Regarding Zheng Kaifeng's question, Shang Qing didn't know how to answer him, but said that he heard someone talk about it by chance, so as to cover up and prevaricate.

It's also strange to say, since he went to the Three-Star Pavilion of Fangcunhai in his dream, met two immortal monarchs to teach the Fa, and practiced the internal practice method called "Ancient Innocent Breathing and Breathing Method" a few times, those inexplicable thoughts in his mind appeared more frequently, and even imperceptibly affected his words and deeds.

I don't know if my illness is getting worse and worse, Shang Qing suddenly has an absurd sense of time urgency in his heart.

Zheng Kaifeng saw that Shang Qing was reluctant to say, so he didn't continue to ask. After all, it has only been more than an hour since the two first met, and Zheng Kaifeng has a trace of admiration and trust for the demon hunter in front of him, who is a few years younger than him, in addition to curiosity.

The encounter between people is so wonderful that it is the most difficult to explain.

After that, Shang Qing and the three of them went to visit Cui Mansion, Lu Mansion, Wang Mansion, Li Mansion, and Xie Mansion one by one, and several of them agreed very happily, and they were all willing to help catch the thief girl, as for who was telling the truth and who was talking about the scene, Shang Qing didn't bother to screen them one by one. Since the Zheng Mansion is willing to help, in short, the purpose of coming to Taipingfang has been achieved.

During this period, there was also a small episode, when Shang Qing and the three of them arrived at Xie's mansion, Xie Anyun, the owner of the Taixue Poetry Academy, happened to be in the house, and after Xie Anyun learned Shang Qing's name, he inexplicably appreciated him very much, and took the initiative to talk to him about the way of poetry.

The time quietly came to the beginning, and the three of them had just come out of Xie's mansion, and the capable man who had just appeared at the Mingde Gate was already waiting at the corner of the street outside the mansion.

The capable man reported a piece of news to the pawn Kui: There are indeed three craftsmen from the Craftsman's Mansion who did not come to order today.

Luo Junchen, the commander of the Yiwu Colonel of Wei Qiansi, hurriedly led his men to the homes of the three people, but they were still one step too late, and the homes of the three craftsmen were empty.

They asked their neighbors and were told that the three craftsmen had taken their families out of the city early in the morning.

And these three craftsmen happened to be all involved in the production process of "Flying Dragon in the Sky".

After hearing this, Dian Kui was very annoyed and asked, "What about Luo Junchen?" ”

"Captain Luo has already led the black cavalry out of the city to chase after him." The lean man said with a worried face.

"Go check, in half an hour, I want to know all the information about the three of them." Dian Kui's face was obviously a little unbearable.

No one expected that if it weren't for Qi Shangzhen's advance for the sake of safety, the two captains of the Wei Qiansi would have been escorted by the saint's side, one openly and one secretly, and the king would have been invited into the urn, but it almost caused a tragedy that led the wolf into the house.

So far, there seems to be a tendency to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and more and more people will definitely be involved.

Obviously, with Gu Baimen's energy alone, it is impossible to complete this well-planned assassination operation, and behind her, there must be a powerful and powerful person.

Dian Kui didn't dare to imagine what level of shock it would bring to this jade capital city if it continued to develop according to this trend.

"Brother Shang, the situation is very bad!"

Almost half a day passed, but there was no movement in the palace, as if a "assassination of the saint" that happened in front of the public had never happened.

Dian Kui suddenly realized that there was something wrong with all of this.

Even though the saint and Shoufu had previously deployed a strict plan to collect the net, the result was: Chengtianmen was blown open, the city tower was also destroyed by an arrow, and the most important thing was that the thief Gu Baimen fled.

The saint was assassinated, the moon sacrifice ceremony was destroyed, hundreds of casualties occurred among the people watching the lantern festival, and the Qiongcao Tower was destroyed by fire.

Pawn Kui, who has been the right lieutenant of the Wei Qiansi for fifteen years, knows that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the truth that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, he stood at the crossroads of Taipingfang, at a loss.

"Brother Dian, let's go to the homes of the three craftsmen?" Shang Qing stretched his waist and said angrily:

"I suspect that they must have left in a hurry when they left with their families, and perhaps there were some clues left in their homes."

Dian Kui was suddenly shocked.

One of the craftsmen closest to them lives in Pingkangfang, and is an errand boy under the general of the Craftsman's Office, mainly responsible for the production of the keel of the "Flying Dragon in the Sky".

If you want to drag dozens of singers to fly, you must first consider the bearing capacity of the keel.

Because the process of making "Flying Dragon in the Sky" is extremely cumbersome, there are hundreds of craftsmen involved, they have a clear division of labor, each performing their own duties, and each craftsman is carefully selected by the General Administration of Craftsmen, all of whom are innocent of family background.

The status of the craftsman in Daqian is not high, and there are not many people, and every inch of land in Yujing City is expensive, although the craftsman in charge of keel production has been in Beijing for more than ten years, the place where he lives is still leased through brokers.

At this time, there was a man with thick eyebrows and a wide face standing in front of the craftsman's house, who was a well-known broker in several squares near Pingkangfang.

