Mingwei was in a hurry to leave the city because he wanted to rescue Xuanfei.
Now that things are like this, there is no point in going, we can only go back first.
Jiang Wenfeng assured her: "Don't worry, girl, I will find out the truth and I will not let the Imperial Master be wronged."
Mingwei naturally believed him and warned: "When it comes to Xuanmen, Mr. Jiang must pay attention to safety. It is best to stay with Lei Guard."
Jiang Wenfeng smiled and said: "Is it serious? I am an official of the imperial court. The murderer cannot be an enemy of the imperial court, right?"
Ming Wei said: "Of course orthodox Xuanmen won't do it. They are in the world of mortals, and they want the government to turn a blind eye. But if they are masters of Xuanmen without any sect, then that is not necessarily the case. If they are strong enough, it is absolutely possible.
Treat the law as nothing."
Seeing how solemn she was, Jiang Wenfeng stopped smiling: "Okay, I listen to Miss Ming."
Ming smiled: "Then I won't delay Mr. Jiang's official business. If there is an opportunity, please ask Mr. Jiang to find a way to involve me in this case."
Jiang Wenfeng nodded: "It's not difficult. This case has a Mystical background, and we have cooperated before. As long as the Holy One does not object, we can ask for your help."
The two agreed that Jiang Wenfeng would go out of the city to the murder scene.
Mingwei returned to Ji's house, pretended to have just woken up, had breakfast, and then went out.
She and Yang Shu had made an appointment before. When they met at the city gate, they still went to Xuandu to watch.
Only this time, it was not to see Xuan Fei, but to see Ning Xiu.
"Brother!"
The sun had just risen, and under the faint golden light, Ning Xiu stood on the rock with fluttering clothes, like an immortal.
Seeing them coming, Ning Xiu only glanced at them and turned back.
Yang Shu jumped up and asked him: "Senior brother, what are you doing here?"
Ning Xiu pointed to the carvings on the rock and said, "This is master's handwriting."
Yang Shu was confused.
He knows this! This place can see the first ray of the rising sun. When he first taught him swordsmanship, the old Taoist sat here almost every day.
What was written on the rock was a Taoist formula, and he had already memorized it by heart.
"It was the old man who carved it, what happened?"
Ning Xiu said: "Stand away a little."
Yang Shu was confused, but he still did it.
Then I saw Ning Xiu sitting cross-legged, blocking out most of the sunlight just like he did when practicing Qi in the past.
Yang Shu looked left and right, but didn't understand.
Ming Wei below saw the main point: "Look at those words."
Yang Shu cast his gaze over and saw that the dense sunlight was shining on the stone wall. Some traces were faint and could not be seen, while others were more distinct.
"Stone...Zhong...Jing?"
Ning Xiu nodded gently and stood up again.
"Brother, do you suspect what Master wants to convey?"
"Um."
"Can't you?" Yang Shu said with a smile, "When it comes to carving, it's normal to have different depths. Maybe it's because these words are carved with more force?"
Ning Xiu shook his head: "You spend very little time with Master, so you don't know his habits. Master likes to be mysterious. He often creates riddles for me to guess. He even breaks up the exercises and hides them for me.
The clues told me to find them myself."
"That's it!" Yang Shu thought for a while, "But there are only three words, how can you guess this?"
He had an idea: "The Scripture in the Stone, is there something hidden in this stone?"
Ning Xiu looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"What are you doing?" Yang Shu was dissatisfied with his contemptuous gaze, "Doesn't my guess make sense?"
Ning Xiu raised his chin: "This is a huge boulder. Tell me where to hide it?"
"Huh?" Yang Shu looked up and down, "Is there no mechanism or something?"
"I've been looking for it for several days. If you can find it, please do."
After Ning Xiu finished speaking, he jumped off the rock and went into the house to cook.
