The two brothers of the Ren family died one after another, which inevitably caused an uproar in the martial arts, after all, both of them are influential figures in the rivers and lakes, and their deaths are easy to arouse the suspicion of too many people.

Wan Qiliang never thought about dying crucified, and when he was alive, his limbs were nailed with wooden nails, and the pain must have been too good to say. Sometimes I feel that I can't even take death into my own hands, isn't this a kind of sadness?

But no matter how you say it, people can't be resurrected after death, Wan Qiliang can't shake him up and ask him who killed him, so he can only start from the clues around him, and when everyone is aiming at Chu Ling, she may think of other people.

Sometimes a person wants another person to die, and there is no need for any reason at all, maybe it is a whim, maybe it is careless, but it is obvious that Ren Jie's death is definitely not the end that can be caused by the wrong hand, it should have been premeditated, and choosing to kill at this time is obviously to blame Chu Ling, because Ren Jie is now investigating Chu Ling and wants to seek revenge on him, it is also reasonable for Chu Ling to strike first, but if it is really Chu Ling's shot, he probably will not choose such a brain-consuming way.

Wan Qiliang didn't find anything suspicious from Ren Jie's corpse, and he couldn't see any traces left by someone inadvertently, but the variety of trees used in the cross was not owned by Zhuzhou, this is a unique tree in New Tang Dynasty, which can be seen everywhere in New Tang Dynasty, but it can't be seen in Zhuzhou at all. If the murderer deliberately took the trouble to transport this special tree from New Tang Dynasty, doesn't this make people suspicious? Do you want to turn the murderer into a Yuan Tang person? But Chu Ling is obviously from Qi Liang.

When the investigation of all parties found nothing, someone suddenly went to the yamen to report the case, saying that on the day Ren Jie was killed, he had seen a tall man in black enter his room, and he didn't know if he had come out.

The yamen in Zhuzhou was not subordinate to the imperial court like a locality, but a subordinate institution of the city lord's mansion, which had its own laws and regulations, such as killing people, but only in cases where there was a good reason not to pay for life, otherwise it would be a very natural thing to kill people to pay for life.

In fact, in Zhuzhou, the city lord is equivalent to the emperor of the Three Kingdoms, with great power, he can be completely other people's lives, and no one can question his decision, but before that, the selection and assessment of the city lord are extremely strict, no one knows what will be tested, and many people will be discouraged from the things of nine deaths and life, and if they do not pass the test in the end, they will stay in that door forever, whether as a corpse or a living person.

Power is something that is easy to fascinate people with, but the more beautiful it is, the more toxic it is, and the greater the price you will pay when you want to get it, some people may not be able to understand this truth in their lives, in their eyes, power represents everything, what kind of power you have, what kind of life you can have, to some extent, this is not wrong. When you are a beggar, others will not look at you when they bow their heads, but when you become the highest ruler, others have only the right to look up to you.

Reality is always cruel to tell us that we are small and humble, sometimes we really feel that even if there is an end to a road, we don't know where the end should be, and we have lost too much in the process of gradually understanding things, only what we think is unimportant.

Such a reporter appeared out of thin air, and his words sounded like a matter of fact, but in reality no one could judge the truth of his words. Tall men dressed in black are not uncommon, and such ambiguous physical features allow the yamen to arrest all those who meet the requirements? But if the informant's words are true, it means that someone once entered Ren Jie's room very blatantly, so it should be his acquaintance.

Acquaintances commit crimes, which feels good, but Ren Jie's acquaintances are not hundreds but dozens, and most of them are tall men, and it takes both manpower and time to investigate them one by one, but what can be done in addition to this method?

Wan Qiliang didn't know if her feelings were right, she felt that the yamen was not trying their best to investigate this case, but because it caused some sensation and they had to do it, otherwise in the eyes of outsiders, it seemed that they were tolerant enough to such a thing. She knew that Zhuzhou was a place that was calm on the surface, but in fact the dark tide was turbulent, and many heinous people came here to find a pure land and at the same time could not bear the tyranny in their hearts, after all, character and habits are not something that is formed in a day. It may be another human life, but for experienced thugs, this is not a problem.

The time she has been here is not too short, but Wan Qiliang has never seen the city lord show up, and she doesn't even know who he is, the information she can get is the people who participated in the election that year, but which one is still up to her to guess?

