Chapter 97: The Second Time



Vampire? Tianxia Guihuo is a vampire?

Zhang Yuanqing's anger was suddenly stuck, and he did not question whether the information given by Zhao Chenghuang was true, because the other party's character was a werewolf, the natural enemy of vampires.

The werewolf character's skills seem to be related to the sense of smell, and he was able to identify David's identity as a vampire from the smell of the pottery jar.

"David is a vampire." Zhang Yuanqing immediately thought of the parchment that recorded the history of the Lance family. "The Lance family is a witch family, and witches have extremely yin constitutions. Their blood must be rich in spiritual materials. They are also elves in the dark night. So, David is lurking in the Lance family, is he also targeting the witches underground?"

Zhao Chenghuang suddenly realized and said excitedly: "All the clues in the room are useful. David is coveting the witch under the castle. He lurks in the castle and secretly breaks the seal. That's why Yalans heard the cat's cry at night because the witch is gradually reviving."

The context of the matter gradually became clear.

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at him and said, "But most people think Wei is not the murderer!"

Zhao Chenghuang seemed to have been poured with a bucket of cold water. He was about to speak but stopped. Zhang Yuanqing's face was glowing white, and the treacherous minister's face became more gloomy: "Yalans was indeed poisoned. Master Dong's suspicion has been reduced, but if the murderer is not David? Then it must be Master Dong."

However, many details of the case cannot be explained by using Master Dong as the murderer. Master Dong and David are two different characters. David's poison could not have fallen into Master Dong's hands. If, as he just said, Master Dong stole David's poison, then it can only be said that the castle mystery is playing tricks on them. It is not a serious reasoning and solving the case at all.

If Master Dong can steal poison, then other characters can also steal it. There is no way to infer the possibilities.

This kind of "copy" would not be so trivial. The poison was found in David's room, so the act of poisoning Yalan must be related to David.

In fact, if it is confirmed that Yalans died of poison, then Master Dong can be ruled out as a suspect. However, the result of the spirit writing clearly points to Master Dong, if it is not David's words, then it must be Master Dong, unless someone has other meanings.

However, in the information collected so far, there is no "D" clue to support his reasoning, so the above name should be correct.

All these circumstances brought Zhang Yuanqing's reasoning into a dead end.

A few seconds later, he looked at Zhao Chenglong with a smile on his face: "There are still three minutes before the night comes. Go to Master Dong's room. If he stole the pottery jar, there should be clues left in the room. Zhao Chenghuang's eyes lit up and he quickly left David's room.

As the two of them walked through the corridor, Zhao Chenghuang suddenly stopped and sniffed, saying, "There is a strange smell."

He followed the smell and looked at the human figure in the corridor. That was the rough outline left after Sun Miaomiao's death. The two stopped and looked back.

"Miaomiao smells like candles," Zhao Chenghuang said, retracting his gaze and saying, "Time is running out, go to your room."

The two came to Master Dong's room. Zhao Chenghuang slowly moved along the wall and sniffed the whole room carefully. He shook his head and said, "There is no smell of poison."

The walls of the castle were made of thick granite, and the doors and windows were tightly closed. If Master Dong had stolen poison, he would have been able to smell it with his werewolf sense of smell.

Zhang Yuanqing nodded

"It is now certain that there is no intersection between unrelated characters. David's poison will not appear in Master Dong's room. Among the six characters, Master Dong and Ya Lan Si are in one plot line, Daniel and Lun En are in one plot line, Lun En and David are in one plot line, and David and Sandy Lance are in one plot line."

"The poison is in David's room. If David is not the murderer, then the most likely murderer is someone who has had some connection with him. Lun can be ruled out. Then who are the most likely suspects?"

Zhao Chenghuang suddenly opened his eyes wide. "Miaomiao? No, Sandy Lance? Why did she kill her own mother?"

"That love letter is the reason. She fell in love with the vampire David, but her mother, Ya Lance, wanted to marry her to a local noble."

Zhang Yuanqing sneered: "So he became so evil that he poisoned his mother to death. What a sinister plot."

He actually didn't want to sneer, but the white face was inherently sarcastic and weird.

