The old man stood in front of the well and kept talking, without any emotion in his voice.

But between the words, there was a lot of temptation, and his face was full of eagerness, like an elder who was seducing and seducing, leading people to goodness.

"Make a decision, no one will know, it's not your fault, it's human nature, you just made the right choice, no one blames you, what you expect the most, it's just in front of you, you just need a decision."

He continued to speak, and the eyes of the hole became a little eager, and his voice began to be soft, different from before.

Yuan Ming listened to this, and his eyes were always on the baby in the well.

Look at the bucket that is constantly being infiltrated by cold water.

There was also a weakened cry.

But in his mind, all of them were the dozens of treasures on the ground, which he could grasp as long as he stretched out his hand.

"Yes, people are dying every day, even if I save them, what can I change? And if I become stronger, then I can save more people in the future, although I don't save now, but it is also for the sake of saving more in the future. ”

"As long as I have those things, my strength can be greatly improved, I don't have to worry about this aspect for the time being, I can save more time for cultivation, I can reach the Dan realm, I will have more powerful power, if I change to someone else, I will choose this way, right?"

"Yes, everybody knows what to do and how to choose."

Yuan Ming's mind was filled with an idea, which was completely different from before.

I feel that the old man next to me is right, this is human nature, and every day mortals will die...

The Confucian righteousness cultivated in the body also began to become thinner.

At this moment, he was persuaded by those words, and his wavering heart gradually stabilized, but he still didn't speak, just stood in place.

It is cost-effective to exchange the life of a baby for the things he dreams of, and for the possibility of cultivating to the Dan Realm in the future, Yuan Ming thinks that any monk knows how to do it.

But why are you still hesitating?

"Have you made a decision?"

The old man spoke again, and there was still no change between his words: "Pick up the things, just turn your head and leave, don't hesitate anymore, think about yourself, you have cultivated for so many years, and you finally reached the foundation building realm, but today, those sect disciples still don't care about your kind of casual cultivation, what is the fundamental reason, is because you are not strong enough, as long as you are strong, then these things will not happen to you in the future." ”

"And you are only one decision, one thought, one step away from these."

"Only... Is it okay to take it? ”

Finally, Yuan Ming spoke, his tone trembling a little.

He really didn't want to watch the mortal baby in front of him die like this, but if he could avoid it...

In this case, it should have nothing to do with you at all, right? After all, he didn't do anything, he just walked away.

"Not bad."

The old man nodded, beckoned, and all the magic weapons on the ground, the flying sword pills, were suspended in the air, and they were all packed into a storage bag, and then he put them in front of Yuan Ming, and his voice was approachable: "Take it, just leave, just treat it as if you haven't come." ”

When Yuan Ming heard this, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and he was silent, but finally took the storage bag.

Then, with his head down, he walked away from the well.

The surrounding black fog suddenly rushed over.

Yuan Ming couldn't see the old man, nor could he see the well, and only the cry of a baby disappeared in his ears after a while.

"Dead?" Yuan Ming's heart trembled, and when he picked up the storage bag, he swept the Yuan Shen, everything was in it, and the flying sword, magic weapon, and pill he wanted were all there, lying quietly in it, and he could take it out with a slight movement of his mind.

Seeing this, for some reason he breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully put it away, but did not continue to walk, but stood in place.

What Yuan Ming didn't know was that at this moment, an incomparably rich black aura emerged from his body.

It was a shadow, exactly the same as its body, and it drifted away from its body.

On the other side, the old man stood by the well, his eyes still empty.

In the well, the baby was dead, and sank to the bottom of the well, never to live again, and a black breath rose from it, and when he saw it, he immediately opened his mouth and sucked it.

At the same time, in the place where Yuan Ming left, there was also a float, and two black breaths, one large and one small, were swallowed into his abdomen.

Call~

The next moment, the aura around the old man's body became even stronger than before.

"It is worthy of being a scholar who cultivates Confucian righteousness, this strength is much stronger than those sect disciples, but it's a pity that my current strength is less than thirty percent, and I still need to be careful when dealing with one, but after this time, I should be able to change to a stronger target."

