Chapter 187 Golden Silkworm Gu Master
At this moment.
Fu Tingyuan was practicing in seclusion in the hut in front of the dripping cliff.
He first swallowed a special secret medicine according to the instructions of the golden silkworm Gu master, and then began to regulate his qi and blood.
As the medicine took effect, Fu Tingyuan felt that his already hardened bone marrow had loosened a little, and strands of acquired turbid qi were squeezed out and then discharged from the body.
This feeling made him obsessed.
Fu Tingyuan is 37 years old this year.
This age is in the prime of life for a martial artist, but it is a bit too late to advance to the fifth realm.
It can even be said that there is little hope.
In fact, before this, Fu Tingyuan had given up the idea of advancing to the fifth realm.
But he didn't expect that the golden silkworm Gu master of Lianshizong promised him that there was a way to make him break through the bone marrow barrier and achieve blood exchange.
At that time, Fu Tingyuan was immediately moved.
After all, no martial artist can resist such temptation.
That's why he trusted the people of Lianshi Sect so much, and even acquiesced to many of their behaviors.
Now the results are gratifying. Although the progress is very slow, at least there is progress, right?
And as long as there is progress, Fu Tingyuan has the confidence to completely expel the acquired turbidity and thus advance to the fifth realm.
Just when he was full of confidence and worked hard, the door of the house was suddenly knocked.
Fu Tingyuan frowned.
Before the retreat, he had instructed that no one could come to disturb him unless there was something extremely important.
Especially now that he had just taken the precious secret medicine, it was a good time to work hard, which made Fu Tingyuan even more annoyed.
"What's the matter?" Fu Tingyuan shouted coldly.
"Big village master, something happened in the front mountain." Zhan Feng's voice came from outside the door.
But at this moment, he no longer had the calmness of the past, and even his voice was trembling slightly, obviously very scared.
Hearing that it was Zhan Feng who came in person, Fu Tingyuan took it seriously.
"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
"Go and have a look. Miss San... is in trouble!"
"Tingfang? What could happen to her?"
"You... you'd better go and have a look. The situation is not good!"
Zhan Feng did not dare to tell the fact that Fu Tingfang was dead, for fear that it would irritate the head of the village and chop him with another palm.
This is not alarmist.
Fu Tingyuan behaves very normally on weekdays, and sometimes he is even very approachable.
But once he gets angry, it's like a different person, and he will take it out on the people around him.
If this matter is not related to him, Zhan Feng would never come to deliver this letter.
But he still decided to delay as much as possible, even if he told him the truth in the front hall.
At least his own danger was greatly reduced.
At this time, Fu Tingyuan did not think of the bad at all, and thought that his only sister was throwing a tantrum again.
It was also his fault that he spoiled her too much, so that he developed a lawless character.
Fu Tingyuan shook his head secretly, but since it was about his sister, he couldn't sit still, so he stood up and opened the door.
"Let's go and take a look."
Fu Tingyuan said as he walked towards the front mountain.
Zhan Feng followed him tremblingly, not even daring to raise his head.
After leaving the dripping cliff, Fu Tingyuan also noticed something was wrong.
Because the whole Qingzhu Ridge was boiling, the heads of each village gathered with their minions in the square in front of the hall, and the atmosphere was very tense.
Fu Tingyuan's face sank at that time.
"Second brother, what happened that alarmed the whole mountain?"
Zhan Feng didn't dare not answer, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Big village head, the third... Miss San was killed by the people of Lianshizong!"
Long before he came, Zhan Feng had decided to push all the blame on the people of Lianshizong.
Although he also saw the scene in the central hall, it was obvious that there were many things wrong, especially the death of the fifth village head Huo Tianxiao, which also revealed all kinds of strangeness.
But for the sake of his own life, Zhan Feng chose to conceal the truth.
Anyway, the people of Lianshizong and his side are already at loggerheads. If the chieftain can completely eliminate these guys because of this incident, it would be a good thing.
After listening to Zhan Feng's words, Fu Tingyuan was stunned at first, and then his eyes flashed with a look of choosing someone to devour.
"What are you going to say? What happened to Tingfang?"
