Shen Meijia took Lin Zhengfeng through the mountains and forests, over the mountains, and with the blessing of Jiulong Ding, Shen Meijia's speed was not slow. But Dabai Mountain is extremely dangerous, and there are cliffs everywhere, hindering Shen Meijia's pace.

But Shen Meijia didn't want to delay for a moment.

At this time, she was extremely nervous in her heart, because for all this, all her hopes were pinned on Jiuyang Temple. Shen Meijia and Lin Zhengfeng had come to Jiuyang Temple once, and they knew how much hope there was here, if they could find the old man from last time.

Maybe all this will develop in a better direction.

So......

Shen Meijia didn't stop along the way.

Dozens of mountains have been climbed.

Finally, at noon that day, it lasted seven hours and arrived near the Jiuyang Temple.

Shen Meijia stopped on a protruding mountain rock, and looked condescendingly at Lin Zhengfeng, Jiuyang Temple appeared halfway up the mountain, looming in the clouds. Although this distance is very long, under Shen Meijia's speed, it is also a matter of several minutes.

"It's almost there." Shen Meijia turned her head to look at Lin Zhengfeng and pointed to the temple in the distance.

She seemed unusually excited and nervous.

Lin Zhengfeng nodded at Shen Meijia.

Shen Meijia understood, did not rest, and continued to run forward with Lin Zhengfeng. Five minutes later, the two of them had already arrived outside the gate of Jiuyang Temple.

It's just that everything in front of you,

Shen Meijia was stunned.

"This? What's going on? ”

Shen Meijia looked around nervously.

An incredible expression appeared on his face.

The Jiuyang Temple that she and Lin Zhengfeng walked through a few months ago, although it was still in her eyes at this time, it had changed its appearance. In the past, the Jiuyang Temple was extremely full of incense, but now it is empty, only the temple is isolated on the mountain, deserted.

The gate pavilion with the Nine Yang Temple was isolated outside the square.

There are signs of fracture on the doorpost.

As far as the eye can see, the square of the entire Jiuyang Temple is in chaos, the Dading that is worshiped by the world has been overthrown to the ground, and several corpses that have decayed have fallen to the ground messily, and the blood has dried up. Although the Jiuyang Temple is still there, it is no longer alive.

"Husband, what's going on here? How so? Shen Meijia looked at everything she saw in front of her in surprise.

Grabbing Lin Zhengfeng's arm, he asked.

Lin Zhengfeng frowned slightly, and then walked towards the door pavilion of the Nine Yang Temple, stretched out his hand and stroked the pillar a few times. After a pause, Lin Zhengfeng glanced at the square outside the temple, and the corpses fell to the ground.

A smell of decay permeated the square.

"The blood has dried up, and it looks like things have been going on for a long time." Lin Zhengfeng held on to the blood stains on the pillar and said lightly.

Shen Meijia looked at everything in front of her in surprise.

His body trembled slightly.

She never thought that Jiuyang Temple would become what it is now.

"Meijia, let's go in." Shen Meijia was nervous, and Lin Zhengfeng said casually.

Then the two of them walked towards the square.

The rotting corpses emitted a foul stench.

Lin Zhengfeng took Shen Meijia's hand and glanced at the corpses around him, and finally walked to the overthrown Jiuyang Ding. There are obvious bump marks on the Jiuyang Ding, and the blood stains have also dried up. Lin Zhengfeng looked at these dead people on the ground, among these dead people were monks, and there were also people wearing civilian clothes, probably who came to offer incense, but they died here due to an accident. And no one even knows about this.

Lin Zhengfeng was stenched.

Squatting down and frowning, he ripped off a monk's shirt, and due to the extreme decomposition of the corpse, he couldn't see anything anymore.

"Husband, what should I do? These people have been dead for a long time, and there should be no more people alive. Shen Meijia looked at Lin Zhengfeng and couldn't help asking.

"The corpses are all stinky, the corpses have been preserved for a long time in winter, looking at the degree of decay now, the incident should have happened about a month ago, there are not many traces of a fight here, and the person who killed should be a master." Lin Zhengfeng wiped his hands and replied.

"But who has the courage to dare to touch the people of Jiuyang Temple? This is the place protected by Jiuhuamen. Shen Meijia wondered.

"Not necessarily."

Lin Zhengfeng looked ahead and licked his lips: "Jiuhuamen doesn't know what's going on, I think the situation of the Venerable Envoys will not be too good." The killer may have come from the Sanctuary, but who killed it? Could it be Turomon ? ”

"How do you know it's Turmon?"

"Just speculation. Aside from Slaughter, what other sect in the Sacred Realm is so vicious? Even the common people who came to offer incense did not let go. But this matter is by no means simple, and it seems that we have more than one enemy. Lin Zhengfeng replied.

"So what's next? Everyone here is dead, we came here for nothing, and besides, how can we restore your cultivation? I'm dying. Shen Meijia stomped her feet and said with a small mouth.

