Chapter 256: Yu Family's Hidden Man
If Mo Juren wants to decipher the two amnesia jade slips in his hand, he naturally has to rely on Zhuang Renhe in front of him.
However, the two spells of amnesia cannot be wasted. Mo Juren feels that he should take this opportunity to find out more information from Zhuang Renhe.
He recalled that when he was using the body-building technique to fight against Ulmo just now, Zhuang Renhe had recognized his Elephant Armor Technique.
This was the unique skill passed down to him by Yu Zitong, known as the Yu family's unique martial art. The Yu family originated from the Black Wind Valley in Guanzhou. I wonder how Zhuang Renhe, who was far away in the Giant Sword Sect in Jingzhou, knew about this skill.
So Mo Juren suddenly asked Zhuang Renhe,
"How much do you know about the Black Wind Valley Yu family's skills?"
When Zhuang Renhe heard Mo Juren's question, his eyes suddenly shrank, and he subconsciously took a deep breath. After staring blankly for a long time, he quickly shook his head and denied it.
"I don't know, I've never heard of it. Daoist friend, which immortal cultivation family is the Yu family you mentioned?"
Mo Juren knew that this guy was lying as soon as he saw his flickering eyes, so he had an idea and took out a small bell from his storage bag.
This small bell-shaped magical instrument has a small appearance, but has complex patterns and fine workmanship. It was obtained from the soul-guiding bell that Yu Zitong first used to control the puppet corpse Zhang Tie.
Mo Juren placed the Soul-Guiding Bell in front of Zhuang Renhe, and it was obvious that this guy was shocked again.
So he lied to him,
"It seems that you are still hiding something from me. I will give you one more chance to confess. If you don't tell me what you know, I will use this bell to refine you into a corpse puppet!"
Zhuang Renhe's eyes flashed with a trace of struggle when he heard this, but he finally couldn't hold on and said in a disappointed tone,
"Hey, it seems that you already know my true identity, so why bother testing me again? I'm afraid that my amnesia was caused by you, right? Did you search my soul?!"
However, after hearing this, it was Mo Juren's turn to feel confused and bewildered.
What real identity? Could it be that this guy's identity as a disciple of the Giant Sword Sect was also fake or disguised?
So I followed his words and asked,
"It's good to know. There are only a few methods of interrogation anyway. If you don't want to try it again, just tell me what you know again, so as to avoid suffering for no reason!"
This inexplicable amnesia and the panic of finding himself in someone else's hands upon waking up made Zhuang Renhe scare himself and develop an unknown fear. So, out of helplessness, he began to confess.
It turns out that his real name is Yu Zizhuang, and he is also from the Yu family in the Black Wind Valley of Guanzhou, and is of the same generation as Yu Zitong.
They are all Yu family's spies, sent by the family to Jingzhou to find ways to sneak into the Giant Sword Gate in order to help the family gather information.
The Yu family attached great importance to this matter. Apart from Yu Zitong, who brought a magical tool for possessing another's body and was ready to take over another's body and replace a disciple of the Giant Sword Sect at any time, there was also a member of the clan who was sent to live in Jingzhou since he was a child and seemed to have a clean background, ready to infiltrate the Giant Sword Sect as a boy.
Yu Zizhuang was the most successful one. Not only did he become a formal disciple of the Giant Sword Sect, he also learned the Giant Sword Sect's skills and created his own giant sword.
The purpose of Yu Zizhuang and his spies is very simple, which is to help the Yu family find out the whereabouts of a stone tablet that passes on skills of the Giant Sword Sect.
It is said that this stone tablet was snatched from the Yu family by a master of the Giant Sword Sect in the early years. At that time, the cultivation level of the Yu family was generally not high, and they did not take it seriously. Later, when someone in the Yu family had a high cultivation level, they learned from the family tradition that the skills recorded in the stone tablet were crucial to their subsequent cultivation.
So when the Yu family members realized this, they tried every means to snatch it back, but they were unable to reveal the real secret to the Giant Sword Sect.
With the power of their immortal cultivation family, it is impossible for them to confront the powerful Giant Sword Sect head-on, so they can only resort to this last resort and continuously send disciples to Jingzhou to try their luck.
For some reason, after hearing Zhuang Renhe's statement, Mo Juren had a bolder hypothesis in his mind.
So he took out the cracked jade slip again and asked Zhuang Renhe,
"Think about it carefully. Is there anything in common between the stone tablet technique that your Yu family wants and the 'Gathering Yin and Condensing Evil Technique' in the jade slip?"
When Zhuang Renhe heard Mo Juren's suggestion, he suddenly seemed to understand something. He thought about it carefully and soon he was surprised and said,
"Fellow Daoist, you are right. This technique of gathering Yin and condensing evil spirit can not only be used in the Giant Sword Sect's techniques, but also in the Yu Family's techniques."
"It may have the same purpose as the stone tablet that our Yu family has been searching for! Who is Xiang Zhili... who is he..."
Mo Juren was even more shocked than Zhuang Renhe, because he had guessed that the so-called stone tablet that the Yu family tried so hard to find in the Giant Sword Gate was most likely the one that was thrown to the Qixuan Gate because it was damaged.
It was from this that Mo Juren was fortunate enough to learn the powerful body-refining secret technique called "Tiansha Sword Body Art".
And this Tiansha Sword Body Technique, which opens up acupoints and hides evil within them to amplify magical powers, is surprisingly similar to the Ju Yin Ning Sha Technique left by Xiang Zhili!
Could it be that Xiang Zhili had already seen through Zhuang Renhe's identity and knew what he needed?
Just like the "human pill refining technique" that Xiang Zhili prepared for Mo Juren, wasn't it also an ingenious method that he had always dreamed of to take away elixirs from the forbidden area?
Thinking of this, Mo Juren couldn't help but shudder. The figure of the old man Xiang Zhili became even more mysterious...
After learning this secret, Mo Juren then forced Zhuang Renhe to decipher the two jade slips given by Xiang Zhili.
As expected, every time a technique was cracked, the hidden means in the jade slip would cause Zhuang Renhe to fall into a coma, and he would remember nothing after waking up.
After Mo Juren lost his memory for the second time, he simply pretended to be Yu Zitong who had successfully taken over another person's body, and got a lot of information from Zhuang Zihe.
After the two verifications, it can be confirmed that what Zhuang Zihe said is basically true!
What Yu Zitong said back then, that he was wandering around looking for opportunities because he couldn't make a breakthrough in his cultivation, turned out to be all lies!
His real purpose was to find an opportunity to take over the body of a low-level disciple of the Giant Sword Sect and infiltrate the Giant Sword Sect as an undercover agent. Only in this way could he obtain the family's resource supply.
As for the Giant Sword Sect's detection of the body snatcher, their Yu family also has a secret technique that can temporarily deceive the detection, but it requires the Yu family's masters to personally help. However, Yu Zitong at that time had not yet reached this step...
