Chapter 636 Burial Ground at Genshan Mountain
Hwa Lang-jun died naturally, without any signs of human intervention.
He was arrested and taken to the Daoting Division, tortured, and thrown into Daoyu after interrogation.
It was as if he had never existed since then.
Chained, deprived of food and water, his injuries worsened, no one looked at him, no one spoke to him, and he just "fed himself up".
Even if he died, it seemed that no one knew.
Even no one collected his body.
But this obviously did not conform to the rules of the Daoting Division.
So Mo Hua thought that there might be a traitor in the Daoting Division, so that Hwa Lang-jun could be killed without anyone noticing, in the tightly closed and dark Daoyu.
And Hwa Lang-jun obviously had clues about the Fire Buddha.
Gu Changhuai's face was very ugly.
He called several officers in charge of the Daoyu and asked them to hold him accountable.
The officers were terrified and bowed their heads:
"Please forgive me, we really don't know..."
"After the interrogation, no one cared about him."
"I don't know why he died suddenly."
"I was careless for a while and didn't pay attention to whether this criminal was alive or dead. Please forgive me, sir!"
In the words, they said "forgive me", but it was all excuses.
If Hua Langjun was convicted, it would be a capital crime.
Carelessness and inattention caused a "dead" prisoner to die some time earlier.
This is not a big mistake.
Even if it was reported, at most he would be reprimanded and fined some salary.
Although Gu Changhuai was angry, it was difficult to do anything to them.
Besides, these two Daoyu officers really didn't know what was going on.
The "carelessness" they mentioned was very likely just carelessness.
It was just "carelessness" under the control of others.
But there was one thing that Mo Hua might be right about.
Some people in the Daoting Division are probably not clean...
Even including the last time, Yu'er's incident...
Gu Changhuai frowned and thought, and suddenly his heart trembled. He turned around and looked at Mo Hua next to him.
He felt that Mo Hua's aura had suddenly changed, becoming very strange, and there was a hint of mysterious meaning that was hard to explain.
It was like he was possessed by something...
It was like his consciousness was undergoing some changes.
What is going on?
Gu Changhuai was in doubt.
Just then, Mo Hua turned around, and the dark strange color in his eyes flashed away, and then became clear and bright again.
"Uncle Gu, what's wrong?"
Gu Changhuai's eyelids twitched slightly.
Mo Hua was still the same Mo Hua before, with clear eyes, like a pool of water, with a restrained luster and no bottom.
But he clearly felt that trace of dangerous and strange aura...
"Is it an illusion..."
"Or am I too suspicious..."
Gu Changhuai frowned.
Mo Hua blinked.
He had just taken advantage of Gu Changhuai's distraction and thought, and secretly used the strange calculation method to fusion and peek at Hua Langjun's cause and effect.
In this instant, the change of spiritual consciousness was actually noticed.
As expected of the chief of the Dao Ting Division.
Mo Hua took it as a warning.
It seems that in front of great cultivators above the Jindan realm, especially the chief of the Dao Ting Division of the Great State Realm, this method of fusion of heavenly secrets and peeping at cause and effect should be used with caution.
Lest someone with ulterior motives see through the details...
The master's heavenly secret calculation is better, but it is more involved in cause and effect, and on the surface it is still a righteous method.
But the master's heavenly secret calculation is different.
In this world, there is probably no one else who cultivates the strange spiritual consciousness except the master.
If I am regarded as a "little strange Taoist", it will be terrible.
Seeing that Gu Changhuai was still looking at him suspiciously, as if his suspicions had not yet been resolved, Mo Hua "took the initiative" and asked first:
"Uncle Gu, have you figured out anything?"
"How did this Hua Langjun die?"
"Who killed him?"
"Could it be..."
Mo Hua raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two officers next to him, the chief officers of Daoyu.
The two officers immediately broke out in cold sweats and said to Gu Changhuai:
"Gu Dianshi!"
"Although we were negligent, the death of this criminal has nothing to do with us..."
"How dare we break the law and kill people in Daoyu..."
"Gu Dianshi, please understand!"
"Gu Dianshi..."
Gu Changhuai was interrupted by the quarrel between the two, and he forgot about Mo Hua.
