    After successfully tying eight knots, Shao Xuan practiced several more times before starting to tie the eight knots together.  When Shao Xuan was practicing knotting at the foot of the mountains next to Yingshan Mountain, further away, on the other side of the sea, where the Yi family in Wangcheng was, there was also a serious atmosphere.  After so many years of development, the Yi family has also divided into many branches. The main branch is the main line of the Yi family, which belongs to the line of power. At this time, almost all the people in the main line of the Yi family are staying behind closed doors. In the royal city, on weekdays,  There are always a few high-profile people showing their presence here, but now, no one from the main lineage of the Yi family is seen hanging around outside.  There are many people standing around the Yi family's courtyard wall, all of them slaves and branches of the Yi family. Other than that, no one else can get close.  The divination street in the royal city has become deserted since three days ago. Caravans and traveling trading teams who did not know why came here to divine the recent fortune or predict other things, but nothing happened.  Thinking that they would be in vain, they did not dare to go directly to the Yi family to look for someone. Anyone with some brains could see that something was wrong. Even if they were curious, they just looked at the Yi family's mansion from a distance.  In fact, it is not only the caravans and traveling teams that have come all the way to the royal city, but also the Yi family, there are some young people who do not know the details and the situation. After being assigned tasks, they still look around curiously from time to time. The people in their branch  In fact, I rarely come to the main residence of the Yi family, but this time, everyone from the Yi family came out.  "Dad, why do everyone look so nervous? What do those people in the main line want to do? I heard they are going to start a war with others? Who are they fighting with?" A young man from a branch of the Yi family asked his father beside him.  If it had been in the past, when his father heard someone mentioning someone from the main line, he would definitely say something mean and mean. People from the main line usually yelled at people from their branch lines, but they didn't have a good attitude. It was just the accumulated resentment that they didn't dare to say.  Let it out, just talk about it in private.  But at this time, the young man's father frowned, with deep worry in his eyes. When he heard his son's question, he raised his eyes and lowered his voice and said sternly: "Shut up! Look around, who dares to do this?"  Break in when the time comes and kill!" Hearing his father's attitude, the young man swallowed nervously. He knew that this time was different from the past, and the situation was probably quite serious, but since his father didn't want to say anything to him,  , he did not dare to ask any more questions, stared at the surroundings, and whispered: "Yes!" After saying that, he closed his mouth tightly and stopped making any sound.  In a large courtyard in the center of the Yi family, nearly a hundred people gathered. These are all people from the main line, and they are all quite powerful in the main line. One-third of them are called masters in the royal city.  .  No matter how arrogant they are on weekdays or how they show off outside, here they are just like good students, sitting in their place honestly.  Whether it was the people sitting on the mats on the ground in the center of the yard or the people standing around in other main lines, they were all waiting in silence. It was this kind of waiting that made the atmosphere more solemn, and it was almost breathless.  The sense of depression can be felt by people outside the Yi family.  The sky also became gloomier than before.  Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approached from far away, and the speed was relatively fast, but people could not feel the rush and urgency.  As soon as they heard the footsteps, some people who were wandering in the yard suddenly calmed down.  Eight people came over, and the three people standing at the front were all old men with gray or white hair. They were the elders of the Yi family who usually did not care about worldly affairs. They were the truly senior and powerful elders of the Yi family.  He will only come forward when there are really important matters related to life and death.  Behind the three old men is the current head of the Yi family. From the perspective of the tribesmen, he is a leader-like figure.  Such a person usually speaks the truth in the Yi family, and few people dare to contradict him face to face, but now, he is only the fourth in line. There are three old people in front of him, one is his great-grandmother, and the other two are also very senior people.  When one of the old men called him, he bowed slightly and respectfully walked over to listen.  "Is everyone here yet?" An old man with cloudy white eyes asked aloud without looking at the yard.  Although he cannot see, it does not affect his perception of things in the outside world. Sometimes, he can even see more things than ordinary people.  "Most of them have arrived. Only some who were on missions did not make it back. Yi Cong and Yi Qi are still on another continent at this time, but they should be ready." The head of the Yi family replied  .  "Yeah." The old man was not angry because of this matter. People who were on missions could also participate in the battle anyway.  "Please ask for divination!" The gray-haired old woman standing next to the head of the Yi family said.  