Do not die

Facing Lu Quan's sincere request for advice, Meng Zhou shook his head and said:

"I didn't even leave the courtyard. I didn't even know about this before you came here. How could I know who the real murderer was?"

Lu Quan listened carefully and nodded thoughtfully.

"However, this does not prevent us from making some speculations without relying on evidence behind closed doors, speculating on the motive for committing the crime, and making some vague judgments about his identity based on this."

Kan Yue nodded slightly when he heard the words.

Lu Quan was confused and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you don't even know who the real murderer is, how can you judge his motive?

Vendetta? Money kills? Love killing?

Or maybe the real murderer suddenly developed some special secret skill and needed someone to try it out, so he chose the unlucky head of the Fan family.

We don’t know anything, so how can you judge the motive for committing the crime? "

Hearing this, Kan Yue nodded again, thinking that this made sense.

Meng Zhou smiled slightly and explained while adding tea to the two of them:

“We are not government detectives, we are not solving cases, and we don’t need evidence.

Of course, the situations you mentioned are all possible, and I cannot completely rule them out, but there is no need to rule them out, because there is no need.

The impact of this incident has now truly spread, and may even affect everyone in Mikawahara, so let's assume that this is the murderer's motive.

Even going one step further, we will have a full-scale confrontation with Dai Shouli and other local die-hard forces, and reduce the Sanchuan Plain to rubble..."

Lu Quan seemed to have something to say again, but Meng Zhou got stuck in advance and said:

“I really don’t have evidence, but since we are chatting privately, of course we try to estimate as much as possible.

Just in case, right? If we really encounter such an unexpected situation, it's not a bad thing if we can be mentally prepared in advance, right? "

Lu Quan didn't seem to fully agree with his perfunctory statement and muttered:

"Guessing too much? Then we might as well bring in the entire Qingxuan Territory."

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "It's not a bad idea."

Just when Lu Quan's expression changed and he was about to say something, Meng Zhou shook his head again and said:

"But, I'm sorry, my situation is so big that I can't even understand what happened in Mikawahara.

If the entire Qingxuan Territory is included, it will be meaningless and meaningless.

Moreover, I don't think the life and death of the Fan family leader can have such a big impact. "

Meng Zhou was talking nonsense with Lu Quan, but in his heart he was thinking over and over what his gaffe just now might reveal.

Next to him, Kan Yue reluctantly accepted Meng Zhou’s explanation and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you mean that the real murderer of the Fan family's assassination was probably to provoke internal conflicts in Sanchuan Plain and disrupt the order of Sanchuan Plain?"

Meng Zhou nodded.

"But there must be a purpose for doing this, right? What is this purpose?" Kan Yue asked.

Meng Zhou shook his head and said: "I'm not a murderer, how do I know, but we can continue..."

As he spoke, Meng Zhou looked at Lu Quan with a gesture in his eyes, as if to say, it's your turn next.

Lu Quan said helplessly: "Guess further?"

"Yes, yes."

Meng Zhou laughed and clapped his hands.

After all his "mischief", the depressing and solemn atmosphere brought by Kan Yue and Lu Quan was swept away.

Kan Yue couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Isn't this just a game? Apart from entertaining myself, what's the point of doing this?"

Meng Zhou picked up the teacup, slowly rotated his thumb, index finger, and middle finger on the rim of the cup, and said softly: "Then what do we do now that is meaningful?"

"Of course..."

Kan Yue wanted to say that he would form an offensive and defensive alliance, actively prepare for war, pay close attention to the movements of Dai Shouli and others, and at the same time get in touch with more foundation-building monks.

But before the words were spoken, he suddenly realized that the three of them were sitting here, and there was no need to explain clearly that this offensive and defensive alliance had already been established in fact.

As for continuing to contact more foundation-building monks, this is simple to say, but it is not simple at all to do it.

Anyone with a little bit of social experience will know that there will be countless bad things to face, both internal and external.

Such a move will stimulate Dai Shouli and others to take a step further, and with the joint "efforts" of both parties, the situation will be pushed step by step to the point where it is completely out of control.

This is also the reason why Sanchuanhui jumped out to call for a fire reduction at this time.

Thinking of this, Kan Yue's interest in the "business" suddenly disappeared. He felt that sitting down and chatting with a wonderful person like Taoist Zhuang was much more interesting than doing these "business".

So, midway through his words, he suddenly changed his words and said, "Well, fellow Taoist Zhuang, guess what the other party's purpose is?"

Meng Zhou also had a lot of imagination and asked, "Is it possible that the real culprit behind the scenes just wants people to die here, and the more people die, the better?"

"What's the purpose?" Kan Yue asked.

"Well, collecting the flesh, blood or souls of dead people or something?" Meng Zhouzhou thought as he guessed.

Lu Quan's eyelids jumped and the corners of his mouth twitched when he heard this. Kan Yue also said with a look of disgust: "What kind of demonic behavior is this?"

Only then did Meng Zhou remember that the world of cultivation he had personally come into contact with was very different from the impression he had in his previous life.

