"Who is this one-armed woodcutter?" The fat man looked around the empty cave.

Nanfeng said, "The one-armed woodcutter is the name given to him by the warrior who provided the clues. In fact, this person is probably not a woodcutter. He is just wearing a raincoat and dressing up as a woodcutter. According to the warrior, this man is tall. , the weapon used is a strange-looking large axe."

Nanfeng paused for a moment before continuing, "The warrior accidentally entered this place by mistake. The one-armed woodcutter showed up to talk to him, but the warrior didn't understand what he said at all. Because he couldn't understand the language, the woodcutter tried to communicate with him by drawing and writing, but the warrior couldn't understand the words written by the woodcutter."

"Then what?" Fatty asked curiously.

"Seeing that he couldn't communicate, the woodcutter sent him away. In just a blink of an eye, the woodcutter sent him to another hill three hundred miles away." Nanfeng said.

"This woodcutter can teleport?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

Nanfeng said, "According to what the martial artist described, this person should be using the teleportation technique that can only be used by Jinxian. In addition, the big ax used by this person is weird in style and green in color, so I doubt it." The big ax that the warrior spoke of was probably a large bronze ax from before the Qin and Han dynasties, and the language that this person spoke was also probably from the language of the pre-Qin and Han dynasties.”

"People spoke differently back then than we do now?" the fat man asked casually.

Nanfeng nodded, "The pronunciation is very different."

After Nanfeng finished speaking, Zhuge Chanjuan answered, "It may be earlier than the Qin and Han Dynasties. The language of the Qin and Han Dynasties is indeed incomprehensible to people today, but the small seal script of that time can still be recognized by people today."

"Yes," Nanfeng said, "This person possesses the power of the Golden Immortal, but he has been staying in the world. And from the warrior's description, it seems that this person has not been out for many years and is very curious about things outside, so he is here. He would be left talking, trying to communicate.”

"Is this person trapped here by someone?" Fatty guessed.

Zhuge Chanjuan answered, "Didn't Nanfeng just say that the woodcutter sent the warrior three hundred miles away, how could there be such a big confinement? In my opinion, he should be guarding something important here, or he might be guarding something important. Who keeps watch?"

The fat man pointed at the cave and retorted, "This place doesn't look like a mausoleum. Besides, who deserves to be guarded by the Golden Immortal?"

"Since he is not guarding anything, why hasn't he come out of the mountain for many years?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

"Who knows, maybe he has a broken arm and doesn't want to see people." The fat man made nonsense.

"You are trying to argue." Zhuge Chanjuan glared.

"Aren't you making excuses?" The fat man's eyes were not small.

Seeing the two of them bickering, Nanfeng raised his hand and said, "Okay, stop arguing. You guys wait for me here. I'll go back first."

"Why can't you take us back together when we have to wait for you here?" The fat man was dissatisfied.

Zhuge Chanjuan was also dissatisfied, "That's right, wouldn't it be a little intrusive for us to go back with you?"

"Okay, okay, let's go back together." Nanfeng stepped out of the cave, stretched out his spiritual energy, and teleported to Chang'an with the two of them and Ba Ye Lao Bai.

Appearing outside the door, the three of them stepped forward. Fatty and Zhuge Chanjuan started fighting again. Fatty believed that the woodcutter couldn't get out, while Zhuge Chanjuan thought that the woodcutter didn't want to get out.

"Is it worth arguing about chaff without rice?" Nanfeng waved his hand to the concierge who came out, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.

"We are talking about chaff, so why don't you talk about rice?" Zhuge Chanjuan was displeased.

"There are not enough clues to determine whether the woodcutter is unable to leave or does not want to leave," Nanfeng said while walking, "But one thing is for sure, this person must have a great background, and everything in the cave has been controlled by Daluo Jinxian. Elimination means that we don’t want us to guess the origin of this person based on those things.”

While Nan Feng was speaking, Chang Le and Chu Huairou had already come over from the room to talk to the three of them.

Not long after, Yuan Anning also came out of the backyard and came to meet Zhuge Chanjuan. The six of them went to the main hall and sat down to talk.

In fact, the three of them have not been away for a long time, but they have been to many places and experienced many things. During this period, Yuan Anning has been formulating the rules of the Three Realms with reference to the laws of various countries. The purpose of the bet is to compete for Daluo's seat, and The ultimate goal of competing for Daluo Jinxian's seats is to formulate rules for the three realms. As long as one's own side occupies more seats than the other party, the new rules can be passed and followed by the three realms.

