One hundred and twenty-three spring language was interrogated abroad, and the innocent old woman was killed
Qiu Wuyan headed towards the country of Chunyu, at first it was uninhabited, and there were hardly a few people along the way. But she still carefully found a place to change into men's clothes, and after walking for a long time, she found that there were more and more pedestrians on the road.
The pedestrians looked in a hurry, hidden one by one, but they all seemed to be heading in one direction.
Qiu Wuyan was surprised to stop an old man who looked kind, and asked softly: "Old uncle, what happened to these people, and where are you going?"
The old man looked Qiu Wuyan up and down, leaned into her ear and said mysteriously: "This son, I see that you have a handsome face and extraordinary muscles, I might as well tell you this secret, the ladder of the Celestial Clan is wide open, it is said that you can go to the Celestial Clan from the top of the ladder, and cultivate the Tao to become an immortal, I see you, it is better to try your luck, maybe you can become an immortal!"
"The ladder, are all these people going to the ladder? It's a long way to go, and with so many people, nothing will happen!" Qiu Wu Yan'e frowned.
"Since ancient times, the survival of the fittest, it depends on whose ability is greater, especially at my age, it is much better than dying at home from old age, if you take the opportunity to get the art of immortality, it is 108,000 miles, and it is worth fighting this old bone!" the old man said and continued to chase after the large army in front.
"Hey, old uncle, but ......" Qiu Wuyan had stayed in the Heavenly Clan, and knew very well what that extraordinary person who cultivated immortals and became enlightened could do, so she wanted to stop the old man and persuade him to go home, but everyone was stunned, and they couldn't listen to any persuasion at all.
And the people of the Spirit Clan also heard the news, and took the opportunity to blend in with the team, killing innocents indiscriminately, robbing money, and doing all kinds of bad things.
Before Qiu Wuyan arrived at the gate of the Spring Language Country, she saw a large group of officers and soldiers in front of her who were checking the passing residents along the road, and an eldest lady came over from afar, Qiu Wuyan stepped forward to stop the eldest mother, and asked: "Auntie, I don't know what the officers and soldiers in front are investigating, is there something strange happening in the Spring Language Country?"
"Hey, this little brother, don't you know, there have been several murders in the city at night in recent days, and the people who died were all young and strong men, and the death was ......" The eldest lady shook her head and sighed repeatedly: "It's really miserable!"
"Then why didn't the officers and soldiers go to the scene of the crime to investigate the case, but instead ran away to this wilderness?" Qiu Wuyan looked puzzled.
"Not all the people of the city were in a hurry to get out of the city, but the city was nearly half empty, so the king decreed that no one should go out of the city without a decree, and the officers and soldiers were checking the edict, and those who did not have it were all taken back to the city. The eldest lady squinted and secretly looked at the officers and soldiers.
"Just because a few people died, everyone panicked and wanted to leave the place where they had lived all their lives?" Qiu Wuyan couldn't understand.
"This is only a very small number of people, and the vast majority of the inhabitants are here to seek the prescription of immortality!" the eldest lady said mysteriously, and saw several officers and soldiers come forward, hurriedly blending into the crowd, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Several officers and soldiers had a few flowers on their hats, and they held flower scimitars in their hands, and walked straight towards Qiu Wuyan, who was too late to dodge.
"Dare to ask this son, but he is going to the city?" a soldier who looked like a leader looked Qiu Wuyan up and down with his eyes.
Qiu Wuyan was afraid that the soldier would recognize her as a woman, so she hurriedly blocked her cheeks with her hand, and deliberately replied in a rough voice: "Yes, I don't go out of the city, I just want to go into the city to do something!"
"I see that you have clear eyebrows and elegant appearance, and many of the men who have died in this city recently are handsome, I advise you, don't go into the city!" the leading soldier tried to persuade Qiu Wuyan.
"Thank you for the reminder, but I do have an urgent matter, I must go to the city, please be accommodating!" Qiu Wuyan always raised her arms to cover her face.
"Have you ever seen this mark?" Suddenly, a man who looked like a senior stepped forward and pulled Qiu Wuyan's arm away, placing a notice in front of her eyes.
Qiu Wuyan looked up and saw a picture painted on the notice, which was the mark of the moon in the middle of the day. Qiu Wuyan was taken aback, stared intently at the picture, and exclaimed, "Keyday!"
"Why, it looks like you've seen this mark! Someone, arrest him!" the commander with the notice map in his hand shouted, and several flower soldiers surrounded Qiu Wuyan.
Qiu Wuyan knew that the scimitar in Hua Bing's hand was poisonous, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his arms to cover his mouth and nose.
"This person actually knows the military secrets of my Chunyu Country, and he recognizes the picture on this notice, it looks like he is neither male nor female, neither yin nor yang, and he must have nothing to do with those murders, hurry, quickly arrest him!" The commander suddenly threw the drawing in Qiu Wuyan's face, and then drew his knife and got up and rushed in front of Qiu Wuyan.
Qiu Wuyan flashed back slightly, and the chief jumped into the air, and was grabbed by the soldiers behind him, so he almost gained a foothold, and several flower soldiers around him saw this, and they all hesitated in place, not daring to step forward.
