Chapter 33: The number one suspect target

"What?"

Zhou Heng almost thought that he had heard it wrong, and said in amazement: "Is it Zhao Yuan, the owner of the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion?

"That's right. Liu Changsheng nodded, and then smiled: "But you don't need to worry, almost no one believes that you killed it." Well, before the truth is revealed, Zhao Yuan's personal disciples and daughters may have some hostility towards you. ”

"Whew, that's normal. Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still very puzzled in his heart, he took Liu Changsheng to a corner and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhao Yuan is the owner of the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion, he set foot on the Seven Grades more than ten years ago, and he is still an outer disciple of the Five Elements Sect, proficient in many advanced martial arts, and can be said to be a master in the city of Huangtong Mansion.

How could it suddenly die overnight?

"It was discovered by that Chen Jiaoxi from the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion. Liu Changsheng didn't have any arrogance, so he directly told Zhou Heng what happened.

After Zhou Heng listened, he had a general understanding of some of the circumstances of this matter.

It turned out that Zhao Yuan was practicing in the martial arts hall yesterday, and when it was over, it was already evening, so he simply ate in the canteen of the martial arts hall and went to his exclusive bedroom to rest.

Since he has always had the habit of going to the morning class square in the morning to check the apprentices' schoolwork, rain or shine, but Chen Jiaoxi, who was in charge of the morning class today, found that he did not come.

So after the morning class, I went to Zhao Yuan's bedroom to look for him, but I didn't expect to find that he had died in his bedroom.

The whole room was cluttered, the furniture was shattered, and it was clear that there had been a fierce battle.

Zhao Yuan's death was quite miserable, the bones of his knees were completely crushed by the powerful force, his chest cavity also collapsed, his ribs were almost completely broken, most of his internal organs were also damaged, his whole body was broken, and his martial arts were all abolished.

In the end, it seemed that with his last breath and full of hatred, he wrote the line "Murderer Zhou Heng".

"Since there was a fierce battle at that time, didn't anyone hear the sound?" Zhou Heng wondered: "In a place as big as the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion, there should be a watchman." ”

"The arrester of the government office questioned the watchman, but he didn't hear any sound. Liu Changsheng shook his head and said: "This matter is very weird, and it is even more weird when it comes to you, it is estimated that there will be a capture from the Fucheng Yamen to pass on to you later, so get ready." ”

"Then Liu Gongzi came here just to tell me this?" Zhou Heng was surprised, he thought that Liu Changsheng came here to take him to the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion, or to the Yamen of Fucheng.

"This son is not a fast catcher, can he still catch you away?" Liu Changsheng turned around and walked out, waved his hand at the same time, and said, "I'm just idle and bored, I want you to be faster Jipin, and you can have two tricks with me."

"It's really disappointing to encounter this kind of thing now, but you can't be fooled by others, so be more careful yourself. ”

By the time he had finished speaking, the man had already left.

"Thank you. Zhou Heng whispered towards the door.

- Liu Changsheng didn't find out that he was already the ninth rank, this is because the stage of the lower third rank cannot directly judge the cultivation realm of other people through perception, and it can only be determined when fighting.

"Xiao Zhou, that one just now is Liu Changsheng of the Five Elements Sect?" Lin Cang walked over, he had actually been paying attention to this side, and said, "I believe that you are innocent, but Zhao Yuan's identity is not ordinary after all, and this matter should not be simple."

"Later, if the arrester of the Fucheng Yamen comes to take you away, you don't have to have any rebellious mentality, just follow them, I will go to the old hall owner, I should be able to dredge up some relationships." ”

"Good. Zhou Heng nodded, his heart warmed slightly.

Lin Cang is really concerned about the teaching of his apprentices, such people are rare no matter what era or world, and they are more likely to avoid apprentices who may have made mistakes.

Less than a quarter of an hour after Liu Changsheng left, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a cyan power suit, a red belt tied around his waist, and a short knife hanging out.

Behind him, there were three young men, burly and tall, also wearing cyan power suits, but only a white belt was tied around their waists.

This is the costume of the Huangtong Mansion Yamen to catch fast.

The red belt is the head catcher, and the white belt is just the usual catch.

This head catcher walked into the martial arts hall and immediately attracted everyone's attention, but he did not make a noise, but asked Zhou Heng where he was quite politely, and walked over directly.

"I am Meng Xing, the head catcher of the Fucheng Yamen. The attitude of this head catcher was surprisingly gentle, and he bowed his hand to Zhou Heng and said, "Zhou Gongzi, Liu Gongzi came here just now, you must already know about Pavilion Master Zhao." ”

Has the attitude of catching fast been so kind these years?

Zhou Heng was slightly stunned before nodding and said, "Well, I already know some information." ”

"Then ask Gongzi Zhou to go with us to the Wuxiang Martial Arts Hall. Meng Xing smiled and said: "Don't worry, Childe, with us by your side, even if someone in the Wuxiang Martial Arts Pavilion doesn't have the brains to believe in this matter, it won't hurt you." ”

"......" Zhou Heng was a little confused, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

What's the situation, this head-hunting attitude is inevitably too good.

Could it be because I'm so handsome?

High charisma plus favorability?

Well, that seems pretty reasonable.

Lin Cang, who was standing on the side, was also a little confused.

In fact, as early as just now, he was already ready, and wanted to use silver to make a little bit of money, so that these catchers would be milder towards Zhou Heng, so as not to cause any chaos when Zhou Heng was young.

didn't expect that the attitude of this head catcher was so good, as if he really regarded Zhou Heng as a child of some family.

