Chapter 143

Everyone was very sad, and they could have guessed that the situation of the three shops was similar, but Gao Sucong didn't give up, and held on to a glimmer of hope, and jumped off his mount, staring at Cui Yuan viciously: "Where are the goods in our shop?"

Cui Yuan knelt down, "Master, the goods were still there when we left!"

Gao Sucong clenched his fist, and finally let go, raised his hand and patted his forehead, this matter is really a headache!

Liao Sen sat on the back of the horse with a gloomy face and remained motionless. He probably didn't need to take any chances anymore. The situation in the shop was the same. The two families didn't meet well, and it's unlikely that anything good happened to the Floating Cloud Sect.

Now he sees Gao Sucong's teeth itch, why pull them in properly?

Although the three factions have gained some glory from the Song family, but because the son of the housekeeper Liu Lu of the Song family is practicing in the Liuxianzong, the distribution of benefits tends to favor the Liuxianzong.

Clap! Gao Sucong, who was walking back and forth, patted his forehead vigorously, then turned to look at Cui Yuan, who was kneeling, "Who would dare to do such a thing in Star Picking City? Did you leak the news when you left? Think about it, who is most likely to steal the goods?"

The goods in the three shops cost more than a little money, and it is estimated to be several million gold coins if you do any calculations. If you can get it back, you will naturally have to get it back.

Cui Yuan shook his head again and again: "Master Uncle, there is absolutely no news from our side. I really don't know who stole the goods."

Gao Sucong pointed to the scent-seeking bird that landed on a disciple's shoulder, "What's the matter with the scented bait? Didn't you come after the scented bait? Why are there traces of scented bait along the way to lure the scent-seeking bird?"

"This..." Cui Yuan was stunned, cursing in his heart, what the hell is that lunatic Niu Youdao doing, he stole things as soon as he stole them, what is the meaning of leaving clues? He said in a daze: "Uncle, how is this possible? The disciple and others chased all the way here to fight Niu Youdao desperately. I really don't know what happened in the city!"

Liao Sen, who was sitting on the horseback, said: "In this way, the person who left the bait along the way may be related to the person who stole the shop."

Gao Sucong frowned, it was possible, and asked Cui Yuan: "Didn't the bait be given to that Lei Zongkang? Didn't he follow Niu Youdao?"

Cui Yuan: "The bait was handed over to Lei Zongkang by the disciple himself. There is no mistake. He is indeed following Niu Youdao, but I really don't know what the uncle said about the bait along the way! The disciple really doesn't know!"

Liao Sen jumped off his horse and walked up to Gao Sucong: "Could it be that Niu Youdao returned to Star Picking City, and that Lei Zongkang left clues again? But that's not right, how do they know that there is no one in the shop? Could it be that there are accomplices in the city who are paying attention to our shops? This is unreasonable. If we knew about it earlier, how could our people follow? We can't just want to loot several shops from the beginning, right?

This matter was irrational from the very beginning, confusing everywhere, and there were all kinds of possibilities. None of the few people could be sure what was going on, and they were almost confused.

Wu Qianhao walked back and forth with a sullen face, saying: "The time when they fought, the time when the store was stolen, and who left the bait clues. If you find out these two things, the matter will probably have a clue."

Liao Sen: "Understand? Is it important to track down the goods now, or is it important to hunt down and kill cattle?"

Gao Sucong: "Both things are important. Maybe Niu Youdao stole the goods. The two things are going on at the same time. Brother Wu, you take people to the scene to verify. Brother Liao and I will take people to continue chasing the bait. Golden Chi keeps in touch. I wonder what you two think?"

The two nodded, and a group of people got on their horses again and galloped away.

As they walked and walked, the group gradually realized something was wrong, the people who were about to split into two routes were inseparable, and the direction that Xun Xiangniao was going was exactly the direction pointed by Yao Youliang and Cui Yuan, and the routes were highly consistent.

Running out of the Gobi, came to the grassland, and arrived at the foot of the hill, the scent-seeking bird that was about to fly in another direction was temporarily summoned back.

A group of people inspected the scene of the fight, and they found the traces of the fight. As members of the same sect, they could tell at a glance whether the traces were the methods of the disciples of the sect.

Yao Youliang and Cui Yuan couldn't confirm the lives of other people, and they couldn't find any dead bodies at the scene. Even if there were dead bodies, they would probably have been divided up by wild beasts and vultures in this kind of place.

Yao Youliang and Cui Yuan knew that they were also listed as suspects, otherwise they wouldn't have to conduct an on-site investigation to verify their words.

After confirming that the disciples of our sect had indeed fought and fought here, Liao Sen asked the two, "When did the fight happen?"

The two pondered for a while, and gave answers one after another, "It's about five hours from now."

Gao, Liao, and Wu looked at each other. Such a long time was enough for Niu Youdao to go back and forth to the city of picking stars, and both of them would be fine.

Gao Sucong said in a deep voice: "Five hours, you have only traveled so far? It stands to reason that you should have arrived in Star Picking City early, right?"

Cui Yuan hurriedly said: "The two disciples fled before, so how dare they go the same way and circle around from another direction, which wasted time." Pointing in a direction, he made a circle gesture.

Gao Sucong: "Niu Youdao has enough time to commit the crime. If he did it, how would he know that there is no one in the store? After fighting here, he went back to Star Picking City to steal things. He is so brave. I wonder if he knows something. Did you leak the news?"

