Yesterday's dinner, although it was dull and tasteless, Ding Baozhen had a very happy conversation with Lu Mengxi, the leader of the caravan, to exaggerate, it was the first time he had met his bosom friend in decades.

"It's better to be the head of the chicken, not to be the queen of the cow, not to mention that your small sect is nothing. ”

He kept chewing on Lu Daoyou's earnest exhortation in his heart, hesitated for a moment again, and saw that the rear of the caravan had disappeared into the sky, and his heart was a little empty.

Although it is only a small chamber of commerce sandwiched between the sects, the identity of the vice president, plus the annual dividend of five percent, is really exciting, Ding Baozhen put away the light silk in his hand, on which there is a commitment and contact information written by Lu Mengxi, the president of the "Songxin Chamber of Commerce", and this invitation is valid for one year.

Opportunities are hard to come by.

He didn't know why these four words suddenly appeared in his heart, but he saw several monks from the sect who had been following him and were responsible for opening up the trade routes here flew from a distance.

"Deacon Ding, how do you think this matter should be decided?"

"Deacon Ding, the owner of the ten cottages that need to be demolished does not agree to be demolished, do you think we want to take a detour, or ask for instructions from the top of the house? The master took out the handwritten letter given to the Tian Mansion by the head of the seventh generation, and wanted the lion to ask for compensation for fifteen second-order spirit stones, but I think it looks like a forgery. ”

"Deacon Ding, the ditch that drained last night was frozen again, do you see if you can apply for ten fiery charms to completely empty those few waterholes?"

"Deacon Ding,......"

Ding Baozhen only felt that his head was a little big, and there seemed to be countless gadflies around him, dancing around him, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, but he couldn't get angry with these juniors, because they were all descendants of several big families and colleagues who had a close relationship with him, so he could only cough lightly and motioned for everyone to come one by one.

"It's all the same trivial, but the benefits are completely unequal. Why should Ding Daoyou embarrass himself?"

Another sentence sounded in his heart, and he couldn't disperse for a long time, he couldn't help but turn his head to stare at the unfinished official road that was winding forward, and then turned to look at a few juniors who didn't know why, and looked ignorant.

Why don't I go alone, no, no, it's better to take my wife and a few children, he said to himself. It's just that after staying in this shallow mountain sect for a long time, you can't just leave, you have to make this official matter a lot.

............

Red Dragon Gate, deep in the north foot of the "Jade Meng's Demon Dragon Ridge".

Another ghost general fell beside Liu Canran, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, turned around and flew forward, bypassing a few ordinary ghost creatures that followed him like a shadow, and watched the situation in front of him.

There are also two ghost generals, as well as green-skinned ghost generals, and ordinary ghost things, there are still thirty or forty of them. This is a good thing, but there are also signs of emptiness in one's spiritual power.

was thinking about how to save spiritual power and end the situation in front of him, but suddenly realized that in the depths of the deep cave, bursts of tidal turbulence rushed out, as if there was an inexplicable creature awakening, more like the summoning of some strange thing, the ghost thing on his side suddenly became manic, and the ghost thing that had fallen to the ground, and more than a dozen of them reunited and woke up, regardless of it, and rushed towards Liu Cangran.

What's going on in the depths of this hellish cave?

Liu Cangran felt the pressure at the time, and met the head-on blow of the green-skinned ghost general, but suddenly found that the strength of this fang was even better, the tiger's mouth was in severe pain, and he retreated again and again, and the ghost thing behind him rushed forward, he hurriedly repeated the old trick again, while splashing the golden light charm, while swimming, trying to escape out of the circle, but the speed of the ghost thing was much faster, and for a while he was trapped in the center, unable to leave quickly.

Won't die here, will you?

Feeling the rapid dissipation of the spiritual power in his body, Liu Cangran hurriedly swallowed two pills while he took advantage of the gap, the magic sword in his hand was as fast as lightning, and the flames on his body were extended, he spit out the five-character mantra lightly, and slashed his side, and suddenly a sword light quickly extended, turning into a nine-foot-high, two-foot-wide green light barrier, blocking the ghosts rushing in front of him.

Syllable!

A ghost general slammed head-on into the green light barrier, the barrier only shook a little, not broken, Liu Canran was slightly fixed in his heart, and his backhand was another split, and another barrier appeared on the spot, protecting his left side, although this barrier is very strong, but it also means that he can only fight the enemy in this square inch.

I only hope that the tidal turbulence just now will not happen again, but I was thinking about it, but I felt another more urgent turbulence, rushing like a tide.

