Chapter XI: Investigation of Cases
There was a sound of fighting outside the backyard at dawn, and Li Kunlun got dressed and went out to check. I saw Yuan Tai and a group of Medicine King Valley disciples fighting around Jiang Yanzi, the group of green-shirted disciples was obviously no match for Jiang Yanzi, but Jiang Yanzi was also pulling on the situation for being ruthless to them, Meng Zhen stood by and watched the battle, and after a while, others also came one after another, and Wang Hao saw this and helped the Medicine King Valley side to move.
"What's wrong with Brother Yuan, why are you besieging Miss Jiang" Chu Nanfeng ran out and his clothes were not yet tidied up.
"I heard that the disciples of the Medicine King Valley searched our original residence after we entered the village," Meng Zhen responded
"Did you find something from Miss Jiang?" asked Li Kunlun
Mengzhen monk: "Yes, a piece of peach blossom order and a falling plum dart, the peach blossom order is a token of the assassin organization Taohuawu, this falling plum dart is needless to say that it is the unique secret weapon of Luomei Village"
Xiao Rui, who was on the side, heard this, his eyes changed suddenly, and he also joined the siege of Jiang Yanzi. Jiang Yanzi couldn't dodge and was hit in the left arm by Xiao Rui with a stick, and he was defeated by the one-handed knife, so he could only jump out of the encirclement and run to the front hall.
"Stop", the valley lord walked in with Lehua, and was running into Jiang Yanzi running towards him. When everyone saw the lord of the valley, they all stopped.
Lord of the Valley: "Tai'er, why are you so rude to your guests?"
Yuan Tai: "Master, this Jiang Yanzi is an assassin of Taohuawu, Senior Brother Zhou found Peach Blossom Ling and Miss Xue's Falling Plum Dart in her house, Miss Xue must have been killed by her"
Jiang Yanzi: "Nonsense, it's good that I'm an assassin in Yanziwu, but I didn't kill Xue Yu'er"
Yuan Tai: "The physical evidence is here and I still want to deny it"
Jiang Yanzi: "Xue Yu'er injured one of my companions in the Daimyo Mansion, I was ordered by the elders to teach her some lessons while she left Luomeizhuang, and she was killed before she could do anything, if I killed it, I will admit it, if it's not me, don't want to frame me"
Wang Xu: "My mother is right, good-looking women can deceive people, the valley lord and the eldest prince can't believe what an assassin says"
Lehua: "Miss Jiang, Yanziwu is notorious for wantonly assassinating people in the rivers and lakes, and now that people have obtained stolen goods, it is better to put down your weapons and tie your hands and arrest them, you can't escape today"
"Wait," seeing that Lehua was about to make a move, Li Kunlun shouted.
Li Kunlun: "Brother Le, it's not too late to ask the reason for it"
Wang Xu: "Adult's business, what are you talking about this hairy boy?"
Chu Nanfeng: "Brother Le, what the little brother said is right, let's ask clearly"
"Well, since Brother Chu said so, you can ask if you want to" Lehua was a little displeased and still gave Chu Nanfeng face.
Li Kunlun: "Brother Chu, when you and Brother Xiao saw Miss Xue's body, what was the wound?"
Chu Nanfeng: "It's the same as the wound of the money shopkeeper, it should be the same bastard"
Li Kunlun: "Miss Jiang, can you show me your knife?"
Jiang Yanzi hesitated for a moment, but still handed over the short knife.
Li Kunlun: "Do you still remember that the wound of the money shopkeeper is very small and symmetrical on both sides, and Senior Wei also said that the murderer used an extremely thin sword. But you see how Miss Jiang's knife can stab that kind of wound when it is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, Brother Yuan, have you found a weapon similar to a thin sword in Miss Jiang's residence?"
Yuantai: "This ......"
The lord of the valley: "You all retreat first, although Miss Jiang has ruled out the suspicion for the time being, but as an assassin in Taohuawu, the old man still can't let you go easily, please stay in the village for the time being and wait for the case to be clarified."
"It's rare for you to come to the cold house, the old man has prepared some wine and food in the front hall, and he is a guest, please stay and don't be impatient, please."
After a while, everyone sat down, Jiang Yanzi was injured and returned to the house first, and there were more disciples guarding the door. Li Kunlun, Chu Nanfeng, Xiao Rui, and Mengzhen sat at the same table, and Wang Xu, Lehua and the disciples of the Medicine King Valley sat together.
As soon as Monk Mengzhen sat down, he no longer cared about his image, and directly grabbed the wine and meat with his bare hands and devoured it, Li Kunlun looked shocked, but Chu Nanfeng shook his head with a smile It seems that he has already seen this meeting.
"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to be young, not only do you have courage, but you also have a good brain, I, Chu Nanfeng, admire the young hero the most, and I will be useful in the future, just say hello" Chu Nanfeng no longer looked at Mengzhen and said to Li Kunlun.
Li Kunlun: "Brother Chu's words are serious, I just don't want Miss Jiang to be wronged"
"Master Li Xiaoshi is a person with Buddha nature," Meng Zhen puffed out his cheeks and muttered such a sentence with a mouth full of food.
Everyone was amused by Mengzhen's appearance, but Xiao Rui was sullen, and Li Kunlun probably guessed the reason.
"Brother Xiao, can you show me your wood chips," Li Kunlun asked
Xiao Rui looked up at Chu Nanfeng, Chu Nanfeng nodded slightly, and Xiao Rui took out the wooden block.
Li Kunlun took it in his hand and looked at it, and sure enough, it was a piece of bamboo fragment with pulp as Chu Nanfeng said before, but this valley was full of things made of bamboo, what could this mean, and then he picked up the bamboo piece and smelled it, and suddenly noticed something, and immediately recovered his expression and returned the bamboo piece to Xiao Rui.
After the banquet, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Li Kunlun was relieved that the swordsman went to visit.
"Little ghost, you're here" The valley lord was doing acupuncture, and the swordsman was densely filled with silver needles, which was very terrifying.
"Lord Qiugu, senior Wei, he ......" Li Kunlun was a little shocked when he saw this scene, and hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry, he can't die with me, but it will take some time to get out of bed," the valley lord saw Li Kunlun's worries and said while acupuncture.
Li Kunlun: "Great, thank you over there, Lord Qiu, by the way, some of the changes of clothes from Senior Wei are still in the inn, I want to go and get them."
"I don't know what kind of ecstasy this guy gave you to make you so obsessed, go ahead"
After Li Kunlun saluted, he walked out of the house and was about to leave the village, but when he walked to the gate of the villa, he was stopped by two disciples.
"Boy, the master has an order, non-Zhuang disciples are not allowed to leave until the matter is clarified," a green-shirted disciple said.
Li Kunlun "Two big brothers, I'll go back to the inn to get some change of clothes for Senior Wei, and I'll be back soon, just now the valley lord has already agreed."
"Okay, take the master's token"
"Token, I'm in a hurry, the valley lord is treating senior Wei's injuries, it's not good for me to bother again, and please let the two eldest brothers be accommodating"
"Senior brother seems to take good care of this kid, besides, this hairy little ghost can't be a murderer, let him go, lest the senior brother be unhappy," the two disciples whispered.
"Forget it, go and come back quickly"
"Thank you, big brother," Li Kunlun bowed and walked towards the inn.
