Ximen Xiang's delicate body moved, he stood up from the ground, took out a handful of silver needles from the pouch at his waist, and shot out all of them.

During the last hunting ground trial, Ximen Xiang saw Gu Xuan using hidden weapons, so he practiced several hidden weapon techniques diligently.

Each silver needle flashed with cold light and flew in a straight line at a very fast speed.

Ximenjie snorted softly, pulled out his sword, shook his arm, and the sword spun rapidly in his palm.

There was a small tinkling sound, and the silver needles were bounced away one after another.

His method of resisting hidden weapons is much sharper than Zheng Tai's.

Ximen Xiang flipped over again and again, but instead of landing on the table like Gu Xuan did, he secretly landed on the branches of the big tree.

This move puts Ximenjie at a distance, giving him more room to react if the other party takes the opportunity to attack.

After the hunting ground trial, Ximen Xiang's experience greatly increased. Ximen Xiang's father returned to the village once and imparted many combat experiences.

"How unworthy is it to start a war among Taoists and seedlings? Why don't you stop? The journey is long, so don't delay the business."

Ximen Jie was about to jump onto the tree crown and drive Ximen Xiang off the high platform, but he had to stop when he heard Li Xing's voice.

Ximen Xiang's eyes turned and he saw Li Xing walking slowly. He quickly jumped to the ground and sheathed his sword.

Ximen Fei and Zheng Tai spread out their bodies one after another and climbed onto the high platform.

Li Xing walked closer, looked at Ximenjie, and asked calmly: "Now that the matter is over, will you continue to lead the team?"

"My young master has other important matters today, so I will take my leave."

Ximenjie was so disgraced that he had no intention of leading the team. He just found an excuse and left in despair.

"There is no need to lead the team in this trial. Ximen Shuzhuang has experienced it. If you encounter any problems, you can discuss it with him."

After Li Xing finished explaining, he launched a cyan spirit boat and floated it in the air.

"I'll leave immediately and we'll discuss the relevant trial matters on the way."

Gu Xuan was the first to get on the spirit boat and sit cross-legged at the back of the boat, just like last time.

Su Fei was the second one to jump up and actually sat cross-legged next to Gu Xuan, her expression as usual, nothing unusual.

A faint fragrance penetrated into his nostrils, and Gu Xuan's heart swayed slightly, but that was all, he had no wild thoughts.

The other Dao Miao looked surprised, but did not say anything and jumped onto the spirit boat one after another.

With Li Xing's thought, the green spirit boat slowly lifted into the sky and flew out quickly.

"This trial mission is provided by the direct lineage. There is a group of bandits hiding in the old forest of Lingshan Mountain. They usually raid homes and houses, and recently kidnapped girls. Zai

It is only natural that we treat them, and there is no need to worry about anything.”

Li Xing briefly explained the trial tasks and said nothing again.

…

Lingshan is at the junction of Luzhou and Luzhou, on the official road leading to Lingshan, there is an unnamed inn.

A green spirit boat flew from a distance and hovered at low altitude. Six Taoist seedlings jumped onto the official road one after another.

Gu Xuan looked around and heard Su Fei's message: "Please don't misunderstand Master Shu. The young lady has no other intentions. Find an appropriate time and talk to Master Shu again."

Sitting side by side with Su Fei all the way, there was not a single word exchanged between them. Both of them closed their eyes to meditate.

Gu Xuan thought about Su Fei's intention and thought that she wanted to use him to get rid of Ximenjie's entanglement.

Su Fei's voice transmission seemed to know Gu Xuan's thoughts.

The method of sound transmission in the true power realm is to mobilize the true energy of the sound transmission method, run it along the Ren channel to the throat, and speak in the direction of the other party's ear.

Gu Xuan quickly sent a message: "I'm very happy to talk to Miss Su."

Li Xing put away the spirit boat, took six Taoist seedlings, and walked towards the inn.

The thin snow on the official road has not yet melted, and there are many footprints and hoof prints, as well as ruts extending into the distance.

