Yu Xiaoman's face was still cold, but she was not wearing a black gauze compared to before. This was the first time Jiang Feng saw Yu Xiaoman's face. The last time he only caught a glimpse of the side face, he was given a serious warning.
Seeing this made Jiang Feng couldn't help but envy the man who was engaged to Yu Xiaoman.
Cold beauty.
In addition to a light application of powder, fair complexion is the most important feature. Although it is said that one white skin can cover up all ugliness, Yu Xiaoman's facial features can be described as delicate and solemn, which is completely different from Xiao Mingzhen's wild smile.
Why did he think of Xiao Mingzhen again? Jiang Feng couldn't help but suppress his wild thoughts and observed the items Yu Xiaoman was about to show him.
This was a painting covered in black cloth. When Yu Xiaozheng stood aside and pulled off the cover, three pictures with different patterns were revealed. These pictures were more like the patterns on the talisman, only bigger.
clearer.
"Sand Alchemy Talisman!"
Jiang Feng saw a familiar picture, which was the fourth-level talisman he had obtained from Chu Anlan before. He couldn't help blurting out that in comparison, the pattern of this pattern was exactly the same, but the color was slightly different.
"You have a good eye." Yu Xiaoman said, "Since you survived the canyon ruins, you must know Chu Anlan's situation, right? Can you tell me a little bit about it?"
Um?
Why are you asking this? It’s not normal. What’s her purpose? Rhetoric?
Jiang Feng, who had suffered losses before, immediately suspected that Yu Xiaoman knew that she had entered the Stormrage Canyon ruins, and she had also wanted to get a voucher to enter the ruins, but Jiang Feng was worried about her safety.
It was not provided. As for the prefecture-level monk Chu Anlan, the fact that he finally entered the ruins must not be a secret in Li Zong. The intersection between the two in the valley is supposed to be known to no one. It only involves entering the Yuanchu Dao Palace.
Among the few who survived, they were all probably monks from other sects, and they later escaped. Even if they knew about his death, they only learned about it from seeing the body in the storage bag of Tianlimen monk Zhou Zhenglian.
"The ruins are too big. I met him once. He helped me a little and we entered the Dao Palace of Yuanchu. As for what happened after I left the Dao Palace, I don't know." Jiang Feng decided to hide all the details first.
, including the matter between Chu Anlan and Feng Jiming, as well as forcing himself to perform divination, including the exchange of magic weapons at the Yuanchu altar. As for Chu Anlan's body, he planned to hand it over to Chu Yiming first to avoid any complications. This arrangement is normal.
, also very reasonable.
Yu Xiaoman just looked at him like this, which made Jiang Feng feel a little frightened again.
"He, an Earth-level monk, died like this?" Yu Xiaoman said calmly, "Without any reason? And you, a Xuan-level monk, are still alive."
"This has nothing to do with me." Jiang Feng shrugged, expressing helplessness, "I may be lucky."
"Tell me, if it has nothing to do with you, then why do you know this talisman?"
"I've seen it in a talisman shop before."
Jiang Feng blurted out, and suddenly remembered that something was wrong, this talisman? He only got to know it through the booklet in Chu Anlan's storage bag. This is where the relationship problem lies. The reason why Yu Xiaoman showed this talisman to him, and he
I didn’t pay attention and said the name of this talisman by myself...
It turned out that Yu Xiaoman set up this plan just to check whether anyone had seen Chu Anlan's storage bag. Of course, maybe he was not the first one to be tricked. During the last period of time when he was trapped in the valley, Jiang Feng had
After divining the whereabouts of Beringsong and Xiao Mingshan, and learning that Beringsong was dead and Xiao Mingshan was with Han Li, it must be that these two people may have been tested by Yu Xiaoman earlier, but they did not get satisfactory answers.
Answer.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Yu Xiaoman with his peripheral vision, and saw that she was also looking at him, as if waiting for him to correct his lie.
