Everyone clasped their fists and said yes.
Although Yan Xu was reprimanded, his heart was so happy that he wanted to dance, especially loudly.
"I have two things to do today. First, where did the purple jade golden sunflower in the treasure house go?" Mu Qingyan turned around.
You Guanyue hurriedly said: "My subordinates have carefully searched all the warehouses in the past two days, and indeed there is no such thing."
"Has any of you seen this thing?" Mu Qingyan asked again.
The others shook their heads, but only Hu Fengge stepped forward and said, "I saw Nie Hengcheng playing with this treasure when I was young, and it was later said that it was stolen."
Yan Xu thoughtfully said: "Is the leader looking for this thing? This old man knows something about it - it was indeed stolen back then. It is said that it was the hands of Beichen Six Sect, but it was returned later. I don't know what happened. What the hell are you doing? Nie Hengcheng killed more than a dozen leaders who were guarding the treasure house for this reason. Unexpectedly, not long after, it was stolen again."
"Ah. Who is so arrogant? Stealing once is not enough, and dares to steal a second time?" Shangguan Haonan said.
Yan Xu twirled his sparse beard: "I don't know who stole it the first time, but it was Lu Chengnan who stole the treasure the second time."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
"Why is that?" Hu Fengge was particularly surprised, "Brother Lu is very loyal to Nie Hengcheng."
"I don't know this either." Yan Xu shook his head. "I only know that Nie Hengcheng was furious when he found out and severely injured Lu Chengnan. I was also present at the time. In my opinion, Nie Hengcheng's blow was a fatal blow. .”
"This is happening? It's really strange." Hu Fengge was surprised, "Nie Hengcheng is ruthless outside, but he loves his own children very much. He still protects Chen Shu in every possible way, not to mention that Fourth Brother Lu is him The most respected among the four major disciples. I often heard from the leaders in Tiangang Disha Camp that the one who will inherit Nie Hengcheng’s mantle in the future will definitely be Lu Chengnan.”
Mu Qingyan asked: "What happened next? Where did Lu Chengnan go?"
"Nie Hengcheng was a little weird that night. His expression was agitated and frantic. If I hadn't known that it was impossible, I would have thought that he had gone crazy while practicing." Yan Xu said, "Han Yisu also saw that something was wrong with his master. He tried his best to stop Nie Hengcheng and screamed Lu Chengnan ran quickly - so Lu Chengnan ran away. He has not been seen since, and I don’t know where he went.”
Mu Qingyan nodded, "So, Ziyu Jinkui disappeared together with Lu Chengnan." He had many questions in his mind, so he habitually pointed his fingers on the table.
"Let's put this aside for now and let's talk about the second thing." He added, "A few months ago, the whole family of Changjia Fort in Wu'an was massacred. Who did this?"
You Guanyue and Shangguan Haonan looked at each other, while Yan Xu and Yu Huiyin looked confused.
Hu Fengge thought for a moment and then stepped forward and said, "I heard some vague rumors about this matter. It should be Nie Zhe's doing."
"Okay, why did fifth brother go to destroy all the Chang family members?" Yu Huiyin asked curiously.
"I don't know either." Hu Fengge looked solemn, "Nie Zhe was jealous of talents and could not keep talented people in his hands. He despised me as a woman, and was willing to discuss many things with me. But I know that he has been secretly hiding There are other helpers. Not to mention the distant ones, just in the past few months, whether it was the massacre of Changjia Fort or the sneak attack on the six Beichen sects along the way, I only found out after the fact."
"Afterwards, I asked the brothers who participated in the Changjiabao operation, and they were very surprised. You must know that Changjiabao is extremely secretive. Even the fourth brother Lu couldn't decipher Changjiabao's hiding formation, but who knew that it was Nie? Zhe found it easily - the brothers said that on the night of the operation, someone had marked the route in advance, so they could reach Changjiabao smoothly."
What Mu Qingyan said was somewhat unexpected.
He originally thought that it was Nie Zhe who destroyed the Chang Family Fort, and that if Nie Zhe and his men were all killed, it would be considered as revenge for the Chang family. Now from what Hu Fengge said, there was actually another culprit.
"It seems that we have to ask Nie Zhe about this matter." Mu Qingyan decided neatly, "Nie Zhe's injury worsened a few days ago and he is now unable to move. Let's go over and have a look."
Everyone stood up at the same time, followed Mu Qingyan, and turned to a house in the side hall that was filled with the smell of bitter soup.
The guard at the door held his fists solemnly and opened the door for Mu Qingyan.
The group of people filed into the hospital room, but no one expected that Nie Zhe lying on the hospital bed had become a dead man - the blood stains on his wounds were solidified, his face was livid, his face was distorted, and his body was cold. He had been dead for at least several hours.
