"So now I can only rely on you, brother Qin." Xue Wuding said solemnly.

Qin Tian suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders became heavier.

At this moment, Ao Jiao, who was leaning against the corner, woke up and saw the three people talking in front of her. When she saw Qin Tian, ​​all she could think about was what Zong Yi had sent her. Order.

Kill Qin Tian!

Her eyes suddenly flashed with cold light, she reached out and grabbed the ice blade formed from the air, and rushed towards Qin Tian with a ferocious expression.

At this time, Qin Tian had no sense of defense against Ao Jiao behind him. In addition, all his thoughts were on how to eliminate Zong Yi, so he did not notice it.

Even Ao Bing is the same.

Only Xue Wuding accidentally caught a glimpse of this scene.

When he saw Ao Jiao rushing towards Qin Tian like crazy, he reached out to Ao Jiao without even thinking.

"Body-holding technique!!"

Qin Tian and Ao Bing were confused by Xue Wuding's sudden movement.

When I turned my head in the direction he pointed, I was immediately frightened.

I saw the ice blade in Ao Jiao’s hand just shy of hitting the back of Qin Tian’s head. The sharp ice blade exuded an eerie cold light. If it were hit by this thing, I’m afraid it would It’s time to return directly to the west.

"Let me go!! Let me go!! I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"

Ao Jiao tried her best to break free from Xue Wuding's immobilization technique , his eyes showed a ruthless look.

Ao Bing looked at Ao Jiao like this, with an extremely complicated expression. He stretched out his hand, and a cold light entered Ao Jiao's forehead. Ao Jiao rolled her eyes and fainted again.

Before Ao Jiao fell to the ground, Ao Bing held her in his arms and looked at Qin Tian apologetically.

"Qin Tian, ​​I'm sorry, it's all because of our relationship that has dragged you down. If it weren't for us, we would probably have reached the corner of the sea by now."

"Just now, my little sister almost gave you..."

Qin Tian stood up, patted Ao Bing's shoulder and comforted: "This has nothing to do with you, it's all because of Zong Yi that you became what you are. So, besides, Ao Jiao didn't hurt me, so you don't have to blame yourself."

Ao Bing felt even more guilty when he heard what Qin Tian said.

"Qin Tian, ​​why don't you go to the Cape of the Sea first? Leave me and my little sister alone. Getting the colorful stones is the most important thing now."

" Now Brother Qin is afraid that he won't be able to go to the corner of the sea." Xue Wuding suddenly said.

“Why?” Ao Bing looked confused.

You are wanted all over the land."

"..."

Ao Bing's pupils trembled again and again, his expression was extremely complicated, which was a bit difficult to accept.

It was obvious that he had no memory of what happened while he was being controlled.

He didn’t even know that he had revealed his identity, which led to people from all over the Cape of the Sea continent to round them up.

Seeing that Ao Bing looked wrong, Qin Tian patted him on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to blame yourself. You were controlled by Zong Yi involuntarily at that time, and it was only a matter of time before our identities were exposed. "

"And now is not the time to blame ourselves. Instead of regretting, we should think about how to face the next difficulties."

"Brother Qin is right. "Xue Wuding echoed: "Now that your identities have been exposed, let alone whether you can escape from the Cape of the Sea land, even if you escape to the Cape of the Sea, the sharks on the bottom of the sea will not let you go."
< br /> Qin Tian added: "But as long as we can catch Zong Yi, it will be much easier to ask King Shark for the colorful stones."

After speaking, Qin Tian paused and looked at A glance at Ao Jiao in Ao Bing's arms: "So whether it's for the colorful stone or to help Ao Jiao regain her consciousness, we have to catch Zong Yi."

Ao Bing looked embarrassed. : "But with just the strength of the three of us, let alone entering the palace, it will be difficult to break through the pursuers outside, right?"

"So now we need helpers."

"Help?"

Qin Tian nodded: "During your absence, I met a few people in Yuancheng, and there was a powerful senior, that is, Xu The old man, and his apprentice, Miss Xi'er."

