The Xie family is an ancient aristocratic family with a great business, but only less than 800 people can live on Jiuwen Mountain.

And among these eight hundred people, those who met the conditions were found, and only a few people were left.

Unfortunately, among these people, Xie Yunxiao did not find the person injured by Xie Ming.

"What should I do? Master, in three days, one day has passed!" Xiao An was very anxious. He thought he could successfully find the murderer. During the defense meeting, Xie Yunxiao was so confident.

Xie Yunxiao didn't say anything. Logically speaking, it would be easy to find that person using this method, but now in this situation, the murderer has disappeared.

"Could it be someone from outside?" Xie Yunxiao couldn't help but shook his head when he came to this conclusion.

The Xie family is an ancient family, and Jiuwen Mountain is its foundation. Only true geniuses can become disciples of the Xie family. Ordinary people can only go up the mountain in Tianqi City. How can outsiders come up the mountain?

"There must be something wrong, where is it?" Xie Yunxiao rubbed his brows and sorted out everything again.

Seeing Xie Yunxiao's appearance, Xiao An left the room. He knew that Xie Yunxiao needed a quiet environment at this time.

As the sky darkened, a bright moon rose from the eastern sky. The silver-white moonlight fell, and the entire Jiuwen Mountain suddenly became hazy, vast and mysterious.

"The root of the problem is that in the restaurant, why do you only think that the waiter has something wrong?"

The black bird has been on Xie Yunxiao's sleeve, and it already knows the whole thing.

It spread its wings and flew around the house without making any sound.

Xie Yunxiao's eyes suddenly lit up. It was Xiao An who went to investigate the situation inside the restaurant.

Xiao An is trustworthy, but if the restaurant owner has a layout, Xiao An may not be able to see through it.

"Indeed, it's time to go to the restaurant!"

Xie Yunxiao glanced at the black sparrow. Sometimes, the sparrow could think more clearly than he did.

"I should have thought of this a long time ago, but I just trust Xiao An too much!"

Xie Yunxiao has not yet completely gotten used to his status as the thirteenth generation Guiguzi, so this is not enough.

Counting all the ghosts in the world, if they can't even solve this problem, it would be a fool's errand.

Xie Yunxiao smiled indifferently and ignored all this. He began to think about the matter of cultivation. The innate Taoist body was so powerful that it could not be picked out among ten thousand, but the path of cultivation was ten thousand times more difficult than that of ordinary people.

This road is destined to be difficult, but the future is bright.

After one night of practice, the amount of true energy in Xie Yunxiao's Dantian Qi Sea was as large as a tank of water.

But his strange Dantian, which is filled with endless vitality and is infinitely desolate, can't even describe the amount of water in this tank. It is obvious that there is still a long way to go before it can be cultivated to perfection.

Xie Yunxiao's dantian is indeed too special. It is like a dry sea, exuding an aura of primitive chaos, waiting for hundreds of rivers to merge into the sea.

After a night of practice, Xie Yunxiao was in high spirits. After washing his face and having breakfast, he took Xiao An down the mountain.

At this moment, several young people came forward and blocked the way of Xie Yunxiao and Xiao An.

"Are you trying to escape?" The leading young man had a smile on his face. His name was Xie Long, and he was once Xie Chuan's younger brother. Less than three days after Xie Chuan's death, he became Xie Ming's man.

Xie Ming looked at Xie Yunxiao, which made Xie Long very uncomfortable.

"As a member of the Xie family, you should know the consequences of running away. Although I can't practice, my brain is still good!"

Xie Yunxiao's words were both a gun and a stick, but they were also very cryptic. People who couldn't wrap their heads around them wouldn't be able to hear them for a while.

In his impression, Xie Long was the kind of person who was not very bright, but behind him was the second elder of the Xie family.

What Xie Chuan values ​​​​is not Xie Long as a person, but the second elder behind him.

Similarly, what Xie Ming values ​​​​is not the power of the second elder?

Logically speaking, after Xie Chuan's death, Xie Ming had completely taken over the battle for the title of heir to the Xie family, and Xie Chen had no chance no matter how he looked at it.

But sometimes, the thing that can deceive us the most is our eyes, because what our eyes can see is often the part on the surface.

"This Xie Ming is more powerful than imagined. At this time, instead of being arrogant, he is taking steps step by step and staying vigilant. I am afraid that most of the men and horses in Xie Chuan's hands will fall into his hands!" Xie Yunxiao's heart think.

Xie Long snorted and said, "You'd better not run away, otherwise I will be the first to catch you!"

Xie Yunxiao rubbed the center of his brows, thinking in his mind that it was really difficult to talk to this person who was not very smart.

He ignored it and continued down the mountain with Xiao An.

Xie Long was stunned for a moment. Before he came to intercept Xie Yunxiao, he had already thought of thousands of ways to embarrass Xie Yunxiao and prevent him from investigating the case.

But after seeing Xie Yunxiao, he felt like a huge mountain was weighing on his heart. His mind kept buzzing and he was at a loss. As a result, many of the strategies he had thought up before were useless until Xie Yunxiao He didn't react until Xiao left.

Tianqi City is a city at the foot of Jiuwen Mountain. It was developed due to the Xie family, an ancient family. Although it is far less lively and prosperous than Xianyang, the capital of Daning, it is definitely ranked first among Daning cities.

