276 Death without proof

Ice seeds were found in several corpses, and in addition to the fact that there was no evidence of the destruction of the corpses, everyone also found some other clues, such as the murderer, who appeared in the restaurant today. Who was the person who poisoned the corpse under the noses of everyone, but was not discovered by any of the masters present?

What's even more interesting is that Bao Yan found a record of a similar case from the dragon pattern scroll, and preferred that the suspect many years ago was Bai Yueyun.

It seems that the incident went around and around, and it went back to Yingxue Palace and the Bai family.

At this time, it was almost dawn, and everyone went back to the room to lie down for a while, and it was estimated that they would have to deal with more things tomorrow.

Gongsun was still struggling, but he was escorted back to the room by Zhao Pu and Xiao Sizi and forced him to rest. It's just that Gongsun is preoccupied, and he still thinks about the case over and over again when he lies on the bed.

The fourth son of the youngest son was really angry, and held down his father and patted his buttocks, "Sleep!" ”

Gongsun was yelled at by his son, but he was honest, and he had to sleep in the quilt obediently.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also seized the time to rest for a night.

It's just that the next morning, before dawn, Zhanzhao was woken up by the sound of Si Suo Suo from the bedside.

Zhan Zhao twisted his face, and saw that Bai Yutang had woken up, and was sitting on the bed, looking at a long list.

Zhan Zhao yawned and stretched, Bai Yutang's gaze immediately moved over to staring at the list, and asked him with a smile, "Wake up?" ”

Zhan Zhao opened his eyes early in the morning and saw Bai Yutang's smile first, so he was in a good mood, nodded, and looked at the list, "What are you doing?" ”

"Oh, tomorrow's menu." Bai Yutang said, "My mother has picked it out, let me watch it again, and let people prepare the dishes without any problems." ”

Zhan Zhao blinked and asked curiously, "You have a treat tomorrow?" ”

Bai Yutang smiled, looked at Zhanzhao a little speechlessly, and said, "Cat, you forgot?" Tomorrow is my father's birthday. ”

=0=

Zhanzhao opened his mouth wide, and after being stunned for a long time, he sat up with a "boom", "Huh?!" Tomorrow! ”

Bai Yutang also wanted to laugh when he saw his big reaction, reached out and patted him on the head, and said, "Don't worry, there will be something delicious tomorrow." As he spoke, he handed him the menu, "Take a look." ”

"It's not a matter of eating!" Zhanzhao hugged his head and leaned on his knees.

Bai Yutang was unexpected-Zhan Zhao didn't bother with the problem of eating, so he was entangled in the case?

"Don't think about the case when you first get up." Bai Yutang put the menu aside.

"It's not a case...... Zhan Zhao squinted at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang was completely stumped this time, Zhanzhao didn't study food and didn't investigate the case, so what was he doing?

Zhan Zhao raised his head and asked him very seriously, "In your eyes, I don't do anything other than eat and investigate cases?" ”

Bai Yutang was stunned for a moment, and then touched his chin...... It seems to be beginning to ponder.

Zhanzhao sighed, then hugged his head and said to himself, "It's over......"

"So serious?" Bai Yutang frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

"Birthday gift!" Zhan Zhaohuo raised his head, "I've said that I'll prepare a birthday gift when I come!" I've been investigating the case for the past two days! ”

Bai Yutang only understood at this moment, and couldn't cry or laugh, "What kind of birthday gift?" ”

"Of course I want to send it!" Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "You just went to the Demon Palace for a walk and gave so many gifts, I have no reason to come to your father's birthday banquet empty-handed." ”

So, Zhanzhao crossed his arms and thought - what should I do? What should I give?

"That's it." Bai Yutang pointed to the box at the end of the bed, which contained the twelve zodiac signs of jade.

"Is this a gift from your mother?" Zhan Zhao shook his head.

"That'...... That golden egg. Bai Yutang remembered.

"No, the emperor sent it." Zhanzhao was entangled, "What should I do?" ”

Bai Yutang stretched out his hands, "Why don't you call Daddy with me?" ”

Zhan Zhao kicked him.

