Chapter 212: The True Goal (2)
At this time, Su Mu, who knew the most information, had completely straightened out the situation of the whole thing. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a wrong expectation, Chen Shaojie, the Mo family, Qing Yanguo and others did not plan to wait until the clan grand ceremony to make a move, but chose to attack before the forces of all parties were in place, and seized the time when Luojing's garrison was the emptiest.
The surprise attack is all about surprise, and there is no doubt that Chen Shaojie executed it very well this time.
Liu Changxi would never have thought that Chen Shaojie would choose to make trouble at this point in time. The crown prince knew very well that Zuo Xiang's ultimate goal was the royal family of Tunanguo, and he wanted to usurp the throne, but the prince always thought that the most likely stage would be the clan ceremony.
During the clan ceremony, because of the presence of dignitaries and nobles from various countries, the entire Tunan Imperial Palace will be open to the public. Considering the large number of prominent people, the entourage can almost crowd the entire palace, and it is impossible to do too detailed inspections in all aspects, and there are opportunities to take advantage of almost everywhere.
On the contrary, at the time of the clan conference, the Luojing Palace was still closed, guarded by the Praetorian Guards and palace guards, and the prince did not think that Chen Shaojie would break into the iron bucket formation at this time, so naturally he did not pay too much attention.
And Chen Shaojie just did this, doing the opposite.
Thinking about it like this, why did Chen Shaojie arrange for those little girls who traded with Qing Yanguo to leave from Luojing Wharf tonight? It should have been planned a long time ago, and it was expected that there would be chaos in Luojing tonight.
Although everyone was exhausted at this time, after some analysis by Autumn Dusk, everyone was also very aware of how urgent the current situation was. At this time, everyone couldn't help but speed up their pace and marched towards the clan camp at the bottom of the mountain.
After a dreary day of rain, the rain finally could not suppress the desire to pour, and the torrential rain once again shrouded the entire Luojing area in steaming water.
Calculating the time, it is almost the time of unitary, and the sky has become very dark. In addition to the sound of raindrops beating the grass and trees in the Weeping Yang Ridge, there was only the footsteps of the disciples of the Killing Clan moving forward quickly.
The journey down the mountain was not long, and in the blink of an eye, the disciples, under the leadership of Autumn Dusk and the others, had returned to the place where the mission had been released earlier. Originally, the directors of the major clan courts should have been busy working at this time, preparing the relevant statistics of the results of the preliminary competition, but at this moment, they couldn't even see half a figure.
There was a dead silence.
After thinking about it, Autumn Twilight decided to take everyone to the hall of the clan house management committee to take shelter from the rain first, and by the way, to accommodate the wounded. Wait until you look around and explore your surroundings before making a decision.
"What's going on, where have all the people gone?" Ding Ruoyan asked suspiciously.
"I don't know if they evacuated on their own initiative, or if something happened to them, let's wait for the wind to come back from their investigation. The most important thing for us at the moment is to strive for a quick recovery of cultivation, everyone's true qi is on the verge of exhaustion, so it is impossible to form combat effectiveness. ”
"There was no sign of a fight on the ground, and there was no smell of blood. After a while, Feng Lin, who was the fastest, looked around and came back and reported, "There is not a single director of the clan court, and I haven't seen any disciples from other clans, do you want to spread out and look for it carefully?"

sp; "No, everything is unknown at this time, and if we disperse, we will probably not be able to take care of each other, and there are still many seriously injured wounded in the team. Autumn Twilight shook her head, "I'm afraid the worst we expected has already happened, the real target of the enemy is indeed not us clan disciples, just drag us and trap us in the cave, and their goal has been achieved." I just don't know what's going on here in the clan courtyard, we have too little information. ”
"There's a smell of incense in the air. Su Mu sniffed hard, and suddenly said, "It has been diluted a lot by the water vapor of the rainstorm, but I can smell it, this is the strange poisonous dementor incense of the Western Regions." ”
"I've heard of it, it's the kind of powerful potion that instantly loses consciousness after just a few wisps of it, right?" Twilight responded.
"Yes. I've read in the pharmacopoeia before that the main inducing soul flower of the dementor incense itself does not have the efficacy of the psychedel, but refining and calcining it with the wooden core of another psychedelic conjuring wood will give birth to the dementor incense, a poison known as the king of the incense. The drug is strong and effective, and it is colorless, it is difficult to react, as long as it is hit, it can only be dissipated by positive true qi to resist for a short time. ”
"It's masculine true qi again. It seems that those of us who possess the masculine True Qi are really a big problem for the enemy this time. Feng Lin couldn't help but laugh at himself.
Su Mu shook his head and said, "This is only able to resist for a while, the dementor incense is very powerful, it is very easy to spread in the blood, and it cannot be expelled by relying on true qi, and it can only be maintained for a short period of time." ”
"If all the stewards of the clan court have been poisoned, then they should have been imprisoned. Autumn Twilight pondered, turning her head to look at Xiang Fenglin, "I heard the same door as the steward in the clan courtyard mention, there is a very large dungeon under the clan courtyard, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and the people who are imprisoned are some extremely vicious people arrested by the clan monitoring team, have you seen it there?"
"Not yet, but I just looked around and didn't find a way to the dungeon?" Feng Lin was a little confused, his feet were extremely fast, and he had almost searched the entire clan courtyard camp with a stick of incense just now, and he really didn't find where the dungeon was as Qiu Dusk said.
"It's relatively hidden, and it's normal for most people not to know about it. In the deepest part of the main hall is a study room reserved for stewards, which contains the rosters of disciples of each generation of the various clans. There is a secret door in the corner of the study, and the passage to the dungeon will only open if the messenger token of the clan courtyard needs to be inserted into the groove of the secret door. ”
"How do you know so well, as if you've seen it yourself?" Feng Lin was dumbfounded.
"I originally wanted to join the clan courtyard more than to become the next head of the Taiji Sword Sect, so I naturally knew more about these things. Autumn Twilight replied with a smile.
"No, that's too big and too useless, with your talent, how can you be willing to work for the imperial court?
That's why I'm going more. No matter how powerful the Taiji Sword Sect is, it should also be the Taiji Sword Sect of the Tunan Kingdom. The country is the root of the clan, and the development of the Ten Masters Society now is somewhat contrary to the original intention of the Taiji Sword Sect when it was established, and there must be someone who stands up as the link between the Ten Masters Society and the royal family. Autumn Twilight said firmly.
