Chapter 556: Chapter 556: Suicide
?
Chai Xing'er showed an innocent and bewildered smile: "What do you mean, Senior Xu?"
"What do you mean?" Xu Qian'an asked with a smile: "Aren't you the mastermind behind all this?"
Li Lingsu's face changed slightly.
Jingxin and other monks also looked over in surprise, including Jingyuan who had woken up and looked pale.
Chai Xing'er shook her head: "Senior, you misunderstood me."
The woman is worthy of being an actress. Her eyes and tone are sincere and innocent, and there is no trace of guilt.
You are pretending in front of the dignified Master Xu Yinluo... Xu Qian'an said, "Heh": "Don't rush to deny it, listen to me.
"During this period of time, I have investigated Chai Jianyuan's case quite deeply. Let's sort out the case from the beginning. First of all, according to your statement, Chai Jianyuan was killed by Chai Xian in the study at night. When you arrived, you saw Chai Xian and Chai Jianyuan in the room.
"And the latter is already dead, right?"
Chai Xing'er nodded: "This is something that everyone in the Chai Mansion has witnessed. Senior, do you think I am lying?"
"Of course you are not lying. What you saw is true, but it may not be the truth."
Xu Qian'an said: "Chai Jianyuan and Chai Xian are both fifth-grade Huajin, with strong defense. Even if Chai Xian attacked unexpectedly, it would be impossible to kill Chai Jianyuan in a short time. However, when you arrived, Chai Jianyuan was already dead. The Chai Mansion is so small."
Li Lingsu's eyes lit up slightly, and he remembered what Xu Qian'an said: "It was poisoning. Chai Jianyuan was poisoned in advance."
Jingxin nodded slightly and agreed with Li Lingsu's statement.
The other monks listened silently.
Xu Qian'an continued: "For this reason, I deliberately sneaked into the cellar and dissected Chai Jianyuan's body. I found that he did have signs of poisoning."
While speaking, he walked to Chai Jianyuan, tore open his clothes on his chest, revealing the sutured "wound" inside.
Chai Xing'er's expression suddenly became complicated, and she said, "So that's how it is. It was you who sneaked into the cellar that night..."
After a pause, she said in a deep voice, "It seems that Chai Xian had planned it in advance and secretly poisoned my brother."
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Chai Xian, who was doubting his life. He lowered his head and muttered something, not caring about the affairs around him at all.
He became autistic...
"Amitabha."
Jingxin shook his head and chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice.
"No, it wasn't Chai Xian who poisoned, it was you, Chai Xing'er." Xu Qian'an said loudly.
Everyone suddenly shifted their gaze and looked at Chai Xing'er.
Li Lingsu opened her eyes wide.
Chai Xian's mumbling stopped for a moment.
Chai Xing'er's pretty face was slightly stiff: "Senior, you still don't believe me?"
Xu Qian'an ignored him and talked freely:
"Do you remember why Chai Jianyuan didn't tell Chai Xian about his life experience? Was it just because he was afraid that he would be hit? Those who can cultivate to the fifth level of Huajin are all mentally tough. What's this little hit?
"At first I didn't understand it, but when I saw Chai Xian's soul separation, I suddenly understood why Chai Jianyuan would hide his life experience. This would only aggravate his condition and even cause some bad things. For example, the ending we see now."
Everyone was thoughtful.
Li Lingsu suddenly realized, and then frowned and asked: "But what does this have to do with Xing'er?"
Xu Qian'an glanced at the beautiful wife:
"Chai Xing'er's ex-husband died because of Chai Jianyuan, and you felt resentful, so you took the opportunity of the conflict between father and son over Chai Lan's marriage to secretly let Chai Xian know his life experience, which stimulated the aggravation of the soul separation. "At the same time, poison Chai Jianyuan and let him die in Chai Xian's hands. Chai Xian has been extreme since he was a child, and his other side is even more extreme and cruel. How will he react when he finds out that Chai Jianyuan is the culprit who caused his miserable childhood and that Chai Jianyuan wants to marry his beloved girl to someone else?"
The inner hall suddenly became quiet.
