Chapter 1387 Darkness and Dawn

The whole of Linzi is paying attention to the Feng Gu case, of course, all the attention is in secret.

Especially when the increasingly complicated side of the case is revealed, everyone is curious and everyone avoids it.

No one will discuss this case publicly, but as long as they are qualified to know the progress of the case, everyone will keep a close eye on it.

This is very likely to be the biggest political storm since Jiang Wuqi's death!

Who can stay out of it?

As a core member of this case, Lord Jiang Wang, who is responsible for supervising the investigation of this case, has not stopped his daily practice outside of the case.

After entering the Outer Building Realm, in addition to the fixed practice in the past, there is also the development of the Hidden Star Sea and the polishing of the Star Tower...

As long as you want to move forward, there will always be something to do.

Even if it is only in terms of Taoism, the Dragon and Tiger are just beginning to form, and more practice is needed to deepen the control. And the Flame Flower Burning City is the next super Taoism that needs to be mastered.

In addition, the five instantaneous Taoist arts engraved in the Inner Palace Realm, the Decayed Wood Art, the Eight Sounds Burning Sea, the Voice-hearing Immortal State, the Five Senses Hell, and the Rage, all have a certain room for improvement in the Outer Building Realm.

It is okay that the Eight Sounds Burning Sea and the Voice-hearing Immortal State are self-created. As the vision is raised, new ideas will naturally be born. But if you want to improve the Decayed Wood Art, the Five Senses Hell, and the Rage as soon as possible, you obviously need the help of the Taoist Platform in the Great Illusion Realm.

That requires "merit"...

There are not many channels for gaining merit in the Great Illusion Realm at present. In addition to contributing a large number of martial arts, you can only earn it on the Sword Discussion Platform.

Jiang Wang is invincible at the Inner Palace level, and he can almost take whatever he wants on the Sword Discussion Platform at the Outer Building level.

He fights five times a day and has never lost a single battle so far.

If he continues like this, he may be able to reach the top of the First Outer Building of the Great Illusion with an undefeated record.

The reason why he only fought five games was that in addition to cultivation, five high-quality battles with full concentration could already provide enough gains.

If it was just a simple victory and easy to defeat the opponent, there would be no difference between five games and fifty or five hundred games for Jiang Wang.

That was not cultivation.

Jiang Wang did not enjoy the pleasure of killing the weak. He enjoyed the "uniqueness" he felt in each opponent, the aura displayed by the opponent in the battle, and the battle choices that could make him shine.

It was the accumulation of these things that could become his nourishment and make him stronger.

So he often suppressed his strength in the battle and tried many new ideas that would not be easily tried in a life-and-death battle, giving the opponent more opportunities and giving himself more opportunities.

But even so, in the battle of the fourth-grade sword arena, which has continued to this day, he has never really felt threatened.

After all, he, at the inner palace level, has fought one against four and killed four outer building realm human demons. It is difficult for ordinary outer building level cultivators, even elites who can enter the Taixu Illusion Realm, to pose any threat to him.

Especially now that the Grand Illusionary Realm is expanding rapidly, more and more cultivators have been pouring in... and there are more weak ones.

Of course, with the rapid increase in the base number, there will be more and more strong people active in the Grand Illusionary Realm.

The strong will eventually meet at the top.

Jiang Wang will certainly be the one who reaches the top.

In the fourth-grade sword arena, after each battle, the winner can earn 200 points of merit, and the loser will lose 400 points of merit.

It can be clearly seen that the more time passes, the more merit is needed in the Grand Illusionary Realm.

How much merit can support such a loss?

Analyzing from the visible trend, if you want to compete with cultivators of the same realm without scruples in the future, you also need to contribute as much merit as possible to the performance arena.

The strong will go further and further with merit, and the weak will have to continuously contribute their skills and Taoist arts to make up for the loss of merit in the use of the sword arena, maintain their own progress in the continuous battle, and evolve into a strong person.

Almost all the rules of the Grand Illusionary Realm are clearly promoting the evolution and innovation of Taoist arts, and promoting the transformation of merit.

It doesn't even matter whether these Taoist arts are powerful or effective. The key to winning more "gong" is the novelty that is unique and can open up the mind.

In turn, the gathering of countless skills will make the Taoist platform more and more powerful.

It is entirely conceivable that one day, when the Taixu Illusion Realm evolves to a certain stage, the innovation of Taoist arts will become faster and faster, and it is even very likely to promote the transformation of the world of cultivation...

Therefore, the world's powerful forces must intervene and supervise the operation of the Taixu Illusion Realm. Even a strong Taixu Sect can only share the power of the Taixu Illusion Realm.

The reason why the Taixu Illusion Realm was difficult to promote in the early stage is precisely because its potential is visible to the naked eye!

There must be conservatives blocking the way, and there must be resistance from the vested interests of the existing structure.

How the Taixu Sect persuaded the powers to join in and jointly build the Taixu Illusion Realm is also a magnificent story...