"Okay." Gu Changhuai's eyes turned cold and he glanced at the two people, "This matter should be handled according to the rules. If there is a punishment, you can go down."
The two did not dare to disobey Gu Changhuai, and they saluted and said, "Yes."
Then they left.
Gu Changhuai wanted to say something to Mo Hua, but he raised his head, looked at the gloomy and closed roof of Daoyu, shook his head, and gave up the idea.
"Let's go out first..." Gu Changhuai said.
"Oh."
Mo Hua followed Gu Changhuai and left Daoyu.
But when leaving, Mo Hua turned back quietly and looked at the dead Hua Langjun.
This Hua Langjun was as beautiful as a flower, handsome and suave, and lingered in the land of tenderness. I don't know how many women he had sex with.
After his death, no one knew about it, leaving behind only ragged clothes and a dirty and rotten skin.
Sure enough, everything in the world, the pleasure of the flesh, is false.
And...
Hua Langjun died too naturally.
There is no sign of human intervention.
Just now, my pupils were dark, and the strangeness merged, but I couldn't see any trace of cause and effect.
This killing method is extremely clever.
"The best way to cover up cause and effect is to let nature take its course and not get involved in cause and effect..."
Mo Hua silently remembered it in his heart.
"I must study hard..."
...
After leaving Daoyu, Gu Changhuai's face was as gloomy as water.
He thought about it, and ordered someone to send some of Hua Langjun's relics, evidence, and storage bags.
Then he chose a quiet court room and looked through it himself.
Mo Hua was next to him, leaning his head, and wanted to take a look.
Seeing this, Gu Changhuai quickly covered the things and shook his head and said, "You can't look."
"Why?" Mo Hua asked.
"You are still young..."
Mo Hua didn't understand.
Seeing that Mo Hua really didn't understand, Gu Changhuai sighed and reminded him:
"Hua Langjun is a flower thief..."
In his storage bag, there are all kinds of sex techniques, erotic pictures, picking and replenishing skills, flower appraisal records... a bunch of vulgar and obscene things that are not suitable for children...
Must not let Mo Hua see them.
Otherwise, he will learn bad things.
Mo Hua suddenly realized and remembered that when he caught Hua Langjun, Senior Sister Murong didn't let him see these things in the storage bag.
"Okay, if you don't want to see it, then don't look at it..."
Mo Hua lay on the side and stared at Gu Changhuai.
Gu Changhuai felt uncomfortable being looked at by Mo Hua, so he said a little unhappy:
"What are you looking at me for? What should I do, do it, I'm investigating a case..."
Mo Hua raised three fingers:
"Three rules!"
"The third rule is that if you go out, I will follow you and stay with you. Don't act on your own and do whatever you want..."
"You said it yourself!"
Mo Hua was righteous. Gu Changhuai felt a headache.
He was careless. He was careless and moved a stone and hit his foot.
This kid's mind is too fast...
He can take advantage of any loophole.
"Okay..."
Gu Changhuai had no choice but to ignore Mo Hua and look through Hua Langjun's storage bag to find clues.
This storage bag was sealed by the Daoting Division.
The monks outside could not touch it.
If the monks inside the Daoting Division wanted to tamper with it, they would definitely leave traces.
So far, no one has touched the things inside.
With his many years of experience in handling cases in the Daoting Division, Gu Changhuai carefully looked through them one by one, paying attention to clues and looking for usable clues.
But most of them were unsightly.
Gu Changhuai became more and more annoyed the more he looked.
Finally, when he saw a jade slip, his expression was shocked and there was a hint of understanding in his eyes.
Although he couldn't look at the storage bag, Mo Hua, who could always stare at Gu Changhuai, also instantly caught the change of emotions on Gu Changhuai's face.
Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "Uncle Gu, do you have any clues?"
Gu Changhuai was about to nod, but suddenly shook his head, put the jade slip away, and said lightly: "No."
"I saw it!" Mo Hua said confidently.
"What did you see?"
"I saw your eyes change," Mo Hua said, "You must have discovered something!"
Gu Changhuai's scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart:
This little ghost Mo Hua must have been possessed by an old monster.
At such a young age, he is as shrewd as a ghost.
But Gu Changhuai still said stubbornly: "If I say there is no, there is no."
"Okay." Mo Hua sighed.
