True to its name, the Valley of Chains in the breeze makes a "tinkling" sound from time to time, as if it has pushed open the door to the dark hell against the backdrop of the night, which makes people shudder.

Ruan Fei was pulled by Liu Peiqing, and only then did she gain some peace of mind. When they came to the place where Wan Shou and Cao Qiankai were once held, Ruan Fei and Liu Peiqing did not find any trace of anyone along the way.

"Could it be that Wanshou broke free from the chains by himself and then took Cao Qiankai away?" Ruan Fei guessed, "But what's going on with the clothes on Cao Qiankai's body?" ”

Liu Peiqing looked at the bare stone pillar in front of him, which was supposed to bind Cao Qiankai, but now Cao Qiankai had slipped away from him, and only the chains were still swaying in the wind.

"If it weren't for them kidnapping a certain elder halfway, then most of the clothes on Cao Qiankai's body were given by the people who let them go, the purpose is to prevent them from encountering us on the way to escape." Liu Peiqing said, he seemed to see something wrong somewhere on the chain, and after picking up Ruan Fei horizontally, he jumped on top of the stone pillar.

Ruan Fei curled up in Liu Peiqing's arms like this and jumped to a place where she could stay. Liu Peiqing went to the place he had just found and picked up a chain that was not easy to be found.

"The chains...... Broken? Ruan Fei leaned on Liu Peiqing's back and asked. Liu Peiqing nodded, put the chain in front of Ruan Fei and asked her, "Look at this gap, can you see anything?" ”

Ruan Fei stared at the place where the chain was broken and looked at it for a long time.

There are a lot of these chains, if they were all tied to Cao Qiankai's body at that time, just by untying this chain, Cao Qiankai should not escape intact. Besides, Ruan Fei felt that the most puzzled thing was that after Cao Qiankai was caught at that time, the weapon was taken away, but why could he still hold the head of a gun in his hand today?

And then there is the break in the chain...... How do you feel that it is not cut by something, it is not the kind of trace that has been repeatedly chopped by someone, but more like ......

Ruan Fei stared at the gap in the chain for a long time before reacting: "This chain!" What was it split!? ”

"Well, do you think so, too?" Liu Peiqing nodded and said, "I thought the same thing when I saw this fracture just now, but I don't understand what this thing was split by." ”

"This ...... I feel a little familiar, and this familiar feeling should have happened not long ago......" Ruan Fei fell into deep thought, and suddenly, her eyes bloomed with brilliance, and she fell into Liu Peiqing's ear and said: "Isn't this the thunder guidance technique used when I tried with you in the first place!?" ”

Liu Peiqing was puzzled: "I know the trick of guiding thunder, but isn't that supposed to be to draw thunder down from the sky, it stands to reason that there should be a lot of movement." Ruan Fei laughed: "If it is according to the kind of practice before Zhu Gong, the movement will indeed be very big." But you forget, it's night. ”

"At that time, Zhu Ku was in a moonlit place when I competed with you, but look here, there are so many stone pillars here, and it is a relatively narrow valley, and there are so many chains around, even if there is any explosion here, no one will care very much, right?"

After listening to Ruan Fei's analysis, Liu Peiqing thought it was very reasonable, and he asked Ruan Fei again: "What happened to the clothes on Cao Qiankai's body?" Ruan Fei took out the fabric that she had torn off Cao Qiankai just now, and said to Liu Peiqing: "If we don't find the victim later, then this piece of fabric should be Zhu Ku's own." ”

Liu Peiqing was stunned and asked Ruan Fei: "But if this fabric is really bitter, how do you prove it?" ”

Ruan Fei smiled slightly, and the corners of her mouth hooked upward: "This...... It's actually quite simple. Ruan Fei brought the fabric to Liu Peiqing and said to Liu Peiqing: "Look at this piece of fabric, it should have been torn off from the kind of clothes that have been worn many times, which shows that the owner of this dress must have worn him often." If you want to start from this aspect, you have to find out from above what method its owner usually uses to clean him. ”

But Liu Peiqing looked at this fabric for a long time, except that it was relatively old from above, and she really couldn't see anything else unusual.

Ruan Fei also took a closer look at this piece of fabric, as if it was really as Liu Peiqing said, and she couldn't see anything unusual.

"Am I wrong? That shouldn't be, it should be a clue. Ruan Fei scratched her head, and Liu Peiqing asked her: "Since becoming monks, it seems that we haven't washed our clothes for a long time, and we usually use aura to remove dust from our clothes." ”

"But I wish you well, if you cultivate well, you also have the height of the earth character level, and you shouldn't even know this."

Ruan Fei pondered for a moment, her mind was a little unturned, and she said, "Is this piece of fabric really not bitter?" ”

"Let's go somewhere else first, and then sort out our thoughts carefully when we get back." Liu Peiqing said, and then jumped off the stone pillar with Ruan Fei in her arms. Ruan Fei's eyes flickered behind the stone pillar, and she suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Ah Qing! Let's go check out this back! ”

Coming to the back of the stone pillar, Ruan Fei's idea just now was confirmed.

"I'll just say you can't just break one chain, it turns out that there is such a strange thing in this." Ruan Fei said proudly.

