Slow and immortal

Chapter 168

Chapter 167

Everyone present, except Xuanyuan Yi, who had an unharmed expression, including Qin Chuan and Qin Zi, felt their scalps go numb after hearing this.

The man with the birthmark stood in front of Xiao Yao aggressively: "This fellow Taoist saw that I was afraid, so he came to tease me?" After saying that, he stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Yao's skirt.

Xiao Yao frowned, took a step back slightly, and at the same time put a hand between the two of them, Sun Ergou raised his eyebrows and looked at the man and said: "This fellow, it's not a gentleman's doing, let's listen to what Xiao Daoyou said. It’s not too late to ask questions after you finish talking.”

Seeing being stopped, the man gave Sun Ergou a vicious look, snorted, stood aside and yelled, "Okay! Then let me see why she suspects us!"

Facing the man's desperation, Xiao Yao didn't take it seriously, and said seriously: "Thinking about it carefully, I don't refer to everyone present, but only to the three fellow Taoists."

As she spoke, she pointed and drew an arc between the man, the old man and the woman, and the expressions of all three of them changed immediately.

"Us?!" The old man's old face wrinkled even more, "Then why doesn't he count?"

He was referring to Sun Ergou, and he could tell just now that this female cultivator was in the same group as that handsome man, and a man and a woman who appeared later were also their companions. It is right to suspect outsiders, but Isn't this man who was besieged more suspicious?

Xiao Yao didn't explain, but asked instead: "Just now a large group of you gathered around and stared at him alone, but did you see how he released the black smoke in full view?"

The old man thought for a while, "This... I didn't see it." I only saw that he was busy dealing with the cultivators, but he really didn't put black smoke or anything.

Seeing that no one interrupted, Xiao Yao said again: "When the black smoke rose, Sun Daoyou was besieged by you and others. His every move was clearly seen by everyone, so the suspicion can be ruled out naturally. And the real perpetrator is using He concealed his cultivation as a turning point and waited for the opportunity to act. The black smoke suddenly overflowed from the chaos. There is no doubt that the assailant mingled with the crowd at the beginning. I believe everyone has no objection to this. The key is that after the black smoke dissipated , Has this person left? As I just said below, someone has passed through the "duankong" here, and according to the observation of Taoist Xuanyuan, no one has gone out of the black smoke range, and all signs indicate that the assailant is still here .And the assailant is very cunning. He knows that if he hides in the nearby bushes, he will be easily spotted by someone with strong spiritual sense. The best disguise is undoubtedly to continue to blend in with the crowd and become one of them. When the black smoke clears, fear of death Most people think that they are lucky to survive the disaster, and their guards are relaxed, and who would guess whether the perpetrators are still among them."

I have to say that her analysis is very reasonable, and it can even be said that she can't find any flaws.

"Humph! Ridiculous!"

Just as the old man and the woman remained silent, the man with the birthmark suddenly sneered and raised an objection, "Even if the murderer is really one of us, it is based on the fact that what you and that fellow Taoist said are all true. And Even if what you said is all the truth, it would be unfair to only suspect the three of us!"

"It's very simple." Xiao Yao looked at him calmly and said, "Since the four of us are in the same group, and the suspicion of Fellow Daoist Sun has been ruled out, then the suspicion will naturally fall on the three of you. Should you doubt your companion? This is common sense, I really don’t understand why fellow Daoists think it’s unfair.”

It turned out that she was only suspicious out of a defensive psychology. After hearing this, the man wanted to vomit blood, and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while, and said with a grim expression: "Actually, you are the perpetrator! From what you mean, it seems that the murderer is just One person can kill nearly [-] monks, most of them are Jindan monks, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to do it by yourself! What do you rely on?"

"Whether one person or more people analyze the corpses on the ground, we can draw a conclusion, but what fellow Taoist said is obviously untenable. If we are really the perpetrators, nearly 30 people will be killed, and four of you will be left behind." What do people do for a living? What's more, I have been guarding here all the time, and it is easy to leave, why should I stay and wait for nonsense with you?"

The man's face was ashen, but his mouth was still very sharp: "In that case, please don't ask fellow Taoist to say something that Zi Wu must have without evidence!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yao nodded seriously.

His straightforward attitude made the man a little unbelievable that she agreed so casually?But then her words made everyone turn pale again.

"Then if I confess frankly that I saw the whole process of the black smoke being released, and know who did it, do you believe it or not?"

She stood there with her eyes narrowed slightly, her originally peaceful face looked like a cunning fox at the moment, the surroundings were quiet and there was no sound at all, even Xuanyuan Yi's eyes flashed a touch of surprise.