The ghost thing, which was not strong and fierce in its original strength, suddenly seemed to be blessed by divine power, hitting the green light barrier condensed by Liu Canran, trembling, Liu Canran had to continuously bless the strength, and condensed two identical barriers again in the left near, and the space that was not spacious to move was suddenly three points smaller.

At this time, suddenly from the deep passage, jumped out of a whole body red, fangs of the ghost general, a rough black halberd in his hand, straight towards Liu Canran sprinted, Liu Canran did not dare to slack off, exhibited a silver-white secret box, not much spiritual power in the body, all poured into the secret box, the secret box unfolded a narrow gap, seeing this change, Liu Cangran struggled to fly, the secret box to the red ghost general, only to see the secret box fly head-on to the ghost general, the narrow gap suddenly opened, stretched out a silver chain intertwined into the iron hand, five fingers quickly stretched, a grasp of the nine-foot ghost general, and then, and countless silver powders were sprinkled from the secret box, covering the body of the red-skinned ghost general.

Coagulate!

Liu Cangran quietly recited the mantra, and the ghost general, who seemed to be covered with silver powder, suddenly stagnated, like an iron tool eroded by time, and could no longer move freely, and then shattered like a clay puppet. However, Liu Canran also exhausted the last of his spiritual power, and slowly recovered only with the power of the elixir, and relied on the protection of the green light barrier to survive and fight with the remaining ghosts.

Half a step back, he leaned against the cold stone wall, exhaled a breath of turbidity, collected the secret box, and only relied on the strength of his body to move against the enemy, not daring to waste a trace of spiritual power easily.

However, things always go not as planned.

At the moment when the red-skinned ghost collapsed its body, the green-skinned ghost general who was swimming nearby rushed to one of the fragments with an arrow step, picked up the stiff flesh and blood, and swallowed it in one gulp, and then, the momentum on its body increased sharply, and blood-red marks suddenly appeared on the cyan skin, followed by an excited roar, and the black iron short rod in its hand came out of its hand and threw it straight at Liu Cangran.

Bang!

The short stick containing power hit the green light barrier, and the latter suddenly showed visible spider web cracks, and the ghosts that were close to it took advantage of this to increase the intensity of the impact, Liu Cangran had no spiritual power to replenish, so he had to jump up and stab straight away, turning several ordinary ghost things that approached into scattered black mist, but the green-skinned ghost general took the opportunity to rush to the front, relying only on the strength of his body, the damaged green light barrier was completely destroyed.

Lost a barrier, Liu Canran can no longer stick to the enemy, the green-skinned ghost general who devoured the red-skinned essence is far stronger than before, Liu Canran had to break it with skill, and while swimming, several ghosts tried to rush into his body by taking advantage of the gap, although he failed to do so, but it made him move a lot sluggishly, and he was continuously restrained for a while.

If it continues like this, I am afraid that there is a risk of falling here, and Liu Cangran suddenly retreated. Distracted and looking back at the passage when he came, in the overflowing ghost aura, there were only a lot more ghosts, and in the deeper cave, several fierce breaths were echoing each other, although they did not rush out, but they rushed deeper, and they would surely provoke more red-skinned ghost-like existences.

A dilemma for a while.

At this time, he suddenly heard the faint explosion of the talisman in the passage, so he took the opportunity to throw out a light curtain talisman, and used up the way to recover a trace of spiritual power, and the light immediately covered all corners of the surrounding area, and the figure of the dense ghost creature stagnated slightly, but that's all, after all, this light has no killing ability to the ghost thing, and it will attract the attention of the ghost thing that hovers near the left, and then be attracted here, but Liu Canran has to do this, because only in this way will it attract the attention of the passing monks.

barely fought with the ghosts around him for half a stick of incense, but saw two figures approaching, it was Zuo Zicicada and the half-demon surnamed Song with a strange breath.

"Liu Daoyou, I'm here to help you!"

Seeing that the light of the light curtain talisman was about to dissipate, Zuo Zician casually added one, and this light immediately dispelled a trace of doubt rising in Liu Canran's heart, said "Thank you", reluctantly pulled out a trace of spiritual power from the meridians, ignited a golden light talisman, and threw it towards the nearest ghost.

He didn't want Zuo Zician to look down on him, and he was also afraid that these two comers would have strange thoughts.

"You go and lure that ghost away, Liu Daoyou has been fighting for a long time and needs to rest for a while. ”

This...... Liu Cangran didn't expect Zuo Zician to see through his weakness at a glance, his face turned red, and he avoided the big hand of a ghost general in his move, and was about to jump out of the circle, but he saw a cloud of black gas rising from the half-demon hand, rotating rapidly like a whirlpool, generating a small tornado, and the black tornado continued to absorb the surrounding ghost energy, and even ghosts

The ghost qi on the body was also swaying, and several ghost things that had regathered were directly sucked into the whirlpool, making it grow stronger, and this kind of change suddenly aroused the hostility of several ghost generals, and they gave up Liu Cangran one after another, and went straight to the half-demon surnamed Song.

