Chen Yutian was indeed surprised.
He never expected that this case would be related to the Futian Sect.
Although at present, the specific relationship between the suspicious person and the cave machine cannot be determined, but it is inevitable that there will be problems if he is so close to the cave machine.
"If this person is really a member of the Futian Sect, then the deceased Ling Zhanwu with him is naturally the same. Then what is their purpose of going to the Wu Family Manor?"
Chen Yutian frowned slightly and pondered slightly.
"They went to the Wu family manor probably to investigate the cause of Wu Chengtian's death."
On the side, Tang Fengling squinted her eyes slightly, thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Because I remember that Mrs. Wu said that they just asked about Wu Chengtian's whereabouts on the day of his death, and left after getting the answer."
"From this point of view, they should have learned the real murderer from Mrs. Wu's account, and left after achieving the purpose of their trip."
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
"What you said makes sense, but we must consider everything comprehensively, and we cannot let go of any possibility."
Tang Fengling nodded and said, "You are right. Do you have any other reasonable guesses?"
"Not yet." Chen Yutian shook his head and said, "But I always feel that things are not as simple as we think."
"I understand." Tang Fengling nodded and left quietly.
This was the first time she didn't deliberately say angry words to Chen Yutian.
Because she knew that Chen Yutian needed to be quiet at this time. He needs a quiet enough environment to think about those issues.
"Perhaps, we took the wrong direction from the beginning..."
After Tang Fengling left, Chen Yutian, who was sitting alone in the room, raised his head and looked out the window. After being silent for a long time, he spoke.
Then, he was immersed in thought again.
Until Gongsun knocked on his door.
…
…
"Sir, the tattoo that was washed off the wrist of the deceased has basically been restored." Gongsun Fang said to Chen Yutian as soon as he entered the door.
Chen Yutian's eyes flashed suddenly!
Then, Gongsun handed over a piece of white paper.
Chen Yutian took it and took a look, only to see a simple but ferocious snake head drawn on the paper.
The eyes of this snake head are cold and the scales are thick, which makes people fearful at first glance.
With just a few strokes, the snake's head can be outlined so lifelike. It must be said that the person who originally designed this pattern must have been a great talent.
"Is this what they have in their hands?" Chen Yutian glanced at the white paper, looked up at Gongsun and asked.
He did not ask Gongsun how to restore the pattern, because in his opinion, no matter what method was used, it was Gongsun's freedom.
And, that doesn't matter at all.
Gongsun nodded and said: "Yes, I restored everyone's wounds and drew this complete pattern based on the remaining traces of different wounds."
Chen Yutian nodded.
Since the complete pattern is drawn and completed from the remaining scars on the bodies of the four people, it is natural that the tattoos of the four people should be the same.
"However, what I care about more is its pattern."
Gongsun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the painting, with a hint of deep thought in his eyes, and said: "This is the same thing as their jade pendant, a snake."
Yes, both the tattoo pattern and the two jade pendants from the deceased and suspected to be left by the murderer are all in the shape of a snake.
Such a coincidence made Gongsun a little suspicious.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence..." Chen Yutian said slightly nonchalantly.
"But now we have something more important. After thinking about it, I feel that the matter is not as simple as we thought, especially because it may also involve the Futian Sect."
A look of astonishment suddenly flashed across Gongsun's eyes.
"Sir, the case involves the Futian Sect? What is going on?"
After listening, Chen Yutian then remembered that this case involved the Futian Sect, and except for him and Tang Fengling, no one else knew about it, so he sighed and said, "The thing is like this..."
After saying that, Gongsun's expression suddenly changed!
"There is such a thing...Since he met with Shi Dongji in private, he must be connected with the Futian Sect, and Ling Zhanwu...should also be connected with the Futian Sect!" He spoke decisively.
"I think so too!" Chen Yutian nodded.
"It's just that I'm not just suspicious of Ling Zhanwu."
