Chapter 690 Stay safe
...
The first person to enter the inn was a Qingyi. This person had a handsome face and was extremely handsome. He was the kind of elegance that made anyone feel ashamed of when they saw him. In addition, the aura of a strong man emitted by his every move can attract everyone's attention.
Luo Mingzhou.
Ou Chuyang was so familiar with this man's appearance. When he was an ignorant boy, he formed a deep hatred with Luo Mingzhou. A palm on Xiaodang Mountain almost killed Ou Chuyang. The underground hall in the holy land robbed the original wood spirit, and Ou Chuyang almost killed him. However, perhaps it was the enemy in his fate. Luo Mingzhou not only lived well, but also judging from his current aura, he had been promoted to the realm of Wu Kuang.
This promotion speed surprised Ou Chuyang. Although he knew that his entry was perverted enough and Luo Mingzhou was not as good as that, but Ou Chuyang had experienced many hardships before he reached his current realm. Two major origin wood spirits, mysterious origin purple qi, countless powerful elixirs, and finally he needed to add a Martial God Pill that could be called a level 8 pill to be like this.
It can be seen from this that Luo Mingzhou's path is basically not far from himself. Behind such strength, the efforts of the entire Chiyang Palace must be condensed.
A desperate murderous intent emerged in his eyes, and Ou Chuyang's fists couldn't help but clenched. Ou Chuyang knew that if it were not the critical moment when the eight major families gathered together to explore the treasure, he took action by himself at the moment when Luo Mingzhou appeared. Ou Chuyang was now enduring. Compared to the hatred between the two, the treasure was more serious at the moment, and there was no way to lose it at this time.
So, just as Huang Lang roared and was about to take action, Ou Chuyang stopped him.
"Brother, now is not the time." After a whisper, Ou Chuyang gently opened his hand holding Huang Lang's arm tightly.
Just glanced at Huang Lang, Luo Mingzhou ignored it, but instead clasped his fists and said to everyone: "Luo Mingzhou of Chiyang Palace has seen all the seniors."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Mingzhou entered the inn, and then a group of people walked in.
The first person to enter was a middle-aged man and two old men. Seeing the middle-aged man, there was no change in his face. He nodded secretly and made Ou Chuyang understand that he knew this person. However, when the latter two old men appeared, the former two were obviously stunned, and then a hint of doubt appeared on his indifferent expression.
Ou Chuyang didn't recognize the three of them, but Ou Qing knew one of them, so he pointed to the first middle-aged man who came in and whispered to Ou Chuyang: "His name is Luo Xu, the second son of the Luo family, and he should be Luo Mingzhou's uncle."
Upon hearing this, Ou Chuyang nodded secretly. At this time, Xiao Chen stepped forward and hugged Luo Xu and said, "Brother Luo."
"Brother Xiao, don't be fine." Luo Yang replied.
Xiao Chen nodded, with a look of confusion, and asked, "Why didn't you see the head of Luo Hong family? Are these two?"
"Uncle Xiao~" Before Luo Xu could speak, Luo Mingzhou continued: "Grandpa, he is in seclusion recently and cannot get out of his body, so he ordered Mingzhou to come. These two are the elders of my Chiyang Palace, Luo Tian, and Luo Hai."
"Hello, two." Xiao Chen greeted him politely.
Immediately afterwards, four people entered the door of the inn, two middle-aged men and one old man. This time Xiao Gu met him first.
"Old man Dongfang, haha, I didn't expect to see you here."
The old man who was called the old man by Xiao Gu was the current head of the Dongfang family: Dongfang Wuya, and the two middle-aged people behind him were his two sons: Dongfang Xiao and Dongfang Yin. As for the woman walking behind him, it made Ou Chuyang feel moved.
"Xue'er?" I thought to myself. Ou Chuyang finally met Dongfang Xue, who had blocked Luo Mingzhou's palm for him several years later.
Seeing the change in Ou Chuyang's expression, Mu Wanqing was slightly stunned, and then she realized that this woman was Dongfang Xue mentioned by Ou Chuyang. So Mu Wanqing looked at it carefully.
Like Mu Wanqing, Dongfang Xue is still dressed in white, giving people a sense of holiness. Compared to a few years ago, Dongfang Xue is less tender as a young girl and more mature women's temperament. Her graceful figure looks more charming and full of charm.
There have been countless times, Ou Chuyang has guessed what kind of expression they would look like when they meet again, but what Ou Chuyang never expected was that when they meet, Dongfang Xue gave him a strange feeling.