"But there is no need for her to poison her mother. Wouldn't it be better for her to run away with David?" Zhao Chenghuang shook his head.

What if it was David who instigated it? Don't forget David's identity and the reason why he was hiding in the castle.

Zhang Yuanqing said: "I even suspect that the method to unlock the daughter's seal was also cheated by David from Sendilance. He tricked his daughter into poisoning her mother and plotted to seal her family. It's a good plan, I really like it!"

Zhao Chenghuang was silent for a few seconds, then said with a serious face:

"These are all speculations and are not supported by evidence."

"There are six people in total. If it's not David or Master Dong, then only Sendi Lance is left."

Zhang Yuanqing said: "There is not much time left, we can make a public decision. There is less than a minute left before night falls."

Zhao Chenghuang said in a deep voice: "Jumang, you were so confident when you publicly recommended David. We have already missed it once. If we make another mistake, Guan Ya will die, Miao Miao will die, and Brother Hongji and Tianxia Guihuo will also die."

"I need evidence to prove that Sandy Lance is the murderer."

It’s not that he doesn’t support Yuanshi, but this involves the life and death of his partner and there is no room for error.

Even though Yuanshi Tianzun's analysis made sense, without evidence, Zhao Chenghuang didn't dare to gamble with the lives of Sun Miaomiao and others. The more he cared, the more cautious he became.

Zhang Yuanqing's face was gloomy: "Sun Miaomiao is dead, and Sendi Lance's room can never be opened. Now that we are in this situation, we can only gamble."

The sharp and shrill cry of a cat rang in the ears of the two.

Dark night is coming!

Before the night fell, Zhao Chenghuang whispered, "There is still half an hour left. Don't rush to make a public decision. If I die, I hope you can review the situation again. If you die, I will do the same."

His voice suddenly stopped.

Soon, the night fell and dawn came. Zhao Chenghuang's boat stopped on the ground and turned into a corpse. Zhang Yuanqing was the only one left in the reasoning team.

At this time, Zhang Yuanqing has returned to his original appearance. The night has sealed his white face, and along with it his selfish, gloomy and cunning character.

He subconsciously raised his hand and pressed it to his forehead, thought about it, and put it down again.

If White Face was activated, Sendilance would be nominated without hesitation. Zhao Chenghuang's last words made Zhang Yuanqing choose to give up White Face.

"Then review it again." He closed his eyes and visualized his biological father's appearance over and over again, allowing his brain power to gradually boil over and trigger his old illness.

Soon, confusing images and meaningless noises filled his mind. Unlike before, Zhang Yuanqing could easily bear the burden of his boiling brain. After waiting quietly for a few seconds, the noise disappeared and the images became orderly. From the moment they entered the mystery of the Bu Yi Castle, all the images were played back frame by frame, clearly and slowly.

Day 1: Enter the castle, find Ya.Lance's room, investigate the death scene, find the castle basement, and discover the witch's seal.

Return to the castle and open the door of Master Dong's room.

That night, the red-headed chicken brother died.

The next day, he opened the room of the demon hunter Daniel and found the information about the werewolf. He then used his points to exchange for the skill of supporting chaos.

When the scene of the spirit writing revelation replayed, and the images flashed by frame by frame, Zhang Yuanqing saw the door more clearly, and he was suddenly stunned.

At this moment, he saw very clearly that what the ice pen wrote on the table was not "d", but the letters C and "i". However, at that time, the ice pen was melting, and the moment it finished writing, the melted water made the two adjacent letters blend seamlessly and become "d".

Sun Miaomiao died that night, leaving only a charred human silhouette at the scene.

On the third day, David's room was opened. That night, Guihuo died. The conspiracy failed and Zhai Cai died.

The memory ended quickly, and after "replaying" the whole process, Zhang Yuanqing listed three abnormal phenomena.

The results are "c" and "i".

Tianxia Guihuo has no skills!

After Sun Miaomiao's death, no corpse was left behind, but a charred human silhouette.

