Chapter 148 Why not dead

The emperor was assassinated, the capital was shaken, a bloody battle occurred, and the immortal sect was furious.

For a time, the entire Anwu City was filled with suspicions, and there was a strong sense that a storm was about to come.

However, this matter needs to be divided into two parts. Whether the leader of the country Guo Xun was assassinated? Yes, he was assassinated, but whether it was successful or not, it was not successful.

It was probably because he was cautious and relied on three protective magic weapons to block the joint attacks of the two assassins. He was slightly injured and managed to escape with his life.

It was just rumored that the king was in a terrible state at that time. He was suddenly attacked and killed, and in his haste to escape, his crown fell off, his hair was all messy, and even his dragon robe had several holes cut out.<

/p>

It was also thanks to the timely reaction of the imperial ministers of Songfeng Hall that they took action together and killed the two men on the spot, which solved Guo Xun's crisis. Otherwise, if it were one o'clock in the evening, the king of a country who had exhausted this magic weapon would really be in danger.

He is going to die because of the Anwuxian Association that he leads and presides over. It is impossible to say that it is also a big joke.

Because of this, Emperor Dufeng, whose cultivation was only at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining, once in a while, had a very bad temper with the two golden elixir monks from Songfeng Hall, Wei Ziqiu and Feng Yin.

According to common sense, how could such a high-ranking Jindan master allow Qi Refiner to be so presumptuous in front of him, even with the title of emperor? But in this situation, he could only pinch his nose and endure it.

.

After all, even among immortals, you still have to be reasonable.

The two masters of Songfeng Hall are worshiped by the whole country and have extraordinary status. They can't just ignore people when something happens, and almost let their king die on the spot, right?

Even if this matter goes to hell, the one who is at fault is Songfengtang. Even if the person who saves people is also his disciple, he cannot avoid being blamed for dereliction of duty.

And just by losing your temper, does it count as the end? Of course not.

On the afternoon of the assassination, Guo Xun, the leader of the country, issued an edict, admonishing his ministers and workers, and also ordered the opening of the "National Defense Formation" to capture the spies and criminals who had committed the crime. The entire city could only be entered and exited.

Monks are not exempt either.

In addition to the above two, five days later, peace talks between the two countries will be held with the envoys from Beiyan in the Xuanzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace. The leader of the country, Guo Xun, will also be here in person.

Of these three things, the last two are of course the ones that really mean something.

The so-called "National Defense Formation" is actually the "Anwu Formation" to put it bluntly. It is a defensive formation that was led by successive masters of Songfeng Hall and lasted for more than a hundred years, with additions and additions. Its power can withstand

Golden elixir monks are actually the last barrier for the entire Dufeng Kingdom.

However, since its completion, it has rarely been opened except for major festivals.

Like today, it is the first time since the founding of the country that a large-scale formation was launched for the assassination of an emperor.

As for this Immortal Sect monk, who is not accustomed to having a laid-back temperament, and he is certainly most dissatisfied with the practice of leaving the formation behind and only entering but not exiting.

However, due to the pressure from the leaders of various factions, especially the eight sects, it didn't cause much trouble, so they silently accepted this fact.

The reason why the eight sects were willing to admit the matter was, in the final analysis, because several Jindan masters acted dishonorably in the matter of the assassination.

In fact, everyone present in the Neiyuan knew clearly at that time that if they tried their best to kill Xiao Qingyan and killed Xiao Qingyan immediately, there would be no such big trouble later.

It's just that no one took action at that time, no matter what the reason was. They just let the other party come and remember the conspiracy and get things done. It was just that the final move was missed and the full effort was not done.

Therefore, due to the clear edict issued by Guo Xun, the leader of the country, each sect should take responsibility for its own losses and just wait for him to frustrate for ten days and a half, and he has almost calmed down, so let it go.

As for the peace talks, I am afraid that Emperor Dufeng was stimulated by the assassination and wanted to make peace with the Beiyan Kingdom as soon as possible before launching the offensive against the Wei Kingdom.

In this regard, several sects that actually participated in the Beiyan War have already discussed it before, so they naturally have no objections. Since peace talks are required, there is not much difference in talking sooner or later.

However, there are still disputes among various sects about whether to immediately turn around and attack the guards.

This matter involves the murderous murder case.

It is said that the eight sects sent out only young elites. The sect hopes that they will be slaughtered to death, with only three or four people left alive. How can people endure this, and how can they endure it.

What's more, so many disciples died in it, and the implications were huge. If you want to hide it, you can't hide it no matter what, and there is no need to hide it.

Since people are dissatisfied with the peace talks between the two countries and have turned over the table and come to kill them, what else are they hiding?

Therefore, as soon as the news came out that this murder was the work of Wei Guo, all factions, whether they were victims of the case or not, were all excited and wanted to start a war with them immediately.

But ordinary monks can vent their anger at will, but experts from all sides, and even the heads of sects, cannot just make a decision directly and start a national war.

In short, when these complicated and complicated news were brought to Lin Xiao by Lou Xuan, it was already two days after the battle in the inner garden.

In the past two days, except for recovering from internal injuries, Lin Xiao lived in the same house almost the whole time and never left.

The reason for this is because what Lou Xuan said before was not a joke, and he actually brought Lin Xiao back to the Lutang Station for a temporary rest.