In front of Ruan Fei and Liu Peiqing were all the chains that had been broken. It's just that the broken chains are all deliberately hidden behind the stone pillars. Liu Peiqing frowned and said, "It seems that when they escaped, they weren't worried that someone would come over, and there was still plenty of time." ”

"That's right, it really looks premeditated." Ruan Fei's face showed excitement that could not be hidden, and she asked Liu Peiqing: "Isn't this place usually guarded?" ”

Liu Peiqing shook her head and replied, "This place was originally built to hold prisoners, and the chains here are quite strong, if the prisoners can escape from the stone pillars, ordinary people can't stop them at all. ”

Ruan Fei frowned: "Is the Tayun Academy so unrigorous?" "I can't believe it, is this really an academy created by grandpa?

In this regard, Liu Peiqing also expressed helplessness: "After all, we are only entrusted by others, and Senior An is not here now, and those elders don't want us to participate in this kind of thing." ”

"What a bunch of pig brains." Ruan Fei said hatefully.

Walk to the other end of the Valley of Chains, where Ten Thousand Hands are held. At that time, Haoqing separated the two of them so far away in order to prevent the two of them from colluding to escape from prison, but unfortunately there was a problem within the academy, even if they were imprisoned anywhere, that person had the ability to bring these two people together.

This place is similar to the place where Cao Qiankai was held, and even the way in which the chains are hidden is exactly the same. Ruan Fei and Liu Peiqing looked here, and in the end they were disappointed.

"But there are still happy things, after all, we walked around and didn't find anyone killed~" Ruan Fei said with a smile.

Just as Ruan Fei and the others were about to take a detour back, before they could go far, Liu Peiqing heard a cry for help from the wind. Following the sound, I walked over and saw that in the middle of the stone pillar, there was really a naked person lying on the ground.

It may have been abandoned here for a while, and the man's face was abnormally blue, and his lips were purple from the cold, and he shivered.

Hearing that someone seemed to be coming, that person hurriedly used all his strength to shout for help, and when Liu Peiqing walked over, his first reaction was not to save people, but to cover Ruan Fei's eyes.

Ruan Fei followed behind Liu Peiqing, and before she could see clearly who the person in front of her was, her eyes were covered by a big dry hand.

"What's wrong?" Ruan Fei asked, "Is there a person in front?" I haven't seen it yet! Ruan Fei reached out and touched Liu Peiqing's palm, wanting to remove Liu Peiqing's hand from her eyes. Liu Peiqing lowered her voice and said in Ruan Fei's ear, "Don't look." ”

At this time, Ruan Fei was even more puzzled, and she asked Liu Peiqing: "Could it be a very bloody picture?" It's okay, I'm not going to be afraid. Liu Peiqing was very suspicious and did not answer immediately, and after being silent for a while, Liu Peiqing stammered: "That person's clothes ...... It should have been picked up by Cao Qiankai, don't look at it. ”

"Huh? Oooh! Ruan Fei reacted, it turned out that Liu Peiqing was jealous." It's okay, if you don't let me see it, I won't watch it, I'll turn around, you go and save him. ”

"Hmm." After Ruan Fei turned around obediently, Liu Peiqing took off her coat with confidence and walked over to cover the man.

The man had been lying on the ground for a long time, and when he heard someone coming, he thought he could be rescued immediately, but he didn't expect that he still waited in place for a long time before waiting for a thin coat.

Liu Peiqing helped the man up, but before the man had time to thank him, he raised his eyes and saw that his open mouth did not move.

"It's you!?" There was surprise and trepidation in the man's tone. After Liu Peiqing confirmed that the most serious thing on his body was frostbite, and everything else was fine, he asked him to put on his clothes, and then called Ruan Fei: "Miss, you can turn around." ”

"Okay~" After Ruan Fei turned around, she found that this person looked so familiar, as if it was a certain elder who had introduced himself in the Linlang Treasure Hall before.

Under Ruan Fei's inquiring gaze, the elder once again reported to his family: "I am the elder of the academy, you can call me Fang Peng." ”

"Oh~ It turned out to be Elder Fang Peng." Ruan Fei respectfully saluted Fang Peng, but her eyes kept on Liu Peiqing's body.

Liu Peiqing lent his coat to Fang Peng at this time, he was now only wearing a thin white lining, and the texture of the muscles in his upper body was faintly visible through the white lining. Ruan Fei felt that her brain was a little hot, and her face was a little hot.

Fortunately, it was night, and Ruan Fei's face was covered by the shadow of the stone pillar, otherwise Liu Peiqing might have made Ruan Fei turn around again and ask for the coat he had put on Fang Peng's body back.

"Miss, the temperature here is too low, which is not conducive to Fang Peng's recovery, can you light a fire?" Liu Peiqing called Ruan Fei over, mainly to let Ruan Fei help Fang Peng warm up. Fang Peng didn't care that Liu Peiqing didn't use honorifics for himself, but called him by his name, he still knew how many catties and taels he had.

But Ruan Fei is still a student of the academy, even if she has learned to use aura lighting, but lighting and heating with an open flame are two different things.

Fang Peng thought like this, and there was still some disdain in his heart. For monks born in a big family like Ruan Fei, people in the rivers and lakes generally have two attitudes - one is to do everything possible to trade with them and then profit from it, and the other is like Fang Peng and the Jiang family sisters, who are disdainful and sarcastic towards the descendants of the big family.

Fang Peng's thoughts about Ruan Fei didn't stop abruptly until Ruan Fei was in front of him, and a flame burst out with a "boom-" sound.

"You...... You are a fire attribute aura!? Fang Peng exclaimed, Ruan Fei looked puzzled: "Is there any problem?" ”