"Ah! Fifth brother, fifth brother!" Yu Huiyin rushed forward and shouted, "What's going on! What's going on!"
Several guards at the door were frightened and looked pale. They knelt down and apologized. They said that no one had entered the hospital that day except for the boy delivering food and dressing.
"His heart was shattered by internal force." Mu Qingyan probed Nie Zhe's heart and said, "Someone must have pretended to be a food and medicine delivery person and came in to take his life." He didn't want to let Nie Zhe live at all. , so the guard outside the door was more prepared to prevent someone from coming to rescue him, but ignored that someone came to silence him.
Yan Xu exclaimed: "I wonder which master killed Nie Zhe?"
Shangguan Haonan stepped forward and looked at Nie Zhe's body, shook his head and said: "You may not be a master. Nie Zhe was seriously injured and had almost no resistance. Anyone with ordinary cultivation can take his life."
"Among the boys who delivered meals and changed dressings today, one of them has not returned yet." You Guanyue asked his subordinates before returning to the hospital room, "I think it's more likely to be bad than good."
Yu Huiyin got up from the bedside and said with tears: "Master, I have something I have wanted to say for a long time. Previously, the leader pointed out that your father was poisoned... I don't know whether Mrs. Sun did it, but I don't know. I don’t think Fifth Brother instigated this matter.”
"Fifth brother has said more than once that your father has an indifferent temperament and has no intention of being powerful. However, the fifth brother's power is unstable and he needs a cover like yours. Every time someone from the church questions whether the fifth brother is in the right position, the fifth brother refutes, 'Mu The serious descendants didn't say anything, what's the matter with you?', and used this to pass the blame. It's too late for Fifth Brother to hope that your father will be safe and healthy, so how could he instruct Mrs. Sun to poison him?"
"Oops!" Hu Fengge looked stern, "Ruoshui!"
She jumped back and quickly walked out the door, and the others quickly followed.
However, it was still too late, and Sun Ruoshui also died on the hospital bed - with the same livid complexion, distorted facial features, and cold body.
Shangguan Haonan lost his voice and said, "My heart was broken again."
Mu Qingyan walked over slowly - he was the last one to enter the room.
He said: "Don't worry, everyone. Since someone wants to silence him, he won't just kill Nie Zhe. Nie Zhe's body has been cold for a long time, and Mrs. Sun has naturally been killed long ago."
Yan Xu had no clue, "What on earth is going on? Oh, don't be sad that Mrs. Sun has lost her leader."
Looking at Sun Ruoshui's body, Mu Qingyan's heart did not waver.
He had given up on his biological mother a long time ago.
Weakness, yearning, longing, these emotions that ordinary children should have for their mother, Mu Qingyan had long been buried in that rotten and dilapidated dark room. He didn't have a single bit of that despicable emotion of lying down and licking someone after being mercilessly hurt by a loved one.
As he grew up, the more he learned about Sun Ruoshui's past and character, the only word he could think of was "contempt" for the woman who had given birth to him. After knowing that she poisoned her father, she added the word 'hate'.
The only hateful thing was that in order to prevent his father from being sad, he did not seriously express his attitude towards Sun Ruoshui, but instead caused his father to misunderstand how much he cared about his biological mother, which gave Sun Ruoshui the opportunity to do harm.
Even if no one came to silence him, he had no intention of letting the person who poisoned his father live, and Sun Ruoshui was no exception.
It's just that the death of Nie and Sun cut off all clues, and a layer of light veil was cast on top of the heavy fog.
First of all, if the purple jade golden sunflower is just a useless thing for calming the mind, why is Nie Hengcheng so anxious about it.
Secondly, as the most respected and loyal disciple of Nie Hengcheng, why did Lu Chengnan steal the Purple Jade Golden Sunflower?
Again, who is the person secretly helping Nie Zhe? Well, nine times out of ten, they are from the Beichen Six Sect. But who is it?
Finally, why did Sun Ruoshui poison Mu Zhengming? Now that the two of them have separated, Mu Zhengming will not stand in her way at all, so what reason does she have for committing such a murderous act?
Mu Qingyan stood by the window, taking advantage of the bright sunlight, and glanced at the faces of everyone in the room without moving an expression -
You Guanyue was thinking hard, Shangguan Haonan was scratching his head and head, Yan Xu kept chattering "why why", Hu Fengge closed Sun Ruoshui's eyes with a hint of sadness, Yu Huiyin patted her shoulder and back comfortingly, plus the ones who were not present now Could that wallflower Lu Fengchun...the person who silenced Nie and Sun two be among these people?
Or, someone else.
Mu Qingyan frowned, thinking deeply.
He turned around and said casually, "Zhaozhao, do you think it could be..."
The sound stopped suddenly.
The room was silent, and everyone had different expressions.
Mu Qingyan remained motionless, looking at the empty side.
