Rain!
It was the rain!
Seeing the heavy rain outside, Ye Fan's eyes widened!
He stood up from his chair, walked quickly to the window, and opened it!
Outside the window, the rain was pouring down, lightning flashed, and thunder roared!
The people who were beating the drums and beating the gongs to chase the Heavenly Hounds away were all drenched!
They used the gongs and pots in their hands to cover their heads, laughing as they rushed back home to avoid the sudden storm!
The Heavenly Hounds were chased away, and the rain fell. Of course, they were happy!
They were not the only ones who were happy. Ye Fan was happy too!
The reason was simple.
With such a heavy storm, it would definitely form a swamp!
Then, he would be able to find the Yin-Yang Eccentric Old Man and obtain the divine cauldron!
Thinking of this, Ye Fan smiled.
It was not too late.
On the contrary, it was just the beginning.
He gently closed the window, turned around, and sat down at the tea table with a smile. He began to drink his tea.
"Why are you so happy all of a sudden?"
Akatsuki frowned as she looked at the smiling Ye Fan, who was drinking by himself.
Just a moment ago, he was frowning with a frown. Why was he so happy all of a sudden?
She could not understand.
"It's raining so heavily. Isn't that something to be happy about?" Ye Fan poured a cup of tea for Akatsuki and asked with a smile.
"You're so happy just because it's raining?" Akatsuki took the tea from Ye Fan and asked in confusion.
"Silly," Ye Fan took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "When there's rain, there's a swamp."
Akatsuki was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly understood!
No wonder Ye Fan was so happy. So that was the reason!
Ye Fan was right. With such a heavy storm, some places would definitely form a swamp!
"That's great," Akatsuki said happily. "We didn't come here for nothing!"
"Once the rain stops, we'll immediately go out and scout for the swamp." Ye Fan put down his teacup and said.
"Yes." Akatsuki nodded.
At this time, the two of them were no longer sleepy. They simply held the candlelight and talked through the night, waiting for the rain to stop.
"How are the three clones you controlled?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"You mean the three of them? Haha, "Ye Fan put down his teacup and said with a smile," At this time, they are enjoying the scenery in Jiangnan. They are enjoying themselves. "
"Our original bodies are running around in this desolate land, bitterly searching for swamps, while our substitutes are carefree and happy in Jiangnan's scenic spots, singing the wind and the moon. Fate is truly unfair." Akatsuki joked.
"How about this, the next time we encounter such a situation, you and my substitutes will go sightseeing, drinking, and having fun. Xiao Zhao and I will search for the Nine Cauldrons. What do you think?" Ye Fan asked Akatsuki with a smile.
"That won't do!" Hearing Ye Fan's words, Akatsuki immediately became anxious. "I'm just saying, don't take it seriously!"
"What? You don't want to go sightseeing? "Ye Fan asked Akatsuki.
"If we want to play, we'll play together. If we want to suffer, we'll suffer together. I don't want to be with your substitutes," Akatsuki said as she sipped her tea.
Ye Fan smiled but didn't say anything.
"That's right, what do you plan to do with that expert who impersonated you?" Akatsuki put down her teacup and asked Ye Fan.
"Kill him," Ye Fan said calmly.
This person had impersonated him and killed three bell-keepers in succession. This was simply unforgivable!
There was no reason to spare this kind of person's life.
"This person's cultivation is extremely high. I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for you to find him," Akatsuki said.
"Don't worry, after this matter is settled, I'll deal with this matter," Ye Fan said with narrowed eyes.
"How do you plan to find him?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"It's very simple, just set up a trap," Ye Fan said calmly as he picked up the teapot and poured more tea into his cup.
Since Matsumoto Takeyoshi had set up a trap to use him, then he would beat him at his own game and set up a trap within a trap!
"Set up a trap? What kind of trap? "Akatsuki asked.
"You'll know when the time comes," Ye Fan smiled mysteriously and replied …
The torrential rain continued for an entire two hours.
It wasn't until the fourth night that the rain gradually stopped.
"The rain has stopped."
Hearing the sound of rain dripping from the roof, Akatsuki said to Ye Fan gently.
"Bring Xiao Zhao with you. We'll go out and take a look," Ye Fan stood up from his chair and said to Akatsuki.
"Okay," Akatsuki nodded in response.
The two of them blew out the candles on the table and brought along the sleepy Xiao Zhao. Opening the back window, they used a light body technique and floated out of the inn.
At this moment, the outside of the inn was muddy and extremely muddy.
Looking at the situation, Ye Fan frowned.
If they were to walk on such a muddy road, even if they used a light body technique, they would not be able to get far even if they walked for half a day.
But if they were to use spirit energy to fly, there was a high possibility that they would be discovered by Ghost Eyes Thousand Seeker.
Ye Fan was in a dilemma.
