After all, the identity of the man in black is too important to him. What he knows is what he wants to know, and what Shen Qianshan wants to know. At present, it seems that he must find this person, and what else can he do? They had to find a way to get the truth out of him, so that they could resolve the matter as quickly as possible and move on to other places.
Zhuiyun followed Gusu Liang's words that day and followed the mysterious person, but he didn't get any clues. The mysterious man seemed to be just a businessman passing through Kyoto. In the past few days in Kyoto, he had not done anything unusual. He just lived in an ordinary inn, even with ordinary businessmen. There is no difference.
After following him for a few days, Zhuiyun also began to want to tell his master that this person might just have a certain movement that was similar to that of the man in black. Maybe it was just a coincidence and there was no need to pay such attention.
But Gusu Liang didn't think so. He believed that there was God's will in the dark. Since he could see this person again, it meant that this person must have something to do with what happened at that time, and most people rarely hold cups. Sometimes, he would give his wrist away. This action he had only seen on the man in black. It was definitely not a habit of any place. It must be related to the identity of that person.
"Master, I really don't think there is anything suspicious about that person. Otherwise, if we change our thinking and look for other relevant clues, it may not be useful to continue wasting time on him."
Zhuiyun was also afraid that Gusu Liang would get into trouble, so he said this. However, Gusu Liang didn't feel that he was just trying to get into trouble. He felt that this person must be the man in black at that time, and the longer time passed, the more determined he became. of such thoughts.
"No, this person is definitely the man in black who imprisoned me at that time. I must understand why he appeared in Kyoto this time. I must also ask him in person what happened before. Such a situation.”
Gusu Liang hadn't had time to tell Shen Qianshan and the others about this matter. Shen Qianshan had been busy investigating the relevant files recently, and there seemed to be no big improvement. If the identity of the person he saw this time could be confirmed, If it was the man in black who kidnapped him at that time, that would definitely be a very important clue for them. It would be faster than Shen Qianshan finding clues from several cabinets of files. It was obvious that this person knew There are clues about those events back then.
"Okay, don't say these things to me anymore. You just need to tell me where the person I asked you to follow lives and what important things he has done in the past few days. Tell me everything. Come out and I can naturally judge."
Gusu Liang didn't have any extreme thoughts, but he felt that they didn't seem to have made any progress in the recent period. Regarding this matter, both he and Shen Qianshan hoped to resolve it as soon as possible, so even if any They should not let go of any clues, and should understand what exactly happened.
But in the current situation, even his bodyguards didn’t believe his thoughts, and Gusu Liang didn’t know what he should do. Zhuiyun was very helpless, so he told Gusu Liang the address of the man. After Su Liang heard this, he went out without any hesitation and found the place Zhui Yun had just mentioned.
Indeed, the place where this person lives is just an ordinary small inn. Many merchants who come and go will choose to stay in this place. When I used to do business and travel around, I would often choose such an inconspicuous inn to stay. , It’s not that I carry any valuable things with me, I just feel that I shouldn’t show my wealth when I’m outside, so I try to live in a low-key place and look for doctors low-key, but I didn’t expect that I would still be found to be looking for a doctor for my brother. Gu Linjiang did a thorough investigation and found out that his seemingly perfect cover-up for so many years turned out to be of no use at all.
Gusu Liang's identity is now very common in Kyoto. After all, Lingyin Pavilion has just reopened. The shop owners in the nearby shops should all know him, but if he goes in hastily like this, it will obviously attract everyone's attention. , plus it was still getting late, so he couldn't stay too long on this street. He just took a look from a distance, and after confirming the location, returned to Bingli Road.
Shen Qianshan secretly entered the archives of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Rites, pretending to be a small civil servant, and while pretending to sort out the files here, he did not forget to look for clues about his mother and concubine's affairs between the lines.
In fact, because the time lapse was too long, the information he could find was far less than what was recorded in the dossier that Gu Qiang stole from the royal ancestral hall at that time. It was a pity that the fire destroyed Gu Qiang's life. Qiang only took out two thin files, and there were very few records about his mother and concubine. Although they were useful to him, they could only help him understand what it was like at that time. specific situation, and no subtle clues can be found between the lines.
Shen Qianshan returned to Lingyin Pavilion with a tired look on his face, and happened to see Gusu Liang, who looked a little disappointed. Because Gusu Liang had not had time to tell everyone about this matter, he had no way to let Gu Huaian or Gu Qiang for the time being. Make yourself a new human/leather mask, make yourself a fake identity.
What's more, I'm not completely sure now. If I rush forward so rashly, I might be able to alert the snake. If that person is really the man in black, the moment I see him again, I'll be very surprised. Maybe he understood his purpose. If he disappeared like this, where would he go to find relevant clues
"What's wrong with you? Why do you look listless?"
When Shen Qianshan saw Gusu Liang, who was not very energetic, he stepped forward and asked, "The look on Gusu Liang's face was very disappointed. It seemed that something bad had happened to him. After all, everyone is tied to the same thing now." It was impossible for Shen Qianshan to remain indifferent to the grasshopper on the rope, so he stepped forward and asked.
Gu Suliang shook his head, "It's nothing serious, but my lord, do you know what clues the man in black who held me hostage left behind?"
Shen Qianshan didn't understand why Gusu Liang suddenly asked about this matter, but he still tilted his head and thought about it.
"If we're talking about clues, it's probably that the weapon he carries is very special. It's not much different from the wounds on your uncle, Ziqi, and you. His knife should have a blood drain slot, so his weapon caused it The wound is thin and narrow, but there is no way to stop the bleeding immediately. Even if it is saved, it will probably be seriously injured."
Shen Qianshan was not talking nonsense about these things, so in the end it was Ziqi who killed Gusu Liang's uncle, but he did have such a wound on his body, and he had seen it with his own eyes. Such wounds could not be treated in the world. Not many people came out, it was because that person's weapon was special, that's why.
"This means that if I can find the same weapon, can I confirm the identity of that person?"
Gusu Liang's eyes lit up. To be honest, why didn't he think of this before
Indeed, if you can really find a similar weapon, you can prove that the person you met that day was the man in black who held you hostage at that time. If a person in the world has a weapon that he can take advantage of, he will definitely keep it with him, even if it is Now that he has to disguise his identity, he must be able to find some clues from his daily habits.
If I remembered correctly, my guess at that time was that the person used a special weapon, so he had the habit of holding a teacup like that, so I felt that the person's posture was a bit special.
"What's wrong? Do you have any clues about the man in black?"
Shen Qianshan has always paid attention to this matter, so when Gusu Liang talked about it, he was also very vigilant. If they can really find this person, then their investigation will be simple. A lot, they can find out things about the man in black, and naturally they can also find out what is the relationship between the man in black and the King Cheng they have been talking about
In any case, the biggest variable affecting them now is King Cheng. If they can find the real His Highness King Cheng, they will be able to properly handle the matter with Shen Zhongbai.
"Indeed, I saw a man in another hall that day. He had exactly the same habit of holding a teacup as the man in black. He was used to extending his wrist when holding the cup. I was thinking, did he hold the teacup like that or... Is he holding something else? Is it because he usually maintains that kind of action when using any weapon, so he develops this habit? You also said that the weapon held by the man in black is very special, and ordinary people are It was useless, so I was even more certain that the person I saw was probably the man in black who held me hostage."
Gusu Liang felt that he had found some definite evidence, but if this was really the case, their investigation would become much easier.
Shen Qianshan has not gained much from investigating the files these days. He is just able to integrate all the things that happened during that period of time and see if there are any interrelated parts among these things. It is a pity that The results were minimal, and the current situation was not a good thing for him.
