Chapter 447: Attacker Xiaotian, Timely Rain and Moheng
When meeting the monks in the gathering place, it seemed that Tang Xiaotian was the only one from beginning to end. However, in reality, there are two "unsung heroes" behind everything, these two are Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue. Tang Xiaotian walked freely, ignoring what happened after the monks. And the two people who were secretly in charge of the back of the hall were full of follow-up things.
"Why did this bastard neglect in the end? The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed in an anthill, and it was in vain if he was found out after acting for a long time!"
Chen Luoxue seemed to blame Tang Xiaotian, but there was no meaning of complaining in her tone. Obviously, she is just talking about it.
"Maybe he can't help it!"
Xu Chenglin frowned, then his brows stretched, and he said with a smile.
"Can't help it?"
Muttering these four words, Chen Luoxue carefully recalled the situation just now, and suddenly seemed to think of something.
"Are you saying that Xiaotian's state of mind has changed! What happened to him just now, is the sudden change in mood still continuing?"
Although Chen Luoxue asked Xu Chenglin, she had already confirmed in her heart that it was not far from ten.
Nodding slightly, Xu Chenglin gave her a confirmed answer. Chen Luoxue nodded, looking like it was really like this.
Sensing that the monks in the gathering place were gradually shifting the subject, the two looked at each other and felt that there was no need to stay any longer. Quietly and silently left the gathering place, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue chased after Tang Xiaotian.
Tang Xiaotian's mood changed, and he didn't realize it. And Chen Luoxue and Xu Chenglin, who are insiders, have no intention of telling him now. A sudden change in mood is very rare, and if he tells Tang Xiaotian now, it will make him care too much, and he will end the mood change early. Instead of this, it is better to let him immerse himself in this state for a while longer, so as to lay the foundation for advancing to the late stage of condensation in the future.
The three of them knew the general situation of the strangeness of Ask Sword City, and they began to try to inquire and rescue this strangeness. Some people may ask at this time, and the monks in Ask Sword City have inquired for so long, but they have not completely solved the mystery of Ask Sword City. With the help of the three of them who had just arrived at the Qi Condensing Cultivators, how could they find out the strangeness of the Sword City?
In fact, there is a common saying about this, whether it is in the ordinary world or in the cultivation world, that is, when you are in the situation and do not know the situation, it is often some outsiders who can see the truth of the whole thing. The whole question of Sword City may be a bureau. Ask the laymen and monks in Sword City, they may all be insiders. It's usually hard to get someone in the game to solve the game. And Xu Chenglin, Tang Xiaotian and Chen Luoxue, the three people who arrived unexpectedly, were obviously outsiders to Jian Cheng.
In two days, the three of them, centered on Chen Luoxue, launched an investigation in Wenjian City. Since Tang Xiaotian appeared once in front of many monks, this time he changed his appearance. Even Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue were no exception, and they also used exercises to change their appearance.
The three of them first suspected that the mortals in Sword City had been poisoned by some kind of strange poison, but after Chen Luoxue quietly checked the pulse of many people, they found that there was nothing abnormal in their bodies. Without giving up, Chen Luoxue visited around again, but she didn't find anything strange. Whether it was asking about the water source of Sword City, the various food sources or the high altitude in the city, Chen Luoxue did not have any abnormal places.
In the inn, the three of them sat around the table. Xu Chenglin and Tang Xiaotian pondered for a moment, and both turned their gazes to Chen Luoxue.
"The laymen here don't have symptoms such as poisoning, and all kinds of situations in Sword City are normal. It seems that the symptoms of these people are not caused by poisoning. ”
After Chen Luoxue's examination was fruitless, she finally came to this conclusion.
Xu Chenglin and Tang Xiaotian did not have any doubts, because Chen Luoxue was an authority in terms of medical skills. The Phantom Cult is known as the unparalleled doctor of poison, which is recognized by several major forces. Although his disciples have their own high and low levels, they are difficult to match in the way of poison medicine in other sects, which is not just talking.
"In this way, the strangeness of Ask Sword City is because of the spell! Those monks before suspected that it was a ghost made by Taixuanzong, but they couldn't find any evidence. Although there is some truth in this speculation, there is something that makes no sense. Taixuanzong is obviously a sword cultivation sect, where did this weird spell come from. Third brother, do you Jiuhua Academy have similar spells?"
