Zhao Cheng and other four forbidden immortals gathered around Lu Changfeng, while Yun Xiao remained silent and followed behind.
The cold female forbidden immortal named Gu Yuan suddenly said: "Brother Feng, although there are prohibitions in the heavenly rules, murder cases are rare in the fairyland, but they are rare and common. Hatred and fights in the fairyland happen from time to time..."
"What do you want to say?" Lu Changfeng said calmly.
Gu Yuan lowered his head slightly and said: "The murder case in Sifeicheng, why do we need to carry out the mission in this remote place?"
On the road of cultivation in Yunxiao, the Great Dao Fairyland is the place with the strictest rules.
Even murder here is restricted by heavenly rules, whereas elsewhere, killings are done casually.
It stands to reason that the most unavoidable thing in the Immortal Way is killing and competition. The laws and regulations in the Immortal Realm are so strict, it should be a prosperous and peaceful age.
What Yun Xiao saw in Sifeicheng was that the people were indeed in good health.
But everything in the Ascension Pool made him understand that this world was full of undercurrents.
Gu Yuan's doubts seemed to be those of several other Forbidden Immortals.
Lu Changfeng sneered and said, "The murder case in Sangju City is not the same as other murder cases."
"What's so special?" Zhao Cheng paid full attention and listened carefully.
Lu Changfeng said: "The perpetrator didn't care about killing people, but he also hung the bodies of the nine deceased people on the city gate to frighten the city order and make the noise known to everyone. This is a blatant provocation to the heavenly law enforcement agency! If it is not dealt with, it will affect the department.
Tianfu’s reputation.”
"I see!"
Several forbidden immortals nodded.
If you kill, just kill, you have to make a big fuss and defy the laws of heaven.
If we don't deal with it, we really can't explain it to the people of Sangju City.
As soon as they said this, the six of them had already left Sitian Mansion.
"Drive the Sitian Sword Boat and you can arrive at Sangju City in a quarter of an hour. Be careful not to disturb the sword boat's fairy source!"
Lu Changfeng's last words were to Yun Xiao. In his opinion, Yun Xiao was the only novice here who was using Si Tian Jianzhou for the first time.
No one taught him.
"Yes, Brother Feng."
Several Forbidden Immortals entered a Sitian Sword Boat respectively.
The quantity of this thing is limited, and it is impossible for no one to equip one. When you need to use it, you need to make a special application.
Lu Changfeng has obviously already applied.
Yun Xiao also entered a Sitian sword boat, closed the boat door, activated the power of the sword boat's immortal source, and drove the magic circle.
Boom boom boom!
A total of six Sitian sword boats took off and then turned sideways, with the sword tips pointing north.
"Set off!"
Amid the roar, Si Tian's sword boat flashed away and disappeared over Sifei City.
Yun Xiao lay 'lying' in the sword boat, overlooking the vast clouds and smoke of the Great Dao Fairyland, and saw that as the sword boat was speeding, various large and small heavenly palaces were flying below.
The closer this area is to Sifei City, the more prosperous it becomes.
About half a quarter of an hour later, there were not many people down there, and the Great Dao Xianyuan became a little thinner.
"arrive!"
A quarter of an hour later, Si Tian Jianzhou began to slow down, until an exquisite small town in the fairy mist appeared in front of him, and then landed suddenly.
Yun Xiao looked around and saw that although this was a small town, it felt almost like the Hunyuan Immortal Ruins. It was a 'Heaven and Earth Divine Boat' suspended in the Great Dao Immortal Source.
"There are probably countless such smallest cities in the heaven."
Buzz!
Their six Sitian sword boats landed in front of the city gate.
I saw that the city gate consisted of three stone pillars, two vertical and one horizontal. It was very impressive and was indeed suitable for hanging corpses.
But by this time, the city gate had already been cleared.
If the Forbidden Immortal is coming, we must not let the body hang any longer.
