The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 235 Fighting
Everyone was on guard, yet everyone understood each other tacitly.

With the treasure in front of them, everyone sat together to discuss the matter.

Pei Ning didn't know how to use the formation, so he held his sword and went to a distant place to keep watch.

Qu Chengjia respected his status and did not sit with Lin Bai, so he went somewhere else.

Lu Qingyin was sitting on the ground, Lin Bai was on the right, Yue Fengshu was on the left, and He Wenyao was kneeling.

Yue Fengshu also understood formations, but he only had a basic understanding and was not an expert in it.

Seeing that Lin Bai and Lu Qingyin had been talking for a long time, and it was obvious that they both had real skills, he stood up and asked, "What kind of formation will be used? When will it be deployed?"

Using formations to break the barrier is certainly a good idea, but the problem lies in which formation to use, how to use it, and how everyone needs to cooperate.

"We must first investigate the mountains and forests here to understand the flow of spiritual energy and the principles of the changes of the five elements." Lu Qingyin said.

"Then we need to carefully inspect the barrier to see if there are any weak points." Lin Bai continued.

"Set up another small formation and see if there is any formation that can interact with this barrier." Lu Qingyin said.

"Finally, we will set up the formation and accomplish our goal in one go." Lin Bai said.

Yue Fengshu saw that the two of them were echoing each other and thought that their arguments were indeed reasonable and similar to what he thought, so he accepted it with a pinch of his nose.

"Yao'er, you stay here and help these two." Yue Fengshu left He Wenyao and went away.

"Yes!" He Wenyao agreed immediately, with joy in his voice. After Yue Fengshu walked away, he sat on the ground, timidly glanced at Lu Qingyin, then at Lin Bai, and said, "Brother Zhuanlun, hehe."

"..." Lin Bai glanced at him and always felt that there was something wrong with He Wen Yao.

"Senior Sister Lu, what kind of formation are you going to set up?" He Wenyao changed his expression to a serious one and looked at Lu Qingyin seriously.

"Are you qualified to ask about the secret techniques of Xuanmen?" Lu Qingyin did not give him a good look.

"..." He Wenyao didn't dare to refute. He just laughed awkwardly twice, muttered something, and moved his butt closer to Lin Bai.

Since he had nothing to do, Lin Bai took out the wine glass and called Pei Ning over. The four of them sat down to drink.

"I heard that you came in with Jiang Xingchi?" Lu Qingyin looked at Lin Bai. Her silver hair was tied up and her eyes were clear.

"That's right." Lin Bai poured her some wine and asked, "Master Yue has helpers, they are Liu Tianhe and Qin Rensong, do you know them, Fairy?"

"Of course I know." Lu Qingyin drank a cup, "They are just chicken thieves and dog thieves."

She always looked down on people.

"Although this place is spacious, I'm afraid there will be problems if Sect Leader Yue's helpers arrive." Lin Bai said in front of He Wenyao.

He Wenyao took the wine gourd and poured wine for everyone, shaking his head, "Brother Zhuanlun always thinks too badly of my master."

Lin Bai smiled and ignored him.

"Don't worry." Lu Qingyin was relaxed. "In my opinion, there is more than one small world under the Thousand Valleys Sand Land. They may be somewhere else."

"This place is connected to Wuxiang's old residence, so the other small worlds should be the same." Lin Bai made an inference, "If this is the case, the many small worlds should also have a way to travel back and forth. They may be able to find a way, so we still need to be careful."

Lu Qingyin actually nodded and said, "It's better to be careful. You are indeed cautious."

He Wenyao was listening nearby and obediently poured wine for everyone.

It was already late at night, and Lu Qingyin seemed to have some free time, so she started chatting with Lin Bai.

She had been locked up for two or three years, and perhaps because she was extremely lonely, she talked a lot. But most of her words were not good, and she would mock anyone. But she kept silent about Li Xinghe, as if she was quite taboo.

By daybreak, the four of them had drunk a lot, especially Lu Qingyin, who drank the most.

"Drink less, you will be needed to set up the formation later." He Wenyao heard Lu Qingyin ask him to pour wine, so he advised her softly.

Lin Bai and Pei Ning glanced at He Wen Yao, then looked at each other, and said nothing.

Lu Qingyin raised her eyebrows and said, "He Wenyao, you actually managed to survive that day. I think highly of you."

