The quarreling eyes disappeared in an instant. Su Mu shuddered and recovered from Ling Chen's cold eyes, only to find that the man with a pair of deep eyes turned around and walked towards the stairs...,
"this?"
The man in green and Chaoyue looked at each other and nodded. Chaoyue stood up in a hurry and ran to the stairs to stop Ling Chen. He looked at Ling Chen with a puzzled look on his face; "Fellow Daoist Ling? This..."
"Fellow Taoist Super, have you invited Su Mu for this trip?" Interrupting Chaoyue's words, Ling Chen looked coldly at the thin figure on the wooden table.
"Yes, is there any problem with this? Fellow Daoist Ling, you don't know that although this Su Mu is not very effective in combat, he is proficient in formations. If we have fellow Daoist Su to help us this time, it will be much easier for us."
"The way of formation? He knows formation?" Ling Chen thought, glancing at Su Mu who was looking in the direction of the wooden table.
After discovering that Su Mu was also looking at him sideways, the focus of his eyes suddenly went away, and the two of them looked away.
"Does Fellow Daoist Ling have something to do with Fellow Daoist Su..."
"It doesn't matter. Since Su Mu knows the art of formation, it won't be a big problem if we go together this time."
Ling Chen came back to his senses and realized that his dislike of Su Mu was not entirely due to his threats. That point could not make Ling Chen always grudge. In the final analysis, the conflict was caused by the treasure, but the two of them could not say that it was because of the treasure.
And there was a conflict.
Originally, with Ling Chen's temperament, he would not easily kill people and seize treasures, but Su Mu had previously forced him to hand over the storage bag to him in front of the main hall, and had embezzled the stolen goods when dividing the treasures. At that moment, Ling Chen felt really guilty.
A hint of murderous intent arose.
Who can be patient in front of a baby?
In fact, he is not afraid of Su Mu's verbal threats at all. According to Ling Chen's observation, this Su Mu is obviously not simple. Regardless of the formation attainments and insights, they are not what a low-level casual cultivator should have. What he is really afraid of is this person named Su Mu.
The young man is most likely a disciple of a certain sect who has gone out to practice.
If he didn't have so many worries, Su Mu would be a dead person now.
However, Ling Chen is not a petty person. At the Sunset Gate, he did find that Su Mu was very accomplished in formations. He even saw the Sunset Gate's sect-protecting formation with just a few glances.
Since the two have not completely broken up yet, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy.
If there was an additional formation master in the encirclement and suppression of Rock Python this time, he would endure it even if he felt a little disgusted.
The other side is on the wooden table!
The man in green looked at Su Mu in confusion; "Between you, Fellow Daoist Su, and Fellow Daoist Ling..."
"Gu...no, it's just his own narrow-mindedness."
Su Mu took a sip of a cup of fragrant tea and rejected the man in green with an unhappy expression.
It's obvious that Ling Chen is ungrateful. If I hadn't brought him into the Sunset Gate, he wouldn't even be able to see the scum of the treasure...
"Oh." It could be seen that the two of them must have experienced unpleasant things. The man in Tsing Yi nodded knowingly and didn't ask any more questions.
——)——
"Fellow Daoist Ling, please take a seat." Chaoyue, who pulled Ling Chen back to the wooden table, stood up and introduced the man in green to Ling Chen.
It turns out that the man in green named 'Chen Zhi' and Chaoyue are secluded cultivators in this area of the Black Bear Mountains. Looking at Chaoyue's old but energetic face, even a fool knows that Chaoyue has been stuck at the bottleneck of this spiritual gathering peak for many years.
"Haha, the three fellow Taoists are laughing. Chao has indeed been stuck in this bottleneck for more than ten years." Chaoyue seemed to see the doubts of Ling Chen and the others, but his squirming lips did not make a sound, but his spiritual consciousness.
Send the message to the three people present.
Su Mu glanced sideways at Ling Chen. After seeing the latter's expressionless face, he turned his head boredly and listened to Chaoyue explaining some knowledge about rock pythons.
The lively crowd around them did not affect the spiritual communication between the few people.
“………………Under discussion…………”
"Fellow Super Daoist, I roughly understand what you mean, let Ling Mou carry it alone..." Ling Chen listened to Chaoyue's words, and the more he listened, the more unpleasant he became. His face changed, and he finally revealed his dissatisfaction.
"Now, fellow Daoist Ling, don't get me wrong. We don't mean to let fellow Daoist Ling face the rock python alone."
"Fellow Daoist Ling is following the route of body training, and his physical body must be stronger than ordinary people, haha! Don't get excited, fellow Daoist Ling, we are not asking you to fight against the rock python alone, but you can run at the back when retreating, because
The rock python is extremely powerful, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to withstand the blow from the rock python's tail." Chaoyue also slowly explained.
"This..." Ling Chen is not stupid, he knows the great meaning of transcendence, and Chen Zhi and Su Mu over there are also looking directly at Ling Chen.
"If this situation really doesn't happen, it's not a problem for Ling to run behind, but I would like to ask fellow Taoist Chao not to abandon his teammates." Under Su Mu's slightly surprised gaze, Ling Chen calmly said to Chao Chao.
