"Welcome to Fellow Daoist Qu. I am Feng Sanniang from the Sixth Lian Palace. I am responsible for presiding over the formation together with you." A middle-aged woman, about forty years old, stood up and said with a smile.
Although this woman cannot be called beautiful, she does have some pretty looks.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Feng, and Qu is so polite." Qu Hun said, neither humble nor overbearing, and then led Bai Ran towards the table.
With a quick glance, Bai Ran also caught sight of several strange monks in the hall.
A middle-aged Confucian scholar with an ordinary appearance, a charming young woman in her twenties, an old man with gray eyes, a young man with a bright red body, plus the woman who calls herself Feng Sanniang, there are exactly five people.
However, the young woman was only at the early stage of foundation building, and she was right next to the Confucian scholar, looking very close to her. It seemed like they were a Taoist couple.
When Bai Ran was thinking about it secretly, Feng Sanniang said with a sweet smile:
"Fellow Daoist Qu came just in time. I am discussing the changes of the 'Six Escaping Water Waves Formation' with you fellow daoists! If you can practice it proficiently beforehand, I think you will be more comfortable when setting up the formation. But here.
Before that, let me introduce other fellow Taoists to Daoist Qu!" Feng Sanniang was obviously very good at dealing with people. As soon as she spoke a few soft words, she immediately brought Bai Ran closer to everyone in the hall.
few.
"These two are Taoist Fellow Mao and his Taoist companion Xue Daoyou, the master of Weixing Island, Senior Zhan Tai!" Feng Sanniang introduced to Bai Ran by pointing to the middle-aged Confucian scholar and young woman.
"Quhun? I know many of the monks on Kuixing Island, but how come I have never heard of you?" The middle-aged scholar looked at Bai Ran coldly and said somewhat arrogantly.
For some reason, this middle-aged Confucian scholar seemed a little displeased with Qu Hun, and he always said something offending.
This made Feng Sanniang's originally smiling expression pause for a moment...but she immediately returned to normal.
"I'm not a monk on Kuixing Island originally, but I just recently came to the island to see my nephew Bai who has settled here. Fellow Taoist, I don't know Qu's name. What's so strange! Besides, this is the first time I've heard of your place name."
Qu Hun retorted calmly.
"you……"
"Let me introduce you. This old gentleman is Taoist Fellow Qing Suanzi from the Hermitage on Jinlie Island. Although few people know it, he is a master of wood magic and has few enemies during the foundation building period! As for Fellow Taoist Yan, he is even more powerful, especially
Dark fire body, one hand of pure Yang true fire can be cultivated to perfection."
The middle-aged Confucian scholar showed an angry expression, his face darkened and he wanted to say something more, but the woman hurriedly interrupted him and distracted him.
"Friend Daoist Qing! Fellow Daoist Yan!" Qu Hun looked at the old man and the young man and nodded slightly.
Although these two people were at the same late stage of foundation building as the Confucian scholar, the pressure on Bai Ran was obviously far greater than that of the middle-aged Confucian scholar. It was obvious that the skills they practiced were not trivial. Bai Ran was not willing to offend these two people easily.
“The track is friendly!”
"Yan is polite!"
The two of them didn't make excuses either. They also smiled and gestured to Qu Hun.
This scene made the middle-aged Confucian scholar feel even more uncomfortable.
So, before Feng Sanniang could say anything else, he suddenly stood up and said with a straight face:
"I want to go back to the house and meditate for a while. We can talk about the formation later!"
After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the hall with a flick of his sleeves. The young woman looked at a few people apologetically and followed her out.
"Hmph! What's so arrogant? Will there be a master who will be the owner of the island soon?" The young man surnamed Yan blushed and said with some annoyance.
The expressions of the old man and Feng Sanniang also changed slightly, but the old man immediately became expressionless, while Feng Sanniang forced Qu Hun to sit down with a forced smile, as if she didn't want to talk about the Confucian scholar.
"Aren't there supposed to be six people talking? Isn't that Fellow Daoist Xue also one of the people presiding over the formation?" Qu Hun asked calmly after sitting down unceremoniously. Bai Ran stood behind him in a low-key manner.
"There is also a fellow Taoist Dou from Huaming Island, but it is said that he is practicing a powerful skill. He will not leave the house these days." Feng Sanniang smiled and explained.
"Oh, that's right!" Bai Ran nodded and said nothing more.
But Feng Sanniang seemed to be very interested in Qu Hun. From time to time, she asked some irrelevant questions. Bai Ran, who was standing behind Qu Hun, was a little surprised and wondered what the woman's intention was.
