The continuous autumn rain enveloped the bustling Linzi, washing the largest city in the world and washing the bluestone road outside Jimen clean.
This bluestone road extends for more than five miles, leading to a sea of spiritual springs. It is called a sea rather than a sea. It is a scenic spot where hundreds of spiritual veins gather. In this sea of spiritual springs, there are countless pavilions and palaces scattered at random, solemn and exquisite, like a fairy palace.
Behind the Immortal Palace is Xiandu Mountain, which is hidden in the mist all year round.
This palace is Jixia Academy.
Today, after the school class ended, the monks and nobles from all over the world who came to listen to the lecture dispersed with unfulfilled interest. Shi Jianwu, who was attending the lecture, was displeased. He left the school and went straight to Shangyuantang. He said to his friend Uncle Lian: "Lu Tong I was lecturing today and I was so arrogant that I got dizzy!"
Uncle Lian was surprised: "What happened to him?"
Shi Jianwu said angrily: "Today's school is an external class, and there are many outsiders present, but he does not distinguish between inside and outside the school. He talks deeper and deeper, and goes further and further. He is like a river and a man!"
Uncle Lian asked: "What did he say?"
Shi Jianwu said: "He told everything about Gushe Mountain! He said that there are immortals in Gushe Mountain, whose skin is like ice and snow, as graceful as a virgin, who rides on the clouds, controls flying dragons, and travels all over the world! I will learn these things The palace has not yet confirmed it, so how can he dare to talk nonsense?"
Uncle Lian asked a few more details and advised Shi Jianwu: "It doesn't matter, how do outsiders know this? Most of them think he is arrogant, and it is difficult for anyone to believe it. It should be noted that blind people cannot understand the beauty of the article, and deaf people cannot understand the beauty of the article. People cannot hear the sound of bells and drums. Those outsiders are blind and deaf people. Their knowledge is limited. Even if it is told to them, how many believers will there be? Most of them will listen to it as a book from heaven."
Shi Jianwu said: "You should go and persuade him when you have time. Among all the practices, you are the only one who might be able to listen."
Uncle Lian smiled and said: "You always say that he is crazy, but in fact he always has fantastic ideas, and his future achievements will be limitless..."
While he was talking, Uncle Lian's disciple came in and said, "Teacher, Ziyu has sent someone to send a message, asking the teacher to go to the lamp tower immediately."
The smile on Uncle Lian's face disappeared immediately: "Who is in trouble?"
The disciple said: "I didn't know...Shi Fengxing is here too. I think Ziyu Fengxing has also sent someone to invite you. He said that all the great Fengxing at home are going."
There are eighteen monks in the academy, and those who take turns presiding over the general affairs are called the great monks. There are four people in total, Shi Jianwu and Lian Shu are among them. This season it's Yu Fengzhi's turn to host. Since everyone at home is said to be going, it means something is really going on.
At that moment, Shi Jianwu and Uncle Lian immediately left Shangyuan Hall and rushed to the lantern tower. .
The lamp building is a three-story building. On the bottom floor, more than a hundred oil lamps are lit, illuminating the building owner. These oil lamps are burning normally. No matter what the movement is, even if they are forced to use Taoism, they cannot be extinguished. Even the flames of the lamps are not affected by half.
Because what is lit is not an ordinary flame, but a life soul - these lamps are also called life soul lamps. Each life soul lamp is connected to a person's spiritual consciousness. The ones displayed on the bottom floor are all life soul lamps walking in the academy.
The lighting of the life soul lamp will not interfere with the master who has left the imprint of his spiritual consciousness at all. Its only purpose is to understand the owner's condition. There is only one situation in which the life soul lamp will be extinguished, and that is when his master dies. .
Yu Fengxing looked blank and pointed to the lamp stand to Shi Jianwu and Uncle Lian. Shi Jianwu and Uncle Lian had already seen it without him pointing it out.
The deceased was walking in Yingdu and sinking in Zhuliang.

