Xue Zhi said slowly: "From the beginning to the end, there was no turmoil in the Tianbu. All of this was just a conspiracy."
"A conspiracy?"
Song Bocheng said in shock: "You mean... Tianbu just chose to stand by and watch?"
Hearing Song Bocheng's question, Xue Zhi actually laughed.
This is the first time Song Bocheng has seen Xue Zhixiao in half a month.
No, it should be said that ever since Song Bocheng met Xue Zhi, he had always been an unsmiling person.
But this smile is more like a scornful smile with a bit of sarcasm.
"It seems you really don't know anything."
Xue Zhi put the yellowed book into his arms and seemed to sigh: "Maybe it's a good thing that I don't know anything."
Song Bocheng's eyes flashed.
Gong Yunhong said, "It's because we don't know anything that we traveled thousands of miles to Xingzhou to ask Chief Xue to help us clear up our doubts."
This was said calmly, but it contained a hint of threat.
Xue Zhi took a deep look at Gong Yunhong and sighed: "That's fine."
He crossed Song Bocheng and said calmly: "Come with me."
When Song Bocheng heard this, he looked at Gong Yunhong.
Gong Yunhong nodded, turned around and followed.
Song Bocheng curled his lips and stepped forward to follow.
Xue Zhi did not take the two of them too far. In the small mountain village, there was a residence that belonged to him, so that he could rest in the village after leaving the academy.
He led the two of them to his residence, which was a clean and tidy small courtyard.
It can be seen that people in the mountain village respect Xue Zhi very much. A small courtyard like this is considered a 'luxury house' in the village, but it is still cleared out for Xue Zhi to live in.
After entering the courtyard, Xue Zhi said: "Sit anywhere you want."
After saying this, he hesitated a little, and finally said: "Wait for me for a moment."
He entered the house and seemed to be rummaging for something.
Gong Yunhong and Song Bocheng looked at each other and waited in the yard.
After a while, Xue Zhi came out holding a wooden box, swept the dust on the box with his sleeves, walked to the stone platform and put it away, and said: "If you want to know the secret of Tianbu, you have to start from here. Speaking of."
"Is this... 'that thing'?"
When Song Bocheng heard what Xue Zhi said, he immediately remembered the origin of the box and said in disbelief: "You put such an important thing in a small mountain village?"
"What, are you afraid someone will come to rob you?"
Xue Zhi glanced at Song Bocheng and said calmly: "There are not many people in the world who dare to grab things in front of me, Xue Zhi. And those people... may not be interested in this box."
"This is the inheritance of Tianbu!" Song Bocheng frowned.
Xue Zhi ignored him, but tapped the box with a unique technique, silently recited a few words that no one could understand, and finally dripped his own blood on the surface of the box. The originally gray wooden box seemed to be alive. After quickly absorbing the drop of blood, the weak light disappeared briefly, and then there was a 'click' sound, the box popped open, and there was only a jade slip inside.
However, the style of this jade slip is simple and it is obviously an old object. From the current perspective, many of the structures of this jade slip are outdated. But this is also the biggest advantage of old objects. It is precisely because they are outdated that they are more difficult to crack.
Except for specific methods and specific people, if others want to open the jade slip and peek into the secrets inside, it will only cause the jade slip to self-destruct.
Xue Zhi grabbed the jade slip, erased the restrictions inside, threw it to Song Bocheng, and said calmly: "You know what you should see and what you shouldn't see."
Uncle Song took over the jade slip and held it in both hands with an unpredictable expression.
Xue Zhi reminded again: "Even if you can't help but want to see the real secrets, there are some things that you can't understand."
He pointed at himself, "The real inheritance of leadership is in my head."
This was a reminder to Song Bocheng not to overstep his bounds, and it also relieved his doubts and burden.
After all, Song Bocheng is the eclipse envoy and knows the rules of the Heavenly Department.
Although he had previously promised that Xue Zhi would hand over the leader's inheritance, he hesitated when he actually saw the jade slip carrying the secret.
And Xue Zhi's words just made him relax.
yes.
