Chapter 83 Salt Crystal
Such a serious thing happened suddenly, and Ning Guang was a little at a loss for a moment. Liyue, who was originally as stable as a rock, seemed to have a crack in it and became shaky, as if it would fall apart in the next second.
It is obviously inappropriate for the ancestor Fashen to remain in Yujingtai, but the evidence collection at the scene has not been completed and cannot be moved at will. Ningguang stood there feeling exhausted both physically and mentally. He wanted to take advantage of this ceremony to change the reputation of Qixing. Who would have thought that such a scene would happen? Ningguang could have guessed how many outrageous comments there would be among the people. Why did the Seven Stars plot to kill the emperor? Why did the Seven Stars Corpse Sufan fail to do a good job in the safety of the emperor, causing the emperor to be killed by a traitor?
But these are still minor problems for Ningguang. The most important thing is the immortal's next reaction. Liyue is a country where gods walk together. Immortals and mortals can live in harmony, and the emperor plays a vital role in it. If this matter is not handled well, it will definitely lead to conflicts between humans and immortals. Fools will look at each other with eager eyes, and the attitude of immortals It's unclear, but Liyue's current situation can really be regarded as one of internal and external embarrassment.
"By the way, there are no taboos!" Ningguang thought of what Ye Lan once mentioned to her, which is said to be a prop for visiting immortals. At this juncture, she must be the first to find the immortal and speak out first, lest subsequent developments make the situation worse. More passive. But the Book of All Taboos is still in Safir's hands, and she is the biggest suspect in this attack.
The attic of Yuehai Pavilion. Safire stood up and stretched. It was time for her to leave, otherwise it would be too troublesome to have Ningguang come over for questioning later.
"Ning Guang will probably ask about the whereabouts of Bai Wu Tao Lu. Just tell the truth. Anyway, the traveler's contact with the immortals is also planned, and it is more objective for her to visit the immortals for you as a neutral party." Safir said. Yelan on the side said, "If Ningguang asks about my whereabouts, just tell her that we fools have no intention of getting involved in this matter, and just let her clean up the mess with peace of mind. By the way, if there is anything useful, just mention it, as friends." , we will do our best to help.”
After saying that, she disappeared, and Zhongli also nodded to Yelan: "The death of Emperor Yan is a big event. As a member of the Rebirth Hall, you must do your own thing well. Please inform Miss Yelan." , the emperor’s ceremony of sending immortals must not be delayed, Zhong will go back to prepare first.”
After saying that, he also disappeared, leaving Yelan alone and messy in the wind. You all acted as Riddlers and made such a big mess, and finally let Qixing wipe your ass? This isn't the end yet, am I still going to take the blame for you? Although she was unhappy in her heart, Ye Lan couldn't refuse. Who knew that this was the emperor's intention? Ye Lan sighed helplessly and walked out of the room. He ran into the worried Ningguang head-on.
"Where's the Dark Priest?" Ningguang was obviously suspicious of Safire and was preparing to arrest him.
Ye Lan shrugged: "Let's go."
"Leaving?" Ningguang's red eyes widened a bit, "Didn't you stop her?"
Yelan smiled bitterly, "Do you want to listen to what you are saying?" But she still explained patiently: "Dark Priest was with me the whole time and didn't do anything. Moreover, she was more surprised than you and me after the incident. We can rule out the possibility that she did it. She said this The impact is a bit wide, and they don’t want to get involved anymore, leaving us to figure it out on our own, and we can ask them for help if we need it.”
Ningguang took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and thought for a long time before saying: "Since it is not the fault of the Dark Priest, it at least proves that this matter has nothing to do with the fools, but this also means that our only clue has been broken." ”
Ye Lan looked at Ning Guang, who was frowning and thinking, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for this Tianquan star. He was deceived by two big guys working together, and had to rack his brains to think of a way out of the predicament. Yelan even suspected that Ningguang could win this time even if she did nothing, which made her even more pitiful. But then I thought about it, the sudden arrival of the emperor could not possibly have the intention of testing Qixing. If she really didn't do anything, she didn't know if there would be a crisis in Liyue Port. She, the Tianquan star, would definitely not be able to do it. .
Thinking of this, Ye Lan could only look at Ning Guang with pity, "Come on!" Lord Tianquan, after climbing over this mountain, you will be the real Yanyue Tianquan.
The two of them walked back together. The matter at Yujingtai had not been settled yet. Ningguang did not choose to return to Qunyu Pavilion, but stayed nearby at Yuehai Pavilion. She had to sit here and could only let her subordinates see her. Only if you can see her, people's hearts will not be in chaos. As an expert in interrogation, Ye Lan has a very in-depth study of trauma, so she also came to the ancestor's slough and began to observe the wounds. Along with her was Baizhu, who had just arrived from Bubulu.
The two of them should have been chatting when they met, but after something like this happened, no one was in the mood. Bai Shu just nodded briefly, which was regarded as a greeting. And the Changsheng on his shoulder looked at the ancestor Fashu on the ground, spitting out the snake letter: "Emperor, it's over like this. It's really sad."
