Volume 5: The First Song 565: Calm (11)
Just when Qian Chao and the others were discussing future opponents and troubles in the belly of the mountain outside the sect, Zhang Yi, Zong Fang and Lou Qingyao also appeared outside the sect.
A few days ago, they each got a stack of blood talismans from that Mr. Ba, and they also knew how to use it, but after all, it was an extremely dangerous move to enter the forbidden land, and whether the blood talisman that they had to get in their hands was useless or not, the three of them had no bottom in their hearts, no matter how Mr. Ba patted his chest and promised that they would definitely find a place to try before they really used this thing to track those people in the money tide. Zhang Yi had been staring at Mr. Ba in Ruixuan Town to make talismans for others, because there were a lot of people invited, so it was delayed for a few days, and now it is finally busy, but Mr. Ba is still left in Ruixuan Town and has not left, and he will not be let go until they test that this blood hidden talisman is indeed effective, if this talisman is useless, then Zhang Yi and the others will not let him go.
Zong Fang also felt that it should be tested, but he felt that there was no need to go to a place that was too dangerous, so before leaving the sect, he proposed to find a place with many monsters to test it, and it was not necessary to go to the forbidden place to test, to tell the truth, the last time she almost died after breaking into the chaos stone gang Lou Qing Yao, it was Zong Fang who rescued her, but it was also that time, Zong Fang was almost frightened, as a gentleman, he had never encountered such a danger, and after going out, he had palpitations for a long time and was still uneasy, After hearing Lou Qingyao's proposal to go to the forbidden place for testing, he felt a little scared.
But Zhang Yi and Lou Qingyao felt that it was only reliable to test in the forbidden land, after all, they would use this thing to follow Qian Chao and the others into the forbidden land in the future.
The closest forbidden place outside the sect is the Thousand Needle Pine Forest, although they have seen Qian Chao and those people enter it before, and they must not have the Qingluan egg inside, but the test is just a test, and they don't really have to go deep into it to search carefully, as long as they can prove the effect of this blood hidden charm when they encounter demon beasts, so they chose the Thousand Needle Pine Forest.
Mr. Ba didn't hide anything about how to use this blood talisman, and taught them everything. As mentioned earlier, there are two kinds of blood hidden charms, one is attached to the body, Mr. Ba calls it a "hidden symbol", and the second is used to throw it out after being excited by the demon beast to attract the demon beast to chase it, which is called the "blood charm" by Mr. Ba. Hidden talismans and blood talismans should be used together, and after the concealed talisman is pasted on the body, it can greatly cover its own aura and disperse, but accidents will always happen in the forbidden land, and it will inevitably be detected by the demon beast or even directly encounter it, at this time, you must immediately use the blood talisman to lure the demon beast away.
Outside the thousand-needle pine forest, the three of them each took out a hidden talisman made of their own essence blood and pasted it on their bodies, looked at each other, and then looked at the vast pine forest and green sea in front of them, I don't know how many fierce demon beasts they are unable to resist are hidden in it, and after entering, it can be regarded as frightening step by step, so the sect does not allow the qi refining disciples to enter, this test itself has great risks, so at this point, these three people actually have some hesitation, especially Zong Fang, he has been thinking about what reason to stop this matter.
In the end, it was Lou Qingyao who bit his teeth and said:
"Let's go."
Then he was the first to enter the thousand-needle pine forest.
The second one to enter was Zhang Yi, and Zong Fang sighed and hurriedly followed.
……
After entering the Thousand Needles Pine Forest, the nervous chests of all three of them were pounding.
Before, when Qian Chao and a few people entered the forbidden place of Chaoshigang, Lou Qingyao also lost his mind and followed in in a hurry, but soon after entering, he encountered danger, and was detected by the powerful and alert middle-level demon beast from a long distance, and immediately roared angrily, the momentum was extremely amazing, Lou Qingyao fled into the air in a hurry, but the demon birds encountered in the air were far more ferocious than the demon beasts below, that time Lou Qingyao's recklessness made her face a desperate situation, if it weren't for Zong Fang to save her with the life-saving things given by her parents, I'm afraid that she would have died in the rocky hill a long time ago.
And in this test, the reason why the three of them dared to enter the forbidden land was still relying on the life-saving things given by their respective elders, Zong Fang had it, and Zhang Yi also had it, once this blood talisman was invalid, they could still escape with those treasures.
After the three of them entered the Thousand Needles Pine Forest, they didn't dare to go fast under the tension, the three of them got very close, and they kept looking around while slowly walking forward, trying to find out the possible hidden location of the demon beast in advance in this dense pine forest that blocked their vision, but nothing abnormal happened after a long time.
Although there is a blood hidden talisman, they are more curious about how Qian Chao and those people managed to enter and exit the forbidden land safely, when they followed Qian Chao and others, they were blocked by the forbidden land three times, and they could see clearly at that time, those five people did not use anything like a talisman, but after arriving here, they didn't even stop and flew directly in, so what kind of means did Qian Chao use?
Could it be that Qian Chao's methods will be even more clever than that of Mr. Ba?
Just when they thought that this place had not yet penetrated into the Thousand Needle Pine Forest, so there were few middle-level demon beasts, so they had the heart to think about other things, suddenly the breeze passing through the trees brought a fishy and unpleasant smell, although it was not strong, but the bodies of the three people suddenly froze there.
