Chapter: 638
Soon, we arrived at Jiashan.
The disciples of Jiashan probably were not particularly surprised to see me because they heard the news of my return yesterday.
After greeting several familiar-looking disciples in Jiashan, Su Jiu and I went straight to the Palace Master's Palace.
Two disciples stood outside the palace, seemingly guarding the gate.
"Eldest brother! Su Jiu's government envoy!"
The two disciples respectfully said to us.
"Open the door, I want to see the Palace Master." I said calmly.
"This...Senior brother, it's unfortunate that you came here. The palace master just went to Yishan to visit the returning Yishan mansion." The disciple said bitterly.
I pretended to be surprised.
"That's it, Senior Brother, I will go to Yishan for you to inform the Palace Master!" The disciple looked at me and said.
Su Jiu hurriedly raised her hand and said, "No need, the head of the palace can't be disturbed. Senior brother and I will wait here for the head of the palace."
The disciple hesitated for a moment, then said, "That's fine."
After speaking, the two disciples continued to stand outside the palace gate, looking at me with curious eyes.
Su Jiu laughed dryly at this moment, and said, "You two, the road is narrow for you, I don't care, you just let the senior brother stand at this door?"
"Ah!" The two disciples reacted immediately, and they immediately took out a jade pendant to open the door of the palace. Said: "Although the palace master said that he did not allow anyone to enter, but the senior brother is different. Come in and wait."
"That's right."
Su Jiu smiled and walked in first.
I followed in the next step.
After entering, the two disciples also closed the door very wisely.
"I remember that there were no gatekeeper disciples before?" I asked Su Jiu softly.
I have also been to the Palace Master's Palace many times, but I don't seem to have seen the gatekeeper disciples.
A sneer flashed across Su Jiu's face, and she said, "Perhaps this fake palace lord is afraid that something in the palace will be discovered, so he increased the defense, Senior Brother, there must be something strange in this palace!"
I nodded silently. I knew all the weirdness in the palace. It was under the bed in front of me!
The surface is a bed, but in fact it is a coffin, and inside lies the corpse of the true palace master!
"Let's look for it." Su Jiu said, and immediately began to search the palace.
I went directly to the bed where the fake mansion master was lying.
"Su Jiu..."
I spoke quietly.
"What's the matter, Big Brother?"
Su Jiu turned to look at me.
"This bed is weird, it's hollow underneath," I said.
Su Jiu's expression was slightly stunned, and then he quickly walked towards me and said, "Senior Brother! Let's open it up and take a look!"
I nodded, took off the cloth on the bed, and prepared to open the coffin.
Although I have seen it last time, it stands to reason that I can open the coffin with a normal heart, but for some reason, this time my heart can't help beating faster.
After taking a deep breath, I opened the coffin directly!
And soon, I was stunned!
The cold air was blowing, and the temperature inside the coffin was extremely low, the same as before, but the problem was that at this moment, there was nothing in the coffin!
There is nothing!
The corpse of the real palace lord is gone!
My brows were wrinkled, how could the body of the real Palace Master disappear?
"Elder Brother! This is an ice coffin! It must have been the body of the Palace Master in it!" Su Jiu said to me aloud.
I nodded, "Well, I just don't know if the corpse inside was taken somewhere else by the impersonated Palace Master."
The question now is, where did the body of the real Palace Master go!
"not necessarily."
But Su Jiu shook his head.
I was slightly taken aback and said, "What, what is not necessarily?"
"Senior brother, don't you remember what the palace lord left? He is not dead! So it may not be that the impersonated palace lord took his body away, maybe the palace lord escaped by himself!"
Su Jiu said in a positive tone.
I was stunned again.
Although I still don't quite believe that the real Palace Master is dead, Su Jiu's words are not impossible.
"Then you say that the government chief escaped, where will he go? There doesn't seem to be any good hiding place in the Dongsheng Five Mountains, right?"
After a while, I asked Su Jiu suspiciously.
Su Jiu pondered and said: "This person who pretends to be the Palace Master is very powerful, and our entire Dongsheng together may not be his opponent. Even if the Palace Master escapes, he will definitely not show up. A good hiding place, it is possible that the Palace Master left Dongsheng."
"How many other ancient places have you been to?" I said with a frown.
Su Jiu shook her head and said, "Not necessarily, maybe even after leaving Gudi."
My pupils shrank, and I left the ancient land, which means I went to the world! Went to summer!
"Su Jiu, it would be better if the manor is not dead. If I really go to the hot summer, I will find a way to find him." I said.
Su Jiu nodded solemnly, looking at me with hope in her eyes!
When I think of the hot summer, my thoughts begin to drift. It has been quite a while since I fled in embarrassment. Although I can't compete with Shangguan Huayu, who has gilded armor, I think it is time to find a chance to return to the hot summer. Look.
