"Brother Jiang, have you really been to practice next to the huge rock?" Shui Youning asked in disbelief.

After hearing this, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and replied in a voice transmission: "Do you think I am a fool?"

"Idiot?" After hearing this, Shui Youning laughed and said, "If you are all idiots, then we will be even more stupid!"

"That's right! Since I'm not a fool, if I really want to steal the rotten bone flower, I will swagger to the rotten bone flower in front of Lin Yusheng and your two cousins ​​to get it? Aren't you afraid that someone will not be discovered?" Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.

"That's true. It's fine. Lin Yusheng and Wang Quan are all right. I can't believe them. But Xiang Zhong and Xiang Yong are our own members of the Shui family! How could they help outsiders harm you?" Shui Youning said with some disbelief.

"They have been aiming at the heirs of the head of the family of you and Yue Ning for a long time. If it weren't for me, maybe you two sisters would be married to Wang Quan and Lin Yusheng by your family under the pressure of the Lin Wang family. In this way, they can become the heirs of the head of the head of the Shui family and take control of the power?" Jiang Chen said angrily.

"Can we ask our third uncle and sister-in-law now: they may have colluded with Wang Quan and Lin Yusheng?" Shui Youning said with a trace of light in her pretty eyes.

"No! If you ask this now, they will definitely deny it. I took a look at the expressions of the two elders of your Shui family. Shui Tianqing is half-believing and half-doubted, and Shui Tiancheng must stand on his son Shui Xiangyong's side. In addition to the forces of the Wang family and the Lin family, by then, not only me, but you will have unimaginable consequences." Jiang Chen thought it very clearly. He knew that he could not completely break up with the enemy now.

"Then how do we deal with it now?" Shui Youning was a little anxious.

"Let it go with the flow. I don't think they will kill me, but it is very likely that they will leave me on this shore and prevent me from entering the inner layer of the cave." Jiang Chen said after thinking for a moment.

Then, he slowly said: "Actually, it's nothing to figure it out. Even if I can't get in, I can still practice here. The Yin Spirit Aura here is very heavy, which is a little stronger than the Tianmo Mountain where my sect is located. It is an excellent treasure for ghost cultivators to practice. Even if I practice here for a year, it is a good choice."

He also understood clearly. So many people walked together, and there were six Jindan stage monks. Is there any amazing treasure? Any ten thousand ** will be able to get them by six Jindan stage monks. It is impossible for them to miss the foundation-building cultivators to have many good things.

Moreover, even if he is assigned to the five Foundation Establishment Disciples of the Shui Family, he is probably ranked last.

What's more, benefits always coexist with risks. If the things inside the cave are really as powerful as the rumors, the danger is probably not small, and it is hard to say whether they will fall after entering. Although Jiang Chen is not afraid of taking risks, in this dangerous situation where external risks and internal plots exist at the same time, it is better to work alone.

Seeing that Jiang Chen had said this, Shui Youning couldn't think of a better solution, so she had to nod and agreed.

Next, Shui Tiancheng and Shui Tianqing opened Jiang Chen's storage bag together, checked it, and found that there were no rotten bone flowers in it.

Wang Quan and others insisted that it was Jiang Chen's zombie who ate it, and Jiang Chen and Xiaoqian naturally tried their best to deny the matter, saying that they were framed with hatred.

In this situation where both sides have different opinions, the elders finally decided that Jiang Chen’s suspicion was indeed the greatest.

However, under Shui Youning and Shui Yuening's entourage, there was indeed no conclusive evidence. The six elders still made a compromise: they decided to take Jiang Chen to the stagnant river first. If the Xuanming Turtle really had to carry one less person across the river because of the lack of a rotten bone flower, then they would leave Jiang Chen here. After a year, they came out of the inner space and took Jiang Chen away from the Yiling Cave.

Jiang Chen did not argue with them anymore, because he also knew that as an outsider, the Shui family could not fully trust him, let alone others? Now that they did not kill or control themselves in such a situation of doubting themselves, it was for the sake of the Shui sisters. If they argued again, it would be useless, and it might trigger greater conflicts.

However, Jiang Chen made up his mind to never let Wang Quan, Lin Yusheng, Shui Xiangzhong and Shui Xiangyong go to the future, and they must pay the price for framed themselves.

After leaving the cave where they were camping, the weather was calm all the way. Even if some skeletons and zombies occasionally approached, their level was not high and they were easily solved by everyone. At noon, the group finally arrived at the edge of the Dead Water River.

"This stagnant river is so wide!" Shui Yue stared at the river covered with gray mist and couldn't help but overstate.

The river in front of me was about twenty miles wide, and the river water was actually black. There were ghosts and skeletons floating up in the water. Green ghost fires were moving from time to time on the river surface, making waves of ghosts and howls, giving people the feeling of reaching the Styx.

Jiang Chen felt a stronger Yin spirit energy here than the original camp. Of course, in the eyes of non-ghost monks, it was a kind of dead energy.

Several disciples from the Lin family wanted to try to see if they could fly over, but as soon as they jumped into the air, they fell from the air. It seemed that there was also a prohibition on air here.

"Don't imagine that you can fly over. If you can really fly over, we don't have to collect items so hard to bribe these three tenth-level monsters." Lin Zhenbei looked at his nephews and said coldly.

"Well, and the river water is also extremely corrosive. When the foundation-building cultivator falls into it, he will soon be corroded by stagnant water into a pile of white bones. Even the Jindan cultivator can only hold on for less than half an hour, otherwise we would have swam there back then!" Lin Zhendong saw another disciple trying to try to get into the water, so he quickly reminded him.

