Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou sat inside the carriage, but they didn't close the doors and windows. Instead, they looked outside. Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou quickly discovered that there weren't any beggars in the Spirit Snake City. Even if there were some handicapped people, they were still working. Moreover, from their clothes, one could see that they were living a good life.
This shocked the two of them. The Lost Soul City-State was a famous place of chaos. Moreover, the Lost Soul City-State hadn't been established for a long time. They didn't think that it would become like this. This was completely different from what they imagined. The two of them didn't know what to say.
The carriage kept going and stopping. After about half an hour, it stopped at a square. Then the coachman's voice was heard, "Two Sirs, we have arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. Please get off."
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou came down from the carriage. They turned their heads and saw that there was a building beside the square with the words' City Lord's Mansion 'written on it. However, it was different from the other City Lord's Mansions. The other City Lord's Mansions didn't have many people in front of them. The number of people who went to the City Lord's Mansion was very limited. This was because ordinary people simply didn't have the qualifications to enter the City Lord's Mansion.
On the other hand, the Spirit Snake City's City Lord's Mansion was completely different. All kinds of people went in and out of the City Lord's Mansion. There wasn't a single moment of peace in front of the City Lord's Mansion.
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou looked at the City Lord's Mansion with a puzzled expression. They hadn't seen this kind of City Lord's Mansion before. The coachman seemed to know what the two were thinking, so he said, "Two Sirs, the Spirit Snake City's City Lord's Mansion is a place where people come to do business. Therefore, there are a lot of people here. You don't need to worry about it, just go in. The fare is ten copper coins."
Eldest Brother Hou nodded, then he took out a handful of copper coins and gave it to the coachman. The coachman gave a salute to the two before he turned around and left. Eldest Brother Hou turned his head to look at the City Lord's Mansion, then he turned his head to Second Brother Hou and said, "Let's go in." Second Brother Hou nodded, then the two went straight into the City Lord's Mansion.
Before long, the two arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. In front of the gate, nobody stopped them. However, when the two entered the mansion, they found themselves in an awkward situation. This was because the mansion was filled with houses with all kinds of signs hanging on them. It was very strange. The two didn't know where to go for a while.
After a while, the two finally saw a room called the Inquiry Room. The two walked in and couldn't help but be surprised. There were a lot of people in the room. Facing the door, there was a bar with a row of women sitting behind it. These women were wearing ordinary clothes and looked very beautiful.
The two looked at the people in the room and found that these people were wearing all kinds of clothes. Some of them looked very poor, their clothes were patched, while others were wearing silk clothes. At first glance, one could tell that they weren't lacking in money. But now, they were standing in line, and the line in front of each woman wasn't short.
When Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou saw this, they also knew what was going on. The two didn't say anything as they lined up.
Before long, Eldest Brother Hou was in front of the line. The woman at the bar looked at Eldest Brother Hou and smiled faintly, "Do you have something to ask?"
Eldest Brother Hou immediately replied, "Hello, I'm here to rescue Mister Stonehammer. I brought a message from Mister Crane Grass. How can I meet Mister Stonehammer?"
When the woman heard Boss Hou, she stared for a moment before she smiled and said, "Mister, it's not difficult for you to see Mister Stonehammer. You just need to go to the City Lord's Mansion and head to the second gate. There are guards there, and not just anyone can enter. You just need to tell the guards and they'll help you pass on the message."
When Eldest Brother Hou heard the woman, he quickly said, "Then thank you." Then the two turned around and left the room, heading towards the City Lord's Mansion. Before long, the two arrived at the mansion's second gate. Sure enough, there were guards there. When Eldest Brother Hou arrived, he cupped his fist towards one of the guards and said, "Hello, I want to see Mister Stonehammer. I have a message from Mister Tian Crane Grass, please pass it on."
The guard looked at Eldest Brother Hou and said, "Mister, please wait a moment." Then he turned around and walked towards the second gate. Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou weren't in a hurry, they just stood there and waited.
