Even with the most advanced airship at full power, Xu Zhi only arrived at Yunling City six hours later.
From the middle of the night when I received the secret report, it has already been the dawn of the sun.
At this time, Yunling Academy has only been open for one month.
Every spring or autumn, some large-scale activities are held from time to time for students to hone their skills.
It is still about conquering Mount Gaoli, and students have several routes.
Different routes correspond to different terrains and have different troubles.
The most dangerous route where Locke's body was found was also the route Xu Zhi took back then.
Xu Zhi and others killed poisonous scorpions on this road, but they did not make it to the second half.
Returning to a familiar area, Xu Zhi even saw the poisonous place he was familiar with.
After crossing the mountain, there were already more people.
Three-color cloths were hung up in many places for security purposes, and the Inspection Department was stationed at a distance. Xu Zhi even saw Tuo Guhong in the center of the field and Song Jingzhao in the distance.
Tuo Guhong, who inspects the Sizhong Mansion, is also the candidate Xu Zhi wants to promote this year to go to Ganzi Province to appoint the Shangfu.
Song Jingzhao inspected the Si Shaofu, and Xu Zhi originally visited the person who invited him to come out.
Not to mention the relationship between Tuo Guhong and Song Jingzhao, Song Jingzhao is an extremely powerful character.
In the past few years in the Southern Yunnan Province, she stirred up many storms. From top to bottom, she organized many officials, squires, financial groups, aristocratic families, and practitioners.
This makes Locke Ka Fai very busy every day, and he is constantly cleaning up.
When Xu Zhi looked over, he saw Song Jingzhao cupping his fists and performing a simple salute.
"How is it?" Xu Zhi asked.
"The deceased was badly decomposed, with sores overflowing all over his body. His face was difficult to see clearly, but he was wearing the clothes of Luo Shangfu."
"It has been at least three days since his death."
After hearing Song Jingzhao's report, Xu Zhi calmed down and immediately stepped into the sealed area.
At this time, Tuo Guhong was carefully examining the corpse with the help of tools. When he saw Xu Zhi coming, he just nodded slightly and fell into judgment again.
Xu Zhi began to inspect the surrounding area.
Hundreds of venomous snakes and countless mosquitoes were scattered everywhere, apparently infected by the sword or the toxins leaked from the corpse, and eventually died.
It is difficult to see the traces of the fight clearly on the field.
The battle will most likely occur in the air and end with failure on the ground.
The Zhenyi sword is extremely sharp and contains all kinds of strange poisons. It is a murderous sword.
But this Grandmaster's weapon is not indestructible.
Xu looked straight at the broken edge, which was obviously broken by gravity.
It is difficult for ordinary grandmaster's soldiers to achieve this level. They are either the best to the top grandmaster's soldiers, or they are great grandmaster's soldiers.
Only when similar weapons hit each other can the sword be broken.
This makes Xu Zhi prefer the latter.
While Xu Zhi was thinking, he saw two points of light on the horizon getting closer and closer. When they fell, the figures of Yan Xuankong and Yan Xingxia appeared one after another.
"Is it really Locke?" Yan Xingxia asked.
"People don't know, but the sword is Yin Yi."
With just one glance, Yan Xuankong could see the sword that Xu Zhi had exchanged.
He still doesn't know what happened with the Xuyun Sword transaction, and why the sword ended up here. Yan Xuankong was a little confused about the situation for a while.
"If there is no second body of ten thousand poisons to replace it, this will be Luo Shangfu."
After a while, Tuo Guhong stood up.
His fingers were faintly red, and he circulated his inner energy several times before slowly fading away.
After experiencing Wang Dong's fake death incident, everyone became suspicious of death, which also made everyone's testing more stringent.
"He is Locke Ka Fai," Song Jingzhao said from a distance outside the court: "Three masters possess the second body of ten thousand poisons, but there are traces of my penetrating nails on his shoulder bones. No one can do this."
imitate."
"Have you ever had conflicts?" Xu Zhi turned around and asked.
"He cares too much about me," Song Jingzhao said, "I was so angry that I gave it to him. Who knows why he was completely unprepared. I didn't take it for him later. He took it off himself, leaving a mark.
"
Song Jingzhao had a bad temper and was unruly. Xu Zhi did not expect that he would even beat up his boss. Locke's job as a nanny was very hard and risky.
He was about to discipline him, but then he saw the emotion in Song Jingzhao's eyes, and finally relaxed.
