“He is a traitor from Duan Jin Sect, he stole things from the Xie family. The Xie family issued a task to the sect. Murong Shijie, Feng Shixiong, and I took the task and came to Bi Shan City to catch him. Afterward, we sent him to the Dao Prison…”

Mo Hua explained briefly and to the point.

“This person can change his appearance, his whole body of flesh and blood can twist and deform, so you can’t see his appearance clearly. He also cultivates the Duan Jin Sect’s Dun Jin Shenfa, his body turns into golden light, and he runs very fast…”

Mo Hua added.

Gu Changhuai’s gaze slightly narrowed, and he said in a deep voice:

“Stole things from the Xie family…”

“And then, the Xie family was exterminated…”

Mo Hua nodded.

He hadn’t thought of this point before, but now seeing this Duan Jin Sect traitor, he also felt that there was something very suspicious about this.

Moreover…

Mo Hua lowered his voice: “How did he get out of the Dao Prison? Is it…”

Is there a mole in the Dao Ting Si?

Mo Hua didn’t say it explicitly, but Gu Changhuai obviously understood Mo Hua’s meaning, and his expression became even more solemn.

“I will have someone check.”

Gu Changhuai took out the golden waist card of the Dao Ting Si and seemed to send out some message.

Mo Hua’s eyes lit up, “Dao Ting Si waist card can also transmit messages? Then mine…”

“Yours can’t.”

“Why?”

“It’s external.”

Gu Changhuai also spoke briefly and to the point.

Mo Hua was helpless, “Alright…”

Who let the external have no human rights, doing the same thing but receiving two different treatments.

Mo Hua looked at the rouge shop again and asked:

“Uncle Gu, what do we do next? Are we going to catch him?”

Gu Changhuai sipped a mouthful of tea and said faintly:

“No hurry, let’s watch first…”

Gu Changhuai wasn’t in a hurry, and Mo Hua was even less in a hurry.

He was also very curious and wanted to see how Uncle Gu, as a Dao Ting Si Dian Si, usually handled cases.

How to find clues.

How to catch people.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, a hundred battles without defeat.

Suppose…

One day in the future, he is wanted by the Dao Ting Si and chased by Uncle Gu, how to escape from his grasp…

Of course, this is just a supposition.

He is a law-abiding good cultivator in the Qian Xue Zhou region!

He is an honest and law-abiding good disciple of the Tai Xu Sect!

That day won’t come.

But this does not prevent him from learning more and gaining some experience and knowledge.

The cultivation world is very profound and complex.

Not only do you need to learn cultivation methods, but understanding worldly affairs is also a kind of learning.

So Mo Hua sat down patiently again, continued to drink tea, while staring at Gu Changhuai, while staring at the rouge shop, observing the movements of this Duan Jin Sect traitor.

That traitor’s behavior was also very strange.

He went in and out of the rouge shop.

Each time he entered and exited, he changed his face and changed his clothes, seemingly not wanting to attract attention.

But Mo Hua noticed that each time he entered the door, he only had one storage bag on him.

And when he went out, he had three or four storage bags on him.

Mo Hua quietly used his divine sense to stare at him and found that he didn’t go far, just carrying these storage bags and wandering aimlessly nearby.

Bi Shan City was built along the steep mountain terrain.

Beside the streets, there were often scattered and deep, unfathomable cliffs and gullies.

He then threw these storage bags into these cliffs and gullies when people weren’t paying attention.

After throwing, he would come back to get more, and then continue to throw…

Just like… throwing “garbage”…

And looking at it, this behavior of his had been going on for quite some time.

Mo Hua cracked pine nuts, leaned close to Gu Changhuai, as if chatting gossip, and asked in a low voice:

“Uncle Gu, is he… disposing of stolen goods?”

Destroying stolen goods…

Gu Changhuai’s gaze narrowed, “Possible…”

“Then… we catch him now, catch him red-handed?”

Gu Changhuai shook his head.

“He’s been disposing of stolen goods for some time, obviously there are many stolen goods, so we can’t act hastily…”

“Rashly catching him might alert the enemy.”

