Of course it is impossible to use force. How can you use force against your wife?
But if he gives in a little bit, the other party will immediately realize something is wrong just like An Zhisu did - if the two of them have never been similar before, why should he give in to her?
Therefore, Chen Guanshui adopted a tough attitude and said:
"I'm used to walking alone, and I'm not used to walking with others. Take my leave."
"Wait a minute!" Shi Liuli quickly called him to stop, but Chen Guanshui ignored him at all and just walked away.
This market area may not seem big, but it is actually quite large. Various criss-crossing houses surround many complicated and rugged lanes that can easily hide dirt and evil.
Should I use my sword to fly at a low altitude and explore all these lanes?
While Chen Guanshui was thinking this, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Wait, the reason why I wanted to hide here in the first place is that the cave here can shield Shi Liuli's arithmetic exploration.
However, Shi Liuli has already found him through some other means. Do I still need to stay here?
Otherwise, let's run away?
Such thoughts arose in Chen Guanshui's heart, but were soon extinguished again.
It's very simple. Although Shi Liuli has found this place, the effect of the shielding arithmetic still exists, so she cannot confirm her identity.
But if you leave the other cave, and then Shi Liuli follows him out, and then count...then it's over, right?
Back then, even when I hid in the secret realm of the giant tree, the other party was able to find me!
Chen Guanshui had a severe headache, and his consciousness swept back, and sure enough he found Shi Liuli following him secretly.
Or to be more precise, she tried to be sneaky, but in fact she was completely exposed to her own vision.
Chen Guanshui became more and more helpless, thinking to himself that he could neither leave nor stay, so what should he do?
On the other side, after Xu Yinglian shook off the mud bark behind him, he looked at the strange environment around him and felt a little irritable for a while.
In such a huge cave, where can we find its secrets?
After careful inspection for a moment, she determined that she should be on a certain hill. There were dense trees and beautiful flowers everywhere, but there were not a single bird or insect, and it seemed quiet and lifeless.
Looking down from the hill, there is a huge city below, cut into many urban areas by high walls like spider webs.
Some urban areas are obvious markets, with wide main roads and large open spaces; others are lined with residential buildings, mostly short and dilapidated.
From common sense, these urban areas should be for civilians to survive, so where should monks live?
Xu Yinglian looked behind him, which was the palace on the top of the hill and the highest point of the entire city.
Suddenly, a ray of sword light shot out from a distance, and then stopped in front of Xu Yinglian. As expected, it was An Zhisu who was a man and a sword.
"Are you still alive?" An Zhisu said in surprise.
Xu Yinglian's face immediately darkened. Can he speak? If he can't speak, can't he shut up?
"The monster attacks very fast." Seeing her ugly face, An Zhisu explained, "I relied on my footwork to get rid of them."
"Of course I also have a secret method." Although the Tao method that he can use the flames to travel through is not a secret in the Kunlun Taiqing Sect, Xu Yinglian doesn't want to explain it to the other party.
"That's fine." An Zhisu breathed a sigh of relief, "At least if we go together, you won't hold me back."
Xu Yinglian's mood became worse and worse, and she questioned:
"Why should I go with you?"
"Aren't you looking for a secluded cave?" An Zhisu asked.
"That's right." Xu Yinglian said perfunctorily.
"I also want to find a secluded cave." An Zhisu said matter-of-factly, "Since the goal is the same, why not do it the same way?"
Why do they have to go together if they have the same goal? Xu Yinglian couldn't understand her thinking, but she wisely did not dwell on this topic and just walked silently towards the bottom of the hill.
"Why don't you go up?" An Zhisu asked again.
"If there are enemies, the enemies above may be even more powerful." Xu Yinglian said casually, "I was born in Dongyou
Penglai is not good at fighting. I don’t think she will run up there... She should be hiding in some secret and safe place waiting for us to find her."
"It makes sense." An Zhisu said in a thoughtful tone, although it was not clear from her expression that she was using her brain.
The two of them walked down the mountain road until they entered the densely populated city again. Xu Yinglian suddenly asked:
"Speaking of which, why did the Taiyin Sword Master suddenly leave the sect?"
"I don't know." Speaking of this, An Zhisu also became depressed. Seeing her cold attitude, Xu Yinglian wisely stopped talking.
After a while, An Zhisu seemed to have something to say and sighed:
"The most difficult thing to understand in this world is the human heart."
"Yes." Xu Yinglian felt the same way, "Even if you get along day and night, who can say that you really understand the other person completely?"
These words resonated with An Zhisu - thinking of Junior Brother Ling's determination to avoid seeing him, his heart became even more painful.
Next, the two of them started talking to each other one after another.
But I don’t know if it’s because of personality incompatibility or bad mood, but every time I can’t say more than two or three sentences, the conversation ends, and I can’t communicate at all later.
