Chapter 450(1/2)
"Hey, this is a long story. The rain here has been getting less and less since a hundred years ago, and the nearby lakes and wells have gradually dried up. Only a few wells at the old palace site still produce water."
"Half a year ago, we dug a deep well, but we didn't expect that the ghost of King Loulan who died a hundred years ago would be found in Jingdong."
"After the king woke up, the entire city was wrapped in strange spells, turning it into a dead city that could only be entered but not exited.
At night, the king's soul and his retinue wander around the city, and no one dares to go out," said the landlady.
"You can only enter but not exit?" Murong said.
"We just walked in through the gate, how could we not come out? I don't believe it," said Miss Xia.
Miss Xia rushed out and headed for the exit, but she stayed where she was no matter what.
"Miss Xia." Lin Xiao said.
"Calm down."
"No, I don't want to wait here to die. I still have a long time to live. I want to go out," said Miss Xia.
"How unbecoming is it to be so out of character?" Huang Pu said.
"What are you talking about? If you really want to die here, I will beat you first."
"you."
"Miss Xia, the desert is dangerous, and I helped you all the way here, but now you are fighting among yourself and people are in chaos. Even if there is a way out, you can't think of a way out," Lin Xiao said.
"Brother Huangpu and Miss Xia, please calm down. We are in a dangerous situation right now. Our first priority is to work together and find a way out, right?" Lin Xiao said.
"Huh," said Miss Xia.
"You guys don't need to be pessimistic."
"Do you two have any idea?" Murong said.
"Master Long, what is this?"
"Explore the barrier covering Loulan to see if there are any loopholes. If there are any, we may be able to break the barrier with all our strength," Ling Bo said.
"How?" Lingbo said.
'This magic circle is very powerful. It will be troublesome to break through it.'
"What should we do?" Miss Xia said.
"I think you two already have a plan in mind," Lin Xiao said.
"How can you two really do it?" Jiang Cheng said.
"According to what the inn proprietress said, at night, the soul and relatives of King Loulan will wander in the city. This magic circle should be set up by King Loulan. As long as he surrenders, the natural magic circle will be broken." Ling Bo said.
"But if we can't succeed in one fell swoop, it will be troublesome to alert the snakes and make them hide instead."
‘That means tonight is an important moment?’ Lin Xiao said.
"That's right, let's go rest first."
"It's a demon causing trouble again. It's really unforgivable to do harm to people like this," Huang Pu said.
the other side.
"Three sect masters and masters are discussing important matters, please go back."
Huangpu Yiming: "Such a big thing happened at Zhejian Villa. We are all from the four major families. How can we just stand by and watch."
"Still not get out of the way."
"Master Huangpu, don't make things difficult for us."
"You guys should step aside first." The steward said, "Three sect masters, my sect master invites you in."
"Brother Ouyang, you seem to be looking bad. You should pay attention to your health." Huangpu Yiming said.
"Thank you for your concern. I came here very late at night. I don't know why I need to come together." Ouyang said.
"I heard that the leader of Zhejian Villa was assassinated and died young. The four great aristocratic families are in the same boat, so of course I have to come to express my condolences," Huangpu Yiming said.
"The two sect leaders invited me, so of course I can't push it out. However, as an outsider, I won't comment on the matters concerning Zuhang of Broken Sword Mountain." said sect leader Lin.
"Brother Lin, what you said is wrong. All the prominent figures from all the martial arts sects in the martial arts competition are at Zhejian Villa this time. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid the martial arts world will cause an uproar again." Shangguan said.
"The improper security of Zhejian Villa will cause Xiaoxiao to be defeated. I guarantee that this will never happen, so please rest assured." Sect Master Ouyang said.
"That's fine, I just don't know any clues about the murderer."
"Still checking."
‘Before your disciple Gui Gao died, he once competed with Jiang Cheng in the ring and was injured by him.
Although Brother Ouyang is upright and upright and drove Jiang Cheng out of the villa, there is no guarantee that he will not hold a grudge and come back to take action.' Huangpu Yiming said.
