"Hidden Array"

Tang Ping looked at the formation on the ground that had been arranged by Qian Chao, then raised his eyes and asked at Qian Chao, "Qian boy, why did you get this out of here, are you afraid of going out and encountering something?" ”

Qian Chao smiled bitterly when he heard this, put away the stakes of the array, and then pointed to the stone table and stone bench on Lu Pingchuan's side, and said, "Come, let's sit down and talk about it, I have really encountered some trouble these days." ”

Hearing the word trouble, several people immediately became energetic, and after sitting down, they listened to Qian Chao carefully tell everything that had happened since returning from the last outing.

"Sister Yan," after saying this, Qian Chao looked at Yan Xuan, after all, he didn't hide the matter of Ma Hu, if you want to say who among the five people hates this Ma Hu the most, it is naturally this Sister Yan who has been tried to be light by Ma Hu, "I refining weapons for him, it's not that I'm afraid of him, it's just that although this person is hateful, he is not a useless person, I do that, first, I can stop him from worrying about us in the future, and second, this person is well-informed and experienced, and it is not useless to us, but I will deal with him in the future, Just don't let him get in the way. ”

"Well," Yan Xuan was actually a little worried about whether that Ma Hu would retaliate against a few people, and after listening to Qian Chao's words, he nodded and said, "Brother Qian, don't worry about me, besides, we didn't suffer any losses last time." ”

After listening to Qian Chao's words, although Li Jian, Tang Ping and even Lu Pingchuan still didn't like that Ma Hu, their bad feelings for this person went away a little, and now when they saw Yan Xuan say this, they didn't say anything anymore.

Tang Ping knew more about the intrigues in the sect, and after listening to Qian Chao's words, he said: "I didn't expect Wen Zhang to be such a bastard, and he actually used this method to deal with his sister at the instigation of others, although he is not the own sister of a fellow mother, but he is really not afraid that those high-level disciples of Qi refining in the sect will flock after hearing the news, if Senior Sister Wen Yuan really has something wrong outside, how can Senior Wen spare him?" ”

Qian Chao said: "I also heard in the Chengqi Hall that many of the high-level Qi Refining Senior Brothers within the Nine Xuan have gone out recently, and it is estimated that they went for the ruins found by Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Wen, I really don't know what they will do outside the sect when the time comes!" Because of this, I have hesitated, I still want to discuss with you about going out tomorrow, should I delay it for a few days, and when they have enough trouble and this turmoil has subsided, let's go out again? ”

Tang Ping was a little unimpressed when she heard this, and she said, "Turmoil? Hmph, that is, our cultivation is still low, those high-level brothers and sisters who refine qi, what they calculate every day is to build a foundation, there was no turmoil that day, this time you were involved, and you only knew some things, and these high-level disciples were not fighting outside on weekdays, which day stopped. I heard me Ruoyu say that when she was still a high-level Qi refiner, she was like this almost every day outside the sect, scrambling to grab it, we don't have to worry too much about this, if you are frightened by this, then we simply don't go out in the future, if you want me to do what we should do, just ignore the entanglements of those high-level disciples. If Wen Zhang and Han Ji come to find trouble, let's find a way to deal with them, and let them know that they know that they are powerful! ”

After listening to Tang Ping's words, several people also nodded, how could they delay the experience of going out because of one or two guys with evil intentions.

Lu Pingchuan was not interested in Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Wen, but outside of his words, he heard that there seemed to be a lot of good things in that ruins, so he said with great interest: "Eh, I said Brother Qian, where is that ruin, what good things are hidden in it, can we go out this time and try our luck?" ”

Tang Ping listened to it and said angrily: "Brother Lu......"

"Brother Lu," Qian Chao said, "The ruins that Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Wen found, let's forget it, even if Senior Sister Luo asked me to refine the item that unlocked the ruins formation, they were more wary of me, not only did they not mention the ruins at all, but even after that thing was refined, the two of them carried me behind my back when they tried to use that thing, firstly, I really didn't know where the ruins were, and secondly, even if a few of us knew the location of the ruins, we couldn't go, Many high-level qi refining disciples in the sect are eyeing Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Wen, as long as the two of them leave the sect, those people will follow, even if there is really something in the ruins that is very beneficial to the foundation of the qi refining disciples, with the cultivation of a few of us to get there, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious and less auspicious. ”

Lu Pingchuan had no choice but to say, "Eh, hehe, forget it." ”

"But the ruins, since Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Wen can find it, we can also find it, didn't we find one last time, there are two more on my map, it is estimated that it should also be that kind of ruins, but this time we will go out and work the spiritual spring that Brother Li and Little Sister Tang wanted."

