After a while, Lin Yan understood what Qianxun Moon meant, "You mean, our destination this time is actually in this Cuiming Mountain Villa!"
But this is also something he couldn't have imagined in advance, originally he thought that the secret would be in the mountains and forests, but he didn't expect it to be in this mountain villa, he was surprised.
"That's right!" Chihiro Moon showed a smug smile, the corners of her pink mouth turned up slightly, and at the same time, her waist twisted, and while she turned around, she suddenly raised her hand and pointed to a strange attic, "See, that Agarwood Pavilion is the entrance to the secret!"
While she spoke, she inadvertently revealed a hint of charm, which was simply charming and natural, but fortunately, Lin Yan and the three of them paid attention to the Agarwood Pavilion she was referring to, and they didn't pay too much attention to her, so naturally they were not fascinated by her.
In fact, she didn't deliberately seduce Lin Yan and the others, but she was born with a talent that would be revealed if she didn't pay attention to it.
Lin Yan and the three of them all stared at the Agarwood Pavilion carefully, saying that it was quite strange because it was inconspicuous compared to the other buildings here, it was only two stories high, there were no windows, and the bare exterior wall was not decorated.
Only a closed stone door makes it possible to barely think of it as a building with an interior space, and not to be mistaken for a strange stone platform made of stones.
"Isn't it inconspicuous and a little disappointing?" Chihiro looked back at Lin Yan.
"No! I just feel very curious, to be honest, it's also unexpected!" Lin Yan shook his head slightly, and then changed his words, "In this mountain villa, there should be many masters!"
"That's nature! If there weren't enough people to guard it, this place would have been exposed a long time ago!" Chihiro didn't shy away from it.
"I have a question for you?" Lin Yan suddenly stared at Qianxun Yue, his eyes full of scrutiny.
"Are you a little curious, or have you already guessed something?" Qianxunyue did not avoid Lin Yan's gaze at all, and looked at him at each other, and there was a bit of mystery in his tone, "And you are even more powerful than I imagined!"
"In that case, then please tell the truth! Is this the secret of the legendary Chiba Imperial Family, and you are also closely related to the Chiba Imperial Family?" Lin Yan finally spoke, in fact, he had already had this question, but he had never mentioned it to Chihiro Yue.
As he mentioned the "Chiba Imperial Family", the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Liang Fengjin and Yang Qi both looked at Lin Yan and Qianxunyue in shock, obviously they didn't expect that this place would be the secret treasure left by the legendary Chiba Imperial Family, it can be said that this information really shocked them.
And Qi Guanxiong next to him was already waiting for him, staring at Lin Yan and Liang Fengjin nervously, as if he would make a move at any time.
Qianxunyue waved her hand, signaling him not to act rashly, and then looked at Lin Yan, and smiled faintly, looking very relaxed, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you! Actually, I also wanted to find out to you earlier, but there has been no suitable opportunity, and the other place is not suitable." ”
At the auction in Qingluo City, when the black gold jade slip appeared, the auctioneer tried his best to exaggerate it, especially when it mentioned the secret treasure of the Chiba royal family, and Qianxunyue also understood that Lin Yan would think of this sooner or later.
Lin Yan also looked very relaxed, he didn't mean to turn his face at all, he looked at Qianxun Yue and nodded, "What you said is good, there is indeed no appropriate opportunity, but the main thing is the lack of good mutual trust between us." ”
After all, the two sides are only a cooperative relationship, and although there is no conflict, it is far from the point of mutual trust. Both sides know this.
"Since that's the case, let's take this opportunity to communicate thoroughly and freely, okay?" Chihiro smiled too, her eyes full of anticipation.
"That's what I mean!" Lin Yan had no reason to object, and then spread his hands, "But this is obviously not the place to speak!"
"Then please come with me!" Chihiro Yue showed a satisfied smile, then beckoned, turned around and walked towards a tower, and Lin Yan and the others followed without hesitation......

The sky was still overcast, dark clouds covered the entire forest, and in a large clearing, a small town was like a lonely island in the middle of the forest.
This is Bluestone Town.
Although the town is not big, due to the large number of adventurers gathered for many years, it is very lively, restaurants, inns, shops gathered, and even there is no shortage of brothels.
At this moment, in a rather famous tavern, several young men and women were sitting around a table, drinking and eating and chatting.
Their clothes are very different from ordinary adventurers, and the temperament on their bodies is also obviously different, all of them are either rich or expensive, and at a glance you know that they must be from a big sect.
"This damn ghost weather is so annoying, I don't know when it's a head!" whined a short-haired young man, wearing a black robe embroidered with a flame symbol on his chest, and his appearance was not bad, with a straight nose and a wide mouth, and a dignified appearance.
