Wuzhuang Mountain, Wuming Peak, where disciples live.
Liang Yan returned to his cave, first reinforced the surrounding defensive restrictions, then slowly walked into the room and sat down on a futon.
His face was a little uncertain, and his eyes were a little complicated.
What happened tonight was too bizarre, far beyond my expectations.
He didn't expect that Cang Long would return to the cave in advance, and he didn't expect that Li Yile and Qin An were actually Linghu Bai's people!
Fortunately, Luo Qing's mission was finally completed and the "Tongtian Eye" was successfully bewitched. At least his identity was preserved and he could continue to lurk in Wuzhuang Mountain.
Just as he was thinking secretly, he felt pain in his body, as if there were thousands of steel needles stuck in his meridians, causing him unbearable pain.
"hiss......."
Liang Yan took a breath and was secretly frightened: "Old Canglong is so powerful! He almost killed us without even using his full strength. Lian Xin looked down on him because he felt that Canglong's qualifications were not as good as those of Ya Sheng.
He is not the best among them, but the old man is a sub-sage after all, and his magical power is still unfathomable!"
Thinking of Lian Xin, Liang Yan's face turned a little gloomy.
Although he didn't have any expectations for this person, his behavior in escaping from the battlefield was as rogue as ever.
I wonder where Lian Xin is now? What is he doing? What is his purpose in going to Wuzhuang Mountain?
For some reason, Liang Yan felt a little worried in his heart.
The person he fears the most here is actually not Canglong or Demon Lord Qingyun, but this "senior brother" who seems to be fighting alongside him!
Because although those people were powerful, their actions were all traceable. Liang Yan was hiding in the dark and could probably figure out some of their thoughts.
Only my senior brother, I still don’t know what his purpose is, which can be said to be the biggest variable in this trip!
"Lian Xin...I hope you won't be my enemy this time."
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and touched the Taixu Gourd with his right hand. Inside was the "Nine-leaf Golden Cicada" left by the angry monk. This was his only way to counter this senior brother.
If push comes to shove, he will never show mercy...
Putting Lian Xin's matter aside for the time being, Liang Yan began to think about the current situation.
Cang Long's sudden return almost wiped out their entire army. Now it is certain that Lian Xin and herself have successfully escaped, but what happened to Nan Youyue and the others?
If Nan Youyue and Yu Xiaolong are caught by Cang Long, with his Yasheng strength, he has many ways to search for their souls, and then his and Lian Xin's identities will be exposed.
Liang Yan carefully recalled the situation at that time. He remembered that the moment before he was rescued by the Heavenly Rat, Nan Youyue had already activated the "Jade Void Glazed Umbrella". That magic weapon was very mysterious and should be Baili Xuan, who was also a sub-sage.
The sound remains.
Nan Youyue probably escaped from Canglong's cave through this magic weapon, otherwise Wuzhuang Mountain would not be so peaceful now.
If nothing happens until early morning, it will prove your judgment.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan sighed softly.
There is no use in thinking too much, the most important thing now is to seize the time to heal.
The power of Canglong's spells should not be underestimated. He was seriously injured. It is not suitable to go out again tonight. He must recover from his injuries in the cave.
After making the decision, Liang Yan meditated on the futon and began to repair his damaged meridians...
Nothing happened all night.
Early the next morning, the rays of the morning sun shone at the door, and Wuzhuang Mountain was still calm, with no hustle and bustle.
Liang Yan breathed a long sigh of relief and slowly opened his eyes.
"It seems that Nan Youyue and the others have successfully escaped. In this case, there is nothing to worry about."
Knowing that he was safe for the time being, Liang Yan felt a little lucky in his heart.
The next step is to complete the task assigned to him by Li Yile and find the entrance to Tianji Pavilion.
In fact, these two things are not contradictory, because they both point to the same place, that is: Tushen Castle!
Through Lao Jin's demon talent, he was basically certain that the Linglong Immortal Tree was hidden in the Tushen Castle! And the Tianji Pearl also showed that the entrance to the Tianji Pavilion he was looking for was also in the Tushen Castle.
So the key to the question now is, how to break through the barrier of Tushen Castle?
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, kneaded the formula in his hand, and concentrated on sensing it for a long time. A trace of disappointment gradually appeared on his face.
Yesterday, he placed six restrictions in the Tushen Castle. As long as someone tried to break the barrier, he would know it. However, a whole day passed, and no one approached the Tushen Castle, and no one tried to break the barrier.
