In order to avoid being suspected by the team leader, Jiang Yan didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, he was on duty seriously, and waited until night when he changed shifts and returned to his dormitory, and then he pretended to casually ask about his bedmate.

According to Zhang Tong's memory, the person who slept with him was a very talkative old man with a cheerful personality and a lot of gossip. He was usually very noisy and disliked by Zhang Tong, but now Jiang Yan was very grateful for this and asked about things. It is really convenient to come.

This person did not disappoint Jiang Yan's expectations, so Jiang Yan started, and he told him everything that happened today.

A monk from the prison in the inner courtyard escaped and heard that he had broken into the third of the nine gates in the inner courtyard, but was finally captured by the monks of the City Lord's Mansion.

The so-called nine-layered gate of the inner courtyard is the nine-layered guard formation built to protect the city lord when the city lord's mansion was built, and this nine-fold guarded formation can only be entered and exited through a specially opened door, and such a door can also be imagined , the protection must be very strict.

This person can single-handedly pass through the triple gate, which means that he has some skills, but not enough to reach Zhao Qiuchen's level. Jiang Yan estimated that if Zhao Qiuchen was the one who escaped, even if he failed, he would definitely be able to pass through more than six gates.

Jiang Yan stayed in the city lord's mansion for seven or eight days, thoroughly inquiring inside and out, including the architectural structure of the inner city, as well as the range of guards and shift shift time, and most importantly, the countless obstacles set up by the inner city Array.

Speaking of which, the city lord of this fairy city is really talented. A small inner city is built like a tortoise's bastard shell. There are four or five warning formations alone, and there are also guarding formations and enemy trapping formations. , attack formation, psychedelic burst.

Jiang Yan reckoned that the sum of these formations alone might be worth a lot, and he didn't know how many people this person offended, so generous.

And according to Jiang Yan's cliché, it took the city lord to strengthen the protection of the inner city in the past six months. These guards were all good family members who waved from the fairy city a few months ago. Because they couldn't enter the sect, they went to the city lord's mansion eat.

Speaking of this, the other guards were all grateful to the new city lord. They originally had no qualifications for cultivation, but the new city lord did not dislike their low qualifications and allowed them to become monks. Although they were only the lowest-level Qi training monks, This is much better than ordinary civilians.

Jiang Yan was noncommittal to these words. This new city lord has courage, ambition, and prudence in his actions. If he is so courteous to others, he must have a big plan. These people must be useful to him, so he will cultivate him in this way, and this cultivation , and will inevitably make these people pay the price.

Looking at these hopeful young people, Jiang Yan sighed in his heart, and only hoped that the price would not be too high.

A few days later, Jiang Yan finally figured out everything he could touch, and it would be useless to stay any longer, so he found an opportunity, asked for leave with the team leader, and left the City Lord's Mansion.

As soon as he left, Meng Lang, who had been guarding the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, followed, and they went back to the inn.

As soon as he came back, Lu Chen hurried over from his room, and was relieved to see that Jiang Yan was safe.

"Senior brother, how are you?" Meng Lang was the first to ask.

Jiang Yan nodded: "I've checked almost everything, but Zhang Tong is just a small guard, and he still can't get in touch with those deeper things, only some superficial."

"No matter what, we can't wait any longer now, Peak Master!" Meng Lang was already very anxious after waiting for the past few days, and now he couldn't help but raise his voice.

A sullen look flashed across Lu Chen's face, but Jiang Yan remained calm.

"Of course I know, so I decided to do it tonight, and things will change later!" Jiang Yan said with a serious face: "If Senior Brother Zhao is really captured by the people of the City Lord's Mansion, it is likely that he was trapped in the inner city." I heard that it is the most difficult place to escape in the city lord's mansion, guarded by countless formations and masters, I have already found out the exact location, and I will go straight there tonight."

There is still a word that is not said, there are quite a lot of people locked up there, they went there to save people, just fished in troubled waters, and the City Lord's Mansion didn't know who was doing it.

Hearing this, Meng Lang couldn't help but get shocked, and hurriedly stood up: "Okay, then I'll go get ready."

Jiang Yan nodded, thought for a while and said: "Put Zhang Tong back, and change his memory of the past few days, let him go back normally, and don't expose this matter early."

Meng Lang nodded: "Don't worry, I will take care of it."

Jiang Yan smiled, and didn't say much more, this trust in him can still be given to Meng Lang.

A few hours later, Zhang Tong, who looked a bit dull, returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Because he was originally taciturn, no one noticed his strangeness.

Jiang Yan was worried all the time, for fear that someone would find out that Zhang Tong's was different, but after waiting for an hour, he found that there was no wave, so he was relieved.

They waited until night, the middle of the month, before they started to act. This time it was still Jiang Yan and Meng Lang who acted. To Jiang Yan's surprise, Lu Chen did not raise any objections to this arrangement, and obediently agreed. I stayed to watch the house.

Taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, Jiang Yan and Meng Lang went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

The reason for choosing this time is not that the moon must be dark and the wind is high to kill and set fire, but because at this time, people are the most tired and most relaxed.

Most of the guards in the City Lord's Mansion are low-level Qi training monks. Apart from using some small spells, these people are actually no different from ordinary people. They still have to sleep and eat, so these people will also feel sleepy in the middle of the night.

This is not to say that Jiang Yan and the others are afraid of these low-level monks, but Jiang Yan has always been cautious, as long as he can reduce the risk of this business, even if it is only a tiny bit, he will not hesitate to implement it.

They easily passed through the outer city, and the outer part of the inner city, because of Jiang Yan's investigation in the past few days, also easily passed through, until they reached the edge of the Jiuzhong Gate.

This nine-fold gate is the core part of the city lord's mansion, and the guards here are also the confidantes of the city lord's confidantes, each level is stricter than the last level, and at the last ninth level, it is said that there are several Jindan monks hired by the city lord to sit there.

Of course, this kind of rigor is nothing to them, it is very simple to deal with, but if they make a move, the whole fairy city will be alarmed, and then it will be the biggest trouble, what Jiang Yan wants, It was sneaking in quietly, rather than knocking on the door openly.

"This nine-fold gate looks like a door, but it is actually a portal carved out of heaven, material and earth treasures. This portal can be regarded as the eye of each formation of the nine-fold guardian formation. If you want to enter the gate, you must know the magic formula. , and this formula changes every day. If you say the wrong word, it will alarm the city lord, but if you say the right code, it will be sent to the formation of the guards inside the gate, and there will be no way to cover up your tracks. .”

Speaking of this, Jiang Yan couldn't help sighing that in such a small place, there are such amazingly talented people who can invent such a useful magic circle.

Meng Lang didn't have the time to lament these things, he just frowned and said in a low voice: "Peak Master, can you do something?"

In Meng Lang's view, the most capable person in the world is Jiang Yan. Since he can say this, he must have a breakthrough.

Jiang Yan smiled, and said in a low voice: "Although this magic circle is foolproof, the door and the magic circle are not integrated after all. I have been observing here for two days, and finally found one of the omissions."

Jiang Yan pointed to the wavy lines on the side of the door, and said in a low voice: "There is a slight conflict between the door and the magic circle, but the conflict is too small to be noticed, but it has left some traces over time. Observing with the spiritual sense, the fluctuation will appear after about a stick of incense, you will tighten me when the time comes, and we will break through from here."

Since it is a formation, of course it can break through, but no matter how wonderful the breakthrough is, it will inevitably cause fluctuations in the formation. Jiang Yan's idea is to use the fluctuation of the formation itself to cover up the fluctuation of her own breakthrough, and she also It's not to destroy the entire formation, but to break through a line and let a few of them go in, so the fluctuations generated are even smaller.

Of course, under the superposition, this fluctuation will inevitably be slightly larger than usual, but this is what Jiang Yan can think of, the best way to do it in a short time, give him a longer time, maybe there is a more complete way, But now time waits for no one, it can only be so.

Meng Lang didn't think deeply, and agreed without hesitation.

Jiang Yan tried his best to control his consciousness, and observed the fluctuation of the formation bit by bit. When he finally realized that the next moment would be the fluctuation, he decisively broke through a point in the formation with his finger, and then pulled Meng Lang From that trace of space, he rushed into the Nine Layers Gate.

This was just a matter of a moment, the ninth layer formation fluctuated slightly, and immediately returned to calm.

The person who monitored the formation in the City Lord's Mansion just blinked his eyes. When he looked again, the formation was calm. He looked at the monitoring jade pendant and found that the formation seemed to be beating just now. It was the fluctuation of the formation itself, so I didn't pay attention to it any more and continued to monitor it.

Jiang Yan and Meng Lang calmed down, if it wasn't for the wrong location, they might have breathed a sigh of relief.

The place where they broke through is at the corner not far from the Ninth Gate. After turning this place, you can see the guards guarding the Nine Gates. A little startled.

"It's really a close call." Meng Lang sighed in a low voice.

Jiang Yan smiled and shook his head, pointing to the southeast: "Go there, the prison of the City Lord's Mansion is in the southeast. The next few doors will be more difficult."

Meng Lang didn't dare to say much, and followed Jiang Yan towards the southeast.

Afterwards, the eighth, seventh and sixth gates were more difficult than the ninth gate, but they all came over so thrillingly, but when they reached the fifth gate, Jiang Yan's expression completely sank.

"Peak Master!" Meng Lang was a little uneasy.

Jiang Yan shook his head: "Now there is no room for us to take advantage of."

To say that the person who built the Nine Layers Gate is really a genius, there were flaws before, but this person is obviously getting more and more proficient, and now there is no flaw at all, and he is seamlessly integrated with the formation, such a person, he must see one sight!

Meng Lang was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Then what should we do?"

Jiang Yan smiled: "Since there is no room to take advantage of, then we can only fight in an open and honest manner."
