Well, I won't say much nonsense. Now start searching deep into the mountains in groups of three, but make sure that the distance between each group does not exceed five thousand meters. If you find the young master or encounter a dangerous situation, you will immediately send a signal for help, do you hear clearly?"

"Hear me clearly. ”

"Good. In that case, let's do it now. ”

The crowd stopped talking nonsense, and immediately turned over and got on their horses, and galloped away towards the depths of the mountain.

Since Ye Dan's own cultivation was relatively high, he was not afraid of the fierce beasts in the mountains attacking him, so he formed a group alone. He sighed deeply, urging his energy to sacrifice the flying sword, and then Edgeworth flew low at altitude.

......

Ye Yuntian picked up and put down the teacup in his hand, then put it down and picked it up again. Just as he brought the teacup to his lips, he put it down again. Then he got up and paced back and forth in the room, Ye Chen didn't return from hunting today, he was really worried.

"Ye San, has the young master come back?"

"Master Qiqi, the young master and the others have not returned yet. ”

Ye Yuntian took a deep breath, although Ye Chen sometimes left home to play, he would definitely return at the time he said, but today it has been two hours and he has not returned, how can this not make him worry?

"Ye San, as soon as there is news from the young master, I will report it immediately. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

After giving Ye San an explanation, Ye Yuntian came to the conference hall, and at this time, Ye Xiaotian and the third Ye Aotian were discussing the matter of the martial arts competition two days later.

Seeing that Ye Yuntian's face was very ugly, Ye Aotian thought that the second brother was angry and didn't invite him, so he hurriedly got up and said, "The second brother is here, and the eldest brother and I are about to send someone to invite you......?"

Ye Yuntian interrupted Ye Aotian's words with a wave of his hand, and said, "Chen'er is gone." ”

"Ahh

Ye Xiaotian, the head of the Ye family, also stood up from his chair in shock by this sentence, "Ahhh

Ye Aotian was even more shocked, and blurted out: "Second brother, you said Chen'er is gone?"

Ye Yuntian waved his hand and motioned for the two to sit down. After the two sat down, Ye Yuntian told the two of them about Ye Chen's hunting. After listening to Ye Yuntian's words, the brows of the two of them also furrowed.

Ye Xiaotian took a sip of tea and said, "Second brother, don't worry, maybe something is delayed on the road." Although Ye Xiaotian said this, according to his understanding of Ye Chen, he also knew that he was just saying this to comfort Ye Yuntian.

"Yes, second brother, maybe something on the road is delayed, and it's not impossible. ”

"No, absolutely not. Ye Yuntian immediately vetoed the words of the two and said, "Even so, there is really something delayed on the road. But according to Chen'er's character, he would also send someone to inform me, but no one came to inform me. ”

Ye Aotian said: "Then what now?"

"Immediately block the news, and don't let the news of Chen'er's disappearance spread. Our next task is to find Chen'er right away so that he can impress in the competition in two days' time. By the way, second brother, do you know Chen'er's whereabouts?"

"I heard from the people of Windy City that Chen'er and the others set off towards the mountain. ”

"Good. Ye Xiaotian said: "Third brother, you sit at home, ready to welcome the guests of the other two major families and Qingtianguan, and the second brother and I will lead people to find Chen'er." ”

The reason why Ye Xiaotian is so anxious also has his reasons, he is thinking about the safety of his family.

Although the three major families live in harmony on the surface, they are secretly fighting behind the scenes, and in addition to the big war, small frictions are constant.

Especially in the past hundred years, the two major families of Sikong Holy Land and the descendants of Gonggong have all produced a number of outstanding figures, which undoubtedly poses a great threat to the status of the ancient Ye family.

And Ye Chen's appearance completely changed this situation, and their two families all wanted to win over the Ye family. In order to win over the Ye family, the head of the Sikong Holy Land also married his daughter Xu to Ye Chen, forming a strong combination.

So this time, Ye Xiaotian had to find Ye Chen no matter what. It can be said that Ye Chen shoulders the burden of the survival of the entire ancient Ye family.

After the arrangement was made, Ye Yuntian and his brothers led the Ye family's masters to set off, and countless flying swords in the sky flew towards the depths of the mountain.

......

The heavy rain still showed no signs of stopping, and it kept falling.

Ye Chen was lying in a mud, and the blood on his body was also washed to the ground by the rain. At this moment, he looked almost indistinguishable from a corpse.

But if you look closely, you can see the strange appearance of Ye Chen's body, the left half of his body is black, as if it has been scorched by fire, and when the rain is intertwined on it, it makes a "snort" sound, and it immediately turns into a stream of water vapor.

The right side of the body seems to be frozen, a crystal clear, and the rain that falls is instantly covered with white ice!

Through Ye Chen's body, he could clearly see that two gases, one black and one white, were fighting violently in his body.

"Ah...... It's so hot, I'm going to be roasted. Ye Chen's eyes suddenly widened, the steam above his head was billowing, and his body jumped up from the spot with a rub, and then fell heavily to the ground.