Chai Xing'er could feel those eyes, all focused on her at this moment.
She just glanced at Li Lingsu and said:
"Senior Xu, these are all your guesses, there is no evidence. Moreover, Xiao Lan's whereabouts are still unknown. She is close to Chai Xian, so she may not know Chai Xian's identity, and may have seen his six toes a long time ago. Therefore, she will not fall in love with Chai Xian."
"You can ask Chai Xian if he knows that he has six toes on his left foot."
Chai Xing'er continued: "She didn't want to marry into the Huangfu family, so she poisoned her eldest brother and secretly revealed Chai Xian's true identity, and then fled. Until now, her whereabouts are still unknown. Senior, is my speculation reasonable?"
Don't admit it!
"Just because you don't want to get married?"
A young monk couldn't help but question.
"Then Xing'er wouldn't kill her own elder brother just because Chai Jianyuan turned her ex- husband into an iron corpse."
Li Lingsu whispered: "Senior, Chai Jianyuan had to turn Xing'er's ex-husband into an iron corpse, not intentionally. Even if Xing'er has resentment, it's just resentment."
Xu Qian'an ignored him and smiled:
"I really don't understand your motives, but that's a later story. Chai Xing'er, who is locked
up in the secret room under the ancestral hall? Do you need me to tell you?"
Chai Xing'er's face turned pale instantly.
Xu Qian'an looked around at everyone, then looked at Chai Xian: "Chai Lan was locked up in
the secret room of the ancestral hall by Chai Xing'er, and I have found her."
Chai Xian raised his head suddenly, his lips trembling: "She, she is fine..."
"Li Lingsu, go and bring her over." Xu Qian'an raised his chin towards the door.
"Me?" Li Lingsu pointed at himself.
"Could it be me?" Xu Qi'an asked back.
But I don't know where the secret room is... Li Lingsu instinctively didn't want to go, afraid of
revealing the truth, but he saw a ginger cat standing at the door, and raised his paw and
slapped the threshold unhappily.
So he knew that if he didn't go, the old man Xu Qian would be angry, so he had to bite the
bullet and step out.
The inner hall was quiet, and no one spoke.
The monks of the Buddhist sect were half expecting and half fearing. They were expecting the progress of the case, and they were afraid of how Xu Qi'an would deal with them later.
The Zen masters still had the strength to fight, but they asked themselves that they had no chance of winning against the unpredictable knife. And the other party also had a puppet that could perform and offset the precepts.
As for Jingxin, he was the one who knew Xu Qi'an's identity and cultivation best. Others might have the idea of taking a gamble, but Jingxin didn't have any luck in this regard.
Half a minute later, Li Lingsu came in with a dishevelled woman in his arms. The orange cat
that had just left did not follow.
Chai Xing'er's face turned a little paler.
Chai Xian stared at the woman intently. As he got closer, he could see her face clearly through
her messy hair.
"Xiao Lan..."
He trembled and made a sound similar to crying.
Chai Lan opened her mouth, but she was so excited that she couldn't speak and burst into
tears.
"Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan..."
Chai Xian twisted his body and moved in front of her. He carefully examined her several times, with mixed feelings of sadness and joy: "It's good that you're okay, it's good that
you're okay."
Xu Qian'an examined the beautiful wife: "What else do you want to quibble about?"
Chai Lan's appearance was ironclad evidence to accuse Chai Xing'er. It was meaningless to force quibbling because there were still rules waiting for her.
Chai Xing'er understood this truth. She said nothing more. She walked slowly towards Li Lingsu, raised her hands, held the handsome face of the Holy Son, and said softly:
"Li Lang, I knew you were a playboy. From the moment I saw you, I knew what kind of person
you were."
She sighed and said, "I didn't want to pay attention to you, but you insisted on provoking me. After you came back from Qianjue Valley, it was difficult for me to fall in love with you against
my will. At that time, I thought that even if you were a playboy, I would like a man who was willing to risk his life for you."
"Xing'er, you, why are you doing this..." Li Lingsu said with pity.
Why do you do this for a grudge? Just because Chai Jianyuan turned her late husband into an
iron corpse?
