Chapter 1330 Lin Fan

"Is there another human monk?"

Liang Yan's expression changed slightly. At this time, the human monk who appeared here was almost certainly one of the top ten geniuses invited by the ghost-hand scholar!

"Does he think the 'Demon Locking Tower' can be repaired?"

"At least that's what Bouchard said." Hongwu replied.

"."

Liang Yan was silent, glanced at the Kunzha clan members around him, and secretly analyzed the situation in front of him.

Obviously, this group of aliens are by no means good people. The reason why they have not launched an attack on him now is entirely due to the control of their clan leader. If he directly rejects his request, then this group of aliens may not be so peaceful anymore.

As for the Demon Locking Tower, Jiuhanwu.

If what Bouchard said is true, then their request is consistent with their own goal. Only by repairing the Demon Locking Tower and re-suppressing the Nine Cold Fog can they safely cross the Wuzhou, otherwise they will be unable to move even an inch.

After pondering for a moment, Liang Yan already made a decision in his heart.

"Tell the old clan leader for me that Liang is honored to be able to help. I only hope that after repairing the Demon Locking Tower, I can safely pass through Wuzhou."

"clear."

Hongwu nodded and turned to Bouchard to translate.

"Ugua, Ugua!"

After receiving Liang Yan's affirmative reply, the old patriarch of the Kuntooth Clan seemed a little overjoyed. He even imitated the etiquette of the human race and bowed to him.

Immediately afterwards, countless Kunji clan members separated a road and made way for him to make way for a big vacancy.

Liang Yan knew that they were pointing the direction for him, so he walked forward along this road. At the same time, the Kunji tribe members around him also moved at the same time, still surrounding him, and slowly moved forward in the direction of the road. .

Obviously, although the leader of the Kunji clan was grateful to Liang Yan, he did not completely trust him. The clan members surrounding Liang Yan were there to prevent him from escaping.

In this way, Liang Yan and Hongwu, surrounded by people from the Kunzha tribe, walked for about half an hour until a snowy city appeared in the distance.

To say it is a "city" is actually a bit exaggerated, because the city is mostly composed of low snow houses with roofs less than Liang Yan's waist, and some buildings similar to ice crystal tents are also extremely short.

There are no city walls or restrictions on the periphery, only a long light blue river surrounding it. It is strange to say that the ice and snow around it do not melt, but the long river has fast currents and has not been frozen into ice.

"There is highly poisonous water in the river. It is the place where the Kunzhi people practice. Bouchard asked you not to touch it easily." Hongwu said next to Liang Yan.

Liang Yan nodded, and accompanied by the Kunji tribe, he walked across an ice and snow bridge and arrived at the place where the Kunji tribe lived and practiced.

Although the houses in this city are small, they cover an extremely large area. Countless Kunzha people are walking in the streets and alleys, more than ten times more than the group of people who went out to hunt before.

"Fortunately, I didn't rebel at that time. Otherwise, if so many Kunji tribe members came to take revenge, I wouldn't have been able to force my way in. I would have had no choice but to withdraw from Wuzhou and find another way."

Liang Yan secretly sighed in his heart, followed Bouchard and other senior officials of the Kuntooth Clan, and walked all the way to the depths of the city. Soon they came to a huge white jade square.

In the middle of the square, several white tents were erected. Judging from the size of the tents, they looked more like they were built for human monks than for the Kunji tribe.

Behind the tent, a red flame rose. Around the flame, there were hundreds of Kunzha clan members. At this time, they all imitated the human clan, sitting cross-legged on the ground, listening attentively to something.

In front of them, sat a young human man, wearing a set of coarse linen clothes, with a simple black ring on his hand. He was of average height and had an average appearance. He was talking incessantly and eloquently to the hundreds of people. The people of the Kuntooth Clan were telling something.

Surprisingly, this human man spoke the language of the Kunzha tribe, and Liang Yan couldn't understand a word of it.

At this moment, Bouchard coughed lightly, and the Kunzha clan members who were sitting around the torch and listening intoxicatedly all came to their senses, stood up each other, and bowed respectfully to the old clan leader. Dispersed slowly.

The young human race man naturally noticed the arrival of everyone. He stood up and glanced at everyone, and finally fell on Liang Yan naturally.

"Haha, I didn't expect someone with the same idea to come so soon." The man in linen clothes smiled slightly, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

The moment he saw this person, Liang Yan no longer had any doubts, because the other person's cultivation level was the same as his own, at the peak of Tongxuan!

