What did Qingzi want to do when he first came to Beicheng? There is no such statement in the plot in the original book, right?Maybe it's time to stop following the plot.While analyzing the current situation in his mind, Gu Ran walked aimlessly forward.

"Little uncle, we checked this place last night, don't we need to look again?" Li Luo, who was walking behind Gu Ran, glanced around for a week, and suddenly felt familiar.

Gu Ran came out of his distraction, according to Li Luo's reminder, they did pass through this place last night, and there was nothing unusual about it.

"Sorry, I was just distracted for a while, let's change the direction... huh?!" Just as he was talking to Li Luo, Gu Ran took a step in another direction but almost tripped over the stone under his feet.

"Little uncle, are you okay? What is this, a broken rock!" Li Luo's words made Gu Ran feel a little embarrassed. After all, the fault of tripping over this matter is really not a rock... It was just because he was not careful just now. tripped over.

But Li Luo didn't think too much about it, his eyes were attracted by the stone that almost tripped Gu Ran, it looked like an ordinary stone, the upper part was clean gray white, but from The lower part that was dug out of the soil was an abnormal dark red color, which looked ugly.

"Little uncle, why are the upper and lower parts of this stone different in color?" Li Luo was puzzled.

Gu Ran also squatted down with Li Luo, looked at the appearance of the stone and explained, "Many stones are like this, there is water vapor in the soil, and the part buried in the soil will usually be darker after being dug out..."

At the end of the words, Gu Ran's voice gradually quieted down. He stared at the dark red color of the lower part of the stone and fell into thought. This color is a bit strange.

Gu Ran turned his head and looked at the soil where the stone was just now. The sunken place looked very soft, and the part of the stone that was turned out was also dark red in color, with a faint fishy smell.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong, little uncle?" Li Luo probed towards Gu Ran's line of sight.

"Yes, the color of the soil here is not right, it feels a bit strange." Gu Ran stood up, took out the Yunshuang sword, and cut open the ground under their feet from the sunken place. Stopping, the soft ground was cut out to a depth of nearly ten feet, and the features inside were beginning to emerge.

"This!!!! What is this!!!" Li Luo exclaimed.

Gu Ran gasped as he looked at the deep ravine that had been cut out, there was blood-red liquid under this layer of ground!If I didn't guess wrong, these things should be blood, right? !

The stench spread out with the dew on the ground layer, and the originally peaceful place instantly became disgusting.

"Go and call Nephew Li Lang and the others over, I have a hunch—" The land within a radius of ten miles is probably the same.

"Woooooo!" The voice came from nowhere, it seemed that the illusion of this area had been destroyed, and the willow trees began to tremble wildly.

"Little uncle, be careful!"

Dozens of dark red willow branches broke out from the bloody soil, and entangled in Gu Ran's direction.

When Li Luo's voice sounded, Gu Ran's figure quickly dodged the dark red willow branches, and then slashed at those things that were still persistently rushing towards him with a backhand sword.

The sword energy vibrated, and the surrounding spiritual force field was vacuumed for a moment.Those willows froze for a moment.

"Hey!" The sound of the branch being cut off sounded, and the willow juice was also scarlet, splashing and corroding a scorched hole on the ground.After the broken branches fell to the ground, they quickly took root and re-growth, and the willow branches that grew tirelessly continued to wrap around in Gu Ran's direction.

In a short time, several miles around turned into a paradise with deep roots of these weird willow branches. The dark red branches continued to increase, covering the sky and making the surrounding environment even darker.

"It seems that some kind of formation has been disturbed. These willows have mutated." Gu Ran frowned. Coupled with some things buried in the ground, he had a bad feeling.

"Little uncle, let's get out of this weird place first, these monsters are making such a big noise, big brother and they must be rushing here too." Li Luo suggested.

"Yes." Gu Ran noticed that Li Luo's face was a little abnormally red, and the sweat was dripping down his forehead, as if he was suppressed here and felt very uncomfortable.

Gu Ran himself is a Nascent Soul cultivator, this weird willow forest has no other influence on him except that the willow branches are more difficult to tangle.But Li Luo, who had built a foundation and cultivated the base, was different. Li Luo's expression seemed a little out of place, but there must be no trouble.

"I'll use my sword energy to open the way later, you follow me closely." Gu Ran told Li Luo whose face was starting to turn red.Seeing Li Luo nod, Gu Ran took the Yunshuang sword and chopped at those mutated willow branches.

The water aura spread out from Gu Ran's surroundings, and wherever the sharp sword energy passed, broken branches scattered all over the ground.But before Gu Ran and Li Luo could take a few steps, the broken branch that fell on the ground grew rapidly to block their way.

"Hiss..." Li Luo, who was following behind Gu Ran, staggered suddenly and took a deep breath.

"Li Luo!" Gu Ran turned around, only to see Li Luo frowning tightly while clutching his left arm, and his blushing face began to turn a little pale.

