Universe Infinite Canteen

No one answered in the temple.

Gu Qingyi was a little disappointed, but at this moment a voice sounded from behind her.

"Xingtong Escort Agency has arranged people to keep watch."

"Ah, really?" Gu Qingyi said in surprise. She turned around and found that the person who spoke was Ma Lu, "How did you know?"

"Because they are an escort agency, they need to ensure the safety of the goods, so they will definitely be careful." Ma Lu said.

"Yes." Gu Qingyi suddenly realized, and then praised, "You look stupid, you don't even know how to play cards, but I didn't expect you to be smart sometimes."

"…………"

Ma Lu didn't know what to say for a while.

And Gu Qingyi had already looked at Shen Zhou again, and said seriously, "Who is your night watchman? I want to talk to him."

Shen Zhou's eyes flashed with surprise, but he still pointed to Chen Er beside him, "He is the one who will keep watch in the second half of the night."

"Did you see He Qisheng go out?" Gu Qingyi asked Chen Er.

Chen Er hesitated and looked at Shen Zhou subconsciously. Gu Qingyi was very alert and immediately spoke again.

"Why are you looking at him when I ask you a question? Shen Zhou is the most suspicious now. If you can't provide evidence to prove his innocence, then he is the murderer of He Shaoxia."

Chen Er could only nod and said, "I saw it."

"Oh." Gu Qingyi was alert again, "Then did you see when he left? Who else went out after him?"

"He Shaoxia went out three quarters ago. No one else left after him."

Chen Er's eyes flickered, and he added, "I think He Shaoxia was killed by the bad guys outside."

Gu Qingyi frowned, "People outside, well, there is such a possibility. Does He Shaoxia have any enemies?"

Her last sentence was asked to the two Songxi disciples.

The two looked at each other. He Qisheng had a high aptitude for martial arts. Although Songxi Sword School was not as good as the top sects such as Shaolin and Wudang, it was also considered a local snake in Qingzhou.

He Qisheng was used to being arrogant and domineering, and he had offended many people, but most of them were minor frictions. The two of them could not think of who would kill He Qisheng.

Besides, it was a remote place, and the rain had not stopped outside. Who would run so far in the rain to kill people, and wait outside the temple until He Qisheng got up at night?

In comparison, the two of them were more willing to believe that it was the people from Xingtong Escort Agency who killed He Qisheng.

After all, in this broken temple, the only one who was capable of fighting He Qisheng was Shen Zhou, and the two had quarreled before.

This was why they were so stubborn about Shen Zhou.

Malu then suggested, "The other party may not be killing for revenge, but may be seeking money. Search He Qisheng's body."

"There is no need to chop off his head for money." Gu Qingyi shook her head. She was more willing to believe her previous judgment that this was a revenge killing.

However, Malu's suggestion to search the body was not wrong. Gu Qingyi was originally planning to search it, but she just reached out and touched the body on the ground and retracted it.

Although she had heard many detective stories, she had never been to the scene or searched for corpses because her father did not allow her to do so. This was her first time.

He Qisheng had lost his head, and his body had been soaked in the rain for a while, so it was cold and wet and felt bad.

"Gu Shenbo," Ma Lu's voice sounded again, "You don't need to do this kind of rough work, I'll do it for you, and you just focus on solving the case and arresting the murderer."

Gu Qingyi liked Ma Lu more and more, and when he heard him say that, he immediately stepped back half a step and said, "Then you do it."

Ma Lu was overjoyed when he heard that.

He was waiting for this sentence, or this opportunity.

Because just now, the golden finger he had been looking forward to for a long time finally arrived.

The extra function numbered 33 was actually activated by the corpse in front of him.

And to really work, Ma Lu had to touch the corpse.

However, the two disciples of Songxi Sword School would definitely not allow an outsider to desecrate the remains of their senior brother at will.

Ma Lu was no match for them, so he had to find another way to team up with Gu Qingyi and temporarily act as Gu Qingyi's Yuan Fang.

No matter where Gu Qingyi's Tieyimen token came from, at least no one questioned her identity as a divine detective, and everyone still treated her as a divine detective.

So when they saw that she agreed to Ma Lu's corpse search, the two Songxi Sword School disciples frowned, but ultimately did not say anything to stop him.

The bet was right! As Ma Lu's palm touched the corpse, a loading light bar appeared on the traveler's bracelet, which was a word "Wu".

Every time Ma Lu touched He Qisheng's corpse, a part of the word "Wu" would be lit up. Of course, it was okay to leave it alone. This thing should light up when it touches, and the longer it touches, the more places will light up.

Until all of them lit up, a new message popped up.

[Ding! The corpse was touched successfully, congratulations on getting the Songxi Quick Sword card pack]

Ma Lu didn't have time to see what cards were in the card pack, so he focused on searching the corpse.

First, he searched He Qisheng's headless body and put the things he found on the ground.

Including a few taels of silver and more than thirty copper coins, a visiting card, two small porcelain bottles, one of which should contain elixirs for practicing martial arts, and the other one contains ordinary healing elixirs, which are considered a must-have for people in the martial arts world.

A handkerchief with a mandarin duck embroidered on the lower right corner. It seems that its original owner should be a woman. In addition, there are some small miscellaneous things.

"Is it gone?" Gu Qingyi asked.

"No more." Malu showed his hands to show that he had nothing to hide.

"This is impossible!" the tall and thin disciple blurted out.

"What's impossible?"

"Brother He is carrying the gift that the head of the sect wants to give to the new leader of the Beggars' Sect. It is a 200-year-old ginseng!"

"Ah," Gu Qingyi muttered, "Could he have guessed it right? It's a robbery?"

Old ginseng is very suitable for internal training. A 200-year-old ginseng can be sold for at least 3,000 taels of silver on the market, and it is in short supply.

If someone knew that He Qisheng was carrying such a valuable thing, it would not be surprising to rob and kill him.

However, Malu's heart moved when he heard this, because when he scanned the nearby ingredients before, he did not see such a valuable thing as a 100-year-old ginseng.

The most valuable one is the 2-star [Kidney-strengthening Wolfberry], and Malu is sure that He Qisheng is within the scanning range.

In other words, He Qisheng no longer had a 100-year-old ginseng before entering the temple, which made Malu's mind vaguely emerge with some guesses.

However, he felt that it was not worth it just for a hundred-year-old ginseng.

At this moment, the beautiful middle-aged woman suddenly said, "I, I... got up in the middle of the night to feed the baby, and I seemed to see Shen Biaotou also went out."
