Lu Yifang stood on the city tower, his face was unpredictable, he knew that he would definitely not be able to avoid this matter today, and he was about to order the opening of the city.

At this time, Lu Jian, the younger brother of Lu Yifang, who had been standing beside him, waved his hand to him and whispered: "Big brother, you must not open the city, these people with soldiers and horses, obviously have bad intentions, think about it, people and things that can stick to Tsing Yi will have a good end?" My Lu family's thousand-year-old inheritance is just a thought of my eldest brother? Please think twice, big brother. ”

Lu Yifang hesitated for a long time and said, "Then tell me, what should I do in this situation?" Just rely on the eight hundred Danu in the city to resist the imperial court? Even if Zhao Gang's soldiers and horses in his hands are not enough to take us down, but he represents the imperial court after all, if we are a little careless, the county guard Guo is sending troops to encircle and suppress our Lu family, then we are not a dead end? ”

Lu Jian was silent for a long time, and said: "Big brother, one word, delay, as long as it drags on for some time, maybe there is still room for things to turn around, our Lu family also has a relationship in the court, I heard that Lord Gao Chong Gao has already become the acting prime minister of Zuo?" I had some personal friendship with Gao Xiangguo in Qingyang in the past, and I might be able to fight for a glimmer of life for my Lu family. ”

When Lu Yifang heard this, his spirit was shocked, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he took Lu Jian's hand and said, "Third brother, is this really the case?" ”

Lu Jian said: "Big brother, please rest assured, I heard that today's honor guard has left Suidu and headed south, and it is less than ten days away from our Dong'an City, Gao Xiangguo is driving with the emperor, it should be in time!" ”

"Ten days? Can we drag it out for ten days? Lu Yifang shook his head and said.

Lu Jian also frowned, thinking of some reason to prevaricate Fang Yunyi and the others.

At this time, Fang Yunyi's cold voice came from outside the city, shouting: "Taigong Lu doesn't have to worry, as long as we find out that it has nothing to do with the Lu family, we will naturally retreat, and we will never disturb the Lu family in the slightest, please rest assured." ”

When Lu Yifang heard this, he had no choice but to poke his head out and respond with a smile: "Master Fang, the old man wants to know what you want to investigate our Lu family?" My Lu family has never been a traitor, and I have always been honest in alchemy, honest in business, today you are here, the old man is really a little unsure. ”

Fang Yunyi saw that the other party refused to open the door, so he had no choice but to soothe: "Taigong Lu, our Tsing Yi envoy is here on business, and we just want to investigate the Dan Treasury where the pills are stored in Guibao, and I have nothing to say about the rest of the matter." ”

When the Lu brothers heard this, their hearts were a little relieved, but when they looked at the soldiers and horses outside the city, they still hesitated.

After saying all the good words, Fang Yunyi saw that the Lu family still refused to open the door, so he sneered and said: "Taigong Lu, you must open the city today, if you resist the imperial court's errand, you should understand what the consequences are, the rise and fall of the Lu family is in the thought of Taigong Lu, give you time to consider the old incense, if you don't open the city, we can only regard it as Lu Jiabao's intention to resist the law and rebel." ”

The sentence of resisting the law and seeking rebellion directly penetrated the last line of defense in the hearts of the Lu brothers, which was to confirm the crime, and after the Lu family city was broken, it was the end of the three clans, and since then the Lu family has no descendants to inherit the incense.

The brothers of the Lu family looked at each other, their hearts were horizontal, anyway, they were dead on the left and right, fortunately, they handed over the future of the Lu family to the will of heaven, and Lu Yifang had no choice but to order the opening of the city.

Sure enough, before Fang Yunyi's words fell, Lu Jiabao immediately opened the city, and Zhao Gang, who was accompanying Fang Yunyi, was also shocked when he saw this woman being so tough, and at the same time he secretly admired it, and he also instantly understood that the Lu family must have a big deal, this time it is estimated that if you don't die, you will have to shed your skin, and it is best for him to draw a line with the Lu family.

After the opening of the city, the two Lu brothers personally went out of the city to welcome Fang Yunyi and Zhao Gang into the city, Lu Yifang's smile was more ugly than crying, and at this moment he understood that the fate of hundreds of members of the Lu family was on the woman who looked cold and moving in front of him.

As soon as the two entered the city, Zhao Gang directly ordered his soldiers and horses to take over the gate of the city, as long as there was a slight change in the Lu family, the soldiers and horses outside the city could immediately rush in to quell the chaos.

Lu Yifang saw this posture, his legs were frightened, and now he is a knife, and I am a fish and meat, as the head of the Lu family, he had to force himself to accompany the two masters into the Lu Mansion with a smile and serve carefully.

Entering the lobby, Lu Yifang turned around and greeted the servant: "Come on, serve refreshments." ”

Fang Yunyi directly refused: "Taigong Lu, no need, time is pressing, please take me to Danku to check immediately." ”

Lu Yifang had no choice but to nod his head in agreement, and turned his head and instructed Lu Jian: "Third brother, immediately summon the treasury management to open the warehouse, and let the two distinguished guests check the Danku." ”

Lu Jian took the order and left, although he didn't understand why Fang Yunyi wanted to check Danku, but at this moment, Lu Jian could only keep praying in his heart not to involve the Lu family.

After a while, the three Lu family treasurers came to report, and their faces were also a little uneasy, knowing that something happened to the Lu family today.

