Chapter 112 Is He the Murderer? I am a sharp sword, why should I avoid the edge of others!
Lingnan is mountainous.

A hundred miles west of Yongzhou City, there is a beautiful hill with clear water and green scenery. On the hillside, there is an elegant and grand villa.

The villa is filled with carved railings, jade bricks, pavilions and towers.

Amidst the clouds and mist, the main hall's light flickered, looking quite mysterious and ethereal.

But inside the store, there was an extremely bloody scene.

Young men and women were disemboweled, and their internal organs, along with their meridians and dantian (which did not exist in a fleshy form), were thrown into the alchemy furnace to be refined along with other medicinal herbs. In the end, no elixir was produced, but instead it turned into a purple gas that swirled around the hall along with the formation.

There were people and monsters in the hall, all of them inhaling the purple gas in big gulps, with extremely intoxicated smiles on their faces.

For a long time.

The purple gas in the alchemy furnace dissipated completely.

Everyone slowly regained consciousness and sighed in comfort.

"Comfortable!"

"Why don't you thank me now?"

"Hahaha! Thank you Chidi for the hospitality!"

They have seen too many secret methods of devouring flesh and blood to improve their cultivation.

But this method of grafting talents is the first time I have seen it.

This technique is truly amazing. Although it is not as good as practicing in the Great Sage Temple, how many people can enter the Great Sage Temple?
Besides...

According to Zhu Hui, this secret method and the influence of the Great Saint Temple do not interfere with each other, and the two can be combined to enhance each other.

If you practice in Lingnan for a few more years, as long as your cultivation base reaches the peak of the fourth level, you can go to the Great Sage Temple to meditate for a month.

Although it is still very difficult to break through the great demon realm.

But among the countless paths of cultivation, it is definitely a smooth road to heaven!
Lingnan is still the best!

It’s so messy!

"That's pretty much it!"

The young man called Chidi then revealed a satisfied smile, which looked extremely evil on his handsome and feminine face.

When Zhu Hui saw that they had finished, he said with a gloomy face, "Chidi! You shouldn't have come back. The city has been in turmoil recently. Qin Muye is indeed quite capable. He has already found the crux of the problem in less than a day."

Chidi laughed sneerfully: "Then let him catch it. Does he understand? A useless piece of trash who has nothing to do except relying on the afterglow of his father!"

Zhu Hui was silent for a while: "They have already found out the problem with the house-guarding talisman. All the people involved in the talisman shops have been arrested and are being tortured!"

"what!"

The Red Emperor's face suddenly changed, and he immediately denied it with a ferocious expression: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! This is the talisman master I hired at a huge cost..."

Zhu Hui shook his head and slowly uttered three words: "Golden Silence Powder!"

Chidi: "???"

When he heard these three words, the expression on his face froze.

After a while, the ferocious look disappeared.

Instead, he smiled happily and clapped his hands: "Fun! Fun! I didn't expect Qin Muye to be so capable."

The demon officials looked at each other, and finally a leader stood up: "Chidi, the limelight has been intense recently, you should hide away. There is still a long time to come, and Qin Muye is too fierce, so it is better to avoid the limelight for the time being and wait for him to leave..."

"Me? To avoid his sharp edge?"

Chidi smiled easily: "Even if I walk up to his face, will he dare to touch me?"

The demon officials: "..."

Chidi was quite relaxed. He picked up a broken limb from the ground, took a bite of it raw, and his face was covered in blood.

But after chewing for a while, he suddenly threw the severed limb to the ground and said angrily: "How many times have I told you that I like to eat old food, I like to eat old food!"

Zhu Hui shook his head helplessly: "The old ones have been eaten long ago, only..."

Chidi interrupted with a curse: "Then go catch them again! A bunch of rubbish!"

The demon officials: "..."

Zhu Hui's eyes darkened slightly: "No matter whether Qin Muye can find out the truth or not, the house-guarding talisman cannot be used. Chidi, don't be anxious recently, otherwise..."

"Snapped!"

A slap came directly on his face.

Chidi glared at him fiercely: "I provide you with good food and drink so that you can stand up at the critical moment! Zhu Hui, think carefully about where the great demon energy in your body comes from. Now you tell me to stop? What is there to be afraid of Qin Muye!"

There was a flash of anger in Zhu Hui's eyes, but he still suppressed it with difficulty.

Seeing this, Chidi laughed even crazily: "Are you angry? If you are angry, then attack me. Why don't you do it?"

Zhu Hui said calmly: "I only do the right thing. You shouldn't come back. Hide first!"

"hide?"

Chidi snorted coldly, "Why should I hide? Who dares to betray me? You are demon officials, and you are more cautious than me, a human! This case involves a lot of people. Even if it is really a done deal, involving so many demon officials and wealthy families, will the court dare to take action?"

