There are bandits in Zhongshan

In the evergreen bamboo grove, in a simple courtyard, a young man dressed as a scribe was pushed by a woman in red to stand in front of the guest room, looked at the slightly covered wooden door, shook his head helplessly, and raised his hand to knock on the door ,road:

"It's me, Zhu Maolin, may I go in?"

After he finished asking, he looked back at Baili Ningqing. The latter waved his fist at him and ground his sharp canine teeth. The threat was obvious, so he could only continue to smile wryly.

Baili Ningqing had to go to Changli's house to sit for a while every day for the past few days, but she drank three pots of tea just for a while, and Changli could only meditate and adjust her breath, at most she would open her eyes when she was talking, but the so-called The reply was just a few words counted on one hand.

At first she was a little bit tempered, patting the table and so on, but in the end she was completely dumbfounded, so she spent the whole day basking in the sun in the courtyard, never mentioning the matter of developing a relationship with her apprentice. She confessed to Changli, but she didn't want to let it go, instead she left the matter to Zhu Maolin.

"You are her master." Putting down the burden, she was very confident.

"She is only a Nascent Soul cultivator, what are you afraid of? This is not like you." Zhu Maolin laughed at her.

Usually being ridiculed, Baili Ningqing would definitely want to take it back, and at worst would have to bite him a few times, but this time he was uncharacteristically, and said with a sad face: "You don't know, I talked to her a few days ago, and what she said My throat is full of smoke, and she replied to me twice in total, once with "um" and once with "yes". Now, you better go, I can't learn sweet words."

"Who wants you to talk sweet words." Zhu Maolin was helpless, but Baili Ningqing made up his mind not to talk nonsense with him, so he couldn't help but push him to the front of Changli's house, with a stern face that meant that she wanted you to look good .

So he had to follow suit.

In the past, Baili Ningqing would just push the door open and go in. He has a meek personality, not as reckless as her, and since Changli is a woman, it would be too impolite for him to rush in, so he knocked on the door and asked again.

He originally thought that Chang Li would probably ignore her, but since he asked, it wouldn't be considered abrupt for her to go in when the time comes.

Unexpectedly, after a while, a cold voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Even though he had seen too many storms, he still showed a slightly surprised expression at this time, and he was stunned for a while before politely replying: "I'm sorry."

After that, he gently pushed open the wooden door.

It is getting late and the afterglow is not yet harvested. After the door is opened, the setting sun casts a large area of ​​almost gorgeous colors behind the threshold. The farthest piece quietly climbs to the white clothes of Zhuta, and outlines the silver threads to form a pattern. It was dyed as if it was hot.

The hanging waterfall of green hair was tied only by the same plain hairband. She closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes cast a light shadow on the white jade-like skin. Apart from her steady and long breathing, there was no other sound.

If this is Li Langxuan's puppet, the master craftsman will probably take it as an offense - his puppet can talk and laugh, how can it be so quiet.

Suddenly this idea came to Zhu Maolin's mind. He was going to enter the house, but he stopped when he saw the scene inside, stopped in front of the threshold, thought for a moment and said: "Ning Qing acted recklessly, but it will never harm you In my heart, I hope that I will not blame her in the future."

Chang Li opened her eyes, her dark pupils reflected a fire-like color, she replied softly, her voice was very low, her breathing was steady, except for that answer, she didn't move at all, she remained motionless like a clay statue.

Hearing this unemotional answer, Zhu Maolin was not uncomfortable, but looked at her with great interest, from the tip of her hair to the corner of her clothes, not missing a single inch, taking every detail into her eyes.

Looking closely at her eyes that were looking elsewhere, he seemed to have seen something, and there was a look of unbearable in his brows and eyes.He has lived for many years, has experienced all kinds of situations in the world, and can see much more than Baili Ningqing, who is obsessed with martial arts and whose cultivation level is not as good as his.The same calmness, but he saw confusion in it.

——Ignorance means no confusion, and no confusion means no worries.

Conversely, if one opens one's spiritual consciousness and recognizes all things, confusion and worry will inevitably arise from them.

