When everyone's eyes fell on the remaining people, the middle-aged couple in the Qi Condensation stage couldn't help but tremble all over. They had the lowest cultivation level, and being looked directly at by so many Foundation-building monks made them tremble. The purple-shirted couple The young man was blocked behind by the hunchbacked old man. Although his face was embarrassed, he did not bear the pressure. Li Yan looked pale.
The middle-aged couple was trembling, and the male cultivator quietly pulled the female cultivator behind him. Although his face was pale, he still managed to speak, "Wan... Junior 'Songyue Sect' Zhang... Zhang Peng, this is Zhuo Jing, also a junior junior sister. Yesterday, she came to the market to buy medicine for her master, and she returned to the sect today, but... But before, Zhuo Jing was feeling unwell, so she stayed in the side room to rest. But...but for those who really haven't left the room, senior, please have mercy and let us go back. Master, he is still waiting for this medicine to heal his injuries. Seniors can also check the storage bags of the two juniors." After saying that, the male cultivator hurriedly took out two cyan porcelain bottles from the storage bag and took off the storage bag on his body. At his signal, the woman also took off the storage bag on her waist in a panic. But there was a blush on her face. It was obvious that there were things that women often use in the storage bag, and she didn't want others to know.
The two of them were helpless. When they came here, they relied on spiritual weapons to fly, which was a waste of time. After buying the required medicine yesterday, they thought about going back like this but they were running out of time. After gritting their teeth, they I decided to use the teleportation array early this morning, but who knew I would be involved in this troubled waters? In fact, if they had really checked the storage bag before, it would have been OK for him and his wife. Anyway, no one would look down on the contents of their storage bag. However, one of the couple had wood spiritual roots and the other had water spiritual roots. He was under suspicion, so he didn’t dare to open his mouth.
When the Taoist Master heard this, he did not take the storage bags from the two of them. He just waved and two cyan porcelain bottles flew into his hands. He opened the corks of the bottles and took a look with his consciousness, and then took them again. The two cyan porcelain bottles were capped, and with a wave of his hand, the cyan porcelain bottles flew back.
His expression softened a lot, "You two take out the sect tokens and let me have a look." After hearing this, the middle-aged couple felt uneasy and saw that no one else took out the tokens. I don’t know what Taoist Gong meant by the token, but I saw that Taoist Gong’s face softened and he felt a little relieved. He quickly took out two small tokens carved like pine trees from his storage bag.
This time, Taoist Gong just scanned his consciousness and nodded, "It is undoubtedly the token of the Songyue Sect. Is Min Songzi your master?"
The second middle-aged couple When people heard the Taoist priest talking like this, he seemed to know his master, and he couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised. The male cultivator quickly said, "It's my master. It turns out that the senior knows him."
"Oh, he is injured. "Yes?" Gong Taoist asked calmly.
"Senior Qi, my master was injured while exploring a secret cave with several friends four years ago. He has been recuperating in recent years. This time it is at the last moment, so he needs to I need some elixirs to help, so I was sent to the city to purchase elixirs.”The male cultivator replied, but he looked a little sad when he said it, thinking that he was a low-ranking sect with only about twenty disciples. After the master was injured, the sect had less than ten people left in a few years.
The Taoist priest didn’t care what the male cultivator thought. He nodded again after hearing this. In fact, he knew about Min Songzi’s injury. It was he, Min Songzi and several other people who went out four years ago. The treasure hunter, Min Songzi's cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building, and he is very strong. At this moment, he is just asking about it deliberately. But Min Songzi was really awesome. During that treasure hunt, the last few people encountered a third-level early-stage white jade spider. Although they finally got something, two of them died, but Min Songzi resisted. Even Gong Taoist himself was seriously injured, but he was the head of a second-rate sect and had Master Jindan, so his injuries had long since healed. Min Songzi was just a casual cultivator in his early years. The sect that was founded many years ago has no one to rely on but itself.
"Okay, you two can leave. Master Ling and I are still acquaintances, and I also know his skills. This matter has nothing to do with you two." Gong Taoist said slowly When the middle-aged couple heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly. Then they stood aside with joyful faces and distanced themselves from Li Yan and others. Although they were frightened by this, they felt relieved after a while. He also saved a lot of spiritual stones, which was a big expense for his sect.
