No words to say.
No one had anything to say.
Qian Que could clearly see a dense mass of words of all sizes on the beautiful face in front of him. No matter whether he read it horizontally or vertically, there was only one way to read it, which was -
Shameless!
Compared with her ruthless behavior of cheating others, Qian Que felt that his previous intention to cheat the Jianzhu Sect to get rid of the hatred was nothing, this person was simply blatantly trying to cheat the Jianzhu Sect!
Second generation rich!
He is really a second-generation rich!
Qian Que's opinion of Jianchou became even higher. Anyone who could cheat the Jianzhu Sect so openly and fearlessly must be either very strong or have a powerful backer.
There is no doubt that the person in front of him is the latter.
After staring at Jianchou for a long time, Qian Que wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, touched his chest, and sighed: "My dear, fellow Taoist, what deep hatred do you have with the Jianzhu Sect?"
Originally, the question about lack of money was just a casual one.
Unexpectedly, Jianchou said as if it was a matter of course, "Does Daoist Qian like the Jianzhu Sect? They are so arrogant and rude. We, the righteous people, should enforce justice on behalf of heaven."
The meaning is very simple and clear: I am standing up for you!
Qian Que was so frightened that his legs went limp and he almost knelt down before this man.
His face turned half green, and he cried, "Fairy, please don't scare me, this is a matter of life and death!"
There are actually people like this in the world!
You mean to stand up for yourself
Either she has a problem with her brain, or she has a very evil heart!
Qian Que still believed that the person in front of him was the latter.
Of course, I was joking when I said "Jianchou", but to be honest, there is some truth to that.
After all, when they were in the killing world, Qian Que told Gu Qingmei to "keep it to yourself" and it sounded so pleasant. From this, Jianchou knew that Qian Que had no bad intentions except that he was greedy for money.
Such people had once been through the red-killing world together. Although they did not know each other's identities, they had quite a good impression of each other.
Jianchou had no grudge against the two female cultivators from the Jianzhu Sect, but when she heard them mention "Senior Sister Xu", she almost immediately thought that it was Xu Lan'er. Then, seeing that their eyes were looking up to the sky, she happened to have the right opportunity, and she really tricked the cultivator named Shang away with just a few words.
Jianchou thought silently that the loss of a male cultivator in the late foundation building stage would not have much impact on the affairs of the two female cultivators.
at most…
It's a bit difficult to do.
But...
Life is difficult, and it is always good to suffer a little.
Jianchou felt that he was really a good person who cared about others.
Seeing Jianchou's expression of extreme satisfaction with what he had done, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill.
This girl looks kind but has a dark heart!
Even Pei Qian, who came from a sect as big as the Northern Territory Yang Sect, was seeing such a person for the first time.
The cultivator in front of him who calls himself "Wuchou" was very low-key at first and seemed nothing special. However, looking closely at his behavior, it was indeed not like he came from an ordinary sect.
His words were extremely calm, elegant and natural, and there was no sign of deception at all.
Even when she mentioned the medicine girl of Baiyue Valley, her tone was unusually calm. When she mentioned Yashan, she did not sing in a natural way like ordinary cultivators, but just narrated objectively and calmly.
You should know...
Even when Pei Qian himself was in the Northern Territory, he would unconsciously exclaim in amazement when hearing people mention Yashan.
This female cultivator in front of me...
Where did it come from
Pei Qian looked at Jianchou and became more and more curious.
Such an unconcealed gaze naturally attracted Jianchou's attention.
She looked back and saw Pei Qian, and immediately raised her eyebrows.
Pei Qian was discovered, but he didn't look embarrassed at all. He smiled casually and said, "Daoyou Wuchou helped that person a lot. You are such a righteous person and you are a role model for us."
"… "
Everyone was speechless.
Qin Lang and Zhou Qingyun couldn't help but look at each other, and they had the same thought in their hearts: they had boarded the wrong ship.
But it's too late now.
Qian Que was no longer able to care about those problems. He glanced at the sky in the direction where Shang Liaofan left and sighed, "Nothing happened, and I didn't see anything. Okay, let's go down to Sheshen Rock. Qian also learned some other information, we will talk about it when we reach the cave entrance."
