Chapter 621: The Willing Ones Take the Bait
The gods used it to locate the large square pot.
The pot and the lid were reunited, which was secondary. He Lingchuan had to eliminate this hidden danger, otherwise the gods' attention would follow him everywhere, and he would not be safe no matter where he was in the world, and he would not dare to use the large square pot to his heart's content - if he could find a way to use it.
Secondly, he had to complete Zhu Erniang's commission and find its largest remains.
This thing was probably stuck in the array eye of the Xushan Gathering Spirit Array, so he had to find the array eye that was constantly moving first.
Finally, he had to try to make the order of Frost Leaf State Master in Nian Zanli's hand ineffective, that is, to prevent him from borrowing soldiers.
Of the above three things, the last one was the simplest.
The first two things should be done together, because the scene in Xushan would definitely be huge, and he might not have the chance to go there again.
Of course, the difficulty was also five-star.
From now on, he had to consider the problem of getting out after the matter was accomplished - this was the fourth thing.
It was not easy, especially with so many enemies eyeing him covetously. He Lingchuan sighed:
"Bring me some midnight snacks!"
...
The next day, He Lingchuan did not go out. He took his fishing rod and went fishing in the lake behind the mountain.
As soon as he walked out of the house, the little squirrel jumped onto He Lingchuan's shoulder and said to him: "The Lord of Songyang Mansion sent a message that the three hundred kilograms of frost-patterned iron you want can only be purchased in two days."
Two days later? He Lingchuan calculated the time and found that he had enough time.
Frost-patterned iron is a rare metal, and it is difficult for him to collect it himself, so he asked Li Qingge to raise it for him. Songyang Mansion is a major weapon refiner and has its own metal ore supply channel.
Songyang Marquis is indeed reliable in doing things, and he can also put it on account.
The little squirrel also handed him a note.
After it finished its work, it took the nuts and jumped away.
The mountains and fields are quiet, the lake is clear, and two silver-throated tits landed on the top of the boat and chirped.
The tiger also wanted to lie on the boat, but was ruthlessly rejected by He Lingchuan.
He had to think carefully about his next move.
Opening the note, there was Li Qingge's beautiful handwriting on it. The general idea was that there were too many uses for Liulijin, and it could produce different properties when combined with different metals, so it was difficult to generalize. If you had to break it simply and roughly, you could try extreme cold quick freezing, because this kind of thing is naturally not resistant to freezing.
Once frozen, it will become brittle, and the difficulty of breaking it will drop sharply.
Of course, Liulijin is a treasure after all, and a mere minus thirty or forty degrees is a piece of cake for it.
And the so-called "quick freezing" refers to within two breaths.
There are only a few magic weapons in the world that can create extremely low temperatures in a short period of time, but Li Qingge doesn't have any of them now.
She is the master of casting in Songyang Prefecture, and is good at solving problems. So after thinking hard, she also pointed out a clue to He Lingchuan:
You can't make a magic weapon of this level, but you can try to make a disposable talisman.
Some practitioners like to use talisman arrays and talismans, some are disposable, and some are regular and reusable, there are paper talismans, copper talismans, and jade talismans...all kinds of things.
Because the manufacturing difficulty of the talisman is the lowest, the consumable materials are the least, the effect is not bad, and the means of use are very flexible, the biggest disadvantage is that it is not durable.
Songyang Mansion can make the "Cold Jade Talisman" for He Lingchuan. All other materials are complete, but one thing is missing:
Frost Pills.
Only the Cold Jade Talisman made with Frost Pills as the base material can instantly freeze the Glazed Gold.
There is no substitute.
And Songyang Mansion's supply channels cannot get this thing, because it is a specialty of the Fu Realm and the quantity is very rare.
"Fu Realm?" He Lingchuan sighed. The Fu Realm is related to the Sea of Grass, and he didn't want to go there.
Now it seems that he has to go there. Because the array eye of the Xushan Gathering Spirit Array is made of Glazed Gold!
He Lingchuan leaned back, letting the breeze blow on his face, and began to consider the next question.
Whether you want to get close to the array eye of the Gathering Spirit Array or take away the sacred object of the Zhaixing Tower, there is a problem that cannot be avoided:
Torch.
This powerful rock fire monster is the patron saint of Xushan Mountain. It can be said that it is integrated with the entire mountain range. When it is awake, it knows that Xushan Mountain is missing a stone.
Once He Lingchuan breaks in illegally, it will definitely not escape its eyes and ears.
What's more, He Lingchuan still has improper thoughts about it, no, he has other intentions.
Facing such a behemoth as the Heavenly Palace, he can't take away the sacred objects of the Star Picking Tower with his own strength. So, can he borrow the ability of the Juju?
Then his top priority is to find a way to get in touch with this rock fire monster.
He wanted to find a way from the Ke family because his family is closest to Juju.
However, Lingxu City prohibits the private worship of Juju, and the Ke family also denied it, saying that there is no such thing and they are innocent.
In other words, on the surface, this Shanze has no statues or clones that will appear outside of Xushan Mountain.
Therefore, the way to find Juju through private worship is blocked.
Then...what if we go directly to Zhaixing Tower to find it?
Zhaixing Tower is open to all tourists during the day anyway, so He Lingchuan can go in openly.
But Ju Ju usually sleeps under the mountain, so why would he come out to see him?
And this monster is very intelligent, so it is possible that it will have some bad habits of smart people, such as being two-faced, or betraying teammates behind their backs.
