How can a fairy be a villain?

Chapter 35 Brother took me to buy a mask

One thousand and five hundred years ago, Yazhou was a wild land beyond the Great Wall, full of barbaric nomads and exiled prisoners.

It wasn't until the Jiang family from Kyushu came, selected this flat and broad grassland, built a city to formulate laws, and spent more than a hundred years recruiting talents, the city became a climate.

The Department of Health and Dao set up a sub-altar here, and the barren land finally had its own main city. This city blooming in thorns and mud is Xuancheng.

Even today, the Jiang family has been crushed into gravel by time, but it seems that this surname will always be closely related to this city and will never leave.

"Well, this Xuancheng stone wall is so old, it can be regarded as an antique."

Under the city gate, a pair of white hands were caressing the gray rocks of Xuancheng up and down.

Murong Jingyan raised her head, the city wall in front of her was different from the blackened earthen wall of Cuicheng, it was well carved and majestic.

He couldn't help but recall the heartache he felt when he went to the capital when he was a child and looked at the ruins of the ancient city wall.

"...What are you doing?" Zhu Huanan looked puzzled.

"I'm looking at how different this stone is, how it can stand for a thousand years and still be so strong."

"... "

Passers-by at the gate of the city hurriedly passed by, but there were also people who looked this way suspiciously, Zhu Huan'an turned sideways:
"Xuancheng is only a thousand years old. You won't know what the ancient city is until you go to the Kyushu in the Central Plains."

While speaking, he stretched out his hand to scratch on the city wall, knocked off a bit of brick, and threw it to Murong Jingyan: "Hold it in your hand and look slowly, hurry into the city."

Murong Jingyan took the stone, and hastily observed the surrounding area, saying that such destruction of antiquities in the past would require a pair of silver handcuffs as a reward.

Weighing it in his hand twice, Murong Jingyan shook his head, no one in Yazhou can even control murder and arson, so it's nothing to put some wall dust on.

Different from Xuancheng, there are many guardians dressed in brocade clothes at the towers of Xuancheng, who are interrogating.

Before the two of them approached, a swordsman noticed Zhu Huan'an's miraculous appearance in the crowd, stepped forward immediately, and stretched out his hand vigilantly to stop him.

"Which family and faction, why did you come to Xuancheng?"

During the questioning, the man noticed Murong Jingyan behind Zhu Huan'an, was slightly taken aback, and his face softened a little.

Zhu Huan'an always seemed to dislike responding to other people's questions, and just asked rhetorically:

"Is Ye Mengjiang here?"

The swordsman of the guard was obviously stunned, and asked tentatively: "Do you know Ye Daowei?"

The Department of Defense and Dao is an institution that surpasses the imperial dynasty, and has tens of thousands of followers, but its interior is more like a tangled sect, and only the direct line can be called Daowei.

No matter how high or low the Daowei is, his status is far higher than that of the disciples, and in this Yazhou, only Xuancheng has a Daowei directly under him.

Zhu Huan'an nodded, and said casually: "Just tell her, and she will know it's me."

"This…"

Without waiting for the swordsman to react, Zhu Huan'an strode over, and the swordsman did not stop him. When Murong Jingyan passed by, the tip of his nose moved slightly, and he fell into intoxication.

Now that Xuancheng's six-point heaven and earth formation has been deceived, the heavenly masters of other sub-altars cannot support Xuancheng in time, because they lack manpower to deal with the demon and Duotianlou.

Therefore, as long as the foreign monks are innocent, they will not refuse.

Contrary to expectations, you can hear the hustle and bustle before entering Xuancheng.

Murong Jingyan's eyes widened, and there was a lot of traffic in front of her eyes, and vendors lined up on the broad street, yelling and shouting, not only was it not like the imminent disaster implied in Xia Luo's words, it was ten times more lively than Cuicheng.

"Oh, is this the main city?"

Murong Jingyan threw back the gravel in her hand, and was immediately attracted by the bustling scene.

But in such a short moment, many people gathered nearby, all of them were whispering in surprise, and Murong Jingyan also sensed that something was wrong.

Why are these people staring here?

Suddenly, a big hand was placed on Murong Jingyan's face, and he waved it casually.

"How long are you going to stand here?"

Zhu Huanan hurriedly dragged Murong Jingyan to a small shop beside him, turned around and looked at Murong Jingyan and said in a deep voice:

"Do you know how much unnecessary trouble you will bring when you grow up like this?"

"what?"

Murong Jingyan touched her face subconsciously, and only then did she realize something.

