dead body search

Chapter 394

There are cliffs and lonely peaks standing upright.

Hou Dongsheng stood on the isolated peak.

A flying sword struck close to the lonely peak, as fast as lightning.

The sword light coming out of the peak is already in sight, and there is no way to avoid it.

Hou Dongsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and slapped it away with his palm.

"boom!"

The majestic sword light was scattered by a pair of fleshy palms.

The sword edge passed by but was blocked by a soft force, unable to advance an inch.

As soon as the sword energy turned, it attacked him again.

Hou Dongsheng swayed and avoided several times.

A flick of the finger.

clang!
With a clear cry, the flying sword fell off the cliff and disappeared without a trace.

"You! You're actually a body cultivator?" Chen Tianming's startled voice came from all directions.

Hou Dongsheng didn't speak, but quietly observed the formation.

He has the Xuanyang Shaking Hammer in his hand that is specially designed to break through formations. Although he is limited to his cultivation and cannot fully exert the power of this hammer, it should be more than enough to deal with such a small formation.

However, breaking the formation violently is always the last resort, and Hou Dongsheng is going to try his understanding of the way of fighting.

Hou Dongsheng said with a smile: "Tianji City Fang City itself has formations, and there is no way for you to be ignorant and unknowingly set up formations in the formation. Most of this formation is given to the three major families in Tianji City Reported, otherwise they will never allow you to set up a private formation."

"That's right! The three major families of Tianji City do know this formation, but so what? You will die today!" Chen Tianming's gloomy voice came from all directions again.

"Hehe... Since the formation was reported in the name of the treasure house, at most this formation only has the ability to trap people and trace people, and absolutely has no killing power." Hou Dongsheng said in a firm tone.

"The flying sword of this seat is enough to kill you!" After Chen Tianming finished speaking, the whistling sound of the flying sword came again.

This time Hou Dongsheng was more fully prepared, he squatted directly on the top of the mountain, and opened the posture of the sun and the moon with both fists.

The power of squatting!
Whoosh!
The flying sword slashed towards Hou Dongsheng with a cold glow.

Hou Dongsheng tapped his toes, moved his body, and dodged.

However, Feijian refused to let go, and continued to pursue, insisting on killing him.

"Humph!"

A sweeping sweep of thousands of troops swept towards the blade, directly deflecting it.

"Pfft!"

The aura of the sword body was scattered again and fell into the cliff.

"Good skill! But so what? You are trapped in the formation and can't fight back, and I use the flying sword outside the formation. I can only kill you. Without you killing me, I can fail thousands of times, but you can only One failure!" Chen Tianming's gloomy voice resounded throughout the formation space.

Whoosh!
The flying sword struck again.

Hou Dongsheng opened his posture, ready to face Feijian.

And the flying sword actually stopped in mid-air, roaming around, spinning continuously, as if looking for an opportunity to draw the sword, and killed it with one blow.

snorted.

Feijian had already arrived in front of Hou Dongsheng.

He punched out and took the flying sword straight.

"boom!"

With a muffled sound, the flying sword fell off the cliff.

at the same time.

Hou Dongsheng opened his mouth and spat out, a crimson lightning bolt the thickness of a bucket followed Feijian closely.

The moment the flying sword disappeared, the lightning also disappeared.

……

In the cramped secret room.

Chen Tianming stood on a vermilion altar, in front of him was a gray curtain of light.

"rise!"

The aura of a vermilion flying sword rose sharply.

Immediately after...

The flying sword shot into the gray light curtain of formation.

"You are actually a body cultivator!"

"You must die today!"

"Hahahaha... the flying sword of this seat is enough to kill you!"

"Suffer to death!"

……

Every time he roared arrogantly, his flying sword was shattered and the aura fell out of the formation.

Fortunately, although Hou Dongsheng was difficult to deal with, he was trapped in the formation and had no strength to fight back.

"I can fail thousands of times, but you can only fail once!" Angrily, Chen Tianming once again sacrificed the flying sword. He kept plucking the sword formula on the altar, this time he must kill this person.

The flying sword drew a brilliant trajectory in the void, and once again pierced into the gray light curtain of the formation.

"boom!"

Feijian's aura was knocked down again, and Chen Tianming activated the formation to make Feijian fall out of the formation.

Right now!
A crimson lightning bolt as thick as a bucket rushed out along the nodes of the formation.

The thick lightning jumped and hit Chen Tianming directly.

"what!"

A scream sounded.

Chen Tianming was directly blown off the altar.

