459 Gou Zhu hides on a desert island, and Uncle calculates a mystery
On the surface of Tianchi Lake, Lin Mei'er found that the Crane Clan Flying Army in the air had begun to patrol in all directions, and there were also garrison ships near Lingbo Island behind her, and some were still coming in her direction. The monitor lizard she was piloting was too big to be abandoned.
Fortunately, she is familiar with the area. With a little more time, she will be able to find a desert island where no one can settle down and hide for the time being. The black-scaled monitor lizard will naturally lure the pursuers away into the distance.
At this time, she heard a sound of water, and when she looked back, the man behind her had disappeared into the water.
"Hey, what are you doing, are you going to commit suicide by throwing yourself into the water?"
Although she didn't know who this person was or where she came from, she could never lose any trace of this person. Regardless of the old and unserious master's insistence that this is the person who responded to the catastrophe of the Crane Clan, the red-crowned crown on his body alone is so important that he must not leave her sight.
She had to send a divine message to the black-scaled monitor lizard, telling it to go in a direction that had nothing to do with what she wanted to go to lure away the pursuers, and she took a deep breath, jumped into the lake, and used her divine sense to go to the bottom of the lake to find the whereabouts of the other man.
As a type of water bird, the crane tribe does not need to avoid water droplets, and can dive into the water for a long time with her physical body. But the water of the lake was cold to the bone, and she couldn't help but shiver when she first entered the water. At this time, the sky was a little bright, and the bottom of the lake was extremely deep and dark.
She used the power of qi and blood to raise her eyesight to the limit, and she could only see the abyss below, as dense as a forest, like a ghost rippling at the bottom of the lake.
Although the man was an aquarist, he did not swim in the water like a fish, but was clumsy like a human, and his posture and speed were not even as good as hers. After a while, she couldn't cry or laugh. Because the man was entangled in water and weeds underneath, and was struggling in panic.
Actually, this is not surprising. This Tianchi is a place where the aura gathers, and the aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake have also absorbed the spiritual energy, and many aquatic plants have already become foreign grasses. It is strange that outsiders have entered their sphere of influence, and they are not strange.
Lin Mei'er spread her wings slightly behind her back to push the current, as if flying in the water, and easily reached the place where the aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake were luxuriant.
A large patch of dark green aquatic plants looked up like frightened snakes, and bunches raised their heads. But Lin Mei'er swept away with the power of the Void Pill Divine Sense, and these aquatic plants immediately withered, turned into dead things, and drifted down the river.
She pulled out a sharp silver short blade and cut off the aquatic plants that were entangled in the hook one by one. It's not that Gou Zhu doesn't have a sharp blade on his body, it's just that he is entangled all over his body, and even his mouth is stuffed with water and weeds, and he can't move.
"What are you doing here?" asked Lin Mei'er.
"Looking for something. ”
Gou replied hastily, took out the Sky Destroying Blade and held it in his hand, rummaged through the water and grass at the bottom of the lake, and finally fished out a bundled scroll, stuck it in his belt, and then turned and swam towards the lake.
"Is it her hiding vessel?" asked Lin Mei'er. From this person's expression, and then remembering that the coercion of the two Jindan divine senses in the air disappeared, Lin Mei'er could roughly guess what it was, "Is she okay?"
"Hurt, but it's fine. It's winding outside, so find a safe place to heal. Do you know where it's safe?" Gou Zhu didn't dare to go back to Tianchi City. But he is not familiar with this area, and there is no other way for the time being except to rely on Lin Mei'er to continue to guide.
"You know, you just follow me. ”
The two of them didn't dare to fly, they didn't even dare to use their true qi recklessly, suppressed their breath, and swam silently for dozens of miles. Lin Mei'er is fine, but she is exhausted. In the middle of the day, they finally swam to an island. Gou Zhu struggled to climb ashore and looked around.
This island is only a mile in circumference, overgrown with wild grass, without any houses, at first glance it is an uninhabited desert island, far away from all the other islands of Tianchi City, and far from the shore of Tianchi. The surrounding water was as tranquil as a reflective jasper under a bright white sun, and there were no boats passing by.
Gou Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, immediately took out the Natal Bottle, took a drop of liquid from each of the two bottles of Ziqing and took it, and changed his breath again.
As long as he hides here with peace of mind, Lian Ling and his safety will be no problem for the time being. I just don't know when Lian Ling will recover.
What made him strange was this Lin Mei'er, how could he know that he was holding the strange thing that Xiao Sufeng gave him, and how could he save him several times?
Only then did he feel sore, and as soon as he lay down on the dry barren grass on the shore, he couldn't get up, and could only look at the sky and gasp.
......
The time when the Crane King returned to the Crane King Mountain was earlier, when it was just dawn, the east was blood-red, and the half-round red sun had already shown its head. His face was ugly all the way. He was about to go back to the dormitory, but he saw a group of people gathered in front of the mountain gate and kneeling on the ground.
"They are from the Lin family. In addition to thanking His Majesty for saving Lin Ruo'er from the martyrdom of Elder Taishang, he also sent a batch of tributes and asked His Majesty to let them bring Lin Ruo'er back. ”
The Lin family is quite good at taking measure. One night was enough time for the Crane King to finish what he wanted to do, and they came early in the morning to receive the people.
If the night has passed, and they still can't get people back, then the Crane King will have to give an explanation. Of course, the women of their Lin family can't be nameless when they stay in Hewang Mountain, at least they have to be crowned concubines. In this way, the Lin family has naturally become his Crane King's in-laws.
