I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 164 Ticket to the Holy Land

The tense days finally calmed down a little after a monster battle.

Although it was only five days, it was already a rare space for Cao An.

Early that morning, Eunuch Yu came to Tsing Yi Department to congratulate Cao An on the successful completion of his mansion.

Where is the location?

It's right next door.

Don't think it's just a coincidence that there is an empty house. The nights in Shangjiang City are not peaceful. Many civil servants' residences are placed near the official offices to prevent it from being too late.

This place was originally the residence of senior officials from the Ministry of Revenue. They lived well, but they were forced to move out.

There is no other way. Cao Anla stepped down and did not send the prince away with him. This was a great honor. The prince and his party are now trying every means to sell favors.

Wasn't Minister Gong's house confiscated before? You go to live with Minister Gong, give the house to Cao An, and then ask the Ministry of Works to mobilize hundreds of people to work overnight to renovate and repair it. Finally, it's done.

Wei Juan, the father of Wei Juan, who had been victimized in the Nanshan Massacre, was grateful to Cao An and personally inscribed and hung a plaque for Cao An.

A luxurious mansion was finally completed.

There are scattered courtyards, carved beams and painted buildings, rockeries across the garden, ponds and bridges, flowers, plants, pines and plums, which are elegant and pleasant.

Looking inside the room, the tables, chairs, and desks are all made of rosewood, and even the dishes and utensils are all made by famous artists.

The specifications of this mansion are probably not those of a first-grade official, right?

"Master Cao, are you satisfied?" Eunuch Yu personally came here to hand over the matter, which was enough to give Cao An face.

As for the answer, of course it is...

"It's not bad. I want to live in the east wing." Before Cao An even had time to speak, he was taken over by Princess Wen Zhao behind him.

Eunuch Yu was so frightened that he quickly grabbed the girl and taught her again, clearly stating that the princess could not live in an outsider's house, lest it affect the reputation of the royal family.

Seeing the unhappy pouting look on Wen Zhao's face, Cao An was helpless. It didn't matter if you wanted to stay. There were plenty of rooms anyway, so there was nothing he could do if he was stopped now.

Hua Zhi came from behind and became the first hostess to move in. Without the memory of her child, she was now alone. She no longer had the worries she once had and took the job of Cao An's personal maid.

In response to Huorong, this guy also came over and looked around.

Comparing the difficult conditions of the Tsing Yi Department and the luxurious soft beds of Cao Mansion, Ying Changfeng came to live with the package without hesitation, which made Ying Changfeng's eyes slightly murderous.

As for the handymen and maids who sweep the courtyard, just send away all the batch that the prince came with, and let Zhu Xian help find some trustworthy ones. It won't be a big problem.

Of course, there is also a very key member among the residents: Mu Bai.

After realizing that there was no hope, this wise man of the demon clan chose to die in Cao An's arms, and was finally saved by a flowerpot.

The strong vitality of the plant monsters allowed her to recover slightly after only a few days.

Unfortunately, Mu Bai, who has completely lost his cultivation, is now just a six-leaf flower.

She was speechless and unable to transform. There were only six-leaf petals floating in the sunshine in the courtyard. When she saw Cao An coming over, the flowers were folded lightly, as if a woman had made a Wanfu salute and said hello to Cao An.

Cao An, on the other hand, smiled mischievously, took out a watering can and started watering the petals.

Watering can actually be sprinkled directly on the soil, so why do you need to pour it on her petals?
  Mu Bai obviously disliked this feeling of wetness. The two petals were swaying in front of her face, as if she was rejecting him. If he could speak, he would have shouted "No, no" at this moment.

Then, Cao An became even happier.

"Tsk tsk, what a terrible hobby. You didn't tease me when you were in human form, but now that your demonic power has been lost and turned into a flower, you insist on getting wet with it." Behind him, the red fox came teasingly.

"I can't help it. She was too powerful before and I was worried that I would get caught. Now I don't have the burden anymore." Cao An said, pouring another pot of water on her.

Mubai's whole body was soaked, and the petals were swaying coyly, looking very aggrieved.

Red Fox couldn't appreciate this kind of weird fun at all. He leaned against the corridor with his arms folded and asked impatiently: "Why don't you come to see me? What's the matter with me? I'm very busy. If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly." !”

Red Fox is still very arrogant. Although she usually doesn't do anything serious at all, she still works hard to make herself sound busy and like a diligent leader despite her status as a queen.

Cao An didn't reveal anything, and replied with a smile: "I invite you here, naturally I want to talk about something."

Putting down the watering can, Cao An made an invitation gesture towards the study. Red Fox's eyes flashed, an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked in happily.

The study room is very elegantly decorated.

Calligraphy, paintings, books, and the four treasures of the study are all complete.

Although these things may not necessarily be used, they are at least very comfortable to look at. Cao An is now considered a respectable person.

"Yes! How long has it passed? You are no longer an ordinary Qingyi department water embroidery. You actually asked me to come here to discuss alone. You are quite capable." Red Fox sat on the wooden chair with a hanging hanging between his eyebrows. Yin Hong looked at Cao An with a hint of teasing.

