The current Wu State Court is dealing with the assassination of the late emperor in a vague manner. This is also a common practice among princes and countries. Regardless of what the people of the country think of it, regardless of what historians will write, at least they will not openly admit it. Therefore, Both Hu Gai and Wu Yuan used vague methods to deal with the matter. To find out the real assassin, the Academy still needs to find a way.
Wu Sheng is different from others. Others pursue investigation, which involves a process of first understanding, then investigating, then focusing, and then verifying. Wu Sheng directly skipped the first two steps, started with focusing, and first focused on the Wu members. , let Gusu Academy investigate the people around Wu Yuan, including the retainers who follow Wu Yuan, wild cultivators who often interact with Wu Yuan, generals in the army, etc.
Because Wu Sheng did not leave Gusu after the dinner, Wu Guochaotang was also keeping a close eye on Wu Sheng's movements. There were many more spies around the Gusu Academy, each of them pretending to have various identities, but they were expert students. In front of Brother She, there was some suspicion of being a mastermind.
Gusu Xuesha marked all these people one by one and found out that they were from the Xingren Division, which was the yamen in charge of the Wu Yuan. Therefore, Xueshu and the Xingren Division were in a de facto state of mutual surveillance.
Mr. Zhao was very unhappy and planned to question Pingrensi, but was stopped by Wu Sheng: "It's not necessary. Even if we go and speak up, will they restrain themselves? It's just a new group of people to keep an eye on them, and it will take a lot of effort. We have to identify it again. Just keep an eye on each other. With their level, can they still surpass Gusu Academy? Can they find out what we are going to do? "
Wu Sheng's affirmation was a great encouragement to Gusu Academy. The monks in the academy were all dedicated to handling major cases and quickly cleared out the things Wu Sheng needed.
This is a long list, and the list includes four parts: the twelve disciples of Wu Yuan, the six wild cultivators with whom he has come into contact, the seven lieutenant generals and assistants of the army who come and go frequently, and the large and small officials of the Xingren Division. There are all kinds of names, identities, addresses, etc. written on them are fifty or sixty.
Zhao Gongdao: "As far as we know, the assassin should be above the God Refining Realm, otherwise there is absolutely no chance of assassinating Wu Jun, so I am asking them to continue to inquire and extract the God Refining Realm monks from the list..."
While he was talking, Wu Sheng's eyes suddenly stopped on a name, and he couldn't help but smile.
His expression was noticed by Duke Zhao, and he quickly asked: "What did Fengxing see?"
Wu Sheng handed the list to Duke Zhao: "Look in the middle of the list, it's number fourteen."
Duke Zhao looked over and saw that it was recorded that Yutu Yaoli lived in the north of Hongshan and was good at swordsmanship. He is one of the six wild cultivators that the team member has come into contact with recently.
Duke Zhao asked: "Do you know this person in Fengxing?"
Wu Sheng chuckled and said: "Fish slaughterer? This person makes a living by fishing and killing fish on the surface. I guess he is a hidden assassin. Look at the people this team member keeps making friends with all day long. Sooner or later, something will happen. It happened. I guess that if Wu Jun was not killed by Zhuan Zhu, I am afraid that this would be inseparable. "
"Yes, I will arrange it now and let them check on this departure."
Wu Sheng asked again: "Did the assassinated ancestor of the Wu Kingdom have a son named Qingji?"
Duke Zhao replied: "Yes, this man is at the peak of the God Refining Realm. He is said to have infinite power and the courage to be unstoppable by ten thousand men. He is about to enter the Void Refining Realm. After Wu Jun was assassinated, this man led his disciples to flee to Weiguo. Also Dorex.”
Wu Sheng smiled and said: "I guess, the Wu members' intention to win over and leave may still be with Qingji. If my prediction is correct, something will happen to Qingji."
Mr. Zhao said: "This Gaoli... doesn't seem to be among the most wanted criminals in the academy. I haven't seen this name in documents from other academy either."
Wu Sheng said: "Why don't we go to Hongshan to see this Gaoli and confirm it."
Duke Zhao said in a daze: "Meet directly? Ask directly?"
Wu Sheng said: "I guess this Yaoli is not a hypocrite. If asked directly, even if he doesn't admit it, he won't just make up lies to deny it. Let's go!"
In the past few days, Mr. Zhao felt awkward with Wu Sheng's case-handling methods, and he couldn't help but want to complain a few words - another guess? Is everything based on guesswork?
But Sun Fengxing's past record in investigating crimes was there, and no one could deny it, so they had to hold back and see if they could find out by guessing again this time. He didn't refute at the moment. Sun Fengxing could just say whatever he said. He was in charge of the overall situation, and he wouldn't be the one to blame himself if something went wrong.
Outside the school building, Wu Yuan's Pingren Division has set up three secret posts. However, in the eyes of Wu Sheng and Zhao Gong, they are too amateurish and no different from open posts. This is also the new establishment of Pingren Division, which can almost be said to be for Wu Yuan. Tailor-made Yamen, because I don’t have much experience.
Mr. Zhao's carriage left the school building and drove around the city. It immediately opened a gap. Wu Sheng and Mr. Zhao went out in casual clothes and walked out of the city.
Hongshan has its own spiritual beauty, and there is a pond at the foot of the mountain. When Wu Sheng and Zhao Gong arrived, it was early in the morning, and the mist had not yet dispersed. The mountains and rivers were hazy, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
The two came to a farmhouse by the water and stood outside the fenced courtyard for a moment. Mr. Zhao said, "Not here."
Wu Sheng nodded. There was indeed no aura of master practitioners in the few simple houses. Even if Li was good at hiding his cultivation, with Wu Sheng's current state, he would still feel some traces if he came straight towards him.
A beautiful-looking woman came out of the house. She was dressed in simple clothes. It was clear at a glance that she was a peasant woman who often worked. There was also a girl with a hairpin tied under her knees. She looked at Wu Sheng and Zhao Gong hesitantly, and asked timidly: "Two noble men, what are you doing here?"
Duke Zhao asked: "This lady, is this the home you want to leave?"
The woman nodded: "Yes."
The girl holding her legs stared with big black eyes and asked curiously: "What are you doing with your father? He went fishing."
Mr. Zhao said: "Then let's wait here."
The girl glanced at her mother and saw her nodding, so she ran back to the house and brought two small wooden blocks over: "Sit down."
Wu Sheng liked children very much. Seeing that the girl was smart and cute, he smiled and said, "I'll do a trick for you. Find an empty jar."
Soon, the girl took an empty jar and watched curiously as Wu Sheng shook the empty jar in front of her eyes. As he shook it, there was a sound of coins rolling in the jar, and pieces of Wu Guobei fell out of the jar. currency.
The girl laughed happily, clapped her hands and jumped up and down, very happy. Her mother also smiled at the side, but politely declined Wu Sheng's attempt to keep the money.
Looking at the smiles of the mother and daughter, Wu Sheng suddenly remembered something, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
At this moment, a fishing boat broke through the mist and came to the shore. The girl happily called "Daddy" and ran to greet her.
