Lock text system: The hero please respect yourself

Even if the disciples were not sure whether the person in front of them was Lan Zhi, they could feel that his cultivation was advanced, and there were probably only two elders present who could subdue him.They didn't dare to be negligent, and surrounded them in groups, not daring to approach after a distance of one or two feet.Poor young disciples, for the first time in their lives, they left the Northbound Sect to see the world, and they saw the legendary person who had been resurrected from the dead.

Lan Zhi thought that he couldn't escape now anyway, so he had no choice but to plan, and said coldly: "What are you going to do? Don't you know me?"

Elder Song came up and asked: "A few days ago, I heard that there was a man in blue posing as Lan Zhi near the north line. It seems to be you. Who are you and what are your intentions?"

Lan Zhi glanced at Wan Chengbin, but didn't speak.

Elder Song couldn't help but feel that the current situation was a bit strange, so he also turned to look at Elder Wan.Wan Chengbin has always liked to preside over the overall situation, and he would never remain silent at this time, why does he seem to be dumb now?

Elder Song flipped his right hand, and a red half-arc weapon appeared, with a faint red light flowing in it.Knowing that the elder was going to attack, the disciples all took two steps back, but Bai Fengyang stood still and said in a low voice: "I haven't clarified the matter yet, why don't Elder Song ask for clarification first, and then make plans."

Before the words were finished, the light red light fell from the air, and the sound of the wind came oncoming, whistling.Lan Zhi didn't dare to resist forcefully, and flew in the air to dodge in embarrassment.He couldn't stand upright, and when he fell to the ground, he knelt on one knee, but his right hand was already holding a green weapon that looked like gold but not gold, jade but not jade.

Among the disciples, who doesn't recognize this weapon?He cried out: "Heng Yang! This is Heng Yang!"

Humans can be transformed into illusions, but how can their Horcruxes be transformed into illusions?As soon as Heng Yang came out, this person must be Lan Zhi's real body!

Elder Song immediately withdrew his hand, and was also terrified, wondering: "Who are you? Show me the weapon in your hand."

Lan Zhi stood up slowly, looked around, his face was as cold as ice: "I woke up from a tomb more than a month ago, and when I passed Youlong Town, I heard that I was exterminated by the Northbound Sect. What happened? What's going on?"

Since they believe that they have been robbed before, why not just let them have a good time?

Elder Song was slightly taken aback, and immediately turned his head to look at Elder Wan, only to see Wan Chengbin stroking his beard with a strange expression, half-closed his eyes, as if he was exploring Lan Zhi's intentions.Su Chu and Qi Muran also looked at each other, Qi Muran took a step forward and said: "You mean, you wake up from the tomb and don't remember anything before?"

Lan Zhi frowned and said, "I just remember that Master was discussing the opening of the mountain gate at the court meeting, and the new disciples would enter."

That was over a year ago!

Bai Fengyang gritted his teeth: "You mean, one moment you were discussing matters at the court meeting, and the next moment you crawled out of the grave, and you forgot all about the year and a half in between?"

Lan Zhi said: "I only remember a piece of chaos in the middle, as if I fell asleep, and I don't know anything. Am I being plotted against? I heard that I killed someone?"

Elder Song frowned tightly.Qi Muran was stunned and said: "You mean, you are the original Senior Brother Lan?"

There seemed to be a flash of inspiration in a disciple's mind, and he stammered excitedly: "Didn't it mean that Senior Brother Lan was taken away before? Could it be that the real Senior Brother Lan came back once that soul left?"

The lost souls return.

Of course he was not the first to think so, but once he found out, the disciples immediately fidgeted and whispered: "Since he has Hengyang, he must be Senior Brother Lan himself. After taking the house, can he return his soul? Have you heard of it?" ?”

It was the first time Elder Song encountered such a thing in his life, he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and turned to look at Elder Wan who refused to open his mouth even if he died.Wan Chengbin was extremely annoyed, but at this time he had to take charge of the overall situation, and said sternly: "In the past year, you have harmed your fellow disciples, angered everyone, and is not tolerated by the righteous way. Now you claim to be the original body of Lan Zhi, what happened before has nothing to do with you Doesn't matter?"

"It has nothing to do with me."

Elder Wan and Elder Song exchanged glances, and asked: "It's unheard of for the soul to be reborn after the seizure. Even if we want to believe you, we have no proof. Would you like to go back north with us to verify your integrity, and then do it again?" disposal?"

Lan Zhi gave Wan Chengbin a cold look: "You are welcome."

Wan Chengbin stopped talking.

The disciples didn't expect such a turning point in this trip, but they still didn't dare to withdraw their weapons, they just looked at the two elders and waited for instructions.Elder Song showed uneasiness, but he didn't want to take away Wan Chengbin's meaning, so he whispered beside him.