"Hey, I'm..."

He Wenyao had a shy smile on his face. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw Yue Fengshu standing in the distance. His expression changed, he clenched his fists, and said angrily, "I am not as good as Daoist Fellow Lu in terms of Taoism or scheming, but I still have some tough bones! What doesn't kill me will make me stronger!"

"Haha, being a donkey or a horse does make you strong." Lu Qingyin sneered, very disdainful. She looked at Lin Bai and said, "Brother Zhuanlun, this He Wenyao is much worse than you. In fact, he has been scared by me. If we meet somewhere else, I can make him kneel down and kowtow without any action."

As she spoke, Lu Qingyin looked at He Wenyao again and said, "Your master is old and has little virtue. He is not kind and righteous. He is narrow-minded and has no tolerance for others. He has evil thoughts in his heart and is definitely not a good person! If you kowtow to me nine times, I will be your master."

She actually said that others were bad people.

"..." He Wenyao couldn't utter a word. He stood up angrily and was about to leave.

Lin Bai sighed and said, "Fairy Lu, you can't talk about a head of general affairs who has made outstanding contributions like this." As he spoke, he grabbed He Wenyao's clothes, preventing him from leaving.

He Wen Yao pulled at it but couldn't get it off. He also couldn't turn his face away, so he was really in a dilemma.

"Brother He, why did Patriarch Xiang choose your master to be the head of general affairs?" Lin Bai smiled and took out the wine gourd and poured wine for He Wenyao.

"Master, although he has great Taoist skills, never uses his power to oppress others. He is always devoted to spreading benevolence and righteousness, and appointing people to the right positions. That is why he was able to regulate the yin and yang of Qiaoshan! If it were someone else, Qiaoshan would have been in chaos long ago!" He Wenyao blew hard.

Lin Bai couldn't help but laugh, Pei Ning also had a smile on his face, and Lu Qingyin laughed even louder.

"Your master is gone." Lin Bai reminded.

He Wenyao quickly glanced over and saw Yue Fengshu still standing in front of the fenced yard, carefully observing the situation in the yard.

"I have nothing to say to you! People with different ideals cannot work together!" He Wenyao got up and left angrily.

Everyone laughed again.

He Wenyao walked up to Yue Fengshu and bowed. The master and disciple spoke in a low voice, and after a while, they left together.

"Fairy Lu, you are always knowledgeable and have a broad vision. I am really confused. What you said about Yue Fengshu just now really resonates with me. We heroes think alike!" Lin Bai poured wine for Lu Qingyin and asked sincerely, "Ancestor Xiang is the number one of the three sects and has always been praised by people. Senior Mu Yao seems to respect him as a brother, Ancestor Chen Yu also praised him, and Ancestor Gu also respects him. Although I don't know Ancestor Xiang's temperament, I think he must be like a mountain."

At this point, Lin Bai pointed to the direction where Yue Fengshu and his apprentice left and said, "A tiger father and a dog son, how come the people employed by the ancestor are neither like a mountain nor like a breeze?"

Lu Qingyin chuckled when she heard this, and after laughing for a while, she whispered, "You will know later."

Keeping it a secret again!

Lin Bai didn't ask any more questions and just drank.

After noon, He Wenyao came to urge them again, and Lin Bai and Lu Qingyin started to get busy.

The two of them first started with the fenced yard as their center and walked around the area within ten miles.

After surveying the geography and the direction of spiritual energy, the two came to the outside of the fenced yard and used spiritual power from time to time to test the barrier.

Both of them really wanted to break the barrier, so they naturally put in a lot of effort. Lin Bai was not shy about his ideas, and he would bring them up whenever he had them; Lu Qingyin also knew a lot, and it seemed like she had seen many advanced formations.

Yue Fengshu was sitting cross-legged not far away, Qu Chengjia was nowhere to be found, Pei Ning ignored everything and just closed his eyes to meditate.

He Wenyao naturally acted as the supervisor, following behind Lin Lu and the others, occasionally saying a few words. But when he realized that what they were saying was really confusing, and when Lu Qingyin repeatedly frowned at him, he just shut up.

Three days passed and He Wen Yao became a little tired, but he saw that Lin Lu and the other two seemed to be getting more and more energetic. Sometimes they were lost in thought, sometimes they lowered their heads to discuss, and from time to time they smiled at each other. After nightfall, they even walked side by side into the grove and whispered.