Li Lingsu couldn't understand it. He was about to say something, but Chai Xing'er, who was holding his cheek, suddenly turned her palm around and slapped her own forehead.
The change happened too fast, and Li Lingsu was caught off guard. He could only watch the palm containing the energy slap Chai Xing'er's eyebrows while his pupils contracted sharply.
Suddenly, a hand appeared in Li Lingsu's pupils and grabbed Chai Xing'er's wrist.
"Want to commit suicide? Did I allow it?"
Xu Qian'an sneered.
"Senior Xu..."
The saint was surprised and thought to himself that you are so reliable, and you will always be
my backer. Immediately, Li Lingsu, who was filled with fear, pressed Chai Xing'er's shoulders, shocked, angry and pitying:
"Suicide? You said you loved me, but you committed suicide? Why?"
Chai Xing'er ignored him, turned her head to look at Xu Qian'an, and said bitterly: "Senior, I
have nothing to say, I can only die to apologize, you still want to intervene?"
"I haven't finished asking, you want to die now, isn't it too hasty?" Looking at Xu Qian's half-smile expression, facing the other party's burning eyes, Chai Xing'er suddenly felt like she was stripped naked, no secrets could be hidden.
What does it mean?
The murderer behind the scenes has confessed, the truth of the case is out, what else is there to ask?
In the surprised expressions of the crowd, Li Lingsu said: "Senior?"
"I have two doubts, I would like to ask Aunt Chai to answer."
Xu Qian'an glanced at the crowd, "Don't you think it's strange? Chai Xing'er's ex-husband has
been dead for nearly three years. Why did she keep silent for these three years and wait until
now to take action?"
Jingxin and Li Lingsu frowned at the same time.
They understood Xu Qian's words. The premise of forbearance is to find opportunities or
accumulate strength. But in the past three years, what has prevented Chai Xing'er from taking
revenge?
Chai Xing'er pursed her lips and said frankly: "I am waiting for an opportunity to aggravate Chai Xian's soul-leaving syndrome. The marriage between the Chai family and the Huangfu family is an opportunity."
"Hehe, given Chai Xian's condition, it took a long time for him to become so sick. Even if
there was no matter about the Huangfu family, he would probably commit patricide. Of course, if you insist on waiting for an opportunity, that's fine."
Xu Qian'an had a calm expression, with the calmness and confidence of an old criminal
policeman:
"The second doubt is why do you want to imprison Chai Lan?
"Suppose all your plans are for revenge, Chai Jianyuan is your enemy, Chai Xian is your tool,
but Chai Lan is an outsider, why do you imprison her?"
Chai Xing'er was silent for a long time, with resentment flashing in her eyes, "Do you know
why my husband and my eldest brother were ambushed by the enemy when they went out to do business that day?"
She uttered a "huh", looked around at everyone, and sneered: "There is no so-called enemy
at all, everything is a trap set by my eldest brother."
"Nonsense."
Chai Lan refuted loudly and excitedly, choking with sobs: "Why did father do this, aunt, you
have harmed father, do you want to slander him again?"
Chai Xing'er sneered:
"Of course it is for his bastard. My husband and I are both fifth-rank, and my husband married
into the Chai family, so he is a member of the Chai family. His two sons have accomplished nothing, only Chai Xian has excellent qualifications, but suffers from soul separation disease. While he is looking for a cure, he is worried that if Chai Xian's soul separation disease cannot be cured, how can he inherit the position of the head of the family as an adopted son? "Will the clan support an outsider or support us? He is confident that he can suppress us when
he is alive, but once he dies, the Chai family will be in our pockets. "So, he wanted to take advantage of my childlessness to get rid of my husband to maintain
balance. In this way, even if Chai Xian's disease cannot be cured in the future, Chai Xian can be adopted as an adopted son to assist the second or third son. "Let the position of the head of the Chai family not fall into my hands.
"He caused my husband's tragic death, so I must retaliate against his most beloved daughter.
But Lan'er is my niece after all, and I still can't bear to kill her."
"How could this happen..." Li Lingsu had never expected that there was such a secret behind
this case.
