Chapter 459 Corpse Mine

Zhang Quan is dead, and there is no evidence.

The iron corpse was robbed, and the clues were cut off.

Now we can only start with the traitor of Xiaolingyin Sect.

Mo Hua thought about it, and ran to ask Yan Jiaoxi:

"Jiaoxi, do you think that traitor is in Nanyue City?"

Jiaoxi Yan's eyes flickered, and he sighed:

"I have been looking for a long time before, but there is no clue. Maybe he is not here anymore..."

Mo Hua shook his head, "Jiaoxi, you lied."

Jiaoxi Yan was stunned for a moment.

Mo Hua looked sure.

Jiaoxi Yan couldn't help asking: "How do you know I lied?"

"I guessed!"

Mo Hua said in a clear voice.

He looked at Yan Jiaoxi, with a pair of eyes that were clearly black and white, deep pupils, and pure eyes, spotless.

Being looked at by Mo Hua with such eyes, Yan Jiaoxi felt that he had no way to hide it.

There was even some guilt in his heart.

Instructor Yan was silent for a long time, struggling in his heart. Finally, he sighed and said:

"That person is indeed in Nanyue City..."

"I didn't tell you before, first, I didn't want to involve you, and second, this is just my guess. I don't have any evidence, so I can't be sure."

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, and he asked quickly:

"Where is in Nanyue City?"

Instructor Yan frowned and said, "I guess it's in the Lu family."

The Lu family!

Mo Hua's eyes moved, and he thought silently in his heart.

The traitor's surname is Shen Mingcai. He changed his name and surname, and it is also very likely that he changed his appearance and lurked in Nanyue City. He is likely to find a force to rely on.

It is impossible to be a casual cultivator.

First, casual cultivators are hard. He betrayed his master and destroyed his ancestors, and he certainly didn't do it to live a hard life.

Second, he is a formation master. He has no relatives and friends among casual cultivators, which makes him more conspicuous and his identity more suspicious.

If he is not a casual cultivator, he must find a force to rely on.

If he wants to rely on, it must be a big force.

It is nice to be under a big tree to enjoy the shade, and there are many people and things to do, so it is convenient for him to stay.

The three major forces in Nanyue City are Daoting Division, Nanyue Sect, and Lu Family.

Daoting Division pays attention to origin, and you cannot enter without a clean identity - at least a clean identity on the surface;

Nanyue Sect is a sect, and Lu Family is a family.

Relatively speaking, as long as you have the ability, you can get into either of these two.

There are many choices to be a teacher, an elder of an outer sect or a branch, a guest official, or a son-in-law, and the status is quite high and the treatment is also good.

Mo Hua had guessed before that if the traitor was hiding, he would hide in Nanyue Sect or Lu Family.

But he was a little unsure.

And Teacher Yan also guessed that the traitor was in the Lu family...

Mo Hua asked: "Why do you think he is in the Lu family?"

Teacher Yan said: "You are right, I lied to you before..."

"I saw the handwriting of the traitor's formation in Nanyue City. At that time, I told you that I didn't find out the origin of this formation, but I lied..."

"I found it out..."

Teacher Yan looked solemn, "This formation came from the Lu family."

"And the formation in that mine is familiar and obscure, with some evil..."

"I guess the formation used in that mine is the Lingshu formation."

"That mine is also owned by the Lu family."

"I also suspected the Lu family, so I rented a house near the mine to find out some information and find clues about the traitor..."

Teacher Yan was a little helpless, "But I never thought that I would run into Zhang Quan, be held hostage by him, and be trapped in the zombie village..."

"You know everything about what happened later..."

Teacher Yan told everything.

Mo Hua nodded slowly, "So, the Lu family is the most suspicious."

Judge Yan also nodded slightly, and then his face was depressed:

"The Lu family is too powerful. They occupy several mines, have many foundation builders, open mines, brothels, gambling houses, and restaurants, and own most of the prosperous Jinhua Street. Their relationships in Nanyue City are complicated..."

"I don't have the ability to investigate the Lu family. Even if I find out, I'm afraid..."

Judge Yan sighed deeply.

Mo Hua knew the difficulties of Judge Yan.

The Lu family is such a powerful force in the local area. Judge Yan, an outsider cultivator, even if he is a formation master, has no way to find out anything.

Even if he finds out, Judge Yan is not good at Taoism, so he can't do anything.

If he reports to the court, saying that someone in the Lu family is bullying his teacher and destroying his ancestors.

It is estimated that Judge Yan will be arrested instead.

Mo Hua comforted Yan Jiaoxi:

"Teacher, in fact, what Mo Guanshi said is right. You should also consider your lifelong event, marry a Taoist partner, and live a happy life.

Yan Jiaoxi paused, feeling helpless.

Mo Hua said again: "Good and evil will be rewarded. Maybe that person will die suddenly one day?"

"During these days, you can live here without worry, drink tea with Mr. Zhuang, chat, and talk about formations..."

"As for other things, let it go, don't take it too seriously."

Although he said so, Yan Jiaoxi's knot in his heart is definitely not so easy to untie.

But after listening to Mo Hua's words, Yan Jiaoxi still felt a little warm in his heart.

For so many years, he has been depressed and his temperament is a little cold.

He rarely feels the care of others.

But then Yan Jiaoxi found something wrong again, and looked at Mo Hua with some suspicion, "Are you...wanting to do something?"

Mo Hua smiled and shook his head:

"Nothing. "

He couldn't tell Teacher Yan what he wanted to do for the time being.

