Chapter 109: Turmoil in the Building
The dark arrow dart was so real, and it was nailed to the pillars motionless, and it didn't quite match the speed and illusion of its flight.
Wu Chen turned his head, and saw in the direction of the dart, but he didn't see any vision, let alone see the figure flickering. He even walked out of Gu Peiju quickly, and there was no change in his surroundings.
Such a master, how can he detect it?
Walking back to the room, he directly took down the dart to send the message, and the font that deliberately concealed the handwriting was very neat, and the lines of handwriting came into his eyes, and Wu Chen's heart was full of shock.
This is...... Why?
It is written on the creed.
"You have been plotted by someone, I want to know the ins and outs, there are people in the storm building, I can answer with you. Wu Chen was stunned.
At this moment, it was only two hours since he was framed and mistakenly broke into the Wuyan Temple, and those who knew about it were only a few elders present except for the close-mouthed special protection disciples.
Could someone in the Storm Tower explain the ins and outs of this matter to me? This is even more impossible, Wu Chen sighed in his heart.
Cha Mu once said that if it were not for the envoy and the lord of the mansion in the cold garden, even a few elders would not be allowed to trespass. Moreover, he had been in the Storm Tower for two months, and no one had ever been here......
Wu Chen clutched the creed, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt.
He wanted to go to the cold garden to check, but instead he was worried that the mistake of breaking into the temple was caused by impulse, and he fell for the tricks of the plotter. At this moment, you still have to be impulsive and venture into the Cold Garden Storm Building under the moonlight?
In case this is a series of plots, how should I deal with it? Is it possible to expect Han Qing to come to protect himself again?
Wu Chen walked to the candle and wanted to burn the creed to ashes, but after thinking about it, he gave up. He blew out the candles, did not take off his robe and shoes, and simply lay on his back on the bed, staring at the moonlight that night, and fiddling with the broken arrow and dart in his hand from time to time.
For the purpose of concealment in the night, the messenger specially chose black darts, and he was a delicate person.
He grasped his desire to explore the truth and deliberately led himself to the Storm Tower. Wu Chen didn't know if there was anything wrong in the storm building at the moment, but the feeling in his heart was not fear, but contradiction, and incomprehension.
Since entering Ying Tianfu, Han Qing, an old woman, has been strange everywhere. Sometimes he blames himself, and he is even more trapped here, but sometimes he comes forward to protect him, knowing everything, and several elders in Ying Tianfu are also acting grotesquely.
After the matter of the unspoken ancestral hall, Wu Chen felt that many events in the heavenly mansion were aimed at him.
Who am I?
Who is it related to?
What is in their interest in me?
His eyebrows were furrowed, and Wu Chen was puzzled.
I have to admit that this messenger has indeed aroused his curiosity, and all his thoughts are in the turmoil building at this moment, and it is simply itching.
The hour passed quickly, and finally the sky was bright.
What does it mean to live like a year? These few hours are more torturous than the time on the dusty road. Without waiting for Sun Tianye to deliver food, Wu Chen went straight out of the back door of Gu Peiju and went straight to the Cold Garden.
Entering the cold garden, he went straight to the Fengbo Building, and pushed open the door with both hands. "Squeak", the face is still familiar with the old ink fragrance, and it looks no different here.
Wu Chen continued to walk inside, intending to turn the Fengbo Building in its entirety to see if what was said in the letter was true or false. As soon as he walked up the stairs on the second floor, he sensed the sound of human breathing, which was faint and seemed to be a suppressed moan.
A moment of feeling empty in the hand is still a habit formed on the border battlefield, and when the heart is aware of the danger, it will unconsciously clench the weapon in the hand.
However, Ying Tianfu had never equipped him with weapons, and he only had a wooden sword with him when he cultivated in Hanyuan, and he tried to ask for it, but was rejected by Cha Mu on the grounds that the mansion master's order was used.
If you hold it again, even if you are bare-handed, you have to see who is sacred hidden in the storm building.
What Wu Chen can be sure of is that in the first two months, there was absolutely no one on the second floor of the Fengbo Building.
In this way, last night's letter was not a lie.
This person must have been hiding here last night.
Although Wu Chen's footsteps were light, the person who was moaning faintly also quickly heard someone coming, and he was silenced and his breathing was suppressed.
Wu Chen followed the direction he had just judged, and cautiously walked all the way to the corner behind the pile of books on the second floor.
After the pile of books was scattered, he saw a foot in black cloth boots, and saw the man's legs, which were half-draped over his robe, and even though they were black, he could see a large patch of blood.
Getting closer, the smell of blood is even stronger.
