"The markings on the map are different from the divination results?" Shangguan Jin's expression also became solemn, "Fellow Daoist Gu, what do you think is the cause of this? Is there an error in the information provided by Wu Qianhu?"< /p>
"Two possibilities," Gu Xu stretched out two fingers and said calmly, "First, as you said, Wu Qianhu provided us with wrong information; second, in There are more powerful ghosts in the habitat of the 'Looted People', who have the ability to interfere with the results of my divination.
"However, the 'fierce god' level Kong Xuan Sanren has the ability to shield the leader. The power of your lord's secret deduction technique still cannot affect the results of my divination on Yishan Mountain; moreover, in my memory, there has never been a ghost as powerful as Kongxuan Sanren in the area near Anshun Mansion.
"So, we can directly rule out the second possibility."
"Not even Kongxuan Sanren can affect your divination results?" Shangguan Jin couldn't help being surprised. The ground sighed.
As the unnamed disciple and capable assistant of Luo Chuan, the head of the Exorcist Department, she works by his side every day, so she naturally knows the terrifying aspects of Luo Si’s Shouting skills.
Just two years ago, she had witnessed Luo Sishou sitting in the capital, accurately deducing a "fierce god" level battle thousands of miles away, including the duration, casualties The number of people and so on are not the slightest difference from the real situation.
Luo Sishou has always said in a humble manner that the reason why he has the ability to see everything in the world is because the "Zhongtian Arctic Ziwei Emperor" with great supernatural powers lent him his eyes. .
The Great Emperor Ziwei is in charge of the latitude and longitude of the heaven and earth. He governs the stars above and Fengdu below. Nothing that happens in the world can escape his perception. Luo Sishou himself was just lucky enough to get it. A little insignificant gift from Emperor Ziwei.
However, Kongxuan Sanren was able to use the secret shielding technique to keep Luo Sishou in the dark, making him ignorant of the changes that occurred in Qingzhou Mansion.
As far as Shangguan Jin knows, divination is just a hobby for Gu Xu - he has been exposed to divination for less than a year and has not spent too much time studying it.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to have the ability to break the Kongxuan Sanren Heavenly Secret Shielding Technique.
But he was able to get the correct divination results under such circumstances.
Is this because he is gifted in this area, or is it because he has been favored by God?
Shangguan Jin couldn’t understand.
After hearing her question, Gu Xu smiled and responded: "Yes, I was also surprised at the time."
He paused for a moment and then continued: "So, now I'm very curious as to why the information on this map is wrong...whether it is unintentional or intentional."
At this moment, Gu Xu's eyes fell on the corner of the map. , and saw the words "Anshun Mansion" marked there, as well as a date.
His GodLove suddenly became as cold as ice.
"What's the matter, Fellow Daoist Gu?" Shangguan Jin keenly caught the change in his expression.
"The date marked on the map is the sixth day of May in the eleventh year of Xingde. If nothing else, it should be the day when this map was drawn," Gu Xu said in a deep voice, "But you can clearly It can be seen that the map has begun to become yellowed and worn--this proves that a long time has passed since the map was completed.
"In the file I remember, Wen Yannian. This official, together with two of his subordinates, died in the line of duty on March 16, the twelfth year of Xingde.
“The content of the mission is not clearly stated in the file. I don’t know which mission he died for.
“However, the illusion in this pot is full of green trees. The wind is strong, the temperature is pleasant during the day, and the nights are slightly cool, which is undoubtedly the characteristics of spring.
"The full moon in the sky also indicates that it is the middle of the month.
"In addition, as you said before, the difficulty of this 'Review Pot' test is It will be very high.
"So I suspect that the mission we are performing is the one that led to the unfortunate sacrifice of Wen Yannian and his subordinates."
At this point, Gu Xu raised his head , looked into Shangguan Jin's eyes: "Fellow Taoist Shangguan, do you still remember the poem carved on the jade talisman?"
Shangguan Jin pondered for a moment and responded: "'The human heart is only an inch long, day and night. The storm is rising... Do you want to say that our real enemy in this trial may not be a ghost, but a human being? For example, Wu Qianhu of Anshun Mansion deliberately gave Wen Yannian wrong information for this purpose? Want to kill Wen Yannian and his subordinates with the help of ghosts?"
Shangguan Jin is worthy of being trusted by Chief Luo. Gu Xu only gave a brief reminder, and she quickly made such an inference.
"But the question is...why did he do this?" Shangguan Jin frowned slightly again.
"I think our request for this trial is probably to find out the truth behind this incident." Gu Xu said lightly.
