Chapter 96 Night comes
"Gu Xiaosang..." Qi Zhengyan and Zhang Yuanshan also blurted out at the same time.
This strange death situation and the ability to easily kill Xia Chulin made Meng Qi and others as if they had reappeared yesterday, and they immediately thought of Gu Xiaosang, the saint of Luo Jiao.
The Inanimate Finger is an undisclosed secret contained in the Sutra of the Incarnation of the Inanimate Mother. It implies the highest secret of returning to the vacuum homeland and falling into the arms of the Inanimate Mother. In the past, only the leader, the saint, and a few people have made great achievements. Only the Protector Venerables can practice, so Meng Qi, Jiang Zhiwei and others are quite sure that Gu Xiaosang is here - those Protector Venerables are also first-class masters at worst, strong men in the external scene, so even if they are reincarnators, they will not be able to practice. It may appear in this camp confrontation mission, otherwise it would be just a matter of coming here and bloodbathing the entire village, so why bother.
As for the leader of the Luo Sect, it is even more impossible. He is an evil demon saint who has achieved the "vacuum body". He is ranked sixth on the heavenly list. He probably has no pressure to destroy this world.
Hearing several people say "Wu Shengzhi" and "Gu Xiaosang" in silence, Luo Shengyi, who had always behaved calmly, changed his face and whispered: "But Gu Xiaosang, the reincarnation of Wu Sheng's mother, is on the list of people." fourth?"
"Yes, that's her." Meng Qi answered without concealing anything. After all, Luo Shengyi was a teammate in the same camp. He also had seven orifices and was very powerful. If he concealed this matter, he would be unexpectedly attacked and killed by Gu Xiaosang. , then it is not just a matter of deducting 200 good deeds, the strength of the entire team will be reduced by at least 40%, and the chance of winning will be slim.
Luo Shengyi suppressed his surprise and nodded gently: "The Wushengzhi is indeed well-deserved..."
After sighing for a while, he looked at Xia Dandan, who looked sad and shocked: "Three hundred thousand good deeds, the 'Daluo Golden Talisman', but the resurrection is coming for the first time, so it is not without hope."
Three hundred thousand good deeds... Meng Qi's tongue curled up when he heard this. This was exactly the same as the good deeds needed to escape from the world of reincarnation. In other words, only by giving up the hope of leaving the nightmare reincarnation could he save a life. It was really difficult to make a choice.
But there is still a glimmer of hope. Sometimes, people always need a little hope to survive.
Xia Dandan smiled sadly: "Brother, 300,000 good deeds are no more than a Buddhist paradise. It's out of reach. I don't have extravagant hopes. I just hope to kill Gu Xiaosang and avenge Chu Lin."
Luo Shengyi said sincerely and proudly: "If she does not die at the hands of others, I, Luo Shengyi, will kill her to avenge Chu Lin."
Meng Qi curled his lips when he heard this. Gu Xiaosang was cunning and vicious, with high martial arts skills and abundant resources. How could it be so easy to kill her, unless she suddenly "got sick" and turned into Xiao Zi.
At this time, the servants and guards of Fengyun Manor carefully inspected the corpses. Their expressions were all pale, and they shuddered at the strange death of the two people.
They divided some of them and went to report to the owner of the village. The remaining few turned around and looked at Meng Qi and others.
One of the mature and solemn men asked: "Several distinguished guests, after listening to your discussion just now, it seems that they know who the murderer is?"
Luo Shengyi always acted like a leader, but he didn't know the details about Gu Xiaosang, so he looked sideways at Meng Qi.
Meng Qi pondered for a moment and said: "Amitabha, the murderer is indeed a familiar acquaintance of the poor monk and others. She is a new master of the Demon Sect. She is vicious and cruel, and her strength is only a sliver behind the leader of the Demon Sect."
He still couldn't figure out the level of strength in this world, so he had to make it up randomly. Anyway, it would be enough to say that Gu Xiaosang's strength was higher.
"Only one step behind Demon Hu? Isn't it the peak of 'Tongyou', close to 'Entrance'?" The man who asked the question was shocked and couldn't believe it. The leader of the Demon Cult and the owner of his own village have always been called the same, respectively. He is the pillar of the two paths of good and evil, and is stronger than the others. He is only one step behind him. Isn't he at the level of the leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the Supreme Elder of Zhaixing Tower, and the old man Que of Xiaoyue Sect?
