Not only Wu Zhongyuan was nervous, but Wang Xinran was also nervous, and the two turned their heads to look back almost at the same time, only to find that there was a stone wall with weeds behind them, and there was still a trace of wormholes.

The disappearance of the wormhole shows that this two-way wormhole does need to carry something special to cross back and forth, which is what the two of them call a ticket, but it is obvious that the two do not have a ticket, and this retreat is broken.

"If it weren't for the modern era, there would be no teleportation formation copied by the West, and we would be trapped here. Wang Xinran spoke with a trill, she has a good psychological quality, and she is rarely so nervous.

Wu Zhongyuan stabilized his mind and said with relief, "It's okay, don't be nervous, if it weren't for the modern era, the little wizard Wu Jia should still be alive." ”

"But your previous return disrupted the original arrangements of the bear clan, and he may not still be there. Wang said happily.

Although Wu Zhongyuan was comforting Wang Xinran, he didn't have a bottom in his heart, but after a breeze blew, he finally had a bottom in his heart, and a white thing was blown by the wind and hung on a branch not far away, it was a worn-out plastic bag.

Wu Zhongyuan flashed over, took off the plastic bag, brought it back and handed it to Wang Xinran.

Seeing the plastic bag, Wang Xinran was relieved and took a long breath, "It seems that although this wormhole leads to modern times, the location of its appearance is not fixed. ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded and looked around, "There are elm trees and locust trees here, it should be the north." ”

"Let's see if the two spirit worms that disappeared are here. Wang happily urged.

Hearing Wang Xinran's words, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly took out the armor ball from his waist bag, opened it with spiritual energy, and released the spirit worm inside.

This spirit insect is the mother of the spirit insect, and its body is larger than the two released by Qi'er before, after the armor ball is opened, the spirit insect stretches its wings, flies out from inside, and flies south after flying around Wu Zhongyuan.

The spirit worm flies in a straight line, and it is clear that it has a definite destination.

Seeing this situation, Wu Zhongyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the mother of spirit insects was looking for the disappeared spirit insects, and the disappeared spirit insects were in this time and space, which meant that Jiang Nan was also in this time and space.

Fearing to lose it, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly extended the aura to support Wang Xinran and followed the spirit worm.

"Why does it keep calling?" asked Wang Xinran.

"I don't know. Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, the spirit insect kept making a low chirping sound when it flew, the sound did not come from the friction of the wings, but from the mouth, and the cry was full of eagerness and heavy sadness.

The flight speed of the spirit insect is faster than that of ordinary beetles, and it is about the same as that of swallows.

Turning over a towering mountain, lights appeared in the distance, and when he saw the lights, Wu Zhongyuan was completely relieved, yes, it was really modern.

It didn't take long for the spirit worm to leave the mountains and enter the fields.

After entering the field, the speed of the spirit worm's flight slowed down, its body swayed, and its cry became more and more mournful.

"What's going on?" Wang Xinran also noticed that something was wrong with the spirit worm.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer, the spirit worm had been flying at a low altitude, and it was easy to hit the wires in front of him at this altitude.

When it was still a few hundred meters away from the power line in front of it, the spirit insect swayed more and more violently, and finally could not maintain its balance and fell to the ground with a flutter.

Seeing the spirit insect falling, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly gathered his breath and landed, observing and looking, at this time the spirit insect was still chirping, but the sound was already very small, and after landing, he tried to fly again, but he tried several times, but he couldn't, and the situation was very similar to the knowledge of the autumn queen.

"It's not going to be in a good situation, and it's going to die. Wang was gladly worried.

"It shouldn't be like this, the red chain flower said that it can survive for half a month. While Wu Zhongyuan spoke, he sensed the emotions of the spirit insect with the Aryan beast control technique, and the spirit insect seemed extremely impatient at this time, with sadness in the pain.

"I see," Wang Xinran raised his voice suddenly, "it can't stand modern air." ”

Hearing Wang Xinran's words, Wu Zhongyuan reacted that the oxygen content of the modern atmosphere is much lower than that in ancient times, and there are all kinds of air pollution, people in ancient times will be seriously unwell when they appear directly in modern times, Wu Chai is the best proof, and spirit insects are the same as people, as long as they are living creatures, they need to breathe oxygen.

After reacting, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly withdrew the spirit insect back to the armor ball, and extended the aura to wrap the armor ball, the aura is not oxygen, but it is a benign breath that can replace oxygen.

But unfortunately, he couldn't save the spirit worm, and after a low and mournful roar, the spirit worm still died.

After several attempts, Wu Zhongyuan was completely discouraged, put away the armor ball, closed his eyes and sighed.

Wang Xinran also knows the seriousness of the problem, it can already be determined that Jiang Nan is in modern times, and the death of spirit insects will increase the difficulty of finding Jiang Nan, but this problem can be overcome, the biggest problem at the moment is Jiang Nan's safety, Jiang Nan is also a person from ancient times, it has been three days since he disappeared, and staying for three days in modern times will not cause Jiang Nan to die, but a long-term stay will definitely not be possible.

"Let's go, let's find out where we are first, and then get in touch with the headquarters as soon as possible. Wang said happily.

Wu Zhongyuan was about to answer, when he suddenly found that several abnormal breaths were rapidly approaching in the distance, not from the south, south, north, west, but from the sky.

I felt it in my heart, and when I looked up, I saw a cloud of white clouds appear in the sky, and those abnormal breaths came from the white clouds.

The white cloud approached quickly from the sky, and as the distance approached, Wu Zhongyuan's perception of the abnormal aura in the clouds became clearer and clearer, and there were five abnormal breaths, one Tailing, two Jade Void, and two Upper Void.

