Ji Qiu originally thought that there were living things in the coffin, but in fact there were no living things in the coffin, not even corpses or bones, only a strange-shaped yellow plate.

Since the fire had already started, Ji Chou didn't care to look at it carefully, reached out and grabbed the plate, turned around and ran out of the fire scene.

When I got outside, I looked carefully by the firelight. I saw that this plate was not a tableware for eating, but a disc-shaped metal object. It was only about the size of a palm and had an oblate shape. This thing was not completely integrated. There were three circles inside and outside.

Each circle has a different number of cells, and each cell has a different strange shape.

I saw it from the front, and then looked at the back, and suddenly I was suspicious, what is this?

The coffin had shaken slightly before, which was undoubtedly caused by this object. However, the object itself may not be able to move on its own. Instead, the person who spoke previously used spiritual energy to control it through remote sensing. The purpose was probably to attract his attention, or it may be to

Test his courage.

"Excuse me, what is this?" Ji Chou looked around for it.

There was no one around to answer the question, and the night was silent except for the crackling sound of burning wood.

The fire burned more and more fiercely, and the donkey brayed in fright. Hearing the donkey's braying, Ji Chou paused to observe, put away the copper plate and led the donkey away from the broken house.

After coming out of the courtyard, Ji Chou searched around again, but found no one there. It was obvious that the person who had made the noise before had left quietly.

Who is this person? Why is he giving something to himself? What is this round copper plate? Ji Qiu was confused and took out the copper plate again. When he looked carefully, he found that the symbols on the copper plate were actually Yin Yang and Five Elements.

As for the symbols of Bagua, there are two symbols in the inner circle, namely Yin and Yang, the middle circle is the Five Elements symbol, and the outermost circle is the Bagua symbol. The shapes of the Yin and Yang sides are the same.

I shook it and weighed it. Although this thing was heavy, it was not solid. There should be something inside, and the different symbols on the three inner and outer circles should be the mechanism for opening the copper plate.

Although I don’t know what this thing is or how to open it, this thing must be many years old. The surface is extremely smooth, and the symbols on it are very badly worn.

After looking at it, Ji Chou put away the copper plate and turned his attention to the burning broken house again. Because what happened was so weird, his mind was full of questions. The biggest question was why this person wanted to put this copper plate away.

Give him the plate.

First of all, what can be determined is that this person has good intentions towards him, not only towards him, but also towards Ji Haoran and others and even Yunyang City. Otherwise, this person would not have moved the four corpses here.

Come, this was obviously a reminder to them that the sisters they brought into the palace not long ago had unknown origins and had evil intentions.

Furthermore, this person trapped Ji Haoran and others here just to lure him here, and his ultimate goal was to hand over this yellow copper plate to him, which shows that this person had a clear purpose from the beginning.

, the copper plate is for him, not for Ji Haoran and others.

Since this person has not shown his body shape from beginning to end, it is impossible to confirm his identity. However, judging from the voice, this person should be a middle-aged man with extremely advanced spiritual energy cultivation, at least above the Kongming stage, because only entering the Kongming stage

Only in this period can sound transmission be achieved through air.

In addition, this person's five elements should belong to gold. The reason why the coffin was shaking slightly before was undoubtedly because someone was moving the copper plate in the coffin with his extended spiritual energy. The human body has different five elements, and monks belonging to different five elements can sense and control gold.

The five elements of wood, water, fire and earth, of course, this is something that can only be done after entering the void and dark period.

The fire became more and more intense, and the corpses were burned, giving off an unpleasant scorching smell. They could not stay here, so Ji Chou took the donkey away from the mound and tried to go west. This time, there was no obstacle and he successfully returned to the west path.

At this time, Ji Haoran and others had disappeared. It was obvious that they had gone back to Yunyang City to report the news.

Ji Chou hesitated, not knowing where to go. The donkey ran too slowly. Ji Haoran and others might have turned around and returned before they could run back to Yunyang City.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally decided to rest and wait here. His cultivation level was too low and he couldn't do much even if he ran back. What's more, Ji Dongyang's cultivation level was profound. Even if the two women who had sneaked into the palace wanted to assassinate Ji Dongyang, it was not Ji Dongyang's fault.

Dongyang's opponents. The most important thing is that they have just entered the palace, they are both new faces, and they have no chance to get close to Ji Dongyang in a short period of time.

This place is a wilderness, and there are many mosquitoes on summer nights. Not long after we sat down, mosquitoes came from everywhere, buzzing and flying, biting donkeys and people.

I wanted to make a fire and smoke to drive away the mosquitoes, but I couldn't find any dry grass to make a fire. I had no choice but to lead the donkey and walk back and forth nearby until dawn, when the Yang energy rose, and the mosquitoes dispersed.

Before midnight, Ji Haoran and others came galloping from the south. Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Ji Chou stood up and looked into the distance, and found that the expressions on the faces of the three people were not solemn, which meant that nothing happened in Yunyang City.

When the three men reined in their horses and stopped, Ji Chou asked eagerly, "Uncle, how are you doing?"

"They left without saying goodbye not long after we left." Ji Haoran turned around and looked east, "Hey, who burned down that ruined temple?"

"It was caused by a fire," Ji Chou said casually, and then asked, "What did they do before leaving?"

"They don't seem to have done anything," Ji Haoran shook his head, "In my opinion, they don't look like assassins."

"Since you're not an assassin, why did you go to such trouble to sneak into the palace?" Ji Chou asked again.

Ji Haoran shook his head again, "I don't know. We were also discussing this matter on the way here. Sheng Sheng and Ji Xiao suspected that the target of the two women of unknown origin was not Yunyang City, but the three people who went to Yunyang for selection.

Real person from the Soul-Suppressing Alliance."

"Do you suspect that those two women are the blood-reverse guards under Tianzhu's command?" Ji Chou looked at Lin Pingsheng.

"It is possible," Lin Pingsheng nodded and said, "We don't know what their intentions are, but their targets should be the three real people Fu Yuanzi, Lu Yuanzi and Ling Yuanzi."

Hearing Lin Pingsheng's words, Ji Chou frowned and remained silent.

Seeing his doubts, Lin Pingsheng asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I feel like something is wrong." Ji Chou said.

"What do you mean?" Lin Pingsheng asked.

"Think about it, if the two of them were targeting the three real people from the Soul-Suppressing Alliance, there would be no need for them to go to all the trouble to sneak into the palace." Ji Chou said.

"Why do you think they sneaked into the palace?" Ji Xiao asked.

"The time they entered the palace was very short. In such a short time, they could only do one thing." Ji Chou said.

"What?" Ji Haoran and others said in unison.

"Witness the entire process of selecting people for the Soul-Suppressing Alliance." Ji Chou said.

"What do you mean?" Lin Pingsheng tilted his head and looked at him.
