Chapter 36 Master is here
No matter what, the most important thing now is to find a way to leave this man.
As long as he could let the previous immortal man, the Immortal Emperor that Da Ling mentioned, know that he was in trouble, then he would definitely not ignore the body of Da Ling that he cared about.
He will definitely come to the rescue.
Now this bastard Yan Gubei is staring at me.
So the best way now is to find a way to trick him into going back to the house in Xianren Mountain with me. Once I put the box on the tree, I will be saved.
Moreover, the Immortal Emperor also said that as long as he was not devoured by the great spirit within this month, he would allow himself and Ren Xiaoyao to leave freely.
Is there anything more to your liking than this?
Thus, a carefully planned route was formed in Shadow's mind.
That's it!
Not long after she finished her plan, there was a knock on her door.
"What's up?\"
"Princess, the chef has prepared a meal for you and is waiting at the door."
Only then did Shadow remember the round-faced fat imperial chef who had stepped aside and said he would make him a hangover-relief snack.
I just went through the farce in the cabin and didn’t even have the chance to taste those precious delicacies. Well, no matter what, after traveling to this era, I must taste the skills of the top chefs of this era, right?
\"Come in!\"
Just as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, led by the round-faced fat chef, followed by a group of servants.
\"Princess, your hangover remedy is here.\"
Shadow was like a Qing imperial concubine, leaning on the soft couch in the side room, lazily eating grapes:
"Leave it there, everyone, retreat. I need to rest for a while."
The round-faced fat chef and his servants walked into the room one by one and placed plates of covered side dishes on the square table in front of the couch where Shadow was lying.
Then the servants withdrew one by one, even the soldiers guarding the door left, leaving only the round-faced fat chef.
"Back off~"
Seeing that the chef was still standing there, Shadow thought, considering his previous actions that showed his tact, that he was taking the opportunity to show his loyalty or something, so he didn't scold him.
But after Shadow finished speaking, the round-faced fat chef still stood still, and even looked directly at her without any hesitation.
This made Shadow feel weird all of a sudden, and a sense of unease came over him.
And for some unknown reason, the door of the wing room suddenly closed by itself.
The shadow could see clearly that no one closed the door, it closed by itself.
If it wasn't a ghost, then someone must have secretly used internal force to lock it up.
Certainly not the shadow itself.
She and the fat chef were the only ones left at the scene. Could it be that he was the one who locked her up?
No, he doesn't look like someone who knows martial arts.
"what are you up to?"
After all, she is a queen. Although she feels a little uneasy, her ability to control the situation and her aura are unparalleled.
"Even Master can't recognize you?"
? !
Master? !
Shadow stared straight at the person in front of him and looked at him carefully several times. No matter how he looked at him, this person looked like the round-faced fat chef from before. How could he say such a thing?
No, although it looked like the same chef as before, a careful look revealed a clue. This man's hands were covered with calluses, and he was obviously a martial artist. The imperial chefs were kept in the palace, responsible for serving meals to princes and nobles. Naturally, their own food, clothing and daily expenses would not be too bad, and most of the imperial chefs had smooth and delicate hands.
So it seems that this person used a disguise technique? !
And isn’t the sect that I belong to, Duanling Pavilion, the originator of the art of disguise?
"As my chief disciple, you can't even recognize this level of disguise. How dare you eat and drink here? You have embarrassed me completely. Aren't you ashamed?"
This tone, this voice, even though she had traveled through time, she still had the memories of the original owner. Isn't this the voice of her master, Old Ancestor Duan Ling?
At first it was the disguised voice of the fat, round-faced chef, and now it was his real voice.
After Shadow came here, she had not yet met him formally. She only knew through the original owner's memory that she was the chief disciple of Duanling Pavilion. Her master, the old man Duanling, sent her out to find the fragments of the Soul Refining Stone scattered in the four realms. As for the use of the fragments, the master did not tell her, but gave her a compass that was more advanced than the ordinary Duanling Pavilion disciples. In addition to the ordinary Duanling Pavilion compass's functions of connecting yin and yang and searching for treasures, this compass also has a special function of tracking soul refining stones.
The master told her that as long as she was within a hundred miles of the Soul Refining Stone, the compass would emit a red light.
This only happens when you encounter a soul refining stone, and it is very easy to identify.
After thinking about it, Shadow suddenly remembered where his compass had gone.
Ah, I remember now. It was at the giant sea turtle that sent me to Fairy Island. Didn’t I give it to play with at that time?
Hey, that’s not right. I clearly gave the compass a command, asking it to execute the number of times I set and then fly back to find me.
How come it's been so long and you haven't come back yet? It should be completed within a few hours.
Now the compass is gone, what should I do now?
"Are you looking for this?"
The round-faced fat chef took out a deformed compass from his arms. It was no longer a round compass, but had become oval. It was covered with marks from bitten teeth and looked like a compass.
Moreover, this compass was still emitting a faint red light! !
"You want to piss me off to death, don't you? You took the Yuling Compass that I gave you to find the Soul Refining Stone and used it to tease a turtle?"
Ah!
How did he know everything? Could it be that he was really the master, and used the compass of the Broken Spirit Pavilion to track the crystal ball and find out the whereabouts of the compass?
