The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 325 Conspiracy and Reason ([-] in [-])

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open a crack. Qiao Xi let "Purple Fire" cover his whole body, then pounced forward and entered the main hall of "Wutong Courtyard".

While rolling, he had already scanned the main hall with the help of his "spiritual sense", and found that except for the simple layout, there were no other abnormalities. Then he stabilized his body, and while on guard, he looked out. made a "safety" gesture.

Seeing this, the other team members covered each other and filed in, leaving only two people at the door to guard their retreat.

Since the hall was not big and did not have many decorations, the members of the "Foreign Camp" team quickly searched it, but did not find the target object, so they had to focus on the three rooms connected to the hall.

That is a master bedroom and two small rooms.

"Where is the 'Phoenix Crown' mentioned in the 'Rule Book'?" After thinking about it for a while, Qiao Xi decided to search the master bedroom first, which was the room where the master of this "cold palace" lived.

Qiao Xi made a gesture, and the two men immediately understood and followed his footsteps.

These two people are named Zhang Lin and Han Qian. They have seven or eight orifices respectively. They are second only to Qiao Xi in terms of combat power in this team.

Zhang Lin's superpower is innate. He can emit golden light from his body. It is somewhat similar to the "Golden Light Curse" of the Dragon and Tiger Sect. It can not only defend against certain attacks, but also has the miraculous effect of warding off evil spirits and removing darkness. It is considered to be the best " Human shield".

Han Qian's superpowers came from the pill he took when opening his "ear acupoints", which allowed him to have a connection with a certain evil spirit in the "Xinguang Temple" and he could hear things that others could not hear.

As soon as the three of them entered the "master bedroom", a thick fog gathered, causing the scene in the house to change instantly.

Zhang Lin immediately activated the "golden light" on his body to the extreme, and Han Qian also took out his treasured life-saving charm.

However, Qiao Xi waved his hand and asked them to calm down and wait until they see the situation.

He had a hunch that this "weird" place seemed to want the people captured by it to know the past of "Luoyue City".

I saw a figure named Pinpin Tingting walking into the room. She had silver hair and red eyes, and a proud figure. In terms of appearance alone, she couldn't compare to that little girl Ning Meng, but her figure was comparable to Ning Meng's master Mo Qiu.

This is obviously one of the "princesses".

The princess walked to the bed, glanced contemptuously at the haggard figure on the bed, and said coldly:

"Aren't you still willing to hand over that magic weapon?

"Master Song will marry me and my sister as his concubines in a day or so. If there is a magic weapon with me, I will be able to gain a better foothold in Master Song's harem."

The person on the bed did not answer when he heard the words, but turned his head directly.

The princess seemed to be irritated. She stepped forward and lifted the neck of the scrawny figure on the bed, and said with a ferocious face:
"Are you still thinking that your father can come to save you? Haha, that's just wishful thinking!
"Although my father loves my sister very much, he really wants to get rid of you..."

"Now that all the countries in the Western Region have turned into 'endless deserts', your connection with the 'Phoenix' family has also been severed... So, don't have any more delusions!

"Hand over that 'Phoenix' magic weapon, and I'll give you a break and save you from this endless pain."

The figure on the bed was silent for a long time, and finally said in a hoarse voice: "Call Lan Xi, I can only give my things to her..."

Upon hearing this, the princess immediately raised her eyebrows and slapped the woman on the bed, causing her to curl up in pain.

"To my sister? Haha, do you want to know how my sister is doing now?" The princess took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, asking with a half-smile.

The woman on the bed suddenly raised her head, her eyes seemed to be burning with fire, and asked eagerly: "What happened to Lan Xi?"

"It's nothing... It's just that she went to have a private meeting with her lover before her wedding, and was stabbed by him with a knife... Tsk, tsk, my father was very angry when he found out about this. If she had to win the Lord Song's favor, maybe she We are all here to accompany you." The princess said with a smile.

"That person... was also arranged by you?" The woman on the bed immediately understood the truth.

"That's right... I originally gave my sister a way to survive, but it didn't work for her... She clearly loves her so deeply, so why wouldn't she want to elope with that person? So she can only enjoy her lover's love in advance. betrayed!

"It's a pity. If she hadn't died, Master Song might have traced her, and the knife wouldn't have missed her.

"But even so, my sister's spirit has collapsed. Do you think Lord Song will like it when he sees her like this?"

