"What happen to you guys?"
Suddenly, there was a crisp but curious voice outside the door. Chen Yutian and Gongsun were slightly surprised!
Immediately, the two of them turned back to look at the door where the sound came from, and saw all the Nine Dragons Divine Catchers led by Yi Xue Tianhan and Huo Yuanji gathered together, looking at them with curiosity. Even saints such as Long Zun and Ice King gathered near the window.
"What happened?"
Huo Yuanji and Lin Feifei looked at the two of them curiously.
Xuan Xi walked directly in front of the two of them. When she saw the ruined picture in the middle of the painting, her bright eyes suddenly widened.
"This, is this..."
She looked at the two people in the room with a hint of disbelief.
Chen Yutian and Gongsun nodded slightly.
"Great! This is really effortless!" Xuan Xi showed an extremely happy smile on his face, and everyone at the door was slightly stunned.
Then more people came in and the room was quickly filled.
And when each of them saw the fragmented picture, without exception, they showed expressions of incredible surprise.
"I didn't expect that something that the Futian Sect has been looking for for so long would fall into our hands so easily. If Shi Dongji or Ye Hong found out, they would be so angry that their noses would be crooked." Tang Fengling said with a happy smile. .
Everyone nodded slightly in agreement.
Chen Yutian also smiled slowly. I have to say that this discovery is very exciting. After all, this residual map involves a lot. It involves whether the Holy Land of the Wind Clan, one of the eight holy clans of Shengwu in the past, is going to be destroyed. Reappearing in the world plays an extremely important role in the Futian Sect's final plan to revive the Shengwu Era!
But now that this residual map has fallen into the hands of their Jiulong Mansion, it will definitely be a huge blow to Futian Sect's plan!
And this kind of blow is exactly what they like to see.
Thinking of the way Shi Dongji and the others didn't know that the last fragment of the picture they were looking for had fallen into their hands, Chen Yutian couldn't help but chuckle.
"Is this the fragment of the map that records the burial place of the Wind Clan's treasure?"
Long Zun took the residual picture and looked at it for a while, then asked Chen Yutian, although he and other saints did not participate in the investigation of the case, they had heard some things from their respective apprentices. Moreover, several seniors also read the notes left by Wu Chengtian afterwards.
So the moment he saw the residual image, Long Zun knew the true appearance of this thing.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
Long Zun, Bing Wang, and Yan Zun looked at each other, with rare joy in their eyes, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay... Since this thing falls into our hands, then Futian Sect will Don’t ever think about being able to open that Wind Clan Holy Land again.”
"Master is absolutely right." Chen Yutian also nodded.
Everyone was immersed in the joy of discovering the broken picture, and did not realize that a figure was running towards this side in a hurry outside the door.
This person is Zhou Lin.
As he ran, he shouted loudly: "Master Chen, something happened! Something happened!"
He kept shouting and running, getting closer and closer to Chen Yutian's room. In the room, Chen Yutian frowned slightly after hearing his voice.
He already knew that another headless body must have been found.
Otherwise, Zhou Lin would never appear in Jiulong Mansion.
Thinking of this, Chen Yutian sighed slightly, then followed the sound and walked out of the room. When he let out the door, he saw Zhou Lin running over anxiously.
Seeing Chen Yutian from a distance, he shouted: "Master Chen, it's bad, something happened!"
Seeing him like this, Gongsun and others in the room also frowned slightly.
Chen Yutian looked at Zhou Lin, who was running out of breath, and asked with a slightly solemn expression: "Zhou arrested the head, but found another headless corpse? Or did he find another human head?"
Gongsun and others also looked at Zhou Lin solemnly.
But after hearing this, Zhou Lin suddenly shook his head while panting, "No, none of them..."
Everyone present was immediately confused.
Even Chen Yutian was curious.
"Since neither a headless body nor a human head was found, why were you in such a hurry to arrest the head that week?"
Zhou Lin took a few breaths and said: "Yes... yes... the old Yuelai store we went to before seemed to have been robbed last night, and all the paintings in the store disappeared overnight."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned!
