After chatting for a while, Yu Qiao'er came over.

Seeing Yu Qiao'er for the first time, Yan Lin was stunned.

In Yan Lin's heart, Yu Qiao'er has always been like a peach blossom with a smile on her eyebrows, but now Yu Qiao'er who has come over has a sallow face, with a little sadness and resentment in the corners of her eyes.

Yan Lin arched his hand and said, "Mrs. Xie is fine, and I brought some gifts to Mrs. Xie on the order of the leader of the Yu Alliance." ”

Yu Qiao'er was not shy, surprised, or happy when she saw Yan Lin.

She glanced lightly at the gift held by Dai Anfeng's disciple behind Yan Lin, and her tone was cold: "I don't need it." ”

"It's a wish from the leader of the alliance, and he asked me to say hello to my wife. Yan Lin said.

"Huh. Yu Qiao'er sneered.

The two were embarrassed there, Xie Lantian gave Xie Zhizhi a look, Xie Zhizhi immediately understood, came to Yu Qiao'er's side and took her hand and said softly: "Give me some face, after all, it was sent by my father-in-law, take it." ”

Yu Qiao'er glanced at Xie Zhizhi out of the corner of her eye, her face was like frost, and she turned to leave.

Xie Zhizhi was slightly stunned, stomped his feet to vent his anger, and forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "Master Duan, Leader Yan, please follow me to the cabinet to discuss the matter of obtaining the Bodhi Sutra." ”

Yan Lin couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart when he saw Yu Qiao'er like this, but he didn't say anything and followed Xie Zhizhi into the cabinet.

Taking the "Bodhi Sutra" was originally a matter of Wanyin Temple, Dai Anfeng sent Yan Lin to help, Xie Lantian felt that since Dai Anfeng sent the juniors to help, in order not to lose Dai Anfeng, he should also send people of the same generation as Yan Lin to help, so he did not participate in the discussion.

On the desk of the cabinet is a topographic map.

The topographic map is rudimentary, with roughly marked shorelines and linden trees, but after drawing a large circle of the Misty Forest to roughly show how much it occupies, the details in the Misty Forest are blank.

Duan Hong pointed to the blank Misty Forest and wondered, "Why is the part of the Misty Forest blank?

Xie Zhezhi's face was embarrassed: "Dissatisfied with Master Duan, he sent several waves of people, but none of them survived?"

As soon as these words came out, I was sitting until I took a breath.

Lin An asked, "Why is this?"

Xie Zhizhi shook his head: "At first, I sent a wave in, but I didn't come out for several days, and then I sent another wave to look for them, but in the end, I didn't come out." Several waves in a row, but in the end, I didn't even see the corpse, and I really didn't know what was strange in it. ”

"Maybe there is a giant beast?" Duan Hong said, "Legend has it that there is a divine bird peacock guarding under the Bodhi tree, didn't you encounter a divine bird?"

"No, it won't. Xie Zhizhi said, "When the next few waves went in, we all told them not to go deeper, just go inside little by little." Myths say that the gods only guard Bodhi, but Bodhi is in the depths of the misty forest, and it is impossible for our people to go so deep. ”

"Is there something else weird in there?" Lin An listened with a creep.

"It's better to send someone to find out. Duan Hong said.

"It's better to-" Yan Lin, who had been listening and thinking on the sidelines, said, "I'll go tomorrow." Since the Misty Forest is dangerous, it would be in vain to send disciples there. ”

"Leader Yan is going?" Xie Zhizhi asked, "The Misty Forest is dangerous, we don't know anything about it, aren't you afraid of danger when you go in?"

Yan Lin said: "It's dangerous for the disciples to go, someone must go to explore the way first." ”

After thinking for a while, Duan Hong said, "Then I'll go too." ”

"Master Duan is also going?" Xie Zhizhi hesitated. All three of them went, and it didn't seem good to go by themselves. But none of the people who had been photographed before came back, and this misty forest was really weird, which made him a little scared. If he had gone, it would have been nice if all three of them had died in the end. So he said: "Then Xie will organize people outside to prepare for the triumph of the two." ”

Yan Lin didn't expect Xie Zhizhi to go, and said yes with a smile. And Duan Hong, he knew in his heart why Duan Hong wanted to go with him. It's nothing more than not trusting yourself, afraid that you will quietly snatch the "Bodhi Sutra" and leave. Duan Hong has always treated him with evil, and Yan Lin is used to it.

The next day, black clouds rolled in the distance, and the air was extremely dull, and it was unknown when the storm would come.

Before Yan Lin and Duan Hong were about to leave, Lin An also had a quarrel with Yan Lin.

Lin An said aggrievedly: "Why don't you take me?"

"The Misty Forest is dangerous, your little cultivation, it's better to rest in Canglang Pavilion. ”

"It's not as bad as you said, Leader Yan! How mysterious the Misty Forest is, take me to see it." Lin An's tone was a little coquettish, just like Yan Lin three years ago.

"You stay here and wait for me to come back, that's the order. Yan Lin didn't let him doubt it.

Lin An left in a huff.

Yan Lin and Duan Hong entered the forest.

Before they entered the forest, the fog had already enveloped the two of them, and they couldn't see anything five feet away. Under the fog, the sunlight cannot penetrate, and the light becomes gloomy, adding to the mystery. When you step into the forest, you will be surrounded by soft, damp soil and ancient trees with trunks that take three people to embrace. The ancient trees grow in strange and twisted postures, like people with grimaces.

"This forest only appeared two months ago, but the trees seem to be a hundred years old, which is really weird. Duan Hong said.

