However, it disappointed everyone.

The weather was fine for the next few days, and Zi'er was still jumping in front of her to lead the way, but it didn't find a single rare herb.

Kui is about to call the bird.

In order to make Zi'er happy, Kui Yan took great pains to pick out evenly sized particles from the dry food and make them colorful, which was specially used as bird food for Zi'er.

Zi'er happily ate this hard work, but after eating, she just ate.

"It's not a good bird at all. ”

Feeling that his intentions were in vain, Kui Yan scolded with a resentful smile.

Zi'er turned around and rolled her eyes at Kui Yan, unwilling to leave by herself, so she flew up to the shoulder of Yushan and drilled into her neck.

Yushan's long hair naturally hangs down, forming a "small house" with his neck and shoulders, and becoming Zi'er's nest.

Liang Rou quipped to Kui Yan: "This is called intentionally planting flowers that do not bloom." ”

Kui Yan looked at Yushan and said with a flattering smile: "Please don't have the intention to insert another willow and willow shade, that's hundreds of taels of silver!"

Yushan smiled and didn't answer.

The unexpected harvest of a three-hundred-year-old cloud ginseng has been unexpected, and from the beginning to the end, I didn't have the luxury of hoping that Zi'er would be a treasure hunting bird.

Along the way, everyone dug up a lot of common herbs.

The young and young disciples also specially cut bamboo, and each made a small basket to facilitate the storage of medicinal herbs with soil roots.

Digging up the herbs with the soil to ensure the integrity of the root system is what Yushan emphasized, saying that it is to ensure the survival rate as much as possible, and to bring it back to the sect and plant it in the medicine field.

The procession traveled to the northern section of the southern branch of the Yunmeng Mountains.

There is a small town in the southwest of the peak, called Porcelain Town, the soil here is special, called fire mud, which refers to the soil is resistant to fire, suitable for the manufacture of porcelain, and the porcelain town is named after this, and it is the largest porcelain production area in Yunmeng County. Porcelain Town is not too far from Yunmeng County, and there is a tributary river that flows into Yunmeng River through Porcelain Town, which is convenient for water transportation.

There is also a small town in the northwest of the peak, called Firecracker Town, which also has a tributary passing through and joins the Yunmeng River, which is named after the firecrackers set off during the New Year.

The local workshop will be able to charcoal powder, saltpeter powder, sulfur powder mixed into the size of the same length of the small bamboo tube, sealed and plugged in the lead, and then the lead wire in order, the bamboo tube into a long row, ignited after the bamboo tube one after another burst out loud sound, very festive and lively, in order to leave the New Year and welcome the new year.

The procession descends the mountain into Firecracker Town.

The occasional sound of firecrackers in his ears prompted the locals, who said that some firecracker makers were testing the effect of the finished firecrackers.

The locals are enthusiastic, but their brains are too active and shrewd.

Seeing a group of fifteen people and five donkeys, the locals worked hard to sell local products and firecrackers, hoping to make some money from these passers-by.

It's really hard to be enthusiastic, and Yushan asked Kui Yu to buy some local products other than firecrackers.

Under the guidance of an inconspicuous local who didn't remember his face, the group left the town and headed northwest into a hilly area.

According to the guide, after climbing over the hill and going forward for dozens of miles, you will see the county seat.

Liang Rou pondered for a while, and there was no problem with the general direction.

The older and knowledgeable Elders Liang Feng and Liang Luo also confirmed the path.

So the group entered the hilly area.

The hilly area is mostly small hills and small valleys, and the occasional convex peak is not too high, and the road is not difficult to walk, but there are many winding small valleys that are confused, and there are no obvious identification signs, which makes people feel like walking into a labyrinth.

Elder Liang Feng sometimes ran to the top of some higher hills, and after seeing the road ahead, he quickly went back quickly.

When they reached an open field, the two elders were the first to be alert.

Then Liang Rou rode the mountain, frowning slightly.

In the end, Kui Yan also intuitively panicked, and his heart palpitated.

As for the ten young and girl disciples of the Dual Yuan Martial Realm, they didn't feel anything yet, and from time to time complained that the hills and valleys in this area looked too unpleasant, as if they were deliberately manipulating, making it easy for people to get lost.

Fortunately, I finally entered an open field, which made people feel refreshed.

"Be careful, this place seems to be uncovered, but it also exposes us completely to the eyes of others, and I feel that there is something wrong with it. Liang Rou sent a message to Yushan.

Yushan nodded, and his gaze swept to a few ravines in the wilderness.