After Chen Yutian, Gongsun, and Xue Tianhan looked at each other, Chen Yutian suddenly flashed his eyes and said to Zhou Linda.
"In this case, I hope you will take us over there to have a look, Mr. Zhou!"
Zhou Lin nodded and said: "This is why I have come here. Please come with me!"
After that, he walked away. Everyone in Jiulong Mansion hesitated for a moment, then followed him one after another...
…
…
Xing Enming stood in the lobby of Yuelai Old Store, frowning tightly.
This morning, as soon as he got up, he received a report from the owner Li Yun, claiming that something strange happened at their inn, and all the costumes hanging in the store disappeared overnight.
At first, after hearing what Li Yun said, Xing Enming didn't believe it. After all, there was no thief in the world who would be so bored as to steal all the paintings in an inn.
Moreover, a painting that can be hung casually in a guest room is definitely not a masterpiece by a famous artist and is not worth much money.
However, although burglary is not an unforgivable crime, once it is proven, several years in prison will always be inevitable.
For a bunch of not very valuable paintings, no one in the world should do such a loss-making business, risking several years in jail.
But when he followed Li Yun to the old Yuelai store, he realized that everything Li Yun said was true.
Because not only the paintings in the guest rooms of the store, but also the giant welcoming pine painting that I saw in the lobby when I came here last time has disappeared now.
Where did the thief come from, with such a special hobby?
The first time he saw the empty wall, an idea emerged from Xing Enming's mind.
But this thought only appeared for a moment, and then he forced it back.
As he inspected all the rooms in the hotel, Xing Enming's brows gradually became tighter and tighter.
Everything was just as Li Yun said, all the paintings in the old Yuelai store disappeared, and it happened overnight.
Xing Enming's expression gradually revealed a thoughtful look.
Judging from the situation at the scene, the thief should not be alone, because the traces left at the scene were extremely messy, and it seemed that the paintings were stolen in a hurry.
But even in such a chaotic scene, they did not wake up the shopkeeper and his wife who were sleeping downstairs, which shows that these people must not be ordinary people.
It is very likely that he is also a person in the world with special skills.
Thinking of this, Xing Enming immediately called Zhou Lin over and ordered him to go to Jiulong Mansion to invite Chen Yutian and others. After all, they knew best about the Jianghu people.
So Zhou Lin left in a hurry.
After burning incense, Zhou Lin led everyone from Jiulong Mansion to the scene.
"It's amazing! Even the big painting of the welcoming pine tree was swept away. This thief is really...unique!" Tang Fengling looked at the empty wall in the lobby opposite the store door, slightly speechless.
The rest of the people were also a little strange, why was there such a strange thief? Instead of investing in gold and silver, you only steal those worthless paintings?
Chen Yutian frowned slightly and led Xuan Xi around the doors of several stolen guest rooms.
The interiors of these rooms are all in chaos. Whether it is the arrangement of the furniture inside or the open and unclosed wardrobe drawers, they all give people a chaotic appearance.
Judging from the situation at the scene, the thief seemed to be in a hurry and almost pulled the paintings hanging on the wall away.
But such a reckless move did not alarm anyone in the inn!
Is this possible?
Chen Yutian frowned slightly, judging from common sense, this was naturally impossible.
But if people in the martial arts world are involved, this matter is not completely impossible, but even so, without considerable skill, it may be difficult to achieve this.
"This thief is so bold. Not only did he sneak into the inn directly, but he was so careless when stealing things. It's so arrogant..." Xuan Xi frowned slightly, angrily, "It seems they are very confident in their martial arts. Ah... Do you firmly believe that you won't alarm anyone..."
Listening to Xuan Xi's words, Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
"Yeah...I think they must think so...and they probably don't take the people in the inn seriously at all..."
"It's so arrogant...Who on earth has such courage?" Xuan Xi said.
Chen Yutian smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "Who do you think has such courage?"
Xuan Xi was startled for a moment, then turned around and rolled his eyes at him, saying: "I...how could I know? If I had known, I would have gone to find the thief long ago."
Chen Yutian shook his head slightly and smiled.
