Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Clear Goal

?

The Chai family members guarding the door made way, and Li Lingsu pushed open the half- open door, and the scenery inside came into view.

In a small house, there were two rows of straight corpses. They used to wear hoods, but now they were all removed and thrown on the ground.

Between the two rows of corpses were Chai Xing'er and three elders, one with sparse hair, one with a burly figure, and one with a broken arm.

Are these iron corpses? Li Lingsu moved his eyes and looked at the beautiful wife in a light blue dress.

The latter was also looking at him, his eyes were like clear autumn ponds, with some tenderness and some dissatisfaction: "Why are you here?"

"I heard that someone invaded the cellar last night, so I came to take a look."

Li Lingsu ignored the scrutinizing eyes of the three elders, walked to Chai Xing'er, and smiled: "Nothing is lost."

Chai Xing'er shook her head and turned to the three elders and said: "The thief can sneak into the Chai Mansion late at night without alarming the guards and disturbing the tribesmen guarding the cellar, which shows that he knows the environment and defense of the Chai Mansion very well."

A sparse-haired elder pondered: "Xing'er means, Chai Xian did it?"

"Who else besides him?" Chai Xing'er sneered and asked back.

The burly elder muttered to himself: "Take off the hoods of all the zombies. If nothing goes wrong, he is looking for someone... Who is he looking for?"

The broken-armed elder said calmly: "Xiao Lan has been missing for many days. Does he think that Xiao Lan is dead and has been transformed into a zombie? This kid is really crazy..."

Chai Xing'er was about to speak when she saw Li Lingsu standing in front of a corpse, silently examining it.

The corpse had clear facial features and was about 30 years old. I think he was a handsome man when he was alive.

"He is my husband."

Chai Xing'er said calmly.

Li Lingsu said "hmm", raised his hand and pinched the shoulder of the male corpse to confirm that it was an iron corpse.

"Three uncles..."

Chai Xing'er glanced at the three old men.

The elders nodded slightly and left the room for the time being.

After the wooden door was closed, Chai Xing'er walked to Li Lingsu, stood side by side with him, looked at the male corpse calmly, and said softly:

"I rarely talk to you about him."

"I don't want to know."

Li Lingsu turned and left.

"Li Lang..."

Chai Xing'er held him, her hands were cold, and her tone became a little anxious, saying: "It's not what you think."

Without waiting for Li Lingsu to speak, she explained very quickly:

"Back then, my eldest brother and him went out to do business, and they encountered revenge from their enemies on the way. He was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. In order to survive, my eldest brother refined him into an iron corpse, so he escaped and fled back with his tribe.

"After I knew about this, I had a quarrel with my eldest brother, and then ran away from home to relax, and soon I met you.

"It's not because I still have feelings for him that I turned him into an iron corpse and kept him by my side."

Li Lingsu was silent for a moment, and said, "I believe you."

"Chai Xing'er's ex-husband died at the hands of Chai Jianyuan and was turned into an iron corpse..."

In the inn, listening to Li Lingsu's "report", Xu Qian'an seemed to smell a family drama.

In this way, the possibility that Chai Xing'er was the real murderer behind the scenes increased a little.

Although her ex-husband was seriously injured at the time and his life was hanging by a thread, if he could not break the situation, being killed was the only outcome, but he died at the hands of Chai Jianyuan after all, and was turned into an iron corpse.

Well, being able to turn into an iron corpse immediately means that Chai Xing'er's ex- husband is at least a sixth-grade bronze skin and iron bones. Chai Jianyuan turned him into an iron corpse, and his enemies must have cursed in their hearts.

After finally killing one, she was revived in another way.....

"Ask the elders of the Chai family about her ex-husband."

"That's it?" Li Lingsu frowned.

"Yeah!"

Xu Qiyan took a sip of tea and nodded.

Li Lingsu was silent for a few seconds, and said helplessly: "If she is really the mastermind behind the scenes, what will you do?"

Xu Qiyan looked at him: "Brother murder, and murder, death penalty!"

Li Lingsu's face was a little ugly, and he was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice:

"I will abolish her cultivation, take her back to Tianzong, and never let her go down the mountain for the rest of my life. If you want to kill her, you can try to kill me first."

He cupped his hands and turned away.

"Tsk tsk, this Tianzong Saint Son is quite interesting."

Mu Nanzhi smiled and said, "With the purpose of being supreme and forgetful, he provoked

so many women. The ultimate goal is not to forget them. As a result, it seems that he has fallen in love with every woman."

So Tianzong wants to recycle counterfeit products. The Saint Son is taking an evil path...Xu Qi'an thought to himself.

Under the table, Mu Nanzhi kicked him lightly and said mischievously, "The romantic and passionate Xu Yinluo, if you were Li Lingsu, and there was such a confidante who committed a serious crime, what would you do?"

Xu Qi'an thought seriously and said, "If it was the confidante named Mu Nanzhi who committed a serious crime, I would definitely handle it impartially."

"What did you say!"

Mu Nanzhi was furious and made a fierce expression, as if she wanted to cut Xu Qi'an into

pieces.

But the next moment, the anger on her face was replaced by embarrassment, her face turned red, and she spat, "What nonsense are you talking about."

Who is your confidante? Shameless!

Thump, thump, thump... She stepped on his instep under the table.

After she had finished venting her anger, Xu Qiyan said:

"Just now I was just perfunctory to Li Lingsu, just giving him some work to do. For us, investigating the case is not important, getting the dragon energy is the key."

