This is a suite. In addition to the living room in front of you, there are three bedrooms, all of which are protected from prying eyes. There are obviously people inside.
Yang Zhen didn't care either. She looked at the woman at the table and smiled without saying a word.
Chen Ru seemed to be deep in thought. It wasn't until Yang Zhen came in that she suddenly woke up from a dream. She quickly left her seat and bowed down:
"Chen Ru thanked fellow Taoist Yang for his help four years ago."
Yang Zhen stretched out her hand to help her: "I was also involved in trouble at the time and didn't want to cause any more trouble, so I didn't identify you. You don't have to thank me."
Chen Ru insisted on finishing the salute and stood up and said: "Fellow Daoist Yang is so bright and beautiful, how can a villain be able to trap him? No matter what, Chen Ru will deeply remember the kindness of Daoist Yang that day."
While talking, Yang Zhen had already come to sit down at the Sifang table. Chen Ru hurriedly came over and gave him a cup of tea. After sitting down on one side, she asked:
"Fellow Daoist Yang sent word to the store today that he wanted to see me, but what's the important matter?"
"Nothing important," Yang Zhen waved her hand: "It's just that I met an old friend in this small county here. I was so happy that I couldn't help but want to reminisce about the past."
After speaking, he smiled heartily and said, "Sister Chen, you won't blame me for being reckless, right?"
"How dare you. Chen Ru is also overjoyed to meet Fellow Daoist Yang here."
"That's very good," Yang Zhen tapped the back of her finger on the table and asked, "Junior brother was still unclear about something in Langshan that day. I wonder if senior sister can help me clear up my confusion?"
"What's the matter?"
"Although I didn't identify him at the time, how did Senior Sister pass Yunqing Palace's questioning?"
"Why did Fellow Daoist Yang ask about this?" Chen Ru did not answer, but looked at the young man in confusion.
"It's just curiosity. If senior sister doesn't want to, there's no need to force it." Yang Zhen said openly.
"Actually, it's nothing," Chen Ru muttered: "Yunqing Palace is asking questions. Firstly, the monks need to vouch for each other. I happen to know a few friends who have vouched for me; secondly, I'm using my soul to oppress you. I don’t dare to lie. I was lucky enough to get through without letting them notice any clues.”
"That's it." Yang Zhen secretly admired her.
Those who asked questions at that time were all Foundation Establishment disciples. Under the pressure of the soul of the foundation-building monk, Chen Ru was able to keep the spiritual platform clear, which shows that her soul is quite powerful and should not be underestimated.
"Did the Yin family still force you to marry me later?" He thought of something again.
Chen Ru was slightly embarrassed. She couldn't help being curious about this guy. She thought for a while and said, "After I came out of Langshan, I didn't go back to my hometown. The Yin family didn't find me."
"How is that possible?" Yang Zhen asked strangely: "The ancestor of the Yin family was still the master of the Zhenguo Palace at that time, in charge of the states, palaces, counties and counties in the world. As long as you have not left the Xu Kingdom, it is impossible to escape their control."
Chen Ru remained silent and did not explain.
"Unless..." Yang Zhen suddenly realized: "You have been in the wilderness these past few years, right?"
Chen Ru still didn't speak, but the look on her face clearly acquiesced.
"It's hard for you." Yang Zhen looked at the woman in front of her with some sympathy.
The wilderness is full of dangers. As a female cultivator who has not yet reached the foundation building stage, walking in such a place is tantamount to gambling with her life.
"That's not right," Yang Zhen suddenly understood. She stared at the other person and said word by word: "You are from the Disbanded Alliance, right?"
As soon as the words "disbanded alliance" were spoken, the living room seemed to suddenly become colder, and a wave of murderous intent poured out from each room, locking him firmly.
As the name suggests, this is an alliance between loose cultivators. In Xu State, the Yunxiao Sect and the major cultivating families control almost all the cultivation resources in the world. In order to keep the casual cultivators together, various organizations came into being, and finally this secret alliance was formed.
Because it is an alliance, the structure is loose, and the various affiliated organizations cannot be managed by the Sanxiang Association. Therefore, it is a mixed bag of good and bad, good and bad. For example, the killer organization hired to assassinate Yang Zhen was one of them.
Over time, the reputation of this alliance was not very good. In addition, Yunxiao Sect suppressed and defiled it from time to time, and it became like a rat on the street, and could only develop in secret.
…
Yang Zhen glanced at the room without paying attention, but continued to ask:
"Are those casual cultivators who helped you cover in Langshan back then, like you, also members of the San Alliance?"
"Junior Brother Yang," Chen Ru sighed: "Love will last forever, and wisdom will be damaged. Junior Brother Yang is such a smart person, doesn't he understand this truth?"