The immortal position that Xue Li said, and the fact that the true palace master is suspected of fleeing to the hot summer, all require me to go...
Furthermore, I thought of those friends in the hot summer, especially the two women from the Shangguan family in Taiyidongtian...
"While the fake Palace Master has not returned, let's see if there are any clues in the palace." Su Jiu said.
Apart from this bed coffin, there is nothing strange about the Palace Lord's palace, I know this very well.
Besides the bed coffin, apart from the corpse of the True Palace Master, there is nothing else.
But seeing Su Jiu's cautious appearance, I still carefully searched for it again.
The final result was as I thought, and we found no other clues.
But when I was about to find the palace, an idea suddenly popped into my mind!
Since the words of the true Palace Master left behind were heard in Old Hong's palace, then maybe there are also words left by the false Palace Master in this Palace Master's palace?
As soon as I thought about it, I had a hunch in my heart, maybe it really is!
I eagerly lay on the ground and pressed my ears to the ground, but I didn't explain it to Su Jiu first.
The rest of the perception gradually disappeared, and only the hearing remained, and it was extremely sensitive. After a few seconds, a familiar voice came from the ground!
"—Protect him!"
Just four words, concise and powerful!
My eyes widened, it really did! There are really words left by the real Palace Master in this Palace Master's palace!
But soon, I was puzzled, what does 'protect him' mean?
Who is he?
Only these four words are left, which makes people a little confused.
"Elder Brother, what's wrong?"
Su Jiu looked at me suspiciously.
I waved at him and said, "Su Jiu, hurry down and listen, there are also words left by the Palace Master here!"
"Oh, really!"
Su Jiu was shocked when she heard the words, so she hurriedly fell down and listened attentively.
But soon, his expression gradually solidified.
"How? Did you hear it? Who is the Palace Master asking us to protect?" I asked Su Jiu out loud.
Su Jiu got up, smiled awkwardly at me twice, and said, "Eldest brother, you... Are you sure you heard the voice?"
"Sure." I nodded, my eyelids moved for a few seconds, and I said incredulously, "Didn't you hear that?"
Su Jiu looked at me strangely and nodded.
"impossible!"
Once again I stuck to the ground and started listening!
"—Protect him!"
The same sentence, the same voice appeared again! Not my hallucination!
"Su Jiu, did you really hear the words 'protect him'?" I asked intently.
"Not really."
Su Jiu shook her head.
It's amazing, am I the only one who can hear it? "Protect him" was the real Palace Master specially said to me?
But I haven't even met the real palace master. He may not even know that Yan Xia has come to an old age and has become the senior brother of Dongsheng Yinfu. How can he say such a sentence to me alone?
"Then... Su Jiu, do you know if there are any important people or items in the Dongshengyin Mansion that need to be protected?"
I asked Su Jiu.
Su Jiu shook his head, he said, "Apart from the Five Paths of the First Holy Qi machine in the hands of the person who pretended to be the Palace Master, I don't have anything too precious in Dongsheng. As for people... I'm afraid it's only you, Senior Brother."
My face is slightly condensed. Although I am important to Dongsheng, I don't need others to protect me. There is no one in Dongsheng who has the strength to protect me. The 'he' in the mouth of the real palace master is definitely not me. There is no doubt about this. .
"Forget it, the fake Palace Master will be back soon, let's leave first."
I silently remembered the words left by the true Palace Master in my heart, and then spoke out.
"it is good."
Su Jiu nodded.
This time is naturally not a good time to meet the fake Palace Master, so I am not going to wait for him to come back.
After Su Jiu and I restored the venue, we walked out of the hall.
"What's the matter, Big Brother?"
The gatekeeper disciple saw us coming out and said curiously.
"I suddenly remembered that there are still things to do. The Palace Master is not back at this point. Come visit him tomorrow." Su Jiu smiled and explained to the disciple who was guarding the gate.
"So that's the case, then I'll wait for Senior Brother and Su Jiu's envoy tomorrow, and walk slowly."
The disciples who guarded the gate did not have any doubts and let us go directly.
I said goodbye to Su Jiu, and I returned to my senior brother's palace.
This palace was burned and destroyed by Su Yi before, but it was repaired by the fake palace master. Although it is no longer protected by a powerful defensive circle, it can live in people.
Now, the magic circle that can protect the middle realm of the Holy Manifestation is also optional for me, and it doesn't matter if it is there or not.
After returning to the bedroom, I was ready to continue practicing the Immortal Art, preparing to condense the first holy qi machine of the third way!
The road to promotion is long, and the only way is to accumulate time.
And just when the night in the Eastern Ancient Land began to sweep, and the inside and outside of the house were shrouded in darkness...
boom--
A sound appeared.
I suddenly came out of the state of cultivation.
I looked up at the door and saw a familiar figure at the door... JrNovels.com
