"Whoop, whoa, whoa......" A heavy gasp came from the dense wild forest, Ge Xu sat on the ground, opened the water bag and gulped a few mouthfuls of water.

This is already the seventh day of entering the wild forest, in the evening, along the way, Ling Yun carried Long Xuan, Chen Li brothers carried Chen Fan on the stretcher, Zhang Daoyi carried Ling'er, and everyone traveled all the way, this is bitter without any cultivation, and his physical strength is not as good as Ling Yun's freak Ge Xu, if it weren't for Zhang Daoyi throwing him a pill to supplement his physical strength when he entered the forest, Ge Xu would have been unable to support it.

The pill had been eaten, and at this moment, Ge Xu was unkempt, staring at his red eyes, looking ahead blankly.

Zhang Dao, who was leading the way in front, turned his head and saw Ge Xu's appearance, and hurriedly ordered everyone to stop.

After putting down Ling'er, Zhang Daoyi walked behind Ge Xu, pressed down Ge Xu's vest with one palm, and a pure spiritual power rushed into Ge Xu's body along Zhang Daoyi's palm and swam around a few times, Ge Xu slowly recovered a little brightness.

"Can you still hold on?" Zhang Daoyi asked.

Ge Xu pursed his lips and nodded with a determined look.

Zhang Daoyi looked at the brothers Ling Yun and Chen Li, who were also a little tired, and after getting everyone's affirmation, Zhang Daoyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "We can slow down a little, and wait for half a day after dawn, and we will have a place to rest for a while." ”

Ge Xu closed his eyes, lay on the ground indiscriminately, and took the time to rest, Ling'er ran to Ling Yun's side, took out a handkerchief from his arms, carefully wiped the sweat beads on Ling Yun's forehead, and talked to Ling Yun, after all, he was a child, the dazed and scared at the beginning was no longer there, anyway, his grandfather and two brothers were still around, and Ling'er let go of the worries in his heart.

After the Chen Li brothers put the Liangjiang stretcher away, they took out a few pieces of bread from the baggage and distributed them to everyone, and then held a sword to clear out the surrounding area out of an open space, gathered some dead branches and fallen leaves, and piled them in the middle of everyone.

Zhang Dao lit the fire with a finger, and said to everyone with a smile: "Sleep, the old man just keeps vigil!"

Hearing Zhang Daoyi's command, Ling'er leaned on Lingyun and fell asleep, and the two brothers Chen Li and Chen Guang were also a little tired, so they sat down cross-legged and closed their eyes to recuperate.

There was no word for a night, except for a few blind beasts attracted by the firelight who were pointed to death by Zhang Daoyi, who was sitting cross-legged, nothing happened.

As soon as it was dawn, Zhang Daoyi picked up Ling'er on his back, and once again beckoned everyone to get up and lead the way to the depths of the forest......

Everyone followed Zhang Daoyi and walked forward for about four or five hours, and suddenly saw Zhang Daoyi, who was walking in front of him and leading the way, suddenly stopped.

After all, this is in the barren forest, Ge Xu and the others looked at Zhang Daoyi who stopped with some surprise, and the two Chen Li brothers put down the stretcher, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with their right hand and looking around vigilantly.

Zhang Daoyi ignored the vigilant people, only to see his hand raised, pinched his fingers and calculated for a moment, and then a crooked neck tree next to him made a few seals, and then waved to the people behind him: "Don't be strange after that, just follow the good old man." ”

Just when everyone was wondering, Zhang Daoyi took a step forward towards the crooked neck tree, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes together with Ling'er behind him.

Ling Yun, who had experience in knowing the sea, picked up Long Xuan on his back, walked to the crooked neck tree without hesitation, leaned his body against the tree, and the figure disappeared.

Ge Xu and Chen Li looked left and right, and the two brothers carried the stretcher and rushed to the crooked neck tree with their eyes with Ge Xu.

Ge Xu and Chen Li's eyes were dark at first, and then they lit up, Zhang Daoyi and Ling Yun, who had come in earlier, were standing next to the three of them, and the three of them looked around in surprise, only to see that they were still standing next to the crooked neck tree.

"It's safe for the time being!" Zhang Daoyi smiled: "This is a space that the old man has spent a lot of effort to fold, and there are some restrictions behind it, you follow the old man's pace, don't take a wrong step." ”

After speaking, Zhang Daoyi walked forward, only this time Zhang Daoyi did not walk straight forward, but walked forward a few steps forward and suddenly took a few steps to the left, or took a few steps to the right and then suddenly took a few steps back, just turned left and right, Zhang Daoyi advanced more than ten meters, and suddenly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes again.

Ge Xu was dazzled, and he couldn't remember how Zhang Daoyi walked over, Chen Li brothers shook their heads helplessly, and after putting down the stretcher, Chen Li picked up Chen Zhuan, and Chen Guang carried Ge Xu on his back, and the two stood in place for a long time, stunned and did not take a step forward.

In Ling Yun's memory, it was surprisingly good since the awakening of the bloodline, all of Zhang Daoyi's steps were vivid in Ling Yun's mind, so he pulled Chen Li forward with Long Xuan on his back, Chen Li pulled Chen Guang up again, and followed Ling Yun through this strange distance.

Just where Zhang Daoyi disappeared, Ling Yun had just disappeared, and Chen Guang, who couldn't help but be curious, quietly took a step towards the wrong direction, and instantly a thunderbolt appeared, straight towards Chen Guang and slashed down, Chen Guang and Ge Xu on his back were half dead, fortunately, Chen Li reacted quickly, pulled Chen Guang back, and several people disappeared together in this strange space, the thunder light could only helplessly split on the ground, blasting the earth out of a deep scorched hole.