"Amitabha, fame and fortune are all clouds. Donor Chai Jianyuan made a big mistake because
of his own selfishness. Donor Chai Xing'er also made a big mistake because she couldn't let go of hatred."
Jingxin shook his head and sighed.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it..."
Chai Lan shook her head desperately.
Chai Xing'er looked at Xu Qi'an: "Senior Xu, if you don't believe me, you can use the precepts
to judge me."
"I believe it." Xu Qi'an nodded and smiled: "But you still lied."
This time, everyone shifted their gaze from Chai Xing'er to Xu Qi'an.
Chai Xing'er's face changed.
"You are telling the truth. Chai Jianyuan may have really harmed your husband. But this has
nothing to do with your imprisonment of Chai Lan. If you can't bear it, you can just not kill her. If you can bear it, then kill her. You said a lot of words, but in fact you are diverting our
attention."
You are using this set of diversionary and conceptual rhetoric in front of me. Ha, woman, you
don't know how to write the three words Xu Yinluo...Xu Qi'an only hates that he has no eyes and can't reflect sharply.
"In addition, Chai Jianyuan has two sons. If you want to take revenge on him, shouldn't you
choose two nephews? Why did you choose a niece? If I guess correctly, your purpose of imprisoning Chai Lan is to keep Chai Xian in Xiangzhou."
Thump, thump, thump... Chai Xing'er retreated repeatedly, her expression was very strange,
as if she had seen a devil.
All her secrets were seen through.
"You, who are you?!" Chai Xing'er screamed.
Li Lingsu and Jingxin vaguely understood some of it, but as for the others, their thinking
could no longer keep up.
Including Chai Xian and Chai Lan.
"It doesn't matter who I am. Now please answer my last question: why do you want to keep
Chai Xian in Xiangzhou."
Chai Xing'er gritted her teeth and refused to say a word.
Xu Qian'an snapped his fingers.
Hengyin straightened his body, stepped on his feet, raised his hand and saluted: "Yes Sir."
Then, the head of Sanhua Temple put his hands together and said slowly: "Don't tell lies!"
The invisible but powerful force enveloped Chai Xing'er, making her unable to lie.
"Why do you want to imprison Chai Lan?" Xu Qian'an asked. Including Li Lingsu, everyone looked at Chai Xing'er in unison.
Chai Xing'er's face twisted for a while, but she couldn't go against her heart after all, and said
truthfully: "To keep Chai Xian in Xiangzhou."
It's true!!
Everyone present immediately understood that everything was as Xu Qian expected.
"What's the reason?" Xu Qian'an asked the most critical question. .....Chai Xing'er's beautiful face was completely distorted, and she said word by word:
"He, he is the host of the dragon energy... I can't let him leave Xiangzhou before the superiors come."
She knows the host of the dragon energy?! Xu Qian'an and Jingxin's faces changed drastically. Dragon Qi host, dragon qi again? What is dragon qi? What happened in the outside world
during the six months that I was under house arrest by the Dongfang sisters... Li Lingsu thought blankly.
In the pagoda, he knew that the golden dragon that Xu Qian and the Buddhist sect had fought
for was called dragon qi.
But he didn't know more information, Xu Qian didn't tell him.
Xu Qian'an's face was solemn, he pondered for a moment, and asked: "What is your identity."
Chai Xing'er struggled for several seconds: "I am a hidden man of the "Tianji Palace", collecting intelligence from Zhangzhou and the rivers and lakes for the organization." "What kind of organization is the Tianji Palace, and what kind of force does it belong to." "I, I don't know..." "Tell me everything you know." Xu Qian'an said in a deep voice.
"Not long ago, the organization sent me intelligence, asking me to pay attention to whether
there are any abnormalities in Zhangzhou. This includes some sudden major events, people
who suddenly become famous, and masters who have made rapid progress in their cultivation.
"The intelligence said that the dragon veins of Dafeng collapsed, and the dragon energy
scattered in various states of the Central Plains, choosing a host to stay. Not long after, I found that Chai Xian's cultivation had made rapid progress, and he actually realized the transformation of energy in a short period of time.
