Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1120 Old things
  Shao Yu crossed his arms and looked at the corpses thoughtfully, "Although there is death and no life after entering this forbidden area, we didn't see any corpses and bones along the way. Why is there only one here?"

Tianming didn't take it seriously, scratched his head and retorted, "Isn't it normal for someone to die in a ghost place like this? What's so weird about it?"

After briefly observing the posture of the corpse, Chitaki touched his chin and said, "It seems that this person should have passed away here... Of course, he may have died elsewhere, and then others moved his body here. .”

"So?" Tian Ming rubbed the back of his head stupidly, completely unable to understand the meaning.

Shao Yu rolled his eyes, "So there's a problem!"

"There are no mechanisms or traps in this place. How could this perfectly good person die here?"

"If the body was moved here later, what was the reason?"

"Uh... what you are thinking is quite complicated..." Tianming muttered, moved closer to the skeleton, and scanned it up and down carefully.

Because he had almost killed everyone by tampering with the stone at Dragon's Throat before, he had restrained himself from touching it.

By observing with his face almost touching, Tianming really discovered something interesting.

"Alas!" He pointed at the waist of the sitting corpse. "Look at his hands, they seem to have six fingers!"

"Really?" Shaoyu immediately cast his gaze over after hearing the sound, and Qianlong also lay behind Tianming and stuck his head out to observe.

The two of them had just looked at it carefully, but their main attention was on external objects such as clothing. As for bones... Generally speaking, is there anything rare about human bones?
  It just so happens that this corpse is special.

The two carefully observed the corpse's left finger bones, and sure enough, there were six.

"This man was born with six fingers on his right hand before he was born!" After Shao Yu confirmed it, his face became a little stagnant, "Wait a minute...six fingers on the left hand?"

"This feature feels a bit familiar!"

Qiantaki had a look of surprise at this moment, "This person... is most likely the former mogul of the Mo family who disappeared many years ago - the Six-fingered Black Man!"

"Yes, yes!" After hearing Qianlong's words, Shaoyu suddenly remembered, slapped his thigh and shouted, "It's him, it's him!"

"Because he was born with six fingers on his left hand, he was born in the Mohist family, and he always wore a black robe to cover his face, so he was called the 'Six-fingered Black Man'."

"I remember...not long before the assassination of Qin happened, he disappeared inexplicably. Since then, he has not been seen alive or dead."

"These fingers and clothes are all perfect!"

Speaking of this, Shao Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Unexpectedly, he died quietly in the forbidden area of ​​​​the Mo family..."

It was precisely because the Six-fingered Black Man disappeared at a relatively subtle time on the eve of the assassination of Qin that Shao Yu knew something about him.

After listening to Shao Yu's introduction, Tianming pointed to the corpse and asked with some uncertainty, "I remember you said that Juzi is the name of the boss of the Mo family. He is the former Juzi, so... he is the former boss of the Mo family, uh... Or should I say boss?"

Shao Yu slapped Tian Ming's finger off angrily, "You boy, be more respectful!"

After basically confirming that this corpse was the Six-fingered Black Man, Shao Yu's attitude towards it was unconsciously much more respectful.

"This is the senior six-fingered black man. I remember Master Fan told me that he was the teacher of the current giant. He was also the leader of the hundreds of schools at that time. He was the number one master of the hundreds of schools. He once fought against the five great masters of the Yin-Yang family by himself. The master will not be left behind, and will retreat wholeheartedly." "One against five!" Tianming listened to Shao Yu's voice, subconsciously flexed his fingers, and let out an exclamation.

He has seen the elders of the Yin and Yang family before - very powerful and terrifying!
  This old boss can actually fight five of them by himself, he is so strong!
  However, this raised a question in Tianming’s mind:
  "Since the six-fingered boss is so strong, how could he...die here?"

After Tianming asked subconsciously, he felt a little embarrassed and felt a little disrespectful to the late senior.

This time, Shaoyu didn't feel that Tianming had offended his senior. He just curved the corners of his mouth and shook his head in frustration, "I don't know."

"The disappearance of Senior Six-Fingered Black Man was a mystery from beginning to end. Even if we see his bones today, we have only confirmed that he was dead - in fact, there has been no news for so many years, and no one should think that he is still alive."

"As for what happened back then, it's a mystery... I don't know if this mystery can still be solved."

Tian Ming asked subconsciously, "Since he is so powerful, there shouldn't be many people in the world who can kill him, right?"

After thinking for a moment, Shaoyu nodded and said, "It's really not much."

"Actually, there was a theory before that the Six-fingered Black Man disappeared because he was chased by Wei Zhuang and died somewhere unknown."

"Weizhuang?" Tianming was surprised, "Is that guy so powerful?"

Tianming, who doesn't know much about the specific strength differences among the masters in the world, still doesn't understand what kind of existence Wei Zhuang represents in today's world.

Chitaki hesitated for a moment and then continued, "Strictly speaking, at that time there were only a few people in the world who had the ability to kill the Six-Fingered Black Man."

"According to what I know, only the Imperial Sword Master Gai Nie at that time had established Wei Zhuang of Niliusha, and... the Imperial National Master Gu Xun."

"Perhaps there are some elders from various schools of thought who no longer show up much, and they may also have such strength, but... the probability is not high."

Shao Yu nodded and agreed, "That's more or less the case. However, the whereabouts of Sword Master Gai Nie and National Master Gu Xun are highly concerned, so they hardly have time to do this, and Wei Zhuang has never denied this. , so the idea that Wei Zhuang was the culprit became very popular and was accepted by most people."

"Even the Mo family basically blamed Wei Zhuang for this."

"If you put it that way, it's probably him who did it!" After Tianming heard this, his first reaction was that the Jianghu people had not wronged Wei Zhuang.

If there is motive, ability, and time, but the person involved does not refute it, isn’t it a certainty?
  Chitaki subconsciously denied Tianming's conjecture, "No, it's not him."

Shaoyu glanced at her strangely, "How can you be so sure?"

"Uh..." Qiantaki was stunned for a moment. He didn't explain clearly, but just responded vaguely, "I happen to know some inside information, but it's not too detailed."

"In short, Wei Zhuang definitely didn't kill him."

Tian Ming had a look of surprise in his eyes, but he suppressed his desire to speak.

Since the goddess doesn't want to talk, of course he has to keep his mouth shut.

Shaoyu was already used to Qianlong's mystery and had no intention of getting into the details. He smiled and ignored the topic.