After that, he changed the topic, chatted with Yan Jiaoxi for a few more words, and then ran to Daotingsi to find Situ Fang.

It was inconvenient for Daotingsi to speak, so the two found a remote teahouse.

Mo Hua lowered his voice and asked:

"Sister Situ, has your boss ever received any bribes from the Nanyue Sect?"

Situ Fang was startled, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Then has he ever received bribes from the Lu family?"

Situ Fang nodded again.

Mo Hua was silent, and he asked in a different way:

"Then is there any sect or family in Nanyue City that has not bribed him?"

Situ Fang hesitated and said:

"Maybe there is, but such a force probably no longer exists..."

Mo Hua was a little unbelievable, "Is he so greedy?"

Situ Fang said tactfully: "He is my immediate boss after all. It is not easy for me to discuss his rights and wrongs."

Mo Hua understood.

It means that she is so greedy that she has nothing to say.

Mo Hua frowned, "Is he so greedy and no one cares about him?"

Situ Fang coughed twice and whispered:

"Dao Tingsi has power, and he is greedy when he has power. It's just that he is greedy more or less."

"There are people who are not greedy, but they are rare."

"Power and money breed."

"As long as you have the right, someone will bring the spirit stone to you. Even if you don't have to do it, they will put the spirit stone into your pocket."

"And as long as you have spirit stones, you can naturally use them to exchange for power..."

Mo Hua nodded, suddenly feeling a little strange:

"Sister Situ, the tone of your words is so similar to Uncle Zhang Lan..."

Situ Fang was a little disgusted, "This is what he told me."

Mo Hua was stunned.

Situ Fang sighed: "He was afraid that I was too upright and too simple, so he said these things to me when I was the Dian Si."

Situ Fang didn't believe it at first.

Later, when I became a Tonji, I saw many things and had no choice but to believe them.

Mo Hua pondered for a while and then asked:

"Then Mr. Qian, from which company did you receive the most bribes?"

"That must be the Lu family."

"Is the Lu family the richest?"

"Yeah." Situ Fang nodded and sighed:

"Most of the mines in Nanyue City belong to the Lu family, and most of the mine repairmen in Nanyue City work for the Lu family. How can we not be rich?"

There is probably one sentence missing: Most of the Daotingsi in Nanyue City have been bribed by the Lu family...

Mo Hua cursed in his heart.

Situ Fang glanced at the ink painting, frowned, and suddenly reminded:

"Don't go against the Lu family..."

"A strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local coward. The Lu family has huge power, deep connections, and complicated relationships. Unless the Dao Ting takes action, no matter how many bad things the local forces do, they will still be able to hide everything if they collude with the local Dao Tingsi." "

"Chopping the weeds can't get rid of the roots..."

The Situ family also acted under the rules when they arrived in Nanyue City.

Occasionally there may be conflicts of interest, but there will be no disagreements.

The problems in Nanyue City are deep-rooted.

It's not something that the Situ family can solve if they want to.

What's more, Situ Fang is just a Diansi.

Situ Fang had a close relationship with Mo Hua, and was afraid that he would not know the stakes involved, so he would get involved rashly with passion, and he would not be able to get away when the time came.

Mo Hua nodded and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I know it."

After confirming the relationship between the Lu family and Daotingsi, Mo Hua went to the Lu family's mines again.

On the surface, the Lu family's mine is still noisy and busy as before.

But Mo Hua noticed that the surrounding formations had changed.

The formations are more complete and the guards are tighter.

There are many dust formation formations set up around the mine, and even a development formation is set up at the gate...

These formations seemed to be protecting me...

At the same time, the monks guarding the mine also changed.

The Lu family monk named Lu Ming was transferred away.

There are also two Lu family foundation builders who are in charge of the mine.

They no longer have beautiful maids shaking fans, delicious food and wine, but sit quietly with solemn expressions. Occasionally, they will release their spiritual consciousness and glance around, as if they are wary of something.

"It's very problematic..."

Mo Hua muttered in his heart.

There is a foundation building, a dust manifesting array, and a developing array, so it's not easy to sneak in.

Mo Hua wanted to go in and have a look at night.

But at night, the two foundations were still there.

With a sweep of Mo Hua's consciousness, he could even find that there were many Lu family monks lurking in every corner.

There was no one digging at night, so they kept watch even tighter.

Don't give Mo Hua a chance.

"The problem is huge..."

Mo Hua simply waited outside until midnight.

Waiting until midnight, there was finally some movement in the mine.

Waves of gloomy breath came.

But what is different from before is that these movements are very subtle.

The breath inside is also very weak and difficult to detect.

It seemed like it was deliberately restrained, or like it was completely covered up by formations or something like that.

It was completely different from the dense, eerie, and heart-stopping feeling that Mo Hua had felt before.

Nowadays, the smell of the mine is weak and the movement is small.

Even ordinary monks passing by may not be able to detect anything unusual in the mine.

Mo Hua looked slightly solemn.

He sat down cross-legged, let go of his consciousness, and carefully felt the breath of the mine.

After a while, Mo Hua opened his eyes, feeling reassured.

My guess was correct.

The smell in this mine is zombies!

He didn't know it before.

But he had dealt with Zhang Quan, went to the zombie village, robbed the zombie bell, took the "zombie map", and "ate" several zombies.

Mo Hua is very familiar with it now.

That kind of dead air is the corpse air on the zombies.

That kind of rotten smell is the rotten stench on the zombies.

The evil formation is the Lingshu evil formation painted on the zombies.

The air was so dense and palpitating because there were so many zombies hidden in this mine!

This mine of the Lu family is a corpse mine!
