Shen Xie held Xu Yunji's hand, and suddenly he was on the top of the mountain.

The wind was strong on the top of the mountain, blowing away the restlessness baked by the sun.

Xu Yunji took out the compass and was about to calculate it when Shen Xie patted the back of his hand: "Just follow me."

The young man took back the compass again, and lowered his voice: "Is that how it goes?"

"You should have known it earlier. You don't need to speak so quietly." Shen Xie smiled, "There is such a big commotion down the mountain, and there are armed police and armored vehicles. If Zhang Suxing has been paying attention to this place, he will probably realize that something is wrong."

"That's right." Xu Yunji followed Shen Xie to the gate of a temple and stopped.

Xu Yunji raised his eyes and saw a pheasant gate, with green tiles and vermilion beams, single eaves and resting hilltop with upturned ridges, high eaves teeth, wide platform, slanted peach branches on both sides, and flower buds all the way to the gate.A vertical plaque is hung in the middle, with three gold characters: Guandi Temple.

It is a typical ancient palace-style building. Look at the explanatory stone tablet standing on the side. This Guan Temple is also an ancient relic of the Qing Dynasty, and it is full of incense all the year round.

But it was not the building that attracted the two of them, but the formation at the door.

Shen Xie swept his eyes and showed a little sneer:

"There are runes engraved on the bucket arch at the entrance, which is attached with the power of Tao, covering up the dragon aura in the temple, so that tourists or other Taoist priests with real talents can't find the clue when they come in and out. The mixed aura is really ingenious."

Xu Yunji looked at Dou Gong following his instructions, and immediately showed an angry expression:

"Things from the Qing Dynasty are actually depicted directly on them? This is a crime of destroying cultural relics. I will take a photo as evidence."

Shen Xie: "..."

He reached out and covered his forehead: "The year of chaos is tens of thousands of years older than this hall."

"Ah?" The young man was at a loss, "But this is a national 5A-level scenic spot. This Guan Temple is a key cultural relic protection unit. Chaos has lived for hundreds of millions of years. He doesn't have this certification, and he is no more expensive than the palace."

Shen Xie: "..."

OK, you have the final say.

"It seems that Zhang Xianrong, the patriarch of the Zhang family, is hiding here." Xu Yunji took out his mobile phone and sent Yu Xiangying a message, telling them to come over as soon as they got off the cable car.

Waiting for the time spent by the management department, Xu Yunji turned around at the door, and found the bronze medal placed behind the pillar in order to conceal and not destroy the overall scene, as the publicity bronze medal of the construction responsible unit.

"Half a year ago, it was renovated here, and it was said that it was because of the aging of the cultural relics and the peeling of the wall paint."

Xu Yunji blinked and asked Shen Xie,

"What do you think is the probability that Zhang Suxing's people will sneak into the construction team and do something wrong?"

"I still have to ask?" Shen Xie shook his head, "It's too easy for real estate giants to find someone to join the construction team. Zhang Suxing chose a good industry."

Hearing his words, Xu Yunji suddenly thought: "The Zhang family established a group to focus on the real estate business more than 20 years ago. At that time, Zhang Suxing was not the same as he is now. It is the time when he is in power. You say, yes They happened to meet Chaos after they started real estate, and they hit it off right away, or did they have the shadow of Chaos from the very beginning, long before they developed their real estate business?"

The question diverges here, which makes people feel that the matter is a little more complicated, but except for Zhang Suxing and Zhang Xianrong, I am afraid that no one knows the answer.

Xu Yunji and Shen Xie guessed a few words before giving up.

It took nearly half an hour for the large troops to come, and when everyone arrived, Shen Xie said to everyone:

"There are a total of more than 60 people here. According to my idea, they are divided into two parts. Some of them are lower than the Chengjing Realm. They will enclose the Guandi Temple, control the four entrances and exits, and the passages that can go down the mountain, as the outermost layer. Guarantee to prevent escape. Cultivators above the fourth level, come with me. Yunji and I have carefully studied the formations on the eight dragon veins before, and we take the lead. Considering the complexity of the formations here, in order to prevent accidents, thank you Zheng and Yu Changer are relatively strong, so they are the last ones."

