Chapter 352: Clues

Boss Shi's heart was shocked, like thunder.

He agreed with this immortal master's words, because the current situation of the Shi family was not as glamorous as it seemed.

Mining a large lapis lazuli mine like Sangmu Island, with huge profits that are clear to the discerning person at a glance, how can no one be tempted? There is no cultivator in his Shi family, and he has relied on long-sleeved dancing over the years, and he has been low and small everywhere, but even if this is the case, the challenges from the open and the secret are not interrupted for a day.

Among them, there is the power of the chamber of commerce with strong financial resources, and the mysterious cultivation power in the background, which makes him deal with it very much, all these years of exhaustion, people don't know that the destiny of heaven has become old, and it doesn't work to eat any elixir.

Because it's the heart that is tired.

Now coupled with the private collusion with Chao Xianshi, it makes him even more worried all day long, like sitting on pins and needles; He didn't care about the profits from these private mines, but he didn't dare to go against the wishes of the Chaodao people, which was the sorrow of mortals.

He has no right to refuse.

Hou Yu's words made him suddenly, yes, the Shi family has endured too much red-eyed jealousy for a hundred years, and he can't put an end to these things at all, the more he earns, the redder others' eyes will be!

Why not take the initiative to let it go? There is always an arrangement for yourself, and you can get out of the whole body, if you wait until others force you to come up, I am afraid that if you don't put the Shi family even off the pot, you won't be able to enjoy it.

Especially when the Shi family itself is not clean.

He didn't belong to the mind of suffering from gains and losses here, and Hou Yu next to him said lightly:

"I've talked to you so much before, you probably know what I want to know, right?"

Boss Shi subconsciously replied, "I know, what you really want to know is the news of that Immortal Master Li, and the rest is all about the ear covering......

Hou Yu sighed in his heart, sure enough, there is no fool in this world, if he didn't defeat the mine owner psychologically, he was afraid that if he walked on the front foot, everything about him on the back foot would be on the desk of Chao Daoren.

Boss Shi also reacted immediately, "This Immortal Master, I won't tell Immortal Master Chao about what you want to inquire about; People like us are most taboo to hand out small words in front of the immortal master, no matter who is evil, there will be no good fruit."

Hou Yu was noncommittal, "Then I'll be relieved, then, is there anything else you can tell me before I leave?"

Boss Shi gritted his teeth, "...... That's right, more than a month after that Li Xianshi's accident, one of my mine guards and I accidentally mentioned that it was just the day before Li Xianshi's accident, when he happened to pass by a tidal reef more than ten miles outside the island, he saw Li Xianshi practicing on it.

I haven't talked about this matter to outsiders, because the investigation has passed, and mortals like us can cause less trouble and less right and wrong, so we haven't reported it, but I don't know if this has anything to do with the murder of Immortal Master Li?"

Hou Yu said lightly, "Are you sure?"

Boss Shi cursed and swore, "There will be no mistake, that mine guard is a fisherman, and his biggest hobby is to go out to sea to fish on a small sampan; He has such a ability, and of course he generally can't go far.

He only told me about it, and none of us dared to spread it......

Hou Yu patted him on the shoulder, "Very good, I'm curious, why do you trust me so much that it won't hurt you?"

Boss Shi sighed, "Because you are also from the Imperial Sword Weapon, you obviously have something to do with Immortal Master Li; Immortal Master Li is the most upright and bold of all the immortal masters I have ever met, and although he is sometimes too harsh, he treats us as human beings."

Hou Yu nodded and nodded to him meaningfully, "If you want to start a new era for the Shi family, it will be a good opportunity for the Chao Dao people to leave, and the new island owner will be glad that he can arrange his own people to be in charge of everything on Sangmu Island, and he will forgive a lot of things generously."

In other words, even in the air, it can be regarded as a kind of reward for providing information to Boss Shi;

The idea of mortals is still too naïve, the same is greedy for ink, the monk is exposed at most to spit out a part, if the legs and feet are faster, no one can take him when he runs back to his own country, how can mortals run? Especially a local clan like the Shi family?

Yes, the purpose of his coming here is to complete the assignment given to him by Li Chuping

Mission: Investigate the cause of death of Quanzhen Sword Cultivator Li Shi.

This mission is a bit nonsense, because the time is too far away, and based on his experience in handling cases in Bears Ears, the probability of solving the case is very low.

The timeline is too long, the evidence is gone, the insiders on the island are not cooperative, the owner of the island is a Wumen Taoist who hates the whole truth, and his own realm is far from the level where he can use some special means, all of which make the investigation full of uncertainty, so he can only treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

At least I've been here myself, even if I don't find anything, I can say it reasonably from Li Chuping, and I can prevaricate a few words.

In fact, the news heard here by Boss Shi was not particularly different, it was mentioned in the file that Li Chuping gave him, and it was even more detailed and comprehensive.

Li Shizhong's death is full of suspicions, the biggest of which is that no possible murderer has been found; According to the judgment of the monks who rushed to the scene at that time, Li Shizhong died due to poor mana control during the cultivation process and died of exploding.

The explosion method is also a kind of madness, which refers to the fact that the monk went astray when absorbing the spiritual opportunity of heaven and earth, because of the frivolity and rashness of quick success, and finally caused the mana in the body to be uncontrolled, and finally exploded and died.

There is a phenomenon in the world of cultivation, called the illusion of hallucinations, which refers to the fact that the monk seems to be in a state of excited hallucination, and the spiritual consciousness and the actual physical situation are diverged.

Obviously, the mana in his body was already in a dangerously full state, and he needed to stop and slowly polish, refine, and compress, but the monk didn't feel this at all, and still absorbed the spiritual power without restraint, running the mana at a high speed, and was in a state of mental excitement.

It is the demon in the heart that enters the body, and goes mad.

This kind of situation also happens from time to time in the cultivation world, but most of them are concentrated in the disciples of small sects or loose cultivators who have no background. It is inconceivable that a disciple of a big sect like Li Shizhong would make such an amateur low-level mistake.

Everyone knows that there is something strange in this, but no one can find the culprit.

Many cultivation methods have high requirements for timeliness, and it is extremely difficult to find clues after the effective backtracking time has passed;

Li Shizhong's body was not discovered immediately after his fall, and mortals like Boss Shi did not dare to look for him easily, so it was not until more than ten days after his fall that he was accidentally discovered by a passing monk, and so far, the best time to judge has been missed.

I didn't find it at the time, let alone now eight years later, so Hou Yu didn't really hope to find a specific clue.

Unexpectedly, Boss Shi gave him a little surprise?
