530 torment
Mu Ying is a treasure of the spirit grass, what spirit grass grows where, what is the growth cycle, and what is the effect. You don't have to think about these things, you can talk about them casually. It's just that the materials used in this refining tool, except for those related to plants, she really doesn't know the rest.
What kind of stone, she really hadn't heard of the name.
"It's really uninsightful."
Seeing Mu Ying's embarrassed look, the gray-clothed man pursed his lips and urged, "Hurry up and deal with this demon beast, and continue to hurry after eating!" ”
Mu Ying's hand paused, "Are you in a hurry?" ”
"Of course." The gray-clothed man nodded as a matter of course, and said viciously, "If you hadn't delayed my time, I would have arrived early." ”
His spiritual power was sealed like a mortal, but the man in gray was not, if he was really in a hurry, then there would be thousands of ways to reach the destination quickly, why rush with his legs like Mu Ying?
Although he has an aura on his body, he walks differently from Mu Ying, and he doesn't feel tired at all, but it is still time-consuming after all. I don't need to use the magic weapon of flying, I love to walk, but I still blame Mu Ying for walking slowly?
"Oh?"
Mu Ying asked casually while shedding the skin of the demon beast, "So urgent, but I don't know where to go?" ”
"You'll find out where you're going later." The man in gray didn't fall for Mu Ying, and glanced at her lightly.
Mu Ying lowered his head, blocked the look of disappointment in his eyes, and began to speed up his hand.
Even if he doesn't urge, Mu Ying is also hungry. Naturally, I wanted to eat the food in my mouth quickly.

"How's that, any news?"
When Mu Jin stepped into the main hall, he happened to see a disciple just walking out of it. At the moment, he asked Cheese Zheng excitedly.
"Just now the disciple returned, the gray-clothed man disappeared near Jiunan Peak, and if you look for it again, you can't find any trace of him." Situ Zheng frowned, and his worry was obvious.
"What is the identity of the man in gray who can make Xiao Ying have no resistance in his hands?"
Mu Jin's face was shocked, and he became more and more worried about Mu Ying.
The efficiency of the Immortal Cloud Sect is still very high. After determining that Mu Ying might have suffered an accident, Situ Zheng had already sent someone to investigate secretly, but it was only one day. They discovered the existence of this gray man.
The gray-clothed man chose to make a move near the Teleportation Array Hall of Immortal Spirit City because there were many people here, and his figure was easy to drown in the crowd, and it was not easy for Mu Ying to notice and cause vigilance. But it's the same thing. It is precisely because there are many people there. So that scene was actually seen by someone.
However, these people didn't dare to say it anywhere after seeing it, and no one knew what the identities of Mu Ying and the gray-clothed man were, so they were also afraid that if they said it, they would be discovered and killed. But after the disciples of the Xianyun Sect's Law Enforcement Hall were dispatched, these people's mouths couldn't be tightened, so the scene about the gray-clothed man taking Mu Ying away, after all, there were still some subtle voices that reached Situ Zheng.
They already knew that Mu Ying was stunned just by turning around, and then he was taken away without knowing it. And then on. The gray-clothed man quickly fled with Mu Ying to the vicinity of Jiunan Peak, but when he went to look for it again. There was no trace of him.
Jiunan Peak is known for its steep mountains, and that person is good at hiding, and once he enters the mountain, it is even more difficult to find him. What's more, he may not be still in Jiunan Peak now, maybe he has already changed his appearance and reorganization, and fled elsewhere with Mu Ying.
The man in gray was covered with a drop of water, and he couldn't see anything except his eyes, but the gray clothes were not his skin, he could change it if he wanted to, as long as he changed it, who would recognize him?
So now the investigation has reached an impasse and there is no way to move forward.
"Mu Jin, don't worry." Qing Mei and Sang Yuan were also sitting here, they were reporting to Situ Zheng about the specific matters of the disciple selection, so they also heard the words of the disciples.
"No matter what, there's no way that person wants Mu Ying's life. There is hope in life, and I believe that Mu Ying will definitely find an opportunity to send us a message. ”
"Yes." Sang Yuan nodded, "He is in the dark, we are in the light, it is not easy for us to find him out, but as long as he has a plan, he will definitely show his feet." ”
"You mean ......"
Mu Jin, who was full of thoughts, was stunned for a moment after hearing Sang Yuan's words, and then his eyes lit up slightly.
"Mu Ying's most coveted thing is nothing more than her wealth and alchemy." Sang Yuan analyzed, "We guessed before that this person is likely to be one of the guests who participated in Mu Ying's Jindan ceremony, since this is the case, if this person is seeking wealth, it will inevitably put the cart before the horse, and if it is alchemy, Mu Ying's life will be safe." ”
"But it doesn't matter if he's doing it for money or alchemy, he'll always make a move, either by selling some pills or buying some spirit grass. We can stare at this and see if there will be any findings. ”
Whether it's buying or selling, you always have to deal with people. And to reflect the value of a seven-grade alchemist, the items bought and sold will definitely not be mortal, and the amount will not be small, if it is really as Sang Yuan said, then if you carefully investigate the vicinity of Jiunan Peak, you may be able to find something.
