Chapter 193: The Mystery of the White Bone (Part II)

Xu Zun's words aroused everyone's high curiosity.

Especially that Li Rong'er, she had never figured out before, Xu Zun knew that Yongxing Fort was the most dangerous place, but he still insisted on making an alliance in Yongxing Fort.

Now I finally understand that Xu Zun has always had his own ideas and goals.

This also gave Li Ronger a new understanding of Xu Zun again, and the eyes that looked at Xu Zun were also strange again.

"Brother Xu," Li Yun'er instantly changed her name and urged Xu Zun, "Since you already know the truth, then hurry up and tell it to prove my sister's innocence!" ”

"Hehehe, don't worry," Xu Zun said, "I've never seen rabbits and eagles, and I don't have full certainty, so I usually won't easily reveal the bottom."

"But......," he said, pointing to the corpses all over the ground, "and now that the situation is in crisis, the official can only reluctantly make it difficult!" ”

"Then you should tell me," Zhuang Jingcheng and the other elders had reached their peak of curiosity, and hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on?" Why did our boss turn into a pile of bones? ”

"This is the simplest question," Xu Zun finally began his reasoning, "That pile of white bones is not your head at all!" ”

"What?"

As soon as the words came out, the whole house was shocked.

"No...... Isn't it the head? The elders were amazed.

"The owner of the white bone has been lying in the coffin for at least ten years," Xu Zun said, "and it is obvious that someone else has taken it out of the coffin." ”

"Huh? You ......," Zhuang Jingcheng asked in surprise, "what basis do you have?" ”

"It's actually very difficult to get a human skeleton in a real way," Xu Zun explained, "and when a person dies, the soft tissues of the human body will turn gray and smudge, like mud attached to the bones.

"So, the bones obtained through natural decay are gray or black.

"There are only two ways to get white bones, the first is to remove the flesh of the person who has just died, and then wash it and dry it.

"The other is to rinse the bones that have been dead for many years and have been reduced to human bones, so that we can get the kind of white bones that we see.

"And through my observation, the body of the so-called head of Wan Qi should belong to the latter."

Yes......

Everyone was stunned and full of suspicion.

"There are no knife marks on the white bones in the coffin, so they shouldn't have been cut out. However, there are obvious friction marks on the bones, which have obviously been rinsed and polished.

"And," Xu Zun said, "in order to make the bones pile up in the shape of meditating cross-legged, they also deliberately applied glue to the joints. ”

"Huh? This ......" the elders stared widely.

"Later, the reason why the bones fell apart must be because I was afraid that you would find out the problem, right?" Xu Zun continued, "But it's basically useless, the bones have already shown signs of degreasing, indicating that they must be at least ten years old."

"In addition, a rough estimation from the femur of the corpse shows that the deceased is about eight feet, much taller than your master.

"Also, the most clumsy thing is that the pelvis of the bones is protruding and deformed, and it is clearly a woman who has given birth to a child!

"The murderer is simply insulting your IQ......"

Yes......

There was an uproar at the scene, and no one expected it to be so outrageous.

"So......" Xu Zun said again, "the white bones are white bones, and they have nothing to do with your head, but they just put on the clothes of the head of the house, making you mistakenly think that you are the head." ”

"Huh?" Zhuang Jingcheng's cheeks trembled, and he asked excitedly, "What about the secret room?" The head of the door entered the secret room to cultivate and never came out, the door could only be locked from the inside, and we only entered after knocking open the stone door......"

"This is also very simple," Xu Zun said, "because this is a group play, and the murderer is not alone, they used a trick in front of you." ”

"Tricks?" An elder in the back exclaimed, "Impossible! We were all there! ”

"Do you know why I'm going to talk to the guards guarding the chamber?" Xu Zun said, "The facts should be like this.

"Your head Wan Qi entered the secret room to cultivate, but he didn't expect that there was an ambush in the secret room, and the murderers worked together to kill the head of Wan Qi, and then carried the body away and replaced it with the white bones that had been prepared a long time ago.

"The killers and the guards are all in a group, and everything is done in secret, so it won't arouse your suspicion."

