Lin Qiaoyue understood that she couldn't leave.
Xie Wuchen and his sister Xie Shuiyun were both a little confused.
In order to find out the cause of the noise, the three of them headed towards the place where the fire was lit.
When they arrived at the place, they discovered that three dead bodies were found behind a rockery in the Xie family residence.
For a big family like the Xie family, it was not a big deal for three dead bodies to appear in the house.
To be able to alarm the entire Xie family and make such a noise, it means that these three dead bodies must have a lot of background.
Things were just as Lin Qiaoyue guessed. The three corpses that appeared in the Xie family's house did have a lot of background.
Because these three dead bodies were all wearing the same purple gown.
The chest of the gown outlines a steep mountain pattern with white silver threads.
This pattern is a unique symbol of the Yue family in the east of the city.
The Yue family and Xie family in the east of the city are both big and famous families in the city.
The bodies of the Yue family were found in the Xie family. Naturally, this matter could not be covered up quietly.
After all, these families have never stopped fighting openly and secretly.
Now that the dead body of the Yue family has been found in the Xie family, I am afraid that the news of this matter has been reported to the master's family through the spy planted in the Xie family.
The most bizarre thing was that Lin Qiaoyue was shocked when she saw the dead body.
It's not that this dead body is scary, it's just that this dead body reminds her of a person.
During the day, when Lin Qiaoyue met the white-bearded old man, she once encountered a young man with an evil aura about him and passed her by.
Although they only met once, Lin Qiaoyue noticed the horror in this person because of her special talent.
This person is very strong. If he participates in this competition, I'm afraid no one will be his opponent.
Another thing that was most terrifying was the evil aura on this person, which sent a chill down Lin Qiaoyue's back and made her feel as if this person was born from the darkness.
All the light in the world can never drive away the evil in him.
He is like a synonym for darkness, he is like darkness.
With such an unfathomable opponent, Lin Qiaoyue knew that this person's purpose in appearing in the Golden Cloud Realm was by no means simple.
The reason why Lin Qiaoyue thought of this person was because the death conditions of the three corpses that appeared in the Xie family's house were exactly the same as what the white-bearded old man said.
There was only a layer of dry black skin left on his body, tightly wrapped around his bones, and all the blood and essence in his body had been completely sucked dry.
How could such a death situation not frighten Lin Qiaoyue?
Could it be that that young man has been following me?
Is this the first guess Lin Qiaoyue made when she saw the three dead bodies?
However, when people from the Yue family came to the Xie family aggressively, Lin Qiaoyue began to doubt her first guess.
The world is prosperous, and everyone is here for profit.
The world is full of hustle and bustle, all for the benefit of others.
This is the only true insight that his master, Tao Ziming, gained after traveling around the world for who knows how many years and finally retreating to the mountains and forests.
Whether it’s a human, a demon, a ghost…
As long as they have interests, they can do things that go against common sense and go beyond the rules.
In the face of interests, morality is just a noun.
"Xie Wuchen, where's your father? Call him out. I'm going to ask him today why three guards from my in-law's family died in your Xie family's house. He must tell me about this matter. An explanation!”
The visitor is none other than the head of the Yue family: Yue Hengshan.
Yue Hengshan is strong and tall.
The sound was like thunder, and as soon as it came out, it calmed everyone present.
Lin Qiaoyue guessed that the other party's state was probably the state of perfect destiny, or close to the supreme state.
If you want to break through to the realm of supremacy, you probably still have one step to go.
No wonder he dared to run to Xie's house so arrogantly.
According to Lin Qiaoyue's observation, among all the Xie family present, the one with the highest level is Xie Wuchen, the eldest son of the Xie family.
It seems that he will soon break through to the middle level of Destiny Realm and become the upper middle level of Destiny Realm.
At his age, it is easy to break through the realm of perfect destiny.
If you work harder in the future, you might be able to reach the supreme realm. Such a young disciple has an unlimited future.
If ordinary people dared to behave like this in the Xie family, they might have been beaten to death with sticks.
But despite the other party's strong cultivation, everyone present did not dare to refute.
