Chapter 150 Xuanyue Mountain Spirit Mine ([-])
"If you can trick Xiao Si into shutting down the formation, you must be someone he trusts very much. You might as well focus on investigating these people. Senior He, how many monks are there in the entire spiritual mine?" Fang Xiangming asked.
He Zhijie said: "There are more than [-] monks who established the foundation, and about a hundred monks who refined Qi."

Yu Muqing said: "Since everyone has arrived, let's start the formal investigation! I suggest to form a group of three, with one sect disciple in each group, to investigate the disciples of the Spirit Mine one by one. Everyone has to write a dossier report and hand it over to the three of us."

Both He and Jiang nodded in agreement.

The people were divided into fifteen groups, and they were divided into groups of three with corresponding positions.

The other two members of Tangning's trio were Wang Zongwang from the Qingyang Sect's intelligence department and Jiang Biyu from the Shuiyun Sect's intelligence department.

In the interrogation room, the three of them were sitting directly above them. After waiting for a while, a burly man walked in. This man was nearly nine feet tall, with a protruding body and a ferocious face. He was different from ordinary people. It was Tangning twenty years ago. Yu Feixiong, the Shuiyun Zong Feiyao who met in the trial ground, never thought that he would meet here again today.

"Senior brother Yu, sit down!" Jiang Biyu introduced: "I am Jiang Biyu from the intelligence department, and this is fellow Daoist Tang Ning of Qianyi Zong, this fellow Daoist Wang Zongwang of Qingyang Zong, today we are asked by the sect to ask you The specific situation of the Lingmine being attacked by the demon sect that day."

Yu Feixiong glanced over the three of them and nodded.

Jiang Biyu said: "Friend Daoist Tang, friend Daoist Wang, then, let's start now!"

The two nodded their greetings, Wang Zongwang took out a phonogram and pointed at it, the talisman was activated and shimmered with ink.

"Brother Yu, first tell me about the situation that day and what you were doing at that time?"

Yu Feixiong said: "At that time I was practicing in the cave, and I heard the noise of fighting outside, I didn't pay much attention to it at first, until the alarm bell sounded, I hurried out of the cave, and I saw everyone from the Demon Sect fighting with the disciples of the Spirit Mine , I jumped into the air, and a disciple of the Demon Sect stared at me and started fighting with me."

"The advantage of the Demon Sect is overwhelming. I dare not stay here, so I ran towards the west. The disciple of the Demon Sect chased me for a while and stopped chasing me. After I returned to the sect, I met with Uncle Yu Come here together."

Wang Zongwang said: "Have you been in the cave all day?"

"Actually, I hadn't been out of the cave for four or five days at that time."

"Can anyone prove it?"

"No, I'm the only one in the cave."

"What is your position in the Spirit Mine? Which aspect is in charge?"

"In charge of Lingshi statistics and liquidation."

"The spirit mine guard formation is closed, do you know?"

"I don't know, I stayed in the cave all the time, and I didn't leave the cave until the alarm bell sounded."

"What do you think about this?"

"I didn't think about it that much at the time, and I found it strange afterwards. I heard that it was Brother Xiao who shut down the formation. I agree with the sect. There must be a secret operation of the Demon Sect, which tricked Senior Brother Xiao into closing the formation."

"You all come from Shuiyun Sect, you should have a good relationship with Xiao Sihua!"

"I was originally a disciple of the Hushan Division. Brother Xiao was a disciple of the Yuanyi Palace. Before I came here, I had no contact with him. Since then, I have only met occasionally, so I can't talk about close friends. Besides, I am not a demon. Many people in the sect Care about that."

Tangning asked, "Fellow Daoist Yu, how long have you been here?"

"It's been five years since then."

"Then you should know who Xiao Sihua is close to on weekdays, or, to be more straightforward, who do you suspect? Just now you also said that there is a secret operation of the Demon Sect in the Spirit Mine."

"I don't know, but I think Senior Brother Xiao can be tricked into shutting down the formation, either someone he trusts very much, or someone who is quite famous in the formation. I am neither of these."

"When was the last time you saw Xiao Sihua?"

"About a month before the spirit mine was attacked, he went to the storage room to check the number of spirit stones."

"Have you seen who killed Xiao Sihua?"

"No, there were fights everywhere at the time, and everyone had to take care of themselves, not others."

The three of them carefully interrogated for more than half an hour, and finally there was nothing to interrogate, Jiang Biyu said: "Senior Brother Yu, we are just a routine sect's account, and we are not suspicious of you but careful work, please forgive me, please go back! There are other people to ask when I come down."

After Yu Feixiong left, Jiang Biyu took out a roll of paper: "Fellow Daoist Tang, fellow Daoist Wang, what do you think?"