For example, the concept of the soul. Before successfully building the foundation and opening up the sea of ​​consciousness, no matter whether it is a mortal or a Qi-training monk, the soul is mixed with flesh and blood, and there is no separate soul.

Human flesh and blood does not seem to have any special value. Compared with the flesh of monster beasts of the same grade, the latter is undoubtedly more attractive.

Therefore, many subconscious demonic behaviors are actually untenable.

Kan Yue did not completely reject it, but said while thinking: "However, a corpse theft incident with great impact did occur in our Jinding Territory."

"Stealing corpses? Why?" Both Meng Zhou and Lu Quan had the fire of gossip in their eyes, with a strong desire for knowledge.

“After investigation, it turned out that the group of corpse thieves were not monks from the Jinding Territory, but from the Spirit Controlling Territory.

They just took a fancy to the special physique of our monk who cultivates both law and body. It is said that Yulingyu has mastered a method of refining corpse puppets.

According to this set of standards, the corpse of both legal and physical practitioners is the best material for refining corpse puppets, so they regard our Jinding Territory as a resource. "

"There is such a thing!"

Meng Zhou sighed, Lu Quan also looked knowledgeable.

Kan Yue said: "This matter was already fifty or sixty years ago, and it was quite a big deal at that time.

Those body thieves, whether they were beaten to death or captured alive but tortured horribly, were all taken away by the Jinding Sect. It is said that they negotiated with the Yuling Sect in person to resolve the matter. "

“The specific outcome of the negotiations between the Jinding Sect and the Yuling Sect is unknown, but since then, no such incident has occurred in the Jinding Domain.

However, the impact of this incident on the Jinding Domain is still there. Many monks choose to be cremated when they die, and this is one of them. "

Meng Zhou suddenly nodded and said:

"So, Fellow Daoist Kan thinks that this is probably done by the monks from the Soul Controlling Realm? The purpose is to obtain a large amount of materials for refining corpse puppets?... Oh, at our last gathering, there was a Taoist from the Soul Controlling Realm. Friends?"

Kan Yue looked at "Fellow Taoist Zhuang" with a determined look on his face and said speechlessly:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, when did I say that? I was just following your train of thought to make amends for you!

Also, let’s just talk about this statement here. If you really say it as a reason, people will laugh to death. "

The monks from the Spirit Controlling Realm crossed over to the Qingxuan Realm and lived a peaceful life. They made such a big noise just to obtain a few materials for refining corpse puppets. There is no such thing as burying people!

For a monk who was picked up by Qingxuan Sect from the outside world at this time and decided to stay, you can doubt his good and evil thoughts, but you cannot doubt his IQ, let alone regard him as a fool.

Meng Zhou also smiled and waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, this is just a joke. Fellow Taoist Kan, don't take it seriously... However, since you mentioned this, I remembered another thing."

"What's the matter?" Kan Yue asked.

Meng Zhou said:

“At the last gathering, I wasn’t very impressed with anyone else, but a female cultivator named Wei Xiao left a very deep impression on me.

The way she looks at people makes people very uncomfortable. Do you know what is going on with her? "

Kan Yue smiled and said: "You are talking about her. I may not understand other people, but I really know her situation."

"What's going on with her?" Meng Zhou asked.

"Fellow Daoist Wei is from the Hehuan Territory, you can probably guess that, right?" Kan Yue said.

Meng Zhou thought for a while and nodded slowly.

“The Hehuan Realm regards the dual cultivation of men and women as a matter of course, and all monks, regardless of men and women, know several secret techniques of Hehuan.

Most of these secret techniques are gentle and beneficial to both practitioners.

This is called the Hehuan Sect in the Hehuan Domain, and it is considered the mainstream orthodoxy. In addition, there is an evil path called the Tonic Sect, which is only beneficial to the caster, and the other party is completely reduced to a furnace.

That Fellow Daoist Wei was originally raised by a certain second-generation ancestor of the Hehuan Sect who was said to have a great background. However, I don’t know what tricks Fellow Daoist Wei used. During a critical harvest, she harvested the other party instead and directly harvested the person. died. "

Having said this, Kan Yue couldn't help but laughed twice and said:

"Don't mind if she looks at people a little strangely. She may think of you as a good source of supplements."

Meng Zhou shuddered in his heart when he thought of Wei Xiao's strange look at him.

He thought of his powerful physique, Spring Water Scripture, and various spiritual talents... Maybe, probably, in the eyes of the other party, I am just a piece of Tang Monk flesh, right?

Maybe the other party can't see his true identity at a glance, but as a "meat eater", his intuition can tell which ones are delicious and which ones are not.

Seeing his expression as if he had swallowed a live fly, Kan Yue laughed and consoled him:

"Don't take it personally. As long as you don't take the initiative to bring food to your door, she can't really do anything to you.

I dare not say anything else. She really dares to act recklessly. If you punch her, I don’t believe she can stop her! "

Meng Zhouyi thought, well, indeed, with his current punching power, this shouldn't be any harder than breaking a tomato.

