Zhao Huangguan crossed the mountains and mountains, traveled all the way east, waited until the day was bright, came to a town far away from the tomb sheep ghost city, and familiarly drilled into the crowded market, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Sanxuan, who was carrying a bamboo basket and disguised as a footman, frowned slightly, and the gas in the market was mixed, and he couldn't sense where Zhao Huangguan was for a while, so he had to follow into the narrow alley.

As far as the eye can see, in the dim and damp narrow alleys, there are only a few beggars in ragged clothes, cowering in the corners of the wall, their skin festering, and their faces covered with ugly tumors, which at first glance are lesions caused by turbidity.

Most of these patients were not popular with ordinary people, and some local governments simply expelled them from the city and drove them to the wilderness to fend for themselves.

Zhao Sanxuan sighed in his heart, but he had no time to pay attention to it at the moment, and Zhao Huangguan, who left his field of vision, really didn't know what ridiculous things he would do.

Hurriedly passing through the narrow alley, Zhao Sanxuan still did not find any trace of Zhao Huangguan, and even the only trace of breath dissipated.

Just as he was about to cast a spell, there were several ruffians in front of him, and Hang'er Lang surrounded him.

"What advice do you have?" Zhao Sanxuan asked coldly.

"Take out all the valuable things you have!" The ruffian shouted.

"I'm just a middleman, and I don't have much money with me." Zhao Sanxuan glanced at them and was sure that they were all ordinary people who had no cultivation power.

"No?" The ruffian spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, Zhao Sanxuan moved his body and flashed, and the other party immediately said angrily: "You still dare to hide? Come on, rip off his clothes, I'm just getting a new one! ”

Several ruffians immediately gathered and stepped forward to move their hands and feet, Zhao Sanxuan had no intention of entanglement with them, Wei Ling Mu Duo hid in his sleeve and shook it gently, and the golden sound that ordinary people couldn't hear came out, shocking the soul, and those ruffians rolled their eyes and fainted and fell to the ground.

Zhao Sanxuan was about to leave, but he saw a charm on the back of one of the ruffians, his eyes changed, and the spell was activated instantly, and the qi was forbidden, instantly enveloping the place in the alley, directly trapping Zhao Sanxuan in the prohibition, making him unable to move.

At this time, Zhao Huangguan climbed out from behind the wall and said with a smile: "It seems that the senior brother also has negligence......

However, before Zhao Huangguan could finish speaking, Wei Ling Mu Duo did not shake to himself, the sound of the bell came from the inside out, and the prohibition shattered and disintegrated like glass.

Zhao Sanxuan broke free from the shackles of the ban, and without waiting for Zhao Huangguan to react, he had five fingers and one rune, and the rune was pushed out with his palm, hitting Zhao Huangguan right in the middle, directly knocking it back to its original shape.

"Oops!" Zhao Huangguan fell to the ground, like a ball of hairballs tumbling on the ground several times, and then was lifted by Zhao Sanxuan by the back of his neck.

"What are you doing?!" Zhao Sanxuan asked: "Even if you run around, you still incite ordinary people to make trouble." Do you think that if you leave Yunyan Peak, you will be able to act recklessly? ”

"Don't pull it, don't pull it!" Zhao Huangguan, who had turned back into his original body, was chubby, and his short limbs were constantly shaking, trying to break free.

"Senior brother, did the master ask you to come?" Zhao Huangguan saw that he couldn't break free, so he had to obey obediently.

"Yes." Zhao Sanxuan's anger did not subside: "Since you sensed that I was following, why do you want to play these tricks?" ”

"I thought it was a minion sent by the demon demon in the ghost city, so I used a little trick, but I didn't expect to meet the senior brother by mistake." Zhao Huangguan smiled and said: "I was originally worried about whether I would provoke any powerful people, but since I am a senior brother, then I am relieved." ”

Zhao Sanxuan, who heard this, was slightly relieved, sighed helplessly, and gently put his junior brother down.

