Chapter 97 Secret Martial Arts - Reaching for the Stars!
"Wei Wuxie's real real name is Duan Wuxie!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Yuanming's heart skipped a beat.
And it was at this moment that he, who was used to holding his breath when he was alone with Ge Wanshan, uncontrollably relaxed his mouth and nose and took a shallow breath.
Oops!!!
Duan Yuanming was horrified!
He didn't feel anything strange with this shallow breath, but the high-level training from the Duan family made him instinctively sense that something was wrong!
He believed that he might have been tricked.
For example, the Ecstasy Incense can make people in the Tongmai Realm lose all their power, such as the Huoshen Powder that can make the thoughts on the Tongmai state disperse, and there are many more...
They are all colorless, tasteless and soundless things.
Damn it!
Why?!
Why would Ge Wanshan take action against him?
Did Ge Wanshan guess something?!
……No!
No matter what Ge Wanshan guessed, it was impossible for him to know his relationship with Wu Xie.
The most likely possibility is that the water ghost is...but the question is, where did the water ghost know this?
Even within the Duan family, only a few core people know about this matter!
Unless the water ghost can quietly lurk beside him, and for at least half a year, because the last time he contacted Wuxie was half a year ago... No, there is no need at all!
I went to the prison last night and mentioned it to the retainer!
In the flash of lightning, Duan Yuanming thought a lot, and except that he still believed that Xu Chong was a water ghost and did not understand how the water ghost could get up close without being discovered, he almost completely restored the truth.
Including the water ghost pretending to be Wei Wuxie and trading with Ge Wanshan as a member of the Duan family!
At this point, it is obvious what Ge Wanshan is going to do next - kill himself and frame Duan Wuxie, who has died long ago!
If it was the Ecstasy Incense, it would be fine. I still had dozens of breaths to deal with it before I completely lost my strength.
If it's Huoshen Powder...
Compared with elixirs such as Ecstasy, which have a slower onset, Huoshen Powder is a 'magic medicine'. As long as he inhales even a tiny bit, or at most a few breaths, his thoughts will be completely confused.
By then, let alone his level 10 Tongmai, even if he is above Tongmai, he will only be at the mercy of others!
Moreover, no traces could be found on the body afterwards.
No! You can’t bet!
This must be Huoshen Powder!
At this thought, Duan Yuanming suddenly burst out with his final strength, and his whole body rose into the sky.
yes.
If he has been hit by Huoshen Powder, it will be too late to leave at this time, because after a few breaths, he will still fall into that state of being at the mercy of others.
Don't forget, he is the prince of Zhanghua Mansion and the second son of the Duan family!
As long as he rushes out of the inner hall and exposes himself to others within these few breaths, who dares to kill him?!
The water ghost might dare, but then he would have to abandon his current identity, not to mention the huge losses, and it might not kill him.
Because Ge Wanshan will never let it go.
As long as he rushes out of the inner hall and exposes himself to others, Ge Wanshan will no longer have the conditions to silently kill people and frame Wei Wuxie.
In that case, Ge Wanshan would rush forward to protect himself!
Otherwise, if he died not far away, and Ge Wanshan clearly had the ability to save him but failed to do so, then no matter who the murderer was, he would not be able to escape the Duan family's wrath!
As his body rose up, Duan Yuanming took advantage of his last moment to catch Ge Wanshan's stunned expression in his eyes, and then there was a loud bang.
He crashed through the first-floor roof.
Then comes the second and third floors.
...Boom, boom!
Ge Wanshan was stunned.
To be honest, he really didn't expect Duan Yuanming's reaction to be so quick.
In his opinion, almost as soon as those words were spoken, before even taking two breaths, Duan Yuanming exploded with the power of the tenth level of Tongmai and shot up.
But because of his shock at that moment, he had already lost the best opportunity to intercept.
When the roof on the first floor was breached, he knew that he had no chance to kill Duan Yuanming... Not only that, he had to try his best to save it?
Ge Wanshan's mood plummeted to the bottom, and he rose to the sky in annoyance, shouting at the same time.
"There is an assassin! Protect Mr. Fu!"
This loud roar, which Ge Wanshan exerted all his strength, sounded almost at the same time as the third roar of the roof being broken through, covering the government office for several miles.
All the government officials rushed to the inner hall when the first roar sounded. When they heard this roar, they used all their strength to speed up.
Also hearing this sound was Xu Chong, who had just absorbed the spiritual source from the corpse after confirming that there was nothing unusual in Xie Changkong's last vision.
