The sun sets and the moon rises, the light and darkness are intertwined, and it is late at night.

Houhu Lake is an artificial lake, the base of the pond is artificially excavated, the water is also artificially drained, the embankment on the lake is full of traces of modern industry, but the strange thing is that there seems to be no nearby residents willing to stay here to relax, only the nearby Daonan University is always from time to time to circulate some anecdotes about college students who committed suicide by jumping into the lake.

In the last hour of the day, Xiao Er walked along the lake path to the pavilion in the center, where Wen Lian sat down, this was decided by them in advance, the exchange of hostages only required the two of them to be present, and the rest of the people continued to recuperate, just waiting for the first battle of Yin.

Wen Lian watched Xiao Er walk steadily, sat down beside her, and felt that his temperament and mood were a little different, and when he looked at the technique of luck, sure enough, the black qi between Xiao Er's eyebrows and Yu dissipated a lot, and he was vaguely the smart young man she was familiar with.

"When you go to school, you feel a lot calmer. Wen Lian smiled slightly, and the heart that had been hanging since he knew that Xiao Er's realm had been frustrated finally let go.

"Since you decided you want to fight, you've calmed down a lot. Xiao Er said with a smile, he and Wen Lian have a lot of hearts, and naturally they can feel the changes in Wen Lian's mood.

"The Seven Divine Powers Realm is still in a fierce battle, anyway, there is no one higher than our realm in Sucheng except for the foothills of the mountain, and a quick knife to cut through the chaos is the best plan. Wen Lian looked at Xiao Er with a smile, as if explaining the decision that had not been consulted with him, his eyes were like water.

During this time, she was upset, she was like thunder, she was uncertain, half of the cultivation and half of the king.

If he is all right, she will be all right.

Xiao Er patted her lightly on the shoulder: "It's okay, I'm just worried that the mixed pearl may not be able to defeat the begging treasure jade bowl, and the other party has another box magic weapon in hand, and your Haoran Wat Six Qi Jian is not a magic weapon with the power of attack......"

Wen Lian's eyes flashed: "In my calculations, the begging treasure jade bowl has not been able to completely subdue Luofu's Nine Evil Monuments so far, and to completely seize a mountain gate magic weapon like Lingguan Luofu that has been cultivated for many years, it is not something that a demon cultivator who has only entered the Tao can do, Lin Guanfu just threw a mixed bead to him to eat, and he can also hold the begging treasure jade bowl for a long time without moving, as for the Yin and Yang upside-down box, I use the six qi jian to drag it out." ”

Xiao Er nodded, since Wen Lian said so, there is no need to worry about the two magic weapons, as long as he and Zhao Goxiao can defeat Shu Aotian and Zhang Jiuzhong, who have no magic weapons, the battle will be won tomorrow morning.

Time passed little by little, Wen Lian looked at the lake, and suddenly asked, "How sure are you that Zhang Jiuzhong will switch back to Lin Chenchen regardless of it." ”

Xiao Er took his gaze away from Wen Lian and sighed: "In the dark past, in the bleak and cold world, only each other can trust and accompany each other, rely on each other, and find the only meaning of their existence in each other...... It's a very precious feeling. ”

Is it because of empathy? Wen Lian looked at Xiao Er, but did not speak at all.

He appeared abruptly in this world with her twenty years ago, without a father, without a mother, without cause or effect. Her memory began when she was adopted by her adoptive father, Xiao Cungui, and her memories before that were all blurry except for Xiao Er's face, but he seemed to be different.

Wen Lian once asked Xiao Er if she knew that the two of them came from, and Xiao Er only said that she didn't know, but until now she has always felt that Xiao Er knew a lot of things she didn't know before that.

"Here he comes. ”

Xiao Er looked at the other side of the lake, and a figure came slowly in the night, it was Zhang Jiuzhong.

Zhang Jiuzhong came to the lake alone, looked left and right, and walked directly on the water, under the hazy moonlight, like a demon.

Wen Lian and Xiao Er stood up and let him into the pavilion.

Zhang Jiu glanced at Xiao Er and Wen Lian again, did not speak, just waved his hand lightly, a burst of black smoke flashed, and the unconscious Gao Huanyu, Ji Weimian, and Situ Guanyu appeared on the ground.

In another three hours, there will be another fight, Xiao Er and Zhang Jiuzhong have nothing to say, and with a shake of the "receive" character, the five demons who were beaten back to their original bodies were piled up in the pavilion, and the narrow pavilion suddenly seemed crowded.

After the two sides used means to find out that their hostages were safe, they put away their wounded again, Zhang Jiuzhong turned around in silence, and still walked away.