The old man felt the power, and an extremely comfortable expression appeared on his face, as if he was full and satisfied.

"Congratulations, my lord, my strength is back to another point."

At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the black fog.

The middle-aged man was tall and dressed in a white robe, and his strength was perfect, but he faintly revealed an aura that was completely different from that of ordinary monks.

And after he appeared, he bowed slightly to the old man, with respect in his mouth: "My lord, what about the other people?" ”

"Today's movement will definitely attract their attention, and then continue to stay here."

The old man pondered for a moment, and then spoke again: "Among this group of people, there is a person who has cultivated Confucianism and Taoism to reach the realm of knowledge and action, I can feel that the power contained in his body is very great, if I can arouse the deepest greed in his heart, then my strength can be restored to fifty percent." ”

"Directly attack the person who knows the realm?"

The middle-aged man frowned, and couldn't help but say: "There are more or less Confucian righteousness in this line, and there is also a Zhisheng Realm, my lord, we can come step by step, with your means, they can't escape." ”

As for the source of the old man's strength, middle-aged people know very well that if they arouse people's evil thoughts, they can make themselves strong, and they don't need to practice at all.

And the more people who cultivate to a higher level, the more power they will gain, but if they are changed to a Confucian scholar, the effect will be even better, and a Confucian scholar who has entered the realm can supplement even more power than a Yudan realm.

The reason is very simple, Confucianism cultivates the way of a gentleman, cultivates the heart, and such people have pure thoughts.

If such a Confucian scholar can be allowed to raise evil thoughts, the opposite will be the more power.

But it's also dangerous.

Because the methods of Confucian scholars have great restraint on the elderly, it is not easy to lure them at all.

Therefore, middle-aged people think that they can come step by step, and they don't need to deal directly with the person who knows the realm.

"What you said, the old man naturally understands."

The old man spoke, and his tone began to change: "But that Confucian scholar, unlike what the old man met before, the Confucian righteousness in his body is very special, although he is only in the realm of knowledge and action, but if he really succeeds, I am afraid that he is comparable to a scholar in the realm of a gentleman." ”

"And we don't have much time, we can't delay any longer, the plan will start soon, and the old man must recover his strength in a short time, so the next thing will be simpler, how are you prepared?"

He has his own considerations, and knows that it may not be good to do this, but it's nothing, it's just a scholar who knows the Xing realm, and it's not that he hasn't met it, and even Zhengru dared to start in his heyday, just knowing how to do it, besides, the old man has observed for a long time, and it is a double cultivation of Taoism and Confucianism, which means that there are more weaknesses, and if it is just a simple reader, it may be a little troublesome.

can still practice the immortal path, then there must be a stronger obsession with strength, cultivation, and so on.

The old man was very confident in this, so he asked directly about the progress of the plan.

"Lord Hui, all the powerhouses of the Holy Sect are already in place, and I believe it won't take too long."

The middle-aged man bowed back, with a smile in his words: "Although the Taihao Sword Sect has reacted, it has no impact on our plans, everything is under control. ”

"Okay."

The old man nodded when he heard this, and there was excitement in his eyes: "After laying out for so long, I finally have a harvest, remember, there must be no mistakes, this plan is about the revival of the demon lord, it is of great significance, as long as the three demon lords are completely recovered, then there is no force in the world today that can stop us, and at that time, your holy sect will make great contributions." ”

"Yes, my lord."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man was overjoyed.

What he cares about is not merit, what matters is that he can revive the Demon Lord.

As long as the Demon Lord recovers, it proves that everything the Heavenly Saint Sect has done is correct.

At this point, the middle-aged man's smile became more and more intense, but he quickly thought of another thing, and couldn't help but speak: "It's a pity that the last resort of the Confucian sage was too unexpected, preventing the recovery of the strongest demon lord and making our years of hard work in vain, otherwise we wouldn't have to be so troublesome, and we would have to make a plan for the next step." ”

"In the end, it is a Confucian sage, and it cannot be crossed by common sense, but rest assured, we still have a chance."