Hearing Qian Chao say this, Tang Ping's eyes lit up and asked, "Qian boy, when you say that, do you already know where there is a spiritual spring?" ”

As soon as Tang Ping said, Li Jian also looked at Qian Chao.

"I am not completely sure," Qian Chao said, "But even if you don't win, the difference will not be far, there is a place outside the sect, there have always been many wood spirit beasts that have been hunted there, and wood spirit beasts like to live in places where the water aura is strong, that is, near the spiritual spring, that place I have memorized, and when we go out, we will look for it there." ”

"Wood Spirit Beast!" Tang Ping was a little worried when she heard this, "It's not far away and it's dangerous, right?" ”

Qian Chao smiled when he heard this: "I was about to tell you that I have a new means, if it is arranged properly, I am not afraid of high-level demon beasts." ”

After speaking, Qian Chao took out five big iron nails from the storage bag.

"This thing, I remember you showed us before, it seems to be ......"

Tang Ping felt familiar when she saw it, but unfortunately she couldn't remember when she saw Qian Chao fiddling with these things.

"At this time, the lock spirit pile, the first time Senior Sister Luo asked me to refine the weapon, it was to refine this thing, and that was still the time for us to refine the second layer of qi."

"Yes, I remember, but you didn't know how to use this thing at the time, could it be now?"

"Well, after so long, I've finally found some doorways, look!" As he spoke, Qian Chao arranged the five locking spirit piles on the ground, and took out a spirit stone for everyone to see, and then threw it into the middle of the five locking spirit piles.

Seeing that the spirit stone was as quickly melting as a small piece of ice under the summer sun, several people couldn't help but look at each other.

With the current cultivation of these people, a day of meditation cannot completely absorb a spirit stone, and in addition to the consumption of its own spiritual energy, there is no other way to break or consume the spirit stone, and now a few people have seen the spirit stone disappear, and it only took a few breaths, if the demon beast is trapped in that array, it is really allowed to be slaughtered, and if this method is arranged in advance to deal with the monk, the trapped monk is probably similar to the demon beast.

"Where's the spirit stone?" Yan Xuan asked in surprise.

Qian Chao replied: "It was absorbed and consumed by those five lock spirit piles, not to mention the demon beasts in those five piles, even if any of us step in, the aura of the whole body will be quickly absorbed at all, but," Speaking of this, Qian Chao took out five small signs from the storage bag and put them on the stone table, "This is used to restrain that formation." ”

The five small brands were the same size, and at first glance they were refined by Qian Chao himself, each with a small hole connected to the silk thread, Qian Chao took it from it at will, tied the silk thread on it to his wrist, and then stood up and said "Look at me" and raised his legs and walked into the five lock spirit piles.

Thinking about what he had just seen, Yan Xuan was still a little worried and wanted to stop the tide of money, but was stopped by Tang Ping.

The four of them were staring at Qian Chao, he just said that anyone who enters the middle of the five piles will quickly be sucked dry, but now Qian Chao is in it as if nothing happened, turned around twice, walked a few steps, and then saw that Qian Chao also found another spirit stone inside, compared with the four companions and threw it to his feet, this second spirit stone quickly dissolved at Qian Chao's feet, but Qian Chao shrugged his shoulders casually, indicating that he had nothing to do.

Then Qian Chao walked out, still sat down in front of the stone table, and took off the small sign on his wrist before saying: "Now that there is no it, I don't dare to go in again, as long as I go in, I will almost lie there." ”

Only then were the four of them convinced.

One piece per person, Qian Chao gave these small signs to everyone, and instructed that if this formation is used outside, this small sign must be tied to the wrist or hung around the neck.

"Money boy, you mean that if you encounter a powerful demon beast, let's use this method to lure it into your formation, right?"

Qian Chao nodded: "Almost." ”

"Wow, then it's much easier for us to go out and meet powerful demon beasts......"

"No, there are a lot of limitations to this method."

"Oh? What are the limitations? ”

"If we know in advance where there are powerful demon beasts, we can naturally arrange them before we start, but if we are caught off guard outside and encounter powerful demon beasts, even if this method is used, it is estimated that those demon beasts will be careful when they see it, and they will not be easily fooled. Therefore, this locking spirit array can be used as a trap arranged in advance, but it is not suitable as a means to deal with the enemy. ”

"Well," Tang Ping nodded, "You're right, but it's better than nothing, I'll go out tomorrow and find a chance to try it out and see how it goes." ”

"And ......," Qian Chao said, "this method can be said to be the ...... I really stole from me."

