Chapter 8: Investigating the Truth

The passage of time was something that no one could grasp, and soon, another half an hour passed, and this time the plain steward did not speak, but the deputy pavilion master did.

"It's time. The coercive voice was undoubted, and the moment he spoke, it had already echoed in Ye Hao's mind thousands of times.

"I see. At this time, Ye Hao also opened his eyes, and there was a hint of shrewdness in those eyes.

Hasn't this case of the theft of the marrow lobe been solved?

Seeing this, the deputy pavilion master sat down again, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you understand?" ”

"I understand the culprit who stole this marrow leaf, and I understand the ins and outs of this matter. I even understood that I was innocent below. Ye Hao's eyes flickered, swept over everyone, and said three understandings in one breath.

"You say. "The deputy pavilion master is simple and straightforward.

Ye Hao's eyes swept over everyone, and he said slowly: "This thief is very smart, so smart that he can almost steal it without knowing it, but it's a pity..."

Everyone didn't speak, waiting for Ye Hao's next words.

"First of all, let's first understand the time of the theft of the marrow washing leaves, according to Cha'an, because at that time, when the sixth and ninth medicine boys came to pay the herbs, it was too late, so that it was pressed back to the daily record, and in the past slow long night and day, when Cha'an recorded the storage, it was found that one of the marrow washing leaves was stolen. ”

"Then I am sure that the time of this theft is between the first hour of last night's unitary hour and the hour of tonight. ”

"This senior brother, what I said is not wrong, right?" This sentence was asked by Ye Hao to Cha'an.

Cha An nodded, and the deputy pavilion master asked suspiciously, "According to what you said, so much time has passed in between, where do you start to investigate?"

Ye Hao pondered for a while, and said confidently: "Actually, this marrow washing medicine has been stolen by someone when it was the hour last night. ”

"The thief is very clever, he knows all the habits of the Tibetan Medicine Building, and he knows that if the time is too late, it may be pressed into the warehouse tomorrow. ”

That's why he deliberately made it look like he was being stolen today, in order to mislead us and clear his own suspicions. ”

"You said that the thief is a person from the Fifth Peak?" The deputy pavilion master was a little angry, after all, it was not a very pleasant thing to appear a thief.

"Yes, he is indeed a member of the Fifth Peak. Ye Hao replied truthfully.

"But there are hundreds of people in the fifth peak, how can we find this thief?" At this time, the only one of the three major stewards who spoke showed the appearance of a young man.

"Don't bother, this thief is here right now. Ye Hao's eyes flickered, sweeping over everyone.

The young steward, who was very young, extraordinary, and dressed in purple robes, asked suspiciously, "You mean the thieves are among us?"

"That's right, it's among us. Ye Hao smiled coldly and continued: "In the fifth peak, not everyone knows that the storage record can be placed on the next day. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that. Cha An glanced at the deputy pavilion master, and some wanted to atone for his crimes: "What he said is not wrong, this storage record is recorded the next day, it is a confidential matter, it is related to our duty, and the only people who know about it are the three major stewards and the medicine boy." ”

"So the thief is one of the twelve. The deputy pavilion master snorted coldly, staring at the three major stewards and several medicine boys with sharp eyes.

"Nonsense. The plain steward looked extremely dissatisfied and said: "As the three major stewards, how can I dare to steal." ”

"No, you can. Ye Hao sneered and retorted: "As far as I know, except for Lord Gongsun who is building the foundation, the other people's cultivation is at the peak of the twelfth layer of qi refining, and they can build the foundation in one step, and this marrow washing leaf is the main medicine for refining the foundation building pill, as everyone knows, the effect of the foundation building pill can be increased, and the success rate of foundation building, you are just suspicious." ”

"Presumptuous, gibberish. "The three stewards were the first to be angry, while the young stewards were meditating.

"Hehe, how can I say it, the old man is not suspicious. At this moment, Gongsun Ru looked at Ye Hao with a smile and said happily.

"I only say that the stewards are also suspicious, but I don't say that you are the ones who steal. Ye Hao's eyes narrowed and said slowly.

"Don't be sloppy, tell the culprit quickly, you've wasted too much time. The Deputy Pavilion Master said in an impatient voice.

"Yes. Ye Hao responded, stepped forward a few steps, walked in front of Qiu Ming, stared at him, and said slowly: "Everyone should understand that there are strong people in the Tibetan Medicine Building, and the divine sense covers the entire building, if outsiders want to steal medicinal herbs, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but we ignore one thing." ”

"What's the matter?" asked the Deputy Pavilion Master.

Ye Hao looked at Qiu Ming and muttered, "What if the stolen herbs haven't been put in it yet?"

"Haven't put it in it yet?" The people were confused by Ye Hao's words.

"The Pavilion Master understands, you mean that the stolen marrow washing leaves have been stolen before they were stored inside. "The deputy pavilion master is old and refined, and after a few thoughts, he already knows.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Ye Hao nodded, and then continued in an unhurried voice: "And there were only three people who were able to enter the medicine building that day, Cha An, Qiu Ming, and Tan Shaoyu. ”

"As a person on duty that day, it is impossible for Cha An to guard and steal, otherwise he will be the first to be in trouble, so there are only Qiu Ming and Tan Shaoyu left. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, I believe Senior Brother Qiu Ming has already refined Qi at the peak of the twelfth layer. Ye Hao smiled coldly and asked the other party.