"What does C,I mean?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned, "Isn't it the name? But I saw that Fuluan's claim was the murderer who killed Yalans, so the result must be directly pointing to the murderer. In addition to the name, what else can directly point to the murderer?"

Suddenly, a flash of lightning seemed to flash through his mind and he understood the meaning.

Sendilan hiss!

"The male name of Sandy is spelled as Sandy, the female name is spelled as Cdy, and the English spelling of Sandy Lance is: cdy.

ci means Sandy Lance, she is the murderer!

I should have thought that this kind of decryption copy would have misleading clues. I was too confident in the information given by the copy.

Zhang Yuanqing strode out of the room and came to the corridor. He stopped beside the human figure, picked up some burnt and oily ashes with his fingers, and smelled them with his nose.

He smelled a slightly pungent smell of burnt oil and grease, but not the candle smell that Zhao Chenghuang had described.

But since the werewolves said this about him, it must be correct.

Why does it smell like candles?

Unless it is not a human, Zhang Yuanqing had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he spit out the power of Taiyin, transforming into a little funny guy, a ghost bride and a group of spirit servants.

"Find the living people in the castle." The spirit servants turned into black smoke, penetrated the wall, and scattered.

Anyway, Zhai Cai is out, so he doesn't need to hide anything.

"Bah!" Not long after, the little funny guy came back first, crawled out from the floor, hugged his calves and kept saying "Aba Aba".

"Underground?" Zhang Yuanqing picked up the little funny guy and turned into starlight and disappeared.

The next second, bright starlight lit up in the dark basement of the castle.

"Aba Aba." The funny little boy sitting on Zhang Yuanqing's arm pointed at the coffin.

Zhang Yuanqing moved closer and looked inside the coffin, where Miaomiao lay sleeping.

Sun Miaomiao, who was supposed to have died the next night, appeared in the coffin in the basement with her body intact and not turned into ashes.

You guessed it right.

Zhang Yuanqing felt the pressure on his body lighten by two ounces. He leaned over to check Miaomiao's pulse and breath, and confirmed that she was still alive. He immediately raised his hand and slapped that round, fair face.

Sun Miaomiao was hit and woke up immediately. She stood up and looked around vigilantly.

"Why am I sleeping here?" She was very confused when she found herself lying in a coffin in the basement.

Zhang Yuanqing told her everything that happened afterwards.

Sun Miaomiao was shocked when she heard this. She tilted her head and said, "It was a close call. We almost died. But why am I still here after I died?"

"If you want to know why, just go to your room and you'll know." Zhang Yuanqing.

He flicked his finger on her forehead and said, "Hurry up, I still need to verify some guesses."

After saying that, he snapped his fingers, turned into starlight and left the basement. Seeing this, Sun Miaomiao also raised her little hand and snapped her fingers in a very professional manner. The starlight lit up and she followed him out.

After returning to the castle, Sun Miaomiao found her room in the quiet corridor inside the castle, and opened the door after paying points.

As the eldest daughter of the castle and the heiress of the Reims family, Sandy: Reims's room is quite luxurious, with thick wool blankets spread on the wide wooden bed, tables, chairs and wardrobes painted red, and teapots and cups made of silver.

The two searched the room for a while and found a sheepskin roll with records of black magic and a stack of love letters written by David to Sandirans in the closet and the wooden box under the bed.

There were also several bottles and jars containing materials for performing dark magic.

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at the magic scroll and saw the magic of wax figure substitute. It was this trick that the witch used to take Sun Miaomiao away without anyone noticing.

Zhang Yuanqing and Sun Miaomiao put their heads together and read the love letter quickly.

"Beautiful Miss Sendi, you may not know that the Lance family is a great witch family. You have witch blood flowing in your veins and you are a natural born magician. I have a magic book here that I would like to give to you, but please keep it secret."

"I'm sorry, but I'm no longer capable of being your teacher. My dear girl, you need a better teacher to teach you the dark arts. She is in the basement of the castle."

"Your mother is the most selfish person in the world. She has no talent for learning magic, and she is jealous of your talent. She only wants to marry you to a nobleman instead of letting you become a wild owner of the castle and restore the glory of the Reims family."

