Chapter 246
Chapter 246
Li Zhuiyuan waved the battle flag, and the scenery in front of him gradually overlapped in his sight.
Lin Shuyou's eyes kept bulging, representing the boy's emotions at the moment.
In the past, the boy was only summoned by the spirit medium when he was needed for a battle, and was strictly subject to time limits, so theoretically speaking, this was the first time that the boy had accompanied the spirit for a full journey.
Although this is just the beginning of this wave, the boy still feels impressed by the smooth feeling.
Yesterday, the young man only asked Tan Wenbin and others to come and explore the way, while he went to the hospital. This means that the young man has the confidence to easily break through the gate protection formation when he climbs the mountain gate for the first time even if he is not familiar with it in advance.
Status is earned through one's own strength. This young man has not practiced martial arts but can make everyone follow him wholeheartedly, relying on his almost ferocious abilities besides close combat.
In other words, if the young man did not have this defect, why would people like them have any reason to exist?
Even this team has no meaning to be formed.
It is precisely because the young people are too outstanding that a large amount of merit from walking on the river can be shared among people like them.
It’s not that the boy did this on purpose, he really didn’t need to.
Lin Shuyou is now a little annoyed by Tongzi's occasional emotional reactions. Last night, when he was taking a shower and looking in the mirror in the guesthouse, he felt that his eyes were bulging outwards.
If you want to say something useful and valuable, that's fine, but at this critical moment, the boy kept saying in his heart:
"Ji Tong, follow him carefully!"
"Ji Tong, this is your chance, and it's also my chance!"
Lin Shuyou had taken the Jinling exam in order to get away from the nagging of his elders at home, but who would have thought that after so many twists and turns, it was like he had packed in a nagging guy and carried him with him.
The crack opens.
Runsheng was the first to rush in, followed by Lin Shuyou, then Yin Meng, and finally Tan Wenbin who was pushing the cart with two ghosts.
Everyone had already rehearsed many times in their minds what to do when they entered.
People have named and said they want to kill your entire family, and there is a high probability that they have already sent people to Nantong. When you come to their house at this time, do you still want to say hello leisurely?
You must kill from the beginning to the end, from the outside to the inside, and trample them all the way. After you kill to the core area of the enemy, you will eliminate all the remaining core figures. Only then can you stop for a while and drink a sip of water. There will be no communication throughout the whole process, and absolutely no verbal attacks.
The youth team's style of action has always been decisive and they never drag their feet.
However, the plan was too good, but the reality was surprisingly skinny.
Runsheng just came in, the valve was still being pumped, and the shovel was already raised, but he was stunned.
Lin Shuyou, who was behind him, thought that Runsheng had encountered some powerful enemy who stopped him, so he naturally went around Runsheng's back and wanted to join the battle. Then, he was also stunned.
When Yin Meng came in, he had already raised the poison can in his hand, and subconsciously looked for the place with the most people to throw it, while also paying attention to whether there were any suitable fresh body parts on the ground in front of him.
Before going in, she specifically told Runsheng not to smash the person too hard at the beginning.
But when Yin Meng saw the scene in the room, she subconsciously bit her lips.
The good news was that she no longer had to worry about not having a suitable corpse for sacrifice, but the bad news was... it seemed that there was no need for her to make a sacrifice.
Here, there are corpses everywhere, and the deaths are horrific.
Although the Taoist temple is protected by a formation and the climate is different from that of the outside world, which makes the body better preserved, it can still be seen that the person has been dead for two or three days.
Runsheng held the shovel horizontally in front of him, changing from an offensive stance to a defensive one, as he was worried that there might be a more powerful presence inside.
Lin Shuyou's eyes bulged with a hint of dissatisfaction and anger. Ah You and Tong Zi's beliefs intertwined at this moment:
Who did this? Taking my job.
Yin Meng didn't think too much about it, but observed the corpses nearby and released the insect to let it help identify which corpse was more special and had higher utilization value.
Tan Wenbin came in sitting in an "automatic wheelchair", saw this, and immediately told the two children not to push it.
Then he immediately shrank his body, crossed his hands into his sleeves, and entered a semi-hibernation state.
He had a guess in his mind, although it was a bit bold and exaggerated, and he didn't know how it was done, but he felt that it should be that possibility.
