72. Night walking in the Golden Scale Workshop, fishing in the early hours of the morning
For Xia Yan, a traverser, during the day, when he was originally sleeping and doing nothing, he suddenly had a college career.
This academy is a good place for him to broaden his understanding of the world, and he has nothing to oppose it.
As for the problem of sleeping, it is also easily solved.
The journey back and forth to the academy would probably take more than five hours, which was enough for Xia Yan to sleep for a while, and for a great grandmaster, this rest time was completely enough.
"Your Highness, what you have learned today, will go well?"
After arriving at the Moon Shadow Palace, Bai Ma asked again.
Xia Yan also had nothing to hide, and said the words that Xiao Li Xuezheng said during the day, as well as the direction of his cultivation in the future.
Bai Maqiao's face was surprised, and the fox's eyes widened as she looked at Xia Yan, and said, "If you get its essence, you can directly achieve the words of the family?"
Wouldn't that be a complete lack of progress?
Either unknown, or... One step to the sky?
What is this? ”
Other people's realms are all gradual, but Xia Yan either doesn't advance because of his particularity, or... Directly cross several realms and directly reach the outpost of the Great Grandmaster of Wendao.
In the meantime, no progress has been made.
Isn't this a matter of luck?
"No, how can Xiao Li Xuezheng be like this? Xiao Li Xuezheng can't just throw a copy of [Wen Mo Zhi Xin] to His Royal Highness and don't ask... I've got to tell my mother. ”
Bai Ma's little face was a little red with anger, as if Bao Ma saw that her baby had met an irresponsible teacher.
Xia Yan himself didn't know why Bai Suli was so concerned about him, he was not in a hurry, but Bai Suli was in a hurry.
But...
He suddenly said, "Xiaobai, give you something." ”
Bai Suli's fox eyes were a little stunned, "Give me something?" ”
Xia Yan took out a small ink-colored gourd from his arms, and then handed it over, "It's a literary play, called the Moyu gourd, as long as you pull the stopper, it can emit a fairy mist, which makes people feel calm, even if you sleep, you can sleep well."
You guard me every day, and you may not sleep well at night, this gourd with you just happens to play a role. ”
Bai Suli was stunned, her eyes flashed with the ripples of spring water, and suddenly... She turned around, turned her head, didn't pick up the gourd at all, walked a few steps, and said, "Don't want it, Xiao Li Xuezheng sent you, if I guessed correctly, it should be to help you cultivate."
Eat early, bathe, and rest.
You are a scribe who has not even entered the third rate, but you are too easily tired to lose your body.
In this way, you will be able to devote yourself to the understanding. ”
Xia Yan watched her from a distance, saw her walk into the side room, and closed the door again before retracting his gaze.
I closed my eyes slightly, thinking about the way forward.
Obviously, he didn't plan to devote himself to Wendao, but only planned to try it "unintentionally"...
It's a surprise, it's not a surprise, it's not an accident.
Therefore, this kind of perception of not looking at progress and not needing to be assessed is just right for him.
"After becoming a great grandmaster, the effect of this Peach Blossom Luck II seems to be much better, and the problem of intelligence is preliminarily solved...
It may seem like a bit scummy, but I really can't do anything else.
Now we have to hurry up and solve the problem of cultivation resources.
Nowadays, whether I drink water or eat soil, I am no longer of any use.
Therefore, you still have to take medicine, and you have to eat a lot of it, so as not to fall behind the progress of the promotion.
I must hurry up and improve the luck of poison thinking people, and I can't delay it any longer. ”
Dinner...
Bath...
Xia Yan looked calm, sat at the table, laid out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone given by Xiao Li Xuezheng, took the incense burner to burn incense, and then in the thin mist emitted from the mouth of the gourd, followed the method in [Smelling Ink and Knowing the Heart] to meditate.
Half an hour later, he was in a very peaceful mood, but as for finding his essence... But I didn't have a clue.
So...
Until midnight.
Xia Yan skillfully put on more than 4,000 catties of rusty heavy armor...
Yesterday, he saw the black clothes on the hanger of the house, which was the sign of the meeting he had agreed with the little widow.
The little widow had to leave her black belt here a day beforehand to see him.
Brush!!
A terrifying, vicious black shadow appeared in the hut of the Marquis of Boyang's mansion.
In the room, a beautiful girl is lying on the bed, the white tent is moving lightly, and the futon is hidden from the outside, which is a pair of long legs are undulating and arching the red silk quilt, and the picture is reflected on the gauze tent, showing the feeling of loneliness and loneliness.
At the same time, the slight gasps and soft groans came out again...
Xia Yan directly opened his realm of perception, and suddenly, all the movements in the surrounding five miles fell into his mind.
And in this bed, there is clearly only one person.
Boom...
He took a gentle step forward.
At this step, the white veil suddenly opened, and a delicate figure pounced out, falling gently and skillfully in front of Xia Yan.
When I looked up, I saw a charming face with bright cheeks, and my eyes were moist as if they were dripping with water.
"Your Excellency, you're here!"
