Chapter 08 Night Exploration of the City Lord's Mansion

As the days passed, night began to fall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Thousands of homes are brightly lit and the sky is full of stars.

A spacious and luxurious mansion, silent, unpopular, and pitch black.

The stone lion on the door was stained with blood, the red lantern was also dim, and the plaque with the three big characters "City Lord's Mansion" was cut in half.

This is the place where Linchu had the most power, strength, and power in the past! Unfortunately, it has now declined, and it has not yet been taken over by a new master.

In front of the City Lord's Mansion, Yan Tian and his party of five people looked at this mansion with different moods, but they were all a little sad.

"Compared with the brightly lit City Lord's Mansion in the past, the City Lord's Mansion at this moment is really too bleak," Jia Yi sighed softly.

"This reminds me of Shanshuimen" Li Feng said with some sadness: "The same desolation, the same loneliness......"

"The world is like this, prosperous and changeable, tenderness is fleeting, a moment of vicissitudes, life and death may only be in the morning and night" Yan Tianyi sighed, and then beckoned everyone, "Let's go in!"

The group pushed open the city lord's mansion, and the gate made a "squeak" sound, which sounded a little terrifying.

Yan Tian said as he walked: "During the day today, I sent someone to gather all the rotten corpses in these idle rooms, and they have not been cremated for the time being, that is to say, there are several corpses in all the rooms here now."

"Sounds scary, doesn't it," Jia Yi said with a smile, but he really couldn't see what he found scary.

"Isn't there a living person here?" asked Li Feng as he looked through the moonlight.

"Yes or no," Yan Tianyi replied.

Li Feng and Jia Yi were stunned, "Why do you say that?"

Yan Tianyi smiled and said, "Haven't you heard the rumors, there is actually one person in the City Lord's Mansion who escaped this catastrophe, and that is the old butler Fu Bo."

"By the way, I remembered" Hearing Yan Tianyi say this, the two of them immediately remembered, "Isn't he crazy?"

"Yes, he's crazy," Yan Tianyi sighed, "When we first arrived, we met Fu Bo, who had been with a pile of dead bodies for many days without eating or drinking, and when we found him, he was already dying. ”

"And now, where is he?" Jia Yi asked.

"After treatment, I saved my life and rested in an inn for the time being," Yan Tianyi replied.

While they were talking, the group came to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion. The scene in front of them made Jia Yi and Li Feng pause, and their brows tightened.

On a Taishi chair in the center, a middle-aged man sat upright, contrary to his upright posture, his expression was frightened, his eyes were wide open, and he stared at the direction of the gate with an unwilling expression.

Chu Dangxiong!

Judging from where Jia Yi and the others were standing, they felt that Chu Dangxiong was looking at them, which couldn't help but make Jia Yi feel a little cold.

Chu Dangxiong has been dead for so long, his body has already begun to decay, and he looks a little disgusting, but the people present are not ordinary people.

"It's a pity, an innate master is just gone," Li Feng shook his head. He couldn't help but think of his master, a good Qingdao person, who was no different from Chu Dangxiong at this moment, and couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.

Yan Tianyi patted him on the shoulder, and then walked to Chu Dangxiong's side, observing his corpse.

"To be honest, I've carefully examined the bodies of other people, but there is no useful information, I'm thinking, since Chu Dangxiong is Zhao Xian's main target, then the chance of finding clues on him should be greater"

"What is the result?" Jia Yi also walked up slowly, looking at Chu Dangxiong's corpse.

Yan Tianyi shook his head, "It's a pity that I haven't gained anything yet."

He can become one of the three great gods of the six doors, and naturally he has extraordinary skills and has solved countless cases, but in this matter, Zhao Xian and the others are really too clean, and the clues are too difficult to find.

Jia Yi observed for a while and couldn't help frowning.

On Chu Dangxiong's body, there were a total of three wounds, one to seal his throat, one to pierce his heart, and a cross-shaped wound on his stomach.

"He lost very quickly, very badly, and had no power to fight back," Jia Yi said after a moment of silence.

"That's true" Yan Tian nodded, "Chu Dangxiong's strength is in the late stage of the innate master, and he has been famous for a long time, so it seems that Zhao Xian's strength should be comparable to that of an ordinary innate grandmaster, it is indeed very strong"

Even so, Yan Tianyi was not worried about Zhao Xian's strength, he was confident in himself, and his strength was also not under the ordinary innate grandmaster.