Strange, it is strange. I was originally with Dongfang Xue, Xiao Ling'er and others in the holy land for three years, but they were almost always there for the past three years. This long-standing relationship has been built up by time, just like when I first met Xiao Ling'er, although the former did not speak, she still gave Ou Chuyang a smile. This is a manifestation of friendship.
However, Dongfang Xue was not like this. For some reason, Ou Chuyang not only saw melancholy in his eyes, but also saw a look of fear.
Frowning, Ou Chuyang didn't say anything, just watched everyone greet each other, but he turned a deaf ear and kept looking at Dongfang Xue.
As if he felt Ou Chuyang's gaze, Dongfang Xue subconsciously raised her head. When the two of them had their eyes intersected, the latter lowered his head again. Obviously, he did not dare to look at Ou Chuyang in front of him.
Dongfang Xue's gaze made Ou Chuyang quiet. He did not rush to say hello, but sat down instead.
At this time, several more figures walked in one after another. As soon as these people entered the inn, Hu Hen laughed.
"Brother Cheng, Nephew Cheng."
"Brother Hu?" The leader is an old man who is nearly 70 years old. After seeing Hu Heng, he was quite happy, like an old friend he had not seen for many years.
After saying hello to Hu Hen, the old man looked at everyone and introduced himself: "I, Cheng Yue, this is my second brother: Cheng Xian, the dog's son Cheng Feng. I have seen you all."
"Cheng Yue?" Dongfang Wuya exclaimed and said, "The Cheng family of Tuta Duchy?"
"That's right." Cheng Yue smiled.
As soon as they heard the Cheng family, everyone suddenly realized that this person was another family who had obtained the Lichoue Sword.
"Haha~, everyone came very early. Pang Lie was late. I hope everyone will blame you."
A crazy laughter came in, and Pang Lie, the head of the Pang family in the floating hall, walked in with the two of them.
Hearing this name, Ou Chuyang raised his head again, suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, and looked at Pang Lie.
As soon as Pang Lie entered the room, he greeted everyone with great familiarity. When his eyes turned to the Ou family, his face suddenly turned cold and he snorted: "Ou Qing, I didn't expect you to come."
The change in Pang's story did not make everyone feel inappropriate. There are rumors on the mainland about the death of Pang Zimo, the young leader of the Pang family. Although the murderer has not been found yet, the incident of the floating palace prosecuting Xiaodangshan has spread throughout the continent. Now that the two families have reunited again, the enemy has not yet disappeared, and the fighting spirit between each other has suddenly risen, breaking the once happy atmosphere in the inn.
Ou Qing sneered and joked: "What did the head of the Pang family say? Why don't you dare to come?"
"Hmph~" Pang Lie snorted, released his aura with a sudden momentum, and looked directly at Ou Qingsen Ran and said, "The account between Xiaodang Mountain and the Fuxing Palace should be calculated with your Ou family."
Faced with Pang Lie's threat, Ou Qing smiled disdainfully and said, "If the murderer has not been found, you will cause trouble for my Ou family. This account should be calculated carefully."
"I'm afraid you won't do it." Pang Lie said, and was about to take action.
"Brother Pang, don't be irritated." At this time, another loud shout containing internal energy came in from outside the door. As the sound approached, three figures walked into the inn one after another.
Among these three people, Ou Chuyang knew, two of them were Nangong Bo and Nangong Yue from Xuannan Mountain. As for the person who was the leader, there is no need to ask, he must be the contemporary head of the Nangong family: Nangong Lie.
As soon as Nangong Lie entered the house, he exchanged greetings first, then walked to Pang Lie and said, "Today is the day for our eight major families to gather together. In my opinion, if you have any grudges, it is not too late to talk about it after this matter. Now I still hope that the eight major families can unite and resist foreign enemies."
At this time, Dongfang Wuya also came over and echoed: "What Brother Nangong said is very true. You two will relieve the anger. Soon, we need to work together to check the location of the treasure."
Among the eight major families, the Nangong family in Xuannanshan and the Dongfang family in Wuyushan ranked first. With the persuasion of these two major leaders, Pang Lie could not have given face. He glared at Ou Qing again, then found a table, and sat down with his two sons.
All the eight major families have arrived. Everyone met each other, introduced them again, found their own place and sat down.
As one of the initiators of this treasure investigation and the most substantial family, the Nangong family stood up without objection.
Nangong Lie looked at everyone and said aloud: "You can travel thousands of miles to gather here from all over the mainland. On behalf of the initiators of this time, I, Nangong Lie, thank you for your support."
First, thanked her, while Nangong Lie lowered his posture, he also won the favor of everyone.
