Chapter 127 Emergency Response Suspected Target
With a buzzing sound, Zhong Yan's brain went blank for an instant.
Shen Lanxin is dead!
The Foundation Building family, direct bloodlines, core disciples, people who were willing to use their spiritual veins to marry them, are now dead in their own mansion.
This is too big a deal!
Zhong Yan took a deep breath, regained his ability to think, and immediately took out three 'concentrating symbols' to imprint the indoor scene.
Then he sent a message to Yu Qingyao, asking him to secretly seal off the entire mansion.
The maid Xiaotao, with a pale face, knelt down in front of Shen Lanxin's corpse, at a loss, she turned her head and cried out in a crying voice:
"Uncle, Master Zhong, what should we do? How could Miss be killed?"
During her accompanying service, the young lady died, so there was no way for her to survive.
Wiping away her tears, she got up and stared at Zhong Yan: "Miss died here, you have to take full responsibility! Maybe it was someone from your family who did the murder!"
"Idiot! Do you want to be silenced?"
Zhong Yan stared coldly, already irritable and annoyed in his heart, wishing he could slap her to death with his palm.
The maid Xiaotao's face tightened, her lips moved and she dared not speak any more.
"You brand the crime scene yourself!"
After saying a word, Zhong Yan began to look around.
The room is a little messy.
The two maids were lying on the edge of the big tub, lifeless, and next to them were two wooden buckets filled with hot water, the water inside was still steaming.
Two bamboo baskets containing petals were overturned, and the petals were scattered all over the floor. There were still some water stains and wet footprints on the wooden floor, which could be seen to belong to Shen Lanxin.
And Shen Lanxin was lying on her side more than two meters away from the bathtub, her white and smooth body was wet, with no other scars except for the bloody hole between her eyebrows.
In front of the bathtub was a table for storing clothes, which was broken into pieces of wood, and there were several sword marks from the attack on the wall...
Obviously, before Shen Lanxin was killed, she found something abnormal, she came out of the tub to resist, and after a non-violent fight, she was instantly beheaded by the prepared murderer.
Zhong Yan stepped forward, knelt down, and massaged the body everywhere. It was still warm, and he had just died not long ago.
"When did you leave?"
The maid Xiaotao hurriedly said: "When I was about to die, I used my movement skills when I went to find you. When I came back, I walked with you. It will take about a stick of incense before and after, maybe a little longer."
"See if there's anything missing."
"oh!"
Zhong Yan carefully inspected the corpses of the two maids again. There was no external injury, and they should have cut off their vitality with Yuanli.
"Master Zhong, my lady's storage bag is missing! I don't know what's in this room either."
Zhong Yan turned his head and asked, "Did you bring all the dowry this time?"
The maid Xiaotao showed hesitation.
Zhong Yan stared at her and said coldly: "Say! If the murderer is not found, do you think you can live?"
Xiao Tao's body trembled, thinking that the young lady was already dead, she gritted her teeth and said, "Except for the spirit veins, I brought all the dowry worth 66,000 low-grade spirit stones!"
"But the things are in Liu Keqing's place, the Law Weapon brought out from the hall is on me, and the young lady's storage bag is full of her personal belongings, but..."
Zhong Yan frowned: "But what? Honestly tell me everything!"
Xiaotao: "Miss has a lot of resources in her storage bag. She has also saved her dowry over the years, and she has brought all her wealth with her, because, because we originally planned to stay in Qingyang this time."
Zhong Yan asked suspiciously, "Stay in Qingyang?"
Xiaotao nodded, and continued: "Yes, Miss was worried that you might refuse the marriage, so she begged the ancestor and obtained permission to marry to Qingyang and stay in Zhongfu.
In this way, with such a heavy dowry, and you don't need to go to Changning, you have no reason to refuse this marriage.
But before entering the city, the young lady received another message from her ancestors that she was not allowed to stay in Qingyang, so you can only go to Changning..."
Saying that, Xiaotao took a careful look at Zhong Yan.
Zhong Yan let out a breath and asked, "So, the spirit pulse is fake?"
Xiao Tao shook her head and said, "I don't know."
After a pause, she added: "Miss said that she can ask the ancestors to provide spiritual veins."
Zhong Yan's eyes flickered, his brain turned quickly to think, gathered the isolation shield, and took out several sound transmission symbols and arranged them quickly.
