Chapter Twenty-Five: The Shadow of the Suspicious Murderer (Adding to the Helmsman's Silence)

In the historical process of the human race, it is divided into three important periods, the long barbaric period, the 5,000-year Yuan Ling martial arts period, and the end of the law period.

During the barbaric period, the living environment of human beings was extremely harsh, and they were facing death at any time.

Until human beings created martial arts and stepped into the Yuan Ling period. During this period, human beings began to use aura to cultivate martial arts, enhance their strength, and fight against all kinds of harsh environments and brute beasts, and their survival was greatly improved.

As for the end of the Dharma era, although the aura has dried up, the human race has completely controlled the continent and realized the Datong world.

Li Jizong's historical era now, from the beginning of the Yuanling civilization has passed two thousand and twenty years, after more than two thousand years of exploration, pioneering and innovation, human beings in martial arts, the use of aura has seen a milestone leap forward, whether it is exercises, martial arts, or alchemy, refining, formation, beast control and other fields have emerged many talented geniuses, driving the unprecedented prosperity of martial arts aura civilization.

Ban Chan, a female historian of later generations, called this special historical period - the era of the hundred emperors of the princes, and the most brilliant era of martial arts thought and aura culture, and the shining stars.

In this era, countries coexisted, hundreds of emperors contended, and sects were numerous. It is both prosperous and turbulent, civilized and barbaric......

The constant collision and fusion caused the entire Yuanling Continent to be divided into five domains.

The academy where Li Jizong is now is located is in the Heavenly Star City under the jurisdiction of a country called Miyue County in the Eastern Regions.

There are many cities under each county, and Star City is just one of the inconspicuous ones.

Because of its unique geographical location, Tianxing City is in a safe corner, and under the governance of the city lord, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and it has been peaceful for many years, and there has been no major turmoil.

Leaving the library pavilion, it was still early before lunch, and after thinking about it, Li Jizong decided to go out and have a look.

Bird & Bird College is located in the eastern suburbs of Star City. Originally, it was a desolate place, but because the largest college was built on this site, it promoted the development of the surrounding area, and rows of buildings rose from the ground, and the shops were lined with people.

Li Jizong shuttled through the crowd, wandered around for a while, was bored, and suddenly thought of a place to go.

Yesterday, he accidentally discovered the two elements of herbal liquid and earth spirit sand. These substances have long been extinct in the later life, but he did not expect to come to this world, but they were easily obtained, which made him extremely happy.

However, these two elements are not enough, unless the other three can be assembled.

The main purpose of his trip this time was to see if he had such good luck, but unfortunately he didn't get anything. So, he suddenly remembered the Xuanwu Trading House that Zhang Zongyang had mentioned.

The Xuanwu Trading House sells all kinds of treasures, and you may be able to find something.

It's good to have nothing to do, but to take a look. Xuanwu Commercial House is well-known in Star City, and it is easy to find out. After passing through several streets, I came to a huge building, and I saw that the four big characters "Xuanwu Commercial Bank" were written on the plaque.

"It is a thousand-year-old shop, and the handwriting is exactly the same as that of later generations. ”

Li Jizong walked in without hesitation.

I saw that the lights inside are bright, the decoration is elegant, the environment is elegant, and the clerks in the store are all well-dressed and polite, so that customers can enjoy a very wonderful shopping experience as soon as they come in.

The items in the store are categorized in detail, and you can go directly to the corresponding counter if you need any items.

Li Jizong roamed between the counters and found that the items sold such as elixirs and spiritual liquids were not only of extremely low grade, but also of extremely poor quality, almost all of which were eliminated by later generations.

It's not surprising to think about. Celestial Star City is located in a remote area, there are not many strong people, and the refining technology is even more backward.

However, for the current martial arts cultivators, it is still enough to use.

Li Jizong glanced at it casually, didn't stay long, and continued to walk towards the inner floor of the sales hall. Along the way, I saw almost all the counters, but unfortunately I never found what I wanted.

It seems that these elements are not available everywhere, and they are not available.

Li Jizong was inevitably a little disappointed. At this time, I heard a crisp and beautiful woman's voice say, "Hello this son, is there anything I can help with?"

It was a female clerk, about 20 years old, with a delicate face and fair skin.

Li Jizong wanted to quietly find out alone, but since it was fruitless, the female clerk took the initiative to come over to greet him, so it was better to ask casually. So, he asked, "I'm tired, I don't know if you have snow crystals, ancient stones and cold wood ...... in your shop."

The female clerk smiled professionally and nodded, "Yes." ”

Li Jizong was surprised and delighted, and said, "All three?"

"Yes. The female clerk said: "Our store has always had the first reputation, I dare not deceive the child, if the son wants, I can take you to see the goods." ”

"Then there's work. Li Jizong thanked him.

The female clerk led the way in front, turned a few bays, opened a door, turned around and smiled sweetly, and said, "Childe, it's here, please." ”

Li Jizong hesitated for a moment, and then followed inside.

As soon as I entered, there was a "bang", and the door was closed, and the latch was inserted.

The female clerk's smile narrowed, and her eyes stared coldly at Li Jizong.

"Sure enough, it lied to me. Li Jizong was slightly startled.

In fact, when the female clerk said that there was a stock, he had doubts. You know, the names of the three items he spoke of were all names of later generations. The first two words of each object are the names of the people who found them. This principle is the same as that of Luoyacao. When he realized that something was wrong and was about to change his words, the female clerk did not hesitate to say that the store had goods, and there were all three, which was obviously a bit unreasonable.

