Chapter 219: Back to the Black Cauldron

"What?" This time, even those who had fallen asleep woke up. Late at night, the crowd gathered on the fourth floor of the cabin.

Chu Lao, who was still in front of everyone in the morning, had already encountered an accident at this time. Looking at the eye-catching knife wound on the old man's back, it was obvious that the other party had premeditated and would kill with one blow, so that Chu Lao didn't even have time to protect himself.

"At that time, was there anyone by Chu Lao's side, who was responsible for the safety of the night." A middle-aged man looked at the guards solemnly.

One of the guards walked out tremblingly,

"Yes, it's me." I saw a middle-aged man grabbing the guard's collar.

"That's how you look at Old Chu?" The guard said with a bitter face, "Chief, it's really none of my business." ”

"Chu Lao said that he was going to check the operation of the ship's formation, which was a secret, so he let me out, who knows, it didn't take long for me to hear a shout, and when I opened the door, that's it." The guard hurriedly said,

"I'll tell you after that."

"Hmph." The steward loosened the collar of the guard,

"Search me all to see if there are any traces of the murderer around here."

"Yes!" Then the steward looked around at the crowd.

"Everyone, it's going to delay you a little time, the formation is limited, and the murderer can't leave here, then, he must still be on the boat at this moment, and when the murderer is caught, we will let everyone get off the boat, please understand." In the crowd, many people were a little dissatisfied, but they didn't express it.

After all, in a special period, rushing to get off the boat will arouse the suspicion of the Chu family.

"Boss! There are discoveries. The guard shouted from the window. The middle-aged man walked over and found that in the corner of the window of Chu Lao's room, a few drops of blood had not been wiped away.

"It seems that the murderer was negligent." The middle-aged man wiped the blood and probed the spiritual power inside.

"This is not Chu Lao's bloodstains, it seems that Chu Lao hurriedly counterattacked, so that the murderer was also injured."

"In such a short period of time, it is impossible for the murderer to heal the injuries on his body." The Director pondered for a moment, then looked at the crowd.

"Guys, it's offended, we need to check your injuries."

"Why?" At this time, someone in the crowd finally spoke.

"I paid money to build your ship, so there is such a thing on the ship, that is, you yourself are not properly guarded, why do you let me let go of the protection and let you investigate?"

"yes!" Someone else chimed in,

"The Chu family is too domineering." Many of the people on the ship were immortal cultivators, and most of them were arrogant, so they naturally didn't want to obey the Chu family's arrangement.

For a time, the two sides were deadlocked at this level. Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face turned pale. I wanted to be angry, but the man understood that this matter really had nothing to do with the public, and it was on his side.

So he put down his anger and said in a good voice,

"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter is not handled properly by our Chu family, and when we get off the ship, we will return your spirit stones." A few people in the crowd shouted at this point.

Seeing that the mood in the crowd had stabilized, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and began to arrange for the guards to check the situation of the boarders one by one.

Wei Changming and several people got together, and Wang Yu yawned, a little dissatisfied.

"It's really not a good night's sleep." The personnel of the Chu family investigated one by one in order. Many people were injured, and the Chu family found that this was not a small amount of work.

After all, there will inevitably be fights on the path of cultivating immortals.

"What for!" At this moment, a trace of conflict arose in the process of investigation. Wei Changming looked over and found a man with a scar on his face, who was lifting the collar of his right arm and said,

"I'm a knife wound! You can't tell the difference between the knife wounds? I saw the man break free from the guards on the side, pointed to Chu Lao's corpse and said, "Have you ever seen your Chu Lao use a knife?" There is no distinction between right and wrong, right? ”

"What's going on?" I saw that the previous head of the Chu family heard the quarrel and walked over and looked at the guards. A guard of the Chu family walked up to the chief steward and whispered a few words in his ear.

The steward nodded.

"Let this brother go." Only then did the guards let go.

"Humph!" The scarred man rubbed his wrist,

"Don't think that I don't know that the Chu family is good at palming, as the elder of the Chu family, Chu Lao naturally uses the palm, even if you want to investigate, you should also check the palm injury, what does it mean to investigate indiscriminately?"

"Does the Chu family use the palm technique?" From the words of the scar man, Wei Changming got a very useful information,

"Perhaps, the Chu family can indeed start to investigate from this point." Then Wei Changming looked at the manager,

"However, doesn't the Chu family know this?" After hearing the scarred man's words, the manager thought for a moment and nodded.

"What this brother is saying is that in this way, we can narrow it down." Then the steward looked at the guards,

"Did you hear what this brother said? Do as he says. ”

"Yes!" After being probed by the guards of the Chu family, several people who confirmed that there was no suspicion were allowed by the Chu family to leave this floor.

So many people left one after another, and they didn't want to complain when they left.