Bai Shu sighed at the ruthlessness of the person who struck him. He couldn't imagine what kind of attack would cause the emperor, who was known for his physical strength, to be hit through the chest with one blow. He didn't even have time to react, and the blow was fatal. There were several other wounds on the body, which were obviously caused by being restrained and strangled by something sharp. Listening to Bai Zhu's analysis, Ye Lan nodded. It was too cruel for a lady like her to see these scenes.
Suddenly, Ye Lan noticed that there seemed to be some silvery-white crystals on the wound on the chest of her ancestor Fa Shang. When she was about to lean over to take a closer look, a soldier from the Qianyan Army ran over.
When Ning Guang saw this Qianyan Army, he also knew that the previous arrest had a result, and asked directly: "What was the result of the arrest?"
The Qianyan Army soldier stood up straight and reported: "Report, Master Ningguang, that suspicious person was very agile and escaped the pursuit of many brothers. When he was finally surrounded..."
At this point he stopped again and stopped talking.
Ning Guang frowned: "What's wrong? You just said it, why are you still hesitant?"
"Yes." The soldier seemed to have made up his mind, and then continued, "The traveler was rescued by the Fools and the Executive Officers."
"Young Master..." Ning Guang rubbed his eyebrows, he was another troublesome guy.
Seeing that she was not in a good condition, Ye Lan said, "I heard that the traveler has a close relationship with the dark animal husbandry. There may be a reason why the young master picked her up."
Unexpectedly, Ningguang shook his head: "I estimate that this is not An Mu's intention, it should be Young Master's personal behavior. An Mi said that the fools don't intend to get involved, which does not mean that Young Master will not get involved. As for his purpose .”
Ningguang quickly cleared up his thoughts: "The All-No-Taboo Rui should be in his hand. It's obvious that he intends to let the traveler take this All-No-Forbidden Rui to find the immortal and tell him everything."
Ye Lan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ning Guang had not lost his cool thinking: "His ideas coincide with ours, but it would be beneficial for us to let them do this."
Ningguang also nodded: "To visit the immortals rashly, we have to control the travelers, and we have to find a way to ask fools for the Taboo-Free Treasure. Moreover, it seems a bit cover-up for us to do these things. If we let them complete it, it can reduce the number of people. Our presence is good for us.”
"In this case, there is one more thing we need to do before the immortal arrives." Yelan remembered Zhongli's instructions.
Ningguang's brows relaxed slightly. She was not afraid of challenges but afraid of unknown small movements. Now that the movements of the Fools were basically clear, the big stone in her heart was relieved a little. Hearing Ye Lan say one more thing, she also turned to look at this subordinate, wanting to hear her opinion.
Ye Lan walked towards her ancestor Fa Sheng and started to check the suspicious things she had discovered before: "The Immortal Sending Ceremony, the emperor is still an immortal after all. Now that the gods have died, our focus should be on tracking down the murderer, but for the Immortal Sending Ceremony, We cannot neglect our work, and we must let the immortals who come to Liyue Port see our attitude. The opinions of immortals and mortals are different, and sometimes their emphasis on rules reaches an almost paranoid level, so I think that in Without affecting the investigation, the ceremony of sending immortals must also be put on the agenda."
Ningguang nodded: "I will send someone to inform the Rebirth Hall about this matter."
"This is..." Yelan's voice attracted the attention of Baizhu and Ningguang. Just now, she felt that the silver-white crystal here was a bit suspicious, but in just a few words, the crystal had a tendency to spread.
If it was subtle at first, it is now visible to the naked eye. Baizhu and Ningguang also cast their gazes, and soon discovered the unnatural crystals on the ancestral magic.
Bai Shu looked at Ye Lan and then at Ning Guang: "Miss Ning Guang, if you guessed correctly, this crystal was left by the murderer. I suggest sending someone to test the composition of this crystal."
Ning Guang had obviously taken this into consideration. Soon Yue Haiting's secretary came over. Bai Shu gently took out a larger crystal from the ancestor's hair and placed it on the plate held by the secretary. .
The secretary left quickly. While waiting for the results, several people watched helplessly at the wound of their ancestor Fashu. The crystals went from being undetectable to visible to the naked eye, and then getting bigger and bigger, and finally filled the entire wound, golden. A piece of white crystal grew out of the chest of the ancestor Fa Shei, which looked sad and unnatural.
Afterwards, several people checked the other wounds and found traces of the wind element. This was left behind by the Storm Emblem, but the only person who knew that Sapphire owned the Storm Emblem was the disappeared Diehlappian. Lin Yi may have made a guess, but at least few people present knew it, so this became evidence to clear Safier's suspicion.
After all, according to intelligence, Safiir does not have the power to master the wind element. Just when several people were at a loss what to do, the test results were sent over by a secretary.
Ningguang asked with a serious face what the result was, but the secretary hesitated and said nothing, and just handed it to Ningguang for her to see.
"Salt?"
