Qingcun Mountain is tens of thousands of miles wide, although there are thousands of monks who enter this mountain, but they are like stones thrown into the sea, and the slightest wave cannot be lifted.

When Zhang Yan and his party went to Jiutou Peak, they could still see a few rays of light at first, but after walking for a long time, they couldn't see half a figure.

There are nine walls on the Jiutou Peak and the majestic mountain rocks, you can see it from afar, there is a high crown Taoist and said with a smile: "The number of Jiutou Mountain is nine, and now we are also nine people, isn't it a metaphor for today's fortune on us?"

Hearing this, Bao Dingheng smiled loudly and said, "Gao Daoyou has wonderful words. ”

The crowd fled as fast as they could, and by noon they had reached the middle of the mountain, where Zuihou stood on a high rock.

At this time, among the people, there was a hunchbacked old man with a weathered face who walked a few steps on this mountain rock, looked around a few times, and saw the surrounding green vine weeds coming out of the cracks in the stone, and sometimes there were a few frolicking apes hanging on the mountain vine and old withering swaying back and forth, and couldn't help nodding with satisfaction, and said, "It's very good here." ”

He untied a burden from his back, took out a stone plate from it, and put an incense stick on it, and put his wrinkled hand up, and when he let it go again, the incense was lit, and a white smoke came straight up.

This smoke is like substance, even if the gust of mountain wind comes, it is not moving.

Zhang Yan has been paying attention to this person since he came to these people.

Listening to what Bao Dingheng said before, calling this person "Shi Gong", seeing that he used a magic weapon when he fled, he knew that this person was just a clear qi cultivator, and his breath was obscure, mixed and impure, obviously not from the Xuanmen Sect, but this person was not cowardly at all in front of everyone.

And what is particularly strange is that this old man's cultivation cannot be compared with that of Xuanguang Monk, so he always has to stop and regulate his qi pulse on the way, and the other people not only have no objection to this, but also intentionally or unintentionally protect him in the middle, as if he is an extremely important person.

Don't look at Bao Dingheng leading everyone all the way, but whenever he makes a move, he will show a look of inquiry and inquiry.

At this moment, when Zhang Yan saw his actions, he was already sure that this old man must have a secret method, and he could find the whereabouts of that Qizhi!

No wonder Bao Dingheng looked confident before, even if there were two more people, he didn't care, and he thought it was because of this old age.

Shi Gong squinted at the wisp of white smoke, and moved the stone plate under it from time to time, and looked up at the sky every once in a while.

This was an hour, but no one around showed an anxious and impatient look, and Fang Qi's eyes looked at the white smoke for a moment, and his fingers kept clasping the back of his hand, with a faint expectation in his expression.

Although Ke Xiujun didn't understand what she meant, she belonged to the latecomers in this line of people, and she was a junior, Bao Dingheng didn't say anything, and she didn't want to ask questions, but she also vaguely guessed the role of this old man, and she also watched it for a moment.

After another hour, Shi Xiangong's cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a fine light, and the white smoke changed slightly, as if it was being pulled southward.

Fang Yu was the most excited, and hurriedly came up and said, "Shi Gong, is it ......?"

Shi Gong glanced at him lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, wait." ”

Fang Qi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

Half an hour later, but seeing that the white smoke seemed to be pulled violently, and then drifted to the west, Shi Gong's expression moved, and he said excitedly: "I found it! With such a large wood spirit qi, I am afraid that this medicinal mushroom is no less than fifteen." ”

As soon as he heard this, everyone present was excited, but Bao Dingheng was the most calm one among them, and he came up to the old man and asked, "Dare to ask Shi Gong, what should I do next?"

Shi Gong stroked the sparse white beard under his chin, thought for a while, looked at the white smoke again, and said, "Wait a little longer!" Yaozhi sees the yang and avoids, sees the yin and shrinks, and hides in the roots of the wood every day, only when the day and night intersect, it will break through the ground and absorb the aura, and it will not go back for a while, it is the safest to catch the party at this time, otherwise, hehe, it's not that I underestimate all of you, I'm afraid you may not be able to catch even one. ”

Bao Dingheng nodded and said, "Just listen to Shi Gong's arrangement." ”

Zhang Yan heard this, but secretly remembered it in his heart. He wanted to see how sure he could be in this old way.

He looked at the stone plate and the curved white smoke on it, and thought to himself, "I don't know if this thing is useful to Na Zhizu, but I can tap it on the side when I have the opportunity." ”

At this time, it was still early in the morning, and after listening to Bao Dingheng's words, everyone present dispersed separately and found a place to shelter from the wind and rain to meditate.

Until the ugly hour, Shi Gong suddenly saw the white smoke tremble, but his face changed, he lifted the stone plate, and said, "Bao Daochang, come with the old man quickly." ”

Bao Dingheng was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly let go of the retreat, and the rest of the people were also alarmed, and they all took off into the air without waiting for orders.

Fang Yu exclaimed, "It's not good, someone is one step ahead." ”

He turned his head and asked sharply, "Shi Gong, didn't you say that no one except you knows how to search for medicinal mushrooms?"

Shi Gong's face sank like water, and he just snorted.

Bao Dingheng didn't panic, he waved his sleeves and said, "Senior Brother Fang, what nonsense are you talking about, Shi Gong's ability is unique in the world." Although this nine-headed peak is vast, there must be many monks who come here to search, I am afraid that it is just a coincidence. ”

Fang Qi said in a strange voice: "Yes, this nine-headed peak is so big, we have never seen a person before, but why did we hit it now?"

