Master is respected
Chapter 75
Xie Junzhuo's denial made everyone's complexion a bit ugly, and Wang Zhuo and Tian Meng frowned even more.Before Jiang Yuehan and Xie Junzhuo came over, they had already discussed it once, and they didn't want to be secretive at the moment, just talking about the matter directly.
The land in the hands of the Bai family was not originally theirs, but Bai Zhengyu won money in the casino, and others had no money to give him, so they lost the land to him.
It's also a coincidence that this happened, according to the news from Wang Zhuo and the others, Bai Zhengyu has no fortune, and he never wins when he enters the casino.It happened that day was such a coincidence that he met someone who had more ideas than him, and the other party was also an old man who had no money to gamble. Normally, he turned his face and refused to admit it, but that day he unexpectedly cooperated and gave him what he said.
Bai Zhengyu was naturally happy when he won the money. He was afraid that the other party would go back on his word, so he called the elders in the clan to ask for a change in the land deed that day, and the other party readily agreed. The matter was completed in less than half a day, and the speed was astounding.
Bai Lu's mother felt a little uneasy, but Bai Zhengyu was happy and was still planning how to use the land. Bai Lu's mother didn't want to spoil his interest, so she didn't say anything, just told Bai Lu about it.
At that time, Bai Lu happened to be returning home from the Seven Star Sect. She was planning to go on a long trip, but she didn't go because of the delay.
Not long after that, Xie Xiaoxian got involved in it. It turned out that Xie Xiaoxian also liked the land and wanted to buy it from Lao Lai.But Lao Lai was unhappy with him, and he lost the money, so he gave the land to Bai Zhengyu.
The Bai family and the Xie family are related by marriage, and Bai Lu is a disciple of the Seven Star Sect. No matter how you look at it, Bai Zhengyu is suitable to take over this land.
Knowing that the land was in Bai Zhengyu's hands, Xie Xiaoxian was a little annoyed, but he was a person who could bear it all the time, and there was nothing wrong on the surface, and he just sent someone to discuss with Bai Zhengyu.
After Bai Zhengyu's excitement passed, he didn't care so much about the land. If someone else wanted it, he would happily sell it again, and he could still earn free money.
But it happened to be Xie Xiaoxian, because of Bai Xianxian's death, the in-law relationship between Xie Bai's family had long existed in name only, and Bai Zhengyu directly rejected Xie Xiaoxian.He said that he would not give Xie Xiaoxian half a cent even if he let the land fall into wasteland and long grass.
Bai Zhengyu's words completely annoyed Xie Xiaoxian, and the Xie family never came again.Since then, that piece of land has suddenly become a hot commodity, and many people have come to inquire and want to buy it.
Bai Zhengyu is not a fool, he also realized that something was wrong.He went to see that piece of land, it was backed by mountains and rivers, but the terrain was a bit low, and the mountains were too high and it was shaded. Other than that, there were no shortcomings, but it didn't look like a geomantic treasure.Suddenly becoming so popular, it must be Xie Xiaoxian's entrustment.
Bai Zhengyu felt that Xie Xiaoxian was looking down on others, so he simply closed the door to thank the guests without seeing anyone.After a month or two like this, the matter gradually subsided, and just when everyone was about to forget it, people from the Seven Star Sect suddenly came to visit, and their purpose was also for that piece of land.
But the difference was that it was not Bai Zhengyu who received them this time, but Bai Lu who never went back after returning from Seven Star Sect.The Seven Star School used both soft and hard methods, intimidating and luring, but Bai Lu remained indifferent, and finally invited them out politely.
Not only Xie Xiaoxian wanted a piece of land, but the Seven Star Sect also wanted it. Bai Zhengyu wondered if it was really a treasured land of geomantic omen, and began to wonder whether he should build a house and let his family move in.
It's a pity that before his plan was implemented, Bai Lu told him to give up that idea, and solemnly warned him not to touch that piece of land, just let it sit there.
Although Bai Lu was gentle, she was also a one-sided character. Bai Zhengyu listened to her and handed over the matter to her.
Afterwards, Liaocheng seemed to calm down, and no one mentioned the matter of the land, but in fact it was undercurrents.It's just that the Bai family has Bai Lu in charge, so they can barely maintain stability.
"You all know what happened after that. The Bai family didn't take out that piece of land, and they had a stalemate with Xie Xiaoxian for almost a year, until Bai Zhengyu killed someone and Bailu became evil. I think that piece of land should still be in Bailu's hands , she would rather die than hand it over."
Tian Meng felt a little heavy after talking about the results of their investigation.He didn't know what kind of land it was that could be more precious than human life.In the beginning, Bai Zhengyu did not give the land because he was dissatisfied with Xie Xiaoxian, but later the development of the situation exceeded expectations, and it gradually became impossible to give.
But why not give, no one knows.
The memories of the people in Liaocheng were dusty before the death of the Bai family. At this time, they didn't know what would happen next, so Tian Meng and the others could only rely on guesswork for some news.
Tian Meng looked at Xie Junzhuo who said nothing, hesitated for a moment and said: "I suspect that someone in the Bai family's murder was manipulated behind the scenes, deliberately planted and framed."
"Brother Tian, you don't have to be so euphemistic." Xie Junzhuo took Tian Meng's words and said with a sneer: "You can just say that it was Xie Xiaoxian's poisonous hands."
"Er..." Tian Meng rubbed his nose and said in embarrassment, "He is your father after all..."
"Don't dare, I don't think I'm worthy, so you don't have to worry about me. I didn't come back here to act like a loving father and a filial son with him. I'm here to collect debts." Xie Junzhuo leaned closer to Jiang Yuehan's side , with a cool smile on his face.
From her previous life to this life, she, Xie Junzhuo, did not come back to this life to be a dutiful son for Xie Xiaoxian.In Xie Junzhuo's heart, his father had already died [-] times.
Tian Meng sighed, every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, he doesn't know what Xie Junzhuo has gone through in the past to be able to come to this stage with Xie Xiaoxian.He was worried that Xie Junzhuo would soften his heart on this matter before, but now it seems that he really worried too much.Perhaps he should consider whether Xie Junzhuo will be too ruthless in this matter.
Jiang Yuehan could hear the deep meaning in Xie Junzhuo's words, this family relationship has been cut off completely for two lifetimes.She was heartbroken in her previous life, so she has no expectations in this life.Jiang Yuehan really loves her, even if he knows that she is the Demon Lord from his previous life, he will still soften his heart when facing her face.
To comfort her, Jiang Yuehan shook her hand under the table.
Xie Junzhuo was taken aback for a moment, then grabbed Jiang Yuehan's hand that was about to be pulled away, and held it firmly in the palm of his hand.There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of her mouth, and she felt that the master beside her was really cute.
Jiang Yuehan tried to pull away her hand, but Xie Junzhuo held it tightly, and she was a little helpless.There are still disciples discussing matters in front of her, so she can't struggle a lot and let Xie Junzhuo hold it.
No one noticed the movement under the table, Jiang Yuehan's face was indifferent, and he said calmly: "Since you asked about the land, have you found the old man who gave the land to Bai Zhengyu?"
Tian Meng's face was gloomy, and Wang Zhuo took over the topic: "The person Bai Zhengyu killed is Lao Lai."
Jiang Yuehan was startled, and Xie Junzhuo immediately frowned. At first, she was only thinking about Bai Lu, but she didn't notice who Bai Zhengyu killed.
Lao Lai transferred the land to Bai Zhengyu because Xie Xiaoxian wanted the land. He knew there was a problem with the land before he wrote the land deed.He must know why Xie Xiaoxian wanted that piece of land, but unfortunately he never had the chance to tell.Xie Xiaoxian became murderous, and used Bai Zhengyu's hand to finish him off, that is, the perfect killing and silence, and also made Bai Zhengyu a scapegoat, killing two birds with one stone.
In terms of scheming, Xie Xiaoxian really played it really well.He not only removed himself from this matter, but also established an image of being impartial and selfless. At that time, he must have felt that what he wanted would be immediately available, but he did not expect that Bai Lu, who was driven to a corner by him, would directly melt away and beat him. He was caught off guard.
"Lao Lai is dead, isn't this clue broken?" He Piao held his face and leaned on the table a little discouraged. They worked hard all morning and finally found the clue, but it just disappeared.