After saying that, he took the lead and jumped off the cliff.
After Jianchou had tricked everyone, he didn't say anything and jumped off the cliff.
The five people left one after another and rode down from the high Sheshen Rock with the wind.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky.
The light shone obliquely into the cliff. In the first part of the way down, the shape of the rocks below could still be seen, but when halfway through the journey, the world fell into complete darkness.
The light from the magic weapon can only illuminate a few feet in front of you.
Every time Jianchou flew over, he felt that there was a huge beast lurking on the cliff in front of him. The deep and shallow shadows looked particularly ferocious under the fleeting light of the magic weapon.
The further down he went, the louder the whistling of the wind in his ears became.
When my feet touched the hard ground, the strong wind blew on my face, and it felt like I was standing in a storm at the seaside, in the boundless wilderness.
Looking around, there were actually a lot of magical weapons lighting up the area, as if they were all waiting outside the cave.
Not far across from them, they could vaguely see a huge circular cave about ten feet high. It was pitch black inside, but strong winds kept blowing out of the cave. The whistling wind sounds that Jianchou and the others felt came from here.
It really is worthy of being called the Black Wind Cave, a perfect place for body training.
Even though he didn't go in, just standing outside the cave, Jianchou could already feel the power of the black wind inside.
The entire cave has an irregular shape and appears quite smooth at first glance. However, if you look closely, you will find that there are fine scratches on the inner walls of the cave, which are formed by years of wind erosion in the Black Wind Cave.
Qian Que said: "The Black Wind Cave is getting bigger every year, but the stones here are really hard. In the past few years, many people brought the stones here back to refine weapons, but none of them succeeded. I heard that they have no spirituality at all, and will destroy the spirituality of other materials. What a pity..."
As the black wind blows, it is natural that the cave gets bigger every year.
Materials that can withstand the erosion of black wind are naturally good materials.
The Wind-Swallowing Stone that Qian Que needed was also a good thing that could survive such a strong wind.
It can swallow up the black wind and maintain its own existence, which makes it a rather mysterious thing among the Nineteen Continents.
Some time ago, a famous cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage specifically asked for this thing and offered a high price for it. Naturally, since I was short of money, I didn't dare to neglect it.
Jianchou withdrew his gaze from the entrance of the Black Wind Cave, and in the blink of an eye he saw the monks around him.
Qian Que explained: "Don't think that all these people outside are waiting to get in. Some are waiting for people to come out."
"Waiting for someone to come out?"
See sorrow and doubt.
Qian Que chuckled, glanced at Pei Qian inexplicably, and then said, "Wait for someone to come out and rob us."
In an instant, Jianchou understood.
Everyone says that there are treasures in the Black Wind Cave. Even if there are no treasures, there are some rare and strange materials that are considered to be popular items in the Nineteen Continents.
Therefore, there will be some speculators who wait outside for opportunities to come to them. They don’t have to worry about anything themselves. When they see someone coming out and have a better chance of winning, they will go along with him to rob him.
Qian Que is a person who is actually quite capable.
However, even so, he found four people to travel with him, probably to prepare for such a situation.
However, the look Qian Que gave Pei Qian just now seemed to be quite meaningful.
Jianchou naturally knew that Pei Qian was the one with the highest cultivation among them. What if Qian Que got something good in the end, and Pei Qian was tempted by the money and ended up killing him
But after changing his mind, Jianchou came to his senses.
If I'm not sure about the lack of money, I probably wouldn't dare to let this person join me.
Each and every one of them is a tough guy.
Jianchou couldn't help but sigh.
Little did she know that others thought she was a difficult person.
After thinking it over again in his mind, Qian Que felt that this "Wu Chou" and Pei Qian were probably not in the same group. At least he still had many trump cards, so he would not be afraid of them making a move.
Thinking of this, Qian Que sat down directly on the spot, took out a map from his pocket, and spread it in front of him.
A huge deep-sea pearl was held in his hand to illuminate.
"Everyone, please look, this is the map of the Black Wind Cave that Qian got from Zhilinsou not long ago. We will form this formation and go in..."
