In the far north, there are plateau glaciers, and in the summer, glacial water melts and irrigates the meadows of the desert. At the confluence of the rivers, nomads gathered, built cities to defend against foreign enemies, lived and traded in the city, grazed cattle outside the city, and many tents were also distributed.

And in this desert, the city that can rank first is Scorpion City. It is the largest city in the entire desert and the most populous. But this kind of border town is naturally not as good as the hinterland of Middle-earth, but it has a different flavor.

To the north of Scorpion City is the Far North, and it is also an extremely dangerous place, in addition to being uninhabited, there are many unknown beasts infested, all of them are extremely fierce and blood-drinking. It is said that there are often some rare treasures here, mysterious materials that have been used to make magic weapons. Many disciples of Xuanqingguan have come here, and in order to find their ideal materials, they often go and never return.

Therefore, he didn't dare to come here alone, Li Yiming was guided by Jingyi a few days ago, and he was sure that he would have some opportunities here, but this time the task was not to find something for him, but to have other important things.

The six of them flew for three days in a row, and at noon they came to the outside of the Scorpion City, and saw that there were many herdsmen herding sheep and horses, so they found a tent and asked the store for some milk tea, and trimmed it a little, and at the same time, the senior brother Ye Huan also began to arrange this task.

"This mission is to find a person, this person is Uncle Wuchenzi, I don't know too many clues now, and I only know that he is in a crowded place."

It turned out to be looking for someone, and there were no specific clues, which was indeed a bit embarrassing, no wonder the hall master didn't come out and handed over this problem to a few disciples. The six of them sat in the tent, and although they had not rested for many days, they were still uncomfortable with the unpleasant smell in the tent. After a few sips of salty milk tea for a short time, this kind of water and soil adaptation was extremely strong, and they all put down their cups one after another, preferring to drink boiled water rather than drink this thing.

Ye Huan said again: "In order to find Uncle Wuchen faster, everyone began to inquire separately after entering the city in the afternoon, and then went back to the inn every night to communicate with each other. ”

Zhang Peng has always been straightforward, and it seems that he likes the taste of this milk tea, and he poured several cups of milk pot in a row. But listening to Ye Huan's assignment, there were also a lot of questions, he asked: "Senior Brother Ye, among the seven of us, it is you and Senior Brother Hu Quan who know Uncle Wuchen, in my opinion, the two of you should lead the team separately, so that there will be no situation where you don't know each other even if you find it." ”

Hu Quan replied: "What Senior Brother Zhang Peng said is extremely true, Senior Brother and I have to be separated, but how can the rest of the people be combined appropriately?" You can express your opinion on this. ”

Senior Brother Ye Huan nodded and said, "Uncle Wuchenzi left Xuanqingguan more than thirty years ago, and it was very sudden at that time, and I don't know the specific reason, so I heard Master say this once, saying that he had done something wrong and was expelled from Xuanqingguan by the master." Although Hu Quan and I know each other, we don't have a master-apprentice relationship with Uncle Wuchen, although we have met a few times, we are not very familiar with each other. If he is found, it will be a big problem if he does not go back. ”

Ling Guiyan, who had been listening from the sidelines, saw the stitches at this time and said, "That's not simple, just tie him back and resume his life." ”

Gui Yan's words were amazing, and the other six people were stunned, Hu Quan was the first to rush and say: "Alas, is my sister stupid, Uncle Wuchen is not an idle person, I want to tie you up, I don't dare." ”

Ling Guiyan also felt that he was speaking lightly, and felt a little out of shape, so he glanced at Hu Quan, and then asked Ye Huan, "Senior Brother Ye, is Uncle Wuchenzi very powerful?" ”

Ye Huan said with a smile: "He was above me before he left, and if he has stagnated all these years, he should be on a par with me." In this way, you don't have to worry about this problem, you just ask, if you find it, you can only pass it on to the head if you can't persuade it. ”

Xi Yun said: "That's the best, let's group it." ”

After Xi Yun finished speaking, she looked at everyone, and it was best to keep her eyes on Ye Huan and say, "Senior Brother Ye, it's better for you to assign it." ”

Ye Huan and Xi Yun glanced at each other, although they had always been calm and composed, but this moment of looking at each other caused ripples in their hearts, and both sides felt a little inexplicably uncomfortable, and hurriedly avoided it.

All this was clearly seen by Guiyan, but this time she didn't deliberately coax, just deflated her mouth slightly, then raised her eyebrows, faced to the side, and teased herself.

