Chapter 320: The Big Red
Although no one knew the cause of death of Taijing and Guanglu Daoren, after some investigation, all the suspicions pointed to Qinghuai Daoren and Zhang Qian, a disciple of Flame Hell Peak.
Of course, this is just speculation, and in the absence of evidence, there is no way to take Qinghuai Daoren, after all, he is the inspector responsible for supervising Tianlu Peak, and he belongs to the person in charge of Xiaoyunzi, who does not dare to move, and when Guanglu Daoist has an accident, Qinghuai Daoist has never left Tianlu Peak, so the focus of suspicion is still on Zhang Qian, but he has repeatedly sent people to Flame Prison Peak to investigate, but he has been turned away, and he has also obtained some news from Bihai Peak, so it can be concluded that the murderer of Guanglu Dao and Tai Jing is this Zhang Qian, who can't hold back several times, and even wants to hit Flame Prison Peakγ
But there are Qinghuai Daoists who are obstructing him, and he can't act recklessly and provoke the sect's infighting without authorization, which is a serious crime.
He had been looking for Zhang Qian but couldn't, but now he suddenly appeared in front of him, how could he not be surprised.
The anger accumulated in his heart was aroused in an instant, but unfortunately Xiao Yunzi was present, and he didn't dare to do anything, if there was evidence, of course he could accuse Zhang of killing his fellow disciples on the spot, but there was only a trace of speculation in this matter, and it was better not to mention it.
Xiao Yunzi didn't notice the change in the expression of Yutai Jingbo behind him, and then looked at the sea toad who was hiding in the corner and cowering a little uncomfortable, only to see his eyes glazed over, the corners of his mouth drooling, as long as he was a normal person, he could find that the sea toad was a little abnormal now, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he asked Wushengzi: "Why did the sea toad become like this? And the other people who went with you." β
"Something has changed, and I will want to explain the specific details to the head of Tianquan Peak. Wushengzi frowned slightly, looked around, and signaled that some things were inconvenient to pick in public.
"Okay, let's not talk about this matter for now, please move to Tianquan Peak and take a break. Xiao Yunzi's expression was slightly stunned, and he naturally understood that there might be some hidden secrets. But soon returned to normal, smiled slightly, and said a word, but after a while, everyone went to the Tianquan Peak Hall, and the idle people were all dismissed, including Chong Hezi, Yutai Jingbo, these high-ranking bigwigs also had no right to stay and observe, Zhang Qian was the person involved, but he couldn't get out, so he had to sit at the end of the hall in a restrained manner, while listening to the complaint of Wushengzi to the sect master Xiaoyunzi. took care of the sea toad who had an uncontrollable attack of madness, and Xiao Yunzi didn't pay much attention to him.
"The Sect Master can know why the Sea Toad Peak Lord has become like this. Seeing that there were no outsiders in the audience, and he was not trying to control his emotions, his voice suddenly became excited.
Xiao Yunzi's gaze stayed beside Hai Toad for a moment, and he carefully sensed it with his divine sense, and also made some judgments in his heart, and asked, "Is it a divine soul?"
"The Lord of Sea Toad Peak has cultivated the Golden Pill half a year ago, and his divine soul and vitality have been fused into one, what means can only hurt his divine soul. And not to damage its golden pill?" Wushengzi smiled, his expression full of desolation.
"As far as I know, there is only Biluo Huangquan Great True Qi. Xiao Yunzi pondered for a moment, but he didn't think of any other possibilities. His face gradually became ugly, "You mean that the person who hurt him is Yang Jiye?"
The childless's eyes closed slightly, and then suddenly opened, as if he had made up his mind. got up and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "Please also ask the sect master to be the master of the next few people." β
"What the hell is going on?" Xiao Yunzi was a little confused, he was out of the customs not long ago. I am not familiar with the newly recruited closed disciples of Huangquan Demon Venerable, I only know that he was ordered to go down the mountain not long ago, and only he and Huangquan Demon Venerable are the only two people in the world who practice Huangquan Dao Technique, so they came to this conclusion, but I don't know the reason, why did Yang Jiye attack Wushengzi, Hai Toad Zi and others, could it be that there is any grievance between the two sides? And he doesn't quite believe that a disciple who has only been in the field for two years, even if he is a genius in Tianzhong, I am afraid that he will not be able to hurt the three Jindan Immortals like this, and Hai Toad has directly become an idiot.
"If any of the next words are false, people and gods will abandon them!"
