Senior Brother, His Beauty and Prosperity[Transmigration Book]

The shout came from the front hall. The place where Lu Xun slept was the living courtyard of the disciples, and it was a little distance from here to the front hall.

When they arrived, a group of people had already gathered in the front hall.

"what happened?"

As soon as Su Qingheng opened his mouth, the people around immediately moved out of the way. Lu Xun followed behind Su Qingheng, and saw two monks lying on the ground, with their heads and bodies forming a strange posture.

Turning the corpse over, the neck revealed a deep cut that was about to cut off the neck.

Everyone present gasped, the front hall immediately fell silent, and the night wind howled past, making people feel chills all over.

At this moment, a monk said hoarsely.

"The murderer may be among us."

He said "possible", but everyone knew that Lu Xun had set up a formation in the Temple of the Gods, people outside could not get in, and people inside could not get out. This is not "possible", but "certain".

Lu Xun glanced at the people present and asked, "Who was in the front hall just now?"

"I……"

"And I……"

Lu Xun: "Everyone stand in front..."

Seeing that Su Qingheng didn't intend to speak, the monks glanced at each other, moved to the front slowly, and looked at Lu Xun in fear.

In a few moments, more than [-] monks stood up.

"How many of you are in the front hall?"

After a long silence, the monk directly in front of Lu Xun spoke.

I can still vividly remember the way Lu Xun taught people in the morning, and I was terrified of Lu Xun in my heart, and I was afraid that no one would speak to Lu Xun and annoy Lu Xun.

"Yes Yes."

Seeing that Lu Xun's eyes fell on him, his heart jumped again, and he explained in a panic: "It has nothing to do with me."

"I didn't say it was about you."

Lu Xun was a little helpless. In the past, wherever he went, people would come out to echo him or praise him. Now he is disgusted and feared. In the hearts of everyone, he is a murderous monster without blinking an eye.

"Tell me the whole story."

The monk nodded repeatedly and told the story. "We didn't want to go to the dead room to sleep, so we lit the lights in the front hall and got together to chat in the front hall."

It is said to be chatting, but in fact it is because of fear that we get together.

"Then the oil lamp suddenly went out, and rustling sounds came from around. I was scared at first, but they said that the oil lamp was blown out because of the strong wind. I was not so nervous when I heard familiar voices."

"Then, Senior Brother Bai lit the oil lamp. We just breathed a sigh of relief when we found the two senior brothers lying on the ground."

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone spoke up immediately.

"The murderer is among the twenty of you."

As soon as these words came out, the crowd who had just gathered around immediately took half a step back, away from the twenty monks who stood up, showing vigilant eyes.

"Then the murderer and the door destroyer are the same person?" A male cultivator asked timidly.

"If the murderer had already guessed that we would investigate this matter, wouldn't we have become sheep that strayed into the wolf's den?"

The voice of speaking gradually became quieter, and everyone's faces were ugly. Lu Xun looked at the corpse on the ground thoughtfully, and said to everyone.

"There are four possibilities, assuming that the murderer and the door destroyer are the same person. The first possibility is that he disguised himself as your fellow disciple and mixed in. The second possibility, such as this..."

Lu Xun pointed to the male cultivator who spoke just now.

"As he said, the murderer is lurking in the Temple of the Gods, waiting for us to turn ourselves in."

No matter which two it is, it is not a good result. After hearing this, everyone turned pale again.

Jing Ran had a big heart, and after digesting what Lu Xun said, he asked again. "Not four possibilities? There are two more..."

Before Lu Xun could speak, Su Qingheng answered for him.

"Assuming that the murderer and the door-destroyer are not the same person, it may be a vendetta. The murderer is among the 20 of you. He took advantage of the chaos to kill people and blamed the door-destroyer. This can not only avenge but also remove suspicion."

"The last possibility..."

"I know..." Jing Ran took the bait and said proudly.

"The last possibility...the murderer and the door destroyer are not the same person, but knowing in advance that these two people will participate in this investigation, ambushing here is also a vendetta."

After hearing the latter two possibilities, everyone was relieved. If it was just a vendetta, then it has nothing to do with them. Everyone is safe.

At this moment, everyone hoped that the murderer and the door destroyer were not the same person.

But regardless of whether the murderer and the door destroyer were the same person, the most suspected of these twenty people.

"I suggest that the twenty of you must hand over your weapons and proclaim your internal strength. This is for the safety of everyone."

"I agree……"

"I think it's okay..."

"no……"

Some of the 20 objected.

"If it's just a vendetta, then it's useless to seal our internal strength. Now that the person is dead, the murderer has also taken revenge. Restricting us is just one stroke many times."

"But if it's not a vendetta, the killer and the murderer are the same person, and they are lurking in a corner of the Temple of the Gods. Then we don't have a magic weapon for self-defense. Isn't it like showing our neck to the murderer, reminding them to kill us first?"

The two parties insisted on their own opinions and quarreled fiercely.

Gu Yunzhou, who had been silent for a long time, stood up.

"Not like this..."

Everyone immediately quieted down and turned to look at Gu Yunzhou.

