Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 71 Blood Rain

"Hey, Master, you don't eat enough. Is it because my apprentice is not good at cooking and the food is not to your liking?" Gardenia's voice came from beside her.

"No..." Her words brought him back to his senses, and his eyes suddenly turned into a smile when he looked at her, "Gardenia did a good job, but she is already in the Nascent Soul realm, so she is not good at this." The appetite.”

"Oh..." Gardenia saw the smile in his eyes and nodded in understanding.She only knew that Master rarely sat and ate with her like this, and it was great to be able to do so now.

After eating, at Beimian's signal, Gardenia stayed in Fengnan Hall and played "Pleasant Song", and practiced it five or six times in a row. She was quite familiar with the tune of this piece. It's not as raw as it was at first, and when you listen to it attentively, it feels like a fairyland.

While she was playing, a paper crane suddenly flew in from outside Fengnan Hall. The paper crane was actually blood red. It flew very fast and urgently. When it flew close to Beimian, it made a low cry. The sound was short and urgent, as if urging someone to concentrate their magic power to open it.

"Sound-transmission paper crane book!" Gardenia recognized it and looked at Beimian unconsciously.

Beimian frowned, thinking that the message-transmitting paper crane was looking for him. He opened his palm and condensed the magic power slightly in his palm. The blood-red paper crane immediately stretched out and appeared in front of Beimian's master and apprentice. In front of me, there was nothing more than a page of blood-red letter paper.

Gardenia frowned and took a closer look. The blood-red sound-transmission paper crane did not transmit sound this time, but only two huge blood-red words were written on the letter paper: "Kill".

Before the blood-red ink was completely dry, Bei Mian stretched out his fingers and twirled it, then brought it close to his nose and smelled it, his face changed drastically, "It's human blood!"

"What's going on, Master?" Gardenia couldn't help but ask.

"If I admit my mistake correctly, there is only one sect using this kind of blood-red message paper crane in Tianhe Continent, and that is Blood Rain Palace among the seven sects." Beimian collected the letter. Entering the sleeves of the robe, "Only the word 'kill' is written on this book. The matter must be urgent and it is difficult to announce it verbally, so I wrote a letter asking for help like this."

He thought for a moment, then frowned and looked at Gardenia, "Gardenia, since I am planning to take you down the mountain to practice in the six sects as a teacher, we might as well start from the Blood Rain Palace."

Beimian told Gardenia to start preparations immediately and set off immediately.

Gardenia thought about it for a moment and realized that the master's plan to go to the six sects for training did not include Yan Yingdian. This was just because the king of Yan Yingdian was flashy and arrogant, did not follow rules and regulations, and was at odds with the other six sects.Therefore, this trip down the mountain was to avoid Yan Ying Palace.

Due to the urgency of the matter, Beimian only informed Chen Tianrui and Long Leyin about this trip, and then left Taixu Mountain with Gardenia.

They were wielding swords all the way without stopping. They spent most of the day wielding swords and only rested for an hour or two at night.

But even so, the two of them only arrived at the Blood Rain Palace three days later.

When they arrived, a steady drizzle was falling over the palace gates of Blood Rain Palace, but Gardenia was surprised to find that the raindrops were actually blood red, and when they fell on her palms, they actually condensed into one or two drops of blood-red water that looked like human blood.

"This Blood Rain Palace often rains blood that is similar to human blood, so it is named Blood Rain Palace." Bei Mian explained when he saw her surprise.

The thin and secret rain of blood fell on Gardenia's hair, face, and body one after another. It was ice cold. She held some of the rain of blood in her hand and sniffed it close to her nose. There was no human blood at all. Fishy smell.However, this bloody rain made Gardenia feel sad for no reason, and reminded her of her deceased parents. She stood in the bloody rain with squinted eyes, lowered her eyes to block the moisture inside, and thought to herself: This rain of blood is like tears of blood shed by someone, which makes people feel more sad.How sad and tragic does it take to make people shed tears of blood?
Beimian didn't say much, rang the palace bell to greet him, waited for the disciples of Blood Rain Palace to arrive, and took them into the boundary of Blood Rain Palace.

The person who came to welcome the guests was not the head of the Blood Rain Palace, but the third greatest protector - Wu Zhengting.

As soon as Gardenia saw the person coming, she unconsciously took a closer look.

This person is about 40 to [-] years old. He has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a tall and straight figure. He is wearing a long ink-colored coat. The exquisite stitches on the long coat are embroidered with a landscape painting, which makes the person wearing this long coat look a little more... A leisurely elegance that is different from ordinary people.

But this leisurely elegance was in sharp contrast to the worried expression on his face at this time.

When Wu Zhengting saw that it was the jade-faced Beimian of Taixu Mountain who came in person with his apprentice, he immediately stepped forward and bowed to him as a big gift, "Immortal Lord, you are here. The leader is upright and has good intentions, but If we end up like this, you must seek justice for us..."

Beimian stretched out his hand to support his body, which was about to bow down. He frowned slightly and said, "Did you transmit the paper crane message?"

When he saw Wu Zhengting wiping his face and nodding his head in confusion, he said, "What exactly happened? Please explain it in detail slowly."

It turned out that three days ago, the headmaster and the two guardians of the Blood Rain Palace were studying a set of exercises in the secret room where the old magic weapon of the secret town sect was hidden. However, an accident happened at this time. According to Wu Zhengting, the matter is now separated It has been three days since the discovery, and the bodies of the head of the Blood Rain Palace and the two guardians are still in the secret room, and no one dares to touch them.

"What three days?" Beimian's face under the jade-colored mask also showed surprise.

Generally, after a person dies, if he has not been buried in the coffin after three days, there will be a corpse odor. The Blood Rain Palace also has a lot of scruples in its actions. It has been three days since the death of the dignified leader, and he has not yet been buried in the coffin.

"The villain just wants to wait for the Immortal Lord to come over and check for himself who the leader of the Blood Rain Palace and the two guardians were harmed by, so he makes the decision privately. After the leader and them die, I will find someone. The secret room has been sealed and no one is allowed to come near. I just want to wait for the Immortal Lord to come and make decisions for my Blood Rain Palace."

Wu Zhengting wiped his face again and knelt down with a serious look on his face.

When Beimian heard this, he sighed, with a hint of reproach in his tone, "Zhengting, the dead are the most important, how could you let the dead...sigh..." He couldn't continue at this point. , thinking that something big happened in the Blood Rain Palace, and it was not the time to blame Wu Zhengting at this time.

Gardenia also felt strange that either Wu Zhengting was not a rigid and pedantic person, or he had some conspiracy hidden in his heart.

He could have led people to examine the suspicious points on the body, and then let the deceased be buried as soon as possible, and then ask the head of Taixu Mountain Bingming, the leader of the seven sects, and the two guardians for the cause of death, but he had to wait for them to come before checking. , if she and her master were delayed on the road for a few more days, I don’t know what the body would look like...

It is already the third day. Although there has been a cold rain of blood over the Blood Rain Palace for these three days, but according to what Wu Zhengting just said, the secret room has been sealed for another three days, and maybe the body has begun to rot. .
