When the five people said this, Luo Ying's five people and the few people Lu Yu met had separated and left separately. So Qian Chao and others stopped talking and continued to follow them secretly.
That night, Qian Chao and the other five people carefully checked around the place where Luo Ying and others stayed. After still finding nothing, the five people also found a place to stay.
In two days there is no need to continue following like this. If nothing is discovered, the two groups will get together and go to the ruins.
While chatting about nothing, Tang Ping still suspected that Luo Ying was too suspicious and nothing happened at all, but she was suspicious. Lu Pingchuan next to her agreed, while Qian Chao remained silent and was thinking about something.
"Hey, Mr. Qian, what are you thinking about?" Tang Ping asked Qian Chao after talking for a while without seeing him speak.
Qian Chao felt that maybe Luo Ying's guess was right and said:
"I'm thinking that in the future, when Senior Sister Luo Ying and others build a foundation, we may become the target of others' attention. No matter how secretly we do it, we will probably be targeted by someone who is interested. By then, Senior Sister Luo and the others may also be there. Such trouble. Girl Tang, there is one thing I am still curious about. Where did Senior Sister Luo Ying get the information about the ruins she knows about? Do you know?"
"Probably... well, her grandfather is Senior Luo Ban. It's possible that Senior Luo knew about it and told her..."
Qian Chao nodded, and then continued:
"Girl Tang, if you ask Senior Guhuo or Senior Tang and your senior brothers and sisters who built foundations, is it possible that you can also find out some news about the ruins?"
"This... I can definitely ask, Mr. Qian, if you want to collect information about this, I can find more people to ask about it when we get back. Well, maybe we can know more than Luo Ying. .”
Lu Pingchuan smiled and said:
"Hehe, that's a good thing. Hey, I'll ask my master and senior brother later, they should know something too."
"What, are you going to work on the ruins?" Tang Ping asked.
"Well, now that we know the benefits of the jade-fat lamp, we should all have one before we build the foundation. After Senior Sister Luo and the others have one each, it's time for us to be busy. But I am thinking about other things. Look, if you ask your seniors or brothers, you will also find the whereabouts of some relics, and the number will not be small. I estimate that the relics that Senior Sister Luo Ying knows cannot be all her own. I found it, and the method of getting it is probably similar to what you said. Then you think, since you can get the news about the ruins in this way, will there be someone besides Senior Sister Luo Ying who also knows a lot... Well... Comparatively Where are the important ruins?”
"This..." Tang Ping thought for a while, "most disciples cannot open the ruins even if they find them. The sect has been here for so many years, and there are still so many ruins outside the sect, which is enough to prove this. Those The seniors and the brothers who built the foundation must have heard about it or found it in person when they were refining qi. Even if they couldn't open it at the time, they would remember it in their hearts. However, as long as the foundation is built, it can be done from the outside world of cultivation. If you find better things, who will care about those relics, so you can probably learn the whereabouts of some relics from their mouths. Well, if you are thoughtful, like Luo Ying, you will naturally master many relics after years of collecting s position……"
When Tang Ping said this, she was keenly aware of what Qian Chao would ask next. She couldn't help but look at Qian Chao and said:
"You want to know if it's possible for Yu Nian to know the locations of many ruins...is that right?"
"Yes, this is what I am worried about. Since Senior Sister Luo can get the location of those ruins, Yu Nianhui has been in the sect for so many years, and they must know the location of many ruins."
"Then why didn't they open the ruins?" Yanxuan asked, but he immediately realized that the answer to this question was very simple, and couldn't help but laugh again.
Qian Chao's methods of opening relics are already very clever. So far, he has tried his best to open the relics that the five people have encountered. Even Luo Ying, who was famous in the sect for his formations, now asks for help. he. If what Luo Ying said was true, and there were really people secretly watching her every move, then even if those people knew the location of the ruins, wouldn't they still be following Luo Ying furtively? It's one thing to know where the treasure mountain is, but it's another thing to be able to retrieve the treasure from the mountain. If they can't open the ruins, those people can only look at the treasure mountain and sigh in vain.
"So what if I know, they can't open it?" Tang Ping said.
