Chapter 152: The Cultivation Conference
As soon as Mu Yi returned to the main hall, Tan Yuan greeted him with a panicked face: "Senior Brother Mu, the three assassins I just captured died suddenly, and I don't know why." ”
Mu Yi frowned, and looked at the black-clothed man who was tied to the pillar, his face was blue, and his seven orifices were bleeding, obviously poisoned to death.
Mu Yi stepped forward, opened a person's mouth and looked at it, and sighed: "These people have poison sacs hidden between their teeth, and they bite them and commit suicide after being caught." ”
Tan Yuan gasped: "Who are they, they are so cruel to themselves, isn't this thing only used by spies." ”
Mu Yi didn't answer this unnutritious question, but just looked around and said, "What about the master, didn't wake him up with such a big movement?"
"Don't you know him yet. Tan Yuan scratched his scalp with a smile, "As soon as I was happy at night, I drank a vat of wine and fell asleep." ”
"You go and wake up the master, now that our great enemy is now, there is no more peaceful years in the past. Mu Yi shook his head, quite a headache. The huge Kunlun Gate, in fact, he has been maintaining it alone all these years, Zhao Laodao knows that drinking, Tan Yuan can't do anything else except swagger and deceive everywhere.
"Yes. "Tan Yuan is also obedient, he is a noble and self-aware, although he has the name of a big disciple, he can cultivate for a low level, and secondly, he is too lazy to take care of things, and he is obedient to Mu Yi.
Not long after Tan Yuan went, Zhao Laodao's unique male duck voice came from the side hall: "What is the noise at night, if you have something to do with Mu Yi." ”
After that, Tan Yuan's whispering and the sound of getting up and dressing, a group of people in the main hall stared at each other, and they really had nothing to say about this master.
"Assassins, where are the assassins, the mountain protection array of our Kunlun Gate was set up by the ancestor himself, and monks below the Yuan Infant Stage couldn't break in at all. Zhao Hong must have also learned the general situation from Tan Yuan, and shouted as he walked towards the main hall.
Looking at Zhao Hong, who even had the crown of Wuyue reversed, Mu Yi felt that this master could not be counted on, and said helplessly: "I still want to ask you, how can our mountain protection array easily get people in, you are the head of Kunlun Gate, and the assassin's body is tied to the pillar, you can see for yourself." ”
Zhao Hong helped the fallen Taoist temple, touched the assassin's corpse for a while, and sighed: "I don't have any cultivation at all, I am a mortal?" ”
"The two who are in the lead are Adepts, and I have fought against them, one can emit lightning, and the other is extremely fast. The others were all well-trained mortals, and they were very skilled in gun handling, and several disciples in the Qi Refining Stage were injured in their hands. Mu Yi patiently explained, although he felt that what he said was in vain.
Zhao Hong thought about it, stretched out his hand and groped for a long time on the corpse of the man in black, and finally found a jade plaque in the pocket of his underwear.
"As I expected, these people all have tokens on them that enter and exit our Kunlun Gate Great Array. ”
Tan Yuan stepped forward to take a look, it was exactly the same as the sect token they carried, and searched the remaining two corpses, and really found another token.
"There are spies!" Tan Yuan suddenly became alert, his gaze swept over the group of Qi Refining Stage disciples, "What about your tokens, take them out!"
In order to show their innocence, everyone took out their tokens one after another, and there were quite a few. Tan Yuan panicked when he saw it, the token issuance of Kunlun Gate has always been in his control, and other people's is right, it is his problem that has gone wrong. He hurriedly took out a bunch of tokens and counted them, and then wiped a cold sweat: "Master, the tokens you handed over to me are counted, you count, they are all here, I am not a spy." ”
Zhao Hong waved his hand: "I know, these tokens were not circulated by you, but were in the hands of others early in the morning." ”
"What's going on?" Xiaowen felt very strange, "Could it be that the master gave it to someone else before?"
Zhao Laodao sighed, and his words were a little difficult: "Why do you want to give the token of this sect to others as a teacher, in fact, I expected this day that I would always come." ”
Mu Yi knew in his heart when he heard this, and said, "What the master is talking about is the second master ancestor who killed the Taishi Ancestor back then?"
"Not bad. Zhao Hong glanced at Mu Yi and nodded, "When I was cleaning up the corpses of my fellow sects, I found that many people's sect orders were gone, so I knew that they were taken away by the second uncle. Although he was afraid that the cultivation realm would find out about his deception and destruction of his ancestors, he did not dare to stay in Kunlun Mountain, but he still kept his hand. I was afraid that he would come back, so I didn't dare to go back to Shanmen for two hundred years. ”
Mu Yi frowned, and said in confusion: "If it is from the Second Master Bozu Sect, why are these people not cultivating? And I heard that the person who came just now was not speaking Chinese, and shouted as if it was 'Ha Si Jin'." ”
"Ha Si in?" Xiaowen repeated in a low voice, and suddenly said, "This is a Japanese sentence, which means to go, it turns out that these people are from Japan." ”
"The Japanese, how can they have our access token?" Tan Yuan was stunned, his face dazed.
