Lingling City is the largest city in the north of Cangzhou, and its prosperity is far greater than that of Xiangcheng in Chenzhou.

When Xue Yun and his party entered Lingling City, both Su Run and Zhou Yan already knew the identity of Xue Yuan's Xue family, and they also knew that she could not be easily recognized, so they were not surprised that Xue Yuan tried to hide his appearance before entering the city, and would help cover up.

It wasn't too early for the four of them to enter the city, so they didn't wander around the city much, and rented a small courtyard with a medium protection formation from the Treasure Pavilion shop in Lingling City, and lived in it directly.

After arriving at the rented courtyard, after entering, the formation was opened, and after Xiao Luo personally walked around and adjusted and strengthened it, the four people who came all the way from the border of Cangzhou in Qiaozhou finally breathed a sigh of relief and could take a good rest.

After only a little trimming, the four of them gathered together and talked about their next steps.

Naturally, mainly, they need to continue to investigate the truth.

For example, Qishan Hui.

Su Run thought back to all the words of Qishanhui in Su Zhen that night, and frowned slightly: "Who deceived Qishanhui and gave him the formation diagram of the Blood Sacrifice Soul Formation Formation, and now there are no clues to follow." As for the identity of Qishanhui...... I'm afraid I have to start from the '7,000 years ago' that he seems to be referring to. ”

"Seven thousand years ago......" Zhou Yan muttered and thought for a while: "If you want to say that at this time seven thousand years ago, the first major event that anyone thought of was that the great catastrophe in Kyushu, right? The influence of the Kyushu Tribulation is far-reaching to this day, and it is said that the monks of the Kyushu continent seven thousand years ago can still transcend the merger period, reach the Mahayana, cross the tribulation, and even be able to soar, the spiritual power is rich in many sects, and there are countless magic weapons and spiritual treasures inherited, which is the best time for cultivators to practice in order to seek the way of heaven." Unlike today...... Qi refining, foundation building, Jin Dan, Yuan Ying, distraction, the level of cultivators is broken here, and I have never heard of a monk in the Kyushu Continent who is in the merger period or above. After the catastrophe of the year was relieved, I don't know if something went wrong, or if the original catastrophe was too dangerous and tragic, and the Kyushu Continent will need a longer period of recuperation to recover......"

What Zhou Yan said is a well-known story on the Kyushu continent, a legend that has been passed down by people for 7,000 years, whether it is a cultivator or an ordinary person, they have at least heard of that period that is too far away for them in the story, the most brilliant era.

In addition to the demon clan that can be regarded as beloved, the monks of the human race, and Shouyuan are all related to the level of cultivation. The Qi refining period is one hundred and fifty years, the foundation is three hundred, the gold pill is five hundred, the yuan baby is one thousand, and the distraction is three thousand. Since the Kyushu Tribulation 7,000 years ago, there has been no trace of a distracted monk or above on the mainland. The high-ranking monks of 7,000 years ago were also unable to advance anymore, and they ran out of life and disappeared in these 7,000 years.

Everything 7,000 years ago, among the human race, has long been lost to witnesses, only legends remain.

On the other side of the sea, the demon clan, because the demon clan's longevity is far longer than that of the human race of the same level, there should be some clansmen over 7,000 years old. It's just that the demon clan lives far away on the other side of the sea, protected by a natural barrier, and rarely interacts with the human race.

Zhou Yan suddenly remembered something and looked at Xue Yuan: "Hey, the Kyushu catastrophe seven thousand years ago, isn't it...... The people of the four great families will know more, huh?"

Zhou Yan is not talking nonsense, but it is a very reasonable guess.

After all, everyone in the Kyushu Continent knew that there was a catastrophe seven thousand years ago. Similarly, everyone who lives in the Great Thousand Realms and Kyushu also knows that it is the ancestors of the four great families, Feng Xue, Li and Tang, who turned the tide in the catastrophe seven thousand years ago and saved the entire continent for future generations.

For 7,000 years, the four great families have established an unshakable position and prestige in Kyushu, and it is based on this Kyushu catastrophe that has become a legend.

Xue Yan shook his head at Zhou Yan: "...... Although I was born in the Xue family, what I have heard since I was a child is not much different from what everyone knows. At the most...... At most, there are only so many of the Xue family's great achievements in it. What kind of situation was it seven thousand years ago, within the Xue family, I haven't heard anything special, they are all ancient, they are all stories, and they can't be traced. ”

Zhou Yan blinked: "That...... If even the four great families who participated in the Kyushu catastrophe at that time and accumulated great merits did not know the details of what happened 7,000 years ago, then Qishan returned to ......"

Xue Yun twisted his eyebrows slightly: "...... I don't know more, maybe...... There are also reasons why I am not qualified enough. ”

"Huh?"

