Chapter 61: The Secret Whistle of the Ocean of Storms
"Back then, Ancient God Xiaotian cut off the passages from Cathay to other worlds. Now it seems that those passages may be the star field teleportation towers leading to Baiji's lair. The teleportation towers were destroyed, and the Baiji tribe cannot travel to and from Cathay at will.
, this unknown little corner of the universe was quickly forgotten.”
"The peace lasted until 100,000 years ago, which was the second time the gods were temporary. According to Cangwu's recollection, a Baiji tribesman came at that time, and the leader was called the Holy Emperor. In order to enslave the creatures of Cathay, he
He single-handedly created the Star Palace. However, the guardians who followed the Ancient God Xiaotian did not die. Naturally, they did not allow Cathay to be controlled by Baiji. A fierce battle broke out between the two sides. The guardians back then were much stronger than they are now.
.So the gods cannot unify Cathay with an overwhelming advantage."
"In the last battle, the leader of Baiji, the Holy Emperor, released his powerful power based on the immortal way of heaven, while the guardian inspired the fighting spirit of the ancient god Xiaotian. This battle lasted for a whole day and night, and finally the Holy Emperor
His head was chopped off and buried in Sleepy Hollow. It was guarded by guardians for generations. Cang Wu didn’t know why the guardians were looking at that head. I once asked my sixth uncle, and he didn’t know the reason for this either.
Yes, he has never even seen the head."
"After the two sides fought, the Star Palace was severely damaged, and the guardian's strength was no longer what it was before, so neither side continued to fight. After that, for a long period of time, no divine envoy came to the world until
Four hundred years ago, Taiyin came to Cathay, and he commanded Xinggong to destroy Mo Qilin. At the same time, he killed the most powerful guardian at that time, who was the head of Tianxuan Sect at that time, Old Man Tianxu. About
This matter has caused a rift between my master and my third uncle, and you should be aware of this matter."
"But Yi Taiyin didn't stay in Cathay back then. After doing these two things, he left in a hurry. Just when everyone thought that no divine messenger would come to the world in the short term, he came back again. This time it doesn't seem to be the case.
I don’t plan to leave soon, as it is very likely that Baiji’s enslavement of Cathay will be restored until death.”
After Zhuge Jingyu heard this, he couldn't help sighing. He said: "Although I have speculated most of them through various historical materials, but after all, they are not as detailed as you described. In Cang Wu's memory, is there any way to deal with Bai Ji?
What about the clan’s methods?”
Chen Yunsheng shook his head helplessly and said: "I'm afraid not. The victory he witnessed was caused by the battle spirit of Ancient God Xiaotian. From this point of view, only Ancient God Xiaotian has ever defeated the Baiji tribe.
No human being can do it. Besides, that old tree is not proficient in fighting, so the fighting situation back then is extremely vague in his memory."
Zhuge Jingyu leaned against the stone pillar behind him and said helplessly: "So how to defeat Etai Yin can only rely on our imagination."
Chen Yunsheng nodded and said: "Wu Nian said that Master Tianyuan once told him that I can kill Etai Yin, but I don't know the specific method. Is this a consolation?"
…
The Ocean of Tempest is the southernmost tip of the Sky Mountain Range adjacent to the ocean. It is covered with clouds and thunder and lightning all year round, so it is called the Ocean of Tempest. Luo Zhiqing didn't spend much time finding the secret whistle that Qianlong had placed on the shore of the Ocean of Tempest. The secret whistle
There is a gap in the steep cliff. From the outside, it looks no different from the thousands of ordinary rock gaps on the cliffs of the Ocean of Storms. If Yuchixue had not told Luo Zhiqing the characteristics, it would have been almost impossible to find this place.
of.
Passing through long slender cracks and rows of weathered basalt, in the deepest part of the rock crack, Luo Zhiqing and others found two corpses. He reached out and touched the corpses and said: "They have been dead for a long time."
It’s been. At least five days.”
Xu Bailu squatted down, looked at the wounds on the corpses, and said: "One was stabbed in the back, and the other was wounded in the chest. It was clean and neat, and it was done by a master."
Yang Biluo covered her nose and said: "It seems that these two people are just foundation-building monks. How can you conclude that the person who killed them was a master."
Without waiting for Xu Bailu's answer, Luo Zhiqing said first: "You know very little about Qianlong. People who can enter Qianlong have one of the biggest characteristics, which is that they are good at hiding and surviving. They usually appear in the most dangerous places, but they
He is the one who has lived the longest.”
Fan Yangluo shook his head and expressed confusion: "Only masters can live longer. I really can't imagine that a foundation-building monk can live longer than a golden elixir monk in a dangerous situation. In addition, these words are inherently meaningless.
It’s inconsistent, since they are lurking in dangerous places, why must they be the ones who live the longest?”
Luo Zhiqing said: "This has something to do with Qianlong's identity. They are good at spying, lurking, detecting, sabotaging and many other shady things. Take intelligence as an example, if you try hard to find out the information, but cannot bring it out,
Isn’t it all in vain? So the first thing people in Qianlong need to learn is to survive. In addition, whether a person can survive has less to do with his cultivation than you think. There is a saying that is right,
If you don't seek death, you won't die. The monks of Qianlong are precisely the people who are least able to seek death."
