Chapter 56: A Knife Strikes the Clouds
In the dark night, the candlelight in the room was faint, reflecting Wang Fugui's red face, which looked quite embarrassing.
"Because...... Among the spies of the Western Tang Dynasty, there were traitors", Wang Fugui said, "In order to avoid implicating more spies, we can only be silent for the time being and cut off all contact with the outside world."
"And you're still coming to me?"
Lin Huang frowned.
"Don't worry, the middle and lower levels of the dark department will never know the identity of the superiors, and the spies here don't know that I am the helmsman of the Western Tang Dynasty."
Wang Fugui continued, peeking at Lin Huang, for fear that Lin Huang would investigate the spy's betrayal.
The spy's rebellion is, after all, a dereliction of duty on his part as the helmsman. He is not afraid of being punished for this, but he is afraid that the helmsmen of other dynasties will laugh at him, endlessly!
"Can this matter be handled?"
Lin Huang asked.
"When the young lord enters the city in the afternoon, his subordinates will take care of it, and after the cooking, you can contact the dark department again", Wang Fugui said with a smile.
Lin Huang nodded, and did not pursue this matter, what he cared about in his heart was naturally what Qin Xuance handed over to him before leaving.
"Then tell me, what's the secret letter sent by Winter Moon Eleven? Why are there only a few words on it?"
Lin Huang opened his mouth and asked, this is exactly the purpose of Qin Xuance letting him come here to the Western Tang Dynasty.
The ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers have been circulated in the wild history of the Eastern Spirit Realm for at least three hundred years.
In the records of all the historical books in the Eastern Spirit Realm, there is a point of view, that is, the secrets of the Yin and Yang Valley are recorded in the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers.
The most mysterious and terrifying place in the Eastern Spirit Realm.
Thousands of years ago, no one could get out of the valley of yin and yang.
In the past thousand years, there have been people who have come out of the Yin and Yang Valley, but there are still very few. However, most of those who were able to get out of it later became the top powerhouses of the Eastern Spirit Realm.
However, even those who walked out were quite jealous of the Yin Yang Valley and refused to reveal their words at all. Let's just say that all the secrets are hidden in the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers.
Over time, there were various rumors of mountains and rivers in the Eastern Spirit Realm:
There is a demon king in the Valley of Yin and Yang, who can devour all living beings.
There is a inheritance in the Yin and Yang Valley, and the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers are the key to unlocking the inheritance.
Through the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers, you can find the location of the Yin and Yang Valley.
Those who have obtained the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers will definitely become the leader of the Dongling Martial Arts.
......
There are all kinds of rumors, but one thing everyone can be sure of is that this mountain and river ancient scroll came from the Xuanyuan family in the Eastern Spirit Realm at the earliest.
Xuanyuan raised the army!
Later, for some reason, this mountain and river scroll has been wandering in the Eastern Spirit Realm, and has never returned to the hands of the Xuanyuan family.
Previously, Qin Xuance received a secret letter from the Western Tang Dynasty, although there were only four words "Mountains and Rivers Ancient Scrolls", it still attracted his attention.
Later, the Shenjiang Mansion lost contact with the rudder of the Western Tang Dynasty, and Qin Xuance thought of Lin Huang.
Although he is about to go to the Drifting Snow Palace, as the young mansion master of the Divine General's Mansion, can't he take a good look at the last residual heat?
In the dark room, Wang Fugui seemed to know that Lin Huang would ask about it, and said with a smile: "Speaking of mountains and rivers ancient scrolls, this matter has to start with another matter!"
Lin Huang waved his hand and motioned for Wang Fugui to sit down and speak carefully.
"Three months ago, there was news in the Eastern Spirit Realm that there was a treasure chest in the home of Jia Wanjin, the richest man in the Western Tang Dynasty, which contained one-third of his wealth in this life, which was enough to buy the Western Tang Dynasty!"
"Javankin, as far as I know, he's just a businessman, what does it have to do with that?"
