Chapter 1635 Dragon Head
The light dispersed, revealing the figure inside, it was Liang Yan who had rushed all the way here.
Ever since he discovered the abnormality in the pages of the book when he was young, he had an idea in mind, and then left the town where he was, hiding his whereabouts and traveling quietly. It took him a full three hours to reach the current place. town.
At this moment, it was just dawn, but the town was bustling with activity. There was an endless stream of monks coming and going, and there were many escaping lights speeding past in the distance. It was obvious that this town was more prosperous than the one he was in before. many.
When we arrived at the city gate, we were immediately greeted by two monks.
One of the two people had a kind appearance, the other had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. Both of them were in the middle stage of Juyuan Realm. When they saw Liang Yan, instead of being afraid, they took the initiative to come over.
The kind-looking man among them smiled and said: "Senior, are you also here to participate in the auction?"
Liang Yan glanced at them and said lightly: "So what? ?”
“Senior doesn’t know something.”
The man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "Although there are many auctions in this town, most of them are worthless things. I believe they cannot catch the eyes of seniors. If seniors want to gain something, they should participate in a certain Some secret exchange meetings”
"You mean the dark market, right?" Liang Yan said calmly.
"Exactly! Exactly!"
The two nodded repeatedly, and the kind man among them smiled and said: "It seems that the seniors are also knowledgeable people. To be honest, there is one here. The dark market opens every day, and there is still half a stick of incense left.”
The man said no more.
Liang Yan understands what he means. In fact, there are such "leaders" in many places. Because the dark markets are mostly secretive, many people want to enter the dark market but have no way. Some well-informed people act as You only need to pay a small fee to play the role of "leader".
"Who runs this dark market you're talking about?" Liang Yan suddenly asked.
"This"
The two hesitated for a while, and the man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said through the message: "Senior, it is taboo to inquire about such things, but we two brothers can make an exception and ask Please reveal something. It is said that the dark market here is a mysterious chamber of commerce."
"Mysterious chamber of commerce?"
Liang Yan's eyes flashed when he heard this.
The next moment, he waved his hand, and as a breeze blew by, a storage bag appeared in the kind man's hand.
The two of them reacted at the same time, hurriedly opened the bag and put their consciousness into it.
Soon, their faces were filled with smiles.
"Senior is so generous, I will lead the way for you."
The two of them nodded and bowed, flattered him to the extreme, put away their storage bags, turned around and led the way.
The three of them entered the city, turned left and right, and finally entered a remote alley.
There is a temporary house in the alley, which looks very simple from a distance. But when the three of them passed through the gate and entered the compound, the surrounding scenery changed drastically.
It was a seven-story building, and every floor was crowded with people.
The glow of the treasure, the aroma of the elixir, and the killing aura of the magic weapon's sharp blade are revealed from the attic, making people want to take a closer look.
The two people walking in front stopped, and the kind man among them smiled and said:
"Senior, this is the dark market. We brothers are only responsible for bringing you here. As for whether senior can enter, it is none of our business."
"Is this dark market still there? Don’t let people in?”
“Then It's hard to say." The kind man shook his head and said: "It is said that the chamber of commerce behind this dark market is very weird. It is not possible to participate in the auction here if you have spiritual stones. You have to have someone as a guarantee."
"Okay, you guys, please step back." Liang Yan waved his hand.
"I wish you good luck, senior." The two of them cupped their hands at the same time and walked out of the yard.
Liang Yan came to the door of the attic, and a dozen guards immediately surrounded him.
The leader was a young man. He couldn't see through Liang Yan's cultivation, and he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he stopped Liang Yan outside, cupped his fists and said, "Do you have a guarantor, fellow Taoist? "
"No."
"Sorry, we only welcome regular customers. Since you don't have a guarantee, please come back."
"I'm not here to participate. It's for the exchange meeting." Liang Yan smiled half-heartedly.
"Then you are?" The leading man was a little confused.
"I'm here to see the president of your chamber of commerce."
"What?!"
All the guards present were startled, and their eyes became obviously wary.
"Who are you? How did you know that our president is here? What is your purpose in meeting him?"
"Noisy."
Liang Yan waved his sleeves, the breeze blew by, and the sword energy dispersed.
