Chapter 6: The Manger of the Horse
Shuiguan Canyon, the terrain is treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times. Throughout the dynasties, there have been numerous large-scale battles here, the most recent of which was the Battle of Sansi many years ago.
Ye Feng stood in the middle of the canyon and took a deep breath, trying to calm his heart.
As a condemned prisoner, it is unprecedented for him to be able to stand here.
It was a rare opportunity and his only chance to save himself.
"Lokar's law of material exchange, as long as there is a crime scene, there must be a material exchange between the perpetrator and the crime scene."
Ye Feng's eyes closed slightly, and he began to sort out the current clues in his mind......
Traces of the march of the army a few days ago can still be seen on the ground, but the traces are messy and the coverage is obvious, indicating that there was panic here at that time.
You can still see some white powder in the corners of the rocks on both sides, with a faint smell of garlic, which is phosphorus pentoxide left behind after phosphorus burning.
Now that the cause of the ghost fire has been determined, there are still two questions left.
How did the sound of the army fighting come about?
How did the meteorite named Lingyuan disappear?
He looked up at the terrain of the canyon, and then looked back at the members of the Nine Star Division not far away, his brows sinking deeper and deeper.
The Nine Star Division is an organization similar to Jinyiwei, and the members in it are all first-class masters with unique skills, but judging from today's contact, they are more like a group of wine bags and rice bags, and they have no ability to solve cases.
This just shows a problem, the Nine Star Division didn't expect a different outcome in this case at all, these people were all at the bottom of the Nine Star Division, and the so-called investigation was just a formality.
But that Han Nian seems to be a little different.
"How? Figured it out? Lin Xiyao walked up to him and asked softly.
Ye Feng looked at her and nodded slightly: "You answer me a few questions first." ”
"What's the problem?"
"Is there a lot of people going in and out of Shuiguan Canyon? Is there a home nearby? Ye Feng was not in a hurry, and according to his own criminal investigation reasoning ideas, he investigated and questioned step by step.
Although Lin Xiyao didn't understand what this question had to do with Yin Bing's borrowing of the Dao, seeing his confident expression, he still replied seriously: "Shuiguan Canyon is located in a remote area, the terrain is treacherous, and almost no one comes here in normal times. There used to be a village in the vicinity, but the people in the village said that the Shuiguan Gorge was haunted and often made some terrible sounds, and over time, those villagers moved away, and the original village was abandoned. ”
Ye Feng nodded, it seems that the Nine Star Division is not all a group of people who eat empty salaries, although they don't have the mind to solve the case, but the basic investigation and visit are okay.
He paused, then asked, "You just said that there are often some terrible noises here, what is it?" ”
Lin Xiyao's eyebrows sank, and she replied: "Everyone says something different, but in general, it is a whining sound similar to a wolf's howl, but there are no wolves around here at all." ”
After speaking, Lin Xiyao also briefly imitated the voice.
Ye Feng looked around Shuiguan Canyon and asked again, "Is there a cave near here?" ”
Lin Xiyao replied: "According to the person in charge of the investigation of the Nine Star Division, there are more than a dozen caves in the vicinity, all of which are artificially dug out, and there are some ordnance in them, which should be hidden soldiers' caves. Shuiguan Canyon is an ancient battlefield, where large-scale battles have occurred in all dynasties, and it is normal to have hidden soldiers' caves. ”
After hearing this, Ye Feng raised his head slightly, and let out a long sigh of relief: "It seems that I guessed correctly, it was a surprise horse manger." ”
"Horse manger?!"
Lin Xiyao looked at him suspiciously, and for a while, she didn't seem to know the young man in front of her.
Ye Lin's two families were married, but Lin Xiyao only saw Ye Feng a few times when she was very young, and then her father's location changed, and the two never met again. Regarding Ye Feng's situation, Lin Xiyao heard about him more often from other people's mouths, hearing that he was a waste, a stupid person, and the laughing stock of the entire Yangning Kingdom.
But it's such a waste that just turned the white powder into a ghost fire?
A smile gradually appeared on Ye Feng's face, and he sighed: "I know the answer to all this now." ”
"So where did the sound of the army fighting come from?"
"You'll know when the wind blows later." Ye Feng sold a pass.
"It's windy?"
Ye Feng looked around and said, "I hope the wind will come soon, don't let me wait too long." ”
Lin Xiyao was still puzzled: "So, as long as there is wind, you will know the answer?" ”
Ye Feng nodded vigorously and stopped talking, just prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the wind would come soon.
"It's not easy to get windy?" Lin Xiyao shrugged her shoulders, turned around and shouted at the crowd of the Nine Star Division: "Han Nian! Your help is needed here! ”
Not far away, Han Nian leaned against a big tree, closed his eyes and pondered, snoring from time to time.
"Han Nian, what did Miss Lin call you? Why did you sleep again? ”
A colleague from the Nine Star Division stepped forward and stretched out his hand to call him.
Just as his hand was about to slap Han Nian's hand, he suddenly opened his eyes: "Don't touch me!" ”
The other party was taken aback: "Is it time to cure your narcolepsy, Miss Lin called you." ”
"Oh."
Han Nian stood up straight, his figure flickering.
In the next second, he was already standing beside Lin Xiyao, leaving only the remnants of the Dao behind him.
"What's the matter with me?" Han Nian asked coldly, trying to keep a safe distance from Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was really taken aback by Han Nian who suddenly appeared beside him: "Damn, don't you have a CD in your flash?" Is this the speed of light? Relativity?! ”
Lin Xiyao ignored Ye Feng's nonsense, and said to Han Nian eagerly: "Quick, let the wind blow here." ”
Han Nian's brows furrowed slightly: "It's windy? ”
Lin Xiyao affirmed: "Yes, the wind is blowing. ”
"How much wind is blowing?" Han Nian continued to ask.
Lin Xiyao thought for a while and looked at Ye Feng beside her: "Yes, how much wind do you want." ”
Ye Feng had no idea about the magnitude of the wind, and said casually: "How big is the wind?" Level seven? Level eight? Anyway, the bigger, the better. ”
Han Nian nodded, took a deep breath, clasped his palms together, flat on his chest, and said something in his mouth.
"Wind and Thunder!"
Then, a pale blue glow flashed from his fingertips.
Suddenly, gusts of wind blew head-on from the depths of the Shuiguan Canyon, flying sand and rocks, destroying withering and decaying.
Ye Feng's feet were unstable, and his whole body was shaking in the wind.
I had just seen that Han Nian had the ability to control fire, and I also vaguely felt that he would have the ability to control the wind, but the current situation still made Ye Feng feel very shocked.
In the next second, the sound of ghosts crying and howling wolves sounded, echoing in the entire Shuiguan Canyon, and the sound of the army fighting was still in my ears.
"This ...... It's a typhoon, ah......" The wind poured into Ye Feng's mouth and into his stomach, making him instantly turn into an inflated balloon: "Stop...... Stop...... That's enough...... Gross-"
When Han Nian heard this, he waved his hand, dissipating the blue light from his fingertips, and the wind stopped instantly.
He was about to speak, when he suddenly looked down and saw that his spotless Nine Star Division uniform was covered with dust.
He shuddered violently, and his whole body twitched.
"You go on, I'll go back and change my clothes first."
As soon as the words fell, Han Nian had already disappeared beside the two.
Ye Feng looked at the direction Han Nian left, and showed envious eyes at the remnants of the Dao Dao: "Gao Leng character, good looks and ability, proper president Fan......"
