Looking at the entire Jiuhua Mountain, it is true that only Master Songyang and Han Yao are the biggest suspects. Whether there is anyone else, Tianyang Zhenren can be counted as one, but he is the leader of Jiuhua Sect. If it was really because of Mo Yunshen, he would have died three years ago in Shaoyang Peak. , you can find a reason to start, will you wait until today?
What's more, according to Tianyang Zhenren's identity as the leader and his position in the righteous path, he doesn't even bother to do such a despicable thing. Therefore, Mu Jingyu and Qin Yunchuan excluded him at the same time.
Qin Yunchuan stood up, clasped his hands behind his back, and paced while analyzing: "Jingyu, according to my opinion, Master Songyang, uncle Mo Yunshen was killed because of your unauthorized actions in Wuji Ruins. The loss of your uncle's life is not enough to cause him to be angry towards you."
Mu Jingyu nodded and said: "Brother Qin is right. After I had a goal in my mind, I also considered the thoughts of Master Songyang in detail. He must have been holding a grudge because I didn't obey his orders. At heart."
After so many years of contact, Mu Jingyu has long seen that as the leader of Tianluo Peak, Master Songyang is in charge of Jiuhua Sect's sect rules and punishments, and he is the most severe and harsh, and he attaches great importance to the superiority of elders and younger ones! That's why he had a prejudice against Mu Jingyu and refused to forgive him.
Qin Yunchuan said: "Jingyu, you are right. Master Songyang's uncle's temperament... is indeed a bit harsh. Not only the entire sect knows about it, but even other sects have heard about it. I want to say that Master Songyang is because you didn't do it back then. It does make sense that he only followed orders and acted without permission, only to hold a grudge."
"However, we can't give up our suspicion on Master Songyang's uncle just because we know his temperament." Mu Jingyu followed closely.
"Of course not." Qin Yunchuan said: "It's just... considering his status in the Jiuhua Sect, we still have to be careful to verify him. Without conclusive evidence, we must not act rashly."
"That's natural." Mu Jingyu nodded and said, "So, the person I am most suspicious of right now is Han Yao."
"Han Yao, Han Yao." Qin Yunchuan stopped and said in a deep voice: "Speaking of Han Yao, when he was in Zhishoutang, he was indeed hostile to you because you and Yingying were too close, and he was also hostile to you. They have made trouble secretly over and over again. If we want to say who is the most likely, he is the first suspect."
As Qin Yunchuan talked about the past, scenes from that year appeared in front of Mu Jingyu's eyes.
Han Yao first sent Yi Hong to take the opportunity to work with him to cut down Yunsongzhu, and then secretly set up an ambush to make himself suffer. Then in Huayang City, he stopped two people from buying Shen Mengdie, which almost caused Shen Mengdie to fall into the devil's cave.
And all of this was just the result of Han Yao being disrupted by the sudden appearance of Mu Jingyu when he was pursuing Su Yingying, so he held a grudge and waited for revenge!
Mu Jingyu said harshly: "Han Yao, despite looking humble and polite in front of outsiders, is actually full of bad intentions. I have long disliked him!"
Qin Yunchuan waved his hand to signal Mu Jingyu not to be impulsive, and then analyzed: "However, as far as I know, ever since Han Yao used his own strength to worship Yuanyang Master's uncle Jin Yuanfeng on the Yuxiao Stage, , has been cultivating in a low profile, and rarely behaves out of the ordinary. To say that he is the mastermind behind secretly colluding with the man in black robe and framed you everywhere... Even if he has this intention, he does not have the strength to make the man in black robe obey. !”
Yes, Qin Yunchuan is right. The true identity of the man in black robe is the Jiuli tribe who retreated to the Netherworld Ghost State thousands of years ago! Their strength can be seen just from the battle in Mount Emei a few days ago. Han Yao, a junior disciple of the Jiuhua Sect, could at best be regarded as their spy, but he could not persuade Elder Gu Li and others to frame Mu Jingyu for his own personal grudges.
