Volume 1 Wind and Rain Entering Lin'an Chapter 94 Heart
Under the leadership of Captain Wu, Qin Tan saw the scene of the crime. Although Qin Tan was originally a ruthless person with a heart as hard as iron, when he saw the tragic situation at the scene, he was still shocked.
He didn't know how Fang Zi'an managed to defeat ten with one, but one thing was certain, Fang Zi'an's methods of killing people were absolutely professional and merciless. Almost all of the dead men were killed with a single blow, without any extra wounds on their bodies. It can be seen that this Fang Zi'an's method is so ferocious, there is almost no hesitation and timidity, and he wants to kill someone.
After listening to the reasoning story of Captain Wu's genius, Qin Tan not only felt extremely ridiculous, but also had a faint chill in his heart. In addition to being strong in martial arts and ruthless, this Fang Zi'an is even more scheming, cunning and treacherous. Apparently he had everything in place from the start, and he had planned all the details. Judging from Captain Wu's account, there are basically not too many flaws.
When Qin Tan saw the map of the so-called Xiangfu that Captain Wu got, he found that the map was completely wrong, and it was simply the donkey's head that was not in the horse's mouth. This is clearly a map of random graffiti. This made Qin Tan breathe a sigh of relief, because the distribution map of the Xiangfu's houses and courtyards was confidential, and it was impossible for outsiders to know. If the map in front of you is the real map of Xiangfu, it means that the secret has been leaked. Now it seems that it was just Fang Zi'an's casual graffiti, just to deceive people. And everyone, including Captain Wu, obviously couldn't tell the truth from the fake, because it was confidential, so it was impossible for them to know the truth or falsehood, and they could only take it for granted that it was the map of the Prime Minister's Mansion by virtue of the annotations on the paper.
But then, Qin Tan suddenly had another thought that made him chill, that is, Fang Zi'an deliberately drew this map of the donkey's lips not matching the horse's mouth, in this way, he paralyzed himself and made himself think that he actually didn't know anything about the topography of the Prime Minister's Mansion. This is a deep psychological game. Thinking of this, the hairs on Qin Tan's back stood up.
"Qin Wugongzi, do you think my analysis is reasonable. Judging from the signs of all aspects, this is indeed a bloody case caused by a group of stupid bandits. It's really funny that these people have their brains in water, and they can't even get anything done, so they fight each other for money that they haven't yet won. Captain Wu asked with a little smugness.
Qin Tan's mind began to run like boiling water, of course he understood that all this was Fang Zi'an's arrangement to get away with his crimes. But he couldn't find fault with it, because he couldn't let people know that the dead were all sent by him. If these soldiers and horses of the patrol battalion knew all this, they would definitely be in big trouble. The captain of the patrol battalion surnamed Wu in front of him belonged to the soldiers and horses of the former division of the forbidden army, which was the deputy envoy of the privy council and the commander of the front division of the palace, Yang Cunzhong, and Yang Cunzhong was one of the few people in the court who could sit on an equal footing with his grandfather Qin Hui in front of the emperor. Don't look at Yang Cunzhong's seemingly loyal, grandpa once said in private that he can't wait to find a fatal opportunity to make the Qin family die without a place to be buried. Therefore, it is necessary to be extremely cautious in dealing with Yang Cunzhong.
Today's matter, the treacherous thing about Fang Zi'an is that he sued the wicked first, and took the first step to attract the soldiers and horses of the city patrol camp. Now that this Captain Wu is caught in the middle, he is not good at throwing a rat trap.
But Qin Tan still wanted to make a final effort, or he was unwilling to be powerless.
"Captain Wu's analysis makes a lot of sense. However, I always feel that there are many doubts here. How could these bandits be so stupid, this map is wrong, they actually took this wrong map and prepared to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is also ridiculously stupid. Not to mention, they fought themselves for the money they didn't get, isn't that crazy? I think there's something strange here, that scholar surnamed Fang is probably lying, maybe he did all this. Captain Wu, what do you think? ”
Captain Wu stared at Qin Tan in astonishment when he heard this, and suddenly laughed out loud.
"I have heard for a long time that the fifth son of Qin is extremely intelligent and intelligent, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation. Qin Wugongzi could see through at a glance that the scholar named Fang Zi'an was a very hidden master, and he could kill them all with one enemy and nine. Not only that, but he was also proficient in throwing knives and bows and arrows, and he was also so powerful that he shattered a person's cheekbones with a single punch. Wow. Awesome, how did you do it, Fifth Prince Qin? How did you come up with the idea? It's a five-body throw that I admire. ”
Captain Wu was already angry with Qin Tanwo who suddenly appeared, and he couldn't get a credit because of his arrival. For the sake of his face as Qin Xiang's grandson, he didn't have a seizure, and when he heard him say those words at this moment, he couldn't help but laugh loudly.
All the soldiers also laughed, these soldiers are not afraid of Qin Wugongzi, in fact, Yang Cunzhong's generals and ordinary soldiers in the front of the palace know that Qin Hui can't help his own palace marshal, they don't care about offending Qin Hui's grandson. What's more, what this Fifth Prince of Qin said was too stupid. If that Fang Zi'an had such a ability, wouldn't he have become an immortal.
