Chapter 200

At this moment, the sound amplification array on the guest ship happened to sound, notifying the guests that they had arrived at the station, as well as the time the guest ship would stay.

Lin Zhangqing scanned the room with his divine sense, and after confirming there were no omissions, he got off the ship and returned the boarding voucher at the ship's side.

Then, after slightly identifying the direction, he steered the flying boat and flew toward Fengtai County. After flying for two li, he released Chu Yi and Chu Er from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

After communicating the direction of the destination with them slightly, they began to cruise above Lin Zhangqing's head. With them, traveling was much safer.

It greatly reduced the possibility of being ambushed. After flying for about two hours, Lin Zhangqing found a hidden place to land.

His meridians hadn't recovered yet, so he only traveled for two hours today. He didn't dare to use them excessively, fearing it would affect the recovery of his meridians.

Originally a two-day journey, it was estimated that it might take more than three days. Fortunately, he wasn't in a hurry, so he would just take it slowly.

He set up the Small Five Elements Illusion Array, activated the array, and then released the one hundred Purple Crystal Scorpions, setting up three layers of defense and warning. Then Lin Zhangqing went in to rest.

Fortunately, the next morning, after Lin Zhangqing tried to cultivate for a while, he discovered that his meridians had basically recovered.

He was overjoyed, recovered the array, summoned back the Purple Crystal Scorpion swarm, and after confirming there were no omissions, he set off.

Finally, on the evening of the third day after getting off the guest ship, he arrived at Zhao Family Village in Fengtai County. However, he didn't enter the village immediately, nor did he release Zhao Liyu immediately.

Instead, he found a suitable place outside the village to set up the array and released the Purple Crystal Scorpions. When the night was deep and everything was quiet, Lin Zhangqing covered himself with that light gauze magic treasure.

He circled Zhao Family Village twice, his divine sense scanning every household. He didn't find any cultivators in the village, nor did he find anything that could threaten him, so Lin Zhangqing was basically at ease.

He specifically found their family ancestral hall. This kind of mortal building basically had no defensive ability for cultivators.

Lin Zhangqing slipped in very easily. His divine sense searched carefully inch by inch, and very quickly, he found the entrance to the secret room in an inconspicuous place.

Lin Zhangqing now had a cultivation base of Qi Refining Great Perfection, and his divine sense had also increased by ten zhang. Now, in an extreme state, his divine sense could extend one hundred zhang away.

Plus, when the Zhao family built this secret room, for some reason, they didn't add any spirit-isolating materials.

So Lin Zhangqing's divine sense easily probed the entire situation inside the secret room, which was built twenty zhang underground, clearly.

Including the mechanisms, secret compartments, and so on, and of course, the things inside were basically all clear.

The things inside the secret room were about the same as what Zhao Liyu said. Actually, these were secondary; his main target this time was those two high-grade cultivation techniques that were said to point directly to the Great Dao.

This third-tier Spirit Plant Master inheritance was relatively slightly inferior, so Lin Zhangqing didn't go in to take that inheritance, but returned to the forest outside the village, inside the illusion array he had set up.

After checking the surrounding environment and confirming there were no problems, he activated the array and entered the inner space.

Because he had serious business to do now, he just dealt with Lu Youqiang and the others perfunctorily, telling them through the contract that he would play with them next time.

Through the golden rune, he summoned Zhao Liyu.

Very quickly, she came before Lin Zhangqing and greeted him, "Your humble maid greets the Master."

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said straight to the point, "We are now in the forest outside Zhao Family Village in Fengtai County."

"In a moment, I will take you out of the inner space. We will first go to get those two cultivation techniques, and then return to the village ancestral hall to get that third-tier Spirit Plant Master inheritance. No problem, right?"

After finishing, Lin Zhangqing stared closely at Zhao Liyu's expression.

Fortunately, after hearing Lin Zhangqing's words.

Zhao Liyu nodded without hesitation and said, "Master, no problem. Once out of the space, I will take the Master to find my grandfather's grave first."