Ye Huan calmed down a little, looked at everyone, and saw that Xi Yun was also embarrassed on the side, he thought for a while and said: "The people with the lowest cultivation here are Senior Brother Hao and Senior Brother Li, but Senior Brother Hao can heal alchemy pills, which will still be of great help, and Senior Brother Li heard that it is the key to this mission, and he must also be deeply involved in it." In this way, I will be in a group with Senior Sister Xi Yun and Senior Brother Zhang Peng, and the rest will be led by Senior Brother Hu Quan in the second group. What do you think? ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xi Yun with his spare eyes, and saw that she also raised her head to look at her, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Now that the entire Xuanqing Temple has spread all over the world, Ye Huan and Xi Yun, Hu Quan and Ling Guiyan may become husband and wife, and the most promising pair is Xi Yun and Ye Huan. The reason why the senior brother is so divided is also a little selfish, but it is also reasonable.

Each hall of this Xuanqing Temple is already in its own way, plus the self-cultivation ranks first, and the disciples in different halls rarely get together, and this time they are finally able to perform the task together, and they must create a little opportunity for themselves.

Ye Huan's group is actually just the two of him, but I am afraid it will be too obvious to say this directly, and pulling Zhang Peng is also a last resort.

However, if Zhang Peng is interested, he should take the initiative to go to the second group. But he still didn't find the mystery in it, but he came out first and said: "I think this is okay, I will be in a group with the senior brother, and I hope that the senior brother will give more advice." ”

After finishing speaking, he gave Ye Huan a bow, and Ye Huan also came and went, but only he knew what he thought in his heart.

Gui Yan is 10,000 unwilling to be in a group with Hu Quan, but if she is assigned to a group with Ye Huan and Xi Yun, she will be absolutely reluctant. Now there are at least two junior brothers, and they won't be facing Hu Quan all day long, which makes her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Since the last time they went to the Great Wilderness, the two have been together for several months, and they don't deal with each other for anything, and this time they have to get together again, which is really helpless. But after thinking about it, you can find Hao Dayun and Li Yiming to be angry, and it is also a good place to go.

He immediately replied, "Well, that's fine." ”

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, for fear that something would change.

The rest of the people, Hu Quan, will definitely not have any opinions, and Xi Yun is not easy to say, just silent on the side. Zhang Peng has also expressed himself as a member. And in the end, the two who were left were Li Yiming and Hao Dayun, who seemed to be even more soft-spoken, and could only obey the arrangement. But Hao Dayun thought for a while, and in order to show his existence, he said: "Well, I personally don't have any opinions." ”

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Li Yiming, and when he answered, he was the only one who had not expressed any opinions.

Although I was very happy with Xi Yun, I felt that I could talk about something with her, but how could I say it directly at this time, I could only go with the flow and say, "Okay, just listen to the arrangement of the senior brother." ”

"Okay, that's it, let's go into the city, and then find an inn to stay in first."

Then he got up and led the people into the city with the flow of people.

In order not to attract the attention of others, everyone launched a disguise technique when they came down, and only Li Yiming could not use this simple spell. It's just that when he came out, he had already taken off his Taoist clothes and changed into civilian clothes, so it didn't matter.

Together, the seven of them walked into the flow of people into the city. These herdsmen, dressed in nomadic costumes, and many of them carried camels and horses into the city with many goods, and these people looked like merchants who had come here to do business. There are also some people who are dressed in clothes similar to them, and these people know at a glance that they are from the hinterland of Middle-earth, but where they are, no one knows, and of course there is no need to ask.

Walking through the crowd of locals, when entering the city, a few soldiers at the city gate were asking questions, and when they saw people dressed in non-local clothes, they would ask a few more questions. They were uniformly dressed, wearing fur hats and scimitars around their waists, all of them fierce and vicious, and they did not seem to be able to speak at all.

Li Yiming has a way to deal with this kind of person, after all, he was born with mud legs, unlike others, most of them have prominent family backgrounds and don't care about the world. Li Yiming stepped forward and took the initiative to accosting one of the guards with a knife.

"Military master, military master."

The soldier who was called by Li Yiming glanced at him, and also looked at the group behind him, and at a glance he knew that it was a person from other places, and his eyes were even more disdainful, and said, "What are you outsiders doing in the city?" ”

Although Li Yiming was unhappy, he still said with oil: "This military master, we are all merchants, we want to go into the city to collect some furs and mountain goods, and I hope that the military master will let us go." ”

"Go, go, it's you speculative merchants who have made the prices of Scorpion City sparse, and there is an order from above that you foreign merchants are not allowed to enter the city."

Li Yiming saw that he directly hit someone else's knife, and it was useless to explain more, so he directly sacrificed the killer idea. He took out a piece of gold from his bosom, quietly stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and said, "Master, I am wrong, we are going to the city to visit our relatives, you see that we have no baggage in our bodies, and we have not come on horseback, so we are not merchants. This little money was taken by the military master to drink wine for the brothers. ”

When the soldier took the money, he didn't look carefully, but after weighing it, he knew that it was not light, so he looked around and said, "Oh, go relatives, then you can enter, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, these seven people, right, then fast forward." ”
