When he first formed a pill, in order to prevent his identity as "Zhuang Sheng" from attracting too much attention, Meng Zhou chose to appear in front of others as "Ge Ping".

And I was able to form the elixir successfully because of the help from President Pan’s master and apprentice, and the Sanchuan Club also contributed a lot.

In order to prevent President Pan from being alienated from him because of this matter, Meng Zhou briefly revealed some reasons to him.

Although "Zhuang Sheng" himself behaves in a low-key manner, he himself is in a "place of suspicion".

If there is no pill formation and before it enters the field of vision of all parties, there will be no problem.

But if once he becomes the protagonist of a story that is passed down by mouth like the current "Ge Yaoshi", then the secret prying eyes he will receive will definitely be far greater than now.

In order to strengthen his persuasion, Meng Zhou also vaguely revealed some of the problems of Lu Quan and Qiao Xin to Chairman Pan.

Meng Zhou never expected that President Pan would suddenly come to his door and bring such news.

Although "Zhuang Sheng" has become more and more silent in the past two years, he has no longer participated in the gatherings of foreign monks that are still held regularly, but he does occasionally go out and walk around.

When I meet old friends like Qiao Xin, I will take the opportunity to get together.

Meng Zhou remembered that the last time we had a small gathering, during the trade fair at the end of September last year, we all casually chatted about some interesting things in practice and life.

Meng Zhou never thought that when he heard this name again, he would be in such a situation.

However, after the initial shock, Meng Zhou's mood quickly calmed down.

With thoughts racing in my mind, I asked, "How did you find out?"

President Pan explained: "That's it..."

At the beginning, Qiao Xin, as a foreign monk from the Yuling Realm, finally picked up a ready-made item and lived in Lu Quan's farmland.

At the beginning, many people were a little unconvinced.

After Qiao Xin explained the reason, everyone knew why she was able to get this "good deal".

Because she is a second-level beast master, she provided the Sanchuan Society with a formula for beast pills that can help improve the rainfall ability of the black toad in the rainforest.

As a beast master from the spirit master realm, it doesn't seem strange at all to have this ability.

Similarly, as a beast master, it is also very reasonable to master a few beasts with natural farming ability and natural rainfall ability.

With such an advantage, everything from plowing to daily rainfall was handled by Qiao Xin's spirit beast, and it was hard for Sanchuan Hui to earn a single spirit stone from her in this regard.

Later, all the villages were expanding their spiritual fields, and Qiao Xin also took the opportunity to expand the spiritual fields to 8,000 acres.

It is said that this is the limit that she can achieve on her own without relying on outside help from the Sanchuan Association.

She has always taken good care of herself.

"But in the past two days, a field patrol discovered something was wrong, and the news was quickly reported to me. After violently breaking through the formation and entering, I found Qiao Xin dead in the quiet room."

The world of spiritual practice is not a place where the rule of law is truly harmonious and rules-based. Even in Sanchuan Yuan, there are still Sanchuan Hui secretly happening all the time, and things beyond the control of the main government of Sanchuan Yuan City are happening.

The only thing President Pan and others can do is to ensure the stability of order on the surface and resolutely fight back if anyone maliciously disrupts it.

But there is nothing they can do about things that happen in the dark.

The landowner of a certain village died inexplicably in his cave. He may have caused his own death, or he may have been harmed by someone else;

Or some farm owners disappear without any reason, abandoning the farmland they have worked hard for many years and disappearing. It may be that they were harmed by others, and their bodies are not seen alive or dead. It is also possible that there are really more important things that require them to leave...

Although such things are rare, similar things always happen every year in the vast Sanchuan Plain.

Faced with such a situation, the Mikawa Society had no intention of trying the case and finding out who the murderer was.

The only thing that the Sanchuan Society cares about is to continue to operate these spiritual fields and ensure that the growth of spiritual plants in the spiritual fields is not affected.

To this end, the Sanchuan Society has also set up a special field patrol team to regularly inspect the growth conditions of spiritual plants in various spiritual fields. Once any abnormal signs are found in a certain spiritual field, it will immediately pay attention to it.

The first step is to communicate with the landlord. If the communication fails, it will be regarded as an accident or even an accident to the landlord. The Sanchuan Society will take over the management of the spiritual field and violently destroy the courtyard of the landlord's retreat to investigate the situation.

As the governance of the Mikawa Plains transitioned from the Mikawa Hui to the City Lord's Mansion, the rules of the field patrol were also taken over intact, and the original team - that is, the people of the Mikawa Hui - were still in charge.

