The bright moon rose, and the light blue moonlight poured freely into the courtyard. In the courtyard, it was pitch black above the mud. Chang An was shocked to find that all the spiky green buds on the ground had disappeared. The surface soil of the entire yard seemed to have been turned over.
But Chang An didn’t wait to think about it carefully.
"Brother Chang An, it seems that you have already suspected me."
The man named Lin looked calm and did not panic at all because he was found.
Chang An's face was cold, and he had some ominous premonitions in his heart. At this time, all the masters in the village were coming, but the other party was not in a hurry to leave.
"Looking at Brother Lin being so calm, I'm afraid I've found what I'm looking for."
"Bah bang bang!"
The man surnamed Lin applauded and praised
"Brother Chang An, you already know the purpose of my coming here."
The man surnamed Lin had some free time and continued:
"Then I'm quite interested in hearing Brother Chang An's opinions."
Chang An heard the words and saw that the man became calmer and calmer, and now he figured out the key.
"You are stalling for time. Could it be that the things have already been sent out?"
Chang An thought of this, turned around and said to Chang Sheng behind him
"Sanliang, go and notify the chief steward and ask him to seal off Ningchuan Prefecture immediately. No one is allowed to leave the city."
They ran out in threes and twos.
A chill flashed through the eyes of the man surnamed Lin, and he smiled.
"Brother Chang An, although I am really surprised that you found this place so quickly, it is too late to make amends now."
he continued
"That day in Mo City, I always regretted not being able to talk to Brother Chang An. Now, we all have time. Brother Chang An should have questions to ask me, and I also have something to ask Brother Chang An."
Chang An resisted the urge to cut him into pieces and said coldly
"You want to know when I started doubting you."
The man named Lin nodded.
Chang An thought to himself, now they really can only pray that what they got has not been sent out of the city.
"Actually, this is not difficult. That day in the inn, you and I lived next door, and you left the inn as soon as you entered the inn. This is not something worth noting, but when I learned from the waiter that you had left the inn, But when I didn't hear any movement next door, I became suspicious of you. I have always been very confident in my hearing, but I didn't even notice when you left. The one who can escape my hearing must at least be a master. There are only a dozen masters above the master level in the entire world, so your identity is almost ready to be revealed."
Chang An looked at the man named Lin and continued.
"Earlier on the same day, I saw Shi Mengxiong appear in Mo City. When I saw him, I felt something was wrong. Later I figured out that there was one missing person in the group that Shi Mengxiong brought. Lin Lin, the second city lord of Beiyan City and one of the ten masters. Therefore, I guess that if you are Lin Lin, then you and Shi Mengxiong appear in Mo City in the dark and in the dark, so there must be something ulterior. purpose.”
The man named Lin smiled and nodded.
"A very bold guess, but also very exciting."
The implication is that the man named Lin has implicitly acknowledged that he is Lin Lin.
"Then, keep talking."
"After I came to Jia's Village, Master Jia told me that disciples had died in succession in the village in recent days. This reminded me of the duel between Shi Mengxiong and Master Jia on July 7th. Therefore, I later guessed that this incident And it probably has something to do with you, the second city lord, but I still couldn't figure out how you killed people. Until the night I came to Jiajiazhuang, I heard the same flute sound as that night in Mo City. At that time I can almost conclude that this is your killing method. You happened to leave the inn when the flute sounded that night in Mo City. Of course, this is just my guess. But I talked to you on the second day in Mo City Before we parted, we saw something else."
Chang An took out two pieces of yellowed paper from his sleeve.
"I picked this up at the scene when a disciple was almost killed on the first night in Jiajiazhuang. Before I said goodbye to you in Mocheng, I saw the same piece of paper on your waist. It was also the same piece of paper I found on those who were there today. I saw the talisman on the soldier's back, and when I saw the shreds of paper falling to the ground, I could almost conclude that you were behind all this."
"But there was actually a very critical issue that I didn't figure out at the time. How did those soldiers sneak into Jiajiazhuang? It's not difficult to dress up in disguise. What's difficult is Jiajiazhuang's waist card. Without a waist card, it's impossible. It is impossible to enter Jiajiazhuang. At this time, the disciples who died in Jiajiazhuang reminded me. Now I understand why the disciples who had the accident were all in different campuses. You are not looking for something. You already knew it. Where is the thing you are looking for? You want to get the waist tags of those disciples. Therefore, I asked Master Jia Zhuang to check if any disciples from Jia Family Village have disappeared recently. As expected, a disciple from Flower and Bird Garden is there. Jiangzhou lost contact."