Seeing his appearance, Xuan Xi suddenly seemed to understand something and asked quickly: "Do you already know?"
Chen Yutian was noncommittal and said: "I do have some ideas, but without evidence, I can't make a random decision!"
When Xuan Xi heard this, his eyes flashed slightly and he asked excitedly: "Who is it?"
Chen Yutian smiled and said, "Think about it, the person who can take these words in such a hurry without making the slightest sound to alert Li Yun and the others should at least be an extraordinary master, right?"
"Uh-huh."
"There are so many masters of this level. In the martial arts world, only the four overlords who are as powerful as Taiyi Tianfu can produce them, right?" Chen Yutian said again, "After all, Extraordinary level masters are not found everywhere.”
"Not bad." Xuan Xi nodded.
"In addition, we have just discovered the last fragment of the treasure map from the interlayer of the painting. Such a major theft occurred here, and all the paintings were lost. Don't you think this Is it really a coincidence?" Chen Yutian said, "Don't forget, that painting was also brought from here."
"ah……"
Hearing this, Xuan Xi couldn't help but exclaimed.
"you mean……"
Before she finished speaking, Chen Yutian nodded slightly, "Yes, I think this matter is most likely their work."
When he learned from Zhou Lin that a theft had occurred at Yuelai's old store, and that all the paintings were missing, Chen Yutian had this suspicion in his mind.
But as he said himself, because there was no conclusive evidence, even though he was already certain of his guesses, he still did not say it out loud.
When he came here and saw the chaotic room, as well as Li Yun's statement that he didn't hear any sound last night, he became more certain of his guess.
But there is still no evidence.
But even so, he can be sure that the other party must be the Futian Sect who is eager to get the last remaining picture!
After all, he had just discovered the last fragment of the painting.
"It seems that the Futian Sect somehow learned that the last remaining picture was hidden in a painting in the Yuelai Old Store, so they sent their experts to the Yuelai Old Store in order to get it. Return to the remaining picture.
But those on the mission failed to find the painting.
The Futian Cult member who couldn't find the painting might have mistakenly thought that the painting had been hung in other rooms by the shopkeeper, but after all, there were paintings in every room in the guest room, so he simply didn't bother and went directly to the guests. All the paintings in the store were taken away, and he thought that among all the words, there was always the one they were looking for.
But they had no idea that the painting had already been brought back to Jiulong Mansion by us. So no matter how hard they look, they can't find it. "
After listening to Chen Yutian's explanation, Xuan Xi nodded.
"What you said is correct. This is the most reasonable explanation. It seems that the Futian Sect has realized that the last remaining picture is on the painting. I'm afraid it won't be long before they also know that the painting was taken away by us. I'm afraid I'll have to face them head-on again..."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian also sighed and nodded slightly.
"That's right...and I always feel that the force we are going to face next should be more than just the Futian Sect..."
Xuan Xi glanced at him in surprise and confusion.
Chen Yutian smiled slightly and said, "Do you still remember Liu Sanniang and the others we met at the Wu family manor?"
Hearing this, Xuan Xi's jade face suddenly cast a dark cloud.
An extremely rare killing intent emerged unabashedly.
Chen Yutian smiled bitterly, and then said: "Since they appeared in the Wu family manor, and finally took away Mrs. Wu, I always feel that their target should be the Wind Clan's treasure..."
A flash of surprise flashed in Xuan Xi's eyes, followed by a slight flash of murderous intent, and asked: "What do you mean..."
"I'm afraid the forces we are going to face need to be joined by a blade organization..." Chen Yutian sighed slightly.
A bright light flashed in Xuan Xi's eyes!
"Really... that's great... I was worried that I wouldn't be able to teach that bitch a lesson. Since they will confront us, there's no need to worry..."
Chen Yutian suddenly smiled bitterly.
It seems that Xuan Xi's resentment towards Liu Sanniang is really great!
At this moment, a yamen servant hurriedly ran in from outside the door and reported to Xing Enming: "Report... Sir, something bad has happened. Several fishermen just came to the yamen to report the crime, saying that they were outside the city. Two floating corpses were found in the river."
