Chapter 29, Old Man Yan
Jiang Ruoyun nodded, "Although I haven't seen Big Brother Tang Yuan himself, I will never be wrong about his unique beastly aura, it must be him." ”
"How can this be," Qiao Xue'er took two steps back in disbelief, muttering in her mouth: "Brother Tang obviously asked me to meet in the broken temple yesterday, how could he appear in Qingzhi Mountain." ”
"Broken Temple? is the place where Yan He died? Brother Tang Yuan asked you to go?" Jiang Ruoyun said suspiciously.
Qiao Xue'er also found a lot of unreasonableness at the moment, and finally told the ins and outs of the matter.
"Yesterday evening, I received a note saying that I was asked to meet in the broken temple in the east of the city, and I saw that the handwriting was that of Brother Tang, so I went to the appointment, but when I came to the broken temple, I found Yan He lying there dying, with a dagger stuck in his chest. ”
Even thinking about it, Qiao Xue'er was a little afraid, after all, she had never seen such a scene.
"I walked towards him in a panic, thinking about seeing if I could save his life, but I found that his face was full of pain, and he stabbed him with the dagger in his chest with both hands......" Qiao Xue'er's words were interrupted.
Jiang Ruoyun said with some incomprehension: "He stabbed himself with a dagger, do you mean he committed suicide?"
Qiao Xue'er nodded, shook her head again and said: "I'm not sure, when I got closer, he also found me, stopped the dagger in his hand, motioned me to pull it out, and shouted vaguely 'Save me...', but after I pulled it out, he lost his breath, and at this time, the prison officer rushed over with a group of people." ”
"If you didn't kill it, why would you admit it?" Jiang Ruoyun wondered.
"At that time, I was very flustered, thinking that Yan He had teased me before, and thinking that it was Brother Tang who asked me to come here to meet, so I secretly thought that Brother Tang killed Yan He, so I ......" Qiao Xue'er was a little self-deprecating, and said stupidly, if it weren't for what Jiang Ruoyun said, she was afraid that she would mistakenly think that Yan He was killed by Tang Yuan at this moment.
Jiang Ruoyun and Lu Feng were both a little touched when they heard this, they didn't expect Qiao Xue'er to sacrifice her life for Tang Yuan's sake, although she was a little impulsive, but this was not a reflection of the depth of love.
"Damn, who set this trap," Jiang Ruoyun said angrily, his little face full of anger.
Lu Feng pondered, what was the matter of the people who set up such a dead situation to frame Qiao Xue'er, if it weren't for the fact that they met Tang Yuan by chance, the layout of this situation could be said to be seamless, which showed how deep the city government of the people behind the scenes was.
It can be seen from all kinds of details that the person who laid out the layout knew Qiao Xueer's personality very well, and also knew the relationship between her and Tang Yuan, so he knew how to use Tang Yuan's relationship to layout.
"Is the note Tang Yuan asked you to still have?" Lu Feng had been thinking silently, this was the first time he had spoken since he came to prison.
"The note was destroyed by me in the broken temple, and I am afraid that it will affect Brother Tang. Qiao Xue'er was a little ashamed, and then pleaded with Jiang Ruoyun: "Help me keep an eye on Brother Tang Yuan, I'm afraid that he will do something because he is worried about me."
"Okay, I'll go to him later" Jiang Ruoyun promised, and then chatted with Qiao Xue'er about some details when the temple was broken, but he didn't have the slightest clue, judging from the existing clues, he only knew that Yan He was killed and cleverly blamed Qiao Xue'er.
"Let's go and look at his autopsy codex, maybe we can know some clues," Lu Feng said, although Yan He is dead, sometimes the corpse can 'speak'.
"Okay" Jiang Ruoyun responded obediently, and the two said goodbye to Qiao Xue'er.
Watching the two leave, Qiao Xue'er sat down cross-legged again, but at the moment her mood was much more relaxed, after all, some doubts in her heart were solved.
After Lu Feng and the others left the prison cell, they found the prison officer, and after Jiang Ruoyun confessed that there was something hidden in Qiao Xue'er's case, the prison officer happily cooperated, even if he wanted to look through the post-mortem codex, he handed it over without the slightest hesitation.
Jiang Ruoyun was a little surprised, originally thought that it would take many times to see the codex, but he didn't expect the prison officer's attitude to be so good.
Putting aside the relationship between Lu Feng's identity as a prison officer, the emergence of a new development in the case is also a good thing for the prison officer, after all, it is the most important thing to successfully resolve the contradiction between Qiao Yan and the two mansions without any more deaths.
In the process of taking the hand again, the prison officer secretly stuffed the Nian Zhi of Qinglong Town to Lu Feng, because Lu Feng had warned that his identity was not to be revealed, so the two behaved normally in front of Jiang Ruoyun.
Lu Feng didn't get any useful clues after reading the codex, what was recorded in this codex was basically similar to the death described by Qiao Xue'er, and there was nothing unusual about it, but the more this happened, the more unusual it became.
"I'm going to go to Yan's Mansion to check on Yan He's body, and the prison officer will send someone with me?" Lu Feng asked.
"Yue An, you go with the two of you and cooperate with their actions," the prison officer ordered.