"Impossible!" Zhuang Jingcheng took the lead in waving his hand, "Wan Qi is in charge of martial arts, even if a few of our elders work together, it is impossible to kill him easily, let alone do it so secretly?" ”

"Really?" Xu Zun objected, "Then you say, who can assassinate Elder Chengtong and Ma Xin Gang Leader with one blow?" ”

"This ......," the crowd pondered.

"You...... You said that the guards and the murderer are in the same group, okay," Zhuang Jingcheng turned his head and ordered a certain disciple, "Hurry up and call those disciples who are guarding the secret room, and you will find out as soon as you ask!" ”

"Second Elder......" one of the disciples replied, "those people are already dead!" Only...... Those are the ...... people."

Everyone looked, but the ones who saw the disciple signaled were the disciples of the Purple Mountain Sect who had been killed by Li Rong'er before.

"Huh? How so? Zhuang was taken aback and shuddered.

Xu Zun was also a little surprised, and muttered: "I see, this is to kill people with Li Rong'er's hands, what a good plan!" ”

"No," said an elder in the back, "even if you're right, the murderers killed Wan Qi and carried Wan Qi's body out and replaced it with white bones.

"But...... How did the door to the chamber lock? ”

"That's right!" Everyone was surprised and looked at Xu Zun one after another.

"This one is even simpler," Xu Zun said, "After the murderers placed the bones, they didn't all leave, but left one person in the secret room, and this person locked the secret room. ”

"Huh?" Zhuang Jingcheng's eyes widened, "In this case, wouldn't the person who stayed behind be unable to get out?" ”

"Right?" Xu Zun said, "The secret room was finally smashed open by you, and after the stone door fell, the smoke and dust suddenly rose, and you rushed into the secret room together.

"But after you go in, the first thing you see must be the white bones, and your attention is naturally attracted by the white bones.

"And the one who remains only needs to hide in the darkness of the doorway, and when you are all inside, he will quietly stand in the crowd!"

"Who would have noticed that there was one more person on the scene?"

"Huh? You...... You mean......" Zhuang Jingcheng asked, "this person...... Is it also my Purple Mountain Sect disciple? ”

"That's right," Xu Zun nodded, "He is not only a disciple of your Purple Mountain Sect, but also a relatively high status, even if he appears in the secret room, he will not be suspected!" ”

"This ...... Who is it? Who the hell is it? Zhuang Jingcheng swept to the disciples behind him and asked loudly.

The disciples bowed their heads in fright and retreated, silent.

"In that case...... "One of the elders came up with an idea, "we can check who didn't show up before we smashed the door, but after we smashed the door, he came out!?" ”

"That's right," the other elder chimed in, "it has to be a higher-ranking disciple!" ”

"Elder, Elder......" Hearing this, a disciple behind him suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said loudly, "I seem to remember that when we smashed the door, Senior Brother Ling Feng didn't seem to be there, right?" ”

"Yes, yes......" another disciple echoed, "Senior Brother Ling Feng is a disciple of Wan Qian Gang Leader, so he should have been present at the time, right?" A few of us talked about it at the time! ”

"And then?" Zhuang Jingcheng hurriedly asked, "Did you see him again?" ”

"Later...... It seems ......" a disciple standing farther away hesitated, "I seem to see him, right?" ”

"Yes, I seem to have a little impression, but I'm not sure ......"

"Okay, I guess it's him!" Xu Zun pointed to Ling Feng's corpse, "Otherwise, he wouldn't be the first to be killed." ”

"How...... How so!? Zhuang Jingcheng exclaimed excitedly, "It's just that my Purple Mountain sent a traitor, why...... Yes...... Will there be so much...... What exactly do they want to do? ”

"Wait......" Suddenly, another elder remembered something, and hurriedly asked in a loud voice, "There is one more thing that cannot be explained!" What about the man whose fingers turned to white bones when he touched the scales? ”

"What do you say?" This time, Xu Zun didn't bother to explain, and asked directly.

After a few moments, the elder finally realized, "Huh? What do you mean...... That person also has a problem? ”
