Chapter 61: Clouds Shroud
"That's not right!" Lu Sheng immediately denied Qi Zhangmen's statement, "The oath engraved on the wall is nothing more than two purposes, one is for himself and the other is for us."
If it had been for us to see, then he would have known that we would find it here. He must have prepared or set up an ambush, but the outside of this cave was extremely secretive, and it was obvious that he didn't want us to find out. There are no traps set up here.
If it was for him to see, then it should have been engraved decades ago to motivate himself. Second, you can see that these wooden bed seats, although they are simple, the wood is still new, as if they were made recently.
And these pots and pans are all new, and the time must not be more than a year. If it is inferred like this, the Netherworld Ghost King should have only recently come to Jingyang Gate. In other words, the Nether Ghost King used to heal elsewhere.
In that case, why don't you wait for your martial arts to fully recover before you do it?"
"Lord Lu, what do you think?" Mei Qihua and these martial arts people don't think so much, they are used to turning what they see into reality. So Lu Sheng said this, but they didn't know it.
"I think this is the Nether Demon King's old suspicion, and this is definitely not his residence. But if not, why would he be suspicious? I can't figure it out. β
Suddenly, Lu Sheng's eyes sharpened.
On both sides of the mountain wall, two deep pits attracted Lu Sheng's attention. Lu Sheng came to the edge of the deep pit, which was about the size of a bowl and more than half a foot deep. The deep pits on both sides are parallel, and it is clear that this is not a natural formation.
Moreover, the edges of the pit are badly worn, and the time is very long. These two deep pits are probably the only evidence that can prove the long time.
In the corner of the mountain wall of the deep pit, Lu Sheng really found some golden hair. In this era, there is no such thing as hair dyeing, and the color of hair is naturally natural.
When Lu Sheng picked up the hair, everyone gathered around.
"The Ghost King's hair, it's definitely him! Thirty years ago, he was full of blonde hair and looked like a demon, I can't be mistaken. β
The hair is dull and covered with dust. Judging from these scattered hairs, the Nether Ghost King has been here for a long time.
This discovery instantly overturned all of Lu Sheng's previous speculations. This is indeed the residence of the Nether Ghost King, not a maze.
"Strange...... Is it really because the Netherworld Ghost King just happened to change a batch of objects?" Lu Sheng said suspiciously, "Master Meimeng, we still need to expand the scope of our search, the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, this may not be the only residence of the Netherworld Ghost King. β
"Understand, fellow martial artists, let's continue to search, the Netherworld Ghost King must be not far from here. β
Lu Sheng and the others returned to Jingyangmen to wait for news, and the disciples of various factions in Suzhou once again searched for the past. Because of the progress of the Qinglian Gate, the originally somewhat loose heart was once again tensed.
For two days, but nothing was gained.
Lu Sheng and Mei Qihua stood on the edge of the cliff in the backyard of Jingyangmen, looking at the dense green mountains and dense forests in the distance.
"Lord Meimeng, I've been deducing the murderer's modus operandi these days. This opened up another possibility that made me uneasy. Lu Sheng said leisurely.
"What is possible?" asked Mei Qihua with a solemn face.
"The Nether King may not be acting as the Nether King. β
"What do you mean?"
"Not to mention the death of the disciples of Jingyang Gate, it is not difficult to be silent with the martial arts of the Netherworld Ghost King. However, the killing of Elder Zuo Qi in the back mountain that day made me see many doubts.
If I went to track it down because I had discovered the clues of the Nether Ghost King, with Elder Zuo Qi's cautious personality, I wouldn't have left me and the Crane Master to go alone, right?"
"Do you suspect that Zuo Qi didn't follow him to the back mountain because he found something?"
"Yes! In that case, either it was led over, or Zuo Qi wanted to confirm something. But...... If the other party is the Netherworld Ghost King, I don't think Elder Zuo Qi will take any risks. β
"You're saying that man isn't the Nether King?"
"I'm just skeptical right now, but it's really not that I'm not sure. β
"If it weren't for the Nether King...... Could it be a crane and an aries?" Mei Qihua's voice landed, and his eyes flashed with sharp killing intent.
It seems that Lu Sheng is not the only one who has ever suspected Crane White Aries.
The matter came out of Jingyangmen, and the murderer appeared in Jingyangmen, no matter what, Crane Aries is the primary target of suspicion.
"If the Nether Ghost King had someone else, then Crane Aries would naturally be the first to be suspected. But on the night that Elder Zuo Qi was killed, that person made a big fuss about Jingyangmen and killed four disciples of Jingyangmen.
At the time of the incident, Crane Aries was by my side. The possibility that Crane Aries is the murderer can be ruled out. β
"Newspaperβ"
Suddenly, a loud shout interrupted the conversation between Lu Sheng and Mei Qihua, "Report to the alliance leader......!" Qi Sect Master has been killed!"
"Killed, where is it?" Mei Qihua suddenly felt a little confused, the head of Qi was killed, and there was no sound or even a little movement.
However, the head of Qi is a master at the pinnacle of the day after tomorrow, even if he is defeated, it is impossible to be killed without resistance?
