Chapter 118 Burning Sky Shark Oil and Mirage Mask(1/2)

"Yesterday, the Jade Lady Fairy said that she has almost prepared the amount of shark oil that my eldest brother wants.

"Now I'm just waiting for my brother's instructions. Before the ribbon-cutting ceremony, I'll find an opportunity to transport it into Di Gong Gate unknowingly."

On the second day of the Xu lunar month, the lanterns are lit for the first time. It is the time when thousands of homes in Longcheng County are lit up.

In the deep house of the Liu family on Xiaogushan, in the west hall where the dining table was unattended, there was a sickly-looking young man in brocade clothes, squinting his eyes and whispering, conspiring with his brother.

"Brother, we need thirty barrels this time, which is more than before. The Jade Fairy also took a long time to prepare and get it all together. Speaking of which, she worked very hard."

"Hard work? Who doesn't work hard?"

When Liu Ziwen heard this, he curled his lips and glanced at the second brother who said the nice things, and frowned slightly:

"But it didn't hold me back in the end. After eating the Liu family's food, it was still somewhat useful."

Liu Zian raised the corners of his mouth and smiled:

"I called her here to ask."

After saying this, the second young master of the Liu family called Liu Fu, the lame butler, and gave a few instructions before the latter was ordered to leave.

Liu Zian turned around and said:

"Brother, Ouyang Lianghan takes Xie's daughter around the Dickong Gate all day long. When he returns home at night, he sends his subordinates to patrol the gate day and night. This batch of shark oil may not be easy to send in."

Liu Ziwen nodded, "I'll find a way."

"good."

Beside the two of them, Liu Zilin listened honestly for a while, then added with a serious expression:

"Big brother and second brother, we have to pay attention to that little girl named Xie. With her following Ouyang Lianghan, she may be able to rescue Ouyang Lianghan when the gate collapses."

"So the amount of shark oil arranged this time is larger than before, and the preparation will be more grand than before. Even Qi practitioners will have trouble escaping."

Liu Ziwen glanced at his third brother who had learned to think, and nodded slightly:

"But Third Brother's worries are not unreasonable. We will try our best to lure Ouyang Lianghan and Shen Xisheng to the middle section of the gate. As for Xie Lingjiang... we will see if we can lure her away by then."

"So good!"

Liu Zilin clenched his fist and hammered his palm, looking out the door, a violent look flashed in his eyes:

"What a grand and splendid ribbon-cutting ceremony. I will definitely be there to take a good look at how your arrogant face of Ouyang Lianghan was blown to pieces!"

Just as the words fell.

Liu Zilin, whose face was flushed with excitement, suddenly widened his eyes. He saw Ouyang Rong, who was dressed in official uniform, walked straight into the west hall through the night outside the door, came to the dining table where the dishes were already cold, and faced the three of them calmly.

Brother sits down.

"Ouyang Lianghan!"

It was like thunder exploding from the ground.

The three brothers of the Liu family exclaimed, and their reactions varied instantly.

"Grass!"

Liu Zilin fell to the ground with a stool and an old injury on his hip, and let out a miserable howl.

I guess I'll have to sleep on my stomach again these nights.

"you……"

Liu Zian, who was smiling and plotting just a second ago, suddenly changed his face, stood up with a "whoosh", took a step back, and knocked down the wooden bench with a "thump".

Liu Ziwen still sat in his original position, keeping his hand on the edge of the table and steadying his body.

The young head of the Liu family tilted his head and frowned, staring intently at the familiar young county magistrate across from him that made people want to get rid of him.

Good guy, I was "plotting loudly" just now, but the real person came directly and unceremoniously!

Faced with the different violent reactions of the three Liu brothers.

The young county magistrate who suddenly appeared in front of the table looked calm and even raised his hand to rest his chin.

His eyes swept across the faces of Liu Ziwen, Liu Zian, and Liu Zilin indifferently.

Liu Zilin stood up from the fallen stool and looked at Ouyang Rong with a strange expression on his face, as if he had seen a ghost during the day:

"How did you get in here?"

This is the Liu family mansion that is heavily guarded. It can withstand a siege for half a day even if it is besieged by 300 full-armor Chongfu cavalry.

Liu Zian turned his head hurriedly and looked at the dark night outside the door.

