In the quiet night of the courtyard, under a straight and tall sycamore tree, the flowing air seemed to have suddenly stopped, and the temperature suddenly dropped.
This sudden change even alarmed Wu Yuanyuan who was sitting in the room. She seemed to feel something, stood up suddenly, walked quickly to the door, and reached out to open the door.
I saw Aunt Lei and Zhuo Mufeng standing several meters apart. Aunt Lei's eyes were frighteningly bright, and her whole body was covered with a layer of terrifying aura that was about to rush towards Zhuo Mufeng at any time.
Worried about her husband's safety, Wu Yuanyuan was about to rush over and call someone, but Zhuo Mufeng stopped her in advance: "Yuan girl, go back to your room, you have nothing to do here."
Wu Yuanyuan refused to listen and stepped over the threshold with one foot. Zhuo Mufeng did not look back, and his tone became more serious: "Didn't you hear what I said?"
Biting her lower lip with her white teeth, Wu Yuanyuan looked at Zhuo Mufeng's back, and then at the silent Aunt Lei. The two of them didn't look like they were ready to take action.
She couldn't bear to refute her husband's face in front of others, so she thought for a moment and returned to the room obediently. However, she didn't close the door and stared at the two of them with a straight face. She was actually on guard against Aunt Lei.
Sensing this woman's actions, Zhuo Mufeng was amused and helpless, but also a little moved. The woman didn't even think about it. If Aunt Lei really wanted to attack him, could she stop her?
Zhuo Mufeng took a step sideways, just in between Aunt Lei and Wu Yuanyuan, and looked directly at Aunt Lei: "Why is Aunt Lei so excited? Is there some hidden secret in it?"
Aunt Lei saw all the interaction between the young couple and inexplicably thought of Luluo. She was secretly annoyed with Zhuo Mufeng and Chuanyin said coldly: "Boy, why do you ask that? Who told you what?"
?Ignorant monk?”
The other party chose to transmit the message, so Zhuo Mufeng had no choice but to do as he was told and replied: "Madam, I misunderstood. This is just a little speculation from this junior."
"Why do you make such assumptions and look down on me and others?" Aunt Lei asked angrily, with a very harsh tone.
This left Zhuo Mufeng speechless for a while, thinking to himself that he had not offended this old woman. If it was a matter of the Demon Party, hadn't it already been explained?
Admittedly, the question he raised did seem to look down on others, and he felt that Aunt Lei and others couldn't plan such a large-scale conspiracy even with their combined IQs.
But with Aunt Lei’s character and character, she wouldn’t have such a big reaction, right?
Sure enough, a woman is a woman, no matter how powerful she is, she can't change her petty nature.
Secretly slandering, Zhuo Mufeng lowered his eyes: "Senior misunderstood, junior just asked casually. But from senior's reaction, junior already knows the answer."
These words made Aunt Lei grind her teeth again. This boy provoked her to lose her composure repeatedly. She was neither yin nor yang, but it made her look angry. She was a bastard!
When she suddenly heard Zhuo Mufeng's question just now, Aunt Lei did overreact. Later, because of Wu Yuanyuan's interference, she failed to control her emotions. After slowly calming down, she felt regretful.
She seemed to have never taken advantage of Zhuo Mufeng once, and the more she thought about it, the more depressed she became.
"Senior, please expose yourself more deeply. Go back and rest quickly." Zhuo Mufeng's voice sounded.
Aunt Lei chuckled lightly: "Boy, don't play this trick with me to retreat in order to advance. You are too young! Let me ask you, if it were you, could you plan the situation in Nuanyang Mountain?"
After saying that, he stared at Zhuo Mufeng with burning eyes.
Zhuo Mufeng was silent for a while. After pondering for a long time, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid I won't be able to do it even if I try my best."
His family knows his own affairs, and his strength lies in adapting to circumstances and being able to deal with various emergencies according to specific situations. His attention can only be focused on one or a few points.
But he is not good at coordinating the overall situation, taking all factors into consideration, and creating and deducing various situations to achieve the ultimate goal.
The corner of Aunt Lei's lips curled up: "You're a sincere kid. If you dared to show off just now, I promise to turn around and leave, and I won't talk nonsense to you."
Between the question and the answer, Zhuo Mufeng's aura immediately weakened by half. Aunt Lei felt the changes in the auras of both parties and finally was not led by the other party.
She smiled happily and said: "You don't have to belittle yourself. This is the first time I have seen such scheming and courage after living for more than eighty years. It's not that you are incompetent, it's just that you are too good. Even the bad scholars often sigh.
Not as good as."
How could Zhuo Mufeng fail to see the old woman's tricks, but he was eager to know the answer, so he took the initiative to surrender, and said with a cup of his hands: "Auntie, please don't show off. Who is the master who is behind the scenes and scheming the world?
Tell me and let the juniors see it."
Aunt Lei raised her chin slightly, hummed, and after Zhuo Mufeng repeatedly begged, she said kindly: "To tell you the truth, I don't even know who it is."
"Ah?" Zhuo Mufeng obviously didn't believe it.
Aunt Lei knocked the ground with her crutch and shouted: "Don't look like this! What's the point of hiding it on purpose? That person is well hidden, and the demon has always been in contact with him through a single line. According to the demon, he has never even seen him.
