"Could it be that Zhao Shaoyuan's disappearance was not due to the trade, but that he encountered something he shouldn't have seen and was silenced?!"
Hu Changqing frowned immediately.
"Is someone planning to take over Eagle Cliff? Just like the original Misty Mountain!"
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
The Eagle Cliff mountain protection formation has not been completed yet!
"Yu Liu, leave one team to continue the search, and the rest of you go back to Yingchou Cliff immediately to investigate those witchcraft murders first!"
Zhao Shaoyuan’s death is no longer important.
Hu Changqing attaches more importance to the safety of Yingchou Cliff.
As the supervisor of the academy, as long as Yingchou Cliff is preserved, there is no need to worry about not making money from the white jade.
Yu Liu immediately responded loudly, jumped down from the tree and told everyone to leave.
Before leaving, he patted the honest man's arm with satisfaction: "Yulin, well done!"
"Since you discovered the clue, the rest of the work is left to you."
Then he leaned closer and whispered, "The elders and I will investigate the murderer, and you should mainly look for the bodies, especially the body of Vice-Court Officer Zhao."
"The most important thing is the magic weapon on the corpse."
"It may contain the murderer's secret aura. If you find it, you must hand it over to me immediately!" Yu Liu reminded him seriously: "And it must be kept secret. Don't leak the news."
"Don't worry, Dean. If I really find it, I will give it to you as soon as possible." Yulin said honestly and seriously. His slightly clumsy temperament made people believe it.
"Haha, okay! I'm at ease leaving it to you!" Yu Liu laughed and hurried away with a group of people.
Yulin stood there, always keeping that honest smile on his face.
Lu Ku and others slowly came to Yulin and calmly looked at the backs of the people as they walked away.
"Our new vice-chancellor seems to have taken a liking to that heart-piercing nail."
"Ah……"
……
Inside the wooden building, next to the small waterfall on the hillside of Yingchou Cliff.
Chen Mu was restless and couldn't calm down for two days, fearing that his background would be discovered and Sun Jian would be attracted.
I always feel like a bolt of lightning will strike my head at the next moment.
"We can't just sit there and wait." Chen Mu frowned.
The inability to obtain information from the outside world in real time made it impossible for him to determine the situation.
"It's a pity that Hongxiufang didn't open a branch here. Even if there was a restaurant or teahouse, it would be fine."
In the past, he was always able to gain intelligence information from these places.
"The six brothers and sisters of Wushan?" Chen Mu seemed to be thinking about something.
He had no way of getting any information, but as the protagonists of this incident, Lu Ku and others would definitely find a way to keep an eye on changes in the situation.
If we can somehow get what the seven people got...
Chen Mu's eyes lit up: "The same heart spell synaesthesia!"
When synesthesia is activated, he can synchronize the five senses of seven people.
He could also see and hear what the seven people saw and heard.
"This is equivalent to having seven more pairs of eyes and ears!"
Moreover, among the seven, Shi Xian had practiced the secret method of listening carefully and was the best at listening in all directions.
The higher the level of the attentive listening method, the wider the scope of listening. Active detection is easy to be discovered, but passive listening has no hidden dangers.
Just like Chen Mu’s sixth-level listening method, as long as he hangs it on his ear, he can hear any movement within a radius of 500 meters without being discovered.
"Shi Xian's secret technique is only at level three, and his passive listening ability is poor."
"But I can lend her my Di Xuan Fa! Haha!"
Before, he returned the third-level giant spirit to Ai Ji, which brought with it a portion of his magic power, allowing Ai Ji to temporarily cross levels and perform secret techniques.
Similarly, Chen Mu can now lend the Di Listening Method to Shi Xian, allowing her to temporarily possess the power of the sixth level Di Listening!
Chen Mu started trying immediately.
Not long after, the sixth-level Di Ting talisman was successfully sent into Shi Xian's jade seed.