Zhao Huangguan's body twisted into a human form, and asked cautiously, "Senior brother, is it difficult for you...... I've been following since I left Yunyan Peak? ”

"It's nature." Zhao Sanxuan said: "Shizun doesn't worry about you, so let me follow secretly." You entered that deserted village and ghost market last night, and you haven't come out for a long time, and I'm about to go inside to find out. ”

"Oh, senior brother, you can't enter!" Zhao Huangguan hurriedly waved his hand, thinking that with the temperament of a senior brother, seeing the scene of the bunch of demons and ghosts in the ghost market cooking and killing mortals, I was afraid that he would have a seizure on the spot.

"Why can't you go in?" Zhao Sanxuan said: "Even if there are demons and evil in the ghost market, I also have a way to deal with it. ”

Zhao Huangguan hurriedly said: "Shizun asked me to find out the news, but I don't want to startle the snake." If you break into the ghost market and kill all directions, and scare away all the demons and ghosts, wouldn't it be a ruin to the master's plan. ”

"Shizun just asked you to find out the news, don't speculate too much without permission." Zhao Sanxuan frowned.

"Senior brother, in fact, you also want to eradicate these demons, right?" Zhao Huangguan smiled and said: "Don't mention anything else, just the Xiaoyao Cave has been committed for many years, presumably the senior brother also feels overwhelmed, right?" In the past, in order to guard Yunyan Peak, it was inconvenient for you and Lu Zhenren to leave, but now that the master is back, and there is a senior in charge of Cangyan Gong, senior brother, you must also want to show your talents, right? ”

Zhao Sanxuan said solemnly: "Punish demons and evils, not because of a momentary whim." The master sent you and me down the mountain to make a plan and then move. Unless it is critical, I will naturally not act rashly. ”

Zhao Huangguan spread his hands: "That's what I said, but if unexpected variables happen, I can't tolerate such a steady fight." ”

"What's the variable?" Zhao Sanxuan asked: "Could it be that Xiaoyao Cave plans to invade Yunyan Peak again?" ”

"Not really." Zhao Huangguan told in detail about his experience in the tomb sheep ghost market.

"Qinghe Mansion Jun?" After Zhao Sanxuan listened, he also fell into silence for a long time.

Zhao Huangguan was quite complacent: "These demons and demons are killing each other, and it is just an opportunity to catch them all!" Instead of going to great lengths to climb mountains and drill holes and attack the well-defended dojo, it is better to hook out the demons. ”

Zhao Sanxuan also felt that this method was very wonderful, but he thought about it and said: "It's not appropriate, I think there are a lot of strange things about this matter." It is not uncommon for the master of the Xiaoyao Cave to covet the territory of the Qinghe Mansion and collude with the goddess of the salt pool, but it is very bizarre to recruit monks from the East China Sea.

Now that the Huaxu Imperial Court worships the East China Sea monks, the Xiaoyao Cave Master is a left-handed evil cultivator entrenched on a mountain, no matter how rampant he is, he will not risk joining forces with the Huaxu Imperial Court. What if the court of Huaxu took the opportunity to exterminate them? Wouldn't that lead the wolf into the house? ”

This time, it was Zhao Huangguan's turn not to speak, he scratched his head with some difficulty, he had heard the calculation of the master of the Xiaoyao Cave before, and he was excited for a while, not considering the danger that might be hidden behind him. Now that I was reminded by the senior brother, I realized that the master of the Xiaoyao Cave was not at ease at all.

"Qinghe is located in the country of Youxiong, if the master of Xiaoyao Cave wants the assistance of the East China Sea monks, I am afraid that it is not only the Qinghe Mansion Jun." Zhao Sanxuan shook his head and said: "I'm afraid this matter is not something you and I can decide, not to mention that if you want to pretend to be a monk from the East China Sea to gather the same sect, this matter must also be nodded by the master." ”

……

"Are you saying that the descendants of Qinghe Mansion Jun killed the disciples of the Yuxiao Sect?"

In Yunyan Peak, Zhao Xiao didn't take the other news to heart, but moved his mind to this word.

