When He Ping went back, it was already a bright moon.

A few drops of rain fell on my head, and I felt a chill.

At this time, it was late at night, He Ping was lying on the bed, looking at the small bead in his hand, which was the one given to him by Zhao Wei'an.

It is said to be the pearl of the night, but it does not shine in the deepest night, the beads are smooth and delicate, and the texture is like jade.

I don't know if it's He Ping's illusion, when Xiaozhu was taken out, the candles in the room seemed to be half dimmed, and when Xiaozhu was put away, the candle flame seemed to be bright again, and the put away Xiaozhu was close to He Ping's chest, and there was even a little residual warmth.

"It's kind of interesting. He Ping pondered for a moment and put away the beads.

When I went to see Fang Wan today, I was involved in the matter of Wu Jing.

He Ping also sighed, presumably Wu Jing himself is what he called the Wu family overhaul, but it is a pity that his family has declined to this point, the sect has collapsed, his lover is separated, and he cannot see him again, the world is extremely miserable, and such a person, when he sees He Ping, he can still talk and laugh, this attitude of life, it is difficult to find others.

......

On the third day of the seventh month, the fruit of Tongmai is ripe.

Early in the morning, everyone in the Zhao family stood at the door of Zhao's house, except for one Zhao Wei'an, the rest of them were all there.

Although in the past, when I went to Yishui Mountain, I often lost a few people, but in recent years, because the map has become more and more strict, and many demon beasts have been killed, few people have been killed.

Therefore, the expressions of everyone in the Zhao family were very relaxed, but Zhao Weiquan looked very serious.

"Guard's haven't come yet?" Zhao Weiquan said loudly. He was the leader of this trip to Yishui Mountain, and in addition to him, there were two monks in the late stage of Qi refining who accompanied him, and these two monks He Ping had never seen before, and they thought they had only rushed back yesterday.

"Big brother, Guard should be awake at this moment, and he will be there in a while. ”

"If Guard's attention is not diligent at such an important time, and he only cares about snooze, how can he become a great tool?" Zhao Weiquan frowned and said coldly.

The rest of the Zhao family relaxed their vigilance, but he couldn't relax, the head of the family, Zhao Yi, had already told him that today's trip to Yishui Mountain might not be simple, let him be careful.

While he was talking, Zhao Wei'an arrived slowly, and when he saw Zhao Weiquan's angry eyes, he hurriedly ran to the farthest place from Zhao Weiquan, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look directly at Zhao Weiquan.

It's funny, originally Zhao Wei'an only needed to see Zhao Weiquan in the Zhao family and took a detour, but now there are more He Ping, and he is afraid that he will be retaliated by He Ping for deceiving He Ping.

Zhao Weiquan snorted coldly and said loudly, "Let's go!"

Because it was still early, even if it was because Zhao Wei'an delayed for some time, he arrived at the foot of Yishui Mountain in time.

Yishui Mountain is said to be one, in fact, there are many mountains endlessly, the so-called "high and low to the back of the potential, heavy mountains and mountains are stacked on top of each other", there are many flowers and trees in the mountains, and the tall trees hide the sky and the sun.

At this time, the four families under the mountain have all arrived, it is the Zhao family, the Liu family, the Chen family and the Tang family.

He Ping saw Liu He unexpectedly, and this time Liu He finally noticed him, but he didn't speak, only smiled contemptuously, and stopped looking at He Ping.

The Liu family has gradually become stronger in recent years, and a total of eleven people have come together with Liu He, and the eleven people are all about to break through to the Qi Refining Realm, and there are four late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators escorting them.

The Chen family and the Tang family were slightly inferior, but they were also much more than the Zhao family, and there were ten and nine people who came respectively, all accompanied by three late-stage Qi refining cultivators.

When the four families negotiated that year, it was set that no more than ten people from the four families should go up the mountain, but eleven people from the Liu family came, but everyone tacitly regarded it as invisible, and everyone saw the strength of the Liu family.

At the entrance of Yishui Mountain, there were four mid-stage Qi refining cultivators, and when they saw the four families, they hurriedly walked over.

The monks guarding here are one from each of the four families, all of whom are in their forties and in the prime of life.

The place where the Tongmai Fruit was harvested was extremely hidden, and it was difficult to find it without major repairs, so there was no need to guard it deliberately, and these monks were only stationed here to prevent mortals from indiscriminately breaking in.

And the place where the Tongmai Fruit is located has been laid out by the four major repairs back then, and the big array has passed more than two hundred years so far, and it is still in operation.

When the Great Array was sheltered, ordinary overhauls would never be able to find the place where the Tongmai Fruit was located.

The large array will be loosened every twenty years, which is also the opportunity to enter the array of picking, at this time you can pick the pulse fruit, after the pulse fruit is picked, you only need to put in a spirit stone in the secret hidden array eye of the overhaul of each family, and the large array can run for another twenty years.

At that time, the four families were prepared with their eyes, and each family left their own eyes when they overhauled the formation, as long as one family did not arrive, the big array would be directly invalid, and the place where the Tongmai fruit was located would have nowhere to hide in front of the overhaul.

It is not beneficial for the families to expose the place where the Tongmai Fruit is located, and the strength of each family is also similar, so it can be regarded as peaceful.

It is difficult for those who have broken through Qi Refining to hide their cultivation in front of those who have cultivated to a higher level, and the monks of each family slightly tested the cultivation of those who came to pick fruits, and soon determined that none of them had broken through Qi Refining.

"When picking the Tongmai fruit, you need to pick it gently, and remember not to hurt the fruit tree," the monk stationed in the Chen family instructed the four families, "The demon beasts on the mountain are fierce, you should be careful, if you are ready, go over there and get a basket and go up the mountain." ”

"The Beginning of Practice" records that the shape of the Tongmai fruit is the size of a citrus fruit, but the Tongmai fruit is very strange, according to Zhao Weiquan, this fruit is heavier than a boulder, and it is rare for ordinary people to carry a few.

Even those who were about to break through Qi Refining and already possessed a body comparable to that of a Qi Refining Cultivator could only carry five or six Pulse Fruits on their backs at most.

"This trip to harvest the fruit was extremely difficult. As soon as he entered the mountain forest, Zhao Weiquan called the Zhao family and He Ping together.

"The head of the family said to me that day that maybe the Liu family would be unfavorable to us this time. Zhao Weiquan's expression was very serious, and he was by no means joking.

"But you don't have to worry too much, they won't do anything directly to us now, they will only do some small tricks in secret, we should be vigilant, and everything will be fine. ”

The news of the four families is naturally "interconnected", and the key to this "intercommunication" is in the traitor, since the head of the Zhao family told Zhao Weiquan personally, it is not a lie.

Zhao Weiquan looked at the map and took the lead in the front, Zhao Yi naturally would not look at these descendants of the Zhao family, he had already lent him the secret treasure of the Zhao family for the time being, thinking that with this secret treasure, there would be no mistakes in this trip.

It's a pity that he needs to be well prepared to break through the Qi Refining Realm, and he can't break through at will, otherwise as soon as he enters this Yishui Mountain, he will break through the Qi Refining Realm, and it will be more secure.

He Ping walked in the middle, followed the Zhao family and his party, and slowly walked into the deep forest.

There was very little light in the forest, and it seemed a little deep, perhaps it was the light rain of the night before, and the moss on the stones was bright green, and a chill emerged from the depths.
