The next day, Zheng Yan woke up in a daze, and found that there was no shadow of the girl next to him, he was stunned for a moment and thought about it a little worried, he must have explored the whereabouts of Wuleimen and Xiandumen, and he was very sleepy at the end of last night, and vaguely heard her say that this time he came to pick him up by the sixth uncle, thinking that the sixth uncle Zheng Yan was both relieved and worried, alas, no matter what, according to the original plan, he must pass through Bianbei City today.

The post messenger on night duty was sleeping soundly on the counter, and when Xingshuang left, he didn't know if he had changed the horse rental record, Zheng Yan woke up the post messenger softly, and got the horse card when the post messenger was confused, and asked if the kitchen had not opened yet, it seemed that he had to leave hungry, who knows who lives here, it's good to leave early.

Zheng Yan thought about the mess along the way, and always felt that something was wrong, according to the meaning of the old man who sacrificed wine, his physique was just like that, Wulei Gate should not offend the court for the will of a deacon sent down above, that Deng Nan should know the biggest truth of the court in the world no matter how brainy he is, the matter of Xiandumen was heard from Zheng Tong Ye Qingcheng, these two guys have been thinking about robbing a few handsome fairies as maids in the future, why is it robbed? Because it is said that the current Xiandumen is noble and arrogant, and rarely involves the world.

These two sects are both sects with families, mouths, and industries, and there is no reason to risk the death penalty to kidnap a prince! Since they have appeared now, it means that there must be other contents in them, and the old man who sacrificed wine did not say everything, and the grandfather mentioned a transaction, is it related to this transaction? The grandfather also said that it has nothing to do with him, and he is sad, and he really doesn't have enough brains, so he doesn't want to think about it.

I didn't pay attention to it just now, I went out and prepared to go on the road only to find that the fog around me was filled, and I couldn't see anything at a distance of seven or eight feet, Zheng Yan was a little helpless, it seems that I can't get out of the boundary of Bianbei City today, this kind of fog is difficult to disperse without half a day, but the road still has to go, after getting on the horse, I clamped the horse's belly, the horse seemed to hesitate, shook his neck and moved, and used small broken steps under Zheng Yan's urging, the speed was not slow, and it was convenient to stop in time.

Lu Yuntao's name is not cheesy, in fact, he is the only one in the family who knows a few big characters, his father is a miner, his mother farms at home, the boundaries of Bianbei City are all military registrations, and they are all members of the Xuanwu Army for generations, advocating force and family and country, and they are not very good at reading, there is a school set up by the military government in the village, most children go to study for a year or two at the age of seven or eight and drop out of school when they can work in the field, Lu Yuntao reads to the age of twelve, not because he is studious, because no one can take care of being naughty and mischievous, and only Mr. Ye in the school can barely listen to what he says.

The people here are still martial, but it doesn't mean that they don't respect the readers, the scholars have a high status after all, and they have to worry about Mr. Xuetang to choose their names, read and write letters, and the names of the young people and children in the village, including Lu Yuntao, are all obtained by Mr. Ye. At that time, Mr. Ye took the name "Yuntao" when he saw the child's crying loudly, hoping that he would be able to get out of the pit where his father had worked for generations and ascend to the clouds in the future.

The name really needs to be paid attention to, Lu Yuntao is almost influenced by his own name, and he always thinks that one day he will cultivate a peerless supernatural power to travel the world.

With my sister marrying a childhood sweetheart in a neighboring village, the two younger brothers can help their mother work in the fields, and the younger sister can make soy sauce, when he was sixteen years old, Lu Yuntao left a crooked letter and ran away from home, saying that he was going to learn art from a teacher, and he sent a letter to his family when he settled down, so that everyone should not worry, a large family of people is old and young, and they all rely on the husband and wife to support him and have no time to find him, so they can only report to the government and let him go, not to mention that there are many children in the village who are sixteen or seventeen years old and do not want to join the army immediately.

Lu Yuntao walked south on the main road, and once heard the storyteller of the village talk about how prosperous the south is, there are many sects, and there are many opportunities, so he has long thought about going south, and he walked with confidence for five days and was arrested into the black mine to become a mining slave!

After all, it was taken for granted, because of poor thinking, I only brought two days of dry food and a firewood knife when I went out, and I didn't bring a penny, thinking about hunting and picking on the road, or finding some work, but I began to be hungry after two days, and I couldn't talk about digging wild vegetables and picking wild fruits, let alone hunting.

