After passing through the cannon fodder in the book, my brother turned out to be the male protagonis

Finally, it was Fang Yiqin who broke the silence: "Brother Baili, why did you ask my sister to come here just now? Is there something wrong?"

Speaking of this, Baili Chunqiu instantly became serious, and bowed to Fang Jingqiu solemnly and asked: "I would like to ask Junior Sister Fang to set up an array here to catch the culprit, otherwise if he is allowed to run rampant for a few more days, not only the foot of the mountain, I am afraid that Tianyun Sect and the surrounding towns will be shrouded in evil spirits."

Fang Jingqiu looked at her brother, and Fang Yiqin understood and explained to her in a low voice: "We arranged for disciples to be on duty here yesterday, but an accident still occurred. Some disciples said they saw a black shadow, but they couldn't find any trace of him."

Hearing this, Fang Jingqiu's face became solemn. The foot of the Tianyun Sect mountain was right next to a small town, and the poor townspeople would sometimes dig up some common wild vegetables near the foot of the mountain to survive. So her master told her that since the establishment of the Tianyun Sect, the sect protection formation only covered the area above the halfway point of the mountain where the sect was located, and no mortals were allowed to enter.

She also asked why the whole mountain was not covered. As for the poor people, they only needed to be given porridge regularly. Sui Lin said, "Can you tell who is really poor and rich? In the long run, some people will not think about working, and will only think about receiving charity every day. What's more, do you think the sect is used for charity?"

"Have you ever told this to the ordinary people in this town?" Fang Jingqiu asked

A disciple who was very high in life thought that she was afraid that some mortals would come and cause trouble and said, "I have already told the mayor when we sealed off the foot of the mountain yesterday. Junior sister, just rest assured and set up the formation. No townspeople will come and cause trouble."

"It's not because of making trouble." Fang Jingqiu muttered softly. Just as he was about to move forward, he remembered that there was a bag full of spirit stones hanging on his waist. He turned around and approached Fang Yiqin and whispered, "I heard from my senior brother that the cakes you bought yesterday were quite expensive. You, a sword cultivator, don't have many spirit stones. These are my small treasury. You should use them sparingly first. I will sell you some talismans in two days."

After saying that, a heavy bag was handed to Fang Yiqin.

He looked at this inconspicuous bag, and could feel the spiritual power fluctuations unique to the formation when his fingertips touched it. Feeling the weight in the palm of his hand, Fang Yiqin's nose surged with an extremely sour feeling, and at the same time, his heart was filled with warmth because of Fang Jingqiu's behavior. This feeling made him uncomfortable and nostalgic.

In fact, the spirit stones given to him by the sect are not few. Although they are not enough for her sister to eat pastries every day, they are more than enough for her to eat for a week.

When I looked up at her, I saw her walking forward with her head held high like a proud and noble cat. The corners of her lips curled up unconsciously, and she put the bag carefully into her arms as if it were some priceless treasure.

When he looked up at the other disciples, he saw that they were all staring at him as if they had seen something. Fang Yiqin instantly felt embarrassed and shouted, "What are you looking at! Has the mastermind behind this been caught?"

Baili Chunqiu stared at him and asked, "On the road of seeking, you should put aside all distractions and kinship. Aren't you afraid that she will become your weak spot for others to use against you in the future?"

Fang Yiqin glanced at him and chuckled, "Weak point? Maybe she was in the past, but now she is able to stand on her own. She has become my support and confidence. I am proud of her from the bottom of my heart, but it is difficult for people who don't have a sister to understand this feeling."

"It's not that I don't have a sister, but I was taught not to miss her." Baili Chunqiu said it in a low voice, but Fang Yiqin could still hear it clearly.

He was surprised that Baili Chunqiu actually had a sister, so he asked, "Where is she now? Why have I never heard of her?"

Baili Chunqiu lowered his eyes, struggling whether or not to tell this junior fellow apprentice whom he hadn't known for long about the past. But when he thought of how the Fang brothers and sisters got along with each other, and how his sister pretended not to know him every time he went down the mountain to gain experience, his heart became bitter.

