Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Machine

At 12: in the morning, Zhu Xianfen got up much earlier than before.

"Ah~~" Yawning, Zhu Xianfen walked out of the door. He was not used to having others dress him, and he could do the washing himself in the morning.

"I have a sore back. It's really hard to work on a business trip." While brushing his teeth in front of the mirror, he looked at his face, "I always feel that it needs some maintenance. Do I have to build a foundation early? This energy should be there It will be much better. Shangluo looks quite energetic."

Suddenly, he heard some strange noises coming from the top of the building.

"Huh? It's already midnight, what's going on?"

Just after brushing his teeth, he put on a cold-proof robe and went upstairs. Zhu Ling's door was ajar, with a large suitcase stuck in the doorway, and the sound of rummaging inside could be heard——

"What are you doing?" Zhu Xianfen knocked on the door.

"Ah??? Brother, why do you wake up so early? Don't you usually wake up after four o'clock?"

"You don't care what time I wake up - where do you want to go if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?" Zhu Xianwen put his hand into the crack of the door and was about to open the door.

Zhu Ling was inside and held the door. The two of them stood across the door and said, "Don't come in! This is a girl's room, how can you come in casually?"

"I saw it at the door, that ticket on your bedside table. Good guy! Go to New Antioch at five o'clock! What are you doing there!"

"I" Zhu Ling hesitated, only one word came out.

Through the door, Zhu Xianfen asked: "Where did you get the money to buy the plane ticket?"

"My aunt gave me the pocket money. I asked my aunt for the pocket money, and she gave me a silver check."

"Ah" Zhu Xianfen covered his forehead, "So, why are you going to New Antioch? If you want to go after Shangluo, you can discuss it with me. You shouldn't go by yourself."

"Eh? Did you say you can go after Shangluo?" Zhu Ling's eyes lit up, "Then can I say it's okay now?"

"???" Zhu Xianfen was stunned for a moment, "So what is the real reason?"

"I'm going to get Longlong back." Knowing that Zhu Xianfen didn't understand, she added, "That's the name of that panda!"

"Don't go!" Zhu Xianfen pressed the door and said in a deep voice, "I told you it was very dangerous there, you are not allowed to go!"

"You will regret it if you don't let me go! Really! You will regret it!"

"I have heard you say this reason countless times since I was a child! If you have the ability, just give me a reason, and I will immediately send someone to send you there at 30 times the speed of sound."

"Ah this." Zhu Ling got stuck again.

Zhu Xianfen let go of the door: "You are not allowed to go anywhere. Don't think you can run away. Do you think all the Jin Yiwei are just for a living?"

"Then it was the same when you were a kid, wasn't it?"

"I am me and you are you. If you want to be on the same level as me, this brother should be yours."

"Eh???"

Zhu Xianfen pressed his forehead: "What's the matter of 'brother is pawning for you'? I'm so angry. In short, you are not allowed to go anywhere. I will refund the air ticket for you and return the money to my aunt. I will ask. Now - Go back to bed!" After saying that, he left, leaving Zhu Ling with only a series of shouts of "You will regret it!"

An hour later, Zhu Xianfen walked out of Yuxi Palace with his head lowered.

"I'm so tired. I ran into that troublesome kid this morning, and the elixir I made was a mess again. It's like mud. Sigh."

The pill had burned, leaving only a sticky mass inside the furnace. While this was normal, I'd been feeling particularly exhausted lately. I gathered the spent pills and walked to the door.

The royal guards standing guard on both sides stood at attention and shouted in unison: "Follow Heaven and be benevolent!"

"Well, good morning." Although he was not energetic, he still said hello to the Jin Yiwei who was standing guard. Those who shout so neatly are usually newcomers.

He put the pill he had practiced into the passenger seat, and Zhu Xianwen sat on the driver's seat of the golf cart.

"Where are we going?" Holding the steering wheel, fatigue came over him. "I have business trips during the day and at night. I'm so tired. It's time to rest. If you have a rest, what should you do?"

