Chapter Seventy-Seven: Hidden Murder
When night was approaching, Lu Chengfeng and the others hurried to the auspicious gambling house, but there were still people there, but the building was already empty. The gambling house was closed today for no reason, except for the fear of provoking right and wrong, the only possibility was that Li Yunfei had already planned it.
"Don't look any further, I can't deal with you so hard, except for the one surnamed Li, I'm afraid there is no one else!"
Hearing Shangguan Xing'er's words, Lu Chengfeng actually knew it for a long time, but he still decided to go to Zhang's house to have a look.
Zhang's family is located in the streets of Liutai Town, not too far from here, after they rushed there, the entire Zhang family's mansion has already gathered many people, including some people wearing linen and filial piety, the sound of crying is intermittent, from time to time from the mourning hall.
There has always been a rule for the entire cultivation realm, that is, it will not cause trouble to the family. But to be able to uproot this family overnight, the hatred is so deep that it is not shared. No one with the slightest brain would have guessed that the murderer was someone with whom he had a quarrel. But that jade pendant appeared in Zhang's house for no reason, but this persuasiveness was too great.
Lu Chengfeng hid at the base of the wall next to Zhang's house, carefully watching the situation outside the mansion. But in the crowd, he soon discovered the location of the left Zhengguang and the right Daming of the Longkong Gate, and the most surprising thing to him was that Di Qianjun and Jiang Wuhan were also among them, thinking that they were also implicated in Shushan because of this matter, and they were here to find out.
It seems that this matter has become a major event in Liutai Town, and he himself will soon become the target of public criticism. Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Li Yunfei's trick of killing people with a knife was really powerful. But at the moment, the facts are not named, and if you go out rashly, I am afraid that it will be reasonable and unclear at that time.
Moreover, when the second uncle handed over the jade pendant to him that day, everyone in the Shushan faction and Longkong Gate saw it, this jade pendant had a strange shape, and they must have known that the person who appeared in the gambling house that day was themselves. Thinking about it, he grabbed some dirt from the ground, wiped it on his face, and scratched it on his head, and then turned back and went to the street to buy a hat to bring with him.
Fortunately, he was just a nobody in the rivers and lakes, and few people usually noticed him, so after such a disguise, he asked Shangguan Xing'er on the side, "What, they shouldn't recognize me!"
Looking at his beggar-like appearance, Shangguan Xing'er laughed out loud out of place after taking a closer look, "It seems to be ...... It's uglier!"
Now in this situation, where does Lu Chengfeng still care if he is ugly or not, he walked to the Zhang family with her.
Looking from a distance, the dozens of spiritual positions above the spiritual hall were actually oozing blood for no reason, and the blood flowed down the spiritual position, Shangguan Xing'er was shocked when he saw it, and asked, "Why, that spiritual position is bleeding......
The forces of the cultivation realm are mixed, and there will be conflicts from time to time, and for those who die in vain for no reason but take revenge, the person who arranged the funeral will sprinkle blood on their spiritual thrones to show their injustice.
Fortunately, many of these people were people who watched the excitement, and they were all infected by the mourning atmosphere in the mourning hall, and no one noticed their approach.
But I saw that under the spiritual seat, a young man dressed in linen and filial piety was lying on the spiritual platform, his entire back seemed to tremble slightly due to sadness, and from time to time there was an intermittent cry.
I don't think your father's spirit in the sky wants to see you like this!"
Xu saw that the young man was very sad, and Di Qianjun on the side couldn't help but persuade.
It is rumored in Liutai Town that the Zhang family has been wiped out, how can there be a son, and he is also a disciple of the Shushan faction. Lu Chengfeng was puzzled, and immediately thought of Zhang Kun, who fought with him in the back mountain that day, and the person who died was called Zhang Qian. Although this Qiankun is not the other Qiankun, he has doubts about the identity of this person.
"Shimen is unfortunate, I really didn't expect that my Shushan is the head of the righteous path in the world, and there will be such an inhumane beast! If I see Lu Chengfeng, I will definitely break him into ten thousand pieces!"
When Lu Chengfeng saw Zhang Ming say this with an impassioned face, Lu Chengfeng was almost sure that the young man was Zhang Kun. Thinking about it, it is really a narrow road, this person hated him to the bone before, and now he has formed an enmity with him in the heart of this person, which is really worse. It seems that Li Yunfei's framing was obviously well thought out, and he had the intention of making him an enemy of the entire Shushan.
"Ten thousand pieces of corpses...... Broken corpses ......"
These generous words were immediately responded to by those people above the mourning hall, looking at them wearing linen and filial piety, I think they are also relatives of the Zhang family.
"Senior Brother Zhao, before the facts are clarified, it's better not to jump to conclusions!"
