The death of Yan Muyan in Shenyin Pavilion spread throughout the Northern Territory.
And the news that Cangshan killed the sects of 100,000 Mountains and intended to unify 100,000 Mountains also spread to the whole world.
King Xiang Ji of Chu rebelled, and many forces took advantage of the chaos.
This is nothing unusual.
What's important is why Cangshan has the strength to unify the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Just when people are confused, countless rumors are circulating in the world.
The most widely spread rumor is that Cangshan colluded with Night Ghost and obtained the power of Night Ghost, so he was able to make Baiyan Valley and many other sects surrender in one day.
In response, Cangshan did not respond and continued to sweep Shiwandashan.
If you don't surrender to Cangshan, there is only one way to die.
In just three days, all the sects in Shiwan Mountain, except Shenyin Pavilion and Sanqu Duandao Sect, surrendered to Cangshan Mountain.
The power of the tenth grade master shown by Cang Biejie was able to make those sect masters lose their belief in resistance.
Within three days, Yan Muyan's funeral continued in Shenyin Pavilion.
Even the sects who surrendered to Cangshan came to express their condolences.
The disciples of Shenyin Pavilion have also been looking for traces of Li Haomiao.
"There are still four days." Yu Zhi said melancholy, "Waiting for Master Yan Pavilion to be laid to rest. Cang Biere will definitely force Shenyin Pavilion."
Yu Zhi looked at Feng Tianyi beside him and said, "That day in the mourning hall, you also felt the aura of Night Ghost. Cang Bielie was undoubtedly colluding with Night Ghost. Where are you people from the Ghost Hunting Pavilion?"
Feng Tianyi was also confused. He didn't get any response after calling him.
"It stands to reason that Senior Brother Yun has received my summons a long time ago. Besides, the Shiwandashan incident has caused such a fuss. He shouldn't not know about it."
Xiao Jingyao also came to Shenyin Pavilion, accompanied by two royal family members who had opened the ninth grade monument.
After arriving in the north, Xiao Jingyao learned about what happened in Shenyin Pavilion and hurried over.
Li Chuchen was placed in Qinggu and protected by Yan Zimu.
Xiao Jamyao opened his mouth, but did not speak, but took a sip of tea.
Seeing Xiao Jingyao's actions, Yu Zhi said, "Your Highness, let's go out for a walk."
Xiao Jingyao understood and followed Yu Zhi out of the mourning hall.
Yu Zhi spoke bluntly and said, "If you have anything to say, don't hide it."
Xiao Jamyao still held half a cup of tea in his hand. He placed the teacup on the railing and looked back at Feng Tianyi and Xiong Da.
"I don't think Yun Ange will show up."
Hearing this, Yu Zhi frowned and said, "You mean Feng Tianyi didn't send a message to Yun Ange?"
Xiao Jingyao shook his head and said: "That's not the case. This Brother Feng has nothing to do with the city. I believe he has already sent a message to Yun Ange. But whether Yun Ange comes, and whether the Ghost Hunting Pavilion is willing to take care of this matter is another matter. Son."
In Yu Zhi's view, as long as it is involved with Night Ghost, the Ghost Hunting Pavilion will not let go of any clues.
Xiao Jingyao continued to explain: "Before Ghost Hunting Pavilion was born, I met Yun Ange. He is an arrogant person. Of course, people like him also have the capital to be arrogant. However, he is also a ruthless person who has not reached the level of A ruthless person whose purpose justifies the means.”
Yu Zhi looked at Xiao Jingyao in confusion and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Yu Zhi didn't know much about Yun Ange. I only know from Feng Tianyi that Yun Ange is very strong.
Xiao Jingyao drank the remaining half cup of tea and gathered some thoughts, with some anger in his voice.
"Since the advent of the Ghost Hunting Pavilion, night ghosts all over the world have suffered blows. But after all, some night ghosts are extremely cunning, and the ghost hunters of the Ghost Hunting Pavilion have repeatedly failed to succeed."
"Then, Yun'an Ge took action. In addition to those night ghosts, two Lingkui who opened the ninth grade of the Monument also died in Yun'an Ge."
Yu Zhi said: "Is there any problem with this?"
Xiao Jingyao sneered twice and said: "The price is a small town and the lives of thousands of people. Yun Ange used the people of a small town to lure out the night ghosts, but he did not take action immediately. Until the night ghosts slaughtered the town , Ling Kui after Night Ghost appeared, and Yun Ange took the opportunity to kill them all."
"Many night ghosts died, and two Lingkui of the ninth grade of the Open Monument also died. They had great military achievements. But thousands of my people in Dachu died, including newborn babies and those who were pregnant with Liujia. Woman. Haha, the appearance of the Ghost Hunting Pavilion... is not necessarily a good thing."
Yu Zhi's face was cold and he turned to look at Feng Tianyi in the mourning hall.
Use the common people as bait to trap and kill night ghosts.
Even if the night ghosts are killed, all these people will die.
Xiao Jingyao was not a cold-blooded person, and these dead people were all the people of Da Chu.
"You can't place your hopes on the Ghost Hunting Pavilion." Yu Zhi whispered.
"Yun Ange received the summons and learned about the events in the North. But why didn't he show up? What is certain is that the Ghost Hunting Pavilion will not let the night ghosts go. But in addition to killing the night ghosts, Yun Ange must also I have other plans.”
Looking back, Yu Zhi asked Xiao Jingyao: "Did Emperor Chu just ignore Yun Ange doing such a tragic thing?"
Xiao Jamyao smiled bitterly and clenched the teacup in his hand. "Father is furious. There seems to be no other way but to be furious."
