Chapter 297: Accidentally Caught

"Ye Kui, it seems that something is going on outside."

"Just open the window and see."

At this time, Jiang Zhijin and Ye Kui, who had already returned to the attic from the extraterritorial space in the Xuanyu Plain, also heard some sounds, that is, the sound of building collapse and monk discussion in addition to the howling of the wind and snow.

When Ye Kui walked to the window and opened the window, Ye Kui saw that there were six thick smoke slowly dissipating on the snowy exterior.

"Looks like it's on fire somewhere, but it's out now."

Ye Kui, who had roughly seen some of the situation, explained to Jiang Zhijin.

"That shouldn't be a big deal, Ye Kui, I'll go back to the house first."

Jiang Zhijin walked outside the house, and finally closed the door smoothly.

At this time, Ye Kui was the only one in the room, but Ye Kui did not leave the window, but continued to look at the six black smoke that had almost disappeared.

"It stands to reason that this is not a mortal world, so how can you start a fire when you talk about it? There is also salvation is that from the smoke that rises, it can be inferred that there are six sources of the fire, and the fire is still so big, if there are Nine Xuanmen monks nearby, then it should have been extinguished in time, unless..."

When Ye Kui thought of this, he subconsciously glanced at the monks walking outside the high wall under the attic.

"Unless those Nine Xuanmen monks are all dealt with, that murderer is really bold to the point of being outrageous, no matter how much the Nine Xuanmen can bear it, it shouldn't let that murderer continue to kill like this."

Previously, Ye Kui thought that Jiuxuanmen should be planning to brew a big thing, but the price was that there would be monks who would die in the Xuanyu Plain in the future.

As a result, what is happening now has gradually become serious and wrong, only the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference is still going on normally, or it is the limelight of the Tianque Ten Thousand Souls Fighting Law Conference that temporarily suppresses the impact of the death of those monks.

After a while, all the smoke outside the window cleared, and Ye Kui had no choice but to close the window and walk to the straight chair and sit down.

The discussion of the monks outside had also disappeared, and it seemed that the monks felt that the source of the black smoke just now was not something to be concerned about.

Then Ye Kui sat on the straight chair with his eyes closed, and Ye Kui didn't open his eyes until late at night.

"After thinking about it for so long, it is better to leave the attic and walk outside, maybe you can find some clues, if you leave all the things to Jiuxuanmen to solve, then in the end, the death of those monks may not even be explained, and it is even possible to close the case in a hurry."

Ye Kui, who made this decision, immediately left the attic.

The snow outside now was obviously much heavier than it had been a few hours ago, and it was easy to get your foot into the whole sole of your foot if you stepped on the snow, but this was for mortals, not for monks like Ye Kui.

After another while, Ye Kui deliberately avoided the Nine Xuanmen monks who were patrolling everywhere and came to a darker place.

This is exactly one of the six sources of the six black smoke seen today.

"This hall has been burned down a bit, and it seems that it has been opened by the monks of the Nine Xuanmen, so it should be no problem for me to go in and take a look."

Ye Kui cautiously walked into the blackened hall in front of him, where only forty percent of the walls and outlines remained.

The heavy snow did not bury the surrounding scorching smell in the snow, nor did it cover the blackened walls and bamboos with snow, so that only the ground was partially covered by snow.

"This amount of snow should have covered the ground here, but the remains of this burned hall don't have half the thickness of the snow on the outside."

Ye Kui observed the environment of this charred hall, there was not a trace of residual warmth left here, only the charred building remains and the smell of burnt fire that could be smelled at any time.

"What are you doing here?"

At this time, a voice came from not far away from Ye Kui, and then several figures surrounded Ye Kui.

After seeing what those monks were wearing, Ye Kui knew who they were.

"Fellow Daoists of the Nine Xuanmen, I only saw black smoke coming out of here during the day, and then at night

I happened to be a little free, so I thought I'd come here to see how it was going."

Ye Kui casually replied to those Nine Xuanmen monks.

"You stay still, otherwise even if you really come here unintentionally, then we will be unkind to you! We've arranged dark sentinels around the area, and if you really come to this burned down hall in the open, then we'll definitely find out in advance.

We won't find out until you walk into the hall and trigger the circle."

The Jiuxuanmen who questioned who Ye Kui was before said again.

The other Nine Xuanmen monks around him also became more vigilant as a result.

After all, in the eyes of these Nine Xuanmen monks, Ye Kui of this meeting is the murderer who secretly killed hundreds of monks here in the Xuanyu Plain.

"Fellow Daoists of the Nine Xuanmen, you should calm down first, don't just take out the weapon, I didn't even turn around, don't you say?"

