Chapter 143: Internal and External Troubles

"In my opinion, the other party's move is obviously to put Chief Qiao to death, it seems that this person must have some deep hatred with Wan Gu Sect. Moreover, this person is haunted, and the level of cultivation is very comparable, it seems that he is definitely not a person in the door, it must be someone from Longkong Gate who has secretly come here!"

Qu Leiyang's words caused a commotion in the hall, if what he said was true, then the entire Ten Thousand Gu Sect could be in a catastrophe at any time. You must know that in addition to the intra-clan dispute, this is the first time that Wan Gumen has fought against the Central Plains forces.

But when he took out an object from his waist, everyone was puzzled, and Lu Chengfeng explained, "This thing was torn off by me chasing this person!"

After Qiao Meijiao took it and looked at it, she found that this thing was a fragment of a piece of clothing, and there was nothing special about it, and there were many people wearing such clothes in the entire Miao tribe, so it was not easy to find out where it was. It's just that the only thing that is certain is that the material of this dress seems to be absolutely only for people within the Ten Thousand Gu Sect.

In order to resist the cold, all the clothes worn by Wan Gu Men are derived from a tree called Cicada Mulberry, whose leaves are green all year round and have a degree of elastic veins, which is a rare and high-quality product after being made into silk. Moreover, this kind of silk is only found on a mountain in the Ten Thousand Gu Gate, and it is impossible for other places to have such things. At that time, if he was an ordinary person, I am afraid that it would be impossible to tear the other party's clothes.

Lu Chengfeng then added, "Since the other party can only secretly attack, it can be seen that the other party's cultivation must be under the chief. Moreover, this Mu Chunshan has not seen any change for a long time, and now it is suddenly like this, it seems that someone must have done it deliberately, and this move is intentionally trying to lure the enemy deep in order to take advantage of the opportunity to fall into the well! For today's plan, it is not the danger of Mu Chunshan, I am afraid that we must also find out the traitor, otherwise we will not be able to prevent it!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded again and again after thinking about it. This is exactly the reason why the so-called outside must first be inside, and even the high priest, who has been silent, has a little soothing on his face at the moment.

"And who is this mole?"

Just when Qiao Meijiao asked this, she looked up and saw that Lu Chengfeng was shaking his head at her, so she stopped making a sound.

Throughout the entire Ten Thousand Gu Gate, such a big thing had happened, except for Chang Jinlu in the corpse breeding ground and some people who stayed behind, almost all of them had gathered here. Chang Jinlu had always dealt with corpses, and had rarely been involved in the affairs of the door, and only came in person when summoned by the chief. Most importantly, raising a corpse is a matter that requires extreme patience and should never be disturbed. The art of raising corpses is a secret technique that has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has always been passed on to men and not women, and the Chang family has raised corpses for generations, and has always been loyal to Wan Gumen, and it is impossible for them to be traitors.

However, since this traitor has been able to hide in the Ten Thousand Gu Sect for so long, he is not an ordinary person, and it may be impossible to guess for a while. Looking at the incomplete corpses lying in front of the door, Qiao Meijiao was a little angry for a while. After hesitating for a long time, she ordered her subordinates to bury the dead people, and took out the goods from the treasury to support their families.

In addition, the most worrying thing is probably Mu Chunshan. If the crisis is not resolved one day, then the entire Ten Thousand Gu Gate may be killed at any time, which is tantamount to a sharp knife across the neck. Today's Wan Gu Sect can be described as internal and external troubles, as the chief, Qiao Meijiao is helpless in the face of such a crisis, but she is also frowning for a while.

Seeing this, Qu Leiyang said, "Although I am not a person in the sect, Mengmiao is also related to your faction, so leave the matter of investigating the traitor to me!"

His ingenuity and ingenuity are well-known throughout the Miao people, and at the age of five, he wrote poems and essays, and at the age of seven, he helped his father to see through the enemy's tricks many times in the Miao infighting, and saved the entire Miao family from danger. Although he was willing to help now, Qiao Meijiao still had no expression on her face, as if she was in deep thought.

The High Priest then whispered in her ear, "Now that the calamity is present, you must not be rash!"

After a while, Qiao Meijiao sighed lightly and nodded silently.

The investigation of the traitor has been dealt with more appropriately for the time being, but the matter of Mu Chunshan can be said to have made the entire Wan Gu Sect panic. After the previous battle, everyone was already afraid of Mu Chunshan, even the chief was not an opponent, and the others were afraid that they would be sent to death if they went. However, if this crisis is not eliminated for a day, the Ten Thousand Gu Gate will not be at peace for a day, which is also an urgent matter and must be resolved. Just to think about it, anyone facing death has an instinctive fear.

Seeing that everyone in the hall was silent, the high priest spoke, "Now that this sect is facing an unprecedented crisis, for the sake of the overall situation, I am afraid that a person with the ability to solve the danger of Muchun Mountain will be selected!"

