Chapter 2: The Way of the Devil

Sun Xuan is sixty-five years old, and he was originally a martial artist at the fifth level of Qi Gathering, but his old age and decay fell to the fourth layer. But he is not deaf, his eyes are not dazzled, and a few strong men can't get close. Last year, Queen Jianming also rewarded two medium-grade spirit stones, which made his body more and more strong.

Deliberately staggering is to take the opportunity to brush up on ideas.

The old man is really confused.

At the beginning, the strange middle-aged scribe ordered him not to leave Qiyun City from now on, and waited for a little immortal master to come to inquire about the bloody case of the Sheep Intestine Valley more than ten years later.

Sure enough, sixteen years later, a powerful boy came.

Unexpectedly, a year later, another one came. The scribes did not make it clear whether there was only one or not.

When he was just taking the silver ingot, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Twins!

Xia Xing got twins at the beginning!

Suppose they were rescued by different immortal masters and didn't know each other's existence. One went down the mountain to find his roots, starting with the investigation of the bloody case. The other one only descended the mountain every other year, and the way it was taken would not be too far......

Sun Xuan has served as a servant for more than 30 years, and has solved many strange cases, and the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that this is the case.

But this matter is very related, and it can't be explained before the details of the other party are figured out. And the noble identity of the son, how can he let a "slut" find out the details?

After careful consideration, I decided to tell those public information, saving the other party from asking one by one.

Five minutes later, Qi Tian saw the old man staggering back, and there seemed to be a heavy thing hidden in his sleeve pocket. With a slight smile, he stepped forward.

Sun Xuan stopped, coughed twice, and said:

"When the bloodshed happened, no one actually knew that the torrential rain had washed away the traces. Since the second half of the year, the government has been reported missing one after another. The most terrifying thing is that the old lady Xia of Qingshui Township reported to the official with her in-laws.

"Old lady Xia relied on a few acres of thin fields to support her son Xia Xing's study in Jinshi. He did not forget his roots, married a woman who grew up in the same village, and settled in the royal city. In the first three years of the Spring Festival, he took his wife back to his hometown to visit his parents, but he did not return in the fourth year of the Apocalypse.

In the fifth year, the in-laws missed their son and asked someone to go to the royal city to inquire. I learned that on the first day of April of the first year, Xia Xing got a pair of twins, so he took leave and returned home, but he didn't know that there was no news when he left. He is a Zhengqipin official, and the case is not trivial.

"The county government thoroughly investigated and searched, but to no avail. It's as if that family has disappeared out of thin air...... In addition to Xia Xing, other disappearance cases are also concentrated in the beginning of the summer of the fourth year of the Apocalypse. From the royal city back to the county town, you must pass through the valley of the sheep's intestines. There are those who do small business, those who visit relatives, and those who catch big cars......

A year later, I heard that there was a shocking bloody case in Xinji Racecourse in Dengfeng County at that time. Dozens of people died, and bones were dug up from the ground. When the news of the arrest in our county was obtained, the time happened to coincide with the missing person case, and hurried over.

"However, Dengfeng County is under the jurisdiction of Baisha Wangcheng, which is at the same level as Qiyun County, and the file needs to be reported to the Criminal Department. A bunch of guys came back in a hurry, and finally they didn't get it. Last year, the horse farm was renovated, and the local government found the bones of Xia Xing and his wife. After reporting to the imperial court, he was ceremoniously sent back to his hometown. ”

"As for the twin babies, the villain really doesn't know, and no one has heard of it."

Qi Tian pondered for a while and asked:

"What happened to the Xia family?"

Sun Xuandao:

"Mrs. Xia's two in-laws only have one seedling in Xia Xing, and after hearing the news, they were all discouraged and couldn't afford to get sick. He would rather die of illness than exchange his house for a decoction, saying that his son would one day come back with his daughter-in-law and grandson, and he could not let them find a home.

