My Lady Is Not A Demon

Chapter 294 The secret of nine years ago!

Two more days passed, and Lord Murong Rudder’s body still could not be found.

It seems that the world has evaporated.

When Chen Mu woke up in the morning, the busy Nanfeng Rudder disciples in the yard were all depressed, and the air was filled with a faint haze, and the atmosphere was solemn.

“Lord Chen Tan is early.”

The burly Hall Master Shi said hello.

Behind him followed Mrs. Shi, who was wearing a gorgeous dress, and the maid next to him.

Da Si Ming’s head hung slightly, his expression indifferent.

The corners of Chen Mu’s lips curled up: “Morning.”

Hall Master Shi seemed to have just eaten breakfast, and there was still some porridge on his upper lip. He looked at the busy disciples in the courtyard and sighed. Rudder is busier than here.”

The other two sub-rudders in Shi Tang’s mouth are Dongfeng Rudder and Beifeng Rudder.

After the death of Lord Murong Rudder, except for Zhu Peiqi of Xifeng Rudder, the two sub-rudders never came to greet them at all, and their indifference made Chen Mu sigh.

This world society really doesn’t talk about the slightest favor and warmth, it’s all for personal gain.

“Is the chief rudder also in Dongzhou City?” Chen Mu asked.

Hall Master Shi seemed to feel something on his lips, so he wiped his sleeves and sneered: “Who knows, few people in this world really know where the chief rudder is, and few people have really seen what it looks like. By the way, I heard that your Lord Chen Tan used to be the Young Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, you should have seen it before.”

Chen Mu shook his head: “When I saw him at the time, I was separated from the master rudder in a room, and even the voice was processed.”

This is the information Ji Dachun revealed to Chen Mu.

He had seen the chief rudder of the World Club back then, but he hadn’t seen the other party’s true face.

Hall Master Shi nodded: “That’s right, except for the rudder masters of the four major rudders and a few people from the general rudder, not many people are qualified to see the true face of the rudder master.”

The man’s tone contained a bit of regret and sarcasm.

Obviously, for a hall master, it is ironic that he has not seen the true face of the chief rudder master.

Chen Mu’s heart moved and suddenly said, “Does Shitang mainly drink alcohol? Why don’t we go to the city for a few drinks and relax.”

Hall Master Shi wanted to refuse, but when he saw the faint smile on Chen Mu’s face, he nodded and said, “Well, I haven’t had any wine in the past few days and I’m very greedy. Today, my brother, I will treat you.”

“Then I have to drink some good wine.” Chen Mu joked.

…

Leaving Nanfengduo, the two disguised themselves and found a restaurant in the city at random.

The name of the restaurant is ‘Guike’.

At this time until the morning, there were not many customers in the restaurant. They were scattered diners, and there were also a few businessmen who were ready to set off.

The two found a position against the railing, with a wide field of vision.

Hall Master Shi did not bring his wife with him, after all, it was drinking, and it was not suitable to bring a wife.

“There is a kind of wine in Dongzhou City that is the most famous, called Yunli Shao.”

Hall Master Shi ordered a small dish at random, asked the buddy to bring the brewed liquor, and said with a smile. “That’s a good one. Drinking in the stomach is like a fire.”

Chen Mu waved his hand and smiled bitterly: “I can’t drink enough, I can’t drink this kind of wine.”

“How can a man say no.”

Hall Master Shi picked up the wine bowl and filled it up, and said quite boldly. “This wine burns people, but not intoxicating.”

Chen Mu had no choice but to take it.

The two of them ate side dishes, drank wine, and casually pulled home. The seemingly happy atmosphere seemed to be old friends for many years.

I don’t know how long it took before Hall Master Shi turned to the main topic: “Lord Chen Tan, just tell me if you have something.”

After all, he couldn’t help but speak first.

The smile on Chen Mu’s lips flashed, and he said faintly: “In fact, it’s nothing, but after Hall Master Shi said something to me that night, I thought you were a good person.”

“Putting is forgiven. Talking about business matters.”

Hall Master Shi smiled and waved.

Chen Mu didn’t round the corners and asked directly: “Just curious, the master of the high altar once told me that you were originally a subordinate of Master Murong Ruo, but why did you suddenly switch to Master Zhu Ruo?”

In fact, Mrs. Shi had already told the reason why the host of Chen Mushi had switched.

But there is something he wants to know.

For example, what mission Murong Ruo was doing, what Cultivation Technique he got, who he killed and so on.

Upon hearing Chen Mu’s question, Hall Master Shi stared at him meaningfully.

After a long silence, Hall Master Shi looked at the hustle and bustle of pedestrians on the street and slowly said, “Is Lord Chen Altar Lord Chen?”

Chen Mu picked up the chopsticks: “There will be many identities in Tiandi that are disguised, right?”

This vague answer made Hall Master Shi laugh.

He grabbed the hip flask and said in a daze: “There are people between the sky and the earth, but people can’t support the sky and the earth. Everyone wants to do something in the sky and the earth. Everyone likes to hide their own greed and show Give enough justice.”

He looked at Chen Mu: “But do you know? Few people in this world are willing to dedicate all of their own for other man-made blessings. The emperor of Dayan, the queen mother, and the hundreds of civil and military officials all have their own interests.”

