Gu Qing came to sit down in front of him and said with a smile: "Lord Zhou is so leisurely, this is a good thing." ”

"Oh, why is it a good thing?" Zhou Xuan looked up at him.

Gu Qing shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "Doesn't this happen to prove that the world is peaceful and the prosperous world is peaceful?"

Zhou Xuan smiled and stretched out his finger to the house: "Reasonable, Boss Shi is waiting for you, by the way, why didn't you say that you had an old relationship with Lord Liu before?"

"Huh?" Gu Qingleng paused for a moment, and immediately reacted, the 'Lord Liu' in Zhou Xuan's mouth should be the big guy who dealt with the Taohuazhai matter before.

What's going on?

Judging from Zhou Xuan's reaction, this Lord Liu really belongs to a high position, but this kind of character, how can he remember him as a nobody? Could it be something?

Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Xuan coughed lightly: "Don't guess, go in by yourself." I think it's a good thing, maybe you can take this opportunity to soar. ”

"You have to be able to do it. Gu Qing pursed his lips, drank the wine in his cup a little helplessly, got up and walked into the main hall.

Boss Shi heard the voice and looked up: "You're back?"

"Ladies and gentlemen. ”

Gu Qing raised his eyes and swept around, and his heart was inexplicably a little heavier, because he found that Master Liu was actually sitting in the first place, and the position next to him was Boss Shi's boss.

Judging from the rank of the two people's official uniforms, Lord Liu is inferior to the latter, so since this Lord Liu can sit in the first place, he must have other supports, such as background.

"Sit. The first elegant man with a crown like jade nodded slightly.

Receiving the look from this person, Boss Shi cleared his throat and said lightly: "Gu Qing, it's just the right time for you to come back." Song Tiancheng, you should be familiar with it, right?"

"Familiar, he is my benefactor. Gu Qing muttered in his heart, but his face was as calm as water.

Boss Shi glanced at him and said in a shocking voice: "He's dead." ”

"What?" Gu Qing's eyes twitched slightly, and his voice fluctuated slightly.

Song Tiancheng's strength, he didn't know the details before, but after he gradually understood the steps in his cultivation, he had a rough estimate.

When Song Tiancheng was in the prime of life, he should have been around the Yunsha Realm, but later he was injured, and even hurt the root, so his strength gradually fell.

The qi and blood were not abundant enough, and the strength of his body was declining day by day, in order to survive, Song Tiancheng had to dissipate the evil qi in his body, and since then he has fallen into the viscera realm.

But even so, Song Tiancheng is not something that any cat or dog can deal with, how could he die?

Gu Qing raised his head suddenly, and his eyes flashed with a different color: "His death is not an accident, otherwise the adults don't need to call me here." It's not a vendetta, otherwise the Imperial Dragon Pavilion can directly arrest people.

The Evil King Sect had already bowed its head, and the remaining remnants of the sin had not yet had time to run, how could they dare to come to the capital to do evil? So this matter ...... There is something strange. ”

Boss Shi handed over a copy of the case: "Yes, it's indeed a bit strange, you can take a look first." ”

Unfolded, the small characters are densely packed, and the amount of information contained is very huge. Gu Qing took a closer look, then closed his eyes and combed it, his eyebrows unconsciously twisted.

The content is very simple, Song Tiancheng's efforts have been rewarded, and he followed Lord Liu and the Chen family all the way to the capital and settled here.

However, it is not as good as the Chen family's heritage, and in this prosperous place in the capital, there are many martial arts halls, if you open a martial arts hall again, you have to start from scratch, and the risk is greater, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, Song Tiancheng was invited to join the Huanglong Pavilion, one is for his livelihood, the other is to be idle, and the third is to ...... Accumulate meritorious deeds and exchange them for evil seeds for Song Ziyi.

The evil qi seed is groped out by the martial artist, and it is a relatively safe way to break through to the evil realm, which is much safer than directly absorbing the evil qi.

However, correspondingly, the price of this thing is not affordable for ordinary people, especially since many times the evil seeds are in a state of price and no market.

If you want to get it, you either have to rely on luck, join a sect, or follow the path of the imperial court. Song Tian became a daughter, and finally chose the last path.

According to the original plan, with Song Tiancheng's current position, the annual meritorious service should be enough to save for more than ten years, and there is no need to take any risks.

However, in order to improve the speed of obtaining meritorious deeds, occasionally Song Tiancheng will also take on some small tasks, although the merits are not much, but they can accumulate a lot.

This time, no one thought that a small incident would kill Song Tiancheng.

"I called you here for three reasons. ”

Master Liu said lightly: "In the previous incident, I saw that you were a material that could be made and intended to be cultivated, who would have thought that you were ambitious in all directions, so I didn't force it."

But no one can say anything about fate, in the end, you still entered the Huanglong Pavilion of our court, and you can be regarded as your own person, and you helped a lot in that matter before, so this opportunity is for you.

The second is that Song Tiancheng's daughter Song Ziyi, let me give this thing to you, she said that when you see this thing, you should be able to understand what she means.