Five days later, I saw a few brightly dressed middle-aged people at a post station, saying that they were recruiting team mates, going south and north at ease, and after getting the assurance of going to the south, Lu Yuntao drew a charge, a contract is dozens of words, and there is too much room for interpretation. Seven or eight men were taken off the road to a place of unknown origin, where they were given a place to live, ate a meal of meat buns, and the next day went down to the mine.

Because it is a stealing excavation, the mine road is simple and there is not even the most basic "living room", only some iron and wood support, two landslides and water leaks in three days, Lu Yuntao and several people have tried to escape, but they have not succeeded, the price is tragic, the methods of torture by the supervisors are more powerful than the legendary military prison, those who were deceived and caught earlier persuaded them not to run, there are people patrolling with hunting dogs for twelve hours around, and there are formations arranged by masters in the woodland mounds and ditches, and they can't get out at all, and there are ghosts "ghosts hitting the wall" at night After all, there are a lot of dead people, and they are afraid that the living will run away without a companion.

Lu Yuntao unknowingly stayed here for more than a year, but he was injured a few times in the collapse, fortunately he didn't hurt his muscles and bones, and he gradually stopped the idea of escaping, at least better than others, and he stayed in peace with such a strange psychology, even if he was beaten and scolded on weekdays, he didn't feel anything, and he became more and more hardworking and resentful, although he felt strange in his heart, he shouldn't be like this!

In the middle of the night, I was dazed and thirsty, groping to get up and find some water to drink, and found that the clay pot on the table had already been drunk, and the water in the water tank at the door was inexplicably gone.

Just out of the door and stepped into the fog, approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, the night was already a lot cooler, coupled with the fog, Lu Yuntao finally came to his senses, it had been raining for the first two days, and there was nothing strange about the fog, I was somehow thirsty, and the desire to drink water became stronger and stronger, I couldn't see the road under my feet, squinted and felt like this towards the kitchen, I didn't notice that the fog around me was constantly changing shapes, it was a skeleton for a while, a human shape for a while, and a few tigers and snakes gushed out for a while.

Walking and walking, I vaguely felt that there was a voice in the kitchen, but when I really walked to the kitchen, I found that the voice was still not far in front, so I stumbled and followed the voice all the way, and I didn't pay attention to crossing a small ditch that emitted a faint black gas, and the black gas seemed to be getting more and more sparse.

Zheng Yan walked out of the post station and went north, estimating that the time should already be high in the sun, but the fog became thicker and thicker, and after walking for a while, some flying fairies actually appeared in the fog from time to time, light blue dresses, curvaceous posture, delicate and unearthly gas, dancing in the fog, up and down, far and near, close to exhaling like an orchid, and the song and dance banquet held in the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve every year is actually comparable.

Gong E of the harem, the dancing girl and singer of the Teaching Workshop Division, can also achieve such an effect with the assistance of some special formations, whether it is a dancer or an artistic conception under the transformation of light and shadow, mysterious and melodious, Xuan Bing and Shu Yuan among the four beauties of the Teaching Workshop Division are the most famous in dance, and there are countless followers, but Zheng Yan has not seen it much, and he has never been to the Teaching Workshop Division, and he will definitely not see it again this year, hey, what do you think about this!

The changes in the mist were obviously deliberately done by someone, Zheng Yan reined in his mind and sniffed lightly first, there was indeed some fragrance, there was a fat powder fragrance, and a woman's body fragrance, so he grew up with Yingyue Xinluo, and was instilled by Ye Qingcheng with all kinds of strange things about the "fragrant girl", Zheng Yan quickly roughly judged that there were indeed people nearby, it wouldn't be Xiandumen, right? Thinking in his heart, Le Ma stopped, he had already grasped the hilt of the sword with one hand, his whole body tensed, and he seemed to be constantly caressing his skin under the suppression, and his heart was hairy, as if there was a woman whispering in his ear.

"Little brother, do you have any magic weapon on you? Why can't my sister see you? Take it off and talk to my sister for a while."