But this candidate has become a problem, and everyone's last eyes are focused on Lu Chengfeng. When dealing with the monsters in the mountain before, Lu Chengfeng's cultivation and calmness impressed everyone present, but it was a pity that he was not from his own sect, so it was impossible to leave this matter to him. Lu Chengfeng himself realized this and never spoke, and what he did before was forced to be helpless.

After about a cup of tea, the high priest slowly walked down the hall and said with a smile, "Looking at my entire Ten Thousand Gu Sect, I'm afraid that the only one who can take on this important task right now is this young man in front of me!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Zhang Jiu objected, "No, Lu Shaoxia is not a person from this sect, and the rules set by the old chief must not be broken! Besides, Lu Shaoxia has come to the rescue many times, how can outsiders risk our lives for the affairs within this sect?

Zhang Jiu's words were nodded and agreed by everyone in the hall, but the high priest seemed to have expected that someone would object, and immediately said, "The words are good, but isn't it equivalent to sending you to death? Can your cultivation be comparable to that of the chief? The rules set by the ancestors naturally cannot be broken, but at the moment of great difficulty, if Lu Shaoxia is willing to worship my Ten Thousand Gu Sect......"

Before she finished her words, Shangguan Xing'er got up and replied, "Everyone knows how dangerous Mu Chunshan is, what is your intention in doing this?"

However, Lu Chengfeng said softly, "Receiving favors from others should be reciprocated, and there is no need to worship the Ten Thousand Gu Gate, but I can try to help you solve the danger of Mu Chun Mountain, provided that I get your consent!"

"Don't promise them, they're going to kill you......"

Lu Chengfeng was a little unimpressed by Shangguan Xing'er's worries, and just smiled, "Don't worry!

The current situation is critical and there is no room to think about it, after everyone looked at each other, Qiao Meijiao said softly, "The investigation of the traitor will be handed over to the high priest and Young Master Qu, and I will go to Muchun Mountain with Lu Shaoxia!"

Hearing that she wanted to risk her life together, the high priest was busy persuading her, but unfortunately Qiao Meijiao seemed to have made up her mind, and waved her hand again and again, "Now that many people have died, how can I, as a chief, live in the rear in peace? I am the chief, please don't persuade the high priest anymore!"

After making a decision, the people did not care about resting, and the soldiers were divided into two ways. One way stayed at the Qingfeng Temple to investigate the traitor in the sect, and the other followed Lu Chengfeng and others to Muchun Mountain. Before leaving, Qiao Meijiao repeatedly told her subordinates to take care of Lu Chengfeng's family and not to be lazy. This point made Lu Chengfeng quite moved, it was already a lot of anxiety for Wan Gumen to face such a crisis, but Qiao Meijiao could still remember to send someone to take care of his family, which was already very commendable. It seems that this fierce woman on the surface is not bad-hearted.

Without saying anything all the way, the group soon returned to Muchun Mountain, but everyone had already seen the danger here, and now that the starry night was here, the moon was dark and the wind was high, which made this already dangerous place a little ghostly.

There is a high mountain far away from Muchun, and for the sake of safety, Lu Chengfeng led everyone to retreat to this mountain. Being on high ground, with a wide field of vision, can react at any time if there is any wind or grass. In addition, due to the distance from Muchun Mountain, everyone will not be in any danger for the time being.

With the efforts of everyone, simple wooden houses were soon built on the mountain. It's simple, but it's more than enough for people to rest.

After the previous fierce battle, everyone was already in a trance in tension and fear, and as soon as they lay down, they began to feel a little drowsy. But Lu Chengfeng's eyes were kept open, Shangguan Xing'er followed his gaze and saw him staring at the stone tablet and asked, "You also looked at that stone tablet before, what is wrong with that?"

Lu Chengfeng shook his head and said, "I can't say it, I just don't think it's normal anyway!"

In the dim moonlight, there was still no abnormality around Mu Chunshan, and many people began to feel a little drowsy. However, Qiao Meijiao saw Lu Chengfeng's intimate appearance with Shangguan Xing'er, but she frowned and turned her face away, but soon she turned around again, and after tossing and turning like this, in the end, she had no choice but to look up at the night sky in a daze.

This detail was seen by Shangguan Xing'er, and she smiled and asked softly, "What do you think of this chieftain surnamed Qiao?"

Lu Chengfeng didn't notice her careful thinking about asking this, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's not bad!"

"What about how she compares to me?"

Lu Chengfeng seemed to suddenly understand what she meant, and pretended to be serious, "You! willful, like to make trouble unreasonably, and you may be close to others!"

As soon as these words came out, Shangguan Xing'er frowned, and twisted his arm hard. Since it was late at night, many people began to feel drowsy, and Lu Chengfeng didn't dare to scream loudly even if he was in pain, so he had to beg for mercy again and again, "I was wrong, you'd better ...... You'd better ......."

At this moment, Lu Chengfeng's mind moved, and he faintly felt a murderous aura. He subconsciously looked at Mu Chunshan, but saw a black shadow flashing at an extremely fast speed, and it had disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
