Chapter 884 Suck the Soul of the Scriptures
"City Lord, the old man has to report that someone is hanging in the city. As the song of the sword became louder and louder, all the guests who stayed overnight walked out of their rooms. They gathered together to enjoy the sword dance of Shushan. Qian Youqian said ruthlessly to Yan with a smile.
Just last night, everyone also saw this mysterious city lord for the first time, Yan Wuru. Although he is still shrouded in black robes, he also has a good conversation.
"You should react to the black impermanence in this matter, this is his business. The lord of this city doesn't care about such trivial matters. This sword song sounds quite bluffing. Yan said ruthlessly. With the rise of the Tang Dynasty, for some reason, the offensive on the Qin family's side seemed to have eased a lot. Although I don't know the reason, it doesn't prevent him from being a lot more relaxed, and he will take advantage of his free time to go out for a walk. The most important thing is that Yan Wuchang has already begun to improve.
"I only saw the rising sun in the east, a round of rising sun, but it didn't happen to disturb the rules of Lingcheng like you said. Black Impermanence said.
A sword dance lasted for a quarter of an hour, and even attracted many onlookers. Many people see that it is not a morning exercise, but a feeling, which belongs to the feelings of Shushan. All the disciples who participated in the sword dance had an indescribable feeling, which was the cohesion of Shushan. The center of this cohesion is the figure standing at the front, standing at the top.
It was close to noon, and all the guests were gone. It was the people of the Sword Hall who stayed. Five people came to the Sword Palace, and the leader was an old man, known as Sword Seven. It's just that after sitting down, he looks like he wants to say something.
"Seventh Elder, if you have something, you might as well say it directly. Thank you very much for your help last time. By the way, is Jian Lao still okay?...... this time," Tang Chao said with a smile.
"Alas, he is no more. I don't know why, after the group went back, not long after, they all went mad and committed suicide with their swords. Jian Qi said, unable to hide his sadness.
"Why did you kill yourself? Who did you come into contact with?" asked Tang Chao, puzzled.
"It's all investigated. After the group came back, they went directly to the retreat, saying that they had seen your swordsmanship and had some understanding. Unexpectedly, something happened to this perception. Last month, they were discovered by their disciples, and all of them committed suicide. The only strange thing is that they are all smiling and don't look like they are dying in pain. The old man checked all the corpses, all of them were broken meridians, reversed and died, and it looked like they had gone mad. That's why the old man came to visit, he wanted to ask, among the swordsmanship used by Tang Shao, are there any forbidden swordsmanship that will lead to madness if imitated?" Jian Qi asked in a low voice.
"Most of the kid's swordsmanship is Shushan swordsmanship, and all the disciples have also learned it. As for the other part, there are no sword moves to speak of, they are all transformed by sword intent, and they are free. None of this will drive people crazy. Tang Chao said with a frown.
The old man thought the same. It's just that this thing is too weird, and it's impossible to find out. Although the Sword Hall is not a holy place, it is not a place where people can enter and exit at will. During these days, all the guards were normal, not even a riot. Jian Qi was visibly distressed.
"What did your hall master say?" asked Tang Chao.
"Young Master Tang may not know that the hall master will never show up. Only one of his swords could convey the orders of the hall master, and even the old man had never seen the hall master. However, we have also asked about the saber, and we have not felt anything unusual. Jian Qi said.
"I wonder if I can check the corpse?" asked Tang Chao. Jian Qi nodded and nodded to the few Sword Hall people behind him. Soon, a corpse was carried up. Tang Chao got up, Zhen Yuan took the power of the divine soul, and entered the corpse together to investigate.
As Elder Sword Seven said, this corpse had no internal or external injuries, but the meridians were all shattered from the inside, and it seemed that it was indeed caused by the reversal of the meridians. After Tang Chao checked it, he found a strange problem, this person's spirit was also missing. Going mad and falling into the devil causes the meridians to be reversed, either the cultivation is abolished, or it is reversed by others, and the rest is death. But even so, it doesn't cause the soul to disappear. Tang Chao looked up and saw Jian Qi's concerned expression, without a trace of dodging or weakness, he had already determined that Jian Qi really didn't know about it.
Tang Chao checked for a quarter of an hour, carefully examined all the veins of his body, but found a strange place. In the mouth of the corpse, there was a wound, very small. According to the time calculation, the wound will heal in less than a day at most. But at the moment, it has changed color a little, and it still exists. This indicates that the wound was sustained on the day of his death. The person died, the body was inactive, so this small wound did not heal on its own and changed color. The place where this wound leads is the neck bone, and it is also the place where the meridians and the soul are connected. Judging from the meridians and divine souls, there is no trace of external force entering the collision, so there is only one possibility, extraction. It's just that the Tang Dynasty couldn't figure out what it was that extracted the true element in the meridians that could cause so much damage, and even caused the reversal of the meridians. This suction power is absolutely great.
