Strange Records of Xijing

Su Yan, Pei Jingxing and the national teacher hid in the forest, and from a distance they saw a cloud of black smoke roaring past the forest like an eagle.

Pei Jingxing couldn't help clenching his fists, and asked in a low voice, "What is that?"

"The big ghost has appeared, it's unknown." The national teacher frowned, "What exactly are they trying to do?"

Su Yan recalled the previous encounter in front of the Tiannv Temple, and had a very bad guess: "Could it be related to the Ghost Emperor?"

"Ghost Emperor?" The national teacher was shocked when he heard the words, "Is there any relationship between the Tiannv Temple and the Ghost Emperor?"

Su Yan briefly recounted their experience in Tiannv Temple at that time, and then expressed his guess: "According to the nearby Orion, this Tiannv Temple is really strange. I heard from Master that some people with high morals Ghosts can even build a temple or a Taoist temple with blinders, and use incense to absorb people's energy."

The national teacher has a different opinion: "The ghost emperor has an outstanding status in the ghost world. With his morality and deeds, I'm afraid he can't look down on the spirit of ordinary people."

Su Yan thought about it, and couldn't help lowering his head, thinking carefully about other possibilities.

At this time, Pei Jingxing, who had been paying attention to the movements around him, suddenly raised his hand and made a silent movement: "Shh, someone is here."

The three of them hid behind a tree, only to see many Habayashi soldiers walking out from the depths of the forest surrounded by the prince, each with panic that could not be dissipated on their faces.

"It's him." As an opponent and senior brother for decades, the national teacher is already very familiar with his senior brother. Even if he just glanced at him from a distance, he can quickly find him in the crowd.

The Yulin army left in a hurry, but the panic that the ghost emperor had instilled in their hearts had not yet dissipated, and everyone did not realize that there were three uninvited guests hiding not far from the forest.

The moment he saw Daoist Wan, the national teacher's eyes were a little more careful. He raised his eyebrows, looked at Su Yan and Pei Jingxing, and asked, "Go in and have a look?"

The forest is already a mess.

The place that was supposed to be the Tiannv Temple is now covered with scattered broken stones. Unfortunately, a few big trees around were hit by huge stones, cut off in the middle, and fell to the ground in pieces.There is also an obvious large pit on the ground, exuding a slight smell of scorched earth, which is obviously the result of the previous Heavenly Thunder Curse.There were a few slightly blackened bloodstains near where the three of them were standing. Pei Jingxing was the most experienced in this area, and he could see traces of dragging on the bloodstains at a glance—it should be that someone in the Yulin Army was injured, and his companion left behind when he was carried away. down.

"There is no more ghost energy here." With the convenience of Longan, Su Yan can clearly see the flow of breath here without the help of external force.

The national teacher found a broken corpse not far away, and called Su Yan and Pei Jingxing to go over.Su Yan's heart skipped a beat for no reason, and just as he was about to walk over, he noticed a trace of unnatural expression on Pei Jingxing's face beside him.

"What's the matter?" Su Yan followed Pei Jingxing's gaze, because Pei Jingxing's body was in the middle, he could only see half of the head of the goddess lying on the ground.

Pei Jingxing forced a smile: "It's nothing, I just think you Taoist priests are too scary, and you can attract thunder with just a single move. It seems that I will never make you angry in the future. If I accidentally make you angry, I have to hurry up apologize."

Su Yan naturally heard that Pei Jingxing was joking, so he pursed his lips and smiled: "I just know now? It's too late."

The national teacher over there was still urging, Pei Jingxing stopped joking with Su Yan: "Let's go, the national teacher seems to have found something."

Su Yan walked in front, but he didn't notice that Pei Jingxing, who was supposed to be walking behind him, took advantage of his turning around to take a few steps back and kicked the head of the celestial goddess on the ground.The head of the celestial maiden statue was severely injured by the thunder, and was hacked several times by several Habayashi soldiers with horizontal knives. It has already been split into several pieces. Now these pieces are simply put together to form a face. .Now Pei Jingxing doesn't need to use much force, they will fall apart naturally, and they will never be able to piece together again.

