In the afternoon, it was time to apply.

Everyone in the Zhong Mansion inquired and inspected it in detail.

No one is missing, and no one shows signs of being searched.

The 30-storied courtyard was uninhabited, and there was no other loss except for the destruction of some houses.

Zhong Yan groaned: "I should have just sneaked into the mansion, and I happened to bump into it." ”

Yuan Ziyi: "Building the ninth layer of the foundation, if it is a person from the surrounding families of Qingyang, it should not be difficult to check." ”

Yu Qingyao: "The Ding family and the Peng family know your details, tempting?" Or just want to assassinate? ”

Zhong Yan shook his head: "No, the escape technique she used is quite strange, and her combat power is not comparable to ordinary people." ”

Killing Ge Liqun gave him a lot of gains, not only to have a clear understanding of his own combat power, but also to have a better understanding of the later monks.

Among the few people contacted, the beast master Ding Zhi was the strongest, followed by Ge Liqun, and Peng Jinghuan on the seventh layer was even stronger than Xia Hongdeng on the eighth floor.

In comparison, any of them, Zhong Yan is sure to defeat.

And the woman in black last night was only one step higher than a few people, and various means such as the big stele hand and the ancient character secret technique came out together, and it was quite difficult.

After thinking about it, Zhong Yan didn't have a clue, and the only possibility that came to mind was that the Ding family or the Peng family revealed their actual combat strength, and out of fear, they recruited killers, most likely the Five Elements Sect.

However, Zhong Yan felt that this possibility was very small.

The Ding family and the Peng family are strong in the northwest, but they are not ranked in the entire Yan country.

The three cities and horns, united together, is the best way to deal with the national war.

"The assassination can't be successful, if there is another purpose, there should be eyebrows soon, wait."

Zhong Yan said: "Qing Yao ordered to go down, let everyone be more cautious recently, Ziyi, you watch more children in the mansion." ”

The two responded.

Gu Baiyu said: "Husband, the Xia City Lord, Bai Daoyou, and Ding Daoyou have all come to inquire about the situation, do you want to see it?" ”

"Hmm."

Meet the guests.

Zhong Yan returned to the deep courtyard to find Yuan Ziyi, and was quite curious about the 'woman in the green dress' she recruited.

I always knew that the other party had a spirit puppet, but it was the first time I saw it, and I never thought that it was actually the four disciples of Qifeng who I had seen by Li Lin's side-Ji Ying.

It is revealed that it has the strength of the seven-layer aura of the foundation, close to the eighth layer, but the combat power is extraordinary.

Moreover, he is full of spirituality, and he is no different from ordinary people at first glance, and even his eyes are bright.

In addition, in the battle last night, he saw that Yuan Ziyi had pinched some handprints at the beginning, and then the 'puppet Jiying' fought on his own.

Thirty-six courtyards, next to the medicine garden.

Yuan Ziyi turned her head and saw her husband flying over, so she knew what she meant, and waved her hand to beckon the 'woman in the green skirt'.

"This is the fourth sister."

Yuan Ziyi stroked the hair of the 'woman in the green skirt', with a soft meaning in her eyes, and said: "Husband, I didn't mean to hide it, in my heart, the fourth sister has never died, and I don't want to use her as a tool." ”

Zhong Yan bowed his head, surprised in his heart, and looked at the 'puppet Ying', and the other party also looked at each other, and he would turn his eyes, vividly.

Her red lips opened lightly and said softly, "Hello." ”

Zhong Yan's eyes widened, and he was shocked.

Yuan Ziyi took the fourth sister's hand and said: "It's what I control, limited by my puppet technique, although the fourth sister is a spirit puppet, but she can't reach that spirituality, but the fourth sister's spirit is still there, as long as she continues to practice and nourish, her spirituality will be higher and higher in the future." ”

Zhong Yan was stunned: "The soul is still there?" ”

Yuan Ziyi bowed slightly, his expression was a little complicated, his eyes showed sadness, and there was a hint of regret.

Zhong Yan realized in his heart and didn't ask any more.

He is also a puppeteer, so he naturally understands what it means that the divine soul is still there - he was refined as a puppet before he was born!

No wonder spirituality is so high.

Among the many types of puppets, the puppets made from living 'monks' or 'demon beasts' are of the highest level, and some of them are even growing.

However, this method is too vicious, and the recipient of the Dharma has to endure unimaginable pain and suffering, which is extremely difficult for the sake of heaven and harmony, and it is rarely refined, unless the person being refined is willing.

Although Yuan Ziyi's puppet technique has achieved something, it is obviously far from reaching that level, and only the 'fourth sister' agrees.

Zhong Yan left 'Lu Ge' and 'Lu Ruiqi' just to refine the 'corpse puppet' in the future.

