After recruiting the four little janitors and defining them as themselves, Liu Meng felt very satisfied. He felt that this trip to the Ten Thousand Ghost Cave had finally had a little fun and would not be completely fruitless.
Liu Yunman was more concerned about the booklet Liu Meng took out from the bottom of the demon-hunting well. He asked for it directly and studied it carefully.
Because Xue Qiluo wanted to visit Lanjing and appease the four little ghosts on the way, she accompanied Liu Meng and Liu Yunman.
"Yunman, you've been looking at it for a long time, have you seen any flowers?"
On the carriage ride back, Liu Meng asked Liu Yunman while teasing the four brats.
Liu Yunman frowned slightly and said in confusion: "The text in this booklet is really hard to understand. It is different from all the existing texts in Xianyun Continent, and there is no pattern that can be found.
.”
"Could it be the writing from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance?"
Xue Qiluo thought for a while and speculated: "After all, it is said that this thing was brought over by the Yehuo Ancestor from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance."
"That's quite possible."
Liu Yunman nodded, and then became a little confused: "Is there anyone in the Ten Thousand Fire Sect who can understand this kind of writing?
Otherwise, even if they take out this booklet, what's the use of it?"
Xue Qiluo then speculated: "Maybe they can use it even if they can't understand the words.
Didn’t Fairy Liu use this book to collect the water from the demon-hunting well before?”
"That's true."
Liu Yunman agreed with Xue Qiluo's inference, then turned to look at Liu Meng, "Auntie, how did you write this booklet at that time?"
Liu Meng smiled and poked the round belly of Imp No. 1 with his finger, having so much fun that he didn't even hear what Liu Yunman was saying.
"Stop playing, we are discussing something."
Liu Yunman raised his hand and pushed Liu Meng, "You should listen to it."
"Then what's there to discuss?"
Liu Meng came back to her senses and said dissatisfiedly: "When we get to the Immortal Island, we can leave it to Mu Han or Yaoyao to study it. They are the experts in this field. Yunman, you are just a doctor."
Hearing what Liu Meng said, Liu Yunman sighed helplessly, and had to admit that what she said made sense. She was just a doctor and knew nothing about deciphering codes or anything like that.
"Where is that fairy island?"
Xue Qiluo asked tentatively: "Aren't you from Piao Miao Xianmen?"
Liu Yunman glanced at Xue Qiluo and smiled casually: "Yes, Immortal Island is a branch of Piaomiao Xianmen, and we all belong to that branch."
Xue Qiluo smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
...The earth, the top of the snow-capped mountains, the golden floating palace.
After dawn, all the trialists gathered in the lobby and were discussing the murder that happened last night.
The body of the man in golden robe was also placed in the hall. His chest was pierced with a sword, leaving a huge wound, and his heart was removed. It was obvious that the murderer was extremely cruel, and his methods were very clever, and his strength was definitely not weak.
.
"The man in gold robe died at midnight last night. After that, everyone went to the lobby. Only you and that woman were not there. You are not the murderer. Who is the murderer!"
After a night's rest, Ling Qianshan regained his vitality and once again pointed the finger at Xia Xia and Bai Xianxian.
Xia Tian still showed a lack of interest. After hearing Ling Qianshan's words, he just replied: "It seems that you idiot didn't get enough beating yesterday."
"shut up!"
Ling Qianshan was hit hard and immediately became furious: "Don't think that you can show off your power here because you took advantage of it. I just made a mistake last night and gave you the opportunity to take advantage of it."
Xia Tian curled his lips: "If you lose, you lose. You don't even have the courage to admit it. You are really a waste."
"I have not lost! If you dare to insult Ling again, believe it or not, I will stab you to death with a sword!"
Ling Qianshan saw that the other people were looking at him in a wrong way, and he suddenly became furious.
Xia Tian just spit out two words lazily: "Idiot."
Ling Qianshan's lungs were about to burst with anger. He clenched his fist and was about to hit Xia Tian. At this time, someone finally stepped forward to stop him.
"Master Ling, please don't be impulsive."
Qin Baoyu raised his hand to hold Ling Qianshan down and persuaded him: "The top priority is to find the murderer. Don't act out of emotion."
Zhang Zhiqing, the man carrying the sword, said somewhat indifferently: "What murderer are you looking for?
is this necessary?
We are here to participate in the trial of the Little Fairy World, not to play boring crime-solving games."
"Mr. Zhang, there is something wrong with what you said."
Qin Baoyu frowned slightly and said to Zhang Zhiqing: "Although the man in golden robe has nothing to do with us, the murderer is among us after all. If he is not caught early, who knows whether he will attack others?"
"In other words, he is the murderer."
Ling Qianshan's words changed again, and he suddenly turned on Zhang Zhiqing: "You are the only one here who carries a sword on your back all day long."
"It doesn't matter, whatever you think."
Zhang Zhiqing snorted coldly and said proudly: "If you think I am the murderer, feel free to attack me. I will let him know how powerful my Zhang family's five thunder swordsmanship is."