“If there are still Huo Futuo’s minions, or eyes and ears nearby, once we make a move, we will be detected…”

“We need to wait for an opportunity, avoid detection, and quietly catch him…”

Mo Hua nodded.

Gu Changhuai still wanted to say something, suddenly his expression changed, he picked up the waist card, glanced at it gently, and put it back.

Mo Hua’s eyes were sharp, and he said:

“Found the mole?”

Gu Changhuai looked at Mo Hua, sighed: “No…”

“No?” Mo Hua frowned, “He entered the Dao Prison and was released so quickly, not because of a mole?”

Gu Changhuai shook his head, “His release was in accordance with the rules.”

Mo Hua was somewhat surprised.

Gu Changhuai then said: “I had someone check the files…”

“This person is named Jia Ren, he has no criminal record…”

“The Xie family said the warehouse was stolen, but they didn’t say exactly what was lost. And nothing with the marks of the Xie family’s warehouse, such as spiritual tools, pills, or secret books, was found on this person…”

“The theft case cannot be convicted.”

“As for the Duan Jin Sect…”

“The Duan Jin Sect said they were mistaken, this person is not a disciple of the Duan Jin Sect, the one who stole the Duan Jin Sect’s inheritance and betrayed the Duan Jin Sect is another person…”

“So, he is also not considered a Duan Jin Sect traitor.”

“The only thing that can be convicted is that he was acting as a ‘dark prostitute’ in an illegally privately set up brothel…”

“But…”

Gu Changhuai’s expression was somewhat subtle, “He is a man…”

“So, the Dao Ting Si only imprisoned him for one month on the charges of ‘fraud’ and ‘immorality’, and then released him…”

“There may be some trickery hidden in this matter, but at least on the surface, there is no problem…”

Mo Hua was speechless.

This also works?

He looked again at this “Jia Ren” who changed his appearance repeatedly, criticizing him in his heart.

It would be strange if this person had no problems…

But then came more doubts:

First, the Xie family…

Did the Xie family lose things or not?

If they did, what did they lose?

Did “Jia Ren” steal it?

If they didn’t lose things, why did the Xie family lie?

What is the connection between this matter and the extermination of the Xie family?

Why did the Duan Jin Sect initially say that this “Jia Ren” was a traitor, but later strongly denied it?

What happened inside this?

The Xie family was exterminated, Huo Futuo disappeared…

What is the connection between these matters and Jia Ren?

Mo Hua was thinking when he suddenly saw that Jia Ren’s movement trajectory had changed.

A team of executive officers from the Bi Shan City Dao Ting Si was on a routine patrol and passed by this place, which alerted Jia Ren.

It was inconvenient for him to dispose of stolen goods, so he carried three storage bags and took a quiet path towards the uninhabited mountains on the north side.

Mo Hua glanced at Gu Changhuai.

Gu Changhuai’s eyes indeed lit up, he put down three spirit stones on the table, then got up and left.

Mo Hua estimated a bit in his heart, these three spirit stones also included his tea money, then he nodded contentedly, got up and left, quietly following behind Gu Changhuai.

The back mountain on the north side of Bi Shan City was even steeper.

Jia Ren was very alert.

This time he changed his appearance to look like a short and stout cultivator, carrying a bamboo basket for picking herbs, meandering through the mountain path, and occasionally stopping to look back at the mountain range.

Gu Changhuai and Mo Hua could only follow from a distance.

Fortunately, both of them had very strong divine sense, so it was fundamentally impossible for Jia Ren to escape.

Mo Hua asked: “Uncle Gu, are we going to make a move?”

Gu Changhuai nodded.

“How to catch him?” Mo Hua asked again.

To catch him alive, you need to be fast, accurate, and decisive, without giving “Jia Ren” any chance to react or escape.

Also, don’t give him a chance to send a message…

Mo Hua was quite skilled at catching people, but he still wanted to hear how Uncle Gu, or the Dao Ting Si, generally did it.

If he had a method, he would then compare notes with Uncle Gu to check for gaps and omissions and strive for perfection.