"In the back mountain, not far from the place where Elder Zuo Qi was killed. β
Lu Sheng and Mei Qihua hurriedly rushed over, and at this moment, the scene was already surrounded by disciples from various sects. The disciples of the Qinglian Sect cried even more.
Mei Qihua and Lu Sheng came to the corpse of the head of Qi and carefully looked at the body of the head of Qi. There were no obvious scars on his body, but there was a deep horror on his face.
There were no traces of fighting at the scene, and it was clear that the head of Qi was killed by the Nether Ghost King without any resistance.
But how is this possible?
Although the martial arts of the head of Qi cannot be regarded as the peak, the peak of the day after one is definitely not worthy. Let's ask, who of the five major leaders is not proud of the entire Suzhou martial arts?
However, the Netherworld King was able to kill him silently?
Even Lu Sheng, who was in the innate realm, couldn't do it.
If it was a sneak attack, then Qi Zhangmen's face would not have left such a clear and obvious expression of horror. But if it weren't for a sneak attack, would it be necessary for the Nether Ghost King's martial arts to hide his head and show his tail if he was so high?
In an instant, everyone's mood became extremely silent.
After being silent for many days, I thought that the Netherworld King was intimidated by their mighty voice. But now it seems that these days are peaceful, purely because the Netherworld Ghost King is in a good mood.
"Sirβ"
With a sad cry, he suddenly remembered that the wife of the head of Qi came in the hug of the disciples. Seeing Qi Zhangmen, who had fallen to the ground and had died, he let out a heart-wrenching cry.
Lu Sheng glanced back, but Guan Yue, the disciple who had impressed him, was not among the disciples.
The master was killed, and as a disciple, he didn't come at the first time?
"Everyone, search around and see if there are any other clues......"
After Mei Qihua gave the order, the disciples of the various factions immediately spread out in all directions. And Lu Sheng slowly squatted down and looked at the lady in charge of Qi.
This lady looked very young, at least twenty years younger than the head of Qi. Mrs. Qi looks like a flower and moon, and she looks weak, without the slightest chivalrous masculinity of the children of the rivers and lakes, but more like a rich daughter who is charming and charming.
Although the disciples of Jingyangmen were grieving one by one, each of them endured tears with red eyes, and only the world where Mrs. Qi cried changed color.
Lu Sheng comforted a few words, and then slowly stood up.
"Why did the murderer choose this place? Elder Zuo Qi is like this, and now Sect Leader Qi is like this?"
"Master Mei League, there is a discovery!" At this time, the disciples of the Huhai Alliance in the distance strode over.
"Master, we have found a cave a mile away. The cave is cold, like a cold winter wax moon. However, it doesn't seem to be inhabited. β
Lu Sheng and the others hurriedly followed the disciple to go, and sure enough, in the mountains, they found a cave. Before he could get closer, a chill erupted from outside the cave.
There was a cloud of white mist gathered throughout the cave, and the white mist was rolling, like an ethereal fairyland.
"It's here!" Lu Jian, who followed Lu Sheng, suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Here?" Lu Sheng glanced at the cave suspiciously, "Lu Jian, this is the cave you arrived at after falling into the cold pool?"
"Yes, this is the place where the undercurrent of the cold pool arrives in the cold pool in this cave. β
Lu Sheng entered in a group of people, if it weren't for the fact that all of them had supreme internal strength, this chill alone was enough to freeze people in an instant.
The cold air is cold, even if the luck is resisted, the disciples with low cultivation will not be able to bear it. can barely bear it, and there are only a few heads.
Although this strange cave was discovered, it is clear that the cave is not suitable for human life. If a person does not move in the cave, it will not be long before he is frozen.
Moreover, the cave is also a primitive appearance, which has not changed for thousands of years. There is no trace of human activity, and there is no sign of life, this is a territory of silent death.
After a long time, even Lu Sheng and the others couldn't support it, and walked out of the cave one by one.
"Lord Lu, you said that this cave is ......"
"Do you remember that there is a cold pool in the mountain behind Jingyangmen? There is an undercurrent at the bottom of the cold pool, and the undercurrent can be connected to this cave. But...... This undercurrent is extremely cold, and Lu Jian once came down from the undercurrent but was deeply cold and poisonous. If you don't meet me, this life will not be saved. β
As for what happened in Jingyangmen, all the sects have heard about it. And this time the Netherworld Ghost King was also caused by this incident. So when Lu Sheng said this, the major leaders still understood.
It's just that Hantan can be connected to the outside, and they really don't know.
When Lu Sheng's voice landed, the various sects had no other expressions, but Lu Sheng was suddenly stunned. It wasn't until Mei Qihua shouted for a long time that Lu Sheng came back to his senses.
"Lord Lu, what's wrong with you?
"No! nothing. Let's take back the body of Qi Zhangmen first. The Nether Ghost King is now only doing these small tricks of sneak attacks. We must restrain our disciples and never act alone. β
After the group returned to Jingyang Gate, they had just completed the arrangement of the memorial platform. Suddenly, the disciples of the Qinglian Sect were in a commotion again.
"Alliance Leader...... Oh no...... Senior Brother Guan Yue...... Senior Brother Guan Yue was also killed......" The senior disciple of the Qinglian Sect hurriedly rushed into the spiritual hall and said with a panicked expression.
