Chapter 457: Letter from Death
The man behind the sword sealing snow.
The reason why Qiye thought of this was entirely because Jian Mantian had admitted to him that there were indeed hidden people behind the sword sealing snow scenes.
However, even Jian Mantian didn't know about it, Jian Fengxue hid this secret very well, no one told her, and she only heard about it.
"If that's the case, it makes sense. Qiye confirmed his guess, and then analyzed: "Star Scar can be resurrected after death, including the demon cultivator companion who controls Yun Qianlie, and with the Xuanfetal Bead and the Puppet Control Technique, it can indeed be done." ”
"What Brother Night means is that the sky snow makes us be careful of the dead, but it actually means be careful about the people who can revive the dead?"
"I didn't say that!" Kong Xue suddenly hugged her head and shook her head like a rattle, obviously not wanting to recall this period of history.
Qiye pondered for a long time, and then continued: "Control the star mark, control the demon cultivation, and finally Yun Qianlie disappeared. If such a move were to be done by the stars, it really didn't make any sense. But if it's the guy behind the scenes who studies the corpses, it's hard to say. ”
"Star Marks, human monks, demon cultivators, I don't know how many people have died in the Eternal Night Great Array, and the most important thing to see when studying the mystery of death and studying the puppet corpse is war!"
"That's a true abominable moth!" Fuyuki slapped the table hard, and the most grumpy of the grumpy spoke.
Yes, in order to study death, in order to study the mystery of corpses and puppets, it is infuriating to hide behind the scenes and quietly promote all kinds of wars, big and small.
This is even more hateful than those monks who only care about themselves and give up fighting against the starry sky, this is stirring up trouble, and the final result will be a lose-lose situation, and it is also the most unacceptable outcome for Seven Nights.
"Pushing the human race to fight the war between the demons and the stars, the mysterious man hiding behind the sword and the snow curtain, what does he want to do?"
Seven Nights' question, no one present was able to give him an answer.
No one knows what kind of benefits war, corpses, and death can bring to the other party, so that he is so tirelessly doing evil things.
"However, although the Righteous Path Alliance has dispersed and Jian Fengxue has died, a dead city where I found them secretly studying corpses should not have been destroyed yet. At that time, I was tired of dealing with various things, but I hadn't been there for a long time. ”
The patronage in Qiye's mouth, needless to say, Jiang Linyun and the others all understand the meaning.
Moreover, under the speculation of Qiye, if Yun Qianlie really disappeared, then the most likely place to appear is in the dead city!
Because the puppet of that year, because of the other, no, more than one genius monk back then, were all refined to become immortal puppets, in the dead city!
"Bai Xue, five days have passed since the agreed recovery period, and there are still two days left, and I can leave the city in two days, this is what we have agreed, right?" After Qiye made up his mind, he was the first to ask Bai Xue for confirmation.
Bai Xue frowned, dissatisfied with Qiye's decision to choose to go out of the city, but she nodded anyway because it was an agreement.
"Okay, then, in the past two days, we will send more people out to find Yun Qianlie's traces, and two days later, we will set off, and the master of Laojiang Sect will lead his disciples to help, and continue to take care of the affairs in the Seven Nights City. ”
"Such a big matter, as an ally, is the Seven Nights City Lord ready to act alone?"
Jiang Linyun glanced at Baili Xiangge, who was just about to speak, and took the lead.
Qiye had to explain: "It's not, it's just that this time I went to the dead city, mainly to find out the news, not to prepare for a general attack, so it's not good to have too many people." ”
"Then I have a lot of good hands at cultivating under the Hidden Knife Sect, so I can go with you. Jasmine Sword Immortal Jiang Linyun was not satisfied with Qiye's explanation, and her words were not wrong, if it was to be compared to the cultivation realm, the disciples under the Tibetan Sword Sect were not much worse than the three snows behind Qiye.
Qiye couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Originally, it was a thankless task to go to the dead city to investigate, but now Jiang Linyun said that it seemed to be a great thing that had to be contested.
"In this way, I also know that the Lord of Seven Nights City has his own considerations, and I will only send one master to assist on the side of the Hidden Sword Gate, and the rest will stay behind to help 'guard' Seven Nights City, which can be regarded as a benevolent and righteous to you, an ally!"
Jiang Linyun deliberately accentuated the word "guard".
Qiye suddenly felt like a mang on his back, and sure enough, he heard Jiang Linyun say again: "Then, Jinxiu, you are responsible for going to assist the Seven Nights City Lord." ”
Baili Xiange was surprised, she didn't expect Jiang Linyun to assign her to go, you must know that among all the masters, she is the one with the lowest cultivation.
However, at the thought of being able to walk with Qiye again, even if it was to go to a place full of unknowns and horrors like the Dead City, Baili Xiange also felt a little looking forward to it, and she nodded without hesitation and agreed.
Looking at Jiang Linyun and Baili Xiange's actions, Qiye couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, sure enough, this situation still happened.
Jiang Linyun's thoughts, as a Qiye with a seven-trick heart, how could he not know.
Just when he didn't know how to persuade Jiang Linyun again, a demon cultivator hurriedly ran in outside the door, holding a black envelope in his hand.
