Volume 1: The Rise of the East Chapter 36: Mysterious Assassination
It is almost night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.
After a hurried journey through the valley for about an hour, the three of them came to a place that resembled a basin.
By the bright moonlight, Moyang found that the area was slightly higher and covered with towering ancient trees, and there was a small lake in the lower part of the terrain, which was overgrown with water and grass. Beyond the aquatic plants is an open gravel field, and a bonfire is burning in the middle.
There was a fire, but no one.
Mo Yang looked around, stretched out a finger to his mouth, and motioned for Chu Ruochen and Chu Yingxue to continue to lurk and not make a sound.
The three of them watched for about half a pillar of incense, and Mo Yang suddenly found that there seemed to be floating objects in the lake, and it was actually two people after a closer look.
Mo Yang's face changed slightly, and a bad premonition came to his heart.
Immediately, no longer hidden, the aura wrapped the whole body, and quickly stepped into the lake like a meteor, and the two people in the lake were scooped up in a few moments. Subsequently, Mo Yang probed with his hand and found that the two of them had no life at this moment.
The three people by the fire were slightly red from the bonfire at this time, but their hearts were cold.
Seeing this, Chu Yingxue and Chu Ruochen almost exclaimed. At this time, he was hiding beside Mo Yang, looking at the motionless two people on the ground in horror.
"The two people who were killed were from the Wu family in the west of the city, Wu Yifan and Xiao Ran. At noon, we had just met, and who would have thought that Huang Quan's life would have been lost at this time......"
"Brother Mo, were these two people killed by demonic beasts......
Although Chu Ruochen was a fifth-grade cultivator of the Three Realms Spirit Realm, after all, it was the first time he had seen someone killed. At this moment, his whole body was trembling a little, and after glancing at the two miserable situations on the ground, he hurriedly turned his head back to Mo Yang's back, and asked questions in a trembling voice.
"There are no sword wounds on these two people, it seems that they were killed by a sneak attack, it should not be the work of the monster, and the person who committed the poison is someone else. ”
"Brother, how can there be anyone else in the Thunder Valley besides our trial disciples...... Are you mistaken...... Could it be that Yu Gongying did it......"
Although Chu Yingxue was apprehensive at this time, she still held on a little boldly, and asked in a subtle voice like a mosquito.
"Yu Gongying thinks of himself as high and will not harm the lives of the two. Besides, if Yu Gongying wants to kill two fourth-grade and fifth-grade cultivators of the Spirit Realm in a row without using spiritual weapons, and does not give the two of them a chance to escape by crushing the fish-patterned jade pendant, I'm afraid it will be a little more difficult......"
After saying this, Mo Yang's heart shook slightly, as if he already had an answer.
With such a one-hit killing method, the victim didn't even have time to crush the fish-patterned jade pendant...... Except for the Ruan City Lord of Liuli City, who else would have such strength? Moreover, in order not to leave clues, the assassin was not even useful for the spirit sword.
Thinking of this, a cold light suddenly appeared in Mo Yang's eyes. Ghost Gate, Ruan Tiansi, really good means!
Assassination at night, in the right place. Even if you don't succeed, you can take advantage of the night to retreat without leaving a trace. Even if someone finds out, they can all be pushed to the monster.
The Wujia trial team is three people, and two of them are dead at this moment, so where did Wu Jinyou go?
While hesitating, Mo Yang suddenly noticed a slight noise in the woods high up, and his breath did not look like a demonic beast.
"Who is Your Excellency?"
Mo Yang's face was calm, his eyes became more and more sharp, and a flick of his hand The Immortal Dragon Gong had appeared in the palm of his hand.
The people in the woods saw that it was Mo Yang and the others at this time, and hurriedly ran down from the height while crying and shouting.
"Ugin You?"
Under Mo Yang's closer look, this person was Wu Jinyou.
Wu Jinyou stumbled to the fire, saw Wu Yifan and Xiao Ran, who had no breath, and knelt down, his eyes were blank and his eyes were dull, and after a while, the cry sounded, neither daring to shout loudly, but also difficult to suppress his grief, crawling on the two of them and convulsing continuously.
