Chapter 346 Investigation
Chapter 346 Investigation
After seeing off Hao Ruoyan, Zhou Shu thought silently.
While he retreated safely, Elder Xin and Hao Ruoyan endured a lot of torture for him. As a cultivator with clear grievances and grievances, Zhou Shu must take responsibility and cannot escape.
If Zhou Shu is selfish and doesn't care about anything, just leave with the best magic weapon, he will be at ease, but the result will never be good, not to mention that his heart is damaged, and there is a limit to repaying favors for others, then the sisters of the Hao family If he saw him being so selfish, he would probably say that the magic weapon was with him, and that would be death without burial.
Everything has a beginning and an end, follow the cause and effect, repay every kindness, repay every grievance, and have a peaceful heart, which is beneficial to cultivating immortals and attaining the Tao. You have to take responsibility for the things you cause yourself. Although you will encounter many difficulties and dangers, the road to cultivating immortals is full of hardships. As a cultivator, you should overcome obstacles and overcome all difficulties to find the way.
He will not regret the decision he made, but he has to think carefully about how to proceed.
At night, Zhou Shu went down the mountain calmly.
After the birth of the ultimate magic weapon and the appearance of the vision of heaven and earth, the defenses in Lingyu City have been strengthened a lot. The security formation in the city has been opened up several layers. There are three sect cultivators patrolling day and night, and even Nascent Soul Realm cultivators participated in the defense. Strict defense has not stopped until now. Under such circumstances, it is hard to imagine that those priests could leave the city without anyone noticing. If they are still alive, they must be in the city.
As long as he is still in the city, things will be much easier. Zhou Shu intends to start the investigation from the disabled man's hut in the East China Sea. He believes that Mr. Yi Xin's wisdom will not catch him without a fight, and he should be able to leave some clues. Even if there is no clue, going there will do a lot of good.
At this time, Zhou Shu was not wearing Liuxiazong's cassock, and his figure was much taller and stronger than before. There were three centipede-like scars crawling on his face, from the tip of his forehead to the corner of his mouth, from his left ear To the right ear, crisscross, ugly and fierce.
I'm afraid no one will recognize him.
Cultivators don't need to disguise themselves most of the time, and it's not too difficult for others not to recognize themselves. For example, Zhou Shu now, he didn't use any special Yirong Jue, but cleverly combined Mu Yin Jue and Mu Si Jue. The wood aura gathers and forms, converging into wood strands, forming lifelike scars on the face, and surrounding the whole body, making him taller.
These methods won't affect his actions, but they can make his spiritual consciousness inferior to him, and practitioners who don't know how to use wood Yin Jue can't see it at all.
Zhou Shu walked slowly on the street, unleashed his consciousness, and probed back and forth around the hut of the disabled in the East China Sea.
He was very cautious because there were three cultivators watching near the hut. Unexpectedly, they were all cultivators of the Red Leaf Sect, and Deng Yizhou was among them.
"Give me attention!"
"Here is the key point, never relax, keep an eye on everyone who wants to go in!"
Deng Yizhou scolded the cultivators beside him, his spiritual consciousness swept around.
His consciousness also landed on Zhou Shu, who was far away from the hut, but he only glanced at him before turning his head away in disgust. Such an ugly person, who didn't know where he came from, just stained his eyes.
Zhou Shu was wandering around in a pill shop, but his spiritual consciousness kept scanning the formations around the hut, looking for a way to get in.
Not long after, a smile appeared on his face.
"Earth and sand flow wind formation, quite a good warning formation, countless invisible sand particles are suspended in the wind flow, densely packed, as long as anyone touches one, the sand particles in the formation will gather together to wrap the cultivator, and at the same time send out Warning."
This kind of formation is not common, and the layout is troublesome, but Zhou Shu happened to have learned it, and Zhao Yueru, who can be called the master of the formation, taught him. Reversely create wind currents to divert sand grains away, so that they can be undetected when they enter.
Zhou Shu looked for a gap, and when several divine senses slid past him, his figure suddenly moved.
The split shadow escape method was used, and the speed suddenly increased to the extreme. When no one noticed, Zhou Shu had already passed through the formation and fell directly into the hut.
Although the Parting Shadow Escape Jue is a method of evil cultivation, until now, Zhou Shu has not found a substitute, it is really suitable for him. The formula does not have to be good, but it must be suitable.
After entering the hut, Zhou Shu didn't stop, and quickly clung to the wall, using the wooden escape technique, almost blending into the hut. Then, he looked around.
The familiar hut seemed to still have the breath of an old man, and the things inside were very neat, as if there was no difference from before. Zhou Shu's consciousness was divided into thousands of strands, and he searched carefully.
"There is no trace of hands-on action here. Obviously, the enemy is much stronger than Lao Xin. He must be a cultivator at the Jindan stage. Except for the three swords, it seems that there is nothing missing... No, where is the reclining chair?"
Mr. Xin has always been sitting on the reclining chair, which Zhou Shu knows very well, but the old reclining chair is no longer visible here.
"Could it be destroyed?"
Zhou Shu frowned, and soon found the answer.
It was really destroyed, and there were some powdery sawdust left on the ground, which seemed to be crushed by a strong force.
Zhou Shu seemed to see such a picture, Mr. Xin was sitting on the reclining chair to rest his mind, when the enemy suddenly came in, he shot without saying a few words, the huge pressure of Jindan Realm pressed towards Mr. Xin, and directly subdued him , and the reclining chair was also crushed into powder, and then Lao Xin was restrained. The enemy rummaged inside, but did not find the best magic weapon, so they took Lao Xin away.
"No, let's look again."
After guessing what happened, Zhou Shu still didn't give up, and his actions became more and more meticulous.
No matter how hard he worked, Zhou Shu found a small hole in the corner of the wall. The hole was no bigger than chopsticks, and the hole seemed to be newly opened.
The spiritual power penetrated several feet deep, Zhou Shu hesitated slightly, and gently took out a thin bamboo stick from the hole.
The bamboo stick is old in color, it was left from that reclining chair, most likely because Mr. Xin knew something was wrong, he left a bamboo stick on the reclining chair and threw it into the wall as a warning.
"Dianyu Mountain and..."
There are four characters written on the bamboo stick, the handwriting is exactly the same as the inscription on the startling salamander sword, obviously written by Mr. Xin.
Zhou Shu immediately understood, as he and Hao Ruoyan had guessed, it was indeed Dian Yushan and Luo Ming who took away Mr. Xin.
"Just make sure."
Zhou Shu put away the bamboo sticks, thought for a while, opened the cave, and went down.
When the cave was opened, the aura kept gushing out from the entrance, as if some mechanism had been activated, but Zhou Shu didn't seem to notice it at all, with a look of indifference.
But when it landed, he quietly took out something and threw it to the corner.
The refining room in the cave is the same as in the past, there is no difference, only the sea-stepping seven-section sword is gone, presumably it was taken away by Dian Yushan and the others.
Just as he was about to continue the investigation, a loud shout came from above his head, "Who dares to come here!"
Following the shouts, three cultivators descended and surrounded Zhou Shu tightly in a triangle shape.
