Ziyi was not in a hurry, and took a leisurely sip of tea, while Mu Beichen on the side looked very calm.

Only Duanmu Qi couldn't bear it anymore, and opened his mouth to break the silence in the room: "Master, what the hell is going on?!" ”

"Amitabha, sins, all sins—" The abbot turned around, his face full of sorrow.

Duanmu Qi secretly slandered himself, the monk is really the most hated existence in the world, the "Amitabha Buddha" who opened and closed his mouth, and said that the "sins and sins" that had remained unchanged for thousands of years before the main point.

"On the tenth day of the lunar month, the female benefactor of Wuhua Palace found us, saying that she had found a cave in the back mountain of Shaolin Temple, and I heard that the cave contained a rare medicine for 10,000 years - blue grass."

"Mu Elegy?" Mu Beichen frowned slightly, as if he was considering how true or false what the abbot said.

Mu Elegy's personality is very clear to him, that woman has never been interested in these strange insects and plants, and she rarely has contact with people in the rivers and lakes, how could she find the host of Shaolin Temple for the sake of blue grass!

At the same time, Mu Shizhu also contacted the heads of the major sects, the caves in the mountains behind the Shaolin Temple, and the ancestors had left a warning that no one was allowed to enter. The master also hesitated for a long time, but the blue grass had only been seen in the literature, but no one had ever really seen the real thing. Legend has it that this blue grass can prolong life, and even has the effect of immortality—"

"So you broke into that cave by disobeying the teachings of your ancestors?"

For the abbot's words, Ziyi scoffed.

There is no such thing as an immortal herb in this world, it is just a fabrication of people, and something that no one has ever seen can provoke these individuals to believe so deeply.

Amusing!

Lamentable!

"Sin, sin—" The abbot buried his head deeply.

"What did these people see in that cave? Did it bring something out of the cave? Too lazy to be sarcastic, Purple went straight to the point.

The cave that the ancestors did not allow to enter must have its strangeness.

If there is any terrible virus in that cave, then I am afraid that the world will suffer.

The abbot still hung his head and did not speak for a long time.

"Hello? Feed?! Realizing something, Duanmuqi stepped forward suddenly, shook his hand in front of the abbot, and shouted a few more loudly, but the abbot seemed to be unable to hear it.

"It's wrong-" Ziyi stood up from his seat suddenly, and just wanted to reach out to touch the abbot's pulse, but was pulled back by Mu Beichen.

"Don't touch it, be careful!"

Mu Beichen cautiously put his hand under the abbot's nose, and after a long time, he shook his head at the two people in the room: "It's already out of breath." ”

"How so?" Duanmuqi frowned, why did this person die after talking in a dignified manner?

If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't believe it.

"We'd better cremate his body as much as possible, otherwise if we are like the previous master, I'm afraid that many people will die here." Damn it! I didn't even ask how many people they went in at that time! Ziyi clenched his fists, although he had a clue now, but the point was still not asked.

If you want to know the truth of the matter, do you have to go to that cave for once?

"We don't know what's in that cave, so we're afraid we'll be in danger if we go there hastily."

"How can you always guess what I'm thinking?" Ziyi frowned and looked at Mu Beichen suspiciously.

She always felt that she was transparent in front of Mu Beichen.

In other words, Mu Beichen is like a roundworm in her stomach.

"As far as I know, Mu Elegy will definitely not contact the major sects for any blue grass, but I am afraid that there is still a secret in this matter." Ignoring the question of purple clothes, Mu Beichen lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface." And on the tenth day of the lunar month, if I remember correctly, Mu Elegy had been missing for a while before that. ”

"Anyway, let's go and inform everyone first. It's best to keep things about the cave a secret, though. I'm afraid someone won't be tempted to go into the cave again. Pursing his lips, Ziyi looked at the abbot master who was already on the side. He remained standing, his head bowed, as if he was contemplating something.