Moreover, he felt that Brother Xiaoyuan might have some expectations in his mind.
Li Zhuiyuan came in.
The boy didn't expect to see this scene, but he wasn't surprised.
"Go inside and take a look."
Runsheng walked in front to lead the way.
Lin Shuyou pushed Tan Wenbin's wheelchair.
Corpses could be seen everywhere in the entire Taoist temple, as if there had been a sudden massacre, and the enemy did not attack from outside, but rather it seemed as if an internal conflict had occurred.
Li Zhuiyuan saw the body of the old Taoist priest who was sweeping the floor. He was kneeling there with his eyes wide open, holding a large broom that was completely soaked in blood.
The poisonous insect crawled around his body, then excitedly waved its tentacles towards Yin Meng, indicating that this corpse was of top-notch quality.
Because although this old Taoist who sweeps the floor is dead, his foundation is still intact.
Yin Meng looked at Runsheng, and Runsheng nodded to her, meaning that he could help her chop it up and take it away when she left.
Li Zhuiyuan stretched out his hand and gently touched the brow of the Taoist priest sweeping the floor.
Lin Shuyou also came over at this time: "Brother Xiaoyuan..."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Let Him speak."
Ah You's vertical pupils opened, and the boy said, "The other Taoists in this area were killed by this broom. The wounds match, but this old Taoist died from the robbery."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Be specific."
The boy said, "A catastrophe... is a catastrophe. It can be a result of going astray during cultivation, or a backlash of Qi, or the premature death of an object of reliance, or even a mistake in the path of cultivation that brings about a catastrophe of death."
Li Zhuiyuan: “I can’t even explain it clearly.”
The boy pursed his lips. He just wanted to show off his knowledge to increase his presence, but he didn't expect that the young man was not satisfied.
Li Zhuiyuan: "This is a killing calamity caused by the power of Feng Shui."
"Feng Shui?" The boy's pupils slightly curved. "How is this possible? Who can inject the power of Feng Shui into others and turn it into a disaster?"
"As long as the method is right, nothing is impossible. I did something similar in the dream ghost's dream before, but I was in a passive state that time."
"I don't have any memory of that period. It should have been erased by myself."
Li Zhuiyuan repeatedly tapped the forehead of the sweeping Taoist priest with his knuckles. As he tapped, a faint mark of sandalwood emerged.
“There are many ways to borrow strength from the outside world. You, the chief officer, the eight generals, and the holy boy and holy girl are just one of them. Taoism also has a way to ask the ancestors for help.
Although this person is holding a broom and is dressed in ordinary clothes, he is also a patriarch-level figure in this Taoist temple system.
When I looked at this Taoist temple, the formation layout and internal furnishings were all well preserved, except for the feng shui pattern, which was full of holes.
Therefore, I speculate that the power of Feng Shui should be injected into the connection of the method of inviting the ancestor master, forming a killing calamity against the ancestor master. "
Boy: "Then we can only kill him..."
Li Zhuiyuan: "When I have the ability to kill you, is it difficult to threaten you to kill someone else first?"
The boy was silent.
He just said that the Taoist priests nearby were killed by this old Taoist priest who was sweeping the floor. Isn't this exactly right?
Li Zhuiyuan continued to scrape the forehead of the sweeping Taoist priest with his fingertips, and a bloody wound slowly appeared. All the vitality in the body was draining away from here.
The boy suddenly felt a pain on his fingertips. He withdrew his hand and when he looked down, he found a small wound on his fingertips.
The boy's pupils focused, and after careful observation, he said, "Sword Intention."
Yin Meng took out a Band-Aid, but Li Zhuiyuan shook his head to refuse. He rubbed the wound with his fingertips, and a faint blood mist condensed, forming a scab.
The boy continued, "Everything here was done by a powerful being who is good at using swords and is proficient in feng shui."
At this time, Tan Wenbin said, "Brother Xiaoyuan, is it dangerous to do this?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Since you dare to do it, you must have known what you were doing."
Tan Wenbin: "I'm so happy, but I finally got the chance."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Yes, it's a great opportunity. If we go in and check next time and find that the number of ancestors is very accurate, then this opportunity is somewhat deliberate."