"Fellow Daoist, this joke is not funny at all!" The man's originally angry eyes were now cold, like ice skates, "If you really knew the real murderer, you wouldn't have pointed at me and the other three in the first place, but It’s directly pointing out the real culprit! Now as long as you can produce evidence, I will believe it!”

"Fellow Daoist, don't be impatient. I wonder if you've heard of 'boiling frogs in warm water'?" Xiao Yao paused, gave him a meaningful look, and said in detail, "I've given a general range just to see what he will do next. What kind of mask is used to disguise himself, and at the same time it is to let him relax, thinking that he has not revealed his identity, otherwise it will be troublesome if he is pushed too fast and jumps over the wall without preparation."

The corners of the man's lips rose after hearing this, and he smiled coldly, "Since you choose to speak out at this moment, it means that you have made a complete plan, let everyone listen together, which unlucky ghost is going to take the blame again."

Xiao Yao ignored the sarcasm in his words, and just responded with a slight smile, "Whether it's true or not, you just need to listen to me speak slowly."

"First of all, this person's whereabouts are very mysterious, and his attack is also unknown, and the method is extremely cruel. Every time he makes a move, he not only uses black smoke as a mist, but also wraps his whole body in black smoke, intending to give people a mysterious and powerful feeling. A cruel illusion. In this way, when the rumor spreads, the monks who meet him will be affected to a certain extent in their hearts. They will lose three points in terms of momentum first, and if they panic in their hearts, they will be killed. But in fact, is he really He is so powerful that he can kill nearly 20 monks with his own power, including more than [-] Jindan monks? I think that unless he has the strength of Nascent Soul, it is simply impossible for Jindan monks to do it. However, how could the Qin family select the participants and let the Nascent Soul cultivator enter? Combined with his mysterious and sneaky whereabouts, it is not difficult to conclude that his strength may be good in the Jindan stage, but it is absolutely impossible to defeat a hundred with one. As for him, how is it? If you do it, I'm afraid it has a lot to do with the mysterious black smoke on its body. Of course, the psychological impact mentioned above will also account for a certain factor. According to the following observations, the faces of the corpses of those monks will show a strange smile, which is not like a person in a normal state. The expression that a murdered person should have, I have seen fellow practitioners lose their minds when they encounter black smoke. If I guess correctly, the black smoke has the effect of deceiving people's minds. In this way, he only needs to pretend to be An ordinary treasure hunter, who waits for an opportunity to approach and provoke everyone, releases black smoke to enchant the mind when they are not expecting it, the so-called owl and clam fight, the fisherman benefits, he can completely defeat everyone with one."

Speaking of this, the man became a little impatient, and interrupted her with a wave of his hand: "You have babbled for a long time, it is all hypothetical speculation, it is not evidence, I just want to know who the murderer is! Please specify!"

Since the other party didn't like to listen to long stories, Xiao Yao curled her lips and said, "Okay, Fellow Daoist thinks this is just a fiction, so I'll tell you the truth. The murderer is good at stirring up troubles to divert everyone's attention. I don't know if you still remember it." Who led everyone to point the finger at Daoyou Sun?"

"It's Qin Dan," the female cultivator answered first, her face was ugly and she clasped her hands tightly, "But...but he's already dead, there's no way he's the murderer!"

"Fellow Daoist, are you talking about the leading disciple of the Qin family? He was just raising doubts, and he didn't intend to guide everyone's thinking."

At this time, Sun Ergou, who had been silent since just now, spoke. "Fellow Daoist Xiao Yao is referring to the person who suddenly said that he was lucky?"

"Exactly!" Xiao Yao raised a smile, then turned her head to look at the three people with sharp eyes, "If I heard correctly, this sentence was said by this fellow Taoist."

In an instant, the man's face changed first, and then he burst out laughing, "I guessed it a long time ago, and you must be referring to me in the end! After all, I am the only one who disagrees with you among the people present! Indeed, I once said this But it is just out of curiosity, can this sentence alone be used as evidence to point out that I am the murderer?"

"Fellow daoist, don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet," she said, narrowing her eyes slightly, her eyes fixed on the man, "So...after this, I have been paying attention to the person who spoke, and put the black smoke out. Before and when he appeared, his every move was recorded, and the shadow transmission talisman was used as evidence."

The bright yellow talisman was swaying in Xiao Yao's hands at the moment, which was particularly conspicuous. At the same time, the man's originally calm face turned extremely ferocious in an instant, and the birthmark on his face suddenly became vivid, showing his teeth and claws.

"I've already said this joke is not funny at all."

As the birthmark on his face gradually moved and spread, it gradually spread all over the man's body, forming strange tattoos on his face and arms. Wisps of black smoke and rancid smell emitted from these tattoos!

In the next breath, a black long knife appeared in the man's hand, until he yelled at Xiao Yao,
"Prepare to die!"
