ps: Thank you Xiaoxing for the reward, and thank Danle, Frankfang, White Horse Thin, and Dark Fallen Angel for their monthly ticket encouragement.

That night, everyone requisitioned the Zou family's mansion. Because Zou Fengzhi happened and confessed to the crime, all the family property was seized, and the family members were driven to the wing room to be strictly guarded. As for the inspectors of the Fangtang of the Vientiane Academy, as well as a group of county officials and others, how much windfall money was made in the process of sealing and searching, Pei Zhongze couldn't control it, and Zhao Ran had no idea of restraint.

This group of people is quite hard-working, and it is easy to ask for some benefits, which can be regarded as the meaning of the question, if it is too strict, who will give you your life in the future? Of course, Wei Tang Master and Zhang Bantou, who led the team, came together, and the five thousand taels of silver tickets in both hands were also unceremoniously laughed at by Zhao Ran. Pei Zhongze is the same, who said that a monk is really not a fireworks? Without the support of huge financial resources, where does the elixir come from? Where does the talisman come from? Where does the magic weapon come from?

Not only the Zou family, but also the Li family. Li Mazi's wife died early, he himself has no children under his knees, and all the affairs in the village are handled by Aunt Zhao, and now Aunt Zhao is involved in the case, no matter how convicted in the end, the Li family's Wanguan family wealth cannot be kept anyway. The inspectors of the Vientiane Institute and the county government officials rushed to Lijiazhuang overnight, in order to arrest the suspect Aunt Zhao and count the family wealth by the way.

Late at night, Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze sat in the courtyard chatting, and the crying of the Zou family's inmates came from time to time in the side room of the miscellaneous courtyard next door. Pei Zhongze sighed: "If a person is careless, the innocent is involved, and the Zou family is defeated; not only the Zou family, but even the Li family has not been pleased, so you can't be careless in making friends, making friends like Zou Fengzhi, Li Zhong is not only dead and his family is destroyed, but now he doesn't even have an incense inheritance." It's a pity. ”

Zhao Ran was a little surprised: "I thought that the senior brother would count the blame on Li Zhong's concubine Aunt Zhao." ”

Pei Zhongze said: "Although Aunt Zhao is hateful, but a weak woman, where can so many disasters happen, it is still Zou Fengzhi's problem......

Zhao Ran joked: "It's still Li Zhong's problem after all. ”

Pei Zhongze was stunned for a moment, and Zhao Ran smiled: "If Li Zhong doesn't return in the middle of the night......"

Halfway through the words, the two of them shouted at the same time: "Li Zhong really has a problem!"

Both are cultivators. Not sleeping in the middle of the night is nothing, but it is just a hardship for the Taoist priests, inspectors and officials who followed. Everyone was kicked out of the bed by Zhao Ran, took Zou Fengzhi sleepily, and immediately went to the Li family's mansion in Shehong County, and arrived early the next morning.

Most of the martial arts giants such as Li Zhong and Zou Fengzhi are also local landlords, so their homes are outside the city. Li Zhong's body was buried under the river embankment two miles northeast of Li's house, because it had been many days later, when it was dug up. It smells rancid.

After Zou Fengzhi burst out and killed people, he didn't have the heart to search for Li Zhong at all, so the officials could easily find a blanket from Li Zhong. The blanket was unfastened, and a pile of things was poured out of it, including several large silver tickets, a pile of loose silver, two pieces of yellow paper, and a silver medal that was about an inch square.

Pei Zhongze picked up the yellow paper and glanced at Zhao Ran, and the two of them suddenly perked up.

These are the two lowest-level fireworks talismans, which are so ordinary for cultivators that they can't be more ordinary. But for a layman who has not yet entered the threshold of cultivation, it is very unusual.

Zhao Ran flipped through the silver tickets. Seeing that they were all one hundred taels of tickets, they naturally stuffed them into their arms, and the remaining dozens of taels of silver were divided between the inspectors and the officials, and everyone was smiling, and the exhaustion was swept away. He picked up the silver medal again and looked at it carefully, and saw that there was a spiritual power fluctuation on it. So he handed it to Pei Zhongze.

Pei Zhongze took it and looked at it, saw that there was a snake carved on the front, frowned, and returned it to Zhao Ran. Zhao Ran asked all the inspectors of the square hall and the county government officials of the Vientiane Academy, but everyone didn't know each other. asked Zou Fengzhi again, and Zou Fengzhi was also at a loss.

After searching the body, everyone entered the Li family's mansion again, and Aunt Zhao and the Li family's servants were detained in the firewood room by the officials who arrived yesterday. Zhao Ran gave an order, and everyone began to search for clues in various rooms.

