Don’t you know? The three of them were speechless for a while. Do you mean what you said is true?
Even they believed it just now and thought that it was Yao Xianding's help that the Shangqing Sect was accepted by Xuan Wei, the female prime minister of the Wei Kingdom. They were talking nonsense.
Even if you lie to Yao Xianding, Wu Zhaoxing can't help but wonder: "Could it be that Yao Xianding is also yours?"
Yun Ji and her son couldn't help but glance at Wu Zhaoxing. Niu Youdao had already said that he didn't know Yao Xianding at all, but this person could still ask such a question. It seemed that the master who ranked sixth on the Dan list did not have a very good IQ.
.
Little did they know that this idea really wronged Wu Zhaoxing, because Wu Zhaoxing had not known Niu Youdao before. He thought of Yao Xianding from his own body. If even Yao Xianding, the chief elder who guarded the main pavilion, was also Niu Youdao's person.
, that can really help a lot.
Niu Youdao replied while skimming: "No."
After receiving this reply, Yun Ji and her son glanced at Wu Zhaoxing as if it was true.
Wu Zhaoxing was confused, "Then why do you have to see him?"
Niu Youdao: "Meeting him is not the purpose, the purpose is to find my people by meeting him. The place they pointed out to me just now should be the next gathering place for the Weiguo forces. If they find Yao Xianding, they will naturally find my people."
.”
As soon as these words came out, several people suddenly realized and understood.
The way for the forces of various countries to search for spiritual seeds in the secret realm is to disperse the search and advance as a whole over a large area. The center of the leader of the Weiguo team will not be fixed in one place and waste time by running back and forth for the searching monks. They must also advance in the general direction, gathering and gathering during the movement.
After setting up, spread out and advance.
Yao Xianding was on the move, and the disciples of Shouzheng Pavilion were unable to determine where Yao Xianding was. The place he pointed to must be the next meeting place for the Weiguo forces.
Understanding this, the three of them discovered that Niu Youdao's mental judgment ability was indeed very clear. He could identify the main key to solving the problem from irrelevant side details, and could hide his intentions by going to Yao Xianding.
Yun Ji asked: "You go to see Yao Xianding in this deceptive way, are you not afraid of angering them? There are only a few of us, and there are many experts over there!"
Niu Youdao: "Among the other countries, our Nanzhou troops are suppressing Zhao's ambitions. After suppressing Zhao, we may try to contain South Korea. Therefore, before the war outside becomes clear, Wei is the least likely to touch me..."
Searching for spiritual seeds can be described as leaving early and returning late. We set out early in the morning, gather and rest before dark, and gather together for protection.
The main reason is that it is really inconvenient to search for spiritual seeds at night, and you need to recover your mana after running around for a whole day.
No one knows what the situation will be like on the road ahead, and the designated gathering points are only in a general area, and are places with significant landform features in the relevant areas.
Niu Youdao was not in a hurry, and waited until it was almost dark before arriving. He also wanted to delay his appearance until almost all the Weiguo monks had gathered, because he didn't know any of his own people here, so he could only let him know.
Let the other person identify themselves.
After arriving in the relevant area, it is not difficult to find Yao Xianding. The Weiguo monks have set up a security guard in the relevant area to guide the returning foreign monks to gather easily. Niu Youdao and his party were easily discovered when they arrived, and were then taken to the Weiguo and his party.
's center.
In a valley, when they learned that Niu Youdao had arrived, Mu Yinggao, the elder of Lingxu Mansion, Yao Xianding, the elder of Shouzheng Pavilion, and Cao Bing, the elder of Dalue Mountain, all showed up.
Yao Xianding was even waiting for Niu Youdao here.
Although Niu Youdao came first, he arrived slowly due to delay, and still lagged behind the disciple who guided the way in Shouzheng Pavilion. After the latter came back, he had already reported Niu Youdao's request for an audience.
Therefore, when he saw Niu Youdao, Yao Xianding sneered again and again, "Niu Youdao, this is the first time we have met, right? I really can't remember when we became friends, and when did we help the Qing Dynasty to connect people?"
A group of people in the valley were looking at Niu Youdao with different expressions, ranging from curiosity to disdain to pity.
Niu Youdao said calmly: "I'm really ashamed! I'm lying. When I met a disciple of Shouzheng Pavilion by chance and asked him to show me the way, the disciples of your sect were quite disdainful. I had no choice but to lie. It is indeed wrong to lie, but I am sincere in seeking to see you."
Yao Xianding: "Sincerely? Why do you want to see me?"
Niu Youdao: "The reason why I asked to see Elder Yao was because I happened to meet a disciple of Shouzheng Pavilion, so I took the opportunity to find an excuse. Not only did I ask to see Elder Yao, but I also asked to see Elder Mu and Elder Cao. To be honest, the three major sects of Yan State were fighting for the south. I want to take control of the state, I have fallen out with you, and I will be expelled from the Yan Kingdom. Now I am desperate and want to join the Weiguo camp, and I beg for the protection of the Weiguo forces."
Mu, Yao, and Cao looked at each other. The three of them could understand Niu Youdao's words. Today's Nanzhou has a great influence on the Yan State. It is inevitable for the three major factions of the Yan State to compete for control. They will take the opportunity to force Niu Youdao here. Youdao can imagine that if it were them, they would probably do the same thing.