The woman on the bed closed her eyes, and two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, but she quickly stopped her tears. When she opened her eyes again, there was only a cold look in her eyes.

"In that case... As you wish! I will give you the 'Phoenix Crown', and I just ask you to treat Lan Xi kindly..." The woman lowered her eyes, as if she was hiding something.

"Very good! Very good! It should have been like this a long time ago... Lan Xi is my sister after all, I will definitely take care of her!" The princess's face suddenly improved and she kept saying.

There was unconcealable pride in her tone.

"The 'Phoenix Crown' is my 'natal magic weapon'... I will take the initiative to condense it. You can just take it from my chest after my death..." the woman said lightly.

At the same time, she was mumbling to herself.

But what was specifically said, Qiao Xi and others, who had been watching, did not hear clearly.

At this time, the scene around them suddenly shattered, and the appearance of the bedroom returned to the eyes of Qiao Xi and the others. On the bed, there was a tattered crown quietly placed, with a phoenix sculpture on it, and the pattern of the silver moon could be faintly seen. Unfortunately, Because of the severe damage, it is impossible to identify it clearly.

Qiao Xi let the "Purple Fire" wrap around her palm and gently picked up the "Phoenix Crown". She found nothing unusual and was relieved.

Then, he would ask Zhang Lin and Han Qian, who were traveling with him, to leave the place.

But at this moment, a mutation arose.

I saw a noble and terrifying demonic bird appearing out of thin air. It had a chicken head, a swallow jaw, and a black body. Except for the wrong color, it looked like a phoenix!
Its wings spread out, and countless black flames hit Qiao Xi and others like bullets.

"Run!" Qiao Xi didn't care about anything else and immediately ran out as fast as he could in his life. Han Qian and Zhang Lin beside him did the same.

But after all, they are just "Aperture Refining" monks. No matter how fast they are, they can't be faster than the "Black Phoenix". They can only watch the black flames hit their backs and sink into their bodies.

With faces full of despair, the three of them were about to face the end of their fate.

But to their surprise, after waiting for a long time, there was no pain.

After coming back to their senses, Qiao Xi and the others lowered their heads and used their "spiritual senses" to check their bodies, but found nothing wrong with them.

And the "Dark Phoenix" that suddenly appeared at the end also disappeared...

Everything is like a dream.

Qiao Xi touched his chest. Although he didn't notice anything strange, he always felt that there was something more here.

Han Qian and Zhang Lin also made the same move.

They looked at each other, and finally Qiao Xi, as the captain, said: "It's not an illusion... that 'Black Phoenix' must have given us something...

"Moreover, it is probably the source of the mutation in Luoyue City." Han Qian nodded and said: "The information we currently have is too little, and we don't know who this person is in Wutong Courtyard... So We can’t tell what she gave us…

"But since it doesn't kill us immediately, it's just a 'weird' trick to play on us!"

Zhang Lin interjected at this time: "One person is short-term, two people are long-term... Since we can't analyze it, for example, we should go back to the main hall of the palace first and ask the master of the Mo Palace to inform the 'Blood Sword Master'.

"Since Mr. Chen is capable, he should work harder!"

Speaking of this, his tone unconsciously had a hint of sarcasm.

Who would have thought that captain Qiao Xi nodded seriously and said: "That's right... let's do it!"

Han Qian and Zhang Lin were both stunned and asked in surprise: "Are you going to the other princess's palace?"

"There's no need to go... In our current state, if something happens, we won't be able to fight anymore...

"It's better to rest in this cold palace until dawn."

……

After another day came, in the main hall of Luoyue Palace, Feng Cang, Zhao Zhan, Mo Qiu, Ning Meng and others not only waited for the "Irregular Battalion" team returning from Wutong Courtyard, they also unexpectedly discovered that the Thai and Western team The Lord's team also came from the direction of the harem.

After the three parties met, they naturally exchanged information first.

First, it was Ning Meng who took out the page of the "rule book" and showed the two new rules from last night and this day:

"The wedding dress flew into the Yuehua Palace, and it won Princess Fengguan's joy."

Zhang Lin, who was still glowing with golden light, said in surprise: "'The wedding dress flew into the Yuehua Palace'? What does this mean?
"Where did you get the wedding dress?"

