To Raise a Soul

Yin Yan put on a good posture to teach his apprentices a lesson, and when he really started to do it, he couldn't bear to toss too much, so he didn't really follow Yu Zhen's practice for three days.

After only being decadent for one night, the two of them packed up, nestled on the sofa while eating, and analyzed the possible locations of the remaining dens of the "Sha" organization and the phantom array.

"The arrangement of the formations has its own set of rules. After one of the phantom formations has been cracked, based on the known information of the formations, it is possible to roughly analyze the possible positions of other phantom formations."

Yin Yan took out a book of formations and put it in front of Yu Zhen, turned to one of the pages and clicked. Seeing him looking over with his body bent, he didn't notice that the bowl containing the spiritual fruit in his hand was crooked, so he leaned over and held him down. forehead, pushing him back.

Yu Zhen passively sat upright, raised her eyes to look at him, with the fruit still wrapped in her mouth, and said vaguely, "What's wrong?"

Yin Yan got up, bent down and kissed the salad dressing off the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to straighten his bowl, and said, "It's about to be sprinkled."

Yu Zhen licked his lips reflexively, looked down at the straightened bowl in his hand, and then at Yin Yan's face of serious hooliganism, picked up a fork and bit a piece of spiritual fruit, raised his head and kissed Yin Yan.

Yin Yan took advantage of the situation and hugged him.

The two exchanged a kiss with the fragrance of spiritual fruit. No one ate the piece of fruit that Yu Zhen was biting. Yu Zhen cunningly threw it away when their lips were about to meet.

After the kiss was over, Yu Zhen breathed slowly, pushed Yin Yan away and straightened the messed up clothes, and said deliberately: "It's business, don't flirt, you are a master, so be careful."

Yin Yan used another kiss to stop his slightly complacent and arrogant "preaching".

After a commotion, Yu Zhen stopped eating fruit, sat back on the sofa, picked up the formation book, flipped through it, and asked, "You mean, the phantom formations created by 'Sha' are likely to be related to each other. If they are connected, can one deduce the location of the other?"

"If all the formations serve one person and are deployed by the same person, then the answer to this question is yes." Yin Yan cleaned up the fruit salad, sat beside him, and held his hand I clicked on a certain page in my formation book, and said: "Phantom formation is different from other formations, because the content is more changeable and uncontrollable than ordinary formations, so the formation method is very complicated and unique, forming a system of its own." The relatively large and high-level phantom formations are all evolved and combined from dozens of fixed basic phantom formation arrangements, and there is hardly any similarity."

Yu Zhen shifted his gaze to the page he clicked, and looked at the several basic phantom array arrangements above, and the countless variant arrays and combinations of arrays derived from the bottom, and felt that his eyes were going to be blind .

He is most afraid of this kind of permutation and combination of the same things, it is too much a test of memory and understanding.

He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, it was because the phantom array was too difficult to learn that he had his first "little temper" after apprenticeship. It was also the first time he lost his temper childishly after he became an adult. Although it was not obvious, he just held his breath. He punished himself for eating less, but Yin Yan quickly found out that something was wrong with him, and from that day on, he added more emphasis on refining weapons and missing formations in his lessons.

In retrospect, he later dared to disrespect his master and have the confidence to have thoughts about his master. In fact, he was favored by Yin Yan little by little and without a trace.

"What are you thinking?" His ears were suddenly tugged lightly.

He came back to his senses, met Yin Yan's calm and indulgent eyes at this time, couldn't help but snorted, deliberately rubbed against him again, and replied: "I was wondering when I would be able to eat the Babao Rabbit you made again. Man."

Obviously not telling the truth.

Yin Yan knocked him on the forehead, but didn't continue to ask. He wrapped his shoulders and let him lean in his arms. While flipping through the book of formations, he continued to explain: "Everyone has different habits of forming formations. Once you form your own It is very difficult to change the style of the magic formation, especially the magic formation. Now that the cultivation world is declining, there is no inheritance of formations, and there are very few people who know the magic formation. Under such environmental conditions, the "sha" organization Even if there are people who can create magic formations, there will definitely not be more than three."

Yu Zhen frowned when he thought of Feng Lao and his party who were basically half-blind in their formation.

As far as he knew, the only one in Feng Lao's side who had studied the formation was Master Yuan Hui, but it was difficult for Master Yuan Hui to go out because he had to stay at the villa.Comparing with Feng Lao's lack of formation talents and extremely difficult to get out of the mountain, Xiexiu's conservatively estimated three formation talents are already a lot.

Seeing his worry, Yin Yan stroked his hair, and added: "This is an estimation method that focuses on the enemy's strength as much as possible. The actual number should not be so many, and even if there are many people who can form formations, they must be A combination of one main and multiple pairs, one strong and one weak, will not be a combination of several very strong people."