But he looked at Kan Yue suspiciously and asked curiously: "How do you know so clearly? Did she tell you personally?"

Kan Yue was surprised and said: "How is that possible!"

"Actually, on the spaceship coming to Qingxuan Domain, I happened to live in two adjacent cabins with a male cultivator from Hehuan Domain. I heard about this from his mouth.

Because Wei Xiao's incident caused quite a stir in the Hehuan Domain, the Hehuan Sect even started a round of crackdowns against the cultivating monks.

The Hehuan Sect may have good intentions, but when it comes to implementation, it goes wrong.

Many male and female casual cultivators were labeled as evil cultivators of tonic and were then arrested.

In order to avoid such an ending, many casual cultivators have used various methods to escape to the outside world. "

Kan Yue did not say clearly what would happen to those male and female casual cultivators who were labeled as evil cultivators. After all, he had no evidence. He could only say what he knew.

But there is no need to explain clearly. Meng Zhou guessed that these people were most likely to be used as a source of supplements.

The base camp of the Caibu Sect is nowhere else but within the Hehuan Sect.

In the Hehuan Sect, good and evil are one and belong to Yes. I am the good guy and I am the bad guy. How can you tell whether I am male or female?

This actually coincides with the dual cultivation concept of Hehuan Sect.

Listening to Kan Yue's explanation, Meng Zhou was very surprised.

Is this the training environment in the outer realm?

Whether it's the Golden Cauldron Realm, the Yuling Realm, or this Acacia Realm, it doesn't give him the feeling that it's too friendly to casual cultivators?

He originally didn't think the cultivation environment in Qingxuan Territory was very good, but after comparing it with some of the information revealed in Kan Yue's few words, Meng Zhou suddenly discovered that Qingxuan Territory was actually the most normal.

More and more foundation builders from outside the realm don’t want to leave after coming to Qingxuan Territory. Meng Zhou couldn’t help but think that maybe they all have similar feelings in their hearts?

Meng Zhou looked at Lu Quan next to him, who had not spoken for a long time and was listening to the two people talking silently, and suddenly asked: "Fellow Daoist Lu, what do you think?"

"Ah?...What do you think?" Lu Quan responded blankly.

Meng Zhou said: "We have all mentioned a possibility. Regardless of whether it is reliable or not, it still has a direction. Can you give me your opinion?"

Lu Quan finally came to his senses and scratched his head in embarrassment, as if he thought this discussion was a bit too childish.

But he saw the other two fellow Taoists staring at him without blinking, as if they were saying:

"We've all said it, now it's your turn. Want to run away? No way!"

If he doesn't say something at this time, he will appear very unsociable.

But he couldn't tell the real reason, but it couldn't be completely nonsense, which made him worried.

He pinched his eyebrows and thought about it seriously, then suddenly an idea came to him and he said:

"The reason mentioned by fellow Taoist Zhuang just now gave me an inspiration."

"Ah? Tell me quickly!" Meng Zhou sat up straight, showing strong interest.

"The real culprit behind the scenes has contributed to this situation. It is unlikely that he will collect flesh and blood corpses and souls, but it is very likely to collect something else!" Lu Quan said.

"Collecting other things? What to collect?" Kan Yue also became interested.

Lu Quan looked at the two of them and suddenly asked, "Have you ever heard of the Lihen Cult?"

"Lihen Sect?" Kan Yue repeated softly and shook his head.

When Meng Zhou heard this name, his heart moved. Because of this name, he naturally thought of the Sutra of Lihen and those "Hu family members".

But his face was as confused as Kan Yue's, and he shook his head gently with him.

Lu Quan smiled and said: "Xingxiu Palace always knows, right?"

"Nonsense!" Kan Yue.

"Of course!" Meng Zhou.

Lu Quan nodded and said, "I don't know much about the Lihen Sect.

All I know is that this is a demonic sect that once had strong Nascent Soul level warriors, and that it once had an arm-wrestling relationship with Xingxiu Palace.

However, about two hundred years ago, this demonic organization suddenly declined, and it is said that its core layer was destroyed by the Xingxiu Palace.

And because its inheritance was too evil, Xingxiu Palace used some special methods to make people almost forget the existence of this organization. "

Kan Yue asked curiously: "What's so special about the Lihen Sect? It actually requires Xingxiu Palace to spend so much effort?"

Lu Quandao: "I heard that the cultivation method of the Lihen Sect is completely different from the normal cultivation method. For them, there is only one most important cultivation resource, and that is 'hatred', the 'hate' among the seven emotions and six desires!"

Kan Yue said in surprise: "Hate? Can this also be a resource for cultivation? Could it be that the more I hate you, or conversely, the more you hate me, the faster your cultivation will be?"

Faced with his question, Lu Quan spread his hands and said, "Then I don't know. How to use it specifically, you have to ask the people from the Lihen Cult."

Kan Yue grinned, waved his hand and said, "Judging from the name, this is not someone to be trifled with. Forget it."

