Chapter 23
When Cao Yan said that he had lost 50 spirit stones, Zhang Chi knew that there was some water in it.

After all, with 50 spirit stones, it takes a lot of effort to carry them.

However, since the matter has become serious, it doesn't matter how much or how little is stolen. The Hezuo League will do whatever it takes to track it down, and maybe even borrow some powerful spiritual weapons.

After all, this is a world of cultivating immortals. If things are hidden, they will not be exposed. Whether they can be found depends on whether the price is high enough.

This is why Zhang Chi subconsciously thought of running away.

Run early, if they run far away, they won't be able to catch up even if they know.

But he never expected that these people really dare!
How many spirit stones can two sacks hold?
How many spirit stones can he hold under his bed?
Before Zhang Chi had wondered if such a big commotion was caused, could it be that the second child secretly hid the Lingshi in another place, and secretly felt that he had become rich suddenly.

In this way, it doesn't matter if you run away with money.He has even planned how to escape safely and live in another place.

But two sacks can hold five hundred, so they dare to report a loss of 50?

Crazy?
Only a thief can know how wronged a thief is.

At this moment, Zhang Chi didn't plan to run away.

Whatever you run, if you dare to covet Lao Tzu's money, you will die!

Bone Youyou: "..."

Although it is a bit outrageous to say that these people are not greedy for your money, are they?

This was the first time that Gu Youyou saw Zhang Chi so angry, but the reasons for her anger were also outrageous.

As a demon, Gu Youyou often feels that she can't keep up with the thinking of this group of humans.

Cao Yan and Qinghui have already explained the situation, the thieves stole 50 spirit stones quietly, and no clues were found at the scene.

Tang Feng's heart moved, and he said, "Could it be because the little girl was rescued by Zhang Xiaoyou, and the thief held a grudge, so he deliberately retaliated?"

Zhang Chi: "..."

If he didn't know that Tang Feng was a bit naive, he would even suspect that Tang Feng was with them.

From the thief's perspective, Zhang Chi could see it more clearly.

There is no doubt that Cao Yan and Qinghui must be participants in corruption, and the group of foundation-building monks who participated in patrolling Lingshi Cave must also be participants in interests.

With 50 spirit stones, what a fortune it must be to distribute to the hands. It is very simple to buy people's hearts.

What's more, with Cao Yan and Qinghui colluding, those who are disobedient may not survive.

Zhang Chi knew it well, but it was not easy to accuse them.

According to the usual practice, Jiang Qingyun should have asked his opinion, otherwise there was no need to call him over.

Zhang Chi was already ready to perform, but Jiang Qingyun said: "Vice Hall Master Zhou, what do you think about this matter?"

Sectional Master Zhou's name is Zhou You, who is Chongxu's son, Zhou Ran's father, and a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Baihutang is the fighting department of the Hezuo League. There are two hall masters, namely the Pill Hall and the Refining Pavilion, but they are only in name and supervision.

It was Zhou You, the vice hall master, who actually handled the affairs.

Zhou You was able to sit in this position, of course it was supported by the elder, in order to restrain Jiang Qingyun's power.

When Jiang Qingyun heard that the spirit stone was stolen and the amount was so large, she didn't intend to let Zhang Chi get involved.

Under normal circumstances, for such a major case as the theft of spirit stones, Zhang Chi, a disciple with condensed energy, is not qualified to participate.

But he had just rescued Tang Ruoling, and the perpetrator of the theft of the Lingshi this time might be the same thief as before, and with the strong recommendation of the elder, Jiang Qingyun had no choice but to let Zhang Chi come to this alliance.

The Great Elder can ask Zhang Chi to participate, but Jiang Qingyun still has the power to decide who will be in charge of the investigation.

Jiang Qingyun also gave Zhang Chi a look while speaking.

Don't worry about it.

When Zhou You heard Jiang Qingyun's question, his mind was still in a mess, what did he think?
But Zhou You is also an old man, I can't do it myself, I can let others do it!

"I heard that our sect has a case-solving wizard, why don't you listen to his opinion first?"

Everyone's eyes were successfully shifted to Zhang Chi, and Jiang Qingyun gave another warning with his eyes.

Disciple, the water here is too deep, you can't handle it!

Jiang Qingyun is not stupid, those who steal petty things are thieves, those who steal so much are called big thieves, and when this amount is reached, investigating them will become a dangerous thing.

Zhang Chi is only in the condensate period, what should he do if he is retaliated against?
However, Zhang Chi didn't seem to understand her hint, and took a step calmly. Just this step, his momentum was completely different from before, like a sharp sword drawn out of its sheath.

I am sworn to death with evil!

Seriously this time!

Seeing his righteous and dignified appearance, Jiang Qingyun had a premonition that it was over.

Zhang Chi didn't make trouble as soon as he came out, but first saluted Zhou Xun, thanking him for his approval.

Seeing it, Jiang Qingyun wanted to roll her eyes.

Are you stupid?He is trying to harm you and you should thank him!
After Zhang Chi thanked Zhou You, he looked at Cao Yan and Qing Hui again, bowed his hands and said, "I have a few questions, can I ask the two seniors?"

Cao Yan seemed very nervous, which is reasonable, he lost so many spirit stones when he was the cave master, he will suffer an old crime this time.

Qinghui is more calm.

An elder in the realm of spirit and soul is a treasure to every sect.If there is no evidence, no one can do anything to him.

This is why he dared to be greedy so much.

Zhang Chi's etiquette is in place, and it's not easy for them to refuse in the public, so as not to cause complications.

Seeing that they all agreed, Zhang Chi said to Cao Yan, "Dare to ask Cave Master Cao, is the warehouse count yesterday correct?"

It is common sense that the warehouse must be counted and recorded every day. Of course, only relevant personnel know this kind of common sense.

Zhang Chi has studied extensively, so he naturally knows this rule.

Cao Yan hurriedly said: "There is no problem when counting."

"When was the count completed?"

"About You time."

"It was Yin time when the theft was discovered. In other words, during this period of time, the thief stole 50 spirit stones from the warehouse, right?"

Cao Yan thought for a while, Zhang Chi was a summary of their statement, and there was no problem, so he nodded.

Zhang Chi looked at Qinghui again, and said, "Elder Qinghui was stationed in the warehouse last night?"

When Zhang Chi asked, he got to the point.

Think about it, 50 spirit stones were stolen under the nose of a strong soul, isn't it too outrageous?

So Zhang Chi guessed that he should admit a small mistake and create evidence of his alibi.

Sure enough, Elder Qinghui hesitated for a moment before replying with some embarrassment: "I stayed in the Red Boat last night."

Red Boat, that is, a high-end club, the employees are all monks with low cultivation, they only have a good appearance, and they serve people with sex. They are professional.

Because the water transportation in this area of ​​the Panlong River Basin is particularly developed, the practitioners usually take the waterway and can drive the boat to various places. In order to separate them from those transporting boats, the appearance of this type of boat is painted red and festive, so The name Red Boat.

It wasn't a big deal for the elder to stay overnight in the red boat.

Xiuxian asked, isn't there another question?
What's more, monks in the realm of spirit and soul mainly train their minds.

Asking, it can be regarded as a kind of state of mind practice.

After Zhang Chi listened to it, he knew what Qinghui was going to say. It is estimated that the witnesses from the Red Boat had already prepared it.

Under normal circumstances, he might be able to fool the past.

But Zhang Chi reversed the process with the answer. He directly skipped the suspicion stage and confirmed that Qinghui was a thief. The more Qinghui prepared, the more flaws he would have...
