Chapter 152: Zhu Family Incidents
There were four Sword Casting City disciples in the room, two in the late stage of foundation building, and two in the middle stage of foundation building.
"Senior Brother Yan, who did you say was that person just now? Why are you so familiar with our Zhu family compound?" one of the mid-foundation building monks asked a late foundation building monk.
"Silence! Now hurry up and check what is missing, don't talk about the rest!" Senior Brother Yan said with a serious face.
"Yes, brother!" the questioning monk hurriedly continued to check. Suddenly, I noticed someone beside me, and when I looked up, I saw a strange man appear in the room. The monk was stunned for a moment, and shouted, "Who are you? How did you get in?" The other three listened to this person's words and looked at them together, and sure enough, there was one more person in the room, and they were all stunned.
Liu Chang opened his mouth and spit out a small black sword when the four of them were stunned, and the small sword split into two at the moment it flew out, directly stabbing the bodies of the two late-stage foundation building monks, and the bodies of the two immediately turned into two black ice cubes, and they fell to the ground and fell into pieces with a bang. At the same time, Liu Chang's two hands radiated spiritual power, transformed into two big hands, and detained the two mid-foundation building monks to his side.
The two mid-foundation building monks were already speechless by Liu Chang's methods, it was obvious that this person was the Jindan Ancestor!
"Seniors spare their lives! seniors spare their lives!" Before Liu Chang could ask, one of them was already kneeling on the ground, constantly kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"I don't want to open the killing ring, I just want to know what's going on in this compound?" Liu Chang said in a deep voice.
"I don't know what the specific thing is, but I heard that someone sneaked into our Zhu family and stole something, as for what it is, I am still looking for it. The monk replied, kneeling and begging for mercy.
The other Sword Casting City disciple who didn't speak looked at Liu Chang coldly at this time.
"What, you're not afraid of death?" Liu Chang asked the foundation building monk who was standing a little strangely.
"Of course I'm afraid of death, but if you beg for mercy, will you let the two of us go?" It's better to die with dignity than to die with dignity! Besides, even if you kill the two of us, can you escape from Sword Forge City?" the man said with a backbone and contempt.
"If you can't escape, it's a matter of this seat, and it has nothing to do with you, since you want to become a benevolent, this seat will fulfill you!" After speaking, Liu Chang grabbed the monk's head and forcibly performed the soul searching technique, and immediately a large amount of information drilled into Liu Chang's mind, so that Liu Chang had a full understanding of the Zhu family's compound. And after this person was searched for souls, his expression was sluggish, his mouth was drooling, and a fireball burst out of Liu Chang's palm, and in a few breaths, this person was incinerated into ashes!
The monk's body trembled like chaff on the kneeling ground, and he exclaimed: "Seniors spare their lives! The little ones who know have told their seniors!
"For your sake, spare your life, and this storage bag will be rewarded to you! But you have to let go of the Yuan Shen, let this seat leave the imprint of divine consciousness, and be the servant of this seat, are you willing?" Liu Chang didn't plan to kill several people, and it was good to leave one person as a fine work, at least some news about the Zhu family could be known in time, so seeing that this person was greedy for life and afraid of death, he left this person, but he still had to give some benefits and not let him have too many complaints.
The man on the ground hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and let go of the Yuan Shen, Liu Chang easily performed the enslavement technique, leaving a divine sense imprint in this person's Yuan Shen, and another bright spot appeared in the sea of consciousness, but it was a little darker, and the brightest was the first three bright spots, followed by Jiujin and Zhao Liying's, and the last one was this person.
"Zhu Gang has seen the master!" the monk who was kneeling on the ground put away the storage bag, got up and saluted Liu Changshen.
With a wave of his right hand, Liu Chang put the pieces of the corpses of the two late-stage foundation building monks on the ground into the storage bag, and said to Zhu Gang: "Let's go, take this seat to the Zhu family's treasure house and see if there are any good things." "Just now, Soul Search learned that the place where I am now is only the periphery of the Zhu family's compound, and further inside is the core area of the Zhu family, there are all kinds of warning prohibitions inside, and it is difficult to enter without an identity token. However, since you are here, you can't enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed, of course, go to its treasure house to see if you can get some cheap.
After Liu Chang finished speaking, there was a crisp sound of bones all over his body, and he turned into a monk in the late stage of foundation building in the blink of an eye, and he looked like Senior Brother Yan who had just been frozen to death by Liu Chang! Zhu Gang's eyes were straight, this master still has such ability, of course he can enter and exit the Zhu family as if he were on the ground, no wonder the master has no fear, and is busy bending down to lead the way in front.
"Master, the little one only knows the place of the treasure house, but he can't enter the treasure house without the key to enter and exit the treasure house!"
Liu Chang then remembered that Xiao Hei was still in the cocoon and couldn't help himself, if it was a simple prohibition, of course he could break it, but some of the more difficult prohibitions he couldn't do anything about it. Liu Chang stopped and said, "Then forget it." How many Jindan monks are there in the Zhu family's compound now?"