The owner of the inn and the guys thought that these people were going to fight, and they called it unlucky, and they were afraid to find a place to hide. At this time, they were very happy to come out to smooth things over: "It's really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. The family doesn't know the family. People. Since you are one of your own people, it is easy to handle. The apricot blossom wine brewed by the small shop is famous far and wide. Today, I will send a jar to the monks..."

Just halfway through the conversation, Elder Song took out a yellow elixir and said loudly: "You claim to be Lan Zhi, whether it is true or not, we are not sure now. For the safety of the disciples, you took this elixir , Temporarily seal the air sea."

Heng Yang on Lan Zhi's right hand suddenly burst into blue light, against his cold and ruthless face, the murderous look suddenly appeared.Seeing this, the disciples felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and saw Lan Zhi's thin lips move and spit out two words: "Don't even think about it."

Immediately, swords were on the verge of breaking out again in the inn.

The shopkeeper was overwhelmed by the murderous spirit of this group of people, and stepped aside tremblingly, not daring to speak out again.

Qi Muran said in a low voice: "Elder Song is worried that Senior Brother Lan will harm others, so why isn't Senior Brother Lan worried that others will harm him? Sealing the sea of ​​energy is no different from ordinary people, who will be killed or cut at will. This method is absolutely impossible, and he must go to war, or think about it There are other ways to do it."

These words are reasonable, Elder Song took out another bright red elixir in a calm manner: "This is the Sunburning Pill I refined, now you swallow it, and I will help you melt it when you return to the Northward Sect." took it."

The Qi Shu Pill is just a cover, and the Zhixin Pill is the real purpose.

Elder Song practiced the secret scriptures alone, and Zhixin Pill was extremely helpful to his cultivation, but others couldn't dissolve this kind of elixir, and his heart fire would accumulate day by day, and problems would begin to appear within a month. It seems to be burned, making people feel miserable.

It is actually not difficult to dissolve this Zhixin Pill, a kind of icy dew forms on the Jiutian Mountain in the extreme north, and three drops can melt this elixir, which is of great benefit to cultivation.But even if Lan Zhi knew, how could he have the time to go to the extreme north to find ice dew?If you eat this pill, you will be restrained by Elder Song.

He stood expressionless, neither agreeing nor refusing.Elder Song sighed: "My elixir is also a rare thing. If you are open-minded, why not swallow it? In the future, if I help you melt it, won't you benefit yourself? If you insist on refusing it, neither will I." The other way is to temporarily abolish your cultivation."

Of course, Lan Zhi didn't want to be held back by others, but unfortunately he had no other choice now, if he could retrieve the jade token in time, he would just buy three drops of ice dew and drink it.Thinking of this, he picked up the pill from Elder Song and swallowed it, then sat down without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the inn suddenly relaxed, and the disciples also put away their weapons one after another, whispering to each other and looking in Lan Zhi's direction.Elder Song and Elder Wan glanced at each other, and whispered to Qi Muran and the others: "Pay attention to his movements, if there is anything strange, report it immediately."

The murderous intent disappeared, and the shopkeeper was scared out of his wits before he dared to reappear.The guys around him asked: "Is this all right? Can't you fight?"

The shopkeeper said in a low voice: "This is a well-known decent family in the north. I'm afraid they came here to do business. Hurry up and send them two jars of wine, and send them away with delicious food."

Elder Song, Bai Fengyang and others came to Lan Zhi's table to take a seat. They bowed their heads and had a drink, but no one said a word.Lan Zhi is arrogant and reticent, Bai Fengyang hangs his head as if he has something on his mind, Qi Muran usually doesn't like to talk too much, Su Chu has become more silent since Li You's death, Elder Song is used to being the second in command, so he has already said a lot , at this moment, I also want Wan Chengbin to regain power.

But Wan Chengbin just sat drinking and didn't even look at Lan Zhi.

Several people all thought in unison, did old man Wan take the wrong medicine today, why did he not say a word like a clam with his mouth closed?

Elder Song cleared his throat and asked, "After you crawled out of the grave, why didn't you go back north and come here instead?"

Lan Zhi said: "It's been said everywhere that I killed my fellow disciples, where can I go? A few days ago, I heard that the disciples going north were missing, so I followed the clues and came here."

Elder Song frowned and said, "What clues did you find out?"

Lan Zhi didn't answer and asked instead: "How did you find out here?"

As soon as these words came out, as if a string was touched, the atmosphere on the table immediately became a little weird, and several people exchanged glances quickly.Knowing that something must have happened, Lan Zhi asked, "What's going on? Is it related to me?"

Bai Fengyang glanced at him, but didn't speak.

Lan Zhi really felt that there was some deep meaning in Bai Fengyang's gaze, which seemed to be disdainful and unbearable, and it seemed to be a disgraceful thing, even the others shut their mouths and kept silent.Elder Wan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and threw it on the table: "Look for yourself."

