In Maoxi Town, the night fog is hazy, the stars and the moon are ups and downs, and the streets are deserted, and there is no anger at all. This town is very large, as if influenced by the fame of Maoshan Mountain, and this place looks particularly rich, and the area of the town is more than five times that of the towns encountered in the past. It's as big as two county seats, but the town is still a town after all, the streets are sparse and scattered, so the whole looks atmospheric, but in fact, these are all piles of faces, the gap is very large, walking in the middle, giving people an unusually cold feeling.

Inexplicably inhaled a trace of cold air, I couldn't help but shiver, looked around, and didn't seem to feel anything else, except for cold, it was still cold. The crooked street in front of him was where Master had just disappeared, and he was looking for a scream coming from the end of the front. The scream, like the cry of a person when he is dying, despair, endless despair......

There are dead people in this place, and it is a tragic death, as you can imagine, the matter is not trivial. Master didn't let me come out, but he was also protecting me, and without knowing it, if Master and I were both involved in that unknown tragedy, I am afraid it would be very disadvantageous. In addition, we have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders, and I should not rush out rashly with all the ideas, often if I don't listen to Master's advice, it seems that something will happen.

But I'm very worried about Master, I don't know why, when it comes to cultivation, there are almost very few people in the world who can compare with Master, and in terms of self-preservation, I'm also 108,000 miles away from Master, so if Master can't do anything, I don't even think about it.

In the past, when Master acted alone, I didn't worry at all, but this time, I couldn't tell clearly, since the moment Master rushed out of the inn, my heart has been tugging, inexplicably, for no reason, just a strong uneasiness in my heart, as if something ominous is going to happen, and it should be on Master's body. In Master's ways, I don't believe anything will happen to Master, but I'm afraid I feel this way......

Gritting my teeth, I resolutely searched in the direction where Master had disappeared.

Blood!

Not far away, I suddenly saw a smear of blood on the ground, these blood stains were still fresh, as if they had just dripped on the ground, and they were terrifyingly red! I bent down to take a closer look, and found that there were still blood stains in front of me, so I walked quickly forward in search of the blood stains, and after a short time, I suddenly stopped. But in a desolate clearing, there were three corpses that had died tragically, and these blood stains seemed to have flowed from those corpses.

Master, he was standing in front of the three corpses, staring at the corpses without blinking, his face was especially terrifying, it was anger! I rarely saw Master's angry expression, I opened my mouth slightly, and looked at the three corpses again, and looked carefully, I was shocked to find that these three corpses seemed to be wearing loose cyan robes, and there were cyan long swords scattered around their hands!

These deceased people are Taoist priests?

Don't......

I suddenly raised my head, and quickly ran to me, opening my mouth to ask, "Master, these three deceased people, are they disciples of our Maoshan faction?" "It stands to reason that this place is the ancestral court of the Maoshan faction, so the Taoist priests in this area should be the disciples of the Maoshan faction. Of course, it is not excluded that disciples from other sects have traveled here, but I still directly asked Master as a disciple of Maoshan. Because what can make the master so angry, unless these dead people are Maoshan disciples.

As one of the leaders of the Maoshan Sect, how could Master not be angry when he saw the disciples of the sect suffering?

Master turned his head to look at me, but asked in astonishment, "Ergou, why are you here?" Didn't being a teacher let you stay in the inn? Alas! "At the end, Master actually sighed deeply, this sigh confused me, I was worried about Master's safety, come out to see what's wrong? In the past, Master also took me to remove the Demon Guardian Dao, why did he not treat me so much this time?

Without waiting for me to ask the reason, the master hurriedly glanced around, and said another sentence that made me scratch my head: "The disciples of the Maoshan Sect are suffering, this is not a trivial matter!" And this incident happened at the foot of the Maoshan faction, and the murderer was so vicious, it can be seen that the Maoshan faction is not taken seriously! However, this is not the most critical thing at the moment, the most critical thing at the moment is that the murderer has long disappeared, and only you and I are left, and the three deceased, you must know that the current Maoshan faction is controlled by Gu Tan, and he wants to suppress him as a teacher everywhere, this time our purpose is to prevent him from getting the "Divine Ghost Oracle", then, if someone sets a trap for our master and apprentice now, the result can be imagined! ”

"Huh? Master, I, I, I didn't think of this, I thought you were the tantric master of the Maoshan faction, no one would dare to frame him casually, right? But Master, you just mentioned Gu Tan, then, it's hard to say......"