"We are destined to meet each other. How do we call friends?" Liang Yan clasped his fists and smiled.

"I'm Lin Fan, a nobody! Dare you ask your friend's name?"

"Liang Zhidao!"

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Liang, nice to meet you!"

The two of them greeted each other politely, and in their hearts they were like Ming Jing, knowing that the other must be one of the top ten geniuses participating in this Suixu Mountain discussion, so no one dared to underestimate the other.

Under the leadership of the old patriarch of the Kunzhi Clan, Liang Yan, Hongwu, Lin Fan and others entered a huge tent one after another. The old patriarch sat in the main seat, while Liang Yan and Lin Fan sat cross-legged on the left and right.

After the pleasantries, Liang Yan went straight to the topic.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, I heard from the old clan leader that you have already inspected the Demon Locking Tower. How confident are you that you can repair it?"

"At least seven points!"

Lin Fan said very confidently: "The Demon Locking Tower here is divided into two parts, the north and the south, which echo each other. After I went to check, I found that the Demon Locking Tower itself was not too damaged, but the auras between each other The connection has been forcibly destroyed. As long as the connection between the two Demon Locking Towers can be restored, the Nine Cold Qi here can be suppressed again."

"Has it been forcibly destroyed?" Liang Yan frowned and looked at Bouchard, the leader of the Kuntooth Clan.

"Ask the old patriarch for me, how were these two Demon Locking Towers destroyed?"

"good!"

Hongwu didn't hesitate and translated Liang Yan's words.

After hearing this, Bouchard showed an angry look on his face. He actually stood up, opened his arms, and shouted something like "Ugua, Ugua".

After a while, the leader of the Kuntooth Clan calmed down a little and sat back in his seat, but his face still didn't look good.

"What's going on?" Liang Yan was a little confused and asked Hongwu beside him.

"He said that the reason why the Demon Suppression Tower was destroyed was because of the cunning humans."

Hongwu curled his lips and said: "Just a few months ago, when most of them went out to hunt, two human monks, one monk and one layman, broke into the depths of Wuzhou. There was a big battle there, and the Suo Yao was killed. The tower was destroyed. Since then, the Nine Cold Qi has erupted in large quantities, and the living environment of the Kuntooth Clan has been greatly threatened. In the end, they had to shrink their territory, and now it is difficult to even catch prey."

"Of course."

After Hongwu said this, he added: "That Bouchard finally said that he will not anger you because of those two human monks. As long as you and Lin Fan can help repair the Demon Locking Tower, he will definitely order the people to , let you pass through Wuzhou safely."

"I see."

Liang Yan figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and a look of deep thought appeared on his face.

Could it be that the one monk and one layman mentioned by Bouchard are also the geniuses who participated in the Taoist seminar on Suixu Mountain this time? I don't know what kind of grudge these two people have, but they actually started fighting on the road and destroyed the two demon-locking towers here.

After thinking for a moment, Liang Yan looked at Lin Fan across from him and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Lin has great magical powers, but it's a pity that Liang doesn't know anything about weapon refining. He doesn't know how to repair the Demon Locking Tower?"

"Simple, I will teach you how to repair the Demon Lock Tower. You just need to follow my steps to repair it. The key is the last step! The two of us must pour spiritual power into the north and south ends at the same time to replace the two lock towers. The demon tower has re-opened the link channel, and as long as the connection between them is restored, it will be able to operate normally."

When Lin Fan said this, he raised his hand and waved his sleeve, and a bamboo slip flew out from his sleeve.

Liang Yan reached out and took the bamboo slips, unfolded them and saw that they were indeed the steps to repair the Demon Locking Tower.

He is also a smart person. Although he is not proficient in weapon refining, he can understand some of other people's methods.

Although the repair method in this bamboo slip was simple, it contained hidden mysteries, which opened his eyes.

"What a trick!"

Liang Yan secretly praised it, watching until the end, it turned out that it was indeed necessary to inject spiritual power from both sides at the same time to open the link between the two demon locking towers.

"With Taoist friend's repair method, Liang is somewhat confident. Without further ado, let's divide our forces into two groups. Let's repair the Demon Locking Tower now, right?"

"Haha, fellow Daoist Liang, don't be impatient."

Lin Fan waved his hand, exchanged a few words with Bouchar next to him in the Kunzha language, and then said: "According to what the old clan leader said, the two Demon Locking Towers are now surrounded by the 'Nine Colds', and the environment is very dangerous. , If you go there rashly, your life may be in danger."

