Asking About Longevity Chapter 458

Chapter 458 Riots

 After that, Mo Hua spent a few days "digesting" Elder Iron Corpse and purifying his evil thoughts, and his spiritual consciousness increased a lot.

“He is worthy of being an Iron Corpse elder, and his spiritual thoughts are comparable to those of building a foundation...”

Mo Hua was overjoyed.

The consciousness enhances, coupled with the war of divine thoughts, the spiritual power condenses the magic and formation, and the spiritual control of ink paintings is more subtle, and the understanding of the Lingshu array is a deeper layer.

 But that's where it ends.

 After that, no matter how much I practice or think about ink painting, I can't comprehend anything.

 The understanding of the Lingshu Formation has reached a bottleneck.

Mo Hua thought about it and felt that this should not be his problem.

After all, learning the Lingshu Formation, whether it is the consumption of spiritual consciousness or the understanding of the laws, is not at the end of the road and it is difficult to make progress.

 If we encounter a bottleneck now, it should be a problem with the formation itself.

The Lingshu Formation in his hand is incomplete.

 With incomplete formations, it is impossible to fully understand the fundamental principles of spiritual power.

“It seems that we have to find a way to find the complete spiritual hub array...”

Mo Hua said silently in his heart.

 In the following time, we must first deal with the Zhang family's “zombie” picture.

 Eat the zombies in the picture one by one from weak to strong.

 Foster war with war, "eat" his disciples and grandchildren, strengthen his spiritual consciousness, and finally deal with the ancestor of the zombies.

 It is Zhang Quan's ancestor.

But according to Elder Iron Corpse, this zombie ancestor still has many methods.

Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

 You have to find a way to find out its details before you can find a way to target it.

Moreover, I am not very familiar with the use of ink painting to manifest spiritual thoughts.

Although they had fought against each other many times before, and the manifestations of spells and formations were still in good shape, Mo Hua was still not satisfied.

 The manifested spiritual power is not real enough;

 The manifested spell is less powerful;

 The manifested formation is still a bit slow...

 At this level, it is easy to deal with small zombies.

 Even against the Iron Corpse Elder, he can barely kill him.

 But facing the zombie ancestor of the Zhang family, Mo Hua felt unsure.

Although to ordinary monks, the Zhang family has evil thoughts, is full of zombies, and has swallowed up countless people, so it is already extremely powerful.

 It can kill walking zombies and iron zombies, which is already good.

But Mo Hua felt that he was Mr. Zhuang's disciple.

Since the master has taught me how to manifest spiritual consciousness, I must learn it very well, otherwise I will definitely lose the master's face and live up to the master's expectations for me.

 So the spiritual consciousness must be cultivated to the extreme.

 For the manifestation of spiritual thoughts, one must also cultivate to the extreme!

  Manifestation spells and formations need to be based on the manifestation of spiritual power.

  Manifesting spiritual power requires an understanding of the essence of spiritual power.

 The deeper the understanding, the truer the manifestation and the stronger the power.

 The understanding of the essence of spiritual power involves the Lingshu Formation.

 So after Mo Hua "eats" the zombies, he has to start preparing to find the complete spiritual hub array.

What's more, this Lingshu Formation is also related to the traitors of Xiaolingyin Sect.

Yan Jiaoxi spent most of his life trying to settle this feud between the sect.

His obsession in this life is to find the Lingshu Formation and kill the traitor who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors.

 Yan Jiaoxi was kind to himself.

returning a Favour many times more.

If the mastermind behind the corpse cultivator in the mine is really the traitor of the Xiaolingyin Sect, Mo Hua doesn't mind letting the damned person die a worthy death.

 The clues to the Lingshu Formation are hidden in Zhang Quan, who is imprisoned in Daotingsi.

These days, Mo Hua's thoughts are all devoted to catching zombies.

 But he has always paid attention to the news from Daotingsi.

When Situ Fang and Situ Jin came to give gifts, Mo Hua followed them and made some inquiring about them.

The gifts given by Situ Fang were formation diagrams and some formation books.

 This is what was said before.

 It is not only Situ Fang's gratitude, but also the Situ family's friendship.

 You can receive salary if you have meritorious service.

 Him, I helped a lot with the matter at the Walking Corpse Village.

　　Not to mention things related to formations.

 The ink painting was accepted with peace of mind.

In addition, there are some pens, inks, papers and inkstones, the Situ family's specialties of spiritual fruits, and various kinds of spiritual meats.

 It's not expensive, but it's very thoughtful.

 The ink paintings were also accepted.

 The spiritual fruit can be made into cakes for the little senior sister to eat.

 The spiritual meat was stewed and given to the master and the younger brother.

In addition, there are some strange fruits. I don't know what they taste, but they look dry and crisp. Mo Hua also plans to fry them and give them to Mr. Puppet to try...

After receiving the gift, serving tea, and exchanging pleasantries, Mo Hua asked:

 “How's it going with Zhang Quan?”

Situ Jin hesitated.

Situ Fang hesitated for a while, shook his head and said:

 “I didn't ask anything…”

 “Have you been tortured?”

