Chapter 624 The Dragon Slaying Sword was stolen again

"Did you go missing? Have you searched carefully?"

"There is a plague in the valley, so how can I care about a little maid? I'm so busy that I'm not careful about the ground." Zuo Ming said disapprovingly.

But Lu Sheng's eyes suddenly became solemn, "It's very strange that the outbreak of the Poison King Valley broke out. At this critical moment, a person disappeared. Isn't it even more strange?"

"Master Lu means..." Zuo Ming was not a fool either. After this reminder, he thought of the greatness. "If she was the person who caused the plague of the academy and the Poison King Valley, her disappearance would be suspicious. The person who came, immediately found the maid and was not allowed to let go of any clues."

"yes!"

Under Zuo Ming's leadership, Lu Sheng came to Zuo Guya's boudoir. After all, he was the daughter of the Poison King Valley. The boudoir was decorated very exquisitely, and all the furniture was decorated in Chuzhou Zhuyu Yaju.

"Zuo Guya has met Lord Lu..." Zuo Guya was very ladylike and saluted at Lu Sheng half-squatted. Seeing Lu Sheng's eyes full of vapor, his cheeks were also blushing.

Lu Sheng sighed slightly in his heart. The style of the day was indeed a bit too pretentious. Judging from Xiaonan's meaning, it seemed that half of the ladies in the girls' courtyard had been caught in one go.

"Miss Zhuo, I heard that your maid is missing?"

"Yes, I took a shower and changed clothes last night under Xiaolan's service, and then she went out and asked someone to take off the bath water. But she had not seen anyone come for a long time and had to call someone in person.

Later, I heard that it was getting messy outside, and my father immediately locked me in the room and refused to let me come out. After that... until now."

"That is, there was no plague in the Valley of Poison King before your maid disappeared?"

"This..." Zuo Guya was not a fool either, so she naturally understood the intention of Lu Sheng's question. Is the plague related to Xiaolan?

Zuo Guya's eyes showed confusion. But soon, Zuo Guya shook her head repeatedly and gave up this ridiculous idea.

"Sir, Xiaolan was my maid when she was very young. Although we grew up together, we were masters and servants, we were like sisters. I have a gentle personality. Every time someone wants to bully me, Xiaolan is blocking me... I think she shouldn't... oh oh oh..."

As he said that, he pinched the handkerchief and gently wiped it on the corners of his eyes.

I believe you! If I hadn't seen you with my own eyes how you dealt with Mu Anlin that day, I would have believed it.

"Ms. Zuo didn't see where Zhuo Lan went? Master Zuo Valley, please take me to Zhuo Lan's room to see?"

"Zhuo Lan has always lived with me, and her room is my room..."

"Then, Miss Zuo, can I search it?"

"Can!"

Searching a woman's boudoir is a taboo. According to the case handling procedures of Xuantian Mansion, the matter should be done by the Nu Xuantian Wei. However, there are fewer female Xuantian Wei in Lanzhou, and there are not many brothers brought this time, so Lu Sheng had to search it himself.

The most common thing in a woman's boudoir was naturally women's clothes and shoes. When Lu Sheng was searching, Zuo Guya was burning in the whole process. Because Lu Sheng searched very carefully, even her close-fitting clothes were not spared.

But unfortunately, there was nothing suspicious in the room. Even Mr. Jiao, whom Lu Sheng had hidden secretly, found no suspicious objects.

The absence of suspicious objects does not prove Zhuo Lan's innocence. After all, the two people living together may not hide the key things at home.

On the other hand, the people from the Poison King Valley were also searching for the entire valley, and even went to the snake cave, but did not find the scorpion pond. Zhuo Lan seemed to disappear silently in an instant, which further deepened Lu Sheng's suspicion.

As night fell, Lu Sheng sent another team of Xuantian Guards to be on duty at the Poison King Valley. Lu Sheng began to think about a question: Why aren't a small part of the people in the Poison King Valley infected by the plague? Lu Sheng knew that this plague was infectious. Several doctors were caught.