Just after searching for a while, a servant came back and forth with a stack of manuscript paper: "Immortal Master, this is from the study, please take a look at it." ”

Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze looked at the manuscript paper, and saw some lines drawn horizontally and vertically on it, and there were numbers and the words "Heaven and Earth" next to it. Zhao Ran was puzzled: "What is this? It looks like a geometric figure?"

Pei Zhongze was puzzled: "Geometry?"

Zhao Ran said: "Well, it is the knowledge of calculating the area, shape, and length of the land......"

The official praised: "The immortal master is really knowledgeable, this is the art of the mechanism, the little one has caught the thief who digs the grave before, and he has seen such a thing." ”

Zhao Ran came to his senses, asked people to bring Zou Fengzhi over, and asked, "Li Zhong is good at the art of organs?"

Zou Fengzhi replied: "Li Zhong used to make a living from the tomb when he was young, and he admitted that the martial arts he learned were the secrets he got from the tomb. ”

Pei Zhongze also figured it out, and was overjoyed at the moment, urging everyone to step up their search for more clues.

just searched the bottom of the day, but there was no more valuable discovery, so Aunt Zhao was pulled over for interrogation. Where has Aunt Zhao seen this battle, she really knows everything and says everything.

At that moment, according to Aunt Zhao's confession, the inspectors of the Taoist Academy and the county officials were divided into two teams, one team rushed to the county seat to copy and inspect the house of Zhang Dekun, a wealthy family in the county, and the other team went to Dadianzhuang in the west of the county to search for the martial artist Chen Dajiang.

These two people have a close relationship with Li Zhong, especially the wealthy Zhang Dekun, who is himself a famous tycoon in the martial arts of Tongchuan Mansion, and his kung fu has been perfected, and he is the top first-class person in the rivers and lakes. According to Aunt Zhao's identification, Li Zhong has been to Zhang Dekun's house twice this year, at least three or five days, and at most ten days and eight months before returning.

As soon as Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze discussed, they focused on Zhang Dekun, so they led most of the people to the county seat.

Zhang Dekun's family is in Zhongyifang, the county seat, and the house occupies a small half of the alley, which is really a big business. Outside Zhang's house, Wei Tangtou and Zhang Bantou immediately divided the staff into four teams, one team blocked the back door, two pairs of people went around the house to monitor and prevent Zhang Dekun from jumping over the wall, and the team with the most people entered from the main gate to search for the suspect Zhang Dekun.

The assignment has been decided, and dozens of people have broken into the alley with their blades, stuck both ends of the alley, and blocked it tightly. A servant stepped forward and knocked on the door loudly, and the gatekeeper of Zhang's mansion came out to take a look, and shrunk his neck in fright: "What is the purpose of your come?"

The official shouted: "Is your master here? Zhang Dekun is not there?"

The porter said timidly: "My lord is taking a nap, you have something to do, but please instruct, the little one will go and tell the master." ”

The official grabbed the concierge's neck and pushed him straight into the house: "Zhang Dekun has happened! Where is he? Lead the way in front of the head, don't call it, otherwise you will be allowed to taste the taste in the black prison!"

The inspector of the Daomen Fangtang and the county government officials were all people who handled the old case, and they immediately rushed in, and preemptively sealed the doorways and corridors in various places, and when they encountered the screaming domestic servants, they were directly tied up and escorted to the front of the main hall and knelt down in rows.

The concierge of Zhang's house had been frightened by the wolf-like inspectors and officials, and he didn't dare to resist a little, so he was pushed by the officials and quickly came to a small courtyard, and then pointed to the middle wing.

Zhang Bantou looked at him, and five or six officials came out of the crowd, and all kinds of objects such as iron rulers, water and fire sticks, ropes, etc., were all lit up, and they covered up towards the door.

Wei Tangtou also instructed his seven or eight square halls to patrol and block several key positions to prevent Zhang Dekun from escaping.

A few officials had just tiptoed to the door when they heard a "snap" sound, and the door fell from the inside out. This explosion was sudden, and one of the officials was immediately crushed to the ground by the fallen door, and the rest of the officials dodged quite wolfly.

I saw an old man with a white beard and white hair standing in front of the door, although he was old, he was quite slender, especially his eyes were blazing, and he looked very majestic.

Zhang Bantou shouted: "Zhang Dekun, you have committed something, do you still want to resist?"

This old man is Zhang Dekun, a famous martial arts tycoon in Tongchuan Mansion, he looked at Zhang Bantou and said contemptuously: "The surname is Zhang, just because you also want to stop the old man?"

Wei Tangtou said coldly: "Zhang Dekun, the so-called two fists are hard to beat four hands, no matter how good your kung fu is, there are so many of us, do you think there is still a fluke today? (To be continued......)
