The terrifying situation that happened at the outer door was transmitted upward layer by layer with lightning speed. When it reached the ears of the three elders all the way, the three elders were still sitting under the cloud, waiting for the two people above the cloud to leave Yu. Take down the dust sword.

The three were caught off guard, and Qi Yunwei even exclaimed: "What?!"

Duan Muxu bit Qi Yunwei tightly and said with a stern voice, "Don't make any noise! ​​Tell the matter slowly!"

"Uncle Duanmu, let me explain this matter in detail." Xue Tianzong's voice sounded from behind.Coming up from the peak, he first saluted Zhai Yushan, then faced the three elders, explained the matter one by one, and emphasized that 35 people disappeared at the outer gate, but everyone didn't notice it, and they still asked him repeatedly. I remembered them one by one.

Duanmuxu asked sensitively: "How did you find out about this?"

"Disciple..." Xue Tianzong paused, and concealed the section of the Heavenly Book, "It was the disciple Luo You who went to the outer gate to find a disciple who couldn't find him, so he reported it and let the disciple know."

Duanmuxu didn't ask any more questions.With a gloomy complexion, he thought about it, and said to the two elders on the left and right: "This matter is strange, the head is still in a coma now, and it may not be appropriate to cause a big incident..."

Xue Tianzong looked at Master.

After he reported the matter, the face of law enforcement elder Zhai Yushan was extremely terrifying.

He was sure that the master would never agree with the opinion of the elder holding the sword.

Under everyone's eyes, Di Yushan's face was rigid, and every wrinkle on his face was portrayed with rigidity and sternness. Di Yushan moved his lips and said, "This matter..."

The commotion suddenly came from the group of disciples under the high platform!

Several people on the high platform looked towards the direction of the commotion, and saw that at first it was just a few disciples whispering to each other, and then within two breaths, before any of them had time to speak, the commotion engulfed the audience like a plague in the blink of an eye!

At this time again, the clouds moved in the sky, and two figures flew down from the sky and landed in front of the high platform.

Duanmuxu looked quickly, and saw that Yuanyinliu and Yanzhenci had come down with the Li Yuchen sword!

He left other things behind, immediately stood up from his seat, and went forward, just before Yuanyinliu holding the dust sword, he saw Yuanyinliu gently pull the sword from the cloth wrapped in the sword, revealing the sword body.

The sword body full of cracks suddenly appeared in Duanmuxu's sight.Duanmuxu's mind hummed lightly, his movements were faster than his thoughts, and he immediately pressed Yuanyinliu's sword-drawing hand.

Looking at each other, Yuan Yinliu said sincerely: "Elder..."

Duan Muxu answered immediately: "There is no need to say more about the sound flow, I understand everything!"

The master was seriously injured, the treasure was injured, and the disciple disappeared.

With a snap of his fingers, thousands of thoughts flowed through his mind.

After snapping his fingers, he held Yuan Yinliu's hand, and held up the cloth-covered dust sword together: "Here is the dust sword, all disciples kneel down!" Then, without waiting for the discussion, the disciples really cast their eyes on , he sternly said again, "The law enforcement elder will immediately investigate the disappearance of the outer disciple thoroughly, and find the real culprit within three days!"

The sound was like thunder, rolling over the mountains.

All the disciples' ears were buzzing, unable to talk, subconsciously followed the old rules, and bowed down to Duanmu Xuhe Yuanyinliu who held the dust sword together.

On the high platform, Yuan Yinliu said again: "Elder."

Duanmuxu's voice was softer than at any other moment in his life. Fearing that he would be careless, he startled Yuan Yinliu, causing the Li Yuchen sword in his hand to be faulty: "What's wrong with Yinliu?"

Original sound stream: "You pinched my wrist."

Standing beside Yuan Yinliu, Yan Zhenci saw with his own eyes that the smile on Duan Muxu's face froze for a moment.He had no sympathy, but gloated.

At this moment, someone shouted again: "This is impossible!"

Several elders looked together with Xue Tianzong, and there was only one person standing on the spot under the high platform, and it was the Taoist master of the outer sect!Seeing that everyone's eyes were fixed on him, the Taoist said in a trembling voice: "This matter cannot be dealt with by the law enforcement elders. Just now, several disciples from my outer sect said that they had seen the law enforcement elders contact the missing disciples and appear at the scene of the incident. Place!"

There was a loud thunder on the ground, which shocked the minds of those present and made their bodies numb!

Duan Muxu, who just calmly pressed the matter of Li Yuchen's sword, went dark for a while, and couldn't speak in time in his haste.

