Something big happened by the lake?
"What's the matter?" Long Fei Ye asked.
"The two Shadow Guards were killed. Tsui Yun is missing. The murderer's martial arts and swordsmanship are very strong. I heard a cry for help, but when I rushed over, I only saw a figure. It should be a woman! "the Shadow Guard answered truthfully. Tsui Yun was the female mercenary who carried out this mission.
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi looked at each other, then rushed to Yinyang Lake without saying anything.
They didn't find anything at the memorial hall, but there was a result at Yinyang Lake. The murderer should be the murderer of the six women's case.
When Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye rushed over, Xu Donglin had already arrived and was examining the bodies of the two Shadow Guards.
"Your Highness, Princess, the two Shadow Guards were killed by a sword. Their throats were slit!" Xu Donglin reported.
Long Fei Ye squatted down and examined the bodies carefully. "The swordsmanship is really good."
Han Yunxi was shocked. She knew that if Long Fei Ye approved of it, it must be a very good swordsmanship. It must be better than all the Shadow Guards.
"Is Tsui Yun alive or dead?" Han Yunxi asked seriously.
The Shadow Guard shook his head. "When I heard the news and rushed over, I only saw the murderer's back."
In other words, the Shadow Guard couldn't be sure if Tsui Yun was killed and her body taken away, or if she was kidnapped.
"It seems that the murderer only uses a dagger to kill women," Long Fei Ye said calmly.
The murderer had killed the six women with a dagger, and they all died from bleeding from the seven orifices of their heads. Today, the murderer killed the two Shadow Guards with a sword.
Although the sword was not poisonous, judging from the wounds, the murderer's sword must be a good one.
"The murderer fled to the right. I've already sent someone to track him down," the Shadow Guard replied truthfully.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye did not expect that the murderer's martial arts would be so good. This time, they had alerted the enemy. They were afraid that the plan of luring the snake out of its hole could not be used again.
They couldn't find any clues at the memorial hall and if the Shadow Guardians didn't manage to find any clues, they would lose all their clues!
Long Fei Ye checked the Shadow Guard's body again before standing up. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he just said, "Xu Donglin, arrange for a grand funeral."
Han Yunxi looked back at the Yinyang Lake. The surface of the lake was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. It was clean and pure.
The scenery was so mesmerizing that Han Yunxi couldn't help but walk towards the lakeside. Long Fei Ye quickly followed and whispered, "This lake is strange. Don't get too close."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Yunxi stopped abruptly and exclaimed, "It's poisoned!"
Just now, she might have been far away, but now, she was less than a step away from the lake. The detoxification system immediately warned her that there was poison in the water. It was not that the water was poisonous, but that someone in the lake had been poisoned. The detoxification system was very sensitive to human poisons.
The detoxification system did not analyze the poison, but only determined that someone had been poisoned. Han Yunxi activated a deeper examination, but the results were the same. The analysis could not be done in detail.
"Long Fei Ye, there's someone in the lake who has been poisoned." Han Yunxi hesitated and added, "Based on my experience, it should be a corpse!"
A corpse!
Could it be Tsui Yun's corpse? Long Fei Ye immediately ordered the Shadow Guard to go into the water to salvage the corpse.
"It's in the middle of the lake. It should be quite deep," Han Yunxi reminded.
Who knew that the moment the Shadow Guard went into the water, Han Yunxi's detoxification system could not detect the presence of the poison. She said, "Quick, the corpse is sinking."
Soon, the Shadow Guard surfaced. "Your Highness, Princess, there's a whirlpool in the water that's sucking the corpse in! It's Tsui Yun's corpse, that's right! This subordinate can't go down! "
"Go and call Baili Mingxiang over!" Long Fei Ye immediately ordered.
Not long after, Baili Mingxiang rushed over. After she asked about the situation, she went into the water without saying a word. However, not long after, she surfaced as well.
"Mingxiang, what's the situation?" Han Yunxi asked anxiously.
"Princess, can you let Bodyguard Xu go into the water with this servant? That corpse … this servant doesn't dare to touch that corpse!" Baili Mingxiang's voice was trembling.
"I'll go down with you!" Han Yunxi answered without hesitation. She could see that Baili Mingxiang was very frightened.
When Han Yunxi went down, Long Fei Ye naturally had to accompany her. The two of them went into the water together and were protected by Baili Mingxiang in the light circle.
When Han Yunxi approached, Baili Mingxiang grabbed her hand and held it tightly. Although she begged to let Xu Donglin go into the water, she didn't know if she could hold on without someone holding her hand.
Baili Mingxiang led Han Yunxi and the others into the whirlpool. The whirlpool's rotation was very small at first, but it became bigger as they went down.
Han Yunxi held Baili Mingxiang's hand. She calmed down a little and said seriously, "There must be some kind of power hidden under the water to form this kind of whirlpool. The bottom of the water is very deep. It won't be easy to go down. "
Soon, Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye saw Tsui Yun's body. It was protected by Baili Mingxiang in the light circle and did not continue to sink.
But!
When Han Yunxi saw the body, she couldn't help but gasp. Long Fei Ye didn't have much of a reaction. He only ordered Coldly, "Let's go over."