Tang Chao finished checking and stood up, his guess didn't tell Jian Qi, he just shook his head helplessly. Obviously, the murderer must be someone from the Sword Palace, and he is also a master. If he speaks out, I'm afraid it will cause a bloody storm.
"Seventh Elder, has this happened before?" Tang Chao asked.
"Nope. Never heard of it. Jian Qi thought for a moment, and then said.
"It's really puzzling. The kid couldn't help either. However, Seventh Elder, are you sure that the deceased were all people who had gone to Shu Mountain to help, and all of them died?" asked Tang Chao.
"That's true. The most puzzling thing is why they went crazy at the same time? If there were really people who were more obsessed with Tang Shao's swordsmanship and secretly imitated the past, it was impossible for them to be all like this. Therefore, it should have nothing to do with Tang Shao's swordsmanship. Jian Qi sighed, and then said.
"Please also mourn on the Day of the Seven Elders. If you really want to find out the identity of the murderer, you must notify the boy. The top and bottom of Shu Mountain will definitely help the Sword Hall to blade the murderer. Tang Chao arched his hand, and then said.
"Then don't bother Tang Shao. Jian Qi returned the salute and left with a kind of sword hall person.
"It's definitely about us. The dead are here to help, and they're all dead. There's definitely something wrong with that. Boss, you should be able to see it, right?" Feng Lan said as he watched Jian Qi and the others leave.
"I was sucked dry of the true yuan and the soul of the gods. It seems that they should have been killed at the same time by illusion and without their own consciousness. The man had a sword and stabbed them in the throat in the mouth. The wound was small and secretive, and it looked like the blade was narrow and thin. But in the Sword Palace, this kind of sword is not unusual. I have a hunch that this has something to do with me. It's just that I can't figure out what he wants. Tang Chao said.
"Why don't we go to the Sword Palace?" Kunlun Yu asked. Since it was about the Tang Dynasty, she thought that she must find out.
"It's useless, even if we go, we won't find anything. If he wants to be exposed, then go straight to me. Quietly doing it, it shows that he doesn't want to be exposed, and since that's the case, we can't find out anything when we go. Tang Chao said lightly. "It's useless for us to guess, just wait for him to come out on his own. Let's go, go shopping as planned. Qianqian should also be waking up soon. He said directly.
"My brother guessed accurately. As soon as Tang Chao's words fell, a white shadow floated in with a smile and hugged Tang Chao. "How did my brother know that Qianqian would wake up? Qianqian still wanted to surprise my brother. ”
"He said he was a god, and you would believe it. Kunlun Yu said with a smile on the side.
"Is he gone?" Tang Chao asked suddenly.
"Who?" asked Tang Qianqian with a puzzled expression.
Tang Chao was stunned for a moment and looked directly at Feng Lan. Feng Lan was also stunned, and then quickly nodded.
"Let's go. Let's go, let's go shopping. Tang Chao said. With that, he turned his head sideways and nodded at Feng Lan. Actually, he was really asking Tang Qianqian just now, and what he was asking was the soul. But looking at Tang Qianqian's appearance, she doesn't seem to remember this. He had no choice but to turn directly to Feng Lan, and Feng Lan naturally cooperated directly. It's just that he didn't see it, just when he took the lead and walked out, Tang Qianqian leaned on him coquettishly, wiped away the tears that had not fallen from the corners of his eyes, and still looked innocent.
Lingcheng is indeed very large, and it is also the largest city they have ever seen in the Tang Dynasty. Five men and three women, a group of eight people went directly to the street. Xu Lang and the red ghost were reluctant, but they were directly pulled out by the Tang Dynasty. Each person has given a certain amount of tasks, and the minimum consumption must be spent. Tang Dynasty put his arms around the neck of the red ghost and swept along the street. Looking at the uncomfortable face of the red ghost, Tang Chao found it very interesting. In fact, they know each other the earliest and communicate the least. Red ghosts are silent at all times. I don't open my mouth once for ten days and half a month, and I only have two words every time. Although they basically didn't speak, the Tang Dynasty trusted him a lot at all. The Tang Dynasty didn't care at all about the eyes of others who frequently looked at them, and they took care of the red ghosts and bought things. Since Jia Ruyu's death, he found that he had too little time with these brothers.
Feng Lan looked at the girl with a smile on her face, and even looked at the girl with a dead face. However, as long as the little girl is not shy and looks back directly, he will be directly cowardly. Xu Lang was sitting on the small array, following behind them in the Tang Dynasty, constantly calculating in his hands, trying all kinds of runes. He, like the red ghost, never relaxed, let alone let go of any rest. The three women chattered and looked around, and Feng Lan began to follow them.
Soon after, the Tang Dynasty forced Zeng Xian and the red ghost to buy things one by one. Anyway, there are storage rings, so just install them.
