After being stabbed to death by my junior brother

When Shen Qiuting and Bai Guanchen walked to the city gate, they passed by several disciples of Kunlun Sword School dressed up.

Recently, the monsters have settled down a lot, and the pressure on the monks has also eased a lot. A few disciples walked outside the city while chatting.

A disciple asked, "What happened to that lunatic just now?"

Another disciple replied: "You mean the one in the City Lord's Mansion? It has already been sent to the dungeon by Senior Brother Zhao. The dungeon is on duty today with Uncle Chu, so there shouldn't be any problems."

One of the disciples must have participated in the escort, so he interjected: "That lunatic was quite arrogant in front of Lin Jianzun, but when he was sent to the dungeon, he was very honest. He didn't say a word, and went to sleep after entering the dungeon. It seems that there is indeed something wrong with the brain."

Shen Qiuting listened to it, his heart suddenly moved, he leaned over and patted the disciple's shoulder, and asked, "Does that lunatic have any other abnormalities?"

The disciple heard someone ask, scratched his head, and said: "There is nothing unusual. The smell on his body is too bad, as if he has rolled in a pile of dead people for seven or eight days, and few people are willing to approach him. "

Shen Qiuting thanked the disciple and returned to Bai Guanchen's side.

Bai Guanchen saw that his expression was different, and asked, "What's wrong with that man?"

Shen Qiuting thought for a while, but dared not make a conclusion, and said, "Let's go to the dungeon first."

The dungeon is just under the city lord's mansion, and the two of them arrived at the entrance of the dungeon in just a cup of tea.

Today, it was Chu Jixue's turn to be on duty in the dungeon. Seeing them, she wondered, "Why are you here? Do you want to compete with swords?"

In addition to the original prisoners in the dungeon, there were some devil and evil cultivators who were caught in the city after the beast tide started, trying to fish in troubled waters, and no important people were locked in recently.Right now, most people are busy with the beast tide, and few people will come to the dungeon.

Shen Qiuting pushed aside the tip of the spirit sword that he was wiping in his hand, and asked directly, "Where is the person sent here today?"

Chu Jixue gave Shen Qiuting a displeased look, put away the spirit sword, and replied: "It's in the innermost cell. Master is busy today, so I haven't had time to interrogate him yet."

Shen Qiuting nodded, left a "thank you" and wanted to go in directly.

Unexpectedly, Chu Jixue suddenly reached out to stop him, and said seriously: "No entry into the dungeon is allowed without the warrants of the heads of each faction."

This prohibition was set up to prevent unscrupulous people from entering the dungeon.However, during this period of time, there were no important persons imprisoned in the dungeon, and the monks in the beast tide were highly mobile, and the leaders of various factions probably could not be found.If they met a familiar face with no problem of identity, the former rotating disciples would often turn a blind eye and let them in.Over time, not many people remember this ban.

Shen Qiuting looked at his stern look, and felt a headache: "Can you accommodate me?"

Chu Jixue frowned: "The rules are like this, how can there be accommodation?"

Shen Qiuting looked at him for a while, finally lost, turned to Bai Guanchen and said, "Let's knock him out first."

Right now, the important person in charge probably has already left the city to take charge of his own jurisdiction. When he finds someone who needs a warrant, even if there is something wrong with the person in the dungeon, the day lily will be cold.

Before Chu Jixue realized the meaning of Shen Qiuting's words, Bai Guanchen slapped him on the back of the neck, and passed out before he could say a word.

Seeing that the person was completely dizzy, Shen Qiuting took off the ID badge on Chu Jixue's waist, threw a magic circle at the door to temporarily replace Chu Jixue's use, and then dragged Bai Guanchen down dungeon.

The dungeon was dark, and there was an oil lamp hanging on the wall at a certain distance. The shadow of the lamp was dim, mixed with the unique unpleasant smell in the prison, which made people feel gloomy.

There were not many people in the dungeon, and there were only a few people in the rooms along the way, and they didn't say anything when they saw people coming, and they still had to do what they should do.

Most of them are monks of the demonic way, and it is only a matter of time before they fall into the hands of the righteous way, and they will die sooner or later. Naturally, they will not spend energy on paying attention to things that have nothing to do with them.

The two walked all the way to the innermost prison, and they saw the man in black this morning.

The man in black was curled up in the corner motionless, and he didn't know if he was sleeping or passed out.

Just like what the disciple at the gate of the city said, this man exudes a rotten stench all over his body, and people can't help but cover their noses across the prison circle.

Shen Qiuting pressed Chu Jixue's identity card on the magic circle, and walked in without frowning against the pungent stench.

He approached the man in black in the corner, checked his pulse and breath.

Shen Qiuting frowned, and said to Bai Guanchen who followed, "He's already dead."

He stretched out the curled up body of the man in black.Half of the tattered robe of the man in black fell off, exposing a large piece of bare skin covered with scars.

Shen Qiuting's eyes fell on a purple-red plaque on the corpse, and he froze slightly.

