Chapter 101: Fake Death
As the ghost minister said, the whole city was in mourning, and all the demons were awakened in their sleep and stood in the streets, and everyone knew what the piercing bell meant.
Only the fall of the emperor will ring this bell to announce the entire Great Demon Kingdom.
The ghost ministers rushed to the depths of the harem with the flow of people, and it was already full of people, and almost all the concubines, princes, and courtiers rushed here.
Ji Kun died too suddenly, he was still a living person during the day, but he turned into a cold corpse at night, and such an earth-shattering event naturally shook the heart of the entire Great Demon Kingdom.
More than a dozen princes and princesses crouched in front of the dragon couch and sobbed and choked, and nearly twenty or so imperial doctors knelt on the ground and did not dare to make a sound.
"Father, rest assured, the child will never let the murderer go unpunished. Unlike the other princes, the young man who spoke was calmer than anyone else, although his eyes were red and swollen.
What's more important is that he has a dragon's head and a human body, and he faintly has the appearance of a generation of emperors.
Lu Yangfeng asked, "Who is he?"
Ghost Chen said, "The third prince Ji Long, he is also the only prince among all the princes who gave birth to a dragon blood seed, so he was directly named after the dragon as soon as he was born. ”
In ancient times, there was a saying that dragons give birth to nine sons, and nine sons do not become dragons, and he can be born with the blood of a dragon, which is enough to show that he must be a rising star with first-class natural ability.
Lu Yangfeng nodded, and then said, "It seems that Ji Kun's death should have been deliberately planned, but why did you choose to do it after all the vassal kings arrived in Jingxiao City." ”
Lu Yangfeng was thoughtful, he vaguely felt something, but he couldn't catch some substantive clues yet.
The third prince got up suddenly, he turned to look at everyone outside the door, "From now on, close Jingxiao City until the murderer is found." ”
"Prince, you ...... You don't suspect that the murderer is us......" A vassal king's eyes were a little gloomy, and this feeling of being suspected was indeed uncomfortable.
"Until the killer is caught, all of you are indeed suspicious. The third prince glanced at everyone coldly.
"This ...... This is an order personally issued by His Majesty to summon us to Beijing, how can the murderer be us?" a wolf demon venerable finally couldn't help but say anxiously.
"You are so anxious, are you the murderer?" The third prince stared at the wolf demon venerable, the latter trembled, but he didn't dare to speak again.
"Perhaps, if I examine His Majesty's corpse, I will find something. Lu Yangfeng, who was behind the mask, suddenly spoke, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Bold, how can Your Majesty's dragon body be checked at will?" a middle-aged prince with a snake head and a human body scolded angrily, this person was Ji Miao, the great prince of the Great Demon Country.
What they value is the vassal king, and the people around the vassal king are not that important, not to mention that this is still their father's corpse, and it is reasonable for the prince to come out to defend it.
"Ghost minister, who is he, why is he still wearing a mask?" another courtier answered.
"Well, don't blame my lord, my hand is damaged, and it is inconvenient to show people, and I ask the prince and you to forgive me. The ghost minister hurriedly explained.
The third prince stared at Lu Yangfeng behind the mask with his eyes narrowed, and after a while, he opened his mouth: "Then invite this master to come and have a look." ”
"Third brother, this is our father's body, how can others be allowed to check it at will?"
"Yes, Your Highness, the dragon's body is lying down, how can outsiders be allowed to easily check it. A minister spoke.
"Your Highness, be careful of this person's ill intentions, think twice......"
"Bastard!" the third prince Ji Long suddenly shouted angrily, and he continued, "What's the use of keeping corpses when people are dead, it's better to let him play his last role to help find the murderer, it's really stupid." ”
Everyone trembled, but they didn't dare to say more.
Compared with other princes, the third prince Ji Long does have a huge deterrent power, and this deterrent power is obviously gradually formed in ordinary days, rather than being achieved in a short period of time.
The fear in their eyes is not a feigned one, but a genuine respect that comes from the depths of the soul.
Few people saw the trace of gloom and murderous intent in the eyes of the eldest prince Ji Miao, and although the resentment and hatred of the third prince were fleeting, they were keenly captured by Lu Yangfeng.
However, he still walked up to Ji Kun's corpse without saying a word, and everyone stopped breathing, can this guy wearing a mask really find something?
Lu Yangfeng didn't do too much manipulation, he just swept his divine sense back and forth on Ji Kun's corpse, and then used his true qi to investigate back and forth, and after the time of tea, he looked at the third prince Ji Long.
"I would like to ask the prince a question first. Lu Yangfeng said.
You ask. Ji Long replied crisply and forcefully.
"How many masters are there around Your Majesty, and how are the protective forces around you?" Lu Yangfeng asked.
"There are four demon venerables, and there are even demon emperors patrolling day and night around, and there are two thousand ordinary patrol guards who are patrolling day and night in shifts where my father sleeps. Ji Long said.