Before long, the guard came out of the second gate, then he cupped his fist towards the two and said, "Mister Stonehammer invites you in." Then he made an inviting gesture towards the two. The two cupped their fist towards the guard and then entered the second gate. Just as they entered the second gate, a servant came over and cupped his fist towards the two and said, "You want to see Mister Stonehammer? Please follow me. "After saying that, the servant led the way for the two of them and walked straight into the mansion.
Before long, the servant led the two to a courtyard, where Stonehammer was standing. Stonehammer had met the two before, so when he saw the two, he knew that they might really be here to deliver Zhao Hai's message. So he cupped his fist and said, "So it's you two. Greetings, please come in." Then he made a gesture of invitation. Stonehammer smiled and said, "So it's you two.
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou cupped their fist towards Stonehammer before following him into the courtyard. There was a row of rooms in the courtyard. Stonehammer led the two to the living room. Stonehammer and the others were already waiting for them in the living room.
After everyone gave their greetings, they invited the two to sit down. Shi Chui looked at the two and said, "I wonder what message did the Young Master ask you to pass on to us?"
When Eldest Brother Hou heard Stonehammer, he replied, "To be honest, besides the time when we led Mister Tian to the Secret Realm, we haven't seen him since. He was assigned to a very dangerous place. But some time ago, one of Mister Tian's subordinates met us in the Secret Realm. He was the one who told us to meet Mister Stonehammer. Mister Tian's message is very simple, he wants Mister Stonehammer to give him the coordinates of the base."
Upon hearing Boss Hou, Stonehammer and the others relaxed. This was because this was the secret signal that Zhao Hai and the others had agreed on. Zhao Hai had long wanted to go to the Secret Realm to take a look. At the same time, Zhao Hai also wanted to give Stonehammer and the others an opportunity to enter the Secret Realm. However, it was impossible for Stonehammer and the others to use the transmission formation to enter the Secret Realm. Because of this, when Zhao Hai left, he told Stonehammer and the others that if someone were to give them the coordinates of the base, then it would prove that this person was trustworthy. Then Stonehammer and the others would give them the things that Zhao Hai left behind.
Stonehammer let out a long breath and said, "Alright, I understand. Please wait for a moment." After he said that, he walked towards his room. Before long, he came out of the room and placed a ring on the table. Then he turned to the two and said, "This is what the Young Master wanted. I'll have to trouble you to give it to him."
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou looked at the ring on the table and couldn't help but be puzzled. They wanted the coordinates, but Stonehammer only gave them a ring. What was going on?
Stonehammer looked at the two and smiled faintly, "You don't need to be surprised. Actually, the message that the Young Master wanted you to give is a secret signal. As long as you hear it, we'll give you the ring. You don't need to be surprised. Just take the ring back and give it to the Young Master."
When the two heard Stonehammer, they understood what was going on. The two couldn't help but sigh at Zhao Hai's ability to make such arrangements.
Eldest Brother Hou looked at Stonehammer and said, "Mister Stonehammer, what if we came to you but didn't say the secret signal? What would happen?"
Stonehammer smiled faintly and said, "Then it would mean that the two of you are lying. If that's the case, then we won't be polite. Moreover, I'm not afraid to tell you that the Young Master didn't just leave this secret signal. This secret signal is useless after it's used. If you come to us again and say the wrong signal, then we won't be polite either."
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, they didn't rush to look for Stonehammer. Otherwise, they would've been dead by now. They also discovered that Zhao Hai's strength wasn't only his strength, but also his scheming.
Stonehammer looked at the two and said, "You don't need to be surprised. Since the Young Master trusts you, then I'm sure that the next time you come, the Young Master will still give you the secret signal. As long as you don't say the wrong signal, then there shouldn't be any problems. What do you want to do next? Do you want to stay here for a few days or return to the Secret Realm? I think the two of you should stay here for a few days. It's not easy for you to come out. "
Old Man Hou shook his head, then he bitterly smiled and said, "Forget it, I won't hide it from you. The situation in the Mystic Realm was very complicated. Now that I think about it, we're on the same side as Mister Tian. Our main purpose in coming out of the Mystic Realm was to meet you. Right, Mister Tian seems to need some plant seeds, the seeds of ordinary plants in the Spirit Weapon Realm. I wonder if you can help me prepare some so that I can bring them back."
