Brother Xie, he is too popular. What should I do?

Chapter 231 That person

In the soundproof barrier, Venerable Youyue was talking to Taoist Chen.

After the close-up of Qin Yu appeared, Venerable Youyue raised the soundproof barrier.

She thought that Chen Laodao would have something to ask, but she didn't expect to receive any questions from Chen Laodao.

Looking down, I saw that Taoist Chen in the water mirror was asleep.

No wonder there's nothing to ask.

After Venerable Youyue woke up Taoist Chen in the water mirror, the two of them silently watched the trial process of the case presided over by Sang Qing.

After seeing Xie Yunhe's reasoning that the night watchman's identity might have been used by the murderer, Venerable Youyue breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that in the end, the title of murderer in this case will not fall on Xie Yunhe's head.

Of course, it probably won’t fall on Qin Yu’s head.

"It must have been done by that kid Qin Yu, who then created a bunch of clues to muddy the waters."

Venerable Youyue spoke quietly.

"Fortunately, my disciple is smart, otherwise he would have been fooled by the illusion."

Once he is identified as the murderer, according to the laws of Gulan County in the illusion, he will be executed at noon.

Venerable Youyue felt that it was better not to trust Jing Ling's conscience too much, and the execution at noon should be true.

Every illusion has specific rules, and perhaps this is the rule in this illusion.

You must not do anything that violates the law, or at least not let anyone know that you have done it.

Otherwise, you may die in the illusion.

After Venerable Youyue finished speaking, he waited for a while.

There was no response to what she said.

Venerable Youyue lowered his eyes, looked at Taoist Chen who was almost falling asleep again in the water mirror, and spoke again to wake him up.

"Master Chen, wake up!"

Hearing someone calling him, Chen Laodao opened his eyes. He rubbed his face and tried to force himself to cheer up.

"In just one hour, you fell asleep four or five times. It doesn't look like nothing happened."

Venerable Youyue, who initially thought the problem was not serious, now had a serious expression.

This is not unusual.

It doesn't seem like the sleepiness is caused by Chen Laodao's talent.

"I'll go find a doctor. Let me see the light curtain... Is this her child?"

Taoist Chen began to talk about other things and abruptly changed the subject.

He had been having a bad feeling these days, so he overdrew another fifty years of his life to do divination.

That's why he looks a little exhausted now, but Chen Laodao didn't want to tell Venerable Youyue the reason, so as to avoid making his good friend worry about him.

But why couldn't he understand the result of divination?

——Trouble arises within the family, and divine soldiers descend from heaven.

Taoist Chen quietly looked up at the sky outside.

Blue sky and white clouds, a harmonious scene. Where did the divine soldiers from heaven come from?

The results that can be obtained from divination are all like this. For example, Chen Laodao is already quite good and can get specific written instructions.

A half-baked person like Chen Qixing can only get a good or bad result.

As for the divination about internal strife...

After getting the result, Taoist Chen searched all the hills in Feixing Valley, but found nothing wrong and there were only a few monsters.

On the bright side, this should be a good result.

Chen Laodao's abrupt technique of changing the subject is effective.

Venerable Youyue's gaze was fixed on the light curtain again.

But this time, he didn't look at Xie Yunhe, but at Qin Yu who was showing an aggrieved expression to Xie Yunhe.

Many complex emotions flashed in her eyes, including nostalgia, hatred, and sighs...

"She broke her promise."

Venerable Youyue said in a deep voice.

Taoist Chen certainly knew what Venerable Youyue meant. He even preserved the scene from that year with a photo stone.

And this statement is equivalent to tacitly confirming his previous statement.

"I've never met him before, but now I see he really does look a lot like his mother..."

Taoist Chen knew that it would be useless for him to say anything now, and he probably couldn't resolve the depression in Qiuyue's heart.

It would be better to talk about Qin Yu.

His gaze fell on the light curtain and saw Qin Yu's aggrieved look. He was about to say something, but paused strangely.

"...This shameless behavior probably has nothing to do with his mother."

Taoist Chen saw Chen Qixing pulling Xie Yunhe's sleeve and turning him in another direction.

I secretly cheered in my heart.

He is indeed a good disciple who has read "Eighteen Styles of Palace Fighting" thoroughly. It is effortless for him to deal with a guy like Qin Yu who has only mediocre kung fu.

