Downstairs, there was a middle-aged man, dressed like a scholar, with a bun on his head. When Jiang Xiaoyu saw him, he also saw Jiang Xiaoyu.
The two were stunned for a moment, and then the middle-aged man nodded and saluted. Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand to signal him to be quiet, and then pointed to the tea room.
The middle-aged man understood, and the two of them walked in, one behind the other.
This person was none other than Feng Chengping, the elder of the Nine Infants of the Beast Control Sect. Having dealt with him many times in the Beast Control Sect, Jiang Xiaoyu was very familiar with his voice.
Why did he appear here? This was Jiang Xiaoyu's first reaction after hearing his voice.
And the second reaction was that maybe he came to find her. After all, Chu Yang was the only place to go from Sifang City to Four Xiang Sect. In fact, Jiang Xiaoyu had no hostility towards Feng Chengping. After marrying Chu Xue
After that, he treated himself with utmost respect.
If he really wants to sneak into the Four Symbol Sect and be in danger because of himself, this is what Jiang Xiaoyu doesn't want to see.
What's more, Jiang Xiaoyu and Chuxue had been separated for a long time, and he was also trying to understand Chuxue's current situation from Feng Chengping's mouth.
At that time, he couldn't help himself, but now, he had something he had to do. Thinking about it carefully, he really felt that he was a little sorry for Chuxue.
Entering the tea room, Fengcheng waved his hand, and an invisible barrier was formed.
This is the boundary of traditional Taoism, and Feng Chengping is right to be cautious.
However, Jiang Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise.
"Uncle!" Feng Chengping's voice was very serious. It could be seen that he really regarded Jiang Xiaoyu as one of his own. Jiang Xiaoyu's status in the Sixiang Sect was the same as that of the elders. Logically speaking, Feng Chengping was straight.
You could just call him by his name, but he didn't.
After all, the word uncle sounds much closer.
"Do you know why Elder Feng suddenly appeared here?" Jiang Xiaoyu directly entered the topic in one sentence.
Feng Chengping nodded, "Of course I know that this place, for those of us from the Beast Control Sect, is a land of tigers and wolves."
"Elder Feng, you should know that I am the direct disciple of Elder Longshan. Even if I am taken to the Four Symbol Sect, there is no need to worry about safety issues. You really don't need to put yourself in danger."
"No!" Feng Chengping shook his head, "The sect naturally knows that my uncle will have no problem in the Sixiang Sect."
"Then what are you doing?" Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't think of any other reason besides himself that Feng Chengping could appear here.
"Palace Master!"
"Palace Master? What's wrong with her? Isn't she in Sifang City?" As soon as he mentioned Chuxue, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly felt a chill running down his spine, and an ominous premonition arose in Jiang Xiaoyu's heart.
Feng Chengping frowned and said: "She is not in Sifang City!"
"Not here?"
"On the day my uncle was taken away by Lin Zhihuan of the Four Elephant Sect, the palace owner left Sifang City. According to our analysis, she most likely came to the Four Elephant Sect to find you."
"What?" Jiang Xiaoyu stood up directly, "Absolutely impossible, she has no cultivation now, and the only ones around her are two maids and the spine-swallowing beast I gave her. This journey is extremely dangerous, how can she
possible..."
"That's right!" Feng Chengping shook his head helplessly, "It was because he knew this road was dangerous that the sect leader sent me to stop her. However, I searched carefully along the way, but there was no trace of her. All the way.
Going west, we arrived at Chuyang."
"I also thought at that time that Chu Yang was my last hope. If Chu Yang couldn't find her, then she would most likely have arrived at the Four Symbols Sect. By then, I would risk my life to take her with me.
Going back."
Jiang Xiaoyu shook his head thoughtfully, "I just came out of the Four Elephants Sect. Chuxue has never been to the Four Elephants Sect. Where will she go?"
"Hey!" Feng Chengping sighed, "I knew when I saw you that the Palace Master must not have gone to the Four Symbols Sect. Now it seems that the only possibility is that her destination is not the Four Symbols Sect."
"Where could that be?" Jiang Xiaoyu tapped his fingers slightly on the table, worry on his face.