"We have so many people present, so we separated the 20 of them one by one." Gu Yunzhou pointed to the monks and said, "You are in a group of three, choose one of the 20 people, and act together as a team."

It is said that they are acting together, but in fact they are considered guarding.

"This……"

The other monks were still hesitating, but the 20 people reluctantly agreed when they heard that they didn't need to hand over the immortal artifact.

Jing Ran very much agrees.

"That's it, you can share a room with four people and monitor each other. Don't get together, the goal is too big."

"But isn't it more dangerous to separate? And... Lu and Lu Xun also said that if the door destroyers are not the 20 of them, maybe they are lurking in a corner, then each of us is in danger of being killed."

A few disciples with low cultivation bases were unwilling to be separated from those with high cultivation bases. It was safe for them to stick together.

"No, why are you so afraid of death?" Jing Ran looked at them with disgust, "If you are afraid, why don't you come to my room?"

The few monks looked at Jing Ran, afraid of Jing Ran's identity as a demon, and afraid of being attacked at night, hesitated and didn't know what to do.

The others acted in groups according to what Yun Zhou said, and the rest also dragged their colleagues back to the room. No one dared to stay in the front hall, and all went back to the backyard to find a room where they could rest.

the next day……

Lu Xun and Su Qingheng came out of the room, just in time for the monk in the next room to open the door and come out.

The three of them met each other, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.

The monk looked at Su Qingheng and then at Lu Xun.

"Well... may I ask, why did Immortal Master Si Mo share a room with you? When I came out yesterday, I thought I had read it wrong. Then... you slept together last night?"

The monk expressed the doubts in his heart, although he didn't dare to ask other questions.

But about the death yesterday, no one could sleep except for a few big-hearted people. When they heard the movement outside the door, they opened the door and came out. Coincidentally, the words 'sleeping together' were heard by many people. .

Their eyes fell on Su Qingheng and Lu Xun, and they didn't know what they thought of, their expressions changed again and again.

Su Qingheng looked indifferent, and had no intention of explaining, so Lu Xun could only talk nonsense.

"Didn't something happen yesterday? You...Simo Xianzun doesn't trust me, so you came to monitor me."

One sentence solved everyone's doubts.

Lu Xun didn't even blush when he lied, he just opened his mouth, and everyone believed what he said.

Lu Xunsheng is good-looking, and has always been sought after by the immortals. Many people present have admired Lu Xun.

At first, they were overwhelmed by Lu Xun's powerful aura after he became a demon, but when Lu Xun spoke in a soft tone, they seemed to see Lu Xun who was once "easy and near".

If it wasn't for being enchanted, Lu Xun would definitely have a seat in the immortal sect. As the most favored disciple of the Xuanshan School, he has a high level of cultivation and should have been the favored son of heaven.

Even the little junior who was brought up by his own hands didn't trust him so much.

This was so tragic that everyone felt distressed and regretful, and their eyes on Lu Xun changed from fear to pity.

"I, we all believe it's not you."

"That's right, we know it's not you. It was our deep-rooted prejudice against the demons before, and we subconsciously thought that all demons were bad."

"Before... if it wasn't for Qiu's sect to attack the mountain, he wouldn't have..."

"Lu Xun... Brother Lu, I'm sorry." The monk stood up, "I received your help before, and not only did I not repay you, but I even hated you. I am really sorry."

"Senior Brother Lu is really good. I was unable to break through two years ago, but Senior Brother Lu woke me up. I shouldn't have misunderstood Senior Brother Lu."

"Senior brother Lu has been in the devil until now, and I haven't heard that he has done anything harmful to the sky... This cultivation has gone wrong, and you can't blame it all on Senior Brother Lu."

Another burst of sighs.

Lu Xun didn't expect that things would turn out unexpectedly, and he was not as miserable as everyone imagined.

The people who were yelling at him yesterday, who were terrified, were justifying him overnight.

Just, quite suddenly.

Gu Yunzhou looked at Lu Xun silently, but when Lu Xun looked over, he quickly looked away again.

Lu Xun had an idea, and felt that now was the best opportunity to seek peace.

In the past, he was afraid of implicating the Shimen, so he didn't dare to get too close to the people of Xuanshan Sect. He was worried that the Shimen would be misunderstood by other immortal sects as colluding with the Demon Race.

Now, some people are willing to believe him, and Lu Xun has nothing to hide, thinking of taking the opportunity to make a fool of himself, maybe Gu Yunzhou won't get angry with him if he feels distressed.

"Eldest brother..." Lu Xun looked at Gu Yunzhou cautiously, "I really didn't do anything bad, and I didn't deliberately hide it from you, I was just afraid that you would drive me away..."

Gu Yunzhou didn't give Lu Xun a chance to continue to play, he raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then turned and left.

Lu Xun lowered his head in disappointment, really disappointed.

When he was a child, Gu Yunzhou would scold him when he was angry, and he would just let it go if he played tricks or acted coquettishly occasionally. This was the first time he had a cold war with Lu Xun. Lu Xun really didn't know how to make peace with Gu Yunzhou.

