27. Things in the rivers and lakes

There is a large compound in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is used by the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to dispatch and listen to orders.

There is a crane pond in the courtyard that sprays water, there is a pavilion on the pool, every summer, the cool breeze is blowing, the lotus leaves are fragrant, the emperor likes to come here to enjoy the cool fishing.

On this day, Ouyang Qing sat in the pavilion, Bao Ziyun sat opposite, and the two muttered but didn't know what to say.

On the stone table, there are several delicate side dishes, two large pots of wine, and two exquisite Persian wine glasses.

Ouyang Qing played with the transparent Persian wine glass in his hand and said, "Chief Bao wants me to deal with your father-in-law and the others?" Bao Ziyun nodded hurriedly.

Ouyang Qing smiled and said: "Although Zhang Qing is named Heavenly Demon, he doesn't know who it is, let alone who the core figure is?

There are not many first-class masters in Dali Temple now, even if you use the excuse to get rid of Wen Xing and barely succeed, but no one is available, once you don't do it well, Dali Temple and my head will disappear. After speaking, he casually made a posture of wiping his neck, and his teeth were spurted, which was very scary.

Bao Ziyun said with a smile: "Don't worry, the emperor will hand it over to me, and it will definitely not affect you!"

Ouyang Qing smiled and said: "Since Manager Bao has such a great ability, why not just let Jin Wuwei kill him, no matter how high Zhang Qing's martial arts are, he is still far behind in front of the Great Internal Forbidden Army?"

Bao Ziyun was greatly embarrassed.

Ouyang Qing patted Bao Ziyun on the shoulder, and said coldly: "Bao Ziyun, we all eat royal meals! You are a smart person, you must not commit a royal taboo in doing things, you really want to lose your head, not just talking!"

Then he said loudly: "Farewell!"

Turning around, he got up, and before leaving, he leaned on Bao Ziyun's ear and said: "Heavenly Demon Martial Arts, I can't fight alone, even if there are three, I may not be his opponent, this plan must be seamless, and everyone will be finished."

Bao Ziyun didn't know that there were such considerations, and the cold sweat on his face blurred his eyes.

Luo Bing drove the carriage, pulled Chu Qiuyan, and went out of the city to find Chu Qiuyu.

Chu Qiuyu was in the green tile house in the mountains last time, and this time he didn't know if he was still there, so he had to walk all the way and shout loudly, Chu Qiuyu, Chu Qiuyu.

Luo Bing's voice was loud, and he shouted loudly all the way, I don't know how many people shouted.

shouted that at ten o'clock in the afternoon, almost in front of a nunnery, a masked nun signaled Luo Bing not to shout loudly, and gestured for him to go to the foot of the mountain to wait, Luo Bing was overjoyed.

Not long after, Chu Qiuyu took off his mask and hurriedly ran up, took a pulse for Chu Qiuyan, his expression changed greatly, and he looked at Luo Bing and said, "What kind of poison is in her, how can it be entrenched in the meridians so deeply?"

Luo Bing said respectfully: "I don't know who poisoned it so deeply for half a day, and as for the depth of the toxicity, I don't understand." ”

Chu Qiuyu pried open Chu Qiu's mouth, fed a sip of water that had turned into pills, and drove Luo Bing to a red-tiled house opposite the blue-tiled house last time.

Carried Chu Qiuyan to the back room, took acupuncture medicine for her, and said to Luo Bing on the side: "What she has is cold poison, but not cold ice palm, I don't know who can give her this poison, but it's strange." “

Chu Qiuyu nodded and said softly, "You go out, I'm going to untie her clothes." ”

Luo Bing bowed and exited, closing the door.

Sitting at the door of the house, he picked up the freshly picked cucumber and gnawed it without washing it, feeling depressed and anxious, but there was no wine to drink. The time of sitting is the hardest, although it is only less than an hour, for Luo Bing, it seems that 10,000 years have passed.

Chu Qiuyu's internal skills are also extremely exquisite, circling around Chu Qiuyan's body, moving his palms like the wind, Luo Bing only heard a slight crackling sound outside, and he knew that Chu Qiuyu had cycled over and over again, and in an hour, he opened up the eight veins of the retrograde strange meridians, pushing the palace through the cold.