After hearing this, the disciples showed a hint of ashamed on their faces, returned to the team, and stood with their hands down.

At this time, Wang Yuanxi took two steps forward, walked to the riverside, and shouted loudly to the center of the river: "Senior Xuanming is here? We are the monks of the Wang family, the Shui family and the Lin family in Xiangyang City. According to the agreement a hundred years ago, we have brought you rotten bone flowers!"

His voice was extremely loud, and the ears of several disciples who were close to him were buzzing. After a moment, the almost non-flowing river suddenly had a big noise. Waves swelled from the middle of the river.

Everyone looked up and saw a huge black tortoise, which was like a hill, paddling the river with four feet and swimming towards them.

Although the turtle is not very fast, its majestic aura and golden eyes as big as copper bells give people a feeling of danger and fear.

After a while, the Xuanming turtle swam to the shore and said in a buzzing voice: "Have you brought the rotten bone flower I want?"

Wang Yuanxilian nodded quickly, then untied the storage bag containing the rotten bone flowers from his waist and handed it over.

The Xuanming Turtle's ** waved, and the storage bag flew to its head with a "whisper" sound and hovered, and then the thin rope at the pocket also flew to one side and opened the pocket mouth.

"Well! Not bad! It's indeed the rotten bone flowers I want! But..." Xuan Ming Turtle looked at them at this time, and said in a very dissatisfaction: "Didn't you agree to give me twenty-one rotten bone flowers? Why did you only take out twenty? You know what I agreed at the beginning, but a rotten bone flower can only let one person go..."

Wang Yuanxi had not had time to answer. Lin Yusheng, who was standing behind him, turned his eyes and smiled and said first: "Senior Xuanming, there were originally twenty-one flowers, but last night, a rotten bone flower was eaten by a psychic zombie in our team, so one missing!"

He had already heard that the Xuanming Turtle seemed to need this rotten bone flower in great detail and was quite unhappy about missing one.

"Oh? There are actually people in your team who have psychic zombies? What level is it?" After hearing this, Xuan Ming Turtle's eyes lit up.

"Bear Senior Xuanming! He is at the level of a high-level ghost general!" Wang Quan rushed to answer.

"Haha! It's really easy to get it! Although it's just a ghost general-level zombie, and its cultivation level is a little lower, it can be used as much as possible. As long as you hand over the psychic zombie, one less rotten bone flower! I can carry you over like this!" Xuanming Turtle laughed. The laughter made its huge turtle body tremble a little.

Everyone's eyes looked at Jiang Chen to see if he agreed to give up the beautiful female zombie.

"I'm sorry, I don't agree!" Jiang Chen shook his head firmly at this time.

Just kidding, Xiaoqian's combat power is stronger than herself. With her by her side, she will be much safer. Moreover, she signed a master-servant contract with herself and would not betray her. Give up her and follow these monks to the inner layer of Yiling Cave where the fortune is uncertain. Only fools will do this!

"Good boy! How dare you disobey my orders!" After hearing this, the Xuanming Turtle was furious, and then opened its mouth and a thick black mist spurted out from its mouth, surrounding all the monks. Everyone soon discovered that their bodies could not move at all. The black mist was like a ribbon, tightly bound their hands and feet, making them unable to even raise their feet.

"Senior Xuanming, you... what do you mean?" Wang Yuanxi was shocked and begged for mercy.

Although he was extremely majestic in front of these juniors, he knew that the strength gap between him and the twelfth-level monsters, especially by the stagnant river with strong dead energy, was even more impossible to compete with the Xuanming Turtle.

"Hehe! It's your fault that you don't want to eat or not toast! I urgently need a psychic zombie now, but you obviously have it, but you don't want to hand it over. Then don't blame me for being rude!" Xuan Ming Turtle sneered in a buzzing voice.

"Senior, you misunderstood! That zombie boy is not on the same road as us! He is an outsider and has unknown origin! We are willing to hand him over to you for disposal! You let us go!" Shui Xiangzhong was also frightened at this time and said quickly.

"Yes! Although he had an engagement with the two nieces of my Shui family, he had not yet officially gotten married. Strictly speaking, he was still an outsider. Senior Xuanming, we should give you twenty rotten bone flowers according to the previous agreement. You can carry twenty of us across the river!" Shui Tiancheng also reacted and immediately expressed his intention to break up with Jiang Chen.

"Uncle San, Shui Xiangzhong, why are you so ruthless? Jiang Chen is from our Shui family! You do this, aren't you pushing him into the fire pit?" Shui Youning and Shui Yuening's pretty faces suddenly changed, and the two women scolded each other.

Shui Tiancheng then put up a soundproof barrier and covered the Shui family members in it to prevent others from hearing the conversation. Then he made a helpless expression and sighed to Shui Youning and Shui Yuening, "Oh, Youning, Yuening, it is a forced unstoppable Uncle to do this! At this point, can't you still see the third uncle? What you and Jiang Chen are just doing to show others, and you won't really marry him! Who told him that he was greedy and stole the rotten bone flower?"

"But... it's not confirmed whether that rotten bone flower was taken by Jiang Chen. Maybe they colluded and framed him on purpose!" Shui Yuening's face changed slightly, but she quickly retorted.

"Yue Ning, what do you mean? Could it be that the two of us also colluded with Wang Quan and Lin Yusheng?" After hearing this, Shui Xiangzhong and Shui Xiangyong's expressions changed immediately.

"Okay! Have you discussed the result? Will you hand over the psychic zombie?" Xuan Ming Turtle asked impatiently.
