Li Xiao was going to brush another ghost snake and then go back to retreat.

He rented a cave mansion in the immortal cultivation world for three months, pretending to retreat and break through the foundation.

At this time, it has only been four or five days, so there is no hurry.

He was really not in a hurry, but he was in a hurry.

The first is Xin Qin, who was accepted by him as a concubine, and her sister Xin Rong.

Xin Qin was targeted by an old man sent by King Wu's family, wanting to find out Li Xiao's information.

Fortunately, Xin Rong came back in time and rescued her.

But the two didn't dare to live in the outer city, so they gritted their teeth and continued to rent the smallest cave house in the inner city.

The inner city of Thousand Hills is very safe, but if you don't have a fixed residence at night, you will be driven out of the city by the city patrol team.

So even if it's expensive, the two of them also rented a cave house,

As for the inns in the inner city, they are even more expensive.

Because there are all kinds of eating, drinking, and merrymaking, it is not at all something that low-level monks like them can afford.

After the two hid in the inner city, the Wang family really didn't trouble them again.

One is that the inner city is really difficult to do,

And then they got the news they wanted.

In the royal manor,

Wang Chuanrong, the head of the family, listened to the report of his subordinates, "You said that Liu Ming rented a cave mansion and is breaking through the foundation?" ”

The old man who attacked Xin Qin said,

"Yes, the head of the family, I have already found out clearly, originally the Qianshan City Cave Mansion Rental Office would not disclose the tenant's information, but it just so happened that a guy who managed the Cave Mansion owed me some favors, and I gave him some benefits, and then he told me the news that Liu Ming rented a second-order Shangpin Cave Mansion and broke through the foundation building......"

No matter where it is, as long as there is enough interest, there is no news that cannot be found.

Wang Chuanrong said in a deep voice, "Can you be sure that it is Liu Ming, the remnant of the young sect master who ran out of the Liu family of the Mixed Yuan Gate?" ”

The old man thought for a while, "I haven't seen him with my own eyes, but someone in the clan saw Liu Ming wandering around the city that day, although several years have passed, but that clan participated in the attack on Chaoyuan Gate at that time, remembering Liu Ming's appearance, it shouldn't be wrong."

And later, I went to the registration office to inquire, and a few days ago someone did register the name Liu Ming to enter the city, and besides, the identity plate originally recorded the Mixed Yuan Gate, but later changed it to a casual cultivation ...... at his request."

Again, as long as the benefits are enough, no secret is a secret.

The people in charge of registering to enter the city are all the hard-working outer disciples of the Qianshan Sect.

Selling information can be regarded as an important means for them to make extra money.

The Thousand Mountains Sect also turns a blind eye on weekdays.

Of course, if you provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked because of this,

The Qianshan faction will open these temporary workers who violate the law and discipline from the door, make a clear relationship with them, and severely punish them.

After Liu Ming's identity was determined through the registration information for entering the city,

Wang Chuanrong did not relax, but frowned,

"Why did this Liu Ming, obviously run away, but returned to Wu State, and even swaggered to Qianshan City?"

The old man snorted coldly, "It should be that guy who thought he could build a successful foundation, so he came back to take revenge......

Wang Chuanrong said, "What you think is too simple, even if he wants to come back to take revenge, he can change his face and come back quietly, not to mention such an important thing as building a foundation, why would he take the risk of coming to Qianshan City to lease the cave mansion, doesn't he know that our Wang family has an industry and clansmen in Qianshan City?" ”

The old man was stunned, "It's really a bit abnormal......"

Wang Chuanrong's expression was solemn, "It's too abnormal, he seems to be deliberately exposing his whereabouts now, planning something......"

These people of the big family are not fools,

Especially those who can sit in the position of the head of the family are even more talented.

So I immediately saw that this thing was abnormal.

In fact, it is also because this plan is too crude and full of loopholes.

The first is that the monk's disguise is very simple.

It's just that you, a person with an enemy, unabashedly use your original appearance to swagger through the market.

Then there is the foundation building, which is the most important moment for a monk.

How could anyone specifically find a city full of enemies to venture out and build a foundation?

Even if Qianshan City has a good reputation, the leased cave is guarded by a formation, and no one dares to disturb it easily.

But it's also too risky.

Not to mention anything else, if the Wang family really wants to do it,

As long as you find out the secret room of the cave house that it rents specifically, and send the dead to attack,

You don't really need to break through the secret room of the cave, as long as you disturb the other party at the critical moment,

This greatly reduces the chances of success in building its foundation.

