My brother is wicked in the five elements

Chapter 114 The Study of Scarlet Characters
Xu Tianming and others looked over, and asked Li Shishi calmly.

"A person whose heart has been pierced and is about to die, how would he think of leaving a message?"

Master Li thought for a moment and replied, "Nature is the most effective method."

"In other words, it's the method she's most familiar with, right?" Xu Tianming persuasively said.

The most familiar method?
After hearing this statement, everyone was startled!
That's right, Liu Xueshi is a talented woman who pays little attention to court affairs, and definitely would not think of using her official rank to leave her last words.

It was they who were preconceived just now and walked into a misunderstanding.
Everyone looked at Xu Tianming with a hint of admiration in their eyes.

This kid has something.
Li Shishi even looked at Xu Tianming with approving eyes, and nodded slightly: "Then, in your opinion, what is the meaning of this bloody word?"

"It's very simple," Xu Tianming said still calmly, "These numbers should be hidden in the favorite things of the deceased. Only in this way, others can immediately understand what she meant."

favorite thing?
Master Li frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly a flash of light flashed across her mind.

She got it.

"Come here, quickly fetch the "Those Things in the Tang Dynasty" from the collection of the Imperial Academy, and show it to the palace!" Li Shishi instructed his subordinates, and his tone made people feel that the matter was urgent.

After receiving the order from the eldest princess, several Prisoners from Dali Temple rushed to the Hanlin Academy.

"His Royal Highness, why is this?" Chen Fuyin still hasn't figured it out yet, how could this mystery of blood characters be related to ancient books?
Master Li patiently explained.

"This Palace once heard from my father that Xueshi Liu has been repairing this ancient book recently, and has spent a lot of thought. If the guess is correct, the numbers left by Xueshi Liu should respectively represent the number in this ancient book. The page number, line number, sub-column, and the corresponding text! She is afraid that the murderer will find out, so she can only pass it on to us in such an obscure way."

It is so!

Everyone's faces were filled with shock. On the other side, Chen Fuyin and Dali Siqing looked at each other, and their expressions changed slightly.

They looked at Xu Tianming, their eyes revealing their recognition and admiration for this young man.

However, he looked like he was in his early twenties, and he had never even been to the scene of the crime. He could crack such a major case just by hearing.

He is indeed a master of crimes in the world!

The colleagues in the Tianxun Mansion admired and admired Xu Tianming even more. This is the ability to solve cases like a god in front of the eldest princess and the governor!

He is still so young, and his career in the future is limitless!
Be sure to have a good relationship with him!

Xu Tianming looked at the scorching gazes around him, and felt as if he was surrounded by male ketones.
Soon, the Prisoners of Dali Temple left and returned, and they presented a thick ancient book to Master Li.

Li Shishi quickly searched according to the string of numbers, and Chen Fuyin and Dali Siqing leaned forward to help them find together.

"First page, first row, fourth column."

"West!"

"Page five, row one, column four."

"north!"

Followed by the remaining two words: mine, mountain.

Northwest Mine
Chen Fuyin's eyes brightened, and he murmured, "It's the small mine in the northwest of Chang'an City."

Li Shishi frowned slightly, feeling that it seemed a bit tricky, and said: "In any case, I have to go and check it myself."

"Then the official will go with His Highness." Chen Fu Yin nodded and said.

Afterwards, a group of people walked quickly towards the northwest of Chang'an City.
The Northwest Mine is a copper mine, but its mineral resources are not rich.

Xu Tianming carried a shiny lighting stone and followed the large group down the mine.

"Master Fu Yin, Your Royal Highness, this mine is almost exhausted. After a while, we will leave." A tall and thin man rubbed his hands, nodded and bowed to Li Shishi and Chen Fu Yin .

Chen Fuyin looked around and saw that the copper mine in the cave was indeed about to bottom out, so he asked, "Who is the person in charge here?"

The thin and tall man chuckled and replied, "My lord, it's Sun Wu Sun Baihu."

"Where are the others?" Li Shishi asked the man, his side face in the weak light source, looking more serious.

"Er Sun Baihu asked for leave a few days ago, saying that his mother was critically ill and went home."

"." When Li Shishi asked this, he didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and pointed at several deeper holes, "Search for me!"

Except for the guards with knives, the rest of Dali Temple and Tianxun Mansion belonged to all the entrances of the caves, and began to search.

Soon.

There will be results.

"Suspicious minerals have been found here!"

Following the fast catcher, everyone came to the depths of a cave, and saw a quarried rock wall, in which a faint dark blue light was shining.

Dali Siqing inspected these dark blue minerals with his spiritual energy, his face turned cold, and he shouted involuntarily.

"This is the magic crystal mine!"

Hearing this sentence, everyone gasped.

hiss! ——

Magic crystal is an ore that contains the aura of ancient monsters. It is different from high-grade spar and cannot be absorbed by the human body, but there is an exception——

The Realm of the Three Immortals of the Demon Cult!
That's right.

The human immortals, earth immortals, and heavenly immortals of the Demon Cult already exist beyond the mortal body. This kind of magic crystal mine is a great tonic for them.

"They are members of the Demon Cult. They concealed the news that there are magic crystals in this copper mine, and secretly mined them." The eldest princess took the dark blue ore and inspected it, and said.

"This mine will be routinely inspected every three months. Without the assistance of the people above, they would not be able to hide it. Unless," Chen Fuyin took a breath, his eyes fixed, and he came to a conclusion.

"Unless there are spies in the Ministry of Industry!"

The six ministries of the Tang Dynasty each performed their duties, and the Ministry of Industry was in charge of construction projects, and the Ministry of Industry was in charge of large and small mining areas.If no one in the Ministry of Industry secretly approved the song, the mining of this mine could not go on smoothly.

Xu Tianming listened silently.

"The Zongmen sent me to investigate these matters, and I didn't expect to have clues as soon as I came."

But having said that, what do the people of the Demon Cult want these magic crystals for?
Before Xu Tianming could think about it, Chen Fuyin gave an order.

"Take all the miners here and wait to be dealt with!"

Then all the arresters swarmed out and arrested the miners.

Li Shishi looked down at this deep magic crystal mine, frowned and thought for a moment, then turned and said to Chen Fuyin and Dali Siqing.

"Arrest Sun Baihu as soon as possible. This person is an important witness in this case." Immediately, she turned to look at Xu Tianming and said.

"You go with me."
