TaiHao

Mashan City was very lively, and the sequelae of the plague a year ago could not be seen at all. After the high priest reprimanded Teng Mulian, Jiang Yuanchen and the others followed Teng Mulian around the city.

And Nangong Mu has begun to eat from the street to the end of the street. It seems that the food in the city suits his taste.

"The snacks in the city are pretty good. Fried scorpions, crispy centipedes, and spicy bullfrogs all taste pretty good. Do you guys want to try them?" Nangong Mu's mouth was full of oil after eating, and he held out a snake meat skewer to Lin Zixuan.

"No, you can eat it slowly." Lin Zixuan just tasted it and immediately felt that it was very different from his own taste. Seeing that Nangong Mu still wanted to treat him to food, he immediately declined politely.

After all, Jiang Yuanchen looked around at each stall with a smile on his face, as if he had noticed something.

"By the way, Mu Lian, you seem to have a Shadow Wind Valley here, right?" Lin Zixuan quickly changed the topic.

"There is one, what's wrong?" Tengmu Lian also took a bunch of chicken wings from Nangong Mu's hand and turned to ask.

"Then can you send someone to take us two to the Dark Wind Valley? We need a Black Wind Yin Bone."

"Heifeng Yin Bone?" Tengmu Lian was stunned: "Don't bother me. I remember there should be a few more in the warehouse. If you want to use it, I will take you to get it later."

Tengmu Lian was very generous and took the three of them directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

"My parents died three years ago. I, the last descendant of the Teng clan, should have been in charge of the city lord's palace. However, because I am not yet an adult, I had to let the high priest and several mountain elders help me handle the affairs. Go to the warehouse to get it. I also need to discuss things with You Li.”

You Li is the name of the high priest. He is only a few years older than Teng Mulian. He grew up with Teng Mulian and was like his older brother.

When Teng Mulian went to find You Li, You Li happened to prepare a pot of witch medicine.

"It's time to drink the medicine." You Li handed a cup of blue-black witch medicine to Teng Mulian.

Teng Mulian frowned and drank the witchcraft medicine in one go. Jiang Yuanchen sniffed and smelled the rancid smell in the witch medicine, and used his sleeves to cover it up.

"Witch medicine is no better than the Chinese elixir, and the little tricks make the immortal master laugh." You Li said coldly when he saw Jiang Yuanchen's little moves.

For Yanzhou in Southern Xinjiang, the so-called Zhongtu refers to the collective name of the five states of Zhongzhou, Lingzhou, Yunzhou, Qingzhou and Yizhou. These are the areas where the true immortality is cultivated.

"The lineage of ancient witches is mysterious and unpredictable. They have their own merits and differences with my heavenly sect. The high priest does not need to be humble." Jiang Yuanchen smiled apologetically and stopped talking. Instead, he secretly used the river diagram to analyze the bowl of medicine in Teng Mulian's hand. It seems that some drugs in it are very poisonous?

"During this period, I often have nightmares. Sometimes I still have blank memories when I think about the past. You can help me make some witch potions." Tengmu Lian put down the wooden bowl and said bluntly to You Li.

Fujimu Lian is the future helmsman of Mashan City, but he is still underage, so he is called the "Young Master". But in many cases, his words are imperial edicts, and he can order anyone in the city.

"I understand." You Li responded: "Young Master, why do you want to come to me?"

"Go and get the key to the warehouse. I want to select a few things from it to thank the savior."

You Li frowned and stopped mixing his witch medicine, but stared at Jiang Yuanchen.

Jiang Yuanchen blinked and stared at You Li. You Li is very young and looks to be about the same age as Nangong Mu. Perhaps due to practicing witchcraft for many years, his skin is pale and he has a kind of morbid beauty.

You Li pointed his witch wand at the wall next to him, and a hidden grid appeared. A bronze key fell into Teng Mu Lian's hand.

"Since I am the young master's savior, I naturally have to express my gratitude. However, my family in Mashan City has long been living in seclusion. Please leave the three of you as soon as possible tomorrow morning." In one sentence, You Li issued an eviction order.

Nangong Mu frowned, and when he was about to speak, Lin Zixuan stopped him: "Don't worry, High Priest, the three of us have important matters, and it's inconvenient to stay here for a long time."

With that said, the three of them followed Teng Mulian to the warehouse to collect materials.

"Mu Lian, you have a good relationship with High Priest You Li? Why do you even give him the keys to the warehouse?" Nangong Mu had a straight temper and asked directly: "Aren't you afraid that he has any bad intentions?"

"You Li grew up with me. He is like my brother, and his character is trustworthy. After the plague, I often recuperated in the hospital bed, and it was he who took care of the affairs of the city." Tengmu Lian told the three of them. After looking at the overview of Mashan Castle, we arrived at the warehouse.

"This warehouse has been witchcrafted by You Li and is isolated on another level of space. It can only be opened with the help of a key." Use the key on the door, and the entire door will stir, and then automatically open a passage to both sides for the four parties to see. People walk into the warehouse.

"Ahem." As soon as he entered the warehouse, there was a burst of dust.

