The direction is finalized.

The team immediately went into action and went to the palace together.

The palace building is located in the middle of the ancient city, and it is not a short journey from the edge.

During the journey, Jiang Xun and others always paid attention to the situation in the city.

But as the four of them observed beforehand, the ancient city as a whole is a "dead" city.

Death in the truest sense of the word.

There is no breath of life.

There is no trace of any biological activity.

Some.

It's just a low-rise building that is dilapidated and decaying.

Walking through the ancient city full of unknowns and extremely subtle, the four of them were highly tense.

This kind of place is a secret place.

The more abnormal the phenomenon, the more it indicates that there is danger.

Of course.

Danger and harvest often go hand in hand.

The more dangerous it is, the greater the harvest.

……

Not long after, the four of them came to the palace building in the middle of the city.

Standing still, Jiang Xun looked left and right.

"I'll go and explore the surroundings of the palace, Brother Long, you go up to the top of the palace first, and see what the situation is on the top floor of the palace."

"If there is no problem, Brother Long, you hurry up and make the arrangements for the night. When the time came, Xiaoyu took Xiaobai down to inspect the various floors of the palace, and tried to finish the work before nightfall. ”

While speaking, Jiang Xun glanced at Xiao Bai, who was sleeping soundly on Zhu Weiyang's shoulder.

Xiao Bai then opened his eyes, reluctantly moved, flew up and landed on Chen Xiaoyu's shoulder, and stared at a pair of golden eyes.

Although Xiaobai looks like the only daytime snowy owl in the owl class, it is essentially a fairly nocturnal creature.

During the day, the little ones are not only more sleepy, but also too lazy to move.

When Jiang Xun was put aside, he did not have to reverse his ecological habits.

But that's when it's needed.

As a heaven and earth spirit animal, Xiaobai is still quite sensitive in all aspects.

There are many things that cannot be discovered by the divine sense, which can be discovered through the predatory instinct.

Chen Xiaoyu saw all kinds of cute and inexplicably handsome Xiaobai come to his shoulder after opening his eyes, poked the little guy's fluffy belly, and kept swinging his tail.

This little one.

She's been hungry for a long time.

It's a pity that the little thing is drowsy all day long, and it doesn't be active much after nightfall, only Zhu Weiyang will be energetic when feeding, and she doesn't have a chance to play if she wants to.

This way.

Jiang Xun woke up Xiaobai and gave instructions in his heart, nodded with the three of them and walked away.

Seeing this, Tang Long and the others glanced at each other and rose into the sky respectively.

Then, in a silent tacit understanding, the three of them dispersed and circled the palace for a cursory inspection.

The palace as a whole is nine floors.

The floor is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top.

Each floor is spaced about four to five meters apart, and each floor has a "view" terrace.

The palace is dilapidated.

All the upper and lower floors have lost their enclosed nature, and even without a terrace, they can be accessed directly from the outside.

Meet on the top terrace of the palace.

The three of them stood still, and Zhu Weiyang spoke.

"When I looked inside the gap on the sixth floor, I found a few abandoned bird nests, which looked quite messy and had been abandoned for a while, but apparently there were birds living on the sixth floor before, Sister Xiaoyu, you will confirm it first when you go down."

"Understood."

Chen Xiaoyu responded.

Before the words fell, Tang Long took off his mask and exhaled a breath of turbidity.

"It's good if there are traces of biological activity, if there are no traces at all, to be honest, my heart is a little empty."

Chen Xiaoyu laughed when he heard this, took off his mask and said.

"Brother Long is a man, a little bolder?"

"If you are bold, you must also be high!"

Tang Long smiled bitterly and said.

"I'm just an ordinary formation division, not the air force boss of the Weiyang family, and it's easy to die violently if I'm too bold."

Zhu Weiyang was also about to take off his mask to breathe in the fresh air, when he heard the sound, he glanced at Tang Long and summoned Yunxian, and took out three thunder talismans and handed them over.

"I have been cultivating these three thunder talismans for a long time, among them are the talisman imprints I laid with the secret method, one can withstand my full strength, anyone can use it without damaging the power, Brother Long, you take it for self-defense."

“……”

Tang Long.

He just made a joke casually to relieve the highly tense mental state, how could he have thought that Weiyang girl was so real?

He felt that he might have grasped a new posture to get along with Zhu Weiyang in the future.

didn't say politely to the Weiyang girl, Tang Long took the thunder talisman stand-in and saved, and said.

"Let's go, let's get to the top of the floor."

As he spoke, he stepped out from the entrance to the top terrace.

While Chen Xiaoyu and Zhu Weiyang followed together, the former waved his tail and whispered.