Hearing this, the old man's expression also changed, he shook his head, and did not say much on this topic, but spoke: "Okay, I don't need your help here for the time being, you can also go and implement the last step of the plan." ”

After speaking, the old man waved his hand, and an inexplicable force emerged from his body.

Behind him, the black mist vibrates, constantly gathering, combined, and it can be faintly seen that it seems to have turned into three altars, and the old man stood under the altar and spoke at the same time: "In the name of the earth demon, I ask the demon lord to send down grace and bestow it on our most devout believers." ”

The old man's voice was very small, and it seemed to come from a very ancient place, slowly falling into the ears of the middle-aged man.

And the next moment, the middle-aged man only felt an inexplicable power emerge from his body, and his original cultivation of building a perfect foundation also rose at this moment, just a breath, his strength reached the consummation of the Dan realm, and directly improved to a great realm.

"Thank you, sir."

Seeing this, the latter immediately bowed down and expressed his gratitude.

"Go ahead, refine the grace of the demon lord, and you can also hope for Jindan." The old man spoke, not paying attention to any of this.

The middle-aged man lowered his head and slowly retreated, and his figure soon disappeared.

The old man turned his head, his gaze was in a certain direction, it seemed to penetrate the black mist, and landed on a certain person, and then, a smile appeared on his face, and he muttered to himself: "There is no need to worry, wait for me to refine this power, and tomorrow will be you." ”

As the words fell, his figure disappeared into the darkness, and his aura disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared.

Immediately afterward, the black fog that shrouded the area gradually thinned out and began to dissipate.

Over time, until it disappears.

Meanwhile.

Song Zhishu on the other side was still trying to find a way to crack the black fog in front of him, and even Haoran Righteousness was used, but the effect was not great.

"What the hell is this demon? Isn't it useless to be upright? Song Zhishu stopped, thinking that even if he encountered a demon, with his own means, even if he was defeated, he would have a way to deal with it.

But how long has it been now? There's still nothing I can do with that black mist.

He was a little suspicious, was the demon that existed in Luojiazhuang really just a yin demon?

Whew~

And when Song Zhishu fell into deep thought, a breeze appeared around him again, and all the black fog was also blown away at this time.

He couldn't help but raise his head and found that everything that had just been covered slowly came into view at this moment, and not long after, when the black fog dissipated, Song Zhishu found that he was less than three meters away from the bonfire, and there were familiar figures next to him.

It was Lin Cheng and Wang Chong and the others, everyone had confusion in their eyes, looking at each other, they found that the black fog that they couldn't escape, the people they couldn't find, were less than ten meters away from where they were.

"What just happened? Are you all alright? ”

"I don't know, what is the black fog?"

"It's... This... Are we caught up in the formation? ”

Everyone spoke, but they didn't dare to move, for fear of repeating the situation before.

Li Xiansong suspected that this was a formation, and at the same time he was still apprehensive about what had just happened.

Obviously, everyone was around him, but no matter what he did, there was no response, and even the monks were afraid.

And as a formation mage, the first thing that naturally comes to mind is the formation.

Only the formation can reverse the leylines, cover the primordial spirit, and make people trapped in a certain area and unable to get out, so Li Xiansong thinks that it is a formation, but if you think about it carefully, there is a feeling that it is indescribable.

"Mr. Song?"

Chen Jingyun, who was not far away, also spoke: "What the hell is going on, will the black fog still appear?" ”

He frowned, but he didn't dare to move around when he stood still, because everyone was lost in the black fog because they took a step, not only could they not find the direction, but they couldn't even feel the passage of time.

Chen Jingyun knew that it was the hand of the demon, but it was useless to arouse the righteousness of Confucianism.

So at this moment, I had to turn to Song Zhishu to see if the other party had any discoveries.

And Song Zhishu didn't answer immediately, from everyone's expressions, he could see that everyone was suffering the same as himself, shrouded in the black fog, and lost most of their perception ability, but what happened during this period?

However, Song Zhishu knows that now is not the time to think about this, the key is to see whether the crisis is resolved.

