Volume 3: Zhongzhou Fengyun Chapter 83: Foggy
Among the three people, this cook has nothing to do with Jiang Huaer's case at all.
After the guards of the Castle Tower and the Scripture Pavilion were killed by Barro, they were able to ask for some clues.
And this eunuch stumped Lu Cheng.
There is no trace of the soul on this eunuch at all.
His face was destroyed, his facial features were unrecognizable, and his identity could not be confirmed if he was not wearing a castrated python robe.
It was as if it was such a shell, his soul had been completely erased, and there was not a trace of soul breath left.
"If my guess is correct, this person may really be the murderer of Jiang Huaer. ”
Old Lu pondered for a moment and said, because it is impossible for ordinary people to die without leaving any soul breath.
"I'm also curious about it, because I really don't understand what it's all about. ”
After the second prince finished speaking, the old eunuch on the side stepped forward and pulled away the little eunuch's clenched hand.
Inside is a strange sigil.
"This kid's practice is also a eunuch's Yin Dispelling Skill, but our family can't use this sigil in this kung fu. ”
"His corpse was also fished out by our master in the moat, and what was fished up was that he still had two big stones tied to his body. ”
"The old slave deduced that this child died to protect the master, and we eunuchs lived for the master and died for the master all their lives, but this child is not worth dying. ”
After the old eunuch finished speaking, he retreated behind the second prince.
The second prince shook his head and sighed.
"I don't know whose slave this little eunuch is?"
Lu Cheng asked, and the second prince said calmly:
"All records of him have been destroyed, and I have no way of knowing his identity, not even his name. ”
Lu Cheng looked at this unrecognizable face and smiled.
"The more carefully planned, the more likely it is to have problems, after all, there are no impermeable walls in this world. ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that?"
"You can't get rid of the soul directly by ordinary methods, but I do know of a way to eliminate the soul so completely. ”
Lu Cheng looked at the talisman in the little eunuch's hand, and the familiar sigil made him feel a foggy feeling.
"It's just that I don't know if the second prince has heard of it, Yin ghost. ”
Hearing this term, the second prince suddenly felt a little creepy.
How could he not know that with his identity, he knew a lot about Yin ghosts.
But, knowing that he knows that his second prince doesn't have the courage to deal with yin ghosts.
Even, it can be said that in this entire Cloud Empire, except for Lu Cheng, a strange person, the vast majority of other people don't have the courage to deal with Yin ghosts.
Yin ghosts are all resentful spirits in life, unless they can really suppress their existence in the soul.
Their hatred for humans makes it natural for them to attack them.
Yin ghosts cannot set foot in the human realm, because the strong people of the human realm are always on guard against them.
Humans can't easily set foot in the ghost realm, because if they are not careful, they will be scattered.
This has to mention an important person, the realm official of the ghost world.
The humans in the Ghost Realm are all born with psychic abilities, and the origin of the Realm Officials comes from a very ancient organization.
The official office of the ghost realm.
The leader of the Realm Officials was once a super powerhouse who had forged souls and cultivated to the sixth order of God Transformation, and he single-handedly founded the Realm Officials in order to make huge profits in the transactions between the human world and the ghost realm.
If you ask which organization in the Cloud Empire is the richest other than the royal family, then the Realm Officials are definitely one of them.
What is surprising is that all the human realm officials in the realm official office are from the Cloud Empire, and Lu Cheng has never seen anyone from their side who can become a realm official when he goes to the open sea and the Western Regions.
When I spent a lot of money at the boundary official in exchange for Gui Qing Linggong, I learned a little about the daily life of the boundary official.
At that time, there will only be eleven realm officials in the realm official office, among them, there are six humans and five yin ghosts.
The affairs of the ghost world are complicated, and if you rely on these eleven realm officials alone, it is estimated that the realm officials will be chaotic long ago.
Therefore, the Realm Officials will also gather many little ghosts to handle chores for them.
The rune in the eunuch's hand is a special rune used by the realm officials to recruit imps.
If an ordinary Yin Ghost is placed with this sigil, he will become a miscellaneous imp in the Realm Official's Office, and the treatment is quite good, at least compared to being an errand under the Ghost King.
