No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 230 Unexpected
On the way down the mountain.

Ouyang Rong sighed helplessly, turned around and said:
"Don't worry, I won't leave without saying goodbye again. Besides, your knife is still with me, so I have to return it to you."

He lightly patted the skirt knife on his waist with the palm of his hand as a gesture.

"Well, even...even if I have to leave, I will definitely tell you, I promise. But let's settle the matter in front of us now."

Xie Lingjiang glanced at him.

Ouyang Rong gently pushed Xie Lingjiang's arm, trying to soften his voice, and coaxed him.

"Hey, can you be more emotional, what's the big deal, look up and smile, relax..."

Xie Lingjiang immediately raised his head and wrinkled Xiao Qiong's nose:

"I'm not worried about this, big brother, don't treat me like a child, of course I know that big brother won't leave without saying goodbye, of course I know that the matter is the top priority..."

Speaking of this, the little girl in red who was haggard and looking for him last night, who was looking for him thousands of times in the crowd, paused, turned her pretty face away, stuck out a little finger under her sleeve, and couldn't help whispering: "You swear."

Ouyang Rong: ...

Well, you're not a kid, but you're not much older, except for development.

When someone was speechless, Xie Lingjiang blushed slightly, retracted her little finger sleeve, and hurriedly explained:
"I just want to say, senior brother, be careful of Liu Zian and the Liu family!"

"What do you mean?"

Xie Lingjiang nodded, his face turned serious:

"The female fairy Yucheng confessed that she taught Liu Zi'an a set of her own master's qi refining technique in private.

"According to her, the inheritance of the teacher's school comes from overseas fairy mountains, and it belongs to the Taoist lineage of the alchemist. It is one of the branches. The method of refining qi and the conditions for promotion are very strange."

Ouyang Rong nodded, calmly, and agreed:
"Strange, yes, for example, the bronze mask is quite evil, what is it called..."

Xie Lingjiang didn't notice anything wrong with someone, so he continued:

"The mask of the mirage beast. This thing is compatible with the promotion method of this alchemist's path.

"This method of promotion requires killing living people with spirituality in public and performing sacrifices. The more special the identity and bloodline, the better, and the more audiences, the better. In this way, you can get a substantial improvement in your cultivation base, or increase your rank."

At this moment, the two have not yet separated, and they are rushing down the mountain together at high speed.

When Ouyang Rong heard this, he frowned and turned around: "Sacrificing living people? Special? For example?"

"For example, senior brother." Xie Lingjiang squinted his eyes and said in a bad tone, "The fairy Yucheng said that she did it secretly when senior brother drowned in public."

Ouyang Rong pursed his lips, then suddenly turned around and asked:
"Wait, I'm very curious. Why on earth did Fairy Yuxi want to help Liu Zian and the Liu family in this way? She even handed over her master's qi refining technique. Is it just to cling to the Liu family to gain some glory and wealth?"

Xie Lingjiang clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said:
"This Liu family once promised that after the success of the sword, they would hand over Uncle Li's family to Fairy Yucheng to offer sacrifices. Uncle Li's family has a special bloodline and a noble status, which is very suitable for the sacrifice of Fairy Yucheng. Require.

"Furthermore, the Liu family also promised to Fairy Yucheng that after the matter is completed, there will be more cooperation in the future to help her find sacrifices."

"Wait." Ouyang Rong interrupted: "Something is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

Ouyang Rong calmly pointed out:
"Where did the Liu family have the guts to move Lixian's family? Even if they forged a tripod sword for Wei Shi, there is no need to move Lixian's family.

"This is not calling for a certificate of honor. This is asking for trouble. The Liu family is a speculator. They only want to fight for wealth. There is no need to offend the Baoli faction like this. Just enjoy the glorious reward of offering the tripod sword."

"It makes sense." Xie Lingjiang hesitated to speak, "Then what does senior brother mean?"

Ouyang Rong was silent for a moment, then quickly turned his head:
"No way, Junior Sister, hurry back to the Su Mansion on Luming Street and protect Li Xian's family!"

Xie Lingjiang: "Why?"

"The Liu family dared to do something to the deposed Xunyang Wang Lixian's family, and dared to promise others, the Liu family must have Wei's backing, and the Liu family dared to do this. This is because the Wei family has murderous intentions! To carry the power of the tripod sword, Cut the weeds and root them out!"

Ouyang Rong nodded calmly:
"There is still one or two hours before the sword washing is completed at noon.

"If I fail to prevent it, and the tripod sword is finally cast, the Wei family and the Liu family will definitely attack the Li Xian family.

"If it succeeds, it's hard to say if the Cauldron Sword hasn't been forged. Will someone jump over the wall in a hurry, especially if Liu Zian has also practiced a special qi refining technique, the risk of taking risks is not small.

"Little Junior Sister, hurry back and stay with Li Xian's family. It's best to transfer them to Dagu Donglin Temple in advance. We will divide into two groups."

At this time, the two just arrived at the blinding pavilion halfway up the mountain.