It would be inappropriate for Niu Youdao to join any faction in this place. He would offend the other two factions. It is conceivable that this guy would be expelled.
No need to say anything more, it was a simple and clear matter, the three of them had already made a decision as soon as their eyes met.
Without pursuing Niu Youdao's deception, Yao Xian decided: "This is a family matter within your Yan country. It is not appropriate for us to interfere. You should find another way."
Niu Youdao: "If I die, the fight for Nanzhou between the three major factions of Yan State is likely to affect the war against Zhao State. The war between Yan and Zhao was initiated by Zhao State first. Everyone knows Zhao State's ambitions. Is Wei Guo willing to do so?" Watching Zhao State become powerful? Once Zhao State becomes powerful, there will be Zhao State in the east, tiger and wolf Jin in the west, and the Wei State will be attacked from both sides, how can you turn a blind eye?"
Mu Yinggao said, "Do you think you can leave the Tiandu Secret Realm alive? Tiangu is unruly and has done his own evil. No one can help you!"
Niu Youdao: "Then I can't give up on myself. The ants are still greedy for life. Otherwise, why bother begging in front of you?"
Cao Bing, the elder of Daleshan, said, "It's useless to beg us! There's no need for us to beat around the bush. We know that if we don't help you, you'll be dead. If we help you, you'll be dead. There are so many people who want to put you to death. We don't have to." Asking for trouble."
Yao Xianding: "Niu Youdao, I am magnanimous and will not pursue your deception. I can't help you here, so you should find your own way."
Although Yun Ji and others on the side didn't know what Niu Youdao was doing here, seeing Niu Youdao begging for help in such a lowly manner made them all sigh in their hearts. They could understand that Niu Youdao was in a difficult situation. He was really in a difficult situation. Struggling to survive.
It was useless to ask for help again and again. Niu Youdao glanced at the sky and said, "I already know your attitude. Since this is the case, I won't force it, and I can't do it. It's just that it's getting late, and there may be people from the outside world who are chasing me. Please protect me tonight." , I’ll leave as soon as it gets light and think of another way, how about that?”
This request was nothing, so we agreed and asked them to take them down.
Watching him leave, Yao Xianding shook his head and said, "You can be considered a troublemaker outside, but he ended up in this situation."
Cao Bing said: "You have made too many enemies, but you are still young after all."
Mu Yinggao: "It's your own fault!"
It was getting dark, and in addition to the defensive manpower hidden in the darkness outside, bonfires were lit inside to drive away harassment from insects and ants.
Niu Youdao said that you can also light a bonfire.
Yun Ji immediately signaled Yun Huan to collect dry firewood in the nearby mountains and forests. Unexpectedly, Niu Youdao stopped him and said, "You guys wait, I will do this kind of chores."
Yun Huan smiled bitterly, "You do the chores? I'm obviously doing it all the way, okay?" He whispered, "Don't say it so nicely, you just want to take the opportunity to connect with people, right?"
Not only that, Niu Youdao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and observing the surroundings, stood up and whispered back: "In their eyes, my cultivation is low, and you are the masters. If you stay here and are stared at by them, can you
Reduce their defenses and make it easier for me to act."
The three of them exchanged glances. It was indeed true, and they could see that there must be a mystery behind this person's abnormal behavior along the way. It was a bit like building a bridge over mountains and rivers, and he always had a way to deal with it when encountering difficulties.
.
After watching him leave, Wu Zhaoxing muttered, "There's a reason why this guy can live till now."
Yun Ji, mother and son both nodded in agreement.
There were Weiguo monks collecting dry firewood in the nearby mountains and forests, and Niu Youdao also sneaked in to do the same thing.
"What's your surname?"
"He Xinru."
"After setting off tomorrow, do something for me and kill all the people you are traveling with."
"Why...why?"
"I don't need to know why, and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you now. Is it okay or not?"
"It's not that I don't obey orders, it's that I simply can't do it. During the dispersed search, we were traveling in groups of five. I am not strong enough to kill the other four, and I will be exposed once I do it."
"Well, leave the road sign number to guide me to find you, and I will help you with the rest..."
This was the quiet conversation between Niu Youdao and Xiaoyue Pavilion's hidden pile who also came to pick up dry firewood and came to meet him when he was picking up dry firewood.
He Xinru was not the only one who met him one after another, there was also one, Niu Youdao knew both of the two people deployed by Xiaoyue Pavilion on Weiguo's side.
He knew that his arrival would inevitably attract the attention of Xiaoyue Pavilion's hidden stake. He also knew that as soon as he sent out the contact signal and created the conditions for the meeting, the other party would find a way to come and contact him.
There were two people, one was a casual cultivator. The one Niu Youdao wanted to connect with was not the casual cultivator. He was more interested in He Xinru, a member of the sect, because the influence of the casual cultivators was not as great as that of the members of the sect.
However, the connector signal could not be clearly determined which one it was looking for. When the two of them saw the signal, they naturally found it. Niu Youdaochun took it as acquaintance and left the specific execution to He Xinru.
After the matter was done, Niu Youdao came back with a large amount of dry firewood that could last for a whole night, and laid it down next to several people.
When lighting the bonfire, Yun Ji asked, "Have we contacted you?"
Niu Youdao only has two words, "It's done!"
After that, he asked for a piece of hunted meat from Weiguo, roasted it on the fire and shared it.
After eating, we sat cross-legged around the fire and meditated. The night passed without incident.