Chiu--

A roar broke Lu Sheng's thoughts through the sky. Lu Sheng's body flashed and hurried to the outside of the valley. In the distance, a fast horse was running wildly. When he came to Lu Sheng, the fast horse quickly grabbed the reins of the horse.

Before the horse could stand firm, Xuantianwei on his back rolled down from the horse's back. "Sir, at dusk, a female corpse was found on Xingchen Beach. The death time should have been last night."

"Female corpse? What's special about it?"

"The woman was cut off twelve knives. The coroner judged that he died of blood shedding, but the identity of the female corpse could not be determined. This is a portrait of the female corpse." As he said that, Xuan Tianwei took out a piece of paper from the bamboo tube behind him and handed it to Lu Sheng.

After opening his eyes, Lu Sheng's face suddenly changed.

Who is the woman in the portrait, not the missing Zhuo Lan?

"You have a rest, I'll go first." Before he could finish his words, Lu Sheng's figure had disappeared.

When we arrived at the edge of Xingchen Beach, we were already in the dark. As soon as we approached, a group of Xuantianwei brothers came up to us.

"grown ups!"

"Where is the corpse?"

"I will take the adults there."

This was a temporary tent with seven oil lamps lit inside. Zhuolan's body was placed on the door panel in the room.

Zhuo Lan was naked, but there was no bruise on her body. Lu Sheng checked it and there was no sign of being violated. But perhaps because she was soaked in the sea, the traces of being violated would be washed away by water.

"Sir, the deceased had twelve fatal wounds on his body, each of which was very accurate. But strangely, these wounds cut off a large blood vessel but did not hurt other places. The murderer seemed... intentionally?

The identity of the deceased has not been confirmed for the time being, and there is nothing in the deceased that can prove its identity.”

"I can confirm the identity of the deceased. He is the maid of the Poison King Valley named Zhuo Lan. He is also one of the seven people in Zijin Academy who have not been infected with the plague... But why did she die here?"

Lu Sheng looked at the wounds carefully. Since the murderer could kidnap without realizing it, it would be easy to kill her. A killing knife is enough...

Moreover, these twelve swords are extremely tricky. Although they are all fatal injuries, they will not die immediately. The dead will flow with blood and then die with all the blood.

All blood...

Suddenly, Lu Sheng's mind lit up instantly, as if he had grasped some key point.

The sea of ​​stars, blood is shed...

She was one of the people who had experienced giant snakes coming ashore at the beach...

All these clues gathered together, and Lu Sheng suddenly had a speculation that the murderer was trying to bleed.

I still remember that Jiuyue talked about the dragon slaying. The dragon slaying requires the blood of the Xuannv and the Dragon Sword. The Dragon Slaying Sword can break through the defense of the Xuannv. So what about the blood of the Xuannv?

It should be the key to summoning the dragon? The appearance of the mysterious snake that day was very strange. Didn’t the mysterious snake appear by chance? What was that?

At this moment, Lu Sheng felt that it was necessary for him to go to the Fairy Palace to ask.

"You stay here and continue to be vigilant. I'll go to the Immortal Palace. If you find an abnormality, can't you hesitate to start the military formation?"

"yes!"

Lu Sheng rushed into the void and headed straight to the Fairy Spirit Palace. Lu Sheng did not restrain his breath along the way, and naturally Shui Yuexiaoling from the Fairy Spirit Palace also sensed Lu Sheng's arrival very early.

"Why did Lord Lu come to visit late at night?" Before Lu Sheng could fall, Shui Yue Lingxiao's figure had already appeared at the gate of the mountain. "Please please, Lord Lu."