Ye Kui also sensed that the surrounding Jiuxuanmen monks had some hostility towards him, so Ye Kui immediately tried to explain to the surrounding Jiuxuanmen monks, after all, Ye Kui also saw that the surrounding Jiuxuanmen monks might have regarded themselves as the murderer, and then they were ready to take down themselves at any time.

"Daoist Master of Qianxi Temple, in order not to cause unnecessary conflicts, I advise you to stand still like this, and when we confirm that you are indeed just a Taoist priest in Qianxi Temple, we will naturally let you go.

Therefore, Dao Chief, we have offended a lot, everyone, take him down first, and if he doesn't resist, move lightly, otherwise you will also know what to do."

The Nine Xuanmen monks who were in charge of commanding the surrounding monks immediately gave orders to the surrounding Nine Xuanmen monks after he finished speaking to Ye Kui.

At this time, Ye Kui, who was still carrying his back, also found that the Jiuxuanmen monks around him were slowly walking towards him.

Ye Kui was also a little hesitant, if he cooperated with the Nine Xuanmen monks, then he would probably be fine, but there was also the worst situation, that is, he would be used as a scapegoat.

If Ye Kui escaped directly, then he would definitely be directly regarded as a murderer by the Nine Xuanmen, and at that time, not only the monks of the Nine Xuanmen, but even the monks of the various immortal sects and sects in the Xuanyu Plain would arrest him.

After that, Ye Kui chose to stay still and let those Nine Xuanmen monks trap their hands with spirit ropes, and then Ye Kui was taken away from this charred hall by a group of Nine Xuanmen monks.

At first, Ye Kui didn't expect such a thing at all, after all, under normal circumstances, no one could find out that he had been using the Heavenly Prison Dao Method.

As a result, it was Ye Kui who accidentally set off the magic circle that the Nine Xuanmen monks set up in the scorched black hall during the day, so Ye Kui's location would be exposed, and then the Nine Xuanmen monks immediately rushed to the scene and caught Ye Kui.

Then Ye Kui found that the leader of the monks who was in charge of directing the surrounding Nine Xuanmen monks ordered to cover his eyes with a cloth, and then those Nine Xuanmen monks took advantage of Ye Kui's doubts about how it could be useful to knock Ye Kui unconscious.

However, Ye Kui noticed the movements of the Nine Xuanmen monks behind him one step earlier, so Ye Kui pretended to be knocked unconscious, let those Nine Xuanmen monks carry him, and then led himself in other directions.

Ye Kui's physique had been tempered by Linjiang Longjun himself, if Ye Kui hadn't deliberately let go of all resistance just now, then the hand bones of the Nine Xuanmen monk who hit Ye Kui with a hand knife just now would have been directly shattered.

About two more incense sticks passed, and Ye Kui was taken to an underground secret room by those Nine Xuanmen monks.

"Who is he? Why did you bring it here?"

"Just now, I and the other senior brothers found out that this pious Taoist friend was sneaky in the wreckage of a certain hall that caught fire today, so I thought he might be the murderer, so I arrested him and confirmed it."

That's when the leader of the Nine Xuanmen monks said to the other Nine Xuanmen monks in the secret room.

At this time, Ye Kui had been locked in a prison cell made of dark iron, and then Ye Kui sat on the edge of the bed in this cell and looked at the ground that was also covered with dark iron.

Now the place where Ye Kui is located is a prison deep under the secret room, and Ye Kui is still

He was kept in a pitch-black cell in the deepest part of the prison on the second basement floor.

And now there is only one monk in the second-floor prison, and that is Ye Kui.

"My luck is really good and bad, I would have known that I would have just taken a look at the ruins of that scorched black hall, so that I would definitely be able to leave before those Nine Xuanmen monks arrived at the scene."

Ye Kui regretted it a little when he thought of the previous situation.

However, just as Ye Kui was about to continue to wait for how the Nine Xuanmen monks outside the cell would confirm his identity or interrogate him, the Nine Xuanmen monks outside the cell seemed to have received some order, so they left here directly.

However, before those Nine Xuanmen monks left, a few Xuanmen monks were arranged to stay here and watch Ye Kui.

"What orders did you just get?"

"That murderer killed the other monks again, and then the monk's corpse appeared on the way to the extraterritorial space, so the senior brothers rushed over just now."

"Isn't that the monk we captured just now completely innocent?"

"Don't worry, what if there is more than one murderer? We'd better wait for the brothers to come back and listen to their arrangements."

"Oh, there is also this possibility, then continue to listen to the arrangement of the senior brother, I really don't know when this matter will end, so many monks died in vain, I can't look at it, and I feel a little guilty."

These Nine Xuanmen monks immediately discussed, they had no idea that danger was approaching them at this time.

"What the hell are those Nine Xuanmen monks saying, it's hard to hear from too far away."

And Ye Kui, who was in the cell, could only barely hear some words coming from a distance outside the cell.

