After hearing the news, all the monks from Taihe Temple surrounded Ningxin Hall.The monks made way for a gap to let the abbot and the supervisor walk in front.

"Ling Song has no news yet." The supervisor said to the host while walking, "The matter is very important, I have sent someone to invite the deputy city lord in advance."

"When something like this happens, what's the use of asking the deputy city lord? The city lord is still in the room." The host wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, "If madam dies in our temple, he's afraid he'll kill all the monks in the Taihe Temple Pull it out and bury it alive!"

"The host, don't worry, let's see the situation."

Only then did the host think of looking for someone: "Where is Sijin? Go and call Sijin over."

These days, Wuma really always goes out alone and goes in alone, and the only person who interacts with him is Xiao Sijin.

The monk at the side said, "Sijin is also in the room, and she hasn't come out yet."

Before the words were finished, the door of the room was pushed open with a creak, a burst of light mist dispersed, and Wuma really quietly appeared in everyone's sight.

His face was calm, he didn't say a word, he just raised his eyes and looked at everyone present.

All the monks lowered their eyes to make way for him.

What he held in his hands was Shao Wenxiang's body.The lady of the night is like a withered flower, her wrist like a lotus root is still dripping blood.

Sijin closed the door and returned to the host.

"Are you going to preside over the Buddhist ceremony?" Sijin asked calmly.

Only then did the host come back to his senses and said, "Hurry up, get ready."

Shao Wenxiang died in the Taihe Temple, and the Taihe Temple was at fault in the end, so everything must be done to deal with the aftermath, so as not to fall into the shoes of others.Wuma really didn't make a clear statement just now, which means that at least he didn't take his anger out on Taihe Temple.Although the truth has not yet been found out, but at least it is a good sign.

The host's heart is settled.

Coincidentally at this moment, the deputy city lord Jingwang came, and the presiding officer took the prison yard to greet him, and then all the monks dispersed one by one.

Ling Mu pulled Si Jin who was about to leave, and asked with concern: "Where did Ling Song go?"

When there was chaos just now, he was still sorting out the bibliography in the library, and vaguely heard the news that "the first one has gone after the murderer", so he came to ask about the situation.

Sijin rubbed her eyes, and replied: "When my senior brother and I entered Ningxin Hall, we saw a suspicious person, and my senior brother went after him."

After hearing this, Ling Mu tied up his robe tightly, and asked for a martial stick: "Will you go after him alone? He's dead-headed, and he won't stop until he's overtaken. I'll go and bring him back."

Sijin wanted to say something, but seeing Lingmu's decisive expression, he could only say: "Be careful."

He is very confused now, and there is really no way to find his senior brother together.

Ling Qu told him just now that Shao Wenxiang's death was related to the Eldest Princess.And just before Shao Wenxiang's accident, the eldest princess also died.Regardless of whether all this is a coincidence or not, the royal family is involved, and King Xijue will definitely not sit idly by.

Alarming the King of Xijue, this is a big deal.Even if the evidence of Taihe Temple is solid, it is difficult to get rid of the relationship.If you want to keep the Taihe Temple, you must cooperate with Ling Qu, and you can only cooperate with Ling Qu.

the next day.A west hall was tidied up and temporarily used as a mourning hall.

Shao Wenxiang's body was placed in the coffin, covered with a white cloth.

When Sijin left, Lingqu was stirring the fire in the brazier.In the huge west hall, only flames are shaking.

"Brother, they will definitely find that person." Sijin squatted down beside Lingqu, and said.

Shao Wenxiang died, and Sijin felt bad.It can even be said to be a little sad.He didn't know what Ling Qu was thinking at this moment, but company at this moment might be the only thing Ling Qu could do.

"Have you forgotten who I am?" Ling Qu threw the paper money into the brazier with a tepid tone.

Who killed Shao Wenxiang actually had nothing to do with him.Si Jin pondered for a moment, then lowered her eyes: "You are right."

