The Path Toward Heaven Chapter 10: The green hills after 2 years
Time flies, another two years in a blink of an eye.
The world is still the same, and there is not much time to change.
The underworld is very quiet, and there has been no trace of soul fire in the sun for a long time.
Snow Country is also very silent. It seems that even the snow monsters known for their brutal and bloodthirsty need a breather after the war.
The soldiers and civilians of North County and the man in the wind and snow in Lonedao Town finally ushered in a complete year without war.
There is no major event overseas. It’s just that when a **** ship on Penglai Island was exploring the secret realm of Mingquan, one of the three major whirlpools, it suddenly encountered a wind and sinking, although in the end she managed to escape the swallowing of the whirlpool. It collided with an iceberg.
If it weren't for a certain hero on another continent to cross the sea to rescue, I'm afraid that divine ship would sink into the cold seabed.
After the story of was spread to Chaotian Continent, it was denounced as a ridiculous lie by many people, because no one could understand many details in this story, such as the hero who crossed the sea. What does it mean to cross the sea, and how can one save a divine ship that is as heavy as a mountain?
This is also commonplace. People tend to believe only what they are willing to believe.
Until now, there are still some mortals who insist that there are no ascetics in the world, which is the same reason.
Whether people believe it or not, some things will happen eventually.
For example, Haizhou City, is about to usher in another Four Seas Feast hosted by the Western Kings and Suns.
At the same time, a meeting was being held in a secret office in the city.
This winter has come to an end. There is no more snow in Chaoge City. Haizhou is on the bank of the West Sea. The climate is warm and intoxicating like spring.
Looking at the indifferent faces of those monks, Shi Fengchen suddenly wanted to get drunk and stopped thinking about these things, but he hadn't drunk for two years after being transferred.
He knew that if it weren't for Haizhou City to host the Four Seas Banquet, Qingtiansi and his face would not be able to invite so many practitioners, let alone those big sect disciples.
"I have been promoted for two years."
Shi Fengchen looked at the monks and said, but his face was not happy.
Except for two little cultivators who didn’t know the truth, they said two congratulations, but the other cultivators did not respond.
The monks respect the royal family, but there are no court officials in their eyes, even if Shi Fengchen is not an ordinary official.
What's more, Shi Fengchen was promoted from Chaonancheng Supervisor to Qingtian Division Deputy Inspection. It seemed that he was promoted, but many people knew why.
"My deputy patrol is investigating this case. If I can't catch the two monsters this time, I will be finished."
Shi Fengchen's gaze swept over everyone, and said: "I really have no influence on your sects, but if you are sure that you will die, you can't use the last effort to influence the royal court's quota distribution."
Upon hearing this, the ascetics of sects such as Daze did not change their expressions, but those of the minor sects were a little anxious.
Whether it is spar or other monastic resources, it is determined by the imperial court and major sects such as Zhongzhou School, Qingshan School, Daze, and Xihai to allocate shares.
Those big sects naturally don’t worry that the court will lose their offerings, but what about their small sects?
Shi Fengchen really wanted to make a ruthless one before he stepped down, even if it just reduces the supply of 10% spar, it will have a great impact on the small sects.
A small sect ascetic said with a bitter face: "My lord, just say what you want, why bother."
Shi Fengchen said: "I mean it is very clear. The powerhouse of the imperial court either guards the center in Chaoge Town, or fights against the snow country powerhouse in the Zhenbei Army. Today, Qingtianji only has an empty shell. It’s just that there is no way to take those two demon heads, so I have to brazenly ask you to help me."
The monk was surprised and asked: "Where did the two monsters come from?"
"No one knows."
Shi Fengchen waved his hand, and a clear light fell on the wall, like a piece of white paper, with more than ten lines of dense handwriting appearing on it.
"The two demon heads killed four people at first in Shangzhou. After the investigation, they had never seen the four people face to face. They probably committed the crime at will. Then it was Chaonan City. They killed Four Sandu disciples died, leaving some clues."