"This talisman?, there is not one for sale in the entire Zhenwu City. This is a talisman specially made by Li Zong?, a destructive talisman specially used by the monks who manage the spiritual land?" Yu Xiaoman said, "
So, do you still need me to continue to point it out? Don’t tell me that your relationship with Chu Anlan is so deep that I can share this knowledge with you."
"What will be the consequences if I don't say anything?"
"Being regarded as a possible murderer, he was arrested in Dongji City of Li Zong and put under investigation." : :
"How can I, a Xuan-level monk, kill..."
"You said you might be lucky."
"How did Chu Anlan die, and what does it have to do with you?"
Jiang Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and thought of this key issue. Logically speaking, Yu Xiaoman did not hold any position in the Li Sect. She was just an ordinary Xuan-level monk now, and she had a marriage contract with the Cui family. Even if she asked
, she should also ask about Cui Yinghuan. Even if this person is not her fiancé, he is still a member of the Cui family.
Yu Xiaoman was speechless and couldn't help but look behind him. Behind the carved screen, a figure appeared. It was the serious-looking earth-level monk Yu Chengke. I don't know what method was used, or maybe there was something wrong with the screen.
Strangely, when Jiang Feng called in, he didn't find any aura from Yu Chengke.
"I asked her to ask, is there any question?"
"Oh, no problem," Jiang Feng suddenly wilted, "Senior Yu cares about his colleagues, and his heart can be used as a lesson." Although he said this, Jiang Feng still couldn't help but feel suspicious. Yu Chengke had indeed traveled with Chu Anlan before.
Go to the Stormrage Canyon ruins, but Chu Anlan's death has no real interest in the Yu family. The Yu family is in charge of Li Zong's foreign affairs and frontiers, and investigating the cause of Chu Anlan's death should be the Bai family's business. The Yu family,
It seems that it has gone too far.
"Tell me, how did he die?"
"I wasn't there at the time." Jiang Feng was organizing his words while thinking about the possible connection between this matter and the Yu family. He decided to continue to conceal the divination and exchange of magic weapons. "I just defeated Tianli Sect monk Zhou Zhenglian later and got it from him.
, I obtained Chu Anlan’s remains and remains.”
"The body is with you too?"
"yes."
"Take it out and I'll check it out." Yu Chengke's words seemed unquestionable.
"Senior Yu, I'm afraid this is not a good thing. I am familiar with Chu Yiming, Chu Anlan's sixth son. It seems more appropriate that this body should be returned to the Chu family first. We rashly investigated in advance. I'm afraid there is something wrong with the Chu family.
Is it hard to explain?" Jiang Feng brought out Chu Yiming. As the conversation progressed, he vaguely guessed that the way Chu Anlan died seemed to be particularly important to Yu Chengke. He checked the body and found no obvious fatal injuries. It seemed that it had been directly
Death from impact on the soul.
"That's true." Yu Chengke's attitude softened slightly when he mentioned the Chu family. "What you said makes sense. In this case, I will go with you to the Chu family and return Chu Anlan's body and storage bag to Chu family."
Family members, as far as I know, Chu Yilin is now in charge, and it should be left to him."
"Senior is absolutely right what he said, but I have other things to do. Besides, I can do this alone, so I don't have to trouble Senior Yu." Seeing that Yu Chengke seemed to be more anxious than himself, Jiang Feng suddenly had an idea.
.
"What could be more important than returning the body?"
"I have a deal with the Lingcong Chamber of Commerce and need a middleman, so I want to visit a few friends first. After the matter is finalized, it will not be too late to go to the Chu family. The left and right bodies are placed in storage bags.
, and it won't be damaged." Jiang Feng said.
"I don't know what it is. It's just a simple matter. I will help you solve it. Come with me to the Chu Mansion now." Yu Chengke did not give Jiang Feng a chance to escape alone, as if he wanted to kill him immediately.
As if the matter was settled, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go now, Xiaoman, you and Xiaozheng will go together."

