After listening to Wei Hongqing's question, Liu Xiaolou basically understood that it really happened, but he just didn't know where the problem was.

"Brother Wei, how did you get suspected?"

Wei Hongqing let out a long sigh, became stunned again, and said after a long time, "What a ruthless woman!"

Liu Xiaolou asked, "Lu Yan clan?"

Wei Hongqing nodded. "After all, I fell into her trap. Xiaolou, do you still remember Lu Zi'an back then?"

Liu Xiaolou said, "Of course."

Wei Hongqing said, "When the sect was preparing to recruit an inner sect disciple, it selected one from the outer sect. Lu Yan clan and Lu Zi'an were both outstanding talents among the outer sect. Everyone recognized that Lu Zi'an was more preferred. But half a year later, all signs showed that Lu Zi'an thought he had no hope, and in anger, he stole the Foundation Establishment Pill he had just made. As you know, Lu Zi'an died and Lu Yan clan entered the inner door. Do you know why Lu Zi'an suddenly took the risk?"

Liu Xiaolou thought of the letters he later found in Yangliu Bay's deserted house, and was startled. "Is it all that woman's fault?"

Wei Hongqing said, "Yes, all kinds of illusions were created to make Lu Zi'an think that he had been abandoned by the elders. Even some mistakes and omissions were deliberately exaggerated, thinking that the elders would punish him. Also, he spread the news that there was an ancient immortal cave abode in Bashu., haha, I deliberately released this news. In the end, the person on duty at Foundation Establishment Pill was originally Lu Yan clan. She thought of a way and said she was unwell and changed her name to Lu Zi'an."

Liu Xiaolou asked, "So?"

Wei Hongqing coughed twice and suddenly laughed, "So, anyone who wants to marry Lu Zhongqiu is a lie! She lied to me and also to Lu Zhongqiu. She never thought about getting married to Lu Zhongqiu. Lu Zhongqiu got married! She told me this just because that guy kept pestering her. I even suspected that that guy knew something about her! She just borrowed the knife to kill Lu Zhongqiu!"

Liu Xiaolou suddenly realized. "So, no matter how much we try to cover it up, it's still useless? She made up her mind from the beginning and asked you to take action? So she found a way to reveal Lu Zhongqiu's whereabouts to you?"

Wei Hongqing said in a daze, "Even Seven Treasures Lotus Pearl's weaknesses were told to me by her."

Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but be horrified. "No way, Brother Wei, I remember you said that Seven Treasures Lotus Pearl's countermeasure was mentioned by her accidentally two years ago. You and her were pretty good at that time. I told you in bed, right?"

Wei Hongqing covered his head with both hands and tore his hair. "I can't explain, Xiaolou, two years ago! Did she think of today two years ago? How good was I to her at that time? As good as a dog! A dog!"

There was sudden silence in the secret cave, and Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, which made his sweat pores stand up. He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the exit of the secret cave. It seemed that there was a woman's figure there, and her head would emerge from the pool at any time.

As soon as he turned his head, Wei Hongqing also stopped pulling his hair, and his eyes looked at the exit of the secret cave with fear.

The two of them looked at each other like this for a long time, not daring to Chuyi lose their temper, until Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but turn around, and when their eyes met, they were startled again.

"Brother Wei What's wrong with you?"

"What are you looking at, Xiaolou?"

"Let me see if anyone comes in"

"What did you see? What did you sense?"

"It seems not, right? Brother Wei What about you?"

"I didn't. I saw you staring at the exit. I thought you saw it!"

"Okay, Brother Wei, let's not scare ourselves."

"You're scaring me!"

After blaming each other for a few times and letting their voices reverberate in the secret cave, the two finally gained courage. They cheered each other up and followed the exit to the outside of the water pool. They fearfully checked the original route, then breathed a sigh of relief and went back again.

Liu Xiaolou asked, "It's hard to say what happened two years ago, but what is she thinking now? You were so good to her, but she had the heart to abandon it like a pair of worn-out shoes? I've lost a lot by lending you this knife. What's the benefit to her?"

Wei Hongqing fell into depression again. "I don't know, I can't figure it out either."

