Chapter 137

"If you want to discover the strangeness of the jade pendant, it is not a day's work, and it is the most important thing to capture the red devil at the moment. ”

"Exactly. ”

The two of them made up their minds and used their skills again, quickly sweeping towards the low mountain where the Red Devil was heading. Because they were pulled away a little this time, the speed of the two of them increased slightly, and after about half an hour, the shadow of the Red Devil could be faintly seen.

It is a low mountain range, no higher than a li, and the slope is not very steep, so it is called a "mountain range" because the low mountains are endless, and the northwest direction is at least more than 100 miles.

Standing in the current place where the two of them are, it is difficult to get a glimpse of the whole mountain range unless they deliberately raise their figures.

The trees on the low hill are not luxuriant, but the weeds are waist-high, and it is late at night in the late summer, and the cries of various insects in the grass are heard one after another, and birds and beasts can be heard from time to time.

Looking up, the figure of the Red Devil was faintly on the top of the mountain, and it was said that it was vaguely because his figure was fleeting, and he soon crossed the mountain and walked towards the back of the mountain that the two of them could not see.

Since there is no suitable hiding place here, Li Xunlian and Xu Lin did not rush after it, but just swept in with the weeds, although the speed has decreased, but this distance has returned to the range of Li Xunlian's perception, and they are not afraid of losing the red devil.

As I said before, the ridge is not high, and after a while, the two of them have already come to the top of the mountain, and looking down, the Red Devil is moving quickly to the northwest on the sheep intestine path between the two mountains, that direction is the direction of the north gate of Blackwater City, and after walking more than ten miles along this path, you can step on the official road, and after three miles, you can return to Blackwater City.

Li Xunlian and Xu Lin glanced at each other, nodded and then urged the body method with all their might, and at this moment he couldn't hide anymore, because the Red Devil had changed his attention for some reason, and he already wanted to go back to Blackwater City.

The distance of thirteen miles is not very far for the power of Xuan Xiu, if there is a battle here, it may be possible to avoid the Chimu Spirit sitting in Blackwater City, but if it is closer, there is really no guarantee that the disturbance will not alarm the Chimu Ling.

Thinking of this, the two of them each exerted their full strength, and Xu Lin, as a great power of the Divine Sea, was naturally not slow. And Li Xunlian has a four-character scripture, although he can't keep up with Xu Lin's rhythm, he won't be thrown too far.

The Red Devil's original intention was indeed as Li Xunlian guessed, he thought that Li Xunlian would chase and kill him, and also thought that they would subconsciously chase after Blackwater City, according to his original plan, he should continue to travel a distance to the mountains, and wait until it was almost dawn to go back.

But halfway through the journey, things took a turn for the worse, and he sent back the news that he had planted an eye in the city, which roughly meant that a suspicious person had been found in the city.

Of course, passing on the news is a nice statement, but the fact is just the same as the Chen family brothers, but the Red Demon Son planted a strange formation in a few Xuan Xiu Qi seas and forced them to work for themselves.

It was this suspicious person who changed the course of the Red Devil, this person is also a powerful person of the Divine Sea, and his strength is quite terrifying, the main feature is that he is extremely fast, and he can kill people invisibly.

It's not that Blackwater City hasn't resisted, since the last time Taishou was assassinated, the new Taishou of Blackwater City has been extra careful, and he hasn't been idle these days, and he has invited many masters from all over the Southland, and the Red Devil is also one of them, but he belongs to Mao Sui's self-recommendation, and he is also with the former Taishou.

According to the information, the suspicious person easily killed ten Tianhe powerhouses in just ten rounds and retreated, and even Lord Chimu Ling couldn't stop him. However, it is worth mentioning that he didn't dare to fight with Chimu Ling at all, and it was not absolute that Chimu Ling couldn't stop him, although the speed couldn't keep up, but if he really wanted to go all out, the other party would not have the power to escape, and the reason why he couldn't keep him was just that Chimu Ling didn't want to use some powerful stunts.

Knowing that these red devils must go back, because in his opinion, this person is likely to be related to the murderer who assassinated the previous Taishou a few days ago, and he is not loyal to that Taishou, but just wants to show himself in front of Chimu Ling as much as possible, otherwise why should he get help from others.

