Chapter 239: The Secret of the Desert Valley (Wan Geng)

"Do you smell blood?" Tang Jinshan said in a low voice.

Everyone mentioned their spirits, don't be a corpse that has been poisoned.

The miasma turned red, Zhan Changfeng stepped on the roots of the trees everywhere, felt a little uncomfortable, walked a few more steps, the smell of blood became heavier, looked around, and saw a strange scene.

But I saw a forest without leaves stretching its branches with its teeth and claws, and the bodies of the trees were all blood-red, and their trunks were all inlaid with human bodies, some with only one head exposed, some with their feet left, and some with half of their bodies melted away, as if they had grown together with the trees at first glance.

A faint moan drifted into his ears, and when Zhan Changfeng looked over, he saw a few people who were not yet completely dead with gray faces, looking at them blankly.

Feng Shanhai changed color, "This is a man-eating Gu tree." ”

"However, this is the exit of the maze, is there a way for Feng Daoyou to break out?" asked Zhan Changfeng.

Feng Shanhai groaned, his eyes flickering, "The Gu tree eats people and drinks blood, it is fierce and abnormal, and it is even more terrible when you are hungry, but today these people have taken the first step, they should have drunk blood, we should take advantage of this to break through." ”

Yes, what a coincidence. Zhan Changfeng was thoughtful.

"So what are you waiting for. Tang Jinshan sacrificed the defensive array on the magic robe, holding two wide axes, "I'll open the way, Zhan Daoyou, which direction are you going?"

"Swap bits. ”

"Good. Tang Jinshan stepped into the Gu Forest first, and the rest of the people followed.

The feet trembled, and the blood-drinking roots broke through the ground, dancing wildly, and Zhan Changfeng held a fan in the clouds, the fan blades were like knives, and cut the root of the tree that protruded closely, and the root fell to the ground, and blood seeped out.

"Don't do it, the more you provoke them, the heavier the attack!"

Everyone heard Feng Shanhai's shout, only Tang Jinshan, who opened the way, slashed the roots of the tree, and the others changed their offense to defense.

The roots of this tree are like dodder silk constantly winding and poking up, slippery and bloody, disgusting.

"It's coming soon, hold on!" Tang Jinshan had already seen the hole in the mountain wall not far away.

At this time, the tremor intensified, and Zhan Changfeng raised his eyes to see a ravine-like face on an extraordinarily thick Gu tree, roaring angrily and pulling up its roots and running towards them.

Zuo Zhuzhi was frightened, and pulled out the sun-chasing bow is three rockets, "Damn, this is a jing!"

Feng Shanhai was shocked, "It's the Alien Tree Demon, everyone be careful!"

The rocket was knocked down by the Gu Tree King's bare blood branches, and countless branches whipped at everyone, like a wild dragon dancing.

Lin Youxia offered out a blue and white umbrella, and the umbrella became larger and covered the top of their heads, "Hurry up, I can hold it for a while." ”

"Thank you Lin Daoyou!"

Zhan Changfeng and Tang Jinshan each took out their weapons and magic weapons to cut through the roots and branches of the trees blocking the road, and ran towards the narrow hole that was two people tall and two arms wide.

The magic light of the blue and white umbrella above his head gradually dimmed, and under the whip of the Gu Tree King, the umbrella surface cracked and crumbled, and Lin Youxia's face was pale and not very good.

"Is this your natal magic weapon?" Zuo Zhuzhi was surprised, and shot three more arrows at the Gu Tree King, these three arrows obviously used great force, directly piercing the Gu Tree King's three strong side branches, causing it to cry out in pain, "You are about to put away the umbrella." ”

Lin Youxia glanced at him gratefully, but did not put away the blue and white umbrella, and at this time they were also close to the entrance of the cave.

"This should be the exit, let's go!" Zhan Changfeng held a fan to cut the roots of the tree that were stabbed from the side, and dodged into the hole, followed by Tang Jinshan and Feng Shanhai.

This cave only allows one person to pass, and it will take time to complete it all, followed by Ding Zhao and a few people, and then Zuo Zhizhi and Lin Youxia, who pressed the formation.

After Ding Zhao and the others finished, he took a bow and shot arrows while chasing left, while urging, "Lin Daoyou, go quickly!"

"You go in first, I can still block it for a while!"

Seeing Lin Youxia's resolute attitude, Zuo Zhuzhi felt that there was such a righteous monk, and he would definitely make friends after this incident.

He immediately lowered himself into the cave, and watched Lin Youxia retreat towards the cave little by little, suddenly rising sharply, and a bloody branch pierced the blue and white umbrella and swept Lin Youxia away!

Zuo Zhuzhi was shocked, and hurriedly leaned out of the hole, only to see that the slender monk who didn't talk much was pierced through the chest of his limbs by several branches, held up in the air, his head hanging weakly, and he was already dead!

"Damn!" Zuo Zhizhi pulled up the Sun-Chasing Bow and shot ten arrows in a row, but he couldn't do anything, and sighed and drilled into the hole.

