At night, the moon is like practice in the clouds, and in the prison of the demon slaying team, the candle shadow is forested. The demon slayers guarding the demon spirits were extremely cautious. Before this little demon was caught, it had been deserted for a long time. Last night, after hearing the news that the people with the surname had entered the clouds, they were afraid that the people with the surname would have any unusual actions, and everyone in the demon slaying team did not dare to slack off.

However, it was in this tense atmosphere that all the candles in the prison were suddenly extinguished. Just as the demon slayer was panicking, a sturdy figure shuttled through them, and after a while, the commotion of the demon slayer was quiet—they all fainted, and they didn't even have time to scream.

Good fellow, you're so agile.

"Open flame, up!" With the dull sound of the sturdy figure, a candle was lit in the man's hand. Let's take a look at this person's face through the candle flame in his hand, and sure enough, this person is indeed Zhang Shui, who is a family member with a surname!

Zhang Shuizhan followed the discovery in his hand, quietly touched the prison where the little demon spirit was held, and used a magic weapon to open the door. So, a small figure appeared in front of him—sitting on his back in a black robe. I can't help but say that this must be the demon spirit that Zhang Shui wants to rob!

Zhang Shui thought exactly that, so he walked over and stretched out his hand-

At this moment, the little figure turned around, drew his saber casually, and slashed at Zhang Shui unexpectedly! However, Zhang Shui took advantage of the situation to dodge and perfectly dodged this fatal blow. Could it be that he had already seen this trap?

"That's the time to put on a talisman array!" Zhang Lingmeng shouted, it turned out that it was Zhang Lingmeng who was pretending to be a demon spirit, and he caught a turtle in an urn.

At this time, all the lights in the cell were turned on again. Only then did Zhang Shui see clearly that the underground of this prison was densely covered with spells, which was a talisman about imprisoning people's actions. Sure enough, several demon slayer masters responded from the top of the ceiling, each standing in position, and trapped Zhang Shui in the center of the rune array. And Zhang Lun and Zhang Haotian also flashed out of the darkness. In fact, Zhang Haotian and the others have been waiting here for a long time.

"It seems that the plan is going well. Zhang Yan said proudly.

Zhang Haotian recalled the words of Zhang Lun who was drowned out by the wind at that time-

"I have a proposal, let's secretly move the little demon spirit to another safe place, and then lay a net in the prison for the people to jump around. "As for which place is safer? I know one place, and that is Zhufang Pagoda." Tomorrow we will place him in the Zhufang Pagoda under the pretext of ensuring the safety of the demon spirit, and then ......"

"But will the Lord of Zhufang Tower agree?" said Zero Dream.

"I don't expect the tower master to dare not agree, after all, the demon spirit was found here in Duyun, and he, the tower master of the Zhufang Tower, is more or less embarrassed. As the leader of the Crossing Clouds, it is his natural responsibility to assist our demon slayer in apprehending the demon spirits. ”

"I'm worried that if we did this at the Dao History Conference yesterday, he will do his best to help us? What if that demon spirit is robbed by the people of the Removed Clan in the Zhufang Pagoda?"

"The strength of the Lord of Zhufang Tower is unfathomable, and it is by no means easily matched by the people of the Except Clan, so we don't have to worry so much. As for whether he will help us wholeheartedly, we will send a few brothers to observe, and if anything is wrong, they will notify me immediately, so we don't have to worry too much. ”

"So that's the case, then what kind of spell will we use to deal with the people of the Except Clan?"

"Confinement Array?" I saw Zhang Shui smile contemptuously, "Stupid clansmen!"

After speaking, Zhang Shui held a wooden staff and plunged it straight into the floor, and the floor suddenly cracked.

Zhang Lingmeng saw that the situation was strange, and immediately ordered: "Drive the talisman array immediately!"

"Ugh!"

What? Just now, the demon slayer who surrounded Zhang Shui and wanted to drive the rune array groaned in unison! When Zhang Haotian heard this, he saw that those demon slayer masters were tied up by the vines that grew out from under the floor! Who is this imprisoning whom!

Seeing that the plan had changed, Zhang Shui immediately drew his knife and rushed forward, and slashed at Zhang Shui's head-on! Zhang Shui dodged this menacing blow with a slight turn, and then Zhang Shui immediately drew his wooden staff and waved his sleeves at Zhang Lun. Seeing that the crutches were about to draw him, Zhang Ran hurriedly put the knife sideways and blocked the heavy blow. But this crutch seems to have infinite magic power, I saw that the wooden staff immediately extended several long whips at the moment of touching the blade, and several long whips struck Zhang Lun at the same time, and Zhang Lun was immediately fanned out by this violent whip and rolled to the ground!

Defeated!

Zhang Haotian was taken aback!

