The sudden appearance of the sacrificial weapon Ming Ring puzzled Yu Huo, but the copper lock key hidden in the master's room reminded Yu Huo.
The master hid this key in his bedroom, so he must have the intention behind Jingshui Tower.
As long as he finds the purpose of this key, he will naturally be able to solve the confusion in Yu Huo's heart.
"Master Lu, apart from living in his own room, is there any place that Master likes or frequents frequently?"
Yu Huo's sudden question reminded Lu Chengfeng that before Jing Shui Lou disappeared, apart from studying the secrets of acupuncture, he didn't have many hobbies, nor any other bad habits. He only liked to go to one place.
This place is not far from the altar headquarters, and there is a reservoir just two kilometers away. Jing Shui likes to come here to fish.
This information from Lu Chengfeng made Yu Huo think of something.
Since Master Jingshuilou has hidden this key like a treasure, it naturally has its importance, so could it be related to this reservoir?
But this is just Yu Huo's guess. Before verifying his guess, it is not appropriate to alert the snake, let alone let Lu Chengfeng and the Twelve Guardians know the existence of this copper lock. After all, Master Jingshui Tower has never disclosed this key to the outside world. Said it publicly.
"What's wrong, Ah Huo, did you find something? Are there any clues about your master's disappearance?"
Lu Chengfeng was a little nervous. After all, he had some feelings or more complaints about this senior brother who came and went without a trace.
Seeing that Lu Chengfeng was aware of it, Yu Huo quickly changed the subject and said, "No, I was just asking casually. By the way, hurry up and prepare for the handover ceremony of the sect master."
Yu Huo aside, Lu Chengfeng was somewhat disappointed, but he couldn't force it. After all, Yu Huo was now the sect leader of the Corpse Sewing lineage. In front of the sect leader, no matter who he was, there was no reason for him to do the following, even if Lu Chengfeng He is Yu Huo's elder, this is the rule, the rule of the corpse-stitching lineage.
When they came to the altar, the twelve guardians each held a torch burning with blazing fire. They formed a circle with the twelve zodiac signs as the boundaries, like guardians, which meant that the corpse-stitching community was united as one, helping each other, supporting each other, and working together. Xiang grand event.
A large bronze cauldron stands majestically in the center of the altar. Inside the cauldron, a column of incense is burning brightly. Nine incense burners are placed around the cauldron, one of which is the main incense burner with three incense sticks on it. Each of the eight incense burners holds an incense stick, and the incense continues to burn, creating a prosperous scene of continuous incense.
The corpse-stitching lineage has not had such a lively event for a long time. This made the twelve guardians on the side feel sad and happy, and even made Lu Chengfeng shed tears of emotion.
This long-lost sense of intimacy, accompanied by the return of Yu Huo, allowed these old people to find their passionate days and regain their passionate youth.
The appearance of Yuhuo and the successors gave them comfort and also allowed them to see a glimmer of hope for the revival of the Corpse Sewing lineage.
Lu Chengfeng held a tea tray in both hands, covered with red cloth, which gave the things under the red cloth a layer of mystery, making everyone look forward to the moment when the red cloth was unveiled.
Lu Chengfeng came to the center of the altar, placed the tea tray on the table, came to the main incense burner, lit three incense sticks, put them in, and muttered something. As for what words he read, he also No one understands, and no one cares whether they understand or not.
After offering incense, Lu Chengfeng arranged the tributes on the table and bowed respectfully three times. Then he picked up the tea tray and turned around to stand in front of Yu Huo.
Yu Huo knelt down on one knee, lowered his head, raised his hands, and took the tea tray. Lu Chengfeng put a few drops of wine in the wine bowl with his index and middle fingers, and after dripping it on Yu Huo's forehead, he turned around and faced everyone, Gao Shen said : "The handover ceremony of the door master begins..."
I saw Yu Huo stand up, holding the tea tray in one hand, and with the other hand he uncovered the red cloth covering the tea tray, and saw something suddenly appeared on the tea tray. This thing was not a rare thing, but an ordinary and incomparable stick. No more ordinary embroidery needles.
But there is a strange thing about this embroidery needle, that is, the needle does not have a real eye, but has needle points at both ends, which puzzles everyone and makes Yu Huo confused.
Seeing everyone's astonishment, Lu Chengfeng personally picked up the embroidery needle with two needle-points at both ends and said seriously: "I think everyone knows that the people who sew corpses have been making money from the dead since ancient times. Such a small embroidery needle, but the reason why the line of corpse stitching can continue to be passed down to this day is not relying on this needle, but on our successive corpse stitchers. The corpse stitchers respect the deceased and devote their whole life to the remains of the deceased. , but he also paid a heavy price for it. In order to continue the cigarette line of corpse sewing, the ancestor made a special rule, that is, using the double-headed needle as a sign, he ordered all the disciples of the corpse sewing line in the world to Serving as a teacher."
Lu Chengfeng told the origin of the double-headed needle, but he did not explain the taboo of showing flowers with double-headed needles. The double-headed needle originally means threading a needle through both ends without leading the thread, which means washing hands in a golden basin.
Being in the lineage of sewing corpses and dealing with the dead for a long time, the Yin Qi accumulated over time has become too strong. The ancestor will damage the Yang life of the disciples, so he specially made the rule for this double-headed embroidery needle.
Although it is an unwritten rule, there is already a consensus among the sect. Whenever a double-headed embroidery needle is passed from one generation to the next, it means that the person taking over the baton can no longer do this threading thing.
The reason why Lu Chengfeng gave this double-ended embroidery needle at the handover ceremony was to get Yu Huo out of this situation of being in the company of the dead and constantly in the company of the dead.