A stick of incense has passed.

"Senior Brother Pan, how did you come here?"

"That Senior Brother Pan, what do you say, even you can't, unauthorized entry is not allowed here for the time being."

Those Nine Xuanmen monks immediately turned around after hearing the movement, and then they saw Pan Rong walking into the secret room, so these Nine Xuanmen monks explained the situation to Pan Rong. :

"I see, are you the only ones here? Are the other brothers in there or are they leaving?"

Pan Rong then asked the monks.

"Senior Brother Pan, some other senior brothers have gone to deal with some things temporarily, if Senior Brother Pan wants to find them, then it may have to wait for a while."

The Nine Xuanmen monks who answered Pan Rong looked at the other Nine Xuanmen monks, and then motioned to the Nine Xuanmen monks to shut up.

"It's fine, but this time you're staying here because there's someone inside?"

Pan Rong asked curiously.

"No, it's just a few of us here, the cell is still as empty as before, if we really caught someone, we would have been interrogating him inside."

This Nine Xuanmen monk deliberately concealed the fact that they had caught Ye Kui, a pious Taoist priest.

The main reason is that the leader of the Nine Xuanmen monks who left here before has specially instructed him not to spread the news of catching a monk with some suspicions, no matter who asks him, he can't say anything.

That's why this Nine Xuanmen monk deliberately deceived Pan Rong.

"That's it, then I'll check it again later, junior brother, don't be so nervous when you lie to others again in the next life, your dodgy eyes have already betrayed you."

Pan Rong kindly reminded the Nine Xuanmen monk who answered him.

"Plate... Senior Brother Pan, you... You're kidding a little... Some."

"It's... Yes, Senior Brother Pan, do you want to sit down first? Shall we make you a pot of tea?"

"Uh-huh, I... I'm going to make tea."

Several Nine Xuanmen monks in the secret room seemed to feel that something was wrong with Pan Rong opposite, especially Pan Rong's eyes were very cold, looking like he was staring at a corpse.

Soon, a few screams came to mind in this secret room,

Then the Nine Xuanmen monks fell to the ground covered in blood, and finally lost their breath with puzzled faces.

And Ye Kui, who was in the prison cell deep in the lower layer of the secret room, also heard the screams of some Nine Xuanmen monks, but the screams were over after a short time.

"Is something going on?"

Ye Kui approached the dark iron door of the cell suspiciously.

"There is a monk who walks to the front of the second floor, is it a monk of the Nine Xuanmen or who?"

Ye Kui, who had already sensed that something was wrong, subconsciously took a few steps back, and then Ye Kui took out the Leaving Immortal Diagram without hesitation, and finally entered the Leaving Immortal Diagram.

When all the cells in the second-floor prison had been opened, Pan Rong returned to the secret room above the second-floor prison.

"Am I too suspicious?"

Pan Rong also thought that some monks might have just been imprisoned in the second-floor prison, after all, the performance of the Nine Xuanmen monks just now was indeed a little wrong, and all Pan Rong was also a little puzzled.

"That's it, I'll get here today, it's time to go back and rest."

After Pan Rong finished speaking, he stepped over the corpses of the Nine Xuanmen monks on the ground and walked towards the outside of the secret room.

Not long after Pan Rong left the secret room, a group of Nine Xuanmen monks carrying the corpses of other immortal sects and sect monks also returned to this spacious secret room, and then they saw the corpses of those Nine Xuanmen monks on the ground.

"Damn, shit, that guy is toying us!"

"Let's go and see if the pious Taoist priest in the second-floor cell is still inside, he is very likely to be the murderer! He killed the brother in the secret room!"

"Is that really the case? I knew that we should have left some more brothers and sisters to guard this place, so there is a good chance that this kind of thing would not happen."

"No, just now when we went to bring back the corpses of the monks of other immortal sects and sects, I knew that the Qianxi Guan Taoist should be said to be innocent, and now I only hope that the Qian Xi Guan Taoist in the second-floor prison is not dead, otherwise we will not only lack a key clue, but also have to deal with the other Taoists of the Qian Xi Temple."

These Nine Xuanmen monks who returned to the secret room immediately put down the corpses of the monks of other immortal sects and sects, and then began to speak their opinions, and finally the leaders of these Nine Xuanmen monks directly persuaded the Nine Xuanmen monks in the secret room and took those Nine Xuanmen monks to the second-floor prison below the secret room.

They were anxious to know if the Taoist priest they had caught on the other side of the scorched black hall was dead or alive, and if they knew what was going on here.

When these Nine Xuanmen monks came to the front of the cell where Ye Kui was and opened the cell, they found Ye Kui lying on the bed sleeping Zhengxiang.

"Go, wake him up."

The leader of the Nine Xuanmen monks said.

"Okay brother."