The voice was soft and charming, and it seemed to be full of grievances, Zheng Yan frowned, quietly dismounted, tightened the package tied on his chest, pinched the horse's buttocks, the horse was in pain, sneezed and walked a few steps forward, and suddenly two white ribbons shot above the horse's back, Zheng Yan took out the sword like a rainbow, followed the direction of the ribbon and went straight forward, and when he felt something in front of him, his wrist shook and instantly twisted out a sword flower.

With the sound of cutting silk with a sharp blade, a woman snorted softly, feeling the strength from the tip of the sword, Zheng Yan retreated to the horse's side, and picked up a piece of white yarn on the tip of the sword, not an ordinary material, and the texture was also a little special, without hesitation, while guarding the yarn into his arms, he slowly squatted down on the side of the road and picked up a palm-sized stone, and threw it out with skill, the stone rolled out somewhat exaggeratedly, and two light blue ribbons shot over, Zheng Yan repeated the old trick again, and the sound of silk cracking and the woman exclaimed.

Naturally, there is no magic weapon for concealing the aura on his body, it should be the small prohibition under the star frost last night, Xinluo actually has such a means, and yes, the six divisions of the Zongren Mansion originally had people who developed magic techniques, then again, I wanted to ask last night, when was the relationship between the two of them so good? No, this time shouldn't be the time to think about this!

Zheng Yan couldn't help but feel ashamed of his divergent spiritual power, it seemed that it was easy to automatically divert his attention, no, the current situation is that both sides are in the dark, and it is not a matter of stalemate like this, get on the horse and speed up and rush out? What should I do if I bump into an innocent person? I had encountered a few cars before, but none of them were running, or let them catch them, but I wanted to see what kind of fairy of Xiandumen that Zheng Tong and them were missing, phew, no, it was to figure out why they came, yes, that's it.

"Sisters, I didn't hurt you, did I? I thought I was attacked, I was too nervous just now...",

After waiting for a long time and no response, it wouldn't be leaving, right? Zheng Yan was a little depressed, he shouldn't have hurt anyone just now, he actually retreated like this, he was really cautious, so he had no choice but to get on the horse again and continue to hurry.

After walking for a while, I suddenly realized that something was wrong, I don't know when I had gotten off the post road, and walked to a grassy beach, the grass is not high, the ground is very flat, and there are some yellow, white, purple and unknown small flowers, which look really cute, Zheng Yan got off the horse and squatted on the ground and looked happily, as if he didn't pay attention to the red silk with gold rim that was slowly approaching from both directions, seeing that the red silk was about to catch Zheng Yan's body, and suddenly stumbled out of the dense fog in front of him.

"Zheng Yan be careful",

"Lu Yuntao?!",

Hong Aya retreated and disappeared in an instant, Zheng Yan was a little helpless, got up and supported Lu Yuntao with a tired face,

"Didn't you pay attention to the two red snakes just now? What is there to look at wildflowers", Lu Yuntao said with some complaints,

Zheng Yan soon had some doubts on his face, did not answer Lu Yuntao's question, and asked while looking, "Why are you here?" I thought you joined the army, but I am afraid that I will not see you this time, why is my body uncomfortable?",

Lu Yuntao waved his hand and said, "I didn't join the army... Hurry, run, why are you here?!Quick, don't ask...",

Zheng Yan was even more strange, pulling the young man who suddenly became panicked again, and asked in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on? Where is such a big fog going?

Lu Yuntao glanced at the fog around him, and also felt that his fear was very unsettled, so he had to suppress the strange feeling in his heart and tell Zheng Yan about his experience in the past year.

Zheng Yan knew Lu Yuntao or followed his grandfather to visit Ye Qianzhi who was teaching in their Lujia Yingzi School, Ye Qianzhi was half of his grandfather's student, and also a distant cousin of Ye Qingcheng, naturally he was also a member of the Ye family, originally with these two conditions, how could he not teach Mengtong to read and write in the countryside, but Ye Qianzhi was casual and comfortable, and he never cared about his natural ability, where he was comfortable, and he stayed where he was comfortable, probably more than ten years ago, he traveled around and walked to the Lu family camp where Lu Yuntao lived, and he lived there because he liked the comfort there, and found a teaching errand, naturally got to know Lu Yuntao, who was often punished for being naughty.

