Weicheng snow

The two sent Murong Qian and the seriously injured Shen Zhiyi back to the room, asked the female disciples who lived in the same room to take care of them, then turned and left to continue the investigation.

At that time, it was rainy and sunny, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and there were scattered stars in the night.There are red pistils floating on the lotus pond, and the fish in the pond grab a petal and bring it to the bottom of the pond. The two of them are walking beside, with the dark fragrance floating beside them, and the trees and flowers in front of them, but they are not in the mood to appreciate it.

As a bystander, Yi Baixue has his own unique insights into what happened during this period. He walked to the bridge in the middle of the lake, wiped the water stains on the handrail, leaned on it, and felt a little reluctant to leave. "The scenery here is pretty good, let's go here, there is no cover around, unless the ear is as good as Xiaoqian, otherwise you should not be able to hear."

Hua Shenchi also stopped, looking at the lake in a daze, "What do you think?"

Yi Baixue did not answer directly, but instead asked Hua Shenchi three questions, "First of all, I want to ask you, how many people have you prepared for casualties when you go down the mountain this time? Second, if the murderer is really related to you, Are you willing to do it? Thirdly... can the agreement I made with you be still counted? You can answer the first two or not, but I need a clear answer to the last point. If you If you regret it, I don't need to interfere with the Medicine Sect anymore."

Hua Shenchi sighed, and rubbed the center of his brows, "Although Murong's surname is common, it is not difficult for the Medicine Sect to find someone. If you are willing to use your black blood body to test the medicine for the Medicine Sect, I will ask for it, so You don't need to worry that I will go back on my word. As for the casualties..."

After a long silence, Yi Baixue quietly waited for Hua Shenchi's next words. After waiting for a long time, he finally reported his thoughtful answer, "This trip is related to the future status of the Medicine Sect among the Ten Sects, and it is related to the future of the Medicine Sect." Development is related to the mission of helping the world, so even if I arrive in the imperial city alone in the end, I will definitely live up to the entrustment of the master, so even if I am close to my relatives, I will personally kill them."

As soon as the words fell, Yi Baixue slapped Hua Shenchi's head on the center of Hua Shenchi's eyebrows, making Hua Shenchi stunned for a while.

Yi Baixue leaned against the armrest and laughed, "Don't be so serious. Don't you think it's too vain? You can't do things right now, and you can't keep people around you. Delusion to help the world? If you want me to say, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you see you are so young that you have a miserable face all day long, and everyone is afraid of seeing you, why bother?”

Hua Shenchi rubbed the red marks on the center of his brows, and said in a deep voice, "Nonsense. The great justice of the world is tied to the Medicine Sect, and the Medicine Sect will impose it on you in the future. If you are not in this position, you can say that you have nothing to do with yourself. I don’t want to argue with you about this right now, just tell me your thoughts on the murder case, don’t waste time.”

Seeing that Hua Shenchi couldn't make any jokes at all, Yi Baixue also lost interest, turned around and lay down on the fence, quietly looking at herself reflected in the pool water, "You are indeed what Xiaoqian said, very rigid. "

In Yi Baixue's thinking, there are three people he suspects, "First, Duanyue. Duanyue is the most likely murderer. Whether it's her strange words and deeds or Shen Zhi's past events, she seems to be very happy. He looks like a lunatic who has thoughts of killing because of missing his dead sister too much, but isn't the clue a little too obvious?"

"Duanyue doesn't seem to have the intention of covering up her behavior at all. If ordinary people want to set fire, they shouldn't have prepared early, so how can people see it? So I think the reason why she went to the burning courtyard should be a temporary idea. As for why it was improvised, I don’t know.”

The night wind blew across the lake, causing layers of ripples. Seeing that Hua Shenchi did not respond, Yi Baixue only sighed softly, "This second person is the spy who hasn't shown up yet. Although I don't know Who is he, there may be more than one person, but most of them are the owner of the needle and thread. In fact, I have been guessing whether it is a member of the Marrow Sect. The Marrow Sect members are never innocent people, and most of them are vicious people , In addition, they sent a letter to the royal family earlier, it is not impossible to keep an eye on you right now."

Hua Shenchi closed his eyes and snorted softly, "You even mentioned the marrow-eating cultists first, who else is more suspicious than them?" Yi Baixue looked at Hua Chenchi's profile, and Hua Shenchi also slightly Raising his eyes to Yi Baixue, the two looked at each other, were silent for a moment, and smiled lightly, which seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Yi Baixue stood up straight and wiped off the water droplets on her sleeves, "Well, I didn't think of this person at first, but thanks to what Shen Zhi told you so much, I realized that the person who harms others is the same as There is far more than one person who wants to kill someone. Who can win the attention of Duan Yue so much, and even leave when he is besieging the murderer?"

"Yeluo. Is there only Yeluo?"

Hua Shenchi smiled without saying a word.

Seeing his behavior, Yi Baixue knew that he had already figured it out, looked up at Hua Shenchi, and asked tentatively, "It is said that the Lingshan Medicine Sect mastered the ancient secrets, and like Sect Master Yunqing, he has already realized the heavens. The way of life and death. Only a few elite disciples beside Sect Master Yun Qing can touch and inherit such secrets."

"Back to life, how many people can get rid of this temptation? So I probably know the purpose of the spies, but I don't quite understand Sect Master Yunqing's intention to let you disciples go down the mountain alone. It is too cruel to call it a trial. Also, Answer me truthfully, is Yeluo really dead?"

