Su Qiubai put the wrench back into the wooden box, closed the lid, and said, "We'll pretend that nothing has been found out now, let them relax their vigilance, and then let Ling Guang help create public opinion among the disciples in the past few days, and guide them to suspect Zhong Mingyang, but not show evidence." When the three-day covenant expires, he will definitely make it difficult for us because we have failed to find the real culprit, and then we will reveal his true colors and come up with evidence, which will be much more effective than if you went directly to him now. ”

Li Houqun on the side also nodded and said: "What Mr. Su said is reasonable, this is actually a psychological tactic, you are defenseless to point out that he is the murderer, and the others are unknown. The disciples of the truth will definitely have doubts about your words, and if we guide the disciples to doubt him first, then you will directly produce evidence, which will confirm their conjectures, because they will have preconceived doubts, and naturally they will no longer doubt you. ”

The two explained like this, and Anya finally understood what they meant, although they didn't make too many arrangements, but they could get better results with just a little trick, and she had to admire Su Qiubai's strategy.

After the plan was agreed, Anya was ready to go back with Su Qiubai, and before leaving, she said to Li Houqun: "Senior brother, can we take this evidence?" When the time comes, it will be more appropriate for us to take it out than for you. ”

Li Houqun looked embarrassed when he heard this, as if he was thinking about her words, but he refused to speak.

Anya immediately understood what he meant, she almost forgot that Li Houqun was willing to help her for a purpose.

"If senior brother has any requirements, you might as well speak directly, we don't say secret words, if there is anything I can help with, I will definitely not refuse." Anya said directly.

Li Houqun laughed when he heard this, and said, "Senior Sister An, where are you talking about this, avenging the master is also my duty as an apprentice. It's just that...... After all, this thing is about my future fate, and if you fail, I will inevitably be implicated, so I need to think carefully. ”

Anya thought to herself, Su Qiubai's guess was really right, his purpose was to be the head of the house, although he didn't say it, but other than that, there was nothing else that could make him take a risk.

Ruthless, Anya finally spoke: "There is a risk, there is a reward." If the senior brother and the third senior brother are eliminated this time, and the second senior brother can take over the position of the head of the house, then is it worth the risk? ”

Li Houqun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't expect Anya to say her thoughts so bluntly, and agreed directly without waiting for him to speak, it seems that this girl is not only smart, but also very sensible.

Although Anya was so generous, he was embarrassed to accept it directly, but pretended to excuse himself: "Then how can it be done?" I also know that Master entrusted you with the position of head of the family before he died, and if I were to be the head of the house, wouldn't it be a good thing to take advantage of others, and it would also go against the wishes of Master and his old man, which is very inappropriate. ”

Anya is not a person who likes to beat around the bush, since she has decided to give up the position of the head of the house, she has no nostalgia, so she said: "Master's move must have been done as a last resort, since he already knows the sinister intentions of the third senior brother, he naturally does not dare to fully trust you and the senior brother, and I have grown up with the master since I was a child, and there is no reason to harm him at all, so he has to hand over this position to me." But I knew in my heart that I wasn't fit to be the head of this faction, and I didn't like to be constrained. If my brother is not afraid of being tired, he will take over this drudgery for me. ”

She deliberately showed that she was not unfamiliar with the position of head of the house, and also gave Li Houqun a step down, so as not to appear that he was willing to help her because he coveted the position of head - although this was the case.

"This ...... Senior sister, this makes me embarrassed. If I don't take over the position, it seems that there is no one else to replace you, how can that be? Li Houqun still looked embarrassed, but he acted very well.

Seeing this, Anya suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, senior brother, don't pretend, since I dare to entrust you with the position of head, I naturally believe in you, so don't act with me anymore, otherwise I will really take back what I just said!" ”

Although she said it bluntly, there was no sarcasm in her words, but Li Houqun blushed for a while, and finally let go of the estrangement, and said seriously: "Since the junior sister is so refreshing, I am too hypocritical." Yes, the reason why I help you is indeed the position of the head of the family, and I am not afraid of your jokes, I have been staring at this position since a long time ago, because I know that with the talent and virtue of the senior brother, it is not enough to be qualified for this position, and the master will not pass on to him, and as a second disciple, I am naturally the heir of the second in line, but I don't want to end up with such a change. ”

The two are honest with each other now, but they feel much closer than when they were polite before, and Anya can finally put her mind at ease and entrust him with the position of head, which can be regarded as solving a piece of her heart.

"You can take this evidence, but remember to put it away carefully, Zhong Mingyang has a lot of eyes and ears in the door, if he finds out, our plan will be in vain." Li Houqun personally put the wooden box in Anya's hand and explained.

