Everyone agreed with Gu Yan's opinion, and also admired her courage to make a decision at this time, and the initiative was unconsciously caught by her, Gu Yan said: "Now there is still a sect that has not been found, we need to find them as soon as possible, since the master of the Ji Sect has been found here, I think they will not be far from here, we are here as the center, and then search outside in a fan shape layer by layer, divided into three directions, three of the four of us each lead a team, and the other stays here, guarding the wounded, and sending a signal if found." What do you think? ”

The people around here have no opinion, such as Tan Zicheng is also impressed by Gu Yan, cultivation first, with her decisiveness and calmness, she is already worthy of the position of the head of a faction. Such a talent, no matter where it goes, will be fought for by various families, he can't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart, I heard that she was also born in a casual cultivation, why can't the Tan family recruit such a talent? Of course, if he knew that the Wei family, which was in power in the southeast, had also recruited Gu Yan, but was ignored by her, he would probably be able to balance his heart.

After a few people have finished their discussion, they will summon the remaining monks and say this decision, the entire Dongyang County is in charge of the three shili bull's ears, and if they agree, naturally no one dares to disobey, although Hu Zhiyuan muttered a few words secretly, but he did not dare to question their decision.

So Gu Yan guarded here, and the remaining Nan Xianzi, Han Wanru, and Tan Zicheng each led a team, and the ** cloud boat flew out in three teams, and searched half of the body in a fan-shaped shape.

Gu Yan sat here, the three injured were all taken care of by him, and Cumulus Cloud Peak and Crane Shadow Pond also sent a disciple to stay here, and Mo Yan stood beside her obediently. Lin Zitong and Zhu Ying pressed their swords on both sides, looking around vigilantly, for fear that some enemies would rush out again.

Gu Yan smiled: "Don't be so nervous, even if there is really an enemy." He now only dares to peep at us in the dark, and will not come out openly in broad daylight, who is a trickster. You can only do it in the shadows! After seeing Ji Quan's injury, she actually had a conjecture in her heart, but she felt that there were many doubts that needed to be confirmed one by one. So I didn't take it out. But I was already on guard in my heart.

At this time, Zhu Ying said: "Uncle Shi, look! Gu Yan looked up, and there was a fire rising into the sky in the southeast, which was the signal they had agreed on in advance, Gu Yan got up and said, "I guess there is something found over there, let's go over and take a look!" ”

She urged Jinyun Disc and hurried over, and found that it was the Southern Fairy who led the way. At this time, they looked coldly at the three corpses on the mountain rock below. This time, they were all dead, similar to the injuries suffered by Ji Quan, and they all had scars on their necks. The whole body is cold, but they are not like Ji Quan. was able to hold his breath before dying, and the three people who died were all disciples of Zhuji. Gu Yan saw something strange, "Who is leading the team?" ”

Yang Zhen said: "This is a disciple of the Huaying faction, and the leader is an elder of the faction, when we found here, the three disciples were already exhausted, but the elder was nowhere to be found, and there seemed to be no traces of a fight here." ”

Gu Yan groaned, "So, that elder was also attacked suddenly?" It's just that he is not like the master of Jimen, but he was captured and taken away, but there is no trace of this place......"

At this time, Fairy Nan suddenly said: "Elder Yun's cultivation is quite high, similar to me, he shouldn't die easily, maybe he was caught off guard, and he was injured and captured." ”

After listening to her words, Gu Yan knew that Cumulus Peak and the Huaying faction should have a good relationship, and she still remembered that Elder Yun was also quite a graceful woman, and it seemed that she had a good relationship with the Southern Fairy. She frowned suddenly, obviously there was a question in it, why were they all attacked by Cumulus Peak, or the sect that had a deep intersection with Cumulus Peak?

At this time, the other two groups of people saw the signal, and they also rushed over, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw the corpses of the three people lying here, Tan Zicheng was also familiar with the Huaying faction, he went down to see the corpses of these three disciples, and couldn't help but burst into a rage, and shouted angrily: "What's going on?" ”

Han Wanru was much calmer than him, and the Han family was not deeply involved with the Huaying faction, so she frowned at this time and said, "The injury is the same as before?" ”

Gu Yan came one step earlier, and had already seen the injuries of these three disciples, which were similar to the two disciples he met last night, but today's two disciples of Ji Quan were similar to such injuries, and they were both misjudged to be injured by demon beasts.

At this time, the sky was past noon, the sun was in the middle of the sky, the strong sunlight shone down, and countless mist rose on the ground, and the clouds were steaming, as if they were in a brilliant sea of clouds, which was really a beautiful scene in the world, but in front of three wounded, five corpses, and two missing names, no one could feel comfortable.

