Su Anran carefully sorted out the four clues currently known.
[Clue 1: There was an adventure on Monday.]
[Clue 2: Yi Tong once had a close personal relationship with Fang Min and Luo Yuan. 】
[Clue 3: Zhou Tong seems to like eating a kind of sugar cake called white jade cake, and often sends his outer disciples to help buy it. 】
[Clue 4: White Jade Cake is a kind of spiritual food, with Dreamweed added to it. 】
After Su Anran learned about the medicinal properties of Huimengcao from his senior sister, his clue four also changed.
Dreamgrass is a relatively rare spiritual plant.
Rare, not rare.
The reason why it is rare is that the effect of this kind of dream-returning grass is very single. It can produce a special effect of stagnation and freezing in the meridians of monks, so that monks need to spend more spiritual energy to break through this stagnation and blockage. It sounds like It seems to be a spiritual plant used for self-abuse.
But monks are people who go against the will of nature and long to become stronger. How could they take something that obviously slows down the improvement of their own cultivation?
But everything must have cause and effect and pros and cons.
Although the effect of Dreamweed seems to be completely a kind of poison, in fact, its special medicinal properties are also some types of elixirs that are specially used to treat symptoms of obsession.
The common sign of these types of obsessions is that the absorbed spiritual energy is too large, has many impurities, and is difficult to sort out. This will cause the monk's internal energy to explode at any time, leading to the monk becoming obsessed and irreversible. Of course, it may also be because the absorbed spiritual energy is too large. If there is too much, it cannot be digested and converted into true energy for a while, so we have to resort to this stupid method of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause to suppress the true energy that may go wild.
So in any case, it is absolutely obvious that there is a problem with Monday Express.
So after solving this point, clues three and four seem to have little value, after all, the answer to the mystery has been solved.
But Su Anran knew that this thing was definitely not that simple.
Because so far, every clue given by the system must be related, and may even involve new problems.
For example, clues three and four seem to have been solved, but the question involved is: What is the relationship between the pastry shop owner and Zhou Tong, and why did he use Huimengcao as medicine to make white jade cake to help him suppress his injuries? He even went so far as to remain anonymous. Come and settle in this small village.
There must be deep implications and secrets that he hasn't discovered yet.
But Su Anran knew that this was the reason why the cheating device was turned on and the progress was too fast.
Because if ordinary people encounter this kind of problem, it will take a lot of time just to search and inquire for clues in all aspects, and the subsequent information collection and analysis is not an easy task. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to be able to do this. Su Anran, in just half a day, reasoned the entire incident to such an extent that he was almost able to solve the problem.
"Huh." Su Anran exhaled softly, "The last step is left."
"Little friend, why are you in such a hurry to find us?"
"I probably already know the specific situation." Su Anran looked at the head of Tianluo Sect in front of him, as well as several Tianluo Sect elders and three personal disciples.
"What?" One of the elders looked surprised, "It's only been half a day..."
"The matter is not complicated, so it is enough." Su Anran nodded slightly, "But before that, I hope you can capture the owner of the pastry shop. Only when you find him and I ask the last question can I determine what happened. Who is the murderer?"
"Are you sure?" The head of Tianluo Sect frowned, "You have more than one person you suspect now?"
"Yes." Su Anran did not deny it, "I have three suspects here, and the pastry shop owner is one of them. But he is indeed a key figure, so I must find him and ask what I want. Only with the answer can I identify the murderer."
"Can you tell me who the other two are?"
"Not for the time being." Su Anran shook his head, "I don't want to wrongly accuse anyone before I get concrete evidence. This is my habit, please forgive me."
"Then let's rush to the pastry shop in the village now."
"I just came back there, and the pastry chef had already run away." Su Anran said, "The other party should have left immediately at the moment Zhou Tong died. However, the other party was very careful, and there were some things that were not dealt with. It’s clean, but I found it.”
"What?"
"One of the things is Dreamweed."
"Dream-returning grass?" Several elders were stunned, "What can that thing do?"
"Yitong Yitong's slow cultivation speed is not because he is not talented, but because he was injured when he had an adventure. Therefore, the true energy in his body can run wild at any time, so he needs to use Dreaming Grass to suppress it every once in a while." Su Anran did not hide it. Instead of this clue, he directly said, "The pastry chef is a monk. He used the method of making spiritual food to medicine the dream grass into a kind of white jade cake, and then used the outer disciples of Tianluo Sect to replace it. I brought this spiritual meal to him under the guise of running errands on Monday."
"What!" The man who was Yitong Yitong's master looked shocked, "But when I accepted my disciple, I clearly checked him. I..."
"So he must have concealed something at the beginning. It should be the handiwork of the pastry chef." Su Anran replied, "After all, he can make spiritual meals and ignite smokeless charcoal for elixirs. The other party must also be a powerful person. The personal elixirs made by the alchemists are all kinds of weird, so this is normal."
