Cultivation in the city

"What's wrong?" Chen Yan asked.

"Here, take a look, is there something wrong?" Duan Xiaolou pointed to a stone and asked.

Chen Yan had been looking at Duan Xiaolou just now, and didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation at all. After seeing it, he immediately found something wrong.

"The formation in this place obviously gathers spirit and energy, why does it attract such negative energy?" Chen Yan also felt strange.

These negative energies are somewhat similar to the dark energy in Lin Ze, but they are not as pure as Lin Ze's ability, and more like the product of "purification" from some filthy places by some method.

Duan Xiaolou did not answer Chen Yan's words immediately, but walked over to check the situation of the formation carefully.

This formation is to form a positive energy cycle through the power of the five elements, so as to achieve the effect of gathering spirit and energy. When the spirit energy gathers, the surrounding animals and plants will naturally benefit.As the spirit of all things, human beings will only benefit more.

But now, this formation is being corroded bit by bit, because it was originally a compact arrangement of one ring after another, but now because of the reversal of one ring, the entire formation is directly reversed.

Although it is impossible to know that the formation is destroyed just by looking at the appearance, but in the long run, this formation is not only not good for people, but will also have extremely bad effects.

"It's man-made." Duan Xiaolou came to a conclusion just touching the surface of the stone.

The black energy envelops the whole stone, but there is no problem inside the stone, and the black energy is even and fine. If it is not for external factors, it is impossible for the stone to have such a situation.

"Someone is targeting Misty Xuan." Chen Yan said in a cold voice.

Duan Xiaolou nodded, then the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said, "This is really interesting, I want to see who is playing with the ax at the door."

After Duan Xiaolou played tricks on Chen Yan and Dabai, the group left there calmly and walked towards the next formation.

Seeing Dabai's unsightly face, Duan Xiaolou comforted him, "It's just a little trick, it's not a big deal."

"Master, I just feel that I am a bit useless." He would check every important formation every once in a while, but he didn't find that this formation was manipulated at all. It is impossible to say that it was not hit at all. .

Duan Xiaolou patted his apprentice on the shoulder, but didn't say anything to comfort him.

In his opinion, Dabai has done a good job.

Duan Xiaolou originally thought that in such a world lacking in spiritual power, it would be difficult for the two apprentices without the corresponding environment to be able to make a difference if they had no talent, but he did not expect that their growth rate was much faster than he expected.

The speed at which the two of them absorbed knowledge was like a dry sponge being soaked in water, so talented Duan Xiaolou couldn't even utter derogatory words.

He was satisfied with these two apprentices from the bottom of his heart, and during the long time of getting along, he gradually regarded them as real disciples who entered the house.

When Duan Xiaolou saw No. 44, No. 44 was instructing everyone to make alchemy. When Duan Xiaolou came over, the originally serious No. 44 immediately showed a childlike smile.

He seemed to want to run to Duan Xiaolou's side, but was stopped by Duan Xiaolou's gesture. He could only pat his head with a smirk and continue to complete the task at hand.

Duan Xiaolou looked at No. 44 skillfully arranging the medicinal materials and adjusting the heat, and always had the feeling that his own child had grown up.

Chen Yan couldn't help being a little funny seeing Duan Xiaolou's emotional expression on the side.Duan Xiaolou himself is still a teenager, but he has a parental expression of "my family has a child who is just growing up", which is really interesting.

After dealing with the matter at hand on the 44th, he couldn't wait to run towards Duan Xiaolou's direction.

"Master, they told me to pick you up." No. 44 said coquettishly.

At the very beginning, he didn't dare to speak to Duan Xiaolou in this tone, and he was respectful every time he spoke, but as the relationship between the two deepened, No. 44 became more and more "presumptuous" in front of Duan Xiaolou. ".

"It's not that I don't have legs, not to mention that Chen Yan drove me off. It's troublesome for you to run back and forth." Duan Xiaolou said, "Everyone is tired too, let's go out and do some exercise. Today I will give you an early holiday, and your salary will be paid as usual."

The latter sentence was for others, so after Duan Xiaolou finished speaking, there was a burst of warm cheers in the room, and everyone left one after another. In the end, only Chen Yan, Duan Xiaolou and his two apprentices were left in the room.

"Master, what happened?" No. 44 asked with some concern.

Although he is not as smart and careful as Dabai, he has a very keen sense.Even though Duan Xiaolou only said a few words, he still noticed something was wrong.

Duan Xiaolou took out a triangular object from a ring similar to Chen Yan, put it on the ground, and then said: "Someone seems to be targeting Misty Xuan. I passed by a formation just now, and I found that someone tampered with the formation. , so I want to see if there is something wrong with the pill."

What Duan Xiaolou put on the ground was his self-made shielding device.

Modern technology sometimes produces unexpected effects. Although Duan Xiaolou is not afraid of these, he is still quite cautious when it is time to be cautious.Moreover, after his design and adjustment of this shielding device, it can not only shield modern signal receiving devices, but also shield energy fluctuations such as supernatural powers, which can be regarded as very comprehensive.

