The collapse of Tianmen Lingxin Tower completely cut off contact between Wang Ling and the outside world, which also made everyone wonder what happened to the outside world. However, the corpse slaves and blood slaves from Linguan County also showed that Tianmen County was not the only one to suffer this catastrophe. It could even be said that without Jiang You's advance warning, many places might have been worse than Tianmen.
This also makes Wang Ling seem to be the only place in this area that has not been occupied, so that many people from surrounding villages and towns have fled. Although this has strengthened the guard force of Wang Ling, more monsters have also been attracted. .
Although Wang Ling has powerful barrier defenses, these barriers also require spiritual stones or spiritual power to maintain. We don’t know how long this catastrophe will last, so everyone must do their best while the barrier is still in effect. May hunt monsters and demon slaves.
In addition, internal personnel management was also a big problem, so the management of the cemetery was also very busy. Only when the monster offensive was relatively weak did Luo Fei think of Lin Yan who was still locked up in the inner palace.
But what she didn't expect was that after she and Shixiu opened the Luoyan Hall, they found that Lin Yan, who was supposed to be next to the marrow refining furnace, was missing. The two of them didn't know how Lin Yan left Luoyan Palace, so they could only search around the inner palace, hoping that things would not become beyond their control.
Countless possibilities also appeared in their minds, and they even suspected that Lin Yan was a peerless master who had hidden his cultivation and found an excuse to enter the inner palace for an ulterior purpose.
But when they saw the scene in the armor room, their brains short-circuited for a moment. Lin Yan was still normal. She was kneeling in the house to worship King Zhongwu's armor. This was completely normal for a descendant of a hero who died for King Zhongwu. On the contrary, Shishuang was a little strange. She was only disheveled, and she was also wearing an exquisite bellyband. The two of them knew this bellyband. It was the one that Lin Yan took off when she was taking a bath.
"Sister, the prince's body is still cold, but you are doing such a thing here!" Shi Xiu frowned.
Jiang You was speechless for a moment, but he couldn't find a perfect explanation, so he could only change the subject and said: "The two seniors misunderstood. Senior Shishuang only brought me to pay homage to the prince at my request."
So she controlled Shishuang's body and said, "Yes, I promised her a few days ago, but I was too busy some time ago, so I only have time now."
"Really?" Luo Fei nodded slightly, "In that case, everything is easy to explain, except why my sister is wearing the special envoy's bellyband."
"This is a reward given to me by the special envoy. Don't you know, this is a top-quality spiritual weapon." Shi Shuang explained.
"The best spiritual weapon!" The two of them couldn't help but be moved. Although the spiritual weapon was of little use to them based on their cultivation, the word "best" was enough to make them covet it, because it was something that could be encountered but not sought. Not only can it grow through sacrifice, but it is also necessary for refining psychic equipment.
You must know why there are only magic weapon-level battle armors in this armor room. That is because King Zhongwu later obtained a top-quality magic weapon-level battle armor, which eventually grew into a psychic treasure and became his southern treasure. The ultimate weapon in the Northern War. It's a pity that after the death of King Zhongwu, this armor was also missing. It should have been turned into ashes together with King Zhongwu's body.
In short, not only are psychic treasures far more powerful than treasures of the same level, they can even be cultivated and grown independently. They are often the greatest heritage of a large family, which also makes the price of top-quality spiritual weapons rise. As a gift, it can be said to be precious. .
So Luo Fei no longer dwelled on the scene just now. Since everyone was here, she asked directly: "How long have you been in the marrow refining furnace?"
Seven days? If this were told, wouldn't it cause a huge stir? So Jiang Youye had to keep a low profile and put his only five high-grade spiritual stones into Luo Fei's spiritual stone bag.
"I don't know." Jiang You shook his head and said, "I forgot everything at that time. I didn't come out until I couldn't bear it anymore. I spent a few days in Luoyan Point in the middle of nowhere. I really can't remember how long I stayed."
Jiang You then sent the spirit stone bag to Luo Fei and said, "This is your spirit stone, return it to you."
Luo Fei clicked, but found that there was one less spirit stone inside, and adding the one given by Shi Xiu before, that means two were used.
"Have you added spiritual stones to it?" Luo Fei asked hurriedly.
"Yes." Jiang You nodded, "It seems that I added it once, but I couldn't help it and came out after a while, wasting a spiritual stone."
Luo Fei nodded slightly. She didn't expect Lin Yan to actually survive the whole day, but it didn't seem to surpass Fairy Feng Yao's record. After all, Feng Yao had completed a Great Zhoutian after one day. But even so, it is very impressive, considering that King Zhongwu could only stay for one day.
"You didn't hide a spirit stone on purpose to deceive us, did you?" Luo Fei probed.
In fact, if Jiang You had other spiritual stones, he would definitely add them, but the fact was that she didn't, so she smiled bitterly and said, "I really don't have any. If you don't believe me, you can search my storage ring."
"Then you're welcome." Luo Fei said and actually took Jiang You's storage ring. After all, she had many questions about Jiang You and had long wanted to find an opportunity to investigate.
It's just the fact that she was disappointed. Jiang You's important belongings were all placed in the consciousness space, and the storage ring really didn't have many important things.
But she still found something, that is, there really were no high-grade spiritual stones in the storage ring, which also proved that it had really lasted a day in the marrow refining furnace, and the ring also had a lot of materials and semi-finished products for refining spiritual weapons. , this also tells her that Lin Yan can actually refine spiritual weapons with Qi training. These two qualities are enough for her to crush the so-called geniuses in the capital.