Everyone's mood became depressed because of He Piao's words. The key to solving the problem was clearly in front of them, but they couldn't find a way.
With a bitter face, Tian Meng pretended to be relaxed and said, "Now we can only hope that the sky will drop a pie, let us pick up a ready-made one. Otherwise, we will have to investigate Xie Xiaoxian or ask Bai Lu to understand."
"Brother Tian, you really know how to joke. There is no such good thing in the world." He Piao held his face in worry, disapproving of Tian Meng's words.If it was possible for the pie to fall from the sky, then they wouldn't be able to run all morning.
Originally, I had counted on Xie Junzhuo, but judging by her appearance, she didn't know much more than everyone else.The situation reached a deadlock, and no one spoke for a while.As soon as their conversation stopped, the voices of others in the inn became clear.
The waiter in the shop talked to himself enthusiastically, boasting to the air how beautiful the flower fairy in Liaocheng is, and goose bumps fell all over the person who laughed.The same is true for others, either excited or passionate.
He Piao rubbed his arms, feeling a chill in his heart, no matter how you looked at this scene, it looked weird.
Jiang Yuehan's gaze swept across the lobby, and his eyes fell on a table not far away. There was a drunk young man over there. There were good wine and food on other tables, but he had a stack of empty plates in front of him. , only full of wine.
Jiang Yuehan took Xie Junzhuo's hand, motioned her to look at the young man and said, "Do you know that person?"
Xie Junzhuo followed Jiang Yuehan's gaze. The young man held the wine jar in one hand, stepped on the bench, and cursed at the air next to him.He was quite drunk and his hair was in a mess. Xie Junzhuo looked at it for a long time before he managed to recall him from his memory.
"He seems to be a descendant of a collateral line of the Bai family. He is the cousin of Sister Bai. I remember his name is Bai Ji. Master, what did you find out?" Xie Junzhuo couldn't see anything unusual about him, and he was no different from the others in the lobby. the difference.
Jiang Yuehan pursed his lips and said, "It's a bit strange. You see, in this inn, no one's table is full of empty plates, and someone's table is full of wine and vegetables, but in front of him are wine and empty plates. Look at his appearance. Talking to other people, and the atmosphere is not harmonious. He doesn't look like someone who came in for a drink, but he seems to come from somewhere else when he was drunk, and he just dragged someone to talk."
Jiang Yuehan's words attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at that person and listened intently to his conversation.
"Smelly girl, isn't it just a piece of land? Who is it not for sale? I can't afford it... because of his house, I paid money to buy it. Isn't it just a piece of broken land? If not, if the coffin was not dug up, He thought Lao Lai would give it to him? Unexpectedly, he kicked me out, I, I bah..."
"I bother!"
Bai Ji cursed, took a big gulp of wine, stared angrily, and said to the air in front of him, "Do you not believe me? What I said is true. The coffin, hiccup, the coffin is gone."
Bai Ji was crying and laughing, cuddling with alcohol, saying it was gone, and then swearing again.
The disciples of the Sanqing Sect looked at each other, Tian Meng straightened his body, and said, "I never thought that pies would fall from the sky."
Everyone turned to look at him, He Piao said: "You are a blind cat meeting a dead mouse."
Xie Junzhuo chuckled and shook her head. Looking at the drunk Bai Ji, she felt that it was not accidental that he appeared here.Everything in everything is under Bai Lu's control, maybe she wants to tell them something through Bai Ji's mouth.
Wang Zhuo stopped the bickering between his junior sister and Tian Meng, got up and said, "Master, do you need me to bring him here?"
Jiang Yuehan nodded, she was a little concerned about what Bai Ji said, and she finally found someone who knew, so she couldn't let it go easily.
Wang Zhuo walked over, he leaned over and said something to Bai Ji, Bai Ji listened for a long while, smiled, stood up from the stool, leaned in front of Wang Zhuo, pointed at his nose and said, "Do you want to talk to me?" If you ask for information, then give money. Money can turn ghosts around, do you know the rules?"
Bai Ji smelled of alcohol, Wang Zhuo held his breath and didn't retreat hastily.He spread out his hand, there was a certain amount of gold in his palm, he waved the gold in front of Bai Ji, and said, "Follow me, this is yours."
Bai Ji looked at Jin Zi, hehe giggled, his eyes were full of covetousness.When Wang Zhuo put the gold into his wine jar, there was a soft plop, and Bai Ji was even more delighted from ear to ear.
No one has trouble with money, and things that can be solved with money are trivial.
Bai Ji followed Wang Zhuo to Xie Junzhuo's table, and Xie Junzhuo leaned in, not wanting to get too close to Bai Ji.
Tian Meng gave up a stool to Bai Ji, who stood beside Wang Zhuo.Bai Ji looked at the group of people with extraordinary backgrounds in front of him, his brain was too drunk to react, he just thought they were foreigners who wanted to hear gossip.He held the wine jar in his arms, and stared at Jiang Yuehan and He Piao lewdly.
Xie Junzhuo glared at him displeasedly, wishing to gouge out his eyeballs, and snorted coldly: "Boy, did you just say that the coffin was dug out of the ground because you were too drunk to brag?"
No matter how you say it, Bai Ji is also Bai Lu's cousin, older than Xie Junzhuo, so Xie Junzhuo should also call him brother.But Xie Junzhuo didn't put him in his eyes, and the boy said it very disdainfully.
Lust|The lustful Bai Ji woke up suddenly, his eyes were blurred and he didn't see who the person in front of him was, so he patted the table and said, "Why do you say I'm bragging? I saw it with my own eyes."
"What did you see? Someone else dug out the coffin, so would you be invited to take a look?" Xie Junzhuo sneered, making it clear that he didn't believe Bai Ji's words, and deliberately provoked him.
Bai Ji couldn't bear the excitement, Xie Junzhuo showed disbelief the more he wanted to prove it, he said anxiously: "I saw the Seven Star Sect took that coffin away, and Xie Xiaoxian was also there, they went together."
As soon as Bai Ji finished speaking, everyone started to get serious.
Xie Junzhuo didn't continue to provoke Bai Ji, her face was extremely ugly.At first glance, this matter is just a piece of land, but the more everyone goes deeper, the more problems are involved.Now they can be sure that before Bai Zhengyu got the land, Lao Lai knew that the land was a trouble and was eager to get rid of it.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Bai Ji thought they were all under his control, and said triumphantly: "This is the news I got from Lao Lai with several jars of old wine. I originally planned to buy the land from Bai Lu and give it to Xie Xiaoxian , If he is happy, do I want anything? But that stinky girl doesn't know how to flatter her, because she offended Xie Xiaoxian with a piece of land, can their family live better? Qixingzong and Xie's family are the same, Qixingzong won't protect her at all."
Bai Ji belched, exhaled an unpleasant smell of alcohol, and cursed: "Women have long hair but short knowledge, and they don't know how to cherish the opportunity to make a fortune in front of them. If they guard a piece of unlucky land, they will be in bad luck sooner or later." Hiccup, it's best if the whole family dies..."
"Shut up!" Bai Ji's words touched Xie Junzhuo's sensitive nerves. She slapped the table and got up, grabbed Bai Ji's neck, and lifted him from the stool.
Bai Ji's memory stays before the accident in the Bai family, so how does he know that his words will be fulfilled soon after.Xie Junzhuo was stepped on and hurt his feet, he was furious, his eyes were fierce, murderous intent must be revealed in his eyes.Bai Lu was a thorn in her heart, whoever touched it recklessly would naturally have to pay the price.
The killing intent was like a glow on his back, and Bai Ji's alcohol was awakened a lot by fright.He looked at the furious Xie Junzhuo, and soon became timid, sweating profusely.
Xie Junzhuo took a deep breath, threw him back on the stool, and said, "Tell me everything you know, and if you hide something, I'll make you less fat."
Xie Junzhuo flicked out a fingertip blade, and gesticulated on Bai Ji's body threateningly.The cold light of the blade flickered, matched with Xie Junzhuo's murderous face, making the hair stand on end and the scalp numb.Bai Ji's alcoholism was completely frightened, and he didn't dare to show off any more, so he told what he knew in every detail.