How could Ling Chen so stupidly agree to transcend when he knew he was a human shield? He previously thought that Ling Chen was most likely to be dissatisfied with the arrangements of Transcendence and leave the team, so now Chen Zhi looked at Ling Chen's
There was also a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Haha! That's for sure. When the time comes, Fellow Daoist Ling will just hold the rock python while we release magic and long-range attacks from a distance." Chaoyue answered Ling Chen in the affirmative.
"Also! Ling defended the three of them against monsters that were comparable to monks in the early stages of the mortal realm. Is this reward worth...?"
The three people next to him looked at Ling Chen with smiles. It turns out that this guy agreed so readily, but he just wanted to get more rewards."
"At this point, the three of us naturally understand that the flesh and blood of the rock python is of extraordinary significance to you body-forging monks. Although the flesh, flesh, sinews and bones are also worth some spiritual stones, Chao's greatest hope at present is to use the demon
"The inner elixir of the beast can break through the current bottleneck." Beyond these words, it was directly stated that he only needed the inner elixir of the rock python, but the flesh and blood of the rock python did not open, because there were two fellow Taoists beside him.
"I don't have any objections. Super Taoist Brother, you can allocate them," Su Mu said together.
"Haha, that's best..." After discussing the remuneration, several people agreed that whoever contributes the most will get more remuneration. Everyone reached an agreement on this point, and thus also made a small contribution to Ling Chen's dangerous post-interruption mission.
Small compensation.
After a few people reached an agreement, the next step was to formulate an encirclement and suppression plan.
——————
"The 'Heart Khan Desert' is nearly a hundred miles away from the City of Dawn, and the size of the 'Heart Khan Desert' is far beyond our imagination. When I traveled to the 'Heart Khan Desert', if I hadn't gotten a share by chance.
I don’t know how to get the road map outside the ‘Xinhan Desert’, and I discovered that the ‘Xinhan Desert’ is actually inhabited by such a huge population of rock pythons.” Chaoyue explained to everyone some of his personal experiences and some insights into the Xinhan Desert.
…
…
The lively and noisy night market gradually dispersed, and the casual practitioners on the desks in the hall also went to the guest rooms to meditate and retreat.
…
...until the end, there were only two or three sparse tables of casual cultivators in the hall, chatting——
Su Mu looked at the breeze blowing outside the inn from time to time, passing by a few pieces of guessing paper after the busy market! She looked absent-minded, but Ling Chen and Chen Zhi next to her listened very seriously.
Chaoyue kept explaining to the three of them the habits of rock pythons and how to deal with them.
"If we encounter a large group of rock pythons surrounding us, we can only use the terrain of the 'Xinhan Desert' to deal with them. However, the geographical location of the Xinhan Desert is a bit strange. This is still the outer area that I know. Fellow Taoists
But after passing this map to each other, the Rock Python clan also has a very domineering concept of territory..."
Chen Zhi nodded, and his spiritual consciousness transmitted messages to the three of them;
"If we can really attract one or two rock pythons as fellow Taoist Master Chao said, we will use thunder to kill them quickly. Not only is the risk small, but it is also stable and safe."
When Chaoyue heard Chen Zhi's contempt for the rock python, he shook his head and said through his spiritual consciousness;
"Alas, Fellow Daoist Chen should not be underestimated. If it is really going to be like what I set, why would we bother to make so many contingency measures?"
Ling Chen frowned and said through a message: "Does Super Taoist Fellow have something else to hide?"
As soon as the words came out, Su Mu and Chen Zhi next to them looked at Chaoyue, both puzzled.
"All this stems from the ever-changing geographical environment of the Xinhan Desert"
"Changing environment?" The three of them looked at Beyond in confusion.
"The environment I'm talking about is actually the ever-changing nest of the rock python. According to legend, the rock python clan moves and changes its nest every five years. If we enter the Xinhan Desert, the rock python will die in advance.
Changing the nest will be very bad for us."
"The Xinhan Desert is so big, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to find the rock python's nest." Chen Zhi seemed to know something about the Xinhan Desert and said worriedly.
In fact, it is not just a problem in finding the rock python. For example, many of the strategies beyond the setting are designed around the rock python's unchanged nest. Once the rock python's nest is moved, it will not only represent the mission of this trip.
The target disappears.
Even if you find the migration nest of rock pythons, how to retreat after alarming a large group of rock pythons, and which way to retreat without being surrounded by rock pythons? These questions are buried in everyone's heart, and they can only rely on whether the rock python nests are safe.
There is hope for change, otherwise we will have to reset the contingency strategy in the end.
"How long has it been since the last five years?" Ling Chen asked.
Su Mu is also keeping a close eye on Transcendence. As long as the lair remains unchanged, then the trip will have a goal and everything will be done according to the original plan.
"3 years" The last time Chao Mouqian entered the Xinhan Desert for experience was three years ago, and he found that the rock python was still moving at the location marked on the map."
"In this case, we have no choice but to go and check it out in person. If it's not there, it all depends on our luck," Ling Chen said with a smile.
"Um"
"It's getting late. Let's go back and rest first. We will set off in two days. During this time, I hope you will prepare some of the items Chao mentioned to make this trip smoother." Chaoyue stood up and looked at the three of them and said.
"Okay." Ling Chen and Su Mu walked away, and then they returned to their respective guest rooms one after another...