Qiu Ming is now in his thirties, and he doesn't know why he has actually reached the twelfth layer of qi refining, and his talent is not below that of ordinary disciples at all.

"Bold, Qiu Ming, this thief is actually you!" Ram Ru was the first to be angry, and shouted: "It must be that you have failed to build the foundation in the past few days, which has caused your breath to be unpleasant now, so that the idea of stealing arises, and the marrow washing leaves of yesterday have not been handed over, and this matter has been revealed, and you are dead." ”

Ram Ru shouted repeatedly, but Qiu Ming's expression was not nervous at all, but looked at Ye Hao with a smile on his face, as if he was laughing at the other party.

Seeing this, Ye Hao naturally smiled coldly, and said to the deputy pavilion master: "Actually, the person who stole the marrow washing leaves was not him. ”

"Huh?" Ram Ru was dumbfounded.

"Tell the truth. The Deputy Pavilion Master ordered.

"But the thief... It's him. As Ye Hao spoke, he suddenly stretched out his right hand and pointed his finger at Tan Feiyu.

Everyone exclaimed, some did not believe that the taciturn Tan Shaoyu was the culprit of stealing the marrow washing leaves?

"Where's the evidence?" the plain clothes steward seemed to have accepted some benefits from the other party, but he maintained it a little.

"The proof is what I just said. Ye Hao raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "He is very smart and designed all this." ”

"He knew about the Tibetan Medicine Building, and he would remember it in the evening, so he made a big fuss about this, and everyone should not have forgotten it, as the order of storing medicinal herbs. ”

"First he brought the marrow washing leaves of the day and delivered them, and then after he left, it was Qiu Ming who came to deliver it, and he deliberately made it impossible for him to steal, so that others could find Qiu Ming's body. Because of the order, others must think that Qiu Ming is the last one to come out, and he must have enough time to steal, and others can't find out whether he has a relationship or not, but it's a pity... You've miscalculated one thing. Speaking of this, Ye Hao's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam, staring at Tan Shaoyu.

"What is the matter?" asked Gongsun Ru, the only one in charge of the house.

Because Qiu Ming really wanted to do what he wanted to do that day. Ye Hao sneered: "It's just a pity that someone deliberately didn't deliver the marrow washing leaf before, and if he follows the previous plan, then both of them will be exposed, and he will undoubtedly not admit himself." ”

"I'm right, Senior Brother Qiu. Ye Hao looked at Qiu Ming with a smile, and everyone was looking at him at the same time.

Qiu Ming was silent for a moment, he smiled, inexplicably smiled, he looked at Ye Hao, and said slowly: "I have to admire, you are indeed very smart, there is nothing wrong, I really wanted to do it that day, but it's a pity..."

"It's a pity that you've changed your mind, because you've found that it might be easier to get this leaf in another way. Ye Hao took Qiu Ming's words and continued: "And this is what Tan Shaoyu didn't expect. ”

He didn't expect that there would be people who had the same idea as him that day, so Qiu Ming found out that Tan Shaoyu did not hand in the marrow washing leaf that day. ”

He knew, but he didn't report it, the reason was naturally that he wanted to get this thing, so he went to threaten the other party tonight, but Tan Shaoyu naturally wanted to kill people and kill his mouth, and his cultivation at the eleventh layer of qi refining was indeed okay.

But alas... That Qiu Ming reached the twelfth layer at this moment, and he was almost defeated in an instant, so he performed the light skills used by the people in the rivers and lakes, but the worldly light skills are naturally incomparable to the immortal cultivation techniques, and at the critical moment, he hurriedly broke into my room and placed the marrow washing leaves under the bed.

And at this moment, that Qiu Ming has also chased after him, and the spiritual power of the two of them has been consumed about the same, even if Qiu Ming still has a lot left, but in the face of Tan Shaoyu's fame stunt Eighteen Ways Tan Leg, he did not hesitate to cast an iron sand palm.

The two tricks collided, Tan Shaoyu was defeated, and was escaped with the help of the power of the shock, and at this moment, it was also the time when Cha'an reported the theft of the marrow washing leaf, and the three stewards immediately gathered everyone.

Because I went out at that time, the first target of the search was Zaixia, and the next thing, I'm sure you all understand. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone fell silent and did not make a sound, as if they were absorbing what Ye Hao said.

"Then you say that the person who stole is that Tan Shaoyu?" the deputy pavilion master snorted coldly and said dissatisfied.

"That's right, he is the culprit, and he is the one who single-handedly planned all this. Ye Hao frowned slightly, staring at Tan Shaoyu, after all, if he was innocently wronged, he wouldn't feel much happy on anyone's body.

Everyone's eyes were on Tan Shaoyu for a moment, and he was so focused at the moment.

Suddenly, Tan Shao smiled, as if he was laughing at Ye Hao, and he spoke unhurriedly: "Your ability to tell stories is stronger than your ability to make up stories." Saying this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Why do you say that I and Senior Brother Qiu Ming had a fight in your room and were defeated?"

"I've listened to your nonsense all night, but what about your evidence? How much you have said and done, it's just that you just want to wash away the fact that you stole the marrow lobe. Tan Shaoyu was dressed in a blue literati shirt, his aura was extraordinary, and when he spoke at this moment, he was absolutely sharp, and instantly disintegrated everything Ye Hao just said.

"Okay, I'll give you evidence" Ye Hao shook his head with a smile, his eyes were disdainful, he took out an item from his arms, and said loudly: "You shouldn't be unfamiliar with such things, Tan Shaoyu." ”
