Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Hei Xiazi glanced cautiously at Xie Yuchen, and seeing that the man's expression was normal, he reached out and took the box to play with it. "Should we bring the other two over to build rapport first?"

“No need,” Zhang Qiling refused. “I won’t believe it.”

Xie Yuchen nodded. "This matter is too unbelievable. If it weren't for Master Ali's prior arrangements, who among us would believe it?"

“That’s true. If it weren’t for the blind man waking up this little Ali himself, and our master being so generous, giving away so many good things, even the blind man wouldn’t believe it.” As he spoke, the blind man ruffled Su Li’s hair again.

Su Li really wanted to grin and give the bear another bite.

Xie Yuchen pointed to the box with the character "fat". "Wu Xie and I are both third-generation members of the Nine Gates, so we have some relationship. This person currently has no connection with any of us, so it would be too far-fetched to make friends with him rashly, and it would easily attract attention."

Zhang Qiling pointed to the last line, 'Seven Star Lu Palace'. "Wait."

"There are still six months left. Can Ali's body hold up?" Hei Xiazi asked worriedly, thinking about why Su Li had been sent here.

"Yes, my master gave me two Nine-Turn Soul Nourishing Pills, which should last me for two or three years."

"Once the story begins, I'll just follow the route in the book, and then I can repair my soul!" Master's arrangements are perfect.

Finally, the group decided to wait until the plot began and they made contact before discussing anything else.

After finishing their business, Xie Yuchen was about to send the others away to start processing documents when Su Li slammed a blueprint in front of him.

"What is this?" Xie Yuchen asked, puzzled.

"The map of your house that I got yesterday," Su Li said, pointing to the ground.

"Huahua, your house is quite dangerous!" This is what most people would say.

Xie Yuchen frowned and opened the blueprints, discovering that the structure was indeed a floor plan of the entire old house.

Unlike a regular map, this map is covered with various red dots, some sparse and some dense, and the closer to the main courtyard, the denser the red dots become.

"This map is called the Hazardous Substance Distribution Map. All of these things marked on it are harmful to the human body."

Black Bear curiously took it and looked at it. "Wow! Flower Master's life is still as miserable as ever!"

Xie Yuchen wasn't surprised by any of this. Ever since he took over the family at the age of eight, countless people had wanted him dead, and these despicable methods had never stopped.

But he survived, gained a foothold, and seized real power.

Those good-for-nothings who wanted him dead either lost their lives or were stripped of their power by him. Now, apart from resorting to these underhanded tactics behind his back, they dare not easily cause trouble in front of him.

"It's alright, I'll have Uncle Wen handle it. Thank you, Ali." Xie Yuchen patted Su Li's head and smiled.

"I'm afraid that as soon as this batch is cleared out, the next batch will be added," Black Bear complained from the side.

Su Li raised a confident smile. "I have a way."

Now, Xie Yuchen was even more interested than when he first received the illustrated guide. "What method?"

"Set up the formation!"

"Setting up a formation? Little Ali has that skill too?"

Speaking of this, Su Li Ke became proud and slightly raised her chin.

"I am not very talented, but I am currently ranked first among array masters on the list of geniuses in the cultivation world."

"Wow, that's amazing!!!" Black Bear was particularly supportive, never expecting this usually a bit dull kid to be so confident and boastful when talking about his area of ​​expertise.

"Then we'll have to rely on our little Ali. I'll have someone prepare whatever she needs," Xie Yuchen said, expressing his support.

Zhang Qiling nodded. "I'll help."

Su Li flipped her hand and pulled out a handful of array flags and a box of jade. "No need, my senior brothers and sisters have prepared all the array-setting materials for me in bulk."

She pointed to the blueprints spread out on the table. "Huahua, how big do you need? Do you want to fence off the entire house?"

Xie Yuchen thought for a moment and shook his head. "No need. These two courtyards we live in are enough. Just leave the rest of the place as it is. There are quite a few people watching the Xie family. The fewer people who know about your abilities, the better."

Su Li thought for a moment and indicated that she understood.

Next, it's Zurich's turn to play.

Su Li had long suffered from this spiritually barren environment, and with the support of her master, she immediately took action.

Holding the jade compass, he briefly surveyed the two courtyards and had already devised the best formation plan in his mind. He then began directing Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling to dig pits everywhere. As for Xie Dangjia, the brainy worker, he should just use his brain.

There's no way around it; if you don't have enough magic power, you can make up for it with physical strength. Besides, right now it's not that you don't have enough, it's that you don't have any at all.

But it doesn't matter. Once the formation is set up, he can start to recover some of his strength. At least he won't have to dig holes everywhere to set up a formation anymore.

After the two laborers finished digging the pit that Su Li needed, Su Li also carved array patterns on all the jade stones he needed and completed the preparations.

Su Li initially constructed the outermost trapping array, enclosing both courtyards within it.

This trapping formation was modified by Su Li based on the "回" (hui) formation. It was too troublesome for people to remember the entry and exit routes, and the people here were not like those in the cultivation world, who, regardless of their abilities, knew at least a little bit.

They simply removed the entrances and exits, so it didn't matter which direction you entered from, and their main strategy was to launch an indiscriminate attack with no exits.

Then add the array patterns used by the sect to record the disciples' auras and create life tablets.

When the formation is activated, as long as his aura has not been recorded at the formation's core and he has not obtained the temporary token, he will ensure that any malicious individuals who come will be trapped.

If no one comes to take them out, they can be left to wander around in circles until they die.

Anyone who dares to have any more frivolous ideas will die!

After filling the key points of the trapping formation with jade stones and planting the formation flags, Su Li returned to the courtyard to begin constructing the next formation.

Spirit Gathering Array!

However, there is very little spiritual energy to gather in this plane; it would be more accurate to call it "locking spirits" than "gathering spirits."

With a simple modification, the outer convergence can be changed to an inner lock, as long as the spiritual energy within the array's range is kept flowing without leaking out.

Fill the corresponding array pattern jade stones into the array eyes of the two courtyards, and the array flags are in place.

Now we can begin activating the formation!

Xie Yuchen, who had been forced to sit in the study reviewing documents, was dragged out by Hei Xiazi to watch.

A young man with delicate features stood alone in the courtyard, his eyes revealing composure and confidence. He quickly formed hand seals, his hair flying, and the surrounding air seemed to come alive with his movements.

There seemed to be some invisible energy flowing around, and a thin layer of mist rose up around the perimeter, which quickly dissipated just as it was about to completely envelop the two courtyards.

Then, the array flags that had just been planted on the array's core suddenly vanished, turning into a wisp of green smoke.

The surroundings seemed unchanged, but the three onlookers clearly sensed that something was different.

Su Li looked at the array in front of her with satisfaction, the connection was smooth. Very good, the skill has not been lost. Next, the last step.

With a slight turn of his right hand, the dragon-patterned bracelet on his wrist had somehow slipped off and transformed into a jade-colored dragon-patterned whip, held in his palm amidst the flowing light.

With a slight flick of her wrist, the long whip grew larger in the wind, and a faint dragon's roar rang in everyone's ears. The whip actually came to life, transforming into a jade-colored dragon less than three meters long, which circled and danced around Su Li, appearing very lively and happy.

Only when Su Li raised her hand to give instructions again did she reluctantly leave Su Li's side.

It quickly flew towards the array's core locations in the courtyard, then swiftly returned to Su Li's side, hovered for a moment, let out a soft hum, and with a flash of light, returned to Su Li's wrist, transforming into the dragon-patterned bracelet.
