Qian Chao was on the outskirts of the Thousand Needles Pine Forest. At this time, he had activated the runes written on his arms, and his whole body was in a completely transparent and invisible state, but his subtle technique had not been fully used.
From Ah Jiu's mouth, he knew the locations of the most powerful arrow squirrels and trumpet birds in the Thousand Needles Pine Forest. At this time, Qian Chao was still far away from there, and generally speaking, there was only one of the most powerful demons in the forbidden area. The monsters they usually see are similar to the ones they saw in Shouwo Mountain. They are all mid-level monsters. In Shouwo Mountain, they use fluorite powder to become invisible and use small wooden signs engraved with the hidden spirit array to hide themselves. The spiritual energy emitted is enough to go all the way to the center of Shouwo Mountain. The same is true here, except that Qian Chao no longer relies on the choking fluorite powder, and completely deploying the subtle technique consumes spiritual energy, so Qian Chao planned to use the subtle technique to hide himself when he was close to the location of the arrow pig or the trumpet bird, but he would not use it now.
Just after Qian Chao moved forward for a short distance, a beast roar full of intimidation came from the depths of the dense pine forest. If he said he was not afraid, it would definitely be a lie, but Qian Chao was sure Now with my own methods, I can still hide from the ordinary monsters that appear here.
…
Outside the Thousand Needles Pine Forest, Zhang Yi wisely stayed away after hearing Zong Xi ask him to stay away for a while. He knew that Zong Xi might completely surrender to Lou Qing Yao next and promised her to deal with Qian Chao and the others. , or Zong Xi refused Lou Qingyao. In that case, he would have to rely on himself to deal with Qian Chao in the future. His mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about what he should do if the worst outcome happened. , Lin Jian is willing to deal with people like Qian Chao, but he is still being punished and cannot get out at all. So who else would be hostile to people like Qian Chao and have the idea of getting rid of them?
Immediately he thought of Shangguanhong who left here not long ago.
Thinking of Shangguan Hong, Zhang Yi felt a little scared at first. If nothing else, Shangguan Hong was too shrewd. Cooperating with her might cause some trouble, so Zhang Yi felt very hesitant. .
At this time, Zhang Yi avoided Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao, but what Zhang Yi couldn't hear was clearly heard by Tang Ping, Li Jian, Yan Xuan and Lu Pingchuan who were nearby.
Zong Xi stared at Lou Qingyao and said:
"Miss Lou, I am saying this to you shamelessly. I have fallen in love with you at first sight since you came here. You must have felt it too. We have been together these days, and you should know how much I love you. My family is Xiang is not a flirtatious person, so when I saw Miss Lou, I felt like I had found a treasure. When the Hundred Years Bridegroom offered Miss Lou to stay in the Wuling Sect, I was even more surprised. I said without any secret, I want to keep you in the Wuling Sect. Zong, I want you to stay with me, and I also want to help you get that Qingluan..."
Zong Xi became louder and louder as he spoke, and became more and more excited. His face turned slightly red. He suddenly realized that Zhang Yi must be able to hear such a loud voice. He couldn't help but look back at Zhang Yi. Seeing Zhang Yizheng obediently walking further away, he turned back and continued:
"But... you and I have similar identities, and you should also understand my situation. Especially when it comes to matters concerning Taoists, the elders in the family will not let me make my own decisions. You must know this better. We are all the same. I have always I'm begging my parents, but they didn't agree at first because of your identity. After all, the relationship between Lion Forest and Wuling Sect is very delicate. But as time went by, they didn't think about it, but...but...but my father The news I recently heard from the Lion Forest is...but it is...Miss Lou, you have made an engagement with someone else many years ago, which is why my parents are suspicious of you. After knowing this news, I It’s like five thunderbolts. I don’t want to believe that Miss Lou, you are already a man waiting to be married. I really want to ask you, but I never have the chance. I can’t open my mouth. Today you have to leave again for the sake of Qingluan’s egg. I threaten, this...how can this not make me think too much!"
Although Zhang Yi hid further away, he still heard Zong Xi's words. After hearing this, Zhang Yi couldn't help being dumbfounded. In order to avoid embarrassment, he simply turned away from Zong Xi and Lou Qing Yao Er. However, he was secretly complaining in his heart. He didn’t expect Zong Xi’s parents to go to the Lion Forest to find out the details of Lou Qing Yao. Moreover, Lou Qing Yao had already entered into a marriage contract with someone. No wonder Zong Xi had been hesitant and unwilling to do so. The crux of the effort for Lou Qingyao turned out to be here. Thinking of this, he felt both enlightened and regretful. As a dandy, he blamed himself for having expected this a long time ago. Not to mention Zong Xi, even Zhang Yi himself would He could not choose Taoist companions by himself, so it was normal for Lou Qingyao to be engaged to someone, but she should have told her about this matter earlier. If she had known this, Zhang Yi would have thought of other ways.
At this time, the four Tang Pings who were hiding nearby also heard these words. Among them, only Tang Ping heard it most clearly. At this time, Tang Ping was most worried about Lu Pingchuan, fearing that he could not help but hear such a bloody and confusing story. Fortunately, Lu Pingchuan knew that he must not make any noise at this time and kept silent.
At this time, after listening to Zong Xi's words, Lou Qingyao's face turned bright red, as if he had applied a thick layer of rouge, his two round almond eyes stared at Zong Xi, and then His breathing worsened, and his chest began to rise and fall obviously. After a moment, there was a sudden "pop" sound, and Lou Qingyao swung his arm and slapped Zong Xi so hard on the face that he was almost in the air. Lou Qingyao turned around and was about to fly away.