Lan Zhi opened it in his hand.

[Take Brother Lan's body in exchange for five disciples.South of the crossing river, Guhan Town. 】

Lan Zhi's heart was shaken, and there were only a few words left in his mind over and over again: Oops, something is not good.

Elder Song bowed his head and said nothing when he saw that he was in a daze, and said, "You were taken away a year ago by someone who killed a new disciple who entered the mountain, and let another disciple named Jian Qiang pretend to enter the North Mountain. Xingpai. The two of them secretly planned something. They killed three disciples including Li You one after another. Your junior brother Bai saw the clue, but you were framed by the two of them, and you were almost killed. Later, your junior brother Bai revealed his true colors , he had no choice but to rebel against the Northbound Sect, and was stabbed in the chest by Li You's father with a cloud blade. He couldn't survive seven days of purgatory, and finally died. Elder Wan destroyed Jian Qiang's cultivation base and expelled him from the sect. The matter was already over, I didn't expect him to make a comeback so soon, and kidnapped five heavenly disciples from my Northbound Sect."

Bai Fengyang drank a glass of wine: "Nothing else, just your corpse."

How could Lan Zhi hear what they were saying, folded the letter, and asked, "My body was neither in Lan's house nor in the Northward Sect, but was buried in the wild in the mountains. What's the matter?"

After hearing this, several people at the table felt a little ashamed when they thought of Lan Zhi's body being casually discarded in the back mountain.Lan Zhi's death was something that everyone didn't want to face, so no one wanted to mention it for a few months, and let him rot slowly in the back mountain.

Elder Wan cleared his throat and said, "Since you have killed your fellow disciples and practiced magic, naturally you can't be buried in the Lan family and the spiritual land of Beixing, so you have to find a random place to bury you."

Lan Zhi thought to himself that the people who buried him could never be Elder Wan and others, fearing that his former disciples felt sorry for his dead body in the wilderness, and couldn't bear it, so they found a place to bury him properly.Now he couldn't continue to pursue this matter, and said again: "You don't have my body, how can you exchange those five disciples with him?"

Elder Song said bitterly: "It's not true, it's false."

Qi Muran said: "Elder Song wanted to transform into Senior Brother Lan's appearance, so he held his breath temporarily, and exchanged it with Senior Brother Lan's corpse. Once the five disciples are brought back, Elder Song will capture him alive."

captured alive?fart!In all likelihood, he was going to kill him.

Bai Fengyang said: "They are very familiar with each other, if it is a fake, how could he not see the clue?"

It should be noted that in the case of illusion, it is easiest to transform into someone who has never seen it before. If you want to transform into a mature person, it is easy to neglect the subtleties, and it is difficult to become exactly the same, and there will be some discrepancies.With Jian Qiang's familiarity with him, I'm afraid that the problem will be discovered within three feet.

Qi Muran said: "Since the real Senior Brother Lan happens to be here, why not let Senior Brother Lan pretend to be a corpse and replace those five disciples? Wouldn't it be better for Senior Brother Lan to take him alive at that time?"

Naturally, Lan Zhi wanted to see Jian Qiang eagerly, but he didn't dare to show any emotion, his face was like a blank board, cold and indifferent, he raised his glass and poured himself a drink.

Elder Wan half-closed his eyes and stroked his beard lightly. He said nothing, but there was a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Elder Song naturally knew that if Lan Zhi fought in person, the odds of winning would be several percent higher.Although Jian Qiang was not afraid, he held the lives of five heavenly disciples in his hands. If he accidentally offended him, those five people would definitely die.

Elder Song hesitated and said: "This is a good strategy. If you can capture Jian Qiang alive, it will prove your innocence."

Lan Zhi cast a low glance at everyone, and said after a long time: "If the elder thinks so, it proves his innocence, and the disciple should obey his orders. If the disciple can't capture him alive, he should kill him."

As soon as these words came out, Elder Song showed a slight smile, but Elder Wan sighed slightly: "No matter what the result is, as long as I don't hurt innocent people, I will be satisfied."

Elder Song couldn't help but frowned again, Elder Wan usually acts more simply and cruelly than Chi Su, why is he so sentimental today?Before leaving, the head of the sect ordered that Jian Qiang dared to kidnap the disciples going north, and he absolutely could not tolerate it. He would either kill him or destroy his spiritual roots, and he would not be allowed to practice for the rest of his life.What happened to Elder Wan, who recently had some womanly benevolence?

Lan Zhi asked, "When will you meet him?"

Qi Muran said: "We've been waiting here for three days, but we haven't heard any news yet. I'm afraid we have to wait."

Elder Song looked at Lan Zhi, and ordered: "Go and wash your body first, and change into clean and tidy clothes. We will notify you when we have any news."