Xie Lingjiang stopped when she heard the words, frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and glanced at Ouyang Rong, she reached out and took out a pure white jade ring with a deer-shaped pattern engraved on it from her sleeve.

Xie Lingjiang bowed his head, walked into the masking pavilion, came to a place with a wide view, and sent spiritual energy silently.

Without turning her head, she explained to Ouyang Rong who was behind him with a curious face:
"Before I left Longcheng County to go to Longhu Mountain to seek alchemy, passing through Jiangzhou City, my father learned that I had something to leave Longcheng, and it happened that another master uncle from Bailudong Academy was passing by Xunyangdu.

"So my father asked this uncle surnamed Chen to come to Longcheng County. When I was away, I secretly took care of Uncle Li's family... I came back in a hurry yesterday and forgot to catch up. I will contact Uncle Chen now.

"This Uncle Chen, I know him. He is dedicated to his duties and has a strong vigilance. He should still be at the Su residence."

Inside the pavilion, Xie Lingjiang held a jade ring in the shape of a deer, rested a little, and a faint blue light appeared on the gentle jade body.

The surrounding mountain wind stopped suddenly, and there was a gust of breeze blowing by, and I didn't know where it was going.

There is also a book-turner in the pavilion.

"Uncle Chen?"

Ouyang Rong glanced down.

The jade ring in the junior sister's hand was carved with a pattern of white deer, which looked familiar to him.

In my memory, I saw it on some buildings of Bailudong Academy when I was studying.

But it was just normal at the time.

Come to think of it, most of the Confucian academies in the world are still students who are unable to practice qi, and the spread of qi training is not widespread, and the threshold is extremely high.

Just like Ouyang Rong, he had a leaky body before, unable to practice Qi, and had no such contact, even if he was a reading seed to win glory for the academy.

And Confucianism is still regarded as the world's top sect in the mouths of qi trainers, and it can be regarded as a great hermit in the city.

Ouyang Rong guessed that this deer-shaped jade ring should be worn by every qi trainer from Bailudong Academy.

And looking at the squinting and frowning appearance of the little junior sister, it seems that she can use this to connect with the same sect?I don't know if there is a distance limit...

Ouyang Rong put away his thoughts and asked aloud:

"Well, what's the situation over there?"

The little junior sister stood still for a while, then turned her face, with a puzzled frown:
"No response, no sound... What's going on? Could it be that Uncle Chen left Longcheng County silently after seeing me coming back, and isn't at the Su Mansion now?"

Ouyang Rong was silent and no one answered.

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other tacitly.

Xie Lingjiang took a deep breath.

Ouyang Rong looked surprisingly serious:

"Junior sister, hurry up, don't forget your original duty in Longcheng County."

"Big Brother."

"I also have my responsibilities. When you go back to Luming Street, remember to stop by and notify the county government colleagues for me, saying that I will be there soon."

Xie Lingjiang nodded heavily, turned around, and left quickly.

"Elder brother, take care! Be sure to pay attention to safety, if there is any danger, please contact me.

"If Uncle Li and the others are fine, after I move them to a safe location, I'll go find you right away!"

Ouyang Rong nodded and said, "Go, I'll wait for you."

A gust of breeze blew by, and Xie Lingjiang's figure disappeared in place, and flew away like a frightened bird, riding away from the dust.

Sure enough, just to accommodate his speed.

Ouyang Rong sighed and shook his head, watching her back completely go away.

He continued to run wildly down the mountain, and occasionally when he supported his knees to pant, he rubbed his face and murmured to himself:
"Rush to the opening ceremony of the Zheyi Canal first, summon Diao Xiancheng and the others, and then take a boat back to Longcheng to organize the people to evacuate..."

Ouyang Rong only hated his own pair of fleshy legs for running too slowly, and hated that he didn't have enough time. Why do you think monks all over the world like to build temples on wild mountains?
Finally, Ouyang Rong seemed to have arrived at the archway at the foot of the mountain, and was about to look for a carriage to requisition. As a result, on the official road ahead, a large group of dark figures rushed over, and the leader was very familiar.

His face was stunned: "Liulang, why are you here? You are..."

Yan Liulang and a group of policemen are leading a large number of Longcheng people to rush there.

The crowd of people was orderly, as if they were going to a market, they came to Dagu Mountain to take refuge with ease.

"Mingfu!" Seeing Ouyang Rong standing in the middle of the road, Yan Liulang blurted out.

"You... are you all ready?"

Ouyang Rong stretched out his head to look at the people behind Yan Liulang who were carrying various supplies such as large bags and small bags to salute and go up the mountain.

He suddenly felt that he seemed to be worrying blindly.

Yan Liulang's expression was pleasantly surprised, but then, his expression was complicated, and he hesitated to speak.

And the police officials in the crowd behind them, when they saw Ouyang Rong, most of them showed surprised expressions, and they seemed a little confused.

Many people even turned their heads in surprise, looking in the direction of the Longcheng County Government.

"Why is the county magistrate ahead of us? Obviously we are the first batch..." Someone muttered.

Ouyang Rong paused.