Cui Yuan began to cry, "Uncle, do you suspect that the disciple betrayed the master and leaked the news? If the disciple really leaked the news, the disciple killed Niu Youdao. How could Niu Youdao let us go?"

Yao Youliang also nodded to the suspicious Wu Qianhao, "Yes, yes, uncle, we escaped by luck, and we really didn't leak any news."

After saying these words, both of them groaned in their hearts. It's fine if the truth of the matter is not exposed. Once it is exposed, the two of them will die!

But as soon as these words came out, everyone's doubts were dispelled. Thinking about it, the person who killed him fell into his own hands. There is no reason to let him go easily. Even the lunatic who dared to kill the envoy of Yan Kingdom would never be afraid of this!

The eyes of the people looking at the two of them eased a lot. They came out to fight for the master, and almost lost their lives. In the end, they were still suspected. The mood can be imagined.

Wu Qianhao patted Yao Youliang's shoulder, "Youliang, don't forget to take it to heart, you know this too, it's already a big deal! I definitely want to ask clearly."

Yao Youliang nodded, and said aggrievedly: "I understand, and I can understand."

Gao, Liao, and Wu went to the side to meet again. After investigation, the killing took place here, and the lure route of the bait also came here. It was completely consistent. How could such a coincidence happen, and Niu Youdao had enough time to commit the crime, so it was difficult to confirm whether it was Niu Youdao who did it.

So here comes the problem, if Cui and Yao leaked the secret, then other disciples leaked the secret. After Cui and Yao fled, some of the other disciples might have fallen into Niu Youdao's hands, and then said something that shouldn't be said.

Whose disciple of the three families leaked the secret? Now that the three families are joining forces, it is not the time to push the blame. It is easy to hurt the peace, and there is no way to push it for the time being. No one is alive, no dead body is seen, and the ghost knows who leaked the secret.

The three of them looked at each other, and the matter was temporarily put on hold.

"This dog is really rampant!" Liao Sen gritted his teeth, at least one of the other two factions was still alive. "I don't think this beast should be called Niu Youdao, but in the future, it should be called Niu Yourobber, a thief's thief!"

Gao Sucong said in a deep voice: "It is very likely that Lei Zongkang has not been exposed yet, and is still leaving clues along the way. It is not appropriate to delay any longer. Keep chasing!"

Wu Qianhao: "It is also possible that they deliberately set a trap to lure us!"

Gao Sucong spread his hands, "Brother Wu, what do you think we should do? How about we forget it and stop here?"

Wu Qianhao rolled his eyes, isn't this talking nonsense? He wanted to stop, but could he stop? Not to mention that the three factions couldn't catch such a person together, and even damaged their disciples. Even the old nest was copied by others, so stop here? Could it be that the dignified Jindan cultivator is really going to end up being demoted back to watch the mountain to guard the gate?

Liao Sen said with bitterness on his face: "Even if it's a sea of ​​swords and fire, we have to jump in! Keep chasing, as long as we catch Niu Youdao, there is still a possibility to find back what we lost, at least we can make amends. If we can't catch it, everyone will be blessed!"

If they knew that the things in the three shops had been sold cheaply by Niu Youdao, the three of them would probably vomit blood with anger. It would be impossible to find those sects of Lingzong to redeem the lost things at the original low price.

"These mounts need to maintain the strength of your feet to transfer, you two should walk back slowly!"

Yao Youliang and Cui Yuan were seriously injured, and it was useless to carry them, so they were thrown down on the spot.

After watching a group of people gallop away, the two looked at each other, "Ah!" They both heaved a sigh of relief, and finally got past the fool.

Just looking around again, the two were quite speechless, and they came back after arguing for a long time. The road ahead was gone for nothing, and they had to go back and walk again.

The stars are shining brightly, and the two continue to go down the moon together...

It's dawn, the sun is rising, the station, a large hub station.

Niu Youdao and others who came here in a hurry rushed into the post station with their horses, and jumped off the horses one after another. The twelve horses were panting heavily.

The party ordered something hot to eat and drink at the post station, and usually the post station will also do business with guests.

Others ate and used it, and Hei Mudan went to find the postmaster under Niu Youdao's gesture, and asked the postmaster to change the horse.

Although they changed rides along the way, the physical strength of the horses was limited after all. After tossing all night, it was really unbearable, but the party didn't want to stop, so they could only change horses.

There are also some small post stations on the way, but the small post stations will not raise so many horses. This kind of large post station is still no problem. The horses in the stables are full of food and drink, and the horses are placed there.

But how can the horses at the post station be exchanged with outsiders, they are all official goods, even if you buy them, they will not be willing to buy them. However, Black Peony pushed a hundred gold coins in front of the postmaster, and everything was settled. It was just a replacement, and the post station would not lose a horse, and the horses were all good horses, but they were tired and could be recovered by raising them.

"This is a secret messenger from the imperial court. I have business to do. Go and help them change the horses!" The postmaster asked a postman to come over, and asked the postman to bring black peony to change the horse for any reason.

After a short stay, they changed horses, rushed out of the station again, and galloped away.

A postman who was sweeping the floor outside the fence with a broom lowered his head. After Niu Youdao and others passed by, he looked back again, then picked up the broom and walked quickly back to the inn.
