Chapter 724: Legend of Ancient Sword 40
Fang Lansheng had just accepted that he was not a biological child of the Fang family. Now Baili Tusu asked him to verify the brotherhood with Ling Yue. He was very embarrassed and refused: "Although I am indeed not a biological child of the Fang family, I have lived in the Fang family since I can remember. Whether it is my parents, my two sisters, or even my old friend Shao Gong, we have a good relationship. I don't think it is necessary to verify anything at the moment."
Fang Lansheng directly refused, and even expressed that even if he and Ling Yue were brothers, he would not leave the Fang family. This made Ling Yue very disappointed, but he also understood that even if Fang Lansheng was a brother from the same mother, they had not seen each other for more than ten years, and the other party even forgot about him from the beginning. How could there be any feelings between them?
Fuqiu was of course heartbroken to see Ling Yue showing his emotions so openly, but she had followed Fang Lansheng and Xiangling all the way, and had listened to Xiangling's efforts to persuade Fang Lansheng. She had no position and no right to interfere with Fang Lansheng's choice.
After getting all the fragments of the jade pendant, Baili Tu Su decided to hand the jade pendant to Ouyang Shao Gong. Ouyang Shao Gong did not take it immediately, but said to Jiang Xin Xin: "This jade pendant needs to be restored to a whole piece to be useful. I also have this method, but I am not capable enough. Why not ask Miss Jiang to do it?"
Everyone was still wondering why Ouyang Shaogong suddenly became so polite to Jiang Xinxin, but Jiang Xinxin refused to take the jade pendant. "I have recognized that this jade pendant is the soul-locking stone used by the Longyuan tribe in ancient times to absorb the immortal spirit of the prince Changqin. Of course, if there was only the soul-locking stone, the people of the Longyuan tribe, as mortals, would not be able to easily absorb the immortal spirit of the prince Changqin. They used a formation called the Blood-Smeared Formation to cooperate with it, so they were lucky enough to succeed."
"This Soul Locking Stone was originally supposed to be a treasure that could nourish the soul, but after thousands of years of division, the treasure has deteriorated. Apart from temporarily preserving the soul and absorbing spiritual energy, it has no other use. Even if it is used to make pills and medicines, it is barely enough."
"Of course, if it is used to harm people, then it can really be used."
Everyone could tell that Jiang Xinxin and Ouyang Shaogong were not getting along, but everyone trusted Jiang Xinxin more, so even Fang Lansheng couldn't help but whisper to Ouyang Shaogong: "Shaogong, how did you offend Xinxin?"
Xiang Ling also whispered to Ouyang Shaogong: "Brother Shaogong, please find some time to apologize to Sister Xinxin."
Ouyang Shaogong was furious, but everyone was on Jiang Xinxin's side, and Jiang Xinxin was clearly trying to kill him. However, at this moment, he had not thought of turning against everyone. "I just don't have enough ability. I need a complete jade pendant to gather Xunfang's soul..."
After hearing what Ouyang Shaogong said, Jiang Xinxin accepted the fragment of the jade pendant directly. "But your wife Xunfang is not dead. She changed her name and called herself Jitong. She has been staying by your side. Princess Xunfang can no longer use this jade pendant."
Xunfang still looked like an old grandmother, and she didn't stay with everyone to discuss things at this moment. Baili Tusu looked around and easily found that Ling Yue and Hongyu were on Jiang Xinxin's side. Even if Fuqiu didn't consider Ling Yue's face, she would only stand on Jiang Xinxin's side based on her personal relationship with Jiang Xinxin.
Ouyang Shaogong sat alone on one side, with only Fang Lansheng and Xiang Ling sitting relatively close to him, but at this moment, the two of them had unconsciously distanced themselves from him.
As for Yin Qianshang, who was brought here by Ouyang Shaogong at the beginning, he and Ouyang Shaogong are close friends. At this moment, he is standing behind Ouyang Shaogong, but in fact he has also distanced himself from Ouyang Shaogong.
More importantly, it seems that Ouyang Shaogong has known for a long time that Aunt Tong is Xunfang. Baili Tu Su wants to tell himself that everyone has secrets and it is impossible to be completely honest with other people about everything, but he can't help but start to doubt Ouyang Shaogong.
Feng Qingxue looked at Ouyang Shaogong with a complicated expression. She saw that Ouyang Shaogong's face changed, and even the sharpness that flashed in his eyes just now was seen by her, so she understood better than Baili Tusu that perhaps in many things, Ouyang Shaogong was really not innocent.
