Pedestrians were so busy in the crowded market that no one noticed a bird less than two fingers in size flying overhead like a sharp arrow.

Standing on the small valley on the side outside the closed gate of the Demon City, Bai Tang closed his eyes and spread out the system map.

On the map, small blue dots representing tracking birds are constantly flashing, moving in a certain direction.

After about half an hour, the tracking bird slowed down, passed through a dense forest, came to a red stone tower, seemed to hover a little confused for a while, and then burrowed through a gap in the stone tower.

The bird's pupils flickered mechanically, and Bai Tang clearly took in all the scenes in the stone tower through the camera function.

According to the location and the guards who came here all the way, if she guessed correctly, this should be a more important forbidden place in the Demon Palace.

The stone tower is very open, like a large hall, and above it is a ten-square dome, which is also red as the background color, but some patterns are depicted with black paint, which looks a bit like a more abstract portrait pattern.

Directly under the dome is a ten-square platform of the same diameter as the dome.

The ten corners of the platform are installed with black lamps containing orbs, and the orbs are cut into a corner, and the inside is hollow, and the lamp oil and wick are placed, and the fire is lit at this time.

Outside of the first time, there was nothing else on the platform, but some patterns similar to the Dome Gang were drawn, but there were more lines, which looked more like formations and the like, and there were also some black and red round beads inlaid regularly.

These beads are not unfamiliar, they are the hearts of the demon kings of Nanman.

In the center of the platform is a red circle with a diameter of about two meters, with black variegated on the top, which should also be cut from a whole piece of Nanman Demon King's heart.

She used her mental power to drive the tracking bird to check and found some traces, guessing that this platform was probably a platform used for meditation and practice.

There was nothing around except the platform, except that the walls were inlaid with black dragons holding lamps.

And she found that there were always some sword marks on the walls or pillars, some of which looked old, and some of which looked relatively new, which confirmed her previous suspicions.

But also because this place was too obvious, she couldn't help but wrinkle, and withdrew the mental power to control the tracking bird, allowing it to continue to act according to its instincts.

As soon as the tracking bird is free, it does not move purposefully as before, but keeps moving around the room, as if the person it is looking for is here, but may be hiding somewhere where the tracking bird cannot reach.

As soon as her heart moved, she immediately strengthened her mental strength, and began to carefully observe the surroundings by operating the tracking bird.

Soon, she found a clue.

On the stone seat of the heart of the Nanman Demon King in the middle of the ten-square platform, there are subtle traces of stitching.

She carefully identified the marks and drew them, finally arriving at the outline of a pattern.

Looking at the pattern drawn by the branches on the ground, her eyes flickered, and she turned her hand and took out a black sign from the system package, which was the Heavenly Demon Order left by Wei Jiuli.

Upon careful comparison, the Heavenly Demon Order is very similar to the outline drawn.

She guessed that this Heavenly Demon Order might be the key to open a certain door, and Wei Jiuli might be hiding somewhere in the stone tower.

It's just that she's not there, and she can only identify objects by tracking birds, and she can't use the system to conduct deep scanning, so it seems that she still has to go in.

In the inn, Bai Zhi, who had been wandering around outside the door, saw her come back, her frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and a smile finally appeared on her face, and she hurriedly greeted her, "Master, you are back." ”

Some white hooves lazily leaning against the wall also came over.

Bai Tang nodded to the two of them, motioned for them to follow, and then walked towards the room.

The inn is becoming more and more chaotic these days, and now many of the guests here are not only people from the Demon Domain, but also many other martial arts sects who come to secretly inquire about the news.

Therefore, everyone is always vigilant and stares at others with scrutiny and suspicion.

When the three of them walked to the room, they were not surprised to notice that there was a small tail behind them.

Entering the house, the three of them sat down one after another, poured tea, and after a while, Bai Hu snapped his fingers.

The person who was just touching it, carefully squatting on the door to listen to the corner of the wall, was suddenly frightened by something shooting out of the door, and the whole person fell backwards, but fortunately he covered his mouth in time and did not scream.

But the other party's move also shows that he has been discovered.

He was also a spirit, and he didn't dare to try to challenge the patience of the people inside, so he hurriedly ran away.

And some people who are watching in secret also label them as not easy to mess with.

Because what was just shot out was not a weapon, but a bamboo stick with a wick.

The bamboo sticks pass directly through the door, are tied to the wall, and enter the wood for three points.

