Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Dead Qingquan Sect Member

"Master, in addition to reporting the good news when I come back this time, the disciple also wants to take a month off and go home to see my father."

Wang Mu said seriously.

Ling Daozi nodded: "Okay, let's go, pay attention to safety on the road, don't tell others about this matter for the time being." ”

Wang Mu nodded in understanding.

Ling Daozi praised Wang Mu a few words, threw Wang Mu a black rope, and flew into the air towards the back mountain, not knowing what to do.

Wang Mu took the rope and looked confused: "What is this?" ”

Lan Wangji said with a smile: "The master really feels sorry for you, this is a medium-grade magic weapon he used back then, a forbidden empty rope." ”

"Forbidden Rope?" As soon as Wang Mu heard that it was a medium-grade magic weapon, he immediately couldn't put it down and took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

The rope is pitch black, surrounded by strands of snake-like lines, and at the ends of the rope are two hook-like iron ornaments.

Lan Wangji explained, "Well, this thing can actively pursue the enemy and trap it. ”

"These two iron hooks can hold the opponent's flesh and blood as the spiritual power changes, causing damage while making the entanglement stronger."

"It's a good thing to trap the enemy and catch the enemy."

"Even the Jindan monks are difficult to break free from under the entanglement of this thing, but it is not so useful for monks with spiritual realms."

After putting away the forbidden rope, Wang Mucai pulled Lan Wangji and said, "By the way, senior brother and I will go back to see the third senior brother?" ”

The third senior brother is Xuan Donglai.

Whenever he thought of this, Wang Mu wanted to laugh very much.

After going back, Xuan Donglai found out that Wang Mu had become his junior brother, how should he feel?

Lan Wangji shook his head: "If it's okay at hand, of course I want to." ”

"But now that the master has just come out of the customs, his injuries have not completely healed, and I still have to deal with many things in the Law Enforcement Palace."

"Okay, there's something I want to ask Senior Brother, what should I do with the damaged magic weapon, and can it still be repaired?"

As he spoke, he took out the Aoyama Armor.

In the Heavenly Tribulation, this Qingshan Armor was badly damaged and completely unable to function.

And there was a big crack in it.

It gave Wang Mu a lot of headaches.

It's a pity that he's just such a defensive magic weapon, but now it's broken.

"Broken?"

For Qingshan Jia, Lan Wangji knows.

After all, he was at the scene when the city lord Zhao Wujiang gave it to Wang Mu at that time.

However, seeing that the tip of Qingshan's armor was so badly damaged, Lan Wangji knew what kind of risk Wang Mu had experienced.

"It's not something that can be done by manpower, is it?"

"If you meet a monk who can damage Qingshanjia into such a monk, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back alive."

Lan Wangji was well-informed in the end, and he could see at once that the damage was not man-made.

Wang Mu praised: "Senior brother is really erudite, this is left by the Heavenly Tribulation." ”

Lan Wangji couldn't help but smack his tongue: "Legend has it that the Heavenly Tribulation has been tested since the Heavenly Tribulation. ”

"I can't imagine that in my lifetime, I will really be able to meet the foundation building monk who has suffered a catastrophe."

"You can be regarded as having experienced the crisis of the Jindan realm breaking through to Gu Ling in advance, and you can be regarded as gaining experience."

"Will Jin Dan break through to Gu Ling and encounter a catastrophe?" Wang Mu was suddenly surprised, he didn't know this.

This is already a secret of those high-ranking monks.

"Well, yes, I just don't know, no, I guess this tribulation must be stronger than the one you encountered."

"After all, their cultivation strength is there."

Lan Wangji thought about it for a while, patted Wang Mu's shoulder and said, "You might as well stay with this Qingshan Armor." ”

"The Miscellaneous Spring Peak of the sect can repair this magic weapon, Senior Brother Gao is a master of refining, and I will give you the spirit stone, which can be regarded as a congratulatory gift to you."

Wang Mu smiled: "Then thank you brother." ”

After saying goodbye to Lan Wangji.

