176. Pit and promotion

Tang Zirong saw Zhang Yiyi at a glance, who was neither early nor late, and returned to the opening of the secret realm alone.

The two didn't have any communication, and they didn't even make eye contact, as if they didn't know each other very well.

And the others only took a cursory look at Zhang Yiyi after she arrived, at most they felt that Zhang Yiyi was lucky, and she came back safely after staying alone in the secret realm for twenty days.

After all, like they basically have a fixed companion to walk together, there is always a care for them.

As the time for the opening of the secret realm got closer and closer, someone finally realized that the two most important sons of the Yan branch had not returned.

One is the fifth young master, with two followers, the other is the second young master, and even two Jin Dan guards accompany him, it stands to reason that they should be the most secure and the most able to come back safely.

Especially the second young master!

But in fact, until the secret realm was opened, all the people who had gathered here left the secret realm, and then the secret realm was closed again, and they never saw the second young master and the fifth young master again.

"What's going on, the second and fifth?"

Outside the secret, a middle-aged elder of the Tang family looked at a total of twenty people who came out alive, and his face was iron-blue.

Among these twenty people, there is no fifth, let alone second, and the two Jindan guards specially assigned to the second by the third master are nowhere to be found.

Even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to accept the facts in front of him, the second and fifth were obviously both folded in the secret realm.

Thinking that the two young masters with the most noble identities and great potential in the generation of Yan Zhi died in the secret realm at the same time, the middle-aged elders had a cold heart, and they didn't know how to explain after they went back, and how to face the anger of the head of the family.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and no one replied out loud.

The secret realm is closed, and if you can't get out, you can go anywhere, isn't it just dead?

They are not in the same group as the second and fifth young people, so they really can't say it clearly.

"Elder, I don't know the situation of the fifth brother, and I haven't encountered it since I entered. As for the second brother, I met it twice at first. ”

The Tang family's young lady, who was also not bad, had to explain in the face of the elder's anger: "The second brother seems to have picked those natural treasures and strange flowers and herbs to enter, and this time the demon beasts in the secret territory are particularly fierce. I also advised my second brother not to always go to those places that were too dangerous to take risks, but my second brother didn't listen to me at all. I haven't touched it since. ”

This is really true at all, but because the Tang family has a good face, it is naturally impossible to tell anyone that every good thing she wants to pick is given by someone first, and then the places she goes to later seem to be more and more dangerous, and the two parties have never encountered each other again.

Of course, this young lady was also somewhat induced by Tang Zirong intentionally or unintentionally, and took it for granted that Er Shao had ventured all the way with such good helpers as two Jindan guards, but it was a pity that in the end, she was too greedy, and she was stunned to take her life, but it was a pity that those good things that were picked by Er Shao in the morning but did not have a chance to be brought out of the secret realm.

After her words were finished, she quickly attracted the circumstantial evidence of several other people.

"The Second Young Master should have picked a lot of genius treasures, and at that time, we originally wanted to follow them in the same direction as they went, but we were warned by the Second Young Master, saying that those places were too dangerous, and they would pick them themselves, so let's not rush forward to die without our own strength. ”

Among these people who survived, there were really several people who had seen Er Shao leave with two Jin Dan guards from several extremely dangerous places with heavenly and earthly treasures, and they were really warned by Tang Er Shao.

At that time, Tang Er Shao and the three of them were almost crazy, and they went to a place and missed once, and every time they found that they were robbed of someone, but they didn't know who dared to take food in front of him, so that when they saw someone who wanted to follow them, of course they wouldn't have any good faces.

And some people who were warned and angry for no reason didn't dare to refute and ask more, and only after the three of them left, did they go in to check on it with the idea of seeing if they could get some left.

In this way, it is natural to find that not only the best things are inside, but everything that is useful is almost scavenged.

Coincidentally, an extremely wonderful misunderstanding was born.

Many people thought that the natural treasures, spiritual flowers and herbs in those very dangerous places were all wrapped up by the second young master of the Tang family, but they didn't know that invisibly, their second young man actually carried a big black cauldron for outsiders.

