Chapter 923 More money is needed!
Ye Feng groped his way into the deep alley.
Through the crack in the door you could see a candlelight inside.
He didn't even knock on the door, but just climbed over the wall and went in.
As soon as he entered the yard, he started shouting, "Godfather, godfather, are you asleep? I'm here to see you!"
The door opened, and it was not his adoptive father Lu Yunshi.
But it was Lu Yunshi's other adopted son, Eunuch Luan who was guarding Jiaotai Hall.
"Ah! It's Luan... No, it's my brother! I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem younger and more masculine. It's really a cause for celebration."
Eunuch Luan is relatively feminine, even more feminine than the centenarian eunuch Lu Yunshi.
Those eyes were like the eyes of a cobra, making people feel very uncomfortable.
Eunuch Luan said in a very shrill voice, "So it's Young Master Ye too. My godfather and I were just discussing Young Master Ye. However, as my godfather's adopted son, why didn't you bring anything with you? It's New Year's Day, and it's rather rude to come empty-handed."
Ye Feng laughed dryly and said, "I live in the Rulin Inn next door. It's so close that I forgot about it. I'll make it up tomorrow."
Eunuch Luan grinned and said, "Come in."
When Eunuch Luan smiled, the femininity in his eyes seemed to dissipate a lot.
Ye Feng saw it all.
In fact, Ye Feng's favorability towards eunuchs is better than that towards Buddhist disciples.
Although there were some eunuchs who were autocratic in history, there were also eunuchs like Zhao Gao who brought disaster to the country and the people and destroyed the foundation of the Qin Dynasty.
But there are still some eunuchs who have a relatively good reputation.
For example, Wang Chengen.
Ye Feng had seen such a scene in a film or TV series.
When the Dashun Army led by Emperor Chuang entered Zijing City, a chubby eunuch clasped his hands together and shouted in a sharp and resolute voice, "Damn it, I'm a man, come on..."
And Wang Chengen accompanied Emperor Chongzhen to be hanged in Meishan.
Who would have thought that the final guardians of the iron-willed Ming Dynasty would not be the powerful officials of the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers, nor the officials of the Donglin Party.
But they were a group of eunuchs with disabled bodies.
It was still Lu Yunshi’s carving workshop, but the layout inside had changed a lot.
The jade fragments and some carving tools were now piled in the corner of the room.
As soon as you come in, you will see a huge map hanging on a wooden frame.
The map was really big, at least three or four meters long and about two meters wide.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a very detailed map of the capital.
It is divided into three parts: the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city.
The streets, buildings and even houses of each of the 108 districts in the capital were drawn.
This was the first time Ye Feng had seen such a detailed map since arriving in this world.
Ye Feng had an illusion for a moment and thought he was seeing the Gaode map.
At this moment, Lu Yunshi was standing in front of the map and looking at it. A part of the map had been circled.
"Foster father, where did you get such a detailed map of the capital?"
Lu Yunshi said, "It was sent by Dean Qiu."
Ye Feng walked forward and saw dozens of circles drawn on the map. He asked, "Foster Father, are these marked areas the locations of the Dragon Vein Formation's core?"
Lu Yunshi nodded slowly and said, "Well, although I don't believe in the formation diagram, my family is cultivating the dragon vein energy after all, so I can more or less sense the specific location of some dragon vein formation eyes.
Dean Lu, please mark as many as possible so we can prepare in advance. After all, no one knows where the next dragon vein formation will be.
Ye Feng nodded. Although this method was rather clumsy, it was better than the Confucian passive defense.
First, mark out some of the dragon vein array eyes that Lu Yunshi can feel, and then send people in advance to protect or relocate the people at these array eye locations.
If any unusual movement really occurs, it will not only reduce the casualties among the people, but also control the area where the movement occurred as soon as possible to avoid causing panic among the people in the capital.
Ye Feng looked at the map and suddenly saw several circles in Yiningfang.
There is a circle in it, and the place looks very familiar.
After taking a closer look, Ye Feng uttered a sound and pointed at the circle he had drawn, saying, "Godfather, this... seems to be it."
Ye Feng pointed to the ground beneath his feet.
Lu Yunshi laughed and said, "Boy, you still call yourself a smart person. Our family cultivates the energy of the dragon vein, so naturally we have to live near the center of the dragon vein array to facilitate absorption."
Ye Feng suddenly realized.
I thought to myself, no wonder this old eunuch has been living in this yard for so many years. It turns out that there is a dragon vein array under this broken yard.
At this time, Eunuch Luan came over and said, "Master Ye, Godfather has told us about your situation. Stealing the imperial seal is a serious crime that will punish all nine generations of your family. We are timid and dare not do it."
Ye Feng was stunned and said, "Godfather, didn't you tell him?"
Lu Yunshi turned his back to Ye Feng and said, "Xiao Luanzi said he wanted to talk to you in person. You two can talk on your own. We are just helping to make a fake imperial seal."
Ye Feng was speechless and said, "No, godfather, we agreed at the beginning that I would get you four drops of the Chaos Divine Spring, and you would help me make a fake imperial seal and help me exchange the real imperial seal from the Jiaotai Palace.
Now that shit has blocked my ass, you tell me your work is done, aren't you just cheating me? "
Lu Yunshi glanced at him and snorted, "Didn't our family help you find Xiao Luanzi? Besides, there's something wrong with the Chaos Divine Spring you gave me."
"It's not the Chaos Divine Spring? Impossible!"
“No, that is indeed the Chaos Divine Spring, but the Chaos Regeneration Power is different from what Old Man Wen told us back then. The spiritual power is much weaker.
Originally, I thought that two drops of Chaos Divine Spring would be enough for me and Xiao Luanzi. But now, your bottle of eight drops of Divine Spring is only enough for one person. Go back, man.
That won’t work, you have to pay more.”
Ye Feng didn't expect that he would meet Brother Jiaqian again in this world.
He said, "Since what I'm giving you is the Chaos Divine Spring, then it's not a big deal. You just want more Chaos Divine Spring, isn't that a big deal? You almost scared me to death.
Brother Luan, let's talk in detail here!"
Ye Feng took Eunuch Luan's hand and came to the side and began to negotiate with him.
"Eunuch Luan, I know you're taking a big risk this time, but I won't let you do this for nothing. I gave my adoptive father eight drops of the Chaos Divine Spring, and I'll give you eight too. I'll make a man out of you!"
Eunuch Luan's eyes lit up and he said, "What you said is true. Don't try to deceive our family."
"We are both my adoptive father's godsons. We are a family. I can lie to anyone but I can never lie to you.
Since I can get eight drops of the holy spring, I will get eight more."
Eunuch Luan nodded slowly and said, "That makes sense. Okay, if you can get eight drops of the sacred spring water for us, we'll help you this time."
"Well, let's talk about the specific details. I got news that something might happen in the palace the night after tomorrow..."
