Under the urging of the cultivators, Huayue City sent more people to investigate the Gu family and turned their home upside down.
They discovered a very deep dungeon. This dungeon was hidden in the basement of the Gu family's residence using a special formation. They didn't discover it at first, but they discovered it only after experienced formation cultivators went there.
.
When the people from the Mirror Hall opened the dungeon, they were all shocked by what they saw.
There are some monks imprisoned in the dungeon. They are wearing heavy chains and have frightened faces. These monks were obviously kidnapped and brought here. In just a few days, they were tortured into this miserable state.
In addition, there is a large pit in the center of the dungeon, with some corpses piled in it, which are the murdered monks.
The monks at the Mirror Hall invited medical practitioners to examine the living people, and found that some monks had lost their spiritual roots, which meant that they could no longer practice and became disabled people.
Some monks do not have single spiritual roots. Some of their spiritual roots have also been dug out, and the remaining spiritual roots have not had time to be dug out.
As a result, these people have become disabled, like disabled people. Although they can still use weak spiritual energy to nourish their bodies, they can no longer practice cultivation.
Tang Yue was also in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion. He was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help asking: "The Gu family is depriving people of their spiritual roots?"
The elder from Xianyuan Mountain also exclaimed: "Where is the disciple from Xianyuan Mountain?"
Lord Nangong said directly, "Mingjingtang examined Qi Ruowei and found that her spiritual roots had been tempered by external forces and her quality had become better. When Mingjingtang tortured the Gu family, many people said that as soon as she entered the Gu family, she
Many people were invited to the ancestral hall before they knew her, and she stayed there for a long time. After that, the quality of her spiritual roots improved, and she was adopted as an adopted daughter. After our medical examination, it was indeed
Use the peeled spiritual roots to temper the spiritual roots."
Ji Chongguang said: "What you said makes sense. At present, no disciples from major sects or major clans have had any trouble."
This is the unfairness of the world of immortality.
Nangong Changfeng thought for a moment and finally made a decision: "Huayue City will continue to hold Dharma events, and at the same time we will do our best to ensure the safety of all participants. I hope everyone can help Huayue City and organize it with us
A specialized investigation team will conduct an in-depth investigation into the affairs of the Gu family, find the mastermind behind the scenes, and find the forces that are secretly threatening as soon as possible to avenge the dead disciples and ensure the safety of the participating monks. I wonder if you all agree with my proposal?"
The investigation team continues to pursue clues, while the patrol team is responsible for daily patrols and strengthening the security of Huayue City. This arrangement is much more appropriate.
In the hall there are families who are acquainted with the Nangong family, as well as elders from famous families.
Regarding this matter, only a few people in the Gu family, including the head of the family and the elders, knew the inside story. Some juniors had no idea that such evil things were being done in the family.
The heads of several major factions discussed with the people in charge of Huayue City and finally confirmed that a special investigation team and patrol team would be formed.
After the investigation reaches this point, the Gu family will definitely be punished, but the people of Huayue City still need to investigate clearly where the Gu family got the evil method of depriving others of their spiritual roots.
Most of the monks in the hall were the people in charge who led the team to Huayue City. After hearing the truth of the whole incident, their faces became solemn. They all understood that if the real mastermind behind the scenes was not caught, the matter of seizing the spiritual root would be over.
It will definitely happen again.
After assigning tasks, people from various sects left the city lord's mansion.
Seeing the city lord's hesitation, Long Yuyang knew that this matter must be something serious, "If there is any reason, the city lord can just tell me."
Moreover, they did not find the stripped spiritual roots in the Gu family's mansion, otherwise they would still be able to find a way to get the spiritual roots back.
Several managers who were close to Huayue City first expressed their full support for Huayue City to pursue the investigation to the end. Three Mountains and One Palace also agreed, and the rest of the people also agreed after seeing this situation.
Huayue City's Shu Shu Exchange Conference is held every thirteen years. It has a history of thousands of years. It stopped here. How can he explain to his ancestors and how to explain to Xianyuan Mountain?
If the person behind the scenes is not found, then the matter is not over.
Why did they suddenly have the courage to kidnap so many monks and deprive them of so many spiritual roots, and who were they using them for?
There are only a few dozen people in the Gu family, and in just a few days they have kidnapped nearly a hundred monks, far more than their family needs.
A sect leader who was close to the Nangong family said: "The world of immortal cultivation is full of crises, and there are accidents everywhere. We immortal cultivators are fighting against the sky, and we have to go through a lot of hardships before we can make progress. If this happens, we will be afraid."
, if you return to the mountain gate, I’m afraid no one will be able to enter the country with any cultivation from now on.”
The elder calmed down after hearing what he said. Finally, nothing happened to the person he brought out. "Take me to see him quickly."
Long Yuyang did not leave, however. He asked to talk to Nangong City Lord alone, "I wonder if the City Lord can find out whether Qi Ruowei was unjustly accused?"
Everyone felt that what he said was very reasonable. Everyone already has a lifespan that far exceeds that of ordinary people. What they pursue is to make progress in cultivation and one day achieve enlightenment, so that their practice is not in vain.
Tang Yue listened to their words, thoughtfully, and whispered to Senior Brother Ji: "No one in the Three Mountains and One Palace has had any trouble. I'm afraid the Gu family doesn't dare to provoke the disciples of the big sect."
How could you give up the opportunity to improve your skills just because you are afraid of risks? The monks present all said that they could not cancel the event because of this matter, as that would only increase the arrogance of the person in charge.
Even if the evildoer succeeds temporarily and takes advantage of the rich disciples, they will be tracked down by their elders and some means will be used to prevent them from reincarnation forever.
Nangong Changfeng was a little angry, he knew such remarks would appear.
Most of the sinister people in the world of cultivating immortals dare not attack famous disciples. If they do so, not only will the risk be high and they will be easily killed by the high-level magic weapons possessed by the disciples, but they will also attract powerful people in their families to kill them all.
Nangong Changfeng sighed helplessly, "I tried my best. Although Qi Ruowei said that she never knew what the Gu family did, it is true that she invited so many monks on the street to enter the dojo, so it is difficult to exclude her.
Suspicion. What's more..."
A monk said: "Such a shocking thing happened in Huayue City, and it was aimed at the spiritual roots of young monks. If any young man is attacked by this poison, his life will be ruined. This Huayue City Dharma event is still suitable.
Going down?"
"Don't worry, this Immortal Mountain disciple has many defensive magic weapons that the Gu family has been unable to open, so he was relatively safe when we went there and there were no accidents."
Long Yuyang was a little shocked that there was such an evil method in the world, using the stolen spiritual roots to improve the quality of the spiritual roots.
"But Ruowei said that she didn't know what the Gu family did, nor did she know that they deprived others of their spiritual roots to temper hers. Isn't it unreasonable to blame her for the mistake?"
Nangong Changfeng sighed, "Having said that, the sects whose disciples died would not agree to let her go. If it weren't for her, those young talents would never have suffered such a murderous attack. As the city lord, I cannot disobey.
With the opinions of so many sects, this suspected woman was let go."
Long Yuyang knew that the city lord was telling the truth, so he had to leave first and then make plans, "My nephew knows, thank you city lord.