Ling Qu is Ling Qu, the commander of the fire army who was born as a slave in the dungeon, but died young despite his extraordinary talent.

And Wuma is really Wumazhen, the mighty and powerful city lord of Liangshuo in Xijue, everyone's thorn in the side.

The two are not the same person.

Sijin didn't know where the real city lord went and why Ling Qu faked his death to impersonate him.He vaguely felt that there was a bigger conspiracy hidden behind all this, or that there were hands behind the scenes fiddled with the thread and manipulated everyone.

Including himself.

Sijin bit her lip and said with difficulty: "Are you trying to tell me not to meddle in my own business?"

"Don't think too much about it. That's not what I mean."

Ling Qu turned the paper money evenly with tongs, "I just want to ask you, do you remember what you said you wanted to marry me?"

Sijin didn't look up with her drooping head, she just put the scattered paper money back into the brazier: "When is it, I still think about this."

Once the higher authorities get angry and conduct a thorough investigation, Ling Qu will never escape the word "death".Even if Huo Jun Xicai intended to be his guarantor, Thunder's Wrath would not be able to do what he wanted.Replacing the powerful minister, indirectly forcing the princess to death, everything can kill him.

"Isn't it because you're afraid that I'll change back to my previous identity, and you won't recognize this marriage?" Ling Qu laughed, and his tone was quite relaxed, "You Buddhist family repents, who should I talk to for reasoning?"

Sijin shook her head and said earnestly: "It can't be destroyed. You are not used to being a good person. Doesn't it make the same difference whether you change your identity or not?"

It's as if changing the identity back can be cleansed.

That makes sense.Ling Qu suddenly remembered something, and said, "Let me tell you a secret, Mrs. Shao knows about our mess."

Sijin paused for a moment while twisting the prayer beads, and asked, "So what if you know?"

"With her testifying in the sky, you are not allowed to destroy the relationship." Ling Qu said.

What's on your mind?Sijin closed her eyes and chanted sutras, ignoring him.

At this time, Chu Ji, who was guarding the door, knocked lightly on the door: "Master, the deputy city lord is here."

"He's not the only one who came to see me at this time, right?" Ling Qu stood up and relaxed after hearing this, "I don't want to listen to his noise now, please invite him out."

Chuji hadn't finished saying "Good" when a strong wind knocked down the door of the West Hall.Chu Ji was so frightened that he hugged his head tightly and hid away.

The moment the wooden door crashed to the ground, a scimitar struck Ling Qu head-on like a broken bamboo, and was knocked to the ground by a martial stick when it was three centimeters close to his face.

"Who? The use of force is prohibited in the Taihe Temple." Sijin put down the falling star and frowned.

Ling Qu leaned against Sijin's arms, and said very weakly: "It scared me to death."

"The knife was as thick as a bowl just now, if you rescued me later, I would be gone." Ling Qu hugged him tightly by the waist.

The peacock hangs on her body like this, and it is difficult to get out of Sijin for a while.

When did this person become so weak?

While talking, Ling Qu quietly melted the knife embedded in the ground into a pile of foam, and took what was left on the handle into his palm.

"It must be him! That old Buddhist cultivator didn't like me, so he tried to kill me with a machete." Ling Qu pointed to Master Qingxu who came in with Jingwang outside the door, and the villain complained first.

Before the person arrived, he carried a big cauldron, Master Qingxu performed a Namaste salute: "I don't use scimitars."

"That's why you borrowed a knife to kill people." Ling Qu said.

"Why do you need a knife to kill you?" Master Qingxu said kindly.

"You..." Ling Qu was out of breath, and turned to Sijin, "He bullied me, what do you think?"

Si Jin was speechless for a moment.

Jingwang, who squinted his eyes, burned incense in front of the mourning hall, turned to look at the tricky Lingqu and said, "I have something to tell you carefully."

The implication is that others should avoid.

Seeing this, Sijin saluted and said, "Sijin will take my leave first." Jingwang nodded.