"I never expected that Tianmen would be able to produce a talent like you. No wonder Yun Manluo would choose to sworn sworn sworn friends with you." Luo Fei shook her head slightly and said, "By the way, since you have been practicing in the marrow refining furnace for so long, why are there no signs of breakthrough? "
Jiang You smiled bitterly. Others could break through the foundation building with just one spiritual energy liquefaction, but she needed to overcome the tribulation to break through. The inner palace was now in a sealed state and could not sense the thunder tribulation at all.
"There's still a little bit left. Maybe we can break through when we get the opportunity?" Jiang You prevaricated.
Shishuang also took the opportunity to say: "I suddenly came to a realization recently. I am about to lead the thunder platform to overcome the tribulation and break through. Perhaps the special envoy can use my small thunder tribulation to break through and build the foundation."
"In that case, let's have more seniors." Jiang You also played a double act, and by chance, Shi Shuang became her excuse to hide the thunder disaster.
"Without further delay, let's go to the thunder platform and bring your entourage with us. This can be regarded as my return gift to you." After Shishuang finished speaking, she pulled Jiang You towards the door.
Luo Fei didn't stop him, which made Jiang You let out a long sigh of relief. The matter was finally over.
After Shi Shuang left, Shi Xiu asked Luo Fei, "Do you believe what they said?"
"Half truth and half lie, I just hope Sister Shishuang will not betray the palace, and I hope Lin Yan has no bad intentions." Luo Fei said and walked to the armor, her expression suddenly became surprised.
"Someone passed through it! There is still the aroma of spiritual marrow liquid in it. Lin Yan must have been too anxious and forgot to clean it up." Luo Fei said in disbelief.
"Impossible!" Shixiu said in surprise, "Does this armor have the mark of the prince's soul? Isn't she looking for death by wearing it? Could it be that she is the prince? Is this impossible? But if this is the case, what will Sister Shishuang do? It’s not difficult to understand that he took off his clothes and sleeves.”
"You can't make premature judgments." Luo Fei shook her head and said, "After all, there are many ways in this world to prevent treasures from backlash, just like Princess Zixiao's inner demon secret."
"But what if she is really the prince?" Shixiu asked unwillingly.
"This is the scariest thing." Luo Fei shook her head and said, "If she is really the prince, then whose ashes are on the stage? What happened outside the customs? The most important thing is why she doesn't recognize us, Is it possible that one of us has betrayed her?"
Shixiu nodded and asked, "Then what should we do?"
"Clean the traces on the armor and pretend nothing happened. Also, see if there is anything missing in Fengyao Palace." Luo Fei replied.
The two quickly started searching in the palace. Ten minutes later, Shixiu shook his head helplessly and said, "It seems that nothing is missing. Everything in the list is there."
Luo Fei just stared at the urn and said, "The urn has been replaced."
Shi Xiu was shocked, but she still asked: "How did you see it?"
Luofei shook her head slightly and said, "Do you remember what I said some time ago that I seem to sense other people's spiritual imprints from the urn."
"Remember." Shixiu nodded; "But you also said that it may be an illusion caused by over-cultivation. It's just that your perception ability has always been very strong as you have been practicing ethereal arts, so it is not common for you to have illusions. "
"That was just a test on my whim." Luo Fei said with a bitter smile, "To be honest, I have never wanted to believe that the prince has left like this, so I made this self-righteous joke. I didn't expect that someone would actually take it seriously. If no one has a guilty conscience , how could she replace the ashes?"
"What should we do? The ashes have been replaced by others. That is a serious crime." Shi Xiu said nervously.
"It doesn't matter, the ashes were fake to begin with. But she did it so that I don't know if it's really fake as well." Luo Fei shook her head.
"You mean the prince is not dead?" Shixiu said in surprise, "Then why doesn't he come back to us?"
Luo Fei sighed softly: "I'm afraid things are more complicated than they appear. Don't tell anyone what happened today. I will investigate the rest slowly."
In Luo Fei's view, there are only two possibilities for King Zhongwu to live. One is that King Zhongwu takes the initiative to retire. After all, Huo Qing has been in a very embarrassing situation before this. His ability is so strong that the court has no choice but to He was appointed, but his casual appearance and aloof character prevented him from entering the core of the imperial court. The imperial court has also been promoting him on the surface, but in fact seizing power. If it were not for the unrest on the border, I am afraid that even the military power would have been taken away. .
Not to mention that the court has been conniving at the public opinion's vilification of Huo Qing. His greed for money and lust is his biggest black material. There are even rumors that some officials were killed because of their concubines, and Huo Qing also did it for him. To reduce the emperor's suspicion of him, he could only choose to acquiesce and cooperate. This kind of vilification continued until Huo Qing died and he turned to praise. After all, Huo Qingdu is dead. Instead of continuing to frame him pointlessly, it is better to package him as a tool for propaganda.
Under such a situation, it is not incomprehensible that Huo Qing chose to fake his death and retire, but if this is the case, it is difficult to explain that so many people died.
There is only one possibility left. The prince was murdered, but the operation was not completely successful, so he used fake ashes to hide it.
It can only be said that the new urn is exactly the same as the original urn. The ashes inside even have a faint mark of Huo Qing. It should be that some items that Huo Qing used during his lifetime were added. But this is different from the fake box Luo Fei placed, because not only does the fake box have some additional marks, but even the ashes inside are not human.
But then, where is the prince? If it was Lin Yan, why didn't she admit it? Did they replace the ashes, or was it someone else?
Thinking of this, Luo Fei felt that her brain was not full, but she knew that Lin Yan was a very important entry point, and she might be able to solve the mystery through her.
