Sword Moon Lyrics
Chapter 1198 Rumors are spreading
Zheng Tong understood what his master meant. The so-called "way to survive" was to honestly confess the mastermind behind the crime, return the stolen treasures, and redeem the crime, and maybe save his life.
He shook his head slowly, "Master, I can't do this... both sides are kind to you, disciple... disciple..."
He was favored by Fei Hongzi to save his life and teach his art, and he would never betray him.
Shi Feng let out a long sigh. Although Zheng Tong and he were their own masters, their hearts were as steely and they would be benevolent if they asked for mercy. Why should he waste any more words!
He looked at the youngest disciple again. Master Xuan Yi said that if he could not persuade him, Zheng Tongming would be punished within three days.
Zheng Tong's breath was weak and his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. He had been tortured for several days and had no water on his face. His lips had many cracks.
Shi Feng took out a bottle from his bag and said, "Xiao Tong, drink some water."
When Zheng Tong saw it, he got the strength from nowhere, swooped over, grabbed the jade bottle, raised his head and drank all the water in the bottle.
Suddenly, he remembered that his master had given him the Black Phoenix Pill and often asked about his "condition"; he taught him the double-flying sword technique step by step, and tailor-made double hooks and double swords for himself; he went to Lushan to deliver a letter. He was worried about his safety and gave him many treasures. .
Especially in the battle to defeat the Demon Cauldron in Liuji Town, there were Demon Puppet Sect monks on all sides. Master tried his best to stand in front of him and protect himself...
Tears welled up from the corners of his eyes. Zheng Tong put down the porcelain bottle, bowed deeply, and choked with sobs, "Master, you, the kindness you have shown to your disciples... I can only repay you in the next life..."
Shi Feng's eyes were also red, "Silly boy, the master-disciple relationship is fate after all. When the fate is over, it will be broken up. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, tell me. As long as you don't violate the sect's rules, I will definitely help you." You realize it.”
Zheng Tong raised his head, his eyes blurred with tears, "Thank you Master, I want to trouble you Master for one last thing. After I die, I hope Master will send my ashes back to Beiling..."
"Do you want to be buried in your hometown?"
"Yes! The fox is dead, and the disciple wants to be buried next to his parents. I don't want to be a lonely ghost!"
"Don't worry, I promise you this."
............
In the Songbaiyuan study room, everyone dispersed, leaving only Master Xuan Yi and Master Li Qing.
"Qingshi, what do you think?"
Master Li Qing shook his head, "There is no flaw. Maybe Elder Shi really has no problem?"
Xuandao was noncommittal, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, thinking undecided.
After a full quarter of an hour, he slowly said, "Qingshi, I have come up with a plan for you..."
One day later, Shi Feng was practicing the nameless body-refining technique in Hongsong Ridge, when suddenly there was a knock on the door of the cave.
When he opened it, he saw that it was the four disciples Feng Yuanshan, Wei Peng, Xin Zijin, and Lu Zhen.
After the master and apprentice sat down, Shi Feng saw that the four of them looked a little strange.
"What's wrong? You four are so mysterious!"
Wei Peng coughed and said, "Master, have you heard a rumor?"
"What?"
Wei Peng leaned forward, "Some people said that the Zhongwu Temple was closed a few days ago. In fact, something big happened. A traitor stole the sect's treasures, killed Du Yulou of Fentian Peak, and escaped. Later, he was Elder Li captured him..."
Shi Feng was slightly stunned. After all, this matter could not be contained and spread.
"Hmm, why do you ask this?"
Wei Peng said anxiously, "Disciple also heard that the traitor is actually our junior brother Zheng Tong! Master, is this rumor true?"
Shi Feng sighed and said nothing.
His expression was the answer.
Wei Peng refused to believe it, "How could Junior Brother Zheng be a demon spy? Could it be a mistake? Or was he framed?"
Shi Feng was unwilling to reveal the details, so he turned around and asked, "Yuanshan, you were handling daily affairs with Master and the others at Iron Sword Peak. Did you hear anything?"
Feng Yuanshan reported back, "The disciples heard their discussion and said that Junior Brother Zheng was a spy of the Demon Puppet Sect. Many years ago, the Demon Puppet Sect was preparing to go to war with our Taiji Sect, so he was sent as an undercover agent.
