After summarizing some details of the village relocation, Qin Long and the two of them started preparations separately with solemn expressions. Lu Chen glanced at Zhuge Tian, who was drunk in the crowd, pondered for a moment, and gave up the idea of talking to him.
The next morning, the villagers packed up their things early and gathered in the village square, reluctantly looking at their homes.
The shadow of the previous massacre of the village by the Sand Bandits did not dissipate because of the decline of the Fan family. When Qinlong told them that some families were determined to obtain the iron mines and would face another crisis of massacre at any time, everyone fell silent.
Qin Yu was the only one who didn't want to be separated from Lu Chen. Xinghua Daiyu cried and coaxed her for a long time. After promising to come and join him as soon as possible, her tears turned into a smile.
There have been enough horse-drawn carriages to purchase food supplies in the village recently, and with the thousand taels of gold given by Lu Chen as settlement expenses, many worn-out furniture and sundries have been discarded, making the move much smoother than expected.
Just as the migrating team was about to set off, Zhuge Tian, who had been silent all the time, approached Lu Chen with a smile, "I have traveled to the Southern Barbarian Territory for many years. That sect in the east is not popular at all. A fart from the Zuntian Dao Palace can overturn it.
, why don’t we go a few hundred miles further to the west, the Shitian Sect there will not be easily provoked by the Zuntian Dao Palace."
Lu Chen didn't know what the sect in the east was, but he had heard of the name of Shitian Sect, the second overlord in the Southern Barbarian Domain, and was only slightly inferior to Zuntian Dao Palace.
Recently, Zhuge Tian was treating the wounded in the village, and they often drank and chatted together. He behaved quite well. After thinking about it for a while, Qin Long and others also persuaded Lu Chen to agree.
The backs of the distant villagers disappeared from sight. Lu Chen glanced at the village where he grew up with nostalgia, then suddenly turned around and headed straight for the Sunset Mountains.
In Kuangsha Town, Fei Qianqiu, the Taoist master of the Zuntian Taoist Temple, looked livid and shouted angrily: "What? There are more than thirty elites in the Chen Martial Realm. One day has passed and they still haven't caught the orphans and widows. It's a big joke! His name is Qingyun.
Come see me quickly!"
The Taoist priest in green who was kneeling in the hall was so frightened that he said in a trembling voice: "Return to Taoist Master, Taoist Master Qingyun and others have not returned yet."
Fei Qianqiu raised his eyebrows slightly. Qingyun was a very strict person. Even if the task was not completed within the time limit, he would send someone back to deliver the message. But now there was no news, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
"There is no need to wait for the integration of the various families. I ordered 90% of the Taoist soldiers in the temple to be led by the Young Master himself. They went to the iron mines in the Sunset Mountains and massacred all the surrounding villages. We must ensure that the news about the ruins is not leaked." Fei Qianqiu.
Cold voice said.
"Yes!" A charming young man flashed out from below.
"Deputy Temple Master Yu Jiao, led 50% of the elites in the Demon Suppression Tower to the mountains, found the entrance to the ruins and guarded it tightly, so that no evil beast holding the Haotian Order can enter!"
"Follow your orders!" A dignified old Taoist dressed in purple stepped out of the queue.
Half an hour later, the powerful Zuntian Taoist Temple was like a war machine, completely activated. Thousands of Taoist soldiers with bright armor poured out of Kuangsha Town like a rolling torrent. Hundreds of Taoists in green, full of blood, turned into Taoists.
The blood flowed away like dust.
The major families in the town who were busy carving up the Fan family's property clearly felt Fei Qianqiu's dissatisfaction. They came to plead guilty, paid a large sum of money and materials, and took the initiative to send masters above the Chenwu realm of the family to Zuntian Dao Temple to wait for orders.
The Sunset Mountains stretch for hundreds of miles, and the iron ore mine that Fan Jian mentioned happened to be in the mountains surrounded by several slaughtered villages. Lu Chen walked into the mountains for sixty or seventy miles before finding the location of the iron ore.
