Chapter 316: The Fall of the Senior Brother, All-in Failure
Let’s not talk about Shang Mengting’s ambitions for now.
the other side.
Su Heng and Solban continued to move forward.
Su Heng was a little surprised to meet Shang Mengting.
But he didn't take it to heart. Whether in status or strength, the difference between the two was too great.
And there was no particularly deep communication in the past, basically no different from passers-by. The most urgent task is to find the dragon tomb and how to enter it.
Previously, Solban speculated that the demons might have had a hand in this matter.
If you come across it, that would be the best.
Su Heng was very interested in the body structure and innate magical powers of the demons.
This is a good opportunity to capture a few and bring them back to the Demon-Suppressing Tower for a thorough dissection and study.
If you can't touch...
That's fine, it saves a lot of trouble.
The two walked through the bustling market and finally arrived at the center of the city.
In front of me was a huge, empty black stone square, with a huge square base in the middle, on which was suspended a gigantic sphere with a diameter of several meters.
If you look closely, you can see that there are many flat surfaces of different sizes on the sphere.
These facets project streamer light outward.
A series of sci-fi style virtual screens appeared in the square.
Su Heng and Solban were both country bumpkins, and it was their first time seeing such a wonderful thing. Their attention was drawn to the lines of text on the screen. Some were trading information, some were secret treasures found in Longyuan, requests to go out and form a team, etc.
"What is this?" Solban blinked with curiosity on his face.
Su Heng's condition was slightly better.
He had never seen it, but he had seen records of it in the information given by Meng Huan.
"It should be a photo stone." Su Heng explained, "The photo stones are divided into mother stones and child stones. The child stones can go out to collect information, and the mother stones can project these images. What we are seeing now should be the mother stone among the photo stones."
"I see." Solban suddenly realized.
Su Heng acted very normal, it was just a large projector, nothing special.
"Let's go look around the stalls first to see if there are any clues about Long Yuan." Su Heng had already made up his mind as he walked along.
"Okay!" Solban nodded.
He is now Su Heng's subordinate, and when they are not enemies, the two get along pretty well.
Zizi!
Solban just turned around and prepared to search for clues.
But at this moment, a strange sound came from behind him. He stopped and turned to look at the square behind him.
But I saw it in the square.
Many images hanging in the sky disappeared one by one.
The last huge bloody picture, like a horizontal screen, occupied the center of all the information.
Such a noticeable change attracted everyone's attention for a while. Su Heng also frowned slightly and looked up. The surroundings were quiet at first, and then there was a noisy discussion. This market was built by King Qingyang for a while, and this was the first time there was such an abnormality inside.
"What happened?" someone asked.
"I'm not sure." Another young voice replied, "But it looks like it's not a good thing."
Another unremarkable neighborhood.
Shang Mengting also heard the news and watched from afar along with the elders in the family.
Dragon Abyss was opened, and a huge amount of resources flowed in and out of this market. In order to seek shelter, Shang Mengting spent all the last resources on hand. This was the last chance for the merchants to rise. She looked calm, but she was actually very nervous.
Never miss any news and come to confirm it as soon as possible.
The bloody picture is blurry.
After a while, everything seemed to slowly come into focus and become clear.
The picture shows an abandoned city, with collapsed ruins everywhere, potholes on the ground, and even the sky is gray. It is obvious that a shocking battle took place here, causing the surrounding environment to change significantly.
And in the very center of the screen.
It's blood!
A headless corpse dressed in white collapsed in a pool of blood that was as clear as a mirror.
His head was not far away, nailed to the wall by a broken black long knife pierced through his forehead.
His eyes were wide open, bloodshot. His neck was not cut evenly, but with flesh and fat, as well as a swaying spine. It was obviously ripped out of his body by someone using extremely cruel means.
The picture is dynamic. As the breeze blows, the pale spine sways back and forth, and blood flows, staining the weeds and dust on the ground red.
The people around them held their breath, and then they started talking like a boiling pot. "This man is Liuyun Mountain's senior brother Jingyun!" A young warrior said in disbelief, "I saw him in this market a few days ago, surrounded by a group of people, with a Taoist charm flowing around him, like a banished immortal. I didn't expect him to turn into a corpse in the blink of an eye, and his death was so tragic."
"And it's not just the eldest brother. There are many corpses around the scene. They are all chopped into pieces. They are all the elites of Liuyun Mountain."
