Chapter 11: Disputes
The haze caused by Li Sanqi's death turned into panic the next day, because a second deceased appeared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was Pan Jun who died this time.
Like Li Sanqi, when Pan Jun was discovered, he also became a dried corpse. The essence blood of the whole body was sucked dry, and only a layer of skin on the outside wrapped around the bone frame, which looked extremely hideous.
Zhou Fanghe's face was gloomy, his expression was a little hideous, if it was just one Li Sanqi who died, he could completely excuse it as an accident, but two dead people in a row were almost exactly the same way of dying, which could no longer be explained by accidents anyway.
What's even more troublesome is that the two people who died are the children of the six major factions in Hedong, or belong to the elite of key training, and the six major factions invited him to preside over the overall situation, so he naturally had the intention of entrusting him to take care of his family, and now two people have died in a row, and he is the one in charge, no matter what the final result is, it is difficult to escape the blame.
"How's it going, old man?"
Guan Hu stood up and frowned: "It's exactly the same, even the wound is the same." ”
"What about the night watchman, who didn't notice any movement?"
The last vigil was the three monks of the Thousand Buddha Temple, one by one, looking at each other, and after a while, one of the monks named Zhiming recited a Buddha name: "Amitabha, our senior brothers have never closed their eyes, and indeed they have not found any movement." I don't know what happened to Master Pan. ”
The forest was silent, and everyone's hearts were shrouded in a sense of panic, this unknown danger was the most terrifying.
"Bury the people," After being silent for a long time, Zhou Fanghe finally spoke: "After processing, clean up, have breakfast and move on." ”
"Why don't you go back?" Xie Youde couldn't stand it: "There are already two people dead, and if you go further, who knows what danger there is?"
"Go back, where are you going?" Zhou Fanghe sneered: "Apart from Shi Sheng, who else can pass through the peach blossom miasma? We are now clearly targeted, as long as we are still in this cloud and mist, what does it make if we are there? If we continue like this, we will simply go all the way to the dark, maybe there will be a turning point." ”
The others did not speak, apparently acquiescing to Zhou Fanghe's opinion. Everyone came from afar, and it was not easy to get to the present, and no one wanted to give up easily. Xie Youde saw that no one agreed with his opinion, and he didn't dare to leave the group, so he had to give in.
The deeper you go, the thicker the fog becomes, and the whole world seems to be covered with a white veil. Everyone is huddled together, and no one dares to leave the group easily. Although these people all possess inhuman powers, they are still far from the real immortals, and no one dares to act arbitrarily in the face of the threat of death hidden in the unknown fog.
There was almost no one to speak along the way, and the atmosphere of the team was very heavy, except for Zhou Fanghe's occasional words to adjust the atmosphere, there was only heavy footsteps. Everyone was holding their breath, lucky, and ready to do it at any time.
However, it turned out that their worries along the way were in vain, and the expected danger did not come until dark. Just like yesterday, they had a safe journey and did not encounter any crisis. The Grim Reaper, hidden in the shadows, seems to have made up his mind to do it at night.
Shi Sheng's familiarity with the marshland was amazing, he always managed the distance accurately, finding the right habitat before dark, and as in the previous days, he seemed to have a preference for the valleys between the hills, and each time he chose a place with similar terrain: mountains, water, and woods.
Everyone cleaned up the camp and sat around to enjoy today's dinner. After a busy day, the original panic subsided slightly, and the atmosphere in the camp gradually became relaxed, and there began to be some cheerful laughter.
"Everyone rest early," Zhou Fanghe's face also looked a little better after arranging the personnel for tonight's vigil, and instructed: "The people who keep vigil tonight must cheer up, and the others themselves must be careful, no matter what, no accident can happen again." ”
Qiu Zhe was assigned to the last vigil tonight, but he had always meditated instead of sleeping, so it didn't matter. In the early hours of the morning, he counted the number of people and found that there were two missing, and his heart jumped, and he was about to wake up Zhou Fanghe, but suddenly heard someone talking in the woods.
"Did you do it?" This is Jiang Binghong's voice, which is one of the two people missing.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" the other person spoke, and Qiu Zhe's heart was relieved, and he heard that it was Xiao Suddenly speaking, and it was the other person who was missing. Curiosity suddenly rose in his heart, why did these two people get up and say these strange things without sleeping so late?
"Don't hide it from me," Jiang Binghong's tone was full of disdain: "At the beginning, Li Sanqi had an accident, and I wasn't sure, but now that Pan Jun is also dead, this generation is qualified to compete for Kunwudan, and only you and me are left." You're still saying you didn't do it?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao suddenly had anger in his voice, and he was afraid of waking up others, so he tried his best to suppress his emotions: "You actually doubt me? Sanqi is my cousin, and Pan Jun and I have known each other since childhood, how could I attack them?"
"Hmph, for the sake of Kun Wu Dan, what can't you do? That's the real Immortal Family Elixir, not those big road goods on the market. The six major factions gathered so many manpower and material resources, and it took decades of hard work to refine a furnace. It took ten years to release one, let alone you, I can't even believe myself. ”
"Don't spew blood without proof. ”
"What kind of evidence do you want, everyone is innocent and innocent, except for you, who else will have this motive? Besides, with the ability of Li Sanqi and Pan Jun, the people who can kill them are you, me and the three masters of the Wuxiang Sect. I know I didn't do it, so you can't say that the three masters did it, right?"
"Maybe it's some kind of monster in this cloud?"
"What kind of monster would be so patient, following us all the way, and just waiting for the night to do it? Don't think I don't know, in addition to the inheritance of Taoism, you Su Wenzhai also secretly studied the Gu art of Southern Xinjiang. Last year, you arrested people everywhere just to raise that Qingwang God, right? Did you bring it this time? Isn't the death of Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Pan a sign of the Qingwang God's bite?"
"You are talking nonsense," Xiao was shocked and angry, and his heart was even more vigilant, they had always asked about the matter of raising Gu worms, which was a secret in the faction, how could Jiang Binghong know about it, could it be that there was an internal ghost? But this is not the time to think about this, in front of people, he naturally denied it: "Jiang Binghong, our six major factions are in the same spirit, Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Pan have an accident, everyone is very sad." But if you speak disrespectfully again, don't blame me for not thinking about the friendship of the teacher, and I have to discipline the disciples for Uncle Gao. ”
The Uncle Gao in Xiao Ranran's mouth is Gao Junwang of the Firmament Sect, and he is Jiang Binghong's master. The six major factions are good friends with each other, and they are commensurate with each other, Jiang Binghong and Xiao Ranran are of the same generation, and his master, Xiao Ranran, naturally wants to call him uncle.
"Okay," Jiang Binghong said viciously: "You have long wanted to do it, as soon as Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Pan die, kill me again, no one will be able to rob you of the Kunwu Divine Pill, it is really a good calculation!"
