Chapter 68: Heading North
Mingyu Zhenren said coldly: "He used the method of illuminating the shadow to escape the Yuan Shen, presumably he already knew the news that we were coming, and other book friends read it normally:." However, this arrow also at least went to thirty percent of his essence," he looked at the sky from afar, and said, "The secret technique of the Demon Palace, using nine primordial life lamps to protect the dharma, so that the Jiedan monk can detach the spirit from the body, extinguishing a lamp, then the essence will lose one percent, he was injured this time, and there is no hope of advancing to the rank of Yuanying for at least five hundred years!" ”
Senior Sister Su said: "But after all, he took away the primordial spirit of the Star Sea Demon Lord, I don't know what the intentions will be?" ”
Mingyu Zhenren said lightly: "It's nothing more than soldiers coming to block, and water coming to Tutun!" He turned to look at the female monk who was still suppressing Taihua Mountain, and said, "After you junior disciples are done, return to the Shangqing Palace quickly." The rest of the matter here will be handled by Ming Ge to find out if there are any remnants of the Demon Palace. Drive and go back to the palace! ”
With a flick of his long sleeves, he boarded the car, and then the sound of the phoenix was endless, and the eight spirit beasts slowly dragged the giant wheel, and in the singing of the heavens, the car drove away slowly.
Gu Yan watched Fan Sixian shatter his whole body, and then she was a little surprised, no wonder as soon as she saw Fan Sixian, she felt that this person's behavior was a bit contrived, and at that time she thought it was the style of the monk Jiedan, but now it is clear that he is pretending to be unfathomable in order to lure people away, so as to reduce the danger of being discovered. It's just that I don't know where the real Fan Sixian went, whether he took refuge in the seat of the Demon Lord of Haixin Palace, or whether he has been eradicated by that Demon Lord, this may be an incomprehensible mystery.
Yue Mingge looked at Mingyu's real person's distant figure, looked at the verdant Taihua Mountain below, and sighed: "The Fan family is now removed!" ”
It didn't take long for the news that the Fan family colluded with the demon cultivators of the Demon Palace to subvert the Shangqing Palace, and it spread all over Luodi, and a Jiedan monk was silently stolen and replaced, which was even more surprising. In this case, it is no longer strange that the elite of the Shangqing Palace did their best to eradicate the dissidents of the Fan family by thunderous means and nip the situation in the bud.
At that time, all kinds of rumors spread all over Luodi and overseas, and the monks from the south to the north spread all kinds of gossip in an endless stream, and countless people claimed to have seen the demeanor of several masters of the Shangqing Palace on the spot. It can be expected that for at least half a year, this incident will continue to be the mouth of many monks who come and go to talk about it.
It's just that these have nothing to do with Gu Yan, after half a month has passed in the battle of Taihua Mountain, her figure has appeared in the northernmost part of Luodi, seven thousand miles north along Xuanshui, there is a city called Guanque. This is the residence of the Lin clan, another big family in Luodi.
The Lin clan has a longer history in Luodi than the Fan clan, and I heard that their ancestors were disciples of the patriarch of the Shangqing Palace, and later founded the family from the self-established portal and continued it all the time. Defend in the northernmost part of Luodi. Nine hundred miles further north, there is the Tiger Hill Ridge, and beyond the Tiger Hill Ridge, there is a wild ridge and ice field that is uninhabited. There are no traces there, the terrain is extremely harsh, only demon beasts can infest, there are often monks who will go north along the Xuanshui, cross the Tiger Hill, and then go to the polar ice field to hunt demon beasts, use materials such as demon pills and animal skins and bones to refine weapons, or exchange for spirit stones.
Of course, Gu Yan didn't come here to do this, she came here just because the person she was looking for was in Guanque City. Before he died, Wufang sent a wisp of divine consciousness into her brain, which was also his Zuihou's request. When she stood under the city wall and looked at the city bathed in the morning light, her mood involuntarily became heroic.
There were not many people coming and going at the gates of the city, and a few monks were also in a hurry, and before she came here, she had heard other monks say that in Luodi, the least distance between mortals and monks was Guanque City. Here, the barriers between monks and mortals are not as clear as in other places, they live in the same area, and some mortals serve as servants for monks.
Standing at the gate of the city were four Qi Refining Cultivators with very low cultivation, they were wearing armor and dressed like mortal soldiers. Meticulously checked the identities of the monks entering and leaving the city. Yue Mingge, who was beside him, said in a low voice: "Guanque City has the strictest identity check for monks, and mortals can enter the city without any formalities, but in addition to reporting their names and origins, monks must also go to the city lord's mansion to report after entering the city, and they can't walk around in the city at will, and some forbidden places are not allowed to pass." ”
Gu Yan glanced back at him, since the Taihua Mountain incident was over, she was going to say goodbye to Yue Mingge, and the other book friends looked at it normally. However, he said that he and Wufang were friends who had fought together, and he naturally had a part of the instructions before he died, so he left aside the aftermath in Taihua Mountain, and insisted on following.
Gu Yan has always been a loner, and he didn't want to go with him, but Yue Mingge was a little stubborn, and he couldn't get rid of it, so he had to let it go. Along the way, she has been indifferent, and she didn't give him any good looks, Yue Mingge didn't care, just by Gu Yan's side, she told him some stories about Luodi.
As a disciple of the Shangqing Palace, his knowledge is naturally first-class, and Gu Yan has also learned a lot of things. At this time, she saw a line at the gate of the city, and about a dozen monks were checking their identities under the interrogation of the guards in turn, so she walked to the end of the line, ready to line up honestly.
At this time, Yue Mingge did not come with her, but walked to the city gate on his own. Gu Yan glanced at him in surprise, and saw that he took out a crystal jade plate from his bag, and shook it at the guards guarding the city gate, and the four guards bowed down to him very respectfully, and then dodged a path.
Yue Mingge beckoned to Gu Yan at the city gate, Gu Yan looked at the monks who were queuing up on the side a little strangely, and walked over, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Yue Mingge smiled: "It's still useful to walk with me, right?" Gu Yan asked, "What did you take out?" ”
Yue Mingge said with some pride: "That's the purple jade talisman that only the head disciples of the Shangqing Palace are qualified to use!" "Shangqing Palace is the leader of the Luodi Cultivation Realm, and all the families are the only ones who look to him, and the orders of the head disciples, when they are taken out, may not be as good as the head of the big family. It is only natural that the guards guarding the city gate will be condescending to him.
Gu Yan smiled and walked into the city gate. This city is very wide, dozens of times larger than the small town of the Gu family when she was in Qingyun Mountain. The castle is a tight square structure, divided into square areas. Yue Mingge explained to her as he walked: "Guanque City is a place with an extremely strict hierarchy, according to the difference of its own bloodline, it is divided into strictly separated areas, the person we are looking for lives in Nancheng, it can be regarded as a gathering area for civilians. ”