However, only this kind of master can quietly assassinate a strong man who has just entered Tongyou in the village.
"Amitabha, monks don't lie." Meng Qi looked honest.
The steward who asked the question was shocked and shocked: "When did the Demon Cult produce such a new master? Little Master, what is her name and what she looks like? Please describe her in detail so that I can order the disciples in the village to search her."
"Her name is Gu Xiaosang, and she may call herself Xiaozi. She is a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old. She has exquisite facial features, a beautiful face, and a smart and ethereal temperament..." Meng Qi roughly described the Gu Xiaosang in his impression. Read it again.
The steward nodded gently and ordered the guards on the left and right: "Such women must be particularly conspicuous. Let the disciples search carefully. Be careful not to blindly do anything. Once discovered, shout loudly and retreat at the same time."
After saying that, he looked at Meng Qi and others: "Dear guests, please stay in the flower hall and don't go out to wait for the village owner's summons."
If something like this happens, the village owner's previous summons can only be cancelled, waiting for his current decision. Moreover, the origins of this group of monks, Taoists and secular power helpers are not clear, and they are quite suspicious. They cannot be allowed to do so. They move around randomly.
"As the guest does, the host does as he pleases." Luo Shengyi replied with a smile.
Xia Dandan pursed her lips and said, "Can I carry Chu Lin's body back to the flower hall? If you want to examine the body and identify martial arts, please come to the flower hall."
Seeing that there was another corpse, the steward allowed Xia Dandan to walk into the room.
"Wait a minute." Fu Zhenzhen said suddenly.
She was sweet and generous in front of people she knew well, but she was always afraid of strangers, so she rarely spoke during the journey. At this moment, she suddenly stopped her, making everyone stunned and looked at her in surprise.
Fu Zhenzhen's face turned red, and he stared at his toes and said, "There are poisons specially put on corpses and clothes to deal with people who come into close contact with corpses."
Xia Dandan jumped back a step away from her brother.
"When Chulin was killed, I couldn't control my emotions for a while and forgot such a simple trap." Luo Shengyi sighed, waved his sleeves, and the wind blew up Xia Chulin's clothes. At the same time, Jiang Zhiwei and other people who had opened their eyes looked at it and saw a faint light blue color on the clothes.
The manager was scared after seeing it. Fortunately, he thought that he was not strong enough and did not touch the body. He just checked the death and the surrounding environment, otherwise he would have gone to see the King of Hell now.
"Zhenzhen, can you remove these poisons?" Zhang Yuanshan signaled Fu Zhenzhen to deal with the body.
Fu Zhenzhen raised her head slightly: "I recognize this kind of poison, as long as it doesn't come into direct contact with the skin."
"Gu Xiaosang is actually good at using poison?" Meng Qi whispered to Jiang Zhiwei.
Jiang Zhiwei had been on guard all the time. Upon hearing this, she shook her head and said, "Perhaps she has teammates who are good at using poison."
Afterwards, Xia Dandan tore off her clothes with a gloomy face, wrapped her hands, and took Xia Chulin back to the flower hall, intending to find a place to bury him after leaving Fengyun Manor.
…………
After an hour, Meng Qi and others finally met Gu Kongshan, the owner of Fengyun Manor. He was an old man in his fifties, with black hair, a straight back, a burly figure, and a majestic presence. There were three men and two women around him, some older and some younger, who were either elders or his most proud disciples.
"Where are you from?" Gu Kongshan asked directly.
Luo Shengyi had already known the approximate distribution of forces and geographical location here from Xia Chulin, so he made up a remote prefecture.