If this sigil is placed on a person in the human world, then the soul of this person will be completely transformed into a ghost.
Therefore, this rune is not a thing in the human world, but something in the ghost world.
"So, the death of this little eunuch is related to the Yin Ghost?"
"Ordinary people can't see it, I can still be sure, but the reason is not easy to tell His Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”
The second prince thought about it for a while, indeed, ordinary people are very afraid of yin ghosts.
Even the second prince was reluctant to provoke the Yin Ghost easily, after all, the death qi practiced by this Yin Ghost had a great impact on the living.
When ordinary people touch this breath of death, they will be weak and weak at worst, and their lives will be difficult to protect.
There have been several incidents in history where ghosts came to the world to plague the common people, and they were all tragedies of annihilation.
The existence of the realm official office not only ensures the material circulation of the ghost world and the human world, but also ensures that the ghost world and the human world do not interfere with each other.
And Lu Cheng, who has the Soul Crossing Banner and cultivates the Returning to the Oblivion Qing Spiritual Skill, is an outlier, and he can freely wander in the ghost world and the human world.
In terms of the soul realm, even the highest law enforcement officer of the current realm official is only on a par with Lu Cheng.
"In that case, then the master of this little eunuch ......"
The second prince smiled, although he couldn't touch the matter of this Halloween, but he could still figure out the families involved in the ghost world.
Six human realm officials, each from four families.
The Yuan family of the Yuanjing Chamber of Commerce has two realm officials.
Among the acolytes of the Xunfeng Temple under the river, there are also two realm officials.
There are also two people from the South Vietnamese Fang family and a major general from Zhongzhou Mu.
From this point of view, the possibility of the Yuan family is the greatest.
And the Yuan family is the prince's dog.
"So, the crown prince wants Jiang Huaer's life?"
Tang Ke was a little puzzled, Lu Cheng patted Tang Ke's shoulder and shook his head.
The crown prince, in the final analysis, is also the prince.
Jiang Huaer is the grandson of King Qi, and the relationship between King Qi and the sect is self-evident.
As a crown prince, it is absolutely impossible to have a relationship with the sect.
Well, there's only one possibility.
"My stupid brother, I'm afraid I'm being used as a shield!"
The second prince had an expression that he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, but he especially wanted to see the eldest prince deflated.
The reason why he wasted half of his strength was because he begged his teacher who was practicing in the castle tower, and because he got these three corpses through various sales.
It's just to be able to disgust the big prince.
Even if Jiang Huaer's cause of death had nothing to do with the crown prince, his second prince had to forcibly connect these two things to him.
Because, that's how fun to watch!
"There are Lao Lu Zhenren and Tang Er in charge, the main hall will set up a banquet for the two of them, and the two of them should not be a must-have in Yunjing if they taste the wine and food of my warm and fragrant residence!"
After that, the second prince walked out of the room with Tang Ke and Lu Cheng, and the old eunuch locked the door properly after settling the three corpses.
"Go to the rooftop, Gonggong Wen, call Xue Ying out, there are distinguished guests today, serve the best dishes!"
The second prince shouted and walked straight to the stairwell on the fourth floor.
From the fourth floor to the rooftop, you need to walk through an extremely bright stairwell, and in this stairwell alone, there are several volumes of landscape maps.
It's all out of everyone's hands, and these two princes really like calligraphy and painting very much.
On the rooftop, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, who would have thought that in this gorgeously decorated warm fragrance residence, there is actually a cave.
The top stream is murmuring, the flowing water is still around, the breeze blows the willows, the flowers are blooming and rich, it is dusk at this time, and the clouds can be clearly seen on the top floor.
In the midst of the singing of birds and flowers, there is a flat Tai Chi round platform with a few soft knitted cushions on it.
This round platform is made of warm stones, so you won't feel cold when you step on it barefoot, and there is a warm current flowing directly into your body from the soles of your feet, which is very comfortable.
In the center of the round platform is a yellow pear tabletop, and the tabletop is carved with a picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix.