Gu Changhuai’s mind was focused on Jia Ren and Huo Futuo, without any suspicion, and he said calmly:

“Set up traps and lay out formations on the road he must pass, for ambush…”

“Lay shackles on the ground, shackles quenched with poison…”

“Use a sound explosion array in the formation to make him briefly lose consciousness…”

“Take the opportunity to subdue him…”

“Then use spirit locks to seal his four limbs…”

“Preparation must be meticulous, actions must be fast, hands must be ruthless, don’t give him a chance to counterattack, and similarly, don’t give him a chance to commit suicide…”

“This is the basic process of the Dao Ting Si catching people…”

As Gu Changhuai spoke, Mo Hua nodded repeatedly.

Although he had known some things before, the specific methods were quite different, and there were many things he could learn…

After Gu Changhuai finished, he instructed Mo Hua again:

“Remember, the three-chapter agreement, you don’t make a move.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Mo Hua agreed.

Gu Changhuai nodded slightly, then his body flashed, and he caught up to Jia Ren in front after several ups and downs on the rugged mountain rocks.

Mo Hua also quietly followed.

But he only hid to the side, released his divine sense, and watched honestly.

Jia Ren was still walking forward unaware.

His destination was a cliff in front.

Gu Changhuai laid down several Dao Ting Si’s specially made array disks in front of the cliff and buried several shackles underground.

His technique was skillful and his actions were clean and neat.

And the trap was also set up very well.

Mo Hua, with a humble and studious attitude, also silently remembered the methods and habits of the Dao Ting Si in setting up traps.

Everything was prepared, and then Gu Changhuai ambushed to the side.

A moment later, Jia Ren appeared.

He looked around a bit, found no abnormalities, then walked step by step towards the cliff, while taking out storage bags from his body, wanting to throw them down the cliff.

He had only taken a few steps when there was a “clink” sound under his foot, and a burst of intense pain came.

“Not good!”

Jia Ren lowered his head to look and saw a shackle biting his calf like a tiger’s mouth.

There was green poison juice on the shackle.

The poison spread throughout his body along with the blood.

Numbness gradually spread.

Trap, anesthetic!

Jia Ren’s expression changed greatly, regardless of anything, he endured the pain and pulled forcefully, tearing off a large piece of flesh from his calf, breaking free from the shackle, and turning to run.

But just at this moment, the sound explosion arrays in the four corners exploded.

Mo Hua outside the array only heard a subtle muffled noise.

While Jia Ren inside the array felt dizzy and his eyes blurred, his ears were ringing and painful, and for a moment, his divine sense was somewhat sluggish.

His whole body of flesh and blood seemed to tremble due to the sound waves.

But after a moment, one of Jia Ren’s body jade pendants shattered, a burst of clear light flashed, and Jia Ren then came to his senses.

“Dao Ting Si’s sound explosion array?”

Jia Ren’s pupils shook, he reached out from his body and touched out a talisman.

But after a moment, a wind blade cut over, cutting a bloody mark on his arm, and the talisman also fell with a sound.

This wind blade technique was swift and sharp.

Jia Ren turned his head to look and saw Gu Changhuai with a cold face.

Sensing Gu Changhuai’s aura, Jia Ren showed despair.

“Golden Core?!”

Before Jia Ren could do anything else, Gu Changhuai’s body was like the wind, already close to Jia Ren’s body, one hand pinching Jia Ren’s shoulder, spiritual power surging, instantly crushing Jia Ren’s left arm.

Jia Ren was in such pain that cold sweat flowed profusely, his gaze was terrified, and then his right hand shook, several pills from his sleeve, pinched in his hand, he took the opportunity to stuff them into his mouth.

Gu Changhuai pointed his finger, a wind blade, cutting off the tendon of Jia Ren’s right hand.

Jia Ren’s right hand hung down, and several pills slid to the ground.

The pills were sinister green.

Gu Changhuai was experienced and saw at a glance that these were deadly poison pills.

“Want to commit suicide?”

Gu Changhuai’s gaze narrowed slightly, and he suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked up and saw that Jia Ren had already bitten and crushed a tooth, and was about to swallow it into his abdomen.

Poison hidden in a tooth?

