Chapter 1872
After coming down the mountain, Xiao Lintian asked Black Eagle Jiutian to deliver a message to Qinshan. He and Pei Yu went to Dongyuan Village, which was dozens of miles away from Silver Wing Palace, to look for Wen Renjin's chief disciple, who was also the left guardian stone of Silver Wing Palace. Glory.
It was impossible for Xiao Lintian to find the people on Wen Renjin's list one by one. If he wanted to quickly summon the disciples of the Silver Wing Palace who had been dismissed by Wen Renjin, Shi Rong was the key figure.
Wen Renjin said that if you find Shi Rong, you can find all his disciples, because Shi Rong has the contact information of all of them.
But when Xiao Lintian and Pei Yu arrived at Dongyuan Village, they were still late. Most of the villagers in Dongyuan Village had been massacred, and the government was leading people to move out the corpses one by one.
Xiao Lintian and Pei Yu had already put on human skin masks, and Pei Yu pretended to be looking for relatives and stepped forward to inquire about the news.
After asking, I learned that Dongyuan Village was looted by a group of robbers last night. Most of the wealthy families in the village were looted. The worst thing was the Shi family at the end of the village. More than 20 members of the family were killed.
Xiao Lintian frowned when he heard this.
What a coincidence, the Shi family was robbed last night, and the Silver Wing Palace was also massacred today.
He remembered what Wen Renjin had said to him before, that there was a mole in the Silver Wing Palace, and those formations were leaked to the Grand Imperial Master by the mole, so he allowed the Grand Imperial Master and his entourage to go to the Silver Wing Palace as if they were on the ground.
Could it be that Shi Rong is the mole?
Xiao Lintian gave up this idea when he saw the Shi family being carried out.
I saw that several people in the Shi family had signs of being tortured, and one of them, a child of five or six years old, had half of his head chopped off with a knife.
If Shi Rong was a traitor, he would never attack his family and children.
Xiao Lintian immediately thought of Jiang Hua, the right protector of Silver Wing Palace.
The two guardians of Silver Wing Palace are both high-ranking and powerful, and Shi Rong is more favored by Wen Renjin. Could it be that Jiang Hua is jealous of Shi Rong, so he was bribed by the great master this time and became a mole?
To find out this, just find Jiang Hua and see if he is okay.
Just as Xiao Lintian was about to call Pei Yu away, he saw a man wearing a bamboo hat standing not far away, watching the officers and soldiers carry the corpses. His body was trembling slightly, as if he was trying to control his emotions.
Seeing Xiao Lintian looking at him, the man lowered his hat, took a few steps back, got into the crowd and quickly walked out of the village.
"Second brother, let's go!"
Xiao Lintian greeted Pei Yu and quickly chased him out. If he guessed correctly, that person should be Shi Rong.
Although Pei Yu didn't know what happened, he quickly followed him.
The man in front of him was Shi Rong. He didn't look back, but he could feel that the man staring at him had been following him.
Shi Rong was anxious and quickened his pace, but Xiao Lintian also speeded up.
Shi Rong heard the other party's footsteps getting closer and closer, and ran into the woods in a flash.
When Xiao Lintian chased him into the woods, Shi Rong jumped down from a tree and slashed at Xiao Lintian with his knife, roaring angrily.
"You are still unwilling to stop after killing my family? I will go on a killing spree today. I will kill you first, and then I will kill that thief Jiang Hua!"
Xiao Lin, who would let him hit him, dodged it in a flash, swept back, stood on the tree, and shouted sternly: "Shi Rong, look at what this is?"
Xiao Lintian showed off the symbol of the Lord of the Silver Wing Palace given to him by Wen Renjin...a silver badge shaped like wings.
"I am Xiao Lintian, the new palace master of Silver Wing Palace. Shi Rong, why don't you pay your respects to me?"
Shi Rong looked up and saw the badge, with a look of surprise on his face, and then roared: "Do you want to pretend to be the palace master with just a badge? Do you think I have been deceived?"
"If you want me to believe you, tell me what the palace master said to me last time, and I will believe you!"