Before Wushengzi could speak, his eyes were filled with killing intent, and he swore a poisonous oath to the sky, which made the sect leader Xiao Yunzi's face more and more solemn, but he was afraid that this matter would be worse than he thought.
"At the beginning, I and the Sea Toad Peak Lord and others were ordered by the sect master to go down the mountain to secretly help the Minotaur General to go to the land of the Southern Barbarians, in order to relieve it, I did not hesitate to have a head-on conflict with Yangshan Xiaodongtian, and suffered a fiasco, but the Minotaur Ghost General took this opportunity to get out of trouble and leave, it can be said that we did not live up to the mission of the sect......" Wushengzi told the whole thing from beginning to end, including that he was captured by the Ziyang Daoist, was refined into a puppet, and was rescued by the Taishang Daoist secretly giving a helping hand, but did not explain that Zhang Qian was the Taishang Daoist, just concealed some things, but did not have any deceptive nature, and then said that he and others were instructed by the Taishang Daoist to take refuge in the Minjiang Water Mansion, and only then did he escape the catastrophe, until Yang Jiye came to the door and wanted to cut off the dragon vein, which led to the conflict," We owe people a favor, so we naturally want to stop Yang Jiye's actions. β
"The people of my Demon Sect don't care if it's right or wrong, just talk about one grievance and grievance, Yang Jiye's move is for the interests of the sect, and there is nothing wrong with it, but from the position of a few of you, it also makes sense to stop this matter, but the Taishang Daoist is doing this, it should be a signal sent by the gods of the earth to my Demon Sect, indicating that there is sincerity in forming an alliance, from this point of view, Yang Jiye only cares about the immediate interests and ignores the long-term situation, but it is a little stupid!" Xiao Yunzi looked at things more objectively and comprehensively, and did not obviously turn to one side, nor did he clearly say who was right and who was wrong, but he just thought that Yang Jiye's move was a little inconsiderate and a little inappropriate.
"But Yang Jiye didn't listen to our persuasion, insisted on doing so, and in the end even slandered us for turning our backs on the sect and cleaning up the portal for the sect!"
"Clean up the portal?" After Xiao Yunzi heard this word, his face gradually became gloomy, and his voice was so cold that it seemed to be able to freeze ice ballast on people's bodies, and said, "Who gave him this right!"
Wushengzi is the elder of Xiaowei Mountain, the two peak masters of Tianzhan Peak died for the sect, and their merits are remarkable, and the master of Wushengzi is even more close friends with him, and he also has absolute trust in Wushengzi, otherwise he will not hand over such an important task to him, and Wushengzi will turn his back on the sect? He will not believe it if he is killed, but Yang Jiye slandered him in such a clumsy way, and wanted to use this as an excuse to put him to death, which simply made him unbearable, who is the traitor, he already has a clear conclusion in his heart. It's just a little puzzled, why did Yang Jiye do this, just because he had no son to stop him from intercepting the dragon vein of the Minjiang River, if so, this son is really vicious.
"At that time, the three of us were seriously injured and had not yet recovered, but Yang Jiye didn't know what opportunity he had in Shuzhou, and he actually cultivated into a golden pill, and we couldn't compete with him, and the Lord of Sea Toad Peak was bad for him at that time. He used the Huangquan Biluo Great True Qi to erode the Jindan, and in the end, the old man could only fight to paralyze his body and exert all directions to repel him, but it is a pity that the soul of the Sea Toad Peak has been injured by the Huangquan True Qi and has become what it is now. β
After Hai Toad said that the two sides had fought each other, Xiao Yunzi also understood.
Yang Jiye didn't think the three of them were in the way at all, so he started to hurt people, if it was just for the sake of the Minjiang dragon vein, let the three of them know the difficulties and retreat, he was also fully capable of doing this at that time. There is no need to kill the killer at all, he wants to plunder the Dao of the three people, and he naturally knows the usefulness of the Huangquan Dao Technique, using the Huangquan True Qi to erode the Sea Toad Zi Jindan. Seeing the dagger, he exposed his sinister intentions, gritted his teeth and said: "This son should be killed!"
The first two peak masters of Tianzhan Peak both forcibly used the magic power of destroying the ten directions and buried their lives, but they were all fighting for the life and death of the sect. didn't expect that Wushengzi would have the opportunity to end up in the same fate, but the most chilling thing was that he was not fighting against the Daomen like the previous two peak masters. Even if he died in battle, he enjoyed the supreme glory, but was forced to this step by his peers, and he couldn't bear all this if he was himself, it was too embarrassing, but he couldn't solve this matter in the simplest way, this Yang Jiye is the predecessor disciple of the Huangquan Demon Venerable, he has no right to govern, and the three Demon Venerables have reached a consensus that he will inherit his position, and this person's position is simply unshakable.
