Chapter 114: The Four Masters
Looking around, Sobra commanded again,
"You two and your brothers will look around again to see if there are any thieves who have escaped the net, and in about time we will carry the dead corpses to the crypt, and then we will assemble in the so-called village."
"Huh!"
The two generals, Lang Yongkuan and Xiang Yongzhong, were ordered to leave.
With a long exhale towards the sky, Sobra turned his head and smiled at Zong Jiyuan,
"Don't look at it as my business to order these generals, but it's you who gave me the order, Ji Yuan, it's up to you to decide what we should do next."
"Aren't you already assigned?"
Zong Jiyuan looked at his smiling face, helpless and funny, and thought for a while,
"Since we are gathering in the village, we might as well go back the way we came, after all, the fourth thief, Yu Chunjue, has not been found yet, I want to go in and check again."
"Oh......"
When Sobra heard this, he nodded in realization, and said,
"I heard that the fourth child Yu Chunjue has no skills, but he lives in this thief's den, but since you said it, then let's go search again."
As they spoke, the group returned to the stone chamber by the same path and along the passageway.
There were many officers and soldiers guarding it, and when Sobra saw it, he commanded,
"Search me everywhere, more thoroughly, and search these stone chambers one by one."
"That's right,"
Zong Jiyuan added next to him,
"Go up a stone staircase over there, there is another floor above, and there are also a few stone chambers, don't forget."
"Got it!"
The officers and men were ordered to search everywhere, and they ran around in groups or groups. Sobra, Zong Jiyuan, and Wang Yu stood in the middle of the hall, watching them run around, and they also found it very interesting.
After less than half an hour, a small colonel ran down from above and came directly to Sobra and said,
"Major General, we found a dead man in a hidden compartment in a stone room above, and a thief who was caught said, "That person is their four village masters, Yu Chunjue!"
"Really?"
Zong Jiyuan listened and couldn't help asking,
"Where? Take us to see it! โ
"Huh!"
Probably these officers and soldiers also saw how much their major general attached great importance to this young man from Liaodong County, so they did not hesitate after listening to her words, and immediately agreed,
"Please come with me!"
Several men and the guards behind them followed the colonel up the stone staircase, turned the huge rock, and came to a stone chamber on the top floor.
"Major General, that person is inside."
As he spoke, the Colonel pushed open the door of the stone chamber and walked in.
The three of Sobra followed him to the stone room, which was still very spacious, and the furnishings would be a bedroom, and the other colonels who were guarding here saw the major general and saluted, and one of them said,
"Major General, when we searched here just now, we found a small piece of cloth exposed in the corner of the wall, and pushed it hard, it turned out that there was still a hidden pavilion here, and that Yu Chunjue died inside."
"Oh, yes."
In response, the three of them walked to the secret room of the secret chamber that had been opened.
Zong Jiyuan widened his eyes and looked inside, and saw that there was a square foot here, and there was a bed on the inside, and the person called "Yu Chunjue", the upper body was lying on the side of the bed, and the lower body was sitting on the ground, holding a short knife in his right hand, and a long wound on his neck was very eye-catching, and the blood stains that flowed out had stained the sheets red.
Stepping in front of this person, Zong Jiyuan took a closer look, and saw that he was about twenty-four or five years old, although his face was a little distorted, he could also see that his appearance was very upright, and his body was also very well-proportioned, and his physical characteristics were basically consistent with the information about Yu Chunjue that he had mastered.
Seeing this scene, Sobra couldn't help but sneer and said,
"It's true that this guy has no ability, and it's really not fake at all, and when he is cornered, he will lock himself up here and commit suicide."
"Suicide ......"
Zong Jiyuan repeated these two words gently, checked the wound again, held his wrist and looked at it, and turned back and said,
"Major General, please bring the thief who identified him here."
"Oh, good ......"
Sobra was a little confused, but she still asked the little school outside to do what she said.
Wang Yu was also very strange when he saw it, and asked,
"What's wrong, Ji Yuan, what's wrong?"
"Huh?"
Zong Jiyuan was stunned for a moment, glanced back at him, and smiled,
"No, it's just our habit of handling cases, and we must verify the identity of the deceased, even for criminals."
"Oh, I see......"
Wang Yu nodded and stepped back.
When the thief was brought over, he was already frightened and said in a loud voice,
"Everyone, everyone, the villain hasn't done anything bad, but it's a mess here...... I really haven't done anything ......."
"Well, don't be afraid,"
Zong Jiyuan interrupted his plea for mercy,
"I didn't let you come to kill you, but I asked you something about it, and you have to answer it well."
"Yes, yes, the villain must be ......"
The thief said in a loud voice.
Zong Jiyuan looked at him, then pointed to Yu Chunjue's corpse, and asked,
"How can you be sure that this is Yu Chunjue?"
"This, this ......"
The thief trembled and replied,
"To be honest, the villain has never seen the fourth master up close, and he is often not in the mountains, but this dress is definitely his, and it is also the fourth master's favorite one, every time I see him, I wear it, and it looks like a ...... Oh, by the way, what's more, I also heard the big village master and the fourth master quarrel last night, which means that he must be here ......"
"Understood,"
Zong Jiyuan nodded,
"I'm done asking, you can take him down."
"SoใAnd then?"
Sobra asked with interest as she looked at her.
Zong Jiyuan looked at him like this, couldn't help but smile, and said,
"Wait, I still want to take a look in this stone chamber in Yu Chunjue to see if I can find anything else."
"Okay, you can take care of it, I'll wait for you outside."
Sobra nodded, turned and walked out.
Zong Jiyuan came to the outside and began to look around, Wang Yu looked very curious, and couldn't help asking,
"Ji Yuan, what the hell are you looking for?"
"I can't say either, I just want to see ......"
Soyoshi Yuan replied while thinking about something, and when he came to a box, he reached out and opened it, and when he saw that there were some clothes inside, he looked through it slightly, and his eyes suddenly fell on a coat, and he pulled it out and unfolded it, and finally found the sleeve of the dress that had been torn off.
Seeing that she could see the gods, Wang Yu asked again,
"What's wrong, did you find anything?"
"When Xiaoyingzi was killed, the sleeve he was holding in his hand should have been ripped off this dress......"
Zong Jiyuan said thoughtfully.
