Chapter Ninety-Nine

A reception feast that lasted until late at night.

Zhang Yuelu drank a few glasses of rice wine, but she was not drunk.

It's not how advanced her cultivation is, it's just that she drinks an amazing amount of alcohol. And she didn't drink much, but she couldn't refuse, so she only drank a few glasses. It is true that she likes what is in the cup, but she also knows the occasion and does not put her own preferences above business.

Of course, she can not take Pan Cuiqing's face, let him withdraw the banquet, and take her to see the corpse now, she takes advantage of it, and Pan Cuiqing can only do it. But as a result, there is no need to make an enemy. Others will also think that she is too self-righteous and ignores people, so it will be difficult for her to walk in the future.

Some people will even see the shadow of the Five Generations Great Palm Sect from her, and they will suppress and beware of her.

If she wants to go further, she will have to learn to be patient and hide some of her intentions, and even to be with the light at times.

In the middle of the night, the rain stopped.

Zhang Yuelu walked out of the painting boat, in the dark, only to see the stars in the sky and the lights in the distance reflected on the lake surface of Qujiang Pond, it was really the galaxy in the sky and in the water.

Good view.

It is also a scene that can only be seen in prosperous times.

However, after the prosperity, there is also an undercurrent.

The majestic prosperity is the best example of the past.

At this moment, Yue Liuli also walked out of the shipbuilding and came to Zhang Yuelu's place not far away.

At the banquet, Pan Cuiqing tried Zhang Yuelu's intentions several times in vain, and there was no choice but to let Yue Liuli come forward, thinking that she was also a woman, and she might be able to gain something. Yue Liu was weak in the centrifugation, but he also had to face Zhang Yuelu alone.

"Miss Yue." Zhang Yuelu spoke first, using a very unorthodox title.

Yue Liuli used the standard Daomen title: "Deputy Hall Master Zhang." ”

Zhang Yuelu glanced behind Yue Liuli: "Since the farewell of the Qing Palace on Yunjin Mountain, three months have passed in a blink of an eye, I didn't expect so many things to happen, and I hope that Miss Yue will mourn." ”

"Thank you Vice Hall Master Zhang for your concern." Yue Liuli, whether it is a Taoist grade, a position, or a teacher, is far lower than Zhang Yuelu, so he puts his posture very low.

Zhang Yuelu then asked, "Is there something wrong with Miss Yue?" ”

Yue Liuli said softly: "It's just that I didn't expect Deputy Hall Master Zhang to come over in person, I was flattered, and I came to thank you." ”

"I see." Zhang Yuelu nodded, and the words changed abruptly, "Just now at the table, I saw that the relationship between Miss Yue and Pan Fuli seemed to be a little extraordinary. ”

Yue Liuli was taken aback, a flash of panic flashed on his face, and he forced a smile: "After all, Auxiliary Pan is Senior Brother, and Senior Brother Wan's affairs are also handled by him, so during this time, I have had more contact with Senior Brother Pan." ”

Zhang Yuelu smiled and was noncommittal.

Qi Xuansu was able to deceive Zhang Yuelu several times, firstly, Qi Xuansu studied under Qi Niang, and he did have a hand in pretending

, secondly, Zhang Yuelu rarely ponders Qi Xuansu's words and deeds. But Yue Liuli is different, she doesn't have Qi Xuansu's ability, and she can't let Zhang Yuelu not think about her, and she can't hide it immediately when she is a little tired.

In fact, through the experience accumulated in Beichen Hall, Zhang Yuelu is most suspicious of Yue Liuli and Pan Cuiqing, since ancient times, adultery and murder have never been uncommon, and they can all be classified as love killings. In Zhang Yuelu's view, Yue Liuli is undoubtedly the most suspicious. However, Zhang Yuelu is only suspicious, and will not jump to conclusions, the dirty person is innocent, and the specific situation will have to be seen before the corpse.

Yue Liuli was commanded by Zhang Yuelu with words, and he was in chaos, and he could only say a few words of irrelevant words, and then retreated in embarrassment.

Compared with Zhang Yuelu, who has experienced all kinds of ups and downs, Yue Liuli is a little immature. After all, the calculations of the children in the Vientiane Dao Palace are far from being comparable to the real Dao Gate infighting. Zhang Yuelu has seen and personally experienced the Jiangnan case, and it can be said that she has quite a lot of experience in struggle.

Just like Wan Xiuwu and Qi Xuansu, when he was in the Vientiane Dao Palace, Qi Xuansu was indeed not Wan Xiuwu's opponent. But after leaving the Vientiane Dao Palace, Qi Xuansu first followed Qi Niang in the rivers and lakes, licking the blood from the knife edge, and then followed Zhang Yuelu to face all kinds of cult demons, and he had extremely rich combat experience. Wan Xiuwu lived a comfortable life in the Wuxu Palace, and the two fought again, naturally Wan Xiuwu was easily won by Qi Xuansu, even if Wan Xiuwu had a certain advantage in realm cultivation.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuelu demanded that the body be examined immediately.