Bai Yutang was helpless, "Then I don't know what to do." As he spoke, he got up and got out of bed

"What did you give your father?" Zhan Zhao climbed out of bed and asked curiously.

"Oh." Bai Yutang opened the cabinet on the side, "My father actually doesn't lack anything, and I am quite worried about giving him something every year, so I will buy and save anything interesting when I see it." ”

As he spoke, Bai Yutang took out a box from the cabinet and opened it.

Zhan Zhao leaned over and saw the moment Bai Yutang opened the box, and hurriedly took two steps back and covered his eyes, feeling that the golden light was so dazzling, the jewels were so dazzling, and a local tyrant's breath came to his face.

Zhanzhao looked at the box with a disgusted expression, "Cheesy! ”

Bai Yutang looked at the sky, "Cat, you're dazzled." As he spoke, he beckoned to him.

Zhan Zhao leaned over, but breathed a sigh of relief, it was indeed dazzling, the box was not gold and silver treasures, but some antique calligraphy and paintings, but some tattered.

Zhan Zhao rubbed his eyes and wondered - what was the golden light just now?

Bai Yutang flipped through it, took out a scroll and looked through it, as if he was selecting, and said, "My father is quite fond of antiques and picture scrolls, otherwise you would also pick the same?" ”

Zhan Zhao glanced at it, took a pen holder that looked the least valuable, and asked, "How much silver is this?" ”

"You just take it, why do you ask the silver?" Bai Yutang is ready to close the lid.

"Wait!" Zhan Zhao blocked the lid, squinted his eyes and asked Bai Yutang, "How much?" ”

Bai Yutang stretched out a finger to show him.

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in his heart that one tael of silver and ten taels of silver were basically impossible, and Bai Yutang should not use a box to hold a hundred taels of things, so he ......

Zhan Guard asked, "That'...... One thousand taels? ”

Bai Yutang blinked.

"Ten thousand?" The guards tilted their heads.

"Almost." Bai Yutang nodded.

"That's about how much that's checked?" The corners of Zhanzhao's mouth twitched.

Bai Yutang scratched his chin, "One hundred thousand ......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhanzhao stuffed the pen holder back, shook his hand and scolded and went out.

Bai Yutang listened carefully, and the cat seemed to be scolding, "Local tyrant! Unforgivable! ”

Bai Yutang was also quite helpless, and looked at the antiques in the box, in fact, these are rare things that he usually collects, and he likes it in one room and can use it for emergency on the other. For example, if you accidentally make Tianzun unhappy or lose your temper one day, give him one to divert his attention.

Bai Yutang picked up the pen holder and looked at it, this is a thing he likes very much, the pen holder used by the emperor Li Yu a hundred years ago, but he doesn't know whether he is new to his father, but he knows that his father is very interested in the antiques of Li Yu's period, now think about it, it probably has something to do with the opening of Tu Yunfeng a hundred years ago, right?

Putting the pen holder back, Bai Yutang found a small, brocade box in the corner of the box.

……

In the yard.

Zhan's guard squatted aside, supporting his chin with one hand on his knee, looking up at the white clouds in the sky in a daze, and sighed by the way.

When he was depressed, he felt someone poke him.

Zhan Zhao twisted his face, only to see Xiao Sizi standing beside him with a smile on his face, holding a box in his hand.

"Little fourth." Zhan Zhao felt hungry, so he leaned over to look at his box, "Dim Sum?" ”

Xiao Sizi hid the box, "No. ”

"Mysterious?" Zhanzhao touched his chin, "What's it?" ”

The fourth son is quite shy, "A birthday gift for Daddy Bai." ”

Zhan Zhao's eyelids were raised, and he was shocked - even the little fourth son was ready for a gift?

Zhan Zhao leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "What did you prepare?" ”

The little fourth son handed it over like a treasure, "But cats, you have to keep it secret, it's not good to tell others!" ”

Zhan Zhao nodded.