"Also, in fact, Miss Fan's true identity is the princess of the Shark tribe, and Miss Fan also promised to help us, I believe they have With my help, everything can be solved easily."

Ao Bing looked delighted: "I didn't expect that you got to know so many reliable people during my absence."

"Now I will give them a spiritual message first and ask them to come and join us."

Qin Tian then sent a message.

“Strange?” Qin Tian looked confused.

　“What’s wrong?”

　“The divine consciousness cannot be transmittedgo out. "

Qin Tian tried several times in a row, but the sound transmission seemed to be hindered by something. He called back halfway.

Xue Wuding pondered for a moment and raised his voice. He raised his head and looked out the window and said, "I think it's caused by the barrier. ”

This barrier was put down the night before the ceremony to prevent people from leaving the city.

While restricting people from leaving the city, this barrier also Restricting the transmission of spiritual consciousness.

Qin Tian looked at the barrier outside the window, his eyebrows almost twisted into knots.

"How about this, wait until later When the time comes, let’s use the invisibility method to go out and see... um..."

Suddenly, Ao Bing’s expression became solemn, he covered Qin Tian’s mouth, and looked out the door warily. .

　“Hush, there’s someone outside. ”

　“? "Qin Tian looked confused.

"Rustling..."

The next second, Qin Tian's ears twitched slightly and he heard the sound of wind and grass outside. He looked carefully Listen, you can still hear a faint sound of footsteps.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, they should be about five hundred meters away from the ruined temple.

The three people instantly became alert and stood up. I got up and stuck myself behind the wall. Through the leaky window, I saw several figures walking slowly outside the window.

But because of the branches and leaves blocking it, and the distance being a bit far away, I couldn’t stand it. I can't see their faces clearly, I just know that there are quite a few people on the other side.

Although I can't see their faces clearly, I can hear their current conversation clearly.

"Damn it, where did Zhang San and his accomplices hide, leaving it easy for me to find them. "

"His grandma's best not to let me find them, otherwise I will torture them severely. "

"As long as you find them, they will have two billion, and they can also be promoted to a noble position. Look carefully. "

" "There seems to be a ruined temple in front, are they hiding in it?" "

"Let's go in and have a look. "

When he heard this, Xue Wuding's face tightened, he took out the Five Dragons Golden Sword and stood behind the door. As long as they dare to come in, he will kill one by one or a pair of them.

Just as they were about to enter the ruined temple, a man suddenly stopped them.

“Wait a minute, this ruined temple has only one entrance. What if they really If they are inside, they must be waiting to ambush us now. ”

When the person behind the man heard this, his face suddenly froze and he was a little afraid.

"Then what should we do? If they ambush us, there won't be enough people."

"How about this? I'll go in and help you keep an eye on it. If the situation arises, you can respond in time."

"Brother Liu, you are such a good person. If you have an accident, I will definitely help you take care of your wife and children."

"Then let's do it."

But just as Brother Liu was about to walk towards the ruined temple, a man ran over in a hurry.

“Brother, someone three hundred meters north said that Zhang San was found!”

“Is it true?”

“Qian Zhen It's true, that man ran away in the direction of Tongfu Inn. If we don't chase him, we won't be able to get the money."

"What should we do about this ruined temple? Should we search it again?"
/>
Brother Liu replied: "How about you go after me first, and I will search this ruined temple."

"Brother Liu, you are really generous. If we If I catch Zhang San, I will definitely give you a sum of money."

After saying that, those people left without looking back and headed to the north of the ruined temple.

Only Brother Liu remained outside the ruined temple.

After those people left, Brother Liu slowly groped outside the ruined temple and tiptoed to the door.

He pushed open the wooden door and made a harsh "squeak" sound. Qin Tian looked along the crack of the door and happened to meet the eyes of the person outside the door.

Qin Tian looked stunned, why was it him?

At this moment, the Five Dragon Golden Sword in Xue Wuding’s hand had been raised.

The visitor heard the sharp wind behind him, looked back and saw a sharp sword light approaching. He took a breath of fear and froze in place.

"Wait a minute..."

