In the dilapidated temple, the beauty in yellow looked back and turned her head to look at Nangong Jun, and was about to say something, when she accidentally found Wu Ruotang, who was a little sneaky outside the house.

"Who?" The beauty in yellow changed her face slightly.

The five people in the broken temple turned their heads to look at Wu Ruotang at the same time, and in the face of everyone's suspicious gaze, Wu Ruotang smiled and said: "Below are the nearby residents, I heard that there was movement in this temple, so come and have a look!" ”

Wu Ruotang's words made Nangong Jun and the others' hands that were already about to draw their swords loosen slightly, but they were still highly vigilant, because looking at Wu Ruotang's dress, it looked like a practicing family.

"Do you know that there are dead people in this temple?" The beauty in yellow said expressionlessly.

Wu Ruotang was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I don't know, but I guessed!" ”

"Huh?" The beauty in yellow was a little curious.

"Where there is a work, there are dead people, this is an eternal truth!" Wu Ruotang said lightly.

The beauty in yellow smiled dumbly, this is indeed reasonable.

"Little brother come in and take a look, do you know or have you seen this person?" An older middle-aged man in the same clothes spoke.

Wu Ruotang nodded slightly, and then swaggered into the broken temple, pretending that somehow, maybe he deliberately couldn't get along with Wu Ruotang, and when he saw this guy coming in, he immediately got up and said respectfully to Nangong Jun: "This person was killed about three hours ago, and there are seven sword marks in his heart, and in addition, there are no other injuries on his body, and there are no signs of poisoning, it is obvious that this person died under the sword." ”

Nangong Jun glanced at the corpse's chest and only said, "Seven Swords Chasing Souls." ”

The middle-aged man who invited Wu Ruotang into the temple trembled, and his footing was almost unstable, but fortunately, the young man next to him supported him, and hurriedly defended again and again: "This person was definitely not killed by our faction." He died three hours ago, and at that time, Uncle Shi and I were both in the game, and Master Mei was still in the game. ”

The middle-aged man Bai Xiangtian and the young man are the heads of a small local sect in Xiangyang and the three unique sects. He also runs a dart club. The size is also the number one person. Infinity claims to be a 5,000-year-old civilization in China, and it can be said that almost as long as there are recorded martial arts and gangs, they can be searched from here. Many sects are strange and strange, so players have never heard of them at all.

Mei Yunqing, a beautiful woman in yellow, saw that Bai Xiangtian was also a famous figure in martial arts, and he was also the head of a faction, how could she think that he was so timid, she couldn't help but laugh secretly in her heart, and then helped her prove it: "Master Bai is telling the truth, I can prove it!" ”

Nangong Jun smiled slightly: "I didn't say that it was done by the Three Peerless Sects, but I just speculated a little, in fact, I also know a little bit about this style of Seven Swords Soul Chasing." After speaking, he was not seen draw his sword. Hearing only a sword roar, the sword light flashed, Nangong Jun had already returned the sword into the sheath, and seven small holes had appeared on a wooden rafter in front of him, the hole was extremely small and deep, as if it had been penetrated, and the seven small holes were closely connected, if you didn't look closely, it would be difficult to see that it was caused by the seven swords, and it was the same as the scar on Ding Xiaoquan's chest. That skill and refinement are pure and white, and he still sighs to himself after ten years of practice.

Mei Yunqing couldn't help but applaud and praised: "Nangong Gongzi's reputation as the 'Ten Perfect Son' is really worthy of his reputation. ”

Nangong Jun boasted that he was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even claimed to be proficient in the world's martial arts. He said humbly: "Miss Mei praised it falsely. Although he said this, his face was unconsciously proud.

Wu Ruotang, who was playing soy sauce on the side, couldn't help but smile coldly, this Nangong Jun is still a little too tender after all, Mei Yunqing just said it, if you want to win the favor of the beauty at this moment, your attitude should be more humble. It's good for you to be stupid, lest others not know that you are talented and stupid!

Wu Ruotang is no longer the Wuxia Ameng of the past, his speculation is actually extremely correct, and Mei Yunqing's evaluation of Nangong Jun in his heart has dropped several heights.

