Chapter 495: An Eventful Night
Each of the three major ascension areas in the Yuyu realm has two ascension points, immortals and demons. In the vicinity of the Ascension Point, there will be a corresponding camp that will be responsible for receiving the Ascension. But because the demon race has never had a soarer for a long time, it wasn't until Xiao Tianhe's ascension a few years ago that this "tradition" was broken, so the three ascension camps of the demon clan were relatively depressed, such as the Xinwang camp in Feiyun District, which was just a place outside Feiyun City to set up a few tents. However, the situation on the Immortal Clan's side was very different, although the interval between the appearance of the two ascended people before and after was often very long, sometimes it could even be as long as nearly a hundred years, but there were also cases where they appeared one after another. In short, the ascension of the immortal clan is only "interrupted", but not "stopped". Therefore, the three ascension camps of the Immortal Clan, the "face" is much better.
The last time Jin Namjong led Hua Qingyu through the Falling Sun Camp, he didn't go in at all, so Hua Qingyu didn't know what this strange "small city outside the city" was. Nowadays, a closer look shows that the radius is two or three miles, the red wall is matched with green tiles, and even the cornices and hooks are so exquisite. I heard that the Immortal Clan's leading team often reaches dozens of people, but it is far larger than the three-person team of the Demon Clan's Xinwang Camp in Feiyun District. However, Hua Qingyu didn't quite understand, it was just a receiver for the ascendant, did he really need so many people?
The soap-lacquered gate of the Fallen Sun Camp was usually closed, and it was entered and exited by a small door on a leaf. There is also a small window on the small door for watching the comers. Interestingly, the "Falling Sun Camp" is named "Falling Sun" after the mountain cliff, but the door is decorated with a rising sun.
When they arrived here, they couldn't be "generous" anymore, Hua Liuwei and Hua Qingyu first went to the woods by the roadside to change into a set of black clothes, skimmed the hat, covered it with a black cloth, and quietly touched back to the wall of the falling sun camp. The wall was not high, and the two of them easily climbed in.
There are about 20 large and small buildings in the camp, and the stars surround the martial arts training ground in it. Although it was late at night, the lights on the martial arts training ground were still bright, and the noise could be faintly heard.
"Oh, so diligent!" whispered.
Everyone gathered in the martial arts training ground, which was convenient for the two of them to act. There must be no one in a house without a lamp, and it is only necessary to find out which room with light the woman who has ascended is in. After climbing onto the roof, the two split up and searched.
Hua Qingyu estimated that there should be no people in the camp who were too strong. With the strength of the seven-star star of Hualiuea, even if someone finds out, it shouldn't be a problem to escape in time.
According to the division of labor between the two, the eaves of the flower flow go around to the south, and the flower Qingyu goes around the north, even if the ascendant is found, he will not act on his own, and the plan will be made after the final convergence in the west. In the half circle that Hua Qingyu explored, there were more bungalows and fewer buildings, while the other half circle was just the opposite, after all, the buildings were more troublesome and more dangerous to explore.
There were many rooms with lights on in the camp, but Hua Qingyu didn't find any figures after lifting the tiles of the five rooms one after another. "Have you all gone to the martial arts training ground?" Hua Qingyu set her eyes on the brightest place in the distance. There were many figures shaking, and cheers and shouts were heard from time to time. "I wish the Ascended wasn't there......" she thought to herself.
After a row of bungalows was explored, Hua Qingyu jumped onto the roof of another row. Climbing over the ridge, she found that in front of this row of bungalows, there were several guards, and almost one was "standing" in front of almost every door. Perhaps it was boredom in the middle of the night, and many of the guards leaned against the wall to close their eyes.