Lu Chengfeng had good intentions, but Yu Huo did not accept his kindness. After all, the corpse-stitching lineage was left alone, which had a lot to do with the broken rules set by the ancestor.
In order for the Corpse Sewing lineage to take off the label of being a heretic and become a leader in the Feng Shui world, the first thing that needs to be changed is the too many dogmatic restrictions set in the sect in the past.
Yu Huo threw the double-headed embroidery needle into the bronze cauldron and said loudly: "Dear seniors, brothers and sisters in the sect, what the corpse-stitching line needs is an innovator, or an innovator. We don't May I be like a rat crossing the street every day, being accustomed to the existence of evil spirits and heretics.”
Yu Huo's inspiring words immediately aroused everyone's cheers and agreement, which caught Lu Chengfeng and the Twelve Guardians off guard.
But Yu Huo's actions gave Lu Chengfeng enough face to go down the stairs, and also allowed Yu Huo to take this opportunity to obtain many vassal opportunities.
Obviously, Yu Huo saw the critically ill Sewing Corpse lineage and urgently needed fresh blood, and even more needed a leader who could carry this banner.
And Yu Huo is the chosen one.
Yu Huo's tough attitude made everyone present feel the inner aura and intimidation, but it did not cause dissatisfaction on the scene, including Lu Chengfeng, because it was Yu Huo's tough attitude that made Xiu, who had been aggrieved for too long, Corpse Yimai saw the hope and dawn of turning over.
"Ah Huo, I support you unreservedly."
Lu Chengfeng was not angry because Yu Huo discarded the double-ended embroidery needle. Instead, he was the first to stand up and support Yu Huo. This allowed Yu Huo to take the first step in the sect.
With the support of Lu Chengfeng, an elder in the sect, the Twelve Guardians naturally had no other objections. Yu Huo got the key thirteen votes without any suspense, and finally took the seat firmly with an absolute advantage. The door master's seat.
Yu Huo took over as the leader of the Corpse Sewing Sect and did not disclose it to the public. Moreover, Yu Huo's current public identity is Wu Ya, and Yu Huo is actually dead. In order to ensure Yu Huo's safety, it is natural that he Be reserved.
On this issue, in order to prevent Yu Huo from revealing his true identity, Lu Chengfeng and the Twelve Guardians cooperated very well and successfully helped Yu Huo pass this level.
For most people in the sect, the life and death of Yu Huo is not important, and who is the sect leader is not important. What is important is who can lead everyone to clear the name of the Corpse Sewing Lineage, who is the boss of the Corpse Sewing Lineage.
Now Yu Huo has the sacrificial weapon Ming Ring in his hand. The one who obtains the Ming Ring will conquer the world. Whoever holds the Ming Ring will naturally recognize him as the master of this sect. There is no doubt about this.
However, within this sect, there are also forces hiding in the dark, watching Yu Huo's every move. Therefore, Yu Huo needs to be more careful in his next actions. After all, this person who stabbed the back is... is the most dangerous enemy.
After the handover ceremony of the door master, Yu Huo needs to find the use of this copper lock as soon as possible. Master Jing Shui Lou is not a mystical person, nor is he a fan of collecting copper locks. There is only one possible explanation, and that is this There must be an ulterior secret hidden behind the copper lock.
As for the secret behind this, it is still unknown. Maybe it is connected in some sense with the disappearance of the master Jingshuilou, which is not a bad idea.
So Yu Huo didn't dare to think about whether the master's disappearance was directly related to the murders that happened one after another in Jiang Hai. After all, in these murders, the murderer's methods and clues vaguely pointed to the line of sewing corpses.
Apart from his master Jing Shui Lou, Yu Huo could not think of anyone else who could possess such a superb skill in sewing corpses. This was extremely scary to think about.
Yu Huo needs to find the truth as soon as possible, and the way to find the truth is to find the reason why his master Jing Shuilou disappeared as soon as possible, and this has become the only breakthrough at the moment.
Yu Huo knew clearly that those who could kill people in the name of art were not as simple as killing people and selling goods, or buying murderers for revenge.
From the perspective of criminal psychology, the motive for killing is most likely related to his growth experience, or he has experienced some major changes, which has led to psychological distortions and defects, so he can find out through this abnormal killing method. Spiritual pleasure, to be precise, is spiritual comfort.
However, in Yu Huo's memory, Master Jing Shui Lou's psychological quality was extremely good, and he had never experienced any major changes, so his motive for killing was not established. Moreover, with Jing Shui Lou's style, even if he wanted to kill someone, he would not be able to kill someone. Revealing such a big flaw, wouldn't this set you on fire?
Based on this inference, the suspicion of Jingshui Tower has been basically eliminated, so who could be the murderer? And why do you want to deliberately draw this fire to the body of Sewing Corpse?
Could it be the rumored 'Five Immortal Guards'?
Yu Huo thought about this mysterious organization again. Zhuo Tingguan had been poisoned by the 'Five Immortal Guards' before, and then Xu Maochun, the president of the Yixue Association, killed 'Plum Blossom Brand'. Is there any connection between the two? Directly related?
Yu Huo suddenly made a bold guess. Assuming that the person who put the poison on Zhuo Ting was the "Five Immortal Guards", and the person who killed Xu Maochun was from the corpse-stitching lineage, then who among the "Five Immortal Guards" Are there people who can sew corpses?
If this hypothesis is true, then apart from the master Jing Shui Lou who has such superb corpse sewing techniques, is there anyone else whose techniques have reached such a level of proficiency?
Yu Huo's thoughts reached a deadlock, because in his impression, apart from his master and his uncle, there was no third person.
Yu Huo once again opened the 'Flower Language of Corpses', hoping to find some inspiration and breakthroughs from this book that recorded the wisdom and techniques of the ancestor.
