After a few breaths, Yang Zhen calmed down and expressed her judgment to the three confused Jin Dan ancestors.
"One of the disciple's speculations is very unreasonable..."
"My disciple always believed that Qin Zhu brought the orb to the cave and handed it over to the person who connected it there..."
"Now it seems that this is completely misguided, because there is something that doesn't make sense——"
"Suppose Qin Zhu only met the connector in the stone cave. With her serious injury, as her accomplice, why didn't the connector help her? Even if she couldn't be cured, he could carry her to the second stone chamber and let her She's getting better rest, just with a little effort. So, it doesn't make sense here."
"Couldn't it be that after meeting the contact person, she was still waiting for other important people, so she stayed at the entrance?" Dai Chenghong questioned.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out," Yang Zhen replied: "However, from Qin Zhu's participation in the planning to personally stealing the orb, the entire process is interlocking and leaves a way out, which shows that this woman is very thoughtful. I think that for such a person, Even if she is waiting for someone, she should be in a safer place deeper in the cave and not put herself in danger."
"There is another possibility," Dai Chenghong said: "She has not waited for the contact. The orb was hidden somewhere in the cave by her!"
"This possibility is very low." Yang Zhen immediately shook her head: "The treasure should be given away as soon as it is obtained. If it is left in your hands, all the previous efforts will be wasted. Qin Zhu has been planning this for at least half a year, and he will not fail to do so. Taking this into consideration, we arranged for people to respond in a timely manner.”
"So, I want to walk the route she took after leaving the teleportation array that day!"
"I believe she must be sending the orb away on the way!" Yang Zhen said firmly.
…
The weather in the mountains can change at any time. It is obviously a good weather with bright moon and few stars, but in the blink of an eye it becomes stormy. Thick clouds seemed to emerge from behind the mountains, covering the sky tightly.
The group of people braved the rain and came to the path leading from the teleportation array to the sect's station.
Dozens of luminous pearls were suspended in the night sky, reflecting the area as if it were daytime.
Yang Zhen really didn't expect that he just proposed to come and take a look, but he attracted countless people to watch the fun.
Even including three real Jindan people.
Such a formation made the atmosphere here a little tense. Apart from the patter of rain, no one spoke.
Yang Zhen squatted silently next to a bush, with a calm expression on his face, but in his heart, he was filled with surprise!
Yiyi sent the message he needed!
"At dusk five days ago, a woman in a yellow shirt stayed here for more than ten breaths."
"During this period, she hid something under the dead branches."
"That thing is a bead tied with blue silk thread!"
Yang Zhen continued to listen, and soon, more important news came over:
"About a quarter of an hour later, someone came to the bush and took away the beads!"
"This man is wearing white clothes, which hides his face. You can't tell whether he is a man or a woman."
"He/she walked forward along the path."
Yang Zhen suppressed the excitement in her heart and stood up slowly.
My judgment was correct, the beads had indeed been given away long ago! …
But, who is this person taking the beads?
White clothes...
Could it be an inner disciple?
He walked slowly along the path. The news coming from all the way was that this person was walking in the direction of the sect's headquarters unhurriedly.
Yang Zhen frowned and said nothing. If this person is a disciple of the sect, how can he express his judgment so that these people can believe it?
"Junior Brother Yang!" Someone shouted to him: "It's not this path! Qin Zhu passed by the bush that day and fled directly into the mountains."
Yang Zhen turned around and recognized that the person calling was Liu. He was the disciple of the Hall of Beasts who had followed Qin Zhu with a breath-taking dog a few days ago.
He cupped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Liu, according to your judgment that day, Qin Zhu had been crouching in the bushes for more than ten breaths. Do you think it was possible for her to hide Dongxz here?
Senior Brother Liu pondered: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."
"If someone comes here later, is it possible for the breath-taking dogs to find this person?"
"This is impossible now. The Breathing Dog has smelled too many things in the past few days, and it is no longer possible to distinguish them."
"Senior Brother Liu," Yang Zhen stepped forward, enthusiastically embraced this disciple of the Hall of Beasts who had left a good impression on him, and switched to voice transmission:
"Junior brother, here is a bold guess..."
"… Please also ask Senior Brother Liu to help. If we can really find the connector, then Junior Brother is willing to share the sect's reward equally with Senior Brother!"
"This..." Senior Brother Liu hesitated: "If this is wrong, wouldn't it offend someone!"
He also responded via voice transmission.
"What are you afraid of?" Yang Zhen cheered him up: "Wealth is gained through danger! If you make a mistake, you will be punished at most. If you succeed, that will be a real contribution!"
…
After a while, Yang Zhen asked Zhao Beiqing to borrow the sword hidden in the square box and handed it to Senior Brother Liu.
Senior Brother Liu took out the breathing dog from the spirit beast bag and pretended to let it smell it.
Then, the monster came to the bushes, sniffed for a while, and suddenly roared loudly!
"Report to the Palace Master!" Senior Brother Liu cupped his hands towards Hechuan, with ecstasy on his simple face: "Qin Zhu should have placed the orb here on that day!"
Hekawakami suddenly became happy, and then he realized something, and a trace of gloom passed over his face.
The elder of the Zi Mansion from the Hall of Hundred Beasts in the crowd looked meaningfully at Master Nephew Liu, and then at Yang Zhen who was standing next to him, with a smile on his lips.
"Call all the disciples and ask them one by one who passed by here five nights ago." Ochuan ordered Taoist Master Quan Feng beside him.
Obviously, Palace Master Oikawa has realized that the most likely person to appear on such a remote road without attracting anyone's attention is undoubtedly a disciple of the sect.
Quan Feng's lips murmured, but in the end he didn't say anything. He cupped his hands and accepted the order.
After a few breaths, all the sect disciples stationed at the station rushed over, a total of thirty-two people, including ten inner disciples and twenty-two outer disciples.
These people also include several disciples who have been here to watch the excitement.
"Is everyone here?" Oikawa asked coldly.
"Reporting to the Palace Master," Quan Feng replied: "Except for the six junior brothers and sisters, everyone else is here."
"Where did those six people go?"
"Five days ago, due to the blockade of the entire Langshan Mountain and the various teleportation formations, it was necessary to send disciples to deliver the message, so these people were selected."
He Chuan felt something bad in his heart, but at this moment, he heard Yang Zhen interject: "Senior Brother Quan Feng, how many of these people are there in the outer sect and the inner sect?"
"There are three people each." Quan Feng glanced at Hechuan and saw that he didn't stop him, so he answered honestly.
"Who are the three people from the inner sect?" Yang Zhen continued to ask.
"Qi Kexiu, Zhang Ruqiu, Liu Yu."
"Which of these three people will pass by this path that night?"
"Ah!" Taoist Master Quan Feng's eyes suddenly widened and he said in a voiceless voice: "Zhang Ruqiu! It's Zhang Ruqiu!"
"At that time, she happened to take over her shift and left from the teleportation array square!".