Lin Sanlang was talking with an official with a smile: "Wang Fangcheng, haven't you eaten yet?" I've got you a cake. Then he handed over a steaming sesame dough wrapped in oiled paper, which was fragrant, Wang Fangcheng took it and found that there were several silver coins embedded in the dough. He secretly pinched it a few times, a total of eight.

"I really don't know, the Lu craftsman family of three has been renting a house in our Pingkangfang for more than ten years, honest and honest, and never defaults on rent. I never thought that he was a traitor, and I hope that Wang Fangcheng will see everything and go around me, and I, Lin Sanlang, will be a cow and a horse to repay Fang Cheng's kindness. Lin Saburo said in a low voice with a flattering face.

Wang Fangcheng hesitated slightly, although he took the dough cake, but he lowered his voice with a straight face and threatened: "Lin Sanlang, whether you can survive depends on the three adults inside, you will go in for a while, you must explain truthfully, if you hide something, it will make the three adults angry, and it will affect me, I will carefully peel your skin." ”

Lin Saburo was grateful for a while, and then bowed down and entered the house, seeing that there were really three people standing in the house, he glanced at it secretly, but they were not wearing official uniforms, he quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times respectfully, and then said in a panic: "Lin Saburo has seen three adults." ”

A gentle voice sounded in the room: "Get up, don't be afraid, you can answer whatever we ask, and don't worry if you really don't know." ”

Lin Sanlang hurriedly kowtowed a few more times, "My lord, may I ask, the little one must know everything and say everything." ”

"When and where did you first meet Craftsman Lu?" Said in a gentle voice.

"It's about March of the eleventh year of Tianfu, I really don't remember the specific day when the little one is, I just remember that the big peach tree just bloomed at that time, and I met the Lu craftsman family of three on the side of Peach Tree Lane." Lin Saburo said.

"Pingkangfang is not close to Ping'anfang!" The gentle voice suddenly became two points more majestic.

Lin Saburo was so frightened that he kept kowtowing, and he never dared to look up, "Adult Mingjian, the little one used to live in Peach Tree Lane, and he went to see the big peach tree every year." ”

Suddenly, a warm palm supported Lin Sanlang's forehead, looking at the blood on Lin Sanlang's forehead, the owner of the gentle voice was a little unbearable, and helped him up, "Lin Sanlang, take a closer look, who am I?" ”

Lin Sanlang was stunned, and immediately exclaimed, "Young Master Shang? It's really you! Oops, the little one didn't recognize you in the first place. ”

"Lin Sanlang, since we are old acquaintances, you don't have to worry, as long as you answer my question honestly, I will ensure that you will not go out without arms and legs."

Shang Qing stepped aside and picked up Wei Qiansi's investigation record of the Lu craftsmen, which was extremely detailed, and Wei Qiansi's ability to do this in half an hour was enough to prove its horror.

"Lu Jiangren has a son, he should be sixteen years old this year, have you seen him?" Shang Qing asked.

"I've seen it, I've seen it, I've come to his house to collect rent, and I've seen it a few times."

"What does he do in the city?"

"I heard that kid has been working as a guide in the area of Suzaku Gate since he was eight years old, and he specializes in leading the way for foreigners who come to Yujing, and he is very familiar with the streets of Zhufang in Yujing City."

"Oh? Do you know who is in charge of the Suzaku Gate area? ”

"Fourth Master Cui."

"The Cui family?" Shang Qing's voice raised a little.

Lin Sanlang knew what the "Cui family" meant in the other party's mouth, he shook his head and said, "No, Fourth Master Cui has nothing to do with the Cui family, he wants to climb the big tree of the Cui family, but unfortunately the Cui family can't look down on him." ”

Shang Qing nodded, and Wen Yan said, "Lin Sanlang, you can go." ”

Lin Saburo couldn't believe it, he stood in place, unable to move.

Dian Kui slapped him on the shoulder, and scolded with a fierce and vicious face: "Get out, it's none of your business here." ”

After Lin Saburo came out of the room, Dian Kui spoke: "Brother Shang, you really pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, in my opinion, the son of the craftsman Lu is not just a guide." ”

"Gu Baimen has been planning painstakingly for many years, and the forces in Yujing City will definitely not be small." Shang Qing's eyes closed slightly, and he said:

"General Zheng, please bring a team of Jin Wuwei, let's go meet that Fourth Master Cui."

In Wei Qiansi's investigation of the Lu craftsman, only the record of his son is unknown.

It is unusual for a skilled craftsman who works as an errand boy in the Yujing Folk Craftsman Governor's Mansion to agree to let him be a guide without letting his own children inherit the mantle.

Being a guide may just be an act of cover-up, but in fact it is to pass on information and contact all parties.

Judging from the time when the craftsmen entered the Jade Capital City, Gu Changfeng's rebellion has not yet broken out, and the Gu family of Munan Mansion has not yet been destroyed by the three clans.

It may be that since then, Gu Changfeng has already started to lay out in Yujing City, but Gu Changfeng was secretly arrested by Wei Qiansi before he activated the chess piece of Lu Craftsman.

It wasn't until the appearance of Gu Baimen later that the dark chess of Lu Craftsman was activated again.
