These disciples were sent out this time to find opportunities and accumulate achievements, but they never expected that they would all be lost here.
If this goes back to the gate, they elders will inevitably be held accountable.
Meng Yan was holding Meng Feiyu's body and burst into tears. It was not easy for such an outstanding junior to die like this. No one could bear this!
Tuoba Xiong looked at the dead bodies along the way. Among them, the Canglang Guards had the most dead bodies. At this moment, he wanted to skin Jin Huan alive!
If Jin Huan hadn't already died, it would have been his turn to send this trash to the West!
As the saying goes: "One general is incompetent and a thousand troops will be exhausted." In Tuoba Xiong's view, Jin Huan was obviously a useless general. He died just like a useless general, and he actually dragged down so many Canglang Guards to death. , it’s not enough to whip him to death a hundred times!
Just when everyone was immersed in emotions of sadness or anger, Meng Yan suddenly discovered something was wrong with Meng Feiyu's injuries.
After tearing open his clothes, Meng Yan found two obvious palm prints on his back, indicating that he had been attacked from behind.
Meng Feiyu's fatal injuries came from a penetrating wound to the chest and a stab wound to the neck.
Being able to be attacked from behind meant that he was not prepared for the person who attacked him. The penetrating injury to the chest came from a pestle-shaped weapon. This kind of weapon is rare, and the only one that can be seen is the Vajra pestle of the Buddhist sect.
Since the wound on the chest probably came from a strong Buddhist man, it is easy to figure out where the wound on the neck came from. It was probably someone from the Confucian "Sage Academy".
Although all Confucian disciples wore swords, he did know that the disciple sent by the "Sage Academy" this time was named Li Chuqi. He was a swordsman, which was suitable for the wounds caused by this sharp weapon.
"Old bald donkey, slanderous scholar! It turns out that it was the disciples of your two families who assassinated Fei Yu!" Meng Yan thought of this and pointed at Master Linghui and Song Chen angrily and said.
The two of them were also immersed in the sorrow of the death of their disciples and students. A basin of dirty water suddenly fell from the sky, and they refused to acknowledge it no matter what.
"Meng Yan, don't be slanderous!" Song Chen, a middle-aged scribe, retorted.
Now that Li Chuqi is dead, he will not allow anyone to tarnish his reputation.
Master Linghui also clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha! Monks pay attention to compassion, and it is impossible to do such a thing if you are virtuous!"
To say that this old monk is also a person, he is quite capable of telling lies with open eyes.
Even though Wushan looked kind-hearted, he was actually vicious and cruel, looking like a King Kong with angry eyes. I don't know how he had so much confidence in Wushan.
"You are still quibbling. If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself!" Meng Yan was also anxious. The death of Meng Feiyu, an outstanding junior, had already made him extremely sad. Now, these two guys are still saying that he framed him. It is really unreasonable!
Song Chen and Master Linghui stepped forward to check, and their expressions couldn't help but change. Judging from Meng Feiyu's wounds, it was possible that what the old man Meng Yan said was true.
However, when things come to pass, they will not be able to admit it even if they are killed.
Once it is confirmed that Li Chuqi and Wu Shan teamed up to kill Meng Feiyu, it will not only stain their own reputations, but also bring great trouble to the Buddha Sect and the "Sage Academy".
After all, the Xuantian Sect is now the leading presence in the Taoist sect, firmly ranking above the Buddhist and Confucian schools.
Song Chen and Master Linghui refused to give up, and Meng Yan refused to give up, so the three of them were arguing here, and they couldn't tell right from wrong for a while.
Tuoba Xiong was really annoyed listening to their noise. People like him who were born as professional soldiers believe in strength.
You guys, no matter how noisy you are, just fight if there is any problem. Whoever has the bigger fist is the one who is right.
However, the strength of these three guys was comparable to his, and the sect power behind them was extremely powerful, so it was difficult for him to force the three of them to stop arguing.
Even though he looked quite rough, he was actually rough and thin, and he quickly discovered something suspicious.
Even if Meng Feiyu was really killed by Wu Shan and Li Chuqi in a sneak attack, how did they die?
Moreover, the golden ring under the tomb was killed by a single blow. Such injuries must have been caused by at least an acquired master!
He also checked and found that the strength of the "blood corpse" definitely did not reach the acquired realm, and he died in the tomb below. The deaths of Wu Shan and Li Chuqi above had little to do with him.
So, there were other people in this tomb, and they were masters!
Thinking of this, he quickly asked his men to investigate. Sure enough, in addition to the Canglang Guards and the disciples of the three religions, there were still some Jianghu people who entered the underground palace with them.
Nowadays, most people have been confirmed dead, except for the eight gates, which cannot be confirmed one by one.
Therefore, except for the big man from the Ancient Sword Sect who was confirmed to be dead, the hook-nosed old man from the Flying Eagle Sect, and the earthpuck from the Earth-Escape Sect, all the other Jianghu people who came in were painted by Tuoba Xiong and offered rewards for their capture!
As for the identity information of these people, it is even simpler. Just throw out some money and you can learn it from the people watching from the outside.