Just when Xue Wuding was about to kill the man with the sword, Qin Tian reached out to stop him.

"Brother Qin, why are you stopping me?" Xue Wuding was puzzled.

“I know this person.” Qin Tian replied.

Ao Bing, who was standing aside, quickly recognized this person.

“Are you the innkeeper in Deng Shatuo?”

After Ao Bing’s reminder, Xue Wuding also recalled it.

Outside Shanhai School, the shopkeeper even spoke to Qin Tian.

Xue Wuding did not move his handHe put away the Five Dragon Golden Sword in his hand and looked at him with doubt: "Why are you with those who are chasing us?"

Liu Zhaocai was so frightened that his face is still pale even now. Yes, he swallowed and explained: "I did this for a reason. Mr. Zhang, you have to believe me. They and I are not the same group. You saved our Deng Jiangtuo before, how could I harm you?" Here."

Xue Wuding grabbed Qin Tian to dissuade him.

"Brother Qin, don't believe him. In this world today, some people still have power and can do all kinds of crazy things for the sake of money. Being ungrateful is nothing. It's better for us to kill him and silence him. "

When Liu Zhaocai heard this, his face instantly turned pale with fright. He waved his hands and explained: "If I were really on the same team with them, I wouldn't have let anyone deliberately lure them away just now. Zhang Young Master, you believe me!"

"The person who just said that we fled to Tongfu Inn was arranged by you?"

"Yes, if you look carefully If so, that person just now is a resident of Dengjiangtuo." Liu Zhaocai jumped anxiously.

After Liu Zhaocai said this, Qin Tian recalled that that person was indeed a resident of Dengjiangtuo.

"Furthermore, I said before when you entered the palace that no matter what your status is, we will support you. Have you forgotten?" Liu Zhaocai continued anxiously: "Xu The old man said, if you don't believe me, I will give him his name and you will believe me."

"Mr. Xu? Did Mr. Xu call you here?" Qin Tian was surprised. road.

Liu Zhaocai nodded.

Qin Tian and Xue Wuding looked at each other and finally chose to believe him.

I only dared to come in after confirming that no one was following me." Liu Zhaocai assured.

Qin Tian looked outside the door and found that there was indeed no one outside, so he pulled him into the ruined temple.

"Shopkeeper Liu, please sit down first." Qin Tian pointed casually.

Liu Zhaocai nodded, found a haystack and sat down, caressing his chest to calm his little heart that almost jumped out just now.

"Shopkeeper Liu, what is going on? How do you know Mr. Xu?" Qin Tian asked curiously.

Liu Zhaocai first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Actually, the thing is like this, last night my fellow villagers and I were drinking in a tavern, and suddenly there was an old Taoist priest and a tall one following him.A fairy-like woman came running to us. "

After hearing Liu Zhaocai's description, Qin Tian knew it was Mr. Xu and Xi'er without even thinking.

"What happened next? "

Liu Zhaocai said in a panic: "Later he took out a Shark King Token and placed it in front of us. We almost fell off our stools in fright. We are just a few who are not very high in cultivation. Ordinary residents who had never seen such a scene knelt down in front of him. "

After sighing, he continued: "Then Mr. Xu took us to talk about something, gave us a task, and gave me a tips bag. "

"Task? What tasks have been assigned to you? "Qin Tian asked curiously.

Liu Zhaocai replied: "Mr. Xu said that I can't tell you this for the time being. "

Qin Tian smacked his lips: "Okay, then how did you find this place? "

Liu Zhaocai: "Actually, I wasn't the one who found this place. I was instructed to come here by the tip bag given to me by Mr. Xu. "

"Mr. Xu told me before he left that after you left the palace, he asked me to open this bag of tips, saying that this bag of tips could help him find you. "

"Then I followed Mr. Xu's instructions and opened the brocade bag, and a few words flew out of it, saying "Restaurant Temple in the South of the City", and then I came over. ”

After listening to Liu Zhaocai’s words, Qin Tian was slightly shocked.

Mr. Xu handed the tips bag to Shopkeeper Liu last night, so that means that he had already I already know what will happen today.

