Chapter 35: Tracking

Under the cold moonlight, the fragrance of flowers is permeated, and the soft night breeze gently blows through the flower beds, sweeping over the low bamboo forest next to it, making a rustling sound.

Under the moonlight, Yun Xiaoxiao and Han Xuemei stood opposite each other, staring at each other. The expressions of the two were very different, Yun Xiaoxie's eyes were full of consternation, while Han Xuemei was deeply silent after shaking her head.

The two people who didn't have a good relationship in the past are just staring quietly at the moment.

I don't know how long it has passed, Han Xuemei slowly retracted her gaze, and said lightly: "What are you doing in Ciyun Nunnery?"

Yun Xiaoye seemed a little embarrassed in his heart, and said: "I was just passing by, planning to go to Tianshui City for a few days, but Ye Zi insisted on staying here for one night, so ......"

In the dimness, Yun Xiaoye didn't notice that Han Xuemei's body trembled slightly, and he continued: "So we'll stay, and we plan to leave tomorrow." ”

There was silence for a while, and for a long time, Han Xuemei seemed to have the courage to say, "That plum leaf...... Is it really yours as it is rumored...... It's your ......"

"My woman?" Yun Xiaoye smiled, a little obscene, a little funny.

He said, "Everyone misunderstood, my relationship with her is very delicate, but it is by no means a relationship between two monks or something. ”

Han Xuemei's eyes flashed, as if with a hint of smile, a hint of relief, and said, "Really?"

Yun Xiaoxiao said: "Yes, this matter is very complicated, and I can't tell you clearly for a while." ”

Silent, the two shadows imprinted in the flower garden under the moonlight were also motionless, the cold moon hung high, and the stars were full of shadows, Yun Xiaoxie suddenly felt in his heart that the girl in yellow next to him tonight was very different from the past. Seemingly, it's not so cold anymore. And what surprised him the most was that Han Xuemei didn't hit him.

"You...... Quickly leave Bashu and go to other places to experience, Bashu territory, especially near Tianshui City, has not been safe recently. ”

Han Xuemei's voice came slowly, and there seemed to be a trace of tenderness in the coldness.

Yun Xiaoye didn't hear it, just nodded and said: "I think so too, yesterday I met a group of ghost sect cultivators in the south, and I had a big fight with them, and I even killed one with my own hands...... No, it's two demon demons who rescued dozens of detained girls. ”

Han Xuemei's face changed slightly, she turned her head to look at Yun Xiaoxie again, and said, "Where did you meet it?"

Yun Xiaoxiao was startled, she didn't understand why Han Xuemei had changed so quickly, her originally calm face had a bit of terrifying murderous aura, and the temperature around her immediately became cold.

He pointed to the south and said, "It's Baizhang Mountain near Xiaoqi Town in the south, Ye Zi and I also passed by there, and met Li Chanyin from Huolin Cave and the Song sisters from Wanhua Immortal Mansion, we shot together." ”

Han Xuemei frowned, revealing a thoughtful meaning. In the afternoon, in the bamboo forest hut, Master Fan said that at the foot of Mount Emei recently, especially near this Tianshui City, more and more demon demons have gathered here, and a few days ago, they also killed twelve young female disciples of Ciyun Nunnery.

Yun Xiaoyi frowned at her and said, "What are you thinking?"

Han Xuemei shook her head slightly, and did not tell him about it, because this matter may be inextricably related to Gao Yulin five years ago, and she was afraid that once Yun Xiaoyi knew about it, she was afraid that she would be desperately involved in it and arouse his sad past.

"It's nothing, you and Li Ziye will leave the territory of Bashu quickly tomorrow morning, don't delay more. ”

The night is fragrant with flowers, and the breeze is blowing.

When Yun Xiaoye raised her head again, Han Xuemei had already disappeared in front of the sea of flowers, and walked towards the courtyard that shrouded in darkness. He looked up at the moonlight, and when he saw that it was past the hour, he turned and went back to his room.

However, there are still many questions in his heart, and the girl in yellow tonight seems to have suddenly had a lot of things on her mind, which makes him puzzled. Especially Han Xuemei asked him to leave the land of Bashu quickly several times, which aroused his curiosity.

Han Xuemei thought of one thing wrong, she still didn't understand Yun Xiaoxie.

Yun Xiaoxie's character is that if you don't let him do something, he just does it. This kind of rebellious character is growing wildly in their hearts at this age.

The next day, early in the morning, it was gray, the weather was not good, and it was a little depressing.