Such a skill, at least half of the people here are not enough.

Bai Tang didn't open his mouth for the time being, but spread out rice paper on the table and began to draw a topographic map.

She drew a topographical map and a structural map of the Demon Palace, but for the time being, she could only draw a clear picture of the area where the tracking birds flew over a hundred miles.

The rest of the convenience can only scan a rough outline.

But that's enough, after all, their purpose is where Wei Jiuli is.

She didn't say that she had found Wei Jiuli's traces, only that she wanted to go to this place to find clues.

According to speculation, if this stone pagoda is indeed a place for practice, it should be the place where the previous Demon Palace Palace masters practiced and retreated.

According to rumors, the Demon Palace Palace Master failed to break through and went mad, and then began to kill people on a large scale, and the Four Saints rushed over to stop it after being notified.

In other words, the stone tower was not the place where they fought, and she really didn't see any signs of multi-sided battles there.

After that, she let the tracer bird on the periphery of the stone tower, and then found that the stone tower seemed to need the Heavenly Demon Order to open, and the Demon Palace had a rule that only the Demon Palace Palace Master could enter the stone tower.

She also found some other traces outside, it should be the idea of the Four Saints to enter, but they couldn't enter without a key, and they couldn't be destroyed directly.

After all, the martial arts room built here with a special method and the heart of the Nanman Demon King is not much lower than the Tianqu Sword, and the Four Saints are reluctant to destroy it.

Now for her, the advantage is that the stone tower is still safe, and the disadvantage is that because the four saints can't find the Tianqu Sword and the Heavenly Demon Order, they think that these two things may be hidden in the stone tower.

But Bai Tang couldn't figure it out at all, Wei Jiu left both things to her, so how did he get into the stone tower?

Or is there a second way to pass it?

Bai Hu and Bai Zhi didn't ask her why she knew the terrain here and why she went there.

But when she marked the place, the white bird immediately confirmed her suspicion.

"This is the Demon King Tower, it is the forbidden land of the Demon Palace, only the palace master can enter, in the past, there would be tower guards around the Demon King Tower, but it is estimated that the people of the Four Saints have been moved recently, and now there should be people from the Four Saints." White Bird Road.

He was also surprised by the topographical map and structural map drawn by Bai Tang.

Even if he had obtained the topographical map and structural map provided by the Lord, and there were people arranged by them in it, he could not be as detailed as Bai Tang, and even marked where there were people guarding and where there would be patrols.

An unclear hint flashed in his eyes, but he didn't show it.

Bai Tang nodded and said, "Is there a way to sneak in?" ”

There are masters on the periphery of the demon city, once they use their internal force to sneak in, they will definitely be tricked, but without using internal force, they can't come and go at will under their noses.

If it is disguised, anyone who enters must get a sign and ascend the throne, which is also easy to expose, because if outsiders are not invited by the people in the city, they can enter on the side of some big people, and their indiscriminate use of identity is easy to detect.

In the end, they came up with a more risky solution.

Bai Tang and Bai Hu asked Bai Hu to scan and enter the smell of an informant's belongings, and then asked Bai Hu to write a note, which was sent in by the tracking bird, and asked the other party to find a way to send a brand.

Bai Hu was a little curious about Bai Tang's bird, which seemed to have the same attributes as dogs, but he also knew that the Wind White Bellied Messenger currently used in the royal family was related to Bai Tang, so there was no difference.

Bai Hu thought about it, and then wrote a note, the content of which Bai Tang and Bai Zhi did not understand, according to his words, it was a kind of code word for the transmission of news between them, only they themselves knew, and the specific content was translated, that is, he wanted to find a way to take three brands and send them.

Bai Tang planned to go in by herself, but Bai Hu couldn't let her go alone, even if she knew that the other party's martial arts might be above her, after all, the Lord had ordered before leaving, no matter what happened, everything was in her safety first.

As for Bai Zhi, he knew better that if the two of them went in, it would be even more impossible for her to stay outside obediently, so that this girl would sneak in by herself, it would be more dangerous.

Just as they were trying to get in touch with the people inside, the next morning, news came out of the Demon City.

"Three days later, a ring match will be held in the Demon Palace, and the acting palace master will be elected, temporarily replacing the palace master of the Demon Palace, and handling the affairs in the Demon Palace."