Three days later, He Wenyao had been ordered by Lu Qingyin not to get within a hundred steps of her, so he went to find Pei Ning. "Junior Sister Pei!" He Wenyao saw Pei Ning sitting cross-legged in meditation, and he didn't care, and woke her up directly, "You have to be careful!"

Pei Ning opened his eyes, glanced at He Wenyao, and asked, "What are you being careful about?"

"You, have you become stupid from practicing sword?" He Wenyao was heartbroken, looking as if he hated her for not fighting back. "You accompanied Brother Zhuanlun into the dangerous place. This kind of love can move heaven and earth. I have always admired you!" He Wenyao frowned seriously. "But you still have to be careful. You are not inferior to my junior sister Yue Xixia in appearance, but Lu Qingyin is not bad either! Lin Zhuanlun is full of vigor and vitality. You are inseparable from Lu Qingyin and spend every day with her. Aren't you afraid of something happening? Aren't you afraid that your Taoist partner will be taken away in a few days?"

"He doesn't like to eat the kind of food that Lu Qingyin likes." Pei Ning shook his head calmly, "Besides, if it rains, my mother wants to get married, how can I stop her?"

"..." He Wenyao didn't expect Pei Ning to be so open-minded, but he still persuaded him: "It's always right to keep a closer eye on it."

Pei Ning raised his head and looked at He Wenyao carefully, then smiled and said, "Senior Brother He, why are you more anxious than me?"

"Why should I be anxious? I'm just giving you a kind reminder." He Wenyao frowned.

"Really? I don't believe it." Pei Ning laughed even more happily, and then said: "After being a slave for a few days, have you already recognized your master? You are not afraid that Lin Zhuanlun will indulge in women, but you are afraid that Lu Qingyin will lose her virginity, right?"

At this point, Pei Ning shook his head and continued, "I don't understand. Being bullied like a pig or a dog, he didn't have the heart to avenge himself, but instead showed great concern. How strange."

"You..." He Wenyao suddenly became anxious. He stamped his feet and said, "Junior Sister Pei! I spoke to you in a friendly way because of the friendship of the Qiaoshan lineage. Why are you slandering me? How can you defame a good person?"

Pei Ning closed his eyes and ignored him.

He Wen Yao's face turned red, and he was angry out of embarrassment. Seeing that Pei Ning didn't say a word, he said a few more angrily, and when he saw that there was no one around, he hurried away and went straight to find Lin Lu and the others.

Five days later, He Wenyao saw Lin Lu and the other man setting up a small formation outside the fence and courtyard wall, as if they were testing the barrier.

Afterwards, the two of them walked away and sat down in the woods in the wild to discuss and deduce, not allowing He Wenyao to come forward at all.

In this way, more than twenty days had passed in the blink of an eye.

He Wenyao was still full of confidence, but at this moment, he couldn't help but doubt the strength of Lin and Lu. He didn't dare to be sarcastic in front of Lu Qingyin, so he could only mutter a few words from a distance.

Yue Fengshu remained calm and did not move, nor did he urge Lin Lu and the others. Qu Chengjia did not show up, and no one knew where he had gone.

That morning, He Wenyao saw Lin Lu and the other man finally take out the formation flags and formation plates, and start working around the fenced yard.

He Wenyao wanted to go over to help. "Get lost!" Lu Qingyin glared.

"This..." He Wenyao felt aggrieved, "We should help each other, why do you keep saying bad things to us?"

Lu Qingyin ignored him and just kept busy with Lin Bai.

He Wenyao lost his temper and went to find Pei Ning again. He asked Pei Ning to beware of Lin Zhuanlun's betrayal, while watching Lin Lu and the other two set up the formation.

The two of them seemed unsure. They placed the flags in the battle array from time to time, but took them out again. Then they lowered their heads to discuss, and then calculated with their fingers. It did not look very smart.

After five days of such hard work, Lin Lu and the other man finally set up a magic array around the fenced yard, with hundreds of flags of various colors, each with its own array plates interconnecting them.

Although the formation has not been activated yet, it is known that it is extremely powerful.

"Fairy Lu, what kind of formation is this?" He Wenyao actually changed his address to the same as Lin Bai.

"You are qualified to ask?" Lu Qingyin didn't give He Wenyao any look at all.