After giving a gift, Nangong Lie continued: "Everyone knows that the existence of the Eight Great Family is related to a shocking secret. This secret is in our Eight Divisions' Battle Trigrams. I believe everyone has already known the guidance on this secret, so we chose the meeting place here. To be honest, not far from the south of this place is the Hammer-falling Tower. A few days ago, I have arrived here. In order to save trouble, I went down there once. I also found something special. I want to ask everyone for my opinion now, should we rest for a night or go to the Hammer-falling Tower now."
"No need to rest." As soon as Nangong Lie finished speaking, Pang Lie said loudly: "We have been practicing for half a lifetime. We are still tired of this path. I think it's better to go and have a look now."
With Pang Lie's proposal, everyone nodded one after another, and even Ouqing did not reject the proposal.
"Okay. Please follow me."
Loess, boundless loess, covers the entire Luohammer Town.
In this area where only yellow but not green is seen, even though they are the strong men of the Eight Great Family, they are inevitably deeply disgusted by the loess climate.
In the sky, dozens of figures flew over and drew a beautiful arc of light on the southern extreme edge of the dust.
These dozens of figures were filled with strange lights around them. I think it was because of the internal energy that wrapped itself rigorously.
"Bah, what the hell is this weather?" Hu Guang, a burly man, cursed angrily, attracting the glare of the strong.
Although the climate here is abnormal, as a powerful martial arts practitioner, no one of the people has walked all the way from the harsh environment. But when he felt that the climate was not comfortable enough, he spoke out and scolded him. This person's mood was not ordinary.
Ignoring Hu Guang, everyone secretly vented their internal energy, isolated the dust, and looked directly at the tower-shaped building in the hazy sand and dust, and quickly swept over.
"arrive."
After flying for a while, Nangong Lie, who was leading the way, shouted softly, and then everyone landed at the foot of the tower-shaped building.
This is a nine-story earth tower. There is nothing within a range of thousands of meters around the earth tower, and even a small hill cannot be seen. It seems that this is the area of this earth tower, and nothing can be approached.
Seeing this earthen tower, everyone was shocked, and a wave of Ou Ming's doubt suddenly surged into their hearts.
In the perception of everyone, all the buildings in the world have complete structures and solid materials, especially tower-like buildings, which require stable masonry and stone to stand up and not fall.
However, what we see today has subverted everyone's understanding of common sense.
The nine-story earth tower is not half brick and half tiles. The entire earth tower is made of soft sand and soil, and there is no sign of condensation. At this time, everyone would not doubt at all. Now, someone just needs to touch it with his fingers, and the earth tower will immediately turn into dust in the sky and into nothingness.
"how so?"
He focused his mind and looked at it, and everyone exclaimed incredible sighs in unison.
Nangong Lie coughed lightly, as if he was afraid that his voice would be too loud, so he shook the unsolid earth tower and whispered: "Everyone is right, this earth tower is like this. When I saw it coming here for a few days, I was shocked by the earth tower."
"Brother Nangong, since you have been here, I have found nothing." Dongfang Wuya asked first.
Nangong Lie nodded and said, "I found something. I'm there."
As he said that, Nangong Lie pointed to the top of the tower. When everyone saw that at the tip of the top of the tower, there was a ray of yellow light that was flashing frequently. Although the yellow light was the same color as the loess, it seemed quite strange when it flashed.
"Go and have a look."
So, everyone rose up and was about to fly to the top of the tower to observe, but at this time, Nangong Lie shouted softly: "No."
"Buzz"
A harsh buzzing sound came, and when the fastest man in the head: Cheng Family Cheng Xian flew to the second floor, it suddenly resounded. Subconsciously, the people who had just flew away and rushed out in time, retreating out without following Cheng Xian's footsteps. Looking at each other again, there was a little fear in everyone's eyes.
"Second." Cheng Yue was angry and shouted, roaring towards Cheng Xian, and helped him up. When he looked again, Cheng Xian's breath was weak, his eyes were closed, but his whole body was trembling violently. However, there was a layer of dim yellow light on his body. It was like a shackle tightly wrapped around Cheng Xian, and as time passed, the yellow light shackle became tighter and tighter, as if he was going to trap Cheng Xian to death.
Seeing this, Cheng Yue hurriedly poured internal energy into Cheng Xian's body. As the internal energy continued to be transported, sweat oozed out of Cheng Yue's forehead. Fortunately, since Cheng Yue had reached the peak of martial arts, the powerful internal energy finally played some role.
Not long after, the yellow light shackles collapsed, and Cheng Xian finally woke up from the trap.