"Weiyang, you branded thunder talisman ......"

"There is no more for the time being, after all, I have limited time to enter the Three Realms, and when I go out, Sister Xiaoyu, you can ask me to customize it if you need it, and I will make you cheaper then."

Zhu Weiyang whispered.

"Right!"

Chen Xiaoyu nodded vigorously.

It's true that runes aren't known for their combat effectiveness.

But this has nothing to do with the violence of the talisman in their hands.

A rune is a rune, and a rune is a rune.

Different.

The rune seal with the charm brand and carefully cultivated is often worthy of the blows of the rune master, which is a good thing that can really save life, and you can't buy it if you want to buy it on the market.

The method of the rune brand is basically in the hands of the rune family in the form of an unpassed secret.

The family is not short of that money.

Symbolic imprints require a lot of effort to engrave.

After getting it out, it must be used for yourself in case of emergency, or as a gift.

……

Entering the top floor of the palace through the terrace, there was no unexpected smell of decay.

What greeted Tang Long and the others was a faint fragrance.

Out of instinct, the three of them closed their mouths and noses for the first time.

Raise your eyes and look around.

Attached to the terrace, this large palace room is full of lavish wooden decorations.

These wooden decorations all reveal a faint charm.

Although Lingyun feels that it is no longer in the product, and the dust everywhere is serious, the decorations everywhere are very well preserved.

Seeing such a situation, Tang Long looked sideways and made a guess.

"Woody?"

Zhu Weiyang didn't speak, took out a small detector and looked at the readings, walked to a bookcase by the wall and raised his eyes.

"It's the woody smell of the decoration."

As she spoke, she closed her mouth and nose and took a careful breath.

"It's a pity, it's no longer in the product and can still emit such a faint fragrance, this fragrance smells faintly and has a refreshing and calming effect, it's hard to imagine what kind of grade these decorations were at the beginning."

Hearing her say this, Tang Long and Chen Xiaoyu successively opened their mouths and noses to close them.

Then the two also tasted the effect of woody fragrance.

In addition to being amazed by this, Tang Long looked at the spider silk all over the corner of the wall and looked around.

Huge palace rooms.

There are well-kept bookshelves, desks, benches, a broken bed and a strangely shaped incense burner.

"This whole room seems to be a bedroom, and it seems that it is either the personal enjoyment of the lord of the palace or the use of guests."

opened his mouth to speak, Tang Long said.

"We spent the night in this room tonight, and the terrace outside was perfect for observation. I'll start decorating it now, Weiyang, you can accompany Xiaoyu to check the other rooms on the top floor first, and then come to me. ”

As he spoke, he took out the spirit beast bag and released Lao Hei.

Only two days have passed, and Lao Heiyuan has not yet reached the level of making up for it.

However, with a sufficient amount of Qi Replenishing Pill and Blood Food to fill it, its physical body has recovered a lot, and its strength has also recovered a little.

In the end, it is a heaven and earth spirit beast, and its vitality is tenacious enough.

Seeing that Tang Long released Lao Hei as a guarantee, Zhu Weiyang glanced at Chen Xiaoyu with an "um", and the latter understood that the two of them would walk away together.

……

Meanwhile.

On the ground of the ancient city, Jiang Xun had already circled around the palace.

There are no substantive findings.

However, he confirmed that there were main entrances on all sides of the palace, and it was estimated that this palace had the functions of the consul, and each entrance was for the convenience of all kinds of personnel.

Besides.

The bungalows adjacent to the palace are generally one size larger than the perimeter.

The buildings facing the street basically have a wide portal facing the street, which has a sense of déjà vu of the merchants.

Obvious.

The palace is close to the "business district" that was once the ancient city.

But even in the "business district" area, it is still a square two-story bungalow.

That's the pattern.

I have to say slightly subtle.

Since there is a "business district", it must be indispensable to have hotels, restaurants or other people who have large space requirements, right?

With only two floors, how can you meet these needs?

Is it because the lord of the ancient city does not allow it, or is it due to some special restriction?

Secretly wondering, Jiang Xun walked into a nearby "shop".

As soon as he entered, he saw a pile of rotten wooden shelves against the wall, in which all kinds of broken bottles and jars were buried.

These......

Is it a commodity?

Step forward and pick up a bottle that is relatively intact.

Jiang Xun was about to wipe it clean and take a look, when he suddenly felt something rolling in the bottle.

Subconsciously took off the cork, and he was stunned to find that there were two well-preserved pills inside.

！

Jiang Xun was stunned at that time.

The bottle is in the shape of a porcelain vase.

The style is used to hold the pill and did not run.

But the fact that the two pills inside could be kept so well was really beyond his expectations.