When the people in front heard Zuo Zhuzhi's scolding, they thought that Lin Youxia had an accident, but in the face of the Gu Tree that had escaped from the Mortal Realm, it was very good that they could get out, but now in addition to a pity, the only way to leave here is to leave here as soon as possible.

The group of Gu trees seemed to be afraid of this hole and did not get in, and Zhan Changfeng, who was in front of him, had already seen the light, but his face was slightly gloomy, and he tightened the fan in the clouds.

There are people outside the cave, and there are quite a few.

She walked a few steps against the wall, stopped, and glanced at Tang Jinshan behind her.

"What to do now, it's waiting for us to jump into the urn. ”

"There are two people who leave the position, nine people who are in the Kun position, five people who are in the exchange position, and one person who is hidden in the cadre position. Zhan Changfeng sensed their position, "I'll create chaos, you just have to do it." ”

"Listen, the people inside, your general is in my hands, come out obediently and be bound, and I won't hurt your life!" shouted in a rough voice.

Feng Shanhai hurriedly transmitted, "You can't mess around, the general is in their hands!"

Zhan Changfeng sensed again and decisively adjusted his strategy, "The general is exchanging positions, Tang Jinshan saves people, and the rest of the people just kill." ”

Ya was just doing it, but now it's killing!

Feng Shanhai didn't have time to say anything more, Zhan Changfeng threw out three earth-shaking thunders, this earth-shaking thunder was improved, and the ignition array was drawn on it, and the explosion was on touch, and the sound of explosion and pain immediately came from outside the hole, she rushed out of the hole, a sword Wanshi mirror, and ingested everyone into the red dust, Tang Jinshan followed closely to take the five people who took the position.

The group of people was blown up in a panic, there were many seriously injured people, and they were bound by the karma of the red dust, where could they escape, and when they saw that they were about to be hacked to death by Tang Jinshan, an angry shout came with the pressure of Defan, "If you dare to make a move, your general will be devoured by Gu worms!"

Through the smoke generated by the explosion, Tang Jinshan saw an old woman wearing silver jewelry and a blue cloth dress walking over, her face was full of majesty, and when she heard the burning thoughts, she didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

Ran Nian was wearing forbidden spirit shackles on her hands, if it weren't for this foundation building cultivation, she would have to be blown up half-body, she looked at the people all over the ground and screamed in pain, she couldn't help twitching the corners of her eyes, exhaled turbidity, patted her robe that was a little burnt, and stood up, "Everyone has something to say, everything can be solved." ”

"Yes, it can be solved, please trouble this senior to give an antidote, and by the way, put the forbidden spirit shackles on your hands, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

Zhan Changfeng grabbed a young man and came out from behind the tree, looked at Ran Nian expressionlessly, and then moved his gaze to the old woman, "Do as I say." ”

When the old woman saw the person in her hand, her brows trembled with anger, "The future will be rampant, I may spare you from death!"

Zhan Changfeng put a dagger against the young man's neck, and pulled out a token with a snake pattern from his arms, "It's not easy to cultivate a young master. ”

The familiar snake pattern, she should have thought of it a long time ago, the High Celestial Clan.

And this beautiful young man is also familiar, isn't it the same Wu Cheng back then.

When she had just attacked Wu Cheng, who was hiding behind a tree and watching, she suddenly recognized him and quickly took off the Mo Yu wrench, she didn't want to expose Yi Zhan's identity yet.

It's just that she threatened the old woman this time, and she also had to pay attention to the trouble in Wuxing Mountain, which was not dangerous.

Wu Cheng was sealed in the meridian acupoints, and he only felt the coldness in his neck, which suddenly aroused his fear more than three years ago, and his scalp suddenly became numb, and his grandfather's was actually held hostage again!

Hijacked again!

——

Half an hour ago

Burning Nian squeezed through the narrow hole and into the valley, the ground strewn with blood, and it never entered the fiery cloud-like maple forest at the end.

"You're here. ”

Ran Nian looked at the old woman who showed her figure out of thin air, and saluted, "Thank you for your cooperation." ”

The old woman was speechless, her eyes were vicissitudes, she stroked the black scorpion lying on the back of her hand, and said after a long time, "The valley has not seen the time change, it turns out that it has long been vicissitudes, the Bichan Sect, the Phantom Sea Mirage, and the Tianyan White Tiger have disappeared, and our clan should also come to this day." ”

"Why should the Wu patriarch mourn himself, with me waiting, the High Heaven Clan will not be annihilated, Zangyunjian will always have a place for the nobles, don't you agree to this plan to find a way for the nobles to survive?"

"Is there anything else I need to do?" Wu Yunling didn't seem to want to say much, and her expression was gloomy.