It is difficult to build the basics, even if there is a building foundation, the probability of success is only fifty or sixty percent.

If you are disturbed again in the process, I am afraid that the foundation will fail directly.

If the foundation building fails, even if you don't die, you will be seriously injured and your cultivation will regress.

The main thing is that in addition to Qianshan City, there are many immortal cultivation cities in Youzhou, so Liu Ming can come back after building the foundation of other cities.

So when all these things are combined, Liu Ming's motives are very suspicious.

This also had to make Wang Chuanrong think more.

The old man was puzzled, "Family master, what is the reason why Liu Ming has built a foundation in Qianshan City without fear and deliberately leaked his whereabouts?" Even if he succeeds in building the foundation, he is only cultivating in the early stage of foundation building, and the ancestor is in the middle stage of foundation building, and he was able to destroy his Mixed Yuan Gate at the beginning, and now he can naturally destroy him, is he not afraid at all? ”

Wang Chuanrong said in a deep voice, "This is the biggest suspicion, his performance at this time is fearless, I'm afraid he hugged his thighs." That guy had only just reached the seventh layer in the late stage of qi refining, and it had only been a few years, and he dared to try to build a foundation, and he had definitely found a backer......"

After some analysis, it is most likely that Liu Ming hugged a certain thigh, so he will have no fear.

In this case, the problem is a bit serious.

The old man asked again, "If he finds a reliable mountain, why doesn't he just come to the door to take revenge?" Rather, to deliberately reveal your whereabouts? ”

Wang Chuanrong pondered for a while and said, "He must be planning something...... Could it be that the backer he found was the Thousand Mountains faction? ”

After thinking about it, he really felt that this was the most likely.

Otherwise, why would that guy dare to swagger through the city in Thousand Mountains City, and then lease the cave mansion to risk breaking through the foundation.

Only with the backing of the Qianshan faction can he dare to be so unscrupulous.

He was a little stunned, "Could it be that guy deliberately appeared, and let us find out that he was building a foundation in Thousand Mountains City, he wanted to deliberately lead us to do it, and then ......?"

Thinking of this, Wang Chuanrong was really a little surprised.

The old man also exclaimed, "Could it be that the Thousand Mountains Sect wants to do something to my Wang family?" That's why Liu Ming was brought in, so that there is a reason to do it? ”

Though the monks eat the law of the jungle,

But as long as the forces are formed, there are concerns, and there are scruples between each other.

Even if the Qianshan Sect is a Jindan sect, it can easily deal with a foundation-building family like the Wang family,

But to do it, you also need an excuse to get by on the surface.

Because Wu Guoming is a righteous sect on the face,

Moreover, the Qianshan Sect dominates the cultivation world of the Wu Kingdom, and these other forces are all paying all kinds of taxes.

It is equivalent to the protection fee.

If the Thousand Mountains Sect exterminated a Tsukiji family for no reason,

It will make other forces panic, and even unite for self-preservation.

Therefore, even if the Qianshan faction wants to move the Wang family, it must find a passable excuse.

And obviously, helping the Liu family of the Mixed Yuan Gate to avenge is a good excuse.

The old man was a little panicked, and said, "The grievances between my Wang family and the Mixed Yuan Sect back then, but the Qianshan faction acquiesced, and then they also shared a lot of benefits, how could they deal with my Wang family for the sake of a Liu Ming who has not yet succeeded in building a foundation?" ”

Back then, the Wang family also found an excuse for the murder of a disciple in the clan, and suddenly attacked, coupled with the cooperation of Neiying, which destroyed the Mixed Yuan Gate.

And at that time, the Thousand Mountains faction did not say anything, and acquiesced in their actions.

This is naturally the reason why the Wang family greeted the Qianshan faction in advance and gave enough benefits.

The reason why the old man panicked was because he was the one who cooperated with the outside and opened the guardian formation of the Mixed Yuan Gate, which allowed the Wang family to sneak attack and destroy the Mixed Yuan Gate.

As an undercover agent sent by the Wang family to the Mixed Yuan Gate, after making great contributions, he was indeed reused when he came back.

But now that Liu Ming is back to take revenge, the first one will definitely not let him go.

