Chapter 218 [Conspiracy Attack]
"Who did it" Zhuo Zichen and Incompetent seemed to agree with Mu Feng's idea after thinking for a while, if that Saint Rank powerhouse wanted to destroy the door, these people would not have a chance to resist at all, and the only explanation was that there must be a huge black hand behind the whole thing. [S. just love to read]
Mu Feng faintly felt a little uneasy, he could already feel that there was an invisible black hand pushing them forward beside them all the time, they were just pawns on the chessboard, it seemed that a huge conspiracy was brewing around them.
No wonder they felt so quiet before, Mu Feng couldn't have imagined it, they just wanted to leave the miasma full of miasma and poisonous mist to find a place with better air to rest, but there were only two abrupt mountains in the place where the Ancient Sword Sect was located within a radius of dozens of miles from the miasm, and they felt a little strange when they came here, and they always felt that something was missing.
"That person~" Xia Ruolan pointed to the small stone platform in front of the Ancient Sword Pavilion that had collapsed not far from the opposite side and said in surprise.
Looking in the direction of her finger, she saw a man in a blue robe with his back to them standing motionless on the stone platform, his robe swaying from side to side with a light breeze.
Where can there be a person surrounded by corpses, and there is only one person standing, that person is the murderer
The suspicious crowd remained vigilant and cautiously approached the stone platform, and Zhuo Zichen and Wuyi took the lead in jumping up after approaching the stone platform, flying out of the air for more than ten meters and standing in front of the person.
However, after the two fell in front of the man, they remained motionless for a long time and did not react, Mu Feng and the two women under the stone platform were surprised, and hurriedly rushed out in front of the two.
When Mu Feng saw the specific appearance of this standing person, he also gasped, and he felt a tingling feeling on his scalp, and turned his head to look at the incompetence beside him with a look of disbelief, his incompetence frowned, and his expression became extremely solemn.
When he saw this person's appearance clearly, he knew why the two of them had not reacted after jumping out, this was the corpse of a young disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect, a long sword was inserted upside down in his abdomen, the hilt of the sword was on the ground to support his corpse and did not fall to the ground, but his neck was pinched and deflated and recessed into a large section, and his eyes were full of horror and death.
What was even more horrible was that the entire palm of his right hand had been chopped off and fell to the ground, and his blue and white robe had a few lines written in blood on his chest.
"If you see these words, it means that you have killed the waste of Qiu Changsheng, then come to Baiyue Nanshan to find me. If you tell your master about this, you will never want to know the truth of the matter, and I will only give you half a month. ”
Impotent half-squatted and read out the blood book on the corpse's robe word by word, and when he finished reading, everyone frowned and fell silent.
For a while, Mu Feng felt a little chill in his back, what kind of character should the person who left this blood book be, he never expected that their such cautious form was completely expected by an unknown person, and they also left them with this inexplicable but creepy blood book.
"Looks like we've been aware of everything we're doing here," Incompetence said with a frowning brow.
"No, it's fair to say that we've been toyed with all the time." Xia Ruolan frowned slightly, shook her head and replied.
Yin Feng's expression was solemn and he circled around the corpse with the blood book a few times to observe it carefully, and after a while, he still found nothing, and only a few short words were left on the corpse, but they were extremely shocked and even frightened, imagine how you would feel if your every move was designed by someone else
"What is his purpose," Zhuo Zichen got up and said with a gloomy face.
Mu Feng shook his head and replied, "I'm afraid that the people of this Ancient Sword Sect were all killed by the people of the Blood Refining Hall, Qiu Changsheng and the people of the Blood Refining Hall colluded with each other to create blood here, and the person who left this blood book must be the Blood Refining Hall." ”
Seeing that Mu Feng was so sure, Zhuo Zichen also nodded in agreement with his idea, and then frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Since it is the Blood Refining Hall, why did they let us go to Nanshan to worship the moon, and what is the truth of the so-called matter?"
"It's just alarmist, or confusing, but I don't think it's credible." Impotence shook his head and said.
"What do you think" Zhuo Zichen turned his head to look at Mu Feng and the others.
"I think Senior Brother Incompetent is right, the demons of the Blood Refining Hall have always been insidious and cunning, maybe this is an inferior trap, they know that the matter is exposed, so they kill people." Leng Yue nodded and replied.