Yue An still had a lot of things to deal with at hand, and he seemed a little reluctant, but after hearing the secret words of the prison officer, Yue An trembled, and became extremely respectful at the moment, nodding at Lu Feng and obeying his orders.
Lu Feng smiled slightly, he was very satisfied with the change in Yue An's attitude, he naturally knew that the prison officer would not be stupid enough to reveal his identity, and he must have said something else that would be beneficial to Yue An.
"Do you think the prison officer is a little strange?" Jiang Ruoyun asked Lu Feng softly.
"Yes, maybe he also wants to solve this troublesome matter as soon as possible," Lu Feng sloppily and confused.
......
Yan Mansion is also one of the eight official mansions in Qinglong Town, and unlike Jiang Mansion, Yan Mansion is very united internally, there is only one mansion master, and the dead Yan He is the grandson of this mansion master.
Although Yan He's parents also gave birth to a younger sister to him, Yan He is the only heir of Yan Mansion after all, and the impact of his death on Yan Mansion is huge, no wonder Yan Jiang, the nearly 100-year-old mansion master, was so angry that he almost killed Qiao Mansion directly.
At this moment, Yan's mansion is full of mourning, as far as the eye can see, there are white silk lanterns, crying and moaning, although Yan He is lazy and lazy on weekdays, hooligans and lustful, but he is still very good for his family and subordinates, and has a good popularity in the mansion.
"Wait until you can speak kindly, don't hit the anger of the old man," Yue An advised, after all, if he rashly went to open the coffin for an autopsy, no one would be afraid that he would not agree.
Lu Feng and Jiang Ruoyun nodded, knowing that the trip would not be too smooth.
Yue An said to the two family members standing at the gate of the Yan Mansion: "I am tired of reporting it, and Yue An of the prison mansion asks to see me. ”
Soon a middle-aged man rushed out to greet him, but his face was dejected, he looked lifeless, there was no smile on his face, and even his speech was very pale, "Lord Yue, please," the man made a gesture of please.
For this middle-aged Jiang Ruoyun had a relationship, knowing that he was Yan He's father Yan Zhengchi, it was really a little sighing to see him change from being tough and majestic in the past to being so decadent and old now.
The group slowly came to the hall of Yanfu, where the word 'Dian' was hung on the foyer in the center, surrounded by weeping women and children, and a gold-inlaid rosewood coffin was placed in the middle, and a picture of the death was depicted on the coffin.
Lu Feng and the three of them took the incense and candles handed by the Yan family, and stepped forward to offer incense according to the custom, the deceased is the greatest, even if he was disliked during his lifetime, but he had no complaints after his death.
After the incense was applied, Lu Feng slowly got up, and under Yue An's signal, he spoke to the most dignified person in the crowd: "Lord Yan, I am afraid that there is something else wrong with the death of Yan Gongzi, can we open the coffin again to check it, so as not to make it unjust." ”
With a "bang", I saw that the chair next to Old Man Yan was shattered by his palm, and sawdust was splashed all around, his pale and colorless face was full of anger, and he glared at Lu Feng and shouted: "The deceased has passed away, how can you open the coffin and disturb his peace, get out of me..."
As the old man's words fell, the people around them glared at the three of Lu Feng with hostility, as if they were about to kill the three of them alive.
"Old Man Yan is angry, let's leave," Yue An was a person who observed words and emotions after all, and immediately pulled Lu Feng's arm to signal him to leave.
"We have no malice, we just want to return Qiao Xue'er's innocence" A glimmer of light flashed in Lu Feng's eyes, without the slightest fear, and spoke again.
After hearing Qiao Xue'er's three words, Old Man Yan was angry, and shouted: "Qiao Xue'er has conclusive evidence of killing me He'er, and he pleaded guilty on the spot, so it should be ...... to accompany He'er to the funeral."
After speaking, a pale white wave of qi spread from his body, heading straight for Lu Feng and the three of them.
"Be careful," Lu Feng shouted softly.
The three of them were swept by this wave of qi and fell backwards, falling four or five meters away, Old Man Yan's strength can be seen, if you want to kill them, it is easy to kill.
Lu Feng was the most shocked person, after all, he had walked the martial arts path, how could he not feel the aura exuded by Old Man Yan, he was definitely a master who had penetrated the Seven Spirits to reach the Gathering Spirit Realm, and he was also the top existence in the Gathering Spirit Realm.
"Get out of ...... for me," Old Man Yan yelled angrily.
"Let's leave here first and then think about it in the long run" Jiang Ruoyun said softly, the current situation is obviously impossible to check the cause of Yan He's death, if it weren't for the face of the prison mansion, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to leave so easily.
If the bright one can't do it, then you can only come to the dark one, but after seeing the strength of Old Man Yan, it is not easy to come to the dark, and the autopsy is necessary, otherwise the real cause of Yan He's death cannot be ascertained at all.
"Brother Yue has run away in vain," Lu Feng thanked after walking out of the Yan Mansion.
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's a trivial matter, if you have something to do in the future, you will come to the prison to find me, but I'm afraid that the autopsy can't be done, and you can also see the temper of Old Man Yan," Yue An said with a little fear, and then said goodbye to Lu Feng and left.
Jiang Ruoyun dusted off the hem of his clothes and said, "Why don't we go to Brother Tang Yuan first, it's been delayed for so long, it will be bad if he knows that Sister Qiao has an accident." ”