Zhilinsou is a being like the Nineteen Continents. He often has all kinds of information in his hands, especially maps.
This man liked to travel around the Nineteen Continents. No one knew his real name, and everyone called him "Zhi Lin Sou". He opened a small shop next to Wangjiang Tower and hired several apprentices to run it. Various maps were often placed in the shop for consignment, but he was not there.
The maps that come out of his hands are basically the most complete, except for the secrets of some major sects.
It turned out that Qian Que got this map from Zhi Linsou. It must be the most comprehensive map of the Black Wind Cave.
Jianchou hurried over and looked down.
It was originally said that someone had gone as deep as 500 feet into the Black Wind Cave, but on this map, it was actually drawn up to 1,300 feet!
The shape of the mountain, which looked like an old man collecting herbs with a basket on his back, became blurred, and under the slanting Sheshen Rock was the Black Wind Cave.
The Black Wind Cave is in the shape of a suona, extending downwards in a slope from the bottom of the Herb Picking Peak. The entrance to the Black Wind Cave is wide, but it gets narrower as you go inside. Jianchou looked at the dimensions marked on the map and found that it was only less than ten feet wide, and could only accommodate one person at most.
The first section of the road is marked with "very strong wind".
At the first hundred feet, a symbol of a sharp blade was drawn, with the note "After a hundred feet, the wind will be as strong as a blade peeling your skin."
Five hundred feet away, there was a red flame, with the note "After five hundred feet, the wind will be like fire burning the flesh".
At nine hundred feet, there is an icy shape of a snowflake, with the note "Beyond nine hundred feet, the wind is like frozen blood".
At one thousand three hundred feet, there is a shape of a skull, with the note "My friend stopped and lingered here, unable to move forward. His whole body was exhausted and he had no choice but to turn back. What a pity, what a pity."
Seeing this, Jianchou suddenly felt that the "Human-Device" body-refining method was indeed not something that ordinary people could endure.
Wind Blade, Wind Like Fire, Wind Like Ice...
In the end, the black wind was able to destroy flesh and bones, which was really creepy.
Black wind engraves on the bones, which means that lines will be formed on the bones one by one. If after one thousand three hundred feet, the wind will disappear all the bones in the body, it must be the limit of the fifth level of Black Wind Engraves on the Bones of the "Human Instrument" body refining method.
So…
What's beyond 1,300 feet
Could there be something more terrifying
The four words "regrettable, regrettable" that Zhilinsou wrote at the end only left Jianchou with endless reverie. At the same time, she also became curious: Zhilinsou's friend could actually walk to the 1,300 feet, he must not be an ordinary person.
Everyone who saw this map was shocked.
At the same time, everyone has a new understanding of the power of money.
With so many people outside the Black Wind Caves now, how many of them can come up with such a detailed map
Qian Que was afraid that he would not be able to obtain the Wind-Swallowing Stone before the Black Wind Cave became violently active, so he didn't waste any words and started directly telling them what they should do after entering, including how to form the formation.
With the soundproofing array protecting us from the outside, we don't have to worry about others hearing us.
Everyone had experience in cultivation, and their comprehension was far superior to that of ordinary people. In addition, the formation was simple, so they understood it in a short while, and then decided on some simple things: for example, after Qian Que got enough wind-swallowing stones, the rest of the people could do whatever they wanted, and even if they had their own adventures, it had nothing to do with Qian Que, and everyone could not play dirty tricks on each other in the cave. In other words, if five people travel together and can go deeper, everyone should benefit, so there is no need to worry about it.
This statement exactly suited Jianchou's wishes.
She didn't think that there would be any murder or treasure-stealing among their group.
Firstly, she herself was not such a person, nor did she come for the treasure. Secondly, she saw that Pei Qian, the strongest among the five, was from a well-known family in the Northern Territory and probably would not lower his status to compete with everyone else.
Therefore, their group of five people is considered to be quite safe.
After explaining everything, Qian Que removed the soundproofing formation, walked directly to the Black Wind Cave, and was about to go in.
Unexpectedly, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Fellow Daoist Qian Que, please stay."
