Chapter IV
In the next few days, Cheng E secretly kept an eye on Miss Yao, always observing whether she had any abnormal behavior.
And Ying Yu and Lan Qin are also like a normal old husband and wife, caring for each other, and they also quarrel from time to time. Whoever sees it will not be suspicious.
It's just that Xiao Yu has been sleeping all the time, and he can't hide it. Lan Qin pretended to be inadvertently and said to Miss Yao, "The child's life is hard, and he can't transform until now." Her father begged the Demon King to give him a Transformation Pill. If it is fast for one or two years, and if it is slow, it may be ten days and half a month, and the child will be able to wake up and succeed in the illusion! ”
This explanation convinced Miss Yao. Maybe it's the same experience, she often helps Lan Qin take care of Xiao Yu, conscientious and considerate.
After a few days of calm and calm, seeing that they would be able to pass through the wasteland and enter Kunlun Xuan in a day or two, Cheng E and Ying Yu couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
That night, all the people went to sleep one after another.
Cheng E, who was on night duty outside, suddenly pulled out his long knife and stared at the darkness in front of him with extreme vigilance.
"Who is it? Come out! ”
"The alertness is not low!" With a low chuckle, a figure slowly walked out of the shadows. Cheng E knew that it was one of the three demon venerables of the demon clan, Xue Jiu.
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to meet Zhou Zheng, Zhenjun."
"When you meet our true king, you can come openly! Why hide your head and tail so much? Say, why did it come about? ”
Cheng Ecai didn't believe his nonsense and was always vigilant.
"Look at you, how can you not trust people? Can I come in broad daylight? There are so many people watching behind you, even if I dare to come, will Zhou Zheng dare to see him? ”
Cheng E was stunned for a moment, thinking that what Xue Jiu said also made sense, this kid wouldn't really have anything important to see Zhenjun, right?
"Why do you want to see our true king?" Cheng E still didn't dare to be careless, he had to find out if Xue Jiu was making trouble?
"I can't tell you about this! I must tell Zhou Zheng face to face! I'll tell you again, it's a matter of life and death! Believe it or not! Otherwise, you can take me to Zhou Zheng quickly, or I will leave now! Anyway, I'm also talking for others, and your life and death have nothing to do with me! ”
This made Cheng E look very embarrassed. Xue Jiu is a member of the demon clan, the purpose of his coming is unknown, so he rashly took him to see Zhou Zheng, in case it was a trap, it would be a great dereliction of duty for Cheng E! However, if Xue Jiu really has something important, if he is delayed, he can't afford this responsibility!
Just when he was distracted and was thinking of a way, Xue Jiu in front of him stabbed a sword at him without warning and as fast as lightning. At the same time, a cold wind rose behind Cheng E, and an ambush man suddenly attacked him.
Cheng E was shocked.
However, he was a third-level immortal-level cultivator, while Xue Jiu was only a first-level immortal-level cultivator. Cheng E didn't dodge or dodge, he pounced on Xue Jiu with a fit, and protected his chest with a horizontal sword to block the tip of the long sword. At the same time, he stepped forward and narrowly avoided the sneak attack from behind.
Xue Jiu saw that the sneak attack failed, so he turned around and ran. How could Cheng E let him go so easily and chase after him.
didn't run a few steps, Xue Jiu suddenly turned around and fought again, and the person who sneaked up behind Cheng E also attacked from behind again, forming a flanking attack on Cheng E.
The people behind are also on the first level of the immortal rank, and Cheng E is not afraid at all. Except for the first incident, the two of them suddenly took the lead, forcing Cheng E to be a little embarrassed. After that, when Cheng E eased up and did his best, even if the two of them attacked together, they would no longer be Cheng E's opponents.
The person who attacked behind him was Xin Si, he cooperated with Xue Jiu, fighting and retreating, but he pestered Cheng E.
After waiting for a hundred and ten moves, Cheng E suddenly woke up that this was a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and when he wanted to return quickly, he couldn't distinguish the direction anymore.
Oops! Cheng E immediately thought that he was introduced into the formation by Xue Jiu and them.