At this time, all the factions that came to the Lancang Valley have gathered, and the two missing sects, as expected, are either missing and nameless, or life and death are unknown, according to the practice of starting to discuss, from now until the end of this trial, everyone can no longer be separated, and they must act together until the ban is opened outside and they are released again. As for the ranking of this trial, it is also recognized that it will be ranked according to the previous ranking, and under the suppression of the three major shili, Gu Yan has no opinion, and no one else will oppose it. For those few sects whose strength was inexplicably damaged, it was a compensation.

When the situation is like this, Gu Yan naturally won't mention the matter of going to Panyunji again, she said in a deep voice: "There are still seven days before the ban is opened, and we will all advance and retreat together in these seven days, presumably everyone will not be lonely, it is a big deal to be a retreat, as for the demon beasts here, it is better not to provoke it easily, I don't know what danger there will be." We'll be able to stay for the next seven days in peace. ”

Led by Nan Xianzi and Han Tan, they also agreed with her opinion, and others could not raise objections, so they found the most peaceful place to camp in the Lancang Valley, gathered the remaining ** cloud boats together, and then several monks worked together to clean up a piece of mountain rock below as a habitat. Let the cloud boats be surrounded by the periphery, and change shifts every six hours to ensure that there are people on duty at all times.

These people are accustomed to practicing on weekdays, and some of them can easily pass a few days after they have been in retreat for more than ten years. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and there was nothing unusual in those three days, even though the moonlight at night was as bright as water. But there was no such ferocious demon beast that Zaijian had appeared that day.

In the past few days, Gu Yan has nothing to do except for going to be on duty. Then he drew out the figure of the demon beast he saw that day. Then he searched in turn in the books he carried, but perhaps what he saw that day was not complete, although he found some ancient beasts that were similar in appearance, but he was not sure which one it was.

In the past few days, she also took the opportunity to point out what Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong had learned, and they had been concentrating on cultivation under Gu Yan's teaching for the past year, and they were no longer blindly improving. Instead, it is to stabilize its own foundation, and if it makes a breakthrough now, it also feels like it will come naturally. After this trial is over, Gu Yan can start preparing for them to refine weapons. It's not just these two. The other disciples of the Bixia Sect also have to strive to be able to use a magic weapon in their hands, speaking of which, even in a prosperous place like Cangwu, which cultivates immortals, there is no guarantee that every foundation building disciple in the sect will use a magic weapon. After the success of foundation building, many people are still using the spiritual weapons used in the previous qi refining period, and when the opportunity comes, they can find the magic weapons they can use at hand, Gu Yan is ready to go back to open the furnace this time, and refine more than a dozen pieces first, at least so that the disciples who have successfully built the foundation this time can get one first, as for Gan Biwu and those elders, Gu Yan's current level is not yet able to refine such a powerful magic weapon for people to use.

Regarding his refining techniques, Gu Yan is still quite self-aware. Back then, with the purple flame crystal soul and the nine-handled lotus knife, such a powerful material, the nine-leaf lotus platform that was refined was easily destroyed when it returned to the ruins, compared to the alchemy and formation science, Gu Yan's alchemy technique can only be said to be mediocre. Of course, with her "mediocre" approach, it was more than enough to be an ordinary refiner. Even in Cangwu, a person like her, who has three unique skills in alchemy, refining and formation, is also the object of competition among the various major sects.

This is already the night of the fourth day, and in three more days, the ban outside will be opened, and in these few days, the three major shili have also transmitted some information to the outside world through their own methods, but under the shroud of the ban, the method of transmitting information is extremely simple, and can only roughly describe what happened, but the details of the situation are not clear, and the outside is not in a hurry to open the ban when they know that they have controlled the situation. The ban that shrouded the Lancang Valley was not easy to open once, and if it was opened in advance, it would cost a lot of resources, and the heads of the various factions and the county guards decided to wait until the seven days were full before opening it.

Gu Yan raised her head and looked at the moonlight like water, it was her turn to be on duty this night, she sat on the Jinyun disk in the sky, and slowly looked down with her eyes. There have been no problems in the past three days, but the hidden worries in her heart have not diminished, is it really as she thought, that person has died down?

Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong stood behind her, looking left and right with four eyes, vigilantly investigating the surrounding movements, at this time, a cloud suddenly floated in the sky, covering most of the moonlight that was as bright as water, and the heavy power of Taiyin suddenly weakened to less than three percent of the previous one.

Gu Yan's eyebrows raised, according to her previous estimate, there will be a rare phenomenon of "Tianxuan swallowing the moon" today, and the power of Taiyin will be reduced to the weakest, so, will anyone take this opportunity to launch it? Therefore, after taking her seat, she deliberately changed shifts with Nan Xianzi, and it was her turn to be on duty this night, but it was very calm below, and there was nothing abnormal.

