Volume 5: The Sorrow of the Sunset Chapter 353: Suspicion
When Mu Yi and Ancestor Huan Xia arrived here, Shui Wuwu, the eldest elder of the Shui family, was carefully examining Shui Qingqing's body - there was a fist-sized hole in the latter's abdomen.
Ying Lao¡¯s Nascent Soul should have been here, but of course, there was no trace of the Nascent Soul at this time.
"I checked again and again. It seems that the third brother was directly pierced through the lower abdomen by the murderer, destroying the Nascent Soul and died on the spot." Shui Wuyuan said with tears in his eyes, sorrow and resentment: "The third brother died so miserably! If I let me catch him, The murderer will definitely cut him into pieces!"
"The same is true for Gao Daoyou. Although there are no scars on his body, his Dantian Yuanying has been destroyed and his meridians have been shattered. The murderer's strength is very terrifying!" Liu Zhenren inspected Gao Jinglei's body and said in horror.
Everyone's expressions changed greatly. Shui Wuqing's death looked more like a sneak attack, but that's fine. Gao Jinglei was an infant in the spiritual infant stage, and he also had thunder-attribute supernatural powers. The murderer could actually shatter his Dantian Nascent Soul. This was What a strong strength!
"Why did the murderer leave these two corpses? Is it too late to deal with it, or is there another mystery?" This was the first thought that flashed through Mu Yi's mind. With the murderer's magical power that could kill two Yuanying stage beings, he wanted to destroy two people. A corpse is just a piece of cake, so why didn't you do that?
People came one after another, and not long after, except for the dead Gao Jinglei and Shui Qingwu, the other twelve people were here.
Lu Mo asked the eldest elder of the Shan family: "Fellow Taoist, this Wangyou Valley has always been under the care of the Shan family. Is it possible for outsiders to sneak into the Wangyou Valley?"
The great elder of the Shan family shook his head repeatedly and said: "Impossible! The seal of Wangyou Valley is very powerful. It was arranged by the immortals back then. It is impossible for anyone in this world to sneak in here without being aware of it; and we are teleported into this place. After entering, the teleportation light curtain disappears immediately, so it is impossible for outsiders to break into the Wangyou Valley from outside."
Lu Mo nodded and said in a deep voice: "In other words, either there is an extremely terrifying and powerful enemy in the Valley of Forgetfulness; or the murderer is among us!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent for a while. Lu Mo's analysis hit everyone's mind. It seems that there are only two possibilities, but no matter which one it is, it is very scary!
After being silent for a while, Master Liu coughed lightly and said: "After we separated, I, fellow Taoist Lu, fellow Taoist Bupo and fellow Taoist Wuwu have been together all the time; the bodies of these two people were also discovered by fellow Taoist Bupo and Wuwu Taoist together. In other words, the four of us have no chance to act alone."
Everyone knows what Mr. Liu means. If the murderer is among them, there will probably be some flaws in his actions.
The other two elders of the Liu family understood and echoed that they had always been together and had not acted separately.
The elders of the Shan family and the Shui family also expressed their stance. They all acted in pairs and never left alone.
"Fellow Taoist Huanxia, ??are you and fellow Taoist Mu acting together?" asked Zhenren Liu.
"This" Ancestor Huanxia suddenly hesitated.
"This matter is of great importance. Fellow Taoist Huanxia, ??please speak out!" Master Liu urged with a serious expression.
Patriarch Huanxia sighed softly and finally shook his head. Said: "At first we were working together, but in the middle, Mu Xiaoyou claimed that he had some personal matters to deal with. So we left for a while, about a day before and after."
"What, fellow Taoist Mu, have you ever acted alone?" Master Liu's expression changed slightly.
"Not bad!" Mu Yi could only admit, he said: "But we are very far away from here, several days' journey away. How can I go back and forth in one day? What's more, I don't have the strength!"
Patriarch Huanxia confirmed Mu Yi's statement and said, "This old man can prove that after I received the message, I flew all the way to get here and it took me two full days."
Although he explained for Mu Yi, many people still looked at Mu Yi quietly with suspicious eyes. After all, Mu Yi was an extremely mysterious existence to them.
"Well, it's indeed impossible!" Master Liu nodded and accepted Mu Yi's explanation.
Shan Bumie, a young elder of the Shan family, suddenly said with a change of expression: "Distance is not a problem! Imagine if someone could kill the two Taoist friends Gao, and then use a flying magic weapon to carry their bodies and fly away into the distance. , but he returned to the original place. In this way, when the body was found a few days later, it would naturally be far away from the original location! This is probably why the murderer kept the body! In this way, the location of the body would deliberately mislead us, thinking that This is where they fell! As for the magic weapon to transport the corpse, naturallyThere are ways to take it back or hide it, and there are even other clever ways! "
"That's right, it's hard to rule out Fellow Daoist Immortality! Fellow Daoist Mu, what explanation do you have!" Shui Wuyuan said coldly: "How on earth did the two of them offend Fellow Daoist, and Fellow Daoist actually resorted to such cruelty!"
"I'm not the murderer!" Mu Yi frowned, and at the same time he analyzed the current situation rapidly!
