According to the direction mentioned by the man who was fighting over, Nie Yunfei found the big bald pine tree in the grassland at the south end of Fengyuan Village.
After pushing aside the grass around the pine tree, we soon saw a dark hole that could accommodate one person. Judging from the new soil dug up around it, this hole must have been dug not long ago.
Nie Yunfei stared at the entrance of the cave and sneered. The guy who fought in the secret passage was also a talent. Not only was there no grass growing here, but there were no raised mounds of earth on the ground. He could have discovered that there were tombs underneath.
Nie Yunfei took off his long sword and put it next to the hole. He took out a fire seal from his arms and jumped into the black hole.
The bottom of the cave is not very deep, and there is a tomb passage at the bottom.
The tomb passage is not very long, and the opened tomb door in front can be seen at a glance.
The cat bent down and walked into the small tomb, only to find that there was nothing else except a rotting coffin and a withered skeleton.
Just like what the man said, in this tomb, only the jade belt is really worth anything.
Just when Nie Yunfei was disappointed, he suddenly felt that his toes touched a raised hard object. He lowered his head and took a closer look. It turned out to be a bluestone slab with densely engraved words on it.
epitaph.
The light from the fire was weak, so Nie Yunfei took the bluestone out of the tomb.
After squatting under the pine tree and carefully reading the words on the epitaph for a while, Nie Yunfei suddenly raised his head.
An uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.
"Sure enough, I guessed it right!!"
Nie Yunfei excitedly clapped his hands repeatedly, laughed a few times, chopped the epitaph into pieces with his sword, and hurriedly rushed out.
It turns out that this epitaph actually records the deeds related to the white jade tablets of the Nine Chapters of Tianji!!
From the epitaph, we learned that the owner of this tomb was named Meng Xi, a young master from a declining family more than five hundred years ago, and he held a white jade piece of the Nine Chapters of Heaven's Secret passed down from his family.
When he was young, this man had a good spear and stick, so he went around to compete with some martial arts families at that time, but it was difficult to find an opponent.
But in the end, they were defeated by the Mu family from the western suburbs of Leping City in Muzhou.
Meng Xi, who was young and frivolous at that time, was naturally upset.
After that, Meng Xi practiced hard behind closed doors. Three years later, he found the Mu family again.
But no matter how much Meng Xi begged, the Mu family refused to compete with him again. In the end, the door was even closed and they no longer paid attention to him.
In a rage, Meng Xi took out the white jade piece of Nine Chapters of Tianji that was passed down from his family, and promised that if he could win for the second time, he would offer this treasure with both hands.
The Mu family was shocked when they heard this, so they naturally agreed.
But in this battle, Meng Xi was still defeated.
This piece of white jade has been lost to the Mu family since then.
Forty years later, Meng Xi, who was seriously ill, was still brooding over the fact that he had lost the white jade piece when he was young, and felt that he had no face to see his ancestors.
Then he ordered his family to make a belt full of jade pieces according to the style of the white jade pieces in the Nine Chapters of Tianji, and bury him with him.
In other words, this piece of white jade is most likely still in the hands of the descendants of the Mu family!!
How could he, Nie Yunfei, not be overjoyed when he learned this clue?
Of course, he went straight to the western suburbs of Leping City, which was recorded on the epitaph, to find out whether the Mu family was now safe.
…
It is said that after Du Juaner left Tieshan Temple, Su Wangting sat in meditation in the Main Hall as agreed.
With the smoke curling up and the monks worshiping the Buddha and chanting sutras, the past events came to mind unconsciously.
He, who was always calm and composed, actually shed tears several times.
Past events that can make people cry must be unbearable to look back on.
And the past that is unbearable to look back on often creates two types of people.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
A kind of person will sink from then on, become self-degenerate, and even go crazy.
The other type will become inexplicably open-minded, as if they have seen through everything in the world of mortals, and have no desires or desires.
Two completely opposite consequences.
Pukong often explained Buddhist scriptures to him in person, and he was attentive and good at teaching him. Su Wangting listened devoutly, and gradually, he felt a lot of relief in his heart.
Seeing that the abbot of Tieshan Temple personally answered his questions, Su Wangting felt more than flattered. He secretly said that the abbot of the largest temple in the world is indeed extraordinary. In addition to being proficient in Buddhist principles, his state of mind is also otherworldly. In a word,
Every word and every gesture reveals his extremely high quality.
Su Wangting even felt that it was too late to meet Pukong. If he could ask him for advice from time to time, he would definitely benefit a lot.
Three days later in the evening, the sound of Amitabha awakened Su Wangting from his meditation. When he looked up, he saw a monk from Luohan Hall in black robes standing with his hands clasped in front of him, saying that the abbot would like to invite him.
Su Wangting thought about it and agreed. Three days had passed, and Pukong must have wanted to say goodbye to him. He could leave Tieshan Temple early tomorrow morning and set off for Shuangta Town to meet up with Poison Master and Murong Yunxiu.
Thinking of this, Su Wangting's spirits perked up, he said, "I'd like to help you lead the way," and got up and followed the monk.
Outside the abbot's Zen room, the monk asked Su Wangting to open the door and go inside. He said that the abbot and abbot were waiting inside. After saying this, the monk hurriedly left with a hint of panic.
Su Wangting frowned and looked at the monk trotting along. He thought to himself that this was strange, and then knocked on the door three times, waiting for Pukong's response.
