Pei Zhongze has full confidence in Zhao Ran, so Pei Zhongze will fight how Zhao Ran says, and wherever Zhao Ran says to hit, Pei Zhongze will hit without hesitation.
Pei Zhongze held out a bronze mirror, and the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram appeared above his head. The Yin-Yang fish in the picture burst out from Liangyi Xuanguang, which struck directly three inches east of the roof beam of the woodshed. At the same time, he showed the light of his bamboo stick and sword, diagonally Pierce the woodshed door.
Zhao Ran was not idle either. Four fireworks talismans and two defense talismans were activated simultaneously in several corners of the woodshed.
Zhao Ran stared at the woodshed closely, and after a while, he shouted: "Increase your magic power!"
Pei Zhongze's real power output suddenly increased, and there was a "buzz" sound. The woodshed in front of everyone seemed to have changed, but it seemed that there was no change at all.
Zhao Ran nodded and said, "Senior brother, you can stop now."
Pei Zhongze's Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram flew back to the bronze mirror, the bamboo sword and sword also stopped, and he looked at Zhao Ran.
Wu Anmin sneered and whispered to his brother: "You are pretending to be a god."
Wu Anxian was equally confused, but he winked, signaling his brother to stay out of trouble.
Zhao Ran ignored the two of them and entered the woodshed side by side with Pei Zhongze. He saw a huge pit exposed under the floor in the middle of the woodshed!
Pei Zhongze was surprised: "Illusion formation?"
Zhao Ran nodded in praise and said: "This very clever illusion formation must be used to cover up this underground cave. The idea of ??this illusion formation is very wonderful. It actually looks the same as before. It is difficult for ordinary people to detect it."
Behind Pei Zhongze and Zhao Ran, Wu Anxian and Wu Anmin, who followed in, both looked bad. Wu Anxian looked more embarrassed, while Wu Anmin stared at the hole with a blushing face, wanting to jump in immediately.
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t care about himself and said to a few people: ¡°Let¡¯s look for the formation disk.¡±
The firewood shed is not big, but it is quite messy inside. There are firewood, groceries, and soil dug out of the hole. Each of the four people was responsible for a fast area, carefully checking everything they could see.
After searching for a while, Wu Anxian and Wu Anmin were the first to get up. They found nothing. Later, Pei Zhongze and Zhao Ran also found no clues.
Zhao Ran was a little worried about the Wu brothers, so he went to their two corners to confirm again. Wu Anmin was very unhappy, and his face that had just calmed down instantly turned red again: "It's just a formation, Taoist priest Zhao is not worried about this. ?¡±
Zhao Ran stared at the piece of wood Wu Anmin was stepping on on his left foot, and slowly reached out and picked it up.
There is no big difference between the wood chips and other wood chips in the woodshed, but in Zhao Ran's eyes, there is a very faint trace of the heaven and earth energy on this wood chip. Zhao Ran observed carefully with his eyes, and then split the wood piece vertically into two pieces. In the inner circle, he happened to see a piece of formation cloud seal.
Wu Anmin stared blankly at the wood chips, his mind going blank.
Zhao Ran said softly: "There are masters of formations among the murderers. If Master Cai of Yuhuang Pavilion had not taught me the way of formations, I would have been deceived."
Pei Zhongze asked: "Is it Master Cai Yunzhong from Yuhuang Pavilion? Junior brother is so lucky. Master Cai is one of the most famous formation masters in Sichuan Province. He is a true disciple of Zhenren Luo. With his guidance, no wonder junior brother can see this flaw."
It was indeed Zhao Ran who got this insight from Master Cai, but if Master Cai were here, he might not be able to see the flaw. After all, Zhao Ran had opened his eyes, but Master Cai did not have such talent. The reason why Zhao Ran said this was to avoid embarrassment to the Wu brothers. As long as it was not an irresolvable feud, he still knew how to accept it as it was.
After a few words, Wu Anmin's face brightened slightly, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. The anger and impatience he had faced Zhao Ran before were no longer visible at all. Wu Anxian had a very good impression of Zhao Ran and apologized sincerely: "Taoist Master Zhao is very capable. I underestimated him. I have offended him many times before. I hope you can forgive me." After that, he took Wu Anmin with him. Bowed deeply to Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran smiled and turned the topic to the wood chips: "This formation disk itself is nothing, just a simple illusion formation. But the original scene is used to cover up the real scene. The idea is very clever. The most important thing is that the other party uses local materials. Temporarily refining the array plate from wood chips in the woodshed, and refining it through objects, without damaging the external appearance of the object at all, and writing the cloud seal directly into the heart of the wood, this skill is really extremely brilliant."
Pei Zhongze asked: "What kind of person can refine this kind of formation disk?" This question is very important, and it is also the reason why Zhao Ran did not rush to follow the tunnel and search for the formation disk.