Xue Yun laughed mockingly: "Although I was also a descendant of the Xue family, I am a junior after all, and I am ...... I didn't care about any of that, and then I ...... I won't let me know about family matters, especially important secrets. ”

Zhou Yan asked, "Do you think that what happened seven thousand years ago may be a secret in the Xue family?"

Xue Yuan shook his head: "I don't know, it's just a guess." I didn't think about it before...... There are many things in the Xue family that I don't know. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Luo looked at Xue Yuan, who was slightly hanging his head, and sighed in his heart.

He knew that she remembered the incident of Qingyun Dan.

Zhou Yan sighed: "That...... Is this clue broken? Then again, this is not necessarily what Qishan is referring to, and we can't confirm it. ”

Su Run glanced at Xiao Luo and said in a deep voice: "I think that the more I think about it, the more it looks like." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Xiao Luo looked up at Su Run, and nodded in agreement: "That catastrophe coincides with the few words of Qishan on the night of his return. ”

Xue Yun reacted: "At this point in time of seven thousand years, there are still ......'Kyushu overturned'?"

"Then ......" Zhou Yan's eyes widened: "Did Qishan say anything on the night he returned, and then condemn him when Kyushu overturns in the next day......?" What did he do to cause another catastrophe like the catastrophe of 7,000 years ago?"

Xue Yun and Xiao Luo didn't speak, Su Run looked at Zhou Yan, whose face changed in shock, and said in a deep voice: "...... It's not impossible. ”

"This ...... This ......" Zhou Yan couldn't help but get up from the stool and walk back and forth in the small courtyard: "This ...... Is this such a big deal? Who is that Qishanhui? Isn't he just a Jindan Great Perfection monk, and he hasn't even arrived yet? What ability can he pry into the whole of Kyushu? This ...... I can't think of it!"

Su Run thought about it and asked a key: "What was the cause of the Kyushu catastrophe seven thousand years ago?"

Su Run's question came out, and there was silence in the small courtyard.

This question...... The four people present really didn't know.

Because the time is too long, there is no longer a witness among the human race, and it has gradually become a legend, people know that there was such a catastrophe 7,000 years ago, but what was the cause, what was the situation at that time, how the four great families combined to tribulation, all kinds of details, no longer circulated in Kyushu.

"Ahhh......h

Xiao Luo said: "If Qishanhui, or the ancestor of Qishanhui, is indeed related to the Kyushu Tribulation seven thousand years ago, then it is not strange that he knows some secrets." ”

Zhou Yan thought about Xiao Luo's words, and then thought of something to guess: "That...... Is it possible that Xiao Luo's strange and incomplete Kunwu knife, which can only be used at a critical juncture, is it possible that it is a weapon that has some reputation seven thousand years ago, and Qishan has read the records or heard the ancestors talk about it, so he recognizes it?"

"If that's the case...... Su Run obviously thought of it, looked at Xiao Luo, and then turned his head to look at Xue Yuan: "The 'origin' that Qishan replied about, should it be the same situation?"

Xue Yun pursed his lips, looked at Xiao Luo, and met the gaze he had also seen.

The situations of Xue Yun and Xiao Luo are similar, but they are different.

The golden power that Xue Yu got appeared in the mountain range of the streamer grass, and for some reason it was crazy in the body of the giant python.

Although Xiao Luo's Kunwu knife had been partially fused back in the mysterious valley in the mountain range and became a little more complete, it originally belonged to Xiao Luo, and it was the pendant that his master Xiao Ding had been wearing on Xiao Luo when he picked it up.

The only common thing that can be counted as a clue is the Streamer Grass Mountains.

Especially...... During the period when Xue Yu and Xiao Luo successively obtained the golden "Origin" and the Kunwu fragments, the vision of the Streamer Grass Mountain Range was very great, which alarmed many nearby monks, and they entered the mountain one after another, thinking that the spiritual treasure was born.

What is the connection between that mountain range, that valley, and the great catastrophe of 7,000 years ago?

"Then ......" Zhou Yan thought for a while and proposed: "Let's wait for the wind to pass, do we want to go back over there and go into that mountain range to investigate?"

After Su Zhen's life and death tribulation, the differences between Xue Yun and Xiao Luo have long been undisguised in front of Zhou Yan, Zhou Yan has won the trust of the two like Su Run, and has not hidden anything. On the way from Su Zhen all the way to Cangzhou Lingling City, Zhou Yan also learned that Su Run left alone at that time and entered the mountains to find the cause and future affairs of Xue Yun and Xiao Luo.

Listening to Zhou Yan's proposal, Xue Yuan thought about it, and slowly shook his head: "At that time, the two of us took a closer look, and there was ...... around There should be no more anomalies. ”

"Besides, in the past so many times, there have been too many monks looking for treasures in the mountain range, and there is really nothing to ......" And later, there was such an incident in Su Town near the mountain range, which attracted the attention of many families and forces.

