Nightmare Apostle

"This junior is from the Rongcheng Patrol Department, and Captain Qu is my colleague." Faced with this underworld master, Yang Xiao told the truth.

"Since ancient times, heroes have been born young. It is not easy for the two of you to work together to kill a ghost-level evil cultivator. Our academy would like to thank you very much this time." The old man nodded to Yang Xiao.

"Senior, I'm very grateful. If you hadn't deigned to protect this junior personally, I'm afraid my head would have been picked off long ago." Yang Xiao didn't dare to follow the senior's words, so he had to bow again. No matter what, he saved his life several times. Second-rate.

"Do you have any grudges with the Yuyuan Sect?" the old man looked at Yang Xiao and asked.

"It's a long story. It was during a mission that the juniors bumped into each other, and that's how... they became enemies."

In front of this person, Yang Xiao knew very well that he couldn't act too tactful. After all, if the other person has been able to survive until now, he must have seen all kinds of people. Being too tactful will only make people annoying, and there is no need to mention some of the official language that fools people. .

"You are very powerful. I heard that woman say that you took away two of their magic weapons. One is the knife in your hand, and the other is a mirror. Is this true?" The old man said in a rare expression to Yang Xiao Out of curiosity.

Yang Xiao didn't dare to tell lies, so he could only nod, "Yes, junior...Junior got two magical weapons from the Yuyuan Sect by chance."

Seeing that Yang Xiao was getting more and more nervous, the old man suddenly laughed, "Why, are you still afraid that I and you won't be able to use two magic weapons?"

"No!" Yang Xiao immediately explained, "Senior, how can I fall in love with my little tricks with my magical skills? However, if senior thinks these evil magic tools are unsightly, please take them away. It would be most appropriate for senior to take care of them on your behalf."

Hearing this, the old man laughed, rubbed his beard, and looked Yang Xiao up and down, "Not bad, it's interesting. You are quite good at life."

Yang Xiao felt complicated. It was true that the old man saved their lives, but no one knew whether they would be silenced next. After all, according to this person's identity, killing the two of them was the same as killing two chickens. almost.

But the old man did not embarrass Yang Xiao. He just sat down and asked Yang Xiao to tell a complete story about what he saw that night, including the last moments of the two elders Liu and Yu. Yang Xiao did not dare to neglect and told everything he knew. Come out, nothing happens The old man nodded slowly, and the next second, Yang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes wide, and saw the old man casually scratching his side, and a gap opened in the space fluctuation. The old man put his hand in, and touched it after a moment. A bloody human head emerged.

The person's hair and beard are all covered in blood. Through the blood, you can see the messy silver hair on the head. This is an old man's head.

The face was twisted, and only half of the purple tongue remained in Yuan Zi's open mouth. More importantly, Yang Xiao knew this head. This was one of the two elders who were beheaded in the academy that night.

And when the old man grabbed the old man's head, a terrifying scene appeared. The already dead head suddenly began to shake for no reason, especially the two slightly closed eyes, with the turbid eyeballs inside flipping up and down. It felt as if his memory was being forcibly extracted. It was at this moment that Yang Xiao finally understood why this old man was able to find him before the murderer.

This man was so savvy that he could actually spy on the images that the deceased's eyes had seen, and it was in those broken images that the old man saw himself.

The underworld apostle is so terrifying!

And listening to what Han Jun said, he didn't recognize the old man's identity at first. You know, Han Jun is the second seat of the Presbytery. His status in the academy is second only to the dean and the chief of the Presbytery. He is well-deserved. The third person, and he didn't recognize the old man's identity immediately, which meant that the old man rarely appeared in the academy, and he was probably a strong man from the older generation.

Han Jun said personally that even the dean who is also at the underworld level does not have the means of this person. It seems that the old man is a figure like a sea god in the academy. Unless it is some major matter related to the life and death of the academy, he will not come out easily.

Sure enough, these famous families all have their own trump cards. Looking at it this way, even if the old ghost in Taoist robes is really released, he will be suppressed by all the masters. These top masters are the foundation for the Confucian Academy of Sciences to gain a foothold in the world. .

As for the grievances between Rulin Academy and Yiling Academy, Yang Xiao was not interested, and that was not something he should be concerned about.

However, Yang Xiao deliberately ignored it, but the old man who didn't want to have anything to do took the initiative to bring it up, "Do you know what Han Jun said about Yiling Academy?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Xiao suddenly became nervous. It was not a good thing to know too much, especially about such fatal things. He did not dare to speak and just shook his head.

However, the old man spoke as if no one else was watching, "Ten years ago, the dean of Yiling Academy accidentally obtained a fragment of an ancient book, which recorded an important clue. In order to decipher this clue, at the Confucian Academy of Sciences At the invitation, including the dean of Yiling Academy, A group of people secretly came to our Confucian Academy to participate in the meeting. The itinerary and meeting content were top secret. But unexpectedly, after the meeting, when the dean of Yiling Academy was returning, something unexpected happened. Everyone in Yiling Academy, including the dean, The entire group disappeared and their whereabouts are still unknown.”