In the martial arts, strength is not determined by internal force cultivation, this is just one of the more important factors, what a person's comprehensive strength is, it is impossible to accurately judge, it can only be reflected through various duels and competitions.

For example, Ji Xiaohan, although he is an acquired eightfold and has no internal strength, he really has a better chance of winning than ordinary masters in the condensation period.

Because he has a lot of hole cards, these hole cards can improve his strength by a few grades.

At this time, Jia Yi endured nausea and peeled off Chu Dangxiong's clothes, revealing the cross wound.

"Senior, senior brother, do you recognize what kind of move this is?"

Yan Tianyi and Li Feng both looked at it carefully, and even Huang Zitian and Lin Dou also looked at it.

However, no matter how they looked at it, they couldn't tell what kind of move it was, but Yan Tianyi could feel that this move was at least a high-level martial art.

Jia Yi was a little regretful: "If you know what kind of move this is, it will definitely help."

Yan Tianyi also agreed, but since he didn't know for the time being, he would put it down first and look for other clues first.

Several people searched carefully, and Huang Zitian and Lin Dou focused on other things.

Yan Tianyi lowered his head and thought about it, he stared at Chu Dangxiong's face, and gradually fell into a trance.

On this face, the expression is very rich.

There is fear, there is incredible, there is amazement, and there is unwillingness.

It's hard to imagine why a person has such an abundant look on his face before he dies.

What was he thinking?

Yan Tianyi gently rubbed his temples, feeling as if he had faintly grasped something extraordinary.

Fear should be the fear of death.

It's incredible, it should be the strength of the enemy that is unexpected.

Amazed, it should be Zhao Xian's strength is very strong, and he is impressed by his strength.

Unwilling...... Why are you not willing?

Why don't you be willing to die? because you want to live?

No, as a city lord, Chu Dangxiong will not be greedy, so there may be another reason.

He still has something important to do, and once this is done, it may have a great impact on him.

So, is Zhao Xian really here for revenge?

What is Chu Dangxiong going to do?

Yan Tianyi felt as if he had grasped an important clue, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was right, and it was very likely.

He is also accustomed to a method, that is, to identify the assumptions that he temporarily believes to be correct as facts, and to consider things from this point of view, which often has unexpected gains.

Yan Tianyi's gaze moved down and placed it on Chu Dangxiong's neck.

The wound in his neck was supposed to be the fatal wound that would have put an end to him once and for all, because the knife was so heavy that it almost cut off his head.

But Zhao Xian still didn't cut off his head in the end.

Yan Tianyi thought of something in an instant, and was shocked.

"I see!"

His sudden voice startled everyone, and Jia Yi asked, "Senior, have you found anything?"

"I'm not sure" Yan Tianyi said to Jia Yi and the others: "Look at his neck"

Everyone looked at it, but they didn't see anything strange.

"Senior, forgive me for being clumsy, I only saw a wound that was almost decapitated"

"It's this wound!" Yan Tianyi explained: "This wound is too heavy, and the weight of the wound makes his neck twist and his head deviate, don't you think it's a little awkward?" Yan Tianyi asked.

Hearing this, Jia Yi looked at it carefully, and suddenly said: "Senior refers to the fact that his body is weak, which is not consistent with the direction of his eyes, and because of the wound, it is a little distorted and deviated?"

"That's it!" Yan Tianyi said in a deep voice: "His last gaze before he died was not to look at the door, according to my judgment, he was looking at what he wanted!"

As he spoke, Yan Tianyi put his hand on Chu Dangxiong's head, and with a slight force, he straightened his head.

Some maggots fell out, but no one cared about them now.

When everything was finished, everyone followed his gaze and found that Chu Dangxiong was indeed not looking at the direction of the gate, but at the right side of the gate.

There, a half-human-high blue and white porcelain vase is placed.

"There, go and see!" Yan Tianyi commanded Huang Zitian and Lin Dou.

However, at this moment, a muffled sound suddenly sounded, waking everyone up.

"Someone!"

They only saw a black shadow flickering past the window on the left side of the gate, and Yan Tianyi immediately shouted: "He Fang Xiaoxiao, sneaky"

While speaking, the whole person also chased out, Huang Zitian and Lin Dou followed without hesitation, Li Feng saw this, and also chased after him, Jia Yi didn't even say a word of persuasion, and the four of them went out one by one.

He glanced at the blue and white porcelain vase, hesitated, and finally decided to go with him.
