Chapter Forty-Eight: Just a Coincidence
It's time to hold the lights, and night has fallen.
This night is destined to be another unquiet night in Bazhou.
The woods outside Bazhou City seem to have become the main theme of tonight.
Just after one wave of people left the woods, after a while, another wave of people came to explore the woods.
This time there were a little more people, including some sergeants in armor and some people in sword pavilion clothes, who flocked to the woods.
After they searched the location of the corpse, a sergeant immediately took out something like a firecracker, and when it was pulled, a firework-like light shot into the sky, illuminating the dark forest.
Searching for this signal, the people around him gathered here like ants.
At this time, an old man, accompanied by a general, quickly rushed to the scene, and after seeing the corpses, the middle-aged general said: "Luo Ge Lao, these people are the bandits who robbed the escort team from Xiazhou in the Sword Pavilion, it seems that they have been killed!"
"Ah Liang, order someone to immediately block the perimeter of the woods, don't let go of any clues, the old man must find out, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, dare to rob the escort of the Sword Pavilion!"
This old man is the deputy elder of the Sword Pavilion, Luo Xiongchuan's grandfather, Luo Ziang, the general beside him, from Zhao Tieliang, the garrison general of the Bazhou Mansion, the escort of the Sword Pavilion was hijacked this time, it is undoubtedly a big case, and the government naturally has to vigorously assist the Sword Pavilion to solve the case.
After Zhao Tieliang gave the order, his own soldiers carried it out, at this time he squatted down, and after carefully examining the corpse of the bandit boss, he said: "The wounds of the corpse are pierced from the back, and the corpse has traces of being cut by the Gang sword, the other party is at least a seventh-level swordsman, but the tip of this sword has blood stains, which is a little strange, it is said that after the sword pierces the chest, the tip of the sword will not be stained with blood!"
Luo Ziang glanced at the corpse a few times, raised his eyebrows, and said: "This bandit's whole body blood was shattered by the sword gang, obviously using the sword technique that died with the enemy, and in this case, the back was also pierced by the sword, there must be a third person behind to launch a killing blow, which means that this person must have restrained a person before he died, but why is this person gone?"
At this moment, a soldier came to report: "Report to Commander Zhao, all the corpses have been counted, the four bandits who escaped were all killed, and some scattered red gold was found at the scene, as well as the baggage on the bandits, but there was no important lost property that was robbed of the Sword Pavilion!"
"Can the cause of death be ascertained?" Zhao Tieliang said.
"The corpses all have traces of being attacked by Jian Gang, and they are killed with one sword, at least a swordsman above level seven can do it!"
"Report to the Commander!"
At this moment, another soldier hurried over and said, "Commander, I found some red gold not far away, and there is also a sword!"
Hearing this, Luo Ziang suddenly turned around and said, "Where is the sword, show it to the old man?"
After the soldier presented the sword, Luo Ziang just glanced at it, and immediately a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and his voice was extremely gloomy, and said, "How did you find this sword?"
The soldier said: "Elder Yuluoge, this sword was thrown behind a tree at random, and the murderer should have thrown it away for fear of being traced to the clues!"
"If you can kill a seventh-level swordsman, and do things so meticulously, you must be a veteran master!"
Zhao Tieliang said again: "Moreover, the remaining four robbers were all killed, obviously the mastermind behind the murder and extermination, judging from the traces of this scene, there must be someone who came here before us after the crime, and left in a hurry, and there was no time to clean up the traces, so it is certain that this is definitely the place where the robbers and the mastermind contacted!"
However, Luo Ziang's gloomy old face at this time was even more gloomy, darker than the bottom of the pot, but he thought in his heart: "A swordsman, it is impossible to discard the sword he carries to arouse suspicion, unless there is an accident and the owner of the sword dies, the sword will naturally be discarded, but this does not rule out that the owner of the sword participated in the hijacking, and when the mouth was extinguished, there was a coincidence that Huang Que was behind, but who killed him, where did the body go, and where did the thing go?"
Who would have thought that the drama of this yellow finch in the back was just a coincidence!
......
The night is like water, and the stars are shining.