Taoist Chen also discovered that Chen Qixing seemed to be able to see people's expressions in the illusion.

He guessed that one of Chen Qixing's wishes was to have eyes that could see normally, and thinking of this, Chen Laodao couldn't help feeling a little sad.

It was useless of him, he did not find any relevant information.

I don’t know which family’s bloodline Qixing inherits. If we can find the corresponding bloodline, we should be able to help Qixing recover to normal as soon as possible.

Taoist Chen's eyes swept across the other talented disciples in the light curtain. It would be great if he could be like them, open and honest, without being afraid of exposing his abnormalities in front of others.

His eyes swept over Qin Yu and paused.

Thinking about it carefully, Qin Yu is that man's son, and that engagement back then...

Oh, this, this, this... Taoist Chen was so anxious that he was sweating.

He looked at Venerable Youyue carefully and found that she had a face full of bitterness and hatred. She probably didn't think about these things at all. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

That's right, even if you want to fulfill this promise, the person should come and say it himself.

Qin Yu probably has no part in this matter of the fiancée.

Venerable Youyue was still immersed in his own emotions.

"I told her not to rush into a Taoist couple, but now look at her, she just won't listen..."

Seeing the son of an old friend, it was impossible for Venerable Youyue to say that his feelings were not complicated.

Over the years, perhaps it was out of anger, or perhaps it was for other reasons.

On weekdays, when she met Qin Yu in the sect, she treated him as air and did not give him a good face.

This is of course normal. Who among the Venerables in the Spirit Transformation Stage is easy to talk to and approach?

Originally, Xiaoyao Jianzun wanted to bring Qin Yu over to Venerable Youyue from time to time so that he could recognize him, but later he gave up the idea.

Venerable Youyue and Qin Yu are not familiar with each other.

As long as Qin Yu is still alive, Venerable Youyue will not pay too much attention to him.

After all, Qin Yu has a master, senior brothers, and suitors, and he has good talent himself, so why would he need Venerable Youyue?

However, occasionally when she saw Qin Yu practicing sword... she would think of the girl who was also practicing sword.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got, and in the end, I just turned a blind eye.

Venerable Youyue closed his eyes. The past cannot be recalled. No matter how close they were in the past, they are just strangers now.

Throw away this useless thought.

Her eyes fell on the water mirror beside her.

At this time, Taoist Chen was peeking at the light curtain from inside.

Venerable Youyue felt emotional, Taoist Chen is still the same as he was back then.

Some people will not fade away.

Venerable Youyue was about to look away, but her eyes accidentally swept across a place and her gaze suddenly stopped.

She looked at the person in the water mirror and spoke in surprise and doubt.

"Master Chen, your forehead..."

……

In the Qin Mansion, the small trial has ended.

The black-clad detectives first went to deal with the mess left behind by Master Qin.

Some people went to interrogate the doctor group, and some went to rescue the trapped children.

People from all walks of life also joined in to contribute, and the common people all came to watch the fun.

Only some black-clad constables were left in the study to guard it, and Xie Yunhe and others were temporarily allowed to move around.

When Xie Yunhe arrived at the door of the study, he saw Qin Yu standing in the yard.

The afternoon sun shone into the yard, reflecting off the light on his face, which was eye-catching.

Of course, Xie Yunhe was the only one who thought so.

Others saw a handsome man who was unparalleled in the sunlight.

"Brother Yun, I have something to tell you."

Qin Yu looked towards Xie Yunhe.

Xie Yunhe nodded. He also had something to say to Qin Yu.

"What? Can I hear it?"

Li Ye walked over and looked at the two of them suspiciously.

"No, those are some important words about my life. I can't tell anyone casually."

Qin Yu spoke seriously.

"Oh, then Brother He, please come back soon. I'll be waiting for you in your yard. I also want to go back and see the lovebird eggs."

Li Ye was persuaded.

Although Qin Yu had offended him not long ago, he had already said that he wanted to discuss important matters with Brother Ahe alone, so he decided not to disturb him.

Ling Jiaojiao glanced at Li Ye speechlessly.

He felt that the other person's brain was full of nonsense. Qin Yu meant to discuss their marriage with Xie Yunhe, but this person couldn't hear it?

but……

Ling Jiaojiao looked at Xie Yunhe who was standing beside her.

Xie Yunhe also seemed to have something to say to Qin Yu.

No one stopped them, so Xie Yunhe and Qin Yu walked to a small path on the side.

