My wife is not a demon

After exploring the bottom of the lake, I found that the water depth is only three meters high, which feels like a man-made lake.

There are no plants such as algae at the bottom of the lake.

Chen Mu swam a few laps at the bottom of the lake, only seeing a circle of red stones and four nailed stone pillars underneath, but nothing else.

After confirming that no clues could be found, Chen Mu took Su Qiaoer ashore.

"Steward Zhao must have a reason for coming here. The strange thing is what did that guy do and where did he go now?"

Using aura to dry the wet clothes, Chen Mu sat on the stone next to him and thought.

Su Qiaoer sat obediently aside with her legs together and did not disturb him.

Perhaps because he was bored after waiting too long, he put his head lightly on the man's lap, staring at the turbid lake in a daze.

The pretty snow dimple is steaming with a little rosy color, which is indescribably beautiful.

After watching for a while, the girl turned her head to look at Chen Mu's cheek again.

But the moment she turned her head, she involuntarily looked towards the top of the hall, and then she screamed and sat up in fright.

"what happened?"

Chen Mu looked at the panicked little girl suspiciously.

With pale cheeks, the girl pointed to the top of her head: "Up...up..."

Chen Mu looked up, and saw a corpse nailed to the top of the mountain hall. The eyes of the corpse were still open, as if looking straight at them.

At this moment, even Chen Mu's back felt chills, and he took a few steps back with the little girl in his arms.

When he observed carefully again, he found that the corpse turned out to be the High Altar Master!

That's right!

It is the high altar master who has been missing for several days!

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

"I thought he had sensed his whereabouts and ran away, but he died unexpectedly."

Chen Mu couldn't tell what it was like.

Through the previous clues, we can know that Gao Tanzhu and Ma Yunzi's daughter Cha Zhuxiang are in the same group.

This guy seemed to have tricked him and Yun Zhiyue in the temple last time.

I didn't expect the corpse to appear here.

Chen Mu motioned Su Qiao'er to step aside, relying on something extraterrestrial to stick to the corpse on the top of the cave, observing carefully.

Judging from the condition of the body, it has been dead for six or seven days.

It's just that there is a layer of medicinal powder around the corpse, which makes the decay speed of the corpse not so fast.

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

Chen Mu said lightly. "It seems that someone was killed head-on, and the corpse was nailed here on purpose, which meant a deliberate humiliation."

Who killed the altar master?

Butler Zhao?

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

"If the high altar master is with the headless bride Zha Zhuxiang, then he also has a part in assassinating the high altar master. It's just why he agreed to go to the capital with Miss Murong to rescue Ji Wuming. Could it be—"

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

hostage?

Yes, they should want to take Murong Ping as a hostage!

Judging from Gao Tanzhu's experience in Tiandihui, he can be regarded as an old employee, but in the end he only became the altar master.

He should have been moved by Cha Zhuxiang's interests, so he cooperated.

Because judging from his prestige and achievements in Nanfeng Rudder, if Murong Rudder Master dies, then he has a high probability of being the next Rudder Master.

Moreover, the day Murong Ruozhu was killed was obviously arranged in advance.

The patrolling guards did not arrive in time.

Several masters were also specially brought to the capital by the master of the high altar to save Ji Wuming...

Created good enough assassination conditions for Cha Zhuxiang.

And with his temperament, he didn't dare to take too much risk, so he simply agreed to go to the capital to save people with Miss Murong.

Out of good intentions.

But in fact, if Zha Zhuxiang failed in the assassination, he could take Murong Ping as a hostage to give himself a chance to escape.

Besides, it was by the river that day.

As soon as their boat passed, the bride's beheading happened, which should be a signal sent by both parties.

Of course, these are only Chen Mu's temporary inferences.

Now that the high altar master is dead, the only way to find out the true truth of the matter is to find Zha Zhuxiang.

Chen Mu thought for a long time, and said to Su Qiaoer: "Let's go, let's leave here first, and then go to other places to check."

"Ah."

The girl nodded slightly.

Using the technique of space to walk out of the tunnel, Chen Mu and Su Qiaoer walked down the mountain road on the other side of Dayun Mountain.

When he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, a familiar figure suddenly caught Chen Mu's eyes.

Red Bamboo!

Chapter 350 The Missing Young Master!

The woman is still in the familiar bright red dress.

A little white leg skin flowed out from the slit of the skirt, as if it was creamy and attractive, standing there pretty.