All kinds of noisy sounds then entered my mind.
"It's done!" Chen Mu was very excited.
But when he listened carefully, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Shi Xian seems to be...inspecting the courtyard!"
Something happened?!
He immediately listened attentively.
But the more he listened, the weirder his expression became.
Are the six Wushan brothers and sisters the inspectors of the Inspection Office?
Yulin has become a place where ten people are in charge?
The new deputy mayor asked the six brothers and sisters of Wushan to take the lead in investigating the disappearance of Zhao Shaoyuan?
This...let the murderer track down the murderer? !
Chen Mu: “…”
"That deputy mayor really has good taste."
"what!"
……
half a month later.
The weather was getting colder, and snowflakes even began to float on the top of Yingchou Cliff.
Next to the small waterfall on the mountainside, it was warm as spring inside Chen Mumu’s building.
The flames in the stove roared, heating up the floor heating pipes under the floor.
"Although it is immune to cold and heat, it is still warmer and more comfortable in the winter." Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction.
He had done floor heating in Lengyue Mountain before. Now with the ground being made into steel, he could rub the stove and heating pipes with his hands with just a little soil, which was more convenient.
He walked to the window happily, his energy was as strong as a windshield wiper.
From top to bottom, the white water vapor condensed on the jade windows was pushed away, revealing the scenery outside the window.
Chen Mu held a cup of hot Huiyuan soup with a spicy flavor in both hands, looking at the vast scenery below the mountain, and couldn't help feeling refreshed.
Over the past ten days or so, the situation at Yingchou Cliff has been changing dramatically.
Elder Hu Changqing conducted a vigorous investigation and actually discovered some Dongling barbarian spies.
However, due to the fact that the deputy mayor of the inspection office had a very good vision, the case of Zhao Shaoyuan's disappearance remained at a standstill.
Because of Elder Hu's attention to the strange death case at Yingchou Cliff, Yulin and others were transferred to provide support two days ago.
No one is paying attention to the disappearance of Zhao Shaoyuan and others.
"It's good that no one is paying attention to me." Chen Mu felt relaxed.
"We have to thank those barbarian spies."
Because of synaesthesia, he also got some information about the barbarian witchcraft and curse killings.
Most of those who died had shriveled bodies, their energy, blood and essence had been drained, the effect was very similar to Wu Ruo's secret method of capturing the soul and restoring the essence.
This is why the Inspection Office shifted its focus.
"I wonder what the inspection office has discovered today."
Chen Mu activated the same heart spell as he had done in the past few days, and at the same time passed the sixth-level listening talisman to Shi Xian.
"Is this also considered a magical radio that can listen to the truth from another world? Hehe..."
Chen Mu proudly took a sip of Huiyuan soup and happily lay down in the rocking chair next to the fireplace.
"If Shi Xian runs around a bit and expands his listening range, he can be used as a reduced-profile version of the Wind-Earth Device."

Next to the fireplace, Chen Mu was lying in a rocking chair holding a wooden cup, looking relaxed.
The grunting and coughing sounds of pigs, rabbits and black sheep came into my mind from time to time.
"This is not the kind of movement that the Inspection House should have."
"Lu Ku and the others didn't go to work today?"
Chen Mu suddenly realized.
For the past half month, Lu Ku and his six men had been busy in the Inspection Office. Chen Mu almost forgot that, under normal circumstances, inspectors in the Inspection Office could take three days off a month.
Today is the day when a few of us are having a break.
Just as I was about to cut off the synesthesia, Shang Huan's voice suddenly came to my ears.
Chen Mu's lips curled up slightly.
"The fat guy can't take it anymore, it's his due!"
In the past half month, Chen Mu would use the Seven Souls Return to Origin technique on Shang Huan every day.
His mind was depleted, and his energy and blood were also depleted. The fat man had lost a lot of weight visibly.
"Let's see if you dare to do so many tricks in the future!"
