The meeting hall!
A sundial stood in front of the door, casting a slanting shadow.
When the hurried bell rang, not long after, starlights of different colors came one after another, fell in front of the hall, and condensed into different figures.
Metal, water, fire, earth...the four great warlords are here!
A corner of his white robe fluttered, and Li Guofeng stepped out of the starlight, frowning to see the situation clearly:
Xu Xiurong stood expressionless next to the bell in front of the hall, holding a bell hammer in his hand, his soft face filled with murderous intent.
Next to her stood Ji Pingan.
"What happened? You summoned me urgently?" Li Guofeng's eyes only stayed on Ji Ping'an for a moment, and then moved to Xu Xiurong.
"Yes, Junior Sister Xu, something big happened." Fang Liuhuo stepped out, sparks flying around his body, and his two red eyebrows raised.
"According to the hospital rules, the bell is not allowed to be played unless there is an important matter, Mr. Xu Jianhou, I hope you can come up with enough reasons." Bai Chuan's deep voice came, with obvious displeasure at being disturbed.
The honest man Huang Chen didn't say a word and also cast a confused look.
When Xu Xiurong saw everyone gathered, he raised his hand and dropped the hammer with a "clang" sound. He glanced at Bai Chuan and said in a cold voice:
"Just now, someone in the prison forged my order to trick Ji Ping'an into leaving Qintian Prison and going to Baidi. After he arrived, he was assassinated by a martial artist at the peak of Qi Yang."
Everyone suddenly changed their color.
"Junior sister Xu, are you serious about this?!" Fang Liuhuo was impatient and frowned.
The faces of the other prison princes, including Bai Chuan, also darkened.
There are often fights in the spiritual world. If just a disciple is attacked... it's not a big deal.
But false warrants and deliberate murder are completely different in nature.
Because the core of this matter lies in the possibility of infiltration in Qintian Prison.
Any organization is extremely sensitive to the infiltration of foreign enemies and will not ignore it.
Xu Xiurong said coldly: "Could I be joking? Many people witnessed the assassination, and there was even the assassin's corpse as evidence. He still carries this with him."
She threw out the animal skin that Ji Pingan had picked up.
"Monster clan!" Several supervisors recognized it at a glance.
Li Guofeng said solemnly: "So, the other party is the secret agent of the demon clan buried in the capital of God? Come to assassinate my genius, Qin Tianjian? "
Although the two tribes have not used weapons for hundreds of years, their camps are still hostile, and both sides are also very interested in killing the new generation of geniuses on the opposite side.
Ji Ping'an showed great talent not long ago, and the demon clan learned about it, so he sent someone to assassinate him... This is a reasonable reason.
"It's hard to make a conclusion yet," Bai Chuan shook his head and analyzed calmly:
"We have many enemies. Although the major sects are friendly on the surface, they may not be free from dirty deeds in private. This is not the first time that the demon clan has been blamed and diverted our attention. Especially when the Grand Prize of the City of Gods is approaching, it is logically unlikely to be possible at this time. .”
Everyone nodded, approving his analysis.
"Apart from this, are there any other clues?" Li Guofeng asked: "You said the assassin has been killed? Where is the body? You can ask Daomen to help ask for the spirit."
Xu Xiurong's eyebrows were cold: "I have already asked the spirit. In fact, if it were not for the meeting of the saint of the state religion, Ji Ping'an would have been dead. "
Saint? Everyone was a little surprised, but they didn't ask for details. They just said: "What was the result of asking the spirit?"
Xu Xiurong's face was as dark as water. He suddenly looked at Bai Chuan and sneered: "Don't you know, Mr. Bai Jianhou?"
Bai Chuan snorted and said: "Xu Jianhou's words are interesting, why do you ask me? Could it be that I should send someone to kill him? "
However, after this ironic sentence was thrown out, the atmosphere suddenly became weird.
Bai Chuan was stunned for a moment, then frowned at Xu Xiurong's gaze: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Xu Xiurong sighed deeply and dropped a bombshell: "The saint asked the spirit on the spot and saw a figure in the assassin's memory, a suspected accomplice. And this person... was a disciple of Bai Jianhou. Peng Yuan, Peng Si calendar!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people changed drastically.
Bai Chuan was stunned at first, then his face turned red with anger, and he said sternly:
"Xu Xiurong! Don't try to denounce someone's innocence out of thin air! Although you and I have our differences, everything is within the rules of the hospital. It's not like you do this randomly."
