There are bandits in Zhongshan

As soon as Jiang Lin said this, Cheng Xun's expression changed immediately, and he asked suspiciously, "City Master Jiang also knows the art of formation?"

"Not really, but after observing it just now, I feel that this formation technique is similar to the strange technique of the mortal world. I have learned a little bit about the latter, and it may be useful." Jiang Linzhao explained, and finally said apologetically He smiled, "If it involves your sect's secrets, then just pretend I didn't mention it."

His cultivation base is higher than that of Cheng Xun and Chang Li, so his insight is also much higher. Just now he found that when the spiritual power flowed through certain places, Zhong Mingzhu was a little bit weak, and he felt that she couldn't find the eye to say It may be due to the limitation of cultivation, so I want to try it myself.

Zhong Mingzhu looked at Changli, then at Cheng Xun, and said: "Master, Uncle Cheng, I dare not make the decision." Then he added in a low voice: "But there is actually no mystery in it, the star map belongs to the world, The difference is only in understanding."

Cheng Xun thought: It stands to reason that this formation technique is a secret of our sect and should not be revealed, but now we are trapped here, the poisonous miasma is getting closer and closer, and it will fall to the ground sooner or later, it's fine if I'm the only one, but Xiao The junior sister shoulders the heavy responsibility of the sect, and she always has to find a way to let her escape.

So he replied in a deep voice: "You just say it's okay, I will report to Senior Brother Mingyun afterwards, if there is any mistake, I will take full responsibility for it."

"Thank you Uncle Cheng." Zhong Mingzhu thanked him with a smile, and then explained the gist of the method with Jiang Linzhao.

The complexity of this formation technique is unimaginable for ordinary people. Fortunately, Jiang Linzhao is also exquisite in seven orifices, and Zhong Mingzhu only taught one method, so when the sky is about to dawn, he will figure out the way and try to use his own spiritual power to explore the formation. mystery.

Although he was seriously injured, the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the spiritual power it produces at will far exceeds Zhong Mingzhu's. Thousands of streamers occupy every corner in an instant.

Seeing this, Zhong Mingzhu twitched the corners of his mouth, and a smile flashed across him instantly.

Changli glanced at Zhong Mingzhu, and suddenly asked softly: "You really can't find it?"

She hadn't opened her mouth when the other three were discussing the Immortal Immortal Formation before, and just listened quietly.

She used to concentrate on understanding the way of the sword and rarely negotiated with others. It took her a while to understand something that was easy for the other three.Besides, she is not of a noisy nature. Seeing that other people were discussing important matters, she felt that random interruptions would disturb them, so she kept silent. At this time, she found that the surroundings had quieted down, and Zhong Mingzhu showed a lazy look, so she asked out of doubt.

In her impression, although Zhong Mingzhu is not good at fighting, he has never said "can't do it" so quickly when it comes to spell formations. Even if he fails once, he will immediately find a way to do it several times until he finds out the way.

Zhong Mingzhu glanced at her, raised his eyebrows, then lowered his head and let out a few dull laughs, as if he was afraid of being discovered by Cheng Xun, and whispered: "Master also thinks too much of me."

In Zhenwu Hall, there is a map floating in the center, on which several places are lit up, connecting them to form a zigzag line, and finally sinking into a certain mountain in the West Wanli.

Yun Yi pointed to the mountain and asked, "Is it really here?"

"It should be true. Nanming went all the way west after leaving Yanfu, and many people saw it along the way." It was Lu Wangchen who spoke, and he was mainly in charge of inquiring about information recently.

"But I heard that Nanming acted cautiously." Feng Hailou interjected, "How could he be so careless and show his whereabouts along the way."

Lu Wangchen pondered and said: "The news I heard is that Nanming's methods are becoming more and more vicious today, causing the men to be in panic all day long. In the end, a few people escaped, and a lot of news spread." He glanced at Yun Yi, " I heard that Senior Brother Cheng and Junior Sister were trapped in the poison formation, and the poisonous miasma in the formation is increasing day by day, Nanming said that they want them to experience the situation of Nan Sichu back then."

