"There are many people who can bring Thunder God Bomb into the White Deer Academy in Songjiang Prefecture, but there are only a few who can bring so many in quietly."

Su Mu said in a deep voice.

To blast with seventy-two thunderbolts and bury them in important places of Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture away from other people's sight is not something that an ordinary craftsman can do.

Even the average foreman can't do it.

The only ones who could do this, apart from Lu Mingyang and the master builder Zhang Tongxiang, were the few families that cooperated in the construction.

The Wu family has the best chance.

Wu Yiqi has also been at the construction site.

However, it is unlikely that the Wu family will take action. Although they have some grudges against him, burying thunder gods in the Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture is not just a simple revenge on him.

To do so is to be hostile to the entire Daxuan.

Once exposed, the entire Wu family will suffer a devastating disaster.

For the sake of Wu Yifan, the Wu family would not do such a cruel thing.

If it wasn’t the Wu family, Lu Mingyang?

It's even more impossible for him.

The Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture is the result of the hard work of everyone in the Great Xuan Mission, and it is also the result of the hard work of Lu Mingyang.

There was no way Lu Mingyang could bear to see the Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture destroyed.

Zhang Tongxiang, the chief designer of Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture?

He did have the opportunity to do so.

But why did he do that?

Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture was also his work. As a technician, Su Mu felt that he would not want to see his work being destroyed.

Moreover, Zhang Tongxiang's identity and background are very clean, so it is unlikely that he is a member of the Pure Land Sect.

At that time, someone paid a huge sum of money to hire Jinfenglou to assassinate him.

If it weren't for Su Mu, the grass on Zhang Tongxiang's grave would have been three feet high by now.

If Zhang Tongxiang is a member of the Pure Land Sect, doesn't that mean that the intelligence systems of the Taiping Division and the Supervisory Division are just decorations?

Apart from them, the rest are the local families in Songjiang Prefecture.

They also contributed money and effort to the Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture. Although it may not be voluntary, they are indeed able to enter and leave the construction site.

"After the purge, are there still people from the Pure Land Sect among these families in Songjiang Prefecture?"

Su Mu frowned.

After he came to Songjiang Prefecture, he cleaned up these families in Songjiang Prefecture more than once.

Theoretically, these families should no longer have any connection with Pure Land Buddhism.

But Su Mu was not 100% sure.

After all, even the intelligence systems of the Taiping Division and the Supervisory Division cannot be omniscient.

Moreover, even if you were not a follower of Pure Land Buddhism before, you may become one in the future.

Unless all these families are taken down, it will be difficult to determine who is behind the incident.

The situation in Songjiang Prefecture is complicated now, but it is not convenient to start such a big war.

"No matter who is behind this, they buried the Thunder Gods in the Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture, and they must be planning to detonate them at some point and cause chaos."

Dongfang Liuyun said, “We have already dug out Lei Gonghong, but we don’t know who is behind it.

Su Zhenfu, what do you think will happen if they find that the thunder bomb can't explode when they take action? "

Su Mu glanced at him. Dongfang Liuyun's face was too deceptive. He looked like an honest disabled man, but his mind was very sinister.

Think about it, if the mastermind behind this has already jumped out, then victory is a sure thing.

Then the thunder bomb did not explode. Su Mu found that scene interesting just thinking about it.

In this case, it would be even more impossible to conduct a high-profile investigation into the Leigonghong incident.

"Dongfang Liuyun, since you are good at fortune-telling, can you calculate where the remnants of the Xuanming Sect are hiding?"

Su Mu asked.

"Su Zhenfu, we in the Tianxia Sect really don't tell fortunes, we just capture the secrets of heaven.

Things like capturing the secrets of heaven depend on chance and are not something I can do just by thinking about it.

So I can’t figure out where the remnants of the Xuanming Sect are hiding now.”

Dongfang Liuyun smiled bitterly.

What is fortune-telling? That is a misunderstanding of their sect by people all over the world.

When they travel around the world, they occasionally tell fortunes to make a living, but that is just a means of making a living.

They are not really fortune tellers and cannot predict everything.

"If you can't find the remnants of the Xuanming Sect, then you can help me keep an eye on the families in Songjiang Prefecture and see who among them is the one who planted the thunder god bomb in the Bailu Academy in Songjiang Prefecture."

Su Mu pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "I consider you an informant of the Taiping Division. If you do well, the Taiping Division will reward you."

Dongfang Liuyun looked at Su Mu with his pupil-less eyes, "If I want to join the Taiping Division, Su Zhenfu, do you think it's possible?"

