Following a faint scent, Xu Chong came over and finally stood outside an unfamiliar courtyard.

I saw a small courtyard in front of me surrounded by a neat fence, and there were a row of courtyards of the same specifications around it. It looked like a residence prepared for disciples by a certain mountain sect.

He was standing in one of the courtyards on the outside. The gate was closed, and a wooden sign was hung on the door frame, with three small characters "Yunxiang Courtyard" carved in regular script.

Xu Chong stood at the edge of the yard, looking at the unfamiliar environment around him. He seemed to have just come to his senses, and looked stunned: "What is this place?"

Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he felt a mysterious and dangerous aura approaching rapidly. A sense of uneasiness arose in his heart, and he looked towards somewhere in the darkness with alertness.

Just at this time, there was movement in the house.

The room, which was originally lit, suddenly went out and fell into darkness.

Before the lights went out, Xu Chong vaguely saw the silhouette of a woman, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

"Who is in this room? It seems that the aura here attracted him just now."

Before he could figure it out, a dark shadow fell behind Xu Chong. The aura was so strong that it went straight to his heart.

It was as if a huge hand had grabbed his heart, exerting force bit by bit.

Xu Chong's breathing was a little heavy. He covered his heart with his hands, and despair appeared in his eyes. At the same time, his eyes gradually turned red. He used all his strength to turn his head and look at the black shadow behind him: "You... who are you?"

After hearing Xu Chong's voice, the black shadow's aura trembled. He suddenly withdrew his spiritual power and looked at the man in front of him in disbelief and asked in a low voice: "Are you Xu Chong?"

Xu Chong felt his whole body relax. The pressure just now disappeared in an instant. His nasal cavity could finally get fresh air. He didn't care about anything else and just opened his mouth to gasp for air.

After a while, he recovered and raised his head suddenly. He looked at the shadow so close and asked, "Who... who are you?"

At this time, Zou Mubai walked out of the darkness, his whole body bathed in the bright moonlight.

Xu Chong recognized his exquisite and profound face at a glance, with surprise and confusion in his eyes: "Brother Zhou, why are you here? Didn't you leave?"

Zou Mubai was about to say something when he suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the room. His face changed, and he made a "shut up" gesture to Xu Chong, then pulled the person away quietly.

After about half an incense stick of time, the two stopped on a cliff.

Zou Mubai let go of Xu Chong's arm, walked forward a few steps, turned his back to him and said, "Tell me first, why were you there just now?"

Xu Chong was confused, but he still told the truth: "I was going to rest just now, but as soon as I lay down, I felt a dangerous aura, so I followed the aura and came here as if I had lost my mind."

Zou Mubai frowned suddenly, turned around, stared into Xu Chong's eyes and asked, "What is the dangerous aura you are talking about?"

At this time, Xu Chong's eyes were slightly red, so he looked charming and mysterious.

Xu Chong seemed to be thinking, and after a while he said quietly: "I can't really explain it. It's more familiar than dangerous. It's like the aura of those wandering souls that followed me before, but it's heavier than their evil aura."

In the past ten years, he has rarely felt this kind of aura. Mainly because his cultivation has been increasing day by day, those wronged souls and wandering souls who used to like to surround him have begun to fear him and stay away from him.

After Xu Chong finished speaking, he looked up at Zou Mubai and couldn't help asking the question in his heart: "Brother Zou, didn't you say you were going to look for someone? Did you find him? How come you are there too?"

Zou Mubai said in a slightly cold voice: "I also followed a familiar scent to find me. I found you right after I got here, but I mistook you for an enemy and almost hurt you by mistake."

Xu Chong caught a word in Zou Mu's words and asked, "Enemy? Do you have a grudge against that person?"

"Yeah." Zou Mubai nodded.

It should be considered a grudge.

The person who caused him to fall into a deep sleep a thousand years ago, and also caused several of his old friends to disappear, should not be considered a friend.

When Xu Chong heard this, he immediately grabbed Zou Mubai's wrist and said, "In that case, what are we still doing here? Go back and arrest that man!"

Zou Mubai shook his head: "When we showed up just now, that person might have already noticed us. Do you think he will still wait there for us to catch him?"

"Then do you know who lives in the courtyard? I think that courtyard looks like a residence prepared by a sect for its disciples. So your enemy may be hiding his identity in that sect."

Zou Mubai's eyes were as deep as a pool, and a playful smile appeared on the corners of his mouth: "He can't run away. I have already left a tracer incense outside that yard."

Tracking incense is a kind of spice developed by Si Yao himself a thousand years ago for tracking. That kind of spice is colorless and odorless, and only a special tracking butterfly can smell its fragrance.

As long as that person touches the tracking incense, the fragrance will remain on his body for a long time within a month.

After hearing this, Xu Chong felt relieved.

After a while, he looked at the moonlight above his head and yawned: "It's getting late, I'm going back to bed. Do you want to go back to Qingling Sect with me?"

Zou Mubai thought of the little girl of seven or eight years old, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

But he still shook his head: "Forget it, I still have some things to deal with here, I will go to see her in a few days. Don't tell her that I'm back yet, I want to give her a surprise."

Xu Chong nodded, then walked down the mountain with a dazed look in his eyes.

Zou Mubai hurriedly stopped him: "Wait, where are you going?"

"Go back."

"Go down the mountain from here! You're heading towards the cliff!"

Xu Chong shuddered suddenly, turned around and started jogging.

Looking at Xu Chong's back as he walked down the mountain, Zou Mubai sighed helplessly: "After being with this guy for so long, I wonder if Rong will be affected by his IQ."

At this time, He Ronger, who was sitting in the room meditating, suddenly sneezed.

She rubbed her itchy nose and muttered softly, "That guy Xu Chong must be talking about me again."

After saying that, she got off the bed, poured a cup of tea to moisten her throat, and when she looked down, she saw a pile of talisman papers she had just bought on the table. She had an idea and walked to the table and sat down.

She picked up the talisman pen, and with a thought, she wrote on a piece of yellow talisman paper. Soon, a complex rune appeared on the paper. The moment she put down the pen, the talisman paper emitted a faint golden light.

"It's done!"