Everyone present felt that their Dantian seemed to be pierced by a sharp energy, and all the spiritual energy around their bodies was stagnant. Not only could their bodies not move, but they could not even make a sound.
A dozen guards stood blankly at the door, looking at Liang Yan with wide eyes, as if they saw an extremely terrifying existence.
Liang Yan ignored them and flashed over everyone's heads, appearing directly on the seventh floor of the attic.
On this level, the sun is shining brightly and the spring water is clear.
There is a stone table next to the spring, and a beautiful man is sitting in front of the stone table.
This man has eyebrows like willows and a body like a jade tree. He wears a black robe, which makes his snow-white skin even more crystal clear.
He brewed a cup of spiritual tea on the stone table. The aroma of tea overflowed and the smoke was lingering. Through the smoke, he could vaguely see a chessboard in mid-air. On the chessboard, the black and white sides were fighting at a critical moment.
“You’re here.” The young man said leisurely while still playing chess without looking back.
Liang Yan's eyes flashed: "You don't seem surprised at all?"
"Haha, since you can use those ten pages to find me, why do you think I can't sense you through the magic weapon in my hand? "
"Yes."
Liang Yan nodded and said: "Back then, you saw me getting the 'Heavenly Evil Map' in the Thousand Magic Tower. You expected it at that time. Is it today?"
year After hearing this, the young man smiled slightly and said: "The restrictions I left in the Tianxie Map were originally used to deal with Yan Xiazi, but I didn't expect that he was killed by you, and the Tianxie Map also came into your hands. However, It doesn't matter to me, if If you can crack the method I left behind, then we will naturally have a chance to meet each other. If you are killed by the method I left behind, it only means that the two of us are not destined, and there will be no meeting today. ”
"Your Excellency is very calculating."
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Should I call you 'Luo Qing', or should I call you 'Ren Yi'?"
"I have no name. My name is just a code name. If you must give me a name, then Call me 'Luo Qing'." After Luo Qing said this, she paused and laughed again: "I have to say, you are really courageous! You dare to go to the meeting alone, aren't you afraid that I will kill you? ”
“Why are you alarmist?”
Liang Yan sat down casually in front of the stone table, took a sip of spiritual tea, and said leisurely: "We Ming people don't tell secrets. As the president of the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce and the master of the Tianxie Pavilion, you can't come to Wuzhuang Mountain just for Just to do business?"
"What do you mean?" Luo Qing's face remained unchanged, but there was a sparkle in her eyes.
"Haha." Liang Yan smiled slightly and said: "The Canglong overcame the tribulation and became a saint immediately! There is probably a huge opportunity on Wuzhuang Mountain. Some people with evil intentions have long been unable to hold back and hide. Are you ready to move in the dark?"
Hearing this, Luo Qing's tense face suddenly relaxed.
“Is this ‘person with evil intentions’ you are talking about you or me?”
"Everyone is talking to each other."
Liang Yan took a sip of spiritual tea and said calmly: "This is at the foot of Wuzhuang Mountain. You don't want to make things bigger, right? Can we talk about it now?"
“Of course!”
< br>Luo Qing laughed and said: "I am a businessman, and the most important thing for a businessman is win-win cooperation! Although we were a little unhappy in the past, it did not affect our cooperation at all."
" OK! ”
Liang Yan put down the tea cup in his hand and said slowly: "I have only one purpose, help me enter the mountain."
"You want to sneak into Wuzhuang Mountain?" Luo Qing observed Liang Yan carefully, with sharp eyes, as if Want to see through his mind.
Liang Yan's expression remained unchanged and he said calmly: "You must have a way to sneak in, right? In other words, you were going to send someone to sneak in."
As soon as these words came out , Luo Qing's eyes flashed, and she didn't speak again.
The two fell into silence at the same time, and the atmosphere in the place was strangely silent.
I don't know how long it took, but Luo Qing suddenly laughed: "Liang Yan, Liang Yan, you are indeed an interesting person. I didn't misjudge you back then. However, I am a little curious now, why do you think I want to help you?" ?”
“Just because I know your whereabouts”
Liang Yan played with the tea on the table. Cup, smiled and said: "Just imagine, if the whereabouts of Tianxie Pavilion were exposed in front of Wuzhuang Mountain, and 'Canglong' learned that at the critical moment of overcoming the tribulation, there was such a strange organization lurking nearby, how would he react? ?”
