When Lei Luo walked out of the main hall, he came to the courtyard, and Lu Linglong was in the courtyard at this time, staring at an open place to check.

"Did you find anything?" asked Relo.

Because he looked towards that place, he didn't find anything suspicious, so he wondered why Lu Linglong could see any doubts.

"Childe, please look here," Lu Linglong said with a solemn expression, and then pointed to somewhere on the ground in front of him.

And the direction of her finger was a high and low staircase between the courtyard and the wing, and there was nothing unusual about that step, if anything, there were a few dry grasses growing in the cracks between the steps.

"It's withered!" a startled sound came from Lei Luo's mouth, and he knew that something was suspicious.

The grass that grows in the cracks of the steps is generally extremely vigorous, and now it is not a cold winter, and this grass will generally only be shoveled, but it will not wither.

And these dead grasses are only the size of fingernails, even if the maid is cleaning, they may be missed, and with the vitality of the grass and vegetation, such a small grass will not wither.

"These smells have an uncomfortable smell, it's death!" he said with some surprise after sniffing it.

This breath is like the corpse of an animal that has been rotting in a hot and humid place for several months, and those who can have this breath are naturally some people who are contaminated with the breath of death, such as the Ghost Dao Monk!

Lu Linglong also walked to the side of the steps, and then stretched out her slender jade hand to probe it, and then a black gas emitted from the dry grass, and then flew into her palm.

Bringing the palm of her hand close to her face, after Qiong's nose sniffed lightly, she said to Lei Luo: "These dead qi is accompanied by the smell of corpse qi and ghosts, it should be that the ghost monk once stood in this position!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the trace of black gas in her palm dissipated, but the two of them already knew who was standing here.

"Why did that ghost young man from the Barbarian Ghost Sect appear here, and with this person's means, there is no need to let others take action, unless he is not here to kill people!" Lei Luo guessed.

Obviously, this ghost boy brought people here, and then commanded those subordinates to kill the people in the mansion, and he watched the whole process without making a move.

"I remember that when you went to meet those demon path people, they all said that they had their identities on the surface, and it was obvious that this ghost young man participated in this operation with his identity on the surface, and did not reveal that he was an immortal cultivator!" Lu Linglong analyzed.

Lei Luo also nodded after hearing this, obviously agreeing with Lu Linglong's guess, the other party did not come here as a ghost from the Barbarian Ghost Sect, but came from another identity.

"The identity on the face of the ghost Shaoming, the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion who killed them!" he remembered the identity that the other party had said.

After knowing the origin of the murderer, Lei Luo returned to the main room, took out two small jade bottles from the storage bag, and took some blood from the second princess and the concubine.

Looking at the blood in the small jade bottle, his face was as usual, and then he raised his hand and used the fireball technique, burning all the corpses in the mansion to ashes, which can be regarded as letting them return to dust.

After doing this, Lei Luo and Lu Linglong left this mansion in Dongcheng District without stopping, cautiously along the way, and then disappeared into a dim alley.

After confirming that there was no one around, he took out the small black iron box from the storage bag, and then with a force in his hand, he took out the contents of the iron box.

"It turned out to be a few letters!" he said in surprise when he saw the contents of the box.

opened the letter, and he and Lu Linglong read it together with their heads, and the letters were also read by them one by one.

After reading the letter, Lei Luo was quite surprised, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he walked towards the northern part of the capital, obviously mentioning a clue that he needed to find.

......

Inside the capital, Beicheng District.

Xicheng District and Beicheng District are the places where the common people live in the capital, and most of the buildings here are one-story bungalows, and occasionally there may be some two-storey houses, and even some commercial streets in the city are mostly one-story and two-story buildings.

Lei Luo was wearing a black robe and a black hood this time, covering the whole person tightly, without revealing a trace, and then walked towards a blacksmith shop in Beicheng District.

When he came to the door of a shop called 'Qian's Blacksmith', it was already dawn, and the door of the blacksmith shop was slowly open, apparently the blacksmith shop was about to open for business.

Out of the blacksmith came a young man dressed in coarse cloth, yellowish skin, and a rather hard-dressed figure, and this person was the blacksmith of the blacksmith.

Looking at the young man in front of him, skillfully starting the stove, opening the furnace, and then starting to burn iron and forge, Lei Luo took off his hood, and then stood quietly and watched, without stepping forward to disturb.

After waiting for more than an hour, when the number of pedestrians around him began to increase, he still did not take any action, and the young blacksmith was still tinkling in the blacksmith without any problems.

After waiting for a long time, the person who was waiting did not show up for a long time, and Lei Luo didn't want to wait any longer, so he walked straight towards the blacksmith shop.

His outfit naturally attracted the attention of the young blacksmith, so when he walked into it, he naturally attracted the attention of the people inside.

"What kind of ironware do you want to make, this guest officer?" said the young blacksmith, puzzled.

Lei Luo looked at the young man in front of him, he was an ordinary ordinary person, although his body was full of qi and blood, but it was only relative to ordinary people, and he did not have any cultivation in his body.

