Zhao Wuwu was thinking in his heart, when he suddenly heard movement at the staircase, and then saw Li Yu walking upstairs, with some apologies on his warm face.

"Let the two of you wait for a long time, this king met an old man who he hadn't seen for many years on the way, and after chatting a few words, he almost forgot about it!"

Li Yu waved his hand back to the salute that Zhao Wuwu had gotten up, looking at his hurried look, he must have forgotten the time after seeing the old man at first sight and having a good conversation.

Zhao Wuwu originally thought so, but when he accidentally glanced at the shoes on Li Yu's feet when he walked over, he found that the edges of his shoes had obviously been deliberately rubbed, and there were thin mud marks left at the bottom.

There is absolutely no such wetland in Shangqiu City, isn't it that Li Yu just left the city?

If it's just an ordinary trip out of the city, you have to deliberately remove the traces and lie that you met an old friend by chance, this Li Yu must want to hide something!

And after he sat down in his position, he hurriedly took a sip of tea without saying a word, indicating that he was in a hurry before the incident, and he didn't even have time to rest.

Yun Yi saw that Zhao Wuwu was distracted there, thinking that he was still worrying about the case of the previous Xiunu, so he deliberately coughed lightly and said, "Sixth prince, Zhao Gongzi is waiting for you to answer your questions!"

Zhao Wuwu hurriedly retracted his thoughts, got up and said respectfully: "King Yu, there are indeed some questions I want to ask for advice about my humble position, that is, about Lotus Village and Chixia Peak......

Speaking of this, Li Yu suddenly raised his head and interrupted him, and said contemplatively: "What you want to say is that the dozens of corpses that were collectively buried in Lotus Village, right?"

Zhao Wuwu was naturally a little surprised when he heard this, but then he also figured it out, after all, with such a big case, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will sue the government, maybe the top will already know about it at this time.

Sure enough, after seeing him nod, Li Yu said: "The day before yesterday, we received a complaint from the villagers of Lianhua Village, saying that a murderer deliberately planned to kill dozens of people.

With such a big case, this king naturally has to deal with it personally, and he has been investigating clues in the lotus village for two days in a row, but how do you know about that case?"

Zhao Wuwu originally planned to report truthfully, but now he doesn't think that this Li Yu is a reliable person, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable, which will inevitably cause unnecessary suspicion, and now he can only find an excuse to avoid it.

"Oh, I heard some rumors when I went to explore the road before, but because I wasn't sure about the truth, I wanted to come back and report to you, the prince. ”

"I see...... The case in Lotus Village really needs to be investigated, otherwise if there are really bad people on the road, it is hard to guarantee that someone did not deliberately set up a trap here in order to grab the map!"

After Li Yu finished telling his guess, his face suddenly became a little solemn, and after several entanglements, he decided to say another bold idea.

"Actually, this king heard some rumors from those villagers in the village, although most of them are rumors and cannot be trusted, but the rumors about corpses do not seem to be rumors. ”

Zhao Wuwu remembered that he had heard rumors about this corpse man from the people in the city on the street before, but he only thought it was a rumor in the market and didn't pay much attention to it.

But right now, seeing that Li Yu didn't seem to have any doubts about himself, he also followed his topic and asked.

"Seeing that the prince is so determined, I don't know what he knows?"

As if he suddenly recalled the past, Li Yu nodded seriously but did not elaborate, but just prevaricated a few words casually.

"It's just that when I was a child, I heard some personal experiences of my elders, and this kind of corpse seems to be a kind of witchcraft on the Xishu side, so this king suspects that there may be people from Xishu who have mixed into our Beili and want to find some treasures in this Chixia Peak.

I heard that the Chixia Peak is rich in vegetation and is a blessed and beautiful place, and there have been treasures in the mountains for hundreds of years, and those who sneak in are here for this treasure!"

Treasures, like something in the underworld, Zhao Wuwu couldn't help but think about the twelve artifacts that Shen Yan's master had mentioned before, maybe this treasure was one of the artifacts.

Could it be that the crazy looking bad old man is actually telling the truth?