Zhu Hui shook his head and said, "The imperial court has recently pacified the four barbarian states, strangled them with trade, and used demonology to open a loophole for punishing demon officials. The Great Saint Temple means that we should behave ourselves for a while and not be caught by them."

"how?"

Chidi's tone became more sarcastic: "Do you think he dares to offend all of us, or can he uproot us?"

Zhu Hui was silent: "..."

Chidi looked at him with disdain and said, "Don't worry! The poison in those bastards' bodies is hidden. If they want to die, no one can stop them. The lives of their wives, children and elders are in my hands!"

Zhu Hui rubbed his temples: "But as far as I know, there is a soul-detecting mirror in the clan. Qin Muye has experts under his command. I may not be able to save their lives, but what if they can stay for a few days?"

He is very familiar with the Soul-Detecting Mirror.

At that time, the demon official system had just been established and had not yet attracted many demon masters to join.

The royal family used the Soul-Examining Mirror to extract many innate spells from the souls of the evil beasts, and then took their essence and blood, attracting many similar monsters.

It can be said that the Soul-Appraising Mirror accounts for at least 30% of the credit for the development of the demon official system.

Even the innate magic can be extracted.

What's more, it's just a mere memory?
The Red Emperor sneered, "Even if they can hold out until the Soul Mirror arrives, so what? The clan's secret treasure can only be used by clan members who personally escort it. Qin Muye is a brainless reckless man, but clan members are not like that. As long as they see my face, they will retreat!"

Zhu Hui was almost laughing at his anger: "Do you really think you can get away with it?"

Chidi asked back: "Why? Do you think they dare to kill me?"

The demon officials looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even if they were caught, it would be almost impossible to kill them.

The identity of the person in front of me is really special.

Chidi sneered, "Don't worry! We did this together. The court always says that before the law, demons and humans are equal. As long as they don't dare to touch me, there is no reason for them to touch you!
Don't be scared!
Keep arresting people!

I see that you are not far from the Great Demon Realm, how can you give up halfway?"

A few words.

Full of incitement and deception.

Zhu Hui was also somewhat tempted, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted: "We need to stop for a while, and you also need to hide for a while!"

There was anger in Chidi's eyes: "Are you worthy of ordering me around?"

Zhu Hui refused to give in: "This... is what the Great Saint Temple wants!"

As soon as these words came out.

The entire hall fell into silence.

The demon officials looked at each other, and no one dared to say a word.

Although their cultivation base is not low, their status in Lingnan is the same.

But the two in front of us are the real chosen ones.

Zhu Hui is the youngest half-step great demon in the entire demon official group. He has awakened the blood of Zhu Jiuyin and has been favored by several temple priests of the Great Sage Temple. It is almost certain that he will break through to become a great demon and become a temple priest in the future.

The other one... was the one that Zhu Hui couldn't even fight back when he slapped him.

In Lingnan for so many years, he has been a crucial core figure relying solely on the talisman to protect the house and the alchemy furnace with his talent for refining.

Who dares to interrupt these two people who are arguing?

However, as soon as the three words "Great Sage Temple" came out.

Chidi was obviously not so manic anymore.

There was silence for a long time.

Zhu Hui said in a deep voice: "Chidi, you have to work hard. It is better to be free and unrestrained in Lingnan than to be confined. Only when you are well, can we all be well! After Qin Muye leaves, we can continue to live happily and unrestrainedly, isn't it wonderful?"

The anger in the Red Emperor's eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by helpless frenzy: "You are so cowardly, are you the monsters, or am I the monster? All right! Just for you, I will hide for a few days, you can repay this favor later!"

Hear this.

The demon officials finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Live daddy!

You finally listen!

Chidi glanced at everyone irritably and strode out of the hall.

Outside the palace gate, a beautiful woman with a quiet appearance had been waiting for a long time.

Chidi stepped forward, hugged her waist and buried his head in her chest.

After a long silence, he said, "Let's go! Let's go back to the city first!"

"what?"

All the evil officials were stunned.

Zhu Hui's temples were throbbing with veins: "Dad! You still want to go back to the city at this critical moment?"

Chidi waved his hands irritably: "What? I didn't take anything with me and hid in the mountains to become a savage? Don't worry about this. It's only been a short time. How could Qin Muye catch me? I'm leaving, don't bother me!"

talking.

He hugged the beautiful woman's arms tightly.

The beautiful woman smiled, then took him into the air and flew straight towards Yongzhou City.

Watch the two people leave.

The demon officials had complicated expressions.

Zhu Hui spat and glanced at them viciously: "Look at what you have done to this loser!"