Xie Wuchen, on the other hand, had a calm face. He looked at Yue Hengshan and smiled faintly: "The head of the Yue family is really grand. Although it is rude to come uninvited, he still belongs to the seniors anyway.
Do you really want to come to my Xie family and vent your anger on us juniors? If it spreads, won't it mean that people will laugh at it? "
Yue Hengshan smiled instead of being angry, his eyes were like two thunderbolts, and he suddenly shot at Xie Wuchen: "Who did I think it was, it turned out to be Wuchen's nephew, I haven't seen him for a few days, and he seems to be more handsome.
Call your father out. He must give me an explanation for today's matter. "
At this moment, deep in the Xie Family Courtyard, a figure was flying from mid-air.
"Hahahaha, Yue Hengshan, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you seem to be getting more and more shameless. Coming here uninvited? Do you really like to join in the fun so much?"
A middle-aged man in a white shirt slowly landed in front of Xie Wuchen.
The man in the white shirt stood with his hands behind his back, like a tall city wall, blocking the way of all the young descendants of the Xie family.
"Xie Wugou, no matter what happened today, you have to give me an explanation. Otherwise, don't blame me, Yue Hengshan, for turning his back on me." Yue Hengshan squinted his eyes and looked at Xie Wugou, the head of the Xie family.
At this time, in front of the Yue family and the Xie family, we must investigate this matter thoroughly at all costs.
After all, it is related to the reputation of the two families. Naturally, this kind of matter cannot be turned into a big deal or a trivial matter.
Xie Wugou nodded: "Brother Yue, what are you talking about? Am I, Xie Wugou, the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between public and private matters? This matter is related to the reputation of my Xie family, so we must investigate it thoroughly."
"Hmph, you'd better keep your word. In three days, I will come back to find the murderer. If you can't hand over the murderer by then, don't blame me for turning against him."
It is said that over the years, the battles between several major families and sects have been suppressed.
On the surface, the territory of Jinxia is peaceful.
But as the old saying goes, if you don’t perish in silence, you will explode in silence.
After accumulating for so long, it has been on the verge of splitting.
The reason why the appearance of peace has not been broken is just that there is one less fuse.
Something strange happened today.
It seemed like someone with ulterior motives was doing it in secret.
In addition to Lin Qiaoyue, those who had this idea also included Xie Wugou, the head of the Xie family, and Xie Wuchen, the eldest son of the Xie family.
Xie Wugu sent everyone away and looked at the three dead bodies repeatedly, his brows furrowed.
"It's the same way of death as the dead bodies found in the suburbs. It seems that the murderer has entered the city." Xie Wugou said, turning his eyes to Lin Qiaoyue, "Who is this?"
"Dad, he is the savior I often tell you. If it weren't for him, my daughter, I might never see you again." Xie Shuiyun introduced Lin Qiaoyue's identity to Xie Wugou with a smile. .
Xie Wugou nodded, with a smile on his face: "It turns out that he is Xiaoyun's savior. I thank you here first. I don't know when this young master entered the city, and why he entered the city this time. Coming?"
Before Lin Qiaoyue could answer, Xie Wuchen stood beside him and said, "Dad, do you doubt Mr. Lin? I can guarantee you that Mr. Lin will never be this kind of person."
As he said this, he thought to himself: The person who knows this song is a kind-hearted girl. I believe that this girl’s junior brother must also be a kind person.
Xie Shuiyun on the side also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Dad, Mr. Lin must not be a bad person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have saved your daughter that night, right?"
Xie Wugou looked at the two brothers and sisters standing beside Lin Qiaoyue, smiled, and sighed: "You guys, why are you so anxious? Aren't you afraid of Mr. Lin's jokes?
I'm just asking casually. Mr. Lin, if you don't mind, can you talk to me alone? I have a few questions and would like to ask Mr. Lin’s opinion! "
Xie Wugou glanced at the two brothers and sisters, his eyes filled with the worried look of his old father.
Lin Qiaoyue nodded: "The head of the Xie family has said so, so of course I can't refuse."
Xie Wugou nodded: "Please!"
After saying that, he led Lin Qiaoyue to a side room.
As soon as he sat down, Xie Wugou lowered his voice and said, "Since you saved my daughter in Lingzhou City, you can't be the murderer of this murder."
