Chapter 66 The Supreme Elder
A tall old man came in, wearing a gray robe, which seemed to have not been washed for many days, and there was a lot of dirt on the trousers.
Looking at that face again, the untrimmed beard, the hasty look and the bloodshot pupils looked very abnormal.
He came to the end of the ghost, where there was nothing but mountain walls and cliffs.
However, Jiang Chen found that he rose into the air and flew to the opposite stone wall, holding something similar to a compass in his hand.
Jiang Chen recognized what it was, he also had one in his previous life.
Array!
It is an indispensable and important prop for setting up and breaking the formation.
The flying sword formation that Jiang Chen had set up before did not use this thing, because the range of the formation was only twenty meters, and the formation flags only had four sides.
However, if you want to deploy a formation that covers the entire city, it is easy to make mistakes by relying on brain power alone.
For a formation with a range of a kilometer, at least hundreds of five-element formation flags are needed.
The importance of the array is ready to emerge.
As one of the top ten sects, Tiandaomen naturally has a large formation to protect the mountain, which is definitely a huge project.
Jiang Chen was so bored, he watched the old man holding the array disk, muttering about something.
Soon, the stone wall shone with dazzling light, densely packed characters and patterns emerged, forming a circle with a blank center.
"Stems and Earthly Branches?"
A large formation is not only amazingly powerful and has a vast area, but also has a maintenance time, the shortest is decades.
Over time, various problems are prone to occur, and someone needs to maintain it.
The characters and patterns that Jiang Chen sees now are the core of the formation layout, as well as the ideas, which are convenient for future generations to understand, improve or strengthen.
It is a very conventional method to use the ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches to record.
Not long after watching, Jiang Chen discovered the problem, but the old man was helpless, and his expression became more and more anxious.
His name is Mo Xu, the Supreme Elder of Tiandaomen, because he has a lot of experience in formation, he is in charge of the mountain guard formation of Tiandaomen.
This is a task of great responsibility, and the mountain protection formation is directly related to the survival of Tiandaomen.
During this period of time, Mo Xu discovered that there was a problem with the mountain protection array, as if he was suffering from a chronic illness, and the power of the array was losing little by little.
Mo Xu didn't dare to neglect, and started to check.
It's okay if you don't check, but you will be shocked if you check.
The situation of the mountain protection formation is far more serious than imagined, and the formation is on the verge of collapse.
He checked around, only to sink deeper into despair.
"There were flaws when the predecessors arranged the mountain protection array, and it has accumulated to explode today, and it just fell on my head!"
Mo Xu was anxious because of this, no matter what the reason was, if there was a problem with the mountain protection formation when he was in office, then he would be in big trouble.
"But, what can be done?"
Mo Xu looked at the situation of Gui Jianchou's formation, and his heart sank to the bottom, feeling powerless.
"I said senior, what are you doing in a daze? Nanwu and Dongchou have deviated, and Ding and Jia are out of place. Quickly recover."
At this time, a voice reached Mo Xu's ears, and he remembered that he saw a disciple when he came in.
"To put it lightly, this is already a terminal illness, and it will collapse if you move around." Mo Xu replied subconsciously.
Immediately, he turned his head in disbelief, and he really found that Jiang Chen was as young as he imagined, and his expression became extremely exciting.
"Is this terminally ill? All right, I'm idle and I'm idle, I'll teach you, you follow what I said, guarantee success."
Jiang Chen didn't seem to notice his expression, and said, "You move Dong Chou, move down."
Mo Xu hesitated for a moment, acted like a dead horse doctor, and did as he said.
At the beginning, Mo Xu was terrified, fearing that something might go wrong, but gradually, he caught up with Jiang Chen's train of thought, and figured out the key point, and he was suddenly astonished.
Finally, Mo Xu stepped back full of expectation, and then saw that the movement of the heavenly stems and earthly branches became extremely smooth.
"Little friend!"
Mo Xu ran in front of Jiang Chen with an excited expression on his face, just as he was about to say something, the formation diagram on the stone wall deviated again.
"This? Treating the symptoms but not the root cause? Why is this happening?" Mo Xu didn't understand what was going on.
"This is only a part of the big formation, the whole big formation is disordered, of course it can't be alone." Jiang Chen said.
Hearing this, Mo Xu danced excitedly, he can be sure that Jiang Chen's formation skills are extremely high.
However, what puzzled him was why Jiang Chen was so proficient in formations at such a young age.
All kinds of questions made him frown, he looked at Jiang Chen seriously, and said, "You are an outer disciple? Why are you facing the wall here?"
"If you commit a crime, you will be arrested." Jiang Chen said.
"What happened?"
Jiang Chen glanced at him, then told about the matter of Xuanji Palace.
"That's it? You were brought to ghosts to face the wall?" Mo Xu is not good at dealing with people, so he can hear something unusual, and thinks who Jiang Chen has offended.
"Anyway, the fair and strict criminal law court sentenced like this."
"You can refuse to serve the punishment of the disciples of the Criminal Law Hall and propose a fair trial." Mo Xu was puzzled.
A fair trial is a provision of the Criminal Court.
Disciples who refuse to accept the verdict and think they have been wronged can propose a fair trial and prove their innocence.
"I have no one to back me up, so what if I win the trial? In the end, it's not up to others to say what's right or wrong."
"I'll help you." Hearing what he said, Mo Xu said without thinking.
"Senior, what is your status in the sect?" Jiang Chen looked at him suspiciously.
Mo Xu was so angry that he blew his beard. He was obsessed with formations and knew nothing about Tiandaomen's affairs, but he knew his importance to the sect.
Not to mention anything else, he is the Supreme Elder, and this status alone is enough.
"Go ahead, if you win, the Criminal Law Hall will still target you, I will tear down the Criminal Law Hall!"
"real?"
"really!"
"Then I'll just go out?" Jiang Chen pointed to the entrance of Gui Jianchou, staring at Mo Xu's face.
"Go, go, I'll think about what you just said."
Gui Jianchou is unguarded, and every place facing the wall is like this.
The punished disciple who left the wall-facing area without authorization will be severely punished.
Jiang Chen dared to leave because he had his own intentions, so Elder Mo's words were incoherent, and he would never believe what he said casually.
But the other party is holding the formation plate and maintaining the Tiandaomen's mountain protection formation, this is definitely not an ordinary elder.
Therefore, Jiang Chen swaggered back to his residence.
Along the way, the disciples I met were like seeing ghosts.
Pushing open the door, Jiang Chen smelled a pungent smell of medicine, and his expression changed. At this moment, a pretty maid walked towards him.
"Who are you? Why are you here where I live?"
"I am the princess's personal servant girl, here to take care of Meng Hao."
"Meng Hao? What happened to Meng Hao?" Jiang Chen asked.
The servant girl couldn't bear to say that and led him to the bedside.
Jiang Chen's face became ugly, Meng Hao was seriously injured, more than half of his bones were broken, he was bleeding a lot, his nose was blue and his eyes were swollen, and he was lying unconscious on the bed.
"what happened?"
"On the day you went to Gui Jianchou, Zheng Ping brought people here, saying that Meng Hao stole his things, broke in and searched for the stolen things, and beat Meng Hao like this."
"This is obviously revenge, doesn't the sect care?"
"Meng Hao is not a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect."
That's right, Meng Hao's identity is just Jiang Chen's follower, if it wasn't for Wen Xin's kindness, he would have died here long ago.
Many old friends have come here, I am very happy, Muzhi will update it well!