Tang Xiaotian expressed his opinion, but in the end, he passed the problem to Xu Chenglin.
Hearing Tang Xiaotian's question, Xu Chenglin subconsciously wanted to answer no. But when the words came to his lips, he hesitated again. Thinking about it slightly, Xu Chenglin replied.
"I'm not sure!"
"Huh?"
Xu Chenglin's answer suddenly surprised Tang Xiaotian. He didn't expect Xu Chenglin to give such an answer after thinking about it.
As if knowing Tang Xiaotian's reaction, Xu Chenglin nodded and began to speak.
"To be precise, I don't know much about the sect exercises of Jiuhua Academy. During the tempering period, the exercises that everyone practiced were all righteous and peaceful songs. And when it comes to the condensation period, everyone's exercises begin to be varied. It is also a sword cultivation method, some people are masculine, some people are feminine, some people are upright, and some people are treacherous. This is just a sword cultivation method, and as for other cultivation directions, Jiuhua Academy also has them. The sword cultivation sect is mainly based on sword cultivation, but it is not necessarily that there are no other exercises. Vicious and weird exercises and spells may not be absent from various sects. It's just that no one will take the initiative to say it until it is exposed. Moreover, there is no good or evil in the essence of the exercises, and the viciousness and weirdness are just because they are not familiar with the senses that give people. As a simple example, if we kill a mortal with a simple five-element spell, they will also find it vicious and weird. ”
Xu Chenglin's words made Tang Xiaotian seem to understand, and he frowned slightly and thought carefully about Xu Chenglin's words. About half a cup of tea later, Tang Xiaotian suddenly looked up at Xu Chenglin.
"Third brother, you said that you are vicious and weird just because you are not familiar with people's senses. This asks the situation in Sword City, could it be a spell that all monks are not familiar with. ”
If you are an uninformed person, you will definitely say that what Tang Xiaotian said is nonsense. But the two who knew Tang Xiaotian understood what he meant.
Ask the monks in Sword City, whether they are casual cultivators or sect monks. In short, whether it is them, or the forces behind them, it is difficult to compare with Taixuanzong. It was not surprising that Taixuanzong came up with some spell that they didn't understand. As for why the three of them didn't understand the so-called spells, it was not surprising. Because the three of them are not Holy Land monks at all, even if they have traveled south and north to experience countless things, they do not know some things about the Holy Land.
"Sure enough, it is still in the mood of sudden change, this thinking is agile!"
Secretly praised Tang Xiaotian, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue glanced at each other.
"Now it seems that I can only wait for the second brother to arrive!"
Shaking his head slightly, Tang Xiaotian reluctantly made a final summary.
Indeed, although there are three people with three eyes, six ears and three mouths, the three of them are tied together, and they don't know as much about the Holy Land as Chen Moheng. There is no other reason, for the familiar!
"Huh?"
Suddenly felt the storage bag vibrate, and Chen Luoxue wiped it and directly took out a talisman. Tang Xiaotian took a look and found that the talisman that flashed with spiritual light in Chen Luoxue's words was the transmission note.
"Heh! I really fell asleep and sent a pillow! This second brother came in time!"
With a chuckle, a happy smile appeared on Tang Xiaotian's face.
As if to cooperate with him, Chen Luoxue gently activated the transmission note, and Chen Moheng's voice sounded from the transmission note.
"I'm in Sword City, where are you!"
It's just a simple sentence, but the three of them heard a sense of exhaustion. They estimated the time and found that Chen Moheng's journey time should be about four days. It took more time than that when the three of them came, but that was on the basis of not rushing with all their might. If you go all out, the three of you can reach it in three days. And Chen Moheng only arrived in Sword City in about four days, and he still looked tired, which was a bit strange.
The same thought turned around in the minds of the three of them, and Chen Luoxue quickly reported their whereabouts. Chen Moheng on the other side didn't say anything, just hummed softly.
Chen Moheng's answer with this sentence should have reassured the three of them. But somehow, Chen Luoxue was a little uneasy in her heart. She vaguely felt that Chen Moheng must have encountered something unexpected on the way to come.
"I'll pick it up!"
