In the inner storage room at the northeast corner of the palace, Qin Qinghong showed the token given by the emperor to the guard standing at the door of the storage room.
The captain of the guard inspected it carefully after taking the jade token. After learning the purpose of their coming, he nodded to several people, "Since it is His Majesty's will, please come with me."
There are many treasures stored in the inner warehouse. In order to better preserve these things, the light inside the warehouse is very dim.
Qin Qinghong took Xie Lanyi's hand and warned softly, "Be careful."
Yan Yunfei, who was behind them, clicked his tongue and turned to look at the leader of the Miao Miao Cult, "Brother, do you want to hold me?"
No matter how you look at it, this brother needs to hold hands more. His eyes are covered with black gauze. I don’t know if he is just showing off or if there is something really wrong with his eyes.
But with your eyes covered like this, in dim light, you will definitely not be able to see clearly.
The leader of Miao Miao Cult glanced at him, snorted and said, "No need."
As he spoke, he walked towards the warehouse, then kicked his toes to the threshold and threw himself inside.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Yan Yunfei grabbed the person's belt and pulled him back.
He showed his neat white teeth towards the leader of the Miao Miao Cult and said with a smile: "Brother Miao, why are you trying to be so strong? There are treasures in this storehouse. What will happen if it gets damaged?"
The leader of the Miao Miao Cult was blushing. His skin was extremely white, and when it turned red, it looked like he had applied rouge.
He pursed his lips and said, "I really can't see clearly, but I don't need your sympathy."
Yan Yunfei was startled, hey, no, why did he sympathize? Is this Brother Meow really wearing black veil because of an eye problem?
He suddenly felt at a loss and wanted to slap his two big ears. Why was his mouth so short?
"Sorry, I didn't mean that..."
The leader of the Miao Miao Cult said calmly: "It's okay, I'm not completely invisible, I'm just a little blind. You don't need to treat me specially."
As he spoke, he continued walking into the warehouse, and Yan Yunfei immediately stepped forward to support him.
Remembering what he just said that he didn't want to be treated specially, Yan Yunfei hurriedly found a reason.
"I'm not holding you up, it's... I'm afraid of the dark, so you hold me up a little."
In the darkness, the leader of the Miao Miao Cult raised a sly arc on his lips, making the man named Yan laugh at him.
As long as he has some conscience, he will sit up and slap himself twice when he falls asleep at night.
He raised his hand and touched the black gauze covering his eyes. Of course there was nothing wrong with his eyes, there was just something peculiar about them.
The captain of the guard led them deep into the warehouse and introduced: "The inner warehouse contains the treasures accumulated by our dynasties throughout the ages. In terms of value, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mountain of gold."
"The walls and floors are made of bluestone and iron wood. They are half a meter thick. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are copper walls and iron walls. The only entrance is the main entrance."
"At any time, there are at least fifty guards of first-class masters and above guarding the main entrance to ensure that not even a fly can fly in."
Having said this, the captain of the guard was vaguely proud. He was a master at the master level and was only one step away from becoming a grand master.
Among the palace guards and the imperial army, under Meng Tai, he was the most powerful master.
So after knowing the purpose of Qin Qinghong's visit, he was not nervous at all. He was just a cultist from the Western Regions, and he wanted to seize the treasure from the inner treasure. It was simply unreasonable.
Xie Lanyi walked steadily and looked at the furnishings in the storage room, "What about the roof?"
The captain of the guard only introduced the walls and floors, but did not mention the roof.
Because the roof has to bear load, it is generally made of lightweight building materials, and thatch is covered with tiles. This is true even for magnificent palaces. At most, the tiles used are more ornate.
The captain of the guard smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir, this point has been taken into consideration at the beginning of the construction of the inner storage warehouse."
"Although there is nothing special about the roof of the inner storage warehouse, there was a sentry tower built in the Western Zhou Dynasty. If someone wanted to come in from the roof, they would be discovered immediately."
Xie Lanyi nodded. The inner storage was indeed made of iron barrels. It was very tightly guarded and it was not easy for flies to fly in.
But these defensive methods are useless in front of the masters of Xiaoyao Realm.
As we go deeper, the light in the warehouse becomes darker and darker, and the treasures neatly placed on the shelves of the Western Zhou Dynasty become blurred.
The captain of the guard led several people to the deepest part of the warehouse and picked up a delicate wooden box with a thin layer of dust on it.
He wiped the dust on the wooden box with his sleeve and said, "This is the East China Sea Moon Pearl."
The captain of the guard said, and opened the wooden box. An orange light invisible to the NPC flashed through, revealing a round pearl the size of a fist, shining brightly.
The orange light is a legendary item!
This is the first legendary game prop to appear since the launch of the game.
As soon as the East China Sea Moon Pearl appeared, a faint white soft light filled the entire inner library.
The pearlescent brilliance flows slowly like water waves, with a little bit of seven-color rainbow light, like a dream.
Xie Lanyi praised: "It is indeed a secret treasure of the royal family."
Yan Yunfei and the leader of the Miao Miao Cult nodded in unison. It was indeed a legendary game prop.
Seeing that Xie Lanyi liked it so much, Qin Qinghong raised a smile on his lips and said to the captain of the guard, "I wonder if we can take a closer look?"
The captain of the guard hesitated briefly and handed the wooden box to them. Since His Majesty had given the order, he naturally could not refuse this request, which was not excessive.
Qin Qinghong took the wooden box over and several people gathered around to look at it.
Xie Lanyi picked up the East China Sea Moon Pearl and saw that there seemed to be liquid flowing slowly inside the pearl.
"It's a pity that there is no moonlight in this inner storage, otherwise we would be able to see if there are really small fish swimming inside."
But even if you can't see the little fish, it's worth it to see the bright moon and pearls in the East China Sea.
After putting the beads back into the box and returning them to the captain of the guard, they walked out of the inner storage room.
Qin Qinghong said: "The inner storage is leak-proof. Even if the people from the Shenyan Sect come, they will not be able to snatch the Moon Pearl from the East China Sea."
The captain of the guard nodded and said with a smile: "Young masters, don't worry. I guarantee with my life that I will never let those people from the Western Regions cult come and snatch the East China Sea Bright Moon Pearl away."
Middle-aged people, don't talk too much.
Several people returned to Yizhuyuan, just as the other two groups also came back.
"No undercover agents were found among the eunuchs."
"Not even among the palace maids."
Both major groups were eliminated, and now only the palace guards and the imperial guards were left.
But those NPCs are not as obedient as palace maids and eunuchs, and if you want to check them, you have to get Mengtai's permission.
The leader of the Miao Miao Cult said: "It's getting late now. Even if we find General Meng and get his permission, we won't have enough time to check the guards and the imperial army."
Yan Yunfei nodded in agreement, "Indeed, by this time, the information that the undercover agent wanted to convey must have been spread out. We might as well focus on the main task tonight."