"You want to join the Taiping Division?"

Su Mu showed surprise on his face.

In the past, the Taiping Division did not recruit disciples from sects, but this is not necessarily an absolute no-no.

"Yes."

Dongfang Liuyun said solemnly.

He came down the mountain this time because the sect caught the secret and saw that the world was about to fall into chaos.

By then, I don’t know how many people will be made marquises and how many will be kings.

He went down the mountain to look for opportunities, either to assist a wise leader or to make achievements on his own and carry forward the Tianxia Sect.

But now, he suddenly changed his mind.

He felt that Daxuan's fate might not be over yet, and joining the Taiping Division might be an option.

"I can't decide that."

Su Mu said, "I can ask for you."

"Thank you very much, Su Zhenfu. I came down the mountain this time because I wanted to serve the country.

Even if I can't join the Taiping Division, I will join the Supervisory Division, but I personally prefer to join the Taiping Division, unless the Taiping Division doesn't accept me."

Dongfang Liuyun said.

"Then you have to think carefully. If you join the Taiping Division, you may have to go to the border to fight against the demon court in the future."

Su Mu said.

"I said that our Tianxia Sect and Taiping Division have the same goal, and we both want peace in the world."

Dongfang Liuyun said seriously.

Su Mu nodded. Seeing that it was already bright, he could hear voices not far away.

In order to avoid being discovered by Lei Gonghong, Dongfang Liuyun whispered, "How do we take these away?"

Seventy-two thunderbolts are also a huge pile.

"You go first, I'll find a way to solve these."

Su Mu waved his hand.

Only after seeing Dongfang Liuyun disappear did Su Mu wave his hand and collect those thunder gods into the space ring.

A sneer appeared on his lips. He thought that he could give these back to the Pure Land Sect later.

…………Outside Songjiang Prefecture, deep in the mountains and forests.

A place filled with filthy miasma.

Dozens of dark shadows stood quietly in the filthy miasma.

The filthy miasma like black fog enveloped the black shadows, making it impossible to see their appearance.

Suddenly, a figure emerged from the woods.

"Pure Land Sect, the envoy of Qinglian, requests to see Elder He of Xuanming Sect."

The man stopped when he was still several feet away from the black miasma, looked at that direction with fear, and shouted.

Amidst the rustling sounds, a figure shrouded in a black robe walked out of the black fog.

He looked at the Pure Land Sect's messenger with a sinister and terrifying look in his eyes.

The Pure Land envoy only felt his scalp tingling.

"Elder He, the Green Lotus Envoy said that Su Mu has been in the city, so it is not convenient to take action now."

The Pure Land Sect envoy said with a stiff upper lip, "We, the Green Lotus Envoy, are planning the right time to wait for the monsters from the Monster Court to arrive at Songjiang Prefecture. Then, it won't be too late for us to take action.

At that time, we will first cause unrest in the city, and then Elder He will use his corpse demons to attack the city, and naturally Songjiang Prefecture will be reduced to ashes."

"It is not your turn to tell He how to do things."

Elder He said coldly, "I just need to know Su Mu's whereabouts. If you can't find out, I will find someone else to cooperate with."

The messenger of the Pure Land Sect was secretly complaining in his heart, who else can you find for cooperation?
You look like a devil, neither human nor ghost. If you dare to enter the city, you will be discovered by the Taiping Division immediately.

Who else can help you except us in the Pure Land Sect?

A stray dog, what's so great about it!
"Elder He, I just said that Su Mu has been in the city all the time."

The Pure Land Sect's messenger said, "If you want to kill him, you have to go into the city, but if you go into the city now, you won't be able to see him at all, and you will be targeted by the Taiping Division.

We are also thinking about you. As long as you hear a loud noise coming from Songjiang City, that will be the best time for you to enter the city."

Elder He was silent for a moment.

Then he said slowly in a hoarse and low voice, "Okay, I'll trust you this time. If you dare to play tricks on me, I will refine you all into corpses."

As he spoke, Elder He slowly sank into the black mist.

A low roar was heard from the black fog.

The Pure Land Sect's messenger trembled all over, and not daring to stay any longer, he turned around and left.

If he stayed any longer, he was worried that he would be invaded by the filthy miasma and turned into a monster that was neither human nor ghost.

…………

The Taiping Division of Songjiang Prefecture suddenly became busy.

Announce to the public that they are ready to welcome the arrival of the Demon Court team.

