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

Chapter 312 The dead are not dead yet

Dressed in black attire, with more than a dozen rag bags of various sizes hanging on his body.

Scrolls and writing brushes were casually inserted in his pockets. The young man in front of him who was thinking casually seemed to be engaged in clerical work.

And looking at the momentum, the story might have to be extended until the Black Mountain Old Demon appears, and Cao An had to step forward to interrupt him.

"This brother is very polite, may I ask, are you from [Qiansi Mansion]?"

When asked suddenly, the young man was also stunned.

Although he is not famous in this Dongzhou, he still has some reputation as he travels all over the country.

Even if this person doesn't recognize him, he doesn't even recognize his clothes?
Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling person, the young man naturally responded with a smile: "I'm Sima Shu of [Qiansi Mansion], this brother is very polite."

As an intelligence practitioner, Sima Shu's ability to see people from all directions is extraordinary.

After the two came in, he noticed that Pan Daxi's body had a faintly dangerous aura. It seemed that their identities were definitely not simple.

Before coming, Cao An also asked Su Se about the situation of the sect, so he naturally didn't talk nonsense.

"Huh? What's wrong? Brother Sima hasn't heard of it?"

"Is this issue important?" Cao An asked strangely.

Of course, it would be another matter to go back and secretly investigate the other party. At least they would abide by the superficial confidentiality rules.

"Of course I've heard of it. "Sanghuai" is a fairy cave, and we [Qiansi Mansion] naturally know it. "

"I need to ask you for a name."

"Sanghuai."

"Really know? Then why are you silent?"

"Because I am thinking about your identity, and your appearance makes me feel familiar."

"Oh? Brother, please tell me."

He didn't know whether it was a person's name or a place's name, so there was no possibility of attacking from the side. Cao An asked in detail through a clear message and asked out his doubts.

Therefore, after introducing himself, Sima Shu did not ask the other party's name. This was their [Qiansi Mansion] rule.

Where have you seen it before...

Sima Shu nodded: "It's very important."

Don’t ask the buyer’s name and reason, respect the other person’s privacy.

But for a while I couldn’t remember the source.

Whether it is Cao An's demeanor or Pan Daxi's momentum, they are obviously not ordinary people. Even Sima Shu himself feels a little familiar.

It's just that I'm currently investigating the clues of [Purple Cloud Valley], so I don't have time to make friends.

When Sima Shu heard this, his eyes flashed slightly and he didn't answer. He just kept staring at him without speaking.

Didn't we agree that [Qiansi Mansion] would keep its guests secret? Why bother exploring identity?

Unexpectedly, the other party came to him directly. Sima Shu immediately made a judgment in his mind that the two of them might be here to buy information.

"Why?"

"Because this information is expensive, I will rip you off based on what you can afford."

"..."

"Ahem, what I mean is that this information is relatively secretive, so you need to be cautious in transactions."

Did this shameless guy speak his mind?
Strangers cheat and kill, while familiar customers risk their lives and kill.

Su Se had introduced to him before that [Qiansi Mansion] had a very good reputation. Looking at this Sima Shu, it was simply shameless.

Fortunately, Cao An came prepared.

Judging from your attitude, don't you just want to add more money? Why don't you just make an offer that you can't refuse?

Cao An smiled slightly: "Looking at Brother Sima, he seems to be very interested in the situation of [Purple Cloud Valley]? How about I tell you the reason for their death in exchange for this information?"

"What! You know the reason for their death!" This time it was Sima Shu's turn to be shocked.

[Qiansi Mansion] has semicolons all over Dongzhou, mainly selling news.

And the largest sect in the area under his jurisdiction is [Ziyun Valley]. Naturally, the experts from all walks of life who are invited to help will not be ordinary people.

With so many experts gathered together, but no specific reason could be found, the young man in front of him actually threatened to know the cause of death? What is this man's background?

Sima Shu recalled it in his heart again.

He knows all the talented people of his own age! Which sect is he a master disciple of?

Unable to understand, Sima Shu did not hesitate and replied calmly: "If brother really knows the cause of death, then I, Sima Shu, will hand over the information about "Sang Huai" with both hands. "

"Okay, it's a deal." Cao An nodded and whispered mysteriously: "I found out that these disciples froze to death."

Sima Shu:......

What's the meaning? Is this kid kidding him?
This is all frozen into an ice sculpture! Even a fool can see that, right? Is this information meant to deceive him?
Sima Shu narrowed his eyes, feeling that he had been tricked. Just as he was about to question him, Cao An spoke again.

"I told the truth. At least I helped you rule out the possibility of poisoning and sneak attacks."

A person becomes an ice sculpture and freezes to death, and then poisoning and sneak attacks can be ruled out? What's the point?
Sima Shu was already confused, so he simply went straight to the point.

"Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it. If it is really useful, I [Qiansi Mansion] will guarantee my credibility and will entrust "Sang Huai" with the information. "

Cao An nodded: "Okay, then I won't go around the bush with you. The ice sculpture behind me is still alive. If you don't have the ability to save him, he will freeze to death soon."

"What!! The person in the ice sculpture is still alive?"

This time, Sima Shu was no longer calm. He couldn't help but raise his voice a bit when he blurted out an exclamation.

Everyone present was a master, but they all heard Sima Shu's voice, and instantly several people frowned.

"That's nonsense. How can people survive when they're frozen like this?"

"The pulse, vitality, and breath have all disappeared. There is no chance of survival. It's just nonsense."

"..."

The refutations sounded continuously, the arguments were very solid, and the judgment that this man was still alive sounded like a joke.

But Sima Shu didn't laugh, and the disciples from Ziyun Valley didn't laugh either and walked over in a hurry.

"Fellow Taoist, you just said that my junior brother is still alive. Is that true?"

Ziyun Valley was naturally the most anxious when they saw their fellow disciples suffering. Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, they had to ask clearly.

Completely ignoring those old guys, Cao An nodded and replied: "Indeed, he is not dead yet, but I'm afraid he won't last long."

"That's nonsense!"

Cao An's stubbornness was once again refuted by the monks around him.

But Cao An didn't bother to pay attention at all. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. What matters is whether Sima's letter is believed or not?
"I believe."

Unprecedentedly, Sima Shu actually sided with Cao An, and everyone around him immediately gave up.

"You actually believe such a ridiculous thing?"

"Otherwise? Do you have any other progress? Can you tell me?"

Sima Shu's identity was obviously unusual. He talked with both hands and directly asked these old guys, making all of them look embarrassed.

Indeed, they have made no progress yet.

"But it's not like that, just listen to such remarks."

They had noticed Cao An's arrival, but you didn't take his pulse or apply acupuncture, so you could make a judgment with just a finger on your brow?

"Where did this young man learn from? Which miracle doctor is he a disciple of?"

Cao An shrugged: "Xianyun Yehe, I have no master, and I have no medical skills. I am just a passerby here."

"What! You don't have any medical skills and you dare to talk nonsense? It's just..."

"No! His words are much more useful than the miracle doctor." Sima Shu interrupted again, his tone even more rude.

Are you saying this because you want to offend all the doctors in the world?

The faces of the alchemists and doctors became even darker, but Sima Shu didn't care. He turned into an afterimage and threw himself in front of Cao An excitedly.

"You are Cao An, right? The great detective of the Daxing Dynasty: Cao An."
