In the hall where you can hear the drop of a needle, the wind passes through the corridors, bringing a cool feeling.
"Nonsense!!"
Elder Xuanyang was the first to suffer the attack.
This senior, who often couldn't keep up with these young people because of his ideas, was blowing his beard and staring at the owner of Peach Blossom Island. If it weren't for Master Su Ling who kept holding him back, he would have really wanted to go up and argue with the young island owner. !
"What a nonsense! You know that there is a succubus locked up in the Peach Blossom Secret Realm and the seal is in danger, but you still want to open the secret realm to let so many people in. What are you doing in there? Are you sending appetizers!"
The little old man who was pulled angrily tried to push Ling Yuanbai with his legs, but was restricted by the length of his legs, and the serious atmosphere was suddenly broken.
Zhu Changming picked up the wine gourd on the ground and took a sip. With the smell of wine, his whole body returned to his lazy posture.
He crossed his legs and leaned on the Taishi chair, narrowed his narrow phoenix eyes, tapped the table with his slender index finger, and said with a deep smile: "Elder Xuanyang, don't be anxious, Island Master Ling is by no means a casual person, so He must have his own reasons for doing so, how about we quietly listen to his reasons?"
"snort!"
With Zhu Changming's words, Xuanyang's anger was temporarily suppressed. He snorted coldly at Ling Yuanbai, broke away from Master Su Ling's hand, raised his beard, put his hands behind his back, and sat on the Grand Master's chair. I want to see what flowers you can tell me' expression.
Ling Yuanbai cast a grateful look at Zhu Changming. He clasped his fists and apologized to the people sitting here: "I did not inform you in advance and dragged your disciples into the chess game without permission. Is it Bai's fault? Please listen to me." The reason for doing this!”
In terms of qualifications, he couldn't compare to Xuanyang, the veteran of the Beast Control Sect, and in terms of Suixin, he couldn't compare to Zhu Changming of the Wanjian Sect. Ling Yuanbai felt that he was really aggrieved as the island master.
But being aggrieved is aggrieved, and the responsibility lies with him, and he cares about it more than anyone else.
"You should remember that the time I originally set for the opening of the secret realm was half a year later."
Master Su Ling nodded cooperatively and motioned for him to continue.
"But some time ago, I received a message from Xuan Jizi, the master of Tianji Pavilion."
He took out an envelope with the Tai Chi Bagua printed on it, and opened it to find Xuan Jizi's signature: "The letter said that he calculated that the world of cultivation was about to undergo great changes, and that the demon clan's seal was about to be broken. In this critical autumn, the key figures were destined to... The person has appeared, please make sure I open the secret realm of peach blossoms in advance and lure him/her into the chess game."
Lingwen took the envelope and carefully checked its authenticity and the contents in the envelope. They were exactly what Ling Yuanbai said. She said in a calm voice: "The letter is true."
Elder Xuanyang hurriedly stepped forward and took the letter from Lingwen's hand: "Xuan Jizi has been in seclusion for many years, how could such a letter suddenly be sent to him? Could it be -"
The words suddenly stopped. Looking at the familiar seal, Xuanyang's mouth twitched, "Well, it seems that he has calculated something."
An ugly Tai Chi Bagua diagram with no borders, it looked like it was hand-drawn by someone confidently. Seeing this pattern, all the doubts in Xuanyang's heart were overthrown.
The ugly Tai Chi Bagua diagram may have been meant to imitate Xuan Jizi’s handwriting, but it was so ugly that he swore that he would not be able to find another one in the entire world of cultivation!
Xuan Jizi loves painting, but his painting skills really don't dare to be complimented. Any more compliments would be unconscionable.
Thinking of the person who painted portraits of acquaintances and friends before seclusion, Xuanyang, who was poisoned, was also one of them.
Xuanyang clicked his tongue, and half of the anger in his heart had disappeared: "This guy has laid out such a big game of chess, and it seems that without exception, we have all stepped into it!"
"But -!" He changed the subject, "You actually didn't discuss such a big matter with us. If I had known that the Peach Blossom Secret Realm was so dangerous this time, I would have prepared more good things for those little bastards. !”
It was rare for Lingwen to stay on the same side as Xuanyang. He looked at Ling Yuanbai dissatisfied, the meaning in his eyes couldn't be more obvious.
"Thinking about it in a different direction, this time should be regarded as a slightly more intense training for them."
"As a last resort, it will take action and throw them out of the secret realm."
"...It?" Master Su Ling was confused, but the answer was already coming out.
Ling Yuanbai looked embarrassed, coughed twice and explained: "Its full name is the Chaos White Jade Mushroom. Before his death, Master said that it was ordered by the Moon God to protect the seal and the secret realm of peach blossoms. It will not attack me for no reason. The disciples who were sent in let the blood-sucking vines attack Tao Tao and the others without harming their vitality. I'm afraid they just wanted to make a side attack and use this method to drive them out of the secret realm."
His tone paused, "Its birth and actions, I'm afraid, there is something wrong with the seal."
"Oops!" Master Su Ling suddenly clapped his hands and looked panicked, "It will be bad if there are evil cultivators among the people who enter!"
She couldn't help but think of those lunatics from Lan Sha Tang. Last time they mixed things up in the Ice Abyss Valley, turning the clear water into muddy water.
"Don't worry about this. I have checked in advance and there are no evil cultivators in the two groups of people who entered!"
"I specially used the Hunyuan Drum to test them. All those with unstable minds or evil thoughts were screened out."
The day before the secret realm was opened, Ling Yuanbai went to the Musical Instrument Pavilion to ask for the Hunyuan Drum in order to reduce risks.
"Hunyuan Drum, that's a good thing!" Xuanyang's eyes lit up: "Evil cultivators are rampant now. If we can use the Hunyuan Drum to screen the disciples of the sect to see if there are evil cultivators undercover, we don't have to worry about them leaking the news! "
Not long ago, the Beast Control Sect received a request from the villagers, saying that they saw an evil cultivator with a bloody orchid tattoo operating nearby. They had just received an order and were preparing to outflank and arrest them. The other party seemed to know their plan in advance, and not only played a trick on them A group of old bones killed a mother and son in front of them.
This happened more than once, and besides the Beast Control Sect, several other sects also had similar situations.
The sect has been infiltrated by evil cultivators, and they must find a way to dig out these undercover agents and eradicate them all.
Now that I think about it, Peach Blossom Island is actually the sect that has been least affected by these situations. Thanks to the Hunyuan Drum, it is not easy for evil cultivators to come in undercover.
Ling Yuanbai pondered for a moment: "You can borrow the Hunyuan Drum, but you must have someone guard it. Evil cultivators have not come to steal it before, and the ancestors also left a foreword about the Hunyuan Drum, which is in line with the fate mentioned by Xuan Jizi We have an incomprehensible relationship with each other, so when you leave Peach Blossom Island, please be sure to protect it on my behalf!"
"Don't worry, as long as we are here, no one can snatch it!" Xuanyang agreed. He couldn't wait to return to the sect and find those nasty undercover agents!
"Did you just say that there might be a problem with the seal?" Zhu Changming, who had been mute for a while, suddenly said.
Everyone looked at him in confusion.
I saw him pointing at the water mirror, "Maybe it's not just the seal, but there seems to be something wrong with the secret realm..."
Please join the chess game, everyone is a pawn
