Chapter 461: Camouflage and Infiltrate

I went to the National Master Mansion and came to the Imperial City for so many days, but I have never been to the National Master Mansion. As expected, as Wei Yang said, a large number of sacrificial guards in the National Master Mansion did not even see the shadow of the guards.

A team of priests walked towards this side. I hid behind the wall. After the group of people were not paying attention, I dragged the last person to a hidden place.

The priest held a thing similar to a purple gold bowl and a scepter in his hand. These things were probably their magical tools. Just like the peach wood sword used by Taoists, I could feel the strange aura from it, and it should have a certain evil-proof effect.

Change into the sacrificial clothes, take the scepter, and mix into the patrolling sacrificial teams.

The patrol range of the sacrificial team is much smaller than that of the Imperial Guards, only the National Master Mansion and nearby, and this range is very small. The National Master Mansion looks like a wilderness and forest, with various rare beasts passing through it. This place even makes me think I have come to the wrong place.

Keshi is indeed the National Master Mansion. If there were no small paths, I would definitely get lost in the National Master Mansion.

After the patrol, I was not able to rest, but was sent to take care of the alchemy furnace. At least in my eyes, the stove made of these two people, which are of unknown material, is used for alchemy. The surface of the alchemy furnace is clearly carved with Tai Chi Bagua diagrams and various Taoist patterns.

According to historical books, ancient alchemy was smelted by various chemical minerals, and it had no effect of saving lives and helping the wounded, and living and dead human flesh and bones. But when I saw Xuantian's elixir box, I believed it.

I really want to see what is added to the alchemy furnace, but I have no chance. There are higher-level priests guarding me, so I can only fan the fire with a fan or add some firewood. Occasionally, someone will come and bring a closed wooden box to add the things inside to the alchemy furnace.

Because the speed was too fast, I didn't see it clearly. After a while, I saw Shen Tu Xiao bringing people and asked, "How is the alchemy refining?"

"Report to the national teacher, everything is normal."

Shen Tu Xiao nodded, "You must be careful and take care of it. You must never let outsiders get close to the alchemy furnace. If something goes wrong, I will throw you into the alchemy furnace."

"Please rest assured by the national teacher."

"Well..." Shen Tu Xiao suddenly exclaimed lightly. I thought I had discovered me, so I kept holding a fan and focused on delivering air to the alchemy furnace. I felt the footsteps behind me approaching me little by little, my heart was pounding nervously. Could it be that I was about to be discovered?

Suddenly someone patted my shoulder, "You go and bring some firewood back, hurry up! Don't be ink!"

“Oh, yes!”

I stood up and left calmly, and the man came forward. I crossed the corner and when their eyes could not see me, I quickly stepped away from the place.

After calming down, I thought while walking, did I really have been discovered? Did I reveal some flaws? I couldn’t figure it out after thinking about it. Maybe Shen Tu Xiao just wanted to talk to me by coincidence.

Now I have to get the firewood back, but I don’t know where the firewood is. I called a priest who passed by, “Where is the firewood?”

"Are you new here?"

"Uh..." I hesitated for a second and hurriedly replied, "Yes, that's right."

"Then you have to be careful, the woodshed is in the southeast corner."

After saying that, I left and went to the location of the firewood. There was a large amount of firewood stored there, which was a little different. The core of these firewood was red. I didn't pay attention to it before, but now I feel strange. However, it should be a certain variety of wood, and maybe it will become extinct many years later.

The wood is very heavy, and it will be enough to burn for a long time to hold more than ten pieces at a time. I carried more than twenty pieces. When I went back, the person had already left. I normally piled the firewood aside, and there was really not much left. The man behind me started urging again, "Put the firewood quickly, the * here has been in this state. The medicine in the alchemy furnace will be ruined by the slightest deviation. You will not have any good results when you eat it."

I replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes."

In this way, I almost had to stay in front of the stove except for eating and going to the toilet. I don’t know what was burning like this. At night, I felt that the things inside should have turned into ashes, but a faint fragrance wafted out. It was very tempting, and it made people feel refreshed when they smelled it.

A priest immediately pulled me away, and then a group of people pulled out the firewood below, leaving only a few left. They probably didn't want the alchemy furnace to cool down quickly. Then they surrounded the alchemy furnace, and in a short while, people came over.

One person went to open a gate of the alchemy furnace, and the other person held a brocade box in his hand, which was made of jade.

A light green pill six rolled out from it. What a joke, I burned it for a day and it really turned into a pill!

I felt that all kinds of minerals melted and turned into stones. The pills were taken away by brocade boxes. I had no chance to continue observing, and then I had to start refining the next furnace of elixirs. I was about to start working again, but the people left and came back, holding a wooden box in their hands, and putting something into the alchemy furnace.

When climbing the ladder, one of them was not firmly held. The wooden box in my hand scattered, and a soft thing hit my face, and then it fell down again.

I saw a red heart lying on the ground, and it was still beating.

"What are you stunned! I'm not clean yet and pick it up!"

I quickly picked up my heart and put it in a wooden box, then handed it to the man. He threw it into the alchemy furnace, then poured it into a bottle of dark green water, and covered the lid of the alchemy furnace.

After the man left, I went to wash my face and took the opportunity to escape from the National Master Mansion. It was already midnight, and when I returned, I found that the General Mansion was not locked. I think Wei Yang was too bold. Even if he was very skilled in martial arts, he should be careful. What if he was careful to get in and hurt you?

After I entered, I was about to lock the door with my backhand, and suddenly I felt someone behind me, "Where have you been?"

I said, "It's okay, I went out for a few rounds." Then I stroked my heart, "Brother, why are there no sound when you walk? It's so scary."

Wei Yang said: "You have gone to the National Master's Mansion, right?"

I looked at him and was slightly stunned. How could he know? Wei Yang continued to ask, "Have you found anything?"

Wei Yang did not blame me, and seemed to agree to me to go to the National Master Mansion. I said, "I found that there are not many. Have you ever been to the National Master Mansion?"

"No, the National Master's Mansion has always been on high alert. Even if the king wants to go, he must obtain the consent of the National Master." Wei Yang said again, "And I won't go back to find him when it's okay."