"Damn it!"
In an instant, Xu Chong appeared outside the prison and saw Duan Yuanming who had just broken through the roof in the distance.
"What is Ge Wanshan doing?"
Xu Chong looked ugly, but he didn't panic at all.
If Duan Yuanming chose to break through horizontally, he really had no solution for a while, but he chose to break through vertically, exposing himself to high altitude.
"In that case...Zhe Fengshou, add it to me!"
In addition to what assassin Zhong Dahe provided, as well as the accumulation of more than half a month, and 'Xie Changkong''s 16 points, his spiritual source has broken through to a record high of 35 points.
At this time, a thought occurred, and most of it was gone in an instant.
Zhefengshou (reaching the pinnacle) - Zhefengshou (unparalleled in ancient times and the present)...reaching for the stars (comprehension)!
Reaching for the Stars has been directly promoted to the fourth level!
At this time, Duan Yuanming still maintained an upward trend.
"Secret Martial Arts - Reach for the Stars!"
Xu Chong uttered a few words lightly and stretched out his hand to explore.
His target is the towering green pine located in the northeast of the inner hall!
Dou Tianyuan used the power of Tongmai and the lowest level of star-picking. With only one leaf, he could pierce the trunk of the tree even though it was so far away.
So if you use a higher level of strength, a higher level of star-catching, and a stronger object, can you kill people just by collecting them?
Xu Chong has thought about this problem for a long time and concluded that it is highly likely.
Therefore, in this move to reach the stars, he used all the strength in his body during the "collection" stage.
The results came out quickly.
The green pines in the northeast direction of the inner hall, starting from the highest treetops, suddenly bent in the direction of Xu Chong.
It looked as if the green pine came to life and bowed its head to the southwest.
If it were normal times, it would be an anecdote that people would talk about.
Unfortunately, today, at this moment, there is one more person in the direction where Qingsong bows his head.
Duan Yuanming.
At this time, Duan Yuanming had just climbed to the highest point, and the Huoshen Powder had already begun to take effect. He was at a moment when his old strength had been exhausted and his new strength could not be lifted up at all.
He could only watch helplessly as he was shrouded in shadow, and then his body was pierced by countless branches, and continued to be torn apart under the subsequent force.
——Crack!!
The trunk of the green pine tree could not withstand such a degree of bending, and suddenly broke in the middle, carrying the broken corpse hanging on the treetop, and smashed onto the roof of the inner hall of the government office.
What a coincidence.
Ge Wanshan had just jumped to the third level at this time.
Before he could continue across the roof, a large black shadow shrouded down.
All kinds of broken tiles, beams, columns, and floors slammed into him. As soon as they came into contact, Ge Wanshan vomited blood, and then he continued to fall under the pressure of the subsequent force.
Amid the shaking and roaring, the entire inner hall collapsed completely.
Ge Wanshan and Duan Yuanming's broken corpse were buried deep underground.
Xu Chong, the instigator, did not know this at all.
At this time, his sternum was completely broken, and he fell in the same position as before in the exact same posture.
Screams, footsteps, shouts... Starting from the government office, the commotion gradually spread to the entire Zhanghua City.
And all of this has nothing to do with Xu Chong.
The only thing he can do now is play his role as a victim.
It wasn't until half an hour later that someone discovered Xie Changkong, whose body and head were separated, and Xu Chong, who was in a coma.
Not surprisingly, as one of the possible insiders, Xu Chong received good medical treatment. He was given various bone-setting and stomach medicines, and after one operation, the sky turned completely dark.
And Xu Chong also chose to wake up at the right time.
"Cough cough cough..."
Following a series of coughs, Xu Chong opened his eyes.
This is an unfamiliar room. Judging from the layout and specifications, it should be a residence for government officials.
——Squeak.
The door was opened and a middle-aged man walked in, "You finally woke up."
"Are you... He Tongzhi?"
Xu Chong asked tentatively.
He only had a brief understanding of government officials, and the only time he met them was when he went to the inner hall to find Ge Wanshan yesterday.
"Exactly."
He Tongzhi nodded without any expression.
After receiving recognition, Xu Chong struggled to get up, but as soon as he made a move, the injury on his chest was affected, and he grinned in pain.
"Just lie down."
He Tongzhi moved a stool and sat down next to the bed: "I have a few questions to ask you, and you need to answer them truthfully."
"Excuse me, sir."
