Chapter 270: Heavy Relief
The mourning shed made of wooden and bamboo poles had been completely blown up, and the coffin had been blown to the ground, and the body inside had been thrown in half.
Look at the many internal guards wailing in pain in the ruins, miserable and in disarray.
"Hou Zhen, Li Xing!"
Zhao Yu was in a hurry, hurriedly rummaged through, and soon found Hou Zhen from the wreckage.
But seeing that half of Hou Zhen's face had been injured, the entire left half of his body was a mixture of blood and dust, and he himself had passed out from the explosion.
"This ......"
Xu Zun saw that there was a bloody person lying next to Hou Zhen, who was Li Ren, the Duke of Lushan.
But seeing that Li Ren was motionless, it seemed that there were no vital signs.
However, when Xu Zun went to probe his nose, he unexpectedly found that Li Ren was still breathing.
Alive...... Still alive......
Xu Zun wanted to call, but when he glanced around, he suddenly sensed the danger, so he shook his head regretfully, indicating that Li Ren was dead.
"This ...... This ......" Cai Kun was dumbfounded on the spot and muttered, "This is impossible?" How many times has this place been searched, and where did the explosives come from? ”
"Your Excellency......" At this time, an internal guard who had been guarding outside the spiritual shed stepped forward to report, "When several internal guards came out with the suspect just now, a box containing shrouds suddenly exploded!"
"Right ......," he pointed to where the coffin had been placed, "it was pressed under this coffin, and without the slightest warning, it exploded very suddenly!" ”
"Quick...... Save people......" Cai Kun looked at the internal guards who were moaning in pain, and hurriedly ordered people to go to the rescue.
At this time, Xu Zun and Zhao Yu had already found Li Xing, perhaps Li Xing was far away from the explosion point, he just scratched his scalp, and there was no big problem.
"My lord, it's blown up, it's blown up!" Li Xing pointed to the location of the coffin and said, "There are explosives!" ”
"Li Xing......" Xu Zun looked at the location of the coffin and asked, "Who was holding Li Ren just now?" ”
"It was Hou Zhen and another internal guard," Li Xing said, "I was in front at the time, and I didn't notice anything. ”
"Won't it?" Zhao Yu frowned, "The explosives need to ignite the fuse, didn't you hear any abnormal noise?" ”
"No," Li Xing clarified, "there was no warning before!" ”
"Then ......," Xu Zun asked again, "Do you remember, who has ever been close to the explosion point?" ”
"This ......," Li Xing pointed to others, "We all came up from below, if you want to know who has approached there, you have to ask the guards above......"
"......Hurry up" At this time, Cai Kun remembered something, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates, "Hurry up and take a look at Li Ren's family, take them all out first, don't be bombed again!"
"By the way, there's ...... And that son-in-law! ”
"Yes!" A squad of internal guards immediately rushed to the front hall.
"Your Excellency...... What's going on? ”
Ah Xiu Tsai suddenly came to the front, because he was injured, he had been in charge of guarding Li Ren's son-in-law, and when he heard the explosion, he rushed over, and was immediately stupid on the spot.
"Huh? Old Hou ...... "Ah Xiu Zai hurriedly ran to Hou Zhen's side to check.
"My lord," Zhao Yu had no idea and asked Xu Zun, "What can I do about this?" Isn't it...... Among our people, there are ......"
Hearing this, Xu Zun immediately held down Zhao Yu and asked him not to talk nonsense.
Xu Zun looked at Cai Kun and observed Cai Kun's subtle expression.
However, Cai Kun was already a master of the six gods, and he even forgot to go to see Li Ren's life and death.
"Lord Cai......" At this time, Xu Zun suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly reminded Cai Kun, "Hurry up and see, is there anything wrong with Bi Sheng!" ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Cai Kun was startled again, so he hurriedly sent someone to investigate......
……
Half an hour later, all the internal guards who were injured in the explosion were sent back to the internal guard office for medical treatment.
Others escorted Li Ren's family and servants to the Interior Guard Mansion for trial.
The case was serious, and the internal guards were already seriously understaffed, but Cai Kun still insisted on not asking the Three Law Divisions or the Divine Arrest Division to help.
Hou Zhen was seriously injured, but he did not hurt his life.
Fortunately, all the internal guards who were bombed at the scene were only injured to varying degrees, and no one lost their lives.
It seems that the power of the explosives is not as great as imagined.
As for Li Ren, at present, only Xu Zun and Zhao Yu know that Li Ren is not dead, including Cai Kun, and only think that Li Ren is the only person who died in this explosion.
At this moment, Zhao Yu covered Li Ren with a white cloth, preparing to carry the person away with Ah Xiu Zai later.
"Fortunately......" Zhao Yu said fearfully, "There are not many explosives here, and they are placed outside, otherwise...... We won't be able to get out! ”
Xu Zun didn't take a stubble, but was seriously thinking about something.
In Xu Zun's opinion, there was no one else in the spirit shed at that time, so the explosives must have been placed by the internal guard, and some were detonated by the internal guard.
It's just that I don't know when it was placed or how it was detonated.
More importantly, who will this inner ghost be?
Hou Zhen seems to be able to rule out suspicion, because he is escorting Li Ren, and it is impossible to detonate explosives while escorting the criminals.
So...... Who is this person?
Why did he want to blow up Li Ren?
It stands to reason that with Li Ren's arrest, even if there are still remnants of the party that have not been exposed, they should be thinking about how to evacuate, right?
But why do you have to risk blowing up Li Ren to death?
Why?
Xu Zun was very curious, because he was keenly aware that the person who detonated the explosives might not be the Xuanmen remnants, but someone else!
Because this explosion came in an unusually hasty manner, it even seemed to be a temporary idea, but if it was a temporary intention, where did the explosives come from?
Call......
The more Xu Zun thought about it, the more he felt a chill behind him, as if he had fallen into a bottomless quagmire.
"My lord......" Zhao Yu pointed to the entrance under the coffin and asked, "Do we want to go down and check it now?" ”
Examine......
Or don't check it?
By now, Xu Zun had already felt a great sense of crisis.
It stands to reason that there are many rooms in the underground hall just now, where Li Ren's evidence may be stored.
However, now Xu Zun is in no mood.
He remembered what Li Ren had said to him before, once he knew his hatred, maybe he would not be far from death!
"You're still too young to understand the sinister ...... of this court."
Suddenly, many images flashed in Xu Zun's mind:
Bi Sheng's arrest......
Empress Dowager Lin walked out of the secret room of the main hall of Wanfu Palace......
Lin Chaofeng ordered a killing spree......
And also...... In the flower garden, he once had a face-to-face with Qian Qifeng, the prime minister of the current dynasty, and the eyes of the prime minister seemed to be wrong......
Later, there are all the things that Qi Xiang'er said, and Li Ren's insistence that he is the Xuanmen Tianzun......
All of this seems to have some kind of hidden connection.
Now, with Li Ren being blown up, is everything going to disappear?
"My lord, my lord......" Zhao Yu saw that Xu Zun was silent, and urged, "If you are worried, then let me go down and take a look!" ”
"No need!" Xu Zun suddenly retracted his thoughts, and with a heavy sense of relief in his heart, he immediately said to Zhao Yu, "These are not important!" We...... Let's go back first......"
