Master's Ultimate Master

No sleep for one night.

The next day, the sky was bright, Xuan Yi was full of thoughts, and he couldn't sleep, he couldn't wait to ask Fan Du for clarification.But reason stopped him.

When going out, I happened to see Huan Zhen running into the courtyard in a hurry, with "big things happening" written on his face. Before Xuan Yi could walk down the steps, he rushed over like a strong wind, and he didn't have time to slow down. Uncle, something has happened!"

Xuan Yi looked calm, and said lightly: "What's the matter?"

Huan Zhen gasped and said, "I heard that a thief came last night, intending to steal the body of the former head of the Confucian School. Fortunately, the people of the Confucian School discovered it in time, so the thief did not succeed. Master Mingguang helped the new head of the Confucian School last night. I spent the night salvaging people in the lake, but unfortunately, nothing was found. Fortunately, the body is still there."

Seeing that Xuan Yi's face was calm, without the slightest ups and downs, he wondered: "Little uncle, after listening to me, why don't you feel anything at all?"

Xuan Yi cooperated: "Huh?"

Seeing this, the corners of Huan Zhen's mouth twitched: "It's too perfunctory. Did the little uncle already know?"

Xuan Yi thought to himself: "Not only do I know, the thief Shi Lingyu and others are looking for is him."

He shook his head: "I didn't listen to what you said. I don't know what is the use of that thief stealing the corpse? Could it be that the funeral objects of the corpse are rich?"

Huan Zhen said: "No one was caught, and no one knew his purpose. But the thief was quite courageous, he dared to steal from the Confucian school, and he was able to escape unscathed, which shows that his cultivation must not be weak. Like People like this usually don’t come here simply for money. It must be something special about the body of the head of the Confucianism.”

Xuan Yi praised: "Your reasoning is very logical."

Huan Zhen rubbed the back of his head and said embarrassedly: "Little Master Uncle is wrong. Master always said that I am not very smart, especially in sword practice. I am as stubborn as a cow, and I can't get back on track. For this reason, Master has scolded me a lot. Now listening to my little uncle, it is like rain and dew, and I have regained some confidence."

Xuan Yi listened absent-mindedly, and when he finished speaking, he immediately asked, "When shall we return to the Taoist sect?"

He is not interested in anything now, he just wants to return to Taoism immediately.

Huan Zhen said: "The master asked the disciples to see if the little uncle has woken up. If he wakes up, he will leave the island immediately."

Xuan Yi: "Your master? Then Fan, where is my master?"

Huan Zhen: "Did the little uncle say that Impermanence Lord? He left beforehand last night and told the master to lead all the disciples back to Jingye Peak today."

Hearing this, Xuan Yi was stunned: "What did you say? My master left last night? Where did he go?"

Huan Zhen didn't know why he was so excited all of a sudden, he felt inexplicable, but he still nodded: "I heard from my master. As for Wuchang Jun's whereabouts, I don't know. Wuchang Jun Su likes to come and go alone, and my junior uncle doesn't know. I don't know either."

He paused, and continued: "Actually, since the Slaughter Valley incident, Mr. Wuchang has always disappeared for a few days for no reason. My disciple dared to guess that he might be Qingwei Jun who went to Slaughter Valley to pay his respects and die. After all, the two were once Brother-teacher relationship. There are rumors outside that Lord Wuchang and Lord Qingwei have severed their friendship, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lord Wuchang still cares about Lord Qingwei very much. Otherwise, he would have been removed from the Taoist ancestors stone tablet long ago."

Xuan Yi put his eyes on the ground, not knowing what he was looking at, he murmured: "This is just your own speculation. Back then..."

Fandu stopped him cruelly, and he will never forget this matter.

Huan Zhen said that it was normal for Fandu to disappear, but Xuan Yi felt that the other party was deliberately avoiding him.Is it because he is afraid of being asked something?Or did she not intend to tell him the truth at all?

Fandu hides his emotions very deeply, and Xuan Yi doesn't have a good relationship with him. It can't be said that he understands him well, and he has no way to penetrate his deep thoughts.Only the other party told him personally, otherwise he would not be able to ask anything.

After what happened last night, the Confucian sect was busy looking for the thief. When Yin Qiu bid farewell instead of Fandu, Shi Lingyu didn't make much effort to keep him, and didn't even ask him why Fandu left without saying goodbye.

After the disciples of the Taoist sect left, Jiang Lingyu also led the disciples of the Tianji sect to leave the vast expanse of mist.

After returning to Jingye Peak, Xuan Yi began to wait, and the time suddenly became very long. Several days passed, and Fandu never came back.

Confirming his own thoughts, Fandu was really hiding from him.Therefore, Xuan Yi's desire to know the truth is even more urgent.

