At this time, Ji Xun seemed to have left the mountain stream with other monks, and Ji Xun also turned back twice on the way, but he still found no trace of Ye Kui, so he had to return disappointed.

Tonight the valley was as quiet as usual, except for the smell of blood in the wind.

The first rays of sunlight invaded this cold mountain stream, and the old cultivator appeared from somewhere in the mountain stream.

"Is the old man suspicious, the little baby surnamed Ye is indeed not here."

Finally, after Ji Xun snorted coldly, he really left from the mountain stream.

I don't know how long it took, the warm sun dispelled most of the cold in the mountain stream, and a vision appeared next to a slightly leaning dead tree.

Black ink overflows from the top of the tree, forming a painting, a black ink man slowly emerges from the painting, and finally the ink recedes and Ye Kui appears.

"That audit is also exempt from caution, back and forth several times before I am willing to leave, if I have something urgent to walk out of the Immortal Diagram directly, it will hit the audit and the shells of the audit."

Ye Kui, who was reflected in the warm sun, walked into the remnants of the mountain stream that was entangled in shriveled vines.

"Before leaving here, let's see if there are any clues here, and I hope they haven't cleaned up this place too cleanly."

Ye Kui walked from a gap to the inside of the ruined city, it was not dirty, but it was very clean, but the stone furniture and the like were placed in a mess.

"This should be caused by the fact that they left here in a hurry, if it is a normal situation, those who are used as shells of the people who are used as tools for the audit will stay here to cultivate."

Ye Kui, who was strolling through an area inside the ruined city, observed the situation here while thinking about where the things he wanted would be hidden.

"It's blood, but the smell is very faint, as if it was left in it a long time ago, but it may also be recent, and there is a faint trace of dried blood in the dents and scratches on the stone wall."

At this time, when Ye Kui passed by a certain stone wall, he stretched out his hand and scraped it at will, and then deducted some dry black blood stains from the slight cracks in the stone wall.

"There was a fight here, could it be that this was caused when the Shell Monk went crazy? If you guess according to what the monk said before, the monks who stayed in this place have fought each other more than a few times, it should be more than a few years. ”

Along the way, Ye Kui also saw that the rest of the ruined city had already been damaged, and it was calculated that the ruined ruined city had been damaged by half on top of this.

The above can only be seen when you enter or get close to the interior of the ruined city, and some areas only look stable on the surface, but in fact, they can collapse with a casual kick.

For this reason, Ye Kui searched for several hours in this crumbling ruined city, during which he had to be vigilant to return here, but until the end, the audit did not return to this mountain stream again.

"These things... Exactly three, are they the three ancient paintings I'm looking for?"

After some searching, Ye Kui found three rolled-up ancient paintings in an area of the ruined city.

Ye Kui found these three ancient paintings in a large wooden box in a secret room with a secret door, in addition to these three ancient paintings, Ye Kui also found some miscellaneous items and a pile of empty small porcelain bottles in the wooden box.

"Let's take a look at what is in the three ancient paintings first, but since they are all placed in a box containing miscellaneous items, they are not placed in the space ring or Qiankun bag that you carry with you.

Then these three ancient paintings are probably not important, so the owner of this secret room will hastily close the wooden box, and the chain will not be closed. ”

After that, Ye Kui took the three ancient paintings and walked towards the more well-lit area of the ruined city.

When Ye Kui opened the three ancient paintings one by one, it was strange to see the contents on the three ancient paintings.

"The content of these three ancient paintings is not just landscape handwriting, but it should also have some relevance to people."

Ye Kui began to observe the contents of the three ancient paintings.

The first ancient painting depicts a sharp symbol scattered in a circle.

The second ancient painting is a long strip pattern, or a map?

The third painting depicts a fat duck whose movements have been frozen, and the fat duck is trampling the water with its yellow fins, and is constantly flapping its wings in an attempt to leap up from the shadowed water. ”

The current Ye Kui can't know the specific meaning of the content on these three ancient paintings for the time being, of course, there is no meaning at all on these three ancient paintings.

As a result, the three ancient paintings were ruthlessly thrown into a dark wooden box, lying together with a pile of miscellaneous items.

"I don't have a clue, I'd better leave this place first, quietly return to Hongfeng City, and then hand over these three ancient paintings to Hongfeng Pavilion, and let the people of Hongfeng Pavilion see if these paintings are the items needed for the three rewards.

After that, just wait for the news from Mr. Miao's side, and then check the details of the old cultivator after dealing with these, that the judge enslaved and indirectly killed so many monks, and the monks in the nearby Hongfeng City didn't find anything unusual?"

Ye Kui shook his head helplessly, and then walked out of the dilapidated town and left the empty mountain stream.

