Chapter 13: The Hidden Plot

Lu Qingshan took the King of the West Rat and quickly left the Chaotic Stone Forest.

"Where are we going?"

Looking at Lu Qingshan, who had not said a word since he left the Chaotic Stone Forest, the West Rat King hesitated for a long time, but he couldn't help but ask.

"Genshan Castle!"

King Xirat actually wanted to ask Lu Qingshan, since he had confessed everything he should have explained, could he let himself go.

Following Lu Qingshan made him so scared.

But seeing Lu Qingshan's solemn face, he didn't dare to ask after all.

It's so hard to be a rat!

......

After walking for a while, a majestic majestic city appeared in front of Lu Qingshan's eyes.

Yuanshan City, one of the one hundred and eight county towns under the command of Zhenjiang Prefecture.

As a county seat, there are dozens of large and small immortal cultivation families and three Yipin sects stationed near Yuanshan City.

Standing outside Yuanshan City, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but be reminded of a trace of memory.

The one hundred and eight county towns of Zhenjiang Prefecture are the birthplace of "Nine Days" players, in other words, a novice village.

Although the novice village in his previous life was not Yuanshan City, but another county town, he couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy when he saw this familiar style.

Lu Qingshan went straight into the city, and he was not questioned at the city gate, nor was he charged the so-called entrance fee, but the black rat on his shoulder made the city guards surprised.

Are there any old rats in these years?

The roads in the city are paved with bluestone slabs, clean and tidy, and countless pedestrians, business travelers, and stalls selling snacks have crowded the originally spacious streets into a bustling and lively city.

In this kind of world with demons, demons, and immortals, human towns, both economically and in all aspects, are far more prosperous than the ancient world on the scientific side.

Lu Qingshan found an inn at random, asked for a room, ordered some wine and food, and drank alone in the room.

The Rat King looked left and right for a moment, and finally couldn't help but jump on the table and join in.

Lu Qingshan glanced at the West Rat King, but didn't say anything.

He needs to calm down now, put aside all distractions, and put his thoughts in order.

The pool of blood that appeared in advance, but was never mentioned in the plot record, made Lu Qingshan feel that something was not right.

He could feel a fog shrouded in the history that preceded the Corpse Golem Rebellion.

And what he has to do is to break through this fog through the huge amount of information he has.

First of all, the existence of a blood pool must have its meaning of existence, and it is impossible for a demon cultivator to establish a blood pool without a purpose.

Since there is a purpose, there will be a result whether it succeeds or fails.

The beginning and passage of a thing may be well hidden, but the result cannot be hidden, because no matter what the result is, it will inevitably have a great impact.

Just like the prince forced the palace in ancient times, if it was carefully planned, everything might be silent before the result came out, but as long as the result is settled, whether it is failure or success, it will be recorded in the history books.

However, looking back at the historical plot records, it is true that there is no incident related to this blood pool thousands of miles away from Zhenjiang City.

Well, there is only one possibility, and it exists in a more subtle way in the record.

Then you have to work backwards through the results, which thing has to do with the blood pool!

Lu Qingshan dipped his fingers in some wine and gestured on the table.

He wants to go through the major events that happened near Yuanshan City this year.

When he just stayed in the hotel, he asked the shopkeeper to confirm the current time.

Chang'an 20,000 years.

It was also the last year of this era, and a few months later, the Corpse Puppet Rebellion began.

After the Corpse Puppet Rebellion ended, Tianji Guan took the initiative to use the Tianji Mirror to detect the Heavenly Machine.

In an instant, the head full of flowers occurred, and the Heavenly Machine Viewer who had reached the realm of Mahayana, in an instant, the longevity was exhausted, and he left the last sentence before he died: The abyss has arrived, and from then on, the sky will fall into turmoil.

In the second year, the Great Xia royal family changed the era name to Xianwu.

This year, all everyone's attention was attracted by the Corpse Puppet Rebellion and the immortal death of the Heavenly Machine Viewer, so many other details, not many people cared about, and they were drowned in the long river of history.