He is a Taoist court official in the Jindan realm, but he doesn't care about his face and acts like a rogue. What can a small cultivator like me do?
Mo Hua could only settle for the next best thing and asked:
"Uncle Gu, where are we going next?"
Gu Changhuai said without hesitation: "Hua Langjun is dead, the clue is 'broken'..."
Then seeing Mo Hua looking at him with a questioning look, Gu Changhuai coughed, looked away, and said lightly:
"We can go home."
Mo Hua nodded, "Then Uncle Gu, you go back first."
"Yeah." Gu Changhuai nodded, and suddenly startled, "You don't go back?"
"I have something else."
"What is it?"
Mo Hua did not hide it, "I want to go to Bishan City to see the Xie family that was wiped out."
Gu Changhuai frowned, "The Xie family has become a scorched earth and has been sealed by Daotingsi. You can't get in. And Bishan City is a bit dangerous now, you can't go."
Mo Hua whispered: "Then how about you take me there?"
"No." Gu Changhuai refused.
"Then I'll go by myself," Mo Hua said, "You go back and tell Aunt Wan that I won't be back home. After I go to Bishan City, I'll go back to the sect by myself."
Mo Hua looked calm, but his eyes were cunning.
Gu Changhuai was stunned for a moment, and then he understood instantly.
This kid Mo Hua was threatening him.
If he took Mo Hua out, if he didn't bring him back, he would definitely be blamed by his cousin, and it would also make his cousin worried.
I must bring him to my cousin intact.
And if he doesn't want to go back, I can't force him.
Otherwise, if he talks and forcibly takes him back, he will complain, and I will have no way to explain to my cousin.
After all, he is obviously the "little benefactor" of the Shangguan family, and he must be respected.
So this time, I can only let him go. Wherever he goes, I will follow him...
Gu Changhuai was so angry that his teeth itched.
Mo Hua looked calm, waiting for Gu Changhuai's reply.
Gu Changhuai thought for a long time and finally compromised, "Okay, I'll take you there, but as we agreed, when we go to Bishan City, you can go back home with me and don't have any other thoughts."
"Yeah!" Mo Hua said with a smile, "It's a deal!"
…
It was getting late and it was not suitable to leave, so the two of them rested for the night at the inn in Luanshan City.
At dawn the next day, after eating something simple, we set off and left Luanshan City for the nearby Bishan City.
This is the second time Mo Hua has entered Bishan City.
It is crossed by cliffs, thousands of meters high, and intertwined with mountains.
Most of the cave buildings are built on steep cliffs, which look strange and magnificent.
But the atmosphere in the city is a bit depressing.
Pedestrians passing by on the road were all silent and looked worried and solemn.
Fire Buddha massacred all the monks of the Xie family in front of the Tao Ting Si and the monks in the city.
The Xie family was reduced to a sea of fire, the whole family was cut off, and hundreds of years of foundation were destroyed in one fell swoop.
Everyone in Bishan City is somewhat in danger.
Gu Changhuai's expression was even more ugly. His face was livid all the way, and he wanted to immediately behead the Fire Buddha and all the criminal cultivators in public.
Not long after, the two arrived at the ruins of the Xie family's mansion.
What you see is ruins and scorched earth.
Floor tiles are embedded in the ground outside Xie's house.
These floor tiles, with formations painted on them, were connected end to end, forming a thin, invisible barrier, sealing off the Xie family, which had been reduced to a scorched earth, and not allowing outsiders to enter.
This is Daotingsi's warning formation.
"Just watch from outside." Gu Changhuai said.
Mo Hua disagreed, but had no choice but to peek inside through the warning formation.
At this glance, we saw some clues.
Although it was completely charred, traces of the formation still remained on the outside of the Xie family.
"Second-grade Golden Earth Genshan Reunion Formation..."
Mo Hua murmured.
Gu Changhuai was startled when he heard the name of this formation.
Mo Hua continued to read, and at the same time released his spiritual consciousness. Instead of using trick calculations, he only used calculations to deduce the remaining spiritual traces of the formation, and murmured in a low voice:
"Outside of Xie's family..."
"Originally... it was a second-grade Golden Earth Genshan formation, a defensive formation composed of Five Elements Golden Earth and Bagua Genshan..."
