Chapter 62: Disloyalty and Unfilial Piety
"What, take us there!" Lu Sheng's eyes were solemn, did the things he had guessed before finally have to be confirmed?
The group went and came to the station of the White Lotus Gate.
Guan Yue's impression of Lu Sheng before was very good, high-spirited, lofty, neither humble nor arrogant. But at this moment, he had his limbs broken, his throat choked, and he fell to the ground like a mess of mud.
No matter how graceful a person is, there is no style at all after death. While Lu Sheng regretted it, he also felt irrepressible anger at the murderer's cruelty.
Lu Sheng has solved countless cases in his life, but Lu Sheng has not encountered many murderers like this murder and extermination of humanity. Most murders have reasons that they think are justified, but this murderer, while killing people, wants to break the limbs of the deceased, this is pure psychological pathology.
Guan Yue's face was full of horror, and her round eyes were bloodshot. Before dying, he must have endured unimaginable pain.
"Didn't you hear anything?"
"I didn't ...... There is no ......"
"Something happened to the master, and we all rushed to ...... No one noticed Senior Brother Guan Yue......"
"Yes, originally Senior Brother Guan Yue was the best candidate for the future head of the family......
The disciples of the Qinglian Sect said one by one, and the chatter made Lu Sheng have a headache.
"Lord Lu, he said that Guan Yue was originally the future successor of the head of the Qi sect, and he was killed, could it have something to do with this?" the spider gently leaned into Lu Sheng's ear and asked.
"It's unlikely!" Lu Sheng stepped forward and touched Guan Yue, who was already cold.
"The modus operandi of the murder is exactly the same as the method of killing Hou Yong, and it can be concluded that it was committed by the same person. Before he died, he showed fear, but he couldn't make a sound. Not surprisingly, he died under the reincarnation tomb. β
"Reincarnation Heavenly Tomb, Lord Lu, do you mean...... Guan Yue was killed by the Nether Ghost King?"
"The Netherworld Ghost King has been able to kill Elder Zuo Qi, and he can kill the head of Qi silently, and his martial arts should already be above everyone.
In the past, we always thought that the Nether Ghost King was a person, a loner. But now, it dawned on me that I was wrong.
Starting from Jingyangmen, first Hou Yong, then Chu Jing, and now Guan Yue. On the other side, the Netherworld Ghost King killed first Elder Zuo Qi, and then the head of Qi.
These are two distinct lines, one for the masters of the Suzhou Martial Arts League, and the other for the disciples. β
"What's the matter? Didn't the Netherworld Ghost King say that he wanted Suzhou Wulin Chicken Dog not to stay?" said the head of Tianyangmen Zhao disapprovingly.
"That's not the case, and it's just a cruel thing to keep the chickens and dogs. If you can really do not leave the chickens and dogs, even if Suzhou Wulin lines up to let him kill him, how long can he kill alone?"
"This ......," Zhao nodded solemnly.
"I guess that in addition to being healing for the past thirty years, the Netherworld Ghost King should have cultivated a disciple.
Back then, the Netherworld Ghost King was seriously injured and couldn't even take care of himself. So the Nether Ghost King cultivated a disciple. And this disciple was beaten into the Jingyang Gate.
This is also why, the first case to be killed was Jingyangmen. This disciple, while living in Jingyang Gate, has also been taking care of the Netherworld Ghost King. And as this chess piece that entered Jingyangmen, his identity must be very unnoticeable. Maybe it's a disciple, maybe it's a servant. β
After Lu Sheng finished speaking, he silently turned his face to look at the pale crane and white sheep, "Because this person will not arouse suspicion, he can kill Hou Yong unknowingly."
And because of the necessity of concealing his identity, he must have lived a very humble life and been bullied all the time. Only then did he develop his distorted mentality, if he followed this clue, the crane master should be able to lock on to the target soon, right?"
Everyone's eyes were on the crane and the aries, and the eyes were self-evident, that is, they wanted the crane and the aries to give an explanation.
The face of the crane and white sheep kept changing, and his eyes flashed with thought. But after a long time, Crane Aries still shook his head silently, "Jingyangmen is very loving from top to bottom, and there is no such person as Lord Lu speculated. β
"There is love, the head of the crane should not deceive himself. Your disciples can do anything to rape and kill their fellow disciples...... Where is love?" Zhao Zhangmen shouted without yin or yang.
This sentence is the scar of the crane and the white sheep nakedly. In an instant, Crane Baiyang's face turned iron-blue, he bit his lip tightly, and stared at Zhao Zhangmen angrily.
"Master Zhao, what happened to Jingyangmen is not because of the head of the crane. Haven't you ever had one or two disobedient and unfilial disciples in Tianyangmen?" Mei Qihua hurriedly shouted.
As the leader of the martial arts alliance, he must nip in the bud the signs that affect internal unity. The occurrence of such a thing in Jingyangmen has already caused serious damage to the reputation of Jingyangmen, and it is not the right way to sprinkle salt on the wounds of fellow Daoists.
"Think about it again, who is often criticized in the door, or who behaves strangely and is more withdrawn?"
"If there is, there is one. But the man is dead. The head of the crane sighed deeply, "My fifth disciple, Hou Yong, is a person with a dull personality. He is not good at words, does not like to communicate, and is often squeezed by his brothers and sisters.