"Our plan is going smoothly. Tonight is the night of the full moon, when the feminine power is at its strongest. It's time to invite the great witch back to the world, but her body has deteriorated after being sealed for hundreds of years, and she needs a new body. She is your ancestor, the most gifted witch in the Lance family. You and Madam Lance are connected to her by blood, and are the best carriers. You are smart enough to understand what I mean."

As he read the love letters one by one, Zhang Yuanqing gradually figured out the truth of the castle mystery in his mind.

In order to obtain the power of witches, the vampire and werewolf David lurked in the Lance family castle. He posed as a tutor and seduced Sendy Lance.

The cat's cry that Yayuan Lansuis heard at night was caused by the revival of the witch caused by his daughter and David slowly lifting the seal.

On a full moon night not long ago, Sendilans poisoned his mother at David's instigation. Arans' body was supposed to be the carrier for the witch to come, but unexpectedly, an exorcist came to the castle, sensed the breath of black magic, and before the witch came, he pierced Arans' heart with a greatsword and completed the exorcism.

Master Dong may have also taken action, and the ice pen is the evidence.

The two may have left the castle owner's room in a hurry because they were tracking the witch, and the smell of blood attracted the bloodthirsty werewolf, which happily ate Yalans's internal organs. Unexpectedly, the toxin was transferred to its body, causing it to have an upset stomach, which resulted in the pool of vomit in the room.

"It's a very simple case. I should have opened my door first." Sun Miaomiao said confidently, "As long as you open my door, everything will be clear."

"No!" Zhang Yunqing shook his head.

"Your door will never open."

"Why?"

Zhang Yuanqing tilted his head and looked at her small round face. "The witch's advent ceremony was destroyed by the exorcist Daniel and Master Dong. Who do you think the witch without a body will choose to descend upon?"

Sun Miaomiao didn't feel stupid, and her expression immediately changed, "It's on me!"

"That's right. The witch won't let us enter this room. Pure reasoning is not difficult for saints and masters. The difficulty of this copy lies in the lack of information, so you will definitely die. However, the witch also has limitations. She can only kill people at night and cannot kill herself. That's why you faked your death. Because of the fake death, there is no corpse left. This is a clue given to us by the copy. If I can't discover your fake death, I will never be able to open Sendy Lance's room." Zhang Yuanqing said.

Sun Miaomiao frowned, "But the witch kills a random person every night. If it's not me who dies the next night, then who is it?"

"Those who died will return to the flames of the world," Zhang Yuanqing said with certainty.

Sun Miaomiao was stunned and asked: "Didn't he die on the third night?"

"Every character has skills, except Tian Xia Gui Huo. Maybe it's not that he doesn't have skills, but he just doesn't know about them. For example, he has passive skills, or simply, there is no prompt."

"Assuming that Guan Xia Gui Huo's passive skill is resurrection, or immunity to attack once, it was him who died that night, but the passive skill was triggered, allowing him to survive, and he himself didn't know about it. All the phenomena can be explained."

Zhang Yuanqing's hypothesis is not pure imagination, but has a basis. The character of Tianxia Guihuo is a vampire, and the characteristics of vampires are longevity, resurrection and strong vitality!

"I'll explain this after we leave the painting! Let's just assume it's a bad guy first!

Zhang Yuanqing said, "Character skills are information that cannot be made public. He doesn't want to fall before dawn, having come this far."

"Okay!" Sun Miaomiao nodded and said happily: "It's me. We survived to the end."

"What are you so happy about?" Zhang Yuanqing glanced at her, and the two of them tacitly said the murderer's name: Sandilance.

The next second, a prompt sound came from my ear:

[Ding, the answer is correct. Congratulations to Yue for finding the real murderer of the castle mystery.]

Zhang Yuanqing exhaled forcefully and saw Sun Miaomiao raising her head and happily showing him her little fangs. Then, her face began to blur, and the surrounding scenery began to blur. The next moment, he returned to the room with the four paintings and saw Guan Ya, Zhao Chenghuang, Hongji Ge, Tianxia Guihuo and Zhai Cai leaving the paintings one after another.