The one that hit him was the quasi-third-order Daoist Kwai Shui Yin Lei. This thunder has a strong corrosive effect, which can be said to be extremely vicious.

Chen Tianming fell to the ground, resisting the severe pain and trying to get up, but found that his chest was in unbearable pain. It seemed that some liquid flowed out from the inside, and the stench became stronger and stronger.

"Do not!"

Chen Tianming stared wide-eyed and looked at the cave on his chest in disbelief. Everything happened so suddenly that he couldn't react at all. He was a monk on the ninth floor of Qi Refining, and he was only one step away from establishing a foundation. He couldn't die like this.

But he was helpless, the sunflower water and thunder had eroded into his viscera.

His vitality is rapidly fading...

In the formation space, Hou Dongsheng yelled loudly: "Master Chen! Old Chen!"

"My thunder is also blind, um... are you dead? If you die, you will be stunned. We can't make a deal. Don't worry! If you die, I will find you a good pair." Coffin, I guarantee you won’t let your corpse die in the wilderness, hahahaha... Brother, I am the most benevolent when I come out to walk the rivers and lakes.”

"I said shopkeeper Chen, why haven't you responded yet? It seems that I was really beaten to death. Don't rely on me for this matter. Who told you that you are a cheap hand, and you let go of the flying sword again and again. Tease me, hehe... Do you think I'm so easy to tease? Why do you think I put your broken sword back again and again? Hehe..."

Hou Dongsheng was provocative with words, but there was no echo from outside. It seemed that Chen Tianming had indeed been killed, so he stopped wasting his energy and began to delve into this difficult formation.

This is just a second-order formation, and I will definitely be able to break through it.

Hou Dongsheng waved out more than ten formation flags, swiping...

A second-order Liangyi array was successfully arranged.

Formation starts!

Hou Dongsheng made a formula with both hands, and he was muttering: "The innate dual appearance, infinite evolution, the mysterious Yin Qi, corrupts all things, the mysterious Yang Qi, restrains evil spirits, the heaven and earth dual appearance, suppresses all directions, thousands of sneaks, there is nowhere to hide, urgent Urgent as a law!"

Following Hou Dongsheng's incantation, more than a dozen formation flags swayed.

There must be mutual interference in the operation of formations, which is the basic principle of broken formations.

Hou Dongsheng narrowed his eyes, flicked his fingers, and a ray of spiritual light flew out and landed on one of the formation flags. The formation flag immediately burst into flames, and then dissipated, while the other formation flags also mutated, three of them The color of the runes of the array flags became darker, while the other four array flags became lighter. Three of the array flags even began to emit black smoke, while the other five array flags turned white.

"That's right!"

The corner of Hou Dongsheng's mouth was slightly raised, and a smile appeared on his face: "The world is boundless, the wind and thunder are ordered, the yin and yang, break the formation!"

With the operation of the formation, the space formed by the formation distorted, and finally disillusioned like a bubble.

The patterns on the ground receded gradually, and Hou Dongsheng appeared in the underground secret room.

Ten large wooden boxes were placed on the edge of the secret room. These wooden boxes were filled with high-quality minerals, and their value was no less than a hundred thousand spirit stones.

In the past, it was fine if there was no dust world, but now they are all packaged up and taken away, and the six female ghosts are sorted into categories.

Chen Tianming lay leaning not far from the altar, a big hole was corroded by the sunflower water and thunder in his chest, and the dirty blood flowed on the ground, exuding a foul smell.

Hou Dongsheng waved his hand.

Six ghosts have no return.

A black ghostly wind swept across the entire room, sweeping away all the corpses and gore on the ground, and the ten large wooden boxes also disappeared together.

Now how to do?
Straight away?

inappropriate……

After all, Xuanyang Sect is not far from Tianji City, and Hou Dongsheng would come to visit Tianji City Fangshi every now and then, causing trouble is a hidden danger after all.

Just keep doing nothing!
A cold light flashed in Hou Dongsheng's eyes.

……

In the southwest of Tianji City, Lijiabao opened a foundation-building cave residence.

In the cave mansion, Wu Zhengfeng, a loose cultivator in the foundation building period, was cultivating cross-legged.

suddenly.

A soul lamp in the cave was extinguished.

Wu Zhengfeng opened his eyes and looked at the soul lamp.

Three words were engraved on the bronze soul lamp: Chen Tianming.

Chen Tianming, the treasurer of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, is actually dead! ?
Wu Zhengfeng was startled, and he cast a spell to confirm that Chen Tianming died in the Tianlong store in Tianji City.

This matter is no small matter!

