This sudden scream made everyone who was fighting in the wing room take a step back and stop each other in tacit understanding, but it can be seen from Hua Rong's small action of shaking his hand slightly without showing a trace that in the fight just now, he should have lost.

After hearing the screams, Gao Quanye and the others did not dare to slack off, and took the lead in leading the family to hurry in the direction where the sound came from, and Gao Quanwu also snorted softly, giving a look full of meaning to teach you a lesson in the future, and then waved his hand, and followed closely behind Gao Quanye and the others with those soldiers of Yulinwei.

Bai Qing had already gotten up from the ground at this time, touching the wound on his body and hissing and inhaling the cold air, after glancing at Hua Rong, both showed a wry smile, and then, Bai Qing took a step back and bowed respectfully to Hua Rong: "Thank you Brother Hua for making a righteous move just now!" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, hoeing the strong and helping the weak is what people like us who practice martial arts should do!" Hua Rong waved his hand, picked up Bai Qing, and said sincerely, but Hua Rong also had his own thoughts, and he was afraid that those princes would not take it seriously, if he befriended Bai Qing, he might not be able to help himself in the future.

"Anyway, this is the second time you have made a move for me, Brother Hua's chivalrous heart really makes me admire, I am really lucky to be able to get to know Brother Hua and you!" Although they have only known each other for three days, Hua Rong's chivalry and temper are very good for Bai Qing's appetite, and he feels that he is indeed a character worth befriending.

The two complimented each other, and they were also very curious about what had just happened, so they also rushed straight to the direction where the voice had just come from.

When they walked over there, they had been guarded in a circle by the soldiers of Yu Linwei, and at the same time blocked some of the crowds behind them who were watching the excitement, not letting them get close, Bai Qing and Hua Rong squeezed inside, a soldier of Yu Linwei glanced back, and after recognizing Bai Qing and Hua Rong's faces, he let them in, without saying anything, a few people who were stopped outside couldn't help but complain, but they were looked at by the soldier with a fierce gaze, and they were too frightened to make a sound.

As soon as he entered the door, he could smell a strong smell of sandalwood, and after coming to the front, Bai Qing saw that in this hall that was supposed to be dedicated to the Bodhisattva, a pot-bellied man was lying on the ground, straight and motionless, it seemed that he should be dead, not far from him, there were two pale monks, an old man and a young man, and a middle-aged woman who looked frightened, and at her feet, there was an overturned lotus lamp, and the lamp oil spilled from it dripped.

Gao Quanye, Gao Quanwu, Gao Quangong and others were standing next to the corpse, waiting for the results of the autopsy.

In ancient times, human life was still very important, and the death of such a thing could almost be regarded as a big event, and it was in the temple in this pure place of Buddhism, not to mention in the temple of Daxiangguo Temple, which was deeply respected by the royal family. As for Gao Quanwu's words about killing Bai Qing or something just now, in fact, it was just a threat to Bai Qing, aside from Bai Qing's current fiancΓ© in the Tai Mansion, even if he was a civilian, as long as he had an official household registration, even he would not dare to kill him openly.

Bai Qing first squatted next to the corpse and carefully observed for a while, and then walked back and forth in the main hall, when passing the middle-aged woman, a faint fragrance came from the woman, so that Bai Qing was stunned, and couldn't help but look at her twice, and suddenly accidentally stepped on the puddle of lamp oil on the ground, he quickly withdrew his feet and stomped on the ground twice, so as not to stain his boots with oil, and there were suddenly a few more clear footprints on the blue bricks on the ground of the main hall.

"Hey, hey, who let you in, this is also the place where you can come!" Everyone was waiting for the result of the work, and at this juncture, Bai Qing's movements were particularly eye-catching here, and Gao Quanwu, who was still a little indignant in his heart, suddenly found out, and shouted loudly at Bai Qing.

It's just that Bai Qing ignored him, lowered his head to himself, looked at the soles of his boots, his nose moved slightly, and then returned to the corpse, looked at it again from head to toe, and then lowered his head with a pensive look.

Seeing that Bai Qing ignored his words, Gao Quanwu couldn't help but be even more angry, just when he wanted to walk over and drive Bai Qing away, the man stood up at this time, as if he had finished experiencing the corpse, Gao Quanwu stopped, glared at Bai Qing who didn't look at him, and then focused on the body of the man.

"Back to His Royal Highness, Lord Sun, he should have died of a violent disease!" After looking at the corpse back and forth, the servant got up and said to the three princes, with a sure look on his face.