"Ah, it's so cold, I'm freezing to death. Ye Chen was shivering from the cold, his face was blue, and even his eyelashes were covered with ice.

Alternating between hot and cold, the cycle continued, and I don't know how long it took, the two gases in Ye Chen's body finally condensed together, turned into a yin and yang fish, and finally entered the Dan Sea. And at this moment, the two pains that Ye Chen suffered also disappeared, and he closed his eyes again.

I don't know how long it took, but the rain finally stopped, and a little starlight appeared in the sky.

Not long after, Ye Chen finally woke up, he didn't know what time it was, only the stars in the sky could indicate that it was night.

Thinking that Ye Dan and the others were still waiting for him at the mountain pass, Ye Chen wanted to join them, but as soon as he stood up, a heart-wrenching feeling suddenly swept through his body, causing him to fall to the ground in pain again.

Ye Chen gasped for breath, sat on the ground and rested for a long time, then gritted his teeth again and insisted on standing up. At the moment he looked weak, and his gait was staggering, as if he were drunk.

Suddenly, Ye Chen tripped under his feet and fell to the ground, and the sharp pain hit him again, but he didn't care about it, because he already felt that there was a person lying under his feet.

He fumbled for a while, but fortunately the fire fold was on the left side of his body, and when he lit it, it turned out to be an old man with white hair. He took a closer look, and it turned out that the person who fell was the Qingsong Dao man he had seen before he passed out.

Only then did Ye Chen remember the scene when the Qingsong Dao people and Yin Jiuyou were fighting, but since Hongmang came out, he didn't remember anything.

Ye Chen tested for a moment, and Qingsong Daoren's whole body stiffened, obviously he had been dead of anger for a long time. As soon as Ye Chen turned around, he saw Yin Jiuyou again, there was no doubt that Yin Jiuyou was obviously dead.

Since everyone was already dead, it was impossible for Ye Chen to let them abandon the corpse wilderness, and after resting for a while, Ye Chen took out the dagger, dug a pit with great effort, and then buried Qingsong Dao and Yin Jiuyou together.

I'm afraid that even Qingsong Daoren and Yin Jiuyou didn't expect that he had fought all his life before his death, but he was buried together after his death.

After burying the two of them, Ye Chen wanted to use his footwork to leave here, but as soon as he activated his vitality, the intense pain immediately reminded him that it was inconvenient to urge his vitality at the moment, so he endured it. However, just when Ye Chen was depressed, he suddenly found that there was a black and white stick in a pit under the two of them, which looked a little ugly, like an originally white jade treasure stick dyed with black charcoal, but these black things were very regular, like runes printed on the white jade treasure stick, obscure and profound, if you stare carefully, you can actually make your heart move.

Ye Chen took the stick in his hand and looked at it, and a strange feeling immediately rose from the Dan Sea, but this feeling had disappeared in just an instant. Ye Chen frowned, thinking that it was his own delusion, so he didn't care anymore.

"It just so happens that I can't walk, so it's good to use him as a crutch. Ye Chen said and picked up the stick and waved it around twice, and a small tree with a diameter of seven or eight centimeters was instantly cut off. Ye Chen was taken aback, "Hey, I didn't expect this thing to be quite sturdy, it's really a good crutch." ”

If Qingsong Dao and Yin Jiuyou knew that this guy in front of them was using the supreme divine weapon fused with their town sect treasures as a crutch at the moment, would they climb out of the loess mound again in anger?

It turned out that this stick was actually a fusion of the Taoist treasure fairy stick and the ghost clan's wand, and was later called the yin and yang stick.

After doing all this, Ye Chen leaned against a big tree and took a nap.

When the first rays of sunlight shone on him, he opened his eyes again. After a period of rest, the pain in his body was reduced a lot, and he was basically able to walk for a long time. He stretched and walked out of the mountain on crutches.

Two days have passed, and Ye Yuntian and the others still have no trace of Ye Chen, as if this person has completely disappeared from the world, and there is not even a trace of it.

Ye Xiaotian sighed helplessly, and said, "Today is already the day of the competition, but there is still no trace of Chen'er, why don't we change the date of the competition?"

Ye Yuntian said: "Big brother, since the date has been set, and the guests who came to watch the battle have also come." If I change the date, I don't think it's appropriate. ”

"Then what should I do? If you don't change the date, you can only compete today, and Chen'er still hasn't heard from me, I'm afraid these two families will be suspicious. ”

"That's it, big brother, the competition will continue as usual, but we need to change the rules a little. ”

Ye Xiaotian knew that the second eldest of the three of them had always been resourceful, and now when he heard him say this, he immediately cheered up and asked, "Second brother, you said to change the rules, how should you change them?"

"Let's increase the number of participants and lower the threshold for participation, so that there will be more people in the competition. The more people there are in the competition, the more time I have to find Chen'er. ”

Ye Yuntian's last sentence was very resolute, although he didn't find any trace of Ye Chen for two days. But he always had a subtle feeling in his heart that Ye Chen must still be in this big mountain.

"Second brother, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, I'm afraid ......"