"I suspect that there are those forces in our group, and I will pretend to be captured later, and the nobles will ask them to take an oath and go into the secret realm to help the nobles take out that thing. ”

Wu Yunling disagreed, "Why bother with this effort." ”

Ran Nian shook his head, "My relationship with the nobles should not be exposed in front of them, besides, there are a few optimistic people in it, if I can use this to make them submit, it will kill two birds with one stone." ”

Thinking that she didn't like ordinary monks, this was to ask them to be bad people from the High Heaven Clan, Wu Yunling sighed, "This is not in our agreement. ”

"The patriarch doesn't have to hesitate, I am responsible for everything, and I won't let the nobles be embarrassed. ”

“....... That's fine. "In order to reincarnate the High Celestial Clan, there is no way back.

Half an hour later

Ran Nian felt Wu Yunling's blank glare, hmm....... Can she take back the words she can be responsible for?

Someone doesn't play cards according to the routine!

Why can't Feng Shanhai even stop this!

Feng Shanhai didn't dare to look at him, didn't he say that the Gu Tree level was easy to pass, why did the Gu Tree King appear! They were all enthusiastic, who could stop them!

At this time, Tang Jinshan, Zuo Zhuzhi, Ding Zhao and others were protecting Zhan Changfeng, knowing that this son was in hand, and he might be able to turn the situation around.

Wu Yunling wanted to stop angrily, if she let the clansmen and the young patriarch who was finally selected die, it was definitely what she didn't want to see, and this group of people listened to Rannian, it was not cost-effective to really fight to break the net, and immediately said, "Outsiders, I don't care what you invaded my clan's territory for, but if you dare to kill my clan, you will never want to go out!"

The territory of the High Celestial Clan?

Seeing that the miasma maze and the Gu forest are not new, could it be that this is the hometown of Wuxing Mountain, the ancestral land of the High Heaven Clan?

What is the so-called secret realm of Burning Thoughts?

Zhan Changfeng thought about it and said, "I think there is a misunderstanding between us, and the general is not a person who will trespass on the territory of other clans, but you have to make people resist with Gu intentions, so it is better to talk calmly, I think the general also has this intention." ”

Ran Nian could only follow, "There have been a lot of changes in the hidden cloud stream recently, we are chasing a few groups of thieves, if you cause trouble to the nobles, please understand." ”

"Then tell me why these groups are here and what you want to do. Wu Yunling's face was slightly pale, as if he was really troubled by the previous group of people.

"It's not easy to talk about this matter openly, I swear in the name of General Heshui City, we have no ill will towards the nobles, I don't know if we can discuss it in detail?"

Wu Yunling groaned slightly, "I can give you an explanation, but you should also come to our place as a guest." ”

Ding Zhao disagreed at first, he didn't say that there was a group of Gu poison players guarding the secret realm, or the strong man who was out of the ordinary, how to explore the secret realm, even if he explored, how to divide the mining rights!

He didn't want to say it openly on his face, and secretly questioned Ran Nian.

Ran Nian was also speechless, this Ding family really had a secret realm of mining in their hearts, and replied, "I haven't met these people in sneaking in before, and now the first thing is to get out." ”

"Since the nobles have invited us, it is not easy for us to refuse. Ran Nian looked at Zhan Changfeng and motioned for her to let go.

The dagger in Zhan Changfeng's hand was firmly against Wu Cheng's neck, "Don't blame me for being a villain first and then a gentleman, it's really a nobleman who is too powerful, so people have to take precautions, please make an oath that you will not do anything to us before we step out of Phoenix Ditch." ”

Wu Yunling was not happy at all when she was praised, and she didn't let these people make an oath, she was going to do it herself?!

The wind swept through the two sides, and after a moment of silence, Wu Yunling smiled coldly and swore an oath, "My High Heaven Clan sincerely invites you to be a guest, as long as you are not unfavorable to the High Heaven Clan, the High Heaven Clan should treat each other sincerely, do not move, and do not fall into Gu." ”

"Offended. Zhan Changfeng let go of his hand, Wu Cheng rubbed his neck and glared at her fiercely, and ran to Wu Yunling's side.

Wu Yunling broke away the shackles of Burning Nian, summoned the clansmen to send the injured person back for treatment, and then said, "Please." ”

Zhan Changfeng and his party followed behind the High Heaven Clan, and they rarely received dissatisfied and even hostile eyes, after all, they were injured by the explosion.

This round valley was full of low vegetation, there were no buildings, and it didn't look like it was inhabited, and it wasn't until Wu Yunling and Wu Cheng disappeared out of thin air that they realized that there was a strong invisible barrier here.

After passing through the barrier, there is a stilted building, wearing silver ornaments and wearing blue clothes of the Gaotian people can be seen everywhere, or fetching water and laundry, or sitting at the door of the house weaving bamboo baskets, or running and frolicking, sometimes there are dogs barking and chickens crowing, just like an ordinary village.

A few people screamed and ran over to help the injured people, "What's wrong, who was hurt?"

"Who are they?"

"Wow, is this an outsider?"

"Wu Brown, this is a new guest, you take them to the empty building to settle down first, so that they can be entertained, as for the general, please follow me to solve the Gu first. Wu Yunling said.