However, when he asked Qu Hun if he knew the "Sixty Years Water Wave Formation", Qu Hun, under Bai Ran's instruction, of course denied it.
So, the woman smiled and said that none of the other people knew it, and began to explain the secrets of this formation to the three of them.
Get wonderful.
It’s really surprising that Feng Sanniang is a rare formation master!
…
Although the middle-aged Confucian scholar seemed to have some problems with several others, he finally returned to the hall after the second day and listened to Feng Sanniang explain what should be paid attention to when hosting this formation.
After all, the Sixth Company Palace invited them here just to preside over this formation!
Three or four days later, Bai Ran finally saw another monk who was retreating in the house. He was a bald man seven feet tall. He had a sinewy face and looked extremely vicious. However, this man's words
He has a very forthright demeanor and gets along well with others.
In this way, after listening to Feng Sanniang's explanation of the secrets of the formation, Bai Ran and others would often stop the ship and then fly out to the nearby sea area to constantly discuss the evolution and coordination of the "Six Escape Water Wave Formation".
When he was able to successfully capture the monster in one fell swoop, everyone was happy.
As a result, the sea ship naturally cannot move very fast, but the Sixth Lian Palace does not seem to be in a hurry. Although it stops and goes, Feng Sanniang is always smiling without any hint of urging.
But after she became extremely proficient in practicing several changes in the formation, Feng Sanniang did not waste any more time and let the ship start moving forward at full speed.
A month later, the ship finally anchored and stopped beside an unnamed desert island more than ten miles in size.
Bai Ran and others walked out of the ship under the leadership of Feng Sanniang.
As soon as they set foot on the island, a dazzling golden light flew from the sky. After hovering in front of a few people, the golden light dissipated, revealing an old man with a pale golden face, staring at them expressionlessly.
.
There was no mana fluctuation in this man's body. He looked like an ordinary person with no mana at all, and he also seemed to have unfathomable mana that could be controlled easily. This made Bai Ran's heart tremble.
"Subordinate Feng Sanniang, please see Elder Miao!" Feng Sanniang stepped forward without hesitation and bowed deeply to the old man, saying with a respectful look on her face.
At this time, Bai Ran and others standing behind him, who did not know the identity of this person, came forward one after another to salute him. A monk in the alchemy stage was not someone they could take lightly.
"No need to be polite! Feng Sanniang, you did a good job this time. You brought these helpers in time! Have they practiced the formations well? The monsters to be dealt with this time are very difficult, don't be careless!" The old man
He said slowly without changing his expression."
"Elder, don't worry, all fellow Taoists have completely mastered the various changes of the 'Six Escape Water Wave Formation' and can definitely trap this beast!" Feng Sanniang said confidently.
"Okay! Fellow Taoists, our Sixth Company Hall needs help from a few of you. As long as you do your best, this hall will definitely not treat you badly." The elder surnamed Miao glanced at the Confucian scholars, and his expressions softened and changed.
You have to look kind and cheerful.
"Senior, don't worry, we will do our best!" Before anyone else could speak, the middle-aged Confucian scholar spoke first, with an apologetic smile on his face.
Seeing the Confucian scholar's flattery, several other people had strange expressions on their faces, but they could only echo the same sentiment.
Elder Miao was extremely satisfied with everyone's attitude. After nodding slightly, he said:
"The formation has been set up half a day ago. All you have to do is go and preside over it. The ancient elder is chasing the monster in the nearby sea. I will lure the beast here with him. It is estimated that tomorrow morning
, we should be able to introduce this beast into the big formation, then it will depend on your ability. You should take a short rest on the island first!"
After saying that, Elder Miao turned into a golden light and flew into the sky, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
"Several Taoist friends have heard what Elder Miao said. Let's rest for half a day and recuperate. There will be a tough battle tomorrow!" Feng Sanniang looked back and said solemnly.
At this point, the others naturally stopped saying anything else and nodded to express their understanding.
But at this moment, Qing Suanzi, who had rarely spoken along the way, suddenly asked numbly.
"Fellow Daoist Feng, along the way we asked you what kind of monster you wanted to deal with, but you still refused to say it clearly. But you are about to take action tomorrow. Isn't it time to tell us the truth?"
After hearing this old man's question, several others couldn't help but feel moved in their hearts, and they all fixed their eyes on Feng Sanniang.
They also have this question. What kind of ferocious and rare species is this monster that is worthy of such a big war by the Sixth Company Palace and planning for so long? Ordinary level six monsters are not worthy of this!