"That's right. Yan Lin said but did not stop, "And the fog here is very thick, we had better not separate too far, otherwise it will be easy to get separated." ”

Yan Lin was originally kind, but Duan Hong sneered: "What's the matter, Leader Yan is timid?"

"I'm afraid that you will die here, and from then on, the dragons of Wanyin Temple will be leaderless. ”

"Ridiculous, sounds like you still want to protect me?" Duan Hong laughed, "Are you so kind?"

Yan Lin didn't want to argue with Duan Hong at the moment, so he drew out his gurgling sword and slashed the branches that stood in front of him with a slight swing.

......

......

At the entrance to the Misty Forest, a man and a woman stop in the fog.

The woman wore a foggy blue shirt with bandages around the cuffs and ankles, and a blue whip around her waist. She said, "Hangui, if you go in and don't come out for three days, I'll go in and look for you." ”

The cold return is still the jade tree in the wind, and the heroic posture is upright. He said: "In the rain, we have sent several waves of children who have not returned. Do you think it was because you ran into someone from the Central Plains Immortal League inside and died?"

Three years later, Jiao Shuyu is even thinner, with a stretched neck and sharp shoulders, as if he is about to fall when the wind blows.

Jiao Shuyu couldn't figure out what was going on inside: "I don't think so." After all, the three-year truce agreement has not expired, and the Central Plains Immortal Alliance should not do anything to us. ”

Han Hui said: "But what if it is attacked in secret? You see that there is a lot of fog in here, and even if people die inside, they will probably be difficult to find their bones." It's not that the people of the Central Plains Immortal Alliance can't do this kind of thing that violates the truce agreement without knowing it. ”

Jiao Shuyu asked: "Do you know who the Central Plains Xianmen led the team to get the Bodhi Sutra?"

"Duan Hong from Wanyin Temple is here, and Dai Anfeng seems to have sent a young leader, I haven't heard of him before, it seems that he has only appeared in the past few years. ”

Jiao Shuyu frowned: "Anyway, be careful here, if you meet the people of the Central Plains Immortal Alliance, you don't have to go head-to-head, each goes his own way, and each relies on his own ability." ”

Han Hui wanted to say something, but he wanted to say nothing.

He has been in love with Jiao Shuyu for many years, but this girl has always been lukewarm, and he hides his thoughts in his heart and dare not say it. This mission was dangerous, and he wanted to make a desperate gamble several times before coming to the entrance, and tell his truth. But as soon as he saw Jiao Shuyu's cold face, he felt that Jiao Shuyu's heart for him might not be as hot as he was for her.

Xu has not yet come, he always says this to himself.

Han Gui smiled at Jiao Shuyu and entered the misty forest alone.

......

......

At this time, Yan Lin and Duan Hong had been exploring in the misty forest for a while.

The main purpose of their visit was not to explore the path, but to learn the secrets of this cannibalistic forest. They carefully observed the trail along the road, paying particular attention to footprints and broken branches, hoping to find the whereabouts of those who had gone but not returned.

Walking all the way along the trail, after walking for about half a day, Yan Lin suddenly squatted down and called Duan Hong: "Master Duan, look." ”

Duan Hong approached and found that there was black cloth hanging on the branches, and the embroidery on the cloth was colorful: "This is ...... The costumes of Baili Jiuzhai and the people of Baili Jiuzhai are also here?"

Yan Lin got up and looked around.

Thousands of forests, no one in sight, only the sound of the two of them talking. He said: "Hanzhu Sword is so eager for the Inner Dan of the people of Wanyin Temple, it is natural that he will also want to get the Bodhi Sutra. ”

"Don't let their hands go!" Duan Hong said angrily.

Yan Lin knew that she remembered their "relatives" who had died tragically.

"Keep walking. Yan Lin clutched the black cloth in his hand and held the sword tighter.

After walking for a while, Yan Lin seemed to see someone lying there in the depths of the mist. He was immediately alert and didn't dare to make a sound, but just made a gesture to Duan Hong.

The two of them performed light skills and passed quietly, only to find that there were five or six corpses lying there!

The corpse must have been here for a while, and the damp place was damp, and the stench of decay hit me.

Duan Hong was about to check, but Yan Lin stopped her and covered her nose to go over.

The corpses are all black clothes and embroidery, and at a glance, you can see that they are people from Baili Jiuzhai. Duan Hong asked when Yan Lin retreated to his side, "Could it be that someone who touched us and died in a fight?"

"No, it won't. Yan Lin said, "There are only people from Baili Jiuzhai here." If there is a fight, there will still be casualties among our people. ”

Duan Hong's heart was beating hard at the moment, and she was a little nervous, she said, "Let's go, it's terrifying." ”

Yan Lin saw that the corpse had decomposed like this, and he should not be able to see the cause of death, so he left with Duan Hong.

However, at this moment, he heard a sword wind behind him. The sword wind was fierce, stabbing Duan Hong in the back, Yan Lin reacted extremely quickly, and picked up the sword with a murmur to help Duan Hong block the next move.

Immediately after that, several rays of light struck, and the faces could not be seen clearly, but the clothes were extremely recognizable. When Duan Hong turned around, he immediately recognized the person's identity: "Baili Jiuzhai!" said and exchanged hands with the person.

The person who came was the cold return who had just said goodbye to Jiao Shuyu.

He searched all the way, and there were no animal attacks. I didn't feel any discomfort after coming in for so long, and the fog that filled me didn't seem to be poisonous. The only explanation was that someone killed him and the people sent by Jiao Shuyu.

He was already suspicious in his heart, and when he saw the corpses of several of his sons lying on the ground, he was furious. I saw the two figures in the fog longingly, and without thinking much, I thought that these two people had killed them. In a fit of rage, he acted earlier than he thought, and killed Duan Hong.