The tall man called Wu Brown smiled innocently, "A few guests come with me." ”

Zhan Changfeng and the others saw that Ran Nian agreed, so they didn't say anything, and followed Wu Brown to a stilted building.

Wu Brown was very enthusiastic, and brought them a lot of food after sending them to the stilted building, but how dare they take the things here to eat, smiled and greeted them a few words, and then sent them away under the pretext that they needed to rest.

Tang Jinshan said, "What should we do now, looking at the atmosphere here, the people who walked ahead of us don't seem to have discovered this place yet." ”

"But except for the maple forest in the east, the rest of the valley has an unobstructed view, and it is not possible to hide people, where did they go?" Zuo Zhuzhi also wondered.

Zhou Yongyuan and Luo Hua are nowhere to be seen, Shi Tianlu is dead, and among the three surnames, there is still a foundation Luo Wen brought by Luo Hua, Shi Tianlu's side of Shi Dare, and the Ding family is Ding Zhao.

The three surnames were most concerned about the ownership of the secret realm, and they ignored Zhan Changfeng and the others, and went to a certain room to mumble and discuss together.

Zhan Changfeng said to Tang Jinshan, "Let's wait for General Rannian to come back, let's go rest for a while and recuperate enough." ”

"It's okay, we're blind now, let's wait for the order. After Feng Shanhai finished speaking, he said goodbye and picked a vacant room to go in.

The rest of the people dispersed.

Zhan Changfeng entered the room on the right hand side of the first floor, there are wooden furniture in the room, and a bamboo screen separates the couch and the desk, although it is small but complete, the sound insulation is not very good, you don't need to listen deliberately, you can hear the sound of the windmill turning water outside the house.

Zhan Changfeng pushed open the bamboo door behind him, outside is the curved corridor of the ring building, looking over the windmill pumping water, the stilted buildings are by the mountain and the river, stacked up, like stars sprinkled in this valley, as if the hustle and bustle and glitz have been removed, and it has become a long precipitation, natural and comfortable - if you can face up to the characteristics of the high heavenly clan.

For example, there is a tree next to the stilted building on the right, and it seems to have strips of cloth hanging on it from a distance, but it is actually a poisonous snake.

The snakes were plucked out and hung from the trees, saliva and venom dripping slowly, and basins underneath. It should be the material for making some kind of Gu poison.

There is no doubt about Rannian's actions logically, but in her eyes, there is another loophole, and that is efficiency.

At the Heshui dinner, a few people with big surnames were selected to participate, and they were directed to Lianfang in batches, pretending to be a dart master on the way to drive away, although it could be explained by balancing the interests of various surnames and weakening the suspicion of the Inspector's Office, but ......

It's too inefficient, and that's why she felt something was wrong at first, and from her point of view, she wouldn't choose this way.

If you don't choose this way but choose it, it has another purpose.

The trailblazer who came up after them, the precursor who preceded them, seemed to have been deliberately led out of the way, or rather, she was trying to lure the group out.

I don't know what to do with the lead-out, but think about it the other way, why are they being brought out?

Zhan Changfeng sat on the bamboo bench at the door and looked at those snakes, they were snakes.

The source of everything is the stolen sword, the sword has a totem on it, and there is a serpentine pattern in the totem, if it is carried out alone, it is the emblem of the high heavenly clan.

But what does the purpose of those groups have to do with the High Celestial Clan?

Moreover, she suspected that Ran Nian and the High Heavenly Clan knew each other, and that kind of harmony in the aura was very subtle, and it was difficult to hide the past with body language.

Ran Nian left Wu Yunling's house slowly, and by the way, she forced back the black dog barking at her on the side of the road with her eyes, thinking about something.

She was just pretending to be a Gu, and after staying with Wu Yunling for a while, she had to think about leading her people to the secret realm, in fact, it didn't matter if she didn't lead them, anyway, the people who should enter the secret realm had already entered, and the effect of the bait ended here.

It's just that there are fewer incidents, and there is no way to pull these people into the game.

Tang Jinshan: These people on the list are of great value. She looked up at the stilted building, but the most valuable thing was the new zero-score master.

Zhan Changfeng also saw the burning thoughts on the path, and bowed slightly.

Ran Nian changed out of the monk's robe of a bhikshuni, a clean military robe, the neckline was a bush of thorns, she was slender, but her demeanor was natural and atmospheric, heroic posture, at this moment, the robe crossed the graceful traces in the air, turned around and sat on the railing of the corridor, smiled and said to Zhan Changfeng, "Daoist friends are quite bold, if that kid is just a minion, it doesn't anger them in vain and make the situation more dangerous." ”

"Does General Rannian think I'm doing something inappropriate?" Zhan Changfeng sat idly on a small bamboo bench, with his back against the door, which was extremely harmless, "In such a dangerous scene as hostage-taking, there is a half-grown teenager hiding behind a tree and peeping, obviously either stupid or stupid, and stupidity and stupidity, in addition to congenital reasons, are mostly used to being used to being like this, how can it have a little weight." ”

Ran Nian was silent, this kind of logic is obviously not very reliable and it seems that it can't be refuted, "Daoyou seems to have a lot of experience." ”

Zhan Changfeng was very considerate of her, "I didn't expect people to be like this, but I believed it when I saw more, it can be seen that the world is full of wonders." ”

What's the matter with your strange tone, I don't resonate with you, but how could the young patriarch of the High Heaven Clan appear there?