Jincheng Sect, Shuanglong City.
The head of the Liu family, Liu Kuiyi, had just talked for more than three hours with several close and related aides by marriage. He couldn't help but feel exhausted physically and mentally. The topic of discussion was very simple, which was the marriage between the eldest daughter of the family, Su Qiong, and his son, Liu Sijiang.
The boss, Su Liqing, personally talked about this marriage with him. His son Liu Sijiang was not engaged, so he naturally could not refuse the boss's "good intention", so he could only say that he needed to "make more preparations and have a good marriage".
He used delaying measures and summoned several staff to discuss the matter with him.
The date was set by the leader Su Liqing himself. As a subordinate, Liu Kuiyi had no confidence to object. In this regard, he was different from Leng Tingtao and Zuo Zichan, who were both prefecture-level and had similar cultivation levels. The former was sitting on Le
Lin Cheng, the latter is the city lord of this twin dragon city. At the critical moment, if they challenge the leader Su Liqing, they have the strength and confidence, while Liu Kuiyi is just a newly promoted prefecture-level monk, still relying on nepotism to maintain the relationship.
own interests in the sect.
The opinions of several staff members were very unified.
I have no choice but to agree to this matter. People are under the roof and have no choice.
Liu Kuiyi knew the situation of his son Liu Sijiang very well. He had mediocre qualifications and had no ambition to make progress in cultivation. He relied on precious and rare elixirs to reach his realm along the way. As for Su Qiong's situation, he was also a little bit concerned.
I heard that if this female cultivator who is obsessed with cultivation is allowed to enter her family, her son Liu Sijiang will be left behind sooner or later. If a son and a half are born, the Liu family will sooner or later become Su Liqing's private property, although this time may be very short.
For a long time, he thought that he could go further in his cultivation and protect the Liu family for hundreds of years. But if something went wrong and he died on the way, then the Liu family...
Hi……
He sighed at the empty room, feeling a little bored. He had struggled for many years and had no descendants. Sooner or later he would have to make a wedding dress for others. Just as he was sighing at his miserable fate, he suddenly heard a weak button.
Door sound.
who?
Naturally, no one dared to hurt him in the Liu Mansion. Liu Kui opened the door and saw Pan Xinluo, one of the many staff members just now and one of his closest staff members.
"Why are you back?"
"Master," Pan Silla looked around and saw that no one was in the yard or in the house, then he closed the door gently and said in a low voice, "I have an idea that may be able to solve your current problem.
"
"What's the idea?" Liu Kui seemed to see the light of day.
"You have to tell me first, whether you are willing to marry Su Qiong or not."
"This..." Just now Liu Kui summoned many staff, and the most talked about was the pros and cons. He himself did not give a preference. Now that he thinks about it, he may have misled everyone's thinking.
"I actually don't want to. This kid from Sijiang has a soft personality and is not suitable to be with Su Qiong." Liu Kui thought of a high-sounding but reasonable excuse.
"Master, tell me the truth." Pan Silla stared at Liu Kuiyi and said, "I am your nephew and son-in-law. Your niece has given birth to four children for me, two boys and two girls, two of whom have awakened to the Dharma. I
Of course I won’t harm you.”
"I'm worried about the foundation of the Liu family." When Liu Kui heard this, he felt that it seemed reasonable. Pan Silla's interests were deeply bound to him, and it would not harm him, so he whispered the matter.
It only scratched the surface, but Pan Xinma finally got a glimpse of the whole picture.
"Then disrupt this situation." Pan Silla dipped his index finger into the tea and drew a few circles on the table.
"What kind of confusion?"
"I got a tip that Leng Tingtao's younger brother, Leng Tingfeng, had sneaked back from the Black Water Gate a few days ago and had a secret meeting with the boss's fourth daughter, Su Ya. It is said that the two fell in love, and Leng Tingtao took the initiative to propose marriage to the boss, but
Su Liqing's attitude is not clear yet." He casually wrote the word "cold" on the table, "According to my understanding of the leader, lack of clarity means dissatisfaction."