Every sip and every bite is determined by fate. Li Zhuiyuan had guessed in advance that the difficulty of this wave might be reduced, but the way it is reduced does not necessarily mean that the height of the waves becomes smaller. It may mean that a layer of the waves will be cut off in advance when they hit.
If this is true, then the person who set the question is really smooth in his operation.
It's all linked together as it should be, but it makes it impossible for you to find the flaws and copy them.
The boy looked at the young man, then at Tan Wenbin, and asked:
"So, who is it?"
After asking, the boy felt a strong palpitation in his heart, which came from his own medium.
"What are you afraid of?"
Lin Shuyou said nothing, but was filled with fear.
It was almost as if the same scene would happen in his own temple.
Compared with the current scene, it seems that it would be more humane for Uncle Qin to go and destroy the temple.
Because the most difficult thing to accept is the choice of survival under the threat of life and death. Ayou believes that there will be people in the temple who will stick to their original intentions and would rather die than obey, but there will definitely be elders who were respected in the past who will make the same choice as this old Taoist priest who sweeps the floor.
When the time came, he returned home and saw the tragic aftermath of the slaughter in the temple, which was a trampling countless times more painful than simply being killed.
The boy's vertical pupils dissipated and returned to his body, and he kept asking himself in his heart:
"Tell me, who did it, who?"
"The one who lives at home, the old lady."
After getting the answer, the boy finally calmed down.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Keep going."
Runsheng responded and continued to take the lead. After that, each area was almost a reset of the previous scene, which was equivalent to the appearance of different "sweeping masters".
They killed everyone around them, and then they themselves were killed.
This means that none of the elders in this Taoist temple chose to stick to their original intentions, and all of them started killing their own disciples under the threat of death.
Of course, this is not surprising. This is the atmosphere of this Taoist temple. How can someone who steals a child and then threatens to retaliate and kill the entire family after the child is destroyed truly cultivate the Taoist spirit of righteousness?
Although they wear Taoist robes and chant the name of Wuliang Tianzun, they are just a group of thoroughgoing selfish people.
The deeper we went, the more obvious the movement became, but it was not threatening.
The deepest and largest building appeared in front of everyone.
At the door, an old Taoist priest was sitting there in pain. In front of him was a middle-aged Taoist priest with a few flowers on his hair. He was running around happily with his arms open.
"Flying, flying, flying, hahahaha..."
The old Taoist priest sitting there was Wen Chenzi. Because he was under a curse, he was placed in a secret room for recuperation, and thus escaped the massacre in the Taoist temple that day.
When he saw the person coming, Wen Chenzi's lips trembled for a while, and finally fell on Tan Wenbin.
That night in Nantong, it was this person who came out to stop me from taking the child away and even cast a curse on me.
In a panic, he stabbed the other person. Now thinking about it, it might be intentional.
“Fly, fly, fly!!!”
Ling Fengzi ran down the stairs and came towards Li Zhuiyuan and the others, running around them in circles like a madman.
Li Zhuiyuan: "There is no stench of excrement on my body. Even after going crazy, I still know how to be clean and hygienic."
Ling Fengzi's running posture froze for a moment.
Tan Wenbin: "That's right. There are so many cases of people pretending to be crazy in history. Even if they are princes, they should at least live in a pigsty. You are being too perfunctory."
"Fly... fly..."
Ling Fengzi's shouts became weaker and weaker.
Yin Meng pointed at Ling Fengzi and said, "Why didn't he run away, but stayed here instead?"
Tan Wenbin: "I was scared to death by the scene that day, but I couldn't bear to leave my property here. Knowing that we would come to take care of it, I thought of pretending to be crazy and stupid, so that we would feel sad and meaningless and let go of this place."
Ling Fengzi continued to stagger along, and no more sound came out of his mouth.
He really thought so, but he didn't expect that his performance was meaningless.
"Pfft!"
Ling Fengzi simply knelt down, his face no longer showing any madness, and he said sincerely:
"I am blind and arrogant. Now the temple has become such a mess. I should die to atone for my sins. But please show some mercy and leave a flame of inheritance for my Seven Stars Temple!"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Are you willing to die?"
Ling Fengzi nodded vigorously: "I have committed a capital crime, and even caused the Taoist temple to suffer this disaster. I should die to apologize for my crime. I only ask that the incense and incense continue to be passed down."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Okay, I promise you."