Ran Nian grabbed the clue that was pulled away by her, and said, "Aren't you afraid of a mistake in judgment and causing more serious consequences?"

"No matter how serious it is, is there anything more serious than Zhong Gu being controlled by people?" Zhan Changfeng asked with a smile.

This is a person with a high free will, and Ran Nian has a new understanding of her, and she also feels that this kind of person is very difficult to deal with.

She propped her hands on the railing, her fingers unconsciously tapping on the railing, "According to the ability of Taoist friends, don't you think that an honorary inspector is too wronged, I think you might as well officially join the Council of Elders and become a military aircraft inspector." ”

Zhan Changfeng's heart moved slightly, and his face was surprised, "Why did General Ran Nian suddenly say this?"

Ran Nian seemed to just mention it casually, jokingly, "I just think that Daoist friends may have a lot to do, and it's too wasteful to have an honorary name." ”

"What is considered to be a great achievement, is it a successful cultivation, a successful Dao heart, or a successful achievement?" Zhan Changfeng shook his head, "Everyone has their own fate, if it weren't for the disputes in the general's platform, I don't want the false name of this honor." ”

Ran Nian thoughtfully, "Daoist friends are practicing Buddhism?"

"Not exactly, it's a little bit of a relationship. ”

"Buddhism likes to appear in troubled times. ”

"That's just the work of the Wishing Tantra, and some Buddhist sects don't like to enter the world regardless of the troubled times. ”

"Sometimes what we seek is not cultivation, not Dao mind, not merit, but responsibility. Ran Nian jumped off the railing and walked into the house, "One day Taoist friends will understand that it is also a sin to be alone. ”

There was a meaning in Rannian's words that enveloped her, Zhan Changfeng felt strange, was she so short of people?

Review point: The various corps in Taiwan recruited members, the Council of Elders enshrined young geniuses, and Cheng Xueshan was attracted to the strange man when he met Qin Hao'er, and he grabbed it.

This is not an isolated case, but a common practice.

It's not strange to change to the mortal world, after all, the mortal world advocates the strength of many people, and if you can't use force, you can't make up the number of people, and if you can't have an IQ, you can also make up the number of people.

But in the monastic world, individual strength is king, and because of the characteristics of cultivators, the more talented and powerful cultivators are, the more solitary they are, they have their own paths, and they will not go to others to follow them.

Even if they become a group because of resources and wealth for a while, there will be a day when they will be scattered.

Zhan Changfeng discovered this early and knew this, so the talents she took the initiative to recruit could fit in with her future path and complement each other.

The harmony of the Tao is more important than the superficial interests of wealth and honor, and the relationship formed by it is also more long-lasting and stable.

But why are these forces so frantically recruiting young geniuses for, they are not afraid that when the time comes, they will participate in the Dharma and enter the sect to go to the Great Realm?

If the power of a force is constantly injected and lost, it is difficult to say whether the force will grow or not.

On the contrary, the Council of Elders, which is a more cost-effective honorary title for an honorary inspector, does not require resources and effort to cultivate geniuses who may leave at any time, but also closes the relationship between the two parties, which is equivalent to sending personal favors.

But if most of the forces are in a state of thirst for geniuses, it can only mean that something big is going to happen.

Could it have something to do with the killing war that Qin Hao said?

What is the reason?

Zhan Changfeng suddenly had a premonition that these forces in the upper echelons of the Hidden Cloud Stream had a tacit secret, and now, she was on the edge of this secret.

"Gather in the lobby, and I'll talk about the follow-up to this. Ran Nian shouted in the lobby.

No one would ignore a secret that might threaten her, and she didn't want to be left in the dark when the battle began in the future.

Ran Nian saw that everyone had arrived, and glanced at Ding Zhao and the other three surnamed people, "I tested the tone of that transcendent senior, it turns out that this clan's name is Gaotian, and it lives in seclusion here, and the secret realm is in the red maple forest over there." ”

Ding Zhao hurriedly asked, "This secret realm is theirs?"

Listening to the tone, it seems that they are very afraid of that secret realm, and they need to stay here for some reason. Ran Nian said, "That senior didn't stop us from entering the secret realm, but persuaded us not to go in, and only said that we would die for a lifetime. ”

"That's really strange, what's in this secret realm?" Tang Jinshan was puzzled, "Could there be any conspiracy?"

