This deity is handsome and splits the sky

The mist dissipated, and the moon was bright for thousands of miles.The monster group has retreated, and the city wall is like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, filled with the corpses of monsters and guards.

The people spontaneously organized and cleaned up the city walls and streets with the remaining guards.

The lights in the watchtower were brightly lit, Qingfeng managed to swallow a elixir, a warmth mixed with aura entered his stomach, Qingfeng adjusted his breath for a while, and then he felt a little recovered.

Seeing Qingfeng's pale and weak face, the guard next to him couldn't help worrying: "The monster has already left, should the immortal master go to rest?"

Qingfeng shook his head slightly, and after a while, his voice was much slower than before, "Where did the city lord and the other two monks go?"

The guard frowned, "We have no right to ask the city lord, we only know that they left the city before nightfall, and we don't know exactly where they went."

Qingfeng asked: "They used to go out of the city at night?"

The guard was about to speak, but when the words came to his lips, his expression froze for a moment, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, "No, no."

Qingfeng looked at him coldly for a while, and the guard's smile froze.

At this moment, a voice came from downstairs.

"The city lord is back—"

Qingfeng said coldly, "Call them up."

The guard was stunned for a moment, feeling a bit in a dilemma.

Qingfeng raised his eyes, the dark and deep eyes were like ice, the guard's heart trembled, and he hurried down the watchtower.

The huge city gate was half open, and the city lord and Guihong Guihe rode into the gate. The city lord looked dazed, and the faces of the two behind him couldn't be better. The people in the city were even more sullen. After entering the city gate, the city gate guard closed the door silently.

Everyone was silent, with different thoughts, and the atmosphere was extremely dignified and depressing.

An official ran over in small steps, and wailed towards the city lord, "City lord, I just found a corpse in the alley, it's—"

The city lord sitting on the horse looked impatiently at the officer, and the official's voice was a little difficult, "The corpse is..."

At this moment, a voice interrupted the officer's words. A city gate guard came down from the watchtower and whispered to the city lord, "City lord, Immortal Master Qingfeng is on the watchtower."

A flash of panic flashed across the face of the city lord, and he dismounted in a hurry. The officer who was interrupted took a step forward and opened his mouth to speak. The city lord absently raised his hand and waved at the officer, "Take care of such trivial matters as dead people yourself."

After finishing speaking, Guihong and Guihe hurried up the watchtower.

Looking upstairs, just as Qingfeng put down his teacup, he heard a sad voice coming from the door——

The owner of the city came before the sound, and said mournfully: "It's all my fault, I invited the two immortal masters out of the city to check the situation outside the city gate, but I didn't expect that there was a sudden monster attack in the city, which caused such a big disaster. ACCIDENT."

"I'm bothering the immortal master again this time. How are you, immortal master? Are you injured?" The city lord rushed into the watchtower, approaching Qingfeng as if very worried, and took another step back in frightened by Qingfeng's indifferent eyes.

Gui Hong said in a shy voice, "I was supposed to be on duty tonight, but I was negligent."

Gui He looked at the city lord, then at Gui Hong, and lowered his head, "I've also failed my duty."

Qingfeng looked at the three of them coldly, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to pierce all lies, and the hearts of the three couldn't help trembling.

"You guys still refuse to tell the truth?" Qingfeng asked indifferently, "Where did you go?"

The city lord's expression froze, "What do you mean?"

Qingfeng raised his chin slightly, and signaled the guards with his eyes to lift up a corpse covered with a white cloth.

The city lord looked at the corpse covered by the white cloth, a little confused.

Qingfeng said: "Open it."

The city lord glanced at Qingfeng in confusion, but still walked forward cautiously, pinched his nose with one hand, and lifted a corner of the white cloth with the other——

The three of them opened their eyes wide in astonishment, and the city lord froze in place.

The next moment, the city lord suddenly burst into a cry of grief and despair, "My son!!!"

The white cloth was lifted to reveal He Liangjie's distorted face with wide-eyed eyes, as if he had suffered some great pain before his death. There was a big hideous hole in his heart. The wound was no longer bleeding, and the dried blood stained his chest. dark red.

Qingfeng said: "Just now when the people in the city were cleaning the city, they found this corpse in the alley."

The city lord trembled his lips, and stroked He Liangjie's face with trembling hands, trying to smooth the hideous expression on the corpse's face, but the corpse was cold and stiff, like a stone to the touch, and he couldn't smooth it out.

"Who is it! Who killed my son!"

The city lord roared sharply, with a hint of sob in his voice.

Qingfeng said: "You know who it is better than me. You knew that the death of those six people was strange last night, so you went out of the city today, but you didn't expect that person to kill your son."

"Meng Dalang, who disappeared a month ago, was either a colleague or a close friend of these six people. Lao Ma knew that Meng Dalang was dead but he didn't dare to spread it. You also tried your best to suppress this matter. These people are all your subordinates. Why did Meng Dalang disappear? I'm afraid you and the six dead people are all too clear." Speaking of this, Qingfeng's voice paused, "It's not the first time for you to go out of the city, you took the seven of them with you when you went out last time, what did you encounter outside the city?"

Speaking of this, Qingfeng said sharply: "Why did Meng Dalang and these six people die?! What are you going to do today?"

The city lord opened his mouth in a daze, but Gui Hong hurriedly stopped him, "You can't say it!"

"If you don't say anything else, that person will kill you next." Qingfeng said lightly: "Before that, I will kill you first."

"I said!" Gui He, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.

Gui He looked at Gui Hong and the city lord, his voice choked up, "The matter has come to this point, and we have no way to save it ourselves, why don't we speak up and think of a solution together."

