Chapter 18: The Ancient Reasoning

In order to track who controlled the group of snakes to attack Tianyu, Ling Fan and his party followed the traces of the snakes to escape and came to a forest, but they encountered a sudden attack by a strange black shadow, Ling Fan almost died, fortunately, Tianyu was quick and quickly subdued the two black shadows, but found that the black shadows were not animals, but two tree vines, Gu Rufeng told Ling Fan that they may have been attacked by the tree monster in the woods-Tree Lun, and at this moment, Tianyu found a black shadow like a human shape flashed away.

"What's that, is it a tree?!" Ling Fan stared at the direction of the disappearing black shadow and bumped into Gu Rufeng and asked.

Gu Rufeng shook his head and said, "How do I know, it may or may not be, but it is extremely likely." ”

But Tianyu couldn't help it, the ancient supernatural knowledge didn't have the slightest effect on her, she squatted down and stared at the ground, and said coldly: "Will the tree tree leave footprints?" ”

Hearing this, Ling Fan hurriedly ran to Tianyu's side, and sure enough, there were clear footprints printed on the ground, and from the size of the footprints, it was speculated that it should be an adult man's foot, not like a trace of something like a tree monster.

Everyone was confused by these human footprints for a while, how could human footprints suddenly appear, didn't they just say that the tree was attacking them, how could a person suddenly appear, and if this black shadow is a human, then what is the reason why he appeared here, if he has nothing to do with these tree vines that suddenly attacked them, then why did he run.

"Let's go! Chase him! As long as it was a person, Ling Fan felt that there was nothing to be afraid of, so he got up and chased after the footprints, "I want to see who he is." ”

"Ling boy, you wait for me, wait for my old man!" Gu Rufeng saw that Ling Fan said to leave, and hurriedly chased after him.

Tianyu's soft eyes revealed, put away the dagger, and then followed closely.

Although the floor of the woods is covered with withered leaves, you can still clearly see the traces of footprints.

The three of them continued to follow the footprints on the withered leaves, but after walking a distance, the footprints suddenly disappeared, and what appeared in front of them was a high wall.

"What's the matter, what about the footprints, why are they gone, did they disappear out of thin air?" Gu Rufeng shouted with wide eyes as he looked at the footprints that suddenly disappeared on the ground.

Ling Fan looked up at the wall, thought for a moment, and said, "I think that person may have climbed over the wall, what is the place behind this wall?" ”

"It's the Zheng family's mansion." Tianyu replied.

"Huh? Zheng family mansion! Ling Fan looked at Tianyu with wide eyes.

As soon as Ling Fan's words fell, he heard a loud laugh like the wind and sandwind————hahaha!

Ling Fan and Tianyu looked at Gu Rufeng, who was laughing profusely, and frowned in unison, and asked, "Old Gu, what are you smirking at, what's so funny?" ”

Liangyi, Gu Rufeng stopped laughing, he raised a finger and shook it in front of Ling Fan, and said with a smile: "I understand, haha, I understand." ”

"What do you understand?" Ling Fan was confused by Gu Rufeng's words.

"Hehe, Ling boy, can't you see that the murderer is the person in the Zheng family's mansion, who manipulated the snakes to attack Tianyu, and manipulated the tree vines to attack us, and finally we found that the person who escaped over the wall was actually the person from the Zheng family's mansion, and from the footprints, we know that the murderer is a man, think about it, there are several men in the Zheng family's mansion, and who can get the greatest benefit after killing Zheng Jiashu and Zheng Jiaya?" Gu Rufeng put on the appearance of a detective at this time, turned around twice beside Tianyu and Ling Fan, and asked with a smile.

Naturally, without thinking about it, Ling Fan knew that the person Gu Rufeng was alluding to was Zheng Jiaming, the second young master of the Zheng family, the fourth son of the Zheng family, the eldest brother Zheng Jiashu and the second sister Zheng Jiaya have passed away, and now only Zheng Jiaming and Zheng Jiayi are left, and Zheng Jiayi is still young and still in the study stage, so the biggest beneficiary of the Zheng family's property after that is Zheng Jiaming.

"But is it really that simple?" Gu Rufeng's inference was impeccable in terms of motives and characters, but Ling Fan always felt that things would never be as simple as Lao Gu said, "That Zheng Jiaming doesn't look like a murderer?" ”

Seeing that Ling Fan disagreed with his inference, Gu Rufeng patted Ling Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Ling boy, didn't you say it, what you see with your eyes is not necessarily the truth, whether the second kid of the Zheng family is a murderer or not, won't it be clear if we go to interrogate him, if the black shadow of Fang Cai is really him, then he will definitely not be able to show an alibi, right?" ”

Ling Fan stared at Gu Rufeng with extremely suspicious eyes, then circled around him, shook his head slowly, and said in a tone of disbelief: "Yo, yes, old Gu, you have also learned to reason, hehe, Shibei will be impressed in three days!" ”

Gu Rufeng raised his head proudly and said with a smile: "That is, this master is naturally wise, martial, wise and brave, these little tricks will be good at a glance, haha————! ”

"Come on, you, you really flew into the sky with two words of praise, haha, without further ado, let's go to the Zheng family to visit the second young master of the Zheng family." Ling Fan clenched his fist and slammed it towards Gu Rufeng's chest, and as he spoke, he pulled Gu Rufeng back.

