Incense Valley in Southern Xinjiang
After Li Xun drank for several days in Heyang City, he returned to Fenxiang Valley. When he returned to the room and was about to take a rest, he suddenly felt a chill behind him. When he turned around, he saw that Shangguan Ce had appeared. in front of him. Said: "Uncle Master, how do you..."
"Hmph..." Shangguan Ce snorted dissatisfied, "Where have you been these days? Look at you now, you smell of alcohol. Did you go drinking?" "I, I... .." Seeing Li Xun's hesitant look, Shangguan Ce's face darkened and he said, "Is it because of that woman again? Xun'er, don't forget your identity. Also, I came here to tell you that I plan to come The Miao people will try to find out if there is any way to summon the Eight Evils Mysterious Fire Array. If not, they can only use blood sacrifice."
Li Xun said: "Uncle Master, are you really planning to go?" Shangguan Ce nodded and said: "Yes, if we can find it, then we can eradicate the Qingyun Sect and become the true leader of the righteous path!" "Xun'er, a man is born in this world. , when you are determined to do something big, how can you be entangled in the personal affairs of your children? Think about it for yourself!" After saying that, Shangguan Ce walked away, leaving only Li Xun standing there blankly. Without saying a word...
Qilidong, Southern Xinjiang
A steady drizzle. It's been raining for a few days. Finally stopped. at this time. Two rays of light pierced the sky. Rush down. The light faded. Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu were revealed. Naturally, Xiao Hui is still around these days. The two of them have always been flying with swords. When you are tired, find a hill or forest to rest.
The two of them came to a narrow mountain road and walked in. Xiao Hui sat on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulders. The tail wags back and forth. Extremely boring. Walking into the narrow mountain road, it is winding and winding. On the hard stone walls on both sides, if there are unexpected rocks protruding out, if you are not careful, you may hit your head on them.
And looking at the water droplets dripping down from many places around the stone wall, the most common place even gathered into a small pool. There was a lot of green stone moss growing up and down the stone wall in the dark places, filling the air with a slightly moist and cold feeling. smell. Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu finally managed to find their way out of this ancient mountain road with many twists and turns. My eyes suddenly opened up. here. It is Qilidong. A paradise where the Miao people live.
As they gradually deepened, more and more Miao people noticed their behavior, and whispers continued around them. After about half a cup of tea, they reached the foot of the tall mountain of the altar. Then, they stopped, not because they hesitated, but because the Miao soldiers stationed at the foot of the mountain stopped them. They kept talking in a language they didn't understand.
At this time, Xiao Hui, who had been sitting on Zhang Xiaofan's shoulder, started to move. It climbed down from Zhang Xiaofan quietly. He walked gently to a Miao soldier next to him. While his attention was on Zhang Xiaofan. Extend the monkey's paw. He snatched the wine bag hanging from his waist.
The soldier reacted immediately. Counterattack. But Xiao Hui is so flexible. It crawled three times. Climb to the top of a big tree. Zhang Xiaofan naturally saw all this. He seemed a little angry and said: "Xiao Hui, come down quickly." But who knows, Xiao Hui turned out to be disobedient. Turn around. Point your red monkey butt towards him. Unscrew the wine bag. He drank it gurglingly. It really would rather drink. No master either. in its mind. Maybe that’s what I thought.
Zhang Xiaofan was helpless. I can only take out some money and give it to the soldier who is still showing off his power to the monkey. Later, Tuma Gu, the leader of the Miao ethnic group, came down and asked, "Mr. Zhang, I wonder if you have any business here this time?"
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Clan leader, why do you still remember me?" Tu Ma Gu saw him like this. Then he said: "The three-eyed monkey is very special to us. Since your last visit, many people have seen it." Zhang Xiaofan understood immediately. This is what it turned out to be. But at this time. Xiao Hui is not around at this time.
sun. Move quietly to the sky. three people. Just stand like this. Tu Ma Gu said: "You haven't said the purpose of your coming here yet?" Zhang Xiaofan asked: "Clan Chief, I heard that people have been missing mysteriously in your place recently, and there are also some people from Fenxiang Valley haunting you, right?"