"Maybe. Ran Nian said to Ding Zhao and the others, "But the possibility of obtaining this secret realm is very small, just the high heaven clan can't pass this level, if you give up exploring it, it's okay." ”

The people with the three surnames are on fire inside, they spent so much money to buy the news of the secret realm with her, and now tell them that the secret realm is guarded, and it is impossible for them to divide it?!

Empty joy, bamboo basket fetching water, losing their wives and losing their soldiers are not enough to describe their unwillingness and resentment, which makes them go back and explain to their families.

It's a pity that they can't get out of the fire, who made them just buy the seat to follow Ran Nian into the unknown secret realm, and make an appointment to explore the secret realm together.

Make an appointment, and it's not really sure that the secret realm will be in their pockets.

The family must have taken this situation into account when they negotiated the conditions with Ran Nian, but the temptation of the unknown secret realm and spirit treasure was too great, so they had to spend a lot of money to cooperate with Ran Nian.

Now, the secret realm has a master, and it is so dangerous inside, and the cooperation will end here.

The Ding family worked hard to get this quota at the beginning, and now they are quitting very quickly, "My Ding family has a weak foundation, and I don't want the Zhuji monk to gamble on his life, general, I will leave here." ”

"I don't send it. ”

Ding Zhao gave up his hand and left.

The Shi family also said, "It's still the Zhong family who is resolute, and they retreated before entering the lotus side, I'm sorry general, the Tianlu elder of the Shi family has fallen, I want to go back to the family first to explain and leave." ”

"Walk slowly. ”

There are still people from the Luo family left, Luo Wen hesitated a little, "Brother Luo Hua is missing, has the general seen it?"

Ran Nian glanced at Zhan Changfeng, and Zhan Changfeng said, "There is no shadow of him and Zhou Yongyuan in the obstacle, either they are already dead, or they have already entered the valley." ”

Ran Nian lowered her eyes and pondered, she didn't see these two people when she entered the valley, and after entering the valley, she had been guarding the entrance with the High Heaven Clan, they might have died, or they might have entered the Red Maple Forest before her, which was a bit interesting.

"You also heard Zhan Daoyou's words, do you want to leave, or stay, maybe Luo Hua has already entered the secret realm. ”

Luo Wen sighed in his heart, his status in the family is not as good as Luo Hua, this time Luo Hua is missing, he returns to the family alone, I am afraid that he will be troubled, and he will end up cowardly and afraid of things. ”

Ran Nian nodded, and said to Zhan Changfeng and the others, "What about you?"

She and Tang Jinshan were employed, of course, where Ran Nian went, where they went.

After having no objections, Ran Nian expressed regret to the several monks who had fallen before, "I will negotiate with the High Heaven Clan to retrieve their bodies for burial." ”

Zuo Zhuzhi said excitedly, "General Gaoyi, alas, it's a pity Lin Daoyou, if I insist on the queen of the palace, she won't have an accident." ”

"Death and injury are inevitable, maybe the next one is me, it's you, please be careful with the next action. ”

Ran Nian frowned, "Originally, our employment negotiation was to go in and find out the terrain inside, draw a map, so as to prepare for mining, I'm afraid we don't need it now, so let's go on this trip when we cooperate to explore the secluded, and the treasures we get belong to ourselves, and we can also trade with each other, how about it?"

According to the previous agreement, they were just acting as guards and thugs, and everything they found had to be handed over to Ran Nian, but now that Ran Nian has changed the conditions, there is nothing that should not be good, and they are even more looking forward to the secret realm.

Before they went to prepare, Luo Wen asked again, "The general didn't reveal the address of the secret realm and the dangers to be encountered to us before, it is understandable, now they are all at the gate of the secret realm, can you reveal something, it is better than us blindly prepare." ”

The corners of Ran Nian's lips were slightly raised, and he couldn't see his joy or anger, "Although I encountered a maze when I came before, I didn't encounter Gu poison, and I didn't know the existence of the High Heaven Clan. It should have sneaked in at that time, and didn't let them find out and make a defense. This time, the first few groups of people alarmed them, and only then did they have this change, as for the secret realm...... I don't know if you have noticed that in the territory of the High Heaven Clan, almost every family has chickens and dogs?"

Zhan Changfeng listened to the faint barking of the dog, and had some guesses, "Stiff?"

Ran Nian was surprised, and carefully looked at this monk who was too ordinary in appearance and aura, "How did Zhan Daoyou find out?"

"It's just a guess, since we talked about chickens and dogs, according to the white stiff who grew white hair after the corpse became a hundred days old, he was afraid of fire, he was afraid of chickens and dogs, and he was not afraid of dogs after drinking blood and turned into black zombies, and when he became a jumping corpse, the dogs that could bark no longer dared to bark, and the chickens and dogs in the clan were probably used to warn. ”

Of course, there is another important reason, the phoenix ditch is lush with trees, a mountain range to the southeast, Tibetan wind gathers water, sits in Xun Palace, it is Wenqu Xingfeng, but the middle is concave, and a valley emerges, as if a beauty's face has been dug out of a piece of meat, good feng shui becomes bad feng shui, and it has become a kind of corpse raising place called broken face Wenqu.

