Chapter 53: Fang Immortal's factions are also rivers and lakes
The sky was dark, Li Xuanyu rushed to the outside of Hancheng, walked through the woods, and found the witch puppet grass man hanging on the tree, and there was a pile of charcoal ashes from the bonfire next to it, which was left by Zhang Xian who slept here overnight.
Li Xuanyu frowned slightly, the apprentice spent the night here, not being caught, that is to say, this stand-in spell was left by the apprentice himself, and the purpose was to get rid of the golden cicada.
"Xiaoyao, why don't you go to Shangqingdao, why do you use a stand-in spell?"
Li Xuanyu was puzzled, this apprentice's behavior was too abnormal.
Moreover, with this apprentice's way, he was able to get rid of the runes she left behind? He didn't even alarm her in the slightest, but he was removed in an instant, and he made arrangements, and when she noticed it, she only found this stand-in spell, and she must have gone far at this moment.
"Hey...... The talent of this apprentice is really unfathomable. ”
Li Xuanyu sighed, she already understood that all this was the layout of the apprentice, and she had not encountered any unforeseen things, she was finally a little relieved.
But the more she thought about it, the more she didn't understand, why did the apprentice play this golden cicada shell?
Could it be that she is not good enough, and the apprentice actually doesn't want her?
What the apprentice said to her before, was he deceiving her?
Thinking of this, Li Xuanyu felt a little inexplicable loss in his heart, and some grievances and anger, and he wanted to dig three feet into the ground to arrest this apprentice back and ask him clearly, but the apprentice's whereabouts could no longer be found.
She seemed to understand a little, why Qin Ziyun was so aggrieved and angry, she also wanted to scold at the moment, this apprentice was really a bastard.
At this moment, Li Xuanyu sensed something, and it was Zhou Xiucheng who sent an idea, asking her if she was in the city, Li Xuanyu was in a bad mood, she was disturbed by her thoughts, and her mood was even worse, so she directly closed her own qi, cut off Zhou Xiucheng's thoughts, and turned around and went to the city.
At this time, it was already dawn, Xie Hou's Mansion was murderous, and there were guards standing inside and outside, Xie Yuanqing's body had been preliminarily disposed of, parked in the main hall, with a soul suppression talisman pasted on his forehead, and an old man was inspecting.
This old man looks like he is seventy or eighty, his hair and beard are white, his face is old, but his eyes are clear, his back is straight, there is no ordinary old man hunched over, he is wearing a Taoist style, his head is tied with a hosta, he is carrying a sword bag, holding a peachwood cane, and a gourd hanging on the crutch, which makes people look like an immortal with fairy wind and bones.
This old man is none other than Zhou Xiucheng, a master from the Shangqing Spirit Rune Dao.
Next to him, there is also a middle-aged man, also wearing a Taoist robe, carrying a sword bag, followed by two disciples in the same attire, this is a senior disciple of the Shangqing Spirit Rune Dao, named Sun Ming, Dao Mingli, has already practiced the realm of God and returned to the void, and the two disciples with him are also practicing Qi and transforming the gods, both of whom have been enshrined by the imperial court, and each serves as the master of a general view.
This time, they followed Zhou Xiucheng out to track down the Heavenly Gate, and this area happened to be the territory of the Shangqing Spirit Rune Dao.
The imperial court canonized the three major Fangxian Zhengzong, and also sealed many side tribes, and the ancestors were all from the Sanqing.
However, between the authentic sect and these side branches, there is a big contradiction, each of them thinks that they are orthodox, and in the end they have to fight the method, but they can't fight the five elements of the big cave Xuantong, so they have to be unconvinced, and they admit it on the surface, but in fact they fight more fiercely, and they are very resistant to other factions in the territory of their respective preaching, and the area of Hanguan City is full of Taoist temples of the Spirit Rune Dao.
Of course, it is precisely because it is not authentic that the Tianmen gang is active in this area.
Zhou Xiucheng was cold at this moment, Li Xuanyu didn't reply just now, and broke his thoughts, this junior is too blind, even if Li Xuanyu's father comes, he has to call him a senior brother, but this junior actually dares to despise him.