Zhao Ran thought for a while and said: "Do you need at least a monk or above a mage? Maybe a higher level of cultivation?"
Pei Zhongze was silent for a moment, looked at the hole in the ground, and said to the Wu brothers: "Please guard it.Go to Lujiazhuang and wait for Pindao and Junior Brother Zhao to follow the enemy. "
Wu Anxian and Wu Anmin shook their heads at the same time: "That's inappropriate."
Wu Anxian said: "My brother should go with the two Taoist priests! Although our cultivation level is not high, the more people we have, the stronger we will be."
Wu Anmin also said: "Exactly! Although the enemy is strong, my brother is not afraid. What's more, the Lu family is from my family, how can my brother sit idly by and ignore it?"
Pei Zhongze said: "This place also needs someone to protect it, and at the same time, it needs to be searched and inspected. Besides, Pindao and Junior Brother Zhao are not trying to fight with the enemy, they are just checking for traces. If they have confirmed information, they still need to ask the master of the hall. Take action."
After much talk and hard talk, the Wu brothers were finally persuaded. Zhao Ran got a bright light charm and went down to the cave with Pei Zhongze.
Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze were on guard all the way, twisting and turning in the tunnel for half an hour, and finally walked out from the other end of the tunnel.
The tunnel exit was hidden in a forest and had been blocked by soil. Pei Zhongze and Zhao Ran spent a lot of time to reopen the entrance. After coming out, I looked back and saw that this place was already about two or three miles away from Lujiazhuang.
Pei Zhongze said: "It seems that we need to re-examine the case. The murderer must have been preparing for a long time. Just looking at this tunnel, it did not happen overnight."
Zhao Ran said: "Yes, the murderer did not enter through the main entrance of Lujiazhuang, but sneaked in through the tunnel. After killing the people, he returned the same way. In order to cover up his tracks, he deliberately spared the life of the elder man of the Lujiazhuang and placed him in the woodshed. , but it hurts his mind, not only can it cause misunderstandings, and the inspection of the woodshed is not strict, but it can also ensure that the child's whereabouts are not revealed."
Zhao Ran said as he played a defensive talisman. After a moment, he pointed to the south direction and said: "It has been a while, but the mana fluctuations have not disappeared. The murderer should have escaped from this direction."
So the two of them chased due south.
It had been several days since the incident, and the remnants of the mana were quite thin. If Zhao Ran hadn't been extremely sensitive to the changes in the flow of heaven and earth energy, it would have been a different person, let alone a Huang Guan monk like Pei Zhongze, even a mage. Even the great mage would find it difficult to pursue him.
After chasing him for more than a day, it was not until he left Shehong County that the remnants of the magic power gradually disappeared. Even with Zhao Ran's eyes, he was finally unable to catch it.
At this moment, if the previous investigation methods were followed, there would actually be no clues in the case, but Pei Zhongze should feel lucky that his original idea of ??simply bringing Zhao Ran in to make some merit and take the opportunity to repay his kindness has reaped rewards again.
"Zhao Ran not only witnessed it before traveling, but also personally participated in the investigation of some major cases. His method is uniquely Chinese and extremely powerful. This is case investigation.
Zhao Ran suggested taking the place where the remnants of the mana disappeared as the center and extending for fifteen miles in three directions: west, south and east, and conduct an investigation-style search within this area.
This place is under the jurisdiction of Zhongjiang County, Tongchuan Prefecture. Pei Zhongze was not polite and went directly to Daomen Zhongjiang County Wanxiangyuan and asked He Jianyuan to dispatch manpower.
He Jianyuan did not dare to neglect, and immediately mobilized 30 Taoist priests and 40 pyrotechnics laymen from the courtyard, almost all the Wanxiang Yuan was vacated. At the same time, he also wrote to Zhongjiang County Yamen, asking the county Yamen to send three squads of yamen officials to coordinate the investigation.
Nearly two hundred people were divided into dozens of groups and spread out in three directions at the same time, questioning all households, people, shops and even travelers in the designated area, and investigating any abnormalities on the day of the crime or the next day.
In just two days, after comparing and analyzing a large number of inquiry records from the newspapers, Zhao Ran quickly discovered an important clue: late at night on the second day after the crime occurred, there was a thunderstorm, and farmer Zhang Laoshi was awakened by the thunder. Then I felt anxious and was about to go out to relieve myself. However, when I looked out from the crack of the door to see how big the rain was, I suddenly found a man in black under the eaves of the woodshed in my yard to take shelter from the rain. So I didn't dare to go out and just peeed in the rain. into the house.
Zhao Ran immediately informed Pei Zhongze that, under the leadership of the Taoist priest of Wanxiang Academy, the two came to the home of farmer Zhang Laoshi.
