Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion Chapter 207

  Chapter 207 206. We conducted a less than perfect infiltration

"Master Lei, is there any news about Xu Xianzi from your sect recently?" Xiao Xueting asked casually while walking on the road: "It has been some time since Xu Xianzi disappeared after the Battle of Poyang Daze."

Lei Jun: "Yes, we haven't heard from our eldest sister for a long time, but I believe that eldest sister Jiren has her own destiny."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Xueting knew that Xu Yuanzhen's ancestral remains left in Wanfa Zongtan were in good condition, and Xu Yuanzhen himself should certainly be fine.

 However, Xu Yuanzhen has not been seen back, and the people on Longhu Mountain are actually feeling anxious, hoping that she can return as soon as possible.

Shen Qubing suddenly asked curiously from the side: "Taoist Master Lei, the new Tang Tianshi of your sect, or the Fairy Xu, who is the top master of the Taoist Fu Lu Sect now?"

Since the death of the former Celestial Master Li Qingfeng and the previous elder Yu Qing of Huang Tiandao, the Taoist Fulu Sect has become known to the world in recent years. Several eighth-level masters are Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang, Li Song, and Li Hongyu. Taiping Taoist, head of Huang Tiandao.

Among them, Li Song and Li Hongyu were defeated by Tang Xiaotang one after another. Li Song was even killed by Tang Xiaotang himself, while Taiping Taoist was also defeated by Xu Yuanzhen.

Leaving aside other Taoist traditions, the Taoist Fulu sect is already like a river where the waves behind push the waves ahead, and the waves in front die on the beach.

“I can't say how strong the two three-day monks are.” Lei Jun shook his head and said with a smile.

Although we are not sure when, there will definitely be a battle between these two proud women, Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang. Even though the person in the whole family who has the best relationship with Tang Xiaotang is the elder sister Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang has been holding back her energy and waiting for that day.

Shen Qubing was very interested: "I'm just curious. Tang Tianshi is already so talented. Does Xu Xianzi, who became famous before her, also have an immortal body and a quiet understanding?"

Xiao Xueting cracked open a pine nut and said with a smile: "The Taoist Master Lei in front of you is also a peerless talent."

Lei Jun: "I don't dare to take it. I don't dare to take it. I asked myself how much hard work I have done in cultivation, but I can't compare with the senior sister and the head senior sister, nor can I compare with the two generals."

 He remained calm and did not answer relevant topics.

However, Xu Yuanzhen's talent is indeed more mysterious.

Unlike Tang Xiaotang, whose general situation is now almost world-famous, Xu Yuanzhen has always been relatively mysterious, as hard to guess as her usual behavior.

Lei Jun had only occasionally heard people mention that Xu Yuanzhen's practice was not as direct and rapid as Tang Xiaotang's.

Especially in the first few years when she first started, she even seemed a bit "mediocre". Of course, mediocrity here refers to those who are super geniuses, not the kind that makes people feel extremely dazzling at the first time.

However, as her years of practice deepened, her stamina seemed to become more and more abundant, and her potential was bottomless. She stood out unknowingly, leaving all her peers behind, and even surpassed countless senior teachers in the house.

At a young age, she had the nickname of Second Heavenly Master. Part of it was due to the outside world's instigation of discord, but the other part also corresponded to her strength and status in the Tianshi Mansion that ordinary people could not match.

In fact, many people are suspecting that if she had hidden her clumsiness when she first started, she might not be able to hide it from everyone's eyes. It is more likely that she had a great opportunity to improve her skills and understanding during her growth.

It's just that similar things are too rare and there is really no evidence. As for Xu Yuanzhen's specific situation, it is a mystery to the Longhushan sect, and it is even more difficult for the outside world to guess.

Lei Jun also seldom engages in related topics. In the eyes of many people, he is in a similar situation.

Of course, everyone's guess is correct. He did improve his foundation and understanding through acquired opportunities, but this kind of thing was done for his own enjoyment and it was not easy to publicize it on the stage.

“Not far ahead, we should be at Xinglongyuan.” Xiao Xueting still looked relaxed, knocking pine nuts calmly: “Let's sneak in and look for it.”

 She turned to look at Lei Jun and Shen Qubing: "What do you think about this infiltration?"

Shen Qubing: "Let's go in first and talk about it first. If we meet someone on the way, wouldn't it be great? We can take him directly and interrogate us about what we want to know."

As long as you kill everyone who sees you, no one can tip off the information, so we can complete a perfect infiltration, right... Lei Jun listened calmly.

 It doesn't necessarily mean that this plan is wrong. It is not impossible in theory, but there may be some technical, um, minor difficulties in execution.

“It's not necessary to be so aboveboard.” Xiao Xueting said, “Otherwise, it would be easy to catch the small fish and frighten the big fish away.”

