Too much fruit

Chapter 286
When it was just dawn, fishermen on Yongyuan Lake discovered the drifting boat, and naturally also discovered the body on the boat.

Since the corpse was not dressed like an ordinary person, the fishermen were about to report it to the government.

Then not long after, two afterimages flashed, and two figures wearing cyan attire and wearing iron orders appeared.

A majestic heavenly gate was carved on the iron order, surrounded by cloud patterns. As the iron order shook, the cloud patterns also flowed faintly, just like real clouds, which was quite magical.

When the onlookers on the shore saw the clothes of the two people and looked at the tokens, they thought someone whispered: "The Shenxing Taibao is here."

Then, everyone stepped aside, obviously very familiar with the identities of these two people.

Shenxing Taibao is subordinate to Nantiansi. In addition to delivering messages, some people also perform other functions in Nantiansi, such as investigating murder cases and chasing murderers.

There is no way, who told Shenxing Taibao to run fast?

Feng Yunjie straightened his clothes, with a solemn expression on his stubbled face, and led the young man behind him onto the boat to inspect the body.

The young man who came with him looked to be in his twenties, but judging from his actions, he looked quite experienced and was obviously not a novice.After getting on the boat, the young man took out a book, flipped through it quickly, and finally stopped on a certain page.

"'Ghost Whip' Chu Jiang, seventh-level realm, was originally a gangster, but was later accepted as a non-staff member by our company." The young man quickly read out the record.

Feng Yunjie glanced at the broken whip on the boat and said, "It should be him."

"This... was actually recruited into Nantiansi by Zuo Shu." The young man said this with a look of surprise.

The chief envoy is already a high-level person in the Nantian Division. Only the fifth rank can hold the position. Even if you look at the world, he is also a figure.

These two people really didn't expect that this former criminal thief would be related to Nan Tiansi's emissary.

"No wonder he asked the master to come..." The young man felt astonished.

Feng Yunjie, on the other hand, had already begun to carefully examine the body.

However, no matter how he checked, he could only find no injuries. Even if he injected Zhenqi into the body, he could not find any internal injuries.

"It doesn't seem like he was intimidated by the momentum." Feng Yunjie whispered.

If the difference in strength is too great, it is possible to be crushed to death by the momentum. However, most of these people will suffer from liver and gallbladder injuries, dilated pupils, and have the characteristics of being frightened to death. People who have been dealing with corpses all year round can see this. .

In other words, it can basically be ruled out that it was done by vulgar warriors.

Then all that's left are spells that hurt the soul.

"Has Judge Cui from the Yin Law Department returned?" Feng Yunjie asked.

"Not yet," the apprentice shook his head. "The first one is still in Yongzhou, and Judge Cui has been detained in Yongzhou and has not returned yet. Recently, the Yinlu Division is unwilling to cooperate with us in investigating the case."

At this point, the apprentice showed a wry smile.

The first one must suppress Yin Lusi this time. This should be a good thing for Nantiansi, but it may not be possible for those who usually come into contact with Yin Lusi.

For a murder case like this, in the past, all one had to do was go to the Yin Lu Division to clear up connections and ask Judge Cui to tell him where the person died, and then he would have a good start.Unlike now, you can't even estimate where the other person died.

Longyuan Lake is so big, who knows where this boat came from.

"Then we can only check it ourselves."

Feng Yunjie took out a storage bag, put the body away, and then suddenly waved his hand to let the boat leave the shore.

"Master, where are you going?"

"Iron Pillar Temple."

As Feng Yunjie spoke, he used his strong zhenqi to control the boat and headed straight for the Longevity Mountain in the distance at an extremely fast speed. It was a lightning-fast ride along the way.After a while, they came to the nearby lake.

Ships of various sizes also came into their sight at the same time, and there were many people in front of the Iron Pillar View not far away. It was obviously early in the morning, but it was quite lively.

"Master, I'm here for Young Master Jiang." The young man whispered.

In one night, the news of Jiang Li and Yuan Zhen's fight had spread throughout the city and became the talk of the streets.

Most people don't know the current undercurrent in the capital of God, and even some of the children of aristocratic families and officials may not know about it. After hearing this news, they naturally want to take a look at the two of them.

Especially this year, the flowers in the city of God are blooming all year round, which is a grand scene that has not been seen in hundreds of years. It attracts elegant people from all over the world to come together, and the two collide, making it even more lively.

"Master, what should I do?" the young man asked.

"Just avoid it."

Feng Yunjie grabbed his apprentice's shoulder and turned it into a blurry afterimage. In an instant, he swept across a long distance in a straight line and came to a remote corner of Tiezhu Temple, crossing the wall.

The outer formation of Tiezhu Temple was forcibly broken through by Jiang Li. Before it could be repaired, Feng Yunjie easily entered the Taoist temple.

He had never thought of visiting him through a proper way, because Jiang Li was currently preparing for war, and Tiezhu Temple closed its doors to thank guests. It was impossible to get in through a proper way, so he had to use a side door.