Yu Zhen was a little relieved when he heard the words, remembering that Yin Yan was still with him, he relaxed again, and asked expectantly, "So? What are you going to do?"

"I'm lazy and don't use my own brain." Yin Yan reprimanded, and replied: "The formations created by the same formation master will have many similarities. After one of them is cracked, you can easily Based on these similarities, we can calculate the possible positions of other formations and the key to breaking the formation. Even if there are multiple formation talents in the 'sha', after destroying all the formations set by one of them, we can continue to set up formations based on this person. The position of the formation, and calculate the possible location of the formation formed by others. As long as you catch the thread, you don’t have to worry about finding out all of them. What we need to do next is to analyze the phantom formation that was broken before, and calculate other phantom formations possible location."

With such a clear explanation, Yu Zhen would be an idiot if he didn't understand. He looked at Yin Yan, silently let go of the formation book, and smiled flatteringly at Yin Yan.

Yin Yan's eyes moved, and he looked at him quietly, without speaking.

"Well... time is precious. If, as you said, there is a connection between the various formations, and the power absorbed by the formations will be supplied to the formation, then the formation must have discovered that we have broken one of his formations." It's too late, there are many nights and dreams, we'd better make a quick decision, so... Thank you for your hard work!"

After Yu Zhen finished speaking with little confidence, she leaned over and kissed him on the face, then got out of his arms and picked up the bowl that was put aside, and said, "You are busy, I will make you something to eat, and by the way This bowl is washed, come on!"

After speaking, he rubbed the soles of his feet with oil and ran away, as if he was afraid that Yin Yan would drag him back to study the formation together.

Yin Yan watched him leave, raised his hand to touch the place where he was kissed on his face, closed the book of formations, after a long time, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and opened the book of formations again.

"I'm getting lazy."

Sure enough, it should be taught well.

Before Yu Zhen finished his love lunch, Yin Yan had already analyzed the results.

The two finished their lunch as quickly as possible, adjusted the course of the flying magic weapon, and flew towards the first calculated associated phantom array.

An hour later, the flying magic weapon stopped above a remote valley. There were a few not too prosperous towns scattered around the valley, which were somewhat similar to the living conditions of the residents around the first phantom array.

"For the same irreversible formation, you need to kill the eye first." Yin Yan said, turning his head to look at Yu Zhen.

Yu Zhen, who took a little lunch break, has recovered his energy. He took out the mahogany sword and waved it, and said, "Leave me to kill the evil cultivators. This is my experience. You are not allowed to interfere."

Yin Yan pursed his lips and raised his hand to stroke his head.

With the illusion array as the center point, the two quickly found five hidden evil cultivator dens around them.

Yu Zhen's mind has grown a lot after the experience of breaking the formation. This time, the process of breaking through the den is more efficient and efficient. He doesn't even need Yin Yan's assistance at the side anymore. He only needs his two ghost servants to attack the formation. .

Three hours later, all five dens were destroyed, and they arrested the evil cultivators of a pagoda, and they were going to interrogate them when they had time.

Afterwards, the two of them came to the phantom formation without stopping. Yin Yan was also guarding the outside, and Yu Zhen entered the formation alone to break through the formation, but this time Yu Zhen had an extra helper—the nothingness that could be used as eyes for Yin Yan.

This time, without Feng Lao and others restraining his hands and feet, Yu Zhen became more unscrupulous, breaking the illusions one by one, and quickly found the key to the formation under Yin Yan's outfield guidance, and directly broke the formation from the inside.

After everything was done, it was already dinner time. The two of them changed their appearance and found a special restaurant in a nearby town to have dinner. After the meal, they still strolled around. It doesn't seem like they are here for experience, but rather for tourism.

"The scenery here is nice." On the way back to the flying magic weapon, Yu Zhen stretched comfortably and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Yin Yan covered him with aura, helped him slowly recover the aura spent in the afternoon's battle, and said, "If you like it, we can come back when we are on our honeymoon."

Honeymoon?

Yu Zhen's heart moved, and she turned her head to look at his still calm side face, couldn't help showing an overly bright smile, nodded vigorously, and replied: "Okay, we will come back during our honeymoon!"

After a brief relaxation, the two gave up the night's rest and continued towards the next location associated with the phantom array.

One formation after another, one den after another, Yu Zhen's decisive and capable side became more and more obvious, and the aura around him became more harmonious.

His two ghost servants are also growing rapidly, and their merits are constantly accumulating, almost catching up with Yu Zhen when he first entered the Tao.

"It's a pity that Magu is not here." Yu Zhen walked out of the sixth broken illusion formation, took San'er and Xin Xiaoxiao back to the small red pagoda, and said regretfully: "If we had known, we should have gone to pick up Magu first, It's hard for her to help us keep an eye on the puppets and cover up our whereabouts."