Luo Bing admired it in his heart, and he was also very fond of Fusang martial arts.

But I passed out all night,

At dawn, Chu Qiuyu and Chu Qiuyan were gone, Luo Bing panicked, and when he went out, he saw that the carriage was gone.

Luo Bing felt hatred in his heart at this time, and all of them turned to the Headless Heavenly King, and half of Swamp Xiaoyue's face was vividly visible.

He didn't think if it was Chu Qiuyu who took Chu Qiuyan away, the first thing was to suspect the headless Heavenly King in the swamp, which showed that a huge shadow had been caused in his heart.

Outside Luoyang City, near the willow forest of Ouyang Qing's ancestral house.

There were two black-clothed people standing in the distance, with black scarves and masks, and when they heard the voice, it turned out to be Li Wuning and Feng Jiuyou.

The two stood side by side outside the willow forest, rubbing their hands excitedly, the hero of the green forest is indeed the hero of the green forest.

Li Wuning's eyes were deep, looking at the mysterious willow forest.

Feng Jiuyou smiled and said, "I don't know what's strange about this willow forest, I don't know how many heroes have been killed, why should we come to troubled waters? Maybe Ouyang Qing is also investigating nearby, wouldn't it be bad if we met it?"

Li Wuning was tidying up and down, and said, "Hehe, curiosity, everyone has it." Since it is said that there are masters, I haven't seen a real master for more than ten years, so I just wanted to see what the king of heaven looks like. ”

Feng Jiuyou persuaded: "That day, Luo Bing and Kongwen went deeper, but they also came out in disgrace, Kongwen has not fully recovered until now, and Luo Bing only proves that the Headless Heavenly King is a human and a real master."

Ouyang Qing neither has the ability nor the courage to go in to investigate, and now he is living a chic life, how sure are we?"

Li Wuning muttered: "We have learned a sword and a skill all our lives, just to use it, if we can't use it, we can learn what he can do." Anyway, it's too dangerous to rush in, and you're right, let's go and see the corpses of those who died here, and study them carefully. ”

Feng Jiuyou asked, "If there are not a hundred or eighty people who die here, whose corpse do you want to see?"

Li Wuning thought about it left and right, and said, "Although those ordinary officials are embarrassed to die, it shouldn't be possible to kill them. It is said that Luo Bing and Ouyang Qing once led countless Jin Wuwei and Qianniu to surround the willow forest, but the next day, the death row prisoners still died tragically, which makes people puzzled. Let's go see the body of this death row inmate. ”

Feng Jiuyou had already investigated everyone's graves, marked them, and led Li Wuning to a dirt mountain not far away.

Feng Jiuyou said: "Although this person has relatives, he doesn't dare to come, for fear that the emperor will punish the family, but Wen Xing can't bear his violent corpse in the wilderness, so he bought a coffin for him, buried him here, and gave his family ten taels of silver." ”

Li Wuning nodded, whistled "shhh

The two friends are really professional, and with a twist of their buttocks, the two dug a big hole, and the coffin was exposed in front of them.

The two friends took out a black wet cloth towel and covered the mouth and nose of Li Wuning and Feng Jiuyou, and suddenly there was a pungent smell, took a deep breath, and suddenly pried open the coffin.

A foul smell came from the board, but luckily the wet cloth towels of the two underworld friends blocked most of the smell.

The wind is nine quiet, but it is closer.

Although the corpse began to decompose, there was a layer of green corpse oil on it, and the stomach was swollen, and I was afraid that maggots were about to grow at the sight of the wind.

But the general body size is still there, Feng Jiuyou works underground all year round, and said strangely: "This person was dead before Luo Bing went to Shaolin Temple, and now it has been more than half a month, why is the body so well preserved?"

