There are gaps in the road

"Why, you panicked when you saw me?" Ye Chuxiao played with the wine glass in his hand, although he returned to the old place, his mentality was quite different.

At this time, Ye Chuxiao already had the capital to turn the tables. Although he did not act recklessly, it did not mean that he could not do so.

After the little eunuch Ji Xiang panicked, he managed to recover, maintained his expression, and said a little stiffly: "When did the nobleman come back? The slaves don't even know, and they are really dereliction of duty. I just ask the nobleman to hold your hand high, and don't tell the grandpa in the manor. If this is not the case, slaves and servants will inevitably be judged and punished, and the nobles are kind-hearted, so it is impossible to see such a thing."

Looking at Jixiang who lowered his eyebrows and folded his hands, as if he was begging for mercy, Ye Chuxiao smiled and said: "What a cunning and vicious slave, you think you are the servant in the royal manor, so I dare not do anything to you, and I will make this matter into a small one , Has it become a trivial matter? How dare you use this slave's status to suppress me?"

Jixiang still looked weak, lowered his head and said: "Why did you say that? The slaves kindly sent you to the mountain to soak in the hot springs, but they were chased away by the nanny who came from the palace. Although they failed to bring you back, they also It's not the servant's fault. Even if the truth is told to the prince, the servant can justify it."

Involving the eldest princess, the matter really got to King Zhao, and Ye Chuxiao's situation must be more embarrassing than Jixiang's.

Jixiang grasped this point, trying to force Ye Chuxiao to stop at this moment, and stop entanglement.

It's a pity that he found the wrong target in this way.

Ye Chuxiao smiled brighter: "Heh! You still dare to threaten me? Do you think this will catch me?"

"You are nothing, and it's not worth my argument with you. The cause and effect...you can tell me honestly!" As soon as the words fell, the realm of artistic conception directly enveloped Jixiang.

At this time, Ye Chuxiao showed the means of artistic conception on Ji Xiang, which meant that he never thought about letting this little eunuch live.

The field of artistic conception is placed in the same level, and it belongs to an all-round collision of will, aura, ability, and energy.

But when dealing with those monks under the artistic conception, the effect will become more domineering, that is, 'control', controlling everything about the opponent, the lower the level of the person being controlled, the more obvious and stronger the effect of this control will be.

Jixiang has a little bit of cultivation, the level of the peak of Miaojing, and he can be regarded as a small master when he is taken out in the arena.

But for Ye Chuxiao, it wasn't enough.

"Yes...it was explained by the chief manager." Ji Xiang replied a little reluctantly at first, but then he answered smoothly, but his face and eyes were full of fear.

"Chief? Who is the chief in the palace?" Ye Chuxiao asked.

Ye Chuxiao still remembered that there was an old eunuch in the palace, Lord Zhenhai, whose cultivation level seemed to be quite high.

Even suspicion is uncertain, of course it is only suspicion.

As far as Ye Chuxiao's current understanding is concerned, because of the difference in means and accumulation, even if it is the same artistic conception, sometimes the difference is huge.

It is also reasonable for a low-level artistic conception to mistake a high-level artistic conception for indetermination.

After all, there is no fixed standard in Wudingjing. People who stand at a low place look up at a high place, and they will always add a few more layers of filters.

Ye Chuxiao is not an ordinary Yijing either. Back in the Immortal Treasure Realm, he was also a master craftsman who killed a Yijing like a butcher dog. Perhaps after a period of time in the Immortal Treasure Realm, he became indeterminate.

Back to the moment, although I don't know why he became enmity with the chief eunuch in the palace, but everything remains the same.

In Daheng, there are actually only three core contradictions entangled in Ye Chuxiao. The most obvious one is the factional struggle caused by the empress dowager and the emperor. He is a member of Shi Huang and Yuan Shen who have unusual friendships, and may be regarded as a pawn in the struggle for power.Then there is the struggle for heart pills between Ye Chuxiao, Jin Buyi, and Ying Shu as the protagonists, and the unsolved mystery of a hundred years ago involving the late emperor and the morning king Xiao Chi.

These three core contradictions, with Ye Chuxiao's continuous digging, and the "special" clues provided by cheap brother Ye Chuqi, have traces of mixing and blending together, which only becomes more confusing.

As for many other incidents, they are nothing more than specific traces of the development around the core of these contradictions.

If you ignore the small questions and small results of specific events, and look at these as a whole, they are all regarded as a clue.

So there are actually quite a few conclusions that can be drawn.

Ye Chuxiao originally had some floating plans, but now she added details.

Some characters who have met before suddenly have new faces in their minds.

"It's not the Chief Manager in the palace, but the Chief Manager Huang in the hidden court..." When Ji Xiang said this, his face suddenly turned red, as if he was about to burn in the next second.

In fact, if it wasn't for Ye Chuxiao's domain, which cut off the interference of the outside world, he would have been completely ignited.

