By the time he came out of the shower, the battle was over, and he didn't care what the outcome of the battle was, so he fell asleep in less than a minute, his eyes closed, and he fell asleep in less than a minute.

Outside the shop, the aftermath of the battle was still in the air, and the guards were taking a serious look at the scene, but they found nothing but a few damaged floors and broken tiles.

In the Kyoto grove, a man in black who covered his chest appeared in the forest, his breath was a little chaotic, blood continued to gush out of his chest covered with one hand, and he looked seriously injured, his clothes were very messy, in addition to the wound on his chest, there were several wounds on his body.

With a black scarf over his face, and the only eye that showed his head was gloomy and angry, with a hint of imperceptible apprehension, he stood still in the woods and turned his head to look behind him.

The grove was pitch black, and the moon in the sky exuded a pale blue light, which made the grove look gloomy, and occasionally a gust of wind blew, and the timid ones had already been frightened to the point that their hairs stood up.

The man in black seemed to be accustomed to it, easily and skillfully walked around the woods, and sometimes hit the tree directly, and the strange thing was that he actually seemed to have a "wall piercing technique", and passed through the tree, and when he passed through, the tree returned to its original state, and there was no change at all.

After a few laps around the forest in what seemed to be irregular, he took a stand under a tree that was slightly larger than the surrounding trees, pulled out a black wooden token from his bosom, and imprinted it on the trunk.

"Boom-click-" Behind the tree, somewhere on the ground, it suddenly cracked in it and slid away to both sides, revealing an underground staircase.

The man in black moved, walked into this passage, the passage was down, the man walked in step by step, after he entered, the door of the passage immediately closed the old man, leaving no traces.

After the door closed, the torches embedded in the walls on both sides of the underground passage automatically ignited flames, and the man walked quickly towards the inside of the passage, where the passage was crooked, like countless passages stacked on top of each other, intertwined into an underground labyrinth.

Along the way, the man also met several black-clothed people dressed like him, but whether it was the man or the black-clothed people he met, they all ignored each other, let alone say hello, but they didn't even give a look.

After turning a few corners, the man appeared in front of a stone chamber door, the door of which was closed, and on either side of the stone door stood two men in black guarding the stone chamber, and there was no one else except for the two.

When the man came to the door of the stone room, he suddenly knelt on his knees, lowered his head and said, "My subordinates have been derelict in their duties and have not completed their tasks!"

His voice echoed through the passage, and his tone was very respectful, respectful with fear.

After a while, no one in the stone chamber responded, and even the two guards in black standing at the door were still motionless like sculptures, without the slightest reaction.

There was no response, the man just knelt on the ground motionless, his head lowered, and even though the wound on his chest was bleeding, he didn't see him frown.

I don't know how long it took, but the loss of blood made the man's face more and more pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he still didn't move.

"Mission failed?" Suddenly, an inaudible voice came from the stone chamber.

"Yes. ”

"Rubbish!"

Hearing this voice, the kneeling man was shocked, and his lowered head was even lowered.

"In that case, let's come in and make up for it. The voice in the stone chamber sounded again, and the voice was always faint, so that people could not hear the slightest emotion.

The door of the stone room suddenly opened, and the green light shone on the man's body from the door, and the man couldn't help but squint his eyes, only seeing the burning dark green flame, and the back of the majestic man sitting with his back to the door.

Before he could react, a powerful suction force came from the stone chamber, sucking the kneeling man into the stone chamber.

"Ahh

However, hearing the death-threatening screams of the man in black, the two gatekeepers standing by the door did not have a trace of fluctuation in their eyes, only deep numbness and coldness, and the expression on their faces was not moved, only deep calm.

Looking in from the open door, you can see that the stone chamber is very empty, the whole stone chamber is nearly 100 square meters, and there are nine simple oil lamps hanging on the wall, and the oil lamps are lit with dark green flames.

