Lu Jin, who was knocked down by Yao Gan, raised his eyes and saw a bamboo arrow the thickness of his thumb piercing the body of Yan Chong Daoren, and Bo Bo's blood flowed straight out along the shaft of the arrow, making his heart suddenly tighten.

Yao Gan and Zhao Jie kept him in the shadows, their knives unsheathed, their eyes fixed on the still broken back window, beware of a second arrow that might come in.

After a moment of silence, a bitter cry rang out in the room: "Master! But it was Xiaodao Tong Mingyue who finally came back to her senses, and after seeing that her master was seriously injured, she was flustered and didn't care about anything else, so she pounced directly.

And taking advantage of his move, Yao Gan quickly reached out and overturned the table in front of him directly, blocking Lu Jin's body, so that even if there was a cold arrow shooting, he could protect him thoroughly. At the same time, he exerted his strength again, and his body had already ejected towards the back window, dropping a sentence: "Lao Zhao protects the adult!" Then the man broke through the lattice of the window and swept out of the house.

In fact, during this delay, Lu Jin's safety has been guaranteed. Because of this change, the brocade guards outside have been alarmed, they were stunned, but also quickly broke into the door, after seeing Yan Chong's arrow, the tables and chairs in the room turned over the embarrassed appearance, also in a frightened draws a knife and stepped forward, surrounded in front of their own governor, to ensure that he will not be attacked.

It was only at this time that Lu Zhen stood up from the ground, and looked at Yan Chong, who was still trembling slightly in front of him, with a slightly blue face, and his heart was full of anger! The other party actually set up an assassin here early on, if it weren't for his luck, I'm afraid that it would not be Yan Chong Dao who was shot.

But even so, it was not good news for him, and he hadn't yet asked for the key answer from the other party's mouth. Thinking of this, Lu Zhen had already hurried over and asked his subordinates who were checking Lao Dao's injuries: "Is his injury serious?" ”

"This arrow has broken his heart, I'm afraid it's ......" The man replied with palpitations, but it made Lu Jin's heart even tighter, until Yan Yan sighed softly: "Poor Dao...... I had calculated that there would be such a catastrophe in the near future, but it should be ...... today."

"Dao Chief...... Lu Zhen stepped forward with some self-reproach, his face full of guilt. Because he felt that he had hurt the other party, if he hadn't come to this Baiyun Temple to inquire about the news, there would have been no such thing.

Yan Chong shook his head slightly, spitting blood, and said, "This is all providential...... It was Poor Dao who wanted to leak the secret of heaven this time, so there would be this catastrophe. ”

"Heavenly Machine? What heavenly machine? Lu Zhen hurriedly asked, he could see that the other party couldn't hold out for too long.

"The game of the five elements is just the beginning, and the dragon slashing array is their real purpose......

"What dragon slashing array?"

"My lord, although the five elements you see are inside the case, in fact, the outside is the inside, the five elements, and the seven ......" Lao Dao said this, his body suddenly shook, and his voice was broken.

"Seven what?" Lu Jin knew that the other party was about to say the key point, so he quickly stretched out his hand and pushed the other party, and asked hurriedly. As a result, under this push, Yan Chong's head tilted, and he stopped moving completely, but he was killed.

Mingyue, who was on the side of "Master's ......", knelt down and cried bitterly again when she saw this, and Lu Zhen was also entangled and dazed, things were only a thin line, why didn't he tell the inside story? What exactly does this seven refer to? What are the five elements, and what is the outside being the inside? For a moment, his whole head was a mess, and he didn't have a clue.

After a long while, Yao Gan rushed back a little stupidly. Zhao Jie saw that he was empty-handed and couldn't take the prisoner with him, so he asked clearly, "Didn't you gain anything?" ”

"When I chased out, I only saw a figure fleeing, chasing for three or five miles, but I still let him run ......away," he said, he glanced at Lu Zhen again, clenched his fists and bowed his head: "If you don't do your job effectively, please punish you." ”

Lu Zhen collected his mind and waved his hand: "That's it, the other party has already prepared, so he naturally has thought of a way to get out, and it is not your responsibility to catch up." What's more, if you hadn't reacted in time to save you, I'm afraid that the official would have been inevitably injured, so in terms of it, you are not only innocent, but meritorious. ”

"The lord has an overreputation, and his subordinates are ashamed." Yao Gan said, his eyes drooped, and then fell on Yan Chong's corpse, and then his face changed: "This is a bamboo arrow?" ”

Lu Zhen nodded, stretched out his hand and pulled out the arrow that had been shot deep into Yan Chong's chest, and everyone could see that this was indeed a complete bamboo arrow, and even the arrow was sharpened with a knife.

At this moment, even Zhao Jie's face changed: "Could it be that the last ring of wood in the Five Elements of Murder refers to this?" As a member of the people involved in this case, he certainly has an understanding of the saying that the five elements are born together.