Zhao Huangguan replied: "That's what the master of the Xiaoyao Cave said, as for whether it is true or not, the disciple has not had time to verify it. ”

Zhao Sanxuan asked, "Does Master know the people of the Yuxiao Sect?" ”

"I don't know, but I have practiced thunder and arrows as a teacher, which is the inheritance of the Yuxiao Sect." Zhao Xiao said: "The Yuxiao Sect was also at its peak in the Tianxia Dynasty, but later it was rumored that there was discord within the sect, and the disciples of the two lineages fought each other endlessly, and the inheritance was almost severed. My teacher, Zhang Duanjing, was fortunate enough to obtain the method of arrows left by one of the disciples, and later integrated the "Five Tibetan Chapters of Shuying" and created another one. ”

"It turns out that the arrow method still has such a origin." Zhao Huangguan was full of interest: "In this case, we and the Yuxiao Sect also have a bit of a fate, and we should help them." ”

"What do you think?" Zhao Xiao looked at Zhao Sanxuan.

"The disciple feels that the master of the Xiaoyao Cave has other conspiracies and calculations." Zhao Sanxuan replied respectfully: "After we left the Tomb Sheep Ghost Market, we went to the vicinity of Qinghe to investigate, and learned that this Qinghe Mansion Monarch extorted money from the people along the river, and also offered hundreds of pairs of boys and girls every year, otherwise there would be a flood.

The disciple thought about it a little, among the three parties of the tomb sheep and ghost market, it should be the Qinghe Mansion Monarch with the greatest power and the thickest foundation. The Cave Master and the Salt Pond Priestess have coveted it for a long time, perhaps because it is difficult to win, so they need to find another help. ”

Zhao Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't speak, Zhao Sanxuan continued: "The disciple also heard that the Yuxiao Sect member was invited by the villagers along the coast to come to deal with the demons in the river, but he was outnumbered and finally suffered misfortune. ”

"Then what is Qinghe Mansion Jun doing now?" Zhao Xiao asked.

This time, Zhao Huangguan spoke: "Qinghe Mansion Jun didn't show up, but some of his demon sons and grandsons will still be haunting the coastal villages. We didn't dare to move lightly, and asked the master to decide. ”

"The mastermind of Xiaoyao Cave is to seize the foundation of Qinghe Mansion's dojo, and this matter is true." Zhao Huang immediately made a judgment: "It's just that the reason why a left-handed evil cultivator like him is fearless for the sake of the calamity, in addition to relying on his own cultivation, is still because the world is chaotic and the law is not strong." If he had such self-knowledge, he would do his best to stir up troubled times, such as letting Youxiong and Huaxu fight again, and he would not have time to take care of their demons. ”

The two disciples glanced at each other, each suspicious.

"This Wandering Cave Master is also a little witty, I heard that you are a monk of the East China Sea, and immediately tried to plan such a big thing." Zhao Xiao tapped his fingers on his knee: "It's a pity that today's Huaxu Kingdom is too unbearable, and such demons and evil are still indulgent, compared to the past...... That's it. ”

Zhao Xiao sighed in his heart, even if he had been disgusted with the government and the opposition of Huaxu State in the past, and the ministers and nobles only knew about their private schemes, but even so, if there were demons and evil spirits who wantonly killed the people, they would send the monks of the pavilion to deal with them.

And today's Huaxu Kingdom, although it still retains the system of the pavilion, also enshrines a group of East China Sea monks, and even has a lot of room to deal with Cangyan Gong, but it turns a blind eye to demons such as the Xiaoyao Cave Master.

It's just that it's useless to blame others at the moment, since the tomb sheep ghost market is involved from the Xiaoyao Cave Master, as well as the Yanchi Goddess and the Qinghe Mansion Jun, then Zhao Xiao doesn't plan to stay and indulge, one of them counts as one, and none of them can stay.

……

The dull thunder came into the crystal palace, and a group of loach demon soldiers with long limbs and armor trembled with fright, and the blades in their hands fell to the ground, choking, as if it was more piercing than the muffled thunder outside.