 After putting away the pine nuts in her hand, she looked at Lei Jun: "What do you think of Master Lei?"

If it is really up to Taoist Master Lei to make the decision, his suggestion is that the two of us who have been there for three days will wait outside Xinglongyuan to help guard, and General Xiao, who has been there for three days, will go first to explore the way.

However, firstly, this goes against Taoist Master Lei's personality in front of outsiders, and secondly, according to the destiny indicated by the sign, there should be no serious problems in this trip.

 So Lei Jun said: "I think we should keep quiet for now and go down together to explore the environment before making further decisions."

He glanced at Shen Qubing: "Unfortunately, according to what General Shen said, he also showed up when he was at Jiushan Lake. The other party may have known his origin. Otherwise, General Shen could be asked to pretend to be someone from the opposite party and look for opportunities for us to mix up. If you go in, you may be able to find out more information.”

Hmm, okay, let's just say this casually.

Even if Shen Qubing was really new, he wouldn't be able to do such a job with his temperament.

As for Lei Jun and Xiao Xueting, it is even more impossible. Their portraits have long been spread all over the world, and they are also common here in the Southern Wilderness.

“Director Lei is here to help us. We don't want you to be in danger, but you can stay behind to help us. He wants me and Xiao Shen to go down.”

Xiao Xueting touched her white chin with her palm:

"For our side, Xiao Shen is in the bright light, go forward, and I will watch over you from the dark. This way, it will not be easy to scare away the big fish."

“…” Lei Jun leaned back slightly and looked at the other person up and down.

The first sentence is quite warm, but when I hear the second sentence, I feel something is wrong.

 Let the three-day-old among you go out in the open, and you, the three-day-old one, follow in the dark?

Girl, how can you say such cold words from your warm mouth?

With such a pure face, how can his thoughts be so violent?

 You seem quite normal when I get along with you. I didn't find you to be so vulgar... No, cross it out. I never found you to be so cautious. It's exactly the same as my original idea.

Well, to be honest, Xiao Xueting's plan was not to use Shen Qubing as cannon fodder, but because of technical considerations.

　　Martial arts monks have their essence, energy, and spirit all integrated into the physical body. Only when they passively sense crises and murderous intent from the outside world do they become particularly sharp, even more so than many monks who cultivate their souls.

 But active exploration of perception is not their strength.

 That's why Xiao Xueting made such a proposal.

Of course, conversely, all the energy and blood of a body is locked in the body and is not exposed. As long as the martial arts monks are willing to restrain themselves, it is also not easy to be sensed by monks from other Taoist traditions.

She looked solemn and discussed with Lei Jun and Shen Qubing seriously: "Xiao Shen, please be alert. There are some small waves that you need to deal with on your own."

Shen Qubing himself was eager to try: "I understand, Third Sister Xiao, it's up to me!"

Lei Jun: "Since we are traveling together, I will also go down. Please take care of me, two generals."

Xinglongyuan is a huge abyss, shrouded in hazy mist, flashing with little rays of light, like stars.

The valley below has different depths and complex terrain. There are mountain streams, flat dry valleys, waterfalls and deep pools, and the valleys are criss-crossed with rugged rocks.

 The entire valley is also covered in mist.

  Similar landforms are quite common in the southern wilderness, and each one has its own complex mysteries.

From what Xiao Xueting learned before, this place was once like a big lake with unpredictable depths. Then the lake gradually dried up, leaving only its current size. Lei Jun and his party descended into the valley and moved forward in the thick fog.

Shen Qubing took the lead and was at the forefront.

He grew up in the army and received relevant scouting training. Now he is hiding and moving, and he is very precise in all aspects of his work, which seems to be the same.

Just because of his temperament, he didn't know when he would suddenly explode, so Lei Jun followed quietly, mentally prepared for the other party to change from sneaking to coming out at any time.

On the other hand, Xiao Xueting turned three times and two times, looming in the star dragon abyss in the thick fog. After a while, even Lei Jun had a hard time finding his whereabouts.

He felt a slight shiver in his heart. This General Xiao was actually a good sneaker.

Although there is a gap between the realms of the two parties, Xiao Xueting lost his trace so quickly, which is indeed an expert.

Lei Jun immediately remembered that the opponent's first world-famous achievement was that he suddenly disappeared from the battlefield in the East China Sea, fought thousands of miles away, and suddenly appeared in the land of Wu and Yue, intercepted and killed the defeated King of Wu, and made the King of Wu drink in hatred on the spot and fled the capital. Couldn't escape.

 “Master Wang...this way please...”

 Suddenly there was a voice coming from the front.

Lei Jun restrained himself, took the magic eyepiece stone, and looked quietly.

Within the field of vision, a middle-aged Confucian scholar and a Taoist priest dressed in white and black robes were walking in the valley.