A certain Nine Xuanmen monk immediately walked to the bed where Ye Kui was sleeping and shook Ye Kui awake.

"What are you going to ask?"

Ye Kui, who was pretending to sleep, sat on the edge of the bed and asked those Nine Xuanmen monks.

"Do you know what's going on here?"

The leaders of these Nine Xuanmen monks asked Ye Kui directly.

"What else could happen, isn't it just that you locked me up here for a while, and then you're here again?"

Ye Kui immediately replied.

"Didn't you hear some movement outside the cell?"

The leader of the Nine Xuanmen monks continued to ask Ye Kui, he didn't believe that Ye Kui, who had just been caught here, would sleep so deadly.

"Don't you see I'm sleeping? I'm really depressed, and I'm just going to be caught here by you just walking around, and then I'm not even allowed to sleep, right?"

Ye Kui replied helplessly.

Now Ye Kui doesn't count for the time being, and tells these Nine Xuanmen monks about what he heard just now.

After Ye Kui hid in the Lixian Diagram just now, he stayed in the Lixian Diagram until Ye Kui used the Moon Blade Devouring Demon Mantis as a pathfinder stone and threw it out of the Lixian Diagram to make sure that there were no other guys in the cell.

Then Ye Kui heard some movement coming from outside the cell again, and this time the movement was much more obvious than before, so Ye Kui was sure that this time it was the group of Nine Xuanmen monks who came back from before, not the guy who came to the outside of the cell alone just now.

So he immediately lay down on the dusty Buddha bed in this cell, and then Ye Kui pretended to be asleep.

"Don't pretend to be confused, you guy must have heard something going on, and then he hid, the cells on the second floor of the prison have been opened, but the door of your cell is closed!"

"How's that going? Doesn't that just mean that I haven't opened the door to this cell and left it?"

Hearing what the other party said, Ye Kui thought of the iron door of the cell that he had closed casually just now, which was indeed a mistake.

"It's useless for you to quibble, now I'll call the other Qianxi Taoist priests here, if you're sure you're not a Taoist priest, then you'll feel good!"

The leader of the Nine Xuanmen Monks said with some anger and then left the cell where Ye Kui was with the other Nine Xuanmen Monks.

"A few of you should immediately go to the attic where those Qianxi monks are, and then call a few Qianxi Guan, so that we can determine whether the monk we have captured is a Qianxi Taoist priest, and then decide whether to torture that monk."

The leader of the Nine Xuanmen Monks, who had returned to the secret room, said to the surrounding Nine Xuanmen monks.

"Senior brother, then the five of us will go to the attic where the Taoist priest lives in Qianxi Temple."

After a certain Nine Xuanmen monk finished speaking, he and the other four Nine Xuanmen monks quickly left the secret room.

"The rest of the people are staying here, I have to tell the Great Elder what happened here immediately, if the Taoist priests of the Pious Cult Temple arrived here before I came back, then you can find a way to make them wait a little longer.

If you really can't delay me back, then you can ask those Qianxi monks to go to the prison cell on the second floor below to confirm whether the monk we have captured here is a Qianxi Taoist."

The leader of the Nine Xuanmen monks in the secret room immediately left this secret room.

"Senior brother, he seems to be a little anxious, he should first wait for those Qianxi Guan Daoists to arrive here to determine whether the monk we have captured and locked up here is a Qian Xi Guan Taoist, and then tell the Great Elder what happened here."

"Then why didn't you just say that? You don't say it until my brother leaves here."

"Don't say that, you must have seen Senior Brother's expression just now, if he really stopped Senior Brother in advance just now, then Senior Brother would definitely not pay attention to it, and it was possible to give him a direct blow."

While these Nine Xuanmen monks were discussing and waiting for the Qianxi Guan Daoist, Ye Kui, who was alone in the prison on the second floor below the secret room, was also thinking about whether he should leave here directly or continue to wait.

"If Zhi Jin also comes here with other Qianxi Daoists, then Zhi Jin will help confirm the identity of my Qianxi Guan Daoist, so those Nine Xuanmen should let me go directly.

Looking at the tone and expression of those Nine Xuanmen monks just now, they must have encountered some unexpected incident, and now the most anxious thing for the Nine Xuanmen monks in the Xuanyu Plain should be that murderer, it seems that the murderer is killing other monks again, so those Nine Xuanmen monks just now are so anxious."

Ye Kui sat on the edge of the bed in the cell and recalled the scene when the Nine Xuanmen monks walked into the cell just now.

At this time, the murderer had also returned to the attic room.

"I could have solved more than thirty more people just now, but if those Nine Xuanmen monks are lucky, the things they will be busy with from tomorrow will be doubled, so they are really busy."

Pan Rong stood by the open window and looked at the dark night sky, looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow.
