Not good, go upstairs! Zhao Jue immediately led people upstairs, and when they pushed open the door, the room was already empty.

Those secret guards, all mysteriously disappeared.

Zhen Jue's face was instantly difficult to see.

Downstairs, Jiang Youxi glanced left and right, then walked out, pulled over an old lady who was watching the excitement, and asked, "This old man, can you ask, what happened here?" ”

The old lady glanced at Jiang Youxi, Jiang Youxi was good-looking, and his face was a ball of kindness, and he felt like he was talking. The old lady said, "Girl, you are a foreigner." ”

Jiang Youxi nodded.

The old lady continued, "I tell you, what a sin. The shop was fine yesterday, but today we couldn't wait for them to open, and we looked at it for too long, so we knocked on the door, and we saw this scene. ”

"This is really a sin, the boss is a good man, and now it's gone, alas." The old lady was still talking, and the more she talked, the more sorry she became.

Jiang Youxi was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a shout.

She glanced over and saw a group of servants coming menacingly. Behind them, there was also the local county magistrate.

The county magistrate immediately went in to check the scene, and Shunxiang asked him to conduct an autopsy.

"Let's go upstairs and have a look." The county master took people upstairs, and as soon as he stepped on the stairs, he collided with Zhao Jue and his party who were about to go downstairs.

County Master: "......"

"Who are you, so bold, you dare to see the county master without saluting!" The county master didn't say anything, but the other party's master shouted first, pointed at the nose of Zhao Jue and his party and scolded, "You are here at this time, I must have nothing to do with the murderer, come here, arrest them!" ”

"Yes!"

The officials shouted in unison, and were about to step forward to take the people.

Jiang Youxi hurriedly walked in and said, "This lord, you have misunderstood, we have just arrived, our companion lived here before, and today I came to look for it, but I found that the person had disappeared." ”

"Who are you?" The county magistrate glanced at Jiang Youxi very dissatisfiedly and asked.

Jiang Youxi said: "We are just passing passengers. ”

"Travelers?" The county master smiled and looked Jiang Youxi up and down for a while. This person is dressed ordinarily, but his temperament is difficult to hide, and his extravagance cannot be ignored.

He glanced at Zhao Jue and them a few more times, and his gaze finally fixed on Zhao Jue and Yue Yang.

Who are these three people?

"In that case, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here for a few more days, and then you can leave the country when we get to the bottom of the case."

Since you are a tourist, let's stay first.

Zhao Jue and Jiang Youxi glanced at each other, then nodded in agreement.

Stay is definitely going to stay, their people are mysteriously missing, they must have nothing to do with Bai Guicheng, they want to rescue those secret guards.

When the county master heard their words, he smiled with satisfaction and gave the master a look, and the master knew it in his heart, and waved his hand to let them take them away.

Jiang Youxi and the others were stunned, she hurriedly stopped and said, "Wait, what are you trying to do?!" ”

The master pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, and said: "Don't do anything, you are involved in this case, you are an important suspect in this case, from now on, you must be guarded by our people." ”

"What are we suspects, our people are also missing, where did the identity of the suspect come from!"

"Because this is our territory, of course it is our county lord who is in charge." The implication is that their county magistrate said they were suspects, and they were.

It doesn't matter what the facts are.

Jiang Youxi laughed angrily when he heard this.

I really don't know how this group of people became the parents of this family.

"You didn't even investigate the case, so you said we were suspects? It's ridiculous! "Since this is the case, Jiang Youxi and them are even more unlikely to go with them.

This is going to go, but I am afraid that they are not murderers, and they will all become murderers in the end.

She glanced at Zhao Jue and asked for his opinion with her eyes.

Zhao Jue nodded imperceptibly.

Jiang Youxi's fingers moved slightly, and a pill slid into her fingertips.

She was about to bend her fingers to pop the pill when a voice sounded that Jiang Youxi didn't think about it anyway.

"Master Zhu, wait, they are not bad people, I can testify, I can testify that they are not."

The county magistrate turned his head and looked at the visitor.

The face that was a little mean just now brought a little smile.

"The official said who came, it turned out to be Yu Xiucai, you don't study hard at home and collect medicine, why are you here to make a fuss? You better hurry up, for the sake of you being a showman, I won't worry about you. ”

Master Zhu waved his hand a little impatiently, driving him away as if he was chasing a fly.

As if he hadn't heard, Yu Qing walked quickly to Lord Zhu and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Lord Zhu, look." Yu Qing took out a small package from the back basket and handed it to Master Zhu mysteriously, "Take a look." This is what I got by accident yesterday when I went to the mountains to collect medicine. At that time, I was thinking, such a good thing, then it must be given to us Lord Zhu, after all, we Lord Zhu have worked hard for the country and the people, and this thing is just right for you to replenish your body. ”

Master Zhu took the package suspiciously, opened it and looked at it, happy.

