The arrival of the rain moistened everything and gave the already dry and sultry mountainous area a fresh feeling, and the rain also washed away many traces of the mountain forest soil, which brought difficulties to the investigation of the case. Lin Mu and the two policemen who accompanied him came to the side to hide from the rain, looking at the continuous rain, he couldn't help but be a little worried: "I don't know what happened to Brother Xu, if they haven't come back when the rain stops, I'll go find them." ”

At this time, Xu Minghao and Xu Yinyue couldn't find a place to hide from the rain on the narrow natural terrace, and the only shelter was the pine tree that they crushed, but its coverage area was too small, and it could only accommodate one person to hide underneath. Xu Minghao gave up this vacant seat very gentlemanly, but Xu Yinyue didn't appreciate it at all, she used her strong true qi to condense a protective film outside her body to block the rain, but Xu Minghao knew that she was doing this to consume her true qi very much, and it wouldn't take long to exhaust her true power. But no matter how he persuaded him, Xu Yinyue just ignored him, and seemed to be still angry about what happened before.

Although he didn't know exactly where he had offended her, he couldn't bear to see her alone in the rain, so he went to the trunk of the tree and let the rain beat him. He looked up at the sky, which was getting brighter, and he figured that the rain was about to stop. And he also missed the food and the soft bed, just when he fantasized about it for ten minutes, suddenly there was another thunder in the sky, he opened his eyes and looked up again, the sky became a black oppressive piece again, and the rain became heavier and heavier.

Lin Mu wandered back and forth in the grass hut, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, so he pulled Tang Qin aside and carefully asked her about the time when Xu Minghao and Xu Yinyue left, and then he excused himself to go to the toilet, and ran out quickly, running towards the depths of the poisonous insect forest, when he ran out, he was very remorseful, regretting that he didn't come out earlier, the rain had been falling for so long, and the footprints and blood stains on the ground had long since disappeared, and he went around the forest and was stunned and didn't find anything. "It's been a few hours since they left, don't let anything happen!" he muttered silently in his heart, although these two people are both Tianzi masters, but this wild survival experience is almost zero, in case they are injured by some unknown poisons in this deep mountain and old forest, it will be worth the loss.

His worries are not unreasonable, Xu Minghao and Xu Yinyue have been trapped on the stone platform for a while, the two of them have not eaten since they got up, and they are now tired and hungry. And Xu Yinyue, who used too much true qi to block the rain, gradually couldn't support it, and her true qi was consumed much faster than expected, so she was afraid that before the rain stopped, she would fall first. In desperation, she withdrew her internal strength, and when the rain hit her head and face, she completely felt this cold feeling, she couldn't help but look back at Xu Minghao, and saw that he was very righteous and drenched in the rain with her, and the previous unhappiness suddenly disappeared. But when she thought about it, why did she suddenly get angry? Could it be that she was too cautious, just because he had absorbed some of her own internal strength?

"Why are you stunned?" Xu Minghao couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he saw that she had withdrawn her internal strength and was looking at him stupidly.

Xu Yinyue didn't pay attention to him, but walked straight to the broken pine tree, she touched the Zixia Order on her chest, and sent a stream of pure Zixia True Qi inside, and then the Beidou Sword Formation activated. Seven sword qi gushed out from Zixia Ling, flying into the air like a wild horse that had escaped, and then she condensed her hands into her chest, and made a series of gestures, only to see that the seven sword qi circled around the pine tree a few times, and then split it into several neat planks, and then she picked up a few branches from the side and used true qi to penetrate it to the junction of the wooden plank, Xu Minghao was amazed to see that she put the wooden board that had been put together on another broken log, such a simple rain shelter was set up, she sat under the pavilion, silently recited a receiving, only to see the seven sword qi swishing back to the Zixia Order。

"Why are you in a daze, don't come in yet. Xu Yinyue patted the ground beside her, and asked Xu Minghao, who was still in the rain, to come in quickly.

Xu Minghao smiled and walked in quickly, but the ground was damp, and it was probably uncomfortable to sit, so he put his hands flat on the ground and smiled at Xu Yinyue: "I'll show you a hand." After speaking, he saw the smoke and blue true qi released from his palm, and the ground under the pavilion immediately condensed into ice needles, and soon the ground became dry.

"This is the Ice Jade Needle in the Ice Heart Formula. Xu Yinyue recognized the trick Xu Minghao used at a glance.

"Hahaha, good eyesight. If she knew that I used her ice heart trick like this, I guess it would... Halfway through the words, Xu Minghao realized that Xu Bingqing was no longer there, so he didn't say any more, and a trace of embarrassment and loneliness flashed on his face, and then he turned to say: "If your master knows that you use the Beidou Sword Formation like this, hahaha, I can think of the expression on his face at this moment." ”

"Do you like the Iceheart Saintess?" Xu Yinyue ignored his joke and instead led the conversation to what she was interested in.

