Chapter 33 Night Visit to Kong Mansion

Liang Yan hid behind the tree and saw the people of the "Eradicate Association" starting to discuss the specific details, and thought to himself:

"It turns out that Chen Zhuo'an's true identity is the leader of this 'anti-rape society'. I didn't expect that this small Yongle town would be so lively, with both the entanglements of Jianghu and temples and the secret plots of cultivators."

Liang Yan glanced at the people present and said in his heart: "If I were that group of monks, I would definitely set up hidden stakes among the mortals in Yongle Town to monitor everyone coming and going for suspicious persons. These people come from all over the world and have martial arts skills. , I wonder if there are hidden stakes for them."

While Liang Yan was thinking in his mind, everyone over there had finalized their plans, greeted each other, and then left. Liang Yan waited until they were all gone before he got up and returned to the inn alone.

He returned to the inn, pushed open Tang Diexian's room, and saw that there was no one inside. He sat down at the table and sorted out the current clues alone.

"Although the group of monks lurking in Yongle Town are cautious, it seems that they don't know that Tang Diexian and I have arrived in the town as sect investigation disciples. Otherwise, they would never be so calm."

"They didn't seem to realize that the green-robed guest was dead last night. Otherwise, just because the green-robed guest lived in the Laifu Inn, it would be easy to suspect that the person who had just moved to the inn recently would not send someone alone during the day. For a monk from the fourth level of Qi training to come to the store to investigate, it would be the same as committing suicide. Now it seems that the old fortune teller during the day seemed to be doing a routine job to check for suspicious people in the area he was responsible for. "

"But looking at it this way, it's even more strange. This group of people all wear the same jade pendant and behave like a disciplined organization. Why haven't they noticed the Green Pao Ke's death today?"

While Liang Yan was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a creak and saw that the west window was pushed open, and then a woman in white came in through the window, it was Tang Diexian.

Liang Yan frowned and said, "You didn't leave the good door, but you wanted to climb through the window. You thought you were some blind thief."

Tang Diexian slapped him and said angrily: "You are a thief!" Then he said excitedly: "I have found out clearly that although the master of martial arts arranged by the sect died, the person who took over later was the one who took over. It’s a warrior named Kong Xiang.”

"Oh? Where is this person now?"

"Dead, he died two years ago, and his whole family was wiped out, leaving no one behind!"

Liang Yan's pupils shrank and he was silent for a while before saying: "Two years ago? What a coincidence, it was two years ago that the sect lost contact. It seems that this person was not hiding anything, but was silenced."

Tang Diexian nodded and said, "Yes, I think so too."

Liang Yan added: "In that case, let's go to the Confucius Mansion tonight. If the tragedy happened that year, if it was done by a cultivator, there might be clues left."

"I think so too!"

Tang Diexian said as he took out two sets of night clothes and threw one set to Liang Yan. The two of them put on their clothes, left an oil lamp in the room, and ran out of the Laifu Inn.

The two stepped on the bricks and tiles of the roof, and after a few leaps, they arrived in front of a house in the north of the town.

This mansion has red bricks and green tiles, and has an extraordinary atmosphere. It can be seen that it was bustling and lively in the past, but it has been abandoned for a long time now, and the corners and eaves are covered with spider webs.

The two of them climbed over the wall and walked to the inner courtyard. They saw only broken beams and broken tiles along the way. It was obvious that there had been a struggle.

After a brief inspection of the surroundings, Tang Diexian said: "There are traces of spells involving cultivators. It was a one-sided battle. It is not an exaggeration to call it a massacre."

Liang Yan nodded and said: "These monks want to control the spiritual mine, so it makes sense to massacre Kong Xiang's family. Let's search carefully around to see if there are any clues."

Naturally, Tang Diexian had no objections. The two of them split up. Liang Yan went to each room in the inner hall and searched them one by one. Except for some furniture decorations, nothing was found.

Liang Yan searched for about half an hour and found no clues, so he had no choice but to return to the meeting hall. At this time, Tang Diexian had also returned. The two looked at each other and could see the disappointment in each other's eyes.

Liang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect these people to do things so cleanly and not leave any clues."

Tang Diexian also said angrily: "Don't let me catch these naughty foxes, otherwise I will teach them a lesson!" Then he thought of something again and said to Liang Yan: "I found out in those halls where they were fighting. These things should be what they left behind after the First World War. Check them out to see if there are any clues."

As he spoke, he took out his storage bag and shook it on the ground. Several iron swords, axes and the like instantly fell out. Some were rusty, and some were filled with cold light. They were obviously not ordinary soldiers. These things fell to the ground and made a clanging sound.