Lao Lai is a bachelor, and he is the only one in the family. He can live until now thanks to the blessing of his ancestors, who have left a lot of fertile land.But he either sells the fields for money to gamble, or throws away the grass.After finally planting some crops, there are only a few sparse ones. Without fertilization or weeding, it is God's curtain to survive until the harvest.
For a person like Lao Lai who has no special skills, no matter how rich his ancestral wealth is, he can squander it.The land where the accident occurred was the last piece of fertile land in his hands, and the others were all in corners, so it was not easy to sell or grow crops.
Lao Lai also knew that it would be impossible to continue like this, so he finally cheered up and prepared to loosen the ground and plant crops honestly.But he got used to being lazy, and worked slowly, until the third day he dug out half of the tree roots.There are no trees in his field, and the roots of that knot are strange, and they extend all the way underground.
Lao Lai is not good at farming, but he has enough energy in other areas.He felt strange at the time, so he kept digging down the tree roots, and finally dug out a coffin.
It was a high-quality golden nanmu coffin, with patterns painted on it with gold powder. After sweeping off the dirt on it, it was as precious as a new one.There is also a small opening on the top of the coffin, and the tree roots grow out of it.
Lao Lai tried to open the coffin, but he tried all kinds of methods and failed to open the coffin. There was not even a scratch on the coffin.Lao Lai was also bold. He felt that there must be something good in the coffin. He didn't take any action that day but covered it with soil, and waited until night to quietly drive the ox cart to pull the coffin back.
After getting the coffin, Lao Lai dreamed of getting rich while feeling uneasy.The coffin was very strange, even if it was burned by fire, the roots of the tree were constantly growing, as if there was a tree inside.
Lao Lai tried to pull out the root of the tree to see what was inside through the hole exposed by the root, but the strange thing was that once he grabbed the root and pulled it out, the root would become transparent and he couldn't grasp it.
The uneasiness in Lao Lai's heart grew bigger and bigger, and finally he overcame his greed for money. He was about to bury the coffin back, but he was cut off by Qi Xingzong and Xie Xiaoxian.They didn't know where they knew he had a coffin, so they came to him directly.
Lin Mu was an upright gentleman, saying that the thing was an evil thing and should be destroyed as soon as possible, and he was willing to buy it from Lao Lai.
Lao Lai was agitated at the time, and asked them to take the coffin away after asking for a large sum of money.Before Lin Mu left, he told him not to tell others about this, otherwise he would be killed.
Of course Lao Lai knew, and he promised that he would keep the secret. Not long after, people from the Seven Star Sect came again, and they asked him where he got that thing from.At that time, Lao Lai had almost spent the money in his hand, so he wanted to use this matter to swindle another sum, so he refused to talk about it.
Originally, the Qixing sect sent Lao Lai's relatives with the same surname to do things cheaply, and the purpose was to let them understand with reason and move them with affection. Unexpectedly, this group of people usually dislike Lao Lai, but this time they took the opportunity to beat him up. After a pause, he hastily returned to the sect.
Lin Mo knew that they had screwed up and was furious, so he hurriedly went to Xie Xiaoxian to discuss it, but Lao Lai was one step ahead of them and directly gave the land to Bai Zhengyu.Afterwards, this troublesome matter fell into the hands of the Bai family, Lao Lai pushed it clean, and even kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about the coffin. After Xie Xiaoxian troubled him once, it was over.
Bai Ji happened to be passing by on the day he saw them taking the coffin, but he didn't think much about it. Afterwards, there was a storm in the field, and he thought about it, and got a wrong idea, and got the words out of Lao Lai's mouth.Bai Ji is usually an idler, and this great opportunity is in front of him, so he went directly to Bai Lu.
In the end, of course, he didn't please her, and was ridiculed by Bai Lu, holding a grudge, and spent a long period of time drinking away his worries.
After Bai Ji finished talking about what he knew, he looked at Xie Junzhuo in fear, fearing that Xie Junzhuo would be unhappy and turn him into a eunuch with a knife in his hand.
"Did you ask Lao Lai what's in that coffin?" Xie Junzhuo played with the fingertip blade in his hand, staring at Bai Ji.
Bai Ji shook his head quickly, and said tremblingly: "I asked, but Lao Lai didn't know. He said that the coffin was very strange. But there was one thing that was very strange. He said that Lin Mu was a little abnormal when he saw the coffin. His face was solemn, and he was elated after a while, crying and laughing, as if he was crazy."
As a master of one side, Lin Mu is usually steady and dignified, and rarely loses his composure like this.In Lao Lai's words, he was almost bewitched.
Of course, Lin Mu would not be possessed by evil spirits. He might be overjoyed because he recognized the contents of the coffin.
Bai Ji looked at Xie Junzhuo timidly, and said, "That's all I know, can I go?"
Xie Junzhuo put away the fingertip blade, stared at him with a sneer and said, "If you want to survive, some words are better left in your stomach."
Bai Ji nodded desperately, only to throw himself to the ground and swear to the sky.Only then did Xie Junzhuo wave his hand, and said like alms: "Go away."
As if he had been pardoned, Bai Ji picked up the wine jar and rushed out the door like a wild beast behind him.
Xie Junzhuo looked at his back and whispered, "Am I that scary?"
"I think the word "?" can be removed, because you were really scary just now, Junior Sister." As soon as Xie Junzhuo's voice fell, Tian Meng, who was around the table, responded cooperatively, and the others followed suit.
Just now Xie Junzhuo skillfully threatened Bai Ji, his fingertips were covered with killing intent, his face was gloomy and cold, as if he had changed into a different person.Originally, everyone wanted to take the words out of Bai Ji's mouth step by step, but she directly threatened with a knife, which made no sense at all.
Xie Junzhuo scratched her face, because it was related to Bai Lu, she would inevitably lose her composure, and now she was stared at with strange eyes by everyone, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Jiang Yuehan saw that she was uncomfortable, and relieved her, "What do you think about what Bai Ji said?"
When it came to business, everyone immediately corrected their emotions, and they were not entangled in Xie Junzhuo's threat to Bai Ji.
Wang Zhuo said: "Let's sort out the sequence first. Lao Lai found a coffin in his own land, and then the Seven Star Sect and Xie Cheng mainly left. They may have opened the coffin to get something from it, and then realized that the land is also the key point. Then I came to Lao Lai to ask for the land, but failed. Lao Lai gave the land to Bai Zhengyu who didn't know about it, and also threw the trouble to the Bai family."
Wang Zhuo paused when he said this, he thought for a while and said: "Before Xie Xiaoxian and the Bai family had a dispute over the land, there was one issue that we ignored at the beginning, that is, Bai Lu left the Seven Star Sect. Before we entered and retreated, we got There was news about Bai Lu, because her talent was very good, and the disciples of the Seven Star Sect showed it off to the outside world, but then there was no news about it, and the time was about the same as this incident."
Everyone's investigation revolves around Bai Lu. Bai Ji's words can be connected with the news they have investigated. After sorting out the cause and effect, it is not difficult to see that Bai Lu got involved a long time ago.
We don't know what was in the coffin, but it was not a good thing to make Bai Lu leave the Seven Star Sect and never go back. This also explains why Bai Lu firmly opposed giving up the land later.She wanted to fight against Qixingzong and Xie Xiaoxian with her own strength, but she lost.
"We still don't know what's in the coffin, and we don't know where it is. One problem has not been solved, and another new problem has come one after another. It's so troublesome. I feel like my head is getting bigger." He Piao complained distressedly. , feeling like my thoughts have turned into a mess.
They just came to deal with Earth Sha, but before seeing Earth Sha's shadow, they made a big circle around things that had nothing to do with Earth Sha.
Tian Meng didn't agree with He Piao's statement. Instead, he felt that the matter was very clear now: "The things in the coffin and the land are probably the key. City Lord Xie took action against the Bai family. I can’t say who is right and who is wrong, but it’s true that City Lord Xie didn’t tell us the truth, why did he hide it?”
"Of course it's because it would be bad for him to say it." Xie Junzhuo sneered and said, "The current situation is that City Lord Xie has the things in the coffin in his hands, and Sister Bai has the land in his hands. City Lord Xie wants to use us to get things. But I don’t want us to know the truth. If you think about it with your toes, you should know, it’s definitely not a good thing.”
Xie Junzhuo was a little annoyed that he didn't have enough information back then, which made the current situation passive.If she knew a little more, even if she knew why she wanted to fight for that piece of land, she would be able to get one more clue.