Until, Wu Chen saw a person paralyzed in the corner of the wall, with a miserable white and blood-lost face, blood at the corners of his mouth, blood on his chest, and blood all over his body. The man looked at Wu Chen in horror.
Wu Chen's eyes were no better when he looked at him.
After a while, Wu Chen adjusted his voice and asked, "Who are you!"
After asking, Wu Chen thought in his mind, this person's face was as pale as paper, but he felt that he had a one-sided relationship, and he couldn't remember when it happened.
"Who are you?"
Seeing that the man in the pool of blood in the corner of the storm building did not answer, Wu Chen asked again in a fixed voice.
The man moved the corners of his dry mouth, took a big breath and said, "I'm Elder Qin Sheng...... Sit down... Personally passed on the disciple Lin Xiang. His voice trembled a little.
Wu Chen's eyes lit up, and he remembered it when he said this. When Sun Tianye participated in the competition of new disciples, Qin Sheng led people to fly down the high platform to fight with him.
"Why are you here?" Wu Chen asked again.
Disciple Lin Xiang was sluggish for a moment, and his expression was not only caused by pain, but also because he didn't know where to start. He continued with a wisp of thought: "Uncle Wu Chen, I didn't say anything outside the ancestral hall last night, it was I who did it. ”
"What do you mean by this?" Wu Chen had already deduced in his heart, but this person appeared in the storm building with suspicions, and then asked, "You make it clear." ”
And the words spoken by the disciple Lin Xiang shocked Wu Chen.
"Last night, I used the magic weapon in advance to move the barrier outside the Wuyan Ancestral Hall, and I have been guarding the top of Heli Peak waiting for you to come, and I will not leave until you come......
"Why did you do that?"
"I ......" Lin Xiang's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness, and then turned into deep resentment, his voice was heavier, as if gritting his teeth, and said, "I am under the orders of my teacher." ”
"Qin Sheng wants to kill me?" Wu Chen's eyes sharpened.
Lin Xiang was noncommittal.
"Why does he want to kill me, just because I took the opportunity for him to enter the Cold Garden to cultivate?" Wu Chen sneered, which was a bit far-fetched.
Lin Xiang shook his head.
"This is just the surface, everyone in the house knows that he sees that you are not going well, so he naturally wants to target Uncle Shi, but in fact, ...... He had other purposes. Lin Xiang said this, and it seemed that he was a little relaxed when he said the words that had been hidden for a long time.
Wu Chen knew that he would continue, and did not ask, but adjusted his emotions to meet the truth below.
"Qin Shenghe...... If you want to go to the shrine to meet people, or to find things, he has another identity, he is a spy placed in the house, he does things that are not visible all day long, he ......"
The faster Lin Xiang spoke, the more excited he became, and suddenly choked on blood in his chest.
Wu Chen was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"
Only then did he go to Gu Linxiang's injuries, it was better for this person to have something else, first, he was a witness to yesterday's incident, and it would definitely be useful in the future. Second, if he dies in Fengbo Tower, only Wu Chen can go in and out of this place all day, how can he explain it?
"I'm fine. Lin Xiang had a lot of blood on his chin, and he didn't bother to raise his hand to wipe it.
"Someone rescued me last night and gave me a pill, and my injuries began to heal. He said......" Lin Xiang looked at Wu Chen and suddenly paused.
"What?"
"He said... If I see you, whatever you ask, I must tell you the truth. If there is a lie to hide, he will ......"
"Want your life?" Wu Chen answered.
Lin Xiang nodded.
"Who is he?"
"I don't know, I'm masked, and my voice is fake. ”
"You said he saved you, is someone going to kill you?" Wu Chen asked again.
Lin Xiang's eyes were full of indignation, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Qin Sheng, kill me." ”
"After last night, Qin Sheng took back the multiplication weapon that he handed over to me, and he wanted to kill people. ”
Wu Chen was clear.
No wonder he called the name of the master one by one, it turned out that after Qin Sheng's plot, he had the intention of killing his own disciple, wanting to never suffer in the future, and he didn't want Lin Xiang to be saved by others.
"What is the shape of the person who rescued you?" Wu Chen had some speculation in his heart, so he asked deliberately.
"The body is not tall, but it is considered strong, and the cloak is wide and difficult to see. Lin Xiang recalled.
"Is it a man?"
"It's a man. ”
Looking at Lin Xiang and nodded firmly, Wu Chen was a little stunned, shouldn't it be an old woman?
The atmosphere stagnated, Wu Chen sorted out his thoughts and went back to ask: "You just said that Qin Sheng has another identity, where is he an agent?"
Lin Xiang paused and replied, "North." ”
Northern?
"The dungeon or...... The Palace?"
