Chapter 20 Secrets
Zhang Yuanshan's mind was in turmoil, and all that came to mind was on the "Reincarnation Square". Qi Xia introduced Tang Hua with a smile, talking about hidden weapons and other miscellaneous studies. He originally thought that if anyone could take the risk to expose the "Reincarnation World" It must be one of her or Jiang Zhiwei, not Qi Xia, who seems to have come into contact with the things she dreams of in the "reincarnation world", and her wish is expected to come true!
Who knew that while she was still hesitating, she would actually make up her mind? No, she seemed to have made up her mind very early!
Could it be that her joy before and after the exchange was just a show?
No, it's not like it's fake, maybe it's just joy that can't suppress her determination to get out of danger!
As soon as Qi Xia spoke, Kong Wen looked at her and said Amitabha: "Donor Qi, please speak."
"What do you know?" Taoist Shouzhuo looked at Qi Xia full of anger towards the real murderer, waiting for her to provide clues.
Suddenly, Su Wuming, Xuan Yuanzi and Qi Xia's father Qi Yuandong all cast their eyes on Qi Xia. They didn't understand why she, who was several steps away from the Xuantian Sect's courtyard, could find out about things related to Qing Jing's death. Whatever she can touch when she wakes up at night, masters like them will also automatically sense it in their sleep. In other words, those who can hide from the senses of herself and others will definitely not be accidentally hit by a little girl like Qi Xia who has not yet awakened. superior.
Zhang Yuanshan subconsciously hid behind his master Xuan Yuanzi, his left hand clenched unconsciously, and his right hand touched the hilt of his own sword. The cold touch slightly relieved the nervousness and worry in his heart, but the dryness of his mouth was not at all. Without fading, he quietly glanced at Jiang Zhiwei and saw that her right hand was also pressed on the hilt of the sword.
After Qi Xia blurted out those words, there was no room for retreat. He looked at the seniors and "Dragon-Subduing Arhat" Kong Wen, secretly hoping that the Dharmakaya master could deter and stop the "Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation", even if Abbot Kong Wen He is the mastermind behind the scenes. In order not to be exposed in public, he will protect himself and even personally escort himself back to the Dajiang Gang. After returning to the Dajiang Gang, because he reminded his wary father and other elders, he will definitely invite the town faction. The magic soldier "crosses the sea and rivers with his stick", and his own safety is guaranteed.
"Reporting to Master Abbot, both Qingjing and I were killed..." Qi Xia organized her words, trying to arouse the vigilance of the elders as quickly as possible.
As soon as the word "six" was spoken, Qi Xia suddenly felt that her heart was pounding, pounding, beating extremely violently, a large amount of blood surged up, her head was swollen, her throat was blocked, and she couldn't breathe.
boom!
Qi Xia seemed to hear a crisp cracking sound in the dark, and his vision was bright red. He vaguely saw a big hand shining with solemn Buddha light reaching towards him with a soft and stable aura, trying to save himself, and a sword light, like the sky. Qing Ming suddenly appeared and pointed into the void three inches behind him.
"The 'Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation' actually dares to do something in front of a Dharmakaya-level expert..."
"It's a pity that they were a little late..."
Qi Xia fell into the boundless darkness with emotions of bitterness, regret, shock, and unwillingness, and her body fell softly to the ground.
"Xia'er!" Qi Yuantong, like the white-haired fisherman in the poem, shouted sadly. He caught Qi Xia very fast, and his true energy poured out from his palm, pouring into Qi Xia's body like no money, but there was no reaction. .
Amid Jiang Zhi's slightly dazed and shocked expression, Su Wuming withdrew his long sword, stroking the blade with his left hand. His eyes were half-closed, indescribably sharp, but his expression was unusually solemn, with a deep sense of thought. .
"Amitabha, I'm a step too late." Kong Wen clasped his hands together, no more solemn and sacred Buddha light flashed, and shock and astonishment appeared on his face for the first time.