In the palace, the gilded ice basin is full of fresh fruits, and the red sandalwood screen is inlaid with pearls and jade. Gong E held a cuiling pheasant tail fan and gently shook the incense wind; The dancing girl is wearing a flowing wave fishtail skirt and has a graceful posture.

However, it was such a bejeweled and luxurious place, after the blades fell to the ground, the bells and drums stopped, the dancing and music stopped abruptly, and there was a dead silence in the crystal palace, and everyone unconsciously looked at the old man on the main seat.

The old man was dressed in a robe and a crown on his head, even if he was dressed like an earthly emperor, and everyone was worshipping him, he still couldn't hide a thick twilight aura on his body, and his face was gloomy and gray.

On the black jade case in front of the old man, there were all kinds of foreign pill bait and medicine on display, even those who cultivated immortals had to carefully consider before daring to take it, but the old man grabbed a handful casually, stuffed it directly into his mouth, and then took it with strong wine.

"Why did it stop?" The old man's voice was low, but he exuded undoubted momentum, and looked at the people below: "Then play music, continue to dance!" ”

Hearing this, the dance music in the palace immediately resumed, and the loach demon soldiers also hurriedly picked up their blades and patrolled on duty, but it was as if they were trying to escape from the Crystal Palace.

The old man sat on the couch, closed his eyes and said nothing, the elixir began to take effect, and a strange red gradually appeared on his face.

Half an hour later, the thunder had long since faded, and the twilight on the old man's body had faded, and his eyes were open and his essence flickered.

"Virtuous." The old man called, and a short hunchbacked man immediately came outside the hall and bowed respectfully to the old man.

"I don't know what the king of the mansion is calling the villain?" Gui Youde asked.

"Are the people of the Jade Xiao Sect still outside?" Qinghe Fujun asked.

Gui Youde replied: "The villain has just sent his powerful subordinates to investigate, and the people of the Yuxiao Sect have now returned to Horseshoe Bay, and they want to come and use that kind of thunder method to consume their true qi, but seeing that their efforts are in vain, they have to temporarily adjust their breath. ”

"Don't let go." Qinghe Mansion Jun said: "These immortal cultivators are the most cunning, perhaps deliberately leading us to escape from Shuifu, and then intercept and kill us halfway." ”

"The prince of the palace has a strategic mind and a clever plan, so he has naturally seen through such small intentions." There is virtue and praise.

In the past, Qinghe Mansion would only treat Gui Youde as a lucky clown who made fun of him. But now he needed these flattering words too much, and only in this way could he soothe the insecurity a little.

"Is there any news over there in the ghost market?" Qinghe Fujun asked.

"The master of Xiaoyao Cave sent someone to spread the word a few days ago, saying that they are still recruiting fellow people in the rivers and lakes, and ask the prince to hold on for a while." Gui Youde replied carefully.

"Hold on? I've been sticking to it for half a year! Qinghe Mansion Jun said angrily, and the jade cup in his hand was directly crumpled into pieces.

Gui Youde knelt on the ground and said: "Fujun, I'm afraid that the master of the Xiaoyao Cave will not have good intentions, just to see that Fujun is ugly!" ”

Qinghe Fujun didn't know this, after the drastic change in Dongshengdu, the landslide cracked, and the turbidity soared into the sky, and he found that in the place where Xiong Huaxu and the two countries meet, the strong yin and turbid qi condensed into a netherworld ghost city, and naturally summoned ghosts to come.

Originally, the king of Qinghe Mansion wanted to swallow it alone, and after killing several strong opponents, the master of the Xiaoyao Cave led a large group of demons to come, saying that the ghost city is a blessed land, and hoped that all parties would share its benefits, rather than monopolize it alone.

At that time, the king of Qinghe Mansion consumed a lot of mana, and the demon sons and grandsons under his command suffered a lot of losses, and the master of Xiaoyao Cave was clever and tongue-like, which caused the crowd to be surging, and the king of Qinghe Mansion had no choice but to retreat slightly, which laid the situation of the three families of the tomb sheep and ghost city standing side by side.