In her previous life, after Bai Lu passed away, there were rumors that she had a quarrel with her fellow disciples, and then turned evil and slaughtered the city. There was no mention of the coffin and the ground.Later, Xie Junzhuo Tucheng only cared about venting the resentment in his heart, and didn't ask what happened. Now that I think about it, I was really too impulsive back then.
But having said that, since these two things were silent in the previous life, does that mean that Bai Lu didn't let Xie Xiaoxian and the others succeed even though she was out of her wits?
What's wrong with these two things that made her so desperate?
"Brother Tian, you have always been well-read, do you have any thoughts about that coffin?" Wang Zhuo was still very concerned about the coffin, and turned to ask Tian Meng beside him.
Tian Meng has always liked reading, and there are many classics in Zangshuge in his mind. Since it can make Lin Mu ecstatic, it must be something unusual, maybe Tian Meng has an impression of it.
Tian Meng shook his head and said: "Bai Ji's words are too superficial. What they value is that the coffin is valuable, but it's not the key point. The key point is what's inside. There are different situations for such similar things, so I can't say well."
With too little information at hand, and without seeing it with his own eyes, Tian Meng didn't dare to speculate casually. After all, it was related to the safety of the people in this city.If he said the wrong thing and everyone looked in the wrong direction, it would be bad.
He Piao asked: "Then what should we do now?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Jiang Yuehan, waiting for her instructions.
Jiang Yuehan thought for a moment, but had no other thoughts for the time being, and said, "Go back to the City Lord's Mansion first, and we will keep everything about today a secret. If anyone asks, just say that you haven't found the formation, and don't need to say anything else."
Everyone came out under the banner of looking for a team, and naturally they should reply like this when they go back.If other people ask other questions, it is best to simply refuse.Under Jiang Yuehan's instruction, everyone quickly made up a set of rhetoric to make sure that they would not leak their words, and went back together together.
Jiang Yuehan and Xie Junzhuo walked behind, and Xie Junzhuo would continue to act as a guard, so it was inconvenient to be with them.But she was reluctant to leave her lovely master so soon, so she let everyone go first, and herself and Jiang Yuehan walked slowly behind.
Liaocheng, which is deeply trapped in everything, is beautiful, but it lacks a bit of agility. The people on the street are repeating their original lives. If Jiang Yuehan and the others don't get in touch with them, those people will not respond to them.
Xie Junzhuo couldn't remember what the Hundred Flowers Festival in Liaocheng was like. The hatred had been in her heart for so long that she forgot all the good things.
Walking on the street with Jiang Yuehan, everything around her becomes a foil, only the two of them are enough in the world.
Xie Junzhuo held Jiang Yuehan's hand. She stood with Jiang Yuehan in this appearance, she looked a bit grown-up.Jiang Yuehan didn't break free, the two of them got close, their hands covered by their sleeves.
"After I left Sanqingzong, I would collect food from that place every time I went. I thought that I would make it for Master to taste when I met Master. I collected a lot without knowing it, but I didn't expect to meet in such a situation. "
After the reunion, Jiang Yuehan didn't take the initiative to ask Xie Junzhuo about the days after she left, so Xie Junzhuo had to tell her by himself.She skipped the matter of Wanminyuan and talked about the knowledge she had gained during this period of time.Starting from Sanqingzong, she came all the way to Liaocheng, and went to many places she had seen but never visited in her previous life, and solved difficulties for others.
I don't know if she has been fighting without stopping, but her spiritual power has grown very fast, and she can use many spells from her previous life.Wanminyuan has also collected a lot of names, but it is far from what Huikong said.For Wanminyuan, who has no end in sight, her achievements in the past six months are not as good as an ant.
But Xie Junzhuo is very happy. She originally bears the fate of causing disaster to the world, but she is using both hands to save others and fight against her own fate.She has pursuit and hope, thinking that one day she can return to Jiang Yuehan's side so that she doesn't have to worry about herself.
Bailu is Xie Junzhuo's beacon, Jiang Yuehan is Xie Junzhuo's unattainable pursuit, they are irreplaceable people in her life.
Jiang Yuehan listened to Xie Junzhuo talking about those things, and was happy for her.There is nothing wrong with her being the Demon Lord in the previous life, but she is trying to live a new life that belongs to Xie Junzhuo in this life.She wasn't crazy, she wasn't bloodthirsty, and although she occasionally threatened others with murderous intent, she was able to restrain her own murderous intentions and would not actually strike.
This kind of life should be what she wanted but could not get in her previous life. Bai Lu is really important to her. If she can't save Bai Lu again, she will probably be even more devastated than in her previous life.What's more, compared to her previous life, now she has more hooks and a heavy burden on her hands.
Jiang Yuehan's face was slightly cold. She remembered what she had asked Yuqing before, and her heart was heavy.Xie Junzhuo came here full of confidence, but he didn't know the cruel reality.
"Jun Zhuo, if... I mean, if Bai Lu's grievances are cleared away, but she can't survive, what will you do?" Jiang Yuehan held Xie Junzhuo's hand tightly, suppressing the anxiety in her heart, and looked at her worriedly.
The smile on Xie Junzhuo's lips froze, she stopped and stood there for a while, with a look of sadness appearing on her face.
Jiang Yuehan's heart tightened, and he felt uncomfortable for a while.
Xie Junzhuo sighed heavily, and said bitterly: "Master, don't worry, I'm mentally prepared."
One sentence is mentally prepared, and the sourness and pain in my heart can't be explained.
Of course Xie Junzhuo hoped that Bai Lu would be well, and it would be great if she could survive.But after all, she is not a child, nor is she a Demon Lord who could act recklessly in her previous life. She learned to grow when she was alone, and also learned to accept the worst results.
Bai Lu didn't transform her evil spirit out of impulsiveness, she was already mentally prepared before transforming her evil spirit.She knew very well that she would die if she did this, but she still made the choice without hesitation.Because she knew that there were more important things to do than her own life and death.
Xie Junzhuo is proud of having such a sister. In this life, she will never do anything that would damage her sister's face. Even if she dies, she must die well.
Jiang Yuehan hugged Xie Junzhuo, no matter whether it was Xie Junzhuo or Bai Lu, she couldn't bear it.Perhaps it was too early for her to give up lightly. There must be other ways to cultivate the Tao.
Wang Zhuo and the others walked in front without disturbing the two masters and apprentices, but the City Lord's Mansion was getting closer and they couldn't move forward, so they simply stopped and waited.
Xie Junzhuo and Jiang Yuehan saw them standing in the market from afar, and Tian Meng chatted up with the stall owner next to him to learn about the people's livelihood in Liaocheng.Xie Junzhuo reluctantly let go of Jiang Yuehan's hand, left the little paper man on his body to Jiang Yuehan, and entered the City Lord's Mansion from another entrance.
That little paper figurine was the one who went to find He Piao and fell into the ban. Because Jiang Yuehan asked him to keep it, Xie Junzhuo never threw it away, and used spiritual power to make offerings from time to time. Now it looks no different from other paper figurines. Not weak spiritual power.
As if sensing Jiang Yuehan's breath, the little paper figurine hugged her wrist happily, and fell asleep on it.
Jiang Yuehan found it interesting, and a little smile appeared in her eyes. She hid the little paper figurine under her sleeve, and brought it to meet Wang Zhuo and the others.
The atmosphere outside the City Lord's Mansion was as bad as ever. Everyone complained in a low voice. Jiang Yuehan glanced at them, and they immediately restrained their emotions, and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion with sad faces one by one.
It was Uncle Zhong who came to open the door. Jiang Yuehan was about to thank him, but Uncle Zhong suddenly changed his expression, grabbed a disciple and said, "You guys are back, something big happened. After you left, Hall Master Zou and Elder Qi went out together During the inspection, unexpectedly they were poisoned, the two of them were seriously injured, Hall Master Zou is now unconscious."
The person caught by Uncle Zhong happened to be Wang Zhuo. When he heard that Zou Buwen was injured, his heart was empty, as if a piece had been dug out by someone, his complexion paled instantly, and he left everyone and ran to see Zou Buwen.
This sudden news made everyone's face a bit ugly, He Piao looked anxious, and she pulled Jiang Yuehan very worried.