Just when he thought of this, he saw the round-faced fat chef put his hand behind his ear and tore it hard. Then Shadow's jaw grew so big that it almost fell off. What he saw in front of him was the master in the original owner's memory - Ancestor Duan Ling!
It turns out that my master has changed his appearance!
Not only did he change his appearance, he also used the bone-changing technique to stretch his bones and the shape-changing technique to change his body shape, transforming his short and thin body into a tall and fat body like the fat chef.
"Master?"
Shadow made a surprised expression. Actually, she already knew it. But if she didn't play dumb now, she would definitely be taught a lesson by the irritable Old Ancestor Duan Ling for more than a few incense sticks of time.
That won’t do. It will delay my plans.
He decisively took the lead and before Ancestor Duan Ling could react, Shadow quickly stood up and rushed over, bending down and hugged him.
"Master, you are finally here! Woohoo, I was forcibly brought here by a thug. Even if I want to go out to find the soul stone for you, I can't escape his clutches!"
"Traitor, do you think I don't know what you did? You have been out for such a long time, and only recently did Luopan send back the news of the Soul Refining Stone. What did you do before that?"
He was originally frightened, thinking that his whereabouts were seen by Old Ancestor Duan Ling just like the surveillance cameras installed in modern society, and now he breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that he could only track the crystal ball through the compass, see the position of the compass and receive the signals about the Soul Refining Stone sent back by the compass.
That’s good, then he doesn’t know about her experience with Ren Xiaoyao before.
That's good. As long as it doesn't delay my plans, I don't care about anything else.
"Master, what I said is true. By the way, Master, how did you get here?"
After being treated perfunctorily by Shadow's coquettish scolding, Ancestor Duan Ling's anger was almost gone.
Beauty is always a fatal weapon.
"Look, you, you came out and completely forgot what I told you. What did I say?! I told you to keep an eye on the compass at all times, didn't you see it was glowing red? What does this mean?"
"Well, I saw it. It was a red light. What does it mean, Master?"
It was unclear whether Shadow really didn't know or was pretending not to know. He blinked and looked at Ancestor Duan Ling innocently with his pair of captivatingly beautiful eyes.
Ancestor Duan Ling almost fainted from anger on the spot, his face flushed red with anger:
“Traitor, you traitor…! Cough! Cough cough! Water, bring me water, quickly bring me water!…Traitor…!”
Seeing that Old Ancestor Duan Ling was so emotional that he started coughing out of anger, Yingzi quickly handed him the narrow-mouthed wine jug filled with liquid on the table.
Ancestor Duan Ling didn't care what he received and drank it down with one gulp.
It seemed that he was really angry and drank a large pot of wine.
Who knew that after drinking this pot, Patriarch Duan Ling began to find something wrong and said loudly:
"What is this? This is wine, you pass the wine to me??!!"
"Master, this is the finest imperial wine!"
"I have been practicing Tong Yuan Gong for the past few months and cannot drink alcohol. You fed me alcohol?! Traitor! You traitor!!"
Ancestor Duan Ling quickly walked to the side and tried to use his internal strength to force the wine out.
But I have already drunk almost a whole pot, and it is not so easy to force it all out.
Patriarch Duan Ling even suspected that this disciple was recruited to defeat him, and he was lucky that he didn't die suddenly from anger on the spot.
At the beginning, it was because of her pitiful and lovable appearance at the gate at the foot of Duanling Mountain that all the male disciples of Duanling Pavilion voted unanimously to ask the master to take her in immediately. Some male disciples even advised him that Duanling Pavilion was almost entirely composed of male disciples, and that having a female disciple would improve the sect's feng shui, so they accepted her as a disciple.
Within just one year, she completed the sect's trial. Although she didn't know what had happened to her, she was given a break in the test. This disciple inexplicably became the chief senior sister of Duanling Pavilion at the fastest speed.
Moreover, in Duanling Pavilion, almost all the orders she gave could be executed by the male disciples at the fastest speed. He felt that with him, the efficiency of the entire sect was greatly improved.
After a few visits, she was given the important task of finding the Soul Refining Stones scattered across the four realms.
It wouldn't have been a big deal if he hadn't chased after her, but now that he did, she was almost mad to death.
Seeing that Old Ancestor Duan Ling seemed to be vomiting, Yingzi quickly opened the lid of the dishes on the table, picked up a plate at random, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of food and fed it to Old Ancestor Duan Ling who had his mouth wide open.
"Master, this is a hangover dish. The thug ordered the chef to make it for me. Just have some!"
After saying that, he put the chopsticks back into Old Ancestor Duan Ling's mouth.
"Rebel...disciple..." Before Patriarch Duan Ling could finish his sentence, he, who was almost suffocated, seemed to have discovered something and actually started to eat the food that Shadow fed him.
This dish seems to be really useful?
It should be that Old Ancestor Duan Ling finished what Shadow fed him in a few bites, then walked over and quickly finished the rest of the dish.
Shadow then noticed that the dish that Old Ancestor Duan Ling was eating seemed to be bamboo shoots, which can indeed detoxify alcohol.
"Master, is it delicious? I have more!"
