Chapter 34, Dismounting
The central street of the township where the Ma family is located, its prosperity is not much worse than that of Xihefang, it is noon, the sun is blazing, and the crowds are still bustling and endless.
On the street, Qin Shuyu and Wang Junyao have fallen off their horses, ready to find someone to inquire, whether there is a restaurant here with wine, food, color and fragrance, and it is best to have a grade of incense in Xihefang.
After all, from morning to now, Qin Shuyu has only drunk a few cups of tea at his future father-in-law's house, and he has long been so hungry that his chest is close to his back.
It just so happened that at this time, Chiyan and Lan Feng rushed to Qin Shuyu's side with the people from the county government, and under the guidance of their two semi-acquaintances, they soon entered the best local restaurant, Laiyun Restaurant.
Qin Shuyu and the others wanted to go up to a private room on the second floor, while Wang Junyao's subordinates stayed on the first floor, they wanted to eat meat and drink a lot, and they didn't want to be too restrained.
After eating, Lan Feng whispered: "Young master, I have already passed on your news to the eldest young master of the Ma family, and he has also heard from him." ”
Qin Shuyu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother Lanfeng, did he bring out the six dead coachmen?"
Lan Feng nodded and said, "It's true, the room where these six people live together is arranged separately, and they died of illness almost at the same time, and their deaths are the same." ”
Qin Shuyu sneered: "Heh, the disease occurs at the same time! If it is really caused by the medicine prescribed by Dr. Xu, it will be because of their different physiques, the heart injury is different, and the time of onset will be different, which undoubtedly proves that after the six coachmen took the medicine, their hearts were hit hard at the same time. ”
Chi Yan frowned and said, "But according to the news from the eldest young master of the Ma family, there are no obvious scars on the chests of these six people, not even the marks on the size of fingernails, and there are no blood stains in their mouths. ”
Qin Shuyu asked, "What about the back?"
Lan Feng replied: "It is true that two people have suffered knife wounds on their backs and are lying on the bed, but the eldest young master of the Ma family said that there are no bruises on the backs of these two people near the heart, even if someone uses a silver needle as a hidden weapon and pierces the heart, it will at least leave a slight blood mark." ”
Wang Junyao raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it possible to be erased?"
Lan Feng shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, the eldest young master of the Ma family has been guarding near the room where these six people lived, and he didn't hear the movement of the doors and windows opening and closing, and after hearing their cries of pain, he also rushed in as soon as possible, and the murderer couldn't have time to clear the blood stains of the six people at the same time." ”
Qin Shuyu lightly clasped the table and said, "It seems that this murderer used some special means to make the wound close instantly, and the blood could not seep out." ”
Wang Junyao was stunned and said, "Is there such a powerful character in Uncle Ma's family?"
Qin Shuyu said with a smile: "The Ma family also has more than two hundred people, and it is not a miracle to produce one or two talents with careful thinking and clever means. ”
Chi Yan snorted heavily, "It's a pity that it's used in the wrong place. ”
Lan Feng smiled and said, "I'm getting more and more curious, who is it, and what kind of ingenious methods are used to make the land?"
Qin Shuyu also smiled: "Perhaps, going to see the bodies of those people will be rewarding." ”
Suddenly, his face changed and he asked, "By the way, Brother Lanfeng, has Ma Ziwei heard any news about his father." ”
Wang Junyao instantly sat up straight and listened with a worried face.
Lan Feng said: "The head of the Ma family is still the same, rarely cares about the affairs of the Ma family, as soon as he gets out of bed, he goes into the Ma family's study and spends his days holding books all day long." ”
Qin Shuyu was stunned for a moment, looked at Wang Junyao, and said, "Junyao, with your understanding, your Uncle Ma likes to read very much?"
It was hard for him to imagine that a rugged strong man would love books.
Wang Junyao shook his head and said strangely: "No, when Uncle Ma came to visit the county government, he often said that he would have a headache when he saw the dense lines of words." ”
Lan Feng hurriedly asked, "Did the young owner see anything greasy?"
Chi Yan and Wang Junyao also leaned over a bit.
Qin Shuyu said: "The so-called thing is abnormal, there must be a demon, the master of the Ma family may want to convey a message to the people outside, or he is looking for an answer in the book." ”
Immediately, he looked at Lan Feng again and asked, "Brother Lan Feng, how is the Ma family master's complexion?"
Lan Feng said: "The face of the Ma family master is as usual, it doesn't look like there is something wrong with the body. ”
Qin Shuyu said: "I wonder if the breath fluctuations can still be detected in the Ma family master. ”
Lan Feng said: "Young Master Ma said that the momentum on his father's body is just not as grand as before. ”
Qin Shuyu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to Wang Junyao, and said, "Junyao, it seems that my previous guess was wrong, your Uncle Ma may not have interrupted the poison of soul dispersion, his cultivation is still there, maybe he was just suppressed by some kind of medicine." ”
The gloom on Wang Junyao's little face lightened a little, and he said, "Presumably, this is the cleverness of Liu Cheng and the concubine." They know very well the truth that they can't do too much, if Uncle Ma's cultivation is completely abolished, it will be difficult for outsiders to feel any breath, and over time, they will become suspicious, and then they will find an opportunity to test, once this matter is confirmed, then the Ma family will soon usher in a catastrophe. ”
Qin Shuyu smiled: "At this point, Junyao, you can see it more thoroughly than me. ”
Wang Junyao's face was slightly red, and he said, "What's the matter, I'm just pushing the boat down the river based on the news you have worked hard to get." ”
Qin Shuyu smiled and patted Wang Junyao's hand, got up and said, "Okay, let's rush to Ma's house, so as not to make some people wait too much." ”
Immediately, the group got up and walked towards Ma's house.