You must know that what the Red Devil hates the most is the Zhu Imperial Court, and he now deeply realizes that he will never be able to compete with Zhu Yi on his own, not to mention that Zhu Yi also has a huge empire as a foundation, so he will track it all the way after accidentally getting some clues from the demon clan, and finally pin his hope on Chimu Ling's head.

The Red Devil knew that Chimu Ling was a demon clan and an invader of Kyushu, but he didn't care, in his eyes there was only hatred and benefit, and the hatred was the enmity with the Qingxiao royal family, and the benefit was the benefit that Chimu Ling could give him.

Not to mention the gossip, and said that the Red Devil was thinking about who the suspicious person was while hurrying all the way, and suddenly, two breaths appeared out of thin air behind him, and the distance was very close, and it was no longer a mile away.

Looking back in shock, the Red Devil saw Xu Lin at first sight, and then naturally it was Li Xunlian who dropped out behind Xu Lin.

If you want to say that the person who is hated the most in the life of the Red Devil, in addition to Zhu Yi, there is another Li Xunlian today!

For no other reason, the reason why Xu Lin chased and killed himself was that in the eyes of the Red Devil, Li Xunlian must have been the obstruction.

In fact, it is reasonable for him to think so, after all, Xu Lin has not been good with him all the way, and Li Xunlian has appeared and his identity is exposed, so he must have the motive to kill himself.

It was as if the pupilless eyes flashed with a cold light, and the Red Devil was the first to determine whether he could escape, and after a short and quick calculation, he gave up this plan, because the distance was too close, and he was not good at his body, and he would be caught up by Xu Lin if he couldn't get to Blackwater City.

Thinking of this, the Red Devil stopped and turned around, and at the same time, his angry expression immediately turned to a smile. Although he already has the idea of fighting to the death, he will not do it lightly until he has to.

There are many smart people in this world, and the Red Devil is undoubtedly one, but he is only smart but not shrewd, if he can think about it carefully at this moment, he will find that the reason why Xu Lin and Li Xunlian suddenly appeared and chased after him was that he was close to Blackwater City.

But these Red Devils didn't expect it, all he thought of was that Xu Lin and Li Xunlian had been secretly following him for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible to be in his own Xu as if they appeared out of thin air.

"Why are you two of you, don't you talk a lot?" the Red Devil shouted, his seemingly back-to-back hands already secretly lucky.

When the two of them heard this, they didn't answer, but took advantage of the opportunity for the Red Devil to wait for a reply to speed up a few more points, and only then did they breathe a sigh of relief when they were within the range of the attack.

"Yo he, it's a coincidence, I just met you here again and got old. Li Xunlian had a hippie smile, but he was secretly ready to do it.

"Fart, is there such a coincidence? Can I call it a coincidence if I run and you chase him?" The Red Devil's nose trembled, and it felt really bad to be chased by two juniors.

"Don't be so grumpy, I suddenly remembered a few things I want to ask you. Li Xunlian pretended to be upright, in order to relax the tense heartstrings of the Red Devil. Judging from the Red Devil's behavior of stopping and asking, Li Xunlian knew that he already had the intention of breaking the net, which was very bad, and he had to loosen his strings.

People's psychological endurance has a limit, just like the strings, it is easy to break if it is loose and tight, what Li Xunlian has to do now is to make the Red Devil's psychological defense line collapse, and he can't figure out Li and their true intentions, so that after doing it, it will be easier to pay a small price to achieve the desired result.

"What's the matter?" The Red Devil didn't let down his guard too much, but his tone was obviously a little lighter, after all, he didn't want to make a move with Xu Lin.

"When you destroyed the Hongguan, did you meet a Taoist named Hong Yuzi? Li Xunlian asked casually, in fact, it was not accurate to say casually, because he really wanted to know if the breathing qi technique was obtained from the Juehong view.

Red Devil frowned slightly when he heard this, he didn't understand how Li Xunlian could know about this, because although Xu Lin knew that it was he who destroyed the Absolute Rainbow Temple, he shouldn't know about Hong Yuzi. But then again, Jue Hongguan and Hong Yuzi, what do these have to do with Li Xunlian.