Up and down the mountain, the mountain wind is silent.In the silence, Zhai Yushan closed his eyes under Xue Tianzong's astonished gaze: "I will avoid suspicion about this matter, and the other two elders will take charge of the overall situation."

The disciples were already at a loss, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

After a while, Duan Muxu said in a deep voice, "Elder Chuan Gong is in charge of this matter, with Xue Tianzong assisting."

The voice fell, and the cloud and panic permeating the disciple's heart could not be blown away, but at this moment, Duan Muxu was temporarily unable to deal with these, so he pulled the original sound flow, and said in a low voice: "Follow me with the Li Yuchen sword." The words and pillows following the flow of the original sound said: "You go back first."

Words: "..."

Yuanyin Liushen was involuntarily taken away by Duan Muxu, so he could only seize the last moment to turn around and say: "Go back to the house first, and help me prepare my clothes, dinner, and bath water. Remember that the water can't be cold, it can't If it is hot, you need to pick thirteen different petals and sprinkle them on the surface of the water one by one—”

There is a lonely mountain and a single stone, and the sky is round and the palace is square.

This is the round hall where the sword palace enforces the law, which means "the world is round, and people's hearts are square".

The disappearance of the outer disciples is being carried out under the auspices of Qi Yunwei, one by one clues have been collected in the hands of Qi Yunwei and Xue Tianzong, and all the suspicions point to Zhai Yushan.

Xue Tianzong stood in the Fangyuan Hall, and reported to Qi Yunwei one by one the things he had investigated so far.

The female crown sits under the statue of the patriarch, her eyes are slightly closed, and her face is neither happy nor sad.

The door of the hall was closed tightly, and the boy who was sweeping the fallen leaves in the courtyard also knew that something was wrong, so he held his breath and concentrated on walking along the base of the wall.

The rustle of the bamboo broom mopping the floor went and came back.Qi Yunwei's voice finally sounded in the hall, and there was only one sentence: "I see, let Elder Zhai come in."

This Fangyuantang was supposed to be the palace of the law enforcement elders, but now the law enforcement elders have to wait outside, waiting for the call.

Xue Tianzong was full of internal worries, but his face was colder and calmer, and he said: "Uncle Qi, this incident must be to fight against Master."

Qi Yunwei said: "Don't let the law enforcement elders participate in this matter to avoid suspicion; let you be my deputy to be fair. If you shouldn't say it, don't say it; if you shouldn't do it, don't do it. Now, go down and call someone."

Xue Tianzong was speechless for a moment, then agreed: "Yes."

He turned and left the palace, and when he stepped out of the palace gate, he saw Di Yushan standing next to Dushi at a glance.

Zhai Yushan's gaze met Xue Tianzong's, and instantly understood his disciple's unspoken hesitation.

He picked up his steps and walked past Xue Tianzong, walking slowly into Fangyuan Hall.

Master's face and figure are still the same as before.

Xue Tianzong looked back, at the moment when the main hall door was closed, he saw Qi Yunwei sitting cross-legged on the ground, and Di Yushan knelt down slowly, just like all the erring disciples who entered Fangyuantang.

The mountains are falling, and the light is suddenly cold.

Closed doors hide everything.

Xue Tianzong waited for a long time, but did not hear any voice from the hall.

He was extremely worried, but his heart gradually calmed down, because he suddenly understood what he should do.

He left the Fangyuan Palace, took many detours along the way, and walked up and down the Sword Palace. He saw the cold snow on the high mountains, and sprouts under the rocks. Everything was so similar to his memory when he first came to the Sword Palace.But the disciples walking in the Sword Palace were in groups of three or five, their brows were not relaxed, and their expressions were vigilant.

Xue Tian stood with his hands behind his back, quietly thinking:

As a disciple of three generations, I can't share my teacher's worries at the top, and I can't solve the problems of the disciples at the bottom. How negligent of duty?There is such a disaster in the Sword Palace today, I have an inescapable fault.

He didn't stay any longer, turned back to his residence, and recruited two apprentices: "I know everything about your master. You can't believe all the rumors outside. The master has the grace to nurture and teach me. The master has a return to you." Care and love. You need to think more about things, and you must not make your loved ones hurt, and your enemies be quick."

Luo and Chu said together: "Disciple understands!"

Xue Tianzong still wanted to explain a few more words, but when the words came to his lips, seeing the worried looks of the two disciples, he stopped them again, thinking that it is not appropriate to make extra troubles at this time, so he let the two disciples go down.He himself took the heavenly book and walked to the place where the original sound stream was located.

Before this road was different, Xue Tianzong walked extremely fast, but he arrived at Yuan Yinliu's residence in a short while and knocked on the door.