Li Jian understood what Qian Chao meant and said:
"I understand what Brother Qian means. If those people really know the location of many ruins like Senior Sister Luo Ying, and are unable to open the ruins like Senior Sister Luo Ying, of course they are also more unwilling to give up the treasure inside. Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others can still ask Brother Qian to help, but those people can only keep an eye on Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others. However, Senior Sister Luo Ying also said that although she always felt that she was being followed, she only saw a few They are just suspicious figures, and they are not sure who is following them. In fact, in my opinion, keeping an eye on them is not necessarily following them. If it were me who kept an eye on Senior Sister Luo Ying and those five people, I would not Follow them, but be in front of them..."
"In front?" Yanxuan was confused.
"Understood," Tang Ping said, "As long as you also know the location of those ruins, you don't have to take the risk of following Luo Ying and the others. After all, the five Luo Ying people are still very vigilant. If you follow them all the time, they may be exposed. As long as they see the direction Luo Ying and the others are going, they can probably guess which ruins they will go to. Then they can rush there in advance and hide near the ruins and wait. Well, maybe they can also arrange it in advance and wait. After they opened the ruins, they rushed out to rob Luo Ying and others, and even sent people to take advantage of the chaos to grab things, ha, is that what you mean, Mr. Qian?"
"Oh, that's what happened! Hey, I just said it would be pointless for us to follow him all the way." Lu Pingchuan also understood.
Tang Ping said:
"But, Mr. Qian, these are just your assumptions. The first is whether anyone is watching Luo Ying and others; the second is whether those people know the location of many ruins as you guessed... "
Qian Chao saw that his companions understood what he meant and said with a smile:
"If it's as I guessed, let's give it a try and we'll find out."
"How to try?"
"Well, my method is that we have to work harder. Let's set off now and take advantage of the night to walk in the direction where Senior Sister Luo Ying and others will continue their journey tomorrow. We need to use Brother Li's induction to see what's going on with us. Is there anyone near the meeting point with them? If so, Brother Li, please write down those people. Then, ask Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others to change directions tomorrow and act as if they are going to other ruins. Of course There must be ruins in that direction. When we go out again tomorrow night, if we find that the person we found tonight appears near the ruins in the other direction tomorrow night, it must be the person who is staring at Luo Ying and the others. "
Li Jian said:
"Well, that's a good idea."
Tang Ping said:
"This is a good idea, but it's best to go find Luo Ying and those people first. Boy Qian, the meeting place marked on the map Luo Ying gave must not be the exact location of the ruins, that is, where to meet them. It’s just a meeting. If there is no one there, it doesn’t necessarily mean that there is no one at the ruins. If you want to use your method, you must first ask Luo Ying for the exact location of the ruins. Do you think she will tell you?"
"She will definitely tell us that she knows so many ruins. My method is enough to get the location of the ruins in three different directions from her at most. Besides, since it is cooperation, if there is no such little trust, how can we talk about cooperation? Woolen cloth?"
"Okay, then as you said, if we work harder tonight, maybe we can save a lot of trouble when we open the ruins ourselves in the future."
"Okay, let's go find Senior Sister Luo Ying first."
…
The hiding place of Luo Ying and others is a cave in the mountains. The outside of the cave is blocked by vines on the mountain wall. The inside of the cave is twists and turns. In the deepest part, Luo Ying and the five of them are resting.
Not all Qian Chao went in. Li Jian, Yan Xuan and Lu Pingchuan were on guard outside, while Qian Chao and Tang Ping walked in.
Luo Ying was alarmed when Qian Chao and the other five arrived. She was even more surprised to see these three people coming in and asked:
"Boy Qian, Girl Tang, why are you here? This is not our plan."
"I have something I want to discuss with my five senior brothers and sisters..."
Then Qian Chao told Luo Ying all the five people he had discussed before.
After Luo Ying and others listened, they thought for a while, and the five of them discussed among themselves, and then Luo Ying said:
"We haven't thought about this. Well, we always look behind ourselves. After what you said, it is indeed possible, okay..."
After speaking, Luo Ying asked Qian Chao to take out the previous map. She circled two locations on it in different directions, then pointed to one and said:
"This is the ruins we are going to on this trip, and this one is also a ruins. We have to go north from our current location. You go to that ruins tonight to check it out. When tomorrow morning, we will turn directly north. Will there be results tomorrow night?"
"If someone really has been watching you, there should be results tomorrow night."
Luo Ying nodded, pointed to the place near the second ruins on the map and said:
"Okay, but if you do find those people tomorrow, don't touch them. We will move forward slowly and wait for you here. When you find them, you can tell us. After all, we are about to build the foundation and we have some troubles. It doesn’t matter, as long as you build the foundation, everything will be resolved, and you will have to stay in the sect for a long time. Those people... we will take care of them tomorrow night, you don’t have to do anything."