If there is an enemy in ambush, it is most likely to hide in those ravines.

The four Soul Martial Realms began to use their divine senses to probe those ravines, Elder Liang Feng and Liang Luo were responsible for the left and right directions, and Liang Rou and Yushan were responsible for the front.

The march slowed down and moved cautiously.

It's not been peaceful all these years.

First of all, the dean of the Yunmeng Martial Academy was attacked and seriously injured, and then he didn't know where to hide and recovered, and disappeared, even the Yunmeng Martial Academy was crushed and dispersed by the strange beasts, and he was never seen to show up to preside over the overall situation.

A few months ago, Lord Hu Tu, the chief master of the Forging Institute, was attacked and was wounded and stranded in Jiangbei.

As a result, it is easy to go out and come back, and it is not easy to come back, and if you don't do it well, you can't come back unharmed.

Liang Rou suddenly exerted Yuan Li, and Yuan Li extended out along the slender jade hand, like a fluorescent long arm, pulling back a sword from the donkey's back.

The sword came out of the sheath, three feet, Qingfeng.

The spirit sword was in hand, Liang Rou waved his arm and held it back, the sword body was erected, the tip of the sword was facing upward, close to the green silk on the fragrant shoulder.

At the same time, with two groans, Liang Feng and Elder Liang Luo also held swords in their hands, which were also three-foot spirit swords.

The three of them are all sword cultivators, and the spirit swords in their hands are all from the Yunmeng Martial Arts Academy Forging Academy, which may be cast by Hu Tu or Qiu Da Hammer.

However, the people who forge swords, Hu Tu, Qiu Dazhu, Zhang Qianzhu and other people in the forging academy, but most of them are martial artists, and there are very few sword cultivators, and they are almost not seen wearing swords, of course, this does not mean that they can't fight with swords, after all, they are sword forgers, how can they not understand swords?

Yushan has no sword, and has never played with a sword.

He hooked his fingers and pressed the bracer he had been wearing.

This pair of bracers was given by Uncle Hu Tuhu before he went out, and they looked uneyed on the outside, like ordinary decorations, not showing mountains and water.

But it is forged by a special metal, which is extremely tough and invulnerable to the sword.

The previous attack in the dark night blocked the impact of the alien beast silver mink penetrating Sun Quan's body and continuing to attack Yushan, so that Yushan was safe and sound.

That will control the mountain is still weak, just Kaiyuan into the Yuan, a heavy Yuan martial arts realm cultivation.

Seeing the deputy sect master and the two elders using their swords to defend, the ten young and young disciples were already vigilant.

The five female disciples were protected in the middle, and they led the donkeys, three donkeys on the left and two donkeys on the right, forming a donkey body defense to avoid being attacked by flying swords.

The five young disciples were small men, walking on the outside of the donkey, none of them had weapons in their hands, and Elder Liang Feng commanded them to hold back baskets in case of emergency, so that they could resist the flying sword hidden weapon.

Of course, Liang Feng and Elder Liang Luo would never let the flying sword get close to them, unless it was really beyond their strength.

Kui is right in front of the donkey team, and in case of an emergency, he can quickly burrow under the donkey's belly.

Five miles away.

This distance from the Divine Consciousness of the Intermediate Soul Martial Realm is not yet covered, and the distance of the Divine Consciousness of the Intermediate Soul Martial Realm is four miles at most, and the distance of the Divine Consciousness transmission is three miles.

Only when the cultivation has reached the high-level soul martial realm can the divine sense probe five miles away.

It was precisely because no enemy had been found within three or four miles that Liang Feng, Liang Luo, Liang Rou, and Yushan realized the greater danger.

Unless there is a mistake in intuition, the enemy must be a high-level soul martial realm.

However, as a cultivator, not to mention a person who is still a cultivator in the Soul Martial Realm, his intuition is far sharper than that of ordinary people, and he is particularly sensitive to dangerous aura, how can he be mistaken?

The faces of the two elders became solemn.

Liang Rou quickly counted in his mind who would deal with his own group of people who knew about the high-level soul martial realm cultivators.

Mr. Guanyun and several elders of the nursing home have been wiped out, and even if they are alive, they will not be able to deal with themselves as the juniors who continue the Yunmeng Martial Academy.

Chief Master Hu Tu doesn't have to think about it at all, Cao Baicao, the chief master of pills, is Hu Yao's uncle, and it is impossible for him to come to deal with Yushan, and he is now under house arrest by his aunt and empress.