Jiang Wuhan's face was already as cold as ice, but her calm defense was still agreed by Di Qianjun, but seeing him, she nodded and said, "I think Senior Brother Lu is loyal and honest, and he will never do a fourth-class cruel thing because of a little dispute." Moreover, the entire Zhang family was killed by a single blow, and the corpse was cold and piercing inside and out, obviously not due to my Shushan exercises, and this alone cannot be concluded that it was done by Senior Brother Lu!"
"That piece of jade pendant, you said that it was something that had been passed down from generation to generation in his Lu family, for such an important thing, how could he easily leave it behind, and it just appeared here! The most important thing is that he had already clashed with Senior Brother Zhang before, and he must be holding a grudge and waiting for an opportunity to take revenge!"
Zhao Ming, as Zhang Kun's friend, was sad in his heart when he saw his whole family die tragically at this moment, and now he attributed the new hatred and old hatred to Lu Chengfeng.
Just when several people were arguing about this matter, the kneeling young man turned around, and it was Zhang Kunqi. I saw that his eyes were red, all the grief and hatred were beyond words, he was holding his father's spiritual position, and said viciously outside the door, "All the Zhang family members present listen, no matter who it is, as long as they see Lu Chengfeng, they will be killed! Please also ask Long Kongmen to uphold justice for my Zhang family!"
When the two of them saw him making such a big gift, they hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, please rest assured, the two of us will definitely find out the facts and give the Zhang family justice!"
Because of the strange things that have happened in these six towns recently, and the cultivators have recently gathered here, those ordinary people are worried that they will be accidentally implicated, so they close their doors after dark. Therefore, when Lu Chengfeng and the others were about to go to Li's house at night to find out, the street was already empty, and it seemed extremely deserted.
The Li family is in the west of Liutai Town, and the previous Zhang family is separated by a long road, and to go to the Li family, you have to pass through a mountain and forest path, walking on the deep path, Lu Chengfeng suddenly felt a yin wind coming from the back, faintly and secretly killing.
"Why is it so cold all of a sudden?"
Shangguan Xing'er also obviously felt this sudden chill, so he shrank back and asked.
The leaves in my ears make a rustling sound under the effect of this gloomy wind, which is especially quiet at night. With the faint moonlight above his head, Lu Chengfeng saw that the dead leaves on the ground were swept up by the wind, and they kept spinning in place, and his heart sank, and he said softly, "Wait a minute, no matter what happens, you just hide behind me!"
As he spoke, a golden light flashed, but the sword was already in his hand.
Although he didn't feel anyone approaching at this moment, after several battles, he already had a clear sense of the so-called murderous aura, and as his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Yuan Infancy, his perception of the aura became more and more acute.
Just when the heartstrings of both of them were a little tense, suddenly a figure flashed in front of them, its speed was so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the gloomy aura left behind was not dissipated for a long time.
This figure flashed and left behind, and Lu Chengfeng faintly felt that something was abnormal, because this extremely cold yin qi reminded him of the duel with the Powerful Ghost Hall in the Netherworld Mountain that day, and this breath was very familiar to him. But the complexity of the matter was beyond his imagination, he thought it would be someone from the Li family, but he didn't expect that even the powerful ghost hall was involved.
But with his current cultivation, he didn't open his eyes to the sky, even if he knew that the other party was nearby, he couldn't see where he was. The opponent is hidden in the shadows, and as long as he does not move, he cannot sense the breath of the opponent, and the enemy in the shadows may launch a sudden attack at any time.
Thinking about it, he stopped his footsteps, the horizontal sword blocked in front of Shangguan Xing'er, and after looking around, he said loudly, "Lu Chengfeng is here, since Your Excellency has the intention to kill me, why hide your head and show your tail, please show up!"
The sound echoed through the empty woods, startling the sleeping birds......
Just as the sound of birdsong passed overhead, a strong wind rushed towards the face with endless might, and then a thunderous laughter came from all around. For a moment, the two of them felt an extremely piercing roar in their ears, as if countless rocks were falling together.
"The lion roars, plug your ears!"
After a shout, Lu Chengfeng didn't have time to think about it, as soon as his mind moved, the pure yang qi was running his whole body at an extremely fast speed, and bursts of blue light like sea water were instantly covered around the two of them, and as the blue light gradually increased, the laughter in his ears was immediately much smaller.
In the darkness, I saw countless half-moon-shaped golden lights coming from all around that immediately turned into incorporeal when they approached, and with the fainting of the golden lights, the surrounding areas suddenly began to blow violently, the leaves were shaken to a rattle, and some small trees were broken in an instant.
Lu Chengfeng has learned a lesson since he was injured by the other party's wild lion roar last time. At this moment, the other party's old technique was repeated, and he directly used the second level of pure yang qi. Since ancient times, water and fire have been incompatible, but once water and fire meet, what really plays a decisive role is their own cultivation.
The cultivation in the late Yuan Infant period was already medium in the entire cultivation realm, and it was actually not difficult to confront the opponent's roar of the wild lion in a short period of time.
