The witch who refused to be involved in the Demon Sect became the white moonlight in the fairy world

"Don't make it sound like my senior brother is some kind of city lord killer." Ye Zhizhi said angrily to Zhou Tianmin, "My senior brother already said that your father committed suicide out of fear of crime."

Zhou Tianmin snorted coldly, "Who knows whether what he said is true or false!"

Ye Zhizhi had already hinted this far, but Zhou Tianmin hadn't realized it yet. He could only say that he was indeed not very smart.

Huang Ruyu on the side came out to smooth things over and said, "I have sent a message to my father before. He is now waiting for you in the mansion. Let's go in quickly!"

The group of people entered the city lord's mansion, where Zhou Tianmin was still chattering to Huang Ruyu: "You have to be careful, your father is in danger!"

Huang Ruyu laughed, "My father walks and sits upright, there is nothing to worry about."

Now Zhou Tianmin was heartbroken, he was autistic and stopped talking.

Ye Zhizhi's mouth twitched when he saw this, feeling that he really didn't know how to look at people.

She raised her head and glanced at Jiang Huaiyi beside her, and saw that Jiang Huaiyi looked calm and cold, as if he didn't care about all this.

A group of people came outside the study.

Huang Ruyu walked into the study and called to the middle-aged monk sitting inside: "Father."

Huang Yingping, the city lord of Yinchuan City, put down the bamboo slips in his hands and looked up. He saw Ye Zhizhi, Jiang Huaiyi and his party quickly stood up to greet them, "I guess this is Master Jiang of Tianwen Sect!"

He accurately identified Jiang Huaiyi among the crowd, "Please sit over here and someone will serve you tea!"

"I once heard that Master Jiang broke into the case of a missing woman born in the Lunar Year in Chi City 50 years ago. The same incident also happened in Yinchuan this time. I would like Master Jiang to help me and solve the case as soon as possible!" City Lord Huang Yingping solemnly asked Jiang Huaiyi. road.

Jiang Huaiyi replied: "I will."

Hearing this, Huang Yingping showed a smile on his face, "Then I'll bother Master Jiang!"

After leaving City Lord Huang Yingping, Zhou Tianmin said with a sinister look on his face: "How is it? Did you see something? Is City Lord Huang a suspect?"

Ye Zhizhi thought he was annoying, so she directly retorted: "Do you think everyone is the same as you, suspicious? Even if you want to be suspicious, you must pay attention to the basic methods. In the face-to-face just now, what can you tell?"

"Don't worry, my father will never be the murderer." Huang Ruyu said, "Every city lord of Yinchuan City has sworn that anyone who violates the ancestral precepts and does unjust things will be punished by God."

Hearing this, everyone immediately looked sideways.

Zhou Tianmin opened his mouth, then lowered his head and said, "Sorry..."

Huang Ruyu smiled and didn't care, "This happened during the founding period of Yinchuan City. At that time, the environment of Yinchuan City was more dangerous than it is now. The desert was full of ferocious and terrifying monsters. Human beings lived in a corner and established small villages. A small city to protect itself and stay together to stay warm.”

"In this difficult and dangerous situation, the first city lord of Yinchuan City made this oath to borrow power from heaven, thus leading the residents of Yinchuan City through the most dangerous period, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. Since then, Yinchuan City has Every city lord of the city needs to make an oath to heaven."

This is the awareness of human survival in wild and remote places. The more dangerous the environment is, the more difficult it is to survive. The more we understand that staying together to stay warm and overcome difficulties together, survival is the first factor.

"What did you find out through your investigation?" Jiang Huaiyi raised his eyes and asked Feng Yuan, Huang Ruyu, and Xue Ningshuang.

"Let me explain!" Feng Yuan said, "I, Taoist Fellow Huang, Fellow Daoist Xue and several other fellow Taoists were investigating this matter together, but before we could find out anything, several other fellow Taoists were killed one after another. The only ones left alive are me, Daoyou Huang and Daoyou Xue.”

Mentioning this, the faces of Huang Ruyu and Xue Ningshuang on the side also looked sad.

