Chapter 9 Cooperation without Trust
This is the first time that a demon beast has appeared in Yangping City.
Although it happened suddenly, no one would doubt the power of Yangping City's protective formation.
Xingzhou is also ranked among the three thousand states in the immortal cultivation world, and its main city will naturally not be far behind.
The protective formation of Yangping City was personally set by the first sect master of the Qianyuan Sect, and every subsequent sect master needed to take on the responsibility of maintaining and repairing the formation.
The monks panicked for a moment, but the trust in Yangping City and Qianyuan Sect in their hearts quickly overpowered the fear of the fox demon, and the initial chaos slowly subsided.
Ye Yousheng hurried towards the city gate while recalling the major events that had happened in his previous life.
Before he was rescued by Qin Hao, he didn't know anything about this immortal cultivation realm.
It wasn't until he was brought back to Tianyi Sect that he began to make up for the knowledge of this world.
But that time came too late and lasted too short.
Before he could take a good look at the world and be ready to embrace it again, Qin Hao, who brought him to the "new world", died in the Tianyi Sect she loved.
When Ye Yousheng arrived, he only saw those "murderers" surrounding her corpse, discussing how to use her last bit of value.
Among them, there is a nine-tailed demon fox with a snow-white body.
Ye Yousheng wasn't sure if the six-tailed demon fox that appeared in Yangping City now was the one who killed Qin Hao in the future, but he could make more preparations.
For example, if you collect more information about the demon fox now, even if they are not the same one, you can rely on it more in the future.
When Ye Yousheng arrived, the law enforcement team was already in place, and they each stood in the position of the city protection formation.
Except for the initial attack, the demon fox unexpectedly calmed down now, just playing with it, sweeping the barrier that enveloped the entire Yangping City with its tail from time to time.
Each time it causes the barrier to shake slightly, but it remains intact at all times.
Ye Yousheng felt very strange.
The demon fox didn't seem to have a strong desire to attack Yangping City, but if he came to the monk's main city just for a moment's fun, it was really incomprehensible.
Now that almost all the sect masters of the major sects in Xingzhou are in Yangping City, if it doesn't leave, it may have to stay here forever.
Ye Yousheng stood under the eaves in confusion, observing the six-tailed demon fox that could almost cover the sky through the gaps in the bricks.
The law control team has arrived, and the movement of the demon fox has already made such a big noise, why hasn't a sect master come over yet? Qianyuanzong, as the largest sect in Xingzhou, why didn't Qianyuanzong send someone over to preside over the scene?
This question did not bother Ye Yousheng for a long time.
Because soon, he saw Shen Yingyao holding a long sword and rushing to the city gate with the disciples of Qianyuan Sect.
"I am the young sect master of the Qianyuan Sect, and I came to drive away the demon fox on the order of the sect master."
Shen Yingyao raised his long sword and aimed it at the lazy demon fox under the gaze of many monks.
Seeing this, the monks' hearts, which were already extremely trusting in the Qianyuan Sect, became more and more firm, and no one questioned why they drove such a powerful demon fox and only sent a young sect master who was only in the Qi refining period to come over.
Ye Yousheng hid in the middle of the crowd, opened the communication jade handle in his arms without a trace, and passed the projection of this scene to Qin Zhen.
Although he couldn't understand many things clearly, Senior Sister would definitely be able to get useful information from them. Senior sister is not here, he wants to see everything that happens here for senior sister.
When Ye Yousheng went to the gate of the city, a mortal woman named Zhao Yuelian also woke up.
Qin Zhen also fed her some water to drink, and waited patiently for the two of them to hug and cry.
Over the years, while avoiding the tracking of the Six Dao Alliance, she has taught the secrets of the exercises to mortals in various remote villages in Xingzhou. In the process, her patience can be said to be honed to the extreme.
But for that goal, she can force herself to do anything.
Her time was short, because the gap between the enemy's cultivation and her was too large.
Her time can also be very long, because rescuing mortals is a huge undertaking.
So, she must be patient, more patient than anyone else.
The jade handle of communication in his arms made a soft sound. Wang Xi and Zhao Yulian, who were crying and lamenting the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, immediately fell silent, lest they disturb the business of the immortals.
Qin Hao waved her hand gently, signaling that they didn't need to be nervous, and then took the initiative to get up and walk a few steps away.
It's Ye Yousheng's message.
There are three scenes in total, and a small smiling face is attached at the end.
Qin Hao's fingers paused, and finally rubbed lightly on the smiling face at the end, her eyelashes trembling slightly. She didn't rush to reply to Ye Yousheng's message, but clicked on the three pictures in order.
The first segment is the scene where Shen Yingyao draws his sword.
The communication jade handle could only transmit pictures, not sounds, but it was not difficult for Qin Hao to imagine what Shen Yingyao's character would say.
Her understanding of Shen Yingyao all comes from his own brother, Shen Hezheng. Now in her storage bag, there is still the news that Shen He is passing through the bag of spirit stones today.
And she also used the bottle of wound medicine engraved with plum blossom patterns to hand over the news she had gotten.
When I met Shen Hezheng, my father had just disappeared and there was no news. Xiang Rong, who revealed his true face, and the few sect masters who claimed to be his father's "best friends", took away countless spiritual materials and magic weapons from Tianyi Sect.
As early as when Qin Zhen lost contact with his father, he hid Ye Yousheng in a hidden secret passage in the ancestral hall to prevent him from seeing this scene.
And Shen Hezheng, who had been standing behind Shen Qifeng and was silent, quietly sought cooperation with Qin Zhen when everyone was not paying attention.