Yin Yan put his arms around his waist, took him directly into the flying magic weapon, and comforted her: "I will have a chance to train her in the future. If it doesn't work, I can let her practice in the void tower."

Inside the Void Tower?It's a familiar routine.

Yu Zhen squinted at him, remembering the experience of being cheated in her previous life, she couldn't help poking him hard with a mahogany sword, and vented her anger in her previous life a little.

Yin Yan also thought of his previous life, held the tip of the sword for reason, and said, "I'll make you a bunny with eight treasures tonight."

"...That's more or less the same." Yu Zhen put away the sword and felt relieved.

After filling their stomachs at night, the two sat at the small table and analyzed a few densely drawn array diagrams.

At this time, five days have passed in the eight days, excluding the first day of the two people's decadence, in the remaining four days, they destroyed a total of six phantom formations and destroyed 32 dens.

"The number of dens and phantom formations are more than we expected." Yu Zhen frowned, feeling that this was not a good signal.

At the beginning, they got information from Xiexiu that there were dozens of dens like underground bars in small towns, but now they have destroyed more than 30 dens, and there seem to be dozens more waiting for them .

Does "sha" absorb all the evil cultivators abroad?But even if all the evil cultivators are absorbed together, will there be too many evil cultivators?

Yin Yan calculated the distance and azimuth relationship between the broken formations, and said: "There are at most two phantom formations with the same layout. The information we collected at the beginning is no problem."

That is, they have almost destroyed all the dens of the "Sha" organization?

Yu Zhen felt a sense of unreality, and said: "The evil cultivators we have met these days are very weak, even if they are only slightly stronger than ordinary evil cultivators, or they have some more powerful magic weapons in their hands, such a group The evil cultivator who can be called a rabble, why do I feel... something is wrong?"

It's strange that the evil cultivator who can create such a powerful illusion array can only have such a group of subordinates who are so easy to deal with.

"These evil cultivators have been abandoned from the beginning. Don't forget, they are all evil cultivators who have joined the 'sha' in the past 20 years. They are the eyes of the formation of the illusion. To be cruel, they are just tools for the formation of the formation. That's all, none of them is a core member or veteran member of 'Sha', and they know very little about 'Sha'."

Yin Yan reminded, glanced at the orientation maps of each phantom formation, thought for a few seconds, and said: "We should destroy only the outermost members of 'Sha' now. These phantom formations have been established for a long time, and 'Sha' wants to pass The purpose of the phantom formation may have been achieved, or almost achieved, so these phantom formations and peripheral members are not too important to them."

"That is to say, by cleaning up these dens, we may have helped 'Sha' by helping them dispose of the waste that has been used?" Yu Zhen asked back, frowning tightly, with an ugly expression as if eating flies.

Helping the enemy clean up the mess is not a job that makes people feel happy.

Yin Yan stretched out his hand to press his brows away, and said: "We solved the phantom formations and dens in order to prevent more people from being victimized, and not to go into a dead end. And even though this is speculated, we can still get a lot of information from these phantom formations, yes The follow-up investigation will be beneficial. The forced destruction of these phantom formations will also cause a lot of backlash damage to those who set up the formations."

Hearing what he said, Yu Zhen finally looked a little better, pulled his hand and said, "Then let's quickly clean up the rest of the phantom array, there will be one less evil cultivator, and I hope to suffer from this wave of backlash. 'Sha' can temporarily stop for a while, to buy some time for Lao Feng's investigation."

Yin Yan nodded and held his hand instead.

Another day passed in a blink of an eye, and the last two phantom formations that could be calculated and the surrounding dens were all eliminated.

When solving the last phantom formation, Yin Yan made a new discovery.

"There are traces of the formation being changed, which reduces the backlash damage." Yin Yan pointed to a place where Yu Zhen couldn't see the difference at all, looked around, and the breath on his body suddenly became cheerful, and said: "The change of the formation can reveal the depth of the people who set up the formation better than the arrangement of the formation. The fox showed its tail."

Yu Zhen looked at him silently, implicitly expressing her incomprehension and doubts.

"You have to pick up your formation learning." Yin Yan took his hand, turned around and led him towards the flying magic weapon, without helping him to solve his doubts.

Yu Zhen thought of the formation book that was comparable to the heavenly book, and his eyes went dark, he didn't dare to doubt, he only felt that the future was bleak.

In the last two days of the ten-day holiday, the two returned to meet Magu, took away the puppets, spent a day collecting some more precious flower seeds, and spent a day buying gifts for their families, and then boarded the return plane on time .

During these ten days, Qiu Feiqian had already hired a team to complete most of the pre-wedding preparations. She only needed to wait until the Chinese New Year wave was over before she could concentrate on arranging the nursery and making the final preparations for the wedding.

