Many flying boats flew out of Jackdaw Mountain and headed for the dense lake not far away.
Lingyu stood on one of the flying boats, silently watching the spectacular scene of more than a dozen flying boats connecting front and back.
Fang He stood beside her, trying to suppress his excitement, and finally couldn't help but grab her sleeve: "Sister Cheng, there are so many flying boats, how many people do you have to go!" ”
Lingyu estimated: "There should be a few thousand people." ”
"With so many people, can we hunt demon beasts?" Fang He became worried again.
Da Mengze's resources are almost all mastered, and there is little experience in casual cultivation, Fang He has always worked for others before, and he has not had many adventures.
"Peace of mind, we won't suffer if we don't hunt ......"
On the Peach Blossom Peak, the ancestor of the Xu family had a gloomy face and listened to Xu Xiangyong tell him about it.
"Almost all of the casual cultivators who came here participated, and only a dozen or so did not participate. But there are many of the children of this sect who have not been ......."
Flipping through the list presented by Xu Xiangyong, the ancestor of the Xu family did not speak for a long time.
The more he didn't speak, the more frightened Xu Xiangyong became. Looking at the ancestor's face, he knew that he was angry. To be honest, he was also very angry when he saw the absentee list.
"Heirloom." The ancestor of the Xu family said coldly.
Xu Xiangyong hurriedly bowed: "Yes." ”
"From now on, the disciples of this sect will cut the monthly routine by half."
"Huh?"
The ancestor of the Xu family's face sank: "Ah, what? ”
Xu Xiangyong hurriedly said: "Ancestor, isn't this okay?" Cutting the monthly case by half, wouldn't the cultivation speed be greatly slowed down? ”
The ancestor of the Xu family snorted coldly: "They have high spirits and don't look down on the rewards of the hunting conference, which means that this sect treats them too favorably!" Case. Then let them taste what it is like to not have enough spirit stones! ”
"Ancestor ......"
didn't wait for Xu Yong to say anything. The ancestor of the Xu family waved his hand: "There is no need to say much about this matter. You've been in charge of the family for so many years. Don't you understand what the biggest hidden danger of our family is? Driving away scattered cultivation is nothing, as long as we are strong enough, these scattered cultivators will not be able to turn over the storm! But if the children of this sect lose their enterprising spirit, then no one can stop the trend of defeat. ”
Xu Xiangyong was panicked by what he said: "My grandson is short-sighted." ”
The ancestor of the Xu family sighed and threw him a small round mirror that flashed with a faint blue light: "You keep this matter in mind, now go and check first, whether there is anything abnormal in these people who stayed." ”
"Yes."
……
In just half a day, Mihu arrived.
Many Qi refining cultivators got off the flying boat. Under the orders of the elders of their respective families, they will receive the meeting token.
The rules of this hunting convention are simple. First, the winner is determined by the number of prey. Second, no murder to death. Finally, those who do not come back at the specified time will not be counted in the ranking.
Lingyu was a little uneasy when she heard this, and quietly asked Fang He: "What about hurting people?" Will it be punished? ”
Fang He wasn't sure, and Jiang Yuanbai, who was walking with them, said, "As long as people don't die, there will be no punishment." ”
Lingyu was silent. Da Mengze's atmosphere is much stronger than Ling Cang's, which is instigating each other to compete for prey.
Just thinking about it. Jiang Yuanbai asked in a low voice: "Two Taoist friends, how many people are easy to do." How about we get a ride? ”
Fang He couldn't ask for it, and looked at Lingyu: "Sister Cheng, look?" ”
"Jiang Daoyou is willing to let us take advantage, how can we refuse?" Lingyu replied with a smile.
As soon as she arrived at Mihu, she sensed that a powerful force seemed to be pressed down, and there must be a Yuanying monk in this place. She knew in her heart that her previous guess was correct, and the sudden hunting meeting was probably to find out the three Yuedan monks. In this case, she wished that there were as many people as possible with her, so that she could stand out from the crowd.
I don't know if the three Jiedan monks are really among these people, the three major families deduce so much, and they still have such a big formation, there must be their reasons.
Soon, many Qi refining disciples were divided into several batches and entered the Secret Lake.
The dense lake is huge, and the place where the qi refining demon beasts inhabit is separated and becomes the battlefield of this hunting conference.
Lingyu walked with Fang He, Jiang Yuanbai, Shi Yue, and Di Xiuping, and mixed in inconspicuously. The one-day hunting convention kicked off.
On a small island in Mihu Lake, a monk in Tsing Yi sat cross-legged on a high rock, facing the lake, with his eyes closed.
The lake around the island is covered with white pumice stones, which are tied with nets. This is one of the Yuan family's bead fields located in Mihu, and many Lingbei spirit beads are produced every year for the children of the family to cultivate.
"Uncle Seven." A gray-bearded monk walked to the edge of the high stone and bowed down.