And all this, of course, is in Tang Zirong's handiwork, but unfortunately, except for the two members of the Tang family who have long since died, no one else knows at all.

Hearing these words, the middle-aged elder immediately understood that the second child died under his own conceit because he was afraid and tried to eat all the best things in it alone, not only putting his life in it, but also wasting so many good things in vain.

As for the fifth, even the second didn't come out alive, and it seemed normal to die in the secret realm.

After the middle-aged elder collected and counted the spiritual grass harvests that everyone had brought back to the secret realm, his face became even more difficult to look at, and at the same time, he was even more dissatisfied and blamed for the second child.

This time the secret realm was opened, and the harvest of the entire Tang family could be said to be the worst in the previous realm, not only because the number of spirit grasses brought out was the least, but also because most of the quality was relatively ordinary and ordinary.

Don't say that the top genius treasures, even the more precious flowers and plants are very few, and sure enough, the good things have been blinded by the greedy and conceited second child.

The middle-aged elder was very angry, but even if he wanted to go in and find the second child's full storage bag, it was impossible, and if he wanted to enter the secret realm again, he would have to wait another hundred years.

And a hundred years later, even if the things in the second storage bag are still there, who can guarantee that a small storage bag can be found in such a big secret realm?

What's more, the key is how can the Tang family spend this hundred years?

The spirit grass elixir picked this time was simply not enough to support the cultivation needs of the Tang family's children for a hundred years, and the impact of the shortage of resources was far more than just what was seen on the surface.

Zhang Yiyi was very inconspicuous in the crowd and did not attract anyone's attention, but Lu Qiao, who had been standing alone in another place, looked at her a few more times.

That seemingly unintentional, but not really casual gaze is obviously a little probing inside.

Zhang Yiyi glanced back silently, and then withdrew his gaze and ignored it, standing there and continuing to maintain his sense of existence that was ignored.

The storage bag she handed over just now was some of the easiest spirit grasses to pick, and it was almost enough to make a difference, and the extra little bit was not eye-catching.

According to the rules of the Tang family, although the elixir they picked only needs to pay for the full amount of the task, and the rest of the excess will be attributed to the individual, but of course, such a distribution must be carried out uniformly after returning to the Tang family, and if necessary, those extra part of the family will have an absolute right of first refusal.

And the Tang family is not afraid that these children will hide their harvest and hide their secrets, they have a special search magic weapon, and when the magic weapon is put in front of you, it is a secret elixir and spiritual herb that can be collected, as long as it comes out of this secret realm, it can automatically call the police.

When it was Zhang Yiyi's turn to inspect the magic weapon, Tang Zirong's face remained unchanged, but his heart couldn't help but be raised.

Although Zhang Yiyi had already said that there was no need to worry, after all, most of the good things in the secret realm were hidden on Zhang Yiyi's body at this time, and if they were detected by the magic weapon, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, Tang Zirong's fear did not last long, and after a while, the magic weapon left Zhang Yiyi, and there was no abnormality.

Until this meeting, Tang Zirong understood more that Zhang Yiyi must have an extremely high-level storage space, and he was more and more glad that his decision was not wrong.

After everything was handed in and inspected, the middle-aged elder did not stay here for a long time, and quickly took out the flying boat and returned to the Tang family with everyone.

No matter how unsatisfactory the opening of the secret realm was this time, and how unsatisfactory the result was, in short, he still had to take a little bit of things and the rest of the people back to the Tang family to make a difference.

When the group finally returned to the Tang family, the middle-aged elder was about to go directly to meet the head of the family, but suddenly someone whispered.

"What's wrong?"

The middle-aged elder glanced at the people who had just gotten off the flying boat and had not had time to disperse, looking a little impatient.

"Back to Elder, it seems, as if there is one person missing. ”

The light man hurriedly replied, as if he felt a little strange, so he was a little unsure.

The middle-aged elder was stunned, his gaze swept over everyone, and his face changed again.

Where it seems to be, it is clear that there is one person missing!