Lin Zhengfeng stood up.

casually took Shen Meijia's little hand, looked at the Jiuhua Hall, and said, "Don't worry, Meijia, since we have come to the Jiuyang Temple, we will definitely be able to find out the reason." It is impossible for the murderer not to leave any clues, let's take a look inside. ”

"But I'm still worried, what if you can't recover your cultivation today? That Zhang Daxian was a liar again last night, what a headache. ”

"It's not as complicated as you think, just let it be." Lin Zhengfeng shook Shen Meijia's little hand.

Shen Meijia sighed.

With a foul smell, he reluctantly followed Lin Zhengfeng to Jiuhua Palace.

The door of the Jiuhua Hall was open, and Lin Zhengfeng had already seen that the Jiuyang God carving inside had been overturned to the ground, and it had been broken, and his body was in a different place. The gate of Jiuhua Hall was covered with cobwebs, and the stench came from inside, and it seemed that many people had died.

Lin Zhengfeng brushed away the cobwebs and strode in with Shen Meijia across the threshold.

The stench in the house was even worse.

Shen Meijia immediately withdrew disgustedly, covered her nose and mouth and shook her head, panting: "No, I can't stand this smell." ”

Lin Zhengfeng tore off his down jacket, made two masks with cotton wool and fabric inside, and then added some powder to it and handed it to Shen Meijia. Shen Meijia put the mask on her nose, only smelling a faint fragrance, and nothing else.

Only then did he follow Lin Zhengfeng and walked in.

The traces of the fight in the Jiuhua Hall are relatively obvious, but they are not particularly many, there are blood stains on the walls, and there are also traces of impact in the hall. In the entire Jiuhua Hall, there were about thirty corpses lying horizontally and vertically, all of which were already unrecognizable and could not distinguish their faces.

Other than that, there is no other information.

It's just that the huge carving of the Nine Yang God was horizontal in the main hall, his head rolled far away, and his body was divided into several halves.

Lin Zhengfeng carefully looked at every corner.

Shen Meijia was more disgusted with the things here, and didn't even dare to look at it more, so she grabbed Lin Zhengfeng's hand tightly and complained angrily. "There's nothing here but dead people. The murderer killed all these people, did they want to rob some treasures of Jiuyang Temple? But is there any treasure in Jiuyang Temple? ”

"That Jiuyang Ding at the door should be a treasure, right? Why didn't the murderer take Jiuyang Ding away? Shen Meijia wondered.

"Jiuyang Ding may not be what he wants." Lin Zhengfeng replied.

"And what does he want?"

"I don't know."

Lin Zhengfeng said, walked around the Jiuhua Palace, and finally squatted down to look at the statue of the Jiuyang God. There is nothing special about the statue, except that the carving is more delicate. Lin Zhengfeng didn't know why, and he couldn't guess what happened here.

But he could feel that there was always something here that should be what he wanted.

"Meijia, do you remember where we met that old man?" Lin Zhengfeng squatted on the ground and asked Shen Meijia lightly.

Shen Meijianu thought for a while.

Then he shook his head and said, "I know where it is, but I don't know the mechanism." By the way, husband, don't you say that I can't remember, you see that none of the corpses on the ground are similar to the old man, and the girl, aren't they dead? ”

"Impossible." Lin Zhengfeng refused. "Since the murderer dares to slaughter all the people in Jiuyang Temple, he will definitely not let anyone go. Maybe we haven't found his body yet, or maybe he's already dead, or maybe he was taken away by the murderer. ”

"Then we can't find the old man, what's the point of us coming here?" Shen Meijia pouted.

"You're just too anxious." Lin Zhengfeng counted Shen Meijia's sentence.

Shen Meijia grimaced at Lin Zhengfeng.

But it was such a grimace that made her inadvertently notice this statue of the Nine Yang God, Shen Meijia's eyes were bright enough, she grabbed Lin Zhengfeng's arm, pointed to the statue, and said, "Look, what is that?" ”

Lin Zhengfeng looked at the place where Shen Meijia was fingering.

I saw that the position where the statue of the Nine Yang God was sitting, due to the tilting and movement of the statue, an irregular hole the size of a bowl mouth was revealed.

Lin Zhengfeng was taken aback, hurriedly walked over to take a look, and said in surprise: "Meijia, your eyes are quite useful." ”

The entrance to the cave was covered by a corpse, which was lying on the ground.

To be clear, his head was pressed against the entrance of the cave, which was so rotten that it was exposed.

"What is this?" Shen Meijia asked.

Lin Zhengfeng was a little happy, and said: "There is a secret room down here, and the entrance to the secret room is under the statue of this Nine Yang God, and now the statue has been overturned, and the entrance to the secret room has been destroyed and exposed." I think the corpse in front of me should be the old man we saw last time. ”

Shen Meijia looked at it, and suddenly felt that her body shape and figure were very similar.

Said in surprise: "That is to say, after the Jiuyang Statue was knocked down, the hole was exposed, and this old man blocked it with his body before he died, and was not discovered by the murderer, he was deliberately protecting this secret room." ”

"You're right. Move the statue out of the way, and we're ready to go down. ”

Lin Zhengfeng got up and said.
