Chapter 671: The So-Called True Image
One of the petite nuns said: "Return, go back to the seniors, I only saw Li Xiu go out in the middle of the night." Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
Hearing this, another female disciple who had been shrunk said: "I also remember, three days and in the middle of the night before I found her body, I seemed to hear her talking to Weijun. β
"What did they say?" Su Qing asked with some curiosity.
The female disciple timidly glanced in the direction of Wei Jun's violent body and said, "Li Xiu told Wei Jun that she should make an appointment with a senior brother when the moon is full. β
Su Qing bowed slightly, motioning for her to continue.
The female cultivator was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she had only been six or seven years old, and she was responsible for taking care of Lingtian on weekdays, and she didn't have much contact with people, so she was still very shy.
From her stumbling narration, it turned out that Weijun had a mutual affection for a fellow senior brother, and often took advantage of the break to have trysts together.
But this matter was discovered by Li Xiu, who went out in the middle of the night, and he also tempted the senior brother.
It turned out that Li Xiu asked Weijun to go out that night to make it clear.
"You haven't seen you since that night - the so-called Li Xiu?" Su Qing raised his eyebrows and asked.
Another petite female disciple said: "Back to the real person, I, I seem to have heard the sound of Li Xiu's body opening the door the night before her body was found." β
Su Qing's expression froze, and he immediately made a decision to Qingding Zhenren: "Senior brother, let you go to find the disciple who has a personal relationship with Li Xiu first, and we will go to Li Xiu's original residence to have a look now." β
The group followed the Zhuji deacon to a disciple's residence on the mountainside.
The courtyard where Li Xiu and the four of them lived was located closest to Lingtian, which seemed a little remote, and it was also several miles away from the nearest courtyard.
There are four independent disciple dwellings in the courtyard, each with an ear room, and the small courtyard is enclosed.
"That is Li Xiu's room, and the one directly opposite is Weijun's." The petite nun pointed to a northernmost hallway.
Su Qingxin pushed open Li Xiu's room before his death, and a dusty smell rushed in, as if he hadn't been here for a long time.
However, according to the words of those two disciples, there were people living three months ago.
But it was as if there had been no one here for three years.
"Li Xiu's room is closed on weekdays? Who is doing her job? Su Qing glanced at the empty room and asked.
"The spirit grass that Li Xiu is responsible for is the night ghost, which needs to be watered and weeded at dawn." The deacon who was in charge of leading them replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a disciple of the third level of Qi cultivation rushing in in a panic, and as soon as he saw that the peak masters were also there, he immediately bowed down to greet him.
"Hurry up and speak!" The Jade Rank real man waved his hand casually.
"Hui, Huifeng Lord, Senior Deacon Zhang, Senior Brother Ruan Hang, he's dead!" The disciple trembled as if he had been frightened by something: "When we rushed into his room, we found that he was only a skeleton left!" β
"Let's go! Let's check it out! Su Qing immediately decided.
When she saw the skeleton lying on top of the bed in front of her, she couldn't help but tremble: the flesh was obviously eaten by something!
Looking at the clothes, shoes and socks scattered on the ground, although a little messy, they are all intact.
This Ruan Hang is likely to be **** first, and then eaten away.
Tooth marks can still be seen on Ruan Hang's bones, and some of the smaller bones have been bitten off, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.
However, the tooth marks were clearly human teeth.
What's more, there was not a drop of blood spilled on the bed!
"He was eaten three months ago, how can no one find out all this time?!" Su Qing straightened up and asked.
I saw that the other three disciples who lived together in the same courtyard were speechless.
In the end, one of them stubbornly said, "We don't have much contact with Senior Brother Ruan on weekdays. β
Su Qing looked at them suspiciously: "Then it won't be that you won't see anyone for three months, and you won't find anything?" β
"Senior Brother Ruan has a spirit stone in his hand, and the spiritual field he is responsible for is taken care of by others, and he hooks up with his senior sisters everywhere, and often doesn't see anyone for ten days and half a month." Another disciple plucked up the courage to respond.
Then, Su Qing learned from the mouths of these three that this Ruan Hang was born in a small family of cultivators in the world, and he was quite wealthy in his hands, and he was romantic, he was throwing flowers and grass everywhere, and often brought his sisters back to find fun.
often mocks the brothers in the same hospital, so the popularity is extremely poor, and no one notices it after disappearing for so long.
It's sad to think that a person is mixed like this, but thinking about it, he may think that it is an honor for the peony flower to die.
This merry disciple was finally eaten by the beauty, but such indifference between the disciples of the sect also made Su Qing's heart cold.