He seemed to want to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask anything. Instead, he lowered his head and sighed lightly, then raised his head again, returning to his original gentle appearance, and said with a smile, "I know you're actually listening. Let's get straight to the point. Back then Ning Qing trapped Qianmianyan in the extreme north. Although we don't know why he escaped, since he was at large, he was bound to seek revenge from Ning Qing and you. To be honest, we learned about him today He intends to use you as a bait to lure him so that he can be captured alive. We will not continue to interfere with you when we capture Qianmianyan again, what do you think?"

Confiding the plan in one breath, he stared at Changli, as if he wanted to dig out more things from her eyes, and unconsciously began to think about why Wu Hui trained his apprentices in this way. He had thought about it for a long time before, but he never got it. clue.

Judging from Changli's current cultivation base, this method is indeed a quick success. Abandoning cognition is not hindered by demonic obstacles, but this method is also extremely risky. If he reads correctly, Changli seems to have entered the progress of cultivation base at this time very slow stage.

She drank his spiritual wine before and practiced Sanqing Guiyi, but she only increased her skill for about 100 years. This is of course normal for an ordinary monk, but Changli formed a Nascent Soul in less than 200 years It is strange that the progress of a person with ordinary qualifications is almost the same as that of a monk with ordinary qualifications.If this has been the case, Changli has almost no possibility of becoming a God of Transformation.Wu Hui had worked so hard, but it was more likely that the gain would outweigh the loss, which made him puzzled.

Before he could sort out his thoughts, he heard Chang Li calmly say: "Okay."

Without the resentment and unwillingness of being forced to be a bait, she accepted it calmly, but a trace of complexity appeared in Zhu Maolin's eyes.

——Grass, trees, mountains and rocks can still have a heart, let alone a person who is born with spiritual consciousness.

He has already noticed the crack, how can he be the same person who has no intention.

"Don't worry, we won't let you get hurt." He solemnly promised, and after a while, he felt that the atmosphere was too serious and a little uncomfortable, so he smiled and joked, "The apprentice who was finally recruited, if there is something wrong , Ning Qing will definitely break my leg."

After he finished speaking, he felt that the conversation had come to an end, he said "Farewell" and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard two words that were almost inaudible.

"Thank you."

He followed the prestige and saw the unattainable peace in those dark eyes, and couldn't help but say one more sentence:

"You should have a good rest. If you have any questions about the exercises, you can ask me."

Chang Li said "OK" slowly, and then he closed the door and left.Public account YuriAcgn free sharing

As soon as the door was closed, Baili Ningqing rushed up, poked him and said, "Isn't it, she can only say these few words."

Zhu Maolin shook his head and sighed softly, instead of joking with her as usual, he straightened her messy hair at the sideburns, and said with a gentle expression: "In fact, she has been listening all the time, and she hasn't ignored you, you are so You can continue to talk to her."

"It's weird that I'm the only one talking about it." Baili Ningqing hesitated, and Zhu Maolin blinked at her the next moment, and said with a smile: "I don't think your skin is thinner than her apprentice, why not?"

"Bah!" Baili Ningqing made a gesture to bite him, but he hugged him, noticing that he seemed to be in a strange mood, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Then, a voice that seemed to be sighing sounded from the top of my head: "It's still April, but I always feel that the autumn wind is approaching."

He faintly felt that there was something lurking under the peace, ready to show its fangs and sharp teeth.

It is always colder in the sky than on the ground. Fortunately, there is an enchantment in the jade to keep the cold wind out, and the inside is as warm as spring.

Zhong Mingzhu leaned on the cushion, staring at the exquisite pattern above his head in ecstasy, but recalled all the recent events in his heart over and over again.

Monster beasts suddenly appeared in the southwest, causing harm to the world, and now she accidentally hit and found the root cause.

Those storytellers spread rumors of treasures in Heishui Ridge to lure those rogue cultivators to look for treasures. Some kind of enchantment formation should be set up in the place where the treasures are buried, and when they dig out the treasures in the ground, they release the monsters inside.

Nine out of ten high-level monks look down on mortals, let alone go to mortal teahouses to listen to books, but few are willing to talk to mortals, so those storytellers have not been discovered.As for the casual cultivators who wandered around in the mortal world, their cultivation bases were generally not high, especially those who ran around hunting for treasures. After releasing the monsters unsuspectingly, there was only one dead end.

There are so many rogue cultivators in the world, and those who died of accidents abound, and if they go missing during the treasure hunt, they will not attract attention. Eight monsters at a time, just a few times, can release enough monsters to stir up chaos in the Southwest.

