The next moment, Faith pushed the door open.
Zhu Xuanji stared at Fei Si with deep eyes: "You came quite quickly."
Faith smiled, but the smile was full of bitterness.
Zhu Xuanji's identity was special, and every move of his was under Fei Si's attention. Although the city lord did not specifically explain this matter, how could Fei Si not know what to do? Therefore, when Zhu Xuanji and his three companions left the volcano and headed straight for the Frisbee Workshop, he got the first-hand information.
The Frisbee Workshop and Chen Cha have a close relationship with Feisi, especially regarding the Fire Persimmon Festival. Feisi is in urgent need of mechanical Fire Monkeys, and the more the better.
This concerns the Fire Persimmon Festival that he is in charge of, so Fei Si naturally dare not be careless.
Now, Zhu Xuanji and others went to the flying disc workshop, and he immediately couldn't sit still and ran straight over.
"First of all, I have nothing to do with the birth of Asgard." Feisi said, "Secondly, this originated from a small mistake on my part."
Then, he described in detail how he was concerned about the people's livelihood and worried that the property of the Nandou Dynasty would be destroyed, so he was eager to present treasures to the city lord and recommended the mechanical monkey, and therefore mistakenly believed that Chen Cha was the inventor.
When he discovered this, Chen Cha suggested to him that he could cover up the matter.
Fei Si hesitated at first, but after Chen Cha's persuasion, he agreed.
Chen Cha then found Ning Zhuo privately, asking him to transfer the identity of the inventor to him and give him a large reward.
Ning Zhuo agreed.
The two therefore signed a contract to keep this secret together. (In fact, it was Fei Si who took the initiative to order Chen Cha to do this, and he made it up afterwards.) "That sounds good!" Chi Dun sneered, staring at Fei Si, "But I know you are lying."
Zhu Xuanji frowned even deeper. Using his skills, he was able to determine that many of Fei Si's words were lies, but generally speaking, they were true.
Considering that Fei Si is a Jindan cultivator, and is in a high position of power and is in charge of the daily affairs of Huoshi Xiancheng, Zhu Xuanji is not in a position to reveal the truth.
Zheng Shuanggou looked at Ning Zhuo and sized him up again: "So you are the inventor of the mechanical monkey."
Ning Zhuo quickly bowed and thanked Zheng Shuanggou again for saving his life.
Zheng Shuanggou is a Jindan cultivator who once rescued the remaining members of the Ning family on the top of a volcano. Ning Zhuo, Ning Yong and Ning Chen were among them.
Zheng Shuanggou smiled and said, "Since you remember my life-saving grace, how are you going to repay me?" But he had learned about Ning Zhuo's talent in government affairs and had some intention of recruiting him.
Ning Zhuo smiled bitterly: "As a cultivator of the Ning family, I may not be able to repay you with all my strength, but I will definitely try my best."
Zheng Shuanggou waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it. How could I embarrass a junior like you?"
Ning Zhuo is a cultivator from the Ning family. If Zheng Shuanggou wants to recruit him by force, he will definitely cause friction with the Ning family.
Before, the three families had already discussed joining forces to fight against the City Lord's Mansion. Since Ning Zhuo had made the renovation, it didn't matter whether he came to the Zheng family or not.
After hearing this, Zhu Xuanji looked at Ning Zhuo again and said, "Were you there when the Immortal Palace was born?"
Ning Zhuo: "Yes, I'm lucky enough to have survived."
"Haha. I know that." Chi Dun laughed. He was very happy now that he had caught Fei Si's handle. He said in a careless manner, "After the incident, I interrogated many people. The cultivators of the Ning family were the first batch."
"At that time, I not only used the Heart-Searching Formation, but also carried the Heart-Warning Bell that the City Lord personally gave me."
"It was the alarm bell that alerted me that allowed me to discover the lurking black shadow demon cultivator! After that, I chased him all the way until he escaped into the Fire Persimmon Forest."
