Chapter 301: Eavesdropping
In the palace, the large golden "silkworm cocoon" is more like a huge golden seed, suspended in mid-air three feet above the ground. -.-
Xiao Chen tried it, and the "silkworm cocoon" was very strong, even if it was a sharp dagger, it couldn't hurt it in the slightest.
But he was still not at ease, and brought a large number of stones from the outside, sealed the other entrances and exits of the palace, leaving only one, and also set up a labyrinth passage outside.
In this way, there is no need to worry about the beasts that strayed into this place, with their wisdom, even the highest-level mysterious beasts will not be able to pass through the labyrinth smoothly.
It took him ten days to get it all done.
In ten days, there was no change in the "silkworm cocoon", and in the following days, he went out to hunt beasts during the day to improve his actual combat experience, and practiced his soul power at night.
A month has passed, and there is still no change in the "cocoon".
Another month passed, and during that time he came close to making the cut on several occasions, but each time it came to a critical moment, he dropped the chain.
In the end, he found that it was because he cared too much about the fluttering in the "cocoon", couldn't maintain the attitude of stopping the water, and was always distracted at a critical moment, so he failed again and again.
For two whole months, Piao Piao still had no intention of breaking out of the cocoon, and there was not even the slightest sign of it.
Thinking back to the promise he had made, he felt that if he stayed here, the promotion would become a difficult thing, and if one day the goddess recovered and he was still at the ninth level of the Qi Martial Realm, wouldn't it disappoint her.
So, he decided to leave for a while and go out for a change of mood.
Early the next morning, after changing into a new suit, he stood in front of the "silkworm cocoon", stretched out his hand and gently stroked -mo, while saying softly: "Piao Piao, you stay here obediently, don't be naughty, you know, I will come to see you often." ”
After saying that, he put a handwritten letter on the stone case next to him and turned to leave.
Walking out of the Lost Forest, the scene outside has changed a lot, it was still early summer when the two of them left Huangji Sect, and now it is approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Carefully calculated, Xiao Chen has been in this world for more than a year.
Looking back on what happened in the past year, I can't help but feel a lot of emotion.
At sunset, the reception station of the sect appeared in his sight, and it would have taken him only half a day to come here. Remembering the last time the elders took care of him, he felt that he should show something, so he hunted a few red deer and yellow sheep on the road and wanted to give them as gifts, so he wasted a lot of time.
The reception station is brightly lit, and dozens of horses can be seen parked in the yard from a distance.
What is the situation? Could it be an expedition sent by the sect, shouldn't it, the Emperor Extreme Sect is used to sending people into the realm of forsaken in winter. Because the beasts in autumn need a lot of meat to replenish nutrients in order to survive the winter, it is the most ferocious time, and it is very dangerous to come here during such a season.
He subconsciously slowed down and quietly walked around to the side, instead of going straight to the door.
Put your pricked ears against the wall, no, it's too noisy, there are at least a dozen people talking at the same time, and you can't hear the specifics at all - the content.
A leaf martial spirit quietly slipped into the crack in the window and fell to the ground flutteringly, without attracting anyone's attention.
Someone slapped the table and shouted: "Be quiet, what's the noisy and noisy, people who don't know still think that we are a bargaining cattle market here, you and I are both from the sect, pay attention to identity and quality." ”
Everyone didn't think so, but they quieted down, and it was an elder with a high status who slapped the table, and continued: "I know what you are thinking, everyone has been looking hard for three months, and now there is no clue at all, and the sect is urging so urgently......
"It's not just urgent, everyone has been scolded several times, and I don't want to be scolded by the law enforcement elders for being incompetent. Another elder chimed in.
"Yes, I don't want to, where did Xiao Chen go? Everyone has searched all the nearby state capitals, where else can he hide, could it be a dark zone?"
"Impossible, with his strength, how dare he enter the dark zone, and stay for several months. ”
"That bastard boy, even if he caused trouble and ran away, he even kidnapped Elder Piaopiao, it's too much. ”
"I also wondered, how could Elder Piaopiao, such a wise person, leave the sect with him, and when he left, he didn't say hello to anyone, let alone leave a word. ”
"With Elder Piaopiao, he may be able to survive in the dark zone, I suggest that everyone go into the Forsaken Forest together tomorrow and search carefully. ”
"It's easy to say, the beasts are the most aggressive now, and they're very dangerous. ”
More and more people spoke, and soon the messy scene resumed.
The elder who slapped the table shook his head helplessly, as the leader of the team, he has not been able to complete the task until now, he has an unshirkable responsibility, and it is understandable for everyone to complain.
Their task is to find Piao Piao and Xiao Chen.
But it's been three months since I received this mission, and I haven't been able to find any useful clues.
The little marquis who was eavesdropping outside was very depressed, why did you say that I abducted Piaopiao, not that she abducted me, do you just don't believe in my character?
To be honest, everyone really doesn't believe it, Piao Piao is a lotus flower out of the mud in everyone's eyes, but Xiao Chen is a guy who causes trouble all day long, so it is even more suspicious.
Even they thought that Xiao Chen took advantage of Piaopiao's illness and used indiscriminate means to trick her out of the sect.
The only useful clue they found was that three months ago, someone saw a man and a woman in a nearby town restaurant, very similar to the two, and the two had a conflict with the guards of the Qin Palace.
A group of people followed the vine to touch the melon, but the final result was that the vine was found, but the melon was not found.
What they didn't understand the most was that all the guards who were beaten in the Qin Palace's Mansion were dead, and the clues were broken.
And when they went to the Qin Palace, the other party did not forgive, not saying that their people died in the hands of Xiao Chen and Piaopiao.
If you want to say that Xiao Chen kills people, they believe it, how can the goddess-like Piao Piao Elder kill innocents indiscriminately, for this reason, they have been arguing with the people of Qin Wangfu for a long time.
The little marquis outside breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't go in directly just now, otherwise he would have thrown himself into the net.
Obviously, these people will not be polite to him, and they are all buttoned up with the big hat of the abducted goddess elder, but there is one thing he can't understand, what are the people from Zixiao Gate coming to make trouble?
Last time, Xu Jingnan obviously ate a nail, and was seriously injured by Xiao Chen, didn't they go back in disgrace?
He had no idea that on Xu Jingnan's way back, all ten people were brutally killed.
No matter what happened, the Emperor Extreme Sect couldn't go back for the time being, and it was not difficult to see from the attitude of the people inside that they would definitely not give themselves a chance to explain.
So, let's figure out the situation first.
At the same time, it's time to settle the matter of the Blood Shadow Gate, and you might as well put these two things together.
continued to eavesdrop for a while, only to learn that Xu Jingnan died unexpectedly, and he left quietly.
