Chapter 7: Clues

I saw that next to the hob tiger, there was a knife.

A bloody knife.

The words on it are all too familiar to Xu Zengshou.

Xu family knife.

It was the knife that his father gave to his sister Xu Miaoyun.

Xu Zengshou hurriedly bent down and picked up the knife on the ground, that's right, it was the knife his father gave to the eldest sister.

How did it end up here?

The eldest sister is a female streamer, full of poetry and books, full of economy, is a famous female Zhuge in the Ming Dynasty, and has no power to restrain the chicken, how can she kill people with a knife?

The only possibility is that someone stole the eldest sister's knife and came out to kill people, in a vain attempt to blame their Xu family.

It must be like this.

While speaking, Zhang Zhengyuan also came to him.

"Shao Guogong, what's wrong?"

Xu Zengshou didn't want to cause trouble, so he took the knife in his hand and opened Zhang Zhengyuan.

"General Zhang, go elsewhere to see, can you find a living mouth, and ask who did it?"

Xu Zengshou vaguely felt that this matter did not seem to be simple.

Zhang Zhengyuan was ordered to walk away.

After a while, he found the survivors in the Xu Mansion.

They are all subordinates of the Xu Mansion, some are maids, and some are miscellaneous men, but they are all trembling with fear.

"The official spares his life, the official spares his life."

These people escaped death, and their expressions were still a little dazed. The bloody scene lingered in his mind, and Zhu Feng's words sounded in his ears, revealing the informant, and the whole family was wiped out.

Xu Zengshou and Zhang Zhengyuan looked at this group of people and said coldly.

"Thirty nurses of the Xu family died, whose hands did they die?"

"How many people are on the other side? Who is the leader? ”

Xu Zengshou took people to check, and these dead people were all nursing homes with kung fu. Moreover, the blood stains on his body are still fresh, so it shouldn't have been long ago.

The leader was the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, who was trembling with fright.

"Back to the official, these people all died at the hands of one person, but it was too terrifying just now, and the old man didn't dare to look up at the murderer."

One person?

Zhang Zhengyuan and Xu Zengshou had incredible expressions on their faces.

"How is that possible? These nurses are not ordinary people, and with their own strength, they took their lives, and it was also the kung fu of the front and back feet, which was simply impossible. ”

A maid's voice trembled.

"Really, official, it was really done by one person, but the man covered his face, and the slave didn't see his appearance clearly at all."

Xu Zengshou was thoughtful, and his heart was very shocked.

"It's just the others, the hob tiger is a first-class master. was fatally stabbed, and it seemed that he didn't have the slightest power to fight back. This person's martial arts foundation is not weak. At least above the top class. ”

"Do you see clearly, did that man take this knife and kill these people?"

Xu Zengshou raised the knife in his hand.

The butler trembled with fear.

"Official, where did the villain dare to look at it just now?"

Just then, a servant stepped forward.

"I recognize, that person is the knife he used, after killing the hobby tiger, he accidentally pulled the knife here."

Xu Zengshou was thoughtful.

This Daming, although there are many people who practice martial arts, there are only a few masters who can really reach the first-class.

Arriving at the Grandmaster is even rarer.

Xu Zengshou instinctively felt that the person who slaughtered the forty members of the Xu Mansion was very likely to have something to do with his sister Xu Miaoyun.

Or the eldest sister was killed by this person, not necessarily.

Without further ado.

The eldest sister has been running away from marriage for several days, and there is no news, and my father is crazy at home.

And at this moment, Xu Zengshou found a line of bloodstains, which were left by Zhu Feng carrying Xu Long's head and moving on the ground.

The blood trail stretched from Xu Long's body to the outside of the gate.

Xu Zengshou immediately set the goal.

"Follow the blood, chase."

On the other side, Zhu Feng carried Xu Long's head and went straight to the Yuelai Inn.

His plan was to return the knife first, so that he would not owe Miss Xu a favor.

Then, with the head, he went to his brother's grave to worship.

But what he didn't know was that the blood oozing from the human head had already revealed his whereabouts.

With the speed of the tiger and leopard, coupled with the fast horse, he soon came to the door of the Yuelai Inn.

In the Yuelai Inn, Xu Miaoyun and Xiaocui were in a hurry.

That's right, Miss Xu is Xu Miaoyun, Xu Miaoyun who escaped from marriage.

"Miss, you say, will Brother Zhu have an accident?"

"He is alone, and there are so many nursing homes in the Yin Mansion of Tianfu. Brother Zhu shouldn't have been killed. ”

Compared with Xiao Cui, who is anxious like an ant on a hot pot, Xu Miaoyun is much calmer.

"Xiaocui, don't guess, Brother Zhu has his own blessing. Moreover, I don't think Brother Zhu is a reckless person. ”

As he spoke, there was a sound of footsteps in the hallway. Then a man came softly to their room and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Suddenly, the hearts of the master and servant were raised.

"It's me, Zhu Feng."

Xiao Cui and Xu Miaoyun were pleasantly surprised.

"Brother Zhu, it's Brother Zhu, Xiaocui, hurry up and open the door."

Hearing this, Xiao Cui hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Zhu Feng in.

Entering the door, Zhu Feng put the sack in his hand aside, for fear of scaring the master and servant. was still discovered by Xiao Cui.

"Brother Zhu, what's in the sack you're carrying? Why is it still dripping blood? ”

Xiao Cui's eyes widened in fright and she was stunned.

"This... Say it, don't be afraid, this is Ying Tianfu Yin's head. ”

Yes.

The master and servant screamed and were frightened.

"No, Brother Zhu, you broke into Yingtianfu Yin's mansion alone, and directly took his head."

The master and servant were like listening to the heavens.

Xiao Cui was even more dumbfounded.

Zhu Feng's face was faint, he didn't want to boast, and he didn't even mention the forty guards he killed.

"Miss Zhu, I still have something to do, and I'm here to return the knife today."

He pulled out the scabbard, but the shadow of the knife was gone.

"Oh no, there was chaos just now, I guess I lost the knife."

Xu Miaoyun comforted him.

"Brother Zhu, you saved the lives of our master and servant, just a knife."

"If you lose it, you lose it. As long as it's Brother Zhu, you're fine. ”

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside.

"Quick, surround this inn."

"Look at this bloodstain, this murderer, fled to the inn."

Zhu Feng sighed in his heart.

Xu Zengshou brought people here.