Liang Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, he leaned down, pulled out a sword that exuded a cold light, and struck the ground a few times.

Seeing his appearance, Tang Diexian said excitedly: "Is there any clue on this sword?"

Liang Yan shook his head and said, "It's not that there's something wrong with the sword, it's that there's something wrong with the underground!"

"underground?"

Tang Diexian is also a smart person, and he immediately reacted, "Are you saying there is a universe under the ground?"

"That's right!" Liang Yan nodded and said, "There should be a secret room underground."

His six senses are as sharp as those of ordinary fifth-level qi-training monks. He just hit the ground with a steel knife and has determined that there is a secret room deep underground.

As Liang Yan spoke, he began to explore nearby. Tang Diexian knew that he was looking for a mechanism to enter the secret room, so he said nonchalantly: "No need to bother, we can just use magic to penetrate a downward passage."

Liang Yan glanced at her and asked, "Now in Yongle Town, there is a group of fourth- and fifth-level qi-training monks, and there are only two of us. Do you know what our biggest reliance is?"

Tang Diexian shook his head.

Liang Yan blinked and smiled: "Our biggest reliance is that the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. Those monks don't know that we have used our status as mortals to sneak into Yongle Town, so we can fish in troubled waters!"

Tang Diexian rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are the only one with the most clever ideas. If you don't want to fight, don't fight. I'll look for him with you!" After that, he also started searching in the room.

The two searched for a while, and Tang Diexian suddenly touched an oil lamp and made a slight clicking sound, which was keenly caught by Liang Yan.

He was so happy that he walked to the oil lamp and dragged the chassis to slowly rotate. He only heard a clicking sound, and a rumbling sound came from behind the desk. Then the ground opened up, revealing a step, which went deep underground. .

Liang Yan and Tang Diexian looked at each other and walked down the steps one after another. Liang Yan took out the Nine-Dragon Stick and walked in front first. Tang Diexian walked behind and raised his hand to cast a spell, which emitted a faint light and illuminated the path downward.

The two walked down for a while, and suddenly saw a stone door in front of them. Liang Yan reached out and pushed it open, only to see a stone room inside. It contains beds, desks, oil lamps and other daily necessities, as well as a lot of dried meat, noodles and other food that can be stored. There is also a ditch on the ground with clear water, which seems to be a channel of living water.

"It seems that someone has lived here for a while." Tang Diexian said.

Liang Yan nodded and walked to the desk. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of a black book and picked it up to read.

Unexpectedly, Liang Yan's eyes lit up as soon as he read a page, and he saw it read: "Li Hong is a thief, forming a party for personal gain, deceiving superiors and subordinates, excluding dissidents in the court, and plundering people's wealth and support from the people. He is actually a great leader of the country." The old general, the pillar of the country, was harmed by him. Fortunately, Tang Mou stole the false imperial edict and was about to go to Beijing to meet the saint, but he accidentally leaked the news and was intercepted and killed by Li Hong's dog thief. Fortunately, the guards on the left and right desperately delayed, allowing Tang Mou to escape. "

Liang Yan thought to himself: "It seems that this diary was left by the Tang Tiannan mentioned by Chen Zhuo'an."

He continued to look down and saw what was written at the back, intermittently, which probably meant that there was a martial arts family, the Kong family, in Yongle town. Their head, Kong Xiang, was a family friend of his and worthy of his trust, so he came here to seek refuge with him. There is a secret room in Kong Xiang's home, where he recovers from his injuries.

The diary ends abruptly at this point. Tang Diexian took the diary and read it carefully. He frowned and said, "This diary does not mention the tragedy of the Kong family, but this place is so secretive. Judging from the appearance of this place, it should not have been discovered by the monks. Maybe this is called Tang Tiannan." No one is dead yet.”

Liang Yan nodded and said: "Nine times out of ten, that's the case. Tang Tiannan is probably not dead. He is the only survivor of the tragedy that year. Maybe he knows something."

After hearing this, Tang Diexian couldn't help but feel discouraged and said, "It's just that Yongle Town is so big, where can we find such a person?"

Liang Yan said with a smile: "Maybe we don't have to look for it, someone will help us find it."

As he said that, he told her exactly what he had done in the forest before. Then he added: "If Tang Tiannan is not dead, he will definitely not let the fake imperial edict go unchecked. If he finds the fake edict, he might be able to follow the clues and find Tang Tiannan."

"Is there such a thing?" Tang Diexian's eyes widened. What do you mean, "We are going to follow them secretly?"

"I'm afraid we're not just following them secretly." Liang Yan shook his head and said, "We have to help them if necessary."
