Brocade clothing

Chapter 35
After Chu Qing walked in, the door of the wing room was closed, and a chessboard was placed on the short table in front of the Taoist priest. There were two pieces of black and white. The pieces were crystal clear, and they were the best white jade and obsidian.Each one is priceless, but these fine jade stones were made into pawns by this Taoist priest. Chu Qing looked around again, clicked her tongue in her heart, and said that this Taoist temple was not weird, she didn't even believe it.

A Taoist priest who is detached from the mundane world can enjoy it quite a bit.

Chu Qing walked a few steps and stopped moving: "This Taoist priest, what do you want to do with me?"

Daoist Xuankong pointed to the seat opposite, "My lord, please sit down."

Chu Qing was not polite, she took off her shoes and got on the soft couch, knelt down, and glanced at the chessboard, "Could it be that the Daoist wants me to play chess with you, I don't know how."

Taoist Xuankong said: "Of course not. The poor Taoist thinks that the young master is kind, and wants to form a good relationship with the young master."

"Oh?" Chu Qing half-opened her eyes and cast a sideways glance at him.

"I don't know your surname?" Xuankong asked long.

"Liu." Chu Qing shook the fan in his hand, and spoke casually, his movements were loose but full of dignity.

A flash of clarity flashed in the eyes of Taoist Xuankong, as if he had confirmed what he was thinking, and the smile in his eyes became stronger: "Listen to the little Taoist in the temple, the young master wants to ask for a marriage?"

Chu Qing nodded and said: "No, I don't know when I can find a beautiful wife. I heard that the saying is very effective. I wonder if you can take a look for me?"

Daoist Xuankong pretended to look at the palmistry with Chu Qing, and said a few words, all kinds of flickering, but Chu Qing came here to pretend to be a fool and didn't want to drink, so he automatically offered 1000 taels of silver to Xuankong The smile in Daoist Kong's eyes became more sincere, and before Chu Qing was about to leave, he said: "Poverty thought that Mr. Liu's marriage will come soon."

"Oh?" Chu Qing stood still, "What does the Taoist priest mean?"

"Young master will come back in a few days, and you will know." Taoist Xuankong smiled quite meaningfully.

Chu Qing didn't say much, she came here to confirm what she thought in her heart, it seems that Taoist Priest Xuankong is really not simple, at least, the view of the Three Purities is not so simple.

But as soon as Chu Qing walked out of the wing room, she saw a little Taoist priest walking over in a hurry, and she didn't care to say anything when she passed by Chu Qing's side. Through the gap, Chu Qing saw him approaching Taoist Priest Xuankong After whispering a few words, Taoist Xuankong's expression changed: "Really?"

The little Taoist said: "It's absolutely true, the sect leader should go and have a look, otherwise it's over, I'm afraid there will be a big trouble..."

The Taoist master hummed, and the little Taoist priest who followed left. Before they came out, Chu Qing flashed into the rockery next to him, and when they were far away, he wanted to sneak into the room of Taoist Xuankong to have a look. See if you can find anything useful.

It's just that as soon as she moved, she felt a force grabbing her arm and pulling her back behind the rockery.

As soon as Chu Qing's face changed, she was about to strike. The man behind her was extremely powerful, and her big palm covered her mouth, making Chu Qing unable to move at all.Chu Qing struggled, unable to break free, her mind exploded with a buzz, isn't it, it's so unfavorable to be a teacher?

A man's deep and indifferent voice came from behind: "Don't move." Breathing on the base of her ears, Chu Qing dodged to the side uncomfortably.

Chu Qing immediately felt that the man's movements increased a bit, and she pursed her lower lip, not daring to move.

Immediately, Chu Qing saw a few people quickly walked into Taoist Xuankong's room, carrying something in their hands, and disappeared without a trace after entering.

Chu Qing waited for those people to leave again, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: I almost fell into it. If I did, my money for the past two days would be wasted.

Only then did the man let go of the hand covering Chu Qing's mouth, and let go of Chu Qing.

Chu Qing turned her head and looked over immediately, and when she met the man's dark eyes, she was slightly stunned: "Is it you?"

The man wore a mask, and when he heard Chu Qing's words, he squinted his eyes and said, "Can you recognize it?"

Chu Qing wiped her lips unnaturally with her sleeve, and still felt the touch of the man covering her lips just now was still there, and when she felt strange and wiped off, she glanced at the mask on the man's face, no wonder she heard the voice just now It sounds familiar, so it's him - the master of Mr. Yu.

"Why are you here? Where is Mr. Yu? Didn't you agree to go to Guju Pavilion to find him if you have something to do? As for how you recognized you, see? Can you recognize my face? Look People can't just look at the face, but at the bones of the face, at least, as long as your skull remains the same, in my eyes, it doesn't make any difference whether you wear a mask or not." Chu Qing casually explained, and wanted to go to Taoist Xuankong again. Looking around the room, she was also curious about what those people brought over just now.

"You don't need to look at Taoist Priest Xuankong's wing, there is nothing usable there." Li Tianxiao had sent someone to check it a long time ago. If there was one, he wouldn't have waited until today to find... the remains.

