Chapter 278: Doubts

After the scene stabilized, Chu Xiu didn't entangle with the five people, he directly ordered Chu Xiaode and the others: "You guys go in and start investigating." ”

Chu Xiaode and the others nodded, and began to enter the various rooms of Zhuangzi to investigate the traces and examine the corpse.

At this time, Qiu Dongmao said: "Since the people from the Guanzhong Torture Hall are here, can I go to see my father's body?"

Cheng Buji and the others were staring at Chu Xiu, although they didn't want to have any conflict with Chu Xiu, but if Chu Xiu didn't agree to his son's small request to see his father's body, then he would be too much.

Qiu Zhensheng is their father-in-law, Qiu Dong Mao is Qiu Zhensheng's only son now, of course they have to stand up for Qiu Dong Mao.

Chu Xiu didn't embarrass him this time, but said lightly: "Yes, but you'd better not touch anything, otherwise you can't afford to destroy the scene." ”

Wu Tiandong snorted coldly, and the others didn't dare to refute, and directly took Qiu Dongmao in to see Qiu Zhensheng's corpse.

The bodies of the Qiu family were all parked in an empty room, and the dragoons had already preserved them all in ice coffins.

Qiu Zhensheng's appearance is the face of a middle-aged man in his fifties, and he has stepped into the Sanhua Gathering Peak Realm very late, so he also looks a little old-fashioned in appearance, but his appearance is still square and magnificent.

At this time, there were no scars on Qiu Zhensheng's body, but his face was gray, and he also exuded a strange blue and black color, which looked very evil.

After seeing Qiu Zhensheng's corpse, Qiu Dongmao seemed to collapse in an instant, lying in front of Qiu Zhensheng's ice coffin and crying loudly, crying because his liver and intestines were broken, and his appearance was very miserable.

Cheng Buzhi on the side comforted beside him: "Young Master Qiu, Engong has left, please mourn and change, the top priority is to find the murderer and kill him to comfort Engong's soul in the sky." ”

Qiu Dongmao nodded sadly, but he still couldn't help crying.

Chu Xiu frowned slightly when he saw this scene, and a sense of disobedience surged into his heart, and the source of this sense of disobedience happened to be Qiu Dongmao.

Chu Xiu is not a good person, and he doesn't mind using the greatest malice to figure out a person.

Qiu Dong Mao is Qiu Zhensheng's illegitimate son, in fact, according to the strength and identity of normal Qiu Zhensheng, Qiu Dong Mao is also one of his heirs, and there is no such thing as an illegitimate child at all.

The result is because of Qiu Zhensheng's oath at the beginning, as Qiu Zhensheng's son, a person who can stay by his father's side and be carefully taught, and can become the heir of Pegasus Ranch in the future.

But Qiu Dongmao can only be thrown in Shangyang County, and everything he can get is pitiful, and he can't even see his father a few times a year.

Qiu Zhensheng's eldest son, Qiu Dongning already has the strength of the Neigang Realm, and Qiu Dongmao's age is obviously over twenty years old, but the result is still the Blood Coagulation Realm, which is fundamentally different.

This situation is replaced by Chu Xiu, he will be 100% resentful, it should be said that if it is placed on anyone, anyone will feel unfair.

As a result, this Qiu Dongmao is showing such grief and so real, either the other party is really the kind of person who is most filial, only cares about the relationship between father and son, and doesn't care about his own treatment at all.

Or, this Qiu Dongmao is acting, but this acting is very good, ignoring the rationality, this crying liver and intestines look like a dead father, Chu Xiu can't find fault, of course, it is indeed a dead father.

It's just that compared to the former, Chu Xiu still believes in the latter more, human nature is evil, how many people who grew up in this environment are mentally healthy?

At this time, Cheng Zhouhai said lightly: "Young Master Qiu, please get out of the way, I will check Qiu Zhensheng's corpse later." ”

As he spoke, a slender and small knife in Cheng Zhouhai's hand was held in his hand, and there was a cold glow on the blade.

Qiu Dongmao's face changed: "How do you want to check?"

Before Cheng Zhouhai could speak, Chu Xiu said lightly: "Young Master Qiu, how can we check that it doesn't seem to be your business, is it possible that I will do things in the Central Torture Hall, and I have to report everything to you?"

Qiu Dongmao's face was sad, and he pointed at Cheng Zhouhai and said, "He wants to destroy my father's body, is it possible that I want to look at it like this?"

At this time, Cheng Bu on the side pulled Qiu Dongmao and comforted: "Young Master Qiu, the methods of the Guanzhong Torture Hall in detecting traces and detecting the case are still trustworthy, and I believe that the Zhongzhong Torture Hall will be able to successfully find out the murderer of Engong." ”

Hearing Cheng Buji say this, Qiu Dongmao stopped talking and stood aside, but his eyes were fixed on Cheng Zhouhai.

Cheng Zhouhai skillfully began to inspect the appearance of Qiu Zhensheng's corpse, and finally stripped off the corpse's clothes, and there was a black and purple palm print on Qiu Zhensheng's chest, which made everyone subconsciously look at Chu Xiu.

