Then, with Ji Lin and A Lin looking confused, Cang Xuan Zhi Shu stroked his chin with his hand and thought:
"At any time, without money, you can't move forward. Look at the night view of the city outside the window. Now it should be the era of science and technology. The business I built back then must have been completely ruined by that stupid guy. I have to make some money first!"
"Huh?"×2
"Let's go back to Taixu Mountain first. I have buried some ceramics and antiques from past dynasties. As the saying goes, antiques are valuable in prosperous times. If we dig them out now, they should be worth a lot of money. With the start-up funds, we can set up some industries and recruit some people. After everything is arranged, we can still find Elmhead."
"Eh!?" ×2
Both of them were stunned by this clear and unique idea.
The same goes for Ji Lin.
After finally waking up, the first thing he did was to make money. What kind of boss is this? But thinking about it, it seems normal. After all, he is the successor of Cang Xuan. Without this awareness of making money, where did Fu Hua get the money for food and clothing in those years?
However, Tianhuo frowned, as if he had followed Cangxuanshu's thoughts, and asked:
"Selling antiques? How many?"
"Lots. Everything you need."
Cangxuanshu said calmly.
So Tianhuo looked at the gray snake.
Gray Snake leaned forward and said:
"World Serpent can assist in the sale. We have the channels to maximize the exchange of funds."
"That's a great help! In return, I will receive 10% of the sales proceeds as start-up capital, and the rest will be yours."
Cangxuanshu said with a smile on his face.
Gray Snake was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"You are Mr. Hua's close associate. We will not embezzle your funds. It is free of charge."
"But I want to donate it to you! There is no work in Taixu Mountain that requires a large amount of funds to support it. One tenth is enough for me. I want to use the rest in a more meaningful place. If I can provide a little help for Lord Kevin's plan, it will be Xiaoxuan's greatest honor."
Loving money but not being enslaved by it is Cang Xuan Zhi Shu's nature. She always knows what is more important.
Gray Snake had to look at Skyfire.
But Tianhuo laughed and nodded slightly.
Gray Snake couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. Although they were not colleagues in the same plan, the friendship from the Huazhen Camp still made Gray Snake feel the long-lost warmth.
I always feel that after the Thousand Worlds and One Vehicle was lost, the situation suddenly improved, and the connection with Taixu Mountain was reestablished. Everything is developing in a good direction!
This is all thanks to the return of Lord Tianhuo!
……
"Ah sneeze!"
In the early morning of Eastern Europe, the wind was so bitingly cold that even the long-eared pink witch couldn't help sneezing.
Then she rubbed her nose and blinked in a silly and confused manner.
"Strange, Herrscher can also catch a cold?"
"Call Yaezakura! Call Yaezakura!"
'I'm here, what for?'
'Where have you been, donkey spirit?'
"It's a fox, not a donkey!"
There was a hint of sadness on Yaesakura's gentle and beautiful face, and she roared in her heart.
'It doesn't matter! You're in Europe? So fast?'
"In modern society, transportation is very fast. I know that Karen's hometown is in Europe. How slow can it be if I have a goal?"
'Okay, just let it go. Have you noticed anything?'
'Yes, especially after landing in Europe, I could clearly feel that there were more and more eyes in the dark.'
"Haha! Then you do your best, if you don't succeed, you will die. If something goes wrong, remember to send your core back before you die!"
'Stop talking nonsense and get lost! Just watch my show!'
In her heart, Yaesakura Angel angrily scolded those ruthless clones who refused to admit their mistakes after playing, and then looked at the town with sadness.
"Karen, in which direction is your hometown?"
She murmured and walked slowly in the morning mist.
At the same time, in the distant headquarters of Satori, Otto crushed the teacup in his hand and looked at the information displayed on the virtual projection screen, with an ugly and uncertain expression on his handsome face.
Chapter 138: Madam Returns to the Arena
A beautiful beast-eared priestess who looked like a fairy was asking for information about Saint Karen along the way and came to Europe in a circle.
Is it a trap?
When Otto first learned about this, his first thought was - someone is plotting against him!
But he later denied this possibility.
Today, more than five hundred years later, no one knows his true obsession, let alone the full picture of his plan. It is impossible for anyone to plot against him in this way!
Based on this knowledge, Otto quickly ordered a thorough investigation of all the information about this strange witch. And the intelligence department of Tenman, not worthy of the huge amount of funds invested in them every year, delivered detailed information to Otto.
"The shrine maiden who calls herself Yaezakura first appeared in the ruins of Nagashora City. She killed the assassins and saved people. She asked all the way how to get to Europe - Nagashora City, Yaezakura?"
This was information he had already known. The Yae Ancient Village was located within the current Changkong City.
Even during the collapse of Changkong City, Otto paid attention to the situation there and knew that Theresa was saved by a pseudo-Herser who was suspected to be Yaezakura.
"So she didn't disappear after that? Or did she come back from the dead?"
Otto ruffled his hair irritably.
Today, things that can cause such a change in his emotions are very rare. Even during Delta's Herrscher experiment, he remained quite calm from beginning to end.