"Are there no corpses?" Seeing that he couldn't escape, Yang Xiao asked bravely.

The old man shook his head slowly and sighed: "No, it would be easier if there were corpses, but this mysterious disappearance will inevitably make people think deeply. Many forces in the world suspect that our Confucian Academy has done something about it."

"Is that ancient book lost too?"

"Of course, people outside speculate that our Confucian Academy has figured out the clue and got rid of the Yiling Academy group just to keep the secret for ourselves." The old man's tone was a little more complicated and helpless. .

"It's normal to have such speculation, but I believe that your institute will never do such a thing. I have an old relationship with the disciples of your institute, and he is a trustworthy friend." Yang Xiao recalled Yang Cha and felt that he could I can afford this compliment.

"And to take a step back, even if your hospital had such a plan, it would not choose to take action at such a sensitive moment. The distinguished guest came to the door with a heavy treasure, but on the way back he encountered a disaster and the whole army was wiped out, and the treasure was also lost. This...if this could be done It's too stupid." Yang Xiao analyzed.

"You are right, we have a clear conscience, but people's words are terrible. In recent years, Yiling Academy has regarded us as a thorn in its side, looking for trouble again and again, and...::::" After a pause, the old man's tone suddenly changed. It turned cold, "Their methods are getting more and more excessive!"

Yang Xiao didn't dare to judge this kind of thing. This was a game between two big forces. He didn't want to get involved, especially since his identity was sensitive and he represented the position of the Rongcheng Patrol Department and even the Patrol Department. Even if His position is low, but he has a team and a backer after all.

"Old senior, it might be better if you don't contact the senior officials of Yiling Academy and talk things out." Yang Xiao could only speak official words to Tangsai.

"We did everything we could, we said everything we needed to say, but they didn't listen at all. They just clamored for us to hand over the murderer to pay for his life, and to return the original fragment of the precious ancient book. They thought it was something It's still in our hands." The old man turned to look at Han Jun's body. It seems that this is not the first time, let alone the last time. The relationship between the two families is dead.

After a pause, the old man withdrew his gaze and looked at Yang Xiao again, but this time his gaze changed slightly and became extremely deep, as if he could see through Yang Xiao's soul. "I've finished telling my story. Tell me about yours." story."

"Me?" Yang Xiao was stunned.

"Looking at your age, you should have just joined the Patrol Department, but you have a lot of magic weapons on your body, and their quality is even rarer. But the more magic weapons are not the better, the most important thing is that they should suit you, otherwise you will only be seeking your own death. ." The old man spoke.

"Thank you for your advice, senior." Yang Xiao was very polite. Someone had said similar words to him before.

But all this is not something he can decide. He does not have the right to own the magic weapon. It is the exclusive right of the good sister, and he only has the right to use it.

"How many magic weapons do you have on you?" the old man asked casually.

"Senior, five pieces." Yang Xiao habitually hides his opera robes, which is very important to him.

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly laughed and slowly shook his head, "No, you missed one thing, it should be 6

pieces. "

As soon as these words came out, Yang Xiao was instantly alert. He didn't expect that this guy could even see Ming Yi's sleeping robe. Now he was in trouble.

However, Yang Xiao immediately thought of a remedy and pretended to be embarrassed, "Senior said,

However, there is one... There is a question about the origin of one of the magic weapons, so I dare not tell my senior directly. "

"Oh?" The old man raised his eyebrows, "Which one is it?"

With that said, Yang Xiao used his remaining right hand to pull out the ghost whisk, lay it flat, and respectfully handed it over, "This is the one, senior, please take a look."

"He is the little white-robed Buddha under the Black Buddha Mother. He is a figure in the misty land of the southeast, but I didn't expect that...::

." The old man returned the ghost whisk to Yang Xiao and sighed with emotion: "This magical weapon of his fell into your hands. "

"This is probably a magical weapon at the pinnacle of the Netherworld. I got it by chance from this junior. Because it comes from the cult Black Buddha Mother, so... I dare not say anything. I hope that my senior will understand." Yang Xiao put away the whisk and spoke again. Apologize to the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly laughed and shook his head with a smile, "You are really ignorant. How could the little white Buddha's protective magic weapon under the majestic Black Buddha Mother's seat be reduced to the Nether level? It is clearly a Hades level magic weapon, and Even among the underworld, it is not weak."

"Netherworld level?" Yang Xiao was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this thing to be so valuable, no, so valuable.

"It's genuine." The old man nodded.

"Thank you for your advice, senior. I... I've learned a lot." Yang Xiao once again raised his hand to the old man with impeccable etiquette.

The old man patted Yang Xiao's hand gently, then narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Now it's time to talk about your other magical weapon."

"Which one?" Yang Xiao didn't know why.

The old man's gaze moved downwards, staring at the flash of red that accidentally appeared under Yang Xiao's broken coat, "Your innermost...this piece of clothing."
