However, they will definitely try the answer given by the old man in gray. Now they are trapped in this Dharma Treasure. In just a few days, they have already developed some despair.

That problem was like a damn curse, plaguing them all the time and making them uneasy.

They have no other worries about the old man in gray clothes. The two girls believe that the old man in gray clothes still cannot control this Dharma Treasure.

Therefore, the worst outcome would be for them to hide in the front yard again, but the answer given by Li Yan seemed to make them think of some possibility.

"Sister, why does he help us like this?"

Ming Yu immediately sent a message secretly.

"I don't know, maybe... maybe he has Essence Blood from Undying Underworld Phoenix in his blood, which makes him more or less recognize our existence!"

Ming Qi gave a somewhat uncertain answer.

However, she couldn't convince herself too much. Wouldn't it be better if the other person got the Undying Underworld Phoenix inheritance that might exist here? It would make that person stronger.

This is the greatest benefit of the monks, and everything else is far inferior to it.

But this can be explained by blood. Although the opponent is Human Race, his physical body has indeed been integrated with Undying Underworld Phoenix.

The real Undying Underworld Phoenix may have disappeared in this world, or is almost extinct, and is difficult to find again. The process of their family's search is the identification.

Then a person is affected by his Essence Blood and already recognizes the relationship between Undying Underworld Phoenix and himself, and thoughts of the same race may also appear.

Ming Qi understands this kind of loneliness. Undying Underworld Phoenix's identity will be hidden from the outside world, and they themselves are eager to find the same people so that they can release their inner thoughts.

Otherwise, people like the old man in gray who have obtained the Undying Underworld Phoenix talent Divine Ability alone can only keep this secret silently.

Once it is known to outsiders, the old man in gray will also end up being refined by others. Although this reason is not sufficient, it can be regarded as an explanation.

It's just that the two girls never dreamed that Li Yan was already laying a net for themselves due to special sect reasons.

Any opportunity that is beneficial to Li Yan, he can sacrifice part of his own interests in exchange for more benefits.

Especially this time, he actually encountered Yin-Yang Chaos Sect monks in this Yellow Qi Valley. This was something he had never expected.

But this is also because we are in the Cangxuan Realm, so it is only a matter of time before we meet our enemies, but this time it is a bit too coincidental.

Li Yan always makes decisions before taking action. Although giving up the two girls may allow him to get more immediate benefits, rescuing the other girl will bring him unpredictable risks.

What if Undying Underworld Phoenix over here didn't die, but just fell into a deep sleep like Ping Tu, or was in seclusion for a long time.

Once he woke up in the end, he would be able to know the identities of himself and the two girls as long as he had a brief understanding of the situation, and he would immediately be in great danger.

But Li Yan still feels that due to the existence of Yellow Qi Valley, the chance of this is less than 20%. Since he wants to get benefits, it is impossible not to take risks.

When it comes to scheming, the Ming sisters are also smart and wise, but compared to Li Yan, they are still much inferior.

Li Yan took a few steps back after transmitting the message. He was not sure whether his answer could be used again after someone came out.

This was also the reason why he did not enter the courtyard again and try again. That would be an act of getting carried away.

I saw that Ming Qi and Ming Yu did not immediately walk towards the circular arch after listening to their voice transmission. Instead, their eyes flashed continuously. They should be discussing something through the voice transmission in secret?

Li Yan would not try to persuade her again, as that would be counterproductive. He knew that the other party would definitely try. It was not like he had not personally experienced the torture in this Dharma Treasure.

The two girls were just trying to convince themselves that Li Yan was willing to take them out, but the result was indeed unconventional. It would have been better for Li Yan not to explain, but to let the other party make random guesses.

Sure enough, after only seven or eight breaths passed, Ming Yu shook her head firmly and walked directly to the courtyard gate. Obviously she wanted to try it first.

When Ming Qi saw this, the expression on his face only moved slightly, and then he stood behind the opponent, with mana surging throughout his body, indicating that he was ready to respond at any time.

In addition to knowing about the attacks of those scarecrows, they didn't know whether other changes would happen after Li Yan gave the answer.

But at this moment, do they have any other choice?

Just when Ming Yu stepped on the edge of the courtyard door, her body immediately stopped there, and Li Yan outside the courtyard was also staring at the courtyard door.

He discovered that the moment Ming Yu stopped, the courtyard door that he could still see clearly suddenly disappeared.