"No one has come into this warehouse for many years." Nangong Mu said, covering his nose.

"It's been a long time. The last time I came in seemed to be three months ago, no, six months ago?" Tengmu Lian murmured, but couldn't remember it anymore, so he could only laugh at himself: "I have been too forgetful during this period. , seems to have come in not long ago.”

Tengmu Lian rummaged around on a shelf in the warehouse for a while, then took out a wooden box and handed it to Jiang Yuanchen: "There are three five-hundred-year-old black wind bones here, which should be enough for you, right?"

Jiang Yuanchen opened it and saw two black spiritual bones quietly placed in the box. In addition, there was a pool of bone powder under the two black bones.

"Only two pieces? And the quality seems to be very good." Jiang Yuanchen held a piece of spiritual bone and looked at it. There were not three natural wind holes on it, but seven holes.

Jiang Yuanchen blew gently into the wind hole, and a harsh soul-chasing sound sounded, shocking the other three people.

"Seven holes, this is a thousand-year-old spiritual object, right? Even treasures can be made." Lin Zixuan took it over and took a look, and couldn't help but change his expression. There were also four wind holes on the other spiritual bone, which was rare. Years of six or seven hundred years.

"Could it be that these three black wind Yin bones were fighting in the box, and the Yin wind origin of the third spiritual bone was absorbed by these two pieces?" Nangong Mu said jokingly.

But seeing the serious expressions on Jiang Yuanchen and Lin Zixuan's faces, Nangong Mu was stunned: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"

"I'm afraid that's what happened." Jiang Yuanchen closed the jade box and said, "Mu Lian, these two pieces are too valuable. You should keep this thousand-year-old Yin bone." The Yin energy of one black bone was absorbed by the other two. Bone resorption, this little Yin Qi shouldn't be enough to upgrade it to a thousand-year quality, right? Could it be...

"Forget it, you should just take it away!" Tengmu Lian rubbed his forehead. The strange sound just now made him still a little dizzy. "In addition, you can choose a few things, as long as you can help me cure my frailty."

"Cure? Don't you have witch medicine? If I intervene, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the high priest to explain." Witch medicine and elixir are two different paths, and they are bound to conflict with each other.

Tengmu Lian looked around and then said: "I always feel that there is something wrong with those witch medicines. It seems that they are not just for treating my illness." Teng Mu Lian grew up with You Li. Although he has not studied witch medicine at all, But beside You Li, he also understood some general ideas. The witch medicine You Li gave him seemed to have some other effects.

"If the eldest brother of the Jiang family helps me find out the situation, how about I send a few more things from the warehouse?"

Jiang Yuanchen stretched out his hand to touch Teng Mulian's wrist and took a closer look at his pulse. Jiang Yuanchen's expression turned strange.

Then, he directly put his head against Teng Mulian's forehead, and his eyebrows touched each other, sensing Teng Mulian's current situation.

After a while, Jiang Yuanchen put down Teng Mulian he was holding: "I almost understand the situation. I will give you an explanation before I leave tomorrow."

While Jiang Yuanchen was checking the situation, Lin Zixuan searched everywhere for materials that caught his eye, and finally his eyes fell on a mushroom in the corner.

Ghost mushroom? Fungi that grow in extremely dark places? Is this warehouse very dark? How come the quality of the Black Wind Yin Bone improved independently, and this kind of thing also grew?

Lin Zixuan picked the mushroom and hid it directly in his sleeve, and then informed Teng Mulian with several materials he had selected.

"It's a pity that Seven-Star Agave was not found, otherwise this mission would have come to an end." Lin Zixuan and others walked out of the warehouse, and Lin Zixuan said to Jiang Yuanchen.

"There is no rush. After helping Xiao Mu kill the Golden Crystal Beast, we will naturally have the opportunity to find the Seven-Star Agave." Jiang Yuanchen thought for a while: "I will go to the city by myself for a while. You two should go back with Mu Lian first."

After saying that, Jiang Yuanchen's figure disappeared from in front of the three people, and a secluded place a hundred feet away just appeared.

"The high priest has followed me all the way, isn't it time to come out?" Jiang Yuanchen said to the empty shadow.

You Li's voice came out: "Outsiders, this is not a place for you to interfere."

"Is there really something wrong with Mu Lian?"

"..."

Seeing that You Li didn't speak, Jiang Yuanchen said again: "I took a look and felt something was wrong. Although you used medicine to cover it up, in fact -"

"Master Immortal, you are from the Middle Earth, so don't get involved in the disputes in southern Xinjiang." You Li's tone was fierce, and a murderous intention directly enveloped Jiang Yuanchen.

Jiang Yuanchen disappeared from the spot again and appeared three feet away, avoiding the murderous intent: "You can't completely control Mashan City. The advantage is not only on your side. You can't kill me, and you can't kill me before you kill me." Before..." Jiang Yuanchen pointed not far away, and Teng Mulian and three others suddenly walked towards this side.

"Let's keep our noses in the water, I'm not that nosy." Jiang Yuanchen said with a smile.

Only You Li and Jiang Yuanchen understood what it meant to lead Teng Mulian and the others here lightly.

