Lin Qi and the others entered the mountain and walked along the path according to their previous memories, but along the way, they encountered checkpoints set up everywhere, which obviously blocked this place.

Helplessly, a few people had to make a detour, but most of the roads to the mountain village were cliffs and difficult to pass, but there were still no problems with the difficulty of several people who were monks practicing qi and building foundations. It's just that the speed can't help but slow down.

After a few hours of detour, several people finally came to the mountain village of the Shu Pope, but the mountain village at this time was different from the previous peace.

At this time, there was no longer the population of the past in the mountain village, and only the residue of charred ash remained in the medicine fields in the fields. Most of the originally warm and peaceful village had been burned to the ground, and the shape of the houses could not be distinguished among the charred ruins, except for one or two wooden stakes that were still burning and scattered sparks in the twilight light.

Lin Qi smelled a familiar smell again, and at the same time felt the miserable scene in front of him, his hands clenched hard unconsciously. It's too familiar, such a scene is too familiar to him, even if he can't see it with his eyes, even if he can only detect it through his divine thoughts, he still knows what is going on here!

Jin Shanpo couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, and then glared at the boss so much that his eyes flashed red, and he strode into the mountain village to check room by room.

In the end, he returned to Lin Qi with a shocked face.

"How's it going?"

Jin Shan Poyan clenched his fists fiercely and sighed.

"These wolf-hearted things!"

When Lin Qi heard this, an irrepressible anger erupted.

He was silent, but a layer of cold murderous aura appeared outside his body, and then turned into sword qi scattered on the ground, leaving deep sword marks.

Seeing this, Su Jianxin's eyes also showed a rare anger.

"The Divine Guide is really a good means. ”

Lin Qi forcibly suppressed the fluctuations in his heart.

"We must not let the divine guide continue to be the pope, such a person is not worthy of being the pope, such a person will only become more tragedies!"

"Do you have a clue about finding the Pope first?"

Su Jianxin asked.

Lin Qi recalled for a moment and said.

"I still have memories, but I just rely on feelings, after all, I was blind at the time, and there is no guarantee of it. ”

And at this moment, Lin Qi, who was sharp-eared, heard a strange movement behind him, and then turned around and drew his sword, and Su Jianxin and the others also turned around and guarded behind him when they saw this.

After a while, more than thirty people came out of the mountains and forests, all of them were disciples, but when they saw that it was Xia Li, who was the leader of the group, several people also put away their guards.

And Xia Li was also surprised to see a few people.

"Why did a few distinguished guests return here, and now that the situation is a few people, it is better to return to Shangzong. ”

Lin Qi said when he heard this.

"Pope Shu is a person who is familiar to everyone, even if she has the blood of the devil, but she does not do the work of the devil, but heals everyone without asking for anything in return. We also have the heart to distinguish between right and wrong, and how can we ignore such injustices. Since everyone calls us the distinguished guests of the upper sect, then the people of the upper sect must have the deeds of the people of the upper sect. ”

Su Jianxin also said: "We will also contribute to the Pope, at least to keep the Pope safe." ”

Jin Shan Po was more upright and said loudly directly.

"Kill the god guide that lost his conscience, look at what he did here, I can't stand it without killing him!"

When those sect members heard this, they admired Lin Qi and the others for a while, and Xia Li also said.

"It's rare to have such chivalrous deeds, and a few of them are in the name of young heroes, and we thank them here. ”

After that, everyone entered the village and saw the tragic situation in the village, one of the old men analyzed.

"Judging from the traces here, they must have taken most of the people away. ”

Then everyone began to discuss countermeasures.

In the end, it was decided that Xia Li would lead everyone to stick to this place, and Lin Qi and a few people would find the Pope and then take the Pope away.

After the discussion, the night was already dark, and in order not to delay the time, Lin Qi and the others decided to go on the road immediately.

And at this time, the new Pope and the Xia family patriarch in Qingyang Town stood on top of the attic, and the Pope stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the mountain forest in the distance, as if he was looking for something?

"I don't know how sure Patriarch Xia is in the face of Shu Caoqing?"

Hearing this, Patriarch Xia laughed lightly and stretched out a slap.

Seeing this, the new pope said suspiciously.

"Five-five?"

Patriarch Xia said with a smile and shaking his hand.

"I'm not sure at all. ”

The new pope was surprised.

"Judging from the situation that day, Shu Caoqing is nothing more than that, why is Patriarch Xia not confident at all?"

Patriarch Xia asked rhetorically.

"Do you think this Shu Qing cultivation is geometric?"

The new pope hesitated for a moment.

"It is rumored that he entered the knot pill more than a hundred years ago, and it seems that today it is only a four-gap knot. ”

Patriarch Xia grinned.

"So I admire your courage very much, I have also been in the knot pill for a long time, and under the penance of many elixirs, I have now reached the cultivation of the three-gap knot pill. And I always felt a sense of powerlessness in my heart when I faced Shu Shuqing, and I fought with her and fell to the ground even when she was suppressed by your big array, and even almost couldn't stand. ”

Saying this, a trace of worry flashed in Patriarch Xia's eyes.

"Her cultivation is above me, and I estimate that she has at least the cultivation of the Seven Gaps Jie Dan. ”

When the new pope heard this, his legs suddenly weakened, and he was just a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, and he actually fought with Shu Caoqing that day. Thinking about it carefully, if Shu Caoqing really wants to kill, I'm afraid that this place will already be ruined.

"So you should be glad, glad that Shu Cao Qing is not the same person as you, and that Shu Cao Qing didn't kill you on the spot that day. ”

Hearing this, the new pope couldn't help but feel a chill running from head to toe.

"Then tomorrow to strangle Shu Caoqing is not to send him to death. ”

And Patriarch Xia looked at the new pope with deep meaning.

"Don't pretend to be with me, if you want to cooperate, then show sincerity. ”

After saying that, the Xia patriarch stretched out his hand and wiped it around his waist, and a longbow appeared in his hand.

"This bow is the longbow that killed Shuqing's parents three hundred years ago, and the blood of his parents is still on the arrow. I can use the secret technique to use the bloodline as a guide to injure Shu Caoqing, as my sincerity. ”

The new pope's dry eyes rolled in his sockets when he heard this, and then he also took out a demon-slaying pestle covered with scriptures.

"I worked so hard to get this thing, and with it, I have the power to kill Shu Caoqing. All she needed to do was stab the demon pestle into her body, and no matter how powerful she was, she wouldn't be able to return to the sky. ”

Patriarch Xia also asked with a smile.

"So the question is who is going to stab her with this thing?"

The new pope answered mysteriously.

"There is no need for Patriarch Xia to worry about this, I have my own arrangements. ”

As he spoke, there was a hint of treachery in their eyes.

"Even then, we can't just do it. ”

Patriarch Xia also said when he heard this.

"This kind of thing, how can we only do it with the two of us, I can make all the surrounding forces send people with the order to eliminate the demons. Although there are not many decent ones among those forces, they can more or less come up with some monks who have built foundations. ”

As he spoke, the two of them let out a laugh together.

At the same time, the manpower of the major families and forces has gathered here, just waiting for the decisive battle tomorrow.