"Is this related to the marriage in Sijiang?" Liu Kui thought for a while, but couldn't figure out the connection.
"If we..." Pan Silla made a downward gesture and crossed out the word "Leng", "If Leng Tingfeng disappears, tell me Su Liqing, will he still have time to entangle with us about this marriage?"
"This...it doesn't seem right to kill. If the Leng family finds out, it's us..." Liu Kuiyi hesitated a little, "Give me some time to think about it."
"We must continue to suffer from the chaos. Patriarch, if the current situation is not chaotic, when will you have the opportunity to take charge?" Pan Xinluo hit the nail on the head, hitting the sore spot in Liu Kuiyi's heart.

Li Zong, Zhenwu City, Chu Family Residence.
The visits of Jiang Feng and Yu Chengke made everyone in the Chu family busy. If only Jiang Feng was there, there would probably be no disturbance. However, Yu Chengke, a prefecture-level monk who has a job, is not a frequent visitor here.
Chu Yilin, a prefecture-level monk, personally greeted him and welcomed everyone from the Yu family and Jiang Feng into the inner hall. After a moment of greetings, Jiang Feng expressed his intention to come. Chu Yilin originally thought that Yu Chengke was the protagonist, but he did not expect that this little master of the Qianshan Sect would be the main character.
Men Jiangfeng was the real leader today, so naturally someone under his command gave some words of advice, and Chu Yiming was soon invited to meet him.
When Chu Yiming saw Jiang Feng, he pursed his lips secretly and greeted him warmly. Jiang Feng once again expressed his intention to come. When his men were ready, Jiang Feng "released" Chu Anlan's body. Fortunately, Jiang Feng considered this kind of public view.
In such a situation, Chu Anlan did not throw it casually into the storage bag, but prepared a fairly solemn and decent coffin. Otherwise, the suspicion of "insulting the corpse" might be immediately pinned on her head.
Yu Chengke came uninvited and stepped forward to screen the condition of the body with the Chu brothers. After careful inspection, he comforted the two of them and said that he would find out the truth, but he also reminded them that because
There was an agreement before entering the valley that even if the murderer was found, he could not go to seek revenge.
Afterwards, he prepared to take Yu Xiaozheng and Yu Xiaoman away.
Chu Yilin was naturally polite and thanked Yu Chengke for his help. Although it was hypocritical, this link was still necessary. After sending Yu Chengke away, Jiang Feng returned Chu Anlan's storage bag in front of the two of them.
In the gap just now, he stuffed the fourth-level talisman "Peeling Sand Alchemy Talisman" back into his storage bag. This special hot-touch talisman that is not sold in the market? Jiang Feng thought it was better to return it, otherwise if it was picked up, it would look like he "
There are many things like "taking advantage of it".
Everything seems to be going through a process, but everything is indispensable.
It wasn't until the crowd dispersed that Jiang Feng was led to the back house by Chu Yiming and entered his private space.
"I would like to thank you very much this time. With this incident, my status in Chu Mansion has improved a lot." Chu Yiming said, "You are really a lucky person to come back from the ruins. I am very pleased. .”
"Really?" Jiang Feng couldn't help teasing, "Wouldn't it be better if one less person knew the secret?" What he said was naturally about Chu Yiming's soul passing through his original body.
"But there is one less trustworthy friend to help." Chu Yiming smiled and didn't pay much attention, "You can actually keep the storage bag."
"This will make it difficult for you." Jiang Feng took out the Mo Di sword and said, "Return it to its original owner. This magical weapon has been of great help. Without it, I might have been trapped in the valley."
"You're welcome, I originally wanted to give this to you," Chu Yiming said, "but to be honest, I have been promoted to the Xuan level. Although I have plenty of money now, I still lack a magical weapon that I can use, so I can only give it to you. Brother, you are busy in vain, by the way, I have something to tell you."