Pretending to be caught off guard, one step too late... Pretending to be caught off guard, one step too late... Zhang Yuanshan seemed to have thunderous explosions in his mind. He was frightened and frightened. The feeling of thankfulness and fear was mixed with the feeling of regret and self-blame, which was difficult to understand. Get a clue.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration: "No, Abbot Kong Wen didn't show his Arhat's golden body at all just now. If he really acted like I thought and pretended to be caught off guard and was a step too late, he should have done his best in the end to show his innocence. How can he be so perfunctory like this! Maybe he was caught off guard? Even I, who knew the inside story, didn't expect that the 'Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation' would take action so quickly, so cruelly, and so mysteriously..."
When he looked at the lifeless Qi Xia in Qi Yuantong's arms, he felt as if his heart was being pinched by a big hand, and he was so heavy and sad that he almost couldn't breathe.
The one who couldn't be rescued was Taoist Shouzhuo. He glared at Kongwen angrily at first, as if he wanted to scold him for being perfunctory and not trying his best. I'm afraid it had something to do with the real murderer, but his expression suddenly changed a few times, as if he was recalling something. , and gradually calmed down, Xuan Yuanzi, Qi Yuandong and others also did not stand out.
"Dear donors, what happened to Donor Qi just now made me think of several similar things." Kong Wen slowly said, "It was also my negligence that failed to connect the incident of Donor Qingjing with these things, otherwise I should be able to save Donor Qi.”
A few similar things? Zhang Yuanshan felt that there were too many things hitting him tonight, and he couldn't bear it. He looked at Kong Wen nervously and shocked, and not surprisingly found that Jiang Zhiwei's expressions and actions were very consistent with his own.
Fortunately, others had similar reactions, so the two of them were not out of line.
"I would like to hear the details." Xuan Yuanzi nodded, and Qi Yuantong also looked at Kongwen with slightly blood-red eyes.
Kong Wen sighed: "I wonder if you have heard of the mysterious organization 'Xianji'? If any of their members want to reveal the internal secrets, they will die inexplicably like Donor Qi. I suspect that there may be some kind of curse in their bodies. Once triggered, it can attract the power of the dark."
"'Xianji'? I fought with 'Dou Mu Yuan Jun' among them once, hey, I almost lost my life." Xuan Yuanzi said self-deprecatingly, "But I have never caught any of their members, and I have never seen similar mysterious deaths."
"What? You almost lost your life? What about 'Dou Mu Yuan Jun'?" Taoist Shouzhuo asked impatiently.
Xuan Yuanzi is the head of the Zhenwu Sect's general affairs. Although he is not the top-level master in the sect, he is also a famous figure on the earth list. He is similar in strength to Taoist Shouzhuo. It is unacceptable that he was defeated by a master from an unknown "organization".
"As far as I know, there are very few official members of 'Xianji', no more than 20. Each of them uses a name from a famous Taoist or immortal from the ancient mythological era, and their real names are not revealed. 'Dou Mu Yuan Jun' is one of them." Kong Wen explained to those present who had never heard of the "Xianji" organization.
Xuan Yuanzi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Master Abbot does know more than I do. I ran into that 'Dou Mu Yuanjun' in a daze, fought a big battle, and fled in a panic. I don't know anything except the immortal traces and the other party's name. Well, ten years ago, 'Dou Mu Yuanjun' should have the strength of the peak of the external scene."
"Using the name of immortals and gods, without revealing their real names? Where do so many unknown masters come from in this world! Maybe it is an organization secretly established by some ambitious people from various schools! Xuan Yuanzi, can you see the origin of 'Dou Mu Yuanjun's' martial arts?" Taoist Shouzhu snorted, not believing that so many masters could remain unknown. In addition to the code name of "Xianji", they must have another prominent identity in the world!
So, he still suspected that there was a traitor in Shaolin Temple!
Xuan Yuanzi chuckled, "If I could tell, I would have found him long ago. My 'Zhenwu Sect' is the lineage of the Great Zhenwu Emperor, and we are not so easy to bully. The martial arts displayed by 'Dou Mu Yuanjun' seem to be the unique martial arts of the 'Mother of All Stars' in the mythological era, the 'Star God's Descent Art', but the 'Star God's Descent Art' and the 'Hunyuan Fanxu Gong' have been lost for tens of thousands of years, so I don't know who has inherited it by chance."
"'Hunyuan Fanxu Gong'...'Star God's Descent Art'..." Zhang Yuanshan's face turned pale, because he remembered that these two magical skills were on the exchange list of the "Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation", the former worth 500,000 merits, and the latter 80,000, "Could this 'Xianji' organization really have something to do with the 'Reincarnation World'?"