It was dark all around, except for Xue Jiu and Xin Si, who were fighting with him, there was no light or sound.
This is? Cheng E suddenly thought that this was the Demon Clan's Great Array of Covering the Sky! Under this array, the laws of heaven and earth were lost, and the spiritual power of heaven and earth was extinct. If you can't break the formation as soon as possible, anyone who is not a demon will be consumed alive!
Cheng E was shocked into a cold sweat! He quickly got rid of the entanglement between Xue Jiu and Xin Si, and quickly wandered around, looking for the key to breaking the formation.
Besides, Zhou Zheng, Cheng E's fight alarmed him immediately. He walked out of the tent and saw Ying Yu also wake up and hurried over. He immediately asked Ying Yu to stick to the tent and not to move, and he rushed to the direction of Cheng E's fight.
Not far from the camp, Zhou Zheng saw a man with a cloak standing in the middle of the road waiting for him.
"Big brother, when you see me, there's no need to engage in such a big battle, right?" Zhou Zheng is very helpless!
The cloaked man smiled, "It's better to be careful!" Follow me! ”
As he spoke, the cloaked man threw a punch at Zhou Zheng, and Zhou Zheng also symbolically swung his fist in response to the enemy. The two fought and retreated, and after a while they came to a silent and uninhabited mountaintop.
"There are too many spies spying on you, I have to be cautious!" As he spoke, the cloaked man took off his cloak, revealing the handsome face of the original fire.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"
"The matter of Wolf Yuan..."Yuan Huo was still thinking about the wording, and Zhou Zheng admitted it directly. This made Yuan Huo happy and apprehensive!
"The wolf is here, and the demon pill is also here. You're here to grab the Demon Pill this time? ”
Yuan Huo shook his head, "I can't rob you!" However, for the sake of the demon pill, the demon lord may have to take action! I mean..."
"Big brother, I understand. These demon pills were refined by a demon fairy by himself, and there were three drops of demon blood. The Demon Pill can help people who have cultivated at the Heavenly Rank to advance to the Immortal Rank. Demon blood, the effect is even greater, once it has the ability to refine, at least it is the cultivation of the ninth layer of the immortal level, and it may even help the person who refines to ascend to the immortal realm.
The reason why these things are here with me is because I promised that senior that I would send the demon pill and demon blood back to Kunlun Xu! ”
"Brother, I know it will make it very difficult for you," Yuan Huo hesitated for a while, and finally spoke, "It's just that if we want the demon clan to be strong and prosperous, these demon pills and demon blood are very important to us!" ”
"I understand! So, if you notify the demon lord to come and grab it, I won't blame you! It's just that you only have one day! Once we enter Kunlun Xu, it will not be easy to snatch it away! ”
"No!" Yuan Huo shook his head, "I won't inform the Demon Lord!" I will never let a third person know about the demon pill on you! You are my brother and your safety is more important than anything else! ”
Zhou Zheng was a little surprised. "Demon pill, you're not going to ask for it?"
"Nope! I told you about the importance of the Demon Pill to the Demon Race. So, Demon Pill, I'm determined to win! ”
Zhou Zheng was a little confused, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Yuan Huo smiled bitterly, "Naturally, I grabbed it from you!" How many can I grab is a few! ”
"How sure are you that you can beat me?"
"Not a single percent!"
"Then you still rob it?"
"Or else?"
Zhou Zheng nodded, "I'll give you fifty demon pills." Demon blood, the fairy's daughter has already used one drop, and there are only two drops left, and I can also share one drop with you. However, you need to think about your rhetoric. ”
Yuan Huo instantly understood what Zhou Zheng meant. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "I said that I found Lady Navy's and killed her. Snatched from her. ”
That's a good reason. It's just, how did you find out? Where was it found? Have you figured it out? ”
"This, if I think about it carefully, I will definitely not show my feet!"
"Okay! I believe in you! As he spoke, Zhou Zheng took out fifty demon pills and a drop of demon blood from the ring and handed them to Yuan Huo.
