Zhanzhao had a "good dream" all night, got up satisfied, and was having breakfast...... Outside, Mahan ran in.

The four guards of Kaifeng Mansion ran inside and shouted, "Lord Zhan! ”

Zhan Zhao blinked...... Living up to expectations, the four guards shouted, "Something's wrong!" ”

The others who were eating breakfast nodded in satisfaction.

Zhanzhao chewed a fritter and looked at the four of them.

Gongsun was curious while serving porridge to the fourth son, "What's wrong?" ”

"Someone's killed!" Once again, the four guards lived up to expectations.

Zhan Zhao grabbed the fritters with one hand and grabbed Bai Yutang's hand with the other, and went to investigate the murder.

The little fourth son also grabbed a fritter and went to get a small medicine box.

Gongsun knocked on the porridge bowl at him.

The fourth son grabbed Gongsun's wrist and said, "A manly man, career is the most important!" After saying that, he dragged his father away.

After everyone present was stunned for a moment, they turned their faces to look at Zhao Pu, who was eating noodles seriously.

The Nine Princes looked at everyone puzzled--what are you doing? Uncle has already had a successful career, and eating breakfast is even more important!

Xiao Liangzi ran to chase Xiao Sizi with a porridge bowl, and everyone looked at Zhao Pu, who was then eating noodles.

Zhao Pu is dissatisfied - look at the fart!

Long Qiaoguang shook his head - you are not as sensible as your apprentice, and you deserve to be single for the rest of your life!

Ouyang snorted and drank a bowl of porridge, and ran to see what was happening, so there was no need to dispatch the Imperial City Army.

On the other side, the door opened...... Lin Yehuo, who had just gotten up, walked out while rubbing his neck, "Oops, pillow!" ”

Zou Liang went up and knocked on it with his hand.

Lin Yehuo covered his neck and looked at him vigilantly, "Why are you?" ”

Zou Liang pointed to his nose, "I belong to a tiger." ”

Lin Yehuo blinked, "Aren't you a dog?" Looks like ......."

The corners of Zou Liang's mouth twitched, what can you see?

"Besides, what do you have to do with me?!" Lin Yehuo clutched his neck.

On the side, Bao Yan, who was having breakfast, said to Lin Yehuo, "There is a folk remedy, if it is said to be a stiff neck, just find a tiger and knock it." ”

Lin Yehuo opened his mouth wide, "There is such a thing? ”

Everyone nodded.

"Oh!" Lin Yehuo let go, stretched out his neck for nothing, and let Zou Liang knock it.

Zou Liang knocked him twice, Lin Yehuo twisted his neck and blinked, "Alas? It seems to be a little better......"

Zou Liang raised his eyebrows, walked to the table and sat down.

Lin Yehuo rubbed his neck and sat down and asked Zhanzhao, "They haven't gotten up yet?"

Long Qiaoguang said that the murder case was investigated.

"Tsk, there was a murder case early in the morning." Lin Yehuo pouted, "Speaking of which, the dog barked more often than usual at night in Kaifeng recently!" ”

Everyone watched the night fire.

Zhao Pu touched his chin...... Lin Yehuo is a super dog idiot, he basically knows the dogs on the streets of Kaifeng City, if you don't come back on time when you go out to do something on weekdays, you don't need to ask, you must be with which dog to see the right eye, and you are playing. Therefore, Lin Yehuo's statement that the dog barks more frequently than usual at night is quite credible...... Dogs bark at night mostly because they hear noises that they can't usually hear, and one or two dogs bark understandably, and many dogs bark...... That's a bit of an anomaly.

After everyone finished breakfast, they also left Kaifeng Mansion, wanting to find Zhanzhao and them...... Look where the murder happened.

Zhanzhao They are not difficult to find, just in an alley in the north of the city, there are many people surrounded by three layers outside the mouth of the alley, and the officials block the crowd.

Zhao Pu and the others walked in from the side guarded by Wang Dynasty Mahan, and saw the entrance of the alley, Bai Yutang was facing away from the alley, standing upwind to breathe, Zhanzhao was holding his arms against the wall, just behind Bai Yutang, looking into the alley.

In the alley, the fourth son was holding a small medicine box, and Gongsun was squatting on the side for an autopsy.

Glancing at the corpse again, everyone gasped...... I saw a headless corpse "kneeling" in the alley...... In front of the headless corpse, there was a golden basin...... It's still a crooked basin.

Lin jumped into the fire at night, "Wow! ”

Everyone walked over to look at it, and saw a human head in the crooked gold basin, which looked to be a little old, with a gray beard stained red with blood, and his eyes were wide open.

Zhao Pu tilted his head and looked at it for a while, then asked, "Why do I feel a little familiar?" ”

Long Qiaoguang squinted his eyes and looked carefully, "This is someone from Gaohe Village, right?" One of the old men who ran out of the courtyard that day stood across from me. ”

"Isn't that Bian Sheng's apprentice?" Lin Yehuo asked, "This age should be a very senior disciple, right?" ”

"His name is Qian Tongqian." Bai Yutang said.

