Chapter 368: Something Happened Again
After discussing in the hall until the middle of the night, discussing how to lure out the suspected demigod murderer failed, Gu Lingzhi and the two returned to the temporary residence of the triple courtyard, planning to go to Yang Xinyu's house with Chu Jiang and a few other Lingcheng executives early tomorrow morning to see if they could find any clues.
The four subordinates who were in charge of serving them turned pale with fright when they saw the two returning, apparently still suspecting that the two were murderers. The two of them had no interest in explaining, waved their hands and let them rest separately, and went back to the bedroom without being served.
After some lingering, the two of them drilled into the inheritance space and cultivated. Although Rong Yuan had always shown an attitude of indifference to the demigod who suddenly appeared, he still couldn't help but want to strengthen his strength. There is such an uncertain factor, he has to put himself in an absolutely powerful position. In this way, Gu Lingzhi can be better protected.
The situation in the inheritance space was the same as before, Pan Wen and Bian Cheng were bound to die in a corner. Stuffing a soul control bead into Pan Wen's mouth, Gu Lingzhi sent the person out of the inheritance space to help her pay attention to the situation outside. He was tinkering with the medicine garden outside the main building.
Because it was impossible to cultivate spiritual plants in the Lost Land, and the spiritual plants were completely a situation where one was one less than one, Gu Lingzhi had to find a way to cultivate more useful spiritual plants. Fortunately, she had the habit of planting spiritual plants in the space a long time ago, and she still has many spiritual seeds in her hands. All we have to do now is to expand the number of these spiritual plants.
A short distance from the medicine garden was selected as a large geologically fertile clearing for the new medicine garden. Gu Lingzhi manipulated the earth spiritual power, raised a row of walls around the clearing, and manipulated the spiritual power to turn over the soil, and then raised his hands and sprinkled a handful of ordinary spiritual plant seeds, and then manipulated the earth spiritual power to cover the seeds. Then he flicked his wrist again, and a light rain began to fall above the field where the seeds had been sown. Provide sufficient water for newly planted spiritual plants.
After several repeated operations of loosening the soil, planting, and watering, this small medicine garden was finally planted with spiritual plants by Gu Lingzhi, and in the future, he only had to let Pan Wen, who was controlled by the soul beads, scoop some water from the spirit lake every half a month to water it.
Just as Gu Lingzhi's gaze moved to another clearing, planning to build another medicine garden and plant some medium spirit plants, there was movement from the wisp of the spiritual consciousness that controlled Pan Wen, and someone outside was looking for her!
Gu Lingzhi immediately didn't care about opening up the medicine garden, and glanced at Rong Yuan, who was still cultivating, and left the inheritance space.
Outside the space, Gu Lingzhi who Pan Wen saw was obviously relieved, and then anxiously explained the current situation. It turned out that during the time they entered the inheritance space, there was another death in the Spirit City!
This time, there was another golden warrior among the victims. The loss of two Golden Martial Artists in two days was a rare occurrence in a lost land where cultivation was difficult. The four servants who were serving Gu Lingzhi were so frightened that they didn't even dare to come out this time. Wei Lingshu led people directly to the bedroom where they lived and knocked on the door.
"Elder Rong, Elder Gu, are you asleep? Please come out for a while, okay? Another golden martial artist has been killed, and we need your help. Wei Lingshu's voice came through the door, and his future meaning was clearly stated.
Hearing this, Gu Lingzhi frowned, took Pan Wen into the inheritance space, and moved Rong Yuan out. Coldly transferred from the aura of the space, Rong Yuan could still react from this huge gap, and he heard Wei Lingshu shouting again outside the door, "Are the two elders here?" ”
Xu didn't wait for the two of them to answer for a long time, and another voice said in a strange voice: "I think you don't knock, you haven't come out for so long, you must not be inside, maybe the murderer is them, and the evidence is being destroyed at this time." ”
"Ye Shu, how can you say that about the two elders? The city lord has said that the murderer will not be them, why are you still holding on?" Wei Lingshu was a little speechless, and he was also a little suspicious that no one had opened the door for so long. If you're not in your room in the middle of the night, you won't really go out and do anything bad, right?
Before this idea came out, I heard Rong Yuan's lazy voice with sleepiness, "It's still Lord Wei who is aware of everything, unlike some guys who listen to the wind and rain will follow the trend and slander good people." ”
Hearing the voice, Wei Lingshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they are at home, and a lot of suspicions have been ruled out, but since they are in the house, why haven't they opened the door for so long?
Wei Lingshu's doubts were instantly realized when he saw Rong Yuan and Gu Lingzhi.
