Traveling back to ancient times from the Western Han Dynasty
Chapter 42: Replaying the Murder Case
Watching Qing wolfing down the food, Yan Fang suddenly remembered the murder case that occurred at the market before.
"The murderer was able to arrive in time, so he must have been observing nearby, either by magic or in person."
"Also, I just thought of something. The murderer is probably near Yu Ling's stall..."
During those days, Yan Fang was confused by murderous intent and personal emotions and didn't think about it for a while. Now that he has calmed down, he realized that something was wrong.
Why did the murderer stay there? Was it just because he wanted to show off or because Yan Fang discovered him?
The opponent is very fast and thoughtful, so it would be normal for him to strike and run away, unless an unexpected situation forces him to stay where he is.
So what accident happened at that time?
There was no other reason. Everyone was looking at Chuan in surprise and shock. Except for Yan Fang who quickly realized something was wrong and shifted his gaze, there was only one person who ran towards his girlfriend as soon as he sensed danger.
"The direction Xuan and the murderer retreated should overlap!"
Xuan was probably blocking the road at the time, and the murderer was afraid of being discovered, so he did not leave immediately. Because Xuan's own strength was not weak, if he acted at the same time, he would definitely be discovered by Xuan.
No matter how powerful he is, once discovered by Xuan, he will definitely be surrounded and killed by the other guards who have been attracted to the vicinity.
In addition, why did the other party find out that Yan Fang was going to report him in the first place? And why did he threaten to kill him in time?
His action was not big at that time, and only those who had been paying attention to them beforehand would have noticed it.
The other party either paid attention to the escape route after killing someone, or knew Xuan for a long time and had some kind of interest in him...
It is impossible for one person to succeed in his thinking, so Yan Fang told his speculation to Xuan who was also watching Qing wolfing down the food.
Yan Fang expressed his speculations one by one, then stared at Xuan's expression, observing carefully.
“I remember that when I arrived, the shop owners were all fine in their stalls.”
Xuan has a pretty good memory and quickly recalled what he saw yesterday.
"In the stall? They are all there. Could it be that I guessed in the wrong direction?"
Yan Fang frowned. Since everyone was present, it was impossible for him to block Xuan's way.
“If the scope is limited to that area, and everyone in that area is present, could it be that the soul is out of the body?”
At this time, Jiang Rong's voice as clear as a silver bell sounded in Yan Fang's ears, leading Yan Fang out of the fog.
Yan Fang and Xuan did not avoid her when they communicated. The incident at the market was considered a big deal in You Xiong, so she had heard about it. However, she did not expect that Brother Yan Fang had come into contact with the murderer and suffered such a dangerous situation.
"There is a formation to exorcise evil spirits in the market. It is very difficult for ordinary spirits to hide their bodies. I am afraid that their strength is not bad, or they are familiar with the formation..."
Knowing the danger and wanting to find the murderer, Jiang Rong made guesses from the perspectives of the supernatural, witchcraft, and formations.
"Then the people and monsters around here shouldn't be that powerful, right?"
Xuan thought about it and decided that among everyone present, he knew that area best.
Although the order of stalls at the market was different each time, and there were new faces and familiar faces leaving, he had come into contact with everyone in this area of the market because of Yu Ling, and he did not find any powerful characters among them.
He said this first and then recalled the situation at that time. He felt that Yan Fang and Jiang Rong's guesses made sense.
"I remember when I rushed to Yuling's place, it seemed that apart from Zhensao and her daughter and Ji Yun, only Yuling came out to take a look."
Zhen Sao and her daughter were the ones selling pottery bowls at the stall where Shouweichuan's body was discovered. Ji Yun was selling the seeds at the stall between Yuling and Zhen Sao's stalls. He was an ordinary member of the Yanjiao clan of the Yanjiao tribe among the six major tribes, and did not have much talent.
