"good."

Su Qiaoer nodded, her soft and flexible waist twisted into a snake body, and searched in a snake-shaped state.

Chen Mu went to another area to search.

The mountain wind is mixed with a sharp knife-like cut on the face.

In the valley where many thieves once lived, there seemed to be still the fog of cooking and the bloody smell of being wiped out.

Chen Mu looked around.

For some reason, I inexplicably remembered the young master from Longpan Mountain.

Although there is no trace of this Young Master Chen at present, more and more records about Longpan Mountain have appeared recently.

It even made Chen Mu feel that the mastermind behind this may also be related to Long Panshan.

Can Longpan Mountain be revived?

Probably not.

The young master has not had any news for so long, which shows that he is indeed tired of the life of killing and chose to live in seclusion.

"Chen Mu, come here!"

I have to say that the little snake spirit is still very efficient. In less than ten minutes, I found something unusual and hurriedly called Chen Mu over.

Chen Muxun rushed over, but his vision was just an ordinary mountain wall.

He knocked on the tough mountain wall and said speechlessly: "You can't find out the wrong one, can you find any clues?"

Su Qiaoer, who turned into a beautiful girl again, had agile eyes and slightly pursed her bright red lips and said, "What are you lying to do? I smell a trace of blood in this mountain wall."

The smell of blood?

Chen Mu was stunned, looking at the dark and cold mountain walls, his eyes flashing.

He raised his arm and placed his palm on the mountain wall, pushed it hard, but the mountain wall did not move at all. After using all his strength again, he still couldn't break it.

However, Chen Mu vaguely saw some complicated runes flashing on the mountain wall.

This is a door.

Chen Mu has confirmed it.

However, this door was sealed by a special restriction and could not be forced to be dug. It can only be opened with specific objects.

Su Qiaoer looked around again, shook her head and said, "There is only this entrance."

"I still have a way to get in if others can't do it."

A flash of light flashed in Chen Mu's eyes.

He signaled Su Qiaoer to turn back into the form of a snake, put it in his arms, and then released some things from outside the sky to adhere to the stone gate.

Chen Mu closed his eyes, and as his thoughts fluctuated, a chill suddenly came around his body.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a deep corridor.

Lighting beads are inlaid on both sides of the corridor.

In addition, there are flints everywhere, planted densely in the stone wall like seeds.

It is obvious that this is a secret passage dug by hand.

And generally speaking, it feels very similar to the mountain road I passed with Shao Siming before.

However, compared to the old and invalid cave path, the secret passage in front of him is undoubtedly much new, and footprints can obviously be seen on the ground.

Chen Mu took out the little snake spirit from his arms and said with a smug smile: "Although my space transfer technique can only move in a small range at present, it is enough to enter a secret passage."

"Chen Mu, you are so awesome."

The little girl who has recovered her body has a brighter and her white and greasy face is full of admiration.

"You are still awesome."

Chen Mu smiled and pinched the other person's Qiong Nose, and led the girl to slowly explore the depths of the corridor.

About twenty minutes later, the same empty hall was displayed in front of the two. The only difference was that there was no statue of gods or ponds for refining insects in this mountain hall, and only a small lake.

The lake is not clear and a little turbid. You can see four stone pillars covered with spiritual patterns rising on the water.

"Where is this? Is it just a meeting place?"

After inspecting the surroundings for several times without any abnormalities, Chen Mu locked his eyes in the lake.

Plop!

Chen Mu jumped into the lake, and Su Qiaoer also jumped down.

Strangely, the lake water is not as cold as imagined, but contains a hint of warmth.

After reaching the bottom of the lake, I found that the water depth was only three meters high, which felt like a man-made lake.

There are no plants like algae at the bottom of the lake.

Chen Mu swam a few times at the bottom of the lake and saw only a circle of red stones and four nailed stone pillars below. There was nothing else apart.

After confirming that no clue was found, Chen Mu took Su Qiaoer to the ashore.

"There must be a reason why Butler Zhao came here. What's strange is what that guy did and where are you going now."

Using spiritual energy to dry the wet clothes, Chen Mu sat on the stone next to him to think.

Su Qiaoer sat obediently with her legs together, without making any noise to bother him.

Perhaps because I was bored after waiting for too long, I gently placed my head on the man's legs and looked at the turbid lake surface.

The beautiful snow face is steaming with a little light glow, which is indescribable.

After looking at it for a while, the girl turned her head and was about to look at Chen Mu's cheek.

But the moment she turned her head, her eyes couldn't help but look at the top of the hall, then screamed in shock, and sat up in fear.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Mu looked at the panicked little girl in confusion.

The girl pointed at the top of her head with pale cheeks: "Above............"

Chen Mu looked up and saw a corpse nailed to the top of the mountain hall. The corpse's eyes were still open, as if he was staring at them.

At this moment, even Chen Mu felt cold on his back and he hugged the little girl and took a few steps back.

When he observed carefully, he found that the corpse turned out to be the Lord of the Heavenly Lord!

That's right!

It is the Lord of the High Hall who has been missing for several days!

The master of Nanfeng Dungao, who once entered the capital with Murong Ping to save Ji Wuming, and later had a good relationship with him!

"I thought he had escaped after he noticed his tracks were exposed, but he didn't expect to die."

Chen Mu couldn't tell what it felt like.

Through the previous clues, we can know that Gaotanzhu and Ma Luozi's daughter Shi Zhuxiang are in the same group.

Last time, this guy seemed to have cheated him and Yun Zhiyue in the temple.

I never thought the body would appear here.

Chen Mu signaled Su Qiaoer to retreat aside, relying on things outside the sky to stick to the corpse on the top of the cave, and observe carefully.

Judging from the situation of the corpse, it has been dead for six or seven days.

However, a layer of medicine powder ferries around the corpse, which makes the corpse not rot so fast.

"I died after being crushed by someone's throat."

Chen Mu said lightly. "It seems that he was killed head-on and deliberately nailed the corpse here, which means he is deliberately humiliated."

Who killed the Lord of the Great Hall?

Butler Zhao?

Chen Mu tentatively searched the other party's clothes, but unfortunately there was nothing.

"If the Lord Gao is in the same group as the headless bride, the assassination of the Lord Gao is also his part. It's just why he promised to go to the capital with Miss Murong to save Ji Wuming? Could it be that--"

Chen Mu's eyes suddenly lit up, and there was a bold guess in his heart.

hostage?

Yes, I probably want to use Murong Ping as a hostage!

Judging from the resume of the Lord Gao at the Tiandihui, he is also an old employee, but in the end he only got to the Lord.

He should have been moved by Cha Zhuxiang with his interests and cooperated with him.

Because judging from his prestige and achievements in Nanfeng Divine, if the leader of Murong dies, he will most likely have a chance to be the next leader.

Moreover, the day when Murong's helm was killed was obviously arranged in advance.