"I'm a good friend of your father, and I've been in the capital recently, so I'm here to pay a visit!" he explained.

As soon as the words came out, the blacksmith young man was a little puzzled, it was obvious that the person in front of him was about the same age as himself, but he said that he was a friend of his father, which made people a little unbelievable.

"My father is very old, and he has already given me the art of iron-making, and if you want to find your father's iron-making, you can also find me!" said the young man again.

After he said this, his face became a little vigilant, obviously a little suspicious of Lei Luo's identity.

"In that case, I'll go in and look for him myself, and I just happened to find him!" Lei Lu said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he ignored the young man beside him, and walked towards the blacksmith's shop.

The young man just wanted to stop one or two, but found that the whole person could not move, and he couldn't make a sound even if he wanted to shout.

This time it made the young man start to panic, and then the panic turned into panic, because how could a big living person not make a sound, could it be poisoned, or hit a ghost!

Lei Luo didn't look at the young man, and directly made the other party temporarily unable to act with a fixation technique, and he walked through the blacksmith shop and walked into a small courtyard.

In this courtyard, a big man with a beard was watering some vegetables in the courtyard, and beside him there was a plainly dressed woman weaving cloth, and the two looked at the visitor with surprise on their faces.

"Your Excellency is one of the offerings in the royal city back then, known as the money offering of Huoyun Hand!" Lei Luo sneered at the bearded man.

Although the other party's aura is no different from that of ordinary people, even he doesn't see the cultivation, but the qi and blood will not deceive him, this person's qi and blood are beyond ordinary people, and they have almost reached the strength of the eighth or ninth layer of qi training.

"I'm just a blacksmith, and now the craft has been passed down to my son, and I don't know anything about what it is," the bearded man shook his head and denied.

Lei Luo had expected this situation, if the other party admitted it so quickly, he would not have been incognito for so long!

I saw that he sneered, and then rushed to the woman's face with a dodge, took out a flying sword and put it on the other party's neck.

"Daddy, Daddy, help!" came an exclamation.

The bearded man looked at the courtyard with a panicked expression, and saw a woman with a beautiful appearance and a dusty temperament actually walked slowly into the courtyard with her son in one hand.

Lu Linglong threw the iron-striking young man into the courtyard at Lei Luo's signal, and then took out a black umbrella and stood next to the courtyard, looking at the bearded man with a cold face.

The woman was now held by the flying sword to her neck, and her face was even more frightened, and the young man also ran behind the bearded man in a panic, looking at the two of them with a frightened expression.

"In the next, it's really just an iron-striker, I don't know anything else, and please let our family of three go!" said the bearded man with the same panic.

Seeing this, Lei Luo knew that the other party was quite confident in his own methods, and thought that his cultivation would not be exposed, so he was still pretending to be confused here, but he didn't know that he had seen through the other party's cultivation.

"Lei is not a murderer, he just wants to know something about the situation in the royal city back then!" he said with a flat face.

After saying that, he took out all the letters in the iron box, and threw them at the bearded man with a flick of his hand.

The bearded man just raised his hand slightly, and those letters actually flew into his hands, and he began to read them, and when he saw the contents of these letters, he knew that he couldn't hide his identity from the other party.

"Your Excellency is really here to ask some questions, is it really not here to kill our family?" said the bearded man with a solemn face at this time.

Obviously, this person does not trust the other party, and if the situation is not right, he will not hesitate to expose his strength and run away with his wife and children.

Suddenly, two coercive pressures rushed to the bearded man's body.

He felt two incomparable breaths rushing towards him, making his whole face change several times.

"It turned out to be two seniors, I must know everything in the next place!" After realizing that Lei Luo and the others were foundation building monks, he could only compromise.

The bearded man's cultivation did not reach the foundation building, and the other party was two foundation building monks, so he didn't even have a chance to escape.

However, he was also a little shocked, the people who came were two young people, who actually had foundation building cultivation, and they were obviously disciples of the great faction of the Dongyue Kingdom.

At Lei Luo's suggestion, the bearded man explained the reason why he gave up his status as a worshipper and chose to leave the royal city, and then came to live in seclusion in Beicheng District.

Then came to Lei Luo's inquiry, he told the secret that he could hide his cultivation, it turned out that when he was doing loose cultivation, he got a secret method.

This secret method is a secret method for monks to seal the true element of spiritual energy in their bodies by sealing several secret holes in their own bodies.

However, there is a drawback to this secret method, that is, after sealing the true element and reducing the cultivation, the foundation building monk may not even be able to fly the sword.

Fortunately, this secret method is quick to unravel, and there are no side effects, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain from Lei Luo's trip.

After getting the information he wanted, he didn't continue to bother the family, and left the blacksmith shop quickly, without the slightest delay, which made the big man a little baffled.

However, Lei Luo is now a noble soldier, and he doesn't have much spare time to care what the other party thinks.
