Chapter 100: The Force Behind
Time passed slowly, and everyone was preparing to go to Shengying College, the leader of the seven major colleges in Baishi City, while Mo Bai was walking alone on a remote road in Wenqing Academy.
Mo Bai walked quietly, seeing very few people on the road. His figure slowly shuttled along a small road, looking a little lonely, giving people a sense of wind and frost.
Soon after, a loft appeared in front of us. This loft was far away from the small yard, and there was no beautiful scenery around it, so no one usually came here.
Mo Bai looked up at the top of the attic, where a majestic figure stood with his hands behind his back, giving him the feeling of being upright.
Usually there is no one here, but at this time a person appeared, and this person was Mo Ming who invited him over.
Mo Bai jumped up and landed slowly next to the figure, looking ahead, where he could see the entire Sword Dance Hall.
Countless craftsmen are building a brand new sword dance hall. The original dilapidated buildings have been knocked down and rebuilt. In a month, it has slowly taken shape.
Mo Bai looked at this situation and couldn't help but be secretly frightened. He didn't expect that the Sword Dance Academy could be rebuilt so quickly. You must know that the Sword Dance Academy is not small, so this must be a big expense.
As long as some time passes, the construction of the entire Sword Dance Hall will be basically completed.
"Mo Bai, you're here!" A voice came from the side. Mo Ming looked at the entire Sword Dance Hall, with a sense of vicissitudes of life in his eyes.
"Uncle Mo, are you looking for me because of the person who wanted to do something to me that day?" Mo Bai asked. At this time, Mo Ming came to him. It was either about a competition in the school or the group of people that day.
.
"I have some clues, but..." Mo Ming hesitated, as if there was something going on.
"What's wrong?" Mo Bai looked at Mo Ming with some doubts. Could it be that this matter involves too much, or maybe the other party's power is so huge that even Mo Ming is afraid of it.
"I found some information, and this matter doesn't look simple."
Mo Ming pondered for a moment and continued: "Some time ago, I sent people to investigate the Ge family and Chu Mutang you mentioned, and found that they were missing a few people accordingly."
"How many people are missing? This is a common occurrence in Baishi City. Basically, people die every day. After all, Uncle Mo also knows about the secret fighting between the aristocratic families and sects in Baishi City." Mo Bai said.
The secret fights between those forces will lead to sacrifices and even open fights, but it is difficult for the four military guards to control these behaviors, so they just let it go.
As long as the institutions established by the Four Military Guards cannot cause any accidents, they can do whatever they like.
Mo Ming nodded and said: "But the matter is not that simple. The information I got from Ge Shi is that those masters have not returned from performing their missions, and Chu Mutang's reason is that they died accidentally while performing their missions.
"
"The key lies in the number of people."
After Mo Ming finished speaking, he looked at Mo Bai with his eyes, as if he wanted to convey something.
"How many people?" Mo Bai pondered for a moment and continued: "It's just a few people. Does Uncle Mo mean that they are lying?"
Mo Ming sent people to investigate, but it was definitely impossible to ask directly. He could only inquire from the sidelines, and what he inquired may not necessarily be all facts.
Moreover, there were nearly twenty people who entered the academy that night, including five other strong men from the sixth level of swordsmanship.
"No, there are some things that they don't need to talk about. If they really did it, then judging from the number of people that night, it was definitely not just the two forces of Ge family and Chu Mutang." Mo Ming said.
As soon as he said this, Mo Bai frowned slightly and frowned. Mo Ming's judgment was correct.
The Ge family only became a clan more than ten years ago, and with the addition of Chu Mutang, even if they join forces, it is unlikely that they will be able to gather five strong men from the sixth level of swordsmanship. Even if they could, it would be an all-out effort.
Moreover, the Ge family has recently faced off against the Siyuan family and does not have much energy to deal with him.
So two forces are not possible, but multiple forces are possible.
But this way, he becomes even more dangerous, and he doesn't understand why these forces would attack him.
"Mo Bai, have you really not offended anyone since you entered the academy?" Mo Ming said, if Mo Bai didn't offend anyone, then why were these people so bold to attack him in the academy?
This is an academy established by the four major military guards, and even those big families dare not do this.
Mo Bai recalled everything he had experienced. Although he couldn't remember some clearly, he was sure that he didn't offend anyone, so he could only shake his head.
Mo Ming looked at Mo Bai and shook his head, frowning slightly. This was impossible! He said, "Think about it again."
Mo Bai sighed, thought about it, and finally shook his head. He really didn't offend anyone during this time.