"You're quite smart, you actually used a trick!" Zhang Shui said, "But do you think you can compete with me with this strength?"

"They can't compete with you, what about me?" At this time, a figure with an extraordinary aura came out of the shadows, Zhongli Tower Master!

Zhang Haotian was not surprised by the appearance of the owner of Zhongli Tower, after all, this was also one of Zhang Yan's plans.

Zhang Shui was stunned, as if he was frightened by the Venerable in front of him, and his eyes softened suddenly.

"Even you are here, then, I have to walk and see!" Zhang Shuixin gritted his teeth unwillingly and waved the wooden staff in his hand, and the lights in the prison were all extinguished again.

In the darkness, the Zhongli Tower Lord shouted, "Bold fanatic, where to run?"

I only heard a "whoosh", leaving Zhang Haotian alone in the dark at a loss, what happened?

"Open flame, rise!" Zhang Lingmeng lit a beam of fire through a yellow talisman, barely lighting up the vision in the prison. Zhang Haotian was surprised to find that the tower master and Zhang Shui had disappeared.

"The tower master should go after the people who have been killed. Zhang Lun stood up again, a trace of blood hanging from his mouth.

"Looking at the appearance of the people who fled from the desert, presumably this Zhongli Tower Master is by no means an idle person, and it is indeed the safest to place the demon spirit in the Zhufang Tower. Zhang Haotian analyzed.

"Why don't we interrogate that demon spirit anymore, those two people are from the Qingcheng Sect, even if they deliberately hid the little demon spirit, our Zhang family can't settle a relationship with the Qingcheng Sect because of this matter, right?" Zhang Lingmeng proposed, "Why don't we just sacrifice that demon spirit on the spot?"

"This is not appropriate!" Zhang Yan immediately rejected this statement, "How can we tolerate the cultivation of adultery? If the Qingcheng Sect intervenes in this dispute this time and we do not deal with it, does it not mean that we have acquiesced in the fact that the people of the Qingcheng Sect can wantonly harbor the demon spirits? Think about the people who have no surname, he is a living example! After we have interrogated the demon spirits, we can only take action after investigating this matter. ”

Zhang Haotian felt that Zhang was reasonable, and nodded. Zhang Lingmeng saw that his younger brother also agreed with Zhang Lun's statement, so he had to sigh and say, "Okay, just according to what Uncle Zhang Lun said." After Zhang Lingmeng finished speaking, he looked out of the iron window again, the moon was like practice, and the stars were shining.

"I hope the Zhongli Tower Lord can subdue the people with the surname!"

That's the end of the night.

In the early morning of the next day, when Zhang Jue was still sleeping soundly with his head covered, Zhang Haotian got out of bed lightly. He washed up cursory and straightened his clothes. He didn't plan to go out in his Dao robe today, but reached into the Dao robe, searched for it, took out the scale that he had snatched from Eryan Gu's hand, which was suspected to be from a mirage, and gently pushed the door open and went out.

Zhang Haotian: Where are you going?

Following Zhang Haotian's footsteps, the picture suddenly shifted to a pharmacy - the famous pharmacy in Jiadu Yunli. I saw Zhang Haotian holding the scale in his palm and stretching it out to show the uncle who was looking at the store. The uncle who was watching the store looked around carefully, took out the medicine book in the cabinet and flipped through it, and thought about it with his cheeks. In the end, he shook his head and said dejectedly:

"I've never seen scales like this, and you suspect it's a mirage, but I haven't seen a mirage, and I can't identify it. ”

Zhang Haotian frowned, a little tricky.

"But I can ask my old father to take a look, he is very knowledgeable, maybe he can see it. With that, the uncle went back to the inner room, presumably to ask his old father to come out.

So, Zhang Haotian simply stood in front of the cabinet and waited. Suddenly, Zhang Haotian, who was bored, felt an inexplicable fragrance, and turned his head to look-

"Hey, where is the uncle? Why didn't you see him looking at the shop?"

A familiar female voice. The girl in front of her is almost the same height as Zhang Haotian, graceful and delicate, capable in a light and elegant plain skirt, heroic and slender like the duckweed flying in the light boat, the breeze and the moon and the shadow of the flowers; The most beautiful thing is the pair of clear eyes hanging on the flawless face, the eyelashes are like clouds, the willow eyebrows are like smoke, and the cherry lips are lightly opened at this moment, refreshing people's hearts.

Zhang Haotian was pleasantly surprised, but pretended to be calm and said to the girl next to him:

"Hey, Eryan!"

It turned out to be an old acquaintance Eryan.

Hearing this, Er Yan looked back in surprise: "Zhang Haotian, why did you come here?"

"Oh, I knew you'd show up here, so I'm waiting for you here. "Zhang Haotian is obviously lying, he is teasing Er Yan. He thought to himself that Er Yan was not a suspicious character now anyway, and what he was going to do at the pharmacy had nothing to do with her Er Yan, so why not find her to be happy and pass this boring time?