"Hah, a bunch of slackers. Hua Qingyu snickered at the same time, but she was also very curious, why this row of houses was the only one to set up a "heavy defense"? She carefully observed and found that the rooms in this row of houses seemed to be very large, a total of five rooms, but the whole row was longer than the bungalows of the other ten rooms. "Such a large room, it can't be the place where the captain and the vice-captain live, right?If so, who lives in those more ornate small buildings?" Hua Qingyu found that the smell was actually emanating from the cracks in the roof tiles. "I see, this row of houses is probably used for alchemy and casting. It is only a small army battalion, and the supporting facilities are quite complete. ”
In fact, this is not only the case, but also the entire Terran territory. Although the military camp and the state city are under the jurisdiction of generals and marshals, they are two different systems. The lord of the city and the commander of the camp were of equal status, and each had his own duties. The foundry shops and pharmacies in the city were under the control of the city lord, but they were privately opened and only bear a share of the tax burden. In other words, even if the camp commander comes to the door, he has to pay for it, and this is business. The alchemy room and casting room set up in the barracks are completely for the army, and the products are deployed by the camp commander, and the alchemists and founders enjoy the army's benefits. Except for the people of the military, they are not qualified to deploy or use these cultivation resources. Of course, this is for the big camp. In a small camp like the one where the receiving party lives, there is no leader, only a captain. A captain is undoubtedly much lower in status than a lord of a big city such as the main city of the Take-off Zone.
The row of houses that Hua Qingyu touched was the logistics station set up in the sunfall camp. In addition to the alchemy room and the casting room, there are also two large rooms to store the materials needed for alchemy and casting. Finally, a slightly smaller house, there are some books, registers, camp logs, and other miscellaneous items.
There is a strong smell of herbs that suddenly pervades, indicating that someone is alchemizing. Out of curiosity, Hua Qingyu quietly uncovered a piece of roof tiles and peeked in. Leaning against the window, there are four Dan furnaces side by side. Hua Qingyu shook his head, such a row of four Dan furnaces by the window, which seems to be neat and compact, but in fact it is a "faint trick". Not long after worshipping Hua Jun, Hua Qianxue warned her that the Dan furnace must not be too close, nor should it be reliable against the wall or window. Here's why:
Alchemy and alchemy, without fire, there is no pill, and even the word 'refining' is a side of the word 'fire'. The vast majority of Dan furnaces are made of heat-resistant metal, and during the alchemy process, the temperature in the furnace is extremely high, and the Dan furnace will also face outward
Radiate a lot of heat. The proximity of the Dan furnaces to each other will inevitably cause the heat to mix with each other and nuisance. For example, if a furnace is being refined, but the furnace next to it is about to start refining, the materials that have just been put in will inevitably be scorched by the heat of the previous furnace, which is equivalent to passing the fire for the medicinal herbs unplanned. If you want to refine a high-quality elixir, you have extremely strict requirements for all kinds of details, how can you be so sloppy? In addition, even if two furnaces are refining pills at the same time, the heat of each other is different. As far as the Qiankun Eight Kings Ding of Huajun is concerned, the fire in each furnace is different, and the heat is naturally different. If there are eight furnaces in a row next to each other, I believe that it is difficult for Hua Jun to achieve today's achievements.
The unreliable wall of the Dan furnace is due to the concern of poor ventilation and uneven heat distribution. The side of the Dan furnace against the wall is bound to be hotter than the side that is not against the wall, and although the difference is not too big, it is enough to cause the quality of Cheng Dan to decrease.
Is it possible to ventilate and dissipate heat by the window? Alchemy requires that the material is pure, and the window wind will inevitably bring impurities outside the house, which is "overkill".
According to the experience summarized by Hua Jun, it is best to place the Dan furnace in the middle of the large room, according to the four walls are not close or far, and the room should be cleaned and tidy. The windows don't need to be too big, preferably low on the wall, with a wind tunnel high on the wall to heat up. In the case of multiple tripods refining together, the alchemist is in the center, and the Dan furnace is placed at equal distances. Just like the Qiankun Eight Kings Ding, the eight Dan furnaces are arranged in the direction of the eight trigrams, which is the most appropriate.
In this Dan room of the Falling Sun Camp, just looking at the layout, Hua Qingyu can conclude that the alchemy level of the people in the camp is probably not high.
In the light, a person is busy in a hurry. There were a lot of medicinal herbs on the long table, and the man went back and forth between the Dan furnace and the long table. Looking at the figure, it seems to be a woman. She didn't seem to be very familiar with medicinal herbs, and sometimes she had to look at them, smell them, and even taste them. Hua Qingyu sighed secretly, knowing the medicinal materials is the most basic preparation for alchemy, and it can be said to be the first step of the most important thing, but this woman didn't understand it thoroughly, so she couldn't practice any good pills at all. Out of sympathy for the same woman, Hua Qingyu silently recited: "Good luck!" and then covered the roof tiles.
