Tiannan, Nanluo Forest.
Near the Murong family's forbidden area, the previously dense trees were no longer there, and an open area with a radius of a hundred miles was created by manpower.
Neat boundaries have been drawn in this area, and a dozen simple but sturdy wooden houses have been built on the edges. In one of the houses, the atmosphere is somewhat solid.
Huaifenghua sat on the seat, frowning in silence. Chen Zhuo, who had just arrived, pushed his body into the chair, sighed happily, and said with a smile: "Changing the desolate forest into a medicinal field, when I think about this in the future Those elixirs can be grown in places where birds don’t poop, so I can’t wait to cut down hundreds more trees.”
"..."
"cough."
Seeing that Huai Feng Hua didn't answer, Chen Zhuo glanced at the Huai Cao poem next to Hua Feng Hua and said seriously: "Master Huai Gu, the matter has been found out clearly. What Zhang Shanshan did with the Banshan Gang was indeed not authentic. No. It is said that the disciples outside are the disciples allocated to the Suzaku Sect from the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley. Even if they are not, the Banshan Sect should not come to ask for them."
Huaifenghua frowned and said, "It's a trivial matter, but my senior sister told me that Murong Xiuming and Zhang Shanshan had a close relationship some time ago. You are here, what have you discovered?"
Chen Zhuo laughed, his features squeezed together, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Murong Yin has been waiting to see what will happen to the Suzaku Sect. Seeing that things are getting better, let Murong Xiu Ming show off. It looks pretty good. normal."
Huai Caoshi narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Murong Xiu Ming doesn't have much ability. To do such a thing, it is probably Murong Yin's idea. But how could Murong Yin just tarnish the reputation of Wanhua Valley? Murong Yin's paragraph I’ve already met Jiang Xingyuan three times, don’t you know?”
Chen Zhuo heard the words and sighed softly: "It seems that Murong Xing told you the news. Speaking of these forces in Tiannan, we are so intertwined that we might as well become one force to avoid being suspicious of each other."
Huaifenghua said calmly: "Shopkeeper Chen."
Chen Zhuo smiled bitterly and said with his hands: "Master Huaigu, they all know about my relationship with the City Lord's Mansion. I really don't know the inside story, but this matter is indeed strange, but now the Vermillion Bird Sect has just started, and I am I hope everyone will consider peace as the most precious thing."
Huaifenghua shook her head, walked to the door, looked at a dense forest on the edge of the medicine field, and said: "Before Mu Qing left, he asked Cao Jin to keep an eye on Murong Jian, but Cao Jin didn't know that a few days ago, Murong Jian has returned to the forbidden area of the Murong family, what is he going to do? Or what are Murong Jian and Murong Yin going to do?"
Chen Zhuo was surprised and said, "Murong Jian returned to the forbidden area?"
Chen Zhuo stood up and paced back and forth in the room with a frown, "I haven't heard anything about this matter. I heard that there are still eight remains of the ancestors of the Murong family in the forbidden area. Is that possible?"
Huaifenghua looked in the direction of the dense forest, with a hint of chill in her eyes, and said: "Murong Yin and those people will betray the Suzaku Sect sooner or later, and Murong Jian cannot obey others. Although this is within the Suzaku Sect, However, since Murong Jing left Suzaku City and has not returned with Mu Qing, we have to take care of this matter."
Chen Zhuo said: "I will send people back to the city now to contact Cao Jin and Murong Yun."
Holding a small black wooden sign in her hand, Huaifenghua shook her head and said, "I came here because I was investigating Zhang Shanshan. If I went to inform Cao Jin, it would only scare the snake. I want to visit that forbidden place. I don't know if Chen Can the shopkeeper lead the way?"
"No!" Chen Zhuo said quickly: "If something happens, Murong Jian can kill us all by himself."
Huaifenghua smiled and said, "There is only Murong Jian in the forbidden area now. Just lead me to a place and then leave."
Chen Zhuo was slightly stunned when he heard the words. He was silent for a while, but couldn't help but said: "Master Huai Valley, you know too much about the affairs of the Suzaku Sect. Even I don't know about this kind of thing."
Huaifenghua smiled lightly and did not explain anything.
During this period, Qinglong and White Tiger both reached the early stage of transcendence and consumed countless elixirs from the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley. It was only natural for her to accept this favor. She could know what Murong Yin and the others were doing. Qinglong learned about it.
But if you want to know Murong Jian’s movements better than Cao Jin, there is actually only one person in the entire Suzaku City.
Person——Murong Yun.
However, Murong Yun just told her that there was something wrong with Murong Jian's practice and that she needed to return to the forbidden area to heal.
Huaifenghua received the news from Huaicao Shi and knew that Murong Yin and Jiang Xingyuan, two guys who used to dislike each other, had become closer recently, so she connected these seemingly unrelated things.
Her intuition told her that these people might be plotting something.
When Chen Zhuo saw that Huaifenghua was determined to go to the forbidden area, he sighed helplessly and said, "I only pointed out the location to the Valley Master. If something happens, I will run away."
Huaifenghua nodded: "Just run."
Soon, the three of them walked through the cultivated and flat land, walked deep into the dense forest, and arrived in front of the forbidden area.
Chen Zhuo pointed to the ground under his feet and retreated ten feet away.
When Huaifenghua came here, she was still holding a box in her hand. She glanced at Huaicao Shi and signaled to be careful. She heard Murong Jing say that in this forbidden land under her feet, it is difficult to cultivate without being in the mortal stage. be opened.
Huaifenghua rubbed the black wooden sign in her hand, pondered for a moment, and then said directly: "Senior Murong, Murong Yun said that there are some problems with your practice. I brought a pill that may be effective for you."