Since it is a corpse breeding ground, this valley should be full of yin qi gathering, and there is no grass, but the valley is full of vitality.

Zhan Changfeng was also puzzled at first, but if he looked closely at the layout in the valley, he was afraid that the High Heaven Clan had suppressed this place with its own clan fortune and generational reproduction.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that when you enter the territory of the High Heaven Clan, although the atmosphere is quite peaceful, it seems that you rarely see children, and most of them are middle-aged and elderly.

The qi of this clan is about to be worn out by the corpse raising ground.

The so-called secret realm is the inside of the corpse raising ground.

Zhan Changfeng probably understood a little that the High Heaven Clan was not guarding this place, but suppressing this place, the reason is difficult to say, but seeing that they did not prevent others from entering the secret realm, it could not be that they were borrowing other people's hands to crack the corpse raising place.

"That's right, I was attacked by zombies when I entered last time, so you have to be mentally prepared, and I gave you a purse before I came, which contains hidden things, and this hidden thing is given to facilitate activities in the secret realm." The night is too cloudy, and tomorrow at noon, we will re-enter the secret realm. ”

Tang Jinshan said sincerely, "It turns out that the general has already made arrangements, thank you." ”

It was strange before, but the hidden thing is a good thing, what do you do with this, it turns out that it was going to be used here.

In the evening, several High Heavenly Clans sent dishes and informed Shi Tianlu that the bodies of several people had been brought back.

The appearance of the dead people was terrifying, among them, Shi Tianlu only had one skin left, and Lin Youxia only took back a broken blue and white umbrella, and his body may have been absorbed by the Gu Tree King.

The Gu Tree King is the guardian demon of the High Heaven Clan, as a hard interloper, it is already a miracle that they can live in peace with the High Heaven Clan now, how can they tear their faces with them because of the dead people, so everyone didn't say anything, but Zuo Zhuzhi couldn't help but slap the table a few times, sighing that his palace might be fine.

There was a candle in a room over there, Wu Yunling looked at Wu Cheng who was kneeling on the ground, and said angrily, "Do you think it's okay like this, how can you be so careless!"

Wu Cheng bowed his head and was silent, he would sneak away to peep, but also because his heart was too bottomless, after Wu Xingshan led him to find the Phoenix Ditch, he left the ghost cultivation road, and didn't care about him at all, when he arrived in this strange ancestral land, he was just an ordinary outcast, or relying on some alchemy techniques taught by Wu Xingshan, he showed his talent little by little, and was established as a young patriarch.

The High Heaven Clan tends to decline, there are few young people in the clan, and he intends to do something, from the patriarch to the clansmen, they all like him very much, and even let him slowly enter the core contact with the secrets in the clan.

This contact is terrible, it turns out that the High Heaven Clan was once a famous clan in the Heavenly Domain, and it also had the power of Lingjian, and even the True Monarch had to bow his head when he saw it, but it was because of the suppression of this ghost place that the clan's fortune declined, and it was difficult to show the original glory.

What's even worse is that the witch Gu Bible of the High Heaven Clan is nowhere to be found, and even the magic lineage is gone.

Wu Cheng guessed that the Wu Gu Bible was in that secret realm, because Wu Xingshan had mentioned that there was something important in the secret realm, so that he could get it.

Today, I occasionally listened to Wu Yunling's conversation with Rannian, and I thought that they must be going to take the things in the secret realm, and I was very happy in my heart, Wu Yunling's getting was equivalent to what he got it, who made him the young patriarch.

"Patriarch, you are angry, I am to blame for this, I thought there was no danger, so he went. Seeing that Wu Cheng was so trained that he couldn't lift his head, a man hurriedly spoke out to relieve him.

This man is the person who held Burning Nian hostage at that time, with Wu Cheng's cultivation, how can he escape his induction, just with the mood of "giving him a long insight", he didn't pierce him, so many of them can still let him have an accident under his nose? !

Who would have thought that something would really happen.

"Mother-in-law, patriarch, I know that I am wrong, I am too careless, you can punish me. Wu Cheng wisely chose to admit it, he knew that Wu Yunling was really cultivating him, otherwise how could he overhear her conversation with Ran Nian without being discovered, Wu Yunling had gradually revealed to him the major events about the future of the High Heaven Clan, and there was no need for him to be stubborn in this mistake.

Wu Yunling snorted coldly, "You just kneel here for an hour, reflect on it, just eavesdrop and peek, and let people find out." ”

...... "Mother-in-law, something doesn't seem right about what you said."

Wu Yunling taught him a lesson, threw off his sleeves and went out, went to find the Gu Tree King, and obviously said that he would tell the Gu Tree King to stand still and let those people enter the Round Valley, how did he know that he would suddenly attack people, and he pretended to be dead after attacking people, and he didn't pay attention to people until now, and neither one or two made people worry.