As the core of the hearts of Zhuzhou people, the city lord is an unshakable existence from any point of view, because with him, the hearts of the people of the city will be steady, so the person who takes the lead is very important. Those who are incapable will not survive the test of selecting the lord of the city, and everyone knows this.

Wan Qiliang is very curious about the selection of the city lord, listening to others said that it is the first person to occupy the rules set here, the specific content is only known to the previous city lords, and at the same time, only the previous city lords know the treasure left here by the first city lord, it is said that each city lord can only have the key to one of the treasure chests, it was the key that found them, and they also found the key. No one could know in advance what exactly they were getting, and it had to do with the curse imposed by the first lord of the city.

The curse matter, Wan Qiliang thought that it would only work for those who believed in its existence, after all, many times people's psychology accounted for a large part, but obviously the curse of the first city lord was much more effective. After the death of the previous city lords, the next city lord buried him with his own hands, and their cemeteries were all in one place, and no outsiders could come to disturb them. However, their cemetery is not in some hidden place, but on the mountain behind the city lord's mansion, some hunters hunting at the bottom of the mountain will not affect anything, but from the halfway up the mountain, if you still want to go up, the punishment will not necessarily be to what extent.

Some people don't believe in such a strange thing, and try to take a step halfway up the mountain, but it is a sunny day but suddenly a lightning bolt falls directly to the bottom of the mountain, and they die on the spot and don't even need any treatment, and some people who don't deliberately cross the line are also in danger of breaking their hands and feet. After all these events, no one dared to go to that mountain and do anything wrong.

The more Wan Qiliang knows about the history of Zhuzhou, the more he feels that this place is very suspicious, if there is a curse in this world, there must be many people who want her to die well, but unfortunately she has not lived to the present, but it can't be said that she doesn't exist if she doesn't believe in it, she never believed in ghosts and gods before, and now she has to compromise to think that there is indeed such a thing. But if you want to get to the bottom of the history of Zhuzhou, I'm afraid Wan Qiliang won't live to really understand the time, there are too many secrets hidden here, the city lord's mansion that never allows outsiders to enter, and the city lord who has never been seen by outsiders, aren't they all a mystery? If they existed very reasonably, what else did she have to know!

Wan Qiliang sent someone to keep an eye on Ren Jie's foothold, but now he didn't dare to live here anymore, so his room was always empty, and the things inside were also placed there. But although there was no one to live in, there were people who visited, maybe they couldn't get what they wanted from the disappeared Ren Feng and the dead Ren Jie, and now they didn't even let go of the relics of the dead.

But no one dares to mess up the room, they all think that this is an extremely ominous place, after all, it is a dead person, of course, it will feel very unlucky, if it is contaminated with the bad luck here, maybe what will become of it, some people think so, they have to give up their greed and want their own lives, but some people are not reconciled, they work hard to participate in the martial arts conference, if everything is still the same as before, lose and obey the command of others, but now the old and new alliance leaders die and disappear, The group of dragons without a leader naturally wants to be the head of the dragon, but even if they can convince the people without the alliance seal, they can't sit in that seat safely, and they can't guarantee that one day someone will force themselves to abdicate with the alliance seal, so the top priority is to find the alliance seal before they can lead the group.

But in Ren Jie's room, they didn't find anything, except for a few of his clothes, which was very disappointing, but some people still didn't give up, and their hands reached out to the Ren family, looking forward to getting the alliance seal from Ren Feng's family, but Ren Feng's family didn't know anything except that he was the leader of the martial arts alliance, because if there was anything usual, Ren Feng and Ren Jie's brothers discussed it behind closed doors, and they never knew what happened to them. If someone hadn't come to tell them about Ren Feng and Ren Jie's deaths, I'm afraid they wouldn't even know about it until now.

For a while, the entire Ren family compound cried to death, the old one cried, the young one also cried, the Ren family has such two sons, although they have also become biological sons, but which child is not the heart of their parents, one of the two elders of the Ren family can't withstand such a blow, plus the usual health is not good, all of a sudden he drove to the west, not even a little preparation. Originally, a happy family, just three people died, Ren's father, as the patriarch, controlled himself, and tried his best to grasp such a situation, but an old man, usually out of breath when he walked a few more steps, how should he be good for such a thunderbolt on a sunny day? In the end, it was Ren Feng's wife who came forward to take care of the old lady's aftermath first, as for her own husband and brother-in-law, how could the unwillingness in his heart be clear in one sentence or two? !
