Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 296 Zhu Mansion
The tall man raised his eyebrows when he heard the words. Shi Qi always spoke in a measured manner and would not exaggerate. The golden ship was of extraordinary quality and used a lot of good materials. He knew how strong it was. He could sneak in the sea without fear of ordinary wind and waves.

The man grasped the key point, "Almost, but not yet."

Zhu Yuzhou smiled helplessly, "That's because I was lucky. I happened to meet two noble people when I was involved in the storm. These two people worked together to weaken the power of the storm, so I was able to avoid disaster."

When mentioning Luo Qingli and Lu Heng, Zhu Yuzhou couldn't help but say a few more words, "These two are brothers and sisters, not from Taibai Continent. They were also the first time they came back. They happened to be going to Baitong Fairy Island, so I gave them a ride. I also asked Uncle Zhu to arrange a yard in the mansion for them to stay temporarily."

Zhu Yuzhou looked at the tall man as he spoke.

The other party did not change his expression, he still lowered his head and was writing and drawing, and said nonchalantly: "There are many empty courtyards in Zhu's mansion. Since I am your friend, I would like to treat you well. There is no need to elaborate on such a trivial matter with me. You make your own decision."

Zhu Yuzhou was silent, coughed slightly and said: "Third brother, I experienced that storm personally. Mr. Lu and Miss Song are very outstanding in strength and temperament. They should have excellent backgrounds. They are If you go to the underground martial arts field on Baitong Island, you will definitely be among the best among the monks of the same level. Aren't you looking for helpers recently, why not consider them?"

Speaking of the latter, the tall man stopped writing, finally looked up at Zhu Yuzhou, and said solemnly: "Seventeen, my requirements are very strict. If I don't personally approve it, it will not be considered."

Zhu Yuzhou pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and nodded.

Baitong Xiandao is good at martial arts. Since the Zhu family can dominate this island, they will not lose to others in martial arts. The children in the clan pay great attention to their own strength. His third brother Zhu Yuzhen is the most outstanding martial arts among the Zhu family in this life. , has been the leader of the underground martial arts field several times. He is now in the late stage of Jindan, and will become the head of the Zhu family in the future.

Zhu Yuzhou had a very good relationship with this third brother on weekdays, and he was quite familiar with each other's temperaments. However, even though he knew his own temperament, in some matters, the third brother was still more willing to trust his own judgment than others. At most, his one-sided words can only be used as a reference for him.

Zhu Yuzhen added: "If you have time, take me to meet your two new friends."

"Okay!" Zhu Yuzhou was of course very happy, but after thinking about it, he still said uneasy: "But third brother, they are all my guests first, you have to be polite to them."

Zhu Yuzhen chuckled lightly, "I'm not a tiger, could I still eat people?"

……

Uncle Zhu brought Luo Qingli and Lu Heng to two vacant guest courtyards. The two courtyards were adjacent and relatively close, but there was also a certain distance between them, so that the monks' privacy could be preserved while It is also convenient for visiting.

The environment in the guest courtyard was quiet and elegant, and the layout was very exquisite. Luo Qingli and Lu Heng took a quick glance and expressed their satisfaction.

Zhu Bo bowed slightly and said: "Two seniors, if you need anything, just tell me, I won't disturb you for now."

It was probably customary to entertain such high-level monks. Zhu Bo's control was very appropriate and would not make people feel the slightest discomfort. After saying courtesy, he quietly left.

Luo Qingli looked at Lu Heng, who raised his hands high, stretched out, and sighed, "I'm really tired after a long journey, why don't you take a day off first?"

"Right on my mind."

Luo Qingli nodded lightly, and the two of them went back to their own courtyards.

Luo Qingli put down the restrictions on the outside of the courtyard and walked around the courtyard carefully.

Now that they were on someone else's territory, the relationship between her and Lu Heng and the Zhu Mansion could be said to be very shallow. Even if they were guests invited by Zhu Yuzhou, the Zhu Mansion had no ill will towards them, but there were still some aspects that they had to pay attention to.

In particular, I have seen the complexity and exquisiteness of the formations in Zhu's Mansion along the way. Even if it is just a small guest house, there may be some hidden formations.

After this exploration, she really discovered some clues.

There is a small Bagua mirror hanging in front of the door of the courtyard. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary mirror. It is just a decoration at best. However, in the Bagua mirror, there is a hidden formation that can peek into the surrounding environment. It is just very hidden. It is so ingenious that it seems to have almost no spiritual energy fluctuations on the surface, as if it is an earthly object.

Luo Qingli took off the mirror, played with it in his hands, and smiled.

Next, she walked around the house again. Fortunately, everything was normal in the house, and there was no spying thing like the Bagua Mirror. The small mirror at the door was thrown carelessly on the grass next to it. .

After all, this is the Zhu Mansion. She can't destroy such a small thing directly, so she can only keep it out of sight.