Of course, no one will ever find out that the female statue is [-]% similar to Su Yan.

Although the corpse lying in front of the national teacher was broken, there were only a few bloodstains on his head, and Pei Jingxing quickly recognized the identity of this person.

"Is this person Wan Daoist recommended by the prince?"

"That's right." Seeing the death of a formidable enemy who suddenly appeared, the national teacher didn't feel any relief in his heart, but became more and more heavy. "I didn't expect my senior brother's layout to be so deep."

After all, Pei Jingxing and Su Yan are not national teachers, and they have not been brothers with Taoist Wan for decades, and they are not as thorough as the national teacher in seeing Taoist Wan's behavior.After hearing the national teacher's exclamation, they both looked at the national teacher.

"Is this man a pawn of Daoist Wan?"

"That's right." The national teacher picked up the left arm of the corpse, turned it over to the other side, and showed Su Yan and Pei Jingxing the mark on the arm, "This is my senior brother's mark. He just put it on the puppet before. No one is spared."

Wan Taoshi is the one who abolished the prince, this is clear to all three people present, and now the three of them have the same question in their minds - what is Wan Taoshi's intention when he suddenly switched to the prince's command?

For a while, the forest was so quiet that only the sound of the three people's very thin breathing remained.

The three searched around again, but found nothing but a puddle of meat.

"The prince's sudden improvement may have something to do with my senior brother." Before the three of them left, the national teacher said frankly, "I will start with the prince and find a way to find out his purpose. Mr. Pei, fellow Daoist Su, if you have If you have any clues, please let me know. Although I have some quarrels with Daoyou Su’s master, my senior brother always believes that His Majesty snatched the position that should belong to the deposed prince. Even though the deposed prince has been dead for 30 years, the hatred in my senior brother’s heart has never ceased. It didn't subside, but it accumulated deeper and deeper. What I'm worried about is that my senior brother has lost his temper and wants to..."

Speaking of this, the national teacher stopped, raised his left hand and made a gesture on his neck.

Pei Jingxing was also aware of the potential threat of this matter, and nodded solemnly: "National Teacher, don't worry, if we have any clues, we will definitely tell you."

The national teacher forced a smile, but both Su Yan and Pei Jingxing could read his uneasiness and lack of confidence.

He still had a layer of worries in his heart, so he couldn't help repeatedly telling the two young men who cooperated with him: "Your Majesty loves His Highness the Crown Prince very much, and now His Highness the Crown Prince has become my brother's asylum, and it is no problem to run rampant in Xijing. Unless we have conclusive evidence, Otherwise, this matter must not be known to the fourth person."

Rao Su Yan, who has never been in a temple, also read the chilling meaning in the words of the national teacher.

"National teacher, don't worry."

The three made an agreement and quietly separated.

Back at the mansion, Uncle Fu had already ordered people to prepare meals.

It's just that Pei Jingxing and Su Yan accidentally discovered a corner of a huge conspiracy in the forest. They really have no appetite at the moment, so they simply asked the others to leave the yard, leaving the four servants to handle the entrance of the yard, and only the two of them Discuss secretly in the house.

Pei Jingxing poured two cups of tea, pushed one of them in front of Su Yan, and asked, "How do you plan to investigate?"

"Now he's at the prince's side, and we can't get in touch with him at all." Su Yan shook his head, but couldn't think of anything for a while.

When it comes to catching monsters, none of the ten Pei Jingxing is Su Yan's match; but when it comes to investigating cases, Pei Jingxing is much more experienced than Su Yan.

"There is a national teacher at the prince's side to investigate, so we don't have to worry about it," but on the way back to the mansion, Pei Jingxing already had a direction to investigate the case, "Our eyes should not be in the palace."

