There are bandits in Zhongshan

Bringing the words to him, Changli went back to his room to practice.

Liu Zhongmingzhu and Ruoye whispered to each other in the yard.

Ruoye looked suspiciously at the flat blue-black iron box in his hand, turned it over and over again, opened it and closed it, and muttered incessantly: "Is this really useful? If it is discovered, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

Zhong Mingzhu ignored her, but stretched out both hands with a smile, clenched fists with both hands, and asked her, "Which one of my hands do you think has the spirit stone?"

"Have both." Ruoye frowned, not knowing what Zhong Mingzhu was up to, "I also know that you have two in your left hand and only one in your right hand."

Cultivators are no better than ordinary people. Although they can't see it with the naked eye, they know the breath of spirit stones, magic tools and the like.

"What about this?" Zhong Mingzhu asked after throwing a handful of spirit stones into the iron box and closing the lid with a snap.

"It's just a few more..." The dismissive words stopped abruptly, and Ruoye stared at the iron box with a look of surprise on his face.

She saw that the lid was firmly attached to the box without a single gap, and she couldn't detect the aura in the box after several attempts.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Zhong Mingzhu proudly said: "Put that fan and the things from Wuquan Mountain in."

After Ruoye quickly put the things into the box, seeing Zhong Mingzhu begin to line up the four corners and six sides of the box with spirit stones, he asked curiously: "What is this?"

"You'll know in a few days." Zhong Mingzhu played tricks on her. She moved very fast, and it seemed that she had practiced many times, and she had already mastered it. After arranging the spirit stones, she moved again Dozens of talismans were pasted on it, and finally a mass of things wrapped in spiritual power was put into it.

Just as the box was closed, a stern voice suddenly came in:

"What are you doing?"

As soon as Zhong Mingzhu looked up, he saw Cheng Xun approaching with a calm face. Cheng Xun had never been too far away from the house, but this time he appeared suddenly, which caught Zhong Mingzhu by surprise.But after the fleeting shock, she quickly calmed down, and unhurriedly stuffed the box into Ruoye's hand, winked, and secretly sent a message to her to put it away quickly, and turned to Cheng Xun with a look on her face Innocent and innocent, he said with a smile: "Uncle Hui, Miss Ayu is telling me something about my hometown."

Yun Yi knew about the plan to lure Qian Mianyan, so if Ye Ming's ostensible identity was the suzerain's guest, and Zhong Mingzhu made up a name for her, even if she didn't like it, she could only bite the bullet and admit it.

Cheng Xun looked at the box suspiciously, and the distrust on his face was clear at a glance.Zhong Mingzhu secretly smiled, if she said just now that the box belonged to her, Cheng Xun would have asked her to open it to find out what happened, but if she said it belonged to a guest, Cheng Xun was polite, even if he was suspicious, he would not offend it.

Sure enough, Cheng Xun didn't ask about the box anymore, but asked her if Chang Li was there.

Hearing the word "Changli" being said so bluntly by him, Zhong Mingzhu felt that the uncle became more and more annoying, and when he lifted his chin, he unconsciously showed a rebellious attitude, but before he had time to say anything, he caught a glimpse of Changli pushing the door out.

"Senior Brother Cheng." Compared with Cheng Xun, Chang Li's indifferent attitude can almost be called friendly, "What do you want me for?"

"I received a letter from Senior Brother Suzerain, he has something to tell you." Cheng Xun handed a jade document to Changli, and said, "Also, I want to ask, do you have any news from my Master recently? "

Chang Li said: "Thank you, little uncle has not contacted me."

There is still no inheritance when talking about the two things, but Zhong Mingzhu has gotten used to it after listening to it a lot.

Cheng Xun's master was Longtian Li, and he hadn't seen her since that day. Zhong Mingzhu thought that she had gone to Hexu Mountain early, but what Cheng Xun meant seemed to be that something happened, and she couldn't help it. When I became curious, I cheered up and wanted to hear more.

But Changli just kept silent after answering these two sentences, and someone else would have to ask "what's wrong with little uncle", but she didn't understand reason at all, and the atmosphere fell into a stalemate for a while.

Seeing Cheng Xun being left hanging there, Zhong Mingzhu felt amused. She wanted to ask Changli a question, but then she thought that the uncle had a bad temper, and she might be reprimanded for talking too much, so she simply pretended to be deaf Make dumb.

On the contrary, Ruoye, seeing the estrangement between the senior brothers and sisters, neither left nor stayed for a while, unconsciously showing embarrassment.

