After making sufficient preparations, we set off. I don't know what time of the year it is or what time of the month it is.
I don't know what kind of existence this dimensional realm is, but I can confirm that the people here have been exposed to the sun for a long time, and even their skin feels a little sick.
According to the directions on the map, we accurately found the Aristocratic District. To be honest, these three areas were too different. When they reached the region where the upper class society was located, they did not look like a gloomy and terrifying Netherworld Valley at all. Instead, they looked like a magnificent imperial garden.
The architecture here was unique, with some Arabic and some European styles mixed together. I reckon it's because the people who escaped to this place have all kinds of countries and races, so they've all fused their cultures together, which is why they have this weird looking building in front of them.
However, these buildings were indeed grand and magnificent. He really didn't know what kind of people lived inside.
This large imperial garden was guarded by two guards with guns. They looked solemn and serious.
Please stop, this is not a place you can casually enter!
Just as we were about to enter, one of the guards stopped us. This was within our expectations.
We are here to find a maid called Tranquil East. He is working here for a long time, and we came to him. We have already contacted him.
Oh? Are you the new servants? Wait here for me to go in and ask!
After this brawl and a deeper understanding of him, I was no longer impressed with Asan as a brave, but mindless outlaw. It was only after you had a deeper understanding that you knew that he had set up many spies and plans for himself in order to achieve this goal.
He was actually a very meticulous person, and he was very accurate in his judgement. He had told me that from the moment he first saw us, he had a feeling that the person he had been waiting for all these years had finally arrived.
That guard came out with a gun. That's right, the lord did say that there were four servants who wanted to help us today. It should be these four people. Three men and one woman. Asian. Alright, you can go in now. The person you are looking for is waiting for you at the front. You must communicate with him first.
The guard was kind enough to remind us that we nodded in acknowledgment, bowed to him, and went in.
In front of him stood a girl dressed like a maid. She was plain looking with pockmarks all over her face. She also had a pair of strange eyes and two braids that made her look very old-fashioned.
This movie was completely different. In fact, as a spy, spy or even spy, his appearance should be ordinary, even ordinary. This way, he wouldn't attract his attention and could accomplish his job better.
The handsome men and women in the old movies were good at being spies, but only to satisfy the tastes of the audience.
You guys aren't coming anymore, I've been waiting for you guys for a long time. I'm Li Li who came here to receive you guys, and I've already gotten the news about the current situation.
Although this woman's appearance was not impressive, there was a shrewdness in her eyes and her tone of voice sounded simple and capable. I guessed that he must have done the relevant work before he escaped here.
Sorry to trouble you, we are not familiar with anything here for the first time, so what should we do first?
First of all, you don't have to be too nervous. In fact, this place isn't as scary as you think. The people here are arrogant and never take anyone seriously. After that, in three days, there will be a grand banquet. Since I don't have enough manpower, I will be entrusted with it. It just so happens that you guys have come. This is an excellent opportunity. During last year's banquet, we could have done a lot of things!
This was the legendary coincidence that I came early. I didn't expect that after arriving here, we would have to hold a grand banquet. That was why we were able to sneak in as servants.
That means we're supposed to be disguised as helpers, right?
Yes, you can come over first. I want to tell you about the areas and missions that you are mainly responsible for. This way, you will be able to move around here without any restrictions on your surveillance and movement.
Master Zhang frowned, so where was the seven-step lotus flower?
I looked at him incredulously and said, Master, haven't you ever been here before? And you've seen that lotus too, so why don't you know where it is?
Master Zhang shook his head. I have indeed seen it before, but I only found out later that what I saw was only a fake and not real. So, after a lot of effort, I still can't make a perfect lotus clay sculpture.
The people inside were also scum like that. Now that they found out a fake one, it was probably because they were afraid that someone would try to rob them.
Li Li nodded her head. That's right, there's no need to talk about you guys, I have worked here for such a long time, and I have never seen where the lotus flower that everyone spoke of is …
If we say it like that, then things are going to be troublesome. We don't even know where the things are. In just three short days, how can we complete the mission? I cursed in my heart.
That is to say, we need to accurately find that lotus flower's treasure and steal it on the same day of the banquet within three days? Fu Junqing dragged his chin.
Li Li nodded his head, that's right, it's exactly like this, you only have three days, your entire plan is to steal the seven-step lotus flower that day, and the entire Tianhua Palace will lose the protection of the gods. And that's when Asan will charge in with his men and wipe them out!
His wishful thinking was indeed right, and he was not an ordinary person either.
After that, Li Li brought us to the locker room and gave each of us a set of clothes to change into.
I'm still a steward here, and I can assign jobs. So, girl, you follow me and take care of the personnel here. This way you get to know more people, so it's easier to get information. Uncle, because of your image, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to a very elegant place. You can go to the wine cellar at the back and manage all the wine and the wine set. These two little brothers, their image and temperament are still alright, you can be the deacons. Like this, our spies spread throughout the entire Tianhua Palace. This way, we can guarantee that we can find the thing accurately within three days.
When all four of us were dressed, I couldn't help laughing.
Perhaps the difference between our image and our status was too great. Once the four of us put on this kind of clothes, we would feel as though we wouldn't even know each other anymore.
However, what made my eyes light up was still Zhang Ziyuan. Although he was also wearing a suit and tie, he had never worn this kind of stylish deacon tailcoat, making him look really pleasing to the eyes.
Wife, what happened to you? Was there a fire recently? Why did it start bleeding from his nose?
Heavens, why can't I control it? This obsession of mine can't be cured no matter where I go.
I hurriedly found a reason. Perhaps it was because I was too tired from the last two days, especially after those three matches. My mental strength was truly exhausted, and my nose was bleeding normally.
I blushed myself, all right? I could whisper the truth to him when there was no one around, but it would be better to lie now.
After receiving our respective assignments, we split up. I followed Li Li and he told me a lot of things to pay attention to when working here.
By the way, is there often a grand banquet here?
It wasn't often. Usually, there would only be banquets or garden parties when there were happy events. This time, it was the First Lady, who was extremely powerful and powerful, who was waiting for her youngest son for the full moon. There was such a grand banquet.
The Netherworld Valley was a very strange place. Why were there different levels of people here? When they arrived at this place, everyone was a nobleman. They all felt that even if a child was to live past the full moon, there would still be a big banquet going on.
That's right, that person was the First Lady! As she spoke, Li Li pointed to a balcony on a tall building. There were many beautiful tulips under the balcony, all of them in different colors. It also showed how noble the owner of this room was.
Behind the balcony stood a beautiful middle-aged woman. Although she looked to be in her forties or fifties, she still retained her charm.
There was no trace of age on his face. His skin was smooth and smooth.
This person was probably the first lady that Li Li had mentioned.
Li Li, why is that middle-aged woman called the first lady? If it was said that everyone here was under the protection of the seven-step lotus flower, why would everyone here have a different identity and rank?
Actually, what you can see here is that there are all sorts of things in the world, such as the upper class, such as ugliness and beauty. This First Lady didn't have such a high status in the beginning, but she was actually the smartest woman I've ever met. She was tactful, and any man would have to bow under her skirt.
Indeed, this was a common occurrence in the real world. The society we live in is originally a society of freedom and equality. Hmm, why do we have to be divided into different classes? Some people live in the clouds and don't have to worry about status, but some people are stepped on in the mud.
Perhaps some people would think that the world was unfair to begin with, but it was undeniable that the upper class of a real society relied on their own brains and hard work. Those people were the elites among elites.
Thank you for explaining so much to me. I suddenly understood a lot of things. Even if I were to leave this place, I can still enjoy a lifetime.
