Qian Chao's figure is hanging in the air. The expression on his face is plain and his eyes are calm. His two hands are stretched out, constantly changing different hand techniques. Near his side, there are countless people like snow flakes. The talisman hung quietly, surrounding Qian Chao in the center, almost completely covering his figure from the outside. The strong wind in the air was strong, and Qian Chao's robe was blown loudly, and his hair was fluttering in the wind. However, these fluttering yellow paper talismans were not moved by the strong wind at all like they were made of iron, and they always maintained the same relationship with Qian Chao. A stable distance, and all of them were shining with a slight yellow light. Following Qian Chao's hand movements, one or two yellow lights kept shining and fluttering in front of Qian Chao. After he took a look at it, he turned around again in a moment. Following his hand gesture, he returned to his original position.
Not only Qian Chao, there are many groups of talismans floating near or far away. At first glance, they look like a flock of birds in the sky. If you look at it for a long time, you will find that the talismans surrounding Qian Chao are exactly the same. He controls the talismans in groups near and far. Whenever Qian Chao draws a few talismans around him in front of him with his hand skills, the talismans in groups near and far will move differently, or disperse all of a sudden. Come, like a flock of birds looking for food, flying up and down; or they gather into a small group at once, and at the same time, each one is glowing with a shining yellow light, like a shining gold star rising in the sky, and sometimes the whole group The talismans were lined up in the air and kept patrolling, like a military formation drill.
Qian Chao's figure kept moving. In front of his feet was the frightening black mist in Shouwo Mountain. From time to time, a bolt of lightning would pierce the darkness there.
The remaining four companions were scattered around Qian Chao. At this time, they were no longer interested in the strange scenery inside Shouwo Mountain. Instead, they all looked at Qian Chao's surroundings with vigilance, especially Li Jian, who came and went from time to time. Patrol, and sometimes go to a distance to check or use your own induction power to search.
After all, this was outside the sect, on the border of Shouo Mountain, a dangerous place that people rumored to be dangerous. No matter from which level, they should be cautious.
Today is the fifth day that Qian Chao and the five of them have been here in Shouwo Mountain.
The past five days have indeed been very boring. Since arriving here, Qian Chao has not stopped using his methods to detect the spiritual veins here. Of course, it is only the spiritual veins outside Shouwo Mountain. Those who enter or come out of Shouwo Mountain of spiritual veins. In the past five days, he didn't know how many times he had circled the Shouwo Mountain. One spiritual vein after another was discovered by him, and then he recorded it, and then continued. Even at night, when his companions were resting, Qian Chao was also carefully drawing the distribution map of spiritual veins here in Shouwo Mountain under the lamp, or he was deep in thought.
In the past five days, Qian Chao has been almost non-stop.
Although he is busy, it has been a bit boring for the other four companions these days. However, he has already said before that Qian Chao will decide how to enter and exit Shouwo Mountain, so the four of them can only wait for Qian Chao. Find a clue here and find a safe way to enter Shouwo Mountain.
However, just a few days ago, when Qian Chao was determining the direction of a spiritual vein, he followed the spiritual vein for a while and found a ruins under a mountain cliff where the spiritual vein passed. , this can be regarded as an unexpected surprise. After opening it, he gained a lot. Lu Pingchuan was beaming with joy at the things inside. For him, with this ruin, it was not a waste even if he couldn't enter Shouwo Mountain this time. After this trip, not only that, Tang Ping also unexpectedly found two mosaic jade lamps in this ruins. Now the two lamps promised to Chu Yuan were found, but Qian Chao at this time However, his mind was not focused on the ruins at all. In the past few days, all his attention was focused on the distribution of spiritual veins outside Shouwo Mountain.
…
While Qian Chao and the other five were busy here in Shouwu Mountain, two pairs of eyes were closely following their every move, far away from others.
They are Shangguan Hong and Tian Shuangyou.
After the two women left the sect, they didn't delay at all on the way, and finally arrived here on the third day after a long journey.
When they first arrived here, the two of them searched for a while but did not find Qian Chao and others. In fact, Qian Chao opened a ruins at that time, and several people were counting the harvest there. When Tian Shuangyou couldn't find Qian Chao and the other five people, he thought that either they had already entered Shouwo Mountain, or that the five of them had not come here at all, and the rumors spread by Shangguan Hong were of no use at all.
