fang, the chief steward of Dunyuan, has just paid for us."

He Lingchuan was surprised: "He left a long time ago, and we just drank so much wine, how did he pay the bill?"

"General steward Fang often entertains guests here, and usually the bill is paid once a month."

Being rich is different. They just drank at least thirteen jars of wine, which is sixty-five taels of silver, sixty-five thousand big money!

In comparison, the food money is not worth mentioning.

"General steward Fang is really a particular person." He Lingchuan knew that Fang Canran was giving him a face in front of the students. He was not hypocritical, and patted his sleeves and was about to leave, and the shopkeeper lowered his voice and said: "General steward Fang also left a note for you."

After that, he handed over a note.

The Tongxin Guards were blocked by He Lingchuan's back, and their hand movements could not be seen clearly.

He Lingchuan quickly took the note and threw it into the storage ring, laughing: "It's disrespectful to refuse it, I'm leaving."

￥￥￥￥￥

That night, the moon was high.

He Lingchuan sneaked to the back mountain of Pianxiang Villa. The tall and dense fir trees grew into a solid tree wall.

He passed through the tree wall and touched a real wall.

This wall is the boundary between Pianxiang Villa and the neighbor's house next door.

There have always been people living next door. The owner's surname is Shi, and he is also an official in the royal court.

Tonight his house is brightly lit, and there are often voices coming out, as if there is a banquet.

There is a small corner tower on the wall, which is built for viewing. He Lingchuan saw someone waving at him inside.

Fang Canran.

He jumped over in two steps and found that there was a low stool in the pavilion.

"Why did Manager Fang invite me to such a place?" It was dark and secluded, and there were few people.

"I'm visiting the Shi family tonight, so I'd like to invite you to chat." Fang Canran nodded his chin towards the main building, and laughter followed the wind, sounding like both the host and the guest were happy. "There's a lot of drinking going on in there, and no one will notice if I'm missing for the time being."

He took out another rectangular mirror: "The heart-piercing mirror has been repaired, and it can be used as usual." After that, he taught He Lingchuan the formula for using it and explained how to use it.

This was one of his apologies to He Lingchuan.

He Lingchuan accepted it, memorized it carefully, and then sat down: "What else do you want to talk about?"

Fang Canran casually set up a barrier to prevent the sound from leaking out: "Torture."

He Lingchuan was stunned, looking him up and down.

The other party came to the door in the middle of the night, and actually wanted to talk about the mountains and swamps of Xushan?

"Are you really that surprised?" Fang Canran said, "Didn't you know what I was going to say?"

He Lingchuan blinked: "What?"

Based on the lack of integrity between the two parties, it is indeed difficult to talk about things. Fang Canran had to make it clear: "Zhu Ju asked me for some information, saying that someone wanted to use it."

"Oh——" He Lingchuan suddenly realized, "It turned out to be you."

In fact, when he received the note from the restaurant owner in the afternoon, He Lingchuan guessed that it was such a thing.

There is no need for much rational analysis, it's intuitive.

Fang Canran has big plans in Lingxu City, and he should be indispensable for such excitement.

"How do you know to find me?" He Lingchuan asked him, "Zhu Ju should not have seen my face."

"I'm not sure." Fang Canran smiled, "But I think I can try to find you directly, after all, you are the only one who mentioned Zhu Ju to me recently. Ha, now it's confirmed?"

The two looked at each other and suddenly laughed.

Okay, intrigue. This time Fang Canran had the upper hand.

Although the two had previously signed a contract with the oath chain, neither of them was willing to tell their mission in Lingxu City. Now Zhu Ju is in the middle, accidentally breaking this window paper.

Fang Canran knew that He Lingchuan came to Lingxu City to cause trouble, and He Lingchuan knew that Fang Canran had secretly contacted with Ju Ju, and had bad intentions, which violated the taboo of the Heavenly Palace.

After confirming the common powerful enemy, the relationship between the two sides suddenly became closer.

Fang Canran put away his smile, "What do you want to do?"

He Lingchuan leaned against the pillar and said leisurely, "I want to give the Heavenly Palace a big gift."

In the past, the destruction of Panlong City was apparently caused by the coalition forces of Xianyou and Baling, but He Lingchuan had long seen that the main force behind the scenes was Beijia.

For him, who inherited the three-piece set of divine bones and Panlong's legacy, this was an old grudge.

When he first entered Lingxu, he came to do practical and good things for the vast number of demons in Beijia, but the gods invaded his sea of ​​consciousness without explanation and came to judge his soul.

For him, this was a new grudge.

It's not that he won't take revenge, but the time has not come yet.

But he will definitely find the most suitable time. Even if the old and new grudges cannot be repaid at once, they must at least be settled in batches!