The clan name is derived from the surname. For example, the Yanjiao clan and the Youxiong clan are distant relatives. They both have the surname Ji. It seems that they were originally split from clan tribes. Xuan's full name can be Ji Xuan, while the Yunxing tribe has the surname Bai. The full name of the genius who also has golden opportunity is Bai Hao.
"Huang He is usually lazy, so it's normal that he didn't go out. But the Toad Spirit is always smart and likes to watch the show. Why didn't he care about the incident?"
Without Yan Fang's guidance, Xuan, who was familiar with the people at that stall, also noticed the problem.
Huang He is the bird demon at the stall to the right of Yu Ling, and the toad spirit Huang Tong is the owner of the largest and cleanest stall on the upper left.
There were only a few monsters setting up stalls to trade in the human race's sphere of influence. Bronze, Yellow Crane and Jade Spirit were all monsters of the same level, and their stalls were always very close to each other. Bronze also often harassed Jade Spirit, so Xuan was very familiar with the monsters.
"Toad spirit? Where did the copper practice?"
When Yan Fang heard that the wealthy-looking man was Toad Spirit, he was touched and remembered what the big man had said.
"For the second level of cold water, you can go to some icy and dangerous places to look for it."
The fake martial art "Nine Waters Body Tempering Art" requires nine kinds of evil water to practice. The first kind is easy to find. You can just look for a hot spring near the underground fire. If that doesn't work, you can also dig a hole yourself and fill it with water.
In the past, Yan Fang thought that underground fire was difficult to find, but now Yan Fang knows that since the war between the wizards and the demons in the prehistoric world, the heaven and earth have been in turmoil, and underground fire often emerges from the ground.
Although it is quite dangerous, it has also promoted people's application of underground fire, such as the smelting development of various tribes in the prehistoric times. In recent years, many magical weapons have appeared. Even the human race, each tribe has its own blacksmith shop, and the Youxiong tribe even has several.
Therefore, all the tribes in the ancient times have many ways to deal with and even find and utilize the underground fire. Therefore, even if someone has never practiced martial arts, as long as he has money, he can easily find and utilize the underground fire.
The second level of cold water is hard to find. There shouldn't be many places with cold water near bears, and toads are cold...
"Huang Tong should be practicing in Yuliu Mountain, where cold herbs are abundant."
When Xuan heard Yan Fang's guess, he also had some guesses in his mind.
"Ah."
In fact, Yan Fang had already guessed about the brass, but he didn't know it was a toad spirit at that time.
However, excluding a few mortals who seemed to have no abilities nearby, the Toad Spirit's stall was the largest and most prestigious among all the monsters. As an acquired monster, it must be extraordinary to have such a venue. It is probably related to some of the people in power in the Bear Tribe, such as the third chief.
The reason why he asked so many questions was that he actually wanted to see Xuan's reaction. Now that he saw it, some of the speculations in his mind were temporarily put aside.
What he didn't say was that his first suspect was actually Yu Ling, although Yu Ling was actually a nice person. Compared to the relatively barbaric human race today, she was dignified and a lady from a noble family.
I don’t know how these acquired demons with little inheritance and relatively closed living environment grew into this appearance, but Yan Fang still doubts her.
Yuling’s stall is in that area, and the rabbit is also a yin monster.
Moreover, there is no Yu Ling or any rabbit in the later Xuanyuan legends. If it is discovered now that Yu Ling is a villain, it is very normal to separate Xuan and her. It can also help Xuan grow up, which is a very perfect script.
However, judging from Xuan's performance, Yu Ling should not have been abnormal at that time.
"From what we can see now, there is something wrong with that Toad Spirit, but we have no evidence and there is nothing we can do to him."
Xuan said this, feeling both happy and distressed.
He was delighted to have found the murderer, which gave him hope of revenge for his former good captain Chuan, but he was distressed that he had not found any evidence.
"This is easy to handle."
Yan Fang chuckled. As long as they found the target, everything would be easy. Xuan and Jiang Rong were people from ancient times, so they were still too naive in their calculations.