Wang Chuanrong said in a deep voice, "Don't panic yet, this is just speculation, it doesn't have to be that the Qianshan faction wants to deal with my Wang family, and even if it is the Qianshan faction, they didn't come to the door directly, but released the news first, obviously wanting us to make a mistake first, and then find an excuse to make trouble......"

The old man was frightened into a cold sweat, he had indeed thought of looking for a dead man to interfere with Liu Ming's foundation building at all costs.

Because he knew that if Liu Ming succeeded in building the foundation, he would not let go of himself first.

But now it seems that if he finds someone to do it, it will give the forces behind Liu Ming more excuses to do it.

In the inner city of Thousand Hills City, he openly attacked the leased cave house,

This is the sign of the Thousand Mountains Sect.

As long as there is this reason, the Thousand Mountains Sect can directly destroy the Wang family.

Wang Chuanrong instructed, "So don't act rashly, if you move, you will fall for those people's schemes, your goal is too big and eye-catching, don't go back to the city during this time......"

The old man responded, "Good master ......"

When the old man is gone,

Wang Chuanrong came to a quiet courtyard in the depths of the manor, "Ancestor, Chuanrong asks to see ......"

After a while, a voice said, "Come in......"

When Wang Chuanrong entered the small courtyard, he met the ancestor of the Wang family, who was originally in retreat.

He reported the news he had found out and his own speculation.

Wang Chuanrong no longer had his previous calmness at this time, and said anxiously,

"Ancestor, has the Thousand Mountains Sect noticed something?"

The ancestor of the Wang family muttered, "That matter is very secret, and as far as you know from me, it is impossible to leak it." And if it was because of that, the Thousand Mountains Sect would have killed it a long time ago, so it would be impossible to find any excuses......"

Obviously, the Wang family is plotting something unspeakable,

It just happened to make up for Liu Ming's appearance that there were other forces that wanted to target them.

The ancestor of the Wang family said, "Don't mess with yourself, this matter is not my Wang family's business, if something happens, naturally someone is more anxious than us......"

Wang Chuanrong said, "Then how to deal with Liu Ming's matter?" ”

The ancestor of the Wang family snorted coldly, "Since he wants to come back to find death, then it is enough to fulfill him." You go and find the little steward who manages the lease of the cave mansion, give him a few thousand spirit stones, and let him break the spirit gathering array when he senses that the spiritual energy of the secret room where the house is fluctuating the most, so that he can interrupt its foundation building, even if it then consumes spirit stones to make up for it, it will greatly reduce the success rate of foundation building......

Wang Chuanrong's eyes lit up, "Building a foundation pays attention to one go, and it really only takes a large section to make it fall short, and the ancestor is ......wise."

The little steward who managed the lease point was only a late-stage cultivation of qi refining, and a few thousand spirit stones were already a huge amount of money for him.

It can indeed impress it to risk breaking the spirit gathering circle of a certain secret room.

When something happens, he just needs to shirk and say that he is not careful, and at most he will be punished with no pain.

Li Xiao on the other side will not know the game he has arranged casually.

will be made into a mess of conspiracy by the Wang family's brain.

His purpose is actually very simple, that is, to confirm Liu Ming's identity,

After the Wang family found out about him, he was not afraid of the so-called interference with the secret room or any means.

He has long been in the middle stage of foundation building, so he is naturally not afraid of disturbing.

And the Wang family is the ancestor of the Wang family, a monk in the middle of the foundation building,

With his cultivation, coupled with the green poison in the Soul Eater Banner, he can completely crush the average mid-stage foundation building monk,

Even to the monks in the later stage of the foundation building, he was not afraid.

Strange world,

Li Xiao came to a bus stop.

It is said that every month at 3 a.m. on the 3rd of the month, a non-existent bus No. 33 appears.

This bus is an ordinary two-star ghost,

At the same time, it is also a means of transportation to enter a large hidden ghost called the ancient city.

According to the records, the ancient city is very large, like an ancient city, so it is called the ancient city.

Li Xiao also saw the information records that he came here.

When he came to the bus stop,

It was discovered that there was already a player waiting there.

It was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl wearing a casual hoodie and carrying a backpack.

The girl was also stunned when she saw him, but she didn't expect that someone would dare to come and take the No. 33 ghost bus.

Although the No. 33 ghost bus is just an ordinary two-star ghost snake,

But because it connects to the hidden ghost of this ancient city, even if you complete the task on the bus, you can't leave.

You will be taken directly into the ancient city.