Qin Tan suddenly understood one thing, the core of Fang Zi'an's arrangement today was actually that no one would believe that he, a scholar, could have so many means of killing people with one enemy and nine. Anyone with a normal mind would not believe it if they were killed. So, that's the core of all his arrangements. So he dared to go to the officers and soldiers patrolling the city, and even he could go directly to report to the officials. That's because no one would believe that he had such a means, and they would not suspect him in any way. Even himself, if he didn't know exactly that everything in front of him was done by Fang Zi'an, who would say that this was Fang Zi'an's masterpiece, Qin Tan would definitely slap him in the mouth and scold him for being a fool.
"Captain Wu, I'm just asking some questions, so why are you ironic about me. Don't you believe that there is nothing strange about this world? There are many things that you can't understand. Qin Tan said coldly.
Captain Wu laughed without stopping, and nodded with a sigh: "I believe, I believe that the old sow will go up the tree, and I also saw a cow flying in the sky that day." Hahaha. Qin Wugongzi, if you are okay, go home and sleep, our brothers still have a lot of things to do, we still have to clean up these corpses, investigate the scene, and track down the escaped thieves. Qin Wugongzi, we errand boys don't have time to brag with you here. Please take care of yourself. By the way, don't wander around the city in the middle of the night next time, these bandits may still be hanging around the city, but be careful, don't trouble our city patrol camp. ”
Qin Tan was annoyed, but he was very self-contained. smiled and said: "Dare to ask Captain Wu's surname?" I'd love to make friends with you. ”
Captain Wu changed color when he heard this, and sneered silently. Although it is a simple question, it is murderous behind it.
Qin Tan nodded with satisfaction, the other party didn't dare to answer because he was afraid, this is the Qin family's deterrent power, where the majesty lies.
"Captain Wu doesn't seem to want to make me a friend, so that's it, and my son doesn't force it. By the way, where is that Fang Zian? Why don't you show up for half a day? Did you run away? Qin Tan said in a deep voice.
Fang Zi'an came out from the side with blue eyes, and arched his hand: "The villain Fang Zi'an is here, it turns out that you are the fifth son of Qin, and you have been looking up for a long time." ”
Qin Tan scolded angrily in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Fang Zi'an, your life is really big, under such a rush, you can actually escape with your life, it's amazing." ”
Fang Zi'an scratched his messy hair and said, "It's a fluke, it's really lucky." I almost died at the hands of these robbers tonight. ”
Qin Tan nodded and said, "Yes, you are lucky." But people don't get lucky all the time. I think that if you provoke such a thing for no reason, it must be because of the unfavorable years. I'm afraid you're going to have to find a way to tell fortunes and break the disaster. ”
Fang Zi'an nodded and said, "That makes sense, I have to go to fortune telling." I'll go to Zhang Banxian tomorrow and ask him to give me the Disaster Breaker. Stick some more straw men and curse these bandits for not dying well. I will curse the whole family of these accomplices of the dead ghosts, and whoever will tell them to come out and harm others. Hey, it's a pity that these are all dead, if only a few of them survived, it would be good, take them to the yamen for a trial, and under the punishment of the people, they will be able to know their true identities and confess their accomplices. Qin Wugongzi, did you say? ”
Qin Tan sneered and said noncommittal. If Fang Zi'an stays alive, then after being taken away by the patrol camp at this moment, it is likely that everything will be confessed. Although Qin Tan knew that these people he sent might not dare to confess that he had sent them to kill Fang Zi'an, but everything had an accident, and no one could say whether they would confess under the punishment. Therefore, Fang Zi'an's meaning is actually to warn himself, which means that I don't want to die this time, so I will kill them all, and if there is a next time, I will leave a living mouth and break the net.
"That's right. Hehehe. Qin Tan turned to Captain Wu and said with a smile: "Captain Wu, since there are bandits on the run, Captain Wu should take someone to hunt him down." The corpses of these bandits, my people can help you clean them up. ”
Captain Wu waved his hand and said, "Don't work for the fifth son of Qin." ”
Qin Tan smiled and said, "It's just a gesture, you have so few people, what about nine corpses, can you move it?" Someone, don't you help carry the corpse? The brothers of the forbidden army have worked very hard to patrol the city and take the thieves, and we have to help carry the corpses. ”
When the companions agreed, they stepped forward and started to do it. Captain Wu wanted to stop it, but when he thought about it, he really didn't have enough manpower. How could the twenty people under the nine corpses move by themselves, so they simply gave up.
When a group of companions carried the corpse out of the small courtyard, Captain Wu said to Fang Zi: "You also have to go with us, you are an eyewitness, you have to write down the witnesses, sign and draw the pledge." ”
Fang Zi'an sighed: "I'm really unlucky, I almost lost my life, and now I have to record a confession with you, hey, it's just that, just go." Shall I change my clothes? ”
Captain Wu frowned and said, "Move faster." ”
Fang Zi'an thanked him for a long time, went into the room, rubbed for a long time, and came out with a change of dry clothes. After Captain Wu and the others took Fang Zi'an out of the courtyard gate, they found that Qin Tan's men carried the corpse and walked quickly, and they were already at the mouth of the alley. By the time Captain Wu and Fang Zi'an arrived at the left side of the patrol shop, nine corpses had already been lined up on the street next to the patrol shop.
Fang Zi'an took a look through the faint light of the torch, and saw that each corpse's face had been slashed several times, and it had already disfigured its appearance, and said in his heart: Even if I didn't delay time in vain, Qin Tan, you are not stupid. I didn't do it before because it would be too suspicious to ruin the corpse's appearance. If you do this, it's none of my business, and the officers and soldiers will only suspect you. Of course, you are not afraid.
