Chapter 277
He waved his hand and the closest person to him
"What else to think about? Just move everything quickly!" Cheng Hui's face turned red with excitement, and he rubbed his hands excitedly.
With a wave of his hand, the desk closest to him was put into the space ring.
Lin Qingyang looked at Cheng Hui's face with a funny expression of 'getting rich', which looked so cute no matter how he looked at it.
As for money, he has never lacked it, but he has never experienced the simple happiness like Cheng Hui.
"Are you happy?" he asked.
"Of course." Cheng Hui stuffed the last bookshelf into the storage ring with satisfaction. Whenever he thought of the value of these things, he couldn't control the corners of his mouth that rose wildly.
"If you like, I'll take you to a place where there are more and better treasures."
"Where are we going? Is it dangerous? If it's particularly dangerous, then forget it... Well, what I mean is that we should wait until we are stronger before going. There is no need to take risks now." Cheng Hui was still rational and did not agree immediately.
Lin Qingyang tilted his head and thought for a while: "It seems... not very safe."
In the past, he could have declared that his Demon Palace was the safest place. He even wanted to keep Cheng Hui as his mistress in his mansion, but unfortunately Cheng Hui died before he could do so.
Now... if he was still the Blood Demon Lord, his Demon Palace would of course be extremely safe, but he is now Lin Qingyang, and only Lin Qingyang. The Blood Demon Lord has not shown up for hundreds of years. Although he had made certain preparations at the beginning, his subordinates would not be obedient. Maybe they have already sneaked into his bedroom.
Um?
Thinking of the things collected in his bedroom, Lin Qingyang's body stiffened slightly. No... He had originally planned to give up his identity as the Blood Demon Lord, but now it seems that he has to at least go back and take the things away.
It was also because he had not thought it through at the beginning. Mainly because he did not expect that the last method would actually work. As a result, he was not fully prepared when he came to Cheng Hui, and he could only split his soul in a hurry.
Although his memory has been restored now, his soul has not yet fully recovered. This requires a lot of time. The treasures that can repair the soul are extremely rare, and it is not known whether he can encounter them.
Cheng Hui didn't know what Lin Qingyang was thinking at the moment. He touched his head and said, "Since it's not very safe, forget it. We are not short of money now anyway. Let's go after our cultivation level improves. Uh... is there still time?" He added guiltily.
"There's still time. Don't worry." Lin Qingyang answered confidently.
Not only did he have various defensive measures and traps in the Demon Palace, he also hid them in secret locations that were not easily accessible.
As for those little thieves who got in by coincidence... let's wait until they can come out alive.
"Let's go and see what those guys outside are doing." Lin Qingyang said lightly, remembering the previous shock.
Cheng Hui also remembered the vibration just now and couldn't help smacking his lips, thinking, that unlucky guy made such a big noise, is he afraid that he won't be able to wake up the sleeping god?
As they walked, Cheng Hui asked, "Where did the housekeeper go? What happened next?"
Lin Qingyang pondered for a moment and shook his head: "It's hard to say, it's possible that an enemy of a certain god has attacked."
What he didn't say was that even if it wasn't an enemy of the gods, the fairy palace floating in the void was very likely to encounter all kinds of accidents.
When the gods were still around, he could certainly deal with all the dangers, but if the gods were gone, then some "things" that originally did not threaten the Asgard would probably target them.
In short, he felt that unless the god made preparations in advance, it would be difficult for him to sleep peacefully and recover from his injuries.
The two were about to leave the secret room when changing words suddenly appeared on the sand table again.
Cheng Hui thought to himself, oh no, he almost forgot about this big boss.
The handwriting formed a sentence: There is something hidden in the wall.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang looked at each other in bewilderment. Was there something hidden behind the wall? Wasn't this housekeeper being too cautious?
He probed his spiritual sense into the wall. The bricks here did not affect the use of spiritual sense. Soon, he found a secret compartment hidden in the bricks.
Cheng Hui opened the secret compartment and found that it contained a jade hairpin, the kind that men wear on their heads.
The strangest thing is that the hairpin that the housekeeper treasured and hid away was made of very ordinary jade, not even good jade. It was the kind that was only worth a dozen taels of silver in a shop.
Something is strange!
Cheng Hui observed the jade hairpin carefully and found that there was a well-repaired crack in the middle of the hairpin. He gently rotated the hairpin head and applied a little force, and the hairpin was unscrewed, revealing the mechanism inside.
Inside the jade hairpin was a tiny piece of paper with only one sentence written on it: "Since you have no interest in me, I will give up."
Cheng Hui/Lin Qingyang: ???
What does it mean?
Happy breakup?
The two looked at each other, wondering why there was any need to hide such a simple sentence.
don't know!
At this time, the lily flower flew up, and the boss said that the lily flower belonged to him.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang had no objections. If it weren't for the boss, they wouldn't have been able to find this thing. If the boss liked it, he could take it.
He put the jade hairpin into the space ring where the boss lived. After a while, the boss spoke again and asked him to take the thing out.
