Chapter Ninety-Six: Unbelievable

Hearing that Tong Zhen had an important discovery there, Liu Hua didn't dare to slack off, comforted Zhang Wanggu a few words, and then rode away from the county office.

Zhang Wanggu looked back at the corpse in the room, and was suddenly sad, only to see him covering his heart with his hands, sitting on the steps and crying bitterly, two lines of old tears instantly stained his clothes.

When Liu Hua rode to Huang Tianxiao's village, he met Tong Zhen from the entrance of the village, Tong Zhen and dozens of catchers surrounded the entrance of the village.

"What about Tianxiao's corpse? Show me. After Liu Hua got off the horse, he couldn't wait to ask.

After asking, Liu Hua saw that in the place where the catchers were enclosed, a tall horse was parked, and on the horseback was a headless male corpse, although the head of the corpse was cut off, but according to the clothes and saber on the deceased's body, Liu Hua could see at a glance that the deceased was Huang Tianxiao.

Although Liu Hua has not been in contact with Huang Tianxiao for a long time, Liu Hua admires him very much, and Liu Hua originally planned to reuse Huang Tianxiao, but he didn't expect that he would be killed now.

Walking to Huang Tianxiao's corpse with a sad expression, Liu Hua looked at the corpse that no longer had a head, his nose moved, he seemed to have found something? Immediately afterwards, Liu Hua surveyed the body with a solemn expression, and after the examination, Liu Hua stood there without saying a word.

"Forget it, don't be sad, Tianxiao is gone, everyone is uncomfortable, give, this is what Tianxiao held in his hand before the temporary, take a look." As soon as the words fell, Tong Zhen handed Liu Hua a piece of paper with formatting.

After Liu Hua took the paper, he looked at it carefully, and it turned out that this was a page torn from a certain register, and only a few words were recorded on it: "Suzhou Jinling City Shuiyue Nunnery Miaohui, thirty years old, on March 21, 49 years of Kangxi, came to Shengliu Lane, Xicheng, Canal County, and lived in the Zhangwang Ancient Courtyard to teach Buddhism. ”

After reading the information on the paper, Liu Hua thought for a moment, and then sighed softly: "So that's the case, alas...... It's a pity, now that this physical evidence is no longer needed, I already know who the murderer is, Tianxiao, you can go with peace of mind, I will try my best to catch Li Mu. ”

After seeing that Liu Hua finished speaking, he stood in place again and was stunned, Tong Zhen persuaded a few words, and then he instructed the catcher behind him: "Move Tianxiao's body away, and when it is dawn, invite a Taoist priest from nearby to overtake it, and then bury him, remember, don't tell his father about Tianxiao's death first, so as not to make the old man unbearable." ”

Seeing Tong Zhen helping Zhang Luo with his funeral, Liu Hua sighed and said with a painful expression: "Chief Catcher, I'll leave it to you here, I'll go back to Yangzhou first, and when Tianxiao is the first seven, I'll come over to see him off."

The head of the annoying labor chief reported this case to the Criminal Department, not that we are incompetent, but that the enemy is too strong, the murderer of this series of cases is Li Mu of the Heaven and Earth Society, and now Li Mu is likely to escape back to the head of the Heaven and Earth Society, and this case will also become an unsolved case.

Alas...... If someone else killed Tianxiao, I could still help him avenge him, but now, I know who the murderer is, but I can't do anything, I'm really ashamed, Heaven and Earth Society, Heaven and Earth Society, where can I go to find the people of Heaven and Earth Society? That's it, this is Tianxiao's fate. ”

After saying this, Liu Hua rode away from here with regret on his face, looking at Liu Hua's distant back, Tong Zhen also sighed: "Everyone be quick with your hands and feet, let Tianxiao rest in peace as soon as possible." ”

When Tong Zhen was busy with Huang Tianxiao's funeral, the sky gradually brightened, and about five miles away from Huang Tianxiao's village, there was a Yin Mansion Ancestral Hall, which enshrined the ashes of some people who died in an accident.

According to superstition, these people have suffered an accidental death, so the soul has a strong spirit, if buried in their own cemetery, it will harm future generations and destroy the family's feng shui, so if someone in a certain household dies tragically, regardless of the identity of the deceased, they are not allowed to be buried in their own house.

It is precisely because of this saying that there is a public yin house ancestral hall built in each county, which is specially used to store the ashes of these deceased people, and the effect is somewhat similar to the funeral parlors of later generations.

The Yin Mansion Ancestral Hall in the territory of Canal County, built in the willow ridge of the west gate of the county seat, covers an area of more than ten acres, this place is surrounded by water on both sides, backed by a hill, a willow forest in front of the door, and there is a natural pool on the left and right.

According to Mr. Feng Shui, the Shuanghe here is isolated from yin and yang, the Xuanwu behind it suppresses ghosts, the willow forest sweeps away the anger of the dead, and the left and right pools wash away the resentment of the soul, which is the best place to build the ancestral hall of the Yin House.

