Chapter 15: The Messenger

"Just this afternoon. The man stared at Lin Jiu with a fixed gaze, and seeing that his expression was calm and without the slightest flustery, he slowly spoke.

"I see, it is said that the Yingyue Sect is about to open the door to the south of the sword to accept disciples, and it is normal for spiritual battles to occur in the city, what is the intention of Your Excellency to tell me this news?" Lin Jiu's eyes were cold, and he stared at the man opposite and asked.

Seeing that Lin Jiu had seen through his intentions, the man immediately snorted and left his seat with an excuse.

"It seems that the fat head is really not a good stubble, but fortunately, I saw the opportunity early and killed a few people. Thinking of this, Lin Jiu asked for another pot of good wine, and didn't get up and go back until it was getting late.

At this time, the news of the killing of the fat head and others in Jiannan City had already spread among the various spiritual families.

Although the major families did not express their stance on the death of the lackey of the Yingyue Sect on the surface, they were secretly very happy, and the fat head had relied on the name of the Yingyue Sect to yell at them over the years, which made them angry, and it was really a cycle of karma and retribution.

Just as Lin Jiu was wandering towards the inn, in an attic in the northwest corner of Jiannan City, a tall and thin man in green clothes was drinking tea comfortably, and in the courtyard not far from it, the bodies of the four fat-headed people were lying there upright, obviously dead for a long time.

"Haven't you found out who the killer is?" asked the man, looking at the fat round corpse with a look of disgust.

"Envoy, there are not many clues left at the scene, and now Jiannan City is mixed, it is really not easy to find the murderer, I have ordered all the outer disciples to go out to investigate, and once they find an abnormality, they will report back immediately. A man of twenty-seven or eighteen beside him said respectfully.

"You must find out the murderer for me!" the man shook it hard, and the teacup in his hand instantly turned into powder and drifted away.

"Lord Envoy, although this fat head is nominally an outer disciple of my Reflecting Moon Sect, it is normal for this person to be corrupt and bend the law and seek revenge from others, why should the Envoy be so angry about this person?" the young man asked cautiously.

"What's the point of the fat head, I'm afraid that the person will expose what the fat head has done and ruin the reputation of my Yingyue Sect, otherwise why should I care about these dogs?" said the messenger, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

The young man beside him tightened his heart, and his demeanor became more and more respectful: "Don't worry, Lord Messenger, even if I dig three feet into the ground, I will find out the murderer." ”

The man in Tsing Yi nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's very good, you go and check who all the entry invitations sold by Fat Tou these days are sold to, and see if there is any problem." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'll go. The young man bowed respectfully and stepped back.

"Drag the body out and dispose of it for me, and I'm upset when I look at it. The man in Tsing Yi said with a displeased face.

As soon as the man in Tsing Yi finished speaking, he saw two big men walking in quickly, and the two of them came out with both hands, and lifted the fat head four out like dead pigs.

Lin Jiu returned to the inn and immediately took out the entry invitation in his hand.

"At noon on the 20th of this month, at the southern foot of Qingfeng Mountain in the east of the city. ”

In addition to the small print, the invitation also contained a map of the area, detailing the route map from Jiannan City to Qingfeng Mountain.

Noting down the time, Lin Jiu secretly calculated in his heart that this place was less than a hundred miles away from Qingfeng Mountain in the east of the city, and if there was a camel antelope to travel, it would only take half a day at most to arrive.

Calculating the time, there are still three or four days until the 20th, and there is no hurry, but now that Jiannan City is mixed, plus he killed the fat head, it is better to leave early.

After some consideration, Lin Jiu finally decided to go out of the city early the next morning to avoid unnecessary trouble.

In the past few days, Jiannan City has also become turbulent because of the death of the fat head, and the number of spiritual cultivators in Jiannan City has increased dramatically, and some people have moved their hearts to fish in troubled waters, and have started to kill people and seize treasures.

At noon on the day Lin Jiu left Jiannan City, the envoy of the Yingyue Sect reappeared in the attic in the northwest corner of Jiannan City.

It was the young man who received him, and the spirit of the man in Tsing Yi was obviously much better than that day.

"You mean, the killer is an alien spiritual cultivator?" the man in Tsing Yi paced with square steps, as if he was very interested in the man's words.

"Yes, it's just that this person is very cunning, and he hasn't appeared in Jiannan City since he killed someone. The young man affirmed.

"I know about this, and I asked you to check the meeting addresses of those entry invitations handled by Fat Head, have you found them all out?" asked the man in Tsing Yi with a satisfied nod.

"Returning to the envoy, due to the large number of introductory invitations handled by the fat head, and the fact that these invitations have not left a manuscript, it is really difficult to check the specific points one by one. ”

"Hmph......" The man in Tsing Yi turned cold, obviously not satisfied with the young man's reply.

"Most of the invitations handled by the fat head are concentrated in Qingfeng Mountain and Wuyin Peak. Seeing that the envoy's face was not good-looking, the young man broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly spoke.

"Qingfeng Mountain, Fog Hidden Peak, okay, I know, you will take over the work of the fat head in the future, besides, I don't want this kind of thing to happen a second time. The man in Tsing Yi said with a cold face.

