Chen Chu.
"Ruan Ruan! Get up! Something happened! Something happened!"
Ruan Xianbei was drowsily woken up by Cheng Suisui's words. Despite her constant urging, he could only wash up in a hurry and tidy up briefly before being pulled out of the door and headed to the main courtyard of Wutaifeng. Deyuan walked away.
"I'm so sleepy! Yesterday, I was punished by my senior brother to copy the house rules a hundred times. I didn't even finish copying them until I went to sleep! Who knows why our ancestors set so many rules for the house? But I was woken up not long after I slept. , Master, senior brothers and seniors from other sects are all at Dingdeyuan. Why do you think people from the Demon Sect are so brave?" Cheng Suisui complained as he pulled her away.
"Demon sect? What demon sect? Don't you need a post to go up the mountain? How can the demon sect still kill people on the mountain when there are experts here?" Ruan Xianbei asked, thinking that she and Elder Wang were both here, and her brother also asked her not to mess around. Come on, there is no way she doesn't know about the arrival of other people from the Demon Cult.
"Hey, which other demon sect is there? It's that demon sect! I can't say for sure. Maybe the people who come here have very high cultivation levels, right? But I don't know the specific situation. Senior brother just wants me to call you, no. I know what I want from you. Come on, come on, don't keep them waiting!" Cheng Suisui herself couldn't explain clearly. She spoke a lot at a very fast speed. In short, the situation was urgent and she was just an errand boy. !
Ruan Xianbei hummed, and secretly opened a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve with her other hand. A small, white, glowing bug flew out from it. The bug first circled her fingertips for a while, then pricked her fingertips. After sucking a drop of blood, he flew out of his sleeves and flew down the mountain.
The two rushed to the main hall of Dingde Courtyard. The first thing Ruan Xianbei saw was Shen Xuan. There were also several seniors he had seen standing inside during the opening ceremony yesterday, including Master Mu Huaxiao, Taoist Priest Hongzhen, City Master Xin, and He. He is the Taoist Priest, Abbot Leyin, and Head Xu of the Qianshan Sect.
There was a person lying on a stretcher in the middle of the front hall. Mrs. Qingjun from Wanhua Valley was half-kneeling next to her and shaking her head at everyone. It was obvious that she was helpless.
The two people with the lowest seniority didn't know why they were called here on this occasion. Fang Qiya saw them staying at the door and secretly waved for them to come in quickly. After the two entered the door, they found a corner to stand, trying to hide their presence. feel.
Especially Ruan Xianbei, she didn't know why she felt uncomfortable all over after entering this door, and there was always a feeling that someone was watching her. She shrank back and the feeling disappeared again, and she scanned She looked around but found nothing, but the sticky eyes on her made her very annoyed.
"Guan Qiao has many traces of fighting left on his body. There are palm prints on his chest and back. Judging from the bruises on his back, it seems that he has fallen from a high place. There is mud on the soles of his shoes. However, it has not rained in the past few days. It's okay. From this aspect, we can infer where he went yesterday, and the fatal wound was a knife wound on the heart, and the knife was his own. It is obvious that the opponent's strength is superior to him." Mrs. Qingjun pointed out these parts to him as she spoke. You see, "The murderer didn't move after killing him, which shows that he didn't care about being discovered at all. He was very bold. If he was a member of the Demon Cult, he would probably look for the next target and attack again."
"These despicable people from the Demon Sect!" Master Xu, his eyes red with grief and anger, slapped the table and angrily said, "Qiao'er is a kind and honest man who never makes grudges with others. If I had known that he would not know why in the martial arts meeting that he was most looking forward to. If someone kills me, I will never let him come...I, Xu Kaicheng, will definitely pay for the blood debt of the Demon Sect!"
Is it Guanqiao from Qianshan Sect? The one who competed with Lei Shi yesterday? Ruan Xianbei glanced at Cheng Suisui, and the two made eye contact and got a positive answer.
Ruan Xianbei took a look and felt a little pity. After watching yesterday's competition, he felt that he was quite aboveboard, especially compared to that Lei. Although his cultivation was a little weak, he could become a great player in time.