Zhou Yan was deflated: "Alas, is it possible, you have to cross the sea from the east of Cangzhou and go to the territory of the demon clan to find someone to ask, so that you can have a result?"

Su Run glanced at Zhou Yan: "The demon clan lives overseas, but if you ask about the human race, you don't welcome the human monks of the Kyushu continent." ”

"I know. Zhou Yan pouted: "I'll just say it." ”

This half a day of hard work, guessing and guessing, guessing is more and more frightening, but there are no more directions and clues, temporarily trapped in place and don't know where to start, almost can be regarded as a result, except for a clear thought, there is no result.

"Or, let's think about it first?" Zhou Yan really didn't want to be worried about this clueless but probably very big thing all the time, scaring himself, so he thought about changing the topic first and diverting his attention: "Anyway, I forgot to ask before, you and Xiao Luo originally had something to investigate, right?"

“...... Well. Xue Yun slowed down, took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Yan, thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Ah Yan, can I ask first, there is a person, what do you think?"

"Who?"

“...... Zhenjun, Yuan Che. ”

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, opened his eyes unconsciously, and after a few pauses, he calmed down in the eyes of the other three.

The other three, especially Xue Yun and Xiao Luo, saw Zhou Yan's reaction, and they lifted their hearts.

Obviously, Zhou Yan seemed to know something.

Xue Yun and Xiao Luo's affairs were not hidden from Zhou Yan, although Zhou Yan was stunned by this question, he would not hide the two of them. The expression on his face sank, and he opened his mouth and said bluntly: "Yuan Che is a scum!"

The other three were stunned for a moment.

Zhou Yan's eyes widened, and in addition to resentment, there was also a little more expectation in his eyes: "Since you asked me so, is it ...... You also know that? The so-called Yuan Che Zhenjun is simply a liar thief who deceives the world and steals his name, and he didn't write it!"

"Yan! you...... How do you know? and...... Do you know anything else?"

Zhou Yan confirmed from Xue Yuan's reaction that she did know the inside story like herself, so she was also a little excited. This secret, even if she is indeed a little naïve and ignorant of the importance of many times, she also understands that it cannot be easily leaked, and she has been pressed in her heart since she knew it, and she did not dare to spit it out easily. Now......

Zhou Yan licked his lips and continued a little nervously: "I...... Six years ago, I met, a surviving, Shangguan family member. ”

Xue Yun stood up from the stool abruptly and looked at Zhou Yan excitedly: "Have you seen someone from the Shangguan family?"

Zhou Yan nodded vigorously: "Yes, six years ago, I pestered my father and followed him from Qiaozhou to Cangzhou to purchase some special medicinal materials, and in the south of Cangzhou, I saved a young girl." At first, she was very defensive, with injuries large and small on her body, and the old and new looked particularly embarrassed. I took care of her for a while, and I wanted to take her back to Qiaozhou while my father's business was done, but she ...... Leave me a letter and leave without saying goodbye to my face. It wasn't until I read the letter that I knew her name, and I also knew about their Shangguan family and Qingyunjue. She said...... Her name is Shangguan Miao. ”

Shangguan Miao.

Xue Yuan didn't know this name, a member of the Shangguan family, she had only heard one name from Wen Xian, Shangguan Ming.

But...... Maybe......

Will Lu Yan know?

Speaking of which, although she and Xiao Luo first learned about the existence of the Shangguan family from Lu Yan's mouth, they really didn't ask him in detail what the name of his friend surnamed Shangguan was, but now it is difficult to compare.

It's just that the affairs of the Shangguan family and the people of the Shangguan family should be ...... No one will deliberately admit it.

Shangguan Miao......

Six years ago, it appeared in the south of Cangzhou, scarred...... Could it be that since the escort of her father Xue Yu eight years ago, something happened to the Shangguan family and they fell into the situation of being hunted down and killed again?

"Ah Yan, now you and that Shangguan are ...... Do you know where she is now?"

Zhou Yan had already understood that what Xue Yun and Xiao Luo originally wanted to investigate was something related to the Shangguan family, but she really didn't know about this, so she only shook her head regretfully: "No...... After she left, we didn't contact each other. But...... From where we were at the time, and later guessed...... Most of them left Cangzhou from the south. ”

The long and narrow strip is located in Cangzhou on the east coast of the mainland, connected to Yuanzhou, which occupies the most extensive area in the west, and bordered by Nazhou in the south.

Nasty Prefecture, another top force in the Kyushu Continent, the territory of the Yin Sect.

Shangguan Miao...... Is it possible to go to Naught State?