No one objected.

So we divided into two teams, and everyone quietly walked into the pheasant gate in order.

Behind the pheasant gate is the main hall.The hall is seven rooms wide and six rooms deep, with straight railings and horizontal sills, carved beams and painted buildings.Inside the golden lacquered mahogany shrine is a seated statue of Guan Yu, and outside the shrine is a wooden cloud and dragon carved on golden pillars, and the aroma of the bronze furnace is wafting.

Shen Xie didn't have any feelings for Emperor Guan, but Xu Yunji and other cultivators had to stop for a while.As a representative, Xu Yunji burned three sticks of incense and said:

"I'm here for the sake of the country, the family and the country. I want to bother you in your temple for a while. I hope Emperor Guan will forgive me."

The incense is inserted into the incense burner, and the smoke goes straight up, continuously.Xu Yunji breathed a sigh of relief, took Shen Xie's hand, and said to the people behind: "Let's go."

Behind it is a spacious courtyard with side halls on both sides, and behind it is a row of very narrow back rooms, which are dusty and inconspicuous.The door was locked with chains.

I'm afraid that none of the pilgrims who come to offer incense will notice this row of small shrines.

Xu Yunji glanced at it but found that there was a formation at the door that could make people ignore the cover room behind.

"It should be here."

He pointed to the shade room.

"This place... looks too small in depth, and the houses are simple. Is the person behind the scenes staying here?"

The person who asked the question was Ling Fengsheng, the head of the Mingzhen Sect, a female cultivator with a somewhat fierce appearance.Being able to secure the position of the head of the first sect, she is not the highest in cultivation, but she is very capable. She manages such a large sect in an orderly manner, but she also has a mid-term cultivation base.

"Judging from the deceptive formation at the door, there must be a secret inside, and there is a high probability that it is here."

Xu Yunji raised his hand to wipe off the formation on the door, and found that the formation was not very complicated.

He stretched out his hand again, spit out his mana, and directly broke the iron chain on the door, and then pushed open the two dusty, inconspicuous wooden doors.

The door opened suddenly, and a cool air came in faintly.

Shen Xie entered first, followed by Xu Yunji, followed by Yu Xiangying, Feng Baoguo, Ling Fengsheng and others.

However, a total of seven or eight people came in, and they felt that they couldn't turn away.

The hut is indeed extremely small, and the bottom can be seen at a glance.There are empty white walls on all sides, and an altar is placed on the north side. On it stands a dusty plastic statue of Guan Gong. There is a layer of dirt in the fruit plate, and no one has touched it for many years.There are two chairs side by side on the west side, and a lot of unidentifiable sundries are piled up on the east side.

"This is it? It looks like no one has been here for many years. The door is locked, and I'm afraid it has always been used as a storage room in Guandi Temple."

Feng Baoguo looked at the fruit plate on the table and said.

Xu Yunji looked down at the ground.

There is no dust on the ground, so it can be seen that someone has cleaned it, and there are sundries on the Buddha statue on the altar. I don't know if it is not necessary to clean it, or it is deliberately used as a blindfold.

He was looking at the ground when Shen Xie suddenly took two steps to the west, without saying a word, he slammed down with his palm.

With his level of strength, he has reached perfection, and his divine power can cut through the concrete floor poured during the renovation just right. With a movement of his fingers, those hard and thick cement layers disappeared, and the people next to him didn't even notice the wind.

A group of people watched him because of his movements, but before they could be shocked, they were attracted by the iron plate exposed under the cement.

"This—I don't know how Mr. Shen noticed the difference?"

Ling Fengsheng asked.

