The person the masked man mentioned was a general.
It turned out that when the soldiers were searching the mountain, these two masked men captured the general and then hid them. After making sure that there was no more danger, they brought the general to see the Prime Minister.
The masked man said to Prime Minister Lu: "Master Prime Minister, I have arrested a general as you ordered."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Unlock his acupuncture points."
So the masked man threw the general to the ground and unblocked his acupuncture points.
The general woke up.
Although this general has a low official position, he has met Prime Minister Lu.
At this moment, the general was confused. He hurriedly bowed to Prime Minister Lu and said, "I have met the Prime Minister in my humble position."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Let me ask you, what did the golden-faced guard ask you to do?"
The general said: "Before we took action, the golden-faced guards lectured all the generals, saying that the Iron Demon was found hiding in Yunshan, so let us lead people to search carefully. If we find the Iron Demon, we will have achieved great success."
Xiang Lu said: "What else did he say?"
The general said: "The golden-faced guard also said that people from the Prime Minister's Mansion are also hunting for the Iron Demon. If you meet someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion, you must not conflict and report to him immediately."
Prime Minister Lu nodded and asked, "Is there more?"
The general said: "No more."
Prime Minister Lu waved his hand.
So the masked master hit the general on the head with his palm. The general fell to the ground and died. Then the two masked men took the body and disposed of it.
Lu Ba worriedly said to Prime Minister Lu: "Prime Minister, is Lin Yi leading people to search the mountain really to find the Iron Demon or does he have other motives?"
Lu Xiangsi thought for a while and said: "Before Lin Yi entered the mountain, he told his men not to have any conflicts with people from the Lu family and to report him immediately. This shows that Lin Yi is still very cautious and tries not to become enemies with us. And he also
He promised me to ignore him. Besides, I have such a great kindness to him, and my affairs have nothing to do with him. There is really no need for him to break his promise to me. So don't worry, although Lin Yi is now a golden-faced guard
He works for the emperor, but he will not harm our affairs. He is a man of his word."
Lu Ba nodded and said, "Then he is looking for the Iron Demon."
Prime Minister Lu said: "I heard that the emperor gave him a half-month deadline. Within this half-month, whether it was the hell monk or the iron demon, he had to kill someone. So he was anxious, so he led people to Yunshan to search for the iron demon. Now
, just let me see this iron demon with my own eyes."
It turns out that people from Dali Temple inspected the scene of the murder in the city and concluded that the iron-headed weirdo who caused the murder and broke into the prime minister's house and started killing people was the Iron-faced God.
However, Lu Ba reported to Prime Minister Lu that the person who broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion and killed him should not be the Iron-faced God.
Because one of the three mysterious people Beigong Wuyang brought to Yun Palace looked like the Iron-faced God.
So Prime Minister Lu ordered Lu Ba to go to Yun Palace to find out the facts.
The Iron-faced God has been imprisoned in a stone chamber by Bei Gong Wuyang, and has also been anesthetized and immersed in a medicine pool.
Beigong Wuyang told Lu Ba that the person in the medicine pool was the Iron-faced God.
It is the key to resurrecting centuries-old ice corpses.
Moreover, Beigong Wuyang patted his chest and promised that since he brought Tie Mo into the Cloud Palace, Tie Mo has never left the stone room. There is no way he could have gone to the capital to cause bloody incidents.
Lu Ba went back and reported the truth to Prime Minister Lu.
Prime Minister Lu was shocked. He had just learned that the key figure in resurrecting the ice corpse was actually the Iron-faced God of the Three Doomsday Demons. Beigong Wuyang did not confess to him at first, which made Prime Minister Lu very angry.
However, this also excludes the Iron-faced God. He has been imprisoned in the Cloud Palace recently and soaked in the medicine pool. It is impossible for him to cause bloody incidents.
Prime Minister Lu immediately understood that the man who broke into the house and killed people wanted to frame the Iron-faced God as the blame.
Knowing that the key figure in resurrecting the ice corpse was the Iron-faced God, Prime Minister Lu prepared to come and see for himself.
Moreover, he hasn't seen "that person" for many days.
"That man" asked Beigong Wuyang to send a message, saying that he missed him.
And he wanted "that person" even more.
Everything he is doing now is for "that person".
Prime Minister Lu acted extremely cautiously, so he and Lu Ba went into the mountain with a few close associates before dawn.
But before we reached the underground palace in the mountains, we heard people shouting and dogs barking.
It turned out that a large number of officers and soldiers were searching the mountain.
Prime Minister Lu did not enter the underground palace yet, fearing that the entrance to the underground palace would be exposed. The few people first found a hidden place to hide. Then Prime Minister Lu ordered someone to arrest a general to prepare for interrogation afterwards.
Because only the general knows the purpose of this operation better.
Prime Minister Lu is also very patient.
Lin Yi searched for the whole day, and Lu Xiang hid in this place for the whole day.
He didn't show up until he was sure there was no more risk.
Lu Xiang and several people walked northwest in the clouds and mist, climbed over a mountain, and arrived at the bottom of a peak. There was a hidden cave at the bottom of the peak.
A few close followers guarded the entrance of the cave.
Lu Xiang and Lu Ba entered the cave.
The two of them performed the skill of holding a stick of incense in the winding cave.
There are many forks in the place where you pass. If you don't know the right way, you will go wrong.
The exit is in an outer abyss.
Entering the abyss, I feel even more chilled.
There is a triangular boulder standing on the left side of the abyss.
The two came to the back of the stone. Lu Ba tapped the stone wall three times rhythmically, and then the stone wall made a "squeaking" sound, and an entrance appeared.
Lu Xiang and Lu Ba entered the entrance.
In front of them was a stone corridor several feet long.
There are four doors on each side of the stone corridor.
That means there are eight rooms on both sides.
On the stone wall, there is a lamp hanging every one foot.
The entire cold stone corridor is bathed in red light.
Standing at the entrance were four men wrapped in animal skins, all wearing weapons. Seeing Prime Minister Lu coming in person, the four men quickly bowed and saluted.
One of the men shouted: "Prime Minister Lu is here!"
After he finished speaking, the eight doors on both sides of the stone corridor opened almost at the same time. Several men with swords came out of each stone house. There were dozens of people in total. They stood on both sides and saluted Prime Minister Lu.
A tall, bearded man came out of a stone room.
He stepped forward and bowed: "Master Prime Minister, I didn't know you were coming in person, but Lu Wei couldn't go out to greet you. I hope you will forgive me."
Prime Minister Lu said: "Not guilty. As long as you guard this place for me and don't allow anyone to enter or leave lightly, you will have merit."
Lu Wei said: "Don't worry, Prime Minister, no one will be allowed in or out without orders from Lu Jun, Lu Ba and Yao Tong."
Prime Minister Lu nodded with satisfaction and then walked forward.
Lu Ba and Lu Wei followed behind.
When I reached the end, I turned left again and there was no way.
Lu Wei turned on the mechanism, and the stone wall at the end slowly rose.
This stone wall is more than ten feet high, about five feet wide, and three feet thick. It weighs ten thousand kilograms. This is the most important secret door in and out of the underground palace.
When this stone door is lowered, people outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out.
After the stone gate was raised, Lu Xiang and three others filed in.
There is a corridor inside and there are people guarding it.
The three of them passed through two more mysterious iron gates, and then entered the mysterious underground palace.
This underground palace is at the bottom of the mountain and is so hidden that even if Lin Yi led 100,000 people into the mountain to search, let alone two thousand people, he might not be able to find it.
Even if it is discovered, it is difficult to enter.
