Of course Tie Tang knew why the ancient city wall collapsed, but this was not his focus.

Follow this lead

He asked the biggest doubt in his heart.

"Who is it that left the palm print?"

The palm prints on the city wall are very similar to the Cangtian Hegemony Palm, and the Cangtian Hegemony Palm is one of the ten unique hegemonic bodies, and there is no way it can be spread.

If you are not a person who has reached the top of the world by cultivating the Ten Absolute Hegemony Body, even if you want to learn it secretly, it will be very difficult to learn it.

When Tie Tang was looking through the information on Qingshui County, he once wanted to find seniors who practiced the Ten Ultimate Hegemony, but he found nothing. There was no similar person.

The Ten Jue Hegemons are divided into five positive volumes and five negative volumes. Among them, the first four volumes of the positive five volumes have always been circulated in the world and are called the "Five Phases of the Wild Ox".

The sun and moon phases in Volume 5 would have been very difficult to obtain if not for chance.

Because the five volumes of exercises alone cannot produce any advanced skills, it can barely be regarded as a second-rate set of kung fu, and those who can surpass it will not know the world.

There is no doubt that the technique of reversing the Five Scrolls has been lost long ago.

Except for himself at present.

Only the female escort knows the technique of reversing the Five Scrolls.

And because the technique was extremely difficult to practice, she did not dare to continue practicing. After practicing the second phase in reverse, she chose to break into the secret realm of witchcraft.

I am afraid there is no one who can truly obtain the complete ten volumes of forward and reverse techniques, and also has the qualifications of a supreme genius. I am afraid that there is no one who can reach the top with the help of the Ten Ultimate Hegemony Body.

So Tie Tang was very surprised after he recognized the palm print. He also wanted to find people who share the same path and exchange their cultivation experiences with each other, so that he would no longer be alone on the road.

The owner of the palm print in front of you is undoubtedly a good clue.

But Qiu Zhengyang's reply made him a little disappointed.

"Why are you asking this? I don't know who left the palm print, but it was obviously a long time ago.

Even before the Great Unification, this palm print had already been left. Who knows which immortal or god it might be? They rarely appear in the world now."

Today, the only orthodoxy on earth is the human race.

Immortals dare not descend to the human world lightly. If they are discovered without permission, the consequences will never be good.

If the 'person' who left the palm print is really an immortal in the sky, then Tie Tang's desire to see him is not something he can do in a short time.

"It seems that after the competition is over, I have to find the female escort and ask her where her skills come from. Maybe there will be some clues."

Nothing could be found about the palm prints, and Tie Tang was not very interested. He pretended to search a lot with Qiu Zhengyang, but naturally found nothing.

Even if he really discovered something, he wouldn't be able to say it.

Experts from Tianshan County and other supervisory palaces mainly search for the east, west and west city walls among the three city walls.

Few people searched for the southern city wall where the real incident occurred, which made Tie Tang's tense mind gradually relax.

This is not because everyone failed to work hard and the south city wall was deliberately omitted.

But when the south city wall collapsed, Li Qingwan, the celestial witch, witnessed it with his own eyes.

If there is any thief who acts rashly, it will definitely not be hidden from Li Qingwan’s eyes.

Since she said she didn't find anything at that time, there is a high probability that there is nothing wrong with the south city wall.

The murderer hiding in the dark must have used weird and unpredictable methods near the east and west city walls.

Everyone thought so, searching over and over on the east and west city walls, looking for evidence that was destined to be impossible to find.

One day passed in the blink of an eye, and the eight-county competition continued.

Tie Tang and everyone from Qingshui County arrived at the huge circular grandstand again.

Marquis Zhongyong, who is in the central position, seems to have never left from the beginning to the end. The golden list above his head is shining, recording the current ranking of the eight major counties and cities.

Wait until the last ** ratio is completed

The rankings on the golden list will become a reality, no longer a hypothesis. The rows of bright golden words represent the rankings of the eight major counties and cities in the next thirty years.

The eight major county guards gathered under the head of Zhongyong Hou, starting from the highest-ranked Yinbai County, and handed over their decisions to Zhongyong Hou in turn.

