Chapter 254, Late Night Speculation
Yi Xuan stepped forward to pick up the spirit and the golden pill, found the two jade bottles and put them away carefully, and put a few True Yuan Pills in the bottle containing the golden pill to maintain their spiritual power, before he put the jade bottle into the storage bag with confidence and walked towards Liang Tian and the others.
Everyone had been worried about what accidents Yi Xuan would have, and finally saw Yi Xuan returning, He Xinghuo directly threw down his shield, and shouted at Yi Xuan while running out of the battle formation: "Shi Chang, what is the situation, that Jindan monk is dead? There has been no movement for a long time, but I am in a hurry!"
Yi Xuan had slowly recovered, although he was still exhausted, he still smiled at everyone, nodded and said: "Of course we are dead! This time we can make a lot of money, although it is extremely dangerous, but we have slaughtered a Jindan Demon Cultivator with our own hands, and we are going to be famous now!"
Several people were about to cheer, but they were stopped by Liang Tian: "This is still the front line of the battlefield, we have a big battle, it must be easy to attract attention, plus we don't have one in ten spiritual power now, we must not stay for a long time, we must leave quickly!"
Yi Xuan nodded and said, "Deputy Liang is right, leave this place immediately and find a secluded place to rest!"
Liang Tian walked over and put the remnants of Xin Mo into a separate storage bag and put it away, the seven of them didn't dare to stay any longer, took out the flying sword and flew towards the way they came, and flew until they couldn't hold on until they couldn't hold on before they dropped the sword light, and set up a hidden formation before they divided into meditation and refining pills, and quickly recovered their spiritual power. It wasn't until three hours later that Song Kaifeng stood up first, stretched his waist, and saw that the rest of the people were still meditating, but Yi Xuan was not seen.
Song Kaifeng's heart tightened, and he hurriedly prepared to walk out of the hidden formation to find Yi Xuan, only to find that he was already sitting on a bluestone outside the formation to protect the Dharma for everyone, and immediately stepped forward.
"What's the chief, the battle just now was the hardest for you, and the spiritual power consumption was also the largest, why didn't you recover well and run out to sentry first?"
Yi Xuan looked back, revealing a calm and relaxed look, and said leisurely: "How do you know that I haven't recovered well?" said in his heart, I have already recovered my spiritual power, but I can't tell you directly because of my special exercises.
Song Kaifeng mistakenly thought that Yi Xuan was holding on, and was very moved: "Shi Chang, you really have nothing to say about this person, and your swordsmanship is high, I really admire Old Song!"
"Go and go, don't shoot horses here! Since you have rested, you will survey the situation in the vicinity, and by the way, you will come back with some game, there is a big battle today, and you will be hungry and cooing in your stomach, and when everyone recovers, get some barbecue to eat, I still have a lot of good wine here, it is not good to drink alcohol in the station, everyone is happy tonight!"
Song Kaifeng hurriedly agreed, and ran away without a trace. This kung fu, the others also got up one after another, according to Yi Xuan's instructions, set up camp, diverted water and collected firewood, the preparations were just completed, Song Kaifeng just returned, carrying a half-sized boar on his body, and a few pheasants and fat rabbits in his hands.
Yi Xuan was about to take over the prey, but was snatched by Liang Tianyi: "Shi Chang, leave the barbecue matter to Lao He! Among the few of us, Lao He is the best at cooking meat, so it's right to hand it over to him!"
"It's okay to let him barbecue, but the wine can only drink mine, Lao He's wine is too strong, I only need to drink a small sip and I will get drunk until tomorrow morning!" Yi Xuan still had palpitations when he remembered that he had drunk He Xinghuo's liquor by mistake before, and repeatedly admonished, causing Liang Tian to laugh.
After a while, the meat was cooked and the wine was fragrant, and everyone sat around the bonfire, each with a large piece of barbecue meat and a pot of spiritual wine, talking and laughing, and frolicking until late at night before resting......
Yi Xuan sat alone beside the bonfire that had turned into ashes but still had residual warmth, and fell into deep thought: the task assigned this time was very strange, the Demon Gate stronghold that went to investigate was far away from the Hidden Fog Mountain, and there was nothing special, and he was targeted by the Demon Gate Jin Dan as soon as he reached the destination, if he hadn't broken through on the spot, he would have been killed for a long time, someone must have leaked the whereabouts of himself and the others in advance, and he would have suffered this fate.
There was a sound behind him, Yi Xuan looked back, and it turned out to be Liang Tian walking to the side: "What's the chief, do you have something on your mind?"
Yi Xuan nodded, and told Liang Tian what he had guessed in his heart, and the other party nodded and said: "Actually, I have been muttering in my heart, how could I be coincidentally bumped into by that golden pill!
"It was ordered by the uncle himself!"
"Who else was there?"
"There is no one else in the uncle's tent, only me and Deng Chengfeng!"
Liang Tian gasped: "Could it be that the elder Bo secretly colluded with the demon cultivator and wanted to kill me." Could it be that we swept his face during the martial arts exercise that we were resentful? No, when I return to the station, I have to go to Lord Du Wei to complain!"
"We have no evidence, and there is no proof of the death of the demon cultivator, how can Lord Du Wei believe our words! For the sake of today, only we should be more careful and not let it have a chance to continue to harm us. Liang Tian, you are thoughtful, you must help me pay more attention, and at the same time secretly collect evidence, I will immediately attack Deng Chengfeng when I have the opportunity!"
Yi Xuan thought about it, and then said: "Don't mention tonight's matter to anyone, lest it be bad for people to talk too much!"
"Don't worry, I know what to do! After so many years in the station, there are also many colleagues who know each other, we must find out the inner ghosts, and we can't let them endanger the lives of the resident monks again!"
The two discussed properly, waited until dawn the next day, and slowly drove the sword light back to the Hidden Fog Mountain station. Entering the station's big array, Yi Xuan asked the others to go back to the wooden house to rest first, and walked towards Deng Chengfeng's camp alone, preparing to deliver the task.
As soon as Yi Xuan entered the big tent, he saw Deng Chengfeng discussing with a strange monk in a low voice, and the two of them suddenly saw Yi Xuan, and their faces showed surprised expressions, although they were fleeting, they were clearly seen by Yi Xuan.
Yi Xuan pretended not to know, and said with a cold expression: "Back to Uncle Yu, Wen Hui has completed the exploration task, and I am here to report back!"
Deng Chengfeng tried his best to put on a calm expression: "Oh, you're coming back so soon?" The Demon Cultivation Stronghold is far away from here, and it was originally expected to take ten days to return, but you will come back in two or three days, are you not at the destination at all, and you want to perfunctory Ben Bo at will?"
Yi Xuan raised his eyebrows, and replied meaningfully: "Report to Uncle Deng, this is the jade talisman with the video recorded as a voucher for handing in the task, and the stronghold of the destination is just an ordinary demon sect stronghold, there are only less than a hundred demon cultivators, and there is nothing worth paying attention to, I don't know what the purpose of sending me to investigate?"
"Is it worth inquiring, Uncle Ben has his own conclusion, you don't have to worry about it! This stronghold is far away, but it is safe along the way, haven't you met any demon monks?" Deng Chengfeng's face was not good, and he changed the topic.
"The Demon Gate Monk didn't have the above, but the Demon Gate Jin Dan met one, but I slaughtered it easily, I don't know what the uncle wants?"