Opposite to the direction of the city where the two of them were, in the market area on the other side of the city, Chen Guanshui was boredly looking for Ni Weiluo to kill.
Shi Liuli followed step by step.
She recognized that what Chen Guanshui was using was a very ancient and rare secret technique: The Universe in the Sleeve.
It has to be said that this sealing secret method is extremely effective in restraining the devil. Just throw the sleeve of the robe casually and the opponent can be tucked into the sleeve, without any chance of escaping.
And in my memory, I have never seen that bastard mastering this secret technique.
Shi Liuli wanted to ask about the origin of this technique, but after all, it was a relatively important private secret. He knew that the other party would definitely not answer, so he could only guess secretly in his heart.
After Chen Guanshui cleared all the monsters in the market, he turned around and returned to the market.
Shi Liuli followed him to the center of the street and saw a light black three-dimensional light door slowly emerging from the void.
"What is this?" she asked curiously.
Chen Guanshui ignored her and just stepped into it.
The field of vision changed rapidly, and the surrounding light also dimmed.
Shi Liuli followed into the small cave and saw shadowy figures with twisted limbs and weird shapes all around him. He almost screamed out of fright.
But seeing that Chen Guanshui turned a blind eye to these shadows, she didn't react at all. She just followed him silently with her head lowered, like a docile little daughter-in-law returning to her husband's house with her husband.
Entering a nearby house, it was completely dark inside and it was impossible to see anything.
Shi Liuli was thinking about getting some light out, but she heard Chen Guanshui suddenly say:
"The mud bark in this area has been cleaned up."
"Great." A hoarse, low voice sounded in the distance, as if the vocal cords had been wiped with sandpaper. "The Nivelulu from other urban areas will definitely seep in slowly, but those are things for the future."
"After the market is cleaned up, I hope fellow Taoists can help us confirm something from the government office."
"Yamen office?" Chen Guanshui asked.
"After you go out, just walk along the main road and you'll be there." Shadow said, "The government office used to be a city guard facility responsible for maintaining public security. There were not only mortal police officers, but also deacons from the golden elixir stage to guard it. On average, every four
There is a government office for every city district, which is set up at the intersection of the city boundaries."
"A certain senior...the one who opened the cave here for us originally said he was going to pick up some things from the government office, but as soon as he left, he never came back."
Although there is a high probability that he has died, we still want to ask fellow Taoists to confirm for us
Next. Of course, if there is anything left behind, fellow Taoists, please put it away properly.
"Yeah." Chen Guanshui responded and was about to turn around and leave when he heard Shi Liuli ask:
"Are you monks from the Yuting Sect? Are you alive from a long time ago?"
The shadow didn't answer, seeming to be guessing about the relationship between the two.
Shi Liuli wanted to ask again, but Chen Guanshui had already pushed the door open and walked out, so she could only follow him quickly.
The two of them left the dark cave again and returned to the huge city at Yutingmen. Chen Guanshui quickly confirmed the location of the main road and only heard Shi Liuli say:
"Their words may not be credible."
"Nonsense." Chen Guanshui said lightly, "Do I look like the kind of fool who believes everything the other party says?"
"Then why do you still do things for him?" Shi Liuli asked with a frown.
Chen Guanshui asked, "Does this young lady really not know, or is she pretending not to know, just to test and see my reaction?"
After considering his words for a while, he answered:
"The secret techniques and secret treasures left behind by Yu Ting Sect have to be obtained from the hands of these shadow monks. The reason why I work for them is just a temporary measure."
"In this way, this shadow seems to be similar to that of Ni Weiluo, and it is also the product of some kind of demon." Shi Liuli said in a deep voice, "I have seen it in ancient books before, saying that in ancient times, before the sky was mended, there was such a thing
The 'Tianmo Cult,."
"Different from the Demonic Way that enslaves the Demons today, the Demonic Way of that day was mainly based on the worship of Demons. They often robbed people and conducted large-scale human sacrifices in order to create monks who became Demonized. Those whose souls have died but whose bodies are immortal are called "mud"
In the Vāra, there are also those whose bodies are withered but whose souls are deep, which are called "ghost Yamas."
"Why does it sound so similar to the corpse-refining ghost-refining method of Yingui Dao?" Chen Guanshui said pretending to be stupid.
"The body and the soul are originally two completely different cultivation methods." Shi Liuli gave him some popular science and said, "The Yin Ghost Dao has corpse cultivation and ghost cultivation. Naturally, the Demon Cult also has two methods: demonized body and demonized soul.
It’s a faction, but no matter which route it takes, its level of strength is far from that of the real Great Heavenly Demon.”
"So that's it." Chen Guanshui pretended to be relaxed and asked Shi Liuli, "What should I do next based on what fellow Taoist sees?"
When Shi Liuli saw him throwing the question back to her, she was not discouraged by the fruitless temptation. Instead, she thought seriously for a moment and answered:
"How about we go to the government office first and have a look?"