Five days later, Fandu did not come back, but something happened at the foot of the mountain.

Sitting and waiting, feeling like sitting on pins and needles, is really uncomfortable.Xuan Yi was irritable, so he liked to go to the martial arts arena, catch one or two who were not bad, and use them to vent his anger.

At present, his spiritual power is not what it used to be, even if he tried his best to suppress it, he would occasionally go berserk.At the Tianjimen martial arts competition, many Taoist disciples witnessed with their own eyes that Lian Yuan was kicked terribly by that disciple of Tianjimen. His cultivation level cannot be described as weak.

Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, it has advanced by leaps and bounds to this point, which is really frightening.The disciples of the Taoist sect all speculated that this little uncle had obtained some panacea to improve his cultivation, and even boldly guessed, did Mr. Wuchang send him a lot of spiritual power?

Mr. Wuchang's concern for his disciples is well known, such a conjecture is reasonable, and everyone suddenly realized that they were envious and jealous.It's a good fortune to have such a good life as a junior uncle, so he can be favored by Mr. Wuchang.

Some disciples couldn't help muttering: "What kind of fate? That's not because of the cheeky stalking. Who would have thought that behind Wuchangjun's face of Hades, there is infinite tenderness and warmth hidden. If I had known this... "I can't go on talking later, and I dare not say it again.

If I had known this, I should have had a thick skin and stalked Mr. Wuchang.Of course, almost all Taoist disciples did not dare to do this.If you look at the entire cultivation world, you probably won't find many such people.Lianyuan is an exception.

Xuan Yi was completely unaware of these Taoist disciples' thoughts.

This day, he just walked into the martial arts arena, and the disciples who were fighting in full swing, when they saw him, they suddenly stopped moving as if they were slapped on the acupoints by the palm of a peerless master.One by one, they were stuck in place like wooden stakes.

Xuan Yinahan: "What's wrong with everyone? It's like being possessed by a demon."

I don't know who said in a low voice: "Oh, I almost forgot, I will clean the library today. Brothers, I'm sorry, I'm leaving first."

Someone started, and the people behind were busy, and all of a sudden they scattered like birds and beasts.But for a moment, only Xuan Yi was left alone in the entire martial arts arena.

He froze for a moment, then reflected on himself, did he go too far recently?

Before he came to a conclusion, he saw Huan Zhen with a sword passing by him in a hurry.

Xuan Yi stepped in front of him, but Huan Zhen didn't notice someone in front of him because he was walking too fast, and when he found out, he almost bumped into him.Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stopped in time.

"Sorry little uncle, the disciple didn't see you."

Xuan Yi asked: "Run in such a hurry, what happened?"

Huan Zhen said: "Don't you know, little uncle? Recently, there have been frequent incidents of missing girls in several cities below the mountain. The officials who guarded the city sent countless people to search everywhere. Not to mention the living ones, there were no dead bodies. I think this is unusual. Most likely It was an evil thing at work, so I sent people to the Taoist sect for help."

In the four realms, only Taoism is rooted in the mortal world, which is closer to the world of mortals. Ordinary people are usually persecuted by evil spirits and crooked ways, and Taoism helps to solve them.Therefore, Daomen has a great reputation in the world.Once people encounter bizarre events, they will turn to Taoism for help.No matter how big or small it is, the Daoist sect never refuses anyone who comes.

Are there girls missing?Xuan Yi had never heard of it.

He hurriedly asked, "Do you know the exact time when the girl started disappearing?"

Huan Zhen said: "Probably in the two days after we came back."

Xuan Yi: "How many people are missing in total?"

Huan Zhen thought for a while, and said: "Several seekers come from three different cities. There are girls missing in the cities, and there are quite a few of them. There are nearly 200 people in the three cities together."

Xuan Yi frowned, 200 people, not a small number.

"Are you sure that the missing persons are all young girls?"

Huan Zhen nodded: "Sure. The common people who reported to the officials all claimed that their daughters were missing, so it can be seen that all the missing girls are young girls."

Xuan Yi fell into deep thought, and after a while, he raised his head and asked, "Are you planning to go down the mountain with your master?"

Seeing Huan Zhen nodded, he said, "I'll go with you."

In the three cities where the accident occurred, the Taoist sect sent disciples to investigate.Xuan Yi followed Yin Qiu and the others to the city with the most missing people, the City of Double Flowers.

This city is far away from Jingye Peak. The city has a large area and a vast territory, which can be regarded as prosperous.

Everyone flew with their swords, and when they landed, they saw the city lord shouting and embracing, and had been waiting in front of the city gate for a long time.The city lord takes Hua as his surname, and his single name is Yan. He is about 30 years old and is well maintained. His shoulders are wide and his waist is thin. It seems that he does not lack exercise.