"Hey, Tianyu, why don't you leave?" Ling Fan and Gu Rufeng walked back more than a dozen steps, and seeing that Tianyu didn't follow, they couldn't help but turn around and ask curiously.

Tianyu still stood in place, just snorted coldly, and then bent his body slightly, and then like a stretched spring, he bounced up in an instant, jumped up more than two meters high, and the two slender jade hands held the edge of the wall tightly at once, and then squatted on the wall with both feet, and the whole body flew up, and then Tianyu squatted on the wall, her pretty face was not red, and Xianglan was not panting.

Ling Fan and Gu Rufeng stood there in a daze as if they were watching a stunt movie, and it took them a few minutes to come to their senses.

"Damn, Tianyu girl is really powerful, this wall is nearly three meters high, she climbed it so easily, she is really a god!" Gu Rufeng stretched out his thumb to Tianyu and praised it.

"Less nonsense, come, you jump, I'll catch you!" Tianyu was still calm and relaxed, and then stretched out his hand and said to Ling Fan.

Ling Fan couldn't help but swallow his saliva, good guy, this wall is more than three meters high, he can usually jump more than half a meter high at most, although Tianyu reached out to pick him up at this time, but he also has to jump more than one meter high to be happy, more than one meter high, that is only a professional basketball player can do.

But looking at Tianyu's outstretched hand, Ling Fan was embarrassed to say that he couldn't do it, so he had to step forward, he looked up at the wall, and felt dizzy.

Tianyu cast an encouraging glance at him.

"Ling boy, come on!" Gu Rufeng was gloating and drinking on the side.

"Die or die!" Ling Fan gritted his teeth suddenly, then squatted down and jumped, trying to shake Tianyu's outstretched jade hand.

However, the reality is too cruel, according to Gu Rufeng's description at the time, the distance between the hands of the two is more than a meter away, which is really tragic.

Ling Fan tried several times, but he still couldn't shorten the fatal distance, and in the end there was really no way, Gu Rufeng couldn't stand it anymore, so he let Ling Fan kick on his shoulder, Ling Fan's hand was held by Tianyu, and then pulled down, and finally the two of them pulled Gu Rufeng up again. Of course, Lao Gu's performance was not much better than Ling Fan's, but fortunately, Ling Fan proposed to use a tree vine to pull Lao Gu up, and just like that, the three of them successfully climbed over the wall.

Next, when jumping down, Tianyu was extremely relaxed, but Ling Fan and Lao Gu frowned tightly, as the saying goes, it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, this jumping down from the three-meter-high wall is also quite terrifying, Ling Fan did not have the courage to jump directly from the wall, but climbed the edge of the wall with both hands, and his body hung down, so that the actual distance between his feet and the ground is more than one meter high, and this height is still not dead.

Anyway, the last three of them came to the Zheng family's mansion safely, but they seemed to come to the backyard, and the backyard seemed to be a little messy, and because of the clutter of the woods, the footprints became blurred and could not be found.

Just when Ling Fan and the three of them had just turned into the backyard of the Zheng family, they suddenly barked violently, and then saw an elderly male maid running towards them with two black wolf dogs, and shouted loudly: "Who are you?!" Why climb into the walls of someone else's house! ”

"Old Gu, quick, you can do this!" Ling Fan hurried to Gu Rufeng's side and said.

The corners of Gu Rufeng's mouth twitched, he glared at Ling Fan fiercely, and said, "I know that you Ling Boy is not well-intentioned, and when you encounter this kind of thing, you will know to let your big brother Gu go!" Although Lao Gu said this about Ling Fan, he still greeted the male maid who led the dog with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's me, not a bad person." ”

The maid who led the dog saw Gu Rufeng's appearance, and immediately recognized it, and then scolded the two wolf dogs not to bark, looked up at Gu Rufeng, and said with a smile: "Dao Chief, why are you here, how can you come in over the wall?" ”

Gu Rufeng's eyes rolled, and said: "This matter is complicated, and I can't explain it to you, anyway, I'm tracking the evil spirit, by the way, is the second young master of the Zheng family at home now?" ”

"Yes, Young Master Jiaming is now accompanying the old lady with Miss Jiayi, what is the Taoist asking for?" The maid asked rhetorically as he answered Gu Rufeng's question.

Gu Rufeng no longer paid attention to the maid and turned to look at Ling Fan and Tianyu, patted his chest, and said with a smile: "Ling boy, Tianyu girl, you can take a good look, look at my Gu Master is now making the real evil spirit visible!" ”