Xuan was about to pack the package, turned around and handed it to the master to put away.

"So these guys are your friends." After receiving the things, Lord Zhu immediately changed his face, and his smile was much more real than before, "Since you say that they are innocent, then I still believe you." Let them go. ”

"Thank you, Lord Zhu." Yu Qing smiled, turned around and beckoned Jiang Youxi and them, "Let's go." ”

Jiang Youxi put away the pills, turned around and followed Yu Qing out.

They didn't leave far, so they found a tea shop and sat down to drink tea, and watched from a distance as Lord Zhu took the servants and carried out the corpse in the inn.

There were a lot of corpses, and in addition to the people in the inn, there were several corpses of the guests.

Until the corpses were all carried out, Jiang Youxi and the others didn't see their own people.

"Yu Qing, what did you give to that Lord Zhu before?" Jiang Youxi asked.

It can be seen that it is definitely not a cheap thing.

Yu Qing helped them a lot, so Jiang Youxi didn't want to owe this favor.

Yu Qing smiled and waved his hand, and said, "It's not a valuable thing, it's just an old ginseng that I inadvertently picked when I was collecting medicine on the mountain, and it's not worth a few medicines." ”

Jiang Xixi didn't believe this.

That Lord Zhu knew at a glance that it was not a good thing, how could it be bad if it could enter his eyes?

Jiang Youxi touched it on her body, she followed Zhao Jue out, she had never had the habit of bringing money, even if she brought it, she only brought some scattered silver taels, it was definitely not worth the old ginseng.

She glanced at Zhao Jue and motioned for him to give him some money.

Zhao Jue nodded clearly, took out a silver ticket, and handed it to Yu Qing.

Yu Qing glanced at it, was startled, and hurriedly postponed. Zhao Jue said it for a while before he was willing to accept it.

Looking at Yu Qing's surprised and surprised expression, Jiang Youxi smiled silently in his heart.

She still remembers what Zhao Jue said before.

Seeing Yu Qing send the old ginseng out so happily before, she didn't care about the money at all, and she was suspicious for a while, but seeing that Yu Qing didn't seem to have seen the world now, the doubt in her heart disappeared slightly.

"Yu Qing, do you know what happened?" Jiang Youxi asked.

Yu Qing frowned, shook his head and said, "To be honest, I don't know. I visited the guards at the inn yesterday at noon, and they were all fine at that time. As soon as I came today, I saw you arguing with Master Zhu. Let me tell you, that Lord Zhu is greedy for money, and he must have seen that you have a different temperament before, so I want to take this opportunity to trick you into some money. ”

Jiang Youxi smiled, it's not like they've never seen this kind of official.

Now what she is most worried about is still those secret guards whose life and death are uncertain.

I don't know how they are now.

It didn't take long for the guards who had been sent out before to come back, with the news they had just inquired about.

As Yu Qing said, the inn was fine yesterday afternoon.

But in this town, the inn closes early.

But the door was closed when the light was in hand.

After that, no one had ever seen anyone come out of the inn, or they hadn't come out either, so they didn't know anything about the situation outside.

It wasn't until this morning that someone saw that they hadn't opened the door, so they came up and knocked on the door.

As a result, before the door could be opened, I smelled a smell of blood in the air.

At that time, there was someone killing chickens and geese in their inn, but when I opened the door, I was almost scared to death. I saw the runner lying on the ground covered in blood, and the blood on his body flowed all over the ground.

By the time they saw it, the blood had already curdled.

The man screamed in fright, alarming all the neighborhoods around him, and someone saw this scene and immediately went to inform Lord Zhu.

And then that's what they saw when they came.

"Did anyone hear last night's movements?" Jiang Youxi asked.

The guard shook his head and said, "No." ”

"None of the people who heard it?"

The guard shook his head.

"It's strange," Jiang Youxi touched his chin and thought deeply, "I remember that there are many people around that inn, how can it be that no one hears it?" ”

Zhao Jue said: "This situation actually exists. ”

"How?"

Zhao Jue continued: "For example, if the other party is a master and can kill with one hit, before the person who is killed has not reacted, he has already killed the other party, and naturally no one can hear the sound. ”

"But aren't there any guests in the inn? No matter how good that person is, it is impossible for him to appear on the first and second floors at the same time and kill so many people at the same time. ”

"That's the second possibility I'm going to talk about. There may be a lot of people on the other side, and at the same time, no one will be able to hear them. ”

Yue Yang also nodded in agreement.

Jiang Youxi thought for a while, and his eyes lit up suddenly.