"Know, know, we won't say it."

Li Jian asked at this time: "Brother Qian, how powerful can this formation trap a demon beast?" ”

Qian Chao thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Senior Brother Fang Yan in our inner hall once said that he personally saw Senior Sister Luo use this method to trap a low-level and high-grade demon beast, and then easily kill it. ”

A lower-level and high-grade demon beast, no matter what kind of it is, it can only be killed by a foundation building monk, and even if Senior Sister Luo is powerful, it is just a cultivation of qi refining!

Li Jian naturally knew this, and was surprised when she heard Qian Chao's words, but Tang Ping said excitedly: "Wow, so powerful!" We'll have to give it a try. ”

Later, Lu Pingchuan finally presented the delicacies, and several people sat around and continued to talk while tasting the food.

Among them, Yan Xuan also said about a recent incident in Qixia Mountain, which was naturally not about Senior Sister Min's apprenticeship, but about Senior Brother Bian refining Zhuji Dan in Nanyutang.

"Wow, that Senior Brother Bian is amazing, he can actually refine this elixir." Tang Ping was very impressed when she heard it.

"Sister Yan, I don't know much about your Qixia Mountain, but in our Jiuxuan, like the fire eye in the Chengqi Hall, in fact, the Qi refining disciples can also arrange one by themselves, so that they can refine the weapon in their own residence without leaving home, but it is just a lot of effort. That Senior Brother Bian heard you say that he has also been a disciple in Qixia Mountain for a long time, why don't you find a quiet place to refine the pill, such a precious pill as Zhuji Dan, how could that Senior Brother Bian refine it in a place like Nanyutang where there are many people, aren't you afraid of trouble? ”

Qian Chao remembered the fire eye in Senior Sister Wenyuan's residence, he had always been very envious, but there was also an advantage to refining weapons in Chengqi Hall, that is, there were many people talking, and many things in the sect could always be heard. But when it comes to an elixir like Tsukidan, you really should find a secluded place to refine it.

"This is not clear, but there are indeed disciples in Qixia Mountain who are alchemy in their own residences, as for whether Senior Brother Bian's residence has such an arrangement, I really don't know, I think there should be none. However, after Senior Brother Bian's Zhuji Dan was refined, there was indeed a lot of trouble. ”

Tang Ping listened and asked, "Are there many high-level disciples who want to buy his elixir?" ”

"Yes," Yan Xuan said, "Not only are there a lot of people who want to buy it, it is said that those high-level disciples in the sect who are eager to build a foundation almost squeezed through the door of Senior Brother Bian, and that Senior Brother Bian was so annoyed that he simply found an opportunity to sneak out, and he didn't know where to hide, he should have gone to retreat and build a foundation." Many people first searched for it in the sect, and then now they have gone outside the sect to look for it, as for whether they have found it or not, I don't know if Senior Brother Bian has built a foundation. ”

"Does your Senior Brother Bian have no mentorship?" Tang Ping asked.

"Well, Senior Brother Bian does not have a master."

After listening to this, Tang Ping said slowly: "There is a lot of excitement outside the sect, and it has always been that if the disciples in the sect have no teacher, when they want to retreat and build a foundation, they must be cautious, even if they have made complete preparations for the spirit stone and the elixir, it must be even more so." ”

"Why is that?"

"Do you think, there is no disciple of the teacher, all rely on their own hard work all the way to the close to the foundation, the time will definitely not be short, in these many years may make some friends but will inevitably offend some enemies, if those people learn the news, how can they let him build the foundation smoothly, if he succeeds in building the foundation, after the cultivation is greatly increased, how can they forget the grudges accumulated before, they will inevitably find a way to destroy, often the battle at this time is the most dangerous, it is very common to run away with serious injuries or even die on the spot!"

"That's it!"

Not to mention Yan Xuan, the rest of the people were also surprised when they heard it.

"Isn't that Senior Brother Bian dangerous?"

"This is not clear, I hope that Senior Brother Bian of Qixia Mountain can build the foundation smoothly, don't let those people find it outside."

After using the food, a few people went to the crane tower as usual under Tang Ping's pampering, and finally made an appointment to go to the temple together tomorrow, and then they broke up and said goodbye.