"But then the words of the owner of Jia Village reminded me that with just these few waist cards, even if we let people in, we can't make any trouble. Even if we rely on these few soldiers to survive in the huge Jia Village, Looking for something is like looking for a needle in a haystack. So the next day, I went to the city. In the city, I heard about an old case, and it was this old case that opened my mind. A few years ago, Jia Jiazhuang busted a gang that manufactured fake waistbands, and this case immediately caught my attention."
"So I returned to the village and asked the chief steward about the original story of the case, but I didn't expect that it would involve another major incident involving the three sects' encirclement and suppression of Xiangxi Prefecture thirty years ago. Now, I figured it all out. The yellow piece of paper I see on your waist is the talisman used by the corpse exorcists to drive the corpses, and the flute I heard is the method used by the corpse exorcists to drive the soldiers. As for you, you should be the corpse exorcist back then. The descendants of the survivors of the pie, or, I guess you are the son of the old craftsman."
"You first intercepted and killed a disciple from the Flower and Bird Garden in Jiangzhou and took his waist badge. Then you sneaked into Jiajiazhuang and intercepted and killed the disciples from other parks to obtain the badges of each park. Then, you mass-produced dozens of fake copies of each park's badges. With his false waistband, dozens of soldiers were ambushed in various major parks in Jiajiazhuang. When the duel between Shi Mengxiong and Jia Yuan began, dozens of soldiers created chaos in various parks, and you took advantage of the chaos to come here and obtain The ultimate purpose of your trip.”
When Chang An said this, he smiled mockingly.
"I asked Master Jia before, what are you looking for? Although Master Jia didn't say it, I understand now that Master Jia put me in this courtyard because he actually wanted me to guard the Jia family for him. The secret of the village, something like that, from the very beginning, Master Jia has given it to me for safekeeping."
Chang An looked at the ground in the yard. The turned soil on the ground was the best proof.
"Pah, pah, pah..."
Lin Lin applauded and said in appreciation
"Wonderful, really wonderful. Although I won this round, I still admire Brother Chang An's thinking. You seem to have seen it all with your own eyes, exactly. I used to kill Jian Zong for you. I scoffed at the rumors, but after seeing you today, I actually believe that you do have the ability to kill Jian Zong."
Chang An asked
"But I still have doubts."
Lin Lin smiled slightly, as if she had known he would ask this question.
"You want to ask me about people from Shijiacun, right?"
Chang An said
"After much deliberation, there is only one explanation. You are related to You Mansion."
Lin Lin laughed
"Walking around in the coffin of Youfu, who doesn't want to live forever? There are a few people who can withstand the temptation of immortality. Even you, aren't you desperately looking for a way to live forever for your sister?"
Chang An sneered. His guess was correct. Youfu was indeed very concerned about him. Although his search for immortality for his sister had spread throughout the world with the appearance of Mo Bei, it was obvious that he, the son of a merchant, had attracted Youfu's concern. It's not a normal thing either.
"There are hundreds of people in Shijia Village and Yangjia Village, but you have only trained a few dozen soldiers. It seems that there are conditions for the refinement of this soldier."
Chang An recalled those soldiers. Many of his acquaintances from the Chijiang River did not appear here. He also thought that Shi Meng had not been turned into a mummy. In addition to Shi Meng, he also saw several other corpses. The person who became a mummy was a strong man with a stronger body in life, and his power was obviously stronger than that of ordinary soldiers.
Therefore, he guessed that the stronger these soldiers were in life, the more powerful they would be when they became soldiers, and those who were too weak would even fail to refine them. Therefore, they only had a few dozen soldiers. .
Lin Lin's eyes showed a cold light.
"Why do you think we only have these dozens of soldiers?"
Chang An looked at him mockingly and said lightly
"There is no point in bluffing. The only grand master in Beiyan City went out with the grand master just to pick up something in Jiajiazhuang. Such a large battle shows that the value of that thing to You Mansion even exceeds that of the grand master. , so, this time you will naturally come out in full force."
Lin Lin's eyes became colder and colder, but in Chang An's eyes, this proved more and more that his guess was correct.
Because of this, Chang An's mind suddenly became clear. He suddenly remembered the letter sent from Jiangnan a few days ago. At this moment, a plan was slowly taking shape in his mind.
A large number of footsteps appeared outside the hospital. Chang An looked at Lin Lin and asked again
"Even if the things have been given away, you can't leave."