Everyone was stunned.
Money is short and you have to turn around.
Jianchou thought the voice sounded familiar and had already made a prediction in his mind. He turned around and saw that it was indeed the two female cultivators from the Jianzhu Sect. The tall and thin one was Zhao Yunbin.
These two disciples of the Candle-Jianzhu Sect seemed to have just come down from above.
But in fact, they came down earlier than Qian Que's group of five.
So, the only explanation is that they went up again.
Pei Qian and the others couldn't help but look back at Jianchou. It was obvious what Jianzhu's men were going to do, so they wanted to know whether this fellow "Wuchou" was guilty or not.
I didn't expect it. It would have been better if I hadn't seen it, but it was shocking when I did.
Jianchou, who was standing behind them, actually looked at the two people from the Jianzhu Sect with concern, without any guilt on his face!
Qian Que saw Zhao Yunbin from the Candle-Jianming Sect walking towards him. Many people around him also noticed this scene and looked over. Immediately, someone recognized the Candle-Jianming Sect and called out.
Zhao Yunbin stopped a few steps in front of Qian Que and looked Qian Que up and down. This time he did not show any contempt as before, but spoke to him with a kind of reluctance.
Qian Que was nervous, but he couldn't show it on his face. He asked, "Fairy Zhao, have you changed your mind and want to go with us?"
Colleagues
A hint of disdain finally flashed across Zhao Yunbin's eyes.
She didn't even glance at the people behind Qian Que. Even though there was a Jindan-stage cultivator among them, they were all rubbish from small sects or even without any sect. There was no need to worry about them.
"Fellow Daoist Qian, you misunderstood. We two are not here to join you. We just want to inquire about the whereabouts of my junior brother Shang. Just now on Sheshen Rock, he didn't follow us. We two waited for him for a long time below, but there was no news. He didn't respond to our messages, so we went up to take a look, but to our surprise, there was no one there. When we left, you were all nearby. I wonder if you have any information about his whereabouts?"
Qian Que's expression finally became strange.
The other three people behind him, except Jianchou, couldn't help but twitch secretly.
What a pitfall!
The three of them were exploring the Black Wind Cave together, but Shang Liaofan was deceived by Jianchou with just a few words. Whereabouts? What the hell can they say about their whereabouts!
Anyway, everyone has a bad impression of the Candle-Cut Sect, so they might as well just watch the fun together.
If you think about this scene with a sense of humor, wouldn't it be fun
Since it had nothing to do with them, everyone's attitude immediately changed.
Jianchou was the one who reacted the fastest. In order to prevent silence from arousing suspicion from the other party, she interrupted directly, "Didn't Junior Brother Shang tell you that he is going back to Feitian Town to investigate Junior Brother Sun's affairs?"
"What, back to Feitian Town?"
How is this possible
Zhao Yunbin's face changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth in hatred.
Shang Liaofan was still brooding over the death of his junior brother Sun, but they were in a hurry to bring back the Dongfeng Candle.
Dongfeng Candle is a kind of crystal stone that grows in the Black Wind Cave. It is about the length of a finger, and the tip will show the red color of flame. It is said that it is located at a distance of 500 feet. In order to obtain Dongfeng Candle, the master specially studied a formation, which can just reach that distance.
But now Shang Liaofan is missing, and there are only two people left to support the formation, which is really too difficult.
In the current situation, can we really bring back Dongfengzhu successfully
A little impatience can ruin a great plan. Zhao Yunbin didn't believe that Shang Liaofan would leave on his own. She really doubted what had happened to this junior brother of hers. Because she had a slight conflict with Qian Que before, she immediately became suspicious.
Jianchou could not help but come out, with a calm face, and explained: "You two fairies don't know, just now on Sheshen Rock, a few monks passing by were talking about Yashan sending people to investigate the deaths of these monks, and Brother Shang happened to hear it. We saw him directly stop the other party and ask about the situation, and he muttered something about 'Yashan', stood there for a long time, and finally flew towards the direction of Feitian Town. As for whether he really went to Feitian Town, it's just my personal guess."
"Yashan?"
