On the way back to the Nine Peaks, Li Shiming was thinking about death as a monk in the Qi Refining Stage.
He had a guess that perhaps the death of this monk in the Qi Refining Stage had nothing to do with the Law Enforcement Hall, but was suffered on his behalf.
Judging from the time, it was probably not long after Qiutan and the two men disappeared that the monks in the Qi Refining Stage of Eagle Beak Island were killed.
He did not inform Uncle Zhuge of this judgment, not because he didn't want to say it, but because he couldn't because there were really many things that couldn't be explained.
When we came to the middle peak again, we went straight to the Tianhai Palace on the middle peak.
Tianhai Hall is the main hall of Zhongfeng. It is on the mountainside of Zhongfeng and is also the core of Tianhai Sect.
"Master Yu, Zhuge Xuan wants to see you!" Uncle Zhuge arrived outside Tianhai Palace and said with his spiritual power.
Even though he was angry, he still suppressed his anger at this point, but the anger could still be heard in his tone.
"Junior Brother Zhuge, come in!" A loud voice came from inside.
"Come in with me!" Uncle Zhuge signaled to Li Shiming and walked into the hall first.
There are many monks in the main hall, and they are all busy.
Uncle Zhuge took Li Shiming to an inner part of the hall. After entering, there was a large office room.
A tall, strong man was sitting on a chair with a pile of papers on the table in front of him.
"Sit down, Junior Brother Zhuge, tell me if you have anything to say, look at me here, I..." The strong man was about to say a few words of complaint, but he found Li Shiming walking in next and couldn't help but hold his voice.
Some words can be said in front of the junior disciples, but they cannot be heard by the disciples.
"Master Yu, this is Li Shiming. He just passed the examination and became a formation master not long ago. He is a genius formation master in our peak competition. He was robbed of his cave by the Law Enforcement Hall and was assigned a mandatory mission to die. I brought him here just because I wanted to
I want an explanation!" Uncle Zhuge pointed at Li Shiming and said to Master Yu.
To be honest, when he saw Leader Yu, Li Shiming couldn't tell at all that he was the leader of Tianhai Sect.
"Your name is Li Shiming? Don't worry, you will have plenty of caves!" After Master Yu heard Li Shiming's name, he thought of something and comforted Li Shiming with a smile.
"Now it's not just about the cave, there is a disciple in the cave who died in the cave after the law enforcement hall transferred the ownership of the cave!" Uncle Zhuge was a little surprised by the attitude of Master Yu, and he continued.
"I understand!" Leader Yu pressed his hand and then took out the leader's order and issued the order.
After issuing the order, he looked at Li Shiming.
He knew Li Shiming's name. Junior Sister Yin had come to him specifically for Li Shiming's cave matter. If Junior Sister Yin hadn't wanted to wait for Li Shiming to come back before handling it, he would have settled the matter long ago.
It's not like Master Yu didn't do anything during this period. He has sent people to find out everything that happened and is waiting for the final closing.
At this time, Deacon Xu of the Law Enforcement Hall walked into the office with his capable subordinate Han Tianlei. When he saw Uncle Zhuge, he smiled and greeted him.
Uncle Zhuge, on the other hand, had a cold face and did not give Deacon Xu any face at all.
When Han Tianlei saw Li Shiming, the initial joy of meeting the leader was gone, replaced by waves of fear.
He didn't understand how a new disciple, a newcomer with no background, could appear here.
"Han Tianlei was born in the Han family of Nanshan Kingdom. During the fifty-three years since he joined the sect, three disciples in the Qi Refining Stage who you arranged to go to Nanshan Kingdom to perform a mission disappeared. You benefited greatly after the disappearance of the three disciples.
This is a report from the monks stationed in the Nanshan Kingdom. The Han family colluded with the monks of the Xuanming Sect to practice the Demonic Cultivation Techniques with living people in the Nanshan Kingdom." Headmaster Yu's voice was neither slow nor fast, but every word was heartbreaking.
"Master, please forgive me!" Han Tianlei was like a lightning strike, he lay on the ground and begged in a mournful voice.
"Master Yu, although Han Tianlei made mistakes, he also made great contributions to the sect, so the punishment should be lighter!" When Deacon Xu saw this scene, how could he not know that Zhuge Xuan brought someone here to complain.
Han Tianlei had just given him a benefit, and it was easy to use. He also needed to show a protective attitude, otherwise no one would work for him in the future.
"Xu Peiran, do you think you'll be fine?" Headmaster Yu looked at Deacon Xu coldly and said.