There was nothing in the stone chamber, only a huge circular pit had been carved out of the middle ground, which occupied almost half of the area of the stone chamber, and the intricate runes of the painters on the edge were emitting a faint halo at this time, and the pit was burning with a dark green fire.

A man sat cross-legged on the edge of the pit with his back to the gate, facing the raging flames, chains of black runes extending from under the nine oil lamps on the wall, cutting across the wall and the ground, and into the pit in the middle.

"It's your privilege to be a ray of nourishment. The cross-legged man muttered, looking at the fire burning in the pit.

Vaguely, it could be seen that under the green flame, there was no residue left of the body of the man in black burned by the green flame, and in the middle of the flame, a little dark green light cluster, the color changed from light green to dark.

"After the order, no one is allowed to disturb me, and it is claimed that I am in retreat. The man in the stone chamber said in a cold voice.

"Yes. The two gatekeepers at the door immediately responded.

"Boom-" The man waved his hand with his back to the door, and the open stone door closed automatically.

Three days later, a strange wave of energy came out of the stone chamber, spreading in all directions, and the gatekeepers standing on both sides of the stone gate instinctively sensed the danger after feeling this fluctuation, and their faces changed.

However, before the two of them could react, strange fluctuations poured into their bodies.

"Bang-" There was an explosion, and in the blink of an eye, the bodies of the two suddenly swelled and exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist and dissipating into the air.

The energy fluctuations continued unabated, with the stone chamber as the center, the strange fluctuations spread to the surroundings with an unstoppable trend, and where the fluctuations passed, all life forms turned into blood mist, not even an ant or a bug was spared.

"It's successful, is this a first-line Gu......" The man in the stone room had already stood up at some point, his eyes staring excitedly at the "first-line sky" suspended above the big pit!

The outer ring of his body was clasped upside down with a transparent protective shield, blocking the strange energy fluctuations again and again.

Finally, after most of the black-clothed people in the tunnel turned into blood mist, the strange fluctuations gradually stopped spreading, and those who resisted the fluctuations waited vigilantly for a moment, and only after confirming that they were safe did they remove the Yuan Force shield.

"Oh my God. The man in the stone room put away the protective shield outside his body and stretched out his right hand towards the "First Line of Heaven" in front of him, with Yuan Li condensed in his palm.

In mid-air, a black velvet as thin as a hair fluttered into his hand.

The man carefully wrapped this "line of heaven" that was only one finger long with Yuan Li, and then put it into a small bamboo tube, which was not big, only one finger wide and one finger long.

Cover the lid of the bamboo tube, looking at the bamboo tube, the man's expression could not hide his excitement, years of dedication, years of experiments, finally let him practice a "line of sky"!

With a "glimmer of heaven", it means that his plan can be implemented, and thinking that the plan that has been planned for many years is about to succeed, he finally couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.

"Your Excellency. Outside the stone gate, there was a voice with a hint of nervousness and hesitation.

The man stopped laughing, put away the bamboo tube in his hand, turned around and opened the stone door and walked out.

There was a man in black standing at the door, and when he saw the stone door open and the man came out, the man in black said respectfully: "My lord, the emperor summoned you to the palace two days ago, and was sent away by his subordinates on the grounds that you were in retreat and cultivation.

"Your Majesty?" the man raised his eyebrows, his appearance looked like a Confucian student, gentle and elegant, his eyes were very calm, and it was impossible to guess what he really thought in his heart.

"I see. The man bowed his head, put his hands behind his back, walked around the subordinate, and walked out of a passage on the left, and after turning a few corners, he came to the end of the passage, and knocked twice regularly on a certain part of the wall, and a stone door appeared on the wall, and the stone door slid open in both directions.

Behind the stone door is a study, the man walked into the study, the stone door behind him closed, and a bookcase blocked the stone door from left to right.

He straightened his robe and opened the door of the study, where two housekeepers stood guarding the door, and at this time they were stopping a father-in-law in a eunuch suit.