"There is no need to ask inside. I'll think of Mr. Shuiyue to inquire about something. I once heard of something. If you want to kill the demon dragon, you need to kill the dragon sword and Xuannv blood. What's the relationship between Xuannv blood and Xuannv blood? "

"Xuannu Blood? Lord Lu, do you know Xuannu Blood? Xuannu Blood appears again?"

"No! But it is related to a case that I have investigated now. Please ask the Lord of Shuiyue Palace to solve the problem."

"Mr. Lu, I told you last time that the folk legend of Xuannv is actually a saint, and Xuannv's blood is a saint's blood. In order to subdue this snake, the saint started a fierce battle with it and finally stained the sea of ​​stars.

The snake is a creature with a strong sense of revenge. The saint beat it seriously and the mysterious snake naturally hated the saint to the bone. Therefore, the mysterious snake hated the saint’s blood for thousands of years. Therefore, as long as the saint’s blood smelled, the mysterious snake would definitely go wild.”

"But since the saint has been dead for thousands of years, where does the saint's blood come from?" Lu Sheng asked curiously.

"This..." Shui Yue Lingxiao hesitated for a long time and sighed slowly, "The Dragon Slaying Sword and Xuannv Blood were handed over to a sword-making master after the war. Perhaps, the Saint hopes that one day a dragon-slaying warrior can use the Dragon Slaying Sword to kill Xuannv.

However, these two things only exist in myths, and no one knows whether it is true or false. At least, the Dragon Sword and Xuannv Blood have never appeared.

There is also the saint who did not return to Kunlun Holy Land after the disappearance of the saint. There are rumors that she seems to have lived among the people. Perhaps, she will leave behind blood descendants.”

"Have the Dragon Slaying Sword and Xuannv Blood appeared?" Lu Sheng asked curiously.

“I really don’t have it in my memory.”

Then, what they slaughtered in September must be fake dragons.

Originally, I thought I could get some secret, but the result was this seemingly reasonable and loopholesome explanation. But Lu Sheng thought that it might be the truth.

Jiuyue and his group successfully summoned the Xuansnake and fought with it and were destroyed. The Dragon Sword inserted into the Xuansnake's throat was evidence. Then the function of Xuannv's blood was...summoned the Xuansnake.

In the eyes of the murderer, the appearance of the Xuan Snake that day was not accidental, but was attracted by Xuannv blood. The murderer's purpose was to summon the Xuan Snake?

Who will it be? King Xiaoyao? There is this possibility!

Lu Sheng returned to Xuantian Mansion from Xianling Palace and was about to think about the problems behind this case.

First of all, the story of the battle between the Saint and the Xuan Snake is full of loopholes. If it weren't for the mythology and the reality, how could the Saint not be able to defeat the Xuan Snake? Even if a person cannot defeat him, wouldn't he summon his helper?

But the Saint's Blood can summon the mysterious snake... So what is the mysterious snake?

Also, what is the purpose of the murderer's attempt to summon the Xuansnake? To ravage Lanzhou or to kill the secret of seeking immortality?

Dongdongdongdongdong-

A loud drum sounded violently, interrupting Lu Sheng's thoughts.

Lu Sheng's face darkened. Who is it? He beat the drums in the middle of the night to report the case.

"Sir!" Xiaoyuan came to Lu Sheng's office door, "Sir, Xiaoyao King has beaten the drum."

"King Xiaoyao?" Lu Sheng's face was strange and he quickly stood up. In the lobby, he saw King Xiaoyao sitting in the hall with a angrily dark face.

"Prince, what's wrong with you? Why are you so angry?"

"Mr. Lu, you must help me find that bastard. I want to peel him and get cramps."

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion?"

"The Dragon Sword has just been lost and recovered. Before I could heat up... Which bastard actually stole the Dragon Sword again... I'm so angry!"

"Uh--Stealed?"

"I stole it, this evening! I have to wipe the Dragon Sword every day before I can go to bed. Today I go to the treasure house and the Dragon Sword will disappear. Lord Lu, you can go to the palace with me now and find the bastard for me."