With his own private courtyard and a bright future, Cao An's official position is still under the chief and chief ministers at the moment.

But its influence is already equal to that of the Tsing Yi Department.

Perhaps Emperor Wan Jing also had such a plan. The recent rewards and transfer orders were all executed bypassing the Tsing Yi Department.

Obviously, that person wanted to use this method to alienate the relationship between Cao An and the Tsing Yi Department, so as to get closer to the court.

Although Red Fox is usually idle, she is not stupid. In the past meetings in the bureau, everyone talked about everything. Now they were alone in the study to chat in secret. Cao An must have something going on and didn't want the Tsing Yi bureau to get involved.

Could it be that Cao An is really powerful and is ready to leave the Tsing Yi Department?

"It's not as serious as you think. There are just some things that I am not comfortable mentioning in the Tsing Yi Department." Cao An smiled slightly and poured a drink for Red Fox, with his own thoughts in mind.

"Oh? Isn't it convenient to mention it in the office? Do you also want to get me?"

The corner of the red fox's mouth once again evoked a delicate smile, biting her lips with green fingers, looking at Cao An with charming eyes, a vague face flashed across her face, and the enchanting feeling made Cao An's heart tremble.

That must have been the true appearance of the red fox just now. It was indeed a sight that would captivate a country.

My own [Green Grassland Picture] can protect against all demonic illusions, but it still can't stop the charming glance just now.

No wonder the fox is said to be unparalleled in charm, and her appearance is even more alluring than Mu Bai. It is understandable that Emperor Wan Jing would have attacked from behind back then. Whether it was for longevity or for a beautiful woman, capturing this red fox queen would be a sure win. Buy and sell.

It's a pity that Cao An doesn't have that strength for the time being. Red Fox itself has a carefree personality, and it would be the most troublesome if he suddenly behaves charmingly.

Cao An quickly calmed down and continued: "If you want to backtrack, I won't mind, but today I want to discuss cooperation with you, and I have no other intention."

"Nothing else?" Red Fox didn't believe it at all, and sneered: "You do it so blatantly, and you say you don't have anything else?"

Cao An:? ? ?
  "When did I take action?"

"Look at the tea for yourself. It's changed color, and you still say you haven't done anything?"

Red Fox pointed to the cup in front of him, a cup of light orange tea. It did look like the result of poisoning, and it was still very unprofessional.

Cao An rolled his eyes: "This is the milk tea I asked Hua Zhi to make. I saw that you, a fox, don't like to drink tea, so I made it. If you don't want to drink it, forget it."

"Really? Then let me try." Seeing Cao An want to take it back, Red Fox reluctantly grabbed it, stretched out his tongue and licked it gently.

Orange juice, tea, milk, sugar... the preparation was very simple, because Cao An didn't understand the more complicated things, so he just asked Hua Zhi, who was proficient in cooking, to help prepare it for the princess.

"How does it taste?" Cao An asked the first experimental subject.

After finishing the drink, Red Fox narrowed his eyes happily and handed the teacup back: "I don't know, I didn't taste it. Please pour me another cup and try again."

"..."

This fox really knows how to tell lies with his eyes open.

"Okay, stop drinking, let's get down to business first."

"Business? What else can we talk about?" Red Fox didn't understand Cao An's intention.

In her mind, the current business was to find the demon clan's holy land.

If you really can't find it, try to find a way to go to the Taoist Gate and find a suitable puppet body.

Haven't you said all this? What else can be done?
  "Of course it's your next plan after you regain your physical body."

When Red Fox heard this, his face was full of confusion, and he obviously hadn't thought about further issues.

In her opinion, as long as she can return to the physical body, it is already good.

When she returns to her peak and ascends to the position of Demon King again, it will probably be decades later, so why bother?
  "Think about it, this is important."

Cao An insisted again and again, but Red Fox could only tilt his head and think for a moment.

"In the future, if my body can recover, I can go back to be the Demon King, and then come back to seek revenge on the Emperor."

"If I am not strong enough, I will find a place to practice. When I am strong enough, I will become the Demon King, and then I will come back to take revenge."

Cao An:......

Going back and forth with you, your goal in life is to be the demon king and kill the emperor!
  Red Fox nodded: "There is no other way. I have only one way left to practice. Otherwise, I will be in trouble if I return to the Demon Clan or stay here with you."

Regarding the future, Red Fox has a very clear vision.

Returning to the Demon Clan will definitely inevitably lead to a battle, and those who lack strength are seeking death.

When she stayed in Shangjiang City, she would also be spied on by the emperor. When she was in a dilemma, the only way left was to practice in seclusion.

"Then what if you find the Holy Land and regain your physical body, and I help you regain your position as the Demon King? How will you treat us?"

"How to treat it?" Red Fox's confused eyes gradually turned into surprise.

Qiongbi sniffed and looked at Cao An's expectant face: "I smell confidence. Do you have a way to find the Holy Land?"

"Yes! But the price is high, so I need to talk to you." Cao An glanced at the system prompts confidently.

The Tsing Yi Department had been trying hard for ten years but could not find the Holy Land, but his system finally found it.

"Please choose one of the following three rewards:"

"1. Tickets to the Monster Holy Land..."