And the Ancient City Ghost Snake is one of the most dangerous two-star ghost snakes that was officially evaluated by Qincheng.

Because it's big, it's not just weird, it's also very difficult.

At first, there were players who entered in groups, but after the heavy losses, few people entered.

Li Xiao also frowned slightly when he saw the girl,

Because as long as you enter the ghost snake together, you will be grouped up by default.

He went in to catch weirdness, but he didn't want to be a burden.

He said directly, "You can go back, go to other ghosts, or come back next month." ”

The girl was stunned, she didn't expect him to be so domineering, "Why?" It's not your ......."

Li Xiao said, "I'm kind enough to remind you that if you go into the ghost with me, you will regret it when the time comes." ”

He entered the ghost snake to catch the boss, which will make the difficulty of the ghost snake suddenly increase many times.

It's like the dungeon of Horror Farm, if the other players are with him,

I'm afraid I would have been hacked to death by the frenzied terrifying scarecrow a long time ago.

Therefore, teaming up with him is not only not beneficial, but even more dangerous.

The girl glared and said, "What do I regret?" But you and I went into the ghost snake together, taking advantage of it, you know? ”

Li Xiao smiled, "I still take advantage? What do I take advantage of? ”

The girl said proudly, "I have made a lot of preparations for this ghost, I will definitely be able to complete the hidden task and clear the customs perfectly, as long as you follow me, even if you can't clear the customs perfectly, you can successfully complete the ordinary task clearance, isn't it a big advantage?" ”

Li Xiao said, "Are you so confident?" ”

The girl said, "Of course......"

Immediately, her expression darkened again, "Actually, I am here to save my sister, after they teamed up to enter the ancient city ghost snake, it has not come out for a month, everyone said that they can't come out and are dead, but I don't believe it, my sister is so powerful, how can she die in a two-star ghost dragon......"

Li Xiao smashed his mouth, "A month, I'm afraid there is really no hope......"

The girl blushed, "Why is there no hope?" It's not without ...... that players who came out after being trapped in a large dungeon for more than a month were before."

Li Xiao said, "Really? Anyway, I've never been in the ghost for more than a day. ”

He did get into the ghost and solved almost all the problems in one day.

If the problem can't be solved, then solve the trick and the person who created the problem.

However, some of the more complex ghosts do take a long time to complete the task.

For example, if you follow the normal process,

To investigate the truth of the farm, and to investigate the root cause in Fuzhen Niangniang Temple, I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it in four or five days.

There are also some ghosts that resemble illusions, and when they are trapped, they will become addicted to them and cannot extricate themselves.

Slowly assimilated, believing that he is one of them.

This kind of ghost is actually the most terrifying, similar to the monk's mental illusion.

Even if the strength is strong, if the heart is not enough, it will overturn.

The girl cuts and "brags......"

Li Xiao didn't explain, "You said to save your sister, it's not the same batch of ghosts, the dungeon that the player is in will be different, except that the boss is the same, the tasks are all independent, how do you save her?" ”

The girl said, "As long as I can complete both the normal tasks and the hidden tasks, I can pass the level perfectly, and the ghost snake will disappear, and the trapped people will be able to get out of trouble as long as they don't die, which has been recorded before......"

Li Xiao said, "I see...... So are you sure you're sure to complete the game perfectly? ”

It's not yet 3 o'clock, and he naturally doesn't mind chatting with this chick to pass the time.

The girl's expression was a little gloomy, "Yes, it should be......"

Li Xiao said, "You ran away from home, right?" ”

The girl said warily, "How do you know that you know me?" ”

Li Xiao smiled, "It seems that it can be seen that one girl is trapped in a ghost, and it would be strange for her parents to let another one go on an adventure......"

The girl's expression was a little gloomy, "Father did say that there was no hope, but I don't believe it, my sister is so powerful......"

Li Xiao said, "You are also strange, since you think your sister is powerful, then just wait for the news outside, but you have to go on an adventure, if your sister comes out and you are trapped again, then what should I do?" ”

The girl was stunned, obviously thinking that what Li Xiao said made some sense.

At this moment, a bus drove silently.

The bright red No. 33 on the bus is particularly conspicuous.

With a creak, the bus stopped at the side of the platform and opened the door.

Li Xiao walked up,

I heard the driver say in a deep voice, "Invest 10 yuan." ”

Li Xiao raised his hand and pressed it on the place where the card was swiped, and 10 trick coins were deducted.

