Chapter 68: Two Birds with One Stone
Xuantian Peak is the main peak of the Xuanyang Sect, and the peaks are towering and embedded in the clouds, echoing in symphony with the rest of the peaks. There is a big hall on the main peak called Taiji Palace, and the decoration is extremely simple and simple.
In the middle of the gate of the Taiji Hall is the pattern of the vice yin and yang double fish, which occupies the entire door panel.
Wang Yang slowly came to the door of the Taiji Palace, arched his hand and said in a low voice: "Disciple Wang Yang has something important to tell the master, I don't know if he can enter the Taiji Palace." ”
"Crunch!"
The door of the Taiji Hall opened, and a person walked out of it, this person was Mo Xibai, the head of the sect, and he smiled at Wang Yang and said: "Master Wang came just in time, and the head of the sect has just been born and died. ”
"Thank you. Wang Yang arched his hand, walked towards the hall, and waved his hand to the back: "You two should come in together!"
Lian Yi and Qi Yuanyao were full of resentment and reluctantly followed in.
Wang Yang moved to the lobby of the Taiji Palace, but there was no trace of the master, so he looked at Mo Xibai, Mo Xibai pointed to the side hall, Wang Yang understood the meaning, and moved to the side hall.
Before the person reached the side hall, he smelled a faint smell of ambergris, which emanated from a bronze incense burner.
Looking for ambergris, it turned out that this incense slowly drifted out from behind the bamboo curtain in the side hall, and there was a person sitting behind the bamboo curtain, this person was Shangguan Haoqiong, the head of the Xuanyang Sect, and he seemed to be still meditating.
Wang Yang bent down at the bamboo curtain and arched his hand: "Disciple Wang Yang visited the master, and he came to bother him today for a trivial matter, and I hope the head of the house will not mind." ”
"Tell me! Shangguan Haoqiong's tone behind the bamboo curtain was very gentle and flat.
Wang Yang smiled slightly and said, "Master Xie, when the disciple passed by the back mountain today, he saw Lian Xing and Qi Yuanyao sneakily walking out of the back mountain.
Houshan is the forbidden place of the sect, and everyone in the sect knows about it. When the disciple stopped the two, Lian Xing relied on the power of the Great Elder, and was very arrogant and domineering, and did not take the rules of the sect seriously at all. ”
Shangguan Haoqiong behind the bamboo curtain didn't react much, but just said lightly: "You should go to the criminal officer Red Lotus for this matter." ”
Wang Yang hurriedly replied: "If it is such a trivial matter, the disciple will definitely not disturb the head of the Qing Cultivation.
The day before yesterday, the disciple of Senior Wan had just been framed by Lian Xing and the others, and his cultivation in the late stage of Qi Gathering was abolished. Today, the disciple happened to meet Lian Xing and Qi Yuanyao sneakily out of the back mountain at the entrance of the back mountain.
The location of the back mountain is remote and few people go to it, and it only shares an entry and exit road with Tianwu Peak, and does not take this road when entering other peaks.
Lian Xing and the others appeared here at this time, presumably they would not do anything good, and they hoped that the head of the family would send someone to investigate, so as not to follow the tragedy six years ago. ”
"Well, Lord Wang is right, this must not happen. Shangguan Haoqiong's tone was extremely heavy, and he said outside the bamboo curtain: "Xibai, you go to the back mountain quickly and see if your uncle's disciple is okay." ”
Mo Xibai arched his hand and replied: "Okay master, the disciple will leave now." Then his figure flashed and disappeared into the side hall.
Shangguan Haoqiong immediately stood up, lifted the bamboo curtain with one hand and walked out slowly, only to see that he was dressed in a Taiji Xiangyun robe, wearing coarse cloth boots, and gently sat on the wooden chair on the side, and his arms were in a posture of invitation.
"Sit down and talk! Master Wang, Xi Bai has just made a high-grade sparrow tongue, you can have a cup too!"