......
The Ma family's mansion, like an ordinary manor, is surrounded by high walls, which is a castle.
The difference is that in other manors, the main entrance is a vermilion lacquered wooden door in order to show festive hospitality, while the Ma family stands a black lacquered iron door more than two zhang high, revealing a solemn atmosphere, but also feels a trace of coldness, which makes people feel depressed.
Especially today, the people who entered and exited the gate of the Ma family were all solemn, and an indifferent atmosphere that rejected people thousands of miles away attacked Qin Shuyu and his party who had just arrived at the door.
However, they will not be affected, because they are not guests.
Seeing Qin Shuyu and the others walking straight towards the gate from a distance, the two big men of the Ma family who were holding big knives trotted to them, fought with two knives, and shouted: "Who are you? ”
Wang Junyao stepped forward, held the token, raised his eyebrows and said sharply: "Miss Ben is Wang Junyao, the captain of the arrest team under the jurisdiction of the county lieutenant of this county, and I received the murder case reported by your Ma family this morning, and I am here to investigate. ”
Generally speaking, it was rude for Ma Zilu not to come to the reception, and it was extremely rude if he didn't want to even explain to his subordinates.
Or, this is a deliberate act he did to give himself and others a disadvantage.
Therefore, she didn't give a good look either.
The two big men glanced at each other, then moved out of the way, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it turned out to be a person from the county government, forgive me for being rude just now, Miss Wang, please come in, my second young master has already prepared wine and food and waited." ”
Wang Junyao didn't bother to pay attention to them, shook his hand and walked over.
The two big men blocked the middle again, stopped Qin Shuyu and the others, and scolded directly: "Who are you? I didn't hear what Uncle Ben said just now, the Ma family is not a guest today, get out!"
Qin Shuyu understood at this moment, these two servants were obviously embarrassed by Ma Zilu's intentions.
But he didn't want to be familiar with the two subordinates, so he smiled and said, "In Xia Qin Shuyu, I came to learn how to investigate the case from Miss Wang." ”
Chi Yan added in a deep voice: "This is the young owner of my Qinjiazhuang in Xihe Town. ”
Hearing this, the big man on the right raised his eyebrows and smiled contemptuously: "Qin Shuyu, hehe, is it the waste young owner who was kicked out of Yunxiang Building by the eldest son of the Xiang family not long ago?"
"Hahaha!"
The man on the left laughed too.
Syllable!
The Red Flame Tiger was stunned, and he couldn't help but make a move.
But seeing a fiery red figure on the right flickering, she raised her palm, and couldn't help but say, and threw the big man who insulted Qin Shuyu to the ground with one slap.
Wang Junyao glared at a pair of fiery red eyes and reprimanded: "Even a mad dog like you dare to grin at the friend invited by Miss Ben, I really don't know whether to live or die." ”
Red Flame and Blue Wind said goodbye to each other, not daring to look at each other.
I don't know, whether they can't bear to look at the bright red five-finger prints on the big man's face, or are they afraid of the terrifying momentum that Wang Junyao will burst out at this moment.
Qin Shuyu also touched his nose, and sighed in his heart, he had enjoyed Junyao's gentleness and intimacy all morning, and he almost forgot that this fiery rouge tiger launched a female threat, and he didn't look at his eyebrows.
The big man who fell to the ground, covering his hot and painful face on the left side with one hand, pointed at Wang Junyao with the other, and said in a trembling voice: "You...... How dare you hit me?"
The buzzing in his ears kept buzzing, and his mind was even more mushy, he couldn't understand that even if the people of the county government were on the territory of the Ma family, no one dared to beat the people of the Ma family for no reason.
This is a provocation to the majesty of the entire Ma family, and often those who dare to do so pay a heavy price for it.
Wang Junyao is no exception.
Because, another big man has called more than 20 people dressed as guards and surrounded them.
Wang Junyao did not retreat at all, she pulled out her sword glowing with scarlet flames, pointed at the big man lying on the ground, and snorted coldly: "I beat you to save your life." ”
The flames in her eyes seemed to burn more and more, but her eyes became colder and colder.
Hit you to save your life!
Even Qin Shuyu sounded like this sentence was extremely arrogant, but he had to praise Wang Junyao, she knew her mind too well.
Just now, if she hadn't made the first move, then it would have been impossible for the big man lying on the ground to raise his hand at this moment.
A guard captain couldn't help but snort: "Miss Wang, if you don't give an explanation to the Ma family today, even if you are the daughter of the county commander, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to leave unharmed." ”
The guards shouted in unison: "Confess! Confess!"
For a time, the sound shook the sky.
Wang Junyao Ling Ran was not afraid, and said coldly: "You can try." ”
As soon as the word "try" came out, she pointed her sword directly at the captain of the guard, and a wave of scarlet flames instantly swept through the sword body, bursting out with a fiery aura and fiercely pounced on the guards in front.
The guards had no choice but to raise their sleeves to cover their faces, and the heat wave burned their faces with burning pain.
Only the captain with the dual cultivation of the Spirit Sea Realm could still stand up, but the fear in his eyes could not be hidden.