The original fire took it cautiously and held it tightly in his arms.
"Brother! Why? ”
"My master, my apprentices are all on your territory, I can't stammer you?"
Listening to Zhou Zheng's ridicule, Yuan Huo finally stretched his serious expression and smiled.
"You kid, you've learned to be poor!"
"Big brother, don't you think there's a problem with our side of the world?" Zhou Zheng suddenly diverted the topic.
"Questions? What's the problem? ”
"Don't you think that there are too few immortal ranks? I mean, except for the Division of Punishment and the Mirror of Demons. ”
Yuan Huo knew that Zhou Zheng was not a person without a purpose, and he immediately thought deeply.
"Not bad! I don't know about the human race, but, the demon race, I, Xue Jiu, and Xin Si were all promoted through the magic crystal, and even the two existing demon masters, except for one who is a demon clan, the other is also an immortal level that he entered through the empowerment and cultivation of the older generation!
Before, I had stayed at the Heavenly Rank Peak Great Perfection Stage for so long, but I still couldn't feel the aura of the Heavenly Tribulation. I feel that no matter how hard I try, I can't break through that bottleneck! What do you mean..."
"I don't have evidence right now. However, the Division of Discipline and Punishment has a Heavenly Ladder Holy Stage, and disciples who have reached the peak of the Heavenly Rank Great Perfection can only be promoted if they go there! ”
"I've heard about this. There is also a similar Divine Demon Mirror, called the Divine Demon Table, and after the disciples reach cultivation, they also go there to break through the immortal level. ”
"Big brother, don't you think it's strange?"
Yuan Huo nodded with a serious face, "Before, I never thought about it so much, but now, after you say this, it is indeed strange!" I'll send someone to check it out! ”
"No, you don't! I've sent someone to check! The fewer people who know about this matter, the better, and you must not startle the snake and arouse the vigilance of the Law and Punishment Division and the Divine Demon Mirror! ”
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Are you giving me these demon pills for something? ”
Zhou Zheng likes to deal with smart people, and the original fire is thorough.
"If, if someone really did something to our side of the world, guess how high this person's cultivation will be? How much power? ”
Hara Huo was taken aback! If you want to do something to a heaven and earth, you can only be at the level of the master or god master, and you must mobilize a lot of resources to do it!
At the same time, Yuan Huo suddenly realized that the rumors about the demon pill were spreading this time, and it was also very strange, could it be that Zhou Zheng did it intentionally?
"Brother, why are you doing this? Something about the Demon Pill leak! Yuan Huo asked puzzled.
"Haha, big brother, you still guessed it!" Zhou Zheng let out a long sigh, "Big brother, put away the wolf plain, I can do it quietly." Why is there such a big movement? It is to let everyone guess the existence of the demon pill!
The Department of Law and Punishment and the Divine Demon Mirror are both the spokesmen of the Heavenly Court in the human world, if this matter is really related to these two departments, is it their ulterior motives and private opinions? Or is there a golden immortal behind it? These are unknowns!
Therefore, the matter of the Demon Pill must be known to the God and Demon Mirror and the Law and Punishment Division, and let the Demon Race, the Human Race, and even the Demon Race all know about it!
In this way, when the time comes, whether it is a demon or a human race who has obtained the demon pill, a group of immortal level cultivators will be born, and it will not arouse the suspicion of that person or those who are further suspicious!
You can also see how quickly the Disciplinary Division responded! How nervous they were about the possible outflow of the demon pill! Now, I just don't know what the attitude of the Divine Demon Mirror is? ”
"I can ask through the inside, on the side. It's just that your situation will be dangerous! ”
"Not dangerous!" Zhou Zheng shook his head, "If my eldest brother can help me, I won't be in danger at all!" ”
"How can I help?"
"Choose the candidate as soon as possible, let everyone take the demon pill as soon as possible, and then leak the fake news that you have obtained the demon pill! In addition, I'll give you another ten, and you'll find a way to give them to those sects! ”
"You want to balance the strength of the demons and the human race?" Yuan Huo asked suspiciously, a little unhappy in his heart.
