The golden elixir is a star. Do you call this cultivating immortality

Chapter 497 I am a son-in-law, easy to be bullied, come and bully me

The light of morning sun shines on Qi Yuan's body lazily.

Chen Kang still had a steamed bun in his mouth and was eating it incoherently.

In the Shen Mansion, on the martial arts field, young men and women gathered in groups of three or five, talking in low voices.

"I wonder if I have the talent of a weapon master?"

"If I am chosen to go to Yeshan Lake, and if I can come up with a great plan to repair Weilong Xuanyuan, it will be so glorious!"

"I heard that the son-in-law wanted to give his wife a bath last night... Actually, I want to too..."

Some of these voices were spoken, some were the voices in the heart, but none of them escaped Qi Yuan's ears.

When Qi Yuan appeared, many people in the martial arts arena had more thoughts about "bath water".

However, no one dared to say it to her face, because it concerned the lady's reputation.

Qi Yuan stretched lazily, with mixed feelings.

"I'm playing the role of a son-in-law too slowly, not only did I fail to pour bath water for my mother-in-law.

These people are good at cultivating their Qi, but no one comes out to bully me, so how can I act like a role model?"

According to Qi Yuan's idea.

If you play the role of a son-in-law, how can you advance if no one bullies you?

However, Qi Yuan's appearance did attract a lot of people's attention.

Shen Baiting looked at Qi Yuan, his eyes changing, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Ling Xuan is so beautiful, how could she marry such an incompetent villain?

Why didn't he die in Ninghe County?"

"He caused a big disturbance in the Shen Mansion yesterday, but the head of the family didn't punish him. How despicable!"

"It's a pity. After all, he is the son-in-law of the patriarch. We can't offend him casually. We have to find a stupid person to instigate him and let him cause trouble for Qi Yuan."

"Seeing him live such a carefree life, it makes me jealous!"

"Shen Baihu is pretty good, but it's a pity that when I told him about it last time...he said he doesn't bully losers."

Shen Baiting was in a gloomy mood.

He had long disliked Qi Yuan.

It can even be said that he has always treated his sister Shen Lingxuan as a goddess and has a strong possessive desire for her.

At this moment, Qi Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard Shen Baiting's voice.

He found... someone who could bully the son-in-law.

"Old man, go get a wooden board..." He whispered to Chen Kangbao.

When Chen Kangbao heard Qi Yuan's words, he quickly finished his steamed bun and trotted away.

At this time, under the gaze of many people, Qi Yuan walked towards Shen Baiting's small circle.

Shen Baitie frowned slightly.

Shen Baihu was surprised.

The people around looked confused.

"Meet Brother Qi!"

No matter what, they all called Qi Yuan "Brother Qi" and had friendly smiles on their faces.

This is why a husband is honored by his wife.

This made Qi Yuan sigh that some people are worthy of being from big families and are so good at pretending.

Especially Shen Baiting, he wished he would die in his heart, but the smile on his face was so kind.

"I'm just a son-in-law. I didn't expect you to be so nice to me." Qi Yuan looked like a white lotus.

"Brother Qi, you're joking. You are Ling Xuan's husband, and we are all family. If I don't treat you well, who else can I treat well?" Shen Baiting said with a smile.

"Oh." Qi Yuan sighed.

"Brother Qi, do you have any worries?" Shen Baiting asked considerately.

“I’m lamenting that there are too many intrigues in large families.

You clearly wish I were dead, yet you greet me with a smile." Qi Yuan looked at the young man in front of him.

The smile on Shen Baiting's face froze, and he immediately said with a look of grievance: "Brother Qi, are you... framing me? I don't know when Baiting offended Brother Qi, but Brother Qi hates me so much. Brother Qi, tell me, and I will change it immediately!"

When it comes to playing the role of White Lotus, Shen Baiting is much better than Qi Yuan.

A man would feel pity when seeing this look.

Many people even looked at Qi Yuan angrily, thinking that Qi Yuan was bullying them.

In my mind, I thought, how dare a mere son-in-law come out like this?

When faced with someone like Shen Baiting who likes to do tricks behind the scenes, ordinary people can't do anything about him.

Qi Yuan's expression was calm: "If you didn't want me to die, why would you instigate Shen Baihu and want him to attack me?"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Baiting's expression suddenly changed.

Shen Baihu frowned suddenly, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Shen Baiting with suspicious eyes.

"Don't talk nonsense. How could I be sowing discord?" Shen Baiting was a little flustered. He was trying to sow discord between Shen Baihu and Qi Yuan. Only Shen Baihu knew what he said.

How could Shen Baihu, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, say that to Qi Yuan?

I misunderstood him. Is he very scheming?
"Alas, Baihu, I misjudged you." Shen Baiting looked heartbroken. "When Ling Xuan married Qi Yuan, I had complaints in my heart. It was just a slip of the tongue after drinking. I never thought that you would tell those words to Brother Qi!"

He hastened to distance himself from the matter.