Zhou Xiucheng had a fire in his heart, and after checking it, he sat aside, took off the gourd on the crutch, and in the gourd was the elixir immortal wine brewed by himself, and he drank it alone, and he didn't speak, but he was thinking about something in his heart.
Seeing this, Sun Mingli knew that this uncle had a fire, but he didn't know why, and he didn't want to ask.
The two apprentices next to him looked at the ancestor's gourd curiously, the wine in the gourd could not be drunk, this was a magic of the immortal family, but unfortunately they were not enough, and they could only hope and envy.
In the main hall, in addition to these Fang Immortal Dao people, the main figures of the Hou Mansion were also present, led by Xie Yuanqing's wife, who was crying at the moment, and the people next to him were relieved.
This wife is also from a wealthy family, but Xie Yuanqing has always been lukewarm to his wife, and his wife understands in her heart that Hou Ye's mind is different.
Now that Xie Yuanqing is dead, his wife is crying on the surface, but she is happy in her heart, and in the future, this Xie Hou Mansion will be her son's master.
"Old immortal, may I ask how the Hou Ye died of evil?" The wife wiped her tears and began to ask, trying to find out what the situation was.
Zhou Xiucheng had a cold face, but he didn't dare to trust Mrs. Xie, the so-called means of taking people, the shortest way to eat people, the spirit rune dao has a foothold in this area, Xie Hou's mansion is not less enshrined, gold, silver, jewelry and ginseng and lingzhi or something, there has never been less.
"Mrs. Xie, don't be impatient, this matter is a little tricky, the murderer is an evil demon, and the evil law is very tight. ”
Zhou Xiucheng said, first put on the hat of an evil devil, this is a commonly used routine in the rivers and lakes, no matter how big or small, as long as you come to find it, it must be a problem.
However, Zhou Xiucheng's words are not false, the other party's Taoism is not simple, Xie Yuanqing has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he is a master of strength, and his yang energy is very strong, plus as a prince, he holds great power and is in charge of heavy troops, his heart is very heavy, and he has the law to protect his body, and it is difficult for ordinary spells to be effective.
Zhou Xiucheng speculated that the murderer should be a Taoist above Bao Dan.
Of course, Zhou Xiucheng didn't know, for the sake of face, no one dared to say that Xie Yuanqing was indulgent last night, after all, this thing was not decent, and everyone didn't know how to do it, and they ignored it, and Zhou Xiucheng only thought that it was because of the evil magic that broke the yang energy.
"Mrs. Xie, rest for the time being, and wait for one person to come. ”
Zhou Xiucheng said that Tianmen was active in this area, and it was determined that this matter was related to Tianmen, and Tianmen was unfathomable.
At this time, there was a wisp of distortion from the ground, like ripples on the surface of the water, and I saw a Gu emerging from the ground, dressed in plain clothes, carrying a sword box, and wearing a green gauze hanging hat, it was Li Xuanyu who came.
When everyone present saw this scene, they couldn't help but exclaim, this is a spell of escape!
"Meet the Judge's Order. ”
Sun Mingli and the two apprentices bowed, although it was not in line with Shangqing Dao, but the basic rules had to be observed.
"Senior nephew, let so many people wait for you, you really have face. ”
Zhou Xiucheng spoke, his tone was a little dissatisfied, among the various factions of the Qing Dynasty, they all worshiped the same ancestor, and everyone was commensurate with the same family, which was to remind Li Xuanyu that he did not respect his teachers and respected his elders.
"Uncle Zhou, with you here, why urge me to come?"
Li Xuanyu said lightly, he was dumped by his apprentice, he was in an extremely bad mood, and his words were also very rushed, meaning that you are so powerful, go and fight with Tianmen by yourself.
"Huh?"
Zhou Xiucheng snorted coldly, and immediately became angry, but Zhou Xiucheng is not a general, he was angry on the surface, but he was very calm in his heart, and he saw that Li Xuanyu was angry, and he couldn't help but wonder what happened, he actually made Li Xuanyu angry, if it was something not very good, he would be interested in watching a joke.