After thinking for a moment, he activated his righteous qi, and at the same time mobilized the mana in his body, and began to move his body.

Everyone held their breath and became vigilant.

Soon, as Song Zhishu moved, the black mist did not appear again, everything was extremely normal, and he could also feel that Haoran righteousness did not issue any more warnings, dormant and in the body, it seemed that he was too careful.

"It should be fine, but don't take it lightly, you guys walk around one by one."

Song Zhishu opened his mouth and nodded slightly at Chen Jingyun.

The latter understood what it meant, and immediately walked around, without change.

Immediately, Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and others did the same, and everything was still the same, and the surroundings were still silent and unchanged.

"Are you alright?"

Chen Jingyun's expression was still vigilant, and then motioned for everyone to approach.

Everyone checked each other, and no one was missing, and no one was hurt.

At the same time, everyone began to recount what happened after the black fog hit, roughly the same as Song Zhishu, after seeing the black fog, everyone was trying to find a way to break it, but in the end it still had no effect, until finally the black fog disappeared by itself.

And everyone counted the time again, and found that from the time the black fog came out to the time it subsided, two hours had passed.

It's almost dawn today.

"What the hell just happened?"

After everyone sat down, Lin Cheng couldn't help it, after many years of cultivation, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Although the others didn't feel the danger anymore, they all looked around quite vigilantly, afraid that the black fog would appear again.

"It's definitely a demon's means, but that black mist doesn't look like a formation." Li Xiansong spoke, his eyes full of doubt.

"Since it is a demon, it naturally cannot be dealt with by common sense."

Wang Chong said, the black fog he felt was indeed weird, but a few meters away, it could actually make people lose contact.

Gu Siqing, Shen Xing, Lou Zhong and Sha Wenxuan also spoke, and they all had palpitations, knowing that it was the hand of the demon, but now they didn't even see the enemy, such a situation, they didn't dare to imagine it before.

"Mr. Chen, you know more about demons, tell me what you think." Song Zhishu understood that from the mouths of several people, he must not have gotten any information, so when he asked more experienced people, he suspected that it was not an ordinary demon who made the shot, otherwise how could he have done it to such an extent? Until now, no one knows exactly what happened.

"I don't know why, the demons are weird, even the Yin demons are the same, each one is different."

Chen Jingyun thought for a moment and continued to speak: "And the ability of ordinary yin demons is indeed impossible for all of us not to discover in the slightest, and my question is, since that demon made a move, why didn't anything happen in the end?" ”

Everyone was shrouded in a black mist, and if they did it, they would definitely be surprised, but the problem was that everyone was not injured, just like the demon who only wanted to trap the people present, and did not intend to hurt people, which was very strange, and another point was that they still hadn't figured out how the people in Luojiazhuang disappeared, it was all a mystery.

"Maybe the demon has other intentions."

Song Zhishu spoke up, looked at the sun that was about to rise in the distance, and continued: "My suggestion is that since we have discovered the demon, then we will stay in Luojiazhuang for another day to see if we will encounter the same situation tonight." ”

It has been determined that there is a demon here, so the next thing to do is how to find it out.

As for whether there are demons in other locations, this is no longer in the scope of consideration.

Because Luojiazhuang's has not been solved, even if there are other places, you can't go.

The most important thing is.

The most important purpose of everyone's trip is to find out the mysterious disappearance of the villagers of several villages.

"I agree with Mr. Song." Chen Jingyun opened his mouth and agreed with what Song Zhishu said, although the previous encounter was indeed very strange, but it was impossible to return empty-handed, what if there was a new discovery tonight?

"This..."

Gu Siqing and Shen Xing were silent.

Although they were not injured and did not encounter any danger, the feeling of powerlessness shrouded in the black fog still made several people a little uncomfortable, if it was a demon beast, at least they knew what they were facing, but now they didn't even know who was making a move.

In this case, what if the demon strikes? Is there a way to resist it?

Song Zhishu looked at the hesitant expressions of several people, and didn't say anything.

It's human nature to be afraid of the unknown, and there's nothing to blame for, because even if you're worried that something won't happen in the next day.