"I have sent several letters to the master these days, but there is no response. I will ask the suzerain brother." In the end, it was Cheng Xun who broke the silence first, but later he changed the subject, "Cultivation can't get rid of one." "Qin" word, since you are a teacher, you should be diligent in supervising and urging, instead of letting your disciples do nothing and hope to do it yourself."

When Cheng Xun left the courtyard, Ruoye immediately asked in a low voice, "Does he not like your master?"

Hearing this, Zhong Mingzhu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, even Ruoye could see it, it was really obvious enough.

The first time she saw Cheng Xun, she felt that he was not as friendly as other senior teachers—at least on the surface.

After Changli came, Zhong Mingzhu became more and more sure of this conjecture. Although Cheng Xun did not neglect to take care of Changli, he always blew his beard and stared at her, but whenever he saw Changli, he would always give her some criticism.

Look at no one, rely on favor and pride, disregard etiquette and so on.

These accusations were not groundless. Although Zhong Mingzhu sneered at it, he knew very well that as a disciple of the orthodox sect, Changli could indeed pick out a lot of faults.

It is enough to copy books and think about it for several years just to treat anyone, including the elders, without false words.Although the etiquette and dogma are not clearly written into the sect rules, they are well-known secular rituals.The reason why Changli was able to go his own way was because of the favoritism of the three elders and Yunyi's good temper. Even if the others had some criticisms, they mostly turned a blind eye.

Cheng Xun was the first person to treat Changli like an ordinary disciple, Zhong Mingzhu was dissatisfied and a little funny, and after being funny, he was curious.

In private, she secretly asked Changli if she had offended Cheng Xun, but Changli said no. She only remembered meeting Cheng Xun once when she was a child, but she didn't even say a word. Can't pass it on.

Thinking about whether to find someone else to inquire about the festival between the two, Zhong Mingzhu turned his head and saw Chang Li's thoughtful expression, knowing that she must be thinking about the word "diligent in supervising", and hurriedly said: "I have Practice well."

Chang Li didn't make a sound, but Ruoye looked at her suspiciously, and muttered, "Why do I feel that you are really doing nothing all day..."

"Hey, he's just looking for an excuse to teach my master a lesson. It must be jealousy." Zhong Mingzhu dismissed it very much, "Those who are about the same age, those idiots who work hard, eight out of ten can't beat me."

"Why are you so thick-skinned?" Ruoye still hasn't gotten used to Zhong Mingzhu's unreasonable arrogance.

Zhong Mingzhu didn't bother to talk to her. Seeing that Changli became more and more silent, he felt that she might really be reflecting seriously, so he grabbed her sleeves without thinking about it, and persuaded softly: "Master, don't worry too much. It's okay to teach students in accordance with their aptitude." It’s a good recipe, besides, I’m really not idle, by the way, didn’t the suzerain master send a letter, let’s see if he has any urgent business.”

Ruoye was taken aback by that cute appearance from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay." Chang Li listened to her words, touched the jade slip lightly, and said later, "Senior brother heard about Young Master Ye's assassination, and asked me to guard it for a few days, just in case."

After finishing speaking, she went to the house to get the sword box and came out to go out. Fenjiao had been destroyed, and now there were three ordinary spirit swords in the sword box. Ordinary spirit swords could not withstand her sword energy and were easily damaged, so she took them all at once. The remaining three spirit swords were put into the sword box.Zhong Mingzhu saw that the appearance of those swords was ordinary, and he thought to himself: Destroying one of these spirit swords is not a long-term solution after all, and he should find a way to help her find a suitable sword in the future.

Although with Changli's cultivation base, twirling grass and flying flowers can be used as a sword, but its power is not as good as a spiritual weapon after all, and it will inevitably suffer a disadvantage when encountering a powerful opponent.

Ye Chenzhou already had some Tianyi Sect disciples staying behind, and Yun Yi sent the leader to leave just for an extra layer of protection.

In terms of cultivation level alone, Changli is not considered the top among Nascent Soul cultivators, but when it comes to actual combat, most of the Nascent Soul cultivators with higher cultivation levels than her are no match for her.What's more, there are barriers and guards in Yanluo City, as well as Li Langxuan and other cultivators who don't plan to go to Hexu Mountain. But open conflicts are not allowed in the city, and it is impossible for Qian Mianyan to venture into the Ye family's other hall.

Logically speaking, there is absolutely no danger in going away from here, but Zhong Mingzhu thought: If that Qian Mianyan is a lunatic, it will be difficult to deduce everything according to common sense.

