Chapter 178: The Demon Palace and the Stone Mountain
"That's it, you went from number one to number five." I said slowly, "This conceals the fact that I have enough time to arrange the murder because I am the first to leave the underground mechanism - of course, I estimate that the disguise of Meng Yulong's corpse should have been earlier, after you left the agency, you only need to transport the body to Prince Yun's room and get a little more blood." β
"The small ranking order has such a deep meaning." Wang Ziyun listened and bowed slightly, "Commander Ling, it's time for you to do something." β
"Prince, inferences are only inferences after all, and there is no real evidence." Ling Zexu pressed the handle of the knife and said, "But ...... You can take it down first, and then torture it! β
As soon as the words fell, he was about to draw his sword.
"Wait, wait!" Wan Yushen shouted.
"Do you want to say that there is also the murder of Meng Yulong, and you have no chance to do it?" I said leisurely.
"Yes, yes." Wan Yushen nodded vigorously.
"That's right, we have long deduced that you, the Great Officials, don't have enough time to bypass the many palaces to kill Meng Weisi." I said, "However, this inference is only based on a common sense that people can't fly." β
"What do you mean?" Wang Ziyundao.
"It's literal." I spread my hands and said, "We can do light work, we can fly the eaves and walk the wall, sweep a few feet, but we can't really flyβwe can't fly, making it impossible to kill Meng Weisi in a short time and then return to the same place." β
"But if people can really fly, then the most suspicious person is Wan Daguan." Wang Ziyun added for me, "Because others were at the end of the team at that time, only he could catch up with others, and no one else would chase him behind him, which also cut off the risk of being recognized by latecomers because he left his position to kill people." β
"So you mean, I'm going to be able to fly?" Wan Yushen sneered.
"Of course you can't fly." I said, "But imagine how many ways we can get through when we're blocked by a very wide abyss." β
"That's a lot of ways." Wang Ziyundao.
"The simplest one." I say.
"It's easiest if there's a bridge." Wang Ziyuan said.
"Exactly!" I gave a thumbs up, "If you can't fly and want to go to the other side, the easiest and easiest way is to cross the bridge." β
"What exactly do you want to say?" Don't be afraid of anxiety.
"I want to say, although Wan Daguan can't fly, but if you want to cross the ten main palaces in an instant, and go back and forth to the palace hall in a short time, you can cross the bridge." I said slowly.
"Come here again, this is the Demon Palace, where is there any bridge?" Fearless.
"Yes." I smiled, "But not all the time." β
"You want to say there's some kind of secret tunnel?" Dare not stare at you.
"Definitely." I shook my head, "You've probably seen that kind of bridge β you see, it's not coming again." β
Following my line of sight, everyone's eyes turned to the window.
A huge black shadow swept past the outside of the Demon Palace.
"What's this?" Wan Wuwu disagreed, "Isn't it just a rocky mountain?" β
"That's right, Rocky Mountain." I said, "Along the way, the Demon Palace didn't know how many rocky mountains it passed, and once, I even thought that the Demon Palace was about to hit the mountain. β
"So what?" Fearless's face turned heavy.
"Have you ever wondered why the Demon Palace doesn't crash into a rocky mountain when walking in the great desert?" I asked.
"The desert is so big, how many rocky mountains can there be? It's normal not to hit it. "Don't be afraid.
"Then have you noticed that every time the Demon Palace passes by the rocky mountain, it is actually very close?" I asked again.
"This ......" is not afraid to hesitate.
"It's very close, indeed." Wang Ziyun affirmed.
"This is because the Demon Palace was originally walking along these rocky mountains!" I'm cut to the core.
"What?" Wang Ziyun was very surprised.
"Look." I took out the map of the Great Desert that I had bought in the Golden City and spread it out for everyone to see.
On the map, the location of many rocky mountains is marked.
"After such a long time, you should have noticed that this Demon Palace is not going in a straight line." I tapped on the map and said, "But the Demon Palace is not a living creature after all, it has no eyes and no brains, so what do you say it relies on to determine the direction of its own walking?" β
"Could it be that there is something in the rocky mountain that can affect this demon palace?" Wang Ziyundao.
Of course I know what's in the rocky mountains, and I even suspect that the Demon Palace is walking along those mysterious underground tunnels.
But this secret cannot be exposed casually.
"I heard that some people practice listening and arguing, and they have to blindfold themselves and hang countless bells around them." So I deliberately confused my vision, "For the Demon Palace, these rocky mountains may be just bells hanging up one by one. β
"It doesn't matter what the principle is." Wang Ziyun said, "The point is - the Demon Palace is really walking along the rocky mountain?" β
"I also suddenly thought of this when I was playing 'one stroke' with foreign beasts in the ventilation duct before." Let me briefly describe what happened to me in the ventilation ducts.
The ventilation ducts are fixed, and the route has long been decided.
The Demon Palace moves along the rocky mountain, and as long as you are familiar with the distribution of the rocky mountain, it is not impossible to predict its next walking route.
"Before Meng Yulong's murder, I climbed to the top of the Demon Palace." I pointed to the map and said, "At that time, the Demon Palace should have passed this rocky mountain. β
I'm referring to the one I thought was almost hitting a mountain.
"If when passing by this rocky mountain, the murderer performs light skills and jumps directly onto the rocky mountain." I analyzed, "In that case, the demon palace and the murderer walked in opposite directions at the same time, and the speed was doubled; In addition, the outer wall of the rocky mountain is far easier to settle on than the outer wall of the Demon Palaceβthe combination of the two advantages, the murderer can rush to the palace hall in a short time and kill Meng Weisi. β
"You're talking about going." Wan Wuxian gritted his teeth and said, "But what about coming back?" β
That's right, the Demon Palace walked forward, the rocky mountain retreated, and the murderer at the front of the Demon Palace jumped up the rocky mountain, and naturally he could reach the palace hall at the back of the Demon Palace.
But how is he going back?
Could it be that the Demon Palace will not be able to regress?
"This is indeed a difficult problem, even more difficult than the unthinkable means of killing Chief Fei Da." My gaze remained on the map of the Great Desert, "Because under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to return to the Fire Lion Palace from the hall. β
"Ordinary people are normal, only you, you are the most abnormal!" He glared at me with no fear or hatred.
"There's another person who isn't quite normal." I shrugged my shoulders, "This man is extremely intelligent, has ten thousand abacus in his heart, calculates all the time, and is completely familiar with the safe walking routes of business places - only this kind of person can discover the secret of the Demon Palace's reliance on rocky mountains in a short period of time, and thus plan this 'flying' trick that can pass through ten palaces in an instant!" β