Everyone was curious, "Qian Tong Qian is such a good name?" ”

Bai Yutang didn't bother to tease this group of people, and said, "Qian Tongqian is the third of the four disciples that Bian Sheng first received, known as Jin Zhiqian, and his kung fu is very good, he practices hard skills, copper head and iron bones, and usually uses golden claws as weapons...... " said, reaching out and pointing at Qian Tongqian's hands hanging on both sides of his body.

Everyone looked in the direction of Bai Yutang's fingers, and saw that Qian Tongqian's fingers were wearing golden finger covers......

"Why do his hands look so unnatural?" Pang Yu wondered.

The little fourth son raised his face and said, "All ten of his finger bones are broken!" ”

The little marquis bared his teeth, why does it hurt so much?

"It was caused by a slap with someone whose internal strength is much stronger than his." Zhan Zhao said, "Qian Tongqian's kung fu is very high, he was kicked and broken by his legs, knelt on the ground without the power to fight back, and then was beheaded with a knife.

Zhao Pu frowned, "The head of the golden basin on the crime code? ”

Gongsun nodded, picked up the human head and looked at it, shaking his head, "The murderer's knife is fast!" cruelty, and ......"

Everyone looked at Gongsun.

Gongsun pointed to Qian Tongqian's corpse and said, "I have an idea, you tear off the placket of his back and I'll look at his back!" ”

Zhan Zhao tore off the clothes on Qian Tongqian's back, and everyone looked at his back with a look of surprise...... I saw a bruised footprint on his back!

"This is ......" Zhanzhao looked at the footprints and found that they were smaller than ordinary people, a teenager, or a woman with a smaller body.

"The murderer stepped on his back when he was beheaded...... So you use a short knife? Bai Yutang asked.

"Not bad!" Gongsun nodded, and this technique is quite familiar, don't you think?

Everyone understood at once.

"The same person who killed Bian Qing?" Lin Yehuo asked.

Everyone nodded.

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes to see if Qian Tongqian had any invitations or anything like that in his hand.

……

At this moment, a commotion was heard from outside the crowd.

Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and scratched his chin, and Lin Yehuo hugged his arm and asked him, "Is it from Gaohezhai?" ”

Zhan Zhao smiled wryly - listening to the momentum.

Bai Yutang frowned, two people died in Gaohezhai......

Sure enough, I saw that the crowd was pulled apart, and several disciples of Gaohezhai rushed in.

The officials wanted to stop it, and Zhanzhao was afraid that those Jianghu people would hurt the officials with grief and anger, so he waved his hand to the people of Kaifeng Mansion.

The officials got out of the way.

I saw three old men walking in, followed by some juniors.

Long Qiaoguang and Ouyang glanced at each other - the three old men who stood with Qian Tongqian that day were probably the same generation.

Sure enough, I saw an old man rushing up to look at Qian Tongqian's body, "Third brother! ”

Gongsun motioned to him not to touch the corpse.

The old man's eyes were blood-red at this time, and when he saw Gongsun holding a bamboo knife, the little fourth son holding this small medicine box standing aside, and roared, "Don't touch the corpse of my third brother in this group of officials......

Zhao Pu raised his hand to protect Gongsun and Xiao Sizi, originally with his character, this old man roared at Gongsun and Xiao Sizi with great momentum, and Zhao Pu estimated that he could kick him out. However, the ninth prince himself also values brotherhood, but he can understand his feelings when he sees his brother's tragic death, so he has some affection, and this old man is sad and doesn't seem to be pretending......

These three old men, plus Qian Tongqian, are the four disciples with the highest seniority in Gaohezhai.

The boss Chen Mo is a senior in the rivers and lakes, he stopped the second child who was also sad and angry, and asked Zhanzhao, "Lord Zhan, what's going on?" ”

Zhan Zhao pointed to the opposite side of the alley and said, "There is a breakfast shop there, where a pair of old men and women live, and their dogs have been barking since dawn today. After daybreak, the old man opened the door, and the dog ran out...... He followed up and took a look, found out about the scene, and reported it to the official, we just arrived. ”

Chen Mo frowned, "Damn! Who killed my third brother so viciously?! ”

"When was the last time you saw him?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Chen Mo frowned, "When we were separated last night. ”

Bai Yutang was puzzled, "Separate? ”

Chen Mo snorted, as if there was something bad to say.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, puzzled.

At this time, a few more people came in from outside the crowd, it was Bian Fangrui and Bai Mutian...... Several of the main characters of Gaohezhai are here.

Bai Mutian and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and raised their eyebrows slightly, which meant to ask-what's going on?

Bai Yutang shook his head, signaling that he didn't know.

Chen Mo saw Bian Fangrui coming, so he went to comfort the two junior brothers, and Bian Fangrui came to Zhanzhao's side.

Zhan Zhao asked him, "You are a master of Gaohezhai like a cloud, there shouldn't be anyone in the other courtyard to arrest him here, right?" So he went out at night to run errands? Did you make an appointment with someone? ”

Bian Fangrui looked left and right, pointed to the side, and motioned for Zhan Zhao to take a step to speak.