Xu Chong nodded while lying down.
"Do you still remember what happened before you fell into coma?"
He Tongzhi asked.
"Before coma?"
Confusion appeared on Xu Chong's face. He looked down at his chest and said, "I remember, I was interrogating the Taiping Dao rebel."
"Just remember."
He Tongzhi nodded, "From the time you entered the cell until you were injured and unconscious, tell me everything you said, did, heard, and saw."
"That's it, okay."
Xu Chong agreed, thought for a moment and then spoke: "After I entered the cell, the rebel named Xie Changkong spoke first and said, 'It's you again? Is there no one available in the court for sending a small role like you?'
…”
In this way, Xu Chong didn't hide a word and told everything that happened after he entered the cell in detail.
During this period, He Tongzhi's eyes trembled continuously, and his body unconsciously leaned back a little, trying to get further away from Xu Chong.
Letting prisoners eat their own flesh...not to mention how cruel it is, is this a bit against the law?
Xu Chong had no idea about this and thought to himself: "'Really! But I know some things about Wei Wuxie! Among them,' I just heard this, and I don't know anything else after that."
After finishing speaking, before He Tongzhi could speak, Xu Chong continued: "Don't you mean that he has been completely restricted, and he is worse than an ordinary person? How can he make me, a first-level Tongmai, lose consciousness in an instant... If he wants to
Kill me, will I die now?"
His deep dissatisfaction was palpable, and he almost started to curse.
He Tongzhi frowned and said coldly: "Xie Changkong is dead."
"If you're dead, you're dead...what? Dead?!"
Xu Chong's eyes suddenly widened.
After a moment of shock, he said to himself: "It seems that it's not that he didn't want to kill me, but that someone saved me? Is it Lord Fu or Lord Qianhu?"
"No one will save you."
He Tongzhi shook his head and said calmly: "The prince is also dead."
"What?!!!"
This time, Xu Chong's voice was so loud that it could be heard outside the building.
But it stopped abruptly halfway through, followed by a series of coughs and painful groans.
"Someone from the Blood Guard will take you back soon."
He Tongzhi stood up, pushed the door open and walked out.
Not long after, I saw Ge Wanshan in the main hall.
"How about it?"
Ge Wanshan's bloody robe was slightly damaged, but he didn't seem to be seriously injured.
"He doesn't know anything."
He Tongzhi sighed, "The murderer didn't seem to want him to find out anything, so he knocked him unconscious before he could speak."
"Is this so..."
Ge Wanshan breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned, "Why didn't you kill him?"
"I've tested his injuries. It was probably a casual blow from the seventh to eighth level of Tongmai. His ribs almost pierced his heart."
He Tongzhi explained and asked with some confusion: "How could Master Qianhu doubt him?"
"It's not that I doubt him, it's just that Mr. Fujun's death was so strange that I can't leave anything out."
Ge Wanshan shook his head to hide it, and said with some fear: "The method of controlling a big tree to kill people is simply, simply..."
To be honest, if it weren't for the magic weapon blood robe he was wearing, although he would not have died, serious injuries would definitely be inevitable.
"Master Qianhu, don't worry too much. The garrison station and the blood-clothed guards have surrounded the county government. That person will not dare to show up again."
He Tongzhi comforted him.
Don't dare?
Ge Wanshan does not agree with these two words.
He Tongzhi only had official status, so he didn't understand what that method meant.
But he understands.
It is very likely that it is above Tongmai...and above!
Replacing not daring with not knowing would still be the same.
Ge Wanshan waved his hand, "Master Fu Jun has died. I guess that person will never come out again regardless of whether he dares or not. What is more important now is...how do we explain to the court and the Duan family."
"There is no other way but to report the truth truthfully."
He Tongzhi sighed melancholy, "Whether it is the prefect of a prefecture or the status of a direct descendant of the Duan family, this matter cannot be concealed."
"It seems that's all that's left..."
Ge Wanshan also sighed.
that's all.
Zhanghuafu City has entered a state of martial law throughout the city.
The government office, the blood-clad guards, and the garrison all work together to patrol, stand guard, and guard the city all the time.
The bodies of ‘Xie Changkong’ and Duan Yuanming were preserved as much as possible in the original condition before their death.
The prison and inner hall, as well as the two crime scenes, have also been kept as they were.
The murder weapon, the green pine, was tightly guarded and no one was allowed to approach it.
Just waiting for someone to come from the capital.
