"What? Mo Shenji! Isn't he dead?" Lin Yan exclaimed and quickly covered his mouth after speaking.
Since the old man is now standing in front of him, there must be another reason for what happened back then.
Mr. Qiu also turned his questioning eyes to Mr. Zhang, no, it was Mo Shenji.
The latter sighed slightly, and then said: "What happened back then was really too sudden. I accidentally got the news that a material that I urgently needed for weapon refining was found here, so I brought my disciples here."
"Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived here, I was besieged by a group of masked masters, and all the disciples were killed or injured. Thinking about it afterwards, this matter was a trap from the beginning, a trap specifically targeted at me and the entire Momen!"
Qiu Lao also nodded when he heard this. Back then, the sect was suddenly besieged, and even the elders and disciples who went out were intercepted and killed. The huge sect was destroyed overnight, and there was definitely an invisible big hand behind it controlling everything. .
Mo Shenji continued: "The enemy was really too strong back then. There were even two Xiantian realm experts hiding among them. We fought desperately to break out of the encirclement and tried our best to break out of the encirclement."
"However, the enemy is chasing after me. Their target is me, and they will never give up until they kill me! The "Thousand-faced Ghost" who came out with me disguised himself as me, and took the remaining few... A disciple led the enemy away, and I survived in such humiliation."
"Originally, I planned to return to the sect as soon as possible to report the matter, but unfortunately it was too late! When I went back, the sect had been destroyed. Alas, it's all my fault! If I could have arrived so early, maybe the sect... And the Thousand-Faced Ghost and the others won’t die in vain!”
Qiu Lao consoled him: "This is a shocking situation that is specifically targeted at our Mo sect. In this situation, you and I are small figures and cannot influence the outcome, so you don't have to blame yourself too much!"
The two old men communicated briefly, and then Mo Shenji turned his gaze to Lin Yan aside and said, "I heard that you are looking for 'Thousand Changes of Machinery'?"
Lin Yan nodded. Whether it was to find the mystery of his life experience or the hatred carried by Momen, he needed to become stronger as soon as possible. For this, he needed to have more means to fight against the enemy.
Qiu Lao also explained at the side: "I didn't expect you to survive that interception that year. Thinking that the sect's special skills cannot be lost forever, I took this kid to try his luck by following the clues from back then. I wish I had met you!"
"In that case, you might as well accept this kid as your disciple. This unique skill can be regarded as having a successor."
Mo Shenji waved his hand and said: "Since he is already Junzi's disciple, I can no longer be his master. Moreover, I don't have so much time to train disciples now."
"This time I sneaked into the underground palace because of the news about the "Qi Jing", but I didn't expect that the joy was in vain."
Only then did Lin Yan know the reason for the old man's abnormal behavior before. He probably knew that the "Qi Jing" was fake.
After all, with his intelligence, he had already guessed the truth from the time Lin Yan nonchalantly used the "Qi Jing" to lure Li Chuqi and others into killing each other!
Otherwise, with this kid's character, if he really got the "Qi Jing", why not hide it properly? Where can I easily show it to others?
Then Mo Shenji continued: "However, this guy has good qualifications and a good character. I will pass on the 'Thousand Changes of Mechanism' to you. If you don't understand something, ask me again when we meet."
Lin Yan was about to say thank you when Mo Shenji waved his hand and said: "Since you are a disciple of Juzi, you are naturally qualified to practice this unique skill of Mo Sect. There is no need to thank me."
Then, Mo Shenji took out a black-covered book from his arms and threw it to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan hurriedly took it and took a closer look. There were four characters written on it: "Thousands of Changes in Organizations".
The purpose of this trip was achieved, and Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a little happy, but he was a little strange, did Momen like to use black for all the secrets?
You see, "Mo Jue" is black, and so is the "Thousand Changes of Mechanisms". Even Qiu Lao's broken sword has a black blade. This black color is really favored by the Mo sect!
Ignoring Lin Yan's random thoughts, Mo Shenji looked at Qiu Lao who was in a smoky state and asked, "It's good that you are still alive, but how did you end up like this?"
Qiu Lao coughed, winked at Mo Shenji, and said, "I am a sword spirit, so of course I am like this!"
Mo Shenji asked doubtfully: "Sword Spirit?"
At this time, Qiu Lao secretly transmitted a message to him: "I told this kid that he is the sword spirit of this sword. Now is not the time to tell him my identity."
In fact, the main reason is that this kid is afraid of ghosts. If he had told the truth at that time, he would have been scared away! And it’s been so long, and it’s hard to open your mouth now, so let’s do this for now!
He understood who Mo Shenji was as soon as he heard it, and quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, I mean, why is your sword incomplete?"
Qiu Lao said: "It's not like that back then...forget it, let's not talk about it!"
Mo Shenji didn't want to mention the sad thing for the time being. He looked at Lin Yan aside and said solemnly: "Boy, you have to study this 'Thousand Changes of Mechanisms'. There is also a method of 'refining weapons' in it. Wait for it." You have learned a lot, repairing this knife is not a problem.”
When Lin Yan heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Young man will live up to your expectations!"
Now that things are done here, it's time to leave. It's a pity that the "Qi Jing" was not found, but for Lin Yan, he was very satisfied to get the inheritance of Mo Shenji.