Bang bang!
The doors of their sword boats opened at the same time, and the six of them, wearing Suan Ni forbidden armor, looked like tigers and tigers, stepped out of the sword boats.
Next to Yun Xiao, the girl named Sun Xiaoqi glanced at him and asked weakly: "Lu Yao, it's your first time to investigate a case as a forbidden immortal. How does it feel? Are you nervous?"
Yun Xiao glanced at the city gate and said seriously: "I just want to capture the real murderer as soon as possible and defend the rules of heaven."
"You have such a sense of mission?" Sun Xiaoqi stuck out her tongue.
"Of course, it's also to get merit, get rewards, and practice immortal magic." Yun Xiao said honestly.
"Yeah, this is called the best of both worlds." Sun Xiaoqi said.
"Stop talking and follow!" Zhao Cheng suddenly turned around and glared at them both.
Sun Xiaoqi was startled for a moment and quickly lowered her head, not daring to approach Yun Xiao anymore.
In front, the greeters from Sangju City have already come forward respectfully. There are a dozen people in total, all of whom are true immortals.
Judging from their attire, they should all be top figures in this small town.
The leader among them is a woman. She is wearing a large floral robe, embroidered with mulberry trees and chrysanthemums. She is very beautiful, with a high nose, curved eyes, her hair is pulled up high, and her hairpin shines with stars.
Look clean, dignified and decent.
However, it can still be seen that her figure under the floral robe is excellent.
"Lu Qian leads the various minor immortals in Sangju City to greet Young Master Changfeng and all the Forbidden Immortals." The woman in the flower robe bowed respectfully and saluted.
The others followed suit and bowed even lower.
"Lord City Magistrate, there is no need to be polite." Lu Changfeng said seriously.
The so-called "City Order" is the head of this small town, responsible for the city's administration, people's livelihood, public security and other important matters. Its rank is the same as the Forbidden Rank and the Forbidden Immortal, and they are all ninth-rank Immortal Officials in Heaven.
As for the small officials and immortals under the city order, they are all considered to be inferior immortal officials. They have immortal salary, but it is difficult to be promoted.
"The city magistrate of Sangju City, whose surname is Lu, is called Young Master Lu Changfeng?" Yun Xiao stood at the back and remembered this.
When I arrived at Sangju City, I found out that the ninth-grade forbidden immortal was also a high official here, on the same level as the city order!
The city magistrate named Lu Qian showed a guilty look on his face and said: "Such evil things have happened in Sangju City under my rule. We are really ashamed to have troubled all the Forbidden Immortals to come all the way."
"Stop talking nonsense, get the files. The most important thing is to seize the time to eliminate evil for the people." Lu Changfeng said.
"Yes, yes." Lu Qian's posture was very low, and she trotted over quickly and presented a scroll to Lu Changfeng with both hands.
Lu Changfeng took the file, opened it, glanced at it, handed it to Yun Xiao, and said: "You will be responsible for the investigation. I will first understand the whole story with Lord Cheng Ling and hand over the case."
Yun Xiao took the file and read it up and down without saying anything.
Lu Qian quickly called out to an old man in gray and said, "Mo Ya, take these Forbidden Immortals to do an autopsy first."
The old man named Mo Ya hunched over, bowed his head, walked in small steps to Yun Xiao, and said: "Master Forbidden Immortal, please."
As a result, Yun Xiao and the five-member team parted ways with Lu Changfeng.
Lu Changfeng is responsible for handing over and coordinating the overall situation, while Yun Xiao and the others are responsible for front-line errands.
This arrangement is normal.
Lu Changfeng is expected to be the commander of the Forbidden Immortals soon, so he must not show his face outside and run around.
Yun Xiao's group of five and the old man in gray, Mo Ya, entered Sangju City first.
In Sangju City, people heard about the arrival of the Forbidden Immortal in Sifei City and went out to pay their respects.