Everyone knows what kind of situation Nan Sichu encountered. They know that there is a dead end ahead, but they cannot escape.

A trace of unbearable expression appeared on Yun Yi's face, he glanced at the map again, and quickly made a decision:

"Since it's a poison formation, I'm the only one who will go there myself."

The sky was dark and then bright, and before he knew it, a day and a night passed, and Jiang Linzhao was still performing the spell.

The lines on the map have changed thousands of times, and he hasn't found any flaws yet. It's just that he hasn't shown fatigue after so long, and there is a vague sense of determination to win.

"It's good to have a deep cultivation." Zhong Mingzhu sighed softly, shaking the seven Zhu Ming posts lingering around her, as if agreeing with her statement.

Before she was bored waiting, she recruited Zhu Mingtie to play with, and twirled a trick at random. The floating Zhu Mingtie immediately projected a weak spiritual power, and in the palm of her hand, a small ball made of countless light spots appeared. , Those light spots change their directions from time to time, it looks like they are taking all the stars in the palm of their hands.

Changli felt that it was novel, so she stared at it for a long time, just as she was about to ask what it was, she heard Zhong Mingzhu slowly say: "In fact, I am more curious about why they did this than finding a way out. "

Why do you want to do this?

Chang Li shook his head subconsciously at first, and then began to think about it secretly.

Cheng Xun heard her words and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Zhong Mingzhu pointed to the top of his head and said: "If you want our lives, just pass us into this poisonous miasma, but they didn't. Although there were a lot of attacking formations when they first came, they are not suitable for Uncle Cheng and Master. For a person with such a cultivation level, it shouldn't be fatal?"

"That's right." Cheng Xundao, "At most it will hurt us, and we won't be able to move freely for a while."

"If you just want to trap us, but this poisonous miasma is suppressed little by little, it seems that it will kill us sooner or later." Zhong Mingzhu flicked his fingers, and the brilliance in his palm disappeared instantly, "That Nanming is so carefree. people?"

"I've heard that Nanming is never going to cause future troubles, and it seldom acts sloppily."

"I also find it very strange." Zhong Mingzhu frowned, "The matter of Heishuiling was presided over by the suzerain master and uncle. Even if Nanming wanted to seek bad luck, it shouldn't focus on my master."

Others didn't know about Zhong Mingzhu's little actions in Nan Sichuna, and only Zhong Mingzhu and Ruoye knew everything. If they stood in Nanming's position, Yun Yi should be the one who was jealous.

If Yun Yi hadn't been in charge of it, Ye Chenzhou would have been divided by them, so there would be so many things behind.

"But..." Cheng Xun showed suspicion, "Everyone knows that Senior Brother Yun went to Hexu Mountain."

Chang Li said: "We only know that Senior Brother Yun went to Hexu Mountain."

The implication is that it is absolutely true that Yun Yi went to Hexu Mountain, but it is not known whether he stayed in Hexu Mountain.

Zhong Mingzhu smiled: "Master still thinks farther. This formation, this poisonous miasma, isn't it saying 'if you don't come here soon, these people will die'."

The labyrinth is the trap, and they are the protons.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xun's expression became serious, and then Zhong Mingzhu sighed softly: "Oh, if this is the case, at least we will be in danger for our lives for a while."

He frowned, and was about to reprimand her for not being serious, but Jiang Linzhao suddenly raised his hand and said loudly, "It should be here."

Following his words, the scattered spiritual energy gathered together, twisted into a stream and sank into the place he pointed, leaving a bright mark.

Cheng Xun asked, "Where is that?"

Jiang Linzhao hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's this cave."

Zhong Mingzhu also leaned over, looked at it for a long time, then nodded and said: "It is indeed the cave we came from."

