On the twenty-third day of the twelfth month of the tenth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Beijing City, not yet. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the north of the city, it is clear to see.

As the dilapidated door creaked open slowly, Yang Zhen's gaze quickly looked in.

Directly facing the gate is the temple dedicated to Sanqing, and between the gate and the temple, there is a courtyard planted with several tall cypress trees. Although this is the wax moon, the evergreen cypress trees are still luxuriant, like a canopy umbrella, covering the sky above the courtyard, so that the already weak sunlight can only penetrate a little, making the whole courtyard appear extraordinarily deep.

And under the slightly cold and deep courtyard tree, a man in green clothes was standing proudly, seeing Yang Zhen pushing the door and coming, he turned his eyes and grinned violently: "Yang Dudu is really a punctual person, you came when you just arrived." ”

Because of the sudden dimming of the ambient light, Yang Zhen's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he slowly walked in the door, looking up and down the man in front of him with a cold gaze. This is a man in his forties, extremely ordinary-looking, so ordinary that if you throw him down the street, you won't find anyone in the blink of an eye. But Yang Zhen knew that those who dared to kidnap his wife and send him a letter to meet him must not be an ordinary person!

Thinking of this, he snorted, "Who are you?" Now that I'm here, you can open it with any conditions. But there is one thing I want to remind you, I, Yang Zhen, am not easy to provoke, if you know each other, it may be the wisest choice to release people at this time! ”

"Yang Dudu is really used to giving orders, what a big breath!" The man seemed to smile mockingly: "It's a pity that your words can't threaten us at all, and people are in our hands, so naturally everything is up to us." ”

When Yang Zhen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, obviously a little angry. But soon, he quickly suppressed his anger again, what the other party said was actually not bad, and now that he was controlled by others, he was indeed at a complete disadvantage.

Seeing Yang Zhen's concerns, the man smiled proudly again: "But Lord Yang, please rest assured, although the two ladies are beautiful, we don't have any interest in them, all we want is you." ”

"Hmph, don't beat around the bush, just say something you want."

"Yang Dudu, you are really anxious, but are you really willing to do what we want? If we wanted you to assassinate the current emperor, would you do the same? The man suddenly stared at Yang Zhen and asked faintly.

"You ......" Yang Zhen naturally couldn't answer such a question, and at the same time, his brows quickly gathered, and a strange feeling came to his mind, although this person in front of him said a lot of words, none of them were useful, and he didn't ask for anything, but it was like just hanging himself here.

"But Yang Dudu, you just have to rest assured, we won't really let you do this kind of unrealistic thing. We'll make it easier for you......"

"Then you say, what do you want me to do?"

"Well, if you look at the things in the temple, you will know what we want you to do." As he spoke, the man got out of the way and motioned for Yang Zhen to enter.

Yang Zhen was slightly stunned, what kind of medicine is this guy selling in his gourd, and what is he preparing for himself in it? Although he was secretly vigilant in his heart, but until now, he could only follow the other party's will to enter the hall and take a look, so he snorted, passed by the other party's side, came to the door of the temple that was still half-hidden, and gently pushed his hand, and the door opened.

Yang Zhen only felt that the light in the hall was three points darker than in the courtyard, and there was even a slight chill constantly passing through, making him take a cool breath unconsciously. Then I looked intently, and I saw a black thing on the ground in front of the statue of Sanqing in front of me, which looked similar to the person, but it was a little shorter.

"This is ......" Curious, Yang Zhen's gaze quickly swept over the hall, and after being sure that there was no ambush, he crossed the high threshold and walked over.

At this time, a terrible scream suddenly came from behind him, as if someone had been stabbed in the heart and screamed before dying. This made Yang Zhen's heart tighten suddenly, and he quickly looked back, only to see that the man in green clothes suddenly shook his hand, and a rope flew out of his sleeve, and after wrapping around the big tree in front of him, he quickly took him into the air, and then folded his body, and he had reached the top of the hall.

Which one is this?

Yang Zhen could hear that the scream was from the man in Tsing Yi, but he was standing there in a good manner, and he was not attacked by anything, why did he make such a strange noise, and he also went to the top of the palace? What was his idea?

After this stunned, Yang Zhen's face suddenly tightened, because he had clearly seen what was on the ground in front of him, that thing was actually a corpse that had been cut off by someone, no wonder it looked shorter than ordinary people, and at the same time, the pungent bloody breath finally came to his face......

What the other party let in and saw was only a decapitated corpse, which made Yang Zhen obviously stunned for a moment, could it be that they wanted to test the school's ability to investigate the case by themselves, and give themselves a headless corpse to find out their identity?