When Bao Dingheng heard this, he also frowned, but Shi Gong stood there expressionless, and he didn't say anything to defend himself.

Zhang Yan glanced ahead a few times, but said with a smile: "I thought that pedestrian was here by chance, please take a look." He pointed ahead and said, "Those escapes are uncertain, clueless, just indiscriminate, if they really find the hiding place of that Yaozhi, and they don't even have time to cover up their whereabouts, where will there be such fanfare?"

Bao Dingheng's eyes lit up, turned his head to look at Zhang Yan, and agreed: "Li Daoyou is right. ”

When everyone heard this, they also felt that Zhang Yan was reasonable, and they all nodded yes, and their hanging thoughts were slightly relaxed.

That Shi Gong also glanced at him and nodded slightly to him.

Fang Qi snorted and said, "In this case, I need to hurry up and drive this group of people away, so as not to alarm Yao Zhi." ”

Bao Dingheng glanced at it and sneered: "You don't have to wait for me to look for it, they are already here." ”

Sure enough, there was a light in the sky coming here, and when it came to this group of people, it stopped and revealed a monk with short hair and broad shoulders, and this person opened his mouth with a loud voice that made the birds fly away, and said: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be Senior Brother Bao and Senior Brother Fang, it is just a coincidence, here I and a few colleagues have arrived first, and it has been circled, you should wait and go elsewhere." ”

Before Bao Dingheng could speak, Fang Yu had already jumped out, pointed at this person and scolded: "Lan Yuchun, it turns out that you are an outcast, hmph, I have already arrived here first, and if you want to get out, you will get out!"

Lan Yuchun hahadaxiao said, "Fang Yu, you are in such a hurry, could it be that you have found out that there is a medicinal mushroom here?"

Hearing this, Fang Qi's voice couldn't help but stagnate.

Lan Yuchun originally just said a joke, you need to know that this medicine is extremely difficult to find, and he can really only hit the luck, but now seeing Fang Yu's expression, he couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart, and secretly said: "Mo is there really a medicine mushroom here?"..., and then he secretly sighed again, and said: "No matter what he does so much, just drive them away." ”

He smiled and said, "Senior Brother Bao, if you have to occupy this place, then come and have a fight with us first, and I, Lan Yuchun, are waiting for you in front!

After he finished speaking, he did not dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly retreated to the forest in front of him, apparently to join his companions.

Fang Qi stomped his feet and said, "Senior brother, why don't you leave him behind?"

Bao Dingheng frowned, he looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said slowly: "Shi Gong, if I do it here, will I scare Yao Zhi away?"

Shi Gong pondered for a moment and sighed: "Bao Daochang can only try to fight for it now, the old man can see that these individuals don't know how to find Yaozhi at all, but just rely on hearsay to break around, if that Qizhi is really disturbed and hibernation underground, I am afraid that it may not come out if it is another ten days and a half months." ”

When Bao Dingheng heard these words, he made a decision in his heart, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and said: "It seems that the only way to do this is to remove all these people, then Lan Yuchun is an outcast sent by me, and I Bao Dingheng is going to clean up the portal today, are you Taoist friends willing to help me?"

Fang Yu agreed very quickly, and said, "I naturally follow Senior Brother. He looked around again and said, "What about you?"

Ke Xiujun immediately said: "What Uncle Bao says is what it is. ”

The remaining four people hesitated a little, and the high-crowned Daoist said: "A few of us don't know the grievances in your sect, but we have also heard that although this Lan Yuchun is an outcast of your Yuanyang faction, he is still valued by the real person of Wufeng in your faction, will it ...... kill this person?"

Bao Dingheng naturally heard the unfinished meaning of his words, and he said aloud: "The concerns of all Daoists also know that Lan Yuchun doesn't need to bother Daoists, and Poor Dao can solve it by himself. ”

As soon as these words came out, the remaining four people all breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at each other, and said in unison: "I am willing to help Daoyou." ”

Bao Dingheng nodded, he called Ke Xiujun over, and told her to take good care of Shi Gong, and then, he turned his head to Zhang Yan and said: "Li Daoyou, please also ask you to guard outside, if you see someone escaping, you must not let anyone go." ”

Zhang Yan knew that Bao Dingheng had never seen him make a move, so he was not very relieved about him, so he made this arrangement.

But even if he is not chosen, someone needs to do it, he smiled slightly, and immediately nodded in response.

After Bao Dingheng finished a few words, he snorted, led everyone to ride away, and galloped away in the forest in front of him with a murderous spirit.

Zhang Yan rode the wind on the clouds, and looked down.

The forest was calm at first, but within a moment, I saw the light flashing in it, the sword and the treasure light came and went, and the angry sound was repeated, which showed the fierceness of the battle.

At this time, he suddenly heard a tremor, and there seemed to be thousands of rays of light flashing like silver snakes under the night, only to hear Bao Dingheng's shocked and angry voice coming out, and said, "Lan Yuchun, how can you have this sword in your hand?"

Lan Yuchun's arrogant voice also sounded, "Bao Dingheng, you can't think of me having such a move, right? In the past, you gave me a sword, and today I will get it back with interest!

As soon as Zhang Yan heard this, his eyes flashed, and he fled, and rushed to the forest below.