Lu Yifang stepped forward and introduced: "Master Fang, Lord Zhao, our Lu family's care of the Danku is very strict, the Danku is personally kept by three of our Lu family's direct disciples, and it is absolutely impossible to open it without my order, and it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to mix in it, since our Lu Clan's Danku was built more than seven hundred years ago, there has never been a situation where outsiders steal the Dan. ”

Fang Yunyi bowed slightly: "I believe that with the strength of the Lu family, it is completely possible to do this." ”

Lu Yifang also guessed in his heart that this time the imperial court was so prosperous, it was very likely that the case involved pills, but he had always been full of confidence in his own Danku, and there would never be a problem, even if something happened, it was very likely that the other two had an accident.

Lu Yifang personally led the three treasury managers and Fang Zhao to the direction of Danku.

Everyone went all the way through the Lu Mansion to the location of the Danku in the east of the city, the city of Lu Jiabao is the scale of a medium-sized town, the Lu family has taken root here for more than a thousand years, has already spread out its branches, the descendants are full, with the descendants of the Lu Mansion as the center, the city integrates alchemy, medicine store, Danku, and so on as one of the alchemy one-stop industry, almost a miniature version of the Taiji Palace.

It's just that the Lu family is not as local as the royal family, and directly built a palace group for alchemy, although so, the Lu family has accumulated nearly a thousand years of heritage, all kinds of secret pill recipes, all kinds of secret alchemy, ordinary families or sects are simply incomparable, this alchemy actually does not need to be a monk to do it, ordinary people master alchemy, and they can also be full-time alchemy.

Therefore, the monk family generally does not last long, because the monk cannot guarantee that his descendants can also cultivate, and the cultivation talent is random, but the alchemy family can be passed down from generation to generation, they do not rely on talent, they only need to master the alchemy handed down from their ancestors to eat and wear without worry.

In the monk world, whether it is the four major sects or the scattered cultivators without sects and sects, they all have great respect for these alchemy families, because one day they will use their life-saving pills, and it is especially important to have a good relationship with these families.

Without further ado, everyone came all the way to Danku, only to see that Danku was a big house, the door of the library was closed, and there were more than a dozen sword-wielding men with a height of eight feet in front of Danku, all of whom had cold faces and tall figures, and saw their temples protruding, they knew that they were all good martial artists. From time to time, there are patrols around Danku patrolling back and forth.

Lu Yifang pointed to the patrol team and proudly introduced: "Master Fang, Lord Zhao, our Lu Family Danku is guarded in three shifts around the clock, and not even a fly can fly in. ”

Zhao Gang also nodded again and again to the Lu family's precautionary measures, expressing his approval.

Lu Yifang stepped forward to say hello, and the Danku guards all saluted respectfully to Lu Yifang, and after the salute, two of the guards came forward to open the gate of Danku, and a group of people followed Lu Yifang in.

Fang Yunyi thought that he would see boxes of pills after entering, but he didn't expect that after entering the big house, the house was empty, and there was only a bottomless artificially dug stone tunnel on the ground that stretched diagonally to the depths of the ground.

Lu Yifang entered the tunnel first, and activated a mechanism at the exit of the tunnel, and suddenly the dark tunnel mouth gradually brightened, and it was the ever-bright lights on both sides of the tunnel that gradually lit up.

A group of people followed Lu Yifang into the depths of the tunnel, Fang Yunyi went in and found that the actual tunnel was not deep, it was only three or four feet from the ground, but under the tunnel, there was a large stone room, and there were three stone walls in the center of the stone room, and in the middle of the stone wall was inlaid with a complex and huge bronze wheel, which seemed to look like a combination lock.

Lu Yifang clapped his hands and said to the three custodians: "Lu Yong, Lu Xin, Lu Tong, go and open the Danku." ”

The three of them were ordered to stand in front of the three stone walls, take out the key and insert it into the middle of the bronze wheel, and start to operate the unlock, these three are facing each other's positions, as long as the three of them operate the bronze wheel, the three people can't see how the other party operates the lock.

Lu Yifang introduced: "This lock is specially designed and manufactured by the master of the organ that our Lu family invited the Lu family to lose in the era of the nations, and the three of them hold different keys, and everyone only knows one of the ways to operate, which can be guaranteed." ”

Fang Yunyi nodded secretly, this Lu family is not a loss of an alchemy family that has been inherited for thousands of years, and there are indeed a few brushes, it seems that it should not be the Lu family's problem, there is a high probability that there is a mistake within several other families.

After a while, only a bang was heard, and the bronze gate behind the stone chamber slowly moved to one side, and behind the gate there was still a tunnel that passed downward.

Lu Yifang led everyone to the place where the pill was really stored underground, and everyone walked to the end of the tunnel and there was a huge door blocking the way, and the three warehouse managers holding the keys in their hands were inserted into the three holes of the giant door, and the giant door directly swallowed three keys, only to hear a bang, the giant door mechanism was activated, and slowly moved to the left.

Lu Yifang stepped forward to activate a mechanism, and the ever-bright lights in Danku gradually lit up, and the group of people finally saw the true face of Danku's Lushan.

Here is a huge space of underground stone storage, in the stone library only see rows of wooden shelves neatly placed Dan boxes, each Dan box is written in detail the name and efficacy of the pill, in order to facilitate the Lu family children to transfer goods at any time.

It was also the first time Fang Yunyi had seen this formation, there were valuable pills stored on the shelves in this row, I am afraid that this was the true essence of the Lu family, if all these pills were realized, it would be enough to make the Lu family rich and rival the country.