"City Lord! This is a man in black who threw it out from outside the city gate just now, and the envelope was inserted on the wall of Qiye City!"
As soon as Nanaya's hand touched the envelope, a bone-piercing coolness passed from the envelope.
This kind of chill is different from the Nine Returns Cold Tide Technique he cultivated, and the chill is even more mixed with decay, like the original Netherworld Yellow Spring.
"You all stand out a little. Qiye held the black envelope and said with a serious face, and everyone who knew the seriousness of the matter moved away for a distance.
Qiye slowly opened the black envelope, and there was no imaginary accident, a slightly yellowed letterhead appeared on Qiye's right hand, and after it was withdrawn, it accompanied the entire hall, and there was a gust of yin wind like nine shadows blowing, and then dissipated.
Open the letterhead, and "piece" a few large scarlet characters with bright red lines.
"People are in the dead city. ”
"What is this? Could it be that there are people behind us to help us, why do you want to tell us that they are in the Dead City?" said Fukiyuki first.
"It's not so much help, I think it's a dismount, obviously we just guessed that Yun Qianlie may be in the dead city now, and he hasn't gone to inquire yet, but there is already such a letter sent, what is this not a dismount?"
Bai Xue's opinion is completely different from that of Fuyuki, and she thinks that the owner of this letter is likely to be the mysterious person behind the scenes.
"Is he provoking when he sends such a letter? Even if we tell us that we are in the dead city, do we dare to go?" Baili Xiange analyzed.
"In my opinion, this letter is a dangerous signal, its words are the color of blood, the letterhead is dark yellow, the envelope is dark black, and the wind blowing, I am afraid that there will be many difficulties and accidents in the trip to the dead city. ”
Jiang Linyun didn't say whether to go or not, she knew that what had been decided, no matter what variables appeared, could not be changed.
Dead City, Seven Nights will definitely still go.
It's just that unlike the original temptation to detect, this time you are likely to encounter real danger.
She glanced at Baili Xiange with a little concern, and in Baili Xiangge's face, there was no other similar thought of retreating, Jiang Linyun knew that the matter had come to this, and it was useless to say anything.
"You all expressed your opinions just now. Brother Fuxue said that someone was secretly helping us, Bai Xue and the chord song thought that the letter was not good, and the master of Jiangmen thought that it was a signal letter of compromise and reminder. ”
Nanaya put down the letter in his hand and stuffed it back into the black envelope.
He gently placed the envelope on the stage and said, "Actually, in my opinion, this is a meaningless letter. ”
"We had decided long before this letter that we were going to make a trip to the Dead City, so whether it was a reminder or a threat, it didn't really make sense. ”
"Even if the dead city is the tiger's den in Longtan, it is impossible for us to just give up the opportunity to rescue Yun Qianlie, not to mention that the mysterious person behind the dead city is very likely to become another hidden threat after the starry sky and humans. ”
"So, I have to go. Qiye slowly spit out a few words, which can be regarded as an explanation to the companions present.
An explanation that has to go.
The black envelope is just an episode, no matter what the purpose of the messenger is, since Seven Nights has already set a plan, there is no need to change it.
In the end, she still couldn't resist the Baili String Song, and Qiye agreed to the condition of taking her with her, while Jiang Linyun was responsible for guarding Qiye City to prevent any nights from coming to the Qiye City during Qiye's absence.
The plan has been set, and everyone has left to get ready.
Leaving only Qiye and Jiang Linyun, they were still on the main hall, and Qiye looked at the letter on the table and fell into deep thought.
"It's high-sounding, but it's actually uncomfortable in my heart, and at such a critical moment, another letter with unknown meaning appears. "Jiang Linyun Road.
Among the so many people present, only Jiang Linyun, the master of the Hidden Sword Sect, whose knowledge and wisdom were higher than a level, could judge that Qiye's mood at this time was not as relaxed as he had said before.
Such a letter really forced him to a road of no return.
Being in the dead city means that he must go, and it also means that the dead city is ready, which means that he is no longer a secret plan.
"Whatever the motivations of the person who wrote the letter, it certainly will not be on our side. It may be neutral, but it is more likely to be someone on the other side. ”
"I'm afraid that's not a reason for you to be worried, you must have thought about something, that's why you're so melancholy. "Jiang Linyun is worthy of being a figure at the level of the master of the door, even if he doesn't have the seven-trick and exquisite heart like Qiye, he has guessed some of Qiye's thoughts.
Qiye didn't deny it, nodded and said, "Seventy-two immortal puppets." ”
As soon as this name came out, Jiang Linyun immediately understood the meaning of Qiye, and she had also heard of this mysterious seventy-two immortal puppet.
"Two of them are my former companions. If Yun Qianlie was like them, it would be three. ”
Death may not be the most terrible thing, facing the half-dead, half-alive, immortal puppet is his companion who once fought together, which is even heavier than death and makes Nanaya feel heavy.
"So is this why you hate that mysterious person behind the scenes so much?" Jiang Linyun couldn't help but ask.
Yes, the mastermind behind everything that led to such a result, Seven Nights must "see" it for himself during this trip to the Dead City!
