The group rode horses and galloped, ran through the long streets, walked through the dense forest, and stepped on countless dusty and muddy, and finally came to Cheng Ji's station.

It was late at night, and the station lit a torch to illuminate the gate of the barracks, and the light was not very bright, but the guards still alertly caught the movement, and the people stopped and asked in a loud voice: "Who dares to trespass on the barracks?" ”

A few figures on tall horses could be seen in the darkness, and the guards tried to keep their eyes open in an attempt to see more clearly.

The accompanying guards stepped forward with a cold face, showed their waist cards and scolded sharply: "Open your dog's eyes wide, this person in front of you is the Taishi of the Western Dynasty and the Lord of the Imperial Palace!" ”

The guard general is just a small soldier, except for the general Cheng Ji, where has he ever met such a big official who feels bullish just by hearing the name? I was stunned for a moment because I didn't know what to do.

Helian Zhu didn't even look at him, and drove his horse directly into the station.

Many of the soldiers on patrol were scattered because of this, and many people did not know why, and thought that there was a chaotic party rushing in, so they gathered the soldiers and chased after the people who rode away on horseback.

The horses neighed, ran straight to a river that crossed the station, and followed the river downward, and in a short time searched for a crowded place.

Helian turned over and dismounted, and the accompanying guards followed.

At this time, through the night, I saw a young man in armor and a red tasseled helmet in the crowd commanding the soldiers: "You guys, carry the corpse away...... And a few of you, clean up the scene! ”

At the end, he shouted to the soldiers who were looking forward: "Don't look at it!" ”

The soldiers followed the order, and the two dragged up a heavy cloth bag from the river, and just as they were about to carry it away, they were called out: "Wait! ”

Helian stepped forward, his face was gloomy, as if his head was covered with dark clouds and thunder and lightning, and suddenly there was a heavy and neat footstep behind him, and someone shouted: "The people in front of him stop!" ”

Helian ignored it, but all the people gathered around the river looked this way.

The young man wearing the red tasseled helmet took the initiative to step forward, looked closely, and couldn't help but shout in confusion: "Master Helian? ”

Immediately towards it.

Helian Zhu only glanced at him faintly, then crossed over and walked straight to the river.

The young man's eyes were solemn, he waved his hand back from the chasing soldiers, and turned to follow Helian Zhu's pace: "I don't know what Helian Taishi is talking about when he comes?" ”

was about to get closer, but was stopped by Helian Zhu's guards: "Presumably this is the Zhonglang General under General Cheng Ji, Lord Yin, Lord Yin, right?" ”

Yin Chong looked away, looked at the guard, frowned and replied, "Exactly!" ”

The guards were indifferent, and his tone was slightly provocative: "I have heard that General Cheng is strict in governing the army, and now that such a thing has happened under Lord Yin, shouldn't I give everyone an explanation?" ”

Yin Chong didn't like the guard's noisy tone, but because of Helian Zhu's face, he still said patiently: "The reason for this matter is still unknown, the general has been informed, and everything has to wait until the general arrives to do a detailed investigation." ”

"Detail?" The guard scoffed, "Isn't Lord Silver excusing himself for his incompetence?" General Zhonglang under General Wu's account is now dying tragically and being dumped to General Cheng's station, shouldn't Lord Yin go to General Wu's account to seek justice? ”

These words were extremely provocative, and Yin Chong couldn't help but sneer: "Dare to ask what is the identity of this brother?" General Cheng has not yet arrived, but I am afraid that the matter of the military camp will not be the turn of irrelevant people next to him to point fingers, although it is true that the deceased is General Wu's Zhonglang, but it is still unknown who the murderer is, this brother is so anxious to close the coffin, what does he want? Do you know what's going on? Or is it intended to sow discord between Cheng and the Witch Friendly Army? ”

"You!"

Helian Zhu lifted the bloodstained body bag, just glanced inside before letting go of his hand, got up and looked up at the sky, couldn't help but take a deep breath, closed his eyes and buried the sorrow in the depths of his eyes, and said in a slow and cold tone: "Shut up!" ”

The guards stepped aside.

Yin Chong looked at it for a moment, and then arched his hand towards Helian Zhu: "I don't know what the Taishi came to call at night?" ”

Yin Chong asked knowingly, the news of He Yun's murder was spread by him, and the purpose was to attract Helian Zhu.

It's just that what people didn't expect was that not long after the news spread, even Cheng Ji's side had just gotten the news, and Helian Note had already appeared here so quickly, which shows how extensive Helian Note's news network is.

When Helian Zhu opened his eyes, his eyes had returned to their usual coldness, and then he looked at Yinchong, and there was a cold light in his eyes, and then he walked over: "This Taishi came to visit General Cheng, but I didn't expect that the palace banquet had dispersed, but General Cheng had not returned for a long time, but it was an accident that people saw this scene." As everyone knows, this Taishi is an auxiliary minister appointed by the emperor, and he knows many things thoroughly to better serve the emperor and the Western Dynasty, so he ......"

Pacing slowly, he finally stopped beside Yinchong, the two of them stood side by side in the direction of one after another, Helian looked sideways, his eyes were as fierce as lightning, but his voice was still slow: "Lord Yin, can you explain to this master, what is going on?" ”

Yin Chong also turned his head sideways, looking back at Helian Zhu, the two looked at each other speechless for a while, and the air froze.

At this time, there were torches not far away, and the neat steps of the soldiers and the sound of "da-da" coming from the horses resounded in the ears.

Turning his eyes, he saw the two of them turn over and dismount - it was Cheng Ji and Helian Che.

The soldiers with torches stood in order, stopped behind their horses, and the dismounted men walked toward the river, their faces solemn.

