The Holy Gate is what most people call the Evil Gate. The people in the Holy Sect are the evil monks. This kind of name is very simple, no one will put an unpleasant label on their head. In the eyes of evil monks, they never feel that they are "evil". On the contrary, they feel that they are the right way and the light.
And the other party's words "You are not a Holy Sect monk! What on earth are you!?" can actually explain a lot of things.
Shen Hao ignored the other party, because at this time he had regained his mobility, and the black mist that had previously enveloped him had completely dissipated and returned to the mask.
In other words, the winner has actually been decided by this time. It's like a fish being dragged onto the shore. No matter how fierce it is, there is no possibility of fighting back. At least that's the case with this mask.
Up and down. From everything being under the control of Shen Hao to everything being under the control of the mask, in the end Shen Hao survived a desperate situation, it could be said to be luck or a trump card. As a result, Shen Hao won.
After more than ten breaths, the mask returned to its ordinary appearance, no longer as strange and powerful as before.
Xue Gui's eyes could be seen closed through the holes in the mask, but his eyelids were moving and seemed to open soon.
So Shen Hao stretched out his hand and quickly took off the mask.
The weight of the mask was unimaginable, like the weight of a piece of paper but extremely hard. The texture and weight in the hand were extremely conflicting, which was inexplicable. Coupled with the soul in the mask before, Shen Although Hao doesn't know how to refine weapons, he is sure that this mask is not simple.
His eyes returned to Xue Gui, who had collapsed on the ground and was slowly regaining consciousness.
Shen Hao looked at it intently for a few breaths, and a smile appeared on his face. This time he was right again. Underneath the mask is indeed a face that is more or less similar to Yang Wenguang's portrait. Are there any "ugly birthmarks"? Wearing a mask is not to hide one's appearance, but to hide one's appearance.
The formation in the secret room was removed by Shen Hao with a wave of his hand. After the mysterious soul disappeared just now, the control of the formation here returned to his hands.
"Sir!" Dozens of masters from the Jingxi Town Fushi Yamen were already waiting outside, including the three guards sent by the Commander Yamen who had been following Shen Hao. At this time, seeing the secret room door open, they knew there was a result, and they all obeyed the order.
Shen Hao stood up, pointed at Xue Gui, who was not yet fully awake, and said to the outside: "Lock him up and send him to the dungeon, with the highest level of guards. Please note that you should beware of masters from the Xuanhai Realm who rob the prison."
The second half of the sentence shocked everyone outside. Even those who had been relatively casual before now had to be on guard. Beware of masters from the Xuanhai Realm coming to rob the prison? This... I'm afraid there isn't another big secret.
However, the Xuanqing Guards were most taboo about talking too much. No one dared to ask or even guess. They probably immediately stripped Xue Gui clean, leaving no underwear on him, and then used it twice like a pig. The board was locked and immediately sent into the deepest part of the Jingxi Town Fushi Yamen dungeon. At the same time, all the magic circles in the dungeon were opened at the highest alert level.
"Look alike?" Jiang Cheng saw Shen Hao for the first time in the public house, who hurried over to report to him, and his tone was a little excited. After all, this matter was really big, and he was used to seeing trouble. Sometimes it is inevitable to be a little excited. Because if the credit for this thing is real, then... at least it will last until the new emperor and will not fade away. This must be a great thing for him, Jiang Cheng, that he never dreamed of.
"Sir, it looks very much like it. Moreover, I just asked someone to record Xue Gui's bloodline aura after taking off his mask, and they have already asked people from the royal ancestral hall to verify it. If the verification is successful, then the subordinate's previous guesses will basically be confirmed. .”
"Is there any change in the blood aura before and after the mask is removed?"
"Yes, there have been changes, and big changes. This mask used to conceal and confuse the blood aura." Shen Hao said as he placed the captured mask on Jiang Cheng's table.
This mask is definitely not simple, it may even be an amazing magic weapon. But no matter how much Shen Hao wanted to embezzle it, he knew it was impossible. This matter must be heard by Datian. As a very important piece of evidence, the mask cannot be kept in his pocket. Since you can't keep it, you might as well take the initiative to hand it over.
Jiang Cheng's experience was naturally higher than that of Shen Hao, but he also knew very little about Qi refining. He marveled at the mask that was as light as paper but as textured as metal. I understand that this is a treasure, but I can't tell what its origin is, or even its grade.
"This thing is weird. Did you notice anything at the time?"
Jiang Cheng asked casually, but Shen Hao couldn't answer casually. This was even a question that he had been pondering in his mind before. Because there are a series of questions about the mask, the mysterious soul attached to the mask, and even how he finally won. It would not be a good thing for him to let any news leak out. Therefore, Shen Hao was not prepared to reveal this matter to the outside world.
Fortunately, no one present except him knew it. Even Xue Gui was probably unconscious at the time.
"Sir, my subordinates didn't find anything special. Everything went well. I just felt that the texture of this mask was strange and its effect was rare. It served as evidence for Xue Gui's concealment of his identity, so I paid more attention to it."
In short: I don’t know what’s so strange about the thing, I just took a second look at it out of necessity for investigation.
This explanation is reasonable. Anyway, I have grasped it, and the matter is 80% consistent with Shen Hao's previous guess. In the end, as long as the Royal Ancestral Hall can respond with a definite and positive news, it will be a sure thing. On the contrary, no matter how rare this mask is, it is really just a piece of physical evidence for the case. So Jiang Cheng didn't delve into it further.
"I'll go see the commander later. I think he will ask you for an interview, so you don't want to go back today. Just stay in the yamen." Jiang Cheng took the mask and then picked up the table. The time is tight for the documents to be submitted, and no formal files have been released yet, but the matter cannot be delayed, and Pang Ban should be informed as soon as possible.
"Sir, you should be more careful along the way." Shen Hao responded and also reminded him. When Xue Gui was captured, it was inevitable that Yang Wenguang of Wuzhuang would not have any special means to know about it. It would be very troublesome if he jumped over the wall in a hurry or retaliated wantonly.
"Haha, don't worry, I will take half of my personal guards away, and the remaining half are now guarding the dungeon."
This was because Shen Hao was overthinking it. Jiang Cheng knew very well the weight of this matter and the benefits that were about to be obtained, so he would not take it lightly at dawn.
Shen Hao sent Jiang Cheng out, then turned around and went to the prison. It's not that I'm anxious to interrogate Xue Gui, nor that I want to do my best, but I simply feel that the safest side of the Jingxi Town Fushi Yamen is the prison.
Not to mention Yang Wenguang, just the mysterious man who called himself "Old Man" in the previous mask. Shen Hao lost that part of his soul but obviously felt "incomplete". This shows that not all of the other party's soul is in the mask. It means that there is a tyrannical evil monk who now has a deadly feud with him.