"How is your young lady's combat strength?"
"Although the lady only has the sixth floor of Qi Refining, she can't be killed immediately when facing the seventh or eighth floor of Qi Refining. There are treasures and defensive talismans in her storage bag, and she can definitely send a message for help in time, so the murderer has at least eighth floor of Qi Refining." The realm above the peak of the layer!"
Zhong Yan glanced at her, and said calmly: "She was taking a bath, and she was attacked by someone without realizing it, and it is possible for the same level to do it."
In fact, he had already seen that even though Shen Lanxin came out of the bathtub, she had no ability to fight back at all, and the 'fight marks' presented were probably false.
As for the murderer, it is not difficult to identify!
"From now on, do as I say, and I can still find a way to save your life."
Xiaotao hesitated a little, nodded and said, "Yes, Master please give me instructions!"
Zhong Yan looked at her and asked: "Among the guards who came with you, is there a lady from your family who is good with you?"
Xiaotao: "This..."
Zhong Yan snorted, "Your lady is notorious in Changning, so it's groundless? She has sex addiction, right? How can you not be called a good friend?"
"Now that the person is dead, there are so many monks in the mansion, and there are dozens of them in the later stage of Qi Refining. What do you think is the probability of being able to determine the murderer?"
"I signed the marriage certificate, and I can get the spiritual pulse. There is no reason to kill her, even the people in Zhongfu can't."
"Apart from the people of Zhongfu, in this huge mansion, only you and Liu Huwei know the exact location."
"If you want me to tell you, it's because you colluded with the guards, coveted your lady's resources, and plotted to kill someone!"
Xiaotao's face changed drastically, and she trembled with anger: "You, you are talking nonsense!"
Zhong Yan continued: "There must be an explanation for this matter. If the murderer cannot be found, someone must take the blame. If you don't want to, then find someone else.
Since Ms. Lan Xin has the confidence to ask your ancestor for a spiritual vein, it shows that your ancestor attaches great importance to this granddaughter. If there is no clear statement, you will all have to be buried with her! "
Xiaotao's face changed again and again, and she said urgently: "There is a guest guard on the fifth floor of Qi Refining who has an improper relationship with the lady, and is currently staying at the 'Hetai Inn' in the southern district."
"The guards all live together?"
"No, he is with a maid and two maids, but they are the closest to the Bell Mansion, so it's convenient to come here. The other guards are separated. The lady ordered them to inquire about the power and various information of Azure Sun City."
Zhong Yan nodded, and gave the address of the small courtyard where Yu Qingyao used to live, "Message him to make an appointment, and wait."
Xiaotao quickly followed suit.
"If you summon Liu Huwei again, Chang Ning will also have to say something."
Xiaotao said: "There is no high-level communication talisman here, only the young lady and Liu Huwei can contact the family."
"Then wait for him to come."
After Xiaotao's interrogation, she put clothes on Shen Lanxin's body, and wanted to put it in the storage bag temporarily, but was stopped by Zhong Yan.
Not long.
Shouts came from outside.
Zhong Yan and Xiaotao went out, Zhou Yuning, Chen Wanmiao and Gu Baiyu stood at the door.
Chen Wanmiao asked with a smile: "Brother Dao asked us to come here, what do you want?"
Zhong Yan, whose spiritual consciousness has surpassed the seventh level of ordinary Qi Refining, has been able to transmit sound, and explained to Chen Wanmiao and Gu Baiyu respectively.
"Chen Fellow Daoist, no matter what method you use, if this matter is done well, you will be a guest of Zhongfu, with an annual salary of fifty!"
Chen Wanmiao pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, then said decisively, "Okay!"
Gu Baiyu on the side blinked his eyes, nodded and said: "Yes."
Zhong Yan took out two stacks of talismans and gave them to Jiao, "Yunning, take them out through the east door!"
"Yes, my husband!"
As soon as the three of them left, Yan Sandao came running, gave Zhong Yan a look, and said:
"It's all arranged. The three gates are closed to prevent them from going out. The other guards will step up their search in the mansion to see if they can find any suspicious clues..."
After finishing speaking, Yan Sandao asked worriedly: "Husband, this matter... There are so many monks gathered in the house, who is so bold to commit crimes at this time?"
Zhong Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a few figures quickly flashed in his mind. The suspect had basically been identified, but there were still some things he couldn't figure out for the time being.