But for a long time, no one in the meditation room answered.
"Abbott, Su Wangting, I'm sorry." Su Wangting said and opened the door.
Entering the Zen room, you will see Pukong with his back to the door, sitting cross-legged on the bed, facing a statue of Sakyamuni hanging on the wall.
Seeing that Pukong did not turn around, Su Wangting only said that he was reciting scriptures silently, so he closed the door quietly and stood aside, waiting quietly.
After the scene of a stick of incense, Pukong remained motionless.
"Abbott..." Su Wangting called softly.
Still no response.
"Abbott, I'm Su Wangting." Su Wangting raised his voice and bowed.
Pukong still didn't move even half a minute.
Su Wangting raised his head sharply!
Something is wrong!!
"Abbot!!"
Su Wangting stepped forward and patted Pukong's shoulder. Pukong's head suddenly drooped, his body leaned to the side, and he fell on the floor.
Su Wangting's pupils shrank suddenly, he turned Pukong over and stretched out two fingers to feel his breath.
died!?
Check his pulse again.
Su Wangting took two steps back.
died!!
The abbot of Tieshan Temple, the largest martial arts sect, suddenly died!?
Suppressing the panic in his heart, Su Wangting observed Pukong's face, and soon he came to the conclusion that he was poisoned.
Then he pulled open Pukong's clothes, and suddenly a purple-black palm print appeared on his chest!!
"First he was poisoned and lost his ability to resist, and then his heart was shattered by a palm and he died..." Su Wangting quickly speculated on the process of Pukong's death.
At this time, two lines of black blood flowed out of Pukong's nostrils.
Suddenly there was a creaking sound, and a black-clothed warrior monk pushed open the door and entered.
"You...you killed the abbot!!!"
The monk slammed the door and fled.
Soon, I heard bursts of hurried footsteps outside the door, and I could faintly hear Puci's roar coming from far away.
"Not good!" Su Wangting looked at the door coldly, and he immediately understood the general idea.
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a bang and the door was kicked violently.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Opened. A group of elite monks from Luohan Hall filed in and surrounded Su Wangting.
Then, Puci walked in, stroking his beard.
"In order for Tieshan Temple to legitimately fight for the Nine Chapters of Heavenly Secrets, you actually did this to the abbot and the abbot." Su Wangting stared at Pu Ci with cold eyes.
Pu Ci shouted angrily: "You bastard!! You bold maniac, the abbot of our temple has been kind to you, but you don't know what is good and you actually kill people! Do you know how big a deal it is to kill the abbot and abbot of Tieshan Temple!?"
Su Wangting remained silent.
Because he understands that if someone deliberately sets up a situation to wrongly accuse him, no matter how he tries to defend himself, it will be useless!
It would be futile and foolish to argue at this point.
Su Wangting looked at Pu Kong's kind face, shook his head, and sighed: "Pu Ci, you are an accomplished monk who has been practicing for many years. I never expected that your heart would be as poisonous as a snake or scorpion! You are in vain for your Dharma name.
It has the word 'compassion' in it, and you can even kill your own senior brother!!"
"Shut up! You have committed such a heinous crime. Heaven and earth will not tolerate you. You should be punished!!"
After finishing speaking, Pukong waved his hand.
All the monks shouted in unison and swung the weapons in their hands towards Su Wangting!!
"boom!"
Rubble fell and dust flew.
Su Wangting disappeared on the spot, and a big hole appeared in the roof above his head.
Break out!
"Chase!!"
Puci's roar came from the Zen room.
As soon as he stepped out of the roof and stood still, he saw three monks waiting on the roof.
"Hmph, have you already surrounded this place?" Su Wangting's hand held the handle of the knife at his waist.
The three monks were speechless. They all shouted softly. They released all their energy and struck out with three swords like lightning!
The speed of the sword is not inferior to Nie Yunfei in the slightest!!
No wonder that when he was at Ye's house that day, he, Nie Yunfei, was besieged by three Luohan Hall monks and almost couldn't escape.
Su Wangting was instantly enveloped in a cold light.
In just a few breaths, more than a hundred knives had already passed through Su Wangting's body, and the sword energy flying around caused the tiles on the roof to fly all over the sky!!
"Stop!" a monk suddenly shouted.
The three of them stopped swinging their knives.
Because they discovered that Su Wangting's figure in front of them had gradually dispersed.
"Afterimage!?"
The three monks looked at each other.
"A bunch of evil monks, deserve to die." A cold voice suddenly came from above the heads of the three people!!
Before the three of them had time to look up, they saw a figure suddenly land in the middle of the three of them.
"Kang-dang, bang-dang, bang-dang..."
As the broken tiles fell from the sky, the figure stood up.
Those five slender fingers loosened the handle of the knife at his waist.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
Three monks fell down one after another.
Those six eyes are still wide open.
There are three bare Tianling caps, each with a thin opening.
The tiny opening of the brain can be seen deeply!!
In just an instant, three knives came down from top to bottom and penetrated directly into the heads of the three people!!
At this time, another dozen monks climbed onto the roof. Seeing the three people lying down on the roof, they were startled for a moment, and then they all looked at the unsheathed long knife on Su Wangting's waist.
"Your evil deeds will be punished by God."
After finishing speaking, Su Wangting looked through the big hole in the roof at his feet and bowed deeply to Pukong's body below.
Immediately, all the monks felt their eyes flicker, and Su Wangting disappeared.