Seeing that many people were telling the difference between right and wrong, the young man in purple shirt suddenly looked anxious. He couldn't stay for a long time, so he hurriedly said, "My master and servant are living in the side room." , but..." Before he could finish speaking, the hunchbacked old man pulled his sleeve, and an old voice said, "Master, we have no evidence whether he left the side room at that time. Everything depends on the return of the golden elixir overhaul. Let's investigate." Although he was anxious, he was also helpless. He knew that his master and servant alone could prove it to anyone, so leaving in such a hurry made people suspicious.
After hearing this, the young man in purple shirt looked outside the courtyard gate, looking even more anxious. He knew for a moment that he could find no reason to leave. In the end, he had to lower his head angrily and kept whispering. "If I had known, I would have been in the hall, if I had known..."
Seeing this, the monks in the Qingxuan audience looked at him with more vigilance, especially since the hunchbacked old man always had an indifferent expression. , so that others don’t know what he thinks.
"Haha, the two of us also went to the side room after we arrived. There is no evidence whether we left." Just when everyone was still looking at the master and servant, a sinister voice sounded, It was one of the two men in black robes. They actually admitted it directly without any intention of defending. They also seemed not to be afraid that the golden elixir master would come back to investigate, which was quite straightforward.
After hearing this, Li Yan had an uneasy look on his face, and even said timidly, "I...I can't prove that I didn't leave the side room..."
Li After Yan opened his mouth, everyone was finally divided into two areas.Someone fixed their eyes on Li Yan, but after a quick glance, they finally focused on the young man in purple and the man in black. After all, a hunchbacked old man with an incomprehensible cultivation and two foundation-building monks were the only ones who could see Li Yan. It attracted people's attention. Luo Sanpang and Qin Chengyi had cold eyes. Although they were safe for the time being, they were still the most suspicious people.
When the palace Taoist glanced at Li Yan, he remembered that this person was recorded in the jade slip as a disciple of the "Blood Leaf Sect". Master Blood Leaf knew about this person, but he had never known him. We met, so we couldn't let Li Yan leave at will.
"This guy's cultivation is not bad. Although he is a little scared under pressure, he is generally pretty good." Gong Taoist gave Li Yan an evaluation in his heart.

When the matter was over, the Taoist priest turned to Kong Nantai and said, "You can take Fellow Daoist Lin and Master Yue to the teleportation formation. All the spiritual stones will be paid for by the sect." After that, He then said to the Confucian scholar and the others, "Fellow Taoists, I won't delay you all, please!"
The Confucian scholar and the others stood opposite Li Yan and the five of them. , there seems to be a gap in the middle. Seeing this, they all bowed their hands to the Taoist priest, and then followed Kong Nantai out of the courtyard. However, when they walked out, they all looked at Li Yan and others, some with sympathy in their eyes, like the pair in the middle. A young couple; some are indifferent, like the Confucian scholar Gui Liugang, etc.; some are actually excited and seem to take pleasure in others' misfortunes, such as the male and female disciples of the head of Yue, who were once a couple. He looked frightened and frightened, but now when he looked at Li Yan and others, his eyes revealed excitement.
Seeing this scene, Li Yan thought to himself, "There are some cultivators who are indifferent and ruthless, and there are also those who add insult to injury. It seems that the middle-aged couple may have been living at the bottom of the cultivator, but they have not lost their sympathy." . It seems that with the growth of cultivation, many immortal cultivators will cut off more things and become more and more ruthless and ungrateful."
However, Gong Taoist no longer looks at Confucian scholars such as Blood-Handed Flying Scythe. People looked up at the sky. It was already evening. In the evening of July, the stars appeared early and matched the setting sun. Even in the summer, the courtyard seemed cold and gloomy.
He looked at Qin Chengyi and Luo Sanpang behind him, "Junior Brother Luo, you will pick out a few more clever disciples later. Junior Brother Liu will be guarded by you until the master comes back." Don't move anything, lest you lose the clue. If something goes wrong again, it's up to you to explain everything to the master yourself."
