Heart-pounding every step

  Fang Yun stepped forward calmly and unhurriedly, taking one step ahead. The crowd followed suit, also taking a step forward.

  At this time, those skulls were less than thirty meters away from them, and they were about to kill them. Everyone held their weapons in their hands, ready to fight to the death.

  But then something inexplicable happened. The ground where the skulls were suddenly rose up in endless flames, and those skulls instantly turned to ashes.

  The fierce flames came even more suddenly, so that everyone didn't think of it. Fang Yun hummed: "Take a wrong step, and your fate will be the same as these dead spirits."

  Everyone hastily gathered their spirits and didn't dare to be distracted in the slightest, closely following Fang Yun's footsteps.

  "The universe has its laws, and outside of it, three principles are in operation. The receptive and the creative have no fixed order, and from them, all things arise."

  Fang Yun calculated the position of the formation in his heart. This formation was not set up by him, so he needed to calculate the position himself. The formation changed every moment, and each position would change after a period of time. They couldn't stay in one place for too long and had to keep moving.

  Breaking this formation is easy, but if the formation is broken, those skull spirits will come to kill, so Fang Yun needs to do this, trapping himself and others at the same time, also blocking those skulls.

  Many people's minds rose with all kinds of doubts, the skulls around, none of which approached a certain range, the sky or the ground, would appear hail, storms, flames, thick smoke, and even swords.

  Where did these things come from? They cast their eyes on Xiao Er, and Xiao Er hesitated for a long time before finally opening his mouth to ask: "Fang Yun young master, is this what I made earlier?"

  Xiao Er had already thought of this - if he could leave this place alive, in the future as long as he set up a formation, no enemy would be worth worrying about.

  Fang Yun seemed to know Xiao Er's thoughts and reminded him, "This formation can deal with people who are weaker than you, but if the opponent is extremely powerful, even if they enter the formation, it won't be able to harm them in the slightest. Moreover, if their strength surpasses yours, they can take your life from over a hundred meters away."

  "What if it's someone weaker than me?" asked Xiao Er.

  "It won't work, either being trapped to death in the formation or being destroyed by the killing array." Fang Yun didn't hide it, since he had passed on this Tian Gou Ba Gua Formation to Xiao Er, he would naturally inform him of its pros and cons.

  "How many people can?"

  "It depends on whether you know how to maintain the formation, just like this formation you've set up now, it can last at most half a day. After half a day, the formation's energy will dissipate and the formation will naturally disperse."

  Everyone listened with increasing astonishment, perking up their ears to listen to the conversation between the two. Xiao Er looked at Boss Niang and said, "Master Fang Yun, can I teach others?"

  Fang Yun smiled: "Even if you teach them, it will take at least ten years for them to master this formation. This amount of time is enough for your Dou Qi to advance one stage."

  Xiao Er suddenly understood, indeed as Fang Yun said, the complexity of this Tianwen Bagua formation was far more complicated than a secret recipe. If it wasn't for Fang Yun's strange method that allowed him to obtain this memory, he might not have been able to learn it even in ten years.

  Everyone's face was filled with strange expressions, and a hint of disappointment. If they could learn this, they wouldn't have to be human traffickers anymore. Any faction or empire would welcome them with open arms.

  As the formation was activated, the skulls and bones around them had piled up like mountains. Except for those that were burned to ashes, the rest were all piled up together. The crowd watched with bated breath, but their hearts were filled with joy and relief, finally escaping disaster.

  As the sky gradually brightened, Fang Yun also let out a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, we've passed the darkest moment."

  The yin energy in the Duanhun Gorge gradually dissipated, and the moonlight in the sky was hazy. At the other end of the Duanhun Gorge, you could see the dawn breaking across the horizon. With insufficient yin energy, some skulls self-destructed, while others took a few steps before turning to dust.

  Fang Yun also let out a sigh of relief. He spent the whole night walking around the Tianfu Bagua formation, calculating life and death at every turn, his mental energy greatly depleted.

