Chapter 80: Investigation
The person I met in the morning shop before was Ji Linsheng, who had already made a little gain after investigating all night.
After he left the guest room last night, he went not far outside the courtyard of the county guard, and also found the formation laid out in the courtyard, generally speaking, this formation can prevent monks below the god realm after it is opened.
It's not that you can't pass below the Divine Spirit Realm, it's just that if you don't reach the Divine Spirit Realm, your divine sense can't be released, and you can't help the monk explore the internal structure, so it will take more time to break the formation, and if you don't break through the formation, it will create a lot of movement.
He came to investigate secretly, and in that case, it would definitely not work to break in, so it would not be called a covert investigation.
But he Ji Linsheng also has some experience in the formation, not to mention that he is quite proficient, at least there is no problem in breaking this formation.
However, Lingwu Junshou is a master who has already jumped over the Dragon Gate, and he only stayed in the stage of exploring the divine power of the True Yuan, so he did not break through the realm to the marrow washing stage, even so, when the Yuan Qi in the body has been transformed into the True Yuan, the strength is also very different from that in front of the Dragon Gate.
He was not sure that the movement during the break of the formation would be so small that the county guard could not detect it, so he simply did not try to break the formation, and only lurked in the distance.
It may be the effect of the superstitious formation, the county guard and his henchmen talked to him in the courtyard, and he actually gave him the opportunity to read lip language, and through lip language, he learned that the county guard and his subordinates were actually talking about bribery and extermination, and also inadvertently confided in the place where the body of the person who was exterminated was dumped, which made him feel very incredible.
Then he followed Master Bu to another courtyard, because there was no county guard present this time, he boldly broke through the formation and sneaked in, and heard the conversation between Master Bu and the guard, which was simply Master Bu explaining a few things to his subordinates.
He listened for a while and then withdrew silently, ready to investigate the matter.
There are interests between officials, what materials need to be transported, there are generally many processes in it, if it involves the resources allocated by the state, the process is even more cumbersome, even if the county guard can make a decision, the approval between various departments is skipped, but the matter still has to be done by people after all.
As long as the county guards don't do everything themselves, the people below will inevitably have a lot of contact with other people, and the key to the contact process always needs to be opened, and the people who handle this process are basically low-level officials.
He first checked the low-level officials in Lingwu County and found that many officials in key positions had disappeared recently.
Then he went to the place where the body was dumped revealed by the county guard, not only found a large number of corpses, but also confirmed that the identity of the corpse was consistent with those missing officials, and traced all the way according to the clues left at the place where the body was dumped, and found several thugs who were arranged to kill the mouth.
He decisively took down one of them, and then extorted a confession through secret methods, knowing who his upline was.
Ji Linsheng has a strong executive ability, and he kept sneaking into the upline's house all the time, and found a lot of traces of the accounts being burned, thinking that the clues would be cut off, and the evidence was no longer there.
But he still searched the man's home with the last glimmer of hope, not knowing whether the upline wanted to get some tricks to protect himself at a critical time, or other reasons, but those were not important, the important thing was that he did not destroy all the accounts, and hid some of them.
The location of the private collection is very secret, if it weren't for the fact that he is a patrol of the school palace, he is proficient in various search techniques, it is really difficult to find.
This part of the account clearly states that there are many exchanges of interests between the Lingwu County Shou and the Guozi Sacrifice Wine, not only have private interest exchanges, but also dare to embezzle the resources of the imperial court, which makes him angry.
There are a lot of things to do, and the tracking process is complicated, but he did it all overnight, and the efficiency is not low.
Originally, the process was reasonable, but this investigation was also quite troublesome, and it was not a certain luck factor, so he could not complete the investigation, and it stands to reason that he only needed to take down the people involved and the stolen goods together in the last bribery process of the county guard, and it would be a great success, after all, the stolen goods and the ironclad evidence was overwhelming.
But Ji Linsheng hesitated, after thinking about it, although he couldn't say what was wrong, he just faintly felt that there was something else hidden in this matter, and this kind of layer-by-layer investigation could be done overnight, which could not be explained by the word efficiency at all.
Whenever there is a big event, he can be quiet and then he can be safe, and then he can be safe, and then he can be worried, and then he can get it, since the subconscious tells him that there is something strange, then he must calm down and think about it.
Taking advantage of the dawn, he was not in a hurry, he casually found an early stall with few people to get some food, just sat and thought while eating, but happened to meet Wei Feng and Liu Cun, and when he saw the other party mentioning the Xue Palace, he was not in a hurry to go and listen to it more.
I didn't expect to hear this casually and found that it was not a coincidence that the other party was sitting here, although the other party did not mention him at all, but he did not leave him at all.
Then there was the scene where Wei Feng and Liu Cun sang a double reed, and he suddenly became enlightened, but he really didn't mind leaving a place for this young man.
But not to mention that the quota is nothing at all in the eyes of his level, and not to mention the magic of this young man himself, just saying that the nineteen-year-old half-step dragon gate young man next to him is worthy of him selling the other party.
And Wei Feng himself is borrowing the momentum this time, borrowing Liu Cun's momentum, he admits that there is an element of gambling, but the fact is that he is right.
On the premise of waking up to the fact that the other party had always known his whereabouts, Ji Linsheng went to look at this incident again, and several strange things suddenly became inexplicable.
While it was just dawn, the people of the county guard were still busy, and his figure walked through the mansion like a ghost, but no one could detect him.
Ji Linsheng squatted in a corner outside the county guard, carefully checked the isolation formation again, and came with a purpose, this time he finally discovered that there was a small phantom formation in this isolation formation.
It's just that this phantom array is too hidden, and it is indeed so small that he didn't even notice it when he came here in a hurry last night.
With such a small phantom array, the illusion area produced is also very small, so most of the situations I saw outside the courtyard last night must be true, this phantom array can do not do many things, but the effect is not necessarily small, for example, changing the lip language seen by people outside the array......
He seemed to have an understanding, and got up to leave, but suddenly found a fragment of ceramics under his feet, and he recalled the jar of wine that the county guard drank last night, it seemed to be this kind of jar, and he came close and smelled it, in addition to the smell of wine, there seemed to be some kind of ecstasy drug......
——
At the same time, a subordinate carried a small package into a certain courtyard, and there was only the guard under Master Bu in the courtyard.
The servant closed the courtyard door, opened the package, and handed it to the guard, only to see that the pieces inside the package were all large or small pieces after the wine jar had been broken.
The servant reported: "My lord, the fragments of the wine jar that were thrown outside the courtyard by the county guard last night have all been picked up, and they are all here." ”
The guard nodded, didn't look at it much, and just asked casually, "Are you sure it's clean?" Nothing is missing, right? ”
The man lowered his head expressionlessly, but said, "My subordinates have confirmed that they have picked it up." ”
The guard waved his hand: "Okay, then you can go." ”
The subordinate took the order and left, bowing his head the whole time.
The guards shook the debris into powder and sprinkled it into the latrine.
If he had been more cautious and had tried to restore the fragments, he might have found that the fragments might be missing a piece......