Meng Zhou's eyes widened and he said in shock:

“Fellow Daoist Lu, are you saying that the mastermind behind this incident is the Lihen Cult?

Their purpose is to inspire hatred between the two camps, so that they can collect this kind of hatred resources nearby? "

After hearing this, Lu Quan quickly waved his hands and said: "When did I say this, for reference, I am just like you, just providing a reference."

Meng Zhou nodded in deep agreement and said, "I think what you said is very reasonable!"

Lu Quan seemed to want to get rid of this topic quickly, saying: "Okay, okay, I will provide you with an idea, and you can continue."

Meng Zhou nodded. Except for the moment of surprise, he didn't pay any special attention to this topic.

He looked at Kan Yue and said, "Fellow Daoist Kan, are you familiar with the situation in each domain?"

Kan Yue said: "This is not familiar, but it is just general talk. For monks from all fields, these are basic common sense.

If you can be like me and make more friends from all walks of life, you will become like me in a short time. "

Meng Zhou smiled and said, "I don't think it's necessary. As long as I make friends with you, doesn't it mean that what you know is equivalent to what I know?"

Kan Yue pointed at Meng Zhou and laughed.

He could also see that "Fellow Daoist Zhuang"'s interest had shifted from "speculating" on the real murderer to understanding the situation in various domains. This was obviously an interest aroused by his words just now.

This conversation had already taken countless turns from the time he and Lu Quan came to the door solemnly to now. Therefore, he didn't care what they were talking about just now and asked directly: "What else do you want to know?"

Meng Zhou said: "I just heard you say that the monks from the Soul Controlling Domain came to the Golden Cauldron Domain to steal corpses. I was actually quite interested. Is it convenient for you to travel between the two domains?"

Kan Yue nodded and said:

"Well, it can't be said to be convenient. For a single foundation-building monk to travel, he will risk a narrow escape.

——However, the communication between Qingxuan Domain and several other domains is indeed more convenient. "

Meng Zhou nodded and asked, "Do all the monks in the Spirit Controlling Realm carry a puppet army or a beast control army with them?"

Kan Yue shook his head and laughed:

"What good thing are you thinking about? There are not many people in the Yuling Sect who can have this kind of wealth.

As far as I know, most of the monks in the Soul Controlling Realm are paupers! "

"Ah, how could it be?" Meng Zhou asked in surprise.

"Think about it, in addition to their own cultivation, they also have to take care of the growth of beast control.

If you don't play with beasts and play with puppets, it's still a bottomless pit.

A resource that they can't wait to break into three-petaled flowers, can they not be poor?

If they were not forced to do so, who would risk their lives and commit suicide by stealing corpses across borders? "Kan Yue said.

Meng Zhou nodded, thought for a while, and then said:

"Fellow Daoist Kan, actually I have a question in my mind. Taking the monks in the Spirit Controlling Domain as an example, are all the monks there beast control masters, puppet masters, or even spirit control masters?"

Kan Yue asked with a smile: "Are you still curious whether all the monks in the Jinding Domain practice both body and law?"

Meng Zhou nodded.

"Of course not." Kan Yue's answer was simple and clear.

Kan Yue said with a smile: "We also have alchemists and weapon refiners in the Golden Cauldron Domain, and there are also Talisman Makers and Formation Masters in the Yuling Domain. The innate talents of practitioners are various and will not be affected by regional factors. It just makes it easier for monks with certain talents to get ahead."

"Uh... you don't seem to understand what I mean." Meng Zhou said.

Kan Yue suddenly stopped laughing and said, "I understand what you mean. You actually want to ask about those ordinary practitioners who are more numerous but don't have any professional talents, right?"

Meng Zhou nodded.

"Of course there will be."

Kan Yue's words made Meng Zhou feel a little better, but only a little. The next moment, Kan Yue's words made him silent and speechless.

"It's just that it's hard for them to get a chance to stand out... Well, they are lucky to be able to grow to the late stage of Qi training.

Most of them are just servants in the early and middle stages of Qi training.

From this perspective, Qingxuan Domain has the most relaxed atmosphere for ordinary monks, and they have the most opportunities. "

Meng Zhou was silent for a while and then said: "So, the number of high-level monks in other domains is not as large as that in Qingxuan Domain?"

Kan Yue nodded, shook his head again, and said:

“That should be the case, but before last year, this gap would not have been so obvious.

If you think about it carefully, you should understand that among those monks who were able to break through to foundation building, how many of them had extremely poor talents and got there purely through perseverance?

This is true for foundation building, let alone a strong person who can go all the way through foundation building and advance to the realm of pill formation. Who is not a one-in-a-thousand genius?

Although the Qi-training monks in the Qingxuan Domain are far superior to those in other domains, the numerical gap is not so obvious at the foundation-building level, and this is even more so when it comes to the Dan-forming realm. "

Meng Zhou said softly: "You said it was before last year."

Kan Yue nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, before last year."

