Chapter 135
Good deeds!
That time it was very likely that Shanwei and Chen Xiao played a double reed by their master and apprentice!
Why didn't they make a move on Yue Xiaoyue?
It should be yourself!
Zhou Zheng suddenly thought of a question. With his current cultivation at such a high level, he should be able to see through at a glance what the other party's cultivation is, but when he saw good deeds that day, he didn't understand how high the cultivation of good deeds was?
That day, it was because I paid attention to other things and didn't pay much attention to this matter, but now that I think about it, I am very scary!
I can't see that there are only two situations for the other party's cultivation. One is that the cultivation of good deeds is higher than Zhou Zheng, and he naturally can't see through it! This situation is terrifying! The other is that Shanwei has a high-level magic weapon on his body that shields his own cultivation, so that Zhou Zheng can't see it. If this is the case, the act of kindness is even more suspicious!
Zhou Zheng was almost sure of his guess, Shanwei should have discovered himself hidden by his side early that day! Therefore, all his performances are acting for himself!
Zhou Zheng is now eagerly looking forward to Cheng E's news of good deeds as soon as possible!
Let's not mention good deeds. After a few days of secret observation, Chen Xiao, who was on death row, was acting normally except for a calm face and no panic.
However, for a condemned prisoner who is about to be executed, such a performance is extremely abnormal.
Yue Xiaoyue used the illusion medicine behind Zhou Zheng's back to induce Chen Xiao again, but no matter how he asked, the burial place of the ninth corpse that Chen Xiao answered was still the place he had originally said. Moreover, judging from his expression, Chen Xiao didn't look like he was lying.
Yue Xiaoyue had nothing to do, so she could only pouting and truthfully admitting her mistake to Zhou Zheng. Zhou Zheng didn't blame her, he knew that this was Yue Xiaoyue's youth, and he wanted to prove himself too much!
However, in order to prevent the little girl from listening to the advice and coming again, he simply took her to the place that Chen Xiao said. Anyway, being idle is idle, and waiting is not always a solution!
It was a col surrounded by mountains, and it had been filled with potholes dug by the previous officials, and some of the large pits had seeped water at the bottom to form puddles. Judging from the current level of excavation, it is indeed impossible to bury a body in it.
However, why did Chen Xiao swear that it was here?
Zhou Zheng raised his eyes and looked into the distance, carefully observing the terrain around the col. The mountains on all sides are stone mountains, which are not suitable for burying corpses, only this low col, the soil is soft, and the entrance and exit is a narrow crack between the two mountains, and the geographical location is hidden, which is indeed suitable for throwing corpses and burying corpses.
What's the problem? Zhou Zheng looked around carefully, not wanting to let go of any clues.
However, Yue Xiaoyue, who was following Zhou Zheng, didn't care about this, and saw that in the season of the tenth winter wax moon, the mountain col was still full of spring and flowers, happily running around, picking flowers and catching butterflies, and picking a large handful of flowers of all colors in a short time.
She happily ran back to Zhou Zheng's side, "Is it good-looking?" You smell it, it's fragrant! ”
Zhou Zheng is really helpless about this girl. When is this and is she still in the mood to play?
"It smells, it smells!" Zhou Zheng said two perfunctory sentences.
Seeing that he couldn't find anything here, he planned to leave with Yue Xiaoyue.
But suddenly, I saw Yue Xiaoyue's face flushed, her eyes like silk, staring straight at Zhou Zheng, and asking him with shortness of breath, is she beautiful?
This is, a kind of fragrant poison!
Zhou Zheng was shocked. How can there be such incense poison in the col?
At this time, Yue Xiaoyue couldn't hold herself anymore, she was frantically tearing her clothes, and she was firmly sticking to Zhou Zheng, and she also tore Zhou Zheng's clothes hard.
Zhou Zheng subconsciously wanted to push her away. But suddenly, he also felt his blood boiling, and he couldn't help but hold Yue Xiaoyue tightly in his arms, and rolled into the dense grass more than half a person tall next to him.
After a while, there was a dark laughter in the air, and a large stone not far from here suddenly came to life, stretching out to reveal a young man wearing the service of Jiuhua Mountain.
"What immortal rank? It's all for nothing under my soft fragrance! ”
Even so, the man did not dare to be careless, took out an iron tower from his body, and threw it into the air. The tower rose to the wind, and then firmly suppressed the rapidly shaking grass.
With the man's "receive", the tower became smaller again and landed firmly on the palm of his hand. Looking at the grass that Zhou Zheng and Yue Xiaoyue rolled into, it had turned into a big pit, and the entire grass had been collected into the iron tower!
"The cultivation of the sixth layer of the immortal level is still a spirit body, and this time I have made a lot of money!" The man muttered excitedly, "It should be enough for Master!" I don't know, Master can reward me with this girl, she looks so beautiful! ”
The man smirked and turned to leave. However, all of a sudden, I felt that there was wind behind it. He didn't have time to dodge, so he hurriedly sacrificed the iron tower in his hand behind him.