Zhu Gang thought for a while and replied: "There are a total of sixty-eight Jindan monks in the Zhu family, just now there were more than forty people who went to chase the person who broke into the Zhu family, seven or eight people went out to do business, and now there should be about ten Jindan monks stationed in the compound, and the specific location is not clear." ”
Liu Chang wondered in his heart, how could Zhu Gang, a small monk in the middle stage of foundation building, know the information in such detail, and there was no such thing in the news obtained from the soul search just now, so Liu Chang asked this question.
Zhu Gang also saw Liu Chang's incomprehension, and said with a wry smile: "Master don't doubt it, the villain's surname is Zhu, and he is originally a side branch of the Zhu family, but it is currently in decline, only the villain is left, and everyone else looks down on the villain and treats the villain as a human being!" Zhu Gang said, his tone full of unwillingness and resentment.
Now Liu Chang understood why Zhu Gang was afraid of death and was unwilling to work for the Zhu family, a disciple of the Zhu family could even be scolded by a person with a foreign surname, how could he be willing to give his life.
Liu Chang patted Zhu Gang's shoulder sympathetically, and said, "You have to endure well, one day this seat will let you retake charge of the Zhu family!" A person who can forbear and judge the situation must have his strengths, and besides, he is already in the middle stage of foundation building in his thirties, and he is definitely better than himself. If it weren't for Xiao Hei's help, it would be impossible for his cultivation to increase so rapidly.
"Thank you, master, thank you, master!" Zhu Gang didn't expect that the master he recognized in order to save his life would give him such a heavy promise, and immediately knelt down and thanked him after being stunned.
Liu Chang thought about it, took out a few bottles of the best foundation building pill and other spiritual pills used in the foundation building period from the storage ring, and handed them to Zhu Gang: "You just practice well here, if there is any movement in the Zhu family, you must report it to this seat in time, but you must be careful not to expose yourself and cause death for no reason! This seat is gone!"
After explaining, Liu Chang used the identity of Senior Brother Yan to swagger out of the Zhu family's compound. Just now, thanks to the fact that he didn't rush into a hurry, he didn't expect that there were nearly seventy Jindan monks in a small Zhu family, no wonder the Nine Heavens Temple would unite with the Zhu family. More than seventy Jindan monks are already considered a large force in today's immortal cultivation world.
Quietly returning to the inn, Liu Chang recovered his appearance and began to carefully sort out the information obtained by Sou Shen. Liu Chang focused on information about the Nine Heavens Temple. Sure enough, the monk found the news that Zhao Liying had come to conclude an alliance in the monk's memory, but the Zhu family later met with an extremely mysterious person, who covered his face with a mask, and could not see what he looked like and which sect he belonged to.
Liu Chang was suspicious, according to what Zhao Liying said, the Zhu family happily agreed to form an alliance with the Nine Heavens Temple, but who was that very mysterious person? It seems that he will stay for a few days to figure out this matter.
In the memory of the monk, Liu Chang learned that the monk surnamed Zhu who was killed by himself outside the sword-casting city was the eldest son of Zhu Changgui, the boss of the Zhu family. It was also because Zhu Changgui loved him so much that he handed him the ancient treasure he won at the auction - Qingfeng Yin, and asked him to study it carefully, maybe he would be able to use it one day, but he didn't expect it to fall into Liu Chang's hands in the end.
Not long after Liu Chang lay down, the streets outside were full of people, it turned out that the sky was already slightly bright at this time, and the city gate that should have been wide open was closed at this time. The monks who waited to enter and leave the city began to become restless, and the shouts rang out.
"Everyone's attention! The city lord has an order: The city gate will not be opened for the time being! The monks above the Jindan must be routinely inspected, and the monks of the foundation building period must carefully inspect the cultivation of the period, and if they find that there is something to hide, they will be caught up first!" At this time, a loud voice sounded in the sky above the Sword Casting City, spreading to every corner, causing everyone to discuss.
"What? How can Sword Forge City be so domineering? We are here to spend money to refine weapons, and we are not criminals!"
"That's it, shouldn't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to react, it's too much!"
"Shhhhh
"Is something going on? Why is the city gate suddenly closed and everyone has to be checked?"
"It seems that someone broke into Zhu's house last night and stole something, I heard that even the eldest son of the second city lord of Zhu died last night"
For a while, there were different opinions.
Liu Chang pricked up his ears and listened for a while, full of speculation, but if it was rumored that the monk surnamed Zhu died last night, it would not be a good thing for him.
Less than an hour later, several teams of Sword Casting City disciples began to test the Zhuji monks one by one with the instruments used to test the monks' cultivation, and the Jindan monks were all invited to the Zhu family's mansion, as for what would happen, it was unknown.
Liu Chang successfully passed the test and came to the street. At this time, the streets were deserted, and everyone was driven back to their respective inns and restaurants by the disciples of Sword Casting City, where their true cultivation was tested. In the eyes of the Zhu family, the person who broke into the Zhu family last night must be a cultivator above the Jindan stage, or higher, otherwise how could he escape from the Zhu family's mansion in the Longtan Tiger's Den, even more than forty Jindan monks went out together and failed to catch him, of course, it couldn't be a foundation building monk