Yin Chong didn't care about Helian Zhu, hurriedly stepped forward, and bowed his hand and called respectfully: "General, Captain Helian!" ”

Cheng Ji nodded slightly, closed her lips tightly, and looked coldly at Helian Zhu, who was standing indifferently not far away, a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes, and she immediately walked towards him, arching her hand and saying, "Why did the Taishi come to Cheng's station?" ”

In fact, Cheng Ji had already guessed Helian Zhu's intention at this time, but this was his military camp, and Helian Zhu came uninvited like this, which was really unpleasant.

"How?" Helian Zhu raised his chin, and the light in his eyes flickered, "General Cheng, is this a welcome master?" ”

Cheng Ji heard this, and then thought of the sins that her sister had suffered in her husband's house because of He Yun's wild seed in those years, and thought that her sister was infatuated and died alone and finally couldn't wait for this unkind person, the root of her teeth itched with hatred, and she wanted to kill this bastard with a knife, but considering Helian's great power, Cheng Ji had to suppress her full of resentment, and paused before saying: "Taishi misunderstood, Taishi is an auxiliary minister, one person is above ten thousand people, as long as it is beneficial to the community, where you want to go, it is naturally just a matter of words, Cheng was just curious. ”

"Humph!" Helian snorted coldly with disdain on his face, but his heart was extremely useful, so he put his posture higher and asked, "It's the two of you, why did you come together?" ”

Cheng Ji and Helian Che, who was dressed in armor, looked at each other, and Helian Che spoke: "Back to my father, at the palace banquet, my son and General Cheng received news that He Yun Zhonglang was going to be killed, and the body was found in General Cheng's station, and my son came with General Cheng to find out the truth on the order of General Wu. ”

Without waiting for Helian Note to speak again, the expression on Cheng Ji's face changed, and she turned around and asked, "What about people?" ”

Yinchong immediately gave the soldiers gathered around the corpse a look, and the soldiers took the initiative to retreat.

Everyone looked into the vacant spot and saw a blood-stained body bag on the riverbank.

Cheng Ji took the lead in walking over, bent down and opened the bag, and there was an indescribable smell of corpses in front of him, Cheng Ji frowned, let go of his hand and got up, his face was cold.

Seeing this, Helian Che also walked over, and opened the cloth bag covering the corpse with the hilt of his sword, only to see that He Yun's corpse was swollen and white, and most of it was already covered with dark green corpse spots.

"Examined the corpse just now? What did you find? ”

He was a short and thin young man, wearing a clean robe for the autopsy, and was asked by Helian Che, and was flattered and said: "Back to Lord Helian, the villain has already examined the corpse, and now it is a hot summer, and the corpse is not easy to preserve, and the deceased is precisely because the corpse was thrown to the bottom of the river, and the temperature under the water is lower than the water surface, so the degree of decay of the corpse will be much slower than that on land, judging from the color of the corpse spots, the deceased has been dead for at least seven days." ”

"Seven days ......" Helian Che pondered for a moment and muttered to himself: "That's right, He Yun took leave, calculate the time, and today is exactly seven days." ”

His voice was neither loud nor small, just enough for a few people around him to hear.

Helian Zhu, who had been watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but ask: "Why did He Yun take leave?" ”

Helian Che looked up at Helian Zhu and looked around with a slight concern, as if to remind him that there were too many people to explain at this time.

In the end, in Helian Zhu's persecuted gaze, he had to say: "Some time ago, He Yun abused the soldiers, killed two people in public, and disabled one person, his son had no choice but to beat He Yun 20 military sticks to correct military discipline, who knew that He Yun would ask his son for leave on the second day on the grounds of pain, and his son refused, He Yun threatened his son to report the matter to the Queen Mother, and his son was worried that he would get into trouble, so he had no choice but to agree, I thought he was just playful, but who knew ......"

Speaking of this, Helian Che swallowed.

Helian Zhu's face turned blue and white for a while, and he gritted his teeth secretly, He Yun is his son, even if his father and son are never close, but in the end, He Yun is his blood and bones, and now that his son has died tragically, the murderer doesn't know who it is, how can he not be angry? Helian remembered that two of his three sons had died like this, and he was furious for a while, and his fists were clenched tightly. But at this time, he can't vent his emotions, let alone say that Helian Che is not half of it, the felony of openly killing two people and abusing one person in the military camp is not an exaggeration to kill the head and be disciplined by the army, not to mention that Helian Che only punished twenty military sticks a little, in the face of the light, this punishment is not at all reasonable, and even biased, but He Yun, who doesn't know what to do, has no ability and still wants to be capable, and now he even took his life into it!

Seeing the gloomy face of Helian Zhu and the hands that were white from clenching their fists too hard, a trace of happiness flowed from the depths of his dark eyes.

At this time, Cheng Ji suddenly asked: "Captain Helian said that He Yun killed two people, and also disabled one person, how is the disabled person now?" ”

These words were obviously suspecting that the disabled Chen 30 deliberately took revenge and killed He Yun.

Helian Che shook his head and said, "I'm still in a coma. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Ji pondered for a moment, and felt: Yes, this is the south of Tokyo City, Wu Zuogu's camp is in the east, and the distance between the two places is extremely far, even if the body of the disabled person recovers quickly, it is impossible for a cripple to complete a series of actions to brutally kill He Yun and then throw the body to transfer the crisis alone.

However, at the moment of relief, a huge mystery suddenly appeared in Cheng Ji's head: he had never wanted to see He Yun, the nephew of the wild species, but now He Yun was thrown into his camp by someone with a heart......

Combined with the gloomy look of Helian Note in front of him, Cheng Ji immediately understood.
