Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 188 Plan
Mother Lu's idea was approved, and she volunteered to go back to Chang'an City to arrange the whole plan, and Li Lijun agreed.

Early the next morning, the weather cleared up temporarily. Li Lijun asked the system to make a weather forecast based on the information collected by the drone. Knowing that there would be no heavy rain within two days, he sent Lin Jiulang away from Saga Mountain Bieye with confidence, and returned to Over the top, he packed the luggage for Nanny Lu.

When Li Lijun lived in Saga Mountain Bieye, he did not cut off contact with the Sui Palace. Every once in a while, someone would send letters back to say hello to his grandfather Sui Wang and grandmother Dou Wangfu.She did not write letters to her father Li Dai alone, but she always greeted him in her letters to King Sui, and she did enough courtesy to avoid anyone picking on him.Now that she sent Nanny Lu back to the Sui Palace to handle errands, no one would be suspicious.

The weather has just turned cold, and from autumn to winter, the Sui Palace will make new winter clothes for every member of the family as usual.But Li Lijun has only added new clothes made for her by the people around her this winter, and she has not yet gotten a share from the Duke of the Sui Dynasty.Nanny Lu happened to go back to help her receive this benefit, and by the way, she asked for the money, food, charcoal subsidies for the last quarter of this year and the wages of the attendants around her.Ding Wulang will also send a few guards to protect Nanny Lu when he goes to Beijing, so that they will have the opportunity to go home and visit relatives, and he will also receive the brothers' salaries along the way.Although they have no shortage of food and clothing in Bieye and live a good life, there is no reason to give up what they deserve.

Nanny Lu didn't go back empty-handed either.She brought with her a large amount of dried vegetables from Bieye in Saga Mountain, dried mushrooms, fungus and other mountain products from the forest farm, as well as two pairs of pheasants and a pair of yellow sheep. New pieces of silk and satin were assembled into four large carts, and they returned to the Sui Palace with great momentum, claiming that this was a winter festival for the fourth wife Li Lijun to honor her grandparents and father.

Compared with the quarterly subsidy of the Sui Palace when the heir concubine Chen was alive, this ritual is probably not even one-third.But Li Lijun is just a little girl, and she is keeping filial piety, so asking her to spend a lot of money to give gifts to the elders is too much.This kind of gift is already very decent, anyone who comes will praise Fourth Lady for her filial piety.As for those who whispered that she was not filial in private, could they give such a heavy gift to their elders?If you can't do it, what face do you have to arrange for others? !
This gift, Li Lijun told Madam Lu to be handed over to Concubine Dou, after all, this step-grandmother is now in charge of the Sui Palace.As for how she will distribute the things in this gift, Li Lijun, as a junior, doesn't have to worry about who gets more and who gets less in the Sui Palace.She trusted her grandmother completely, and had no intention of preparing any gifts for her father or siblings alone.

Nanny Lu sent things back, and then brought things back, and during the period, she also had to check Zhao Chenji's accounts. Adding up the back and forth, it is normal to stay in Chang'an City for ten and a half months.Such a long time is enough for her to dig a hole for the Yang family.Li Lijun also asked her to bring enough money so that she would not have enough money to spend when doing errands.

Nanny Lu led people away from Saga Mountain Bieye in such high spirits and confidence, and also took Shi Qing away for the convenience of inquiring information.Shi Qing learned that Nanny Lu planned to rest at Liujiazhuang in Jingyang tonight, thinking of visiting the Rat King, so she actively packed her luggage and set off with Nanny Lu.

After they left, everyone in Bieye continued to live a peaceful and comfortable life.Li Lijun would occasionally go to her mother's tomb to worship, but every time she looked at the top of the mountain from her mother's cemetery, thinking that the toad still occupied Sitai Peak, she couldn't let go of her hands and feet to go up the mountain to practice swordsmanship, and she always felt uncomfortable. energy.

As the full moon is getting closer day by day, but the meteor shower in the night sky has never appeared again, Li Lijun thought to himself that he really needs to start preparing for the plan to eradicate the toad. Take action now.

Now living in the country, she would occasionally hear the guards and attendants around her discuss the gossip from the surrounding countryside and villages.It is said that two people disappeared from a village at the foot of Ertai Mountain. The witnesses suspected that they saw some huge beast flying past and swept the two people away.

Li Lijun is not sure whether this so-called huge beast is the man-eating toad on Sitai Mountain, but there should be no other powerful monsters in the surrounding area.She has set up protective arrays at the foot of Wutai, Sitai, and Santai Mountains. In addition to providing physical protection, it will also allow foreign enemies to subconsciously ignore the creatures in the formations and prevent them from entering.She was worried that the toad might have skipped the humans under the three closest mountains and harmed the neighboring mountain villages.If this is the case, then she will get rid of it sooner, and the people nearby will feel at ease sooner.

It's just... the weather is so cold now, and the highest temperature has dropped below ten degrees.According to common sense, the toad should also start hibernating, right?Could it be that this toad has evolved into a monster, and even changed its own habits?
If the toad won't hibernate, then her original plan will have to be revised.She originally wanted to kill the hibernating toad directly, which would save time and effort, but how could everything in the world go as she wished?She had already taken advantage of it once when she killed the monster snake.When dealing with gophers, the opponent didn't have much skill, and they quickly obeyed.As for the demon way?If his cultivation base is not high, at most he is a human being who understands evil methods, so that is nothing to worry about.Now, Li Lijun dare not hope to take shortcuts again this time, let's fight Toad honestly!

It's not like she hasn't fought anyone before!
Since it was time to fight the enemy, Li Lijun had to make preparations in advance.She had taken a sample of toad venom from the corpse of the monster snake before, analyzed its composition, and studied the method of detoxification.Now she can't say that she has developed a specific antidote, but she can come up with a liquid medicine that neutralizes most of its toxins, which can ensure that even if she is poisoned by the toad, her life will not be in danger.Afterwards, she slowly recuperated, and it didn't take long for the remaining poison to be eliminated.

At the same time, she rummaged through her storage space and found a close-fitting body armor and a pair of small leather boots that can be used above the fifth level of Qi refining, which can increase her safety and mobility in battle flexibility.She also drew a lot of protective spells, not to mention other invisibility charms, breath-holding charms and the like.

She reactivated the little black crane and the little paper figurine who were ambushing outside the cave where the toad was hiding earlier to collect information about the other party.She found that the toad should have started to hibernate, but it started a little later than ordinary toads.In recent days, she noticed that Toad no longer went to the top of the mountain to practice every night, and there was no usual movement in the cave.She ventured to let the little paper figurine sneak into the cave to take a closer look, and found that there was no toad inside, but in the space filled with water and mist, she could vaguely see that the ground in a certain corner seemed to have been turned over, which was more dense than other surrounding ground. Ups and downs.

In another corner, there were some fragments of human clothing, which might belong to the two missing villagers.

Could it be... that toad hid under the land after eating and drinking, and started its belated hibernation?

Toads in hibernation should have less responsiveness and mobility than usual.

If so...

Li Lijun immediately asked the system to estimate the weather for the next ten days, thinking about which day would be more beneficial to her plan to eliminate demons.