Wang Mu still went back to his small courtyard first.

After entering the secret room, he took out a golden armor talisman, refined it with a stone bowl, and put it away.

Only then did he leave the sect and go to Qingquan Town to join Hongliu.

......

Tianyin Mansion, Cold Stone City.

Stargate.

Bursts of angry roars continued to sound in the depths of the sect.

The news of the death of the sect master's eldest disciple, Dark Frost, shook the entire sect greatly.

However, soon, several Jindan powerhouses in the Shattered Star Gate quietly left and went straight to the direction of Qingquan Sect.

......

The two hurried all the way.

In the case that Wang Mu did not use the flying magic weapon.

It took about four days to finally come to the vicinity of Aoyama Castle.

"This is my hometown, Aoyama City."

After entering the city, Hongliu looked around curiously, looking curious about everything.

"Haven't you entered the main city in the hinterland of the Zhao Kingdom?"

Seeing him like this, Wang Mu couldn't help but ask curiously.

After getting along in the past few days, the two can be regarded as initially familiar.

Hongliu shook his head: "I rarely go, most of the time I stay in the mountains near Shattered Star City. ”

"After all, they are being pursued by the Patrol Division, they still have a lot of tracking methods, even if they change their appearance, they are also likely to be encountered."

Wang Mu didn't say much, the two went straight through Qingshan City, and then went straight to Baishui Town.

However, Wang Mu did not enter the town, but stopped Hongliu outside the town.

"Hongliu Daoyou, stop, that's it."

Wang Mu suddenly said when he was still ten miles away from the town.

"What do you mean?" Hongliu looked at Wang Mu with some vigilance.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm asking you to wait for me here, I'll take the third uncle out to see me, as for Baishui Town, it's better if you don't go."

Wang Mu chuckled, but the tone of his words was unquestionable.

Hongliu didn't mind.

She didn't come for the Wang family, but to learn about her Chen family.

Since Wang Mu is not at ease.

Wait here and wait.

Subsequently, Wang Mu returned to Whitewater Town alone.

The Wang family was naturally very excited and happy when they saw Wang Mu, especially their mother Mo and father Wang Shan.

However, Wang Mu did not stay at home too much.

After explaining the reason to his parents, he and his third uncle Wang Li came to the agreed meeting place outside the town.

After meeting, Hongliu and Wang Li talked for a long time.

During this period, Hongliu seemed to be very excited, talking and crying.

Wang Mu didn't listen from the sidelines, but practiced cross-legged a hundred meters away from the two of them.

It wasn't until night fell that Wang Li woke up Wang Mu.

"What about the Red Willow Man?" Only then did Wang Mu realize that the red willow was gone.

Wang Li looked at him with a strange smile on his face and said, "Let's go, what's the matter, reluctant?" ”

Wang Mu was suddenly embarrassed: "Third uncle, don't talk nonsense." ”

Wang Li suddenly laughed.

The two of them flew away side by side towards Whitewater.

"I didn't expect that by half a year, you would have broken through to the foundation building realm, which is really amazing."

"The entire Baishui Town knows that you have entered the sect of the elders of the Qingquan Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, and the Wang family is now hot in the entire Qingshan City."

Wang Li talked to Wang Mu on the road about the current situation of the Wang family.

In just half a year, because of the abundant resources, many geniuses have appeared in the family, and at the same time, the cultivation of the juniors in many clans has also been greatly improved.

"How is that guy Wang Shi? This time, I came to Qingshan City because I brought the red willow and it was not convenient to go to him. ”

Wang Mu asked curiously.

"Wang Shi, he has completed his qi refining, and it is said that he will go to Tianyin Mansion for further study in the next year, and Zhao Wujiang seems to be intent on taking him as an apprentice."

Wang Li said with a smile.

Wang Mu also nodded.

Zhao Wujiang is a Jindan monk, the lord of Qingshan City.

If you can worship him as a teacher, it will naturally be of great benefit to Wang Shi.