Xiao Yunzi can't imagine what kind of impact such a person who deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors to assume the position of the sect master of Xiaowei Mountain, I am afraid that it will usher in the darkest period of Xiaowei Mountain in a thousand years.
Thinking that half of his life's work would be ruined by this person, he felt a strong feeling of resistance in his heart.
"I will reflect this matter like the three demon venerables, even if he Yang Jiye is the pride of the sky, I want him to give an explanation!" Xiao Yunzi's five fingers were clasped tightly, the chairs in this hall were all made of dark iron, and the armrests were like mud in the palm of his hand, and he was completely deformed by the grasp, and only by venting in this way could he not let himself lose his temper, but his eyes inadvertently fell on Zhang Qian, and he remembered that the whole thing seemed to have no role for him from beginning to end, but he just returned to the sect with Wushengzi and others, and he didn't understand the relationship, and asked: "How did this kid get together with you, was he there at the time?"
"Thanks to Zhang Qian's timeliness, otherwise the three of us would have been unlucky at that time. β
Before returning to the sect, Zhang Qian had already arranged everything, and Wushengzi also explained according to the words he gave: " At that time, although I used the ten directions to destroy Yang Jiye was seriously injured, but it did not make him lose his combat effectiveness, in addition to the junior brother Wumingzi still has spare strength, I and the sea toad peak master are already out of oil, if he continues to commit violence, we only have a dead end, at this time Zhang Qian's nephew unexpectedly appeared near the Minjiang River Mansion, that Yang Jiye has been chased and killed by the righteous people, some plants and trees are soldiers, it is estimated that Zhang Qian's nephew is regarded as a person of the Daomen, so he fled, I waited for a chance to pick up a life. β
Zhang Qian explained by the way the reason why he appeared near the Minjiang Water Mansion, of course, it was just an excuse to make things seem logical.
only said that he took over the task of the sect and went down the mountain to carry out, but he was involved in the chaos of Shuzhou in a daze, and the path back to the mountain was also blocked by Yangshan Xiaodongtian, and he could only be exhausted in various parts of Shuzhou, and finally waited until Yangshan Xiaodongtian withdrew the blockade, and then happened to pass by Minjiang Shuifu on the way back to Zongmen, and everything he said had a basis.
As soon as Xiao Yunzi heard that Zhang Qian was just a trickster, the whole thing had little to do with him from beginning to end, so his interest in him faded.
I just feel that Zhang Qian is like a blessed general, how chaotic the situation in Shuzhou is, he naturally knows that several people without children have escaped from death, but he can be safe and sound, but he robbed some Taoist disciples, making his own cultivation to a great progress, and appeared at a critical moment to save the lives of several people without children, and he also attaches more importance to this, Fuyuan may not be a person's capital, but also has the meaning of cultivation, called the deacon and Taoist outside the council hall, and took a thick stack of rune paper, which are all vouchers that record the contribution of the sect, and are packed in trays. It was handed over to Zhang Qian, "It's not your fault that the sect's mission failed, it's caused by the situation, you can still be safe and sound in the Longtan Tiger's Den, this is a blessing, take advantage of it, practice hard in the future, congratulations on your early attainment of the Jindan Dao, these contributions are rewarded to you by the deity, you can go to Tianlu Peak in exchange for some cultivation resources." Today's events must be kept tight-lipped and never mentioned to outsiders. β
Zhang Qian will not shirk, with his current status, he does not have the capital to be polite with Xiaoyunzi, he honestly accepted the reward, and his eyes scanned the circle in the plate, and he had a clear idea.
That's three million, and to be honest, it's a bit shabby.
Three million sect contribution points, and the Pure Yang Great Dan that can be exchanged for in Tianlu Peak is only six or seven thousand. It is not as generous as the gift of the Tanglin Daoist.
But the meaning of the two is different, Xiaoyunzi is completely just the cultivation of the elders to the younger generations, without any utilitarian benefits, but the Taoist master of Tanglin wants Zhang Qian to work for him. Naturally, the price given is not the same.
From this point of view, Xiao Yunzi is already very generous.
"This person is a worthy target. Zhang Qian also has a good impression of Xiao Yunzi and thinks that this person is worth dealing with.