Gongsun's expression suddenly changed, and there was a very obvious look of surprise in his eyes. He looked at Chen Yutian and slowly said: "What you mean is... Even Wu Chengtian and Yue Lingxiao are also suspicious of this." List?"
Chen Yutian nodded and said: "That's right! Since Ling Zhanwu may be a member of the Futian Sect, then Wu Chengtian and Yue Lingxiao, who are old friends, are also very likely."
"Not only that, but the two unknown dead people are also very likely."
"After all, they all have the same tattoos on their wrists!"
Chen Yutian picked up the paper with the snake head tattoo on it and spoke in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Gongsun nodded slightly, glanced at the tattoo pattern, and said, "This is indeed not impossible. If so, we may need to find out what this tattoo means first."
"Not only that, I'm afraid we also need to know about Wu Chengtian's past." Chen Yutian said, "I just don't know how much Mrs. Wu knows about this?"
Gongsun shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly.
"In that case, the result will probably make you very disappointed. I think it is unlikely that this woman will know these things. It is also unlikely that Wu Chengtian will let him know these things."
"I understand." Chen Yutian nodded and suddenly grinned.
"But...how can you know if you don't try?"
Gongsun understood what he meant and nodded with a wry smile.
But at this moment, the bitter smile on Chen Yutian's face suddenly disappeared. He straightened his expression and asked, "Let's not talk about this anymore... Did Uncle Xing and the others gain anything from the notice they posted?"
Hearing this, Gongsun sighed involuntarily.
"Nothing has been harvested so far. The owner of the head does not seem to be from the capital, and no family members have come to claim it."
Chen Yutian also sighed, with a look in his eyes that he had known this for a long time, and said slowly: "It seems that the breakthrough is here. I hope I can gain something from this trip..."
Hearing this, Gongsun's expression also changed slightly.
"I hope so... I will also seize the time to investigate the tattoo pattern... It is a pity that as soon as you return to the capital, the control of Xuantianwei will be returned to His Majesty, otherwise this matter will be a little easier... "
Chen Yutian smiled slightly when he heard this.
As the most elite intelligence network of the Daxuan Dynasty, the right to use Xuantianwei was once again handed over to the emperor Xuan Ye the moment he returned to the capital.
This was also a rule that was set before the tour.
"That's true...but what's the use of talking about it now? After all, they are no longer under our control."
"Who said he wasn't here?"
A voice suddenly came from outside the room, clear and distinctive. The two people in the room were shocked at the same time and looked at the door involuntarily.
"Creak..." The door opened in response.
A familiar figure appeared behind the door, looking at them with a smile.
The expressions of the two people in the room suddenly changed.
Especially Chen Yutian, when he opened the door, he was stunned on the spot, and then a look of joy, mixed with an indescribable excitement, appeared in his eyes!
Yes, the person who came... was Xuan Xi who came back from the palace.
…
…
Xuan Xi's appearance surprised Chen Yutian and Gongsun, but what surprised them most was what she said at the door before coming in.
"Who said he wasn't here?"
The information revealed in these five short words is extremely huge.
Chen Yutian and Gongsun both looked at her suspiciously.
Seeing the two of them like this, Xuan Xi looked slightly unhappy and asked, "Why are you looking at me like this? Is there something wrong with my face?"
They both shook their heads at the same time.
Of course there were no flowers on Xuan Xi's face.
But there are really flowers on her body.
It was only then that Chen Yu discovered that when Xuan Xi came back from the palace this time, he was not wearing ordinary casual clothes, but a pale pink palace dress.
The palace dress is well-tailored, with light pink gauze fabric and slightly dark pink floral fabric decoration, which vividly highlights the girl's cuteness.
Such a attire is enough to show that this time, she did not sneak out of the palace garden secretly.
This can't help but surprise Chen Yutian!
"Your Highness, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Gongsun looked at Xuan Xi walking in from the door, smiled slightly and said.
Xuan Xi smiled mysteriously, glanced at Chen Yutian, and said, "I have some good news to tell you. Guess what it is?"
Hearing this, Gongsun suddenly smiled bitterly.
