Jiangshan Fengwuzhi

Chapter 221 Corpse
The door of the morgue was pushed open, and Yin Jinggeng, Gu Jingnian and others walked in, walked to the side of the platform and looked at the corpse on it.

That's Bai Yuze.

He was no longer as tall and strong as before, and looked very shriveled and thin, but strangely, Gu Jingnian could still recognize him.

There was clearly no blood under the skin, but it seemed to be solidified and not completely withered.

Gu Jingnian reached out and touched it; it was hard.

The feel was familiar, just like how he had been refined in Yan's belly.

He lifted the white cloth covering the body, bent down and took a closer look. He found a tiny red particle on the wound on the chest and put it on his finger to ponder it.

Behind Gu Jingnian, Yin Jinggeng turned his head and looked at the ground.

The floor of the morgue was made of lacquered wood, covered with a thin layer of dust.

In the sunlight, several footprints extended from outside the door. They were left by him and Gu Jingnian, and there were the patterns of their soles on them.

But just above the footprints, there were suddenly some other traces, as if someone had stepped on them barefoot.

"Show up!"

Yin Jinggeng suddenly reached out and grabbed it.

He missed his target, and a few more footprints appeared on the ground as he retreated towards the door.

Yin Jinggeng had been gathering strength. He waved his hand, raising a gust of wind that blew dust towards the door, and a human figure was faintly outlined in the dust.

"Yingyao, set fire." Gu Jingnian said.

Ying Yao, who was guarding outside the door, immediately raised her hand, and a faint glow of fire appeared in her palm.

The next moment, a voice suddenly sounded, the tone was flat and helpless, but with a mature feminine tone.

"Okay, I'll show myself. Your Highness, let me put on some clothes."

Ying Yao stopped upon hearing this.

I saw the curtain in the morgue move and fall down, forming a human figure in the air.

Afterwards, a person appeared from behind the curtain. It was Yu Moxian.

She wore a simple piece of yellow cloth, which made her look quite pretty and decent.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Yu Moxian said.

"Not only did you lie to me, you even dared to follow me." Yin Jinggeng looked grim, "Did you hear my conversation with Gu Jingnian?"

Yu Moxian did not deny it, but said: "Your Highness may have misunderstood His Majesty and Lord Qu. I cannot elaborate on the details, but they are playing a big game."

Yin Jinggeng sneered slightly and said, "Really?"

Yu Moxian said: "I have absolutely no ill will towards Your Highness, otherwise I will just report the truth, and there is no need to come here to persuade Your Highness."

Yin Jinggeng asked: "Do you think you can really report it?"

Yu Moxian said: "Your Highness, just trust me and Lord Qu. Lord Qu's plan is for the sake of Yong State. Please pretend that you know nothing for the time being and do not interfere."

"I have believed you too many times, and what happened? I was deceived again and again."

"Mr. Qu was once your teacher. If he was only considering his own future, why would he hide it from you?"

"That's enough. Now do it my way."

Yin Jinggeng had long known that Yu Moxian was the person left behind by Qu Jizhi in Lianzhou City. After talking with Gu Jingnian just now, he made arrangements to capture Yu Moxian and personally led her to the morgue.

At this moment, he waved his hand, and his confidant came in, locked Yu Moxian with shackles, and took her away.

"Now, we don't have any spies around us." Yin Jinggeng then talked to Gu Jingnian about his plan, "I plan to send a letter in the name of Yu Moxian to recall Qu Jizhi first."

Hearing this, Gu Jingnian glanced at Pei Nian and did not say anything to stop him from continuing.

Yin Jinggeng summoned a few more of his confidants and asked, "Have you found the means by which Yu Moxian and Qu Jizhi communicated?"

--------

It was a large piece of jade, uncarved, but with obvious signs of artificial cutting on one side.

It was placed neatly on a mahogany box when it suddenly made a sound.

"Ting-ting-ting-ting-ting."

Qu Jizhi, who was sitting nearby drawing a map, raised his head, put his ear close to the jade, and listened for a long while.

There were quite a few people standing around him.

Ren Shuangfei was wrapped in a bandage, with ointment on his forehead, and his face was full of unhappiness. He asked, "What do you mean? Any news?"

Qu Jizhi said: "Gu Jingnian has brought Yingyao back to Lianzhou. Your Highness plans to take them to the Abyss."

He sighed before speaking the last sentence.

"Besides, His Highness may be planning to deal with us."

Ren Shuangfei was quite disdainful when he heard this, and said, "Really? I'm scared to death."

Qu Jizhi looked around at everyone and said solemnly, "If you want to surrender, Yong State can be handed over. But there is one condition, you must not hurt His Highness, otherwise, you will never leave Yong State alive."