The opponents were quickly selected, and the four new camps were announced.

Yinbai County chose the weakest Anquan County.

Tianshan County chose Feng'an County.

Changdu County chose Xiuyang County.

As for Ningjing County, which originally ranked third, only Qingshui County is left to choose from.

Marquis Zhongyong looked at the four gold papers in his hand, smiled slightly, and looked at the four leading county guards.

"Did you discuss this?"

The four of them looked at each other in confusion. At first they didn’t know what Marquis Zhongyong meant, but they immediately realized it in the next moment.

All four people chose the same level!

The other four county guards, including Li Qingwan, are all confused. They don't even know who their opponents are now.

"Okay, in that case I will change the rules temporarily!" Marquis Zhongyong made a decision. No one dared to refute, they just listened quietly.

"Your four major counties have all chosen Wen Dou. I originally wanted to arrange them one by one, but I am afraid of trouble

This way.

The collapse of the ancient city wall of Tianshan City caused quite a stir and remains unresolved to this day.

Since it's a literary fight, let's see who can find the murderer first.

Each of your eight counties will send three people, with a one-day time limit. Whoever finds the murderer first can come to me and report.

The rankings are in order of reporting.

If no one finds the murderer, then I will judge which side wins based on the clues found.

This round is still an eight-point system. Finding the murderer is considered a complete victory and you can get points.

If the two major counties in the duel find the murderer, neither side will be deducted points, and everything will be calculated based on points.

In counties where the murderer has not been found, the ranking will be based on the number of clues found.

How?

Do you have any comments?"

The other seven county guards all bowed their heads and remained silent. Regardless of whether they had any opinions in their hearts, they would never speak out to refute the words of Marquis Zhongyong.

Even if they really want to give advice, they will not be the first to stand up and take the lead.

But Li Qingwan doesn’t care.

This year, she is aiming at the prefectures. In order to be number one among the eight counties, she must steadily pass every level.

"Master Marquis, Tianshan County is the place where the incident occurred. It would be a bit biased if we and the other seven counties work with him to find the real culprit, regardless of the time, location, or people."

Tianshan City is the headquarters of Tianshan County, and it undoubtedly has a huge advantage in this competition.

Marquis Zhongyong looked at Li Qingwan with interest. He was not angry, but simply explained, "There is no absolute fairness in the world!

Tianshan County ranked first among the eight counties last year because of its ability. It is natural that Tianshan County has some advantages this year.

Each of you must gather three people. Their age must not be over a hundred, and their cultivation level must not exceed that of the Wujin Secret Realm. Get ready to go.

Others stay here and wait for the results with me!"

Marquis Zhongyong’s meaning is already obvious. In today’s literary fight, you are willing to compete with the best. If you don’t want to compete, then you have to compete. It is not her turn to have the final say.

But for the sake of Qingshui County, Li Qingwan was really brave and spoke out again.

"Master Hou, if we find out the real culprit, there are thousands of ways to identify it.

But if the murderer can’t be found

How can we determine the authenticity of those clues based only on the words of the Marquis family?"

She is really bold. This sentence has offended Marquis Zhongyong a little, implying that the other party cannot tell whether the clues are true or false.

This is actually not unreasonable.

If you don’t even know who the murderer is, who knows if the clues you found are true or false, are they of any use?

It's not that it's impossible to distinguish, but it's very difficult to distinguish. At the same time, it doesn't have much convincing power. Naturally, it can't be used as a criterion to measure the outcome of a competition.

Marquis Zhongyong was not angry, he was leaning on the white jade lion-pattern chair with a calm expression.

"I know who the real murderer is, does Governor Li still have questions?"

The Sheriff of Tianshan County looked up suddenly, and then quickly lowered his head.

Li Qingwan hesitated for a moment, but still raised her hand and saluted, "Master Hou is mighty!"

The eight county guards dispersed without a trace of doubt.

Since Marquis Zhongyong knows the real murderer, he naturally also knows whether the clues he found are true and useful.