When darkness covers the land, the town of Silverleaf is quiet, with the occasional sound of poultry and dogs barking.
In the lonely courtyard outside the town, dim oil lamps lit up, reflecting two still shadows, swaying in the room.
At this time, a figure, suddenly like a ghost, appeared near the Baicao Garden outside the courtyard, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the people in the house, and a cold voice came out: "Who!"
Knock knock!
After a knock on the door, the door of the small courtyard was opened.
After Gu Menghan opened the door, those bright eyes sparkled in the night, a cold light flashed, glanced at the visitor, and saw that it was Nie Lin, so he said lightly: "Come in and talk about it!"
After Nie Lin entered the house, Gu Zhiqiu was a little surprised, but when he saw that he was in rags, his skin and flesh were injured, and he had already formed scars, he said: "This is an injury by Jian Gang, it's just a flesh injury, Han'er, you can rub some medicine on him!"
Gu Menghan walked to the side of the small cabinet, took out a porcelain bottle, and put it on the table at will, still in that cold tone: "Wipe it yourself!"
Nie Lin didn't look at the bottle, he took out three cat fruits and put them on the table, and took out a silver leaf mouse that was still alive from a knot in the trouser tube, and said, "This is what you want, I want the flower seeds that Mr. needs!"
Gu Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, shook his head and said: "You kid, why are you so persistent, the old body thought that it was getting late, and you would go back to the academy directly, but I didn't expect you to come back again, and you were still injured, this is not an old body!"
"Take your clothes off!"
Gu Menghan picked up the porcelain vase and walked over at this time, looking directly at Nie Lin.
Nie Lin didn't look at her, but still looked at Gu Zhiqiu: "I want seeds, it's late at night, please don't shirk Senior Gu!"
"I told you to take off your clothes, did you hear that!" Gu Menghan found that he was ignored, his eyes were sharp, and his tone was even colder, completely commanding.
Nie Lin continued to ignore her, still glaring at Gu Zhiqiu.
Seeing Nie Lin's appearance, Gu Zhiqiu shook his head and said, "That's it, Han'er, you go and fetch it for him!"
"I don't!" Gu Menghan was also very stubborn, still looking directly at Nie Lin, seeing that Nie Lin was indifferent, he simply put down the bottle, walked up and stepped forward, about to tear off Nie Lin's clothes.
Nie Lin turned his hand to catch the dragon, Gu Menghan's wrist shook, slid over, and then grabbed it back, the technique was also more exquisite, and his fingertips were together, and he clamped Nie Lin's sleeve.
Tear it up!
A tearing sound sounded, and Nie Lin's sleeves were torn off, revealing his strong shoulders.
And Gu Menghan's other hand, which was as fast as lightning at this time, reached out and grabbed Nie Lin's neck, but Nie Lin's reaction was fast enough, and before Gu Menghan's plain hand arrived, it was another dragon grabber, grabbing her wrist, and when Gu Menghan was unprepared, the other hand went straight to her throat.
Gu Menghan didn't expect Nie Lin's technique to be so exquisite, their silent duel, although there was no sword, but the difference in strength determined that Nie Lin would not be able to take advantage of Gu Menghan.
If he used a sword, Nie Lin would only have to escape.
Theory and practice are two different things, although Nie Lin is full of cultivation exercises and a large amount of valuable experience, but to implement it, it still requires supporting skills.
He has not yet reached the foundation that a swordsman or a sword master has, his body is just level with the consciousness and reflection of ordinary swordsmen, facing Gu Menghan, who is a seventh-level swordsman with strength, his exquisite 'Green Dragon Probe', before he reached Gu Menghan's throat, he was stillborn, and was pinched by Gu Menghan's white fat jade hand.
It's just that after Nie Lin's wrist was pinched, suddenly that finger stretched out violently, and shook it open with the same technique used by Gu Menghan before, when Gu Menghan dodged, on one side of his face, Nie Lin's fingertips caught her black veil, Gu Menghan turned his face, and he didn't want the black veil to fall off suddenly.
Gu Menghan was stunned.
And Gu Zhiqiu, who was watching the two of them fight with interest on the side, saw this sudden scene, the smile on his face froze, and he was also stunned.
......