As soon as Sijin left, Lingqu's smile gradually faded.

"It's a pity that Mrs. Shao died." Jing Wang said.

Ling Qu twisted his wrist, his eyes were indifferent: "You came here to tell me this?"

Jingwang smiled: "Of course not, I'm here to ask you for advice. Although I didn't participate in the real matter of Wuma, I turned a blind eye to it. If the superior decides to investigate thoroughly, Huo Jun Then it's my turn."

There was something in his words, and Ling Qu heard it: "The superiors thoroughly investigated, how could it be Huojun's turn? I died in your house at the beginning. If you really want to investigate thoroughly, you will be behind me."

Jingwang didn't believe him, and said meaningfully: "That Huo Jun, you really don't know?"

This is obviously unreasonable.Ling Qu is in charge of Huojun's affairs, big and small, and Qi Diao Gong is just a superficial master.The leader who was in charge of his own affairs died inexplicably, wouldn't he be suspicious?What's more, Jingwang has observed that since Ling Qu's "violent death", rumors have spread, but the Huojun has been as quiet as a chicken from the beginning to the end, which is obviously not in line with Qi Diaogong's thunderous style in the past.

Therefore, combining the above points, the fire army must know.

Looking at his determined and confident expression, Ling Qu suddenly lost interest in talking about things: "Second brother, knowing too much may not be a good thing."

"Second Child" is Ling Qu's nickname for Jing Wang in private.

Jing Wang is also smart, knowing what to say and what not to say.What's more, he and Ling Qu were rarely in the same trench when it came to getting rid of Wumazhen.No matter how bad Ling Qu was, what he was doing this time was a human matter, so there was no need to embarrass him at this time.

So Jingwang changed a topic that he might be interested in: "The body of the eldest princess was found in the dungeon this morning, and the second princess threatened to cut you into pieces."

This is indeed a topic that Ling Qu is interested in, but what he is interested in is not here:

"The death knell was struck last night, and the body was only found today. What did these people do during that time?"

Could it be that before the princess died, she took the time to inform her and send someone to find her body?

"You mean, someone already knew that something would happen to the princess?" Jing Wang frowned, already having a measure in his mind.

"You said that, but I didn't say anything." Ling Qu's eyes flashed a hint of teasing.

After that, he picked up a pen and wrote the word "pouring" on the paper money, threw it into the brazier and burned it.

Your palace is really chaotic.

"So, which side are you on?" Suddenly, Jing Wang asked.

This question was not asked out of the blue.At the beginning of the Western Jue, the inner and outer dark tides are raging, and people's hearts are in chaos.Jing Wang has his own principles, he supports Ling Qu except courtiers and dignitaries; but if external forces are used to uproot the entire Xijue, he will definitely not agree.

He is from Xijue, and he loves his homeland.

"This question is really ridiculous." Ling Qu said, "You and I are not on the same side, so what does it matter to you where I stand?"

Jingwang thought for a while, then squinted his eyes and smiled: "You are right. There is no need to ask this question."

There will be no answer.

Because the answer is always to find yourself.What comes out of other people's mouths is often not the real answer.

"But since you asked, it means that you care about this issue. It's not that I can't tell you." Ling Qu flicked the folds on his sleeves, beckoned Jing Wang over, and signaled to speak in a low voice.

Jingwang didn't doubt that he was there, and walked over.

Ling Qu lowered his voice and said, "Whoever can make King Xijue die, I will stand by that side."

This was an answer that Jingwang never thought of.But Jingwang thought for a while, and felt that this answer was not without reason.

How many people from the underground city don't hate him, Tu Shanxiong?

"In your opinion, who can make King Xijue die?" Jing Wang followed his words and asked calmly.

"Who?" Ling Qu stared at Mrs. Shao's coffin, his eyes almost burst out with fire, "Don't you and I both know? Seeing a deer is just that you can't admit it, and I don't intend to admit it."

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes and let out a long breath: "After all, this acknowledgment will change the sky."
