Returning from the Heavenly Machine, Su Mu saw that Ling Huayin had been studying the Great Wilderness Atlas, and couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you investigating something?"

Ling Huayin didn't raise her head, flipped through the pages one by one, and said: "It's nothing for you, the master is busy today, you can go and practice the sword by yourself." ”

Su Mu saw that Ling Huayin didn't have much to take care of herself today, thinking that it was a very important thing, so she exited the study with interest and quietly closed the door. But without Ling Huayin accompanied, he also felt that it was not interesting to practice swords alone, so he simply slipped out of the Qingluan Hall to hang out in various places.

Although it was not curfew time, there were very few disciples who went out and walked around, and Su Mu didn't like to deal with strangers, so he felt at ease when there were few people. After simply familiarizing himself with the directions of the various places in Xianze Palace, Su Mu saw that it was getting late, so he planned to go back. On the way back, I happened to see a somewhat familiar figure, when I first arrived, Su Mu didn't know many people in Xianze Palace, and he recognized it as Bai Zhen at this glance. Su Mu thought that since he saw it, he still stepped forward to say hello. However, Bai Zhen looked left and right, and glanced at Su Mu with a vague look, and he didn't know if he saw him, so he walked towards the house in front of him, and disappeared behind the house after a while.

As soon as Su Mu walked to the side of the house, he heard Bai Zhen's voice coming from the back of the house.

"Didn't you tell you not to come to me again. Bai Zhen's voice sounded a little angry.

Immediately followed by a man's voice: "I really want you to think so hard, I feel itchy when I don't see you for a day." ”

"There are so many women in Xianze Palace, why do you have to pester me?" Bai Zhen was a little anxious.

"They are them, you are you, and only you can haunt me. The man continued to speak sexually explicit words.

This person spoke extremely slowly, coupled with his unique gentle voice and lines, Su Mu suddenly fell to the ground with goosebumps when he heard it, thinking that this was a collision that should not have been bumped into, or it was better to leave quickly before they found out.

There was another sound of rustling behind the house, only to hear the man call "Zhen'er", and the two seemed to be pulling. Su Mu hurriedly pulled out his legs and left.

"Stop!"

As soon as Su Mu took a few steps, a man shouted in the air, Su Mu didn't go, and he didn't stop.

I saw a sneaky figure flashing in front of the house in front of Su Mu, Su Mu's mind turned very fast, and he immediately judged that the sentence was said to this person, and chased after him without thinking for half a minute.

Ling Huayin was still seriously grinding the Great Wilderness Atlas, when suddenly a disciple came to Qingluan Hall and told Ling Huayin that something had happened to Su Mu and asked her to hurry over and take a look.

When Ling Huayin heard that Su Mu had an accident, her face changed greatly, and she didn't have time to pick up the book when it fell on the ground, so she hurriedly followed the disciple and left.

"Which other elder is here?" Ling Huayin hurriedly walked in.

"Master Bai Zhen is also there, because it is far away from the other elder halls, and he has not alarmed the other elders, so he has come to inform you, the sword elder. ”

Ling Huayin was worried about Su Mu in her heart, and she didn't dare to delay a step, and after hurriedly arriving at the place that the disciple said, she saw that there were several disciples who were patrolling the night, and they were surrounding Su Mu in the middle. Su Mu stood with his sword in his hand, Xu had been with them for a long time, and his face was impatient. There was also an unconscious disciple lying beside him.

When the disciples saw Ling Huayin coming, they all consciously made way for Ling Huayin.

"Elder Swordguard, you're here. ”

Ling Huayin walked quickly to Su Mu, Su Mu saw her, and immediately shouted, "Master!"

"What's going on?"

The disciples next to him wanted to interject, but Ling Huayin didn't look at them, only looked Su Mu up and down, for fear that he would be hurt by them, "Xiao Mu, you speak for yourself." ”

"Master, that's right. Just now I was about to go back, and a few of them ran after this person, and I just happened to see it, so I also chased after him, but as soon as I caught up, this person actually lay on the ground for some reason. Several of them not only said that I had knocked me unconscious, but also said that I had injured several other disciples who were patrolling the night. The apprentices obviously didn't do anything, helping them catch the thief, but they were bitten back. Su Mu said.

Ling Huayin glanced at the night patrol disciple standing in front of her again, and then stepped forward to check the disciple's injuries on the ground, which made her quite shocked.

Seeing that Ling Huayin's face was not right, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to take a look, and the night patrol disciple led by him probed the disciple's snort and exclaimed, "He's dead!"

"Su Mu, not only did you hurt someone, you also killed one!"

Su Mu glared at the person who spoke, and hurriedly clarified with Ling Huayin: "Master, I don't. ”

Ling Huayin looked at Su Mu and said, "Don't be afraid, I believe in you as a teacher." Then he said to the disciple who spoke, "Have you seen with your own eyes that Su Mu injured someone?"

"This ...... Not really. ”

Ling Huayin turned to the others again, her tone was still cold, "What about you?

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to talk nonsense.

At this time, Bai Zhen, who was standing on the side, stepped forward and spoke: "Senior sister, let's let this disciple go down first." Now that someone is dead, it is better to tell the master, and Su Mu's matter will be decided. ”

"Of course, I have to tell you, but Su Mu's innocence must be resolved now. Since none of you see that Su Mu did it, why do you say that the murderer is him?" Although Ling Huayin's tone was flat, her eyes revealed a majesty that no one dared to violate, and the disciples did not dare to say anything one by one.