Yang Biluo said: "It's useless to say all this. Now the two of them are dead. Who is the murderer?"
Xu Bailu touched the rugged wall, and then said: "The killer found this cave easily. His goal was very clear and he did not hesitate. From this point of view, the killer must be proficient in detection. Moreover,
He knew very well who he wanted to kill. The ability to find his opponent from thousands of identical gaps was no small feat. In addition, these two people seemed to have been killed with a knife.
In fact, there were two. From the point of view of the knife edge, the first person was killed by the right-hand knife, and the second person was killed by the left-hand knife."
"The first person was stabbed in the back, which means they didn't know that the killer had entered the hole. After the first person was killed, the second person just wanted to resist, but was killed by his opponent from the front. In addition, the killer used
It's a short sword. Judging from the depth of the blade, it's less than a foot long. It's somewhat similar to Master's sword."
Yang Biluo tilted her head, and after listening to Xu Bailu's thorough analysis, she continued, "Could it be that Master Chen did it?"
As soon as she spoke, everyone was speechless. Luo Zhiqing looked at the sky, Xu Bailu frowned, and the Fan brothers were extremely shy. Xu Bailu said: "Miss Yang has a really rich imagination."
Yang Biluo chuckled and said, "I see you guys are too serious. It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously."
Fan Yang said: "The problem now is how to find the murderer."
Fan Ming said: "It has been five or six days since these two monks were killed. Maybe the murderer has left long ago. I am curious, are there any forces near the Ocean of Storms? Hasn't the Tianqiong Sect already formed an alliance with most of the forces in the Tianqiong Mountains?
Yet?"
Luo Zhiqing said: "If there is any larger force nearby, the country of Zhang Han is less than five hundred miles to the northwest. Although their power is not very strong, they still have two or three masters."
"Zhang Hanguo?" Xu Bailu frowned and said, "I heard Zhuge Chief Minister say that a few months ago, he had sent people to reach an alliance with Zhang Hanguo. They joined us in resisting Xinggong. How could they do this? What about the self-destruction of the Great Wall?”
"If it wasn't them, is it possible that it was done by people from Star Palace? They sent a vanguard to sneak into the southern part of Qingzhou, and then found a hidden place to set up a teleportation array to meet the follow-up army from Star Palace." Fan Yang said.
Yang Biluo echoed: "It's very possible. The two Qianlong monks discovered this information, and when they wanted to report it, they discovered it and killed them here. If you explain it this way, everything is logical."
"If that's the case, there must be a Star Palace base nearby. The murderer hasn't left yet. We'd better find out all this before going back." Luo Zhiqing said.
Xu Bailu nodded and said: "Senior Luo is right, but the area near the Tempest Ocean is very vast, so we'd better split up. After discovering the clues, we can find a place to meet."
Luo Zhiqing pondered for a moment and said: "Although it is true, it seems a bit dangerous."
Yang Biluo said: "Brother Luo, what are you afraid of when you are so capable? We just promise not to act rashly."
Luo Zhiqing nodded and said: "Okay, let's allocate it like this. Bai Lu and I will act alone, and Bi Luo and the Fan brothers will form a group and act together. If we find clues, we will meet here. We must not act alone. I understand. ?"
Yang Biluo flattened her mouth, feeling reluctant in her heart but not daring to say anything. She knew that although Luo Zhiqing looked gentle on the surface, he had wolf blood flowing through him. Whatever words he said would offend him. There is no good fruit to eat.
After the distribution, the three groups each chose a direction. Yang Biluo and the Fan brothers chose the northwest, which is the direction of Zhang Hanguo. Luo Zhiqing and Xu Bailu chose the north and northeast respectively. After everyone discussed it, they quickly separated. .
Xu Bailu's direction was northeast. He kept flying forward in this direction. He saw that the mountains and forests under his feet were becoming more and more dangerous, and tigers, leopards, and wolves loomed between the forests and springs from time to time. He dropped the light and walked instead. The mountains and forests here were extremely dangerous. It is so dense that only a small amount of sunlight can penetrate the dense forest, so even though it is daytime, the surroundings are still eerie.
The more Xu Bailu walked forward, the darker the sunlight became. In the end, the visual range was no more than three feet away. From time to time, the roar of wild beasts came from the forest, which made people a little uneasy. Just when Xu Bailu wanted to escape from this dense forest Suddenly, a strong gust of wind hit him from behind.
Xu Bailu turned sideways, like an arrow full of strings, and retreated backwards. A white light swept across, and a dozen big trees in front fell suddenly. The flying knife circled in the air, and stabbed back again, along the way. He knocked down two big trees, approaching Xu Bailu.
Xu Bailu moved his fingers slightly, and the White Dragon Sword shot out of the air. This sword was once broken, but Cao Zijian repaired it with his own hands. The material and appearance also improved to a higher level. The White Dragon Sword blocked the white light, and the two weapons were entangled in each other. When they came together, they let out a roar like a dragon's roar.