Always feeling as if he had overlooked something important, Ziyi knocked on his head that was a little swollen.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Mu Beichen's voice sounded above Ziyi's head, and that concerned appearance reminded Ziyi of Duanmu Xun.

She thought that she must have been poisoned by Duanmu Kaoru.

Otherwise, why do you have him in your head all the time?

This matter is too strange and complicated, should she admit her mistake and go back to the palace-at least not to be afraid.

"The rivers and lakes are like this, everything is not as good as the deep palace compound, and there is danger everywhere."

was poked again, and Ziyi glared at Mu Beichen angrily.

"Heh-yes, you and I are two good princes, and we are not right, and we have come here to investigate this strange case! It's really self-deprecating. Duanmuqi took Mu Beichen's words, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth: "Jianghu, court, sometimes I feel tired when I think about it." It's better to find a spare field and be an ordinary person in peace. ”

"What are you two whining about here!" pursing his lips, Ziyi said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Wang, hero, that's what many people dream of, don't show off here." Hurry up and think about how to explain to the group of people outside later! Shaolin Temple has killed two hosts in a row, plus the bizarre deaths of the heads of various sects, I'm afraid the entire rivers and lakes will be turbulent, right? ”

Although Ziyi doesn't know much about the rivers and lakes, and she doesn't know anything about the sects in this place, her intuition tells her that this time things are definitely not so simple.

"Why do you have to give an account to those people?" Mu Beichen winked at Duanmu Qi and said, "Other people's lives and deaths have nothing to do with us, at this time, we might as well go back to Wuhua Palace first and think about it in the long run." ”

Continuing to stay in Shaolin is obviously not a good choice, there are a lot of fish and dragons here, and it is difficult to say what the purpose of the people is here.

There may be people who died for the sake of their own head and came to investigate, but there must be some people who want to continue to search for the cave after hearing some wind and grass!

These people have their own ghosts, and they have crossed paths with them, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not run into any trouble.

I didn't have any thoughts about this Shaolin rally, but now it seems that there is nothing more valuable to be found except for this little clue.

"You mean, we're leaving now?" Duanmu Qi narrowed his eyes, pondered Mu Beichen's words, and continued: "It's just that if we leave like this, I'm afraid that these people will make trouble in Wuhua Palace." ”

"Is Wuhua Palace a place where they say they will make trouble?" Mu Beichen didn't seem to pay attention to the large group of people outside, he felt that those straw bales might not have the courage to go to Wuhua Palace at all.

"If you want to go, I'm going to stay here." Ziyi's eyes flickered, and he already had a certain number in his heart.

"Don't think about what you do alone, maybe your ideas will only hurt the people you care about." Dropping a sentence, Mu Beichen opened the window, "If you don't want to go with us, you can go down." ”

As soon as the words fell, the figure had disappeared into the window.

Duanmu Qi frowned and jumped out as well.

Although this woman called "Purple" seems to be very interesting, it is imperative to try her best to find out the truth of the matter, otherwise the turmoil in the rivers and lakes will definitely affect the imperial court.

If a small foreign country learns the news of "blue grass" and then intervenes, I am afraid that things will be even more troublesome in the future.

Ziyi gritted his teeth, he always felt that this Mu Beichen was very weird!

After thinking about it for a while, she jumped out of the window, and the three of them galloped quickly through the forest with light skills, and went down the mountain as fast as they could.

At the foot of the mountain, Ziyi tightened the cloak on his body, "How long does it take to get from here to Wuhua Palace?" ”

"If you have enough luck, half a day at most." When they arrived at the bottom of the mountain, the faces of the three people were not red or panting, and Duanmu Qi looked at Ziyi differently. In the rivers and lakes, he really doesn't see many women who have reached such a level of light function.

With a roll of his eyes, Zi Yi was also very interested in Wuhua Palace, but there was a trace of hesitation in his heart.

After all, that Wuhua Palace is Duanmu Xun's territory, and now that such a thing has happened, if Duanmu Kaoru interferes in it, he is afraid, he will recognize her at a glance.