There was a piercing cracking sound, and the tower was split in half.
This is a magic weapon of the immortal level, how can it be destroyed in a single look?
The man was stunned.
The knife is too fast! The man didn't have time to react, and then a piercing sword shadow descended from the sky, cutting off one of his arms impartially.
The man screamed, and then remembered to run away. Unfortunately, it was already late.
A long knife rested around his neck, and if he dared to move, his head would fall to the ground in no time.
"Who are you? Why should design hurt us? ”
It was only then that the man could see the face of the man with the sword. Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhou Zheng? However, wasn't Zhou Zheng accepted by the iron tower? He was puzzled.
"I, I, I said. My name is Yunchi, yes, yes, I am the younger brother of Jiuhua Mountain, the disciple, the elder. ”
This time it was Zhou Zheng's turn to be surprised. Yun Chi, isn't it the ninth corpse he was looking for? Why didn't he die? How can you ambush yourself here?
Zhou Zheng has too many questions. He asked out in a hurry, forcing Yun Chi to answer.
The knife just now obviously scared Yun Chi out of his guts, and he stammered tremblingly, "I, I, I, yes, yes, at that time, yes... I, I, meet..."
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and a flying knife hit Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng hurriedly waved his knife to resist. However, the strength of the flying knife was very strong, and Zhou Zheng was stunned to take three or four steps back.
Then, more than a dozen throwing knives followed.
Zhou Zheng, who was on guard, brandished his long knife and quickly knocked these flying knives to the ground.
However, with this short delay, Yun Chi hurriedly teleported away. When Zhou Zheng tried to find his traces again, he found that his teleportation space had been artificially shattered, and Yunchi was nowhere to be found.
Zhou Zheng looked at the sky with a solemn expression. The flying knife just now was definitely done by an immortal-level person, and his cultivation was not below Bai Er.
Some time ago, when he fought with Bai Er, Zhou Zheng discovered the shortcomings of his spirit body. That is, to punch with a spirit body, the power is too small, and it is not enough to pose a threat to the people of the immortal rank. If the other party has a magic weapon to protect the Yuan Shen, Zhou Zheng has no way to take the other party.
And his own spirit body is very fragile! Even if it is not a magic weapon to restrain the spirit body, an ordinary immortal-level magic weapon can also cause some damage to his spirit body. Unless, Zhou Zheng used the speed advantage of the spirit to dodge it all.
After coming back, the more Zhou Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that this was not a solution, his attack power was equivalent to falling to the first level of the immortal level, and it was not even as good as the first level of the immortal level! If you encounter a more difficult opponent in the future, doesn't it mean that you can only wait to be killed?
Therefore, Zhou Zheng began to try various methods again and again to improve his attack power. Not to mention, after failing again and again, he finally found a way to make up for the lack of physical defects with knife techniques.
The ultimate essence of the Five Elements Knife Method is nothing, although Zhou Zheng has not yet fully comprehended its essence, but now there is no physical bondage, and it is natural to achieve the unity of human and knife.
At this time, if he used the earth-shattering two forms, it was even higher than the power of the fifth-layer Nirvana Fist. This is also why, Zhou Zheng can now split the high-grade magic weapon of the immortal level with one sword! This made Zhou Zheng overjoyed!
It's a loss, otherwise, the flying knife just now is not a vulgar thing, if there is no exquisite knife technique to resist, even if Zhou Zheng's life is not for a while, it will seriously hurt his Yuan Shen.
Who is the person who attacked with a throwing knife? Zhou Zheng frowned deeply.
What happened just now was really thrilling. Yue Xiaoyue was hit by Rou Si Xiang, but Zhou Zheng was a spirit body, and he was naturally immune to this poisonous incense.
The reason why he pretended that he was also poisoned was to see who the person behind it was?
The moment he rolled into the grass with Yue Xiaoyue in his arms, he had already taken Yue Xiaoyue to hide aside, using the cover of the vines.
The tower was indeed a treasure, but unfortunately, it did not suppress anything but a piece of turf.
Zhou Zheng also didn't understand, this Yunchi obviously knew that he was a spirit, how could he be stupid and think that he was also poisoned? I was really deceived by myself?
However, how could Yun Chi know that he was a spirit body at the sixth layer of the Immortal Rank that had not yet been successfully shaped?
This matter, except for a few people in the Law and Punishment Division, knows about it, it is Yifan and Yun Ling, as well as Lin Shu and Bai Er.
The immortal rank person who used the flying knife just now was definitely not a demon clan, and Lin Shu hid, and Bai Er and the three of them fled directly back to Kunlun Xu, never came out again. It is unlikely that you will get the message from them that you are spirits.
Yifan and Yun Ling, Zhou Zheng can be trusted, even if they are close people, they will never easily disclose this news.