A cold light flashed in Gu Changhuai’s eyes, his right hand quickly choked Jia Ren’s neck, and his left hand suddenly punched Jia Ren’s abdomen.

Jia Ren groaned in pain and spat out the hidden poison tooth in his mouth.

He tried to resist and struggle again, but his means were exhausted, and even his methods of seeking death were all thwarted.

At the same time, the anesthetic on the shackle had already flowed throughout his body along with the blood.

Jia Ren knew in his heart that it was bad, but his divine sense gradually became muddled, his eyes closed, and he fainted.

Gu Changhuai took out chains, locked all four of Jia Ren’s limbs, then removed his teeth, carried him up, and threw him behind a concealed mountain rock.

Thus, Jia Ren was captured.

Mo Hua was somewhat stunned watching.

This Uncle Gu was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

He clearly looked very arrogant, with an appearance of not putting people in his eyes.

But his actions were extremely meticulous.

Even with the identity of a Golden Core Dian Si, when catching a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he was still extremely serious and cautious, meticulously planning and allowing no accidents.

He didn’t give the opponent any chance to escape.

He didn’t even give him a chance to commit suicide!

Mo Hua felt greatly benefited.

Throughout the entire process, Mo Hua honestly listened to Gu Changhuai’s words and did not rashly intervene.

At this time, Jia Ren was already subdued.

Mo Hua then came out from his hiding place, ran to Gu Changhuai’s front, looked at the fainted Jia Ren, and said somewhat surprised:

“This Jia Ren actually wants to commit suicide?”

He had never encountered such a criminal cultivator who, once caught, felt there was no way out and immediately sought death.

Gu Changhuai frowned and said in a deep voice:

“I originally just did everything I should do just in case, but I didn’t expect that this Jia Ren would actually rather die than fall into my hands…”

“This then explains…”

Gu Changhuai’s gaze narrowed slightly.

Mo Hua chimed in: “…This person knows a lot, and the secrets on his body are very big!”

Perhaps he was really related to the Xie family extermination case, and it is also very likely that he really has clues about Huo Futuo.

Even, he knows more things…

“Now we interrogate him?” Mo Hua asked.

“Yes.”

Gu Changhuai nodded.

But before that, they needed to routinely search the storage bags.

Gu Changhuai opened the four or five storage bags on Jia Ren’s body that he had originally wanted to discard.

A wave of bloody smell came over.

As expected, they were all “stolen goods” inside.

Some of them were spiritual tools, either ghost-head knives, or bone-picking swords, or some gut-opening blades and halberds, without exception, all stained with blood.

As soon as Mo Hua saw this blood, his mind buzzed, and his eyes turned red.

In a sea of fire, the Xie family cultivators died tragically and wailed, and the ferocious evil-transformed figures once again floated in his mind.

“This is… the blood of the Xie family cultivators.” Mo Hua said with concentration.

Gu Changhuai was startled, “How do you know?”

Mo Hua said: “I see it…”

Gu Changhuai was helpless, “Forget it, just pretend I didn’t ask…”

Besides these blood-stained murder weapons, there were also some “clean” spiritual tools.

There was no blood on them, they seemed not stained with killing karma.

They were just ordinary spiritual tools, not for killing and fighting.

For lighting, for ventilation, for fire aversion, for dust removal, for incense concentration… all were available.

They were some spiritual tools commonly used in the daily life of cultivators.

Mo Hua was somewhat astonished.

“Are these things from the Xie family?”

“Did they kill the Xie family people and rob the Xie family’s property?”

But, after robbing, they didn’t keep it for themselves, why do they want to throw it away now?

Isn’t that robbing for nothing?

It’s impossible that they killed and robbed on a whim.

After calming down, they regretted it, were afraid of being discovered by the Dao Ting Si, and then discarded the stolen goods to eliminate evidence…

That group of criminal cultivators like Huo Futuo killed people like hemp, they are not like this kind of people…

Gu Changhuai’s gaze was cautious, he frowned and pondered.

Mo Hua thought of something, his eyes lit up, “They are not… looking for something?”

Gu Changhuai looked at Mo Hua, “Looking for things?”