"Mother! Mother, look, it's the Forbidden Immortal!"
"What a handsome Suan Ni forbidden armor! What a majestic and heroic figure!"
"The man is brave, the woman is sassy!"
"Dad, I want to be a forbidden immortal when I grow up!"
At least in the eyes of the public, the Forbidden Immortal in Heaven seems to have a good image, and is even the dream of children.
"As soon as Lord Forbidden Immortal arrives, the cruel and ruthless murderer will definitely be found out!"
Hanging the body on the city gate where people come and go will naturally make a scene known to everyone.
In the expectant eyes of the people of Sangju City, five forbidden immortals passed through the street.
"The level of the people in this small town in the Great Dao Fairyland is not much higher than that in the Hunyuan Fairy Market. They are mainly Yin Yang Immortals, and there are also quite a few Holy Wheel Realms and Five Disaster Realms. There are probably more than a dozen True Immortals in total." Yun Xiao glanced at them.
Scan and draw conclusions.
Soon, they arrived at a government palace called "Fu Ya".
"Nine corpses are here, five forbidden immortals, please." The old man in gray, Mo Ya, led them to a cold morgue, his head lowered.
His eyes and face are almost invisible.
"Open the door." Zhao Cheng had already reached the front of the road.
Lu Changfeng is not here. As the only Forbidden Immortal who has become a regular member, he seems to have taken over the command with his aura.
"yes!"
Mo Ya seemed a little afraid of Zhao Cheng and quickly opened the door.
The smell of putrid corpses immediately came from the door.
Everyone frowned and immediately covered their noses.
Gu Yuan's pretty face tightened and she said, "You guys go in, I'll look around."
"No." Zhao Cheng gave her a cold look, "As a forbidden immortal, you have to be responsible for the common people."
Gu Yuan rolled her eyes and could only follow in.
Yun Xiao also stepped into it and saw a long platform in the room. On the long platform were nine corpses, each covered with white cloth.
As soon as Zhao Cheng came in, he entered the state.
He did not read the file, but stood directly next to a corpse and asked: "Time and place of death."
Mo Ya quickly lowered his head and said: "These nine people died three nights respectively, three people died each night, and then they were all hung on the city gate. As for where they died, I don't know yet."
"Are they last night, the night before, and the night before?" Zhao Cheng asked.
"right."
On the eve of the night, Yun Xiao was still in the Heavenly Star Realm, so he knew that the murder itself had nothing to do with him.
After Zhao Cheng finished asking, he waved his hand and lifted off all the white cloth on the deceased.
He glanced at the dead bodies, folded his arms and asked: "The cause of their death was that their eyes were penetrated by swords to the back of their heads?"
"Yes, and then it was hung on the city gate, so there are black marks on the neck." Mo Ya bowed and said.
"It means the murderer is a swordsman." Chi Yu said next to him.
Sun Xiaoqi bit her lip and said, "Do you know the strength of the murderer?"
Mo Ya turned to her and said: "The deceased's strength was at the highest level of 'Early True Immortal', and it can be inferred that the murderer was at the worst at the middle stage of True Immortal."
After saying this, Chi Yu, Gu Yuan and Sun Xiaoqi all looked serious, because the three of them were in the middle stage of True Immortal.
Zhao Cheng was in the late stage of True Immortal, so he was not afraid at all, but sneered: "It is precisely because the murderer is so powerful that you didn't catch him when he went to hang the body at the city gate on the third night?"
Mo Ya lowered his head and said with shame, "Yes, our government sent hundreds of people to ambush at the city gate last night, but we couldn't catch the murderer, and we didn't even see his shadow clearly."
Having said this, he respectfully added: "That's why we asked Si Tianfu for help to prevent this murderer from killing three people every night for fun."
After Zhao Cheng heard this, he touched his chin and thought for a while.
After a while, he raised his eyebrows and said, "How many people are there in Sangju City who are above the middle stage of True Immortality?"
