Dangshan is located in the south of Yongcheng in the Song Dynasty, adjacent to Dangze, more than a hundred miles away from Langshan, between Song Dynasty and Chen Dynasty, and not far from the Zheng Kingdom in the northwest.
Luo Lingfu chose this place as the gathering place, which probably had a lot to do with the case.
Wu Sheng stepped on the reeds, crossed Dangze, and came to the foot of Dangshan Mountain. He quickly recognized the familiar valley.
Back then, when Zuo Shenyin and Mai came to Dangshan Mountain to refine elixirs and destroyed the cave of Longquan Sect Master Xue and the Sixth Elder in one fell swoop, they entered through this valley.
With a feeling of nostalgia, Wu Sheng walked into the valley, recalling the hardships of that day, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, how many years has it been like this?
Just as he was counting the days on his fingers, he looked up and saw Xue Zhong walking in the capital of Ying.
Xue Zhong stood on the hillside on the left, looking at the valley, not knowing what he was thinking.
Wu Sheng went over to say hello: "Brother Xue, I'm late again. It seems that no matter where I go, Brother Xue never arrives before me. I'm so ashamed! Brother Xue... What are you doing, Brother Xue?"
Xue Zhong sighed and said to Wu Sheng: "I remembered something..."
Wu Sheng asked: "What are you thinking about so much? Do you need my help?"
Xue Zhongdao: "My uncle disappeared back then. The last time he appeared was here. He was accidentally seen by a woodcutter in the mountains. He has never been seen again since then."
Wu Sheng asked again: "Who is brother Xue and uncle?"
Xue Zhongdao: "When I came along the Dang River, I encountered a checkpoint and asked me for money to cross the river. Do you know where I am from?"
Wu Sheng was surprised: "Someone dares to ask Brother Xue for money to cross the river?"
Xue Zhongdao: "I gave ten ant nose coins without revealing my identity. They said they were from Zuoyi. I asked them which doctor they were, and they said they were after Zuo Bo, haha..."
Wu Sheng frowned: "Uncle Zuo?"
Xue Zhong smiled and said: "It's Zuo Shenyin. He calls himself Uncle Zuo, which is very ridiculous... A Shenyin Sect has set the checkpoint for collecting money above the Dang River. What do you think he wants to do? From
Langshan goes north to Dangshui, one hundred and fifty miles away. No matter how big the sect is, no one dares to add one hundred and fifty miles to their own name. They really think that this place belongs to Song, Chen, Chu,
Isn’t there no one taking care of the border area between Zhengzhou and Zhengzhou?”
Wu Sheng had long heard from the Ying brothers and Wan Tao Valley Master that what Zuo Shenyin did in Langshan was done in accordance with the regulations of the princes. Later, he personally visited Langshan at night and found that it was true.
in this way.
Zuo Shenyin was messing with his Zuo Kingdom in Langshan. As long as he didn't run out, not many people would care about him. But now he has expanded one hundred and fifty miles and openly set up a card to collect money on Dangshui River. It's a bit troublesome.
After all, it is clear that a large area of land is included in the bag. Do you really think that you can do whatever you want just at the junction of the princes?
"Why did Brother Xue mention Zuo Shenyin again? Is your uncle's disappearance related to Zuo Shenyin?" Asking this question, Wu Sheng suddenly realized that something was wrong. Xue Zhong's surname was Xue! So Xiaoyi asked: "Uncle Gui...
…who is it?”
Xue Zhong suddenly bowed solemnly to Wu Sheng and saluted: "I never had time to say that my uncle was the former head of the Longquan Sect. Zhong lost his father when he was young. It was his uncle who raised him. He had no heirs and treated Zhong like his own son.
It's a pity that my uncle died at the hands of a thief, and Zhong Shi hates him. He often spends nights sighing and tossing and turning. Fortunately, the cause of his death has finally been found out, and it was Brother Sun's fault. Zhong Ming is deeply moved!"
Wu Sheng was very uneasy and hurriedly went over to help him: "Brother Xue should not be like this. I just did a trivial thing. I... deeply regret the death of Sect Leader Xue..."