Ling Fengzi was delighted.
Unexpectedly, the young man pointed to Wen Chenzi who was sitting behind him and said, "You are the incense I left for this Taoist temple. Come, kill the temple master and I will let you live."
Ling Fengzi was struck by lightning.
Wen Chenzi stood up tremblingly, walked down the stairs, picked up a sword that was left on the stairs, and pulled out the sword.
"Seriously?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Really, this is your master's request, I agree."
"Then I... the curse on me..."
Tan Wenbin: "I'll help you solve it."
Wen Chenzi took the sword and walked behind Ling Fengzi. He raised the sword and said, "Master, please rest assured that I will definitely continue the inheritance of my Seven Stars Temple. At least... the incense and sacrifices will not be extinguished."
After saying that, he stabbed down with the sword.
At this moment, a hand pinched the sword blade, twisted the sword, and stabbed it into Wen Chenzi's body.
Wen Chenzi lowered his head in horror, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"you……"
Ling Fengzi: "It's because of you, a piece of trash, that you did such a thing, that my Qixingguan has ended up in this mess. You deserve to die!"
The palm continued to exert force, and the sword pierced deeper. Wen Chenzi's body trembled and he died.
Ling Fengzi withdrew his hand and asked Chenzi's body to fall to the ground.
"Before I die, I have a request..."
Ling Fengzi stood up while wiping the blood on his hands on his Taoist robe.
When he stood up, the formation covering the entire Taoist temple began to twist and rotate, and balls of green flames burst out from various buildings in the temple.
Ling Fengzi already knew that he had no chance of surviving, and this Taoist temple had no chance of being preserved.
He simply gave up and destroyed the place himself, ending the history of Qixingguan.
Ling Fengzi: "I want to know, who are you?"
Li Zhuiyuan did not answer him, but instead set his eyes on the stiff spot on Ling Fengzi's sleeve, as if something was hidden inside.
It must be extremely important for him to be able to carry it with him even when he is acting crazy. At least it means a lot to him at the moment.
Seeing that he didn't get a response, Ling Fengzi took a deep breath, spread his palms, continued to control the formation, and said:
"If you can tell me, I will burn this place down thoroughly and save you... trouble."
Tan Wenbin looked at Li Zhuiyuan, and Li Zhuiyuan nodded, mainly to save trouble.
Seeing that Brother Xiaoyuan agreed, Tan Wenbin, who was sitting in a wheelchair, spoke in a voice that inevitably became shrill in his current physical condition:
"Listen carefully. The person standing in front of you is the only heir of the Qin and Liu families in this era."
As for the name, I won’t report it.
"The Qin and Liu families..."
Ling Fengzi began to think about the forces in the martial arts world. His starting point for thinking was already very high, but he had not been able to find the corresponding one. He had to continue thinking higher and higher, and finally, he thought of the family that was said in the martial arts world to have become one through marriage between two families.
"Dragon... Dragon King's family?"
Tan Wenbin: “Yeah.”
Ling Fengzi: “Hahahaha!”
At this moment, Ling Fengzi completely turned into Ling Fengzi.
He thought of the sudden changes in the Taoist temple that day, how Wen Chenzi was able to come back alive and said that he had severely injured the other party, and the conversation he had with the young man when he was trying to break the curse.
He had actually made a bold statement to wipe out the entire Dragon King's family.
At this moment, all the resentment and indignation, all the fear and panic, completely disappeared.
I have offended the Dragon King's family and my inheritance has been destroyed. This is only natural!
At this moment, his smile came from the heart.
Tan Wenbin: "Can you die now?"
Ling Fengzi: "Okay."
As he spoke, Ling Fengzi began to tidy up his messy hair and wrinkled robes. He seemed to be still unsatisfied, so he pointed to a small pond nearby and said:
"Can I wash my face with water, because I want to..."
Tan Wenbin: "Runsheng."
Ling Fengzi: "No need to trouble you, I can go by myself..."
"boom!"
Runsheng's shovel hit the defenseless Ling Fengzi on the head.
Ling Fengzi's head exploded like a watermelon.
The valve on Runsheng's body opened, and the red and white sticky substances that were supposed to splash everywhere were blown to the other side to prevent their companions from getting dirty.