But Ye Chenzhou is indeed in danger at this time, and Changli has no reason not to go. Seeing that Changli has reached the door, she suddenly remembered the thing in the storage ring, so she called Changli, pulled her aside and said: " Let's change the ring and change it back later."

If Ye is here, it is doubtful, she can't just take out the bamboo tube of Zhu Maolin, and simply exchange the rings of the two, take off her storage ring, think about it, and then use the magic talisman in it Take it out, and then put it into Changli's hand.

Chang Li was a little puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions. The only things she had used in the storage ring were those spirit swords. Now that all the swords have been taken out, the storage ring is dispensable to her. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether Zhong Mingzhu came on a whim or has other deep meanings.

After seeing off Changli, Zhong Mingzhu glanced at Changli's storage ring, and couldn't help being dumbfounded.

There are quite a lot of various spirit herbs and medicines in it, but there are not many spirit stones left. Presumably, most of them have been wasted for her in the past 100 years of engraving talismans and refining magic weapons.Practicing formations and spells is already very exhausting. What Zhong Mingzhu later learned were high-level formations. It was not easy to refine the 64 pieces of red gold Zhu Mingtie. Changli himself had never gone down the mountain to practice. After consumption, there is no channel to replenish, of course, it is nothing to eat.

Zhong Mingzhu couldn't help but imagine the day when all these belongings were squandered and she asked Changli for help, but the other party told her "no more" with a blank face.

That was amusing too—she laughed.

When Ruoye saw her inexplicably smiling happily, there was a chill on her back, and she asked cautiously, "Are you bewitched?"

Then Zhong Mingzhu said in a very kind tone: "It's time for you to go out, don't make the young master wait, it doesn't make sense."

The next day, the news that Jiang Linzhao plotted against Nanming came, and everyone was in an uproar.

Many people wondered whether this was related to the internal strife in Yunzhong City, but they still couldn't understand. Jiang Linzhao was Ye Chenzhou's close friend, but after all, he was an outsider, so it was inconvenient for him to get involved in the various disputes in Yunzhong City.Besides, although there are undercurrents in Yunzhong City, all factions are polite on the surface, and his move is undoubtedly a public shame.

Some people say that this is a dog jumping over the wall.

Who would have thought that the handsome and elegant young man would make Zhulang City's subordinates come out in full force, guarding all the checkpoints and ambush Nan Ming indiscriminately, and if the sneak attack failed, they would slander Nan Ming for stealing his Taoist skills,

His cultivation base was only inferior to Nanming's, and the two fought each other, and they could not tell the winner for several years. When the heads of the nearby sects found out about the matter and went to mediate, Jiang Linzhao began to pretend to be stupid, and the rest had no choice , had no choice but to detain him and Nan Ming together.

When Zhong Mingzhu heard it, his stomach ached from laughing.

Such unreasonable things are usually only done by evil cultivators. Zhong Mingzhu was worried that Jiang Linzhao, an upright gentleman, would be too concerned about his face and could not stop Nanming, but he did not expect that he would act like a rascal.

She felt that the next time she saw the gentle City Lord Jiang, she would definitely not be able to help but laugh out loud.But after thinking about it, Jiang Linzhao dared to ignore the prohibition and forcibly break into the Tiantai Peak's enchantment, maybe he is not a person who abides by the worldly etiquette in his bones, so it is not surprising that he can make such a move.

Ye Chenzhou was really lucky to have such a friend, but he didn't know how much of it was for Ye Chenzhou - and how much of it was for the long distance.

She squinted her eyes, and a cool smile emerged from the corners of her lips.

Pity.

The matter between Jiang Linzhao and Nan Ming was full of turmoil, and people talked about it everywhere.

"Maybe it's what Young Master Ye meant."

"How?"

"Look, Fairy Changli always runs to Young Master Ye recently. I heard that City Lord Jiang has close contacts with her..."

"Ah, I remembered when you said that. It seems that someone bet with [-] spirit stones, betting that Ye Chenzhou will clear his name within five days. Today is the third day, right?"

There are all kinds of rumors in the market, and there is a tendency to become more and more violent, especially Changli guarding Ye Chenzhou for several days, it is hard not to be suspicious, but she has Yun Yi's permission, and no one else can stop her.

Nan Sichu had a sullen face. He was in the largest restaurant in Yanyi, in a private room, surrounded by beauties. He should be in a good mood, but those joking words came through the door from time to time, destroying his good mood completely. .

A hand reached over, fingers more delicate than Baici lifted the jug, and poured him a full glass of wine.

