Chapter 379 [I have a plan! ]

Rong Yi put on a serious face: "Dabao, stop making trouble, there are so many people watching us."

Master Liao stopped crying immediately. His watery eyes widened, his face puffed up like a glutinous rice dumpling, and he said in a wronged tone, "Really?"

Jiang Lili asked Xun San, "Brother Xun, it should be convenient for me to take Dabao with me, right? Don't worry, he's very well behaved and will definitely not run around!"

Master Liao nodded his little head as well, like a chicken pecking at rice: "Don't worry, big brother, I'll be a good boy and not make any noise. Please don't chase me away, okay?"

Xun San wanted to say something, but when he saw the child's watery eyes, he swallowed his words back and said, "As long as he doesn't disturb our master, it's fine."

Jiang Lili held Liao Dabao in one hand and Xin Che in the other, and said to Rong Yi, "Brother Rong, let the two of us take care of Dabao. It won't be a problem."

Rong Yi showed gratitude: "Thank you for your help."

Jiang Lili and Xin Che brought Liao Dabao, Su Rui, and three Xin family soldiers with good cooking skills, and followed Xun San and the others through many twists and turns, and finally got on a carriage.

After driving for a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped.

When Jiang Lili and the others got off the car again, they saw a beautiful scene of mountains and rivers, and a courtyard with three entrances and exits appeared in everyone's sight.

Xun San knocked on the gate of the courtyard, exchanged a secret signal with the gatekeeper, and then led Jiang Lili and the others into this elegant courtyard.

Xun San saw the servants in the courtyard were all nervous and felt something was wrong. He grabbed a servant and asked, "Where is the master?"

The servant hunched his neck and replied, "The master didn't eat again today. As soon as he got up this morning, he ran to the waterfall on the cliff to meditate by the water. He said he wanted to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and guide it into his body."

Jiang Lili blinked when she heard that. Running to take a cold shower without eating, isn't that courting death?

[@江麗麗: We're traveling in an ancient world, not a world of immortal cultivation, right?]

Master Liao nodded at her, his big, blinking eyes also full of doubts.

Sheng Zhixing said that the third prince was superstitious to the point of obsession, and was obsessed with seeking immortality. He was probably suffering from the second-year syndrome again.

Xiang Hong, who was standing by, rudely grabbed the servant's collar and asked, "The master fainted? How on earth do you do things?"

The servant knelt trembling on the ground. "After the master fainted, he had a high fever that wouldn't go away. He kept saying 'It's almost done!' 'It's almost done!' I guess he was hallucinating and seeing immortals because of the fever."

Xun San became anxious: "Has the doctor come to see it?!"

The servant was also anxious: "Here they are, they were driven out by the master! The master does not allow anyone to enter his room and asked us not to disturb his practice!"

"He's in a critical period of breakthrough. If he's not careful, he could go astray!"

Xiang Hong and Xun San had a headache.

Xiang Hong questioned the servant, "Where is Taoist Priest Wu? The master has become like this, and Taoist Priest Wu, as the master, doesn't care about it?"

The servant wiped the sweat from his face and replied tremblingly: "Master Wu is missing!"

"waste!"

Xiang Hong loosened the servant's collar and threw him aside.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Jiang Lili hiding behind Xin Che, her face pale with fear, while the child named Dabao had a puffy face and tightly pursed lips, trying hard not to scream out of fear, looking sensible and pitiful.

Xiang Hong suppressed his evil spirit, pointed at Jiang Lili and her group, and instructed the servants, "These are the chefs we specially invited. Take them to the kitchen to cook."

"Let's cook the meal first and see if we can get the master to eat a few bites."

Xun San added another bargaining chip: "If the master can take the initiative to eat a few bites of what you make and not kick you out of his room--"

"I promise you a million taels of gold. If you have any other conditions, just tell us. We will do everything we can to accommodate you!"

Jiang Lili replied hesitantly, "Let's give it a try."

The servant took Jiang Lili and the others downstairs.

Before Jiang Lili left, she heard Xiang Hong and Xun San still talking.

Xiang Hong: "I always feel that the master that the master follows, Taoist Wu, is unreliable. He seems to be deceiving people and stealing money and land. I ran into him in a brothel during my last mission."

Xun San looked helpless. "We, the staff, have advised him many times, but the Third Prince won't listen. He even gets angry when we advise him, thinking we are hindering his immortality. What else can we do?"

The kitchen in the compound.

Jiang Lili decided on the dishes to be served today and gave a list of ingredients to the servants in the yard. Then the chefs got busy.

They had brought a dozen extra sheep with them just in case, and one was already in the yard waiting to be slaughtered.

The Xin family army and servants were busy slaughtering sheep. Xin Che took advantage of the chaos and slipped out to check the situation around the yard. Now only Jiang Lili and Master Liao were left squatting in the kitchen.

Master Liao squatted on the ground, drawing circles with a branch. "What should we do? We have medicine to treat fever, but Chuunibyou is hard to cure. The Third Prince chased everyone out of his room and wouldn't let them get close."

His eyes rolled, and a clever smile appeared on his innocent little face: "How about we put a gun to his head and force him to believe in science, or just shoot him dead and escape in the chaos. This way, we can also get rid of a rebellious son for Old Sheng."

"This is an alternative plan."

Jiang Lili used the burnt charcoal to scribble on the ground. "Didn't Instructor Wen teach us to find ways to maximize strategic effectiveness with the least amount of effort?"

She looked at the dark, messy pattern she had drawn on the ground.

Jiang Lili's almond-shaped eyes suddenly flashed with light, and she stared at Master Liao intently: "I have a plan!"

*

A quarter of an hour later.

Under Xin Che's cover, Master Liao saw that no one else in the yard was paying attention, and slipped into the room of the third prince Sheng Qingyun through the small window.

Master Liao put a piece of dry ice into a bowl and added a small amount of water. The dry ice sublimated and immediately released smoke.

The sublimation of dry ice will cause the temperature in the surrounding area to drop rapidly.

At this time, Sheng Qingyun was forcing himself to sit in meditation on the bed. His fair face was already burning red. He kept muttering: "Hold the Yuan and guard the One, hold the Yuan and guard the One..."

Suddenly, he felt a figure flashing in front of him, and someone stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him.

Sheng Qingyun thought that it was the group of mortals under his command who were bothering him again!

He was about to scold.

A childish voice came from my ears: "You are the one who called me here?"

Sheng Qingyun suddenly opened his eyes and saw a delicate and pretty child sitting on the round table in the middle of his room. The room was already filled with fairy mist.

He was originally feeling hot all over and felt that the air around him had dropped a lot.

Sheng Qingyun's lips trembled: "You, you are?"

Master Liao said in an unfathomable tone, "My name is Qingfeng. I heard your call while I was transcending the tribulation in the mortal world."

After saying that, he rubbed the magic fire paper between his fingers, and a ball of flame ignited at his fingertips!
