The night is like ink, in the guest room.

Shen Mo suddenly rolled over from the bed, and the Ruyi in his mind was restless, and vaguely conveyed to Shen Mo a longing, the source of which pointed to the top of the mountain.

He looked from afar, and the Yuelu Mountain at night was like a giant hidden in the night, and the top of the mountain was like a giant's head, exuding steaming white gas.

That white breath is not someone else, but an aura. Undoubtedly, that place is the focus of the Five Elements Liuhe faction's contention: Yunlu Peak!

If such a place where the aura is conceived suddenly attracts a ruyi vibration, then it is likely that there is only one explanation: there is a cave heaven there.

Aura is like water, there must be a source. Yuelu Mountain is not a spiritual mountain, why is the aura at the top of Yunlu Peak like smoke?

This doubt, Shen Mo had it a long time ago, but he didn't think about it from the side of the cave sky, and thought that it was the aura gathered by the predecessors of the Five Elements Liuhe Sect through the formation. But now it seems that there is only a fear that there is no formation there, and the cave sky is very likely to exist.

Just like the cave in the Silent Hills, as time passed, the aura leaked out, rendering the nearby place into a place where the aura gathered.

After thinking about this, a glint flashed in Shen Mo's eyes, and his body turned into a black shadow, swept out of the window, and galloped away in the direction of the top of the mountain.

Yunlu Peak, as the important place of the Five Elements and Liuhe faction, especially when it is approaching the Battle Flag Competition, is extremely tightly defended, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is three steps and one post, and ten steps and one sentry.

Shen Mo used his body technique to the limit along the way, and evaded the patrolling disciples without danger, like a black eagle, disappearing into Yunlu Peak.

On the Yunlu Peak, layers of forests and stones.

Silently walking through the trees, his feet light as a cat, scurrying towards the position where Ruyi was pointing, and as he was about to approach his destination, he suddenly heard two slight voices.

If it weren't for the silent cultivation of "Qiankun Battle Record", his facial features were far sharper than ordinary people, and he really wouldn't have noticed the deliberately suppressed conversation in front of him.

He crouched down sharply, hiding his figure under a large locust tree, and listened intently.

First, a hoarse voice came: "As long as everything goes well tomorrow, we will act according to the plan." ”

"It's okay on my side, the first flag must be in the bag. A cool voice responded.

Shen Mo was taken aback, and the second voice was very familiar to him, it was Wang Chang'an, who had only met for a long time.

It's just that this guy doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, and he goes to this wilderness to chat with people, there must be some unsavory secret.

When he was wondering, the two people over there didn't say much, and left in a hurry after a few simple words.

After waiting silently for a while, he slowly stood up, the corners of his mouth hooked, and muttered, "It seems that this flag cutting contest is much more interesting than I imagined." ”

Regarding the search for the entrance to the cave, Shen Mo had quite a lot of experience, and after a few brief turns, he stood still in front of a crooked-necked tree, and this place was the place where Wang Changan had talked to people before.

"It seems that I am not the only one who discovered the cave. ”

When Shen Mo found this, he did not enter the cave, but made a mark on the tree and turned to leave.

The overheard conversation tonight made him feel that tomorrow's flag cutting competition will not be too peaceful, so let's not startle the snake first, and wait until the ring is over.

Unconsciously, he returned to his room in silence and cleaned the dirt from the soles of his feet and the leaves on his body before lying on the bed and pretending to sleep.

Nothing happened overnight.

Shen Mo woke up again, and it was already eight o'clock in the morning. Wu Zining waited at the door early, with a set of toiletries.

He smiled silently: "My nephew is bothered. ”

Wu Zining rolled her eyes and snorted, "If it weren't for Grandpa's orders, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to you, hurry up and wash up, and then I'll take you to the martial arts platform!"

Five minutes later, Shen Mo followed Wu Zining out of his residence and walked along the bluestone path to the martial arts platform in Wu Zining's mouth.

The competition platform is not far from Yunlu Peak, which is a large square covering an area of thousands of square meters.

In the center of the square, there is a ring made of white marble, which is one zhang high, and there are four statues erected around the ring: the green dragon, the white tiger, the red bird, and the Xuanwu, all of which are extraordinary.

After looking at it silently, he said: "This ring costs a lot of money, and your sect is quite rich." ”

Wu Zining glanced at silence and said: "We have cooperation with the Tourism Bureau, and we occupy a third of the shares in the development of Yuelu Mountain Scenic Area. ”

nodded silently and said: "That's also very good, such a big sect, and they are all people who practice martial arts,

Eating and drinking every day alone is an astronomical amount. The fact that your sect was able to work with the tourism board proves that the original decision-makers were very visionary. ”

Wu Zining showed a noncommittal expression, Yang Qisu pointed forward, and said: "The game starts at ten o'clock, and the people are almost here, you should prepare, you must perform well." ”

Shen Mo raised his eyes and saw that the square was full of disciples. These disciples were faintly divided into two rows, facing each other on the left and right, and their eyes were not kind to each other.

On the side of Liuhe's legs, Wang Changan was surrounded by the stars and the moon in the center, and he was full of arrogance.

Next to him stood a very strange black-robed man, all shrunk in the shadows, like a night ghost.

The man looked like he was twenty or thirty years old, and I heard Wu Zining say that it was a foreign aid invited by Liuhe Leg, and he was fighting the second fight, and he was specially here to deal with Senior Brother Li.

Shen Mo asked, "Who is Senior Brother Li?"

Wu Zining's eyes showed a look of adoration, and said, "Senior Brother Li's real name is Li Fengyu, and he is a Tianjiao figure among the fourteenth generation of disciples. Now it is the strength of the middle stage of internal strength, and it is the next generation successor of the Five Elements Fist. ”

Shen Mo was surprised: "So, this Senior Brother Li is very powerful, and he actually hired someone to deal with him." ”

Wu Zining said proudly: "Of course, in the last five years of the flag cutting competition, Senior Brother Li broke through the second ring with his own strength, and then challenged the third champion.

If it weren't for the lack of internal strength, he would definitely have won! This time, Senior Brother Li will definitely have a better grasp when he returns to the ring, as long as you win the first flag, Yunlu Peak will be ours. ”

After listening silently, he couldn't help but ask, "What about the third fight?"

Wu Zining's face became ugly, and he shook his head after a while: "This is also the main reason why we are looking for you, this time in the flag cutting competition, there is a fault line among our martial artists in the third ring." ”

"Fault?" Shen Mo was surprised, his first thought was Could it be that the martial artists from thirty to forty years old on the Five Elements Fist side are all dead?

Wu Zining seemed to know what Shen Mo was thinking, glared at him, and said, "Don't guess, my senior uncles happen to be over forty years old and can no longer participate in the Flag Chopping Competition.

And this age is very embarrassing, and it is easy to attract jokes when asking for foreign aid, so we will have this phenomenon of losing before fighting.

However, this situation is not only for us, but also on the side of the hexagram, which is not unusual. ”

"Therefore, you and Senior Brother Li are the hope of hundreds of disciples of my Five Elements Fist, and any loss of the game is a foregone conclusion.

Senior Brother Li, I'm not worried, the key lies in you, your cultivation of the Five Elements Fist is still short, I'm really afraid of an accident......"