But why did the female clerk lie to him?

So he didn't expose it on the spot, but wanted to see what the other party's purpose was.

At this time, it is not difficult to see from the cold gaze of the female clerk that she is likely to have an enmity with herself.

As for what kind of hatred and what kind of grudge...... MMP, then you have to ask about the predecessor of this body!

However, if this female clerk knew her predecessor, she probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to come over and deceive him, right?

Unless she concludes that "Li Jizong" is unlikely to recognize her.

Well, there are only two possibilities!

One possibility is that "Li Jizong" once indirectly offended her, but he didn't know it, and the other possibility is that this girl is standing up for others......

In an instant, Li Jizong's mind appeared with the figure of the mysterious murderer hidden in the dark, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he was on guard. Although the strength of this female clerk is very average, who can guarantee that there are no other people hiding in this vicinity?

"I've brought the people, come out. ”

Hearing the cold words of the female clerk, Li Jizong's conjecture was confirmed.

If it was just this female clerk, he would not be afraid, but if there was some master lurking in the secret, his situation would definitely be very dangerous.

Just as he was considering whether he should preemptively arrest the female clerk as a hostage, the back door of the hut opened.

A young man of his age walked over, with a childish look on his face: "Sister, thank you." ”

Then he faced Li Jizong, his eyes were immediately full of strong hatred, and said: "Li Jizong, you hurt me so badly, I didn't expect it to fall into my hands, right? ”

As he spoke, he clenched his fists and was about to rush forward to make a move.

His sister hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Mo Hao, your body is still very weak, and it is not suitable to do it for the time being, let me help you teach him a lesson." ”

Under her anger, she released a powerful momentum, and her strength cultivation reached the late stage of the Tongxuan Realm.

The long weakness can't help but be windy, but the cultivation is not weak. Zhang Zongyang may not be his opponent.

Mo Hao's face was full of confidence: "Sister, don't worry, my body is almost up to me these days, I may not be able to deal with others, but it is more than enough to deal with Li Jizong, a scumbag." ”

"Yes, then you be careful, just teach him a lesson, but don't beat him to death. ”

Mo Hao's sister Mo Xiaoyun advised.

At this moment, Li Jizong finally figured out what was going on. He had inquired about some of the deeds of his predecessors from Sun Qingyue's mouth, especially who he had sinned. The purpose, of course, was to identify the murderer who had killed the predecessor. Upon inquiry, there are too many people offended by this predecessor to count.

However, it is generally some pranks, although the teeth of being hated are itchy, and they will never kill people for that trivial matter.

The Mo Hao in front of him is the classmate whom "Li Jizong" once offended.

Ten days ago, "Li Jizong" had a few words with Mo Hao, so he secretly put laxatives in his water cup, causing Mo Hao to have a stomach upset, his body was hollowed out, and he was so weak that he couldn't even go to school, and he had been recuperating at home these days.

It's really unfortunate. Li Jizong came to Xuanwu Commercial Bank to buy something today, and happened to be seen by Mo Hao.

So he and his sister Mo Xiaoyun conspired to trick Li Jizong into this dim hut, planning to beat him up and let out a bad breath.

"I won't kill him, but at least let him lie down for ten days and half a month. Mo Hao approached Li Jizong, and then swung his fist and smashed it into Li Jizong's face.

Seeing that it was about to hit, who knew that it was empty.

Mo Haozheng looked puzzled, and suddenly, a hand patted his shoulder, and he saw Li Jizong looking at him with a smile, and said, "It's really disappointing that the punching speed is so slow!"

"Bastard!"

Mo Hao, who was humiliated, was furious, and smashed Li Jizong with a punch again. It's a pity that it was still avoided by Li Jizong lightly.

Li Jizong's cultivation had already broken through to the Qi Spring Realm, and it was easy to avoid Mo Hao's attack.

Mo Hao punched a few times in succession, panting tiredly, but he didn't hit Li Jizong once, and suddenly felt that his self-esteem had been greatly hit, and he roared angrily: "Li Jizong, don't hide if you have the ability." ”

"Okay!"

Li Jizong stood straight ahead, and he didn't move much!

Mo Hao suddenly perked up, and once again slammed a punch into Li Jizong's body. However, the punch still missed. The force was too great, the lower plate was uncontrollable, and after a few steps, he fell to the ground.

I saw Li Jizong holding his hands on his chest and standing leisurely aside.

Mo Hao said angrily: "Li Jizong, how the do you dare to lie to me? Didn't you promise not to hide?"

"Tut-tut, do you have a long brain? If you want to beat me, do you want me not to hide? Do you think I don't have a brain like you?" Li Jizong said with a disgusted expression.

"You ......" Mo Hao was speechless angrily, and after being helped up by his sister Mo Xiaoyun, he was about to rush over again, but was forcibly pulled by Mo Xiaoyun.

"Mo Hao, you are not his opponent. ”

Mo Hao cried with a sad face and said, "Sister, Li Jizong will hide, or you can help me teach him a lesson." ”

Mo Xiaoyun looked at his stupid brother with a sympathetic expression, sighed, and said, "It's also a skill to hide, do you think it's easy? Sister, I'm not his opponent." ”

Mo Hao was stunned: "How is this possible?"
