Chapter 161: Murder in a Closed Room

Tuk Tuk!

On the top floor of the building, in a separate luxurious private room, Wu Ming sat cross-legged, heard the knock on the door, and gently patted the jade plate on the next side.

The kitten flashes and jumps into the sac!

Airplanes!

Light and shadow flow, the jade plate is dented, and the door opens automatically!

"Ming Shao, the commander asked me to inform you that the treasure ship docked in the Black Crow Fang City next to the old crow's nest for half a day, if you want to go out for a walk, remember the time!"

A tall young man stood by the door and bowed.

"Thank you Commander Liu for me, I won't go to Fang City, and I will be in the room when I pass by!"

Wu Ming groaned slightly and shook his head slightly.

"Yes!"

The young man did not stay long, but closed the door and left.

Wu Ming got up and walked to a round table in the room and sat down, flipping through a thick book.

The pictures and texts on it are intertwined, and the places passed through from Songyang City to Songshan Mountain are recorded in detail.

There are not only all kinds of dangerous places, but also many mountain towns, fang markets, small sects, gangs and other forces formed by this!

"Old Crow's Nest, Stone Thorn Forest, Wild Boar Slope, just to Songyang Academy, you will pass through at least three dangerous places, this is still a safe trade road that is almost straight walking, around the academy, I don't know how many dangerous places, and even fierce places, Jedi.

After that, you will pass through three dangerous places such as Wuyouping, Huaiyanggou and Jinli Gorge before you reach Songshan!

The mountains and rivers are far away, and thousands of miles are just the beginning, and the ancients will not deceive me!"

Although he had seen it many times, every time he counted these dangerous places that were extremely dangerous for the human race, Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh.

The so-called dangerous place is the spiritual realm where the spiritual energy surges after the sinking of the land in Shenzhou, which makes the landform change and the beasts and birds change!

In the spiritual realm, there are not only fierce places, but also fierce places and Jedi!

For example, the Baichuan Mountain Range that Wu Ming had been to before was an open-air dangerous place!

First, the area is too large, secondly, there are fewer special treasures produced, and thirdly, the Baichuan Mountain Monarchs of the past dynasties rarely hurt ordinary humans, so they have not been banned by the imperial court!

However, the spiritual realm of dangerous places such as the old crow's nest, the stone thorn forest, and the wild boar slope is different, but after the spiritual energy surges, the spiritual energy cliff is formed, and the dangerous place is naturally isolated!

There are monsters rampant in it, and there are many treasures, but they are isolated by the aura cliff, and they are imprisoned by special powers, and they can't go out!

It's just that people from the outside world can use rune formations or other special methods to enter from the weak place of the aura cliff!

Because of its extremely abundant output, there are many warrior settlements, which are commonly known as Fang City!

There are also imperial courts, sects or families settled in it, taking materials nearby, or replacement, or buying and selling, and so on!

Of course, there are also spiritual realms that are confined by powerful forces alone, and they have become the backyard of cultivating core disciples and cultivating treasures!

However, this practice has always been criticized by loose cultivation, and even several wars have broken out for this.

Although they are basically failures in casual cultivation, the losses caused over time are too great, and powerful forces such as sects will issue a certain number of places to scattered cultivators within their own sphere of influence every time they open the forbidden spiritual realm.

Even so, most of them didn't do anything, after all, there were still small forces such as the imperial court, large and small families, and gangs that depended on the sect to survive.

After apportionment, there is not much left, and the contradictions are still acute!

It's just that the sect is powerful, and the scattered cultivation is unsustainable, and then an organization similar to the scattered cultivation alliance was formed to counter the power of the sect!

But people's hearts are insufficient, once they have power, ambition will grow, and I don't know how many people will pay the price of blood!

"The Scattered Cultivation Alliance, although it seems to be able to compete with the top sects, is a non-governmental organization after all, and it is not on the same level as the official organization!

Moreover, there is only one alliance, but I don't know how many top-level sects there are, it seems that I need to think about which sects are suitable for my cultivation!"

The closer he got to the Shaolin Temple, the more difficult it became for Wu Ming's heart to calm down.

Whether it is the shock brought by the appearance of Bi Qingquan, the Nine Bags Elder of the Beggar Gang, or for the future progress of martial arts, a sect with sufficient resources and strong enough strength is needed to rely on!

It's like the difference between self-taught and systematically cultivated!

Throughout the ages, the former Li Dynasty has existed in all dynasties, but only I know the hardships and hardships!

Systematic training is different, not only has perfect infrastructure and teachers, but also has the experience of countless generations of sages!

This alone is enough to make Wu Ming take many detours!

Taking Wu Ming himself as an example, the acquired fighting instinct makes him almost as suitable for fighting in this life as if he were born!

And although Shaolin Temple is one of the few supreme forces in the top sects, the path of Buddhism has no chance with him after all!

Even if there is also a Dharma Academy that cultivates warrior monks, it is necessary to have the assistance of Buddhism to learn nine out of nine, in order to achieve success!

If it weren't for the fact that the Buddha used the technique of empowerment in the heavenly prison to transmit the "Yijin Sutra", I don't know how many years it would take to attain enlightenment.

Not to mention, seek to obtain the "Washing the Marrow Sutra"!

......

Half a day passed in a flash, and the treasure ship shook lightly and continued on its way.

Except for the old crow's nest spirit that he had seen from afar in front of the window, which was shrouded in a pale black light curtain, Wu Ming spent the rest of his time cultivating in the room.