This thought will not make Yang Zhen's heart tighten, what makes him change like this is the next movement-

A chaotic and eager footsteps suddenly came from far and near towards the Xianqingguan, when Yang Zhen got up and looked back when he heard the sound, bang, the door of the Taoist temple that he pushed open more than half was completely knocked open, and then, a large number of soldiers rushed in, they all drew their guns and knives, looking like they were facing a great enemy.

With the light in the adaptation view, everyone was even more stunned when they saw Yang Zhen standing in the hall. They were all patrol soldiers who often haunted this area, and naturally knew the fact that this Qingguan had been abandoned for a long time, and almost no one would come, so they were naturally even more vigilant when they saw that there were really people hiding here.

The officer at the head shouted, "Who are you and what are you doing here?" ”

Yang Zhen had already understood at this time, I am afraid that it was the screams of the man in Tsing Yi that led these patrols over, so he would leave quickly after that. As for the other party's intention to do this, it is really hard to guess, he is the governor of Jinyi Wei, are you still afraid that these soldiers and horses will regard themselves as murderers?

However, at least for now, those soldiers really have this opinion, and pointed to the headless corpse on the ground with sharp eyes: "My lord...... That...... That's really a corpse......"

"What?" The officer was also shocked when he heard this, and then drew his knife again and pointed at Yang Zhen: "A bold murderer, he actually dares to commit such a murder at the feet of the Son of Heaven!" ”

"I didn't kill people." Yang Zhen said calmly, and then reached into his arms, and wanted to take out the waist card.

"You...... What are you doing? Seeing the other party make such a move, the officer, including all the soldiers, was on guard, and several archers even pulled the bowstring, and the shining arrows were already aimed at Yang Zhen, as long as he made a move, he would let go.

Although these people reacted so violently, Yang Zhen was not worried. He knew very well that even if there was a corpse here, as long as he revealed his identity, these people from the Soldiers and Horses Division would not dare to really do anything to themselves, and the words of the commander of the Jinyi Guard would be extremely heavy, how could a few people from the Soldiers and Horses Division dare to disobey?

But immediately, Yang Zhen's expression changed again - the waist card he had been hiding in his arms was actually gone! He remembered it very clearly, and he carried it in his arms when he went out today, why did he use it at this time but disappeared?

"Could it be that ...... just now" Yang Zhen's mind turned quickly, and he immediately remembered that when he walked past the man in Tsing Yi before he walked into the main hall, he had a slight contact with him, could it be that at that moment, when he threw all his attention to the Sanqing Palace, the man actually touched his waist card.

What was his purpose in doing this? I can't prove my identity, and then I will be taken down as a murderer by the people of the Terracotta Division? This is too child's play...... "Yang Zhen is a little puzzled, he is the governor of Jinyi Wei, isn't it no longer without a waist card?" Why would they do such a useless thing?

Just as he was thinking about it, Yang Zhen heard another shout: "Come out!" Otherwise, we'll let the arrows go! ”

Obviously, it was because of the dangerous aura exuded by Yang Zhen's body that these soldiers were jealous, although he only reached into his arms and did not make any other threatening moves, he still dared not ignore it, and immediately made an ultimatum.

At this time, if he said that he was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he was afraid that these guys would not believe it at all, but would make them treat themselves as murderers even more, so Yang Zhen had no choice but to smile bitterly, and after slowly taking his hand out of his arms, he raised it high again, indicating that he had no intention of resisting, and then walked out of the palace gate.

Seeing that he had no intention of resisting, all the soldiers settled down, and then someone stepped forward to surround him with knives and guns to prevent Yang Zhen from suddenly escaping, and some people walked into the hall to carefully check the corpses on the ground.

Immediately, an exclamation came out: "This corpse was actually cut off!" ”

"Bold murderer, what a madman! Say, "Who are you?" Why did you kill this man? Also, who is the victim and where did you hide his head? The leading officer immediately asked in a loud voice. When such a bad murder suddenly happened in his jurisdiction, he naturally felt great pressure. Fortunately, the murderer was taken down by them on the spot, otherwise I really don't know how to explain it to the above.

This is thanks to the scholar who reported to him before, otherwise he would not have been able to come in such a timely manner. Thinking about it, the officer looked back behind him, but the figure was long gone. Perhaps, that person was afraid of things, and knew that the murder was here, so he didn't dare to come again. With this thought in mind, the officer quickly ignored this point automatically, and regarded it as the murder scene that he took the initiative to discover with his brothers!