However, Lu Qingshan is different, he has studied the plot of "Nine Days" in depth.

Names flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind.

He's sifting through useful information.

Suddenly, a very inconspicuous record in the vast historical record quietly appeared in front of Lu Qingshan's eyes.

Historical records, in the middle of the 20,000th year of Chang'an, on July 15, one of the Seven Great Dao Sects, the Tianji Temple, which was stationed in Zhenjiang Mansion, lost a Tianji mirror near Yuanshan City.

Due to the immortal death of the Lord at the end of the year, the entire Heavenly Machine Temple was in mourning.

In the Year of Xianwu, the big things are one after another, so this matter drags on, and it will not be over.

This disappearing celestial mirror storyboard has become an unsolved case.

The Tianji Mirror is the Zhenzong Taoist instrument of the Tianji View, which can pass through the spiritual machine of heaven and earth, the cause and effect of the world, and has the ability to detect the heavenly machine and avoid disasters.

In addition, the Tianji Mirror also has a very important ability, that is, it can differentiate into many storyboards, and the storyboard can also have a small part of the power of the Tianji Mirror itself.

Because of the magic of the Heavenly Machine Mirror, the Great Xia Imperial Family reserved a position of guardian in each prefecture, and let the disciples of the Heavenly Machine Observatory who carried the Heavenly Machine Mirror Storyboard serve to guard the mansion.

Tianjiguan monitors the world!

For this historical record, Lu Qingshan has not been able to understand.

The supervisor of Zhenjiang Mansion, that is a fourth-order Yuanying monk, why did he appear in the small county town of Yuanshan City for no reason, and he also lost such an important celestial machine mirror here.

Wrong!

Thinking of the blood pool that appeared near Yuanshan City, Lu Qingshan already smelled a smell of conspiracy.

A...... Is the plot hidden?

Lu Qingshan's eyes gradually brightened, he thought secretly in his heart, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.

[Heavenly Machine Mirror] detects the heavenly machine, such a treacherous creation ability, in fact, there are many limitations, for example, many times, the heavenly machine detected by using the heavenly machine mirror is often just a specious picture.

This requires the monk to analyze and study the meaning of these images.

And this point can often be used by people with intentions to deliberately create some illusions to mislead people who use the Tianji Mirror.

Yes.

The blood pool is such an important thing, how could the phantom array that hides it suddenly fail, and there is not even a caretaker.

Obviously, it was the demon cultivators who deliberately withdrew the formation, allowing the blood pool to appear in the Heavenly Machine Mirror, attracting the Zhenjiang Mansion guards to this place.

In order to avoid revealing their identity in the Heavenly Machine Mirror, the demon cultivator needs to stay away from the place where the blood pool is located.

Even though this matter seems extremely strange, how could the disciples of the Heavenly Machine Sect, as the guardians of the world, ignore it, and will inevitably come to find out.

The purpose of doing this is also very simple, what has been lost by the Zhenjiang Mansion guards, that is the purpose of the demon cultivators.

Sky Mirror Storyboard!

If the Heavenly Machine Mirror Storyboard was still there, how could Zhenjiang Mansion City be defenseless and slaughtered by demon cultivators!

Thinking of this, Lu Qingshan's eyes were deep, and he remembered one more thing.

After losing the Celestial Mirror storyboard, Zhenjiang Prefecture sent a large number of monks from the prefecture and stationed in the major counties.

Therefore, when the corpse puppet rebellion was in full swing, the corpse puppets attacked the major county towns under the guise of attacking, although the momentum was huge, but the actual killing caused was not terrifying.

However, Zhenjiang Mansion City is full of white bones!

Why did this happen, now Lu Qingshan understands.

The guards of Zhenjiang Mansion were most likely misled by this blood pool that appeared near Yuanshan City.

It is believed that the purpose of demon cultivators is only these small counties.

But he didn't expect that in this operation, the demon cultivator's heart would be so big that he was ready to make a move on Fucheng, and he succeeded.