Mo Yan was ordered by her to hide in the tent and not to come out, if what she expected was true, then the enemy may not have time to take care of this little guy, for insurance, Gu Yan also deliberately asked Xiao Jiang to be her companion to ensure her safety.

Zhu Ying also felt that the atmosphere was a little unusual, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Shi, will something happen tonight?" ”

Gu Yan showed a faint smile, "Maybe, wait!" Lin Zitong suddenly lightly touched Gu Yan's elbow, "Look! ”

In the rocks below, there are more than ten tents set up scattered around, all of which are arranged by monks, which are naturally not as simple as ordinary people, and there are also quite gorgeous, but one piece in the east and one in the west, not a system. The periphery is surrounded by more than a dozen cloud boats, and everyone has spent the past three days meditating and practicing here. At this moment, in a tent, a figure crept out. He was already at the edge of the tent, and he was cautiously heading outside. In a blink of an eye, he passed through the cloud boat and walked to the periphery.

On his body, a faint layer of brilliance shrouded him, and the moonlight was projected down. When it comes to him, he will be strangely avoided, and only a silhouette-like shadow of him can be seen. Zhu Ying covered her mouth with her hands in surprise, and turned her head to find that Gu Yan's hand was holding a vermilion mirror. Although the moonlight does not shine on him. But the brilliance emitted by the Zhu Yan mirror can clearly reflect the outline of his whole body. He ...... Is there an invisibility technique? ”

Gu Yan said lightly: "He should be wearing something that can be invisible, and he can escape the eyes of ordinary monks, but there is nothing unusual, this kind of blinding method can only confuse for a while, and he can't do anything with people, otherwise it will be exposed." In the past two days, it is probably not the first time he has gone out to meet with people, so we will go along. Look what he's doing! ”

Her toes touched lightly, and the Jinyun Disc moved with her heart. It quickly rose into the clouds, and then slowly moved past. When they arrived in front of that person, although they were already standing at a height of more than ten zhang in the air, separated by thick clouds, but when they saw the face of that person, the two women covered their mouths in surprise, but the corners of Gu Yan's mouth showed a sneering smile, as if they had expected it.

The man moved as lightly as a cat, and walked briskly hundreds of steps before he stopped in front of a hill. The small hill had half of the rocks sticking out, and the dissolved stones and stalactites hung down, and the dark green liquid was falling down with a fishy smell. But the man didn't care, he looked around, and realized that there was no one, so he whispered, "Childe is there?" ”

He exhaled three times in a row, and there was a ghost-like figure, turning out from behind the mountain rock, his whole body was covered with a black curtain, and he couldn't see his face clearly, and his voice was vague like a ghost crying, and he shouted in a low voice: "What are you doing again, didn't I say it, now you don't contact me at will, what's the matter, can't he still be the master?" ”

The man turned his head sideways at this time, and the faint light emitted from the vermilion mirror shone on half of his face, and he was still unconscious, and it was at this moment that Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong were extremely surprised when they saw his face. This man who sneaked quietly from the monk's residence late at night was Hu Zhiyuan, the head of Crane Shadow Pond!

His tall figure arched slightly at this time, and a seemingly flattering smile appeared on his face, "Childe, I'm just worried that the ban will be opened in three more days, and if the county guard opens the Celestial Phenomenon Falun at that time, then our affairs will not be completely covered, can Childe give me a guarantee that after I go out, I will be able to break away from Dongyang County and directly fall under the rule of Yunyang City?" ”

Childe was very impatient when he heard it, and he said in a low voice: "These things, I didn't tell you a long time ago, so naturally I won't deceive you, now that Yunze is in chaos, the big time is approaching, it's very easy to do tricks, you don't have to worry, such a big family, will you deceive a small crane shadow pool?" ”

Hu Zhiyuan smiled very humbly: "The villain naturally doesn't dare, but now that Heyingtan has reached a dead end, there is no room to retreat, and two disciples have died, and they have already made a bloody investment, for the sake of the sect's century-old plan, I really don't dare not be cautious." Childe made an appointment for haode, but he refused to start, I couldn't receive the message, how can I not be in a hurry. ”

Childe said patiently: "Don't worry, it won't take a day or two before it will be finally launched, Jihua will not change, but the time will be adjusted slightly, after all, in the Lancang Valley, there are changes that we can't predict yet, and it is also for a safe plan." Besides......" he said in a deep groan, "you have to be careful of that woman from the Bixia Sect, she is not on duty today, don't let her see the traces." ”

Hu Zhiyuan smiled, "Don't worry, Childe, I listened to your family's orders and deliberately avoided the time she was on duty, and at the beginning, I also deliberately provoked her and made a big plunge and rashness, I believe she will not be suspicious of me......"