Saying that, Chen Luoxue didn't wait for the two to agree, and left in a hurry. Xu Chenglin frowned slightly, and also chased him out.
"Oh, let's go!"
Tang Xiaotian shouted, and also chased after the two.
As soon as the three of them walked out of the door of the inn, they were greeted by a man who was rushing in the dust. Chen Luoxue looked at the man and found that it was his brother who came in disguise. couldn't help but say, Chen Luoxue pulled Chen Moheng and walked upstairs. Seeing this, Xu Chenglin and Tang Xiaotian also followed upstairs together.
The four of them closed the door in the house and sat down, and Xu Chenglin casually arranged the next soundproof barrier. Looking at the tired look between Chen Moheng's eyebrows, Chen Luoxue asked with concern.
"What happened, why does my brother look so tired?"
"It's nothing! There was just a fight on the way here!"
Smiling lightly, Chen Moheng didn't want to say more, but just said lightly.
"What the hell is going on!"
Chen Luoxue frowned, and the concern in her tone turned into stern at this moment.
"Okay, good!" I said!
Knowing his little sister's temper, Chen Moheng hurriedly raised his hand to surrender.
Taking a light breath, Chen Moheng thought for a while before telling him about the incident he had met on the way to Tongmendou. After hearing this, the three of them were a little helpless. This kind of thing is inevitable no matter which sect it is. It's just that Chen Moheng's luck was a little bad this time, and he met the same door when he was in a hurry. In order not to delay time, Chen Moheng consumed a lot of spiritual power because of the follow-up acceleration.
When Chen Moheng first arrived in Sword City, he looked like he was consuming a lot of spiritual power. He shouldn't have told him about the matter in Sword City at this time, but thinking that this matter was related to the lives of ordinary people in Sword City, Tang Xiaotian still decided to talk to him immediately. Taking a light breath and straightening his expression slightly, Tang Xiaotian slowly spoke.
"Second brother, have you found out what's wrong with asking Sword City?"
Hearing Tang Xiaotian ask this, Chen Moheng didn't answer yet, but Chen Luoxue wanted to stop it. But she opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. She also knew that asking about things in Sword City was a matter of human life. Although she felt a little sorry for her brother, Chen Luoxue still chose to let Tang Xiaotian go.
Chen Luoxue's movements were naturally seen by Chen Moheng, and he smiled at Chen Luoxue to signal that he was fine. Then he turned his head to look at Tang Xiaotian, but said with a smile.
"What a little five! I have grown my skills, and I have learned to test your second brother!"
Chen Moheng thought that Tang Xiaotian would reply to him with a smile, but he didn't know that Tang Xiaotian still looked like that. Suddenly realizing that things might be a bit big, Chen Moheng also put away his smile. He closed his eyes slightly, and relived the scene when he entered Sword City in his mind.
After some recollection, Chen Moheng didn't find anything strange. Although there were many people entering the city in front of the city gate, it was in an orderly manner. After entering the city, Chen Moheng saw the people living and working in peace and contentment, and he didn't find anything abnormal. glanced at Tang Xiaotian suspiciously, and Chen Moheng looked at Chen Luoxue and Xu Chenglin again. Seeing that the three of them were all very serious and didn't mean to joke at all, Chen Moheng closed his eyes again and thought about it.
The time of half a cup of tea passed in a flash, and Chen Moheng recalled the scene he saw in Wenjian City several times, but he didn't find anything abnormal. There is a good saying, read a book a hundred times and see its meaning. Just when he was about to give up, Chen Moheng suddenly felt as if the situation he had seen before was a little strange. But what is strange, I can't find it for a while.
Opening his eyes suddenly, Chen Moheng wanted to look out. But as soon as he stood up, he first saw three faces on both sides with unchanged expressions.
"Expressions, yes! The expressions of the people outside are wrong!"
At this moment, Chen Moheng suddenly came to his senses. No wonder he always felt that something was wrong before, it turned out that the expressions of the people he saw were wrong. After having this guess, Chen Moheng recalled what he had seen before, and suddenly found that the people he saw in Qian Jiancheng were all happy expressions. And this expression is surprisingly consistent. No wonder I couldn't find out the weirdness of Ask Sword City before, who would be idle and have nothing to do with the evil expressions of strangers.
