>Chapter 221: Go down the mountain to save people
The four of them, Xia Chen, were startled and looked at each other. Things seemed to be getting more and more bizarre. Two female disciples from the sect were kidnapped for no reason and then thrown into a prison with many people imprisoned. What do you think?
, why is it a bit weird. ( )
"How many people are in the prison?" Chen Qiushui asked.
"There must be dozens of people." Li Yatong hesitated, "But the prison is so big that I can't be sure, and Qitong was also separated. I don't know where she is. I haven't seen her since."
When she said this, her expression became sad again.
"Have you ever communicated with those people who were arrested? Why? Who are the people who arrested them?" Xia Chen asked. No matter where you are, arresting dozens of people for no reason is not a small matter.
"There have been exchanges, but no one knows what's going on. Except for people regularly coming to deliver food and water, no one has said a word. Those who were arrested were all sent to this prison with isolation charms."
Li Yatong shook his head.
"How did you escape?" Xia Chen frowned and asked. Although the isolation talisman is nothing, it is very effective against low-level acquired cultivators. After talking for so long, there is not even a clue.
Li Yatong said: After we were imprisoned for many days, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore and offered to escape. Although everyone's strength was not very good, they were all practitioners. The combined strength was very strong. They took advantage of an opportunity when the guards were lax.
They escaped."
"Escaped so easily?" Everyone was very surprised. It can be seen from the mysterious force that captured Sister Li Yatong that even the disciples of the Zhengxuan Sect dared to arrest them. It was obvious that the force was powerful and the methods were strict. How could these people be allowed to escape?
Even if just one of them escapes, it would be a huge disaster.
"How can it be so easy?" Li Yatong said with a bitter smile. As soon as we ran out, we found that we had lost our way. The prison seemed to be underground, and it was like a maze. We went back and forth several times but could not find the exit, and suddenly there was a fog.
, nothing could be seen... It didn't take long for them all to disperse, and then the screams of the arrested people were heard in the fog. It seemed that they were scared after being massacred, so they lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. I don't know.
Why did you actually escape this disaster?"
Everyone looked at each other in astonishment, especially Sun Li and the other three. Suddenly, they felt like their hairs stood on end. Li Yatong spoke as if he was actually there, and it felt weird and scary just thinking about it.
Xia Chen frowned, the fog...the maze...it seemed that this place was not simple.
I couldn't see anything, I just pretended to be dead, and then I heard footsteps getting closer and closer, and there were some sporadic screams. It seemed that our people were searching to see who was not dead, and then stabbed them with a knife.
..." Li Yatong said, her face pale, and she firmly grasped Xia Chen's arm. Obviously, the scene at that time stimulated the girl incomparably.
Xia Chen patted her little hand comfortingly, thinking that this situation was indeed thrilling.
Sun Li and the three of them were silent, wondering if they were themselves at that time, could they endure death getting closer and closer without making a move?
After waiting for a long time, Li Yatong regained some color and said slowly: "Those people were killing people and talking at the same time. I couldn't hear anything clearly. I only vaguely heard that the Xue family was arresting some practitioners and coming in.
When they were about to walk away, they were so scared that they didn't dare to move. But suddenly something seemed to happen.
They hurriedly evacuated but still didn't dare to move... Soon after, someone came in to collect the corpses and was thrown into the pile of corpses. They were pressed three layers inside and three layers outside, and nothing could be seen. Then they were thrown into a huge
In the pit, those people hastily buried some soil and left in the pile of corpses. They stayed there for three days before sneaking out."
When she said this, her tone trembled involuntarily, and everyone felt chills running down their spines. It was really unimaginable that a pure and innocent girl could endure it for three days and three nights in a putrid corpse pit.
Xia Chen's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at Li Yatong with admiration. He didn't expect that this girl was so tough-minded. She was completely different from what she was six months ago, which made him very moved.
"Do you still remember where you escaped, right?" Xia Chen said. This is the key to finding Li Qitong. It is impossible for such a mysterious and strange force to completely hide itself. As long as there is a place, it will be much easier to do.
"When Brother Xia Chen climbed out of the pit, he was surrounded by thick fog that made him unable to see his fingers." Li Yatong said sadly. She didn't even know how she got out. When she could see it, she asked others to find out where it was.
It’s hundreds of miles around
There are some ancient villages and market towns in the dense mountain forest. The place name is Lingzhuang. I didn’t know if the mysterious Xue family was in Lingzhuang, and I didn’t dare to ask. I took note of the road and headed all the way towards the Zhengxuan Sect.
You all know what happens next."
Xia Chen nodded silently, feeling that it was a bit tricky. He only knew a rough place. It was really difficult to find this mysterious Xue family. Do you want to challenge my patience?
"Brother Xia Chen." Li Yatong said in tears. Although she escaped, Qitong is still there. You must rescue her, you must."
