"Whew! Whew! "It's a long way from the Blazing Yuan Sect to here, and Dai Mian ran down in one go. At this time, his body was beyond the limit. He was already relatively thin, and when he sat on the ground, he couldn't stand up.

"Hey, Senior Brother Long is always so kind to that woman named Yingtong, and when something happened to him, he started calling me again." Dai Mian complained as he looked into the distance, as if he was waiting for someone.

Suddenly, he felt something cold touch his neck from behind.

"Ahh He screamed in horror and rolled out of his body, crashing into a reddish-brown rock next to him.

A strange man was standing behind his place. This person was dressed in black, and his face was covered with a thick black veil, but a gap was exposed where his eyes were, and a cold gaze shot out of the gap, looking directly at Dai Mian, as if he had bitten him.

"Didn't you trade yesterday? Why is there a demand today? Transactions that are too frequent are prone to go wrong. The masked man said, his arms sticking out of his sleeves were actually two poisonous snakes spitting letters.

"Are you embarrassed to ask? Say! Is there a problem with those cartophobs that I gave me yesterday! Dai Mian struggled to get up from the ground, holding the rock with one hand and pointing at the masked man with the other.

"Questions? Did any of you fail to awaken with those bats from yesterday? The masked man's tone was not strong.

"Alas! Whether it's your fault or whose fault it is, anyway, now that Senior Brother is angry, I have to send him a few more, otherwise I'll finish playing. Seeing that the masked man did not react, Dai Mian waved his hand and looked at a cage wrapped in black cloth at his feet.

"I didn't have time to prepare today, so I only got three of them." The venomous snake in the masked man's left hand reached out and wrapped itself around the circular hook above the cage.

Dai Mian's eyes lit up, his mouth opened slightly, and he took two steps towards the cage, wanting to get it.

As soon as the masked guest exerted his strength, the viper's body suddenly tensed, lifting the cage entirely, leaving Dai Mian empty.

"Eh, although there are three less, but one can be counted as one, which solves the urgent need! Give it to me, my brother must be scolding me. Dai Mian rubbed his hands together and looked at the masked guest with a pleading expression.

"Vest first. One sentence, a total of three sentences to memorize. The masked man said coldly, raising the cage high.

"This ......" Dai Mian hesitated, he looked at the cage that was lifted by the poisonous snake, and was a little anxious.

"Someone came, terminate the transaction." The masked man suddenly said this, and with a whoosh, his figure was like electricity, and he disappeared in a flash.

"Hey!" Dai Mian shouted in the direction where his figure disappeared, a little unwilling.

Da-da-da-da! Da-da-da-da! There was a sound of horses' hooves, and Dai Mian turned around to find four men in red armor hurrying from one side of the mountain range.

"Blazing cavalry?" Dai Mian muttered to himself in a daze.

"Over there! Is it a disciple of the Blazing Yuan Sect? What are you doing here? One of the four, the leader of the four, asked aloud, wearing a red helmet that made him unable to see his face clearly.

"Under is the eighth disciple, Dai Mian. I came here to mine the iron ore. The horse team stopped in front of them, and Dai Mian replied with his head tilted.

"Did you see anyone running this way just now?" The man at the head asked.

"No, no." Dai Mian hurriedly shook his head and replied.

"Don't stay outside, go back to the sect. Long Yuyang was attacked and seriously wounded. The man spoke quickly.

"Senior Brother Long is seriously injured? Who did this to you? Dai Mian's face suddenly turned pale, and he asked in a trembling voice.

"There seems to be something wrong with the awakening furnace, someone has failed to awaken." The man in the red armor replied, "Go! Let's go over there! He pointed in the other direction to the forest, not far away, and rode away with the other three men.

"Oops! Oops! Dai Mian stomped his feet anxiously, took a few breaths, and turned around and ran in the direction of Blazing Yuan Valley.

......

......

......

"Bats? Long Yuyang? Awakening furnace? ......" garbled words kept popping out of Gao Zhen's mind, and he was a little confused.

After killing the four burning wolves who wanted to besiege him, he continued to run towards the Flame Iron Mine. It was expected to be about half an hour, but because of the delay in the battle, he arrived at the mouth of the cave near the mine near noon.

He wanted to sit down and rest for a while and eat some dry food, when he suddenly heard someone coming. Although he didn't come to the cave on the side of the mine, he was afraid of being discovered by the people of the Blazing Yuan Sect, so Gao Zhen ran out of the cave, climbed a hillside, hid in a rock crevice, and observed the movement below from a high place.

Due to the proximity to the valley, the ore underground is more dense, the air is hot and dry, and there is little wind, so you can clearly hear the people below.

He first saw this relatively thin disciple of the Blazing Yuan Sect called Dai Mian. Later, a masked mysterious person was found talking to Dai Mian. Looking at the masked guest's costume, Gao Zhen felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

It wasn't until the masked man stretched out his arm, which were two dark black poisonous snakes, that Gao Zhen remembered, isn't this the demon disciple called "Ghost Snake" who he and Yu Yan took a carriage from Shengchen Island back to Yunyanmen before, and killed them halfway to snatch An Lan with the pincer demon cultists?

How did he end up here? And he was actually trading with the people of the Blazing Yuan Sect. From their conversations, it was clear that this was not the first time this was a deal. The disciples of the Blazing Yuan Sect would exchange their hearts for an animal called "Bla" in the hands of the ghost snake?

What is this "cataper bat"? What does it have to do with the "Awakening Furnace" mentioned by the knight in red armor later? What kind of character is the "Senior Brother Long" who has been mentioned several times? Who is the woman named "Yingtong" that Dai Mian is talking about? What does it have to do with Senior Brother Long? Who attacked Senior Brother Long, and who failed to awaken?

One question after another appeared in Gao Zhen's mind, and in just more than ten minutes of eavesdropping, he received too much news at once, and gradually became a little unbearable, and he couldn't figure out the whole thing.

Still, he grabbed two important clues from these questions.

The first is that there are people in the Blazing Yuan Sect who collude with the Demon Sect, although I don't know what the purpose of the transaction is, but the "heart decision" mentioned in the transaction is very worthy of attention. Gao Zhen was extremely suspicious that a certain peerless sect within the Blazing Yuan Sect had been passed on to the Demon Sect by this disciple named Dai Mian.

The second is that there is an accident within the Blazing Yuan Sect, and it seems to be a bit serious. The person named Long Yuyang was called Senior Brother by Dai Mian, and it was very likely that he was a character like Yu Yan in Yunyanmen, and he was the senior brother of the disciples. He was attacked and seriously injured, so the people in the sect took it very seriously and called all the disciples back.

Gao Pillow rose from the crack in the rock, and looked towards the place where the four knights in red armor had disappeared, the forest that he had passed by when he came.

Will they find burned wolf carcasses? Will your whereabouts be revealed? A trace of worry arose in Gao Zhen's heart, and he decided to go back to the forest to check it out after digging the iron ore, and by the way, to see who they were looking for.
