Chapter 289 Lu Zhan is missing? It's okay. Miss Chu is missing?
Chapter 289 Lu Zhan is missing? It's okay. Miss Chu is missing? Something big happened!
The sky was like ink, with dots of red light replacing the stars and the bright moon, making the dark night sky even more eerie.
Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang looked at each other, walked to the window tacitly, and looked outside.
There were shadows in the jungle in the distance. Six or seven figures were rushing out of the jungle. Most of them were cultivators in the Demortal Realm and the early Mysterious Realm. The bloody smell came from them.
"Whoosh whoosh-"
Behind them, the dark jungle shook violently, as if some huge monster was following closely and trying to swallow them up.
"There is a monster." Chu Wantang took out Taiyuan, and there was a hint of coldness on his fair face.
Lu Zhan held her hand and whispered, "Don't act rashly."
“Yeah.” Chu Wantang understood what Lu Zhan meant. Outsiders always had to be low-key. But she looked at the hands that were still pressing on her and said coldly, “I won’t move, but can you take your hands away…”
"It's just a habit. Sorry, sorry." Lu Zhan withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Chu Wantang curled her lips but did not refute him, just looked outside.
“Such a beautiful girl, why is she still wearing men’s clothes…” The moment the fat boy saw Lu Zhan, his eyes lit up.
Lu Zhan smiled and said, "He is seriously injured. If he is delayed until dawn, he will probably suffer internal injuries. I happen to be a night doctor. Senior, why don't you let me try?"
This person is so stupid that he can kill people at critical moments.
The old woman was a little annoyed. There was an unwritten rule in the village clinic that people should not be disturbed in the middle of the night. Although she could heal her grandson, she was not as proficient in medicine as the night doctor. Even if she complained, he was her grandson after all, and she could not bear to see him in pain.
For example, genetic defects.
Unexpectedly, the fat boy was so impressed by the beauty of the wolf demon that he held on to her and refused to let go, even kissing her twice, which completely angered the wolf demon.
The wolf demon was hugged and kissed several times by the fat man, and felt that his dignity was challenged, so he kept chasing after him.
The old woman looked at Lu Zhan with an apologetic look on her face and sighed, "My grandson has been a little... a little slow since he was born. I still can't tell the gender of a boy or a girl. There are two night doctors in the village, but it's a pity that they have been treating him for many years but to no avail."
Lu Zhan thought to himself that this was a genetic defect. Could Doctor Ye possibly reprogram your genes?
Having problems with his brain doesn’t affect his cultivation, which means he’s not a complete fool, he just has some minor flaws.
The little fat boy had dark skin and several scratches on his face. His body was in a mess. His entire right arm was almost torn off and there were some dents on his chest. If he was not a cultivator, he would have died long ago.
The little fat boy said with a smile: "It's okay, grandma. I almost brought you a granddaughter-in-law, but unfortunately she was too fierce and beat me up like this. It's such a pity."
After they left, the old woman sighed and said, "When will you grow up? Can you stop doing stupid things like this?"
The young men running in front all breathed a sigh of relief and supported each other as they walked towards the village.
"What happened? Why are they so badly injured? In the past, those monsters would not approach the village, so why did they go crazy this time?"
"Shut up, you are so old, can't you tell the difference between men and women?!" The old woman, who had just calmed down, became angry again. She slapped the fat boy on the arm, completely breaking his arm.
"How about letting me try?" A clear voice came.
The grave-keeping village is trapped here, and as it reproduces generation after generation, their bloodlines have long been inbred, so it is normal that their descendants are not very smart.
Lu Zhan was not angry. Instead, he looked at the fat boy with eyes full of compassion.
The little fat boy held his arm and screamed: "I didn't see it clearly!"
As the noise in the jungle grew louder, the window next to them suddenly opened, and the old woman they had seen during the day stood in front of the window, her white hair flying like a red ribbon. She suddenly opened her mouth and shouted, "Get out!"
The little fat boy cried out in pain: "Grandma, I'm your grandson, it hurts!"
The old woman frowned, hurriedly took out some medicine powder and sprinkled it on the little fat boy's arm, looking a little worried.
There is an unwritten rule in the grave-guarding village that wolves are generally not to be provoked, because wolves are social animals and can easily provoke revenge, so there is no need to do so.
Lu Zhan doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but there is no harm in meddling in some matters.
This secret realm is far more grand than the secret realm of Zhenyuan Immortal. Not only are there grave keepers, but it also gave birth to a perfect food chain.
The roaring sound rolled up waves of sound, like thunder in spring. The forest, which had been shaking violently just now, suddenly became calm, and the huge monster that was chasing after it was driven away by the old woman.
"How dare you say that? If you hadn't held on to the wolf demon and refused to let go, we wouldn't have been hurt like this." The young man from the same village next to him couldn't help but mutter, his face full of complaints.
Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang looked at each other and neither moved. However, they did not continue to rest either. Instead, they used their spiritual sense to pay attention to the movements outside.