I don't know whether he was waiting for the private slave soldiers, or looking for Xie Lingjiang and the county government agents who might have breached Liu's house.

Liu Ziwen's eyes always fell on the face of the uninvited guest across the table. When he heard the footsteps of Liu Fu and others hurriedly approaching outside the door, he suddenly said:

"You...are not Ouyang Lianghan."

Liu Zian and Liu Zilin were both stunned.

The young magistrate who came uninvited to the table nodded slightly, and the hand that was holding his chin pinched the edges of his face on both sides of his chin, as if taking off a mask, and silently took off a bronze animal mask.

There seemed to be a momentary rotation of light and shadow in the air.

The next breath, the three brothers Liu Ziwen, Liu Zi'an, and Liu Zilin looked closely again. Sitting in front of the table was the slender young county magistrate, who was clearly a middle-aged priestess wearing a dark robe.

The priestess's face was somewhat fleshy and covered in colorful paint. Her true face could not be clearly seen, and all she could see was a pair of gloomy eyes.

Her hair was tied into dreadlocks with colorful ribbons, and her dark sacrificial clothes were hung with jingling and complicated ornaments, including small bells, bones, and gems.

"The Jade Fairy?"

Liu Zilin said in surprise, the nervousness and panic on his face gradually disappeared, and he stood up.

Liu Ziwen and Liu Zian either frowned or looked sideways.

Liu Ziwen looked at his second brother, who shrugged and shook his head, indicating that he had no idea that he had realized the evil disguise technique of the Jade Lady Fairy Society.

The Jade Fairy held the newly cast bronze animal mask in one hand and said calmly:

"The shark oil is ready, thirty barrels, all in the yard."

After saying that, she gestured to the three Liu brothers with the bronze animal mask in her hand:

"This is a little reward for helping me recast the Mirage Mask."

"Mirage Mask?" Liu Zilin couldn't help but take a second look.

The Jade Fairy nodded and said briefly:

"Same as the Burning Sky Shark Oil, they are both immortal arts acquired by the seniors of the immortal sect in my lineage while searching for immortals overseas.

"Unexpectedly, it matches my sect's Qi training magic. As long as it is a 'sacrificial object' sacrificed by this immortal in that ritual, a mirage mask is cast. When I put it on, I can temporarily transform into '

The appearance of a sacrificial object has the charm of reincarnation and rebirth."

As if aware of the different gazes of the three Liu brothers, the Jade Fairy frowned slightly, turned her hands to put away the mirage mask, and said coldly:

"This technique and this thing is a secret that is not passed down by our sect and can only be used by this immortal."

Liu Ziwen looked away and didn't care anymore. He looked at Liu Fu and ordered:

"Pack up the Burning Sky Shark Oil in the courtyard. It will be used soon."

"Yes, sir."

Liu Fu accepted the order and retreated. Before leaving, he couldn't help but take a second look at the weird and strange Jade Fairy.

"I'm scared to death, you idiot!"

Liu Zilin breathed a sigh of relief, stood up with his buttocks in hand, and kicked the wooden stool under his feet away as if he was discouraged.

In fact, I couldn't sit still and touched an old wound on my butt.

Liu Zian looked at the Jade Fairy and asked thoughtfully:

"Is this the proof you said you wanted to show us that day?"

Liu Ziwen and Liu Zilin looked at each other in confusion.

The Jade Fairy nodded and snorted coldly:

"That person must have died that day. Otherwise, how could I have been promoted to the eighth level, and how could I have gathered my spiritual energy to cast this mirage mask? You believe me this time, right?"

Liu Zian couldn't help but said:

"Then who is still running around in the county government office and causing us trouble?"

The Jade Fairy had a cold face and said stubbornly:

"Anyway, I succeeded. This person now is definitely not the original person."

Liu Zilin looked thoughtful and couldn't help but speculate on the test question:

"Is it possible that, like you, the Jade Lady Fairy, you know the art of mirage masking and wore a mask to replace Ouyang Lianghan as the county magistrate?"

The Jade Fairy frowned, thought for a while, and shook her head:

"For a mirage that can last for such a long time, if there is no precious Qi-replenishing elixir, then this kind of spiritual Qi cultivation must be at least a top-grade Qi practitioner, or even a rank higher than the top-grade, such as a divine being from China.