In an instant, Zhang Yi was stunned by this scene. Also shocked were the four Tang Pings who were hiding.
Zong Xi originally wanted to hear what Lou Qing Yao had to say, but unexpectedly he received a slap in the face, catching him off guard. Lou Qing Yao who hit him actually turned around and left. Zong Xi was anxious and angry. shouted:
"stop!"
Lou Qingyao suddenly stopped and turned around when he heard this, and said sharply to Zong Xi:
"Congratulations, brother, you have a sharp eye and have seen through my beauty trap. Now you want to keep me here. Are you planning to teach me a lesson?"
"You...what are you talking about..."
Lou Qingyao said sharply:
"Zong Xi, I'm blind. I thought I found a big tree, but I didn't expect that what I found was a piece of rotten wood. Let's say goodbye and never see each other again in the future!"
After saying that, Lou Qingyao ignored Zong Xi and started flying quickly towards the distance.
Zong Yi stared blankly at Lou Qingyao's figure, and suddenly said "Hey", as if he wanted to stomp his foot heavily. Unexpectedly, it was in the air. Seeing Lou Qingyao's reaction, he guessed that one of them must be someone he didn't know. Knowing the reason, he immediately started to catch up with him at a faster speed. Not long after, he chased behind Lou Qingyao and grabbed one of Lou Qingyao's arms, saying:
"You wait first..."
But before he finished speaking, Lou Qingyao suddenly slapped his face and slapped him again. There was a "pop" sound, and golden light flew in Zong Xi's eyes. Fortunately, he did not let go. Holding Lou Qingyao's arm firmly, he endured the pain and said:
"Miss Lou, calm down. If Zong said anything wrong, you should say something clearly so that I can understand..."
Lou Qingyao's face was bright red at this time, and her bun was a little messy. She stared at Zong Xi with fierce eyes, and her chest was rising and falling. It looked like she was really angry. After hearing Zong Xi's words, she couldn't help but sway. He tried to pull out the arm that was not caught by Zong Xi, but Zong Xi caught it with quick eyes and quick hands, and said angrily:
"Stop fighting. If I'm wrong, you should tell me!"
After struggling for a moment, Lou Qingyao was still unable to break free from Zong Xi's restraints, so he took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice:
"Okay, let go of your hand. This doesn't look right. Since you want to know, I'll tell you clearly."
At this time, Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao were far away from where they originally stayed because of the chase. Zhang Yi was a little embarrassed now. He estimated that what Lou Qingyao said next was the most important, even if it was her The lie he made up should be an important part of deceiving Zong Xi. Although the two people were far away from him at this time, Zhang Yi still wanted to know how Lou Qingyao manipulated Zong Xi out of curiosity, but he didn't want to make it too obvious, and just now He saw Zong Xiang being beaten, which was very embarrassing, so he headed further away from the two people, but the place he went to was indeed downwind, and he expected to continue eavesdropping on the two people there. speak.
In this way, the surroundings of Tang Ping and the four others became peaceful.
Lu Pingchuan also muttered quietly:
"This woman is so cruel, she even beats her own man..."
"Hush, Brother Lu, be quiet!" Tang Ping immediately warned him in a low voice.
"What should we do?" Yanxuan also asked in a low voice.
"No need to ask, just go quietly and eavesdrop."
…
Of course, Qian Chao, who was inside the Thousand Needles Pine Forest, didn't know that Zong Xi outside had just been slapped twice. At this time, he was heading towards the depths of the pine forest. There was a beast roar before, but after that, the pine forest was quiet. When we got down, there was no sound anymore. The pine forest was very dense, and we could only see a few dozen feet away. No matter how far away it was, it was blocked by a wall of pine trees. Qian Chao was walking in it, and the feeling under his feet was always soft, because the ground There was a thick layer of fallen pine needles, and Qian Chao felt like he was stepping on a thick blanket. After all, he was still on the outskirts of the Thousand Needle Pine Forest. There was nothing strange about it, and he didn't see any monsters.
Qian Chao's plan is very simple. The first thing is to find the location of the spiritual spring water that Ah Jiu mentioned, find the spiritual spring water, and then put the small-mouthed jade bottle that Tang Ping gave him there to collect the spiritual spring water. , and then he went to do other things, and took away the jade bottle together before going out. During this period, he also had to carefully confirm the spiritual veins in the forbidden area. What he drew on the map were Thousand Needles. He has to confirm the spiritual veins outside the pine forest again. In the process, he can discover or deduce whether there is a natural "land of divine power" here. If there is, it will be very big. It's possible that the big green luan originally laid its eggs here, which is a good thing for Tang Ping.
Of course, there is another important thing, which is to find the arrow pigeons and trumpet birds in the thousand-needle pine forest according to the direction Ajiu said. It should be no problem to find them. What Qian Chao wants to know is whether he can follow the directions inside. The spirit veins arranged the formation to trap or weaken the arrow pig and the trumpet bird, so that Ah Jiu would have the opportunity to come here to enjoy her blood food in the future. Only by allowing Ah Jiu to benefit can he get it from her mouth in the future. More useful information, not only the forbidden areas outside the sect, but also places where Ah Jiu may be used in the practice world in the future.
Qian Chao walked forward silently with his figure hidden. Soon, when Lou Qingyao was grabbed by Zong Xi's hands and wanted to say something, Qian Chao was attracted by a not tall tree in front of him. Living.
There are really good things in this thousand-needle pine forest!
When he saw the tree, Qian Chao couldn't help but think about it.
