Chapter 28 City Lord
"Stop! I have a clue!"

You Su shouted and stopped everyone's movements.

"I met Master Uncle He."

A trace of surprise flashed in Wu Cheng's eyes. He looked at You Su's expression carefully and asked, "When have you met him?"

"August 12th."

When Wu Cheng heard this, he crossed his arms over his chest and began to think.

Today is August 17th.

Since Uncle He is often alone, it is normal to see him occasionally, so the exact time of his disappearance cannot be determined. But it can be roughly guessed that it was between the 10th and the 13th, because someone had seen him on the 9th. Can you Su Hu accurately say that it is within this range? Could it be that he really has a clue?

Contrary to You Su's guess, although the Shouxiao Sect usually left Master He alone, the disappearance this time received great attention from the Shouxiao Sect's leader, Master Wu Cheng, and the intensity of the investigation was considerable. Wu Cheng and others investigated for several days to no avail. They came here just for the sake of self-interest and pleasure, but they didn't expect to gain anything.

"I'm warning you, false testimony is a felony that is enough to land you in an immortal prison." Wu Cheng stared at You Su with his eyes wide open.

You Su ignored him. He turned to Ji Lingruo and said softly: "Junior sister, you go back to your room to rest first. I have something to say with them."

Ji Lingruo was about to say no when her jade hand was grabbed by You Su and squeezed gently. Yousu's hands were broad and strong, making her unable to help but want to believe him. She could only bite her lower lip and glance at You Su with concern and complaint, then glared at the group and retreated to her room.

Wu Ping looked at the girl's exquisite back and salivated.

After Ji Lingruo closed the door, You Su said, "At 12 o'clock in August, I went out to buy breakfast. When I came back, I met Uncle He on Xiliu Road."

"How can a blind man be sure that it is Uncle He? Did the two of you talk?"

"No. But Master Uncle He has been stupid for many years and has been unable to take care of himself. His whole body smells of feces and urine, and there is also the medicinal smell of Awakening Herb. He is the only one in Izumo with such a unique smell."

"Are there any witnesses?"

"Everyone on the street can testify."

"I'm asking for witnesses who can prove that you met Uncle He!" Wu Cheng's voice was loud, as if he was interrogating the prisoner.

You Su glanced at Wu Cheng and said with an angry smile: "Wu Cheng, I think you should know better than me. Apart from me, you are the only people who will take that path."

You here, of course, are the young monks who often surrounded Yousu on that inaccessible road.

"What do you mean!" Wu Cheng roared angrily, his hand already on the sword at his waist.

"I don't mean anything. If you doubt the authenticity of my words, you can ask the truth master from the sacred mountain to test me." You Su replied calmly.

Even if Shouxiao Sect could really invite those distinguished truth masters, You Su would not be afraid at all, because everything he said was true.

Wu Ping jumped to the side and said: "You Su, I think you are bluffing! If you really saw that fool on the 12th, then how come no one saw him on the 10th and 11th? Before he disappeared, you were the only one I have seen him in such a remote place. If you combine the two, wouldn't you be the most suspicious person?"

Wu Cheng glanced at his brother with approval. Wu Ping noticed his brother's eyes and looked proud.

"Then Wu Ping, let me ask you, since even you know that I will be suspected if I admit that I met Master He, why should I admit it?"

"how could I know?"

"Okay, then tell me what kind of cultivation Master Uncle He is?"

"The Lingtai realm is perfect." "I just broke through the Lingtai realm not long ago. Do you think I can defeat Master Uncle He who has reached the Lingtai realm?"

"How is that possible? Even if my uncle is stupid, you are not the one who can defeat him." Wu Ping rolled his eyes.

"Indeed, let me ask you again, is there anyone in this city who has enmity with Master He?"

"He is a fool, but he also has a certain level of cultivation. Everyone is afraid to avoid him. Who would make enemies with him?"

"If that's the case, then who will harm him?"

"Who will harm him? No one will harm him." Wu Ping was also confused by the question. He rubbed his head and asked himself, "Then why did Master He die?"

"Since no one in the city has any reason to harm him, it means that the murderer is someone else. If you don't go to the city gate to investigate the people who have come and gone recently, what are you searching for here?"

"Of course I'm here to make you sick!" Wu Ping answered very simply, feeling that he could answer every question asked by You Su easily, which was amazing.

Wu Cheng saw that his younger brother looked stupid and was being led around by others, and he felt that iron could not be transformed into steel. He interrupted harshly:

"That's enough! You Su, if you really have a clear conscience, why did you stop us from searching your home again and again? You can tell us a thousand words and we will have the answer after we finish the search!"

"Wucheng, are you really going to get into such a situation?" You Su's voice was as cold as the sound of a cold sword.

You Su really didn't want to make the matter a big deal. His only thought was to get rid of these outsiders who were like dog-skin plasters. Otherwise, according to his character, he would never take the initiative to admit that he had met Master He.

As for the room of the junior sister and junior wife, it was an absolutely forbidden area. Even if he dragged his sick body to fight to the point of exhaustion, he would not be able to let them take a step. He is not afraid of the enemy in the world, he is just afraid that he is not capable of dealing with it at this time.

Wu Cheng sneered, completely ignoring the threat in You Su's tone. What he hated most was the arrogant look in You Su's eyes at this moment.

He is a young and famous genius in Izumo City, and he is the future that the sect has high hopes for. In the near future, he will definitely set foot on the sacred mountain and leave his name there. Everyone has to look at him with admiration and envy, even if you are blind!
"Search everything except that woman's room!"

Wu Cheng gave the order and everyone started to move again.

Water tanks, clothes hangers, and wooden tables were all overturned to the ground, making chaotic noises. They turned over everything at hand at will, like gangsters who broke into the village.

A fat monk touched the door of the main hall. He smiled obscenely and said: "I heard that this blind man has a wife who never leaves home. Today I have to see what kind of beauty she is like a jade!"

He thought about the taste of those mature women in Chunxiang Building, and couldn't wait to push the door open.

The next moment, his two palms fell to the ground, as easily as fallen leaves blown by the wind. He was immediately frightened to death. He wanted to stop the blood spurting from his hands, but he had no palms to use.

Wu Cheng did not feel angry at the tragic situation of his men, but showed a smile of satisfaction.

Finally, I finally forced this blind man to take action!

He drew out his sword inlaid with gold and jade, licked the corner of his mouth, and rushed towards Yusu at an astonishing speed.

At this moment, the situation suddenly changed, and a strong coercion fell from the sky. Wu Ping and a group of outer monks even fell to their knees on the ground with painful expressions. Even You Su and Wu Cheng could only stop and use their Qi to resist.

"Stop it all!"

A rickety old man with gray hair and an angry face slowly walked in outside the dilapidated gate.

Yu Su remembered that this voice was none other than City Lord Liu, who had managed Izumo City for more than sixty years, and was also a good old man described by his master.