Third, the evaluation of you has not been completely decided, and the old man simply asked them to postpone it for a while.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you can't do it well, you will have the credit of the past, and the most unfortunate will offset it, and there will be no punishment, no matter from which point of view, this matter is a rare opportunity for you.

However, this time, the Imperial Dragon Pavilion has no energy to support you, and there are more important things in the Holy Spirit, so if you take over this burden, you can only rely on yourself. ”

Gu Qing took the statue, his fingertips rubbing the somewhat rough surface, silently.

What Lord Liu said is indeed good, at least for now, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Gu Qing, after all, he is still young, and if he fails, even if he is planted in a pit, he still has the capital to rise again.

But......

This matter is indeed very mysterious, and even a little confusing.

After thinking for a while, Gu Qing came back to his senses, pressed his fingertips on the case, and said in a deep voice: "Since I am fortunate to be appreciated by adults, I will not hesitate to make up my mind." ”

Anyway, it's an opportunity, isn't it?

Again, it's a big deal to run away, but speaking of this, Gu Qing began to think about how to raise enough bonds to draw scrolls as soon as possible.

As for the one with the privilege of the heart, it can be ignored. If you have 1,000 bonds, you still need to break the three-month limit to randomize it?

Pit than penguins.

"That's very good. Lord Liu stroked his palm and chuckled, and then said, "Although the Imperial Dragon Pavilion can't help you, the Supervision Department has sent someone to assist you. ”

Gu Qing's eyes were surprised: "Help?

At this time, Huo Ran, a man who was sitting at the end and had not spoken from beginning to end, stood up and said to him with a smile: "Under Murong Qing, I was ordered to come to help this time, and I hope that the adults will take care of it." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. ”

Gu Qing looked at him, a trace of different color crossed his eyes, and his mouth was greeting as usual haha. muttered in my heart, it seems that this matter involves officialdom.

——

Half a day.

Gu Qing left here, found the house assigned to him for temporary residence according to the map, rubbed his swollen head, and poured himself a cup of herbal tea to calm down.

This matter is very complicated, and the information provided by the case alone is not enough for Gu Qing to understand the inside and outside of this matter, he needs to go to the scene and get in touch with those guys.

But then again, that Murong Qing is quite interesting. It stands to reason that he shouldn't have been there, and he shouldn't have gotten involved in this matter under the guise of helping.

Because, he is an official.

Imperial Court Officer, Supervision Division, Six Grades.

The most important thing is that Murong Qing is an ordinary person, and he may practice two-handed fist and foot kung fu, but any martial artist, even if he is just getting started, is enough to beat him ten.

Gu Qing muttered, "Whose person are you, is it really helping, or surveillance, or is it the people behind you who want to get some benefit from this?"

No matter what, the other party can still come in handy in the end.

After roughly combing it through, Gu Qingcao ate and quickly rushed to the watchtower.

"Adult ......"

"Just call me Gu Qing. ”

Murong Qing was a little uncomfortable, but he was still kind and asked softly: "Gu ...... Gu Qing, are you here to check the sand table?"

"That's right. Gu Qing nodded and looked at the huge table in front of him: "Where is the sand table?"

"Sand table. Murong Qing immediately looked at the few people next to him.

The subordinate nodded hurriedly, ran to the side and lifted out a few heavy woodcarvings, placed them on the table and spliced them together.

Murong Qing followed Gu Qing and explained step by step: "The capital is the hinterland of the imperial court, and there are many people coming and going, and most of them are merchants and pawns, so it is extremely difficult to investigate. ”

"Come with me. ”

Gu Qing secretly kept the layout in mind, reviewed it several times, and turned around and left after getting acquainted with it: "Summoned, I want to see the corpse." ”

Murong Qing made a gesture and asked these people to put away the sand table and keep up with Gu Qing's pace: "The corpse has been sealed with a secret medicine, and it can be viewed at any time, but it can't be moved." ”

Gu Qing said lightly: "Call the post-mortem at that time and explain it on the side." ”

The two quickly walked down the watchtower and came to the backyard of the palace, and when they came, there were already several people waiting here for a long time.

"Song Tiancheng?" Gu Qing casually uncovered the white cloth and frowned at the corpse: "You really died like this, isn't it an exaggeration in the case information?"

With a bitter face, he explained from the side: "My lord, almost all the corpses here are dying in this way. ”

Then he explained the identities and other information of these people one by one.

"Lift. Gu Qing looked at more than a dozen corpses that had been lifted from the white cloth: "Are there wounds, poisoning, and other signs?"

He shook his head: "No, they all seem to have died in their sleep." ”

Gu Qing looked at Murong Qing: "Weird?"

Murong Qing nodded: "Most likely, it is very similar to the methods of evil path martial artists." However, these evil martial artists generally avoid the imperial court, so how dare they dare to make trouble in the capital?"

"Quite simply, their master is here. ”

Gu Qing replied casually, and took a deep look at Song Tiancheng's corpse, the other party's pale face and weird smile inexplicably made his heart throb slightly.