Of course, now is not the time to open the skylight and speak brightly, and receive the reward. There wasn't much to do with him here, so he was led away by the deacon, but he met Oki Kazuko in the front hall. Unexpectedly, Chong Hezi still had a trace of Zhang Qian's image, remembering that when he first took the entry test qualification, this son's temperament was considered superior, but he vomited out the survival pill in one go, so that he was classified as not in the stream, which made him remember, but now it seems that he has taken his eyes away, allowing Flame Hell Peak to pick up such a big bargain, and enter the realm of Da Zhou Tian within two years, this qualification is a few points better than the disciple Fang Xizhi he received two years ago, which makes him sigh.
When the deacon Taoist led Zhang Qian out, his attitude was extremely respectful.
In fact, this deacon Taoist doesn't know where Zhang Qian is sacred, but the person who has been rewarded by the sect master himself is still a rare reward, presumably not an ordinary role, it is always right to be respectful, and it also made Chong Hezi have a misunderstanding, thinking that Zhang Qian has now become a popular person in front of the sect master, not to mention that he has a good relationship with Wushengzi, more close, more benefits than disadvantages, but also stepped forward to greet each other, of course there are a lot of topics, Zhang Qian's disciples were worshiped into the sect through his hands, not to mention that his disciples Fang Xizhi and Zhang Qian are also fellow villagers, he does not take the shelf of the peak master, and Zhang Qian can talk very well, only listen to laughter constantly, and feel a lotγ
In contrast, Tangtai Jingbo has a lot of points, Zhang Qian naturally will not take the initiative to greet the enemy, and is suspected of deliberately teasing, while Tangtai Jingbo has no evidence and cannot threaten Zhang Qian.
Especially Zhang Qian now has a good relationship with the sect master and the rest of the peak masters, there is no evidence, it is even more difficult to shake it, but it will startle the snake, so he also kept silent, sitting on the seat, looking at the nose and nose and looking at the heart of an old monk, but the gloomy color on his face is obvious, Chong Hezi doesn't understand the grievances between the two, and he doesn't bother to care about what the old guy has doneγ
is talking about some of his encounters in the turmoil in Shuzhou, many of which are extremely thrilling, which makes Chong Hezi nervous about it.
"You can avoid it, I really don't know if you are too lucky, or if you have good means, maybe both. Chong Hezi laughed and said, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "What sect task did you take on at the beginning, and you need to go to Nanban to complete it?"
Zhang Qian smiled, as if embarrassed, and said, "It's what you entrusted, Peak Master." β
"Go to Nanban to kill the Black Jiao?" Wushengzi suddenly became nervous when he heard it, because Zhang Qian had already told him before, he didn't even go to this Nanban, this task was naturally a failure, no wonder he, the situation in Shuzhou is chaotic like this, I am afraid it will be difficult to successfully retrieve the essence blood of the black Jiao if he goes by himself, and now counting the time, the black Jiao has already crossed the catastrophe and turned into a dragon, this thing seems to be no fun, this is a bit unlucky, the black Jiao he has been in captivity for decades, and the period before the catastrophe is when he is the weakest, it is easy to kill, I thought that as long as this matter is handed over to a reliable person, it can be foolproof, who knows that at the critical time, Shuzhou actually started a riotγ
"It is this matter that the master and nephew have been entrusted with it, and they also hope to punish Chong and Uncle Zi. Zhang Qian also directly admitted his mistake.
"No wonder you, it's just a pity, this black Jiao essence blood book is taken to refine a natal flying sword for my apprentice Fang Xi, the sword fetus has already been cast, just need to give birth to the instrument spirit can be promoted to the ancient spirit treasure, if you have the help of this sword, next month the sect will definitely be able to achieve some good results, the reward is secondary, mainly to be able to take advantage of the victory to strengthen his Dao heart." Chong Hezi shook his head and said, there is disappointment, but it is not much, he didn't expect Fang Xizhi to be able to come out on top in the sect competition, then Yang Jiye returned to the sect a few days ago, it is said that he has cultivated into a golden pill, and it is not at all an ancient spirit treasure that can make up for the gap, just want him to take this opportunity to sharpen it.
Zhang Qian was also a little relieved, "Now that I have returned to the sect safely, I haven't reported to my master yet, the kid plans to go back to Flame Hell Peak first, and I ask my uncle to forgive me, and I will personally come to the door to ask for guilt in a few days." β
Chong Hezi also had no attitude towards Zhang Qian's tendons, waved his hand and said: "What to talk about, go ahead, go ahead, but you are welcome to come to my Tianquan Peak as a guest." (To be continued......)