"Maybe. Xu Minghao didn't know whether he liked her or not, because she was gone before he had that kind of affection for her. Since he talked about this topic, he took the initiative to talk for the first time: "Actually, I'm quite a scumbag, I have had relationships with people who have not determined the relationship again and again, but people who want to determine the relationship have withdrawn again and again." ”

"Uh... As an emotional novice, Xu Yinyue only felt that in the clouds, in her opinion, feelings were still too far away.

"You're young, you'll understand when you're older. Xu Minghao showed a smile that saw through everything, and then quietly watched the heavy rain that kept falling.

At this time, Xu Yinyue's head suddenly hit his shoulder, and he immediately tensed his body, just like Hui Yanagishita, and at the same time he also trembled in his throat and said: "You little girl, I just said that men and women don't kiss... Before he could finish speaking, he realized that something was wrong, why the head on his shoulder was hot. He quickly looked down and saw that her little face was red and her eyes were closed, as if she was asleep, but this high temperature was terrifying. He quickly helped her up, and carefully rested her head against the broken log.

"I'm going, it's so damp. Xu Minghao dried his clothes with real qi after entering the pavilion, and Xu Yinyue didn't know why she let herself be draped in such damp clothes. As soon as he put his palm on her shoulder, he withdrew it, thinking of the fact that he had said twice before that men and women would not kiss, he hurriedly put his hand at a finger's distance from her, and dried her clothes in the air with true qi. The True Qi consumed by this Void Technique was much more powerful than direct physical contact. As soon as he finished drying her clothes, he was already sweating. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at her increasingly red face, and thought to himself that this was not the way to go. So he reached out and took her pulse, "Strange... He replied uncertainly: "Why is the true qi in her body gone?" He tried to transmit some true qi into her body, and the true qi traveled along her meridians, but finally disappeared.

"It's weird, isn't it? Xu Minghao saw this symptom for the first time, he shook Xu Yinyue vigorously, but she didn't react at all, the whole person was sick, now Xu Minghao was in a hurry, this rain can't be heard for a while, and there is nothing here, but how can people be good. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stand back in the rain, and shouted to the sky, "Is there anyone! Help!" he shouted four or five times in a row, but the sound fell silent after a few times in the rain.

Lin Mu was also lost in the poisonous insect forest at this time, but the sudden call from afar drew his attention back, he hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound, ran and ran, the sound appeared in the opposite direction again, and disappeared in a few clicks, he hammered his head, thinking that he should not encounter a ghost hitting the wall, how could this happen in broad daylight. He ran back to the grass shed in despair, at this time the police comrades had already done a preliminary autopsy and forensics, and the two silver needles were indeed the murder weapons that killed Tang Qi, but in this weather, it was difficult to track down the murderer for a while.

"How is it, have you found them?" Ma Yuwen saw that Lin Mu was back, and immediately came to him with a towel and asked worriedly.

Lin Mu shook his head, and after taking the towel to dry his body, he sat down a little tiredly, and after sitting for less than a second, he suddenly stood up again: "I have a hunch that something happened to them." ”

"What!" Ma Yuwen's body couldn't help but take a step back, she picked up the umbrella from the ground and was about to rush out, but was grabbed by Erin: "Don't be impulsive, I'll let the Huashan disciples who went out of the mountain with Miss this time go to search first, let's wait for the rain to stop and then look for it." ”

"I'm afraid that this rain will rain for a few days and nights. Tang Qin learned that the two big bosses were missing, and the original grief turned into anxiety, she looked at the rain outside the window and said: "I asked the disciples of the Tang Sect to go out to search, if they are missing in this forest, the difficulty of this search is extraordinary." With that, she ran out of the house without an umbrella. After a while, the Tang Sect disciples ran out of the house wearing ponchos and rushed into the poisonous insect forest.

"I'll look for it again!" Lin Mu, who was still panting, stood up again, but was pressed down by Erin: "You haven't eaten since morning, let's fill your stomach first." ”

Now the most calm in the house is Erin, she has been worshiping under the gate of Huashan since she was a child, and she has been funded by Xu Yinyue's father, so she can continue her education, and after graduation, she is in this mountain for the Xu family to take care of and run the Rulai Inn, it can be said that the Xu family's kindness to her is difficult to repay in her life, and now the eldest lady of the Xu family is gone, she is calm, but she is the most anxious in her heart. But now, if no one is in command, I am afraid that everyone will be like headless flies, and their efforts will be ineffective. She took out a blank piece of paper from her bag, and called Tang Qin in from outside, and after the two drew a simple outline map of the mountain conditions, she pulled Lin Mu to the map and asked, "You said you heard their cries for help just now, can you mark the location on the map?"

"I'm not sure if it's them. The sound was left and right, and then it was gone. Lin Mu was a little unsure if the voice was his auditory hallucination.

"I think it's probably an echo. Tang Qin seemed to think of something, looked at Lin Mu with wide eyes and said, "And we are now at the top of the mountain, this kind of echo usually comes from below, it is very likely that they fell off the cliff?"

"They shouldn't make that mistake ... Unless... Lin Mu said a little incredulously.