Then the figures of Ming Yu and Ming Qi behind him were actually obscured by a thick black shadow. Even with his Divine Sense, he could not see the two figures at all.

"You can't see the scarecrow and the area dozens of feet near the courtyard gate. The thick black shadow should be some kind of defense. Dharma Treasure People outside can no longer detect the strange situation inside.

This should be to prevent anyone from entering from this direction, and to have someone stay outside to respond, so that the scarecrow cannot be attacked from both inside and outside..."

And just as Li Yan's thoughts were whirling, suddenly the scene in front of him was another flower, a pretty figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and the backyard door appeared again.

But at this time, Ming Yu was standing in a daze outside the hospital, while Ming Qi inside the hospital had her red lips opened. Both women were obviously still in disbelief.

"I... I... really came out..."

Ming Yu murmured to himself and looked around in shock.

And soon, her eyes quickly gathered again, and she turned directly to look at the courtyard.

"Sister!"

The brilliance in the eyes of Ming Qi in the courtyard has become extremely bright. Just when Ming Yu looked at her, she was already walking towards the courtyard gate...

Looking at the familiar scenes around them, Ming Qi and Ming Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath. Then the two women did not need to communicate at all and bowed deeply to Li Yan.

"Thank you, senior!"

Li Yan nodded and did not want to say more on this matter.

"Then take a look at the surrounding situation first, and then make the next step!"

After saying that, his body was already hanging in the air. When the two women saw this, they immediately followed him and looked around at the same time.

There are spiritual fields here, but apart from the large weeds, they haven't found any treasures yet, and the scarecrows don't exist at all.

In the air, the three people Divine Sense were constantly probing around. Although Li Yan had explored the area before, they only quickly put away the herbs inside, and there was no other search.

"Senior, I wonder if we can know how you came up with that answer? If it's not convenient for you to answer, then you can just assume that you are talking nonsense."

While investigating, Ming Qi couldn't help but ask after thinking about it.

In fact, from the answer given by Li Yan, she and Ming Yu already knew the intention of the person who set the trap, but they had thought about so many answers and never expected it to be so simple.

During this period, the old man in gray also failed again and again, but he was obviously still exploring the south wall at that time, and then left the courtyard. Could it be that he was on the south wall and he got some clues?

However, the two of them had carefully investigated the situation there and found no useful clues. Both of them were extremely curious about this issue.

"To put it simply, it's just a matter of blessing to the soul, and it's just something I feel occasionally. Of course, I'm not sure that's the answer.

But when I was looking for clues at the courtyard wall, I suddenly felt that the whole environment was too quiet. There was not even a sound of insects in the bamboo forest.

From beginning to end, there was not a single bird visible in the sky. That kind of silence is actually normal for a secret realm. After all, the space is different. You can just think of it as a dead zone.

But if you stay in the bamboo forest for a long time, you will feel more and more that the life on the green bamboo is more and more incompatible with the silence reflected in the entire courtyard..."

Li Yan didn't hide anything about this, so he quickly explained a few words.

After he stayed in the bamboo forest for a while, he felt more and more uncomfortable because of a certain atmosphere.

Li Yan has stayed in Small Bamboo Peak for a long time, and his understanding of the bamboo forest may not be comparable to that of the two girls.

Li Yan After reacting, he found that the bamboo forest in the courtyard was too quiet. This quietness seemed to be deliberately created, rather than truly natural.

That was because there were no insects and birds in the bamboo forest. Li Yan immediately checked the ground. He couldn't find even an ant on the ground in the courtyard.

I think the two girls Ming Qi must have noticed this situation, but as Li Yan said, if you understand this place as a dead zone, you won't find anything strange at all.

But any space like a secret realm is different or even completely different from the space you are in. People who enter it will feel that it is full of otherness or weirdness.

And after Li Yan observed the sky, they didn't find a single bird flying by. They had ignored all of this before, as if someone deliberately kept this place absolutely quiet.

Then Li Yan thought of the role of scarecrows. When he was a child in a mountain village, he had stabbed many scarecrows and then placed them in the fields.

The purpose is very simple, of course, to drive away birds from eating rice grains.

Combined with the abnormal tranquility in the courtyard, Li Yan guessed that the answer to the Scarecrow's question was to drive away outsiders who disturbed the place.

But out of worry, he added words to scare away the birds, and the last words he said to the scarecrow were very brief.

"Drive away all birds and those who disturb your peaceful dreams!"