"You could tell from the time you entered the city?"

"Yeah, but I was really sure when we were in the warehouse. You are playing a big game." Jiang Yuanchen felt the murderous intention coming back and said quickly: "We will leave immediately tomorrow and ignore the rest?" You Li said. He was worried about Jiang Yuanchen's methods, but why wasn't Jiang Yuanchen worried about You Li? If the totem pole in the center of the city exploded with all its strength, none of Lin Zixuan and the other three would be able to escape unscathed.

"Brother Changming ran fast enough!" Nangong Mu and the others came to Jiang Yuanchen's side, but You Li in the shadow had long disappeared.

"I just thought of something. Come to a secluded place to think about it. It's getting late. Let's go back and rest for the night. Let's leave tomorrow."

The sky was so gray that it was impossible to tell whether it was morning or evening. It's just that Jiang Yuanchen and the other three met Teng Mulian at noon, and after arriving at Mashan City for a long time, it was already dusk.

It was night, and the sky was rendered pitch black. Jiang Yuanchen looked at the dim sky without stars and moon, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"I don't know what kind of formation they set up in Mashan City, but they even covered the moon." Nangong Mu was also looking at the night in the room, and unconsciously thought of this direction.

As for Lin Zixuan, he sat in the room and took out the ghost mushroom and looked at it carefully.

Then he took out a jade plate and crushed the ghost mushroom casually. One of the ghost smoke gradually floated out but was restrained by the jade plate. An image was played back from the jade plate in front of Lin Zixuan.

In the gloomy warehouse of the city lord's palace, Teng Mulian looked at the withered bones at his feet with a gloomy look, and shouted sharply at You Li, who was wrapped in a black robe in front of him: "Did you do all this?"

You Li was silent for a while: "Not bad."

Tengmu Lian tightened his hand and said, "Stop all of this."

You Li sighed softly: "Young Master is tired, let's go back and have a good rest." As soon as the black robe was rolled up, Teng Mulian fell into unconsciousness and swallowed back the rest of his words.

As soon as the light on the jade plate dimmed, the images behind it could no longer be broadcast, but the essence in the ghost mushroom had been completely consumed, and it could no longer be used as a basis to search for past situations.

Lin Zixuan's expression changed drastically. No wonder Teng Mulian kept saying that his memory was incomplete and his feelings were deliberately erased?

Lin Zixuan did not dare to neglect, and quickly came to where Jiang Yuanchen was and informed him of the situation.

Jiang Yuanchen thought for a while and then said: "We are leaving tomorrow. Senior brother, do you mean that we help Teng Mulian expose this matter?"

"Shouldn't it be right? Since You Li has the idea of ​​usurping power, Mu Lian's life is in danger."

"You Li dare not kill Mu Lian." Jiang Yuanchen shook his head: "The totem pole is dedicated to the ancestors of the Teng family. After his father's death, Teng Mu Lian established a new blood contract with the totem pole. If You Li cuts off the Teng family, If there is a pulse, then the entire Mashan City will lose the blessing of the totem pole."

"So junior brother wants to ignore it?"

"I have this idea." Jiang Yuanchen hesitated to speak, but seeing the upright look on his senior brother's face, he didn't know how to start.

…

Not far from Mashan City, a firebird was flying in the sky. A girl sat on the back of the firebird to search for Nangong Mu and his party.

"Brother Nangong and the others must not cause any problems, otherwise not only will Brother Nangong's life be in danger, but the two Taixu Dao Sect disciples will also be involved."

Yi Wangdian gave him the wrong map and used the map from two years ago to kill members of the Taixu Dao Sect. If this matter spreads out, the Dao Sect will definitely investigate.

Could it be that Yiwangdian deliberately prepared to kill people and silence them? As for the disciple who died at the same time, God knows if he is really dead. Who knows if he changes his appearance and starts over again.

"Sister, are you really looking for someone?" The girl searched for a long time. When she stopped to rest, she suddenly heard a voice behind her.

"Who!" the girl yelled, and whipped out a whip!

The figure of the woman in the goose-yellow skirt disappeared immediately, and appeared on the other side of the girl using the earth escape method: "We all have the same purpose, don't you want to listen to me? Your brother Nangong is in a bad situation right now."

After all, the girl is the granddaughter of the master of Yiwang Palace, and she usually follows the instructions of the master. Although the girl has a bit of a delicate temperament, she does not dare to be vague in the face of such a big event: "What do you mean?"

"The three of them are in Mashan City now." The woman in the yellow dress chuckled: "I heard that Mashan City was covered up by someone using a spell for a year, and the three of them may have been caught up in it."

"Mashan City?" A puzzled look flashed in the girl's eyes and she asked, "Do you know how to get to Mashan City?"

"Well, sister, I will go in with you." The woman in the goose-yellow skirt saw the wary look on the girl in red's face and said with a smile: "I come from Lingzhou, and there is a person there who is destined to me."

Lingzhou, Taixu Taoist Sect, the girl thought about it and nodded: "If we are saving people, then please ask my sister to lead the way."
