Chapter 25: Bloodstains
Late at night, there were occasional insect chirpings outside the window.
Zhang Yunxian hadn't fallen asleep at the moment, the oil lamp on the stone table was still on, he stood in front of the stone table, picked up a brush, and wrote the names of the eleven female disciples of the Star Worship Palace on a piece of cloth.
The ink fell, the pen stopped, and the names of the eleven female disciples jumped on the paper.
He looked at the name on the cloth and was stunned.
Shu Yu, Xin Yao, Yue Ling, Nian Xuan, Qiu Yan, Ke Xin, Hui Qian, Yalin, Jing Qi, Wan Ting, Jia Qi
Why, is Uncle Ray sure that the murderer is among them?
If that's the case, then who has the possibility of killing Bai Ping?
You should go to the Thunder Pond to take a look, maybe you can find some clues
Thinking about it, he put down his pen and blew out the candles on the stone table, and the room fell into darkness, he walked out of the room, closed the door, and walked towards the North Palace.
As he walked into the corridor, he saw that it was pitch black all around, with the occasional wind blowing and the rustling of leaves.
I saw that the North Palace in front was brightly lit, and the two lanterns hanging above the main entrance were swaying in the wind.
Entering the North Palace, he turned a corridor and saw the stone chamber in front of him.
At this moment, the stone door of the stone chamber is still open without closing.
It was pitch black, only the sound of his footsteps echoed clearly, and the oil lamps on the surrounding walls glowed faintly, making it seem a little gloomy.
But he was not afraid of the dark, because he often walked at night as a child
Thinking of Bai Ping's bizarre death this morning, and Bai Ping's pale face, he was a little scared in his heart, but it was also a momentary feeling.
He felt that fear was a sign of immaturity in his heart, and as a man, he should not be afraid of heaven and earth, and stand up to the sky.
When he came to the stone gate, he stopped.
Because he didn't know what was in the stone chamber at this time.
His heart hung in the air again, and he was on guard.
He cautiously looked into the stone chamber.
I saw that the stone room was empty, the nine oil lamps on the wall of the stone room were glowing faintly, and there were occasional water droplets on the lightning guide stone, falling into the thunder pool, making a "dripping sound".
He walked into the stone room, came to the Thunder Pool, looked at the water in the Thunder Pool, and saw that the water in the Thunder Pool was crystal clear, without the slightest abnormality, and looked at the surrounding ground, there was still nothing special.
If not, how did the murderer transfer Bai Ping here?
He thought about it seriously, and seeing that there was nothing unusual here, he turned and walked outside the stone room.
He was a little disappointed because he didn't find any clues.
Walking out of the stone room, a scene suddenly appeared in his mind, Bai Ping was standing behind him, her face was pale and her head was bowed.
He turned around suddenly, only to see that there was nothing behind him, and there was no one, and he couldn't help but sigh, he shook his head, and said in his heart: "Fear yourself"
He cleaned up his nervousness, turned around, and continued to walk towards Nangong.
At this moment, he found a shiny thing on the ground in front of him, he walked over, and in amazement, leaned down to pick up this shiny thing, and saw that it was a blue transparent stone, in the shape of a circle, with three sharp edges and corners on the edge, and a round hole the thickness of an index finger in the middle, tied with a thin rope, which looked like a pendant worn around the waist.
He couldn't guess what this thing was after looking at it for a long time, and he said, 'Forget it, let's take it back and see it.'"
He took this thing and walked towards Nangong.
Bypassing the flower garden, I saw a girl in white walking towards me, it was Qiu Yan. She was looking around, as if looking for something.
Strange, how could she be here at such a late hour?
Zhang Yunxian was puzzled and shouted: "Qiu Yan"
Qiu Yan heard the sound and looked over.
Zhang Yunxian smiled and asked, "It's so late, why haven't you gone to sleep yet?"
Qiu Yan smiled slightly and said, "Oh, Ling Xue asked me to check the water volume of the Thunder Pool, why are you here?"
Zhang Yunxian said: "I can't sleep, come out for a walk"
Qiu Yan walked up to him, nodded, and said, "Oh, then I'll go, you be careful alone"
Zhang Yunxian nodded and said, "Well, you should be careful."
Qiu Yan nodded, said, "Hmm", and walked towards the stone chamber in front of her.
Zhang Yunxian looked at her back, didn't think much about it, turned around and continued to walk towards Nangong.
Back in the room, Zhang Yunxian lit the candle on the stone table, and the room was bright again.
He sat on a stone bench and looked closely at the strange thing in his hand.
He flipped the object over and saw a faint trail of blood on its back.
His heart was beating many beats faster, and he said, "Strange, what the hell is this, how can there be blood?"