After the war between the two sects, Junior Brother Zheng kept leaking news to the Demon Puppet Sect, causing our Tai Chi Sect to suffer heavy losses..."
Speaking of this, Feng Yuanshan had a complicated expression. On the one hand, Zheng Tong was his junior brother and they usually had a good relationship, but on the other hand, the Demon Puppet Sect had indeed killed many disciples of the Taiji Sect, including the fourth junior brother, Shao Longbo.
Shi Feng's face darkened and he shook his head, "No! Zheng Tongruo was a traitor to the Demon Puppet Sect. None of us came back alive from the battle in Liuji Town. Yuanshan, go on, what other rumors are there?"
"...They also said that Junior Brother Zheng's surname is actually Mo, and he is a descendant of Old Monster Mo. After the Demon Puppet Sect was destroyed, he felt resentful, especially when the body of my Tai Chi sect general, Old Monster Mo, was placed in the arsenal. He even thought that It was a great shame and humiliation, so he took advantage of the opportunity to patrol the Zhongwu Temple and secretly stole the bones of Old Monster Mo.
As a result, he was accidentally discovered by Du Yulou, and the two fought fiercely. Junior Brother Zheng killed Du Yulou and escaped from Shigu Mountain in a hurry.
This incident alarmed Elder Li from Yantailing, and he hurriedly chased him out. With his magical power, Junior Brother Zheng was no match for him, and he was captured alive as soon as he left the mountain.
The sect strictly interrogated Junior Brother Zheng, but Junior Brother Zheng refused to tell where the bones of Old Monster Mo were hidden.
For this reason, the sect also sent many disciples to search, but no bones of Old Monster Mo were found. "
"Zheng Tong stole the corpse of Mo Laoguai?" Shi Feng was slightly stunned. This was the first time he heard this news. "Don't discuss this matter anymore. If someone asks about Zheng Tong, hey, don't defend it or add insult to injury. Just say you know nothing."
Feng Yuanshan and the other four saw it and knew that Zheng Tong's story must be true.
Wei Peng murmured, "Master, can I go to see Junior Brother Zheng?"
Shi Feng shook his head, "No! You go back and do your own things."
.........
Zheng Tong's story gradually spread. Tiejian Peak raised a spy from the Demon Puppet Sect. During the war that year, many news were leaked by him...
For a time, the sect was talking about it. It had only been more than 20 years since the battle with the Demon Puppet Sect. The pain of many cultivators had not yet subsided. They gritted their teeth and demanded that the spy be severely punished.
Seeing that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, there were all kinds of rumors.
On this day, the head of the sect Xuanyi summoned all the cultivators above the Jindan level from various sects to gather in the Patriarch Hall.
Taoist Xuanyi said a few words briefly. The battle with the Demon Puppet Sect was over. The sect needed to rest and recuperate. The sects and halls should stop discussing the matter.
After Xuanyi finished speaking, Taoist Dao Chong and Shi Feng spoke.
The two elders of Tiejian Peak admitted their mistakes on the spot, admitting that they were negligent in prevention, which led to the success of the traitor, and asked the sect to punish them.
Dao Chong was an elder of the sect, and Shi Feng had been very popular in recent years. He and Master Li Qing were called "the two prides". It was rare for these two to apologize in public.
Taoist Xuanyi comforted him gently, "The two elders are too serious. There have been many spies plotting against our sect, but this time it happened to be Tiejian Peak. What crime have you committed? Please sit down quickly."
Everyone thought to themselves, the head of the sect is so partial!
After Dao Chong and Shi Feng sat down, Fairy Feng stood up immediately. She did not say anything about Tiejian Peak, but only said that He Dong died tragically when he went out that year. It must be a spy who leaked the news, and he should be severely punished.
When she said this, some people nodded slightly. After all, everyone present had relatives or friends who died at the hands of the Demon Puppet Sect.
After the first one, there was the second one. For a while, everyone in the Patriarch Hall was clamoring, and they wanted to drag out the traitor, cut off his flesh, and peel off his skin to relieve this hatred.
