Chapter 230 People are dead
In the southern part of Xishu Road, among the mountains and dense forests, there is a small town called "Tangjiabao".
The Tangjia Fort is where the Tang Sect is located among the twelve sects, and is divided into two inner and outer forts. The inner fort is where the core disciples of the Tang Sect live, with one post for every five steps and one sentry for every ten steps. It is not something that anyone from the Tang Sect is good at.
Enter, there is only one word "death".
The outer fortress is where the outer disciples of the Tang Sect live and where they operate.
The Tang Sect is famous for its hidden weapons and poisons. Inner sect disciples need to consume a lot of hidden weapons and poisons every day to practice. It can be said that every Tang Sect disciple earns money.
With such consumption, relying solely on the Tang Sect to be self-sufficient would sooner or later result in nothing, so the Tang Sect needs financial resources and manpower to run it.
However, there are not many children surnamed Tang in the Tang Sect. If they go to do business, how many will be left to concentrate on practicing martial arts? In this world, nothing can be lacking without force.
Therefore, several generations ago, the existence of outer sect disciples was born in the Tang Sect.
Recruit disciples with other surnames, teach them martial arts, and let them run business and provide funds for the Tang Sect. If the outer disciples have outstanding achievements or extraordinary talents, they can marry or marry into the Tang Sect, take the Tang surname, and become the Tang Sect's disciples.
own people.
These outer disciples worked for the Tang Sect during their time, operating and living in the outer fort. Over time, Tangjiabao became a quite lively town, with business exchanges on weekdays, and it was quite prosperous.
"Tangjiabao does not only produce poison. Since ancient times, medicine and poison have not been separated into different families. The Tang Sect is not only good at poisoning, but also very proficient in medical skills. The sale of elixirs is also a major source of funds for the Tang Sect.
Of course, if you want to buy poison, as long as you have enough money, the Tang Sect doesn't mind if some of the poison goes out."
On the wooden kite, Xuan Jian was drinking while explaining to Qin Yang: "Let me tell you, Tang Sect's Jasper Pill is one of a kind. No matter how inferior wine is soaked in Jasper Pill, it can become the best in the world."
Fine wine. If you soak it in fine wine, it will be nothing more than the royal jade liquid."
"Unfortunately, the better the wine, the more poisonous it will be when soaked with Jasper Pill. You should be careful in the Tang Sect. You would rather drink bad wine than good wine. Although the Tang Sect is our ally, you will never get out of Tang Sect.
It must be. This Tang Laosi is specifically in charge of the development of poisons, and he definitely has a lot of Jasper Pills in his hands."
"I hope you will keep this in mind," Qin Yang sighed, "After all, I don't drink alcohol at all. If you warn me, you might as well warn yourself."
Ever since he fell in love with Mu Yuan, Xuan Jian's wine gourd hasn't stopped, and he doesn't know how he, a swordsman, turned into an alcoholic.
Generally speaking, swordsmen do not drink alcohol. Alcohol that can make swordsmen feel drunk can also make their hands shake like Parkinson's patients. Alcohol that cannot make them immune to side effects cannot make them immune to side effects.
It produces intoxication.
You don't get drunk when you drink, so what's the difference between that and soda?
With Xuanjian's physical condition, ordinary drinks would have no effect on him. I don't know why he developed such a habit.
"Master Qin, you don't understand. I drank my fill in advance to avoid being plotted by Tang Laosi."
I would choose to drink wine, but for an alcoholic, wine is the true meaning of life. What if I don’t drink enough and get plotted against me?”
"You know full well that the enemy will plot against you over wine, but you fell into the trap, so you might as well die in Tangjiapu."
"Hey hey hey."
The wooden kite kept flying and soon saw the majestic small town.
Yes, it is majestic. Compared with those counties and cities, Tangjiabao is not big, but it definitely deserves the word "majestic".
The majestic and tall city gate is built with extremely strong stone pillars, which is very majestic. The towering city wall is nearly three feet high, winding on the plains and mountains, surrounding Tangjiabao, which is built on the mountain.
Outside the city wall, there is a moat one and a half feet wide. Some strange shadows can be vaguely seen in the river, which are the poisons kept by the Tang Sect in the moat.
Ten years ago, on the eve of Junzi's ambush, Tang Qingfeng's body was found in this moat.
But these are not the important points now. The important point is the white cloth hanging on the city wall. Looking down from a high altitude, the entire Tangjia Fort is completely white.
"The whole city is in peace, which brother of the Tang family died." Xuan Jian murmured.
This so-called brother is not the brother of Xuanjian, but the brother of Mr. Tang Da, the head of the Tang Sect. Ten years ago, when Tang Qingfeng died, this was the scene. Ten years later, this scene reappeared, indicating that there was another person in the Tang Sect.
A top figure died.
Who is it?
Is it difficult to say...
Qin Yang and Xuan Jian looked at each other and saw a bad premonition in each other's eyes.
The wooden kite flew straight over the Tangjiabao city gate, ignoring the shouts on the city wall, and headed towards the inner fort.
"There are enemies!"
Someone on the city wall shouted loudly and fired arrows to notify the people in the inner castle that something was wrong.
The wooden kite flew quickly, and in a short time it had flown over the outer fort and entered the inner fort.
As soon as they entered the inner fort, the sharp sound of piercing the air kept ringing, and countless crossbow arrows came like a rain of locusts, covering the sky and the ground. The darkness even covered the daylight in the sky.
"The wind blows."
The white sword danced with a storm of sword energy, sweeping away all the crossbow arrows in the front area. Xuan Jian stood in front of the wooden kite and shouted loudly: "The Mohist family has calculated that Qin Yang came uninvited. I hope Mr. Tang Da will forgive me."
Then one."
"You know how to blame others." Qin Yang rolled his eyes from behind.
"Tangjiabao does not welcome outsiders, especially people from the Mohist family. Use a cloud hook to hook them down."
Immediately, an unceremonious shout came from below.
Immediately afterwards, a dozen hook locks were shot into the sky from the large aircraft, and the steel cables surrounded the four directions. The hook locks shot into the air also fell down and hooked towards the wooden kite with its wings spread.
"It seems that Tang Clan does not welcome me."
"I already have some guesses about the person who died."
The two of them said separately.
The reason why the Tang Sect attacked so rudely was naturally not because Qin and Yang drove wooden kites straight into the inner fort, but because the person who died died because of the Mo family.
So who will die?
Why did he die?
Qin Yang and Xuan Jian both had their answers at this moment.
In all likelihood, the person who died was the target of their investigation this time - Tang Jue.
"It's troublesome," Xuan Jian sighed, "if Tang Jue committed suicide and left a suicide note before his death, claiming to prove his innocence, then our Mo family would have become the murderers who forced Tang Jue to death."
"But I don't believe that any force would sacrifice a powerful god-refiner to frame the Mo family, nor do I believe that Tang Jue would be willing to die to cause trouble for our Mo family."