Xia Chen said sternly: "Yatong, don't worry. Not only do you regard Qitong as your own sister, you will definitely save her. You can rest here to recover and rescue Qitong. Now you are Zhengxuan."
When you send a disciple, don’t call him big brother, just senior brother.”
This sentence not only cleared up the relationship between himself and the Li sisters in front of Chen Qiushui, but also made Li Yatong not feel disappointed. Xia Chen felt more and more that his eloquence had improved a lot.
"Yes, thank you, senior brother." Li Yatong expressed her gratitude from the bottom of her heart. At this time, she was not even half as noble as the eldest daughter of the Li family in Maplewood City. She was just a pitiful, helpless and grateful little girl.
Chen Lie and the others were speechless. They wanted to save people, but the second priority was that the word "sister" must be said in front of senior sister.
"Xia Chen, are you going to go down the mountain to save that little girl?" Chen Qiushui asked.
"Yes, the sisters were asked to defect to the Zhengxuan sect in the first place. Now that something happened to Li Qitong, they must be held responsible to the end." Xia Chen said.
There was also a trace of anger in his heart. Who dared to offend a disciple of the Zhengxuan Sect? Especially after the Li sisters reported their names, the other party turned a deaf ear to it. This was too disrespectful to the young master.
Alright.
Although he didn't have a good impression of the Zhengxuan Sect at first, as one thing happened, such as Li Chendong and other supernatural monks' protection for him, the concerted efforts of his direct disciples in the zoo hunting... Gradually, Xia Chen's feelings for the Zhengxuan Sect began to grow.
The sense of belonging is also increasing, and I truly regard myself as a member of the Zhengxuan Sect, rather than a passerby who originally traveled through time.
Although Yue Zifeng, Han Dongyu and others are still eyeing him, there are thousands of people in the sect, pointing out that no one is your enemy. That is impossible. After so many life and death experiences, Xia Chen has long adapted to it.
This world is bloody and predatory.
The Haoran sect doesn't care about anything. After all, it is the largest sect, Renren Renren. But when did a group of shameless mysterious cats and dogs dare to recruit Taisho Xuan? They are all dead.
"Xia Chen, let's go with you." Chen Qiushui said, "Xue has never heard of this before. It should be a strange force. Since we, the disciples of the Zhengxuan Sect are also kidnapped without scruples, there must be some magical monks.
Now, don’t worry if you go alone.”
"That's inappropriate." Xia Chen shook his head and said, "If it's to clean up the place, it would be best for you to go, senior sister, but now we are rescuing people, and we have to save people from a force that we don't understand at all, so it's best to keep a low profile.
Start from the dark and see if you can open a breakthrough. If you are too powerful, it will be easy to alert others. Besides, the sect is not at ease either. With you here, I can sit back and relax."
Chen Qiushui pondered for a moment and felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded.
Xia Chen settled Li Yatong and entrusted Sun Li and the others to take care of her. Then he went straight to the medicine garden. When he saw Han Dongyu, he told the story.
"You want to go down the mountain?" Han Dongyu frowned. Now that Xia Chen has reached the peak of acquired ninth level, he is only one step away from meeting his expectations. At this critical moment, Han Dongyu really doesn't want to let Xia Chen leave.
He wasn't worried that Xia Chen would take the opportunity to escape. Over the past year or so, those poisons should have been firmly in Xia Chen's hands, and the boy didn't realize it at all. The key was that when he went down the mountain, he would often encounter
What is unknowable is that if Xia Chen encounters any danger, he will not only be destroyed.
So he frowned and said: "Now that you are also the chief disciple, why do you have to do everything yourself? Isn't it just to save a little girl? Why don't you go there in person? Can't it be solved by just sending a direct disciple?"
Xia Chen's heart tightened, knowing that Han Dongyu didn't want him to leave. He had cultivated to the peak of the ninth level of the day after tomorrow, which was enough to attract the teacher's attention. If he stayed on the mountain any longer, I'm afraid a disaster would be imminent.
However, this was also expected by Xia Chen. He was originally testing, so he had already taken the other party's reaction into consideration. He thought about it and said: "Master, I also thought about sending others to rescue, but after thinking about it later, I felt that
Something is wrong. The Li sisters
Those who actually asked them to come to the door must be held accountable to the end. Otherwise, if word spreads, other disciples will feel that they have shied away from their responsibilities, and it will even chill the Li family sisters. I am your old man's direct disciple, and now he is the chief. Of course, every action must be taken.
Pay attention to the impact."
Han Dongyu looked at him with a slightly strange look in his eyes. It seemed that he didn't expect that this silent and calm disciple could give so many reasons, so he underestimated him. However, everything Xia Chen said was reasonable. For a moment, he
It's not hard to object.
Xia Chen waited calmly. After being together for a year, he knew that Han Dongyu was suspicious by nature. If he explained more, it would be more likely to arouse his suspicion, so he didn't say anything.
After a long time, Han Dongyu said: "Then you go, there are no requirements."