After pondering for a while, Ye Fan came up with a compromise, which was to use spirit energy but not fly.
Using extremely weak spirit energy to float an inch above the ground should not be a problem.
After all, he still had his doppelganger to cover for him.
Let's do it this way then.
"Give me your hand," Ye Fan turned around to look at Akatsuki and said.
Akatsuki was stunned, not knowing what Ye Fan was trying to do.
She raised her hand slowly and passed it to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan grabbed Akatsuki's hand and with a thought, he channeled his spirit energy!
Buzz …
Following the channeling of Ye Fan's spirit energy, the two of them slowly floated off the ground. They were less than an inch above the ground!
The spirit energy that Ye Fan channeled this time around could be said to be controlled perfectly.
Not too much, not too little, it was just enough to bring the two of them off the ground.
This way, not only would they not delay their journey, they could also avoid detection by Ghost Eyes Thousand Seeker.
After all, the two of them were only an inch above the ground.
At this moment, the sky was still dark. Coupled with the fact that the two of them were wearing robes and cloaks that covered their feet completely, no one would be able to tell that their feet were off the ground!
Akatsuki's face flushed red as her heart thumped furiously.
Ye Fan's warm hands gave her a sense of security.
Following Ye Fan's careful channeling of his spirit energy, the two of them began to float on the muddy road.
As Ye Fan floated, he channeled his vision and scanned the surroundings carefully, looking for a swamp.
Even though he had concealed his spirit energy, his five senses were not affected at all.
It was also because of this that he was able to look into the distance, and he didn't have to delay the important matters because his movement technique was obstructed.
"A hundred miles to the southeast, there's a withered forest. Let's go there and take a look."
After an hour, Ye Fan spoke to Akatsuki who was beside him.
Just as he said, he had discovered a dense yet withered poplar forest a hundred miles to the southeast.
As Ye Fan spoke, he changed the direction of his flight to the southeast with a single thought.
This time, his floating speed was clearly much faster.
The sky was about to brighten up and he had to make the best use of his time.
"Will there be swamps in the withered forest?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"That's a withered poplar forest. Furthermore, it's all over the place. In my opinion, it should be due to the soft mud. Who knows, there might be swamps there." Ye Fan explained to Akatsuki.
Akatsuki nodded her head.
After half an incense's time, the two of them stopped in front of the poplar forest.
This was a huge wild poplar forest that spanned at least a few dozen mu.
One could tell that this place must have been filled with lush greenery in the past.
The poplar forest was full of rainwater and emitted a rotten smell.
Ye Fan bent down and picked up a three feet long, withered tree branch that was as thick as an arm. He then casually threw it into the poplar forest.
Puff …
The spinning withered branch was directly inserted into the muddy ground of the poplar forest.
Ye Fan was testing whether the ground here was a swamp or not.
If it was a swamp, the withered branch would gradually sink and sink into the mud. If it wasn't, the withered branch would remain motionless.
On the muddy ground, the withered branch was quietly inserted there, motionless.
It seemed that this wasn't the place they were looking for.
Ye Fan thought.
As he was thinking, he and Akatsuki slowly turned around and prepared to leave.
Gurgle … gurgle … gurgle …
Just as they turned around, a burst of bubbling sounds came from the poplar forest behind them.
Ye Fan frowned and immediately turned around.
He saw that the withered branch that hadn't moved a bit earlier was now slowly sinking into the mud.
The scene in front of him made Ye Fan's eyes tighten instantly!
He didn't think that this was really a swamp!
"This … this place is really …" Akatsuki was also stunned by the scene in front of her.
"You guys wait for me here. I'll go in and take a look." Ye Fan turned around and said to Akatsuki.
"You … you want to go alone?" Akatsuki asked worriedly.
Ye Fan couldn't easily use his spiritual power now. If he went in alone, she was afraid that Ye Fan wouldn't be able to handle it.
If the Yin Yang Freak in the swamp was a difficult guy to deal with, Ye Fan would definitely be at a disadvantage.
The Yin Yang Freak didn't sound like a good guy.
She wanted to go in with Ye Fan. That way, she could also help.
"The rotting smell is too strong and the miasma is pervasive. If you go in, you may be in danger." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki, "Listen to me. Stay here and don't go anywhere. Wait for me to come back."
Akatsuki pursed her lips and nodded.
"Remember, no matter what sounds come from inside, don't go in." Ye Fan reminded Akatsuki, "There seems to be an array in this withered forest. If you go in, you may not be able to come out."
"What about you?" Akatsuki heard Ye Fan's words and immediately asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Ye Fan comforted Akatsuki, "After I go in, prepare the two hidden weapons. No matter who it is, as long as they come close to you, just shoot them. As long as I hear your movements inside, I will immediately rush back. "
"Then … be careful." Akatsuki reminded Ye Fan.
