Back mountain of Emei.

The ancient trees are towering and green. In addition to the slightly damp and the bites of mosquitoes, they can be regarded as a scenic spot.

This place is listed as a forbidden area by the Emei Sect, but there is nothing surprising in fact. The scenery of the primitive jungle was also very common in ancient times. However, every time you walk a long way, you can see a towering tomb, which makes this primitive forest look a little gloomy.

"The ancestors and ancestors are above. Today's disciples are definitely not deliberately strife. It is because of the situation. I have no choice but to bring outsiders in. Please ask our ancestors to understand clearly."

"You must be careful when walking. If the weapons are long and put away, don't accidentally bump into the tomb of my ancestors."

Whenever the Emei Sect members came to a grave, they would kowtow and pray, and at the same time they would remind people from all sects over and over again.

Although he was so tired of it, no one blamed him. At most, he complained twice. After all, the dead are the most important. Some believe in ghosts and gods, and they even apologize and pray with the Emei Sect's disciples.

In this way, the speed will naturally not be faster.

Moreover, the back mountain was very wide, and everyone only saw Dugu Yihe fleeing into the back mountain, but no one saw the specific part of the back mountain, so they could only rely on a large number of people to search aimlessly.

"Look at that." As he searched, a man suddenly pointed at the distance and shouted.

Everyone hurriedly looked in the direction.

I saw wisps of black smoke coming out in the distance.

"Who is the young girl? How dare you set fire in my forbidden area of ​​Emei? Looking for death!" An elder of the Emei Sect roared and ran towards the black smoke.

The other Emei disciples rushed over angrily.

On the contrary, the various factions who agreed to lead the supervision were left to the spot.

"Ahem, let's go there too." Taoist Shi Yan, who had the best relationship with the Emei Sect, spoke first.

Everyone is in trouble.

Today is destined to be the most bleakest day for the Emei Sect.

Everyone came to the place where black smoke came out, and before they could ask whether the person who set fire was caught, they were completely shocked by the scene in front of them.

In front of me, a solemn tomb stands high. The tombstone has been erected, but it has not been engraved yet, there are no tributes in front of the stele, and the tomb door has not been closed, indicating that this is a tomb that has been repaired but has not been put into use.

All Emei disciples knelt in front of this grave, spontaneously besieged the city, lowered their heads and cried loudly, and the miserable sobs and sobs echoed between the entire mountain forest, scaring away countless birds and beasts.

Inside the circle, the Emei elder who led the lead was like a bullied child, sitting on the ground with no image, holding a charred body as black as carbon, and wailing and crying.

"Wuwu... Senior Brother, are you dying so miserable? Wuwu... God, you are so unfair! Wuwu..."

"who?"

"Who is that dead?"

"Dugu Yihe?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Taoist Shi Yan, Master Kuzhi, Hua Ruling and others rushed to the elder quickly, pointing at the burnt corpse in his arms that was no longer human-shaped, and asked questions.

"Is this... Master Dugu?"

"Are you sure you admit it?"

"His grandma, she was alive before, so she's dead now? Are you teasing me?"

"The Master Dugu's martial arts are so powerful that he has few opponents in the world. How could he die inexplicably?"

"This is my senior brother." Elder Emei choked and cried out loudly.

Everyone looked at each other, still a little unbelievable.

Even though Dugu Yihe escaped halfway through the ring before, no one thought that Dugu Yihe would die, otherwise they would not have the idleness to wait in the martial arts field. Then they cursed each other, suspected Li Yang, and bargained for entry into the Emei Forbidden Land... They had long been running over without caring about it.

If I had come a while ago, I might have been able to catch the murderer.

But who is the murderer?

Not only is this murderer capable of killing Dugu Yihe, he even had to burn and torture the body in a crazy way. How big is this? What kind of grudge is this?

Looking at Dugu Yihe's tragic corpse, Taoist Shi Yan, Master Kuzhi and others couldn't help but feel sad. Even Hua Ruling, who had not had a deep friendship with Dugu Yihe, could not help feeling a little uncomfortable. After all, there were people who had known each other for decades, and there were also wise people who lowered their heads to ponder, and some people had silently turned their doubtful eyes to Li Yang.

After all, Li Yang has a motive for murder and has a grudge against Dugu Yihe. He was on the ring just now and showed martial arts that were not lower than Dugu Yihe. In addition, Li Yang could not see whether he was happy or sad at this moment... All signs indicate that Li Yang was the most likely one.

A very simple truth, and even no reason is needed. According to normal logic, anyone will doubt Li Yang.

More and more doubtful eyes focused on Li Yang.

"What do I do? Isn't my brain long? Since Dugu Yihe ran away for no reason, I have been with you all the time. How can I kill someone? Are you a clone?" Li Yang responded mercilessly.

