Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 184 Suspicion
As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked.
Two more centurions were killed.
Although he didn't care about the life or death of the Black Dragon Guard, Nangong Mountain's face was also pale at this time.
Even if the Beishan garrison is allowed to enter the city ya, the Qiancheng Pavilion will still have a way to throw the corpse into the city yahu.
Qiancheng Pavilion, your ability is really not small. He said secretly in his heart.
"Someone, go and call Xiao Wuji, and also, send the city government to the city." Nangong Shan ordered.
Although after Lu Yongqing's incident, the city was occupied by soldiers.
But there will be no guards in the lake, which is easy for Zhao Qiancheng to quietly put the two corpses in.
He arrived first, and after saluting Nangong Mountain, he immediately leaned over to check.
After the tea, he said, "Lord Qi, the cause of death of the two of them was that their sternums were broken, their hearts were broken, and they were thrown into the lake after death."
The cause of death can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, and what Nangong Shan wants to know is not this.
"It stands to reason that when the dead bodies enter the water, they should be floating, why did these two bodies sink in the lake beforehand and only float up now?"
He voiced his doubts.
"Lord Wang, please take a look."
He pointed to the waists of the two corpses, where a rope was tied to each of them.
"Rope?" Lin Tianchong was puzzled.
"Yes, there was a knot at one end of the rope, it was supposed to be tied to something, and now it's gone, and the body is floating."
He replied.
Hearing this, Lin Tian rushed forward, picked up one end of the rope and put it in front of his nose and sniffed it.
"It smells fishy."
Seeing this, Li Feibai came out and explained, "It should be fish feed!"
On such occasions, it is always illogical for him not to express some opinions.
"Fish?" Nangong Shan didn't react for a while.
"Not bad. The people of the Thousand City Pavilion tied a heavy fish feed to one end of the rope and pulled the corpse into the lake. When the fish is eaten up, the carcass will naturally float up." Li Feibai explained.
"What are they trying to do with all this painstaking effort?"
What else can you do?
It's just a naked show off to you the strength of the Thousand Cities Pavilion, so that you can be frightened, so that you can gain a favorable position in the negotiations.
Of course, Li Feibai did not say this sentence.
At this time, Xiao Wuji also hurriedly came to the scene.
Before he could salute Nangong Mountain, he squatted down and checked the two corpses.
"Centurions of the second and third teams!" Xiao Wuji popped out these words from his mouth.
He slowly stood up, his fists clenched, his bones rattling slightly.
"Commander Xiao? What did you say yesterday?" Nangong Shan's words were full of provocation.
"No way, absolutely impossible!" Xiao Wuji was full of anger, and his blood seemed to be burning.
With his own carefully arranged latent plan, how could the other party find out the identities of these centurions so quickly and kill them?
If Lu Yongqing's death, Xiao Wuji felt that it was an accident, then the death of these two centurions, if he hadn't found anything abnormal, would have covered his ears and stole the bell.
"What can't be? With two corpses in front of you, are you still convinced that your strategy works?"
Slowly turning around and clasping his fist towards Nangong Mountain, Xiao Wuji did not answer positively, but said, "Lord Wang, in just four days, three centurions died, don't you think something is wrong?"
"Strange? What's the difference?" Nangong Shan asked.
"I suspect that the identities of these twenty centurions have been leaked to the Thousand Cities Pavilion!"
Hearing him say this, Nangong Shan also became cautious: "You mean to say that there are traitors among us?"
"Yes, otherwise it's hard to explain all this. These three centurions, whose cultivation is all at the Xuan Level, have rich experience in combat, if it weren't for the fact that their identities were revealed, how could they be killed silently?" Xiao Wuji replied.
"The only people who know the identities of these twenty centurions are you and me, Tian Chong, Fugui, Fei Li, and Yu Guangli. So, you doubt one of us?" Nangong Shan asked rhetorically.
Xiao Wuji didn't answer, thinking quickly in his mind.
Suddenly, a glint appeared in his eyes, and he blurted out three words: "Chen Erzhi!"
"Chen Erzhi? What do you mean?" Nangong Shan asked again.
"Lord Wang, Chen Erzhi is a person from the Thousand Cities Pavilion, and he has been to the city office!" Xiao Wuji's voice was a little excited, as if he had touched the truth.
"Is that the one who detoxified me and is now being shown to the public by the head of the owl?" Li Feibai took the initiative to speak.
"Yes, it's him, it must be him." Xiao Wuji replied categorically.
"You mean, when he entered the city, our traitors passed the information to him?" Lin Tianchong understood what he meant.
"It must be so."
Hearing this, although Nangong Shan began to be dissatisfied with Xiao Wuji again, he had to admit that his analysis was reasonable.
"However, he was brought in by our guards, and he didn't come into contact with anyone along the way, so how did he get the information?" Lin Tianchong asked again.
At this time, Xiao Wuji suddenly thought of something, was shocked, and looked at Li Feibai.
Pretending to be puzzled, Li Feibai asked, "Commander Xiao, why are you looking at me like this?"
"With all due respect, Chen Erzhi entered the city office, and it seems that he has only been in contact with you, Brother Bai?"
"This ......" Li Feibai looked innocent, pretending to be speechless.
"Xiao Wuji, you suspect Fei Li, you have to come up with evidence!" Nangong Shan narrowed his eyes, extremely dissatisfied in his heart.
He didn't have the slightest suspicion about Li Feibai now.
Lowering his head, Xiao Wuji could only say, "I don't have any evidence, just speculation."
"Commander Xiao, I think you're suspicious. When Chen Erzhi detoxified Brother Bai, he was unconscious throughout the whole process, how could he pass on the information?"
The reason why Li Feibai did not take the initiative to explain was to let others speak more convincingly.
This is also the reason why when Chen Erzhi was healing him, Li Feibai had already woken up, but insisted on pretending to be in a continuous coma.
This can greatly eliminate one's own suspicion.
"Yes, at that time, this king and Tianchong watched the whole city detoxify Chen Erzhi, and Fei Li had been in a coma, besides, under our noses, how could they do anything or so? Do you be blind to this king?" Nangong Mountain is aggressive.
"Commander Xiao." Li Feibai smiled bitterly: "Since you suspect me, then let me ask you a few questions."
Xiao Wuji stared at him with scrutinizing eyes and did not answer.
"The latent plan was improvised by you, how long will it be since I returned to the room and you laid out this plan?"
"About a quarter of an hour." Xiao Wuji didn't know what he wanted to say, so he could only reply truthfully.
"Since it's only a quarter of an hour, where do you think I got the ability to find a black rat to bite me in this short period of time?" Li Feibai retorted.
"Well said!" Nangong Shan nodded in affirmation.
"Your plan wasn't set up several days in advance, so how could Fei Li have time to prepare a black mouse to come out?"
"And." Li Feibai continued: "Even if it happens that there is a black rat in my room, I am so stupid that I disregard my own life in order to pass on the information, and let myself be poisoned? I'm just a layman, greedy for money, lustful and afraid of death, do you really think I'm one of those fools who don't want to die in the Thousand Cities Pavilion?"
