When they arrived at Shang Qing Temple, Mu Zixuan parted ways with Ying Feiyang and went to Si Tiantai alone. WwW.AiQuXs.cOM
Si Tiantai was an "alternative" Cultivation sect founded by Yuan Tiangang and supported by the imperial court. Today, it showed its hidden strength. In Si Tiantai, dozens of cultivators in the Dao of Heaven were ready to go, and they were like sharp swords that were about to be unsheathed. None of the people present were mediocre, and none of them were old. Although in terms of strength, they still could not compete with Shang Qing Temple and White Horse Temple, which had a long history and a deep foundation, because of this, they were less stale, and they had more drive to break the old and establish the new.
As soon as Mu Zixuan gave the order, everyone ignored the curfew and rushed out. However, they were not looking for Sun Changji. Instead, they left Luoyang and headed east. Their destination was Spirit Fox Villa.
On the banks of the Luo River, the grass and trees lay low. Under the dim light of night, the scene was as tranquil as a painting. Suddenly, a palm came crashing down, cutting through the night, piercing through the clouds and piercing through the air, majestically arriving. With a crisp sound, this tranquil painting was instantly shattered.
The camouflage barrier disappeared and the Spirit Fox Mountain Manor appeared in front of him!
The interior of the Spirit Fox Manor was originally dark and gloomy. At this moment, the lights inside were lit up one after another, and several tyrannical Demonic Qis soared into the sky. Just a moment ago, it was an elegant and unique manor, but in the blink of an eye, it had become a beast nest filled with danger and hidden killing intents.
In front of the gate, the two stone fox statues guarding the mansion suddenly came to life. Their fur stood on end and their fangs were tightly clenched, ready to tear into each other at the command. Then, the gate opened and an old servant stepped out. He glared at the people of Si Tiantai and shouted, "How dare the human race to invade our Spirit Fox Manor. Are you prepared to break off all relations with the demon race?" The old servant stood in front of the door. His thin and sickly body was like a tall wall that guarded the door. Clearly, this servant was hiding an extraordinary cultivation.
"Intrude? I'm just knocking on the door! " Mu Zixuan walked forward steadily as if she was taking a leisurely stroll. She completely ignored the old servant who was ready to attack and the fox beast who was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. She said, "I shouldn't have bothered you so late at night. But since the guest is already here, why don't you meet her?"
"Haha!" "I've been waiting for a long time. Old Shi, please invite Mr. Mu in." Upon hearing this, the old servant turned his body and led Mu Zixuan inside. Then, he blocked the door again. Clearly, Hu Li had only invited Mu Zixuan inside, so he would not let Si Tiantai and the others pass.
Si Tiantai's men were unperturbed. They stood quietly outside and watched Mu Zixuan enter the villa.
Hu Li sat behind the table. When he saw Mu Zixuan enter, he stretched inelegantly and said, "Mr. Mu is indeed a man of his word. He said that the culprit would be revealed within a day and the answer would be revealed. Tonight, the truth will be revealed. "
Mu Zixuan did not wait for him to greet her. She sat down by herself and said with slight surprise, "Mr. Mu, news travels fast. You already know about what happened not long ago?"
"There's no need to be surprised. Prying into people's private affairs and eavesdropping are the methods that we foxes like to use." Hu Li said in a self-deprecating manner. "On the other hand, Mr. Mu's method of exposing Sun Changji is worthy of admiration!"
"Admiration?" Mu Zixuan laughed and said, "Why don't you say what you mean, Mr. Hu? If this is all I can do, won't I be letting you down?"
Hu Li squinted his eyes and said, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Mu?"
Mu Zixuan did not answer him. She looked at the night sky in the courtyard and said, "It looks like it's not past midnight yet, right?"
"It's just past midnight."
"It's not past midnight yet. It's still counted as within a day. My words are still valid." Mu Zixuan looked at the dark night sky. Her eyes were deeper than the night sky. She said in a powerful voice, "Within a day, the culprit will be revealed and the answer will be revealed!"
— — —
Under the same night sky, there was a different scene in Shang Qing Temple. Ying Feiyang relied on Li Hanguang's order to send out all the people in the sect to look for Sun Changji. Although most of the Shang Qing disciples did not know what was going on, they followed him out obediently. For a moment, the entire Shang Qing Temple was empty. Other than Du Ruhui, who was bedridden after being struck by a sword, and Du Duzhi, who was delirious after being burned by the Five Stones Powder, there were only a few young Taoist children and servants.
At this moment, the darkness came to visit.
Du Duzhi was still lying on the bed. His fat body was sweating profusely. Suddenly, a figure appeared at the head of his bed and said, "Stop pretending, get up."
Du Duzhi still did not move. The figure said again, "Forget it. If you don't remember, then sleep forever!"