"Fellow Taoist Endless, please don't rush to conclusions!" Lu Mo advised: "Lu believes that Junior Brother Mu is definitely not the murderer! Besides, it is too reckless to conclude that Junior Brother Mu did it based on these clues. In fact, if there are more than one murderer, One person, then everyone among us is suspect!"
"What does Fellow Daoist Lu mean by this?" Shui Wuyuan said coldly: "Could it be that I would try to kill the elders in my own family!"
Lu Mo sneered and said, "Hey, it's hard to say. Once Taoist Fellow Gao dies, the name of the first family among the four great families in Gaoshanliushui is destined to be transferred from the Gao family. This is a great benefit to the other three families. It is inevitable that it will not happen. Some people take risks because of this! And there are many Taoist friends here who testify against each other in pairs. Let¡¯s assume that if two Taoist friends from the Liu family and his wife collude, will they expose each other?¡±
"Of course not!" Lu Mo smiled at the Liu family and his wife, and continued: "Don't get me wrong, fellow Taoists, Lu Mo was just making an analogy, and he definitely didn't mean to doubt you two! In Lu's opinion, this Before there is definite evidence, we should not make random suspicions and cause civil strife. This is probably the murderer¡¯s real intention behind leaving the body!¡±
"Yes, there is no benefit at all from such mutual suspicion!" Ancestor Huanxia also said: "No matter who the murderer is, since he acts secretly, it means that he does not have the strength to openly compete with us. We should not mess up our position because of this. We've fallen into a trap! Besides, the murderer might not be among us!"
Liu Zhenren and others all nodded. The words of Lu Mo and Patriarch Huan Xia were very reasonable. It was indeed far-fetched to conclude that Mu Yi was responsible based on just some minor details.
Mu Yi nodded secretly. The analysis of Lu Mo and Patriarch Huanxia was also what he wanted to say to defend himself, but it was more convincing if they said it.
In addition, Mu Yi still had many doubts - he even suspected that this matter was directed at him?
¡°It would be too coincidental if the murderer wanted to put the blame on himself. How could the murderer predict in advance that Mu Yi would act alone in order to let the little fur ball absorb the poisonous mist? If Mu Yi had been staying with Ancestor Huanxia, ??wouldn't the murderer be able to frame him?
"Besides the cause of death, what else was discovered?" Ancestor Huanxia put aside the topic, and everyone's attention also shifted from Mu Yi.
"There are no other major discoveries." Shui Wuwu said: "However, there is something strange. In the sleeve of the third brother, I found a jade pendant with a dragon pattern. I have never seen the third brother possess this jade pendant before. Maybe it's not The third brother¡¯s thing.¡±
Liu Zhenren was moved in his heart and said: "If it is not the belongings of the ruthless Taoist friend and was hidden in his sleeve before his death, could it be a treasure accidentally left by the murderer? The ruthless Taoist friend hid it in his sleeve just to inform us about the murderer." What is your identity? Brother Wuwu, take out that jade pendant and have a look."
"It's right here!" Shui Wuwu lifted up the sleeves of Shui Qingwu Corpse God, and sure enough, a piece of exquisite dragon-patterned jade pendant was revealed.
The moment he saw this jade pendant, Mu Yi¡¯s expression suddenly changed!
Lu Mo and Zhenren Liu immediately recognized the treasure and looked at Mu Yi.
Lu Mo¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief, while Master Liu¡¯s eyes were filled with a bit of fear!
"Fellow Taoist Mu, if I remember correctly, you also have a similar jade pendant!" Master Liu looked at Mu Yi without blinking and said word by word.
"What!" Shui Wuwu and others suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"Junior Brother Mu, take out your jade pendant and have a look. There may be some differences!" Lu Mo also said with some suspicion.
Mu Yi slowly took out a jade pendant from his arms and finally understood the general truth of the matter!
The jade pendant found from Shui Qingqing's corpse is called Yunlong Pendant. It has an excellent function of concealing the aura. It was a treasure that Mu Yi obtained from Li San, the Danshi of the Corpse Sect. Mu Yi later gave it to his daughter Muman. dance. But while Mumanwu was under house arrest by the Corpse God in the Wuliang Sect, all her treasures were looted, including this Yunlong Pendant!
Mu Yi also had a piece of Yunlong Pendant on his body, which he later refined with his own hands. The refining method was also derived from the Corpse Sect secret book left by Li San.
Now, the Yunlong Pei that originally belonged to Mu Manwu actually appeared on Shui Qingqing's corpse. There is only one possibility, and that is that the Corpse God was involved in this matter!
Mu Yi has both eyesSuddenly golden light flashed, looking at everyone present.
Having activated the yin and yang divine eyes, he can tell at a glance who the corpse god is!
"However, after looking at it three times in a row, everyone was very normal and not a corpse possessed by the corpse god.
"Fellow Taoist Mu, why are you hesitating? Take out the jade pendant quickly!" Shui Qingqing urged without any trouble.
Mu Yi reluctantly let go of his palm, revealing the jade pendant in his palm - sure enough, it was exactly the same as the jade pendant on Shui Qingwu's corpse!
"As expected, it's you! What else do you have to say now!" Shui Wuwu was furious, and he said bitterly: "I want to avenge my third brother who died in vain!"
