Chapter 694: Someone From the Withered Wood Pavilion
Although Ye Tian's voice became hoarse and tired, he was full of energy, and he didn't look tired at all. On the contrary, his face was still full of longing and anticipation for completing the feng shui transformation of the small world outside the secret realm .
He also wanted to know what the secret realm would look like after the restoration.
Changing the Feng Shui of the secret realm with the method of Fengshui, and then using the unique innate suppression of the Tianling Secret Realm to complete self-repair, this can be said to be an unprecedented method of repairing the secret realm, and what effect will it have? Ye Tian It is also unknown. So in this regard, no matter how exhausted and exhausted he is, he still works hard for the result like an iron man who doesn't know how tired he is.
Right now, the direction of the dragon veins and mountains in the small world outside the secret realm has been firmly locked in, and the feng shui platforms are all over the entire Gobi desert, scattered around the Gobi pass like dots of stars. The basic preparatory work in the early stage is considered to be completely completed.
Next, it is to use the power of water and fire to induce changes in the law of feng shui here, and let it gradually evolve into another law of feng shui according to Ye Tian's thoughts.
"Immortal Chief, no matter what, I suggest that you stop for a day. During this period of time, both you and I will consume too much mind. For the next arrangement and casting spells, the harm will outweigh the benefits. But if you and I can rest for a day, we will continue with full energy. Continue to start, get twice the result with half the effort." Even if there is a miraculous pill such as Concentration Pill to supplement and consume, the state of the red snake at this time is not much better than Ye Tian's. Xia Yetian opened his mouth to make a suggestion.
Ye Tian had to admit that what the little red snake said was not that it was being lazy on purpose, but that it was true. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife is not the same as chopping wood. They have completed all the arrangements before, which is for the foundation, and now they are resting, they are sharpening the knife. Only when the knife is sharpened, and when they come down to drastically improve the Feng Shui rules of the secret place, will they have the best effect. The more at this time, the less impatient.
"Okay, as you said, for the next day, you and I will rest and recuperate in order to achieve the best results and complete the improvement of the secret realm." Ye Tian followed the good advice, nodded and agreed to Xiao Snake's suggestion, and then put his mind to it. Take it back, temporarily put away the wind chime.
Building a feng shui platform has saved a lot of time, and it doesn't affect the rest of the day for self-cultivation. It's just that after Ye Tian withdrew his consciousness, he realized that the dead bark mask on his body was buzzing all the time, as if someone was calling him.
It's just that in the past few days, Ye Tian's whole mind was immersed in changing the layout of the secret feng shui, and he had no time to take care of other things, so he ignored the reminder of the dead bark mask.
According to the person who presented this withered bark mask before, generally withered bark masks will never voluntarily ring, and only withered bark pavilion will call in person, or if there is a major task or matter that needs to be discussed, each withered bark mask will be contacted the master.
Ye Tian thought for a while, anyway, he still has a day to rest, why not see what this Deadwood Pavilion is going to do, and suddenly look for him.
Putting on the dead bark mask again, Ye Tian felt a huge sense of consciousness covering him in an instant.
"Twenty, you finally responded." A completely unfamiliar voice came through the consciousness inside the dead bark mask.
"Who are you?" Ye Tian frowned and asked coldly.
"I'm number nine, the person in charge of contacting you." The other party was exactly the same as the person who gave Ye Tianku the bark mask at first, only willing to report his code name. It's just this person's code name, but it sounds much earlier than that number ten.
"Dare to ask you, what are you looking for?" Ye Tian had already vaguely guessed in his heart why the other party was looking for him. Could it be that the Deadwood Pavilion was looking for him because of the death of Jiang Shengchao from the Golden Knife Gate of the Third Ring? As a result, it is very bad.
When Ye Tian dealt with Jiang Shengchao's body, he disguised it as being injured by the unique thunder spell of the Yang family in Xilei Mountain. The purpose was to deceive people's eyes and ears, so that after the discovery of Jiang Shengchao's body, the Sanhuan Golden Knife Gate would not be immediately implicated in the Tianjian Gate. Instead, he diverted his attention to the Yang family in Xilei Mountain, and muddied the water again, so as to buy himself more time.
