Chapter 049 Murder
"Xu Xiaochen comes out quickly, come out quickly!"
Xu Xiaochen was sleeping in a daze, but heard someone shouting outside. He jumped up with a carp, opened the wooden door and saw that it was already dark, and a group of people were standing outside the stone house.
Among this group are Shen Bai, three of the four black leaves, fat Lei Wei, and the senior sister in yellow who was in charge of the team leader during the introductory test.
"What's going on? They're all here. Has the incident happened last night been exposed?" Xu Xiaochen was intimidated, but on the surface he looked confused.
I have been tortured by the blood gods and demons for many years. Even though I endured huge pain, I could maintain my mentality. At this moment, it is natural that I could hide my surprise and suspicion in my heart.
"What's the matter? I'm sleeping." Xu Xiaochen said lazyly.
"You know what's wrong? You killed your fellow disciple last night in order to revenge the cafeteria. Shen Bai and Lei Wei have confessed. Do you still want to argue?" Senior Sister Huang said coldly.
"Nonsense! What kind of fellow disciples? Don't swear by this girl. You know, Xu Xiaochen, is not very good at cultivation, but he is also a disciple of the Qingyun Sect. How can you insult you casually?" Xu Xiaochen was slightly stunned and shouted angrily.
Senior Sister Huangyi was stunned by his yelling, but was not angry, but instead smiled rarely.
"It's useless to say more. Search." said the senior sister in yellow.
Heiye Sanhu and several other outer disciples immediately broke into the stone house like tigers and wolves when they heard this.
"Fortunately, I hid the Baifu Sword outside. Otherwise, if I was searched this time, I would be hard to tell. However, after hearing the words of this senior sister, was the Black Ye Yihu killed? It's impossible. He just fainted last night. How could he die?" Xu Xiaochen was so glad that he couldn't help but wonder.
"One of the four black-leaf tigers died last night. It is said that when they were found in the wild this morning, only bones and torn clothes remained." Shen Bai said.
"How could the Sihu of Heiye died outside alone? And only bones remain. Did you encounter any ferocious beasts who like to eat people?" Xu Xiaochen thought with his eyes.
He was a little suspicious of Lei Wei, but as soon as Shen Bai said that, he immediately dispelled his suspicion.
"The remaining Black Leaf Three Hu suspected that we did it, so the sect came to investigate here. Alas, we are really unlucky. We had a conflict with the Black Leaf Four Hu not long ago, so we naturally became suspects." Lei Wei said depressedly.
"You really admit that you killed one of the four tigers of Heiye and brought me with you?" Xu Xiaochen said.
"Of course not." Shen Bai and Lei Wei said in unison.
"Then..." Xu Xiaochen looked at the yellow-clothed senior sister.
"What's the matter? I'm cheating you. Are you not convinced?" said the senior sister in yellow.
"I'm convinced, of course I'm convinced. Who dares not accept it? But senior sister, you can't just put this on the three of us without any evidence, right? We are all innocent people." Xu Xiaochen said angrily.
It was indeed wronged to say that they killed people. When they defended, they naturally felt as if they had been wronged, but the truth was definitely not to be said.
Once you say it, you can't wash it even if you jump into the sea.
"It's not that I doubt you, this is the decision of the sect. This time, an outer disciple died, and the entire Lingwu Peak was shocked. Not only you, but all the suspects must be thoroughly investigated!" Senior Sister Huangyi said coldly.
Lei Wei, Shen Bai, and Xu Xiaochen realized the seriousness of the matter and couldn't help but feel nervous. However, on the surface, they did not show any fear or anxiety.
"Report to senior sister. The Baicao Sword was not found. However, it is very likely that they had been hidden in other places. I suggest that the three of them be arrested and interrogated. We will definitely be able to find the Baicao Sword and find out the real murderer who killed the fourth brother." One of the Black Ye Sanhu said.
The fourth brother he mentioned was obviously the dead Hei Ye Yihu. The other two tigers also echoed. There was both sadness and hatred on their faces.
"No, how can you catch people casually? The dead junior brother lives with you, but dies alone in the wild at night. I think you three are also suspicious. Do you also want to arrest you three and question them?" A hint of disgust flashed in the beautiful eyes of the senior sister in yellow and said coldly.
There are only tens of thousands of outer disciples on Lingwu Peak. The Black Leaf Four Hu is notorious, but he has never been caught. Senior Sister Huangyi naturally doesn't like them.
Xu Xiaochen, Shen Bai, and Lei Wei all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. If the senior sister in yellow really believed the words of the Black Ye Sanhu, they would be really in danger!
"Since the Baicao Sword is not in the residence of the three of us, so we have nothing to do with us?" Fatty Lei Wei said happily.
Only then did Xu Xiaochen realize that Shen Bai and Lei Wei had experienced searches like him.
"Hmph. Don't be too happy too early. Everyone is suspected before the real murderer was found. Especially you three!" Senior sister in yellow looked at the fat man disdainfully and said coldly.
"From the death of that senior brother, he was obviously eaten by some wild beast. Why didn't the sect look for wild beasts, but instead came to investigate us innocent outer disciples?" Xu Xiaochen said in confusion.
"There are many outer disciples on Lingwu Peak. The slightly stronger and more ferocious beasts have been killed and scared away. Where can there be any beasts that can kill the third level of the junior brother of the fetus realm? Besides, if it is made by a wild beast, why will your Baicao Sword disappear? Do wild beasts also like Baicao Sword?" said the senior sister in yellow.
"It seems that my Baifu Sword cannot be used openly at any time. Since that's the case, why not find an opportunity to deal with it? If you are lucky, you can get a Qingyun Order." Xu Xiaochen thought to himself.
"Why didn't the murderer deal with it cleanly? Leave bones and clothes? In my opinion, it was probably because of the monster. However, someone might just happen to pass by and picked up Junior Brother Xu's Baicao Sword. Or, the Baicao Sword has been destroyed by the monster!" Fatty Lei Wei said seriously.
"There is this possibility. However, the Baicao Sword is almost the only clue for us. Those who have the Baicao Sword must have something to do with murder. Unfortunately, they are too stupid. After discovering this, they immediately caused a lot of controversy. It was already alarming the snake, and it was even more difficult to investigate again."
A handsome senior brother in the yellow clothes was around 20 years old next to the yellow sister, looking at Hei Ye Sanhu with disdain.
Obviously, the four tigers of Black Leaf acted in a bad way, had many enemies, and the murder was strange, so it was very difficult to thoroughly investigate the matter. The high-level outer disciples sent to Lingwu Peak were not the only senior sister in yellow.
"Since the matter in Lingwu Peak Cafeteria has been found out, the sect has found out that Heiye Sihu snatched my Baifu Sword in public and beat Senior Brother Shen Bai. Should the remaining Heiye Sanhu be compensated?" At this moment, Xu Xiaochen pretended to be loudly.
ps: I am ashamed, I have something to do these two days, and I will resume two updates tomorrow.