Lu Zhen took a closer look at the bamboo arrow, sighed softly and said, "Bamboo is also a kind of wood, it seems that it should be on the scene for this assassination." The murderer's purpose was completely accomplished. ”

Jiang Chong was burned to death with fire, Xu Tongzhou was buried alive with grain, Sun Fang was killed with a knife, Chen Shi was drowned in the well water, and Yan Chong died under the bamboo arrow today...... Fire, earth, gold, water and wood, the whole ceremony of the five elements has been completely completed!

After understanding this, everyone, including Lu Jin, shuddered, feeling that the situation was already extremely serious. Even if Lu Zhen is an atheist and doesn't believe much in these gods, he doesn't feel a chill when he sees that the other party is so deliberate to complete the five elements killing game.

"Governor, what should we do next?" All the subordinates looked at him with confused eyes, and they could only count on their own adults at this time.

Lu Zhen took two deep breaths and suppressed the confusion in his heart before saying, "I still think it's just those thieves pretending to be ghosts." Even if this so-called Five Elements Killing Array really made them complete, wouldn't it still be lit up this day? There is no vision. So don't panic because of this, just keep looking for clues and look down. They have done so many things and killed so many people, and there will always be flaws! ”

"As for now, let's go back to the Zhenfu Division first." Lu Zhen said, glanced at Mingyue, the little Taoist boy who was still kneeling in front of Yan Chong, and ordered: "Ask someone to bury Daoist Yan Chong, and send Mingyue to other Taoist temples to be settled." "What he is most concerned about now is what Lao Dao mentioned before he died, this name makes people uneasy when he hears it, so he has to hurry back to find relevant clues.

@@@@@

"That Five Elements Killing Array actually made it happen?" After listening to Lu Jin's story, Cui Heng asked with an uneasy face.

Lu Zhen glanced at him: "Yes, the other party can always be one step ahead of me, and the arrangement is done early, which is really frustrating." After a pause, he said, "Have you ever heard of something called the Dragon Slashing Array?" ”

"Dragon Cutting Array......" Cui Heng frowned deeply, and only after a long time did his body shake, and when he looked up, there was obviously a bit of panic in his eyes. When Lu Jin saw it, he hurriedly asked, "What did you think of?" ”

"Xia Guan did hear people mention it a few years ago, and I heard that it was an extremely strange and powerful secret magic circle in ancient times. It must be activated by the power of heaven and earth. And as soon as the ...... was activated," he said, pausing again.

"What happens once it's activated?"

"Once activated, it has the power to cut the dragon, and it can be ...... The supreme in the world killed ......" The last few words were said very lightly, and after finishing speaking, Cui Heng trembled again.

This time, Lu Jin's face also turned a little pale. The supreme in the world, in today's Ming Dynasty, there is naturally only one person in this Beijing city, and that is Zhu Qiyu, the son of today!

"Cutting the dragon......" Lu Zhen muttered in his mouth, and he understood, the emperor is also known as the true dragon emperor, and this dragon cutting array is going to kill, isn't it this dragon?

"It's just that this formation is extremely difficult to launch, there are many restrictions, and it has been lost for many years, how can those thieves know how to use this?" Cui Heng then said with some doubts.

Lu Zhen shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to investigate why they understand this formation, the most important thing is how to prevent them from really launching the Dragon Slashing Formation!" "Even if Lu Zhen no longer believes in ghosts and gods, he doesn't feel a little worried after the other party forcibly kills the Five Elements Array.

Although it is easy for later generations to classify these things that the gods and gods are talking about as superstition, who can guarantee that there is no means to achieve a certain end by the power of heaven and earth in this great world? There are some things, when you are in the game, you can only believe that they exist, but you can't believe that they don't exist.

"This ...... The next official is unknown. Cui Heng's face was full of confusion, he was just a little interested in such things, how could he really understand the secrets? Not to mention the Dragon Slashing Array, an ancient formation that has only been known for its name and has been lost for hundreds of years.

"How is this good? Do you want to find Taoist priests all over the capital and inquire about relevant matters with them? Lu Zhen frowned in distress: "But in this way, it will inevitably cause panic in Beijing, and this mess will be big." ”

"Of course, this can't be done, what ordinary Taoist priests know is just some alchemy tricks...... Only with a Taoist method like Yan Chong can everyone understand these ancient secret methods. It's a pity that he has already been poisoned......" Cui Heng hurriedly shook his head and denied: "And judging from the success of the Five Elements Killing Bureau, those thieves are likely to be about to drive this dragon slashing array." ”

Lu Zhen really couldn't sit still now, so he got up and paced in the hall: "Can't I find a second person in Beijing who knows these Dao methods like Na Yanchong?" ”

"Taoism...... The number of ......" Cui Heng had words in his mouth, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Yes, maybe they can help!" ”

"Who?" Lu Zhen hurriedly paused, turned to him, and asked urgently.

"Officials in the Qin Heavenly Prison!" Cui Heng immediately said his answer: "There are all kinds of secret books that have been handed down for thousands of years, maybe someone there will know about it!" ”