Mr. Xu is indeed not simple.

, then how did you get together with that group of people? "

Liu Zhaocai replied: "On the way here, I found that a group of immortal cultivators who were chasing you were also preparing to come here, so I joined their ranks. "

"Later, I learned through chatting with them that they didn't know you were here, and they just came to check with a try attitude. I was worried that you were really here, and then I asked my The fellow villager sent a spiritual message and asked him to lead people away. "

"That's it. Qin Tian nodded in realization, then changed the subject and asked, "Then why did Mr. Xu ask you to come to me?" "

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot to get down to business. Liu Zhaocai then remembered the purpose of coming here: "Mr. Xu said that you will definitely be impulsive after escaping from the palace, so let me stop you." "

"..."

The corners of Qin Tian's mouth twitched in embarrassment.

Looking at Qin Tian’s expression, Liu Zhaocai knew that Mr. Xu was right.

In fact, before Liu Zhaocai came, Qin Tian really planned to find a way to enter the palace again later.

But before he could implement his idea, Liu Zhaocai came.

Liu Zhaocai pointed to the center of the ruined temple.

"Mr. Xu asked Mr. Zhang to hurry up and cultivate during this period. He drew a small world behind the Buddha statue for you to hide."

Follow Liu Zhaocai Looking in the direction pointed at, there was indeed a damaged Buddha statue there.

When you walk behind the Buddha statue, there is indeed a small black hole.

"I didn't expect Mr. Xu to think of this step." Qin Tian looked at the small world behind the Buddha statue and couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Zhaocai stood up, raised his hands to Qin Tian and said: "Master Zhang, please hide here for the time being. Don't go out. There are people chasing you everywhere outside. I will tell you every once in a while I'll come over and tell you what's happening in the outside world."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Shopkeeper Liu."

"It's not hard, then I'll leave first if nothing happens. Done."

After speaking, Liu Zhaocai turned and left.

After Liu Zhaocai left, Qin Tian and the others also entered the small world.

　…

“Ouch, it hurts so much!”

“It hurts... Can anyone help me? It hurts so much... …"

Several hours had passed since Qin Tian escaped from the palace. The palace was full of wounded people, lying on the ground groaning in pain.

The officials in the hall, the eighteen captains, the eight generals, and the guards were all seriously injured to varying degrees.

They were all injured by Qin Tian alone.

At this time, Zong Yi had finished practicing his exercises to heal his injuries. He stood up and looked at the wounded with a frown.

He thought hard for a moment, then circulated the Dantian in his body, and a stream of true energy condensed in the palm of his hand.

I saw him pushing his palm outward, and the condensed energy in his palm turned into countless thin lines and entered the bodies of the wounded.

The moment the Qi entered their bodies, their moans stopped, and the painful expressions on their faces gradually faded away.

One of the captains touched his chest and said in surprise: "Zong... Zong Guoshi, are you healing our wounds?"

"Zong Guo Master, you don’t have to be like this. It takes a lot of energy for you to heal so many of us.”

“Shut up, don’t talk!” Zong Yi said coldly with a cold look on his face.

“Master Zong is so kind to us, I can’t repay them in this life!”

Zong Yi ignored them and continued to inject Qi into them. Help them heal.

After about a stick of incense, Zong Yi was already sweating profusely. In any case, treating hundreds of wounded people at the same time not only consumes his energy, but also consumes his physical strength.

But Zong Yi doesn’t care, because to him, these people are his fighting strength, and it would be a waste if they just die like this.

Soon, the scars on those people dissipated and their internal injuries were almost healed.

The Eighteenth Colonel stood up slowly and came to Zong Yi uniformly.

　Shuashuashua——

They all knelt down on one knee in front of Zong Yi.

"Zong Guoshi's kindness will never be forgotten. The Eighteen Colonels will swear allegiance to the Lord of the Land and Zong Guoshi in this life!"

Zong Yi glanced at it Pu Xiu, who was sitting on the throne with his eyes blank and like a puppet, had a sneer on his lips.

　"Just be loyal to me, forget about being the Lord of the Land!"