Why should those who still doubt him at this time give them mercy?

What's more, his absent evidence is so obvious, everyone present is a witness.

Being suspicious one after another, and this kind of brainless suspicion that ignores evidence, even Li Yang's good temper was a little angry.

But even so, some doubtful eyes remained on Li Yang and did not go for a long time, especially the Emei Sect's people.

There is no way, the Emei Party’s hostility towards Li Yang has been around for a day or two. Today, with Dugu Yihe’s death, it has accumulated to a peak. If it weren’t for the lack of evidence, it would have been attacked by Li Yang.

"Lu Xiaofeng, Sikong Zhaixing, how long do you have to stay in the tree?" Hua Manlou suddenly spoke.

Two figures fell from the tree in response, and it was Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing.

"Oh, I know I can't hide." Lu Xiaofeng sighed.

"Who told you not to run away, and you still insisted on pulling me, hiding in the tree together like a thief." Sikong Zhaixing said indignantly.

"If you don't run, you're just like a thief, if you run, you're like a murderer."

Sikong Zhaixing was silent.

He is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart and naturally understands Lu Xiaofeng's worries.

If you are not a murderer, what will you run away?

Once they run away, it will only make people more suspicious, and they will confirm the name of the murderer. After all, someone has noticed them long ago. Now Hua Manlou calls them down to explain them clearly, which is also kind-hearted, otherwise it will be difficult to explain afterwards.

In fact, they are already suspected now.

The Emei disciples who were kneeling on the ground all stood up at some point and surrounded Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing. The elder had also gotten up, drew his sword and rushed to the front of the two of them, and questioned angrily.

"Tell me, are you the ones who killed my senior brother?"

Sikong Zhaixing immediately raised his hand to defend himself, "Don't blame a good person for being wronged. I'm the best in the world when stealing things, but I'm really not good at killing people. Besides, I can't beat Dugu Yihe."

It is said that Sikong Zhaixing uses stealing techniques, disguise techniques, and light skills to spread throughout the world, but these are all minor Taoisms. I have never heard of how high his martial arts are.

"That's you?" The elder turned to question Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng saw that he was out of control of his emotions, such as a mad dog caught and bitten him, so he dared not hide it. He immediately reported what he saw and heard.

"Sikong Zhaixing and I came a while ago, but we only saw Dugu Yihe being burned by fire. We wanted to save each other, but the terrain was not familiar with us and we could not find the water source. And at that time, Dugu Yihe had been burned to death..."

What is reasonable and proved to the on-site traces, there is no difference. Lu Xiaofeng's suspicion has been cleared, and it is impossible to completely clear it.

Unless the murderer is caught.

After the Great Jinpeng King, Lu Xiaofeng felt that she was going to have trouble again.

Just as I thought of this, Jin Jiuling's voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"Who is this tomb for?"

Everyone turned around and found that Jin Jiuling had stood near the grave at some point and was visiting the tomb gate. If it weren't for the presence of the Emei Gate, they would have gone in.

"This is the tomb of my senior brother in charge." Elder Emei whispered.

I died in front of my tomb...

Everyone looked at each other, feeling that Dugu Yihe's death was even more bizarre.

The elder of Emei said to Jin Jiuling again: "Brother Jin is the world's number one god arrester. No matter how difficult the case is, it can be solved within nine days. Today, my senior brother died tragically. I have to ask Brother Jin to worry. After catching the murderer, Emei will be rewarded with great retribution."

"I'm so serious, handling cases and arresting people is my responsibility."

In fact, there is no need for the Emei Elder to say much. Jin Jiuling was born as a constable. As soon as he arrived here, his eyes had already started searching for clues on the spot, and he actually found one at the tomb gate.

In fact, it was not what he discovered, but what he exposed himself.

"Everyone, come and see." Jin Jiuling hurriedly greeted everyone.

Everyone immediately gathered beside Jin Jiuling and looked at the tomb door together.

It is not uncommon to have the tomb door open. After all, the tomb has not been put into use yet, and the anti-theft mechanism inside has not been built yet. Naturally, the tomb door has to be opened and the craftsmen have to build the mechanism well, and the body is put into the coffin before closing it.

Jin Jiuling was standing under the tomb door, looking up at the mesh gap between the tomb door and the stone wall above his head, where a drop of red liquid slowly oozed out and was about to fall.

"That's it?"

Everyone couldn't help but stretched their necks and moved closer, wanting to see more clearly.

Jin Jiuling directly stretched out his finger, wiped off the red liquid, handed it to the end of his nose, smelled it, and said with certainty: "It's blood, human blood!"

"How could this tomb smudge blood?"

"Or human blood?"

"Could it be... it was the Master Dugu who died in vain and was injustice?"
To be continued...