There is a stone wall of gossip ornamentation in front of the ancestral hall of this yin house, the door is a little dilapidated, the walls around the body are built with all the same color of green bricks, after pushing the door in, there is a gatehouse at the door, which is the residence of the people who take care of the ancestral hall, but usually no one lives here at all.

After passing the gatehouse, the first thing that catches your eye is a huge stone statue of Zhong Kui, behind which there is a row of green brick paved paths, along the path back, you can see a house similar to a palace, and the house is dedicated to the spiritual seats of all kinds of people who have died.

At this moment, a man dressed in a peasant's clothes, kneeling on the ground and burning paper, placed five urns in front of him, looking at the urns in front of him, this man was crying and gently wiping the dust from the urn with his hand.

At this moment, a young man with a sword appeared at the door of the house, and when he felt the breath behind him, the farmer stopped crying, gently put the urns back on the wooden shelf one by one, and then kowtowed respectfully three times.

When he had done this, the farmer took a strip of cloth from his sleeve and tied it to his face, covering half of his cheek with it, as if he did not want to be recognized, and only after tying the strip of cloth did he turn around.

Seeing that the visitor was very unfamiliar, the farmer asked in a cold voice, "Who are you?" ”

"The one who wants your life." Seeing that the young man's sword was swift and fast, the farmer did not dare to take it lightly, drew his sword, poured enough internal strength, and slashed towards the opponent's sword.

I saw that the farmer's figure was as light as a fluttering flotsy, and the dust was not raised, and this light skill alone was enough to show that this person's skills were extraordinary, and the young man opposite him was not good at stubble, his body was like a ghost, fast as lightning, and the two exchanged hands in an instant.

The farmer's knife technique is very exquisite, between the moves, open and close, the roll is like the wind, a move is powerful, the knife is pressing, for a time, the farmer's hand is vertical and horizontal, the knife is fierce and incomparable, under a fierce attack, the farmer gradually suppressed the young man's sword.

Although the young man is not very old, but a sword in his hand is very sophisticated, the sword blade is suddenly to the left, suddenly to the right, the sword qi shoots horizontally, the sword is swept, facing the opponent's blade and attacking again and again, after a few moves, the young man has regained the disadvantage.

The young man's swordsmanship is exquisite, the farmer's knife technique is wonderful, and the exercises of the two are also equal, such a fight, it is hard to fight more than a hundred rounds, seeing that the victory and defeat cannot be divided in a short time, the young man's body retreated, taking advantage of the gap in the distance, the long sword in his hand posed a strange posture, and at the same time, the internal force of the whole body seemed to be instilled into the sword as if he did not want to die.

After the farmer saw the young man's posture, he felt that he was locked by the opponent's sword, and after such a while, the opponent's sword body had actually begun to shoot out sword energy, if the opponent sent the move, he couldn't take it, I was afraid that his life would be in danger.

Thinking of this, the farmer changed his single-handed knife to holding the knife with both hands, injected the internal force of his whole body into the knife, and then quickly slashed three knives into the void, and as he slashed out these three knives, an illusory knife shadow appeared in the void.

After three swords, the farmer slashed three more swords, and then three more swords, these nine swords seemed to have used up the strength of his whole body, and when the ninth swords were slashed, the shadow of the knife in mid-air had a substantial feeling.

Seeing the sword shadow forming, the farmer roared "Ten Swords Break Yue", as soon as the roar fell, he took the strength of his whole body to split out the powerful tenth knife, and with this knife splitting, the knife shadow in the air followed the farmer's Wanjun knife momentum and slashed towards the young man.

When the farmer's move "Ten Swords Break Yue" was used, the young man's move was also sacrificed, only to hear the young man shout: "Slay the dragon", and then, he saw the long sword in his hand turn into a circle of sword shadows like a fan open, cold and piercing sword qi shot out in all directions, and at the same time, his body burst up, the human sword was one, and turned into a trace of lightning towards the sword shadow.

"Ding...... Bite...... Bite...... Clang...... Clang...... After a loud sound of gold and iron, the two figures instantly separated from the air, and after the two figures landed, the ancestral hall had been half demolished by them.......

The doors and windows of the ancestral hall were all turned into sawdust, the green bricks on the walls were also split into pieces, the roof was pierced by sword qi and knife qi with hundreds of holes, the stone slabs on the ground had countless scratches, and some urns and spiritual tablets near the door were all turned into pieces.

The blow just now seemed to have exhausted all the internal strength of the two of them, and at this moment, both of them were half-kneeling on the ground, supporting their bodies with weapons in their hands, panting in their mouths, and looking at each other with unblinking eyes.

The clothes on the two of them had all turned into strips of cloth, the strip of cloth covering the farmer's face was gone, and the sleeve of the young man's right arm was missing.

At this moment, there was a burst ......of applause outside the door, and after the applause fell, Liu Hua walked in from outside the door, looking at the farmer in front of him, Liu Hua said with a smile: "Tianxiao, haven't you been killed?" Why is it here again? Don't? Is this your ghost? ”