Xue Zhongdao: "If I hadn't had my brother Sun, I would have been kept in the dark all my life. As for regrets, I haven't found my uncle's body so far. This is the biggest regret!"
Wu Sheng couldn't help but glance at the depths of the valley. There was a stone cave inside. The entrance of the cave was buried by man-made collapse. That was the burial place of Longquan Sect Xue Ba and a group of elders.
Of course, there is no need to talk about these things, and there is no point in telling Xue Zhong. The bones were stuffed into the fire eye in the hole. Where can they find it? He can't point to the fire eye and tell Xue Zhong that your uncle's body was from
Is it stuffed in here?
While he was talking, Suiyue, who was walking with the city, also arrived and asked Xue Zhong and Wu Sheng: "Do you know what the purpose of coming to Dangshan this time is?"
Xue Zhong was not sure either. He looked at Wu Sheng and Wu Sheng muttered: "Maybe it's about longevity pills. I don't know the details. I'll wait until the time comes to practice."
Luo Lingfu arrived at Dangshan in the evening, bringing only two Talisman masters, Yusheng and Xiao Jianshi. From this, it can be seen that those present should be Luo Lingfu’s core team in the academy. Needless to say, Yusheng and Xiao Jianshi, who have followed him for many years
The disciples, Xue Zhong and Sui Yue were his close friends and old friends in the academy, and Wu Sheng was the one who came to Yangzhou with his sharp eyes. They were all his confidants.
In front of these people, everything was unspeakable, so Luo Lingfu got straight to the point: "Formerly, the academy used Zuo Shenyin to sit in Langshan to help him establish a sect and recruit monks from all over, in order to prevent the loose cultivators from lacking restraint in the world.
To bring harm to the world, what he wants is peace. Unexpectedly, after his strength increased, he gradually began to have evil intentions, imposed excessive taxes, and practiced illegal activities for personal gain, which disappointed everyone in the academy and made all the monks feel chilled. After investigation, it was found that he had tortured and killed fellow practitioners, and destroyed Longquan.
Zong Manmen's move later led to the crime of secretly refining forbidden elixirs and leaking heavenly secrets. What's worse, he used his fault to threaten the academy, asking for the status of the princes, and threatened that if he couldn't get it, he would falsely accuse the academy and blame him for his fault.
As you all follow, the situation is as rampant as this!"
Listening to Luo Lingfu's enumeration of Zuo Shenyin's sins, Xue Zhong's eyes shone brightly: "Just tell me what to do if you follow the instructions? Although Zhong is not talented, he is willing to go to Langshan to be the first to fight!"
Sui Yue also said: "I have long disliked that guy. I said back then that a biting dog will not bark, but the left thief is silent and shady! You want to ask about the position of the princes? What the hell!"
"
Luo Lingfu said: "The misdeeds of Mr. Zuo are so obvious that people and gods are indignant. To eliminate this evil villain will bring great joy to people's hearts. There is no doubt about this. However, when handling cases in the academy, we must also pay attention to the completeness of the witnesses and material evidence, so as to ensure that the evidence is as solid as a mountain. Otherwise, I will greatly respect you all."
It’s hard to explain. Previously, Sun Wu had found out about Langshan secretly refining and selling longevity pills, so he summoned you all to join forces and take down this line first... Sun Wu, tell me.
.”
Wu Sheng hurriedly described in detail the place, people and methods of selling longevity pills.
After he finished his story, Luo Lingfu said: "The buyer is not to blame. The cave where the money is collected, the thief's hiding place, and the delivery place must all be taken down, including the monkey! This time we take the person, with Sun.
The general plan of the five palms is not to let anyone escape. After taking them all, they will be sent to Dangshan immediately. I will wait for you here!"
Everyone agreed in a loud voice, and Luo Lingfu warned again: "Remember, you must act quickly, your shots must be accurate, you must capture people completely, and your words must be tight. You must not let a thief escape, let alone leak any information!"
