"So happy? I think you have been ready to give it to me for a long time, right? You just want some benefits, right?"
Seeing that Lin Jin agreed to his suggestion without any hesitation, Lafayette chuckled and saw Lin Jin's thoughts.
"There's no need to be so straightforward, right? As for asking me to find a time to ask for it from you, the agreement you made with Elder Zhou must be about his disciple Yan Qi, right?"
Although Lin Jin didn't know the specific content of the agreement, he could still guess a thing or two by observing the subtle relationship between the two.
"More or less, it's just that he wanted to save his disciple's chance to return to the sect. Although it can be seen that Yan Qi has no intention of returning to the sect... You don't need to know too much. Recently, I always feel that something is about to happen. I feel that something is about to happen.
Renxiang must have come back for some reason..."
"You should still practice diligently. If something happens, others will say that I, the old Buddha, cannot take care of my disciples."
Lafayette's words made Lin Jin roll his eyes immediately. Without saying anything, he said hello and left Tianyang Peak.
Since there was nothing too urgent, Lin Jin walked to the foot of Tianyang Peak, stepped on the tender grass, and admired the lush trees, flowers, and vines around him. Lin Jin was really entranced for a while.
"Hurry up, otherwise we won't be able to see the first murder scene!"
"Immediately, immediately, don't rush me, I want to see which blind person dares to kill our disciples of Guquan Xianzong!"
"Excuse me, what can you do to others like this? Maybe they are some high-level casual cultivators who kill people without batting an eyelid. You don't even know if they chop you up..."
Several outer disciples of Guquan Xianzong were beating and scolding each other while walking towards the mountain gate.
Although he was only an unknown disciple of the Guquan Immortal Sect, and he had not developed any very respectful belief in the Guquan Immortal Sect, after all, he was already a member of the Guquan Immortal Sect. Lin Jin stopped a disciple.
"I would like to ask this senior brother, what happened to you looking like this?"
It seemed that the word "senior brother" made the disciple very happy. He adjusted his Taoist uniform and said, "You don't know about this junior brother? Several fellow disciples were found murdered in a mountain forest outside the mountain gate of our Guquan Xianzong!"
"You dare to kill our fellow sect members outside the mountain gate. Isn't it a bit arrogant?" Lin Jin said "angrily", and the pretense made Lin Jin almost laugh.
"Yeah, let's not talk about it. If you want to see it, hurry up and follow me. It seems that one of the elder's direct disciples has died, and the elder has already rushed away." After saying that, he chased after the other disciples.
"Well, let's go take a look."
With his spiritual consciousness transmitted, he stood up with his sword and followed closely behind those disciples.
In the mountain forest not far outside the mountain gate, many disciples, both male and female, had gathered to watch.
Everyone was whispering to a hollow in the forest and making guesses.
What was inside the depression was none other than several corpses whose bodies had been cold for a long time. The murderer seemed to want to provoke Guquan Xianzong's face, so he arranged several corpses in a flower shape along the edge of the depression, and the flower center part
There was also a disciple who had a bloody hole in his chest.
"Get out of the way, Elder Xiao is here..."
An old elder came to the crowd angrily, dragging his long robes. His wrinkled old face and his expression made it look like the sword was still powerful despite its age.
As if seeing the death of his disciple, Elder Xiao's tears were squeezed to the edge of his eyes. He moved the disciple in the center to his side: "Disciple... my disciple..."
Among the crowd of onlookers, Lin Jin quietly looked at Elder Xiao who was holding his disciple, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
No matter what, Lin Jin didn't want to see such a scene.
"It turns out...the distance between life and death is only a thin line."
Whispering to himself, Lin Jin was pulled back from his thoughts at this moment because another elder came to the crowd!
"Look, it's Elder Deng Tianshan who specializes in enforcing criminal laws in the sect!"
As soon as the disciple mentioned it, "intense discussion" began among the crowd.
Arriving next to Elder Xiao, Deng Tianshan's eyes did not waver at all. He just said calmly: "Xiao Zongkuang, you have to pay attention to your image. You are an elder of the same school."
Lin Jin frowned slightly in the crowd and thought to himself: This law enforcement elder does have some potential as a law enforcer, but if he doesn't care about his disciples' lives, he must be just a ruthless elder.
Holding up the dead man, Xiao Zongkuang stood up slowly, with a hint of murderous intent, and said slowly: "I don't care what you say, or how you deal with the deaths of those disciples. I only ask you, how do you treat my disciples?"
How to deal with death? Huh?"
Deng Tianshan's thin eyebrows moved slightly, and he glanced at Xiao Zongkuang without saying anything.
Seeing that the two elders seemed to be at loggerheads, many disciples in the crowd began to chat about the past of law enforcement elder Deng Tianshan.
It turns out that similar incidents have happened before, but Deng Tianshan did not deal with it severely, but took it easy. The reason is: such things can only be blamed on those disciples who are not good at learning and have insufficient cultivation. How can I waste my time on such a trivial matter?
What about practice time?
Because he did not agree with his remarks, Xiao Zongkuang suggested that Deng Tianshan's position as law enforcement elder should be given to another capable person.
Although it was unsuccessful in the end, the relationship between the two was still tense.
"Don't look at me with that look. Since I am an inner disciple and your direct disciple, I will naturally not let the murderer go easily."
Deng Tianshan seemed to have no intention of continuing to "fight" with Xiao Zongkuang.
Now that he got the answer he wanted, Xiao Zongkuang nodded slightly and said, "That's good. Let's take a look at the cause of their death first and see if you can see some clues."
Now that he understood the general story and extension of the incident, Lin Jin was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, the slogan "Trade the murderer" suddenly rang out from the crowd.
In response to the call, many disciples began to be "enthusiastic" and kept stirring up the atmosphere at the scene.
"Okay, okay, don't make any noise, I'll check the situation first!"
Deng Tianshan's words made all the disciples present quiet down.
Deng Tianshan came to the depression and inspected each corpse, and then said to Xiao Zongkuang: "There are no scars of sword energy, only the residual formation aura left on the body. It should be trapped by the formation.
and ultimately death.”
Xiao Zongkang's breathing was slightly rapid and he said: "Is it the Spirit-Creating and Killing Heavenly Formation?"
Glancing at the inner disciple Xiao Zongkuang was dragging, Deng Tianshan nodded: "That's right, but I think it's a little different from the authentic Tianzhen Sect's formation. I think it was probably their disciples who did it."
The surrounding disciples began to discuss the origin of the Tianzhen Sect, and suddenly, the crowd began to make noise again.
But a voice suddenly came from the crowd, making everyone fall silent.
"It's definitely someone from the Tianzhen Sect who did it!"
The crowd was very noisy, so no one noticed where the sound came from, except Lin Jin.
A wretched disciple with a short stature and ghostly eyes squeezed into the crowd and used his spiritual power to move his abdomen, so that he made a sound without passing through his mouth.
Because that person was on Lin Jin's left hand side, and Lin Jin was about to leave, he accidentally discovered this person.
Now that it was over, one sentence immediately caused an explosion among everyone.
"Qiu Ming, I think your friend from the formation gate that day has some evil intentions!"
"Yes, it seems that those from Tianzhen Sect are not good people!"
"Yes! I think the murderer is a disciple of the Tianzhen Sect!"
"..."
Because of one sentence, the scene began to become chaotic.
