Chapter 176: The Real Murderer
Before I knew it, three days had passed.
Five fast horses stopped abruptly in front of Chaotianque, and Yan Shan, Liu Ruobai, Dugufeng, Meng Tian and Shi Potian turned over and dismounted.
A man in gray hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Back to the sect master, last night, nine black-clothed people quietly left the Shangqing Taiping Palace and headed east. In order to avoid unintended complications, Hall Master Li personally went to track down. ”
Yan Shan nodded slightly, then looked at Liu Ruobai, Dugu Feng, Meng Tian and Shi Potian, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the Taiping Palace of the Qing Dynasty first." ”
Liu Ruobai said loudly: "Serious matters matter. ”
As soon as the words fell, the five of them turned over their horses, turned their horses' heads, and went straight to the Taiping Palace of the Qing Dynasty.
After a short time, the five people came to the main hall of the Taiping Palace in the Shangqing Dynasty.
Yan Shan said loudly: "Mu Dai is in charge, Yan Shan has something to see!"
After a while, an old man dressed in a moon-white robe and immortal wind bones slowly came to the outside of the hall, saluted slightly, and said softly, "I don't know what Sect Master Yan is doing here?"
This person is Mu Qingfeng, the eldest disciple of the late head of the Taiping Palace of the Shangqing Dynasty, Li Ruoyu.
Yan Shan clenched his fists slightly, and said, "Daoist Mu, can you take a step to speak?"
Mu Qingfeng nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Five young heroes, please come with me." ”
The group bypassed the main hall and came to a wing room in the backyard.
Mu Qingfeng raised his right hand lightly and said casually: "Five young heroes, please take a seat!"
"Dao Chief, please!"
Six people are seated as guests and hosts.
Yan Shan then asked, "Daoist Mu, why don't you see Mu Dai in charge?"
Mu Qingfeng frowned slightly, as if there was something unspeakable.
Yan Shan realized something, and asked casually: "Could it be that Mu Dai has left the sect without saying goodbye?"
Mu Qingfeng sighed lightly and said slowly: "Last night, Senior Brother Mu and the eight disciples under the seat left quietly, leaving no trace. ”
Yan Shan groaned: "Do you know why Mu Dai left suddenly?"
Mu Qingfeng said lightly: "Maybe it's a letter, maybe it's the death of the teacher." ”
There is a lot of meaning in the words.
Yan Shan clenched his fists slightly, and said loudly: "I still hope that Daoist Mu will tell me frankly!"
Mu Qingfeng took a deep breath and sighed lightly: "The death of the teacher is clear at a glance. Poisoning, raiding, only those who are absolutely trusted by the teacher can do it. Even so, if it weren't for the teacher's intention to shelter him, the attacker would never have escaped with his whole body. In addition, the teacher's diet and daily life are all taken care of by the disciples who sit down with Senior Brother Mu. With these two points alone, the murderer has been revealed. ”
Hearing this, Yan Shan's face turned gloomy, and he said coldly: "Why didn't Daoist Mu tell him frankly that day?"
Mu Qingfeng sighed lightly, his face showed helplessness, and he muttered, "Sect Master Yan really doesn't understand the reason?"
Yan Shan said angrily: "Yan Shan is ignorant, please also ask Daoist Mu for advice!"
Mu Qingfeng said slowly: "If the poor Dao is not bad, when Sect Master Yan saw his master, his master had not yet gone immortal. ”
Yan Shan said without hesitation: "That's true. ”
Mu Qingfeng said: "Dare to ask Sect Master Yan, does the teacher have any last words?"
Yan Shan replied, "Yes." ”
Mu Qingfeng asked, "What did the teacher say?"
As soon as I thought of this, I couldn't help but tears burst out of my eyes. Yan Shan's eyes closed slightly, and he said slowly: "Seeing that Xiaoyou is safe and sound, the old man is relieved." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly realized.
Mu Qingfeng was sad, there were faint tears flashing in his eyes, and he sighed lightly: "The master's fate is difficult to disobey, what can the poor Dao do?"
Yan Shan gave Mu Qingfeng a deep salute and said in a deep voice: "Yan Shan is offended, please ask Mu Dao Chang for forgiveness!"
Mu Qingfeng nodded slightly and was silent.
In this situation, Liu Ruobai, Dugufeng, Meng Tian and Shi Potian couldn't help but feel sad.
Yan Shan wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and said in a deep voice: "Daoist Mu, what's the matter with a letter?"
Mu Qingfeng said lightly: "Senior Brother Mu received a letter yesterday and left at night. ”
Yan Shan asked, "Does Daoist Mu know the contents of the letter?"
Mu Qingfeng shook his head slightly and was silent.
Yan Shan clenched his fists slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you Daoist Mu for telling me frankly, don't say goodbye, there will be a period later!"
Liu Ruobai, Dugufeng, Meng Tian and Shi Potian also saluted Mu Qingfeng.
Mu Qingfeng returned the salute slightly.
Outside the wing, Yan Shan suddenly stopped, did not look back, and said in a deep voice: "Yan Shan will definitely be Mu Tianlin." As soon as the words fell, he departed.
A moment later, the five figures disappeared around the corner.
Mu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and tears suddenly gushed out.