The old woman raised her head and saw Lu Zhan walking out of the guest room.
They are all descendants of the village. From time to time, they would go to the mountains for hunting experience. This time, they encountered a pheasant spirit as soon as they entered the mountains. After they designed a plan to capture the pheasant spirit, they were originally planning to return home, but they did not expect to encounter a wolf's den halfway.
Lu Zhan heard clearly what the young people had just said about the fat boy. This fat boy mistook the male wolf demon for a female and even hugged and kissed it, which showed that there was something wrong with his brain.
"..."
Soon, the young cultivators arrived at the gate of the courtyard.
Now that he saw the fat boy admit his mistake, Lu Zhan was even more certain of this idea.
Seeing the old woman lose her temper, the other young men did not dare to stay for long and went home in shame. At the same time, they made up their minds never to go hunting with the fat man again.
They had no choice but to face the wolf demon head-on and engage in a fight with it. Halfway through the fight, they discovered that the wolf demon was actually a male wolf, but it had become a somewhat feminine looking one.
If it wasn't her own grandson, the old woman would have wanted to slap him to death.
The little fat boy scratched his head with a smile, and screamed in pain because of the broken arm.
"You idiot, why are you sick again?" The old woman's face turned cold, she grabbed her grandson's broken arm and said angrily: "The clinic is closed now, you just have to bear it yourself!"
The old woman opened the door and let the young men in. All of them were injured to varying degrees, and the most seriously injured was a little fat man.
"I see..." Lu Zhan smiled tolerantly: "It's okay, do you want to receive this arm?"
"Thank you for your help." The old woman glared at her grandson fiercely.
Lu Zhan pulled out a medicine box and took out a dozen silver needles. The ends of the silver needles were shiny and glistening. They were made of special materials. He condensed the true Qi into silk threads and penetrated the silver needles. The silver needles seemed to have their own consciousness and began to sew up the broken shoulder.
"Ahhh!" Because there was no anesthesia, the little fat boy cried out in pain.
Lu Zhan soothed him, "The silver needle is not big, just bear with it."
After helping the little fat boy sew up his shoulder neatly, Lu Zhan took out his own jade harp and elegantly played a healing song of his own creation: Pingsha Luoyan.
After the song was over, the situation became a little complicated.
The good news is that the fat boy’s shoulder has recovered 50% and he only needs to rest for a while.
The bad news is that the little fat boy insisted on listening to the song Pingsha Luoyan, and now he foamed at the mouth and fainted.
"Is he okay?" The old woman looked at Lu Zhan with a complicated expression.
Lu Zhan shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that the piano music is too noisy, he's not used to it, so he fainted temporarily."
"Is this the sound of the zither? This is the first time I've heard it." The old woman shook her head, "I once heard from my elders that some people use music to achieve enlightenment. I thought it would be intoxicating, and they would reach the pinnacle in the ultimate music. I didn't expect that the music was far from being as beautiful as I imagined, and it was so unpleasant to listen to."
"Yes, that's right." Lu Zhan kept smiling: "Old senior, are there many monsters in this secret realm?"
The old woman kicked her grandson aside and said in a more friendly manner: "When the ancient sages refined this land into a secret realm, they did not interfere with the ecology inside. Because of the abundant spiritual power, there are naturally many monsters here."
"I see that you two are young and reckless, and you should try to awaken the sage. But if you want to awaken the sage, you must go through the jungle ahead. There are many high-level monsters in the deep jungle, and we rarely set foot there."
Refining a piece of land into a secret realm, and there are so many grave keepers... Lu Zhan asked curiously: "Excuse me, junior, may I ask who is the sage buried here?"
"We don't know." The old woman shook her head: "How can we know the names of the sages? Even our ancestors don't dare to call them by their names, so we don't know."
Lu Zhan: “?”
What the hell, you've been guarding here for thousands of years, and you don't even know who you're guarding?
"Perhaps there may be holy relics left by sages deep in the jungle, but they are hard to come by, at least we have never seen them. If we can find these holy relics, the chances of awakening the sages may be greater." said the old woman.
"I saw it!" The little fat man who had just fainted woke up. He wiped the foam from his mouth and whispered, "When we went deep into the jungle this time, I saw a large stone tablet in a remote canyon! There were words written on it, but the words were so ugly that I couldn't tell what they were!"
As soon as these words came out, the old woman was instantly excited. She picked up her grandson from the ground and said, "What did you say? Did you see the holy relics of the ancient sages?"
"That should be it... I haven't seen that stone tablet before. It was suddenly foggy today, and I saw it when the fog cleared." The little fat boy patted his grandmother's hand and frowned, "Grandma, why are you so excited? Even if it is a holy relic, it is not a treasure. It is just a broken tablet."
The old woman yelled, "You know nothing, did you see it all?"
"No, I was the only one who saw it." The little fat man spread his hands and said, "I told them, but they didn't believe me. They called me a fool and refused to go with me to see it."