The Taoist priest's clothing is clearly the standard Taoist robe from the Chunyang Palace, the holy land of the Danding Sect of Taoism.

But when Lei Jun saw the Taoist priest's appearance, his heart moved slightly.

Appearance: Appearance: He is about forty years old, with a fairy-like appearance, a face like a crown of jade, and a sharp gaze.

Lei Jun has seen his portrait and remembers that his name is Wang Jingfang, and he is a monk from Chunyang Palace, but he needs to add the word "qian".

This Wang Jingfang was expelled from the Chunyang Palace a few years ago. He was announced to the world as a traitor and arrested. However, he fled to the southern wilderness and lost news.

　　Unexpectedly, he would now be related to the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Lei Jun put away the eyepiece stone and stopped observing the opponent.

Being stared at, Wang Jingfang obviously felt something. He glanced around, but for a while he couldn't find where the feeling that made him feel wrong came from.

 The middle-aged Confucian scholar beside him asked: "Master Wang?"

Wang Jingfang: "Is there any of your sentries nearby? Pindao just felt like he was being spied on..."

 Middle-aged Confucian scholar: "There are indeed some sentry posts. It is a troubled time right now. We are about to move out of here and move to another place. If we don't take care of the place well, please forgive me."

Wang Jingfang nodded slightly: "No wonder."

 Middle-aged Confucian scholar: "Daochang Wang is admirable for his superb cultivation."

He thought that he had lived in the southern wilderness for many years and had little contact with the outside world. He had long heard that the monks of the Taoist Alchemy Sect practiced intertwining life and death. His senses are keen, and when he saw him today, he lived up to his reputation. Although Wang Jingfang was a traitor to Chunyang Palace, he had undoubtedly obtained the true biography of Chunyang Palace.

This Confucian figure disappeared, but it has already pointed the way for Lei Jun and others.

Lei Jun walked quietly and discovered several hidden sentries placed by the opponent along the way.

 He did not alert these people, but continued to follow the direction that Wang Jingfang and Wang Jingfang were heading, deep into the Xinglong Abyss.

 After a while, Lei Jun suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart.

 He found that his piece of pure golden bamboo actually had some reaction.

Lei Jun took out the upper-clear golden bamboo that looked like a thick bamboo shoot at one end and a thin end at the other. He saw that the surface of the upper-clear golden bamboo was flashing with a faint golden light.

He looked closely and saw that these subtle golden lights turned into illusory branches and leaves, like new and tender bamboo branches and leaves.

　　Well, this is rare. Could the opportunity here be directed at my bamboo shoot... Lei Jun raised his eyebrows.

That's really thank you, I've long wanted to improve my painting style.

Lei Jun put away his golden bamboo and continued to move forward in the valley.

 After a while, he stopped.

 There seems to be an invisible barrier in front of us.

Not only did Lei Jun stand still, Yuanfang Shen Qubing also patiently stood still for the time being.

After an unknown amount of time, the barrier in front of me suddenly rippled like water, and then opened automatically.

Lei Jun and Shen Qubing looked together and saw many people coming out, carrying a lot of things.

 Looks like it's about to be relocated.

 They want to abandon this place and move somewhere else... Lei Jun immediately had an idea in his mind.

No wonder the new sign has a time limit of "within three days". Later than this time, all the survivors of the previous dynasty may not necessarily vacate this place, but the relevant opportunities may be lost.

Lei Jun was thinking about it when he suddenly saw a figure flashing in the distance. Taking advantage of the survivors of the previous dynasty to come in and out, he quickly rushed into the open barrier.

 Those who make such a prompt decision will naturally be sick.

 It should be said that the timing was well grasped, but in this way, the concealment was undoubtedly exposed.

There were shouts of curses and warnings immediately.

Although it made people laugh or cry a bit, this young man was very serious and beat the people who were surrounding him staggering in two or two blows.

The other party was originally arranged in an orderly manner, and the chaos in one place did not affect the careful vigilance of other places. However, within a short time, emergencies occurred frequently and manpower had to be transferred from the surrounding areas again and again.

Lei Jun watched helplessly as the plains in front of him turned into a flat plain.

 Sin, sin, General Xiao's happiness, I can feel it now... Lei Jun shook his head, easily passed the barrier, and entered the stronghold of the former dynasty's survivors in Xinglongyuan.

He climbed up the rock and looked out, and saw that in the valley there were people on their backs, and a strong figure was rushing left and right in the valley, constantly rising and falling.

Wang Jingfang, who had been in the valley earlier, came out of the reception room accompanied by the middle-aged Confucian scholar. The middle-aged Confucian scholar's face was ashen. Wang Jingfang looked at Shen Qubing, who was as tall as a flying dragon in the crowd: "Pindao said, someone just secretly Follow, sure enough!”