Pills and formations are the two pillar industries of Misty Xuan, and the formation has been manipulated, which made him wonder whether there is something wrong with the pills.

In Misty Xuan, whether it is a favorable environment, attractive food, or the effect of strengthening the body, it is inseparable from the assistance of pills and formations.Starting from these two aspects, let's not talk about the serious consequences that may arise, just that the other party can find the target so accurately, it is worth pondering.

Duan Xiaolou's suspicion was correct, not only was there a problem with the formation, but even the alchemy materials had been tampered with.

The light body pills need to use lotus seed rice, which was originally a very common blind material, and it has been handed over to the purchasing department for purchase, and the purchasing department has never had any problems.However, the lotus seed rice this time is obviously a poor quality product soaked in potion.At first glance, you can't tell the good from the bad, but as soon as Duan Xiaolou got started, he knew that the internal structure of the thing had been completely destroyed.

Adding this kind of thing to the elixir, not to mention strengthening the body, is simply harmful and useless.I don't know why the other party is so vicious, he dares to tamper with the things that are imported, and he is not afraid of implicating innocent people.

As if knowing what No. 44 was thinking, Duan Xiaolou sneered and said, "They have nothing to be afraid of. As long as it is not their own life, in their eyes, I am afraid that it is no different from a cat or a dog."

Having said that, the coldness in Duan Xiaolou's eyes is no less than that of No. 44.

He tapped the ring lightly, and a meowing sound suddenly came from the ring.

Afterwards, Xiao Bai appeared in front of everyone with graceful catwalks.

"Meow, what's the matter with asking me to come out?" Although she looks cute, the feeling of being owed hasn't changed at all.

Duan Xiaolou tapped his head lightly, signaling him to pay attention to his tone and words.

Xiaobai felt aggrieved and touched his head with his paws, then changed his tune and said, "What's the matter with asking me to come out?"

Duan Xiaolou pointed to a mirror in the room and said: "I want to monitor this place through this mirror, but I don't want to be noticed. Your ability is more concealed. Help me watch it. If you find any problems, tell me in time."

After listening to Duan Xiaolou's instructions, Xiaobai showed a reluctant look, but his steps towards the mirror were very straightforward.

He touched the edge of the mirror with his claws, then looked back at Duan Xiaolou, and said, "Okay."

Duan Xiaolou took Xiaobai back the ring, and said to the others: "The next step is to wait patiently."

……

Duan Xiaolou originally thought that he would wait for a long time, but he didn't expect the thief's patience to be so poor.

He deliberately revealed the false news that a large number of pills were temporarily transferred, and the insider really couldn't sit still. The other party took advantage of the opportunity of replenishment and replaced the originally ordered high-grade lotus seed rice with defective products soaked in the potion.

Because Duan Xiaolou strictly controlled the replenishment process this time, the only time the other party could find it was after everyone in the alchemy room finished their day's work.

That person was also cautious, not only blocked all the signals, but also took out the special ability detector specially made by the ability group to confirm that there were no obvious energy fluctuations around, and then started to do it.

He moved very fast, but Duan Xiaolou and others came even faster. Before he could walk out of the room, they got all the stolen goods, and there was no chance to quibble.

"Who ordered you to come, do you have other accomplices?" No. 44 asked angrily.

It never occurred to him that the person who betrayed them was Lao Yan who seemed very honest.

Lao Yan and he were both the first batch of students of Duan Xiaolou, so they have a deeper relationship than the later "students".

He always thought that the friendship between their group of classmates was different, but he didn't expect that the other party stabbed him hard without mercy.

Dabai could understand his anger very well, so he touched his head and took him into his arms.

No. 44 is a very sensitive child, perhaps related to his childhood experience, he pays special attention to the relationship between people.

Perhaps No. 44 was appeased by Dabai, and his mood gradually calmed down.

Duan Xiaolou on the side was not as angry as No. 44, he just snapped his fingers, and Xiaobai appeared on the table again.

Perhaps because he sensed Duan Xiaolou's low air pressure, this time Xiaobai behaved extraordinarily honestly.

Duan Xiaolou raised his chin in the direction of Lao Yan, and Xiao Bai immediately walked over knowingly.

His eyes seem to have undergone some changes, they are brighter and deeper, as if they can't see the bottom, revealing a soul-stirring light.

Lao Yan looked at Xiao Bai, but lost his mind for a moment.When he regained his senses, Duan Xiaolou and others were already gone.

He looked around and finally collapsed to the ground.

This is a prison cell, a special cell specially used to detain supernatural beings like him.

Here, all abilities will be useless.

It is said that this place was built with the help of Duan Xiaolou, in order to detain those who committed crimes.He had sent the prisoner here once, but he didn't expect that it would be like this when he came again.

If I hadn't been so greedy at the beginning, would it have been possible to change the ending?

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.
