Xintianyou brought a chair and put it under his feet.

The row of cabinets on the top floor was stuffed with old files from before the first year of the Apocalypse. Expired documents from the government should not be discarded casually, but should be kept for reference. But it's useless on weekdays, so I have to pile it up and put it on the shelf.

The dust is thick, and it is estimated that no one has taken care of it for more than ten years.

Only on the first grid on the left, there is a brick-thick dossier alone, which is the Xinji Racecourse Bloody Case.

Although it is thick and has many pages, it has many fewer items than the previous file, such as testimonies, lawsuits, judgments, etc. The description and analysis of the case is also quite simple, in fact, it is a fake inspection report.

After only reading a few pages, Xintianyou understood why Dengfeng County wanted to block the news and prevent the arresters of Qiyun County from accessing the case file.

Because this is not a crime committed by a layman, but an immortal master doing the right thing for heaven. And there is a case within a case, which is not trivial.

A total of thirty-eight men, all of them were pierced by flying swords, and none of them lived!

These people are obviously hidden giant bandits, all of them are powerful and carry blades.

The horse farm is a den of bandits selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and a huge amount of gold and silver have been found in it. Some of the jewels happened to be the stolen goods of the wealthy businessman's murder case a few years ago, and the evidence was ironclad.

Particularly horrific was the discovery of bones in a cellar.

On the top layer of bones were more than two dozen fresh corpses. According to the inquest, the time of death was not more than a day.

Xintianyou compared them one by one, and knew that it was the victim in the valley of the sheep's intestines.

There are a total of three masked men, a maid, a mother-in-law, a coachman, four warriors, and there are also those who drive big cars, visit relatives, and do small business...... Tight-fitting.

In other words, the five masked killers that the Courier saw back then, as well as a large group of accomplices and transports. After the murder, the scene was quickly cleaned up, and the body was transferred unnoticed.

Obviously, this was a premeditated interception and pursuit, with a tight division of labor.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. An immortal master followed them, and their end came......

Unexpectedly, the corpses of Xia Xing and his wife and the baby were not among them.

What's going on here?

The immortal master has vast magical powers, and he is a person outside the law, and any case involved must be elevated to a state secret, and all participants have received severe gag orders.

In this regard, the classic history has written a few words.

"Three hundred miles to report to the Criminal Department urgently, and the secret investigation department will arrive the next day."

A year later, the Hanlin Academy compiled the investigation report on the mysterious disappearance of Xia Xing's family and arrived in Dengfeng County. The canonical history also believes that the two cases are related, and the Xinji Racecourse has been dug into the ground, but no new discoveries have been made.

After another few months, the catchers of Qiyun County heard the news and rushed to ask for access to the file, but of course it was impossible to get their wish.

However, the history learned the details of the disappearance case from their mouths, knew what was going on, and left their own speculation on the last page of the dossier.

Xia Xing and his wife and a pair of twins may have been rescued by a passing immortal master and went into the mountains to practice.

As soon as you enter the cultivation gate, you are no longer a person in the world, of course, you must stay away from the seven emotions and six desires. That's why I didn't say goodbye to my grandparents and grandmothers, and I didn't go back to the court......

The tragedy of Sheep Gut Valley and Xinji Racecourse has been revealed?

Xintianyou shook his head.

The so-called "immortal master" is very likely to be the "scribe" in Sun Xuan's mouth. But when my father saw Xia Xing and his wife killed, why did the corpse disappear?

The Criminal Department is silent about this, and it can only remain silent, can it still track down the immortal master? But the secret investigation department, a secret agency similar to Jinyiwei, arrived the next day with a very positive attitude.

It's kind of interesting and intriguing.

Xintianyou turned the last page and was about to close the file, but his pupils shrank.

There are faint marks on the inside pages of the back cover.

He angled it so that the moonlight shone as much as possible on the page, and he came close to his eyes.

A small sword more than half an inch long and shaped like a willow leaf emerged. The sword was carved with intricate runes, as if it was about to break through the paper and fly out.

The graphics are drawn with alum water, and when they dry, they disappear naturally, but the fine crystals remain in the fiber crevices of the paper.

Ordinary people can't see it at all, and they have to be soaked before they are re-presented.

It shows that many years ago, someone must have looked through the file. Through the estimation of the wounds of the bandits in Xinji Racecourse, the appearance of the murder weapon was drawn. But he didn't want others to know, so he used an invisibility potion.

Invisibility potions have always been shameful, and most people don't understand them at all, and they are only used to pass secret messages or play tricks. For example, some rogue villains deliberately write IOUs in ink made of cuttlefish milk. After a long time, when the protein in the cuttlefish juice is broken down, the handwriting disappears without a trace.

Who drew the picture?

On the fly, or on purpose?

It is impossible for them to be fake, they are of low rank and low ability. He is only responsible for providing the early investigation report, and he can't get access to the later files, and he can't draw runes.

Judging from the skillful and smooth movement of the pen, this person is no stranger to flying swords, and it is not the first time he has used invisibility potions. The tall spells and the inferior methods are actually perfectly combined.

Hehe, in addition to the scribes, another terrible master has emerged!

However, he carried the most ordinary medicinal alum with him, was he going to write secret letters and engage in conspiracies anytime and anywhere?

Xin Tianyou looked at the flying sword again and again, and carved the figure into his mind. Turning back to the last page, I stretched out my finger and crossed out my personal guess in the writing of the canonical history.

These two strokes mess up the texture of the fibers, which can be seen by a person with excellent eyesight by pointing the paper sideways to the light source.

Close the file and swing it back into place.

He had a hunch that someone would come to check it out in the future. reminded the other party that the speculation of the canonical history was pure nonsense, and Xia Xing and his wife had died early.

……

The next day was early, the horses drank water, and everyone continued to set off.

At yesterday's pace, we can reach Baisha City at noon.

But Xintianyou began to walk slowly, and took the initiative to ask Ma Kong about the customs and history.

The atmosphere of the team immediately came alive, sweeping away the dullness of yesterday.

The fields are misty and there is a breeze from time to time.

A mile away a large sedan chair appeared and turned onto the road to the right.

Xintianyou asked:

"Uncle Ma, this seems to be to greet relatives. Why is it deserted, and there are no drummers and helpers? Just a groom official wearing a big red flower walked ahead, and two palanquin men followed. ”

Ma Kong smiled:

"When the wife enters the door, she must be carried in a sedan chair. Poor people can't afford to put on a show, but this kind of once-in-a-lifetime event should also be paid attention to tightening their belts. The sedan chair must be hired, and the bride must not be allowed to ride a donkey, and the rest can be saved. When I go back, it's called lively, and a lot of my mother's family will send my relatives. ”

Ma Cuihua looked at the red sedan chair enviously and interjected: "I don't see it poor, the groom is riding a horse." ”

Dong Shumin said: "The horse must have been borrowed as well." ”

Xintianyou said: "It's not a horse, it's a mule." ”

Dong Shumin shouted: "Why can't I see it? ”

After a while, she smiled and said, "It's really a mule, it looks like a horse." ”

Can a mule not be like a horse?

Xiaoxiang and Xiaolan were secretly having fun, and Miss Dong turned around and scares them with her teeth and claws, not allowed to laugh!

Xin Tianyou's expression gradually became serious, and he said:

"It's weird, it's not like an empty sedan chair."