Let’s start with the first liquidation by sending a big gift to Tiangong.

Fang Canran was puzzled: "Big gift?"

"How about a lively and free Juju?"

Fang Canran looked at him for a long time, confirming that he was not joking, then shook his head: "You are trying to commit suicide."

He understood that this person actually wanted to destroy the spirit gathering formation under the eyes of Tiangong and release the Torch.

This has also been the wish of Diaoju for many years. Although Fang Canran has been on the line with it for a long time, he has never dared to actually implement it.

If he hadn't fought against He Lingchuan, he would probably have doubted whether this kid was really crazy or pretending to be stupid.

He Lingchuan touched his nose.

"How do you want me to cooperate?" Fang Canran asked again, "The Juju is very suspicious. It took me several years to get close to it before I got its clone. You only went there once?"

"Yes." There was a wild cat wandering underneath. He Lingchuan threw a pebble down and the cat ran away. "娨Ju has an old friend. I went there with his token. It was a shortcut."

"Let me say it first, I can cooperate, but you have to handle your big things yourself." Fang Canran raised a finger and shook it, "Don't drag me into the water."

"Don't worry, I only buy things and get information from you. I don't need you to act with me."

It's settled.

"Then let me give you some information first." Fang Canran said, "I got a figure here. In the past seven years, Tiangong has purchased 50,000 kilograms of meat every month."

"Fifty thousand catties?" He Lingchuan was startled, "How many people are there in Tiangong?"

"In addition to a few leaders, there are seventy-two lamp keepers, four hundred divine attendants, nine hundred Heavenly Palace guards, and one thousand eight hundred Xushan guards. In addition, there are eight hundred handymen." Fang Canran was very interested in these numbers. He understood clearly, "The total is less than four thousand and one. The total number fluctuates occasionally, but it's pretty much the same."

"Forty thousand people consume 50,000 kilograms of meat per month?" He Lingchuan counted, "Twelve kilograms per person per month, four taels per day. Ouch, this food is great."

Fang Canran smiled, knowing that he was speaking sarcastically: "Have you ever seen how many servants eat meat every meal? Even the divine attendants and guards do not have such a high quota."

Those more than two thousand troops are just garrison troops. They don't fight or train. How can they consume such a high amount of money?

He Lingchuan remembered that the common people in the capital city of Yuan Kingdom could only eat meat once every thirty days; in comparison, even the people in Lingxu City did not have the opportunity to eat meat every day. To take a step back, even if the Heavenly Palace treats everyone equally and everyone has good food, then if each person counts three taels of meat per day, they will only eat more than 36,000 kilograms per month. Where is the more than 10,000 kilograms?

Fang Canran then added: "And among the meat purchased by Tiangong, many additional hooves, tails and heads of cattle, sheep, donkeys and horses are purchased. Do you think this is normal food?"

"It's not for Ju Ju." The Fire Spirit doesn't like blood food at all, so he can just rule it out. He Lingchuan rubbed his chin and thought for a while, "Maybe some of the monsters in the Shoutian Palace like to chew their heads and claws."

Just like he likes to eat duck neck and chicken feet, the prerequisite is that they are smoked and marinated well.

"But you're right. I'm afraid I bought these leftover materials for other purposes. Maybe the buyers from Tiangong will use inferior ones to pass off as good ones and line their own pockets."

"Anyway, I'll tell you." Fang Canran looked at him and said, "Xu Mountain is heavily defended. In the past, so many experts tried to sneak in and destroy it, but they all failed. Qi Ju knew this, but he still thought you could give it a try... What do you have to rely on?"

This is back to the topic: "The Great Spirit Gathering Formation is the foundation of Xushan Mountain. I have a way to shake it, as long as I find its formation eye."

Fang Canran shook his head: "The formation eye is usually hidden in the void. Unless you walk directly from the Star Reaching Tower to the teleportation formation, no one can find it."

"No, it is hanging over the Xu Mountain now. It only blocks the perception of all sentient beings. Even Juju can't see it."

"you sure?"

"I'm not sure, I have to find a chance to try it." The plan must be carried out step by step, "This is the premise for our action."

"Is the role of Ju Ju important?"

"It's very heavy." He Lingchuan said sternly, "Without its power, I wouldn't be able to conquer the world by myself."

"Its clone isn't here right now, is it?"

He Lingchuan shook his head.

Fang Canran then took out a pair of shackles from his arms and handed them to He Lingchuan:

"The oath chains you asked for are the last ones I have."

How to make Tuoju carry out the agreement to the letter is something that He Lingchuan has been thinking about repeatedly recently, and has made several cases.

But none are as simple and straightforward as the Vow Chain.

"I have seen that Juju has deceived others, and I cannot make the same mistake again. Your choice is wise."