Tuma Gu replied: "Yes, it is indeed the case. I am still wondering if you cultivators in China are doing something else." Lin Jingyu replied: "This is what we came here for. , then Patriarch, can you tell us what happened?"
Tu Ma Gu nodded and said: "That's no problem, I'll just tell you about it." So Tu Ma Gu told Zhang and Lin what had happened these days. "This is what happened." After Tu Ma Gu finished speaking, the two of them fell into deep thought. Lin Jingyu looked at Zhang Xiaofan and asked, "What do you think?" Zhang Xiaofan looked into the distance and said, "It seems that those who are missing The people must have been arrested by the people from Fenxiang Valley." Lin Jingyu said: "But why did they arrest so many people?"
At this time, Zhang Xiaofan remembered the conversation he heard with Jin Ping'er at the Xuanhuo Altar that day, and said slowly: "Blood sacrifice!" "What!?" Lin Jingyu and Tuma Gu were both shocked.
Blood sacrifice is to use the resentment in the blood of living people to gather nearby Yin spirits to strengthen the power of formations or weapons. However, this method is too cruel and is despised by people in the righteous way, but it is despised by the demon sect. People use them to make use of them, so there are a lot of Yin spirit magic weapons.
"Blood sacrifice..." Lin Jingyu was also frightened and said, "Xiaofan, are you telling the truth?" Zhang Xiaofan nodded and said, "Yes, I heard Yun Yi with my own ears. Lan said so." Tu Magu said: "In that case, they want to use the power of the blood of living people to strengthen the power of the Eight Evils Mysterious Fire Formation."
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Clan leader, can you let us see the great wizard? I want to ask him something." "Of course, come with me." After that, he led the two of them to the altar. The altar here is still the bloodstained and gloomy cave, and those solemn Miao soldiers still stand on both sides of the passage. It's just that the former great wizard is no longer here, and his replacement is a new wizard in his thirties.
After Zhang Xiaofan and others saw the great wizard, they told him what happened. After hearing this, the great wizard lowered his head and thought for a while, and said to Zhang Xiaofan in the Chinese language that was not very fluent: "According to legend, the Eight Ominous Mysterious Fire Arrays The formations are recorded in two places respectively, the Xuanhuo Altar in Fenxiang Valley and the Ancient Demon Suppressing Cave in Southern Xinjiang. Now that both of these places have been destroyed, there is no way to summon the Eight Evils Xuanhuo Formation in this world, so It can only be stimulated with blood.”
Tu Magu said: "What we are talking about is just speculation, and there is no real evidence, so we can't do anything to them." Lin Jingyu said: "It's not too late, let's go to Fenxiang Valley to have a look." Zhang Xiaofan said: "Well, that's fine, let's go and take a look." After speaking, the two of them walked out of the cave. When they came out, there was a cry from behind: "Mr. Zhang, please stay." "Zhang Xiaofan turned around and saw Tu Ma Gu coming to him. He took out two strings of bells from his arms and handed them to them. He said: "This bell is a treasure handed down from the Miao people. It is called Gu Bell. You can wear it on your waist. on, just for making contact. "
Zhang Xiaofan smiled when he heard this and said: "Thank you then." He turned to Lin Jingyu and said: "Let's go." After saying that, he disappeared in front of him. Lin Jingyu looked intently into the distance, couldn't help but sigh, and said to himself: "I wonder if I can achieve such a level of cultivation?" Then he took up the Dragon-Slaying Sword and turned into a ray of blue light. The Incense Valley flies away.
Not long after they took off, the bells on their waists rang. Lin Jingyu said: "Xiaofan..." Zhang Xiaofan said: "Oh no, go back!" After that, the two of them went. Flying back in the direction of the altar.
At this time, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared on the altar - Shangguan Ce. At this moment, only Tuma Gu was left in the altar looking at him. Tuma Gu also knew that Shangguan Ce had come with bad intentions, so Bian cautiously asked: "Who are you, and why do you come to my Miao altar?"