"A few Taoist friends, I have thought of a way, we tie our bodies with ropes in advance, so that even if the black fog strikes again tonight, we can also find each other along the rope, as long as we can get together, we can find a way, break through it, find the demon who made the shot, how about it?"

Chen Jingyun said that the method of dealing with the black fog was very old, but it was very useful.

And his meaning is very simple, that is, after the black fog appears, everyone gathers and then thinks of a way.

Like the previous situation, it came too suddenly, and it was the first time to face it, but now that I have some experience, I won't be passive in dealing with it.

"I agree with Mr. Chen."

Song Zhishu nodded, thinking that the method was good, but this alone was not enough, so he took out the treasure jade that had been engraved before from the storage bag, and then said: "This is the treasure jade I prepared, there is pure yang power in it, if the demon appears, it should have some effect." ”

He also used this treasure jade last night, and it did dispel some black mist, but it didn't take long.

Song Zhishu was sure that if that demon appeared, it would definitely be useful.

took it out in order to increase the confidence of a few people.

Otherwise, if you keep being afraid like this, even if you reluctantly stay, you won't gain anything tonight.

"This, Song Daoyou is not very good." Lin Cheng opened his mouth, and he could see at a glance that it was a medium-grade spirit grade treasure jade, the price was at least more than two thousand spirit stones, and there were nine people present, that is, close to ten thousand spirit stones, so he took it like this, he was really embarrassed.

The three of them are more familiar with Song Zhishu, and this task is also automatic, so of course they will not leave.

Therefore, they all think that if they can not accept that Baoyu, they still don't accept it.

Gu Siqing, Shen Xing and the others also nodded, they were willing to stay, but they were just a little worried.

Now that Song Zhishu took out the treasure jade, several people were a little embarrassed, and they also felt that they couldn't accept it directly.

The reason is very simple, now it is the task of carrying out Wanshi Pavilion, and they were also moved by the generous remuneration before, but in fact, with the abilities of Chen Jingyun and Song Zhishu, it is not difficult to find stronger people.

But the two still chose themselves, if they were changed at another time, they would not have this opportunity at all.

Now that you have a premonition of a crisis, do you retreat? Once that happens, who wants to form a team with a few people in the future?

Therefore, when Chen Jingyun spoke, the four of them had actually made a decision, and now Song Zhishu took out the treasure jade again, they knew the reason, and they also knew that this thing could better deal with the crisis, but it was not easy to accept it directly.

After all, this kind of thing is actually valuable to a few people.

Usually they don't even want to buy magic weapons.

What's more, Baoyu?

Song Zhishu naturally knew what everyone thought, he smiled slightly, and his words were gentle: "Baoyu is only temporarily lent to you, if you use it tonight, you can give it to me at the price of raw materials at that time." ”

In the face of unknown demons, he is not sure whether he can defeat them, and one more person means more certainty.

This is not a free gift, but also for yourself to be able to tide over the crisis and complete the task.

"That's... Thank you, Mr. Song. ”

Several people looked at each other, felt that it was acceptable, and immediately put away the treasure jade.

Although Chen Jingyun was a Confucian scholar, he finally thought that it would be good to have this thing, so he nodded.

Seeing that everyone accepted it, just the last Yuan Ming, Song Zhishu turned his head and said: "Yuan Daoyou, do you still have any concerns?" ”

"Ahh No, just listen to Mr. Song. ”

Yuan Ming came to his senses, and after giving up his hand, he took the treasure jade, and then lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Song Zhishu felt a little strange, after the black fog subsided, he felt that the other party was a little wrong, his mind was not on his body at all, and he didn't talk much, but the other party didn't speak, and he didn't ask much.

But intuition told Song Zhishu that Yuan Ming must have something on his mind, and he may have encountered a different situation from everyone else.

So tonight, you have to pay attention.

"Okay, then the plan is set, and we will stay in the Zhuangzi for another night." Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Chen Jingyun immediately spoke, deciding what he was going to do tonight.

At the same time, he found a rope and poured mana into it to make it even tougher.