It's a pity that the Crane King didn't do anything this night, but fought viciously repeatedly, physically and mentally exhausted, and he didn't catch the key criminal, and he temporarily lost interest in Lin Ruoer, and it was impossible to give a name, so he could only release him.
"Let them take people away. ”
With a flick of his sleeves, the Crane King himself walked straight to the palace. Lin Mei'er has caused him huge trouble, but his throne is not stable, and now he doesn't want to offend a big family like the Lin family too quickly.
At the same time, he can't let the Lin family easily get the status he wants, and the things that are easy to get will not be cherished.
Uncle followed closely, while following the footsteps of the Crane King, he hurriedly said in the back: "Your Majesty, the matter of Lin Mei'er and the Danding Crown, the old minister has something to say." ”
The Crane King was in a bad mood. This night's hard work was all Uncle's plan, but nothing came of it. At this time, except for the shrewd and experienced uncle, there was no one else who could give him advice on this matter, which made him particularly depressed.
He didn't stop, just said impatiently: "If you have something to say, say it." ”
"Lao Chen thought about it, the reason why the red-crowned crown was not found in those lot materials was because the red-crowned crown was not auctioned at all. It's just that the person who holds the red-crowned crown is going to the auction, so Lin Meier followed it and went......"
"So what? Didn't you search everyone and they didn't find it?"
"That's because they broke through and fled. Uncle said in a deep voice, "When we took stock, we found that although there were many dead and injured at the auction, except for the Qing Pingzi who fought with His Majesty, only four people broke through. ”
"Oh?" the Crane King paused, "Even if you know that this Lin Mei'er is among these four, there is no way to find them now." ”
"I think these four people, including Lin Mei'er, are likely to be a group. Their purpose was to enter the Ginseng Garden with a red-crowned crown. This matter is such a coincidence, it cannot be ruled out that it is He Heng's backhand. ”
"How do you know?" the Crane King paused, secretly shocked in his heart. If that's the case, it's a big problem. There is a Lingfei Source Prison in the Lingshen Garden, and there is the former Crane King He Yuyin in the prison that he least wants to see. If He Yuyin is still alive and gets the Danding Crown, then his throne will be completely over.
But thinking about it on the other hand, if someone gets the red-crowned crown and wants to make trouble, I'm afraid the only way is to go to He Yuyin.
He Heng died, and the whereabouts of the red-crowned crown are unknown. The Crane King had already urgently ordered all the Purple Mansion monks in the Crane Clan in Taibai Forest, all who were able to move, to come to the Crane King Mountain to listen to the order.
The number of Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators in the entire Crane tribe is actually not much, and there are only more than thirty people. Now ninety percent of these people have gathered at Hewang Mountain. There are still a few who really can't get out, and the Crane King also sent someone to keep an eye on it.
The red-crowned crown is not something that any crane demon can use. It must be a Purple Mansion Demon Cultivator of the Taibai Mountain Crane Clan's bloodline to use it. Those who meet this condition are none other than He, Lin, Li, and Wang, and all the Purple Mansion Demon Cultivators have already been registered. As long as the Crane King watches these people to the death, even if others get the red-crowned crown, there is no one who can use it.
This is only a temporary solution. He couldn't keep an eye on these people all his life. After all, only when he finds the crown can he be the true lord of the crane clan, and he can realize his great cause with peace of mind.
"Lao Chen also guessed, but I'm afraid that ninety percent of them may be so. Uncle bowed his head and replied. He failed to arrest Lin Meier this time, his calculation failed, and his speech became much more low-key.
"If you want to enter the Spirit Ginseng Garden, the best way is to participate in the Demon Ginseng Conference in a few days, and a letter of recommendation is essential. At this auction on Limbo Island, there happened to be two letters of recommendation sold. Not only that, but we searched everyone's belongings at the auction and found all the other lots. Only the whereabouts of the three Immortal Killing Arrows and this pair of letters of recommendation are unknown......"
"You're saying that the letters of recommendation are on the runaways?"
"Yes", Uncle nodded.
Lao Chen dared to guess that if it was just two letters of recommendation, it was not worth their desperate escape. They must have some plan to do with the red-crowned crown, knowing that it will touch the root of my crane clan, so they desperately escaped.
"Not only that, but one of the two fish demons that Your Majesty has seen, one of them is the Jindan Banshee who fought with Your Majesty, and it was they who took those two letters of recommendation and three Killing Immortal Arrows. One of the letters of recommendation was reportedly resold to two other people. The whereabouts of the two men are now unknown. ”
"So that Jindan female cultivator is also related to this matter?" the Crane King raised his eyebrows, "Go through all the fish clans in the Eastern Demon Realm for me, especially in the area of the Blood Lake, and be sure to find out their origins and whether they have anything to do with He Heng, the old thief." ”
Uncle said in a low voice: "This matter is arranged by the minister." But since they wanted to find He Yuyin ninety percent, it was better to plan and set up an ambush in the Lingshen Garden...... It's just that if that Jindan banshee is still alive, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with. ”
"I'll talk about that later. The Crane King hung his left hand, and his face became more and more ugly. He left his uncle behind and walked straight into his bedroom. He reluctantly took off the black gloves he was wearing on his left hand, revealing a left hand that was full of holes and bleeding.
"Lin Mei'er, Qingpingzi!" he couldn't help but let out a vicious curse in his heart.