No wonder when Luoyang was in Lingyu Peak, he was almost rubbed to death, it turned out that the lowest-level disciples were all in such separate camps.
However, among the people in the same group, only Su Qing paid attention to these, and in fact, the minds of others were all in the mystery of who Ruan Hang was eating.
"Do you remember, did he bring someone back three months ago?" The Jade Rank True Man looked at the three low-level disciples with a serious expression.
The disciple who had not spoken up stepped forward and responded: "Back to the peak master, the disciple saw him bring a junior sister back one night three months ago. β
Under the encouraging gaze of the Jade Rank Zhenren, he hesitated and said, "However, later, I also saw that the light in his room was turned on at night, so-"
As soon as he said this, another disciple also hurriedly added, "I also saw the light in his room at midnight half a month ago!" β
How so!?
The person has been dead for three months, how can there be a light in the room at night?
Could it be that someone has ever entered this room after that?
However, Su Qing and the others did not find any traces of someone entering the room recently.
Su Qing came to the ancient pottery spirit tung lamp, and after carefully observing what was abnormal, he didn't see any mechanism or anything like this lamp that ordinary disciples were all in.
After she picked up the lamp, she found that there were several thin scratches on the side of the ancient pottery!
If you hadn't picked it up and looked at the window, you wouldn't have noticed it.
"What's so strange about this lamp?" Seeing her looking at the lamp over and over again, the Jade Ladder True Person couldn't help but ask.
"There are a few paths on this lamp, you see!" Su Qing thoughtfully came to the window, held the lamp in front of the jade step real person with one hand, and pushed the carved wooden window with the other.
As soon as her hand touched the window, she heard a 'squeak', and the window opened in response.
Immediately, a white spirit bird rose to the sky outside the window.
Su Qing's expression froze, and dozens of spirit ropes suddenly came out, weaving a spirit net in the space, trapping the white spirit.
I only heard the bird's mournful long chirp, and then, the whole body ignited a spiritual fire, and I wanted to die.
Su Qing sneered, and with a move of his hand, the spiritual fire on Bai Ling's body suddenly extinguished.
However, when the white spirit bird, whose feathers had been scorched by the spiritual fire, arrived in Su Qing's hands, it was already with its feet facing the sky, its body stiffened, and it was completely exhausted.
"This birdβalso has a problem?" The Jade Rank real person asked puzzled.
This white spirit doesn't even have a trace of spiritual power in his body, and it looks no different from ordinary birds, how can it be-
He looked at Su Qing and saw that she was staring intently at the white spirit bird's thin red claws.
"If I'm not mistaken, the scratches on the lamp are the work of it, you see! There are also on this window lattice. Su Qing pointed to a few fine marks on the window lattice.
"Do you notice this bird on a regular basis?" Su Qing turned his head to look at the three Qi cultivation disciples who had already looked stupid and asked.
"Return, back to the real person, I saw Senior Brother Ruan tease the birds half a year ago, and it seems to look like this." A disciple stumbled.
Half a year ago?
Could it be that these demon beasts infected by the Demon Dao had already infiltrated the sect half a year ago?
At this time, she had already affirmed that since the death of Sogo Zhenren, all these conspiracies were related to demon beasts!
No wonder, as soon as they make a move, the key people will die inexplicably, it turns out that these ordinary people will not notice at all, and the demon birds that turn into ordinary birds have been staring at them nearby!
And the stiff first-order demon bird in her hand should be just an eyeliner who is responsible for misleading the disciples of the same courtyard here to think that Ruan Hang is still alive.
When Su Qing told everyone about her guesses, looking at Ruan Hang's gnawed white bones, she couldn't help but feel a chill: the demon beast had already begun to infiltrate the sect!
Although Su Qing came to this conclusion, the real demon of the queen completely cut off the clue!
"You say, the demon beast is already lying in wait among the low-level disciples under the cover of magic, waiting for an opportunity?" Zhishan Zhenren looked at Luoyang solemnly and asked.
Because the Jade Rank True Man had a prejudice against him, he did not accompany Su Qing to Lingcao Peak at that time, but after Su Qing returned to Lingfu Peak, he told him about it in detail.
Her original intention was also transmitted to the ears of the true monarch through his mouth.
Zhishan Zhenjun snorted coldly: "Three months ago, the seal of Luoxian Mountain was shaken, and it was almost washed away, if it weren't for our preparations-"
Speaking of this, he stopped, looked at Luoyang and said, "This thing is definitely not something that a demon beast can do, but I am afraid that there is still a demon cultivator behind it." β
As soon as he mentioned demon cultivation, he remembered that Yun Xi had quietly practiced magic right under his nose, which caused this accident.
