late at night.
Qingfeng College gradually returned to calm. Except for a few guards who were arranged by Xie Qiufeng to guard the library, the others went back to rest.
The oil lamps were extinguished quietly, and the half-moon hanging high in the sky was replaced by a faint moonlight.
The guards braced themselves and took precautions. After such an incident happened, it was hard for them not to take it seriously.
The shadowy reflections on the ground looked blurry, adding a bit of chilliness to the bitingly cold night.
Outside the gate of Qingfeng Academy, Qin Wulei and others stopped and looked back.
The others were fine, but Qin Wulei was a little reluctant to leave. After all, this was the place where she had lived for six years. During these six years, she still had a relationship with Qingfeng College, and Qingfeng College was like her second school. It felt like a hometown, especially when she watched batches of new students gradually grow up, slowly become senior students, and finally graduate from the college and go to the outside world to work hard. She felt very happy in her heart. But now, she has to bid farewell to this life and leave. This is the place.
Let's go. After a long while, Qin Wulei turned around, let out a long sigh, and then said to the people around him.
In the courtyard behind Heng Seng Medical Center.
The body that fell to the ground had completely lost its temperature, its skin had hardened, and its hair was hit by snowflakes falling from the branches, gradually freezing it and slowly forming an ice sculpture.
Brother Zhang.
Brother Zhang.
Zhang Heng had already returned to the inn, but he was still holding the paper bag he took with him when he left.
You guys haven't rested yet. Zhang Heng smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't be so polite. Although we are not from the same sect, we are no worse than our fellow disciples."
A young man asked in surprise: Why did Brother Zhang bring the food back
The other two people also looked at Zhang Heng in surprise. Didn't Zhang Heng say he would bring food to Junior Brother Chen
Alas, it sounds like I was not thinking carefully. Zhang Heng sighed. He said helplessly: When I brought the food to the Hengsheng Medical Center, I discovered that the Hengsheng Medical Center was closed, and the gates outside the walls of the following houses were also closed. I saw that the old man guarding the door was already old, and it was so cold at night, so I couldn't bear to wake him up, so I had to come back with food.
After a pause, he apologized: In this case, I can only temporarily aggrieve Junior Brother Chen.
When the three of them heard this, they looked at Zhang Heng helplessly and thought to themselves: Senior Brother Zhang is good at everything. He's just too kind-hearted.
Based on their understanding of Zhang Heng, they had no doubts about Zhang Heng's words.
Just like the stubborn guard they met this afternoon when they went to Qingfeng College, Zhang Henggui, a disciple of the Hanlin Sect, was so polite and polite to him. It was enough to show that Zhang Henggui was really a good man.
Forget it, if Junior Brother Chen is really hungry. Naturally, we will go to the medical center, so we don’t have to worry about him. A young man said.
Hearing this, everyone nodded.
Zhang Heng thought for a while, nodded and said: That's okay. They've all rested. At worst, we'll go see him early tomorrow morning.
The night passed slowly, and a hole seemed to be ripped open in the sky. Slowly a white light came through.
When the sun rises, a new day begins.
But when Zhang Heng and others arrived at the hospital, they stopped at the entrance of the house. All of their faces were extremely ugly, even containing endless anger.
Junior Brother Chen
Senior Brother Chen
Several people gathered around.
He. Zhang Heng seemed to be the most anxious. He punched out and smashed the ice cube into pieces.
The ice cubes flew in all directions, and many small fragments of them exploded on everyone. They even received a few blows on the face, but they did not pay attention at all. Their eyes still fell on the body on the ground that had lost its temperature. , no, it should be said on the corpse.
Another disciple who also came from Luo Yong's sect, his eyes were about to split at this time, he shouted, squatted down, and lifted the body up. There was no breathing, no heartbeat, and the frozen blood on the ground. Flowers, everything proves that Junior Brother Chen is dead, and from the expression on his face, it can be seen how much pain he experienced before his death.
The young man stared blankly at the stiff corpse lifted up in his hands and said: dead.
Zhang Heng and others looked at each other, and they all saw the heaviness and worry in each other's eyes.
Investigate, we must find out clearly. No matter why Junior Brother Chen died, I will never spare the person who caused his death. Zhang Heng shouted, let’s go, go to the hospital to ask for details first.
What to do with Senior Brother Chen's body? The young man hesitated.
First carry Junior Brother Chen's body into the house. Zhang Hengdao: For the current plan, only by investigating the cause of Junior Brother Chen’s death can we find the culprit, otherwise we will also be implicated.
Several people looked at each other and nodded: It all depends on Senior Brother Zhang.
Not long after, they asked the people at Hengsheng Medical Center and found nothing unusual. After that, they invited a well-known old doctor who was in charge of the medical center and paid a large sum of money to invite him to examine Junior Brother Chen's body, hoping that The root cause of Junior Brother Chen's death can be found from Junior Brother Chen's body.