Luo Sanpang couldn't help but listen to what Master Gong said. The fat on his face shook a few times, but he was not stupid. He knew that this was his senior brother who was blaming the blame. Senior Brother Liu's identity was very different. Although he also had the shadow of his great-grandfather, how could he have a blood relationship with his master? Compared with Senior Brother Liu, now that something has happened to Senior Brother Liu, I don’t know how Master will deal with them when he comes back. They are guarding the murder scene here. At best, they are just guarding here. The murderer has also been killed. Then we can go back. reason. But it’s really reached the endLater, if the murderer could not be found and someone needed to bear the master's anger, he believed that the Taoist priest could find any reason why the clues were missing. In addition, since he was the first to appear at the crime scene during the day, the blame would be on him no matter what. Can't get rid of it. But he knew he knew it, but he didn't dare to refute it. He had no choice but to agree and went to select people with a grimace. However, he was not a kind person. He had already made a plan in his heart, so he went to select a few people who he usually disliked for a long time. Disciple, he can also throw away the blame.
Seeing that Luo Sanpang had gone to select people, the Taoist Palace Master turned to Qin Chengyi and said, "Junior Brother Qin, please go and arrange a place for these fellow Taoists to live. I, along with several other junior brothers and sisters, have also There is something we need to discuss."
After hearing this, Qin Chengyi responded quickly. He knew that he started late and had low cultivation. He had to be more diligent in doing these errands, and this was better than Senior Brother Luo's situation. A lot.
He was about to take a step when he suddenly stopped again. He looked up and looked at the Taoist priest. This time he used the voice transmission method instead: "Senior Brother, do you want to arrange disciples in the place where they live?" "Guard?"
The Taoist Gong was greeting several junior brothers and sisters for consultation, and without looking back he said, "Now all the sect's formations are open and no entry or exit is allowed. How many ways can they go out?" Formation? I will ask the patrols to pay more attention to them."
Qin Chengyi felt relieved and thought, "Yes, I guess if they walk out randomly, they will fall directly into the formation. Under attack."
Li Yan and the others have been quietly watching the arrangements of the Taoist priests here, without making a sound. Qin Chengyi came over at this time and smiled slightly at them. "Fellow Taoists, today's incident is something we didn't want. I can only feel sorry for you to condescend to stay here for one night. Please come with me," he said. After that, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
Li Yan and the young man in purple glanced at each other, but the two monks in black robes and cloaks did not look at them at all and followed Qin Chengyi first.
So Li Yan and the other three followed, but they still maintained a certain distance between them.
After leaving the courtyard, Li Yan saw Luo Sanpang coming towards him with several Qi Condensation disciples. Luo Sanpang helplessly waved to Qin Chengyi, passed them by, and looked at them. He glared at Li Yan and others unkindly, and then made arrangements to guard this place with a fierce expression.
Qin Chengyi, Li Yan and the other five people did not go too far. They just walked another hundred or ten meters along the row of houses and stopped at the entrance of a courtyard. He stretched out his hand He directly opened the courtyard door, then turned around and said to everyone, "Although there are many disciples in my temple, they are not as good as in the past heyday, so there are still a lot of empty houses, and many of these houses have been converted into reception rooms." The courtyard is used by guests, but although there is a large formation covering the entire courtyard, it is not opened when there are no guests. After all, spiritual stones are needed to operate the formation. ”
While talking, he already broughtFollowing Ta Yan and others, they entered the courtyard. There were four towering ancient trees in the courtyard, and a row of six houses behind it. As night fell, white lights also lit up in the rooms. Qin Chengyi pointed at the houses behind. "Because this place has been changed to receive guests, a small protective formation is also installed in each room. The spiritual stones to activate the formation have been placed. You just need to activate it yourself. After all, this formation is It is an ordinary protective restriction, and the activation method is ordinary. It mainly serves the purpose of sound insulation and early warning. There are also disciples patrolling the temple at night. If there is any movement here, someone will come soon, so this formation still has a certain effect. Yes, of course, if fellow Taoists are worried, you can set up another set of protective formations in the room."
Qin Chengyi said with a smile.