He was furious.
Xu Xiurong sneered and said: "Everyone knows that you are defending your own shortcomings, but there is no need to rush to refute. The results of the soul inquiry will not be false. If you don't believe it, you can ask the saint of the state religion to come and testify later."
Although Yu Yu's cultivation level is not high, he has a good status as Xin Yaoguang's direct disciple. This kind of witness is still credible.
Everyone believed him immediately. Baichuan's chest heaved with anger. He was the most defensive and said immediately: "Okay. I'll ask Peng Yuan right now."
"I'd better send someone to look for him." Suddenly, the honest man Huang Chen spoke. He met the eyes of several people and sighed: "This is the most suitable."
Everyone was silent, understanding what he meant.
Huang Chen immediately ordered people to look for Peng Yuan. After a while, the Tuyuan disciples returned:
"Jian Hou, Peng Sili is not in prison. According to the gatekeeper, Peng Sili left in a hurry about a stick of incense ago, saying he was going to do some business, and now he has disappeared."
After the words fell, everyone fell silent.
Bai Chuan froze on the spot as if struck by lightning. He still didn't believe it, but he couldn't explain why Peng Yuan happened to escape. The witnesses and physical evidence are all there, and the truth is ready to come out.
"So, Peng Yuan may have colluded with the demon clan to assassinate the genius of our prison. With his authority, he is indeed capable of forging warrants. As for escaping... it may be that he learned of the assassination death through some secret method and realized that he might be exposed So I ran away." Li Guofeng said solemnly.
"I...I'm going to catch him and bring him back!" Bai Chuan could not contain the coldness around his body. The temperature in the meeting hall dropped, and his voice was cold and emotionless.
Li Guofeng glanced at him and said, "Shuiyuan will not be involved in this matter."
Baichuan was stunned, then smiled bitterly. Some words were not stated clearly, but he understood them all. If Peng Yuan is the murderer, then Bai Chuan is also suspected behind him.
The remaining people looked at each other, raised their hands at the same time, and took out the astrolabe for divination.
However, the divination results were completely different. The four astrolabe gave different directions.
"I was disturbed. It seems that the level involved in this matter is not low." Li Guofeng looked ugly.
The divine capital is huge and has a population of millions. If Peng Yuan had been prepared, as long as he hid in time, it would be difficult to find traces in a short time without the help of magic.
"Inform the Yamen. We have too few manpower. It won't be of much use if we release them all. We can only rely on the government to conduct searches and arrest them after finding clues." Fang Liuhuo was irritated and suggested helplessly.
That's all it can do... Li Guofeng sighed. However, the government lacks a deterrent effect on practitioners, and many things involving magic are difficult to solve using ordinary investigative methods.
This is also the reason why the government office has not found out the last unsolved case in the alley.
And the importance of this matter is not enough to present it to the God Emperor and cause a big battle.
The final result may be that the suspect disappears, cannot be completely identified, and becomes an unsolved case.
This is obviously not what Xu Xiurong wants to see. And just when a few people were at their wits' end, suddenly, a voice that they had ignored from beginning to end slowly sounded:
"Actually, you might as well wait a moment, maybe there will be a turn for the better."
The speaker was Ji Ping'an. He stood quietly beside the bell with a calm expression. As a person involved, he was not angry or anxious. Instead, he gave people the feeling that... he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand.
Looking at each other with different expressions, Li Guofeng frowned: "What do you mean?"
Ji Ping'an said calmly: "The sun is too dazzling today, why not sit in the hall and drink tea to relieve the anger. Maybe Peng Sili will come back later."
This was probably because the words were so outrageous that several of the wardens were unable to react for a moment.
Fang Liuhuo smacked his lips and said, "You kid won't have your head broken by an assassin, right? Everyone is gone, how can you come back on your own?"
Li Guofeng and Huang Chen shook their heads, finding it too unbelievable.
Only Xu Xiurong's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something and felt unbelievable.
At this moment, there was a noise outside the hospital. Ji Ping'an turned around with a smile and said, "Here he comes."
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure was thrown in through the courtyard wall like a torn sack, hitting the ground and raising smoke and dust.
A veiled young girl with long black hair followed closely behind her. She landed lightly and said proudly, "Ji Ping'an, I've captured him for you. This saint doesn't owe you anything this time."
quiet.
Everyone was shocked at first, and then looked at the dying, bloody gourd-like figure on the ground.
"Peng Yuan!"