As for the aunt and empress, don't even think about it, the third lady is here.

Then unless it is Yu Jingshi, the chief business engineer of Jingshiju.

However, his vein has already gone north to the Central Plains, and it seems that there is no such possibility, not to mention Yu Jingshi's quasi-son-in-law, the young lord Sun Quan, who has a good relationship with Yushan before, isn't it, there is no reason to do this.

The biggest possibility left is the Bright Moon Deacon of the Bronze Society.

Although Deacon Mingyue herself is only a mid-level soul martial realm cultivator, there is an unknown old woman hidden by her side, and that old woman is a high-level soul martial realm cultivator.

And there is also a motive.

After all, after the establishment of the Yunmeng Sect, it swallowed up the industries in the Yunmeng County City under the Bronze Society, and incorporated many miscellaneous students with the identity of the Bronze Society.

It's just that what I can't figure out is that Mingyue is really willing to leave Hu Tu's side and secretly return to Yunmeng County to do this?

If this was the case, why did she rush to the injured Hu Tu before Qiu Lan in the first place?

It shouldn't be her.

Liang Rou shook her head silently, vetoing her own inference.

Then only the county king's mansion remains.

There is definitely no shortage of middle-level soul martial realm masters in the Junwang Mansion, but when it comes to high-level soul martial realm, it can only be pushed forward by twenty years, speaking of that Lan clan ancestor.

However, that Lan Clan Ancestor has disappeared for twenty years, so it won't be so coincidental to appear here.

Liang Rou naturally wouldn't think so.

But his heart is still locked in the Lan clan of the county king's mansion.

Even if the Lan clan does not have a high-level soul martial realm in its own house now, with the financial resources and status of the county king's mansion, as long as it is willing to pay a big price, it is not impossible to invite a high-level soul martial realm master to attack the mountain.

After all, Lan Kai, the prince of the county king's mansion, gritted his teeth with hatred for Yushan.

Thinking of this, Liang Rou looked ahead, exerted the blessing of Yuan Li and shouted, "Why don't the seniors of the County King's Mansion come out and see it?"

Boy!

Even the blind guess hit.

The person hiding in the ravine five miles away, his face changed slightly, and for a while he had to admire the innocent but calculating girl of the acquired Kaiyuan, even if it was only the acquired Kaiyuan, she could also be called a genius.

At the age of eighteen, she was now already a low-level soul martial realm.

Liang Rou, a peer, caught up with the cultivation realm of Lord Lanruo, which was really shocking.

There was only one person in the ravine.

The crane was tall and thin, wrapped in a black robe, and wore a mask, revealing only a pair of cloudy eyes. He didn't carry a sword, but he wore a pair of jet-black gloves.

Is it a pure martial artist, or is it a deliberate attempt not to use a sword in order to avoid people's eyes and conceal his identity?

The black-robed man walked out.

He looked at the mountain and laughed, "Hand over the secret technique of gathering spiritual energy, you will not die, and you can also save the lives of others." ”

The voice is eerie and creepy to listen to.

But the voice was very unfamiliar, and Liang Rou tried her best to compare and make sure that she had never heard this person's voice.

But since they are strangers, why does the other party wear a mask and dare not show their true faces?

Obviously this doesn't make sense.

Since the other party not only knows Yushan, but also knows that Yushan has a secret technique for gathering spiritual energy, and can intercept it here in advance, it must be someone who is familiar with the Yunmeng Sect or has an internal response in the Yunmeng Sect.

And even if you know the general route of your group, the specific route of your group is arbitrary, so you may not be able to intercept it here in advance.

It seems that when his group was not paying attention, he had already been targeted and guided the route.

Liang Rou's mind couldn't help but think of the guide in Firecracker Town who couldn't remember his face.

Undoubtedly, the other party came prepared and ate his own group.

However, Liang Rou couldn't be sure whether the black-robed man was from the Junwang Mansion, and the other party didn't show a trace of horse's feet after he appeared, but it felt less and less like he was from the Junwang Mansion, otherwise there would be some traces of wanting to cover up.

Although facing a high-level soul martial realm strong enemy, Yushan had no fear on his face.

Yushan also pondered whether the enemy would be someone he knew, but there was no clue.

Yushan walked forward seven or eight steps alone, looked at the black-robed man and replied: "If Your Excellency really wants it, then it is not impossible to give it to you, but how can I trust Your Excellency, after you get it, you will not kill people?"

"With your strength, you are not qualified to bargain with me. The black-robed man said coldly.