Then, only the Department of Punishment remains! Could it be that the traitor also knows that he is a spirit? In that case, the scope would be much narrower! Because, there are only a handful of people who really know!
Although Zhou Zheng was very sorry to let Yunchi escape, the clues were clearer, which made him very happy!
Looking at Yue Xiaoyue, who had been sealed by himself but was still in extreme longing, Zhou Zheng could only look for a nearby stream and soak her in it.
This poison is not easy to decompose, and it can only be lifted by water and time.
After Yue Xiaoyue was fully awake, Zhou Zheng took her back to the inn. Yue Xiaoyue hid in her room, changed her clothes, and was too ashamed to come out again.
Although it was poisoning just now, she remembered the past vividly. Thinking about how she was not reserved in front of Zhou Zheng at that time, she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Zhou Zhengke next door was not in the mood to help her resolve the embarrassment, he was checking the information that came, comparing them one by one, outlining the ins and outs of the matter.
According to the available information, this thing should be like this.
A year ago, Shanwei met Chen Xiao, and took advantage of his greed to cultivate Buddha and become an immortal, and asked Chen Xiao to use the confusion of being a child to lure people who cultivate truth, and take the opportunity to take Jade Ruyi to suck away their spiritual power. If the cultivation of immortals is too high, Chen Xiao will secretly inform Shanwei, and the master and apprentice will work together to subdue and kill the comer.
These absorbed spiritual power essences were not for Chen Xiao's use, but were absorbed and refined by Shanwei. Therefore, Chen Xiao is indeed a mortal, and he has no spiritual power on his body.
As for Yun Chi, maybe he had already colluded with Shanwei early on, or perhaps, after being captured, he turned to Shanwei and helped to abuse him.
Dao Xin's management of the sect is very strict, the first possibility is not big, otherwise, it is impossible for Yun Chi to hide from Dao Xin for so long.
Then there is a second possibility.
That iron tower, although it is not as direct as Yu Ruyi, can directly absorb spiritual power, but it can suppress the people who are captured.
Although Zhou Zheng did not enter the tower, he could still feel the extraordinaryness of the tower when he fought, and it was estimated that he was really trapped in the tower, and he would definitely not be able to escape for a while!
Moreover, Yun Chi said to himself that these spiritual power essences were indeed for his master. His master should be a good deed!
If so, it makes sense. Chen Xiao deliberately said that place in order to lure himself there. Then, Shanwei asked Yunchi to set up an ambush there, while he himself hid in the shadows to answer.
If it is successful, it will be enough, if it is, Yunchi is captured, and good deeds can kill people and retreat!
This guy's heart is still as vicious as before!
Now, although Yunchi escaped, after all, the operation failed! Will Shanwei cut off the clues for self-preservation?
If that's the case, Chen Xiao will really be in danger!
Zhou Zheng immediately set off to the Law and Punishment Department to see Wen Ruyuan and request a dream trial of Chen Xiao!
Detaining mortal souls out of the body is very harmful to mortals themselves, which is not allowed by the rules of heaven. Therefore, if the Judicial Department needs to interrogate mortals, they must create a dream in which their soul is captured, shackled, and tortured.
It's a bit like the hall of Hades. It's just that that's the real Yin Division Judgment Ghost, and this is the judgment soul of the Yang World.
With Wen Ruyuan's permission, Zhou Zheng took a few officials and Yue Xiaoyue to the death row where Chen Xiao was held at night.
Laying a blinding spell and setting up an enchantment, everyone sat around Chen Xiao's body and entered his dream together.
Chen Xiao was chained and put on an iron shackle in a daze, and under the push and shove of the hideous-looking bull ghost and snake god, he stumbled into the middle of a vicious hall standing with a blue face and fangs, holding a copper hammer and iron rod.
There is a high case in the hall, and behind the case sits a majestic official, and next to the official stands a female ghost with a cape and a magnificent face.
"Chen Xiao, are you guilty?"
The sudden roar made Chen Xiao tremble.
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, the evil evil standing next to him picked up a hammer and smashed it on him, causing him to scream in pain.
"Chen Xiao, this is the Hades Palace, your life is all here, and the crimes you have committed are too numerous to mention! Do you tell the truth yourself, or do you want to go through hell before confessing your guilt? ”
To be honest, Chen Xiao is still a little stupid now. He remembered that during the day, he was tortured by that extremely hateful catcher with a thousand knives, and he finally fell asleep with the pain, how did he end up in the palace of Hades?
Is he dead?
However, Master told himself that he couldn't die. Could it be that the Master deceived himself?
Seeing that he hadn't opened his mouth, another thick iron rod was struck on the back, followed by another hammer! It hurt so much that he almost ran out of breath. The reality of dying scared his heart.
"I say, I say!"
As soon as Chen Xiao spoke, the iron rod and copper hammer no longer fell.
Chen Xiao took the opportunity to gasp for breath. He was really scared!
"Lord Hades, don't fight anymore, I'll say it!"