"What's going on, don't let people rest at night." Wei Changming and a few people were waiting in the corner, and the Chu family personnel were about to check here, a moment later.

"It's your turn, please cooperate." The guards of the Chu family were a little tired and visited Wei Changming and the others.

"No problem." Wei Changming and the others raised their arms.

"Huh? What is it! At this time, the tired Chu family guard suddenly came to his senses, pointed to the corner of Wei Changming's clothes and said.

"Why is there blood on your clothes?" This exclamation caused everyone on the ship to turn their heads and stop.

"What bloodstains?" The chief manager also rushed over when he heard the sound, and when he saw Wei Changming, he was stunned. Then he looked at the blood stains on his clothes.

I saw the manager wipe it with his hand, probed it, and looked grim.

"It's the blood stains on Chu Lao's body, and the residual spiritual power is exactly the same as Chu Lao!"

"The murderer has been found!" Wei Changming, who heard the conversation of several people from the Chu family in front of him, didn't know why.

"Are you mistaken? I haven't been to Chu Lao's floor at all, let alone have anything to do with his death? ”

"And what is the explanation for this bloodstain?" The chief steward pointed to the blood stains on the corner of Wei Changming's clothes.

"Judging by the color, it is obviously stained recently, and it is very likely that it happened after getting on the ship." The manager looked into Wei Changming's eyes,

"My spiritual sense will not deceive people, and I am very familiar with the spiritual power of the Chu family."

"Wait." Jin Yi on Wei Changming's side spoke, pointed at Wei Changming and said, "We have no grievances with your Chu family, why do we do this." Besides, he wasn't injured at all, and the blood stains might have been inadvertently rubbed somewhere, so why was he judged to be the murderer based on this comment? ”

"Then tell me where you got it." The chief manager looked at Wei Changming. Wei Changming thought for a long time, reviewed his brother's time period after he boarded the ship, and suddenly remembered the night before.

"I remembered. Before Chu Lao died, I was relaxing on the deck, and at this time, a person suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and in a hurry, I collided with him. Wei Changming said: "The bloodstains may have been rubbed at that time." If that's the case, then the person who collided with me is the murderer of Chu Lao. ”

"Then please tell me about the features of the person who collided with you." Wei Changming shook his head.

"It was dimly lit and I couldn't see each other clearly."

"Is there anyone who can see the same and witness for you?" Wei Changming was silent for a moment.

"Nope."

"Humph!" The manager sneered,

"You're the murderer."

"Someone, take him down."

"Why don't you take people indiscriminately?" Feng Yichen and Wang Yu stood in front of Wei Changming.

After walking together for a long time, several people naturally believed in Wei Changming's conduct. The conflict between the two sides is on the verge of breaking out. At this time, a hand stopped in front of the two.

"I'll go with them." Wei Changming stepped forward.

"I believe that the truth will come out by then." In the crowd, the people who left the valley whispered.

"It's good that I didn't have anything to do with them."

"Yes, if we really have to go together at that time, I'm afraid that even we will be implicated and arrested together." Only the leader Li Jiuping frowned and looked at the young man who was negotiating with the Chu family.

Could it be that Wei Changming is really such a person? This night, many people did not feel sleepy.

"Boom, boom!" Listening to the sound of the boat docking, Wei Changming slowly opened his eyes. After last night's incident, Wei Changming was locked up in a room at the bottom of the boat by the Chu family, guarded by two guards.

Leaving with the passengers on the ship, there were also the guards of the Chu family who hurriedly disembarked from the ship. After all, if such a big thing happened on this voyage, it was necessary to report it to the Chu family as soon as possible.

"Bang dang!" As the door to the room opened, the middle-aged man walked into the room and greeted the two guards.

"Take him out and go to Chu's house."

"Knock, knock, knock." Under the guard of the Chu family, Wei Changming stepped off the ship. At this time, Feng Yichen and the others were already waiting on the shore.

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine."

"Come with us." After the dozens of people from the Chu family set up the boat, they took the body of Chu Lao and guarded Wei Changming in the direction of the Chu family.

······

"Why don't you let us in?" At the door of the Chu family, Feng Yichen and the three of them followed the Chu family to this place, and after looking at the Chu family showing the token, they walked into the gate, so they hurriedly followed.

But when the three of them walked to the door of Chu's house, they were stopped by the guards at the gate.

"The Chu family is important, and idlers are not allowed to enter." The guard was expressionless.

"Am I not the partner of the murderer identified by your Chu family? Why don't you care about the same party? Feng Yichen sneered.

Listening to Feng Yichen's words, the guard at the door of Chu's house changed his expression slightly, but he still stood still and replied: "I only listen to the elder's errands, and the elder only asks for the young man to enter." ”

"Hmph." The three people who entered the door to no avail could only wait anxiously at the door of Chu's house.

"Wei Changming, don't have anything to do, I'm still waiting for you to go to Nanwu together."