"The Dragon Abyss has just been opened, and Liuyun Mountain has suffered heavy losses!"
There was also a white-haired old man who was surprised and said, "As one of the four great immortal mountains of Changyue, with a profound foundation and ancient heritage, who would dare to do something so heartless? Aren't you afraid of revenge in anger?"
"Big Brother!?" The maid in green next to Shang Mengting covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes red, unable to accept such news.
Shang Mengting's eyes suddenly went dark.
I just felt a chill coming over me, and my head felt heavy and my feet felt light-headed. All the strength in my body seemed to be drained away at once, and my knees felt weak.
If a family elder hadn't reached out to support her in time, Shang Mengting would have collapsed to the ground.
But even so, her face was terribly pale.
The scallion-white fingers were trembling slightly under the long sleeves.
I felt totally confused, and the whole world seemed to have become darker in an instant. I had no idea what to do.
Relying on ancestral connections.
She placed all her resources on the current senior brother of Liuyun Mountain.
As a result, Longyuan had just been opened when this senior brother sent it away.
The shop he rented in the prosperous area of Fangshi could still be opened, but without the reputation of Liuyun Mountain and the protection of his senior brother, it was impossible to protect the wealth he had worked so hard to gather.
With the current strength of the merchants, they are just fat sheep that can be slaughtered at will.
Holding on to these riches can only bring disaster.
"What should I do?" Shang Mengting only felt her hands and feet were cold and cold sweat was pouring down her face.
……
"This is the method used by the demon clan." Solban said in a low voice with a slightly gloomy expression, "When I fought with that person before, my immortality was suppressed and I couldn't use it at all. This person probably encountered the same situation. He first suppressed his immortality, and then his head was torn off by a huge force. His death was miserable."
"If you encounter it, you must be careful." Solban reminded sincerely.
But after I finished speaking, I felt that it was of no use.
Su Heng still has a long way to go before he can reach the Earthly Immortal Realm!
There is no immortality.
No matter how sophisticated the demon's methods are, they will not be of much use when facing Su Heng.
"I understand." Su Heng nodded. There was a noisy discussion around him, which attracted his attention.
Longyuan attracted powerful people from all over the world. Solban could see some clues in the picture. Naturally, some other practitioners had the same means.
"Demon descendants, I haven't heard of their name for a long time. I didn't expect to see their traces here." A sturdy man with a rough face and an open chest, like a butcher, licked his lips with excitement on his face.
"There's something fun to watch now."
Another companion laughed and said, "No matter who did this, Liuyun Mountain will definitely not let it go after suffering such a huge loss.
Once the demons show up, it won’t be long before those ghostwriters come running over like wild dogs smelling blood. Moreover, this road was opened up by King Qingyang, who is upright and will not sit idly by. "
"These demon bastards are still immersed in the glory of the past. Their era has long ended, and the few lonely ghosts left now dare to do such things blatantly. They are simply seeking death." A white-haired old man seemed to know some secrets of the past. He shook his head with disdain on his face.
"Ghostwriter..."
Su Heng whispered. He had learned from Meng Huan that there was a group of people who specialized in hunting demons for a living and exchanged resources from the court for cultivation. Moreover, they had an ancient origin. They had been active long before the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
I just don’t know what unexpected means these people have for defeating the demons.
Su Heng was full of curiosity.
But I didn't waste too much energy on this matter.
Just like a pony crossing a river, these demons were a threat to Solban, but in Su Heng's eyes, they might not be a problem.
"Let's go and search for clues related to the Dragon Tomb first." Su Heng said.
"Okay!" Solban nodded and agreed.
In order to improve efficiency, the two decided to split up and ask the vendors on both sides of the street one by one.
Su Heng's luck seemed to be quite good. Not long after, he got the information he needed from a roadside vendor.
The vendor was tall, with leopard eyes and a goat's beard.
His attire was half scholar, half warrior, and somewhat like a general in samurai robes.
He has a loud voice and is enthusiastic, which makes him a good first impression. But if you look closely, you can see that his eyes are bright and his smile is fake, as if he is calculating something.
Su Heng practiced the Tathagatagarbha Sutra and his spiritual perception became sharp.
Even if you don't read minds deliberately, you can feel that this person is intentionally hiding something.
But he didn't care, as long as he could get useful information.
"I am Zhao Zhuang!" The man first introduced himself enthusiastically, and then asked, "I wonder what exactly you want to know from me?"