"Haha, niece, cultivators of my generation, you have to be calm, you are impetuous, this is not good!"
Zhou Xiucheng laughed in a blink of an eye, and put on the appearance of an elder teaching a junior, very serious.
Li Xuanyu didn't talk again, where could he not see that Zhou Xiucheng was relying on the old and selling the old, he was too lazy to speak, his eyes turned, a trace of thunder flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Xie Yuanqing's corpse.
The yin and yang of the corpse were broken, it was the yin and yang spell, and the corpse's eyes were dead, the facial expression was hesitant and frightened, and the six gods had no master, obviously they were frightened and other spells.
Looking at the corpse again, the Yuan Shen was already scattered, the qi was suppressed by the soul calming talisman on his forehead, and he was between the Yin and Yang crossing the boundary, and the residual thoughts had not yet dissipated, but the residual thoughts were shattered, and there were no extra clues.
However, this thought shattering is an important clue.
"This spell ......"
Li Xuanyu raised her eyebrows, and saw the clue, she was too familiar with this scene, this was done by Lei Fa, and the residual qi of the Yin and Yang Technique was very similar to her apprentice.
"Hou Ye Xie first fell into the Yin Yang Technique, was broken by the Yang Qi, and then was hit by the Frightened Technique, the six gods had no master, lost resistance, and finally was crushed by Lei Fa's blow, and his soul was scattered, Master and niece, what do you think?"
Zhou Xiu is worthy of being an old Fang Immortal, his eyesight is perfect, and he can even see the order in which Zhang Xian casts his spells.
Yin and Yang art is widely spread, each sect and faction will have a little, it is considered a basic skill, this fright technique, there are many common, both are not easy to trace the source, but the Lei Fa is different, there are only a handful of factions, and the Lei Fa that killed Xie Yuanqing is the law of Shangqing Dao.
"Uncle Zhou has seen it, why do you need to ask me. ”
Li Xuanyu said lightly, he had returned to the coldness of Gujing Wubo, and he didn't bother to pay attention to Zhou Xiucheng's target, but wondered about his apprentice:
Why did the apprentice kill Xie Yuanqing?
And with the way of an apprentice, how could he kill Xie Yuanqing?
She could see that the apprentice did not use the sword of slashing the fan, but killed Xie Yuanqing with his own Taoism, this frightening technique, could it be the Yin and Yang family's forbidden six gods fear curse?
"Senior niece, where do you think this matter should be investigated?" Zhou Xiucheng continued to ask, and his tone was a little more smiling.
"Uncle Zhou, please speak up. Li Xuanyu knew that Zhou Xiucheng had caught Lei Fa and made it clear that he wanted to target her.
"Haha, then I won't shy away from it. ”
Zhou Xiucheng smiled and asked him to catch this handle, he wanted to see what Shangqing Dao said.
"The niece of the teacher is responsible for tracking down the demon girl, one is for official business, everyone is the right way, and they work together to deal with the evil sect, and the other is for the private affairs of the Qing Dao, cleaning up the portal by themselves, but the niece of the teacher has been tracking down to this area, and the person has not been caught, but Xie Hou Ye died at the hands of the evil man. ”
"The Lei Fa who killed Marquis Xie is clearly the law of Shangqing Dao, it must have been done by that demon girl, could it be that the niece of the teacher has the heart to cover it?"
"What? The evil man who murdered the Hou Ye has something to do with this aunt!" Hearing this, the people of Xie Fu couldn't sit still.
Although they didn't know how to do Taoism and couldn't understand any spells, they understood what they said, and it turned out that it was this female Taoist aunt who harbored the evil way and connived at the evil man to kill the Hou Ye.
"Someone!"
Mrs. Xie shouted, and several first-class masters outside immediately rushed in, followed by the guards rushing in, but Mrs. Xie did not act rashly, and bowed to Zhou Xiucheng: "Please ask the old immortal to be the master of my family, you must arrest this person and report the emperor's fate." ”
