Chapter Eighty-Four: Peeling Back the Thread
Lu Dian was dressed in a torn jacket and a big hat on his head, eager to cover half of his face. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he stood outside the gate of the Baishui County Mansion and hesitated. The huge city wall cast a huge shadow, and the shadow enveloped Lu Dian, and Lu Dian lowered his head more and more to make it impossible to see his face clearly.
He silently walked through the doorway and down the cold street. In the winter of Baishui County Government, people seem to be hiding, and there are few people on the streets in the early morning. Lu Dian went all the way, and no one doubted his origins, and even regarded him as a vagabond.
Baishui Academy was in front, and Lu Dian pulled his velvet hat to cover his face more tightly. He knew his trip was dangerous, but he had to verify it himself. The mystery of the headless corpse may be solved here. Lu Dian pressed his body and burrowed into the Baishui Academy. He deliberately avoided places where the students might gather, and even went around from the Kindergarten Academy, because there were often newcomers enrolled there, and even if someone found out about entering the Qionglin Academy, there would not be too much suspicion.
Lu Dian had a safe journey, and when he passed through the Wen Garden, he deliberately looked in the direction of Long Qianyu's residence. The impression that Gu Yuntian's words left on Lu Dian before his death still could not erase Long Qianyu's position in Lu Dian's heart. He knew that Long Qianyu must know some inside information, and even came into contact with the things behind this net, but after all, she represented a family of cultivators, and it was impossible for her natural concerns to accompany her to go crazy. So, this path must be taken on its own.
What you see is not necessarily true, what you hear is not necessarily true, but time does not wait.
Lu Dian remembered this sentence tightly, and didn't know if he was ahead of time this time. He hurriedly walked through the Wenyuan to the place where he was most familiar with the painting garden. He didn't go to his room because he knew there was nothing in it. He cautiously came to Lin Ruoxi's courtyard, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that the thin madman in the snow was still in Zama. Lu Dian shook his right hand, and the broken blade appeared in his hand. He tightened the broken blade in his hand, and suddenly picked up the exercise and slashed at the madman.
The madman didn't seem to see Lu Dian and just stood stunned.
It's close! It's close! Lu Dian could feel the sound of his breathing accelerating. Crazy don't blame me for not being able to live up to you, you had the intention of killing me at the beginning, but now it's just karma. This knife is as fast as lightning, but in Lu Dian's heart, it feels like half a century has passed.
However, this knife did not split the madman into two as Lu Dian expected. A golden sword qi cut everything off, and Lu Dian looked sideways at Lin Ruoxi, who was standing in front of the door, and said lightly: "Sister Ruoxi, I want to know why?"
Lin Ruoxi looked at Lu Dian calmly and said, "I want to ask what you plan to do?"
"Do you know Lin Mengru?" Lu Dian said bluntly.
"I don't know. ”
"Then does Lin Shuyu know her?"
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment and said lightly: "Adian, this is not a question you should ask. ”
"Then what question should I ask?Sister Ruoxi, what question should you tell me?" Lu Dian's eyes began to turn red. His anger burned in his heart, because he had got the answer he wanted, but the answer he didn't want to believe.
"All I can tell you is that every step you take now is wrong, and because of your mistakes, there are many more people who will be in danger. Do you want to keep going?" Lin Ruoxi seemed to tear off his face, and everything he said revealed the tone of an insider.
Lu Dian slowly closed his eyes and said lightly: "I have been focusing all my eyes on the headless corpse, because I was too focused on a very important issue, that is, accidents, this series of things is really too many accidents. The headless corpse appeared inside Qimen, and it was obviously a secret thing, why did it happen at the most lively time in Qimen? When an ambush was encountered outside Qimen, the ambusher could have killed people but did not kill them? The villagers of Jielongshan Village were killed even though they knew nothing, and what secrets did a group of mortals have to die? I have always wondered about these questions, but just now I understood. ”
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly.
"What do you understand?"
"I understood one thing. As Lu Dian spoke, he suddenly made a move, and with a broken blade, he saw a flash of cold light, and the madman in front of him half a step was in a different place in an instant. Where the skull rolled down, all he could do was stunned. The face quickly withered, and a baby triangular toad lay on its face and died with a strange scream. The corpse also decomposed quickly, revealing a familiar smell of Lu Dian, and it was this smell that made this extremely tight bureau exposed. "It's all illusions!"
Lin Ruoxi was still smiling, but her face became a little paler and she looked even weaker.
"Yes, I didn't go to the lifeless secret realm in vain. Lin Ruoxi said.
"I'd rather I hadn't been to the Lifeless Realm. I thought that kind of monster couldn't leave the Lifeless Secret Realm, but that's obviously not the case. Sister Ruoxi, can you tell me why?"
"You already have the answer in your mind, why do you ask me. ”
"I just want to know why I killed Lin Mengru. There was no reason why she had to die. Lu Dian said hatefully.
"She doesn't have a reason to live, does she? Back then, Gu Yuntian, Lin Mengru, Long Qianyu and Qi Yun entered the Lifeless Secret Realm at the same time, but only three people came out, and she was the one who was abandoned. After sixteen years, she was able to return to the world because of her misfortune in the secret realm of lifelessness, for revenge and debt collection. But Qimen has been destroyed, the Lin family has died, all her grievances and hatreds have been buried in the soil, and there is no meaning to live for her. ”
"So you killed her. Lu Dian said coldly.
Lin Ruoxi groaned for a while: "I didn't kill her, but knocked you out." ”
"You ......" Lu Dian didn't expect Lin Ruoxi to be so bold and directly admit what stunned him. The reason why he ended up like this now was because of that blow, which put him in an unprecedented crisis, and then lost the way to get information from Lin Mengru.
"I'm saving you. ”
"But how do you make me believe it? How can you make me believe you! The appearance of the headless corpse of Qimen is obviously the first step for you to frame Qimen, and even if you have already polluted Qimen, this step is just a necessary condition for the destruction of Qimen. Mountain Road interception, you used the golden sword qi step by step to force me and Long Qianyu into the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave just to reveal this secret through my mouth, this is the second step. ”
"Why did I force you into the Ten Thousand Ghost Caves instead of Long Qianyu taking you in?" Lin Ruoxi said lightly.
Lu Dian chuckled in his heart, this possibility was something that Lu Dian didn't want to admit, he always avoided thinking in this direction that he wanted to get Long Qianyu out of this conspiracy, but it seemed unlikely. It was the academy she let herself into, the Qimen that she led her to, or the one she took herself out of the Ten Thousand Ghost Caves. Lu Dian trembled in his heart and gritted his teeth and said: "The third step, get rid of all the villagers who have seen the bad tire, and the Solitaire Pass should be the exit of the bad tire." And Lin Shuyu and I are chess pieces that have strayed into it, and everything that is inconvenient for the bad baby to act is done by me and Lin Shuyu. Am I right? Sister Ruoxi of the Yunyin Holy Sect, please answer me!"
