Chapter 558 Rescue (1)
On the first day, Tao Zi led Wu Yue, Xing Zhan and others to successfully connect with Yi Nian Sect. The leading monks of Yi Nian Sect were Qian Xuanhua and Elder Focong.
On the second day, the group arrived at the edge of Chengyue Town - Chengyue Town was one of the towns where the incident occurred, and successfully met up with Shaohua, Xuanhuan and others.
It was evening when they met up. Instead of rushing in, they took a rest outside and made further plans.
During the discussion, Qian Xuanhua glanced at Tao Zi inconspicuously, then looked at Cheng Wuchou and said, "I have a pair of tracking pointers here. Even when the spiritual energy is thin, they can point to the location of the other pointer, but the triggering conditions are quite special."
Tao Zi asked, "What are the conditions?"
"We are related by blood."
Cheng Wuchou frowned openly, "Fellow Daoist Qian, are you saying that Ah Zi and I should act separately?"
Qian Xuanhua nodded and said, "This is the safest option. After all, no one knows what's going on inside. If it really is like a desolate place, losing contact is normal."
Cheng Wuchou shook his head and said, "With spiritual stones, we can temporarily create a spiritual environment."
"Under the influence of alien races, even in the presence of spiritual energy, it is not necessarily possible to determine the location."
The two sides were deadlocked.
Li Xiu looked around and finally took a step back on the grounds of his junior status and did not participate in the discussion.
Finally, Tao Zi spoke up: "It will be more efficient if we act separately."
Cheng Wuchou looked at Tao Zi and it was obvious that he didn't agree, but he still chose to remain silent.
After all, if something really happened, he wouldn't be able to protect Tao Zi, nor would he be able to stop Tao Zi. Thirdly, he might even implicate Tao Zi.
Qian Xuanhua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, let's split up into two groups. Tao Zi will go with us, while Fellow Daoist Cheng and Senior Shaohua will go together. Is that okay?"
At this moment, Shaohua suddenly said: "There is one thing I didn't say."
Tao Zi's heart beat faster for a moment.
Shao Hua continued, "After receiving the news that Yu Niang was in trouble, I didn't have time to leave before the Gu insect representing Yu Niang died."
She stretched out her hand, and a shriveled, dead insect appeared in sight.
Medical practitioner Li Xiu and Tao Zi, who had once been with Shao Hua, both understood the meaning of these words.
Liu Yue also had a vague guess, but still couldn't believe it. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Is there any hope?"
Shao Hua calmly shook his head and said, "He will definitely die. This time I go in, I am avenging Yu Niang. After all, she is my disciple, and the person who killed her cannot live."
Before Tao Zi and others could get over the grief of Yu Niang's death, they heard this shocking news.
Liu Yue subconsciously said: "Human? The one who killed Yu Niang was a human?"
Shao Hua said, "A blurry image was sent over from Yu Niang."
As he spoke, a scene appeared in front of everyone.
The picture was shaking from side to side and was extremely blurry, and it was difficult to tell whether there was anyone there.
I could only vaguely hear footsteps coming from inside.
Suddenly, the footsteps stopped and a voice came from inside: "You can't run away."
The whole photo session ended abruptly here.
Liu Yue's face darkened and he said, "Why does this voice sound like the fifteenth elder of the Tiandao Sect?"
Elder Fozong sighed softly and said, "There's no mistake. It's definitely him."
Qian Xuanhua frowned, feeling puzzled.
Shao Hua looked at Fo Cong and the others and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Yu Niang was implicated, right?"
The Buddha remained silent until Shaohua repeated it again, then he spoke: "Everything is fate."
Shaohua couldn't help but sneer when he heard this answer.
Tao Zi suddenly asked, "Is he still in there?"
Shaohua nodded without saying the reason, but Tao Zi didn't ask either. After all, everyone has their own channels of information.
The Buddha said: "Since that's the case, why don't I..."
Shao Hua waved his hand and said, "He's going after that monk, so he'll run into you sooner or later. I'll go kill the others first, and then wait for the monk."
It was obvious that Shaohua could find other people, but not the fifteenth elder.
In the end, everything went according to the original plan, but Liu Yue changed his move and moved with Shao Hua, and the purpose became clearer - to go to Chengjiao Town.
If the news is correct, the monks from other sects have gathered in Chengjiao Town. It is said that all the living mortals are there, but the town has fallen on all sides. The monks can still barely enter and exit by themselves, but they cannot bring mortals with them.
Shaohua and others were heading to that place because the cultivators of Tiandao Sect were there.
Tao Zi and the others went to other completely occupied places to look for Hua Monk.
In the early morning of the third day, everyone set out for Chengyue Town.
Before leaving, Cheng Wuchou suddenly said to Tao Zi: "Put your own safety first."
Tao Zi remained silent and did not respond.
After entering Chengyue County, the spiritual energy suddenly became thin, but it was still much better than the wasteland.
Tao Zi and Xing Zhan had long been accustomed to such an environment and did not react much, but some Buddhist practitioners of Yi Nian Men began to feel uncomfortable.
Elder Focong and his companions brought a small spirit stone array, but the number was small and could only be used in battle. Now these Buddhist practitioners had to carry it themselves.
Tao Zi touched the jade pendant, which was slightly hot. Apparently, the seven-day period was still in effect.
“It’s so desolate.”
Qian Xuanhua suddenly sighed.
The city was deserted, with no one around. Occasionally a gust of wind would blow by and carry one or two pieces of torn clothing.
Xing Zhan said, "Chengyue Town is relatively far away, and most people should have escaped."
Tao Zi's eyes fell on a dry skeleton in the corner. Judging from the skeleton, it should be a child of five or six years old.
Elder Focong sighed lightly, left some monks behind, and asked them to search the entire town in groups of three.
Those who stayed behind were the monks who were not able to adapt well.
Elder Focong warned, "Fellow Daoists from other sects will likely arrive soon. You should act with them and don't say anything you shouldn't."
Those monks should be.
The group continued to move further inside.
Shortly after leaving Chengyue Town, Tao Zi looked at Qian Xuanhua, who was always hesitant to speak, and said helplessly, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't hesitate."
Qian Xuanhua looked at Tao Zi who had taken the initiative to speak, and breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Elder Focong before speaking, "Tao Zi, before we left, the Heavenly Venerable Zhisha once read a fortune and said that Junior Brother's chances of survival were almost gone. If he wanted to survive, there was only one way to go."
At this moment, Tao Zi understood why she had that intuition at that time.
She didn't ask any more questions, just asked: "How to do it?"
Qian Xuanhua was silent for a moment, then said, "It might expose your whereabouts and put you in danger."
Tao Zi nodded and didn't care about this question. After all, from the moment she made the decision, she was aware of the dangers she might face.
not to mention……
She didn't say anything else, but just squeezed the jade pendant.