"You know, he just entered the sixth rank last year, and with his qualifications, it would take
at least five years to realize the transformation of energy. I reported the intelligence to my
superiors, while waiting for news, I observed Chai Xian.
"I suddenly realized that this was an opportunity to avenge my eldest brother and take
control of the Chai family. So I planned all this..."
Li Lingsu closed his eyes and sighed: "Xing'er, you leaked the information about me and
Senior Xu to Jingxin and others." Chai Xing'er nodded bitterly:
"I imprisoned Xiao Lan to keep Chai Xian and wait for the arrival of my superiors. But I didn't
expect that you and the Buddhist sect would come. What makes me even more helpless is that
you all have a strong curiosity about Chai Xian.
"In order to prevent you from finding Chai Xian and ruining my business, I leaked the news
about you and him to the Buddhist sect, so that you can focus on dealing with each other and
ignore Chai Xian. It's a pity that Jingxin couldn't find Senior Xu."
I have the "Moving Stars and Changing Constellations" spell of Tian Gu, so of course they
can't find me... Tianji Palace, this familiar name, if I guessed correctly, is a spy organization
established by an unhuman son.
Ordinary Jianghu forces would never know that the dragon energy was dissipating. As one of the culprits of the dragon energy dissipation, how could he not collect dragon energy? As a second-grade "qi practitioner" who planned to rebel, his spies and hidden men could not
be limited to Yunzhou. I didn't expect that I would run into one. I might be able to follow Chai Xing'er's lead and root out the hidden man who is not a human
being... Uh, that's too simple. With the intelligence of a non-human being, he can't be that
stupid... Xu Qi'an pinched his eyebrows.
Dafeng's dragon energy collapsed? What are they talking about... Li Lingsu inexplicably felt
that he was out of touch with the times.
He quickly looked at the others and was surprised to find that except for the siblings Chai Xian
and Chai Lan, who were the same as him, the others were not surprised at all, as if they had
known it for a long time.
Wait, dragon energy? Dragon veins?!
Li Lingsu suddenly remembered that he had read about dragon veins in the ancient books of
Tianzong.
He thus thought of the incident in which the Emperor of Dafeng was beheaded by Xu Yinluo.
Are the two related?
At this time, Jingxin suddenly said: "How does Xu Shizhu plan to deal with them and how to
deal with us?"
The power of life and death of everyone present was in the hands of Xu Qi'an.
He looked at Chai Xian first.
Extracting dragon energy is necessary. As for Chai Xian, he has committed numerous murders,
but he is a mental patient. It is not a subjective crime. According to the laws of my previous life, such a person should be locked up in a mental hospital for life... But according to the Dafeng law, such a person should be executed by slow slicing... I am only suitable for solving
cases, not being a judge. Xu Qian'an was considering.
At this time, Chai Xian raised his head and said, "Can you untie my rope?" His expression was calm, and his tone was calm, as if he had made a decision long ago.
Xu Qian'an drew out the Taiping sword, and with a flash of the sword, he easily cut the rope of
the
magic weapon.
Chai Xian nodded to him and whispered, "I will atone for the mistakes I made with my life. He
is right, I am too cowardly and have never dared to face myself."
This "he" refers to another personality.
"When I was eight years old, my mother died of illness, and I began to beg for a living. I was
bullied and even had to fight with dogs for food when I was starving. When I was the most difficult, I wished I could die immediately, and death was also a kind of relief. I hated my biological father all the time. Later, my adoptive father found me and took me back to the Chai family..."
He tilted his head and looked at Chai Lan beside him with a gentle smile: "I found the
meaning of living, but it's just a mirage."
Chai Xian stretched out his palm and wanted to touch Chai Lan's cheek, but his hand froze in
mid-air.
"If I could go back to the past, I would not enter the Chai family. I would rather not have met
you
in this life."
The hand that froze in mid-air was retracted and slapped on his forehead.
Bang!
In the sound of bone cracking, accompanied by Chai Lan's scream, Chai Xian's body suddenly
froze, blood flowed from his eyes, and then he fell to the ground softly.
A strong dragon energy flew out of Chai Xian's body, rushing towards the roof with fangs and claws, trying to leave here.
