Li Tianqi had no choice but to say: "Returning to Grandmaster Uncle Yuan, Senior Aunt Xuanyin, when the disciple met with Xiaoyue yesterday afternoon, he talked about the conversation he heard in the gambling stall that night, so in connection with the scene of stealing chickens a few days ago, the disciple speculated that they might be looking for something, so ......."

Venerable Xuanyin suddenly stood up, "Did you just go and find that thing?" ”

Li Tianqi nodded and said, "That's right, I found it in the end." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Venerable Xuanyin asked anxiously, "What is it?" ”

Li Tianqi said: "That thing is slightly smaller than the copper coin, about two inches long, a black cylindrical thing, and there is nothing peculiar about it...... By the way, it looks like iron and not iron, like wood and not wood, but it feels heavy in your hand. ”

Venerable Xuanyin had never seen such a thing in her life, she lowered her head and didn't think about it, but she saw Venerable Yuanzong also looking up at her, both of them shook their heads slightly, thinking that neither of them had ever seen such a thing.

Venerable Xuanyin asked, "Where is that thing now?" ”

Li Tianqi shook his head and said, "I originally put it under the pillow, but when I got up this morning, I was gone." ”

Venerable Xuanyin asked, "How is that possible?" Even if you don't sleep awakely, isn't Uncle Song next to your room? Didn't he notice it either? ”

Li Tianqi sighed secretly and said, "The disciple is too tired, and Song Bo has not come back when he falls asleep. ”

Venerable Xuanyin's face was a little heavy, and he sat down slowly.

Venerable Yuanzong said: "Although we don't know what this thing is, it must have a lot to do with it, and the alliance of the White-clothed Sect and the Assassin must have known that this thing fell into your hands......"

Li Tianqi hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Uncle Yuyuan, the disciple thinks that this should not be the reason, that thing was hidden in the chicken coop by the person who pretended to be a monster for at least more than a month, and the people on both sides did not ask them, how could it be that as soon as it fell into the hands of the disciple, Xiaoyue's whereabouts were suddenly unknown?" ”

Venerable Xuanyin said: "Listening to what you said, since Feng Haozi and Lu Liu have both joined the White Cloth Sect, the White Cloth Sect wants to have nothing to fear, so they are not in a hurry to ask them, and the Assassin Alliance has already suffered losses before, so it sent a second wave of people to find the door, of course, there will be no conflict soon." But now everything that both sides want is in your hands, and after this time, in fact, both sides have losses, but you are wearing the Dao robe of the Heavenly Master, and Xiaoyue is also dressed as a Dao Gu, you said that where will the White Cloth Sect and the Assassin Alliance go to find someone, they will definitely come to us. ”

Li Tianqi pondered the words of Venerable Xuanyin, which were similar to what he had thought before, but now the most worrying thing in his heart was whether there was a third-party force, because even if the White Cloth Sect and the Assassin Alliance knew that the thing was taken by him, how could they immediately arrange for someone to follow him in such a short period of time? If there is a third party, and it is in the dark, then things are very difficult.

Venerable Yuanzong said at this time: "Since that thing is gone, someone must have stolen it, but the person who stole it may not be the same group of people as the person who robbed Xiaoyue, and the person who robbed Xiaoyue may have been trying to ask about the whereabouts of this thing." ”

Venerable Xuanyin asked Venerable Yuanzong, "Grandmaster Yuan, what should we do with it?" ”

Venerable Yuanzong glanced at Li Tianqi and said, "Although he has not officially started, he can be regarded as half a disciple, and if he hides something from his elders, he should be punished for a month." ”

When Li Tianqi heard this, he knelt on the ground on his knees and said to the two seniors: "The disciple knows that he is wrong. The disciple didn't want to avoid punishment, but asked Sect Master Yuan and Master Xuanyin to remember the disciple's sincerity, can the disciple be allowed to punish after finding Xiaoyue's whereabouts? ”

Venerable Xuanyin said slightly: "Li Tianqi! We have our own opinions on the matter of Xiaoyue, when will it be your turn to intervene? Regardless of whether you are capable or not, but this matter is caused by you, and this crucial matter is concealed, if I hadn't interrogated you again and again, maybe you wouldn't have said it, right? ”

Li Tianqi heard that Venerable Xuanyin was also angry, and he didn't dare to squeak anymore. Although he really wanted to help find Xiaoyue's whereabouts, he could only do it in a hurry.

Venerable Xuanyin continued, "You should avoid suspicion and stop meddling in this matter in case things change. I will send out the mighty men to look around. And the person who thought of her captor was only for the black thing, and he would not hurt her. You may even reach out to us. ”

Li Tianqi stood with his head down, and said with some frustration: "Yes." ”

At this time, a female Taoist priest hurriedly walked over and said to Venerable Xuanyin: "Master is above, the head of the gate ordered that the food handed into the pass should be doubled from today onwards, and the disciple has not encountered such a thing, I am afraid that the head of the gate has been closed for a long time, and I don't know if there is a ......."

