Whether it's a killer or a thief, they usually choose to do it at this time of night.

Because normal people tend to sleep most soundly at this time, and their bodies are also in the most relaxed state, others will easily succeed.

Qingshi staggered his sleeping time and avoided this sensitive point, but he still didn't save his life, which shows that the person who killed him has been observing him for a long time.

Zhuang Siyan remembered the time half a month ago, maybe they wanted to do it that time, but they were broken by Zhuang Siyan, so they chose the later time.

Zhuang Siyan regretted it a lot, if he had forcibly let Qingshi move away at that time, today's tragedy would definitely not have happened.

What was she thinking in her head, Qingshi said that he could handle it, so he believed him, and he didn't even think about it, the other party arrived at his door, and he didn't find it, so if he really started to do it, could he really prevent it?

Xu Ning looked at everything in the room, and finally confirmed that there were two people in the house, and there was one person guarding the door and one person outside the window.

In other words, a total of four people came together, and their martial arts were no worse than Qingshi, and they also drugged him in advance, and then took his life.

In addition to sword wounds, he also had hidden weapon wounds on his body.

In the futon on Xu Ning's bed, as well as in the corner of the wall, there are hidden weapons, which are triangular stinging darts, non-toxic, but they will hurt very, very painful when hit on the body, and if they hit the vital places, one is enough to kill people.

These people came to ask for Qingshi's life, so they were fully prepared, and they didn't leave him a chance to live.

Zhuang Siyan almost didn't dare to imagine how Qingshi could persist for half an hour in that state of disparity, he must have been very, very desperate in the end, and he also hit himself until he had no strength, and then he was hung on the wall by the other party.

Zhuang Siyan caught the triangular dart head with a handkerchief and asked Tang Geng: "Do you know if anyone on Jiang paste will use this kind of thing?" ”

Tang Geng shook his head.

I had heard that there were Tang Sects in the Sichuan-Tibet region that would use these things, but after so many years, these things have always been legends, and no one has even seen them, so he didn't speak.

Zhuang Siyan took something to the Ouchi guards again, but he didn't know either.

Qingshi's body was temporarily placed in Dali Temple, and he was also regarded as an official of the imperial court, so the matter was naturally handed over to Dali Temple to investigate.

But Zhuang Siyan wrote down all the suspicious points here, and brought all the suspicious things with him, including the thin and long sword.

She still went to Xunma Mountain.

The first thing he said when he saw Ye Yuanpei was: "Look at these things, do you know them?" ”

The other party stared at her things and looked at the things that had a cup of tea, and the more she looked at it, the tighter her brows wrinkled.

Zhuang Siyan felt hope in his heart: "Do you know? ”

Ye Yuanpei: "When I was in Northern Xinjiang, I saw it, it was Qiu Gang's mansion." ”

Zhuang Siyan's fists clenched suddenly: "You mean that it was Qiu Gang's people who killed Qingshi?" ”

When Ye Yuanpei heard this, his head suddenly raised: "What did you just say?" Bluestone was killed? ”

Zhuang Siyan's heart hurts, but the more it hurts, the more she wants to avenge Qingshi.

Reason came back quickly, suppressed all those sadness and sadness, first told what happened before he came, and then said: "Qiu Gang sent his people to the capital first to do something to Qingshi, what is he going to do?" ”

Ye Yuanpei's eyes narrowed: "Show off, warn, or maybe it's an assassination, Qingshi is just the first." ”

This is a terrible speculation.

If Qiu Gang really sent his masters there out and wanted to do something to the people in the capital, even if he didn't kill someone like Qingshi, it would make people panic.

Now it's better to take the bluestone first, so who will they deal with next?

The two quickly analyzed a set of plans for this matter.

There are not many people who come, and their martial arts are not too high, otherwise it would not have been half a month, and in the end they still chose to do it with bluestone.

There may be two reasons for this, one is that they have a grudge against Qingshi, that is, they are here to kill him, if this is the case, then it may not be what they said before, serial killing, and there will be others later.

But this possibility is not very large, because they are Qiu Gang's people, so they must not have come to the capital for personal revenge, it is very likely to be aimed at Ling Tiancheng, Ye Yuanpei, and everyone related to them.

Another possibility is that they are really not very good, so they can only choose to be alone, and it is still under their own careful planning.

From the analysis of the situation in the bluestone house, this possibility is the most likely.

They are not completely sure that they can kill people, so once there are more people, it is easy to show the wind and trap them, but they want to create this momentum, so they set their target on the lone bluestone.

Ye Yuanpei said: "It's right to hand over this matter to Tang Geng, but I just want the Praetorian Guards to cooperate, and now the whole city is searching, maybe something will be discovered." ”

Zhuang Siyan nodded: "I'll go to Dali Temple in a while." ”

Ye Yuanpei said again: "I'm going north soon, I can't manage so much in the capital, you have to be careful in this matter, don't always run outside the palace, they are really in a hurry, even if they don't have a chance of winning, they may make a move on you." ”

Zhuang Siyan's face was cold: "I hope they can come to me, I also want to see what they are like, it's better not to let me catch them, otherwise, I will use a method ten times worse than Qingshi, a hundred times worse, and let them die." ”

Ye Yuanpei shook his head and said: "Don't be rash, now we are in the light, they are in the dark, no one knows where the people will be, and they don't know when to do it, it's better to be careful." ”

Zhuang Siyan glanced outside his tent: "Did you say they might be here?" ”

Ye Yuanpei smiled: "It's impossible, they come here to find death, from the analysis of the case, they just want to find a single person, two more people, even if they can't do martial arts, they don't dare to move."