"In this way, it is difficult for outsiders to get close to him, even if he is close, with your father's cultivation, there will definitely be resistance, but we see that he walked very peacefully, and there was no trace of fighting with people on his body, which narrowed the scope of the murderer by a whole circle. Lu Yangfeng said lightly.
"You mean, the murderer is someone from my father's side?" The words fell, and the two fathers-in-law and a dozen maids who had been standing aside knelt on the ground almost at the same time.
"Your Highness, don't listen to this person's nonsense, how can we do such a rebellious thing, even if we join forces, we can't be Your Majesty's opponents. ”
They knelt on the ground and begged for mercy at the same time, and Ji Long only frowned, because what they said was indeed the truth, and it was impossible for these people to kill a strong man who had just entered the Demon Venerable.
"No one doubts you, why are you so excited?" Ji Long said coldly.
"I ...... I ......" these people were trembling, and they couldn't even say a word.
"No, apart from these attendants, there are people who can approach him......" Lu Yangfeng said slowly.
The third prince's face changed, and he suddenly looked at the other princes and the princesses around him, and Ji Kun's children and the queen concubine were also very suspicious.
"You are presumptuous, you dare to doubt the prince, you ......"
"Bold, someone came to arrest this demon for me. ”
The important ministers have long been unable to stand it, Lu Yangfeng is not talking nonsense here, how could a son kill his father, they are not crazy.
"Stop it. ”
Ji Long snorted coldly, his eyes swept coldly, everyone seemed to be petrified in place, and then he looked at Lu Yangfeng again, "This is your speculation, what about the corpse, did you find anything on it?"
"The internal organs are eroded by an unknown toxin, which is also the reason why I suspect these people, it is impossible for ordinary people to approach His Majesty's side, and how can they do things in the things he eats and drinks. ”
Ji Long nodded, this is indeed an important clue, and then Lu Yangfeng continued, "But it's not a fatal injury, the demon clan is strong, and ordinary poison doesn't have much effect, the real fatal injury is this." ”
Lu Yangfeng's true qi condensed in his hand, and his arm flicked lightly on Ji Kun's chest, and then he saw a huge tiger claw print appear in everyone's sight.
"This ...... It's ......"
"Tiger Claw?This is the fatal wound?!"
"Tiger Claw, is it ......?"
Ji Long's gaze became more and more gloomy, and Lu Yangfeng asked, "What did you think of?"
Ji Long said: "The White Tiger Sect, a force that existed in ancient times, has recently discovered traces of their activity, could it be that the White Tiger Sect is attacking my Great Demon Kingdom's idea?"
His gaze swept again in front of everyone, if this was the case, it meant that the Great Demon Country had already infiltrated the people of the White Tiger Sect.
"This is actually not a problem, because your father is not really dead, he is only in a state of suspended animation now, the murderer obviously ignored the luck on Ji Kun's body, give me some time, I can bring your father back from the dead. Lu Yangfeng said lightly.
"Oh, are you telling the truth?" Ji Long's face was surprised and surprised.
Not only him, but everyone here was full of incredulity, and more than twenty imperial doctors looked at Lu Yangfeng as if they had seen a ghost.
They are knowledgeable in ancient and modern medicine, and several of them are hundreds of years old, but they still have nothing to do, this mysterious man wearing a mask can bring Ji Kun back to life?
How is this possible!
"It's not a difficult thing for me, give me two days at the most and I can do it. Lu Yangfeng said lightly.
"Okay, I'll give you two days, no, I'll give you three days, as long as you can save my father, I promise you anything. Ji Long said loudly.
But he continued, "But if you dare to lie to me......"
Lu Yangfeng said: "Of course I know this, and I won't say anything I am not sure of." ”
Ji Long shouted at everyone: "Everyone, please go back and rest, I will let you know if there is any news." ”
"This ...... It's simply impossible, Your Majesty him...... He clearly ......"
"Yes, Your Highness, so many of our old doctors have seen it, how capable he can be as a charlatan, so don't let him disturb Your Majesty's dragon body. ”
"Please also ask the prince to think twice, in case he has any purpose, wouldn't this be ......"
Before the imperial doctor could finish speaking, the ghost minister had already spoken in the middle of the crowd: "What do you mean, you suspect that he means and also suspect that my ghost minister is plotting against me, right?"
"I didn't mean that, I just ......" The Imperial Doctor's face was shocked, after all, he was only a doctor, and his status naturally couldn't be compared with these vassal kings.
"Then you just shut up for me, Your Majesty has died, and now there is a glimmer of hope that you are completely unsure, I think you people are the ones who are plotting evil. The ghost minister snorted coldly.
"You ......"
"Okay, Your Highness has his own measure. The order of the third prince did not dare to obey, and under his order, everyone left here with a heavy heart.
Although the ghost minister didn't understand what Lu Yangfeng was doing, the other party was the strongest of the human race after all, and his actions had his own reasons, so he also returned to the Hanging Island for the time being.