After the words fell, Huaifenghua took a few steps back and looked around, but there was no response in the dense forest except for the specks of dust swaying gently on the leaves.
Huaifenghua's eyes darkened and she said, "Senior sister, you retreat to Chen Zhuo's place. If I don't come back within a quarter of an hour, you can leave directly."
Huai Caoshi frowned slightly, but after taking a look at what Huai Fenghua was holding, she finally nodded and said softly: "You have to be more careful."
Huaifenghua said: "Don't worry!"
As Huaifenghua spoke, her expression became much more serious. She opened her palms, and the black wooden sign suddenly floated in front of her. Huaifenghua silently recited the secret of activation that Murong Jing gave her, and whispered: "Thunder Bound" Spirit, appear!"
Buzz buzz——
As Huaifenghua's words fell, the black wooden sign trembled, and a black thunder as thick as an arm rushed out of the wooden sign and surrounded Huaifenghua. As the black dragon's eyes opened, two white flames shot out from the dragon's eyes. , hitting the ground instantly, blasting fallen leaves and sand into the air.
This black wooden sign was the lightning strike wood that Lin Langtian gave to Murong Jing. Lin Langtian carved the thunder binding formation that suppressed the heart of fire veins into it. After Murong Jing refined the heart of fire veins, he also carved this Refining a piece of lightning strike wood, the fire attribute true spirit was born inside this piece of lightning strike wood, which was a great weapon to restrain and overwhelm the body of the soul.
Between the flying sand and rocks, the ground parted to both sides, revealing the deep, dark passage inside.
Huaifenghua jumped down without hesitation.
Huaifenghua walked downhill for a short period of time and then walked into a passage.
At first, Huaifenghua was relatively relaxed, but the further forward, the more pervasive pressure I felt on my body.
This passage has been set up with an extremely special formation. If someone who is not a member of the Murong family bloodline goes in, the greater the suppression they will receive.
However, when Murong Jing chose to cultivate a medicinal field here, it was because he discovered that the exhausted fire vein in the ground provided energy for this formation. And as Lin Langtian took away the heart of the fire vein, not far away A special formation was set up to condense the fire attribute aura. The formation in this passage was far inferior to before.
Huai Fenghua relied on her cultivation in the mid-extraordinary stage to reach the second half of the stage, and then activated the lightning strike wood to form a defense around her body.
However, when she reached the end of the passage, Huaifenghua found that it was completely blocked by a large stone.
Huaifenghua turned sideways and put her ear against the stone, and could vaguely hear some strange whistling sounds.
"Senior Murong?"
Huaifenghua shouted tentatively.
The movement behind the stone stopped suddenly, and after a while, a deep voice came out: "Who is it?"
Huaifenghua quickly expressed her intention to come, but Murong Jian behind the stone didn't care at all and said coldly: "Go back. In my case, I don't need pills."
Huaifenghua came here just to find out what Murong Jian was doing.
What the hell, how could you give up? After hearing this, he pondered for a moment, raised his voice by half a minute, and said solemnly: "I already know something from Murong Yun. Senior, please stop doing this."
"..."
There was a wordless silence.
Just when Huaifenghua was hesitating to leave, the big stone in front of her was suddenly moved away. Because the big stone was moved too fast, it actually caused the air in the passage to flow backwards, and Huaifenghua also rushed in.
In the dark space, light occasionally flashed across the altar in the center, which was the gem inlaid on it. Huaifenghua squinted her eyes slightly and glanced across the altar, and soon she was looking in front of a stone wall. We arrived at Murong Jian who was wearing a black robe.
"Senior." Huaifenghua lowered her head slightly and shouted.
This space was like the inside of a hollow mountain. The stone walls were smooth and flat, but Huai Fenghua still noticed lines that were slightly different from the walls. These were stone doors embedded in the stone walls.
At this moment, Murong Jian was standing in front of a stone door, and the stone door was still slightly protruding.
Huaifenghua carefully controlled her expression, threw the wooden box in her hand towards Murong Jian, and said, "Senior, this is a Yuan Condensing Pill, it should have some effect on stabilizing the Yuan Shen."
"Ning Yuan Dan..." Murong Jian reached out to take the wooden box, opened it, took a look, nodded slightly, and said, "This is a fourth-turn golden elixir. You shouldn't be able to refine it with your current abilities."
Listening to Murong Jian's question, Huaifenghua smiled calmly and said, "This is specially obtained from the Western Mountain Realm. If it is useful to seniors, I will let the caravan bring back a few more next time."
The space was dark, and most of Murong Jian's face was hidden under his hood. It was hard to tell what his expression was, but he still said in a low and hoarse voice: "You are serious."
Huaifenghua said with a smile: "Senior, you should have broken through to the early stage of mortal transformation. You are now the person with the highest level in Suzaku City. The stronger you are, the more stable the situation will be in the future. The elixir has been delivered, so I will gone back."
Murong Jian hummed slightly and said nothing more.
The expression on Huaifenghua's face did not change, and she turned around and walked towards the entrance of the passage.
This time, she saw clearly what was blocking the entrance before. It was also a complete large stone. It looked like a stone door that had been embedded in the wall before, but it was clear that the stone doors in all the stone chambers were not missing.
A trace of doubt flashed through Huaifenghua's heart, and her steps became a little faster.
But as her footsteps fell, an extremely clear impact sound spread in the quiet space: "Boom——"
Huaifenghua frowned, pretending not to hear, and was about to leave when a scream suddenly sounded from behind: "Murong Jian, kill her, she already knows our existence!"
