Chapter Seventy-Eight: The True Murderer Is Hard to Find, and the Handmaid Is Grumpy
"Immediately arrange the people in the house, let them carefully investigate this matter, and be sure to find out the real murderer of Leng Xuanyi......"
King Xun Shiluan opened a cold voice and ordered his subordinates to be humane.
"His Royal Highness King Xun, do you think Lord Leng didn't kill Qi Si by killing him......?"
"Whether he killed it or not, in fact, it doesn't matter, Qianlong Gang has long looked unpleasant to me, a gang of rivers and lakes actually helped the one on the dragon chair to deal with me in secret, how can I tolerate him, this time I just took this opportunity to do something that should have been done a long time ago......"
King Xun said coldly.
"His Royal Highness King Xun is wise!" everyone applauded.
The first big gang in the imperial city, the gang leader was killed, and a brother in the gang was beaten into a waste by the Xun Wangfu.
Coupled with the fact that Leng Xuan, a staff member of His Royal Highness King Xun, was also killed in Baiyun Temple the day before yesterday, people naturally linked these two incidents together.
Therefore, the truth of the facts that came out of the market was that the Qianlong Gang sent people to kill the staff and cronies of His Royal Highness King Xun, and His Royal Highness King Xun was furious and sent a top master to kill the leader of the Qianlong Gang.
Therefore, no one doubted that there was anything else hidden in it.
His Royal Highness King Xun is missing a think tank staff, and His Majesty the Emperor is missing a secret helper, which sounds like a tie between the two sides.
Then His Majesty the Emperor, who always looked weak to outsiders, personally issued a secret edict to prevent the Qianlong Gang from making trouble because of the death of his gang leader.
It can be regarded as taking into account the overall situation, and avoiding a bloody storm in Lin'an City.
In this Lin'an City, perhaps only Zhang Xiaoxian and the mysterious monk know that this matter is not at all as imagined by the people in Lin'an City.
Because he killed King Xun's staff.
It's just that this incident, after being used by the cunning King Xun, took the opportunity to hit the Qianlong Gang hard.
There is no longer the eldest brother named Xiao Yungu in the Qianlong Gang, and the fourth master of Qi who likes to laugh and scold is gone, and he is replaced by a waste man with no tongue and a broken leg.
Although Zhang Xiaoxian knew that the current situation was not just because he killed Leng Xuanyi, but because of the opportunity to slaughter between the two opposing camps, he still felt guilty and wanted to beat himself.
The little maid has always paid the most attention to Zhang Xiaoxian's every move, but now he is unusual, no longer as fond of talking and laughing as before, and is a little puzzled.
In the past few days, I saw that he stayed in Helan Courtyard and never came back.
Wanwan asked Zhang Linzi, and the answer he got was that Zhang Xiaoxian stayed in the library all day, working hard day and night.
In fact, since Zhang Linzi heard that a person named Leng Xuanyi died in Baiyun Temple, he knew that this matter must have been done by Zhang Xiaoxian.
He had persuaded Zhang Xiaoxian earlier that he would personally erase the few remaining people on the paper with the enemy's name on it, and when he slowly practiced kung fu in Helan Courtyard to a certain extent, he would personally erase it and avenge the Lin family.
However, Zhang Xiaoxian didn't seem to want to wait, so he still hid it from him and killed Leng Xuanyi in Baiyun Temple.
According to common sense, if someone kills an enemy for himself, the other person should be grateful and moved, and even closer to that person.
But the truth is not, Zhang Linzi suddenly has a feeling of being ignored and despised by others.
Xiaoxian, don't you know that I am the only descendant of the Lin family, these enemies let me find an opportunity to kill them personally, what's wrong with avenging our Lin family?
Why do you always have to do this in a hurry, don't you think about his feelings, Zhang Xiaoxian will only make himself look more incompetent by doing this......
In his eyes, he Zhang Linzi is just a waste!
But he was never ......
......
In these days in the library, Zhang Xiaoxian still did not comprehend the mystery of the mysterious scroll, and gradually became irritable.
In the end, because of irritability, he couldn't cultivate at all, and Zhang Xiaoxian, who was a little depressed, decided to go home, sleep well for a day, and let himself relax to see if it would have an effect.
When he came out of Helan Courtyard, turned a corner, and walked towards the road back to Xiliu Street, someone found him.
"Brother Huo!"
Huo Xiao, the commander of the palace guards, suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoxian.
"I'm looking for you for something, come with me!"
Huo Xiao, who was dressed in civilian clothes and had a cold expression, raised his hand at Zhang Xiaoxian, and after stopping him from making a noise, he turned around and walked towards a quiet grove next to him.
Zhang Xiaoxian understood and hurriedly followed.
"Brother Huo, why are you looking for me?
Huo Xiao nodded, there was no smile on his face, he looked at him and said in a deep voice: "You know all about Lao Xiao, he is very likely to be killed by King Xun's people!"
"I know!" Zhang Xiaoxian's expression darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said.
"But do you know who the person who killed Xiao Yungu for King Xun is?"
Zhang Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it the mysterious Zhenyi Master in King Xun's mansion?"
