Chapter 49
Lei Gan, who was squatting with his face covered, rubbed his face with both hands, took a deep breath and stood up after a while.
Lin Qian was also a little surprised when he looked at the corpse in the pit.
Because this corpse was actually Lei Kun.
Although Lei Kun's cultivation was abolished by Lin Qian, he was once a soul warrior. Although the physical body is not too strong, it is much stronger than ordinary people. The corpse is still intact and not decomposed, so they can easily recognize it.
"No wonder Grandpa didn't find any trace of him. It turned out that he had already been killed." Lei Gan looked at Lei Kun's corpse with a sad expression on his face, "Our family owes them too much."
Lin Qian didn't feel anything. Lei Kun's behavior was because Lei Heng was too doting, arrogant and domineering, and he had no sympathy when he died.
It just surprised him why Lei Kun was killed and buried his body to hide his traces.
Lin Qian squatted on the edge of the pit, looking at Lei Kun's body inside.
Lei Kun's body was pale and bloodless, his eyes were tightly closed, and the clothes at his heart had a pool of blood, which had dried up to dark brown.
"I always feel that something is wrong." Lin Qian looked at the corpse in the pit, thinking carefully about what he had missed.
At this time, Lei Gan also walked towards these outer disciples and asked, "Are you all on this month's inspection mission?"
"That's right!" An outer disciple nodded to Lei Gan.
"Seven days ago, did you see any suspicious people?" Lei Gan asked quickly.
However, these outer sect disciples just shook their heads: "Since I was on this mission, I haven't seen anyone suspicious."
Just when Lei Gan showed a disappointed look, he brought Lin Qian and his disciples to the mountain, and suddenly said, "The night before seven days ago, when I was guarding the mountain, I saw Lei Kun."
The disciple's words caused everyone to look over. Lin Qian also got up and leaned over: "Why, did you see Lei Kun?"
"That night he was in a hurry to leave the sect. Lei Kun is the grandson of the elder Lei Taishang. If my little disciple of the mountain guard dared to stop him, I let him leave." Remember, Senior Brother Lei Kuo also left immediately."
"Lei Kuo?" Lin Qian and Lei Gan looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.
"That's right, after half an hour, Senior Brother Lei Kuo came back. He looked very unlucky. I took another look and yelled at me."
After hearing the words of the mountain guard disciple, Lin Qian pondered for a moment: "It is very likely that Lei Kuo is the one who killed Lei Kun."
In the dense forest in front of the gate of Wanxiangzong, there are disciples of Wanxiangzong patrolling, and it is still the abdomen of the territory under the jurisdiction of Wanxiangzong, so it is difficult for the enemies of Wanxiangzong to penetrate.
Then Lei Kuo, who was mentioned by the disciples guarding the mountain, was the biggest suspect.
"No, Grandpa once called the Shoushan disciple to ask questions, why didn't you say it at that time." Lei Gan thought about it for a while, and questioned the Shoushan disciple with a suspicious look on his face.
The disciple of the mountain guard looked distressed and said, "Elder Lei Heng did ask, and he also asked Lei Kuo to confront me."
"But it's strange, the inner sect Liu Ming and dozens of inner sect senior brothers have all proved that Lei Kuo had been with them that night, drinking and discussing cultivation matters." Speaking of this, the disciples guarding the mountain looked innocent. Who would believe me, an outer disciple, than an inner disciple."
Hearing this, Lei Gan nodded silently. He still remembered when his grandfather came back disappointed and didn't mention a word.
I am afraid that he asked the disciple of the mountain guard. Just like what the disciple of the mountain guard said, he believed Liu Ming's testimony, so he didn't say anything to Lei Gan.
Moreover, Lei Kuo and Lei Kun had no enmity in the past and no enmity in recent days.
Although Lei Kun was not the grandson of Lei Heng, and he didn't shed blood from the Lei family, his surname was Lei anyway.
What reason does Lei Kuo have to kill Lei Kun?
Suddenly, Lin Qian made a lightning strike, pinched the guard's chin, and poured a transparent color potion into his mouth.
Lin Qian's rude means,
The coughing that made the disciples choking on the mountain continued, and it took a long while before returning to normal.
"Sorry, I have to do it, I'll make it up to you later." Lin Qian patted the mountain guard on the shoulder and asked, "The night before the seventh day, tell me your experience of guarding the mountain gate."
Immediately after, the mountain guard disciple was shocked to find that he couldn't control his mouth, and opened his mouth to honestly tell what he saw and heard that night.
Next to Lei Gan and the inspecting outer disciples, they were all dumbfounded.
"Boss, what is this?" Lei Gan came to Lin Qian and asked in a low voice.
"Truth Potion, you can only tell the truth for half an hour after drinking it, and answer any questions you have." Lin Qian also tilted his head and replied in a low voice.
Lei Gan stared at his eyes and suddenly realized: "Three days ago, I couldn't control my mouth, could it be..."
"Put some in your tea to make sure you are sincere with me." Speaking of which, Lin Qian said earnestly, "Because I'm sure, I'll give you a gift when the time comes."
"..."
After the Shoushan disciple finished speaking, Lei Gan clenched his fists tightly: "It really is Lei Kuo!"
The disciples who guarded the mountain who were forcibly poured by Lin Qian with the potion of Authenticity spoke in more detail and were generally the same.
There is only one difference. In terms of time, Lei Kuo left the Vientiane Sect first, and Lei Kun was the sect who left later.
Apparently it was this disciple who guarded the mountain, and there was a bit of a deviation in his memory. Under the force of the Authentic Potion, he recalled it more clearly.
Lin Qian believed very much in the effect of the True Verification Potion, so he could be sure that what the disciples of the mountain guard had said was true.
The behavior of Lei Kuo colluding with Liu Ming just proved from the side that the other party was the murderer of Lei Kun.
However, after the confirmation, it made Lin Qian and the others even more puzzled. Why did Lei Kuo kill Lei Kun?
"Could it be killing people to silence them?" Suddenly, an outer disciple said.
"Murder and silence?" Lin Qian and Lei Gan turned their attention to this disciple at the same time.
"I... I just thought, if the two really have no hatred, this is the only possibility." Being stared at by Lin Qian and Lei Gan at the same time, the disciple stuttered a little.
Lin Qian also felt that it was very possible after being reminded by this disciple.
In the middle of the night, it was obviously impossible for Lei Kuo to leave the sect for no reason. He must have done something.
Lei Heng and Lei Gan felt that Lei Kun's matter itself was wrong, and they were ready to give up and leave things alone.
Lei Kun was dissatisfied with this, and ran away from home with extreme anger.
As for what Lei Kuo might have done, no one could know, so he killed Lei Kun to silence him.
"Boss, it would be great if you didn't kill Lei Kuo." Lei Gan sighed and looked at Lin Qian helplessly.
Lin Qian's face was also a little embarrassed: "The ghost knows that such a thing will happen, otherwise he will give Lei Kuo medicine, and he will know everything, but I was stabbed to death by my sword..."
When Lin Qian was talking to Lei Gan, the other disciples were leaning on this side with their backs to the pit.
No one found that Lei Kun had died tragically in the pit.
Suddenly opened his eyes!
