Chapter 53: Speculation
"Hurry up and report to the Dao Hall, and the murderer will be arrested by the whole mountain gate!"
The person who spoke out was the second senior brother surnamed Wang of the Ancient Sword Hall, and he was extremely anxious, holding the body of the monk surnamed An of the Danyao Pavilion who had died. Tears welled up in his eyes, almost screaming.
Yu Si looked at the form of this son and deduced that his relationship with the deceased should be extraordinary, which shows that he is also a temperamental person who values love and righteousness. Afraid that he would appear inexplicably and cause unnecessary disputes, Yu Si floated away and hid in the distance.
"Yu walked on the front foot, and this murder occurred. It seems that Song Qinghao is not the only evil monk. Yu Si kept deducing in his heart.
"Song Qinghao killed the elder surnamed Shanmen first and seriously injured his senior brother, perhaps because he was afraid that the senior brother would capture him, which should not be premeditated. That poisoning the security law must have been well planned. This stealing medicinal herbs was for refining medicine, but he also killed the caretaker of the Pill Pavilion, and it was outside the Pill Pavilion. Was it Song Qinghao's accomplices? After stealing the medicinal materials, he was found by him? That murderer must be a monk of the Ancient Daomen, who could he be?" Yu Si pondered again and again, but there was no conclusion.
"No, Yu still has to understand a thing or two. Looking for Dongfang Yu? No. She doesn't know what she is, and she also has resistance to her. Looking for Ao Tianbo? No. He may not be familiar with his disciples. With ......" Yu Si's eyes lit up, and he got up and flew towards the shadows.
"Feng Daoyou, don't be surprised. Yu is also. Gently falling in front of Senior Brother Feng, who had just returned to the bamboo house, Yu Si said softly.
"Ah, Yu Daoyou, aren't you...... How did you come to Feng?" Senior Brother Feng asked with a fixed mind.
"Leaving before, Yu felt a little negligent. This is the way back to your door. In order not to startle the snake, I hope that Feng Daoyou will cooperate with one or two. ”
"yes. Yu Daoyou left, and someone was killed inside the door. Isn't it a little teacher...... What did Song Qinghao's comrades do? As long as Yu Daoyou needs Feng's help, he can just give orders. ”
"Feng Daoyou, can you tell Yu Mou about Elder An, An Protector and the guarding monks of the Pill Pavilion. For example, when they entered the mountain gate, did they have any involvement with each other. Also, may I ask Feng Daoyou, where is Senior Brother Wang sleeping? Can you take Yu to his residence to have a look at it at a convenient time?"
"No problem. As far as Feng knows......"
It turned out that An Protector and Elder An, as well as the caretaker of the Pill Pavilion, were brothers and uncles and nephews, and they had entered the Ancient Dao Gate three hundred years ago. Senior Brother Wang entered the ancient Daomen a hundred years ago.
Speaking of Anhufa, there is also a certain intersection with Senior Brother Wang. Senior Brother Wang later cultivated very hard, and was favored by a female disciple of An Protector. Later, they became Taoist couples.
This was also a happy event at the time, but on the night of the candles in the cave room of the two, a misfortune happened. Senior Brother Wang's Taoist companion had a sudden accident that night, and the fragrance disappeared.
An Hufa was furious and accused Senior Brother Wang of being victimized, but he couldn't find evidence, so he had to give up. In the end, Master An remembered his feelings for the apprentice and insisted on asking for the body of Senior Brother Wang.
Senior Brother Wang refused, and Uncle An refused to forgive. Ao Zhangmen stepped in to resolve the dispute. This sudden incident made the entire ancient road gate boil for a while.
"Senior Brother Wang, Hall Master Lu is looking for you for something. Yu Si carefully combed through the information sent by Senior Brother Feng, and couldn't help but feel that some time had passed. At this time, Senior Brother Wang was called away by other disciples. Senior Brother Feng took Yu Si into Senior Brother Wang's bamboo house.
Yu Si released his divine sense, wandered his gaze, and carefully probed.
I searched for a long time, but found nothing. Suddenly, an old jade porcelain vase under Senior Brother Wang's wooden couch caught Yu Si's attention.
This is a container that Senior Brother Wang has had for many years, and he said that it was the poison that hunted wild animals in his hometown before entering the mountain gate. Let the disciples of the Mountain Sect not be easily touched. Senior Brother Feng explained.
Yu Si was afraid of any poison, he gently grabbed the ribbon at the top, lifted the vial, and did not wipe the dust on it. Attach it with a powerful divine sense and rotate the cork on the mouth of the bottle.
After opening the vial, Yu Si sensed that the black-brown powder in the vial had accumulated eight points high. He identified the possible components in it by smell. Although he didn't determine what kind of poisonous powder this was, Yu Si made a certain decision.
"Feng Daoyou, is there any information about foreign affairs in Shanmen recently?" Yu Si and the others left Senior Brother Wang's bamboo house, and he asked thoughtfully.
"As the eldest disciple of the Ancient Sword Hall, Feng is really in charge of the affairs of this mountain gate. Three days later, the seven sects of the Yellow Domain will gather at this gate. This is a Yellow Domain gathering to determine that the head of the Seven Sects is the high-level of the Qianyang Island Pass, and then all the leaders will go to the Qianyang Island Pass together. ”
When Yu Si heard this, he knew in his heart. Without saying a word, after saying goodbye to Senior Brother Feng, he hid in the mountains and forests of the Ancient Daomen.