"No...it's nothing, uncle, I was accidentally scratched by a willow branch..." Then a piece of flesh was corroded.Li Luo concealed the last half of the sentence and didn't say it. He was dragging his uncle back, so it's better not to distract him now.

Gu Ran looked at the dark red blood that started to slid down Li Luo's arm, and couldn't help but his face darkened, and his tone became even more serious, "Let me see the wound, what's the matter? Stretch out your left hand, and take your right hand away!"

"It's okay, uncle, be careful of those monsters around you..." Li Luo was still foolishly evading, but Gu Ran was dying of anxiety, took out a fixed body amulet from the Qiankun bag, and stuck it on Li Luo's forehead. Then he carefully inspected Li Luo's wound.

Fortunately, Li Luo's wound was not particularly deep.The skin scratched by the willow branch has already started to turn black and blue, and the rotten breath comes from the wound, and it is still slowly expanding.

Gu Ran made a decisive decision, directly sealed Li Luo's wound with spiritual power, and scraped off the carrion on the surface of the wound. Li Luo's brows were wrinkled in pain, but he still didn't cry out.

"Be patient, this willow branch is probably contaminated with a strange poison. If you don't scrape it off, it will be bad if it gets infected." Gu Ran comforted Li Luo in a low voice, and now there is no better condition to deal with Li Luo. the wound.

However, after such a delay, the mutated willow branches have already surrounded them inseparably. If there was a breakthrough point before, it may be difficult for them to move forward now.

"Little Master Uncle, I'm sorry..." Li Luo, who knew she was lagging behind, lowered her head in frustration.

Gu Ran couldn't hold back rubbing the top of the boy's head, and said soothingly. "Little idiot, first of all we are of the same clan. Besides, you are a nephew and I am an uncle. I should take care of you. Why do I apologize?"

"Thank you, uncle..." Li Luo looked at the water-blue spiritual power cover that protected the two of them, his eyes were a little hot. If only he was stronger, he wouldn't be holding back his uncle all the time.

"I'll try another method later to see if I can break through the blockade of these willow branches. When you hear me say run, don't have any hesitation, just rush out to the gap where you broke through. These willow branches are so desperate If they want to block us, they probably won’t be able to do anything if they leave this area. Do you understand?”

"Understood." Li Luo nodded after listening to Gu Ran's words, holding the natal spirit sword tightly in her right hand, and her fingertips turned white with force.

Seeing that his nephew was ready, Gu Ran directly used his spiritual power to force out a drop of his blood.

The bright red blood essence dripped onto Yunshuang's sword blade, and the water spirit power of Yunshuang's sword body instantly surged - the water condensed into frost, and it was frozen for thousands of miles.

The cold breath emanated from the Yunshuang sword, and the moisture in the air quickly condensed into frost, and then dispersed finely around the Yunshuang sword.It froze the dirty place with a radius of ten miles, and those dark red willow branches like rotten maggots.

Li Luo stared at this scene dumbfounded, the cold frost fell and stuck to his forehead, this is the real temperature of frost and snow.But... this is the famous skill of Master Xuanlan, and it should only be used by the monks of the Ice Spirit Root. Why can the little master be able to use it?

Young Master Uncle is really amazing...

Even if Li Luo has a thousand words of sighs, at this moment they can only be gathered into the most straightforward words in his heart.

After successfully freezing this space, Gu Ran flipped the hand holding Yunshuangjian, and the blade pointed directly at the area in front of them. The sharp sword energy swept across thousands of feet. When the ice layer broke, frost and snow It was still cold, but the sunlight penetrating through the huge gap illuminated the space blocked by the mutated willow branches.

"Go!!" Seeing that the gap had been broken, Gu Ran's scolding sound sounded, awakening Li Luo who was still distracted by him.

As Gu Ran said, Li Luo used his whole body's spiritual energy and rushed towards the gap without looking back.

In just a short moment, the willow branches that were sealed by frost and snow began to move after the initial solidification and immobility, and then there was a gap in the self-contained ice layer.

"Pfft!" A thick willow branch broke through the ice first, and quickly swept towards Li Luo who was about to escape from the gap.

Li Luo gritted his teeth, and was about to turn around and slash the monster with his sword, but he heard Gu Ran's voice following him, "Don't stay, just rush out."

"Puff puff puff——!" More and more willow branches began to break through the ice seal from the crack, entwining towards the two of them one after another, and the original gap became smaller and smaller.

Seeing that the gap is about to be re-sealed by willow branches!

"Sword!" Gu Ran's indifferent words sounded, the Yunshuang sword made a low tremor, and hundreds of sword lights burst out.

"The most frightening thing about your little uncle's talent is not the spiritual roots and sword body, but his sword intent. Although he did not inherit the fierce and powerful aura of your master Xuanlan, he must Murderous."

The willow branches in front of him were crushed like fine powder by hundreds of sword lights, and the rot and stench were also diluted.When Li Luo got out of the gap, he suddenly remembered the words that his master taught him with his little uncle.

"At such an age, he can comprehend such a powerful sword intent that harmonizes with himself. When you play around every day, when will you be able to catch up to one ten-thousandth of your little uncle?"