"Wrong! I guess the human race and the demon race can't fight! Your common enemies now are the Gods, the Demon Mirror, and the Law and Punishment Division! After everyone's strength has improved, the things that heaven and earth have been done will be announced to the public! At that time, it will definitely lead to a big war! It's best, let's pull the demon clan again! ”
Yuan Huo quickly understood Zhou Zheng's intentions, but he still had a lot of concerns.
"Brother, as you said yourself, the cultivation of the demon clan has not been controlled. Could it be that the demon clan is in league with them? Besides, even if they are not in a group, the current power of the demon clan is divided in three directions, like a plate of scattered sand, can they unite together? ”
This is also what Zhou Zheng is most worried about but also the most uncontrollable.
"Take one step at a time! Let's improve our strength first! ”
For this, the original fire agrees! Suddenly, something occurred to him.
"Give me the demon pill, is it also something you thought about early on?"
Zhou Zheng laughed, "If you don't come, I will definitely not take the initiative to give it to you!" However, you are my eldest brother, and I know that you will definitely come to me to verify the matter of the demon pill! ”
"You!" Yuan Huo pointed at Zhou Zheng angrily, "It makes me feel awkward for a long time, and I have been thinking about how to get the demon pill from you!" ”
After chatting about business, both of them relaxed. Zhou Zheng couldn't help but ask about the situation of his master Su Xi and apprentice Shao Mingjie.
"Mr. Su is still the same, living in a simple house, and hardly leaving his small courtyard. Your apprentice is really powerful, he has learned all the skills of the old gentleman, and now, he has completely become the master of the main pillar.
Now, Mr. Su is no longer taking patients, and all the patients who visit him are looking for Mingjie, a little miracle doctor. By the way, the name of your little miracle doctor has been completely inherited by this kid! This kid is also ingenious, telling everyone that Mr. Su is an old miracle doctor, and his master Zhou is a miracle doctor, he is a little miracle doctor! If everyone thinks it's inappropriate, he can only be called a little miracle doctor, and he will never dare to be as famous as the master! ”
Zhou Zheng was very happy in his heart, and felt that Shao Mingjie could still have his own master in his heart, and he would love him in vain!
The feud of Shao Mingjie's family, Zhou Zheng has never forgotten. The reason why he didn't use the power in his hand to kill that scum in Tianlu Mountain was to leave this opportunity to kill the enemy to his apprentice!
"How's that little girl Yuzhu? Master promised to take her as an apprentice back then, how is she learning now? ”
"She," Yuan Huo shook his head, "it's really not the material to study medicine!" Mr. Su didn't agree to accept her back then, just because she was not talented enough in this area! You don't know, what Mingjie can learn in one day, she hasn't understood the principle in ten days and half a month! You don't know Mr. Su's temper, so in a fit of anger, you directly asked Mingjie to teach her. If it weren't for your face, I guess I would have been knocked out of the wall by the old gentleman! ”
"If that's the case, I'm still hurting her!" Zhou Zheng seemed to blame himself, "I knew today, I shouldn't have encouraged her to study medicine in the first place!" ”
"How can I blame you for this? It was she who wanted to worship under Su Laomen! However," Yuan Huo looked at Zhou Zheng meaningfully, "If you have a chance, you can meet Yuzhu!" ”
"What's wrong?" Zhou Zheng was a little puzzled.
"You really don't know?" Yuan Huo looked at Zhou Zheng with some confusion.
"What the hell is going on?"
"Yuzhu, you won't marry!"
"What?" Zhou Zheng looked surprised. He didn't remember any other opportunities for mutual affection with Yuzhu. He has always regarded Yuzhu as his sister.
She said, "You've seen everything you should have seen and shouldn't have seen." In this life, you will not marry! ”
"Big brother, listen to me!"
Yuan Huo waved his hand, "Don't explain it to me!" When you come back from Kunlunxu, I will arrange an opportunity for you to meet in private! ”
Seeing that Zhou Zheng still wanted to shirk, Yuan Huo's face sank, "That's it!" Don't go! ”