Could it be that Liu Changsheng said hello in advance?

But this is unlikely, even if he is extremely bored and wants an opponent to make a move, there is no need to hold Zhou Heng like this.

Being able to explain the situation in advance is already considered benevolent and righteous.

What's going on?

The apprentices in the hall were also stunned.

Most of the apprentices in the Longxing Martial Arts Hall come from ordinary families, and they are all respectful of people like catching fast heads, and they naturally have an inexplicable sense of fear.

But now, how can these rumored fierce and vicious guys be so respectful to Zhou Heng?

Could it be that Zhou Heng actually has some great background?

"Gongzi Zhou, what do you think?" Meng Xing saw that Zhou Heng was silent and did not answer, so he asked again, his tone was still gentle, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

"Uh...... Good. Only then did Zhou Heng come back to his senses and said, "Bother Meng Zhutou to lead the way." ”

......

As soon as Zhou Heng, Meng Xing and the others left, the apprentices in the Longxing Martial Arts Hall immediately exploded.

There was a lot of talk.

"Oh my God, Zhou Heng can't really be a disciple of a great sect, right?

"It's really very possible, his martial arts talent is too high, if he is not a disciple of a great sect, how can he have such a talent?"

"Zhou Heng is too powerful, in fact, he may also be a child of the great family!"

"However, our Daqi doesn't seem to have a big family surnamed Zhou, and it seems that there is a Zhou family in the south of Dajin. ”

Lin Cang saw that these people were guessing wildly, and the more they guessed, the more outrageous it became, so he hurriedly stood up and scolded:

"What are you talking about!?

The apprentices immediately ended the heated discussion and dispersed.

Lin Cang's gaze moved away from these apprentices, and his gaze looked in the direction of Chengbei District, he was a little worried about Zhou Heng.

......

Longxing Martial Arts Hall is located in the eastern part of the city, which is quite far from the northern part of the city.

Although Zhou Heng and his party went by carriage, it still took at least half an hour to arrive.

Therefore, when he was on the road, Zhou Heng inquired in detail about the location of the crime from Meng Xing, the head catcher.

learned some details that Liu Changsheng hadn't detailed before.

For example, the window is clearly open, but there is no sign of being climbed over or damaged.

The walls of the bedrooms are also intact.

Even if Zhao Yuan's bedroom is not small, more than three zhang long and wide, and one zhang high, even the furniture has been beaten to pieces, but the wall has not been damaged, which is not normal at all.

It's very weird.

Zhou Heng frowned, simulating the situation in that bedroom in his heart.

This description is almost like something wrapping up the space inside the bedroom, no matter how destructive it is inside, it will have no effect on the outside.

So there will be no damage to the walls and windows.

If there is really this ability, then it is normal for people outside to not hear the sound of fighting, because this space is wrapped, and the sound is naturally blocked, and it cannot be transmitted at all.

But what kind of realm does this level of ability need to be able to achieve?

Anyway, the next three products should not reach this level.

Even if he is a master at the peak of the seventh grade, it is impossible to directly wrap a piece of space.

I'm afraid that you have to be at least a strong person in the middle and third grades to do it.

Maybe......

Ghosts?

Zhou Heng couldn't help but think of his previous experience.

If it is such an evil and unknown, mysterious and unpredictable, but immortal and immortal ghost thing, it does not seem very strange to have the strange ability to block space.

It does seem possible.

Thinking of this, he thought of what happened to Yu He before.

Originally, Zhou Heng planned to explore carefully after learning the palm thunder and the ability to kill ghosts, but he didn't expect that something would come to the door so soon.

I didn't even have time to learn the palm thunder.

"If this matter is really related to ghosts, is it the same as the ghost that Yu He encountered? ”

Zhou Heng fell into deep thought.

"Yu He had a sudden accident the night before yesterday, and before that, he only contacted me and Liu Changsheng, Wang Guanshi, Zhao Yuan and others, how could he ...... No, there's another one, the money shopkeeper!"

He suddenly thought of the money shopkeeper who appeared and disappeared inexplicably that night.

Although Yu Heming didn't really contact the money shopkeeper that night, the strange demeanor and expression of the money shopkeeper seemed very problematic.

Originally, Zhou Heng and Yu He just thought that it was just an expression of envy, jealousy and hatred purely out of competition and business failure, but now it seems that this is not the case.

Maybe he's already in cahoots with the ghosts?

"Gongzi Zhou, it's here. Meng Xing reminded him.

"Thank you. Zhou Heng bowed slightly, then got up and got out of the car, but as soon as he got out of the car, he saw his number one suspicious target.

More money!

Money Shopkeeper!

Compared with the previous two days, the money shopkeeper at this time was obviously much paler, his expression was sad, and he sighed from time to time, and seemed to be very sad.

Zhou Heng's arrival immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

So handsome!

This is people's first reaction.

And then the second reaction -

Such a good-looking person really can't be a murderer!

Of course, there would be such thoughts, or because most people didn't believe that it was Zhou Heng who killed Zhao Yuan at all.

Why does an unqualified martial artist kill a seventh-grade master?

Hardly!

But at this time, the money shopkeeper came over and stood in front of Zhou Heng, the sad expression on his face suddenly turned into anger, his eyes stared at Zhou Heng, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Zhou Heng, you killed Zhao Yuan, and you still dare to come here, are you from the crime of killing and apologizing!?"