The monk in Tsing Yi was no more than twenty years old, and he accepted his great gift calmly. After a long while, he opened his eyes and seemed to be talking to himself: "Not even among them?" ”
The old man hurriedly said: "There are too many people, it is difficult to distinguish. If the spy is really among them, with the power of the seventh uncle, he will definitely be able to find out. ”
The monk in Tsing Yi laughed: "Little Er, when did you learn to pat on the back?" ”
The old man said: "Xiao Er never slaps sycophants, he tells the truth." ”
The monk in Tsing Yi didn't take it seriously, shook his head, and said: "These people dare to lurk after being discovered, they must be masters of art and bold, and they must not be underestimated. ”
The old man was solemn: "What Uncle Seventh said is, if it weren't for that, how could the Xu and Ji families push this errand to us?" ”
There was a hint of disdain in his tone. The monk in Tsing Yi understood what the old man meant. The Yuan family now has two Yuan Infants, ranking first among the three major families in strength, and the monks of the Yuan family are full of superiority in both words and mentality. However, the head of the family repeatedly tolerated the Xu and Ji families, which made them feel very aggrieved.
If it was someone else, the monk in Tsing Yi didn't bother to pay attention. But this old man is very close to him, and he doesn't mind dialing one or two.
"Xiao Er, don't underestimate the heritage of the Xu and Ji families. In terms of the number of clansmen, they are much more than our Yuan family, and now is not the time to compete with them. ”
The old man was puzzled: "Seventh Uncle, the ancestors of the Xu and Ji families are all old, but there are few promising in the next generation." You're so young, what's so scary? What if there are many of them? If you don't have a baby, it's not at the mercy of others? ”
The monk in Tsing Yi shook his head: "The background is not only here. Their accumulation is far richer than ours, and if they really face life and death, they can concentrate those rich accumulations on a few descendants, and quickly cultivate a few excellent disciples, and it is unknown if they get married in one fell swoop. Like you said, I'm still young, what's there to wait? ”
"This ......," the old man did not know how to answer. He felt that the two elders of the Yuan family were too conservative, but what Uncle Seven said was not unreasonable.
On the surface of the lake, the breeze blows and the waves are calm. The monk in Tsing Yi said leisurely: "There is something that you may not know. ”
The old man looked up at the figure on the high stone with confusion.
"There's another reason why we want to find out those people." The monk in Tsing Yi said softly, "Frozen Crane Pond, those sneakers, I'm afraid they know the secret of Frozen Crane Pond. ”
The old man was stunned, and the more he listened, the more confused he became: "Seventh uncle, is there any secret in Frozen Crane Pond?" "Ever since he knew it, Frozen Crane Pond has been a barren land frozen for many years, and there is nothing strange about it except for the occasional disappearance. As for the disappearance, he felt that he had either gotten lost in the Chaotic Stone Forest or had fallen into the Frozen Crane Pond. In the broken place of the Stone Forest, he didn't dare to say that he could get out. And Frozen Crane Pond, that kind of cold is definitely not something that Qi refining cultivators can bear, if they fall, eighty percent will immediately freeze and faint.
The monk in Tsing Yi smiled slightly: "This secret, probably the Xu and Ji families have also forgotten, but our Yuan family has not forgotten it." Frozen Crane Pond used to be Crossing Crane Pond, a deep pool without the slightest aura, suddenly frozen, there is no reason, who believes? We were skeptical, but we couldn't find any evidence. Now, suddenly a group of people came to our Jackdaw Mountain, looking for nothing else, just looking for Frozen Crane Pond, which is also too coincidental. ”
He didn't say the secret, and the old man didn't dare to ask. He is just building a foundation and cultivating, although Uncle Seventh is his own generation, some secrets cannot be said.
"It's been more than a thousand years, if this secret falls into our hands, the Yuan family can become the true master of Jackdaw Mountain."
The monk in Tsing Yi seemed to be talking to himself, and he didn't care whether the old man could understand it or not.
"Go and pass the order, all the clan's knots are in place, and you can't let go of a suspicious object."
The old man understood this order, and he hurriedly bowed: "Yes." ”
The old man went to give the order, and the monk in Tsing Yi closed his eyes and continued to be silent. He looked as if he was pranayama cultivation, but in fact, the powerful divine consciousness of the Yuanying Cultivator had spread out and shrouded in the scope of the conference.
With him, a Yuanying monk, and many Jiedan monks staring, will he not be able to find anyone? He didn't believe it.
However, even if they found it, the Xu and Ji families would not know. They can't know about that secret.
In fact, they didn't take that secret matter seriously. When the crane pond became a frozen crane pond, the three major families also spent energy searching, but found nothing. So everyone thought that they had guessed wrong. Frozen Crane Lake is so big, if the thing is really there, how can there be no harvest? The reason why the water freezes in the pool may be a legacy effect.
However, for more than 1,000 years, the ice in Frozen Crane Lake has never melted.
Since the Yuan family successfully married him, he was ambitious, but he just wanted to kill with one blow, so he didn't move the Xu and Ji families.
Not long ago, he learned that someone had infiltrated Jackdaw Mountain to search for Frozen Crane Pond, and he and the head of the family immediately remembered this past.
If that thing was really still in the Frozen Crane Pond and was found by them, the Yuan family would have the confidence to suppress the Xu and Ji families.
Many people thought that the reason why the Xu and Ji families fought duel back then was to divide the territory. In fact, they were all wrong, what they really grabbed was a secret treasure.
Thinking about this, the monk in Tsing Yi frowned slightly. Even if those few monks knew about this from the pile of old papers, how did they know the truth? It's strange that all of them are monks who come to the Secret Chamber, and they seem to know what the secret room is...... Perhaps only by finding them can we know the truth. (To be continued......)