"I expected to be restricted, suppress it for me!" Ye Chuxiao stretched out his hand and grasped it. Some of the restraints and spells that had been lurking in Ji Xiang's body for a long time were all temporarily suppressed and could not take effect.

To be on the safe side, Ye Chuxiao even threw out the artifact pagoda.

With the blessing of the characteristics of the pagoda, it is more difficult for some external factors within the domain to interfere and invade.

"Talk about Yinting in detail!" Ye Chuxiao knew that he had already grasped a certain key point.

It may not be the core yet, but it is not far from the core. As long as you hold it firmly, you can pull out all the ghosts and ghosts hidden behind it.

"The slaves don't know much. When the late emperor was still there, the slaves were secretly sent to the hidden court to receive training and teaching. They were only trained at the same time. Not only the court servants, but also some official prostitutes from the teaching workshop. Disappointed scholars and down-and-out noble children."

"We are trained in different places, and the content of the teaching is mostly inconsistent. We only occasionally meet in the atrium." Although Jixiang was reluctant, he still spoke truthfully under Ye Chuxiao's control.

"Atrium...! So you still have a place for secret associations?"

"Where is it?" Ye Chuxiao asked.

Jixiang said: "I don't know, the slaves are all sent to the training place after their five senses are sealed off. They only remember the sun there, which sometimes glows blue."

"Tell me about that Chief Manager Huang in the hidden courtyard, have you seen him?" Ye Chuxiao asked again.

Jixiang said: "I haven't seen it before. Chief Manager Huang will contact me through a yellow paper figurine. In fact... the slaves call him Chief Manager Huang just because the paper figurine is yellow. Who is the chief executive, what is his name, and his surname?" What, the slaves don't know at all."

Maybe it's because what shouldn't be revealed is basically revealed. Jixiang's rebellious mood has been extremely weakened, and he even broke the jar and fell, and has a tendency to actively cooperate.

"What else do you know, let's talk about it together!" Ye Chuxiao knew that a "little person" like Jixiang might know something, but what he knew should be extremely limited, and he couldn't think of a direction to continue asking. , simply let him play freely.

Jixiang said: "General Manager Huang will contact the servants to assign tasks in the middle of every month. If the tasks are completed, the servants will light a stick of incense in the room and pray to the Goddess of True Kung Fu."

"Is there another 'Goddess of True Kung Fu'? I never heard that there is such a god in Daheng!" Ye Chuxiao thought to himself.

There are religions in Daheng, and most of them are the orthodoxy established by the Bodhisattvas of Buddha and Taoism, and Taoist monarchs. In remote and wild places, there are also some more ignorant and primitive worships, but these are in the past and do not occupy the mainstream.

The reason is not only because of the natural limitations of the monks, but also because before Tang Sutong sacrificed to the Tao, the defect of the world where Daheng lives is that the higher the level of cultivation, the more indifferent.

People's hearts are indifferent, even to the point where they even look down on their own life and death, and the relationship between relatives and friends is extremely sparse, so how can they care about religious beliefs?
Not to mention the birth of belief in gods because of this.

Therefore, the land of Daheng was originally a desert where faith and gods lived.

The two schools of Buddhism and Taoism can have a place only because they not only provide religious beliefs, but also have the nature of a practice school.

"The task is released in the middle of every month. What is the date of Daheng?" Ye Chuxiao asked, throwing the question to Jixiang.

Jixiang said: "September [-]th, the second year of Qingfeng."

"Huh! Huh?" Ye Chuxiao smiled.

"Isn't the clue here?"

"Bringing me to the Royal Manor is the result of communication between Shi Huang and King Zhao. That is to say, there must be people from Yinting beside Shi Huang and King Zhao, and their status is not low."

"Hey...thinking too much, I feel like I'm going to grow my brain." Ye Chuxiao signaled Ji Xiang to continue.

It's just that most of what Jixiang said next is of no value.

After all, he is just a small person.

Speaking of which, Ye Chuxiao's wave was cheated. If he really went in the direction of the original design, this auspiciousness would definitely be an abandoned son.

As for guarding auspiciousness and squatting down to kill and silence, I'm afraid it won't work.

He knows too little, his status is too low, and he can't operate it remotely, so he is more likely to give up and cut it off.

Ye Chuxiao crouched and guarded him, and the difference between sitting on the sidelines and waiting for a rabbit was really not that big.

Withdrawing the domain that shrouded Ji Xiang, Ji Xiang regained his composure, and suddenly thought of something, before asking Ye Chuxiao for mercy or help.

An invisible poisonous fire quickly burned out from his body, and it was burned to ashes all over the ground in the blink of an eye.

Ye Chuxiao looked at this scene, intercepted a breath of poisonous fire to keep, and then shouted loudly: "Who is it? Who is making mistakes, how dare you kill people in the royal manor?"

With a loud shout, the manor, which seemed to be still sleeping soundly, was awakened in an instant.

The first to wake up were the two dragons.