"Little Martial Uncle!!" After escaping, Li Luo came back to his senses like a dream, subconsciously looking for Gu Ran's figure.He is safe, what about the little uncle? !

"Well, here it is."

Gu Ran's voice came from the other side, the plain voice was a little tired, but also relaxed like the rest of life after a catastrophe.

The sun fell on the young man's soft hair, and there was a gentle and moist breath between his brows. The Yunshuang sword in the young man's hand had already withdrawn, and he looked like a gentleman like jade.It seemed that the swordsmanship formed by the murderous aura just now was just Li Luo's illusion.

"Uncle Master, you are really—!" Li Luo couldn't find any better adjectives for a moment of excitement after coming back to his senses, and finally shouted abruptly, "It's really amazing!!"

"Well, Li Luo is also very good. If I wait a little longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out." Gu Ran looked at Li Luo's excited eyes, and boasted back with a smile.

After hearing this compliment, Li Luo was a little embarrassed, "I am the uncle's oil bottle. If it weren't for the uncle, I would have been eaten by those weird willow branches..."

"It's because your cultivation level is not enough. When you become stronger in the future, you will definitely be able to cut willow branches like chopping vegetables." Gu Ran comforted.

"It's so difficult to cut vegetables... I can't always cut the vegetables thinly like those uncles..." Li Xiaoluo muttered softly.

"Pfft ha ha..." Gu Ran couldn't help laughing, it turned out that this little nephew really tried to chop vegetables.

When the two of them had just survived the catastrophe, Li Lang and other disciples of the Xuanjian Sect also rushed over.

"I've met Uncle Yunran." After Li Lang's eyes touched the two people who were safe and sound, his tense face had such a relaxed expression.

"Well, you are here." Gu Ran nodded, then turned and pointed to the willow forest that was gradually waking up from the ice to explain the reason for this change.

"Uncle Yunran and Li Luo are the best. Since these monsters can only cause harm to one side and cannot go out of the willow forest, you can gather the strength of the disciples of Xuanjianzong to temporarily form a sword array, its seal."

Li Lang only thought for a while, and found a way to temporarily deal with these mutated willow forests.It will take some time to completely eradicate it. In order to prevent this willow forest from becoming a monster again before finding a way to completely eradicate it, it is safer to seal it first.

There are many kinds of sword formations in Xuanjianzong, the most powerful and taboo is the "Heaven and Earth Sacrifice and Killing Formation", which has been dusted again since the fall of the former master Xuan Chu.The sword array used for sealing is not as expensive as the killing array, and it is enough to form an array with the strength of ten people.

Under Li Lang's command, after the sword formation was formed, Li Lang who was standing at the eye of the formation hesitated for a moment, but still called Chu Shaoqing over.

"These monsters are evolved from willow trees. Brother Chu, you are the root of the fire spirit. Use fire to overcome wood, so as to stimulate the eyes of the formation and maximize the power of the sword formation."

"Okay." Chu Shaoqing nodded, following what Li Lang said, his eyes began to arouse.

The red fire spiritual power was transmitted from the eye of the formation, and then rushed towards each formation point quickly.After the fire spiritual power reached the formation point, the entire sealing formation was activated.

"Okay, let's go back and discuss it first. I'm afraid we can no longer hide what happened today from the public, so we have to tell the master of the North Gate." Li Lang said to everyone.

"The willow grove is so strange, I'm afraid it will eat up all those who came to the North City at night, and it will return to a harmless appearance during the day. If Uncle Yunran didn't find it in time today, I don't know how many people this monster will harm. .” A Xuanjianzong disciple sighed.

"Yes, but Junior Brother Li Luo, how did you find out that there is something wrong with Liulin? We checked so many times before, but we didn't find anything strange about Liulin." Another Xuanjianzong disciple finished his second, and his curiosity lost again. on the cause of the incident.

"Ah, the question is, it's not sunny today, so I searched the suburbs with Uncle Yunran..." Li Luo began to talk.

"Junior brother, you can just tell us the main points." The disciple of Xuanjianzong showed a helpless look of "Why is this again?"

"The point is that my uncle and I were searching in the suburbs, and then my uncle accidentally tripped over a stone..."

"Junior brother, junior brother, let's talk about the important point... Forget it, maybe my cultivation level at this level may not be able to comprehend this matter thoroughly, so I won't ask."

"Excessive! What I said is not the point!!" Li Xiaoluo exploded.He simply stopped talking.

Seeing this, Gu Ran bent his lips, and told what happened after Li Luo finished speaking. Li Luo's adjectives and prospects were too long, which always made people feel that he missed the point.

"It seems that those soils have turned into hot springs that breed monsters. I just don't know who made such an evil method." After listening to the cause and effect, Xiao Rang was thoughtful.

"Yeah, Moxiu is really hateful." Li Luo's object of hatred still stayed on Moxiu's body.

Gu Ran opened his mouth, wanting to say that these things should have nothing to do with Moxiu, but he swallowed the words without evidence.