It seemed that there was a special suppression of ghosts, and Liu Cangran, who was hiding behind the only remaining green light barrier, couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Master often says "don't fight without preparation", and it is true, but it is not wrong to pit Feng Jiming, looking forward and backward, it is indeed harmful, otherwise when Feng Jiming just escaped, if he struggled to escape, there must be a way to survive, and he would not end up in this situation, if he didn't happen to meet these two people, after a while, I am afraid that he would have become a dry bone here.

Zuo Zicicada then made a move, several magic weapons flew in his hand, all of which had the effect of restraining ghosts, after half a burnt incense, there was only a wreckage left in the field, although more than half of these ghosts were destroyed by Liu Canran, but at this moment, he was embarrassed to say the idea of sharing half of the profits, after all, if it weren't for these two people to send charcoal in the snow, he would ...... But seeing Zuo Zician wave of his right hand, the black beads and several pale phalanges in the field were all taken in his hands, and he paced forward, dividing half of them, even containing a scarlet phalange, and spread them in front of Liu Canran.

"Liu Daoyou, you deserve most of these gains. ”

"This ......" Liu Canran's heart was hot, and he couldn't help but want to stretch his hand over, but he endured it, "Where, Zuo Daoyou is polite, if it weren't for your help, Liu would have fallen here a long time ago." These gains were given to Zuo Daoyou as a thank you, which was not a tribute. ”

Liu Daoyou was polite. Zuo Zician didn't go to tear up with Liu Cangran, and took a small half of what he deserved, "I don't know if Liu Daoyou is fighting with ghosts here, but what is abnormal to find?"

Abnormal?

Of course there are abnormalities, Feng Jiming rushed in, so I don't know why there are more strange tides here, and the ghosts are much stronger, Liu Cangran subconsciously wants to start from the beginning, but finds that it is better to say less, after all, Feng Jiming's joining, there are also his own reasons, so he concealed it: "There seems to be something happening in the depths of the ghost cave, so that the ghosts have become a lot stronger." ”

In this way, we can only know by going deeper. Zuo Zicicada pondered for a moment, felt the turbulent current gushing out from the depths of the cave, took three steps forward, and turned to look at Liu Cangran, "Can Liu Daoyou mind walking along?"

I want to leave...... Liu Qiran subconsciously responded in his heart, but suddenly remembered that Qiu Daocheng should also be on the way to come, and at this moment, he would most likely have to deal with the depletion of spiritual power.

"Boss Zuo, dare to ask your sect if you are recruiting monks, since Liu got out of the Yufeng Sect, he has been like duckweed and has not yet had a place to settle down, I don't know if I can join your sect?"

"Oh?" Zuo Zician suddenly felt happy in his heart, but his face became solemn, he naturally didn't want to miss such a good opportunity to recruit high-level monks, "If Liu Daoyou has this intention, Zuo Mou should greet him." He stepped forward, "Why don't you enter my Huanglong faction first and serve as the elder of Keqing, Brother Cangran, what do you think?"

"Self-serving. The stone hanging in Liu Canran's heart finally landed, and he suddenly realized that no matter how he escaped, he was just looking for a place to settle down after all, the Huanglong faction was one of the members of the Jincheng League, although there was no high-level spiritual land, but the second order was there, and only needed to bless the spirit gathering array, which could fully meet the needs of his own cultivation, and more importantly, there were not many ground-level monks in the Huanglong faction, and among the information he originally had, there was only one person in charge, Zuo Zicida, although there was another person in front of him, but this exuded a strange atmosphere, a half-demon who spoke little, obviously could only be used as a thug, as for the general affairs in the door, it must not be managed, and he defected to the Huanglong faction, and most of them would be reused。

On the other hand, defecting to Huanglongmen means that he can borrow the power of Zuo Zicicada and leave here safely. He thought so, but he heard Zuo Zicicada say:

"Now that something has changed here, I'm afraid we don't have much time left. Elder Liu, we need to hurry up, along the way, you don't need to make a move, it is important to recover your spiritual power first. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Liu Cangran took out two pills, since he had joined the Huanglong Sect, presumably Zuo Zician would not harm him, so he secretly took the Danqing talisman in his sleeve robe, which was the last hole card he had prepared.

Tianyin Temple, see Naruto City.

Ye Mo and the others had just landed from the harbor, and when they boarded, they found that the atmosphere here was very different from the past.