After listening to Lu Yuntao's narration, Zheng Yan asked a few more doubts, and after thinking about it, he made a rough judgment, the black mine was indeed arranged by someone, and the people who died before should also be raised as ghost slaves, Lu Yuntao's spirit was still imprisoned in the mine, this is also his so stubborn and resolute person who would be a mine slave to others with peace of mind, and there are five thunder gates and Xiandu gates to the north, and he can't go to the Bianbei City General's Mansion.

Thinking of this, Zheng Yan said in a deep voice: "After a while, the fog is a little lighter, you have to take me back to find the mine, your spirit is still there, not to mention cultivation, even normal life in the future will have an impact, first of all, your mind, now you think back to the situation you have seen along the way, and then draw a map of the mine",

Lu Yuntao was finally a little scared by what Zheng Yan said, and began to draw a map of the mine on the ground, Zheng Yan looked at it carefully while putting aside the relationship between this black mine and the Xiandu Gate of the Five Thunder Gates, it should be the officers in the Xuanwu Army who colluded with outsiders to dig and mine privately, judging from the performance of the formation of the trapping miners, it should be a ghost way method, this is difficult to distinguish between the source and the sect, for a long time, the ghost road has almost been spread in the world as a form of loose cultivation, and the outsiders who participated in it may be a local sect or a family of cultivators in addition to officers and businessmen, and I don't know how many monks from the Xiandu Gate nearby, whether they were led out firstOr a gobble-up?

The fog began to change violently again, Zheng Yan pulled out the dagger and dug a pit, first buried the package and a dagger in it, covered the soil and untied the saddle and put it aside, cut the reins and only left the horse halter to drive the horse away, if no one cares, he should be able to return to the post station, this time he actually returned the horse card ghost to the post station, it seems that this horse is going to pay for the family, and then quietly hid the dagger in his hand on Lu Yuntao, everything was ready and Lu Yuntao began to grope back to the mine, Lu Yuntao said that he almost remembered the way.

One by one, flying fairies wearing blue, gray, pink, and purple palace clothes floated in front of him, Lu Yuntao didn't notice anything, Zheng Yan looked already a little numb, and suddenly noticed the three clusters of red flames on Lu Yuntao's shoulders and above his head, the six cyan flames gathered in his heart, three souls and six spirits?!

I haven't cultivated the eye of heaven! Can I know that Lu Yuntao is missing a soul just by looking at his spirit and his experience for more than a year, hey, it seems that he can see through the things behind the fog, is it really open to the eyes of heaven?

Zheng Yan suddenly stopped, looked at the direction on the left hand and had some doubts, hesitated for a moment and walked over slowly, Lu Yuntao stopped and looked at it suspiciously, wanted to make a sound, but was stopped by Zheng Yan raising his hand. Zheng Yan's eyes didn't seem to know where to look, standing in place and hesitating and puzzled, he suddenly moved, first punched in the direction of the left hand side, and then slid to raise his leg and raise his knees, and a woman in red had been pressed to the ground with her arms locked behind her back.

Lu Yuntao was dumbfounded, the woman on the ground had not come back to her senses, her face was stunned, Zheng Yan's movements were not as fast as ordinary martial arts cultivation, but very fast, first punched her lower abdomen and scattered the qi, a very wonderful technique, and then slid behind her to lock her arms, and at the same time hit a key acupoint on the woman's thigh with her knee, making the woman's whole person weak and powerless and could only be pushed down.

Zheng Yan tied the woman's hands and feet together with the reins, and sealed a few acupoints, but unfortunately he couldn't release the true yuan and couldn't ban her Qi Hai Huandan. He also found a delicate dagger from the woman, a red belt, and a red silk belt with gold edges, and after thinking about it, he tied the two belts into a dead knot before giving up, and almost felt that there was no hidden danger before he sneered and said,

"Let's talk about it, otherwise the two of us have a way to make you regret it",

The woman looked at Zheng Yan seriously, and after a while, she suddenly smiled, and said softly, "I have seen a lot of news about you before coming out this time, I know that you are more principled than many people, so naturally you will not do such dirty things, just ask whatever you want, anyway, you have been caught, what you can say will definitely be said, and what you can't say will not lie to you",

Zheng Yan smiled and said, "Sister Zhong Lingyuxiu, I want to have excellent talent and cultivation, if I find out that my sister is deceiving, well, I really won't do anything, but there is still no psychological burden to throw you to those who open the mines privately over there, in fact, I have this plan, let's talk about my life and age first."
