MTL - The Sword Named No Way Out-Chapter 38
"I really have nothing to do with this matter, all the immortal friends!"
"..."
Ying Kai lowered the hand that was holding the corner of his brow, and his expression seemed to be even more tired: "Chengfeng, you know that the Julu Changsun family's three generations of grandson mainly rely on the unparalleled military personnel, right? "
Changsun Chengfeng added sincerity: "I know."
"You also know that only you can control soldiers in this world, because only the sons of the eldest grandson's family have the dual souls necessary for refining soldiers, right?"
Changsun Chengfeng confided: "I know better."
Ying Kai pointed to the side. On the coffee table between him and Xu Shuangce, there was a huge thousand-year-old black ice brick, and the cool air supported the stainless steel plate on the ice brick. The plate was covered with hoarfrost, solidly frozen with a blood thread thinner than silk and glowing with a faint red glow.
That was the soldier silk extracted from the corpse of Fahua Immortal Venerable.
Ying Kai asked, "Then what else do you want to say to me?"
The officers and soldiers are not afraid of water and fire, and are invulnerable to all poisons. Ordinary fairy swords are invulnerable to swords and guns. The manufacturing materials and mechanism maps of soldiers have always been secrets passed down from generation to generation by the eldest grandson family, and only one necessity is well known-soldier silk.
Ordinary puppet silk is insidious and rare, but if it is compared with soldier silk, it is like comparing ordinary Jindan monks with Ying Kai and Xu Shuangce, they are completely different.
I don't know how many alchemy monks in the world dream of refining a soldier thread, but it is futile after all, because to refine a soldier thread, one must meet one condition, the dual spirit of yin and yang.
Just like it is impossible for a person to grow two heads, even great masters like Ying Kai and Xu Shuangce cannot cultivate two primordial spirits out of thin air, but the son of the eldest grandson's family is born with this talent. During the refining process, Juzong kept the Yang Yuanshen himself, and injected the Yin Yuanshen into every inch of the soldiers. Therefore, every soldier in the mechanism is connected with Juzong's Yuanshen, and they can protect themselves spontaneously without manipulation. host. If the Juzong is alive, the soldiers will be there, and if the Juzong is dead, the soldiers will die. Juzong didn't need to expend too much spiritual power to control the puppets through the soldiers' threads, he could move his mind however he wanted.
There is no doubt that Xu Shuangce has drawn a certain soldier from the "Xiang Xiaoyuan" spiritual vein. Besides Changsun Chengfeng, who else can control this vicious and powerful weapon?
The four great masters looked at Juzong from four different directions, and even Yu Chirui, who was cracking peanuts, raised his eyelids and stared at him coldly.
"..."
The eldest grandson Chengfeng sat stiffly for a long while, finally sighed, and said: "I have no grudges with Fahua Immortal Venerable in the past, and I have no enmity in recent days. We even rarely meet each other. There is really no reason to go to such lengths to insult his immortal body."
He paused, and then said with difficulty: "But... if I insist on finding a suspect, I'm not without doubts in my heart."
Yu Chirui immediately asked, "Who?"
Changsun Chengfeng didn't answer immediately, but stood up and bowed deeply to Ying Kai.
"Leader Ying, the soldiers are indeed unique to our Julu Changsun family, and we cannot deny them. But this matter is no small matter. Please give me seven days to catch the real culprit. After seven days, I will personally go to Daishan to punish Shu Palace and plead guilty. Escape. May I?"
The meaning in these words is clear that he has already made some kind of determination to burn the boat. Ying Kai frowned, "Who do you doubt?"
Changsun Chengfeng maintained that posture of bowing his head and bowing his head, but his attitude did not waver: "We will see in seven days."
"..."
One sect, two reverences and three sects, except for the deceased Fahua Immortal Venerable, only Xu Shuangce, Ying Kai and Yu Chirui are living in the Mahayana realm. Mu Duozhu has extremely deep qualifications and the prestige of the golden boat, and he has more weight than Changsun Chengfeng.
The eldest grandson Chengfeng has a gentle personality, is easygoing, and often laughs and mingles with the juniors, so he always gives people the illusion that he is relatively weak and easy to talk to—but in fact this weakness is limited to the other four people in the class. After all, he is one of the three sects, and the eldest grandson's family is also one of the six families. No matter what his status is, he is second to none, so he cannot be easily offended.
Several masters in the hall looked at each other, Ying Kai frowned and thought for a moment, knowing that there was no possibility of him absconding in fear of crime, his attitude relaxed a bit: "In this case..."
At this time, only Xu Shuangce's voice sounded from the side:
"You once had a brother."
Juzong has a younger brother?
Before everyone could react, Mu Duozhu blurted out, "Could it be the one in the folk tales?"
"..."
"..."
"Last time when I went to Yanchun Terrace, I ran into Liu Xuzhi listening to the folk opera troupe rehearsing the script of poisoning his own brother and robbing his sister-in-law." Mu Duozhu quickly picked up the tea cup to cover half of his face, under the shocked gaze of Changsun Chengfeng The voice is getting smaller and smaller: "The plot is twists and turns, the feelings are sincere, and it is quite... tear-jerking."
There was a dead silence in the hall, Yu Chirui forgot to knock the peanuts to his mouth, and looked up and down at Changsun Chengfeng with a brand-new eyesight that would make him stand out in three days.