But Ye Tian also ignored the most important point, that is the Withered Wood Pavilion! After all, his deal with Jiang Shengchao could be hidden from everyone, but it is unlikely to be hidden from Withered Wood Pavilion! The death of Jiang Shengchao was just after they agreed on the deal. Others didn't know whether the person who traded with Jiang Shengchao was from the Yang family, but Deadwood Pavilion would definitely know.
So, this person code-named Jiu came to him to ask for an explanation for Jiang Shengchao's death?
Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't help squinting his eyes. If the other party is held accountable, he will directly disconnect the consciousness connected to the dead bark mask. All problems will be dealt with after repairing the secret realm!
When he is about to reach the critical period of repairing the secret realm, Ye Tian will never tolerate any accidents. He has even made plans. If this happens, he will definitely leave the Tianjianmen sect immediately and find another secluded and secluded place. place, rebuild the secret realm.
Only one month later, when the restoration of the secret realm was completed, he no longer needed to be distracted by this matter, and then turned back to see how to deal with the matter of the Withered Wood Pavilion. As for the order related to the mysterious man on the top of the mountain, Ye Tian couldn't care less now.
"The Deadwood Pavilion has received definite news, confirming that No. 18 of the Deadwood Pavilion has passed away, so the position of No. 18 has been vacated. At present, the pavilion master has sent a special person to take the eighteenth The withered bark mask of No. 18 was taken back, and the next thing is that the pavilion master intends to solicit opinions from all of you to see if there is any recommended candidate to replace No. 18." The person who claimed to be No. 9 slowly explained his intention, with a tone Without the slightest murderous intent, it was as if he was talking about a trivial matter that had nothing to do with him.
"That's all?" Ye Tian asked back, and the other party's answer was completely different from what Ye Tian thought. Could it be that he used this excuse to appease him first, and then secretly sent someone to deal with him?
As soon as this idea popped into Ye Tian's mind, he was denied it again. Murderous aura cannot deceive people, and after he has been sharpened by the sword intent in the hidden sword building of Tianjianmen, the murderous aura he comprehended has transformed into sword eyes, even if the opponent is not in front of him, he has to judge the tone of the opponent's speech Whether it contains murderous intent or not, Ye Tian still has this ability.
The fact that the other party clearly didn't have the slightest intention to kill was enough to show that the other party didn't care about Jiang Shengchao's death at all.
"That's all. You don't need to think too much. Although I don't have many core members in the Deadwood Pavilion, the rules in the cabinet are for all the members of the Deadwood Pavilion, even the owner of the pavilion. According to the court rules, if you meet and trade with people in private, you will die as soon as you die, so what’s the pity?" The No. 9 smiled lightly, as if he could see through Ye Tian's mind, and with some cryptic hints, he had already explained what Ye Tian was worried about. Clearly.
Hearing this, Ye Tian didn't let go of his guard. He still doesn't know what kind of organization this Withered Tree Pavilion is, but according to his words, anyone who can wear the Withered Tree Bark Mask and have their own serial number is considered its core member. Now that the core members are accidentally killed, the Withered Wood Pavilion really only said "disregard the rules, die or die", is this simple eight words enough?
"I don't have anyone to recommend for the position of No. 18. Dare I ask you, can I abstain?" Ye Tian didn't know the other party's intention for the time being, so he could only follow the other party's lead to test it out.
If the other party stops here and doesn't look for another topic, then Jiang Shengchao's death is naturally not important to Withered Wood Pavilion, and it also confirms what he said earlier, if this person is still relentless, then Ye Tian will not I think this matter can really be done like this.
"Of course. Then I can go back and return to my life, and fellow daoists can also leave on their own." No. 9 nodded, but he really didn't say another irrelevant word.
A strange look flashed in Ye Tian's eyes, and he suddenly remembered something, but he took the initiative to stop No. 9 who was about to leave.
"Fellow Daoist, please stay!"