Captain Qiao Xi glanced at the newly-appeared Taixi team and asked thoughtfully: "Did you take action last night?"

"Painter" Li Wei nodded and said: "Our team went straight to the outside of Yuehua Palace last night, and then the blood-stained wedding dress in our hands automatically flew in."

"But you haven't read the 'rule book' in Miss Ning's hand, have you? How do you know where to send the wedding dress?" Han Qian also interjected and asked, her tone full of doubts, "Do you have similar rules? Book'?"

Levi shook his head and said solemnly: "I have prophecy spells... This is the only 'way out' I see."

Qiao Xi considered it carefully and said: "In the strange realm, the predicted results are often what the 'weird' wants you to know."

"I understand...but we have no other choice...right?" Levi sighed helplessly, and then told the story of what he and others had experienced in the clothing store before, and finally said:
"After we got the blood wedding dress, an evil spirit with a terrifying aura suddenly appeared. The three of us third-level wizards...well, that is, the Gangsha monks of Daxia...the three of us joined forces, and we could only barely take it. It struck a blow.

"Fortunately, the evil spirit seemed unable to leave the shop, so we had a lucky escape."

After hearing these words, Qiao Xi said after careful consideration: "I guess the previous sentence in the rules 'Wait until dawn in the Yuehua Palace', if someone went there at that time, they would also get information about the wedding dress..."

Having said this, he glanced at Zhao Zhan and Feng Cang a few times and saw that they had no "consciousness" at all, and then continued: "But because no one 'listened', the subsequent 'rules' were accordingly Variety.

"No wonder the contents of Miss Ning's 'rule book' can only be understood as time goes by... This 'unexpected realm' is probably adjusting the 'rules' at any time based on our actions."

Everyone was silent for a while. After all, this was not good news, which meant that it probably had "wisdom" rather than simple "rules".

"Then... should we abide by the latest rule of 'Princess's pleasure in winning the phoenix crown', hand the phoenix crown to the princess, and gain her favor?" Zhang Lin looked at his captain and broke the silence.

Qiao Xi did not answer, but turned her attention to Mo Qiu and asked, "Master Mo, what do you think?"

……

"When the sun rises at night, it stalks ghosts and eats people,

“No ghost should knock on the door in the middle of the night.

"Six days and seven nights to the palace,

"Waiting for dawn in Yuehua Palace.

"The phoenix crown falls in the Wutong Courtyard at night,

“The wedding dress is lost in the day and the promise is fulfilled.

"No stranger will enter the Huaijiao realm,

"The bride price is introduced to Yueting.

"The wedding dress flew into the Yuehua Palace,

"Princess Fengguan is successful."

On the streets of Luoyue City, Zhao Chen, who was riding a black tiger, recited the ten "rules" he had learned so far and said with a smile:
"My opinion? My opinion is not to give... For a thing that intends to kill us, is its happiness important?

"When it is playing with us, do we have to take the initiative to cheer it up?"

After Gong Yun listened to the information obtained by each of the two teams last night, she asked curiously through her "voice": "Have you known for a long time that the source of the destruction of this kingdom is the person in Wutong Courtyard?

"Also, is the strange carrier really the little princess's lover?"

In her opinion, the mother-in-law of the little princess in the cold palace must have launched some terrible ritual before she died, causing changes in the entire royal city. This led to "True Monarch Demon Cloud" taking action to completely destroy it. erase.

But here comes the problem. What she had guessed before was that the little princess's lover ran away from the royal city after getting into trouble and therefore survived. Later, when he returned, he found that his lover and home had been destroyed, and this became the carrier of the strange...

But judging from the news coming from Wutong Yuan, something seems wrong... That person was arranged by the eldest princess, and he stabbed his lover... How could he have feelings for the little princess?

Without extreme emotions, how could he attract weirdness?

"Who said that person's lover is a little princess?" Zhao Chen asked with a smile.

Gong Yun was stunned for a moment, and then realized something.He took a breath and said: "That princess is really not a human being!

"Did she let her admirer seduce her sister?"

Zhao Chen nodded indifferently and said: "From the news I got, it is indeed the case..."

I've been ridden by you, why didn't I find out where you got the news from?After Gong Yun cursed, she suddenly thought that Zhao Chen could hear it, so she quickly changed the subject and said: "No one can enter the Huaijiao realm... We seem to have reached the street next to Huaijiao Street..."
