Chapter 109 Hidden Front Twenty-Two 3

Lan Xichen was pushed and staggered back a few steps. Before he could understand what was happening in the lightning flash, Lan Wangji slapped the statue of Guanyin in the temple on the back. The statue trembled all over and flew towards the coffin.While Nie Mingjue was still examining the corpse in his hands, which had its head tilted, a heavy Guanyin statue came over, knocking him back again.

Wei Wuxian jumped up and stepped on the chest of the Guanyin statue.The coffin lid was cracked, so the only choice was to use the Guanyin statue as a coffin lid to seal the violent Nie Mingjue.Nie Mingjue slapped the statue with one palm after another, trying to get out. Wei Wuxian also shuddered and staggered, almost being knocked off.He shook it a few times and found that he couldn’t draw the talisman at all. He said: “Lan Zhan, come on, come up with me and add some weight. If he takes two more shots, the Guanyin statue will fall apart again…”

Before he finished speaking, Wei Wuxian suddenly felt that his body and vision were tilted.Lan Wangji had already grasped one end of the coffin and lifted it up.

In other words, with just one left hand, he lifted the heavy solid wood coffin, the two dead people inside the coffin, the Guanyin statue on the coffin, and Wei Wuxian on the Guanyin statue, off the ground.

Wei Wuxian was dumbfounded.

Even if he had already known that Lan Wangji had amazing arm strength, this was… too amazing!

Lan Wangji, however, remained calm and waved a silver string with his right hand.Like a flying shuttle, the strings whizzed dozens of times around the coffin and the Guanyin statue, tightly binding the two things together.Then the second one, the third one… After confirming that Nie Mingjue and Jin Guangyao were tightly sealed, he suddenly let go of his left hand.One end of the coffin fell to the ground with a loud noise, and Wei Wuxian also tilted. Lan Wangji stepped forward to catch it, and then placed it firmly on the ground.The two men’s hands, which were both extremely powerful, were extremely gentle when holding Wei Wuxian.

Lan Xichen stared blankly at the coffin wrapped with seven strings, still lost in thought.Nie Huaisang stretched out his hand, waved it in front of He, and said horrifiedly: “…Xi, Brother Xichen, are you okay?”

Lan Xichen said, “Huaisang, just now, did he really want to attack me from behind?”

Nie Huaisang said: “I seem to have seen…”

Listening to “he”, Lan Xichen said: “Think about it carefully.”

Nie Huaisang said: “If you ask me that, I’m not sure…it really just seems like…”

Lan Xichen said: “Don’t act like it! Is it true or not?”

Nie Huaisang said in embarrassment: “…I don’t know, I really don’t know!”

Nie Huaisang would only repeat this sentence when he was pushed into a hurry.Lan Xichen buried his forehead in his hands. He looked like he had a splitting headache and didn’t want to talk anymore.

Suddenly, Wei Wuxian said, “Brother Huaisang.”

Nie Huaisang said, “Ah?”

Wei WuXian asked, “How did Su She stab you just now?”

Nie Huaisang said: “He was carrying Third Brother on his back… and was running away with Sect Leader Jin on his back. I blocked his way, so…”

Wei Wuxian said, “Really? I remember that the position you were standing at that time was not blocking their escape direction.”

Nie Huaisang said, “It’s not like I deliberately bumped into you to get a stab, right?”

Wei Wuxian smiled and said, “I didn’t say that.”

Nie Huaisang asked, “Brother Wei, what do you want to say?”

Wei WuXian said, “I just suddenly connected something.”

Nie Huaisang asked, “What’s the matter?”

Wei Wuxian said, “Jin Guangyao said that someone sent him a letter, threatening him to tell the world everything he did in seven days. Let’s assume that he didn’t lie and was telling the truth. Then this person is simply unnecessary.”

He said: “If you want to expose a person’s crime, why don’t you expose it directly and go out of your way to inform me that I have evidence of your crime?”

Nie Huaisang said: “Third brother…Didn’t Sect Leader Jin say that this person wants him to commit suicide to apologize?”

Wei WuXian said, “Wake up, think about it and know that Jin Guangyao will not choose to commit suicide to apologize. What’s the point of doing this? It seems meaningless. However, would a person who can dig out Jin Guangyao’s old secrets really make a useless move? Such unnecessary actions must have a purpose, to promote something and give birth to something.”

Lan Xichen said in confusion: “Inducing birth? What is it?”

Lan Wangji said in a deep voice: “Jin Guangyao’s murderous intention.”

If it were Mr. Zewu on a normal day, it would be impossible for him to not think of this step, but he probably doesn’t have the time to think about it at this time.

Wei Wuxian said, “That’s right. It was this letter that pushed Jin Guangyao’s murderous intention to an unprecedented height. Didn’t he say that he would wait for his death in seven days? Then he would strike first and kill the main forces of hundreds of families in a mass grave within seven days to see who dies first.”

Lan Xichen said: “You mean, this is what the messenger wants to achieve? Just to urge him to take action?”

Wei Wuxian said, “That’s what I thought.”

Lan Xichen shook his head and said: “…Then what does this messenger want to do? Is he to expose Jin Guangyao, or to kill hundreds of families?”

Wei Wuxian said, “It’s very simple. Look at what happened after the failed siege. When everyone gathered at Lotus Pier, at the height of the excitement, Sisi and Bicao were welcomed – I don’t think the arrival of these two witnesses was a coincidence. Then everything piled up and suddenly exploded.”