Xia Ruolan didn't say anything, Bibo Qiushui's eyes looked at Mu Feng, and seeing this, the rest of the people also looked at Mu Feng.
Mu Feng's brows furrowed, and after pondering for a long time, he let out a light sigh and smiled bitterly, "Not really, it is obvious that our every move here is under the eyes of the person who left the blood book, not to mention whether the person who left the blood book is the Blood Refining Hall, even if it is really the person from the Blood Refining Hall, since they are in the same group as the Ancient Sword Sect, why didn't they help the Ancient Sword Sect kill us in the first place, but helped us kill the entire Ancient Sword Sect."
Mu Feng recalled the red-haired boy he had seen, this young man who not only behaved strangely, his strength was unfathomable, but his thoughts were also very paranoid, if this matter was really done by the Blood Refining Hall, there were indeed some possibilities, but there was one point that Mu Feng couldn't figure out, Qiu Changsheng was obviously helping the Blood Refining Hall to do things, but now he suddenly attracted the disaster of annihilation, and it would not be so quick to unload the mill and kill the donkey
"Maybe they're afraid we'll find something in these people." Zhuo Zichen thought for a moment and then said softly, hearing that even he was not too convinced by this explanation.
"At this point, there is nothing to check, before I thought that the whole thing was very likely that the Blood Refining Hall was crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, but then I thought about it carefully, there was no need for them to do this at all."
"The demons of the Blood Refining Hall are ruthless and unpredictable, maybe they just like to do this kind of thing." Leng Yue shook her head and said softly.
"If it's really the people of the Blood Refining Hall, your sect didn't have a grudge against them, since they know that we are dealing with Qiu Changsheng, even if they are sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, but as soon as Qiu Changsheng dies, they can take advantage of our current state to take action and solve us together. If they had tried to kill us, we would have died. Mu Feng frowned and said in a deep voice.
"That's true, but why don't you tell the elders of the sect?"
After listening to Mu Feng's analysis and explanation, the four people in front of them also calmed down a little and thought carefully for a while, and asked more suspiciously.
"I don't know, anyway, it's just that the people who came are not good, in my opinion, the people who killed them are not our allies and friends, and there should be no ill will towards us at the moment." Mu Feng smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders and replied.
"The truth of the matter is that Qiu Changsheng colluded with the Blood Refining Hall to create blood evil with the intention of endangering the common people in the world, what else is the truth and pretending to be a ghost, do you believe it" Incompetence pursed his mouth and waved his hand again and again, obviously he was full of disdain and doubts about the content of this blood book.
Even a person like him, who has cultivated his mind since childhood, can feel from him that he is a little impetuous, not to mention the other three, Mu Feng is also a little upset now, and he finally survived the catastrophe, and now he has encountered such a thing, anyone will feel uncomfortable and troubled.
And the strength of the people who left the blood book must be extraordinary, and when they saw the blood book, they realized that every step of their own way seemed to be led by the nose, how not to make these arrogant people feel unhappy
Mu Feng didn't agree with the incompetent words, smiled bitterly, and waved his hand at him, "I don't think things are so simple anyway, of course I don't mean to slander or question your master, I always feel that there must be something hidden behind this matter." ”
"What's the secret," Zhuo Zichen and Incompetent looked at each other and wondered in unison.
"You think about what kind of strength Qiu Changsheng is, the elders must know more than us, and they are more comprehensive than us, with their strength, just one or two people will settle this matter, why do you have to send us, and this person also said, if we want to know the truth, we go, if we don't want to know, we don't have to go."
"What do you mean" everyone looked at Mu Feng in unison in amazement.
"I think I can go check it out." Mu Feng replied with an indifferent smile.
"You don't want to go back to worship the moon, do you?" Zhuo Zichen frowned, pondered for a moment, and then looked at Mu Feng.
Faced with this question, Mu Feng's body trembled, and a sour feeling surged in his heart, he did have this little Jiujiu, one is that he feels that there are too many doubts and secrets in the whole thing, and he doesn't want to be led by the nose, and the other is that he has his own plan after seeing the four words of Nanshan to worship the moon, that is, to take the incompetent Zhuo Zichen and they go back to worship the moon directly, and enter the palace to kill the thief in the name of a mission
"Hey, Uncle Shi said let me come out to practice, anyway, it's an experience everywhere, since someone wants me to know the truth, then I don't have a reason not to go to the appointment, I won't go back with you to resume my life."