"Miss San... was killed!"
Boom!
With a loud bang, Zhan Feng was blown away.
Although he was prepared, this punch almost killed him.
After landing, Zhan Feng spit out blood, but he didn't even dare to raise his head.
"Chieftain, this incident was indeed done by the people of Lianshizong. If you don't believe me, you can go and see!"
At this time, there is only one way to go, which is to grit your teeth.
The murderous aura on Fu Tingyuan's body is almost condensed into substance. Without saying a word, he turned around and ran to the courtyard.
With his speed, he arrived at the courtyard camp in the blink of an eye.
When they saw him, the minions and the heads of the various camps gathered in the square in front of the gate bowed their heads and retreated, making way.
Fu Tingyuan ran into the courtyard and saw the dead body on the ground at a glance.
Sister Fu Tingfang had her own sword stuck in her neck, lying on the ground with her eyes wide open. She had been dead for a long time.
Next to her, there was a man lying on the ground. Although his face could not be seen, he could be recognized from his clothes. He should be a member of the Lianshi Sect.
Seeing this scene, Fu Tingyuan stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Then he rushed forward like a mad tiger and hugged Fu Tingfang's body.
"Tingfang!"
After a cry, tears came to my eyes.
Because her parents were both dead, Fu Tingfang had followed him since she was a child and was raised by him.
Therefore, the relationship between the brother and sister is extremely deep.
Even if Fu Tingyuan later founded Qingzhuling and became the master of the village, Fu Tingfang would still be by his side.
But now his only sister is dead, and she died in the Zhongting Dazhai, no more than two miles away from Dripping Cliff where she is retreating.
All of this combined made Fu Tingyuan almost crazy.
No one dared to speak.
Everyone was hiding in the distance, silently looking at the village leader who was holding his sister's body and wailing.
Many people had a premonition that a bloody storm was coming.
as expected.
After wailing for a while, Fu Tingyuan suddenly stopped crying, and then gritted his teeth and roared: "Come here!"
"exist!"
Zhan Feng and several other village leaders came out at the same time and responded loudly.
"Go and capture everyone from the Lianshi Sect. I want to interrogate them one by one!" Fu Tingyuan said slowly, his words full of chilling murderous intent.
"yes!"
All of these people's eyes lit up.
They had long disliked the people of Lian Shizong, but because of Fu Tingyuan's attitude, they could only choose to swallow their anger.
Now that Fu Tingyuan had spoken, they were naturally filled with joy and immediately went to arrest him.
In addition to the dead Guan Lun, there are five other people in Lian Shizong in Qingzhu Ridge.
These five people do not live on Qingzhu Ridge, but in the mining area of the back mountain.
Fu Tingyuan specially built a house for them here, equipped it with servants, and even had concubines to sleep with them. They lived a very happy life.
Therefore, these people knew nothing about what happened in the front mountain, and were captured alive by Zhan Feng and several village leaders in their sleep.
When they were naked and tied up and brought to the atrium, Fu Tingyuan had already regained his composure.
He pointed at Guan Lun and his sister's body on the ground.
"Give me an explanation."
The five people woke up as if from a dream. Only then did they realize what had happened, and then they explained in horror.
"Master of the Dazhai, we really don't know what's going on. This Guan Lun is usually not honest. He must have come to see Miss Third on his own initiative and started fighting because of the dispute. So this really has nothing to do with it. We have nothing to do with it!”
One of them explained in a hoarse voice.
But Fu Tingyuan didn't listen to his nonsense at all. He raised his hand and slapped his head directly.
Bang.
The head exploded, brains splattered everywhere, and the faces of the other four people were turned to dust.
"Come on, keep talking and tell me why my sister died!" Fu Tingyuan said coldly.
How could these four people speak?
Although they usually dared to show off their power, it was because Fu Tingyuan turned a blind eye to what they did because the Golden Silkworm Gu Master provided him with the secret medicine.
Now that Fu Tingyuan was furious because of his sister's death, they naturally couldn't be arrogant anymore.
"Don't say anything, Zhan Feng!"
"exist!"
"Drag him out and light the sky lanterns!"