"Xiang Ji rebelled in Nanzhou Prefecture, and Anmo Mountain in West Mo Prefecture ceded territory and became king... The chaos everywhere has left the court with no extra thoughts to prevent these things."
Yu Zhi sighed. He could understand it, but he couldn't agree with it.
"If things continue like this, even if all the night ghosts die, all the people in the world will also die."
After saying that, Yu Zhi walked towards the mourning hall, leaving Xiao Jingyao alone.
Returning to the mourning hall, Yu Zhi said to Feng Tianyi: "Brother Feng, you are eating and drinking here. If disaster strikes, don't be the first to run away."
When Feng Tianyi heard this, he immediately became angry.
"Who do you think I am? Since I have something to do with Night Ghost, even if I can't defeat that Cang Biejie, I won't stand idly by. This is a disgrace to my Ghost Hunting Pavilion."
Yu Zhi didn't speak again.
Still have to find Uncle Li. Whether it's to save Pavilion Master Yan or to deal with Cang Biejie, he is needed.
But where did this guy go?
...
In front of Gutian Tower, the tower guard was drinking wine and looking at the mountain peaks that had changed little for hundreds of years.
More than two months ago, a cold woman in red came to Gutian Tower.
The tower guardian can sense the aura of the Lingkui clan on the opponent.
The tower guardian is extremely familiar with this kind of aura.
There are countless such atmospheres in the other world in this tower. Every few years, this aura will riot, constantly attacking the seal of Gutian Tower.
As the millennium passed, the power of the seal weakened, and the power at the bottom of the tower became stronger and stronger.
Fortunately, Li Haomiao helped many times and suppressed Gutian Tower.
Facing the aura of the Lingkui tribe, the tower guard wanted to kill him, but Li Haomiao appeared.
The aloof woman is Fei Ying. This is Li Wantong's condition for agreeing to Fei Ying in order to save Yu Zhi - to enter Gutian Tower and return to the ancestral land of the Lingkui tribe.
Li Wantong did not tell Yu Zhi about this, nor did he want Yu Zhi to know.
The tower guard has selfish motives, and it is his duty to kill Feiying or suppress Feiying.
Feiying put forward conditions.
Let her return to the ancestral land, and the Lingkui of the ancestral land will not attack the seal within three years.
The tower keeper gladly accepted the exchange. For him, after three years, he is no longer a tower keeper.
Feiying entered the Gutian Tower and returned to the ancestral land of the Lingkui tribe through the passage at the bottom of the tower.
time flies. Two months passed in a hurry.
Since Feiying returned to her ancestral land, Gutian Tower has never had any changes that impacted the seal.
The tower guard spent two months leisurely, looking at the peaks and mountains around Gutian Tower that had not changed for hundreds of years, and at the different clouds every day.
Suddenly, the north wind blew, and a scholar carrying a bookcase came from the sky.
Ru Yan took every step slowly, but in just a few steps, he appeared in front of the tower guard.
After Ruyi Zhen said goodbye, Ru Yan stopped reading and put all the valuable ancient books into the book box.
Some truths cannot be learned from books.
The tower guard glanced at Ru Yan through his messy long hair and continued drinking.
"Even you were born. It seems that the catastrophe is really about to come true."
Ru Yan followed the tower guard's gaze and saw the clouds in the sky.
He said calmly: "The Ghost Hunting Pavilion has been born, and the people are facing disaster. We will do our best to kill the night ghosts and resolve the disaster."
The tower guard smiled silently and shook his head.
"A few days ago, the Ghost Hunting Pavilion killed many night ghosts in Cangzhou Prefecture, and many people died. They used humans as bait. When people died, so did the night ghosts. Ruyan, do you think the night ghosts died first? , it’s better for our human race to die first.”
Confucianism's expression remains unchanged, neither happy nor sad. "This is an unavoidable sacrifice. If the human race wants to..."
In the middle of the sentence, the tower guard interrupted: "I have been guarding in front of this tower for three hundred years and have never left this tower. I have heard many stories in front of this tower. There are people who sell their daughters for glory. There are people who regard thieves as their fathers...I can understand the world's harsh conditions."
"However..." the tower guard paused, put down the wine gourd, and said, "Let me tell you a story."
Ru Yan looked at the tower guard and motioned for him to continue.
The tower guard said with great interest: "A carriage was galloping on the mountain road. When it was about to pass a fork in the road, the horse was frightened and rushed forward crazily."
"Now the coachman has two choices. Along the original road, he will hit a family of five."
"On the left side of the road is a pregnant woman."
"The carriage cannot stop, but the driver can control the direction in which the carriage travels."
The words fell and stopped abruptly.
Ru Yan asked: "Then what? How did the coachman choose?"
The tower guard did not answer, but said: "Ru Yan, you have read a lot of books. If you were a coachman, what would you choose?"
Ru Yan fell silent, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. He felt that this question was not difficult to answer, so he opened his mouth but made no sound.
The tower guard was not in a hurry and took a slow sip of wine.
"What if it was the woman on your left? What would you think?"
Ru Yan put himself into it. He saw a carriage rushing towards him. He subconsciously protected the child in his belly and used his body to block the carriage.
In the end, he was knocked away, killing two people.
He was thinking: I don’t want to die. This is obviously not my fault, so why did the carriage turn, and why did I sacrifice myself and my children to save that family of five?
Ru Yan was sweating profusely, as if he had experienced a nightmare.
The tower guard sneered at Ru Yan, and the laughter seemed to say: Just look. You want to live too. So, what is sacrifice?
Aren’t pregnant women the same people who were sacrificed as bait?