"Thank you to the messenger, my subordinates will do their best to share the worries of the messenger. The young man was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.

The envoy in Tsing Yi didn't bother to look at the young man again, and then brushed his sleeves away.

The young man did not feel that there was anything wrong with this, and now the messenger had asked him to take over the fat-headed errand, and the wealth in the future was not pouring towards him like a tumultuous stream, and the man fluttered at the thought of this.

The messenger went out of the attic and came to a secluded place, and a flash of light flashed in his hand, and a charm appeared in his hand.

The man groaned slightly, the white light on his fingers flashed, and he smashed a spiritual power into the spell, and quickly said to the charm: "This assessment will take the opportunity for me to get rid of the candidates on the two leading platforms of Qingfeng Mountain and Fog Shadow Mountain. ”

After the man finished speaking, he flicked his fingers, and the charm disappeared into the void in a flash.

After doing this, the man patted the dust on his body with satisfaction and said to himself: "Now that the entry invitation has been distributed, I should also go back to the mountain gate to resume my life. ”

Early the next morning, Lin Jiu left the inn and followed the map route on the guide board towards Qingfeng Mountain.

According to the instructions on the map, the guide platform is set up at the southern foot of Qingfeng Mountain, where the terrain is very dangerous, and there is only one steep mountain road to go up the entire mountain, which is impassable by mount, and you can only rely on foot to go up the mountain.

Lin Jiu abandoned the antelope at the foot of the mountain and walked towards the top of the mountain on foot.

And not long after Lin Jiu went up the mountain, several men dressed in black also appeared at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain.

"Boss, it's time to get there. One of the men in a black scarf said.

"Listen to me, our purpose this time is to intercept those spiritual cultivators who go up the mountain to participate in the entrance selection, but our purpose cannot be exposed, we can just claim to block the road here and rob here, if we encounter too strong we, we don't need to fight to the end, these people have their own envoy to solve it personally. ”

Everyone agreed, and they all got into the grass and disappeared.

When Lin Jiu came to the top of the mountain, there was already a young man standing here.

When the man saw Lin Jiu coming up, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he didn't come over to talk, he only nodded at him as a greeting.

Lin Jiu didn't care, he smiled at the man, it was a reply, and then he found a stone on the top of the mountain and sat down, and began to cultivate according to the exercises of the Five Elements Technique.

Today's Lin Jiu has cultivated the Five Elements Technique to the eighth layer, and unlike the previous five layers, starting from the sixth layer, the cultivation of each layer must be based on the previous layer, and the first layer of the eighth layer is the earth spiritual power.

According to the Five Elements Shengke, Tuke, and Water, so the cultivation became extremely slow, and even sometimes the spiritual power that had been cultivated hard would be neutralized by the spiritual power of the previous layer, leaving the part even thinner, so Lin Jiu started from the sixth layer, and his cultivation speed slowed down all of a sudden.

If it hadn't been for the last time he devoured that beast core, his cultivation would still be struggling at the beginning of the eighth layer of the Spirit Sense Stage.

Three days passed quietly in the cultivation, and to Lin Jiu's surprise, the time for the entrance was approaching, and in addition to the previous man and him, there was only one more man on the receiving platform.

I don't know if it's because the number of people at the platform here is small or because the mountain road is difficult, and some spiritual practitioners give up halfway.

Although several people had doubts in their hearts, they did not say the doubts in their hearts, but just waited quietly.

At noon, the white light flashed in the distant sky, and a huge spirit boat suddenly appeared in front of him, and followed the spirit boat to the top of the mountain after a few flashes.

The spirit boat came to the top of the mountain, but it did not fall, and soon a twenty-one-two man floated down from the spirit boat, and the man landed on the mountain peak with a light jump.

Watching the man fall from the spirit boat with a heavy weight, Lin Jiu and the others were envious.

Walking in the sky is a skill that only the spirit period has, and it seems that the senior brother who is responsible for guiding him this time must be a senior in the spirit transformation period.

Leaving the man behind, Lin Jiu and the others hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

The man waved his hand, glanced at Lin Jiu and the others in surprise, and asked, "Just a few of you?"

"Yes!" Lin Jiu and the others secretly doubted in their hearts, but they didn't dare to slack off, and replied respectfully.

The man frowned slightly, but he didn't say much, nodded silently and said, "Take out the entry invitation." ”

Lin Jiu and the three of them didn't dare to slack off, they all took out the entrance invitation from their bodies and handed it to the man, and the man swept the invitation letter of the three of them, and when he saw that there was no mistake, he returned the invitation to the three of them one by one.

"You have taken this invitation and will need it during the entrance examination. The man nodded.

After checking the invitation, the man had no intention of staying, and said, "Let's go." ”

Lin Jiu and the three of them glanced at the high Lingzhou, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

The man seemed to see the embarrassment of the three of them, and his sleeve robe rolled up, and suddenly Lin Jiu felt his body tighten, and he was instantly swept up by a huge spiritual power and flew towards the spirit boat.