"I understand." The head of Tianluo Sect nodded slightly, "I'd like to trouble the two elders to follow the route to Huimengcao Valley and Xiaoxiangzhi Forest... The other party has only been away for a long time. At this time, with the two elders' With the speed, I should be able to catch up quickly."
Huimengcaogu and Xiaoxiangzhilin are located in the northwest and northeast of Tianluomen respectively.
Xiao Xiangzhi Lin is the only official road that passes through the nearby sect with teleportation array, and it is about a day's walk from Tianluo Sect. Back to Mengcao Valley, Su Anran has heard from the head of Tianluo Sect that it takes about two days to travel - - This is what surprised Su Anran. He didn't expect that the mountains near Tianluomen actually had a valley where dreamgrass grew. No wonder the pastry chef had a stable channel of dreamgrass.
"But the other party has been gone for a long time. I'm afraid it's hard to catch up, right?"
"Haha, this distance is calculated based on the level of monks below the natal realm, but if you are an elder of my sect, it is not necessary." The head of Tianluo Sect said with a smile, "It won't take two hours. It's enough for them to capture the person, little friend, just wait for a while."
Su Anran was a little surprised: "A monk below the natal realm? The pastry shop owner's cultivation level is actually below the natal realm?"
"That's for sure." The head of Tianluo Sect nodded, "If the other party had a cultivation level above the natal realm, I would have discovered it long ago. Unless the other party took a pill that can hide the cultivation level, or practiced something similar
Secret technique. But if this is the case, then if he wants to kill Ichitong, he can do it directly while Ichitong is heading to the village, there is no need to poison him."
【bite--】
Su Anran ignored the leader of the Tianluo Sect who was in urgent need of deepening his rainbow fart, and immediately opened his mission system to check for new clues.
[Clue 5: The pastry shop owner’s cultivation level is below the natal realm.]
"That's it." Su Anran suddenly nodded.
The leader of Tianluo Sect smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
After about two hours, the two appointed elders returned to the sect.
The head of Tianluo Sect frowned when he saw the empty hands of these two elders: "Are they run away?"
"No, we didn't find anyone." The faces of the two elders looked quite ugly. "We chased them along the way, and then went back to the original route to conduct a careful survey, but we didn't find any trace... We suspected that the other party might not have any trace at all.
He didn’t run away, he even hid in the village.”
"Let's go to the village and have a look." The leader of Tianluo Sect stood up immediately.
"No need." Su Anran suddenly said at this moment, "You will never find someone."
"Why?" Several elders were stunned.
"Could it be that..." The head of Tianluo Sect realized something, and there was a little surprise on his face, "The person died?"
"I'm going to ask you this, Head Yang." Su Anran suddenly laughed.
"Ask me? What do you mean, little friend?" The head of Tianluo Sect frowned and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "I don't quite understand."
"Of course it means literally." Su Anran shrugged, "I have figured out many things. The only thing I still don't understand is why you killed Zhou Tong? If it was because the ancient sacred tree was sold, then
You should have taken action five years ago instead of delaying it until now... But since you chose to take action now, then there must have been some unexpected changes, or... Zhoutong was out of your control.
"
"You little brat, what are you talking about!"
Several elders had already begun to curse at each other.
Su Anran looked at these people speechlessly. He felt that these natal monks could become the elders of Tianluomen, not because of their strength, but because they were stupid enough and knew how to send rainbow farts.
.
"You guys have to help count the money after being sold." Su Anran shook her head, "I don't know how you cultivated to the natal realm. God is so cruel."
"You little brat!"
"How arrogant!"
Su Anran was too lazy to pay attention to these pig heads. He turned his head and looked at the head of Tianluomen, his face looked very helpless: "I don't know what trouble Zhou Tong is involved in. In fact, I don't care. As I said before
As I said, I just came to ask Zhou Tong about the ancient sacred tree, but he died unexpectedly in front of me. I was actually forced to get involved in this trouble. You should be able to understand my beeping mood, right?
?”
"Beep the dog?" The leader of Tianluo Sect was a little confused, but he quickly shook his head and said with a smile, "When did you find out? In other words, did I expose a flaw somewhere that aroused your suspicion?
?”
Several leaders of Tianluo Sect looked dumbfounded.
Why did the leader's style of painting suddenly change while he was talking?
How are we going to clean this land?
"Actually, there was none at the beginning." Su Anran shook her head, "The person I suspected at first was not you, but your direct disciple Luo Yuan."
"Me?" Luo Yuan looked confused.
From beginning to end, he had no understanding of the whole incident. He was just a passerby with only a name.
"Because you and Fang Min are the only two people who are relatively close to Yi Tong, and it is also consistent with some of the abnormalities that Yi Tong had during the time when he had the adventure." Su Anran looked at Luo Yuan, and then explained, "For example,
Your cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds during that time."