The iron ore was not being mined at this time. Two purple-clothed old Taoists from the third realm of Chenwu were supervising forty or fifty Taoists to tirelessly search for something around the mine.
Lu Chen's heart moved slightly, "If they had really discovered the location of the ruins, they would have heavily guarded it. If they wanted to get in, they would have to alert the enemy. Now it seems there is still a chance to get in before them!"
I quietly stepped back and searched a large circle around me, but apart from the dense jungle and the rocks, there was no trace of the ruins at all. How to find the ruins?
Suddenly, Lu Chen felt a slight heat in his arms. He took it out and saw that the simple and elegant Haotian Ling was slightly hot at this time and emitted a faint fluorescence. He tried to move a distance in four directions and found that the fluorescence on the surface was moving towards
To the northeast, it gets a little brighter.
After running for four or five miles in the northeast direction, I finally arrived in front of a waterfall and pool. The fluorescence became a bit dazzling and the token was hot.
"The ruins are nearby!" Just as Lu Chen was about to search carefully, a clear chirping sound suddenly came from the sky. Suddenly he looked up and saw an eagle circling hundreds of meters above his head, screaming continuously.
"Not good! I was discovered!"
Lu Chen suddenly took out a few flying knives from his arms and threw them violently. A dazzling bloody light shot up into the sky. The falcon quickly raised his head to dodge, but he did not expect that the flying knives suddenly accelerated and changed direction, heading straight towards it.
Without enough time to see the results of the battle, Lu Chen jumped behind a boulder, held a few flying knives in his hand, calmed down and stared in the direction of the mine vigilantly.
Plop!
The falcon fell to the ground and became a meat pie. Not long after, two bloody figures were seen flying towards them. They were surprisingly the two strong men from the third realm of Chenwu who led the team from Zuntian Taoist Temple.
An eagle-eyed Taoist glanced around like lightning and shouted in a cold voice: "If you dare to kill my Taoist temple eagle, don't come out and die!"
"Here!" Another Taoist raised his eyebrows and swung his sword straight to a bush and stabbed it.
Jiji!
A palm-sized white bird jumped out with a scream, its clear little eyes looked at the old man cutely, and its feathers were still wet.
"Fuck! It's a bird!" The Taoist stamped his feet in annoyance and drew his sword to stab it to death.
Roar!
A terrifying roar suddenly sounded, and the two Taoists suddenly changed their colors. As soon as they raised their swords, they saw gusts of wind blowing around them, hot lava pouring in from all directions, and countless ghosts and ghosts jumping out of them and rushing toward them with claws and teeth.
"You bastard ghost, you still don't back away when you see the Taoist Master!" The old Taoist Eagle Eye cursed repeatedly, and slammed the long sword in his hand with a huge burst of blood. However, he was shocked to find that all the attacks were like stones, and had no effect at all. On the contrary, they were ignored.
Countless spears and swords fell from the sky, trying to pierce him.
"Go to hell! The sea of blood is making waves!" In the eyes of another veteran, among the ghosts in the sky, there was a green-faced evil ghost with fangs rushing towards him, and he couldn't help roaring and used a special move.
"How dare you be so arrogant, you evil beast!" The old Taoist Eagle Eye also used a series of unique moves.
The two were about equal in strength, and they were fighting indistinguishably in the illusion. Lu Chen's two flying knives wrapped in flames were mixed in with the overwhelming sharp weapons. They were inconspicuous. By the time they were alerted, it was already too late.
!
puff!
The throats of both of them screamed and were penetrated at the same time, and the illusion around them disappeared completely. It was only then that they discovered that the person who killed them turned out to be a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy!
Unwilling! Painful! Annoyed!
The two of them died in frustration with endless negative emotions, and their blood essence and soul became Lu Chen's nourishment.
After confirming that no Taoist followed, Lu Chen cleaned up the remaining items and traces of the two people. He unexpectedly found a paper roll. When he opened it, his face suddenly became a little ugly.