When Ye Kui returned to Hongfeng City, he deliberately chose a place with more people to walk, after all, he had been walking in the area with more trees in Hongfeng City.

During this period, Ye Kui also stood by a small stream in Hongfeng City for a while, and then put a leaf on the surface of the stream, watching the scene of the leaves covered by his shadow fluttering on the surface of the stream in the wind.

"That's what you mean? Or is it a little bit worse?"

Ye Kui said something inexplicably, and then walked in the direction where Hongfeng Pavilion was.

"Fellow Daoist, wait a minute, this time the situation is a little special, I'm going to call the steward, and the steward should be able to see if these three ancient paintings are the items on the three rewards."

"I'm tired."

Ye Kui, who had already entered the Hongfeng Pavilion, handed over the three ancient paintings found from the remnants of the mountain stream to a monk in charge of the reward task of the Hongfeng Pavilion.

However, the monk couldn't see the specific situation of these three ancient paintings, so he had to apologize and call other stewards of Hongfeng Pavilion to come over for appraisal.

"Isn't it just three paintings, you can't even tell what you're doing here?"

Not long after, a young monk came to Ye Kui with dissatisfaction, and the monk who called the young steward over had no choice but to make a bitter face and not dare to refute.

"Please let me see those three paintings, don't worry, it won't take too long, I only need to scan it and get the result."

The steward swore and stretched out his hand to Ye Kui.

"Hard work."

Ye Kui didn't say much, and directly took the three rolled ancient paintings.

"Daoist friends sit down and wait for a while, let me observe slowly."

“......”

After the steward had finished speaking, he sat down and opened the ancient painting to look inside, and the monk who had called the steward was ordered to leave.

"It's ...... Well, why is it a little inconsistent with the description left by the person who offered the bounty, fellow Daoist, did you take the wrong one?"

"Steward, you just have to say which painting is wrong or doesn't match."

"It's this one, and the description on it doesn't match the description left by the bounty holder."

The monk in charge picked up one of the three ancient paintings spread out on the table and gathered it in front of Ye Kui.

Ye Kui saw that the steward monk held up in front of him was the ancient painting with a long strip on the content.

"I want to ask the steward, what is wrong with it? After all, what you said is not completely wrong, and some of it is wrong. ”

"Fellow Daoist, forgive me, I can't say this clearly, at this time, if I tell you about this matter, it will not only make me lose my position as a steward and leave Hongfeng Pavilion, but also damage the reputation that Hongfeng Pavilion has accumulated on the Tianque Continent."

The steward explained to Ye Kui with some embarrassment.

"That's what you ask, right half?"

"Add some more."

"It's right for the most part, so what's wrong with it?"

"I can't say this, but also ask Daoyou to think about it yourself, my suggestion is that Daoyou can first agree to hand in the other two ancient paintings that have been matched.

As for this ancient book in my hand, I still ask Ye Daoyou to take it back. ”

When the steward said this, he had already put the ancient painting that he had rejected in his hand on the table on Ye Kui's side, and the two other two ancient paintings were slowly re-rolled up by the steward.

"Will you wait for me, this steward? Maybe I know what the problem is. ”

"Yes, fellow Daoist, please."

After getting the consent of the steward opposite, Ye Kui directly picked up the teapot on the table and poured it down on the ancient painting that was rejected by the steward.

"Fellow Daoist, even if you are angry, there is no need to do this, after all, this ancient painting was also painted by a monk, and the material of the paper used in this ancient painting is not ordinary paper in the mortal world."

The monk opposite Ye Kui saw that Ye Kui seemed to be acting irrationally, so he politely dissuaded Ye Kui, and at the same time, the steward also kept the other two ancient paintings that had just been rolled in his hands, so as not to be splashed with tea.

However, it was too late, and the tea lid of the small teapot in Ye Kui's hand was directly removed by Ye Kui, and then the water in the entire teapot was poured on the ancient painting by Ye Kui.

Just as the steward was about to turn around and leave, Ye Kui stood up directly and used his shadow to block the main content of the ancient painting on the table that was drenched in tea.

"At this time? Ye Daoyou, now this ancient painting is completely in line with the description left by the bountyholder! ”

The monk in charge suddenly saw that the content of the ancient painting that was wet with tea by Ye Kui had increased, and it should be said that the content of the ancient painting had increased a little.

The original pattern with only long strips on it has now become a long strip like the word "cai".

"No, Ye Daoyou, as soon as you dodged the content of this painting, it changed back to the original."

"No problem, the real content of this ancient painting has not been fully displayed, just now it only showed part of the content, this is the conclusion I came to from observing the other two ancient paintings, I didn't expect it to be correct."

By the time Ye Kui finished explaining to the steward casually, the ancient painting on the table, which was originally wet with tea, had dried out, and the content had changed back to its original state.
