God catches no trace

Chapter 68

Chapter 13: Holes
Sang Wuhen was relieved immediately.

Because seeing the word on the wooden block, the word is the key.

From it traces the depth like a knife carves.

The content above is really shocking: "Darcissus Cave contains a shocking secret, Cheng Sanjiu's unique book."

"Cheng Sanjiu?" Shui Sheng muttered to himself and suddenly shouted: "Brother Wuhen, these are the last words of the leader of the Xuanmen Sect."

Sang Wuhen's face turned serious, and he nodded.

Not to mention any shocking secrets, just mentioning the name of the person who wrote it, it is enough to make people unexpected that the wooden box turned out to be something left by Cheng Sanjiu before his death.

In other words, the sect master that Mu Rou had been chasing for five years had already died, in the hut in Wuling Mountain.

Sang Wuhen turned the wooden block over to look again, but found nothing else.

"Brother Wuhen, there are also words on the brocade cloth."

Hearing Shui Sheng's reminder, he stretched out the brocade cloth. Indeed, the words on the cloth were written with bloody hands: For me alone, hundreds of souls return, what a pity!
"What does this mean?" Xia Rupiao asked.

Seeing the words, Sang Wuhen's face became even more serious.Returning slowly: "The sentence seems to tell us that hundreds of people died because of him."

"Ah, where is it?"

He didn't answer, but thought: The meaning of the word is obvious: Cheng Sanjiu's lament before dying.

If true, it is a major case that has been sealed for five years.Why is there no record in the library of the Ministry of Justice?Could it be that no one has noticed it until now?
"Brother Wuhen, this, I'm afraid this is a bit...?" Shui Sheng was skeptical.

"It should be determined that it is impossible for a person to scribble before dying."

"Why didn't even a little wind come out for so long?"

"The answer to this question has actually been told to us a long time ago."

Sang Wuhen pointed to the words "Narciss Cave".

Shui Sheng understood that the shocking secret that Cheng Sanjiu was referring to should mean that hundreds of dead bodies were hidden here by the murderer.

"One thing is certain now. After Qin Han got the wooden box by accident, he planned to report the situation to the local government. However, while drinking, he accidentally said it out. It happened that his friend was an insider or accomplice of the case. , that’s why he hired people to hunt him down.”

"Then could his friend be Zhou Xiangfo, the great apprentice of Yuedaomen Daoyifeng?"

"I can't say for the time being, as long as he knows people, it is possible."

"It makes sense. Killing Qin Han can not only silence the case, but also recover the things. It can also prevent him from submitting to the government, and the case will be buried forever."

"Yes."

"It seems that we are going to Narcissus Cave?"

"Sure, but I want to send someone to inform Sister Mu Rou."

"Let my sister go to Wuling Mountain to collect her master's skeleton?"

Sang Wuhen nodded.

"It would be great if my sister came with us in the morning, it would save us a little trouble."

"Who knew such a thing would happen, sister." Xia Rupiao said.

"That's right, who can see the future."

Sang Wuhen smiled when he saw this and stared at Shui Sheng. "You are good at Qinggong. A trip to the wooden house will only take you one day to get back and forth."

Shui Sheng looked at him softly: "Then where will we meet after we come back?"

"Make a mark along the way in Wuling Mountain. When you find the hut, wait for me and Ru Piao."

"Brother Wuhen, do you want me and Sister Mu to go to Wuling Mountain together?"

"Yes, Ru Piao and I will check the situation in Narcissus Cave as soon as possible to see if it is the same as what we guessed."

"Okay, Wu Ling Shan Jian."

.........

Heli Town.

It is located in the middle of Heli Mountain.

The town is not big.

The streets are not wide either.

It is the only connecting line leading to the north and south.

In view of this, the population here is densely populated, there are many merchants, and it is a prosperous scene.

After Sang Wuhen and Xia Rupiao came here, they inquired from many sources and learned from an old man that although the Narcissus Cave is not very far from here, almost no one goes there, because it is in the deepest part of Mount Heli and must be in Start from the small town, otherwise, it is impossible to reach it.

The old man also told them that walking from south to north, there is an unfathomable canyon at the end of the deep mountain, and the Narcissus Cave is in the middle of the rocks in the mountain over there.

According to what the old man said, Sang Wuhen and Xia Rupiao walked slowly from the south to the deep mountains with dense leaves and jagged rocks with dry food and water.

In an unfamiliar environment, if you want to find a certain place, light work is useless, so you have to keep your feet on the ground and explore step by step. Every time they walk a certain distance, they use a knife to carve marks on the trees to avoid getting lost.

