It's night.

"Tuk tuk! tuk tuk!"

Ma Rui was meditating, and suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door, interrupting the Yuan Vein Qi path, he was unhappy in his heart, opened his eyes, but forced himself to be calm, and asked,

"Who is it?"

"Zhengde! It's me!"

Zhengde is Ma Rui's word, Wenren used to be good friends with him, familiar with each other, always thought that calling him by his name seemed too rusty, and never wanted to call him Senior Brother Ma, therefore, even if he had entered and lived in a master, the title was still according to the usual.

"Li Wenren?"

Ma Rui frowned, what was he doing at such a late hour?

Got up and pushed the door, he smiled,

"My junior brother came to visit late at night, I don't know what it is?"

Li Wenren is just an inner disciple, and he has always boasted that he is Ma Rui's best brother, and he worships under the door of Qu Jinyun, the head of Tianshen Mountain, although he is only a four-spirit body, his understanding is very good, and in just one month, he has introduced qi into the body, which is already many times stronger than some disciples of the three-spirit body.

Hearing that Ma Rui called him a junior brother, Li Wenren was slightly stunned, and then said,

"Zhengde...... Senior brother, Qingtang is dead again. ”

"Or the haunted farmer?"

Ma Rui looked surprised, and said in a somewhat uncertain tone,

"Before the inspection, it was not determined that it was man-made, and it was handed over to the government to deal with, how could there be another accident?"

Li Wenren waved his hand when he heard this, shook his head again and again, his face was a little serious,

"I'm afraid it's not that simple...... The suspect Wang Ergou died in prison, except for his facial horror, the body did not have the slightest scars on his body...... The uncle of the Qingyuan Hall thinks that compared to the statement of suffocating to death, it is more like being drained alive by evil arts!"

When Ma Rui heard him say this, he couldn't help but raise his fingers and rub his forehead, frowning and thinking deeply,

"Are there no signs of man-made?"

"The prison is iron-clad, and there are several cell bosses who are watching it, and they won't let anyone in. ”

Li Wenren's eyes widened, and his tone was quite certain,

"At that time, the guards were not only mortals, but also the senior brothers of the Yuan Invitation Palace!"

"That's ......"

Ma Rui lowered his eyes and sighed, but suddenly raised his hand and patted his head, as if he remembered something, he grabbed Li Wenren's sleeve and asked,

"Senior Brother Baili goes out in the morning, is he also going to Qingtang?"

Li Wenren nodded, looked around to make sure that there was no one, and immediately approached Ma Rui's side, covered his hands and ears, and whispered,

"Senior brother, don't be public, senior brother is about to talk about it..... Senior Brother Baili has not been heard from since he left this morning, and only Senior Sister Bai has seen him for the last time at the bottom of the mountain...... The summons from the station has arrived, and the garrison said that Senior Brother Baili has not responded to the senior brothers in Qingtang!"

Tianshen Mountain is not far from Qingtang, and it is only half a day's journey on horseback, so it stands to reason that Bailisheng should not have reached it until now, unless it ...... Something happened in the middle of the way!

Of course, Ma Rui doesn't care whether Baili is alive or dead, but he still needs to show that he is worried and anxious.

Therefore, his brows were frowned, his eyes were nervous, his palm was pressed on Li Wenren's shoulder, and he unconsciously used a little more strength, "How is this happening...... What did Elder Song say, Master, can you make arrangements afterwards?"

Li Wenren's shoulder hurt, but he didn't show it completely, but the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and his face tightened.

quietly took a step back,

"Elder Song has already gone to Qingtang, and the master has an order, ordering you and me to follow and assist Elder Song in tracking down the whereabouts of Senior Brother Baili, and investigating the truth by the way!"

The disciples of the Lingzhao period do not know talismans, but compared to mortals, they are deaf and powerful, and they are more than enough to be an assistant, but how to do it, they still need to rely on the practitioners who break through the dust and become enlightened.

"I see......"

Ma Rui nodded when she heard this, raised her hand again, patted the other party's shoulder vigorously, and responded,

"Okay, Senior Brother Li, you go first, I'm afraid that there will be a shortage of manpower, so I'll call Senior Brother Wang again!"

"Yes. ”

After the word was decided, Li Wenren turned around and left, his steps were hurried, he gently rubbed his left shoulder, and the killing intent in his eyes flashed.

If Chu Mingshu stood here, he would definitely recognize it immediately, Li Wenren, who was rumored to be the confidant brother of Tianjiao Ma Rui, was the young man who was cursed on the day of the qualification test, and his eyes were full of murderous intent!

Talking about the missing Baili Sheng here, Chu Mingshu was playing chess with Ye Wuming in the Taihe Palace, and the white son in his hand did not fall for a long time, and after a while, he threw the white son back into the chess basket and said, "No, this time it is also a draw." ”

Where is Ye Wuming willing to admit it, in front of Chu Mingshu, he counted the chess pieces one by one, for a long time, he smiled, "Senior Brother Shangguan, I have one more son, if you don't believe it, you can count it again." ”

Chu Mingshu pursed his lips, "That's it, I don't care about comparing myself with a child." ”

The Shanhai Sect is based on the teacher's inheritance, and the qualification cultivation is the longest, if the qualification cultivation is similar, the party will be based on age, Ye Wuming is young, and the qualification is not too good, although he started a few days earlier than Chu Mingshu, he still has to call the other party a senior brother.

"You're a fool!" he said angrily.

"Yes, it's just a trick, what can you do with me?"

"Oh, alas, it's too much?" Ye Wuming shouted injustice, picked up a sunspot in front of him, and smashed it hard at the other party,

"Look at the move!"

Chu Mingshu rubbed his forehead, caught the sunspot casually, his fingertips lightly pressed against the chess bones, he seemed to have no intention, and asked,

"Anonymous junior brother, do you know that Yandu has a famous pharmacy called 'Cunrongtang'. ”

Ye Wuming's original action of pouring tea paused slightly, it was only a slight moment, and he quickly returned to nature, poured the tea, he handed one of the cups to Chu Mingshu, picked up his own and took a sip gently, Fang said,

"All the shops with the word 'Rong' in Yandu are the property of the royal family, why, Senior Brother Shangguan dares to be interested?"

"Practicing is like becoming a monk, what's the use of being interested?"

"Senior brother laughed again, no one said that they would stay in the Shanhai Sect for the rest of their lives, especially the children of the family, the nobles of the royal family, practice, coincidence and enough self-protection, you can wave your sleeves and go home, who will stop it?"

Chu Mingshu lowered his eyes and lowered his head to hide the complexity in his eyes, "I heard that in the end, most of the disciples chose to stay in the ...... of the master's sect."

"Those are ordinary disciples, with low qualifications, ordinary backgrounds, cultivation time flies in a flash, and their lifespan is longer than that of ordinary mortals, they are homeless, and they are rarely really dedicated to the Dao. ”

"So it was. ”

Chu Mingshu made it look like he suddenly realized, arched his hand towards Ye Wuming, and said, "If it weren't for the advice of my junior brother, I would still be in the dark." ”

Ye Wuming was surprised, "Didn't the elders in the senior brother's family explain it in advance?"

Chu Mingshu shook his head, "Probably because time was tight at the time, I didn't have time to say it yet." ”

Ye Wuming thought thoughtfully, "You can forget such a thing, your parents are really careless." ”

Chu Mingshu smiled, "That's true!"
