Xiao Xu asked in surprise, "Qimeng, why is your magic power so high now? For the first time in the cave at the back of Foguang Temple, you couldn't even subdue the spider spirit?"
Lan Qimeng smiled sweetly and said, "It's not that my magic power is high, it's that your own magic power is low. I just wanted to test you in that spider hole!"
Xiao Xu realized something, "Well, it turns out you are a hidden master!"
Lan Qimeng smiled and said softly, "I don't want to be a master, I'm just a little taller than you!"
Xiao Xu and Lan Qimeng left the maze and came to the Qinzheng Hall of the palace. They saw Jiu Chi meticulously reviewing the memorial. Obviously Jiu Chi had seen Xiao Xu and Lan Qimeng.
Jiu Chi put down the memorial, stood up and asked Xiao Xu with a smile, "How is the investigation of the demon in the palace?"
Xiao Xu answered truthfully, "The monster has been found. In the study of the seventh princess, a dragon robe was also found. However, the monster escaped and the seventh princess died."
Jiu Chi sighed, "I will take care of the funeral of the Seventh Princess. You continue to search for the late emperor's body and the White Dragon Cauldron!"
Xiao Xu looked troubled and said, "But all the clues are broken!"
Jiu Chi smiled slightly and said, "I heard that there is a misty mountain eight hundred miles east of the royal city. There is a cave at the foot of the mountain. The depth of the cave leads to the underworld, but there is a barrier to pass - the gate of the Purple Underworld.
, now you can go to the underworld and inquire about the whereabouts of the late emperor’s body and the White Dragon Cauldron.”
Xiao Xu asked curiously, "What kind of barrier is the Gate of Purple Underworld?"
Jiu Chi smiled and replied, "The Gate of the Purple Underworld is the only passage to the underworld, but ordinary people cannot enter. Only Taoist masters who have learned the art of concealment and Buddhist masters who have learned the indestructible body of Vajra
You can come and go as you please.”
Xiao Xu kowtowed and said, "I will obey the Holy Order!"
************************************
Xiao Xu and Lan Qimeng left the palace together.
Xiao Xu suddenly asked, "Lan Qimeng, do you want us to go to the underworld together?"
Lan Qimeng smiled and said, "I'm not going to that ghostly place. I'm going back to the Dream Forest. The palace is not fun at all!"
Xiao Xu smiled slightly and said, "There are many delicious and fun things in the palace. After I finish my business, I will take you to have fun."
Lan Qimeng curled her lips and said, "No matter how fun it is, can it compare to the Dream Forest?"
Xiao Xu said seriously, "The Imperial Palace and the Dream Forest each have their own fun features and different purposes, so there is no comparison."
Xiao Xu bid farewell to Lan Qimeng and headed towards Youwu Mountain alone.
This journey was very lonely, because there were no masters from the Buddhist and Taoist families in the court, and no candidate could be selected to enter the gate of the Purple Underworld, so everything had to be done by myself.
Xiao Xu used horses to carry dry food and water along the way, because the area east of the royal city was mostly wilderness and desert, and even if he had money, he would not be able to buy anything.
After walking about 800 miles, Xiao Xu saw a mountain towering into the clouds. The mountain was shrouded in fog, and the fog was purple.
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "This is probably Youwu Mountain."
Going closer to the mountain, there is indeed a huge cave at the bottom of the mountain.
Xiao Xu carefully held the prepared torch and sneaked deeper into the cave. As expected, there was a sparkling oval door at the end of the cave, with a vortex in the center of the door.
"This is probably the gate of Ziming Arcana." Xiao Xu thought.
So Xiao Xu urged Ming Wang Dharmakaya to move, threw the torch aside, and walked towards the door without hesitation.
After Xiao Xu entered the house, his vision went dark, and then his vision brightened.
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "Have I reached the underworld now? Why is it so bright?"
In front of Xiao Xu was another world, with blue sky and green grass. This was not the underworld. Xiao Xu suddenly realized that he was in the wrong place.
Looking back, the door behind him was gone. "Could this be a one-way portal?" Xiao Xu thought in confusion.
In fact, the mountain Xiao Xu discovered was not the Youwu Mountain, but the Hidden Mist Mountain. The door Xiao Xu passed through was not the Gate of the Purple Ming Arcana, but the Gate of the Hidden Mist. The Gate of the Hidden Mist is an ordinary one-way portal.
Xiao Xu saw an old man on the road, so he went up and asked the old man, "Old man, may I ask where this place is?"
The old man squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, "Are you a foreigner? This is Peach Blossom Village."
Xiao Xu cursed in his heart, "You damn old man, for such a common place name as Taohua Village, I don't know where Taohua Village is, and I can't explain it clearly!"
Xiao Xu asked respectfully, "Can you give me more details?"
The old man still smiled and replied, "This is Taohua Village, Baiyun Township, Qinghe County."
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "Qinghe County has never heard of it."
Xiao Xu asked again, "Is this Zhongzhou Kingdom?"
The old man was slightly startled and said, "I have heard of Zhongzhou Kingdom, but I have never been there. This is Zuiyue Kingdom."
Xiao Xu smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Oh, thank you!"
The old man stroked his beard, shook his head and left. Xiao Xu walked listlessly on the road alone.
Suddenly he saw a wine flag in front of him, fluttering in the wind. Xiao Xu's eyes lit up and he strode towards the wine shop.
I have been eating solid food and drinking cold water for the past few days, and now I can go have a hearty meal.
Xiao Xu ordered a few dishes and a glass of wine and started drinking.
I was really depressed today. I went to the wrong door and ended up in some bullshit drunken moon country.
Now I can't do anything serious, and I can't even go back to Zhongzhou.
Xiao Xu was tipsy, burped, stretched, and shouted to the boss to pay the bill.
Xiao Xu searched his body but could not find a single silver ingot, not even a copper plate. He only had a stack of Ming coins on his body. Looking at the Ming coins, his mouth opened wide in surprise!
I have become accustomed to being a prince recently, and I am not used to bringing money when I go out. This time I left all the dry food at the cave entrance of Wuyin Mountain. The underworld coins I brought with me were for going to the underworld.
Xiao Xu really didn't have anything valuable on him. When he left the palace this time, he dressed as a commoner and took off all the gold and silver jewelry on his body.
When the shop owner saw that Xiao Xu couldn't get the money out, he said angrily, "Why can't you, kid, if you want to eat the King's meal? Ah Zhao, Ah Cai, Ah Jin, Ah Bao, come out here!"
Four fat men came out of the store. They were all tall and thick, holding wooden sticks and clapping in their hands. The four of them surrounded Xiao Xu.
Xiao Xu was not panicked at all. With Xiao Xu's skills, even forty waiters were no match for him, let alone these four.
Xiao Xu took off the Lingwu Fulong Saber from his back and prepared to break out of the siege.
At this time, a charming voice in the store said, "This little brother, he is quite handsome, why don't you pay me? Our rules here are that you can eat without paying, but you have to work as a handyman in the store for ten days.
." I saw a beautiful young woman walking over with her delicate body twisted.
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "It's not good to eat other people's food and hit them. Ten days is not a long time, so just treat it as a way to experience life."
Xiao Xu smiled boldly and said, "One word means ten days, only these ten days!"
The beautiful young woman said, "I, Mrs. Rose, are famous for keeping my word and keeping my word." After saying this, she started to giggle.