In this way, after walking about three or four miles, Xia Rupiao was a little tired in the humid and hot climate.

"Brother Sang, take a rest."

Sang Wuhen looked at the sweat on her face and nodded.

Xia Rupiao took a sip of water, then wiped her face with her sleeve.Said: "I doubt your guess."

"Oh, tell me why."

"The place the old man told must be good. I was wondering, after the murder, could the murderer have hidden so many corpses in a deserted cave?"

"It's not that you have questions. I heard the old man say so. Since I'm here, why not find out what's going on?"

"That's fine." After speaking, he moved lightly and walked forward again.

After about an hour.

They finally reached the cliff of the mountain.

Xia Rupiao looked at it with her eyes, and it was just as the old man said, the depth below was bottomless, which gave people a kind of fear.I looked up and looked around again, only to realize that even though there was the sun, there was still a faint white mist in the places where it didn't shine.

"It's here, we're here." Sang Wuhen pointed with his finger and said. "Ru Piao, look at the other side."

Xia Rupiao followed the direction of his finger and looked.Sure enough, there was a faint hole about ten meters away from where he stood.

"This is?"

"No doubt, the old man said that there are not many stone caves in the whole mountain, even rarer in the deep mountains. However, if you look carefully, it seems that there are some words on the cave." Sang Wuhen may have just seen it, but he hasn't seen it clearly yet. .

Xia Rupiao took a closer look, and really saw the words carved with a knife or a sword, but they didn't paint any color.It's a little unclear to people, but if you look carefully, you can still vaguely identify it.

"Narcissus Cave." She couldn't help shouting, and then said: "There is no wooden bridge, no iron chains, how can we get there? The abyss below is so deep, if you miss it, you will be smashed to pieces."

"Can I still stop you?"

"Is it fun to talk about?" Xia Rupiao smiled.

"I'll go first, you wait a moment."

Sang Wuhen took a deep breath, kicked his feet vigorously, and jumped forward, his body flew towards the opposite hole like an arrow.

When she saw this, she didn't show any weakness and just chased after him.

The two fell into the hole almost at the same time.

Sang Wuhen's feet touched the ground, and he raised his head to look forward. This is a naturally formed hole, which is relatively wide. The stone walls on both sides are extremely rough and uneven. After five or six meters, it is pitch black.

Xia Rupiao lit the candle she carried with her.

Guided by the light, the two walked in slowly.

About ten meters away from the entrance of the cave, it was found that there were deep or shallow sword marks on the stone wall.

"Brother Sang, look at the ground. "

He lowered his head and saw many small swords and needles under his feet. He picked them up and looked at them, and said, "The murder weapons in the small forest, the Xushen Temple and the Moon Knife Gate are the same as here. Presumably, the murderer is the same person."

"Well, indeed."

"It seems that Cheng Sanjiu had a tragic fight with the murderer here."

"Yes." Xia Rupiao agreed with the analysis.

Sang Wuhen took a few more steps forward, staring at the stone wall, and found a few deep palm prints.

I touched it with my hand.Immediately feel that this person's internal strength is not trivial, and it is by no means inferior to him.Could it be that Cheng Sanjiu was the one doing the palming?
He looked carefully again, and suddenly his face darkened.

"What's wrong, Brother Sang."

"It's nothing."

After the three words came out of his mouth, he stood up straight and looked into the depths of the cave, finding a huge boulder blocking most of the way.

The boulder weighs several thousand catties.

If you don't look carefully, you think you have reached the end of the hole.

Sang Wuhen and Xia Rupiao gently walked around the stone wall and slowly advanced into the cave step by step.Explore the shocking secret that Cheng Sanjiu said, which is the estimated hundreds of human bones.

Unfortunately, except for the walls and the hard stones on the ground, there are almost no sundries, as if no one has ever entered here.

After walking about [-] meters or so, the hole became narrower and narrower, and finally, only the width of two people remained.

Xia Rupiao was a little discouraged and stopped.

"Is Cheng Sanjiu lying to us?"

"Based on the circumstances here, it seems possible, but he did stay here and was hunted."

"Brother Sang, I don't think there is any need to leave."

Sang Wuhen looked forward, then turned his head to look back, his heart was filled with doubts for a moment: Why did Cheng Sanjiu lie?Probably not, but the fact is in front of you, and you can't help but believe it.

What Xia Rupiao said was correct, it would be futile to go any further.

He nodded.

"Okay, get out."