On the passenger seat, the elixir that had been refined into a mess was still emitting a strange fragrance.

"This material is quite expensive. It smells so good. It would be a waste to throw it away. Why not use it for fishing?"

Ten minutes later, before dawn, a sneaky fishing rod stretched out from the grass without anyone noticing.

There were shallow ripples on the Taiye Pond, but no one noticed it. Under the moonlight, there are chubby carps swimming around in the pond, growing gratifyingly.

The sign "You must catch fishers, behead them if you catch them" is not far away. But it doesn't matter, the fish pond belongs to his family, and the carp in the fish pond also belongs to his family, so it's not a big problem.

"Ah! I'm so angry!" The grass trembled, "It's so mushy that even the fishhook can't stick to it. Forget it! I'm so angry! If you can't use it as bait, just make a nest!"

He raised his hand and threw the entire medicine box, along with a whole box of waste elixirs, into the Taiye Pond.

"Huh?" Zhu Xianfen noticed something was wrong, because a huge momentum was gurgling out, followed by an overwhelming fragrance.

"Wait. No way!"

He was about to reach into the water to fish it out in one quick step, but the last trace of "Waste Pill" had already melted into the Taiye Pool in front of him, and what followed was a loud roar from the side:

"Who! How dare you fish in Taiye Pond! Stop!"

Without saying a word, Zhu Xianfen took out a black pill from his pocket and took it, then rolled away with his fishing gear like a gust of wind. Only a few imperial guards were left in the distance, disheveled in the strong wind.

"That shadow is running so fast! Go and ask for General Fu!"

"Wait, fish! Fish!"

"What's wrong with the fish? Huh? Why are all the carps turned upside down?! Lu Qianhu! Something big happened! Someone poisoned the Taiye Pond!"

...

Pompelius Memorial Zoo, Panda House, New Antioch.

"I'm just waiting for you." At noon, Shangluo stood under the shining golden door and waited for Phaethon to arrive at the door. "Now I'm just waiting for you to rule out one thing, and the case will be closed."

"I guess it must be outrageous, otherwise you could have closed the case yourself. So, what's the situation?"

"I spent the morning checking everything inside and out. There seems to be only one possibility - our panda brother took the key to open the door and ran out. So, you can use the Sun Spear to detect it. If If it is true, then the situation seems to have escalated.”

"Huh? Are you kidding me?"

"Look into my eyes." Shangluo shook his head, "I'm really not kidding."

In the morning, I saw everything inside and outside Shangluo. He didn't need the Spear of the Sun to detect some subtle traces - the big ball used to rest its feet had the footprints of a panda on it, which meant that at least it climbed over the wall from the sports field on its own; there were hands and feet on the eaves in the corner. The paw prints used together indicate that it probably climbed over the outer wall on its own; there are claw marks on the kitchen door, the oven door is open, and half of the cornbread inside is missing, which indicates that it packed rations before leaving. Wait, the traces left in various places are only those of the panda brother, because the keepers all wore gloves.

Chapter 733 The water is not deep

"Well" Shangluo shook his head while eating lunch, "Actually, Rome has already surveyed the scene and used magic. But this reason is too outrageous, so there is no conclusion yet. I'll take a look, This is almost the same conclusion. Now we just have to wait for the artifact to verify it."

"By the way, what are you eating?"

"Ah, steamed buns. After inspecting the scene, I heated up the steamed buns that were not taken away and ate them. The taste was just average, not as delicious as the ones made by Zhu Ling. I took a bite to investigate the case. Forget it, I won't eat it." He Wrap the cornbread in oil paper, put it back into the bag, and take out the Spear of the Sun.

"Leave it to you, let's do some detection. Do you need a token? There is a panda youth group here."

Shangluo took out another oil paper bag.

"The packaging is the same, so you don't have to worry about getting confused."