With doubts in his heart, the Red Devil's defensive psychology involuntarily weakened a little, Li Xunlian peeked into his heart through his expression, and couldn't help but laugh a few times, but now is not the best time to do it.

"He took my stuff. "Li Xunlian is purely honest this time.

"What did you take?" Red Devil is also a human being, and if he is a human being, he will inevitably be curious, not to mention that Li Xunlian is still a person he "values".

Looking at the old and cunning expression of the Red Devil, Li Xunlian knew that he must be analyzing whether he could find an opportunity to use himself through this matter, so he would plan and give him a chance.

"You've already seen me, so it's useless for me to hide my identity from you, so I'll tell you the truth, my identity jade plate is with Hong Yuzi, I have to get it back, otherwise I don't have the news of my death, and I will definitely be known by King Cheng." Li Xunlian always uses "you" when he speaks, which is also a small scheming, and before that, he would never be called "you" to the Red Devil.

Red Devil's thinking was turning, and when he started, there were only two people who escaped from the Absolute Rainbow Temple, these two points were Hong Yuzi and Hong Tianzi, and they obviously had no nostalgia at all when they fled, which shows that the two of them had already had a way out when he suddenly killed the Absolute Rainbow Temple, and now it seems that this retreat should be to take Li Xunlian's identity jade card to Dragon Bone City in exchange for a merit.

This is the subjective conjecture of the Red Devil, and of course there are quite a lot of coincidences, because Hong Yu and Hong Tianshi did not have nostalgia at that time, it was not because they got Li Xunlian's clues, but because the Taishou Lady of Blackwater City hired them a few days ago.

"I don't know. "The Red Devil is not a fool after all, and he also knows that subjective inference cannot be used as a real basis, so he wants to test Li Xunlian. This sentence is a temptation, and when he says I don't know, he deliberately lacks confidence, looks ambiguous, and it is very likely that he really knows, and it is a bit like he really doesn't know.

Li Xunlian has never lost to anyone, and the little trick of the Red Devil naturally can't hide it from him, because the identity jade card is still in the Sumeru ring.

"Since you don't know, forget it, I thought I was making a deal with you, but now it seems that you don't have that leverage. Li Xunlian sneered, and immediately looked at Xu Lin.

As soon as the Red Devil saw this posture, his heart suddenly burst out, if there are no chips, there is no value, and if there is no value, he has to kill his mouth......

"Slow, let's make it clear to Li Dian, what kind of deal?" The Red Devil is empty, if Li Xunlian and Xu Lin do it directly after they get here, he won't be like this, but after the two came, they didn't mean to do it immediately, which made the Red Devil have a desire to survive, but now that the situation is about to change, from hope to disappointment, he will naturally feel worried.

This is Li Xunlian's strategy, and it has roughly achieved results so far, the aura of the Red Devil was still very strong before, because he had the determination to break the net, but now that aura no longer exists, and instead of trying to be as complete as possible, it has fallen behind, and now it has less sharpness, it can be imagined that if you do it later, what will happen to the Red Devil one after the other.

"I know you know for sure you know the clues, you tell me, and I tell you a message that I want to know. Li Xunlian said with a smile, he still has to toss the Red Devil for a while, of course, this toss has a purpose, not just teasing.

As soon as the Red Devil heard the spirit, Li Xunlian wanted to kill people when he didn't get the news, which shows that he attaches great importance to this!

Thinking like this, the Red Devil rolled his eyes and said nonsense: "Hong Yuzi, I have indeed seen it, and I did see him holding a jade plate in his hand, but it was night at the time, and the general style was not clear, and now it seems that it should be your identity jade plate." ”

Li Xunlian secretly laughed when he heard this, if you want to say that this red devil is stupid, he is really not stupid at all, and he is quite shrewd. This sentence seems to be unremarkable, but it blocks the problem that Li Xun is connected to. Because he couldn't see clearly, Li Xunlian couldn't ask what the jade plate looked like, and he couldn't tell the truth of what he said.

Of course, the premise of all this must be based on Li Xunlian really losing the jade plate, but Li Xunlian didn't lose it at all, so no matter how similar the red devil pretends to be, how smooth he lies, Li Xunlian can see through it at once.

"That must be my identity jade card!" Li Xunlian turned his eyes to Xu Lin, feigning surprise.

