Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 820 The Strange Stone Statue
"Because he practiced the evil kung fu of the Buddhist school."

"Buddhist evil?" Lin Ji frowned, which reminded him of Zhang Mi a few years ago.

"Yes." The boatman nodded and continued, "Zhao Weiguo has been practicing kung fu in the water dungeon, one is to avoid people's eyes and ears, and the other is because of the evil spirit there. "

"Zhao Weiguo originally practiced swordsmanship, but because of his limited talent, he was stuck in the middle of the five realms. Later, he accidentally obtained a white jade Buddha statue from a fisherman, on which were engraved the cultivation methods of evil Buddha arts. So, like me, he is greedy for evil methods to increase his speed, but after all, his identity is there, so he can only cultivate secretly in this water prison."

"I listened to Li Nan's instructions. After sneaking into Weicheng, I searched for places suitable for cultivating evil arts. When I got down to the water prison, I met him face to face. Although I have a higher level than him, the water prison is very strange. There are The formation can help him to be powerful, and he actually fought with me and wounded both sides."

Lin Ji secretly said: "This should be about five or six years ago, when He Kui came to Beijing for him."

The boatman continued: "He may not dare to tell this matter to the outside world. I also can't bear to give up on the water prison, a holy place for cultivation. I have fought more than a dozen times, and each time there was no winner. But there was one fight It was so ruthless that I chopped the Jade Buddha in half, I snatched the Buddha's body, and he took the Buddha's head. It was also that time that he opened the secret passage in the water prison while fleeing in a hurry, and I learned about it."

"Afterwards, I fused Li Nan's sorcery and half of the evil Buddha's skills to improve my speed and reach the peak of the six realms. I wanted to snatch the Buddha's head again, and learned the whole evil Buddha's art to enter the Tao, but When we went again, there were more people in the water prison.”

"Another person?" Lin Jiqi asked, "Who?"

"It's an old man!" said the boatman. "It's the old man who is said to have poisoned his brother Zhao Weimin and the snake catcher who killed his brother Zhao Weimin and dozens of members of the Zhao family, and was dragged into a water prison by him to torture him to death."

"Actually, that old man is not a snake catcher at all! Or he used to be."

Lin Ji felt a little strange, and frowned slightly: "What's going on? Tell me in detail."

The boatman continued: "That year a peddler came to the city. He loved to inquire about strange things, and somehow he heard that fishermen caught a Jade Buddha, and then sold it to Mr. Zhao through several hands. thing."

"That night, I sneaked into Zhao's house to look for it, but was blocked by Zhao Weimin. After two strikes, the man lost his hair. He turned out to be a monk. The monk became ruthless when he saw the truth, and killed Zhao with evil tricks. There were dozens of people in the family, but the heads of the four great families were alarmed. The four heads came and killed the monk, but the monk turned to look for evil Buddhas. Although his cultivation was not high, he was very cunning. He even tricked the four masters into the Dao Realm's eyes and snatched away the passing snake catcher."

"After that, I don't know what method I used to coerce Zhao Weiguo into a water prison!"

Lin Ji was puzzled when he heard this: according to what He Kui heard, it was Zhao Weiguo who arrested the old man to avenge himself.But the boatman said that Zhao Weiguo was taken with him.

Naturally, there is another link in this.

That is, before the Zhao family was destroyed, Zhao Weiguo sent He Kui to the capital to deliver a secret letter.

It stands to reason that in a place like Weicheng that hasn't even had a case of evil spirits in a year and a half, why is there such a confidential matter that has to be sent all the way?
Is this intentional or unintentional?

Who did Shen Lian give this secret letter to in the end?
Fang Yunshan?Gao Qunshu?still……

"And then?" Lin Ji asked further.

"That old man. That monk's cultivation level is not very high, but he is very strange. Plus Zhao Weiguo, I am no match at all. Fortunately, I escaped quickly, otherwise I would be wiped out!"

"After I recovered from my injury, I didn't dare to go again easily. And I heard that the Lu family had another master from Jingzhou who entered the Dao stage, so I didn't dare to act rashly. A few days ago, I just received a call from Li Nan. The secret letter said that it was five days... that is, yesterday, there will be a sudden chaos in the city, and the four masters and all the monks will have no time to take care of this place, so I took the opportunity to kill Zhao Weiguo."

"Sure enough, at ten o'clock at noon, several big demon kings jointly attacked the city, and several big families all over the city were in chaos. I sneaked into the water prison and killed Zhao Weiguo, and took away the Buddha's head."

"As soon as we got back, the news of the great battle ahead spread all over the city, saying that the patriarchs of the four great aristocratic families killed each other, and you killed all the big demon kings, and Li Nan himself ended up disappearing. "

"I was going to take the Buddha's head away from Weicheng. I prepared soft and dry food and just went to the sea. I couldn't help but take out the Buddha's head to see it. Who knows that Buddha's head..."

"Missing?" Lin Ji answered.

The boatman shook his head, and took out a round stone ball from the fish cabin at the bow.

Lin Ji was stunned when he saw it.

The carved head of the stone statue is so lifelike that it looks like a real person.

Surprisingly, it is the appearance of Wu Nan in memory!

The stone statue gritted its teeth and closed its eyes tightly, as if it had a terrifying nightmare in its deep sleep.

Lin Ji was startled, but saw that the stone statue seemed to come alive, opened his eyes suddenly, his face twisted as if he was shouting something, but he couldn't make a sound.

But in the blink of an eye, it returned to its original state, but the expression on that face was even more painful!

The direction of the face of the stone statue was facing Lin Ji, but the boatman didn't see it, and continued: "A good Buddha head turned into the face of a little monk. I thought it was because I ran away in a hurry yesterday and didn't look carefully. Really. The head of the Buddha was hidden by Zhao Weiguo, so he hid the boat and sneaked in again. Unexpectedly, not long after I entered, I heard someone calling Lin Tianguan to come, and I was so scared that I quickly hid. Then...then I was Tianguan, you stabbed your leg with a sword."

Lin Ji came to his senses, and called out a little strangely: "So, you didn't make the sound of the stone ball falling to the ground?"

"Of course not!" the boatman said, "I know you're here, how dare you mess around? It turned into a black mist and stuck to the wall tightly, not daring to move."

Lin Ji thought for a while and said, "So, you just took a fake Buddha's head? How can you be sure that the person you killed yesterday was not Zhao Weiguo?"

"Because..." the boatman gasped, "I came a little earlier than you, and I saw with my own eyes that Zhao Weiguo cut off his own head and replaced it with a Buddha's head! Besides, there seemed to be a lot of people in the house before you came." More than one person!"

Lin Ji nodded, and said with great certainty: "There should be another person! When I was in the dungeon just now, I made a trick of throwing stones to ask for directions. That person thought that I was chasing you all the way and got caught. In fact, Lin was trying to lure the snake out of the cave. "

The boatman was at a loss when he heard this: "Lin Tianguan, what... is this all about?"