Lin Huang wondered.
"It's not just about wealth," Wang Fugui shook his head and said:
"It is said that in his treasure chest, there is a rare treasure, not to mention that it is priceless, just that one treasure is enough to withstand the ten-year financial income of a dynasty!"
"That rare treasure is the ancient scroll of mountains and rivers?"
Lin Huang asked.
Wang Fugui nodded, "The treasure is the ancient scroll of mountains and rivers, and this is also something that I learned later." However, since the news of the treasure chest came out, several major events have happened in the Western Tang Dynasty one after another!"
Speaking of this, Wang Fugui frowned deeply, and there seemed to be a trace of jealousy in his eyes.
"Three months ago, a small town in the Western Tang Dynasty was slaughtered overnight, and a full 20,000 people, as if they had been sucked dry of flesh and blood, turned into mummies!"
Speaking of this, Lin Huang's face changed.
20,000 people!
Overnight!
"Two months ago, half of Javankin's industry suffered a devastating blow, and the people in those businesses all died strangely, and they all became mummies, just like before."
"A group of people?"
Lin Huang asked.
Wang Fugui nodded, "The death is exactly the same, except that the body has become a mummy, there are no wounds on the body, and there is no warning beforehand."
"And then?"
Lin Huang then asked.
"A month ago, suddenly a person came to Jia Wanjin's mansion and said that he wanted to buy the treasure chest in Jia Wanjin's hand," Wang Fugui said silently.
"Buy a treasure chest?"
Hearing this, Lin Huang couldn't help but gasp, although Jia Wanjin was only the richest man in the Western Tang Dynasty, his financial resources were strong enough to rank among the top five in the Eastern Spirit Realm.
And if you want to buy a treasure chest, what courage does it take!
"I didn't succeed in thinking about this person," Lin Huang said, and he couldn't think of anyone who would spend money to buy something for the richest man.
Wang Fugui shook his head.
"Jia Wanjin gave the treasure chest to that person, and he didn't take a penny," Wang Fugui continued:
"That night, Javankin's family was slaughtered, leaving him and his daughter to escape."
"Also mummified?" Lin Huang asked.
Wang Fugui nodded, his expression became extremely solemn, you must know that Jia Wanjin was extremely wealthy at that time, and there were at least ten Tianyuan Realm guards in his family.
However, under such strength, everyone still fell silently in the night, and was drained of flesh and turned into mummies.
"Did the guy who bought the treasure chest do it?"
Lin Huang asked.
"I don't know, but it's very likely!"
Wang Fugui looked helpless, "We have been investigating this matter for three months, and we can only lock the suspicion on the person who bought the treasure chest, and he has such strength!"
"Who is he?"
Lin Huang's mind is slightly tight, and the person who can silently kill dozens of Tianyuan, slaughter 20,000 people overnight, and uproot half of Jia Wanjin's industry, not only has extremely strong strength, but also has extremely strong power.
In the Eastern Spirit Realm, those who can do this can be counted on one hand.
"Xuanyuan raises troops!"
Wang Fugui paused word by word, and said extremely cautiously.
Lin Huang's expression was stunned, and his heart was extremely shaken!
Xuanyuan raises troops?!
The characters who are the first on the Wuhou List and the Famous Generals List are undoubtedly human myths in the world of this Eastern Spirit Realm.
Before the age of twenty, he only did two things, one of which was to lead millions of soldiers to conquer the world, in the name of the contemporary god of war, swept the twenty-eight dynasties, and forcibly turned the Northern Yan Dynasty into the Northern Yan Dynasty, ranking among the top ten dynasties!
The second is that at the age of nineteen, he broke through to the Tianyuan realm.
Nineteen-year-old Tian Yuan Realm, no one before him could have such a talent. And since him, only Lin Cangxue could do it, but when Lin Cangxue was in the half-step Tianyuan realm, the martial soul was shattered.
