Chapter 39 Reappearance of Blood
Night, silent night, Shushan, it is dark. Taking off the bustling coat, this ancient sect returned to the most authentic tranquility again. A dark cloud floated past, blocking the dim moonlight. In the courtyard, the wind blew the fallen leaves and rustled, and from time to time there was a rumbling sound from the bedroom.
At this time, a light lit up in the ancestral ancestral hall in the southwest corner of the Shushan School, and two figures were reflected in the faint light.
"Why are you back again?" An old man's voice came, as if with some anger.
"Why can't I come back?" A teenager's voice sounded: "Actually, I came back this time to tell you something."
"Oh?" The old man's voice was full of doubt and curiosity: "What are you going to say?"
The shorter figure came up and seemed to be very careful. Suddenly, the old man made a muffled sound, and a few strands of blood sprayed on the white window paper.
The short figure quickly became taller, and his height was no different from that of a normal man. The door of the ancestral temple opened, a gust of wind floated out of the door, and the door quickly closed again. There was still silence around, as if nothing had happened.
A shadow crossed one roof after another, and the speed was so fast that it could not be seen clearly. The Shushan School covered an area of more than 10,000 mu. The leaders and elders lived in the quiet northeast, and the soul power of the heavenly masters would not disperse at any time. It was impossible to observe the situation in the faction at all times, so the shadow could be so big. Individual schools are free to move.
Suddenly, the shadow stopped. This was actually a man in black. Because the speed was too fast, he could only see a vague shadow. He looked around, raised his eyebrows and was a little shocked.
Wow, a sword light that was more than ten times faster than him suddenly shot over. As far as the sword light could, the space trembled, and the person in black twisted, like a swimming fish, deftly avoiding it.
"Who are you?" An indifferent voice sounded, and the man in black looked up and saw a teenager in a blue robe standing on the roof opposite him. It was Zhang Ziguang.
The man in black sneered and threw his hands out. Black iron beads crossed the air one by one, suddenly burst, and suddenly filled with smoke.
Zhang Ziguang said in a bad way. Even though he had stepped into the sky, he still could not identify the direction in such a fog. After a while, the smoke dissipated, but the man in black had disappeared.
Suddenly, a voice sounded from below: "Catch him, it's the mysterious pearl he stole!"
Zhang Ziguang was shocked and looked down. He saw dozens of Shushan disciples in a circle, holding torches high, and under the roof where he was. The blazing fire lit up their angry faces.
Zhang Ziguang jumped down doubtfully and was about to ask, but was stopped by a disciple. Dozens of disciples rushed up and tied him up.
According to Zhang Ziguang's current strength, he can defeat these disciples and escape calmly, but in this way, he may be imposed a false charge and become a sinner who harms his peers.
"The elders are coming!" The voice of a disciple came. Zhang Ziguang's eyes flashed, and a middle-aged man in a green robe came to him. It was Elder Zhu Guangfeng. Elder Zhu Guangfeng looked at Zhang Ziguang carefully and looked a little surprised. He settled down and said, "Let him loose!"
Several disciples reluctantly untied the rope on Zhang Ziguang's body. Zhang Ziguang immediately scolded, "Uncle Zhu, I just rested in the room. When I heard a movement outside the house, I got up to check and found a man in black jumping on the roof. I wanted to stop him, but I had no choice but to learn He escaped with poor skills and low Taoism, but the disciples of your school insisted that I stole the Xuanming pearls. Is this how the noble school treats guests?
Zhang Ziguang's words were orderly, neither humble nor arrogant, and Zhu Guangfeng was speechless for a moment. At this time, a disciple suddenly interrupted and said, "You said you heard a sound outside the house, so why are there so many disciples sleeping here, but you are the only one who heard the sound?"
Zhang Ziguang's heart is stagnant. Since he stepped into the heavenly level, his spiritual sense is more sensitive and he can easily feel the sound or movement of smiling, but after all, stepping into the heavenly level is a secret that cannot be explained in public.
When Zhu Guangfeng saw Zhang Ziguang's speechless, he said, "Please take me to see the leader. At that time, whether you will be wronged or not, the leader will make a final determination."
Zhang Ziguang nodded and walked with Zhu Guangfeng to the residence of Daoqian Zhenren.
In the Shushan Hall, more than a dozen elders gathered together. The head Tao Qianzhen sat high on the main seat, looking down at Zhang Ziguang, who had just been brought, and frowned.
After a moment of silence, Dao Qianzhen said, "Brother Zhu, why are you sure that Zhang Ziguang stole the Xuanming Jewel?"
Zhu Guangfeng gave a general overview of what had just happened. Daoqian nodded with satisfaction and immediately smiled, "Let Zhang Ziguang go quickly. This is not his fault!"
Everyone in the hall was shocked, and the elder Daotian quickly got up and said, "My head, is this matter his? As soon as we check it, we will know that although Zhang Ziguang is our benefactor of Shushan, Xuanming Baozhu is also a great treasure sent by me. Don't be such a joke."