Seeing this, Chu Yingxue and Chu Ruochen also had red eyes, and tears were always rolling in their eyes. After all, they are in the same city, belong to the same college, and they are also considered to be the same door, although there are stumbles on weekdays, but they will never hurt each other's lives.
The person who did it was really vicious and ruthless!
The three of them cried for a while, their voices getting quieter, and Mo Yang slowly spoke.
"Wu Jinyou, what the hell is going on?"
After a long time, Wu Jinyou wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and still couldn't help but twitch while slowly recalling, "After we separated, the three of us found this depression for the night for safety, and just raised the bonfire before saying a few words, a black shadow instantly killed, and successively assassinated my cousin Wu Yifan and Keqing Xiao Ran with two consecutive blows, and then attacked me. In a hurry, I hurriedly crushed the fish-patterned jade pendant, thinking that it would be taken out of the valley by the magic circle in an instant...... Who knows......"
Mo Yang's face tightened, "What?"
"I didn't go out of the valley, and when I looked closely, I found that I was still in the valley...... It's just an instant move out of five miles. Although his life was saved for the time being, I am afraid that there will be no chance to get out of this Thunder Valley again......"
After speaking, he could no longer suppress his despair and grief, and began to cry.
Hearing this, Mo Yang put this fish-patterned jade pendant in his hand. I saw that there was indeed a surge of spiritual light on it, which did not seem to be fake. If this jade pendant is only used for teleportation, and it will not be taken out of the valley in an instant at all, then it seems that the mystery is here.
When he was at the Dust Edge Peak, he deliberately took out the gift in front of everyone to try the disciples, in order to hide people's eyes. At this moment, even if all the people of the trial were killed in the valley, the four masters would not suspect that it was dusty, and would only think that it was done by high-level demonic beasts. This fish-patterned jade pendant is just to confuse everyone.
The more Mo Yang thought about it, the more he felt that under the dusty and kind eyes, there was another face hidden that was extremely sinister and cunning, which was simply terrifying!
"Isn't it okay to end the trial now?"
When Chu Ruochen heard this, he also replied with some frustration, "Unless someone gets the Feng Ling Fruit, there will be no entry and exit prohibition exits in the valley...... And as long as ten days have passed, I'm afraid that even Dean Chen outside the valley will not be able to open the ban again...... Now that the trial has only been a day, and the outside does not know the situation in the valley, it will definitely not be categorically opened...... After all, in their eyes, we all have fish-patterned jade life savers. I'm afraid that now, even if the ten-day deadline is reached, the ban outside the valley will not be opened on its own initiative......"
Mo Yang was shocked after hearing this, and then the corners of his mouth rose, and he secretly thought, I'm afraid that the trial period was originally more than ten days...... Otherwise, how could Nguyen Thien Si, who was in charge of the assassination, get in early and leave late? When did this big lie begin?
Wu Jinyou saw that Mo Yang was still smiling at this moment, and he didn't look serious at all. He said angrily, "Master Mo, everyone is going to die in the valley, how can you still laugh......
"It's a bit too early to say something discouraged. Since the assassin doesn't want us to leave the valley, then we must find the phoenix spirit fruit, which is our only hope out of the valley. ”
After hearing this, Chu Yingxue and Chu Ruochen nodded silently. Although I don't know what Moyang relies on when he says this, every time Moyang will bring confidence to everyone.
"How many days does it take for the Phoenix Spirit Fruit to ripen?"
"Based on past experience, it will take about three to four days. ”
"These days, we're treading carefully. Under the night attack of the assassin, there is still a living mouth, and I am afraid that he will not act rashly again...... Perhaps, he will wait for us at the Feng Lingguo, wait for work, and then catch them all. ”
"Brother Mo, what should we do then?"
Mo Yang smiled slightly, and said with a mysterious face, "The soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it." If someone wants to kill us, of course we have to treat them the way they do......"