At this time, there was a noisy and noisy sound in the distance, and it seemed to come from the small building near the gate, Hua Qingyu's heart suddenly sank, and she secretly wondered if Hua Liuqian had been accidentally discovered? With uneasiness, she went down to the ground and walked around the camp gate against the wall.
The people on the martial arts training ground seemed to be gathering at the door, and Hua Qingyu became more and more worried. "If the seniors really can't escape, they can only take the risk and summon the demon clan to help......" Hua Qingyu said in his heart. If a demon clan appears in such a place, it will inevitably cause an uproar. As a last resort, she didn't want to take this risky step.
When she arrived near the gate, Hua Qingyu saw a group of people crowding at the door from a distance. The voices were noisy and noisy, as if they were arguing about something. Hua Qingyu hid herself in the shadows and listened carefully.
"We came to arrest people on the orders of the city lord, and you dare to stop us?" one of them rebuked sharply.
Another retorted: "We are all our own people here, and there are no spies!"
"Okay, just a leading team, dare to disobey the order of the city lord! Don't you want to live?"
"We are under the control of General Ju, and we are not under the control of the city director!"
"Leave them alone, search for me!"
"Brothers, Hugh must let them go wild in our Sunfall Camp!"
The two groups of people quarreled and pushed and then punched and kicked.
Hua Qingyu was half surprised and half overjoyed when she heard this, and was surprised that her and Hua Liuxiao's actions were revealed so quickly! The reason was probably the lie that Hua Liuxiao made up when she was out of the east gate of Star City. Happily, the flower eaves have not been caught yet, and the people of the Falling Sun Camp are also "helping" to thwart those who pick up Star City.
"What should I do now?" Hua Qingyu didn't know where Hua Liuqian was at this time, and she couldn't cross this group of people to discuss with her, so she couldn't help but feel a little anxious, "Anyway, let's withdraw first, there is such a big mess, and it is impossible to take away the Ascendant." Hua Qingyu easily climbed out of the wall, and since the people at the door were busy fighting, no one noticed her at all.
When he got out of the wall, Hua Qingyu suddenly became happy, and secretly laughed at himself for being so stupid. If you can't get past the group of people at the door from inside the camp, go around the outside of the camp! So, she took off her mask, walked generously past the door, went around to the other side of the gate, and found a way to climb into the wall again.
"Woo!" Hua Qingyu jumped down and actually stepped on a soft and collapsed thing, and the thing let out a muffled snort. Hua Qingyu hurriedly jumped to the side, looked down, and saw that there was a person lying next to his feet! This shocked him into a cold sweat.
When the man looked up, he saw that it was a girl with clear eyebrows, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
Hua Qingyu also saw his face and outfit clearly. Also dressed in black. He has short hair, a resolute expression, and a hat on his back. On his buttocks, Hua Qingyu's two shoe prints are clearly printed.
Hua Qingyu calmed down and asked, "Who are you?" Since the shoe was printed on the man's buttocks, it means that when Hua Qingyu jumped off the wall, he was already lying here. He turned his face in the direction of the doorway, apparently secretly observing the battle between the two groups. Dressed in black and sneaky, Hua Qingyu estimated that he should also be a "fellow practitioner" who fell into the day camp at night.
"Thou shalt not say, it is not good for you to know who I am. The man said.
"Then I can't say that. Knowing who I am is not good for you either. Hua Qingyu returned the original words.
The man was a little depressed, and whispered: "I'm telling the truth! It's for your good!
"I'm telling the truth, and it's good for you!" Hua Qingyu thought this person was quite interesting.
The man asked again, "Then what are you doing in the Falling Sun Camp?"
"You first tell me what are you doing in the Falling Sun Camp?" Of course, Hua Qingyu would not reveal the news first.
The man knew that he would never be able to ask anything from the woman's mouth without saying something first: "I'm here to find a friend." ”
"Coincidentally, I'm also here to find a friend. "Hua Qingyu, this is really not a lie.
However, the man no longer believed it, and sighed, "You girl, you are too cunning. ”
"Each other, each other. Hua Qingyu also felt that the nonsense of "looking for friends" was not sincere.
"Then you're not from the Sunfall Camp?" the man said.
"Obviously. Neither are you?"
"It's not. Are you from Star City?"
"It's not. Are you?"
