"But how did I hear that the culprit of all this is the woman of the Thrush?"

Xia Fan raised his eyebrows, and his eyes inadvertently fell on Dai Xingheng's body.

"Because in the course of our investigation, we accidentally discovered a suspicious place, but we were forced to have no clue evidence, so we concealed it, and it is normal for other disciples not to know. ”

Yu Hengchu, who noticed Xia Fan's eyes, directly explained the other party's doubts.

"What exactly did you find suspicious?"

Xia Fan, who was plagued by curiosity, also ignored Dai Xingheng.

"The woman's family entangled with Xingping all died under the sharp blade, but the woman's family member of the same door Wei Anshan died of severe poison, and the time of death between the two was three hours apart. Yu Hengchu and Pantuo debuted. "If the thrush woman wants to kill Wei Anshan's family, why bother to use poisoning, the most important thing is that the thrush woman and Wei Anshan have never known each other, and she has no reason to kill Wei Anshan's whole family. ”

"That's where I'm weird too. Xia Fan nodded thoughtfully. In this way, there seems to be a mysterious third party in the original incident. ”

"The sect used to have the same suspicions in this regard, but the old man has already said that we have not found any clues and evidence to prove that there was a so-called third party at that time. Yu Hengchu shook his head and said. "So it's all just speculation. ”

"Interesting, it seems that I need to go to Nanxi myself. ”

Xia Fan touched his smooth chin and thought.

"Then again, why do you care so much about this?"

This time it was Yu Hengchu's turn to be puzzled.

"Just a promise. Xia Fan waved his hand absentmindedly. "Alright, I've asked what I should ask, so let's leave it at that. ”

"Senior ......"

Shi Xiaofei suddenly couldn't help but scream.

"Okay, it's not life and death, we may meet again in the future when we have the chance. ”

After speaking, Xia Fan turned around and left without hesitation.

"Wait. ”

At this time, Dai Xingheng suddenly spoke.

"Anything else?"

Xia Fan turned his head and said.

"Here's to you. ”

Dai Xingheng took out something from his arms and threw it at Xia Fan.

Xia Fan took it in his hand, and then found that it was a round jade pendant the size of an egg.

"If you want to go to Nanxi to investigate the truth of the year, this thing can allow you to get the help of the local clans. Dai Xingheng hurriedly said.

"Thank you. ”

Xia Fan smiled at Dai Xingheng, put away the jade pendant casually, and after waving his hand, it gradually disappeared in front of their eyes.

"Xiaofei, come back to the mountain with us. ”

Yu Hengchu patted Shi Xiaofei, who was still reluctant to see Xia Fan away, sighed lightly.

......

As the saying goes, it's easier to go up than to get down.

But for Xia Fan, it makes no difference, but he has lived in the mountains for ten years, and it is as easy as walking on flat ground in the mountains and forests with complex terrain.

Not long after nightfall, Xia Fan finally returned to Tanjiagou.

After a brief night's rest, he led the horse and left Tanjiagou early the next morning, and Shi Xiaofei's horse was simply left to the villagers of Tanjiagou.

"It's boring to have no one to talk to on the road. ”

After leaving Tanjiagou and returning to the official road, after inquiring about the direction of Nanxi from the caravans by the way, Xia Fan embarked on the road to Nanxi alone.

Without Shi Xiaofei as a companion, one can imagine the boredom of being alone in a hurry.

Especially after staying away from the county town and villages, there is basically no one on the official road along the way for half a day, and there is a bleak late autumn scene as far as the eye can see.

Therefore, Xia Fan simply cultivated on the horse, he was not afraid of taking a fork in the road, after all, when he reached his realm, he could easily sense the wind and grass around him when he closed his eyes.

Lost? non-existent!

Xia Fan set up the flag!

It's a pity that Flag didn't work!

Before the evening, he arrived in Nanxi County smoothly.

Yao Mansion.

The most powerful family mansion in Nanxi County.