Even seek approval from others.

After all, many people in the Shen family had complaints about Qi Yuan marrying Shen Lingxuan.

Of course, Shen Baiting had even greater resentment in his heart.

He is a descendant of a branch family and considers himself to be very outstanding.

The collateral line can also intermarry with the main line.

He had just gotten the chance to enter the center of the Shen Mansion, and as soon as he saw Shen Lingxuan, he felt a strong desire to possess her.

He was conceited and thought that if he gave himself some time, he would be able to get Shen Lingxuan, and in the future he would be able to obtain more resources and eventually take charge of the Shen family.

But who knew that Qi Yuan would show up and ruin his plan.

When Shen Baihu heard Shen Baiting's words, his expression changed again and again.

At this time, the young man of the Shen family saw this and spoke up for Shen Baiting.

"Brother Qi, Brother Bai Ting spoke nonsense after drinking. Please don't take it seriously!"

Qi Yuan married into the Shen family, and many young men had complaints.

They also thought that Shen Baiting was the same as them, but was eventually informed by Shen Baihu.

At this time, three or four young men came to plead for Shen Baiting.

Shen Baiting hunched over, feeling very proud.

"Humph, Shen Baihu, with your little tricks, how can you fight me?"

He naturally thought that Shen Baihu was jealous of him and that was why he informed on him, which led to the son-in-law Qi Yuan looking for trouble with him.

At this time, Chen Kangbao ran over quickly.

"Master, the brand!"

He handed over a wooden board.

There was a rope hanging on the wooden board, and Qi Yuan hung the board on his body.

He turned the wooden board over, and suddenly two lines of large characters appeared on it.

"I'm just a son-in-law, not easy to bully!"

"Shen Baiting, if you want to bully me, just bully me. Don't hide your thoughts!"

Qi Yuan pointed at the big words on the wooden board and looked at Shen Baiting.

When the people around saw this scene, they were all shocked and felt puzzled.

"This son-in-law... is he really crazy?"

"Your behavior is...too unrealistic."

That’s right, Qi Yuan’s behavior left them confused.

Shen Baiting's face was gloomy and looked very ugly.

He didn't expect Qi Yuan to find him and write on the board. Chen Kangbao blinked because he remembered that there was no writing on the board.

"Shen Baiting, I'm easy to bully, come and bully me!" Qi Yuan said to Shen Baiting with anticipation on his face.

The progress of the performance of the son-in-law Qi Yuan is stuck at 29%.

If he goes one step further, he has a feeling there will be a reward and he is looking forward to it.

As long as Shen Baiting bullies him, the progress might exceed 29%.

Shen Baiting took a deep breath: "If Brother Qi is dissatisfied with me, Baiting admits his fault, and I hope Brother Qi will calm down!"

He bowed solemnly and apologized to Qi Yuan.

The people around looked at Shen Baiting with sympathy.

"Hey, are you a man? If you want to bully me, just say it directly. Aren't you tired of pretending every day like a hypocrite?" Qi Yuan said.

When Shen Baiting heard this, he still looked aggrieved: "Brother Qi, you have misunderstood me too much!"

The people around looked at Qi Yuan with a hint of resentment on their faces.

He seemed angry that Qi Yuan bullied Shen Baiting like this.

He is obviously a person from an outsider, but he is so arrogant.

At this moment, a hurried voice came: "Brother-in-law, I found Lao Zhong's residence!"

There was a hint of joy in his voice.

Shen Lingfeng ran over and grabbed Qi Yuan's arm.

His arrival also seemed to pause the debate on the field.

When Qi Yuan heard this, he looked at Shen Baiting and said, "Bai Ting, wait until I come back, and you bully me again. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

"Brother-in-law, what did you say?" Shen Lingfeng was a little confused.

"Nothing, let's go to Lao Zhong first."

Qi Yuan pulled Shen Lingfeng away.

After all, Lao Zhong’s death was somewhat suspicious, and Qi Yuan had to first investigate who was behind it.

This is also one of the things that Qi Yuan, who plays the role of the son-in-law, has to do.

Shen Baiting looked at the backs of Shen Lingfeng and Qi Yuan, his expression changing from gloomy to bright.

"Why are they suddenly so close?"

"This Qi Yuan is really abominable. Is he pretending to be crazy or something?"

“Humph, justice is on my side. I’ll be careful during this period. How can he fight me?”

Shen Baiting thought secretly in his heart.

In the current situation, he is the victim. Even if the matter is brought to the Elders' Council, the advantage is on his side. He is not afraid of Qi Yuan at all.

……

"Brother-in-law, I know you want to investigate the cause of Lao Zhong's death. I have specially found a helper for you. He is now in Lao Zhong's room, checking Lao Zhong's body." Shen Lingfeng said seriously, like a child seeking credit.

"You are thoughtful." Qi Yuan said.

"Hehe, when doing things for my brother-in-law, I must be attentive!" Shen Lingfeng said, and whispered, "Brother-in-law, I have received seventeen replies today."