Li Wuning twisted his nose and replied: "Ouyang Qing put the body in the ice cellar for more than ten days in order to examine the autopsy, and finally found nothing, so he was buried, and he was still in the coffin, of course the corpse was not seriously decomposed. ”

Li Wuning carefully examined the corpse, only to see a deep strangulation mark on his throat, which was the fatal cause, and then checked other places, but found nothing, and muttered: "It seems that he was strangled to death with a rope, but who can sneak in and kill people?"

Feng Jiuyou said: "It is said that it rained that night, and it was muddy all the way, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it was almost impossible for anyone to be there, not to mention that there were ambushes next to it."

Even if Temol is resurrected, he will not risk his life to sneak into the dangerous place, just to make the world believe in the existence of the headless king here. ”

Li Wuning said angrily: "Speaking of which, you still believe in the Headless Heavenly King, I don't believe it!"

He didn't answer anymore, but looked down at the corpse carefully, holding a clip made of bamboo, left and right.

After a long time, Li Wuning said strangely: "How can this be, the corpse seems to have scars from the front chest, and the deepest traces are on the neck, it seems that the murderer put a rope around the person's chest, and then tightened and strangled him." ”

Feng Jiuyou said: "This is also normal, put it on at will first, and then use force, it's not weird." ”

Li Wuning broke the lips of the dead corpse with a clamp again, and said, "The corpse has a defect in its front teeth, and it seems that it has gnawed on some hard object before his death." I just don't know if it was damaged when it was killed, or if it was damaged a long time ago. ”

Feng Jiuyou listened and smiled: "The meat that falls off first is green, and the meat that falls off later is black. ”

Li Wuning's eyes lit up, and he cocked his thumb and said: "Indeed, if he broke his teeth because he struggled to eat before he died, then it is very likely that he will eat some important evidence, I will see what he eats." ”

As soon as the wrist was flipped, the short knife was cold everywhere, and it was immediately disemboweled.

Feng Jiuyou endured the stench, came over to look, and saw that Li Wuning took out the man's stomach, spread it on the ground, and then spread it out with a shovel.

Li Wuning and Feng Jiuyou have been in the underworld for many years, and they have done a lot of things like killing enemies and disemboweling their stomachs, and they don't think they are angry at the moment.

I turned it over, and there was nothing in it except a little flesh.

Li Wuning was disappointed, sighed again and again, and Feng Jiu smiled and said, "You still have to look at the contents of his intestines, this thing may be more valuable." ”

Li Wuning sighed, continued to work again, and suddenly said, "Look, there is a vine in it!"

Feng Jiuyou looked at it intently, and Li Wuning really pulled out a grass vine from the bloody puddle of things, which was really disgusting.

Li Wuning took out the kettle, carefully cleaned the crumpled grass vine, and looked up and down, left and right for a long time, and couldn't see the clue.

Put the body back, the two underworld brothers next to him, the shovel was flying, and in the blink of an eye, it was exactly the same as before, Feng Jiuyou and Li Wuning also only gave a thumbs-up, and each thanked twenty taels of silver.

The two of them took it, and they left with a thousand thanks.

Feng Jiuyou had already studied the terrain, and led Li Wuning to jump deep into the upper reaches of the mountain spring, which turned out to be a small river.

The two of them didn't mind that the water was still cold, and they didn't mind the existence of the headless king.

After washing in the water for a while, the clothes on his body were already stained with stench and corpse gas, and Feng Jiuyou must have said that he couldn't ask for it. I brought fresh and clean clothes, and I changed them immediately after washing, and I felt refreshed.

Feng Jiuyou was in a state of mind at this time, picked up the grass vine again, checked it meticulously, and sniffed it with his nose closer, and there was no corpse smell and blood at this moment.

Deng Shi shouted, "I see!"

Li Wuning said, "What do you understand?"

Feng Jiuyou asked, "You said that night, it rained heavily here?"

Li Wuning nodded without hesitation, that's for sure, I peeked at the side, got drenched, and went back to drink a few bowls of ginger soup to get rid of the cold.

Feng Jiuyou pointed to the grass vine, straightened his face and said in a deep voice: "Do you know what this is? This is not an ordinary grass and tree, this is called a rose vine."

