Chapter 1474

"This is..." Chen Rong saw Cecilia in the room.

At this time, Cecilia did not wear a hat and a scarf, because in the room, it would be strange to wear these things again, which made people suspect that there was something fishy.

Seeing the appearance of Cecilia, a "foreign woman", Chen Rong was very confused.

Bai Xiaowen had thought about it for a long time and said, "this is a friend I met when I visited the western regions. She saved my life. We are friends of life and death."

"I see..." Chen Rong looked at Cecilia's eyes, still a little uncomfortable, but he had put down his guard.

Bai Xiaowen continued, "Miss Chen came here late at night for what just happened?"

Chen Rong nodded: "brother Lu, do you have any other clues?"

Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "I'm sorry. I heard an extremely subtle cry and rushed out immediately. However, because I'm not familiar with the house layout and road conditions and it's inconvenient to cross the door, I arrived late. Instead, you and elder Tang came first."

Chen Rong said, "the dead disciple of Shangqing sect is named Zhou Wu, and he is one of the elite disciples who participated in the discussion of Taoism in this Shangqing ceremony. This is the third time that a disciple of Shangqing sect has been killed this month... Because it happened in the inner door of Shangqing sect, it can be called a scandal, so elder Tang doesn't want outsiders to know."

"When Mr. Tang and Miss Chen checked Zhou Wu's body, did they find any clues about the murderer?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Chen Rong shook his head: "younger martial brother Zhou Wu was strangled by Juli and died by breaking his neck. There is no xenogeneic energy left on his body, so it is impossible to infer the origin of the murderer."

"Break your neck?" Bai Xiaowen felt a little surprised. The Friar's battle has always been a duel of Taoism. Even martial artists rely on weapons to use their swords to hurt the enemy. This barbaric technique of directly starting to break the neck is really rare.

"Since there have been successive cases of killing disciples in Shangqing sect, why should we hold a grand ceremony as scheduled? This is not an opportunity for foreign forces to sneak in." Bai Xiaowen asked.

Chen rongdao: "The leader is closed and all matters are decided by the elders. Some elders really want to postpone the grand ceremony, but they are opposed by most elders led by elder Tang. The Shangqing sect has invited experts from all sects of the right way to watch the ceremony, and suddenly suspended the grand ceremony. On the one hand, they lose their trust. On the other hand, when people know the real reason, they will certainly laugh at the Shangqing sect The Ministry is in chaos and loses sectarian face. "

Bai Xiaowen understood that the Shangqing sect was really out of the bad temper of a famous sect. It suffered little and lost face a lot.

"I don't know if Miss Chen found me. What can I do for you?" Bai Xiaowen skillfully tried to trigger the task.

Chen Rong said, "the grand ceremony is coming. I want to prepare for the debate on Taoism. I don't have time to investigate this series of cases. I hope brother Lu can help me and investigate secretly... Because I suspect there are ghosts in the sect and dare not entrust it to other disciples."

Bai Xiaowen was soon prompted by the rules of the spirit world.

"Heroic Branch Mission: [murderer in the dark] on."

"[mission objective: investigate the serial killers hidden in the Shangqing sect and find evidence.]"

"[task difficulty: a]"

"[task duration: none (equivalent to your remaining stay on the standard plane)]

"[task reward: 500 spirit crystals.]

Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes.

The task must be taken, and 500 Lingjing will be rewarded. This is not only an opportunity to deeply participate in the sectarian struggle of Shao positioning surface, but also an important beginning to open up the situation. Of course, it can't be missed.

However, before taking over the task, we should make it clear that the benefits and convenience we should strive for cannot be less.

Bai Xiaowen said, "it's certainly my duty, Miss Chen, to entrust me with such a heavy task. However, I'm not familiar with the inner door of Shangqing sect, and elder Tang said that the inner door is shrouded in the mountain protection array. If I trigger the prohibition, I'll take my life in."

Chen Rong said, "brother Lu, don't worry."

With that, Chen Rong took out a painting scroll and handed it to Bai Xiaowen. "The mountain protection array only triggers the prohibition for people who don't know how to walk. Our internal disciples all know the walking route within the mountain protection array. Now I'll give you the route map."

After a pause, Chen Rong said again, "brother Lu, try not to be found by others, including those in the sect of Shangqing. After finding the clues and evidence, come directly to the water Pavilion in the middle of the lake to find me."

Bai Xiaowen took the scroll and asked, "I'm confident to avoid the eyes and ears of Shangqing disciples. However, the elders of Shangqing sect are powerful. If I don't happen to be near them, I'm afraid it's hard not to be found."

Chen Rong held a light object in his hand and handed it to Bai Xiaowen: "this is the fish pattern clothes given by the master. As long as brother LV wears it on his body, he can not only hide his tracks, but also isolate the body temperature and block most spiritual exploration."

Bai Xiaowen took it over. The eye of evolution swept the fish pattern clothes. After unfolding, it could be seen that it was a cloak.

[fish striped clothing: gold quality. Psionic protection level C +, additional skill: stealth: after wearing the fish striped clothing cloak, it can make the wearer invisible and isolate heat, and greatly improve the wearer's ability to cover his psionic awareness.]

There is a small line after:

"The skill of fish pattern clothes is hidden and needs to consume the aura of Shangqing sect. Therefore, it can only take effect within the range of Shangqing sect mountain protection array."

Obviously, this fish pattern garment has a strong stealth effect, but it has a limited effective area, which is equivalent to a task prop.

After Bai Xiaowen took over the fish pattern clothes, he said, "don't worry, Miss Chen, I'll try my best to help you investigate." then he chose to take the task.

Chen Rong smiled: "brother Lu, pay attention to safety. If you are really found by the disciples or elders of the Shangqing sect, report my name."

When Chen Rong was about to leave, Bai Xiaowen suddenly said, "wait..."

Chen Rong looked back in doubt.

"Miss Chen, do you have any extra fish striped clothes? I have a companion." Bai Xiaowen pointed to Cecilia nearby.

As soon as the smile on Chen Rong's face stopped, he whispered, "brother Lu, this matter involves the reputation of the sect. I can trust only you. As for the western region female Xia, please sit in the quiet room and don't have to participate."

"OK." Bai Xiaowen sent Chen Rong away.

After the other party left, Cecilia whispered, "I always think this Chen Rong doesn't like me. Does she like you?"

"I'm not. I don't. don't talk nonsense."

Bai Xiaowen quickly denied it.