"What do you say!" After hearing the words, Gao Quanye's expression looked a little puzzled, the identity of the person in front of him was not an ordinary person, but the new Honglu Temple Chengsun Yinhu, it is said that he had been lurking in Manichaeism before, and had mastered a lot of key information about Manichaeism, and just escaped from Manichaeism this month and returned to the imperial court, because after the destruction of the Liao State, the attention of the imperial court has shifted to Song Jiang and Fang La, and his status in the court is also rising with the tide. I just didn't think about it, but I died here.

"Judging from his body, he is neatly dressed, there are no scars at all, and there are no traces of fighting around, and there is no sign of loss of property, after the villain's silver needle pricked his throat, no signs of poisoning were found, it should not be his killing, looking at his face distorted, he was extremely painful when he should die, and he was suspected of a sudden illness, and died suddenly!" It was obviously not the first autopsy, and the conclusion was quickly given.

Gao Quanye bowed his head and was silent, while Gao Quanwu was a simple-minded martial artist with well-developed limbs, his head was full of muscles, and he was also standing there at this time, staring at him with big eyes, only Gao Quanye, with a turn of his eyes, walked towards the two monks and the middle-aged woman, and asked, "Tell me, what was the situation before Lord Sun died!" ”

"You speak first!" After a pause, Gao Quanzheng turned his gaze to the middle-aged woman and said in a deep voice to him.

The middle-aged woman was obviously frightened, at this time her dark hands were still on her chest and kept stroking back and forth, as if she was calming her mood, her eyes stared straight at the corpse, her face was pale, until Gao Quancheng asked her, she came back to her senses, just listened to the words, the three princes in front of her who were still noble, couldn't help but look even more frightened: "Back to His Royal Highness, the slave family is a person from Ankangfang, I came to this temple today to pray for two pillars of incense on my dead man, just came for a while, this adult came, saw that he was just standing there, the slave family did not pay much attention, so let the two masters over there read two scriptures to my dead ghost man, but I didn't expect that just after a while, when the slave family was about to offer the lotus lantern, the adult suddenly fell, at first we didn't care, but after waiting for a while he didn't get up, the slave family had the courage to go over and look, only to find that he was dead! As she spoke, the middle-aged woman patted her chest from time to time, looking like she had palpitations.

Although this woman is not young, her skin is dark and dry, her appearance is inconspicuous, although the clothes on her body are a little shabby, but they are very neat, and the white middle clothes inside are spotless, but in the faint fragrance can still smell a sour smell of sweat, which is really a bit of a bad scenery.

Seeing that the middle-aged woman was frightened and had no master, and her words were a little trembling, Gao Quancheng turned his eyes to the two monks and asked in a deep voice, "Is what she just said true?" ”

Compared with the middle-aged woman, although the older monk is also pale, but at this time has completely calmed down, just now, he was still silently reciting the "Mantra of Death" next to the corpse, but a compassionate heart, after hearing Gao Quancheng's question, he opened his eyes, and made a bow to Gao Quancheng respectfully: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, what this female Bodhisattva said is true, this female Bodhisattva has come to the temple very early to pray for incense, poor monks and disciples and this female Bodhisattva three, I didn't have any contact with this adult, and after the adult came in, he stood alone in front of the Buddha, and soon he suddenly collapsed on his own, and I don't know what the reason was...... The female bodhisattva was so frightened that she even dropped the lotus lantern she was going to worship! ”

Gao Quancheng pondered for a moment, then returned to the corpse, and examined it carefully, even if he was not proficient in autopsy, but he could see that although the corpse's face looked a little hideous, it was similar to the appearance of those people he had seen who died of illness, could it be that he really died of a sudden illness? Gao Quancheng was also a little hesitant in his heart.

"If you want me to say forget it first, find someone to report it to Kaifeng Mansion, and let the people from Kaifeng Mansion take over for the time being, a few of us can't find out why here......" Gao Quanwu was not interested in this kind of case or anything at all, but as a prince, under the eyes of everyone, it was human life, so he just walked away, and he felt that the middle-aged woman and the monk were right, and the death of the Honglu Temple Cheng didn't see anything too wrong, even the presumptuous said, He said to Gao Quanye and Gao Quangong with some impatience.

Gao Quanye and Gao Quanye heard this, glanced at each other, from each other's eyes, it seemed that they were also a little moved by Gao Quanwu's words, and the pretense was also a positive look, so they had the intention of leaving, at this time, a voice suddenly sounded in the field, their hearts moved suddenly, their eyes brushed in the direction where the voice came, and saw Bai Qingzheng squatting in front of the corpse, stroking his smooth chin back and forth, frowning and saying:

"Wait, he didn't die of illness, he was killed......"