Su Yan blinked, and looked at Pei Jingxing curiously: "Where do you put that?"

"Outside the palace," Pei Jingxing raised his left index finger and middle finger, and knocked on the table with his backhand, "Start from the beginning."

Su Yan and Pei Jingxing were in the same mind, and soon understood: "You mean, start the investigation from the matter of Shangguan Yun?"

"That's right." Pei Jingxing couldn't help stretching out his hand to scratch the bridge of Su Yan's nose, and praised, "Our little Daoist Su is really smart."

Su Yan only felt itchy on the bridge of his nose, stretched out his hand to scratch it a few times, and then continued: "Thanks for reminding me."

"Thirty years ago, the abolished prince was defeated and committed suicide. His wife and children were buried with him by the order of the late emperor. As a capable person next to the abolished prince, Taoist Wan must have lived in hiding for a while." Pei Jingxing Analyzed carefully with Su Yan, "We were not even born at that time, so it was too difficult to track down Taoist Wan's experience."

"And Daoist Wan showed his whereabouts in the case of Shangguan Yun, and even showed up to fight against the national teacher."

That was also the first time that Su Yan and Pei Jingxing fought against a national teacher, and both of them almost died.Now that Su Yan thinks about it, he can't help feeling afraid for a while.

Pei Jingxing was keenly aware of the fluctuation in Su Yan's heart, so he stretched out his hand to stroke Su Yan's back and forth to comfort Su Yan.He continued to analyze: "According to Wan Daoshi's personality, it is impossible to help Shangguan Yun out of sympathy for the loss of his beloved wife. But if Wan Daoshi is doing it for money, after the case is known, His Majesty ordered a search of Shangguan Yun's family, but no one was found." There are records of large quantities of gold, silver and jewelry flowing. Moreover, the courtyard where Taoist Wan lived in Shangguan Yun’s mansion at that time was very simple, even shabby. Obviously, Taoist Wan helped Shangguan Yun not for gold and silver treasures.”

"So you want to use Shangguan Yun to build a relationship with the crown prince?" Su Yan suggested another possibility, "Shangguan's family is also a famous family in Xijing. Maybe Shangguan Yun introduced him to the crown prince because of his gratitude for the kindness of Taoist Wan?"

"The possibility is too small." Compared to Su Yan, Pei Jingxing understands the relationship between the major families in Xijing and their relationship with the royal family. family, but he has no friendship with the prince. As for those who are close to Shangguan Yun, even before the prince Wei went to the west, he did not have much contact with the prince. You must know that the emperor is in his prime, and at this time It is a big taboo for the king to contact the prince in private. Even if they intend to introduce him, His Majesty will never let them bring a stranger of unknown origin to meet the prince."

Now, Su Yanke was in a difficult situation: "Then why did Taoist Wan help Shangguan Yun?"

Pei Jingxing couldn't think of a convincing possibility for a while, but he had been a Jinwu guard for four years, so he naturally knew that instead of sitting at home and guessing wildly, it's better to go out and investigate more, maybe he can find out the details that they overlooked. So follow the vine to find out the truth.

Facing Su Yan's puzzled face, Pei Jingxing simply stretched out his hand to ruffle his black hair on purpose: "It's not an option for us to sit here and guess. It's too late today, go to bed early and recharge your batteries. Starting tomorrow, we will Starting with Shangguan Yun's case and digging deeper little by little, I don't believe I can't find out the truth."

While the two were talking, an unexpected visitor came to Taixuanguan.

The ghost emperor who turned into an ordinary person just glanced at it casually, and found many murderous intentions hidden in the Taixuan temple for ghosts.

It's just that this is really not worth mentioning to the ghost emperor who is the lord of all ghosts. He put on a kind smile, walked forward, and called to stop a little Taoist boy who was sweeping the floor at the door: "Xiao Daoist, may I ask Daoist Su Yan?" here?"