"Now this is the biggest problem...how to get in?"
Liang Yan frowned slightly and fell into deep thought on the futon.
At this moment, brisk footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave, and then a woman's voice sounded outside the door:
"Senior Brother Qingshan, I'm here to see you!"
"is her!"
On the futon, Liang Yan's expression changed slightly.
The owner of this voice is Lu Qinghe’s youngest disciple, and also a close friend of “Qingshan”, Xiangqin!
When he first arrived at Wuzhuang Mountain that day, the woman regarded him as "Qingshan" and was very close to him. In order to prevent his identity from being revealed, Liang Yan gave her one of his bamboo flutes as a gift.
Although the bamboo flute is not a powerful magic weapon, it does contain some mysterious mechanisms. If someone who doesn't understand the principles plays it randomly, it is likely that he will fall into an illusion and end up sleeping for several days.
Before Liang Yan left, he specifically told Xiangqin to try the flute when she went back. According to Liang Yan's speculation, if Xiangqin played the bamboo flute, she would be in a coma for at least four or five days.
This was indeed the case. In the next three days, Xiangqin never appeared again. He must have passed out in his cave.
But what Liang Yan didn't expect was that the woman only woke up after being in a coma for three days. He didn't know whether it was because the bamboo flute wasn't very effective or because the woman had some special physique.
Liang Yan felt a little dizzy when he heard Xiangqin's voice.
This woman is too familiar with "Qingshan" and has a very clingy personality, which she shouldn't be and shouldn't be.
After a moment of silence, Liang Yan finally stood up and gently opened the door of the cave.
"Senior Brother Qingshan!"
Before anyone could see it, the sound had already come through.
A moment later, a slim girl walked in from the door.
This girl is twenty-eight years old, wearing a short yellow skirt, with skin as white as snow and a charming smile. She is Xiangqin who has not been seen for three days.
Seeing Liang Yan, the smile on her face became even stronger. She quickly ran over, hugged Liang Yan's arm, and said softly: "Brother Qingshan, I haven't seen you for a few days. Have you missed me?"
"Of course, you are my favorite junior sister!"
Liang Yan answered without hesitation, his eyes full of love.
He touched Xiangqin's forehead and asked seemingly casually: "Junior sister, have you been practicing in the cave these days? Master Canglong's time to escape the tribulation is approaching, why haven't you come out yet?"
Xiangqin seemed to enjoy his touch on the head. She squinted her eyes and smiled after a moment: "No, I seem... I seem to have fallen asleep."
"Fell asleep?"
Liang Yan remained calm and asked: "It's strange, you don't practice sleeping skills, how can you fall asleep?"
"It's just weird... That day I played the flute you gave me and meditated on a futon. In the middle of the night, I suddenly felt sleepy. Then I fell asleep without knowing it.
It’s on.”
When Xiangqin said this, he paused for a moment and then smiled and said: "Maybe my chance has come. This time I fell asleep unexpectedly, and after waking up, I actually realized something! Many Taoist teachings that were difficult to understand before suddenly became clear to me, and I even felt faintly
The bottleneck is a little loose."
"There is such a good thing!"
This time Liang Yan was really surprised.
His flute will only make people fall into a deep sleep without knowing it, and it has no other effect at all.
Could it be that this little girl was a blessing in disguise, and she suddenly woke up and realized some magical power?
This is too ridiculous!
Liang Yan felt something was wrong no matter how much he thought about it, but looking at Xiangqin's innocent and cute appearance, he felt that it was not impossible...
In any case, this woman finally did not doubt him, nor did she let Lu Qinghe see any flaws. This was a good thing, and it made Liang Yan feel a big stone fall to the ground.
"Young junior sister is indeed Hui Zhilan's heart. She can achieve enlightenment even after sleeping. It really puts me, my senior brother, to shame."
"Senior brother is so glib!"
Xiangqin rolled her eyes at him. Although her tone was a bit coquettish, her smile was sweet.
Obviously, Qingshan always likes to coax her, and she also likes this, so the relationship between the two is so close that it has long gone beyond being from the same family.
"Little junior sister, although I also want to accompany you, the inspection time is coming soon and I must go on a mission." Liang Yan made an excuse in an attempt to get rid of Xiangqin.
"Senior brother wants to leave me again, right?" Xiangqin's face looked a little unhappy.
