After briefly introducing the courtyard, Qin Chengyi turned around and looked at Li Yan and the others seriously, "Qin took note of what several fellow Taoists just said. Since everyone firmly believes that he is not the murderer, then you can rest assured." I will stay here for one night. When Master comes back tomorrow, I will give you justice. However, I still want to remind you to rest well in your room and do not wander around. I think you all know the background of Xuanqing Temple very well. , the only thing that can be used is the formations. There are formations here. As long as you leave this courtyard, your safety cannot be guaranteed. These formations were set up by the ancestor of Yuanying. Once triggered, it will be. It is difficult for the Golden Core cultivator to escape, or he will be killed instantly. Please remember! Okay, you can each choose a room." After that, he made a gesture with one hand and turned around to leave.
After Qin Chengyi left, the five people in the courtyard also looked at each other. After the two men in black robes glanced at Li Yan, they turned their eyes on the young man in purple robes and said hehe. With a strange laugh, they turned around and walked towards the house. Then they chose a room and closed the door. The young man in purple shirt in the courtyard was stared at by the man in black robe with the sinister eyes, and he was a little stunned and didn't move. The hunchbacked old man looked at the room of the man in black robe somewhat blankly.
Li Yan's eyes flashed for a few times. He felt that when the two men in black robes finally looked at the young man in purple robes, they seemed to have murderous intent. The young man in purple robes' expression obviously changed a few times at that time. Then it returned to normal.
He shook his head slightly and didn't worry about it. Since it was a show, he should do it for a longer time. He couldn't bring out the Demon Sect just a little bit unsatisfactory, so he had to wait all night. He thought of this in his heart. Being irritated, haste makes waste. Then he showed a hesitant expression on his face, looked around, and walked towards the room at the far right corner.
As Li Yan left, the young man in purple robes in the courtyard seemed to be awakened. His eyes swept over the room of the two men in black robes, and an old voice suddenly came from his mind: "Young Master. "It's useless to worry." The young man in purple turned pale, gritted his teeth, and walked directly to a room, but this room was next to Li Yan, separated by a few rooms from the two men in black. Master and servant were not separated.
After Li Yan entered the room, his consciousness sensed the surroundings, and then his facial expression returned to normal. He looked around and found that the layout of the room was almost the same as the side room he went to when waiting for the teleportation. , but there were faint spiritual fluctuations on the walls of the room. After Li Yan's spiritual consciousness scanned it, he found that it was emitted from the spiritual stones hidden in the spiritual stone slots in the wall. There was indeed a set of formations here.
There is also a chair and a table under the wall window opposite the door. There is a square bronze token on the table, which is obviously used to activate the formation ban in the room. At this moment, there are three triangles arranged in the middle of the roof. The luminous pearl was emitting soft white light. Li Yan knew that this kind of luminous pearl was not the common luminous pearl composed of spar in the world. It was the core of a sea shell monster. This monster had delicious meat and defensive shells. Extremely strong and does not like to take the initiativeAttacking other creatures, its core has no medicinal value after crystallization, but every time the light is dim, as the density of the surrounding darkness increases, it will become brighter and brighter. Therefore, it is often hunted by some monks, and its meat is occasionally satisfying. In order to satisfy the appetite, the core is used as the lighting of the cave. Often a core will be damaged on its own after being used for twenty or thirty years, so it is deeply loved by some monks.
Li Yan flicked his robe sleeves, and the door closed quietly behind him. He did not immediately activate the ban in the room, nor did he take out the formation flag and put on the formation. Instead, he walked to the table and opened the large window first. A gust of breeze came in through the window, making Li Yan feel refreshed and his mind was refreshed. He seemed to be much more awake. Just as he expected, the window outside was also close to the shore of the lotus pond. At this time, night had fallen, and the stars in the sky were like weaving, twinkling like a dream, like the huge moon of the Desolate Moon Continent. The moon has also gradually risen. Although it still seems to be on the horizon of distant mountains, the white and red lotus flowers in the pond can already be seen clearly.