The dead Xiao Yungu was not only the leader of the Qianlong Gang, but also a cultivator of the third layer of the Imperial Light Realm, who was killed like that, and the person who could kill him had to be very advanced in cultivation to do it.
And among the people under King Xun, the person who is most likely to deal with the cultivators of the Imperial Light Realm may be the only one named Zhenyi.
It's just that this person is too secretive, Zhang Xiaoxian has always known little about him, and he also knows that although he is saddened by Xiao Yungu's death.
But he didn't seem to have the strength to avenge his friends now, so he stayed in the library day and night and practiced the exercises painstakingly.
I hope that one day, I can become extremely strong, and then kill strong enemies to avenge Xiao Yungu.
Huo Xiao heard that Zhang Xiaoxian suspected that the master who killed Xiao Yungu was the true one who had been living in seclusion in King Xun's mansion, so he shook his head slightly.
"What's the matter? It's not him, who killed Brother Xiao?"
Huo Xiao's eyebrows were full of pain, he pondered for a while, and said in a dumb voice: " When this incident just happened, I also thought that King Xun might have sent Shinichi to kill Yungu, but, later, I asked people to investigate this matter secretly to find out, it is not at all, that Shinichi is said to be still in retreat in King Xun's mansion, he has been guarding the treasure for so many years, and has not left the door of the room for a single step, according to reliable information, he needs a full eighteen years in this retreat, and he doesn't know what kind of powerful exercise he is cultivating, so it seems impossible to say that he killed Xiao Yungu!"
"It wasn't him, who could it be? Who else has such a powerful cultivation method?"
"Yes, apart from Helan Academy, where is there such a powerful cultivator?"
Huo Xiao said contemplatively.
"Helan Courtyard?" Zhang Xiaoxian exclaimed, "Are you suspected that the person who killed Brother Xiao came from Helan Courtyard?"
Huo Xiao nodded, and speculated: "There are indeed a few powerful cultivators under King Xun, but there are only a handful of cultivators who are higher than Xiao Yungu's cultivation, except for Zhenyi, the genius who has no shadow in the dust has already left and disappeared into the mountains, and there are a few other cultivators who can be compared with Xiao Yungu, but they definitely don't have the strength to kill him, so this person is not from King Xun's mansion......"
"Is it possible that it will come somewhere else, such as the Tianshengmen of the Han Qi Kingdom, the Jianji Mountain of the Yue Ji Country......
Huo Xiao shook his head after hearing this, and said: "It is impossible for the cultivators in these two countries to get involved in these things, you must know that the current situation is a contest between King Xun and His Majesty the Emperor, if they reach out to oppose one of them, and the other party calculates, they will not be able to bear this consequence!"
"So, this person can only be from Helan Courtyard, and this person also knows the identity of Brother Xiao, so kill him?"
Huo Xiao nodded, agreeing with Zhang Xiaoxian's reasoning.
"But this is a bit troublesome, there are so many powerful cultivators in this Helan Academy, how can I find this person?"
"That's why I came to you and asked you to secretly help find out ......" Huo Xiao said to Zhang Xiaoxian: "This person's cultivation must be above Xiao Yungu, if you follow this line of thought, then this person should probably be in the inner gate of Helan Courtyard!"
"You're saying that I'm going to go through the inner door anyway and find the murderer?"
Huo Xiao nodded, "So, everything depends on you, and, I asked, that person was stabbed in the chest during the fight with Yungu!"
......
When he saw Zhang Xiaoxian coming back at the gate of the courtyard, he found that he was walking heavily, as if he had a heavy shell on his back.
She was clever, knowing that Zhang Xiaoxian must have something on her mind, and she no longer pestered him like before, but quietly brought a cup of sweet water.
It is said that sweet things can make people feel good.
It was getting late, and Zhang Linzi didn't know why he was a little stuffy, so he went to his room early in the morning to rest.
In the small courtyard, only Zhang Xiaoxian and Wanwan were left looking into the hazy distance together.
"Wanwan, do you think I'm useless?" Zhang Xiaoxian suddenly asked.
"You seem to be a little sad when you say this!" Bending turned his head to look at Zhang Xiaoxian with flashing eyes.
"I'm a little sad, because one of my eldest brothers, who is close to life and death, died, but I don't have the ability to avenge him, because I have to enter the inner door of Helan Courtyard, and only if I learn the skills will I hope to do other things, but it's too difficult to enter the inner door, and I don't seem to be very sure yet, this can't work, this is not my style, but I can't think of any good way......"
Zhang Xiaoxian said with a depressed face, his brows furrowed extremely tightly, as if he was about to squeeze water out of his forehead.
"How do you get into that inner door?" asked Wanwan.
"Everything else is okay, that is, I have to understand an illusory wordless book, and only after reading this wordless book can I be eligible to be admitted to the inner door......"
Zhang Xiaoxian and the little maid said.
After saying this, he smiled a little bitterly, what did he say to a little girl, where would she understand.
What he didn't expect was that the little maid listened to his words, tilted her little head and thought about it, and said, "Since it is a wordless book, what else to read, it is better to burn it, and your homework will be considered complete......"
Zhang Xiaoxian listened and almost sat on the ground.
Anyway, this little maid has a very short temper!