He Wen Yao clenched his fist angrily and looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai shook his head. "Fairy Lu has a broad mind and is full of mysteries. I can hardly understand even a little bit of it."

He Wenyao was skeptical and went to look for Yue Fengshu.

Yue Fengshu saw that the formation had not yet been activated, but did not enter the formation. He just stood with his hands behind his back.

Not long after, Qu Chengjia came back.

"Master Yue is in charge of an area and his cultivation is the highest among us, so he should be in charge of the formation." Lu Qingyin said with a smile.

But Yue Fengshu ignored him and just closed his eyes.

Qu Chengjia walked around the courtyard several times, calculated with his fingers, nodded and shook his head from time to time.

Obviously, Yue Fengshu and Qu Chengjia did not trust Lin Lu and the others, so they wanted to inspect the work first.

Another five days passed like this before Qu Chengjia finally understood and nodded.

"Brother Yue, these two are truly extraordinary people. They have studied the art of formations very deeply, and their future achievements are limitless."

Qu Chengjia held the whisk in his arms, looked at Lin Bai deeply, and continued: "There are formations within formations, and formations within formations. He uses geography and time, and is truly a rare young talent. But we are here to break the barrier, why are there killing formations, illusion formations, water-avoiding and wave-clearing formations, and fire-burning and wood-burning formations, which seem to be specifically designed to counter Brother Yue and my destiny?"

Lin Bai and Lu Qingyin looked at each other and said nothing.

Pei Ning seemed to have expected it. She smiled slightly but said nothing.

He Wenyao, however, opened his eyes wide, mouth wide, and looked at Lin Lu and the others in disbelief.

"Lin Zhuanlun, Lu Qingyin, why are you two silent?" Yue Fengshu asked with his hands behind his back.

"In order to prevent any unusual events in the courtyard, we have to make more preparations." Lu Qingyin said.

"In order to prevent the invasion of monsters and beasts, we have to take some precautions." Lin Bai also spoke.

The two of them argued, but Yue Fengshu couldn't stop sneering and said, "Junior Sister Qu is well versed in the changes of yin and yang, the principles of the five elements, and has also studied the art of formation. Do you two still want to deceive me? You are really self-defeating and embarrassing!"

There's nothing we can do. Since there are experts here, there's nothing much to say.

Lin Bai and Lu Qingyin discussed it and took out many formation flags and formation plates and rearranged them.

Qu Chengjia inspected the work again and was finally satisfied.

Everyone gathered together again, discussed in low voices, and followed Lu Qingyin's orders.

After Lu Qingyin had divided the tasks among them, He Wenyao asked in a low voice: "Fellow Daoist Lu, now that the formation is complete, how long will it take to be successful?" In front of Yue Fengshu, he did not call her Fairy Lu, but only Fellow Daoist.

"This is no different from a battle with a powerful being, so we can only leave it to fate." Lu Qingyin rarely replied to He Wenyao, and added: "Maybe it will break immediately, or it may take three to five days, or even a month, or even three to five years. Of course, maybe we will never be able to break it until we die!" As she spoke, her smile became more and more brilliant.

He Wenyao was stunned. He looked at Lin Bai and saw Lin Bai nodded. He looked at Qu Chengjia again.

Qu Chengjia held the whisk in his arms, without opening his eyes, and just nodded slightly.

Everyone sat down, each with their own thoughts.

Lu Qingyin sat cross-legged in the formation, took out a plate and looked at Lin Bai.

"Lu Haike is not good at killing, but he is good at borrowing power. Two or three Yuanying can hardly trap him, let alone kill him." Lu Qingyin's tone was quite sad, and she asked in a low voice: "What kind of formation did you make?"

"You already knew about this?" Lin Bai did not hide it and said, "Senior Gu Laoquan of the Gu family set up the Chengyu Pingbo formation, and all the Yuanying of the Qiaoshan Sect were sent out, and only then did they capture Senior Lu."

Lu Qingyin was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, without asking any more questions. She just put her fingers together and pointed at the array.

For a moment, all the flags moved without wind, as if they were connected as one.

"All things converge into one, the mirror reflects heaven and earth." Lu Qingyin took out a bronze mirror and placed it in front of her, at the center of the formation. Her white hair fluttered, and she pointed at the bronze mirror again, "The formation begins!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Qingyin's face lost three points of its color, but became a bit more charming.