It was evening when the three of them came back, and soon it was dinner time. Everyone sat around to eat. Yuan Anning rarely spoke during the meal. The fat man talked about what he had seen and heard before, and Zhuge Chanjuan told Chu Huairou and Yuan Anning what they had seen and heard before. Occasionally, Nanfeng would interrupt, but most of the time Nanfeng was chatting in a low voice with Changle.

Previously, Lu Pingchuan got the fire-attribute pill that could incinerate alien auras and went to Beiqi. He never came back after leaving.

Recently, warriors, monks and nuns have come to Qixing Villa from time to time to recommend themselves, and some have come to provide clues. Chang Le and Chu Huairou also received some and collected some clues.

It is now the dead stage before the heavy rain. Although people are panicking, nothing major has happened. There is no relevant news about the people chosen by heaven and the underworld to participate in the war. The only thing that is known is that the Sanqing Sect is now closed to defend itself and is cut off. Contacts with the outside world.

"The enemy is in darkness and we are in the open, it's very disadvantageous." Chang Le was very worried.

"Don't worry, even if they know our whereabouts, they can't figure out our details." Nanfeng said casually, turned to paper and pen, and wrote down the residence of the warrior who provided clues. He explained the whole story and asked Chang Le to go there. Verify and trace, and learn as much about this person as possible.

Changle took it and put it away, then asked, "Is there enough time?"

"That should be enough." Nanfeng picked up the wine glass.

"Don't forget, according to what you said before, you need to find twenty-four people, not twelve, and you don't have enough time," Changle reminded, "Also, the twelve-level cultivation alone is not enough." , there are also species constraints, it is easy for Qi practitioners to find them, and there are still no clues about the different species and ghosts, so you have to hurry up."

Nanfeng nodded, "I have entrusted a friend to take care of the trouble. You can also help me verify the clues you and eldest sister received earlier. In addition, the list and residence of those purple energy masters and previously screened warriors will be released later. I will also write to you, and you will observe and visit. From now on, I will only look for strange and ghostly things."

"Okay." Changle nodded in agreement.

"I won't follow you anymore. I'll go with Changle." The fat man said, "I think you shouldn't be touched by others. Pick the important ones first to avoid being overtaken by them. The one with the ax was just killed by them." Not long after we picked them away, they were obviously ahead of us, and what we picked were all the ones they didn’t want."

"You can't say that, they don't know where we are going," Nanfeng drank and put down the glass.

"You're always wandering in zigzags, and even a fool knows where you're going next." Fatty reminded.

"Not unreasonable." Nanfeng nodded slowly. Before Li Kaifu, the enemy may not have figured out their route, but since Li Kaifu was taken away by the underworld, their route may have been grasped by the opponent.

"Be targeted and seize the opportunity." Changle said.

"Yeah." Nanfeng nodded.

Zhuge Chanjuan on the side said, "I won't go with you anymore. I'm a little tired these days. I'll stay here and take over the Yuan family's sister to do some careful work." At this point, Zhuge Chanjuan looked at Yuan Anning and said, "You Go with him to help and remind you, and you can also gain some insights."

Yuan Anning knew that Zhuge Chanjuan was trying to find balance, and he wanted to refuse, but Zhuge Chanjuan rushed to make the final decision, "That's it."

Everyone agreed to concentrate on eating, and after drinking tea, Nanfeng was ready to go on the road, "There's nothing wrong, we're leaving now?"

"Eighth Master, please stay with me. It will be more convenient for me to go wherever I want to go." Zhuge Chanjuan said.

"Okay." Nanfeng agreed.

"The opponent is strong, so be more careful." Chu Huairou warned.

Nan Feng smiled and nodded.

After a simple tidying up, Yuan Anning took the baggage of dry food and returned to the main hall to say goodbye to everyone. Then he went out with Nan Feng and everyone saw him off.

Zhuge Chanjuan deliberately approached and pinched Nanfeng's butt secretly when everyone was unprepared, "Take care of yourself."

"Yeah." Nanfeng nodded hurriedly.

"Where to go?" Yuan Anning asked.

Nanfeng thought for a while and said, "Go to Miao territory, where there is a Thousand-Year Drought Demon..."
