Dali Temple, Fenglei Hall.
He Fei rubbed his brows and looked at the collected information on the Mudanlou murder case. The more he read it, the more worried he became. What worried him was not how many people died in the case. He had handled hundreds of village massacres. What worried him was that the murderer didn't stay behind. Any clues, as if these people were bitten to death by poisonous snakes.
"Is it possible?" He Fei asked himself.
The answer is absolutely impossible. Although these people were bitten to death by poisonous snakes on the surface, there must be a murderer behind the scenes. Otherwise, why only the people in the Peony Building died, and the residents next to them were not injured at all, and within a hundred meters , not a single shadow of a snake could be found. These snakes, like an army, are well-organized, have a clear division of labor, and advance and retreat in an orderly manner.
"My lord, how do you think this matter should be handled? After all, so many people have died, and the results cannot be found out, and there is no way to explain it to the higher authorities. Otherwise, it will be written as a snake epidemic. What do you think?"
"Snake epidemic? The scope of this snake epidemic is too concentrated, is it limited to the Peony Tower? Do you think the adults above are all fools?" He Fei reprimanded coldly.
"But there is indeed no clue at all. How to investigate this case, there is no clue."
He Fei didn't answer his subordinate's question, he frowned and read the file from beginning to end again. Suddenly, a detail caught his attention, "Except for the boss and the staff, there were twenty-eight people who checked in at the Peony Building last night. Why are there only twenty-five corpses in this guest room? There should be There are three more?"
"My lord, according to the narration of the diners last night and the identity comparison of the corpses, there are indeed three people. One is Qian Shuxiao, the young master of the Qian Mansion. He led a woman from other places to live in Tianzi last night. In Room No. 1, there was another person named Ye Que, who also came to Luoyang to visit relatives from other places. But later, Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que left together, and the house money was all recorded in Qian Shuxiao's name. It was a night away."
"Qian Shuxiao? Ye Que?" He Fei said silently twice, "Where is another woman?"
"I don't know. I asked several diners who ate here last night, and they all said that they have never seen her go downstairs. This woman is extremely beautiful, and no one will remember it wrong."
"Is there a name registration?" He Fei asked.
"No, there is only Qian Shuxiao's name on the housing registration, followed by a simple number 'two'."
He tapped his fingers on the desk a few times, and He Fei slapped the table and stood up, "Go and check on Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que. I have a hunch that there is something wrong with these two."
"By the way, did you just say Qian Mansion? Which Qian Mansion?"
"House No. 1 on Zhuque Street, the Qian Mansion of the richest merchant in Luoyang."
"Understood, act carefully, don't startle the snake. Also, don't cause unnecessary trouble to Dali Temple, you must find clues to solve the case within three days, and don't let Yushitai see our jokes."
He Fei has arranged everything here, and Ye Que has also woken up from his practice, absorbing the spiritual power of heaven and earth, which is more refreshing than ordinary people's sleeping. The gathered spiritual power is very abundant, if all of it is given to a martial artist, it is almost enough to raise him to a rank.
In addition, Ye Que used the spirit-stealing circle, and almost no spiritual power was wasted. Therefore, overnight, his realm basically stabilized, and his Tianyuan also increased a little. Last night, he lied to Hua Yao because Ye Que really didn't have much energy to mobilize in his body. If it was now, why bother talking nonsense.
Can't solve it with one sword
Then two swords!
"Boom, boom, boom."
"Boom, boom, boom."
A hasty knock on the door resounded through the Green Bamboo Garden of Qian Mansion.
"Is there anyone in there?"
"have you woken up?"
Such a loud knock on the door came from a woman.
Ye Que, who just woke up, frowned, "This Qian's mansion is considered a wealthy family, why are the maids and maidservants in the mansion so unruly, do they need to use so much strength to knock on the door? The guest is not deaf, and he clearly told that Qian Shu last night. Laugh, I like quietness and don't like noise."
Ignoring the hasty knock on the door, Ye Que tidied up his bed slowly, then rolled up the landscape scroll on the table and put it in the corner, tidied his clothes carefully, and then walked over to open the door. At this time, the door was about to be knocked into pieces, and the knocking speed was getting faster and faster, and the sound was getting louder and louder.
With a creak, the door was finally opened, and almost at the same time, a figure jumped into Ye Que's arms.
He moved his feet and subconsciously dodged to one side. After countless battles, Ye Que almost didn't need to think about some of the brain's control over his body.
"Boom!"
"ah!"
The sound of meat colliding with the ground was accompanied by a scream.
Looking down carefully, it turned out to be Qian Shuhua, the eldest lady of the Qian Mansion who I rescued last night. Last night, I saw this woman with a dignified appearance, and she was painting with a brush, with an extraordinary temperament. Look again at this time, sitting on the ground with legs crossed, grinning and rubbing his shoulders vigorously.
With just one glance, Ye Que understood why Qian Shuxiao would categorically say that his sister had never touched a pen. Just listen to the fierce knocking on the door this morning, this domineering sitting posture, this grinning demeanor, planning to hit the door without opening the door, you look like a woman. Let Ye Que say that this girl really shouldn't be called Qian Shuhua, but Qian Shuba is almost the same.