What is this place? It's my army camp, even if he can kill a person successfully, don't want to get out alive. ”

Zhuang Siyan finally put some heart at ease.

Asked if Ye Yuanpei would enter the palace before the expedition, he replied simply: "Of course I have to go to see my daughter-in-law, when will you go back, I will be with you." ”

The two didn't talk much at the moment, Ye Yuanpei simply packed some things and followed her down the mountain.

When I arrived at the foot of the mountain at the horse training ground, I saw that a team of Ouchi guards in the palace was already waiting there.

The leader was Mo Yun, who stepped forward and saluted: "Queen Mother, the emperor already knows about Lord Qingshi, and sent me to protect Niangniang here." ”

Zhuang Siyan said "um": "I'm fine, it's better for you to guard the emperor more, these killers are extremely vicious and lawless, you should pay more attention to the defense in the palace recently, and be careful not to let strangers get in." ”

The group came out of the horse training field, and after entering Beijing, Ye Yuanpei entered the palace, but Zhuang Siyan still had to go to Dali Temple.

This matter is related to Qingshi, she is eager to catch the murderer, and for the safety of other people in the capital, she must synchronize the news she knows with Tang Geng as soon as possible.

After going to Dali Temple, she had to go to the Praetorian Guards, but fortunately, Ling Tiancheng gave her enough rights, and it didn't take much effort to arrange these things.

It's just that she walked back and forth several times, and mentioned the matter of Qingshi to people again and again, and the picture she saw in the morning, the miserable appearance of Qingshi, also appeared in front of her again and again.

Zhuang Siyan has been talking to people several times and can't go on, the stalk in her throat is too uncomfortable, and her words are stuck there, and she has to pause for a long time before she can continue.

When all these things were dealt with, it was dark.

When it was time to go back to the palace, she also knew that she should go back early, Ling Tiancheng must be worried about her at this time.

There is also Ye Yuanpei, his time in the capital is running out, and he doesn't have a lot of military affairs to arrange, so it's really not easy to find time to see Li Hua.

Originally, Zhuang Siyan wanted to accompany him, but there were a lot of things outside, and she didn't want to delay for a moment, so the two parted halfway.

When they go back at this time, the two of them should have met each other.

Ling Tiancheng was definitely worried about her.

She also wanted to go back to see Ling Tiantian, she had been with him for a long time, and she still wanted to see him for a day, especially when the world was unstable now.

But some illusions suddenly appeared in her mind, as if the killers were very close to her, watching her not far away.

Ordinary people, as soon as this feeling comes out, they have to find a safe place to hide as soon as possible, but Zhuang Siyan is different.

She was going to catch these people, so as soon as she realized that it was probably her sixth sense that was causing trouble, she not only postponed the time to return to the palace, but also walked around the back street.

Mo Yun soon noticed that something was wrong with her, and quietly followed her and asked, "Queen Mother, aren't you going back to the palace yet?" ”

Zhuang Siyan shook his head, his eyes looked ahead, his lips moved slightly, and his voice drifted to his ears very quietly: "Have you noticed that someone is following us?" ”

Mo Yun was stunned, and originally wanted to look around, but he was very smart, he withdrew his gaze in time, lowered his head and pretended to listen to Zhuang Siyan's words, and his voice was already lowered: "Did the queen mother find something?" ”

Not.

With Mo Yun's skill, if there were really people around them, it must be that Zhuang Siyan hadn't noticed it yet, and he would find out first.

However, Zhuang Siyan just thought that there were some unknown dangers not far from them.

There are really few people who know the danger and still move forward step by step, because this fear comes from the heart, like a sharp claw with long armor, so tightly gripping people's hearts.

Zhuang Siyan's fists were clenched very tightly, fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and the scene when Qingshi was killed appeared over and over again in his mind.

They were getting farther and farther away from the street, and they were completely hidden in the back street.

At this time, not only Zhuang Siyan felt danger and nervousness, but even Mo Yun felt unusual.

Under the protection of Zhuang Siyan, he wanted to escort the queen back to the palace immediately, and several people accompanying him had already drawn their swords.

The back street, which was already deserted, was even more uninhabited at this time, surrounded by black holes, and from time to time there were one or two strange noises from somewhere, not a noise of people, but with horror.

After walking forward for a while, his feet had unconsciously begun to slow down, his spirit was extremely concentrated, and his eyes watched all the movements around him.

Just as they were about to finish this back street, two people suddenly walked out of the intersection.

The two were thin, one black and one white, like the legendary black and white impermanence, and appeared in front of everyone.
