After the flying corpse disappeared, Zhan Changfeng left the Gangfeng Territory and headed west. His consciousness scanned the ground and found that the further west he went, the more zombies were sleeping.
The Gaotian Clan was drained of energy, and so was the Zombie Clan.
There is no trace of life in this place, and the power of nature is weak. There may not be much moonlight for the zombies to practice, so they will keep themselves alive in a sleeping state. Otherwise, how can they allow outsiders like them to run around above their heads.
The heat hit, and the ground beneath my feet cracked inch by inch. Three miles further, thick cracks appeared like spiders crawling all over the land. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow up black sand and dust.
Zhan Changfeng slowed down. This heat was so unusual that even the Qi moving around the sky could not offset it.
"Fellow Daoist Zhan, the barrier is one mile away." This was Ran Nian's message.
Zhan Changfeng followed the instructions and saw a hand emerging from the crack wide enough for a person to wave at her.
Jumping down the crack, Rannian placed a few more concealment formations on it, and walked into the short cave with a long and windy waist.
This hole was just dug. After a while, my waist finally straightened up, and a larger hall hole appeared. Luo Wen, who was chasing from the left of Fengshanhai, Tangjinshan, and Luo Hua, who had been missing before, were all here. They just looked a little embarrassed and were meditating to regain their strength.
"What happened?" Zhan Changfeng asked as his eyes lingered on them.
"Okay, we've already finished the battle, and you just came here. The task of standing sentry is left to you." Ran Nian relaxed his shoulder bones and looked not very good.
The wounds on their bodies didn't look like they were injured by the Zombies. Zhan Changfeng pulled out a piece of brown paper and said, "Aren't you going to draw a map? I didn't meet anyone outside."
Several people couldn't help but pay attention when they heard this. They actually went to draw a map. Why are they so honest? None of them gathered here at the first time.
They couldn't say this. After all, after employment turned into cooperation, they didn't care about the mapping task Ran Nian mentioned.
Rannian was also surprised. He took the brown paper from her and unfolded it. As expected, the mountains were clearly marked and marked, and even the distribution of zombies underground was marked. It must have taken a lot of effort to get it so accurate. "Fellow Taoist, you are serious. Are there any troubles on the way? "
"I did meet some people, but I avoided them all." Zhan Changfeng looked a little hesitantly.
Seeing this, Ran Nian said generously, "If you have any questions, fellow Taoist, please feel free to ask."
"It's not that I don't trust the general, it's just that I think this secret realm is a bit unexpected. Previously, Daoist Zuo and I found a token engraved with the words Blade Warrior on a corpse in the maze outside the valley. It was said that it was the Marquis of Qi Bei. It’s in the name of Master Hu.”
Her tone was always slow and steady, and she paused when she said this. Rannian followed her words and looked at Zuo Zhuzhi, who nodded.
Zhan Changfeng continued as if he had never paused, "After arriving in the secret realm, I met some monks and fought with one of them. Judging from his appearance and means, this person should be General Mo under the command of Marquis Weiming."
Everyone was surprised when they heard Jiang Mo's name, and Tang Jinshan even repeated, "Are you sure it's Jiang Mo?"
He obviously didn't believe it. Jiang Mo was among the top five rookies in the power rankings, and he was not qualified to invite him to fight. How could Zhan Changfeng fight with him, and how could he remain intact after the fight!
Zhan Changfeng nodded and paid no attention to their exploration. Sometimes being vague makes her more mysterious and makes people pay more attention to her. Unexpectedly, there was already more consideration in Ran Nian's eyes.
Ran Nian did not respond directly, his eyebrows were clear and stern, "If you have any concerns, fellow Taoist, it's okay to say so. We have known each other for a short time, but we still know each other. Doesn't my character make you feel at ease?"
"I've been worrying too much." Zhan Changfeng said bluntly, "If this secret realm is a competition ground for those big forces, I might stop cooperating and find an exit to leave."