Hua Shenchi shook his head, "I don't know."

Yi Baixue was a little surprised, "I don't know?"

Hua Shenchi looked into the distance, seemed to be recalling the scene at that time, and said after a long silence, "When the Tianyun Peak caught fire, I was retreating in the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion. The person was charred black, probably dead, and then the body was taken away by Duanyue, saying that she would be taken back to her hometown for burial. For this reason, the master specially approved her to take a three-month vacation, and went down the mountain to return home. I'll ask Shen Sheng when I get back."

As for the secret technique, Hua Shenchi didn't mention a word.

Having said all of this, the two of them had nothing to say, Yi Baixue waited for a while but couldn't continue, and wanted to go back to the house, but just about to leave, a female disciple's voice suddenly came from the shore, "Oh, I finally found it. Young Master Murong, why did you come here? How dare you run around in the dark when someone just died..."

As soon as he raised his head, he found Hua Shenchi and Yi Baixue standing on the bridge, "... isn't this Elder Brother and Young Master Yi?"

The four of them looked at each other from a distance across half of the lake, and Yi Baixue realized that Murong Qian had been nesting in the grass for an unknown amount of time, and immediately asked, "Xiao Qian, when did you start listening?"

Murong Qian wiped the tears off his face, stood up and stomped his feet, "Since you want to find my parents for me!" Then she ran away.Yi Baixue panicked, isn't this just starting from the beginning?Immediately, he climbed over the fence, skimmed across the water surface lightly like a dragonfly skimming water, chased after him in three or two steps, pulled Murong Qian into his arms, rubbed and rubbed him to comfort him, and finally Murong Qian stopped crying.

The female disciple slowly caught up from behind, and after standing still, she held her chest and panted for a while. Her breathing was very heavy, as if her throat was blocked by a stone, which was especially harsh in the night.Hua Shenchi came pacing, and frowned after hearing the sound, "Shen Shu? Why did you come after me? Where are the others?"

The female disciple who was called Shen Shu calmed down for a while, and then said softly, "Senior sister Shen Zhi suddenly went crazy and ran outside after waking up, and all three senior sisters chased me out. Arranged to stay and take care of the young master, unexpectedly the young master also ran out, Shen Shu was worried that something would happen to the young master, so he had to follow all the way."

Yi Baixue gave a "tsk" when she heard the words, and rushed back with Murong Qian in her arms, but in the end it was still a step too late.

When the four of them rushed back to the courtyard where the female disciples lived, there was already a circle of disciples outside. When everyone saw Hua Chenchi, they consciously moved out of the way. After learning that Shen Zhi died, and it was a miserable death.

Yi Baixue walked into the courtyard with Hua Shenchi, Shen Sheng and Duanyue were already there, although the two of them did not get on well with Shen Zhi, but after all they came from the same school, there is still a classmate friendship, Shen Sheng saw Hua Shenchi , then lead him to the tree.

It was a giant tree that was thicker than the ancient tree in the courtyard where Xiao Cui's body was found. Occasionally, the outline of the branches can be distinguished by the starlight leaking through the gaps, but the details cannot be seen clearly after all.

Shen Sheng's hand to take out the fire pocket stayed in his clothes for a long time, so long that Murong Qian thought he might not have brought it, and was about to call Yi Baixue to take out the fire pocket, but Shen Sheng suddenly said, "Young Master Xue, don't let Xiaoqian wear it." Look."

There seemed to be some panic on his face, even though he never showed this panic when he saw Xiao Cui's corpse, now it hangs naked on his face, making Murong Qian's heart thump unconsciously.Yi Baixue probably understood the meaning behind these words, and after seeking Murong Qian's consent, she hugged him in a different direction, "Don't be afraid, just don't look at it."

The moment Shen Sheng ignited the fire, everyone present except Hua Shenchi gasped, Duan Yue turned around and squatted down after watching it, and cried, Shen Sheng gritted his teeth, and extinguished the fire again Yes, besides fear, there was a bit of self-blame on his face, as if he felt that he couldn't escape the responsibility for Shen Zhi's death.

Yi Baixue put his arms around Murong Qian, the strength in his hands intensified unconsciously, he looked at Hua Shenchi, then at Duanyue, and finally decided to ask Shen Sheng, "When something happened, you and Duanyue should be together. Together?"

Shen Sheng nodded, "After the quarrel, I led my junior sister to the courtyard next door to relax, and I never parted on the way." Yi Baixue understood, and turned to ask the three female disciples who chased Shen Zhi back, but found that the three of them The person was not here at this time, so Hua Shenchi sent someone to find him.

While waiting, Shen Sheng seemed to think of something wrong again, and suddenly opened his mouth (emmmm this shield...) and confessed, "Half an hour ago, I heard someone calling Shen Zhi's name in the courtyard next door, but I still didn't Calming down, I didn't want to hear these two words, so I deliberately diverted my attention, now that I think about it carefully, I think I've never heard the voice of the person calling Shen Zhi!"

Murong Qian noticed that when Shen Sheng said this, Duanyue's crying paused unnaturally, but she squatted down behind everyone's back, no one could see the expression on her face at this moment, Murong Qian thought for a while, He didn't directly confront Yi Baixue, but only listened to Yi Baixue's continued questioning, "What kind of voice is it?"

Shen Sheng thought for a while, and was at a loss for words how to describe it, "Let's put it this way, it's very hoarse, as if there is a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat, and it's a woman's voice."