This is especially true for the Wang family.

But this kid is also powerful enough.

Unexpectedly, he cultivated to the perfection of qi refining.

"What about Wan'er? Any letter? ”

Wang Mu asked one after another, but Wang Li was not impatient and explained them one by one.

After returning to Wang's house, Wang Mu accompanied his parents for half a month.

I also went to visit Xuan Donglai.

For his extra junior brother, Xuan Donglai couldn't cry or laugh.

The student became a junior brother, and he couldn't accept it at first.

But if you think about it, you should be a substitute teacher.

In the end, I silently accepted it.

During this period, Wang Shi also came back once, and the brothers were very happy to meet.

The two drank until midnight, but Wang Shi had military affairs and soon left again.

It can be seen that he has changed a lot in the past six months.

The whole person is taller, more athletic, and at the same time a little calmer.

It's just that when the two were drinking and chatting, Wang Shi returned to the innocent boy he used to be.

After Wang Shi left, Wang Mu also planned to return to the sect.

But the day before he left, Aoyama City sent someone to find him.

The person who came was an outer disciple of the Qingquan Sect stationed in Qingshan City.

"Senior brother, there is a case in Qingshan City that needs your help, because it involves a disciple of the sect, I asked the elders of the sect, and the sect replied that I would come to you."

Looking at the monk in front of him, he was called Senior Brother Wang Mu.

On the side, there was a guard commander of Qingshan City and Wang Shi, while Wang Mu sat on a chair and listened lightly.

Xuan Donglai even looked at Erlang's legs and sat aside.

The high-level officials of the Wang family in the Wang family's meeting hall secretly smacked their tongues.

Wang Mu, now it's different!

Even the big people in Qingshan City had to be polite when they saw him.

"Okay, since it's Qingshan City's business, it's my business, it's easy to talk about it, you come with me."

took the outer disciple named Yu Lian back to his small courtyard, and Wang Mu asked the other party to explain the matter to him in detail.

Only then did Wang Mu know that a disciple of the Qingquan Sect had been attacked and killed in Heishui Town, which was subordinate to Qingshan City.

Although the other party's cultivation is not high, the cause of death is a little strange, and it doesn't seem to be man-made.

The Qingshan City Patrol Division thought that it was the work of the demon beast, but after Yu Lian investigated, he felt that it might be the remnants of the Fog Sect.

It's just that Qingshan City didn't want to admit their mistake in encircling and suppressing the Mist Sect, so they pushed it on the demon beast.

The others spoke softly, hoping that Wang Mu could investigate the matter on behalf of the Qingquan Sect and let this outer disciple understand his death.

After listening to his story, Wang Mu did not express his opinion directly, but said that he would start an investigation, and sent him back.

When Yu Lian left, Wang Mu informed Xuan Donglai of the matter.

Xuan Donglai seemed to have heard about this matter for a long time, but after thinking about it, he felt that Qingshan City would not be so irresponsible.

"Although Zhao Wujiang is a bit utilitarian, this person is extremely courageous."

"It was precisely because of this that he won the position of Qingshan City Lord."

Xuan Donglai chuckled and said, "If it's because a disciple of the outer sect of the Qingquan Sect was killed by the Fog Sect, you don't dare to admit it?" is too underestimated Zhao Wujiang. ”

Wang Mu nodded: "To be honest, I actually think it's unlikely." ”

"And over the years, there have often been many people in Qingshan City who have died at the hands of the Mist Sect, and compared to the people of the Qingquan Sect, their hatred for the Mist Sect is even stronger."

"So if it's really the Fog Sect's doing, Qingshan City will never ignore it."

Xuan Donglai nodded, nodded and said, "That's right, Yu Lian naturally knew the reason for coming to Qingshan City this time, so he also sent Commander Gao and Wang Shi to come together." ”

"Just so that you don't take sides."

Wang Mu was suddenly a little speechless.

"Get used to it early, you'll encounter a lot of this kind of thing in the future."

