Normally.

When practitioners embark on the path of practice, they will have less and less interaction with ordinary people.

Unless there are specific situations, such as the refining of the heart of the world.

Otherwise, both practitioners and ordinary people are destined to be people with different worlds and disconnected.

Due to the practice of practice.

It is undeniable that there are evil practitioners in this world who want to take shortcuts in their practice.

Many of the evil cultivators will improve their strength by harming ordinary people.

only--

Once such evil cultivators appear, they will often become the target of orthodox practitioners who will eliminate them.

So much so that the evil cultivators in the Qingwei Realm hide around like mice in the gutter. Even if they harm ordinary people, they will choose to stay in remote areas.

As for places like the Jade Ding Dynasty Imperial City.

Evil cultivators are just a violation of the harmony of their practice, but it does not mean that there is something wrong with the evil cultivators' mind.

They would only cause trouble in the imperial city of the Yuding Dynasty if they had long lives.

It is even more impossible for orthodox practitioners to harm ordinary people easily.

If there is no right reason.

Once an orthodox practitioner harms a large number of ordinary people for no reason, he will inevitably end up being disgraced and betrayed by others, and even his own practice will be seriously affected, which is simply called being deviled.

So--

Who secretly harmed so many ordinary people in the imperial city?

There is no doubt.

The most suspicious one is the demon.

The problem is that the demons are not crazy. No demons can be hidden in the imperial city, and what reason does the demons have to harm these ordinary people?

Nian Fan had many doubts in his heart.

But he had no intention of pursuing the roots.

At most, he would only inform the Demon Suppressing Office in secret ways to the Demon Suppressing Office in charge of this matter.

However, he didn't know that his every move had already been under the surveillance of the Demon-Shenzhen Department.

"Haha, I didn't expect this little guy to discover the strangeness behind it even earlier than you..."

When Xia Mingyuan heard the report from the Supervisory Office.

A smile appeared on his face.

He naturally knew about this strange collective suicide case in the Imperial City, and even attracted a certain degree of attention from Xia Mingyuan.

Surprisingly, before the Demon Suppression Department found out anything, Nian Fan, who was ordered to monitor him, was able to make a mistake.

This is undoubtedly a very slap in the face for the Demon-Suppressing Department.

But Xia Mingyuan did not blame Si Shu, who was responsible for investigating the matter, but only asked him to find out the culprit behind the scenes in the shortest time.

result.

As the investigation deepens.

The Demon-Suppressing Office was shocked to find that the culprit behind this case actually involved the royal family.

at first.

The Demon-Shenzhen Department, who obtained the clue, quickly investigated all the beating people in the imperial city, and at the same time discovered the problem from some beating people, because these transformed beating people were the culprits who quietly controlled the minds of the suicides.

Whenever the gong sounds.

There will be a special audio sound from the sound of the gong.

After the gong sounds in the third update.

Any ordinary person who receives this audio will be mentally affected and then commit suicide like a sleepwalking without any awareness.

The gongs that beat the new people were distributed uniformly by the Imperial City Sikuanghu Cao.

That is to say.

There is a problem with the gong.

It means that there is a problem with Kuratoshi.

When the Demon Suppressing Department went to Kuratoka to investigate.

Unexpectedly, the chief clerk in charge of the Kurakuoka died mysteriously at home.

The clue seems to be broken again, but for the Demon-Suppressing Department, the death of a chief clerk does not mean that they can't continue to investigate.

After many investigations and interrogations.

Kurato Cao did repurchase a batch of gongs before.

The person in charge of the purchase was the strangely dead Guao Cao Zhuan.

As for where the gong was purchased, no one knows, because the chief clerk is responsible for it.

But no matter how secret the chief clerk is, it will inevitably leave clues.

The Demon-Suppressing Department immediately began to investigate along this aspect, and soon locked in the origin of the gong.

It is reported that.

The gong comes from an ordinary workshop outside the imperial city.

According to the results of the interrogation.

A few days ago, the workshop received a large customer and customized thousands of gongs in one go.

And it is described by the description of the people in the workshop.

This so-called great customer turned out to be a idle rogue in the imperial city.

When the Demon-Suppressing Department found this rogue, the other party claimed that a mysterious man had given him a lot of money and asked him to go to a workshop outside the city to customize thousands of gongs, and then transported the customized gongs to an inconspicuous house in the city as the other party told him.

The scoundrels in the market dare not greed for this money. It is nothing more than the scoundrels who have been in the market all year round know that mysterious people are people they cannot provoke. However, he is addicted to gambling and is reluctant to give the rewards given by the other party, so he simply agreed.

After successfully transporting the customized gong to the designated home.

The rogue in the market is careful.

Perhaps I was worried that the mysterious person would kill someone to silence him afterwards.

He had observed the other person carefully without leaving any trace when he was in contact with the mysterious man.

Unintentionally.

He once saw a strangely decorated jade pendant hanging around the other person's waist.

After writing down the strange pattern of this jade pendant.

He then found someone to draw the patterns and began to inquire.

However, the results of the inquiry scared the scoundrel.

because--

The patterns of this jade pendant come from the royal family.

In other words, only the royal family is qualified to wear jade pendants with this kind of decoration.

pity.

At that time, the mysterious man was wearing a veil of a hat and hiding his true face.

So this rogue cannot describe the other person's appearance.

The clue came to an abrupt end here.

After all, when it comes to the royal family, the Demon-Suppressing Department dared not continue to investigate, so it could only report to Xia Mingyuan first.

Xia Mingyuan directly reported the results of the investigation to the emperor of the dynasty and ignored it.

If this matter really involves the royal family and concerns the face of the royal family, the next thing will naturally be left to the royal family to decide and handle.

"Do you know who is the culprit behind this incident? After all, there are so many people who have died, so you should give an explanation to those innocent people, right?"

When this matter came to an end.

Dou Yao, who heard about this, suddenly came to Xia Mingyuan.

"I have no idea."

Facing Dou Yao’s questioning.

Xia Mingyuan's answer was very straightforward.

"There are some things you don't know under this imperial city?"

Dou Yao frowned and said.

"If it involves the royal family, there are indeed some things under this imperial city that I don't know."

Xia Mingyuan said lightly.

"In other words, the culprit behind the murder of more than 100,000 innocent people this time is really the royal family?"

Dou Yao said in a deep voice.

"If the culprit behind the scenes is indeed a royal family, things will be worse than you and I think."

Xia Mingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