"How could it be!" Liang Yan touched Xiangqin's forehead and said with a smile: "This task is arranged by Master. There has been some instability in Wuzhuang Mountain recently. I must stick to my post."
After hearing this, Xiangqin suddenly laughed and said: "Senior brother, I'm teasing you. Actually, I came here this time on Master's order to take you to see his old man. Someone has already taken over your patrol duties, so senior brother still follows.
Let me go to Narcissus Ridge."
After hearing this, Liang Yan, although he remained calm on the surface, felt a thump in his heart.
Why did Lu Qinghe suddenly want to see him? He also found someone to take over his patrol duties. Could it be that this person discovered something?
Could it be that Xiangqin told him about her coma?
Thinking of this, Liang Yan asked seemingly casually: "Little junior sister, master, what are your orders when you come to me?"
"I don't know either. He just said he would take you there."
"Then what did you and Master talk about?" Liang Yan asked again.
"No... After I woke up this morning, I went to pay homage to the Master. I also took the opportunity to ask him some questions, but there was nothing else to talk about. Later, the Master asked me to come to you and said that there were some
The matter was ordered, so I came."
When Xiangqin said this, he tilted his head, looked at Liang Yan, and asked, "Brother, why are you asking these questions?"
Liang Yan laughed and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious. Since it's Master's order, let's not delay and let's go."
After saying that, he took the lead in leaving the cave.
Xiangqin quickly followed Liang Yan, and the two walked side by side, talking and laughing along the way, just like a real couple.
Half an hour later, the two arrived outside Lu Qinghe's cave.
A clear river passed through the elegant house and flowed eastward.
There are many smart swimming fish in the river, as well as some strange flowers and plants, which look fresh and refined.
Lu Qinghe was sitting on the bank of the river.
He was holding a fishing rod in his hand, the fishing line was hanging down, but there was no hook. His eyes seemed to be closed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
Liang Yan and Xiang Qin did not dare to disturb his leisurely mood, so they stood behind Lu Qinghe with their hands down, waiting quietly.
Not long after, Lu Qinghe opened his eyes leisurely.
"You are here."
"Yes, Master!" Liang Yan and Xiang Qin responded at the same time.
"Thank you for your hard work these days."
Lu Qinghe put away the fishing line and said calmly: "Senior Brother Canglong is about to survive the catastrophe. You must stay vigilant. If there is any disturbance in Wuzhuang Mountain, you must report it to me as soon as possible. Do you understand?"
"Master, don't worry, this is a disciple's responsibility, and you must do your best!"
"very good."
Lu Qinghe nodded, showing satisfaction.
The next moment, he waved to Liang Yan again and said: "Qingshan, I asked you to come here this time. Actually, I want you to deliver something to me."
After hearing this, Liang Yan's expression remained unchanged, but he was a little surprised in his heart.
Lu Qinghe called him all the way here, but he just asked him to deliver something for him? What is it that is so important? Can't he deliver it in person?
Although he was a little surprised, he still followed the instructions and walked to the river.
Lu Qinghe took out a gold-rimmed wooden box from his sleeve, put it in his hand and rubbed it gently.
"This is......."
"This is our secret treasure in Wuzhuang Mountain, the Xuanshui Immortal Wood!"
"Xuanshui Immortal Wood?"
Liang Yan was taken aback.
As far as he knew, the tablet of the first founder of Shuixianling was made of Xuanshuixian wood. Could it be that the tablet was installed in the box in front of him?
No, this is absolutely impossible!
Lu Qinghe is the Lord of the Water Department, how could he do such a thing to deceive his master and destroy his ancestors? There is only one possibility, there is another Xuanshuixianmu in Narcissus Ridge!
Liang Yan quickly woke up and did not show any strange expression.
Lu Qinghe paused for a moment, then continued: "Send this piece of Xuanshui Immortal Wood to Grandma Tianchi for me, and then spread the word so that everyone else in the Twelve Transformation Tribulations will know about it. Remember,
Don’t be too deliberate, try to be as natural as possible.”
"Why is this?" Liang Yan asked puzzledly.
Lu Qinghe sighed and said calmly: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask. This is a decision jointly made by your junior uncles. You just need to do what I just said."
Liang Yan looked at the wooden box in his hand and knew that there was a treasure inside, but it was something that caused both Grandma Tianchi and Gui Wuqi to fight over it, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The thing that the two of them fought so hard for, unexpectedly went round and round, finally came into their own hands in such a simple way...