"Uncle Xuan, then how should I deal with it?" Wang Mu humbly asked.

Wang Mu didn't call Xuandong to come to Senior Brother.

Because he knew that the other party seemed to be a little estranged from the Qingquan Sect.

Xuan Donglai was also very satisfied with this, nodded and said, "You go to investigate first, and after the results are obtained, we will discuss how to deal with it." ”

"Okay." Wang Mu nodded in agreement.

After a brief cleanup, Wang Mu rushed to Heishui Town with some men from the Qingshan City Patrol Division and Yu Lian.

And the captain of the patrol team from the patrol division of Qingshan City is Wang Mu's acquaintance, Wu Zhen.

A group of old acquaintances are together, and naturally they can't stop talking.

Throughout the way, Wang Mu kept chatting with everyone.

And Yu Lian was a little silent and followed, seemingly very shy.

In this regard, Wang Mu noticed it and talked to the other party kindly.

I found out after chatting for a while.

It turned out that Yu Lian was the wave of disciples who had less potential among the outer disciples.

Therefore, he was released early to help the Qingquan Sect contact and take care of some surrounding industries.

There are disciples like this in all cities, and there are many of them.

Of course, the garrison managers stationed in various cities are indeed a fat poor.

But because of the sect that is far away, he can't get in touch with some of the more core things of the sect.

For example, the Tibetan Soldier Pavilion and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, as well as the Dan Pavilion.

However, according to what he said, if the resident manager contributes enough, he can also return to the sect once a year in exchange for the corresponding resources.

Yu Lian has only been stationed in Qingshan City for half a year now.

It was after Wang Mu left, so the two met for the first time.

Soon, the group rushed to Blackwater Town.

Received by the Blackwater Town Patrol Division, some of them stayed in the town's inn.

It wasn't until the next morning that the group rushed to the scene of the crime.

That is, where the body was found.

This is a mountain col, not far from Shanghai, is a mine that collects fine iron and some metal minerals, which belonged to the Zhao official.

"The deceased disciple's name is Huang Zeng, and he is in charge of transporting some spiritual materials mined from the mine."

"These spiritual materials are all used to refine weapons, so they can only be personally taken care of by the disciples of the Qingquan Sect."

Standing in a place in the col full of blood and battle marks, Yu Lian said loudly to Wang Mu, who was standing in the middle of the scene and carefully examining it.

Wang Mu clapped his hands and stood up and asked, "Have all the spiritual materials been sent back to the sect?" ”

"No," Yu Lian shook his head, "Half of them will be handed over to the Qingshan City City Lord's Mansion, and half will be handed over to the official and sect sects. ”

"What about the corpses?" Wang Mu asked again.

Yu Lian sighed and said, "When the sect came to say that his soul lamp was extinguished, when I led people to look for it, Senior Brother Huang's corpse had been gnawed by wild beasts. ”

However, Wang Mu did not give up, but asked: "Even if it is bitten, what about the remaining corpses?" ”

Yu Lian wanted to say something, but he heard Wu Zhen say: "There are still three corpses left, one arm and two legs. ”

"They were all collected and placed in the patrol department of Qingshan City, but the director asked me to bring them before I came."

As he spoke, he took out a bag of mustard seeds.

Yu Lian was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wu Zhen in surprise.

Wu Zhen didn't look at him, just looked at Wang Mu: "Is it here to test?" ”

However, Wang Mu shook his head: "Don't worry, wait until I finish checking the scene." ”

Then Wang Mu directly released his divine sense and carefully observed the entire scene.

However, none of the people present had a foundation, so no one could feel his divine sense sweep over.

Under the shroud of Wang Mu's divine sense, in addition to the traces of the scene, everyone present was also very clear in his divine sense.

Including the specific cultivation of each person, he could see it clearly.

However, when his divine sense swept over Lian, the fog dragon that had been cultivating in Wang Mu's dantian suddenly let out a low roar.

And no one could hear the voice.

Except for Wang Mu.