"Okay." Ren Shuangfei also sat there, put his feet on the mahogany box, and said, "If you are sure that Lord Yong does not want to use us to get rid of this ambitious prince, I don't care."

Qu Jizhi looked displeased and was about to speak.

Long Minzhi raised her hand to stop their quarrel and said, "I agree to the conditions, Yingyao will be mine."

"I didn't say no." Ren Shuangfei said, "Do you want to keep it all for yourself?"

"It's too noisy. Let's talk about it later."

As soon as Shen Jichi opened his mouth, everyone fell silent.

He is indeed the strongest among them all, and his power is unfathomable. Now no one can deny his strength.

I just don't know if this is his real body or just a shadow.

At this time, someone else came over. It was the sloppy-looking Fox Bayichi.

"How is it?"

A group of experts turned around and asked this sloppy man of average strength.

Fox Bayi held a strange octagonal plate in his hand, walked slowly to the front of the crowd, and sighed: "I'm so tired, do you have any wine?"

Soon, a wine bag was handed to Hu Bayi. He tilted his head back and gulped down the wine for a long time. Only then did he burp comfortably until there was not a drop left.

"What's the matter?" Ren Shuangfei asked impatiently.

"It's hard to find." Fox Bayi said, "I have searched for countless strange people in my life, but this is the most difficult and dangerous one. I almost died in that abyss just now."

"So?" Ren Shuangfei asked, "Did you find it?"

Fox Bayi smiled slightly but said nothing.

Shen Jichi said: "Ten thousand taels of gold."

"My Lord, just do it!"

Hu Bayi praised him highly, bowed to Shen Jichi with a smile, and looked at Qu Jizhi.

Qu Jizhi sighed, nodded, and said, "I will also add another ten thousand taels of gold."

"Miss Hu?" Hu Bayi asked again.

Hu Jingnan said: "Yan State can pay us with silk of equal value."

Ren Shuangfei cursed when he saw this and said, "Add more, tell me if you found it."

"Found it." Seeing that the reward had been increased, Fox Eight stopped keeping the secret and turned around, pointing to the abyss not far away, and said, "The body is indeed at the bottom of the abyss."

"With just this one sentence, you dare to act pretentiously in front of me?"

"Mr. Ren knows that the body is in the abyss, but can he find its exact location? If it weren't for me..."

Ren Shuangfei said, "I understand. I'll need your money. Just tell me where the body is."

Fox Bayi raised his hand again and pointed. This time, he pointed at a high mountain in the sky. The mountain was towering into the clouds, and there was snow on the top.

"If my guess is correct, on that day, Longxushui flew high into the sky to fight with Pu's father, but was smashed down by Pu's halberd, which smashed through the mountain and into the ground thousands of miles away."

This was a very exaggerated statement, but no one questioned it. They just looked up at the mountains in the distance in a daze.

Fox Bayi swallowed his breath and said with emotion: "If I hadn't found out in person, I wouldn't have believed it. The strength of Park's father and Longxushui are extremely terrifying. Only such people are worth all the trouble to find and worth such a high reward, right?"

"Go on, then what?"

"Father Park smashed the dragon's beard water into the ground, then raised his halberd and chopped it down hard, splitting the ground and trying to kill the dragon's beard water."

Ren Shuangfei said: "But that man said that the abyss was split by him."

"That's right." Fox Eight said, "This abyss was split twice. You can see it by looking at the fault of the waterfall. It should be very obvious if you fly up to the sky. The giant halberd split a crack that is hundreds of miles long, but there is an even deeper crack below. Longxushui's body is below."

"What do you mean?"

Hu Ba Yi said: "Long Xu Shui was not killed by Park's father. At that time, the two of them should have been injured. Park's father split the ground with his halberd, but he did not kill Long Xu Shui who was smashed into the ground. Someone else stabbed him with the knife."

Ren Shuangfei was quite shocked and asked, "Are you sure?"

"determine."

"Is it the bastard who bathed naked in the abyss?"

Fox Eight said: "It should be him, because Longxushui's body is under the waterfall."

"Lead the way." Shen Jichi stood up.

"My Lord, as long as you take this, you can find him."

Fox Bayi handed over a piece of crystal clear white bone that was glowing with a faint light.

Shen Jichi took it and jumped straight into the abyss.

He was washed down with the rapids and fell into the boiling magma. He kept going down and down in the magma. Finally, he saw the huge corpse that was split into two deep underground.

What’s amazing is that even though the skin of the corpse, which has been in the magma for so long, is dry and bloodless, it is still intact, as if it had solidified.