As soon as Yu Zhen and Yin Yan returned to City B, they were pulled by Qiu Feiqian to try on dresses, and then they were stuffed with a bunch of brochures, some for wedding photographers, some for wedding rings, some for wedding cakes, and even There are several sets of layout plans for the nursery for them to choose from.

So busy that after dinner at night, she just wanted to lie on the sofa and pretend to be dead. The life started again, and Yu Zhen became jealous of Yin Yan again.

They are also monks, and they are busy with the same things. Even Yin Yan took care of the arrangement of the nursery, but Yin Yan seemed very relaxed, and every night he had time to devote himself to calculations with the book of formations. Don't know what counting.

But being busy has its benefits, at least Yu Zhen doesn't have to learn formations for the time being.

In a blink of an eye, another half month passed, and after a heavy snowfall, January of the new year came.

"It's so early this year, it's at the end of January, and it feels like time flies." Yu Zhen lay on the back of the sofa, looking at the bright night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and the snowflakes that couldn't be seen clearly, and suddenly felt like time was rushing. The feeling of running water.

At this time last year, he was just a poor boy who had just arrived in City B. He lived in fear every day just to survive. A ghost can scare half his life, even if he is timid.

But now... through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he looked at the person who came out of the kitchen with a bowl of lotus seed soup, with his head tilted on his arm, squinting his eyes and smiling happily.

Now, he is no longer afraid of death, nor is he timid, and is as happy as a pig in captivity every day.

"I'm thinking about something, I'm laughing so much that my saliva is about to come out." Yin Yan walked behind him, but didn't notice that he was peeking at his behavior through the floor-to-ceiling windows, thinking that he was watching the snow, bent down and hugged him from the sofa Come over, stuff the lotus seed soup into his hand, and say, "Eat it, your cultivation base is showing signs of improvement again, you should pay attention to the replenishment of spiritual energy recently, and stabilize the last bit of evil spirit in the dantian."

"Understood." Yu Zhen nodded obediently, raised her head and kissed him on the cheek in a good mood, and ate the lotus seed soup happily.

Yin Yan squeezed his fat face, sat next to him, and took out the book of formations and a stack of pens and papers to calculate.

Yu Zhen glanced at it again and again, and finally couldn't hold back any longer, and asked, "Yin Yan, you look through the formation books every day, are you trying to prepare teaching materials for me..."

Yin Yan stopped writing, turned his head to look at him, and asked back: "This is why you hold back until now to ask, afraid that I will let you learn formation?"

"...No." Yu Zhen buried her head in her food, pretending that she hadn't spoken just now.

Yin Yan didn't expose his obviously guilty answer, turned his head and continued to calculate on the paper, and drew a lot of completely incomprehensible formation patterns in a short while.

While eating, Yu Zhen peeked, looked at, and suddenly felt that the formation that Yin Yan drew last looked familiar. It was very similar to the phantom formation of evil cultivators they broke before, and asked in surprise: "Are you restoring the evil formation?" The phantom formation?"

"Finally, I didn't lose all the most basic things." After finishing the last stroke, Yin Yan picked up the final drafted formation, and explained: "No, I am reversely restoring the phantom formation of the evil cultivator."

Reverse reduction?Is the most difficult formation mentioned in the formation book completely copied and reversed?Push those phantom formations that have been changed and arranged many times?

Yu Zhen gasped, looking at the formation in Yin Yan's hand that looked exactly like the magic formation created by Xiexiu, and deeply realized the gap in IQ between himself and Yin Yan.

It is said in the book of formations that the most perfect reverse reverse formation is the one that looks like the original formation!Now the one in Yin Yan's hand is exactly the same as Xiexiu's phantom array, anyway, in his opinion, there is no difference at all!

IQ crushing, completely.

The most powerful thing about this reverse formation is that as long as there are eyes of the original formation and the reverse formation is successfully arranged, the formation can be perfectly copied and the formation can be reversed, thus killing the person who set up the formation. in the invisible.

Yu Zhen thought of Yin Yan's wobbly-headed souls that he had kept specially for them, and finally figured out what Yin Yan was busy with these days, and also wanted to figure out what Yin Yan said when he broke the last phantom formation. What does it mean that the fox finally showed its tail".

It turned out that after returning from abroad, Yin Yan had been thinking about how to kill the person who set up the magic formation!

Yu Zhen didn't eat lotus seed soup anymore, he wanted to eat Yin Yan more now.

Sensing the emotional fluctuations in his heart, Yin Yan tilted his head, stretched out his hand to hold his chin and closed his long mouth, and said, "Don't look at me like that, it's dangerous."

Yu Zhen put down the bowl and rushed towards him.

Danger is danger, whoever is afraid of whom!
