In the lobby of the inn, there are several tables of guests sitting in twos and threes.

In the corner, two men sit.

"Have you heard, Sun Yangwen, the young sect master of the Earth Spirit Sect, was killed. The man against the wall whispered to the man across from him.

"What, where did he die?" said one of them, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Huangyun Mountain. ”

"Who is so bold as to dare to touch him. How did he die?"

"Didn't Huang Yunshan find out a few days ago that there was a Xuanling Grass that was about to mature, which attracted many scattered cultivators to compete for it. That Sun Yangwen happened to be nearby, and after hearing the news, he also rushed to Huangyun Mountain, and after arriving, he drove away all the scattered cultivators on the mountain, and asked the entourage to block the way up the mountain. As a result, the disciples who guarded the mountain were all slaughtered, and Sun Yangwen and an elder of the Earth Spirit Sect also died on the top of the mountain. ”

Another said, "Are those loose cultivators doing it?"

The man leaning against the wall said: "I don't know. This thing is very strange, several disciples guarding the mountain were killed by a blunt blow to the head, the elder of the Earth Spirit Sect was trampled on and broke his neck, and Sun Yangwen was killed by a sword piercing the heart, it seems that the strength of the murderer is much higher than that of the Earth Spirit Sect, but why would he have such a big enmity with the Earth Spirit Sect for the sake of a spirit grass that was only used during the foundation building period? Although the Earth Spirit Sect does not have many masters, the alchemy technology is the top in the Zhou Kingdom, and it has connections with many powerful sects. ”

Another said: "It's good that Sun Yangwen guy is dead, so that he doesn't have to be a threat everywhere again, maybe this time it's the person he offended before who is seeking revenge." However, with the personality of the Earth Spirit Sect Master's calf protector, his own son was slaughtered this time, and I am afraid that he will find out the murderer by digging three feet into the ground. ”

The man against the wall said: "I just came up from the south, don't you know, that old guy is crazy, he arrested all the scattered cultivators near Huangyun Mountain, and even killed two, just to find clues to the murderer." ”

"Did you find a clue?"

The man shook his head: "How can it be so easy. ”

On the other side of the lobby, the three of Kou Shan looked at each other.

"Ling Li, we won't be discovered. Han Qingling said with some worry.

Ling Li coughed lightly and said, "Don't worry, the teleportation array will be opened tomorrow, and when we get to Zhongzhou, that old guy won't be able to find us even if he turns the ground over." ”

On the morning of the second day, in the north of Jizhou City, the teleportation array.

This is a huge gray stone platform with a diameter of 100 zhang, and the stone platform is carved with complex array patterns, exuding an ancient atmosphere.

At this time, there were already dozens of people waiting by the teleportation array, waiting for the large array to open.

This large array was controlled by the royal family of the Zhou Kingdom, and each cultivator only needed to pay one spiritual treasure with spiritual power to obtain the qualification to enter.

On the way to Jizhou City, the three of them encountered several waves of robbery and scattered cultivation, but they were all subdued by Kou Shan and robbed of their things, so they also obtained a few treasures with a little spiritual power, which were just used as travel expenses.

At this time, there were already several people from the Jizhou City Government guarding the big array, and the three of them handed over the spirit treasure and waited for the big array to open.

Ling Li looked at the gray stone platform and said, "This ancient teleportation array is blended with a spirit gathering formation, and it can gather enough heaven and earth spiritual energy to activate it every other month. This big array consumes the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but the people who use the big array have to take out their own spiritual treasures, and the royal family of the Zhou Kingdom does not have to pay any price, and they can scavenge hundreds of spiritual treasures from here every year, which is really a lucrative business. In the future, I will also find a place to carve a long-distance formation that can automatically absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and then collect the road fee. ”

Kou Shan said: "I hope that your teleportation array will not teleport people to strange places by then." ”

Ling Li glared and said, "Are you finding fault, I will definitely be able to master the teleportation array pattern by then." ”

Half an hour later.

"It's coming. "There was humanity in the waiting crowd.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and at the end of the long street, a group of people was walking towards this side, a total of forty or fifty people, but they were obviously divided into two groups, one part was wearing a black official uniform, and the other part was wearing the disciple uniform of the Earth Spirit Sect.

At the head was an old man with a white beard, and the old man was accompanied by two people.

One is a middle-aged man about forty or fifty years old, with a cold expression, and the other is Kou Shan, who has seen all three of them, and it is Kong Chang, who is a loose cultivator.

As soon as Ling Li saw Kong Chang, he knew that the situation was not good, and the middle-aged man beside him was most likely the sect master of the Earth Spirit Sect. Whether Kong Chang was involuntarily killed after being arrested, or whether he took the initiative to go to the Earth Spirit Sect to provide information in order to be rewarded, in short, if he recognized him, the three of them would probably not be able to leave this place alive today.

She hurriedly whispered in the ears of Kou Shan and Han Qingling: "Let's get out of here quickly, it is very likely that the old man's side is the Sect Master of the Earth Spirit Sect." ”

Kou Shan and Han Qingling were shocked, and the three of them hurriedly retreated in the crowd.

Shielded by the crowd, the three managed to retreat into an alley behind.

"Ling Li, what should I do?" Han Qingling asked a little nervously.

"What else can I do, of course, hurry up, and when they find out that there are three fewer people, they will immediately search for us. It seems that Zhongzhou can't go, and the north is the Tiannan Mountain Range where demon beasts are entrenched, so I can only flee to the south and leave the Zhou State first. ”

Han Qingling nodded, sacrificed the flying sword, and stood up, Ling Li also stood up, hugged Han Qingling's waist tightly, squeezed forward, leaving a little space behind him, bit his lip, turned back to Kou Shan and said, "You also come up." ”

Kou Shan looked at the tip of the sword, which was only half a foot away, and jumped up, placing his hand on Ling Li's waist.

Ling Li's face was slightly red, and he thought to himself, at the moment of crisis, he could only let this wild man take advantage. If it weren't for the cold and light spirit fainting on the way, she wouldn't have stood in the middle.

A white rainbow flew out of the alley and headed south.

At the same time as the three of them left, at the teleportation array, the middle-aged man with a gloomy expression glanced at the cultivators beside the large array, and said coldly: "What, are there any three people in it?"

Kong Chang shook his head and said, "There are no three of them." ”

A look of disappointment flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes: "Aren't they going to flee to Zhongzhou?" If the other party is allowed to escape from the Zhou Kingdom, the Southern Regions are so big, I am afraid it will be difficult to find them again.

At this moment, the cultivators in the field walked towards the teleportation array one by one, and when everyone walked into the array, the young man in charge of collecting the spiritual objects sighed softly: "Why are there three people missing?"

"What?!" The middle-aged man's eyes burst into light, and he stepped in front of the man: "You said that there were three people missing from the formation." ”

The young man was startled by the flash of light in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he was speechless for a while.

"Say it quickly, or I'll kill you!" said the middle-aged man by the collar.

"Yes, yes, I'll just say, it seems to be a man and two women, and they were still ...... just now."

The middle-aged man threw it to the ground, and a terrifying coercion permeated the audience.

The white-haired old man frowned at this, but didn't say anything after all.

"Can anyone tell me where those three people went, and who this Tsukidan is. As he spoke, a turquoise pill appeared on his fingertips.

A person at the back of the crowd pointed to the alley that Kou Shan and the three men entered: "They seem to have entered that alley." ”

Another person said, "It seems that someone flew out of the alley just now and went to the south." ”

"Good!"

The middle-aged man shouted, threw out two Tsukidans, and then rose from the ground and shot towards the south, and a group of disciples followed one after another.