"Unless... They met the murderer. Erin continued his words: "And this murderer's martial arts are very high. ”

"The Tenth Shade... Lin Mu gasped, if it was really the tenth ghost, then he would be facing Gu Xiaochen, who was already dead. If that's the case, it's no wonder they're falling off a cliff. After figuring out this link, and thinking of the voice he heard, it at least means that Xu Minghao and they are still alive now, and they are not far away, and what they have to do now is to find them quickly. Lin Mu casually picked up a few mouthfuls of food and stood up again, he said to Ma Yuwen and Erin, "I'll look for it again." After saying that, he rushed into the rain despite Irene's dissuasion. Although the rain was still falling at this time, it was much lighter than before, Lin Mu returned to the poisonous insect forest, and came to the place where he heard the shouting just now with his memory, he took a deep breath, and then shouted with all his strength: "Brother Xu!" His sound was like a thunderclap on the ground, which broke the peace in the entire forest, and many snakes, insects, rats and ants rushed out.

Xu Minghao was trying to use various methods to make Xu Yinyue wake up on the platform, but it had no effect. But Xu Yinyue's face became more and more red, and the red was a little unnatural. Xu Minghao reached out and touched her forehead, which was much hotter than just now. "If you keep raising this, you're going to burn out your brain. Xu Minghao silently recited a few times in his heart, and then silently ran the Ice Heart Technique and the Snow Ice Decision, these two double ice cold heart methods slowly condensed in his palm, he put his palm on her hot forehead, only to hear Xu Yinyue's body suddenly tremble, and then let out a refreshing sound. "It works!" Xu Minghao was overjoyed, and he continued to consume his true qi into his palm to counteract the heat generated by Xu Yinyue's forehead. After a while, Xu Yinyue's eyes twitched slightly, and then opened them slightly. Xu Minghao didn't dare to withdraw the hand placed on her forehead, because judging from the touch of his palm, her forehead was still hot.

"How do you feel?" Xu Minghao saw that Xu Yinyue's eyes were red when he opened his eyes, as if they were burning, so he asked with concern.

Xu Yinyue shook her head, her whole body curled up, and her appearance seemed to be very cold. It's hard to do now, is it because the cool air in her palms makes her feel uncomfortable? Could this be the legendary two heavens of ice and fire? Xu Minghao was distracted when he thought about it, but Xu Yinyue trembled even more. She reached out and grabbed his wrist, shook her head again, and said in a very soft voice, "Don't waste your efforts... This is a problem with my constitution, and this will happen once my true qi is exhausted. Just boil it up. ”

"But... I'm afraid you won't be able to survive like this. Xu Minghao withdrew his hand and asked anxiously, "What do I need to do?"

"It would be great if you knew the Zixia True Sutra, just pour the Zixia True Qi into my body and reactivate the dantian, and I will be able to recover. After Xu Yinyue finished speaking, she shook her head a little desperately: "It's a pity that you won't." ”

"I don't, you can teach me. Fast, time is pressing, and there is no delay. Her face became more and more ugly, and Xu Minghao knew that she was almost unable to hold on.

"But... ”

"Don't do it, if you waste any more time, you won't be able to do anything. Believe me. I'm a martial arts prodigy. ”

So, Xu Yinyue no longer hesitated, and forced her body to tell Xu Minghao the key to the Zixia Sutra. Xu Minghao frowned when he heard this, although this Zixia Sutra is only a few simple words, but as the saying goes, the road is simple, in such a short period of time, if you want to understand it, I am afraid it will be a little difficult. But Xu Yinyue's life and death were in front of him, and he had to go all out. Just when he was suffering from no ideas, a flash of inspiration occurred in his head, he had absorbed a large amount of her true qi before, although it was mixed with the tombfall true qi in his body, but it could be re-refined according to the formula, and in this way, it could greatly save time. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but praise himself for being so smart. He sat beside Xu Yinyue and began to refine Zixia True Qi according to the key of Zixia True Scripture. When he cleared his thoughts and sat down completely, his head roared violently, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the white tree again. He suddenly remembered that Tang Qi had said that he had also seen the sacred tree in his dreams, could it be this one? He walked around the white tree, and found that this time it was a little different from the previous time, the white tree was already covered with dense silver leaves, and these leaves shone like fish scales under the breeze. These lights made him almost shake, he quickly closed his eyes, but when he closed his eyes, he could still see the scene just now, at this time, several true qi suddenly appeared in his eyes, one was purple purple Xia true qi, one was black Yin evil true qi, one was gray-white snow ice decision, one was jade white ice heart technique, and the last one was cyan tomb fall true qi. He looked straight at the purple true qi, and the whole person seemed to be sucked into it, and the next moment his body beat violently, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that he was back on the rainy terrace, and Xu Yinyue beside him was already lying on the ground. Without saying a word, he pressed his palm against her back, and where his mind moved, Zixia's true qi poured into Xu Yinyue's body.

After he finished doing all this, he looked at his palm dumbly, originally thinking that after Zixia True Qi left his body, it would be stripped from the Tombfall True Qi, but when all the Zixia True Qi in his body disappeared, a new stream of purple True Qi began to condense in his body again.