Qiao Xin's sudden death was discovered through this process.

"After inspection, it was confirmed that Qiao Xin died late at night three days ago." President Pan said.

"What was the cause of her death?" Meng Zhou asked.

President Pan said in a deep voice:

"On the surface, it seems that she made a mistake in her performance during the period of seclusion, and her magic power flowed backwards, destroying her Dantian, which ultimately led to her death.

…But I don’t believe that’s the reason!”

Having said this, President Pan's expression was extremely solemn. He looked at Meng Zhou and asked, "How should we respond?"

Meng Zhou, who was pondering this matter in his mind, heard this and replied directly without thinking:

"How should we deal with it? Of course we have to follow the formal procedures and deal with it how we should deal with it."

"Huh?" President Pan's expression froze.

"Since you have confirmed after examination that her death was caused by problems in her practice, what else is there to think about?

This kind of thing has never happened before. How we dealt with it before will be dealt with this time."

Hearing this, President Pan's eyes became brighter, and the tense emotions he had felt since entering the cave gradually relaxed.

"President Pan, you just need to remember that from your perspective, there is nothing special about this Qiao Xin.

When dealing with her death, just follow the previous rules and don't do anything superfluous," Meng Zhou said.

President Pan nodded heavily and said, "I understand!"

After that, he said goodbye and left without waiting for a moment longer.

Originally, he wanted to have some discussions with "Mr. Ge" about Qiao Xin's death, but now he took the initiative to put an end to this idea.

Watching Pan Huiyuan's retreating figure, Meng Zhou's eyes fell into deep thought.

…

That night, late at night.

Meng Zhou quietly escaped from his cave, and also quietly escaped from the core area of ​​the inner city sealed by the third-level high-grade formation.

After quietly escaping, Meng Zhou did not go to Qiao Xin's residence, but moved away in the opposite direction.

It wasn't until he was more than three hundred miles away from Qiao Xin Zhuang's fields that Meng Zhou, who had escaped from the Five Elements and merged with the soil beneath him, stopped.

If given a choice, he would of course be willing to treat Qiao Xin's death as an accidental suicide, as he suggested to President Pan, without delving into the deeper inside story.

But Meng Zhou also knew very clearly that unlike President Pan, there were some things that he could not avoid if he wanted to.

At the beginning, through the retrospection ability of Yue Jing Yuanguang, Meng Zhou saw how Qiao Xin used a jade sign to attract "Yan Shizun".

Before the "Yan Shizun" left, he sent Qiao Xin a personal mission that he said was easy to complete.

When Qiao Xin heard about his mission, he found it inexplicable and unclear.

But for Meng Zhou, it was like a sudden thunder exploding in his heart.

At that time, Meng Zhou was only 80 to 90% sure, and did not dare to be 100% sure that the real goal of "Yan Shizun" was related to Yaya.

Then, taking into account the incident of Bai Zhi who took the initiative to "deliver goods to the door" during his breakthrough period, Meng Zhou was almost 100% sure.

The real target of this "Yan Shizun" is not only Yaya, but also probably Bai Zhi.

And now, both of them have concluded a life contract with themselves.

This biggest cause and effect has fallen into one's own hands as early as the beginning, which cannot be avoided no matter what.

…

Small magical power, transparent moon mirror.

The transparent moon mirror directly brought a courtyard more than 300 miles away into view, and then locked it in the quiet room.

The viewing radius of the transparent moon mirror can reach 500 miles. In your own cave, you can explore the situation of Qiao Xin without leaving home.

The reason for doing this is just to keep a steady hand out of habit and avoid being locked back by some possible means.

At this moment, this quiet room is empty and clean, with nothing special about it.

Obviously, Sanchuan Club has carefully cleaned up the place according to normal procedures and removed all personal marks belonging to Qiao Xin, waiting for the next owner to move in.

Therefore, if we only start from "now", no matter how clever the detective is, it is impossible to find any traces.

The image in the moon mirror began to move backwards.

Soon, a group of people were seen "retreating" into the quiet room.

Of course, the current image is played backwards, so in the normal timeline, these people are walking out of the quiet room.

Meng Zhou was not surprised by the appearance of these people, because they were responsible for cleaning up and ordering the site.

——As for preserving the scene, what’s the point?

Meng Zhou didn't even stop to watch, and directly ignored what happened during this period.

With the help of the transparent moon mirror, continue to trace back further in time.

Soon, the time in the moon mirror went back to a few days ago.
To be continued...
