Duan Xi heard Senior Brother Liu say that he had something to do with him, so he arched his hand and said, "Okay, let's talk while walking." As he spoke, he took Qin Wen and Ming'er and walked down the mountain.

Senior Brother Liu said as he walked: "Senior Brother Duan, why haven't you seen Master Shen Dan go out of the valley to collect medicine during this time?"

Duan Xi said casually: "Shen Danshi is in retreat in the Medicine Valley, it has been a few months, it is estimated that he will be out of the customs these days, what's the matter?

Qin Wen heard them talking about Shen Danshi as they walked in front, and couldn't help but pay attention to it, at this time they were still walking relatively fast, and they had already caught up with the three Qingyi disciples who were walking down the mountain with their heads down, and the Qingyi disciples saw Master and Duan Yi coming over, so they hurriedly dodged away on the side of the road, their eyes were aimed at Qin Wen behind them, and there was a look of resentment.

Senior Brother Liu didn't pay attention to the three of them, so he said in a low voice: "When Shen Danshi went to the Frost Valley to find me last time, she said that she had a thousand years of Tianxin Grass, and you have already found some medicines, let me help find some more copper whisker stones, it just so happened that a clansman from my family came to look for me in the valley, I just asked him to go back and look for it, it happened to be sent over the day before yesterday, I was going to look for you in the past two days, and I happened to meet it here today." ”

Duan Xi suddenly realized at this time: "A few days ago, Master Shen Danshi and I were looking for Tongshu Stone again, but there has been no news, why didn't I think that Senior Brother Your family lived near Mengshan Mountain, and I was really negligent at that time, this time Senior Brother Liu, you really helped a lot, as long as Master Shen Danshi can match Tianxin juice, there will definitely be a share of Senior Brother Liu." ”

Senior Brother Liu smiled and arched his hand: "Although the copper whisker stone is produced in the Mengshan area, the output is extremely rare, but Senior Brother Duan, don't worry, I have already sent a letter back to the elder of the clan, asking him to collect more copper whisker stones, and I think there should be no problem in preparing Tianxin juice in the future." ”

When Qin Wen heard this, he already understood in his heart, although he didn't know what kind of medicine Tianxin juice was, it was estimated that it should be related to talisman making, and it was extremely precious, no wonder Senior Brother Liu was so kind to Duan Xi today, he also had his own reasons.

At this time, Qin Wen saw Ming'er's brows furrowed, and asked, "Ming'er, is there something wrong?"

Ming'er shook her head, pouted behind her with her mouth and said, "They have been following, and they always feel a little uncomfortable." Qin Wen turned around and saw that the three disciples in green shirts were not far behind him, and he couldn't help but smile, feeling that Ming'er was indeed a little childish.

However, Qin Wen still appreciates Ming'er's performance today, although he didn't listen to his own words and went back to find someone, but it does take a lot of courage to fight side by side with him, so he said casually: "Ming'er, if you meet someone who bullies you in the sect in the future, just like today, I dare to say that even if you go up the mountain to chop wood by yourself in the future, they will not dare to rob your smoke and ink wood again." ”

Ming'er nodded and said, "Thanks to Brother Qin, if it wasn't for Brother Qin telling me to do this a few days ago, maybe I would have to leave a bundle for him every time I cut firewood in the future." ”

After a few people walked to the mouth of the medicine valley, Qin Wen and Ming'er said goodbye to Duan Xi and Senior Brother Liu, and then returned to the medicine valley.

Qin Wen breathed in the medicine valley for two days, and the depleted vitality gradually returned to normal, and then he continued to live with Ming'er in the plain medicine valley, Shen Danshi still did not go out, Duan Xi also occasionally came to see the Tianxin grass that had been fully lived, and with Qin Wen's help, the rest of the Tianxin grass that was about to reach a thousand years was also transplanted.

After nearly half a month, the weather gradually became cooler, the elixir in the medicine garden had been repaired for a while, and then it was time for natural growth, Ming'er and Qin Wen were also much more relaxed, Ming'er began to practice alchemy in her own Dan room in her free time, and Qin Wen practiced in the room all day.

Due to the very strong aura in the Cold Maple Valley, Qin Wen's cultivation speed has also accelerated a lot, after this period of practice, it has almost touched the bottleneck period of the Xuanshi upper rank, but the time distance from the last breakthrough is too close, Qin Wen did not deliberately pursue speed, but has been accumulating vitality naturally.

In the evening, Qin Wen came out of his room and saw that there was no light in Ming'er's Dan room or in the room, so he shouted suspiciously: "Ming'er, Ming'er." ”

Didn't hear Ming'er's answer, Qin Wen frowned slightly, when he got up early, Ming'er once told him to go to the Hanfeng set below to buy some elixir and come back, but after a day's time, if it was normal, it should also come back, Hanfeng Valley and Hanfeng Ji are almost connected, and Ming'er often goes in and out and nothing happens, could it be that there is any special situation today.