With the announcement of the Dragon and Tiger List, some traces of Chu Xiu's exercises were also written into the Dragon and Tiger List by the people who were full of wind.

Many people in the rivers and lakes know that Chu Xiu's martial arts have an evil palm technique, which will leave such a mark on the person's body, and then the demonic flame enters the body, burning the other party's meridians and internal organs.

However, no one thinks that Qiu Zhensheng's death is related to Chu Xiu.

When Qiu Zhensheng died, Chu Xiuke was still in retreat in the Guanzhong Torture Hall, and Qiu Zhensheng was a great master who had stepped into the realm of the unity of heaven and man for many years, even if Chu Xiu was asked to kill him, he couldn't kill him, and there were many palms that could leave this kind of mark on the rivers and lakes.

Cheng Zhouhai cut Qiu Zhensheng's body open, only to see that Qiu Zhensheng's internal organs began to rot and blacken, emitting a strong stench.

Cheng Zhouhai frowned, he took out some strange tools and even medicine bottles and other things and examined them carefully, until a quarter of an hour later, he re-stitched Qiu Zhensheng's corpse, and checked the corpses of other people, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

Chu Xiu asked, "What is the result?"

Cheng Zhouhai said in a deep voice: "The cause of Qiu Zhensheng's death was that he was hit in the chest by a master with an extremely evil palm force, which directly shattered Cheng Zhouhai's meridians, injured his internal organs, and was killed by a palm.

There are traces of entanglement on the corpse, and the killer should not be a martial arts master, but a great master of the realm of heaven and man, but his strength is stronger than Qiu Zhensheng. ”

Everyone present was stunned, Cheng Zhouhai is not nonsense, if the murderer is not as strong as Qiu Zhensheng, then how did Qiu Zhensheng die?

After that, Zhou Hai then said: "The same realm of heaven and man, Qiu Zhensheng's death is too simple, the murderer's palm is the main cause of death, but the secondary cause of death is because Qiu Zhensheng has a chronic toxin called July Begonia in his body, or a slightly poisonous elixir."

July begonia is produced in Miaojiang, only in July every year when the moonlight will bloom, its pharmacology is complex, can condense the true qi, strengthen the meridians, is a good material for refining several kinds of healing medicine.

However, if the begonia is not refined, it is slightly toxic, and long-term use can slowly make the meridians in the body completely solidified, and people will not only be abolished, but also will make the true qi backlash, and even have the risk of serious injury.

The reason why Qiu Zhensheng was killed so easily was because he was a little slower when he shot because there were some traces of solidification in the meridians in his body.

For a martial artist of this level, taking a step slow is a dead end, and as a result, the opponent finds the opportunity and kills him directly with one palm.

However, Qiu Zhensheng's toxin is also very strange.

July Begonia is colorless and tasteless, strictly speaking, it is not even a poison, so poisoning is a subtle process, especially for a martial artist of Qiu Zhensheng's level, as long as he doesn't go all out, he can hardly find the abnormality, and even if he eats too much July Begonia, he will hardly be eaten by the true qi.

So I feel that this July Begonia seems to be for other people, Qiu Zhensheng Zhuangzi has the toxins of July Begonia in his body, especially Qiu Zhensheng's son Qiu Dongning, he is just Neigang, Gang Qi flows away, the meridians are not too tough, if you take a few more months of July Begonia, the waste person should be him. ”

Cheng Zhouhai finished saying everything he had detected in one go, and Chu Xiu also nodded on the side.

This time, thanks to Guan Siyu's foresight, he sent Cheng Zhouhai and the others out, otherwise if Chu Xiu was allowed to come, he would at most be able to see that Qiu Zhensheng was slapped to death by someone, and as for the toxin of the July Begonia, he would never be able to see it.

"Can you see the details of the murderer?" asked Chu Xiu.

Cheng Zhouhai hesitated for a moment and shook his head and said, "I can't see it from the corpse alone.

The time to start was too short, and the two sides were fighting before Qiu Zhensheng had already been killed before he could even make ten moves, so there was almost no trace left.

And the traces left by that palm should not be the signature martial arts of the current big factions or scattered cultivators in the rivers and lakes, it may be the martial arts created by someone or the martial arts that were opened from the ancient secret box and are not known to outsiders.

And I feel that the person who poisoned the murderer should not be the same person.

If the two sides are the same person, then the other party should be familiar with the characteristics of the July Begonia, knowing that this drug can only have some effects on a master of Qiu Zhensheng's level, and it cannot directly kill him.

As a result, the murderer risked Qiu Zhensheng's poisoning being discovered, and the July Begonia in Qiu Zhensheng's body had accumulated for a period of time before he started, according to my speculation, the murderer should not have known that Qiu Zhensheng was poisoned. ”

Chu Xiu touched his chin, he pondered for a moment and asked, "When was Qiu Zhensheng and the others poisoned?"

Cheng Zhouhai said: "About a month ago, but with Qiu Zhensheng's cultivation, the toxins of the July Begonia will not continue to deepen after ten days, and the toxins on other people's bodies continue to deteriorate. ”

Chu Xiu nodded, turned his head suddenly, and asked Qiu Dongmao, "Young Master Qiu, where were you a month ago?"
