"Brother, we have to put this puppet away and check the formation on it. Maybe we can find traces." Tang Yue looked at the torn apart puppet and guessed that the master of the formation was hiding in secret. He might be a driving puppet.
expert.
"Okay." Ji Chongguang waved his hand and put away the puppets on the ground.
Nangong Yan frowned and said: "It's strange, I don't remember this person on the list." She is the lady of the city lord's palace. She was ordered by the city lord to make this event complete safely and smoothly. When the city lord was in the palace, he would put the person on the list.
Checked everything with her.
She knew most of the people in the sect and remembered everyone before traveling, but she didn't know whose identity this guy borrowed to come here.
Ji Chongguang was silent for a moment and said: "I don't remember this person, and I counted the number of people. We are not short of people now, which means that when we came in, no one noticed that there was one more person."
This thing is very strange. The monks can count hundreds of people at a glance. In addition to the juniors like them, there are also elders in the transformation stage in the hall, but none of them found this puppet hidden in the team.
Just follow it, all the way up the ladder.
Duan Yunming suddenly said: "Tang Yue, you have provoked some enemies, right? So this puppet came with you and is only targeting you. Otherwise, everyone in the city hopes that the mission will go smoothly and the murderer will not be able to steal our spiritual roots in the secret realm.
, how could you come to sabotage our mission?"
He was already biased against Tang Yue, and he had just made a big mistake because of her on the ladder, so he had to catch her.
Tang Yue looked at this man in disbelief, "This fellow Taoist from Xuanyuan Mountain, are you suffering from any disease? Is it a disease related to the brain? Are you suffering from it now?"
Duan Yunming said angrily: "Then what do you want?"
Senior Brother Ji came out to stop Duan Yunming again, "Well, it is indeed your fault, Junior Brother Duan. Junior Sister Tang has never targeted you, but you first talked to her on the ladder, causing her to be distracted, and just now you wanted to slander Junior Sister Tang. I don't
It is clear where your resentment towards her comes from, but it should not be shown in this crucial mission. Please make amends to her."
Then he briefly and clearly explained the mission of their team, which was actually to escort Tang Yue to plant the spiritual roots into the flowers, and then take the seeds back. She was even the one to pick up the spiritual roots.
Tang Yue sneered, "How could I know that you were targeting me and slandering me without any basis at such an important time? I am not responsible for the dirty thoughts in your heart. It is you who should not doubt others without reason, and I think
You are only targeting me. The people in Xuanyuan Mountain are really overbearing. You can only throw dirty water on others, and others cannot take it back."
Duan Yunming has been practicing diligently for many years, and no one in Xuanyuan Mountain has a verbal argument with him. But Tang Yue has been practicing argumentation for many years. He has quick reactions and has no problem at all with swearing.
"You could have told me clearly just now, instead of insulting me and deepening my misunderstanding." Duan Yunming still wanted to quibble, and in his heart he didn't want to believe that this bullying Tang family's legitimate daughter was actually a real person.
Can come in handy.
They were all very surprised. They were just looking at the dolls, so why did they start arguing?
Miss Tang said that Duan Yunming had bad moral character, which sounded reasonable. The people in the team unconsciously stayed away from Duan Yunming...
Duan Yunming's face turned pale, and everyone around him was shocked. Why did he talk about such a serious matter? Monks are very concerned about their own cause and effect. The higher their cultivation level, the easier it is to fall into metaphysics.
Duan Yunming's face turned red again. He was very embarrassed. His speculation was far from the truth, and he had slandered the person who really wanted to save the victim.
Tang Yue's anger suddenly rose, "Is it me who wants to do something? Didn't you do something to me first? I was just completing the task well, how come you are so confident when you harm others?"
Duan Yunming saw that everyone was avoiding him, and finally he could speak, "You, you are so bloody, I want to..."
"Fellow Taoist of Xuanyuan Mountain, what are you talking about? Do you know this? You wouldn't be able to say such nonsense unless you are sick."
Tang Yue said, "If an apology is useful, what do you want the city guard to do?" She could see clearly that this person was just trying to apologize and was not happy in his heart, so she would be cruel to herself by forgiving this person.
Duan Yunming laughed angrily, but calmed down and apologized to Tang Yue: "Junior sister Tang, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you, so I made some inappropriate actions. I hope you can forgive me."
He finally understood that the Young Palace Master of the Shangqing Palace was protecting Tang Yue, and Ji Chongguang was the leader of their operation. There was no benefit in going against Ji Chongguang's opinion. Why not bow your head now and go out later? A gentleman will take revenge.
Ten years is never too late.
Tang Yue sneered. In the original book, Xuanyuan Mountain was able to trap Senior Brother Lu into such a trap. Zixiao Mansion also had Xuanyuan Mountain as its backing when it came to opposing her mother. This faction was not a good thing, so she wanted to scold him.
Duan Yunming thought to himself, why did Senior Brother Lu and Palace Master Ji miss such a unruly woman and treat her so well.
Tang Yue felt that this man's face was pale and blood-red for a while, and he might have a bad heart.
Upright disciples all follow the right path, practice day and night, have a pure mind, and hate dealing with such villains the most.
"You actually, I'm not..." Duan Yunming was anxious again and couldn't even speak a complete sentence.
Tang Yue is already biased against Xuanyuan Mountain, not only about Tang Wan and Chu Tianshu, but also about the elder who in the original work forcibly accepted the original owner. It would be better if the Xuanyuan Mountain disciples did not offend her.
You must be prepared to accept ruthless blows.
Seeing Duan Yunming's face turn red, Tang Yue continued, "I hope fellow Taoist Duan can learn etiquette and understand some truths. You and I are just strangers meeting for the first time today. Before this, I didn't know who you were. Our family and
The person named Duan has no grudges, but you saw me for the first time today and wanted to harm me on the ladder to heaven. It’s just that your skills are not as good as others. If you fail to harm others, you will be harmed instead, so you fall down."
Ji Chongguang raised his hand and stopped Duan Yunming before he said anything about a duel, "Let me explain why this puppet attacked Junior Sister Tang. This matter is related to our mission, not because she provoked her enemies."
Tang Yue said this, which was tantamount to rubbing Duan Yunming's bad luck in public.
Duan Yunming didn't understand at first, but it took him a while to realize that it was Tang Yue who was scolding him for being sick and said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense about?"
"What's wrong with me? You should reflect on yourself and not be a person with bad character. You don't know why all day long, you are narrow-minded, and you want to poison others for no reason. In this way, who dares to get close to you? I have three words for you,
This is the retribution in this world. Just on the ladder to heaven is the retribution after you harmed others. Be careful about your evil virtues and blessings."
"you!"
That puppet really might have been sent by the murderer behind the scenes.
In fact, Ji Chongguang had known Tang Yue for a while and knew that she would never argue for no reason. It was usually because the other party was going too far, or because she wanted to achieve some goal.
And in his eyes, everything Tang Yue did was right, and he just had to stand by her side.
Duan Yunming could only hold up his hands and said softly: "Miss Tang, I'm sorry, I was wrong. What compensation do you want me to make?"
Tang Yue calmed down a little, "That's pretty much it. Let's do this. After you go out, you formally visit my Wuji Mountain Villa and apologize to me. This will be considered sincere. After all, I was almost killed by you. This is a little more demanding.
