Chapter 120 Suspenseful Beijing Watch
After sending off the innocent disciples of Ant Fairy Sect and those children, Su Lin boarded the big boat back home again.
On the way back to Wu'an City, he asked Lu Zhuyu about the Jingguan incident in Wu'an City.
Although Su Lin ran away in a hurry because he was chased and killed by Taolin Sanren, he never forgot about the Jingguan incident, because this is the only clue related to Wang Xiaofeng that Su Lin knows so far.
Niu Chuxi, an ordinary farm boy, sent a letter to his mother in Wang Xiaofeng's handwriting after he disappeared. These two things that should have nothing to do with each other link Jingguan, who lived in Zhenwu for thirteen years, with the monsters in Longyuan County. together.
In any case, Su Lin must find out the truth behind it.
"Sister Lu, during the time I've been away, has there been any change in the Beijing view of Wu'an City?" When Su Lin entered the cabin, Lu Zhuyu, who was wearing an ink-wash robe, was reviewing the memorial.
When she saw Su Lin coming in, she put down her writing brush: "After you left, everyone was dead. In just a few days, one person disappeared from gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, but nothing happened since then. There is no abnormality in Wu'an City." shape."
Su Lin frowned: "Is there anything unusual?"
"Yes, I am also very strange, but it is indeed the case. The city is calm and peaceful, making people uneasy. But the culprit hidden behind did not move, and we naturally have nothing to do with him, and other things are busy, so Jingguan Put it on hold for now."
After Lu Zhuyu finished speaking, he scratched his greasy hair that hadn't been washed for several days, and organized the language: "I know you want to continue the investigation. If you have any clues to the investigation, you can tell me. If the company can cooperate, it will definitely cooperate, but According to my experience... this matter will not make progress in a short time."
Lu Zhuyu walked quickly to the nearby bookshelf, opened the drawer, took out a few volumes and put them on the table, and said to Su Lin: "This is written by myself, the summary of the Wu'an City Jingguan incident, you can read it first Look, you can only go back to Wu'an City to read more detailed information. But I advise you not to have too much hope, most of the weird cases are fruitless in the end."
"I know that, some things can't be solved no matter how hard we try."
Su Lin understands this truth very well. Committing a crime is always easier than solving it. Even in a modern society with advanced technology, the number of unresolved cases still far exceeds the number of solved cases.
Su Lin picked up the table
He opened the dossier and glanced at it briefly, and said directly: "There should be no breakthrough after reading the information on Wu'an City. Since the Jingguan in Wu'an is so similar to the case in the capital city in the thirteenth year of Zhenwu, maybe it can be learned from that year. The case started."
Lu Zhuyu was taken aback for a moment, and the writing brush he just raised hovered in the air again.
She looked at Su Lin in surprise, not daring to say anything: "You don't want to solve the Jingguan case in Zhenwu's 13th year, do you?"
"I'm not so arrogant, but since it's the same method, the motive for committing the crime is likely to be the same. And I remember you said that in that year, demons made trouble frequently, and Emperor Gaozu was assassinated more than 20 times." Su Lin said.
Lu Zhuyu: "That's right, the two incidents of demons making trouble and cultivators committing murder are indeed a bit bizarre. You should have heard the rumors about Emperor Gaozu and Tiantiao to some extent."
Su Lin nodded slightly. About the rule of "mortals cannot see immortals", I first heard it from Nan Zhixian. It seems that this rule of heaven existed before the founding of Daxia, but its power became stronger after Zhu Jiuqin founded the country. after.
Therefore, many people have speculated about Zhu Jiuqin, thinking that he has something to do with Tiantiao. Although Zhu Jiuqin could not be the one who ascended to strengthen Tiantiao, Tiantiao's increased power collided with the time when he established the Great Xia. , the high probability is not a coincidence.
"That's right, the emperor of Daliang is a cultivator of immortals. Everyone knows that. After all, the first head of our Jade Immortal Division was Daliang's national teacher. During the period of Daliang, it was almost impossible to become an official in the court without the talent of cultivating immortals.
However, to overthrow a court composed of immortal cultivators is impossible for a mere mortal. This is also the biggest reason why people in the immortal cultivator world speculate that Emperor Gaozu is also a cultivator.
But in fact, after the Great Xia was established, there were still a few monks in the court. After many years of observation, they did not find that Emperor Gaozu was a monk.
Ever since, Zhu Jiuqin, bah! Emperor Gaozu, whether he is a cultivator or not has become an unsolved mystery. "
Su Lin digested these anecdotes and asked: "Suddenly mentioning this should be related to Jingguan, right?"
"Well, in fact, the Jade Immortal Division already had such speculations at that time, but just having such thoughts is disrespectful to Gaozu.
, so no one dares to mention it in public, but this possibility that can be associated at a glance is known to almost everyone. "Lu Zhuyu paused, "Do you still remember the strange things about Jingguan?" "
Su Lin's brain quickly went through the information he had heard before.
The strange thing about the Jingguan in the thirteenth year of Zhenwu was that it was known to all the people in the city, but it was not known from the beginning, but on a certain day, all the people suddenly realized that someone around them was missing.
It seems that the person who killed people and became Jingguan at the beginning was an immortal cultivator, but at a certain moment, that immortal cultivator suddenly became an ordinary person.
When it comes to the rumor about Zhu Jiuqin, there's no guarantee that the people below won't think that way.
"At that time, did Emperor Gaozu issue the last edict to you?" Su Lin asked.
Lu Zhuyu blinked, and shook his head meaningfully: "Because there is no such thing, everyone thinks this guess is not true, unless the process of transforming from a fairy to a mortal is gradual."
"Can a cultivator become a mortal?" Su Lin asked.
"Actually, there is no clear boundary between a mortal and a cultivator, but Tianruo judges whether a person is a mortal because he has clearly 'seen' something extraordinary. As long as he sees it, he is not a mortal." Lu Zhuyu said .
Su Lin: "It's like even though I didn't practice qigong before, but from the moment I saw my sister's dead body, I was no longer a mortal."
Lu Zhuyu nodded in acquiescence.
Su Lin took a deep breath, his thoughts were like a mess.
The more we understand the case of Jingguan, the more bizarre it becomes, but Su Lin's intuition is getting stronger and stronger.
His attention went through the long years, and finally focused on the thirteenth year of the founding of Daxia.
"You have read the diary left by Emperor Gaozu, but you haven't read the golden book, have you?" Su Lin asked.
"The golden book is nothing to look at. The first four books record the life and deeds of Emperor Gaozu, and the last four books don't have any words engraved."
After finishing speaking, Lu Zhuyu frowned, and said vigilantly: "Wait! Do you think you can see the strange content in the golden book that Nascent Soul can only see?"
Su Lin said with a smile: "I don't have such expectations, but the famous Gaozu Demon Book, I still want to touch it with my own hands. I am the kind of person who is very curious about any mysterious things."