Du Duzhi, who was sleeping like a dead man, immediately jumped up from the bed and curled up at the foot of the bed. He said in fear, "Don't, don't kill me. I didn't say anything …"
The person said impatiently, "I asked you to find some women for me. Looks are secondary, as long as they have enough Primordial Yin. You, on the other hand, were blind to provoke the women of the Twelve Districts of the Red Pavilion. You brought me a lot of trouble. Tell me, do you deserve to die?"
"I …" "How would I know that they are from the Red Pavilion? I'm just doing things for you! Please let me go on account that I didn't bite you out! "Du Duzhi trembled.
The person snorted coldly and said, "Fortunately, you didn't expose me. Now that your luck has returned, you just need to push the blame onto Sun Changji to protect me. Naturally, I'll think of a way to protect you."
"Protect me? I don't have to die? I won't be killed? "Du Duzhi's eyes flashed as if he had found a life-saving straw.
"Of course, I'll use my influence in the court to change the names of the dead women to lowly status. This way, your crime will be greatly reduced. You can just stay in prison for a while to avoid the revenge of the women from the Red Pavilion. After that, you can continue to live happily. Of course, as long as you listen to me, I won't mistreat you. You can still live like a prince in prison. At least, I won't miss out on Blissful Pills."
The person took out a bottle of pills and said in a tempting voice, "Look, I didn't give you Blissful Pills these past two days. You can only use Five Minerals Powder to suppress your addiction. But how can a mere Five Minerals Powder compare to my Blissful Pills? You must have had a hard time these past two days. Just like before, as long as you listen to me obediently, these Blissful Pills will all be yours. With them, you'll still be able to enjoy yourself in prison. Do you understand? "
The person gently opened the bottle stopper and waved it in front of Du Duzhi. He waited for Du Duzhi to sniff his nose and crawl over like a dog to thank him for his reward.
However, he slowly raised his head and revealed a smile that did not match his puffy face. He said in a strong voice, "Yes, I understand everything. Zhang Shouzhi, Master Zhang!"
"You mean to say that the murderer is Zhang Shouzhi? But when Duanfa died, he did not have the ability to commit the crime. "In the Spirit Fox Villa, Hu Li raised his eyebrows. He seemed to be defending himself, but at the same time, he also seemed to be testing.
"Sun Changji was the one who killed Duanfa, but the murderer who killed Master Sima is someone else. Don't forget that all the evidence I mentioned just now only proves that Sun Changji killed Duanfa, but there is no concrete evidence to prove that Sima Chengzhen was also killed by him. Similarly, if we were to infer from a motive, because Sima Chengzhen found out that Sun Changji was cultivating the Yin Pill, he had the idea of killing his master. This motive is also applicable to the other Taoist masters of the Shangqing school. In fact, it is even more convincing to use it on Zhang Shouzhi. This is because there are three suspicious points about Zhang Shouzhi."
"Oh, what are the suspicious points?" Hu Li asked again.
Mu Zixuan said, "Suspicious point number one, ever since the murder happened, Zhang Shouzhi has been constantly pointing out other people as the murderer. It seems that compared to finding the real murderer, he is more eager to end the case as soon as possible."
Hu Li said, "Humans, when encountering an upheaval, will always panic and lose their heads out of fear. They act without thinking."
Mu Zixuan said, "Suspicious point number two, these days Zhang Shouzhi has been absent-minded about other things, but he seems to be particularly concerned about the disappearance of the girl. He volunteered to follow Ying Feiyang and the others to investigate. In the end, he went forward to support Du Ruhui who was stabbed by a sword and fell to the ground. He even happened to cover up for Du Duzhi, giving him the opportunity to take the Five Minerals powder."
Hu Li said, "Perhaps he has a deep brotherly relationship with Du Ruhui, and he loves Du Duzhi like a nephew, so he is more concerned about the disappearance of the girl, and covering up for Du Duzhi may be an unintentional act."
Mu Zixuan said, "Suspicious point number three, and also the most important, Zhang Shouzhi and Li Hanguang were originally fighting for the position of the next leader. They should have established their authority after the death of Master Sima and tried to take control of the power. But these days, Li Hanguang has been giving orders. Although Zhang Shouzhi does not listen to everything, he has not shown the courage to stand up to Li Hanguang as an equal. It seems that there is something more important to him than fighting for the position of the next leader."
"Maybe it's him …" "Forget it, I can't make it up anymore. If there are too many coincidences, it will no longer be a coincidence." Hu Li helplessly spread his hands and said, "Zhang Shouzhi is indeed very suspicious. So, you set up a second trap to lure him into taking the bait? "
"That's right. You exposed Sun Changji's crimes, and then deliberately let Sun Changji escape, luring him to have the idea of putting all the blame on Sun Changji. After Sun Changji escaped, Ying Feiyang, Li Hanguang, and I all went to mobilize people to help, but let him continue to search for Sun Changji's whereabouts, giving him space to act alone. Even the people from Shangqing school were transferred away, so that he could boldly get in touch with Du Duzhi, all for this second trap. And now, this trap has succeeded! " Mu Zixuan took out a piece of talisman paper in her hand. The blood-red Cinnabar characters on the talisman paper were constantly flashing, conveying some kind of message.