Li Yan pulled out the chair and sat down. The window was wide open. He could see the houses along the shore of the lotus pond, surrounding them in a semi-arc shape. Some rooms were lit up with white light. , but some rooms were completely dark. Li Yan knew that the dark rooms should have activated the formation restriction, covering everything inside. Some of the windows in the rooms that were lit up with white light were open, and there were occasional shadows moving in the room. It was obvious that these were monks who had not yet entered cultivation. They also did not activate the formation, but opened the windows to enjoy the lotus fragrance and blue waves in the night breeze. Li Yan actually saw someone he knew in these windows. The person was sitting in front of the window just like Li Yan, leaning on the table. He was holding a bottle of wine in his hand. He took an occasional sip and seemed to be thinking about things. Qin Chengyi, who had arranged a room for them before.
Li Yan looked away. He could guess what Qin Chengyi was thinking. The murderer had not been caught for a day, so he and Na Luo Sanpang were the most suspects. He probably had no intention of practicing at this time. .
Thinking of this, Li Yan suddenly thought, "The young man in purple shirt also saw the clue, but didn't the record say that the thing was extinct? How could it appear here by such a coincidence? If it is something similar, both the attack method and the result are very similar to what is recorded in the classics. Where did the young man in purple shirt come from? Even if the record of this thing is from the Demon Sect, I am only in one. After seeing a brief introduction on the broken jade slip, he actually said it.
And, how was this thing put in? ”
That’s all he said. He started to think about it in a daze, and when he looked out of the window, he was staring blankly at a certain place in the lotus pond.
He had been like this for a long time. Even Qin Chengyi, who was holding a wine bottle, occasionally looked out the window and noticed Li Yan's stunned expression. He had arranged this courtyard. The cultivator's eyesight was very good, and he could tell at a glance that it was the Blood Leaf Sect cultivator who was alone.
Qin Chengyi couldn't help but said, "I am scared, and I have no intention of practicing. I am probably thinking about how to get out of here." Then his eyes moved again.Looking at the other five rooms, there were only two with white light shining through the closed windows. It was obvious that the remaining three dark rooms were occupied by people and had been protected by formations.
Next door to Li Yan, the young man in purple shirt was also sitting on a chair by the window, while the hunchbacked old man stood respectfully aside. The protective formation in the room was already activated.
"Master, it's okay to speak now. The old slave has deployed two more formations, one to enhance the defense of the original formation, and one to attack the formation." The hunchbacked old man's voice was low in the room. It sounded, but it was no longer a sound transmission.
"Uncle Sang, how sure are you?" The young man in purple shirt looked back at the wood grain on the table, took a breath, and turned to look at the hunchbacked old man.
"At least 70%, it seems that these two people are the ones, but it is safe here. They dare not do anything in Xuanqing Temple openly, so I considered not leaving in the afternoon Well, it’s better to look for an opportunity and make another plan,” the hunchbacked old man called Uncle Sang said in a low voice.
"Uncle Sang, if we take out the token at that time, maybe we can leave. Although our identities are exposed, those two people may not be able to leave. How can Xuan Qingguan let go so easily? People who don’t know the truth are walking away.” The young man in purple still felt that he should give it a try in the afternoon.

"Now we are only 70% sure that the other party is the person following. What if he is not? Maybe the two of them are the evil cultivators who robbed wealth? We can't bet. Without the family, Master, your identity will be It cannot be exposed, otherwise the danger will be at least several times higher, or even higher." Uncle Sang sighed. He was a cautious person and had seen countless storms in his life, and the dangers among them were clear.
"The Taoist priest Xuan Qing Guan died, was it the two of them who did it? This will slow us down. They are waiting for more backup to arrive." The young man in purple shirt said worriedly .
After a moment of silence, Uncle Sang spoke again in a low voice, "Master, did you see the cause of the Taoist priest's death this afternoon?"
"The foundation-building monks there have too much spiritual consciousness to help. I carefully identified the wound, but I was 60-70% sure. However, after thinking for a long time, I still couldn't figure out how someone put this thing in. You must know that if this thing touches it, it will die immediately. If you wrap it with spiritual power and hold it, it will It erodes the spiritual power and goes straight into the meridians. If this problem cannot be solved, it is not caused by this thing, so I think it is different." The young man in purple frowned. He had been thinking about this problem for a few times. For an hour, I had no clue.