In fact, they started searching outward with Songjiang Prefecture as the center.

Even the Taiping Colonel and the Taiping Commandant of the Taiping Division didn't know what they were looking for.

However, Su Mu's order asked them to search all places within a radius of 50 miles of Songjiang Prefecture.

Judging from Su Mu's expression, it seemed that he was sure that there were still monsters around Songjiang Prefecture.

Everyone was actually a little puzzled. After all, no monsters had appeared around Songjiang Prefecture for many years.

Nowadays, Songjiang Prefecture is home to many masters from various factions, including many geniuses of the time. As a result, even the criminals on the wanted list dare not approach Songjiang Prefecture.

If you go out at this time, there will basically be no gain.

However, Su Mu's authority in the Taiping Division of Songjiang Prefecture is growing, and no one will refute his words.

So everyone in the Taiping Division of Songjiang Prefecture became busy.

Even Luo An Ning went out of the city for inspection. She was also a Taiping lieutenant.

Su Mu didn't stop her either.

He didn't like Luo An Ning becoming a canary. What he liked was the spirit of Luo An Ning who worked hard towards his goals.

Miss Luo has been practicing the Taiping Division's philosophy of bringing peace to the world.

This is where she shines the brightest.

Su Mu would not deprive him of this.

As for danger, how can we avoid it when we live in this world?
If we don't find those zombies, perhaps one day, the disaster that Dongfang Liuyun described as destroying the city might really happen.

The people of the Pure Land Sect are hiding in the city and are hard to find now.

However, the characteristics of the Xuanming Sect's corpse monsters are too obvious to be hidden in the city. They must be hiding in the mountains and forests not far from Songjiang Prefecture.

As long as those corpse monsters are found and killed, one of the three forces in the disaster that Dongfang Liuyun saw will be gone.

Although it may not necessarily solve the crisis facing Songjiang Prefecture, it can at least weaken it.

Facing three forces at the same time is completely different from facing two forces.

For several days, the Taiping Division's inspections yielded no results.

Su Mu looked at the map in front of him.

This is a map of various places in Songjiang Prefecture, including the layout of the entire city and the terrain within dozens of miles outside the city.

There are several circles drawn on the map, which are the locations that have been checked.

There are still large areas that have not been checked.

The Taiping Division of Songjiang Prefecture has limited staff, and with such a detailed investigation, they can only inspect an area of ​​a few miles in radius every day.

But outside Songjiang Prefecture, there are large areas of mountains, forests and water systems, and those places may be where corpse goblins are hiding.

It would definitely take more than a year or two to search all these places.

"Where the corpse goblins hide must be a place with dense demonic energy."

Su Mu secretly said in his heart, "Zhu Jiuyuan does have a technique of observing qi, but ordinary people can't learn it, not even Lu Mingyang can learn it.

Mr. Zhu's health has been getting worse since he came back from the wilderness. It is impossible for him to leave the city to help me find the corpse goblin now.

But even if he could leave the city, it would be useless. Daxuan is different from the wilderness. The demonic energy is hidden in the mountains and forests. Unless you get close, you can't see it at all."

The demonic aura in the mountains and forests is like a fog. Unless you encounter it, it is difficult to observe its existence from a distance.

"I wonder if that fake Taoist priest Dongfang Liuyun has any solution."

Su Mu pondered and said, defining mountains and rivers and finding dragon points, shouldn't these be the skills that fake Taoist priests use to make a living?
Su Mu put down the map and picked up a letter.

This was the reply he had just received.

The Taiping Division Headquarters agreed to allow Dongfang Liuyun to join the Division, but according to the rules, he had to start as a Taiping Commandant and be promoted based on his merits.

"It seems that the situation may be more serious than what I saw. Even the Taiping Division is recruiting disciples from the sect to join."

Su Mu said to himself.

First they negotiated with the Demon Court, and now they made an exception to allow the sect disciples to join the Taiping Division. Su Mu felt a sense of oppression as if a storm was about to come.

His current status is too low, so he cannot see many things, but he can sense from clues that Daxuan is probably facing a lot of pressure.

"We must improve our strength as soon as possible. We must have enough power to protect ourselves before the great changes come."

Su Mu said to himself.

The most urgent task is to resolve the disaster of the destruction of Songjiang Prefecture.

Let Dongfang Liuyun join the Taiping Division first and find a way to find those corpse monsters.

"Someone, go to Bailu Academy and invite Dongfang Liuyun to come to me."

Su Mu thought for a moment and raised his voice.
