Daxianguan

Chapter 405 Deadlocked (three more)
Compared with most of the Wu tribe, the funeral director in front of him looks more like a human race. Although he is tall, he is not as exaggerated. Besides, this funeral director is a woman.

Chu Xian has seen Wu clan women before, most of them are rough and unrestrained, but this Wu clan woman in front of him is actually so elegant and weak.

Although she is even a little taller than Chu Xian, but with slender limbs, fair skin and beautiful appearance, she is actually a rare beauty.

Thinking that this woman was the funeral director and would die soon, Chu Xian couldn't help but sighed, but soon found that the black dragon priest seemed even more sad.

Chu Xian asked curiously, and the black dragon priest revealed a reason that surprised Chu Xian: "She is my daughter."

The daughter of the black dragon priest?
Chu Xian really didn't expect it, and soon he knew that the burial priest of the Wu clan had been decided since she was born, and even the priest of the black dragon couldn't change it.

Chu Xian could tell that Priest Heilong loved his daughter very much, but family rules were family rules, no matter how unwilling or reluctant, there was nothing he could do.In fact, most funeral directors of Wu Zu will not perform their duties even when their lifespan is exhausted, because Wu Zu's lifespan is extremely long, and it is almost impossible to accidentally fall.

Some Wu Zu have replaced more than a dozen funeral directors. Generation after generation, the funeral director enjoys a high status, which is the envy of many Wu people, but also, once the Wu ancestor falls, the funeral director must fulfill their mission.

No one can violate it.

At this time, Chu Xian eliminated all doubts about the Black Dragon Priest, even if it was for his daughter, the Black Dragon Priest would not be against the Thirteen Witch Ancestors.

Because once the Thirteen Witch Ancestors fall, the one who will be unlucky will be his daughter.

The Black Dragon Priest can't do anything about this kind of thing, and Chu Xian, an outsider, can only watch from the sidelines.Chu Xian saw the process of the burial priest transferring the body of the ancestor Wu and taking away the power of the totem, and then he knew why the black dragon priest said that it was impossible for the thirteen ancestor ancestors to be poisoned to death.

The totem power of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors is a poisonous dragon.

The poisonous dragon is the ancestor of all poisons, the source of all poisons. May I ask, what kind of poison can kill the thirteen ancestors of witches?
Chu Xian saw with his own eyes the daughter of the black dragon priest, the burial priest of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors, collecting the Witch Ancestor totem. Just after that huge black shadow penetrated into the body of the burial priest, the original body of the Wu Ancestor turned into a rock .

Humanoid rock.

It seems that all the power and divine power of the ancestor Wu were drawn away along with the huge black shadow, leaving only a shell, and this shell turned into a rock.

Obviously what ancestor Wu possessed was not a body of flesh and blood.

Only after the ancestor Wu's totem was removed, the body of the ancestor Wu could be moved. Afterwards, the petrified body of the ancestor Wu was placed in a special wooden coffin.

The Witch Clan attached great importance to this ceremony. During the process, several immortal officials from the Shoufu Pavilion were also present and gave them enough respect and courtesy.

It wasn't until the ceremony was over that Chu Xian found a chance to meet the black dragon priest. At this time, the black dragon priest was talking to his daughter, the burial priest who had absorbed the totem of the ancestor of the witch.

At this time, Chu Xian also knew that the black dragon priest's daughter was called 'Nightingale', and she was very polite. It was said that she had worshiped a human monk as a teacher more than ten years ago, learned human etiquette, and was not to mention able to read and write.

Chu Xian suddenly realized.

No wonder they are different from other witch women.

Looking at Nightingale, Chu Xian always felt that something was very familiar. After thinking for a long time, Chu Xian finally realized it.

It's the opponent's breath.

From the first time he saw the nightingale, Chu Xian had this feeling, but he was attracted by the vision of absorbing the totem of the witch clan at first, so he didn't think about it for a while.

Now, Chu Xian thought of it, and he also thought of another thing, so he asked tentatively: "Ms. Nightingale's master, is the surname Xu?"

Even though the nightingale looked weaker than most of the witch women, she was actually very heroic. At this moment, she was slightly taken aback and glanced at Chu Xian with a look of surprise on her face.

Who is Chu Xian? The Black Dragon Priest had already told her, so she said directly, "Officer Chu Tui knows my master?"

Obviously, Chu Xian guessed right.

"Meeted a few times, we know each other." Chu Xian was not lying, he did know each other, but it was after a few years.

Xu Feng, Chu Xian's friend from that life in his dream, although he has no official position, is a knowledgeable swordsman who likes to travel around and is also very capable.

When Chu Xian makes friends, he doesn't look at each other's background, that's why he becomes friends with people like Neng Xu Feng.

And the person who was killed by the Wraith Wine was Xu Feng. At that time, Xu Feng drank the Wraith Wine and persisted for several months. He found Chu Xian and explained the matter before he died.Without Xu Feng, Chu Xian would not have known that there was such a thing as Wraith Spirit Wine in this world. Although Xu Feng seemed aggrieved when he died, Xu Feng was actually not an ordinary person.

He is a swordsman, a kendo master who uses his sword to become a master.

Naturally, Xu Feng's most formidable skill is swordsmanship, but his swordsmanship is very different. Others are practicing swordsmanship, but he is practicing swordsmanship.

The sword energy exists among the veins, so his sword technique is called "Shenmai Sword Art". Those who practice this sword technique will have a very special breath. That's why Chu Xian feels familiar when he sees Nightingale.