Hearing that Du Duzhi's voice was different from usual, Zhang Shouzhi suddenly became vigilant, "You're not Du Duzhi, who the hell are you!"
But he saw a bright light flashing in front of him, as bright as the sun, forcing him to raise his hand to cover it. In the bright light, a clear voice came, "Thieves think that they can take advantage of the darkness of the night to do evil, but they don't know that there are hidden traps everywhere in the night. Sun Changji's mistake is still in front of us, and Master Zhang, you repeated the same mistake and walked into a dead end. You really don't know how to learn your lesson."
As soon as the voice fell, the bright light dissipated, and a handsome figure suddenly appeared. His eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were like the morning stars. He was heroic and outstanding. It was Ying Feiyang!
"How could it be you!" Zhang Shouzhi was so shocked that he took two steps back, but he still suppressed the horror in his heart. With a twisted face, he said, "I've been tricked! “
Looking at Zhang Shouzhi's shocked face, Ying Feiyang said mockingly, "Master Zhang, I haven't seen such a lively expression on your face for a long time. These days, you've been in a trance, absent-minded, and you've inadvertently revealed a lot of flaws. It's inevitable that people will be suspicious, so it's only natural that they set up a trap to test you. Why are you so surprised?"
After the initial shock, Zhang Shouzhi calmed down. He used his Divine Sense to sweep the surroundings, but he didn't find any other master's breath. Then he said coldly, "You dare to set up a trap to test me alone. Now that you've tested me, what can you do?"
Ying Feiyang smiled calmly and said, "Master Zhang has dabbled in talisman techniques. I wonder if you recognize these two talismans. These two talismans were obtained from Taoist Li Hanguang. This one is called the Voice Recording Talisman. It's said that it's made by sealing the demonic energy of a parrot that has become a spirit in it. With the parrot's ability to imitate the words it says, as long as you activate the talisman, a parrot will appear and repeat the words it says. Even the voice will be exactly the same."
Zhang Shouzhi's face was ashen. Needless to say, his words just now had been recorded. As long as Ying Feiyang handed this talisman to Li Hanguang, his deeds would naturally be exposed.
Ying Feiyang kept the Voice Recording Talisman, then took out another talisman. She activated the Real Qi in her hand, and the talisman paper burned by itself. She said, "This one is called the Communication Talisman. It's drawn with the blood of a strange snake. As long as you ignite one, other talismans drawn with the same snake's blood will resonate and shine continuously. Taoist priest should know that one of the talismans is in the hands of Master Li. Now that he's received my message, he'll rush back in a moment. "
Zhang Shouzhi's face was so dark that it looked like water was about to drip out. However, he let out a mournful laugh like a night owl. He said in an awe-inspiring tone, "Ying Feiyang, now that things have come to this, I don't know whether I should praise you for being smart or stupid. If you secretly ignited the Communication Talisman, then pretended to talk to Li Hanguang and stall for time until he returns, I might really be helpless. But you just had to ignite it right in front of me. You said that Li Hanguang will rush back in a moment. Do you know how many times you'll die in this short period of time?"
Zhang Shouzhi scanned the surroundings again. After confirming that there was no aura of a master, he raised his hand and was ready to strike. He said, "I'll kill you, take back the Voice Recording Talisman, and frame Sun Changji. Naturally, no one will know what happened just now."
Ying Feiyang kept the Voice Recording Talisman in front of his chest. He said, "Master Zhang is full of murderous intent. To think that my Senior Brother Mu told me to keep you alive."
"Keep me alive?" It was just two short words, but it made Zhang Shouzhi feel that it was particularly harsh. He had been with Ying Feiyang for a month. Although he knew that Ying Feiyang was an unparalleled sword prodigy, and in terms of talent, he did not lose to anyone in the world, but how could talent make up for the gap of tens of years of foundation? Three to five years later, perhaps Ying Feiyang would be able to fight him. But now, he was not qualified to fight him alone!
When he thought of this, Zhang Shouzhi's heart was burning with anger. Then, he laughed out of anger and said in a deranged manner, "Hahahaha! Little brat, with just you? Keep me alive? How is that possible! "
"Yeah? How is that possible! " Ying Feiyang looked at the deranged Zhang Shouzhi indifferently. He slowly drew his sword and said coldly, "You live in a Taoist sect, but you don't cultivate your Taoist heart. Instead, you practice evil techniques, seduce women, kill people, and seal people's souls …" At first, Ying Feiyang was still cold and indifferent. But when he finished, his voice became stern and murderous. "All kinds of evil deeds are still vivid in my mind! You want me to keep you alive? How is that possible! "