Wang Yang did not postpone it, sat on the wooden chair on the left side of the head, picked up the thin porcelain bowl, opened the lid on it and sniffed it carefully, a faint fragrance entered his heart, making him feel refreshed physically and mentally.
"I haven't seen my senior brother for a long time, and I don't know when he accepted the disciple. Shangguan Haoqiong took a sip of tea, staring ahead, as if he was talking to himself, and some seemed to be asking others.
Wang Yang hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and replied: "It should be the end of last year, this disciple's name is Qin Yun, he is talented, and he has reached the late stage of gathering qi within a year of entering the sect, but"
Shangguan Haoqiong looked at Wang Yang suspiciously, and asked, "But what is it?"
"That Qin Yun's cultivation had just arrived in the late stage of gathering qi, and he was framed by Lian Xing and abolished his cultivation, when Senior Wan almost went crazy, Xin Haoxibai appeared to resolve this crisis. ”
As soon as Wang Yang's words fell, when he picked up the teacup and was about to drink tea, he saw a white shadow flashing, and Mo Xibai arrived in the side hall.
Mo Xibai arched his hand and said: "Master, the disciple has just made a careful investigation in the back mountain, and he has not found any trace of anyone, only a wisp of rags on the side of the cliff. ”
"Isn't your master Wan Youchuan in the back mountain?"
"Well, Uncle Shi, his old man is not in the back mountain. ”
Shangguan Haoqiong picked up the tea bowl and took a sip slowly, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "Xibai, you go and call Lian Xing and Qi Yuanyao, I have something to ask!"
"Okay!" Mo Xibai turned around and walked towards the lobby.
Seeing this, Wang Yang immediately pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "Master, will the disciples of Senior Wan have been pushed off the cliff, it seems that I am still a step too late." ”
After Shangguan Haoqiong heard this, his face became solemn, and he raised his eyes to look forward, but saw Lian Xing walking in slowly, and Qi Yuanyao also followed.
After Lian Xing saw Shangguan Haoqiong, he was stunned at first, and after being pulled by Qi Yuanyao, the two of them bent down at the same time and arched their hands: "I've seen the master." ”
Shangguan Haoqiong nodded, and said: "Call the two of you to come, you should know what the so-called matter is, you only need to explain the facts clearly, if there is the slightest concealment, then go and pay for Qin Yun's life! Even if Lian Yi is called, it is endless." ”
After hearing this, Lian Xing's face turned a little pale, and he hurriedly said: "Master, the two of us only ventured to the back mountain for the treasures on Qin Yun's body, but after the two of us went, we didn't see anyone's trace, and then when the two of us left, we met Master Wang." ”
Shangguan Haoqiong's eyes looked Lian Xing up and down, and asked tentatively, "That's all! Didn't you push Qin Yun off the cliff?"
Lian Xing immediately knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "What the disciple said is true, if there is the slightest concealment, he will keep the curse of heaven." ”
Shangguan Haoqiong looked at Lian Xing's expression, and felt that he didn't seem to be lying, and was just about to open his mouth to ask again, when he heard a hurried footsteps outside the door.
The man who came was a man in a leopard helmet armor, who seemed to be familiar with the place, and when he saw that there was no one in the lobby, he ran straight to the side hall.
As soon as this person arrived at the door of the side hall, he shouted breathlessly: "Shangguan Immortal Master's big thing is not good, Shangguan Immortal Master's big thing is not good." ”
Shangguan Haoqiong frowned, stared at the person who came, and said, "General Han, what's the alarm." ”
General Na Han was extremely embarrassed at this time, and the armor scales on his body also fell off a lot, slumped on the wooden chair, and shouted to Mo Xibai: "Water, give me water." ”
Mo Xibai immediately handed over the kettle placed on the side, and the general surnamed Han raised the kettle, drank it cleanly, and then wiped his lips with his arm and said, "I'm dying of thirst." ”