Instantly, a terrifying aura filled the room, and Master Yu's aura was more powerful than any foundation-building monk Li Shiming had ever seen.
Deacon Xu looked at Head Yu with some confusion. Based on his understanding of Head Yu, once his name was called out, something big would have happened.
He looked at Li Shiming angrily and puzzled, wondering if Master Yu really knew how to deal with him for such a disciple.
"Xu Peiran, it's okay for you to be greedy for a little profit, but you are the deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall. If this happens to you, where will the sect be? If you hand over your position as the deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall, Yingzui Island will use you as the deacon of the sect.
The good deeds exchanged will belong to Li Shiming forever. You are ready to guard the sky and the sea for twenty years!" Headmaster Yu said angrily.
When Xu Peiran heard that he had exchanged good deeds for Li Shiming for Yingzui Island, although Xu Peiran felt a little distressed, he didn't have much reaction.
Even though Eagle Beak Island has little value, renting and redeeming it are two different things.
The exchange is to give away the ownership, which is always privately owned. It requires a lot of good deeds, which is far beyond what the monks in the Qi Refining Period can afford.
Even if Xu Peiran exchanged his good deeds for Yingzui Island, it would take many years of accumulation. He accepted this.
But when he heard that he would guard the sea line between the sky and the sea for twenty years, Xu Peiran's expression completely changed. He looked at Head Yu in disbelief, thinking that Head Yu was joking.
Headmaster Yu opened his mouth, but this time he did not make a sound, but said a few words to Xu Peiran through sound transmission.
After hearing these two words, Xu Peiran's initially somewhat resistant look disappeared. At this time, he wished he could go to the Tianhai sea line immediately. Although fighting there was dangerous, it was much better than being forced out of seclusion by the elders and causing trouble.
Besides, Elder Yin can be more talkative here. If he waits for Old Demon Ren from Xuanming Sect to take action, he may not even know how he died.
Leader Yu punished him to go to the sea line of Tianhai, which was to protect him.
"I realize my mistake, and I will be punished by the leader!" Xu Peiran said as he took out the identity jade disk, and quickly purchased Eagle Beak Island and transferred it to Li Shiming's name.
Li Shiming stared blankly at everything that happened in front of him. Could it be that Master Yu's acting style was so vigorous and resolute? Looking at the situation in front of him, it seemed that he had already grasped the whole matter clearly.
This kind of intelligence ability was really terrifying. He wondered whether the little things he had done had not escaped the intelligence of Master Yu.
Uncle Zhuge saw the signs, and Master Yu knew more about it than he did, and seemed to be waiting for Li Shiming to come over.
Han Tianlei was brought back by the Law Enforcement Hall, but this time as a prisoner.
Dealing with Han Tianlei would have to wait until everything was investigated clearly, but he didn't want to live anymore. He could only pray that the sect would not let him be destroyed physically and mentally and completely disappear from the world.
Li Shiming thanked Master Zhuge and returned to Yingzui Island with Master Zhuji named Xu from the Law Enforcement Hall.
When Uncle Xu arrived at Yingzui Island, he first surveyed the murder scene and recorded all the information that could be recorded one by one.
"The leader ordered that this is a small mountain protection formation. The Law Enforcement Hall will compensate you. The original defensive formation will be taken back by the sect's main formation!" Uncle Xu said after finishing everything and putting away the body.
After Master Xu left, Li Shiming still looked at the storage bag in his hand in disbelief.
The reason why a small mountain guard array is stored in a storage bag is because the small mountain guard array is not in the form of an array disk, but is composed of multiple array flags and a spiritual object with sufficient spiritual energy as the base of the array.
This is still a small mountain guarding formation. If it were a medium or large mountain guarding formation, the level of spiritual objects required would be higher, and the formation would be more complex.
It can be said that a small mountain protection formation is the best formation to protect a mountain peak, and it can be used as a large sect protection formation in a small sect.
Li Shiming took out a jade slip from his storage bag, which recorded the formation diagram of the small mountain guarding formation.
Under normal circumstances, such a mountain protection formation requires a professional formation master to set up, but he is also a professional formation master. In addition, he is setting up a cave for himself, so he needs to minimize the possibility of other monks interfering.
"Master Yu is a good man!" Li Shiming felt grateful in his heart.
Little did he know that during the investigation, Headmaster Yu did not believe that Han Tianlei had killed the Qi Refining Stage disciple.
Master Yu suspected that Yingzui Island was invaded by monks from his sect and killed the disciple.
Han Tianlei had no reason to kill that disciple, a junior spirit planter who was a disciple in the Qi refining stage and was invited by Han Tianlei to take care of Fu Lingzhu and Lingtian.