Seeing the master descending from the sky, the city lord almost wept with joy, hurried forward to greet him, cupped his hands and saluted, saying: "All the immortals came to help you from afar, the whole city is grateful."

After he finished his nonsense, Yin Qiu got straight to the point and said, "Can you ask the city lord to bring all the family members of the victims?"

The city lord quickly agreed and said: "Okay, I will send someone to look for it here."

Not long after, a huge group of people gathered.Xuan Yi followed all the Taoist disciples to inquire carefully, and soon he came to a conclusion.

The missing girls are mostly around the age of fifteen or sixteen, which is exactly the age of flowers.All girls have one thing in common, that is, beauty!

Xuan Yi was thinking about it when he heard Huan Zhen's voice: "So I met a pervert. These girls are really miserable."

Xuan Yi asked casually, "How did you see that?"

Huan Zhen seemed very confident, and said in an orderly manner: "Little uncle, can't you see this? First, the missing persons are all female; second, they are not very old; and, without exception, they are all beautiful. All indications indicate that those who kidnapped these girls were either flower-pickers in the rivers and lakes, or demons obsessed with sex."

Xuan Yi said: "What you said is not unreasonable. But you can't draw conclusions too early. Contact the people who asked for help in the previous two cities to describe the crimes in the three cities. It should be the same person. If it is an ordinary flower picker, it is difficult In a short period of time, so many girls were kidnapped at the same time. Because the number is too large, it is impossible to be silent, and it is not easy to hide. Even if they are murdered, it is basically impossible to destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces, and there is not enough time."

Huan Zhen said: "Then it must have been done by evil spirits."

Xuan Yi: "That's what I said, but I think its purpose is not just as simple as lust."

Falling into the hands of evil things can be described as more ominous than good.

Yin Qiudao: "Junior brother Lian is right. For the present plan, we must obtain clues as soon as possible to find the missing girl."

At this time, the family members of the victims fell to their knees and kowtowed.

"My gods and immortals, I beg you to find my daughter!!"

"The villain is just such a daughter. If there is something wrong, how can we husband and wife live?"

"My daughter is timid and afraid of the dark. How many nights have passed, and no one has found her yet. My daughter must have been terrified. Daughter, it's dad who is sorry for you and failed to protect you."

...........................

Everyone was crying while talking, the crying was intermittent at first, and then the more they talked, the more sad they became, and they began to scream.

After questioning everyone, there are only a few useful clues.The times and places where the girls disappeared are different, and there is nothing particularly noteworthy.

The mysterious man had clean hands and feet, leaving almost nothing behind.Even if Xuan Yi and the others were really Da Luo gods, they couldn't think of a way to find someone for a while.

Xuan Yi wandered back and forth, and suddenly said: "The city lord, please gather all the remaining good-looking girls in the city together."

Since there is no way to go out to find it, then simply sit on the sidelines and wait for the rabbit to catch the turtle in the urn.He felt that the mysterious man might come again, as long as there were beauties in the city.

What they have to do is to lay down a net of heaven and earth before the mysterious man arrives, and wait for work at ease.Before that, it is absolutely impossible to startle the snake.

Xuan Yi asked the city lord to gather the beauties together, just to find out where they lived, so that they could send Taoist disciples to guard their homes secretly.

The City Manager was very efficient, and quickly brought all the surviving beauties according to what he said, and there were quite a few of them.

Yin Qiu seemed to understand his intentions, and told Huan Zhen and the others: "Each of you choose a girl, and before the mysterious person shows up, you have to protect them secretly."

Huan Zhen said: "Master, we are not enough."

This time Yin Qiu didn't bring many people here, and the total number was less than half of the girls, which was indeed not enough.

Xuan Yi reminded: "There are not enough people, just draw symbols and let the puppet help."

People in the Taoist sect are good at drawing talismans, and the puppet technique is the simplest technique.As the name suggests, draw a human figure on paper, send spiritual power to it, and use illusion to transform it into a reality, acting as a puppet.This kind of puppet is like a puppet. The lines that control its body movements are completely in your hands. Of course, you can do whatever you want it to do.

Huan Zhen said in admiration: "Young Master Uncle's reaction is really fast. You can think of all of this. This disciple can be said to have all the respect for you."

Yin Qiu glanced at him: "Forget the nonsense first. Let's go our own way. Once we find the mysterious person's whereabouts, we will immediately notify each other by burning amulets."

The so-called burning talisman is to burn the drawn paper talisman with spiritual power. When the paper talisman is completely reduced to ashes, the last flame will appear in front of the person notified, and sometimes words will appear in the flame.It is one of the methods used by Taoist disciples to deliver messages.
