Long Aotian, please stay away from me

"Grandmother asked us if we had seen the dagger that day. I felt a little strange at the time, but I didn't know the reason for this feeling, so I went back to my grandma and said that I hadn't seen it. Later, I went back to work, and I didn't care at first. But when I was helping Patriarch Yan clean the study, I suddenly thought, I seem to have seen that talisman somewhere before."

"But I only feel familiar. I am not talented enough to practice Taoism. I am very unfamiliar with these sigils. I just feel that I have seen similar patterns somewhere. But whether they are exactly the same or not, I can't say for sure."

Yue Qiyun's heart trembled, "Where did you meet the girl?"

The maid thought for a while: "I remembered it when I was cleaning the study, maybe when I was packing up the books one day, I accidentally glanced at some book? But I really can't remember, I just think this Where have the sigils been seen before?"

"Girl, have you told anyone else about this?" Yue Qiyun asked.

The maid shook her head: "I'm not sure where I saw that thing, and... I'm afraid..."

Yue Qiyun understood.If this girl remembers where she met her... Even if she doesn't remember, if the real murderer finds out, she might kill her to silence her.

But Yue Qiyun and the others came from the outside after the incident, and they were the ones who specialized in investigating this matter, so they definitely couldn't be the murderer.

"Girl, you must never mention this to anyone in the Yan family." Yue Qiyun reminded her that if she did not know the identity of the murderer, if she revealed it to someone else, and that person happened to be related to the real murderer , would easily lead to death.

The maid nodded, "I understand."

The maid was preparing to leave here quietly when there was no one around, Yue Qiyun frowned and asked with a smile, "Can I ask the girl's name?"

"My name is Dongbai." Dongbai blushed, lowered his head and quickly left the guest house.

"Little senior brother, let's talk about things. Why do you ask her name?" Wu You has been standing not far away from now on, waiting for them to talk. Gloomy, he said in a strange way.

"Have you seen it in the book? The cheats of the magic sect? The Yan family has the magic sect's kung fu? Sure enough, someone practiced the magic sect?" Yue Qiyun seemed to be talking to Wu You, or talking to himself .

Wu You knew at a glance that Yue Qiyun said that on purpose, even if he didn't want to answer his words, he didn't dare to take the opportunity to make use of it.

He could only heave a long sigh, he was helpless in front of Yue Qiyun.

But even if he knew that the Yan family had magic cultivation techniques, Yue Qiyun couldn't just go to other people's study to check them out.

This is similar to an outsider's trespassing on the Yuquan School's library, and it is a taboo of the aristocratic sect.

He had to find an opportunity to sneak in.

And not only to find the magic technique, but also to find a way to make sure that someone has indeed practiced the magic technique.Only when someone gets stolen goods can he be thoroughly convicted.

Yue Qiyun carefully sorted out what he knew, and came up with a rough guess.

The head of the Yan family has outstanding talent but a humble background. Later, he got a chance to cultivate himself. Assuming this chance, it is the magic cultivation method.

He killed people with a weapon engraved with a magic pattern, and took away his cultivation... No, Yan Shu probably wouldn't do it himself.

If Yue Qiyun is in Yan Shu's situation, then he will hide the function of this sigil, find opportunities to find excuses for weapons to unrelated people, and let other people fight each other, and he will just wait by the side .

The murderer had no idea what the weapon was really for.The murderer may have killed because of his own personal grievances and has nothing to do with Yan Shu.

Besides, the one who died this time was just an ordinary servant, and the murderer was probably just a mortal rather than a monk.

It's just that the murderer didn't have the right timing to kill this time. It just happened that Yue Qiyun and the others came to Yicheng and felt the magic energy when the talisman was activated.

If they didn't come, then this matter is just the death of an ordinary servant of the Yan family, and no one will care at all.

What about the ancestor of the Yan family?Does she have anything to do with it?Who used that blood to lead people to the door of the ancestor of the Yan family?

Is it to lure Qi Yue and the others?Or did he have other purposes but was seen by Yue Qiyun?After all, these are not things that monks would do.

If it wasn't for Yue Qiyun, other monks might not have noticed it at all.

The patriarch of the Yan family was willing to come forward only because the magic cultivator had a very important issue and he had to make an appearance in front of the monks of the Yuquan sect, or did he have other plans?

Also, Yue Qiyun and the others first came to Yicheng to investigate the strange news from the Yuquan faction. What does this matter have to do with the Yan family?

No matter how you think about it, there are still some places that can't be connected.

There were too many key points missing, and Yue Qiyun couldn't figure it out for the time being.

***

Unexpectedly, after a day, things took a new turn.

The ancestor of the Yan family found the murderer.

The ancestor of the Yan family called the members of the Yuquan sect and some of the Yan family's descendants. When Yue Qiyun and the others walked to the main hall of the Yan family, there was a maid kneeling in the middle of the main hall.

Seeing the arrival of Brother Yuquan, the ancestor of the Yan family sitting in the high hall said solemnly: "Chunhong, please explain the matter again."

Chunhong kowtowed to the ancestor of the Yan family, and slowly said: "I killed the man. The man obviously had a family but he kept pestering me all the time. I couldn't bear it, so I secretly called him out at night. Take the opportunity to kill him."

Yue Qiyun wanted to ask something, but he didn't speak immediately.

The ancestor of the Yan family continued to ask: "Where did you get the dagger used for killing?"

Chunhong's voice trembled slightly, "Go back to grandma, I found this in the tool room."

At this time, a servant presented the dagger, and the grandmother of the Yan family asked, "Do you know the seal on this dagger?"

Chunhong paused and did not speak, Yan's grandmother said softly: "Speak up, make it clear." Although the voice was not loud, it was full of kindness and prestige.