Of course, it is not yet the turn of Jiang Wang and Wen now.

He who wins every battle does not need to worry about the "price" of the sword arena at present. No matter how much, he is always the winner, without having to pay.

In Taixu Fantasy Realm, five battles a day earn a fixed 1,000 points of merit, far exceeding the monthly bonus of the blessed land.

The bonus of the 49-embraced blessed mountain in the blessed land is only 340 points, which is not enough to lose a game on the fourth-grade sword arena. The value and the difficulty of obtaining are obviously mismatched, so the significance of the blessed land is definitely not in the bonus, and it is not just about the gate to the blessed land leading to the Hongmeng space.

There must be a huge incentive for those strong men to challenge enthusiastically.

And Jiang Wang can only guess that he has never been able to touch it since he inherited the blessed land.

But he wasn't anxious. At least now I can feel the strength level of those opponents, unlike before, I couldn't even figure out how I lost.

He is approaching the strong man at that level with solid steps, and every step he takes is steady.

He knew that one day he would be able to stand there.

Even if all the levels of his blessed land are knocked down and he loses his blessed land, he will not be discouraged...

Because he knows he will win it back.

After five serious battles and careful review, Jiang Wang was about to exit Taixu Illusionary Realm when he suddenly saw an aqua blue paper crane flying over.

Reach out to catch it and unfold it.

It's Zuo Guangshu's letter.

He has been chatting with Zuo Guangshu a lot these days, but this kid has been a little strange lately. He is always talking about this and that, which makes it difficult for people to pick up the conversation.

Jiang Wang himself was always consistent, either asking about Zuo Guangshu's practice, or asking about the details of the fireworks burning the city, and how Zuo Guanglie had performed this technique before...

Today’s letter is still a bit puzzling——

"Has the golden-feathered impatiens in Qi bloomed?"

Jiang Wang wrote back: "I only know Fengxian County."

"I heard it's very beautiful."

"Really? I haven't seen it."

After a while, Zuo Guangshu’s letter flew over, and again he was inexplicable——

"Um, how are you doing, Brother Dugu these days?"

Jiang Wang replied: "I'm very fine."

Zuo Guangshu probably had nothing to talk about anymore, so he replied in a wretched tone: "Both sides, Jingmu and Mu, have massively increased their troops on the Mu Sheng front. A war is inevitable. When the world is in turmoil, please take care of yourself, brother Dugu. I’m doing very well in Chu State, and my practice is progressing very quickly… By the way, are you coming to the Mountain and Sea Realm yet?”

Jiang Wang thought for a while and wrote back: "I am in Qi State and I am troubled with everything."

Soon the paper crane came back——

"It doesn't matter, whether you love me or not."

Jiang Wang replied again, but it was all gone. There was no reply for a long time.

Maybe he went to practice, this kid has always worked hard.

As a mature man like Lord Jiang, he would certainly not argue with children. He shook his head and put the matter behind him, and exited the Taixu Illusion Realm.

What he is most concerned about right now is Feng Gu's case.

Lin Youxie has been pursuing the truth for many years, the clues that Feng Gu revealed after his death, the post of Captain of Beiya coveted by many people, the sneaky person in the morgue, and someone who directly sent someone to warn someone of his existence... …

Too many factors intertwined have made this case extremely heavy.

It's not just complicated.

It is like an extremely huge fishing net that has been spread out for many years and has entered the water very deep. Although most of it is still hidden under the water, everyone knows that it has entangled too many things and trapped too many things in the net.

To lift it up, it takes more than just strength.

Anyone who accidentally touches this net will fall into the water.

Just like the coachman who has "no trace of this person".

Speaking of which, he also deliberately used the art of remembrance to imitate the soul information of the coachman, but the induction had disappeared.

Maybe it has been killed, or maybe the strong person has wiped out the possibility of tracking... No matter what it is, such a chess piece that has been in Beiya for many years and has an innocent fortune is thrown out just to beat Jiang Wang. It is enough to verify the power of the person behind the scenes.

Or, in turn, the other party just wants to anger him?

With such a move, I would rather not ignore it?

There are so many threads that it is impossible to clarify them all.

Jiang Wang simply didn't think about it and firmly followed his own ideas.

Now he is involved in this case in a supervisory role, and the other two people handling the case, Zheng Shangming and Lin Youxie, need his cooperation. He takes the initiative and there is no need to talk around in circles with people in the dark.

After sitting quietly in the room for a while, the night was already extremely dark.

Zheng Shangming's people came to Jiang's house at night, carrying a letter with them, emphasizing that they would only deliver the letter if they saw Jiang Wang.

Butler Xie Ping personally brought the people to Jiang Wangyuan.

This was an ordinary-looking man. He looked at Jiang Wang carefully for a few times before placing the letter in his arms: "Young master said that this letter must be signed by the lord, and cannot pass through other people's hands."

"Thank you." Jiang Wang took the letter.

