Chapter 721: Trap

【2nd Update】

said that they were going together, but Su Xingfang made a sedan chair, and Sun Shaozong sat in a carriage, so naturally they still took care of each other on the road.

So Sun Shaozong was busy and asked for the road map drawn by Huang Bin, and carefully compared it along the way.

Those two fake monks are really bold masters, and they walked all the way, turning around and walking in densely populated places, as if they were not afraid of acquaintances at all.

But think about it carefully, Monk Daoyan lives in the palace of the palace, and his disciples have always only been active in Daxing County, how many people in the jurisdiction of Wanping County can recognize them?

Not to mention the two masters and apprentices, they also deliberately 'defected' from the Taoist sect to the Buddha.

Even Yang Hancai, who had been 'close' to his comrades, carefully studied it for a long time before he recognized Dao Yan's apprentice, let alone others.

But......

Since the master and apprentice are walking on the main road, if there is no accident, they will definitely not take the initiative to walk into the alley.

What method did the murderer use to lure the two of them to a secluded place?

You must know that these are two charlatans, or two swindlers who are on the run, and there is no doubt about the high vigilance.

If, according to the original inference, it was the revenge of one of the beggars, it would be even more unreasonable—the two of them had twenty-four beggars' lives in their hands, and even if they were confident that they would not be noticed, they would definitely be wary of the beggars.

If this is an infighting among the accomplices, it may be explained, but the black post, as well as the practice of sending the corpse to Dali Temple to provoke, obviously do not seem to be what the accomplices can do.

Strange, this is really weirdly tight!

Although it took a long time to check, if you take a car, it is only a little more than a quarter of an hour away - this still takes care of Su Xingfang who is sitting in a sedan chair.

Because Chen Jingde had been ordered to rush to Anrenfang in advance, so after Sun Shaozong and Su Xingfang got off the car and got off the sedan chair, some officials of Dali Temple had already launched a house-to-house search.

Seeing this, Su Xingfang hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Sun Shaoqing, Xia Guan also happened to have more than a dozen messengers with him, so he might as well send them out for an investigation." ”

He went to Dali Temple this time to report on official business, bringing all his support, and there were enough small twenty people to cut the sedan chair, plus this is the jurisdiction of Wanping County, and it is justified to send people to join the search.

So Sun Shaozong said 'thanks' and nodded in agreement.

Su Xingfang immediately waved his hand, and more than a dozen Wanping County officers, under the leadership of a certain middle-aged catcher, joined the carpet search and interrogation.

This errand that disturbed the people was naturally supervised by Chen Jingde, and as for Sun Shaozong and Su Xingfang, they temporarily requisitioned a tea shed on the side of the road.

Seeing that he had to sit down one after another, Su Xingfang took out a hand stove from his arms, put it on the corner of the table and laughed at himself: "In the past two years, I have been in charge of the government affairs of a county, I am afraid that I will lose the emperor's grace, and I get up early all day and be greedy for darkness. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup again, took a few sips of hot air, and waited for the hot soup to go down, and his face was slightly ruddy.

Sun Shaozong's mind was mostly on the case, and when he heard him speak like this, he noticed that his face was pale, as if he was a little lacking in qi and blood.

So he turned the teacup in his hand and persuaded with a smile: "It's good for Su Zhixian to be diligent in government affairs, but you also have to understand the truth of being too late - if you are free that day, you might as well learn some routines from me to strengthen your body." ”

"How?"

Su Xingfang's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Master Sun wants to teach me martial arts?" If you can learn one or two points of ability, you can get it in this world! ”

As he spoke, he seemed to have accidentally touched his heart and lungs, and he hurriedly covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

Just the body and bones of this tuberculosis ghost, still want to dominate the world?

Sun Shaozong said speechlessly: "It's just to strengthen the body, with Su Zhixian's body, don't expect to gallop on the field." ”

The two chatted for a few words, and unconsciously turned to the case, and just as you were analyzing it word by word, I suddenly saw Chen Jingde carrying his robe and running over.

Before he could get closer, he shouted, "My lord, my lord! The lowly has found the scene of the murder! ”

Discovered so quickly?

Sun Shaozong didn't feel happy, he only felt quite strange - the case related to the black post, which one is not full of suspense?

In this case, I easily found clues.

Although he was suspicious in his heart, Sun Shaozong still beckoned Su Xingfang to greet him, and instructed Chen Jingde to lead the way in front, preparing to investigate first and then make a conclusion.

The three of them, together with a few officials, walked about 200 steps, and saw a lot of officials surrounding the mouth of a small alley, and the person at the head was the middle-aged head catcher in Daxing County.

"I've seen you!"

The middle-aged catcher grabbed the scabbard and arched his hand, then pointed to the depths of the alley, and said excitedly: "The villain found an abandoned yard at the bottom of this alley, and saw that the door lock seemed to have been tampered with, so he pried open the door and went in to check, and sure enough, he found some residual bloodstains!" ”

It turned out that someone from Daxing County had found the clue.

Sun Shaozong glanced at Chen Jingde, this guy's eyebrows fluttered, he didn't know, he thought he found it out personally.

Since it was found out by his subordinates, Su Xingfang felt that there was light on his face, so he took the initiative to order: "Then what are you waiting for, quickly take us over to check out!" ”

The middle-aged head catcher gladly accepted the order.

Leaning his shoulders, he led everyone into the alley, and when he saw that he was not far from the bottom of the alley, he saw two servants standing guard in front of an open gate, chattering about something.

"My Excellency, this is it! The villain ......"

The middle-aged catcher turned sideways, pointed to the gate and was about to explain a few words, when he suddenly heard a crisp sound of 'boom', vaguely like the movement of a broken bowstring.

Immediately after that, there was a series of crisp sounds, and I saw dozens of short arrows suddenly shoot out on the mottled wall at the bottom of the alley!

"Get out of the way!"

In this hurry, only Sun Shaozong, who had experienced the battle array, reacted in time.

Listening to his loud shout, he grabbed Su Xingfang and Chen Jingde on the left and right, and stuck them on the wall on the left.

In the next second, the screams filled the entire alley!

Five or six officials were shot by this short arrow, and the middle-aged head catcher who led the way was the first to bear the brunt, with more than a dozen short arrows in his body.

Seeing that he fell to the ground, he breathed more and took in less air, and he kept spitting blood foam, which obviously made him unable to live.

And it was precisely because of his fat body that Sun Shaozong and the others who hid behind him in time were unharmed.

However, Sun Shaozong did not relax his vigilance, and pulled Chen Jingde and Su Xingfang to slowly retreat.

"Big ...... Thank you for saving your life! ”

Chen Jingde eased up a little, and the five bodies of gratitude fell to the ground at the moment.

But how did he know that the reason why Sun Shaozong pulled him up was actually to use him to pick up the gaps - if the middle-aged head catcher failed to block the short arrow that came over, it was time for him to be a meat shield.

Even if he is pulling him back now, he also has the intention of using him to block the knife at a critical moment.

Of course, Sun Shaozong will never tell Chen Jingde the truth.

said that the three of them withdrew about ten steps away, and Su Xingfang finally came to his senses, but his first move was not to thank Sun Shaozong for saving his life, but to desperately shake off Sun Shaozong's pull, and rushed to the dying middle-aged head catcher regardless of it.

"Uncle! Uncle! Are you alright, uncle! ”

But it turned out that the middle-aged head catcher turned out to be Su Xingfang's own uncle! ()