The father-in-law's face was a little ugly, with a hint of anxiety and a hint of annoyance and embarrassment in his eyes.

Seeing the man open the door and walk out, the father-in-law looked relieved, and hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, you can come out, the emperor asked the servants to summon you into the palace!"

The Imperial Study

"The minister sees the emperor, long live the emperor!" Zhou Cheng bowed.

"Prime Minister, I sent someone to summon you two days ago, and you have only arrived now, do you still have my presence in your eyes?!" the emperor threw the pen in his hand on the table and said with a gloomy face.

The Prime Minister said unhurriedly: "The minister is panicked, when the emperor sent someone, the minister was in retreat and cultivation, and the retreat ended today. ”

The emperor did not speak, his eyes stared sharply at the prime minister who was standing with his hands arched, and was stared at by such a gaze, the prime minister was extremely calm and did not show any panic.

"If you have a reason, I won't care about it, and I won't make an example!" the emperor snorted coldly, his face softened, but his eyes became more and more gloomy.

"Your Majesty, Emperor. Prime Minister Zhou Sheng said.

"Let's see, what do you think of this border success. The Emperor casually pointed to a book on the table.

Zhou Sheng stepped forward, came to the desk, picked up the book and read it.

Soon, he closed the fold and said, "I think that this good news is too ......."

Zhou Sheng told his analysis seriously, his insights were very incisive, almost to the point, and gradually the emperor listened more and more seriously, and even Gonggong Chen, who was standing on the side, listened with a solemn expression.

Therefore, neither of them noticed that the prime minister was holding an open bamboo tube in his hand under his sleeve, and he didn't notice that a hair-like velvet thread was sticking to the ground and slowly drifting towards the emperor behind the desk......

Delicious little shop

Qin Xiu looked at the man in the hall who was a little speechless, originally he was cooking in the kitchen, but he noticed a commotion coming from outside the kitchen, and there were people shouting to see the boss.

At first, he didn't pay attention to it, after all, even if someone made trouble, it would be solved by Xiao Yi, and sure enough, it didn't take long for the noise to disappear all of a sudden, and he didn't care.

But when he finished all the dishes ordered by the customers, the moment he opened the kitchen door, he frowned violently.

A pungent smell of perfume overshadowed the smell of vegetables in the shop, penetrating his nostrils with an unstoppable trend.

He couldn't help but hold his breath, raised his eyes and looked down the hall, and found that there were still many customers in the store, and those customers who had finished eating had not left, and were still sitting in the hall, talking to each other, not looking at someone in the hall.

Qin Xiu raised his eyes and looked at the man, that is, the emanation of the "fragrance".

It was a man like a rich boy, with a smooth and fair face, thick eyebrows, a high nose, a hint of frivolity at the corners of his mouth, and a hint of a funny look in his black eyes.

This person is very handsome, but he is too sassy, a big man still sprays so many perfumes, or is it scented with flowers, how much of a sissy is this?! Qin Xiu complained silently after looking at it.

And while he was looking at the other party, the other party was also looking at him, the "Sao Bao" man scanned Qin Xiu up and down with sharp eyes, and when he felt that there was no Yuan Force fluctuation in his body, the man's eyes couldn't help but show a trace of surprise.

And after everyone came out of Qin Xiu, Qin Shushu turned their eyes to him.

"Boss Qin. Qin Yudie's eyes lit up when she saw Qin Xiu, glanced at the man who was "sassy", and called out.

"You are the owner of this shop?" Before Qin Xiu could respond, the man who was "sassy" took the lead in speaking.

"Yes. Qin Xiu replied lightly, he had some doubts in his heart, and he couldn't understand what the situation was now, the commotion just now must have been caused by this man.

In other words, this man is a little familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere......

"In other words, you are the master of General Lan?!" the man asked in an unkind tone.