As far as Wan Xiuwu's death is concerned, Pan Cuiqing really has a clear conscience, so naturally he did not shirk it, and personally led Zhang Yuelu to check the body.

Zhang Yuelu didn't know how to conduct an autopsy, but someone from the Tiangangtang Taoist priest who came with her was specifically responsible for this, and stepped forward to examine the body again.

In the end, it was concluded that Wan Xiuwu died from an ordinary armor-piercing projectile, and judging from the piercing wound of the projectile, it can restore the scene of being held against the head and opened, which is consistent with the case file provided by Wuxu Palace.

It can be determined that this projectile is from Tianjitang. However, Tianjitang does not know how many armor-piercing projectiles it produces every year, and it is impossible to confirm the origin of the projectiles, and the possibility of projectiles flowing into the black market cannot be ruled out.

Then there is Wan Xiuwu's corpse, although it can be seriously burned by the fire, it can still identify some traces of fighting, and the last few serious injuries were all punched out by fists, so Wuxu Palace will identify the murderer as a martial artist, but there are also some subtle wounds that are not fatal, which are knife wounds.

He said to Zhang Yuelu: "Deputy hall master, the corpse is burned to the point that it is not visible, but the position of the knife cannot be changed, and some of the wounds have already injured the bones, leaving traces on the bones, which cannot be burned by fire." ”

Zhang Yuelu didn't say a word, and personally examined the part of the knife wound.

The result shocked Zhang Yuelu.

This is the trace of the "Great Yan Spirit Knife".

Although the "Great Yan Spirit Knife" is claimed to be traceless, it is for the face of "big

As far as the "Yan Ling Knife" is concerned, in fact, any routine move is traceable, and Zhang Yuelu himself will be able to "Yan Ling Knife", which can naturally be recognized at a glance.

Among the Daomen, the use of swords is the mainstream, and there are very few people who use swords, even to the point that they are about the same as the blades of Qimen. Human energy is limited, and few people can use both swords. Zhang Yuelu is because "photoless paper" can be ever-changing and his own qualifications are sufficient, so he has also cultivated a "Great Yan Spirit Knife".

In other words, there are not many people who can use the "Great Yan Spirit Knife" in the Dao Gate, and the celestials can't cultivate other supernatural powers on their own before, unless they are taught by the master, and there are even fewer people who can use the "Great Yan Spirit Knife" under the heavens. And if it is a celestial man, then Wan Xiuwu will not resist for such a long time, and will only be cut off by a knife, which is also a corroboration.

The murderer is suspected of being a martial artist, he can skillfully use the fire gun, he can use the "Great Yan Spirit Knife", and his realm cultivation will not exceed that of heaven and man, probably around the stage of Jade Void to the stage of returning to the truth.

The image of a person jumps out.

Originally, Zhang Yuelu would not have thought of Qi Xuansu, but Pan Cuiqing mentioned the old grudge between Qi Xuansu and Wan Xiuwu in the Vientiane Dao Palace in the case file.

Is it just a coincidence?

Zhang Yuelu forced herself to calm down.

In the eyes of others, Zhang Yuelu just didn't say a word, thoughtful. But Zhang Yuelu's heart was already overturned, and the two thoughts kept colliding.

One thought was that Qi Xuansu did not die, he survived, killed Wan Xiuwu under the nose of the Wuxu Palace, and then walked away.

Another thought is that someone knew that Qi Xuansu and Wan Xiuwu had an old grudge, so they pretended to be Qi Xuansu and killed Wan Xiuwu to confuse the public. After all, Qi Xuansu was something she watched fall with her own eyes, and she knew the root of Qi Xuansu's realm cultivation, and she had no chance of surviving at all.

Whatever the idea, there are certain possibilities.

After a long time, Zhang Yuelu said slowly: "There are not many people who can use firearms, superb swordsmanship, and martial arts in the Dao Gate who meet these three conditions." However, people in the court abounded, especially Qingluanwei and the man in black. ”

Pan Cuiqing said softly: "What does Deputy Hall Master Zhang mean...... The murderer is a member of the court? ”

Zhang Yuelu motioned for Mu Yan to take the map, pointed to the map and said, "You suspect that the murderer is a person who has a secret association, and it is impossible for him to flee to Xijing Mansion and 'Ghost Pass', but will only flee in other directions." But if the murderer is not a person who secretly forms an association, but a person in the court, and happens to pass the token......"

"'Ghost Pass'!" Pan Cuiqing's eyes widened, "He can pass through the 'Ghost Pass' and leave under our noses with a swagger, even if our spirit officer in charge of the search passes by him, he won't be able to see anything." He can even turn back to Xijing Mansion and hide right under our noses, playing with us under the dark. ”

Zhang Yuelu said in a deep voice: "Check the recent clearance record of the 'Ghost Pass'. ”