"I was..."
"Okay, needless to say, since you are not a prisoner, I am not interested in why your strength has improved so rapidly." Su Anran stopped and motioned to Luo Yuan to say no more, "Who hasn't asked for adventure yet?"
Luo Yuan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
He suddenly felt like he was a little miserable.
"Let's talk about the death of Zhou Tongshen." Su Anran looked at the head of Tianluomen, and then continued, "I said I just came to find Zhou Tong to understand something, but at first you
But when I did it, I guided the topic to the secret realm, which made me really
Wei Yitong entered a certain secret realm and obtained considerable benefits from it... But this kind of thing is also normal. After all, there are not many adventures in the mysterious world. Generally speaking, when it comes to adventures, it must be that he entered a certain place by mistake.
A secret realm or a secret world that has not been discovered yet.”
At the beginning, Su Anran did not have the slightest doubt about this.
However, it wasn't until he checked the clues again that he realized that he had been misled.
[Clue 1: There was an adventure on Monday.]
From beginning to end, the prompts given by the system are "adventures", not "secret realms".
If, as the head of Tianluo Sect said, Zhou Tong had entered a secret realm, the system prompts would have changed long ago.
You will know this when you refer to clue four.
[Clue 4: White jade cake seems to be a kind of spiritual food, with some special ingredients added to it. 】
[Clue 4: White Jade Cake is a kind of spiritual food, with Dreamweed added to it. 】
It was also clue four, but the change in information occurred after an "international phone call" between Su Anran and senior sister Fang Qianwen. It was then that Su Anran noticed that the head of Tianluomen had repeatedly hinted that Yi Tong had entered by mistake.
A certain secret realm, but the clue 1 had never been updated, so at that time he removed the information that "One Monday Pass Enters the Secret Realm".
Of course, Su Anran would never say these words.
What he said was: "Later, I learned through inquiries that Luo Yuan and Fang Min had a close personal relationship with Yi Tong. Moreover, Yi Tong and Fang Min both liked to go to the pastry shop in the village to buy pastries...
What Zhou Tong bought was a white jade cake, but it was actually a spiritual meal to cure his hidden illness; while what Fang Min bought was a peach and osmanthus cake, a pastry that is so sweet that it makes people feel sick to their stomachs. I didn’t notice it at first.
, and then when I thought about it carefully, I discovered the common ground."
"Oh?" The leader of Tianluo Sect raised his eyebrows, "What do they have in common?"
"It's not something that ordinary people know how to eat." Su Anran said lightly, "But the peach and sweet-scented osmanthus cake is just a very ordinary pastry without any spiritual energy, so why does Fang Min always buy this thing? So I made a bold guess,
This must be some kind of mission that he had agreed with the pastry shop owner in advance."
"Where's the evidence?"
"The evidence is that Fang Min buys peach-osmanthus cake and Monday-to-buy white jade cake at fixed times." Su Anran shrugged, "Your default communication method is too imprudent...Monday-to-buy white jade cake."
It’s understandable that the time for making cakes is fixed, but a normal monk still needs to go at a fixed time to buy some snacks? Are you sick?”
"I see." The leader of Tianluo Sect nodded, "It was indeed an oversight. But how did you make sure it was me?"
"In the case of Zhou Tong's death, the only people who can kill him are people within the Tianluo Sect, but there are not many people who can get close to Zhou Tong. I asked the outer disciples around, and it is absolutely impossible to do it, and the inner disciples
The disciple couldn't find anyone because Fang Min was out, so I did suspect Luo Yuan for a while."
"I?"
"Ah, you have nothing to do now, just stand there and don't talk." Su Anran waved her hand as if to ward off flies.
Luo Yuanxiao feels wronged.jpg.
"I didn't think of a coincidence at first, but I did suspect that the pastry shop owner was from Tianluomen and the real murderer of Zhou Tong." Su Anran shrugged, "Because Zhou Tong died in many ways.
A potent poison formed by contact with toxins. And the owner of the pastry shop is obviously an alchemist who can use spiritual implants to implant medicine. Isn’t it quite normal for an alchemist to have some knowledge of toxicology and poison-using skills... So then
In an instant, I identified the murderer."
The pastry shop owners, Luo Yuan and Fang Min, are the three people I suspected at first...but then I thought about it carefully, could the pastry shop owner be one of Luo Yuan or Fang Minli? What if?
If this is the case, then the list of murderers can be
So we can narrow it down to two people." Su Anran stretched out two fingers, "This is consistent with my previous inference that Fang Min was communicating with the pastry shop owner in secret codes. In this way, I am sure that Zhou Tong was conspired to poison.
The murderer was two people, not one."
"Then why do you suspect me?"