My heart instantly rose to my throat, Master was right, Gu Tan now hates Master to the bone, it just so happened that this time I encountered a tragedy, and this is the dilemma that Gu Tan set up for Master to kill him. The purpose is to prevent us from going to the Maoshan faction to prevent him from getting the "Divine Ghost Oracle", if this is really a trap, then the master will definitely not be able to tell. Once Gu Tan splashes this basin of dirty water on the master's body, what can the common people distinguish? It's not just what it says.

The master frowned, glanced at the three corpses with a pale face, and then said in a low voice: "These three corpses seem to have been sucked dry of blood and died, could it be that those things broke the seal?" Master was muttering alone in the same place, not knowing what to say, it was obvious that he had put life and death out of the way, and even, even if it was a trap, he didn't care, but was very focused on investigating the cause of death of these three corpses.

Soon, the master suddenly raised his head, quietly as if he had thought of something, turned his head to me and said urgently, "Someone is coming...... Two dogs, you go! They know the teacher, but they haven't seen you, as long as Gu Tan and Shangguan Jin can't see you, the rest of the Maoshan disciples won't know you, you have to put aside the relationship with the teacher now, hide in the dark, the whereabouts of the teacher have been exposed, you can replace the teacher, find out the cause of death of these deceased, find the murderer, and eliminate the demon guard! ”

"Master, who's here? Why are you so worried? I, I'm going to leave you? But ......"

"Don't be! The person who came was Yan Zhaolin, the deacon of the Maoshan Sect Discipline Hall, he was Gu Tan's second disciple, the Tao was not under Shangguan Jin, and there were thirty-six disciples under him, and he was quite powerful in the sect, you must avoid him, and he would go to Maoshan to send him to the pavilion later. ”

The master interrupted me, and suddenly said, "Also, when Gu Tan saw Wei Shi, he must have known that you also came to the Maoshan Sect, and presumably he will send someone to look for you soon after." Well, you will change your face in the future, don't call Li Ergou! ”

"Uh...... Master, what is my name? By the way, my Dao name is manifest, but Master didn't give me a name......"

I was stunned and lowered my head and said.

Master stretched out his hand and touched my head, and said in a rare gentle voice: "I haven't given you a name, because you haven't really returned to the Maoshan faction to worship the ancestor master, and now you are in a hurry, and you are already close to the Maoshan faction, your Taoist name is called Xianchu......

"Li Xianchu?"

I was stunned, for some reason, when I heard this name, I suddenly thought of the seventh senior brother of the first year, there is a first character in the name of the seventh senior brother of the first year, does the master mean that the name was chosen for me...... Master has been thinking about Senior Brother? Slowly raising my head, looking at the slightly haggard Master, my heart was sour, and I immediately knelt in front of the Master, kowtowed three times, nodded and admitted: "Disciple, thank you Master for the name!" ”

"You are dangerous and unpredictable alone, you must be careful!"

Master looked at me deeply and immediately said, "Go ahead." ”

"Master...... Then after your old man returns to the Maoshan faction, be careful, Gu Tan is insidious and cunning, I don't know how to deal with the master, and the master is now in the light, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult than me...... The apprentice can't help you much, but if you need it, you old man know how to find me! ”

I stood up, stared at Master as well, and walked away.

Maybe it's the darkness before dawn, but the fog is thicker now. Although I left Master, I didn't go far, because I was worried that Master had really fallen into Gu Tan's trap, and Master asked me to find out the cause of death of the three deceased people and the murderer, so I couldn't go too far. In addition, I now want to know what kind of character Yan Zhaolin, another disciple of Gu Tan, is.

I was hiding at a street corner far away from Master, and there was a big family with two stone lions at the door, and I was hiding behind one of them, staring at everything outside. After a while, I heard a few hurried footsteps, and I came to the master from far and near.

There were three people who came, and the first one was a young man in a black robe, who was about thirty years old, with a cold complexion, sword eyebrows, and a majestic and aggressive body. Presumably he is Yan Zhaolin, the deacon of the Maoshan Sect Discipline Hall that the master said! The other two young disciples followed closely behind him, one on the left and one on the right, all three of them were wearing talisman swords, as if they were an orthodox Daoist sect.

But the arrival of this person made me very uneasy in my heart, Gu Tan's disciple must be speaking to Gu Tan, and rejecting the Tantric branch.

Unexpectedly, after seeing the master, this deacon Yan Zhaolin was first shocked, and then looked at the three deceased people present in astonishment, and immediately saluted the master with a fist, and said respectfully: "Junior Yan Zhaolin, I have seen Uncle Yang!" ”