As for Song Chen and Master Linghui, they also agreed with Tuoba Xiong's speculation that there must have been other masters at that time, and it was very likely that these people on their side died at the hands of the other side!
Meng Yan, on the other hand, bit Meng Feiyu to death at the hands of Wu Shan and Li Chuqi, but there was nothing he could do at this moment, so he could only put down his harsh words and wait until the Ming sect was informed.
Several groups of people took these corpses back respectively, and the gold, silver and jewelry in the tomb were also looted by Tuoba Xiong, euphemistically claiming to be used as military expenses.
The purpose of Meng Yan and others' trip was not for these gold and silver, and "a strong dragon will not overwhelm a local snake". It would be unwise to fall out with Tuoba Xiong for some gold and silver, so they left him alone. .
Not long after, the underground palace was emptied of valuables, not even the bottles and jars were left, like locusts passing through.
However, there is no clue about the secret books of martial arts and martial arts, as well as the most precious "Qi Jing".
After they were done, several groups of people dispersed. Except for Tuoba Xiong who also received a pile of gold and silver jewelry, the other three sects looked gloomy and miserable.
The people around outside couldn't help but be a little greedy as they watched the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry being shipped out, but no one dared to snatch them.
joke! Who is Tuoba Xiong? A master in the acquired realm!
Moreover, he also brought hundreds of Canglang Guards with him. Even these people tied together were not enough for him to kill.
Although money is good, life is more important!
After Tuoba Xiong and the members of the three religions left, those Jianghu people had the courage to rush into the underground palace. As expected, they triggered the underground palace mechanism and suffered heavy casualties.
When they finally passed through the many mechanisms and entered the interior of the underground palace, they saw empty tombs, and not even a copper coin could be found.
At this time, everyone began to curse Tuoba Xiong angrily, and also greeted all his direct female relatives.
Tuoba Xiong obviously couldn't hear this. After he returned, he reported the incident to the Canglang King and began to offer a reward for the Jianghu people who entered the underground palace with Jin Huan and others that day.
After Meng Yan and others returned to the sect, they did the same thing. It's just that Meng Yan bit Meng Feiyu to death and died in a sneak attack by disciples of the Buddhist and Confucian families, and demanded an explanation from the two families.
However, the two families naturally refused to recognize each other to the death. As a result, the stalemate between the three religions lasted for a long time, and cracks appeared between them.
Of course, this is all a later story. Zhang Deshou is just a false identity used by Mo Shenji, and the reward means little to him.
The reward you are offering is just Zhang Deshou, what does it have to do with me, Mo Shenji?
You see, he is so confident!
As for Lin Yan, who would care about him, a little kid in the body-forging realm? So many masters died in the underground palace, and they only thought that he died when he was breaking through the level. With his strength, it is normal for his body to be gone!
So Lin Yan has no trouble for the time being.
After parting ways with Mo Shenji, Lin Yan continued on the road on his little donkey. Now that he has successfully obtained the secret of "Thousand Changes of Organs", half of the purpose of his journey has been achieved. The next step is to go to "Sage Academy".
"Sage Academy" recruits talents from all over the world. As long as you have special talents that are different from ordinary people, you may become a student of the academy after being selected.
Now that Li Chuqi, who had met Lin Yan, was dead, he didn't have to worry about being exposed.
Besides, the "Sage Academy" has many disciples, and it doesn't pay too much attention to the background of the students. No matter you are a noble or a poor scholar, the academy will treat you equally, which also provides convenient conditions for Lin Yan to infiltrate.
As you walk from Nanman to Chang'an, the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, you will of course become more and more prosperous as you go. No wonder the world says that the Tang Dynasty is rich. What you see along the way is indeed worthy of its reputation.
Although Lin Yan did not go deep into the hinterland of the Southern Barbarians, he took the people on both sides of the border as an example. That barbarian tribe even had problems eating, and the town where Song Yi was located was like a paradise compared to them. This shows the national strength of the two countries.
This is why the southern barbarians raided the borders of the Tang Kingdom at every turn. It was indeed their wealth that captivated the eyes. It dazzles in front of their eyes every day, and they can't help but be jealous!
On the way to Chang'an, since there was nothing urgent, the journey was much slower.
There have been a lot of things going on recently. Now that he finally has time, Lin Yan can calm down and practice the "Mo Jue" and "Dead Wood Jue".
Due to constant life and death battles, Lin Yan's actual combat experience has increased a lot, and at the same time, he can absorb more vitality of heaven and earth.
As more and more heaven and earth energy surged into his body, the black "soil" inside his body grew larger and larger, from a small piece before to the size of a human head today.
And that vitality sapling has grown to the height of a person. If this momentum continues, I believe it will not be long before it reaches the limit of "breaking out of the ground", and maybe one day it will break through to the second level!
During this period, Lin Yan also studied the "Thousand Changes of Mechanisms" that Mo Shenji passed on to him. Since he had never been exposed to this knowledge before, Mr. Qiu could not give him effective guidance, so he could only Just figure it out for yourself.
But fortunately, he has some talent in this area. After continuous study and study along the way, he has finally got started, which is pretty good!
And after this period of precipitation, he digested all the gains from the previous battles and finally reached the perfection of the body training state!