Jiang Yuehan patted her head to calm her emotions, and asked Uncle Zhong to lead them the way.
Uncle Zhong responded and led everyone
The land in the hands of the Bai family was not originally theirs, but Bai Zhengyu won money in the casino, and others had no money to give him, so they lost the land to him.
It's also a coincidence that this happened, according to the news from Wang Zhuo and the others, Bai Zhengyu has no fortune, and he never wins when he enters the casino.It happened that day was such a coincidence that he met someone who had more ideas than him, and the other party was also an old man who had no money to gamble. Normally, he turned his face and refused to admit it, but that day he unexpectedly cooperated and gave him what he said.
Bai Zhengyu was naturally happy when he won the money. He was afraid that the other party would go back on his word, so he called the elders in the clan to ask for a change in the land deed that day, and the other party readily agreed. The matter was completed in less than half a day, and the speed was astounding.
Bai Lu's mother felt a little uneasy, but Bai Zhengyu was happy and was still planning how to use the land. Bai Lu's mother didn't want to spoil his interest, so she didn't say anything, just told Bai Lu about it.
At that time, Bai Lu happened to be returning home from the Seven Star Sect. She was planning to go on a long trip, but she didn't go because of the delay.
Not long after that, Xie Xiaoxian got involved in it. It turned out that Xie Xiaoxian also liked the land and wanted to buy it from Lao Lai.But Lao Lai was unhappy with him, and he lost the money, so he gave the land to Bai Zhengyu.
The Bai family and the Xie family are related by marriage, and Bai Lu is a disciple of the Seven Star Sect. No matter how you look at it, Bai Zhengyu is suitable to take over this land.
Knowing that the land was in Bai Zhengyu's hands, Xie Xiaoxian was a little annoyed, but he was a person who could bear it all the time, and there was nothing wrong on the surface, and he just sent someone to discuss with Bai Zhengyu.
After Bai Zhengyu's excitement passed, he didn't care so much about the land. If someone else wanted it, he would happily sell it again, and he could still earn free money.
But it happened to be Xie Xiaoxian, because of Bai Xianxian's death, the in-law relationship between Xie Bai's family had long existed in name only, and Bai Zhengyu directly rejected Xie Xiaoxian.He said that he would not give Xie Xiaoxian half a cent even if he let the land fall into wasteland and long grass.
Bai Zhengyu's words completely annoyed Xie Xiaoxian, and the Xie family never came again.Since then, that piece of land has suddenly become a hot commodity, and many people have come to inquire and want to buy it.
Bai Zhengyu is not a fool, he also realized that something was wrong.He went to see that piece of land, it was backed by mountains and rivers, but the terrain was a bit low, and the mountains were too high and it was shaded. Other than that, there were no shortcomings, but it didn't look like a geomantic treasure.Suddenly becoming so popular, it must be Xie Xiaoxian's entrustment.
Bai Zhengyu felt that Xie Xiaoxian was looking down on others, so he simply closed the door to thank the guests without seeing anyone.After a month or two like this, the matter gradually subsided, and just when everyone was about to forget it, people from the Seven Star Sect suddenly came to visit, and their purpose was also for that piece of land.
But the difference was that it was not Bai Zhengyu who received them this time, but Bai Lu who never went back after returning from Seven Star Sect.The Seven Star School used both soft and hard methods, intimidating and luring, but Bai Lu remained indifferent, and finally invited them out politely.
Not only Xie Xiaoxian wanted a piece of land, but the Seven Star Sect also wanted it. Bai Zhengyu wondered if it was really a treasured land of geomantic omen, and began to wonder whether he should build a house and let his family move in.
It's a pity that before his plan was implemented, Bai Lu told him to give up that idea, and solemnly warned him not to touch that piece of land, just let it sit there.
Although Bai Lu was gentle, she was also a one-sided character. Bai Zhengyu listened to her and handed over the matter to her.
Afterwards, Liaocheng seemed to calm down, and no one mentioned the matter of the land, but in fact it was undercurrents.It's just that the Bai family has Bai Lu in charge, so they can barely maintain stability.
"You all know what happened after that. The Bai family didn't take out that piece of land, and they had a stalemate with Xie Xiaoxian for almost a year, until Bai Zhengyu killed someone and Bailu became evil. I think that piece of land should still be in Bailu's hands , she would rather die than hand it over."
Tian Meng felt a little heavy after talking about the results of their investigation.He didn't know what kind of land it was that could be more precious than human life.In the beginning, Bai Zhengyu did not give the land because he was dissatisfied with Xie Xiaoxian, but later the development of the situation exceeded expectations, and it gradually became impossible to give.
But why not give, no one knows.
The memories of the people in Liaocheng were dusty before the death of the Bai family. At this time, they didn't know what would happen next, so Tian Meng and the others could only rely on guesswork for some news.
Tian Meng looked at Xie Junzhuo who said nothing, hesitated for a moment and said: "I suspect that someone in the Bai family's murder was manipulated behind the scenes, deliberately planted and framed."
"Brother Tian, you don't have to be so euphemistic." Xie Junzhuo took Tian Meng's words and said with a sneer: "You can just say that it was Xie Xiaoxian's poisonous hands."
"Er..." Tian Meng rubbed his nose and said in embarrassment, "He is your father after all..."
"Don't dare, I don't think I'm worthy, so you don't have to worry about me. I didn't come back here to act like a loving father and a filial son with him. I'm here to collect debts." Xie Junzhuo leaned closer to Jiang Yuehan's side , with a cool smile on his face.
From her previous life to this life, she, Xie Junzhuo, did not come back to this life to be a dutiful son for Xie Xiaoxian.In Xie Junzhuo's heart, his father had already died [-] times.
Tian Meng sighed, every family has scriptures that are hard to recite, he doesn't know what Xie Junzhuo has gone through in the past to be able to come to this stage with Xie Xiaoxian.He was worried that Xie Junzhuo would soften his heart on this matter before, but now it seems that he really worried too much.Perhaps he should consider whether Xie Junzhuo will be too ruthless in this matter.
Jiang Yuehan could hear the deep meaning in Xie Junzhuo's words, this family relationship has been cut off completely for two lifetimes.She was heartbroken in her previous life, so she has no expectations in this life.Jiang Yuehan really loves her, even if he knows that she is the Demon Lord from his previous life, he will still soften his heart when facing her face.
To comfort her, Jiang Yuehan shook her hand under the table.
Xie Junzhuo was taken aback for a moment, then grabbed Jiang Yuehan's hand that was about to be pulled away, and held it firmly in the palm of his hand.There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of her mouth, and she felt that the master beside her was really cute.
Jiang Yuehan tried to pull away her hand, but Xie Junzhuo held it tightly, and she was a little helpless.There are still disciples discussing matters in front of her, so she can't struggle a lot and let Xie Junzhuo hold it.
No one noticed the movement under the table, Jiang Yuehan's face was indifferent, and he said calmly: "Since you asked about the land, have you found the old man who gave the land to Bai Zhengyu?"
Tian Meng's face was gloomy, and Wang Zhuo took over the topic: "The person Bai Zhengyu killed is Lao Lai."
Jiang Yuehan was startled, and Xie Junzhuo immediately frowned. At first, she was only thinking about Bai Lu, but she didn't notice who Bai Zhengyu killed.
Lao Lai transferred the land to Bai Zhengyu because Xie Xiaoxian wanted the land. He knew there was a problem with the land before he wrote the land deed.He must know why Xie Xiaoxian wanted that piece of land, but unfortunately he never had the chance to tell.Xie Xiaoxian became murderous, and used Bai Zhengyu's hand to finish him off, that is, the perfect killing and silence, and also made Bai Zhengyu a scapegoat, killing two birds with one stone.
In terms of scheming, Xie Xiaoxian really played it really well.He not only removed himself from this matter, but also established an image of being impartial and selfless. At that time, he must have felt that what he wanted would be immediately available, but he did not expect that Bai Lu, who was driven to a corner by him, would directly melt away and beat him. He was caught off guard.
"Lao Lai is dead, isn't this clue broken?" He Piao held his face and leaned on the table a little discouraged. They worked hard all morning and finally found the clue, but it just disappeared.
Everyone's mood became depressed because of He Piao's words. The key to solving the problem was clearly in front of them, but they couldn't find a way.