The inheritance of Tianbu is a secret.
The most important part of the secret is naturally hidden in the leader's mind.
No method in the world to carry secrets is more reliable than memory.
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air, Song Bocheng cast a calm look at Gong Yunhong, steadied his palms, and put the jade slip between his eyebrows!
boom!
After all, this is a secret seal inherited from Tianbu. How many secrets does it contain? It rushed into my mind in an instant. Even if Song Bocheng was a master, he couldn't bear it, and his breath began to dissipate rapidly!
Gong Yunhong's expression changed and he immediately wanted to catch Song Bocheng.
boom!
But at this moment, Xue Zhi, who had always been rigid and gentle, moved like thunder and slapped Gong Yunhong in the face.
The true energy exploded, creating a violent air current. Gong Yunhong remained motionless, but Xue Zhi took half a step back, with a look of helplessness on his face: "Master Gong, please be patient. At this time... you can't touch him. .”
Upon hearing this, Gong Yunhong quickly scanned Song Bocheng with his spiritual mind and found that although his aura was dissipating, he was not in danger of life.
It seems that there are too many secrets in the jade slips, which suddenly broke Song Bocheng's will and made him almost lost.
Seeing such a magical scene, Gong Yunhong was quite surprised and asked with interest: "Does Tianbu actually have so many secrets?"
She knew that with the strength of the Grandmaster's spiritual thoughts, the amount of information needed to defeat it instantly would be extremely terrifying.
She was really curious that a small jade slip could actually have such abilities.
"The Tianbu has been established for more than a thousand years. There are many ancient secrets in this jade slip, as well as many current secrets."
Xue Zhiping explained: "The Tianbu set up three leaders to divide this huge secret and take charge of it, because one person simply cannot bear such a huge amount of information. Otherwise, with the special functions of the Tianbu For me, one leader... is enough."
When he said the last sentence, Xue Zhi's voice was a little hoarse, as if he remembered something, he shook his head, and did not explain to Gong Yunhong.
Gong Yunhong didn't care either.
Anyway, as long as Song Bocheng reads the secrets in the jade slips, she will naturally know what Xue Zhi is 'afraid of'.
That's right, Xue Zhi now seems to be afraid in Gong Yunhong's eyes.
What on earth could happen that could make a leader of the Heavenly Tribe so fearful
The answer will be revealed soon.
I don't know how long it took, but when Song Bocheng's breath gradually calmed down, Xue Zhi said, "He's about to wake up."
As soon as these words came out, Song Bocheng opened his eyes, and an extremely incredible light flashed across his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "This is impossible!"
"What do you see?"
Gong Yunhong didn't expect that Song Bocheng would actually say such a sentence after reading the secrets in the jade slip.
Although Song Bocheng sometimes appears to be impulsive, most of the time he appears to be very calm.
Now he has obviously lost his cool.
After being reminded by Gong Yunhong, Song Bocheng was slightly startled, took a deep breath, and said with a gloomy face: "Is your source of information accurate?"
Xue Zhi said calmly: "If you don't believe it, it doesn't matter whether the source is accurate or not."
"It's not a question of whether I believe it or not!"
Song Bocheng said sternly: "You must be clear that this information of yours... is accusing half of the top leaders of Tianbu of treason!"
Gong Yunhong's eyes moved.
She already knew what Song Bocheng saw.
So she turned her eyes to Xue Zhi and said calmly: "Chief Xue, please explain this matter in detail."
In her opinion, instead of asking further questions, it would be better to let Xue Zhi speak for himself.
Xue Zhi thought about it and felt that this was also the case.
So he stretched out his hand to signal the two of them to sit down and said, "This matter cannot be explained in just a few words."
Song Bocheng's face turned pale, and he was about to ask a few more questions, but was caught by Gong Yunhong.
Gong Yunhong shook his head and signaled him not to act impulsively.
Song Bocheng suppressed the doubts and subtle panic in his heart, sat down slowly, and waited for Xue Zhi's explanation.
Perhaps what he wanted wasn't an explanation.
But... real evidence.