"Lu Zhenren, can you return the eyes on the rooftop of the main hall?"
"Where is the second prince, your rooftop is definitely the best place to entertain in this Yunjing. ”
Lu Cheng boasts the beauty of the artistic conception of this rooftop, the mountains, rivers and trees, willows and streams, which can be said to be an excellent artistic conception.
The most commendable thing is that there are many places in this rooftop scene.
The trees are verdant, you can hear the birds singing but you don't see the birds, the water is murmuring, and you can hear the fish jumping out of the water without seeing the traces of the swimming fish.
The trees are dense but neat and clean, but the Orchid Pavilion of the Book Garden is empty and quiet.
A sense of opposing and contradictory beauty is beautifully expressed on this rooftop.
"Gonggong Wen, arrange the food, the main hall is especially looking forward to the wine that Lu Zhenren brought back from the Western Regions. ”
"The second prince is not in a hurry!"
Lu Cheng unhurriedly took out a scroll from his crotch, although the second prince couldn't tell where he took out the scroll from this angle.
But Tang Ke, who was sitting next to Lu Cheng, saw it really clearly.
It's really the damn scroll that came out of the crotch.
Opening the scroll and urging the true qi, three delicate crystal bottles appeared from the scroll.
The skill of this scroll is not unusual, and the key lies in this drink.
What kind of precious wine is worth storing in Lu Cheng with a scroll?
"These three bottles of wine are good things that I have treasured for a long time, we will open one bottle today, and the remaining two bottles will be regarded as gifts for His Highness. ”
After that, Lu Cheng skillfully opened a bottle of wine, and the moment the lid was opened, the aroma of the wine directly spread.
The aroma of wine is mixed with the sweet aroma of fruit trees, and there is a refreshing feeling just by smelling it.
"This wine ......"
The eyes of the second prince were a little stunned, watching Lu Cheng pour the clear wine into the glass, this clear color really made people want to taste it.
"Fine, fine. ”
Lu Cheng beckoned the second prince to drink, and Tang Er's master couldn't hold it back, so he also took a sip.
Sweet.
Delicate fragrance.
Drunk.
Three words burst out in the minds of the second prince and the second master of Tang, and the taste of this wine was really indescribable.
It's like listening to an extremely elegant pipa song, accompanied by a dance of a heavenly maiden.
"Your Highness, the shopkeeper has arrived. ”
Gonggong Wen's words, the two princes and Tang Ke didn't seem to hear it.
However, Lu Cheng heard it well, it should be Fang Xueying's shopkeeper.
When I first met Liu Ruyu, I was shocked and incoherent because I didn't expect that there would be such a stunning beauty in a place like Yuelai Inn.
This time, he was mentally prepared.
No matter how otherworldly and beautiful this Fang Xueying is, he will definitely not be so shocked.
Lu Zhenren's ears were sharp, and he could hear a very light step going up the stairs.
As the pace gradually slowed down, it should have reached the rooftop.
Before you saw her, you knew that she was a very good dancer, and her steps were light, giving people the feeling of floating lightly on the ground.
"Your Highness. ”
As soon as Fang Xueying appeared, she saluted the second prince.
When Lao Lu saw Fang Xueying, he thought he was ready, but in fact, he was not ready at all.
Fang Xueying's facial features are exquisite, and she gives people an otherworldly feeling when she paints light makeup.
If Liu Ruyu is a fairy in wine who is not drunk and everyone is drunk, then Fang Xueying is really a fairy descending to earth.
Her smile and her every move carried a kind of fairy aura.
It was an incomprehensible beauty, as if everything about her should not exist in this filthy world.
The hair is simply coiled, the eyes that look through the autumn water, and the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned.
Liu Ruyu is as drunk as wine, while Fang Xueying is as clean as she was born.
How can there be such a clean person?
"These two are His Royal Highness's distinguished guests, and the slave family has seen two sons. ”
"This, this, this...... Hey, no ...... Never mind. ”
Lao Lu was incoherent again, on this table, two people were drunk with a glass of wine, and one was intoxicated when he saw a beauty.
Men are indeed indulged in a glass of wine and drunk on beauty.