The atmosphere was heavy for a while.

Even Zhou Tianmin, who had never been able to read the air, didn't say anything out of tune and became rarely quiet.

"Have you ever thought about why you can survive?" Ye Zhizhi pointed out this point as no one spoke, so she had no choice but to go in alone.

Feng Yuan, Huang Ruyu, and Xue Ningshuang were stunned when they heard this, "Is there any other reason for this?"

They had not thought of this before.

Ye Zhizhi raised his eyebrows, looked at them and said, "Don't you think this is your luck?"

"..."

"..." "..."

Feng Yuan, Huang Ruyu, and Xue Ningshuang fell silent immediately. This is really what they felt.

"Isn't it?" Zhou Tianmin said in an innocent tone, "Everyone else is dead, and they are the only ones who survived. Isn't this their great luck?"

Ye Zhizhi looked at him with deep eyes, you are really not very smart!

"Senior Brother Feng is an inner disciple of Tianwen Sect, Daoyou Huang is the son of the city lord, and Daoyou Xue's identity must be extraordinary, right?" Ye Zhizhi reminded them.

Xue Ningshuang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My father is the elder of Yaowang Valley."

"That's it!" Ye Zhizhi said, "I think the identities of your dead friends should be ordinary ones, such as casual cultivators, or disciples of small sects?"

Hearing this, Feng Yuan, Huang Ruyu and Xue Ningshuang were stunned.

Then there was a complicated expression on his face.

"No, no!" Zhou Tianmin shouted from the side, "She is really right. Does the murderer behind the scenes still depend on his identity? Dog eyes look down on others!"

"It's a warning." At this time, Feng Yuan also reacted. He said with an ugly expression: "He is warning us not to pursue the investigation any further."

"That's right, the murderer behind the scenes is trying to scare the monkeys!" Ye Zhizhi said in agreement, "No one cares if the monks of the small sect or the casual cultivators die."

"But if the son of the city lord or an important disciple of a large sect dies, he will cause endless trouble, so the real culprit behind the scenes is warning you not to investigate further."

Having said this, Ye Zhizhi smiled, "But he certainly didn't expect that you would go and bring reinforcements."

Hearing this, Feng Yuan's expression suddenly became awkward.

He was a junior fellow in the sect, and he was used to asking his superiors for help when encountering problems. He had no psychological baggage, so this time after several fellow Taoists died one after another, he really got cold feet and retreated.But he was not willing to give up like this.

He also wants to avenge his dead friend and find out the real culprit behind the scenes!

Feng Yuan felt that he couldn't handle it, so he decisively returned to the sect to recruit reinforcements.

He originally wanted to see if he could find out any useful information from Jiang Huaiyi, but he didn't expect Jiang Huaiyi to directly offer to help, so he naturally nodded and agreed without saying a word.

"but."

Ye Zhizhi looked at the three people in front of him: Feng Yuan, Huang Ruyu, and Xue Ningshuang, and asked a question, "Why are you investigating this case?"

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.

"Since we know that someone is secretly abducting innocent girls, we can't turn a blind eye!" Feng Yuan said with a righteous look.

Ye Zhizhi looked at him and changed his explanation, "How did you first discover that a girl in the city was missing for no reason?"

Feng Yuan was stunned.

At this time, Huang Ruyu said, "I discovered it."

"The daughter of a tavern I frequented was lost. When I saw the tavern owner looking sad, I asked him what difficulties he had encountered. The tavern owner then told me that his daughter was lost not long ago." Huang Ruyu said, "I talked to him Daoyou Feng, Daoyou Xue and several other friends went to find the boss's lost daughter, and unexpectedly discovered that many girls had been lost in the city in the past six months."

They sensed that something was wrong, so they continued to investigate in depth. As a result, after they found out that all the missing girls were born in the lunar year, their friends met with accidents one after another and were killed.

After hearing this, Ye Zhizhi said: "That's it."

Then she asked a question, "Is the tavern owner okay?"

Hearing this, Huang Ruyu was stunned.

Then he realized something and his expression changed drastically!
