Cultivation in the city

Everyone present was silent, and they dared not refute that you came here because you were worried about Chen Yan, nor did they feel ashamed that the latter said something against their will.

Even a person as stupid as Mang Niu knows that it is extremely immoral to expose others at this time.

On the other hand, Shi Lei, who was relatively smoother, seemed to be inadvertent, but actually revealed Chen Yan's situation everywhere in his words.

From killing all directions when he first came here, to falling down without warning, and the current situation that seems to have no problems, but still makes people dare not be careless.

"Didn't Chen Yan have any signs before he fell asleep?" Duan Xiaolou was surprised by Shi Lei's words and asked.

Chen Yan was very strong in his impression, so he always felt that the other party couldn't fall down for no reason, but if there were no signs, wouldn't it mean that the reason for this situation was hard to detect?

But if this is the case, why is it that he was the only one who was recruited when everyone else was fine?

"We had just arrived here, and Brother Yan was still fine, and told us to perform our duties. And before he fell down, he was still explaining the arrangements for the next day, but he fell down while talking. At first we thought It was plotted by others, but during the few days when the news was blocked, no one else was abnormal, and no one specifically targeted us. Later, the news could not be concealed, and other people took action." Shi Lei said.

"It doesn't sound like man-made." Dabai analyzed.

"We'll have to check the situation to find out." Duan Xiaolou nodded.

The group of people talked on their lips, but their pace was not slow.So soon returned to the small village.

From a distance, Duan Xiaolou saw Deng Feng and others who were repairing the house.

The house they lived in looked like a dilapidated small temple. The bricks and tiles on the roof were crooked. Although there were no holes in the walls, there were obvious cracks, not to mention the doors and windows.

From Shi Lei's Duan Xiaolou, they learned that they didn't live in this place when they first arrived here, but a relatively luxurious house in the village.It was only later that they moved to their current residence in order to narrow down their targets because of Chen Yan's collapse.

Duan Xiaolou frowned and said, "You guys live in this place?"

Shi Lei replied helplessly: "There is no way, if we don't give in, it may be even more difficult."

Duan Xiaolou's expression was calm, but his words were full of fierce feeling: "Some problems cannot be solved by giving in."

Shi Lei and Mang Niu couldn't help lowering their heads, couldn't they?

They backed down everywhere, but what they got in exchange was the fierce pursuit of the other party. If the problem could really be solved through a house, how could it happen that the two of them were chased in the wild?

"Let's go, let's go there quickly." Duan Xiaolou didn't mean to blame them either. To some extent, their retreat did give him a chance to breathe.It's just that if they don't happen to feel that this opportunity is actually useless.

It can only be said that it was a coincidence that they did not encounter any major dangers, which is something to be thankful for.

Deng Feng and the others who were repairing the house were first surprised when they saw Shi Lei and the others come back covered in blood. After they observed carefully and found that the two of them were moving without hindrance, they let go of the anger in their hearts.

Deng Feng was a little more familiar with Duan Xiaolou than the others, so she recognized Duan Xiaolou first.

"Xiaolou? Why are you here?" Deng Feng asked in surprise.

Unlike other people who may have various conjectures, Deng Feng is very clear about how strict the entry and exit of the secret realm is. Besides, Duan Xiaolou has not appeared in the list of entering here from the beginning to the end, and it is impossible to have a relationship with them. Come in the same batch.

So how did the other party get here?And how did you find them?

No. 44 is used to this scene, so he stood up very consciously and explained: "Although the entrance to the secret realm is closed, it is like a door being closed. As long as you have the key to unlock it, you can open the door at any time. Of course, the entrance to the secret realm does not rely on any real key, but some formations, and my master happens to be good at this, so I opened the entrance after a little research."

No. 44 glanced at Duan Xiaolou, and saw that the other party had no objection, so he continued: "As for how to find this place, it all depends on the master's compass. This compass seems to be able to locate the master's location. Come here. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to be too far away.”

"Of course it's not too far away, because the master secretly set up a positioning formation before opening the door." Dabai thought secretly.

Although No. 44 seems to be a bit higher in talent, Dabai's thoughts are more delicate.Duan Xiaolou did not avoid them when adding positioning formations, but this formation seems to be superimposed, not the knowledge they have come into contact with now, so Dabai only vaguely guessed the formation through what he had learned. use of the law.As for the final determination of the answer, isn't the appearance of Shi Lei and others the best proof?

Sometimes Dabai thinks that the relationship between Chen Yan and Duan Xiaolou is quite strange.

Let's say that the two are ambiguous, but when they get along, they seem very simple. Apart from acting more familiar than ordinary friends, there is no cross-border behavior.But to say that the two are just ordinary friends, I am afraid that even they themselves will not believe it.

May I ask which ordinary friend would never refute when his disciple called a man "Shigong"?

Thinking about the compass that Duan Xiaolou took out to locate Chen Yan's position, Dabai felt a feeling of deep thought and fear.

To have a "friend" who can find you at any time, in the eyes of a mortal like him, is really not such a wonderful thing.

Under the leadership of Deng Feng, Duan Xiaolou went straight to the place where Chen Yan was lying. When he saw Chen Yan on the weed pile, Duan Xiaolou felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

Ever since he met Chen Yan, the other party has always appeared in front of him as a proud son of heaven, when was there ever such a downcast time?

"Young Master Yan doesn't like others touching him, so..." Deng Feng couldn't help explaining seeing Duan Xiaolou's serious expression.