"I don't know if your palace master is in the palace?" After thinking about it secretly, Ziyi asked.

"Wushuang is not in the palace on weekdays, and everything is solved by us, the Dharma protectors. But this time—" Duanmuqi frowned, "I informed him, but he wrote back that he had other matters to attend to and would not be involved for the time being. ”

Other things - who doesn't know that he went to find his unreassuring concubine!

Mu Elegy is dead, and he is indifferent to such an important matter!

"Oh, then let's go quickly, Mu Elegy's body is still in the Wuhua Palace, if there is really any change, I'm afraid that the people over there will not be easy to deal with, right?" Hearing that Duanmu Kaoru was not involved, Ziyi was slightly relieved.

It is estimated that that guy could not have imagined that she would hide her identity and hide in his jurisdiction! And in Wuhua Palace, Ziyi believes that she must be able to learn the news of Duanmu Xun.

Secretly happy in his heart, Ziyi urged.

The three of them didn't say more, and then quickened their pace to Wuhua Palace.

Wuhua Palace is also outside Beijing, but it is not far from the capital, it is in a canyon.

When the three of them arrived at Wuhua Palace, it was already completely dark. Along the way, there were hardly any people to be seen.

In the palace, Mu Beichen and Duanmu Qi took the purple clothes to take the lead in inspecting Mu Elegy's body, unlike the body hosted by Shaolin, Mu Elegy's corpse showed no signs of decay at all, and even the stiffness of a normal corpse did not exist!

The complexion looked as if a living person was asleep.

Ziyi stretched out her hand and poked Mu Elegy's arm, only this cold and piercing touch made her believe that the person in front of her was no longer alive.

It's just that in this body, I don't feel at all the information that the soul once stored zài.

Ziyi frowned, it stands to reason that if a person dies for no more than a month, then there should be a soul mark on the corpse.

Ziyi suddenly remembered that when the abbot died, she had never seen any soul matter!

What the hell is going on?

Could it be that

"Maybe they're dead." Thinking of this, Ziyi spoke softly, "It's just that the body is being manipulated, but what is the purpose?" ”

"No matter what the purpose of the people behind the scenes, at this time, we must not act rashly." Mu Beichen spoke, his eyes moved to Mu Elegy's corpse lying on the stone case, and suddenly found that there was a piece of withered grass under the corpse.

Walking to Mu Elegy's feet, Mu Beichen gasped even more, he clearly remembered that after Mu Elegy died, he had specially instructed someone to change this mourning dress to Mu Elegy, the corpse was parked here, and it was impossible for the soles of his shoes to be dirty like this! And the hems shouldn't be so muddy.

"Someone!"

"Mu Protector?"

"Is there anyone here these days?"

"I don't want to protect the Dharma."

"Has it ever rained?"

"Yesterday."

"Let's go down."

"Yes."

Ziyi looked at the conversation between the two curiously, tilting his head, not knowing what Mu Beichen was thinking in his head.

"We'll stay here tonight." Mu Beichen looked at Ziyi, then at Duanmu Qi, and continued: "You see, her feet have obviously stepped on muddy water, but her body is not wet at all. And this rain fell yesterday, and she must have gone out after this rain stopped. ”

Ziyi looked in the direction of Mu Beichen's finger, and unconsciously took a breath of cold air, and for a moment, he only felt that the cold wind was gusting behind him, the pores of his whole body were blocked, and his hairs stood up.

It was night, just after the hour, the purple clothes were wrapped in a quilt and shrunk in the corner, only to feel that the upper eyelids and the lower eyelids were fighting, while Duanmuqi on the side stared at the corpse on the stone case with a pair of big eyes.

Mu Beichen looked much more relaxed than the two of them, he sat on the left side of the purple clothes, his hands around his chest, his eyes slightly closed, and he didn't look nervous at all.

Three quarters of the hour.