Before leaving, the old man Mo Shenji searched all the valuables on Meng Feiyu and the others, even the golden ring in the stone chamber below.
They were packed full of secrets on martial arts, elixirs, herbs, and so on. Even their broken weapons were taken away by him, euphemistically saying they were used for refining weapons.
When he found Lin Yan and Mr. Qiu looking at him in shock, he also blushed, coughed a few times, and said: "It's a waste to leave it alone anyway, why not let me help them keep it!"
Lin Yan looked at Mo Shenji, then at Qiu Lao, and said in his heart: "This old acquaintance of yours is really...a character!"
Qiu Lao turned his head and stopped looking at him, wondering why he had become so obsessed with money after not seeing him for so long. Time can indeed change a person!
…
Of course, if you go out, you can't go back the same way. Let's not talk about the poisonous moths and numerous mechanisms outside. Even if you can get out, Jin Huan's Canglang Guards are still guarding the entrance to the underground palace.
Once it was discovered that only Lin Yan and the others came out alive, their fate could be imagined.
Fortunately, the robbery hole where Lin Yan first came in was still there, so the two of them climbed outside along the robbery hole.
It is worth mentioning that the robbery hole was dug by Mo Shenji. He used the machine technique to create a digging doll, which quickly dug through the mountain and led to the tomb in the underground palace.
But nothing was found. It happened that people from the three religions came later, so they mixed in and explored the underground palace.
When the two of them left, they sealed the robber's cave and the wellheads dug by the barbarians.
Anyway, due to the previous incident with the machine doll, they probably won't use this well. If you leave it alone, if the Canglang Guard and the people from the three religions find out, then the people of this tribe will suffer!
As for the mechanism doll, it was originally made by Mo Shenji to dig holes. After the work was completed, the wooden doll was almost worn out, so when Lin Yan found it, it looked in tatters.
For Mo Shenji, there is no need to bother repairing a one-time thing, just let it sleep here forever!
After dealing with all this, the two parted ways.
Mo Shenji left and continued to investigate the mastermind who participated in the Momen extermination incident, while accumulating strength for future revenge.
Lin Yan secretly returned to the barbarian tribe, took his little donkey away, and left.
It's not that he wants to leave without saying goodbye, it's just that the trouble caused this time is too great. Once the news leaks out, it will be a disaster for this small tribe!
Therefore, leaving secretly may be the best way!
After Lin Yan and Mo Shenji left, the Canglang Guards who were guarding outside the underground palace still saw no one coming out of the underground palace, so they went to report to the officers outside. Apart from Jin Huan, he is the highest officer here.
If Jin Huan is really trapped, then he has to save him, otherwise it will be his dereliction of duty.
But the mechanisms in the underground palace were so terrifying. After paying the sacrifice of dozens of people, the officer did not dare to continue trying rashly.
He led the remaining Canglang Guards to guard this place, and then quickly sent someone to send a message to the Canglang King.
In addition to Jinhuan and the more than a hundred Canglang Guards, there are also a group of disciples of the three religions. If they all die inside, it will be a big deal!
Within half a day, the soldiers who went to report the news had returned, bringing with them a group of troops. Looking carefully, the leader turned out to be the commander of the Canglang Guard - Tuoba Xiong!
This man is the most trusted general of the Canglang King. He himself is also a master of the acquired world. He usually has great authority in the army. All generals and soldiers are afraid of him.
Why did he come in person!
The officer rushed forward, knelt on one knee, and reported the situation to Tuoba Xiong.
After listening to the report, Tuoba Xiong waved his hand and said: "This golden ring is really useless! It can't be done well, and I have to personally take action, so he dies in it!"
The officer knelt on the ground, lowered his head and listened to Tuoba Xiong's reprimand, not daring to say a single unnecessary word.
Since Tuoba Xiong arrived, the people in the surrounding arena have also calmed down consciously. After all, no one dares to be presumptuous in front of a strong man in the acquired realm.
Not long after, the elders of the three religions also arrived with people one after another. If the "Qi Jing" is really in this underground palace, how could they only send a few disciples?
These elders have long been stationed not far from here, and can respond at any time if the news is true.
From the Xuantian Sect came an old man in white robes named Meng Yan, who was also Meng Feiyu's uncle. He came to escort Meng Feiyu this time, and also hoped that this outstanding junior could accumulate achievements as soon as possible, grow up, and lead their team to prosperity.
The visitor from the Buddhist sect was a thin old monk with a pair of long white eyebrows and a face full of wrinkles. His Buddhist name was Master Linghui. It is said that this person studied Buddhism intensively and was also good at debating difficult matters.
A middle-aged scholar came from the "Sage Academy". He was dressed in a green shirt and had an extraordinary temperament. This person's name is Song Chen, a teacher from the academy, and he is here just in case to meet Li Chuqi.
These three people, like Tuoba Xiong, are all masters of the acquired realm.
Led by the four of them, everyone broke into the underground palace. But the mechanisms in the underground palace were not easy to crack. After suffering a certain amount of casualties, everyone finally reached the final tomb.
When they saw the dead bodies along the way, their hearts sank. Now after seeing the bodies of Jin Huan, Meng Feiyu, Wu Shan and Li Chuqi, their hearts sank even more.
What exactly is going on?
