In the morning light, a figure appeared on the cliff.
He glanced at the morning light on the horizon, then at the silent Fengxiang Valley, and hurriedly walked to the cave and sat down, breathing heavily.
This man was wearing a red Taoist robe. He was in his twenties or thirties. He was Yu Ye in disguise. He rushed back to Guanque Pavilion before dawn.
But the lingering fear is still lingering.
When I visited Fengxiang Valley at night, both Sushui Pavilion and Tianxing Pavilion were unguarded. I thought the same was true for Tianxin Pavilion, but unexpectedly there were four Qi Refining masters hiding in the secret. Not only that, there is also a foundation-building senior sitting guarding Tianxin Pavilion. Fortunately, it was quiet at night, so the disciples on duty relaxed their guard. Otherwise, he would never have discovered the secret of the stone niche. But it still shocked him at the time, and he froze in place for a long time without daring to move. It wasn't until the door of Tianxin Pavilion was closed and the surroundings returned to silence that he quietly left step by step. But while he was lucky, he was still afraid.
Fortunately, neither the disciples of the Suzaku Sect nor the old man who built the foundation could see through his invisibility technique. The so-called fear is that there are formation restrictions all around the Tianxin Pavilion and the stone niche. If he continues to take a step forward, his whereabouts will be exposed and the entire Tianming Mountain will be alarmed.
What a thrill!
Yu Ye secretly shook his head and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Although the night exploration of Fengxiang Valley was thrilling, it also confirmed one of his conjectures.
It is inferred from the patrol map that Tianxin Pavilion and Tianxing Pavilion should be related to formations. He thought about starting with the formation and purchased a large number of talismans in advance. But he didn't dare to make a conclusion, so he explored Fengxiang Valley at night. As expected, Tianxin Pavilion is actually the center of the Tianming Mountain Formation. As long as the formations of Tianxing Pavilion and Tianxin Pavilion are destroyed, the Tianming Dharma Banquet at Zhuque Terrace can be destroyed.
Well, that’s it!
The next step is to consider relevant strategies, refine methods of doing things, recruit capable people, and do an earth-shattering event!
When Yu Ye thought of this, he couldn't help but feel passionate. He turned over his hand and took out a jar of wine, picked it up and drank heartily.
When he was drunk, he turned his head and looked into the distance.
Just then, I saw the morning glow in the sky, like a fire, a red sun leaping over the sea of clouds, and the sky and the earth suddenly glowed, and the glow was bright and bright for thousands of miles...
…
Outside town.
Under the shade of the forest edge.
Leng Chen sat cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was breathing in and out, but he would glance up from time to time, sighing slightly and looking uneasy.
As dusk falls, the scorching heat gradually fades away, and monks from all walks of life hiding in the forest emerge one after another to welcome the coolness of the summer night.
"Fellow Daoist Leng, why don't you go to town and have a drink?"
Yu Tianshi, Shang Gong and Shang Jiang also walked out of the forest.
Perhaps it was because they had made a lot of spiritual stones during this period, the master and the disciple all looked very proud of themselves.
Leng Chen shook his head.
Master Yu Tianshi was considerate and said: "Drinks here are expensive, and ordinary people can't afford them!" He looked around and asked curiously: "Where's fellow Taoist Yu, why haven't you seen anyone for so many days?"
"Oh, he has returned to Tianfeng City."
"He took advantage of me last time, and I still want to settle the score with him!"
Master Yu Tian led his two disciples and walked into the town in a swagger.
"Senior Brother Leng, will Junior Brother Yu come as promised?"
Another person came out of the forest, it was Bian Ji.
Leng Chen didn't answer, just stared in the direction of Tianming Mountain. But after a while, he suddenly stood up and said with relief: "Junior brother is here, let's go to the old place——"
Bian Ji couldn't ask more questions and nodded in understanding.
The so-called old place is a forest in the west of the town.
When the two of them reached the depths of the forest, someone had already arrived, but they did not change their clothes. They were still dressed as Suzaku Sect disciples.
"Senior Brother Leng, Senior Brother Bian—" Leng Chen hurriedly created a restraint to seal the surrounding area, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Junior Brother, you kept me waiting very anxiously!"
Bian Ji cupped his hands and said, "Junior brother Yu, thank you for your hard work!"
Yu Ye arrived as promised.
Seven days after sneaking into Tianming Mountain, he slipped down the mountain again. After seeing the two senior brothers, he ignored the politeness and said bluntly: "Let's talk about Tianfeng City first!"
The three of them sat together.
"...I returned to Tianfeng City the day before yesterday. I heard that there was a clue here. Mo Xiao was very pleased. If there is any progress in the future, it will not be too late to report to her!"
Leng Chen's reply was concise and to the point.
Bian Ji took out a ring and handed it to Yu Ye, and said: "Two hundred Lihuo Talismans and five hundred kilograms of fire oil were bought by Liang Qiao, Jiang Pu and Cangzhu with all their means, but they were not bought by Yu Ye. Uncle Mo is asking someone to find the thunder stone that junior brother needs."
The ring contains a thick stack of talismans and more than a hundred clay pots filled with kerosene.
Yu Ye put the ring away and said, "I have found a replacement for the thunder stone. Please tell Uncle Mo that you don't have to worry about it!"
Bian Ji nodded and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Junior brother Yu, what is the use of these fire-making things?"
"Senior Brother Bian, let me discuss this matter another day."
Yu Ye glanced at Leng Chen and said, "I plan to go down the mountain at noon today. Who wants to meet the senior Xianmen patrolling the mountain. I have to sneak out of the mountain gate in the evening, but I don't dare to stay here for a long time."
"Isn't it a midnight patrol?"
"The Tianming Dharma Feast is approaching day by day, and the security on the mountain is getting tighter."
