Chapter 333: Digging the Tianchi Lake
How strong is the deterrent power of heaven?
Apart from Qingqiu, the people of Yaochi know it best.
Because Yaochi was actually "split" from the Heavenly Palace.
The fairy thought for a while and said, "The Queen is still resting. That man wants to know the location of the Heavenly Palace. Let me go out and talk to him."
"Heng'e, I can't guarantee your safety." Xiangliu said nervously, "Those people are quite capable, I am no match for them, and you don't have any spiritual energy right now, so it's probably too late."
Chang'e smiled and said, "It's okay. I still have the Moon Palace behind me."
Xiang Liu thought about it and felt relieved. He asked again, "Do you need me to accompany you as a guard?"
Chang'e shook her head: "You should go and recuperate first, don't leave any root of illness."
Xiangliu looked quite regretful, and then left as he was told.
Chang'e walked to the exit formation of Yao Chi and lit up one of the points with her spiritual power. Then her figure became translucent, but she did not disappear completely like the others.
Lu Sen waited inside the fence for a while.
They were not in a hurry. They took out a table and chairs and chatted while eating.
Jingwei kept showing off fruits, one after another, as if she hadn't eaten anything delicious for thousands of years.
While eating, he made a humming sound.
Several people looked at her lovingly.
After spending a few days together, Lu Sen and others also understood Jingwei's character. She was just a child who had not grown up yet. Such a person would not disguise her nature as a "spy" and would not have any bad intentions.
Xianxian even stroked Jingwei's hair and said, "This little guy reminds me of the days in Qingqiu. He also had many brothers and sisters who needed to be taken care of. He was also as lovable as Jingwei."
When Jingwei heard this, she raised her head from eating the melon, smiled happily at Xianxian, and then started eating again.
Lu Sen was about to say something when he saw the surface of Tianchi Lake suddenly filled with mist, which then pressed down and condensed to form a thin "veil". Finally, a translucent human figure stood on the veil.
Everyone noticed the abnormality and stood up.
The person who appeared was naturally Chang'e. She looked at the few people for a long time before she bowed and said, "You guests are really leisurely."
She smiled slightly. If someone came to cause trouble, they usually wouldn't behave so calmly.
Seeing that the people from Yao Chi were so polite, Lu Sen and others also returned the greetings one by one.
After finishing her greetings, Xianxian asked, "May I ask your name, sister?"
"My name is Heng'e, and I'm not a famous person."
Chang'e?
Lu Sen had no impression of this name, but Wo Wo whispered, "She is Chang'e. Because her name is homophonic with that of a certain emperor, it violated a taboo, so people called her Chang'e."
Oh, it's her! Lu Sen suddenly realized.
But Lu Sen then had a question: "Who controls the Moon Palace, her or Wangshu?"
"Of course it's Wangshu." Jingjing squeezed over and whispered, "Wangshu is a great god from ancient times, and Chang'e is just a person appointed by the Heavenly Court. Haven't you seen her in Yaochi instead of the Moon Palace?"
They were whispering here, while Xianxian was communicating with Heng'e.
"Fairy Chang'e, you should know why we are here." Xianxian said, "We want to know the location of the Heavenly Palace."
Chang'e looked at Xianxian with a strange expression, and after a while she said, "Although this may be a little abrupt, I hope that the sisters from Qingqiu will not go to the Heavenly Palace."
"I have been separated from my people for a long time." Xianxian looked miserable. "Only the Heavenly Court knows where they went. If my sister or the Queen Mother also knows their whereabouts, please let me know. I will be very grateful."
Chang'e sighed and said, "It is true that only the Heavenly Court knows roughly where the Qingqiu people went. If you want to know the location of the Heavenly Court, it is also simple. I can tell you, but we also have a condition."
Xianxian was overjoyed: "Please tell me, we will never refuse anything we can do."
"I heard from Xiangliu that you have a mature hibiscus tree." Chang'e shifted her gaze from Xianxian to Lu Sen: "Give it to us, and it will be done."
Xianxian's smiling face immediately turned cold: "Fairy, you have good teeth. You can eat a lot."
She was too lazy to even call me 'sister'.
Chang'e was still smiling: "Now the only one in the world who knows the location of the Heavenly Palace is us, Yao Chi. If you go to our door, the Heavenly Palace will guess that it was us who leaked it, and they will definitely be dissatisfied with us, Yao Chi. If there is no sufficient reward, the price will be too high for us."
What Chang'e said makes sense.
But Xianxian understood that the hibiscus tree, as a strategic "material" that could produce a large amount of "spiritual energy", could never be given away.
Yaochi itself has a profound heritage. If they get the Fusang tree and the peaches, they can survive for a few hundred years, and when they come out, it will be a "golden age".
She shook her head: "That's impossible."
Heng'e looked regretful: "I hope my sister can take more time to think about it."
She saluted gracefully: "Thank you for troubling me, fairy."
After saying that, she turned and looked at Lu Sen, wanting to persuade her man to go home.
Although I couldn't find out the location of the Heavenly Palace, I found out that the rest of the tribesmen were safe and hiding in the southern barbarian land.