Venerable Yuanzong and Venerable Xuanyin were also secretly surprised, and Venerable Xuanyin asked, "Oh? The head of the sect has been in retreat for more than five years, why do you have to eat double meals today? ”

Venerable Yuanzong asked the female Taoist priest, "What other instructions do you have besides doubling the amount of food?" Do you hear what's wrong with the boss? ”

The female Taoist priest said: "I didn't hear anything unusual, maybe the head of the sect hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse." ”

After hearing this, Venerable Yuanzong muttered to himself, "Could it be that this is one of the characteristics of the fusion of the two techniques? ”

Venerable Xuanyin asked, "Sect Master Yuan, you have a lot of experience, what do you think?" ”

Venerable Yuanzong said: "This is the first time the old man has heard of it, but it should be fine. Now that you have a great appetite, you may be about to succeed. Permit. ”

Venerable Xuanyin nodded, and then said to the female Taoist priest, "Yes, tell the cook to do it." ”

"Yes." After the female Taoist priest finished speaking, she left in a hurry.

Although Li Tianqi didn't know what the connection between retreat cultivation and food was, he was very cautious in his style of acting as a female Taoist priest, and she was indeed a trustworthy person.

Venerable Xuanyin said: "This girl usually doesn't talk much, and she acts extremely cautiously, Uncle Yuan, you see that she just encountered something that felt something different, so she came over to tell her." ”

Venerable Yuanzong said: "Well, Xuanyin, all the apprentices you have received in the past two years are all extraordinary, and with a little dim sum training, there will inevitably be outstanding people."

"Thank you, Sect Master Yuan, for the compliment." Venerable Xuanyin bowed his head.

She glanced at Li Tianqi, who was standing with her head down, and said, "Li Tianqi, do you have any objections to our disposition?" ”

Li Tianqi arched his hand and said: "The disciple is not talented, and there is no objection to the disposal, but I implore you to find Xiaoyue." ”

Venerable Xuanyin said indifferently: "Of course. Okay, you go back to the house and clean up, and someone will take you to the cliff face for a month later. ”

Li Tianqi retired in arrears.

After Li Tianqi left, Venerable Xuanyin let out a long sigh, and Venerable Yuanzong asked when he saw this, "Xuanyin, you seem to have something on your mind?" What's wrong? Don't worry, the little magpie Ji people will not be fine if they have their own natural appearance. Besides, although the Heavenly Master Dao does not intervene in the grievances of the rivers and lakes, who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head and pluck the hair on the top of the tiger? ”

Venerable Xuanyin said: "Xuanyin has already advocated about the little magpie, but it is for Li Tianqi, this kid, ......."

Venerable Yuanzong softened his face and said, "Maybe the old man is a little stricter with him, but this kid is indeed smart and sensitive, just by his speculation, he can recognize the monster dressed as a person, and he can find that strange thing, Xilin can be regarded as a unique eye." ”

Venerable Xuanyin said: "But he deliberately concealed it, but it made people have to doubt his character." ”

Venerable Yuanzong slowly stood up and said, "Xuanyin, Uncle Shi knows that you still have that Xilin in your heart, but people have been gone for so many years, do you sometimes see that Li Tianqi as Xilin?" It's like you're going to protect it for a while, and you're going to fight it again. ”

Venerable Xuanyin felt that her cheeks were hot, and there were already two red clouds, and she said, "Uncle Shi, don't say any more. ”

Venerable Yuanzong said: "In the past few years, Xilin has not come to trouble us, it seems that he is not what the head of the sect is worried about, maybe everything is just our own speculation." People don't have that kind of mind at all, and if that's the case, those of us who claim to be famous and decent are really jealous of the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. ”

Venerable Xuanyin sighed: "Master, although you usually look extremely strict, in fact, your heart is quite ......."

Venerable Yuanzong said: "You are right, although the master has always prided himself on being fair and strict in dealing with things, he has always been obsessed with the Xilin incident, and there must be a reason for it. Although there has been no evidence to prove it, I still believe that one day the truth will be revealed to the world.

Venerable Xuanyin said faintly: "I just said that Senior Uncle actually cares about Senior Brother Xilin very much, and sure enough, ......."

Venerable Yuanzong shook his head slightly: "Let's go." Do not say. Hurry up and arrange for someone to find Xiaoyue's whereabouts! ”

"Yes." Venerable Xuanyin arched his hand and said, "Master go slowly." ”

Venerable Yuanzong waved his hand, and the person had floated out of the side hall.

Li Tianqi returned to the wooden house and packed a few sets of clothes, and at this time, a middle-aged Taoist priest came over, saying that he was going to take him to the cliff face to think about it......

On the other side of the cliff where the Demon Hall was located, the Ascetic Cliff was an isolated mountain that looked like a chopstick stuck in the ground.

A chain bridge spans both sides, and although it is not as foggy as the demon hall, the mountain wind is more urgent.

Li Tianqi staggered and finally walked to the ascetic cliff.

The ascetic cliff is actually a natural cave, but there are dozens of black stone caves the size of a sea bowl in the cave, which are distributed on the rock walls used to face the walls around them, and when people are quiet, they can still hear the howling sound of whining like hyenas coming from these stone caves, even terrifying, I think this is also the characteristic of the ascetic cliff.

The floor by the rock wall was full of sunken stone pits, and I asked the middle-aged Taoist priest that it was a pit that the disciple who had thought about it here had squatted and sat down for many years.

Hearing this, Li Tianqi couldn't help touching his buttocks, thinking that he didn't have such skills yet.

The middle-aged Taoist priest saw that Li Tianqi had walked in, so he went back to recover his life.

Although the ascetic cliff is a place facing the wall and is not guarded, it is required to consciously abide by it, and at this time, only Li Tianqi is punished here.

Li Tianqi naturally understood this truth, although he was indeed very concerned about Murong Xiaoyue's whereabouts in his heart, but since the elders seemed calm after understanding the whole story, he had no choice but to stay here honestly.
