The fifth line was chatting with Hong Yaqiu at a critical moment, when Lord Hong Ying rushed over.
Because Mr. Hong knows Zhizhi's true identity, he will definitely rush over after learning the news.
But this just ruined the fifth line's plan. Although he felt that Hong Yaqiu did resemble the dead water fairy, he always felt that something was wrong.
If she was really the Dead Water Fairy, then why could she stay in the Hong Mansion so calmly without taking any countermeasures after she was discovered? This was obviously unreasonable for a character like the Dead Water Fairy. But if she is not a dead water fairy, her garden does have many similarities with Zheng Jing's house.
With all these doubts, the fifth group of three people followed Mr. Hong to the dinner in the lobby. Although Mr. Hong's official position is not too high, he is quite upright.
It's just that Mr. Hong came in a hurry just now, and judging from the situation, he seemed to know the purpose of the fifth line. The fifth line didn't know how to talk about this, so he just toasted to the adults. He originally
He is a person who rarely speaks in front of strangers. Although he is acquainted with Mr. Hong, he is not familiar with him after all. Moreover, the fifth line dislikes dealing with people in the government, so he has nothing to say.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, because Mr. Hong was just a prefect, and his official position still seemed too low in front of the princess, so he did not dare to say much.
"Master Hong, do you know the purpose of the three of us coming?" Zhizhi, on the other hand, spoke quickly and got straight to the point.
"A guess or two, but I don't know if it's correct?" Master Hong replied.
"Oh! Since your Excellency has guessed it, I must have heard the news." Lord Hong is the prefect and is in charge of the government and army's anti-Japanese affairs, so he must have heard the exact news.
"I've heard a little bit about it. I guess the princess is here for my little girl Yaqiu, right?" Lord Hong could only ask tentatively.
"My lord is right. I wonder what your lord thinks after hearing the rumors?" Zhizhi asked.
"Actually, my daughter has been a little weird many years ago, but the official has never figured out the reason. Over the years, I have also helped her find many doctors, but they have not been successful." Master Hong replied.
"What's weird about Miss Yaqiu?"
"First of all, she often sleepwalks and disappears inexplicably, but every few days, she will come back on her own, but it is as usual, calm and calm, without any change. I asked several times, but she always asked Without any results, Yaqiu just said that she was going out for a walk. But most of the disappearances were at night, and a few were during the day. But I don’t know where she was wandering around?" Mr. Hong looked really confused.
"Didn't your Excellency send someone to follow Miss Yaqiu?" asked the fifth line.
"Yes! But every time Yaqiu disappears, he moves extremely quickly, as if he is a different person. None of the servants in the lower government can keep up with him. Most of them have been abandoned by Yaqiu before he leaves the house. ." Lord Hong replied.
"Oh! It seems that Miss Yaqiu's martial arts is really not bad!" The fifth line sighed.
"What? Fifth Young Master, you said my little girl knows martial arts? But she didn't learn martial arts from a teacher when she was growing up!" Master Hong said even more puzzled.
"This is strange! The last time I met with the young lady, the young lady tested her with extraordinary skills, and her skills were not weak at all. How can you say that she did not learn from a teacher?" The fifth line does not believe it at all.
"Yes! Mr. Hong, when we came back from the Star Sword Gate that day, the little girl was also injured by Miss Yaqiu on the canal. The princess can testify about this." Wei Yan also did not believe it.
"Oh! Is there such a thing? But Yaqiu has always stayed at home and rarely goes out, except for the few days when she disappeared inexplicably when she was sleepwalking. It seems that Yaqiu's disappearance in the past few days was really not simple!" Hong The adult became more and more worried.
"Has the lady sleepwalked and disappeared recently?" the fifth line asks.
"It's possible that he was missing for several hours the night before yesterday." Mr. Hong answered truthfully.
The night before yesterday was the day everyone saw Hong Yaqiu, so it seemed unmistakable.
"So, Miss Yaqiu must be the dead water fairy." Zhizhi finally came to a conclusion at this time.
"No, I believe my daughter, she is definitely not the Dead Water Fairy. One of them has a misunderstanding." Mr. Hong immediately panicked.
"There are indeed many doubts in this, and there may be many secrets that we don't know." The fifth line agrees with Mr. Hong's point of view.
"The time is correct, and everyone saw it with their own eyes, how could it be wrong?" Zhizhi asked.
"But if it were you, after someone discovered your identity, you wouldn't leave, but just sit here and wait for death?" The fifth line asked.
"This... doesn't seem to make sense!" Zhizhi immediately felt something was wrong.
"By the way! Why do the carps in your backyard pond have black spots?" The fifth line asked Hong again.
"Well! Ever since my little girl became abnormal, the fish in the pond has gradually changed like this. As for the reason, I really don't know the reason." Lord Hong replied.
"Then how long has it been since the young lady has been acting like this?" The fifth line asks again.
"Seven or eight years ago!" Master Hong replied.
"Okay! It seems that there is indeed some clarity in this matter. If we don't clarify many things, we really can't solve the mystery of the Dead Water Fairy. If Miss Yaqiu is wronged, I will find out the facts and find out who it is. I'm here to do some mischief. Sir, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave." As the fifth line was said, he said goodbye to Lord Hong and returned to Xiaoyaomen with Zhizhi and Wei Yan.
The fifth line felt at this time that only by consulting seniors like Ren Xiaoyao and Tang Mugong could we gain anything in this matter.
So after the fifth line came back, he immediately consulted with the masters and seniors such as Sect Leader Ren, Tang Mugong, Kuangxiao Yuege, Ji Nansong and Sun Xiaowu, and told the seniors and seniors one by one the truth he had heard from Hong Da. .
However, after hearing this, none of the experts could guess the truth. Instead, they all fell into deep thought.
"Could it be Ghost Daozi's soul-moving technique?" Tang Mugong speculated.
"It doesn't look like it. And Mr. Hong said that Miss Yaqiu has been acting strangely for seven or eight years. Ghost Daozi wouldn't be so boring, just staring at this weak woman for seven or eight years, right? Besides, if it was really a ghost Daozi, then her martial arts method is wrong!" Ren Xiaoyao immediately denied it.
Everyone knows that once Kidaozi uses the soul-removing technique, the person whose soul has been transferred will definitely have traces of the poisonous beast gorge in the way he uses martial arts. However, Dead Water Fairy's martial arts is completely unique, and she can also control water ghosts to fight against people, which is very different from Poisonous Beast Gorge's martial arts.
"Can't Old Sect Master Ren's hypnosis also be able to control others? Could it be related to hypnosis?" Kuangxiao Yuege also guessed.
"Impossible. Hypnosis only uses other people's minds to achieve the purpose of temporarily controlling others. This technique cannot last long, and it cannot explain the origin of Miss Yaqiu's martial arts, so it cannot be hypnosis." Ren Xiaoyao added Denied.
Hypnosis cannot last long, and Ms. Hong's disappearance lasted for days or hours at most, and it was impossible to explain where Hong Yaqiu's martial arts came from. Obviously, the theory of hypnosis cannot be justified.
"I thought of a strange technique. Maybe none of you here have heard of this strange technique. Maybe only Master Sun has heard of it." At this time, Ji Nansong, the oldest and most prestigious, Finally spoke.
"What Mr. Ji said was puppetry?" Sun Xiaowu said knowingly.
"Yes, it's puppet magic!" Ji Nansong replied.