Zhao Yunbin frowned when he heard this.
She saw that every word the female cultivator spoke was not chaotic at all, and her words were well-reasoned and well-founded, which did not sound like lies.
and…
This is indeed the most likely thing that will lead to Shang Liaofan leaving.
"Damn..."
It was really unbearable. Zhao Yunbin couldn't help but curse inwardly. Her pretty face was gloomy and she was obviously thinking about the whole thing.
Moreover, now that Shang Lefan is gone, and Jianchou has clearly explained Shang Lefan's whereabouts, there are only two people left in the Jianzhu Sect. Should they go or not
Oops, another difficult choice.
Jianchou put his hands behind his back and shook his index finger unconsciously.
Pei Qian and the other three people standing behind her were devastated when they saw this.
This fellow Taoist "Wuchou" not only does not feel the slightest bit of guilt, he is even very proud!
Look at this rhetoric, it is so shameless to lie to people, it is more real than anything else!
What passing monk? That's obviously you!
What do you mean you hesitated for a long time before leaving? It was obviously you who gave him a strong medicine with just one sentence, and that's why Shang Lefan left!
You did all this, but now you're pretending to be righteous and pushing the blame on others...
I really have to bow down to him.
Pei Qian couldn't help but murmur in a voice so low that only he could hear it: "Zuo Sanqian in the Central Region is indeed a place where talented people come from..."
Qin Lang and Zhou Qingyun also had indescribable expressions.
Only Qian Que in front, standing in front of Zhao Yunbin, felt like he was walking on the edge of a knife. It was exciting and refreshing enough!
He almost thought that a war was about to break out, but he didn't expect "Wuchou" to blurt out these words and immediately pushed all his responsibility away. He was so shameless to the extreme!
Look at the faces of the two girls from the Candle Cutting Faction in front of me...
So cool!
Qian Que raised his eyelids, shook his golden abacus, looked at Zhao Yunbin, smiled, and said slowly: "Two fairies, I think Brother Shang is indeed too concerned about that matter. Feitian Town has been very uneasy recently. I didn't expect that such a thing would be encountered by the Jianzhu Sect. Now that Brother Shang's whereabouts are clear, it has nothing to do with us. We have to hurry to enter the Black Wind Cave, so I won't chat with the two fairies any more. Goodbye."
I'm going to call you a little girl in my heart and call you a fairy out loud. If you dare, hit me!
Qian Que shouted this in his heart and turned around.
Jianchou glanced at Zhao Yunbin, who was frowning, then turned around and walked into the Black Wind Cave with Qian Que.
In a place where the two people from the Jianzhu Sect couldn't see, Qian Que quietly gave a thumbs up and gave Jianchou a look that said "Master, I admire you."
Jianchou smiled when he saw this.
When Pei Qian and the others saw Chou's expression, their expressions had completely changed.
Poor the two people of the Candle-cutter Faction...
They were cheated for no reason. Looking at their expressions, they seemed to have no impression of this "Wuchou" and had no idea that there was such an "enemy" hiding in secret.
Then the question arises, who is "Wuchou"? What is the grudge between him and the Jianzhu Sect
You said you just wanted to vent your anger by giving money
I don’t believe it!
Jianchou walked leisurely in front, feeling the strong wind blowing in his face, and curled the corners of his lips.
Outside Batu Caves.
The slightly plump female cultivator was also in a dilemma, trembling with fear, and said, "Senior Sister Zhao, there are only two of us left now. Junior Brother Sun is gone, and Junior Brother Shang is gone too. Should we still go now?"
"Of course I will!"
Even if I have to crawl, I will crawl into the Batu Caves!
Zhao Yunbin looked at the disappearing figures of the group of people and felt so angry that his teeth were itching.
She always felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know where it was. This strange feeling made her indescribably irritated.
After pacing for two steps, Zhao Yunbin turned back and said coldly, "Send a message to Junior Brother Shang again!"
"yes."
The slightly plump female cultivator quickly took out the communication jade slip and sent a message to Shang Lefan again.
"Junior Brother Shang, Junior Brother Shang, we are already at the entrance of the Black Wind Cave. Where are you? Come back quickly!"
