Yingtan City, which arrived at about 10 o'clock in the morning on 20 November, found a restaurant in the local area at noon and had a simple meal, and at about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Ning, Zhou Yu, and Jiang Tao came to Longhu Mountain and stood at the foot of Tianmen Mountain. Looking at the majestic mountains and the rugged mountains. The three of them were shocked. Marvel at the wonders of nature. They have been to Mount Tai, where the mountains are high and steep, and the strange peaks are inserted into the sky, which are obviously two styles from here. It is not as majestic as Mount Tai, but it is still too steep. There is no edge to be seen on the vertical peaks of the horizontal ridge. It's late autumn right now, if you come here in the summer. The scenery is sure to be even more spectacular and mesmerizing.

Looking at the tourist brochure with a detailed description of Longhu Mountain in his hand, Tang Ning couldn't help but sigh: "I was really lonely and unheard of before." I only know that there is a Heavenly Master Dao on Dragon and Tiger Mountain. I didn't expect that the origin of this Heavenly Master Dao is so big, it can be traced back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, more than 1,900 years ago. ”

"Yes, during the prosperous period, there were dozens of Taoist palaces and courtyards + wan + book + ロ ba, ♀ans♂ m amounted to dozens. No wonder it is called one of the ancestral gardens of Taoism. ”

"Okay, don't sigh for the two of you, what should we do next?" Jiang Tao has always remembered the matter of his little sister in his heart. Didn't bother to think about anything else.

"Jiang Tao, are the things I asked you to prepare ready?" Tang Ning asked him as he unloaded the backpack behind him.

Jiang Tao also took out a handkerchief bag from the backpack behind him and handed it to Tang Ning, "Just a dozen, is it enough?"

"Jiang Tao, don't worry. The ability to trace and track is unique in the world. Leave it to Downing, absolutely no problem. "There are priorities, if Zhou Yu at this time gags with this friend who grew up together, then he is not joking but looking for a lack of heart.

"Zhou Yu, map. ”

"Gotcha. ”

Walk to a secluded spot that doesn't attract attention. Zhou Yu spread out a map on the ground with an overview of the entire Longhu Mountain. The three crouched around the map. Downing took out a compass. Thaumaturgists walk the rivers and lakes, and the compass is indispensable. Normally, in the profession of Qimen magician, most of the people who want to find traces will use animal bones, tortoiseshells, grains and other mediums to divinate and divination, and rarely use a compass. However, the ancestors of the Plum Blossom Sanshou Gate found a unique way, not only invented the ground needle, but also used the compass to create a unique way to find. No wonder Zhou Yu boasted that his ability to find traces is unique in the world.

opened the handkerchief bag handed over by Jiang Tao, and wrapped the locks of hair about the thickness of a dozen hairs with red meridian needles gathered together, and the hair strands came from Jiang Li. To find someone with a compass, you need something close to the target, and the more close it is, the higher the accuracy. Preferably from the target's body, such as hair, blood, dander, nails, etc.

The meridian needle, which emitted a faint glow, made a slight humming sound, rotated rapidly, gradually, the speed began to slow down, and finally pointed to a direction, Tang Ning pinched his fingers, and muttered in his mouth: "Between the void and the danger" staring at the map on the ground. Stretching out his hand, he said, "Here!"

Zhou Yu hurriedly looked closer, and there was a red dot. Next to it is written the three characters of the Heavenly Master's Mansion. Hurriedly said: "Tangning, it's the Heavenly Master's Mansion, in Shangqing Ancient Town. ”

The ancient town of Shangqing is at the foot of the mountain, only four or five kilometers away from Tianmen Mountain.

"Let's go. Jiang Tao stood up suddenly, grabbed his backpack and was about to leave. Tang Ning hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute!"

The meridian hand on the compass had just stayed for more than a dozen seconds, and then it was spinning slightly. pointed in another direction. The hands swayed slightly from side to side, as if searching for or hesitating. After another two minutes or so, the hands buzzed again and stopped moving. Stubbornly pointed to the southeast.

"What's going on?"

"The Heavenly Master's Mansion is not Jiang Li's last place to stay, she has entered the mountain. It's a pity that if I had known, I would have been able to follow her closely. Tang Ning put away the compass, slid his finger on the map, pointed to one place, nodded with his fingertips, looked up at the two of them, and said, "Probably in this range." In order to find the exact location of Jiang Li, we must reach this range. ”

"This is the heart of Longhu Mountain, which I see. It seems that there is no open primeval forest in this area, but there is also a Taoist temple? Besides, can the girl move so fast? The compass shows that she was still in the Heavenly Master's Mansion just now, so she is a hundred miles away in the mountains?"

"The compass determines the location by the criterion that the subject's last breath remains in the dwelling place for one to two hours. According to the current time, it is about two to four hours, that is to say, Jiang Li left the Heavenly Master Mansion three or four hours ago. Trust me, you can't be wrong with the direction the compass shows. Let's go, let's go over first, and then we'll talk about it when we get to the place. ”

The three of them packed up and set off immediately.