"This cave?" Cheng Xun asked incredulously, "But there is no powerful magic weapon hidden in this cave."

If there is, with their cultivation base, they must have noticed it early in the morning.

Zhong Mingzhu continued to play with Zhu Mingtie in silence, as if he was in deep thought, but soon he showed a sudden realization expression, and his tone revealed joy: "Yes, it takes a lot of spirit to connect the two fixed teleportation arrays. There must be a powerful magic weapon to guide it. And the teleportation array is a passive hand and foot recently. If there are suddenly more spiritual powers in the array, it will definitely disrupt the formation. Therefore, the teleportation array should be used It's the spiritual power of the formation eye." She continued: "Furthermore, because it will circle back here every time, it is hard for the trapped people to think that this is where the formation eye is, even if some people with deep cultivation come and go elsewhere to mess around Destroying a pass will not endanger this formation."

The person who made the layout really considered it extremely carefully.

"Then why didn't I feel anything?" Cheng Xun was still skeptical.

"It should be a blindfold." Jiang Linzhao said, Cheng Xun nodded, and then the two got up together, intending to enter the cave, it seemed that they didn't want to delay at all.

Zhong Mingzhu shouted to them: "Slow down, this cave is very big, besides, with blindfolds, even if you touch it inch by inch, you may not be able to find the magic weapon."

"What can Xiaoyou Zhong do?"

The sly look in Zhong Mingzhu's eyebrows and eyes flashed away, and he smiled at Changli: "Master, the key to finding out the formation is with you."

Chang Li was listening to their conversation carefully, when he saw the topic suddenly turned to himself, he was startled: "What's the key?"

She thinks that she is not as good as Zhong Mingzhu's [-]% in the formation, and her cultivation is not as good as Cheng Xun and Jiang Linzhao. If the three of them can't find the location of the formation, how can she find it.

Zhong Mingzhu pointed to the storage ring on Changli's hand: "Master, look in your storage ring to see if there is a compass."

Changli heard the words and went to explore the storage ring, and soon found that there was indeed a compass inside.She spread her hands, held the small compass in her palm and handed it to Zhong Mingzhu, asking, "Is this it?"

"That's right." Zhong Mingzhu took the compass and stroked it around, a ray of spiritual light suddenly floated on the compass, and it swayed like light smoke, "This is the Fengshui compass made by Li Langxuan, but it can be used Let's find out where the formation is."

Treasure hunting in Zhenbao Pavilion is to use a similar compass to guide the direction. Li Langxuan made it extremely delicate, and can perceive the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power. The direction is also very accurate, but the range is very small.Most of the casual cultivators in the Zhenbao Pavilion search for treasures in the mountains and plains. Naturally, this compass is useless. If it is a blessed place, the scope itself is very large. If it reappears in the world, you can find it without using this compass.That's why this feng shui compass has been reduced to an ornament. Zhong Mingzhu originally bought it for fun, but unexpectedly it is suitable for the current situation.

Zhong Mingzhu handed the compass to Cheng Xun and said, "Please trouble Uncle Cheng."

After that, the four of them turned back to the cave again. Zhong Mingzhu walked to a boulder, patted it twice, and greeted it: "Brother Shitou, long time no see, I miss you very much."

Jiang Linzhao was amused by her: "Zhong Xiaoyou is interested."

Chang Li glanced at the stone, and found that it was one of the ones she had cut off a few days ago. At this moment, a chill ran through his back, just like when he first came here.

It seemed that someone was following them.

She clenched the Langgan sword tightly, this time she did not strike rashly, but looked around vigilantly, but still found nothing.

"What's the matter?" Zhong Mingzhu noticed her expression. Changli looked expressionless as usual at this time, but Zhong Mingzhu had been with her for a long time, so he could see her emotions to some extent.

"I always feel..." Changli hesitated, "Someone is hiding in the dark."