"After they passed away, the old house was entrusted to their in-laws. The in-laws also passed away a few years later, and handed over to Xia Xing's brother-in-law Wang Er. Wang Er was a good gambler and almost sold the Xia family's old house. But Xia Xing was Guo Xiangguo's protΓ©gΓ© back then, and he issued a large amount of bereavement last year. Wang Er has money, presumably he will not sell the old house. ”

Qi Tian asked:

"That's all?"

Sun Xuandao:

"That's all the villain can confirm. What is hearsay, it is not accurate. ”

Qi Tian laughed and said:

"I have a thousand ways to get my enemies to reveal their secrets. If it is applied to you, it will be done. If you don't want to talk about it, I have a way to make things fall into place...... There is something hidden in the sleeve, and there is a faint wisp of qi flowing. ”

The old man slowly took out the silver ingot and handed it over.

Qi Tian took the silver ingot and observed, and said with a smile:

"Good kung fu, strong King Kong finger...... Wrong. Silver is soft, malleable, and does not shatter when squeezed. How can the edge of the fingerprint not be deformed a little? Moyun Holy Hand ...... Not right either. The palm print is clearly printed, extremely strong, and the force is restrained in a subtle range......"

Sun Xuan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the stroking of his fingers, and the silver powder fell in a slump.

Seeing that his fingerprints were about to be polished by himself, Qi Tian apologized:

"I'm sorry, I'll restore it for you."

After speaking, I didn't see any action from him to cast a spell. The silver dust that had been sprinkled on the ground floated up, and silver ingots were attached.

The ingots had been in the shrine for a full year, and even if they were wiped every day, they were dimmed. After being made like this, it looks brand new, and the lines are clearer than before.

The old man's throat "gurgled", he couldn't speak, and he kept rubbing his eyes.

The young man's expression became more and more confused, and he continued to study.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That faint aura is a bit like a mana residue, but it is completely different. Something seemed to have ruined the structure of the silver, making it look like a cement ......"

Qi Tian closed his eyes and concentrated, and after a few breaths, he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze seemed to sweep across the void with lightning, and he said:

"Energy Residue...... Devil's Way! β€œ

Rumble......

The leaves and grass rose to the sky, and the large and small peaches "plopped" and fell.

Sun Xuan seemed to have his soul cut in half, shook twice, and fell. When I opened my eyes again, the young man was gone. Looking at the sun again, it didn't move much, and it seemed that everything just a dream was just a dream.

He got up and felt unwell.

However, all the peach trees in the garden have lost all their leaves and peaches, and it is extremely desolate to look at.

On the ground two meters away, there was a large white silver ingot, and the handprints on it were clearer than the carving. Next to it, there is a large yellow gold ingot, which also has a handprint.

……

After some rectification and reinforcement, the old house of the Xia family in Qingshui Township has no decay. But there was no one to live in, and the gate was locked all day long.

In the half-acre pond, the small lotus only showed the sharp peak. On the three-point vegetable field, two magnificent blue brick tombs were built.

A man in his thirties, wearing a long robe with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek, placed an offering in front of the tomb on the right, lit paper money and incense candles, and turned to another tomb and shouted:

"Old lady Xia, wife, don't be polite to the two of you. Let's go to my sister and brother-in-law to eat some, let's be lively together. ”

I saw that the paper money was stacked on top of each other, burning and burning, and it was about to go out. Hurriedly found a stick, squatted down to stir it up, and said:

"Sister, brother-in-law, you two rest assured. I saw my nephew, and I have a lot of ability. It's just very fierce, and it's not easy to talk. Whoever picks and searches, and gives me a hundred taels of silver, he will take it in five years. Fortunately, last year, the government said that the brother-in-law died in the line of duty, and a pension of 1,000 taels was repaid.

"I have to keep it for my nephew, but he hasn't seen anyone. I had no choice but to help him use it first, saving money and growing mold. Redeem the old house, renovate it, buy back the land that was sold, and there are not a few left in your hands. It would be nice if you two gave him a dream, saying that his uncle is the only relative in the world, and he will give him a thousand taels of gold Huabei......"

Before the words fell, Wang Er saw the yellow light flashing next to him, and immediately fell.

That's amazing, a lot of gold ingots.