As a person who has experienced it, Meng Zhou has gone from being novel at the beginning to looking at it indifferently towards the foundation building vision. Meng Zhou believes that everyone in Qinglinfang is like this.

If you are just shocked every time a foundation-building vision is born, then don’t live.

Similarly, Meng Zhou had personally witnessed more than three or five cases of the alchemy phenomenon.

Although everyone laments how good the current foundation-building monks are.

But I can’t stand the large number.

Moreover, even if there is a ruthless character among ten parallel imports who is soft yet hard, that is extremely exaggerated.

All three fell into a brief silence.

Ever since the two discussed this topic, Lu Quan seemed very quiet.

He did not have any dissatisfaction because the conversation between the two had actually deviated from their original intention of coming here by a million miles. Instead, he listened very seriously.

Meng Zhou suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly remembered, and said: "Where is the Alchemy Domain? Do you know about the situation in the Alchemy Domain?"

Lu Quan, who seemed to be distracted, seemed to be awakened by Meng Zhou's sudden words. He also raised his head and looked at Kan Yue with interest.

Kan Yue said: “Each domain has its own characteristics.

But as far as my feeling is concerned, the Alchemy Domain and the Qingxuan Domain are the closest.

Apart from the Qingxuan Domain, the environment in the Alchemy Domain should be the best for ordinary practitioners. "

Meng Zhou looked like he was listening attentively, and Lu Quan also smiled softly, seeming very interested.

Kan Yue looked at Meng Zhou and Lu Quan and said:

"If you go to other realms, whether it is the Golden Cauldron Realm, the Hehuan Realm or the Yuling Realm, you will be able to see something strange immediately, and you will feel the obvious differences between each other.

But if you go to the Alchemy Domain, you basically don’t need to worry like this.

Anyway, I can't see any difference between you. "

After that, the three of them chatted a lot about the similarities and differences between the different domains. However, most of them were Meng Zhou asking, Kan Yue talking, and occasionally Lu Quan would interrupt. The whole conversation was smooth and natural.

When the sky darkened, Meng Zhou had refilled the spiritual tea he had brewed countless times before the three of them stopped enjoying themselves.

Finally, the sunset slanted into the courtyard, and none of the three people spoke. Instead, they lowered their heads and drank the last cup of spiritual tea that was still warm.

The next moment, both Kan Yue and Lu Quan had stood up.

Kan Yue cupped his hands to Meng Zhou and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, although I have been talking nonsense to you all day, I feel that this trip is worthwhile.

Kan has not experienced this feeling for who knows how many years.

That’s it for today, we’ll talk about other things later when we find time. "

Lu Quan also smiled and silently handed over to Meng Zhou. Obviously, he and Kan Yue had the same feeling.

It's just that the person named Kan has already finished what he said, so he doesn't need to repeat it again. He can just hand it over.

Meng Zhou stood up with a smile and watched the two of them fly away.

After the two of them went away, Meng Zhou closed the formation and sat down again.

Then he started brewing a pot of spiritual tea for himself.

His hands moved habitually, but his thoughts had already sunk into the sea of ​​consciousness.

In the moon mirror, the "video" of the two people from their visit began to be replayed, and the "camera" almost hit Lu Quan's face.

All his expressions are close-ups, including body movements and even changes in Qi, all clearly revealed under the moon mirror.

According to Meng Zhou's thoughts, the "video" sometimes goes extremely fast, sometimes extremely slow, and sometimes stops, completely according to his wishes.

Every subtle movement and micro-expression change of Lu Quan will be carefully studied by him.

…

Except when practicing in seclusion, Meng Zhou now keeps the moon mirror open at all times.

Therefore, Yue Jing clearly recorded the entire process from the time the two entered the courtyard to the conversation between the three.

Passing geese leave behind photos, and passing people leave traces.

All the information faithfully recorded by the Moon Mirror, even the minutiae that Meng Zhou never paid attention to, will be deposited in the depths of the soul pool.

This is just like those ordinary daily memories that are dusty in the heart, and there is a high probability that they will never have a chance to be recalled again.

But as long as he wants to, Meng Zhou can call it at any time.

For any Foundation-Building monk who has opened up the sea of ​​consciousness and has a complete soul, this is an innate ability that can be mastered without learning. Although a Foundation-Building monk cannot completely control his every thought, he can Clearly know the specific direction of each thought.

In fact, Meng Zhou basically already had the answer in his mind without checking the moon mirror records.

Although Lu Quan concealed himself very well, some changes in micro-expressions and the occasional beat of Qi had already betrayed a lot of information.

Not to mention that Lu Quan is not a professional actor, but a movie king. Under the relaxed and casual atmosphere he deliberately created, how could he achieve the look and expression of every minute, every second, and even every moment? Do you have a good mentality and a good score?

The changes in Lu Quan were so slight that Kan Yue, who was closer to him, didn't even notice them at all.

But Meng Zhou was different. Firstly, he had already guessed in his mind, and secondly, he had a powerful soul-sensing talent. Whether it was the Moon Mirror or the Heart of Nature, they were all sensing talents.