"Okay!" Tang Ping replied, "Then let's go."
…
In the darkness of the night, Qian Chao and others flew for more than two hours, traveling quickly, and finally arrived near the ruins Luo Ying mentioned. They found a hidden mountain forest, and the five of them quietly came down to discuss.
"Brother Qian, Miss Tang, you two don't go there," Li Jian said. "It's easy to be discovered if there are too many people. I'll go there quietly by myself. Don't worry, I won't get too close. I just need to circle far away." I can know what’s going on there and then come back.”
It makes sense for Li Jian to say this. Among the five people, Li Jian was undoubtedly the first in terms of his agility and speed. He also had natural telepathy, so he had to go there by himself and let the others wait. here.
"Brother Li and I will go together." Lu Pingchuan said.
"No, Brother Lu, you also wait here, I will be back soon."
"Be careful, Brother Li."
"Um."
Li Jian's figure flew away and was submerged in the boundless night.
Birds chirped and beasts roared from time to time in the forest, but otherwise there was silence. It was the new moon tonight, the sky was full of stars, and everything was pitch dark, which was conducive to Li Jian's spying.
After about a stick of incense was touched, just when the four people were waiting impatiently, Li Jian's figure quietly flew back.
"I'm back, Brother Li, how is it there?" Tang Ping asked eagerly.
"There are people there. Maybe Brother Qian was right this time. There are seventeen people near the ruins..." Li Jian said.
"So many people! Do you know any of them, Brother Li, or have you seen them in the sect?"
"I don't know many people in the sect. I don't know any of those people, but they are all high-level Qi refining practitioners. They are divided into three groups and ambush near the ruins. I am far away from them, and they are not I was not found."
"That's good, let's wait and see what happens tomorrow night."
…
After dawn, Luo Ying and others changed direction when they set off again, heading directly to the north.
Qian Chao and others did not change positions at night, but continued to look at those people, so they saw the movements of those people.
It seems that in addition to those waiting here, there are still people who are watching Luo Ying. Just in the morning, someone rushed here in a hurry. After a while, Qian Chao and others hid in the forest and looked through the branches and leaves. I glimpsed the dozen or so people flying out from near the ruins in a hurry, and actually headed north.
"Sure enough, you guessed it right." Tang Ping said.
"It also depends on where they go. If they don't go to the location of the second ruins marked by Senior Sister Luo, then I may have guessed wrong."
On this day, Qian Chao and the other five people no longer followed Luo Ying and the others, but followed the dozen or so people from a distance. Those people were even more alert. At the beginning, people would go around in circles from time to time. , to see if someone was following them. Fortunately, Li Jian was able to discover it in advance, and Qian Chao's "Hidden Spirit Formation", so no matter how hard those people tried, they couldn't find anything unusual.
The next dozen or so people hurried on faster. After they couldn't find Qian Chao, the five of them thought nothing happened, so they released their speed and flew northward. Finally, when the sun's shadow moved westward after noon, they gradually He slowed down, then searched around a place high and low. After finding nothing unusual, he dropped down and hid his figure.
Qian Chao looked at the map in his hand. Their current location was exactly where the second ruins were marked by Luo Ying on the map.
Now it seems that even if these people are not members of Yu Nianhui, they must have been keeping a close eye on Luo Ying and plotting against them.
"Huh, now there's no need to do it again at night." Tang Ping said.
"Let's go. Depending on the weather, we can go find Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others now. Let them take care of them," Qian Chao said.
Yanxuan guessed that if Luo Ying and his men came to deal with them, there would inevitably be a fierce battle here. He didn't know how many of these people would be able to escape in the end, but after all, it was these people who ambush here first with unfavorable intentions. It was hard to say anything. Thinking of this, she asked:
"Senior Sister Luo and the others...will they kill all of them?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Ping knew that Yanxuan was soft-hearted and said:
"That's their business. But even without us, if Luo Ying has the ability to open this ruins, those people will definitely come out to rob it, and there will be casualties. In order to build the foundation, who will give in. And ah , Sister Yan, if someone obstructs you and prevents you from going home to see your mother, what will you do?"
Yanxuan was startled. He didn't expect Tang Ping to say this. He immediately put down all the confusion in his heart and said:
"Let's go find Senior Sister Luo and the others."