With a bitter face, Tian Meng pretended to be relaxed and said, "Now we can only hope that the sky will drop a pie, let us pick up a ready-made one. Otherwise, we will have to investigate Xie Xiaoxian or ask Bai Lu to understand."
"Brother Tian, you really know how to joke. There is no such good thing in the world." He Piao held his face in worry, disapproving of Tian Meng's words.If it was possible for the pie to fall from the sky, then they wouldn't be able to run all morning.
Originally, I had counted on Xie Junzhuo, but judging by her appearance, she didn't know much more than everyone else.The situation reached a deadlock, and no one spoke for a while.As soon as their conversation stopped, the voices of others in the inn became clear.
The waiter in the shop talked to himself enthusiastically, boasting to the air how beautiful the flower fairy in Liaocheng is, and goose bumps fell all over the person who laughed.The same is true for others, either excited or passionate.
He Piao rubbed his arms, feeling a chill in his heart, no matter how you looked at this scene, it looked weird.
Jiang Yuehan's gaze swept across the lobby, and his eyes fell on a table not far away. There was a drunk young man over there. There were good wine and food on other tables, but he had a stack of empty plates in front of him. , only full of wine.
Jiang Yuehan took Xie Junzhuo's hand, motioned her to look at the young man and said, "Do you know that person?"
Xie Junzhuo followed Jiang Yuehan's gaze. The young man held the wine jar in one hand, stepped on the bench, and cursed at the air next to him.He was quite drunk and his hair was in a mess. Xie Junzhuo looked at it for a long time before he managed to recall him from his memory.
"He seems to be a descendant of a collateral line of the Bai family. He is the cousin of Sister Bai. I remember his name is Bai Ji. Master, what did you find out?" Xie Junzhuo couldn't see anything unusual about him, and he was no different from the others in the lobby. the difference.
Jiang Yuehan pursed his lips and said, "It's a bit strange. You see, in this inn, no one's table is full of empty plates, and someone's table is full of wine and vegetables, but in front of him are wine and empty plates. Look at his appearance. Talking to other people, and the atmosphere is not harmonious. He doesn't look like someone who came in for a drink, but he seems to come from somewhere else when he was drunk, and he just dragged someone to talk."
Jiang Yuehan's words attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at that person and listened intently to his conversation.
"Smelly girl, isn't it just a piece of land? Who is it not for sale? I can't afford it... because of his house, I paid money to buy it. Isn't it just a piece of broken land? If not, if the coffin was not dug up, He thought Lao Lai would give it to him? Unexpectedly, he kicked me out, I, I bah..."
"I bother!"
Bai Ji cursed, took a big gulp of wine, stared angrily, and said to the air in front of him, "Do you not believe me? What I said is true. The coffin, hiccup, the coffin is gone."
Bai Ji was crying and laughing, cuddling with alcohol, saying it was gone, and then swearing again.
The disciples of the Sanqing Sect looked at each other, Tian Meng straightened his body, and said, "I never thought that pies would fall from the sky."
Everyone turned to look at him, He Piao said: "You are a blind cat meeting a dead mouse."
Xie Junzhuo chuckled and shook her head. Looking at the drunk Bai Ji, she felt that it was not accidental that he appeared here.Everything in everything is under Bai Lu's control, maybe she wants to tell them something through Bai Ji's mouth.
Wang Zhuo stopped the bickering between his junior sister and Tian Meng, got up and said, "Master, do you need me to bring him here?"
Jiang Yuehan nodded, she was a little concerned about what Bai Ji said, and she finally found someone who knew, so she couldn't let it go easily.
Wang Zhuo walked over, he leaned over and said something to Bai Ji, Bai Ji listened for a long while, smiled, stood up from the stool, leaned in front of Wang Zhuo, pointed at his nose and said, "Do you want to talk to me?" If you ask for information, then give money. Money can turn ghosts around, do you know the rules?"
Bai Ji smelled of alcohol, Wang Zhuo held his breath and didn't retreat hastily.He spread out his hand, there was a certain amount of gold in his palm, he waved the gold in front of Bai Ji, and said, "Follow me, this is yours."
Bai Ji looked at Jin Zi, hehe giggled, his eyes were full of covetousness.When Wang Zhuo put the gold into his wine jar, there was a soft plop, and Bai Ji was even more delighted from ear to ear.
No one has trouble with money, and things that can be solved with money are trivial.
Bai Ji followed Wang Zhuo to Xie Junzhuo's table, and Xie Junzhuo leaned in, not wanting to get too close to Bai Ji.
Tian Meng gave up a stool to Bai Ji, who stood beside Wang Zhuo.Bai Ji looked at the group of people with extraordinary backgrounds in front of him, his brain was too drunk to react, he just thought they were foreigners who wanted to hear gossip.He held the wine jar in his arms, and stared at Jiang Yuehan and He Piao lewdly.
Xie Junzhuo glared at him displeasedly, wishing to gouge out his eyeballs, and snorted coldly: "Boy, did you just say that the coffin was dug out of the ground because you were too drunk to brag?"
No matter how you say it, Bai Ji is also Bai Lu's cousin, older than Xie Junzhuo, so Xie Junzhuo should also call him brother.But Xie Junzhuo didn't put him in his eyes, and the boy said it very disdainfully.
Lust|The lustful Bai Ji woke up suddenly, his eyes were blurred and he didn't see who the person in front of him was, so he patted the table and said, "Why do you say I'm bragging? I saw it with my own eyes."
"What did you see? Someone else dug out the coffin, so would you be invited to take a look?" Xie Junzhuo sneered, making it clear that he didn't believe Bai Ji's words, and deliberately provoked him.
Bai Ji couldn't bear the excitement, Xie Junzhuo showed disbelief the more he wanted to prove it, he said anxiously: "I saw the Seven Star Sect took that coffin away, and Xie Xiaoxian was also there, they went together."
As soon as Bai Ji finished speaking, everyone started to get serious.
Xie Junzhuo didn't continue to provoke Bai Ji, her face was extremely ugly.At first glance, this matter is just a piece of land, but the more everyone goes deeper, the more problems are involved.Now they can be sure that before Bai Zhengyu got the land, Lao Lai knew that the land was a trouble and was eager to get rid of it.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Bai Ji thought they were all under his control, and said triumphantly: "This is the news I got from Lao Lai with several jars of old wine. I originally planned to buy the land from Bai Lu and give it to Xie Xiaoxian , If he is happy, do I want anything? But that stinky girl doesn't know how to flatter her, because she offended Xie Xiaoxian with a piece of land, can their family live better? Qixingzong and Xie's family are the same, Qixingzong won't protect her at all."
Bai Ji belched, exhaled an unpleasant smell of alcohol, and cursed: "Women have long hair but short knowledge, and they don't know how to cherish the opportunity to make a fortune in front of them. If they guard a piece of unlucky land, they will be in bad luck sooner or later." Hiccup, it's best if the whole family dies..."
"Shut up!" Bai Ji's words touched Xie Junzhuo's sensitive nerves. She slapped the table and got up, grabbed Bai Ji's neck, and lifted him from the stool.
Bai Ji's memory stays before the accident in the Bai family, so how does he know that his words will be fulfilled soon after.Xie Junzhuo was stepped on and hurt his feet, he was furious, his eyes were fierce, murderous intent must be revealed in his eyes.Bai Lu was a thorn in her heart, whoever touched it recklessly would naturally have to pay the price.
The killing intent was like a glow on his back, and Bai Ji's alcohol was awakened a lot by fright.He looked at the furious Xie Junzhuo, and soon became timid, sweating profusely.
Xie Junzhuo took a deep breath, threw him back on the stool, and said, "Tell me everything you know, and if you hide something, I'll make you less fat."
Xie Junzhuo flicked out a fingertip blade, and gesticulated on Bai Ji's body threateningly.The cold light of the blade flickered, matched with Xie Junzhuo's murderous face, making the hair stand on end and the scalp numb.Bai Ji's alcoholism was completely frightened, and he didn't dare to show off any more, so he told what he knew in every detail.
Lao Lai is a bachelor, and he is the only one in the family. He can live until now thanks to the blessing of his ancestors, who have left a lot of fertile land.But he either sells the fields for money to gamble, or throws away the grass.After finally planting some crops, there are only a few sparse ones. Without fertilization or weeding, it is God's curtain to survive until the harvest.