The headless corpse stood there for a long time before falling backwards.
Runsheng: “There are so many things.”
Some people, even opponents, can get the final respect.
But it is obvious that Ling Fengzi does not belong to this category.
But often the former leave most freely, while the latter, like Ling Fengzi, are the ones who cause a lot of trouble.
Tan Wenbin: "Ayou, turn up his sleeves and see what's inside. Runsheng, rush in and take a look." When Tan Wenbin is around, Li Zhuiyuan can say much less.
Lin Shuyou turned up Ling Fengzi's sleeves, took out an invitation from it and handed it to Tan Wenbin.
Tan Wenbin didn't answer, but signaled with his eyes.
Ayou immediately handed it to Brother Xiaoyuan.
Li Zhuiyuan took it and opened it. There was a very simple map on it. The terrain should also be within the Qingcheng Mountain area.
"The Taoist Demon Sealing Conference will be held in five days."
Lin Shuyou: "Can this kind of stuff also seal the demon?"
Tan Wenbin: "Maybe he was granted the title of a demon?"
Yin Meng: "Then there should be many Taoist temples invited, not just this one."
Li Zhuiyuan: "This should be the clue for the next stage. Five days is enough time for me to resolve the matter at the hospital. By then, it should provide a new clue from a different perspective."
Tan Wenbin: "In terms of time, there is still plenty of time. I think we can even take two days to go to Chengdu..."
Lin Shuyou: "See pandas?"
Tan Wenbin rolled his eyes at Ah You and corrected him, "It's to pick up clues."
Although there are flames everywhere at this moment, the fire has not yet reached its peak, so it is not very dangerous, but there is a lot of smoke.
Runsheng ran out of the burning hall, carrying a dried corpse.
He placed the mummy in front of Yin Meng and said, "Besides the statue, there are a lot of broken coffins and mummies on the ground. Meng Meng, see if this can be used."
Tan Wenbin felt like laughing.
Others would give you flowers and perfume, or at worst some paper stars or paper cranes, but Runsheng would just give you a dried corpse.
But Yin Meng really looked surprised, and the gift was given to the right person.
However, when Yin Meng used the Gu worm to check it, he said with some regret: "It's old enough, but it's been squeezed dry and completely ruined."
If it is well preserved, it is indeed an excellent offering.
Runsheng nodded: "Then carry away all the bodies of the seven murderers?"
Yin Meng: "You don't need so many, and they're hard to preserve. Just cut off a fan from the sweeping Taoist priest on the outside and take it away."
Runsheng seemed to remember something and said to Li Zhuiyuan, "Xiaoyuan, there are seven large incense burners in there, enshrining seven tablets without names written on them."
Lin Shuyou: "Branches, this means that there are seven branches in this temple, and some places are also called veins."
Tan Wenbin: "You are more familiar with it. After all, you are the leader of a branch."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, my branch is useless and no longer exists."
Tan Wenbin: "Oh, sorry, I forgot, you are now opening a separate book for the real family tree."
Lin Shuyou scratched his head: "Hehe."
Runsheng: "The names of the elders should be written below you."
Lin Shuyou: “…”
Seven veins, seven murderous vein masters, which also means that at least seven people must be sent to Nantong, and all seven veins must be there, otherwise the old lady will not be able to wipe out this Taoist temple in one fell swoop. When she and others come, they will have to face the resistance of at least one vein.
Is this a coincidence?
Li Zhuiyuan doesn't believe this coincidence.
Now we can almost be sure that this is a deliberate push by heaven.
Li Zhuiyuan was not moved by this, nor was he grateful for it. What God gives you now, you will pay back double in the future. God, you will never lose out.
The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and this place will be burned to ashes, and then appear from the formation. However, the environment in the mountains will soon bury these traces again.
After leaving the Taoist temple, walk down the mountain road. There is still a long distance to the road where the parking spot is.
Lin Shuyou carried Tan Wenbin on his back again, and the wheelchair was folded and held in his hands.
Tan Wenbin said with emotion: "Young people are still in good health."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, won't you be able to get better after this is over?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shuyou felt the chill on his back getting worse, and even the new version of the sealing talisman could not hold up.
The two children were angry and blew hard on Lin Shuyou's neck.
There's nothing I can do. It's his fault for bringing up things that are not related to the topic.
