The astrolabe is indeed a great magic weapon, but as long as it is a human being, there must be opportunities for mistakes, laziness, and slackness!

No matter how subtle and impeccable things are described, as long as people are in control behind them, they cannot be 100% perfect.

He still doesn't know much about national affairs, but when it comes to human nature, few people are more proficient than him.

"Maybe we can figure out who is guarding the astrolabe. ”

But speaking of this, it was beyond the scope of his and Qu Yunhe's capabilities. They don't have much information in Shengyi, and they are strong enough to defend the country, and they won't have an organization like Hongyan Feishu to help collect intelligence.

Take another 10,000 steps back, even if there is, does the other party dare to accept this business?

At this time, they have to count on He Xiaokite.

The woman stared at the water map on the table for a long time before she whispered, "That makes sense, I'll give it a try." ”

She wasn't sure either.

Yan Saburo tilted his head: "Your first time in Shengyi?"

"Hmm. He Xiaoyuan didn't hide it from him, "Originally, there was no military order, and it was not easy to come to Shengyi." Of course, I'm still more active in the South. But there are also people to contact here, so you can wait for my news. ”

"There's another problem. Qu Yunhe pointed to the location of the Ganlu Hall in the map, "In the past, on the four eaves corners of the Fanghua Palace, there were specially refined eaves beasts, which would attack and call the police once outsiders invaded. ”

"And this kind of thing?" He Xiaoyuan was startled, but then his eyes rolled, "Will King Wei move them to his residence?" ”

Qu Yunhe shook his head: "The eaves beast only identified Fang...... The manna hall is usually hidden in the dark under the eaves. ”

He Xiaoyuan's eyes moved slightly: "Is there a way to deal with it?"

"Yes. Qu Yunhe didn't hesitate, "As long as you decorate your hat with red beads, you can avoid the alarm and attack of the eaves beast." In the past, in order to prevent outsiders from knowing this secret, the servants of Fanghua Hall were given a complete set of clothes, requiring a full set of clothes with hats, among which the hat must be decorated with red beads, if it is a palace maid, there must be a red bead hairpin. If other servants enter, such as bringing charcoal to the paywig, they should also change their clothes beforehand. However, the palace people didn't know why, they just thought it was the emperor's hobby. ”

He looked at He Xiaokite, "Don't bother the two masters, please help us prepare." ”

He Xiaoyuan nodded happily: "Any red bead is fine?"

"Yes. As long as the color is bright red, it is easy to identify the eaves beast. "There are many people who have gone out of the Fanghua Hall from the front, most of them are slaves, and it is impossible for them all to be decorated with rubies, red agate, and red coral.

"Okay. He Xiaoyuan smiled, with deep meaning, "Wrap it up on me." What else should I pay attention to?"

Qu Yunhe thought about it again: "It's gone." ”

￥￥￥￥￥

For the next two days, He Xiaoyuan did not show up.

Yan Saburo rolled up his sleeves, cleaned the house inside and out, and then tended to the cat, living like a normal home.

There is also stewed mushroom bamboo shoot sliced chicken soup on the stove, simmering for two hours, and the fragrance wafts all over the house. This small courtyard, which has been deserted for a long time, suddenly has a temperature and popularity.

Just bathing the white cat, from boiling water to drying the fur, it takes an hour at a time, and at this time Shengyi is in the spring cold, and the outside is freezing to death, he has to get charcoal in advance, carefully not let the cat catch a cold.

In this way, Yan Saburo seems to be still enjoying it, and he is not in a hurry at all. Qu Yunhe looked at him, and he didn't know how many times he was surprised.

This master of the Asura is really a bit ...... It's hard to put into words.

Yan Saburo combed the white cat, and the pond fire had dried all the water droplets, and the white hair became more and more fluffy. Seeing that it was so comfortable that it was half-squinting, lying motionless by the pond fire, the young man suddenly said, "Why don't you let the white cat enter the palace?"

Qu Yunhe was originally leaning against the door to watch, but when he heard this, he stood up straight: "What?"

"The astrolabe is not responsive to humans and animals, and cats may be passable. Yan Saburo patted the cat's head, "Qianqian has no way, and walking in the palace will not attract the attention of the fixed astrolabe, how about letting it explore the way or help you get things?"

Qu Yunhe's eyes lit up.

Yan Saburo is right, the Jingwang Palace is too big, and it occupies half of the mountain, usually birds, birds, snakes, insects, rats and ants are not less patronized, if every time one comes in, the astrolabe will not be waiting to see them, then the entire palace will not be peaceful.

Under the eager gaze of the two, the white cat slowly stood up and walked two steps, and then slowly stretched his waist before saying, "No." ”

Qu Yunhe was anxious: "Why!"

"Because—" Chitose looked reluctant, "this cat is a spirit, too." ”

"What do you mean by 'counting'......" Qu Yunhe was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood, "You let it practice?"

"Hmm. The cat shook its fur, "It's just a little insignificant, and I used some means to cover it up." "So in the eyes of others, well, including Yan Saburo and Qu Yunhe, the white cat is still an ordinary white cat.

"But we can't hide the astrolabe, so if we want to enter the palace, we have to make another calculation. ”

Yan Saburo said curiously: "Why?"

"What why?" the white cat glared at him, "Do you know how short a cat's lifespan is, how fast it ages? If I don't help it practice, I'll have to change my shell in a few years." "It's hard to say if there is such a fit at that time.

Besides, she also promised the cat's soul to give it some benefits. Not to mention cultivating into a demon, even the lifespan of spirits can be longer than that of ordinary humans.

In fact, what Yan Saburo wanted to ask was why she didn't tell him, but the words came to her lips and swallowed back. Qu Yunhe was entangled tightly: "Then you have to think about it again." ”

Yan Saburo stood up and walked out without saying a word.

The white cat hurriedly called out to him: "Hey, where are you going?"

"Serve you soup. Yan Saburo went to the kitchen, only the voice came, plain and clear, "The chicken soup should be cooked." ”

The spring bamboo shoots in this season have just grown, and they are dug out before they have time to emerge from the ground.

The white cat licked his nose, a little greedy and a little puzzled: he wasn't angry?

Yan Saburo is really not angry. Chitose has a lot of little secrets that she doesn't tell people, and this is just one of them. She helped the cat to practice in order to be more active, does this mean that she is ready to accompany him for a long time?

She has an awkward temper, and even if she has this thought, she doesn't want people to know, and she is afraid that he will think too much.

Thinking about this, his heart warmed slightly.

......

Before dawn the next day, He Xiaoyuan knocked on the courtyard door.

Qu Yunhe was already waiting a little anxiously, and when he saw her, he asked, "Have you found someone?"

"Not really. He Xiaoyuan sought truth from facts, "What we found was not the person who guarded the fixed astrolabe, but the guards of the incense burner hall. ”