It's plaque.

Bai Guanchen didn't like the environment inside very much, so he couldn't help but frowned, looked at the corpse spot, and said, "Looking at the corpse, it should have been dead for a few days."

Shen Qiuting gave a "hmm" and stood up.

If this person had died long ago, who was talking nonsense in front of everyone this morning?

What's more, who is the monk of the Kunlun Sword Sect following these days?

Shen Qiuting cleaned up the fingers that had touched the corpse with spiritual power, and said: "Tell Lin Jianzun about this first."

This kind of thing is rare in the righteous way, but Shen Qiuting has been in the Demon Realm for a long time, and has seen similar phenomena.

The living soul is stripped from the body and sent to a newly dead corpse, and the corpse can act and speak like a living person.But this method is not really resurrecting the dead, the corpse will still rot and rot until it is completely unusable.And the soul that has been stripped out has no way to return to its original body, it can only continue to attach itself to fresh corpses, or find a weak soul to take away.

This kind of behavior is called "borrowing corpses" in the Demon Realm, and it is often used by some old immortal souls to do business in the world for a short time when there is no suitable object to seize.

It's just that I don't know where this "borrowed corpse" spirit came from today.

While Bai Guanchen went to send a sound transmission talisman to Lin Xiu, Shen Qiuting looked at the corpse for a while, and suddenly found something unusual.

He squatted down again and fiddled with the corpse's left hand.

There was a thick callus on the left hand of the corpse.

Shen Qiuting has used swords for many years anyway, so he can tell at a glance that this person should have been a swordsman in his life.

And the level should be good, at least above the golden core stage.

There are not many left-handed sword cultivators above Jindan Stage, Shen Qiuting vaguely remembered that there seemed to be an elder of the Kunlun Sword Sect who wields a left-handed sword.

He thought for a while, stood up and went out of the dungeon to wake up Chu Jixue who was still in a coma, and dragged him into the dungeon before he recovered.

Shen Qiuting pointed to the corpse on the ground and said, "Look, do you recognize him?"

Chu Jixue came back to her senses, rubbed her still aching neck, and was about to explain to Shen Qiuting the rules of entering the dungeon, when the corpse on the ground attracted her attention.

He frowned: "Isn't this the prisoner who just came in today? How did he die?"

To kill a prisoner in the dungeon privately, you must first detain the prisoner and then report it.

Seeing that he was about to talk about the rules again, Shen Qiuting immediately interrupted him: "I remember that there is a left-handed elder in your Kunlun Sword Sect, do you know where he went?"

Chu Jixue was forcibly distracted, thought for a while, and replied: "You mean Elder Yang? He took people to another stronghold to guard before the beast tide started, and he never came back."

The monsters have a wide area of ​​action. Some monks in towns far away from Suihan City can't get to Suihan City in time, so they will rush to the nearby stronghold to fight against the monsters.Therefore, each small stronghold also needs people to guard it.

Shen Qiuting knelt down and pulled the tattered robe off the corpse, revealing the left hand of the corpse: "Take a look, is this person the Elder Yang you mentioned just now?"

Chu Jixue also squatted down and looked carefully for a long time before connecting the unrecognizable corpse in front of him with the usually unsmiling Elder Yang from some subtle physical characteristics, and a look of surprise appeared on his face which was rare.

Elder Yang's stronghold is not close to Suihan City, even if he really died, the body should not appear here.

Looking at his expression, Shen Qiuting knew that he had guessed right, and said with a headache: "I'm afraid something happened to the stronghold where Elder Yang is."

Chu Jixue frowned, and said, "But yesterday, Master still communicated with Elder Yang."

The corpse seemed to have been dead for a few days, so who was it that communicated with Master yesterday?

Shen Qiuting said: "Either there are no living people in the stronghold, or there are ghosts in the stronghold."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Guanchen, who had just gone to send a voice transmission to Lin Xiu, suddenly walked in hurriedly, with a face as watery as he said, "Jianzun Lin is missing."

Just as Bai Guanchen said a word, Chu Jixue stood up abruptly: "I'm going to find Master."

"Come back!" Shen Qiuting was almost pissed off by this obsession, and grabbed him, "Do you know where Lin Jianzun disappeared? You can go find it?"

Chu Jixue was forcibly pressed down, staring at Bai Guanchen unwillingly.

Seeing that Shen Qiuting was restraining the people, Bai Guanchen continued: "The stronghold in Ling'an Town was breached by monsters, and Lin Jianzun disappeared in the town."

Shen Qiuting remembered the conversation with Chu Jixue just now, and subconsciously glanced at Chu Jixue.

Caring about the missing master in her heart, Chu Jixue's single-minded head was rare, and she nodded at Shen Qiuting: "Ling'an Town is the stronghold that Elder Yang is in charge of."

Shen Qiuting rubbed his aching head: "Okay, let's pack up and go."

It seems that Ling'an Town must be visited.
