Chapter 2551 An acquaintance commits a crime
"Go and have a look. Although this matter has nothing to do with us on the surface, we are trapped here after all. If you want to leave, you have to rely on people from the black market." said the tall man.
There are only eight of them in the yard, and they have nothing to do with each other, they all come to the black market to trade.
But in this situation, if you encounter something, you will inevitably communicate with each other. It is actually similar to what you say is working together. After all, compared to people in the black market, it is easier for them to reach a tacit understanding.
Seeing that the young man's proposal was supported and supported by two other parties, Zhang Yu nodded without saying a word and said, "Then let's go and have a look!"
After saying that, he glanced at Zhang Yinling and wanted to not let the little girl go. But then he thought that it was safest for everyone to be together. Leaving the little girl alone would be dangerous. So Zhang Yu didn't say anything.
"Let's go!" the old man said, and was the first to walk towards the gate of the courtyard.
The middle-aged man around him took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Do you want to bring our things with you?"
The old man paused and then said, "No need, being able to save one's life is more important than anything else. What can a few magic weapons calculate?"
He was indifferent and continued to move forward. The middle-aged man didn't say much, just kept up. But the middle-aged man's words reminded others.
However, Zhang Yu and others thought that what the old man said made sense. It was more important than anything else to save his life. What can a few magic weapons calculate?
The tall middle-aged man and the man around him also walked towards the door together, and Zhang Yu and Zhang Yinling, the middle-aged man and the young man followed immediately.
The eight people left the yard together and rushed towards the fireworks behind.
I rushed over all the way and passed many pavilions and towers. These places were all antique buildings. I didn’t see them clearly last night. Now I can see that they are indeed the pattern of Taoist temples.
This made Zhang Yu even more puzzled. How could the black market still be a Taoist temple? What is the origin of this Laojun Palace?
Laojun Palace is really big enough, and its scale is no less than that of the Wudang Taoist Temple on Guangming Mountain. On the island, this mountain is not big, but it is really rare to build such Taoist temples.
On the way there, there were no people who really saw them. I don’t know if the black market had arrived, or if the black market suffered too much losses during the tsunami last night, there were not many people.
The fireworks can last for a long time, and Zhang Yu and his team are very fast. After passing through several yards, they finally arrived at the yard where the fireworks are located.
At this moment, there were many people gathered in the yard, at least 70 or 80. Some of these people were wearing black clothes, while others were wearing white robes. It was obvious that they were all dressed in the black market. However, some were wearing Taoist robes, including white Taoist robes and black Taoist robes. However, there were not many people wearing Taoist robes.
Because there were too many people, they formed a circle and a half, Zhang Yu and others were outside and could not see anything. However, everyone's focus seemed to be in the circle, and no one noticed that they were standing at the gate of the courtyard.
There is a reason why Zhang Yu and others did not encounter people in the black market along the way. The main reason is that their location is relatively biased in Laojun Palace, and they are not familiar with the path, so they come naturally slowly. When people in the black market see fireworks, they run away. Except for those who are dedicated to duty and are not allowed to move, they all come over. The locations of these people are much closer to Zhang Yu and others' yard.
Just opposite the circle formed by everyone, there were about a dozen people standing, including the purple-robed man, the Great Guardian, Wei Jianlin, Zhao Minghua, Tan Fuyang, and four blue-robed men. In addition, there was a middle-aged woman who was wearing a Taoist robe, but not a bun on her head, but was tied up, looking like a noble lady. Beside the noble lady, there was a boy standing, the boy was the young master who Zhang Yu and his friends saw when they came to the black market on the first day. Next to the young master, there was a 25 or 26-year-old white-robed Taoist priest and a 33 or 34-year-old black-robed Taoist priest.
In addition to those standing, there were also those lying on the ground. There were seven corpses in total, with two men and five women lying in a row. The seven people were all wearing black Taoist robes.
Before Zhang Yu and the others arrived, Wei Jianlin and the others had experienced the corpse. The injuries on the corpse were all shot out by Buddhist beads. After the judgment of the Great Guardian, it should be the same person who attacked the granary.
The great guardian's face had a serious expression. He kept paced back and forth. After a moment, he came to the noble lady. He bowed and said, "Madam, you are living in this courtyard. I don't know what the situation was going on at the time of the incident."
The noble lady said, "I was sleeping in the room at that time. When I heard the report and knew something happened on the island, I strengthened my vigilance and let them stay together tonight. When the cannon fired, I was sleeping. After hearing this, I got up. When I brought the magic weapon out, I only saw their bodies, and no one else was seen. Jiu Dou came out of the room with his back legs, and you all came one after another."
The black-clad Taoist priest standing next to the young master, named Xue Jiudou. After the noble lady finished speaking, he immediately bowed and said, "Uncle Master, Master's wife is right. I was sleeping at that time. After hearing the cannon, I immediately rushed out with magic weapons to check. I came out one step later than Master's wife. After coming out, I didn't see anyone else, but only saw the bodies of my junior brothers and sisters."
The great protector nodded slightly and did not make any more noise, as if he was thinking about something.
At this time, Tan Fuyang suddenly walked to the side of the Great Protector and said, "Madam, I want to ask, did you move the body when you came out of the room?"
"No." said the lady.
"No." Xue Jiudou also shook his head and said.
"That's strange..." Tan Fuyang turned his head to look at the Great Protector and said, "Senior Brother, although your eyes are inconvenient, you can definitely find that these seven corpses are lying in a row, but they are a little uneven. Logically speaking, they should be scattered at night, with open and secret whistles, so that they will not be caught in one place. But they are all dead in the same place, which is obviously not supposed to..."
As soon as these words were spoken, many people present nodded, thinking that what Tan Fuyang said was very reasonable.
Wei Jianlin then said: "Junior Brother Tan is right. There is definitely a problem with this kind of death together... At this moment, I suspect that the person who killed them is likely the person they know..."
"That's right!" Zhao Minghua stepped forward and said, "It's very likely that this person is known to them, and maybe the status should be quite low. Otherwise, how could the seven of them, as the head disciples, stand in a row obediently, and before making any loud noises, alarming the ladies who were already asleep."
"It makes sense. It makes sense."... Everyone present nodded repeatedly.