These five breaths are righteous and benevolent, not like the left way.

A moment later, the white clouds floated in, hovering at a height of 100 zhang, and a middle-aged man wearing an ancient court robe appeared, this person should be about fifty years old, dressed as an official, and holding a yellow silk cloth in his left hand.

At the same time as this person appeared, four young men also appeared behind this person, these four people dressed as soap officials, with their heads held high, and their long swords hanging from their waists, should be the entourage of this middle-aged man.

Just when Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran looked up in doubt, the middle-aged man took the lead in speaking, "Dare to ask Xiao Zhenren, what sect are you, where are your ancestors, who is your surname, and why can't you be checked by Heavenly Court?"

Although Wu Zhongyuan has never seen immortals, he has heard the legend of immortals from his master, and according to legend, Taoist priests have achieved success in practicing qi and reached the realm of immortals, and Heavenly Court will perceive it and send someone to descend to Heaven and lead him to Heaven.

"Take the liberty of asking, are you the Heavenly Court's guiding heavenly official?" Wu Zhongyuan asked rhetorically.

"Exactly," the middle-aged Tianguan nodded, "I am the Tianguan Zhou Zhi is also, the real person is young and promising, and he has been successful in practicing qi, and the upper court specially sent this official to pick him up, but the origin of the real person and the ancestral home of the sect are difficult to find, how can this edict be announced?"

"My name is Wu Zhongyuan. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Oh. The middle-aged heavenly official nodded, then spread out the yellow silk and read out the holy decree of the Mandate of Heaven, "The Jade Emperor has a decree, the nether realm Taoist Zhongyuanzi is enlightened to the heavens, he does good deeds in the world, and his virtue is not lost, and now the merits are complete. ”

The middle-aged heavenly official read out the holy decree issued by the heavenly court, and this holy decree should be a universal template, to put it bluntly, most people who have achieved cultivation are this set of words.

"Congratulations to the real person, congratulations to the real person," Tianguan Zhou Zhi congratulated with a smile, "Please accept the holy decree and return to the heavenly court with this official." ”

The matter of the heavenly official decree was completely unexpected by Wu Zhongyuan, because the incident happened suddenly, he was a little stunned, he naturally would not receive the decree and accept the decree, but he couldn't think of how to excuse it properly for a while.

At this moment, an auspicious cloud appeared in the air again, coming quickly from the eastern sky, and after a while, it reached the sky above the two of them, this time it was an ancient old man with white hair and wearing ancient official clothes.

The old heavenly official hurriedly came, appeared beside Zhou Zhi, and whispered to each other.

Hearing the words of the old heavenly official, Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded and gasped.

"If you don't look carefully, how can you take the liberty of announcing the decree in the lower realm? If you break the way of heaven and mess up the burden, how can you bear it?" the old heavenly official complained in a low voice, "If you don't apologize quickly, go early." ”

In just this moment, Zhou Zhi was already sweating profusely, raised his sleeves to wipe them off, and bent over his hands, "The lower officials were negligent in discerning, and almost messed up the etiquette, dare to ask the honorable to be tolerant and responsible, we will go here, and you will go calmly." ”

Zhou Zhiyan stopped, hid his body and left in a hurry with his entourage, and the old heavenly official bowed to Wu Zhongyuan, and then disappeared.

After a while, the two auspicious clouds all disappeared, leaving only Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran looking at each other with a blank expression.

"What's going on?" Wang happily looked at Wu Zhongyuan.

Wu Zhongyuan guessed, "I have already advanced to the Tailing, and in modern times, the Tailing cultivation is equivalent to the Heavenly Immortals, and they may have noticed that there was a Heavenly Immortal cultivator in the world, so they came to pass the decree according to the custom." ”

"I know that," said Wang happily, "but what I don't understand is what they meant by what they said before leaving."

"They must have discovered that I didn't belong on this plane. Wu Zhongyuan is not sure.

Wang Xinran was not satisfied with Wu Zhongyuan's explanation, but she also knew that Wu Zhongyuan's mind was not on this, and the top priority was to find Jiang Nan as soon as possible.

In the summer and autumn, it was dawning early, and it was almost dawn at this time, so Wu Zhongyuan carried Wang Xinran to the village and town in front.

This is Wu Zhongyuan's second return to modern times, the last time he was forcibly sent back, and he only came back with a soul, and he was very embarrassed, this time he took the initiative to return, he was fully prepared, and he had a very high level of cultivation, but he was not complacent about returning home, because he came back this time to find someone, not to visit relatives.

Because the hour was too early, there were no shops open in the villages and towns, and Wu Zhongyuan directly took Wang Xinran to the county seat, and the two of them are now located in the southeast of Shandong.

When he arrived in the county seat, there were more people, and Wu Zhongyuan himself could be invisible, but he couldn't help Wang Xinran to become invisible, so he had to change his modern clothes and walk into the city with Wang Xinran.

Now that the spirit worm is dead, he can't rely on the spirit worm to find Jiang Nan, so he can only hope for the eighteenth branch, after all, Jiang Nan came to the modern era with the golden eagle, the goal is larger, and it is relatively easy to find.

Wang Xinran found a restaurant that was open 24 hours a day, borrowed a phone to get in touch with the 18th Branch, and then ordered a meal to gobble up, compared with modern exquisite food, the ancient food seems to be very coarse, and there are few condiments, compared to modern food is more delicious.

Wu Zhongyuan's heart was heavy, he had no intention of eating, he sat by the window and looked out the window, anxiously waiting for the arrival of the 18th Branch......