Yushan looked at the other party without moving and said, "Since there is no difference between giving and not giving, why should I hand it over to you?"

The black-robed man stared at the mountain, using the Yuan Force to form a coercion, and suppressing people with power.

There is no wind and waves in front of the mountain, and the clothes and belts are fluttering. However, Yushan's face did not change, and he took two steps forward.

"Do you think you can escape from my palm today?" said the black-robed man with increased threat.

An invisible pressure rushed to his face, making his body as if he had been hit by a giant object, and the Yuan Force of the Mountain came out of his body to form the Yuan Armor, and resolutely replied: "Then do you think I will write down the secret technique on paper and carry it with me? Do you think I can make a Soul Martial Realm not die by itself?"

As soon as this statement came out.

Liang Rou rushed to Yushan's side desperately, grabbed the belt around Yushan's waist with both hands, and the tenderness transmitted by both hands begged Yushan not to be impulsive.

Yushan turned back and smiled at her, telling her not to be too nervous.

The black-robed man swept his gaze towards those young and young disciples, and threatened fiercely: "If you die, they will be better off than dead." ”

Swept away by that gaze, the young disciples trembled.

The young disciples glared angrily, their faces flushed, but they were also too frightened to make the slightest sound.

They have never been so in the face of death as they are today, with an irrepressible fear in their hearts.

Yushan was silent for a moment.

Later, he said, "You let them all go, and I'll stay here, and as long as I'm sure they're in a position where they can leave safely, you'll be able to get the secret magic as you wish." ”

"No! I'm not going to leave you. Liang Rou cried out.

Liang Feng and Elder Liang Luo spoke out eagerly at the same time: "Sect Master, absolutely not!"

Then Elder Liang Feng said decisively: "It's a big deal, I'll fight with him! Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master, you go quickly!"

Elder Liang Luo followed closely and said, "With the strength of me and Elder Liang Feng, we will not be subdued by him with one move. ”

Yushan's heart warmed when he heard this, he didn't expect that Liang Feng and Elder Liang Luo could be so righteous at the critical moment.

However, Yu Shan's face was even more resolute, and he looked back at Liang Feng and Liang Luo, signaling that they only needed to withdraw as soon as possible with their disciples, and there was no need to worry about his safety.

Taking advantage of Yushan's turn, Kui Yan straightened up and looked at Yushan, and said, "Brother, I will never leave, I will die together." ”

Yushan shook his head and said, "It's a brother, just be obedient and leave quickly." ”

After speaking, Yushan pulled Liang Rou away, pushed her to Kui Rou's side, and glanced at Kui Rou, asking Kui Rou to pull Liang Rou and walk quickly.

Then Yushan looked at the black-robed man and said, "If Your Excellency can trust me, then get out of the way, you move to the southwest, and my people will go around the front road from the northeast." ”

The black-robed man was constantly coercive, and his eyes were greedily staring at the Yuan Jia that appeared on Yushan's body.

It seems that this young sect master is far more than just a secret method for gathering aura, and that set of defense techniques for transforming the armor of Yuan Force is also unheard of and unseen.

I don't know that those mountains in the Central Plains have attained high cultivation, and I don't know that there are such defensive techniques in the world.

As long as the secret method of gathering spiritual energy and the technique of transforming the armor of Yuan Force are in hand, with these two alone, it is not difficult to flourish in the Central Plains.

Maybe there are other secrets on that young sect master.

"Hahaha!" Thinking of this, the black-robed man couldn't help laughing.

He decisively withdrew the coercion, moved his body to the west, and stared at Yushan Dao: "Okay, then follow your method, the old man doesn't dare to play any tricks." ”

"Old man?" Yushan's heart moved, and he felt a sense of déjà vu, but he was still not sure of anything for the time being.

Liang Rou, who was tearful and helpless, was also touched by the word "old man", but she couldn't be sure of anything.

Yu Shan waved his hand to the east, did not look back, and said decisively in the tone of the following order: "Elder Liang Feng and Liang Luo listened to the order and quickly led the others to withdraw. ”

"Zong..."Liang Feng and Liang Luo opened their mouths anxiously.

Yushan immediately interrupted: "The order of the sect master, don't obey it quickly." ”

"Yes. subordinates complied. ”

Liang Feng and Liang Luo hugged their fists and bowed, they were really helpless in their hearts, and they had to hope for the sect master's own magic, and think in the direction that maybe the young sect master himself had a way to get out.