The old doctor followed a group of people to the house of the mansion.
Zhang Heng and others silently stepped aside, leaving enough room for the old doctor to perform.
The old doctor gently put down the small wooden box on his back and began to examine it.
After a while.
Old sir, could you please tell me why our junior brother died? Zhang Heng was the first to rush up and ask.
The old doctor had a trace of doubt on his face and said: According to my examination, the deceased should have been strongly stimulated before death, which caused the qi and blood to flow backwards and broke through the relatively thin blood vessels in the body, causing the organs in the body to be blocked by blood, and finally suddenly Death suddenly. There was actually a reason why he was confused, but in my many years of medical experience, I had never encountered such a situation. Generally speaking, only older people with weakened organ strength may be stimulated to become like this. Among young people, I have never seen or even heard of it.
He took a deep breath and said in an incredible tone: Judging from the physical quality of the deceased, it is really hard for me to imagine what kind of strong stimulation is required to cause such a result.
But to say that the deceased was not caused by stimulation, I really can’t find any other results.
After finishing the conversation, Zhang Heng and others showed a look of understanding on their faces.
Zhang Heng cupped his hands and said in a low voice: I'm sorry, sir.
As soon as the old doctor left, the room fell into silence again.
But the other disciple from Luo Yong's sect had a face full of hatred and his teeth were chattering.
It took the young man Lin Feng and Fu Yi a long time before he gritted his teeth and said two names. "Just wait. The teacher will never sit idly by and ignore Senior Brother Chen's death."
Zhang Heng's face was filled with guilt and he said: "It's my fault. If I had come in last night to take a look, maybe I could have saved Junior Brother Chen."
The young man shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Zhang has a kindhearted heart and can be learned from the sun and the moon. How can he say that he is at fault?"
We should go back to Jingmen City Province first and report everything here to the teacher and the others. The teacher and the others will make the final decision on everything. Another young man suggested in a deep voice.
Several people thought for a moment and finally nodded in agreement.
Not long after, several fierce horses left Jianglong County. As soon as they entered the main road outside, they jumped at high speed and disappeared outside the city in the time it took to burn an incense stick.
Jingmen City Province, Weapon Refiner Guild.
Time flies by. Zhang Kuang, Luo Yong, Ling Changqing, Hanlin Fu Yuanshan and others are all busy for the upcoming Jingmen City Provincial Youth Masters Promotion Tournament. However, while they are busy, they are also sending people to pay attention to the movements of Zhang Heng and his party. , once they come back, they will go over as soon as possible to understand the situation.
When Zhang Heng and his party came back, the news of their return reached the ears of Zhang Kuang, Luo Yong and others almost at the same time.
They immediately sent someone to take Zhang Heng and his party to the governor's mansion.
I don't know how well they completed the task. Luo Yong paced back and forth in the hall, looking forward to it. With Brother Han's eldest disciple Zhang Heng leading the team, they should have completed the task well.
Zhang Heng is still a relatively trustworthy and reliable junior in the eyes of these five-star weapon refiners. This is because Zhang Heng can handle the tasks assigned by Hanlin beautifully every time, never fails, and his behavior is very mature. They never offend others easily, and their communication skills are so strong that they can't help but raise eyebrows. Therefore, as long as Zhang Heng takes action, they will feel extremely at ease.
Hanlin also valued his eldest disciple Zhang Heng very highly. He smiled and said: Brother Luo is very complimentary. Zhang Heng is not as good as Brother Luo's talented disciple Li Qingyang. At that time, Li Qingyang was the Jingmen City Provincial Champion in that Youth Masters Competition. Now I am afraid that he has begun to try to reach the realm of five-star weapon refiners.
Just as several people were complimenting each other, there were urgent footsteps outside.
I saw Zhang Heng walking in quickly, holding a person in his arms, followed by several people.
Luo Yong's expression changed and he immediately walked over. Without waiting for Zhang Heng to speak, he took the person Zhang Heng was holding. However, when he felt the coldness of the person's body, his eyes suddenly shrank and widened in anger. Shout out: Who killed my apprentice
This sound almost overturned the entire hall.
Fu Yuanshan, Ling Changqing and Hanlin also walked over quickly, their faces a little ugly.
Zhang Kuang frowned and said nothing.
A young man behind the teacher Zhang Heng suddenly knelt down and said loudly and painfully: Please make the decision for Brother Chen, teacher.
Luo Yong took a deep breath and said with a trembling voice: Tell me, who harmed your senior brother
The young man suddenly raised his head, faced Luo Yong's angry gaze, and shouted loudly: It's Lin Feng and Fu Yi, Senior Brother Chen was pissed to death by them. To be continued. .