Wu Zhengfeng immediately left the pass and flew to Tianji City.

With less than a cup of tea, Wu Zhengfeng came to Tianlong Casting Workshop.

The casting workshop is quite lively.

A group of employees of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce in yellow robes stood aggrieved in the corner, and the three patrol monks in Tianji City were menacing, as if they were interrogating prisoners, and promoted these employees of the Chamber of Commerce one by one.

"Wu Zhengfeng met three fellow Taoists at the Heavenly Dragon Chamber of Commerce." Wu Zhengfeng cupped his fists and bowed.

"My lord, Li Wufeng, someone told you that the store is bullying customers. You go and wait aside, and I will tell you after our interrogation is over." The leader of the big man in black said coldly.

"Our Yunlong Chamber of Commerce is absolutely innocent!" Wu Zhengfeng hastily explained.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, don't panic, go and sit aside first, our Tianji Mansion will definitely judge the case impartially, and I have something to ask you." Another Foundation Establishment cultivator pulled Wu Zhengfeng to the other side.

"Dare to ask, as a fellow daoist?"

"Hu Tianhai."

"It turned out to be the elder of the Hu family, what a disrespect and disrespect."

The two sat down in a hut.

"I don't know why the Tianji Mansion closed down the shop of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce?" Wu Zhengfeng asked.

Hu Tianhai chuckled and said, "Don't blame Daoist Wu. Someone has sued your store for oppressing customers. We are ordered to maintain the order of the market and come here to check this matter. According to the results of the check, your store is indeed suspected of bullying customers."

"To tell you the truth, fellow Daoist Wu, Wu has been in seclusion for a long time and doesn't know much about the operation of the store, so he told fellow Daoist Hu what happened?"

"A fellow Taoist named Hou Dongsheng just went to Tianji Mansion to report the case and appeal for grievances. He made an agreement with the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce to pay a deposit of [-] spirit stones to pick up the goods in a month, but the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce lost the goods. Meeting with this fellow daoist, this fellow daoist can only sue Tianji Mansion with the contract in his hand, and let us uphold justice." Hu Tianhai said.

"Can I meet this fellow Taoist Hou Dongsheng?"

"Hehe...it's natural! After all, you still have to check the authenticity of the contract."

After a while...

Hu Tianhai led Wu Zhengfeng into the backyard.

Before entering the backyard, Wu Zhengfeng heard a man's mournful cry.

"I'm wronged! My [-] spirit stones were cheated by this shop for nothing. How could there be such a shameless shop." A man cried loudly holding a contract in his hand.

The man's eyes were red and his expression was miserable.

It's really miserable.

"Hou Daoyou, this is the enshrinement of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce." Hu Tianhai introduced.

"Liar! Pay me [-] spirit stones!" Hou Dongsheng roared with red eyes.

"Show me your contract."

Hou Dongsheng spread out the deed in his hand, and said to everyone: "A month ago, I ordered two thousand catties of fine iron gold from Tianlong Foundry, and I paid a deposit of [-] spirit stones. It is clear that this is the full amount, if I cannot get the two thousand gold iron essence gold after one month, then Tianlong Foundry will compensate me one hundred thousand spirit stones."

After speaking, he handed the contract to Wu Zhengfeng. Wu Zhengfeng held the contract in his hand with a gloomy face.

The black and white words on the deed and the red seal are all true!

"I came a month later, and I didn't see the two thousand catties of iron essence gold at all. Then Chen Tianming also sneaked away and avoided seeing them. These guys didn't know anything about it, so I could only sue the Tianji Mansion about it. I hope Lord Inspector will uphold justice for me!" Hou Dongsheng said.

"Just now we asked the clerk of the shop, but there is this matter! This fellow Daoist Hou did indeed take out [-] spirit stones as a deposit, and it was written in black and white in the contract that he would have to pay double compensation if he didn't see the goods after one month. As long as the shop gives one hundred thousand spirit stones, the matter will be over." Zhou Wenlong said.

Wu Zhengfeng's eyelids twitched, and he took a deep breath and said, "Since the chamber of commerce has accepted your spirit stone, it will definitely give you the goods. If you can't, then double the compensation according to the contract. It's no big deal!"

"It's just that Chen Tianming, the shopkeeper of my Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, died in the shop, but you did it!?" Wu Zhengfeng pointed at Hou Dongsheng and shouted sharply.

"Stop spitting! That guy Chen Tianming obviously ran away! If that guy dared to lie to me about my spirit stone, if he didn't run away in the shop, I'd have to tear him up," Hou Dongsheng said angrily.