She didn't feel a particularly strong evil spirit in Heishuiling, presumably it was also managed by the people who arranged it.

But why did that person go to such lengths?

Although there are many monsters, but I heard that the highest level of cultivation is no more than Nascent Soul, and there is no need to alarm those real masters. All sects only need to send out a line of disciples to kill all these monsters.

Did that person release those monsters just to practice for the orthodox sect?Or is there something else hidden in Heishui Ridge——

His thoughts were interrupted at this point, it was Mo Qiyu, who cheered and said, "Zanyi City is coming soon."

After escaping from the claws of those monsters, until he returned to Yudao, he was always in a state of anxiety, for fear that those monsters would follow him, but now that he had reached his destination, he was finally relieved, his eyes glowed, It's like coming back to life.

Yanlue City is one of the four major cities in the world of comprehension. Unlike the other three cities, Yanlue has almost no output, whether it is spiritual mines, medicine fields, or raw materials for refining equipment. The world's most prestigious refining technique.

The Zhenbao Pavilion, which collects spiritual treasures from all over the world, was also created by the powerful weapon refiner of Yanyu City. At first, it was just to sell the magical tools that he forged. Over time, it gradually formed a scale and became an existence like an intermediary. The magic weapon refined is also sold for others.

The good and the evil have been fighting against each other for a long time, and the disputes are endless. If the hostile camps meet, they will basically face each other without saying a word. In this case, the neutral city of Yanluo can just provide them with a buffer zone. Zai.

The majestic city wall seemed to appear out of thin air. A moment ago, there was still a boundless sky in front of my eyes. In the blink of an eye, I saw the outline of the city, which was also invisible, emerging from behind the clouds.

Zhong Mingzhu tried his best to raise his head, and he didn't see the end of the city wall after his eyes sank into the clouds.

"Why so tall." She muttered.

The city wall of ordinary people is at most four or five feet high, and they are above the jade, they are already in the clouds, but the city wall goes over them and inserts straight into a higher place, as if it wants to break the dome.

"This is actually a trick to deceive the eye." Mo Qiyu explained, "The actual city wall is not that high, but there is indeed an enchantment, arranged like a city wall, to be majestic, and to remind the flying monks not to Hit that enchantment."

"What if we hit it?"

"The barriers of the Supreme Seven Profound Palaces all have attack circles, and Yanluo City is similar in comparison." These cities are all equipped with protective barriers.

"Yes..." Zhong Mingzhu nodded, seemingly carelessly, but in the blink of an eye he took out a small knife from the storage ring.

There are a lot of odds and ends in her storage ring, including all kinds of pots and pans. This small knife is used by her to cut pastries, and it has been a long time since it was used.

Mo Qiyu was about to lower the jade gun, and watched her wipe the knife with a handkerchief, and then discharge Zhu Mingtie. I don't know what her plan was, but before she had time to ask, she saw her throw the knife towards the city wall.

Although it was just an ordinary knife, but she injected spiritual power into it and strengthened it with Zhu Mingtie, the knife that was not considered sharp actually had a cold light, and rushed towards the city wall like a shooting star.When the tip of the knife touched the city wall, a ripple suddenly appeared on the surface of the city wall that seemed to be piled up of square bluestones, and then a slight cracking sound was heard, and in the blink of an eye, the knife was blasted to the ground. smash.

"What are you doing?" Mo Qiyu was so startled that her eyeballs almost fell out.

The city wall is like a door, it is a face, there is no one who slaps his face when he first arrives, he finally recovered from the fright in Heishuiling, and now Zhong Mingzhu gave him such a blow, and he was shocked again.

After a while, there was a loud shout from outside: "Who is here? How dare you disturb my city's enchantment!"

Two monks stopped Yu Luan, wearing the same clothes, and the word "Servant" flashed on their waist tags to reveal their identities. They turned out to be the guards of Yanluo City. They were obviously alarmed by Zhong Mingzhu's behavior just now and thought they were coming. Not being kind, both of them had sullen faces, as if they were about to strike at the next moment.

"What should I do..." Mo Qiyu unconsciously hid back, and looked at Zhong Mingzhu for help. Although the other party caused the trouble, but right now they are walking together, so-called ants strung on a straw rope Grasshopper, if one party causes trouble, the other party cannot escape.

