The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 838 Zi Chen
No wonder some people always like to use me as a raft to plan...

And maybe the witch just now was not really unable to attack me, but she realized that I was a "man from the future" and was unwilling to take the initiative to bear the "cause and effect" of changing history.

Zhao Chen's thoughts raced, and he figured out many things that he had not understood before. As he suddenly understood, he said to Zhong Ying beside him:

"I wonder what the price will be if I take away the 'Yaochi Chess'?"

Seeing the question, Zhong Ying tilted her head, held her cheek with her palm and thought for a moment, then answered hesitantly: "As the descendant of Taichu, you have a connection with the 'Yaochi' lineage. If you take this treasure normally, there shouldn't be too much 'calamity'... After all, it is also contained in the cause and effect of Taichu, even if there is a calamity, it will be in the future.

"As for taking it from the history of this secret realm... Considering that you have the affinity with the 'Star God', the 'history' is quite special... Well, I guess if you can complete this 'history', then you will most likely only need to go through a 'calamity' between the magical power and the profound.

"This is not a big problem for your current luck."

In fact, Fei Meng only had a vague understanding of "fate". She came to this conclusion because Qin Sheng had two real people teaching her and because Zhong Ying was taken from "her".

"The 'calamity' between supernatural powers and profound knowledge...will it encounter the 'military commander'?" Zhao Chen asked with a frown.

"It could also be a special high-grade magical power... such as Zheng Qingyan who possesses the 'Iron Yinglong', or the 'Evil God' Song Wurui who is in good condition." Zhong Ying naturally cited two examples that Zhao Chen was familiar with.

This is also quite scary, okay? Zhao Chen thought about it for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Let's find the place where the 'Yaochi Chess' is stored first. If it can 'complete' this history, we can take it away."

As for how to "get it done", he actually already had a plan in mind. At worst, he could sell it in the "Star Chariot" first, then exchange it for one day's usage time and put it there.

Anyway, when the time comes, it will return by itself, and there is no need to worry about others taking it away.

Zhong Ying roughly guessed his plan, so she smiled and said, "I just got some information about this, let's talk about it while we walk."

After saying that, she took Zhao Chen's arm and walked out the door.

Although Zhao Chen did not resist, he could not help but point to his armor and asked, "Will it attract too much attention if I go out dressed like this?"

"This is 'history'. As long as we, the future 'spectators', don't actively communicate with others, those who are not of high enough status won't notice us." While answering, Zhong Ying had already taken Zhao Chen through the palace gate and came to the courtyard outside.

Zhao Chen looked back and found that the plaque hanging in the palace was quite worn out, but the words "Zi Chen" could still be clearly seen.

……

Shortly after Zhao Chen and Zhong Ying left the "Zi Chen Palace", another figure emerged from the "secret passage" in the wall.

The man was wearing a dark grey cloth shirt and carrying a bamboo basket on his back. The brown spots on his cheekbones were very eye-catching. He was none other than the magical worshipper under King Liang, the "Thousand Scale Needle" Xu Qianlin.

After he walked out of the "wall", he looked back at the "road" he came from with a look of amazement, thinking to himself: "My ancestors' notes really didn't lie to me, there really is such a magical secret passage that can lead to history!

"It's a pity that when my ancestor was a royal physician, he discovered this secret passage and only used it to have an affair with the queen at the time... What a waste of talent!
"If this road still exists in reality, it would be of great use."

With a slight sigh, Xu Qianlin's spirit quickly perked up again:
“But now that I’m here, it’s a great opportunity for me!

"What's the point of the flesh and blood of the enlightened beast? How much of that thing do I need to exchange for a bottle of 'Brilliant Moon' level magic potion? Or the remains of the evil god will come faster!

"Also, other treasures in the palace must be obtained in advance."

Although Xu Qianlin was born into a noble family, he was only a member of a branch family. Otherwise, he would never have thought of obtaining all the treasures in the authentic history. That was a cause and effect that he could not bear. Even if he got it by chance, after returning to the "normal" time point, it would be corrected by history and erased on the spot.

After all, compared to correcting the changes, history still finds it easier to erase the existence of the changers and pretend that nothing happened.

As Xu Qianlin was lost in his fantasy, he did not realize that he had been enveloped by the "fragrance" and his body unconsciously walked towards the depths of the palace...

After a while, accompanied by a cry of pain and pleasure, the palace returned to peace.

……

On the other side, Zhao Chen and Zhong Ying’s first stop was the "Qinghe Hall" where the emperor worked.

After a quick check, they discovered that there was a magic weapon stored here, but it was not the "Yao Chi Chess" that the two wanted.

Moreover, there was a real person of the second level of "Dongxuan" sitting in this hall as the treasure keeper... but he did not "see" the arrival of Zhao Chen and Zhong Ying, the two "people from the future".

Even the “real body” couldn’t find us, but the “witch” in the Zichen Palace just now found us... What realm is she in?

Zhao Chen always felt that the witch was a hidden danger, but for the time being he had no way to deal with her.

The two discussed the pros and cons in front of the immortal in the "Qinghe Hall" and finally felt that it was not worth it to fight with a immortal for a magic weapon, even if the immortal's spiritual awareness was not up to standard and could only be regarded as a "defective product."

The most important thing is that there is a high probability that you can't win...

Shaking his head, Zhao Chen took Zhong Ying out of the "Qinghe Hall" and went to the "Qincan Palace" at the back.

That is the palace where the concubine was imprisoned as mentioned by Eunuch Cao.

As Zhao Chen expected, what was enshrined here was the "Gaoxu Qingming Natural God Chapter" of the Kunlun Yaochi lineage, and even the "Dongxuan" part.

The guards here are two monks, one male and one female. They seem to have only supernatural powers, but each of them holds a precious weapon.

"Two military commanders..." Zhao Chen's face was speechless.

Although he knew that there would be people guarding it, wasn't it a bit too much to place two "military commanders" here?
They also coordinate offense and defense, leaving no gaps for any enemy...

If I were to take away the great magical power of "Light in the Dark Night" just like that, I would probably be besieged immediately.

That being the case...

After a brief thought, Zhao Chen exchanged a cultivator from the "Star Chariot" and placed him in the palace, intending to wait for the two "military commanders" to comprehend the "Gaoxu Qingming Natural God Chapter" and then quietly follow them to read it.

Anyway, he just wants to learn knowledge, he doesn't have to get the original.

And this doesn't count as changing history.

Watching him prepare his tactics, Zhong Ying smiled and suggested, "Why don't we go to the pool where the eunuch mentioned the prince was drowned?
"Maybe we can find some clues."