This man just bowed, turned around and left without any hesitation.

Xie Ping wanted to send him off, but by accident, he had disappeared.

Zheng Shi has been operating as the captain of Bei Ya for many years. He is not taking it easy. He has all kinds of talents under his command. These are also Zheng Shangming's resources. No different than Mr. Jiang, even the housekeeper was hired with the help of Chong Xuan Sheng.

If you hire people on the street, you may not know what the quality of your home is, and it is not impossible that it is someone else's spy.

Basically, only those whose family can support their family and have children can be called a wealthy family. Having been a servant for several generations, he is innocent and reliable.

People like Lord Jiang are still in the nouveau riche stage.

Jiang Wang opened the letter and said: "It's getting late, let's go down and rest... By the way, winter is here. Let's allocate some money and buy some winter clothes for everyone. We must be willing to spend money and buy ones with sufficient materials. ”

It was difficult for him to think of it in such detail. Dugu Xiao's letter reported her work in Qingyang Town in detail, including such an expense, so he asked Xie Ping to handle it.

"Okay!" Xie Ping went down enthusiastically.

My husband is poor, but he still treats people very well!

Jiang Wangzhanxin looked at it and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Zheng Shangming mentioned the incident of the constable in the morgue in his letter, saying that he was sent by the Yangxin Palace to monitor the case. Besides, Feng Gu's body had not been tampered with, and that person just checked it by the way...

Jiang Wang really didn't expect that there was also the matter of Jiang Wuxie.

But if you think about it carefully, isn't the dispute among the upper class of the whole Qi State just a few groups of people?

How could Yangxin Palace not pay attention to the assassination of Concubine Lei that year?

Jiang Wuxie has always given Jiang Wang the impression of being frivolous and not solemn.

Many people in the court and the public have criticized him, saying that he is "extravagant and unrestrained" and "frivolous and unworthy of being a king."

But Jiang Wang has never underestimated him, and after getting to know Jiang Wuqi more and more, he has paid more attention to Jiang Wuxie.

The reason is simple-

If Jiang Wuxie is a mediocre person, why would he compete with Jiang Wuqi?

The emperor of Qi has many children, and there is no shortage of mediocre people!

A Yangxin Palace stands there, and Jiang Wuxie's weight is there.

He is on the same level as the Crown Prince, the Lord of Huaying Palace, and the Lord of Changsheng Palace.

If you only regard Jiang Wuxie as an ordinary dissolute prince, then you are treating these people as fools.

Then again, Jiang Wuxie's entry is certainly logical, but it also undoubtedly adds a bit of weight to this case.

"Reading the letter by lamplight, Lord Jiang is really quick and studious!" Zhong Xuansheng's voice rang outside the door.

Jiang Wang had already noticed his footsteps, so he just said casually: "Zheng Shangming's letter. Why are you here at this time..."

Zhong Xuansheng walked into the room and looked at Jiang Wang with a complicated expression. "There is news about Gongsun Yu."

"Where is he?" Jiang Wang put the letter away and said directly: "Arrange for me to see him."

"The carriage is ready." Chong Xuansheng said: "I asked someone to buy a few boxes of supplements a few days ago, and I will arrive in Linzi after dawn. I will go to see my grandfather at that time, and you will hide in the box. When you arrive at the Marquis' Mansion, you will leave in disguise with the people who go out of the city to buy. There shouldn't be too many people who dare to monitor the Marquis' Mansion of Bowang. The shadow guard will take you directly to the target place."

"Is it not possible to go now?" Jiang Wang asked.

Chong Xuansheng said unhappily: "Do you think it's normal for me to go to see my grandfather in the middle of the night? If it were you, would you be suspicious? And it will be dawn in a few hours, Lord Jiang, have you forgotten that you have to go to Changsheng Palace to investigate the case later?"

Jiang Wang turned his head and looked out the window, only to feel that this day passed very quickly.

"Is Gongsun Yu far away now?" he asked.

"It's not far, just Biwu County." Chong Xuansheng said, "But you will definitely not be able to go now, and he... why are you so anxious to see him?"

"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow." Jiang Wang did not answer, only said: "I will study Taoism for a while."

"That..." Although he could see that Jiang Wang did not want to chat at this time, Chong Xuansheng still knocked on his chair: "Have you thought about what I told you during the day?"

"Still thinking." Jiang Wang smiled and asked, "Speaking of Taoism, when can you take off the Chongxuan magic power?"

"Magic power is something that depends on luck after all." Chong Xuansheng grinned: "Then you practice, Fourteen is still waiting for me."

His fat figure just walked out of the room.

I think with his wisdom, it is difficult to pretend to be distracted by Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang was silent for a while, and soon sank into the world of Taoism again.

Compared to the complicated troubles in the world of mortals, the greatness and vastness of the world of practice is more intoxicating.

Until the long night returns to the long one.

Until the morning light falls into the house.

Two in one, see you tomorrow.