Seeing this, the surrounding crowd was not in a hurry to hurry, and surrounded one after another. The chief suddenly pounced, and for a moment he was annoyed and angry, shouting angrily at the flower soldiers around him, and the flower soldiers had no choice but to raise their flower knives and tremble and gradually approach Qiu Wuyan.
Qiu Wuyan didn't want to make a move with the Flower Soldiers, but seeing that the encirclement was getting smaller and smaller, she had no choice but to pull out the Soul Devouring Cord from her sleeve and wave it lightly into the air, trying to scare the Flower Soldiers away.
I saw that the Soul Eater Rope Wu spontaneously emitted a silver light, standing upright in the air.
The two groups of people hiding in the crowd secretly gathered separately, and if you looked closely, the eyes of several of them faintly flashed red, while the eyes of the other group were cold blue. Under the cover of the crowd, the two groups of people secretly approached the encirclement of the flower soldiers from the left and right sides respectively.
Because the two groups of people were staring at Qiu Wuyan intently, they didn't even notice each other's people.
Several flower soldiers stared at the whip chain in front of them with wide eyes and bewilderment, and the skeletons on the whip chain had their mouths wide open, as if ready to fall and tear them apart.
Seeing that the soldiers were hesitating, the two gangs secretly geared up and prepared to attack from behind and take Qiu Wuyan away.
Just as he was about to make a move, he heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from far and near, accompanied by a majestic shout: "Stop!"
The crowd then opened a gap, and a group of pink-clad maids rode in.
The leading maid was Bi Rou, Bi Rou jumped off the horse first, knelt in front of Qiu Wuyan and said, "Subordinates see the Lord of the Autumn Moon Pavilion!"
"Pavilion Master?" Seeing Birou's actions, the flower soldiers were puzzled. The leading chief pointed at Qiu Wuyan angrily and said, "Aunt Birou, this person is neither yin nor yang......
Before he finished speaking, he saw that Birou didn't know what hidden weapon flew out of his hand, and hit the chief's knees, and the chief let out a cry of pain, and then fell to his knees with a thud.
"Daring, dare to point fingers at the pavilion master, don't kneel down quickly!" Bi Rou shouted angrily.
Seeing this, all the flower soldiers threw down their flower knives and knelt on the ground, and the surrounding people also knelt on the ground.
"Pavilion master, his subordinates rushed to answer the notice after receiving the notice, but unfortunately it was still a step late, which frightened the pavilion master, and asked the pavilion master to punish the crime. Birou saw everyone kneeling down, and then looked up at Qiu Wuyan again.
"Aunt Birou, please get up, everyone get up!" Qiu Wuyan looked around at everyone, and with a slight lift of her hand, the silver-white whip chain suddenly entered her sleeve. Everyone looked carefully, and only then did they realize that the person in front of them dressed as a man was the new Autumn Moon Pavilion master of the Pink Clothes Pavilion on the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Birou stood up and draped a pink cloak on Qiu Wuyan's shoulder, Qiu Wuyan was slightly stunned, looked around, and said seriously: "I know that there have been murders in the city for several days, which makes everyone panic, but please believe me, I, the guardian of the Pink Clothes Pavilion, Chun Yuguo, guards the emperor, and I will give you an explanation." ”
"Confess, what kind of confession method? Can you come and promise that there will be no more deaths, and that you will be able to save my dead son? I think we should hurry to the heavenly ladder, maybe we can cultivate the Tao and become immortals, and we can save the life of my dead son!" said an old woman in the crowd tremblingly.
"Bold! How dare you speak to the pavilion master like this!" the previous flower soldier commander couldn't help but break into the crowd, pulled the old woman out, and escorted her in front of Qiu Wuyan.
"Let go of her!" Qiu Wuyan stopped sharply, and slowly stepped forward and grabbed the old woman's hand: "Mother-in-law, I deeply feel the pain of losing my relatives, but people can't be resurrected after death, how can ordinary mortals do it?"
Then he looked at the crowd and said loudly: "The ladder may really exist and can lead to the Heavenly Clan, but even so, who of you has ever heard of a mortal who has become an immortal and is immortal?"
The originally silent crowd instantly became noisy, and everyone talked and pointed fingers.
"Listen to me, hurry back to the city, why give up your happiness in front of you for an ethereal dream? Let's not talk about whether you can find the ladder in the end, let's just say that the ups and downs along the way, the danger and impermanence, can you bear it? Can you really bear to leave the home where you have lived for decades?" Qiu Wuyan held the old woman's hand tightly and asked in a loud voice.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely find out the murderer and give your son justice, I, Qiu Wuyan, made an oath here today, if I can't find out the murderer, then I will voluntarily resign from the position of the master of the Pink Clothes Pavilion, and wait for everyone!" Qiu Wuyan raised her finger to the sky and swore an oath, her eyes were firm, and her tone was resolute.
"Okay, then I'll trust you for the time being!" The old woman sighed deeply, and then turned back to look at everyone, "Folks, the pavilion master has said so, let's go back first!"
The crowd began to move, and everyone turned back to the city, Qiu Wuyan smiled and watched all this.
Suddenly, only to hear a terrible scream, the old woman just walked into the crowd, and the front of her was torn apart, the old woman snorted and fell to the ground, the crowd was instantly chaotic, and the people who were about to return to the city scattered and fled.