When Xia Fan led Ma Youyou to Yao's mansion, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

Because he saw that there were white curtains and white lanterns hanging in front of the door of Yao's Mansion, and even the guards in charge of guarding the door were wearing sackcloth and white cloths, which was obviously that Yao's Mansion was doing white things.

"Who are you?"

When the nursing home noticed Xia Fan who was standing in front of the house, he immediately walked up with a wooden stick in his hand and asked.

"Give it to your master, who naturally knows who I am. ”

Xia Fan threw the jade pendant that Dai Xingheng gave him to the courtyard.

The nurse took the jade pendant and looked at the young man with an extraordinary background in front of him with a shocked expression.

Immediately, the nursing home exchanged two words, and immediately one of the nursing homes took the jade pendant and hurriedly returned to the house.

"You wait here for a moment. ”

The nursing home warned Xia Fan, and for a while they were in a stalemate.

Xia Fan didn't embarrass the nursing home, after all, people are doing their best to fulfill their responsibilities of caring for the hospital, and they are not deliberately targeting themselves.

Not for a moment.

The door opened, and soon a group of people in linen clothes walked out, and one of the middle-aged men with a dignified face immediately stepped forward and bent down after seeing Xia Fan in front of the mansion.

"I don't know if the distinguished guest is coming, please forgive me for not waiting for a long time!"

"No need to be polite. Xia Fan raised his hand and said. "I'm only here to ask for your help with something in Nanxi. ”

"The honorable guest is too polite, you can tell me to wait if you have something. The middle-aged man hurriedly said.

"Okay, it's not early, if you don't mind, can you invite me into the house for a night?" Xia Fan said.

"Honorable guest, please!"

The middle-aged man immediately motioned to the people around him to get out of the way.

The identity of the Star Picking Building really works!

In this regard, Xia Fan could only sigh in his heart.

"I wonder what happened in your mansion recently?"

Under the leadership of the middle-aged man, feeling the bleak and oppressive atmosphere in the house, Xia Fan couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Qi Qi honored guest, the dog died suddenly and violently not long ago, so ......"

The middle-aged man choked up with a sad look.

"I'm sorry, but please mourn. Xia Fan said.

"This has nothing to do with honorable guests, it's purely a dog misfortune ......"

The middle-aged man said, as if he wanted to say something.

"Dare to ask why your son died violently?"

Xia Fan, who was aware of this, simply pushed the boat down the river.

"It is precisely because I don't know the cause of death that I feel very sad. The middle-aged man said with a pained expression.

"I don't know the cause of death?"

"Yes, I invited all the local officials to conduct an autopsy, and the results were all told without exception that the dog died of a sudden serious disease, but the dog was strong and strong before this, and there was no disease at all, but when he returned one night, he died violently and inexplicably. The middle-aged man gritted his teeth. "So, I suspect that someone used some means to assassinate the dog. ”

"Uncle, who is this?"

At this time, someone suddenly stopped them in front of them.

Look up.

It turned out to be three young men and women with obvious characteristics of people in the rivers and lakes.

Two men and one woman.

"Huan'er, this is a distinguished guest invited by my uncle, you must not be rude and offensive. ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly scolded the other party.

"Yes! The juniors know. ”

The three of them solemnly arched their hands at the same time.

"Who are they?"

After separating from the three, Xia Fan asked casually.

"Qi Qi honored guest, just now with us is the nephew who is below, the other two are the dog's original friends in the rivers and lakes, after hearing the news of the dog's death, they specially came to Nanxi to mourn the dog. The middle-aged man said.

If Shi Xiaofei was there, he would definitely recognize him.

These three people are the men and women who broke into the yin shop in the middle of the night.

It's a pity that Xia Fan, who didn't know about it, didn't take the three of them to heart.

But he had noticed something just now.

It doesn't seem like these three people are simply here to mourn.

Because their faces were very solemn, as if they had encountered something tricky.
