Chapter 98: Secret Deliberations
Outside the private room on the third floor of the Zixiao Treasure Pavilion, a soundproof barrier closed the entire room.
The room was filled with the rich aura of the monk Jiedan, Chen Shaozhou sat leisurely on the carved sandalwood chair, took a sip of fragrant tea in his hand, and said, "Shaoqing, how have the twenty-eight pieces of jade shells been repaired?" "
"It is estimated that Zhao Zhaocheng will be able to fully recover in another ten days. "
"The time is about the same," Chen Shaozhou took another sip of tea and said, "How is the information collected in the secret realm?" "
As the eldest brother expected, Jiang Tianyi still had reservations. This time, I asked him to spit out everything he knew, and the Jiang family will not be of much use to us in the future. Chen Shaoqing's eyes were full of coldness: "According to him, the Lezheng Divine Clan is the Northern Hell Clan in the Light and Sound Heaven, and the people in their clan all have ice attribute spirit roots, so the underground palace they built contains a powerful breath of Xuan Ice, and only the Ice Spirit Root cultivators can withstand this breath." Therefore, he guessed that to enter the depths of the underground palace, only the Ice Spirit Root Monk could do it. Their ancestors were only Alien Spirit Root cultivators, so they could only enter the secret land with the help of the jade shell, but they could not enter the depths of the underground palace. "
"Ice Spirit Root Monk? Chen Shaozhou thoughtfully, "This is not a problem. Mingyuan has already been out of the customs, and he will definitely be interested in this kind of secret realm. The question is just how to get him to willingly get what we want for us. I'm going to have to think of a way to do that. "
His fingers tapped lightly on the table, and he muttered for a moment: "Fourth, don't do anything wrong with the Jiang family, give more favors, and keep them to contain the Yin family." "
"It's still the eldest brother who thinks it through. "
"The people of the Gu family have arrived. "
"It's coming fast. Chen Shaoqing snorted coldly.
Chen Shaozhou laughed and said: "The great opportunity, how could they miss it, they have eight pieces of jade shells in their hands, maybe they also know something about the secret realm." I see that they put on a big show, three yuan infant elders, two of them came. A posture that is imperative. "
"What kind of score, what about the Yuanying Monk, whether or not you can enter that place depends on cultivation. "
"But what about when you come out? It is up to the Yuanying Monk to sit in charge and guard the harvest. "
"We're not sure, they're going to think long-term. Are you sure you can get in? Chen Shaoqing said disapprerovingly.
"Even if you don't grasp the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you will try it with all your might. The rest depends on luck. However, the Gu family didn't think they were unlucky. Chen Shaozhou suddenly smiled and said, "Shaoqing, do you know, this time Gu Yuan and Gu Wan are here." Your trouble is here again. Haha"
Chen Shaoqing frowned slightly, and said: "Big brother, both of them are mutant water spirit roots, although they can't be compared to ice spirit roots, but if you try hard, it's not impossible to enter the underground palace, since Gu Fengzun brought them, maybe he already knows something." "
Chen Shaozhou said: "I heard that the ancestors of the Gu family once obtained the secret treasure of the Protoss and passed on the Gu family, and now that I think about it, it is likely to be related to this secret realm." "
"Cangmeng's privy guard came to report, and the Xiao family seems to have some movements, and it is likely that they have also gotten some news. "
"The Gu family is so handy, they can smell it. We need to be careful. Xiao Moyu is greedy and holds grudges. The two of us have already formed a feud over the Jinwu sand mine, and this time he is likely to intervene. Chen Shaozhou said again: "There is still half a month before the fifteenth day of August, this time the matter is very important, if you want to enter the secret land, I must also guard the mountain with a few Supreme Elders, so I want Ziqian to return to Qingyin first, which will be safer." "
"Big brother, Ziqian, this kid, it's time for you to take it back and admonish it well. Otherwise, his good qualifications would really be wasted. "
Chen Shaozhou had a leisurely face just now, but when he heard this, he shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't want to, it's just that his temperament is stubborn and naïve." Discipline is not good if it is heavy, and it is useless if it is light. It's a real headache for me. Keeping him with you is just for you to take in his character. He will see that you are still a little more afraid. "
Chen Shaoqing shook his head and said, "Big brother, you think too highly of me, he has caused me a lot of trouble during his time in Zixiao Gate." Some time ago, I had a fight with that Luo Jianchen. "
"Oh, he beat that kid? Chen Shaozhou asked.