Xuanduguan treated him well. Every day, people came to carry water and do chores, and vegetables were also delivered. But when it came to things, Ning Xiu preferred to do it himself.
Mr. Ning, who has an air of immortality, cooks as if he were walking on clouds and flowing water. He is surrounded by the fireworks of the world, but he is not stained by any dust.
By the time he finished cooking, Yang Shu and Ming Wei had already checked the entire rock to make sure there were no traps.
"Let's eat." Ning Xiu said.
The two of them could only give up and go inside to eat.
"How could it not be there?" Yang Shu still didn't believe it, "There is such a big rock nearby, where else could you point to it?"
Mingwei was worried about Xuan Fei's incident, so he asked Ning Xiu: "Sir, have you heard about the murder case in Xuandu Temple?"
"Yeah." Ning Xiu responded calmly.
"Do you know what's going on?"
Ning Xiu finished his meal and put down his chopsticks before saying: "A while ago, Xuan Fei aggressively eliminated dissidents, which made some elders dissatisfied with him. Now the Xuandu Temple is divided into two factions. One faction believes that Yu Yang was killed by himself and should die, and the other faction
One group believes that he was wrongly accused, and both sides insist on their own opinions. It is estimated that there will be no results, and they can only wait for the court to intervene."
Mingwei asked him: "Sir, do you think Xuan Fei killed him?"
Ning Xiu shook his head: "I don't know."
"You have known Xuanfei for a long time, right? You should have a good understanding of his temperament."
Ning Xiu said: "In my personal opinion, the possibility of Xuan Fei taking action is very small. He has firmly established himself as the master of the temple, and it is time to show off his ambitions. Yuyang is at a disadvantage and can no longer be called an opponent. For this reason
It's not worth it for a person to lose himself."
Mingwei couldn't help but nod. The Xuanfei she knew was also such a person. He was very calm and good at weighing the pros and cons. He was not someone who would kill impulsively, and would not do such a thing that would not be worth the gain.
"Unless," Ning Xiu added, "if we don't kill Yuyang, there will be a greater crisis and he will take risks."
"Is there something wrong with the relic of Imperial Master Xu Xing?" Mingwei sighed, "It's a pity that I can't see Xuan Fei now and can't learn the truth from him. Sir..."
Before she could say anything, Ning Xiu already knew what she wanted to say, and said: "I advise you not to. Xuanfei is now imprisoned in the Gongde Tower, and the elders of Xuandu Temple are confronting each other on the platform outside. There are so many
Master, we can't break in silently."
All right...
"We can't meet in private. We have to wait for news from Mr. Jiang." Mingwei murmured.
Having said that, Ning Xiu took them to Xuandu in the afternoon to check out the news.
When Ji Xiaowu heard that she was coming, he rushed over angrily: "Ancestor! Don't get involved in this matter!"
Ming smiled: "How did my cousin know that I wanted to get involved?"
Ji Xiaowu said disdainfully: "You just like to meddle in other people's business. What's more, the Imperial Master still has an old relationship with you."
Yang Shu asked, "Why does this sound wrong to me? Hey, if you told her to leave it alone, do you know the inside story?"
Ji Xiaowu said: "My master is at the Taoist platform, and now the problem is big. Some people are using this matter to challenge the Imperial Master. If one person fails, Xuandu Temple will fall apart."
Ming Wei was surprised: "Xuan Fei's popularity is so bad? Isn't he a good dancer?"
"It's better to say that the benefits are impressive." Ji Xiaowu whispered, "I heard that the relic of the Xuxing Imperial Master is actually the treasure of the Xuandu Temple. Whoever can get it will become the best Xuanshi in the world.
."
Huh?
After revealing this inside information, Ji Xiaowu said: "I have to go back immediately to help my master in case of a fight."
"How can you help?" Mingwei expressed distrust in his skills.
"I can help Master wave the flag and shout!" Ji Xiaowu said matter-of-factly, and ran away in a hurry. (To be continued)
