Chapter 252: Blood Book
Since the master was playing tricks, Chu Fan asked Murong Xue another question.
"You just talked about the importance of the Star of Light, but you didn't tell me why you brought it to the country of Youyi."
Murong Xue replied, "When we rescued Qin Shu, we found a blood letter on him. After handwriting examination, it can be determined that it is a handwritten letter from the previous Tengyun, about 50 years ago. ”
Chu Fanton knew that this was a blood letter written by Teng Yun when Youyi Guo cut off contact with the outside world, and it was likely that he was killed shortly after writing this blood letter.
This shows that there was a serious civil strife in Youyi at that time, and after the usurper took power, in order to escape the punishment of the Dark Moon Division, he deliberately turned Youyi into an isolated island.
Chu Fan hurriedly asked, "What is the content of the blood book?" ”
"Hurry up and bring the Star of Light to the country of Youyi to stop the catastrophe of the world."
"That's all there is to it?"
"Yes."
Seeing Murong Xue nodding very affirmatively, Chu Fan laughed out loud.
Murong Xue and Gongsun Bai looked at Chu Fan in surprise.
Chu Fan said with a smile: "Is Tengyun's old man serious? More than 50 years have passed, and there has been no catastrophe in the world. ”
He thinks it's funny, these days, he has been saying that there is a world catastrophe at every turn, just like the plot of the bad street in the online novel, which is really a bit of a grass and tree.
Chu Fan was very optimistic, but Zhong Lifei had a different opinion.
He said very seriously: "The blood book written by Tengyun at the cost of his life must have a basis, not groundless. ”
Chu Fan thought to himself, so he said: "No matter what the reason is, anyway, we have to go to Youyi Country, and we will see the situation after landing on the island." ”
Zhong Lifei nodded silently.
Chu Fan asked again: "The Dark Moon Division has not been able to enter the Youyi Country for fifty years, will we go and return empty-handed?" ”
Zhong Li Fei said: "There must be a way to get in, but no one has discovered it for the time being." ”
After being reminded by the master, Chu Fan immediately came to his senses.
"I understand, since Qin Shu has a way to leave, it means that there is a secret passage between the country of Yi and the outside world that is not known to outsiders."
"Little brother is right."
Murong Xue said with a smile: "Since the Yi Kingdom has cut off contact with the outside world, over the years, in the southernmost part of the continent, which is also the last stop for you to go to sea by boat, there are occasionally some strange people in the coastal cities of the Xuangu Kingdom. ”
"Who are these people?"
"They are covered in black robes and have scarves on their faces, so that people can't see their true faces......"
"This must be someone from Yi Guo!"
"Yes!" Murong Xue nodded in response.
It sounded like the Arabs in modern society were dressed up, and Chu Fan could easily guess that they were from the country of Youyi.
The reason why they cover their whole bodies tightly is to prevent others from seeing their strange shapes, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
Murong Xue also said: "They came to Xuangu Country for only one purpose, that is, to buy a large number of various items, and they spent generously, and every time they used gold to shop, they were very popular with local merchants. ”
Chu Fan asked, "With such a rich customer, aren't the locals curious?" ”
"They quickly attracted the attention of some thieves, but all the unscrupulous people who attacked them were killed by them, which let the local residents know that this is a group of powerful immortal cultivators, and over time, no one dares to provoke them, let alone inquire about their origins."
After being slightly stunned, Murong Xue said again: "Ordinary people don't dare to provoke, but that is the jurisdiction of our Dark Moon Division Vermilion Bird Hall, and the hall master Zhu Curtain secretly sent the top tracking master in the hall to investigate this matter. ”
Chu Fan hurriedly asked, "What clues did you find?" ”
"These people are very ostentatious when they buy things, but they are very secretive in transporting goods, and they always choose to transport their goods to the beach in the dead of night."
"It seems that they don't want others to know that they are Yi Guo?"
"Yes, the spies sent out came back to report that they got into the belly of the copper fish with people and goods, and quietly left the Xuangu country."
Sure enough, it's a submarine!
Chu Fan almost screamed, but he no longer had any doubts about it.
Zhong Lifei suddenly asked, "Have you investigated the list of all the goods traded by these people?" ”
"Of course, I have investigated, and basically all kinds of goods are available, and the most purchased is saltpeter."
Hearing this, Chu Fan was speechless in shock.
Saltpeter is one of the main raw materials for ancient people to make explosives, which shows that there is not much saltpeter production in China, and these guys urgently need more saltpeter to expand their strength.
This is typically a game of separation, and the culprit relies on powerful high-tech weapons to protect himself, even if he has ambitions to annex coastal states.
But why did they keep shrinking in Youyi Kingdom, which made Chu Fan a little puzzled.
He became more and more curious, and he couldn't wait to go to Youyi Country to have a glimpse.
At this moment, Li Fang and the others came back with the rescued hostages.
Seeing that many monks were safe and sound, the Void Master was grateful, and expressed his gratitude to Zhong Lifei and the others again and again.
Chu Fan also burst into tears, and walked over to talk to the senior brothers.
For a while, the scene was a little warm.
Murong Xue and Gongsun Bai saw that the matter of the Great Compassion Temple was almost over, so they said goodbye to Zhong Lifei and left.
After saying goodbye to the two of them, Zhong Lifei called Song Zhen and the others over.
"You are now my disciples of the Xuanwu Sect......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Fang's eyes suddenly widened.
"Isn't it, so many people have been accepted into the Xuanwu Gate by the master?"
He immediately stood in front of him and said loudly: "Listen to me, since I have entered my Xuanwu Sect, I am your senior brother, and if the head of the sect is not in the future, you have to listen to my ...... in everything."
"Presumptuous!"
Zhong Lifei shouted loudly, and Li Fang, who was frightened, didn't dare to make a sound.
Zhong Lifei said to Song Zhen with a pleasant face: "I entrust you with one thing now, I hope you can agree." ”
"Master has something to say, please speak, disciple listen."
"Don't go back to the Cangshan faction, take my unsuccessful disciples to the Xuanwu Sect together, and take care of each other."
When Li Fang heard this, he came back to his strength, and opened his mouth and said: "The head is right, follow me in the future, and keep you showing off your power one by one!" ”
Zhong Lifei glared at him coldly and said his plan in public.
"Before I come back, you will temporarily take over the position of head of the sect and take care of everything in the Xuanwu Gate for me."
"The disciple obeys." Song Zhen nodded in response.
Zhong Lifei spoke, and the other disciples of the Xuanwu Sect had no opinion, but Li Fang was not happy.
He whispered to Zhong Lifei: "How can you let an outsider be in charge, I am the senior brother of the Xuanwu Sect!" ”
Zhongli said sharply: "You still have the face to say!" Many of your fellow disciples were imprisoned, Boss Huang and others died, what responsibility did you have at that time as a senior brother? ”
A sentence made Li Fang's face full of shame.
Zhong Lifei said again: "No matter how honest you are, I will rearrange a coal digging job for you!" ”
At this moment, Li Fang didn't dare to talk anymore, so he had to honestly obey Zhong Lifei's arrangement.