As he said that, he stood up quickly, turned around and walked out of the lobby, heading towards his room: "I don't have time to waste time with you here, you should take your time to find the murderer."
"What are you pretending to be! You self-righteous bastard!"
Yan Zimo from the Chenzhou Zombie Sect had a look of disgust in his eyes and cursed in a low voice.
At this time, my foreign friend James also stood up, shook his head and said: "Last night, I stayed up all night to apply pesticides, and now I'm a little out of energy. I have to go back to my room to catch up on some sleep.
If you catch the murderer, remember to tell your buddies and hide him."
"Humph, I have nothing to say to you."
Ling Qianshan couldn't bear it anymore. He always felt that Xia Tian was looking at him with contempt, so he left the table.
After a while, there were only five people left in the lobby.
"Okay, who else wants to leave?"
Qin Baoyu asked lightly.
Yan Zimo wanted to leave, but he knew very well that among these people, he was the weakest. What if he was targeted by the murderer when he returned to his room? It was better to stay here and save his life.
"Those who stay should be those who really want to catch the murderer."
Qin Baoyu tried to mobilize the remaining people and said slowly.
"Don't take me with you."
Xia Xia clarified: "I'm not interested in who is the murderer or not. It's my wife Xianxian who wants to find the murderer, so I stay here."
Bai Xianxian's pretty face was slightly red. She was still not used to Xia Tian calling her wife in public. After all, she was still an inexperienced girl.
"It doesn't matter. If you have any clues or ideas, please tell me."
Qin Baoyu's temperament tends to be gentle, so if he is the leader, he is unlikely to arouse resentment from others.
"Last night, a strange figure appeared in my room."
Bai Xianxian said at this time: "Sister Xiao and Brother Tian also saw it, but they disappeared after chasing them out."
Xiao Yanyan echoed: "Yes, that guy also had murderous intentions towards me, and I almost fell into his trap."
"Is this true?"
Qin Baoyu then asked: "Then have you seen his appearance?"
Bai Xianxian shook her head: "No, he is very fast, and he is hidden in the shadows, so his appearance is completely invisible."
"However, he is definitely a master of swordsmanship."
Xiao Yanyan said with certainty: "He was behind me at that time, and I felt a sharp murderous aura. That is the murderous aura that can only be emitted by a sword."
"With a sword?"
Qin Baoyu hesitated, "Do you also doubt Zhang Zhiqing?"
"I didn't say that."
Xiao Yanyan shook her head and said with a smile: "A person like Zhang Zhiqing who shows his sword openly is unlikely to be the murderer.
And we can't be sure whether the others can use swords."
At this time, Qin Baoyu suddenly looked at Yan Zimo, who had been silent.
"I have nothing to say."
Yan Zimo said coldly: "My zombie sect practices physical skills and never uses swords."
"It's definitely not him."
Xiao Yanyan said calmly: "After practicing Zombie Boxing, your body will be very stiff. There is no way to hide this, but that person's movement is quite elegant and agile."
"After asking us so many questions, what can you say about yourself?"
Xiao Yanyan looked at Qin Baoyu suspiciously: "How do you prove that you are not the murderer?"
When Qin Baoyu heard this, he was not angry. On the contrary, he laughed: "It's normal for Miss Xiao to be suspicious. I don't want to make any unnecessary excuses. What is the truth? This needs to be investigated by everyone."
"It's all bullshit."
Xiao Yanyan rolled her eyes at him, feeling very bored, "Forget it, I won't play with you anymore. I didn't sleep much last night, so I'm going to catch up on my beauty sleep."
"In this case, it's better for everyone to disperse."
Qin Baoyu smiled bitterly, feeling that none of these trialists were really easy to get along with. "However, it is best to be alert and call for help immediately if you find something wrong."
Having said this, Yan Zimo couldn't stay anymore, but when he turned to leave, he subconsciously glanced at Xia Tian one more time, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he left without saying a word.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Xia."
After Qin Baoyu and others left, he suddenly stopped Xia Tian: "Your name is Xia Tian, right?
I seem to have heard Miss Xiao call you that."
"Yes, my name is Xia Tian."
Xia Tian lazily replied: "Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the best days in the world.
What did you want to say when you called me?"
Qin Baoyu looked at Xia Tian solemnly and said slowly: "Yesterday, I found a piece of paper on the side of the golden-robed man, which contained the list of those who would be tested this time.
I put the list away quietly and did not let others see it."
Xia Tian curled his lips: "I don't have time to listen to your nonsense, let's talk about the important point."
"It seems that your name is not on the list of testers."
Qin Baoyu observed Xia Tian's reaction, "Who are you, and what is your purpose of sneaking into the trialists?
Are you the murderer of the man in golden robe?"
Xia Tian said nonchalantly: "I have never said what kind of trialist I am, I have already said that I went to Little Fairyland just to save my wife.
As for you idiots, I can kill them all with ease.
Only trash with insufficient strength would engage in so many monsters."
Qin Baoyu was speechless for a moment, licked his lips and said nothing more.