The little fourth son opened the box.

Zhan Zhao glanced at it and saw that it was a small rabbit strung with white beads.

Zhan Zhao looked at the little fourth son, "What is this?" ”

"This fruit is called longevity fruit, which comes from medicinal materials, and it is not easy to get sick when you put it around to repel mosquitoes." Xiao Sizi smiled, "When I sorted out the medicinal materials for my father, I picked out a hundred grains of exactly the same size, and I made them, and the rabbit was taught to me by Sister Yue'er." ”

Zhan Zhao touched his chin and nodded, "Oh, this one has sincerity and ideas, it's much stronger than that kind of local tyrant pen holder!" ”

"What tyrant?" The little fourth son tilted his head.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly stuffed the little rabbit back into the box for him, carefully covered it, and waved his hand, "No...... No. ”

"Cat, what are you going to give?" Xiao Sizi asked curiously, "Daddy and Jiujiu both said that your gift is so important this time!" ”

Zhanzhao became more and more nervous, "My gift...... Heavy or? ”

"Of course!" Xiao Sizi nodded, "Jiujiu said that it is very important!" Zheng Zheng said that if Daddy didn't like it in vain, maybe he wouldn't give it to him...... Not. ”

Before the little fourth son finished speaking, Zhanzhao reached out and pinched his cheeks and rubbed his face by the way, "What kind of door!" ”

……

The little fourth son was rubbed back and forth, left and right, and at this moment, Bai Yutang walked out and saw it, and he was helpless - Zhanzhao probably couldn't think of any gift to give, so he tossed the little fourth son out of anger.

Bai Yutang was holding a small brocade box in his hand, and he walked up to him and just wanted to hand it to Zhanzhao, but he heard a shout from outside, "Lord Zhan, Lord Zhan!" Incredible! ”

At the same time, there was a sentence from Chen Xing'er on the other side, "Young master, young master, it's terrible!" ”

and a few shadow guards in the courtyard next door, "Lord Wang! Incredible! ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other.

The little fourth son is holding his chin - a big thing!

Just thinking about it, Zhao Hu and Chen Xing'er ran in together, and the two shouted together.

"Young Master!"

"Zhan-sama!"

Zhan Zhao waved his hand at the two of them, and that meantβ€”one person said.

Zhao Hu looked at Chen Xing'er, obviously, Chen Xing'er was a little more talkative.

Chen Xing'er immediately said, "There are a lot of people from the rivers and lakes outside, saying that they are looking for Mr. Gongsun to go out!" ”

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Looking for Gongsun?" ”

Bai Yutang also felt fresh, why are a large number of people in the rivers and lakes looking for Gongsun?

He asked, "Who is sick or injured?" ”

Xiao Sizi's eyes also widened with curiosity - why did he come to his father to see a doctor, why did he say "no"? Could it be that his father has offended someone again?

"It's not!" Chen Xing'er was anxious, "Ding Wu, the head of the Ghost Gate, was found dead this morning!" And it is said that the way of death is the same as that of the previous monk. ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both stood up, "Ding Wu is dead? ”

Chen Xing'er nodded.

"Then the suspicion should be that the gangsters are cleaning up the portal, why are you looking for Gongsun?" Bai Yutang frowned.

"Those underworld people are unreasonable, saying that none of them killed Ding Wu, it was Gongsun who deliberately provoked them to kill each other in the underworld, and helped Bai Dao weaken the strength of the underworld." Zhao Hu seemed to be quite dissatisfied, "That transfer envoy also came to ask to see Master Bao, and now in the study, I don't know what he thinks of people." ”

Zhan Zhao was also dissatisfied, "Let Liu Hong look at Ding Wu, why did someone die under his nose?" ”

Zhao Hu shook his head, "But at this time, the underworld gang is not relenting, and they also said that they want to ask us to carry the corpses of the other two ghost sect disciples and the corpses of the Shaolin monk and the eldest and second of the young man out of the gang for comparison, suspecting that Gongsun is deliberately cheating, and invited several servants!" ”

After Zhao Hu finished speaking, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, and then frowned and looked at each other - is it a coincidence? Why did the corpse turn into powder and come to ask for the corpse?