Daoqian Zhenren smiled and said, "If Xuanming Baozhu was really stolen by Zhang Ziguang, he would not be caught by you so easily." After saying that, he blinked mysteriously at Zhang Ziguang. Zhang Ziguang's heart sank and immediately foresaw something.
Everyone was surprised and didn't understand the meaning of Dao Qianzhen. Zhang Ziguang still looked calm, but a faint cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Hajor, the big deal is not good!" A disciple panicked and staggered in. He knelt on the ground and said, "The leader, the Taoist elder...he..."
"What's wrong with him?" Daoqian's face changed and he asked coldly.
The disciple calmed down and his panic weakened slightly. He sobbed, "Old Daoqing... Elder Daoqing... He was killed in the ancestral ancestral hall!!!"
Because the theft of Xuanming's pearls was urgent, many elders will not be informed, so the Taoist elders are not in the hall and will not be suspicious, but at this moment, when the bad news comes, everyone can't sit still.
"What?!" All the elders sitting in the seat seemed to be stimulated by something. They suddenly stood up. Daoqian's face was still blue. He still sat on the seat, waved his hand and said, "Calm down, everyone. Let's go and have a look." Then, he turned his head to this purple light and said, "We in Shushan misunderstood the distinguished guests, which is the mistake of our Shushan. I hope you can understand."
Zhang Ziguang didn't want to do more pestering, so he said knowingly: "Who can be blameless in life? You don't have to blame yourself. If nothing happens, I will leave first."
"Please!" Daoqian said with a kind tone and a smile. Zhang Ziguang bowed and withdrew from the hall.
He looked at the flustered Shushan disciples, sneered, and disappeared into the gray night.
Shushan and his entourage hurried to the ancestral ancestral ancestral hall under the leadership of Daoqian Zhenren. Soon, the ancient ancestral hall was lit up. Daoqian Zhenren led the crowd to walk in, but they saw splashing blood everywhere on the floor and window paper. The corpse of Daoqing's elder Chen was in the center of the hall, and there was still one inserted in his abdomen. The bright dagger, the spiritual position of the ancestors of Shushan, is like black eyes, as if blaming the descendants for disturbing the silence here.
Daoqian Zhenren walked forward carefully, gently pulled out the dagger from the abdomen of the elder Daoqing and put it under the light to watch carefully.
The dagger emitted a faint golden light under the light, and a dragon-shaped mark jumped in front of him. Daoqian's eyes narrowed into a line. Zhu Guangfeng behind him also saw this scene and whispered, "At this time, the dagger of the royal family has something to do with the murderer and the people of the royal family?"
Daoqian Zhenren did not answer, and walked around the ancestral temple again. He found no valuable clues, so he gathered all the elders and disciples who knew the news and said in a low voice, "This matter is of great importance. You must not reveal half to others, and the violators will be expelled from Shushan!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded, so that everyone will be more alert. Expulsion from Shushan is equivalent to ruining a disciple's future, and no one will make fun of his future.
After the crowd dispersed, Zhu Guangfeng quickly followed the real man, lowered his voice, and asked, "Brother, there is something unclear below. I hope you can teach me!"
Dao Qianzhen looked at him, smiled kindly and said, "Do you want to ask about Zhang Ziguang? Let's take a step to talk!"
Daoqian Zhenren took Zhu Guangfeng to a secluded and uninhabited place. As soon as he arrived here, Zhu Guangfeng said first: "Xuanming Baozhu is a treasure handed down from his ancestors, which is very precious. Even if Zhang Ziguang is kind to my Shushan, you can't let him go so easily!"
Daoqian Zhenren patted him on the shoulder and explained, "Do you know that the Ziyang faction has a secret to hide its strength?"
Zhu Guangfeng nodded and said, "I've heard of it for a long time, but I've never seen it. Do you doubt it..."
Daoqian Zhenren said, "Yes, I think Zhang Ziguang used this secret technique to hide his strength. From his direct point of view, he only has the strength of breaking the air level, but whenever there is a big event, the maturity and decisiveness he showed and the kind of sharpness that inadvertently revealed are by no means what this kind of Taoist can do, so I think he is the strength to break the air level and even the sky level!"
Zhu Guangfeng suddenly said, "So, if Zhang Ziguang really has such strength, then he can easily get rid of those disciples who chase him. Naturally, he will not be arrested. We don't have to doubt that the mysterious pearl was stolen by him, but this is just your guess. There is no evidence."
Dao Qianzhen said calmly, "I have lived for hundreds of years. Can I still see the wrong person? This Zhang Ziguang is not simple. It will become a great weapon in the future."
Zhu Guangfeng paused, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Then, you don't doubt that... Brother Daoqing was killed by him?"
Daoqian's real tone was heavy and said, "I don't think so. I carefully examined the wound of Daoqing's younger brother and found the traces of vicissitudesmanship again. I suspect that the murderer and the one who killed the disciples of the three families before."
Zhu Guangfeng was a little worried. Looking at the dark clouds covering the moon in the air, he sighed quietly, "Alas, first it shook the demon lake, and then this series of unsolved cases. What an eventful autumn!"