After a pause, Wei Wuxian said: “He not only wants to ruin Jin Guangyao’s reputation, he also wants to make Jin Guangyao an enemy. And it will be fatal at once – there is absolutely no room for reversal.”

Nie Huaisang said, “It sounds like this person started planning things very early on.”

Wei Wuxian looked at he and suddenly said, “By the way, isn’t the body of Lord Chifeng kept by Sect Master Nie?”

Nie Huaisang said: “It was originally kept by me. But I just received the news tonight that my eldest brother’s body in Qinghe has disappeared. Otherwise, why would I rush to Qinghe in a hurry and be caught by Su She on the way…”

Wei Wuxian said again, “Sect Master Nie, I heard that you often go to the Gusu Lan Sect and the Lanling Jin Sect, right?”

Nie Huaisang said, “Yes.”

Wei Wuxian said, “Then you really don’t know Mo Xuanyu?”

Nie Huaisang said, “Ah?”

Wei Wuxian said, “I remember the first time I met you after the donation was successful. You looked like you didn’t know me at all, and you even asked Lord Hanguang who I was. Mo Xuanyu had pestered Jin Guangyao back then, and he could even read the manuscripts collected by Jin Guangyao, and you often went to Sect Leader Jin to complain. Even if you and Mo Xuanyu are not familiar with each other, have you really never met him?”

Nie Huaisang scratched his hair and said, “Brother Wei, Jinlin Terrace is so big. I can’t possibly see everyone, and even if I have, I can’t remember them all. And…” He looked a little embarrassed and said, “You know Mo Xuanyu’s identity, it’s a bit… The Lanling Jin clan tries their best to hide it, so it’s not surprising that I haven’t seen it. Brother Xichen may not have seen it either.”

Wei Wuxian said, “Oh, that’s true. Mr. Zewu doesn’t know Mo Xuanyu either.”

Nie Huaisang said: “That’s right! And I don’t understand. Even if I have met Mo Xuanyu, why should I deliberately pretend not to know him? Is it necessary?”

Wei Wuxian smiled and said, “It’s nothing, I just feel weird and asked casually.”

But he said in his heart: “Of course I want to test this ‘Mo Xuanyu’ to see if he is the real Mo Xuanyu.”

Where did Mo Xuanyu, who was considered timid and timid by others, find the courage to commit suicide?

Why was Chifengzun’s left hand thrown out?Could it be that Jin Guangyao accidentally released it due to negligence?

And why did the newly reborn Wei Wuxian bump into the Mojiazhuang where he was offering his body, instead of appearing somewhere else?

Chi Fengzun’s body was buried by the Nie family of Qinghe. Did Nie Huaisang, who had always respected his eldest brother, really not notice that the body had been swapped for so many years?

Wei Wuxian was more inclined to believe in such a situation.

Maybe before Nie Mingjue’s death, Nie Huaisang really didn’t know everything.But after Nie Mingjue’s death, he knew everything.Including Nie Mingjue’s body, including the true face of the third brother he trusted in the past.

He tried to find the body of his elder brother, but after spending several years and a lot of hard work, he only found a left hand.

He is stuck at this step and cannot get guidance on the next step.Moreover, this left hand is extremely ferocious and difficult to subdue. Keeping it around will only cause continuous bloody disasters.So, he thought of a person, a person who was best at dealing with this kind of thing and solving this kind of problem.

Ancestor of Yiling.

But the ancestor of Yiling has been cut into pieces. What should we do?

Then, he thought of another person, Mo Xuanyu who was driven off Jinlin Terrace.

Perhaps in order to get some words out of Mo Xuanyu, Nie Huaisang once chatted with him and learned from the depressed Mo Xuanyu that he had read a fragment of Jin Guangyao’s forbidden art, which recorded an ancient evil art.He then encouraged Mo Xuanyu, who was being bullied by his tribe at that time, to use the forbidden technique of sacrificing his body to retaliate.

Where can I ask for help?

Naturally, he is still the ancestor of Yiling.

Mo Xuanyu, who could no longer endure such a life, finally activated the blood formation, and Nie Huaisang also took the opportunity to throw out the hot potato that was almost out of his grasp: Chifeng Zun’s left hand.

Since then, the plan has been successful, and he no longer has to worry about finding Nie Mingjue’s remaining limbs by himself, leaving all dangerous and troublesome tasks to Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji.He just needs to closely monitor their movements.

The time Jin Ling, Lan SiZhui, Lan Jingyi and other juniors encountered a strange cat-killing incident along the way, it was clear that someone had deliberately created the phenomenon. In addition, the non-existent “Orion” was guiding them in the nearby villages. There was no doubt that the purpose was to introduce this group of children from aristocratic families who were ignorant of the world to Yicheng.Just imagine, if Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji had made a negligent step and failed to protect them intact, if anything had happened to these children of the aristocratic family in Yicheng, the debt would probably be borne by Jin Guangyao today.

In short, the more chips that can be used to convict Jin Guangyao, the better, the more clues that can induce this cautious villain to make mistakes and leave behind, the better, and the more miserable the death that can be made for him in the end, the better.

Lan Wangji used the tip of Bichen’s sword to turn over the black box next to the coffin, glanced at the incantation engraved on it, and said to Wei Wuxian, “Head.”

This box was originally supposed to be used to hold Nie Mingjue’s head.After Jin Guangyao moved his head from Jinlin Terrace, he probably buried it here.

Wei Wuxian nodded to he and said, “Sect Master Nie, do you know what was originally in this coffin?”

Nie Huaisang said: “How do I know this? But, look at Third Brother… ah no, the appearance of Sect Leader Jin should be something very important to him.”
