This group of bandits appeared in the Lincheng area half a year ago. They call themselves the Green Wolf Bandits and often harass business travelers and farmers in manors outside the city.
Lincheng's official strength is limited. Although they have sent people to arrest them, the Green Wolf Bandit's whereabouts are secretive and they use the dense mountains and woods around Lincheng as a cover, so it has never been effective.
Chen Li had only heard about the Green Wolf Thief and didn't pay much attention to it, because the other party didn't dare to break into Lincheng and cause trouble.
However, a few days ago, when he went into the mountains to collect herbs, he accidentally learned from an old hunter in the mountains that the Green Wolf Bandit's lair was probably in Qingfengling.
Qingfengling is not very far from Lincheng, but the mountains are high and the peaks are steep. There used to be a Laojun Temple on the ridge, but it was abandoned a long time ago and no one usually goes up there.
There is only one rugged mountain road from the bottom of the mountain to the Laojun Temple on the top of the mountain. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack and is extremely dangerous. This may be the reason why the Green Wolf Bandit chose Qingfengling as its lair.
The old hunter also told Chen Li that there was actually a secret path in the back mountain to go to the top of Qingfengling, but no one knew about it except him!
It really takes no effort at all!
Qin Yun couldn't help feeling happy, but out of caution, he still asked: "Are the old hunter's words reliable?"
"Of course it's reliable!" Chen Li nodded: "His son was bitten by a poisonous snake in the mountains before. I saved his son's life. I often stayed at his house when I went to the mountains to collect medicine."
"And he also took me up this back mountain path. He was worried that I might encounter the Qinglang Bandit when I went to Qingfengling to collect herbs. There were a lot of herbs in that area, so there was no danger as long as I didn't reach the top of the mountain.
"
"That's great!" Qin Yun nodded: "Chen Li, I would like to trouble you to take me there this time."
"That's definitely no problem!" Chen Li smiled and said, "I also hope you can eliminate that group of thieves. A batch of goods from my uncle's house were also robbed by them."
"But it's raining heavily outside now, and it's getting dark soon. How about we wait for the weather to clear and then go see it tomorrow?"
Of course, Qin Yun had no objections. He put his worries aside and had a drink with Chen Li.
He made a decision in his heart. If he could successfully eliminate the Green Wolf Bandits this time, there was no need to rush back to Qianchao City. Anyway, the mission lasted for a month, and it would not be too late to go back when it was almost done.
In this way, even if Qin Wenbing and Qin Xiaoyue have any sinister plots, they will have to wait for him to come back before they can be implemented.
But by that time, Qin Yun had been able to break away from the Qin family and no longer had to worry about the enemy's plot.
After resting for a night in the hotel to recuperate, early the next morning, he quietly left Lincheng with Chen Li and entered the rolling mountains.
The mountains in this area of Lincheng are the southwest-facing remnants of Manglong Mountain. Although the peaks are not as majestic and majestic as the main line of Manglong Mountain, there are many peaks of 100 feet, deep valleys and cliffs can be seen everywhere, and there are almost no ready-made roads in the lush mountains and forests.
Can go.
Chen Li often went into the mountains to collect herbs and was very familiar with the surrounding terrain. Under his leadership, the two of them gradually went deep into the mountains.
It was almost afternoon, after a difficult trek, a tall mountain appeared in front of the two of them.
"Brother Qin Yun, this is Qingfengling. Look at that mountain peak..." Chen Li wiped the sweat from his forehead, pointed to the tallest mountain in the distance and said, "The top is Laojun Temple!"
This place is really remote and hidden! Qin Yun couldn't help but admire it secretly.
The Great Yan Dynasty has always believed in the Taoist sect, and the Longhushan lineage is even regarded as the national sect. Although it is not among the top ten sects, its status in Yanyun is extremely transcendent.
Most of the Qi refiners in the vast Kyushu inherited the ancient Taoist sect, and many hermits and masters would choose to build Taoist temples or caves among famous mountains and rivers to concentrate on their cultivation.
Once they become incarnations and have no disciples to inherit the Taoist lineage, these Taoist temple caves will often decline or be abandoned.
This must be the same for the old military officer who became a den of bandits.
It was getting late, so the two took a short rest and got back on the road, climbing all the way to Qingfengling.
Without Chen Li's guidance, Qin Yun would have been hard-pressed to imagine that there was a narrow path leading directly to the top of the mountain among the dense forest cliffs.
He had to sigh that his luck was really good. If he had not met Chen Li, if Chen Li had not met the old hunter, then even if he got the news about the Green Wolf Bandit, he would have had to go up the mountain through the only path in front.
Since the Green Wolf Bandits regard Qingfengling as their home base, they will inevitably set up hidden sentries on the mountain trail. Therefore, whether Qin Yun wants to detect the truth or eliminate the bandits, it will become dangerous and unpredictable.
The path hidden between the cliffs is extremely difficult to navigate. If you are not careful, you may slip into the deep valley next to it. However, both Qin Yun and Chen Li are good climbers.
