Chapter 160

After noon, Wu Mei and the others who had been waiting for the disciples who had been dispatched to return finally only waited for two disciples to return.

Wu Mei looked at Yue Yin and Shi Tai, who both looked ugly, and couldn't help asking, "What's going on? Why are you the only two coming back? Where are the others?"

Yue Yin replied first, "On our way back, Lu Qiu was taken back by the people of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, who said that there was something wrong with the Hou Mansion."

The person who came to take Lu Qi away had a tough attitude and a very bad tone, and there was a kind of gloating in his eyes when he looked at her.If it weren't for the fact that Lu Qiu was still her junior, her knife would have cut that man's throat long ago.

The other party clearly felt that their sect's reputation was bad, and wanted to step on it when they caught up.

Otherwise, for a concubine like Lu Qi who is not valued at all on weekdays, how could the Hou Mansion send someone to invite him back to discuss matters?Lu Qiu was arrested this time, and he still doesn't know what he will suffer!
After hearing Yue Yin's words, Wu Mei faintly sensed that something was wrong.

She looked at Shi Tai again, only to see him scratching his head and saying, "Aren't Senior Sister Qiu and Liu Xixi coming back? I left for a while, and the two of them will come back first after they say so?"

When Wu Mei heard this, her face suddenly sank.

If Qiu Qianxue and Liu Xixi really came back, with their foot strength, they should have already returned to the sect.

She looked at Yue Yin and said, "Yue Yin, tell me what happened outside?"

Yue Yin thought for a while, and then told Wu Mei all the news she had inquired from shopkeeper Yang.

Staine was at the side and added some content.

After listening to what these two people said, Wu Mei's face turned pale.

She looked up at Nanny Rong, who also had an extremely ugly expression on her face.The other stewards present also knew that something serious had happened, and all of them looked a little shaky.

After all, Wu Mei has been the Chief Manager for so long. She forcibly calmed down and asked Yue Yin and Shi Tai to go to the Mission Hall to deliver tasks and receive contribution points.

After Zhi left these two people, Wu Mei looked at the fellow disciples present who were like her sisters.

"When something like this happens, what do you think should be done now?"

Originally, the skeleton case that happened in the imperial city had nothing to do with their Wushuang faction.

But someone secretly created momentum, poured sewage on their heads, and produced witnesses and evidence, saying that they intentionally poisoned outside the door.

These people also spoke convincingly, saying that those who are poisoned by this poison will immediately turn into skeletons, or at least be infected with the toxin and spread it to other people. Therefore, skeleton cases occur every day in the imperial city.

Now everyone in the imperial city is in danger, and the western suburbs of the imperial city have become a forbidden area.But those who are related to Tianxia Wushuang faction are like rats crossing the street, being shouted and beaten by everyone and cast aside by the people.

Since they established the Peerless faction, how have they ever received such humiliation and infamy?
Even in Luohuang Mountain in the past, when the magistrate Yan forced them to relocate their faction, they never felt as uncomfortable as they do now.

All eyes met, and everyone fell into silence.Obviously, I couldn't think of any good way for a while.

Jiang Yizhi, who was in charge of managing the Sutra Collection Building, thought for a moment and said, "To untie the bell, the person who tied it must also be tied. Maybe we can send people to find out the truth about the skeleton case and make it public so that the people can know the truth." It has nothing to do with us. In this way, the infamy our sect bears will go away."

Nanny Rong nodded and said, "This is indeed a solution."

Yuan Xiu asked, "Then who should be sent? Now people outside are afraid of people from our sect, saying that they will spread poison to them. Even if this case is to be investigated, it must be investigated quietly."

"In terms of candidates, it is indeed difficult to choose." Wu Mei continued, "What do you think of Yue Yin? She has cooperated with the prison department before and investigated several cases. If she is only investigating cases in private, she may be the most suitable candidate gone."

Han Youniang and Bai Xiuer on the side looked at each other, and they both nodded.

After Song Xinlan, the former steward of the Pill Pavilion, was punished by the sect for colluding with outsiders to secretly sell pills, Han Youniang and Bai Xiuer took over this position and became the two new stewards of the Pill Pavilion.