After finishing, she hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Master, can you try your best not to let the people in the village know we are back?"

"Lest the mortal clansmen in Zhao Family Village think that I brought people to take the cultivation techniques and abandoned them. I must leave them some hope." After hearing Zhao Liyu's request, Lin Zhangqing nodded and agreed without hesitation.

And said, "It's just deep night outside now, and the people in the village are all resting. We will be careful and will absolutely not let anyone discover us."

"After getting the cultivation techniques and the Spirit Plant Master inheritance, let you copy a version yourself, and then put it back in its original place. No one will be the wiser, and ordinary people will discover it even less."

After hearing this, Zhao Liyu was completely at ease and thanked Lin Zhangqing very sincerely.

Lin Zhangqing waved his hand, put Zhao Liyu into the Spirit Beast Bracelet, and then exited the inner space.

Returning to the illusion array, he raised his hand and released Zhao Liyu.

After she adapted, he opened the array, and the two of them took advantage of the night, with Zhao Liyu leading the way, and began to sneak toward the Zhao family graveyard.

Actually, it wasn't far at all; it was just over a mountain. With Zhao Liyu leading the way, they very smoothly found her grandfather's grave.

Fortunately, it was Zhao Liyu leading the way. If he had let Lin Zhangqing find it himself, he wouldn't have known when he would have found it.

Because her grandfather's grave was very ordinary, built exactly the same as the graves of the ordinary mortals around it, and one couldn't tell at all that this was a cultivator's grave.

Lin Zhangqing didn't do it himself, but said to Zhao Liyu, "After all, it's your grandfather's grave. It's not good for an outsider like me to do it. You should do it yourself."

Zhao Liyu sighed helplessly and nodded at Lin Zhangqing.

Then she walked to her grandfather's grave, knelt down, kowtowed respectfully three times, and began to pray.

Lin Zhangqing watched quietly from the side without urging her. After all, he still had this bit of cultivation and patience.

After a while, when Zhao Liyu finished praying, she wiped the tears from her face and began to work in a corner.

A cultivator's speed of working was still very fast. In a little while, Zhao Liyu came over with a stone the size of a human head.

She solemnly handed the stone to Lin Zhangqing. Lin Zhangqing took it and looked at it, and instantly understood. He couldn't help but admire the intelligence and wisdom of their ancestors.

This was basically a raw stone. That's right, it was the kind of raw stone Lin Zhangqing often bought. This kind of raw stone, when scanned with divine sense.

One couldn't discover anything at all; it looked just like an ordinary stone, which was why there was the saying that even immortals find it hard to judge an inch of jade.

Using this kind of raw stone, digging it out in the middle, using it as a box, and then burying it in the soil—if no one said specifically where it was, it would definitely be impossible to find. It was truly a whimsical idea.

Sure enough, one cannot underestimate anyone! Small people also have the way of survival for small people, and small people also have great wisdom.

Lin Zhangqing's divine sense searched and explored carefully on the stone bit by bit, and finally, he discovered some clues. He used the Golden Thread Escape Light Needle to slowly prick along that place, not daring to be too rough, fearing to damage the things inside.

Very quickly, something like a lid was pried off. He probed his divine sense inside to check.

Only then did he discover that although the whole raw stone was as big as a head, the space dug out inside wasn't much. Inside, there was only a small space with three jade slips placed in it.

Lin Zhangqing considered it and didn't check immediately, but said to Zhao Liyu, "You restore your grandfather's grave to its original state first. We will return to the array, and after you finish copying, we will send it back."

Zhao Liyu also knew that what Lin Zhangqing said made sense. After all, if the content of the jade slips was too much and couldn't be copied in a short time, then leaving it here would carry the risk of being discovered by others.

So she nodded, began to restore it to its original state, and then went to the grave to kowtow a few more times.

After finishing, the two returned the way they came and smoothly returned to the illusion array.
