I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 313: This murder case cannot be investigated

The minefield in the East China Sea is like a natural barrier, has isolated the two sides of the Taiwan Strait for thousands of years.

Under the blockade propaganda of Emperor Wan Jing, the people of Daxing only knew that the Dongzhou Daomen lived far away from home and were a group of barbarians who only knew how to practice killing.

But in the eyes of Dongzhou people, the Daxing Dynasty was also synonymous with luxury and backwardness.

Most of the inherited techniques are side effects passed down by Taoist sects.

Apart from developing a large amount of extravagant culture due to the pursuit of pleasure, it has no advantages at all.

There were also some Taoist monks who tried their best to travel to Daxing in black sailboats to study.

But after coming back, it seems that apart from learning a few Huajie ditties, I have gained nothing else.

However, recently, the name of a person from the Daxing Dynasty has spread to the territory of Dongzhou.

That is Cao An.

You know you are not dead, but you don’t know how to deal with it, and you even refuse to tell everyone the basis for your judgment?
Listening to this, why does it feel like I am being mysterious?
Cao An did not explain, and even stood by indifferently. He did not participate in helping. He just looked at Sima Shu. He wanted the information about 'Sanghuai' and left without stopping.

Cao An, who was in his twenties, entered the scene and made incomprehensible inferences, which was really hard to convince. It was considered to be arrogant, and it was normal to refute it.

The practice of medical skills is accumulated over time. The famous doctors and alchemists present are somewhat capable, and they know each other well.

After all, the "Seven Sound Box" that fell into the seabed has not been salvaged until now. The operation has yielded nothing, which is really sad when you think about it.

Of course, it has already been calculated.

"Fellow Taoist Cao An, I heard what you said, my junior brother is not dead? Then how to save him?" Behind him, the disciples of Ziyun Valley asked anxiously.

Cao An:......

Especially in the battle of the Holy Ship, more than ten top forces joined forces and threatened to create a seamless situation, but they were almost defeated by Cao An alone.

However, judging from the other party's polite inquiry, if possible, Cao An would also be willing to help.

"You are a living Class-A intelligence agent! Tsk, tsk, tsk, you've made a lot of money." Sima Shu wrote furiously on the side.

As we all know, Cao An is not proficient in treating people alive, but in sentencing them to death. His judgment on murder cases is still very credible.

However, this person's surprise made the questioning voices around him lower a bit.

This guy is here again. His own system didn’t prompt him to solve the case, but this guy is just going to sell information? The celebration banquet must have started a little early, Cao An shook his head helplessly.

No wonder Sima Shu said he looked familiar, but couldn't pronounce his name.

But if this person is Cao An, then the situation is different.

Even if he doesn't know what official positions there are in the Tsing Yi Department and Shui Xiu Department, at least Cao An's reputation as a detective is well-known overseas.

Cao An was not a talented person in Dongzhou, but after the Holy Ship incident, his portrait was also circulated. Sima Shu only glanced at the portrait and never thought that Cao An would come to Dongzhou in person.

"It's a pity that I am not a doctor. I can only judge that this person's life is still alive. I have no idea how to deal with it in the future."

Cao An was still not used to the title of fellow Taoist.

"The sudden change in Ziyun Valley: Grade A intelligence;
"Cao An solved the strange case: Class A intelligence;
"Combining these two, that's the price of the top three. You can get promoted and make a fortune!"

Because of this, Cao An's name is valued by various sects.

But he wanted to leave, but Sima Shu opposite him didn't want to!

This is a world-famous detective who possesses Class-A intelligence. Wouldn't it be a huge loss if Cao An is not allowed to demonstrate on-site how to solve the case?

and……

"Brother Cao, is this not right?" Sima Shu's eyes showed shrewdness. He took out his hand and pulled out a five-inch small scroll from behind his buttocks. He unfolded it and it was densely filled with information, all of which seemed to be about Cao An.

"Cao An is affiliated with the Qingyi Department of the Daxing Dynasty and serves as one of the five banners of Shuixiu."

"Advantage: speaking for the dead."

"Disadvantages: I am laid-back, not working at night, does not like to practice martial arts, loves money and lust, is a married woman and an oiran, and does not reject anyone who comes..."

Cao An:......

"Wait a minute, I only have one advantage? I have so many disadvantages?"

"Well, the spies we arranged to go to Daxing only found out this much." Sima Shu also scratched his head in confusion.

It stands to reason that if Cao An can become famous all over the world and have many people worshiping him, he should be outstanding in talent.

Why is this rating so low?

"Where did you get the information? Is it so unreliable?"

"Of course we went inside the Tsing Yi Department. We bribed an official in the department to get the information."

"What does the official look like?"

"He is fat and has a small green book in his hand. He looks quite honest."

"...If he were honest, Huajie's business would be reduced by half."

There is no doubt that Cao An also received Dongzhou's attention after the Holy Ship incident.

It was thought that various sects wanted to find out information about him, so they entrusted [Qiansi Mansion] to cross the sea to collect a batch of information. Unexpectedly, they met the liar Zhu Xian.

Although from a certain perspective, Zhu Xian gave a batch of false information specifically to protect Cao An.

But can't you make his image a little taller?

Of course, these are not important.

Regarding Cao An's character, one thing is very clear, and that is his style of "speaking for the dead". No matter where he encounters a mystery, he will help immediately.

The known Daxing, Beiyan, Nanchu, Shengchuan... all left behind his glorious deeds.

"But why did Brother Cao come to my Dongzhou and refuse to investigate the case? Otherwise, I [Qiansi Mansion] owe you a favor? The price is whatever you want, how about you help investigate the case?"

Sima Shu suggested to Cao An with a smile, he seemed quite enthusiastic?

But Cao An always felt that this person's thoughts may not be pure, and it was not as simple as watching the fun.

Cao An shook his head regretfully and said, "It's not that I don't help, it's that I can't investigate this case."

"No way to check?" Sima Shu looked stunned. This answer was beyond his expectation!
"Unable to check" and "undetectable" are two different concepts.

Since Cao An said there was no way to investigate, did he mean that it was not convenient for him to take action on this case? Who is disturbing him?
The Ziyun Valley disciple on the side stepped forward again and said: "Fellow Taoist, I wonder what you are hiding? You can tell me, and I, Ziyun Valley, will definitely cooperate. Is there any reason why I can't find out?"

Judging from this anxious tone, it seems that he is a direct disciple of Ziyun Valley?
His words do hold some weight.

"It's a pity that you can't make the decision in this matter. Am I right?" Cao An still shook his head, but he also put the question aside more clearly.

Everyone followed Cao An's gaze and discovered that what Cao An was referring to was actually an elder from Ziyun Valley who was responsible for the reception.

What's even more bizarre is that when faced with Cao An's questioning, the elder also fell silent.

What's the meaning? Is it Ziyungu himself who obstructs Cao An's investigation?