Before his words fell, Childe had already waved his hand to stop his words, and said in a low voice: "You deliberately provoked her and embarrassed her?" Without waiting for Hu Zhiyuan to answer, he hit his forehead hard and said, "Oh no! I'm afraid she will see the clue this time, fortunately, she is not on duty tonight, otherwise your hidden god jade will inevitably be able to deceive her eyes, you go back quickly, except for waiting for my subordinates to contact you, otherwise don't come out again, remember! ”

Hu Zhiyuan was stunned and said: "Childe is not like this, although that woman is powerful in cultivation, she is only barely comparable to the people of the three major sects, why is she afraid of her like a snake and scorpion?" ”

Gongzi gritted his teeth and said: "You don't know how powerful she is, do you really think that the Bixia Sect is harmless to humans and animals to occupy Bixia Mountain, and the territory of the Danyang Sect has been handed over peacefully?" I dare to conclude that if it weren't for her decision behind her back, the little Bixia Sect would not have had such great courage and means! Halfway through his speech, he suddenly shouted: "No, since she noticed you a long time ago, she should have targeted you the first time, and she will still put it to this day?" ”

He suddenly took out a bronze mirror in his hand, the mottled and broken patterns on it, almost people couldn't help but discard it, and when he shone in the air, a snow-white light was emitted, and the light sprinkled by the Zhu Yan mirror in Gu Yan's hand collided, and suddenly there was a "silk" sound, and a stream of green smoke rose quickly, cutting through the thick clouds in an instant, and the Jinyun Disk where Gu Yan was standing was exposed in front of everyone without concealment.

Zhu Ying and Lin Zitong tightened their faces, holding the law enforcement weapon in their hands, standing on Gu Yan's side on the left and right, they were very nervous, Gu Yan was very relaxed, she lowered the Jinyun Disc slightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhan, Meridian Valley, it has been many years, is it okay?" ”

The man snorted, and simply took off the black curtain covering his face, and sure enough, it was Zhancheng, who had been silent since he separated from Gu Yan in Meridian Valley. "I knew that once I met you, I was afraid that there would be no good things, why, do you still have to embarrass me today?"

Gu Yan thought that he had dealt with him a lot of times, but there were many times of intrigue, and he couldn't help but smile: "Speaking of which, I have a fate with Brother Zhan, every time I go anywhere, I will be yujian, but when I was in Meridian Valley, I was scared by you and didn't dare to talk to you about anything." Her voice turned cold for a moment, "Since you know that I am in Dongyang County and in Bixia Sect, then Weishenme is going to come here to make trouble?" ”

Hu Zhiyuan was already frightened at this time, he and Zhancheng joined forces to plot the lives of these monks, once it was revealed, then in Dongyang County, he couldn't even compare to the rats crossing the street, and it was a quick end after everyone wanted to kill. Seeing that Zhancheng still had time to talk to Gu Yan, he couldn't help but sneer: "Young boy, what else to say, since he has been discovered, then simply kill people and start in advance, in the Lancang Valley, are you afraid that these girls will turn the sky upside down?" ”

Gu Yan's face turned cold, and he snorted, "Here is room for you to speak?" She raised the Zhu Yan mirror in her hand, and the twelve beast heads on it roared angrily and sent out green qi, twelve green qi like twelve dragons, flying down with teeth and claws, and instantly fixed the twelve directions around Hu Zhiyuan's body, Hu Zhiyuan was just about to make a move, he felt a murderous aura rushing to his face, all the directions around him were locked in an instant, and a killing intent hit the bottom of his heart, Hu Zhiyuan's whole body was shocked, and he didn't dare to move again, only staring at Gu Yan with resentful eyes.

Gu Yan showed a sneer and said, "You pretended to cause a riot among the monks under the pretense of the disappearance of your disciple, and you want to take advantage of the chaos to make trouble, if I guessed correctly, the disciple of Crane Shadow Pond and the disciple of Cumulus Peak were injured, it should be your handiwork, right?" Do you think that if your disciples are also injured at the same time, no one will suspect you, and then secretly trap the disciples of each faction one by one, the missing disciples, one of the two heads is seriously injured and does not wake up, and the other has not been seen so far, so it must have nothing to do with you, right? In the dangerous place of Lancang Valley, you have internal responses, which is enough to turn the world upside down, but I don't know Weishenme, you didn't start it immediately, but it has been delayed until now? (To be continued)
