C2065 Zhou Family Accident
"That's right." Elder Liang nodded.
The other person continued, "I'm one of Miss Zhou Yingxue's subordinates."
Seeing that the other party was not lying, Elder Liang asked, "Has something happened to Miss Zhou?"
"Second Miss has already been grounded by the old master and is not allowed to take even a single step out of the house. That's why she is unable to come to meet with everyone." the man said.
"In that case, what about what she agreed to do?" Elder Liang frowned.
He did not expect Zhou Yingxue to be grounded by the Zhou family head.
"The Miss said she was thinking of a way. All you need to do is wait quietly. When the time comes, she will tell you the way." The youth replied.
"Is that so?" Elder Liang frowned.
With that, the youth turned and left. Elder Liang immediately went to look for Lin Long, and then told Lin Long everything that the youth had said.
"I didn't expect such a thing to happen." After hearing what Elder Liang said, Lin Long couldn't help but frown.
After giving it some thought, he understood why. Clearly, what had happened at Mask Academy had reached the ears of the Zhou family's head.
Seeing his own daughter be together with someone who could activate the Purple Flame Talisman, the Zhou family's head was naturally afraid. He was afraid that Zhou Yanxue would become the enemy of Ice Peak Country, so it was understandable that he should directly imprison her.
It could be said that even if the other party sent someone to look for him, it was possible.
However, it was clear that the Zhou family master did not do that, and Zhou Yingxue also did not tell him about the situation.
No matter what, he had to be careful. Lin Long thought.
Fortunately, he did not reveal his true appearance in the Mask Academy, so he was not worried that anyone outside would be able to tell that he was Lin Long.
Of course, the name had to be changed, he could not use the word Lin Long again. No matter what, he should not let others connect him to the Mask Academy's him.
At this time, Lin Long frowned again, because he realized that he had forgotten one thing, and that was the matter with his people.
If he really did enter the Imperial City's secret realm as Zhou Yingxue's subordinate, the people within the Imperial City would definitely not allow him to wear a large bamboo hat.
In other words, he had to find a way to conceal his identity as a foreign race. He couldn't let others see through him, or else it would be even more dangerous than having the Purple Flame Talisman.
The most important thing was the shape of his ears. His skin could be modified with some medicine, and the shape of his ears could not be compared to the people in this world.
If not for this, he wouldn't have been wearing a bamboo hat all this time.
Why not ask Elder Liang, Elder Hu, and the others and see what they can do? This thought flashed across Lin Long's mind.
After all, they were people of this world, and they had lived for a very long time.
Immediately after, Lin Long called Elder Hu, Elder Liang, Elder Wang, and Feng Tian over. The reason he called them over was naturally because they had consumed his Life Listening Pill.
He did not want others to know of his status as a foreigner.
"Young Master, what's the matter?" The few of them came over and greeted respectfully.
"It's like this, I'm actually a foreigner." As he said that, Lin Long took off his bamboo hat.
Seeing the shape of Lin Long's ears, the few of them were immediately stunned.
They didn't think that Lin Long was actually a foreign clan member. Because Lin Long had never seen their true identities before, they did not even know who Lin Long was.
"Actually, I came from another world ?" Lin Long introduced them briefly.
After hearing what Lin Long had said, Elder Wang asked, "Is Young Master worried that you won't be able to enter the Imperial City's Secret Realm?"
"That's right." Lin Long nodded his head, "It's impossible for me to wear a bamboo hat to the Imperial City's Secret Realm. The reason I called the few of you here is to let you all think of a way to sneak into the Imperial City's Secret Realm."
After a moment of silence, Elder Liang said, "There's a way for young master to do this."
"Oh, what is it?" Hearing Elder Liang's words, Lin Long was immediately overjoyed.
"In our world, we have a mask made of golden silk. This mask can even change the shape of the ears. If young master wears this mask, it shouldn't be a problem to sneak in." Elder Liang said.
"Elder Liang, are you talking about the Golden Silk Mask made by Master Qin Shu?" Elder Hu could not help but say.
"That's right, this mask was also made by the master craftsman Qin Shu. Apart from him, the other masks made by others do not have this effect and are easy to be recognized." Elder Liang said.