Everyone's eyes were dark again, and when the light reappeared in their eyes, what appeared in front of them was a beautiful scenery that everyone had never seen, everyone stood on a grass, there was a small lake with ripples in the middle of the grass reflecting this beautiful light in the sun, there was an all-wood hut by the lake, at this time Zhang Daoyi was standing on the side and looking at everyone with a smile, Ling'er had been put down by Zhang Daoyi, and was running happily towards the small lake with Lanyue Cat.

Looking back, I saw that everyone was still in the wild forest, more than ten meters away, the crooked neck tree was still standing there, and Ge Xu, who was still a little frightened by the thunder that had just chopped down, was full of surprise in his eyes, and quickly jumped off Chen Guang's back, carefully touched the grass under his feet, and muttered: "Is this true?"

"Of course it's true, fortunately, the old man was afraid that the leakage of his breath would attract the strong people of Xia Guo, so he prepared this place in advance, maybe this time I will not be able to escape death...... We've all had to hide here for a while, and if I'm not mistaken, my senior brother should have figured out that we were in trouble, and the Tian Yuan Sect should have already arranged for people to come and meet us. Zhang Daoyi replied, then turned his head to Chen Guang and scolded with a smile: "If you don't kill you, it's your fate, see if you dare to settle down indiscriminately!"

"Come into the house and rest, and after I have rescued those two wounded patients, it's time to teach you something. Zhang Daoyi said as he led everyone towards the hut......

In Songlin City, the city lord who was usually high on weekdays was kneeling down in the hall of the city lord's mansion trembling all over at this time, the door of the hall was closed, and the hall was dim.

A secret order from the emperor was only in the hands of the city lord, and the cold sweat on his forehead fully showed his uneasiness at the moment.

"Hmph, Zhu Youcai, you are a waste, if it weren't for the fact that you are my nephew, and your cultivation was actually mixed with you to the blood coagulation stage, I would have beheaded you directly now. In front of City Lord Zhu, there was a man in black sitting on the seat of the City Lord who originally belonged to him, and a diagonal scar almost split the man's face in half, and a cold voice came out of the man's mouth.

"Uncle...... This ......"

"Call me sir!"

City Lord Zhu let out an even more violent tremble, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, this is not a matter of the lower officials!"

The palm of his hand slapped heavily on the armrest of the city lord's chair, and the man in black drank: "You didn't even notice that the breath of the immortal cultivator appeared near your Songlin City, and you still said that it was none of your business?"

"Nephew...... The cultivation of the lower officials is lowly, and those immortal cultivators who dare to enter the interior of Great Xia are not as superb as the lower officials, and it is really difficult for the lower officials to find out!"

"Even if you are polite, what is Your Majesty asking you to take care of this Songlin City for? is it to restrict the people of the other three ancient blood families from benefiting from the city, can you do it?"

"This, the other three deputy city lords colluded, and the lower officials were also lonely, some time ago, the worshippers in the lower officials' mansions all died inexplicably, maybe it was instigated by the other three deputy city lords. Under the sharp gaze of the man in black, City Lord Zhu pressed his head to the ground, and he didn't dare to raise a bit: "Even if I want to restrict, it's hard to start." ”

"You bastard!" the man in black was furious, raised his hand and was about to hit it hard, thought about it and put his hand down and said, "Your worship is dead?

"Just ten days ago, Qiu Hong in the Xiaguan Mansion died inexplicably in his room, there was no wound on the corpse, and there was no trace of invasion by others, the Xiaguan closed Songlin City, and there was no clue for a few days, for fear that the tax would be affected, so he had to put this matter aside, and after opening the city gate, someone would secretly investigate......" Zhu City Lord raised his head and said.

"Smack!" A slap was slammed on the face of the city lord of Zhu, and the chair under the black-clothed man was shattered by it, and he scolded: "You are really an idiot, what kind of bloodline does my Great Xia bloodline cultivator have that can silently kill people? Isn't this a sign of the appearance of an immortal cultivator? You are really angry with me!"

The man in black was still angry, and when he came forward, he kicked the city lord Zhu a few times, and the city lord Zhu curled up in pain, coupled with the red city lord's robe, it was really like a cooked prawn.

"Knock knock. There was a knock on the door, and the man in black put his feet down, found a random chair to sit down, and then said, "Come in!"

A masked man dressed in black with a cyan feather pinned to his chest pushed open the door and strode into the hall, the sunlight shining into the hall, making the room less dim.

Without even glancing at the city lord Zhu who fell to the ground, the masked man walked straight to the man in black and knelt down on one knee, and reported to him: "Chief, half a quarter of an hour ago, a group of 100 Kyoto Southern Guard cavalry arrived at Songlin City, and began to set up a camp outside the north gate of Songlin City, apparently preparing to settle down. ”

"Hehe, it seems that there are people in the Imperial City who have crooked thoughts! Keep an eye on those cavalry and see what they are doing here!" the man in black thought for a moment and said to the masked man.

"Yes!" the masked man agreed, got up and walked outside, to the door, where the man closed the door again, and the room became dark again.

"Get up, give me all the money you are greedy for, and hand it over to me honestly, stay honestly for a few days, don't make mistakes again, maybe I can save your life!" The man in black looked at City Lord Zhu, who was still lying on the ground, rubbed his eyebrows and said.