Wen Lian looked at his departing back, and Xiao Er, a divine sense transmission, said, "You and I will join forces now, and it will be easy to capture him." ”

Xiao Er shook his head: "It's better to say goodbye." ”

"Because you don't want to break your word?"

"If you want to catch them all, don't startle the snake," Xiao Er walked out, "Let's go, the Environmental Investigation Bureau has been keeping a close eye on us, and the gap in these few hours is not easy to find." ”

Wen Lian nodded and left after him.

In the night, the two of them turned into streamers, and quickly fled on the outskirts of Sucheng, and soon stopped in a farmland in the western suburbs, and Wen Lian induced the Six Qi Jian, and a wisp of clear clear qi rose from a corner of the soil and fell into her hands.

"This is the first possible place. ”

Xiao Er raised his eyes and looked around, there were still a few miles away from the Sucheng New District in the east, a small village in the west that combined urban and rural style, and a small hill in the north and south.

"Can you calculate the time?" asked Xiao Er.

Wen Lian shook his head: "There is no warning, just a few words from you, there is no way to start." ”

"Okay, let's go to the next place. ”

Within two hours, the two of them wandered around Sucheng City, as if they were looking for something, going back and forth for dozens of miles, investigating several locations, and then just after two o'clock in the morning, they arrived at a rough building in the riverside area that was temporarily requisitioned by the Environmental Investigation Bureau.

Lin Guanfu and Zhao Goxiao, as well as more than 20 members of the Law Realm Environmental Investigation Bureau, have been waiting for a long time.

"Get ready, and do it as soon as the sky changes. ”

Wen Lian didn't intend to explain to them what the two had done before, but Xiao Er didn't say a word and released the three disciples who had been replaced.

Zhao Goxiao didn't ask much, just nodded to all the staff.

Before leaving, he had called to ask Deputy Director Du of the Divine Realm who was away on business, but Deputy Director Du ordered him to bring all the Dharma Realm cultivators who could still be mobilized by the Sucheng Environmental Investigation Bureau to fully cooperate with the offensive operation.

At this time, half of the monks he could call were guarding the other portals of the demon domain that Wen Lian had calculated all over Sucheng, and these twenty-two people attacked the demon domain with him, and the Sucheng Environmental Investigation Bureau really poured out this time.

He watched with a calm face as Wen Lian woke up Gao Huanyu and the others, and Xiao Er explained the current situation to them softly, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

Zhao Goxiao is not afraid of death, what he is afraid of is that the situation is out of the control of the Environmental Investigation Bureau. These dead soldiers, who take the maintenance of stability and order as their first rule, have an instinctive fear of unknown chaos and uncontrollability.

In another specially prepared quiet room, the hardwood incense burner is emitting smoke, and the mysterious runes carved on the ground and the soft light on the ceiling reflect each other, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

Lin Guanfu sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and breathed. At this time, his skin was as bright and ruddy as a baby, his face was natural and serene, the incense clouds on his head were swirling, and his body was clear and clear, and he was awe-inspiring like a fairy.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the door.

"Is it Senior Brother Situ? Come in. ”

Then the footsteps moved, and a handsome young man who was a little feminine turned around the entrance and walked in, it was Sima Guanyu, the junior brother of Lin Guanfu who had just woken up.

As soon as Situ Guanyu came in, he shrugged his nose, and then hurriedly walked to the bed, and said with concern: "Senior brother actually used Mingqi Yuanxiang, is the injury so serious?"

Lin Guanfu shook his head and said: "My injury is fine, but I will call the mixed bead later, and I still need to recover to perfection as soon as possible, this incense is a gift from the Qinglian Fairy, but you and the two fellow Daoists have just woken up, you don't need to make a move in this battle, it is better to have a good rest." ”

"Senior brother is incompetent, Senior Brother Lao is worried about ......" Situ Guanyu sighed and sat beside Lin Guanfu, "Senior brother usually prides himself on being the pride of the sky, but I didn't expect that this time I went down the mountain so unbearable and insulted the reputation of the teacher." ”

Lin Guanfu shook his head and comforted: "Senior brother, you don't need to think about it, the setback pass is the due meaning of the master's order for me to go down the mountain to practice." After going through the calamity, shame and courage, with this experience, the road should be smoother in the future. ”

"I know all these truths, but I ...... in my heart," Situ Guanyu smiled bitterly, but then changed his words, "And I just listened to Xiao Er's plan of action tonight...... , alas—don't you think tonight's actions are a bit hasty?"

"What do you say?" Lin Guanfu frowned.

Situ Guanyu leaned in a little closer, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, in the battle of the southern suburbs cemetery the day before yesterday, those monsters actually knew everything about us, and senior brother couldn't use the mixed beads, so we were defeated...... Senior brother, think about it, that plan was proposed by Xiao Er, and it was Xiao Er who was damaged by fighting with Senior Brother...... This time it's the plan of action he made with the Qinglian Fairy, and I'm worried about ......"