"Is there something else on the 20th?" The No. 9 consciousness hadn't left yet, and when he heard Ye Tian calling him, he immediately asked him.
"Although I have been in the Withered Wood Pavilion for a long time, I still don't understand many things in the Withered Wood Pavilion, but when I put on this mask, the person who gave me the mask, that is, No. 10, told me that we don't know each other. The identity of the other party is also called by the number on this mask, and you must not let others know your identity." Ye Tian paused, and then slowly spoke.
"That's right. Since the establishment of the Withered Wood Pavilion, it has been passed down from the owner of the pavilion to such rules." No. 9 replied affirmatively, and did not understand what Ye Tian wanted to ask.
"Then why does Your Excellency know my identity?" Ye Tian finally asked what he thought in his heart. At least in his opinion, only No. 10 knows his identity, and the owner of the Withered Wood Pavilion may also know it. According to the rules of the court, then his identity should not be known by anyone other than these two people, so in this case, this No. 9 should not know that he is. He can't be sure whether the other party really doesn't know, so he can only cheat like this.
"Hehe, hahahaha..." Ye Tian's words immediately caused No. 9 to burst into laughter.
"Young people are becoming more and more interesting nowadays. Didn't I tell you all that under the rules of the Withered Wood Pavilion, no one will know your true identity except the pavilion master and the person who is responsible for sending you the mask. Only if you expose yourself, then you can’t blame others, I’m just here to inform you for the first time, and through this dead bark mask, how can I know your identity?” After laughing, No. 9 explained .
It's just that Ye Tian didn't agree with this explanation.
"If the Deadwood Pavilion adopts this kind of recommendation system to accept core members, wouldn't everyone know who will be selected in the end?" Ye Tian said again, and after a short pause, he added: "I still I would like to ask the Pavilion Master, if this is the case, what is the use of this rule."
"The Withered Tree Pavilion has a total of 181 withered bark masks, that is to say, there will be a total of 181 core members scattered throughout the third heaven. Of course, Xu Hu betrayed the Withered Tree Pavilion and destroyed On the one hand, there are only 180 people left. But for every one of the core members of the Deadwood Pavilion missing, all the other core members will recommend one person. After the decision is made, the recommender is responsible for delivering the mask. You said, how would the rest of the core members know your identity? Could it be that the person in charge of delivering the mask didn’t explain this clearly to you? You can tell me who gave you the mask, maybe in this way, I can really find out who you are." The number nine said at the end, already a little impatient.
"So that's the case, thank you fellow daoist for letting me know. If there is nothing wrong, I will leave on my own and go to retreat to practice." Ye Tian narrowed his eyes and said immediately.
After talking with him, he has already found out the news he wants to know.
There used to be a total of 181 withered bark masks in the Withered Tree Pavilion, but now there are only 80 withered bark masks left, corresponding to 81 core members. That is to say, as long as one withered bark mask is destroyed, the core members of the Withered Wood Pavilion will inevitably be reduced by one person!
In this way, it is not difficult to really find out the real body of the Withered Wood Pavilion hidden in the dark underground, as long as more than half of the 181 core members are found, it is enough to uproot it .
"Then I won't disturb Fellow Daoists to retreat, and leave first."
No. 9 didn't care. After saying goodbye, he hid his consciousness in a fluke and waited for Ye Tian to leave first. Who knows, Ye Tian noticed that his consciousness hadn't left, and he hadn't left either. The two people's spiritual consciousness, for a while, was in the spiritual consciousness network of the dead bark mask, paying attention to each other, but they were extremely quiet.
After about half a quarter of an hour passed, Number Nine first felt bored and laughed out loud.
"Well, on the twentieth, there are people in this world who are more boring than me. When I contacted other people before, no one was as boring as me and did the same thing. Forget it, I will send you a free message , you are wearing a No. 20 mask, but there are still some leftover tails, which have not been dealt with."
"What tail is left?" Ye Tian was very puzzled, and immediately asked.
"The news that came down here can't be free..." No. 9 smiled lightly, wheezing his appetite, and waited for Ye Tian to speak. . . . . . . .
