072, the mountain rain is coming

The sun was slanting in the west, the sound of horses' hooves was slow, and the merchant team of servants returned to the walled city.

"Welcome to the owner of the village!"

On the avenue of entering the walled city, the young men of the guards stood on both sides to greet him, only to see Shi Longwu's majestic and burly body sitting on a tall horse, carrying a cold and shining horse chopping sword, looking at the wolf with eagle eyes, like a lion king who has returned to his territory.

Behind him, about ten martial arts masters and young men were also riding horses, driving carts full of goods and goods, although they were in the wind, but their faces showed a happy smile.

Outbound travelers are not tourists. In today's world, evil breeds in the wilderness, poor mountains and bad waters, and is strange and hidden, and unpredictable dangers are often encountered on such a distant journey, and attrition is a common thing. Now that they can come back safe and sound, they naturally breathe a long sigh of relief.

"Owner, you're back!"

And just when they had just entered the walled city, Ning Kun, who learned the news, also rushed over with a lot of people as soon as possible, and walked up quickly with a solemn face, bowing and saluting:

"Did your trip go well?"

"Not bad. Although there were a few twists and turns, the goal was finally achieved. ”

Shi Longwu, who was on the tall horse, nodded casually, and casually ordered:

"Second brother, arrange manpower for them to unload materials such as oil, salt, tea cloth and other materials to the warehouse, and send other things to my mansion!"

"Yes!"

Ning Kun agreed repeatedly, and hurriedly arranged manpower, replaced the good hands and young men of the caravan, and drove the carriage full of supplies towards the walled city.

At the same time, Shi Longwu also dismounted and moved his hands and feet, and asked people to send their horses and knives back to the house.

"Second child, why is it only you, the third child?"

But then, he glanced at the crowd and suddenly found something:

"Knowing that I came back, I haven't come to greet me until now, are you putting up a fight with me?"

In the past, when he returned to the city as a foreign businessman, the first to get the news and the most eager to come out to greet him must be Wei Tijun, who is the third master.

But until now, he has not seen Wei Tiejun, which is undoubtedly a bit strange.

When it came to this topic, Ning Kun and Lin Dashan, who was accompanying him, all shook their eyelids and looked at each other.

Well?

Immediately feeling that the atmosphere was wrong, Shi Longwu frowned, and looked at Ning Kun for the first time:

"What kind of expression do you have? In the past few days since I was away, what happened in the village?"

The paper couldn't hold the fire, Ning Kun hesitated, took a step forward, gritted his teeth and said:

"Back to the village master, during your absence, something big happened in the village owner, the third one...... He's dead. ”

He's dead?

Shi Longwu's pupils shrank slightly, and his calm and dark gaze like an abyss swept over Ning Kun and the people around him:

"Dick, are you kidding me?"

Shi Longwu's gaze swept like a knife in the cold wind, blowing straight into the bottom of people's hearts, causing a chill to rise in the hearts of Ning Kun and everyone around him for no reason.

Rao is Ning Kun is also a master of dirty practice, and he also felt as if he was being targeted by some top predator, he was furious, and suddenly said astringently:

"Back to the master, this matter is true. On the night after you left, the second child was assassinated and killed in his bedroom. According to the traces of the scene, I suspect that the murderer is a martial arts master who has also reached the level of cultivation, but no matter how I investigate these days, I have never found this hidden master in the walled city......"

Before he finished his words, a fierce evil aura rushed to his face, and he saw Shi Longwu's expression gloomy, and with a wave of his big hand, he directly interrupted:

"Take me there at once!"

"Yes!"

Ning Kun's face trembled, and he immediately agreed, and then led the way to Wei Tiejun's mansion first.

The mansion at the scene of the murder had been locked down, and Shi Longwu's expression was cold, and he drove straight into the bedroom where Wei Tiejun died in the hurried salute of all the young and strong.

I saw that on the bed, it was still the same, and in the strong and pungent smell, two broken corpses sprinkled with lime were still quietly placed there, looking particularly eerie and terrifying.

Shi Longwu stepped forward silently, staring at the hideous corpses on the bed.