Xie Yunxiao and Xiao An came to the city and headed straight for the Red Lake Tower.

There is a famous lake in Tianqi City, the Red Lake, and the Red Lake Tower is right next to the Red Lake.

The people who come here to eat are not ordinary people.

Xie Yunxiao and Xiao An walked into the restaurant. When the shopkeeper saw the two of them, his expression changed slightly, and then he greeted them with a smile: "It's Mr. Xie who's here!"

Xie Yunxiao saw every move of the shopkeeper, and he chuckled: "The crabs at Honghu Tower are excellent, I will order another one today!"

Xie Yunxiao spoke clearly, and the shopkeeper's expression changed again, but he still had a smile on his face and said: "Young Master Xie, you can order whatever you want, and I will arrange it for you right now!"

He called a waiter over to greet Xie Yunxiao. Xie Yunxiao asked for a private room as usual. After entering, he said to Xiao An: "Keep an eye on the shopkeeper!"

Xiao An nodded. Something was indeed wrong with the shopkeeper of Honghu Tower today.

At the same time, he also understood why Xie Yunxiao wanted to come to the restaurant.

"Sir, the problem isn't the drinks, is it the plate of crabs?" Xiao An asked.

Xie Yunxiao said: "You have checked the drinks. There is no problem with the drinks. There is a problem with the waiter. But how did he drug him? There were several dishes on that day. I only mentioned the most conspicuous crab. Is the problem? Crab, I actually don’t know, but judging from the shopkeeper’s reaction, it’s probably not bad!”

"This Hong Lao Er, I almost fell into his trap!" Xiao An's eyes were sharp.

Xie Yunxiao said: "You are just anxious to find the murderer. Remember, we are not in a hurry at any time, because being anxious will make us irrational!"

"Xiao An knows!" He exited the room and came in shortly after and said, "Master, Mr. Hong has left the restaurant!"

"Then let's follow and have a look!" Xie Yunxiao stood up and left the restaurant with Xiao An.

Hong Laoer, the shopkeeper of Honghu Restaurant, got on a donkey cart after coming out of the restaurant.

Xie Yunxiao was very familiar with Tianqi City. Looking at the direction Hong Laoer was going, he followed Hong Laoer slightly slower, but he did not lose him.

In half a stick of incense, Hong Laoer left Tianqi City and came to an inn in the suburbs.

"I really didn't expect that there is a problem with this inn!" Xiao An said.

Xie Yunxiao didn't say anything and walked directly into the inn.

"Seventh Elder!" Xiao An shouted loudly, with horror in his eyes.

Who would have thought that what he saw here was actually the Seventh Elder.

"Oh, it's Yunxiao and you guys!" The seventh elder had a look of surprise in his eyes.

Xiao An glanced at the entire inn. At this point, there was not a single guest in the inn. Xiao An checked every room in the inn again, but there was still no one there.

After Hong Lao Er came in, he disappeared for no reason, but here he met the Seventh Elder. What is going on?

"Master, that's not right!" Xiao An didn't know what was wrong, but he felt irritable in his heart.

"Seventh Elder!" Xie Yunxiao said.

The seventh elder asked: "What's the matter?"

"You are not the seventh elder!" Xie Yunxiao said.

The seventh elder smiled indifferently, with a kind and kind look on his face: "You kid, what are you talking about? I am not the seventh elder, who am I?"

"You are Hong Laoer, and the man in black who went to my yard last night was also you!" Xie Yunxiao said word by word.

The seventh elder's expression was slightly condensed, and his expression was very stiff.

"Shopkeeper Hong's disguise skills are really amazing. Not only can he change his face, but he can also change his body shape. So much so that I was in a big trouble yesterday and couldn't find out anything!" Xie Yunxiao's eyes flickered and he released a wave of A sharp breath.

The seventh elder tried his best to stay calm and said, "I don't know what you are talking about!"

Xie Yunxiao said: "It can't be fake, and it can't be true. You were hit by Xie Ming last night. Even if you have a magical elixir, you won't be able to recover for a while!"

The Seventh Elder's expression finally changed, and he sighed: "Xie Yunxiao is Xie Yunxiao. If you can practice, who among the younger generation can compete with you?"

"Tell me, what happened to the Seventh Elder?" Xie Yunxiao's eyes were sharp, and there was an indescribable majesty on his body.

Hong Laoer's mind was intense, and he obviously did not sense any cultivation aura from Xie Yunxiao, but this invisible pressure made him feel a sense of solemnity.

"You can take a guess!" Hong Laoer's eyes were filled with a strange look.

Xie Yunxiao sighed secretly. It seemed that the possibility of the seventh elder being alive was extremely small.

Hong Lao'er's cultivation level is in the fourth realm of Great Zhoutian, while the seventh elder is in the fifth realm of Xiaoxiaoyao. It would be very difficult for Hong Lao'er to kill the seventh elder, unless there is a plot.

There is another possibility that Hong Laoer is not alone and has helpers.

"You shouldn't have followed me!" Hong Laoer had regret and pity in his eyes.

Xie Yunxiao said: "What I want is the truth, why do you want to kill Xie Chuan and put the blame on me?"

Hong Laoer's expression changed, he let out a weird smile, and when he raised his right hand, a black wave of air rolled out.

Xiao An snorted coldly, drew out his long sword, and stabbed straight out.

With a bang, both of them involuntarily stepped back a few steps.