Dragon King Yuanyi and Dragon Queen Yuanmeng stood up and subconsciously wiped away any dragon saliva that might be on their faces, showing embarrassing expressions.

Afterwards, they all stared at Ye Chuxiao who was shouting.

"Little...Ye Butou, what happened?" Yuan Yan asked Ye Chuxiao.

Although Ye Chuxiao in front of him still looked the same, but for some reason, this small 'wonderful realm' gave Yuan Yan a feeling of fright.

"Have you not sobered up yet?" Yuan Yan thought to himself.

Ye Chuxiao heard the change in Yuan Yan's tone, her heart moved, and she restrained her aura a little more, among which, the few strands of dragon evil attached to it because she had cut the dragon were also quietly expelled.

Yuan Yan looked at Ye Chuxiao again, and the feeling of shock disappeared.

"It really is an illusion! Drinking is really a bad thing."

"This Hanlongxiang...you can't even touch it." Thinking of Yuan Yan, he subconsciously touched the remaining Hanlongxiang.

The temptation of this thing to the Dragon Clan is natural.

Like catnip to kittens.

Snapped!
Yuan Yan's dragon claw was slapped away by Yuan Meng's claw.

The rest of the Hanlongxiang fell into Yuanmeng's hands.

"A servant died, and turned into ashes in front of me."

"I just asked him a few words, and he..." Ye Chuxiao shook his head while speaking.

"When the stone god is caught, I'll explain what happened just now in detail!" Ye Chuxiao said.

Shi Huang and Zhao Wang came very quickly, and after Ye Chuxiao yelled, they also arrived at the scene about 3 minutes later.

Seeing the scorched blackness of the ground, although the expressions of the two of them did not change, Ye Chuxiao had been staring at them for a long time, and still noticed a faint disorder in the breath.

This shows that they are no strangers to this method of death, and it is not the first time they have seen it.

He even knew something about Yin Ting.

"The founder of the Yin Court must be the late emperor... that is, Xiao Chi, the morning king. There is no doubt about it. Only those who are in charge of a country's artifact can quietly set up such an organization in the land of Shenjing."

"It's not uncommon for the emperor to set up a secret organization to work for him. The strange thing is that this organization has not been transferred to the current emperor's hands. Instead, it seems to be 'out of control' and very active... This is very interesting." Ye Chuxiao thought think.

"Morning King Xiao Chi! What the hell are you doing?" Knowing so much, Ye Chuxiao believed that Morning King Xiao Chi would never really be dead and buried in the imperial mausoleum.

It's just that Ye Chuxiao hasn't grasped the key point...Purpose!
What is the purpose of Xiao Chi, the king of the morning, going around and going around in such a big circle?
What else can he gain?
"Ye Yinzhang, what happened?" Shi Huang asked Ye Chuxiao.

Ye Chuxiao repeated what he said before, and then took out a dagger that was as black as ink and looked like a fang.

There was an evil curse power on this dagger, which made the two dragons shudder.

Yuan Yan completely lost his doubts. He was startled when he saw Ye Chuxiao before, either for no reason at all... or because of this dagger.

"This is... a poisonous magic weapon with the dragon blood poison curse. The magic weapon itself is already very extraordinary, and there is also a highly poisonous mixture made of dragon blood as the main material. If a dragon is stabbed at a vital point, even if It's..." Shi Huang glanced at the Dragon King and Dragon Queen, and also felt scared.

"What a vicious thought, this is to catch us all!" Zhao Wang was so angry that his fat body kept trembling, and he looked at Ye Chuxiao with a little more gratitude.

The second dragon was hosted by King Zhao, and the Hanlong incense was ordered by him.

If the second dragon falls because of this, it's not just a problem of Yunmengze's aquarium losing control.

The entire land of eight states around Yunmengze will change from the Daheng granary to the biggest evil place in Daheng because of the loss of the Dragon King to regulate water vapor.

At that time, thousands of miles of starvation will be starved, and disaster victims will be everywhere.

This country is afraid that it will be shaken.

"Thief! What a poisonous heart!"

"Let them be terrified!" Zhao Wang gritted his teeth.

Ye Chuxiao heard this and thought, "Sure enough."

Shi Huang glanced at King Zhao, and said vaguely: "This matter... needs to be discussed in the long run."

"Give this dagger to the old man first, and take it to the famous craftsman of the Ministry of Industry for inspection."

Shi Huang did not doubt that Ye Chuxiao took out this thing, after all, generally speaking, how could a small cultivator of Wonderland have such a powerful magic weapon?

Just check the craftsmanship, you can start with the maker as a clue direction.

After all, in the Land of Great Eternity, the output of such high-quality magic weapons every year is extremely limited.

But the truth is, Ye Chuxiao personally forged this thing on the ship of fortune.

He has absorbed a lot of memory dao rhymes of the master craftsman, except for his lack of hands-on experience, in all aspects, he is a master craftsman with a high profile version.

Creating such a dagger is easy.