If Ruan Yan knew that their majestic demon sect saint actually admired others' aboveboardness, he would definitely laugh to death.
"Don't worry, Master Xu. This incident happened in Cangshan. I, Cangshan, will definitely be responsible for investigating to the end! I have immediately asked people to block the entrance. The disciples guarding the mountain came to report that no one came down the mountain from last night to early this morning. The murderer should still be there." Lurking in the mountains." Taoist Priest Yuan Zhen said righteously.
"We can't necessarily conclude that it was someone from the Demon Sect who did it." Shen Xuan said.
The room was silent for a few seconds. This was a guess that no one wanted to think about in this direction.
If there is evidence pointing to the Demonic Cult, then I believe that the alliance will only be strong if it is united to the outside world. Why hurt the harmony of our own people?
This is also the reason why the Demon Cult has been involved in countless conflicts in the world in recent years, but few people have attacked its members.
But this time it happened in the Martial Arts Association. An outstanding disciple who had been cultivated by a small sect with great difficulty died. How could he let it go?
"Amitabha. Rampant, really rampant!" Master Leyin of Dalueyin Temple was meditating next to Guanqiao's body, twisting the beads in his hand and chanting something.
"What else is there to say?! Chest and back! What Qiao'er suffered was the evil palm of the Demon Sect! Who else could it be besides the Demon Sect! Could it be you?" Headmaster Xu was only thinking about catching the murderer. His disciple paid for it with his life, and immediately responded to Shen Xuan's words as if he was covering up the murderer and the demon sect.
Ruan Xianbei was complaining next to him, "What a black evil palm, it's so unpleasant to hear. Their move is clearly called psychic palm. One palm gives birth to two palms and three palms hurt you to see the King of Hell. This group of righteous people just randomly named them after bruises." Enough is enough. However, only a very small number of people can practice to the third palm. Seeing that the first palm on Guanqiao's chest is heavier, and the scar on the second palm on the back is shallower, if it was not intentional, the murderer is not very powerful.
Shen Xuan's anger towards Master Xu was transferred to him and he was not angry. He said in a deep voice: "I just believe that you should not let any bad person go, and don't blame any good person. The martial arts society is very strict, and it is difficult for people in the demon sect to do so. Sneaking in at this time. If—if the murderer deliberately led us to think in this direction, let him succeed. Senior Brother Guan is smart and kind. If he were alive, he should think the same as the younger generation."
"Ahem... what Senior Nephew Shen said makes sense. Master Xu should not be blinded by anger and miss the real murderer. I feel that the martial arts meeting should still proceed normally. The murderer is so conceited. Only by letting him relax his vigilance can he reveal his flaws. This can also be used This is an opportunity to observe whether the murderer has other accomplices." Master Yueyin, who had been chanting sutras, stopped and said. Yueyin spoke very slowly, and his voice was deep and ethereal, which had a calming effect on people.
After hearing these words, the blood in Mr. Xu's eyes also receded a bit. yes! How could he let his disciple die unjustly!
"That's what Master Yueyin said." Headmaster Xu nodded, and everyone else followed suit.
"Master, I brought this just in case. Here is the list of disciples from various sects staying on the mountain." Fang Qiya, who was standing next to Cheng Suisui and others, took a book and handed it over.
The book records that lone knights without sects all live at the foot of the mountain. Seven of the fourteen sects, including Cangshan, live on the mountain, namely Lingxiao Villa, Mahayana Temple, Wuleimen, Wanhua Valley, and Qianshan Sect. and Bliss Luo.
"In this way, the scope is reduced by half." Yuan Zhen said, "Shen Xuan, I will leave this matter to you and arrange the manpower. However, the martial arts meeting will end at noon tomorrow. If the murderer is not found by then, We can't keep them here, and you don't have much time left."
"Master, this disciple needs to bring one more person with him." Shen Xuan looked at Ruan Xianbei and said.
"Why?" Yuan Zhen asked.
"Miss Ruan seemed to have seen the fight last night and should be able to identify the murderer." Shen Xuan said slowly.