“It will not be good for you if you do this!” Luo Qing said solemnly.
“I can’t enter Wuzhuang Mountain in the first place. I’m not afraid of wearing shoes when I’m barefoot. The worst we can do is break up!”
Liang Yan acted extremely tough, which made Luo Qing's eyes show hesitation for the first time.
After a while, Liang Yan spoke again, this time in a much kinder tone.
"As far as I know, there are more than ten members of Tianxie Pavilion. They have died and been injured over the years. You don't have many available people anymore, right? As long as you agree to help me sneak into the Five Zhuang Shan, I can help you perform a task within my capabilities. If we work together, we will both benefit, and if we divide, we will suffer two harms. The stakes here are Please think about it yourself."
"It's a good idea of 'cooperation will benefit both sides, division will cause two harms'!"
Luo Qing laughed: "In the past, I was the one who advised others. I surrendered to 'Tianxie Pavilion', I didn't expect someone to take the initiative to seduce me today, it's really a turn of events!"
"Position is unpredictable, water has no shape, that's how things are in the world. Isn't it beautiful that you and I each take what we need?" Liang Yan said again.
"Since you have said this, it seems that I have no reason to refuse?"
Luo Qing smiled slightly, flicked his right sleeve, and the teacup on the table suddenly vibrated. stand up.
After a while, the tea flew out of the cup, changing constantly in mid-air, and finally turned into a map.
"Tonight at midnight, you put on the 'Dragon Head Mask' and come to this place to find me."
Luo Qing said, pointing to a certain location on the map.
Liang Yan looked at it intently and found that it was far away from the town and seemed to be a forest at the foot of Wuzhuang Mountain.
"This place is already close to Wuzhuang Mountain. There are many restrictions and patrolling disciples around. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by them?" Liang Yan frowned.
"Haha, I have pointed out the direction for you. The rest is up to you."
Luo Qing smiled, flicked his right sleeve, and the map disappeared in mid-air. Out of sight, the tea returned to the cup.
"Okay, it's a deal! Liang will definitely go to the appointment at midnight tonight!"
Liang Yan stood up, glanced at Luo Qing one last time, turned around and left the attic without saying anything else.
When he came to the door, he flicked his sleeves, and the sword energy that pierced everyone's Dantian flew back and dissipated in mid-air.
“Ouch!”
In a series of screams, the guards staggered and lay on the ground.
Liang Yan left the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce without looking back.
After he came out, he did not stay in the town. Instead, he went out to find a place with beautiful scenery, where he sat cross-legged and meditated, quietly waiting for the appointed moment.
Time flies by, and in a blink of an eye, the sun sets and night falls.
After nightfall, Liang Yan slowly opened his eyes.
He took out a dragon-head mask from the storage ring, rubbed it in his hand for a while, and then put it on his face.
The moment the mask was put on, the aura around Liang Yan immediately changed. Although his cultivation level was exactly the same as before, he looked like a different person.
"The masks of Tianxie Pavilion really have some skills."
Liang Yan touched the mask on his face and sighed secretly in his heart.
The next moment, his figure flashed and disappeared into the night.
Under Wuzhuang Mountain, the scenery is beautiful, including mountain springs, waterfalls, small bridges, and endless forests. .
Liang Yan walked forward under the night. In order not to attract attention, he did not use the escape light, but walked on his legs.
Following a winding river to the west, about two hours later, a vast forest appeared in front of Liang Yan.
The forest was very quiet, and there were shadows between the trees, as if people were moving, but when I looked carefully, I felt that everything was normal.
Liang Yan stopped and narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to hesitate.
But after a moment, he still opened his legs and continued to walk forward.
brush!
Just when he took the seventh step forward, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. The trees in front began to twist and deform, turning into thick and long pythons, swooping in his direction. .
Liang Yan seemed to have expected it, his eyes remained calm, he raised his right hand, golden light burst out from his palm, and slapped the oncoming snakes.
However, at the moment when the golden light was about to touch the group of snakes, these pythons suddenly got into the ground and disappeared without a trace.
The next moment, the ground beneath Liang Yan's feet cracked open without warning!
From the cracks in the ground, rivers of blood rose into the sky, and the disappearing pythons also flew out of the blood rivers, biting Liang Yan's hands and feet at the same time.