Chunhong tremblingly opened her mouth slowly: "I went to the equipment room in the courtyard, looking for a suitable weapon. After searching through the boxes and cabinets, I found this dagger in the corner. Although I have no bones, I can't enter the Tao Cultivation, at any rate, I have stayed in the Yan family for so many years, and I know that things with talismans are definitely not ordinary. The size of this dagger is also suitable, so I chose it."

The murder story made sense, but the crux of the matter was who drew the sigil on the dagger.

Yue Qiyun quietly observed Yan Shu secretly, Yan Shu's expression did not change a bit.

At this time, a female disciple of Sui Hanfeng said: "May I ask the ancestor of the Yan family, do you know who made the talisman on this dagger?"

The ancestor of the Yan family took a sip of tea and said softly, "Chunhong, tell me."

Chunhong didn't dare to speak.

The ancestor of the Yan family took a look at her.

Chunhong buried her head lower: "This is something from my own yard."

Brother Yuquan hadn't figured it out yet, but the expressions of the Yan family members present changed.

Standing beside Yue Qiyun, Wu You lowered her head and whispered in his ear, "I don't know which one of the Yan family her master is."

Yue Qiyun was taken aback, wasn't it Yan Shu?

At this time, the ancestor of the Yan family asked a maid beside him, "Where is the third master?"

The maid replied: "The third master said he was sick for many days, and he has not come out of the yard since the incident happened."

"Sick today too?" Yan family patriarch Liu frowned slightly, with an unhappy expression on his face, "This row of noodles is big enough."

Several young masters and young ladies of the Yan family whispered to each other for a while, some were shocked, some gloated.

The grandmother of the Yan family went on to say: "Whoever of you can call the third master, go and call the third master here personally."

A servant was so frightened that he quickly led the order and ran out, apparently looking for someone.

A large group of people waited in the hall for a long time before Mr. Yan came late.

Mr. Yan, who had lived in a high position for a long time, was arrogant and rude, raised his head to the sky, and after entering the door, he saluted the ancestor of the Yan family: "Greetings to grandma." His face was full of etiquette, but he was full of dissatisfaction.

He turned a blind eye to the Patriarch of the Yan family standing next to him.

It seems that he has resentment towards the patriarch who was born out of a side branch.

Yue Qiyun secretly speculated that because the ancestor of the Yan family supported Yan Shu as the head of the family, the third master Yan, who was supposed to take over the position of the head of the family, was resentful about this?

Third Master Yan caught Wu You out of the corner of his eye, turned his head and pretended to be enthusiastic, and said to Wu You: "I have admired Young Master Wu's name for a long time, and he is as romantic as the rumors say. He has an extraordinary demeanor. Young Master Wu came to visit a few days ago. It is inconvenient to see each other, I hope Young Master Wu is not to blame."

Wu You sneered, with a frivolous and arrogant look on his face.This young master is also used to being domineering, arrogant and rude.

To Yue Qiyun, who was as famous as Wu You, Mr. Yan just saluted and didn't say anything.

"Do you know why I called you here today?" After everyone finished their salutes, the ancestor of the Yan family opened his mouth again, keeping his eyes on the third master Yan.

When Mr. Yan entered the door, he kept his head upright. Only then did he lower his eyebrows and see the maid who was kneeling in the middle. His expression changed slightly, and after a breath, he returned to his previous state.

The ancestor of the Yan family signaled his servants to present the dagger in front of Mr. Yan: "Do you know him?"

Sanye Yan glanced casually, and said casually: "This kind of dagger is uniformly made of molds and can be seen everywhere. Half a piece of spirit stone is not worth it. The entire Yan family can find a hundred or eighty of them casually. There are also a lot of hawkers selling knives on the street, and you can buy silver and copper in the world."

The patriarch of the Yan family smiled, but his words were extremely powerful: "I found this in your yard. Do you recognize the talisman on it?"

"I haven't seen it, I don't know it." Mr. Yan didn't even look at it.

The patriarch of the Yan family suddenly changed his face, and said sternly: "This is the end of the matter, and I can no longer protect you."

She turned her head to look at Wu You: "Master Wu, I found him for you. Now I leave it to you, and please ask Yuquan to send all the fellow Taoists to be witnesses. The Yan family has nothing to do with it, and we have been kept in the dark all this time, and we only just found out the truth."

Third Master Yan's face suddenly turned pale, "What does grandma mean?"

The slight cold sweat on his head and the trembling of his body did not escape Yue Qiyun's eyes.

When Mr. Yan first entered the door, Yue Qiyun already had a feeling that this Mr. Yan might have really practiced the magic technique.

There seemed to be a hint of devilish energy in him, but the breath was very weak, not to mention that other monks could not detect it, even Yue Qiyun would inevitably mistake it for an illusion.

What's more, Yue Qiyun and the others have been staying at Yan's house for the past few days, and Sanye Yan has been staying in his courtyard. There is a magic circle to block the detection of spiritual consciousness. With his devilish energy surrounding him, Yue Qiyun and the others couldn't detect it outside.

It seems that Mr. Yan drew sigils on the daggers that can be seen everywhere, waiting for others to fight each other to make him a wedding dress?

So what about the magic cultivation technique in Yan Shu's study?Yue Qiyun thought about it, but Dongbai was actually not sure where she had seen this talisman.

And if Yue Qiyun is the third master of Yan, he should find a chance to hide the magic technique with Yan Shu, and if one day the talisman on the dagger is spotted by someone he knows, he can find a chance to blame Yan on the tree.

Does it really have nothing to do with Yan Shu?What other secrets of chance did he get instead of the magic technique?
