"Brilliant ...... Also August 23...... I don't know, I... I don't know her......" I was momentarily stunned, unable to squeeze out my incoherent words. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Ziche's gaze changed from solemnity to bitterness, "Yes, you really don't know her. But Ayahua has made a lot of sacrifices for you."

"For me?" I don't understand,

"All of this she has tried so hard is to hope that you will forget her......" Ziche drifted away again, coldly tugging at the corners of her mouth, and after a long while, she spoke, "She succeeded in some aspects, but she also failed in some aspects."

My eyes widened in astonishment, and I met the black eyes of the car as deep as emerald ink. I don't know what kind of heart he is suddenly willing to confess, and I am not sure how false his words are.

"Why did you tell me all of a sudden?" I wasn't ready to accept it, and I didn't expect him to be willing to recruit so quickly, there are ghosts.

"Hmph, where is all this nonsense, don't you just want to know, and now I'm willing to say that you don't want to hear it?" Ziche seemed to be smiling, exuding a strange quietness all over his body.

"That's not what I meant......" I thought of at the bottom of the Red Coral Valley, and he asked me if I had eaten the breath of mermaid meat, Ling

People are uncomfortable.

Then he asked, "How much do you know about the Six Gates and the Lijing Gate?"

I replied, "Not much, but I know it seems to be...... Something inconvenient." I described it very implicitly.

At this point, the plane entered a steady flight, the overhead seat belt warning light went out, and I quickly pulled off the suffocating restraints so that my body and mind could breathe.

He continued, "In essence, they are similar, but in fact, these two pairs of people are different, the Lijing Gate is directly under the Son of Heaven, and they have the right to face the Holy One, and they are also in the court. As for the six doors, it's a bit like this...... The police? A little higher......

Oh! To put it simply, the Lijing Gate is a secret service, and the six doors are a little higher for the police, understand.

"In fact, the people of the two gates did their own thing, and they never got together again, until a case was placed above, and everyone from Lijing Gate and the Six Gates was mobilized."

"A case?"

Ziche's expression turned from worried, "Well, it's on the eve of the New Year......

.....

Five days later on the first day of the first lunar month, the New Year is approaching, it is not yet noon, the most lively and prosperous street in Chang'an City, is crowded by the crowd of people who come to visit the market, the water is impassable, the people of the whole city are rushing to buy New Year's goods, the big red celebration of the New Year decorates the market is not lively.

At the junction of the lively commercial street and the people's houses, there is an inconspicuous old teahouse. The appearance of the teahouse is not only dilapidated and old, but there is not even a simple signboard, and the whole teahouse looks gray and gloomy, without the slightest atmosphere of the New Year.

There are a lot of business doors all day long, and there are very few guests who even come to drink tea, only one or two old customers will come to hang out with the old shopkeeper, idle teeth, or a few aunts who are greedy for a cheap and will come here to buy some tea, except for most of the rest of the time, only the old shopkeeper is alone in the account cabinet to broadcast abacus or sort out some miscellaneous things. The old shopkeeper was a short man with a thin face, who looked to be over sixty years old, and there were a few strands of silver hanging from his ears and temples.

Although it is the end of the year, the business of the old teahouse is still deserted.

The sun was sinking in the west, the sky was hazy and golden, and there was some moisture in the air. The old shopkeeper hung the rag over his shoulders and packed some chairs and stools in front of the store to get ready to close.

At this time, a regular sound of horses' hooves came slowly from the narrow alley behind the teahouse, and a small carriage with a simple style and a little old quietly stopped at the door of the teahouse, the carriage was not big, but it was still slightly crowded in the alley.

Two men in black cloaks and hoods tumbled down from the carriage, "Shopkeeper, don't you rest yet." A low, hoarse voice reached the old shopkeeper.

"Oh, not yet, not yet. The two guest officers don't know if it's accommodation or meals?" The old shopkeeper greeted him with a smile when he saw it.

"Let's drink tea." The man in the black cloak said.

When the old shopkeeper heard that the two of them were here to drink tea, the corners of his eyebrows rose slightly, "Tea? Dare to ask the two masters what kind of tea they want to taste?"

"I heard that the jade products here are called nobles in drinking, so I have a special taste."

"That's right, the two masters can find here, but they're really experts." The old shopkeeper glanced at the carriage behind the man and said, "The two masters also ask the carriage to be moved to the inner courtyard from the side door, where a good side room will be prepared to prepare tea for the master, and a few people will be invited to move." The old shopkeeper said very respectfully.