Xiao Sizi also raised his face, although he was still young, he knew that the corpses yesterday had turned into powder, so is this situation what is usually said - there is no proof of death?!

Zhan Zhao suddenly sneered and asked Bai Yutang, "Will it be ...... That's why ice seeds were planted in corpses? ”

Bai Yutang nodded-in this way, there is no proof of death, and the underworld can say whatever he wants! Kaifeng Mansion and Yingxue Palace were charged with helping Bai Dao suppress the underworld. In addition, Bai Yueyun had been suspected of using spells to turn corpses into powder curses before, although it was many years ago, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not be dragged over to say it together! In this way, isn't the Bai family's crime of cursing the underworld and the Qianmen confirmed?

As he spoke, he heard the sound of many people walking out in the courtyard next door.

"Oops." Zhan Zhao patted Bai Yutang, "Will Zhao Pu come out to stand up for his grandson?" ”

Bai Yutang shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be a question of whether it will be or not, but it will definitely ......."

Zhan Zhao saw that he still had the heart to tease him, and he was helpless, so he took him out as soon as he dragged him.

Xiao Sizi hurriedly followed, looking very worried.

Walking out of the yard, Xiao Liang found the little fourth son, took his hand and saw that he was worried, and hurriedly comforted, "Jin'er, don't be afraid!" Whoever dares to be unfavorable to our father, I will beat the ground to find teeth...... Ah. ”

Before he finished speaking, he shuddered at the night fire on his head, "Don't swear!" ”

……

When everyone arrived at the closed mountain gate, they met Master Bao who also came out with the Taishi, followed by Liu Hong, who had low eyebrows and smooth eyes, probably admitting his mistake. But to be honest, let's not talk about whether Liu Hong is really in league with the Black Lotus gang behind the scenes, even if he is completely innocent and loyal...... It may not have been able to prevent this from happening. can quietly kill such a master as Ding Wu, this is definitely not something that Liu Hong and a few forbidden soldiers can defend.

"Gongsun Ce! Come out! The people of Kaifeng Mansion and the Bai family are all out of ......"

When a few underworld people saw that the mountain gate was closed and had no intention of opening, they shouted and were shouting, when suddenly a cold air came to their faces.

When they arrived at the mountain gate, the people who were about to open the door also found that there was an extra layer of frost around them.

Xiao Sizi quickly shrunk his neck...... It's cold.

Bai Yutang frowned, "Oh no." ”

"Bad again?" Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang was helpless and whispered, "My mother prepared a recipe for my father last night and stayed up all night, and just now the recipe was stuffed for me and said that I was going to make up for sleep, and I was probably woken up at this time." ”

Zhan Zhao opened his mouth wide, "Wouldn't that be a serious consequence?!" ”

Bai Yutang nodded.

Why did Zhanzhao have an empathetic and understanding expression? Because in his memory, what thing could make her mother Yin Lanci angry the most? It's just being woken up! It seems that several old people have said that Lu Xue'er has a temper similar to his mother...... That's absolutely the end of it.

Sure enough, the little minions who were shouting suddenly had a layer of frost on their bodies, and they couldn't speak or move anymore.

The snake monster slapped his hands helplessly...... The two of them shook like chaff, and after thawing, they asked someone to help them to the back.

The rest of the underworld people didn't dare to roar, and they all looked at the majestic palace gate of Yingxue Palace.

I saw a woman in a long white dress and a gauze hat sitting above the gate. Even if you can't see your face or your figure, just that posture and that long skirt make everyone swallow their saliva - beauty!

"Who is spreading wild at the gate of my Yingxue Palace!"

Who is on the castle tower? Naturally, it was Lu Xueer...... Tomorrow is her father-in-law's birthday, Lu Xue'er is the queen of a famous family, but she is also a witch-level, a master of both good and evil, so she naturally can't bear to find bad luck for her.