As soon as Zhuo Zichen said this, Mu Feng suddenly frowned, his eyes wandered, and he didn't know what he was thinking, he seemed to see what Mu Feng was thinking, and when the atmosphere was awkward, he stepped forward and said with a calm smile.
Hearing what Incompetence said, Zhuo Zichen seemed to realize that what he said casually just now was a bit out of place, and he frowned slightly and looked sideways at the blood book on the corpse on the side, Xia Ruolan felt a little displeased because of Zhuo Zichen's unobstructed mouth just now, Dai frowned slightly, stepped forward and smiled slightly apologetically at Mu Feng, and said, "Do you think this matter should be told to the elders, or we should just wait here for Yin Feng and them to come back."
Although Xia Ruolan's words are true, they are more about catering to incompetence, and in a few words, they will attract this embarrassing but sensitive topic.
"Stay here and wait for them, the elders will definitely find the blood book when they come, and we don't need to say it at all. But the person who left the book warned us not to let our elders know, otherwise we should never expect to know the truth. Mu Feng pointed to the blood book written in blood on the corpse and replied with an indifferent smile.
"That depends on what you mean," Xia Ruolan asked softly.
Mu Feng's brows furrowed, but he didn't know what to say at the moment, and turned to look at the incompetence on the side, from the previous incompetent statement, everyone knew what his decision was.
"How long does it take to get to Nanshan Mountain in Moon worship from here," Inept interjected, looking at Mu Feng and asking curiously.
"Far away, Nanshan and the Wind and Snow Empire border, is a primeval forest, and the mountains of Nanshan stretch for thousands of miles. From here, at our current rate, it will probably take thirteen or fourteen days. ”
In the face of incompetent inquiry, Mu Feng frowned slightly and carefully recalled the topographic map of the moon worship, Nanshan is on the border of the moon worship, with the mountain as the boundary, one side is the moon worship, and the other side is the wind and snow empire, the terrain is steep, mostly the poor mountains and evil mountains, the dense primeval forest is inhuman, and Mu Feng once had a plan to invade the wind and snow.
But also because the terrain of Nanshan is too complicated, hundreds of thousands of troops in the endless forests are thrown in, and they can't even see the figure in a blink of an eye, and if they don't enter the mountain range and march directly from the official road, the Wind and Snow Empire has heavy troops stationed on the official road on the border, and the mountain range of Nanshan seems to have become an insurmountable natural barrier between the two countries.
"So far," the four exclaimed in unison.
Seeing the expressions of the four of them, especially Zhuo Zichen, who had questioned him before, was surprised, Mu Feng was stunned at first, and then shook his head with a wry smile, "I'm talking about the speed at which we arrived here from Qingxuan Mountain, if it drags on a little, you won't be bored after a month." ”
"How big is Nanshan," Inept asked softly with a trembling voice after gasping.
"It's very big, Nanshan doesn't refer to a certain mountain, Nanshan stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and is formed by countless mountains connected together, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there are 100,000 mountains." Mu Feng shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly.
"How can you find this person with a sick brain at such a big age," Incompetent was the first to exclaim.
"Yes, Nanshan stretches for thousands of miles, and it is estimated that it will be half a month to get to Nanshan at the earliest, and when the time comes, I can't find it, wouldn't it be a trip in vain" Zhuo Zichen nodded, frowned, and said in a deep voice.
After hearing about the general situation, the five of them were at a loss, and even Mu Feng didn't know what to say, and his mind was blank.
The murderer is obviously coming at them, so what is his purpose, if it is for their sake, how can he not let their elders
Everyone is so old, and they have seen a lot of things, could it be that the murderer wants to lead them to a special place to brainwash them, then he takes it for granted, if he wants to be unfavorable to himself, why not show up now and solve himself
If he was taboo about the previous Saint-rank powerhouse, then how could he kill all the people here when the Saint-rank powerhouse was there, and it could be seen that there had been a fierce battle here, and very few of the Ancient Sword Sect disciples lying around were killed, in other words, there must be more than one person who came here to participate in the massacre.