Anya turned the wooden box and nodded: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will be careful." ”

After saying goodbye to Li Houqun, Anya and Su Qiubai returned to their respective rooms. Now that the evidence is in hand and the plan is decided, the remaining day and a half of their time will be easy. But in order to create the illusion that Zhong Mingyang still had no gains, they had to pretend that they were still continuing to investigate.

In the evening, Zhong Mingyang came back with all the disciples, Anya secretly went to find Ling Guang, and according to Su Qiubai's instructions, he asked him to spread the news that Zhong Mingyang and Wang Bo had joined forces to murder the old master, and after completing this matter, she began to deliberately appear in places where she might meet Zhong Mingyang.

Sure enough, Anya met Zhong Mingyang in the place where the disciples practiced on weekdays.

"Senior sister is wandering around here, but you want to find evidence?" Zhong Mingyang greeted Anya with a smile and said.

Anya glanced at him coldly, but didn't say anything, just pretended to look around to check the surrounding environment, which undoubtedly confirmed Zhong Mingyang's words.

"It seems that you have already started to rush to the doctor, tomorrow is the three-day period, as a senior brother, I kindly remind you, you can't find anything useful here, don't waste time." Even if you turn this Qingyang faction upside down, you can't find what you want, so you take advantage of the three-day period before it arrives, and leave the division with your friends overnight, which is the best choice, so as not to be embarrassed when you get it. Zhong Mingyang said leisurely. In his opinion, it is impossible for Anya to find any evidence to prove that he killed his master, so in his opinion, Anya was destined to lose this war from the beginning, and naturally he would not take her to heart.

Anya felt funny in her heart, but she couldn't show it on her face, she just glared at him coldly and said, "Don't be happy too early, even if I can't defeat you this time, you will be punished sooner or later!" ”

Zhong Mingyang laughed when he heard this, and said, "Retribution? What have I done to be punished? Senior sister, don't you spew blood! ”

Anya's purpose had been achieved, and she didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, so she glared at him angrily and turned to leave.

At this time, Zhong Mingyang was even more sure that Anya and Su Qiubai had not found evidence yet, so what they were doing secretly would not be cared about by Zhong Mingyang, and the truth would be revealed tomorrow.

Ling Guang also spared no effort to help Anya spread the news, and it didn't take long for the disciples to start discussing the truth about the death of the old master, and the rumors that Zhong Mingyang was the murderer also spread more and more fiercely, and soon reached Zhong Mingyang's ears.

"Master, the disciples are all talking about this matter now, do you want to find a way to suppress it?" Zhong Mingyang's confidant disciple said.

Zhong Mingyang didn't care about this, and smiled indifferently: "Let them say it, this is probably Anya's strategy, thinking that this will make me mess up and give her a chance, then she is very wrong." When the three-day period arrives tomorrow, she can't come up with evidence, so what's the use of others even if they doubt it in their hearts? When I expel her from the sect, it won't be long before the disciples will forget about it, and at that time, no one will be able to shake my position as the head of the sect! ”

"Master is wise, then we will ignore their rumors?" The disciple was still a little worried.

Zhong Mingyang smiled confidently and said, "Don't pay attention to it, let them pass it on, the more fierce it is, the more painful it will be tomorrow!" ”

The next day, Anya and Su Qiubai didn't seem to do anything, and Su Qiubai even slept in the room for a day, and this was a self-defeating expression in the eyes of Zhong Mingyang and others.

The three-day period passed quickly, and early on the morning of the fourth day, Zhong Mingyang gathered all the disciples of the sect to wait for Anya and Su Qiubai in the martial arts arena, looking at his demeanor, it was obvious that he had already won the battle.

The weather has been bad in the past few days, and it has rained several times one after another, but there is still no sign of clearing, and the gloomy sky seems to indicate something.

When Anya and Su Qiubai appeared in the martial arts arena unhurriedly, the disciples present exchanged their heads one after another, and they were also very concerned about Anya's whereabouts, among them, naturally there were many people who had a good impression of Anya, but more disciples were just watching this matter with the mentality of watching the excitement.

When Anya walked to the martial arts arena, she glanced around, and said with a smile: "I'm still thinking about how to gather all the disciples in the sect, it seems that I am too worried, thank you senior brother for help." ”

Zhong Mingyang looked at her demeanor, not at all like she didn't find evidence, and suddenly felt a little weak in her heart, but after thinking about it, her precautions in the past few days can be described as not strict, she must not be able to find any flaws, and now this is mostly just a bluff, so she didn't take it to heart.