I didn't even call for three meals a day, and only ate the rice marrow pill I brought.

Even though the people who came to deliver the food were Liu Zhenhai's confidants, they were also rejected by Wu Ming.

Even if martial arts is not an ascetic-like cultivation, it is not superfluous to go out and have more eyes!

Just after sailing for many days, the hull of the ship suddenly shook slightly, and a dull humming sound came into the room, making Wu Ming suddenly open his eyes!

"Hmm, my room has formation protection, and generally the movement will not be transmitted, calculate the time, it shouldn't be to the stone thorn forest!"

This movement doesn't look like someone is using force, it's like ......"

Wu Ming lowered his eyes and pondered, and before he could sort out his thoughts, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Once you've identified the person, tap on the jade plaque and open the door.

"Ming Shao, have you ever been disturbed by idle people?"

Liu Zhenhai's henchman, Liu Wu, a young man who is also a righteous son, stood at the door with a nervous expression and looked in.

"No one has ever come!"

Wu Ming replied truthfully.

"That's good, Ming Shao, please rest in peace and retire!"

Liu Wu's eyes roamed around the room, making sure that there was no one, and stretched out his hand to close the door.

"Wait a minute, what's going on?"

Wu Ming called.

"This ...... The commander said that Ming Shao is not an outsider, so I'll say it directly!

An old customer who has cooperated with us for many years in Guangyuanzhai died unexplained on the ship.

The father-in-law searched the whole ship, and none of the registered persons were missing, and the cargo was not reduced in the slightest!"

Liu Wu hesitated for a moment before re-entering the door and coming one by one.

Speaking of excitement, even the title of Liu Zhenhai has become a private title, which shows that his mood fluctuates greatly!

Come to think of it, the dignified innate powerhouse, and on the treasure ship controlled by his own family, there was a formation shield to cover it when sailing, and he even let people kill the passengers, not to mention, and he didn't even find the shadow of the murderer!

Where does this face go?

"I see!"

Wu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, I am afraid that it was Liu Zhenhai's anger before.

"My father-in-law told me to tell you that you must not leave the room, the murderer must still be on the boat!"

Liu Wu said worriedly.

"Yes, I know!"

Wu Ming nodded.

After speaking, Liu Wu withdrew from the room.

"According to the level of this treasure ship, at least the formation shield cannot be easily broken by the innate powerhouse, and it is also necessary to detect the presence of the talisman, and everyone who gets on the ship will be photographed first. If you want to hide the formation, you must at least have a special treasure or a cultivation above the grandmaster.

But listening to this meaning, the customer's cultivation is not high, and there is absolutely no need to dispatch such a strong person to kill such a person.

Since Liu Zhenhai is so determined, I'm afraid that eighty percent of the perpetrators are really on the boat!"

In the silent room, Wu Ming pondered for a long time, his eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know what to think, and suddenly got up and walked out of the door.

......

"Ming Shao, why did you come out?"

Liu Wu, who was searching everywhere, suddenly met Wu Ming and stepped forward with a nervous face.

Although I don't know Wu Ming's true identity, whether it is Shopkeeper Sun or Liu Zhenhai, they have all explained that in any case, they must be taken seriously, and there must be no mistakes.

"I'm so bored, come out for a walk!"

Wu Ming said with a smile.

"It's no joke!"

Liu Wu couldn't laugh or cry.

Since Wu Ming got on the boat, she has become a big girl who does not leave the door, which is very reassuring.

Suddenly appeared, I was a little confused!

"Don't worry, you should be busy, I won't get in your way!"

Wu Ming also knew that his identity was special, so he waved his hand indifferently.

"That's it, you're really going to panic, I'll be by my side!"

Liu Wu groaned and said.

"It's okay, then it's hard work!"

Wu Ming bowed his hand slightly.

In any case, Liu Wu is also an artistic conception martial artist, with him on his side, if there is an accident, there is also a response!

The two of them walked all the way to the upper floor of the treasure ship, which resembled the venue of the clubhouse.

At this time, hundreds of people gathered together, talking to each other and whispering.

Wu Ming swept his eyes and found that most of them were impatient, and only a few were worried.

This is also human nature, it's not about yourself, who cares how many people die?

Those who are worried are just afraid that the killer will threaten themselves!

"Ming ......"

Liu Zhenhai, who was comforting everyone, noticed the arrival of the two, his brows were slightly furrowed and he was about to speak, thinking of Wu Ming's situation, he swallowed back the words and glared at Liu Wu fiercely.

Everyone didn't care that there was one more person around, and almost all of them were discussing what to do next!

"Ming Shao, those few are the entourage of the horse shopkeeper!"

Liu Wuse shrunk his neck, and his chin was slightly raised to one side.

In his opinion, Wu Ming must have been interested in this matter when he left the room this time.

"Oh!"

Wu Ming nodded noncommittally, his gaze skimming inadvertently.

Five men and one woman, four of the men had slightly bulging temples, an old man in his fifties, with a sad face, and the last woman was no more than twenty-eight years old and pretty.

At this time, his eyes were slightly red, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he sobbed lowly!

"It's a pity, I heard that Mrs. Ma is jealous, and the shopkeeper died in this girl's room, and when she goes back, she will either reward it to her subordinates, or sell it to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion!"

Liu Wu seemed to realize it and sighed softly.

"Die in this woman's room!"

Wu Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Isn't it, the room is closed, there is no one around, and there is a talisman formation to make it perfect, who knows that it will be so strange to death!"

Liu Wu smiled bitterly, his face puzzled.
