Chapter 7 The White-Hearted Taoist
In the Yuqing Palace, a large group of people came and went, looking anxious and obviously outward. And in the palace, the purple-robed man, who is the third palace master of Yuqing Palace, Li Yue, sat with that and constantly issued instructions.
"Huaqing, you take your disciples to the east; Hua Hai took his disciples to the south, and Hua Ming and Hua Xing went to the west and north respectively, no matter what, they must find out the news of my second sister-in-law, do you know? ”
"Yes, Palace Master." The four of them said and hurriedly stepped out.
Li Yue was left alone in the main hall, and the incident happened not long ago, the disciple who was waiting for the soul 'jade' Jane suddenly came to report that the soul 'jade' Jane of the second palace lord was broken, and the frightened disciple ran to tell Li Yue. Li Yue was also shocked when he heard this, and his soul 'jade' Jane was broken? That means that the person who recorded the soul breath has disappeared, or it can also be expressed as death.
At the beginning, the news of Taihuazi's death was known so quickly by Yuqing Palace, and it was precisely because of the soul 'jade' Jane.
Li Yue's five fingers kept tapping on the handrail, his face full of worry.
Since the second sister-in-law left three days ago, there has been no news back, until now. But for this sudden news, it is really scrambling, and I don't know what happened to her.
"Palace Master, Leng Yan, who went out to inquire, is back."
"Let him in." Li Yue immediately commanded.
After a while, Leng Yan came in, and Li Yue immediately asked, "Leng Yan, have you found any news?" ”
"Returning to the third palace master, my subordinates have inquired about the breath of the second lady a hundred miles to the east, but there is no second lady's breath in the Yuqing Palace and other locations in that place."
"I know this, don't worry about this for now, there is still a breath where no one else has been found."
"Yes, it's just ......"
"Just what, say it!" Li Yue suddenly shouted loudly.
"Back to the Third Palace Lord, that other breath is left by the person that the Second Lady sent me to hunt down a few days ago, if my expectations are right, that person should be in the Divine Summer Palace at this moment."
"Divine Summer Palace? Could it be that the reason for the second lady's news has something to do with that person? Li Yue's brows suddenly became tangled.
"Back to the palace master, according to the subordinates, there is a big strange thing at this time, the subordinates have seen that person at that time, although he will exert a little domain power, but his own cultivation is really low, it is impossible for him to cause harm to the second lady at all, and there is no sign of fighting in that place, which proves that the second lady disappeared suddenly."
"I understand, you go down first, by the way, send someone to find the second palace master to come back immediately."
Li Yue wandered left and right in the main hall, looking uneasy. He really couldn't think of why the second lady would suddenly disappear, regardless of the strength of the Yuqing Palace, the second lady's own cultivation was already close to the level of an emperor immortal, who could poison so easily?
"Could it be that this matter really has something to do with the Divine Summer Palace?" Li Yue's expression was stunned, and his eyes were shocked with a terrifying look. Let's ask the fairy world that dares to oppose Yuqing Palace, except for the Valley of Ten Thousand 'Flowers', there is only the Divine Summer Palace, but the Valley of Ten Thousand 'Flowers' has been hiding from the world for many years, and it is impossible to have any entanglement with the Yuqing Palace, so the suspicion of the Divine Summer Palace is the greatest.
As the interior of the Yuqing Palace continued to be busy, more and more disciples were sent, all just to track down the whereabouts of the second palace master's wife.
Dao Dao sword light flashed in the sky, and the people they met everywhere they went looked at each other in amazement, thinking about what had happened.
"Hey, what do you say is wrong with Yuqing Palace? So many disciples have been sent out, and they are not idle people to see the cultivation one by one. ”
"How do I know that they are going to war with the Divine Summer Palace again? It's just that they didn't use so many disciples for the conflict with the Divine Summer Palace a hundred years ago, right? ”
"Indeed, by the way, let's go and ask Bai Xin Daoren, he is well-informed and must know what happened."
As the two passers-by left, a young man stopped beside them, also looked up at the Yuqing Palace disciples who were passing by, and muttered in a low voice: "Could it be that the Yuqing Palace is really going to war with the Divine Summer Palace?" "This person is Zhang Fan, who left from the Shenxia Palace, and he stayed there for a few days and did not continue to stay.
"Could it be related to the matter of Broken Cloud Smoke saving me?" Zhang Fan thought about it and couldn't help laughing, it was absolutely impossible, Duan Yunyan also said that he had never heard of Taihuazi's name, he must not be a big person in Yuqing Palace, and Yuqing Palace naturally couldn't trouble Shenxia Palace for a person who was so excited.
"By the way, why don't you go and have a look." Thinking about it, Zhang Fan galloped out with a flying sword and followed the two passers-by who left, and they said that the Baixin Daoist could know what news Fortunately, Zhang Fan also went to find out with him.