"This is your little aunt's car, don't they recognize it?" Zhong Mingzhu was not in a hurry.

"My little aunt has lived in seclusion for hundreds of years. It is said that this jade stick was given to her by someone else. How could these guards recognize it?" Seeing the two guards both drawing out their swords and pointing at the jade stick, Mo Qiyu's tone became more and more anxious.

He was so startled, so useless. Hearing this, Zhong Mingzhu was still not in a hurry, and rolled his eyes at him disapprovingly, but in the next moment, he put on an innocent look and got down from the table. I cupped my hands at the two guards, and said in a soft voice: "Brothers, I was practicing the spell I just learned just now. I accidentally missed and crashed into your city. I'm very sorry."

Since we met, Mo Qiyu has mostly seen her fierce and rude side. When he saw Zhong Mingzhu get off the car, he thought she was going to quarrel with those people, or simply start a fight. He didn't expect her to be so polite On the other hand, this time, not only his eyes would fall out of shock, but his jaw would also fall off.

With Zhong Mingzhu's usual temperament, it is true that a fight is more likely, but when she first arrived, she still didn't know how the rules of this city were, and there were no big people around her to protect her, so she naturally restrained herself a lot.It has to be said that her gentle and weak appearance, coupled with her gentle apology, is enough to soften the hearts of most people.

The guards put down their guard immediately, and one of them smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Actually, we were also reckless, but fellow daoist, you should be more careful in the future."

As he spoke, he caught a glimpse of the jade certificate on Zhong Mingzhu's waist, and recognized her as a disciple of Tianyi Sect. His attitude was more polite, and he saluted respectfully, saying: "It turns out that she is a high-ranking disciple of Tianyi Sect. Disrespect and disrespect."

Afterwards, Zhong Mingzhu told them that the young man Yu Yushang was the nephew of Mo Chenxiang from the Supreme Seven Profound Palace, and the two guards hurriedly saluted him again.

There are hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the world of comprehension, of which there are only fifty or so who have transformed themselves into gods, how dare they be disrespectful.

Although the two young men in front of them are still relatively shallow in cultivation, one is the nephew of a master of transformation, and the other is a disciple of the first immortal sect. Even the owner of the Zhenbao Pavilion will treat each other with courtesy. No one dares to make a mistake.

After the two parties exchanged polite greetings, one of the guards looked at Zhong Mingzhu and said, "Did you, Daoist Zhong, come to find your fellow disciple?"

What fellow?

Zhong Mingzhu was taken aback for a moment, her first reaction was that her master was still trapped in Baili Ningqing, she had nothing to do and came to Yanyi City to look for something, and then realized that the same door that the guard said should have gone down the mountain with her Those brothers and sisters.

She has been with Changli all the time, and only after losing contact with Changli did she think of asking the two masters for help. As for the other disciples, she never thought about it at all.

Furthermore, the disciples of the Tianyi Sect went down the mountain to kill monsters, even if they had the opportunity, they had to ignore the mission of killing monsters, and Yanluo City was protected by an enchantment, and the guards were strict, and monsters would probably take a detour when they saw it. There will be monsters making trouble here, how did the monsters come here?

Could it be that she came to the auction - this was her first reaction, but thinking about Tian Yizong's family style, she felt that this was impossible.

Obviously, those who can show their identity as disciples of Tianyi Sect cannot go to the auction at this time, and those who can go to the auction can only be disciples who have gone down the mountain by themselves, and they cannot reveal their identity as disciples of Tianyi Sect.

After much deliberation, she couldn't think of who it would be, so she asked, "Is there any other Tianyi Sect disciple here?"

"Oh? So you don't know." The guard was also stunned, and then said, "It's probably a coincidence. A while ago, a wounded Tianyi sect disciple came here, and now he is recuperating in the posthouse. I thought you got it The news came to find them."

"I see." Zhong Mingzhu nodded.

Changli was wounded twice and healed directly on the spot by adjusting her breath. She thought that everyone else should be like this, and even though she herself was constantly alarmed, she was never in danger, so she didn't think of this.

"Where are they?" she asked. "I ought to go and see them."

Of course, this was not out of concern. This place is not too far from Heishui Ridge. She felt that the injuries of those disciples might be related to the monsters in Heishui Ridge. She felt that she might be able to get some clues, and she murmured in her heart:

It hurts like this, and it's too useless.