Pouring out the elixir, Jiang Xun rubbed it gently.

The surface of the pill was dusty.

The body is round, and the whole body is milky white.

Without the dust covering, a faint medicinal fragrance spread.

Well.

This danxiang.

At least the fourth order.

Tasting the medicinal fragrance and the restrained abundant charm in it, it is not like the grade has weakened.

This is clearly not right!

So much time has passed.

The existence of the elixir will inevitably decline in its medicinal power.

There is no reason why the elixir itself is well preserved and the medicinal effect is in full bloom.

After examining the pill for a while, Jiang Xun flipped his hand and put it away.

Outside, the sky was getting dark, and there was no time to dig deeper.

Since there is a pill with full medicinal effect and good preservation, no matter what the effect is, let's put it away.

Taking another porcelain bottle in his hand, Jiang Xun was surprised to find that there were also pills in this bottle, and there were six of them in one guy.

It is also well preserved and full of medicinal effects, but it is only heavily dusted.

Without thinking much about it, Jiang Xuntai slapped the rotten wooden shelves that had been piled up together with all the buried porcelain vases, and his divine consciousness was distributed.

Then, he raised his hand to shake it in the air.

Freedom in the Heavenly Devil.

Pick up the stars.

At that time, more than 500 mellow pills were ingested in the air.

！

Jiang Xun.

The number of pills.

I didn't say anything.

The highest level of quality.

Most of the remaining third-order are second-order.

Rich!

Waving his hand to put all the pills into the storage bag, Jiang searched for it, and saw that there was no other harvest from the back door of the store and walked into another one.

It's the same as the previous one.

There is also a pile of broken wooden shelves in the corner.

But instead of porcelain vases, one well-preserved wooden box after another, were buried in the pile of wooden shelves.

Take one to open.

Among them is a flying sword with a peculiar shape and introverted charm.

Treasure!

Jiang Xun was taken aback at that time.

Stroke the flying sword.

The texture is excellent, and it is a high-end product.

Drawing a gourd in the same way, one palm shattered into piles of wooden shelves, Jiang Xun soon harvested more than seventy treasures of different styles, among which swords were the majority, and there were also some Qimen treasures.

The two shops in a row have gained a lot, and Jiang Xun did not waste time leaving and entering the third "shop".

There are also rotten wooden shelves in the corner of this room, and there are wooden boxes buried in them.

Take one to open.

Jiang Xun found that there were only a few shriveled plant rhizomes inside, and there was an extremely faint spiritual charm emanating from them.

This is......

Elixir residues?

After changing several wooden boxes in a row, Jiang Xun was heartbroken.

The wooden boxes in this "shop" were invariably shriveled plant rhizomes, apparently the last traces of the elixir after time had withered.

Feeling regretful, Jiang Xun couldn't help but wonder.

A simple elixir, the "shelf life" is definitely not as long as the refined elixir.

Not to mention treasures.

But the elixir has withered into this virtue, how can the elixir be preserved so well?

With questions in mind, Jiang Xun came to the fourth shop.

The same piles of rotten wooden shelves.

This time, there are no wooden boxes and porcelain vases buried inside, and there are pieces of metallic things one after another.

Pick up a piece of it.

Jiang Xun was a good guy at that time.

Metal Spiritual Materials!

It's a pity that it's exposed, and the spirit has been dissipated and useless.

There were remnants of the elixir before, and Jiang Xun didn't regret it this time.

And as far as I can see, the metal spiritual materials buried in the rotten wood shelves are very small, not so much to sell them as to display them on the counter.

After tasting the pills obtained beforehand, the more than 500 pills were not the same.

The type in each bottle is different, and it seems to be the purpose of display.

Such a product.

An idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Xun's mind.

Will the shops on the street belong to the same one, and then only display the goods.

After the deal is concluded, will the goods be picked up separately from the warehouse?

With such thoughts, Jiang Xun couldn't help but feel warm.

Storeroom!?

There should be a lot of treasures there?

But then he frowned again.

In terms of the architectural specifications of the ancient city, where can it be used as a warehouse for "large commercial households"?

Unconsciously, he looked at the palace that was close at hand.

At this moment, Zhu Weiyang's voice sounded in his ears.

"Brother Xun, look at the east mountain wall, fly higher and look down."

？

Jiang Xun put a question mark.

Walking briskly out of the shop, he glanced at the tall palace building, rose to the top of the palace, and then looked east.

At this sight, he got goosebumps.

I saw that the tall and towering mountain in the north of the ancient city was inlaid with one piece after another of things that resembled tablets, and a large piece of it looked so dazzling in the reflection of the setting sun.