Zhu Xuanji nodded and asked the key question: "When did you start producing the Inferno Monkey? Has your design been leaked before? Are there other people who know about it?"
Upon asking, Zhu Xuanji discovered that the Infernape had been sold outside long before the Immortal Palace was born.
On the same day that Ning Zhuo consulted Chen Cha, the two reached a collaboration and began to make mechanical Fire Monkeys and sell them.
According to Chen Cha, he needs to put it on the market, get market response, and then decide how much to invest and what the scale of output will be.
Although Ning Zhuo said that his design drawings had not been leaked, he was just a Qi Refining disciple, and it would be difficult for him to be detected if he was really spied on.
Anyway, this clue is dead.
To find out the specific buyers of each Fire Monkey, the workload was so great that Zhu Xuanji's scalp tingled just thinking about it.
In reality, a mechanical monkey may go through the first hand, the second hand, the third hand...
After investigating to this point, Zhu Xuanji lost interest in the Frisbee Workshop, Chen Cha, and Ning Zhuo.
When leaving, Fei Si said to him, "Actually, Master Zhu, you don't have to go through all the trouble to investigate these things."
"The Fire Persimmon Festival is just around the corner. When that time comes, we will surround that dark shadow demon cultivator."
"If we can capture him alive and torture him, according to the methods of the Divine Constables, the mastermind behind this will definitely surface, right?"
That's what Faith thought.
As the person who handles the most affairs, he has to plan his time carefully every day and pays great attention to efficiency.
Zhu Xuanji's investigation was actually a very inefficient task in his opinion.
The murderer is hiding in the Fire Persimmon Forest. Wouldn't it be a one-step process to catch the real murderer? Zhu Xuanji snorted coldly and looked at Fei Si: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will also be here on the Fire Persimmon Festival."
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
"I really want to meet that black shadow demon cultivator in person!"
Fei Si smiled and said this because he wanted to recruit new players.
As a member of the Divine Constable Department, Zhu Xuanji's combat power is extraordinary. In addition, as a member of the royal family, he must have a lot of valuables on him.
In this way, the probability of hunting down the black shadow demon cultivator has increased significantly.
Zhu Xuanji left the Frisbee workshop.
On the way, Zheng Shuanggou said goodbye to Zhu Xuanji.
Only Chi Dun was left. His idea was actually similar to Fei Si's. He wanted to catch the black shadow demon cultivator at the Fire Persimmon Festival and directly solve the core problem.
Zhu Xuanji sneered: "Do you really think that the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator is the real culprit who blew up the Immortal Palace?"
Chi Dun was stunned: "Isn't it?"
Zhu Xuanji shook his head: "Don't let your inner speculations cloud your vision."
"Based on the current clues, the Asgard was bombed and damaged again, which is why it came into being."
"The explosion was caused by the mechanical monkey. From this point of view, other people can also command this kind of mechanical creation."
Chi Dun paused where he stood. Zhu Xuanji's words did make sense.
"But if it's not the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator, who else could it be?" He pondered over it, and suddenly his body shook, revealing a look of disbelief, "Could it be... Zheng Shuanggou?!"
Zhu Xuanji shook his head again: "Everything is possible."
"Just imagine, if the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator is not the real murderer, but we mistakenly think he is, and thus waste precious investigation time, how will it end?"
Chi Dun nodded: "Master Zhu is right. But isn't the clue to the mechanical monkey broken?"
Zhu Xuanji smiled slightly and looked up at the sky: "Chi Dun, you forgot that there is actually a more crucial clue."
"The one who actually bombed the Immortal Palace was not the mechanical monkey, but the thousand-pound fire spirit."
"To buy such a large amount of fire essence will definitely attract attention and the seller will be very impressed!"
Chi Dun clapped his hands excitedly: "Yes, yes. This is a good clue."
Zhu Xuanji turned to look at him: "So next, I want you to lead me to investigate the markets in various parts of Xiancheng."
"Understood, sir!" Chi Dun's tone became excited when he saw that the investigation was promising.