Duan Xiaolou nodded clearly. He didn't mean to blame them. Chen Yan didn't like people other than him approaching, that is to say, Duan's family could tolerate it a little bit.Therefore, rather than having someone help tidy up his appearance, Chen Yan would rather look like this, covered in dust and left alone.

"He doesn't seem to have any major problems. I will solve your safety problems first, and then I will wholeheartedly help him with treatment." Duan Xiaolou said.

"Young Master Lou, what do you mean...do you know what happened to Brother Yan?" Shi Lei couldn't help asking.

Duan Xiaolou shook his head and said, "We'll have to look at the specific situation again, but I should be able to solve it. I'll set up a formation here and give you enough food and equipment. If I can't wake Chen Yan up within a week , you leave first, and I will find a way to catch up with you."

"But..." No. 44 knew that Duan Xiaolou's decision would not be changed easily, but still couldn't help pleading.

"No, but, you can stay here with me for a week, and leave as soon as the time is up." Probably because he felt that his tone was too serious, Duan Xiaolou slowed down his voice again, "You have seen me break the formation, It should be clear that even if the entrance here is completely closed, I can find a way to go back, so don't worry. On the contrary, if you delay the time to go back this time, you don't know when you want to go out. As for my safety, Don't worry about it. In addition, Deng Feng came here to find a blind medicinal material, and let her stay and guard Chen Yan for so long. I will remember this friendship. The next task for you is to help her as much as possible while ensuring your own safety. Find the herbs, and escort them to the exit. Do you hear me clearly?"

"Listen clearly!" No. 44 and Dabai replied in unison.

Duan Xiaolou nodded in satisfaction.

Then he set up a formation around the entire house.

This formation is completely different from what Dabai and the others have seen in the past, and it seems to be much more complicated. This time, Duan Xiaolou did not give them a detailed explanation as usual, but told them that these formations are too advanced. When getting involved, how much they can comprehend depends entirely on their own understanding.

The two of them didn't shrink back because of Duan Xiaolou's words. Although they could only distinguish a little bit of familiar things from the numerous formations, this little thing was enough to benefit them a lot.

Although it was extremely difficult for them to find at the beginning, every time they found knowledge that they could understand, they would be extremely excited.Afterwards, this kind of learning seemed to become a kind of game, as if everyone came to find fault, and Duan Xiaolou occasionally gave them a little reward, which greatly stimulated their enthusiasm.

I don't know whether it is practice makes perfect or they really have further mastered the knowledge they have learned. In short, after a period of time, both No. 44 and Dabai found that they had made great progress in finding the formation.

"Master, did you arrange for us to study like this on purpose?" No. 44 couldn't help asking.

Dabai couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and as expected Duan Xiaolou said with a blank face: "What deliberate arrangement?"

Well, although the teacher Duan Xiaolou can't be regarded as dereliction of duty, he doesn't think he will deliberately arrange such learning in order to cultivate students' interest. On the 44th, when I think about it carefully, I feel that I have idealized Duan Xiaolou too much - this is not something a master would do at all.

Duan Xiaolou really didn't have such meticulousness, he just hoped to master more knowledge before they left.

Yes, Duan Xiaolou never thought of going on the road with them at all, so judging from Chen Yan's current situation, there is no possibility of waking up in a short time.

It's not that Duan Xiaolou never thought about letting them all stay. This would not only ensure the safety of Chen Yan and himself, but in turn he could better protect the safety of this group of people.But the flow of time here is too fast. If Duan Xiaolou cannot take advantage of the opening of the secret realm to send them out, it will be difficult for Duan Xiaolou to guarantee that this group of people can leave while alive—after all, not everyone is at peace with him. Like Chen Yan, he has a longer lifespan than ordinary people.

As for him taking Chen Yan and leaving with them, it was even more impossible.If the road is dangerous, they are fine with it. If someone targets Chen Yan, who can absolutely guarantee Chen Yan's safety?Secondly, Chen Yan's situation is not suitable for moving, so it's better to stick to this place. Anyway, there is a formation guarding it, and it is difficult for anyone to break through it.The third is that Duan Xiaolou was worried that he and Chen Yan would not be able to get on the road for too long after going out, which would arouse concerns from relatives and friends. It would be better to take advantage of the time difference here to solve Chen Yan's problem before going out.

Duan Xiaolou's thoughts were good, but he overlooked one point, which was how to treat Chen Yan's condition.

Chen Yan's body didn't feel any discomfort, at most it was a little stiff after lying down for a long time, but his spirit was immersed in a certain moment and he couldn't wake up, so Duan Xiaolou thought for a long time, and finally decided to adopt the method of "entering a dream" to enter the Go to Chen Yan's spiritual world.

Of course, entering the spiritual world is not that simple. Fortunately, because he couldn't resist Xiaobai's request to bring the other party to the secret realm, and Chen Yan's spiritual power did not repel him, this made him successfully squeezed into Chen Yan's " world".

This entry can frighten others.

They didn't expect that Duan Xiaolou had clearly agreed to treat Chen Yan, but for some reason, he suddenly fell asleep with Chen Yan at the same time!

On the seventh day, when Deng Feng was still debating whether to leave or stay, Dabai and No. 44 had already packed their luggage.

"Let's go, the master told me that we must leave in a week. No matter what, we must leave." This time it was Dabai who was always calm and convincing.

And No. 44, who has always been unreliable in jumping off, was secretly crying at this time, standing beside Dabai without saying a word.

With luggage on his back, it was obvious that he had made the same decision.

The author has something to say: Xiaobai is a combination of nightmares and mirrors