Cheng Hui: ???
He thought about it and asked carefully, but he didn't expect that the answer he got was that he had used it up.
Cheng Hui was confused, but... never mind. He took out the jade hairpin again and played with it in his hand.
The boss, who didn't know what he did with the jade hairpin, fell silent again. The two of them left the housekeeper's residence and started looking for a passage to the central area again.
The huge vibration that just came from the central area made both of them a little concerned. No matter what, they had to go and take a look first.
After giving up the exploration, the two of them moved forward significantly faster, and even met some other wandering people on the road.
Those wandering warriors were very wary of the two of them and kept a certain distance from each other, but soon, Cheng Hui and the others would quietly use magic to quickly pass by them.
Jianghu Sanren: ??? Is your Qinggong so good?
They met more and more people on the road, and it was obvious that the shock attracted more than just the two of them.
There were more and more people on the road, so Cheng Hui chose to take a detour in order to maintain his identity as a local.
When the two arrived at the central area, they found that the layout of the central area was completely different from the outside. Compared with the very intact palaces on the periphery, this central area was like a small city destroyed by violence.
Most of the houses were destroyed, leaving only ruins. Only the temple in the center of the town, which was more than five stories high, still retained its complete form, but the outer circle of light was shaking, and many cultivators were attacking it.
"Hiss—" Cheng Hui took a breath and muttered, "These people won't stop until they wake up that god..."
Lin Qingyang observed for a while and shook his head: "No, that's just a temple. It should be where the gods work on a daily basis. He shouldn't be in seclusion there."
Oh, that's okay.
I thought to myself as if nothing had happened.
Several military leaders and martial arts masters were not around the aperture, pointing at it.
Cheng Hui noticed that a martial arts master put his fingers together to form a knife, and drew out a knife energy, but the knife energy hit the aperture, which was not good.
"It seems that this thing can only be broken by a cultivator." Cheng Hui murmured.
Lin Qingyang chuckled: "That's not good."
"Why?"
"If the military leaders and the people in the underworld don't have to do anything, then when the benefits are gained, what qualifications do they have to participate in the distribution?"
Cheng Hui secretly clicked his tongue. Is this going to be a fight due to uneven distribution of power?
At this moment, Cheng Hui suddenly felt a pressure.
Hmm? What's up, boss?
He wanted to take out the sandbox he had just put away, but found that his sleeve seemed to be pulled by something.
He followed the force of his cuffs and walked to the side. Lin Qingyang noticed his movement, followed him inconspicuously, and asked with his eyes: What's wrong?
Cheng Hui lowered his head and motioned him to look at his cuffs, explaining, "That's what the boss meant."
The two of them walked around the crowd and came to the side of the temple. There were also a few people wandering around. Seeing Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang, they thought they were also here to try their luck, so they kindly advised: "Don't waste your energy. The entire temple is protected by that light circle."
Cheng Hui nodded to indicate that he understood, but he didn't stop. The man shrugged and walked away.
The big man pulled his sleeve very lightly, as if he was afraid of being discovered by something.
Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang followed the boss all the way to the back of the temple.
Just as the man just said, the entire temple was protected by the halo, and there was no flaw behind it.
However, the boss didn't seem to let them enter the temple, but led them to the ruins of a side hall.
There was no one else here. Cheng Hui had already taken out the sandbox, and the boss used sand to tell them that there was a passage here.
Cheng Hui had an idea and followed the boss's instructions and quickly found the entrance to the passage.
The entrance was hidden in a small room. After opening it, a tunnel extending downwards was found.
The tunnel was clean and tidy, and it didn't look like it had been abandoned for a long time. Cheng Hui and Lin Qingyang looked at each other and decided to go down and take a look.
Judging from the direction the tunnel extended, the exit was likely inside the temple. Although I didn't know why a tunnel leading to the temple was hidden here, the temptation to search the palace of a god when no one else could enter was too great.
The two closed the entrance and quickly walked along the tunnel. The tunnel was not very long, and they arrived at the end of the tunnel in a short while.
There was a hidden door here. After pushing it open, they found themselves in a dim room.
The room was dark and windowless, the only light coming from a few orbs embedded in the wall.
The strange thing was that there was no other entrance to this room except the door they had come in through.
Looking at the various decorations in the room, Cheng Hui suddenly had a strange thought. He asked Lin Qingyang, "Do you think this place looks a bit like... a prison cell?"
Lin Qingyang looked at him in surprise, not because he was wondering why he had such an idea, but because... he had the same feeling.
Obviously, this room looks very ordinary, and there are not even any tools to restrain people, but he just has a feeling that this place was set up to imprison people, and someone must have been imprisoned here.
After the two entered the room, they looked around at the design, and the door behind them, which was wide open, closed quietly.
The moment the door closed, endless white light engulfed the two of them. When Cheng Hui woke up again, he found himself standing in front of a house, talking excitedly, with a handsome man standing next to him.
Cheng Hui: ???
Who are you?