He had a hunch that if he could solve the unknown demon.

Then this time the task can be completed.

After all, the one who can use such a means is definitely the culprit behind the disappearance of the villagers in several villages overnight.

Immediately, the group of ten people stopped talking, and each meditated and rested to recover his mana.

I don't know what will happen tonight, maybe I won't find anything like before, maybe I'm going to have to go through a tough battle, but in short, everyone has to make sure that they are in perfect shape and concentrate all their attention.

Time passed little by little, and for monks who were in retreat all year round, a month or even a year passed in the blink of an eye.

But today's day seems longer than ever.

Everyone is doing their own thing according to the plan.

The busiest among them was Li Xiansong, who proposed to arrange a formation around everyone.

Although they knew that it didn't make much sense, everyone thought that something was better than nothing, and finally chose to agree.

And in the meantime.

In addition to meditating, Song Zhishu was paying attention to Yuan Ming's state, although the other party was also sitting and practicing after he was busy, he opened his eyes from time to time, absent-mindedly, and one of them took out a storage bag, as if he was checking something.

It's really wrong...

In this regard, Song Zhishu already has a rough judgment.

Yuan Ming definitely has a secret, and it happened last night, maybe it has something to do with demons, but it is not clear what it is.

He also sensed it with Haoran righteousness, and the other party did not have any strange aura, which was normal.

Of course, it is also possible that this is just one of the demonic methods.

Shaking his head, Song Zhishu didn't think much about it.

Wait quietly for time to pass.

Soon, night fell, Luojiazhuang was still the original courtyard, but the moonlight on the sky dome had been completely obscured, and gusts of cool breeze kept coming, and it was destined that this night would not be peaceful.

"The black fog hit yesterday was probably when it was ugly, and it was still half an hour away from now, so pay attention."

Chen Jingyun tied the rope around everyone's waist, and at the same time attached Confucian righteousness to it, the demons they are facing now, and against the demons, the best way to use it is the power of Confucianism.

Song Zhishu naturally would not be idle, sacrificing the saint's sword fetus, and blessing all the Haoran righteousness in his body.

In order to be able to foresee the arrival of the crisis at the first time.

Thereafter.

Everyone didn't speak, they kept looking around, there was also mana swimming around them, and at the same time, they also held the treasure jade given by Song Zhishu in their hands, they had already concentrated all their attention, as if they were facing a great enemy.

But Luojiazhuang was still quiet, only the beating of the campfire and the sound of the wind blowing.

Soon, the ugly time came, and nothing changed.

"The demon shouldn't be coming tonight, right?" Lin Cheng saw that the time had passed, and he couldn't help but speak.

Call~

But as soon as he finished speaking, it was the same wind as last night.

Zheng Zheng Zheng~

The saint's sword fetus also continued to tremble at this moment, making a violent sword roar.

"Here we are."

Song Zhishu immediately had a sense, opened his mouth directly, and the strong mana in his body also vibrate, and at the same time, the treasure jade in his hand also exuded wisps of pure yang qi at this moment, ready to shoot at any time.

Chen Jingyun also sacrificed the flying sword, and the Confucian righteousness poured into it, facing the direction where the wind was blowing.

Everyone is ready and will strike out as soon as something is wrong.

"Black fog, it's black fog."

Wang Chong opened his mouth and looked at the black mist that suddenly appeared in front of him.

This time they were prepared, so they all saw that the black mist was coming from the east, obscuring everything in front of them.

"All stand together." Song Zhishu spoke up and asked everyone to gather, because he found that Haoran's righteous movement was stronger than before, and it was obvious that the demon hidden in the dark was being solved, but it was the moment he spoke, the black mist shrouded everyone.

Puff~

The next moment, the rope that bound everyone together broke.

Song Zhishu felt that the Yuan Shen was blocked, and the scene in front of him began to change.

Chen Jingyun, Lin Cheng, and Wang Chong all disappeared, and everything disappeared, leaving only the black fog in front of them.

