I don't know how long I climbed down, but just when the stone was about to be exhausted, my feet finally stepped on the solid ground.

The stone sat down on the ground, wiped the sweat from his face, let out a sigh of relief, and looked around, surrounded by high mountains, lush greenery, dense forests, and the air was filled with the smell of fresh grass and trees, except for a few strange bird calls.

The stone rose from the ground and followed a path covered with leaves into a wooded field.

There was silence in the dark woods, the fallen leaves under his feet made a wet sound, the stone watched the surrounding movements vigilantly as he walked, he felt as if a pair of eyes had been following him, trembling and walking for about half a mile, the stone suddenly stepped on the air, fell into a deep pit, the blades of grass and branches split their heads and buried their faces, the stone struggled a little, only then shook off the blades of grass, and got out of his body, but before he could stand firmly, he had already been hit on his back and fainted to the ground.

Thunder Mountain, Ten Thousand Poison Palace.

After the sudden death of the great wizard Miao Yao, the Leishan Ten Thousand Poison Palace, where Miao Jiang's main altar is located, fell into a brief chaos, but under the effective disposal of Miao Yao's eldest disciple Miao Yao, order was quickly restored.

Ten Thousand Poison Palace is famous for its Gu poison witchcraft, and it is famous in the evil sect, and even the famous door of the righteous path does not dare to underestimate it, Miao Jiang Witch Gate has gone through hundreds of years, Gu magic is complicated and strange, and talents have come out in large numbers, and dozens of generations of great wizards have worked hard in Miao Jiang to have today. It has been fifty-three generations to Miao Yao, Miao He was born in Miao Jiang, grew up drinking Gu water since he was a child, and knows the customs and customs of Miao Jiang, thaumaturgy and evil methods, and has a calm personality, and he is not smiling, Miao He ascended to the position of the great wizard at the age of thirty, took charge of the witch gate, and was determined to reform, removed the traditional bad habits and evil laws of Miao Jiang, introduced the benevolence and righteousness of Han Confucianism, and took the initiative to improve the tension between the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism, and established the status of the rivers and lakes of the witch gate. Jiangxi and other places set up 26 sub-altars, opened altars to accept disciples, gathered believers, and intended to magnify Miaojiang witchcraft.

Unexpectedly, Miao Yao's century-old career did not come to fruition, but he returned to the yin with his life, leaving behind the twenty-seven altars of Wumen and countless believers.

The dragons have no leader, and it is difficult to achieve great things.

According to the tradition of the Miao Jiang Witch Sect, the disciples of the Miao Worm faction notified the altar owners of the twenty-six altars, and a month later, the Miao Jiang Conference was held in Leishan, and the altar owners jointly elected the Great Wizard, and the disciples of any branch of the altar could be elected as the Great Wizard as long as they were unanimously elected by all the altar owners.

The forces of the 26 altars are complicated, there are those who loyally support the Miao Worm of the General Altar, and there are also those who hold the unity alliance with selfish intentions, and more are watching the fire from the other side, wanting to reap the benefits of the fishermen.

Miao Worm and the Twelve Protectors of the General Altar led the disciples to wear linen and filial piety, kept vigil for the master for seven days, and buried the coffin in the forbidden place of Lei Mountain.

"Knock, knock" There were two knocks on the door, and then a hoarse voice outside the door: "Senior nephew, can you be in the room?"

Miao Yu heard that it was the Great Dharma Protector Miao Yan, so he got up and opened the door, and said, "Uncle Shi, are you looking for me?"

The two entered the room and sat down, Miao Yi poured a cup of tea and sent it to his uncle, but Miao Yan did not mean to drink tea, he was wearing a coarse black cloth, wrapped in black cloth on his head, and pinned a Miao knife around his waist, embroidered with the unique ghost pattern of the Miao family on the handle, although his face was full of wrinkles and his short beard was dyed with frost, but there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows.

Miao Yu was dressed in civilian clothes, her hair was scattered, her eyes were scattered, and she seemed to be tired.

"Miao Worm nephew, you were brought up by your senior brother, he died suddenly, you are sad in your heart, Uncle Shi naturally understands, but now that the Miao Jiang Conference is about to be held, the disciples of all altars are ready to move, you should understand the stakes, but you can't retreat at this time." Miao Yan said straight to the point.

A trace of panic flashed across Miao Yu's face, and he turned to say: "What Uncle Shi taught me is that my nephew knows that I am wrong, thank you Uncle for my teaching." ”

Miao Yan continued: "It's good that you understand, I came to you today, and there is one more thing. As he spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve, put it on the table, and pushed it to Miao Worm, who hurriedly picked it up, opened the letter and read it, thought for a while, and said: "This White Lotus Sect's Sanyang Ghost King never appears in the rivers and lakes easily, how could he intentionally come to participate in the Miao Jiang Conference, could this news be fake?"

Miao Yan shook his head, stared at Miao Worm with both eyes, and said: "The source of the news is very reliable, this time the White Lotus Sect learned that the senior brother immortal died, and Miao Jiang had no leader for a while, so he sent spies to investigate everywhere, and the Sanyang Ghost King even intended to come to the Miao Jiang Conference to fish in troubled waters, which means that this time we must take strict precautions, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"I, Miao Jiang, come and the White Lotus Sect don't interfere with the river water, and the Sanyang Ghost King is just a defeated general under the master, is it ——? he came this time" Miao Yu didn't dare to say any more.

"Yes, nephew, the Sanyang Ghost King is scheming, this Miao Jiang Conference not only wants to elect a new great wizard, but also the Thirty-six Blood Witch Sacrifice Ceremony, this is a grand event once in fifty years in Miao Jiang, the blood soul water of the Thirty-six Blood Witch can increase for hundreds of years, and the people in the rivers and lakes have heard the wind and want to get involved, he is ambitious, how can he miss this opportunity?" Miao Yan said angrily, the wrinkles on his face twisted into a ball.

Miao Yu's hand holding the letter couldn't help but tremble, he couldn't control his body, and his body trembled a little.

Longhu Mountain, Lingyun View.

On the side hall, Zhang Zhenren sat upright, like a clay statue, listening to the Yuandong Zhenren under the stairs to report to him about the big and small things in the view, the flow of accounts, and waited for the Yuandong Zhenren to finish the long one-lone finish, and then said lightly: "Apprentice, you can dispose of it yourself, and there is no opinion for the teacher." ”

Yuan Dong Zhenren looked up at the master's somewhat unfamiliar face, and thought, the master has become less and less concerned about the trivial matters in the view recently, presumably because of the progress in cultivation, and he will break off the world in the near future, but the master was not injured lightly last time, has he not fully recovered? After thinking about it, he said cautiously: "Master, has your body recovered recently?"

"Thank you for your concern, it's no longer a big problem to be a teacher. "Zhang Zhenren lied, and the injuries in his body have not healed to this day.

Yuan Dong Zhenren was relieved at this time, and replied: "Master, the disciple met Aunt Canglang yesterday, and she asked me to inform you, saying that there is something important to discuss. ”

"Didn't you say that? As a teacher, she will not see anyone, and if she has any problems, she can consult with you. Zhang Zhenren said impatiently.

"That's what the apprentice said, but she said that this matter was about Miao Jiang witchcraft, so-" Yuan Dong Zhenren wanted to speak and stopped.

When Zhang Zhenren heard this, he was secretly suspicious in his heart, and he didn't know what news Mrs. Canglang had gotten, so he changed his words and said: "Oh, since that's the case, you let her come to see her as a teacher!"