For a person like Lao Lai who has no special skills, no matter how rich his ancestral wealth is, he can squander it.The land where the accident occurred was the last piece of fertile land in his hands, and the others were all in corners, so it was not easy to sell or grow crops.
Lao Lai also knew that it would be impossible to continue like this, so he finally cheered up and prepared to loosen the ground and plant crops honestly.But he got used to being lazy, and worked slowly, until the third day he dug out half of the tree roots.There are no trees in his field, and the roots of that knot are strange, and they extend all the way underground.
Lao Lai is not good at farming, but he has enough energy in other areas.He felt strange at the time, so he kept digging down the tree roots, and finally dug out a coffin.
It was a high-quality golden nanmu coffin, with patterns painted on it with gold powder. After sweeping off the dirt on it, it was as precious as a new one.There is also a small opening on the top of the coffin, and the tree roots grow out of it.
Lao Lai tried to open the coffin, but he tried all kinds of methods and failed to open the coffin. There was not even a scratch on the coffin.Lao Lai was also bold. He felt that there must be something good in the coffin. He didn't take any action that day but covered it with soil, and waited until night to quietly drive the ox cart to pull the coffin back.
After getting the coffin, Lao Lai dreamed of getting rich while feeling uneasy.The coffin was very strange, even if it was burned by fire, the roots of the tree were constantly growing, as if there was a tree inside.
Lao Lai tried to pull out the root of the tree to see what was inside through the hole exposed by the root, but the strange thing was that once he grabbed the root and pulled it out, the root would become transparent and he couldn't grasp it.
The uneasiness in Lao Lai's heart grew bigger and bigger, and finally he overcame his greed for money. He was about to bury the coffin back, but he was cut off by Qi Xingzong and Xie Xiaoxian.They didn't know where they knew he had a coffin, so they came to him directly.
Lin Mu was an upright gentleman, saying that the thing was an evil thing and should be destroyed as soon as possible, and he was willing to buy it from Lao Lai.
Lao Lai was agitated at the time, and asked them to take the coffin away after asking for a large sum of money.Before Lin Mu left, he told him not to tell others about this, otherwise he would be killed.
Of course Lao Lai knew, and he promised that he would keep the secret. Not long after, people from the Seven Star Sect came again, and they asked him where he got that thing from.At that time, Lao Lai had almost spent the money in his hand, so he wanted to use this matter to swindle another sum, so he refused to talk about it.
Originally, the Qixing sect sent Lao Lai's relatives with the same surname to do things cheaply, and the purpose was to let them understand with reason and move them with affection. Unexpectedly, this group of people usually dislike Lao Lai, but this time they took the opportunity to beat him up. After a pause, he hastily returned to the sect.
Lin Mo knew that they had screwed up and was furious, so he hurriedly went to Xie Xiaoxian to discuss it, but Lao Lai was one step ahead of them and directly gave the land to Bai Zhengyu.Afterwards, this troublesome matter fell into the hands of the Bai family, Lao Lai pushed it clean, and even kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about the coffin. After Xie Xiaoxian troubled him once, it was over.
Bai Ji happened to be passing by on the day he saw them taking the coffin, but he didn't think much about it. Afterwards, there was a storm in the field, and he thought about it, and got a wrong idea, and got the words out of Lao Lai's mouth.Bai Ji is usually an idler, and this great opportunity is in front of him, so he went directly to Bai Lu.
In the end, of course, he didn't please her, and was ridiculed by Bai Lu, holding a grudge, and spent a long period of time drinking away his worries.
After Bai Ji finished talking about what he knew, he looked at Xie Junzhuo in fear, fearing that Xie Junzhuo would be unhappy and turn him into a eunuch with a knife in his hand.
"Did you ask Lao Lai what's in that coffin?" Xie Junzhuo played with the fingertip blade in his hand, staring at Bai Ji.
Bai Ji shook his head quickly, and said tremblingly: "I asked, but Lao Lai didn't know. He said that the coffin was very strange. But there was one thing that was very strange. He said that Lin Mu was a little abnormal when he saw the coffin. His face was solemn, and he was elated after a while, crying and laughing, as if he was crazy."
As a master of one side, Lin Mu is usually steady and dignified, and rarely loses his composure like this.In Lao Lai's words, he was almost bewitched.
Of course, Lin Mu would not be possessed by evil spirits. He might be overjoyed because he recognized the contents of the coffin.
Bai Ji looked at Xie Junzhuo timidly, and said, "That's all I know, can I go?"
Xie Junzhuo put away the fingertip blade, stared at him with a sneer and said, "If you want to survive, some words are better left in your stomach."
Bai Ji nodded desperately, only to throw himself to the ground and swear to the sky.Only then did Xie Junzhuo wave his hand, and said like alms: "Go away."
As if he had been pardoned, Bai Ji picked up the wine jar and rushed out the door like a wild beast behind him.
Xie Junzhuo looked at his back and whispered, "Am I that scary?"
"I think the word "?" can be removed, because you were really scary just now, Junior Sister." As soon as Xie Junzhuo's voice fell, Tian Meng, who was around the table, responded cooperatively, and the others followed suit.
Just now Xie Junzhuo skillfully threatened Bai Ji, his fingertips were covered with killing intent, his face was gloomy and cold, as if he had changed into a different person.Originally, everyone wanted to take the words out of Bai Ji's mouth step by step, but she directly threatened with a knife, which made no sense at all.
Xie Junzhuo scratched her face, because it was related to Bai Lu, she would inevitably lose her composure, and now she was stared at with strange eyes by everyone, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Jiang Yuehan saw that she was uncomfortable, and relieved her, "What do you think about what Bai Ji said?"
When it came to business, everyone immediately corrected their emotions, and they were not entangled in Xie Junzhuo's threat to Bai Ji.
Wang Zhuo said: "Let's sort out the sequence first. Lao Lai found a coffin in his own land, and then the Seven Star Sect and Xie Cheng mainly left. They may have opened the coffin to get something from it, and then realized that the land is also the key point. Then I came to Lao Lai to ask for the land, but failed. Lao Lai gave the land to Bai Zhengyu who didn't know about it, and also threw the trouble to the Bai family."
Wang Zhuo paused when he said this, he thought for a while and said: "Before Xie Xiaoxian and the Bai family had a dispute over the land, there was one issue that we ignored at the beginning, that is, Bai Lu left the Seven Star Sect. Before we entered and retreated, we got There was news about Bai Lu, because her talent was very good, and the disciples of the Seven Star Sect showed it off to the outside world, but then there was no news about it, and the time was about the same as this incident."
Everyone's investigation revolves around Bai Lu. Bai Ji's words can be connected with the news they have investigated. After sorting out the cause and effect, it is not difficult to see that Bai Lu got involved a long time ago.
We don't know what was in the coffin, but it was not a good thing to make Bai Lu leave the Seven Star Sect and never go back. This also explains why Bai Lu firmly opposed giving up the land later.She wanted to fight against Qixingzong and Xie Xiaoxian with her own strength, but she lost.
"We still don't know what's in the coffin, and we don't know where it is. One problem has not been solved, and another new problem has come one after another. It's so troublesome. I feel like my head is getting bigger." He Piao complained distressedly. , feeling like my thoughts have turned into a mess.
They just came to deal with Earth Sha, but before seeing Earth Sha's shadow, they made a big circle around things that had nothing to do with Earth Sha.
Tian Meng didn't agree with He Piao's statement. Instead, he felt that the matter was very clear now: "The things in the coffin and the land are probably the key. City Lord Xie took action against the Bai family. I can’t say who is right and who is wrong, but it’s true that City Lord Xie didn’t tell us the truth, why did he hide it?”
"Of course it's because it would be bad for him to say it." Xie Junzhuo sneered and said, "The current situation is that City Lord Xie has the things in the coffin in his hands, and Sister Bai has the land in his hands. City Lord Xie wants to use us to get things. But I don’t want us to know the truth. If you think about it with your toes, you should know, it’s definitely not a good thing.”
Xie Junzhuo was a little annoyed that he didn't have enough information back then, which made the current situation passive.If she knew a little more, even if she knew why she wanted to fight for that piece of land, she would be able to get one more clue.