Xu Lin nodded inexplicably, because he didn't know whether Li Xunlian's jade plate had been lost or not, and Li Xunlian had not discussed all the topics in advance.

"Then do you know where Hong Yuzi is now?" Li Xunlian asked the Red Devil again, his tone slightly excited.

"Yes, yes, but that seems to be the second problem. The Red Devil sneered, and by now he already felt that he had grasped Li Xunlian's handle.

Li Xunlian frowned, his eyes showed coldness again, the red devil scolded in his heart when he saw this, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, after all, he was not ready to die and the net was broken, no one wanted to die if he could live, not to mention that he had also experienced decades of prison life, and cherished the life in front of him more than anyone else.

"Don't play word games with me, I have a good temper, but Brother Xu doesn't have a good temper. Li Xunlian pretended to be angry, but he couldn't hold back his heart and wanted to laugh.

"Little bastard, don't ask Lao Tzu if there's a kind. The Red Devil gritted his teeth, secretly exclaiming that he was reluctant to let the child not be able to trap the wolf, and the stronger he behaved, the more Li Xunlian would believe that he had what he needed in his hands.

Hearing this, Li Xunlian fell silent, and after a while, he said coldly: "Okay, as you said, then you ask me now, but I warn you, don't play any tricks, and this topic is not over yet." ”

"Haha, no problem, but go on, you still have to answer what I want to know. The Red Devil felt more and more that he had restrained Li Xunlian, thought for a moment, and asked, "Is Chief Wei's weakness a cold backlash?"

This question was asked by the Red Devil after careful consideration, and he knew that Li Xunlian would not answer truthfully, but he could guess the true answer from Li Xunlian's expression and tone when he answered.

Li Xunlian didn't answer immediately, but quickly analyzed the purpose of the Red Devil in his mind, which is why he tossed the Red Devil, giving the Red Devil a chance to ask questions, so as to analyze the plans he was making or preparing to carry out from his questions.

As we all know, Manager Wei is one of Zhu Yi's right-hand men who rely on the most, and the Red Devil and Zhu Yi do not share the sky, and he asked this question, obviously preparing to attack the imperial court. The reason why he wanted to ask Chief Manager Wei instead of directly asking about the weaknesses of the imperial court was because the Red Demon Zi knew that he was not capable of directly confronting Zhu Yi, and he also knew that Li Xunlian knew Chief Wei better.

"Yes. Li Xunlian replied decisively after getting the answer, his answer was true, Manager Wei would indeed be eaten by a huge amount of Xuanyin Qi, because his qi wall was not so strong, but he cultivated the Xuanyin Qi to the transformation realm, so every once in a while, Manager Wei would fall into a state of self-freezing, which not only Li Xunlian knew, but many people in Ouchi knew, which was one of the reasons why Li Xunlian answered so simply.

Many people know that if the Red Devil has the heart to investigate, even if he doesn't say it here, he will definitely be able to find out the clues. But the main thing is that the Red Devil will definitely die here today.

What's the harm of a dead man telling him a big secret?

The Red Devil was very satisfied with Li Xunlian's answer, in fact, he had already learned this, and the reason why he had to waste a question to inquire was to be sure on the one hand, and to verify whether Li Xunlian would tell the truth.

"Anyway, the old man has the means to continue to ask, hehe, the kid will take the trick. The Red Devil was secretly smug.

At the same time, Li Xunlian is also secretly proud, this is also due to two aspects, on the one hand, although the Red Devil's defense has been greatly reduced, he still instinctively uses Xuan Qi to protect the vital points of the body, in order to prevent Xu Lin from breaking out, at the moment the Xuan Qi of heaven and earth cannot be ingested, Xu Lin has a mysterious jade pendant as a support, but the Red Devil does not, although the consumption of the Xuan Qi of the body is very slow, but he is also a real consumption of one point less than one point, this is one of them.

Second, Li Xunlian also knew that the question of the Red Devil would not involve his specific intentions, and after this question, he had been misled by himself into believing more that he valued the identity jade card, that is, the whereabouts of Hong Yuzi, and then his question would definitely go straight to the center, even if there was a disguise, Li Xunlian was confident that he could analyze it.

