This is a green sorghum field that stretches for miles, and the fragrance of the plants is light and comfortable.

This kind of place is extremely secretive and quiet, and it has always been an excellent place for men and women to have an affair, but at this moment, there are two men sitting in the depths of the sorghum ground. [..]

"Tell me about your origin and purpose." Wu Maxi searched out all the odds and ends of the middle-aged man, spread them on the ground, and asked casually while researching.

The middle-aged man lost a lot of blood, and there was a trace of paleness in his dark red face. He didn't answer immediately, but stared at Wu Maxi for a moment, before asking, "Are you from the Cha family?"

"You can think so." Wu Maxi swung the short knife in her right hand, and cut off the middle-aged man's left little finger, "I asked the question first, and if you want to disrupt the order, you have to pay the price. "

The anger in the eyes of the middle-aged man flashed, and then he was suppressed forcibly, and said calmly: "Since we are brothers of the Cha family, then we should not be enemies." The middle-aged man stopped at this point, his Feeling slightly dizzy in his head, he opened his eyes to observe Wu Maxi's reaction.

"Don't test my patience," Wu Maxi looked at the blade of the dagger, a trace of blood slowly pooled on the white blade, "You haven't answered my question yet."

Seeing Wu Maxi's cold and determined expression, the middle-aged man knew that it was impossible to take the initiative with words, and said, "Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Huo and my name is Bihai. I come from the blood sacrifice school overseas."

There were many schools in the Wanliu Era, but Wu Maxi had no impression of the school of blood sacrifice.

Huo Bihai's voice was a little weak, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Wumaxi's face, but didn't see anything from it, and then continued: "Since he was driven out of the mainland thousands of years ago, the blood sacrifice has been drifting overseas. The situation has changed, so Huo Mou and a few seniors were ordered by the elders to return to the mainland to investigate the situation. Who knew that we had an accident just after returning to the mainland, and a female thief stole our ancestral belongings. Although this ancestral relic It is not a valuable item, but after all, it was handed down from the ancestors. For the door, it is quite commemorative. This time, everyone is very upset. Fortunately, the ancestral item will emit strange fluctuations from time to time. We use the door's The shadow mirror followed the fluctuation all the way, but unexpectedly found that the ancestor was on the young master. The next time I was so anxious about the ancestor that I offended him, I hope that the young master will forgive Huo for his recklessness."

Wu Maxi took off the bracelet on her left wrist, showed it in front of Huo Bihai, and asked: "The ancestor you mentioned, is this bracelet?"

Huo Bihai suddenly saw the bracelet, his face was a little excited, and he said: "Yes, yes, this is it, how could this thing be in your hands?"

Wu Maxi didn't answer, she stared at the bracelet carefully, and there seemed to be no flaws in what the other party said, but Wu Maxi didn't want to believe it easily, and asked, "What's the name of this bracelet? When did it come from handed down? "

"This bracelet is called the Moon Bracelet with Phoenix Pattern. According to the records in the sect, it has a history of thousands of years. It is a relic of a female senior in the sect." Huo Bihai stared at Wu Maxi's face, "The elders in the sect don't like this bracelet. After research, there is nothing unusual about this bracelet."

"Since there is nothing unusual about it, why did you bring it back to the mainland?"

Huo Bihai said: "My lord, I don't know something. My brothers and sisters have just entered the mainland, and the people and the land are unfamiliar. The fluctuations that this bracelet emits from time to time are just convenient for us to communicate with each other, so I took it with me on the road."

This person can find himself by following the fluctuation of the bracelet, and this reason is also reasonable.

Wu Maxi stopped dwelling on this issue, changed the subject, and asked: "You said just now that you and the Cha family should not be enemies. Could it be that the Cha family has some connection with the blood sacrifice?"

Huo Bihai said: "It has been passed down from generation to generation by the elders of the faction that the blood sacrifice was purged by the Jian family thousands of years ago. It was thanks to the help of senior Zha Yihou that the blood sacrifice was able to survive overseas and keep its continuity. Therefore, the Cha family has great respect for the blood sacrifice." Our blood sacrifice is a great favor, if I knew that the young master is a disciple of the Cha family, how would I dare to be abrupt?"

"So the flood flooded the Dragon King Temple?"

Wumaxi's expression was cold, Huo Bihai didn't know whether this sentence was a taunt or what, so he could only respond: "It's all my fault for being reckless, ashamed, ashamed."

Wuma Xi said: "Thousands of years ago, it was the Blood Sacrifice that owed Patriarch Zha, but didn't Patriarch Zha owe you all?"

This question was a bit inexplicable, Huo Bihai was a little puzzled, and could only answer in a regular manner: "Check the great kindness of seniors in the blood sacrifice, the blood sacrifice is inscribed in my heart, how can I reverse the relationship between them."

"That's right," Wumaxi raised her head and looked at Huo Bihai, "Your blood sacrifices have the obligation to repay Mrs. Cha's kindness, but Mrs. Cha has no obligation to repay the blood sacrifices. I want to kill you, no matter what the reason is." Sorry, what's the use of telling me this?"

Huo Bihai was at a loss for words, thought for a moment, and said: "This matter is all due to my recklessness, and naturally I can't blame Young Master. I came across the sea this time, but heard a piece of news, which is somewhat related to the Cha family."

