Chapter 157 Deja Vu Method

At this time, Lan Mengchi also rushed over from Hongya Fort. She glanced at Uncle Tang on the ground, her face sank and she asked, "Who did this?"

"He was the one who killed my master." Niu Dalei roared at Mu Yizhan.

"I said he was already like this when I came over." Mu Yizhan repeated.

Mu Yizhan felt that he was unable to defend himself this time, as if someone was trying to put the blame on him.

"Mu Yizhan, weren't you still in the square just now?" Lan Mengzi asked doubtfully.

Mu Yizhan looked at Lan Mengzi strangely and asked, "No, did you invite me here?"

"You are really good at talking nonsense. Why would Zi invite you to a place like this so late at night? Uncle Tang was obviously hit by thunder magic, and you are Master Thunder." Musheng immediately shouted.

When Lan Mengzi heard what Mu Yizhan said, her face turned slightly red, and she said with confusion, "I, I didn't date you."

Mu Yizhan suddenly felt that he must have been plotted against.

"What's going on? Please tell me in detail what happened." Lan Mengchi said. She actually didn't believe it was Mu Yizhan who did it.

At that moment, Mu Yizhan recounted what had just happened.

"There are no more than five people with thunder abilities in our village. Before we find out, we have to lock them up first," the village chief said at this time.

"There is no need to close him. If he wanted to leave, he would have left early. Arrange for someone to call all the young people in the village to the square, and find and confront the person who asked him to come here." Lan Mengchi arranged.

Soon, all the young people in the village gathered in the square.

Mu Yizhan went over and looked around, then shook his head and said, "It's not here."

"Of course not, because there is no such person." Musheng next to him immediately answered.

"You said that people are not here, but all the young people in Hongya Village are still here," the village chief said.

Now that such a big thing has happened, everyone in Hongya Village has returned to the square.

"Niu Dalei, how did you get to the river?" Lan Mengchi asked.

"We were patrolling the Red Cliff Fort, and a figure suddenly appeared. We couldn't stop shouting for him, so we chased him. We saw him when we got there," Niu Dalei replied.

"That means you didn't see him kill Uncle Tang with your own eyes?" Lan Mengchi asked.

"But he is the only one there." Niu Dalei said immediately.

"I was also deceived, okay?" Mu Yizhan said.

"Those were all your words. Where is the person who asked you to come over now?" Niu Dalei asked.

"According to Niu Dalei, someone deliberately lured them to arrest him." Mu Yizhan thought to himself.

Lan Mengchi then asked the people in the village. No one knew how Uncle Tang got to the river, and no one saw Mu Yizhan kill Uncle Tang with his own eyes.

"Village Chief, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. You should deal with Uncle Tang's matter first. I will take him back to Hongya Castle. I will not let him leave until it is found out that the matter has nothing to do with him." Lan Mengchi said.

.

Since no one saw Mu Yizhan murder with his own eyes, then Mu Yizhan was just a suspect at most, and the village chief couldn't say anything.

"Ah sister, I believe Mu Yizhan did not kill Uncle Tang, there must be someone else." Lan Mengzi said on the way back to Hongya Fort.

"Mu Yizhan, I also believe it's not you, but now there is no evidence to clear your suspicion, so I can only force you to stay in Hongya Castle first." Lan Mengchi said.

Mu Yizhan had only been in Hongya Village for a few days, and there was no enmity with Uncle Tang. Lan Mengchi believed that Mu Yizhan had no reason to kill him.

"Since you believe me, have you ever thought about why this matter is coming at me? I am just an outsider here, what is the purpose of coming at me?" Mu Yizhan said.

"Actually, I have thought about this. The person most dissatisfied with you in the entire Hongya Village is Musheng, but I can't think of any reason for him to kill Uncle Tang to put the blame on you. Uncle Tang is Niu Dalei's master, and he works with you in Hongya Village

Musheng's best friend is Niu Dalei, so Musheng has no reason to kill Uncle Tang." Lan Mengchi analyzed.

While they were talking, the three of them had already reached the small square of Hongya Castle.

Mu Yizhan looked at the rows of large pots on the side. During the day, Lan Mengzi specially brought him here to introduce Uncle Tang and his soup. He didn't expect that he would be killed in just a few hours.

Uncle Tang has been making his soup here all day. Since there are no clues about interpersonal relationships, will there be any clues about what he did today? Mu Yizhan thought as he walked towards the rows of pots over there.

There was still some soup and soup residue in the pot. Mu Yizhan took a spoonful and smelled it.

"Do you suspect there is something wrong with this soup?" Lan Mengzi asked from the side.

"Putting the blame for killing Uncle Tang on me. If Musheng is fine, I can't think of anything in me that deserves others to put the blame on, so I'm wondering if his target is Uncle Tang. Putting the blame on me is not his purpose.

." Mu Yizhan analyzed.

"The target is Uncle Tang?" Mu Yizhan said, Lan Mengchi also took a spoon and poured a spoonful of soup up, smelled it and drank some.

This soup is definitely not poisonous. If it were poisonous, everyone would have died long ago after drinking it for several hours.

"This soup is different from what Uncle Tang made before." Lan Mengchi said after drinking a little.

"What's the difference?" Mu Yizhan asked.

Upon hearing this, Lan Mengzi took a spoon and tried it and said, "There seems to be a difference. It was not obvious when it was hot before, but now it tastes different when it is cold."

"This soup is Uncle Tang's specialty. Every time he makes it, it's always good. A situation like this has never happened before," Lan Mengchi said.

Mu Yizhan heard and smelled the soup, and then immediately turned over the soup residue in the pot with a spoon. He turned all the way over and found something in the soup residue in one of the pots that he had not seen in the previous pot.

.

"What is this?" Lan Mengzi asked, looking at what Mu Yizhan had caught.

Mu Yizhan took a bite to confirm and then said, "They are boiled centipede eggs."

Mu Yizhan had eaten this kind of thing before.

"Centipede eggs? Uncle Tang's soup won't have such things, so who put them in?" Lan Mengchi asked.

"If Uncle Tang had not died, based on his knowledge of his soup, he would have discovered something was wrong when it was cooked. The other party should be afraid that Uncle Tang would not let everyone drink the soup if he found something wrong." Mu Yizhan analyzed.

"This soup is not poisonous, what will happen if you drink it?" Lan Mengzi asked.

"You don't understand this thing. After we drink this soup, the owner of the centipede eggs will come to our door soon. If I guessed correctly, the centipede eggs should come from the West Cliff." Mu Yizhan explained.

"Xiya?" Lan Mengzi couldn't help but give an order after hearing this. The big head on the dome is still fresh in her memory.

"You mean it's related to the people who were in West Cliff that day? Then what is their purpose? Do they want to use the West Cliff Overlord to destroy our village? We should not offend anyone if we stay away from the city." Lan Mengchi said.

This couldn't help but remind Mu Yizhan of Bo City and the Black Church.

"I don't know if you have heard of the disaster in Bo City. The only one who can do such a thing is the Black Church. Their goal at that time was the Holy Spring. I would venture to ask, is there anything here that worries them?

"Mu Yizhan said.