In her previous life, after Bai Lu passed away, there were rumors that she had a quarrel with her fellow disciples, and then turned evil and slaughtered the city. There was no mention of the coffin and the ground.Later, Xie Junzhuo Tucheng only cared about venting the resentment in his heart, and didn't ask what happened. Now that I think about it, I was really too impulsive back then.
But having said that, since these two things were silent in the previous life, does that mean that Bai Lu didn't let Xie Xiaoxian and the others succeed even though she was out of her wits?
What's wrong with these two things that made her so desperate?
"Brother Tian, you have always been well-read, do you have any thoughts about that coffin?" Wang Zhuo was still very concerned about the coffin, and turned to ask Tian Meng beside him.
Tian Meng has always liked reading, and there are many classics in Zangshuge in his mind. Since it can make Lin Mu ecstatic, it must be something unusual, maybe Tian Meng has an impression of it.
Tian Meng shook his head and said: "Bai Ji's words are too superficial. What they value is that the coffin is valuable, but it's not the key point. The key point is what's inside. There are different situations for such similar things, so I can't say well."
With too little information at hand, and without seeing it with his own eyes, Tian Meng didn't dare to speculate casually. After all, it was related to the safety of the people in this city.If he said the wrong thing and everyone looked in the wrong direction, it would be bad.
He Piao asked: "Then what should we do now?"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Jiang Yuehan, waiting for her instructions.
Jiang Yuehan thought for a moment, but had no other thoughts for the time being, and said, "Go back to the City Lord's Mansion first, and we will keep everything about today a secret. If anyone asks, just say that you haven't found the formation, and don't need to say anything else."
Everyone came out under the banner of looking for a team, and naturally they should reply like this when they go back.If other people ask other questions, it is best to simply refuse.Under Jiang Yuehan's instruction, everyone quickly made up a set of rhetoric to make sure that they would not leak their words, and went back together together.
Jiang Yuehan and Xie Junzhuo walked behind, and Xie Junzhuo would continue to act as a guard, so it was inconvenient to be with them.But she was reluctant to leave her lovely master so soon, so she let everyone go first, and herself and Jiang Yuehan walked slowly behind.
Liaocheng, which is deeply trapped in everything, is beautiful, but it lacks a bit of agility. The people on the street are repeating their original lives. If Jiang Yuehan and the others don't get in touch with them, those people will not respond to them.
Xie Junzhuo couldn't remember what the Hundred Flowers Festival in Liaocheng was like. The hatred had been in her heart for so long that she forgot all the good things.
Walking on the street with Jiang Yuehan, everything around her becomes a foil, only the two of them are enough in the world.
Xie Junzhuo held Jiang Yuehan's hand. She stood with Jiang Yuehan in this appearance, she looked a bit grown-up.Jiang Yuehan didn't break free, the two of them got close, their hands covered by their sleeves.
"After I left Sanqingzong, I would collect food from that place every time I went. I thought that I would make it for Master to taste when I met Master. I collected a lot without knowing it, but I didn't expect to meet in such a situation. "
After the reunion, Jiang Yuehan didn't take the initiative to ask Xie Junzhuo about the days after she left, so Xie Junzhuo had to tell her by himself.She skipped the matter of Wanminyuan and talked about the knowledge she had gained during this period of time.Starting from Sanqingzong, she came all the way to Liaocheng, and went to many places she had seen but never visited in her previous life, and solved difficulties for others.
I don't know if she has been fighting without stopping, but her spiritual power has grown very fast, and she can use many spells from her previous life.Wanminyuan has also collected a lot of names, but it is far from what Huikong said.For Wanminyuan, who has no end in sight, her achievements in the past six months are not as good as an ant.
But Xie Junzhuo is very happy. She originally bears the fate of causing disaster to the world, but she is using both hands to save others and fight against her own fate.She has pursuit and hope, thinking that one day she can return to Jiang Yuehan's side so that she doesn't have to worry about herself.
Bailu is Xie Junzhuo's beacon, Jiang Yuehan is Xie Junzhuo's unattainable pursuit, they are irreplaceable people in her life.
Jiang Yuehan listened to Xie Junzhuo talking about those things, and was happy for her.There is nothing wrong with her being the Demon Lord in the previous life, but she is trying to live a new life that belongs to Xie Junzhuo in this life.She wasn't crazy, she wasn't bloodthirsty, and although she occasionally threatened others with murderous intent, she was able to restrain her own murderous intentions and would not actually strike.
This kind of life should be what she wanted but could not get in her previous life. Bai Lu is really important to her. If she can't save Bai Lu again, she will probably be even more devastated than in her previous life.What's more, compared to her previous life, now she has more hooks and a heavy burden on her hands.
Jiang Yuehan's face was slightly cold. She remembered what she had asked Yuqing before, and her heart was heavy.Xie Junzhuo came here full of confidence, but he didn't know the cruel reality.
"Jun Zhuo, if... I mean, if Bai Lu's grievances are cleared away, but she can't survive, what will you do?" Jiang Yuehan held Xie Junzhuo's hand tightly, suppressing the anxiety in her heart, and looked at her worriedly.
The smile on Xie Junzhuo's lips froze, she stopped and stood there for a while, with a look of sadness appearing on her face.
Jiang Yuehan's heart tightened, and he felt uncomfortable for a while.
Xie Junzhuo sighed heavily, and said bitterly: "Master, don't worry, I'm mentally prepared."
One sentence is mentally prepared, and the sourness and pain in my heart can't be explained.
Of course Xie Junzhuo hoped that Bai Lu would be well, and it would be great if she could survive.But after all, she is not a child, nor is she a Demon Lord who could act recklessly in her previous life. She learned to grow when she was alone, and also learned to accept the worst results.
Bai Lu didn't transform her evil spirit out of impulsiveness, she was already mentally prepared before transforming her evil spirit.She knew very well that she would die if she did this, but she still made the choice without hesitation.Because she knew that there were more important things to do than her own life and death.
Xie Junzhuo is proud of having such a sister. In this life, she will never do anything that would damage her sister's face. Even if she dies, she must die well.
Jiang Yuehan hugged Xie Junzhuo, no matter whether it was Xie Junzhuo or Bai Lu, she couldn't bear it.Perhaps it was too early for her to give up lightly. There must be other ways to cultivate the Tao.
Wang Zhuo and the others walked in front without disturbing the two masters and apprentices, but the City Lord's Mansion was getting closer and they couldn't move forward, so they simply stopped and waited.
Xie Junzhuo and Jiang Yuehan saw them standing in the market from afar, and Tian Meng chatted up with the stall owner next to him to learn about the people's livelihood in Liaocheng.Xie Junzhuo reluctantly let go of Jiang Yuehan's hand, left the little paper man on his body to Jiang Yuehan, and entered the City Lord's Mansion from another entrance.
That little paper figurine was the one who went to find He Piao and fell into the ban. Because Jiang Yuehan asked him to keep it, Xie Junzhuo never threw it away, and used spiritual power to make offerings from time to time. Now it looks no different from other paper figurines. Not weak spiritual power.
As if sensing Jiang Yuehan's breath, the little paper figurine hugged her wrist happily, and fell asleep on it.
Jiang Yuehan found it interesting, and a little smile appeared in her eyes. She hid the little paper figurine under her sleeve, and brought it to meet Wang Zhuo and the others.
The atmosphere outside the City Lord's Mansion was as bad as ever. Everyone complained in a low voice. Jiang Yuehan glanced at them, and they immediately restrained their emotions, and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion with sad faces one by one.
It was Uncle Zhong who came to open the door. Jiang Yuehan was about to thank him, but Uncle Zhong suddenly changed his expression, grabbed a disciple and said, "You guys are back, something big happened. After you left, Hall Master Zou and Elder Qi went out together During the inspection, unexpectedly they were poisoned, the two of them were seriously injured, Hall Master Zou is now unconscious."
The person caught by Uncle Zhong happened to be Wang Zhuo. When he heard that Zou Buwen was injured, his heart was empty, as if a piece had been dug out by someone, his complexion paled instantly, and he left everyone and ran to see Zou Buwen.
This sudden news made everyone's face a bit ugly, He Piao looked anxious, and she pulled Jiang Yuehan very worried.
Jiang Yuehan patted her head to calm her emotions, and asked Uncle Zhong to lead them the way.
Uncle Zhong responded and led everyone