"You exposed it yourself." Su Anran said, "It's said that villains die from talking too much. You exposed too much information yourself. Especially since you are very sure that the pastry shop owner's cultivation level is below the natal realm, and you said
All journeys are based on the standards of monks with cultivation levels below the natal realm."
[Clue 5: The pastry shop owner’s cultivation level is below the natal realm.]
"It takes me more than half an hour to go to the pastry shop in the village, but if it were you, it would probably not take more than a few minutes, right? Then you would have quite a long time to clean up all traces of your presence in the pastry shop.
Su Anran said, "And only you can come and go with Tianluomen and the pastry shop without anyone noticing. And only you can arrange actions for Fang Min that won't arouse suspicion."
"After eliminating all possibilities, no matter how absurd the last answer is, it is the truth." Su Anran raised a finger, "Because there is always only one truth!"
The head of Tianluo Sect smiled and started to applaud: "It's really a very wonderful reasoning. Although some of it is not very rigorous, and I can't figure out how you connected, but I can only say that you
Your thinking is quite jumpy and flexible, and you have quite amazing intuition... If you had one or two more days, you should not be able to find any clues about this matter. It's a pity that you only spent
In less than half a day…”
Because I have a plug-in.
Su Anran smiled: "Thank you...but actually I can't understand why you wanted to kill Zhou Tong."
"It's not that I want to kill him, but the people above want to kill him."
"People above?" Su Anran was puzzled.
"You won't understand even if I tell you. You are not from Jingshi Hall." The head of Tianluo Sect shook his head.
Amazing Hall!
Su Anran pretended to be confused on the surface, but she was quite shocked inside.
Although he was quite unfamiliar with the Jingshitang organization, at least he had heard about it.
On the surface, this organization is an emerging force organization with members all over the Mysterious World. It is almost composed of countless geniuses. It has a strong influence and has even gradually become the benchmark for the younger generation in the Mysterious World: most young monks
They are all proud to join Jingshi Hall.
But in fact, the core members of the Jingshitang are all reincarnations in the cycle of reincarnation, and they are still the kind of worldly people who are afraid of chaos in the world.
"Is it related to the ancient sacred tree?" Su Anran asked.
He has not forgotten his mission, which is to collect the whereabouts of other ancient sacred trees.
This mysterious Tianluomen murder case is just a small episode.
"It doesn't matter if I tell you, you are already dead anyway." The head of Tianluo Sect said slowly, "Yitong is also a member of Jingshi Hall. He joined Jingshi Hall five years ago. But in fact, he just came in
He was spying on the information of Jingshi Hall, and the ancient sacred tree in your hand was indeed sold by him while we were not paying attention. But even he himself did not expect that Guya Sect would withhold the ancient sacred tree for as long as
For five years, it was only recently put up for auction."
"Sure enough, we should keep silent." Su Anran nodded, "So do you know the news about this and the ancient sacred tree?"
"Of course I know." The head of Tianluo Sect nodded, "But why should I tell you? You are just a dead person, and after killing you, I can also reclaim this ancient sacred tree.
The mission requirements from Shitang have been exceeded."
Su Anran sighed: "So in the end, we still have to fight."
"How naive." The head of Tianluo Sect shook his head, "I admit that I did underestimate you before. I didn't expect you to be able to discover so many things. But it's not too late now, just a fourth-level Aperture Realm
It's just a little monk, I will kill it if I want...Four elders, what I told you before about the secret realm and the rise of our Tianluo Sect are all true. You don't need to worry, wait until I take this
I’ll explain it to you in detail later, little guy.”
"Do you want to surrender and take out the ancient sacred tree yourself, or do you want me to kill you and take it myself?"
"It sounds like you'll let me go if I take it out myself."
"If you are willing to join the Jingshi Hall, it is not impossible to consider it." The head of Tianluo Sect still admires Su Anran for being able to discover so many things in half a day, especially because he thinks that Su Anran dares to travel like this.
, and even bid for an ancient sacred tree, the master behind him must be extraordinary.
This kind of distinguished disciple is the member that Jingshi Hall likes to recruit and accept the most.
"I'd better ask."
"What?"
"Tell me everything you know about the ancient sacred trees. Maybe if I'm in a good mood I can spare your life."
"Oh, since you are seeking your own death, then..."
Before the head of Tianluo Sect could finish speaking, a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
A huge aura of terror enveloped his heart directly.
"Tell me, go through the process, or die directly?" Su Anran took the Sword Immortal Token given to him by Tang Shiyun and looked at the head of Tianluo Sect with a smile.
"Sword Immortal Order! Guanghan Sword Immortal!" the head of Tianluo Sect said with an ugly expression, "You are... Taiyigu Su Anran!"
"That's right, I didn't say it?...Oh, it seems I didn't say it, but you didn't ask either."
The head of Tianluo Sect looked like mmp: Where is the reckless man that he promised?
