The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chu Yunxi said: "So, the murderer is also from the Wanjian Sect?"

Wen Rulan nodded, "That's right, the deceased must have recognized the identity of the murderer, so he was killed to silence him. He said that you can't be worthy of your master by doing this. I just asked Xiaowei, in the Wanjian Sect, all the current disciples are registered under the name of Wan Luochen, but Wan Luochen no longer teaches martial arts in person. Several senior disciples in the sect teach on their behalf. So the master mentioned by the deceased refers to Wan Luochen."

Chu Yunxi analyzed, "If that's the case, then the murderer must have been doing something in the ancestral hall that was detrimental to the sect, and was seen by the deceased, so he asked such a question. The murderer is very skilled in martial arts, and should be a top master in the Wanjian Sect. Such people should not be widespread."

"That's right. From what I can see, that man's martial arts is on par with Bai Yu's. In the Wanjian Sect, there are no more than ten such people." Wen Rulan looked across and the others followed his gaze. It was Wan Ruwei over there, talking to Old Madam Wan.

Chu Yunxi saw Xiao Wei hanging her head, with a tearful expression, looking pitiful, so she couldn't help but ask again: "You haven't told me yet, why are you with Xiao Wei?"

Wen Rulan sighed, "Why are you still so gossipy? I saw someone was killed, and I thought the Wanjian Sect would be in chaos soon, so I wanted to hurry back, but on the way back I saw Xiaowei walking alone outside, and I thought it would be good to have one more witness, so I pretended to be walking too, and ran into her by chance, then we chatted for a while, and then came here together."

Pretending to meet by chance? Chu Yunxi covered her face, "You couldn't have seen that the girl was so sad for you and couldn't bear it, so you wanted to comfort her, right?"

Wen Rulan didn't care about Chu Yunxi's teasing. He had good hearing and heard Old Madam Wan asking Wan Ruwei why she was still staying with him so late. Wan Ruwei lowered her head and said that she couldn't sleep, so she went out for a walk. While walking, she ran into him who also couldn't sleep.

Wan Ruwei told Old Madam Wan that she and Master Wen had been chatting for a while and they had been together the whole time. The place was far away from the ancestral hall and Master Wen did not have time to commit the crime.

Madam Wan naturally believed her granddaughter's words, but she warned her to be careful about the impact. A woman's reputation is very important. How could it be considered improper to stay up late at night with a man?

Wan Ruwei lowered her head and said nothing, obviously unwilling to agree.

Although Old Madam Wan was angry that her granddaughter threw herself at Wen Rulan, she could do nothing about it. As a grown-up girl, she could not be kept home. What could she, as a grandmother, do? However, Wen Rulan's suspicion was cleared. However, they did not know that with Wen Rulan's lightness skills, she could walk around the Wanjian Sect in a short time with just a few jumps.

Chu Yunxi didn't hear what the grandparents said. She was still thinking about the case. She asked Wen Rulan, "Was the murder weapon originally in the ancestral hall?"

At that time, she saw a scabbard not far away on the ground in the ancestral hall, and on one side of the altar was a sword rest, which was empty. Chu Yunxi speculated that the murder weapon that killed the young man was the sword originally placed on the sword rest.

Wen Rulan thought about it carefully and shook her head, "When I saw it, the murderer was holding the sword. After killing the person, the murderer threw away the hilt. But the murderer was very cautious and wore gloves on his hands. There should be nothing to find on the sword."

What on earth did the murderer go to the ancestral hall for? What was there in the ancestral hall that was worth the murderer's risk?

I'm afraid I can only ask Madam Wan about these things.

At this time, everyone had finished questioning, and Madam Wan gathered everyone together again and said, "There are now 39 people who don't have time to witness. According to Yan Xu, it is certain that the murderer is a man, and the women present can be ruled out of suspicion. The remaining disciples who have time to witness will be divided into groups and these 39 people will be temporarily guarded. In order to avoid unfair results, I would like to invite Miss Chu to investigate the case together. In this way, no matter whether the murderer is a disciple of our sect or a distinguished guest present, we cannot cover up. I wonder if Miss Chu is willing?"

Chu Yunxi looked at Xiao Mubei and the others and said, "Madam Wan means that my brother and the others are also suspects, right?"

They told the people of Wanjian Sect that they were brothers and sisters or senior and junior brothers and sisters. The elder brother was out escorting the escort, and the younger sister happened to be coming to southern Xinjiang to visit relatives, so they came together.

The people from the Wanjian Sect did not raise any suspicion. As for the Purple Guards, Wen Rulan had already sent out a message asking them to hold back for the time being. Now they were lurking on the outskirts of the Wanjian Sect, waiting to be deployed.

Madam Wan said, "Because you are all brothers and servants, you cannot be witnesses to each other's time. Please forgive me. I will ask you to stay in the room first. When the truth is found out, I will definitely prepare wine to apologize."

Xiao Mubei nodded to Chu Yunxi, and then said: "Old Madam, we don't have to go out, but my Senior Brother Wen's suspicion has been cleared, right? Can he go with my little sister? This way we can rest assured."

It turned out that he had also heard what Madam Wan and Wan Ruwei said just now.

Madam Wan thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement, but then she turned to Wan Ruwei and said, "Go back to your room and don't get involved in this matter."

Wan Ruwei was unwilling, but she did not dare to disobey her grandmother's order, so she had to go back reluctantly.

The other disciples also divided into groups to look at those who were suspicious.

Chu Yunxi and Wen Rulan stood with Madam Wan. Chu Yunxi said, "Madam, since we are investigating the case, I have a few questions. Can I ask you?"

Madam Wan was leaning on a cane, slowly walking towards the ancestral hall. Her back seemed to bend a little, and her voice was also full of fatigue. "Miss, you can ask as much as you want."

Chu Yunxi felt a little reluctant, so she said, "It's getting late, Madam, why don't you go back and rest first, and send a trusted disciple to follow us. I'll take another look at the scene first, and then go and ask those people just now. If there are any doubts, I will write them down first and ask Madam tomorrow, how about that?"

Old Madam Wan really felt that she could not hold on any longer. She was too old to stay up late at night, and after staying up so late in the night, she felt as if all the bones in her body were falling apart.

So he did not refuse and said, "In that case, I will trouble you, young lady. Let my personal maid Xiang Ming follow you. She has been with me for a long time, and you can ask her many questions."

Chu Yunxi agreed, so Madam Wan called Xiang Ming over, saying that she was a personal maid, but Xiang Ming was already over 30 years old. Because she had never married since she followed the old lady, everyone in the sect called her Aunt Xiang Ming. At this moment, she bowed to Chu Yunxi dignifiedly, "Xiang Ming greets the young lady."