Furthermore, this is his home court, and the three of them are always under the full coverage of a quasi-third-level formation.

Therefore, before looking through the Moon Mirror records, Meng Zhou already had 70% to 80% guesses in his mind.

After studying every slight change of Lu Quan recorded in the moon mirror frame by frame, the 70-80% guess turned into a 100% certainty.

Lu Quan is a monk from the Alchemy Domain.

When Kan Yue casually said, "I can't see the difference between you two and the monks in the alchemy realm," Lu Quan's energy changed slightly for a moment.

Such coordinated changes are like dancing to the rhythm of music.

For Meng Zhou, this was equivalent to having the answer written on his face.

…

Today, in the conversation led by Meng Zhou, what appeared in front of Kan Yue and Lu Quan was rambling, and his strong curiosity about all kinds of strange things.

But in fact, every topic guidance is full of "ingenuity".

While talking to the two of them, his mind kept running and he was fine-tuning the direction of the topic based on Lu Quan's reaction.

The most critical thing is that Lu Quan himself cannot be alerted.

Not at all.

This is a special hunt. The most amazing thing is that until the end of the hunt, the prey itself is ignorant.

Little did he know that he had been accurately captured.

But even though he had captured his "prey", Meng Zhou was not happy. Instead, he felt like he had caught a hot potato.

This "prey", or rather, the existence behind this prey, is really too hot to handle.

…

After confirming the basic fact that Lu Quan came from the Alchemy Domain, Meng Zhou unexpectedly double-checked this information from another path completely unrelated to today's meeting.

and verified its accuracy again.

Meng Zhou remembered that as "Meng Zhuang", he had already demonstrated some alchemy attainments. In order to reasonably obtain a large number of second-level useless elixirs and waste weapons, and to win the trust of Hexin poster, Meng Zhou once said that he wanted to become an alchemy master. Weapon master.

At that time, the host He Xin also made a few random comments, to the effect that this was a very good direction. He also used facts as an example, saying that the Alchemy Sect had developed a method of "condensing elixirs with weapons" to form natal magic weapons.

Meng Zhou's attainments in Dan Dao and Qi Dao were far superior to those of He Xin Louzhu. Her casual chat contained an extremely rich amount of information for Meng Zhou.

He can easily draw the following inferences from this:

This must be a large-scale project that can be successfully tackled only by the combined efforts of the Alchemy Sect. This large-scale project is by no means the sudden inspiration of some genius.

Because it involves too much complex infrastructure.

Secondly, before this success, the Alchemy Sect must have made too many attempts, including success, failure, half success and half failure.

Secondly, what Master Hexin told him was that the Dan Weapon Sect used this method to form the life magic weapon when forming the elixir. Meng Zhou deduced based on his attainments in the second path of alchemy that this could never be the case when the foundation was established and the elixir was formed. It was prepared in a hurry.

During the foundation building stage, you need to go through a long period of running-in and adaptation, and only then can you complete the final leap at the moment of forming the core.

This is just like perfecting the talent of a skill. If you don't practice the skill to perfection in advance, don't expect it.

Therefore, before the third-level natal magic weapon, there is actually a second-level natal magic weapon stage.

At this point, another doubt in Meng Zhou's mind was revealed.

Then, through the comparison of the moon mirror's observation ability ten days ago, Meng Zhou judged that the opponent used third-level quality stealth equipment.

Now, Meng Zhou already knew how the other party achieved it.

The natal magic weapon + the corresponding talent + the spell that matches it, after many additions, achieved this effect.

In fact, this situation has already happened to Meng Zhou. The three innate skills + corresponding talents + the late stage of second-level body refining finally allowed him to reach a quasi-third-level combat power output in the middle stage of foundation building.

This situation can happen to him, and naturally it can also happen to others.

In this respect, he is no more special than anyone else.

Meng Zhou even infers Lu Quan's true strength because of this, and the guarantee is in the late stage of foundation building, or even the peak of foundation building.

And this is where Meng Zhou finds it tricky.

What makes him troublesome is not Lu Quan, but the Alchemy Sect behind Lu Quan.

What is certain is that under the current circumstances, being qualified to deeply participate in front-line research on major projects of the Alchemy Sect is definitely not a treatment that ordinary monks can have.

Under the framework of Qingxuan Sect, this is at least the core of the inner sect, and it may even be a true disciple trying the law.

So, why did Lu Quan, with such an extraordinary status, leave the Alchemy Domain and quietly come to the Qingxuan Domain to cause trouble in a remote place like Sanchuan Plateau?

Meng Zhou ruled out personal factors at the first opportunity. He was sure that this must be the behavior of the sect, and it could never be Lu Quan's "incomprehension".

So why did the Alchemy Sect do this?

Working backwards from the results, Meng Zhou found that the reason was not difficult to guess at all, and was even clear at a glance.

Look at the big commotion Qingxuan Sect has made in the Qingxuan Domain since the beginning of last year, and even sent spaceships to "poach" various domains.