……

Yongzhou Prefecture.

Back court!

"Still checking?"

Everyone looked at the box containing the Memory Gu, their faces terribly gloomy.

They naturally want to find out the truth.

But the appearance of this remembrance Gu reveals a hint of conspiracy everywhere.

People who are secretive usually have evil intentions. They feel vaguely.

As long as we know who the murderer is, even if we don't catch him, it will cause great hidden dangers.

Who is the murderer?
"Check?"

Feng Shuang swallowed and felt that the seriousness of the matter had far exceeded his expectations.

This is not a desperately hidden conspiracy.

Rather, it is a game under the watchful eyes of several major forces.

The emperor hopes that his people can find out the truth.

Those corrupt officials and powerful families tried their best to cover up the truth.

There is also a mysterious force that can't wait to help find out the truth.

He had a vague feeling that if he really knew who the murderer was, it would probably bring great trouble to Qin Muye.

But if only half of the information is investigated, Qin Muye will not be able to help him get promoted when he returns to Beijing.

If I can't get the position of governor, I won't be able to protect myself. It seems that I have no choice but to give up my ideals, resign from my post and leave Lingnan. But I have finally come here, am I willing to give up?
The water in Lingnan is too deep and too muddy.

Naturally, he wanted to go all the way in one go.

But he didn't want to drag Qin Muye into this, so he asked again: "Old Qin, are you still going to investigate? I'll listen to you!"

Qin Muye glanced at him.

[Main destiny: Danqingji]: A mortal body of seven feet tall, painted in blood.

[Fate Grade]: Fourth Grade (639/640)

[Annotation]: He was born with chivalrous spirit and died with chivalrous spirit. He was loyal to his heart and remained in peace in his ancestral land. He should have been recorded in history with his blood, but the dynasty was overthrown and the history was gone.

He vaguely felt that if he gave up halfway through the investigation, Feng Shuang would not resign from his post and leave Lingnan.

Then death is probably not far away!
He took a deep breath and said, "Check! What am I afraid of?"

Your fate, Danqingji, was changed by me!

How can I abandon you?
Hear this.

Li Xingluo's expression changed slightly, and she had already thought of a candidate in her mind.

But he did not stop Qin Muye, but just watched him draw out the dagger and cut the bone between Huang Ren's eyebrows.

Subsequently.

Just open the box and put the white and tender insects in it.

Upon smelling the odor of brain matter, the Memory Gu suddenly went crazy and kept sucking Huang Ren's brain matter like it was sucking tofu pudding.

Sometimes it changes to talking, sometimes it changes to talking.

At the same time, a light appeared on his body, and soon a shadow was cast.

Qin Muye called the clerk over and said in a deep voice, "I said remember, you remember, do you understand?"

"Yes!"

All the clerks nodded and stood ready.

To use the Recall Gu normally, just place it between the eyebrows, and the user will actively recall the past and the corresponding image will be accurately projected.

But if you forcefully search your memory, all the images in it will come flooding back, from the moment you were devoured all the way back to the womb.

So the picture is very messy!

However, there were two masters whose souls had reached the peak of the fourth level, so their observation would naturally not be disturbed.

"stop!"

Li Xingluo quickly pinched the body of the insect, and the swallowing movement suddenly slowed down a lot, and the picture also slowed down a lot.

Everyone was staring at the light screen intently. Huang Ren had just sent a few drawn house-guarding talismans to a secret room, which must be processed with golden powder by a master.

Huang Ren then carried the heavy box and walked towards another room.

Everyone stared intently, they all knew that the next person Huang Ren would meet was most likely the mastermind behind the incident.

soon.

The door was pushed open.

A handsome and feminine face was revealed.

"Why is it him!?"

Feng Shuang all exclaimed in surprise, and their faces suddenly became extremely ugly.

There was even a hint of fear in the shock.

Li Xingluo, who was standing aside, also looked extremely gloomy.

Qin Muye was a little curious: "Do you know him?"

Feng Shuang's chest rose and fell violently, showing how restless he was. He tried for a long time to suppress the urge to tremble. He gritted his teeth and said, "If it was by chance yesterday, we should have been able to see this person in Prince Yong's Mansion!"

Bai Yuji: “???”

Qin Muye: “???”

The crown prince of Yong.

Baby Lee! ?

Gan!
Qin Muye admitted that he was a little confused. He never thought that the biggest mastermind behind this case was actually Li Baobao.

How could such a heroic figure be like Li Rui, the Grand Chancellor, to have such a grandson?
Things are getting a bit serious!
He had no doubt that even if the mastermind was Crown Prince Li Zhixuan, the emperor would skin him alive without hesitation.