"I'm tired."

As soon as the carriage drove into the side door, there was no hole in the backyard of this door, and the outside of this old teahouse looked like a dilapidated tea shop, but everyone did not know that the red and purple camellia flowers bloomed in this peeling low wall, each one was the size of a palm, and it could be seen that the person who took care of it was very attentive, and the camellia trees were trimmed neatly and did not even give a branch or leaf out.

A Tsing Yi attendant who appeared out of nowhere was already standing silently at the front of the flower gallery, "The shopkeeper has come down with orders, and the four masters are invited."

The man in black driving the carriage raised his eyebrows and whispered to the car, and then two other people in the same dress got out of the car, and the waiter in Tsing Yi led them to the end of the flower gallery with a slight convincing, and stopped in front of an elegant and simple attic, and the waiter in Tsing Yi pushed open the door and invited them in.

This is a rather delicate pavilion, its delicacy does not lie in how beautiful the decoration is, but in this interior furnishings, from the cantilever beam down to the flower platform, although there is no exquisite carved decoration, but all the furniture has no trace of seams, all of which are carved with quite rare golden silk nan logs.

The smooth light of these tables and chairs reveals the unique pattern texture of the golden silk nanmu, and the whole pavilion is full of the strange fragrance of the golden silk nanmu, which also shows the low-key and exquisite of the owner.

This should be a comfortable and relaxing room, right? But there were two coffins parked in the hall.

"The four masters, please take care of yourself, and the jade will be presented later." After the Tsing Yi attendant finished speaking, he turned around and closed the door.

The two coffins with a damp smell of dampness contrasted strongly with this pavilion, and when the four of them saw the attendants withdraw, they immediately withdrew their cloaks and looked around the two coffins.

"It's not sealed." Liu Xunfeng frowned and said.

"This coffin is not the point, I heard that the body was transported back in a hurry, and I dug a few coffins in the cemetery next to it and used it." The car returned.

Liu Xunfeng asked again, "What about the original owner?"

"Eighty percent has dispersed early, look at this coffin, there are not ten years but twenty." Jiang Ji tapped his fingers on the coffin and clucked.

Feng Xin glanced at it and said, "It doesn't matter, let's open the coffin!"

The four of them brushed aside the soil that remained outside the coffin, and the lid of the coffin was lifted, and the terrible smell of the corpse quickly snorted, completely covering up the strange fragrance of Jin Sinan.

The picture inside the coffin is shocking, and it is more appropriate to put the body parts than the corpse. The corpses were incomplete, some of the gloomy white bones were clearly visible, there was still some corpse water dripping from the bottom of the coffin, the head had been separated from the torso, and the rest of the limbs were torn apart by the large joints, as if they had been torn apart by five horses.

The most important thing is that the faces of the two corpses have been slashed off by sharp blades, revealing broken teeth, he should have struggled with his own life, but unfortunately failed. Some people seem reluctant to have the identity of the body exposed, not just to dismember, but to disfigure it.

At this time, the old shopkeeper pushed the door silently and entered, only putting the tea in his hand on the round table next to the door, "Please use it slowly." He seems to be accustomed to the smell of gagging corpses.

"Wait for the shopkeeper." Feng Xin shouted to stop him.

"Yes."

Feng Xin's eyes turned to the coffin and asked, "When was this thing delivered?"

"Last night."

"What about the person who sent you?"

The old shopkeeper stared at the floor and said, "This ...... It's hard to say."

Feng Xin smiled, "Naturally."

As soon as the old shopkeeper's door closed, the eyes of the four turned back to the two corpses.

"Didn't you ask in vain? Tsk, that old guy is going to say, how did he live until now?" Jiang Qi said.

Feng Xin turned his head and glanced at the door and said, "It's hard to say, who found out when he came in?"

The four were speechless......

"If he doesn't have two hits, this shopkeeper's seat won't be hot."

Jiang Qi's jaw muscles twitched and let out a cold snort, "Hmph. Yes."

"It doesn't matter...... It doesn't matter, but do you see anything?"

"These bones are intentional." Liu Xunfeng suddenly pressed out a sentence, his eyes darkened.

Ziche also nodded: "Well, I also found that although this corpse has a very similar skin color and finger shape, it is a different person."

"That's right." Feng Xin nodded, "These two corpses belong to twelve people respectively." He said with a blank expression.
