A group of several people walked several courtyards, without exception, let alone people, not even a ghost. Tie Zhu muttered:

"What a bandit den! Otherwise, how could there be a woman! ”

Although the houses were all moved cleanly, not even a single needle was dropped. But whether there is a woman in a family can be seen from the details.

Feng Lisheng didn't speak, and kept walking through all the houses in this mountain pass. There is a large martial arts training ground in the back mountain, and on the side is a row of weapon racks that have not had time to be dismantled.

Seeing this, a few people had the feeling that this was indeed a place to garrison, after all, everything they had just seen. The breath of life is too strong.

Feng Lisheng finally came to the big house with three entrances. The door was symbolically locked from the inside, but for them, it was just a cover-up.

With a tap of the iron pillar's toes, a few vertical leaps easily climbed the wall, and in a short time, the door opened from the inside.

Feng Lisheng took the lead in stepping into the courtyard, the pavilions and water pavilions in the garden, at a glance, this courtyard was very elegant. It wasn't until I came to the main hall and stared at the Taishi chair with tiger skin in the hall that there was a shadow of a bandit's den.

He instructed a few people, "Search this courtyard." ”

When the words fell, what did you feel? He jerked out of the hall, pushed open the nearest window and flashed out.

Tie Zhu subconsciously looked in the direction he left, only to see that there seemed to be a black shadow passing by at great speed. The other guard next to him was stunned:

"This ...... What's the situation? Is there anyone else here? But this person's light skills are very powerful! ”

Tie Zhu angrily patted the head of the guard who spoke: "What an elm head!" Obviously, we have been followed since we entered Qishan, and the other party has followed us all the way here after we broke the formation. Now eighty percent is almost there, and we've found something important. ”

The guard touched his head and said in a daze: "So this is what Gongzi said about the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind." We have worked so hard this time, maybe we have made wedding dresses for others! ”

Tie Zhu's face darkened: "If you can't speak, shut up." ”

The other two guards asked, "So what are we going to do now, are we going to chase after us?" ”

"Forget it, with Childe here, we can't help in the past, according to Childe's instructions, let's search this yard carefully!"

Several people split up, but they searched the courtyard inside and out, but they didn't find anything useful.

However, the guard who spoke just now pointed to an inconspicuous beam, and said with a bitter face: "There are traces of someone turning it over, it seems that the thing has really been taken by the thief!" ”

The iron pillar climbed up the beam of the house and looked at it carefully. It was found that the corners of the beams had been clearly cut with a knife.

The guard was still muttering puzzledly: "Hey, how did he find out in such a short time, did he know where the things were hiding in advance?" ”

Tie Zhu pointed to the dust in the corners of the wall, "Except for the beams, there are no footprints or other traces left in the rest of the place, which is enough to show that the other party is a habitual offender who is proficient in this way." ”

While talking, Feng Lisheng came back, and when he saw that he was alone, Tie Zhu stepped forward and asked carefully: "Childe didn't catch up with anyone?" ”

Feng Lisheng's face was not very good, and he said "um": "The other party's light work is above me." ”

Tie Zhu was a little incredulous: "So powerful, could it be a hermit master on the rivers and lakes!" ”

Except for the few hidden masters on the rivers and lakes and the great masters of Jing and Emperor around him, Feng Lisheng is almost difficult to meet opponents.

Feng Lisheng looked around carefully: "No, the other party's martial arts are not very powerful, but they are flexible, excellent at light skills, and good at concealment." ”

"Listening to Childe's tone, you seem to know this person?"

Sure that nothing could be found in this room, Feng Lisheng took the lead in going out. "If you guess correctly, this person should be a thief on the rivers and lakes!"

"It's the water that has been chasing for two months, I heard from Mrs. that the son also met this person last time when he was in the Xianyang County Guard?"

Of course, Feng Lisheng remembered this, that time he and Shen Mingjiao went to the county guard mansion in disguise, originally to find evidence, but they scared the Xianyang county guard to death by mistake, and finally was intercepted by a man in black.

Feng Lisheng didn't doubt that this person had been following them, just waiting to pick up the leak!

But the matter has already happened, and it is useless to think about it, Tie Zhu frowned and said: "Don't you think Gongzijue, everywhere here is weird?" ”

A few people walked to the backyard, Feng Lisheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, tell me more specifically?" ”

"First of all, this is certainly not a place to raise private soldiers. A real private soldier is almost like a dead soldier, and there won't be so many fireworks, let alone a family!

But if this is a bandit's den, it doesn't look like it, not to mention anything else, from the architectural layout of this courtyard, it can be seen that the owner's birth must be extraordinary, and ordinary people can't raise such vision and taste at all.

There are also regulations on the martial arts training ground in the back mountain, which are completely designed in accordance with the regulations of the military field, in short, it is not at all like what a bandit can do! ”

Feng Lisheng asked, "What else?" ”

Tie Zhu frowned and shook his head: "The subordinates can only think of this?" ”

Feng Lisheng pointed to the courtyard wall built of blue bricks, "This courtyard has been built for at least seventy or eighty years. ”

And seventy or eighty years ago, the first emperor was not born yet, let alone the crown prince!

"What Childe means is that this place has existed for many years, and the owner of this courtyard used to be extraordinary, but then he committed something and took his people to hide in this mountain, and from generation to generation, these people gradually became bandits,"

He continued to speculate: "Later, the prince didn't know how to know this place, so he subdued and controlled the head here, and asked the other party to help her secretly raise private soldiers.

Childe, you said that these people left two or three months ago, so why did they leave suddenly? ”

"Because there was a reason why I had to leave."

As soon as the words fell, the guard in charge of searching in the backyard hurriedly ran over: "Childe, we found this in a firewood room. ”

The guard opened the cloth towel in his hand, revealing an ice-blue earring with a diamond that shimmered in the moonlight.

Feng Lisheng picked it up and looked at it, making sure that it was indeed a diamond, and he didn't think about it. Keep your feet up and walk towards the backyard.

Since the beginning of the year, the light has allowed craftsmen to make tools for cutting diamonds. After that, he launched diamond-encrusted jewelry in the Pretty Pavilion, which was unsurprisingly highly sought after by women.

However, because of its complicated craftsmanship, there are not many products launched every month, and the price of each piece of jewelry is also very expensive, which Shen Mingjiao mentioned to him in the letter.

After a short time, he arrived at the firewood room that the guard had mentioned, and when he pushed open the door, there was a smell of decay. Through the light of the torches, I saw a string of hemp rope thrown on the ground, and there were several pools of dried and blackened blood on the ground.

Tie Zhu squatted down, looked at the blue bricks and dirt on the ground, and said: "There are shoe prints in the bricks, I don't know how many people have been locked up in this house!" ”

Naturally, he doesn't mean exactly what he means by "guan", but he means that the people who are held here have been tortured or beaten.