"Don't be afraid, don't worry, there is always a way."
Someone once promised him this, someone once kissed him tenderly on the face.
After his father passed away, a bright and warm sunshine shone through his life, which was determined to be cold and lonely.
She has a pair of very beautiful eyes. She once said with a smile that her relatives, friends and elders often said that she was the president, and that she resembled the best part of Cai Pingshu's face, especially when she smiled, her big bright eyes were like the rippling spring sun. The lake water is pure and warm.
——Don’t be afraid, don’t worry, there is always a way.
Since you made a promise, why not keep it?
But he was left alone in this blazing abyss.

Chapter 90
Finally, the two little rabbits were caught, and everyone in Beichen rushed back to Jiuli Mountain day and night.
Qi Yunke was eager to master the family rules, Cai Pingchun was eager to master the family methods, and Song Shijun was eager to restore his son's skills. After a little push, Song Sijun, who has the loudest voice, won.
In the medicine house, Song Yuzhi held the ice jade with his hands and quietly crossed his legs to adjust his breathing. Qi Yunke, Cai Pingchun and Song Shijun respectively stretched out their palms and placed them on the top of his head for Baihui. They moved Qi evenly on the three acupuncture points of Tanzhong on his chest and Fengmen on his back.
It is certainly not trivial for the three masters of Beichen to exert force at the same time. This powerful and turbulent internal force is like a huge rolling wave running through Song Yuzhi's body. If this energy rushes straight into Dantian, it can certainly dispel the cold air in the dark world, but Song Yuzhi The Dantian and the meridians of the whole body are inevitably affected at the same time.
Song Yuzhi followed Lei Xiuming's instructions and carefully directed the internal energy of the three elders to his right palm, flowed to his left palm through the ice jade, and then flowed to the Dantian through the Tianxi and Qimen acupoints. In this way, the three internal forces were born. The heat and hotness are eliminated, and the internal energy flowing into the Dantian is integrated, mature and moist.
Song Yuzhi was sweating faintly on his forehead, and his left and right palms were slightly separated by a few inches. The Ten Thousand Years Ice Jade hanging between the two palms made a slight buzzing under the force of the strong internal force.
The cigarettes on the table gradually burned out, and suddenly there was a short and clear sound of jade exploding. Cai Pingchun, who was standing in front of Song Yuzhi, was the first to notice it and softly shouted "Stop" - the three masters put away their clothes at the same time. Jin, return the palm to adjust the breath.
At the same time, several crisp sounds of jade falling to the ground were heard, and the ten thousand-year-old ice jade known as the 'strongest and toughest' had broken into several pieces and fell to the ground.
Song Yuzhi was sweating profusely, his clothes were soaked, and his whole body was shaking.
Qi Yunke said in a deep voice: "Don't rest when you are depressed. Quickly exercise and adjust your breath. Use the exercises in the first three chapters of the 'Marrow Cleansing Sutra' to heal yourself and regulate the meridians and Dantian."
In fact, at this moment, Song Yuzhi was exhausted and almost exhausted. However, he has been tenacious since he was a child. After hearing this, he immediately gritted his teeth and practiced martial arts.
Song Shijun looked at the broken ice jade on the ground, "It seems that the demon sect thief is quite sincere. This piece of ice jade is indeed rare in the world."
Qi Yunke felt relieved when he saw that although Song Yuzhi's face was pale, the gray aura that had lingered for months between his brows had faded. While Song Shijun was guarding the stall of Yaolu and refused to leave, he quickly grabbed Cai Pingchun and interrogated the unscrupulous disciple Cai Zhao.
Cai Zhao had already eaten Ning Xiaofeng's meal. At this moment, in front of his father and master, he told everything about this trip to the Demon Cult, excluding the private details between the two and the secrets on the snowy ridge. , almost telling the whole story.
Cai Zhao rarely spoke so many truths at once in his life.
"So, you obtained the Snowscale Dragon Beast's saliva with the help of that boy?"
"Roughly the same."
"You went after the Demon Cult to repay his kindness of saving you?"
"Yes, but it didn't help much."
"How does he treat you?"
"……very good."
"I wonder if this kid has any other plans?"
"It has nothing to do with me whether he does or not. Anyway, I won't meet him in private in the future."
Cai Pingchun and Ning Xiaofeng looked at each other and noticed the bitterness and sadness in their daughter's tone, and they could not let go of the scolding lingering on their tongues. On the contrary, Qi Yunke, who had been the most anxious before, sat quietly aside after listening to Cai Zhao's words, looking at an unknown place on the ground, slightly lost in thought. Ning Xiaofeng called him several times before he came back to his senses.
"Come here, Xiao Zhaoer." Qi Yunke pointed at the little Taozi in front of him.
Cai Zhao went over and sat down honestly.