How blind do the leaders of other domains have to be that they still know nothing about this situation?

Now that people know it, what should they do?

Of course it's a stumbling block!

The most obvious target is of course Qingxuanzong's main mountain, followed by Jade Lake Fairy City.

But doing so is tantamount to directly declaring war with Qingxuan Sect. Obviously, neither the Alchemy Sect nor any other sect has such an idea.

Therefore, the Alchemy Sect chose Sanchuan Yuan, which is relatively "barren" now but has great potential in the future.

Anyway, it’s just to stir up trouble.

Development is not easy, and destroying it is not the innate magical power of every practitioner?

Moreover, all the third-level powers in Qingxuan Territory are either in Qingxuan Sect or are attracted to the Jade Lake Fairy City. Guys like Lu Quan with third-level stealth abilities are not walking sideways in other places in Qingxuan Territory.

Moreover, this guy himself can be said to be very careful.

If he hadn't hit the muzzle of his gun impartially, he would have successfully completed the mission.

But after discovering this situation, Meng Zhou found himself faced with a dilemma.

Looking for an opportunity to kill Lu Quan?

He was out of his mind to do such a thing!

With such a sense of justice, is it to avenge the injustice of the head of the Fan family who was assassinated? !

Not to mention how many life-saving treasures this guy will prepare in this environment, it is not something he can kill if he wants to in the middle stage of foundation building.

Even if Lu Quan is really killed, what good will it do to him, Meng Zhou?

What's more important is that behind him stands the Alchemy Sect, which is as huge as the Qingxuan Sect. This is an existence that he cannot afford to offend now.

He even had to do everything possible to avoid being looked directly at by him. It was too dangerous for him!

Moreover, he was not crazy, so why did he provoke the Alchemy Sect for no reason?

But do you just ignore it and let this guy do things behind his back? In the end, it really caused a melee between one or two hundred foundation-building monks in Sanchuan Plain?

Meng Zhou believed that if he let him sit back and watch, even if the rationalists headed by Chairman Pan would try to calm down the fire, there would be such a strong man who wanted to cause trouble lurking in the dark, and there would also be Dai Shouli who had a strong desire to cause trouble. The die-hard localists "cooperate".

This fire can definitely be ignited by Lu Quan!

At that point, his best option is to get out before the chaos breaks out completely.

Or you can choose to get out now.

Not to mention whether he is willing or not, whether he can give up this hard-earned foundation.

After getting out of here, where can he go?

The outer realm is not considered, and the Jade Lake Fairy City, where you can encounter fake elixirs or even elixir formation at any time, is not allowed to go, so there are only other second-level spiritual veins to choose from.

But even Mikawahara is experiencing this kind of thing, will other second-level spiritual veins be better?

Meng Zhou would not be so naive as to think so.

Therefore, it is not possible to kill Lu Quan, it is even better not to let him feel the imminent danger, but also to ensure the peace and stability of the Sanchuan Plain cultivation environment.

How to solve this situation?

Meng Zhou dipped his fingers in tea and wrote on the table the name of a person he knew who could have an impact on the situation in Sanchuan Plain.

Finally, he, Meng Zhou, circled the name of President Pan twice.

He whispered softly: "We should be the staunchest allies in this matter."

He didn't want chaos in the Sanchuan Plain, and President Pan, who had put his whole life on the Sanchuan Conference, did the same.

Once the Sanchuan Plain is in chaos, the Sanchuan Society will become worthless.

President Pan absolutely cannot accept this result.

However, even though this was confirmed, it was impossible for Meng Zhou to show up to talk to Chairman Pan about the matter.

He cannot show up.

He couldn't even get President Pan to notice him.

"However, I can throw this difficult question of Lu Quan to him."

"Although the reasons are different, if he knew Lu Quan's identity, he would also be in a dilemma like me."

On the one hand, President Pan will not tolerate Lu Quan messing up Sanchuan Yuan.

But on the other hand, he also didn't dare to kill Lu Quan, even if he had the ability!

That would only bring greater disaster to Sanchuanyuan.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou suddenly smiled.

Having another person to share your troubles seems to reduce them by half.

As his mood relaxed, Meng Zhou suddenly felt blessed.

Write a new name on the desk and circle it several times with your finger.

"How could I forget you!

You are the key to breaking the game sent by God! Meng Zhou said happily with a smile on his lips.

After thoroughly clarifying the matter, Meng Zhou suddenly felt enlightened.

Meng Zhou reached out and wiped away all traces on the table.

But the name of the last person he wrote down was immediately erased by him.

This person's name is Hu Gui.

…

night.

Meng Zhou restrained all his aura, then his body sank into the earth, and quietly left the area of ​​Zhuang Tianzhuang.

It didn't take long for him to sneak into a town more than fifty miles away, which is also the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society.

Meng Zhou found a remote corner and emerged from the ground, already transforming into a completely unfamiliar image.

He walked around the town and after having a plan in mind, he appeared on a street next to the Sanchuanhui headquarters.

