28,28 Soul Sweeping Cloud Exhibition(1/2)
There was a chaos in front of the Kaifeng Mansion. Zhai Yue died in broad daylight. The problem of turning into salt was not solved yet. This man caught fire again.
The fire was so burning that even Lin Yehuo couldn't extinguish it with his windless palm. Bai Yutang followed up with a palm strike, and Zhai Yue's body was completely covered in ice, but the fire was still burning, and the color of the flame was also in the ice. The layer inside turned into a strange bright yellow.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's eyes reflected the firelight, and they were also full of doubts.
Gongsun stretched out his hand to touch his chin and said "hmm".
Zhao Pu wanted to ask Gongsun if he had discovered anything, but before he could say anything, the disciples of Sanyuzhai went crazy and the crowd was extremely confused, especially after someone shouted "Maoshan Secret Technique" just now, Maoshan Pi instantly became the target of public criticism.
The disciples of March Zhai were already dissatisfied because their leader Kong Yue was arrested, and then looking at their master who had turned into ashes, all their old sorrows and new hatreds suddenly came together.
There were also people from other sects watching, and it was not known if there was someone with evil intentions who was instigating this. While pointing the finger at the Maoshan sect, they were also complaining that the Kaifeng government was shielding the Maoshan sect.
Fortunately, Ouyang Shaozheng's Imperial City Army separated the crowd, so there was no conflict.
There is a buffer from the Imperial City Army, and the people of Kaifeng have seen a lot of the world. They know that once the Imperial City Army is dispatched, it is better to disperse as soon as possible, so the number of passers-by onlookers is gradually decreasing.
Zhao Pu winked at Ouyang Shaozheng.
Ouyang is quite experienced in this kind of situation and knows that someone in the crowd must be making trouble. If he catches the person, he will have a clue.
Ouyang sat on his horse and observed suspicious characters in the crowd. On the surrounding rooftops, the shadow guards also acted separately.
Bai Yutang took a few steps back and asked Chen Tong, who was standing on the steps in a daze, "Senior, isn't this your Maoshan secret technique?"
Chen Tong shook his head, "Oh, Fifth Master, Maoshan's secret technique can only burn paper people, how can it be possible to burn real people?!"
"Then why is there a feud between Yue Zhai and your Maoshan sect?" Lin Yehuo also came over and asked.
"Yuyue Zhai was not a sect from the Western Regions originally, but a fellow sect that was driven out of the Central Plains by the Maoshan sect." Chen Tong had no choice but to explain to everyone as simply as possible, "To put it simply, the two sects fought each other for power and profit, and the Zhaiyue sect He couldn't defeat my senior brother Tao Ming's faction, so he became obsessed with it and killed many innocent passers-by in an attempt to frame my senior brother... but my senior brother discovered the matter."
Hearing this, Bai Yutang thought of the scene that the fourth son had seen before. It should be that scene...
"My senior brother made a deal with Zhai Yue. As long as Zhai Yue leaves the Central Plains Wulin, his actions will not be made public." Chen Tong concluded. "The result is that Zhai Yue disappears and goes to the Western Regions to establish During the third month of Ramadan, the Maoshan sect also became anonymous and began to have no contact with the martial arts in the Central Plains."
After Bai Yutang and Lin Yehuo heard this, they both frowned.
Xiao Liangzi, who had been listening nearby, looked up and asked, "The murderer was Zhai Yue! Why didn't you make the crime public and let him die? Why did you let him go?"
Lin Yehuo nodded, "I also feel that the Maoshan Sect seems to be at a disadvantage in this transaction!"
"Are there any other conditions?" Bai Yutang asked Chen Tong.
Chen Tong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head helplessly, "I basically don't ask anything about the Maoshan sect. It's all my senior brother who has the final say. It was my senior brother who made the decision back then..."
While they were talking, another group of Imperial City troops also arrived. Seeing that there were too many officers and soldiers, the people in the rivers and lakes glanced at each other and dispersed temporarily, leaving only the few apprentices of Yue Sanzhai, kneeling there.
Weep for their master.
Zhan Zhao was standing not far away, while Gongsun frowned and studied the frozen humanoid ashes on the ground.
Zhe Ying came down from the roof and reported back to Zhao Pu, "Your Majesty, we caught a few people."
Zhao Pu nodded and motioned for him to bring someone to show Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao followed Zhe Ying towards the direction of the Imperial City Army. When passing by the young disciples, Zhan Zhao suddenly stopped.
Seeing Zhan Zhao standing next to him, several of the young apprentices from March Zhai raised their heads to look at him, with a hint of hatred in their eyes.
Zhan Zhao could naturally understand that in Yue Zhai's view, it was the Maoshan sect that killed their master, and Kaifeng Prefecture was the one who protected the Maoshan sect.
At this time, there were several Jianghu people in the distance waving to these young disciples, seeming to indicate that they should follow.
Just as the few apprentices were about to stand up, Zhan Zhao said, "It's safest to stay in Kaifeng Mansion."
Several people were stunned for a moment, then Zhan Zhao continued, "Your master asked me to protect your safety before he died."
The disciples of Sanyuzhai looked at each other and looked at Zhan Zhao uncertainly, their eyes full of distrust.
Zhan Zhao pointed to the gate of Kaifeng Mansion, "You enter that door, and I will protect your safety until the real culprit is caught."
"Why should we believe you?"
"That's right, you might be in the same group as the Maoshan faction..."
"You were the one who caught our leader..."