The little widow raised her snow neck, her jade feet trampled on the ground, and she wore only obscene clothes, and at this time she showed a seductive appearance to the fullest.
Xia Yan said in a loud voice: "What's the news?" ”
The little widow licked her lips and glanced at the terrifying man in front of her.
What a strong body and what a vicious face under this heavy armor...
If such an existence pressed against her delicate carcass, it would be exciting just thinking about it.
"My lord, you might as well turn your concubine into your woman first...
With such a relationship between you and me, you can trust me more, and the concubine will also feel that she is busy for her father-in-law, so she will work harder, isn't it? ”
Xia Yan: ...
The little widow whispered, "I assure you that the concubine body is worthy of your unarmouring, and the concubine body will serve you comfortably, even if... You can only remove the armor underneath.
A concubine will surely make you happy. ”
Xia Yan said in a loud voice: "I heard that you are the woman of the third prince. ”
The little widow excitedly said, "Wouldn't that be better?" You are ravaging the woman of a prince! ”
She twisted her legs and stood with her head held high.
Xia Yan snorted coldly and said in an urn voice: "What makes you think this seat is so easy to speak?" ”
The little widow hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, my lord, the little woman is working very hard to find out information for you these days." ”
"I'll give you five minutes to get your clothes and pants on."
Xia Yan said coldly, and then turned around slightly.
The little widow didn't dare to make another time, and when she saw him turn around, she said "yo" in her heart, but she didn't expect to be a decent gentleman.
She became more and more interested, and for some reason, she now just wanted to get into bed with the man in front of her and go to Yunyu together.
On weekdays, although she is also sassy, she also has strong self-control, because she only wants to complain about "the strong person who may become her big tree", as for other cats and dogs, even if they are handsome, how can they be worthy?
Five minutes later...
Xia Yan turned around, the little widow was already neatly dressed, her head was slightly raised, and she had the reserved demeanor of a little noblewoman, she was at the helm of the Boyang Marquis Mansion at this time.
"Say, don't let me down."
"Yes, sir."
The little widow answered, and then told me all the information she had received from various sources.
The information she said was extremely mixed, but it was clear and articulate.
This made Xia Yan look sideways slightly, although this girl has some flaws in her temperament, she is a good intelligence officer.
However, what the little widow said did not mean much to him.
But he still listened patiently.
As the minutes ticked by, the little widow was still babbling.
"There have been many disappearances in this Yujing North City recently, all of them are the daughters of powerful families, and I also heard that just this afternoon... The fourth princess in the palace, Sima Ying, also disappeared. ”
The fourth princess, Sima Ying?
Xia Yan asked, "Is there any follow-up information on this matter?" ”
The little widow was talking with a short entry, and when she saw that he was not interested, she would skip it briefly, and now that he finally waited for him to speak, he continued: "Yes, I heard that their disappearance is related to the Golden Scale Workshop in the northern city of Yujing, and during the day today, many patrols are patrolling in the meantime, trying to find those missing women.
Maybe... You've found it now, right?
Oh, by the way, there was one of those people from my Boyang Marquis Mansion, and he told me he overheard a message.
It was said that there was a strange smell in the Golden Scale Workshop, and the aroma seemed to be a terrible anti-drug ———— lost incense.
This lost incense can make the person who smells it feel like being bewitched, even if it is okay at the time, and when it is far away... You can't help but return.
If there is such incense, then it makes sense.
Judging from the concubines, most of the missing women are young and beautiful, even so... Either he was killed by a flower thief, or he met a bold man, or he was a beggar gang in Yujing City..."
She spoke eloquently.
Xia Yan stared at her suddenly.
The little widow was stunned, put her hands on her face and said, "My lord... Want it? ”
Xia Yan said, "I want you to go for a walk around the Golden Scale Workshop alone." ”
The little widow blinked, "My lord, do you want to use your concubines as bait to lure them out?" ”
Xia Yan nodded.
The little widow grinned and said, "Then do the adults also recognize the young beauty of the concubine?" ”
Xia Yan said in a loud voice: "Change into a tight cloak with a hat, show your body, but cover your face." ”
...
...
A moment later.
Xia Yan locked the location of the Golden Scale Workshop in the north of the city, he used the ghost domain to shuttle to the nearby area, and then quickly walked to the vicinity of the Golden Scale Workshop with the sack on his back, and when he got there, he opened the sack.
The little widow staggered out, and a cold wind blew, and she shivered.
"Your Excellency?"
The little widow cried softly.
But there was no movement.
"Your Excellency?" The little widow continued to shout, "You... Are you there? ”
Still no movement.
The little widow suddenly had a glimmer of realization.
Since the terrifying adult wanted her to be bait, he would naturally leave.
Because only in this way will she be scared enough, her acting skills will be good enough, and the fish will take the bait.
But... What if that adult didn't care about her at all?
Could she really be missing?
Suddenly, a kind of fear arose in her heart.
And three miles away, Xia Yan was wearing a corroded four-thousand-pound heavy armor, sitting cross-legged in the dark, like an ancient bronze statue full of demonic energy and rust.
Everything around...
It's all in the realm of his perception.