At the moment of the monk's death, he immediately casts a spell, supplemented by high-grade materials, which can retain part of the combat power of the 'material' before his death, including supernatural spells.

And the 'Ji Ying' in front of him may have left most of the combat power in his life.

Yuan Ziyi was silent for a while, and took the initiative to say: "That time, the fourth sister went to the Yunmeng Swamp to find an elixir, and the master felt something, and deduced it with forbidden techniques, and learned that there was a life and death crisis, so she personally searched for it...... When I came back, the fourth sister was already hanging by a thread, and there was no medicine to do, so the master asked me to ......"

Thinking of the pain that the fourth sister had to endure before she died, Yuan Ziyi's eyes flashed.

Zhong Yan grabbed her hand and shook it, comforting: "As you said, the fourth sister has never died, but she is alive in a different form from us, and she can still see her every day." ”

Pei Nanjin and the other Qifeng disciples didn't know the identity of Yuan Ziyi's puppet master, so they obviously didn't know that Ji Ying had become a puppet and didn't see the last corpse.

When Yuan Ziyi's mood calmed down, Zhong Yan asked, "Nan Jin, haven't they asked?" ”

Yuan Ziyi: "I asked, everyone only met once when Shizun brought back the fourth sister, and then Shizun took the fourth sister to retreat and heal, and then recruited me alone...... In the end, Shizun pretended to bury the fourth sister in the coffin, and said that he would leave quietly, and the sisters did not doubt him. ”

Zhong Yan nodded: "From then on, I will try to let the fourth sister come out as little as possible." ”

Li Lin is not there, it is difficult to explain, if Pei Nanjin and others see the 'puppet fourth sister', they will inevitably think about it and find it difficult to accept it in their hearts.

said that it was a spirit puppet, and the spirit was still there, but in fact, it was a walking corpse, and all behaviors, feelings, and thoughts were all in Yuan Ziyi's thoughts, and he was no longer the original 'Ji Ying' at all.

And the premise is that Ji Ying is alive and soul refining and will not enter reincarnation!

To be honest, if Yuan Ziyi, Yu Qingyao and others were on the line of life and death in the future, and they could refine puppets if they met the conditions, he would not be willing to do so.

Zhong Yan sighed in his heart, with Yuan Ziyi's heart, he would never do this, and it could only be instructed by Li Lin.

……

……

Eastern Regions.

Southwest of Yanzhou, Xingyue Sect.

On the magnificent jade square, tens of thousands of disciples dressed in various sect costumes.

Today is the opening ceremony of the triennial sect competition, and the disciples have drawn lots and the voices of discussion have faded like a tide.

"Senior Sister Ye!"

With a shout, four male disciples chased after him.

Ye Xu and Senior Sister stopped and turned to say hello.

At this moment, Ye Su was dressed in a tunic purple sect costume, although he was not tall, his body was light and exquisite, and he looked heroic.

Looking at the face again, the youth has faded, and there is no peerless beauty, but the eyebrows are picturesque, innocent and beautiful, and the smile reveals two delicate dimples, which makes people uncontrollably rise up at the sight of me, and want to protect.

Since her entry, she has been very popular with many male disciples.

"What kind of lottery did my sister draw?"

Ye Xu has a shy personality, pure and lovely, holding a sign to sign, and said with a smile: "The first scene tomorrow morning is at the No. 9 Dharma Platform." ”

"Senior sister has a solid foundation and exquisite Taoism, and this big competition will definitely shine!"

“……”

A group of men and women walked away laughing.

In front of a piece of Qionglou Yuyu.

The senior sister pretended to be dissatisfied and scolded: "What are you doing one by one, do you want to follow us into the female disciple's dormitory?" Senior Sister Su has to go back and prepare! ”

At this time, a long rainbow flew in.

The deacon's disciple landed on the ground and arched his hand: "Senior brothers and sisters, can you know Senior Sister Ye Xu?" ”

Ye Su was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and saluted: "This senior brother, I am Ye Su, I don't know what to do with me?" ”

The deacon's disciple turned over his hand and took out a letter and handed it over: "Senior sister has a letter, please check it." ”

Ye Xu blinked, hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, saw the seal and signature on the envelope, and his face showed surprise: "Thank you, senior brother!" ”

Then he said goodbye to the four curious male disciples, shouted, 'Senior sister, I'll go back first', and ran away briskly.

Rush all the way back to the cave.

Ye Xu took the letter and turned it over to look at it, regarded it as a treasure, and carefully erased the mark and opened it for a long time.

The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world.

Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge.

If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

"If the love between the two is long, how can it be ...... in the morning and twilight"

Ye Xu whispered, chanted repeatedly, lay on his side on the couch, and held the letter paper tightly in his arms.

I couldn't sleep all night, and I missed it like a tide.