Tan Wenbin comforted the two children, signaling them to stop playing, and then said:
"Alas, I have been experiencing the life of an old man for a while now. I can imagine that when I am old like this, my husband will push me in a wheelchair to take me out for some fresh air."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, you are a man who has done a lot of good deeds and lived a long life. You will definitely die after your spouse."
Ah You's eyes bulged, and he immediately added:
"Walk behind my wife and push her wheelchair."
Tan Wenbin: "I say, when you go back this time, Yunyun will bring her classmate back. When you are with that classmate, you should talk more than you think."
Lin Shuyou: "Don't worry, Brother Bin, I will do it even for my sister-in-law's sake."
Tan Wenbin: "Yunyun said that classmate is also from Fujian."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Xiaoyuan, this means that many Taoist temples nearby will participate in this 'Demon Sealing Conference'?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "It doesn't necessarily have to be a Taoist temple."
Lin Shuyou: "Aren't there only Taoist temples here? Are there other forces?"
Tan Wenbin understood what Brother Xiaoyuan meant and said, "For example, a force like ours."
Lin Shuyou: "A force like ours?"
Tan Wenbin: "Have you forgotten that we also fought for the invitation last time in Lijiang? It was broken jade at that time."
Lin Shuyou: "But aren't all the invitations in the hands of the nearby Taoist temples?"
Tan Wenbin: "Then we have to snatch it from the Taoist temple. This is considered the qualification for admission."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Some sects are becoming more and more corrupt as they develop. The river water just pushes the lamplighters over to carry out regular cleaning."
If it can be cleaned up, clean it up. If it cannot be cleaned up, then the lamplighter will be cleaned up.
Li Zhuiyuan discovered early on that lighting a lamp and wandering the world was itself a form of breeding by the Heavenly Dao, allowing them to compete and consume themselves.
Lin Shuyou: "It doesn't seem to be that difficult. The Taoist temple just now was quite ordinary in strength."
Anyway, Lin Shuyou felt that even if the Qixing Temple had not been dealt with in advance, it would not be difficult to destroy this Taoist temple with the strength of their team.
Tan Wenbin: "What if he gets hurt? What if his condition is affected? Also, didn't you see the mummy that Runsheng carried out from the innermost part? Runsheng said there were many of them inside. If they haven't been drained and disposed of, do you think that Ling Fengzi, the master of the temple, has some means or secrets to gain some strength and help from these sealed ancestors?"
Lin Shuyou: "Yes, that's right."
At this point, Tan Wenbin couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Xiaoyuan, does that person have the strength of a dragon king?"
Li Zhuiyuan: “No.”
Tan Wenbin was a little surprised. Are you so sure?
Li Zhuiyuan: "Because that person didn't leave the river."
Without crossing the river and experiencing the baptism and polish of the river water, you will never be able to compare with the real Dragon King.
Tan Wenbin: "So, the reason why that person didn't leave the river was because..."
Li Zhuiyuan: "Now that you're married, you won't leave."
The fact that A'li could follow him across the river was a special case. First, the Qin and Liu families had already fallen on hard times, and second, Li Zhuiyuan's lamp ignited on its own, leaving no one defenseless.
In the past, the direct descendants of the Qin and Liulong families would never do such a thing as worshipping others and following them to the river. It would simply be a disgrace to their ancestors.
Of course, although each family will control the number of people who go to the river in each generation, first select internally and then choose the best one to go to the river, this is a perfect state.
In fact, it is often difficult to judge the superiority of truly outstanding disciples. Sometimes, in order to ensure a higher success rate for this generation, two or three more disciples will be sent to cross the river. Apart from this, it is impossible to avoid those who are dissatisfied and choose to cross the river on their own.
However, if they really became husband and wife, lighting lanterns together and fighting and competing on the river, it would be a bit too extreme and too exciting.
Therefore, although the old lady was the most respected eldest daughter of the Liu family, she did not leave the house.
Tan Wenbin: "Grandpa Qin, what a good trick, using love to eliminate a powerful competitor for yourself in advance."
I have never seen the old lady take action before. After all, for ordinary matters, she could just send one of Uncle Qin and Aunt Liu, such as destroying the temple of an official or a general.