"Well..." Mu Jingyu also fell into deep thought for a while. Now, the two objects of suspicion have been denied for various reasons. Could it be that... the most unlikely Master Tianyang is actually the most likely?
At this moment, Qin Yunchuan suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "But... I suddenly remembered that the Han family where Han Yao lives is one of the lower nine sects. It also enjoys extremely high status in the Western Hanyuan State, which is close to the Netherworld Ghost State. Great reputation. Almost all the righteous sect families in this state are headed by the Han family of Ice City. You said..."
Qin Yunchuan had already learned from the mouth of Zhen Tianyang that he and Mu Jingyu had concluded that the men in black robes were the Jiuli tribe who had retreated to the Netherworld Ghost State. So, from Han Yao's family background, he thought of a possibility.
"Not bad!" Mu Jingyu suddenly stood up and said: "Xihan Yuanzhou is close to the Netherworld Ghost State. If the black-robed man wants to reappear in Jiuzhou and do something, the first person he must surrender or win over is Yihan. All the sects and families in Xihan Yuanzhou, headed by the Bingcheng Han family!"
"More importantly, didn't Brother Di say in the Baozhai Nunnery in Mount Emei? The young man in black robe once told Brother Di that he was not only our old friend, but also because my father had surrendered to the people in black robe. Are you forcing him to do things for the man in black robe?"
"If my guess is correct, that person must be Han Yao! What he said must be 30% true and 70% false to convince Brother Di to rush to Mount Emei to look for us!" Mu Jingyu became more and more angry as he spoke. Excited, as if he had grasped the truth of the matter.
"Jingyu, what you said is correct. But...but..." Qin Yunchuan's mind was in confusion at the moment. Although he was somewhat convinced of Mu Jingyu's analysis, he was also concerned about other questions that came up immediately. Somewhat confused.
"But have you ever thought about it, if the young man in black robe is really Han Yao, why would he want to disturb Senior Di and go to the bottom of the lake in Baozhai'an to rescue Master Suci? Is it true that, as they said, Suci is because Did you devise this plan after learning that you needed Tianxiang wood to refine elixirs for Bi Yun?"
"Even so, as the mastermind behind framed you, why did Han Yao help Master Suci? Why did the black-robed people and Yaoming Palace mobilize troops to attack Mount Emei, making things complicated and confusing? "
Qin Yunchuan's few questions instantly stopped Mu Jingyu. The latter scratched his head and couldn't figure out the key for a while.
"Oh, brother Qin, you have confused me." Mu Jingyu said, "No matter what you say, the biggest suspect now is Han Yao! As for other suspicions, we will wait until we catch Han Yao. Can you tell me the real reason?"
The current situation is like a messy ball of thread. After finally pulling out a thread, it seems that more mysteries have been revealed.
After Qin Yunchuan thought for a moment, he agreed with Mu Jingyu's opinion: "You are right. Since we have determined that Han Yao is the biggest suspect, we will first seize his line and pursue him. Not only must we track down Han Yao, but we must also investigate Yuan Fang." !”
Having said this, Qin Yunchuan paused and continued: "Not only the two of them, I think Zhao Zhengming and Shi Jiang also need to find out."
Mu Jingyu wondered: "If you investigate Yuan Fang, I can still agree. But you also want to investigate Zhao Zhengming and Shi Jiang...and why? Is it just because they and Han Yao have gone together? Is it close?"
"No, no." Qin Yunchuan said with a smile: "Zhao Zhengming and Shi Jiang, like Han Yao, are descendants of aristocratic families in Xihan Yuanzhou. Moreover, their families are family friends and their relationship has always been very close. If the Han family in Ice City defected to the black-robed men, then the Zhao and Shi families would definitely follow suit!"
"Brother Qin is still thoughtful!" Mu Jingyu nodded and said, "It's just that after Brother Qin goes out, please don't tell the head master what you and I said today."
"Huh? Jingyu, do you have any concerns?" Qin Yunchuan asked doubtfully.