"I'm not interested in your identity," Yang Zhen said frankly: "I tell you in front of you, but I just hope that there will be no grudges between you and me. Whether it is a casual cultivator or a family, as long as they are not committing adultery in Wushui County I won't even care about it, otherwise, I will interfere!"
"You?" Chen Ru was startled, and then she remembered to ask the other party's identity: "Young Daoist Yang is an inner disciple of the Yunxiao Sect. Could it be that you are working in Wushui County now?"
"Yes, I am now the head of the Wushui County Pavilion. I have just taken office."
The murderous aura coming from that room suddenly rose a little higher.
"Hey," Yang Zhen said helplessly, "Can you please advise this friend of yours not to show your murderous intentions at every turn and look like you are going to fight?"
Chen Ru was still shocked by the identity of the other party. Junior Brother Yang, so young, was already in charge of a county!
If he could help us...
Suddenly, she had more hope of success in her visit to Liangjia Town.
"Senior Brother Zhang," she called into the room: "Fellow Daoist Yang does not mean any harm. Please don't rush into the guests."
The murderous aura in the room suddenly disappeared.
"Fellow Daoist Yang," Chen Ru offered another cup of tea: "You are looking for me today, but do you have anything else to do?"
"To be precise, I have something to ask you. The reason why I asked you about your identity before was because of the incident." Yang Zhen said as she took out a series of things from her storage bag.
What came into view were two tattered storage bags that had lost their storage effect, as well as some spiritual stones, elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, two paper books of exercises, and a pile of clothes. Including women's clothing.
"This is the relic of Wu Zhaotian and Feng Xiaoyu," Yang Zhen introduced: "These two were killed by the demon monkey that day, and the storage bag was also thrown into the cave by the demon monkey. Later, when I escaped from the cave, by the way Take away their relics together.”
"I have read through these two books of exercises, and from the words in Wu Zhaotian's notes, I guessed that he should be a member of the Sanmenghui. I wonder if you were familiar with them before. If so, please pass these relics to them. Family and friends."
Chen Ru was stunned and moved. She had speculated on various possibilities, but she didn't expect that Yang Zhen would actually come to her for this matter!
"Junior Brother Wu, like me, is a monk from the Alliance," she admitted, "Going to that secret place to hunt for treasures was also a task assigned to us by the Alliance, but it's a pity..."
She looked sad and said no more.
"Chen Ru, on behalf of Junior Brother Wu and Junior Sister Feng, would like to thank Junior Brother Yang for his great kindness." Chen Ru stood up from her seat and bowed down again.
Only then did she officially change the title of the other party to Junior Brother Yang.
Yang Zhen even said she didn't dare. After this incident, both parties felt that their relationship had become closer.
Although the murderous intention in that room was put away, the hostility still existed, especially when Yang Zhen confessed her identity. But at this time, the hostility was also reduced a lot.
"I wonder what Junior Brother Yang thinks of the Liang family?" Chen Ru asked tentatively after the two sat down again.
"Bullying the market and bullying the weak, there are many evil deeds," Yang Zhen said without hesitation, "I will punish him in the future!"
Chen Ru felt a stone fall in her heart.
The woman stood up and left her seat again, straightened her clothes, and bowed down for the third time.
"I have something to ask of you," she whined, "please help me, junior brother, to find the whereabouts of junior sister Zhou and others!"
…
"Last autumn," Chen Ru began to talk after she calmed down:
"Senior Brother Liu, Junior Brother Huang, and Junior Sister Zhou came to Liangjia Town and were going to look for some kinds of spiritual herbs in the mountains..."
"What are the ages and cultivation levels of these three people?" Yang Zhen asked in great detail.
"Senior Brother Liu is over fifty years old and has perfected his Qi training. Junior Brother Huang is less than forty years old and has also perfected his Qi training. Junior Sister Zhou is Junior Brother Huang's Taoist companion, one year younger than him and has reached the seventh level of Qi training."
"Are the qualifications of casual cultivators so good?" Yang Zhen was shocked.
These people, according to their age and cultivation level, basically have the hope of building a foundation. In the Yunxiao Sect, not every disciple can be promoted to Foundation Establishment. At least half of the disciples stay at the stage of perfecting their Qi training, wasting their lives.
Looking at Chen Ru again, she had already completed her Qi training four years ago. Now her aura is more solid. I am afraid that foundation building is not far away.
There is also the young man yesterday, who is estimated to be thirty years old at most, and has reached the seventh level of Qi training. Foundation building is almost a certainty.
Could it be that all the talented people have gone to work as casual cultivators?
"Some have good qualifications, such as Junior Brother Huang, and some..." Chen Ru hesitated for a moment and replied, "It's because of taking the Five Zang Pills."
Five Zang Pills! Yang Zhen suddenly became enlightened.
