Zhujiazhuang is an ancient village named after its surname. All the male men in the village are surnamed Zhu without exception. Because there are many local masters in the village, Zhujiazhuang is famous in all the villages and has a history of hundreds of years.

The so-called earth master can also be called a wizard who understands the art of geomancer. He can do Feng Shui, set treasure caves, and when building houses or burying people among the people, most people will ask the earth master to help you choose a location. Perhaps because of this, Zhujiazhuang has always lived well.

When Hu Xuanzong arrived in Zhujiazhuang, looking at this village that was obviously built in the form of the Bagua Formation, it can be seen that the person who built this village is a monk who understands Feng Shui and formation techniques. His cultivation level is not too low.

However, after so many years of decline, some of the bases built by the village for many years seem to have been destroyed. However, ordinary people enter the ancient village and find the location of the ancestral hall, which is also a relatively troublesome thing. If you are not careful, you will go wrong.

Looking at the elder of the Tianshi Mansion who had been waiting here for a long time, Hu Xuanzong was also surprised and said: "Elder Haoqing, why are you here?"

Elder Haoqing, who had a bitter face, also said respectfully: "Haoqing had met the elder Xuanzong. Before he became a monk, I was a descendant of the Zhu family. I will not hide it from the elder. The murdered clan leader is the cousin of the old Taoist. Alas!"

"Sorry! Please forgive me for the change!"

As a family that is best at the art of earth masters, it is actually normal for someone to enter the Tianshi Mansion to practice. Moreover, the Tianshi Mansion does not taboo marriage. Many so-called monks are actually families or even offspring.

When he went to the ancestral hall in the village, Hu Xuanzong also said directly: "Elder Haoqing, have you ever had any insights in the previous investigation?"

"No! It should be late at night. In the ancestral hall, only the clan leader and two clan members were killed at the same time. When the clan members appeared, the murderer was no longer sure where he went."

"Is anyone in the village leaving afterward?"

"No! What does the elder mean?"

Facing Hu Xuanzong's inquiry, Elder Haoqing also felt nervous. He knew very well that Hu Xuanzong suspected that there was an insider in the village. If this was the case, I was afraid that Elder Haoqing would also feel that this was really a misfortune in the family!

Just under the recommendation of Elder Haoqing, Hu Xuanzong had met several elders of the Zhu family and did not make too much courtesy. Hu Xuanzong said directly: "Can the corpse of the noble chief restrained?"

"Not yet! When I received the call, the old Taoist rushed over anxiously and told his clan members not to move the body of the clan leader easily. The old master also told him that this matter should be handled carefully and he has never been moved."

"Then the trouble elder, take me to take a look! Siyuan, let the law enforcement team go to various intersections in the village to see, and you can go in with me!"

"Yes, sir!"

After entering the ancestral hall to inspect the dead clan leader's body. Hu Xuanzong keenly showed that the real cause of death of the clan leader was not the knife mark on his neck, but a fatal blow from his back. Such a close-range attack made him suspicious.

Looking at the elder of the Zhu family who came over, Hu Xuanzong said again: "Elder Haoqing, are all the people who build foundations in the village here?"

"No! There are still a few young tribe members!"

"So! Please call all the people who have entered the ancestral hall. I need to take a look!"

"Okay! Si Ming, go and call everyone."

"Yes, uncle!"

A middle-aged elder saluted respectfully and then went to inform the tribe members who were strictly ordered to stay at home. After more than a dozen tribe members rushed to the ancestral hall, Hu Xuanzong said with a sharp look: "Have you all entered the ancestral hall before?"

Faced with the inquiry, the Zhu family seemed a little frowned and seemed unwilling to cooperate. Only Elder Haoqing shouted: "This is Taoist Master Xuanzong, the guest elder of the Tianshi Mansion. Who was invited by the old Tianshi to investigate the case for us? Are you deaf?"

"I dare not! We have all entered the ancestral hall!"