"The second question is still the same as before, where is Hong Yuzi now. Li Xunlian asked again.

"He's dead. The Red Devil cherishes words like gold, because he knows that Li Xunlian will continue to ask questions, so that he can continue to ask rhetorically.

"Dead, how did he die, who killed him?" Li Xunlian asked knowingly, his identity was not revealed that day, and in the eyes of the Red Devil, it was impossible for Li Xunlian to kill the seven Lingxi Realm cultivators in Hualou by himself.

Hearing this, the Red Devil stretched out three fingers, indicating that this was already the third question.

Li Xunlian pretended to be annoyed, and said impatiently: "You ask!"

"Haha, the old man wants to ask, how powerful is the mountain protection array of the inn?"

Hearing this, Li Xunlian frowned again, this time he really frowned, because there were too many motives involved in the Red Devil's question, but after thinking about it carefully, Li Xunlian guessed the general direction after a while.

Xu Lin had already said that the Red Devil had taken refuge in the Taishou of Blackwater City, and according to his analysis, the Red Devil should have gone to the Red Wood Spirit. Chimu Ling is the power of the Holy Clan, the Holy Clan intends to subvert Kyushu, the strongest forces above Kyushu are the inn and the imperial court, and these two are also their biggest resistance, the Red Devil has this question, it is likely that he is preparing for the Demon Clan's attack on Excalibur Peak in the future.

"The question ......"

"Why, it's okay if you don't want to answer, then you don't want to know the whereabouts of the identity jade plate, and let me tell you, your identity has not been revealed yet, but if someone is swaggering around with your identity jade card, this matter is not easy to say. The Red Devil said with his own clever persecution.

Li Xunlian saw that he was scheming, pretended to grit his teeth and made up his mind, and said: "Even if my identity is exposed, I can't tell you in too much detail, I can only tell you that the mountain protection array can kill any living creature within ten miles of Divine Sword Peak in an instant, and it has nothing to do with Xuan Xiu's cultivation." ”

The Red Demon Zi nodded when he heard this, he didn't expect Li Xunlian to be able to speak in detail, and it was quite useful to have such a general message.

"Let me ask again, where is the identity jade card now?" Li Xunlian asked directly, this is to mislead the Red Devil and make the other party feel that he is starting to use his scheming, otherwise it is easy to arouse suspicion by the Red Devil, after all, the Red Devil knows that Li Xunlian is not a fool.

"Haha, I don't care who killed Hong Yuzi, I don't care about the process, I jump directly to the result, as soon as you ask like this, isn't our conversation about to end soon?"

"Your sentence is a question, and it should be counted as a question. Li Xunlian also sneered.

Red Devil frowned, he couldn't imagine that Li Xunlian would play a scoundrel, "If you are sincere, don't play word games with Lao Tzu, the identity jade card is in the hands of a person who is extremely fast and kills invisibly, I only know this." Let me ask you, what is the relationship between Buddhism and Taoism?"

This time, he was quite tricky in answering or asking questions, and the inspiration for the answer came from the information he had obtained before, and there was only one person he knew who was extremely fast, and that was Huanfeng, and he asked this way to determine whether the suspicious person was Huanfeng by observing Li Xunlian's expression.

As for the question, the relationship between Buddhism and Taoism seems to be nonsensical, but it is where the wisdom lies. At present, the Taoist sect and the inn are in the same situation, and the relationship between the Buddha sect and the Taoist sect can indirectly prove what the relationship between the Buddha sect and the inn is.

According to Chi Mu Ling, the reason why they did not make a move on the inn for a long time was to take into account the inn's mountain protection array, and the other was to take into account the Buddha's side, now the Buddha Sect has not moved, and there is a kind of meaning of seclusion in troubled times, if the relationship between the Buddha Sect and the inn is very good, once the demon clan attacks the inn, the Buddha Sect will inevitably feel the pressure, so as to come to the rescue. Therefore, it is necessary to find out the relationship between Li Fozong and the inn.

The Red Devil knew the questions in the heart of the Chimu Spirit of these two things, so he took the opportunity to ask it today, he wanted to win the appreciation of the Chimu Spirit after he went back, but he never thought that from the beginning, he had fallen into Li Xunlian's calculations......