"Still doesn't work?" Seeing this, Song Zhishu's face changed slightly, and he immediately looked for Chen Jingyun in the direction of his memory, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, because he found that what he was stepping on was not the road of Luojiazhuang, but the grass.

The black fog doesn't seem to be as thick as it was at the beginning, it's a little thin, and the surrounding scenes of tens of meters are all in sight.

The grass underfoot, next to the shrubs, and in the distance are towering trees.

And Song Zhishu is standing on a mountain road at the moment.

"The art of shifting?"

Seeing this, he frowned, yesterday when he encountered the black fog, he was in Luojiazhuang, but today he changed places, obviously someone used the technique of shifting and sent himself to this mountain road, obviously far away from Luojiazhuang.

And Song Zhishu deed, hundreds of meters behind Luojiazhuang, there is also a leafy hill.

But I'm not sure if it's the same one.

"Did Yuan Ming also encounter this situation last night?"

Song Zhishu said to himself, he had observed everyone during the day, only Yuan Ming was wrong, obviously completely different from his own experience, but he was not sure what happened, he could only guess that it might be the same as now.

and Chen Jingyun and others, whether they were also moved out of Luojiazhuang.

He was not clear about this.

As for leaving, Song Zhishu didn't think about it, he tried many times last night, and now although the place is different, it should be about the same, and he will definitely not be able to go out, even if he leaves, he will return to the same place in the end.

What's next? Can you just wait?

Be calm.

Song Zhishu told himself that now is not the time to think about that, the most important thing is to understand the current situation.

Immediately, he raised his head and looked around, the black fog still existed, but it was not that he couldn't see his fingers, he could see the scene dozens of meters away, and not far away, it was also a mountain road, because the terrain was low, so Song Zhishu could see the whole picture clearly, but he couldn't see it farther away, and the same was true of the Yuan Shen sweep, which was obviously deliberately blocked by the black fog.

"Since the demon who shot it made me see farther, there must be some intentions, but what is it going to do?"

"If this is the mountain behind Luojiazhuang, is there anything different here?"

Song Zhishu constantly analyzes the current situation.

Because he has already determined in his heart that since the demon sent him out of Luojiazhuang, there is a great probability that it will appear, but what is the purpose?

And just as he was thinking, the corner of his eye swept over another mountain road below, and on that mountain road, three figures suddenly appeared, walking towards the mountain.

"Anyone?"

Song Zhishu was stunned, but did not choose to approach, but stood in place and released the Yuan Shen, wanting to determine whether those people were real.

As he continued to scan the spirit, he found that these three people really existed, and they were not deliberately created illusions.

"Mortal? How could mortals appear? ”

Song Zhishu was completely puzzled, and could clearly see that these people were wearing ordinary mortal linen clothes, with firewood knives around their waists, and their expressions were relaxed, talking and laughing, without any special atmosphere, they were mortals, and from the perspective of their dress, they seemed to be woodcutters nearby.

But now it's obviously late at night, how can anyone go up the mountain, and where are these people from?

In the nearest place, isn't there no one in Luojiazhuang? Also, can't these people see the weird black fog around them?

One question after another appeared in Song Zhishu's mind, making him more and more confused in his heart, and it was difficult to understand the current situation.

"Roar~"

Suddenly, a beast's roar interrupted Song Zhishu's thoughts.

He immediately raised his head, and immediately saw a fierce tiger appear on the mountain road below, the tiger was stout, and looked extremely fierce, less than twenty meters away from the three woodcutters.

And the fierce scarlet eyes of the tiger were staring at the three people not far in front of him, as if they would pounce at any time.

But the three woodcutters, as if they had seen nothing, continued to walk on their own.

In this case, it will not be long before the three of them will fall into the mouth of the tiger.

"Save people."

Seeing this, Song Zhishu made a decision in just a moment.

After all, he had carefully observed, those three woodcutters were ordinary mortals, if they met the tiger, they would definitely die, although he didn't know why they appeared, but now is not the time to hesitate, since they have seen it, they naturally can't leave it behind.

"Don't worry, little friend."

But the next moment, an old voice appeared.

