Luo Xuening didn't believe in the villagers' stories about ghosts and gods at all. She was not a person who believed in ghosts and gods. However, there seemed to be one beside her.

Luo Xuening cast her gaze towards Gu Shuchang. His eyes kept drifting towards the roof beams. Although his body was still sitting upright, his fingertips were trembling slightly. It seemed that he could not sit still.

Luo Xuening chuckled softly, but quickly pursed her lips. She couldn't laugh at others like that.

However, she couldn't understand why Gu Shuchang was so afraid.

He should be a cold-faced general who decides life and death on the battlefield, but when he was sprayed with corpses, ghosts, and the like, he became like this. Is this what they call contrast cuteness?

Of course, Luo Xuening didn’t know that the reason why Gu Shuchang was afraid of corpses, ghosts and the like was not because he was too timid, but because he had a psychological shadow.

As the unfavored illegitimate son of the third wife of the Gu family, Gu Shuchang grew up under the oppression of the first and second wives of the Gu family.

The most outrageous thing they had ever done was to place an animal corpse on the bed of six-year-old Gu Shuchang one night.

It goes without saying how scared Gu Shuchang was at that time, and even now, Gu Shuchang cannot forget this psychological shadow.

Although he is now a martial arts expert and those people from the Gu family no longer dare to bully him, as soon as he sees those people from the Gu family, he wants to destroy them.

If Luo Xuening knew that Gu Shuchang's psychological shadow was so serious, she would not laugh at him.

However, except for Gu Shuchang, the others in this group of people obviously do not believe in superstition. Of course, Gu Shuchang does not believe in superstition either, he just has not overcome his inner demons.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, you can leave."

Luo Xue Ning said this to the villager, and the villager did not show much expression. Before leaving, he glanced at Luo Xue Ning.

This look was quite meaningful. Luo Xue Ning noticed it, but did not care.

Because this villager was just a peripheral figure in this case, and his purpose was only to tell them about the Hongshan Temple.

But the officers present were puzzled. It was obvious that there was something wrong with the man just now, so why did Miss Luo let him go?

"Miss Luo, is there really nothing wrong with this man?" the officer asked in confusion.

“No big problem.”

The officer looked distressed. There was no big problem. So was there a problem or not?

But the person is gone, and they can't pursue the matter any further.

In fact, the reason why he had to come to Hongshan Temple today was not just because the fifth lady of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion had been here before she disappeared.

More importantly, Luo Xuening did not find anything in common among the twelve victims of the locked room murder case.

However, there is one point mentioned in the file, that is, all twelve victims believed in Buddhism.

In Nanshao, there are countless people who believe in Buddhism and other religions. This is not surprising, so it is often overlooked.

However, Luo Xuening discovered a suspicious point: the twelve victims of the closed-room murder case were all concubines who were very favored by the current officials in the capital.

Moreover, the temples they worshipped were not large temples with great popularity, but small temples in the mountains.

They even deliberately concealed the details of the temples they worshipped, which aroused suspicion.

So, at that time, Luo Xuening had the idea of ​​investigating the temples in the capital. However, this move was not only difficult to implement, but it would also easily cause panic among the people. In the end, Long Moxun did not agree.

There are many temples in Nanshao, and there are countless large and small temples. If we find the temple that the twelve victims of the closed-room murder case believe in in the capital, it would undoubtedly be like finding a needle in a haystack.

However, just when Luo Xuening was at a loss, the Anguo Mansion mentioned the Hongshan Temple. Luo Xuening felt that there was a big problem with this Hongshan Temple.

Turning her head, Luo Xuening looked around the temple. This quiet yet somewhat unusual Hongshan Temple must be hiding a huge secret.

However, these secrets are still waiting for them to uncover layer by layer.

At this time Luo Xuening looked back, her eyes fixed on the corpse.

Suddenly, the soil under the dead man's feet attracted Luo Xuening's attention.

There was soil under the feet of the deceased, and as luck would have it, there was a piece of iron sheet left on the soil.

Luo Xuening used a stick to gently pick up the dirt from under the dead man's shoes.