"yes!"
This is what Zhan Feng was waiting for.
Fu Tingyuan had just slapped him away. Although the injury was not serious, it still made his heart full of anger.
So he stepped forward without hesitation, grabbed a person's hair and dragged him out.
These people made cries like ghosts and wolves howling for mercy.
In the midst of the chaos, a shout was suddenly heard in the distance.
"Master Dazhai, calm down!"
Following the words, a figure ran quickly and arrived in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
This man wears a mask with golden silkworm patterns embroidered on the mask. He is the golden silkworm Gu master of Lian Shi Sect.
When they saw him, the three of them shouted crazily as if they had seen a life-saving straw.
"Lord Gu, save me!"
"Master Gu, please help me!"
The Golden Silkworm Gu Master glanced at them, then snorted coldly: "What a bunch of trash."
With that said, he walked into the atrium and came to Fu Tingyuan.
Seeing him coming, the anger on Fu Tingyuan's face gradually subsided.
no way.
Now that he was seeking help from the Golden Silkworm Gu Master, he naturally couldn't make things too tense.
But Fu Tingfang's death still filled him with anger, so he said nothing and just looked at him coldly, as if waiting for his explanation.
The Golden Silkworm Gu Master first looked at the corpse on the ground, then squatted down and carefully checked the surrounding traces, and then stood up and said.
"Master of the Dazhai, I am deeply saddened by your sister's death, but there is obviously something fishy about this matter."
"Oh? What's weird?" Fu Tingyuan said coldly.
"Look, something is obviously wrong here. If Guan Lun really wants to kill your sister, how come he has such injuries on his body?"
The Golden Silkworm Gu Master pointed at Guan Lun's trampled hand and said.
"Also, I observed that Guan Lun was obviously poisoned, which means someone must have held him hostage to do these things." The Golden Silkworm Gu Master explained.
Fu Tingyuan was doubtful, "If that's the case, then who is the person who held him hostage?"
"This is what I was about to ask you. Being able to use such poison obviously proves that this person is no idle person. Chief of the stronghold, do you think there are any enemies who are good at using poison?"
"I have so many enemies, how can I think of this in a short time?" Fu Tingyuan said impatiently.
"It may not be against you, maybe it is against Miss Three?" said the Golden Silkworm Gu Master.
Hearing this, Zhan Feng's face changed drastically.
The Golden Silkworm Gu Master naturally noticed this, so he asked: "Second Village Master, it seems that you have thought of something?"
"No!"
Zhan Feng certainly would not help this Golden Silkworm Gu Master, so even if he had some guesses in his heart, he still gritted his teeth and refused to admit it.
And if it was really that person who did it, it would prove that he sneaked into the mountain from outside.
Wouldn't that prove that he was derelict in his duty?
He would not do such a stupid thing, so he firmly denied it.
The Golden Silkworm Gu Master could not force him to question him, so he could only look at him coldly, and then went to the secret room next to him with Fu Tingyuan to discuss things.
Zhan Feng here secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then a strong fear emerged in his heart.
If it was really him, then the whole thing would be easy to explain.
But now Huo Tianxiao and Fu Tingfang are dead, so is it his turn next?
Zhan Feng knows very well that there is an irreconcilable hatred between him and Zhao Ya!
When Qingzhu Ridge was in chaos, Zhao Ya had already returned to Wuxiang City.
When Meng Shiwen and Zui'er, who had been worried all night, saw him return safely, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Xiaoya, why did you go out for a whole night and come back now?" Zui'er asked.
"Well, something delayed me on the way."
Zhao Ya naturally did not mention what he did in Qingzhu Ridge, because it would have no effect except making Zui'er and the others worry about him.
There is not even a place to eat in Wuxiang City now.
Fortunately, when they came, Zhao Ya and the others prepared a lot of food in advance and put them on the carriage.
Zui'er borrowed the kitchen of the Hong family and simply heated up the food, and the three of them had breakfast.
Then Zhao Ya said, "Let's go outside the city to pay respect to Zui'er's grandmother today. As for Master..."
"After we kill the culprit, we'll take their heads and pay respect to them."