In the end, it's still hard to get rid of the demons!
"Okay, I know this, you also let Qinghua be careful, those demon cultivators are the most deceitful, don't let her also fall into the way." It was the first time that Zhishan Zhenjun cared about Su Qing.
Although it was just one sentence, it made Luoyang overjoyed: Does this mean that Master's prejudice against Su Qing has disappeared and may agree to them to get married?
Su Qing listened to Luoyang's joyful expression and conveyed to her that Zhishan Zhenren's concern for her, but she just smiled indifferently: "Thank you Zhenjun for your love!" What a flattering thing. β
To be honest, Su Qing has never had a good impression of the true monarch of goodness.
At the beginning, Luoyang insisted on not marrying Ziyun, and he also threatened her innocently.
If it weren't for his silent connivance, Ziyun wouldn't have repeatedly harmed her.
Although she didn't say these on the surface, she also remembered them in her heart.
Therefore, for such a fluttering word of concern, I didn't pay attention to it at all.
However, after Luoyang Autonomous Peak returned, the entire sect began to reorganize the roster.
All the disciples started from the beginning, and all the information was re-checked.
Because this operation started very suddenly and comprehensively, there were really dozens of disciples with suspicious behavior who were quietly disposed of.
Not only that, but the birds and beasts in the entire Fuyun Mountain have been strictly watched by the foundation.
As soon as an abnormal beast is found, it will be killed on the spot.
In less than three days, the middle and low-level disciples of the entire sect were panicked, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.
"Su Qing, the sect is so aggressively purged, don't the people who are the queen dare not come out?" Luoyang said with some concern.
Su Qing gave him a cup of spiritual tea and said: "The person who has been in charge of Mu Hou must have been arranged for a long time, and he is also very hidden, and he can't be found at the root for a while, so it is better to take advantage of this purge first and cut off some of his hands, feet, ears and eyes." β
"If there is any action in the future, there will be no available people, and it is inevitable that one day the horse's feet will be exposed." Su Qing agreed with Zhishan Zhenren's move.
That's the only way to do it today.
Hearing her explanation, Luoyang couldn't help but nod yes.
"What about my mission? Is it finished? Faceless with Jiro's legs crossed asked.
Su Qing shrugged his shoulders: "This standard is in Qingling, you can go back to the Fu Sect and ask her." β
The faceless 'brush' unfolded the jade fan and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go back and report to the Qingling Fairy, anyway, I won't be able to find out the person who Mu Hou will be able to find for a while, and it's not interesting for me to stay here." β
After speaking, he stood up and went straight to the direction of Fu Zong.
When Qiao Xiaojia heard that the person who killed the master had died, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and he was grateful to the faceless who took the credit completely on himself.
Although Su Qing and the others didn't think that Li Xiu, who was self-violent, was the culprit, but when it came to the faceless mouth, she was the real murderer who harmed the true person of Sogo.
Since the Great Gathering Spirit Array began to operate, the Fu Sect has abundant spiritual power, and the disciples are abundantly supplied, and on the first to the fifth day of the first month, and from the fifteenth to the twenty-twentieth of each month, the sect master, who is a true person of the Jiedan, has also preached and taught his disciples by himself.
At other times, the Great Elder of the sect preached to the new disciples.
Compared to other sects, which only give you one exercise, and can only listen to the foundation building monks once a month, compared to the disciples of the Fu Sect, they have indeed gained a lot.
Moreover, the sect's tasks are also very easy, which can not only improve the ability to draw talismans, but also complete the task.
"Qing Ling, the cultivation method of our sect is peculiar, and the rune paper used is also different from the ordinary spirit paper, if you go out to purchase them all, it will be too big for so many disciples to consume." Yu Mustard found Qiao Xiaojia and said.
Originally, it would have required a large amount of expenses to build this huge sect and feed more than a thousand disciples.
Among them, the largest expenditure is on the materials used to make symbols.
Qiao Xiaojia thought that the sect had spiritual fields and spiritual materials before, and there was no need to go out to purchase them at all.
"From today onwards, you and your disciples will open up some spiritual fields, plant rice, grains, fruits and vegetables, and supply them to the disciples of the sect." Qiao Xiaojia pondered for a moment and said, "Even the cinnabar beast blood used to make talismans can be purchased from the outside first, and the spiritual hemp used to make talisman paper can be planted first." β
As she spoke, she handed Yu Mustard a packet of Ling Ma Seeds and said, "Uncle Lao, you can take it for breeding first." β
"Sect Master, there is a call outside the mountain gate!" A disciple rushed to report. (To be continued.) )