"He killed people who approached with malicious intent along the way, but the people around him completely lost their memories afterwards? Was it the ability to control thoughts? Was the Key of Erosion completed? Or was the Herrscher of Erosion resurrected?"
"Sure enough, she got on the flight this way, and she didn't even know about buying a ticket - but there were no innocent casualties, and she was able to control herself, so was it the completion of the Erosion Key that brought her back to life?"
"She's looking for Karen's hometown and..."
"cemetery!"
This word, which can be equated with death, aroused the sorrow and rage hidden in the deepest part of his heart.
Otto crushed the file in his hand.
Amber, who was waiting nearby, was startled.
"Lord Otto?"
"I'm fine, leave me alone for a while."
Otto had a gloomy expression, suppressed his chaotic thoughts, and tried to find the key thinking direction.
"Yaezakura..."
"Yaezakura..."
"Yae Sakura!"
The repeated words he murmured to himself became more and more depressing.
Otto had once deliberately forgotten this name, which he had only heard from Karin, and this name that was most closely related to Karin. But now, he had to dig it out of his mind once again.
All kinds of thoughts washed over him like a surging wave. Finally, Otto stood up, with a cold expression, and asked Amber:
"Where is she now?"
"Still wandering around the towns in northern Germany, seemingly without any direction. After all, Master Karen is just an ancient religious legend in the world of ordinary people, so it's not easy to get the real information."
"Get ready, I'm going to meet her."
Otto said this calmly and without question.
The Erode Key deserves attention, but Yaezakura deserves even more attention.
Regardless of anything else, just because that was the person that Karin was thinking about, it was enough for Otto to put all his energy into dealing with it.
……
Walking in the cold wind of a winter night, all that is blown away and crushed are dreams~~
In fact, it is not winter, nor is it night, but it does not prevent Yaezakura from humming a song in her heart, because it is really too boring!
She knew that these processes were necessary, and she often reminded herself that Otto should be watching, and she must always pay the utmost attention!
However, this kind of life of wandering around slowly, without food and accommodation, and having to maintain a persona 24 hours a day is really boring! If you don't secretly find some fun in your heart, you can't bear it at all.
"Donkey spirit, donkey spirit, I have good news for you, Xiao Xuan is very lively!"
"I know, I'm watching you. Can you guys please stop calling me for no reason? If I get distracted, it will be a big problem!"
'This is about taking care of yourself, why are you unhappy?'
'Get lost!'
Yaesakura sighed sadly, thinking that she had been walking for several days and nights, so she simply found a bench on the street to sit down, hugged her sword, closed her eyes as usual, and took a nap.
"Ding~ding~ding~ding~"
I hadn't rested for long before I heard the clear sound of bells coming from a church in the distance.
Yaezakura opened her eyes and looked towards the gorgeous and magnificent church building under the morning sun.
She thought about it, stood up and walked towards the church.
Karen is the saint of the sect, so Yaesakura naturally has to focus on religious places and people. This is also part of consolidating her character, so she has to do it.
……
There aren't many people who come to Qidou Najue K early in the morning.
Perhaps it was because the town’s population was not large, but even in such a small town, the church was still built exquisitely and sacredly, which shows the absolute influence of the Mandate of Heaven in the whole of Europe.
Yaesakura visited a pious woman who was not as capable as Abonya but was strong enough to bear heavy responsibilities. She inquired about Karin's information as usual, but all she got were some vague myths and legends.
"Sure enough, I still got nothing. Karen, where should I go to find you..."
Yaesakura raised her head and looked up at the cross in front of her. A heartbreaking look of numbness appeared on her delicate and beautiful little face.
After a long while, she stuffed the coins she had accidentally "picked up" when passing by a gang crime scene last night into the donation box and turned to leave.
"Please stay, beautiful lady."
The soft and pleasant voice, with a hint of natural laziness and charm, blew into Yaesakura's ears like a warm breeze.
Yaesakura paused and looked blankly at the steep stool beside her.
But there was a heart-pounding woman sitting there, with her golden hair falling down, covering her beautiful collarbone that was barely visible. She was wearing a dignified and noble stout off-shoulder long dress that wrapped around her curvy and seductive figure.
She turned her head to look at Yaesakura, whose pretty face was as beautiful as that of a young lady from an aristocratic family, with a charming smile.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Mrs. Green Lily, that's what outsiders usually call me."
"Madam Green Lily...?"
Yaesakura murmured blankly, looking at her in confusion.
But then Mrs. Green Lily stood up and handed a business card to Yaezakura.
"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously. I've been watching you for a long time, and I've been listening to you asking the nun about Saint Karen. Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Lily Epsilon, a professor of history at Cambridge University, specializing in religious history. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Ah, um, hello."
Yaesakura took the business card but glanced over it, as if she didn't recognize the English words on it. She responded in a panic and gave an awkward, forced smile.
Lily's smile became even gentler, and she said:
"I was interested in your Far Eastern witch costume. I thought it might give me some new inspiration for my research, so I followed you into the church. From what we just said, are you interested in Saint Karen?"
"Karen...well, I want to go to her hometown, and also, her grave."
