Disguised as the devil of the system

After discussing with Cheng Song, Xuan Shuzhi finally confirmed several places where there were traces of black snakes and planned to go to investigate in person.

"These three places are very close, and they are not far from Xuanling Pavilion. You can take a look at them together." Xuan Shuzhi didn't forget what Hua Shi said just now, and then said, "Hua Shi, you are with me."

Hua Shi nodded quickly, and looked at other places on the map. This map was reflected by a magic weapon, and it was the same as the painting projected on the wall by Xuanshu Zhiling Pavilion. You could even see the undulating mountains and mountains on the map clearly. The meandering river, and on the map, the location marked with a flashing red light is the place where they investigated the abnormality.

There are dozens of places on the map.

"How many black snakes are there?" Hua Shi was startled, "Isn't this number too scary?"

Xuan Shuzhi lowered his eyelashes, and his face was not as calm as before, he just said: "Things will only be worse than you imagined, are you afraid? If you are afraid, you don't have to go."

Apart from deliberately teasing Hua Shi, what he said also had some other intentions. For some reason, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart, and even hoped that Fang Wei would not have to go.

Listening to Xuan Shuzhi's words, Hua Shi recalled the black snake he had seen in Yuanhu before, and thought of its terrifying destructive ability, his heart skipped a beat. If every black snake had that ability, It's impossible not to be afraid, but since Liu Qishuang wanted him to go, there must be a reason for him to go, Hua Shi made up his mind, shook his head and responded to Xuan Shuzhi: "I'm not afraid, I'm going."

Sure enough, there is no way.

Xuan Shuzhi didn't know whether Hua Shi's insistence was the result of Fang Wei's conversation with him or Hua Shi's initiative, but now it seems that there is no way to change it.

He nodded and said, "Okay, pack up and we'll go this afternoon."

Hua Shi quickly responded, but he was curious again: "But there are so many places on this map, can we really see the clues if we only look at three of them?"

Xuan Shuzhi raised his eyes and said, "Who said we only looked at three places?"

Hua Shi blinked: "After seeing these places, do we want to go to other places?"

Xuan Shuzhi knocked on Hua Shi's head with the handle of his fan, Hua Shi covered his head and was about to ask, only to hear Liu Qishuang say in his mind: "Lingdao still has a lot of people, so naturally we won't miss these places."

It was only then that Hua Shi realized that he was thinking too naively, and when he was thinking this way, Cheng Song on the opposite side also said: "This time the matter is not small, the spirit master has already arranged to notify the heads of all factions Or the elders went to check it out, Pavilion Master Xuan chose this place, we will naturally have other people go to investigate other places."

Xuan Shuzhi's gaze was still on the map. Hearing what Cheng Song said, he pointed to several other marked places and asked, "Have people been assigned to these places?"

Cheng Song took a look, shook his head and said, "Not yet, there are too many places, and the spirit master doesn't want ordinary disciples to take risks, so he can only work hard for the masters to make a few more trips, so some places have not been arranged yet."

Xuan Shuzhi fixed his fingertips there, and said casually: "Keep it here, I'll let people go and see."

Cheng Song raised his head in a little surprise: "Master Xuan, you..."

"Don't ask too much, I will give you news within five days after the investigation." Xuan Shuzhi interrupted Cheng Song.

Cheng Song did not ask any more questions, just smiled and said: "It would be great if we can get the result as soon as possible."

What did Hua Shi think of listening to the conversation between the two, and after the senior senior who was said to be very senior left, Hua Shi couldn't help but asked Xuan Shuzhi: "Master, do you want Senior Wen Zhong and the others to go?" Check those places?"

Xuan Shuzhi nodded and said: "Yes, they have seen the black snake with their own eyes, it is most suitable for them to see, and the location of these places is the most important, it is the closest to Shuanglin Valley, there is no way for others to come and see me rest assured."

Hua Shi's eyes widened, and he understood the meaning of Xuan Shu's words, he said: "Master, you mean that there is something wrong with someone in the spiritual way?"

Xuan Shuzhi took another look at Hua Shi. He knew that Hua Shi could guess the reason why he left these places to observe alone, but he didn't expect that Hua Shi could use it to think of deeper problems in a short sentence. After a pause, he explained, "It's just a guess."

Hua Shi couldn't figure it out: "But there must be a reason for guessing, right?"

Xuan Shuzhi said: "Do you really think that everyone in the Lingdao now listens to Ji Yuan's words?"

Hua Shi felt that something was wrong: "He is the master of the spiritual way, if you don't listen to him, who will you listen to?"

Xuan Shuzhi shook his head, and pointed to the direction where Cheng Song left just now: "How much seniority does Ji Yuan have? After all, he is still my junior, and his cultivation level may not be better than mine. You don't have to follow his orders, the reason why he came here to spread the word is just to save face."

Hua Shi was suddenly a little surprised: "Then, the heads of several sects are older than him, and their strength seems to be not weak. Does it mean that few people listen to him?"

Xuan Shuzhi shook his head again, and said jokingly, "Of course it's not like what you said. If that's the case, with so many spirit masters in the past, do they all need to be stronger than everyone else?"

Hua Shi couldn't understand what Xuan Shuzhi meant: "Isn't it?"

Xuan Shuzhi shook his head and smiled: "You should listen to other people's explanations. I'll go and inform Zhou Xun and others to prepare, and you should go back and prepare. We'll leave in an hour."