What if it talks with He Lingchuan on the surface, but then turns around and sells him and his plan to the gods, what should we do?
Human nature is untrustworthy, and this rock fire monster... is also untrustworthy.
So, should we try to contact it?
The float suddenly moved, and another fish was hooked.
He Lingchuan reeled in the line and soon caught a shiny silver bighead silver carp weighing more than five kilograms.
Pianxiang Villa has been deserted for several years, and because there are weasels and other monsters sitting around, there are very few fishermen who sneak into the back mountain.
Now that the fish in the lake are stupid and fat, He Lingchuan can teach them that people's hearts are sinister by just using a piece of dough as bait.
Wouldn't it be great to make this chubby big head into a fish head with chopped pepper?
He Lingchuan was grabbing the fat fish and looking at it, when a laugh came from the shore: "Master He, what a skill!"
He turned his head and saw that Fang Canran was here.
He hurriedly rowed the boat to the dock and asked, "What kind of wind brought Mr. Fang here?"
Fang Canran pointed to the boy next to him and said, "I'm discussing a business deal with His Highness and I'm about to go back."
This boy is a servant of Pianxiang Villa.
In terms of status, Fang Canran is the chief steward of the Golden Horn family and is not qualified to have His Highness the Crown Prince escort him to the door in person.
Lingxu City is such a hierarchical and fortified place.
"How was the harvest?"
"It's not bad, you want to try it?" Big fish can be raised in deep water, not to mention that this deep lake has not been disturbed by people for a long time.
In just an hour, He Lingchuan had caught three big fish and more than ten fish larvae.
In fact, he was very diligent in casting bait, but most of the bait was taken away by small fish.
There are too many young fish in this lake, which is also a problem.
"Okay, I'll do it."
Fang Canran jumped onto the boat with a crisp movement.
He paddled his own boat to the middle of the lake, took the fishing rod from He Lingchuan, and skillfully took the bait and cast the rod.
"It turns out that Mr. Fang is also a member of the same hobby." He is a senior fisherman, unlike him who is just a guest appearance.
Fang Canran glanced at him: "Same as Mr. He, I want those who wish to take the bait."
They both laughed.
The laughter was not loud, for fear of scaring away the fish.
He Lingchuan set a pot on the small stove, lit a fire, and boiled water to make tea.
"The scenery here is really beautiful, and the flowers and plants are not over-trimmed. It's very suitable for cultivating the mind and character."
He Lingchuan smiled and said: "Yes, it's a pity that there are too many chores to focus on the mountains and rivers."
Fang Canran suddenly retracted his pole, and a small fish with the length of his tail finger jumped up and down.
"So fast? Mr. Fang is awesome. This kind of small fish likes to bait the most and is the easiest to get off the pole."
Fang Canran sneered: "If we catch too much, how can we allow them to run away from the pole?"
He simply used the small fish as bait, put it on the hook, and threw the rod into the water again. "Wealth can be gained through risk, but greedy talk and rash advances can lead to death. It's a pity that these little things don't understand until they die."
He Lingchuan clicked his tongue twice at the mirror in his arms: "What riddles are you playing?"
He Lingchuan smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Fang knows this well."
Fang Canran smiled slightly: "I've seen it a lot, so naturally I have some insights."
Soon, a fish bites the rod.
Seeing that the fishing rod was bent, He Lingchuan exclaimed: "It looks like a big fish."
Fang Canran was not in a hurry to close the pole, and let it swim back and forth in the water for dozens of seconds. When it couldn't swim anymore, he pulled the pole.
The fish drew a parabola in mid-air, turning its head and tail, very vigorously.
"What a big mullet!" It weighs seven or eight pounds, and the texture on its body is very beautiful.
"With this kind of thing, there won't be many fish in the lake." Fang Canran threw the mullet into the bucket. "Although big fish eat small fish, it's rare to eat them so ferociously. With it, there won't be many fish in the lake." All the little fish will be in bad luck.”
The mirror was dissatisfied: "What are you talking about? Aren't there two fish kings in this lake?"
"Oh yes, there are two monster fish kings in this lake." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "It's not the mullet's turn to cause trouble."
"That's good." Fang Canran glanced at him, "If the fish monster eats the mullet, the little fish at the bottom will have a chance to survive."
After hanging the bait again, Fang Canran threw the rod, and then both of them fell silent.
Only the charcoal in the stove was burning.
The mirror knew that the two of them were waiting for the other to speak first.
In the end, Fang Canran spoke first: "Master He, have we really never met before?"
"I don't think so."
Fang Canran shook the signet ring on his hand: "Where's this? Did you remember anything?"
He Lingchuan smiled: "Maybe I remembered it wrong."
Fang Canran sighed leisurely: "What a pity."
He Lingchuan looked at him and said, "Mr. Fang, will you stay for dinner? It was clearly agreed last time, but it didn't work out."
Last time, Fang Canran readily agreed and ran away early.
Fang Canran smiled and said: "Actually, I have to go to Yuexiang Villa to try the dishes. The new chef there is from Hejing. Well, they say that food is in Lingxu and taste is in Hejing. The ones in Lingxu City are good. At least 30% of the cooks are from Heijing, and Yuexiang Villa has hired this new cook, who is said to be the best at cooking water and land. "
"How about He Xiao come with me to taste the dishes?" He pointed at the fish bucket, "I'd like to use the fish you caught here to test my new chef."