Liu Xiaolou sighed, comforted him a few words, stopped him from continuing to pull back his hair, and asked, "In that case, what about me? Have we been exposed? Will she know?"

Wei Hongqing said, "Xiaolou Don't worry, she doesn't know who is the accomplice in killing Lu Zhongqiu. After the death of Lu, the Xie family found Tianmu Mountain and told them that their head and surname were Lu left early in the morning and did not come back. He has been missing for many days. Tianmu Mountain sent people to check the Xie family in Jiashan. They only mentioned that three masked Xiangnan thieves had gone to steal hundreds of taels of silver. The Xie family did not know what happened next."

Liu Xiaolou asked, "Then how did she testify against you?"

Wei Hongqing said with a dark face, "Aren't I in seclusion to heal my injuries? During the few days when I went down the mountain, she happened to check on my injuries, but I wasn't there, so she complained a few times to several inner disciples Officer, saying that I was obviously injured., why did you still arrange for me to go out to do things? No one cared about it at the time... But later, after the Lu Zhongqiu case was investigated, a certain inner sect, Officer, suddenly remembered her complaint... and then the boss sent someone to ask me..."

Liu Xiaolou asked, "So you ran away?"

Wei Hongqing nodded. "Yes, if someone else said it, I can deny it, but this was what she said, and I suddenly thought of Lu Zi'an... Then I realized that I was fucked by her just like Lu Zi'an. There was obviously something about Lu Zi'an in front of me, but I didn't take any precautions. I was really stupid!"

Liu Xiaolou said, "No one would have imagined... When Lu Zi'an was ambushed, did she know about me, Eight Palms, Chieftain Zuo?"

Wei Hongqing said, "She doesn't know, she never asked, and I never told you who you are, so don't worry."

Liu Xiaolou asked again, "How did you escape?"

Wei Hongqing said, "Those two Officer who asked questions may not have expected that I took action without even a word of explanation, catching them off guard. But after all, Zuo and Yuan are both Qi Refining Perfection, and it is not easy to escape Tianmu Mountain... I will leave after I am healed, so as not to be targeted by them. If I search the mountain on a large scale, it will not be a long-term solution."

Liu Xiaolou said, "There is no need to worry. You at Tianmu Mountain may not understand the current situation. Wulong Mountain is a boundary mountain. The major sects cannot go up the mountain blatantly, otherwise the other side will not agree. Badong bandit sneaked up the mountain before with evil intentions. We expelled two and killed one. If you really want to do this, brother, I will directly gather people to kill him!"

Wei Hongqing frowned and asked, "What if someone with a high level of cultivation comes and you can't do it?"

Liu Xiaolou said hehe, "If you are a master who can't do it, don't blame us for reporting it to Badong bandit!"

Wei Hongqing blinked. "Is this what we Wulong Mountain are like now?"

Liu Xiaolou said, "Just stay down and recuperate. I'll keep an eye on the things outside for you."

As he said that, he pointed to the food he brought last time he went out. "There is rice and meat. You fill your stomach first. I haven't eaten much in the past few days. I will go out for a walk and let you know what happens."

Wei Hongqing agreed, took a spiritual stone from Liu Xiaolou, and continued to sit down to heal his wounds. Liu Xiaolou came out of the secret cave. He first walked around Ghost Dream Cliff, but found nothing unusual. Then he got off Wulong Mountain and inquired about the news at every house in the village at the foot of the mountain.

This inquiry revealed that something was indeed wrong.

Uncle Tian told Liu Xiaolou that in the past few days, there have been many spiritual masters outside the mountain. They just circled around Wulong Mountain but did not go up the mountain. The villagers suspected that another large group was going to enter the mountains to suppress them, and they had already sent reports to various hills.

"I've been to Qianzhu Ridge twice in the past few days, but you weren't there. Today you turned around. Leave when you need to, and hide when you can't. In short, you have to be prepared and don't be massacred."

"I know Uncle Tian, don't worry."

"Don't be careless. I heard that there are rules not to allow large groups to enter and suppress, but the rules are all set by people. It's really hard to say."