But today I have indirectly witnessed the old lady's handiwork. If such a being had lit a lantern and walked along the river when he was young, he would definitely be a strong contender for the Dragon King.
Lin Shuyou reminded quietly: "Brother Bin, please don't say this when you go back..."
Tan Wenbin was amused: "I will say the same thing when I get back, in front of the old lady."
"what?"
"Don't worry, the old lady won't be angry when she hears this, but will be very happy instead."
"how come……"
"In the eyes of those who truly love each other, every bit of your efforts are sweet."
Li Zhuiyuan suddenly stopped.
Runsheng, who was walking in front, also stopped immediately.
Lin Shuyou loosened his shoulders, and Tan Wenbin naturally slid off his back and sat on the ground. Everyone was on alert.
The team has such a tacit understanding that sometimes everyone knows what to do and when without being told.
Li Zhuiyuan squatted down, patted the grass in front of him with his hands, and then pinched a black ink line with his fingertips.
"Brother Runsheng, dig it up."
"it is good."
Runsheng picked up a shovel and dug a few times, and some formation materials that were deliberately buried appeared underneath.
Although the formation had been destroyed, Li Zhuiyuan could roughly guess from these waste materials that it was a detection formation.
Use a small formation to explore the large formation.
Li Zhuiyuan looked around and found traces of a sect's formation in the southwest. Apparently, there was also a hidden Taoist temple deep there.
Qingcheng Mountain is blessed with beautiful natural environment and is also a place of Taoist blessings. Throughout history, countless temples have been built here and their heritage has been established.
Here, as long as your attainments in formations are high enough, you can find a secret Taoist temple almost just by walking around. However, most of them will not have as many people as the Seven Star Temple. Some may only have three or two people, or even be passed down from generation to generation.
Otherwise, why are there so many stories about old Taoist priests going down the mountain to look for disciples?
Li Zhuiyuan: "Someone has spotted the target and has scouted the area in advance. They should be able to make a move soon."
Tan Wenbin: "So there are other teams joining us to walk the river this time?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "It should be. There should be very few internal conflicts and fights here because there is no conflict of interest."
Everyone chooses to live in seclusion because they don't intend to receive offerings from believers.
Li Zhuiyuan: "However, it seems that he has encountered some troubles. It should be that all other teams will encounter this trouble. That is because what happened in Qixing Temple has had a great impact on the hidden Taoist temples in Qingcheng Mountain. As a result, they have all modified or moved their own sect formations recently. At the very least, they have to repair and adjust them.
This makes it much more difficult for other teams to attack their target Taoist temples."
Not every team has a formation master. For most teams, the formation obstacle alone is enough to give them a headache and force them to pay a huge price.
At the very least, a sneak attack becomes almost impossible, and a head-on confrontation is the only option.
Tan Wenbin: "Hey, we lowered the difficulty here, and other teams increased the difficulty. Combined with the two, we made a lot of money this time."
The strength of their own team was already a bit above standard. At the Demon Sealing Conference five days later, all members of their own team were in peak condition, while the other teams were all in a mess.
Tsk tsk...this feeling makes me happy.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Ayou."
"exist!"
"Please work hard and stay in the mountains for a few days. Pay attention to observe and record the movements. It would be best if you can find out the status of several teams. Remember, don't get involved."
"understand!"
Although the giant pandas cannot be watched for the time being, Lin Shuyou likes the feeling of being able to complete a mission alone.
If Tan Wenbin is in good health, he is actually the most suitable candidate, because Zhuangzhuang can not only observe and record... he can even actively integrate.
However, although Tan Wenbin's condition does not affect his combat effectiveness, he is not suitable for acting alone. Lin Shuyou has vertical pupils, so he can observe better. Besides, there is a boy in his body giving him instructions.
Runsheng took the wheelchair and carried Tan Wenbin on his back.
Tan Wenbin looked at the quarter-sized sweeper on the shoulder of "next door" with some disdain:
"Pack it up in a bag. You can't just carry it back to the guesthouse like this, right?"
Runsheng: "The fertilizer bags are on the bus. We'll pack them up after we get on board."
Tan Wenbin: "It's hot now, meat can easily go bad, have you figured out how to store it? Where can I get a small freezer for emergencies?"
Runsheng: "Put it in your room."
Tan Wenbin: “Very good.”