Su Mu suddenly thought of something, and said to Ling Huayin: "By the way, master, if I hurt anyone today, Master Bai Zhen can testify for me!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Bai Zhen.

Bai Zhen obviously didn't expect Su Mu to let her testify, she was a little stunned, smiled and said, "Why did Xiao Mu say this?"

"When I went back today, I saw Uncle Bai Zhen and a senior brother talking behind the house, and if I really hurt someone in the run, as they said, then I shouldn't be there. Su Mu looked at Bai Zhen on the side.

Bai Zhen's face changed, and at this time, a disciple behind her also lowered his head and stood backwards intentionally or unintentionally. However, she couldn't escape Ling Huayin's eyes, she glanced at the disciple, and said to Bai Zhen: "Senior sister, what Xiao Mu said is the truth?"

Bai Zhen's face suddenly became embarrassed, and he smiled: "Yes, I am indeed telling a disciple some things today, I may not have noticed Xiao Mu, otherwise I would not have let Xiao Mubai be wronged." ”

In this way, Xiao Mu is innocent. Ling Huayin glanced at the disciples who were patrolling the night again, and said coldly: "You have lost someone, don't buckle the basin when you see a person." Explain tonight's matter to the head of the house, I will take Xiao Mu back. ”

"Xiao Mu, let's go. ”

When Su Mu was leaving, he saw that Bai Zhen's expression was a little strange, and he was really a little apprehensive in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that he was trying to prove his innocence, he wouldn't have said that he had inadvertently met Bai Zhen and a man tonight.

Back at Qingluan Palace, Ling Huayin asked Su Mu: "Xiao Mu, what you saw tonight, is it really that disciple suddenly fell to the ground during his escape?"

"Yes, master, the apprentice was about to catch up with him, but I didn't expect him to fall down by himself, I went to shake him twice, senior brother, they also checked, he was not dead at that time. ”

"Not true. Ling Huayin shook her head and said, "That disciple has long lost the breath of a living person, and he doesn't look like he just died." ”

Su Mu was taken aback: "Ah, could it be that the corpse is running?"

Ling Huayin seemed to be awakened by him, and her face suddenly became solemn.

"Master, thank you for saving me today. Su Mu smiled.

"You are my apprentice, I won't save you, who will save you, be careful in the future, don't be misunderstood again. Ling Huayin reminded.

Su Mu nodded again and again, "Mmmm, I know the master." Su Mu hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but ask: "Master, is it taboo for men and women in Xianze Palace to be happy with each other? ”

"Why do you ask?" Ling Huayin's eyes became very strange, as if Su Mu had said something that should not be said.

"Uh...... It's nothing, the apprentice asked casually. ”

Su Mu thought that Ling Huayin's expression meant that she didn't want to answer, but she didn't expect Ling Huayin to say: "As long as it doesn't exceed the rules, Xianze Palace has always not prevented men and women from being happy." ”

Su Mu's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he was a little relieved.

After Su Mu left, Ling Huayin returned to the study and saw that the Great Wilderness Atlas had been put on the table at some point, as if someone had come. Ling Huayin called out to Eluo, but she didn't see Eluo respond.

On the second day, the head of the sect, Shan Liqun, summoned Ling Huayin and Su Mu, except for a few elders and Bai Zhen, the rest of the night patrol disciples who had seen last night were also there, including a few who were injured.

According to the oral accounts of the injured disciples, last night on the way to patrol the night, they happened to meet a disciple staying at the barrier, behaving sneakily, so they stepped forward to question, who knew that the disciple started a fight with them without saying a word, and ran away after hurting people, fortunately another team of people happened to arrive, so they went to arrest the disciple, who knew that the disciple not only cultivated in order to obtain, but also used the moves that were not from Xianze Palace. And according to the investigation, the disciple who died last night was just an ordinary level disciple with mediocre qualifications, and he couldn't beat a few disciples who were patrolling the night at all, let alone injured several people. If he is convicted of the murderer, it is really difficult to convince the public.

Looking at the entire Xianze Palace, there were only a handful of people who practiced the moves of other sects, except for Ling Huayin, who was transferred later, only Su Muhui practiced the moves of other sects.

When Su Mu heard them say this, he knew that they still suspected that he had done it, and wanted the head of the family to come forward to punish him.

He snorted coldly and asked, "Didn't you fight with him?"

"I, we didn't see the man's face clearly, it was too dark at that time, and the man was so weak that he didn't dare to look at us. ”

Ling Huayin's face was not very good, and she turned around and asked Shan Liqun: "Boss, what do you think should be done in this matter?"

Shan Liqun knew that Ling Huayin must be annoyed by asking this, so he secretly pondered the stakes, and said: "Su Mu is your disciple, you know his character better than your disciples, if you insist that it was not Su Mu's doing, then who the real murderer is, you must find out as soon as possible." Now there is no definite evidence to prove that it is Su Mu's injured person, so don't guess wildly. ”

Shan Liqun's words are still very effective, and when the disciples saw him say this, although they were unwilling, they were not good at saying anything.

"Master, I have something important to tell. Ling Huayin wanted to tell Shan Liqun about the suspicions and enchantments that she had discovered on the dead disciple last night.

Shan Liqun nodded, and after telling the disciples to disperse, he let a few elders stay.
