Chapter 145 Killed in 1 shot
Everyone looked at this scene in shock. No one expected to see such a bloody scene.
Chen Xiu spotted two Cang Qiong Mountain disciples who came to report at the door and quickly went forward to check.
"He's still breathing, help come!"
The disciples of Cangqiong Mountain rushed over, quickly lifted the man up, checked his injuries, and stuffed a few pills into their mouths.
Fairy Yueyao frowned and stepped forward: "I am good at medicine, let me take a look."
Several disciples looked at Chen Xiu, and after receiving the signal, they made way.
Fairy Yueyao stepped forward and carefully examined the two of them, then took out silver needles and quickly inserted a few needles into the acupuncture points.
Not long after, the two opened their eyes. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and came forward.
Chen Xiu approached with concern, "Are you feeling any discomfort? Who attacked you?"
The two disciples were obviously still a little weak. After being helped to sit up, they coughed twice. Seeing so many people surrounding them, confusion appeared in their eyes.
"Big Brother, what happened? What happened to us?"
Gong Bowen frowned and stepped forward: "Aren't you here to look for the two masters? Did you see who committed the crime here?"
The two disciples then discovered two bodies lying on the ground and trembled in fear.
"I don't know, I don't know anything."
"We were ordered to find the two masters to gather at the square. We knocked on the door for a long time but no one responded, so we just pushed the door open, and then..."
"Then I don't know anything. Did something happen to the two masters?"
Everyone present kept their eyes on the two of them, wanting to see if they were lying.
But it was obvious that there was nothing wrong with the two of them emotionally, and they really didn't understand anything.
Chen Xiu waved at several disciples, signaling them to take the people away for treatment.
Master Wuxin of Hanshan Temple came over with a few people after examining the bodies of the two masters.
"The two masters must have had a fight with the thieves before they died, and they were stabbed through the heart."
"I suspect that the two leaders must know the murderer."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
"Master Wuxin, you can't say such things carelessly!"
"That's right. If they knew each other, why would they fight? They would definitely be killed in one blow. This is common sense."
Master Wuxin listened to them patiently before speaking slowly.
"The killer is obviously stronger than the two of them, which is why he caused a fatal wound through the heart, but there are no other scars on his body."
"Moreover, you can all go and check it out. The surprise in the eyes of the two masters can also prove this point well."
It was difficult for everyone to accept this statement for a moment and they all went to check it out, but the fact was just as Master Wuxin said, and it was easy to see the shock on the faces of the two men.
For a moment, everyone's eyes involuntarily wandered around the scene.
The two masters knew those who had the power to kill them with one blow and they were all at the scene, which meant that the murderer was among them.
But everyone present was an old fox, and no flaws could be seen on anyone's face.
Gong Bowen was very frightened, but he didn't dare to reveal any emotion at this time.
He felt that the murderer clearly knew the identities of the two men, and he killed them this time, perhaps to lure him out!
But he couldn't talk about this matter at all, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.
He even suspected that this incident was directed and acted by the people of Cangqiong Mountain, but why did Xu Yan die?
He suppressed his uneasiness and said, "If there was a fight, wouldn't anyone around here hear it?"
"Could anyone have seen the murderer come to their yard?"
Xu Zhuo glanced at him and said, "The houses around here have been specially vacated for you. Has anyone found anything?"
Everyone shook their heads, especially those who lived nearby, who hurriedly expressed their opinions in panic.
"We really don't know anything. Besides, since the murderer dared to commit the crime, he must be confident that we won't find him."
"That's right. The other party must have made sufficient preparations to dare to be so reckless."
Xu Zhuo pinched his brows in pain, feeling extremely annoyed, especially when he heard a group of people making noise here, which made him feel even worse.
"Stop arguing!"
With his angry shout, the pressure of the Mahayana period dissipated. Except for Master Wuxin, Fairy Yueyao and Gong Bowen, everyone subconsciously took a few steps back and fell silent.
They looked at Xu Zhuo with fear on their faces. It was the first time they felt Xu Zhuo's strength at such a close distance.
Seeing that they had quieted down, Xu Zhuo swept his sharp eyes among the crowd.
"Everyone, this matter is really too bad."
"In a short period of time, multiple murders occurred in succession. The murderer is so cruel and crazy that he simply doesn't take my Cangqiong Mountain seriously."
"My Cang Qiong Mountain formation has not been activated yet. The murderer must still be in Cang Qiong Mountain. I will send people to search the entire Cang Qiong Mountain, including your residences. I hope you will all follow me to the square and wait quietly."
Xu Zhuo's words were very impolite. Everyone present was a big shot in the world of cultivation. Not only were they suspected, but their homes were also searched.
They wanted to refute, but due to Xu Zhuo's pressure, they all kept their mouths shut. No one spoke.
Are you kidding? Although they didn't keep any confidential documents in their residence, they still had some things. How could they allow Cangqiongshan to see them?
Shangguan Cheng is still immersed in fear. You know, he is the weakest among this group of people. If the murderer wants to kill him, it will be too easy.
But Xu Zhuo's request to search his residence quickly brought him to his senses. There were some things in his room that could not be seen by others.
But he waited for a long time and no one spoke up to object, so he couldn't help but jump out.
"I disagree. What qualifications do you have to search the Cangqiong Mountain?"
"The person died in your Cangqiong Mountain. Maybe you are the ones crying thief and trying to deliberately frame us."
"Besides, I am only in the Nascent Soul stage. I don't have the strength to kill anyone."
Xu Zhuo seemed to be amused by him, "Shangguan Cheng, why would we in Cangqiong Mountain do this? And the elders of our Cangqiong Mountain also died."
"We have no grudges against the two masters. Isn't the accusation you made a little too ridiculous?"
After saying that, he ignored her and obviously didn't take him seriously.
Instead, he looked at the silent crowd and said, "Everyone, do you also think that I am the one crying thief?"
Master Wuxin glanced at him and lowered his eyelids, "Master Xu, you are joking. You can check the address of my residence in Hanshan Temple as you like."
Originally, everyone was relieved when they saw Shangguan Cheng jump out, thinking that if they didn't express their opinions, the matter might be swept under the rug.
But I didn't expect that Master Wuxin would agree immediately!
