I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 202: The fire plum pattern comes from Taoism?
  [Fire Plum Pattern] exists. When the Fire Plum King was killed and all the forces were divided, the Flame Bamboo Kingdom secretly hid a legacy.

The [Fire Plum Pattern] is the method of refining the Fire Plum Guard, and the raw material is the fire plum tree that blooms from time to time.

Of course, because it is just a secret book of inheritance.

In the past, refining Fire Plum Guards had a narrow escape, but now with this half-understood inheritance left, it is even more difficult to survive.

According to the records in the secret book of inheritance, a tattoo can be formed by placing a petal on the chest, and then tracing the lines with demon blood, which will then grow and spread.

Killing people in this way looks really weird.

From the guard captain's letter, we learned that there were five informed participants, all of whom were members of the guard.

On ordinary days, if they meet someone who is not discerning and are lucky enough to see the flowers of the fire plum tree blooming, they will take advantage of their position and plant [Fire Plum Patterns] on their bodies through various means.

No matter how wary the other party is, the worst they can do is to subdue them by force and then kill them in disguise.

Anyway, they are from the palace guard, so it is very convenient for them to decide the case themselves. This is how more than ten people were killed before.

But if you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?

This time it is discovered that the man with the plum blossom is a prince, which will cause a big problem. This person will not be easy to deal with!

Standing in the distance, through the hazy fog, the prince said bluntly that the man in the robe did not look like an innocent soul. Even if the guard captain and Yang Sanyong deliberately guided him, their persuasion was useless.

There was no other way but Yang Sanyong went to check it out in person and made up a woman's appearance. Only then did a huge flaw appear, which was noticed by Cao An.

Moreover, Prince Yangjun is not someone who can silence anyone just because they say they will silence him. If he takes action rashly, he may lose his life.

Therefore, the handling methods of Yang Sanyong and others are more cumbersome than before.

Seizing the opportunity to watch the night, the guard captain personally took action and took advantage of his authority to sneak into Yang Jun's house at night, stun him, and then plant the [Fire Plum Pattern].

Afterwards, he approached Yang Sanyong and used the dragon's blood to draw a fake fire plum pattern on himself.

When the doctors saw this situation, they naturally ran to take care of Yang Jun. All he had to do was change his mind, get some symptoms of meridians disorder, and lie on the bed pretending to be sick.

Anyway, two people fell ill at the same time, and their companions helped cover it up, so it would not arouse suspicion.

After a day or two, he asked Yang Sanyong to add a small plum blossom to himself, which looked like symptoms of a spreading curse.

If Cao An didn't come, he was afraid that he would be 'recovered' after a few more days, and then he would be a hero who succeeded in fighting the curse with his strong will.

Not only does he not have to die, he can even be reused by King Yangli, and his future is bright.

Unfortunately, Cao An was still invited, and he saw through Yang Sanyong's flaws at a glance.

“You used your cowardice to create an atmosphere of terror, hoping to make people worry and fearful.

"But the person who volunteered to check it out that day was also Yang Sanyong. He was timid and brave, and his behavior was too contradictory."

The guard captain sat down on the ground and said with some reluctance: "It's all his fault for showing his flaws. If I had known about it, I should have got rid of him in advance, but now it's hurting me."

Hearing what this person said, Cao An shook his head disdainfully: "Do you think your acting skills are very good? Isn't it the first time we met, and you showed your flaws."

"What! When did I show my flaw?" the guard captain asked in shock.

"Of course you were very angry when you spoke.

"I have met the prince, and the [Fire Plum Pattern] is really powerful. He even used golden elixirs, and invited countless famous doctors and saints, but he is still weak and cannot explain it.

"And you? You were crying in pain and sweating all over your head before entering the house, but you were pretending to be the same.

"But as soon as I started to cross-examine you, you were out of breath and your chest didn't hurt. You said seven or eight sentences in a row, and you could even analyze the case clearly with me? Do you think I'm a fool?"

When Cao An is handling the case, even if you are dead, you should still be suspicious, let alone a wounded person who is full of energy, so naturally you will also be the focus of attention.

If you don’t have that kind of acting skills, there won’t be so much nonsense.

Yang Sanyong and the guard captain are both typical bad guys who died from talking too much.

"I deliberately mentioned Yang Sanyong in front of you yesterday, just to test your reaction. You were so agile! You killed him in the middle of the night."

There is no perfect crime scene in the world.

If so, then you might as well consider whether this person committed suicide.

The method of killing Yang Sanyong was actually very simple, that is, to summon a copy of the document, create chaos at the appointed time, and the two took the opportunity to meet in the garden.

Then he told Yang Sanyong that he was under suspicion and the situation was urgent. He had to draw a fake fire plum pattern on him immediately and everyone would pretend to be sick together tomorrow.

Yang Sanyong was naturally convinced and went to the appointment in person, untied his clothes, puffed out his chest and inoculated the other party with syphilis.

At that time, as long as you use a few tricks to plant the real [Fire Plum Pattern], and then use secret techniques to activate it, the person will die on the spot.

Finally, I used pen and ink to fill in the remaining flowers, creating the illusion that the seven plum blossoms are in full bloom and the curse is efficacious, which naturally conceals the truth.