Now, she was almost certain that the soil under the feet of the deceased was actually the same as the soil under the woods where the fifth daughter of the Duke of Anguo was killed.

In other words, the deceased had been to the forest outside the city before.

And, according to the dwarf man that Luo Xuening caught yesterday, after they raped the fifth lady of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, the lady was only breathing her last.

They abandoned her in the wilderness and left her to die. Of course, no one would deliberately hang her body from a tree with a rope.

Well, now Luo Xuening can be sure that the person who finally hanged the body of the daughter of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion on the tree was the dead person in front of them.

After figuring this out, Luo Xuening's previous doubts were all resolved.

"Someone, go and verify the identity of the deceased immediately. This person is very likely the real murderer of the locked room murder case."

"Intensify the search of the temple. There may be hidden secrets here. Every place must be searched. Not a single one can be left out."

Just as they found out a few days ago, the real murderer of the copycat locked room murder case was Wang Wu. After they found the murderer, they searched his room and found that Wang Wu had hidden many tools used in the crime.

Wang Wu should have had direct contact with the deceased monk, and Wang Wu was directly under the command of the deceased monk.

Since Wang Wu had the tools to commit the crime, the same must be true for the deceased.

Luo Xuening had never imagined that there would be such a big discovery today, so when they really started searching, they found that they did not have enough manpower.

After confirming the special identity of the deceased, they would not conduct an ordinary search, but a search inch by inch.

If we ask them to continue searching like this, it will probably take several days and nights.

So, Luo Xuening glanced at Gu Shuchang who was sitting on the bamboo chair with a smile.

"Master Gu, are you busy now?"

"no"

Gu Shuchang was smart and said stiffly, "Luoxue Ning", but she had never smiled so brilliantly in front of him. Now it seems that Gu Shuchang really understood a line of poetry, "Looking back and smiling, she is charming." No, no, it's not "Looking back and smiling", anyway, Gu Shuchang didn't remember much of his poetry, anyway, he was fascinated.

"Then, help your people and search."

Luo Xue Ning blinked her eyes, her expression showing a look of innocence, without any trace of cunning in trying to trick someone.

Gu Shuchang pointed at himself. Well, he was a great general, but he had to search with the officers here in Luo Xuening. It was really difficult to be a human being.

After searching for a while and finding nothing, the officers were obviously getting impatient.

"Miss Luo, since we didn't find anything, can we stop now?"

"No, there must be something inside the temple. Search again."

An officer heaved a long sigh, threw the tools in his hand to the ground, and sat down on the ground without any image.

"Miss Luo, I've searched twice, and there's still nothing. Tell me, what are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for tools to commit the crime." Luo Xue Ning was not angry, but her expression was serious.

The officer glanced at the dead man and said in disbelief: "But he is a monk."

"Who said monks won't kill people?" Luo Xu Ning asked in a deep voice.

The officials did not participate in the autopsy, so they could not find anything unusual about the deceased. How could an ordinary monk have such powerful martial arts?

"But according to what you said, this monk is the murderer. The murderer is dead, what else should we investigate?"

The officer's face was blank, which was a bit cruel. Luo Xuening looked at him indifferently, with no expression on her face, but her eyes were clearly sharp.

"Why bother talking so much? Just do what Miss Luo says. You will always gain something."

A cold voice was heard, and the officer was immediately frightened and quickly got up from the ground.

Luo Xuening responded to Gu Shuchang, then thought about it and walked towards the incense burner.

Luo Xuening finally figured out why she looked at the incense burner so strangely. So this is the reason.

Ordinary incense burners, which are used to burn incense all year round, will leave some traces even after being cleaned thoroughly. However, the incense burner here is so clean that it looks like new.

Luo Xuening stepped forward, grasped the incense burner and turned it vigorously. There was a "click" sound and Luo Xuening felt that the layout of the room had changed.

The original Buddha statue suddenly disappeared, and a door appeared where the Buddha statue was originally placed.

It was a secret room. They were not wrong. There was indeed a secret room here.