"Me neither. The man said, "I'm from out of town." ”
"I'm also from out of town. ”
The man shook his head and said, "This 'parroting' game we are playing is not interesting at all. ”
"I think so too. Hua Qingyu covered her mouth and snickered.
"No matter what you're going to do when you come to the Falling Sun Camp, I advise you to leave quickly. Do you see the crowd at the door? They're here to get me. The man said.
"They're here to get me!" Hua Qingyu said.
"Girl, let's not play, okay?" the man was helpless, "I mean it, the people from Star City are spies on me, so they came to arrest me!"
Hua Qingyu's eyes widened: "Ah? The spy they claim, isn't it me?"
"If it's you, you should hurry up!" the man urged her.
"If that spy were you, wouldn't you lie here too?"
"No, I can't leave my friend behind!" the man said.
"I can't either, and I can't leave my friends behind!" Hua Qingyu said seriously.
"You girl...... "The man couldn't laugh or cry," "are you dazed by the sun during the day?
"Haha......" Hua Qingyu was happy.
"You can still laugh?" the man really thought that there was something wrong with the girl in front of him who had been learning to speak from beginning to end.
"Two, don't flirt anymore, come out?" suddenly someone shouted outside the grass.
"Oh no, I've been discovered!" both the man and Hua Qingyu were secretly complaining in their hearts.
The two were led to the door by the man. The two groups of people who were fighting withdrew their hands, and many of them had blue noses and swollen faces.
"Captain. The group of people who came to arrest people said respectfully.
"Captain Yu, do you still dare to deny it?" the man who grabbed Hua Qingyu yelled at one of the people in the Fallen Sun Camp.
The man snorted coldly: "Captain Wang, as the captain of the guard, you did not hesitate to lower your value and quietly sneaked into my Falling Sun Camp to search for people, but instead ordered a group of minions to deliberately find fault at the door, what a trick!"
Hua Qingyu understood, it turned out that the surname Yu was the captain of the Falling Sun Battalion Receiving Team, and the surname Wang was the captain of the Star Picking City Guard. These two should be equal. However, Captain Wang came to arrest people on the order of the city lord, and I don't know why Captain Yu dared to obstruct it.
"I knew you would do your best to protect this spy, hehe, how can you fulfill the city lord's order without some stratagem?" Captain Wang said proudly.
Captain Yu was very dissatisfied: "I said it all, this person is not a spy, but a friend of mine who came from afar." You've caught the wrong person!"
Hua Qingyu glanced at the man, it turned out that what he said was true.
"Hey, all the portraits have been passed to the city lord, and they say that they caught the wrong person?" Captain Wang took out a scroll and threw it away, and the image painted on it was the man.
"There are countless similar people in the world, is it necessary to be similar? Besides, who knows if the portrait is painted like it!" Captain Yu argued.
Captain Wang's eyes widened: "It's still 'the portrait doesn't look like it', are you playing with me? Come on, escort me away!"
"No!" Captain Yu stretched out his arm to block in front of the man.
"Brother Yu, forget it. I'll just go with them. The man said.
Captain Wang sneered: "Look, don't you recruit yourself, right?"
"I don't want to embarrass my friend, it doesn't mean I'm confessing. Also, this girl has nothing to do with it, you let her go. The man said.
Captain Wang touched his chin: "Don't you say that I forgot about this girl! Why, she is your best friend?
"Phew! a dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth!" Hua Qingyu scolded.
"Yo ho! the little mouth is quite spicy!" Captain Wang smiled maliciously, "Come on, your husband has been arrested, and there is no hope for him in the future, so you might as well follow me!"
"Captain Wang, I said, she has nothing to do with this matter! I have just met her, I don't believe you asked Brother Yu!" the man said hurriedly.
"I really haven't seen this girl. Captain Yu said truthfully.
Captain Wang pouted: "A nest of snakes and rats, don't believe it!
"You are so unreasonable, you want to arrest my friend, you also want to arrest the innocent girl, where is your conscience?" Captain Yu still has a sense of justice, and he also stood in front of Hua Qingyu.
"Captain Yu is really majestic. Suddenly, a man fell from the sky.
Captain Wang's group of people hurriedly saluted: "See the city lord." ”
Hua Qingyu sighed secretly, this Lou Zi is afraid that he will get bigger and bigger, and even the star picking city lord has appeared!