Several young disciples of the Maoshan sect dared to talk to Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao didn't say anything. When they finished speaking, he pointed at the Jianghu people in the distance.
When several Jianghu people saw Zhan Zhao pointing at them, they quickly turned around and left.
"Even if there is even the slightest chance of endangering yourself, you will turn around and leave. This kind of person is unreliable." Zhan Zhao said unhurriedly, "Only true relatives will care about you before they die."
The disciples in March stopped talking.
"If you don't believe me, you should at least believe in your master." Zhan Zhao waved to them gently, meaning - quickly enter Kaifeng Mansion.
Several people hesitated for a moment, and finally ran up the steps.
At the gate of Kaifeng Mansion, Dynasty Mahan led several disciples in first, and Gongsun commanded people to carefully put away Zhai Yue's body.
Zhe Ying, who was waiting for Zhan Zhao on the side, felt some respect in his heart inexplicably at this moment. In fact, Zhan Zhao had no need to take care of the disciples of San Yue Zhai, but he still had to take care of them. After all, it was because of Zhai Yue's entrustment before his death.
, or the sad tears of a few young disciples. But helping people in desperate situations and protecting the weak seems to be a habit of Zhan Zhao.
Watching the San Yunzhai disciples running into the Bai Yutang of Kaifeng Mansion, I glanced at the huge injustice drum on the high steps, and smiled slightly - the world has seen too much of Zhan Zhao's side of punishing evil and eliminating traitors, and felt that
This is chivalry. But in fact, the real reason why Zhan Zhaohui stayed in Kaifeng Mansion is actually the same as the one who complained about injustice. Helping people in desperate situations and protecting the weak and helpless people is the chivalry in Zhan Zhao's heart.
The Fifth Master stared at Zhan Zhao, who followed Zhe Ying into the Imperial City Army, and unexpectedly someone poked his cheek.
The fifth master was stunned, turned his face, and was pinched on the cheek.
Who is so bold and dares to pinch Bai Yutang's face? Besides Zhan Zhao, it is naturally Tianzun.
Tianzun wandered out at some point, covering his mouth and pinching Bai Yutang's face with a sullen smile, "Oh, when will your facial paralysis be cured? Your smile lines are all showing up! There are some diseases that even Gongsun cannot cure, but Zhan Zhao can't.
Can it be cured? The cat demon is invincible!"
The fifth master patted his hand speechlessly.
Tianzun looked around with his hands behind his back and asked him, "I heard that Zhaiyue died. Where is he? Who killed him?"
Bai Yutang stretched out his hand and pointed to his side.
Two shadow guards happened to be passing by carrying the frozen corpse of Zhai Yue... Fortunately, Bai Yutang froze the ashes, otherwise they would probably be gone if the wind blew.
Tianzun looked down and was startled, "Hey, what is this?"
"Pick the moon."
Bai Yutang didn't speak, but Gongsun came up from nowhere, handed the little boy in his arms to Bai Yutang, took Tianzun's arm aside and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever seen this kind of situation before..."
Bai Yutang and Xiao Sizi looked at each other and leaned in to listen.
Gongsun described to Tianzun in detail the process of picking the moon and setting it on fire.
After Tianzun heard this, he looked at Gongsun and then at Bai Yutang.
Gongsun and Bai Yutang both looked at Tianzun - how is it? Do you know?
Tianzun stretched out a finger and shook it, "Well..."
Bai Yutang and Gongsun are anxious - huh?
"Hmm...it seems..." Tianzun crossed his arms and hummed for a while, clapped his hands, then turned around and ran away from Feng Mansion.
Gongsun blinked and reached out to take his son from Bai Yutang's hand. Both father and son turned to look at Bai Yutang - What happened to your master?
The Fifth Master was also speechless. The Demon King of Daring Love is back, and his memory hasn’t improved either... It’s unreliable or not.
"But he may remember something."
The fifth master asked Gongsun to follow him and take a look. His master might not have remembered to go in to ask Yin Hou.
As soon as Gongsun left, Bai Yutang went to the Imperial City Army to find Zhan Zhao.
At this moment, Zhan Zhao just asked a few people who were arrested. Zhao Pu's group of shadow guards are still very experienced. Those who took the lead in provoking trouble were all arrested. They were just ordinary gangsters, and they were not locals.
They took money and came to do something. As for who gave them the money, the answer they got was a bit subtle.
When Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao lowering his head and thinking silently, he looked at Zhe Ying.
Zheying told him in a low voice, "They said that the person who asked them to shout Maoshan's secret technique before going out was a Taoist priest."
"Taoist priest? What does he look like?"
"It is said that he is an old man with white hair and a fairy-like appearance. He is wearing a gray robe and holding a very strange-style fly whisk."
"The style is very weird?" Bai Yutang asked, "What does it look like?"
"The whisk is made by Lao Yin, and there are two skulls on both ends, which is very elegant." Zhe Ying described it based on the answers of several people.
Bai Yutang's expression at this moment was almost the same as Zhan Zhao's.
Zhan Zhao also raised his head, and the two looked at each other.
"What's wrong with the whisk?" Zhe Ying didn't understand.
"Isn't that the legendary soul-sweeping Yunzhan?" Lin Yehuo also came over, with a look of shock on his face.
"What is Soul Sweeping Cloud Exhibition?" Ouyang Shaozheng, who had finally arranged the Imperial City Army, was probably hungry, so he bought a steamed bun on the street and asked while gnawing on it.