Lin Lin spread his hands and smiled.
"Indeed, I didn't expect your appearance."
Chang An is puzzled
"Fighting with your life, you have to pay a lot."
Then he was relieved
"Yes, you think that even if you die, You Mansion will have a way to bring you back to life."
Lin Lin said lightly
"Have you seen those soldiers? The reason why our Corpse Exorcist Sect was able to reach its peak in a short period of time was because of You Man's extraordinary ability."
Chang An was silent. Using the dead as weapons was indeed an unheard-of method if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. At this point, he had to admit that he also began to believe that You Mansion might have really found someone who could rival those three. The means of immortality for an enlightened person.
At this time, in the forest.
This duel continued into the night. Jia Yuan's clothes were in rags, and there was a shocking wound on his left shoulder that was pierced by a sword. The blood had stained his entire shoulder.
A terrifying fingerprint also appeared on Shi Mengxiong's abdomen. The two of them were breathing heavily. Even though the internal energy in their bodies was nearly exhausted, their eyes were still full of fighting spirit.
Jia Yu'an moved. He had no inner strength to mobilize, but his speed was still very fast. This was his most basic physical quality as a descendant of a martial arts family with thousands of years of history.
The right fist hit Shi Mengxiong's face directly. Shi Mengxiong's eyes flashed fiercely and he sneered. Although Jia Yu'an relied on his superb body skills to fight with him until now, his internal strength advantage as a grand master has been clearly revealed at this time.
He held the long sword in his hand, and the looming true energy slowly wrapped around him. Even though he had less than 20% of the internal energy left in his body, this was already a huge advantage when facing Jia Yu'an who had exhausted all his internal energy. .
"boom"
Jia Yu'an hit Shi Mengxiong's body-protecting air wall with his right fist, and the fragile air wall in front of Shi Mengxiong collapsed instantly.
But Shi Mengxiong was not harmed, and he only smiled evilly.
"A grand master is always a grand master. One step is a step away, a world is a world away."
A sword was swung out.
"Stab it!"
Jia Yuan's left arm was cut off at shoulder level!
Blood splashed onto the faces of Jia Yuan and Shi Mengxiong. The tragic scene shocked the surrounding people and screamed loudly.
Everyone in Shi Mengxiong sneered, especially his disciple Yanwu, who laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha, starting from today, the Northern Martial Arts will be led by me, Beiyan City."
Shi Mengxiong also laughed profusely, looking like he had a chance to win.
But Jia Yuan's expression was resolute, but his expression did not change at all. His severed left arm was flying in the air. Jia Yuan took two steps back and firmly caught the left arm with his right hand.
"Boom!"
In the blink of an eye, the situation suddenly changed. Jia Yuan's severed left arm was held in his right hand. Shi Mengxiong's smile stopped on his face. He felt a warmth in his chest. Jia Yuan's left index finger and middle finger were on his chest. In front of him, a faint zhenqi lingered at his fingertips, and the terrifying power quickly spread out like ripples, making all the bones in his body numb.
"Stuck!"
The sound of broken bones came. Under the impact of endless waves of power, the body as strong as the Grand Master could no longer bear it. Shi Mengxiong opened his eyes wide and stared at Jia Yu'an, with a look on his face. unbelievable
"Impossible, how can you still have inner strength!"
Jia Yuan's face was cold, and he held his left arm quietly, letting the blood spray from the broken left shoulder. The fingers of his left hand were in the position of the index finger and middle finger together, and the same weak "Just saved a little."
Shi Mengxiong suddenly realized
"This finger was ready before you came?"
Jia Yu looked at him quietly. Before this battle, he spent several days in seclusion just to save the finger on his left hand.
And as he expected, this finger became the key to victory or defeat.
The undefeated scholar Jia Yu'an also maintained the title of undefeated after this battle.
"Kakakaka!"
The sound of bones breaking continuously was so clear and sweet to Jia Yuan's ears. Shi Mengxiong's hands hung down weakly, his pupils gradually dilated, and he stopped breathing.
Without the protective energy wall, he was hit hard and fell into pieces. Even if he was a great master, he would not be able to survive.
Jia Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, the battle was finally over.
He looked at the wound on his left shoulder that spurted blood, and felt dizzy. Before he fell, he saw people from all walks of life flying towards him, and vaguely heard Shi Mengxiong's men rushing towards him with murderous intent.
After he fainted, another big scuffle broke out in the forest.
Not long after, Jia Huan rushed towards the place with the men and horses of Jiajiazhuang roaring.