He said this with great pride and also showing off.

He wrote and sent more than a hundred letters, and now he has received seventeen replies.

"But Miss Li and Miss Lin didn't reply, alas..." Shen Lingfeng said regretfully.

"It means they have nothing to do with you. So don't bother with them anymore." Qi Yuan said.

"Okay, I'll listen to my brother-in-law!" Shen Lingfeng responded.

Soon, the two men arrived at Lao Zhong's residence outside the Shen Mansion.

The residence is quite remote, the house is not big, dark and damp.

There was a faint stench of corpse coming from the house, and also a smell like a dead snake.

The coffin was placed inside. When the coffin was opened, a man dressed as a constable was frowning and thinking.

"Lin Qinghe, how is the investigation going? Who killed Lao Zhong?" Shen Lingfeng walked in and shouted.

Lin Qinghe interrupted his thoughts. He looked at Qi Yuan and Shen Lingfeng. His eyes swept over Qi Yuan with some surprise.

However, he answered truthfully: "The deceased has been dead for too long and left too few clues.

However, there is a small, smooth cut on his larynx. According to my guess, it must have been caused by a swordsman who was an expert at using swordsmanship."

Lin Qinghe looked helpless.

Lao Zhong died too long ago, and there are too few clues left in this house.

Even if we replace those great detectives, it would be difficult to find out who the murderer is.

"Who killed and framed my brother-in-law?" Shen Lingfeng asked.

Lin Qinghe shook his head: "I need time to investigate and find more clues."

"Let me take a look." Qi Yuan spoke at this time and walked towards the coffin.

Lin Qinghe was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.

"Brother-in-law, do you know how to solve cases?" Shen Lingfeng asked from the side.

"In fact, I am particularly suited to solving cases." Qi Yuan answered seriously, "If I were a police chief, there would be almost no case in the world that I couldn't solve!"

If he had not appeared in the world of immortal cultivation, his superpowers would be most suitable for him to be a detective or a policeman.

When Lin Qinghe heard this, he was speechless.

He naturally recognized the young man in front of him as Qi Yuan from Ninghe County.

He didn't expect that Qi Yuan would come out of the mental hospital and return to the Shen family.

But when you think about the strength of the Shen family, this is normal.

He knew Qi Yuan, he was just average and a bit useless.

Where will the case be solved?
Nowadays, his remarks are really ridiculous.

"Brother Qi, do you know... why there is a missing bone between Lao Zhong's waist and abdomen?" Lin Qinghe asked casually.

It seems that he wants to test Qi Yuan.

"Is this important?" Qi Yuan glanced at Lin Qinghe. "This has nothing to do with his death. You're actually paying attention to these things. It seems that you're not good enough."

Lin Qinghe was stunned for a moment, feeling a little amused and helpless.

This son-in-law Qi Yuan...can't you hear that I want to test him?
If he can't even spot such a simple injury, how can he claim that there is no case in the world that he can't solve?
Qi Yuan ignored Lin Qinghe and his eyes fell on Lao Zhong's rotting corpse.

He glanced at the fatal wound on his neck.

Suddenly, a piece of news fell into Qi Yuan's eyes.

[This sword mark was made by Fang Shisan of Guangyao Society.]

"Brother-in-law, do you have any clues?" Shen Lingfeng didn't dare to come over and asked from a distance.

Lin Qinghe looked at Qi Yuan, feeling helpless.

This person just took a quick look and didn't even look at or examine the corpse carefully, so how could he find any clues?

"There are no clues, but I found the person who killed Lao Zhong." Qi Yuan said.

Lin Qinghe was stunned for a moment and subconsciously asked: "Who is the murderer? Does Brother Qi know him?"

"The murderer is Fang Shisan from Guangyao Society. Does anyone know him?" Qi Yuan asked back.

"Guangyao Society? Fang Shisan?" Lin Qinghe was stunned.

He had never heard of these two names. Could it be that Qi Yuan was making it up?
"I haven't heard of it." Shen Lingfeng shook his head.

"It seems that you all don't know." Qi Yuan said calmly, "Let's go home. Now that we know the murderer, we just need to find him."

Shen Lingfeng showed admiration on his face: "Brother-in-law, you are really amazing. You can tell who the murderer is just by looking at the corpse!"

Beside him, Lin Qinghe was still speechless.

He really wanted to refute Shen Lingfeng, but after thinking about it, he decided there was no need to talk to Shen Lingfeng.

After all, he naturally felt that Qi Yuan was talking nonsense.

How can someone know who the murderer is just by looking at the dead body, even though he doesn't know the murderer and has never seen him.

Could it be that the murderer's name was engraved on the dead person's bones?
"Brother Lin, please help me to put an end to the wanted list of Fang Shisan from Guangyao Society!" Before leaving, Shen Lingfeng did not forget to ask Lin Qinghe for help.

"...Okay." After a little hesitation, Lin Qinghe nodded.