Gu Kongshan nodded without comment, and said with a heavy face: "Since we failed to find Gu Xiaosang, she must have left the village in the chaos. You must be careful and never leave the courtyard." He didn't say anything more, nor did he ask Meng Qi and others about their strength. After a few pleasantries, he sent them back. "Gu Kongshan seems to be a little suspicious of us." After returning to the courtyard, Zhang Yuanshan pondered. Luo Shengyi smiled lightly and said, "I am also suspicious of his unknown origin and such a thing happened again. However, he will definitely take us with him. The combined strength of the seven of us is very strong. If they are fellow practitioners, we can explore the way and become their scapegoats. If they are spies of the Demon Sect, we can use their tricks to weaken the strength of the Demon Sect. Spies are not scary, but spies who don't know are scary." Jiang Zhiwei and Qi Zhengyan didn't like the domineering Luo Shengyi. After discussing for a while, they decided on a strategy and went back to their rooms to adjust their breath. Meng Qi was also in a hurry to go back and practice the fifth level of the Golden Bell Cover. He did not delay and only left Zhang Yuanshan and Fu Zhenzhen to chat with Luo Shengyi and Xia Dandan for a few more words.
Not long after practicing, Fu Zhenzhen and Zhang Yuanshan knocked on Meng Qi's door.
"What's the matter?" Meng Qi looked at them in surprise.
Zhang Yuanshan smiled and pointed at Fu Zhenzhen: "Zhenzhen prepared some medicine powder that can repel poisonous insects, so come and sprinkle it on you."
"There is such a good thing?" Meng Qi said in surprise.
Fu Zhenzhen and Meng Qi are also quite familiar with each other. She covered her mouth and smiled: "I am worried that there will be enemies driving poisonous insects into the house at night to attack, so I used realgar, five-flowered vine, poisonous root and other drugs to prepare a kind of medicine powder that can make most poisonous insects dare not approach."
In fact, it is to repel insects, right? Meng Qi laughed secretly, watching Fu Zhenzhen sprinkle the powder by the door and dry it by the window, and felt how happy it was to have a medical master or a poison master in the team.
…………
It was late at night, and Meng Qi sat upright on the bed, his skin flowing dark gold, like a bronze statue.
A slight knock on the door woke Meng Qi up.
"Who?" Meng Qi put away his inner energy and asked cautiously. If Gu Xiaosang was outside, he would have to shamelessly shout "Help".
"Me." Jiang Zhiwei's voice sounded outside the door, and then added, "I'm here to teach you the Yama Post."
Hearing "Yan Luo Post", Meng Qi was immediately relieved. It was not someone else pretending to be Jiang Zhiwei, so he opened the door and let her in.
Jiang Zhiwei changed her dress and turned into the goose yellow color that Meng Qi saw for the first time. Her long hair was slightly wet and scattered on her shoulders. She was both casual and lazy, showing an unprecedented temperament.
Seeing Meng Qi was a little stunned, she smiled and said, "After taking a bath, I remembered that I didn't teach you the 'Yan Luo Tie', so I came to bother you. Little monk, are you not welcome?" As she spoke, she threw a long sword to Meng Qi, which should have been borrowed from the manor. "Welcome, of course, welcome, it's an honor." Meng Qi took the long sword and asked directly about swordsmanship without saying anything. Jiang Zhiwei was not polite either. She sat at the table and talked freely and demonstrated from time to time. She was talented in swordsmanship, focused, and willing to work hard. She not only knew how to use the sword, but also knew why to use the sword in this way. Therefore, she taught in a simple and easy-to-understand way, directly pointing to the essence, allowing Meng Qi to quickly enter the state. Meng Qi was good at swordsmanship, and the occasional questions from the swordsmanship also made Jiang Zhiwei learn by analogy and gain a lot. One of them taught attentively, and the other studied attentively. Unknowingly, the sound of the clappers at three o'clock in the morning rang outside. "Let's stop here tonight. We must stay alert to deal with the surprise attack." Jiang Zhiwei covered her mouth and yawned slightly.
Meng Qi nodded and remembered something: "Zhiwei, have you opened your nose?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said: "In the Sword Washing Pavilion, the improvement of swordsmanship must be accompanied by the improvement of cultivation. I can create the 'Yan Luo Tie' by myself, so I must have opened my nose."
Before she finished speaking, she raised her finger and put it to her lips to signal Meng Qi to be quiet. At the same time, she waved her left palm to extinguish the candle.
Meng Qi said nothing and waited quietly. After a while, there was a rustling sound outside the door.