There are two floors in the Wuming Inn. A waiter nodded and bowed and took Li Xing and others to the second floor.

In the dead of winter, meal time had passed and the inn was quite deserted. There were only six guests on the second floor, sitting at two tables.

Except for one middle-aged man who was wearing a plain robe, the five strong men were all dressed in smart attire and had knives on their backs.

The middle-aged man is named Ximen Xun. He is tall and burly. He has cultivated in the late stage of the True Strength Realm. He is the head of the Yamen of Guzhou Prefecture.

The five strong men are all detectives, not descendants of the Ximen family, and all have cultivation in the early stages of the True Strength Realm.

Li Xing ordered the waiter to put the two square tables together, and ordered a few side dishes and several jars of soju.

When Ximen Xun came over, Li Xing introduced his identity.

After some greetings and greetings, Ximen Xun went straight to the point: "The identities of that group of bandits have been found out. They were once the nursing home of Kang Mansion in Fengze City."

Ximen Xiang's expression changed: "Fengze City Kang family?"

"Exactly." Ximen Xun introduced briefly, "The Kang family is a medical family with countless people alive. An Ran Powder was invented by the previous head of the Kang family."

Ximen Xiang added: "My grandfather once studied medicine at the Kang family."

Gu Xuan looked at Ximen Xiang and signaled not to interrupt, which made her blush slightly and she quickly shut up.

.

The waiter brought soju, and Li Xing, who always liked wine, occupied a jar for himself, and the policemen at the two tables each had a jar.

Ximen Patrol waved his hand and sent the waiter away. With another wink, a policeman came over to serve the wine.

The policeman quickly patted the unsealed mud, the aroma of wine overflowed, and poured a bowl for each person.

Gu Xuan took a sip, and the liquid went into his throat and was scalding hot. It was a good wine to dispel the cold.

Ximen Xun continued: "Five years ago, the secret recipe of An Ran Powder was stolen by a group of guards. In exchange for a large amount of money, they fled to Lingshan and became a bandit."

Wu Gang couldn't help but ask: "What kind of cultivation level do those gangsters have to arrest for five years?"

Ximen Xun explained: "The cultivation level is not high, there are only three real power realms, but the location of the bandits' den is hidden, and they have squandered money. They rarely committed crimes in the past few years. If it weren't for the recent robbery of girls one after another, the bandits accidentally missed the mark.

There is no trace of them yet.”

Wu Gang was secretly disdainful and almost showed it, hiding it by drinking.

The waiter brought a few plates of side dishes. They had taken the health elixir and would not feel hungry. They only used it to drink.

Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes and asked: "How to hide the bandits' den?"

"Master Shu's words are very kind. He asked about the key points of the trial."

Ximen Xun put down the porcelain bowl and complimented him intentionally or unintentionally.

"The bandit's nest is built in a towering dense forest. The house is not high and is completely covered by branches and leaves. The dense forest is backed by a cliff, with cliffs on the left and right. There is a bamboo forest in front and civil engineering machinery is deployed."

"Civil engineering machinery?" Ximen Fei finally became interested, "How should we attack?"

"If you are not familiar with the route and rush into the bamboo forest, you will easily get lost." Ximen Xun glanced at Li Xing, "In my opinion, it is best to fall from the sky and catch them by surprise. Dao Miao will kill the bandits, and I and the fishermen will quickly intercept the fish that slip through the net.

"

"This is feasible." Li Xing nodded, "This protector will take you to the top of the mountain and sneak in from a high place."

After discussing for a while, Li Xing gave Ximen Xun two bottles of health-preserving pills as a reward for catching the agent. This was a trial practice.

When they left after paying the bill, the wine rack was empty, Li Xing flew invisibly, others rode horses, and the policeman brought extra horses.

Riding horses are divided into four grades: high-grade BMWs, medium-grade horses, and inferior strong horses. As for the second-grade inferior horses, they can only plow fields and haul goods.

Gu Xuan has never ridden a horse, but after practicing for a long time, his limbs are flexible and he can easily learn the essentials of catching a horse.