"Lu Xue'er, teach Gongsun Ce." The snake old monster stomped on the snake's head crutch, "You Yingxue Palace and Kaifeng Mansion conspired to favor Bai Dao, isn't it just to weaken the power of the underworld and prevent the underworld from breaking the curse!" ”

The corners of Lu Xue'er's mouth twitched, and she just wanted to scold, "You fart." ”

But I heard a cool voice behind me, "Who murdered my daughter?" ”

The snake old monster opened his mouth, but he swallowed back a sentence in the back, who was standing behind Lu Xue'er? Lu Tianhan.

Lu Tianhan also brought out Lu Ling'er by his side, and Lu Ling'er was holding the little fourth son in his hand.

A large group of people came out just now, and Lu Ling'er saw the little fourth son at a glance, so she hugged her over and prepared to "play" for a while.

Xiao Liang followed and caught up, and wanted to take the little fourth son down, but standing on the palace gate and looking down, he felt that his vision was clear, so he lay down next to Lu Tianhan to watch the excitement.

At the same time, the door opened.

Master Bao was the first to walk out, and everyone behind him was there, except for the three old men, Tianzun, Yin Hou and Wusha...... Where are these three old immortals? On Tu Yun Peak!

At this time, the peak of Tuyun Peak.

Tianzun crouched next to a fallen inscription, looking at the tunnel below, or rather the chimney.

Wusha took a shovel and dug the ground behind a pile of rubble on the side, and asked Yin Hou, who was holding his arms and commanding on the side, "Are you sure you are here?" ”

Yin Hou turned his head and asked Tianzun, "Old ghost, where did you bury it back then?" ”

"Over there!" Tianzun stretched out his hand and pointed to the place where Wusha stood.

"Are you really sure this time?" Wusha looked at the dozen or so pits that had been dug out beside him.

"Hmm...... Possible. Tianzun continued to be unsure.

There is no sand to look at the sky, it is estimated that it will take a day to dig today, Bai Yuelin should have let Yin Hou come up back then, why should he let Tianzun go up? Forgetfulness is like this.

was depressed, Wusha felt a shovel go down, touched something hard, and there was a "bang" sound.

Tianzun and Yin Hou both heard it and hurried over.

The three old men pulled away the dirt together, and at a glance, they saw an ebony box.

"Found it!" Tianzun jumped up.

Wusha and Yin Hou breathed a sigh of relief - they had finally found it, and they thought they were going to dig up the entire mountain.

Wusha and Yin Hou dug the box, and Tianzun squatted aside to watch the scenery...... The clouds and mist in front of him dispersed, and the Yingxue Palace in the distance came into view. Tianzun blinked and looked at it for a while, then turned around and reached out and pulled the belt behind him.

"What?" He was looking back with the waiter who was studying the contents of the box.

"There are a lot of people at the gate of Yingxue Palace!" Tianzun pointed.

Wusha and Yin Hou both came over - sure enough...... There were a lot of people in front of the door.

The three of them glanced at each other, and were puzzled, when they saw a hand suddenly stretched out on the edge of the cliff.

Then, a head also poked out, and I saw a young man with a muddy face hanging on the edge of the cliff on Tu Yunfeng, panting and saying, "Finally, finally...... It's coming up! ”

Before he finished speaking, he looked up and saw three people squatting on the edge of the cliff.

The young man blinked, and suddenly shouted excitedly to Yin Hou, "Immortal ......"

It's just that before he finished speaking, he saw Yin Hou suddenly stretch out his hand and poke it lightly at his head......

"Ahh......h

Tianzun and the sandless probe looked down...... Under Tu Yun Peak, the little tuni that was hung by the rope dangled at the foot of the mountain, and fell to the ground after the last one.

Tu Xian was lying on the ground and panting tiredly, touching his head and smirking - the fairy just played me!

Tianzun and Wusha subconsciously looked back at Yin Hou, and after a long time, the two of them shook their heads helplessly and spit out, "What a grievance!" ”

Yin Hou also sighed.