"These people have all happy expressions on their faces, and their expressions are surprisingly consistent!"
Chen Moheng looked at the three of them and said the answer in his heart.
Whether it was Tang Xiaotian or Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue, their eyes lit up when Chen Moheng said this answer. The answer given by Chen Moheng contained a point that they had overlooked. They just noticed that everyone had the same expression, but they ignored that the expressions of these people were surprisingly consistent.
You must know that different people express the same emotion, and their expressions will also be different. The same is the expression of the message, some people express it with a smile, some people express it with laughter, and some people simply hide their joy and sullenness in their hearts...... And the people in Sword City are different, and their expressions of joy are all the same gentle smiles.
Hearing that Chen Moheng had also discovered the strangeness of asking Sword City, Tang Xiaotian told him about the things narrated by the monks in Sword City. When Chen Moheng heard that this matter might have something to do with Taixuanzong, his brows furrowed inadvertently. To be honest, he didn't want to ask about the matter of Sword City related to Taixuanzong. But things backfired, and things went in the direction of the worst.
"The three of us, under the leadership of the fourth sister, have already launched an investigation into the surroundings of Wenjian City. Ask the water source and food source of Sword City, as well as in the high altitude, nothing abnormal was found. Ask the mortals in Sword City, and there is no sign of poisoning. The fourth sister has ruled it out, and asked the possibility that the strangeness of Sword City was caused by poisoning. ”
Tang Xiaotian didn't pay attention to Chen Moheng's expression, and told the exclusion of the three of them again.
Looking up at Tang Xiaotian, Chen Moheng said softly.
"It seems that you have done a lot of work, so you should have roughly locked in the direction of the investigation. ”
Tang Xiaotian didn't hide it at this time, and said straight to the point.
"The three of us talked about it for a while, and decided that asking about the things in Sword City should be caused by some kind of spell that we were not familiar with. And this spell should be a spell native to the Holy Land. ”
Chen Moheng didn't reply, nor did he ask why the three of them were so sure that the spells of the Holy Land were native, because he also thought so in his heart. Tang Xiaotian and the things they thought of, Chen Moheng could also think of. To a certain extent, he had already confirmed that this was something that some people from Taixuanzong had done.
Why do you say that some people in Taixuanzong have done things, not the entire Taixuanzong things? This matter is actually very easy to explain, as can be seen from the fact that a monk went to Taixuanzong to report that he did not return. If it was something that the entire sect of Taixuanzong did, once it was discovered, they should have served all the monks in one pot, instead of letting it go like this. Only let the monk who reported the news not see, this is simply the instruction of someone or some people in Taixuanzong. It was a false impression deliberately created by them, so that the monks who asked Sword City mistakenly thought that this matter was arranged by the entire sect of Taixuan Sect.
"His heart can be punished! His heart can be punished!"
Two in a row appeared in Chen Moheng's mind. The first one can be punished, which refers to the people behind the Taixuanzong who manipulated the incident in Sword City, in order to achieve some ulterior purposes, they don't even take human life seriously;
"I also asked the second brother to carefully distinguish this spell and try to find a way to cure it. Help those monks who are fighting to protect their hometown, and pity the mortals in Sword City!"
Seeing that Chen Mo was silent for a long time, Tang Xiaotian said this in a hurry.
According to the relationship between the four people, this is a bit raw. But Chen Moheng's focus was not on the words themselves, but looked at Tang Xiaotian a little strangely.
"Old Five, this is a thing that everyone should do, but I wonder why you are so concerned?"
Tang Xiaotian paused for a moment, and then he thought about it before spitting out a few words.
"Everything from the heart, just to be worthy of!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Tang Xiaotian suddenly felt that he couldn't say how comfortable he was, and the spiritual power in his body seemed to fluctuate greatly. But at the same time, he felt as if he had done something wrong.
"It's a pity! If there are a few more days, I can't say that this guy will be able to reach the late stage!"
Seeing such a scene now, Chen Luoxue shook her head helplessly and sighed.
Chen Moheng reacted suddenly, and he slapped his head but secretly said that it was a pity. Unexpectedly, he just came over, and he helped the three of them to do something, but he inadvertently ended Tang Xiaotian's sudden change in mood.