Gui He said in a hurried voice: "A month ago, a landslide occurred on the north side of Fengcheng. Gui Hong went to investigate and said that the corner of the cave was exposed due to the landslide. It was the tomb of some high-ranking monk. We... have been Not being valued by the sect, and there is no powerful magic weapon, and this is why I became greedy for a while, "

The city lord also opened his mouth at this time, "It's all my fault. I haven't done this kind of fighting for a few years. My heart is addicted. There must be magic weapons and gold and silver in the tomb of the high-ranking monks. I confusedly called two An immortal master... We secretly summoned a few subordinates, among them was Meng Dalang, and Lao Ma had a good relationship with those officials, and I had heard that, so I wanted to follow. I thought it would be easier for me to bring one more person along .”

Qingfeng stared at Guihong and Guihe with sharp eyes and said, "Even high-ranking monks have many restrictions in the tombs, so it's fine for you to die yourself. How dare you bring mortals with you?"

Gui He seemed to be ashamed, "Ordinary monks set up caves to prevent people without cultivation from accidentally entering. They will set up an enchantment outside the cave so that they will not harm ordinary people, so we can let them explore the way with confidence. We After going there, the road to the tomb was blocked after the landslide, so I ordered a few of them to dig through the tomb.”

"The tomb was not dug through, but halfway through the digging... a bronze box was dug out." Gui He said in a lower and lower voice, "Meng Dalang who was standing next to him was immediately entangled by that thing, we It was hard to restrain the thing, but Meng Dalang's heart had been eaten and he couldn't save it. We didn't dare to dig any more and came back quickly, but Meng Dalang's death didn't dare to speak to the outside world, so everyone present at that time pretended to be dead. I don’t know, it makes people think that Meng Dalang is missing.”

Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, "What kind of bronze box?"

Gui Hong hurriedly said: "It's a bronze box with a tiger's head tattooed on it, and it's covered with a layer of charms. We didn't expect that thing to suddenly attack."

Qingfeng pondered for a moment, with a heavy expression on his face, "The bronze casket is used to suppress the great demon. Whose tomb did you dig?"

The three present were startled immediately, Gui He was stunned for a long time before stammering: "Big, big devil? We don't know, we've never seen that thing before... We didn't even go inside the tomb, we really don't know! "

Qingfeng closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "You really didn't move the seal? How could it hurt people on its own initiative?"

Before Gui He could speak, Gui Hong immediately said, "No! We didn't even touch it, maybe Meng Dalang did."

Gui He gave Gui Hong a startled look, and fell silent.

Qingfeng understood it, and didn't bother to argue at the moment, "Did you dispose of the bronze box after Meng Dalang died?"

Gui Hong said: "Yes! We put the box back to its original place and strengthened a layer of restraint before we came back. But we didn't expect that something happened yesterday. We suspect that the death of the six people was caused by the bronze box." , and then went back to look for the tomb."

"Where is the tomb?"

The city lord cried bitterly: "We can't find it! The tomb and the bronze box are gone! Now that the six people in the city have died in the same way as Meng Dalang, does it mean that the bronze box has entered the city? If we don't deal with it, the next thing is me and the two A fairy master—”

Gui Hong interrupted sharply, "It may not be that serious, even a great demon is a sealed demon, we practitioners—"

"Now my son is dead!" the city lord said angrily.

Qingfeng's sharp eyes swept across the faces of several people, "There is such a great power without breaking the seal, and the destruction of the demon-suppressing banner must be related to it. The bronze box will not run away by itself. How could it only kill these few people?"

Speaking of this, Qingfeng's thoughts turned suddenly, and he suddenly thought of the connection between the seven dead people, and immediately stood up, "The whole city arrests Meng Dongsheng! Go back to the city lord's mansion quickly."

The three of them were still at a loss, and Qingfeng had already stepped out of the door.

Qingfeng stepped out of the door, his heart was beating rapidly, he was almost out of breath, his usually calm and sharp eyes were full of panic - how dare he leave Feng Cuixue there alone!

Qingfeng rode his horse all the way and quickly returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

The servants in the mansion said inexplicably: "Just now Mr. He and that immortal master went out through the back door."

Qingfeng immediately rushed towards the direction pointed by the servant.He Liangjie's cold body was lying in the watchtower, so it was self-evident who this person was who took away the wind and snow.

The night was dark, and the wind drove the snow. He Liangjie pulled his wrist and turned a few turns in the dark alley.

He Liangjie asked casually: "Why are the hands of the immortal master so cold?"

Feng Cuixue was smiling all the way, and she chuckled lightly when she heard the words, "Don't you know that dead people's hands are cold?"

He Liangjie laughed, "Master Immortal, don't be joking... we're just ahead, let's go in quickly."

Turning the corner, there was a dark and hidden door, and He Liangjie was going to go forward with the wind and snow.

"I've always been honest." Feng Cuxue paused, took He Liangjie's hand and put it on his chest, "Try it, does your heart beat?"

A killing intent flashed in He Liangjie's eyes, and his fingertips bent slightly, as if he was about to pierce Feng Cuixue's chest the next moment.

However, He Liangjie's complexion froze soon, and through the thin layer of white clothes, Feng Zuixue's chest did not heave at all.

Feng Cuixue held He Liangjie's wrist, and said sincerely: "As an honest and kind person, I really can't bear to expose other people's lies, but we've all come here, and I decided to tell you the truth."

"Although you acted well, unfortunately, your illusion is useless to me."

Feng Qixue flipped his palm, and a talisman was attached to He Liangjie's wrist. The moment the talisman touched He Liangjie let out a scream, and the devilish energy was forced out of his body, and was crushed by the power of the talisman.

After the illusion disappeared, Dongsheng's astonished face was reflected in Feng Zuixue's clear pupils.

"In my eyes, you have always looked like this." Feng Cuixue regretted.