Tang Ning said: "I think the possibility of him working for the Demon Sect can be basically ruled out. According to what he said, he has nothing to do with Xiao Si's words. As a non-monster, he is soft-spoken. This point must be clearer than I am. Thinking about what Xiao Si said, fellow Taoists are wary of him, and he would not listen to his one-sided words and shut down the formation that is related to the safety of the entire spiritual mine.

"And he said that he hadn't been out of the cave for four or five days. If he lied, it would be easy to be exposed. If someone saw him go out, wouldn't that be the same as voluntarily admitting that he was the secret agent of the Demon Sect? I think his words are true of."

"Of course, if it is said that there is more than one member of the Demon Sect's Secret Worker, then it is not confirmed. At least it is certain that he was not the one who tricked fellow Taoist Xiao Sihua into closing the formation."

Wang Zongwang said: "I see the same thing as Fellow Daoist Tang."

Jiang Biyu said: "In that case, I will write down our conclusion and submit it to my uncle."

The two nodded their heads and said good-bye. Not long after, a beautiful female monk walked in from the door...

The three interrogated the four disciples continuously, and they didn't finish until late at night. After returning to their rooms, they were called by Fang Xiang again, and came to the Yishi Hall.

Not long after, a few more people arrived one after another. Fang Xiangming said after seeing everyone, "Today's preliminary investigation has been completed. I invite all juniors to come here to ask if there are any new discoveries or issues related to today's interrogation." Suspicious people, we will conduct a detailed investigation of suspicious disciples tomorrow."

"There is a question worth thinking about." Xuande Palace Ma Quan said

"Oh? What did Junior Brother Ma discover?"

"I questioned several people, and they all said that they didn't see when and where Xiao Sihua was murdered. I wonder if any of the disciples who have been interrogated by you have seen it?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Ma Quan said: "That's strange. The reason why we know Xiao Sihua was murdered is because his soul stone in Shuiyunzong was destroyed, but no one witnessed his murder. Where did his body go? I asked I met many disciples, and they all told me that when the Demon Sect raided the Shaling Mine, there was chaos and corpses were everywhere, including the corpses of the disciples of the Blood Bone Sect, but why only Xiao Sihua's corpse was not seen."

"The Blood Bone Sect is not the Corpse Puppet Sect. It's useless for them to ask for corpses, and the sound transmission array was still intact at that time. The Blood Bone Sect should know the sound transmission array, otherwise they would not have withdrawn so decisively."

"They planned it carefully. They knew that Qingyangzong's rescue would arrive within an hour or two. In such an urgent and short period of time, they killed Xiao Sihua and even specially cremated his body? Isn't it strange?"

When he said this, everyone was a little surprised and whispered.

Fang Xiangming asked doubtfully, "What does Junior Brother Ma mean?"

"If the Mozong still has to deal with Xiao Sihua's corpse in such an urgent and short period of time, then his corpse may explain some problems. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he was twisted into a fleshy pulp during the fight, and we can even If we make a bold guess, Xiao Sihua might have died before the Mozong attacked."

"So the central formation plate fell into the hands of Mozong Xizuo, who contacted the Blood Bone Sect after Master He left, and then closed the formation. Shuiyunzong confirmed that his death was after the Mozong attacked. Check the disciple's life The fact that the soul stone found him dead does not prove that the actual time of his death was after the demon sect attacked."

"Senior Brother Ma is right." Yuan Yidian Zhao Yidao: "I have always felt that the timing was too coincidental. The Demon Sect came after a quarter of an hour after the formation was closed. According to Senior He, he left the spirit on July [-]th. Mine, the Demon Sect will come on the thirteenth day of the seventh month."

"It's only been less than a day since Mozong's secret work contacted the Blood Bone Gate and it attacked the Spirit Mine. Let's think about it from the perspective of the Blood Bone Gate. What will we do if we want to attack the Spirit Mine? .”

"Although we don't know the hidden location of the Blood Bone Sect General Altar for the time being, even if they have long planned to attack the Spirit Mine and carefully planned for a long time, two conditions must be met to complete this matter."

"First, Senior He left the Spirit Mine. Second, the formation of the Spirit Mine was closed."

"And the time when Uncle He will leave the Spirit Mine is a completely uncertain factor. It may leave in the next two days, or it may not leave in a year or two. It is impossible for the Demon Sect to gather disciples to be on standby at any time."

"That is to say, the Evil Sect sent a message to the Blood Bone Sect, and the Blood Bone Sect has to gather manpower to attack the spirit mine. It only takes less than a day. Isn't this too fast? Let alone they are so sure Persuade Xiao Sihua to close the formation."

"It took less than a quarter of an hour for the formation to be closed, and they happened to catch up. Isn't all this a coincidence?"

Fang Xiangming tapped his finger on the stone table slowly and said, "Junior Brother Zhao, what do you mean? Xiao Sihua is already dead? The center of the formation plate fell into the hands of the Demon Sect, so they planned this plan to attack the spirit mine." , the Blood Bone Gate has long been hiding nearby, just waiting for them to act as soon as Senior He leaves?"
