Volume 3 Different Paths to the Same End Chapter 96 Heavenly Sword Sect
Nanchuan City, Tongfu Inn.
This is one of the largest inns in Nanchuan City.
Although Nanchuan City started by robbing tombs, it relied on the many rare treasures unearthed underground, attracting countless wandering merchants to gather here, and in recent years, it has gradually become the number one commercial city that can be ranked even if you look at the whole country, with all kinds of shops and bazaars dotted, and the inns that provide a foothold for wandering merchants are countless, which has a sense of prosperity and prosperity.
But today, all the wandering merchants who came to the city in search of treasures were shocked to find that something seemed to be wrong. The inn was suddenly full of people, and there were no rooms to rest in, and Nanchuan City seemed to have a large number of outsiders pouring in from nowhere overnight.
Soon, however, the identities of these outsiders became clear.
"Shopkeeper, you didn't lie to me, did you? The remaining 30 rooms are all booked?"
In the Tongfu Inn, a wandering merchant looked incredulous.
"This guest officer, what am I lying to you doing, the store is full, if you want to stay in the hotel, you can only go to the Yuelai Inn to see, there may be a vacant room in his house." The shopkeeper looked helpless.
"Don't talk about the Yuelai Inn, I have run through several famous inns in the city, you are the last one, none of them have a vacant room, ......what is the situation today?
"Shopkeeper Liu, is the room we booked still there?"
A voice suddenly sounded, and a large group of teenagers and girls poured in, talking and laughing.
"In, in. The boss smiled all over his face, turned back to the merchant and said, "Guest, they are the ones who have booked the room, if you want to find them, go to them." ”
"Heavenly ...... Heavenly Sword Sect?" the merchant smiled wryly, "I'd better go to the Yuelai Inn and have a look." ”
The Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the four major righteous sects officially recognized by the Yunyin Empire, together with the Infinite Sect, the Broken Sea Sect, and the String Moon Sect, form the four main sects of the Righteous Alliance.
On the surface, it seems that non-people in the rivers and lakes do not need to be afraid of this so-called righteous general alliance, but in fact, since the first war of the evil emperor 600 years ago, the status of the four righteous factions has been unprecedentedly improved, and the emperor at that time clearly issued an edict to give the four righteous factions only less law enforcement power than the Shen Criminal Division. This also means that even if the four righteous factions have the power of life and death for ordinary people and even local officials, once they are identified as evil demons and crooked ways, even if they are the head of a county, they will face the risk of being punished by the devil.
However, the latter is generally only theoretically possible, and the four righteous factions will not bypass the Criminal Justice Division and directly attack the bureaucrats of good character unless they have to. In today's imperial situation, the power of the great clans is intertwined, and even the four righteous factions at the head of the Jianghu sect do not dare to stir up this troubled water. But for ordinary people and petty officials, the four decent factions are still quite deterrent.
"Then thank you, shopkeeper. The young man at the head smiled gently.
"Senior brother, I finally have a chance to come out alone, can't you go out with me?" A petite and delicate girl jumped out and hugged the young man's arm and said coquettishly.
"Senior sister, I'm tired if you're not tired, I came to this Nanchuan City across half an empire, I just want to sleep well in bed now. The young man smiled bitterly, "Why don't you let Senior Brother Zizheng accompany you on a trip, I really can't move." ”
The girl let out an "oh" in disappointment.
"Senior sister......" Another young man in a Taoist robe stood up with a cower.
But the girl turned and walked upstairs as if she didn't see it.
The young man known as "Senior Brother" ...... shook his head helplessly and patted the latter's shoulder.
"Senior brother, I'm fine. Lu Zizheng also shook his head, and then came over as if he had thought of something, "Senior brother, Nanchuan Taishou has already sent a message, inviting us to Nanchuan Mansion this afternoon to gather. ”
"Tsk......" the young man narrowed his eyes, "Is there any news from the other three factions?"
"I'm afraid we're the last of the four righteous sects to come to this Nanchuan City. Lu Zizheng said, "The other three factions are moving far faster than we imagined, and as far as I know, the four major factions will be present at this afternoon's banquet." ”
"What do you mean......"
"If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid the news of the Evil Emperor's relics has been leaked. Lu Zizheng frowned slightly.
"That's to be expected. The young man said, "After all, once the news of the Evil Emperor's tomb spreads, some people will naturally think of the Evil Emperor's relics. ”
“…… But Senior Brother, don't you think this news spread a little too fast? Our Heavenly Sword Sect has been searching for the Evil Emperor Relic for more than 600 years to find such a little bit of news, and the result is that it will be known to passers-by in less than two days, isn't this a bit ......?"
"Okay, I know what you're going to say. Now is not the time to talk about this. The young man interrupted him, "You go and inform the juniors and disciples to get ready, and then send a few people out to beat him up by the way." ”
“…… Be. ”
……
Meanwhile.
"Shura Valley......" Geng Zhi looked at the unfathomable valley fixedly.
The yin wind whistled out from the bottom of the valley, blowing the corners of Geng Zhiming's clothes to the sound of hunting.
On the walls of the valley, eight big scarlet characters are impressively visible. But it was clear that no one understood the bloody warning.
But what's interesting is that the only intruder who came out alive in 300 years went crazy after selling the blood spirit flower, and spent the rest of his life begging on the streets, but whenever others wanted to ask him something, he would only mumble a sentence, repeating the eight big characters engraved in blood outside this Shura Valley:
"Shura hell is not accessible to mortals. ”
Geng Zhiming took a deep breath. Even if this valley leads to hell, he must break through.
Just when Geng Zhiming had already stepped into the Shura Valley with half of his feet, a scream suddenly exploded!