Yun Xiaoye pushed open the door and saw the girl in white standing in the small garden, she seemed to be freed from the repressed bosom of yesterday and returned to her former appearance.

Seeing Yun Xiaoye come out, Li Ziye smiled slightly, seemed to be very surprised, and said, "You got up early enough today." ”

Yun Xiaoxie smiled and said, "I go to bed early and get up early, and my life is very regular. ”

"Phew!" Li Ziye snorted and said, "You are less self-absorbed, let's go, let's go down the mountain." ”

Yun Xiaoye suddenly said: "Slow, I feel like something big is going to happen here." ”

Li Ziye frowned slightly, for some reason, Yun Xiaoye pulled her to the outside of the bamboo courtyard, and secretly looked at a courtyard next to her, not long after, Han Xuemei, Lu Linlang, Xu Baofeng and a young nun wearing a moon-white monk's robe walked out, Yun Xiaoye hurriedly pulled Li Ziye to hide behind the wall.

Han Xuemei walked out of the courtyard, subconsciously stopped and looked back to see the bamboo-shaped courtyard not far away, her eyes flickered, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Xu Baofeng shouted, "Xuemei, what are you looking at?"

"Nothing. Han Xuemei retracted her gaze and strode to catch up with the three people in front.

After a while, Li Ziye and Yun Xiaoye walked out from behind the wall, looking at the backs of the four people, they were not heading in the direction of Ciyun Nunnery on the mountain, but going down the mountain.

Li Ziye said in surprise: "It's Han Xuemei and them." ”

Yun Xiaoye snapped his fingers and said, "They appeared here, accompanied by a nun from Ciyun Nunnery, there must be something big, let's follow them to see what is going on." ”

Li Ziye didn't speak, just glanced back at Yun Xiaoxie, who was excited, and shook his head helplessly.

The two of them followed behind Lu Linlang and the other four from a distance, because there were many shrubs and thorns in the mountains, Rao is four of them were all superb cultivators, but they didn't notice that they were still following behind them.

The four of them didn't walk long, turned a mountainside path, and after entering a thorn, it was secluded and peaceful, far away from the bluestone ancient road leading to the mountainside Ciyun Nunnery, and there was no one at all.

Yun Xiaoye and Li Ziye sneaked closer, wondering what the hell these four people wanted to do? Suddenly, four rays of light rose quickly from the thorns, and in the blink of an eye, they had already rushed to the sky.

Yun Xiaoye watched the four rays of light shoot into the sky, and already understood what he couldn't figure out just now, it turned out that these four people avoided the main road up the mountain in order to avoid mortals and fly in the sky.

Li Ziye pushed him and said, "Don't be in a daze, should we follow?"

"Follow!" Yun Xiaoye said firmly.

Immediately, the two of them took off into the air and chased in the direction where the four of them flew.

Southwest, dozens of outside, Baizhang Mountain.

The bare and lifeless peaks are quite eye-catching among the mountains, and no one knows why this mountain is so desolate, but the mortals who live in the nearby villages vaguely remember the ancient legends about this Baizhang Mountain.

It is said that this place was a gathering place for a small sect of the Demon Sect thousands of years ago, and because the demonic energy was so heavy, the entire mountain peak was affected by the demonic qi and quickly withered. Later, the Shushan faction, a righteous sect guarding the southwestern border, learned of this and sent Xiuzhen masters to exterminate it.

Although the demon cult demons have been exterminated, thousands of years later, this mountain is still barren.

At this moment, four rays of light fell from the yin of the mountain, it was the female disciple of Ciyun Nunnery and Han Xuemei and others from the Shushan faction. Due to the recent activities of the Demon Sect demons in the vicinity, and under the mountain gate of the Shushan Sect, coupled with the killing of the twelve young disciples of Ciyun Nunnery, there is an inextricable connection with the Gao Yulin of the Shushan Sect five years ago, so the abbot of Ciyun Nunnery sent the outstanding disciples of the Fan Shitai to accompany the three young disciples of the Shushan Sect to investigate this matter.

Ben Xin, his surname is He, he is the youngest of the seven disciples of the Fan Shi Taizhen Tradition, and until now he has only practiced on behalf of him, and has not become a nun, so his words are less sour and rotten like Buddhist disciples.

Ben Xin said: "This is Baizhang Mountain, Senior Sister Xuemei, how do you know that there have been demon sect demons gathered here?"

