Chapter 6 Cellar Autopsy
Hearing the name of the Shadow Knife Technique, Tang Yun was obviously stunned for a while, and then said, "Anyone can have a Knife Technique, this is not enough to be evidence." ”
Wan Jinhai seemed to have expected Tang Yun to say this, he took a sip of tea slowly, stood up and said, "Lord Tang, what Xia Guan said is naturally based on it, if it is convenient, how about taking a look?" ”
The structure of Si Xing Temple is very tight, there are sergeants stationed in each place, and the small officials hurriedly run back and forth with the scrolls in their hands, without superfluous sounds, as if the sky is covered with clouds, which is very depressing.
Once the eldest grandson Lingxiu was the catcher of Si Xing Temple, as the place where he controlled the affairs of the world's prisons, Si Xing Temple was strictly performing its duties at all times.
Wan Jinhai took Tang Yun and walked all the way inside, and the more he walked inside, the fewer people came, and in the end, only two sergeants in iron armor were guarding here. Behind the two sergeants, there was a dark cellar with long steps leading down.
Wan Jinhai showed his waist card and explained to Tang Yun: "This is a place to put some valuable corpses, and the pestle hall outside is too simple, so I have to build a cellar here." ”
Tang Yun followed Wan Jinhai inside, and on the way, he glanced at the sergeant standing here with the rest of his eyes.
Most of the sergeants guarding outside are from the military guards, these two are obviously not, and they know that this is the forbidden army by looking at the faintly reflective dragon patterns on their black armor. Moreover, Tang Yun also noticed a few secret whistles, there should be arrows in their hands, and once something happens, they will immediately shoot arrows.
This is strange, the Praetorian Army is usually guarding Miyagi, what are they guarding a cellar where the corpses are kept?
Tang Yun didn't ask much, and followed Wan Jinhai to the cellar. I don't know where to walk out of two eunuchs, and they have to search their bodies without saying a word.
"Lord Tang, these people are all from the inner chamberlain, don't resist, it'll be over in a while."
Wan Jinhai reminded in a low voice that the two eunuchs had already found two daggers from Tang Yun, and when the eunuchs found the third dagger from Tang Yun, even Wan Jinhai's head broke out in a cold sweat, who would have thought that Tang Yun would hide so many things under his official uniform.
"This adult looks young, and the means of hiding things are the same as those of the old slave. If it weren't for the fact that you are a military minister, I wouldn't have let you in today anyway. The eunuch's tone was very hoarse, and the old eunuch didn't know how old he had lived, and he looked very old, but his hands were still powerful and his eyes were very vicious.
The hand was rough, with dense calluses on it, and it was always curved. Tang Yun knew that this was the result of holding the knife for many years, and their hands were already deformed and could no longer be straightened.
The two old eunuchs are both masters, and it is said that there are many such martial arts powerhouses in the palace, and Tang Yun has heard of these things for a long time, but he doesn't know why these two people stay in such a place.
In the cellar, it was dark, only the lampshade on the wall still faintly flickered.
The old eunuch disappeared after searching his body, knowing that there must be something valuable hidden in this place, Tang Yun didn't say much. Knowing too much is not a good thing, as for Wan Jinhai, he doesn't seem to be very familiar here, and he took Tang Yun to a stone slab after looking for a long time.
It's very cold here, and I don't know where the slightest cold air wafts in, and the temperature of the entire cellar is lowered a lot.
Wan Jinhai opened the white, revealing a terrifying dried corpse.
Tang Yun's eyes froze, he knew that Yang Yi was dead, but he didn't expect it to be such a death.
"The pestle in the yamen has been checked, and all the blood on Yang Yi's body has been drained, and not a drop has been shed. Both of his eyes were also gouged out. Tsk, I don't know who is provoking the sacred. ”
Tang Yun touched the mouth of Yang Yi's corpse with his hand.
He had seen a lot of dried corpses like this before. In the desert of Mobei, such dried corpses can be seen everywhere. Some were devoured by birds, and some gradually turned into dry bones.
Yang Yi's mouth has a lot of blood holes on it.
Wan Jinhai explained: "When the body was first brought over, his mouth was sewn with thread. The pestle carefully removed the thread, only to find that Yang Yi's teeth had also been knocked out. It is preliminarily inferred that Yang Yi was poisoned before his death. ”
Tang Yun turned his head: "Since you have an object of suspicion in your heart, why did you invite me again?" ”
"Xia Guan has been in charge of Si Xing Temple for many years, and some seemingly simple cases often hide other truths behind them. I've seen too much of this kind of thing. Lord Tang, I'll tell you clearly, even if the Oiran suddenly disappeared, but Xia Guan suspected that a little Oiran didn't have the courage to kill the Dang Dynasty Shangshu. Behind him, there may be someone else directing him. ”
"Because of this, you doubt me?" Tang Yun scoffed.
"My lord, please look at the neck of the corpse, three inches below left, there is a wound." Wan Jinhai broke the corpse's head.
If you don't look closely, it is difficult to find that there is a small wound on Yang Yi's neck. The wound was not obvious, it was cut horizontally, Tang Yun broke it with his hand, only to find that the wound was as deep as a fingernail.
Wan Jinhai said in a deep voice: "It is said that Mobei's shadow knife technique, which kills people invisibly, can often cause such wounds. I would also like to ask the adults to identify it, so as not to misunderstand. ”
"You checked me carefully." Tang Yun was still observing the wound.
Shadow knife technique, fast and precise, needs to be taken into account at the same time.
This is a special knife technique that does not pursue a one-hit kill, and is mostly used in the process of assassination.
The Wolf Hunter Guard goes deep into the Northern Wilderness, and in many cases there will be some sinister missions. It's easy to kill a person, but it's hard to escape under a heavy siege of enemies.
People who know how to use shadow swordsmanship often inadvertently strike after finding a target. It was so fast and accurate that the other party felt a sudden sharp pain at most, but then there was no damage. Most of the time, the knife is stabbed into the kidney, but it is not forced, it is only a single incision, and it is a very thin longitudinal incision.
In this way, the other party will not notice it at the first time, and the damage will be slow. By the time he realized it, the killer had fled thousands of miles away.
"Overnight, with such a small wound, it is impossible for the blood to drain."
Tang Yun pressed Yang Yi's wound with his hand, opened the wound, and observed carefully: "The two sides are thick and the middle is thin, this is directly pierced by a sharp weapon, and it is not cut with a knife." It's not a shadow blade. ”
Wan Jinhai shook his head: "My lord, what you said doesn't count." ”
Tang Yun's eyes froze: "What do you mean?" ”
Wan Jinhai showed a strange smile: "The thieves of the Northern Wilderness have entered, and it should be clear to Lord Tang if they want to come." Yang Shangshu took care of Xia Guan's affairs, and when he died suddenly, Xia Guan would inevitably make a series of adjustments. It's just that tomorrow in the court, His Royal Highness King Liang will definitely attack His Royal Highness King Yan, because the only suspect Rudong is from King Yan's Fengluan Pavilion. As for you...... Lord Tang. ”
"No one has ever seen the real Shadow Knife Technique, but this wound is exactly the same as the Shadow Knife Technique wound in the record. I heard that even in the Mobei Army, which is full of talents, there are only a few people who can do this. Lord Tang, now that His Royal Highness King Liang knows about this, even if the lower officials believe you, it is useless if others don't believe it. ”