But...it's hard to say about Baby Li!
Li Rui is the absolute backbone of the royal family and even the entire Daqian. He is worthy of everyone except his son Li Gong.

Li Gong was weak since childhood and lacked his father's company, so he got married early and had children.

He was less than fifteen years old when he had the child.

Twenty years have passed, and there is still only one son.

Although Li Baobao is twenty years old and has had sex with many women, none of them got pregnant.

It can be said that Li Baobao is Li Rui’s only hope to continue his bloodline.

Needless to say, Li Gong doted on this son.

Although Li Rui had only met his grandson once, he definitely felt a lot of love and guilt for him.

You know, the name Li Baobao was chosen by Li Rui himself!

If Li Hong wants to kill Li Baobao.

Given Li Rui's character of always caring about the country, he probably won't say much.

But if the only bloodline of the Grand Master is killed, everyone in the royal family will probably be in panic.

Even if Li Rui didn't show his unhappiness at all, the people below might still imagine it.

You know, Li Rui has been following the emperor for many years, and many civil and military officials have close relations with him, and among them there are even many who are close to the evil officials.

If these people find an opportunity...

Let’s take a step back.

Li Rui suppressed all his dissatisfaction.

The killing of Li Baobao did not cause anyone to rebel.

Can……

Yes!
We can capture him but not kill him, bring him back to Kyoto and lock him up in seclusion, so that this matter can slowly die down.

But if Li Baobao was not killed and not even convicted, why would those corrupt officials and aristocrats fall?
I guess only a few people who take the blame will be killed.

Such a shocking case ended with much fanfare and little action.

Not only did Feng Shuang fall into the quagmire filled with poison.

This trip was in vain.

But if I kill...

Where is Li Xingluo?

Li Rui is not a saint, and Li Zhixuan is not a complete waste.

In the past, Li Rui could choose not to participate in the fight for the crown prince, but this may not be the case in the future. After all, Li Zhixuan is not a waste. Li Rui has praised him many times, but just as much as he praised Li Xingluo.

Li Xingluo is now a sharp sword. He has already offended too many people. If the royal family stands against Li Xingluo again.

I'm afraid this sharp sword will most likely be discarded after use.

"This……"

Feng Shuang's face turned pale. He finally understood why He Li tried to deal with other dirty things cleverly, but ran away so quickly this time and even ran to his residence at night to persuade him to leave quickly.

It is true that he is a young and inexperienced person.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't understand politics at all.

He knew very well that Qin Muye was now bound to the Diji Mansion. Even Wu Lu, a young master at the peak of the fourth rank, had transferred from the Diji Mansion and still maintained close contact with the Diji Mansion.

The consequences of this incident are terrifying!
Will they...give up?
Li Xingluo looked extremely unhappy, but he still said, "My Lord, do you want to investigate?"

Qin Muye asked: "What do you think?"

Li Xingluo said in a deep voice: "You are the lord, I will listen to you!"

Qin Muye calmed down a little, glanced at Feng Shuang who was looking pale beside him, and took a deep breath: "Investigate! At worst, send him to Kyoto and let His Majesty decide!"

"But my lord, do you still remember the words His Majesty repeatedly said before you left?"

Li Xingluo looked at his slightly changed expression and took a deep breath: "This trip to Lingnan, either we will fail miserably and return to Kyoto, or we will catch the main culprit and torture him to death on the spot!"

Qin Muye: “…”

Makino, just fly without worry and bear the consequences if anything goes wrong?
The emperor might not be unaware of who is behind the scenes, so what does he mean?
Li Xingluo's eyes sank slightly. It was only now that she realized why Li Rui used Bai Xiao to hint at her knowing his identity at the farewell banquet.

Even when he went to Prince Yong's Palace yesterday, Li Gong repeatedly smiled at his guard in public.

These two.

I'm afraid he already knew what Li Baobao had done.

So... they're threatening me?
How deep is this great leader hiding?
What does the emperor mean?
My father has known about this matter for a long time. He thinks that Li Rui has raised a beast, or that he has developed ulterior motives?
Do you need to eliminate hidden dangers yourself?

But if he eliminates the hidden danger, what if he is targeted by Li Rui?

I will continue to be reused because I have proved my sharpness.

Or will he be hidden away in order to appease Li Rui's emotions?

Li Xingluo had no way of judging.

She looked at Qin Muye's hesitant look and knew that he was considering the Emperor's Mansion.

He glanced at Feng Shuang, who was pale but silent, and roughly understood his predicament.

So he took a deep breath and said, "My Lord! Don't worry about the princess. The princess is a sharp blade. Why should she avoid others' blades? Make a decision quickly. I will hit you wherever you point!"

Qin Muye glanced at the screen that was still projecting.

He said in a deep voice: "Then kill!"