If Lin Yan was here, he would recognize that this person was Ke Yi.
Next to Ke Yi was Mu Guan, who was also Lin Yan's acquaintance, not only that, but even Cong Wudong and Yingluo were also impressively listed, and of course, the girl in the blue dress who had been with them all the time.
However, Mu Zhilan, who was dressed as a man, did not appear for some reason, but there was one more young and handsome young man, and he was none other than Ming Lanwei!
In addition, the figures of Luochen and Xianghua are also impressively listed, but Lian Jue, Jieqiong and Yuan Mo are missing, it can be said that in addition to the three of them, Lin Yan's opponents are all present.
"Brother Ke, it seems that you are in a hurry, do you want to get the legendary Blue Star Begonia immediately?" Cong Wudong looked at Ke Yi with a smile, and there was not much friendship in his tone, but there was no obvious malice.
"As soon as we came here, we were bound by this ghost weather, do you think I can't be in a hurry?" Ke Yi's face was the same as the weather, it was simply gloomy and terrifying, "If it weren't for the Blue Star Begonia, I Ke Yi wouldn't have come to this kind of ghost place!"
"Brother Ke, don't be impatient!" Mu Guan also opened his mouth to comfort, "We are all for the Blue Star Begonia, but who would have thought that Tiangong would be so unbeautiful, if he ventured into the mountains and forests in this rainy weather, I am afraid that something bad will happen!"
"Yes, what Senior Brother Mu said is reasonable, not only us, but even those adventurers rarely go out, and most of them are temporarily resting, so it can be seen that everyone understands this truth!" Ming Lanwei lost no time in answering.
After learning that this Senior Brother Mu was actually the son of the sect master of the Yunding Sect, he stuck to others like a plaster, almost never leaving, of course, he was also very self-aware, knowing that he was just an insignificant outer disciple, and he was not qualified to associate with Mu Guan at all, so he positioned himself as Mu Guan's lackey.
And he is also very happy to be Mu Guan's lackey, this is a godsend for him, if he doesn't take advantage of the opportunity, he will be sorry for himself.
It's just that he hasn't been Mu Guan's lackey for a long time, and he hasn't fully adapted to this role, for example, he is not qualified to speak at all on such occasions.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Ke Yi scolded angrily: "What are you, and you have a part in speaking here?"
He is still relatively polite, if he doesn't look at Mu Guan's face, I'm afraid that a slap will slap Ming Lanwei.
Mu Guan also glanced at Ming Lanwei angrily, and reprimanded sharply: "Step aside, don't talk nonsense!"
Ming Lanwei also showed a look of fear, and his pupils suddenly dilated!
"Yes, Senior Brother Mu!" answered, and immediately got up and stepped aside, lowering his eyebrows and not daring to look at the others.
However, he hated Ke Yi at the moment, and even hated Mu Guan together, but he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he could only roar in his heart: I'm less angry, Ke Yi, Ke Yi! And you Mu Guan, what are you all like, it's just that you were born in a big sect, what's the big deal, one day, I will trample you under my feet!
But no one will sympathize with the way he is treated, because that's the rule, and everyone here is not much higher than him, and to everyone else, he's just a lowly bug, far from being on their footing.
This is the way of the world! Without strength and status, it is nothing! Not to mention dignity!
And since he gave up his dignity and chose to be a servant, he must be like a servant, and if the master does not let him speak, he is dumb, and he will be punished for opening his mouth indiscriminately!
This incident did not cause unpleasantness to everyone, and everyone started chatting with you and me again......
After some arguments, everyone decided to go into the forest before the sun set the next day to look for the legendary blue star begonia, because they were all very eager to get it.
————
At the same time, in Cuiming Villa, there was a spacious and bright hall inside an ordinary-looking tower, where Lin Yan and Qianxunyue were talking, and Liang Fengjin, Yang Qi, and Qi Guanxiong were also present.
"I really didn't expect that the descendants of the Chiba royal family are still in the world, and right in front of me, it's really embarrassing to say!" Lin Yan took a sip of hot tea, and his tone seemed quite touching.
"Do you want to ask, why did the Chiba Dynasty suddenly fall a thousand years ago, and then where did it hide?" Chihiro just smiled faintly, but her tone was slightly cold.
"If you're willing to say it, of course I don't mind hearing it!" Lin Yan shrugged his shoulders, "Of course, if you don't want to say it at all, I won't force it." ”
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that even I don't know much about myself, and there's nothing worth telling you at all!" Chihiro Tsuki's face darkened slightly, obviously very sad about the sudden fall of the imperial dynasty a thousand years ago.