Probably because they didn't expect Gu Yunzhou to leave just like that, everyone was surprised and felt sorry for Lu Xun even more.

Everyone knows that Gu Yunzhou is very caring about Lu Xun, a junior, and he can be said to be very defensive.

Now not only Su Qingheng doesn't trust Lu Xun, but even Gu Yunzhou who has a preference for Lu Xun doesn't listen to his explanation.

Thinking about it this way, Lu Xun was really miserable.

This development is worse than the story in the storybook!

Especially when they saw Lu Xun's dejected look, the monks immediately felt distressed.

"Senior Brother Lu, don't be sad, Senior Brother Gu just can't accept it for a while, so give him some more time."

"Yes, yes, yes, they are all my brothers and sisters, so it's okay to be angry."

"Senior Brother Gu has been taught since he was a child to eliminate demons and defend the Tao. It is normal for Senior Brother Lu to hide his obsession from demons, so it is difficult for Senior Brother Gu to accept."

and many more……

Hide it!

Lu Xun suddenly realized, he seemed to know why Gu Yunzhou was so angry.

"Thank you..." Lu Xun thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Thinking that Lu Xun was thanking them for their comfort, everyone waved their hands in embarrassment, but Lu Xun didn't explain much.

As soon as the words are spoken, there will be no tit-for-tat before, but not all monks can let go of their prejudice against Lu Xun, some still hold a neutral attitude, and some disdain it, but they are smart enough not to show it, maintaining just the right attitude Peace.

Su Qingheng asked everyone to gather in the front hall, and after counting the number of people, except for the two monks who died yesterday, there were no other accidents.

This relieved everyone who was tense, but they still had to be vigilant.

The investigation is still going on, and the monks are investigating in groups of several people in the Temple of the Gods.Lu Xun always felt that the corpse was weird, so he and Su Qingheng walked towards the open space where the corpse was placed.

"I looked at it yesterday, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with the corpse."

Jing Ran didn't quite understand it. While others were busy looking for clues and investigating places where people might be hiding, Lu Xun was obsessed with the corpse itself.

"Would you be surprised if the two of us got into a fight and stabbed you to death?"

Regarding Lu Xun's hypothetical question, Jing Ran thought for a while and asked in doubt.

"I know I can't beat you, so I must hide. Isn't it stupid to run if I can't beat you?"

Lu Xun: "..."

Jiang Chuchu: "..."

Lu Xun and Jiang Chuchu looked at each other, and looked at Jingran with the eyes of a fool.

"Then why do you think the disciples of the Temple of Gods don't run away?"

Jing Ran didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him, and answered calmly and directly.

"They are stupid!"

Su Qingheng just finished examining a corpse, put down the white cloth, didn't want to listen to Jingran's nonsense, and said it without looking back.

"It's not that you can't escape, or you can't escape."

Jing Ran's eyes flashed, "You mean, someone like Lu Xun cast a formation in the Temple of the Gods, so they can't escape?"

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned by Jing Ran's words.They didn't mean that, but Jing Ran's words reminded them that there was indeed such a possibility.

"I just checked, and there are traces of other formations beside the formation that Axun set up, which is not easy to detect."

After Gu Yunzhou finished speaking, he realized that he had just habitually called "Axun", but the attention of several people was on the formation he said.

"Yesterday, I felt that the corpse was weird because, knowing that you can't beat the other party, being killed is inevitable, and you will be afraid of death, but their expressions don't look like panic, but more like disbelief."

Jing Ran suddenly realized, "That's right, since the visitor is not kind, he must die. This expression is more like seeing something unbelievable."

Gu Yunzhou said: "Now we have found two clues. One is the formation in the Temple of Gods, and the other is the reaction of the corpse before death."

"Both leads are important, but not clear enough."

After a busy day, there were only these two clues in the end, and the traces of the formation were not very clear. The monks discussed it for several rounds but could not tell what the formation was.

Compared to yesterday's blind panic, today was rewarding anyway, and everyone was too tired after busy work, so they went back to their houses to rest at night.

Lu Xun entered the door with his front foot, and Su Qingheng followed behind.

"What?"

Su Qingheng answered as a matter of course.

"According to what the senior brother said... to monitor you."

Lu Xun: "..."

"That's just an excuse, why are you more serious?"

"Excuse?" Su Qingheng raised his eyebrows, and said to Lu Xun seriously.

"It is indeed necessary to monitor, if not, the brother will leave me again one day, then where can I find someone?"

"I'm relieved to follow senior brother as before."

Lu Xun: "..."

Lu Xun was at a loss for words for a moment, but he didn't know how to refute. Su Qingheng had a smile in his eyes, and his gentle, harmless and well-behaved appearance made Lu Xun dazzled.

It wasn't until there was a hint of coolness from his wrist that he pulled Lu Xun's attention.

He looked down, and saw that his wrist was bound by the immortal lock at some point, and the other end of the chain was in the hands of the gentle, harmless and well-behaved Su Qingheng.

Lu Xun: "?"

What?