Obviously Shangguan Hong was much more stable than Tian Shuangyou. She insisted that Qian Chao and the five people would definitely come here. It was probably because the two of them had fast physical skills and had come early. If they waited a little longer, they would naturally see those five people. As soon as she came I didn't believe that Tang Ping would ignore this rumor, and secondly, I didn't believe that they would rush in so rashly.
Sure enough, the two of them later discovered that Qian Chao and others appeared here, and watched Qian Chao surrounded by countless talismans flying around Shouwo Mountain in the air.
Tian Shuangyou was very curious about this and asked:
"What are they doing, what is that Qian Chao doing?"
Shangguan Hong smiled and said:
"There should be someone in your Tian family who is proficient in the study of spiritual veins, right?"
"You mean..." Tian Shuangyou took a closer look at Qian Chao, but he still didn't believe it. "He doesn't even have a disciple in the study of spiritual veins. How can he understand those advanced knowledge?"
"Then what do you think he is doing?"
"We're all here, why don't they go in? Why don't they just keep pretending to be mysterious?"
"More than a month ago, my master took two of us sisters into Shouwo Mountain. Master is well versed in the study of spiritual veins, and he also knows the general direction of the entrance. However, after arriving here, he was still meticulous and cautious. He had to search for a while before he finally determined the location of the entrance. After all, he had only heard about how to enter before, but it was also his first time to actually go in. Even though it seemed that you could go in on the surrounding mountains, but if you don’t know what’s inside, Realistically, if you go in rashly, you may not be able to take more than two steps and you will be trapped in a desperate situation..."
"Is it really that dangerous inside?" Tian Shuangyou still didn't believe it.
"Of course, this is a dangerous place that the Five Spirit Qi Refining disciples should not come to. Although my master does not pay attention to the monsters inside, he is extremely careful inside and tells us sisters to be absolutely You can't run around, you must follow him step by step. In his words, the monsters there are not powerful. What is really powerful is that area. There are many spiritual veins in there. He may be fine, but we sisters If the two of them go in the wrong direction, they will be in big trouble even if they don't die. Look at what Qian Chao is doing now, he must first detect the direction of the spiritual veins from the outside, and then find a way in. Let's see. I've been struggling with him for two days, so I guess it's almost over."
"Then Tang Ping also has a master, and her master is your uncle. She is looking for a precious spiritual bird egg. Why doesn't she ask her master to help her instead of coming here to take risks herself?"
"Well... my uncle Guhuo is different from my master. My master has very few disciples. Our sisters are his only two disciples. But Tang Ping's master is different. He has many disciples. Over the years, some disciples have She was very promising and made quite a name for herself, but some of her disciples died outside. My master said that almost all of her disciples who she interfered too much with or took good care of died outside. Those things she left alone have become promising, maybe it is for this reason, I heard that most of Tang Ping's affairs are done by herself, and her master rarely interferes."
"There is such a thing!" Tian Shuangyou couldn't help but say after hearing this.
"Also, don't underestimate Tang Ping. She is considered a playboy in the Wuling Sect, but I have never heard of her doing anything ridiculous in the sect. The reason why she chose Qian Chao is With a person by my side, well, my little junior sister’s ambition is not small.”
After hearing this, Tian Shuangyou cast his eyes again at the figure wrapped in a ball of talismans in the distance in the sky. The two of them didn't know how long Qian Chao and others had been there, and they couldn't go to inquire, but they had seen it in the past two days. Coming down, Qian Chao has been doing the same thing, which is to circle around Shouwo Mountain. This circle is not a short distance, but Qian Chao always seems to be in no hurry. Not impatient and extremely meticulous, in Tian Shuangyou's opinion, this is an extremely boring thing, but... It has been two days, and I have seen those people around Qian Chao, including Tang Ping, have been quietly watching. There was no trace of impatience around him.
It seems that his understanding of Qian Chao and his companions is still superficial, Tian Shuangyou thought to himself.
Shangguan Hong looked at Tian Shuangyou and suddenly smiled and said:
"You set your sights on Qian Chao and want him to bow down to you. In my opinion, well...I'm a person who never mince words and that's a bit unpleasant...your chance of success is actually not great. .”
After hearing this, Tian Shuangyou withdrew his gaze, turned to look at Shangguan Hong beside him, and asked:
"Oh why?"
