Chapter fifty-six, demon conspiracy
Early in the morning, the intelligence personnel from Hengshan Sect who lived in Pingyang came to the door and brought bad news about the loss of contact.
"I haven't received any news. Have you not contacted the door?"
Elder Wang asked with concern.
The Hengshan Sect is an indispensable part of the Huashan Sect to enter the Three Jin Dynasties. Without this local snake cooperation, it would not be easy for outsiders to gain a foothold in the local area.
After all, the Huashan Sect came here to solve the shortage of wealth. If you fight and kill, you should do as little as possible, so as not to make enemies with local tribes and affect your plan to make money.
The Hengshan disciple who looked like a shopkeeper replied tremblingly: "The Demon Sect surrounded Hengshan. We broke off contact with the mountain half a month ago.
I only received a message from my fellow disciple three days ago, and a team broke through the sect. But no one told me the specific whereabouts!"
After asking questions and not knowing each other, Elder Wang waved helplessly: "You go, and let us know immediately if there is news."
“Yes…yes…”
The old man replied excitedly, and he did not forget to bow before leaving.
...
When the old man walked away, Li Mu and others came out of the tent next door. Obviously, there was no word left in the conversation just now.
"Mr. Nephew, what do you think?"
Among the seven people who were close to him, he was only a generation younger. Li Mu immediately realized that this was Elder Wang's insight that was being taught by him.
"This person has a problem. Hengshan is so big that even if all the members of the Demon Cult are gathered together, they may not be able to block it.
Even if the Demon Sect really blocked Hengshan, as a local snake, I don’t believe that Hengshan Sect can’t even deliver a message.
Especially when he was speaking just now, this Hengshan disciple was very nervous, as if he was afraid of something.
My Huashan Sect and Hengshan Sect are allies. Logically speaking, as a disciple of Hengshan, he has no reason to be afraid of us.
The most important thing is that such a big thing happened, he did not ask us for help at the first time, but waited quietly for Uncle Wang to make arrangements. This was very abnormal."
Elder Wang nodded and said with a smile: "My nephew's analysis is good, this person is indeed a problem.
When he came just now, he was looking around, as if he was reconnaissing information. When he was talking to me, he kept evasive and afraid to look directly at me, as if he had done something wrong.
It can be seen that he was still struggling in his heart, obviously he had just betrayed for a while. When he finally left, he wanted to speak but stopped, as if he was being controlled."
Feng Qingyang, who was standing beside him, angrily rebuked: "Damn the Demon Sect, just use these despicable methods!"
Is it really the devil's sect?
Li Mu was very suspicious.
If it is done by the Demon Cult, why not play a big game and set up a trap to lead them over?
Although the Huashan Sect has excellent martial arts skills, it is not as high as the sky. The principle that many ants bite the elephant to death is completely applicable here.
Even if you can't keep everyone, just keep half of it will be enough to make the Huashan Sect hurt. With the grudge between the Demon Sect and the Huashan Sect, there is no pressure to do such things.
Unless it is insufficient to take into account this Huashan support team.
The five major branches in the north, the ten direct culprits of the elders, and the gathered three religions and the nine ranks of religions and the lack of strength, so the water here will be deep.
No matter how speculation is, Li Mu dares not draw a conclusion if he makes a mistake in his judgment. If his judgment is wrong and affects everyone's decision, he will make a reckless move at this time and may even lose his life.
"It seems that the evacuation plan of the Hengshan Sect has been exposed. It depends on how much power the Demon Cult has in Pingyang. If several major families in Pingyang defect to the Demon Cult, our operation will be difficult this time."
Elder Liu, who had a beard, said with a serious expression.
Even though we know that the enemy has a plan, we can't do anything now. The Taihang Mountains are so big, who knows where the people from the Hengshan School are?
If you miss the meeting, the Huashan Sect and his group are elite soldiers who can run away at any time, and the Hengshan Sect, who will be with their families, will be in trouble.
"Maybe things are not that bad. Several martial arts families in Pingyang have been passed down for hundreds of years. They will not be unaware of the consequences of colluding with the Demon Sect.
Although the Demon Sect is arrogant now, looking at the battles between good and evil, when did the Demon Sect end up not losing?
When it comes to family heritage, these old foxes will not take risks easily. We all arrived at the doorstep, and there was no reason for them not to show up. Wait, I won’t want someone to come to my door soon.”
Elder Wang vetoed.
...
Pingyang City, Hengji Satin Village backyard.
A middle-aged man with a fat face sat on the Taishi chair and asked lazily: "How are you inquiring about it? Who did the Huashan Sect come this time?"
The old man nodded and said, "Report to the Lord Protector, there are about a hundred people from Huashan Sect this time, all of whom are good at the martial arts world. The leader is Wuyin Sword Wang Qingshan.
Those who accompanied him were Liu Qingwen of Feiyun Sword, Duan Qingfeng of Taiyue Knight, and Wu Qingyuan of the Soul-Chasing Sword. These were all seen by the disciples with their own eyes, and there were masters who were hidden, so I don’t know.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man kicked the old man away, with a fierce look on his face and scolded: "Baoman, I can't even do a good job in inquiring about the news. What's the use for you?"
The old man was so scared that he quickly got up, and didn't even care about the blood on the corner of his mouth, and shouted anxiously: "Sir, please spare me, please spare me..."
"Shut up!"
"The most taboo thing about doing things for my Holy Church is to be half-hearted. Du Changqing, don't think that the little tricks in your belly can deceive people.
Let me tell you the truth. Once you enter the door of my Godly religion, you will be a person from the Godly religion and die a ghost from the Godly religion.
It’s rare that you think you can turn back with a little trick? The people from the Huashan Sect are outside the city. Why don’t you confess to them and see if they can tolerate you?"
It is difficult to be a traitor, especially at the juncture of a war between good and evil. Both sides are vigilant, and even if they accept the letter of suspicion, they will be suspicious.
Du Changqing, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly explained: "The Protector has misunderstood. My loyalty to the Divine Cult is to be seen by the sun and the moon, and the heaven and the earth can be seen.
It’s not that the old man doesn’t do his best, but that he is an outer disciple like me, and he has no status in the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
With my identity, if I arrive at the camp of the Huashan School, if I move without authorization, it will probably immediately arouse suspicion."
When talking about status, the middle-aged man's expression slightly eased.
The Sun and Moon Divine Sect is also of distinct hierarchy. Not to mention being an external disciple, even an elite in the sect like him may cause death if he wanders around.
"snort!"
"Let's spare you once. If the next task fails again, I will send you a family to reunite."
"Yes...yes, disciples must..."
