This reception feast did not last long.
After the banquet, Xu Yuxiu returned to the attic.
Zhang Yuanyuan also followed.
"Sister, are you worried about something?"
The reason why Xu Yuxiu asked this.
Also on the way back, I saw that Zhang Yuanyuan looked a little strange and seemed a little silent along the way.
Zhang Yuanyuan nodded, "When I came back this time, I found that the Zhang family is a little weird, but I can't tell what is weird. Junior Sister Xu, can you help me pay attention to it tomorrow?"
After saying that, she turned to look at Xu Yuxiu.
Making eye contact with her, Xu Yuxiu nodded, "I'll pay attention."
After receiving the affirmative answer, Zhang Yuanyuan felt more at ease.
"Then Junior Sister Xu, you should rest early. I will take care of the rest."
After saying that, she left the attic without staying any longer.
weird.
Xu Yuxiu recalled the scene during the reception banquet.
The weirdest thing is probably Zhang Yuanyuan's second uncle.
His words and deeds looked like he was going to have a direct showdown.
Although he was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, he must have the confidence to dare to behave like this in front of Zhang Yuanyuan, who was at the eighth level.
I believe this, Zhang Yuanyuan has also seen it.
Otherwise, it is estimated that she would have already taken action against Uncle Zhang when she received Feng Yan.
Before everything is clear, it's better not to break your skin.
This way at least there is a chance to find loopholes.
Xu Yuxiu can only think like this now.
The next day, early morning.
Under the service of the maid, Xu Yuxiu washed up and prepared to go out.
That maid was sent by Zhang Yuanyuan. It was said that she had been her personal maid since she was a child, and her name was Qiaoer.
Xu Yuxiu was also relieved about this.
"Xianzi Xu, do you want to eat something before going out?"
Qiaoer asked.
Xu Yuxiu shook his head, "We monks don't care about this anymore, so there is no need to prepare."
After saying that, she walked out the door.
Outside the attic, she saw Uncle Fu as soon as she went out.
Under the leadership of Uncle Fu, Xu Yuxiu quickly came to a meeting hall.
There were not many people in the meeting hall. Uncle Zhang and Zhang Yuanyuan were both there.
But there is still one person.
It was a casual cultivator wearing Taoist robes and with a hooked nose.
Xu Yuxiu noticed that Zhang Yuanyuan's complexion seemed a little ugly.
After seeing Xu Yuxiu's arrival, Uncle Zhang laughed and said: "Xianxu, I'm sorry for you. This is a formation master that my Zhang family hired a few days ago. His name is Ying Gouzi. He is quite famous among casual cultivators. It is said that You have reached the level of an intermediate formation master in terms of formations, you two can communicate with each other."
When Xu Yuxiu heard this, he looked at Ying Gouzi and was a little hesitant.
She could clearly feel the disdain this Eagle Hook had for her.
"Second Master Zhang, what do you mean by this? You have obviously invited me, so why invite others!"
Ying Gouzi stood up immediately, without even looking at Xu Yuxiu, and directly questioned Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang laughed and sighed: "It's my fault for not making it clear to fellow Taoists in advance. This Fairy Xu is from Taixuan Sect, and her attainments in formations are quite extraordinary. She is almost as famous as fellow Taoists. , this time with the help of you two, we have arranged a protective formation for my Zhang family, I believe we can capture it!"
"No need!"
Ying Gouzi shook his Taoist robe: "This time I am enough alone. If there is one more person who gets in the way, I'm afraid there is a possibility of failure!"
"this..."
Uncle Zhang looked embarrassed.
"Why, can't Mr. Zhang make the decision?" Yinggouzi was quite dissatisfied when he saw the embarrassed look on Mr. Zhang's face.
"Of course he can't make the decision. It's not his turn to make the decision in the Zhang family!"
Zhang Yuanyuan stood up at this time, "As a casual cultivator, how advanced are you in formations? How dare you underestimate me, a disciple of Taixuan Sect!"
"Who are you? Is the Zhang family in charge now?"
Ying Gouzi looked at Zhang Yuanyuan with disdain in his eyes, "So what about the disciples of Taixuan Sect? I have been studying formations for more than ten years, but am I still no match for a little girl! How advanced can she be in formations?"
"you!"
Zhang Yuanyuan just wanted to say something more.
Uncle Zhang hurriedly appeared and laughed, saying: "Fellow Taoist Yinggouzi, this is my eldest brother's only daughter. She is spoiled by freedom. I hope you don't mind. Since neither of you are willing to cooperate, I have a suggestion." .”
"Oh, what's your suggestion?" Ying Gouzi asked.
Xu Yuxiu said nothing.
From beginning to end, she didn't say a word, but she was said to be unwilling to cooperate.
She didn't care, she just wanted to see what the second uncle wanted to do.
"Without him, since both of you claim to be intermediate formation masters, how about we compete with each other in formations? Whoever wins will be used by our Zhang family." Uncle Zhang said with confidence.
"Okay!" Ying Gouzi agreed with confidence.
"What do you think, Fairy Xu?" Uncle Zhang asked with a smile.
Xu Yuxiu glanced at him and said, "I'm free."
"That's it, then it's easy to solve." Uncle Zhang nodded.
"What a comparison!" Ying Gouzi turned to look directly at Xu Yuxiu and was about to start the competition.
"Fellow Taoist Yinggouzi, don't be anxious."
Uncle Zhang spoke again at this time, "I do have a test method, it's very simple."
"Oh, let's talk about it." Yinggouzi's eyes moved to Uncle Zhang again.
Xu Yuxiu also looked at him.
"How about using the formation that my Zhang family will set up this time as the content of the competition?" Second Uncle Zhang suggested.
"Then take out the formation diagram and take a look!"
Ying Gouzi seemed quite eager and didn't want to talk too much.
Seeing this, Uncle Zhang nodded and took out a formation diagram made of animal skin from his storage bag.
Then, he unfolded the formation diagram.
At this time, Xu Yuxiu knew what kind of formation the Zhang family was going to arrange.
I saw a few big characters marked on the formation map: Golden Gate Lock Stone Formation.
As soon as the formation diagram was unfolded, Ying Gouzi couldn't wait to step forward and start observing.
He looked at it extremely seriously, scanning every corner of the formation diagram without missing a single point.
Xu Yuxiu was not so anxious, so he sat down aside first.
Zhang Yuanyuan came to Xu Yuxiu's side and asked nervously: "Junior sister Xu, how sure are you of beating him?"
Xu Yuxiu shook his head: "I don't know."
She said it matter of factly.
Zhang Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she heard her answer, "Junior sister Xu, you must win against him, otherwise..."
Immediately, Zhang Yuanyuan did not speak anymore, but used her spiritual consciousness to transmit the message: "This array map was originally kept by my father personally, but now it has fallen into the hands of my second uncle. This matter must not be simple!"
When Xu Yuxiu heard her words, she nodded and then stood up to observe the formation diagram.
She and Ying Gouzi stood on separate sides, not disturbing each other, each watching his own business.
Xu Yuxiu glanced at the Golden Gate Lock Stone Formation.
This formation has a total of forty-nine formation nodes, and the connection between each node is quite close and complex.
Just one glance can make people who don't understand the formation feel dizzy, as if they are reading a book from heaven.
While Xu Yuxiu was observing the formation diagram, he also glanced at the Eagle Hook.
I saw that the other party seemed to be immersed in it and was observing with seriousness.
She stopped paying attention to Ying Gouzi's situation.
Finally, after about two hours, the two of them had finished observing the entire formation.
Everyone gets something.