He invited him out, and Locke was not killed by Song Jingzhao.
This matter has nothing to do with Song Jingzhao.
An old injury caused by a bone-penetrating nail only made Locke slightly different and did not affect his strength too much.
It's just a matter of competition between masters, and maybe there's only one difference.
This made Xu Zhi sigh slightly.
"Luo Shangfu was pierced through the heart veins with a long sword, which eventually caused his body to lose control and die."
At the same time, Tuo Guhong's autopsy report also came out.
This is a contributing factor to death.
"With the pits and bruises all over his body, didn't he die directly from the poison?" Yan Xuankong said.
"How could a master who used poison be poisoned to death?" Yan Xingxia scolded.
"That's a lot of cases, not to mention it's very common for people who play with knives to be hacked to death."
Yan Xuankong retorted, then flew up like an eagle, constantly checking the surrounding situation, seemingly looking for possible clues.
"We have called people who are good at tracking talents to find the location of the fight..."
"Their cultivation level is so low that they don't even dare to touch the Xueyuan Sword, and they can't fly. How can they find the real clues."
When Song Jingzhao gritted his teeth and said the last sentence, Yan Xingxia's figure also flew up and began to inspect every possible place in the sky.
"A sword pierces the heart..."
"It's the swordsmanship of breaking all the swords with one sword. This man's swordsmanship is very strong. Even Luo Shangfu probably didn't notice when the sword passed through. The sword is too fast and too thin." Situ Xin said, "This is very possible.
It is a sword as thin as a cicada's wing, just like Grandmaster Yan's previous cicada-wing sword."
He is the weakest among the three inspectors in the mansion, but he is the one with the most extensive knowledge of swordsmanship.
Following Situ Xuankong, he knew all kinds of swordsmanship well.
"It should be like this, like this, and then like this, and finally pierced Luo Shangfu's heart."
When Xu Zhi was analyzing, he also held up the sword and performed several slow-motion demonstrations. Although it did not have any power, it was enough to make people understand how to be stabbed and injured.
Tuo Guhong also began to look at the scars on Locke's body.
As he opened the chest and abdomen with his hands, it was only then that the sword wound showed a thin gash.
"Do we have other swordsman masters in Dongyue?" Song Jingzhao asked doubtfully.
Among the five great masters of Dongyue, there are only two great masters of swordsmanship.
One is Song Zhongkai who is in a wheelchair, and the other is Situ Xuankong who is meditating.
Song Jingzhao simply did not believe that his father and Situ Xuankong would come to southern Yunnan to kill Locke Jiahui. This made no sense.
"There was also a blow that hit the Yongjian sword. It didn't seem to be a sword strike. Luo Shangfu should have fled here with the sword. The tip of the sword was lost somewhere."
"Who is it?"
Seeing the dead state of Locke Jiahui and Yan Xuankong and Yan Xingxia invited by Xu Zhi, Song Jingzhao looked at Xu Zhi, as if he wanted to get an answer from him.
"It could be them."
"who?"
When Song Jingzhao asked questions, Xu Zhi stopped talking again.
This was obviously not a place for conversation. Song Jingzhao was filled with questions, and the speculation in her mind became more and more intense.
In the land of Dongyue, there are not only underground queens like her hidden.
There is also a deeper person hidden.
Among them was someone she had been tracking for many years without any results.
Hard teaching.
Just thinking that the Ku Cult had a great master made her feel cold in her heart, making it difficult for her to make any guesses.
"We agreed that when Nan'ao invades, you go and kill Tantai Licheng."
Looking at Locke's body, Xu Zhi felt lost for a moment.
He only felt that while he was in Kyoto, if Locke could be retained and the two parties could have a sincere talk, there might be another outcome.
"After all, I can still save a few people, so I won't need you to use the Zhuyun Sword to suppress the poisonous injuries."
One blow broke the sword, another pierced the heart, but there was also a poison that poisoned Locke to the point of no end, leading to his final death.
However, Locke's body was not destroyed, so it was difficult for the other party to pursue and kill him.
Locke's rebellion succeeded, but failed.
Xu Zhi was making speculations in his mind, constantly simulating the battle objects and the outcome of the battle.
During the surprise attack, Locke had the upper hand, but was seriously injured by the counterattack. When he escaped, he couldn't control his body due to the sword in his heart, and was eventually destroyed by the activated Zimulian Heart Poison.
In the process of fighting behind the scenes of Kujiao, he missed a move.