Luo Qingli might not be able to see it if she had just formed the elixir, but during those years in the Flame Mountain, she had devoted herself to studying the various insights left by the King of Medicine, and she could be said to have made rapid progress in the formation.

Luo Qingli sent another communication talisman to Lu Heng. Regardless of whether he discovered it or not, it was best to give him a reminder.

She believed that this was not Zhu Mansion targeting her or Lu Heng. The guest houses in this area were all similar, and they were mainly used to entertain Jindan monks. Each guest house should have a corresponding set of facilities, so come No matter who it is, it's the same.

The Bagua mirror was just hung in front of the door, and its function was to record the comings and goings of the owner in the courtyard.

For this kind of thing, Luo Qingli can only say that there is nothing wrong with it.No one wants to have their privacy peeked into by others, but at least there are no similar things in the house. Otherwise, even if the Zhu Mansion is the overlord of Baitong Island, she won't be able to stay there.

After cleaning up, Luo Qingli began to meditate and adjust his breathing in the training room.

It was already getting late, and Zhu Yuzhou didn't come to bother them again. Uncle Zhu only had to say something, saying that he and his third brother would prepare a reception banquet for them tomorrow.

Luo Qingli actually doesn't care. Next, she will stay on Baitong Island for a while, then go to the underground martial arts field to fight with the monks here, and then she should leave for Yingzhou.

I already have a plan in mind.

That night, Luo Qingli woke up from meditating and felt some subtle movements coming from outside, including the sound of wind and the tooth-grinding sound similar to claws scratching across gold and stone.

Luo Qingli's eyes paused, then he stood up and pushed the door open. When he saw the scene outside, he couldn't help but be startled.

She was clearly in the guest courtyard of the Zhu Mansion before, surrounded by courtyards of all sizes, but now she looked around, except for a lonely courtyard behind her, everything was desolate, and there was a thick purple mist in the air.

Luo Qingli felt something was wrong and subconsciously held her breath.

Xiao Wu in the spirit beast bag opened his eyes and said curiously: "Purple mist..." It quietly opened the tie of the spirit beast bag, and the thick purple mist from outside diffused in. Xiao Wu sniffed it, and it was a very special kind of mist. Strange fragrance.

Sigh, squeak!

It sneezed several times in succession. Luo Qingli quickly tightened the straps of the spirit beast bag and said, "This mist is a bit strange, so don't inhale it."

Xiao Wu nodded his head, "Master, what's going on?"

They had obviously been in the room and never left before. It was not clear what happened outside, so why did it suddenly change.

Luo Qingli was not sure.

She looked around, and found that the sounds of wind and scratching claws she heard earlier were gone, and the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, as if the movements just now were just to attract her out.

In the scorching purple mist, Luo Qingli's right eye silently turned into the blue of the sea. As her eyes moved, the surrounding scene did not change in her eyes.

"It's not an illusion, nor a deception..." Luo Qingli murmured.

Thinking of the traces of the formations she felt when she walked through Zhu's Mansion during the day, even if they were just the tip of the iceberg, she had some faint guesses.

"The drunkard doesn't care about wine." Luo Qingli sighed indifferently.

Xiao Wu blinked and didn't understand, "Master, what do you mean?"

Luo Qingli said calmly: "I discovered during the day that the entire Zhu family was covered with various formations. Although I didn't look carefully, the changes in front of me should be part of the formation. They probably wanted to lure me into the formation. .”

She sent a communication talisman to Lu Heng by the way. As expected, the communication talisman was useless and could not be sent out at all.

The other party is probably experiencing the same thing as her now.

Xiao Wu still didn't quite understand, "What's the reason for doing this?"

"Who knows?" Luo Qingli flicked his fingertips, thought for a while and chuckled: "Okay, let's go and see what's in front of us and what they are trying to sell."

Luo Qingli stepped into the purple mist.

She doesn't have to worry too much about whether the Zhu family wants to kill her. Not to mention that she has no enmity with the Zhu family. Even if the Zhu family is the master of Baitong Island, there will definitely be no shortage of Yuanying monks in the house who want to deal with it. The two of them at the golden elixir stage were just a matter of moving their fingers, so why bother to go to such great lengths, specially invite her to the mansion, and raise suspicions like this, just to lure her into the game?

Luo Qingli wanted to see what kind of medicine the Zhu family sold in their gourd.

As soon as she stepped into the purple mist, the courtyard behind her disappeared, and she seemed to have entered an empty purple dream. The surroundings were empty and she was the only one left.

But soon she heard a sound.

It was still the kind of scratching sound that made people's ears numb. Soon Luo Qingli discovered that pairs of green eyes slowly appeared in the purple mist. Looking carefully, he knew that they were actually... A large group of night cats were walking toward her with seductive steps, their bodies twisted, their claws scratching the ground, and they made a sound that she found very annoying.