After flying for about an hour, I came to a mountain cliff, and on the top of a towering mountain peak there was a large mansion, which was hidden in the clouds in all directions.
"So many people?" Zhang Fan was greatly surprised, there were nearly a hundred people crowded outside the big mansion, not only that, but at this moment, there were many people flying from other places, and after a careful look, there were many disciples of Yuqing Palace.
Zhang Fan descended and walked into the crowd, and heard a noisy noise in his ears.
"Why are so many people here today, usually it's quiet here and you can't even see the ghosts, but today so many people popped up all at once." A bearded man shouted loudly, but the man's costume was a little nondescript, but the burly body was wearing a long white 'colored' coat, how weird it looked, coupled with constant friction, it was almost a rag at the moment.
"Who knows, this friend, what do you have to ask Bai Xindao?"
"What else can it be, of course, because of the affairs of Yuqing Palace, so many disciples are collectively dispatched, this is a big deal, you need to know more about it, otherwise how can you reap the benefits of fighting."
"Hey, you're doing this too?" As soon as the man shouted, everyone next to him looked over, and it seemed that they were all for the same purpose.
Zhang Fan nodded, although he was sure of the purpose of these people's coming, he still didn't understand, what benefits could they gain from Yuqing Palace's war with others? Then he asked a person next to him softly: "This friend, what is the benefit of what that person said just now?" ”
The faces of the people around him were a little thin, and the eyes that were not much bigger than beans were still narrowed, "You don't even know this, newcomer?" ”
Zhang Fan was stunned, not for the newcomer that the other party said, but for the other party's tone, how did he sound like the eldest brother of *** was saying to the younger brother below, "You are new?" It's just that Zhang Fan had to nod in distress, indicating that he was indeed new.
But the man was very unkind, and then continued to squeeze forward, without answering Zhang Fan's question at all. Zhang Fan clenched his fists, eager to slash this person with a sword, but as long as he found another person to ask the same question, this time he chose a very old looking person, full of silver hair, but it was a dry branch on a cold day, and there was not much left.
This old man was kind, and explained the so-called benefits to Zhang Fan in detail, and Zhang Fan nodded again and again when he listened.
It turns out that the so-called 'profit' is also the meaning of snatching, that is, the two sides fight and invite their own helpers, and the winning side in the end can get a lot of things, as for what to grab depends on your own luck. One of the more typical is the great battle between the Shenxia Palace and the Yuqing Palace a hundred years ago, the battle between the two sides in the Heavenly Absolute Valley killed and injured many people, and as a lot of people outside these two factions also participated in this war, and the survivors have taken a lot of precious magic weapons, pills and 'medicines'.
Therefore, for them, the meaning of existence is somewhat similar to the 'mercenary' that Zhang Fan knows, if they help, they will have benefits, both the benefits of the employer and the loot. Zhang Fan is not very strange about this kind of thing, after all, each 'sect' pays great attention to the disciples in their own 'sect', especially the kind of disciples who belong to the mainstay, and it is a great price to have a death or injury, and it is best to be able to exchange some magic weapons for the replacement of others.
For this, the big 'gate' faction must fight for both strength and internal resources, and the more people you can invite to win, it will be yours. And what these immortal 'mercenaries' want to know is the news, regardless of whether they can get the benefit or not, the most important thing is to keep their names, and who is the participant in the battle has a better chance of winning this kind of news is what they are most concerned about. Therefore, there are not many people who can't be seen in normal times, but at this moment, the 'door' is like a city.
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan couldn't help but laugh for a while, whether the Shenxia Palace and the Yuqing Palace would go to war was still in the speculation stage, but it attracted so many people to see the great benefits involved.
"It's out, it's out." One shouted loudly. The big 'door' of the house opened, and a child came out.
"Hey, kid, your master is a Baixin Daoist, call him out quickly, we have something to ask him."
"Yes, hurry, hurry!"
There was a pause in the noise for a while, but the boy was calm, only to hear him cough, and immediately said loudly: "Everyone, I'm sorry, because there are too many people who want to see my master today, so my master decided to select ten people from the seniors to meet the family teacher." ”
"What? You also have to limit the number of people, what is this called? ”
"Everyone, this is the meaning of the master, and I don't dare to disobey it, so please ask the ten people below who have the wooden sign mark to come in with me." After Dao Tong finished speaking, he reached out with both hands, and five fast wooden cards appeared on each hand, and then stretched out his hand in a row, and the ten fast wooden cards rose into the sky and immediately turned into ten streamers and quickly fell and fell in ten different positions.
"Huh? Am I chosen by the Wooden Sign? Ha ha! One laughed and raised his hand.
Zhang Fan also raised his right hand, only to see a very small wooden mark on the palm of his hand, which was extremely fine, and Zhang Fan was suddenly surprised under the careful stroke, "How is this imprinted?" ”
"Alright, now please come with me the ten people who have been chosen."