Just when the last trace of consciousness in purple clothes was about to disappear and go to meet Zhou Gong completely, Duanmu Qi on the right suddenly grabbed her sleeve tightly.

The startled purple clothes instantly sobered up, and subconsciously looked at the stone case-Mu Elegy's corpse, and there was a slight movement.

The corpse lying on the bed suddenly opened its eyes, sat up, and looked around.

Since the room was completely enclosed, there were no windows, and there was no lighting, Mu Elegy didn't seem to see the three people hiding in the corner.

She shook her stiff arms and neck, got off the stone case, opened the door with ease, and walked out.

Ziyi felt that his left hand was being held by a warm hand, and he understood it in his heart, and pulled Duanmu Qi on the right, and the three of them tiptoed behind Mu Elegy.

That Mu Elegy seemed to be very familiar with the guards of the Wuhua Palace, and avoided the guards very lightly, and after a while, the three of them followed her out of the Wuhua Palace and out of the valley.

"Why don't I think he's a dead man at all?" Duanmu Qi shuddered, leaned on Mu Beichen's ear and whispered, "Looking at her appearance, it is no different from when she was alive." The movements are not stiff, and the head seems to be flexible. ”

"I don't know, let's talk about it first!"

Mu Elegy took the three of them back and forth outside the valley several times, until three o'clock, when the sun was about to rise, he hurried back to the Wuhua Palace, and lay down on the stone case again, silent.

All three of them were tired from the night.

Ziyi was a little deflated, it felt like she had been tricked by a corpse.

She walked up to Mu Wangge with some anger, stretched out her hand and poked the arm, but her eyes widened instantly!

"Come here! This body still has body temperature! ”

Although the temperature is very low, it is no longer as cold to the touch as before!

Could it be that this Mu Elegy really came to life just now?

Mu Beichen stepped forward and touched Mu Elegy's arm, sure enough, there was still a temperature!

"Could it be that they really found the 'blue grass' and obtained the effect of immortality?" At this time, Ziyi was also a little suspicious, looking at Mu Elegy's dynamics, it was clear that he had an immortal body, even if he died, he would come back to life at a specific time. "What kind of person is this Mu Elegy?"

"Elegy is usually very indifferent, only Beichen will have that kind of fiery eyes, but it's a pity that this guy just doesn't appreciate people's affection." Duanmu Qi said: "When the Chinese New Year was approaching, she said that she was going back to Lingyin Country to visit her relatives. After all, she had been away from there for five years and had never been back, so Wushuang and I agreed. It's just that at that time, when she left, there was no news. ”

"We thought something had happened to her, and when we wanted to send someone to look for her, she came back on her own, but it was a little weird." Mu Beichen thought of Mu Elegy's appearance when he came back, and a fog of doubt rose in his heart.

"Oh? What's weird? ”

"I remember that she also came back at night and told people not to disturb her during the day."

"Maybe she was dead by then. Like now? Ziyi said softly.

"Now that I think about it, it's possible." Mu Beichen groped his jaw, "If it weren't for Nie Yun looking for her during the day, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to know the fact that she was dead by now." ”

"Maybe we won't know the answer until we go to that cave." Ziyi felt that things were getting more and more chaotic, and this qiē was inextricably linked, and she always felt as if she had a clue, but she didn't seem to have a clue at all.

It's still a mess in my head.

"It's too dangerous, and we'd better not investigate it unless we have to. It's not too early, you better take a little rest, and I'll send someone to find out the news from the Shaolin Temple. ”

Mu Beichen tightened his collar for Ziyi, and his movements were natural as if he often did this.

Ziyi shrugged his shoulders a little uncomfortably, said an embarrassed "hehe" twice, and left the stone room as if he were running away.

Duanmu Qi looked at the figure of Ziyi leaving, and still muttered in his heart: "How can two people be so similar - is it really her?" ”

"What do you think, go and rest, let's continue in the evening."