"The transfer formation is depicted on the ground." Shen Xie said, "It is estimated that the other one is in the Zhang family. Zhang Suxing should use the formation method to go back and forth between them every day."

After digging out the cement, the iron plate below is very familiar.

Xu Yunji came over and took a look: "Isn't this the same as the iron plates in the other seven underground wells in Tuoshi?"

Even if I don't know the power of Tao, I always remember the pattern.This kind of strange and incomprehensible lines, but after looking at them for a long time, I feel a simple force rushing towards my face, and the lines in a trance must be the power of Tao.

Sure enough, Shen Xie nodded:

"To cover up the dragon energy, to cover up the secrets of the sky, the same number of ways."

He stretched out his hand, erasing the pattern like he did in Ruoshi, the pale golden divine power released from his palm and landed on the iron plate, and within a few breaths of effort, the power of Tao on it was wiped away.

Xu Yunji cooperated with the mana to pull out the iron plate and put it aside. As expected, a tunnel that could only allow one person to walk in was exposed underneath.

Yu Xiangying came over: "We need to enter the tunnel?"

"Wait." Xu Yunji pulled him, "It doesn't feel right."

Shen Xie also nodded slightly, signaling Yu Xiangying to back off.

He is a divine beast with a strong spiritual sense, and he discovered the clue just by looking at it intently.

He looked at the hole for a moment and said:

"The bottom is full of mechanical formations. If I enter it, I'm not sure what will happen. The left and right swords, water and fire are indispensable. Especially the runes carved with the power of Tao at the entrance of the cave. explode."

Yu Xiangying was extremely nervous when he heard this: "This... can you judge what mechanisms are there? How powerful will the explosion be? Or do we need to evacuate temporarily and study this formation clearly?"

"Evacuate?" Shen Xie glanced at him with a hint of mockery, "Armored vehicles surrounded the mountain today, and all the surrounding roads were closed. For this battle, Zhang Suxing would tell that Zhang Xianrong of the Zhang family if he was not a fool. Zhang Xianrong would definitely tell Chaos. The other party must know now, but we have blocked the road on the mountain, and he can't go, so he can only use the advantage of his own formation in the lair to fight head-to-head. If we evacuate today, Zhang Xianrong will turn around and take the Nine Dragons If you can finish the formation, or run if you can’t finish it, do you still want to catch them again?”

This was so that Yu Xiangying couldn't refute even half a word.For a while, there was a dilemma, and the faces of the rest of the people were as sinking as water, full of melancholy.

Even Shen Xie found it tricky for a while.

Although he was able to erase the Power of Dao, it took a lot of divine power. It took the other party an unknown amount of time to paint it. Just like this, he sensed it, and there were runes of Power of Dao almost everywhere.

Going in this way along the road, I'm afraid that Shen Xie himself will not be able to separate himself. If there are other opportunities, he will not be able to distract these people to protect them.And when he finally got through the tunnel to Zhang Xianrong's hiding place, it was very likely that Chaos was also there.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the small room was very heavy.

Xu Yunji looked at Shen Xie's unexpected face, blinked thoughtfully, and turned to look at Yu Xiangying with an ugly expression: "Wait, Yu Si, do you have the phone numbers of those armed police and troops down the mountain?"

"Yes. Expert Xu, do you mean to let them come? But they are all mortals, and they don't—"

"No, no, I just want to ask if they have an underground cavity detector." Xu Yunji spread his hands in the sight of everyone looking over, "Since it is dangerous to find Zhang Xianrong's lair along the tunnel from the entrance, why should we Do you want to follow the road they gave? This is a national-level scenic spot, and Zhang Suxing can't ask the construction team to dig it casually, so he must do it himself. I also know that the tunnel is not too far away. Then test it nearby, where is the underground There is a large hole, which is probably the old nest they dug out. We can just dig down from the surface directly opposite that position... What, why are you looking at me like this?"