"What, I haven't seen you for the past few days, do you miss me?" Zhang Haotian intensified.

Er Yan's clean face flushed, and she muttered, "Shameless!" So, Er Yan turned her head and shouted, "Uncle, are you there?"

"Don't shout, he's going to ask his old father to come out of the mountain, and he'll come out in a while!" Zhang Haotian said.

Eryan fell silent.

"Eryan, why are you here?" asked Zhang Haotian.

"It's ridiculous, didn't you say that you were waiting for me here? You don't know what I'm doing here?" the clever Eryan retorted with Zhang Haotian's "frivolity".

"What are you talking about?" An elderly man walked out of the inner room, followed by the shopkeeper.

"Huh, uncle, you're here, has the spirit grass that my mother needs arrived?"

"It turns out that Eryan's hurry that day was really for such an urgent matter as delivering medicine, was she really to blame at that time?" Zhang Haotian thought.

When the uncle saw that it was Eryan, he said, "Oh, Xiaoyan, are you here again?" I'm sorry, it hasn't arrived yet, although this kind of spirit grass is a specialty of our Duyun, but the strange thing is that it has been difficult to find in recent years. ”

"But I've heard people say that twenty years ago, this kind of spirit grass was everywhere in the clouds, and why is it so hard to find now? Yan asked, tilting her head.

"This ......" uncle didn't know how to explain, so he had to ask his old father for help with his eyes.

The old man saw that Er Yan was so persistent, so he leisurely told some past stories about this elixir: "Little girl, the kind of spirit grass you want is called Xianrucao, and the name Xianrucao is to commemorate a Linggu twenty years ago, and that Linggu calls herself 'Yun'. ”

"Does this have anything to do with the low yield of the spirit grass now?" Zhang Haotian asked puzzled, he seemed to have forgotten about himself.

The old man didn't take advantage of Haotian's words, but continued to explain unhurriedly: "The fairy grass was brought by that spirit girl, and there is a past in it. It is said that twenty years ago, the bamboos in Duyun inexplicably bloomed, and it is not an auspicious thing for the bamboo to bloom. Sure enough, immediately after, the people in Duyun were suddenly infected with a plague, with heavy casualties and poor livelihoods, at that time, the old tower master had just died, and the new tower owner, that is, the current Zhongli tower master, had just taken over Duyunli, and encountered such a dilemma. At that time, the owner of Zhongli Pagoda worked hard every day to treat patients, but even so, the epidemic did not improve. Unfortunately, even the Lord of Zhongli Tower was later infected with this plague, and the future of Duyunli was in danger. ”

"What happens then?" asked Eryan anxiously.

"Later, there was a spirit girl floating in the Yunshui River, that is, the woman named 'Yun', she first went to the Zhufang Pagoda to take care of the young Zhongli Pagoda Master, and then brought a kind of spiritual grass to the fathers and villagers in Duyun, which is the fairy rue grass that the little girl you need. This spirit grass seemed to be the nemesis of this plague, and the patients who took it soon recovered. So, the Linggu mobilized the clansmen in Duyun to plant a fairy rue grass in every household, and the epidemic was eliminated. In the month after Linggu appeared, Duyunli gradually recovered with her help. ”

The old man continued: "A month later, the bamboo in Duyun was rejuvenated, and the fairy rue grass grew quickly, and it was immediately all over Duyun. Speaking of this fairy rue grass, its magic not only has a special effect on the plague, but also has a miraculous effect on all diseases. And it was in this thriving scene that the Linggu quietly disappeared on the bank of the Yunshui River. What's even more strange is that a year after the fairy Gu left, the yield of the fairy rue grass began to slowly decrease, and the growth began to deteriorate, and the former blooming everywhere slowly disappeared. However, about five or six years ago, the fairy rue grass miraculously grew on the bank of the Yunshui River, but it is still very rare, and there are many people who pick it, and the supply is in short supply, so it is difficult to buy it now. ”

The old man said to Er Yan again: "Little girl, let's come back another day, this time we really didn't pick the fairy rue grass, but we will always pay attention to it." ”

"Xiaoyan, I'll prescribe some body-tonifying medicine for your mother first, don't worry, we will pick the fairy rue grass." The uncle said.

"Well, that's all there is to it, thank you, uncle. So, Eryan hung aside and waited for the uncle to grab the medicine.

After telling this magical story, the old man turned to Zhang Haotian and said, "Little brother, don't you want to identify the phantom scales? Immortal has research in this area, I can give it a try." ”

"Well, the old gentleman is the one who bothers him. After speaking, Zhang Haotian handed over the scales.

So, the old man examined the scales carefully, and after two or three minutes, he came to a startling conclusion......