The night fire on the side made room in the corner.

Zhan Zhao and Bian Fangrui walked inside.

Bian Fangrui whispered, "Yesterday all of us were not in Gaohe Village. ”

Zhan Zhao looked at him puzzled--You guys are big nights, do you come out for supper together?

Bian Fangrui frowned and said, "I won't tell you...... My dad has been missing for two days. ”

Zhan Zhao was stunned, "Huh? ”

Bai Yutang and Lin Yehuo listened from the sidelines, and also glanced at each other-Bian Fangrui meant...... Bian Sheng is missing?

Zhao Jiajun and several people also wondered - can they wash their hands in the golden basin?

"Didn't he say where to go?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Bian Fangrui shook his head, "When we got up the morning before yesterday, we found that he was gone, so we left a note for us to put up a mess, which caused a storm." But he hadn't come back until last night...... My dad would never disappear so quietly, he always had an explanation when he went out, so we scattered to Kaifeng City last night to look for him. ”

"You've been looking for a night?" Lin Yehuo asked.

Bian Fangrui shook his head, "We found it yesterday and then returned to the courtyard in the middle of the night, and we didn't find any clues...... But Senior Brother Qian didn't go back. ”

Zhanzhao frowned, "Oh......"

Bian Fangrui said, "Senior brother has a few friends in Kaifeng City, and we didn't think much about it, thinking that he had found a friend...... Who knows......"

"Last night, I said that I came to find the third brother, you have to say that he will not have an accident but go to find a friend!"

On the other side, the eldest of the four disciples, Yue Mingming, seemed to be very dissatisfied with Bian Fangrui, "If you hadn't stopped me, maybe I would have been able to save my junior brother!" ”

Chen Mo patted his brother and told him to stop talking.

Look at both sides...... Obviously, the disciples on the side of the four disciples and the disciples on Bian Fangrui's side are also a little incompatible.

Zhan Zhao can see it...... There should be two factions here! The four major disciples are one faction, and Bian Fangrui is the other faction. The two factions are vying for the position of the master of the village, and Qian Tongqian's death is beneficial to Bian Fangrui's faction, so it is inevitable that the four major disciples will have suspicions, and the contradictions between the two sides seem to have intensified.

Bai Yutang also frowned - but Bian Sheng is gone, could it be that the old man deliberately wants to leave a mess for his disciples to fight to the death and rob the position of the master of the village? This is too unreliable.

As the head of the No. 1 faction in the Western Regions, Lin Yehuo was relieved to touch his chin - he thought he could be regarded as the most unreliable leader, but compared to Bian Sheng, he was an old-timer after all! It's outrageous.

Zhao Pu asked, "Bian Sheng's kung fu is so high...... It's almost impossible to take him away quietly, right? ”

Bai Yutang shook his head.

Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo also shook their heads vigorously - Bian Sheng's kung fu was similar to Lu Tianhan, even if Yin Hou and Tianzun came out, it was impossible to take away Bai Yutang's grandfather silently! Unless Tianzun Yin Hou joins forces...... It is really possible for the two old immortals to join forces to prank and kidnap Lu Tianhan, but Bian Sheng ...... They are not familiar with each other, who is happy to spend this effort.

Bai Yutang looked at Bai Mutian.

Bai Mutian looked at him like no one else.

Bai Yutang motioned for him to look at the crooked golden basin - if you know anything, just say it, human life is at stake!

Bai Mutian smiled at Bai Yutang - what about Jin Siling? With the Golden Silk Spirit, I'll tell you.

Bai Yutang frowned, no longer talking nonsense with him.

Zhan Zhao noticed the situation here, touched his chin lightly, and suddenly asked Bian Fangrui, "Does your father have a golden silk spirit in his hand?" ”

As soon as Zhan Zhao's words came out, Bai Yutang was also a little surprised.

Zhao Pu and Lin Yehuo both touched their chins.

Gongsun and Xiao Sizi looked up, their eyes bright.

Bai Mutian looked at Bai Yutang helplessly, what does that mean-you really don't hide anything from him?

Bai Yutang glanced at him - why did you hide it from him? Obviously I know him better than you do.

Bai Mutian sighed.

Bian Fangrui was stunned, then nodded, "Uh...... Yes. ”

Gongsun and Xiao Sizi's eyes widened, "Can you take a look?" ”

Bian Fangrui replied, "My father brought it with him, he is old, so I won't hide it from you, because he practiced too hard when he was young, so his health has not been very good over the years, and the golden silk spirit belt is good for his health." ”

"Won't he take it and eat it?" Zhan Zhao was curious.

"I won't eat it until he really can't do it, and his internal strength starts to dissipate." Bian Fangrui said, "My father has been in poor health for many years, so he pays more attention to conditioning, and there may not be a day when the internal force dissipates." Besides, the golden silk spirit can continue to live is just a legend, no one has tried it, my father said that it is better not to eat or not to eat, in case you eat it to death. ”

Gongsun and Xiao Sizi both nodded and nodded - it is true that the medicinal properties are unknown, it is useless to just listen to legends, it would be good to study them...... (.)