Many people on our road love to carry it, once the rose vine touches the water, it will crumple tightly, a good thing to kill people and set fires, and sometimes the official can't judge the case. ”

Seeing that Li Wuning looked curious, Feng Jiuyou pointed to the vine in his hand and said, "Look, just now I became a crumpled ball after washing, but now it is dry, and it is the size of a little finger." ”

Then he immersed this Cao Teng in water, and sure enough, the grass stem immediately shrank to the size of a fingernail.

Li Wuning said with a solemn face: "No need to ask, someone must have changed the top one when tying up the death row prisoner that day."

The man had expected the rain and strangled him to death when the water tightened, but he did not need to enter the crime. It's just that this man struggled desperately before he died, and bit off a small piece of it with his mouth for me to find and become evidence!

It's just that this person is very knowledgeable about gossip, yin and yang, and it's amazing to know that it was raining that day. ”

Feng Jiuyou said: "Even if you know so much, what can you do?

Li Wuning said: "What else, naturally talk to Luo Bing about this first, and see how Luo Bing makes a judgment!"

Feng Jiuyou's expression changed greatly, he looked around, and said, "Li Wuning, we are friends with Luo Bing, it's best for you not to ask about this matter, just forget it." ”

Li Wuningqi said: "Why?"

Feng Jiuyou said in a low voice: "The Heavenly Demon is not a traitor, but he is very ambitious, why should you harm him?"

Li Wuning was stunned for a moment, and said: "I know that you have taken refuge in the Heavenly Demon, but you said that the Heavenly Demon did it, I don't believe it, the Heavenly Demon pattern is very big, and it is really meaningless to do these small things?"

Feng Jiuyou shook his head: "I used to be favored by him and it was inconvenient to say much, but if you are an enemy of the Heavenly Demon, the consequences will be unspeakable, and Lu Changfeng is the best example." ”

Li Wuning said angrily: "What do you mean, I am the Green Forest Sword Saint, how can I be afraid of him?"

Feng Jiuyou sighed and said in a low voice: "The Heavenly Demon has collected a group of strange people in the early stage, and now there are many old subordinates on the network, among which the masters are like clouds, all over the world, and there are people in the black and white in the criminal rivers and lakes, all of whom are working hard for him, not to mention that what he does is not an act that hurts the heavens and reason, why should the old brother be an enemy of him? Why not follow him and do something big?"

Li Wuning suddenly said: "I see, it's a pity that my Sword Saint Wind Bone is not blind?"

Feng Jiuyou persuaded again: "The Heavenly Demon is nothing more than wanting to gain power and get back what you used to have, as long as you establish your own prestige with him, when the time comes, you can get rid of the Heavenly Demon and replace it!"

Heavenly Demon Zhicong had a vicious battle with the Tiemoller couple, and his muscles and bones were broken, and his martial arts were abolished. If it weren't for Wuyue's mercy, he would have had to be cut off by Temol on the spot. ”

Li Wuning stared at Feng Jiuyou, looked at it again and again, and sneered for a long time: "We have a fight with Luo Bing brothers, and we don't want to say more."

Although I was born in the underworld, I used to kill people without counting, but I did not kill righteous people. As far as I am concerned, what is the use of gold, silver, jewelry, and things outside my body? I am accustomed to living a leisurely life, and it is better to live in the rivers and lakes in a chic way. ”

Feng Jiuyou said: "I don't advise, I have something unspeakable, my brother can take it himself......"

Li Wuning smiled and walked away, and said: "I only like to drink with my good brothers, talk about the sky, and be happy in the rivers and lakes.

Suddenly turned his head and glared at Feng Jiuyou: "Tell the Heavenly Demon not to harm Lu Changfeng and Luo Bing again, otherwise the friendship between you and me will be cut in two!"

There was wind under his feet, and his body was far away, and a voice came from a distance of more than ten zhang: "Luo Bing often said, the rivers and lakes are carrying wine, and Chu's waist is slender and his palm is light." It is enough to have wine, beauties and brothers, the wind is nine secluded, don't be fascinated by fame!

The people in the rivers and lakes do the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and it is our foundation to eliminate the evil and help the weak. “