"However, the array pattern has been changed..."
"Only the gold array pattern has been changed, nothing else has been changed..."
"No...it's through changes to the gold array patterns that the earth array patterns, formations, and effects are changed..."
"The second-grade Jintu Genshan formation will become..."
"Second-grade 'Burial' Tugenshan Reunion Formation..."
"This trap has buried all the Xie family in their own home..."
…
The more Gu Changhuai listened, the more frightened he became, and he said in a solemn tone:
"Who did you hear that from?"
"What?" Mo Hua was slightly startled.
"About the Xie family's formation..." Gu Changhuai looked solemn.
Mo Hua asked doubtfully: "Do you still need to hear about this kind of thing? Can't you see it at a glance..."
You can tell at a glance...
Gu Changhuai turned his head and glanced at the dark scorched earth in front of him.
Can you tell at a glance that you are a big-headed ghost?
How can this be seen?
It's all black, full of residue, everything has been burned, what can you tell from this?
Gu Changhuai felt a little unbelievable.
What Mo Hua said is basically exactly the same as what Daotingsi found out...
The difference is that Daotingsi invited several second-grade formation masters to conduct inspections for three days from morning to night and carefully compared them before restoring these formations from a pile of ruins. The change.
Because of this, I learned what the Xie family's formation was and what they did to it.
But ink painting...
He just walked over and took a look...
You can see everything without even walking in to take a look through the warning formation?
Gu Changhuai's mood was complicated.
Although the facts were before his eyes, common sense prevented him from believing such outrageous things.
"You...really saw it?"
Gu Changhuai asked with a frown.
"Of course!" Mo Hua looked proud, "I am a disciple of Taixu Sect!"
What's more, he also learned formations from Mr. Xun.
These days, whenever I have meritorious deeds, I go to the Merit Pavilion to change formations. I don’t know how many second-level formations I have learned.
With the teachings of Mr. Xun and the profound inheritance of formations collected by Taixu Sect’s predecessors, Mo Hua’s current formation foundation is stronger than before.
He is now considered a second-grade formation master with a truly great sect background!
However, it has no real name and has not been finalized yet.
Gu Changhuai frowned even more tightly.
Does this have anything to do with Taixu Sect?
Taixu Sect is not a sect based on formations. Where did the disciples under the sect come from such outrageous formation attainments?
Even for a sect that established a sect through formations, it would be impossible!
What's more, you haven't even been a full year since you started...
How much can you learn?
Gu Changhuai stared at the ink painting for a few times, then suddenly his mind moved slightly and he asked:
"Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Mo Hua was surprised, "Really?"
Gu Changhuai nodded.
Mo Hua was a little suspicious.
Uncle Gu...is a bit abnormal...
Originally, I wanted to go into Xie's house to have a look, but he wouldn't let me.
Now he didn't say anything, but he took the initiative to let him go in and take a look.
However, he would not refuse such a good thing.
"Okay!" Mo Hua nodded.
Gu Changhuai took out a golden waist badge.
This waist badge, made of pure gold, is elegant and luxurious. It is much more valuable than Mo Hua's own shabby bronze waist badge.
Mo Hua looked at it with envy.
But now he can only look at it.
Gu Changhuai held the golden waist badge and gently scratched it on the warning array.
An invisible, faint barrier was opened.
"Let's go."
Gu Changhuai walked in first.
Mo Hua hesitated, and also took a step. Following Gu Changhuai, he crossed the warning array and walked into the Xie family where all the members were killed.
As soon as he stepped down, he stepped on the charred ground where the blood was burned dry.
Suddenly, a scream sounded in his ears.
This voice was very shrill and contained endless pain.
Under the clear sky and broad daylight, Mo Hua's eyes were hazy.
The sea of fire suddenly appeared in the dark night.
In the sea of fire, there were dense figures, they ran, struggled, and screamed in pain, like the wronged souls suffering in hell.
Executioners with ferocious faces raised their butcher knives, slaughtering, dismembering, and reveling.
Blades pierced into flesh, cut open chests, cut open abdomens, and took out bloody internal organs...
The sea of fire was boiling, blood and fire blended.
The faces of people were hideous, like demons dancing wildly.
And those who died tragically were like slaughtered livestock...