"Are there anyone other than you?"

"No more! When the clan leader had an accident, the elders blocked the ancestral hall, and the idle people were unable to wait to get close!"

After everyone replied one by one, Hu Xuanzong said again: "Siyuan, has the law enforcement team already taken its place?"

"Everyone is on standby on every road in the village!"

"Okay! Elder Haoqing, can you confirm that after the tribe leader had an accident, no one in the village left?"

"It shouldn't be! Si Ming, have you found out before that anyone in the village has left?"

"No! After receiving the instructions from my uncle, I ordered everyone in the tribe to stay at home and wait for the uncle to come and deal with this matter!"

The middle-aged elder was the previous one who replied to Elder Haoqing. At this time, Hu Xuanzong saw the people in the ancestral hall. Although there was nothing unusual, he had some guesses in his heart.

The sleeves shook, and the white flying mouse appeared immediately. Hu Xuanzong touched the other party's little head and said, "Little thing, smell the smell of this room. See if there are any other outsiders besides these people."

When he saw this little flying mouse, an elder standing in the ancestral hall looked a little panicked. Although he was hiding well, he still couldn't escape the observation of Hu Xuanzong's mental power that was facing him.

It’s all monks, so it’s normal to hide emotions. You can’t see the fluctuations in front of you, but you can always see them behind your back, right?

The little flying mouse who rushed into the ancestral hall carefully smelled the various complex smells in the room. Then he rushed to the Zhu family standing in the ancestral hall, as if he was also distinguishing the smell of these people.

When he returned to Hu Xuanzong's hands, Hu Xuanzong said again: "Does there any other person besides them?"

As a result, the little flying mouse nodded squeakingly. Seeing this scene, the elder had tightened his whole body. At this time, Hu Xuanzong still did not expose the other party and continued, "Take me to find him!"

Elder Haoqing, who was standing next to him, also knew very well that everyone who entered the ancestral hall was here. If there were other people entering the ancestral hall but not coming, then it was very likely that they were the hidden murderer. Is the murderer really in the village?

Just as the others were about to follow, Hu Xuanzong said, "Elder Haoqing, let your tribe members stay in the ancestral hall. Before the case was found out, each of them was suspected. Don't think that I'm speaking rudely, because this is the fact.

You all think that the fatal injury of the patriarch is the knife mark on his neck, right? Unfortunately, his real fatal injury was caused by a palm behind his back, which could make the patriarch unprepared, who do you think the murderer would be?"

As soon as these words were said, Elder Haoqing and the Zhu family members who built the foundation were also very shocked. When Hu Xuanzong helped up the already cold body, everyone soon saw that there was indeed a clear palm print on the back of the clan leader.

"Now you still think that I am leaving you in the ancestral hall. Is there any problem? I hope you will supervise each other before I come back. If anyone dares to leave, then I will treat you as the murderer. Have you heard it clearly?"

"Please rest assured, elder, I will look at them!"

"If you let others watch, you should go to the village with me. Your village is not simple!"

Hu Xuanzong, who was talking, patted his shoulders, and the little flying mouse rushed directly to his shoulders and began to squeak and guide the direction. Elder Haoqing, who left the ancestral hall, stared at these tribe members and said coldly: "I hope there is no murderer among you!"

The following words were not said, but these tribe members knew that once the murderer was among them, they committed the serious crime of killing the clan leader and stealing the family's inheritance and cultivation methods, and the consequences can be imagined.

Even if some people feel suspicious for no reason, they all know that this clan uncle who went to the Tianshi Mansion in his early years has similar cultivation to that of the clan leader. Now the clan leader has been killed, and the clan uncle has the right to take over the family affairs.

After all, the Zhu family has been able to pass on its inheritance to this day because the Zhu family has always been a clan member who has entered the Tianshi Mansion to become a monk. With the protection of the Tianshi Mansion and the geography technique inherited by the family, the Zhu family has continued to this day without any inheritance.