After arriving at the pickup truck's location, Runsheng wrapped the door with a fertilizer bag and then pasted a sealing talisman on it.
It was almost dusk when we returned to the guesthouse. In fact, the driving distance was not far, but the part on the mountain road was quite time-consuming.
As soon as I entered the guesthouse, I saw Wu Xin sitting on a bench next to the front desk.
Wu Xin looked down at the mud on their boots and asked, "Did you go to the mountains?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "Yes, I went to collect herbs."
After all, we are here for an internship. It is obviously inappropriate to report yesterday and go into the mountains for a tour today.
Wu Xin was very touched and kept saying "thank you for your hard work". Then he looked at Tan Wenbin who was carried by Runsheng and asked, "What happened to him?"
Tan Wenbin: "I broke my leg while collecting herbs."
Wu Xin: "I'll take you to the hospital!"
Tan Wenbin: "No, we have a secret recipe."
Wu Xin took a breath and nodded. He now really believed that the people sent by the higher-ups this time seemed to have something real.
He didn't believe that anyone would dare to joke about his injuries.
Then, Wu Xin pointed at the fertilizer bag on Runsheng's shoulder and asked, "Is there herbs in it?"
Runsheng: “Yeah.”
Wu Xin: “You need so many…”
Runsheng: "It's not durable. It's used up in one go."
Wu Xin: "Yes, that's right. I know that herbs need to be pounded and boiled. How about this, if you need it next time, I will mobilize the people in our unit to go into the mountains to help you collect it, okay?"
Li Zhuiyuan: "No need. Did you bring the things?"
"I brought it." Wu Xin handed a bag to Li Zhuiyuan.
Li Zhuiyuan: "Come pick me up at noon tomorrow and go to the hospital."
"Okay." Wu Xin pointed outside. "Let's have dinner together? I wasn't very polite yesterday and didn't treat you well enough."
Li Zhuiyuan: "No, I need to look at the information."
Wu Xin: "Okay, when they recover, I will invite you... to Rongcheng and give them a good reward!"
After leaving the guesthouse and sitting on his three-seater motorcycle, Wu Xin looked around with some confusion.
He felt that something seemed a little strange, but he couldn't find out what was strange.
Forget it, let’s go back to work first.
After returning to the room, Li Zhuiyuan took a shower first, then sat on the bed and took out the documents.
He did not rush to watch, but closed his eyes first and replayed the scene in Qixing Temple in his mind.
The old lady had two regrets about herself. One was that she couldn't give herself the good things at home, so she started her journey across the river with almost nothing; the other was that she couldn't teach herself personally.
Admittedly, it was himself who taught the new version of "Liu's Qi-Watching Secrets" to the old lady, but Li Zhuiyuan was not naive enough to think that his IQ could match the accumulation of someone else's entire life. Moreover, the old lady herself was a living fossil who had witnessed the peak of the Dragon King's clan.
"So, the old lady is taking this opportunity to let me see what the true Feng Shui is?"
……
It's a bit chilly in the mountains at night.
Lin Shuyou lay on a tree branch, opened a can of Jianlibao with a "click", and drank it alone facing the moon.
He didn't need to look around. After all, the noise of the formation being broken when the real action took place would be enough for him to sense.
Being alone here doesn’t make me bored, because I have someone to keep me company with.
Lin Shuyou's eyes were sometimes vertical and sometimes normal, switching constantly as he chatted with the boy about his childhood.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, a violent formation wave was heard.
Lin Shuyou immediately took out a pen and notebook, slid down from the tree, and quickly approached that direction.
After arriving at the specific location, Lin Shuyou immediately hid himself, opened his vertical pupils, and everything under the night sky was visible.
He also captured the bird that was circling abnormally in the air, but the bird failed to notice him below.
There are five people trying to break the formation.
Moreover, they were very efficient. At this moment, a gap appeared in the formation. Four of them rushed in quickly, and only one person lagged behind slowly.
At this moment, the man seemed to sense something, and he paused, turned around, and began to look behind him.
When Lin Shuyou saw his face, his pupils showed some emotion.
Ayou has a very good temper and is warm and sunny to everyone, but there is one person whom Ayou has a very bad impression of.
And that person is standing there at this moment.
"Three eyes..."