"What should we do?" Liang Yan frowned.

"It is said that the 'Nine Cold Qi' will ebb every ten days. According to the old patriarch, the next low tide should be three days later. By then, the 'Nine Cold Qi' will have weakened slightly. Although it is impossible to cross Wuzhou, at least it can Hold on until we repair the Demon Locking Tower."

After hearing this, Liang Yan remained calm on the surface, but secretly sent a message to Hongwu and asked:

"Is everything he said true?"

Liang Yan didn't understand the Kunzhi clan's dialect, but Hongwu was very proficient in it. He listened to the conversation between Lin Fan and the old clan leader word for word just now, and now he nodded without any trace, which was regarded as a response to his question.

After receiving Hongwu's affirmative reply, Liang Yan's doubts disappeared a lot, and he mused: "Since the next ebb of the 'Nine Cold Qi' is still three days away, then we don't have to rush and just wait here for three days before taking action. Bar."

"Yes, Feiyu Shiwuzhou is very dangerous. We must be as careful as possible." Lin Fan nodded with deep understanding.

Hongwu translated the conversation between the two to Bouchard, and Bouchard nodded in agreement.

The old clan leader of the Kunzhi Clan clapped his hands, and immediately some members of the clan entered the tent and stood respectfully in front of Liang Yan and Lin Fan.

Seeing this, Hongwu hurriedly said: "The old patriarch said that you are guests from afar, and he will give you the patriarch's palace to rest for a few days."

"No need, it's fine just in this tent."

Liang Yan didn't care about this, and Lin Fan also smiled slightly.

Seeing that they were in agreement, Bouchard was no longer polite. He stood up and slowly left the tent with the support of his own men.

Seeing the people from the Kuntooth Clan leaving, Lin Fan smiled slightly and looked at Liang Yan opposite.

"Fellow Daoist Liang, let's not talk secretly. Fellow Daoist, you are here this time for the Dao discussion agreement at Suixu Mountain, right?"

"good!"

Faced with such a direct inquiry, Liang Yan did not dodge, but admitted it generously.

"Liang was trapped in a bottleneck and was suffering unspeakably. He heard that Suixu Mountain had an opportunity to break through, so he came here all the way. Regarding this, fellow Taoists must be the same, right?"

"good!"

Lin Fan sighed and said: "Lin has been trapped in a bottleneck for a long time! No matter how hard he practices, he still can't get a trace of heavenly feeling."

After sighing, he thought for a while and said: "If my guess is correct, Brother Liang should also have received the letter. The ghost-hand scholar in Fengdu City. Lin has never heard of this person before. I wonder if Liang Daoyou can Have you heard anything?"

"Scholar with Ghost Hands."

Speaking of this person, Liang Yan was also confused and could only tentatively tell some of his guesses.

In the tent, the two of them listed some of the characters they had heard of and could think of, but in the end they found that no one matched their number.

"well!"

Lin Fan let out a long sigh and said: "As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. We know that this trip is very dangerous and there are too many unknown risks, but we still want to wade into this muddy water. All we can say is this 'Ghost-Handed Scholar'" 'It's our lifeline. After all, this 'jealousy' he mentioned may really be our crux."

"Yes, who doesn't want to improve his cultivation to a higher level? The despair of not being able to break through the bottleneck is really unbearable." Liang Yan nodded in agreement.

"Brother Liang!"

Lin Fan suddenly stood up from his seat, raised his hands to him and said, "There is more than one road leading to Suixu Mountain. It is fate that the two of us can meet here! This trip to Suixu Mountain is unpredictable. , the other eight geniuses are even more difficult to distinguish between friends and foes, so why not the two of us form an alliance in advance, so that no matter what sudden danger we encounter, we can advance and retreat together. What do you think, fellow Taoist?"

Lin Fan suddenly proposed an alliance. Although Liang Yan was a little surprised, he was not surprised.

He looked at the other party again, stood up as well, and said with a laugh: "Fellow Daoist Lin is right. Whether the top ten geniuses are friends or foes is difficult to predict right now. It is better for us to form an alliance secretly than to take risks alone." Much more.”

"Haha, heroes think alike!"

Lin Fan was overjoyed, stepped forward, stretched out his right hand, and wanted to high-five Liang Yan and swear an oath of alliance.

Liang Yan's eyes twitched slightly, but on the surface he remained calm. He also stretched out his right hand and high-fived Lin Fan three times in mid-air.