The old woman suddenly let go of her grandson. She stared at the night sky for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter. "The holy relics have appeared. Perhaps they will record how to awaken the spirits of the ancient sages... Could it be that we can really get out?"
Lu Zhan blinked and didn't interrupt from beginning to end.
Is this little fat guy really just a fool with good fortune?
"My grandson is really a fool with good fortune." The old woman calmed down, looked at Lu Zhan, and said slowly: "You just arrived and the holy relics appeared. Perhaps you are also a part of the opportunity... Wait until tomorrow, please come with me to see the stone tablet."
"Okay." Lu Zhan agreed immediately.
Let’s not talk about why the stone tablet suddenly appeared. At least judging from the old woman’s reaction, the stone tablet had never appeared before.
Regardless of whether it is an opportunity or not, you should always go and take a look.
In addition, Lu Zhan also wanted to know who was buried in this huge tomb.
The 'enemy' encountered earlier in Huoyun Mountain might not have come for the dragon fruit.
Their real purpose might be to get this secret tomb, but they just happened to meet him and attacked him.
Countless questions gathered in Lu Zhan's heart, but he couldn't be anxious.
They didn’t know what was happening in the outside world, or whether anyone had noticed they were missing.
-
Bian Jing, the Demon Suppression Office.
The night in the secret realm is not really night, as the outside world is actually sunny at this time.
Lu Zhan and Chu Wantang went to Huoyun Mountain without causing any commotion, as it was common for cultivators to gain experience.
Jiang Ningshuang and Longma had not yet returned to Bianjing, so the Demon Suppression Bureau was peaceful.
But outside the Demon Suppression Bureau, some people felt something was wrong.
Yuan Kong felt that something had happened to Lu Zhan.
Yesterday at noon, Yuan Kong calmed down his good mood and temporarily forgot about being insulted by Yongchang Hou. He went to pay a visit to Lu Zhan and prepared to talk to him about cultivation.
He has recently hit a bottleneck in his practice and hopes to receive guidance from a genius.
As a result, when he arrived at Lu Zhan's house, he did not see Lu Zhan, but saw the fox spirit raised by Lu Zhan.
Yuan Kong learned from the fox spirit that Lu Zhan had gone out to get the dragon fruit and had not returned.
It is common for cultivators to go through trials and tribulations, and Yuan Kong did not think much about it. However, the bottleneck made him unable to sleep or eat, and he did not know when Lu Zhan would return, so he simply used the Miaoyin Gourd to contact Lu Zhan, hoping to get an answer from Lu Zhan.
Unexpectedly, his Miaoyin Gourd was rejected by Lu Zhan.
To put it simply, Miaoyin Gourd couldn't find Lu Zhan's location and the message failed.
According to common sense, as long as Lu Zhan's Qi is possessed, the Miaoyin Gourd can be sent.
Unless Lu Zhan entered a secret realm and was isolated from the world.
But Lu Zhan was going to pick dragon fruit, how could he suddenly enter the secret realm? I have never heard of a secret realm in Huoyun Mountain.
Yuan Kong has always had a sharp intuition. He felt that something was wrong and that Lu Zhan was afraid that he had encountered some danger.
So Yuan Kong rushed to the Demon Suppression Bureau to report, but no one was worried about the disappearance of the young director.
Who doesn't know that their young director is extremely powerful? Director Lu is missing, it's okay.
It was not until they heard that Chu Wantang was going with Lu Zhan that the demon-suppressing masters realized the seriousness of the matter.
Miss Chu is missing? This is terrible!
Chen Beifang quickly pulled Yuan Kong into the Demon Suppression Bureau and wanted to report the matter to the Chief.
"Why don't you go and report? Why do you have to drag me along..." Yuan Kong trembled with fear.
The elders of their Zen Sect had all been beaten by the Grand Master. How could he be worthy enough to meet the Grand Master?
I really don’t dare.
Chen Beifang said seriously: "Master, you were the one who noticed this, so of course I have to take you with me. How dare I take credit for it?"
Yuan Kong waved his hand: "What merit or no merit, I am not greedy for these..."
"I know that the master comes from the Zen sect and does not covet false fame, but whether you are greedy or not is your business. Whether the Demon Suppression Bureau gives it to you or not is our business." Chen Beifang said seriously.
"Well, I'm just guessing, maybe I'm wrong..." Yuan Kong turned and left. He really didn't want to enter Qingyang Tower.
Chen Beifang quickly grabbed him and said, "Master, how can you be guessing? Your analysis is correct. Something must have happened to the director and Miss Chu. Let's go!"
Yuan Kong was still reluctant, and while struggling he raised his hand and accidentally pulled off Chen Beifang's wig.
"..." Chen Beifang suddenly felt a chill on his forehead, and saw his hair being pulled off. He looked at the wig in Yuan Kong's hand with a subtle expression.
“Amitabha…” Yuan Kong silently put the wig back on Chen Beifang’s head and made a heroic gesture: “Okay… Let’s go see the Grand Master!”