The case is not urgent, Chai Xian has been wronged for so long anyway, so he doesn't care about this moment. But the monks Jingxin and Jingyuan are also in Xiangzhou, it's like there's

a tiger in the bed.

The threat is too great.

He and the pagoda spirit of the pagoda have made three rules, not to use it against Buddhist disciples, but to protect himself, such as shrinking into the pagoda and driving the pagoda to

escape.

In other words, Xu Qiyan can only keep himself undefeated at most, and lacks the strength to

fight hard.

In this case, if Chai Xian meets Jingxin and others face to face, the fact that Chai Xian is the host of the dragon energy will definitely not be concealed.

Since the Buddhist sect entered the Central Plains to collect dragon energy, there must be a

way to identify the host of dragon energy.

Therefore, the real urgency is not the case, but to find Chai Xian.

"By the way, how is the cultivation of the nine-color lotus root."

Mu Nanzhi proudly "hummed", tilted his face, and raised his chin: "Within three months, it will be completely mature, and in another three months, it will produce lotus seeds." As expected of the reincarnation of the flower god, the progress is very fast. There is no rush

for lotus seeds. First, cut the lotus root to the old man of the Wulin League to help him break through the barrier and enter the second grade......Xu Qiyan nodded with satisfaction, and

then said:

"In a few days, the national teacher may come to me and have something to do. Well, I may leave her for a few days at that time."

Hearing this, Mu Nanzhi turned his head and frowned: "What?"

"Just, just do things..."

"Hmm?"

Just do things, didn't I say......Xu Qiyan lowered his head to drink tea

Mu Nanzhi looked at him suspiciously and muttered, "You are so mysterious. Tell me what's

going on. She is not easy to get along with, but I have a very good relationship with her and

can mediate between you."

Ah, this, Princess, let's try this kind of thing after we are familiar with each other... Xu Qi'an

evaded the question casually and changed the subject:

"I'm going out for a while."

Xu Qi'an changed into an ordinary cotton robe and left the inn.

He planned to instigate Chai Xian to confront Chai Xing'er at the Demon Slaughter Conference. Chai Xian would definitely not show up in person, and would most likely control the zombies, but there is a distance limit for controlling zombies.

With Xu Qi'an's current range of perception of dragon energy, he only needs to control the pagoda to look down from the air, and it is not difficult to find Chai Xian's hiding place.

Chai Mansion.

In the courtyard where Buddhist monks stayed, Chai Xing'er drank a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said with her head tilted:

"Master Jingxin, I hope you can come forward to uphold justice at tomorrow's demon-killing meeting and call on people in the righteous way to join hands to eradicate Chai Xian, the

ungrateful person."

Zhangzhou is one of the granaries of Dafeng. Although there are relatively poor places like Xiangzhou, it is generally well-fed and well-clothed.

It is well known that the richer the place, the weaker the fighting power of the local people.

The poorer the mountains and the more bad the water, the more likely it is to produce fierce and unruly people.

In addition, the court attaches great importance to the grain-producing areas of Zhangzhou, and intends to suppress the forces of the underworld and prevent the birth of large underworld gangs.

As a result, the martial arts in Zhangzhou have never been prosperous since ancient times,

and fourth-grade masters are rare.

"We have been traveling in the Central Plains, and we are deeply saddened by what has

happened in Xiangzhou recently."

Jingxin said slowly: "It's a pity that the Dafeng court banned the Buddhist missionaries,

which led to constant natural disasters and man-made disasters in Dafeng, and the people were suffering and refugees were everywhere."

The two monks standing beside him put their hands together and chanted the Buddha's name

in a low voice, as if the fact was just like this.

If Dafeng had allowed Buddhism to preach in the Central Plains earlier, the world would not

have become so uneasy.

After chatting for a few more words, Chai Xing'er said goodbye and left.

Jingyuan said: "This case is quite suspicious. Chai Xian's actions are inconsistent. Brother, can

you use the precepts to ask Chai Xing'er, the donor?"

"You also suspect it was her?" Jingxin smiled.

"It's not difficult for us to investigate the case. Xu Qi'an is known as a genius in solving cases

in Dafeng, but he just used strange and tricky skills." Jingyuan said proudly.

Jingxin nodded, and then said:

"If we ask the donor Chai Xing'er now, what if she killed the person? If the whole Chai

Mansion is under her control, our move is to make enemies with the Chai Mansion. If we want to ask according to the precepts, we have to do it at the Demon Slaughtering Conference tomorrow.

"In addition, I will not act rashly before meeting Chai Xian. You should also remember this."

Seeing that several young monks seemed to understand but not quite, most of them were confused, the monk Jingyuan laughed and explained for Jingxin: "Before, Chai Xing'er said that Chai Xian's cultivation was inexplicably rapid, which was quite

interesting. I was anxious to let my senior brother test it with the precepts, just to find out the

truth.

"If what she said is true, then Chai Xian is very likely the host of the dragon energy. But if she is lying, it is not the best time to fall out now, tomorrow is a good time."

Xu Qian'an followed his memory and came to the small village, and followed his memory to

the house where Chai Xian hid last night.

The man in the family went out to work. In the yard, a young woman was drying clothes, and a

girl about ten years old was picking vegetable leaves.

Seeing the strange visitor, the mother and daughter were a little nervous and alert.

The young woman hesitated and said in slang: "Who are you looking for?"

.........Xu Qian'an said: "Can you speak Mandarin?"

"I can speak it. I learned it from the scholar in the village."

The little girl said with a bit of boasting.

She was wearing a tattered cotton jacket with traces of many mending. Probably because of

malnutrition, her face was a little sallow.