The clothes were messy, and at first glance, he knew that he was wearing them casually, and Rong Yuan had a lazy face that was obviously after something. Gu Lingzhi, who was following behind, had even more crimson cheeks, and his small mouth was ruddy with a suspicious glow. The long hair is not combed nicely like in the daytime, and it is slightly messy behind the back. Looking at the eyes outside the door, he was shy and pretended to be calm. In this scene, why the two of them took so long to open the door is simply unknown. Wei Lingshu immediately said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry." ”
Qiao Yeshu was also a little embarrassed and tugged at the corners of his mouth, "The two elders are really interested." ”
The desired effect has been achieved, Rong Yuan turned sideways to block Gu Lingzhi, lest her seductive appearance be seen more, raised his eyebrows and sneered: "The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, and if you don't linger with your own lady, do you stand at the door of others like some people and scream?"
"Who are you talking about?" Qi Yeshu's embarrassment was suddenly lost by Rong Yuan's words, "The matter of the boudoir can be said so boldly, without shame!"
Rong Yuan sneered: "My husband and wife close the door and love each other, and they don't affect anyone, but you don't know what to do here, who is not ashamed?"
"You ......" was once again stunned by Rong Yuan and had nothing to say, Qiao Yeshu was so angry that he wanted to pull his collar, but Rong Yuan easily slapped it away, looking at him like a fool, "Do you want to do it with me?"
An amethyst who only has the cultivation of a spiritual master dares to provoke him? Ignorant or really stupid?
Seeing that Qiao Yeshu was so angry that he was about to lose his mind, and moved his hand, Wei Lingshu pulled the other party with a headache and roared: "Don't make trouble, it's important to get down to business!"
Being yelled at by this, Qiao Yeshu remembered the purpose of his coming here, snorted, and stepped aside angrily. looked at Rong Yuan, but there was still hostility in his eyes. It seems that the successive deflated hands of Rong Yuan have made this upright amethyst hate Rong Yuan.
When several people hurried to the scene of the incident, they found that it had been surrounded by three layers of people, and bursts of cursing came from inside.
Seeing the arrival of several people, the people surrounding the outside closed their mouths at the same time with a tacit understanding, looked at Rong Yuan and Gu Lingzhi with frightened and cautious eyes, and silently made a passage for them.
Wei Lingshu thanked him and walked in first.
A man and a woman lying on the ground, as seen during the day, were killed by very cruel means, and the internal organs and * were gone, leaving only a bloody scene. The smell of blood wafted through the room.
Wei Lingshu squatted down in front of the two corpses as in the day, investigating the cause of their deaths. A few more questions were asked about the victim.
He was answered by a beautiful woman about thirty years old. The situation of the two deceased people was clearly known, and the answers were concise and clear. Gu Lingzhi couldn't help but look at her a few more times and asked, "How do you know so clearly?"
Pan Meixian laughed miserably, looked at the man's corpse, and said quietly: "I am his wife, how can I not know his situation?"
"Are you his wife?" Gu Lingzhi was a little surprised. The two corpses on the ground, apparently attacked in their sleep, were still wearing the middle clothes they wore when they were sleeping. If Pan Meixian is the man's wife, what is the identity of the woman who died?
"That's the concubine he brought back from outside. Without waiting for Gu Lingzhi to ask her questions, Pan Meixian spontaneously solved her confusion, glanced at Rong Yuan with her eyes, and sneered: "Not every man can guard his only wife dutifully after he is strong. They will always find all sorts of reasons to fill their evenings. ”
It's no wonder that her husband died, and Pan Meixian's reaction was so calm. Gu Lingzhi cast a sympathetic look at her. No amount of affection can withstand the betrayal of one of them.
At this time, Rong Yuan also finished examining the two corpses, and said to Wei Lingshu with a calm face: "It's still that person." ”
Wei Lingshu nodded. The same method of killing, at the same point in time, even if Rong Yuan didn't need to be sure, he could conclude that it was the same person as yesterday.
The onlookers still didn't know what happened in the City Lord's Mansion, and their speculation about the murderer, like Yang Pengyu, directly targeted Rong Yuan and Gu Lingzhi. At this moment, seeing that Wei Lingshu didn't mean to question them at all, on the contrary, he seemed to trust them quite a bit, and he was immediately dissatisfied, "Master Wei, what's going on, shouldn't you catch the most suspicious person and interrogate them first?"
"Arrest whom?" Wei Lingshu glanced at the person who spoke, "The two elders are guests of Lingcheng, and they have nothing to do with the murders in the past two days. Now he takes the initiative to help us find the real culprit. If you know any clues, you must tell us. If you have seen a suspicious person in the city in the past two days, just say it, and try to narrow down the scope of the murderer as much as possible, so that we can find that person as soon as possible. ”
The people around said yes, and there were really a few people who provided some vague clues, all of which were recorded by Qiao Yeshu on the side, and they planned to find someone to find out the few people mentioned in it for interrogation later.
And so it goes, and the time of the night passes quickly.
There were two deaths in a row, and according to what others thought, even if the perpetrator thought that he was strong and not afraid of pursuit, he should rest. But on the third night, the same scene happened again.
This time, the victim was an alien golden warrior who came to Lingcheng to do business.
