Chapter 167 Strange things
Night came quickly. Because of the events of the Tianqi Sect and the Dajian Sect, although everyone was in the tent, basically no one slept. Everyone was a little nervous.

After all, what happened to the Tianqi Sect and the Dajian Sect was a bit too shocking.

Han Weicheng brought a surviving old disciple of the Tianqi Sect and guarded the left side.

"Hello, Deacon Han."

Ding Huan came to Han Weicheng and took the initiative to greet him.

"Hello, Fellow Daoist Ding." Han Weicheng responded quickly.

He was actually very strange. Unless he was stupid, no one would be willing to take the initiative to stand guard at this time.

He came out on duty because he had to be on duty.

He really couldn't understand why this chef named Ding had to come out on duty.

Ding Huan smiled and said:
"Deacon Han must be wondering why I volunteered to be on duty, right?"

Han Weicheng smiled. He was puzzled by Ding Huan’s choice, but he didn’t want to know.

Ding Huan took the initiative to say:

"I am not from the Yanyue Sect. I am just a chef hired by the Yanyue Sect in the mortal world. When this journey is over, I will leave the Yanyue Sect."

Han Weicheng could only listen, but he was thinking in his heart, what does this have to do with him?
"I admire the Tianqi Sect very much, and I would like to ask Deacon Han what the requirements are if I want to join the Tianqi Sect."

After hearing Ding Huan say this, Han Weicheng finally understood.

It turns out that this chef wants to join a Taoist sect. Maybe he thinks that joining the Tianqi Sect is easier than joining the Yanyue Sect. This is obviously unlikely. He can only shake his head:
"I'm sorry, but the Tianqi Sect has very high requirements for the qualifications of its disciples. I can't make the decision on this matter."

Ding Huan was naturally not naive enough to think that he could join the Tianqi Sect. He just wanted to come to the outskirts of the Tianqi Sect through an excuse.

"Deacon Han, I have great respect for the Tianqi Sect. I am confident that my cooking skills are pretty good. If I don't join the Tianqi Sect, is there any way to stay near the Tianqi Sect?"

Ding Huan's tone was extremely sincere.

Regardless of whether Qi Xinyue can leave the God Clan and come to Tianqi Sect to find him, he will have to wait outside Tianqi Sect for a while, just in case.

Even if you leave, you must leave a mark.

Han Weicheng did not respond to Ding Huan's words, as he and Ding Huan did not have any friendship.

Besides, a cook is not worth making friends with. Even if this cook seems to be able to talk to Elder Gu, so what?
If you are a cook and prepare delicious food along the way, you can also say a word or two to the elders.

"Yu Heer, look over there, isn't it..."

Han Weicheng didn't take Ding Huan to heart, but he felt something was wrong when he greeted the Tianqi Sect disciples around him.

"Yu Heer..."

Han Weicheng inexplicably felt a chill that made him terrified. You Heer, who had been following him, disappeared.

"Friend Ding, have you seen You Heer?" Han Weicheng stared at Ding Huan nervously.

He knew very well that even if You Heer had to leave for something, he would definitely tell him before leaving.

Moreover, Yu Heer didn't leave so quickly. He disappeared in almost an instant. There must be something wrong.

Ding Huan waved his hand, signaling Han Weicheng to be quiet, and then walked out of the safety line.

He was different from Han Weicheng. Although he was talking to Han Weicheng just now, his spiritual sense had been covering the surrounding situation, and You Heer was also within the range of his spiritual sense.

He saw with his own eyes that Yu Heer walked out of the safe area on his own, as if he was confused by something.

"Friend Ding, what are you doing?" Seeing Ding Huan actually walking out, Han Weicheng was so scared that he quickly called Ding Huan.

Ding Huan rushed out, but before he could catch You Heer, an icy breath penetrated over.

This is a neurotoxin. Although Ding Huan didn't care about the toxin, he didn't dare to stay any longer. He slapped the completely lost You Heer and knocked him out, then pulled him back.

Han Weicheng, who was about to inform Elder Gu, was relieved when he saw Ding Huan coming back and bringing You Heer back.

When Ding Huan caught You Heer, he knew that this guy was poisoned.

He had no intention of detoxifying Yu Heer, but just said:

"Deacon Han, he's been poisoned. Is there an antidote?"

Hearing Ding Huan's words, Han Weicheng quickly took out a pill and put it into You Heer's mouth.

Ding Huan kept staring at You Heer. He felt that Han Weicheng's detoxification pill might not be useful. But after You Heer came back, the toxin seemed to dissipate on its own.

This is a very strange poison.

A few minutes later, You Heer opened his eyes, saw Han Weicheng and quickly called out, "Deacon Han."

"Yu Heer, what's wrong with you? Why did you walk out alone just now?"

Han Weicheng asked anxiously.

"I don't know. I seemed to have seen Elder Zhen Feng just now. Elder Zhen asked me to go over, so I went over."

Yu Heer still seemed a little confused.

"Deacon Han, are you okay?"

Elder Gu's anxious voice was heard, followed by old man Gu.

"We are fine, it's just that You Heer almost walked out." Han Weicheng replied quickly.