After hearing this, Zuo Zhuzhi and others in Tang Jinshan couldn't help but think deeply. She had not participated in the previous brawl. If she had participated, she would have known that not only the Marquis of Weiming, but the Marquis of Qibei, could also recognize the troops under the command of Marquis Zhegui of Jinyi. , including those who could not be recognized for the time being, at least seven groups of monks came.
To be able to bring so many big forces here, the things in this secret realm must be very important. Even if these few of them who work alone are lucky enough to seize the food from the tiger's mouth, who knows whether they will face the pursuit of these big forces in the future.
When walking in the monastic world, you need to have some experience. For example, casual cultivators should avoid competing with those who are backed by family gangs. Ordinary monks or forces should not compete with princes who are committed to expanding their territory.
Tang Jinshan and others did not propose to leave immediately because they were speculating whether Ran Nian had the support of Marquis Wen Han.
If they are blamed on Marquis Wenhan, even if the treasure cannot be obtained, splitting the soup will always do.
At this time, several people were very grateful to Zhan Changfeng for clarifying the problem, which saved them from holding back their doubts.
Rannian appreciates Zhan Changfeng more and more. He is prudent in thinking, decisive in advancing and retreating, and sincere in heart. He is really a rare talent.
"Fellow Taoist's concerns are reasonable. There may be something going on here that even I don't know about."
Ran Nian looked reminiscing and felt a little embarrassed, "When I came here before, I really didn't attract anyone's attention. If I have to say it, this time I recruited you to explore the secret realm and leaked the news. Of course, I am not doubting you. I am I suspect that the wanted notice I issued to find the lost sword may have attracted their attention. After all, the sword was taken out of the secret realm."
Feng Shanhai said on the side, "I initially felt that the pattern on the sword was a bit strange. Maybe someone might recognize it."
Zuo Zhuzhi asked, "Actually, I have always been curious. Since the sword is a spiritual treasure, the general should keep it carefully. How could it be stolen by someone, and how could a wanted order be issued? If the thief can steal this treasure, Tao Xing will definitely not do it." Qian, you won’t be caught easily.”
Ran Nian raised the corners of her lips, inscrutable, "Of course I know that if something can be stolen from me, it will not be easily caught."
She looked around and looked slightly relaxed, "In this case, I will not hide it. After the sword was stolen, I deliberately let people in the house reveal that I got the sword from an unknown secret realm, and also deliberately recruited strong people. The person who explored the secret realm with me for the second time was naturally to mine the secret realm, and on the other hand, it was also to lure the thief out. If he knew that there was a treasure like the Lingbao in the so-called unknown secret realm, how could he not be tempted."
Zhan Changfeng was so happy that she actually smoothed things over, which showed that she was determined to remain an uninformed person.
So Zhan Changfeng cooperated, "General, does he suspect that the person who stole the sword is among us who were recruited?"
Tang Jinshan and others cannot deny that they were recruited on their own after receiving the recruitment order, so they are all suspects?
Ran Nian shook his head, "I'm even more suspicious now. I was stared at after I entered or left the secret realm for the first time, and then someone stole the sword without anyone noticing. After all, I am the Foundation Establishment Dzogchen. If you want to steal something from me, you have to escape from the ordinary world."
Zhan Changfeng nodded, "Maybe it was the action of those forces. It seems that they have some understanding of this secret realm and what they want."
"It should be like this." Ran Nian smiled brightly, "But you don't need to worry too much. I also noticed the movement of these big forces before entering the secret realm. They appeared together, and what they were planning was definitely not something we could interfere with. I have already Notified the Si Xunfu in advance and asked them to inform the elders meeting."
Regardless of her own position or that of Marquis Wen Han, informing the elders meeting was obviously the most correct decision. Everyone has no doubt about him.
Ran Nian: Lie after lie after lie. I’m so angry, but I still have to keep smiling.