I borrowed a mask from Qin Tianzhu before, although it was to cover up his face, but it was more to prevent this woman's face from being too conspicuous in the brothel.

In the rest of the time, as the owner of Yunli County, King Xiaoquan of Cuicheng Temple is quite famous, but there is no one who is so blind to provoke him.

But... Xuancheng is not comparable to Cuicheng, and no one here recognizes her identity as Yunli princess.

"Then what should I do, brother?"

Murong Jingyan also noticed that a lot of onlookers had gathered outside the store, so she hurriedly walked behind Zhu Huan'an and asked in a low voice.

Zhu Huanan glanced at the people outside, thought for a while and said:
"I'll take you to buy a mask."

Murong Jingyan immediately raised her head when she heard the words, and just knocked Zhu Huan'an's chin impartially. She covered her head and moved aside: "Aren't masks useless, senior brother, you can see my face through the mask!"

Zhu Huan'an rested her chin, as if surprised that Murong Jingyan's head was so hard.

"My eyes are gifted by the blood of my ancestors. They can see through everything and perceive the subtleties. Unless ordinary monks reach the six levels of heaven and awaken their spiritual consciousness, it is impossible to peek behind your mask!"

"So that's how it is." Murong Jingyan was enlightened immediately.

"Walk."

Zhu Huanan walked towards the shop, and the two of them quickly walked from the back door of the shop to the alley without stopping.

Soon, the alley led to a secluded alley. There were obviously fewer pedestrians here. Most of the people sitting on the street in twos and threes were wearing weapons and talking with frowning faces.

Zhu Huan'an went directly to a tower, and Murong Jingyan quickly covered her face and followed, not daring to see anyone at all.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Zhu?"

There were no individual visitors in the Que Building, only a shabby old man on the second floor was cleaning antique jade wares. He was stunned when he saw Zhu Huan'an, and then raised his hand with a smile:

"Young Master Zhu left Xuancheng suddenly, I thought you had returned to Kyushu."

Murong Jingyan looked at this ancient building, although the facade was inconspicuous, but as soon as she went up to the second floor, she felt a strange feeling, as if the things placed here were not ordinary things, but had an indescribable aura.

For example, the broken blade in the corner and the long gun hanging on the wall. Whenever you look at it twice, you will feel chills in your body, as if you are facing an enemy.

Zhu Huan'an looked around, and finally stepped forward slowly and asked straight to the point: "You have a mask for sale."

The old man narrowed his eyes, and wiped his hands with a handkerchief: "Of course there are."

"Master Zhu himself?"

Zhu Huan turned his head and motioned for Murong Jingyan, who was peeking everywhere behind him, to come over.

Seeing this, Murong Jingyan took two steps forward, slightly nodded at the boss with protective eyes.

The old man showed astonishment, and slowly stuffed the handkerchief into his cuff, nodded and said: "Wow, wow, what a smart doll, who is this?"

Zhu Huanan frowned: "No need to ask, it has nothing to do with you."

"Come with me."

The old man turned around and walked to the wall. With the rhythmic stepping of his feet, a door opened on the wall in front of him, and he made a gesture of please.

"Old rules, whoever picks the treasure will come in with the old man."

After all, the old man walked into the secret room by himself.

Murong Jingyan was about to follow, when Zhu Huan'an suddenly raised his hand to put on his shoulder, and ordered:

"After entering, you only need to choose the treasures. Although the items here are not complete, they are still spiritual treasures. Even if Tianfeng hits them casually, it will be difficult to break them."

"So powerful??" Murong Jingyan hesitated to speak, and whispered:

"By the way, senior brother, I don't think the things here are cheap. You had to rush out of the city at that time, but junior sister didn't have half a dime on her."

"It's okay, let me take credit first."

"???"

Murong Jingyan suddenly tilted her head, thinking that Zhu Huan'an, as a senior brother, would pay the bill with arrogance, and for a long time he was as hard-headed as herself.

Not a family, not into a sect.

Forget it, when I get back to Duotian Building, I'm afraid I won't have any rice, and I don't need to take advantage of it.

Zhu Huan'an looked towards the entrance of the secret room, and continued:

"Besides, no matter what this person says, you should ignore it, remember."

"Senior brother, you might as well say it clearly." Murong Jingyan had a premonition that something was wrong.

Hey, does this boss have some incredible background?
Zhu Huan'an let go of Murong Jingyan's shoulders, and said flatly, "It's nothing, old fellow."

"It's the sub-rudder master of Duotianlou."