Although he knew that he might have encountered a certain plot again, Wu Ruotang did not plan to stay, and he was entangled in everything at the moment, and he really shouldn't stay for a long time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is still something important to do, so I will leave first!" Wu Ruotang clenched his hands into fists and prepared to leave. Mei Yuqing and the others all nodded slightly, but this Nangong Jun didn't know if it was a mistake, so he drew his sword and stopped Wu Ruotang: "Brother Tai, please stay, before the matter is clear, I hope Brother Tai will stay here, don't go anywhere!" ”

"Huh?" Wu Ruotang was a little dizzy, why did this matter have anything to do with him?

Mei Yuqing on the side also spoke: "Nangong Gongzi, this young man uses a knife!" ”

Mei Yuqing's meaning is obvious, people use knives, and the deceased suffered sword wounds, so how can he be a murderer.

In order to show himself in front of the beauties, Nangong Jun managed so much, and opened his mouth: "Miss Mei must not be confused by superficial phenomena, who can guarantee that the murderer deliberately wears a knife in order to clear his suspicion, so that others mistakenly think that he is a swordsman?" ”

This divine inference made Wu Ruotang angry and funny, if it was left in the past, Wu Ruotang would definitely turn his face, but now, maybe he is mixing in officialdom, and now Xiaotang's belly is much wider, so he stopped talking at the moment, stood aside obediently, and watched Nangong Jungao's argument.

Mei Yuqing looked at Wu Ruotang with a hint of suspicion, he was insulted by this, he could still be so light-hearted, either a traitor or a big-minded knight.

After a nutritious conversation, everyone didn't speculate on anything, although Nangong Jun coveted Mei Yuqing's beauty, but he also knew the background of the other party, and he didn't dare to make it too obvious, and after striking Wu Ruotang and brushing his sense of existence, several NPCs left one after another.

Wu Ruotang smiled helplessly, this Nangong Jun is purely using himself as a stepping stone, but this guy obviously didn't understand Mei Yuqing's temper, the more you show yourself like this, the more people don't feel for you! Alas, young!

In the empty temple, there were only Wu Ruotang and the dead corpses underground, looking at the miserable appearance of the buddy on the ground, Wu Ruotang couldn't help sighing, and then turned to leave.

In Xiangyang City, the players have already turned the world upside down at this moment, and all the major forces hope to get Jiang Ziya, but they can't imagine that Jiang Ziya has been given by Wu Ruotang first.

Wu Ruotang returned to the broken temple, closed the door of Jiang Ziya's room, and hurried to Qiongzhou.

Jiang Ziya's arrival surprised Fan Da, and he went out of the city fifty miles to greet him, obviously, he was extremely respectful to Jiang Ziya.

The two chatted all the way in the carriage. Then he said goodbye, Fan Zeng returned to Nanhaiwei, and Jiang Ziya directly entered Qiongzhou Mansion and took over everything in Qiongzhou.

Qi Jiguang and other generals originally captured Qiongzhou. I was at a loss, I was stationed and withdrawn, and no one gave me a word! I never thought that as soon as Jiang Ziya came, he directly ordered them to control the four gates and check the officials! At the same time, let the time change. Anyone who is disobedient will be arranged to be taken down on a charge, and for a while, the Qiongzhou Mansion was full of rumors, and all the officials of all sizes could not sleep and eat.

The officials sent by the Criminal Department have also set off, because the matter is very important, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have also sent people to investigate! It seems that there is a posture of investigating to the end.

As things continue to ferment, most of the Ming Feng knows about it now, and everyone is waiting. If Wu Ruotang can escape the catastrophe this time and go up to the wind, the big guy will have to accept it if he is not convinced.

Outside the Shanhai Pass, the remnant sun is like blood, and the millions of heroes of the Mingfeng Empire and the Qingyang Empire are facing each other across the pass.

"Sir, this Wu Xiaotang is really interesting!" Zhu Di, who was dressed in black and gold armor, looked at the information in his hand and couldn't help laughing.

Yao Guangxiao touched his bare head, and said with a hint of fierceness: "Lord Wang, this person's methods are really powerful, from an unknown small military household. To the commander with a heavy army, now he is capturing the palace, but His Royal Highness Taisun is still supporting him behind his back, which is really one of the big hidden dangers of the prince's hegemony! ”

Zhu Di frowned slightly: "Sir." What hegemony is not hegemony, this world belongs to my nephew! ”

"Lord Wang, you!" Yao Guangxiao wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Zhu Di.

"Okay, sir, I'll talk about these words later!" Zhu Di waved his hand.

"Yes. Rajah! Yao Guangxiao shut up helplessly, but there was a flash of murder in his eyes, this Wu Xiaotang must die.