"But, even a mask made by Qin Shu may not be able to change the shape of his ears, right?" Feng Tian questioned.
"Elder Feng, you are wrong." Elder Liang shook his head, "Qin Shu's mask can really change the shape of one's ears. I was fortunate enough to get a mask like this before, so I know this."
"Is that so? That's because I'm ignorant and ill-informed." Feng Tian said embarrassedly.
"Then, where can I find such a mask? Do you want it from that Qin Shu?" Lin Long asked.
"Qin Shu also doesn't have a mask. It has been many years since he has made a mask. There are only a few of these on the market. The entire Ice Mountain Country can count to two." Elder Liang shook his head.
"Oh, then who has such a mask in their hands?" Lin Long asked again.
"I don't know about that." Elder Liang smiled bitterly, "The mask I saw earlier belonged to someone else, but that person had long since disappeared. Furthermore, the mask in that person's hand is an old man's mask, so it's not suitable for young master to use now."
"Oh, then do the rest of you know who has such a mask and it's suitable for me to use?" Lin Long said as he looked at the others.
Upon hearing his words, everyone shook their heads.
Elder Liang continued, "Normally, no one who has such a mask will reveal it. After all, they want to use such a mask to change their appearance."
"Can't you change the masks of the others?" Lin Long asked.
"That's fine, but it's very easy to see other people's masks. Only the master craftsman Qin Shu also made masks that others couldn't see through." Elder Liang said.
"It's also because of this that Qin Shu's mask is so precious." Then he added.
"Then what should I do?" Hearing his words, Lin Long could not help but ask.
"I can only inquire and see where I can find such a mask." Elder Liang said.
"Can you go and find that Qin Shu and have him make a new mask?" Lin Long asked.
"This is a bit difficult. It is said that a prince from the Imperial City personally went to look for him. He rejected the offer directly, saying that he would never make a Golden Silk Mask again in his lifetime." Elder Liang said.
"That may not be the case. If I find him, I believe he will be moved by me!" Lin Long said directly.
Lin Long had a lot of chips, and just the Purple Flame Talisman was already enough to move Qin Shu's heart. Of course, he would not use the Purple Flame Talisman crafting method to trade, he would at most take out a Purple Flame Talisman.
If Wu Ziheng gave him the Purple Tiger blood essence.
"If Young Master is so confident, then you can try him. However, Qin Shu is also nowhere to be found, and he spent most of his time away from the Ice Peak Country. Thus, the possibility of him entering the Royal Secret Realm is already in the past." Elder Liang said.
"I can only try." Lin Long frowned.
The next thing he wanted to do was ask these people to find out where such a mask existed. At the same time, he wanted to know where Qin Shu was.
Even though Lin Long had instructed them, only Elder Liang acted. After all, the others were all at the Mask Academy previously, so they didn't really know what the outside world was like.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On the third day, the youth from before showed up again.
This time around, he directly met Lin Long.
"Greetings Lin Gongzi." Seeing Lin Long, he replied respectfully.
"What news from Miss Zhou's side?" Lin Long asked directly.
"The Second Miss said that she was unable to participate in this competition. However, she has found another candidate. She is one of her best friends, the eldest miss of the Qian family, Qian Jiayi." The youth said.
After a short pause, he continued, "Miss Qian will be coming to find Young Master within two days."
"Sure." Lin Long nodded.
The other person said, "However, what Miss Qian said is a little troublesome."
"What's the trouble?" Lin Long asked.
"Miss Qian is not strong. She has not completely mastered the rank 2 Ice Talisman. With her strength, it would be difficult for her to enter the secret realm." The youth said.
"Is that so?" Lin Long frowned.
"However, there's nothing we can do about that, because the second lady really can't find anyone else. After all, the young master's background is unknown, so it's very difficult to get others to take him as a subordinate. After thinking about it, the second miss can only be *." The youth said.
"Alright then." Lin Long replied.
"Then, this one will take my leave." After speaking, the youth left.
On the second day he left, a nineteen twenty year old girl brought two people to find Lin Long.
"This must be the Lin Gongzi?" Seeing Lin Long, the other party laughed.
After he finished laughing, the other party asked in confusion, "Lin Gongzi, why didn't you take off this big bamboo hat?"
