10. Lock in the ground! Late night assassination
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
Xia Yan also had a little more familiarity and a sense of belonging to this other world.
He sat cross-legged on the collapse, listening to the movements around him every day.
Early in the morning, there was the sound of frost painting struggling to hit the water in the distance.
The water of Taiye Lake is clear, and it is common to come here to draw water.
But the little palace maid was short, grabbed the rope, and slowly lowered the barrel.
The rope was pulled for a long time, and finally... The barrel touched the surface of the water with difficulty...
She swirled with ropes, swaying so that the barrel could sink into the water.
Seeing that the bucket was full, she hurriedly pulled the rope, picked up the barrel, and quickly left the lake, as if there was some great demon hidden in the lake. If she stays for a long time, she will be dragged into the water by this big demon.
This scene is happening everywhere throughout the harem.
After all, the maids, palace maids, eunuchs, and guards in the palace all need water, and Taiye Lake is one of the important water sources.
It is said that the bottom of this lake has been used by the master to purify water and other talismans, the talisman ash into the water, precipitated into the bottom of the lake, can always keep the water source pure.
Yujing has a lot of rain and snow, and the water from the sky can often make up for the consumption of Taiye Lake.
There are three layers of copper ring stone lions on the wall of Taiye Lake, but now... Two layers have already been revealed.
But how exaggerated?
In the harem, there was an uproar.
"Why is the water of this liquid lake sinking again, how much has it sunk..."
"yes, I don't know what's going on."
"It can't be a demon... Otherwise, how could the water in this Taiye Lake be so fast?
Before, some people said that it was connected to the moat, and then the water was discharged.
But now, the water level of this Taiye Lake is much lower than the moat! ”
"Don't talk about demons in the palace, but if it goes on like this, what can I do?" Although the person who spoke said that there were no demons, she was visibly panicked, because only demons could explain the situation.
The palace maids and eunuchs were whispering, and suddenly they didn't know what was going on, and from far and near, all the voices quickly calmed down.
Not long after, Xia Yan, who was resting on the bed, couldn't hear any more sound.
Apart from...
Footsteps.
On the edge of Taiye Lake, two footsteps sounded.
At noon, when Hanqin came to deliver the room, Xia Yan knew the identity of the person who came.
"Your Highness, in the past few days, the people in the harem have been panicking, and the water of Taiye Lake has been falling again and again, and I don't know what's going on, it's scared to death."
"But it's okay, today... Even the people from the Zhongtian Great Heavenly God Divine Palace have come to investigate..."
"Those people from the Zhongtian Great Heavenly God Shrine are so strange, they are all wearing costumes, this is the first time I have seen them. In the past, I only knew that they would sing in the shrine for the gods, but I didn't know that they also wore costumes on weekdays..."
"Slave maid, I heard that Your Royal Highness, you seem to have a good relationship with a female official of the Great Heavenly God Divine Palace..."
Hanqin chattered, quietly looking at the three princes while providing information for the three princes.
During this time, His Highness must have recovered, right?
This temperament is becoming more and more fierce, and it gives people a sense of security, standing on his side has a feeling that he is very weak and powerless, and His Royal Highness's figure is really good, the strong but restrained muscles, the powerful but not thick waist, the deep and clear eyes, the majestic temperament that exudes between the hands and feet, is really ...... It's really fascinating.
It is great to be able to serve such a highness.
I really don't know what the intentions of those who say that His Highness doesn't learn and has no skills, spends all his time drinking, bullies the weak and fears the hard, and is a complete frivolous prodigal!
The happiness in Hanqin's heart rose "soaring".
The fake prince didn't know what the palace maid was thinking, he just ate the meal silently.
The Great Heavenly God... He had heard the name many times.
At the beginning of the new year, the fattest sacrifice will be offered to this great god of the Middle Heaven.
There is no doubt that this Zhongtian Great Heavenly God Shrine is definitely a behemoth, maybe it is still a religious system independent of the power of the royal family, and the two sides jointly govern this country...
It's getting more and more complicated...
This vortex is also getting more and more terrifying, as the center of the vortex itself... Get out early.
Moreover, as time progresses, he will meet more and more acquaintances of the three princes, even friends, lovers ...
He didn't believe that a prodigal son like the Third Prince hadn't touched flowers and grass over the years, stealing incense and stealing jade.
Now it's just the female official of this Great Heavenly God Divine Palace, and I don't know who there will be next time.
As for Taiye Lake, since it has been targeted by the Great Heavenly God Divine Palace, I am afraid that I will have to be more careful if I go in the future, although it ...... At this stage, the amount of true qi that the water of Taiye Lake can provide is getting less and less, but there is no other way for a while.
Moreover, practicing the Light Gong Body Method at the bottom of the lake will be extremely fast.
Xia Yan was eating calmly on the surface, but many thoughts flashed in his mind.
He glanced at the current message:
[Name: Xia Yan]
[True Qi: Ground Lock: (2/1600)]
【Exercises:】
Toad Palace Stealing Incense Step (Top Stream): Ascending to the Peak 100/800
Feiyan Huilin (first class): 100/400

【Luck:】
Peach Blossom Luck I
Reincarnation II – You drink water from the lake for fifteen nights in a row to reap the luck. You're ridiculously good at the water, and you can even stay in the water like a fish without coming to the surface to breathe. This astonishing ability gives reason to believe that you have received a gift from a past life. That's right, you were a water spirit in your past life. Not only do you swim in the water, but you also move freely, with little to no influence from the viscous forces in the water.
"I didn't expect to be able to enter the ground level so quickly, but I didn't know that I didn't have an offensive technique now... How is the strength position here? ”
Xia Yan sensed his body.
The true qi and the body have been perfectly integrated, and the true qi of the dantian has long changed from the river to the lake, and then from the lake to the sea.
And the blood qi in the flesh and blood is full of true qi, and there is a feeling of a fierce beast that is quietly dormant, as if the tide of anger is slapping the embankment of the body in the body.
In the process of slapping, the shackles of some bodies are everywhere, appearing, as if blocking the extension of the force, so that people's power is limited to this, and cannot be broken.
...
...
Night...
It was not midnight.
Xia Yan lay quietly on the bed.
There was silence in the Moon Shadow Palace.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Xia Yan's expression moved slightly, because he felt the door be pushed open faintly.
But when he pushed it open, it was immediately shut, as if it was just a gust of wind that inadvertently blew open the door.
However, when the door of the room was slightly opened, a cold figure quickly entered, and the moonlight shone through the window, revealing a dagger in the figure's hand.
The figure just entered, then tiptoed and walked, and in an instant, he rushed out more than ten zhang, and the dagger in his hand was like a fish taking advantage of the tide, smoothly and drifting to the bed.
But this cut was empty.
The black shadow stood in place, slowly frowning, looking left and right, but there was no one to be seen.
"What's going on? Shouldn't you lie in bed and sleep? How did it disappear? ”
The black shadow quickly turned his head and lowered himself to look under the bed, but there was no one...
However, behind this black shadow, there was a shadow that followed him.
No matter how the shadow turns, the shadow is always behind it, never to be seen.