Looking at the young man's appearance, Uncle Sang couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Maybe only the young master is so persistent and can practice the "Ghost Poison Scroll" to the fourth level at such a young age. This time he gave it up. This old fate also requires that the young master be returned to the clan safely.
Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of Li Yan, interrupting the young man in purple shirt's thinking, "Master, the young man in green shirt who had been silent seemed to know about this thing. Although he acted a little frightened, , but you unintentionally whispered in the afternoonIt happened to be heard by a few people, but the others didn't know anything about it. They just glanced at you, but the young man in green shirt looked at you with a different look. And since this person appeared, I There is a very dangerous feeling, which even exceeds the reaction to those foundation-building monks. I always feel that he is not as timid as he appears, but his cultivation is only at the late tenth level of the Qi Condensation Stage. Even with some advanced aura-concealing methods, Lao Nu's confidence can be seen, unless he possesses superb skills. " He said this with a solemn look on his face.
"Oh? Are you talking about the person next door? Is this person also a master of poison? It's just that the name of this thing is rarely known. Maybe it has a very deep origin. "After hearing this, the young man in purple shirt showed interest in his eyes. He always has a sense of intimacy towards people of the same kind.
"I can't tell how he would be willing to be accepted if he has a very deep background. Being trapped in this second-rate sect, what I mean by saying this is to let the young master not lose his guard just because the other person is a Qi Condensation Stage monk. We also need to be careful about this person. "
The young man in purple shirt nodded when he heard the words, and the room fell into silence for a while. The young man in purple shirt's thoughts quickly returned to the murder during the day.
How How can we leave here quietly? Uncle Sang thought about it, and finally a cold light flashed in his eyes, "I can't help but make this place more chaotic." "Fish in troubled waters, maybe you can take advantage of the opportunity.
In another room in the courtyard, the same protective formation has been activated, which prevents outsiders from eavesdropping from a distance. Two men in black robes have gathered together. .
“Brother, are you really going to do something soon? "A man in black robe said in a low voice.
"So what, the worst thing is that we can explain it clearly at that time. If we delay it any longer, I don't know who will come tomorrow? "Another man in black robe said grimly.
"Brother, I'm afraid more people will die by then. "The younger brother said.
"So what, once you succeed, the rewards you will receive will mean that my brothers will not have to worry about the remaining hundred years of cultivation resources. The old Jindan Dao will only be back tomorrow night. With my brother There should be no problem for the magic weapon that the two people obtained from the woman last time to break the restriction on the formation. Although this Xuanqing Observation Formation was arranged by an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage, the amount of spiritual stones consumed each time it is activated is also staggering. You When are they really all turned on? We just opened the mountain gate protective formation. After that, we sneaked to the mountain gate. As long as we broke the mountain gate protective formation and escaped at night, where would they find it? "The black-robed brother said slowly.
Hearing what his brother said, the younger brother among the black-robed monks couldn't help but think of the scene of the woman's plump, snow-white body twisting and resisting under the two of them. He couldn't help but feel warm. "Hey, although this magic weapon is a remnant, it is really good at breaking the restrictions of formations. Otherwise, we really couldn't get out of the ghost fog in the forest last time, and we would be like 'Wind Chime'." Several people died inside like that. ”
"The origin of this magic weapon is unknown. The ability to break the restriction of the formation is already unbelievable. Not only the forest ghost mist, but also the time when the 'Shen Tou King' teamed up with four foundation-building monks to set up the formation, he led me When the two of them entered, if this treasure hadn't directly broken the formation, the five of them had never dreamed that the formation was like paper, and we would have died there without having time to catch up. It is estimated that there are many secrets in this magic weapon. After returning this time and receiving the reward, you and I will find a secluded place to retreat, and we will thoroughly understand the secrets of this magic weapon."
He said this as if to give up. When the younger brother heard this, he was actually cheering himself up. After all, the Xuanqing Formation Observation Technique was famous, and he was not sure whether he could really break the formation here, and the Golden Pill Ancestor might come back early.
Next, the two began to discuss secretly in a low voice.