It's just that this kind of behavior may easily lead to enemies with Jiang Li.

Feng Yunjie should be able to figure this out based on his experience in the martial arts world, so judging from his intention, he would rather turn against Jiang Li than come here to investigate.

The young man also understood what his master meant, and he concentrated secretly, ready to deal with sudden changes at any time.

However, before they could make any move, a little Taoist boy hurried over. When he saw the two of them, he immediately greeted them, bowed his head in a dignified manner, and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, poor Taoist Qingfeng, should you?" At the request of fellow Taoist Jiang, I would like to invite you two to Baopu Hall for a while."

Feng Yunjie's expression immediately changed slightly.

With the pace of this little Taoist priest, I am afraid that before he heard the instructions and set off, the two of them were still in the boat.

At that time, they were not sure about entering the Iron Pillar Temple, and they were not even sure where they would climb over the wall. How could Jiang Li make a judgment and ask the little Taoist boy to greet them.

Feng Yunjie felt heavy in his heart.

Before he even saw Jiang Li, his heart was already tense.

After Qingfeng finished speaking, he led the way ahead.Master and disciple Feng Yunjie looked at each other, and after looking away, Feng Yunjie was the first to follow.

The two of them walked along with the breeze, and it took almost half a quarter of an hour before they arrived at Baopu Hall.

This is a hall for entertaining individuals, and there is a bamboo forest behind it. The breeze blows slowly, bringing with it bursts of fresh air, and a figure breaks into the sight of the two of them in a very unexpected way.

He was originally not in the perception of the two, or rather within the perception of the two. There seemed to be an empty space there, but when his eyes shifted, he discovered that there was a person standing in the empty space with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Li turned his back to the two of them, and in front of him was the shadow of a compass, slowly turning and evolving into hexagrams.

From Feng Yunjie's perspective, he could only see a corner of the compass and couldn't understand its meaning. However, when his eyes touched that corner, he felt as if he had been seen through.

It seems that there are no secrets in front of the other party.

"Nantiansi," Jiang Li said calmly, "but I don't know why Nantiansi came to look for Jiang?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he concluded that Feng Yunjie was here to find him.

A kind of nervousness and fear arose in his heart. Even though Feng Yunjie was both in the sixth grade, he couldn't help but feel afraid to face Jiang Li.

He forcibly suppressed the negative emotions in his heart, clasped his fists and said: "Nantian Division Feng Yunjie and his apprentice Xiao Gao have met you. Today I came to see you. It turns out that a non-staff member of our department died on Longyuan Lake. The cause of death is unknown. I have been ordered to investigate. , as your Excellency is nearby, I came to inquire." Feng Yunjie was quite polite, not only because he was afraid in front of Jiang Li, but also because of the other party's background.

Although Jiang's family had broken down, Jiang Li, who was now hooked up with Gongsun's family, was not someone who could be bullied, at least not by Feng Yunjie.

It's a pity that this man can't help himself in the court, and there are things he can't just do if he doesn't want to do it.

"Do you suspect that I did it?" Jiang Li asked calmly.

"Don't dare."

Feng Yunjie held his fists and lowered his head, "Just asking."

Having said that, if the other party knew that he went directly to Iron Pillar Temple and found him, he would know that Feng Yunjie suspected Jiang Li of doing it.

"Just asking...heh."

Jiang Li turned around, stretched out his hand, and an illusory compass circled in front of him.

"I know why such a hexagram appears. It should be here."

He pointed at the compass and said: "Then I will tell you, the cause of death of the person you mentioned, the hexagram symbol is the upper stem and lower sunda, and the weather is dirty. However, this symbol moves in the four lines and becomes the sunda hexagram. But It is estimated that it is a set of gold and wood. The death of that person should be a sword."

"But if it is a sword, it is not difficult to tell based on your experience. Therefore, the cause of the other party's death is not on the outside, but on the inside. It is difficult for ordinary people to detect, so it can be judged to be some kind of soul-killing method. Although Jiang has some knowledge of swords, he If you are not good at this, it is impossible to do this. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

As the words are told, the compass evolves, which is exactly the hexagram of Tianfengjiao.

Although the answer given by Jiang Li was mysterious and difficult to verify, given Jiang Li's status, giving such an answer already gave Nan Tiansi face.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Feng Yunjie lowered his head again, sweat stains quietly appeared on his forehead.

Everything on his side seemed to be under the control of the young master of the Jiang family. Feng Yunjie was completely unable to take the initiative and could only respond passively.

He can only be.

"Then leave." Jiang Li waved his sleeves to see the guest off.

"Yes."

Feng Yunjie led the others in a somewhat embarrassed manner and was about to leave.

Just when he turned around, he suddenly paused and asked, "There are outsiders disturbing the peace outside Tiezhu Temple. Do I need to send them away?"

Jiang Li is preparing for the battle on the first day of September and should be in rest. Visits from outsiders will only disturb his purity and affect his state.