Mu Yi thought about the cause and effect, and analyzed: "The tokens must have been brought out by the second master and the ancestor, and if he doesn't say it, others won't know the use of these tokens." I'm afraid that he can't stay at home and colludes with foreign supernatural people. ”
Zhao Laodao muttered: "That's it, I can't stay here, when we finish participating in the cultivation conference, let's find a place to build a new mountain gate for the teacher, we can't afford to provoke, can't we still hide." ”
Even the master said so, what else could the apprentices say, and everyone didn't dare to stay any longer, packed up the things in the mountain gate, hurriedly went down the mountain, and went straight to Sichuan to receive the door.
Sichuan is mountainous, and the mountainous area is not suitable for farming, so it is sparsely populated, and the leading door is selected in the most remote Daliang Mountain, with a phantom array outside. Although the cultivation realm and the secular realm are on the same earth, they try their best to avoid being discovered by the secular realm.
When the Kunlun Gate people arrived, it was already overcrowded. As one of the smallest sects, the Kunlun Sect's station was very shabby, with only a dozen tents set up in the open space.
"When we get here, those people will definitely not dare to mess around, we are safe. Zhao Laodao not only did not complain about the arrangement of the leading door, but was very happy, "The leading door is one of the three major cultivation sects, and there are great monks in the Yuan Infant Stage." ”
Mu Yi looked at the top of the mountain with curling smoke, and said angrily: "Safety is safe, but master, no one has brought food until now, is this going to starve us to death." ”
Zhao Hong sniffed and said indifferently: "It's nothing, don't we have dry food?" This is also to give you some motivation, if we become a medium sect, will we still have such treatment." In two days, you can do more to give our Kunlun Gate a rise in prestige. ”
"Is our Kunlun Gate still majestic?" Mu Yi slandered in his heart, distributed some naan and water he brought, and went out to relax.
Xiaowen saw that he was unhappy, so she followed, and the two of them avoided the noisy contestants of various factions, and chose a remote grove to sit down.
"Brother Mu, if you don't feel like you're having a good time, let's go. Xiaowen leaned on his shoulder and comforted him softly.
Mu Yi shook his head: "It's not what you think, besides, the master healed my injury, and we also learned about Entu." I'm just thinking about where that group came from and what I'm going to do in the future. ”
"The master is really, as the head of the house, he doesn't care about anything, Senior Brother Tan is still Senior Brother, I can't count on it at all. The husband sang and the wife followed, and Xiaowen also began to worry about him.
Mu Yi smiled self-deprecatingly: "I also find fault by myself, the master doesn't care, I don't care." ”
"You just think that the master is kind to you, so you want to do something for him. Xiaowen knew him the most and knew what he was thinking, "But now that Kunlun Gate has provoked a big enemy, let's stay alone." ”
"I understand. Mu Yi held her little hand, "Don't worry, the master is very timid, I don't need to say, he runs faster than anyone else, you should pay attention these days, pay more attention to the people around you." ”
Xiaowen nodded obediently and buried his arm in the crook.
The Xiuzhen Conference was held once every 30 years, and all sects and factions attached great importance to it, and all the work was carried out in an orderly manner, and the conference was held on the second day of the first month of February as scheduled.
When Mu Yi and others arrived at the conference site, they found that there were nine large platforms placed in the competition hall, three of which were slightly larger and higher in height, and the other six were slightly smaller, with some seats placed on them, and a group of people were sitting or standing, chatting and laughing on the platform. Especially on the big platform in the center, an old Taoist with fairy wind bones is holding a whisk, and his eyes seem to be looking at all beings.
"Master, what's going on?" Mu Yi was stunned by this scene and couldn't help but ask.
Zhao Hong pointed to the platform in front of him: "These are all rings." The three big arenas are for the three major sects, and the six small ones below are the six medium sects. The big ring in the middle is the person who leads the door, and the one sitting is the master of the door, the Jiuxiao Dao person. Whoever wants to challenge which sect will attack directly. ”
Mu Yi was stunned and said, "Shouldn't the competition be one-on-one?
"What is a group fight, it's too ugly. Zhao Hong snorted, "The strength of the sect is not about how profound a person's cultivation is, but about the strength of the entire sect. Some sects are good at formations, some are good at controlling things, and so on. Wouldn't it be unfair if it was to simply fight alone? This method of attacking was handed down from ancient times, and if it was not reasonable, how could it have been passed down for so many years. ”
Mu Yi couldn't help but be speechless, this method was really the first time he had heard of it, he was busy carefully checking the people in each ring, estimating the strength of the opponent, and after a circle, he felt even more bottomless: "Master, why are all cultivators above the Jindan stage in the ring?" I think the least group of people in the ring have a spiritual void period, and there are more than a dozen monks in the Jindan stage." ”
Zhao Hong nodded: "Only monks above the Jindan stage can fight, and in a while, you and the third junior sister will follow the teacher to attack the small ring on the far right, are you confident." ”