At worst, we can search every inch of land there, even for decades or hundreds of years. Hard work pays off, and we will always find some clues.
But just as she was about to speak, she saw her husband's face darken.
"careful."
Hearing Lu Sen's reminder, Xianxian turned around and saw a pair of white cloud sleeves wrapping around her, but were connected to the outside by the fence.
"You are worthy of being the bitch who stole your husband's elixir. Your sneak attack ability really suits your behavior." Xianxian stared at Chang'e and sneered.
In fact, from the very beginning, Xianxian didn't like Chang'e, the woman who betrayed her husband.
Now that we are hostile, we will not show mercy.
Chang'e didn't care at all, and her beautiful and dignified face still had a perfect smile.
When the attack failed, she retracted her cloud sleeves.
No one knew when, but the thin layer of white mist on the surface of Tianchi Lake had spread to the surrounding area, surrounding Lu Sen and others.
It was only thanks to the 'function' of the fence that the fog did not invade.
But even so, the surrounding scenery began to change.
The entire Tianchi Lake began to hang in the sky, in an upside-down shape.
Lu Sen and others "sank" into the water, and outside the fence was misty pool water.
"Is this the moon in the water?" Xianxian was a little surprised.
Jingwei nodded repeatedly: "This is the Moon in the Water, very powerful."
After saying that, everyone saw Chang'e, hanging upside down in the sky, extending her hand to Lu Sen and others.
After her hand entered the water, it grew bigger and bigger, and soon became as big as a mountain and hung down.
Lu Sen took out his bow and arrow and shot a few arrows.
The surrounding water was fake, and the arrow made a sound of breaking through the air and pierced through Chang'e's giant hand.
The magic spells of the four foxes were all in vain.
Seeing this, Lu Sen understood what "the moon in the water" meant.
They became the 'moon', the moon in the water.
Generally speaking, the moon in the water represents nothingness and falsehood, but Chang'e possesses some divinity of the 'moon'. She can take out the moon in the water and make it real.
To put it simply, it is a technique of transferring the real from the virtual.
Seeing that Lu Sen and others' attacks failed, Chang'e smiled.
Her big hand reached out to grab it, but was still blocked by the "ability" of the fence.
After grasping for a while with her five fingers, she still couldn't break the 'protective' force field brought by the fence, and Chang'e showed a look of surprise.
"What kind of magic trick is this? It actually has some of the charm of the golden light array." Hanging upside down in the 'sky', Chang'e asked slowly.
Naturally, no one answered, and no one even wanted to talk to her.
Getting no response, Chang'e gradually disappeared.
Soon the surrounding illusions disappeared and Tianchi returned to its original appearance.
"She has run out of spiritual energy." Xianxian snorted, " None good. They all attack at any time."
It was like this in Kunlun Mountain, and it is also like this here in Yaochi.
Looking at the indignant Xianxian, Jingwei subconsciously shrank his body and felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, she was also a member of Kunlun Mountain before.
Xianxian immediately noticed that Jingwei was in a bad mood, reached out and stroked the latter's hair, and said with a smile: "I didn't say that, little Jingwei, you are the best person."
Jingwei's expression immediately became happy again.
Then Xianxian looked at Lu Sen, and said lovingly: "Sir, let's go home. Thanks to you for accompanying me out, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
She visited two secluded places and was ambushed both times. If it weren't for Lu Sen's fence formation protecting her, she estimated that she would most likely be injured.
And it is impossible to know the current whereabouts of the tribe members.
Lu Sen looked around and asked, "This Chang'e attacked us, and you just left like that. Can you bear this?"
The four foxes' eyes lit up: "Sir, do you have any ideas?"
Foxes are actually quite vindictive.
Lu Sen threw out dozens of pickaxes from his system backpack: "Let's flatten the entire mountain. I want to see how they can get out of Yaochi in the future."
The four foxes laughed at the same time: "Your Excellency has a good idea."
They started working right away. The four men, a fox and a bird used pickaxes to start digging at Tianshan Mountain. They first drained the water from Tianchi Lake and dug a canal to lead the water to the foot of the mountain. Then, bit by bit, like ants moving house, they dug the mountain into small cubes, which were then collected by Lu Sen's system backpack.
If I use magic to move or 'blow up' the mountain, I don't know how much mana will be wasted.
But the iron pickaxe is different. With just a little physical strength, it can easily dig a big gap in the mountain.
The six people worked almost day and night and spent more than a month flattening the top of the peak where the Tianchi Lake is located.
The entire Tianshan Mountain is very large, but the area where the Tianchi Lake is located is not that big.
After doing all this, Lu Sen and others left happily.
Inside Yaochi, a roar was heard: "Who destroyed the entrance and exit of my Yaochi formation?"
The entire Yaochi was shaking.
Then, in the highest Jade Palace, purple clouds flowed, and soon she turned into a palace-dressed beauty. She sat down on her seat with a frosty face, looking at the fairies and spirits below: "During the time I was recuperating, what happened? Tell me everything."