"Due to some reasons, it is temporarily inconvenient for me to reveal my true appearance." Lin Long said.
Hearing Lin Long's words, the other party did not continue asking. It was clear that she believed in Zhou Yingxue, if it was anyone else, they would not be able to see Lin Long's true face.
Lin Long then asked, "This lady must be the Qian Family's Qian Jiayi right?"
"Exactly." The other party nodded.
As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his clothes. Looking at this jade pendant, Lin Long believed the other party's words even more, as this jade pendant was something that Zhou Yingxue had worn earlier.
"Ying Xue sent someone to find me, saying that she wants me to bring you into the Royal Secret Realm, because of my relationship with Ying Xue, I agreed, and of course, because of a sentence Ying Xue said, he said that you are very strong, and that if I bring you in, you will be able to accomplish a lot in the secret realm!"
At this point, she couldn't help but laugh, "Of course, all of this is on the premise that I can enter the secret realm through the competition."
Lin Long replied, "I've already heard that you haven't completely grasped the second level Ice Talisman Paper, Miss Qian. It's a little difficult to enter the secret realm through the competition."
"That's the situation." Qian Jiayi said in embarrassment.
"About this, let me teach you. Perhaps it can allow your strength to increase by leaps and bounds within this month." Lin Long said.
"Is this for real?" Qian Jiayi couldn't believe it.
"What's done is done, how would you know if you don't try, Miss Qian?" Lin Long laughed.
"Alright then, I'll give it a try." Qian Jiayi nodded.
"Then, from tomorrow onwards, come here for half a day every day." Lin Long said directly.
"Alright!" Qian Jiayi answered directly.
In the following days, Qian Jiayi would come to Lin Long's place early in the morning. As for Lin Long, he taught her attentively.
In the beginning, Lin Long was not 100% sure, but after he understood Qian Jiayi's abilities, he was sure.
Of course, other than teaching them, Lin Long had also made Qian Jiayi take his special Tranquil Spirit Pill. His special Tranquil Spirit Pill had a much better effect than the ones he had previously sold.
The result of the two-pronged approach was that Qian Jiayi could clearly feel her strength increasing.
"Lin Gongzi is really powerful!" She couldn't help but praise this increase in strength.
After praising, she couldn't help but ask again, "Lin Gongzi, did you give me the Tranquil Spirit Pill that was sold at the Tranquil Spirit Pill Shop?"
0
Previously, she had asked, but Lin Long did not answer.
Seeing her continue to ask, Lin Long replied, "That's right, it's the medicinal pellets from there."
"The Tranquil Spirit Pills there are not cheap at the moment, and they are priceless. May I ask where did you get them from, my lord?" Hearing Lin Long's words, Qian Jiayi could not help but say.
"Prices but no markets? "What do you mean?" Lin Long asked doubtfully.
To be honest, he didn't know anything about the Tranquil Spirit Pill since he had been in the Mask Academy for so long.
"At that time, I don't know why the Tranquil Spirit Pill Shop stopped selling the Tranquil Spirit Pill. Later, the Zhou family in Eternal River City announced that they had obtained the Tranquil Spirit Pill formula and started concocting it, but what was unexpected was that the Zhou family was only talking about it, they did not even manage to concoct a single Tranquil Spirit Pill!" Qian Jiayi said.
"That shouldn't be the case!" Lin Long could not help but frown.
He had personally made a trip to the Zhou Mansion and given Zhou Han the pill formula for the Tranquil Spirit Pill.
Could something have happened to the Zhou family? He could not help but think of this.
At this time, he had forgotten one thing, and that was that he had forgotten about the decree.
It looked like he had to get someone to find Zhou Ling and ask him what had happened.
"Why does Lin Gongzi say that, could it be that they are very familiar with the Zhou family in Yongjiang city?" Qian Jiayi asked doubtfully.
"Of course I'm not familiar with them. It's just strange." Lin Long laughed.
Then he continued to explain, "I bought a lot in the past, so now I have some left over."
"So that's how it is." Qian Jiayi couldn't help but nod her head.
Lin Long's words did not give her any doubt.
After thinking about it, Lin Long asked, "Does Miss Qian know what happened to the Zhou family in Yongjiang city?"