"Girl, have you seen this?" Master Xu realized that there were still two people standing in the corner. He walked quickly towards Ruan Xianbei, eager for an answer.
Ruan Xianbei, whose name was called, suddenly felt that all eyes were focused on him. He cursed Shen Xuan in his heart for being a bitch. He lowered his head and pretended to be submissive and said to the seniors: "Junior...Junior did see someone fighting, but The distance was too far, and when I immediately called Senior Brother Shen to come and see, the person had already disappeared, just for a moment."
"In this case, the girl is the only witness, so we can only trouble the girl." Yuan Zhen said with a cupped hand.
Headmaster Xu said in a low voice: "I want to go too."
"That's fine, with Master Xu here, don't be impulsive." Yuan Zhen glanced at Shen Xuan, his secret meaning was very clear, if you look away, something will happen again.
What else could Ruan Xianbei say? It happened that she herself wanted to know who was pretending to be Tiantian to blame the Demon Cult, so she had to hand over her hand and said: "This junior has a duty."
"There's still an hour before today's competition starts, so hurry up and go."
In this way, this emergency meeting ended temporarily.
The others were ready according to the arrangements of the martial arts association. Fang Qiya was conducting control and observation at the competition site. Cheng Suisui went to collect information from the crowd to see if anyone had any strange behavior or strange things last night. Shen Xuan took Ruan Xianbei and others. Boss Xu went to the scene to see if the murderer had left any clues. 
…
The little white bug sent out by Ruan Xianbei flew to the bottom of the mountain. Yun Zhiyuncai from another inn caught the little white bug and quickly called Elder Wang.
"This is it?" Elder Wang squinted at the ant-sized bug in Yun Zhi's hand. It was so white that it was almost invisible in the sunlight.
"This is the novice used by the saint to communicate."
Yun Zhi took out a piece of paper, with small words written in each grid on the paper. Xiao Bai flew up and swayed and stopped in a grid, and then stopped in another grid. After repeating it several times, he came up with a sentence.
"Someone has been killed. Please count the number of people in the mosque immediately."
Elder Wang frowned and asked, "What does this mean? What is the connection between someone's murder and our Islam?"
Yun Zhi was confused at first, then suddenly remembered that the Holy Lady had always said that if their religion changed its name, it should be called the Blame-Backing Cult. With a flash of inspiration, she understood and said: "The Saint's meaning should be that someone was murdered and targeted our people, and told us to go back first. Check the situation."
After listening to the conversation between the two, Yun Cai said: "But since the last incident when the saint was injured, the leader ordered that everyone who was outside be recalled to come back to practice and not to leave the church. This order was not lifted until we came out."
"That's right...it seems that the saint has been left on the mountain. Ah Cai, you and Elder Wang go back first. I'll wait here to pick up the saint."
"Aren't you going together?" Yun Cai asked.
"It's too conspicuous to go together at this time, and the saint is still on the mountain. Don't say more. Before the news comes out, you go back first. I'll see if there is a chance to go up the mountain to join the saint."
Yuncai and Elder Wang nodded and prepared to pack up and leave.
Before leaving the house, Elder Wang suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, what should I do with this little insect?"
"I let it go and it will go back to find the saint." Yun Zhi said, nodding the little insect's head and telling it to go back.
"When did the saint raise this?" Lao Wang looked at the little white insect flying out of the window and asked them.
Although Yuncai didn't know why he asked this, he still replied: "After that time... Elder Jin gave it to the saint."
"Old Jin?! Don't give the old poisonous stuff to the saint, don't you guys stop me?" Elder Wang thought to himself. This old guy has been keeping quiet all day long, but he didn't think of giving it secretly. attentive!
Yun Zhi smiled and said: "How dare we interfere with the saint's affairs? Let's go quickly, Elder Wang."
The two of them knew that since the saint changed her temperament, these elders were secretly fighting to please the saint, and they both found it funny. Elder Jin not only gave this, but also other things.
Now Elder Wang feels that except for this mouth, he has some advantages, and the others are not as good as it! Oops Oops! His position as the first elder may not be guaranteed, and he is even more eager to go back and show off his head to Old Man Jin.