Even if they are great gentlemen, whether it is Zong Fang or Zhang Yi, including Lou Qingyao, they rarely go out to hunt demon beasts, but they all know that even the various spirit birds and spirit beasts raised by those spirit cultivators in the sect will inevitably have some taste, not to mention those demon beasts and demon birds that survive in the mountains and dense forests, the smell of those guys is even greater, it is the smell of the fishy and wild that just made them extremely nervous.
But in the blink of an eye, the wind stopped, and the smell was gone.
But under this faint smell, the three of them instantly became nervous, and their bodies immediately did not understand, and under each other's nervous gazes, the three of them could see their panic and fear in the eyes of their companions.
Pinching the blood talisman, they didn't dare to move for a while, but there was still no movement, and after a while, they suspected that it was not some demon beast watching them, but they accidentally found that there was a demon beast nearby, but they didn't know where that guy was hiding.
If it is really being watched by demon beasts, it can only mean that the effect of this hidden charm is too weak. Just as Zong Fang looked back, he felt short of breath under this tense pressure, and when he was about to retreat, he saw Lou Qingyao move there.
Lou Qingyao kept looking left and right, and then her figure floated up, less than three feet from the ground, she didn't speak, but motioned to Zong Fang and Zhang Yi to do the same, so that there would be no more sound, and then the three of them floated around cautiously around.
She was looking for the source of the smell.
In the end, it was the Imperial Spirit Monk who was more sensitive to the hiding place of the demon beast, and after turning for a while, Lou Qingyao's body stopped and stretched out her hand to signal the two of them to stop as well, and then she stretched out her hand and pointed not far from the forest.
The lair of the monster!
Zhang Yi and Zong Fang instantly became nervous.
Under the cover of shrubs and weeds, there was a small dirt bag not too far from the forest, and there was a black cave under it, and at this time, the breeze blew from that direction again, and the fishy and unpleasant smell drifted to the three people again, not only that, they were only about ten zhang away from the cave entrance at this time, this distance was far less than the distance between Lou Qingyao and the middle-level demon beast when Lou Qingyao was found in the Chaotic Stone Gang last time, what they could feel here was not only the unpleasant smell emanating from the cave, You can also feel the aura fluctuations that are so powerful that they are far superior to them emanating from that cave.
There must be a middle-level demon beast hiding in the cave, and the three of them are sure of this.
At this time, the three of them felt a sense of relief in their hearts, which at least showed that the hidden charm attached to their bodies was effective, and the fact that such a close distance had not yet been discovered was enough to prove it.
However, this only shows that the hidden charm is effective, and it is unknown how effective the blood charm is.
But at such a close distance, once it was discovered by the mid-level demon beasts in the cave, it would be a terrifying thing. With the strength of the mid-level demon beasts, it is still a matter of whether they can use the blood talisman before they die.
Thinking of this, Zong Yan gently pulled Zhang Yi and Lou Qingyao, and asked with his eyes if he could go out, since the effect of the hidden charm was proven, then he felt that this test should end here.
Zhang Yi's face tensed, so close to a powerful being who could tear himself to pieces, Zhang Yi was also a little timid at this time, as if he agreed with Zong Yan's opinion, and then looked at Lou Qingyao.
Lou Qingyao looked back at the entrance of the cave again, and after a little muttering, he motioned for the two of them to stay away from here first.
After leaving the cave far away, Zong Fang was still a little uneasy, and said in a low voice:
"It seems that this secret charm is indeed effective, and the person surnamed Ba does have the means, in this case, I think it is enough to have this result, we can go back, right?"
"What does Miss Lou mean?" Zhang Yi looked at Lou Qingyao, he always felt that this woman must have an unexpected move next.
Lou Qingyao turned around and looked in the direction of the cave again, and when he saw this, he hurriedly said:
"It's a bit too risky to test that blood talisman, I think ......"
"I still have to test it," Lou Qingyao turned around and said, "If you want to test it, you should test it all, otherwise it will be in vain?" ”
"But that's ...... It's too dangerous! Zong Fang was very anxious when he heard this, but even so, he still didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear that he would alarm the demon beasts in the cave over there and attract danger, "It's better to do this, let's let those people found by Brother Zhang test it, okay?" This will save you from any surprises! ”
After Lou Qingyao heard this, she suddenly felt a burst of disgust in her heart, she was forced to stay in the Five Spirits Sect, and she had been patient with the fake drama and fake singing of Zong Fang's void and wrongful snakes, she had long been tired of this, if it wasn't for Zong Fang's usefulness, she wouldn't bother to pay attention to this person, what Zong Fang said just now If Lou Qingyao stepped back and let him test the blood talisman, maybe Lou Qingyao would have a different opinion of him, but she looked at the fear on Zong Fang's face that couldn't be concealed, and a deep disappointment swelled up, secretly saying that as long as she could get the Qingluan egg, she would leave here immediately, The experience of this period of time has really made her fed up, and this man said that he wanted to elope with her some time ago, but I am afraid that if he really does that, it will definitely become a joke, and within half a month, he will return to the Five Spirits Sect early to ask his elders for guilt because he can't bear the hardships.
Lou Qingyao originally wanted to say, "If you think it's dangerous, you can test it for me", but when he said it, it became, "Not to mention whether the people invited by Brother Zhang will be willing to do it, it's too time-consuming, it's better like this, Brother Zong, or I'll test it, you and Brother Zhang watch for me, if there is danger or the blood talisman doesn't work, my life is in your hands." ”
"This ......"
Zhang Yi said:
"It's good that we are here to ensure that Miss Lou is safe."
