Chapter 343 Deep in the void, ghosts in the middle of the night

Shi Xuan remained calm on the surface, but his heart was filled with ups and downs. It wasn't because of cruelty and terror that he couldn't calm down. The Blood Demon Sect was much more cruel and terrifying than these.

But I thought that this empire was under the supervision of the formation, and it would not be difficult to do some shady bad things such as sneaking around, bribery and smuggling. However, it is impossible for such major and important cases to happen. Even if it happens, it will be done as soon as possible. The Sheriffs were able to track them down through the Imperial Formation, so no one would take the risk, but now it seems that's not the case? !

"I wonder if those women have been found?" Shi Xuan asked pretending to be casual.

The black-robed driver shook his head, with a look of unbearable expression on his face: "I'm afraid they have been killed for such a long time. Hey, I used to think that it would be dangerous in the weak points of the empire's formation such as ravines, underground, overseas, and outside the sky. I didn't expect that now in the imperial capital, This kind of thing can happen in other places, and there is no trace of it. Humph, in my opinion, there are 90% chance that those who preside over the imperial capital formation are traitors of the Yuan Fetus Cult, otherwise how could it be like this!"

Shi Xuan nodded. Without the power of the immortals, this formation would still require many people to control it, and some people could take advantage of various loopholes. However, Shi Xuan did not ask any more questions, so as not to expose his lack of common sense. You should be able to figure it out if you go to a library or store and look at the information.

Seeing that Shi Xuan didn't speak, the man in black robe apologized with a panicked look on his face: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that Mr. Shi didn't like hearing this."

Shi Xuan said warmly: "It's not your fault, it's just that Shi is a little emotional because of this matter."

The man in black robe then put aside his fear, but did not dare to say anything more, and quietly carried Shi Xuan back to the building.

On the following day, Shi Xuan did not look for other jobs. You must know that the one-hour sermon in the General's Mansion every day gave Yuan coins several times more than other jobs other than opening a soldier regiment. In addition, Shi Xuan was very interested in Yuan coins. There was no demand in itself, so Shi Xuan spent the time on making up for his common sense.

It turns out that Xu Qing Tianzun was preparing to survive the third decline of heaven and human beings in his own small thousand world. Out of caution, he closed the small thousand world and hid it. However, he did not expect that he would not be able to survive the third decline of heaven and human beings this time. , the body dies and the Tao disappears, and with his death, no one can find the hidden and sealed world.

From this, the core of the empire's formation has always been a temporary authority. In addition, various Taoism, Taoism, fairy magic, magic weapons, spiritual treasures, tribulation secret treasures, etc. have disappeared in Xiaoqian World. The empire's monks As time goes by, our highest level of cultivation is getting lower and lower.

As a result, the power of the imperial formation is getting smaller and smaller, and the scope of control is gradually shrinking. Now the formations in remote mountains, underground abyss, overseas desert islands, outer stars and other places are becoming increasingly weak, almost to the point of being ineffective. At the same time, , the formation in the city also has some loopholes to exploit.

…………

While waiting to climb the ladder, Shi Xuan happened to meet Li Wei and Huang Xiao. They couldn't help but smile at each other and chatted.

Seeing Huang Xiao's protruding belly, Shi Xuan remembered what the black-robed driver had just said about Yuan Prenatal Education, and reminded them cautiously: "When Shi came back just now, I listened to the driver in the car saying that Yuan Prenatal Education in the Imperial Capital has resurfaced, and has disappeared in the past month. Thirty-six women are about to give birth, you two must be extremely careful."

"What, Yuan Prenatal Education?!" Li Wei shouted in panic, while Huang Xiao's face turned extremely pale, as if the ghost stories he heard when he was a child were really appearing before his eyes.

Shi Xuan nodded cautiously.

Li Wei was at a loss and said: "It's not that Li doesn't believe Brother Shi, but this fact is too unbelievable. The catastrophe a hundred years ago was a nightmare in the minds of previous generations, and Li also has many classmates and friends in the imperial capital. , they have never mentioned this case, please tell me in detail, Brother Shi."

Shi Xuan understood how they felt, so he replied: "Shi Mou heard about this case from the driver of Jiangjun Mansion. I guess it is correct. Well, Shi Mou is currently a teacher of General Mansion." The latter sentence was shocking to see the two of them. Added after the expression.

Huang Xiao murmured to himself: "Since it's news from the General's Mansion, I guess it's correct. I just hope that Yuan Prenatal Education will not focus on small towns like ours."

The scene fell silent for a moment. Although Li Wei and Huang Xiao knew the news, their own strength was too low, so they couldn't think about it. They could only follow Shi Xuan into the climbing ladder.

When they reached the eighteenth floor and the three of them separated, Li Weicai forced a smile and said: "I haven't congratulated Brother Shi on entering the General's Mansion as a teacher. He is worthy of graduating from Xuqing Taoist Academy." He wanted to congratulate him, but was overwhelmed by the news. , laughing uglier than crying.

Shi Xuan comforted the couple. This kind of thing can only be prevented for the time being. Who knows where Yuan Prenatal Education is.

…………

After giving Xiao Yingyu eight days of Taoist lessons, Shi Xuan met Linyuan General Xiao Huarong for the first time.

Xiao Huarong, with a white face and clear eyebrows, looked exactly like Xiao Yingyu when he was grown up. He was greeted by two rows of guards, domestic servants, handymen, and maids, and walked into the open door, which was regarded as a triumphant return.

"Congratulations to the General for slaying the Golden Core Ghost." The people on both sides of the road congratulated in unison.