Only then did Baili Mingxiang dare to approach. The two light circles touched each other and merged into one. Tsui Yun's body fell beside Long Fei Ye's feet.
Even though Han Yunxi helped Baili Mingxiang up, her hands were still trembling. She didn't dare to look and immediately led everyone to the surface of the water.
After coming out of the water, Tsui Yun's body was placed by the lake. When Xu Donglin and the Shadow Guard saw it, they were all shocked. Even Xu Donglin didn't dare to approach.
Only Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye surrounded the body and examined it.
For people who studied medicine, corpses were as normal as eating a meal. Han Yunxi wasn't afraid, but she couldn't believe it. This was because the body was soft like a human skin bag. All the bones were gone!
What was the reason for killing someone like this?
In addition to being surprised, Han Yunxi was filled with anger. She stared at the body and didn't move for a long time.
"Is it poisonous?" Long Fei Ye asked.
At this moment, Han Yunxi regained her senses. She took a deep breath and recovered her composure. Then, she began to examine the body seriously.
Han Yunxi checked the wound, and the Detoxification System began to check again.
The Detoxification System's result was the same as the previous one. It only knew that Tsui Yun was poisoned. As for what kind of poison it was, it couldn't detect it at all. Han Yunxi found a dagger wound on the abdomen of the body.
With these two points, Han Yunxi more or less knew what was going on.
She then checked the seven orifices of the body, including the eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. Although the body had been soaked in water and the blood had been blurred, Han Yunxi still detected traces of poisonous blood in the seven orifices of the body. Therefore, like the six women before her, Cui Yu was bleeding from the seven orifices of the body.
Han Yunxi told Long Fei Ye the result of the examination. "It seems that the murder weapon is most likely the Qi Sha dagger."
Han Yunxi was very strict about poisons.
The reason why she said that the murder weapon was the Qi Sha dagger and not the Gold of Ten Thousand Poisons was because the poison on the dagger could be another kind of poison that could be fatal. It was just that the Detoxification System didn't record it and couldn't detect it.
There was only one way to determine whether the Qi Sha dagger was the Gold of Ten Thousand Poisons or not. That was to obtain the dagger and drip it into the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion.
This was the safest and most foolproof method.
Of course, at this moment, Han Yunxi didn't care so much. There were only two things in her mind. The first was to find Gu, and the second was to take revenge! Revenge for Tsui Yun, the Shadow Guard, and the six innocent girls!
Long Fei Ye looked at the body and whispered, "There's only a wound on the abdomen. How did all the bones get pulled out? And the time was so short? "
Yes, the time was very short!
Just now, the Shadow Guard said that he rushed over after hearing that the two Shadow Guards were trying to save her. That meant that Tsui Yun was killed first! After killing Tsui Yun, the murderer had to remove Tsui Yun's bones while dealing with the two Shadow Guards. Wasn't this a little too difficult?
Han Yunxi was silent for a moment, then said with certainty, "Long Fei Ye, the murderer must be a Bone Collector! It must be! "
Only a Bone Collector had the ability to empty the bones of a corpse without destroying it.
"I know why I couldn't detect the poison in the bones of the coffin home!" Han Yunxi said again, "Before the murderer set the fire, she must have removed the bones of the six female corpses! She set the coffin home on fire to destroy the evidence! Today, she threw Tsui Yun's body into the lake to destroy the evidence! "
"She wants to cover up the matter of collecting the bones? What does she want to do with these bones? "Long Fei Ye asked suspiciously.
"Xu Donglin, go and investigate immediately! Secretly investigate all the corpse collectors and bone collectors in Qingchuan Water City, including all the shops that sell bone ornaments! I want to visit them one by one! "Han Yunxi said Coldly.
Corpse collectors were people who specialized in collecting corpses. It was very common.
However, a Bone Collector was a shady profession. The so-called Bone Collector was collecting human bones! Collecting human bones was divided into two categories: collecting the bones of living people and collecting the bones of dead people.
In many evil cults, there would be worship of living people's bones. The bones of living people would be removed piece by piece, and the bones would be used to carve statues for worship.
Collecting the bones of dead people was either stealing unburied corpses or digging up corpses that had already been buried. After a Bone Collector got the bones, there were many ways to sell them. It was better to sell them to wizards for magic, sell them to medical schools for research, sell them to collectors with special hobbies, bone carvers.
From what Han Yunxi understood, many bone collectors would secretly collude with corpse collectors to make it easier for them to find corpses and learn about their condition. They'd also collude with bone carvings and jewelry shop owners to sell the bones to them.
The murderer's Bone Collector ability was so brilliant that he didn't hesitate to set fire to the corpses. He must be an expert in this circle. As long as they asked around, they would be able to catch a few suspects.
Xu Donglin immediately took people to inquire about the news.
Although Long Fei Ye had heard of Bone Collectors, he didn't know as much as Han Yunxi. He was very puzzled. How knowledgeable was this woman?
"The murderer only wants the bones of women. Why must he use the dagger Qi Sha to kill people? Why is that? "Han Yunxi asked puzzledly.
The murderer's martial arts were so good that he could kill people with a casual sword. Why would he use the dagger Qi Sha? Did he have other purposes or to create panic and confuse the investigators?