Before Chu Qing could say anything, he heard a loud shout from a distance: "Dead——Dead—"

Chu Qing raised her eyebrows, "Is someone dead?"

Li Tianxiao hummed expressionlessly. He glanced at Chu Qing. He was so close, but this person's face changed again. If Yu Zhufeng hadn't said that he would come and happened to see him, otherwise he would still I'm really not sure this is the previous Mr. Chu.The change in his face was indeed not small. It seemed that he could indeed see his face from the skull alone.

It was originally inconvenient for him to go out of the palace, but when he heard the phrase "not to be reborn", he couldn't help but want to come and see what the Taoist priest who killed her looked like in the past. In the past, this was all handled by Yu Kuifeng Yes, but after thinking about it for a day and a night, he still sneaked out of the palace without even bringing a hidden guard with him.

Chu Qing took a few steps forward, saw that the man didn't move, and yelled again: "Are you going? He's dead." This was a good opportunity, and she couldn't find a way to live in Sanqing Temple permanently. Suddenly, I found a reason.

The man glanced at Chu Qing and followed silently.

When Chu Qing arrived at the place, there were pilgrims who heard the movement on the inner, third and outer third floors of a wing room in the backyard. Through the cracks of people, Chu Qing saw Taoist Xuankong standing with the little Taoist priest before. Next to the corpse, the deceased is being rescued.

Thinking of Taoist Xuankong's flustered look, Chu Qing frowned. She thought for a while, opened the folding fan and squeezed in. When she saw the corpse, she yelled: "Ah--he's dead!"

Her voice attracted the attention of Daoist Xuankong, her expression was not gloomy at first, but when she saw that it was Chu Qing, her expression became a little better: "Mr. Liu, why are you here?"

"Ah, I heard that someone died here, so I came to have a look." Chu Qing glanced at Fuchen standing in front of him, and said to Taoist Xuankong, "Daozhang, can I take a look?"

"This..." Daoist Xuankong said hesitantly.

"Master Xuankong, you see, I finally came here. I haven't seen a dead person yet..." She acted a little indifferent to human life, and the pilgrims who attracted the onlookers looked at her frequently, but Chu Qing didn't care , only looked at Daoist Xuankong.

Priest Xuankong gritted his teeth and said, "Let Mr. Liu in."

Chu Qing walked around the corpse and returned to Daoist Xuankong. The deceased was a middle-aged man over forty years old. He was stabbed in the back and died. The clothes on his back were lying on the ground, face sideways, palms down, looking carefully, it seemed to cover something, only a little bright red was exposed, Chu lightly looked at his fingers, and sure enough, he found blood stains.It seems that the place where his hand is covering should be written.

Chu Qing looked at the layout of the room, and when she noticed something, she frowned, but closed her eyes calmly, and stopped talking.

Soon the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice came, drove them out, started the autopsy and wrote the autopsy list, and then lifted the body up. Chu Qing looked over from the outside, but what surprised Chu Qing was that there should have been something under the palm of the deceased. The place where the words are written is completely clean.

She couldn't help looking at Daoist Xuankong, who was also staring at the corpse, seemed very nervous, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, it was obvious that Daoist Xuankong was guilty.Chu Qing remembered the previous conversation between Taoist priest Xuankong and the little Taoist priest, and frowned. It seems that the covered words were mostly wiped off by Taoist priest Xuankong.

But why?

Is this person's death related to Taoist Xuankong?
The assistant of the Ministry of Punishments finally and tentatively judged that it was homicide, and it was murder in a secret room.

After Chu Qing waited for the people from the Ministry of Punishment to leave, she waited outside. When Daoist Xuankong came over, she asked if she could stay for two more days with an "excited" face, and told Daoist Xuankong that she had never seen it before. After solving the case, Taoist Xuankong seemed very anxious, so he agreed casually, and asked the little Taoist priest to take her to the wing.

Chu Qing entered the wing room, and just sat down, the door was knocked, Chu Qing opened it, and saw Li Tianxiao walking in.

"You...why are you still leaving?" Chu Qing frowned.

Li Tianxiao went straight to his seat and sat down, his menacing eyes gave people a sense of oppression.It was strange for Chu Qing to be stared at by him. She lowered her head to look at her clothes, and after seeing nothing wrong, she said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Why did you frown when you looked at the corpse just now? Did the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice examine it correctly?" Li Tianxiao spoke slowly. If he hadn't noticed her expression was different, he might have gone back to the palace long ago.But it was rare for him to be interested, even for such a trivial matter.

"...Isn't it right?" Chu Qing didn't expect this person to see that her expression was wrong, after thinking about it, she still told this person.

Speaking of what she is going to do, it has something to do with him. It was originally to help him find the body, otherwise, she wouldn't have to stay in the Sanqing Temple.

"What's wrong?" Li Tianxiao asked.

"That person didn't kill him, but committed suicide." Chu Qing affirmed.

"How is it possible? The dagger stabbed him in the back. Judging from the depth, it couldn't be a suicide." Li Tianxiao affirmed. On his originally indifferent face, there was a rare expression of bewilderment.
