Chapter Twenty-Four: Silk Appearance

The death of Han Shiqi, the killer of Jinpeng Castle, was quickly revealed, but how to deal with the people involved became a headache for many people.

The eighth young lord Shangguan is angry and unfavorable, and there are enough things that do not go well, but Han Shiqi is the killer in his courtyard, and the two murderers are the dowry slaves brought by his new wife.

Half relying on various gossip, half relying on his own analysis, Gu Shenwei was able to roughly guess what happened in those suffocating three days.

Qi Nu was arrested, and the other six teenagers were immediately sent back to the Accumulation Hospital, where they were imprisoned again, and the news was not clear, and they were only delivered once a day, and the two bodies were not disposed of, and they had begun to decompose, and the smell gradually spread throughout the courtyard and into the room where the teenagers lived.

For three days, they spent three days in fear, whiplash scars, everyone peeled off each other's hard scabs, and waited silently for the final verdict, which was the last time for several "sworn brothers" to trust and support each other.

Gu Shenwei was especially nervous in his heart, he didn't know what Qi Nu would confess.

The glimpse of Qi Nu in the underground execution chamber of the Xixin Courtyard had already made his heart tremble, and under the torture of all kinds of tricks, most of the people who were older than Qi Nu and had a strong will confess in full.

It wasn't until noon on the fourth day that the door of the West Courtyard was finally opened, and the Progressive Salary Institute ushered in a new hospital manager.

The first thing the new hospital manager did when he took office was to open the door of the east courtyard and dispose of the two corpses.

The corpses had already given birth to maggots, which were disgusting to look at, but the teenagers were elated and had work to do when they were carried away, as if to indicate that they had been forgiven.

Sure enough, after the room where the corpses were stored was thoroughly cleaned, the new hospital manager announced: The Salary Yard will be reopened, and the teenagers will continue their old duties, and everything will remain the same.

In fact, everything has changed.

The new wardener refused to live in the Accumulation Hospital, came early and left late, locked the gate of the courtyard firmly when he was away, and the movement of the teenagers was more restricted than before, even the greeting to the young lady every morning was canceled, the water carrying place in the fort was also strengthened, and the empty barrels that were not used temporarily were all removed.

Among the first batch of injured people after the reopening of the Progressive Hospital, there was a former hospital manager Han Jinu, who endured much heavier torture than the teenagers, but he saved his life, and the other injured were thrown off the ghost cliff one after another, and he was the only one who slowly recovered.

But Han Jinu became silent, often did not speak all day, he lost his backer, also lost his status, the future is unpredictable, one night, he was just able to get up and walk, he hanged himself with the belt on his body, the body hung on the door frame of the West Courtyard Gate, dangling, only to be found the next morning.

His death was uneventful, no one asked, the teenagers threw the body into the cliff, and some even complained that the front yard manager was not considerate enough, since he was going to commit suicide, why didn't he just jump off the cliff?

Another day, the teenagers saw Qi Nu's corpse, and his body was in a different place, and he was carried directly to the Ghost Cliff by two men in black.

Gu Shenwei, who had long been accustomed to seeing dead people, couldn't hold back and vomited, and the other teenagers also turned their backs, their faces were pale, and they hadn't eaten much all day.

Within two days, Xie Nu was also arrested, and the young man resisted too fiercely, and the killers had to kill him directly, and his body was thrown in the wilderness, and his confession was no longer important at that time.

Qi Nu took on everything in the Xixin Courtyard, except for his younger brother, who didn't mention anyone else.

He confessed that he had made the assassination plan himself, nailed a sharp knife under the bed, and then while the man was being held by Xenu, he rolled over and burrowed under the bed to kill the enemy who was having fun.

All the details matched, and several things about Han Shiqi were found on Qi Nu.

Not only that, but in the end, it was also found out that Qi Nu and Xie Nu turned out to be orphans in Daxue Mountain, because of the struggle between several internal peaks, both parents died, and they were sold as slaves.

Daxue Mountain and Jinpeng Fort have always been at odds and are bitter enemies.

Gu Shenwei didn't understand the people of the Great Snow Mountain very much, and at the moment of powerful foreign enemies, they were even killing people inside.

The origin of the brothers added a touch of conspiracy to Han Shiqi's death, and the six teenagers of the Progressive Salary Institute were interrogated again and asked to confess their life stories.

This time, they were not escorted to the Washing Heart Courtyard, but the teenagers were already frightened birds, and once asked, they clearly explained all the experiences of the more than ten years since they were born.

Of course, Gu Shenwei couldn't tell the truth, and it was too difficult to make it up temporarily, so he borrowed the life experience of Yao Nu, so that he became a servant of a merchant in the Western Regions, and once met a robber while traveling with his master and was taken into slavery.

What Haruku said before he died was reversed, and Gu Shenwei had to re-polish it, and it turned out to be so successful that even he almost believed in this experience.

The only problem is that his words don't stand up to proof, and the difference in appearance between him and the sharp-faced Haruku is too obvious.

However, no one went thousands of miles away to confront the merchant from the Western Regions, and after worrying about it for more than ten days, Gu Shenwei confirmed that he had successfully passed the test.

The turmoil gradually subsided, and no one suspected that there was a third conspirator, and there was still a force secretly wanting to end the case as soon as possible and reduce the scope of the impact.