"Tell me." Wu Maxi's tone was still indifferent, she lowered her head and methodically checked Huo Bihai's luggage.

Huo Bihai wanted to ask the other party to make some promises, but he also knew that it would be hard to say too bluntly, so he thought for a long time before saying, "I don't think you are young, you should only be a student in the Cha family?"

"You look down on me?" Wu Maxi had a keen sense of tone.

"Don't dare, dare not." Huo Bihai said repeatedly, "It's just that this news is of great importance. Even if the Cha clan is powerful, I'm afraid it must be treated with caution. The young master is only a student of the Cha clan. Although he has cultivated well, But I feel that it is better to leave this matter to the elders of the Cha family, and you should not get involved in this conspiracy."

Wu Maxi raised her head and stared into Huo Bihai's eyes for a long time, until Huo Bihai felt a little guilty, Wumaxi finally said: "You just look down on me."

"How would you dare!" Huo Bihai was terrified, and took a small step back appropriately, "I can only reveal to you a general idea of ​​this matter, there are dozens of overseas sects secretly forming an alliance, and they are planning to do something on the mainland. The big tree attracts the wind, and it is also among the targets of the opponent."

Wu Maxi frowned slightly, stopped searching in her hands, and said, "Why, what is the purpose of these people?"

Huo Bihai said: "The Orchid Pond meeting is being prepared, and dragons and snakes are taking off on the mainland, each for its own benefit, so naturally some people will make these moves."

Wu Maxi thought for a moment, then suddenly picked up something and put it in front of Huo Bihai, and asked, "What is this?"

It was a badge with a pair of deformed peacocks engraved on it. The elongated bodies of the peacocks were intertwined, enchanting and gorgeous. On the back of the badge were engraved the two seal characters of "Huo Jiu".

Huo Bihai was stunned for a moment by this sudden topic, looked down, and said, "This is the identity badge of our blood sacrifice, and the word Huo Jiu after it refers to the following."

Blood sacrifice badge?

Wumaxi was suspicious, but she didn't say anything. She picked up a miniature compass that looked like a pocket watch, and said, "This thing is the creeping mirror you use to track the moon bracelet?"

"Yes!" The other party's topic jumped too fast, Huo Bihai could only answer carefully to avoid making mistakes.

"How do you use it?"

"Input the spiritual power from the mirror chain, and when there is a fluctuation in the moon bracelet, it will be displayed on the mirror."

"When that girl gave the moon bracelet to me, she also said that it was her ancestral bracelet." Wu Maxi finished speaking calmly, carefully observing the other party's reaction.

"Giving it to you, how is it possible?" Huo Bihai's face was full of incredulity, and then came to his senses, and said with a smile: "When the female thief stole this moon bracelet, she put in so much effort and was willing to take risks, so I really didn't expect that she would Give the moon bracelet to someone."

The other party's reaction fell into Wumaxi's eyes, and he raised another probing topic again: "You are right, she did not give it to me, I am killing people to seize treasure."

"You killed her?" Huo Bihai's expression changed.

This woman's status is extraordinary and her relationship is very important, which is the main purpose of Huo Bihai's group coming to the Northwest this time.When he first saw Wumaxi, Huo Bihai guessed that the girl might be killed, so he showed his killing intent.Hearing Wu Maxi's confession at this moment, she was still shocked, and her face became paler after losing blood.

Seeing his reaction, Wu Maxi guessed that the girl should be extremely important to him.He knew that this person's words were slippery, so he was too lazy to go around in circles with him, and said: "Three questions, who are you? Who is that girl? What is this phoenix-patterned moon bracelet? You said that the overseas faction formed an alliance against the Cha family." Is it true or false?"

Said it was three questions, Wu Maxi said four as soon as she opened her mouth, looked at Huo Bihai coldly, and waited for the other party to answer.

"Everything Huo said is true, why don't you believe it?" Huo Bihai felt a little scared and empty in his heart, forcing a puzzled expression.

"What you said seems reasonable, but I, Zhang Fengyin, am not a mallet either. First, I don't believe that this double sparrow badge is a blood sacrifice; second, why is there a totem of the deadly enemy Jane on it? Third, The artistic conception you use and the things you bring with you are obviously biased towards celestial phenomena." Wu Maxi stared into Huo Bihai's eyes with indifference.

Huo Bihai was a little guilty, and explained to Wu Maxi's gaze: "The double sparrow badge is indeed..."

Wu Maxi interrupted his defense with a wave of her hand, and said: "You don't need to defend yourself, when you first saw me, your gaze was full of murderous intent, like a wild beast, but judging by your current performance, although you deliberately restrain yourself , but it is unavoidable to back and forth, insincere. Your performance is hard to make me believe you. In addition, it is not very important to me whether what you say is true or not."

Huo Bihai's face was as pale as dirt, but he still refused to give up and said: "The blood sacrifice has a relationship with the Cha family..."

"I know that you are talking about this origin just to delay time, so that your companions can find them. If you can answer me satisfactorily, I will give you this chance to meet those companions again and see if they can be saved. You." Wumaxi cut off Huo Bihai's ring finger with a swing of the dagger, "You seem to be out of order again."