"Who says it's not? Moreover, the green dumplings seem to be more fragrant than steamed buns. The steamed buns have no smell, and the green dumplings are fragrant." Shangluo shook his hands and threw the green dumplings in the oil paper bag to the ground. It is a solid green dumpling with no smell at all.

"Oh my God." Phaethon held the Spear of the Sun and closed his eyes. "If this thing didn't stink, I don't know how to explain it to my father. Just use the artifact to poke this thing, it's all To investigate the case.”

The green ball on the ground was used to activate the sympathetic detection of the Spear of the Sun - red silk threads connected all traces of the entire venue. Rice bowls, plastic balls, tiles stepped on when climbing over the wall, and a lot of green balls floating in the pool.

Phaethon opened his eyes: "What is this cat brother's name?"

"It's called Longlong."

"This Brother Longlong is really talented. He didn't run from the roof. He took a look at the height and turned back because he was afraid of heights. He opened the door with a key, went out through the door, and then turned his hand to leave the door as it was. Lock it up. The lost key is on the third level of the key rack in the breeder's office. If you check it, you will find that the key to the door is missing."

"." Shangluo pressed his forehead, "Do you think we should call back? Could this Brother Longlong be Jin Yiwei?"

"This shape can be pretended, but this Youth League is not fake. If it is a real person, eating bamboo would be really troublesome - by the way, is it too early to call now?"

"It should be around two or three in Yujing now. Let me check the schedule. Well, Lu Qianhu is on night shift tonight. It's okay to give him a call."

"Hello? Lu Qianhu? Are you free?" As soon as the call was connected, before Lu Huaiyang's voice could be heard, a series of footsteps like military drums came over the phone through the phone, and a hound was barking.

"Shangluo?" Lu Huaiyang was a little confused when he answered the phone, "Aren't you investigating a case? Do you have anything to ask?"

"Ah, I hear something happened over there?"

"Yes. Someone poisoned the Taiye Pond, and all the carp in the pond died. The guards who witnessed the whole process said that the poison was extremely violent, and the explosive effect caused the fish in the entire pond to turn their bellies almost at the same time. We rushed to the scene At that time, there was still a strange fragrance lingering above Taiye Pond. This fragrance is not poisonous, but it has not dissipated until now."

"Who is so bold? Aren't you going to behead people when fishing there? Why are there still people poisoning fish?"

"Ha!" Lu Huaiyang laughed, "It's a 'black shadow like a gust of wind'. Only the wrapping paper of the elixir is left on the scene. Ah, it's like this every time. Who it is, it's really hard to guess. .”

"Eh?" Shangluo blinked, "Is there any evidence?"

"No. That person is a professional. When I was running around on the subway when I was a child, I couldn't find him at all. But in the past, it was a trivial matter, and we just ignored it. This time. This time is different."

"No way? It shouldn't matter to him, right?"

"Ha!" Lu Huaiyang laughed out loud. "I also want this matter to be 'not a big deal'. But the koi in the Taiye Pond are raised by the Grand Empress Dowager! Each one is older than me. If the Grand Empress Dowager asks about it, we have no choice but to give him up. I'm wondering what to do. The Grand Empress Dowager usually lives in the Tangshan Palace, and I don't know how to tell her."

Over there, Lu Huaiyang's head almost exploded, and suddenly Wen Yuan's voice came again: "Master! Look in the pool!"

"What?" There was a rush of wind on the phone - like wind, but also like signal interference. There was also a group of Jin Yiwei who gasped in surprise and exclaimed. Shangluo could only vaguely hear the word "dragon".

"Eh? What happened?"

"It's a dragon!" Lu Huaiyang had just come to his senses, "There was a huge dragon shadow swimming down the water in the pool just now! (Jinling Yayan), Taiye Pool is just a landscape pool, and it is only 2 meters shallow. It’s less than a meter, so shallow that no one can be drowned, but the golden dragon shadow that just swam past was bigger than a whale, and it was so fast! As fast as lightning! It disappeared with a swipe of its tail.”