“Mm.” Mo Hua pondered, “They exterminated the entire Xie family because they wanted to find something from the Xie family…”

“This Jia Ren, when he first went to the Xie family, also wanted to steal this thing…”

“But he didn’t steal it…”

“And this thing is very important, they must get it.”

“So Huo Futuo then exterminated the Xie family.”

“They searched and brought out all the Xie family’s things to carefully find, and then the Xie family was burned to ashes to eliminate traces…”

“As for throwing these things…”

“It’s because they searched and didn’t find it, so they want to throw away the extra things…”

“And these spiritual tools with the blood of the Xie family cultivators, after killing and exterminating, they also want to throw away…”

“To avoid leaving sinful evidence and being caught by the Dao Ting Si…”

“Or, leaving karma and being calculated…”

If they wanted to forcibly destroy these “stolen goods” with a refining furnace, the movement would be too big and the time too long.

It’s better to utilize the terrain of Bi Shan City and abandon these “stolen goods” in the deep gullies of the cliffs, quietly, so that no one knows.

Genius one live romance novel s23us; Even if they are discovered later, it will be many years from now.

Gu Changhuai was somewhat surprised.

This child’s little head turns really fast, and it seems to make sense.

He thought for a moment, nodded: “This is possible, but it’s just a possibility, don’t set preconceptions first.”

“Before the truth is known, setting preconceptions to consider problems is easy to go astray…”

Gu Changhuai reminded him.

“Mm.”

Mo Hua nodded.

Although he said so, Mo Hua still felt that his guess had several possibilities.

At least, it was a train of thought.

Gu Changhuai flipped through Jia Ren’s storage bag again.

Jia Ren’s storage bag was very ordinary.

Like ordinary cultivators, it contained spirit stones, pills, spiritual tools, and some secret books and jade slips.

But Mo Hua looked and found nothing special.

There were no added seals, encryptions, or erased traces on the jade slips.

Obviously, this Jia Ren was very cautious and didn’t carry important things on him.

Mo Hua looked at all the things again.

These things had evidence, but few clues.

They could only prove that Jia Ren was related to the Xie family extermination case, and it was very likely that he was still helping to scout beforehand and dispose of stolen goods afterward, a kind of deep involvement from beginning to end.

But besides this, there were no other clues.

Especially clues about Huo Futuo.

Since this was the case, they could only interrogate Jia Ren.

Gu Changhuai took out a pill, fed it to Jia Ren, and in less than an incense time, Jia Ren woke up with a frown.

He slowly opened his eyes.

What entered his eyes was Gu Changhuai, that handsome but “detestable” face.

Gu Changhuai said coldly: “Are you Huo Futuo’s person?”

Jia Ren still laughed coldly, with an expression of waiting for death, and did not speak.

Gu Changhuai asked one question after another:

“Where is Huo Futuo?”

“Why did you want to exterminate the entire Xie family?”

“What is your relationship with Huo Futuo?”

But Jia Ren was like a walking corpse, not reacting at all, with an appearance of not caring about life and death.

Gu Changhuai frowned and also lost patience.

In this situation, it was not good for him not to use torture.

Gu Changhuai took out a second-grade “branding iron” torture tool, which had a fire system formation engraved on it, burned red, and when applied to the body, the skin was scorched and the flesh split.

But when the branding iron was applied to his body, Jia Ren was in pain, his facial skin twitched, but he still didn’t say a word.

Mo Hua, who was on the side, couldn’t bear to watch.

“Uncle Gu, yours doesn’t seem to be very useful…”

Mo Hua silently took out his own “iron board”, “How about, let’s try using mine?”

Gu Changhuai was stunned looking at the bloodstained iron board.

Meanwhile, Jia Ren, who was on the other side, heard this clear voice and then realized that there were others here.

But why was this voice so familiar?

And it was very similar to that little brat he hated to death…

Jia Ren struggled to turn sideways to look.

A fair and clear small face, eyebrows like a painting.

Jia Ren, like a walking corpse, instantly “came back to life”, widening his eyes and saying angrily:

“Is it… you?!”