Elder Gu looked solemn:
"Two of our guard disciples have just disappeared. Be careful. There are some strange things here. Don't leave the defense line."

Han Weicheng shuddered subconsciously when he heard this. If it weren't for Ding Huan, You Heer beside him would have disappeared too.

After Elder Gu finished speaking, he seemed to remember something and asked:
"Deacon Han, what did you say about You Heer almost walking out just now?"

Han Weicheng said quickly:
"I found that You He'er was missing, and it was Fellow Daoist Ding who went out and brought You He'er back." "Ding Huan? How do you know where You He'er is?" Elder Gu looked at Ding Huan in confusion.

Ding Huan explained:
"I was following behind Deacon Han the whole time, and I happened to see Daoyou You walking out in a daze. I didn't think too much at the time and rushed over to pull Daoyou You back."

Elder Gu nodded, and he felt more and more that Ding Huan was a talented person.

The night ended in this state of fear.

The next morning, when everyone was packing up their tents, they discovered that two people were missing.

Deacon Qiong looked a little unhappy. After all, the two missing disciples of Yanyue Sect were the ones who followed him.

"Elder Gu, the place where the accident happened is not far from here. If we just go there..." Han Weicheng was still frightened.

"Well, let's set off at noon." Elder Gu made the decision.

Everyone thought that Elder Gu chose to set out at noon when the Yang energy was strong and it would be difficult for evil spirits to come out and harm people.

Only Gu Youchang himself understood that he was waiting for other sects to join him.

Even though there are more than 30 people in their group, their strength is still too weak.

Only by joining forces with other sects can we increase our strength and pass through this rather strange section.

Before noon, everyone saw a group of people approaching from afar.

"It's the Shuanghun Sect and Zixia Valley..." Deacon Qiong exclaimed in surprise.

Both the Shuanghun Sect and the Zixia Valley are powerful sects, and the people coming this time are led by elders.

"Elder Gu, why did you stop here?"

A beautiful middle-aged woman came over first and greeted Gu Youchang from a distance.

Following behind this beautiful woman was a young man.

Gu Youchang also clasped his fists:

"Meet Elder Liu of Zixia Valley and Elder Qu of Shuanghun Sect."

Ding Huan watched from afar, thinking that Elder Qu of the Shuanghun Sect was indeed young. Hehe, a sect that possessed a body.

"Yes, Brother Gu, why is the Yanyue Sect not moving forward?"

The young elder Qu from the Shuanghun Sect also asked in confusion.

Gu Youchang called Han Weicheng over:
"Deacon Han, tell me what happened yesterday."

After Han Weicheng stepped forward to greet them, he told them how the Tianqi Sect and the Dajian Sect were almost completely wiped out yesterday.

"Is there such a strange thing?"

Elder Liu of Zixia Valley frowned.

The Dahe Canyon is indeed full of dangers, but most of the dangers are sudden attacks from monsters, accidentally getting lost and being killed by monster plants, or getting stuck in a quagmire.

Such a strange thing has never happened before when I was walking on the road.

Gu Youchang said:
"Now that we have more people, why don't we go together?"

Both the Shuanghun Sect and the Tianqi Sect agreed with Gu Youchang's proposal that there is strength in numbers.

The team, which originally had more than 30 people, suddenly had 50 more people.

There were nearly a hundred people in the group moving forward, and with several elders and deacons watching in front and behind, it seemed a lot safer.

With more than a hundred people walking, the speed was much slower.

There are too many strong people here, so Ding Huan dare not let his spiritual sense penetrate out casually, but he can penetrate downwards.

An hour later, Ding Huan felt something was wrong. The soil beneath his mind seemed a little messy.

There were even some bloodstains buried under the soil, and some torn clothes in the soil.

Ding Huan's spiritual sense spread out carefully, and he was even more certain that this was the place where the incident between the Tianqi Sect and the Dajian Sect had occurred before.

Since this is where the accident happened, why does it look like there are no traces at all, and all the traces are buried well under the soil?

Not only that, Han Weicheng didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

Ding Huan had a bad feeling in his heart. He no longer cared about being noticed by the strong ones and spread his spiritual thoughts out.

What immediately made Ding Huan feel a chill down his spine was that they were not on the road, but were walking in the jungle.

Whether it was Elder Gu, Elder Liu from Zixia Valley, or Elder Qu from Shuanghun Sect, they were all paying close attention to their surroundings while walking deeper into the jungle.

Ding Huan withdrew his mind, and wherever his eyes went, he saw a road that was created by long walking.

This made him gasp, and he was sure that everyone saw the same thing as he saw now.

Could it be that it was because his divine consciousness had been tempered in the universe, so that it was almost a real existence?

That's why I can feel that I am not on the main road.

Ding Huan rubbed his eyes, and to his surprise, he could see this time that they were not on the road, but in the jungle.

How is this going?

Why can only I see it clearly, but others can't?

No, what he saw seemed to be the road, but just now after his spiritual sense observed that it was no longer on the road, his eyes returned to normal.

Ding Huan sighed. He really couldn't trust these sect elders. If he continued to follow them, he would be taken to the gates of hell.