"I think Yue Yin is indeed a suitable candidate." Grandma Rong also voted in favor.

The remaining four, Du Yun, Ruan Jiao, Jin Cuihua, and Dong Qiang, also nodded when they saw this.

They have also heard of the fame of Yue Yin, the second-generation disciple.

Old people like Zhou Jingshuang and them are the first generation of disciples in the school.

Sun Zi and more than 200 people were recruited after the establishment of the sect on Luohuang Mountain. They were the second generation of disciples.This generation of disciples has mixed qualifications, but they joined the sect at a young age and have a high degree of recognition and loyalty to the sect. They are all available talents in various departments.

Afterwards, the head of the sect recruited Qiu Qianxue, Yue Yin, He Ping, Guang Ming and others one after another, and these were also counted among the second-generation disciples.

After coming to the imperial city to take root, the head of the school once again opened up the sect to recruit disciples. This time, Shi Tai, Liu Xixi, Lu Qiu and others who were included in the sect were the third generation of disciples in the sect.

Now there are nearly a thousand disciples in the sect, plus all the stewards and handymen hired from outside, and many shopkeepers who manage the Wushuang shop, the size of the entire sect has more than 1000 people.

All the women present have witnessed the growth of the Wushuang faction to this point.

This place is like their homeland, and also like their children. Anyone who wants to destroy it or trample on it must first wade through them!

"Okay, I will leave the investigation of the skeleton case to Yue Yin."

Wu Mei finalized the matter, and then said, "There are three disciples who have not returned. Lu Qi returned to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and there should be nothing wrong. It is very likely that Qiu Qianxue has returned to the Qiu family. This news needs to be confirmed. In addition Liu Xixi is left, she has no roots in the imperial city, and she has no acquaintances, so we must send someone to investigate her whereabouts."

Since the establishment of the intelligence department in the sect, the wealth history of all sect disciples has been verified and filed.Therefore, Wu Mei was very clear about the origins of these three people.

"Chou's house, I'm going to go there." Mother Rong took the initiative to take on the task of finding Qiu Qianxue.

Yuan Xiu also continued, "Although we people have martial arts, we have never fought with real swords and guns. The task of finding Liu Xixi can be entrusted to a reliable second-generation disciple."

"I can recommend a second-generation disciple, He Ping. He has been taught a pupil technique by the head of the sect alone, and his strength has greatly increased recently. In addition, this son is also a trustworthy and reliable person." Jiang Yizhi added.

Wu Mei nodded, "Okay, let's settle the matter like this first. Next, I will ask everyone to manage the halls they are responsible for, maintain the daily operation of the sect, and wait for the master to return!"

All the girls nodded one after another, expressing that they were saving money.

After the matter was finalized, Yue Yin, who received the task of investigating the case, somehow thought of He Ping, whose mysterious pupil technique had left a deep impression on her before.

After she found the other party, she didn't expect that he was also assigned a task.

"Looking for Liu Xixi?"

Yue Yin remembered that the reason why she met He Ping on the street last time was because the other party received a call for help from this junior sister and went to provide support.

"That's right." He Ping, who was wearing a loose blue robe, nodded and said, "Junior Sister Liu doesn't have any acquaintances in the city. Logically speaking, she really won't suddenly stop returning to the sect."

"Doesn't Junior Sister Liu know anyone in the imperial city? Where was she from before?" Yue Yin asked curiously.

He Ping paused for a moment. He knew some inside information about this matter, but he didn't know whether he should speak out about Junior Sister Liu's personal affairs.

Seeing his distressed face, Yue Yin guessed that there might be something wrong with Liu Xixi's background, and immediately waved his hands indifferently and said, "It's okay if you don't say anything. I came to you, just want to cooperate with you. The task I received It is to find out the truth about the skeleton case, I remember you have the ability to communicate with the dead, how about it? Can you help me?"

He Ping thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."

The two each prepared some things, and soon gathered in the martial arts square, and then went out to carry out the task.