Shi Xuan, Xiao Cangtian and Xiao Huarong's wife were standing next to the lobby with Xiao Yingyu. Watching Xiao Huarong walking over, Xiao Yingyu stumbled and ran out happily, throwing herself into Xiao Huarong's arms in black clothes.

"Is this Mr. Shi? Xiao is busy with business, but he neglected you." After Xiao Huarong teased Xiao Yingyu for a few words, he turned to look at Shi Xuan with a gentle expression. He is a monk who has perfected his soul for many years. I wonder if he is waiting for the opportunity of a high-grade golden elixir, so he has not taken the elixir to advance.

Shi Xuan smiled lightly and said, "General Xiao, you're welcome." According to the rules, teachers generally have to be humble and flattering, but this was not in line with Shi Xuan's character, so he ignored it.

Xiao Huarong glanced at Shi Xuan with a smile, and regarded Shi Xuan as that kind of young man who was a little talented and a little aloof. He didn't care, and entered the lobby while joking with Shi Xuan and Xiao Cangtian.

After chatting casually for a while, the topic naturally turned to Yuan Prenatal Education, which shocked the imperial capital. Xiao Huarong frowned and said: "I didn't expect that Yuan Prenatal Education would make a comeback in just a hundred years. This is a serious problem in the world."

Some of the subordinates nearby did not see any uneasiness and said with a smile: "General, you are worrying too much. Venerable Wei Yu is still here, so the Yuan Prenatal Education will definitely give birth to the head soon."

A hundred years ago, Tianzha Tongzi founded the Yuan Prenatal Education. The emperor did not care about worldly affairs, and the major aristocratic families only cared about self-preservation and did not want to consume their own strength. Therefore, the Venerable Weiyu stood out and went to fight in the world to form the Weiyu Corps, and finally killed Tianzha Tongzi. overseas.

The Wei Emu Corps is composed of three great Yin God Lords and sixty Golden Pill Grandmasters. Once their secret battle formation is set up, even the Yin God Lords who are holding magic weapons or natal spiritual weapons will not be able to do it. The enemy later became the capital of Venerable Weiyu's fight with the noble family.

Xiao Cangtian shook his head and said: "Venerable Wei Yu is now competing with our aristocratic family for supremacy, and there is a high probability that he will raise the bandits to respect themselves."

Xiao Huarong also meant the same thing, so he nodded and said: "My uncle is right, and since the Tianzha boy was killed, everyone knows that one of their purposes is to find the Little Thousand World of Xuqing Tianzun through the secret treasure. Maybe many people will sit back and watch, adding fuel to the flames and waiting for the momentum.”

"Haha, Shi Mou heard that the Small Thousand Worlds are hidden deep in the void of formations?" Shi Xuan interrupted, remembering the jade slips he accidentally saw some time ago.

Xiao Huarong smiled and said: "Mr. Shi also knows this rumor? But where exactly is the Little Thousand World is not sure? After all, Tianzha Boy is dead."

Shi Xuan said nothing more, quietly listening to their discussion and absorbing information.

…………

One month later, the moon is shining brightly in the middle of the night.

Shi Xuan was guarding his breath inside, when a faint fluctuation of magic came from the window next door. If Shi Xuan hadn't been sensitive to his spiritual consciousness, it wouldn't have been detected by the spiritual sense of any monk in the Qi-entraining stage.

The green coat of arms on Shi Xuan's left hand instantly turned into purple jade. His consciousness unfolded and he discovered that outside the window of Li Wei and Huang Xiao's room, there was a baby-like green and gloomy ghost, leaving three faint horizontal lines on the window sill. Pattern.

Leave a trace? Doesn’t it have to be close to production? Shi Xuan thought as he watched the baby ghost's actions.

The traces were very faint, at least only a master of the Golden Pill could detect them. The baby ghost left with satisfaction at a very fast speed, disappearing on the other side of the city in the blink of an eye.

With a touch of Shi Xuan's spiritual consciousness, the trace disappeared, and then Shi Xuan turned into a wisp of breeze, lingering on the baby ghost that he had locked.

This green baby ghost wanders around Linyuan City, looking for pregnant women with children. Once found, it will leave traces on its residence. I don't know why, but the formation inspection went straight through the baby ghost as soon as it arrived, and did not find this strange thing. Shi Xuan also paid attention not to follow those places where the formation inspection was very strict. The formation inspection in ordinary places, After Shi Xuan used the Yin Yang Divine Mirror, he naturally could not be caught.

After several observations, Shi Xuan found that the one mark indicated that the birth was close, the two marks meant that there was still one month left, and so on. Of course, after Shi Xuan read it, he directly erased the mark.

As a result, there was a scene in Linyuan City of scribbling in the front and erasing in the back. In the process, Shi Xuan discovered four more baby ghosts.

By around the fourth watch, the five baby ghosts seemed to have searched the entire city, then turned into green smoke and headed out of the city.

Shi Xuan hung from a distance, followed these ghosts, blended into the wind, left Linyuan City, passed through the countryside where spiritual valleys and spiritual grass were planted, and came to a wilderness.

After passing through a small half of the wilderness, there was a large crack leading straight to the ground, deep and dark.

The five ghosts rushed directly into the crack without any hesitation. After Shi Xuan considered it for a moment, he followed with his spiritual consciousness and waited there for a while before going down.

The dark wind from the ground blew towards his face, but it did not pose any danger to Shi Xuan, it was just like a breeze blowing against his face.

The earthly evil wind gradually became stronger, and the evil wind ghosts began to appear. It was quite difficult to find the five ghosts among them, but at this time they did not continue downward, but flew to a hidden, horizontal crack next to them.