Gu Shenwei was not wrong in the signs of contradiction observed in the torture room, the slender and tall Shen Dao master's name was Shen Liang, he was the head of the Xixin Courtyard, and he was also the uncle of the eighth young master, Shangguan Nu, he represented the interests of his nephew and used the power in his hands to make a big deal small.

The thin Mr. Guo is from the Baiyi Courtyard in Dongbao, although he is not related to any of the young masters, but it is recognized that he has a close relationship with the five young masters, and he is bent on expanding the case to combat the power of the eight young masters.

It is said that the mothers of the two young masters were in the same place during their lifetimes, and they also passed on their hatred to their respective sons after their deaths.

It shows that the eighth young lord Shangguan won this round, the key is that the Dubu King Shangguan Fan himself doesn't want the situation to get out of control, a killer was assassinated by two teenage teenagers, the location is inside Jinpeng Castle, and it is a big scandal to spread it.

The owner of Jinpeng Castle is unwilling to pursue it, so naturally no one will dare to make trouble again.

However, Shangguan Nu's status in his father's mind was so low that it could not be lower, and the eighth son was not only incapable of managing a team of killers, but also could not even manage the internal affairs of his own courtyard, which made Dubu Wang extremely disappointed.

Jinpeng Castle is not monolithic, and knowing this does not help Gu Shenwei, who is now trapped in the Accumulation Hospital, dealing with the dead every day, with only five silent companions around him, and rarely speaking to each other.

Ten teenagers were married with the young lady, and after just over a month, four of them had already died, even in Jinpeng Castle, where "people die every day", this is a frighteningly high ratio, and there is a strong pessimism among the teenagers.

It was in this situation that Gu Shenwei found himself isolated.

The other five teenagers often avoided him, whispering behind his back, showing a hint of fear towards Huannu.

This made Gu Shenwei very inexplicable, he had never bullied anyone, nor betrayed anyone, he also lived at the bottom of Jinpeng Castle, and he did the lowest job, he didn't understand why he became an alternative.

It was many days before he realized that he was different.

His mannerisms, though disguised, were still different from those of children from the mountains, he did not sit on the floor, he habitually washed his hands frequently, he could read and write, and he always walked with his waist straight......

He can also do martial arts, not as good as the killers in the castle, but none of the boys are his opponents.

He is not afraid of ghosts and cliffs, and often goes there alone, sometimes to practice, sometimes to sit, but others are afraid of this place, except for throwing corpses, never set a step.

The evil Yao Nu was the only one by his side when he died, Qi Nu and Xie Nu once wanted to exorcise evil spirits for him, but they turned out to be "evil spirits" to assassinate him, think about it carefully, even the first to die Xiao Nu seems to be a little related to Huan Nu, they were often together at that time.

These were all the thoughts of the five teenagers, Gu Shenwei was a little annoyed at first, but he was quickly relieved, and it was okay that he could practice without interference.

The more than one month he had been in Jinpeng Fort had been the hardest time in his life, and since the whereabouts of the Rapid Method were unknown, he had to pin all his hopes on normal practice.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, he has already given up the idea of revenge as soon as possible.

As long as no one recognizes the identity of the little young master of the Gu family, he can wait patiently until Hopewell is completed, ten years is not enough, twenty years, and the enemy Shangguan Nu is still young and will live until that time.

On the tenth day of the reopening of the Wage Accumulation Academy, the teenagers, who were obviously more and more afraid of Huannu, "gifted" him a surprise joy.

There were no injured people in the hospital that day, and the new hospital manager locked the east courtyard door and left by himself, Gu Shenwei took advantage of this opportunity to go to the ghost cliff to practice, and only returned to the courtyard to eat at noon.

The other teenagers avoided him, so he usually went back to his room to eat alone, and this day was no exception, but this time he had an extra thing on his futon.

A piece of white silk with words on it.

Gu Shenwei almost threw the bowl in his hand to the ground.

He rushed over with an arrow step, put down the bowl, picked up the white silk, and only read the first line of words, and knew that this was the quick way to Hehejin.

He read it greedily, not caring about eating, nor thinking about the origin of the white silk.

After reading it, Gu Shenwei was disappointed.

This is indeed a quick method of changing like a fake, but it is far from the "quick way" he imagined, if you practice harmony and strength normally, you need to reach the ninth layer of yin and yang both strengths, in order to meet the dragon and tiger, according to the quick method, you can combine yin and yang at any level, but the power is not the same.

The text on the white silk says very clearly, Yin and Yang have reached the third layer, and the power will be shown only after the merger, and they will all reach the fifth layer of great power, if you want to be invincible, you must practice to more than seven layers.

It is said to be quick, but in fact, the "speed" is limited.

Father Gu Lun has been practicing hard for decades, and the two energies of yin and yang are the fifth layer, Gu Shenwei has just practiced to the first level, and if he wants to learn something, he doesn't know how long it will be.

However, Gu Shenwei still carefully hid the white silk, thought about it, found it again, and spent an afternoon memorizing the exercises on it to a good degree, and then tore the white silk into pieces and threw it off the cliff.

Since then, there has been no written record of the Gu family's family tradition, and it only exists in the minds of the only descendants.

Now, Gu Shenwei had time to think about who had returned the white silk.

This man was naturally one of the other five teenagers, who kept important items for Haruku, and did not confess even when he was tortured in the temple.

Gu Shen had to find this person.

As for whether to be grateful or get rid of it, it can only be decided first.