"Hugh wants to talk nonsense!" Lin Guanfu's face sank, "What's in it for him to harm us, not to mention that he and the Qinglian Fairy came at the last moment that day to save the situation, junior brother, don't think nonsense." ”

Situ Guanyu sighed: "This is really where the senior brother is worried, senior brother, think about it, now the young generation of Kunlun talents are withering, the leader of this sect is none other than you, the senior brother of my Lingguan Sect, this time you have been repeatedly frustrated by the senior brother of the mountain, and all the credit has been taken up by the Wen Lian Fairy......"

The three sects under the Dao have been in the same qi for thousands of years, but it is naturally impossible for the righteous leaders in the world to have three at the same time, Situ Guanyu is naturally stirring up trouble at this time, but the relationship between Kunlun and the two sects of Lingguan in the past few years cannot help but Lin Guanfu can't help but think about a few more layers.

"Senior brother...... Isn't it overthinking......

"Senior brother!" Situ Guanyu made a heartbroken statement, "You are not a person, since someone has come to count you, my Lingguan Sect has been hiding in the East China Sea for thousands of years, but it has been repeatedly involved in turmoil and calamity, some things, lessons from the past." ”

"Then what do you think I should do?" Lin Guanfu asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

"At this time, all the supernatural predecessors are fighting in the southern suburbs, we might as well strike first and take this opportunity to get rid of Xiao Er!" Situ Guanyu said.

When Daomen disciples go down the mountain to practice, they are the most prone to accidents.

The so-called process of cultivation is nothing more than seeing oneself, seeing heaven and earth, and seeing sentient beings.

And for a disciple with extraordinary talent like Lin Guanfu Situ Guanyu, in order not to waste his qualifications, Shanmen must have ordered him to practice penance since he was a child and ask less about the world.

And once people put too much effort into themselves, they will inevitably only know that they have oneself and do not know others, and they will not be able to see all beings in heaven and earth, which is the obstacle that practitioners will encounter, and it is also the reason why monks "go down the mountain to practice".

If you can't pass this level, no matter how peerless a genius is, you can only stop, or even fall into the devil's path, so the monk descending the mountain is often called a tribulation.

It's just that the power of the people who have gone through the tribulations is too strong for the mortal world, and they boast of the right path and it is difficult for them to act without scruples, so they actually unconsciously become potential calamities for others.

Heaven and man operate, calamities and tribulations, this is the way of heaven that cultivators never forget.

Situ Guanyu looked at his senior brother earnestly, while Lin Guanfu closed his eyes and pondered.

After a long time, Lin Guanfu suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Situ Guanyu and said, "When you were in the southern suburbs, why did you attack Xiao Er?"

"This ......" Situ Guanyu asked unexpectedly, and was speechless for a while.

Suddenly, Lin Guanfu swept the dust into a net, rolled towards Situ Guanyu, Situ Guanyu struggled, and his mana skyrocketed, but he didn't break free, and was immediately firmly bound.

"Senior brother, you!" Situ Guanyu looked frightened.

Lin Guanfu hit Situ Guanyu Qi Sea with an ice spell and sealed his mana: "When I woke up with Gao Huanyu, my mana was exhausted, why did you still have mana?"

Situ Guanyu was stunned, Lin Guanfu said coldly: "Those two woke up in a daze, I don't know what day it is, and Xiao Er didn't talk about it in detail, why do you remember that the battle in the southern suburbs was the day before yesterday?

Situ Guanyu's face changed greatly, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

"I think about it now, the matter of Tiansen Mansion, Senior Brother Qi's behavior is abnormal, there should be you stirring up trouble inside, right?" Lin Guanfu sighed deeply, cast a spell to isolate the internal and external voices, and took a deep look at Situ Guanyudao, "When I went down the mountain, the master said to me in private, although we did not inform the Kunlun Luofu Second Sect, but there is indeed a loss of classics in my Lingguan Gate, but it is just a matter involving a family thief, and it has not been investigated." And in the battle in the southern suburbs, the opponent knows us and knows each other, how can I not think about it too much, and now that you are so eager to jump out, it makes me sure that the inner ghosts that flow out of these three classics are only afraid that they are in my spiritual gate. ”

Lin Guanfu was in a complicated mood, and he needed to say more, but he suddenly felt a change in the qi between heaven and earth.

"That's it, Huishan has all the uncles of the punishment to ask you for details. Lin Guanfu stretched out the sleeves of his robe, put away Situ Guanyu, and then strode out.

Everyone is ready to go.
