Volume 1: The Seven Stars of the Twilight of the World Chapter 61 Sun Yi's Investigation of the Case
Lord Liang was thinking about it, but suddenly there was a terrible shout from the next person in the east wing,
"Help, come on!"
This made Lord Liang feel shocked, and he didn't care about his disheveled clothes, so he rushed out of the study and went straight to the east wing where the voice came from.
The one living in the east wing is the protagonist of tonight, Mrs. Liang. The old lady was very old, and after accepting the birthday greetings from the guests, she couldn't bear the noise of the banquet and went back to the room early to rest. Liang Zhoufu felt bad when he heard the shouting, and he who had always been calm began to panic inexplicably for some reason.
Seeing that there were constantly families rushing over around him, he calmed down a little, and instructed a subordinate with sharp legs and feet, "Go, go to the banquet in the front yard and find Sun Yi, by the way, remind him to bring a few more subordinates." ”
Liang Zhengsheng became the state capital, and Sun Yisun caught the natural chicken and dog to ascend to heaven, and also became the state capital guard, and recruited some good players on weekdays. Liangzhou Mansion and Sun Yi know each other well, and they can be relied on when something happens.
When Liang Zheng and Sun Yi met in the east wing, a thick bloody breath came in the air, and a night patrol was pale with fright, and he sat at the door, and the voice of help came from his mouth.
"What's going on?"
Liang Zheng blamed and vigilantly inspected privately, he knew that in the past few years, for the sake of political achievements, he had offended many people, so he was naturally extra careful everywhere, but he didn't expect the thief to be so bold and dare to break into his Liang mansion.
Although Sun Yi on the side was already in good health, fortunately, the subordinates he brought were all capable strong men, each holding a blade and holding the exit of all parties.
"Big, big, adult, just now the little one passed by the grandfather's door, and heard an unusual movement in the house, so he immediately went in to investigate......
"What do you see?" Liang Zheng asked anxiously.
"See, see, see Grandpa's head being put on the table!" the last sentence of the family was almost shouted, because it took him a long time to save the courage to say this, as if as long as he said this, the terrible scene just now would be repeated in front of his eyes.
"Ah?!" Liang Zheng was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, Sun Yi next to him pointed to two of his subordinates, and completely pushed open the door of the hidden room, and the others were on guard, while these two people cautiously sneaked into the room to investigate.
In the east wing of the Liang Mansion, everything is in order. This is a two-entry house, near the door is the living room, on the tea table in the center of the living room, there is a delicate white jade plate, the plate was originally placed some southern longevity peaches, now these peaches are neatly stacked on the side, and in the middle of the plate, there is a white human head.
In the bedroom, there was a tall carved bed of pear wood, and the gold grosgrain was slightly messy, and a headless corpse was hidden in it, steaming blood, still dripping from the neat incision in the neck.
The two spies searched around, but there was no one else in the room except for the corpse of a maid who had fallen next to the big bed. had to withdraw to report to Sun Yi.
"What?" Liangzhou Mansion on the side listened to the report, his scalp was numb, and someone cut this old man into a different place under his nose, at his father's birthday banquet, and what was even more terrifying was that no one in the whole house noticed it, which made him very angry, and at the same time, he couldn't help but be afraid, the people who came were obviously aimed at him, but what was the purpose of this trick to kill chickens and monkeys?
Sun Yi's many years of catching fast was not in vain, he immediately divided his subordinates into three groups, one group began to continue the search inside and outside the mansion, beware of the assassins still hiding in the mansion, and the other group followed him to the wing room to investigate carefully again to see if the thieves would leave some clues, and the last group of two people with the best skills personally protected the life of Lord Liang Zhengliang.
At this moment, Liang Zheng and Sun Yi have their own thoughts, and they have been partners in the officialdom for many years, and they have a feeling of facing the enemy together.
After exploring the scene, Sun Yi leaned close to the ear of Liangzhou Mansion and reminded softly, "The old lady's neck was cut by a sharp weapon, and even the belt bones were cut as smooth as a mirror. ”
Liang Zheng felt that his neck was also starting to feel cold, and subconsciously touched the back of his neck, and suddenly remembered something, "Do you remember the sword I captured from the self-proclaimed Sword Saint descendant?"
Back then, this sword was snatched by Liang Zheng from the dying hairy boy with his own hands, how could Sun Yi not know, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, "My lord, what do you mean?"
"That sword was just stolen. ”
This sentence shook Sun Yi's head, and he blurted out, "Could it be that that kid didn't die back then?"
"I want to ask you, Master Sun!" Liang Zheng's face was gloomy, Sun Yi, who had been with him for many years, could understand Liang Zheng's face, and knew that this look showed that the ruthless boss had another murderous intention, but he didn't know if what he wanted to kill was the young man whose life and death were uncertain, or his own unfavorable subordinates, or whether they both wanted to kill.
Sun Yi hurriedly lowered his hand, "Lord Liang, don't worry, my subordinates will take someone to investigate clearly." Taking advantage of the fact that the Liangzhou Mansion had no further instructions, Sun Yi took a subordinate and fled out of the door, and when the night breeze blew, he suddenly sobered up a lot, and Sun Yi felt that his back was already soaked with sweat.
He inexplicably remembered the stone cliff tragedy back then, he was indeed soft for a while, and he did not hit the vital point of the young man, but Li Chongguang was already seriously injured at that time, and he fell directly into the river below from such a high cliff, and it was impossible to have a chance to survive.
After thinking about it, he decided to contact his old friend Qinghu first.
Sun Yi and Qinghu also became old friends after the Battle of Stone Cliff. Although they all worked under Liang Zheng before, the snake walked the snake road, the rat walked the mouse road, and they did not go to each other.