Qin Wen pushed open the door of the Dan room and the room, the inside was empty, and he was a little alert in his heart, and when he came out to see that there was no figure of Ming'er in the medicine valley, he decided to go outside to look for it first.

Just when Qin Wen had just walked out of the valley, a gray-shirted disciple suddenly ran from the direction of the back mountain, and came directly to Qin Wen's side in front of the medicine valley gate, stopped and panted and said, "Are you a disciple of this medicine valley?"

Qin Wen nodded, and the gray-shirted disciple pointed in the direction of the mountain behind him and said, "Just now I saw a few people on the mountain who took Ming'er away, and there was no one nearby at that time, so I had to run back to tell you." ”

Qin Wen was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Who are they?

The gray-shirted disciple still kept panting and said: "I don't know about this, when I went up the mountain to chop wood, I met Ming'er in the back mountain, and we also said a few words, I watched Ming'er go down the slope of the Yanmo Forest to Dahou Mountain, so I asked him what he was going to do, and he said at the time that he was going to find some elixir." ”

But just as he was at the bottom of the hill, I saw a few men in black suddenly coming from the mountain, covering his mouth and heading towards the mountains and forests to the north. ”

When Qin Wen heard this, he patted the gray-shirted disciple's shoulder and said, "Xiexie, I want to ask you for a favor and tell Mr. Duan in Wind Valley about this matter, and I'll go find Ming'er now." After speaking, he flew away in the direction of the back mountain.

The gray-shirted disciple agreed loudly: "I am the introductory disciple of Wind Valley, you should be careful yourself, and I will go and tell the master now." ”

Qin Wen was anxious at this time, although he had not completely walked through all the back mountains, but in the smoke and ink forest, he had also seen a dense mountain forest in the north, and it was indeed very difficult to find a person, and at this time he couldn't help but have a question in his heart: "Who kidnapped Ming'er?"

Qin Wen was also constantly thinking in the process of flying, this is within the sect of Cold Maple Valley, it is unlikely that he is an outsider, but Ming'er is just an ordinary Dan disciple, and he doesn't have too many spirit stones and pills on his body, what is the motive for kidnapping him? Qin Wen couldn't help but think of the face of the Qingyi disciple of Frost Valley in his mind at this time.

However, this suspicion was immediately denied by Qin Wen, even if the Qingyi disciple had a grudge against Ming'er and himself, then why did he kidnap Ming'er, if they really wanted to find trouble with Ming'er, they could definitely take advantage of the fact that they were not by Ming'er's side, and beat them up, and there was no reason to kidnap Ming'er to the back mountain.

After thinking for a long time, Qin Wen didn't have the slightest clue, raised his eyes and saw that he had passed through the smoke and ink forest, and was about to come to the bottom of the hillside, Qin Wen also put away his thoughts, and carefully used his divine sense to check the traces left on the road, Qin Wen was also very clear in his heart, if he rashly entered the mountains and forests to search, even if he looked for three days, he would not be able to check one-tenth of the mountains and forests in the future.

He was going to find the place where Ming'er was kidnapped first, and then go into the mountain to look for it according to the traces left, because the disciples who went up the mountain on weekdays were chopping wood in the smoke and ink forest on the hillside, so basically no one went down to this side of the hillside, and I heard the gray-shirted disciple just now say that Ming'er was walking down the hillside, and it shouldn't be too difficult to find the traces.

Sure enough, Qin Wen found a messy footprint not far from where he landed, and flew to the side of the footprints, Qin Wen saw seven or eight trampled footprints on this piece of grass, it seemed that this was the place where Ming'er was hijacked, and then he used his divine sense to check the situation around ten zhang or so.

Finally found a slightly shallow footprint near Wuzhang, Qin Wen couldn't help nodding slightly in his heart, it seems that this footprint was left by the monk who hijacked Ming'er when he flew vertically, he followed the footprints all the way to the past, judging from the footprints left, the cultivation of these monks is not high, if it is a spiritual level monk like Duan Xi, a teleportation will be a few miles away, it is impossible to leave such obvious footprints.

After entering the mountain forest, the footprints are even more obvious, almost every three zhang, Qin Wen's divine sense can easily check the direction of the footprints, and has been tracking the time of half a pillar of incense, Qin Wen can't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, from the gray-shirted disciple running back to his own flying up the mountain to track, Ming'er should have been robbed for half an hour, and now every minute and second is related to Ming'er's life safety.

After Qin Wen passed through the mountain forest, in front of him was a long and narrow valley, there was a rumbling sound of water in the innermost part of the valley, and after continuing to follow the footprints to find the other side of the valley, a white waterfall appeared in front of him under the moonlight, the terrain here is relatively open, in order not to be discovered by the monks who kidnapped Ming'er, Qin Wen flew in the shadow of the valley.

When he arrived at the waterhole next to the waterfall, Qin Wen suddenly found that all the footprints here had completely disappeared, as if all the people had disappeared out of thin air, and Qin Wen's heart suddenly cooled by half.