"My lord, is there something bothering you?"

As soon as he raised his head and looked into the woman's moist eyes, his heart faltered suddenly. He clearly hadn't drunk it yet, but there was a hazy drunkenness in his eyes.

Ruoye sighed inwardly when he heard him chatting nonstop, and only hoped that this day would come to an end soon.

Although Nan Sichu's current cultivation base is not high, his status is not low.He is from the same lineage of Nanming, with high talent, he is close to forming alchemy in just over 100 years. his opinion.Total medium number: Qingyi Pavilion gl

After Zhong Mingzhu asked Ruoye to test him a few times, he made a decisive decision and took him as a breakthrough.

Ruoye made a disguise and only met Nan Sichu alone, while the others were all focused on Jiang Linzhao and Changli, no one paid any attention to Nan Sichu's youthful encounter.Ruoye's mind-disturbing spells are not very clever, but if Nan Sichu's cultivation base is higher, he can easily detect the bluntness of her words, but now he can only let her drink the magic potion.

After confirming that Qian Mianyan was about to lose his killing intent, Ruoye lightly hinted that Nan Sichu's benevolence would be harmed. At this time, Nan Sichu suddenly received a letter from his subordinates and had to go back immediately.

Not long after he came out, he felt a little regretful. He was thinking about how to invite the next meeting when he saw a treasure chest in front of him. He glanced at it and found that there were some elixir, jade documents, kerosene for refining tools, oak wood, etc. Raw material.

Not too precious, but not too shabby either.

"This is?" He was puzzled.

Ruoye patiently explained that this was her private property, and that she was about to leave Yan fluke, and before leaving, she prepared a small gift as a thank you for saving her life. Aptitude cannot be cultivated, so it is better to give it to someone who is destined than to waste it in your hands.

After some refusals, Nan Sichu finally accepted the treasure box. He intended to keep it, but the tone of the letter was anxious. Something important must have happened. He could only ask to let him see him off, and then left in a hurry without noticing it at all. The woman's expression of relief.

"Is it really okay..." After returning, Ruoye couldn't help asking Zhong Mingzhu.

"That depends on whether your curse is deceiving." Zhong Mingzhu was not nervous.

"It's called the Illusion Building, it's our family's unique illusion technique, it's just a foundation cultivator, don't underestimate me." Ruoye glared at her, and said angrily, "He must have completely forgotten it, unless someone else Use the soul search method on him, I am worried about your broken formation."

Her annoyance was exchanged for a chuckle and an increasingly lazy tone:

"If he can see it, you can count on your luck."

As soon as Nan Sichu returned to the mansion, he heard the disturbing news. Ye Chenzhou even threatened that he had found out the clues and that he would clean up his grievances in Heishuiling the day after tomorrow.

Nan Ming couldn't come back now, and after discussing with his staff, he couldn't help but ask Nan Si Chu what advice he had.He recalled those words burned into his mind, sneered, and asked one of them: "Did those people at Wuquan Mountain make any moves?"

"Indeed, most people have gone to the Black Water Ridge to wait."

Nan Sichu thought to himself that this was really the case, and the look of complacency in his eyes became more and more obvious, and he said loudly: "I thought that Ye Chenzhou was mostly bluffing, but actually wanted to escape."

Ye Chenzhou has been unable to fight back. The main reason is that he was trapped by various sects. If he can escape, it will not be difficult for him to find a way to wash away his stigma, even if it is created out of nothing.

"And we can't let him escape."

His decisive attitude won the approval of most people.They intended to take Ye Chenzhou's life, but they were unable to succeed because of the strict guards of Zongluo. It was more convenient for them to have Ye Chenzhou leave the city.

After discussing the specific details, it was already dawn, and everyone dispersed to make arrangements. After Nan Sichu returned to his room, he suddenly remembered the treasure box. He took the box out of the storage ring, put it on the table, opened it, and picked up a The jade ultimatum was stuck on his forehead, wanting to take a look at the exercises in it.

Unexpectedly, the jade document was empty, he let out a "huh" and was about to remove the jade document when his forehead suddenly felt hot.

A ray of spiritual light flew out from the jade document and entered his spiritual sea. The surprise in his eyes disappeared instantly, leaving him blank.

After an unknown amount of time, the voices of his subordinates could be faintly heard in his ears. Nan Si Chu stood up as if he had just woken up from a dream. He looked at the empty palms and frowned suspiciously.

— what was I doing just now?

Thinking like this, he looked at the empty desktop with a dazed look on his face.