However, Jiang Li wanted to lure the snake out of its hole, so he was naturally happy to be disturbed so that he could identify those with ulterior motives among them and follow the clues.

And it is impossible for these people to disturb his state of mind.

In theory, this should be the case, but when Feng Yunjie spoke, Jiang Li felt a sense of irritation in his heart. He wished he could expel all the disturbing people outside the audience, and even felt like three corpses leaping into anger.

He lowered his eyes slightly and his voice became cold, "It's none of your business, get out!"

"Yes."

Feng Yunjie quickly left with his apprentice.

The two of them climbed over the wall just as they had come, and walked quickly until they reached the boat, and then stopped.

"Master's good intentions are actually exchanged for such harsh words," Xiao Gao couldn't help but said angrily, "Who does he think he is?"

"He is a strong man who can crush you to death."

Feng Yunjie wiped his cold sweat and scolded: "Misfortune comes from your mouth, be careful with your words and deeds. That's it for today. Let's go back first and look for information on martial arts skills that are proficient in swordsmanship."

"Master, do you believe what he says?" Xiao Gao asked in surprise.

"It's always the same direction."

Feng Yunjie said, getting lucky again and letting the boat sail away.

······
······
In Baopu Hall.

Jiang Li meditated and adjusted his breath, and his pure Yang Taoist heart gradually eliminated the distracting thoughts in his heart. When he opened his eyes, he had regained his clarity.

"It can actually arouse my anger silently. If it weren't for the Pure Yang Taoist Heart, I might not even be able to detect this anger."

Pure Yang Dao Heart, Tao Heart Pure Yang, Jiang Li will never be disturbed by negative emotions, his mood is always flawless, so this distracting thought is as eye-catching as a mouse excrement, this kind of anger is also very sudden, Jiang Li noticed it directly.

If it were an ordinary person, it would not feel abrupt at all. The thought arises from the heart, and naturally, it will not be affected by this anger.

If Jiang Li fails to suppress this anger, he will forcibly expel those who are watching. If there is a conflict, he may even use force.

There are many people outside the temple who are descendants of aristocratic families. It would be better to say that without any background or ability, they may not be able to come outside the temple, and they will be driven away by the guards of the fourth prince.If Jiang Li hurts them, it would be fine if he hits the enemy, but if he offends those with other stances, he is provoking the enemy in vain.

"I didn't expect that my enemy would be so capable."

He pressed his hand on the shadow of the compass, and the hexagram changed slightly, from the Xun hexagram back to the Tianfeng hexagram.

Tianfengqi, Qian above Sunda and below, one yin and five yang, is the first hexagram of Qian palace.The hexagram Jiao uses yin to meet yang and softness to take advantage of hardness, which means unexpected encounters.

Jiang Li did have a divination, but not for the cause of death of the man in black, but for the person behind the man in black.

Tian Fengjiu's unexpected encounter seems to have happened here.

Feng Yunjie and the man in black were probably in the same group. He came to Jiang Li not only because he suspected that Jiang Li had killed the man in black, but also because he wanted to further stumbling upon Jiang Li.

As for the changing hexagram, if we interpret it normally, we can indeed come up with the theory that metal and wood are a set of things. The handle of the sword is wood and the blade is gold, which can indeed fit this hexagram.However, Jiang Li was the one who took action. He shot the arrow first and then drew the target. He just used an applicable saying to fit it in.

If you don't know, you may really think that Jiang Li has foresight, but in fact, this is completely made up by Jiang Li.

"Master, do you know what kind of Taoist fruit can silently arouse their evil thoughts? You don't even need to use your spiritual consciousness." Jiang Li asked.

Spiritual magic can indeed cause evil thoughts in others, and can even weave illusions and control people's minds, but those kinds of magic can never be hidden from Jiang Li.

The method used by the other party is undoubtedly more sophisticated. There is no fluctuation of spiritual consciousness at all, and it naturally triggers thoughts. That is, Jiang Li has a Pure Yang Dao Heart, so he can detect and eliminate it at the first time.

This was already difficult to describe using magic, and Jiang Li even suspected that it was Dao Fruit magical power.

"Although there are not many such Taoist fruits, you can still find them all over the world."

There was also a hint of coldness in Tianxuan's voice, "For example, in the Buddhist Kingdom, there is a kind of Tao Fruit that can be achieved, and that is the Son of Heaven Demon among the four demons. This kind of Tao Fruit will be achieved after Karma Tathagata is born. They are all captured by the Fire Mansion Buddha Prison, and the demons of the Son of Heaven are basically the people of the Fire Mansion Buddha Prison."

"There are very few such Taoist fruits in Jiuzhou. As far as I know, there are only the Nine-tailed Fox in Huqi Mountain and the Three Corpse Gods that have been sealed away by the Jiang family in Yun County."

"The Jiang family of Yun County?!" Jiang Li raised his brows and discovered his blind spot, "Yun County, the capital of God?"

The Jiang family in Shendu Yun County was exterminated more than three years ago, leaving only one orphan, Jiang Luo.