Shi Fengchen continued: "In the following two years, these two demon heads committed crimes one after another, killing a total of more than 70 people, including innocent ordinary people and practitioners. Most of the crimes were for no reason. Just like the first assault, it seems to be acting at will, which shows the brutal nature of his heart."
Many people noticed the Chao Nancheng case, and subconsciously looked at an old man sitting in the middle.
The old man with gray hair and deep breath is exactly the Kunlun school elder He Zhichong.
The Kunlun faction, who had never participated in the banquet of the Four Seas, unexpectedly came to an elder, who thought it should be related to the case in Chaonan City.
He Zhichong did not speak. The Sandu faction is a vassal of the Kunlun faction. If only a few low-level disciples were killed, he would never show up. It's just that the young master of the Sandu faction suffered quite a bit because of this incident, and he remembered it afterwards, saying that the head of the Sandu faction asked Kunlun for help, and he had to go through this.
Someone asked: "What is the realm of the two monsters?"
Shi Fengchen said: "In the early autumn of last year, the master of the Black Dragon Temple, Zhugui, was beheaded to death by a demon across a green mountain, I am afraid that the other party is already in the middle of no sign."
Hearing this, everyone looked different.
The reputation of the host of the Black Dragon Temple, Zhugui, is extremely stinky. I don’t know how many wealthy businessmen have been deceived into bankruptcy, and even the money for the treatment of the poor people is not spared. There are even rumors that he privately **** his daughter and did everything, but this master He had an old relationship with a certain imperial concubine in the palace, and was inconvenient and troubled by various sects.
At this time, listening to Shi Fengchen's words, I realized that this was the reason why this master Zhugui died last year.
Shi Fengchen knew what everyone was thinking, frowned slightly, and stopped talking about the matter, saying: "The two monsters have never been able to start, so there are not many clues. They only know that they are one tall and one short, one male and one male. Girl, cover her face with grey cloth and use flying sword. I wonder if you guys have any thoughts?"
are just these clues, any ideas?
is quiet.
"It has nothing to do with us anyway."
The middle-aged man who spoke with a dark complexion was a monk from Daze, named Zuo Yushi.
Everyone thought it was nonsense, Daze repaired the wind and rain, of course it has nothing to do with you.
Zuo Yushi continued: "Since I use the sword, I still play so well, it is nothing more than the old forest, no grace, and Xihai."
Shi Fengchen shook his head and said: "Although the assassins of Bu Lao Lin are sinister and vicious~IndoMTL.com~, they will not act so presumptuously. As for the door of no grace..."
He didn't finish speaking, but everyone understood what he meant.
In recent years, Wu Enmen has been suppressed by the West Sea very hard, so I don’t have the mood to stir up the wind and rain in the world.
According to reason, the strength of the Wuenmen and the Xihai Sword Sect is almost the same, and the background of the Wuenmen is far better than that of Xihai. However, there is a sword **** in Xihai, this is no way. As for Xihai... Although there is no Xihai swordsmanship in the field, this is Haizhou, Xihai is very powerful, who dares to criticize it easily?
Someone suddenly said: "Why no one suspects the Qingshanzong? The murder first occurred in Shangzhou, and then Chaonancheng, which is the realm of the Qingshanzong."
Everyone was surprised, thinking that this person was so kind, and he dared to doubt the Green Mountain Sect.
After seeing who that person is, everyone will understand the reason.
The man was called Takesuke, and it was the lay brother of the murdered Heilong Temple who presided over Zhugui.
Thinking about these things, everyone's eyes naturally fell to an inconspicuous corner.
There are two young people sitting there.
wearing cyan sword robes, they have not spoken from beginning to end, so they are very low-key.
The one with a calm expression is called Yao Songshan, and he is the eleventh disciple of the Qingshan School of Two Forgotten Peaks.
The younger disciple is called Lin Yingliang. Now he is learning swords at Mount Shiyue, and this time he was brought out to practice by Yao Songshan.
Songshan looked over there, without speaking, but his eyes were extremely sharp, like a real sword.
Lin Yingliang did not hold back, staring at Takesuke and said, "Do you want to die?"
……

(Qingshan should be fine, still so arrogant.)
