“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
The two of them led the way and soon arrived at a huge rock. The youth said, “Sir, this is the place. Once you walk into the stone, you will reach the outside world.”
“After leaving this place, we will reach the bottom of Yumu Lake in the south…’ the young girl said.
Xia Ji couldn’t help but complain again. The aristocratic families were really talented to set the entrance at the bottom of the lake.
The young girl continued, “After floating up from the bottom of the lake, the surroundings were very desolate, and there were very few people…” However, this is the latest map I prepared for you. It was only made by a survey cartographer last winter. It’s better than a military map.
I’ve prepared two copies for you. If one is damaged, there’s still one to look at.”
As she spoke, she took out two three-meter-long maps from her ” bosom. ” She quickly pulled out the cylindrical map from her chest with both hands and respectfully handed it over.
“Thank you, Miss.”
Xia Ji indeed needed this item, so he didn’t stand on ceremony. He opened the map and roughly understood what was going on.
Hence, he put it away and placed it into a spatial storage ring that the Su family had given him. Then, he walked towards the stone. In a moment, his figure disappeared into the huge rock.
In front of the boulder…
“Did you think that Mr. Feng would ask for your name?” The young man from the Su Family laughed.
The young girl was speechless.
“Su Shu, how could Mr. Feng possibly fancy you?” the Su Clan youth asked. Do you know why I wanted to snatch the spot to lead the way for Mister Feng?” The young girl was speechless.
‘ I saw how you were snatching, so I knew what you were thinking. That’s why I came to see you make a fool of yourself. As expected, hahaha. ” The young girl was speechless.
Suddenly, the figure that disappeared from the boulder appeared again.
The smile on the young man’s face froze…
Both of them were shocked.
“Thank you, Miss Su Shu,” said Xia Ji.
After saying that, he turned around and left the mezzanines where the Su
family was located.
Phew …
Whoosh .
A few bubbles flew up and disappeared in an instant.
At the bottom of the cold and dark lake, the lakebed was filled with gravel, and the water grass was twisting. The fish in the grass were shocked and looked at a strange species that suddenly appeared at the bottom of the lake.
The water pressure came from all directions. Every hand and foot felt sticky.
Xia Ji’s Genuine Qi burst out from his body, pushing the water around him away and creating a bubble.
As the bubble rose to the surface, Xia Ji looked around.
There was water everywhere, and there was a piece of land far to the east. He noted down the surrounding terrain and then quickly headed towards the land.
According to the map,
He passed through a few villages and towns.
The strange thing was that many farmlands and houses in these villages and towns had been washed away. It was obviously a bad year, and it was the midsummer season with floods.
There were many refugees on the road.
Many people were crying bitterly.
He saw them all.
When he encountered someone who was poisoned by the water and was lying on the roadside, being shaken by a child and shouting, ” Dad, don’t die! “, he would directly go forward, holding the Judge Brush in his hand. Borrowing the power of the Yama’s Book of Life and Death in the void, he would draw a life talisman and insert it into the body of the dying refugee. Then, he would listen to the child’s surprised cry and leave silently.
When he encountered a family that had lost all their money and was crying in each other’s arms, he would casually take out a handful of broken gold pieces from his interspatial ring and throw them over. Then, he would walk away again while listening to the sounds of surprise.
Gold had no use in the aristocratic families. It was just a raw material used to build flowerbeds. In the Third Heaven, the accumulation of gold was like sand and stones in the mortal world. No one cared about it at all. Therefore, he brought a lot of it before he left.
If he happened to encounter water bandits, he would casually pluck a few leaves from the top of his head, fill it with Genuine Qi, and fly far away.
As a result, many of the women who were captured by the water bandits saw a few cuts on the necks of these cruel water kings. They hugged their necks and cried out in pain. Their eyes were filled with fear, as if they were looking around for the person who had attacked them. However, they could not find anyone, so they fell to the ground.
The women who were caught struggled hurriedly, trying to break free from the tight ropes. However, as soon as they moved, they realized that the ropes had broken.
The women looked around, trying to find their savior, but there was no one around.
Xia Ji had already left.
He came to the outskirts of Juye City and rowed to a manor on the water. This was a manor that belonged solely to the Su family. All the surrounding ” big shots ” were informed through various channels that ” the owner of this manor is a big shot, but this big shot likes peace and quiet all his life and cannot be disturbed. ‘
Pa da…
Before the boat reached the shore, it was as if it had hit an invisible air shield that isolated everything from afar. From this angle, everything inside seemed to be immersed in fog and could not be seen clearly.
” The aristocratic families are indeed cautious when handling matters. However, it’s naturally great that they can allocate the Emperor Teacher’s residence. ‘
Xia Ji had already been informed of the ” key ” by the family head.
This ” key ” was a silently visualized image of ” two dragons playing with a pearl “. Only the master and himself knew about it. This was the only way to maintain the Emperor’s teacher’s absolute mystery and safety. However, this manor that should have belonged to his enemy had benefited him.
Thus, Xia Ji began to visualize, and soon, it resonated with the Xuan formation in the manor.
The air shield opened, allowing the small boat to enter.
“This can be considered a manor built according to the Xuan formation. If you don’t know the key, you won’t be able to enter no matter what.”
The boat docked.
He entered the manor.
The style of the manor was different from that of the aristocratic families. It was not luxurious, but filled with extreme tranquility and beauty.
Lotus flowers, willows on the lake, small bridges, flowing water, exotic flowers and plants, everyvvhere was like an ink-wash scenery…
