As the fire lit up, the situation in the cellar gradually became clear, and the two smelled a strong smell of burning, but when they saw the scene in front of them, Li Boyu couldn't help but be so frightened that he covered his mouth with his hand, and Li Tianran was also a little frightened and trembled slightly, and unconsciously took a step back.

The cellar was a large space, originally used to store food, but now there are neat rows of corpses! In fact, the two of them had already been mentally prepared for the matter of parking the corpse, and what really scared the two or shocked them was the appearance of the corpse at this moment! All of them had been charred and blackened by the fire, and they could not be distinguished except for the length of the corpses, which could distinguish whether they were adults or children.

Li Tianran hurriedly lit another torch to make the cellar brighter, and Li Boyu also planned to light a few more when he saw this, but Li Tianran immediately stopped: "Brother, don't raise more torches, I can't breathe well in this cellar, and I don't know how long the two of us will be trapped, so it's better to be careful!" ”

Li Boyu nodded, and followed behind Li Tianran to begin to examine the corpse, the corpse was parked in two rows, Li Tianran looked at each corpse very carefully by the light of the fire, but the corpses were all charred, and there was no trace at all. Li Tianran sometimes squatted down to look at the powder on the ground, sometimes broke the corpse's mouth, and finally said slowly: "Brother, I guessed right, someone set the fire on purpose, from the point of the fire, this is the first to burn, and the fire outside was also ignited again to prevent someone from entering this place, so the fire here is also the first to be extinguished!" ”

"Someone... Intentional arson? But what is it for? Li Bo muttered.

Li Tianran casually broke open the mouth of a corpse, and said by the light of the fire: "Brother, look, the mouth of this corpse is extremely clean, and there is no smoke and dust, which shows that the corpse is indeed placed here after death, if the living person is buried in the fire, he will definitely inhale a lot of smoke and dust, and it is impossible to do this in the mouth!" Therefore, there should be no possibility of killing people in this fire! ”

Li Boyu nodded and responded: "In this way, it is indeed as my brother said, but everyone here is dead, why do the murderers have to take such a big risk and sneak in and burn it?" ”

Li Tianran straightened up and said in an affirmative tone: "There is only one possibility, and that is to destroy the evidence left on the corpse!" ”

"On the corpse ... Evidence? Li Boyu muttered to himself, and then said, "Could it be that these thirty-six corpses have left evidence?" ”

"Brother, wait! How many corpses do you say there are here? Li Tianran suddenly asked with a look of surprise.

Li Boyu couldn't help but be stunned when he was asked, and then slowly replied: "Thirty... Six? I've just counted it secretly, it should be... There can be no mistake! ”

Li Tianran continued: "But if I remember correctly, Yang Zhao's family was slaughtered but thirty-seven people died!" Brother! Look for it, maybe the murderer glanced at us and missed a corpse, maybe the cause of arson was on that corpse! ”

Hearing this, Li Boyu hurriedly began to search carefully in the cellar with Li Tianran, and in less than a moment, Li Boyu immediately shouted: "Ah... Brother, here! Here's one more! ”

Hearing this, Li Tianran hurriedly ran over, and when he came to the front, he saw that there was indeed a corpse at the finger of Li Boyu! Li Tianran hurriedly squatted down to inspect, it turned out that this corpse was placed on the outermost side of all the corpses, the fire burned the legs of the table, the corpse rolled down, and stopped with his face facing the wall, but the back of the corpse was burned black, and he didn't look carefully just now, and he didn't find that there was a charred corpse here for a while!

Li Tianran cautiously squatted beside the corpse, he gave Li Boyu a look, Li Boyu understood, and the two gently turned over the corpse, for fear that there would be any more accidents. The corpse slowly turned around, but fortunately the layer of the face wall was not charred, and it did not change much except that the complexion was a little darkened! Li Tianran was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly began to carefully inspect it.

In the end, his gaze stayed on the erect neck of the corpse, and he slowly raised his head and said to Li Boyu: "I finally understand why the murderer set fire to the corpse!" ”

Li Boyu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Ah... Brother, why? Tell Brother Yu quickly! ”

Li Tianran slowly pointed to the erect neck of the corpse with his hand, and said: "Although Ah Lang has learned swordsmanship since he was a child, you should take a closer look, is this wound caused by a sword wound?" ”

Li Boyu looked down for a long time, and suddenly there was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he responded: "Brother, this wound is of different shallows and depths and the wound is very large, it is definitely not caused by a sword wound!" SO ... ”

Li Tianran answered: "I just took a closer look, this place should be a fatal injury, and there are no other injuries on the corpse!" But this is not caused by a sword wound, it should be a knife wound! If you are wounded by a sword, the wound should be a fine, neat wound; If it is pierced, it will be a small hole, but in any case, it should never look like this! So... They weren't killed by Ah Lang's Darkiron Sword! ”

Li Boyu said excitedly: "So, Ah Lang's suspicion of murder has been cleared?" ”

Li Tianran nodded lightly and replied, "That's right!" The murderer should also be aware of this problem, so he took the risk! ”

"That Ah Lang... The blood stains on the Xuantie Sword are again... How can you explain that? Li Boyu asked suspiciously.

