Chapter 384: Evil Retribution (4)

A trace of suspicion flashed across Wei Wensheng's face, and he said, "You go on." ”

The officer said: "My subordinates had to lead the army to open the way, and it was easy to lead the water dragon team over, but the fire was extremely vigorous, and where the water swept through, the flames only weakened, and they would not be extinguished." Therefore, the water dragon team has been busy until now to suppress the fire. ”

The ghost said in a low voice: "The fire spirit qi here is far more than ordinary fire, either it is a master who is proficient in fire spirit martial arts, or someone uses a fire spirit artifact to set fire." ”

Wei Wensheng remained silent, stepped forward, and Mrs. Lu Yao saw him coming, and said, "General Wei, I didn't expect to alarm you." This fire is so bad that it opens the eyes of the concubine, could it be that today is the birthday of the fire god's grandfather?"

Wei Wensheng saw that she was gloating, and was secretly angry, and said, "Captain Cheng can have a banquet here tonight." ”

Mrs. Lu Yao sighed and said, "I didn't see Captain Cheng come out." Hey, have you seen it?" Everyone in the audience said no, and Mrs. Lu Yao said: "It's best to be the captain of the fire and escape, and take the opportunity to escape." ”

Wei Wensheng snorted, and as far as he could see, the ground was pitch black, only the iron gate, iron railings and a pile of broken bricks and tiles remained, as for the beams, tables and chairs, etc., all of which had been reduced to ashes, the magnificent and brilliant Beauty Pavilion seemed to have never existed here.

Wei Wensheng called the officer and asked, "When did the fire start?"

The officer said: "Less than half an hour ago, my subordinates discovered the fire. ”

Wei Wensheng said in his heart: "In less than half an hour, how can it be burned so clean?" and asked again: "What about the people of the Beauty Pavilion?"

The officer scratched his head and didn't know, Mrs. Lu Yao said: "The concubine came early, but I saw Boss Zheng and his wife shouting for help in the fire, and before I could send someone to save them, a burning beam was pressed down, and the husband and wife both returned to the west, and no one else escaped from the fire." ”

Wei Wensheng asked a few more people, and when they came, the Beauty Pavilion had collapsed, and no one saw the situation in the early stage of the fire.

Suddenly, his nose twitched, he smelled a scorched smell, and his heart moved: oil. Then he thought: "In just half an hour, if you want to burn down a building, you are afraid that you will have to use nearly a hundred barrels of oil, and there is so much oil in storage, it must be..."

As soon as he turned his eyes, he made eye contact with Lu Xiaoyuan in the crowd, Lu Xiaoyuan also saw him, smiled slightly, and said: "General Wei, it's a pity, Captain Cheng, such a good person who is upright, compassionate, and praised by everyone, why did he go? Alas, it must be that the king of Yama saw that others were too good, and called him to the eighteenth layer of hell to eat hot pot." ”

Wei Wensheng said angrily: "Yuan Liu, you are presumptuous!"

Mrs. Lu Yao smiled and said, "General Yuan is young and can't speak, General Wei, you have a lot, why do you have the same knowledge as him?"

Wei Wensheng saw Lu Xiaoyuan standing between the Li family, and knew that he had united with the Li family, so the burning of the Beauty Pavilion must be indispensable to the participation of the Li family, and glared at Mrs. Lu Yao hatefully, and was furious in his heart, but it seemed that the scene of the fire was controlled by the Li family in the early stage, and there was no evidence to accuse the Li family at this time.

At this time, the two heroes of the golden gun arrived with people, and after asking the reason, they said: "Hou Ye was going to come in person, but he worked hard during the day, how can we as subordinates bear to bother him with this kind of unexpected disaster? ”

Wei Wensheng said: "The momentum of this fire is a bit excessive, and it burns so clean in half an hour, it can't be said to be an accidental disaster." ”

Seeing this, the ghost suddenly said, "I heard that the two of you have a Heaven Burning Pot, which is a high-grade fire spirit artifact?"

Xue Evil Tiger said: "Yes, what?"

The ghost said worriedly: "Can you take it out and let it be seen in the next view?"

Han and Xue were feeling strange, and Lu Xiaoyuan said: "The Burning Sky Pot is here with me." I borrowed the Burning Sky Pot from Brother Han and Brother Xue yesterday to refine the pill. As he spoke, he stepped forward and held the Burning Sky Kettle in his hand.

The ghost saw sorrow and laughed dryly, and said: "General Yuan borrowed the Burning Heaven Pot, and appeared at the fire scene very early, what a coincidence, hehe." ”

The two heroes of the golden gun didn't know anything about the fire at the scene, and when they saw the ghost, they spoke in a weird manner, and said, "Mr. Ghost has something to say, please say it directly." ”

Lu Xiaoyuan smiled faintly and said, "Brother Han, Brother Xue, he suspects that I borrowed the Burning Heaven Pot not for alchemy, but to burn the Beauty Pavilion." He turned to the ghost and said: "Mr. Ghost, the two heroes of the golden gun are not ordinary people, if I have other intentions to borrow the pot, how can I hide it from the eyes of the two of them?"

These words praised the two heroes of the golden gun without a trace, especially Xue Xihu, who was very happy to hear it.

The ghost rolled his eyes and said, "Who knows what kind of rhetoric you used to deceive the two of them." ”

Lu Xiaoyuan said: "Okay, since Mr. Ghost suspects me, I am willing to cooperate with Mr. Ghost's investigation." It's just that Mr. Ghost has something coming at me, don't be embarrassed for Brother Han and Brother Xue. ”

Seeing that what he said was very righteous, the two heroes of the golden gun first had a good impression of him, and then thought that if Wei Wensheng found out that it was Lu Xiaoyuan who set fire to and injured people, and his brothers provided the murder weapons, it would be difficult to escape responsibility, Han Poison Long said coldly: "I'm afraid that Mr. Ghost's investigation of General Yuan also implies the intention of asking my brothers for guilt, right?"

The ghost said lightly: "I just want to find out the truth of the matter, as for who should be guilty of what crime, it should be decided by Hou Ye and General Wei." ”

Xue Vicious Tiger said angrily: "Okay, wow, listening to your words, it means that we are guilty?"

The ghost was reluctant to do anything with the two, so he didn't say a word, and floated backwards, Xue Evil Tiger waved his golden gun and shouted: "Don't go, it's a hero!"

Wei Wensheng said: "Mr. Ghost did not suspect the two, and the two of them don't need to be angry. The tone was a little unkind.

After all, he is a tenth-order general, although the Golden Gun is valued by the Marquis of Jinzhou, and there is a difference between his position and his position, Han and Xue dare not make a mistake.

Wei Wensheng's eyes swept around, and he said coldly: "Wei will definitely investigate this case thoroughly, and he will never let the murderer go unpunished." "Turn and leave.

Mrs. Lu Yao noticed that his eyes were wandering, but the focus was always on herself, so she knew that he was suspicious of the Li family, but her expression was calm, and she just smiled slightly.

The next morning, as soon as Mrs. Lu Yao got up, Yinhuan came to report that Wei Wensheng had come to visit.

Mrs. Lu Yao yawned lazily and said, "Let him wait for me in the restaurant." Yinhuan went out, she simply cleaned up, came to the restaurant, and saw Wei Wensheng sitting on the chair with a gloomy face, and said with a smile: "General Wei, it's early in the morning, who is this angry with?"