"The evil monk hidden in the Ancient Dao Gate must be waiting for these seven sects to gather. They used this to breed things that were not conducive to the Seven Sects, so as to cause the lack of high-level monks in the Qianyang Island Pass. It may be the way to clear the way for the head of the evil mountain gate. As for the killing of the elder surnamed An, the Dharma Protector, and the guarding monk of the Pill Pavilion, it should have nothing to do with this operation. ”
Yu Si huddled in a hidden cave, his mind clear.
"Suffered, Song Qing...... Qinghao is innocent!" Yu Si's heart "banged", and he was very reluctant to judge.
With all this, Yu Si recalled the causes and consequences one by one. He found that Song Qinghao was most likely framed. And all of this was planned by the evil monks who were hiding behind the scenes.
From the murder of Elder An, to the poisoning of An Protector, to Song Qinghao's food delivery, every link is a trick for Qinghao. In the end, it forms a superficial human stolen goods. Let Song Qinghao sit on the charge of the murderer.
The reason for this careful arrangement is that it can cope with Ao Tianbo's inspection. made Gu Daomen think that he had found the real murderer.
Or all this is related to his inexplicable coming to the Ancient Dao Gate, Yu Si knows that he is just simply helping the Gu Dao Gate Dan Dao Pavilion. But the evil ones don't know.
They probably thought that they had come to investigate the safety of the Seven Gates of the Ancient Dao Gate, so they could not cover up the murder of Elder An. This led to the fact that when he came, he stimulated the poison in the body of the Protector in advance and blamed Song Qinghao. The purpose is to dispel his doubts.
If they can leave the Ancient Dao Gate as soon as possible, it will not affect their actions to destroy the Seven Gates.
Second, the reason why these things happened was because the evil monk killed Elder An in advance, and he suddenly appeared at the ancient road gate.
In order not to be affected by major events, he shifted his attention and returned to the pass of Qianyang Island. The evil monk Fang regarded the protection of the Dharma and the guarding monk as his goal, not only to ensure that he could act in great affairs, but also to avenge his own personal vendetta. Such an act of killing two birds with one stone can be said to be a perfect combination and complement each other.
Then why did Song Qinghao steal the pill materials of the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion, and why did he attack his senior brother? The entire ancient Dao Gate only had one perverted left hand of Song Qinghao. If his previous series of observations were not wrong, was Song Qinghao also a member of the Evil Monks?
Yu Si could only comfort himself like this, he didn't dare to think of anything else that might exist. He couldn't accept the fact that Song Qinghao had died because of his own reasons.
And he personally "killed" Song Qinghao. In fact, whether it was manslaughter or not, Yu Si himself knew very well.
"Keep an eye on the people who have been to the hidden cave, and closely follow the trajectory of Senior Brother Wang's movements. ”
In the end, Yu Si determined the direction of his actions in his heart. He didn't have the courage to directly accuse Senior Brother Wang of being an evil monk, and he couldn't easily make a decision on one thing. What you want is solid evidence.
Hidden on the top of the waterfall in the hidden cave, the divine consciousness covers the waterfall side of the mountain, waiting for people to come. Although even if someone came to this secret cave, it did not mean that he was an evil monk and a murderer of An Hufa and others.
But the monks who could come here should be the object of his suspicion. If the person who came was Senior Brother Wang, then he would have eight layers of certainty to determine who the evil monk was.
A day passed, and no monk came. The fact that the people who had been guarded by the Pill Pavilion in the ancient road gate had been killed, which made people panic.
The entire mountain gate is under the terrifying atmosphere of grass and trees, and the wind is loud. Every monk entered and exited the mountain gate with trepidation.
The monks of the precept hall kept going in and out of various bamboo houses and caves, checking the possibility of murder by the corresponding monks one by one.
He questioned the monk himself about what happened when he was killed the night before, and whether anyone could confirm that he did not have the time to commit the crime.
On the second day, dusk was gone, and night fell. It was when I was thinking about the upcoming Seven Sects assembly tomorrow, and I was looking for a way to stop the evil monks from doing evil things.
A ghostly figure appeared at the bottom of the mountain and flew towards the cave behind the waterfall that flew down.
The figure came and went quickly. When Yu Si found out that he was haunting, by the time he got up and flew down to the bottom of the mountain stream, the man had already left the cave.
Yu Si didn't panic, he had already identified this person's information clearly. This person is none other than the monk surnamed Wang, who values love and righteousness.
With this discovery, Yu Si was reassured. As long as his whereabouts are locked tomorrow, he won't be able to make any big waves.
Out of caution, Yu Si still turned around and approached the Ancient Sword Hall, landing not far from Senior Brother Wang's bamboo house.
Yu Si's consciousness slowly covered the past, and the picture of Senior Brother Wang's bamboo hut appeared in his mind: Senior Brother Wang sat quietly on the futon on the ground in the bamboo hut, looking at a string of purple prayer beads in his hand.
His eyes were slightly red, like tears. He said: "Tianfeng, if nothing happens, after they all die, it will definitely cause an uproar." An Huide and An Tu have also been ambushed. After completing the mission, I will die for my husband without regrets, and I will be reunited with you at that time. ”