"As for Qian Chao, I didn't pay much attention to him at first. I just thought he was like an ordinary disciple. He followed Tang Ping closely because he was greedy for her background. He was just a wretched person like a little follower. , so when I first met Qian Chao, I was still very disdainful of him. But...his methods really made me miss him. Also, if you came to Wuling Sect earlier, you could If you catch up with the big tide in Hanquan Valley, your view of him will completely change. I think you are still a little dissatisfied with your defeat at the hands of Qian Chao. Although I didn't see you fighting with him, in my opinion, you It’s not a loss at all for losing. If you had seen Qian Chao’s methods during the big tide in Hanquan Valley, you probably wouldn’t have done anything with him. He did help me a little when we were in Hanquan Valley. He even said that in Hanquan Valley, During the spring tide in Quan Valley, at least half of the credit for the safety of a woman named Yan Shuang that the sect valued should be attributed to Qian Chao. Later I thought that maybe Tang Ping and he were always together. It's not that Qian Chao is attracted to Tang Ping, but on the contrary, Tang Ping admires Qian Chao very much, so they are always together."
"So, all the rumors I heard about the tide in Hanquan Valley are all true?" Tian Shuangyou asked.
"Listen more and find the similarities. Rumors, there are always exaggerations and falsehoods. Eliminate them, and the rest is almost true. Also, if you have been unable to hold your hand on Qian Chao, If you can’t kill him, what should you do?”
Tian Shuangyou has not seriously considered this issue. In her opinion, the chance of this happening is slim. If Qian Chao is still unable to seduce her, then she will be like her nephew Tian Du and try her best. Plot him until you get rid of him. This is also the reason why she and Shangguan Hong can cooperate. Seeing that Tang Ping and Qian Chao are often together, regardless of whether there is an affair between the two, Tang Ping is a stumbling block for Tian Shuangyou and must be removed. Then she could make further arrangements for Qian Chao, and Shangguan Hong was also deeply hostile to Tang Ping, so the two hit it off immediately after meeting. If she could help her this time, maybe Tang Ping would die in Shouwo Mountain. Then This is good news for Tian Shuangyou.
Of course, if those five people died inside, it wouldn't matter to Tian Shuangyou. After all, she asked Qian Chao to surrender for the sake of the Tian family. It would also be beneficial to the Tian family if Qian Chao died. In short, for her, Qian Chao either surrendered or died. , there is no third option.
"I really haven't thought about this issue. If I can't make him surrender to me, I will have to deal with him with all my efforts. Maybe it would be easier to let him die."
"Well, if you ask me to tell you, you are really uncomfortable living. You have considered and calculated everything for the sake of your own family. Even your lifelong Taoist companion has this as your goal. It really... In my opinion No matter how good the family is, it is better to be free and happy. Even if you can build the Tian family into a world-famous family, so what? It is a bit far to say this. I am not speaking for the Wuling Sect, but in my opinion Come on, maybe your Tian family is very powerful, and it has been secretly accumulated over many generations, but you know very little about the strength of the Wuling Sect. It can become one of the six sects in the world, and it is not as big as the Muyang Sect. Do you think your Tian family can really compete with them? Let me tell you, your coming to Wuling Sect is actually an opportunity. Why not really stay here? Becoming a world-famous female monk in the future is no better than dealing with the Tian family every day. How much better is that mess of trivial matters?”
"Xiaoyao..." Tian Shuangyou smiled bitterly after hearing Shangguan Hong's words, "You don't have the burden of a noble family, but I am different. I was born in the Tian family, and since I was a child, I have been fighting with my brothers, sisters, and elders and juniors around me who are about the same age. Yes, this Tian family is what I value most. One day becoming the head of the Tian family has been my wish since I was a child. To this end, I am willing to use all my strength. In fact, this is similar to cultivation. Anyway, it is all a matter of competition. .”
Shangguan Hong smiled when he heard this:
"Fortunately, my Shangguan family does not have a rule that a woman can be the head of the family, otherwise I would probably fall into the same trap as you."
Tian Shuangyou obviously didn’t want to continue this topic, so he said:
"You said that guarding Wok Mountain was a trap set up by others to harm you. So... are those people who want to harm you inside?"
"Of course," Shangguan Hong smiled, "They have to watch me die with their own eyes before they can feel at ease. Just wait and see. Maybe you can meet someone you know when you get in!"