The Taoist Shouzhuo circled around Qi Yuantong and nodded gently: "There is a mysterious power erupting from the body, and the external power of the dark is indeed beyond the ability of ordinary people, but since there are traces of curses or similar in the body, we can check each other first."
Just when Zhang Yuanshan's hair was tightened, Su Wuming in front of Jiang Zhiwei spoke: "Similar traces are hidden very deeply. If we don't find out the origin and use targeted methods, we may not be able to find clues."
"Su Wuming, guessing cannot replace action." The Taoist Shouzhuo became fierce, and he was not afraid of Su Wuming.
"Mr. Su is right. With some understanding and preparation, I searched for the member of the 'Xianji', 'Taiyi Tianzun', and found no hidden traces..." Kong Wen roughly recounted several things he encountered with the Xianji organization, and then looked at Su Wuming, "Mr. Su seems to have similar experiences?"
Su Wuming said lightly: "I encountered an organization called 'Shenhua', which is similar to 'Xianji', but it is the mortal enemy of 'Xianji', and the title is the name of the ancient gods."
"Mr. Su, did you gain anything?" Kong Wen asked with concern when everyone was shocked that there was another mysterious organization.
Su Wuming still looked calm: "The 'Dong Wanggong' I met was quite powerful, and I couldn't stop."
So, he has returned to dust? Many young disciples were sweating.
"And the body mysteriously destroyed itself." Su Wuming continued.
Kong Wen sighed: "With this old monk watching, the body of 'Taiyi Tianzun' was not destroyed, but his true identity is extraordinary. I will communicate with you later."
There are so many people here, so it is not convenient to discuss in depth.
"Whether it is 'immortal traces' or 'myths', they are all mysterious and sneaky. There must be a conspiracy of unreliable people. I suggest that all major sects join forces to investigate this matter!" Taoist Shouzhu said in a loud voice.
Kong Wen nodded and took the Nine-ring Staff again: "If there is any harvest in the future, Shaolin is willing to share it with all sects."
"The same goes for Xuantian Sect." Taoist Shouzhuo agreed directly and looked at Qi Yuantong, "Please search your daughter's belongings to see if you find anything."
Qi Yuantong nodded with a gloomy face. As expected, he found the method of making the "Tang Flower". Then, he gritted his teeth and said: "There is no such hidden weapon in my Dajiang Gang. Humph! The rats of "Xianji" and "Mythology" must be killed to commemorate Xia'er!"
The method of making hidden weapons that he had never seen in the world reminded him of the "Star God's Descent to the World" mentioned by Xuan Yuanzi, which had been lost for many years. He believed more and more that the death of the little girl was related to these two mysterious organizations.
Xuan Yuanzi looked at the disciples behind the masters of various sects: "This is a serious matter. Please restrain your disciples and don't leak this matter."
Those who can enter the Mahavira Hall are the future elites of each sect and have certain qualifications to know about this matter, so he just asked them not to leak it casually.
"Yes, uncle." Zhang Yuanshan answered immediately, and the other disciples also agreed one by one.
After several people in charge went to the back of the hall to discuss secretly for a while, they returned. Zhang Yuanshan followed Xuan Yuanzi out of the Mahavira Hall and walked towards the Shenke Residence.
Along the way, he was always entangled and distressed about what happened just now.
As he walked, he heard Uncle Xuan Yuanzi sigh softly.
This sigh was like a trigger, causing Zhang Yuanshan's hidden doubts to burst out. He stepped forward quickly and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, why don't you question Abbot Kongwen? He never tried his best to save Junior Sister Qi, and he didn't show the golden body of Arhat at all."
At least he didn't show the "golden body" he saw in various classics!
Xuan Yuanzi smiled and said approvingly: "Sharp observation, meticulous."
Then, he looked up at the sky, half disappointed and half sighing: "The rumors are true."
Huh? Zhang Yuanshan looked at Xuan Yuanzi in confusion, but Xuan Yuanzi did not mean to explain the matter. He shook his head and signaled him not to ask more questions.
The night was as cool as water, with fine snow flying, and the sky was dimly lit.
