"Then why did Yue Ling move Brother Mo Kang's body here? Shouldn't it be placed in a less conspicuous place? This will make it more difficult for the elders who come to rescue to discover it, so that Yue Ling's original plan can be carried out."
Yue Moran looked at the corpse on the ground and expressed her doubts.
"It was not moved by Yue Ling. Look over there. There is still a lot of blood stains under the broken frame. Presumably, that is where the corpse originally was. Because it has been hanging for too long, the blood on the corpse
It dripped on the ground, and that's how the blood existed."
"You mean, Senior Sister Ying? It was Senior Sister who put Senior Brother Mo Kang's body here? Junior Brother Chen, what else did you find?"
"If I guessed correctly, it should be like this." Yue Mochen thought for a while and continued: "After Senior Sister Ying broke up with you, she realized the problem we just discussed, so she went back to search nearby, and then
Then I discovered that Senior Brother Mo Kang had entered the palace at the same time. Senior Sister Ying probably couldn't bear to see Senior Brother Mo Kang's body hanging on the tree branch, so she took it down and put it here."
Yue Mochen did not rush to answer Yue Moran's last question. Instead, as if he was thinking about something, he said again: "Look, the clothes on the body have obviously been sorted. It must be that Senior Sister Ying saw her classmates.
People were killed, but they didn’t have storage equipment and couldn’t take away the body like I did, so I used this method to show respect for the deceased. If we weren’t in a hurry, senior sister would have buried this senior brother Mo Kang.”
As Yue Mochen said this, he put Yue Mokang's body into the ring's space.
"Then little junior brother, have you discovered the clues left by senior sister?" Yue Moran asked hurriedly.
"It's better than nothing, I have a clue, but I'm not sure." Yue Mochen's originally bright eyes flashed with helplessness.
Under Yue Moran's anxious gaze, he continued to speak: "It's just that there are no other clues now, so I can only place a bet on whether my guess is right or not."
Yue Mochen looked at the ground, with a somewhat anxious look on his face, and said with a slight frown: "Senior sister, look, there are faint traces of blood on the ground. It should be from the body of Senior Brother Mo Kang that Senior Sister Ying brought here.
It comes down from the top, but have you ever thought about why Senior Sister Ying brought him here?"
"Didn't you say that senior sister couldn't bear to see senior brother Mo Kang's body hanging on the tree? So she took it down." Yue Moran said doubtfully.
"Yes, but although the distance between the two places is not far, why didn't Senior Sister Ying just put Senior Brother Mo Kang under the broken tree?" Yue Mochen asked in return.
"Yes, why?" Yue Moran was obviously very confused.
"Senior sister, have you noticed that although these two places are not far apart, the trees growing in them are completely different?"
"Yes, the trees here are relatively thicker and taller. The trees over there are thin in comparison, but what does this have to do with the problem we are talking about?"
Yue Mochen took out the straight-spine sword and without using the spiritual energy in his body, he just slashed it hard on the ground. A large piece of turf was lifted up, revealing dark black soil.
"Senior sister, look at the soil here. What's the difference between the soil here and the soil over there?"
Yue Moran took a closer look and saw that under the mess not far away, some yellow soil was stirred up due to the battle. She couldn't help but think of an unwritten rule in Qianyue Palace.
There is an unwritten rule in the palace that any disciple who dies during training should be buried on the spot when a fellow disciple encounters him.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Every time I practice in the palace, almost all disciples die. The journey of training is so uneven, but everyone still flocks to it. Why is it so hard?
Looking at Yue Moran's expression, Yue Mochen knew that the other party had been able to catch up with his thoughts, but still failed to understand what he meant, so he continued.
"Due to the unwritten rule in the palace, if an elder dies outside, his body will be recovered and placed in Qianyue Cemetery. However, the deceased disciple does not have this honor and can only be buried on the spot by his fellow disciples or reduced to
For animal food. Therefore, Senior Sister Ying’s original intention was to bury Senior Brother Mo Kang’s body, and the reason for placing it here is that the soil in this location is black soil, which is relatively loose, making it easier to dig a hole."
"So, Senior Sister brought the body here? We planned to bury Senior Brother Mo Kang, but why did we see..."
"This is the clue I was talking about. Since senior sister made the plan to bury this senior brother, why did she leave before completing it? The only explanation is that she discovered something before digging a hole for senior brother, so she didn't have time to bury it.
He buried it and gave chase."
Yue Mochen paused, looked at the broken branches not far away, then looked at the crown of the big tree next to him, and said in a deep voice: "After all, protecting a living brother is better than burying a dead one."
After Yue Mochen finished speaking, he handed the red moon hanging on his body to Yue Moran, and jumped onto the big tree nearby. Then, like a monkey, he quickly climbed to the top of the tree.
Under the cover of the woods, it was impossible for Yue Mochen to see the traces of the battle on the ground, but he still saw the scene he wanted to see!
Yue Mochen stood at the top of the tree. After looking around carefully for a week, the scene in front of him confirmed his previous guess in his heart.
Yue Moying's cultivation level is at the peak of a fighter, and with her hearing, she can probably hear sounds half a mile away.
Due to the special circumstances in the forest, too many trees will have a great impact on the propagation of sound. Sound can only travel half the distance in ordinary places. In other words, in this deep moon forest,
The other party can hear movement within a radius of a hundred feet at most.
At this time, Yue Mochen looked around and found something unusual within a hundred feet.
He stood on a tree. Due to the obstruction of the leaves, he could only see the crowns of the surrounding trees. However, he suddenly discovered that except not far away, there was a small vacuum in the crown of the tree caused by Brother Mo Kang's previous battle.
Outside, to the northwest of him, about a hundred feet away, there was a vacuum in the tree crown.
If there are no trees growing in that area, the only explanation is that the trees there are broken. And in this lush forest, it is very rare to have a vacuum where no trees grow.
Yue Mochen is willing to believe that Yue Moying, a peak fighter, created the vacuum during the battle.
Seeing this, he slid down and jumped in front of Yue Moran.
"Go northwest, about a hundred feet away, there are traces of a battle."