"What if you can't go down the mountain?"
"At the end of this month and the eighth day of July, no matter what happens, I will go down the mountain. During this period, the two senior brothers must do what the younger brother said."
"Yeah, yeah, just ask!"
"Junior brother Yu, it doesn't matter if you say it!"
From Yu Ye's words, it is not difficult to imagine the difficulties and dangers he encountered at this time. Leng Chen and Bian Ji knew the pros and cons and did not dare to take it lightly.
"Before the end of the month, please invite Senior Brother Liang Qiao and Jiang Pu to come and meet me. And on the eighth day of next month, I want to meet Senior Uncle Mo."
"I will return to Tianfeng City overnight."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Bian!"
"Junior brother, I don't understand..."
"I almost forgot, where is the four hundred spiritual stones that Uncle Mo owes me?"
"This... it would be safer if you ask her in person!"
"That's fine!"
Yu Ye stood up, but said no more. He avoided the restriction and walked quietly away through the forest.
Leng Chen and Bian Ji looked at each other.
"What does Junior Brother mean by summoning Qiao Liang and Jiang Pu?"
"Senior Brother Leng should know his plan."
"Hey, you listened just now. He kept his words to himself. Who knows what he is going to do..."
Yu Ye went down the mountain for the second time, coming and going in a hurry.
As the Tianming Dharma Feast approaches, Tianming Mountain has stepped up its vigilance. If he does not want to waste all his efforts, he can only be more careful.
That night, Bian Ji returned to Tianfeng City to deliver the news.
Leng Chen continued to guard the woods outside the town, waiting for Yu Ye to return again.
Even Bian Ji didn't know about Tianming Fayan's strategy. This was a warning from his junior brother, in order to avoid leaking the news...
Before I knew it, it was the end of June.
early morning.
The scenery of Guanque Pavilion remains the same.
Yu Ye sat in front of the cave entrance, holding his chin in his left hand and holding a picture slip in his right hand. His eyes were half open and half closed, as if he was immersed in the tranquility of the morning.
And a moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes again, lowered his head to look at it, and pointed with his fingers.
There was a handful of grass stems and a few small stones placed in front of him, vaguely resembling the situation in Fengxiang Valley, which contained not only Sushui Pavilion, but also Tianxin Pavilion and Tianxing Pavilion, as well as various checkpoints on the mountain.
Ever since he visited Fengxiang Valley at night, he had been imagining various dangers and countermeasures, weighing the pros and cons, and trying to formulate a sound strategy. Who wants to deduce and calculate for many days, but he is still not sure at all. Today is June 30th. If we cannot make the final decision, not only will all our hard work be in vain, but the changes that will follow will also be even more difficult to face.
Yu Ye fiddled with stones and grass stems, his eyes twinkling slightly.
There is no perfect strategy in this world, so why bother looking forward and backward, worrying about gains and losses.
It has always been a fight to death and survival in desperate situations. In this case, why not go back with great vigor. In short, everything depends on human effort, and the outcome depends on the wind and rain.
Yu Ye thought of this and waved his sleeves.
Stones rolled down the cliff, and grass stems flew into the air in the wind.
Yu Ye raised his eyes and glanced, a flash of arrogance flashed in his expression, then he raised the picture slip in his hand and looked at it silently.
In the past few days, although my thoughts were disturbed, I continued to practice and tried the method of spiritual rubbing...
It's almost noon, and the sun is hot. The rocks on the cliff were also burned by the sun and turned into smoke.
At this moment, a figure stepping on a sword came closer and closer.
Yu Ye pretended not to see him and just lowered his head to ponder his drawings.
The man who stepped on the sword was an old man. Seeing that the disciples who were on duty were working diligently, he did not bother him and continued to patrol the mountain.
Yu Ye raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief.
Every day is so dangerous, like walking on the tip of a knife, stepping on life and death, frightening every step!
He looked in the direction where the old man left for a moment, then disappeared out of sight...
A moment later, he appeared on the cliff.
In order to avoid the five levels, five armor-piercing charms are consumed each time. One trip would consume ten armor-piercing charms, which was one of the reasons why he didn't want to go down the mountain easily.
There was no one around, so I went down the ladder.
There were six disciples of the Suzaku Sect standing guard in front of the mountain gate, and the situation was no different from the past.
Yu Ye strode toward the mountain gate with his hands behind his back.
Suddenly I heard someone shout: "Stop!"
It was a man at the ninth level of Qi Refining, who stretched out his hand to stop him in front of the mountain gate.
Yu Ye raised his head and said arrogantly: "Why are you blocking the road?"
The man cupped his hands and said, "The master's sect has an order. The Heavenly Calling Dharma Banquet is about to take place. The disciples of the Suzaku Sect are not allowed to go out without authorization. Doesn't the junior brother not know this?"
"snort!"
Yu Zhi's head jumped, but he snorted coldly and said: "Of course I know, but I have to go out due to my responsibilities, so get out of the way-"
As he spoke, he suddenly exuded a powerful power that only a foundation-building expert could possess.
The man was slightly startled.
Yu Ye took advantage of the situation and moved forward. With the flash of light from the jade plaque on his waist, he had already passed through the mountain gate restrictions, but he said in an old-fashioned manner: "Well, this junior has fulfilled his duties, which is not bad. I took note of it -"
The man had to raise his hands to send him off.
The other disciples guarding the mountain gate suddenly seemed as if they were in a daze, whispering to each other——
"Senior Xunfangtang Xunshan is here..."
"That senior actually hid his cultivation and looked at the stranger..."
"Since you are hiding your cultivation, why can't you disguise yourself..."
"Haha, this time Senior Brother Pu has made a meritorious service..."
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Pu..."