"After much thought, the only ones I can offend are Ge family and Chu Mutang, but these two families should not join forces together, even if they find helpers," Mo Bai said.
Although these are just speculations and there is no conclusive evidence yet, he can already confirm the existence of these two forces. After all, he has been guarding the Mansion of the Andong Army for many years and has not entered Baishi City much, so it is unlikely to offend others.
When Mo Ming heard this, he had no choice but to sigh helplessly. If this was the case, then he could only investigate from the Ge family and Chu Mutang.
The two of them gradually fell into silence, thinking about how to investigate this matter. After all, for Mo Bai, this was related to his life safety.
But while the two were thinking deeply, Mo Bai's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "If Uncle Mo wants to continue the investigation, maybe he should start with Chu Mutang."
As soon as he said this, Mo Ming looked at Mo Bai in surprise. In his opinion, the Ge family was the most dangerous, because the Ge family was good at using various strategies, and this action must have been arranged by them.
So he wanted to pay more attention to the Ge family, and Chu Mutang investigated the Canglong incident without authorization, which had violated the laws of the Four Military Guards, and the people of the Four Military Guards had to deal with them.
But he didn't expect that Mo Bai actually asked him to start with Chu Mutang.
Seeing that Mo Ming was a little confused, Mo Bai explained: "It has been more than ten years since the Canglong incident occurred. Even if the four major military guards issued a decree prohibiting their investigation, I don't know how many people were secretly investigating this matter at that time."
"But from now on, they have gained nothing, so many people have given up. Chu Mutang is still investigating this matter. Don't Uncle Mo find it strange?"
The investigation more than ten years ago did not produce any results, but Chu Mutang's current investigation into this matter has made people a little suspicious.
Mo Ming narrowed his eyes and nodded. He had not thought of this, but after Mo Bai said this, he had some doubts about what Chu Mutang was up to.
"There is indeed something wrong. I will investigate this matter. You should be more careful during this time."
"I've said all that needs to be said. If there's nothing else, go back first! You're leaving tomorrow, so you should prepare yourself."
Mo Ming reached out and patted Mo Bai's shoulder gently, then turned and left, disappearing next to Mo Bai.
Mo Bai nodded and looked at the direction where Mo Ming disappeared, his face a little solemn. He originally thought that if it was just Ge family and Chu Mutang, it would be okay. After all, the Si Yuan family would support him.
But according to Mo Ming's investigation, there are many forces behind them, so this matter will not be simple.
Mo Bai turned his head and looked at the Sword Dance Academy. Although this matter was very difficult, the current matter was to win the school competition and save Donggui Valley.
As for those forces, Mo Ming is blocking him for the time being, so he can feel relieved. However, if he wants to find a way to improve his cultivation quickly, Mo Ming can protect him for a while, but not for the rest of his life.
There are some things that he should face, and then he must find a way to improve his cultivation.
Mo Bai jumped up and quickly disappeared into the attic. Everything returned to silence, as if no one had been here.
After returning to the room, he packed up all kinds of things and then waited for tomorrow. But for Mo Bai, he didn't need to bring anything, he just needed to bring some clothes.
After giving some animal skins to Su Fei, the Qiankun bag was quite empty. After loading the clothes, Mo Bai sat down and continued reading.
It was like this until the next morning, when Mo Bai woke up from his sleep and found that he had fallen asleep unknowingly while reading.
Mo Bai checked the time, closed the book and put it into the Qiankun bag, and then left the room. He seemed a little late, but he still had time.
When he came to the gate of the college, there were already many people standing here. Mo Bai looked at the number of people and it seemed that everyone was here and he was the only one left.
"Come here, boss, you're the only one left!" Shang Yu waved to Mo Bai and shouted.
Mo Bai came to Shang Yu's side, and everyone's eyes were focused on Mo Bai. They originally thought that Mo Bai would be the first one to arrive, but they didn't expect that he would be the last one.
Nuo Xi slowly fell from Mo Bai's side. She was not late, but was waiting for Mo Bai. Her duty was to protect Mo Bai.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go!" came an old and strong voice.
Mo Bai looked at the direction where the sound came from, and saw an old man there. Next to the old man stood four elders. It was conceivable that this man should be the dean of Luoying Academy.
Everyone got on the bus one after another. Mo Bai took a look around and saw that there was no one else but the students of the Sword Dance Academy, the dean, the elder, the guards and some instructors.
Looking at these people, Mo Bai thought of Mo Ming. He actually didn't attend such an important occasion, but Mo Bai understood a little, because he had also been depressed before.