Feng Qingxue took a deep breath and turned to ask Yin Qianshang: "Three years ago, a group of people wearing evil ghost masks infiltrated Tianyong City and tried to steal the Fenji Sword. I am sure that you were involved in it, brother. Can you tell me who is behind it?"
No one had thought of this matter before. Ling Yue and Hong Yu looked at Yin Qianshang with serious eyes, waiting for Yin Qianshang's answer.
Yin Qianshang was slightly frightened, and after swallowing, he replied, "I just wanted to make money. Lei Yan spent money to issue the mission, and I just happened to accept the mission, so I went to Tianyong City."
Yin Qianshang still did not give Ouyang Shaogong out, because he had no doubts about Ouyang Shaogong when he saw him in Tianyong City. He only began to doubt him when he led people to sneak into Tianyong City. At least Ouyang Shaogong provided the route.
There was no evidence and it was a serious matter, so he couldn't say anything in public. But he mentioned it to Feng Qingxue after he was prepared so that those who had experienced that incident would be mentally prepared.
Feng Qingxue has not forgotten Zhao Lin's death. Neither have the disciples of Tianyong City and Hongyu. Feng Qingxue is a little afraid to ask further, but Ling Yue has no scruples.
"Where were you almost three months ago? Did you receive a mission to sneak into Tianyong City again?" Ling Yue asked seriously.
Yin Qianshang knew that this was a serious matter after seeing everyone's expressions, so he answered sternly, "I only went to Tianyong City three years ago, and I haven't been there since. If you don't believe me, I can swear to Goddess Nuwa!"
Feng Qingxue's anxious heart finally settled down. She was glad that her brother didn't kill Zhao Lin.
Ling Yue, Hong Yu and Fu Qiu looked at each other. Yin Qianshang was born in Youdu. Even if he had lost his memory, as long as he dared to swear by Nuwa, it meant that he really did not kill Zhao Lin.
Ouyang Shaogong knew that there was no need for him and Xunfang to stay with everyone any longer, so he just left a message to the innkeeper saying that he and Xunfang were leaving first, and then left quietly.
After making sure Ouyang Shaogong was gone, Jiang Xinxin took Baili Tusu's hand and felt his pulse. "I checked Qingxue and Xiangling secretly before, and found that they had a kind of silk-like poisonous insect wrapped around their heart meridians. I don't know if you and Lansheng have been infected."
Baili Tusu wanted to speak up for Ouyang Shaogong, but Ling Yue had already said that Fang Lansheng was also poisoned. He stammered and said weakly: "Maybe there is some misunderstanding..."
Jiang Xinxin chuckled: "There are two kinds of poisonous insects in your body. One is the same as everyone else, a thread-like poisonous insect that coils around your heart meridian. The other tiny insect lives in your brain. When it attacks, it will definitely make you lose your mind and directly control all your actions!"
Yin Qianshang quickly stretched out his hand to ask Jiang Xinxin to help take a look. Jiang Xinxin took a look and said, "Yours is the same as Tu Su's, one in the heart and one in the brain. It seems that you and Tu Su are the ones that Ouyang Shaogong values the most."
Everyone just felt their scalps tingling, and Hongyu said in annoyance: "We shouldn't have let Ouyang Shaogong go."
Everyone knew that it was useless to say anything now. As expected, Feng Qingxue did not gain anything when she used the spirit butterfly to find out Ouyang Shaogong's location.
Jiang Xinxin thought about it and suggested, "Why don't we find a way to restore Yin Qianshang's memory? Maybe we can figure out Ouyang Shaogong's whereabouts."
Regardless of whether the idea was useful or not, Baili Tusu directly took out the Candle Dragon Scale. Jiang Xinxin, however, had a simpler method and directly cast two healing spells of her own creation on Yin Qianshang. Yin Qianshang lived up to everyone's expectations and remembered a lot of things:
"I did see Shao Gong using living people to make pills and test drugs. I couldn't accept it at the time and had a big fight with him. I guess he did something to me later, so I forgot about it..."
"In addition to going to the East China Sea to pay tribute to Xun Fang every year, Shao Gong would also stop at Hengshan on the way. However, he seemed to have mentioned that there was some magical medicine in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum that could be used. I wonder if he would go there again..."
"Also, after he escaped from Lei Yan's hands last time, he said that the elixir he wanted had been made, but the elixirs Lei Yan tested were obviously not successful, so I really don't know anything more specific."
Jiang Xinxin looked at Ling Yue. Ling Yue thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the Mausoleum of the Qin Emperor first, and then go to the coast of the East China Sea."