Song Zhishu turned his head and found that there was an old man next to the tree opposite him, I don't know when he appeared, the other party's whole body was shrouded in black robes, and his eyes were a little chilling.

Seeing this, Song Zhishu was not ready to pay attention to it, but he felt that the righteousness in his body was constantly legitimate, indicating a crisis.

"Demons?"

He looked at the old man in front of him and gently spat out two words.

Judging from the righteous Sanskrit sound, the other party is definitely a demon.

"It doesn't matter if the old man is a demon or not."

The old man didn't seem surprised that Song Zhishu directly saw his identity, but just said to himself: "The important thing is, does Xiaoyou really want to save those mortals?" ”

"Their lives have been decided, and they will be buried in the tiger's mouth in this life, even if Xiaoyou is saved, but tomorrow will still be the same result."

The old man's voice was flat, but there was a tone that made it impossible to doubt.

It's like what I just said will come true.

He looked at Song Zhishu and smiled.

For the sake of the other party, the old man can be said to have made sufficient preparations, so he did not hesitate to move Song Zhishu out alone.

It is to create the most favorable environment for yourself.

Confucian scholars.

If you want to arouse the greed in your heart, you can't naturally be as simple as before.

You have to use special means.

"If I save them once, then they will live one more day, and they are destined to die, or they will die in front of me, it is two different things."

Song Zhishu was unmoved, and while looking at the old man, the sage sword fetus in his hand shook slightly.

Of course, he didn't want to fight the other party, but prepared to rescue the three woodcutters.

Although the people in front of you are dangerous, the situation on the mountain road below is more urgent.

That's the lives of three people.

Although I don't know what the purpose of the demon in front of me is, no matter what, the three people in front of me must be saved.

"Actually, if you don't save these mortals, it will be more beneficial to Xiaoyou."

The old man spoke again, and at the same time took out a treasure in his hand, and then spoke: "This is a complete set of superb ancient artifacts, as well as more precious things, which are what Xiaoyou needs most, of course, the old man has no other meaning, just wants Xiaoyou to obey the destiny of heaven, they are destined to die, if Xiaoyou does not see it, then these things will all belong to you, Xiaoyou." ”

"Of course, no third person will know about today's events, not to mention that these three people are just mortals, and if they die, they will die, and they won't affect anything."

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on his face: "But Xiaoyou, you are different, you are a monk, a Confucian scholar, and you have unlimited potential in the future, if you have these things to help, you will have higher achievements in the future." ”

The old man kept opening his mouth and kept tempting Song Zhishu to make a choice.

Especially in the process of speaking, the old man exuded wisps of inexplicable aura around him, making his words more convincing.

And in his hands, treasures also appeared one after another, including pills, flying swords, talismans, and so on.

All kinds of light are surging and dazzling, but everything related to spiritual practice is everything.

These treasures add up to more than twenty pieces, and each of them is superb, which will be tempted by any monk when he sees it.

What's more, there's a small tower in it.

The small tower has seven floors, and the aura emitted is very thick, comparing it to all other treasures.

Wisps of light continue to rise and fall on the small tower, dazzling.

After Song Zhishu saw it, he couldn't help but move slightly.

Because that's the Tao instrument.

It is a Taoist weapon in the real sense, as the name suggests, it is the magic weapon of the Tao, this kind of thing can no longer be measured by spirit stones, because the Taoist weapon, even in the immortal sect such as Taihao Sword Sect, is only owned by true disciples, and it is the kind of hole card, which will not be taken out easily, and its preciousness can be imagined.

The reason why Song Zhishu is so sure is because he has seen Taoist weapons.

Li Qingzhou's Zhou Tian Xingchen bracelet.

There is also the abyss in the hands of Mu Changge's maid, which all belong to the Dao weapon.

The power of these two Dao weapons, Song Zhishu has seen them, they are very strong, extremely strong, and they are treasures in the true sense, so Song Zhishu understands the meaning of Dao weapons, with it, even if he can't exert all his power, it will undoubtedly greatly improve his strength.

And such a treasure is placed in front of you, within reach!

Some people died, but not completely......