Wu Ruotang teleported back to Qiongzhou, and after a brief exchange with Jiang Ziya, he handed over all military and political affairs to him, and he took Jinse incense to practice martial arts.

"Boss, are you going to participate in the tournament?" Jin Se Fan Xiang practiced for a long time, and he was drenched in sweat.

"No, that's not for me!" Wu Ruotang shook his head and said.

Jin Se Mixiang frowned slightly, obviously thinking about something, Wu Ruotang of course guessed what this girl was thinking, smiled slightly, and quietly transferred 200,000 taels of gold to her infinite account.

"Boss, it's not yet the day of payroll?" Soon, Jinse Mixiang received a system prompt and was pleasantly surprised.

Wu Ruotang raised his head at a forty-five degree angle, looked up at the sky and said proudly: "Don't ask me why, I am rich and willful!" ”

Jinse Mixiang: "~~~~!" ”

Early in the morning, Wu Ruotang hurriedly got off the line, and after breakfast, he walked around the campus and returned to the dormitory. Yesterday I was impulsive, 200,000 gone, and now I think about this guy is still a little distressed.

"Money, money, you have to find a way to make money!" Wu Ruotang couldn't help but think in his heart.

As soon as he went online, Wu Ruotang was informed by his subordinates that the adults of the Three Law Divisions were about to come over, and Jiang Ziya let himself go out of the city to greet him.

It is rare for the three legal divisions to appear at the same time, but this matter in Qiongzhou has a great impact, and it is reasonable for the three legal divisions to work together to investigate the case.

Wu Ruotang was dressed in official uniforms, and swaggered out of the city to greet him with a guard of honor, and the three law divisions came to be the same level as the three officials, and after a while of greetings between the two, Wu Ruotang invited the three adults to the mansion to rest for a while.

Hu Zhongcai, the waiter of the Criminal Department, and Shi Weiming, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, are all here to play soy sauce. They are all descendants of the former prince, and now that the prince is dead, they are naturally loyal to the grandson. In addition, the grandson had some advice before leaving, so their investigation was purely a scene.

Zheng Fuyi, the imperial historian of the Imperial Procuratorate, had a cold face, as a clear stream in the court, he had always had a strong sense of justice, and he was determined to find out about this matter.

"Lord Wu, we are here this time to investigate the killing of Ye Zhenming, the commander of the capital! We hope you will fully cooperate with us in our investigation! Zheng Fuyi looked at Wu Ruotang and said with a serious face.

"Well, this is natural, I deeply sympathize and anger at the murder of Lord Ye! As a court official, I strongly condemn and protest against the mastermind behind this incident, here, I want to solemnly say to the murderer, no matter where you hide, you will never want to escape the punishment of the law and justice~~~! ”

"Lord Wu, don't get excited, don't get excited~~!" Hu Zhongcai, who was on the side, saw Wu Ruotang open his sleeves and a posture of preparing for a speech, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

Wu Ruotang glared at him and said, "Lord Hu, you have to understand my mood at the moment, in this matter." I am the biggest victim! The murderer not only brutally killed Lord Ye, but also detained the basin on me, don't you know! These days, I'm not eating well. Sleep badly! As soon as I closed my eyes at night, I saw Lord Ye dangling in front of my eyes, and kept saying: Xiaotang, you are my confidant, you are the person I like the most. You must avenge me, you must avenge me! ”

The senior officials of the Three Law Divisions looked at Wu Ruotang with a demented expression, they couldn't have imagined that Lord Wu, who was rumored to be boiling in the outside world, would have such a ridiculous side.

Finding that the high-ranking officials of the Three Law Divisions were fooled by themselves, Wu Ruotang felt so unhappy, and then continued: "I asked Lord Ye, and I said: Lord Ye, I also want to avenge you, but you have to tell me who the murderer is!" ”

The word murderer is mentioned. Several ears of the Three Law Divisions immediately stood up, and Wu Ruotang smiled slightly: "Lord Ye immediately said to me: The murderer is none other than Yan ~~~~~!" ”

"Wu Xiaotang, shut up!" Zheng Fuyi suddenly stood up and shouted.

Everyone in the living room was taken aback, and Hu Zhongcai, the servant of the Criminal Department, looked at Zheng Fuyi very dissatisfied: "Lord Zheng, as an official of the imperial court, what kind of system does it become to shout and shout in the hall?" ”

Shi Weiming, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, nodded and said, "That's it, Lord Hu." You have been an official for so many years, don't you understand the most basic etiquette? ”

Wu Ruotang immediately saw that among the three people, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple were obviously biased towards him. Only this Metropolitan Procuratorate seems to be deliberately trying to get along with himself!

