"There are probably about a dozen of them, and they all do everything. Except for a few who are sent to work in the mines, the others are all in the Xiao family compound. Back then, Master Yong'an's mother died of dystocia when giving birth to him. , this became the master's eternal pain. During that time, he took in many helpless orphans. Although he later stopped doing so after he came out of his grief, there were still a lot of them."
Hearing this, Ye Qingcheng stopped, stared into Xue Xi's eyes and said, "Based on what you just said, can you guess what I'm going to ask now?"
This is a small test for Xue Xi by Ye Qingcheng. If his inference ability is as good as Ye Qingcheng expected, he should be able to guess what Ye Qingcheng is going to say.
Xue Xi stopped and thought about Ye Qingcheng's thoughts and what he just said, and then replied: "Ye Shijun means that there may be other spies among the adopted children back then?"
Ye Qingcheng was very satisfied with his answer, which made him show admiration again, so he continued to take steps forward. It can be said that Xue Xi's answer just now made him sit firmly and was arranged by Ye Qingcheng to enter the Qingmu Sect. This incident made his fate no longer as ordinary as before.
Xue Xi quickly stepped forward and walked in front of Ye Qingcheng. He wanted to take Ye Qingcheng to their residence. Ye Qingcheng didn't know the way. There happened to be no other servants nearby, so Ye Qingcheng didn't need to worry about being exposed. Xue Xi I know that there are no servants here, and there will only be a basin for cleaning occasionally, but does Ye Qingcheng dare to show up because he knows that there is no one here? Xue Xi is a little confused. Can Xunlongmen disciples without spiritual thoughts also be able to detect the existence of others?
And he also thought about his answer again, and he had to say that it was indeed very possible. The child Yongan had been frail and sick since he was a child. Maybe they started poisoning from then on, but they didn't use blood. Nematodes are just deadly poison.
After all, these collateral clan members were in the Xiao family from the beginning. If Yong'an's mother had not died, she would have given birth to other children, so there was no chance that these collateral clan members would stand upright, but after all Yong'an's mother is dead, and Xiao Shuishui is unwilling to marry again. As long as Yong'an is eliminated, the Xiao family will belong to them sooner or later.
Among the children that Xiao Pianshui took in back then, now that he thinks about it, there are indeed a few whose appearances are not very reasonable. As for the collateral clan members, he also has a few suspects.
The two did not continue talking after that, and both walked in silence. This was Ye Qingcheng leaving time for Xue Xi to think. He could see that this person was quite loyal to the Xiao family, so if he wanted to take him away from Xiao As for the family, it is best to let the other party deal with the hidden dangers in the Xiao family, so as not to leave any worries in the future and affect future cultivation. He believed that after the previous discussion, Xue Xi should be able to catch the mastermind in the subsequent investigation. It would be very disappointing if a dignified novice monk could not even do this.
You know, when he was Ye Sanlang, he was not even a disciple of Xunlongmen, but just a mortal. At that time, he could investigate countless cases and escape from them, let alone an entry-level monk. .
Not long after, the two came to a rather large courtyard. This courtyard gave Ye Qingcheng a familiar feeling, because the layout of the entire courtyard was very similar to that of the West Lake Villa. There was even a small pond in the center of the courtyard, but there was no one on it. The broken bridge lacks a unique artistic conception.
Based on his experience, it seems that the residences of ordinary monks in this world of cultivation are all standardized. Except for monks with higher cultivation levels who will build their own unique caves, most of the residences of cultivators follow the same design drawings. To arrange. This kind of drawing should not be a secret. After all, even a mortal family like the Xiao family can build several residences, let alone a real cultivation family. However, although it is the same system, the Xiao family The two residences are really not that good. They are not even the slightest bit worse than the West Lake Villa.
If nothing else, let’s just say that the concentration of vitality in the air in this courtyard is extremely low. However, compared to other places in the outer city, it is still good. It is enough for an entry-level monk like Xue Xi. .
After giving the key to the door to Ye Qingcheng, Xue Xi left quickly. He still had to deal with Lao Gao's problem, for fear that something would happen if he was late. Even if he trusted Xiong Daxiong Er, there was no such thing in the world. Absolutely, he has made up his mind to completely eradicate the Xiao family's internal and external troubles before going to the Qingmu Sect, otherwise it will affect his state of mind in the future.
Looking at the key in his hand, Ye Qingcheng frowned. This residence actually had to use a key to open the door instead of a spiritual mark. It was too crude.
He unlocked the door and walked in. Sure enough, except that it was not the interior style of the West Lake Villa, many of the furnishings in this room were similar to the house he had lived in when he was in the West Lake Villa. Even the room he lived in in Huangyuan, Shushan Outer Gate. The houses we live in are also quite similar.
After walking into the house, he casually threw a mid-level elemental crystal into the formation in the center of the room. At the same time, a spiritual thought was shot into it, and the formation to gather vitality was activated, causing the vitality in the entire room to rise. It rose rapidly and reached a considerable concentration. Although it was far inferior to Xiaoxumi Cave Heaven or Fairy Mountain Realm, at least there was no such discomfort.
As a place where he has to stay for a certain period of time, if his vitality is lacking for a long time, his mood will become very bad.
He was thinking that the Xiao family father and son would come to visit soon, so he did not rush to set up a ban on the house, nor did he impatiently practice the Three Stages of Thunder and Five Elements Technique. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the spot, Thinking about it.
What to think about? Of course, he will focus on fighting methods and specialized moves in the future. Looking back carefully, he has learned quite a lot of moves that can be called magical powers since he entered the world of cultivation.
For example, Huan Chenyu taught him the entry-level five-element attack technique at the beginning, and the thorn entanglement technique. Although he has been using the former until now, and even killed Liu Meng by surprise, that was because he used the immortal energy to perform it. Because of the same Immortal Energy, the effects that high-level spells can exert are only several times that of the Wooden Arrow Technique. The Wooden Arrow Technique can no longer keep up with his current needs.
There was also the thorn entanglement technique, which he had only used in his early days as a novice monk. Speaking of which, it was quite easy for him at the time.