The door "squeaked" opened, but it was not the original sound stream that opened the door, but the words.

Yan Zhenci was the first to say: "Uncle Master is here to find Yinliu?" He turned sideways to give up his seat, "He's right inside."

Xue Tian looked inside and saw the room where two carbon basins had been burned. Yuan Yinliu was lying on the couch wrapped in a fur cloak, covering his mouth with his hands, and yawned big.

Li Yuchen finally saw the sword, but Zhu Xian did not recover as expected.

The original sound stream is quite boring, and a bit depressed, sitting in the room and playing chess with Yan Zhenci.

The game of chess has just reached its peak when Xue Tianzong has already arrived.

He threw the chess piece into the chess box, turned to Xue Tianzong, and laughed in surprise as soon as he saw the person clearly: "Good uncle, what are you going to do? Why do you have a generous expression on your face?"

Xue Tianzong glanced at the words.

Yan Zhenci said indifferently: "I know, I will go out right away, so as not to disturb your conversation."

After he finished speaking, he really got up and left, and closed the door for the two of them.

Xue Tian took two steps forward, took out the heavenly book, and returned it to the other party: "This thing is from the West Building, you should keep it safe."

Yuan Yinliu took the book and was about to open it when one hand was pressed on the cover of the book.

Xue Tianzong said: "This book is weird, you can't read it casually."

Yuan Yinliu stopped turning over the book, glanced at Xue Tianzong, and said with a sudden smile: "The Heavenly Book told Uncle Xue about the strangeness of the Sword Palace, but Master Xue doesn't plan to read the Heavenly Book any more to find out who is behind the scenes and find a solution?"

Xue Tianzong looked cold: "What do you mean? What do you know?"

Yuan Yinliu sighed: "I don't mean anything, and I don't know anything. I only know that the matter has developed to the present, and it is no longer a pursuit of the truth, but a pursuit of the result."

Xue Tianzong said: "Isn't the result the truth?"

Yuan Yinliu smiled: "The truth is the truth, and the result is the result. Isn't the result of the elder who holds the sword admitting his mistake, abdicating, and dying, exactly what everyone in the Sword Palace is thinking at this moment?"

Xue Tianzong was silent for a long time, and then said: "Yuan Yinliu, you have the reputation of Xilou, can you teach me?"

Yuan Yinliu said: "It depends on what kind of result my uncle wants to achieve."

Xue Tianzong said to himself: "What kind of result do I want?" He said, "I want to find out the real culprit and return Master's innocence."

The original sound flow said again: "But the interrogation will start tomorrow."

Xue Tianzong: "That's right, I don't have time anymore."

The original sound flow said: "You have. Those who are obsessed with getting the result tomorrow just need the result, and give them one. After that, how about you give the truth to those who want the truth?" What should I do? I just keep my heart."

Xue Tian raised his eyebrows like a sword out of its sheath: "You mean—"

"Oh," Yuan Yinliu turned to look out the window, "I didn't say anything."

A faint smile flickered on Xue Tianzong's lips.

He had already decided to bear all the charges and use his death to buy time for Master and find out the real culprit behind the scenes.

But after a conversation with the original sound stream, he no longer thinks so.

Since he knew that his master was definitely not the murderer, why did he use his own death to pin the crime on the disciples of the master's line?Why do you have to die to let the real murderer go unpunished?Why did Master have to bear the pain of bereavement with his own death?

He suddenly withdrew the Heavenly Book handed over to Yuan Yinliu, and held it in his hand: "This book is weird, and I will continue to keep it for my nephew and grandson." Then, without waiting for Yuan Yinliu to speak, he said, "The disappearance of the disciples from the outer sect has been investigated. It's almost time, Elder Qi Yunwei will hear this matter in Jietian Hall tomorrow, you must not be absent."

After all, he turned to leave.

It's getting late, the moon is hidden behind the clouds, and the darkness is pressing down.

He urged his fingertips, and his strength entered the book of heaven, destroying the dead.

This book leads you to solve the murder case, so why not open the heavenly book to find the murderer and get the solution?

Heresy books, treacherous and gloomy words, how can they be relied upon, how can they be trusted!

I have a sword on my body, and I walk straight with the sword, swaying demons and ghosts!

Xue Tianzong walked all the way, covered in frost and snow.

Behind him, the book of heaven turned into dust and flew all over the sky.

On the mountain road, a small piece of shredded paper floated in front of Yan Zhenci with the wind, Yan Zhenci waved the shredded paper away with the dust, and murmured: "It's okay, don't throw things around..."

Then, in the dark night, he didn't go back to Yuan Yinliu's residence, but instead went to the deputy head of the house.