After the Tianyuan realm, Xuanyuan raised troops and only did one thing, that is, to raise millions of troops to destroy Dongxuan!
After Xuanyuan Jian, the only son of Xuanyuan Tibing, was mistakenly killed by Dongxuanzong, this young man who was still only in the Tianyuan realm led a million iron horsemen to step on Dongxuanshan Mountain, and with 1,982 battle formations, he forcibly trapped and killed 3,400 people in Dongxuanzong, and even the strong Wuhou among them were trampled to death by the iron horses.
You must know that Dongxuanzong was the head of the five major sects at that time, and there were eighteen martial marquis and seventy-three Tianyuan in the sect, and there were countless Diyuan martial artists.
And Xuanyuan raised troops to a Tianyuan realm, but he killed a sect with a million troops.
On that day, Xuanyuan raised troops to the east of Xuanshan Mountain, and his famous reputation spread all over the world!
Since raising millions of troops to destroy Dongxuan, Xuanyuan has been staying in the Northern Yan Imperial City until the day he broke through the realm of Wuhou, he sent a war letter to Chen Chuanfeng, who was the first on the Wuhou list at that time.
As a result, this young man, who had just stepped into the realm of Wuhou, crossed the realm of the Seven Heavens, and killed the latter in just thirty-eight moves.
As soon as you enter Wuhou, you are invincible!
The name of Xuanyuan has been completely spread to the world since then, and it has shocked the land of Dongling. He alone is the biggest force in the Eastern Spirit Realm, and it is an insurmountable mountain.
However, since the defeat of Chen Chuanfeng, Xuanyuan has not been concerned about the affairs of the world, and has stayed in Xuanyuan City all the year round, at most he has gone out of the city to hunt.
......
In the dark room, Lin Huang thought of this man who was called a myth in the world, and his heart was extremely complicated. This person is also both righteous and evil, and he never cares about the common people's avenue, which can be seen from the fact that he raised millions of troops and killed Dongxuanzong back then.
And if the disasters of the past three months were really the work of Xuanyuan's troops, then what did he want to do? Although the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers were originally the stuff of the Xuanyuan family, why did he slaughter so many people?
With his strength and power, why is it so difficult to get Jawanjin to hand over the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers? Why do you want to do such cruel and evil methods?
Lin Huang couldn't figure this out anyway.
Or, was this done by someone else? But who has such ability except for Xuanyuan to raise troops?
What secrets are hidden in the ancient scrolls?
What kind of evil martial arts can suck the flesh and blood of a warrior dry and turn it into a mummy?
Is there a shocking conspiracy hidden behind the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers?
......
"Maybe the source of all this comes from the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers", Lin Huang could only have such a guess after thinking about it for a long time. I couldn't help but feel a little worried in my heart, I was afraid that one day, this kind of disaster would burn to the Great Xia Dynasty.
"I will inform grandpa about this matter, and let the people in the dark department do their best to track it down", Lin Huang said to Wang Fugui.
Wang Fugui nodded, this matter involves Xuanyuan's troops and the ancient scrolls of mountains and rivers, so it is not something he can touch, even if the people of the four major sects and ten dynasties intervene in the investigation, this matter is not an exaggeration.
"By the way, what about Javankin's father and daughter, what's going on now?"
Lin Huang asked.
"They are still in the Imperial City of the Western Tang Dynasty," Wang Fugui said, "but suddenly suffering from this catastrophe, Jia Wanjin has no intention of fame and fortune in the shopping mall, and has already scattered most of his family property, packed up his things to recruit guards, and is ready to go to the Blood Triangle to join his son-in-law."
"Blood triangle?"
Lin Huang's eyebrows raised slightly, the Blood Triangle was at the junction of the three major dynasties, and it was notoriously chaotic in the Eastern Spirit Realm, and he was about to pass by the Blood Triangle when he went to the Drifting Snow Palace.
Thinking of this, Lin Huang instructed Wang Fugui and said:
"You arrange for me to enter Javankin's escort!"
