Chapter 376: Shadowless Needle
After Wu Yin escaped from the prison, he knew that he had come here to meet the Lin Lord, which at least showed that the deserted house was not their temporary stronghold, at least they had been here more than once, so Wu Yin chose to come here after escaping.
Suddenly, out of the corner of Li Canghai's eyes, he caught a glimpse of something in the corner.
It was the size of a fist, a tiny incense burner.
Li Canghai's heart moved, and he hurriedly walked over and picked up the incense burner.
There were still ashes left in the incense burner, and there was still half a finger length of incense in the ashes.
Li Canghai pinched the residual incense in his hand and looked at it carefully.
He found that the residual incense had not been burning for a long time, and combined with the spirit tablet without a name, Li Canghai suddenly had an idea: Lord Lin was paying tribute to someone.
This person is very important to him, it may be a relative, it may also be a master, in short, it is very important to him.
According to conventional logic, if you want to pay tribute to someone, you must write your name on the spirit tablet, so that people can know who the person you are paying tribute to is.
However, the card was empty.
Unless, the person he worships cannot be known to outsiders.
In this case, there are only two possibilities.
One is that the name is taboo for oneself, and the other is that the name is taboo for others.
And Lord Lin's respect for the spirit card is obviously not feared by him, so there is only one possibility left, this name is taboo by others.
Names that are taboo by others must have a different past.
The more Li Canghai thought about it, the clearer his thinking became, different from ordinary people's past, it was nothing more than causing harm to others, or being hurt himself.
And in the whole world, there is only one thing that can make people taboo about names. That's the Emperor's words!
Only when the emperor ordered that it should not be mentioned would there be such a shock.
Li Canghai's heart suddenly moved, he opened his eyes suddenly, and stared straight at the courtyard.
"Could it be that this courtyard has something to do with Lord Lin?" A thought crossed his mind in an instant.
Come to think of it. Li Canghai hurriedly rushed out of the side room and went straight to the courtyard.
In the courtyard, the mounds were towering, and a few artemisia grasses were scattered in the wind, making them even more desolate in the gloom.
Li Canghai walked between the mounds and observed each mound one by one, and he found that they all had one thing in common, none of them had a tombstone or any hint that could indicate the name of the deceased.
Not only that, but in front of the largest mound. He also found some traces of worship.
Li Canghai squatted down and wiped the ashes with his hands, although those traces were not obvious, he could still see that the traces of this worship were only a month at most.
He stood up, looked at the weeds around him, and grabbed the half-human-tall artemisia grass beside him, and Li Canghai found that the artemisia grass had obvious traces of pruning.
Xiao Wu, who was following behind Li Canghai, also discovered this, and he said in surprise: "My lord." The mounds had been cleared. ”
Li Canghai nodded, and he swept over the dense grave mound. After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Xiao Wu, immediately send more people to guard this mansion strictly, and no one is allowed to approach!" ”
Xiao Wu saw Li Canghai's solemn face, and knew that he must have discovered something. Busy nodded vigorously.
"My lord, what did you find?" Xiao Wu asked suspiciously.
Li Canghai said deeply: "It's too early to say, I'll leave this place to you to guard, I need to go back immediately." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I'll leave it to me." Xiao Wu said solemnly.
Leave the deserted house. Li Canghai hurried back to Di Mansion, he thought of some possibilities, and he had to hurry up to confirm.
When he first arrived at Di Mansion, he found that Di Qing was looking for him.
"Canghai, you came just in time, I was about to look for you!"
"What?" Li Canghai touched his nose and asked in surprise.
Di Qing took out a cloth bag, and after unfolding it, there were three milli needles in it, she pointed to the milli needle and said: "Canghai, this is given to me by the eldest brother, I recognize this kind of milli needle, this is called 'Shadowless Needle', it is a terrifying secret weapon on the rivers and lakes, from the Tang Gate of Xishu." ”
"Oh? What else do you know? Li Canghai was overjoyed, he actually forgot Di Qing's martial arts dictionary.
Di Qing frowned slightly, and said: "The 'Shadowless Needle' is the treasure of the Tang Sect, according to legend, it was stolen by Tang Ao, a rebel of the Tang Sect, a few years ago, and used it to commit bloody crimes on the rivers and lakes, causing all the major sects in the rivers and lakes to join forces to hunt down, but later they lost their traces inexplicably, and no one even knew whether they were alive or dead. ”
Li Canghai's brows furrowed slightly, and he muttered: "In this way, a murderer in the rivers and lakes who has disappeared for several years suddenly appears and kills the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu', this is really getting more and more interesting." ”
Di Qing said worriedly: "Canghai, Tang Ao's martial arts are weird, and the 'Shadowless Needle' is the king of hidden weapons, which makes it impossible to prevent it, you must be careful!" ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "I don't care about the 'shadowless needle' yet. By the way, Qing'er, do you know about the deserted house? ”
"Deserted house?" Di Qing tilted her head and thought about it, and said: "I only remember that there was a tragedy when I was a child, but the specific reason is not very clear, you can ask the eldest brother and the second brother about this matter." ”
As he was talking, Di Ying and the housekeeper walked in while talking, and Di Qing hurriedly greeted: "Second brother, you came just in time, Canghai has something to ask you!" ”
Di Ying was stunned for a moment, explained a few words to the housekeeper, and then walked over and asked suspiciously, "Canghai, what do you want to ask?" I'm not going to look into cases! ”
Li Canghai suddenly laughed, Di Qing gave him a direct look, and said coquettishly: "When it comes to investigating cases, who can compare to Canghai?" He just wanted to ask you about the deserted house. ”
Di Ying stretched out her hand and patted her on the head, and scolded with a smile: "You girl, you have maintained him like this before you got married, if you wait to get married, won't you even forget the eldest brother and second brother?" ”
Di Qing grinned, her face instantly turned red, and she said a little shyly: "Second brother, you are making fun of me again, ignoring you!" Hum! ”
"But speaking of that deserted house, it's really a tragedy!" Di Ying was full of emotion, he shook his head, and seemed to be stuck in a long memory.
"Second brother, what's going on?" Di Qing blinked and asked curiously.
Di Ying sighed, let the two of them sit down, took a sip of tea, and said, "At that time, you were taken away by the Immortal Chief, because you didn't know what happened, what a tragic word. ”
Li Canghai frowned slightly, from the time he saw those graves, he could guess the tragic situation at that time.
I heard Di Ying say: "That house was originally owned by a general in the court, and the general was trusted by the saint because he helped the saint to quell the rebellion of Princess Taiping, and later because of his meritorious service to the border, he was even crowned a marquis, and he was in the limelight in Luoyang City." However, just when he was proud, it was suddenly rumored that he collaborated with the enemy and treason, which coincided with the invasion of Guazhou by Tubo, and the saint was furious, so he ordered him to be beheaded.