At the same time, Liang Rou received a message from Yushan: "Rou'er is obedient, I understand everything in your heart, believe me, don't worry, I'll be fine, let's go! ”

"Rou'er..."

Liang Rou's tears rained down, and she was both happy - Yushan actually opened his mouth to call himself Rou'er for the first time, but he was heartbroken, and he couldn't be sure in his heart at all, whether Yushan said that he would be okay was true or not.

Kui Yan wanted to say something, but the voice of Yushan exploded in his ears: "If you return to your mother-in-law, then don't recognize me as a brother." ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Kui Yu screamed with tears, pulled Liang Rou to turn around and take a step, and never looked back, her eyes were hazy with tears.

All the young and young disciples bowed and said in unison, "Sect Master take care!"

The voices of the boys trembled, and the voices of the girls were mixed with crying, but they were too weak to resist the enemy or the order.

After Kui Yan and the others passed the hiding place of the black-robed man before, they walked further ahead.

The black-robed man approached the mountain from the southwest step by step.

Yushan just looked at him, his body did not move, and he did not have any intention of taking advantage of the opportunity to escape.

When the people in front of him reached a place that was invisible to the naked eye and could not be covered by divine sense, Liang Rou suddenly said in a loud voice: "Please ask Elder Liang Feng to rush to the sect with the sword and notify Cedar and Xueman to come to the rescue of Yushan." ”

Liang Feng looked at Liang Luo and said, "Let's go Elder Liang Luo, we are two cultivators in the realm, and the speed of her sword is not slower than mine." ”

Liang Luo glanced back at Liang Feng and said, "The deputy sect master ordered you to go, why do you want to refuse?"

Liang Feng replied implicitly: "After I stay, I hope to see you again and say something that I wanted to say a long time ago." ”

Liang Luo simply handed the sword out in the air, her figure flashed and her feet stepped on the sword, the spirit sword accelerated and flew forward, she turned back to Liang Feng and said, "What do you have to say after returning to the sect." ”

This place is at least dozens of miles away from the eastern suburbs of Yunmeng County, and it is a hundred miles away from each other.

The black-robed man was not worried about Liang Rou and them going to move the rescuers, because it was impossible for Yushan to wait for the rescuers to arrive.

Ten or so steps away, the black-robed man spoke, "It's time for you to cash in." ”

Yushan smiled and replied, "I have always stayed where I am. ”

The black-robed man squinted his eyes and said, "Then hurry up and hand over the secret technique of gathering aura, as well as the Yuan Force armor defense technique, don't imagine hiding it, lest the consequences be very serious." ”

Yushan brushed his sleeves and said: "If you want to get your wish, come and get it." ”

"Hahaha!" the black robe laughed angrily and said, "You seem to want to struggle?"

Yushan Hui smiled and said: "I have been living in struggle before, and I am naturally used to struggling and struggling, what if?"

"Dream!" The black-robed man said sharply: "Fantasizing about using a low-level soul martial realm against a high-level soul martial realm, I see that you are itchy to the bone." ”

As he spoke, the black-robed man's body swelled with Yuan Force, instantly condensing a Yuan Force Giant Tiger.

The giant tiger broke away from him, stretched high and stretched into a three-zhang body, opened its bloody mouth, and roared at the mountain, eyeing the tiger, and could rush at any time.

The operation of the Yushan Yuan Array accelerated, and the Yuan Force was surging out of the body, and it was attached to the surface of the body, forming a three-inch-thick Yuan Force armor to protect the body.

The distance between the legs of Yushan was slightly widened, and he squatted slightly and leaned forward, his hands clenched into fists, his intentions were connected, his fists were strong, and he was ready to fight to the death.

"Whew-" The black-robed man waved his hand, and the giant tiger pounced on the mountain.

Yushan quickly punched out, and the fist peak was surging, suppressing the giant tiger in front of him.

However, with a bang, the giant tiger destroyed the ancient and smashed the fist peak, and the speed and power did not decrease at all, and it rushed straight to the mountain.

Yushan suddenly felt the storm cover him, and his seven-foot body looked very small in front of the giant tiger, and he was swayed and slid backwards.

The next moment, the front paws of the giant tiger approached, and smashed down with overwhelming power, and Yushan raised his fists to resist with all his might, boom!

There was a bang, the ground shook, the legs of the mountain sank to the knees, only three-quarters of the whole person was outside, a big crater burst on the ground, and the air waves were rolling and the dust was flying.

Poof-Yushan's throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, only to feel that the bones all over his body were about to shatter, and his muscles were trembling.