Lan Zhi didn't say any more, he had been on the road for several days, and his body was indeed a little sticky from the humid climate, so he obeyed his orders and left.His figure disappeared from the lobby, Su Chu lowered his head and asked, "Do you believe him?"

Elder Wan stroked his beard and didn't speak. He seemed to be troubled by many things. Elder Song said, "Of course I don't believe it for the time being. It's just that he didn't dare to do anything after taking my Zhixin Pill. Besides, his cultivation It’s just the moon rank, if there is a problem, nothing will happen. It’s just that the fact of the resurrection is strange, so we should bring it back to the Northward Sect and make plans.”

Bai Fengyang lowered his head and got up to leave, Elder Song said: "Talk to him more, find out the truth."

Qi Muran and Bai Fengyang looked at each other: "If he is really a fake, he already knows my Northbound faction well. We didn't find out that there is something wrong with him more than a year ago, how can we find out now?"

Elder Song thought for a while, called a disciple not far away, and said softly, "You don't have to stay here anymore, go to Jingyue Palace and ask Palace Master Li to borrow something..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, Bai Fengyang didn't want to stay here, so he turned and went upstairs.He just opened the door of his room, but saw Lan Zhi come out from the room at the end of the corridor, and told the waiter, "Prepare the bath water, it's cold."

The man asked anxiously: "This May day, where can I find cold bath water? The water in the well is still warm. Why don't monks leave Lonely Town and go south, where there is a deep underground lake, which is always cold for many years. Yes, and it’s very quiet, with no one around. When I was young, I went to play, and when I put my hand in, I almost froze my fingers.”

Lan Zhi frowned, and ordered: "Bring me the water from that lake, within an hour."

Dude was on the verge of crying.That place was too far away, and he still had a lot of work to do, and it was too time-consuming to fetch water.But this person seemed to be highly cultivated, and he was so cold and frightening that he didn't even dare to say a word.

The guy was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. Bai Fengyang bit his lips, and walked up and said, "It's just a shower, so it's so embarrassing? I didn't see you being so troublesome last year. You go to work, you don't need to fetch water for him."

It was precisely because last year that there was no such trouble, I'm afraid that the disaster was planted.

Lan Zhi was a little angry.Now he wants to play Lan Zhi's role with all his strength, but Bai Fengyang just doesn't let him have a good time.

Seeing Lan Zhi's expression turned pale, the man hurriedly said, "It's okay! Monks, please don't quarrel over petty matters. I'll fetch water right away."

Bai Fengyang's tone was severe: "I told you, there is no need to go."

The guy was caught in the middle of the two, and he felt as if he accidentally got involved in the shopkeeper's housework, and was tossed and tossed by the boss and the boss's wife in turn, and he couldn't tell the pain.

Lan Zhi was so angry that his chest was blocked, he looked down at Bai Fengyang and closed the door.The clerk left thankfully, but Bai Fengyang stood at the door blankly, knocked on the door and said, "Come out, I have something to ask you!"

Lan Zhi opened the door: "What's the matter?"

Bai Fengyang lowered his voice and said: "Your gaze, that gaze of oppressing me with your body, has only existed since last year, and it never existed before. You are basically..."

Lan Zhi's heart trembled, and he said slowly: "I have used my body to suppress you since a few years ago, didn't you realize it?"

"Nonsense." Bai Fengyang looked at Lan Zhi with a frown, as if he wanted to say a lot, but he didn't dare to speak, and finally said, "Let me get you some water."

Lan Zhi's scalp went numb, and he closed the door on his face: "No need! I'll go by myself."

At the second watch, the wind had turned cooler, and the stream beside the town was also cool.Lan Zhi left the inn, walked down the path south of Guhan Town, and came to a place called Qingbo Lake.The underground lake introduced by the buddy is really hidden, it is tens of feet deep underground, and it is so cold that people's bodies will fall off.

Lan Zhi closed his eyes, tested the water temperature with his toes, and finally took off his clothes and stepped in.He likes warm water, but since he can't show any clues now, the previous habit can no longer be retained.

In fact, after washing for a long time, the cold water is not so unbearable.

Just as he was in pain, he poured water on his body to hypnotize his nerves, but he heard a movement behind him.Lan Zhi was taken aback, and asked, "Who?"

The man behind him didn't answer.

Elder Song saw him at the door of the inn just now and asked him where he was going and if he needed someone to follow him, but he firmly refused.Is it possible that you are still here?

Lan Zhi held back his anger and turned his head. Before he could speak, he saw a man in black on the shore standing motionless, like a sharp sword stuck in a rock.His face and expression were covered by the shadows, and he couldn't see anything clearly, but people could clearly feel his unblinking eyes.

Lan Zhi suddenly pulled his clothes over his body, his throat was so dry that he couldn't make a sound.