"Brother Yun..."

Qin Yu spoke first.

"Wait, don't call me Brother Yun. Now that Master Qin is dead, there's no need for you to continue acting."

Xie Yunhe stopped the other party from using that slightly cheesy name with a headache.

Qin Yu blinked, looking innocent.

"But I think it's very intimate..."

Xie Yunhe frowned and looked at Qin Yu.

"Don't talk nonsense. You killed Master Qin, didn't you? Why...why did you do this?"

Hearing this, Qin Yu retracted his playful smile and his smile disappeared.

Just like the ripples on the lake spread out by the wind, when the wind stops, the lake returns to its original calmness.

His expression faded and he said:

"To eliminate harm to the people, shouldn't Master Qin be killed?"

"For his own selfish desires, he used the blood and flesh of his children to make elixirs, and he also exterminated countless families and plundered the people's wealth. On the surface, he appears to be a decent person, but in reality, he is a rotten person."

He didn't know if it was Xie Yunhe's illusion, but he always felt that Qin Yu was talking about Master Qin, but also about someone else.

This is a son's assessment of his father. Isn't it too cold and callous?

Xie Yunhe looked at Qin Yu in confusion.

Perhaps noticing Xie Yunhe's gaze, Qin Yu restrained a little the indifference that unconsciously appeared when he spoke of Master Qin.

And began to consciously change the subject.

Qin Yu shrugged and said with regret in his tone:

"Besides...it can't be said that I killed him."

Qin Yu's self-explanation about the real murderer really attracted Xie Yunhe's attention.

His attention immediately jumped from why Qin Yu did this to who did it.

Qin Yu is not the murderer? How is this possible?

Xie Yunhe stopped and turned to look at Qin Yu.

"How to say?"

Qin Yu considered his words carefully.

"I just tampered with Master Qin's blood medicine a little bit... If he doesn't take the blood medicine again in a short time, then nothing will happen..."

"Who knew he wanted to improve his strength before the martial arts conference... The blood medicine itself is blood-toxic. I just accelerated the process a little..."

"How can you say I killed him?"

Qin Yu concluded very seriously.

Xie Yunhe stared at the ball of holy light. He couldn't see Qin Yu's expression, but from what he said, he knew that he really felt that way.

You still feel you are innocent, right?

Veins popped out on Xie Yunhe's head.

He looked at Qin Yu, who was feeling righteous, with a dim gaze.

Isn't this just adding fuel to the fire?

It’s not unfair to say that you are the murderer.

However, this also solved a doubt in Xie Yunhe's mind.

Even with Senior Brother Chu's chicken soup, how did Qin Yu kill Master Qin?

I think Qin Yu must have taken advantage of the blood medicine that Master Qin took. He killed Master Qin because the blood medicine would accumulate blood poison if taken continuously.

The coroner said at the time that Mr. Qin did not die from a sword wound, but from excessive blood loss.

In addition, the blood coagulation condition in Mr. Qin's body is indeed consistent with Qin Yu's statement.

Qin Yu touched his chin and said:

"When I went to the study, Master Qin fainted. I was shocked. I just found out that he fainted from the chicken soup poisoning."

"But since the opportunity is fleeting, I reluctantly arranged the scene."

Qin Yu glossed over the process of his crime in a casual manner.

Xie Yunhe: ...

Is the case of Mr. Qin, who has confused everyone, what you call a reluctant arrangement of the scene?

"Brother Yun, let's not talk about this for now. I have something important to say..."

"...I already told you not to call me Brother Yun."

"Okay, Brother Yun, what I want to ask is, do you think this world is a little strange?"

Hearing Qin Yu's words, Xie Yunhe's heart moved.

What Qin Yu said was exactly what he had been feeling these days. He always felt that something was wrong with this world.

"for example?"

Xie Yunhe asked back curiously.

He thought Qin Yu would say something like time passed too quickly or the memories in his mind were strange, because that was also his own feeling.

Last night, Xie Yunhe counted specifically before going to bed.

Not long after he lay down on the bed, the sun rose outside. This was obviously abnormal. Xie Yunhe was very sure that he was not asleep.

He had the same feeling when he was walking in Gulan County before.

Time seems to pass very quickly. It is morning now and it will be noon in a short while.

It's as if an invisible hand is adjusting the flow of time.

But I didn't expect Qin Yu's reason to be...