"My sister's name is Xia Zhi. My family just gave her a random name. She has been disliked by my parents since she was a child. They just wanted to marry her off early. I wanted to help her but I only dared to help her in places where my parents couldn't see. When she was thirteen years old, disciples of Tianyun Sect came to the village to promote cultivation. Among more than ten children, they only picked my brother and me. I thought she could come to the sect with me, but on the day of departure, my parents caught her and didn't let her come to Tianyun Sect."

As he spoke, Baili Chunqiu recalled the past and his tone became much lower. "Later, I went to a remote secret place with other disciples to look for treasures. I met Xia Zhi there and I learned that she had become a disciple in a small sect. She had grown a lot taller and smiled at everyone she saw, but she was cold to me and didn't want to recognize me. Over the past few decades, I often went to her sect to see her, but she never spoke to me."

Fang Yiqin was shocked and asked in disbelief: "Decades? Not a word was said! Brother Baili, are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?"

Baili Chunqiu retorted: "Impossible! She has a burn scar on the back of her right hand, and the shape is exactly the same as when she was a child!"

Fang Yiqin was speechless. Although he didn't know how Baili Chunqiu did it, he didn't know the inside story and it was difficult for him to give him any advice.

Seeing Fang Yiqin didn't speak for a long time, Baili Chunqiu said to himself: "Master told me that only when the mind is free of distractions can one seek the great way, but I always think of Xia Zhi in my heart."

"It is not necessary to seek the truth in this way. These things are meant for the weak and cowards. As long as you are strong enough, others will naturally follow you as a role model. Why bother to follow other people's dogmas then?" Fang Yiqin said seriously.

Hearing this, Baili Chunqiu was stunned for a moment, but did not speak again.

Fang Yiqin looked at Fang Jingqiu who was directing the disciples to place the spirit stones not far away. He was full of pride and walked up to her and asked, "How is it? Can you handle it?"

Fang Jingqiu didn't even raise his head. He looked at the topographic map and answered, "Of course it can. It's just a protective formation."

"What we want is not just a protective formation, but also a formation that can sense the fluctuations of spiritual energy."

After he finished speaking, Fang Jingqiu gave Fang Yiqin a look and she complained, "You still want to sense it? Why don't you talk about the formation that can automatically capture people? No matter how powerful the formation is, it is not omnipotent!"

Before Fang Yiqin could reply, Fang Jingqiu reminded him, "By the way, don't put the bag I gave you into your storage bag. Just put it in your pocket or hang it on your waist, otherwise the formation I added to it will be useless."

Fang Yiqin was very curious about what formation his second fat man had set up for him, and asked, "What kind of formation did you set up on it? It's so mysterious?"

"Don't worry about it. It's for your own good anyway." Fang Jingqiu said evasively.

"Junior Sister Fang! We have already arranged the spirit stones!"

Fang Jingqiu nodded and motioned Fang Yiqin to stand further away. He then took out a stack of talismans from his storage bag, bit his fingertips, and smeared the blood on the talismans. Immediately, the cinnabar on the talismans seemed to come alive.

Many disciples stretched their necks in curiosity when they saw this scene. Fang Yiqin also looked at his sister with a curved lip corner. He really liked seeing his sister being admired by others. He felt a sense of accomplishment as if the cabbage he had raised for many years had finally grown up.

She closed her eyes, thinking about the topographic map just now, and used some spiritual power to assist in the operation of the talisman. In an instant, with Fang Jingqiu as the axis, one talisman after another flew out, causing a burst of exclamation.

"Open the formation!" Fang Jingqiu opened his eyes, made hand gestures and shouted.

In an instant, everyone felt a huge spiritual power enveloping them. Some disciples with lower spiritual power could not stand and fell to the ground. Seeing this, Fang Jingqiu attached a talisman to those disciples to resist the surging spiritual power.