  This Tian Gang Bagua formation is the simplest formation method. If you want to crack it, it's just a matter of an instant, but Fang Yun can't crack it and has to keep calculating.

  At this time, the Eight Trigrams Formation also gradually lost its effect after running out of energy.

  Everyone's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally put down heavily. Just looking at Fang Yun's eyes, they had already become reverent. With two fingers stopping a giant skull's full-force blow, he single-handedly blocked hundreds of giant skulls. At the same time, using a strange method, he taught Xiao Er a magical array.

  If Fang Yun is not there, even if they are ten times more people, they will probably lose their lives and souls.

  "Fang Yun young master, teach me magic array." Suddenly, Xiao Er spoke up and said.

  "I don't accept disciples, I only accept kitchen staff." Fang Yun said with a smile.

  "I...". The shop assistant turned his head and glanced at the three of them, including the boss's wife. He was reluctant in his heart: "Let's just forget it."

  "Never mind, I won't force you either. But I'm curious, with your skills, it's not like you'd be human traffickers." Fang Yun asked doubtfully.

  Xiao Er wanted to speak but stopped, the other three also showed a difficult expression. Fang Yun said: "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you, but you should know that what you've done is not glorious, next time if I hear about you doing this kind of thing again, I won't show mercy."

  Fang Yun was not all good in his previous life either. He had also been a bandit and an outlaw.

  No matter when and where, he adhered to his four commandments: never to break up a marriage, never to destroy a family, never to humiliate a virtuous woman, and never to kill the loyal and good.

  And when I was a mountain bandit, I only took money and goods, but never hurt anyone's life. In all things, leave a thread of connection, so that we can meet again in the future.

  As for encountering wicked people, Fang Yun is a mood-based person. He has always been a natural and casual person, never considering himself as a good person, so he won't force others to be good either. However, if someone does evil in front of him, he won't ignore it.

  "Walking on the night road many times, you will inevitably meet a ghost." Fang Yun said calmly: "This time you met me, next time you meet someone else, they'll directly wipe you out."

  The four of them fell silent, and after a brief moment, they nodded slightly. At this moment, they completely believed that Fang Yun was their ghost.

  The butcher suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell to the ground without warning, his body convulsing uncontrollably.

  The three of them immediately panicked and exclaimed as they helped the butcher up: "Butcher, what's wrong with you?"

  "The injuries from last night have finally erupted, and it's uncertain whether this life can be preserved." Fang Yun said with a glance.

  "Master Fang Yun, please save the butcher." The three of them knelt down in front of Master Fang Yun, it's hard to imagine that a human trafficker would have such humanity.

  In Fang Yun's imagination, human traffickers are all selfish and inhumane, and would not care about the lives or deaths of their companions.

  "Master Fang Yun, as long as you can save the butcher, I am willing to follow you for a lifetime and be your cook." The little servant begged.

  "This kind of promise I don't need." Fang Yun walked to the butcher's side, touched the butcher's chest, lifted the butcher's arm, and flipped open the butcher's eyelids: "Except for external injuries, bilateral comminuted fractures, flesh almost collapsed, internal organs damaged, but the injury is not serious, just both hands are useless, unfortunately, surgery cannot be performed now."

  Fang Yun has studied both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. In the 18th century, he went abroad to study Western medicine and continued to pay attention to it for over a hundred years afterwards.

  It has to be said that the gap between traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine is indeed there. The main reason why traditional Chinese medicine is lagging behind is that no one is studying it, and those who are studying it are few in number, so naturally there is less further research being done. Now, all of traditional Chinese medicine is based on things from hundreds or thousands of years ago - even if the things our ancestors did were good, they can't possibly never be surpassed. In contrast, Western medicine is constantly innovating as technology advances.

  If more people learn traditional Chinese medicine and study it, then traditional Chinese medicine will also have better development.

  "Master Fang Yun, can the butcher's hands be saved?" The crowd looked at Fang Yun with bated breath.

  "Never mind, send Buddha to the west." Fang Yun turned his head and hooked his finger at Xiao Er.