"Master! It's out again!"

"I got it - Shangluo, I'll hang up the phone first. I have to go get the fairy rope to deal with it."

"Wait a minute, Lu Qianhu, let me ask you a question - can pandas know Kung Fu?"

"Huh?" There was the sound of running from the other side, but the breath was not chaotic.

"That's it. Is it possible that some pandas are very smart and know kung fu?"

"If it were before, I would probably answer that it's impossible. But now... I don't know."

The phone hung up and Shangluo put the phone away.

"What's the situation?" Phaethon asked, "It seems like something big happened over there?"

"Someone threw something strange into the Taiye Pond. It seemed to be some kind of elixir - you know who that person is, so I won't tell you. The strange elixir ate up all the carp in the pond. Then when the Jin Yiwei rushed over, in addition to the carp that turned its belly in the pond, they also saw a dragon. There was a huge golden dragon shadow swimming under the water, and the pond was only about 2 meters deep."

[The water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, something terrible seems to have happened. 】

"What about the panda?" Phaethon asked.

"Lu Qianhu said there is no such thing, and the panda is definitely not a human being, and it is impossible to open doors and unlock locks. But judging from what happened just now, Lu Qianhu himself is not sure."

"Wait a minute." Phaethon clutched the Spear of the Sun and thought for a moment, "Someone. Panda, we know that someone has been refining the foundation-building elixir. So is there someone who has the elixir with someone? Contact, and contact with pandas?”

"Needless to say, we all know this person! The steamed buns she makes are very delicious, very delicious. I should have thought about why they are so delicious. Maybe she asked Longlong Ben Xiong."

Phaethon looked at the sky: "So the panda brother we are going to face, maybe he has eaten the elixir, and it is also the foundation pill, right! Ah. It's so good, so good. Why doesn't anyone feed me the foundation pill? Where’s Kidan?”

Chapter 734 Instinct

"How's it going?" Seeing the people from Shangluo coming out, little Pompeo asked hurriedly, "Have you found out? How was the panda stolen? There is no trace left except the panda's footprints. It must be Quite a clever criminal, right?"

It took Shangluo several minutes to make him accept the fact that Longlong was not stolen, but ran away from home.

"It's unbelievable. That panda actually got promoted?"

"And judging by your power level, that panda probably has demigod-level magic power now - doesn't Longlong usually look like there's nothing unusual about him?"

"Wait a minute, I'll call the breeder to help you ask."

After a while, the keeper came. You can tell by his eyes that he hasn't slept well in the past two days. He probably hasn't had a good night's sleep since Longlong "lost".

"So, is there anything unusual about Longlong? Is there anything unusual about his usual behavior?"

"Not at all." The breeder replied, "Every day I just eat vegetables such as pumpkin, cauliflower, carrots, and staple foods such as corn and sweet potatoes. The snacks are just a small piece of sugar cane a day, as well as apples, dragon fruit, and instant lemons. Compotes with cut fruits like that. In the summer, there’s also watermelon.”

【shocked! This is more healthy than you. I thought you were the only one who would be so bored eating steamed buns all day long. With you, I wouldn’t be able to eat meat at all. I never thought there was anyone more vegetarian than you. 】

"He's a panda! How do you compare with a panda?" Shangluo continued to ask the breeder, "Does he have any hobbies?"

"Yes. He likes to perform - let me explain first, we have never trained Longlong to perform animal performances, but Longlong himself likes to perform. Usually in the morning when there are many tourists, he will perform horizontal bars, handstands, and other performances on the tree. Stepping on big balls and the like. He also likes to eat in front of the audience. The more people there are, the happier he will be."

[Do you actually have an animal that you like to perform with? ? ? 】

"Well, this actually doesn't exceed the action logic of a normal panda." Shangluo explained, "There are indeed many pandas who like to perform, so this is no different."