Lin Qiaoyue said calmly: "Oh, what can Mr. Xie say?"
Xie Wugou shook his head: "To be honest, those three corpses died in a very special way. A month ago, such a case occurred in Jinxia territory.
Lingzhou City is thousands of miles away from the Golden Cloud Realm. Unless Mr. Lin knows how to use the legendary clone technique, it is absolutely impossible to appear in two places at the same time.
Previously, the frequency of corpses appearing in Jinxia was still weak and did not attract everyone's attention.
But about half a month ago, the number of dead corpses began to increase. As more and more corpses with the same death state appeared, everyone realized that something was wrong.
If the place where the incident happened was not far away from several major families, this matter should have been taken seriously long ago.
Now that the case has appeared in the territory of several major families, it seems that the mastermind behind this matter can no longer hold back.
I guess that he must have some ulterior and very evil plan.
This is definitely a huge conspiracy!
It seems that I have no choice but to take action this time. In order to protect the Xie family, I must pull out the black hand. "
Lin Qiaoyue nodded: "I came all the way from Lingzhou City, but I didn't see any similar cases along the way.
Based on my guess, this incident probably only happened in Jinxia territory.
What does Patriarch Xie think his purpose is?
Is it just to cause commotion among several big families? I don’t think this is his real purpose. "
Xie Wugou nodded, with a hint of approval in his eyes: "Yes, Mr. Lin's guess coincides with my guess.
I guess they must have a huge conspiracy, but no clues have been found yet.
But I believe that the more he does, the more mistakes he will make, and he will definitely show his flaws. "
In this murder case, Lin Qiaoyue always believed that the real murderer had to start with the young man she met by chance.
It's a pity that after a quick goodbye, Lin Qiaoyue wanted to continue tracking, but the white-haired old man gave up his idea.
While the two were talking, they heard a distant voice coming from outside the hospital.
"You are a guest in the world of mortals, why are you so troubled?
The way of heaven cannot be proved, and the way of immortality cannot be relied upon!
Cut off three thousand worries, and you won’t see the true immortal in front of you. "
This voice was very familiar to Lin Qiaoyue. Isn't it the same verse that the white-haired old Taoist hummed when he first met him that day?
Hearing this nonsensical limerick, Xie Wugou on the side suddenly showed a hint of joy: "My best friend is here, he is a master!"
As he spoke, the door to the wing was pushed open.
A group of young descendants of the Xie family outside the hospital looked at the white-haired old man respectfully.
The old Taoist slowly walked into the side room, waved the whisk in his hand, and the door closed automatically: "Thank you, Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. I hope you are well!"
Xie Wugou stood up quickly and saluted the white-haired old man: "Senior Li, you must have something important to come here today! By the way, Senior Li, let me introduce you."
However, his words were quickly interrupted by the old man: "Hey, no need, I already know this young lady... young master."
"Ah? I didn't expect Mr. Lin to know Senior. What a surprise. Senior Li, please take a seat."
Xie Wugou gave up his seat with a smile. The white-haired old man smiled slightly and sat opposite Lin Qiaoyue: "Young young man, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. How was it? Did you enjoy your stay at Xie's house?"
The old white-haired Taoist said with a smile: "The Xie family has countless young talents. Do you want me to help you find someone to accompany you for the rest of your life?
Although Xiaoyun is a bit naughty, she has a clear heart and wisdom and will definitely be a virtuous wife in the future.
I think it’s not like I can’t get to know you.
Wu Chen, a junior, is not very outstanding, but he is kind-hearted and his qualifications are a bit lacking. But as long as he is willing to work hard, his future will be limitless! How about it, which one do you like? "
Lin Qiaoyue reached out and held her forehead.
This old guy is kidding himself.
It makes me look like a pervert, as if both men and women are the same.
Are you that kind of person?
Moreover, the old man had just called himself little girl. Although he hadn't finished speaking, it was already obvious that he knew her gender.
As expected, Xie Wugou on the side had a smile on his face at first.
As a result, the more I listened to it, the weirder it became.
Gradually, when he saw Lin Qiaoyue's expression, he began to feel a little uncomfortable...