How to guess this? There are no clues at all. Even if you want to analyze it, it is impossible, right?
But Chen Yutian's expression suddenly changed at this moment!
He glanced at Xuan Xi in disbelief and asked, "Is it true?"
Xuan Xi understood that he had already guessed the good news, so he nodded slightly and said, "Yes, although it is a little different from what you imagined."
With that said, she handed a jade medal for communication to Chen Yutian.
Seeing this jade tablet, Gongsun's complexion also changed.
Obviously, he also guessed what the good news was.
"Is this...impossible?"
Xuan Xi shook his head slightly and said: "It is indeed impossible. This is just one of the teams, with only about a dozen people. But the emperor also said that from now on, they only need to obey your orders."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian and Gongsun were both shocked!
Yes, the good news brought by Xuan Xi is that Xuan Ye has approved that a team of Xuantian Guards will be completely handed over to Jiulong Mansion for use!
Chen Yutian had already guessed this when Xuan Xi said the words "good news".
Because the words Xuan Xi said before coming in reminded him.
At that time, when he was saying "Xuan Tianwei can no longer be used by himself", Xuan Xi suddenly said "Who said he wasn't there" outside the door.
Moreover, the palace attire worn by Xuan Xi today is also an important clue to him.
For women from the Daxuan Dynasty, especially women from the nobility like Xuan Xi, palace attire is similar to men's official attire. Because women cannot serve as officials, palace attire has a more important role for them. significance.
And the most important one is that it is used as a dress!
Even if it is a formal dress, it should obviously be worn on formal occasions. Since Xuan Xi came here wearing palace clothes, it means that her visit to Jiulong Mansion this time represents not the identity of the Nine Dragons God Catcher of Jiulong Mansion, but She is the only eldest princess of the Daxuan Dynasty.
Therefore, when he saw Xuan Xi appearing in front of him in palace attire, Chen Yutian concluded that she came here because she had something to announce on behalf of the emperor.
Next is the three words of good news that Xuan Xi said.
Combining the two previous clues, the conclusion reached is... Xuan Xi came here to announce something on behalf of Xuan Ye, and what he announced must be related to Xuantianwei, and it is good news!
At present, there is only one good news for him, and it is related to Xuantianwei, and that is Xuantianwei's permission to use it!
In this way, the answer is ready to come out.
Although the final result was still slightly off, for Chen Yutian, this was indeed extremely good news.
Holding the token in his hand, Chen Yutian still had a residual look of disbelief flashing through his eyes.
Xuan Xi looked at him like this and smiled. Asked: "What's wrong, still can't believe this is true?"
Chen Yutian smiled and said: "Yes, after all, this news is too shocking. This is the most elite Xuantian Guard in the world. If you just give me a small team so casually, isn't the emperor afraid of disturbing other ministers?" Is it your criticism?"
Xuan Xi looked at him and thought, how could he be afraid of those criticisms? After all, your identity is very unusual.
However, Chen Yutian obviously didn't know what he was thinking.
Even if he knew, he probably wouldn't understand what Xuan Xi meant.
After all, he didn't know at this time that the Queen Mother had secretly summoned his father.
I don't even know what they talked about in that secret meeting.
…
…
The sun is shining and the sky is clear.
Ling Xiaowu sat alone in the room with his eyes slightly closed. On the wooden table in front of him was a piece of white paper. On the paper, a pattern is drawn.
That is a very ferocious snake head shape!
If either Chen Yutian or Gongsun were present at this time, they would definitely be shocked when they saw the snake head pattern on the paper!
Because the pattern in front of me is exactly the same as the tattoo pattern restored by Gongsun!
Suddenly, Ling Xiaowu's eyes suddenly opened, and a ray of light burst out!
He looked at the snake head pattern on the paper, snorted coldly, and said: "No matter where you are or how many of you are left, I will find you and kill you one by one... This is when I left that place. The oath I made when I was young can finally come true..."
When the last word fell, the door suddenly opened.
The people in the room also disappeared...