Shang Liaofan had not replied to the message before. This time, no one knew whether it was because of good luck or because Shang Liaofan had already arrived at the place and finally had time to deal with them.
The two people from the Candle Cutting Sect actually received a reply.
"Senior sisters, Liao Fan has returned to Feitian Town."
"What?"
It’s actually true!
Zhao Yunbin snatched the communication jade slip and said sternly: "Who allowed you to go back without permission? Senior Sister Xu's business is not yet completed. You dare to make decisions on your own? After you go back—"
"Brother Sun has lost his life, and he is still no match for an Dongfeng Candle?!"
A voice mixed with grief and anger roared out from the jade message slip.
Zhao Yunbin was stunned.
The next moment, all connections in the communication jade slip were cut off.
Shang Liaofan on the other end destroyed the communication jade slip.
His fingers were trembling, and Zhao Yunbin's face was slightly distorted: "Good, good, very good..."
The slightly plump female cultivator trembled with fear, walked up and asked, "Master, Senior Sister, I...what should we do now?"
"what to do?"
Zhao Yunbin glanced at the Black Wind Cave in front of him, put away the jade slip, and suddenly laughed: "I have been smart all my life, but I was fooled by someone."
She said something was wrong and now she finally remembered.
Zhao Yunbin said directly: "Let's go in!"
The slightly plump female cultivator was surprised. She had no idea why Zhao Yunbin was like this and opened her mouth wide.
In the Black Wind Cave, everything has become dark.
The entire cave was empty both above and below the ground, and could only be illuminated by that one bright pearl.
Five people were preparing to form a battle formation.
Qian Que suddenly asked, "Do you think that little girl will come in again without her junior brother?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Only Jianchou smiled faintly and said, "Of course I will come in."
Everyone glared at her immediately.
Qian Que said in panic: "Don't be such a pessimist!"
This is not a jinx.
Jianchou shook his head and explained, "The Candle-Cut Sect is a group that will do whatever it takes to achieve its goal. They will come in even if they don't have enough people. Another thing is that when we were on Sheshen Rock, we were already very close to the cliff. If someone passed by, they would either go down or come up. But in fact, no one went up or down during this period of time. The two people from the Candle-Cut Sect have been down there the whole time. If they had been a little more careful and thought about it, they would have discovered the flaw I just mentioned. So..."
After blinking her eyes, she was still quite calm.
"They will definitely come in."
"… "
No words to say.
No one knew what to say.
Pei Qian couldn't help but frown and think about it. In fact, they didn't notice this detail. Instead, the lying "Wu Chou" knew his own flaws clearly. He might not know the enemy well, but he knew himself very well.
Such delicate observation and careful thinking...
Qian Que had the urge to fight back: "If they come in, won't they come to seek revenge? Then what should we do?"
"Fellow Daoist Qian, don't worry." Jianchou raised his eyebrows, his eyes bright, and took the initiative to pinch the hand seal, and the formation on his side was directly lit up, "There are only two of them, and their cultivation is not high. So they care about Junior Brother Shang not coming, which obviously has an important role. One less person will weaken their strength. How can they compare with the five of us? Even if they come in, they are behind them, so they won't be in trouble."
"Hey, that makes sense."
Qian Que's eyes also lit up.
Jianchou hasn't finished speaking yet.
"Besides, if we keep walking in front, Brother Qian will be unhappy with them and take the opportunity to set up some kind of formation in front to create some obstacles for them, so that they can eat dirt behind us. Isn't that easy? We can also shoot a sneak attack on them when we come back..."
"… "
good…
So vicious!
Qian Que couldn't help but applaud and exclaim!
Pei Qian couldn't help but look at Jianchou a little longer. That face and that pair of eyes were so beautiful. But after hearing what he said, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. What kind of overwhelming hatred was this
Qin Lang and Zhou Qingyun still had only one thought: We've boarded a pirate ship, a terrifying pirate ship! It's over, is it too late to get off the ship now
As soon as they thought of this, the hazy light around Jianchou had reached its brightest point, hiding her slender figure.
"My fellow Taoists, let's go quickly."