Mu Jingyu smiled and said: "According to my analysis, whether it is Han Yao, Zhao Zhengming, Shi Jiang and others, they are at most low-level spies secretly inserted by the men in black robes in the Jiuhua Sect. Presumably, they have identities above them. Someone with a higher status exists! If the head master knows about it and acts rashly to alert the snake, it will inevitably arouse their vigilance and be detrimental to our secret investigation. "
This is also the key reason why Mu Jingyu did not reveal the reason why he followed Master Yunyang back to the mountain during the conversation with Master Tianyang.
Qin Yunchuan agreed: "Your concerns are good. But what should we do next?"
"Two roads, two-pronged approach!" Mu Jingyu stretched out two fingers and said: "Is this the first road? Brother Qin needs to work hard and secretly investigate the disciples and elders who have come in and out of the master during this period. Take a look. Have Han Yao and others ever left the school, when did they go out, when did they come back, and which elder assigned them!"
Qin Yunchuan nodded while listening. The reason why Mu Jingyu asked him to investigate the matter was to start from this aspect and prove from the time perspective that Han Yao and several others had enough time to do these things.
Mu Jingyu said, bent his middle finger and continued: "The second way is to trouble Brother Qin and find an opportunity to go to Jiuhua Mountain and go to the three nearby cities to look for the disciples of Senior Taier's Tianji Pavilion. "
Qin Yunchuan asked curiously: "Looking for Senior Tai Er? What's the purpose of this?"
"Brother Qin, do you still remember that Brother Di once said that he met the young man in black robe among the blue water and clouds?"
"I understand!" Qin Yunchuan said: "You mean, you want to find out from Senior Di's mouth whether the young man in black robe looks like Han Yao or someone else!"
Mu Jingyu smiled and said: "Brother Di has a rough temper. If you ask him to describe the appearance of the black-robed boy in words, he will definitely not be able to explain clearly. Senior Qi Jue claims that he is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and wine. It was dictated by Brother Di. Senior Qi Jue Only when you draw it by hand can it be complete and correct.”
Qin Yunchuan said: "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely convey your meaning to Senior Tai Er completely."
Mu Jingyu suddenly hesitated and whispered: "If possible, I hope Senior Taier can tell me Bi Yun's current situation. And... you must conceal the news that I am being detained in the Jiuhua Sect. I'm afraid of her...afraid of her..."
Qin Yunchuan patted Mu Jingyu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, I understand what you mean, so don't worry."
After the two brothers went over the details again and again, it was already ten minutes before midnight, and Qin Yunchuan was ready to say goodbye to Mu Jingyu and return to his residence.
When he came to the entrance of the cave, Qin Yunchuan suddenly turned around and stared at Mu Jingyu for a while with a smile and admiration, leaving the latter a little confused.
"Brother Qin, don't keep looking at me like this! You're making me..."
Qin Yunchuan suddenly came back, put his hands on Mu Jingyu's shoulders, and said, "Jingyu, you have grown up a lot during this time! You are no longer the reckless young man who only used strength instead of brains." .”
Yes, I have indeed grown up. Mu Jingyu let out a long breath, raised his head, and looked at the stone wall above his head with distracted eyes. Ever since Mo Yun found Qingniu Jing's cave, scenes from the past came to mind, including bitterness and sweetness, joy and annoyance.
It was these painful, sad, or joyful experiences that allowed him to grow from a reckless child who didn't understand anything to where he is now.
After a long time, Mu Jingyu withdrew his gaze, his eyes glowing with vitality and said: "From now on, let everyone in the world know that I, Mu Jingyu, have been reborn!"
"What a rebirth!" Qin Yunchuan said in a loud voice: "Don't use force but use your brain in everything. Don't be impulsive when encountering problems, but consider the overall situation! Jingyu, since you can restrain your mind and follow Uncle Yunyang back to the sect, big brother, I will I know, you’ve realized this.”
The two brothers hugged each other tightly and patted each other on the back. Qin Yunchuan opened the door of the cave and disappeared into the vast night.