A small mana ball, smaller than a mung bean, appeared at Meng Zhou's fingertips.

The mana fluctuation should be unique and correspond to each monk, but Meng Zhou's innate ability allows him to easily adjust it. Therefore, it is impossible to trace the source through this flying consciousness technique.

Moreover, having perfected the Flying Sense Technique allows him to control it more carefully. For example, if someone who is not the target intercepts it, the information in it will immediately self-destruct.

For another example, while transmitting the information accurately, the small magic power group supporting the Flying Sense Technique will be completely annihilated at the right time, exactly, and wonderfully.

Meng Zhou stretched out his finger and flicked, and the Flying Sense Technique instantly broke through the air and headed straight for the Sanchuanhui headquarters.

As expected, President Pan is currently at the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society and has not gone anywhere.

The reason why he came here to send a message was because the Flying Sense Technique moves in a straight line and does not go in circles. In addition, the mana loss will be different depending on the flying distance.

If you are good at this, you can see a lot of information through these clues and determine the approximate direction and distance of the sender.

Instead of choosing another direction to mislead the other party, Meng Zhou felt that it would be more appropriate to come here to blur the other party's judgment as much as possible.

As for President Pan’s information badge, there is no big problem. As President Sanchuan, President Pan’s information badge is almost equivalent to a “public account.”

Any foundation-building monk who comes to Sanchuan Plain will get such information as long as he stays for a while.

Therefore, this cannot be a clue to the other party.

That'll do.

Meng Zhou did not do more.

After sending out the Flying Sense Technique and confirming that it had entered the Sanchuanhui headquarters, Meng Zhou flashed and quickly disappeared from the spot.

And not long after he left, a figure that almost turned into light rushed out from the Sanchuanhui headquarters. The target was exactly where Meng Zhou stood and fired the flying sense technique.

President Pan almost took one step and landed where Meng Zhou was standing just now. He looked around and saw no one.

After careful sensing, there is not even a trace of mana fluctuations.

But he still looked around unwillingly. At this moment, foundation-building monks rushed out from the headquarters of the Sanchuan Society one after another, came to President Pan, and asked with concern:

"President?"

President Pan waved his hand and said, "It's okay!"

After that, he didn't stop here anymore and strode towards the headquarters.

Under his seemingly calm and normal appearance, there were actually fists tightly clenched in his sleeves.

A man returned to the house, and his heartbeat, which he had suppressed, began to beat wildly.

He paced back and forth in the room, murmuring softly: "Who are you? Who are you?... You don't want to see chaos in Sanchuanyuan, do you?"

Finally, as President Pan whispered "Thank you! Thank you!" twice in a row, the room fell silent again.

This time, the atmosphere seemed to be the same as before receiving the Flying Sense Technique.

But anxiety and being at a loss as to what to do have turned into wisdom and calm arrangements.

Speaking of which, the information in the Flying Sense Technique is also very simple.

There are only two in total.

The first is to directly tell him who the murderer is, but without naming him specifically, just saying that he is a core member of the Alchemy Sect.

With just this short sentence, President Pan knew immediately with his sensitivity to the general situation that Sanchuanyuan was unfortunately involved in the whirlpool of the struggle between the Alchemy Sect and the Qingxuan Sect.

If it is not handled properly, it will be shattered into pieces.

Therefore, after learning that the real culprit was such a completely unexpected answer, President Pan almost collapsed.

Soon, however, a second message came to his rescue.

This time, it was much more accurate.

A portrait of a character, and behind it, there is a huge phantom of three strange gods.

As if he was afraid that he would not understand the power of it, he directly drew a frame, pointed at the facial features of the portrait, and wrote, "Hu Gui, the core backbone of the Lihen Sect, lurked in Sanchuan Plain, hoping to run a long-term stronghold."

President Pan, who felt a little collapsed a moment ago, felt that he had been rescued.

Of course he knew who this person was, and he clearly remembered every face that came to Michuan Plain to establish the foundation.

"Savior, you are the savior of our Mikawa Plains!"

After seeing this second message, President Pan instantly understood why the other party also sent the first message to him.

This is to allow him to handle the matter properly. Otherwise, even if the matter is temporarily resolved, as long as the Alchemy Sect lurking in the dark refuses to give up and continues to cause trouble, today's situation will happen again soon. .

This is no longer a difficult task for President Pan, who has already read the second message.

He had already quickly hatched a plan in his mind that could perfectly resolve this matter.

Not only can this murder be brought to a perfect end, but it can also make the Alchemy Sect lurking in the dark afraid to continue causing trouble.

…

Early the next morning, President Packer walked out of his room under the worried eyes of a group of congregants.

They were shocked to find that President Pan, who was expected to be in a bad mood, was now radiant.

He shouted to everyone: "What are you still doing? Have a meeting, have a meeting!"

If you find that the last two paragraphs are repeated, refresh them.

...Well, I couldn’t change the title. In fact, I originally thought it should be “Hunting, Breaking the Game”.

Asking for a monthly ticket! !