Lin Xiao was surprised when he saw this secluded guest room located in the backyard of an inn, and stayed in it without asking anything else.

After all, it is about the secrets of the Law Hall. As an "outsider", it is better to speak less and pay more attention to other people's taboos. Therefore, don't talk about snooping around, but don't even leave the door. I will only wait until I recover from my injuries.
p>

During this period, Tong Mian, the leader of the Law Hall, came once in person. After asking a few questions about his condition, he also mentioned in a rather vague way that Lin Xiao had better conceal his name regarding the sneaking into Qiongtai Immortal Garden.

There is no need to worry too much about Ryutang cuisine.

Of course, Lin Xiao himself is happy to see the results of this treatment method. It would be best if he could be removed without leaving any trace. Of course, this is probably the result of Shangguan Xiao's instruction, otherwise Tong Mian would not know about it, let alone take over it personally.

This matter.

In addition, the one I saw the most in the past two days was Lou Xuan. Just like now, he was sitting on a chair, holding a teapot in one hand, listening to Lin Xiao singing cicadas outside the window, and giving "One Word" to the person across the table.

I drank a cup of tea.

"Brother Lou, how many times have you come here today?" Lin Xiao casually put down the teapot, leaned back comfortably on the back of the chair, and looked at the person opposite.

"Third trip? Almost..." Lou Xuan answered casually, as if he just chose a nice number to say.

Lin Xiao tilted his head and snorted softly. "Are you concerned about my injury, or are you secretly monitoring me? Why do I feel that you are running a little too 'diligently'..."

Lou Xuan smiled silently, took a sip of tea soup and said something lightly.

"How about I change your room and try what surveillance is?" He put down the tea cup and sighed for no reason. "It's too chaotic outside. Find a place to hide."

"Hide, hide from people or hide from things?" Lin Xiao followed.

Lou Xuan just nodded his head and said extremely calmly: "Ni Jing, he is dead."

"Dead?!" Lin Xiao was shocked when he heard this and sat up straight. "How is this possible!"

Lou Xuan replied: "Why did I lie to you about this? I died in the secret prison of Lutang last night."

Lin Xiao looked at the chief of the crime department and said with doubts on his face. "You are telling me that an important criminal who has been sealed with Qihai Zhenyuan, is seriously injured, and is being held in a secret prison is just under the eyes of the law hall."

Underneath, dead?!"

Lou Xuan nodded silently.

"Ha..." Lin Xiao sneered, "Why didn't you say that he committed suicide out of fear of crime? Just in time for a clean break..."

Unexpectedly, Lou Xuan nodded again, and then asked: "Yes, how do you know that Ni Jing committed suicide?"

"Ah?" Now it was Lin Xiao's turn to be completely stunned.

Lou Xuan narrowed his eyes and pointed at his neck. "A belt, two hands fighting, strangled myself."

After saying this, there was a slight silence in the room. After a while, the two of them laughed at the same time. Lin Xiao laughed so hard that he fell back and forth with tears in the corners of his eyes. The eyes of Lou Xuan opposite him completely disappeared from his face.

After the two of them laughed enough, Lin Xiaocai shook his head and said: "How about you change the place for me..."

Lou Xuan opened his mouth forcefully, as if he had laughed a lot, and his face was a little sore.

"What? Are you scared to death?"

Lin Xiao directly denied it: "I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of a very ridiculous death."

"It is indeed ridiculous." Lou Xuan repeated and continued: "Don't worry, if the people who know you are hiding here really want to kill you, there are not many people in the Dufeng Immortal Sect who can stop you."<

/p>

Lin Xiao's expression froze. "I'm so grateful to you..."

"That's fine, Brother Lin is so polite!" Lou Xuan replied very naturally, "By the way, there is one more thing to reassure you. Just now, Wang Chong has woken up."

"Really?" Lin Xiao was overjoyed when he heard this, "This is really the best thing, I finally heard something good."

Since escaping from Xianyuan, Lin Xiao has been thinking about two people. One is Yi Shang, because he couldn't protect himself at that time, and how could he have the spare time to take care of his safety?

However, this Senior Brother Yi was really very skillful in saving his life. He found a crack in the cliff that was extremely difficult to find and hid for a whole day and night. Not to mention that the disciples of Yuzhu Academy did not find him, but they were looking for him later.

The members of the Hanxi Mountain Sect spent a lot of effort to find this extremely hidden hiding place.

After that, Yi Shang was heavily protected. After handing over all the evidence in his hands, he was able to escape with his life.

As for Wang Chong and Pei Qingsong, the situation is not so smooth.

Pei Qingsong suffered two palm blows and was seriously injured. Not to mention his entire right arm was disabled, and his Dantian Qi sea was almost completely disintegrated. No matter how peacefully he healed, it is estimated that it would be extremely difficult to recover as before.

The only good thing is that I managed to save my life and did not end up in the Immortal Garden.

The situation at Wang Chong's side was not much better. One man forced his sword formation to "control the mountains and rivers". As a result, the sea of ​​​​qi was exhausted, his spiritual sense was severely damaged, and he fainted directly.

In Lou Xuan's words at the time, it all depends on whether he can wake up in the next two days. If he can, just give it up and just take care of it slowly. If he can't, I'm afraid he will never wake up again in the future.

Therefore, when Lin Xiao heard that Wang Chong had woken up, how could he not be so happy and called him a lucky star?