"Then let's not talk about this topic!" Lin Yan's tone was quite indifferent, although he really wanted to understand, but he also knew that this issue must involve the secrets of the Chiba Imperial Family, and it was impossible for the other party to tell them, so the conversation changed, "Then can you tell me the details of the secret." ”
"Of course!" Chihiro Tsuki's expression quickly returned to nature, "Actually, our clan only discovered that there was a secret treasure left here a thousand years ago more than a hundred years ago, and then secretly built this mountain villa to hide people's eyes......
"In addition, there are two keys to this secret vault, one is in my hand, and the other is the 'black gold jade slip' you got at auction, and as far as I know, in that year, due to a premonition that a catastrophe was coming, I handed over this 'black gold jade slip' to a faithful servant to take away secretly, and later our clan also followed this clue to find it...... It wasn't until recently that it was discovered. ”
Speaking of this, Qianxunyue's gaze looked at Yang Qi, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, in fact, the ancestor of your Yang family is the faithful servant of my clan!"
"What are you talking about?" Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, his tone was quite unkind! Seriously, this news was really difficult for him to accept, after all, servants were not worth showing off, let alone ancestors.
If this is indeed true, doesn't it mean that Chihiro Moon in front of him is his master, how can he accept it when he is proud!
"I know you don't want to admit it, but it's a fact!" Chihiro raised her eyebrows, quite arrogant, and also with a hint of condescending momentum, "You should know very well that this piece of black gold and jade is left by your ancestors, and I am also very grateful to your family for keeping it for generations, because you are much stronger than those other minions!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Liang Fengjin intentionally or unintentionally.
Liang Fengjin's face had darkened, and he could clearly hear the mystery in Qianxunyue's words, "Little girl, you don't want to be yin and yang, you have something to say!"
"Why, do you still want to say it to Bengong Ming, where did your Liang family come from, and what did you do a thousand years ago, you won't be unclear!" Qianxun Yue looked at Liang Fengjin coldly, and her tone became more and more disdainful, as if she was a servant.
"...... you" Liang Fengjin suddenly blew his beard angrily and glared, "My Qing Liang Kingdom has only been established for hundreds of years, and the Chiba Dynasty collapsed a thousand years ago, how can my Liang clan have anything to do with you?"
He is still very concerned about the honor of the Liang family, and he does not allow others to blaspheme.
"It's ridiculous!" Chihiro snorted coldly, "Forget it, this palace is not here to discuss these things at all, and I don't bother to bother with you, and there is no point in talking about this topic!"
She really didn't want to continue the discussion, and that wasn't the point of discussion now. But Liang Fengjin and Yang Qi were both staring at her with gloomy faces at the moment, and their eyes were quite unkind.
Lin Yan spoke at this time, "Listen to your tone, your status in the Chiba royal family is not low, you should still be a princess, right, I just don't know if you are married?"
His tone was a bit provocative, and there was a hint of ridicule. Although he is in someone else's territory, he is not afraid at all, if Qianxun turns his face, then he doesn't have to worry about anything, the big killing weapon is ready to be released at any time, and it is difficult to say who will kill the deer at that time.
Anyway, this is not outside, whether it is the Netherworld Poison Lotus or the Black Mist Cage, he can use it to his heart's content.
Of course, he didn't mean to find fault, but he said this to help Yang Qi and Liang Fengjin vent their anger.
Who knows, Qianxunyue was not only not annoyed, but smiled charmingly at Lin Yan, and her tone was a little more flirtatious, "It seems that you are not very stupid, this palace is Princess Xunyue, but what, this palace has not yet come out of the cabinet, and you still have a chance?"
Lin Yan didn't expect the other party to come to this hand, he was stunned, he was almost thundered, and he didn't know how to deal with it, a few beads of sweat unconsciously appeared on his forehead, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into embarrassment!
Even Qi Guanxiong, who was silent on the side, was stunned, he never dreamed that Her Royal Highness the high-ranking princess would behave like this, and secretly wondered in his heart: Is she still the resolute and ruthless princess of the moon? Could it be that she really fell in love with Lin Yan?
He has seen Chihiro Moon's style with his own eyes in the past, and he is never soft when he kills people, he is simply ruthless, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a female demon.
Of course, he is also very aware of his identity and will not speak casually.
obviously felt that the atmosphere was extremely weird, and Chihiro Yue also accepted it when she saw it, and did not continue to "talk nonsense", and suddenly smiled, "Let's continue to get to the point......"
She looked at Lin Yan and continued: "Originally, this secret vault was very quiet, and there was nothing unusual about the surrounding mountains and forests, but not long ago, a group of adventurers suddenly appeared outside......
After Lin Yan heard this, he thought of the Blue Star Begonia and the monster again, so he asked, "This matter is indeed very weird, but I wonder if the Blue Star Begonia and the monster have anything to do with this kind of secret treasure?"