"Really?" Jiang Linzhao immediately looked around after hearing the words.

Zhong Mingzhu just looked around casually, then walked to Changli's side and stood next to her, and said with a smile: "Even if there is someone, it has been so many days, and I haven't dared to show up, it's nothing to be afraid of." .”

Feeling Zhong Mingzhu's body temperature coming through the fabric, Chang Li inexplicably felt that the heart that had been lifted up before fell back into the distance.

"Yes." She nodded.

Not long after, Cheng Xun's hidden surprise voice came from a distance: "It's here."

The three rushed over immediately, and the compass was originally just a puff of spiritual energy like light smoke, but now it lit up the entire surface of the compass, looking like a bright lamp.

There are piles of rocks everywhere in this cave, but that place is extremely empty, there is not even a broken stone within a dozen feet.

Cheng Xun took out the impermanence stick, read a few mantras and tapped the ground. Soon, doubts appeared on his face again: "This seems to be just an ordinary ground."

Zhong Mingzhu raised his head and looked up, and suddenly pulled Changli away and said, "Master, how about you try throwing the sword upward? Four successes are enough."

"it is good."

Before he finished speaking, a white light shot out from Changli's hand, and he rushed straight to the top of the compass. It was really like a sword, but immediately after that, he heard a soft sound, and then something fell down.

It was the sword that Chang Li just threw up.

"It turned out to be up there." Cheng Xun said in surprise, with a touch of his toes, Feijian jumped up with him supported.

The sword of Changli Sicheng's power, not to mention the potential to open a mountain, would not be a problem to pierce a hole ten feet or one hundred feet deep, but now it was thrown down, there must be a powerful formation hidden there.

Jiang Linzhao also followed, and Zhong Mingzhu saw that it was too dark to see anything clearly, so he said, "Master, let's go too."

Sure enough, the roof of the cave was covered with an invisible barrier, only a few feet long, if one didn't know it in advance, it would be difficult to find it even if one passed by.

Cheng Xun asked everyone to stay away, and then attacked that place with the impermanent stick. Jiang Linzhao also sacrificed his own magic weapon, but it was a pen. He drew a pattern and pushed it out. As a fire phoenix rushing towards the barrier.

Unexpectedly, the barrier didn't move at all, so they had to cast the spell again, with some reservations at first, and then gradually used all their strength, but they still couldn't shake the barrier by a single bit.

Long distance is also added, but still doesn't work.

The cultivation level condensed on the barrier was higher than the three of them combined.

"Damn it!" Cheng Xun slammed the impermanence stick to the ceiling of the cave, and a large piece of rubble was knocked down nearby, but there was still no change.

Jiang Linzhao was a little exhausted. His injuries hadn't healed, and he was fine for a while, but he quickly exhausted his energy by continuing to cast spells, and the hand holding the pen trembled.

"How can this be good." His disappointment was almost palpable.

They were trapped here for more than ten days, exhausting all their efforts and never letting up for a moment, finally found the location of the formation, but they were stopped at the last moment, how can people not be disappointed.

Are you really going to be trapped here to death?He couldn't help feeling disheartened for a while, his eyes fell on Chang Li's face, and an impulse suddenly surged in his heart, wanting to call out her name.

But he quickly withdrew that thought.

Chang Li was looking at the barrier with an indifferent expression.

As if it had nothing to do with her, neither the life or death of others nor her own would enter into the depths of those eyes.

She is the snow lotus above the nine heavens, and I am just an ordinary person—he smiled self-deprecatingly, at this moment, he saw Zhong Mingzhu pull her close by the corner of his clothes, and then hugged her ear He said a few words lightly.

Chang Li's eyebrows twitched, and he looked at Zhong Mingzhu, something flashed quickly in his dark eyes.

Jiang Linzhao didn't see what kind of expression it was, but he did see it.

Happy or angry.

Nothing is set in stone anymore.