Boss Yu guessed that Li Shiming had some kind of relationship with Yin Shilan, otherwise how could Yin Shilan, who had never spoken to him, come to him about Li Shiming's affairs.
For Li Shiming's safety, and because the Law Enforcement Hall really made a big mistake this time, this small mountain guarding formation was created by the Law Enforcement Hall's Gongzhong.
Li Shiming spent a whole day setting up the small mountain protection formation.
His theory was solid, but his practice was lacking. Arranging such a complex array allowed him to consolidate the theoretical knowledge he had learned, and his practical ability was greatly improved.
The experience of setting up a small mountain guard formation this time will be a great reference for him in setting up other complex formations in the future.
Of course, his formation speed is not too slow. To set up such a formation, he needs to explore every part of Eagle's Mouth Island. According to the terrain, spiritual energy distribution, magnetic field, etc., every point that matches the Eagle's Mouth Island can be improved.
The effect of a small mountain guard formation is one point.
During the formation process, it was already noon, and he sent a message to Yin Shilan, telling her that he was back.
On the other side, Yin Shilan looked at the message from the identity jade disc and was a little angry.
When Li Shiming found Leader Yu, she knew about Li Shiming's return, and she had been waiting for Li Shiming to send her a message.
However, Yin Shilan took out her pocket watch and looked at the time. The original angry look disappeared, replaced by a shallow arc on her crimson lips.
"I remember the agreed time, I forgive you!" she thought to herself, but she sent a message to ask if the trip went well.
Li Shiming did not describe the troubles he encountered during this mission, but simply told Yin Shilan the customs and customs of Nanshan Country as a story.
Both of them had self-control, and when it was over, they both stopped communicating.
After Li Shiming arranged the small mountain protection formation, he still had many things to do.
When setting up a small mountain guarding formation, he added monitoring probes to the formation. With the formation's cover, no one could detect the monitoring probes without the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy.
Four surveillance probes take care of both the inside and outside of the island. The main reason is that Eagle Beak Island itself is not big.
After taking safety measures, he began to make plans for his next practice.
He came to the underground space. He hadn't been here for a while, and everything was as usual in the underground space.
Han Tianlei, who occupied this place, did not discover the existence of the underground space.
To a certain extent, this underground space is not within the scope of Eagle Beak Island.
This time, Li Shiming deliberately enlarged the scope of the small mountain protection array to include a sea surface above the underground space in the small mountain protection array.
He planned to build a dock on that stretch of sea, on the one hand to provide cover for the underground space, and on the other hand to prepare for transporting mundane things to the island in the future.
He caught two spiritual fish from the water and went out recently, but his 'Vajra Body Protection Magic' has not improved at all.
When making fish soup with spiritual fish, he thought of Ren Feier who liked to eat the spiritual food he made, and couldn't help but chuckle.
He took out the contact jade token, but found that the contact jade token was flashing continuously.
"Little brother, are you back?"
"Brother, why are you so slow?"
"Bad guy, you won't throw away the contact card, right?"
"I lost my temper just now. A kitten made me angry."
"I really want to hear stories."
…
Li Shiming sensed the message in the contact jade tablet, which started three days after the separation.
I think Ren Fei'er's family took her home at that time, but she didn't understand Li Shiming's speed, and Li Shiming returned without any delay.
However, Li Shiming thought that he seemed to have been delayed for a day, because of Han Tianlei's affairs and the arrangement of the small mountain protection formation on Yingzui Island.
"Fei'er, I just finished handling the matter. Did you know that Eagle's Mouth Island was robbed when I came back? Fortunately, the leader dealt with Han Tianlei, and Eagle's Mouth Island now completely belongs to me!" Li Shiming shared with Ren Fei'er after returning.
What happened afterwards.
"The evil man Han Tianlei is so abominable, we must not let him off lightly!" Ren Feier, who shared the same hatred, supported him.
Both of them denounced Han Tianlei, Li Shiming because of the trouble he suffered this time, and Ren Feier because he was almost captured by the old monk Duyuan. Anyway, everything came from Han Tianlei.
"Brother, I found the record of transforming the corpse. I will send you the location of the contact card you triggered!" Ren Feier thought of something important and said quickly.
Li Shiming looked at his surroundings, and after leaving the underground space and returning to the cave, he activated the positioning of the contact card.
He was a little curious about how Ren Fei'er sent the records. Could it be that Ren Fei'er was in the sect?
Just as I was thinking about it, I felt a touch warning coming from the small mountain guard formation.
He put on a blindfold and saw a small bird hitting the magic circle.