Everyone's eyes looked at Han Xuemei, Han Xuemei smiled faintly, and said: "I met a friend in Ciyun Nunnery last night, the day before yesterday, they had a fight with the disciples of the Evil Sect Ghost Sect here, let's come over and take a look, maybe we can find any clues." ”

Lu Linlang and Xu Baofeng glanced at each other, knowing that this junior sister had a cold personality, since she said so, she was afraid that she didn't want to say the name of that friend.

The original heart on the side suddenly said: "I see, then let's go over and have a look." ”

The dark cave was as usual, and there were no fingers in sight. There was only the slight footsteps of four people in the narrow mountain passage. Soon, the four of them came to the fork in the road, and then Han Xuemei and Xu Baofeng were in a group, and Benxin and Lu Linlang were in a group, and they walked deeper into the belly of the mountain.

At the end of the two roads, they both found traces of fighting in the huge stone chamber, and there were still corpses of demon demons who had been dead for several days on the ground, among which Han Xuemei and Xu Baofeng were the bloodiest in the stone chamber, the guy who was split in half by Li Ziye's sword was still lying quietly on the cold ground, and there were traces of being whipped by Yun Xiaoxie.

Further inside, there is the stone room where dozens of girls are imprisoned, which is empty at the moment, and there are several swollen corpses of girls in the corner, thinking that they were humiliated to death by those demon demons, and the corpses were discarded aside.

Han Xuemei frowned and didn't speak, while Xu Baofeng's face was pale and she couldn't help but want to vomit.

The two looked around for a long time, and finally exited the stone room to join Lu Linlang and the others.

Outside the cave, Yun Xiaoxiao and Li Ziye stood at the foot of this familiar desolate mountain and looked at the narrow cave on the mountainside, their brows furrowed.

Li Ziye said: "What are they doing here?"

Yun Xiaoye pursed his lips and said, "How do I know, it is estimated that the demon sect demons have become more and more rampant recently, and they actually ran to the foot of Mount Emei, so they came to check the reality and reality." ”

Li Ziye glanced at him and said, "How did they know that there were demon sect demons entrenched here?"

Yun Xiaoxie suddenly felt weak for no reason, and said, "Yes...... I said it, I told Han Xuemei when I met her last night. ”

He couldn't help but think of the beautiful girl in goose yellow clothes under the moon last night, and a trace of strange emotions flashed in his heart.

Li Ziye didn't ask any more, but he just stopped talking.

Not long after, Han Xuemei and the four of them walked out of the cave, their faces slightly pale.

Xu Baofeng said: "Senior sister, you, have you found anything?"

Lu Linlang said slowly: "The three black-robed people who died in the stone cave, with two bones crossed on their cuffs, should be the disciples of the Dementor Sect, one of the two major sects of the Ghost Sect. ”

Han Xuemei nodded and said, "The fork in the road that Second Senior Sister and I entered also found a black-robed man who had been split in half, and the cuffs were also painted with the marks of the Dementor Sect. ”

The pretty face of the heart suddenly changed, and said: "Dementor Sect, it seems that this matter is more complicated than we imagined, the Demon Sect Ancient Demon Sect, Hehuan Sect, Blood Condensation Hall and Ghost Sect Dementor Sect, Yin Spirit Sect are all called the five major factions of the Demon Dao, this Dementor Sect's power is not trivial, since the first battle in Huangshan a hundred years ago, their five major sects have retreated to the wild and evil land, why, how did they come out again." ”

Everyone's faces are not good-looking, the Dementor Sect may not be as good as the Shushan faction, but it is also a great sect that has been passed down from ancient times, there are many masters in the door, and the dementor thaumaturgy practiced is even more powerful, in the ghost sect, except for the Yin Spirit Sect that can compete with it, the strength of other ghost sects is far inferior to it. Now that the disciples of the Dementor Sect have appeared at the foot of Mount Emei, I am afraid that there are also disciples from other demon sects, and I don't know what big things they are planning.

Originally, everyone thought that the five major factions of the Demon Dao wanted to sneak attack the Shushan faction, but now it looks like this is not the case, if they want to sneak attack, they will already sneak attack, there is no need to wait so long, it seems that they have other plans.

After everyone was silent for a long time, Lu Linlang said, "Senior Sister of the Heart, where is the valley where the disciples of Gui'an fought fiercely with the Demon Sect demons a few days ago?"

Ben Xin pointed to the northeast direction and said, "It's a valley about forty miles away from here, do you want to go over and have a look?"

Lu Linlang nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

The four of them flew up again, crossed the sea of clouds, and soon disappeared into the sky. Not long after they left, Yun Xiaoye and Li Ziye also rose into the air, following behind the four of them slowly.