"It's not that he was beaten by Luo Jianchen. Chen Shaoqing said: "I wanted to punish her, but I didn't want Ziqian to intercede for her." "
"And this kind of thing? Chen Shaozhou suddenly became interested, "Isn't that kid timid?" Shaoqing, I almost forgot about that child, have you checked her details? "
Chen Shaoqing said: "I've checked." The name, appearance, age, and spiritual roots are all the same, and she is definitely a woman. It should be the kid from Chen Jiabao. "
Chen Shaozhou said: "This is great news, come, Shaoqing, open the manifest stone mirror, let me take a look at the child." "
Chen Shaoqing stood up, walked to a stone wall as smooth as a mirror, and urged the aura, as the aura emanating from his body became more and more concentrated, on the stone wall, every corner of the Treasure Pavilion gradually appeared, Chen Shaozhou looked at the busy young figure in the mirror, nodded and asked, "Have you checked her physique?" "
"I've checked, it's not a special physique. "
Chen Shaozhou said thoughtfully: "I can escape the ghost cultivator and escape into the inner mountain." After staying in the Uchiyama for a year and returning safely, this child is by no means simple, can you find out any clues? "
"I went to the inner mountain to see it, and the cliff she said did have traces of her, but that cliff was some distance from the secret realm. I wanted to use the soul search technique to investigate, but I was afraid that if I couldn't find out the results, I would ruin the person, and I felt that she was still useful to us, so I cast a shadow chasing spell on her, and I could sense the slightest change around her immediately. "
Chen Shaozhou sighed: "Fourth, you just don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, I really don't understand how Gu Yuan could look down on you." It's a shame that you didn't make a ruthless move. "
He looked at Luo Jianchen in the mirror for a long time, and chuckled: "I haven't seen you for a year, how can this child be so marked, I think if she changes her makeup, she will lose two points even Yingyue, if she uses soul searching to abolish it, wouldn't it be a pity." "
His eyes suddenly lit up, he slapped the table, and said happily: "By the way, it's better to stay and make a deal with Mingyuan." I'm still worried about how to keep this guy who doesn't eat hard and soft. "
A trace of disappointment flashed invisibly on Chen Shaoqing's face and said: "She ruined Mingyuan's face, and together with Ruiyi Zhenren, she made Chen Jiabao restless, Mingyuan is afraid that he will hate her to the core, and when he sees that he has the heart to kill her, will he still have thoughts about her?" Moreover, isn't he going to marry the Gu family?
"What about marriage, it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that this is just what Chen Shaohai meant. I don't know Mingyuan's stinky and hard temper, and he wanted to marry that child with so much fanfare at that time, which shows that he is tempted. A person who has been eccentric for more than 100 years, can he be expected to change his mind in five years? Besides, according to what you just said, his role in this treasure hunt in Heli Mountain is very important, and if we let the Gu family pull him away, our chances of winning will be much less. The presence of this child has helped us a lot. Even if he has lost that mind, we have to get him to work again. "
"Big brother, what do you mean by holding her hostage in exchange with Mingyuan? Chen Shaoqing dissipated his aura and sat back at the table. The image on the stone wall fades.
He shook his head and said: "We are all immortal cultivators, can a woman still be regained over chance, treasures, rights, and immortality?" "
"Whether you will or not, try it and you'll know. Chen Shaozhou said confidently: "Anyway, I will arrange this matter." You don't have to worry about it. "
Chen Shaoqing hesitated and said, "Big brother, there is something I haven't had time to tell you yet, I put Luo Jianchen under the door." Now she is also a member of the Qingyin Privy Council. "
"Oh? Chen Shaozhou was slightly stunned, his expression passed by teasing, and he asked with a smile: "Shaoqing is actually interested in accepting apprentices now." "
Chen Shaoqing smiled noncommittally.
Chen Shaozhou laughed and said, "Shaoqing, don't let Gu Yuan know that she is a woman, otherwise that child will have a hard time." "
"Big brother knows that I have no interest in women, why do you still come to make fun of me. Besides, what does it have to do with her when I take in an apprentice? Chen Shaoqing said unhappily: "I don't think Luo Jianchen is a bully. Thinking of her calm face after beating Chen Ziqian, a smile appeared on the corner of his cold mouth.
Chen Shaozhou glanced at Chen Shaoqing, squinted and smiled: "This kid is smart and beautiful, with good spiritual roots, and he is indeed likable." If it weren't for her as a bargaining chip. I'm really reluctant to give her to Mingyuan. "
Chen Shaoqing said: "I think she can build a foundation right away, if she cultivates well, it shouldn't be a problem to marry Dan in the future." Why didn't the eldest brother keep her around? On Mingyuan's side, we can think of another way to contain it. "
Chen Shaozhou laughed and said, "If Shaoqing wants to come up with a better way? I want to thank you, big brother. He looked solemn and said: "But you have to be careful of the second child during this time, he hates that child to the core, if he knows that she is still alive, he will never give up, he has the support of Elder Taishangrong behind him, and it is really a bit troublesome." I don't want to make a fuss. "
"Although this eldest brother is relieved, I still have a way to deal with the second brother. By the way, the Yin family's side has not been ** recently, I think it is better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots when the matter of Heli Mountain is over. "
"You can do these things yourself. Chen Shaozhou waved his hand and said: "Fourth, you go and find Ziqian first, I will take him back, and I will come back in three days." "
Chen Shaoqing got up and went out, removed the enchantment, went downstairs, walked to the lobby, and saw that the shopkeeper Yuan was sorting things out with the two disciples, and asked, "Senior nephew Yuan, can you see Ziqian?" "
Shopkeeper Yuan hurriedly said: "Just now, I saw Senior Brother Chen pull Senior Nephew Luo out, it's been a while. "
Chen Shaoqing frowned, Chen Ziqian didn't know where to make trouble again, why did he still drag Luo Jianchen? He walked to the door.
Suddenly, a shadow-chasing talisman flew out of his palm, and a chaotic aura came out of the dark red rune paper. His face changed, and he didn't have time to go upstairs, so he took out a messenger and wrote a few words before releasing it.
The figure immediately turned into a ray of light and flew in the direction of Zixiao Gate.