Stonehammer stared, then he immediately said, "Alright, that's not a problem. The Young Master has a habit of collecting all kinds of plant seeds. We have a lot of them here. Please wait a moment, I'll go get them for you." Then he turned around and walked out of the living room. Before long, he came back with a bag. This bag wasn't very big, so it wasn't very troublesome to carry it.
Shi Chui placed the bag on the ground and said, "Gentlemen, these are the seeds that we've collected during this period of time. All of them are wild seeds. Please bring them to the Young Master. The Young Master likes wild seeds, he doesn't like artificial crops. I think that the seeds that he wants should also be this kind. There are a lot of small bags in this bag, you can give them to the Young Master." Shi Chui nodded and said, "Alright.
Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou didn't expect this matter to be resolved so easily. They immediately nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll be heading back. There are still a lot of things to do in the Secret Realm. Everyone, we'll be taking our leave."
Shi Chui looked at Eldest Brother Hou and said, "Alright, then you can go back first. We won't keep you here. After all, the Young Master's matter is very important. Take care." Eldest Brother Hou and Second Brother Hou didn't say anything. Instead, they stood up and cupped their fists towards Shi Chui and the others. Then they took the bag and the storage ring before they left the City Lord's Mansion and headed towards the transmission formation.
After seeing the two leave, Shi Chui and the others gathered in the living room. After the group sat down, Iron Thread looked at Shi Chui and said, "It seems like the Young Master is coming back. We should prepare to receive him. Right, what's the situation in the base? How are Mister Insect and the others? "
Stone Hammer said, "Don't worry, the situation in the base is very good. Mister Insect and the others are doing well there. Moreover, the base has been tidied up and can be used at any time. With the situation there, even if the Young Master moves everyone from the Mystic Realm there, no one in the Spirit Weapon Realm would know." Hearing this, everyone nodded and didn't say anything else.
Before Zhao Hai entered the Secret Realm, although he didn't know much about it, he still made some preparations. It's just that before entering the Secret Realm, he didn't expect that there would be people from the Sacred Academy. Because of this, he didn't make any preparations. The reason why he wanted to use the base in the Lost Mountain was because he wanted to use the power there to gain a foothold in the Secret Realm. At the same time, he would be able to freely enter and exit the Secret Realm and the Spirit Weapon Realm. After all, if he enters and exits the Spirit Snake City, then he might be discovered. Because of this, he wanted to activate the base in the Lost Mountain.
Nobody in the Spirit Weapon Realm knew about the base in the Soul Captivating Mountains. Moreover, the Soul Captivating Mountains was now under the control of Soul Captivating City-State. It was impossible for people to discover the base. Therefore, there was no problem in activating the base. As for the transmission formation that leads to the Soul Realm, it had already been sealed by Zhao Hai. The reason why Zhao Hai was sure that he could get a transmission formation from the Secret Realm to the Spirit Weapon Realm was mainly because of the transmission formation in the base. The transmission formation was a transmission formation that could be used across space. As long as Zhao Hai replicated the transmission formation and changed its coordinates, then he would be able to use it.
The reason why Zhao Hai was so anxious to leave the Secret Realm was because of the safety of the Lost Soul City-State. The Lost Soul City-State's strength wasn't weak, but until now, there hasn't been a single Broken River Realm expert. This was the shortcoming of the Lost Soul City-State. Moreover, as the City Lord of the Lost Soul City-State, if Zhao Hai didn't appear for a long time, it would arouse suspicion. Therefore, Zhao Hai needed to leave the Lost Soul City-State as soon as possible. He needed to show his face from time to time so that others wouldn't suspect him.
It's just that Zhao Hai didn't think that the base would affect the overall situation. He only wanted to ensure the safety of the Lost Soul City-State. However, he didn't think that this move would affect the situation of the entire Secret Realm.