The other person’s appearance.
The only time they met, the two sides were separated by a layer of gauze. Yao Dao could vaguely see that the man was wearing a large black cloak, with his hands in his sleeves, and facial makeup. Not an inch of his skin was exposed, and his voice was also disguised.
of.
Even the demons don’t know how tall that person is because he never stood up the whole time.”
Zhuo Mufeng was frightened when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't Taoist Master Tianpuke try it out?"
Aunt Lei said in a daze: "Why not? That person from the Demonic Way is the most curious. But that time, the Demonic Way failed, and he was so frightened that he was sweating all over."
"how come?"
"Because as soon as the demon made a move, an extremely powerful aura came from the void on the other side, forcing the demon to dare not move rashly. According to the demon's speculation, the person lurking in the dark had a high level of martial arts.
, I’m afraid I will never be inferior to him.”
Aunt Lei was lost in memories, with a slightly confused look on her face: "There is mutual induction between masters of the Hexiang Realm. But Yaodao said that he did not sense the existence of the third person from the beginning to the end. In other words, what was hidden at that time
If a third person wants to suddenly attack the demon, he may not be able to react!"
The already lonely courtyard suddenly became even more depressing.
Zhuo Mufeng seemed to be brought into the scene at that time and asked: "Is it possible that the hidden third party is not a master of the Hexiang Realm like me?"
Aunt Lei glanced at him and said angrily: "Do you think there are many freaks like you in the world? Even if you haven't reached the Hexiang realm, you can put pressure on the demon world, and even you can't do it!"
Unexpectedly, the old woman had such a high opinion of him, and Zhuo Mufeng couldn't help but become humble: "There is heaven outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. There may not be anyone in the world who is better than the younger generation."
Aunt Lei was happy. These words clearly put her at the top of the world in terms of qualifications. This guy was really shameless. She gritted her teeth and said, "You said you were fat and you were breathless. The reason why the demon was so sure of the other party at that time was
He is a Hexiang Realm warrior, because he sensed the other party again not long after."
Zhuo Mufeng's eyes flashed slightly.
Aunt Lei: "So we all inferred that that person should have mastered some ancient secret method that can block perception in a short period of time."
"Is there such a secret method in the world? Do you have any clues?"
"Yes! According to Demon Dao, this secret method was briefly described in a certain classic of Tianpuppet Dao. Thousands of years ago, it was the unique skill of a certain killer organization. But later, that killer organization
After being destroyed by others, the whereabouts of this secret technique were also unknown. Yao Dao had read that book many years ago, and his memory was a little fuzzy. Later, he wanted to find it and read it, but unfortunately he couldn't find it."
Zhuo Mufeng didn't expect that there was such a hidden story behind Nuanyang Mountain's conspiracy, and his heart beat inexplicably. His attention quickly returned to the cloaked man: "Has Taoist Priest Tianpupen ever seen that the cloaked man
How is a person’s martial arts?”
Aunt Lei shook her head: "I don't know, but it shouldn't be in the realm of unity. Because the demon can't sense the other party. The secret method of shielding the sense has major flaws. The man in the cloak is obviously the master, so it is unlikely to practice it."
Zhuo Mufeng: "Such a big plan involves the world, Taoist Master Tianpuppet doesn't even know the other party's identity, how can he adopt the other party's plan? Aren't you afraid of being plotted against?"
Aunt Lei: "Of course we won't believe it easily. We even suspected for a time that someone from the Twelve Holy Lands was pretending to be a trap for us. But later, the cloaked man made a conspiracy and joined forces with us to kill the people from Dahuan Mountain.
Former mountain master.
That is a real super master, his martial arts skills are unfathomable. It is impossible for the Twelve Holy Lands to sacrifice such a master just to design us, at least Dahuan Mountain cannot agree.
And so far, no one in Dahuan Mountain knows that the previous mountain master is dead, and they think he is still looking for immortals overseas, hahaha... After that, we also contacted the smelly scholar lurking in Shura Mansion, and we can roughly conclude that it is not
It's some holy places that are causing trouble."
When calculating the number of super masters in the world, Jianghu people usually have a habit of excluding those who have been missing for more than twenty years.
So it is said that there are twenty-five super masters in the Twelve Holy Lands, which is actually not accurate. Counting those who go out to look for opportunities, there should be around thirty.
Of course Zhuo Mufeng knew who the previous owner of Dahuan Mountain was.
That was a peerless master who was famous all over the world. When he was young, he was the best among his contemporaries with unparalleled style. He was recognized as one of the top ten super masters. He had actually been killed?
He was frightened for a while, his face was extremely exciting, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "The martial arts of the former master of Dahuan Mountain was done by one person, and the traces were unpredictable. How could the cloaked man grasp his position, and how could he lead him into a trap?
middle?"
Aunt Lei sighed, with a look of fear on her face: "We don't know for sure. I just know that when we arrived at the agreed place, we saw the target. He was fighting fiercely with another masked man in black, and it was difficult to get away."
Because of the unknown, there is fear, and the fact that the cloaked man planned the battle of Nuanyang Mountain makes people even more fearful of his methods. Even Aunt Lei looked extremely dignified when she mentioned the other party.