"Master Huangpu, please don't say this nonsense."
"Leader Ouyang, please don't get angry. Please allow me to speak slowly."
"Okay, Brother Huangpu, what do you think?" Leader Ouyang said.
"When did Jiang Cheng come to the villa?"
"Jiang Cheng was originally an orphan and was adopted by me since he was a child."
"In other words, Brother Ouyang actually doesn't know Jiang Cheng's true life experience at all, right?"
"Here, so what."
"In my opinion, this Jiang Cheng is an out-and-out evil monster." Huang Pu said.
"How can the leader of the Huangpu Sect speak so freely?"
"Haha, what happened in the arena that day was clearly seen by all the martial arts comrades present. That power is not something ordinary humans can possess." Huang Pu said.
"What's more, there are Shushan disciples who testified that when Jiang Cheng took action, they also noticed the presence of demons. If Brother Ouyang doesn't believe it, he can go to Shushan to write a book and ask the two Taoist priests at that time to come over. How about that?"
"Although we in the martial arts world are not as good as Shushan in mystical skills, we are still from a well-known family, and it is our duty to eradicate demons. We must not just sit idly by," Shangguan Xin said.
"If Jiang Cheng is really a monster, Brother Ouyang still hopes that you can kill your relatives out of justice."
"Brother Ouyang, the so-called knowing people but not their hearts, I'm afraid demons are used to confuse people's hearts. Maybe Jiang Cheng has used some evil tricks to hide his identity, and now that the matter has been exposed, he killed and silenced him." Huang Pu said.
"Brother Huangpu, I guess he has his own plan on how to deal with the affairs within Brother Ouyang's sect. Besides, the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so it must be inappropriate to infer this, right?" said the leader of the sect Lin.
"Haha, I'm sorry. I'm just talking about this pitfall. As for how to make a decision, it depends on Brother Ouyang. I believe that Brother Ouyang, as the leader of the alliance, will definitely convince his martial arts colleagues."
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Huangpu. Jiang Cheng is no longer my disciple, but the crime of murder cannot be rashly pinned on his head." Leader Ouyang said.
"Zhejian Villa will definitely do its best to investigate this matter, and will also send a letter to Shushan to investigate this matter clearly."
"This is best. We will also help find clues and hope this matter will be ended as soon as possible," Huangpu said.
"It's already getting late. Please take a rest early, leader, and don't overwork yourself. I won't disturb you later and take my leave."
After Shangguan and Huangpu left.
"You guys go down and rest." Ouyang asked his disciples to go down.
"Although what Huangpu Sect Master just said may not be out of congratulations, this matter is also extremely difficult. If it is not handled properly, it may not be able to convince the world's martial arts world, and it will even make people use the topic to their advantage." Sect Master Lin said: "We are the four major families.
Your reputation must not be damaged."
"I have only been the leader of the martial arts alliance for a few days, and so many changes have happened. It is not easy to take this position."
"Now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in worrying. Brother Ouyang really has no clue about the murder of his disciple?"
the other side.
"It's already dark. Let's go to Mokou and set off with everyone." Lin Xiao said.
"Do you think there will be something you want here?" Lingbo said.
"It's not clear right now."
"Why don't you ever ask me what I'm looking for?" Mr. Long said.
I once asked you whether the things you were looking for could harm people's lives and bring disaster to the world, and you said that many people's lives depended on them, right?
Lingbo said.
"Not bad." Mr. Long said.
"In that case, why should I ask?" Ling Bo said.
"You two have been waiting for a long time," Lin Xiao said.
"Now that everyone is here, let's set off."
"Wait a minute," the landlady said.
"Are you looking for the king's soul?"
"Wouldn't this cause trouble and lead to greater disaster?"
"Hey, even if you leave it alone, you're still waiting to die here, right?" Miss Xia said.
"Don't worry, boss lady, this is entirely our idea. When we see him, we will make it clear to him that this matter has nothing to do with you." Murong Lan said.