The best way to reach the area designated by the compass is not to take a sightseeing car, but to go down the mountain and take a bamboo raft, although it is late autumn, as long as the river is not frozen, the ferry will not stop. Along the Luxi River all the way through the mountains and mountains. It is possible to reach the designated area before dark. There is another possibility.

When he was in Beijing, Jiang Li left about four hours ahead of them. The three of them were busy asking for leave and making excuses to hide from the people around them, so they hurried to the airport and took this small domestic regional flight to Jiangxi. This is already the earliest flight from the flight that departed from Jiang Li.

So from Beijing to here, the three of them are only about four hours away from Jiang Li. There is a good chance that they will catch up with her. Don't lose it.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon. It was less than an hour before it got dark. The trio landed at the foot of a mountain. There are many peaks on both sides. The cliff is like a knife cut, and hundreds of hanging coffins can be vaguely seen on the cliff wall.

Just glanced at it, didn't bother to take a closer look, and hurriedly plunged directly into the mountain. Many of the weeds and shrubs on the ground and the surrounding trees still maintain a lush green color. Presumably, it is the reason why the surrounding mountains are humid and the temperature is slightly higher than outside, which delays the arrival of autumn.

All three of them were cultivators, and they were moving extremely fast. At about half past five, he had already traveled seven or eight miles through the mountains and forests. At this time, the surrounding trees are also getting taller and thicker, and the huge shade is almost connected, and only the slightest gap can see the skylight. The weeds underneath him have also reached half a human height. slowed down their travel.

"Wait, take a break. Zhou Yu's face flushed, wiped the sweat on his head, and said a little breathlessly: "Jiang Li's girl's speed shouldn't be so fast, right?

Tang Ning's breath was not stable, he took off his backpack and took out the compass from it, after operating, the direction of the meridian needle was still pointing to the depths of the forest, and the direction he was pointing to was already deep and dark. A gust of forest wind blew, not only the coolness hit the body, but also the strange sound of rustling or some kind of animal howling was heard in the forest from time to time.

"Jiang Li is not an ordinary person, her speed will not be slower than ours. And she came with a purpose. The goal is single, direct, and there is an accurate destination. It's different from us, we are now taking one step and guessing two steps, and the speed can't catch up with her. ”

"I don't think so, this is the first time that the little girl has come to China since she grew up so much. Even if she knew where she was going, she couldn't go straight through the deep mountains and old forests for the first time, and it would definitely be difficult to go straight ahead, just like us now. "I can't help but admit that what Zhou Yu said is very reasonable. Primeval forests are no better than city streets. It's not like you can get to the ground if you are familiar with the road. You have to take your time.

Tang Ning smiled lightly and said, "What if someone took her with her, or if someone gave her some guidance when she was in the Heavenly Master's Mansion? You must know that on the Qimen rivers and lakes, there are quite a few objects with special functions unique to each sect and faction!"

"Tang Ning is right, the Heavenly Master Dao has a long history, and the inheritance of nearly two thousand years has never been broken, and the mystery and strength of this sect are beyond our grasp. Let's go, if we wait until it's completely dark. Not only will the temperature in the woods drop, but there may also be some danger. Jiang Tao glanced at the two of them and once again soared his speed. Of course he was not afraid of danger or anything, but what he was worried about was Jiang Li. No matter what, she is a little girl alone, and she doesn't know what's going on. In this case, it is estimated that it will be difficult to protect oneself in the event of an emergency. So I was so anxious that I couldn't wait to fly to my little sister immediately.

It's getting darker and the visibility is getting lower. It's getting colder and colder. Tang Ning injected a spiritual power with yang gang attributes into the two of them during the march, first, the power of yang gang can resist a qiē yin evil and the miasma that permeates the damp woodland, and second, it can also be used to keep out the cold.

As time progressed, the surrounding objects were completely invisible, and Tangning's spiritual sense played a great role.

About an hour or so passed. Tang Ning suddenly beckoned the two to stop and raise the compass in his hand. With an infusion of spiritual power, the compass glowed slightly red in the dark forest. Clearly visible.

"It's the place, it's here. I'll see where Jiang Li is. You two get out of the way. ”

Zhou Yu pulled Jiang Tao back two steps. Tang Ning's body was short, and he quickly turned his legs on the spot, and the blades of grass flew one after another, sweeping out an open space of about two meters. Sit cross-legged. Placing the compass in front of him, he grabbed the strands of hair wrapped around the meridian needle with two fingers and pinched it. The other hand broke a three-inch-long blade of grass with his fingers beside him, broke it in half, his fingertips shook slightly, and suddenly, a few strands of hair wrapped around his fingertips ignited a cluster of small flames, and in the blink of an eye, the flames burned out, and Tang Ning smeared the burning hair ash on his fingertips on two blades of grass, and then put the blades of grass on the center of his eyebrows, and wiped them horizontally on both eyelids.

His eyes closed for a few seconds, then suddenly opened.

The unique technique of the plum blossom scattered hand door, the view of heaven and earth.