When the other two old men nodded, the head of the Yi family said loudly: "Ask for divination!" This is what the Yi family must do every time there is a big event.?The so-called request for divination is to take out the precious thing left by the ancestors, which is a tortoise shell. Some orange-red words and lines are carved on the back of the carapace. The words are not universal words, but can only be read by the Yi family.  He understands the runes, and the lines faintly form the totem of the Yi family.  The plastron, on the other hand, is white without any patterns or etchings.  Within the tortoise shell, in the space between the carapace and plastron, there are some cut and polished bones, eight in total, with different shapes.  ¡°Whose turn is it to divine this time?¡± an old man asked.  The gray-haired old woman turned the crutch in her hand and said, "I was the one who divined the last clan meeting. This time, it's time to change." The old man with cloudy eyes didn't say much, stepped forward and placed the flower in the  The turtle on the stage held up his hands, then returned to his seat and sat down.  On the ground in the center of the yard, the three mats at the front belong to the three of them.  After Yi Yan sat down, he stretched out his right hand and attached it to the back of the tortoise shell. The tortoise shell was larger than his palm. If he grasped it normally, he would not be able to grasp it. But now, the tortoise shell seemed to be adsorbed on Yi Yan's palm.  Same, close to the palm.  Yi Yan flicked his wrist, and the bone fragments inside the tortoise shell suddenly jumped and made a "clatter" impact sound. When he raised his palm forward, not only did the tortoise shell not fall, but the bone fragments inside the tortoise shell also did not fall out of the big gap.  fell, but continued to beat inside the tortoise shell.  The fire appeared, and an arc-shaped fire path appeared in front of Yi Yan. A ball of red and white fire rose up on the other side of the arc-shaped fire path, and behind Yi Yan, three long fire paths were pulled out.  shadow.  Yi Yan stretched out the hand attached to the tortoise shell toward the fire ball in front. As the tortoise shell approached the fire ball, the bones inside the tortoise shell beat more intensely, and the sound became faster and faster.  ¡°Crack, click, click¡± The cracking sound overwhelmed the bone fragments inside the tortoise shell.  Some orange-red cracks appeared on the plastron of the tortoise shell.  When the cracking sound stopped, Yi Yan withdrew his hand and looked at the cracks on the tortoise shell. He had lost his normal vision, but it did not affect his ability to see the cracks on the tortoise shell.  The more he looked, the more serious the expression on Yi Yan's face became, and the more worried the eyes became.  Yi Yan handed the tortoise shell to the other two old men and looked at it. Their expressions were not much better than Yi Yan's.  "It seems that the Yi family will face a tough battle." Yi Liao said.  In fact, the results shown on the cracks are even worse than what Yi Yan said. It is not a hard fight, but a fight to the death!  However, there is a glimmer of life in death, but that glimmer of life is full of variables.  The three old men knew it in their hearts, but they could not tell the results on the turtle shell now. They were worried that it would shake people's hearts before the war.  With a subtle sigh, Yi Tuan said loudly, "Prepare for war!" A powerful wave of power, like a sudden wave of waves, was pulled up from this spacious courtyard. The people standing around the courtyard did not dare to express their anger.  The orange-red flames visible to the naked eye filled the surroundings and rolled around, and the field of vision seen by the naked eye seemed to be distorted.  Clattering Within the tortoise shell, bone fragments collided with the tortoise shell, making a rapid sound. The courtyard seemed to block out all sounds, including the sound of insects, leaves, and human breathing. Everything disappeared. The clattering sound of bone fragments became the only sound in the courtyard.  .  The sound of bone fragments became more and more rapid, until it suddenly stopped.  "Open!" From where Yi Yan was, it seemed like an ancient giant beast suddenly opened its dark mouth and swallowed up everything in the courtyard. The surrounding buildings, people, flowers, plants and trees all disappeared, leaving only  A void.  Of course, these were only seen by the hundreds of people sitting in the courtyard, and the people standing on the edge of the courtyard saw nothing but a large totem in the courtyard and the powerful momentum fluctuations caused by the red flames.  Other than that, there are no big changes.  In the void, everyone's figure became blurred, and only a flaming human figure could be roughly seen. Even the outline became blurred from time to time, and the face could not be seen clearly.  Yi Yan can feel that the person they are waiting for will soon appear. The person who was predicted to be "unlucky" for the Yi family thousands of years ago will soon appear in front of them.  Soon, several figures appeared in the void not far from them. They were people from the Yi family who had not been able to come back.  At another place, as the totem of the Yi family appeared, two figures appeared there.  "Yi Qi, Yi Cong?" Someone in the Yi family recognized them. Even if they couldn't see their faces, they knew their auras.  The Yi family didn¡¯t ask Yi Qi and Yi Cong how things were going over there. Now, except for the upcoming war, everything else didn¡¯t matter.  Why waste time asking about things that are not important?  After getting together, the three old men of the Yi family??Let everyone get used to it first. Some people who are new here may feel uncomfortable, so they show up here in advance.  After waiting for a while, Yi Yan's eyebrows twitched suddenly and he looked at a place in the void.  Not only Yi Yan, the other two old men also looked over there, with obvious defensiveness.  