Hua Shi blinked and stood there looking at Xuan Shuzhi, and understood who the "other" he was talking about was, so he went out and hurried back to his room, asking Fang Wei in his mind: "System, do you know?" What's the matter?"

In the past, Hua Shi didn't know how many chapters he had read and listened to so many storytellers' stories before he came up with this idea, so Fang Wei could only act as an explanation and said: "The original intention of the establishment of the Spiritual Dao General Altar was not to require the spiritual path. The Lord orders everyone, there are many spiritual schools, and if something big happens, each school will stick to its own opinion, even simple things will become troublesome, that's why there is a general altar of spiritual Tao, so that someone can stand at important times. Come out and discuss and make the right decision."

Hua Shi walked very fast, and returned to his room not long after. He was still curious about what Fang Wei said: "It turns out that the spirit master Ji Yuan is not as beautiful as he looks, so the master of the spiritual way and the master of the evil way Compared with the Lord of the Evil Way, the Lord of Evil Ways obviously has much more power? But if he makes a decision and no one else will listen to him, what should we do?"

Fang Weidao: "Each sect will restrict each other, and no one wants other sects to dominate, and the master of the spiritual way is the balance point."

So under normal circumstances, most sects will cooperate with Ji Yuan, unless someone wants to be an enemy of other sects of Lingdao.

At this time, Hua Shi has fully understood, but he still finds the truth unbelievable: "There are so many intrigues in Lingdao?"

"It's just human nature. Before the three factions of the evil way were all controlled by the lord of the evil way, they were also afraid of each other and cooperated with each other." Fang Wei said.

Hua Shi then asked Fang Wei some little gossip about spiritual and evil ways back then, and Fang Wei was able to answer most of them. Hua Shi was a little shocked that Liu Qishuang knew so much about gossip, but in fact he didn't know Fang Wei's back then. Originally, when he was the lord of the spiritual way and the lord of the evil way, he was always cleaning up the mess for everyone.

Therefore, many stories that Hua believed to be secret all passed through his hands.

After packing almost everything, Hua Shi stored the things in the Yunxiu pen space, and then walked out to the Ling Pavilion.And when Hua Shi arrived at the Ling Pavilion, Xuan Shuzhi had already been waiting at the door for a long time.

Seeing Hua Shi approaching, Xuan Shuzhi asked, "Where's your sword?"

Hua Shi took out the Yunxiu brush: "The sword is inside."

Because he was worried that people would recognize the Lingsha sword, he would never take out the Lingsha sword in front of others. Most of the time he hid it in the space of Yunxiu's pen, and only took it out when it was really critical, or There will be no scruples in front of familiar people.

Xuan Shuzhi looked at the Yunxiu brush in Hua Shi's hand and nodded without saying anything more, but Hua Shi was a little worried and said, "Will you do it then? Will it be dangerous?"

"Maybe, you should be more vigilant then." Xuan Shuzhi muttered, and said in a low voice, "If you can't beat him, leave immediately."

Hua Shi was alert: "Master, why do I feel that you have been persuading me to leave?"

When he said before that he wanted to check there, Xuan Shuzhi tried to use various arguments to dissuade Hua Shi from going there. When Hua Shi insisted on going there, Xuan Shuzhi persuaded him to run away Run as far as possible, this is really not what Xuan Shuzhi would say usually, and it made Hua Shi feel even more strange after hearing it.

Xuan Shuzhi knew that Hua Shi had noticed something, so he finally retracted what he said just now: "Since you insist on going, then go."

Hua Shi nodded and prepared to go out of Xuanling Pavilion, choosing to take a carriage or ride a horse directly, but when Xuan Shuzhi carried him directly to the sky, he realized that his thinking was too simple, Xuan Shuzhi You don't need those things at all, you just need a sword.

Hua Shi didn't know until now that Xuan Shuzhi's weapon turned out to be a sword instead of a fan, and flying with a sword is not something that only the disciples of the Hanxi Sect can do, they can also do it in the Xuanling Pavilion.

Shocked, Hua Mu couldn't help asking Xuan Shuzhi why he refused to teach him how to fly with the sword, and Xuan Shuzhi didn't hide anything, but said bluntly that he was afraid that he wouldn't step on the Lingsha Sword, which is a good sword. sword.

Hua Shi: "..."

Compared with the calmness when Zhou Liyujian carried Huashi in the past, the speed of Xuanshu to Yujian can almost be called wild. Huashi never thought that his master seemed calm and silent on weekdays. But there is no contrast.

Arriving at the place to be investigated, Hua Shi was put down by Xuan Shuzhi and rested by the tree. After a while, he finally recovered. He turned his head and looked around and said, "Have we arrived yet? There doesn't seem to be anything special here? "

"It doesn't look special now, but you'll know it soon." There were indeed ordinary forests all around, but Xuan Shuzhi didn't relax his vigilance. He raised his hand and waved his sleeves, and as the wind swayed from his sleeves, a thin silver trail suddenly appeared in the air following his movements.

Hua Shi was stunned and said, "What is this?"

Xuan Shuzhi stared at where the trajectory was going, and said in a low voice, "This is where the black snake passed."

Hua Shi stared at the front, following the silver track, it was clearly a wasteland, he said: "Where did the black snake go? What's there?"

Xuan Shuzhi said: "You will know if you go and have a look."