Shangguan Ce replied: "It doesn't matter who I am, you just need to answer my questions." "Oh?" Tu Ma Gu was stunned for a moment, and asked without thinking much, "Then what do you want to know? ?”
Shangguan Ce asked in a low voice: "Is there no place in this world where the Eight Ominous Mysterious Fire Formations are recorded?" Tu Ma Gu kept looking at the man in front of him, and said for a long time: "No more, unless we use the weapon of a living person. Summon with blood."
"Thank you. I've finished asking my questions. Then you can go and die." After saying this, Shangguan Ce turned around and flicked his right hand, hitting Tuma Gu on the chest with his palm. Tuma Gu immediately fell to the ground with a mouthful of blood. squirt. "You, you..." He died before he could finish his words. Shangguan Ce looked at the sky desperately, then turned into a ray of light and flew away.
Shortly after Shangguan Ce left, Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu fell from the sky with two "swish" sounds. Lin Jingyu leaned down and gently pushed Tuma Gu who was lying on the ground. Zhang Xiaofan who was standing aside asked, "How is it?" Lin Jingyu looked up at him and shook his head helplessly. Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath and said: "We are still a step late..."
Qingyun Mountain Tongtian Peak Yuqing Hall
When Song Daren arrived at Yuqing Hall, some people were already standing here. He knows all these people, and everyone present knows in their hearts that the friends standing here now, the once high-spirited companions, are now able to take charge of their own affairs.
Among the crowd, the most outstanding ones were the two people. One was naturally the cold and charming Lu Xueqi, and the other was the extraordinary Qi Hao. Speaking of which, the heads of the other three veins have not yet arrived, and they are also the first to reach Tongtian Peak.
As soon as Song Daren saw Lu Xueqi, he couldn't help but think of Zhang Xiaofan, and wondered whether he should ask about the situation of the seventh child who was once the most unlucky in Dazhu Peak. But looking at Lu Xueqi's still calm and calm face and her face that could overwhelm a country. I don't know where the appearance came from, but I felt a sense of inferiority. When the words came to my mouth, I choked back and accidentally coughed a few times. .
Wen Min, who was standing next to Lu Xueqi, was really angry and funny when she saw her husband's embarrassment at the moment. He glared at the leader of Dazhu Peak and said angrily: "I have asked you about your good junior brother, you see. Seeing how promising you are, I will be unlucky for eight lifetimes by following you."
"Xiaofan is fine...well, he just went down the mountain with Junior Brother Lin recently." Speaking of Zhang Xiaofan, Lu Xueqi's unchanging face showed a rare shyness and a faint smile. This moment of magnificence has already made Chu Yuhong and Taoist Feiyun who had just arrived from Chaoyang Peak and Luoxia Peak feel disturbed by it. Zeng Shushu next to him didn't even blink, and sighed secretly in his heart, "Three Eyes" Spirit monkey, Nine Heaven Fairy, this may be God’s compensation for Xiaofan’s injustice.” People couldn’t help but sigh.
At this time, suddenly the sound of bells and cauldrons rang in the main hall, and everyone immediately stood in silence. After a while, the leader Xiao Yi came out, glanced at everyone, said hello with a smile, and sat down on the main seat. He said loudly: "Everyone, I invite you to come here today. I have something to discuss with you."
When he said this, the people below suddenly frowned. Xiao Yicai coughed slightly and continued: "Recently, people have disappeared in the southern Xinjiang area, and there are also some people from Fenxiang Valley who frequently appear there. I suspect that they are in Plot something."
Someone below said: "Hmph, it seems they still don't give up and want to replace me, Qingyun Sect, as the number one in the righteous path." Xiao Yicai said: "So some time ago, I sent Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Brother Lin to investigate. If If that’s the case, I’m afraid we’ll have another big war.”
Everyone pondered, if such a day really comes, then there may be a loss of lives and rivers of blood...