"I spitting blood?" Wu Zhengfeng sneered and patted the storage bag and took out a bronze lamp. The flame on the bronze lamp had been extinguished.

The word Chen Tianming is engraved on the bronze lamp.

"You snuffed it out." Hou Dongsheng said flatly.

"You!" Wu Zhengfeng almost fainted out of breath.

"How do you prove that you didn't kill it?"

Wu Zhengfeng: "I..."

"There is no way to prove it, right? Then you still say? Pay for the Lingshi, I will leave after paying for the Lingshi." Hou Dongsheng said aggressively.

"One hundred thousand spirit stones is not a small amount, not to mention that Chen Tianming, the store manager, was murdered. I have to find out about this first!" Wu Zhengfeng said with a serious face.

"Hmph!" Hou Dongsheng sneered: "Find out? What do you want to find out? I think you just want to procrastinate! You want to rely on my spirit stone."

"Master inspectors, you must be the masters for me." Hou Dongsheng said again, clasping his fists.

Wu Zhengfeng gave a deep salute to the three inspectors and said, "10 taels of Lingshi, my Tianlong Chamber of Commerce will pay you now, but I will definitely find out the murderer who killed Chen Tianming."

"One yard is worth one yard. First pay the Lingshi zero. Chen Tianming's death must find the body. If there is no body, how can we file a case!?" Li Wufeng said coldly.

"Master Qingtian!" Hou Dongsheng said gratefully.

"Okay, let's close the Lingshi compensation first." Hu Tianhai said impatiently.

"Three adults! The villain has something to sue!"

Exactly at this time.

A middle-aged man on the third level of Qi refining took a step forward, knelt down and kowtowed, pointed at Hou Dongsheng and said, "After this person came to the shop this morning, not only the shopkeeper Chen disappeared, but also ten large wooden boxes worth eight The spirit ore of Wanling Stone also disappeared."

"Blood!" Hou Dongsheng jumped up again.

"I asked your Tianlong Chamber of Commerce to compensate for the spirit stone in black and white. You accused me of killing someone and stealing the spirit mine. You clearly want to renege on your debt and beat you!" Hou Dongsheng roared emotionally.

Li Wufeng, Hu Tianhai, and Zhou Wenlong from Tianji Mansion couldn't stand it any longer.

"Hey! Your Tianlong Chamber of Commerce really hit a ghost. Two thousand catties of iron essence gold disappeared for nothing, and ten large wooden boxes could also disappear." Zhou Wenlong said mockingly.

"Do you doubt Hou Dongsheng? But this guy has never left Tianji City, how did he hide ten large wooden boxes?" Li Wufeng asked.

"I'm just a storage bag. If you don't believe me, you can check it." Hou Dongsheng untied his belt with red eyes, proving his innocence.

Although the storage bag has the power of mustard seeds, if it is filled with too much, it will inevitably bulge, and Hou Dongsheng's storage bag is dry and dry, obviously there is nothing in it, and it is absolutely impossible to hide any large goods.

"No! I don't suspect Senior Hou. If Senior Hou really committed such a serious crime, he would not be able to stay in Tianji City, let alone complain to Tianji Mansion. I suspect that Iron Essence Gold , The death of shopkeeper Chen and the disappearance of ten wooden boxes were all done by one person." The middle-aged man said again.

"Oh... who do you suspect?" Li Wufeng asked.

The middle-aged man looked at Wu Zhengfeng.

"The old man is enshrined by the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, how can he guard and steal himself?" Wu Zhengfeng was furious.

"Wu Gongfeng, you misunderstood. I mean, I am afraid that only Wu Gongfeng can find out about this case." The middle-aged man explained.

"What do you mean?"

"To tell you the truth, Master Chen ordered me to find out about the loss of two thousand catties of iron essence gold two days ago. The responsibility of escorting the treasures has always been undertaken by the foundation-building period priests of the chamber of commerce, and the foundation-building period priests always have soul lamps in the headquarters. If Wu Gongfeng returns to the headquarters, he will naturally know who did it."

"You mean that Lin Juefeng, who is in charge of escorting the treasure, guards and steals it?" Wu Zhengfeng asked.

"The little one doesn't know, all of this is just a little guesswork." The middle-aged man said.

"Impossible! What does he want so much iron and gold?" Wu Zhengfeng was full of doubts.

"I don't care who did it, either give me [-] spirit stones today, or give me two thousand catties of iron-fine gold, otherwise this matter will definitely not be good." Hou Dongsheng scolded angrily.