"I guess there's a high probability that they're in Jiunan Peak, after all, it's easy to hide people there, and when you get out of there, the risk of exposure increases." Sang Yuan added.
"I hope so."
Mu Jin nodded, everything about the gray-clothed man is unknown now, and they don't have any good methods, so they can only use this method to try.
"It's a pity that there were too many guests that day, and it was too unrealistic to check his identity one by one, and there was no way to find out." Qingmei sighed.
On the day of the Jindan ceremony, there were a large number of people who came, from all over the world, and there were some people with quite noble status. So even if they want to screen out the clues of the gray man one by one, in fact, they can't do it at all.
There are so many people coming, not to mention how much energy it will take to check them all, just to say that this move is so big, it will inevitably cause a lot of speculation, which will never be a good thing for Xianyun Sect and Mu Ying.
"Now the selection of disciples has begun." Situ Zheng opened his mouth at this time, "This has been publicized in advance, and it is impossible to change it, so if this is the case, then you can only do it according to the plan." ”
Originally, he was still thinking about whether to let Mu Ying participate in the selection of disciples from the beginning, but now that something like this suddenly happened, Mu Ying would definitely not be able to participate in it.
The time for the Immortal Cloud Sect to accept disciples had already been notified to the mainland monks, so they could only start this matter as originally planned, as for Mu Ying's acceptance of disciples......
"If the disciples have already been taken in, but Xiao Ying has never been able to find it, what should I do?" Mu Jin asked worriedly.
Speaking of the disciple test, this is indeed quite gratifying, when this news spread, the entire continent was boiling for this, of course, the focus of people's attention was on the number of chief disciples accepted by Mu Ying, the seventh-grade alchemist.
Since she said that she wants to accept apprentices, she will definitely choose a famous apprentice in the end, who knows if this great good thing will fall on her head? Therefore, as long as there are eligible people in the family, they all participate in the registration and selection, which also leads to the fact that the participants in this disciple test are several times that of the previous time, for this matter, the Xianyun Sect also sent a lot of deacon disciples to manage this matter, just to be able to select the best disciples.
This matter is now talked about by everyone, and everyone is speculating about which family this disciple who can be selected by Mu Ying will come from, and there are some children with good qualifications and spiritual roots who have already emerged.
But now Mu Ying is gone, if the last disciples are all accepted into the sect, but Mu Ying does not appear, won't this make everyone say that the Xianyun Sect is playing tricks and tricking everyone?
You must know that this time is different from the past, in the past, some big families did not want their disciples to enter the sect to cultivate, and felt that they had not yet obtained many cultivation resources and a good environment in the family. But this time, because of Mu Ying's identity as a seven-rank alchemist, many big families have already sent their children with the highest qualifications in their families, just so that they can have the opportunity to gain Mu Ying's favor and accept them as apprentices. If Mu Ying hadn't come forward in person in the end, how could they give up?
"If that's the case, you'll have to find an excuse to drag it out." Qingmei's eyes flashed slightly, "For example, Yunyi Zhenren is refining a new seven-rank pill, and he has been in retreat for several days, and he can't stop at the critical moment?" ”
Hearing this, Mu Jin only nodded. Then he cast his eyes into the distance, full of sorrow.
"Now I just hope that Xiaoying can come back safely and suffer less."
******
Mu Jin's expectations could not come true at all at this time.
Mu Ying, where can she suffer less, she has simply endured all the hardships!
The gray-clothed man didn't know if he had a grudge against Mu Ying, he simply tossed her in a different way on the road, always didn't give her food to eat, didn't give water to drink, and sometimes in order to toss Mu Ying, he also deliberately hunted a monster beast with rough and inferior meat for her, so that Mu Ying had to suffer such torture when she had to eat in order to save her life.
For example, the day before yesterday, the demon beast that the gray-clothed man hunted for Mu Ying was a sharp-tailed stone monster with strong bones but quite rough flesh, this stone monster not only looked like a stone, but the flesh was also hard like a stone, Mu Ying looked at the corpse of the stone monster and was stunned for a long time, but the gray-clothed man did not spare her, saying that if she didn't eat it, then he would never find her any food in the future.
In desperation, Mu Ying could only be aggrieved, she originally wanted the gray man to roast more meat, and it might be better to bake it if it was cooked, but the gray man only roasted it six or seven years old, and when Mu Ying ate it, there was not only blood, but the hardness was not much different from gnawing stones.
After that meal, Mu Yingzhi felt that his toothache had been for several days, but fortunately, the gray man seemed a little more merciful at the next meal, and got Mu Ying some normal food.
And not only in terms of food, but also on the road, he also made Mu Ying suffer a lot. (To be continued.) )