"Doesn't it mean that three of the Four Holy Venerables have lost their combat effectiveness? Is this still more than that? ”

"Who knows, maybe it's just an excuse made by Venerable Suzaku, and it always needs to be justified."

"It makes sense to say that, but are the other three willing to agree, isn't this equivalent to abstaining?"

"What can you do if you don't agree, who made those three Venerables have no strength to fight."

"It's really a competition between the snipe and the clam and the fisherman profits."

"Who said no, this Vermilion Bird Venerable really doesn't accept the name of the cunning fox."

"Shhhh

"Snort, what are you afraid of, now everyone says so, if you dare to do it, you are not afraid of people saying it, he can't kill everyone."

The people bustling in the inn were almost all talking about the news they learned today.

At present, no one can be sure whether this news is true, but it should not be groundless.

The next night, Bai Tang got up and opened the window, and the tracking bird flew in, holding a small purse in his mouth, and inside the purse were three black wooden plaques two fingers wide and half a finger long, and there was only a red magic word engraved on it.

There was also a note in the purse.

Bai Tang went directly to Bai Hu.

Bai Hu looked at the contents of the note, and then a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"The Demon Palace does have to hold a ring match, and because of the imbalance of the four saints' confrontation forces, there is a suspicion, under the operation of the other three, there is no restriction on the ring match, no matter whether it is life or death, as long as the person who can fight to the end will become the winner."

Bai Tang immediately understood what Bai Hu meant, the more lively and grand the ring match, the better, just to attract most of the attention, and it was more convenient for them to take advantage of the chaos to enter.

With the jade plaque, the three of them changed their attire, changed their appearances, and then passed through the city gate separately, entered the inner city, and then met in one place.

On the periphery of the Demon City are mostly some low-level Demon Palace disciples, these people are like the outer disciples in the sect, who assist in taking care of the sect's industry and integrating resources.

However, due to the recent turmoil in the Demon Palace, many shops here have closed, and it seems a bit depressed.

The three of them met and walked to the inner city.

At present, the Demon Palace is really in the ring, so there are more people who want to enter the inner city, so the three of them have not attracted much attention.

With the sign, the three of them entered the inner city smoothly, but they did not follow the direction of the crowd, but followed the route set before.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages of being too many people at present, that is, acting too special will make people more suspicious.

So they could only find a restaurant to live in temporarily, and wait for the ring match to start and attract everyone's attention before acting.

The ring match was two days later, probably because things were too sudden, the time was too rushed, there was no buffer period, and the Four Holy Families had a faint tendency to turn against each other recently, so the collision was inevitable.

Turmoil can be seen everywhere every day, most of them are battles between disciples within the Demon Palace, and there are even several deaths.

It's just that the people in the Demon City are not surprised by this, even if they are outsiders, some people just show their disapproval, but they don't interfere at will.

Today, there was also a brawl in the restaurant where Bai Tang and the others lived, but it was not a member of the Four Holy Families, but a quarrel between the affiliated forces of the Four Holy Families and another force in the Demon Palace, and then the war was about to break out.

The restaurant is the property of the White Tiger family, and the subordinate force in the brawl is attached to the Suzaku family.

Now the rest of the three holy families hate the head of the Suzaku family very much, and they all feel that they were calculated by Suzaku before, but now that the wood is in the boat, they can't say anything about their suffering, but they are not willing to give away the benefits in vain.

Therefore, the people in the restaurant took the opportunity to kill people with a knife, leading the two sides to have a dispute, and then after the battle reached a certain situation, they came forward to directly kill the people on Suzaku's side.

As a result, it didn't take long for a faction on the side of the Suzaku family to come to the door.

Sure that he will already be a member of the 'royal family', the people of the Suzaku faction have indeed been a little arrogant and excessive recently, the people above are not restrained, and the people below are even more unscrupulous, provoking hatred everywhere and causing trouble.

The two sides quarreled again, and then fought again, which provoked the descendants of the White Tiger family.

At present, the Quartet forces, Xuanwu and Qinglong are all known to have lost their ability to compete, but the White Tiger Venerable has been in retreat, and no one knows his specific situation now, so the people of the White Tiger faction still have a trace of expectations, so they are the most unwilling to be on the throne of Suzaku, and they are the people who are not afraid of them.

The person who came to preside over the scene of the White Tiger directly beheaded the leader of the Suzaku side. Take a look at the latest chapter of "NPC in Ancient Times: Love at Doctor's Sight, Rely on Your Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