Although Shi Longwu did not show any rage, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, his whole person was like a volcano about to erupt, bringing an incomparable feeling of oppression and danger to their hearts.

"The owner of the village, this is the scene when the third child died. ”

Ning Kun smiled wryly:

"This matter is too strange, and I am the first suspect if it is strictly investigated, so I can only protect the situation at the scene in this way, and wait for you to come back and investigate. ”

Lin Dashan, as well as the two night patrol team leaders who also witnessed the scene that night, also cautiously agreed:

"The owner of the village, the second master is right, this scene is the same as that night, except for the lime to prevent the corpse from decomposing, nothing else has been touched. ”

"In addition, the family members of the three masters have been brought over, and they are all waiting in another room, waiting for you to ask at any time. ”

Shi Longwu didn't speak, just looked at Ning Kun expressionlessly for a long time, and then leaned down and began to examine the wounds and broken bones of the pile of corpses at close range.

Although the wounds of the flesh and blood had become shriveled and shrunken due to the passage of water and blood, all the broken bones of the corpse were smooth and flat, as if they had been directly cut by some extremely sharp knife soldier at a speed as fast as thunder.

"Crisp and neat, with a knife and a belt, directly kill two people......"

He looked at it, and suddenly laughed lowly:

"What a fierce knife and strength, such a sharp knife soldier...... Second brother, is there anyone else in this walled city who can do it besides you?"

Ning Kun was suddenly startled, and hurriedly said:

"The owner of the village, this matter is definitely not my doing! Although I have occasional friction with the third child, on the whole, the well water does not interfere with the river water, I have no reason to take this risk, nor can I be stupid enough to kill him personally! This matter can be seen from the sky, if there is half a lie to coax the owner of the village, I would rather Kun be split by the five-horse carriage and die!"

"Don't worry, I know it's not you, although your knife skills are good, but they are still a little worse than those who do it. ”

Shi Longwu restrained his low chuckle of implicit anger and muttered to himself:

"Killing two people with one knife, this style of knife technique is extraordinary, I can't imagine that in my walled city, there is such a master who is still silently hidden......"

Hearing this, Shi Longwu's heart was already wet with cold sweat at the glance just now, but his heart was relieved.

This village owner is ruthless and suspicious, Wei Tiejun's death is too strange, and he is also in the dirty realm, so he is likely to be regarded as the biggest object of suspicion.

It was precisely because of this that he did not dare to dispose of the corpses of Wei Tiejun and his concubine, but sprinkled lime to keep it, so as not to let the yellow mud fall into the crotch of his pants, which was not but also.

And now it seems that his handling has had some effect.

At this time, it seemed that something had been seen from the corpse, and Shi Longwu said expressionlessly:

"Whenever there is a cause and effect, tell me, what happened on the day the third child died, and how did you investigate?"

Ning Kun didn't dare to hide it, from Wei Tiejun's detention of Song's sister-in-law's mother and son in the name of stealing melons and fruits, to Song Yuan's serious injury by Wei Tiejun, who almost cut open her child's abdomen to reveal her grievances, and Wei Tiejun's sudden assassination at night, and the various investigations of himself and others over the past few days, etc., were all described in detail in detail.

"The murderer is hidden so deep that you don't have a clue for so many days?"

Naturally, he had some impressions of Song Yuan, and after listening to it, Shi Longwu's eyes suddenly narrowed:

"The third child just finished disposing of Song Yuan's family, and he was killed at night, it's really a coincidence, didn't you start from this side?"

Ning Kun said in a low voice:

"We also felt a little strange about this matter at the time, and we went to find Song Yuan as soon as possible, but this person was seriously injured at the time, and he was completely unaware of this, so we couldn't conclude that he had something to do with it. We think it may also be that the murderer has long had a grudge against the third child, and has been hiding himself with his teeth and claws, but he happened to encounter this incident, and he sneaked in at night to assassinate the third child. ”

"Okay, okay, fight in my walled city?"

Shi Longwu's eyes flickered, revealing an inexplicable danger in his extreme coldness:

"It's a bit interesting, then let me come and see in person, who will be this hero who pulls out his sword to help when he sees injustice? Go find that Song Yuan, and all the people involved, I will interrogate it myself!"