“Used it,” Situ Fang sighed. “I broke five or six sticks, but he just didn't open his mouth and didn't say a word.”

Mo Hua asked doubtfully: "Don't he know it hurts?"

Situ Jin frowned and explained:

“It looks like a special technique that can make the skin and flesh feel stiff, numb, and free from pain.”

 “What about other means?” Mo Hua thought for a while and then said:

“I remember, Uncle Zhang told me that Daotingsi's punishments were various, including pinching fingers, cutting meridians, and poisoning eyes..."

"What are these things Zhang Lan told you..." Situ Fang cursed in her heart.

 She wrote down the words about Mo Hua.

 The next time I go to Zhang's house to file a complaint, Zhang Lan will have one more “criminal responsibility”.

 Situ Fang then said helplessly: "I tried it, but it was useless."

"Fine…"

The ink painting is a bit regretful.

"I'll try to find a way to ask. If Zhang Quan said anything, I'll tell you." Situ Fang said.

 “Hmm, thank you, Sister Situ!”

Mo Hua also nodded.

 After Situ Fang and Situ Jin left, Mo Hua pondered:

 “How can we get Zhang Quan to confess?”

 I don't know if the formation can be used for torture...

Before Mo Hua could think of anything, a commotion suddenly broke out in Nanyue City two nights later.

There are many figures on the street, and there are dots of firelight.

There are also noisy shouts of monks and intensive spiritual energy fluctuations.

Mo Hua heard the noise, but at that time he was catching zombies in the sea of ​​​​consciousness and could not be distracted, so he ignored it.

 Situ Fang came the next day.

 She was injured and looked haggard.

Mo Hua asked with concern: "Sister Situ, what happened?"

Situ Fang regretted: "Zhang Quan is dead."

Mo Hua was stunned, "Dead?"

Situ Fang sighed, "Last night, there were monks who robbed the prison. They were wearing black clothes and acting in secret. By the time the Tao Ting Si noticed it, it was already too late..."

 Daotingsi was indeed unprepared.

 But the most important thing is that none of them expected that someone would be so bold as to rob Daotingsi's prison.

 This is disobedience to the Taoist court.

If he is found out, he will be held accountable!

Mo Hua also looked a little solemn and asked:

“They robbed the prison to save Zhang Quan?”

Situ Fang nodded.

Mo Hua was confused: "Since it was to save Zhang Quan, why is Zhang Quan still dead?"

Situ Fang said: "The battle situation was chaotic at that time. I don't know who stabbed Zhang Quan to death with a sword, and then set fire to a small prison, including Zhang Quan's body."

Mo Hua frowned, "Stab Zhang Quan to death with one sword... This person must be Zhu Ji."

"Yes." Situ Fang also frowned, "The prison robbers have Zhu Ji, the Dao Tingsi has Zhu Ji, and there are other sects and families. When they heard about the chaos in Dao Tingsi, there are also Zhu Ji who came to help..."

“In the chaos, we had no idea who killed Zhang Quan and who set the fire.”

"This thing... is a bit strange." Mo Hua thought.

Situ Fang nodded, "I suspect that the prison robbery is fake, but the murder and silence is real."

“What happened to those monks who escaped from prison?” Mo Hua asked.

Situ Fang said helplessly: "They are all dead too."

Mo Hua opened his mouth, a little surprised, "Are they all dead?"

"Um."

 “Is it really...that there was no one left alive?”

"Yes." Situ Fang sighed helplessly, "Even these dead robbers may not be real robbers."

 “What are their identities?”

"Still checking, but we may not be able to find anything."

Mo Hua frowned and muttered: "Surprisingly, they are all dead..."

"Then Daotingsi should be very responsible for this matter." Mo Hua asked again.

 Things like prison robbery should be investigated thoroughly.

Situ Fang thought for a while, but shook his head:

"Hard to say…"

 Sure enough, two days later, the matter was settled again.

Situ Fang found the ink painting, looking a little angry and helpless.

Mo Hua also learned the outcome of the incident from Situ Fang.

The document written by Nanyue City's Qian Zhangsi to report to the imperial court stated:

“In the twenty-fifth year of the Dao calendar, on the first day of April…

Unknown monks in black robbed prisoners, but were suppressed by Daotingsi Lei Lei. The prisoner Zhang Shen died, and all the robbers were killed.

 The Dao Prison was less than half destroyed, and the chief executive was killed and ten injured...2,836 spiritual stones are needed as compensation..."

　　Although he was robbed, the robbers were all dead, and so were the prisoners.

Although Daotingsi paid some costs, he maintained Daoting's face.

 Mostly the merits and demerits are equal to each other.

Even if we pursue the case, there is no way to pursue it because they are all dead...

 At most, I will receive some mild scolding.

Mo Hua was a little shocked.

 This is really bold and careful.

Obviously he did such a crazy thing as robbing a prison, but he was able to explain it to his superiors and subordinates.

 In the end, big things are reduced to small things, small things are reduced to small things...

The ink painting reveals an intriguing look.

 The big fish behind the scenes has emerged from the water.

But it bit the hook, ate the bait, broke the line, and swam away again...