The others who were following behind were stunned for a moment. Could there be someone else coming from that way?  The head of the Yi family was also thinking hard at this time. He couldn't think of anyone else who was out on a mission but didn't show up here. Even if there was, he showed up a little late. Based on this time, how many days should it have been?  People from the Yi family would not make such a mistake.  Excluding these, could the person appearing now be their enemy this time?  "Knot?!" Yi Yan couldn't hide the surprise in his words.  People who are not in the Yi family's headquarters can all tell what method they use to get into this place, based on their abilities.  At this time, the fluctuations over there were not the common techniques of the Yi family, but the rope-tying method that had disappeared for a long time. He was not familiar with knotting divination, but he only knew a little bit about it. He could guess what kind of it it was based on the fluctuations there.  It's just a technique.  Knotted rope?  !  Others in the Yi family were also surprised. ?? Hasn¡¯t there been no one tied up with ropes in the Yi family for a long time?  Why are you here now?  No, there is another person, Yi Xiang, who also knows how to tie ropes. In other words, the person who is about to appear over there, even if he is not Yi Xiang, is probably related to Yi Xiang!  A knotted rope is a kind of grass.  Divination grass, along with Divination Armor and Divination Bones, were once known as the three strongest divination pots of the Yi family. The word "divination pottery" originally came from them.  It is said that the ancestors of the Zhongcao lineage could know what they wanted to know just by picking the grass blades from the mountains.  It's a pity that time flies so fast. How many years have passed, the original complex lineage of Zhencao is finally only supported by the knotted rope line. The other lines have already evolved, more or less other material aids have been added, and some have even absorbed divination.  The elements of armor and bone divination create other new methods, and the knotted rope system is also considered to be the most conservative, stubborn, and unreasonable system. At the same time, it is also the poorest system, because the knotted rope system,  They have no concept of money and no material pursuits. No matter how much money they give to people they don't like, they will not help them, so they are gradually squeezed out, ****, destitute, and in decline.  The last master of the Jie Sheng sect died a thousand years ago. What made many people in the Yi family gnash their teeth was that the master of the Jie Sheng sect accepted an apprentice before his death. That master only had one apprentice in his life.  , and that person is Yi Xiang, the thorn stuck in the throat of the Yi family.  When Yi Xiang left that year, he also took away the inheritance of the knot rope system left by that master.  Since then, there has been no orthodox knotted rope divination in the Yi family.  The knotted rope divination disappeared, but that did not have much impact on the Yi family. The descendants of the Yi family created more powerful divination methods.  Knowing that the other party came through the knotting method, the first thing that everyone thought was, "There is a traitor?!" "Yi Qi, Yi Cong, who were you with before you came here?" Yi Tong suddenly asked.  Yi Qi and Yi Cong were stunned by Yi Xun's question. They didn't understand why Yi Xun asked these questions. Could it be that Yi Xun was doubting the two of them?  Suspect them of rebellion?  That's not right. Although Yi Yan's questioning voice was stern, it was not directed at the two of them. This was not the tone used to treat traitors.  Several people flashed through Yi Qi's mind, including Shao Xuan's figure in the end, but he firmly denied it.  It's definitely not that tribesman. It's impossible for the tribesmen to master the core things of their Yi family.  Yi Cong was also thinking in his mind. The first thing that flashed in his mind was the words "Yan Jiao Shao Xuan", but he didn't believe it, so he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.  Soon, the fluctuations there became more and more obvious, and there were even fires coming out, which meant that a figure would appear there soon. However, unlike the Yi family, there was no totem of the Yi family appearing there.  Before Yi Cong and Yi Qi appeared, a Yi family totem composed of fire flames would appear under their feet.  What does it mean that there is no totem of the Yi family?  The other party is not even from the Yi family!  Yi Xiang is also a member of the Yi family. He has the blood of the Yi family in his body. This will not happen. So, who is coming?  A guess in Yi Cong's mind suddenly increased to 80% possibility, "Shao Xuan? Is it Shao Xuan from the Yanjiao Tribe!?" What?  !  Tribal people?  !  Or are they from the Flaming Horn tribe?  !  Even the three leading figures were shaken suddenly. If one could see the expressions on their faces, they would definitely be full of shock and disbelief.  ¡° If the person who spoke was not Yi Cong, the rest of the Yi family would have been reprimanded long ago. But Yi Cong, a genius of the younger generation, is not usually a person who talks nonsense and does not make random speculations.  Everyone in the Yi family was either shocked or in disbelief.At this time, the fire there was getting bigger and bigger. It was different from the color of the Yi family's fire flame, but red, but there was still no totem.  The firelight finally condensed into a figure. The figure was very blurry, much blurrier than any person in the Yi family, and it even seemed like it might disperse at any time.  "This breath" Yi Qi looked over there, as if he was shaken by a dull bell, "Flame Horn Shao Xuan!"
