() Compared with the smooth cultivation of Hong Tuo's side, things have become more and more difficult on Shushan's side, and the cause of the matter still has to start with Jia Yi's case.

The five elders in charge of investigating Jia Yi's murderer interrogated Jia Yi layer by layer according to Jia Yi's relationship chain, and found out many disciples who secretly practiced evil arts, and finally even found out a few inner disciples, and it was those inner disciples who told him that Jia Yi had close contacts with the Great Elder and the Eighth Elder.

The Great Elder is in charge of the disciples' teaching, and why he is easy-going, many disciples like to ask him for advice, and the Eighth Elder is similar, which does not clearly point to anything, but coincidentally, these two elders are still in retreat and cultivation.

After all, when it comes to elders, the five elders are not easy to do, so they can only report to the head of Su Li, but disturbing people's cultivation is a taboo in the cultivation world, and they can only wait.

A day later, the great elder went out of the customs, and after leaving the customs, he was the first to visit the head of the house, and told Su Li with a happy face that the retreat had been fruitful, and he had an epiphany in the late stage of the Yuan Infant. indirectly explained why he had been in retreat for so long, and Su Li's head and Ah Lu also took the opportunity to check his body, and there was nothing unusual, temporarily dispelling the suspicion of the Great Elder.

During the period of waiting for the Eighth Elder to come out, the Fifth Elder closely monitored the actions of the Great Elder and the Second Elder, and did not find anything abnormal, but what no one expected was that something happened to the Eighth Elder.

The Eighth Elder died, dead in his retreat room, and found him in Ju Qi.

At the first time of discovery, Ju Qi immediately told Su to leave the master, and a wave of unsettled waves did not arise.

When Su Li, Ah Lu and the others arrived, they saw the corpse of the Great Elder who had already begun to decompose.

Ju Qi said that because of Jia Yi's matter, he had some doubts about his master, and this suspicion gradually fermented in the Eighth Elder's slow retreat, and he couldn't hold it back after the Great Elder came out of the customs, after all, the Eighth Elder had never been in retreat for such a long time before.

But just suspicious, Ju Qi didn't dare to rush in and disturb the master, knowing that that night, he always felt that something was wrong, so he came to the secret room of the Eighth Elder's retreat, sensed it slightly, and found that there was no aura fluctuation in it at all, so he opened the secret room, and what he saw was his master's corpse.

Su Li's head took a look at the corpse of the Eighth Elder, and judging from the fact that the aura had left his body and the degree of decay, the Eighth Elder had been dead for five or six days, and the specific time was probably around the time when the townspeople went up the mountain.

The way of dying is very similar to the way of going mad, but there is a clear difference, the person who goes mad loses his mind and destroys everything around him, while the things around the eight elders are all in place, not like dying of confusion.

Su Li also checked some remaining small Xiaoice blocks in the body of the Eighth Elder, and Ah Lu recognized at a glance that it was caused by Wu Gui's spell, and Wu Gui told her when he was healing.

Ah Lu, who recognized him, didn't hide too much, and told him the origin of these ice cubes, and everyone looked different.

The most unacceptable was probably Ju Qi, who knelt down in front of the corpse of the Eighth Elder, buried his face in the dark, and said bitterly: "Master has always treated people very well...... Why do you think so much......"

Su Li sighed and said, "I didn't expect it to be Mu Dui, he treats his disciples so kindly on weekdays, just to induce them to practice evil arts?"

This made it difficult for Ju Qi to accept, but he couldn't say anything to refute it now.

The second elder glared at the corpse of the eighth elder angrily, with a look of hatred and hatred, the third elder was full of regret, probably did not expect the eighth elder to do such a thing, the fourth elder stood next to the second elder with a cold expression, and did not seem to care, the fifth elder looked calm, carefully looked at the corpse of the eighth elder, the sixth elder showed a little pain on his face, closed his eyes and did not want to look at it again, the eldest elder was sad, standing in the corner and not speaking.

Ah Lu looked at the expressions of these elders coldly, if these were not illusions, she would have alleviated her suspicions about the second elder a little.

"The boss still examines carefully, and maybe he can find some evidence. ”

The fifth elder approached the head of Su Li and reminded softly, because the elders present were still suspicious, and for the sake of safety, they could only clear themselves at the same time.

Su Li checked it carefully, stood up and shook his head: "There are no external injuries on the body, only some broken ice exists in the body, as well as broken heart veins, the biggest possibility is that these broken ice caused by the madness." ”

For some reason, at this time, Ah Lu still believed in Wu Gui and believed that he would not be killed.

"The ice is not lethal, it only keeps people in a state of serious injury for a long time, so he shouldn't have died from that. ”

The Third Elder glanced at the corpses of the Eight Elders, stepped forward and used his spiritual power to take out some small ice cubes from the corpses, twisted them on his fingertips and observed them repeatedly. These pieces of ice were no bigger than a grain of rice, and no matter how he played with them, there was no sign of melting, so he tried to use his spiritual power to melt them until his spiritual power increased to a certain level before he could slowly melt it.

"Those who have been taken out of the body need so much spiritual power to melt, not to mention that the body follows the bloodline and swims together, the people who start this are not low......"

Ah Lu frowned slightly: "You mean that he went crazy in order to dissolve these broken ice as soon as possible?"

The Third Elder shook his head: "This is probably just one of the reasons, there should be some other reason, otherwise this secret room would not be so tidy." ”

The Fifth Elder thought for a moment and guessed: "The Eighth Elder is a water attribute, to a certain extent, he is more afraid of this kind of spell than other attributes, he should also know that not going out for a long time will arouse suspicion, and in a hurry, he should have used some extraordinary means, so something went wrong." ”

The second elder snorted coldly: "What's the use of thinking so much here? Just search here or in his Duize Palace, and you can always know something after searching for those dirty things!"

Because of his injury and refusal to leave the sect's diagnosis with Ah Lu, the second elder has always been the number one suspicion of everyone, even so, he is doing what he should do well, and his attitude towards this matter has also made the other elders let go of their doubts about him a little.

His proposal was very right, the head of Su Li set up an enchantment to temporarily protect the body of the eight elders, and sent people to search the eight elders' Duize Hall and this secret room.

It didn't take long for a law enforcement disciple to find out that there was a secret compartment in the secret room, and found some forbidden books in it, a few of which were banned by Shushan, and some of which Su Li had never seen.

For this reason, the head of the Su Li family and the elders rushed to the Hall of Elders overnight to discuss this matter, and half of the books in it did mention a kind of evil art, that is, to use the weapon of mutual restraint to stimulate their own attributes and achieve the purpose of cultivation.