"..." Ju Zong opened his mouth several times before he said firmly: "I did have a brother, but the folk story is purely fictional!"
Ying Kai: "Ahem!"
Ying Kai cleared his throat several times, took a sip from the teacup, and then raised his head and said, "Brother Mu doesn't know that the second son of the eldest grandson's family was not killed by Juzong. He committed a serious crime as early as seventeen years ago. He was exiled to the extremely cold place on the northern ice sheet years ago, and has never been heard from since then."
The extremely cold place, the restricted area of life, since ancient times, there has never been any record of any monk walking out of it alive. Therefore, exile on the ice sheet is actually tantamount to never returning, which is only slightly better than execution.
Mu Duozhu was surprised: "What did he do?"
Changsun Chengfeng actually almost turned the situation back just now, but Xu Shuangce's one word would turn the situation back again. It is really hard for him to expose his family ugliness right now, he was silent for a long time in the eyes of everyone, and then he had to sigh: "This son follows his mother's surname, Du, and his name is Du Kaixun."
"Du Kaixun is much younger than me. Because his mother died young and his father was not strict in discipline, he was extremely cold-blooded and distorted since he was a child. He used to abuse Bai...a disciple in his family with extremely cruel methods. When he was sent to the punishment institution, he even In front of everyone, he used spells and words to force this disciple to cut his own heart, and almost succeeded. Afterwards, he was imprisoned in the Punishment Institute. Originally, he was expected to change his mind, but he revealed his true nature within two months. Secretly read the forbidden book "The Great Curse of Yin and Yang Chaos", learned a kind of poison from the underworld, and poured it into the tea of Fahua Immortal Venerable, wanting to... want to cut off the right eye of the Immortal Venerable."
Since this incident happened nearly seventeen years ago, it should be not long before Gong Wei died on the immortal platform. Yu Chirui immediately asked, "Why don't I know?"
Changsun Chengfeng said: "I'm really ashamed, this matter was extremely secret back then. Because it involved a family, Fahua Immortal Venerable was magnanimous and didn't make it public, and only reported it to the leader of the alliance."
He paused, and his tone was cold when he spoke again: "Actually, according to my opinion, this evil animal is better than dead. The leader should also agree to hand him back to me to deal with at will. But Xianzun is still too kind. , To think that this little **** has not yet reached the crown, he is only sentenced to be exiled to the snowy plains of northern Xinjiang, and he will not be allowed to return to Shenzhou for half a step."
"Where is he now?" Yu Chirui asked.
Changsun Chengfeng said: "I don't know. Even you and I may not dare to set foot in the extremely cold snow region of the northern border, and since ancient times, I have never heard of anyone coming back alive. Therefore, I have always regarded him as dead. , have never tried to find it in seventeen years."
Ying Kai pondered for a moment, then asked: "Since that's the case, how can you be sure that what happened today has something to do with Du Kaixun?"
The eldest grandson Chengfeng's expression seemed quite difficult to express. After half a cup of tea was silent, he gritted his teeth and said: "Du Kaixun... talent is rare in the world."
"My father was nearly forty years old when he learned to use the dual spirit to forge soldiers. I inherited the teachings of my family at the age of twenty-six."
"When Du Kaixun was eighteen years old, he forged the first soldier thread in his life, and used it to make a powerful and perfect mechanical soldier. Xuedu was trampled underfoot and burned to the ground, and because of this, several old seniors in the family were almost **** off."
Most of the ugliness of the family is covered up with a bed of brocade, and I wish I could cover it as tightly as possible. So everyone heard it for the first time today, and the hall was eerily quiet for a while.
"After this incident, I had to order that Du Kaixun was strictly prohibited from making any soldiers, and at the same time, I personally sealed the Yin Yuanshen that he could use to gather soldiers. I wanted to wait for him to grow up and change his mind before thinking about it." Unlocking the restriction, who knows that in the second year he committed a series of appalling felonies such as abusing his family's disciples and poisoning Fahua Immortal Venerable. This man is insane and incurable. It’s too much of a loss of compassion.”
Changsun Chengfeng bowed again. He has a very gentle and handsome face, always with a three-point smile on his face, but now he is terribly serious:
"The matter of the soldiers in Dingxianling must be related to Du Kaixun. No matter how this person escaped from the extremely cold place and returned to the Central Plains to cause chaos, this time I will definitely capture him with my own hands and send him to Mount Dai to punish this heinous crime." Hand over the lord to the lord!"
The room was silent for a while.
Ying Kai stared at the eldest grandson Chengfeng, seemed to ponder for a long time, and finally said slowly: "Chengfeng, today, the next sect, two sects and three sects, are all in this hall. If you are willing to stand in front of all of us I swear to my face that if Du Kaixun will be captured within seven days and brought to us with his own hands..."
At this time, there was only a light ding, and Xu Shuangce, who was sitting in the first seat, put down the teacup, and finally said the second sentence after he walked into this door:
"Don't bother, he's dead."
"..."
Even Ying Kai was stunned, Changsun Chengfeng subconsciously asked: "What?"
There was no emotion in Xu Shuangce's dark eyes, and his tone was calm and calm, as if he was stating an unimportant past event: "Seventeen years ago, when I heard about the poisoning and dissection, I chased him thousands of miles away. In an extremely cold place, he was personally killed on a glacier."
"The body is separated, and the sword pierces the heart. It's dead."
