Chapter 162 ; Investigate homicides.
"In the rivers and lakes, there are many people who are powerful with swords, but there are not many who can cut out ten swords in an instant."
"The Son of Heaven killers in the Qin State have this ability, but each of them is a sharp weapon to kill, and the leader of the net will not use them stupidly to rob money, because it is too wasteful, and it is a knife to kill Ji Yan."
"So the killer of the snare can be ruled out."
"There is another point, that is, the person who made the attack should have a grudge against Qiao's house."
"A master of killing people and plundering money, if it was just to grab money, it would be impossible for him to kill everyone in his entire abdomen, not even chickens and dogs, so the murderer must have a grudge with Qiao's mansion."
"And Qiaofu is a big family in Chu State, and Qiao Gong, the lord of Qiaofu, is the father-in-law of Xipinghou, he has almost never been out of Chu State, and the possibility that he was killed by swordsmen from other countries can be ruled out immediately."
"What if it's a homicide? I have heard that this Qiao Gong has cooperated with the Qianlong Hall of Yan Kingdom, but half a year ago, Qiao Gong wanted to put a thing in the Qianlong Hall for auction, but in the end he returned, you say, is it possible that he offended the Qianlong Hall and was retaliated against because of this? . The man in the black suit spoke.
"Ordinary people in Qianlong Hall don't know, but I know very well that the force behind him is the peasant family, and the peasant family power is all over the Seven Kingdoms, even if it is my Chu State, there is also his peasant rudder, if it is really them to take revenge on Qiao Gong, it is not impossible." The middle-aged man with a scar on his face spoke up.
When the gray-robed young man heard this, he immediately sneered. "Qianlong Tang is indeed a good farmer's power, but it is impossible for Qianlong Hall to kill Qiao Gong, it's not that they don't have that ability, but they don't bother to kill him."
"What kind of power is his peasant family, an old man of Jia Shang, even if his son-in-law is a marquis of Chu State? If his peasant family really killed Qiao Gong, they couldn't afford to carry this ridicule. ”
"A small Jia Shang, a first-class force in the world to kill, do you think it's possible?"
Hearing Zhou Gongming's words, everyone nodded unconsciously.
In ancient times, the most despised people were those Jia merchants and others, that is, businessmen, no matter how rich you are, in the eyes of many people, you are just a person full of copper smell, and you will not be looked down upon.
If the Duke of Qiao in their mouths was not because there were some marquises' sons-in-law, the county order would not care about this matter at all.
It can be seen that the status of businessmen is low.
And this time, the bounty was not issued by the county order, but by the son-in-law of the Duke of Qiao, Pingxi.
After hearing these words, Xu Fan just shook his head and smiled, and prepared to leave.
But by coincidence, Xu Fan shook his head and smiled, which happened to be seen by Zhou Gongming.
Regarding his analysis just now, Zhou Gongming felt that there was nothing wrong, but Xu Fan's shaking of his head, although he didn't say anything, the negative meaning was already very obvious.
"This brother, please wait, you just shook your head, but do you think I said something wrong? I don't know if Brother Tai can tell me something, I'm wrong. Xu Fan was suddenly stopped, and he was also stunned.
He didn't expect that he just shook his head casually, and he was actually seen by the other party.
"Not really." Xu Fan didn't plan to talk nonsense with them.
Because he's already found some anomalies.
"Oh, why did that brother shake his head." Zhou Gongming was obviously dissatisfied with Xu Fan's answer.
In his tone, there was already a little more anger, but it was normal to think about it, he had analyzed something for a long time, and he was denied by others, and everyone would be angry.
"I just shook my head because I remembered something funny, okay, I still have something to do, everyone, please."
After speaking, Xu Fan planned to leave.
But Zhou Gongming lost face, obviously didn't want to let Xu Fan leave like this.
Therefore, he directly dodged and blocked in front of Xu Fan, looking at his movements, his martial arts were not bad.
Of course, it is not strong, it is estimated that it is just a congenital human realm, with such strength, Xu Fan can pinch him to death with one finger.
"If Brother Tai doesn't explain the matter, I think you won't be able to leave today."
And the other four, although they didn't say anything, their actions were the same as Zhou Gongming's, after all, they were a group of people, so they were naturally unanimous with the outside world, not to mention, Zhou Gongming's analysis just now, they also felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
Seeing Zhou Gongming's serious appearance, Xu Fan knew that if he didn't explain it today, they might not really let him go.
Of course, if Xu Fan wanted to leave, they couldn't stop him at all.
But Xu Fan didn't want to make too much noise, after all, it was too eye-catching.
Xu Fan's brows furrowed, but in the end he didn't make a move.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Xu Fan spoke up; "Since you want to explain, then I'll give you an explanation."
"Follow me." Xu Fan glanced at the five of them, and then walked towards the lobby by himself.
The five of them looked at each other and followed, especially Zhou Gongming, who wanted to see if Xu Fan could name a flower.
"Since you said that the murderer is a master with a sword, have you noticed here?" Following Xu Fan's direction, everyone saw the eaves in the center of the lobby, where there were three needles that had been completely blackened, and they hadn't noticed them before because of the sky.
It is estimated that not only them, but even the people before them, it is estimated that none of them noticed.
After all, that seat was too secretive, and the silver needle had turned black throughout, making it even harder to see clearly.
Two-thirds of the entire silver needle was in the wood, and if it weren't for Xu Fan's sharp eyes, it is estimated that he would not have noticed.
And Zhou Gongming and them are even more unlikely to notice.
"As you said, the other party is a master with a sword, but in my opinion, there is more than one murderer."
"Also, come back here." Xu Fan pointed to a stone lion in the lobby again, the stone lion is not big, less than half a meter, the stone lion should have quite charm, but at this moment, because of the coagulated blood, he can't see his original appearance.
It could only be seen from the position of his feet that it should have been a snow-white stone lion, or rather, a jade lion.
"Stone lions are all used to watch the gate guard, but you've seen anyone put this thing in the house, so there should be something wrong with this thing." Xu Fan said slowly.
When the five of them heard this, they were stunned, especially Zhou Gongming, after they came in, they only cared about looking at the corpses and watching the messy battle scenes, but they forgot about other important things.
But this is also normal, the corpses in the main hall are the most, and they are already rotting and stinky at this moment, if it weren't for Xu Fan's words, they probably wouldn't have come in at all.
The old man among the five people, after hearing Xu Fan's words, didn't feel disgusted, and walked forward directly, put his hands on the stone lion, and didn't care about the disgust of the blood stains on it.
After groping on it, behind the stone lion, the old man seemed to have touched something.
There was only a click, followed by the sound of gears turning.
There are secret rooms.
Everyone was shocked.
Then, the wall of the main hall in front of them, like a door that could be pulled horizontally, was directly removed.