There were obviously twenty people who came out of the secret realm alive, but at this time, in addition to the people who went to pick up people, there were only nineteen of the twenty people who came out of the secret realm at some point.

Who was the missing one, when was it less, and why had he not even noticed it until now?

"It's really one person missing, and the newly recruited female guest secretary is missing!"

Someone confirmed it at the moment, and his tone was obviously surprised: "Where did the person go, I remember seeing her when I got on the flying boat." ”

Many people don't have much impression of the female guest who always likes to be alone and has no sense of existence replaced by Zhang Yiyi, but when this is mentioned alone, they immediately think of it.

Don't say it's them, even Tang Zirong really doesn't know when Zhang Yiyi quietly disappeared from under the noses of so many of them.

But Zhang Yiyi's disappearance is the best news for him, of course, for the Tang family, it is a different matter.

For a time, although Zhang Yiyi's disappearance was ordered to be kept secret and not allowed to be revealed, all kinds of rumors inevitably circulated.

Some people say that the female guest who suddenly disappeared in the middle of the road is likely to be a spy sent to the Tang family by another family, specifically for those precious treasures in the secret realm.

Some people say that even if the female guest is not a spy, she must have obtained some great treasure in the secret realm, so she secretly ran away with the treasure.

Some people also said that the female guest had done something bad in the secret realm nine times out of ten, and she was afraid that she would be found out and investigated by the Tang family, so she ran away as a thief.

There are even conspiracy theories that the deaths of the second young master and the fifth young master are probably related to the missing female guest......

In short, the eyes of the vast majority of onlookers are actually really bright, at least this truth has been touched by a lot of piecing together and making up nonsense.

It can be said that Zhang Yiyi's back is not too wronged.

It's a pity that no matter how much they guessed the truth, the Tang family made a mistake on this disappearance, knowing that it was a pit, but there was no way to find out anything.

By the last half a year, they didn't even know Zhang Yiyi's true identity, let alone find someone and find out the truth about the so-called disappearance.

The Tang family failed in the secret realm this time, and many people broke up without getting anything, and only the clues of the seemingly abnormal missing female guest Qing inevitably became a dead pit, and finally had to be resolved.

Zhang Yiyi naturally didn't pay attention to all this, where was the rise and fall of the Tang family as important as her cultivation.

Since she successfully escaped from the Tang family's secret realm half a year ago, she didn't care about anything, and directly found a safe place to start retreat.

In the past half a year, she not only used the last two required spirit flowers and spirit herbs obtained in the secret realm to gather all the medicinal bath materials of the fifth order of impact quenching, and successfully broke through the fourth order to advance to the fifth order of meat training, but also refined half of the drop of ancient god's blood in her body.

After absorbing a lot of the blood of the ancient gods again, her cultivation also increased extremely fast, and the spiritual power in her body accumulated and expanded by half.

Although she was still suppressing her cultivation, she still didn't let herself break through to the late stage of foundation building so quickly, but she also knew in her heart that she couldn't suppress it for too long.

She found that with the improvement of cultivation, her body's dependence on the spiritual root became weaker and weaker, but the advantage of the innate spirit body was more obvious, and the cultivation speed became faster and faster, even if she forcibly suppressed the cultivation again and again, her cultivation speed was still not worse than those heavenly spirit roots.

It's no wonder that Shizun has repeatedly asked her not to rush to improve her cultivation realm, and now it seems that it is not only their habitual preference for accumulating to the extreme first and then soaring to the sky, but more importantly, if she does not consciously control it, the advantages of the innate spirit body are really too easy to doubt.

In addition to cultivation, Zhang Yiyi has also really analyzed all the content of "The Gate of Time and Space" in the past six months, but this exercise is really too complex and profound, and it is not an overnight skill to practice.

She had been happy for a long time, but she was not in a hurry to start practicing immediately according to the mantra method above.

Putting away the door of time and space that had been sorted out with great difficulty, Zhang Yiyi got up and left this hidden place that had been in retreat for half a year.

It's time to go out and walk around, after all, the time agreed with Tang Zirong is approaching, and she still has to run to finish some things in the Tang family.