But it was mostly a joke among the brothers, and Hou Yong never took it to heart. β
"Then who does Hou Yong have the best relationship with?" Lu Sheng then asked.
"Hou Yong has a withdrawn temperament and rarely talks to people, so gradually no one thinks of him. To be honest, sometimes I, as a master, often can't remember that there is such a disciple. His martial arts were all taught by Qin Er on behalf of his teacher. β
"No one else is suspicious?" Lu Sheng asked unwillingly.
"No more. Crane Aries thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and said.
Lu Sheng carefully searched Guan Yue's body and found no clues. There were no footprints or handprints left in the whole room. There were no clues, so Lu Sheng and the others had no choice but to leave the Qinglian Gate's station and go to the mourning hall.
Before the mourning hall, Mrs. Qi had already stopped crying, and the slight sobbing was really pitiful.
Wearing linen and filial piety, he put paper money into the brazier with a sluggish expression.
"Mrs. Qi, the mourning is changing, we will definitely catch the real culprit to comfort Brother Qi's soul in the sky. Mei Qihua solemnly promised.
"Thank you, Lord Meimen, you must find out the real murderer as soon as possible to avenge my husband. β
"Mrs. Qi, did he show anything unusual before Master Qi's accident?" Lu Sheng asked softly.
"No, these days, my husband seems to be in a good mood. Laughing heartily from time to time. This morning, I went out very early. I asked him where he was going, but he didn't tell me and just left.
But I don't want to see him again, but he has been victimized by a traitor......" As she spoke, Mrs. Qi picked up her handkerchief again and covered the corners of her eyes and cried bitterly.
"Feeling good?" Lu Sheng asked suspiciously, "The Netherworld Ghost King is hiding in the dark and may sneak attack at any time, and all the sects and factions are nervous. And all of a sudden, he's in a good mood, since when did he start that?"
"It's the ...... that started three days ago"
Three days ago, it was the cave where the Nether Ghost King was discovered began. But Lu Sheng: They didn't find any clues in the cave. But Qi Zhangmen was the first to find the cave and enter to explore. Could it be that the head of Qi found a more powerful clue that day?
But...... Why did the head of Qi keep his mouth shut and not say a word?
Lu Sheng couldn't figure it out, but he didn't say it. The head of Qi is dead, and the secrets he discovered are naturally lost because of his death.
Although the incident of Qi Zhangmen happened, the Suzhou Wulin League will not stop searching. As the scope of the search expanded, the search became slower and more difficult.
Although there are only three peaks in the back mountain, the trees are dense and thorny, and poisonous insects are rampant because of the dampness, heat and humidity. The disciples of each sect need to be extra careful when searching, in case they are bitten by poisonous insects, it is very likely to be fatal.
The head of the Qinglian Sect died unexpectedly, which was an extremely fatal blow to the morale of the Suzhou Martial Arts League. Three days later, Mrs. Qi and a few disciples planned to lead the corpse of the head of Qi back to handle the funeral.
Mei Qihua naturally had no reason to stop him, and was just about to send someone to send the body of Qi Zhangmen back, when suddenly a fierce quarrel sounded outside the door.
"I am the eldest disciple of Qinglian Sect, and the position of head of the sect should be inherited by me, second junior brother, what are you dissatisfied with?"
"Hmph, Senior Brother, although you are a senior disciple, you are not the chief disciple of the Qinglian Sect, so why should you inherit it?"
"Senior Brother Guan has been killed, the master and the chief disciple have passed away, and it is only natural that I will inherit the position of head of the family. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you say?"
"Jokes, the head of Qinglian Sect has always been virtuous and not long. The master was not a big disciple back then, and there were few big disciples in the past generations, so it is nothing for you to rely on the title of senior brother. β
"What does the second junior brother mean...... You're smarter than me?"
"Children of the rivers and lakes, heroes are judged by martial arts. The senior brother is the first to worship the master, and the martial arts should be the highest. The younger brother is not talented, but he wants to ask for a lesson or two. β
Listening to the conversation outside, Mrs. Qi's face darkened, but her face was full of helplessness.
Although he is the wife of the head of Qi, she herself has no martial arts, she was a master when the head of Qi was still alive, but once the head of Qi died, she had no prestige.
The disciples fought for the position of the head of the sect, and she was helpless. The reason why he was in such a hurry to leave was also because he didn't want Qinglian Sect to be embarrassed in front of many sects. But don't want to...... The disciples actually quarreled outside the Alliance Leader's Gathering Hall.
And when Mei Qihua heard these words, he was even more angry. A body of internal force rippled, and the visible internal force rushed out of the gate of the Juyi Hall like a dragon and rushed out of the hall.
"Bastardβ"
There was a loud cry and thunder, and the disciples of the two sides who were fighting instantly stopped their hands. And the swords in the hands of the eldest disciple and the second disciple were also shattered by Mei Qihua's domineering internal force.
"Poof-" The two of them spat blood and flew away.
"Brother Qi has just been killed, and your bones are not cold, as his disciples, you don't want to avenge your teacher, and you are still killing each other in front of Brother Qi's spirit. Such a disloyal and unfilial person still vainly tries to be the head of the house? The old man really wants to slap you two bastards who deceived teachers and destroyed ancestors to death with one palm. β