"Why is it him?" Shi Jianwu was very surprised. Shen Zhuliang is a senior god-refining master, and the disciples Si Xiangwei are also very famous in the academy. What's more, he has been in a place like Yingdu of Chu State all year round, which has great security issues. protection.
In the school tour, the tasks are also uneven. For example, the tour in Linzi is the safest, with almost nothing happening. After that, there are tours in Xintian of Jin, Yingdu of Chu, Yongcheng of Qin, and Gusu of Wu. , although there are many things, it is not dangerous. After all, this is the capital of several powerful countries. It has strong strength and high-level students. It has blocked countless potential threats to the local school, and there are almost no notorious enemies of the school. Dare to appear in these places.
For example, Shen Zhuliang, in the past twenty years, has only caught small fish and shrimps, and he has only caught two in total. The question is, how did he die while walking in such a safe city of Yingdu?
"This matter is serious and Yu dare not act arbitrarily. Ji Xian has gone to Yan State and is not in the academy. Jian Wu and Uncle Lian, I will discuss it later." Yu Fenxing said.
Shi Jianwu sighed: "It's been such an eventful autumn. Before the autumn was over, the academy lost two people in a row. The last time was six years ago, right?"
This topic was difficult to answer. He was talking about Shi Zhongzhong, who was walking in Yangzhou, and the person in charge was Yu Fengxing in front of him. However, the academy claimed that Shi Zizhong died in seclusion three years ago.
Uncle Lian broke the ice: "Luo Lingfu is a good investigator, but he has already rushed to Yongguo to preside over Song Yan's case. Let's see who else is suitable?"
Shi Jianwu said: "How about inviting Lu Tong to go?"
Yu Fengxing shook his head and said, "Lu Tong is a madman. He can lecture and preach, but he is not suitable for investigating cases."
Uncle Lian also objected: "No, he has never investigated a case. It is better to choose one between Chenzi and Yu Xi, who is qualified for the job."
Shi Jianwu added: "Actually, Jiang Ying is also good."
Yu Fengxing remained silent, and Uncle Lian smoothed things over: "I heard that Jiang Ying is going to be in retreat, so it's not appropriate to disturb him at this time."
Yu Fengxing said: "Then it's Yu Xi."
Each of the four major disciples is on duty for one season. Yu Bongxing makes a decision, which is the final decision and cannot be changed. The matter is settled.
Yu Xi was ordered to investigate the case and immediately rushed to Yingdu. The first step was to find out where Shen Zhuliang died. After he arrived at Yingdu Academy, he first read the correspondence, and then asked the remaining servants in the academy one by one. Only then did he find out that not only Shen Zhuliang, but also the four guards under his sect had not returned, and most of them were following Shen Zhuliang. Dao Xiaoshen died.
This basically means that the school in Yingdu was wiped out. Yu Xi was greatly shocked and quickly reported the news to Linzi. At the same time, he mobilized Zheng Jianzi and Chen Changzi to be promoted to Yingdu to obey orders.
While checking the bamboo slips, he discovered that the last case Shen Zhuliang was handling was a lunatic named Shen Yu, so he sent a message to summon young Fu Jingrui to the school for questioning.
Jingrui was the young master of the Chu Kingdom and one of the top nobles in the world. After receiving the order from Yu Xi in the academy, he had no choice but to come to visit him.
"What happened to Shen Yu?" Yu Xi asked him.
Jingrui said angrily: "I returned to my hometown three months ago to check out my old house. I met this man. His appearance looked like that of my good friend...no, an old friend. He looked like his old friend Shen Sutu, so he mistakenly thought he was his son and took him here." He was raised and treated by Yingdu. Shen Xingxing asked me about this matter, and I told him clearly. Who knew that Shen Sutu would be a repeat offender in the academy? I... really regret it..."
Yu Xi asked: "Where is Shen Yu?"
Jing Rui said: "Yue ago, he secretly left Jingyi... I really don't know his whereabouts!"