The girl wanted to follow on the bus.

Li Xiao said, "Don't go, think more about your parents, and if your sister can really survive a month, then she should be able to come back after tonight......"

The girl looked at the young man in front of her in a daze.

The door creaked, the door closed, and the bus drove away.

The girl returned to the bus stop and sat down in frustration.

She didn't know if she really thought of her parents, or if she was temporarily timid, so she didn't get into the car at the last minute.

But she didn't go back, just sat there blankly,

The man said that after tonight, my sister should be able to come back.

She chose to believe the man's words.

On the bus,

Li Xiao received the task,

Mission: Make it to the terminal alive.

He looked at the car full of weirdos, came to a yellow hairy trick, and slapped it away.

"When I see the elders, I don't know how to give up a seat......"

A strange car turned to look at him.

He Shi Shiran sat down, "What do you see?" If it weren't for the fear of affecting the driver's driving, I wouldn't be able to enter the ancient city, so I'd accept you now, get out of ......"

The aura of fear began to emanate from him,

It made all the weirdness tremble.

The bus was crooked, and apparently the driver was also frightened.

Li Xiao said angrily, "Driver, can you drive well...... Forget it, I'll do it myself......"

As he spoke, he lifted the driver aside,

I sat in the driver's seat and drove the bus.

"Show me the way, if you go the wrong way, Lao Tzu will let you know what real fear is......"

The bus driver shivered and began to show the way.

After driving a while, when I came to a bridge,

Suddenly, an extremely fat and ugly aunt rushed out, shouting, "I want to get out of the car, give me a parking ......"

Saying that, he ignored Li Xiao's fear food aura, and rushed up, wanting to snatch the steering wheel.

Hidden Mission: This is a tragedy that could have been avoided, but unfortunately no one stopped it at the time, can you avoid this tragedy?

Li Xiao sighed lightly, "There is still a hidden mission?" ”

As he drove, he took out the Soul Eater Banner and shook it gently.

With a bang, an equally fat and ugly green weird stood in front of the aunt's strange body,

"The one who stepped on the horse dared to snatch the steering wheel of my boss, you are looking for death!!"

Green Poison roared angrily and collided with Big Mom.

In the loud bang bang, a huge shockwave capable of destroying a small mountain spread between the two of them,

The terrifying shock wave scattered the other strange waves,

The weaker ones just drifted away and died.

But the small bus was unscathed.

Li Xiao snorted coldly, and shook the Soul Eater Banner while driving,

In the jingle bell, the aunt was quickly suppressed,

She's always just a transitional boss in an ordinary two-star ghost,

Originally, he was not a green poison opponent who had been promoted to a two-star elite boss,

Coupled with the interference of the soul bell, it was immediately completely suppressed.

Then Li Xiao shook the Soul Devouring Banner and put it in.

Mission Accomplished: This is a tragedy that could have been avoided, but unfortunately no one stopped it at the time, can you avoid this tragedy?

Reward: 10,000 Trick Coins

Reward: Certificate of Righteousness and Courage (item)

Li Xiao's face was strange, "You actually issued me a certificate of righteousness and bravery?" ”

Certificate of Righteousness and Courage: Two-star props, with this certificate, you can enjoy a 20% discount in the secondary trading market.

Li Xiao smiled and put away the unexpected joy.

Soon the bus was driving into a deep tunnel.

When I got out of the tunnel, a quaint city appeared in front of me.

The bus stopped in front of the city gates,

The driver said, "Distinguished passengers, the terminal has arrived at ......"

Complete the mission: Make it to the terminal alive.

Reward: 1000 Trick Coins.

It's just a normal quest, and nothing drops except for Trick Coin.

When Li Xiao saw that the destination had arrived, he easily collected the driver and other passengers into the Soul Eater Banner.

He got out of the car and looked at the ancient city.

The ancient city is like a huge monster with its mouth open,

Waiting for the entry of the prey.

Li Xiao smiled slightly, "It's not certain who is the prey, I heard that there are a lot of weird things here......"

There is no strange guard at the city gate,

He pushed open the gate and entered.

When he entered the city gate, his eyes suddenly opened up,

It was really an ancient city.

It is bustling inside, with many shops on the street, and it is very lively.

At the same time, Li Xiao received the task.

Hidden Mission: Investigate the secrets of the destruction of the ancient city.