Li Tianran chuckled: "This is the second reason why the murderer set the fire, there are blood stains on the Xuantie Sword, if it is compared with the blood in the corpse, it is easy to distinguish that the blood on the sword does not come from these corpses!" The corpse was burned, and since then, there has been no comparison! The evidence of Ah Lang's murder can be regarded as solid! Fortunately... The sky has eyes, and there is such a corpse that can speak! ”

Li Boyu muttered to himself, "Then according to this, everything is really that... General Gao deliberately framed Ah Lang? ”

When Li Tianran heard him say this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and after a while, he slowly replied: "At present, it should be like this!" ”

Li Boyu suddenly grabbed Li Tianran's arm and said excitedly: "Quick! Let's quickly bring this corpse to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so that he can clear his grievances for Ah Lang! ”

Li Tianran nodded, so he hurriedly got up and wrapped the half-burnt corpse with his clothes! But as soon as the two of them arrived at the cellar door, they felt a wave of heat coming! The fire outside the door should still not be extinguished, Li Bo bird braved the hot air to push the door a few times, but it did not move, it should have been suppressed by the giant wood that had just fallen to hold the door down! The temperature was extremely high, and Li Boyu couldn't hold on for long before he hurriedly retreated! Later, I tried several times in a row, but I couldn't open the cellar door!

Seeing this, Li Tianran hurriedly extinguished the torch in his hand, and Li Boyu asked, "Brother, why is this?" ”

Li Tianran said: "I don't know how long this fire will last, it seems that the two of us will not be able to get out for a while, so we can only wait for others to come to help, so I have to put out the torch and try to leave some breath in the cellar." ”

Li Boyu was helpless when he heard this, so he had to follow Li Tianran and sit back to the innermost end of the cellar, only here is it not so hot!

Time is constantly draining, the two are anxious, but there is nothing to be done, if the fire is not extinguished, the two of them will not be able to get out at all, they can only wait for others to save them! Therefore, the two of them could only look at the door of the cellar and sigh! One hour, two hours... I don't know how long it took, but the two of them were already restless!

Finally, there was a "whoosh" from the cellar door! The door was finally opened, and a torch poked in, and the two were overjoyed, and hurriedly walked towards the cellar door with the corpse in their arms, and at this time there was a shout from the cellar door: "Are the two adults of the East Palace here?" ”

Hearing the voice, it turned out to be the leader of the Yulin Army, and Li Tianran immediately responded loudly: "Here, we are here!" ”

"Ah, thank goodness! The two adults are still alive, the fire has been extinguished, come up quickly! The leader said loudly into the cellar.

Li Tianran and the two climbed up one after another, and it was already dark at this time! The leader suddenly saw the charred corpse in Li Boyu's hand by the light of the fire, and he couldn't hold back for a while, his stomach kept churning, and he actually began to retch! At the same time, he muttered, "Two adults, this... What does that mean? ”

Li Tianran looked around, the fire had indeed been extinguished, and the house had already burned to ruins, but they were worthy of the trip, so they smiled lightly and responded: "This is the key evidence!" We're going to take it away! ”

As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind the two, but the two quickly realized that this was not an ordinary rumor, but full of murderous energy! The two hurriedly turned their heads to look, but it was too late, and they saw that a black shadow had flashed in front of the two. Li Tianran was caught off guard, he was already hit by a palm in the chest, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the whole person flew out backwards as if he had fallen apart; Before the leading Yulin Army could react, he had already received a slap on the top of his head, and immediately fell to the ground and died, and the two Yulin Army behind him were also slapped in the head one after another, bleeding from the seven orifices and falling to the ground, no longer moving; Everything happened between lightning and flint, and it was not until this moment that Li Bo Bird reacted, so he hurriedly put down the corpse in his hand and stepped forward to fight, but this was the first move, and he was caught by the black shadow with a claw, and then twisted his backhand, Li Bo Bird felt a sharp pain that pierced his heart, and he knelt on one knee, unable to fight again! Li Boyu struggled to look up at the black shadow, and suddenly his eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "White... White-faced people? ”

As soon as the words fell, the white-faced man immediately raised a foot and kicked Li Bo Bird in the chest, and Li Bo Bird immediately spurted blood from his mouth and fell behind him; The white-faced man didn't intend to fight, and when he saw that everyone had fallen to the ground, he grabbed the charred corpse on the ground on the side, and then jumped and disappeared into the night like walking on the ground... The backyard of Yang Zhao's Mansion once again returned to its previous calm.