"Then what should we do now?" Shangguan Jin then asked, "Should we kill the group of 'lost people' according to the original plan, or should we return to the Yamen first and ask Wu Qianhu "Why are the markings on the map wrong?"
Maybe it's because Gu Xu is the leader of the two at this time, or maybe it's because of the amazing insight Gu Xu showed just now, Shangguan Jin was unknowingly Time regarded him as the one who made the decision.
"Let us first go to the southwest and kill those 'lost people' according to the results of the divination," Gu Xu thought for a moment and said, "Then we will go to the north according to the map and have a look. What kind of danger lurks there?
“At that time, Wen Yannian was only at the third level of cultivation, and his two subordinates were only at the second level, and they had no ability to protect themselves in the face of powerful ghosts. . But if it were the few of us, as long as we didn’t encounter any ‘evil’God-level ghosts and monsters are all capable of fighting. "
"Only the third level of cultivation..." Shangguan Jin repeated Gu Xu's words in her mind, and found it very interesting. After all, Gu Xu himself only had the third level.
p>But then she thought about it. Gu Xu had defeated more than one fourth-level monk in the Lantern Festival night competition. When he was in Qingzhou Mansion, he even escaped death in front of the fierce god... He The real strength should far exceed that of ordinary third-level monks.
"Have you two finished discussing it? Next to him, Chu Fengge leaned against a big tree, folded his hands on his chest, and said in an impatient tone, "After the discussion, let's set off quickly. Don't waste time here!" "
Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin glanced at him in unison, looking at him like a fool, and then looked at each other: "Let's go! "
Immediately, they used the "Meteor Walking on the Moon" movement technique, flying through the dense mountain forest like ghosts.
"Hey, wait! "Chu Fengge was stunned for a second. When he saw the figures of Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin disappearing in an instant, he also used his footwork to catch up in a hurry.
Therefore, there was only one convenience left in this place. The big golden net, and the heads of dozens of "lost people" - they rolled around in the net, with ferocious expressions, making unwilling neighing sounds, but they could not escape.
... ...
A few minutes later, they arrived at the settlement of the "Dead Man"
This is a small village
In. On the gentle hillside, there were blue-gray brick houses, as silent as a sleeping one. They looked no different from human villages.
However, Gu Xu noticed that the doors of these houses were locked. , but all the windows were open.
They came to the door of the nearest brick house
Shangguan Jin chanted a spell. The door lock soon glowed with golden light, and then there was a bang, and the door suddenly opened.
Soon, they entered the house. I saw a strange scene in the bedroom of this house -
A woman was lying on the bed, with only a body and no head, and there was no blood flowing out of her neck.
"This is the body of the 'Dead Man'. "
As Gu Xu spoke, he took out a "Tai Shang Arctic Demon Suppressing and Demon Killing Talisman" from his pocket and prepared to throw it towards the bed.
But Chu Feng But Ge moved faster than him.
A dazzling starlight appeared in his hand, and then turned into a blazing fire of true energy, drowning the headless woman.
In an instant, the headless woman turned into ashes.
Seeing Chu Fengge's behavior, Gu Xu shook his head helplessly.
Because he felt that in Chu. Feng Sing's heart, which is like a mass of real essence, contains extremely powerful power, enough to destroy hundreds of "lost people" in an instant.” body.
Chu Fengge’s actions at this time were simply killing a chicken with a knife.
“Perhaps, this guy just wants to show off his ability as a fifth-level monk in front of me. Dominate your true energy! "Gu Xu silently guessed in his mind.
Then, they went to other houses in the same way and destroyed the bodies of the remaining "lost people" one by one.
Chu Fengge yawned while setting fire to the corpse.
He was expecting a fierce battle here, which would give him the opportunity to show off his skills and enjoy the surprise of Gu Xu and Shangguan Jin.
However, what they did after arriving at their destination was simple and boring.
This made Chu Fengge feel deeply disappointed. >In addition, after they killed the "Dead Man", the trial did not end, and Luo Sishou did not release them from the "Review Pot"
This obviously confirmed what they just said. Guess - the "Looted People" are not the final enemy of this trial.
"The 'Looted People' have been solved," at this time, Gu Xu took out the map and said calmly, " Next, we should go to the place marked by Wu Qianhu.
"I want to see what is hidden there."
Hearing his words, Chu Fengge and Shangguan Jin both clenched their iron swords tightly. .
The former is eager to try, with a look of anticipation in his eyes; the latter has a solemn expression, with slightly dilated pupils, reflecting the silver full moon, like a hunting wild cat.