If it was Qin Zhen in a normal state, he would never trust all the people involved with these people. But at that time, she was carried away by anger and hatred, and saw the new wounds and old marks on Shen Hezheng's back, so she chose to cooperate with Shen Hezheng without thinking too much.
Although it has been such a long time, Shen Hezheng doesn't seem to have any problems, and the news he gave about the Qianyuan Sect and the Xingzhou Six Dao Alliance Branch, after Qin Zhen went to verify it, he found that it could all match.
But Qin Zhen always retained a sense of vigilance, guarding against Shen Hezheng showing his fangs like Xiang Rong and Shen Qifeng at the beginning.
Today is the first time she has seen Shen Yingyao in person, and she is sure that it is basically consistent with the information given by Shen Hezheng. But at the same time, the weirdness that the father and son of Qianyuanzong gave her became more and more serious.
Qin Zhen was very sure that Qianyuanzong still had some secrets that he didn't know.
She couldn't ask Shen Hezheng directly, so she could only start from Shen Yingyao, who seemed to be irritable and anxious.
The first scene is frozen in Shen Yingyao standing in the middle of the formation, gathering aura and swinging at the tip of the sword towards the demon fox.
Qin Hao clicked on the second scene again, it was the demon fox who was about to fight back, but suddenly roared in pain, revealing the wound on his right claw that had not yet healed.
Seeing this, Qin Hao could already guess what the last picture was, it was nothing more than Shen Yingyao driving away the injured demon fox and winning everyone's praise.
She found it a little boring.
However, although this arrangement is very lacking in novelty, there are still many people who eat this set. After today, the name of Shen Yingyao, the young sect master of the Qianyuan Sect, will spread all over Xingzhou, and people will temporarily forget that he is inferior to Shen Hezheng, until the next time he or Shen Hezheng appears in front of everyone.
Qin Zhen reflected on it and found that she still underestimated Shen Qifeng's love for her youngest son.
During today's competition, Shen Yingyao had just been lost face by Shen Hezheng, and Shen Qifeng would be able to arrange a play for him in the evening.
If the injuries on Shen Hezheng's body really came from Shen Qifeng as he said, then he must have been punished in the forbidden land of Qianyuan Sect now.
He is obviously talented, but he can only give way to his younger brother. When the younger brother was respected by everyone outside, he endured the beating of his father in the sect.
Qin Hao thought about Shen Hezheng's situation and felt that it was really normal for him to be able to find him to cooperate with himโof course, provided that all this was true.
Since it cannot be ruled out that they may play a bitter trick, finding a breakthrough from Shen Yingyao has become a very important thing at the moment.
Qin Zhen retracted her thoughts, sent a message to Ye Yousheng to wait for her in the same place, put away the communication jade handle, and walked towards Wang Xi and Zhao Yuelian.
The two had stabilized their emotions and completely sobered up, and when they saw Qin Zhen coming, they hurriedly thanked her.
Qin Zhen took their thanks and said, "I won't ask more about the antecedents, have you figured out what to do now?" โ
Wang Xi and Zhao Yuelian glanced at each other, and Wang Xi said hesitantly: "My wife and I still have to go back to the Huisheng Medicine Shop, the owner of the medicine store is a kind person, and we have signed a long-term contract, which should protect our husband and wife." โ
"Your own business, you just decide." Qin Hao didn't have any objections, "If you can stand up now, just come with me, and I'll send you back." โ
"Thank you, immortals!" Wang Xi and Zhao Yuelian hurriedly stood up and followed behind Qin Zhen.
They knew that Qin Hao's move was just to prevent those monks from coming back to trouble them.
"Stop, law enforcement investigates!"
Slightly familiar business came from behind them.
"I received a report that there are monks here who are abusing and beating mortals for no reason, please cooperate with our law enforcement team in the investigation."
Qin Hao turned around, and sure enough, Lin Peng, who had released kindness to him this morning, was holding the token of the law enforcement team and looking at them with a serious face.
Seeing that it was Qin Zhen, Lin Peng was also stunned for a moment.
He rushed over after receiving a report, and when he saw a monk with two mortals from a distance, he thought it was a monk who committed a crime, but he didn't expect it to be Qin Zhen.
He frowned, not quite willing to believe that this matter was done by Qin Hao.
Wang Xi saw that he was about to misunderstand, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain: "No, it was this immortal chief who saved us. โ
Zhao Yuelian also chimed in: "Immortal Chief is still preparing to send us back to the pharmacy, she is a good person!" โ
Lin Peng subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't want to see this child as old as his daughter be a violent and wanton person.
"You go with our law enforcement team first, tell me about the characteristics of the monk who hurt you, and then we'll send you straight out of the city. We've gone to say hello when we go back to the medicine shop, and you can come back again until you recover from your injuries. Lin Peng put away the token and added.
Wang Xi and Zhao Yuelian were stunned for a moment, and then thanked them happily.
After saying goodbye to them, Qin Hao looked at the figures of them walking away with the members of the law enforcement team, and then looked at Lin Peng: "Meet again, Senior Lin." โ
Lin Peng was a little helpless: "I really didn't expect to meet again so soon." โ
He hesitated, but still persuaded: "It is good to have kindness, but there is no room for superfluous kindness here. โ
"Thank you for the kindness of the seniors, the younger generations will remember it." Qin Zhen bent down slightly.
Lin Peng wanted to say something, but he and Qin Zhen were not familiar enough to persuade him anymore, so he just nodded slightly, saying that he was busy with business, and left.