At this time, Chu Xian took another look at Nightingale.

It's not that she is beautiful, because Li Ziwan, Ji Wen, Luo Fei and even Wang Yanchan are all more beautiful than Nightingale. Chu Xian looked at her because Chu Xian remembered that Xu Feng had mentioned Nightingale's name.

At that time Xu Feng said that he had an apprentice named Nightingale, who had great potential, and he had mastered his "Shenmai Sword Art" at a young age, and he was still better than blue.

Xu Feng spoke very highly of Nightingale. At that time, Chu Xian was just listening to it casually. Fortunately, there was a Shenhai library, so even if it was mentioned casually, Chu Xian could still remember it after many years.

Unexpectedly, I would meet Xu Feng's apprentice under such circumstances.

In this life, Xu Feng didn't know himself, and his apprentices also had different fates.

Chu Xian sighed and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

Nightingale bid farewell and left, and she will set off tomorrow, returning to the land of the witch clan with the totem power of the thirteen witch ancestors.After Chu Xian waited for her to leave, he began to question the black dragon priest.

It was still about the cause of death of the thirteen witch ancestors. Chu Xian asked directly this time. There was no fighting, no trauma or internal injury, let alone poisoning. How did the thirteen witch ancestors die?In other words, is there anything else in this world that can kill the Thirteen Witch Ancestors while satisfying the previous conditions.

Since the black dragon priest's suspicion can be ruled out, Chu Xian can ask some questions.

However, regarding this question, Priest Black Dragon pondered for a long time and shook his head: "As far as I know, there is no way to kill the thirteen witch ancestors if the previous prerequisites are met. If you put it in your holy dynasty, it is the first level of Shoufu Pavilion Taoist Immortal, let me ask, who can kill a Shoufu Pavilion Taoist Immortal without making a sound?"

Chu Xian thought for a while, then shook his head.

Obviously, this is also impossible.

But now, this impossible thing happened.

Before leaving, the Black Dragon Priest said something that was still fresh in Chu Xian's memory. He said that not only the Holy Dynasty was investigating, but also the Wu people, and they wanted to know the truth even more.

Chu Xian believed this, because the Wu clan knew better, if they couldn't figure out the cause of the Wu clan's death, they had to use force against the Holy Dynasty even if it was to appease the internal affairs, otherwise the Wu clan would be in chaos first.After all, according to common sense, only the Holy Dynasty can assassinate the Thirteen Witch Ancestors with deliberate deliberations.

Unwilling to use force, but have to use force, not only for the Holy Dynasty, but also for the Witch Clan.

Outside, Xuan Yuegu saw Chu Xian and said, "It's already the second day."

This sentence is a reminder.

Chu Xian sighed, shook his head, Xuan Yuegu understood, and didn't ask any more.

Chu Xian had to record the progress of the investigation every day, and then reported it to the Shoufu Pavilion. At this moment, Chu Xian wrote it according to the facts and handed it over to Xuan Yuegu.

The death of the Thirteen Witch Ancestors carried a strange mystery that made people confused and puzzled, but the consequences caused by this incident were extremely serious.

Anyone can see that there are tricks, conspiracies, and tricks in it, but it is difficult to lift the layer of cloth, and it is impossible to get a glimpse of the truth. Whether it is the Wu Clan or the Holy Dynasty, it seems that they are all being played by the murderer. .

But Chu Xian doesn't believe that there is such a person in this world who can do whatever he wants, turning his hands into clouds and his hands into rain. If he really has this ability, why bother to play these tricks and pretend to be mysterious?

The opponent's purpose can already be determined to deliberately provoke a fight between the two clans, because if it was the fault of the Wu clan, the soldiers of the Wu clan would have already made a move, and they would not wait for the Holy Dynasty to dispatch troops.

On the side of the Holy Dynasty, there is no reason to assassinate the visiting Wu ancestor, that would be harmful but not beneficial.

This point can be mutually confirmed from the confessions of both parties, including Wang Shenling and Yang Ke, although Chu Xian really hopes that Yang Ke will be involved, so that he can use this opportunity to remove the hidden danger of Yang Ke .But in reality, Yang Ke did not participate in it, and even, because of the death of the thirteen witch ancestors, it is almost impossible for Yang Ke to rise again in the future.

May I ask, would Yang Ke do such a thing of digging his own grave?

And who can kill the Thirteen Witch Ancestors silently without poisoning them?
In this world, no one can do it. Lu Yan, the first immortal grand master in the holy dynasty, may be able to do it with the sword of Zhu Shen, but the thirteen witch ancestors must also have sword wounds, and it is impossible to be unscathed.

Chu Xian knew that if he wanted to pinpoint the real culprit, he had to know how the other party killed the Thirteen Witch Ancestors, which was very important.

……

Chu Xian sat in the punishment department, closed his eyes and meditated.

He had thought about it for a long time, but the fog of this big case seemed difficult to clear away. Chu Xian thought, maybe the real murderer was hiding somewhere in Jingzhou at this moment, peeping.

Suddenly, Chu Xian was enlightened, what if the real murderer really didn't leave?If it were me, in order to cause the two clans to fight, I did these things deliberately. I definitely wanted to ensure that the plan was correct, and the most fearful thing was that someone would find out the truth and hinder the plan of the two clans to fight against each other.

Therefore, in all likelihood, the other party is still in Jingzhou.