This night is really not worry-free, Wu Yunling is looking for the Gu Tree King Wu Cheng's question, and Ran Nian is thinking about the secret realm. Zhan Changfeng had no intention of meditating, so he leaned on the corridor to think about things.

This time, she met Wu Cheng and the Gao Tian clan again, which forced her to retrace the history of the Yin Dynasty and explore the purpose of Wu Xing Mountain.

Three thousand years ago, the civilization of this world was destroyed by the Heaven Covering Sword Venerable and Xiyang Dharma Venerable, and the survivors began to rebuild a new civilization.

Eight hundred years ago, Shenzhou was in the stage of tribal warfare, according to time, that is, at that time, Wu Xingshan entered Shenzhou, presented the Dragon Armor Divine Medal to the founding emperor, and helped the founding emperor unify Shenzhou.

But where did he get the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter?

And with the specifications of the Dragon Armor Divine Seal, it is not something that he and the High Heaven Clan can take out.

Why did he want to help the founding emperor unify Shenzhou?

Zhan Changfeng suddenly discovered another problem, why is the height of civilization three thousand years ago far higher than now, but why is it regressing.

Even if the survivors at that time did not have the ability to restore the technology of that civilization, they should not suddenly jump from an open state of mind to ignorance.

Zhan Changfeng used to think about the intentions of the rulers at that time from the environment of her time, so it was a matter of course for the rulers to objectify and fool the people in order to reproduce and centralize power.

However, will a civilization that leads to the star field and is in a state of high openness in thought, and their spiritual literacy really tolerate their choice to objectify their own lives?

Isn't there any other way to perpetuate the race than objectification?

It's like a gentleman of good character who steals and smashes because he lives on the streets, full of drama and exaggeration. Because the real Yashi, the character and behavior template have been cultivated, and even if he starves to death, he will not defile himself.

But on the contrary, this highly open-minded civilization did not even wade into the river, and went directly into the quagmire.

The most important thing is that the language and writing of the civilization at that time seemed to have been directly replaced, and it was completely different from the current language and writing, and it is impossible to say whether it was a regression or a mutation.

Such an extreme change will only be triggered by a small chance, for example, the people who survived at that time had certain mental defects, and were keen on sadism and power, and those who had a little thought were killed by them.

Or, deliberately, bootstrapping.

In this way, the practices of the Heaven Covering Sword Venerable and the Xiyang Dharma Venerable are also questionable, since they said that they were sorry for the creatures in this realm, why didn't they help them restore civilization, but let them enter obscurantism.

Not to mention the effort it took to build the Tibetan Cloud Stream and the Cloud Water Terrace, it can't really help the living beings in Shenzhou.

Even if it is to open a cultivation path for them, if they have the leisure to create a hidden cloud stream, why not directly raise the environment of Shenzhou to the level where they can cultivate?

Since it is to redeem the cause and effect of Shenzhou, why not build Yunshuitai in Shenzhou?

Zhan Changfeng's mind was full of thoughts, and one possible calculation after another was denied and discarded, and in the end, only two broad answers remained.

The first, as it seems on the surface, the two Venerables are redeeming cause and effect, opening a path of cultivation for the beings of this realm, but there are considerations or variables that she cannot guess.

The second .....

Three thousand years ago, Shenzhou was deliberately destroyed.

But why?

She stopped her thoughts and returned to the present, Wu Xingshan had said that he had existed for thousands of years, so he and the High Heaven Clan may have settled in the Tibetan Cloud Stream after the appearance of the Hidden Cloud Stream three thousand years ago.

If the High Heaven Clan had suppressed it here since it emerged from the Tibetan Cloud Stream, there would be another speculation. The High Heaven Clan may have been suppressed here by the orders of the two Venerables, but what would the two Venerables "put" in the nascent Tibetan Cloud Stream at that time and let people guard it? Is it just a stiffness?

This logical chain is not yet valid, and there are many blanks that need to be filled, but it can also be used as a direction for thinking.

Zhan Changfeng put aside this incomplete logical chain and stared at the night, emptying his mind to ensure that his objective consciousness was not affected by speculation.

It seemed that at night, the whole valley fell silent, and the houses were closed, and the roads were empty except for the occasional barking of dogs.

Thinking that the High Heaven Clan and the corpse raising ground may be in a state of mutual containment and mutual consumption, I saw a little sadness in the silhouettes of these stilted buildings.

Zhan Changfeng blew the wind for a while, ready to go back to the house to rest, before she turned around, first heard a short and loud dog bark, and then the barking sound rose one after another, and each house turned on the lights, or leaned against the window to look, or summoned the Gu beast to sacrifice the magic weapon, and ran towards the first dog bark.

After all the dogs barked for a moment, they came to an abrupt end, and the whole valley fell into an eerie silence, and the people who woke up were even more panicked.

Can't be wasted, it's almost naked, start a new round of depositing [clench your fist!]
