Chapter 32 Why is there one missing? The two-headed black bird flies very fast. It only takes half a day for it to fly from Jinqiu City to Tianbei Temple.
If nothing unexpected happens, the group of Buddhist cultivators from Tianbei Temple will arrive at Golden Qiu City tonight.
But Yang Rongrong is not the kind of person who puts all her hopes on others.
It is better to rely on the sky than on yourself.
Just in case, she had to be prepared.
Yang Rongrong touched her waist and saw that the Qiankun bag was gone. It must have been searched by Qingli.
Without the tool, she could only be cruel and bite her fingertip again. The wound that had not healed before became even bigger, and blood beads came out one by one.
She knelt on the ground, traced her fingertips across the ground, and used blood instead of ink to draw runes.
When the little yellow chicken flew back, she had already drawn a small magic circle on the ground.
The little yellow chicken said to her through the cell door: "The letter has been sent out."
Yang Rongrong replied "Hello".
The little yellow chicken heard that her voice was weak and said hurriedly.
"What's wrong with you? Have you been tortured? Don't you cherish your life the most? Just do whatever those people tell you to do. Don't be stubborn. We can keep the green hills without worrying about having firewood. There will be plenty of opportunities to come back with revenge in the future!”
Due to excessive blood loss, Yang Rongrong's face was pale and her head felt dizzy.
She sat on the ground to rest: "Why have you become so nagging? I remember that you used to be very cold and precious."
The little yellow chicken became angry: "I am caring about you!"
Yang Rongrong laughed twice.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine."
Little Yellow Chicken: "Then why are you talking like you are dying?"
"What's immortal? It's so unlucky!" Yang Rongrong educated it casually, and then explained.
"I just drew a retrospective formation with blood."
The little yellow chicken was puzzled: "Why did you draw this formation?"
The retrospection formation can temporarily turn back time. This is a high-level formation that can only be used by monks above the divine transformation stage. Yang Rongrong had practiced this formation before when she was still in the divine transformation stage.
After so many years, her cultivation has retreated to the foundation-building stage, but she still remembers the knowledge she learned before.
She looked at the precise magic circle in front of her and said slowly.
"I want to go back 120 years."
120 years ago, she was still the all-powerful monk in the transformation stage.
She could break this prison with just a move of her fingers.
The little yellow chicken said worriedly: "But you only have the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage now, can you use high-level formations such as the Retrospective Formation? Will it be backlashed?"
Once it suffers backlash, it will either die or be disabled.
Yang Rongrong didn't know what the outcome would be. She moved her arms, and the shackles made a crisp sound.
"You have to give it a try. Whether you die or live depends on whether my life is strong enough."
……
There is a forbidden area in the backyard of the city lord's mansion, and no one is allowed to enter except the city lord himself.
Even the city lord's confidant maid Qingli is no exception.
She watched the city lord enter the secret passage, while she was left waiting outside the secret passage.
The light in the secret passage is dim, and Qian Tongshen is very familiar with this place, and he can move forward without any lighting tools.
At this time, his body was very weak and he would cough lightly from time to time.
But his pace showed no signs of slowing down.
Although Qian Tongshen is a Yuanying monk, he actually has very poor foundation. The reason why he can cultivate to Yuanying is because he spent a lot of money to purchase various good elixirs and magical medicines to fill up his cultivation level.
But that's all there is to it.
No matter how much he took pills after that, his cultivation would not be able to move forward one step further.
And his body also accumulated a large amount of erysipelas due to eating too many elixirs.
The lifespan of an ordinary Nascent Soul monk is nine hundred years, but due to the destruction of erysipelas, his physique has become very poor, and he can only live to be five hundred years old at most.
Ten years ago, he was already five hundred years life is over, but he doesn't want to die.
He paid a high price to find a sinister way to rob other people's lives in order to extend his own life.
A human life can be extended by one year.
With so many people in Jinqiu City, one death a year would not attract the attention of outsiders.
But for him, this method is to drink poison to quench his thirst, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
Until three months ago, an expert suddenly appeared in Jinqiu City.
The master gave him a secret recipe.
As long as you can gather 99 children between the ages of three and five with Yin zodiac signs, and put them into the chaotic blood evil formation, you can refine the immortality pill.
If he takes the elixir again, he will live forever.
So Qian Tongshen secretly sent people to steal children everywhere. Today, he caught the last child and finally collected 99.
He will be able to refine the elixir of longevity in no time!
Thinking of this, Qian Tongshen's eyes brightened and his pace quickened a lot.
At the end of the secret passage is a door.
He opened the door and saw a huge altar. There were many cages around the altar, and there was a child in each cage.
They were all drugged and fell into a coma.
Qian Tongshen glanced over, but unexpectedly found that a cage was empty.
He couldn't help but be taken aback.
There are a total of 99 cages here, and it stands to reason that there should be people in each cage.
How come there is one missing? The master said that there must be 99 children. If one is missing, the elixir cannot be refined.
Qian Tongshen's face suddenly darkened.
He turned and left the forbidden area.
Qingli has been waiting at the entrance of the secret passage.
She knew that the city lord was going to refine the elixir today, and thought it would take a long time to come out, but she didn't expect that he would come out again just after he went in.
Qingli was very surprised: "Lord City Lord, why did you come out so quickly?"
Qian Tongshen was in a very bad mood, with a gloomy expression: "There is a child missing."
Qingli was surprised: "No way? The slave has already ordered the secret guards to send the person over immediately after catching the last child. It stands to reason that the person has been sent over. Could it be that there was an accident on the way? "
"Go and check! I must see the last child before dark today!"
"Yes!"
Qingli left in a hurry.
She summoned all the secret guards in the city lord's mansion and took a careful inventory. She found that the two secret guards sent to capture the last child were missing.
Qingli immediately ordered all the secret guards to be sent out to conduct a blanket search. As a result, the secret guards saw a beautiful child in red clothes just after they left the city lord's mansion.
Isn't that the last child they are looking for? ! I didn't expect it to come without effort.
The secret guards were pleasantly surprised and quickly rushed forward to surround him.
Rokuro was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
This is the street. The secret guards were afraid that he would attract the attention of passers-by by shouting and yelling, so they coaxed in a low voice: "Our Lord, the City Lord, likes children the most. If you follow us into the City Lord's Mansion, the Lord, the City Lord will give you a lot of candies." Eat."
Rokuro and his mother got separated.
It really wanted to find its mother, so it followed its feeling and came all the way here.
Intuition told it that the mother was in the city lord's palace in front of it.
Hearing that the secret guards wanted to take it into the city lord's mansion, where it could also get delicious food, it immediately nodded: "Then let's go."
The secret guards didn't expect him to be so easy to deceive and couldn't help but laugh.
"What a good and obedient boy. The Lord of the City will not treat you badly."