Along the way at night, at dusk, the two of them approached the top of the mountain.
Qin Yun found that there was no way up anymore, and the protruding rocks formed insurmountable obstacles.
He stopped and said: "Chen Li, you stay here first, I will go up and take a look. If I haven't come down within an hour, then you can leave me alone and leave immediately!"
Chen Li knew very well that with his own strength, following Qin Yun up would be nothing more than a burden, so he didn't pretend to be pretentious: "Brother Qin Yun, you must be careful!"
Qin Yun nodded and immediately climbed higher.
Even though there was a rock blocking him, his speed increased a lot, and he climbed up the largest exposed rock in the blink of an eye.
In front of you, among the ancient cypresses and pines, you can vaguely see the abandoned Taoist temple shrouded in the sunset light.
Finally reached the top of the mountain!
Qin Yun was refreshed and moved forward carefully with the help of the cover of the woods.
Woof! Woof!
Suddenly, the sound of a dog barking came from the Taoist temple, and he immediately stopped and lurked in the grass.
The Green Wolf Thief actually kept a dog in his lair, and Qin Yun heard the barking of a mountain guard dog, and the faint sound of someone scolding him.
The mountain guard dog is a hunter's best companion. It is extremely alert and brave in nature. It can even dare to fight a tiger, and its sense of smell is extremely sensitive.
Discovering that the enemy had raised a mountain guard dog, Qin Yun became more cautious and silently used the breath-condensing technique to collect all his body's breath.
This is another wonderful use of the breath-containing technique. As expected, the mountain guard dog stopped barking after a short time.
Qin Yun did not act in a hurry, but continued to lurk quietly for a while. When the sky completely darkened, he cautiously sneaked towards the Taoist temple.
Qin Yun had only taken a dozen steps, and suddenly he felt as if he had transformed into an assassin lurking in the darkness, silently approaching his target.
The steps become light and soft, like the walking of a wild cat when hunting. The fallen leaves will not make a sound when stepping on the dead branches. The body naturally changes its posture according to the surrounding environment, and nimbly avoids the vine branches blocking the road.
Tree vines.
His consciousness was also split into two in an instant. One was still his own consciousness, while the other was the cold and ruthless soul of a dark assassin.
All movements of the body are completely controlled by the assassin's soul, and the self-awareness becomes a bystander!
This feeling was so wonderful and mysterious that Qin Yun was even more shocked that the Heaven-Mending Stone entrenched in the Sea of Consciousness had changed.
It suddenly shined brightly, and a brand new golden rune gradually formed, slowly rotating around the big rune representing the secret realm of the universe together with the small magical power of Wisdom and Clearness.
Qin Yun actually obtained the third magical power at this time, the small magical power!
As the golden runes were fully formed, a memory appeared in his mind, a memory about new magical powers.
This little supernatural power that suddenly appeared is called - psychic possession!
Its function is to extract a divine soul consciousness sealed in the Qiankun Tianmending Stone as needed, and then attach it to the body, so that Qin Yun can obtain part of the memory of this divine soul consciousness.
The Heaven-Mending Stone of Heaven and Earth has gone through countless years and been circulated in the hands of many people. After the death of those former owners, their soul consciousness was all sealed in it.
When Qin Yun used the Great Freedom Sword Intent to gain a glimpse of the core mystery of the Heaven-Mending Stone, he was exposed to thousands of soul consciousnesses, which made him feel like he had experienced thousands of different lives.
These soul consciousnesses have lost their own spirituality and wisdom, but the memories and experiences from their lifetimes still exist.
Some of them are mediocre people who do nothing, and there are also many heroes who dominate for a while, or are the best in a certain field.
Warriors, swordsmen, qi refiners, alchemists, weapon casters... What is sealed in the Qiankun Tianmending Stone is a huge treasure house!
It's just that Qin Yun didn't realize that he had such precious wealth before, and the psychic possession was like a key, helping him unlock the key to this treasure house.
In the future, whenever he needs it, he can obtain abilities through psychic possession.
For example, at this moment, Qin Yun gained the consciousness of being a top assassin. Under the control of this consciousness, he temporarily possessed some of the assassin's abilities.
However, maintaining the state of psychic possession also requires continuous consumption of true energy. Once the true energy is exhausted, the state will disappear immediately, and all temporarily acquired experience memories will no longer exist.
Unless Qin Yun can continue to practice and evolve, and evolve the psychic possession into the great supernatural power of swallowing souls into the body, then he will be able to completely integrate a soul consciousness and completely possess all its memories.
When Qin Yunming realized the power of psychic possession, he did not use his own consciousness to regain control of his body, because that would mean dispelling the powerful effects of this small magical power on his own.
Like a real assassin, he approached the stone wall of the Taoist temple, leaned his ear against the wall and listened carefully for a moment, and then suddenly jumped up several feet in the air.
Placing his right hand on the top of the broken wall, Qin Yun turned over with lightning speed.
As soon as his feet landed, his whole body immediately rushed into the darkness in the corner.
There was a bandit sentry more than ten steps away, unaware of it!