"Two adults, this can't be blamed on Zheng Yushi, maybe he is used to being Yushi!" Wu Ruotang said this, and there was indeed a sneer on his face.

Hu Zhongcai and Shi Weiming smiled in understanding, indeed. This imperial historian is really annoying, he is always high up to criticize others, there is no one in the Manchu Dynasty who has not suffered the loss of the imperial history, after all, even the emperor dares to scold the lord, what else can they not do.

"You?" Zheng Fuyi's whole body trembled, when had he ever been so humiliated?

Hu Zhongcai, who was on the side, saw that the situation was not quite right, and hurriedly stepped forward to play a round and said: "Okay, okay, Lord Wu, you don't have to say a word, Lord Zheng is a very good person!" Let's hurry up and investigate the case! ”

The three law divisions are headed by the criminal department, Hu Zhongcai said this, Zheng Fuyi naturally didn't want to say anything, Wu Ruotang also smiled and nodded, but the two of them were completely settled.

"Lord Wu, when Ye Zhenming was killed, were you at the scene?" Shi Weiming took out a pen and paper and began to ask.

"Nope!" Wu Ruotang shook his head firmly.

"Before Ye Zhenming was killed, did you notice anything wrong?" Shi Weiming continued.

Wu Ruotang pretended to be a memory, and said slowly: "That's not true, Lord Ye invited me to drink that night, and we had a good chat!" There was nothing out of the ordinary! ”

Shi Weiming nodded, and Zheng Fuyi on the side sneered: "I'm afraid that Lord Wu doesn't dare to think about what happened that night, right?" ”

"What does Zheng Yushi mean by this? What else in this world does I Wu Xiaotang dare not think of? Wu Ruotang fought back.

"Master Shi, let me interrogate!" Zheng Fuyi unceremoniously turned pen and ink paper inkstone, and said solemnly to Wu Ruotang: "How many people did Lord Wu bring to the banquet that night?" ”

"Not much!"

"It's not much, isn't it fifty-three?" Zheng Fuyi asked.

Wu Ruotang's pupils tightened, he added the incense, Shi Potian, and fifty guards, exactly fifty-three.

"Well, yes!" Wu Ruotang nodded. This is dead evidence and cannot be refuted.

Zheng Fuyi smiled proudly: "Then may I ask Lord Wu, where are the fifty people who followed you to the banquet now?" ”

"They, they, they sacrificed their precious lives to protect Lord Ye Zhenming! But their blood will not be shed in vain, they are heroes, they are warriors, and they will have eternal life in the admiration of all nations! Wu Ruotang's face changed instantly, with infinite sadness in his eyes, like a father who lost his beloved son, and his face changed quickly, which amazed everyone present.

Hu Zhongcai has admired this young official's five-body throw, talent, absolute talent, such a person is a natural official, he does not rise step by step, who is qualified to rise step by step, just rely on the ability to cry when he says, without twenty or thirty years of officialdom training, ordinary people will definitely not be able to do it.

"Lord Wu's condolences, we can completely understand your feelings!" Hu Zhongcai comforted.

Zheng Fuyi on the side was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, you sang in your last life.

"Lord Wu, they are your entourage, why did you leave and they didn't follow you away?" Zheng Fuyi asked.

Wu Ruotang closed his eyes and said with a sad look: "Alas, this matter is a long story!" That night, I had a good conversation with Lord Ye, and during the banquet, Lord Ye saw that my entourage was mighty and majestic, and sighed that he did not have such a strong force under him, and blamed me for drinking too much, so he immediately said to Lord Ye: My lord, if you fancy my fifty brothers, I will give them to you! ”

After a pause, Wu Ruotang continued: "Lord Ye himself is also a person who loves talents, and after some resignation, he accepted it, he never thought about it, he didn't think about it~~~~~ hey! Regret not being at the beginning! ”

If you talk nonsense with your eyes closed, ten Zheng Fuyi are not Wu Ruotang's opponents, after several inquiries, Zheng Fuyi has a big headache, this Wu Xiaotang is like a loach, and he can't start at all.

"I heard that Lord Wu has always had a discordant relationship with Lord Ye, and he has expressed his desire to replace him many times, but is there such a thing?" Zheng Fuyi threw a bombshell.
