Preface:

Heaven and earth first opened, and the world was in chaos.

Later, the three worlds of gods, demons, and demons gradually stood side by side and fought with each other, and the human beings created by Nuwa were despised by demons, they were weak and short-lived, and were brutally killed by demons for several years.

In order to protect human beings from infringement, Nuwa took them to a vast land, surrounded them with twelve artifacts left over from ancient times, and sent twelve guardian gods to guard all directions, forming a layer of powerful shields that demons could not enter.

However, some demons have been lurking in the human world for a long time, cultivating an aura and appearance similar to that of humans, and they have been brought to this continent at the same time. Fortunately, the suppression of the shield prevents them from using any mana, but they can live forever.

At this time, there are always some demons who can't help but be lonely, and they carefully plan and secretly plan to break through this barrier to achieve their own goals. At the same time, there is also a mysterious force that gradually rises, intending to use these weak humans to rule the entire world.

As a result, the tranquility of the Cloud Peak Continent for more than 300 years has finally moved towards a dark and confused future step by step in this seemingly prosperous and prosperous world!

Body:

It's the rainy season again, and the night rain pours down until late at night.

In the inner courtyard of the palace, after the patrolling guards carried lanterns and walked by, suddenly a figure flew up to the eaves and quietly sneaked into the emperor's bedroom.

Now was the time to act, she got up and flew up with her knife and struck her on the bed. But there seemed to be something strange under the quilt, and when she opened it, there was no one inside.

At this moment, a chill came up behind her, and she quickly dodged sideways, but she was still hit by a sword in the shoulder because she couldn't react. Seeing that the situation was not good, she rolled over and broke out of the window, but the person behind didn't seem to want to give up, and jumped out and followed her closely.

Although the assassin's light skills were good, after all, he was injured, and before he could get out of the palace wall, he was chased by the people behind her, so she could only fight back hard, and inherit all his tricks.

"Who are you, and why do you want to put me to death?"

Li Yunxiao intercepted her and reached out to tear off her veil. Unfortunately, the sky was too dark, and it was rainy, so I could only faintly see that she was a woman with a good face.

It was a good opportunity to wander, and the woman took the opportunity to knock him off the arm, slapped him back three steps, and then turned and disappeared over the wall into the rainy night.

In the dark and damp cell, a middle-aged woman leaned against the corner of the wall with her hair disheveled, and the rain flew in through the window and wet her hair. Even after the vicissitudes of time, some wrinkles have crept up on her face, but you can still see that she was smiling and beautiful when she was young.

She looked out the window, wondering what she saw, and suddenly smiled strangely.

In the middle of the night, I suddenly thought it was haunted, and the jailer on duty saw a sentence in his heart, yawned and fell asleep on the table. It didn't take long for him to hear movement outside, no wonder the woman kept staring out the window, that angle was just enough to see outside, and someone came to visit the prison in the middle of the night!

"It's been the middle of the night...... Who ......" The jailer didn't scream yet, and when he saw the person coming, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty...... The subordinates deserve death, I don't know if the emperor came to ......"

Li Yunxiao waved his hand with a cold face to signal him to retreat, and the jailer quickly kowtowed to thank him when he saw this, and then crawled out.

The woman in the prison here looked up at him and asked unhurriedly, "Yo, what kind of wind is blowing today that brought your big Buddha?"

Li Yunxiao looked at her unfazed expression, so he didn't bother to bend around with her, he said, "Someone wants my life tonight." ”

When the woman heard him say this, she was stunned for a second, and then she couldn't help laughing.

"Could it be that you think I flew out to kill you, so you came to question me?"

"In this huge palace, aren't you the only one who hates me the most? Dugu Yun, how many secrets are you hiding behind your back?"

The woman named Dugu Yun stood up when she heard the voice, and slowly walked to Li Yunxiao, she leaned into his ear and whispered: "If you have the ability, you will kill me, if you kill me, maybe I will tell you in the next life!"

He looked at her haughty appearance, and couldn't help but clench his fists under his sleeves. Obviously, the anger in his body was almost to the extreme, but he still endured it, he didn't believe that all kinds of conspiracies in the past could be planned by her as a woman. Sooner or later, he will find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and then cut them all with a thousand knives, and then divide the corpses of five horses to avenge the murder of his mother!

The next day, before dawn, the streets of Suzaku were empty.

A horse-drawn carriage sped along the wet road, and something was thrown out of the car and rolled to the ground, making it stand out in the empty streets.

As more and more people came and went on the street, and the people who came to see the excitement gathered more and more, they gathered in a circle, and they began to guess what was inside the black cloth bag.

One of the sugar gourd sellers took a closer look, and seemed to smell a strange smell coming from the bag, and his face turned pale for a moment, and he trembled and said, "This ...... It's not going to be a corpse, is it?"

Originally, a group of people who were just watching the excitement heard the word 'corpse', and they were all frightened and fled as if they were electrocuted.

Fortunately, some clever people went to Xiping Mansion to report the case, and the inspection team quickly rushed over and surrounded the scene.

The one who took the lead was called Zhao Wuwu, and there should be few people in the entire Shangqiu City who didn't know his name, especially those women.

Different from other officials, he is dressed in white and wins snow, under the sword eyebrows, his narrow eyes are like gurgling spring water, warm and moist like a spring breeze.

Of course, it is not only his looks that can make a woman fall in love, but also his illustrious family and outstanding talents. So people said that he was willing to stay in Xiping Mansion to be a small official leader, and to put it bluntly, he came to judge the case.

In fact, only he knows the real situation, in his eyes, the case of a human death is bigger than the sky, so there is only one case that can make him show up, and that is a murder case.

He fastened his veil, wrapped his hands in white cloth, and carefully cut the bag open with a short knife. The people around him, who were hiding behind the pillars or who were stopped by officials, even if they were afraid, stretched their necks and half-covered their eyes to find out.

The bag was slowly opened, and an unbearable stench filled the air, apparently containing a corpse. The woman who had died looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, her face was covered with scars, her eyes were wide open, and her mouth was slightly open, as if she had seen something very terrifying before she died.

"Although there were bruises all over the deceased's body, it was not clear where the fatal injuries were. Judging from the distribution of corpse spots, it has been nearly two days since the death, and the corpse has already shown signs of decomposition, so it should be brought back as soon as possible for a detailed examination. ”

The three or two officials on the side carried the body away, Zhao Wuwu got up and walked to Zhou Yong, slowly wiped his hands with a sweat towel, and said, "You go and check to see if anyone has reported the disappearance of the woman recently." ”

As soon as the servants here carried the corpse into Xiping Mansion, Lord Yin Cao ran out of it in a hurry, and almost lost his breath when he saw the corpse. He sat on the ground in one breath, and his two little mustaches were about to stand up, and he couldn't even speak very well.

"This ...... Why is there a dead man all of a sudden......?

Cao Fuyin's heart is dripping blood, seeing that most of the half year is about to pass, it is clear that the front of taking office is peaceful and harmonious, this case has just entered the middle of summer, and it is still a big case with personal life at stake!

If this case can't be solved, not only will you not be able to get the extra money at the end of the year, maybe the emperor will blame him if he knows it, and he can't keep a black gauze hat, and he will have to take the risk of killing his head!