Chen Mu didn’t know what the other party meant by these words, so he listened quietly.

He found this Hall Master Shi very interesting.

It’s really hard to see through.

The wine condensed into a bunch of drops and fell, looking at the rippled wine bowl, Hall Master Shi laughed at himself:

“You said that the world is peaceful, but there are many people who can’t eat, and many people don’t live. Ruyi Scepter. You said that the world is not peaceful, but there are many people who can eat and live very well.

After all, no dynasty can truly satisfy everyone. On the surface, our world will say that it will benefit the people and create a dynasty where everyone is safe and healthy. But after all, I just want to make myself more moisturized.

The former master Murong Rudder had great ambitions and ideals, he was not a selfish person.

He hopes to create a world where everyone can live a good life, so he joined the Tiandihui without hesitation. But when he joined, as the power in his hand expanded step by step, the original intention changed, and we all changed.

We began to think about how to get more benefits for ourselves.

After all, the anti-thief is the anti-thief. If one day they can go to the capital and sit on the dragon chair, there will be no regrets in this life.

The human heart is wild after all. ”

Hall Master Shi mocked, his eyes reflected in his oral memories and nostalgia.

Chen Mu frowned: “You have been emphasizing that Master Murong Ruo is a good person, but according to some things I know, he doesn’t seem to be as good as the surface.”

Hall Master Shi smiled and said: “I never said he was a good person. The way I worshipped Master Murong Ruo that day, is it very exaggerated in your opinion?”

Chen Mu answered truthfully: “Yes, very fake.”

“Just acting.”

Hall Master Shi generously admitted. “I used to admire Master Murong Rudder. I was really sad when he died, but I would never express my emotions in that way.”

“Then why are you acting?”

“Because I am regarded as a traitor to Nan Fengrud. A traitor cannot have true feelings for the old master. Do you understand this truth?”

The other party’s answer made Chen Mu faintly understood.

But he didn’t like the current topic.

So he couldn’t help correcting: “Is our topic biased?”

Hall Master Shi shook his head, his eyes floated to the street again, with a faint tone: “Two years ago, we received a mission from General Rudder. The mission is simple, go to Wuchen Village to dig a grave.”

“Clean-free village?”

Chen Mu frowned. “Where is this again?”

Shitang said: “A village of the Yiyuan ethnic group, located in the 100,000 mountains, has a total of 196 villagers. They are the most orthodox people of the Yiyuan ethnic group and rarely communicate with outsiders. Blessed by the water god, this village The people are very kind.

The reason why it is called “Wu Chen” is because there was a legend that a certain fairy came to the village and saw that the villagers were simple and kind, and she gave them the pure holy spring. This holy spring can purify people’s hearts, so that the heart will no longer be dusted. ”

Chen Mu silently wrote down the information and asked, “What happened later?”

Hall Master Shi drank the wine in the bowl, and then said: “Nine years ago, something happened that shocked the ruling and the opposition, and then was suppressed.”

“what’s up?”

“A fire broke out in Wuchen Village, and all 196 villagers died.”

“…”

Hearing this, Chen Mu was dumbfounded, and remained silent for a long time.

A fire broke out in a village and all the villagers died, which is too weird. Besides, if it was a fire, how could no one escape.

“Wuchen Village is a village basically isolated from the rest of the world, and few outsiders know it.”

Hall Master Shi sighed. “This incident did not arouse much attention in the end, and coupled with the remarks about controlling affairs in Xichang, few people even mentioned it.”

Chen Mu puzzled: “You have to close the case.”

“It’s over. The final result of the investigation was an accidental fire.” Hall Master Shi sneered.

Chen Mu was speechless for a while.

Can this government be more perfunctory?

“Then why are you digging a grave? Whose grave is digging?” Chen Mu asked curiously.

Hall Master Shi shook the wine in the bowl, and said lightly: “We don’t know the intentions of General Rudder either. As for whose grave is, we don’t even know.

At that time, we were only asked to go to Wuchen Village, and there was another person who accompanied us, who was sent by the rudder.

Is a woman.

It was the Wuchen Village she took us to, and she took us to the grave. ”

Having said this, Hall Master Shi closed his eyes and showed a trace of pain, and his tone became much calmer:

“Later we found a box in the tomb. It was a god box in the legend of the Yiyuan clan. I heard that there was a magical Cultivation Technique hidden in it. This Cultivation Technique can make people-decapitated and reborn.”

Chen Mu took a cold breath: “Decapitated and reborn?”

Chen Mu faintly seemed to have touched the key clues of this case, just a little hint or absolute clue evidence.

Hall Master Shi smiled bitterly: “I didn’t know that at the time, but Master Murong Rudder knew, so he killed the woman sent by Zong Ruo and took the god box as his own.”

“Heaven and Earth will not find out if the general rudder will?” Chen Mu was speechless.

Hall Master Shi shook his head: “No, there was no doubt or punishment for this matter, and there were only a few people who went there, so no one was sent to investigate.”

The dinner table fell into silence again.

Hall Master Shi might have said that he was tired, so he lifted a wine glass to moisturize his throat.

Chen Mu carefully chewed the information given by the other party and muttered to himself: “What happened in Wuchen Village nine years ago…”