Ye Que looked at Qian Shuhua suspiciously, he didn't speak but the meaning was obvious, "What are you doing?"
Glancing at Ye Que, Qian Shuhua said angrily, "Don't look, give me a hand."
As he said that, he really stretched out his hand towards Ye Que, completely ignoring the clauses about whether men and women can kiss each other.
Ye Que wouldn't take her hand. Most practitioners are perfectionists, no matter how delicate they are, he wouldn't take the initiative to help them, "Get up by yourself."
"I'll use you to help me if I can get up." Qian Shuhua said loudly, "It hurts! Didn't you see that you fell down? You didn't even know how to open the door. Knock so many times, can't you hear me?"
"I'm not deaf."
"You won't open the door if you're not deaf?" Qian Shuhua frowned.
Ye Que lifted his foot slightly, and the chair beside the dining table fell firmly in Qian Shuhua's hand, which meant that you could hold the chair up. As for why she didn't open the door when she asked, Ye Que didn't bother to explain.
Whether to support it with a chair or with hands, Qian Shuhua didn't choose, so he climbed up while supporting the chair. As soon as he got up, he raised his hand and slapped Ye Que on the shoulder. Maybe it was because the distance was too close, or maybe it was because Ye Que didn't expect that this slap really caught Qian Shuhua, "Thank you, yesterday I’ve already heard about what happened at night. You saved me. No wonder I’ve always felt lethargic and my wrist hurts all the time. It turned out that I was bewitched by monsters and made me paint day and night. , Thanks to this monster who figured it out, Miss Ben..."
Qian Shuhua gesticulated and talked more and more vigorously, but before he finished speaking, he saw Ye Que next to him with an increasingly ugly expression.
Then he saw the gray palm print on Ye Que's shoulder and compared it to his own hand, Qian Shuhua smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention, I didn't pay attention."
Laughing, Qian Shuhua said, "I'm here to express my gratitude."
"Your brother has already thanked you."
"He is him and I am me."
"Okay, thank you then."
I saw Qian Shuhua sneakily took out a book from his sleeve, and solemnly put it in front of Ye Que, "This is the cheat book that I spent a lot of money on before, and I originally wanted to use it myself, but I heard that you are the best of the best, so let me use it for you first."
"Well, that's enough sincerity." Qian Shuhua said confidently.
Ye Que glanced at the so-called cheat books beside him, and immediately turned and left without saying a word.
"Hey, you don't even want the cheat book? Why don't you call it Ye Que, it'd be better to call it short-hearted." After talking about Qian Shuhua, he carefully put away the "cheat book" again, "Don't pull it down, Miss Ben is still here. I don’t want to give it to you, but I will give it to my family Yunhai later, he will definitely like it.”
The moment Qian Shuhua put away the 'Cheat Book', he saw four strong characters written on the yellowed cover, "Peerless Cheat Book!"
As for Ye Que, I really don't bother to talk to this strange young lady, "You say I'm heartless? It's ridiculous, even an idiot can see that it's definitely a lie. Whose secret book is named a peerless secret book? This is not a joke!"
Just a few steps after walking out, he ran into Qian Shuxiao who hurried over.
"Sir, did you rest well last night?" Qian Shuxiao greeted Ye Que first, although he seemed in a hurry and must have something to do.
After thinking about Qian Shuhua who was like a psycho just now, Ye Que opened his mouth and said, "Not good."
Two words can be regarded as chatting to death.
"this… "
"Come on, what's the matter?" Ye Que couldn't help but laugh at Qian Shu.
"The oiran reception will start today, we have to go there quickly, the road is a bit long, we need to take a boat, and Mister Wrong may have to travel for a while." Qian Shu smiled and took out a red invitation card from his bosom, and handed it to Ye Que.
The light rain on Tianjie is as moist as crisp, and the grass looks far away but there is nothing near it. The most important thing is a year of spring, which is absolutely better than Yanliu Manhuangdu.
After the spring rain, Luoyang, the capital of gods, is very beautiful. The Luoshui outside the city is even more rippling, with green trees and red flowers on the bank. Qian Shuxiao and Ye Que are going down the river in a luxury cruise ship. According to Qian Shuxiao, this oiran The location of the reception is different every time, this time it is on the armored dragon boat in the lower reaches of the Luoshui River.
A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org
When Ye Que boarded the boat, the gate of the General's Mansion also opened. Ye Yunhai led a group of people galloping out of the mansion. He also held a red invitation in his hand. There was also a boat waiting for him on the bank of Luoshui River. , there was a girl standing by the side of the boat, frowning and smiling to the bone.
In Chang'an City, thousands of miles away, there is an eighteen-storey building with a plaque in front of the building, which reads "Picking the Stars".
At this time, on the top floor of the 18th floor of Zhaixing, an old man's eyes were red, and thirteen copper coins stood upright in front of him in a daze, "The stars change, the mountain of corpses, the monsters come out, and the river pawns appear."
"The world is impermanent, where is the way of life?"