This was the meaning behind the last words "it turned out to be true". It was also at that time that Cao An confirmed that the fire plum pattern was true or false.

Therefore, the warm mark that Cao An touched this morning was not the actual blooming fire plum blossom, but the trace left by the hot air in the dragon's blood seeping into the flesh.

Ying Huorong nodded aside: "Indeed, this person is really stupid to give his heart to others."

And what happens next will be simple.

Cao An used Yang Sanyong's family as bait to catch an accomplice. He could just head to the Blood Spring without interrogation.

Knowing that the matter might be exposed, the guard captain chose to escape without hesitation. He was followed by Ying Huorong, who had been waiting in ambush for a long time, and successfully found the stronghold. Together with the accounts from selling fire plum blossoms over the years, they were stolen and stolen in a small house.

"The important thing is these letters." Cao An picked up the dozen letters again and said to King Yanzhu in a funny way:

"You wrote in the letter: burn after reading?

"The idea is very good, but it's a pity that this person seems to want to use your letter as capital for future blackmail. None of your letters have been burned."

Listening to Cao An's description, the Flame Bamboo King also turned pale.

Keep a letter to blackmail him? You are seeking death by keeping the letter! Now that he's been caught, wouldn't he be dragged into the water with him?

King Yanzhu resisted the urge to curse and argued hard.

"I don't know what letters you are talking about. The people of Daxing are so scheming. Do you think that by forging some letters and paying a few people to frame me, you can provoke disputes in Nanchu? You are wishful thinking!"

This guy is really tough-talking! !

The guard captains had all resigned themselves to their fate, but this one was still holding on.

But think about it, once the murder of the prince of the Allied Powers is confirmed, it will be a war.

This group of fire sheep went crazy, and even the Wild Wolf Army did not dare to fight head-on. The Flame Bamboo Kingdom did not dare to bear the price.

Not only will no country come to reinforce them, they will even be spurned by Quan Nan Chu.

On the other hand, Cao An just snorted with disdain and didn't bother to argue with him.

"King Yanzhu, you seem to have made a mistake. The current situation is not a question of whether you admit it or not, but a question of whether we believe it or not."

Cao An's words made the other party's eyelids jump. Looking at Yang Li's eyes full of murderous intent, his heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was not good anymore.

It was indeed him who did it, but there was nothing he could do about it!

He once stole sheep from the Sheep Kingdom, but unfortunately he could not breed them himself and all the sheep died;
  He also stole Chi Guangguo's technology, but unfortunately a lot of the mines were destroyed and he couldn't even forge a single good product.

The Flame Bamboo Country needs technology but not technology, and it needs talents but not talents.

It was rare to find a fire plum tree, so he used the fire plum blossoms to make red flame arrows, and the power was barely able to rank among the Twelve Kingdoms.

For this fire plum tree, he must do whatever it takes.

For a time, the atmosphere was tense to the extreme, and a battle could break out at any time.

Cao An smiled slightly: "Let's talk about the problem of the Fire Plum Tree later. You first hand over the secret technique inheritance about the [Fire Plum Pattern], and then we can find a way to rescue the prince."

"What! You...I don't know what you said, I didn't!" King Yanzhu still wanted to hold on.

"No? Then let's start a war. We will go to your palace to get it ourselves."

The unabashed threat made King Yanzhu feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

He doesn't want to admit these cases, but there is too much evidence now!

The time, place, and content mentioned in the correspondence are all traceable, and Yang Li has already believed them.

If he continues to quibble, if Prince Yang Jun is really dead, then he will be the murderer, and Yang Li will go crazy and declare war regardless of everything.

Now he either has to hold on to the end, maintain his reputation, and bet that these crazy sheep can't break through his wall.

Or, just hand over the inheritance obediently and let the Yang Kingdom do its best to save people. As long as Prince Yang Jun does not die, there will be room for relaxation.

King Yanzhu hesitated for half a breath.

"I did pick up a piece of inheritance, but I don't know if you want it. I just happened to have it with me, so I'll give it to you."

"..."

You give in so quickly!
  I also didn’t forget to say ‘I picked it up’, which is really shameless.

A half-foot-thick secret book was handed into their hands. Yang Li glared at this bastard fiercely, preparing to save his son first and settle the score with him later.

King Yanzhu could only touch his nose and left dejectedly. He also prayed for help in his heart, hoping to rescue Prince Yangjun, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

Cao An is not very interested in this kind of secret technique.

First of all, the survival rate of refining the Fire Plum Guard is extremely low, and the secret technique is related to the demon blood, which sounds very weird.

Secondly, if this thing needs to be promoted, it must at least be stationed next to the blood spring all year round. He doesn't have that spare time.

But he didn't pay attention to the secret code, but Yang Li came to him with the secret code: "Cao Shuixiu, I need your help."

"Can I help? How can I help?"

"Translate this secret book."

"What? Translation?"

Cao An was startled and looked at the words in the secret book. This is...

"Tao Sect Secret Book?"

Everyone in the Tsing Yi Department looked at each other in confusion. This dignified Huomei inheritance from Nanchu actually came from the Taoist sect?