Seeing that Liang Zheng and his cruel way stabbed Li Wanzong's family of three in public, the two began to make eye contact at the scene.
They all felt that working under a murderous person like Liang Zheng would die a tragic death like Li Wanzong at any time, so the two secretly communicated with each other, although they didn't say anything, but they also tacitly knew each other, and wanted to leave themselves a way back in the future.
Of course, Sun Yi didn't dare to contact Qinghu publicly on weekdays, because this was also something that Liang Zheng was taboo about. Now that the murder case of Liangfu is urgent, he can finally visit in the name of the detective, and Sun Yi naturally can't ask for it.
When the two met, they retreated left and right, leaving only the two of them to enter Qinghu's secret room to discuss.
"If the other party is really just stealing the sword, there is really no need to kill an old lady in his 80s. Qinghu's news arrived before Sun Yi, and he couldn't help but pout.
Sun Yi was faintly uneasy in his heart, "Have you ever asked a friend on the road to inquire about the remnants of this Sword Saint lineage?"
"Please rest assured that Lord Sun has confessed before that Lord Liang has been searched in many ways. The Sword Saint Vein is a legend at best, and you know, those ordinary people like to pass on some things that the gods and gods are talking about to fool themselves. Haven't all the ancestral halls of their Li family been designed by Lord Liang? Besides, Lord Liang acted too ruthlessly, and it didn't necessarily mean that the remnants of the Li family were making waves. ”
"Alas, yes, this Lord Liang ......" Sun Yi said to his lips, quickly swallowed again, and patted Qinghu on the shoulder, "You and I both know too much, I just hope we can have a good ending." ”
This made the Qinghu boss think it was true, and now he has more than 100 people under his command, and there is no need to go out in person to rob the house, and even sometimes take out the food in the cottage to help the villagers who are hungry nearby, and those who can't figure out the situation may be grateful to this Qinghu great good man.
After all, fighting and killing are inseparable from young blood. And when you are old, you naturally want a stability.
Coming out of Qinghu's cottage, Sun Yi did not obtain any useful information. He rushed back with two of his subordinates, and when he thought that he would not be able to pay to the state capital when he went back, he was depressed, but unconsciously took the two of them to the Li family ancestral hall not far away.
Liang Zheng has always done things without leakage, after seizing the Li family's property and sword, in order to prevent future troubles, in the name of the same party, he exterminated the remaining relatives and friends of the Li family, and these things were also done by Sun Yi in accordance with Liang Zheng's instructions.
When Sun Yi acted, he specially confirmed again and again that this so-called descendant of the Sword Saint had already been passed down by Li Chongguang's generation. The only thing that maintains the prestige of the Sword Saint is the sword that was snatched away by Liang Zheng.
In the end, Sun Yi burned down the Li family ancestral hall, and he should have burned the last legend about the Sword Saint.
Now that Sun Yi has returned to the Li family ancestral hall again, the ruins and broken walls are almost covered by chest-high weeds, and only one charred beam is still stubbornly standing in the setting sun, and the beam of the house drags out a long oblique shadow in the grass.
Sun Yi beckoned two of his subordinates to look around and confirm that there was nothing unusual here.
But the three of them turned around and just wanted to leave, when suddenly there was a loud bang behind them, and they were all shocked, and they turned their heads to see that the black beam, which was still strong just now, was broken into two.
Sun Yi's many years of catching fast has made him more sensitive to danger than ordinary people, and when the two subordinates were still looking around, Sun Yi had already pulled out the waist knife on his body.
Sun Yi, who was holding a knife in his hand, was motionless like a sculpture, and the other two were also half-squatting in the grass, looking around nervously.
They were silent for a long time, except for the quacking of a flying crow, and there was no movement.
"My lord, it's probably been a long time, and the wood has rotted and broken by itself. One of his subordinates asked timidly, looking for this explanation to give himself courage.
Sun Yi didn't say anything, his eyes signaled the three of them to get together, back to back in a circle, guarding the surroundings together, and then commanded the circle formed by the three people, and slowly moved to the broken beam, Sun Yi looked at the section, smooth as a mirror, like the neck of the old lady Liang was cut.
The other two followed Sun Yi's gaze and also saw the neat section, and couldn't help but become more nervous.
"My lord, let's get out of here. The voice of his subordinate trembled faintly.
Sun Yi smiled bitterly, "If the other party wants to keep us, it is impossible for us to leave." ”
He simply put away his waist knife and bowed his hand, "This master, I don't know what advice you have, you might as well show up, my grandson will definitely listen to you." ”
There was silence all around, and there was no response, and his subordinates approached Sun Yi again, "My lord, could it be a ghost ......" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sun Yi, "What the hell is in this broad daylight?"
Sun Yigang wanted to glare back at this subordinate, but he saw a terrible scene, a red line ran along the subordinate's forehead to his chin, through his bare neck and into his collar. As the red line moved, his subordinates' bodies began to split in half along the red line, and immediately, the blood at the crack of the red line splattered violently, and the two halves of the body seemed to be pushed apart by the force of the splash, and fell to both sides. Sun Yi smelled a familiar smell, a thick smell of blood.
"Ahh
Sun Yi also wanted to run wildly, but found that his legs no longer obeyed, and his own words just now echoed in his mind, "If the other party wants to keep us, it is impossible for us to leave." ”
Closing his eyes and sighing, he remembered in a trance the legend he heard when he investigated the descendants of the Sword Saint, the unparalleled sword qi of the Sword Saint, opening mountains and rivers, indestructible, and invisible, this sword qi can cut off all existence in the world, not to mention flesh and blood.