When Qi practitioners practice, they need to look inside the five internal organs and stimulate the spiritual roots in order to introduce external spiritual energy into the body. It's just that this method cannot be used for a long time every day, so as not to damage the five internal organs and affect the foundation.
In other words, when a monk practices normally for a certain period of time, such as an hour, the five internal organs will be overwhelmed. At this time, if the internal organs are looked at, the effect will be much worse, and the absorption efficiency of external spiritual energy will be greatly reduced.
Usually at this time, the monks will stop practicing and wait until the five internal organs have recovered tomorrow before practicing again.
But in this way, the monk's cultivation speed will be greatly affected. Many people are just Qi practitioners throughout their lives. Not only do they lack spiritual qualifications, but also the above-mentioned reasons prevent them from being able to "make up for their weakness with diligence".
Yang Zhen also solved this bottleneck not long ago after both cultivating the energy of chaos.
Correspondingly, another way to deal with this shackles is to take Wu Zang Dan.
Wu Zang Dan, as the name suggests, its effect is targeted at the five internal organs in the body. It can stimulate the potential of the five internal organs, enhance their affinity with spiritual roots, and greatly extend the cultivation time.
Others can only have one hour a day, but if you have two hours a day, your cultivation will naturally grow faster than the other person.
However, this way of stimulating the five internal organs is actually counterproductive, damaging the foundation, and causing serious consequences.
The biggest consequence is that it will reduce the success rate of monks building foundations. The more this elixir is taken, the greater the damage to the internal organs, and the smaller the hope of foundation building.
Despite this, this elixir is quite popular among casual cultivators.
The reason is simple. In the wilderness, there are many crises. The higher your cultivation level, the stronger your ability to protect yourself.
A fast-rising late stage of Qi training, or a step-by-step middle stage of Qi training, who is more likely to survive when encountering danger?
The answer is self-evident.
Seeing that Yang Zhen was speechless for a long time, Chen Ru guessed what he was thinking, smiled sadly, and continued:
"At that time, we agreed that we would go into the mountains for at most one month, and no matter how much we harvested, we would come back. But several months later, there was no news from them..."
"Three of them who are in the late stage of Qi training can fly with swords. Even if they encounter monsters, it is still possible for one or two to escape." Yang Zhen was also confused.
Although there are many golden elixir level monsters in the depths of the Million Mountains, including old Yuanying monsters, the area five hundred miles west of Wushui County can be said to be a buffer zone between the human and demon clans. Monsters will leave this kind of place.
Likewise, human cultivators above the Purple Mansion do not dare to set foot here at will.
This is the arena where low-level monks and low-level monsters fight. Monsters of level two or above rarely appear, so three late-stage Qi-training monks are enough to protect themselves.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything.
"Is it possible to encounter a flying second-level monster and not be able to escape in time?" Yang Zhen analyzed.
"No," Chen Ru shook her head and said with a very certain tone, "They are not dead. At least, Junior Sister Zhou is definitely still alive."
"Why so sure?"
Chen Ru raised her hand, a door opened, and a handsome man in his thirties came out.
"This is Junior Brother Zhou Pozhou," Chen Ru introduced: "He and the missing Junior Sister Zhou are twin siblings. The two have practiced a mental method and can sense each other's life and death."
"That's it." Yang Zhen suddenly realized.
Zhou Po showed a sad look on his face, knelt down and saluted Yang Zhen and said, "As long as Senior Brother Yang helps me find my sister, Zhou Po is willing to do anything to repay her."
Yang Zhen quickly helped her up: "It's natural, I don't dare to accept it as such a big gift."
He then asked: "With the mental skills of your brothers and sisters, in addition to sensing life and death, can they also sense each other's position?"
"There is some fuzzy sensing, and you need to look for it repeatedly to confirm."
"Where is the approximate location?"
"This town is to the west, the specific location is unknown."
"Have you left Wushui County?"
"Hard to say."
Yang Zhen was silent. If it was within Wushui County, it would be equivalent to still being in Liangjia Town. No wonder Chen Ru would ask herself what she thought of the Liangjia Town first.
People's hearts are more sinister than monsters. The disappearance of these three people cannot rule out the possibility of the Liang family taking action.
"No matter what, having your mind is much better than having no clue." He comforted.
Afterwards, the three of them chatted for a while.
Yang Zhen had just arrived, and many things in the county office had not been sorted out yet, so she couldn't get away for the time being, so she agreed with them that if they still didn't find her after half a month, she would definitely come to help.
Finally, the three of them discussed how to communicate, left a few kites with each other to communicate, and the young man took his leave.
…
Just when Yang Zhen met Chen Ru, several people were discussing secretly in a secret room in Liangjiabao where the Liang family clan was located.