"Is it possible that I was kidnapped by some sect? If that's the case, I'm afraid I have no choice but to die to apologize." Feng Chengping shook his head dejectedly. It could be seen that he had experienced a lot of disappointment along the way.
.
"Probably not!" Jiang Xiaoyu said: "Although Chuxue's appearance is stunning, she is extremely smart and will not be targeted by bad people. Even if she is targeted by someone, the two maids around her can handle it.
The monk doesn't have much of a problem, even if she encounters someone with a higher level of cultivation, the spine-swallowing beast will still be by her side."
Jiang Xiaoyu paused and continued: "So, you probably just looked in the wrong direction. Maybe her destination was not the Four Symbols Sect at all, so she missed everything all the way."
Jiang Xiaoyu actually felt unsure after saying this, but he had no choice but to give Feng Chengping some hope so that he could maintain more motivation to continue searching.
The world of cultivation is so big that even if a person doesn't hide, he is just a drop in the ocean, and it is difficult to find a needle.
What's more, Chuxue must have been hiding in this way.
Jiang Xiaoyu now has two paths in front of him.
The first way is to continue to Tianbei Temple, hand Wen Zhiming's chess piece to Monk Pu Shan, and then head east to the mortal world.
The second way is to ignore Wen Zhiming's instructions and go all out to find Chuxue. After Chuxue is found, continue to carry out Wen Zhiming's instructions.
No matter which choice he made, Jiang Xiaoyu felt a little uneasy.
He felt sorry for Chuxue by choosing the first path. If something unexpected happened to Chuxue, Jiang Xiaoyu would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
By choosing the second path, he somewhat betrayed Wen Zhiming's trust. After all, the Sixiang Sect treated him well, and everyone had to compare their feelings to their own. If he turned a blind eye to all that, what difference would there be between a person and a grasshopper?
The two of them each looked at the teacups in front of them, but they were thinking about completely different things.
Suddenly, Feng Chengping was the first to break the silence.
"Of course I will work hard on the palace master's affairs. This uncle can rest assured. But, uncle, do you know that the Four Symbols Sect is not peaceful recently!"
"It's not peaceful?" Jiang Xiaoyu looked at Feng Chengping doubtfully, "What do you mean by this?"
"The sect's eyes and ears have returned news that several large sects seem to have united together to prepare to harm the Four Elephant Sect. Moreover, the strength of these sects is not bad. This time, many powerful sects have gathered together.
The Sixiang Sect is in danger of being rescued. It is a wise choice for me to leave the Sixiang Sect at this time."
"Doomed?"
There was indeed a dispute between the Sixiang Sect and Qinghongxuan some time ago, and Jiang Xiaoyu was the crux of it. But he did not expect that several sects would unite together.
In the world, for any sect with some history, the difference in strength between them is not as big as imagined. After all, there are only a few monks in the Mahayana period.
The reason why some sects are ranked high is mostly because they have secret techniques or treasures that other sects do not have.
Just like the Wandu Sect that Jiang Xiaoyu encountered before, it is impossible for such a small sect to last for hundreds of years. However, they did it forcefully. The reason is very simple, because they have surrounding
The poisonous path that small sects are afraid of.
The most important reason why the Four Symbols Sect was regarded as the leader of the Taoist sect in the past is that the Four Symbols Sect has ideological entrenchment.
After hundreds of thousands of years of operation, the Four Elephants Sect developed the Four Elephants Mountain Protection Formation through the spiritual power emanating from the Four Elephants. This formation can almost be said to be the most powerful formation in the world.
Naturally, the Four Symbols Sect, which no one could intrude upon, and its own few Mahayana monks, were crowned the leader of the Taoist sect.
But now, Xuanwu has been stolen, and the four-elephant mountain-protecting formation is not as good as before. The entrenched three elephants have immediately become a treasure coveted by people in the world.
Of course, Jiang Xiaoyu didn't expect all this.
Feng Chengping added: "The Four Elephants Sect may not be able to find enough strong support. At this time, I am afraid that the sect will be destroyed and people will die. Those big sects are coming fiercely and they seem to be determined to win."
"How do you know so clearly?"
Feng Chengping said mysteriously: "The Broken Leaf Forest Alliance called by the sect leader this time is precisely because of this matter."
"Could it be that the Beast Control Sect also wants to take advantage of the situation?"
