Chapter 17: Exploring the Wu Mansion at Night

Wei Wenting turned around and looked at his desk, and there was indeed a rectangular brocade box.

He dealt with a lot of official business today, so the case was full of mountains of official documents, and the brocade box was placed next to the official documents, and Wu Qixiong did come in his image, put down some things, and left after explaining some official things, but he didn't expect Cai Liancheng to identify the brocade box as the stolen goods of the murder case.

He sneered: "If Lord Cai naively thinks that I, Wei someone, will put the murder evidence on my desk in a grand manner, please Lord Cai personally open the seal, I haven't touched the brocade box yet." ”

Cai Liancheng slowly walked to the desk, and there were four words on the brocade box: Furui Qixiang, both the appearance and size are the same as Yao Qianhua's description.

He opened the brocade box, and there were many books in it, but there were no scrolls!

The booklet is a quarterly account book of the expenditure of the transportation in various places, and it is just a routine official document in the official office.

Cai Liancheng was disappointed.

He turned around and saw the mockery in Wei Wenting's eyes, he knew that Wei Wenting had always disliked him as a person, but at this time, Wei Wenting's expression gave him another signal, he thought that Wei Wenting was deliberately deceiving him. He also believed that Wei Wenting must have hidden the contents of the brocade box first.

Cai Liancheng said: "Is Lord Wu still in the Cao Governor's Mansion now?

"Is Lord Cai still going to be entangled in such a nonsensical matter?" Wei Wenting said angrily.

"Please pass on Lord Wu's communication, and you will know that Cai is not a lie. Cai Liancheng said with a resolute and firm expression.

Wei Wenting saw Cai Liancheng's firm expression and doubts in his heart, so for the sake of safety, he called someone to pass on Wu Qixiong.

After a while, the subordinates reported that Wu Qixiong did not work in the office, and he did not see anyone in the governor's palace, and the gate guards did not see him go out.

Wei Wenting said: "Lord Cai, Lord Wu may have already gone back to his own mansion, and when he comes to the Cao Governor's Mansion tomorrow, he will inquire again." ”

Cai Liancheng sighed: "Does Master Wei still suspect that I am fabricating it out of thin air? Today's battle in the Yunju Teahouse was caused by the fight between the two sides after the person who killed Shen Weijing was discovered by my guards after he connected with Wu Qixiong. ”

"Wu Qixiong has been following me for many years, and he has always been cautious, and I don't believe that he would do such an earth-shattering thing. ”

Cai Liancheng had no choice but to say: "Today's matter, I will investigate it thoroughly, and it is also my father's intention, does Master Wei also want to shirk it?"

Wei Wenting's face flashed with disdain, and he disappeared in an instant, and he said solemnly: "Cai Xiang's intentions, Wei does not dare to disobey, if Lord Cai insists on investigating Wu Qixiong, I should provide convenience, and now I will send someone to go to Wu Mansion with Lord Cai?"

Cai Liancheng said: "I have already sent someone to monitor the Wu Mansion, if Lord Wei does not object, we can also go together now." ”

Knowing that his subordinates were also under Cai Liancheng's surveillance, Wei Wenting's face was even more angry, because the feeling of being suspected for no reason was indeed very sour.

Duan Qianqiu had already infiltrated Wu Qixiong's mansion when it was just dark.

The door of the Wu Mansion was closed, and outside the mansion, Duan Qianqiu noticed that someone was watching. It took him some twists and turns to avoid the people who were watching, and he climbed over the wall to enter the Wu Mansion.

Wu Mansion is quite large, typical of the garden garden style, the flower garden in the house water pavilion, the layout is exquisite, the pattern is small and big, the winding path is twists and turns, and there is a feeling that the garden is deep and secluded and does not know where to go.

The house was very quiet, there were no lights, Duan Qianqiu felt very strange in his heart: "Could it be that the whole family has gone out, and there are no servants or subordinates?"

He originally intended to lurk in the mansion first, and only wait for the opportunity to ask Wu Qixiong for questioning, but now in this situation, he was a little uneasy, he decided to go to Wu Qixiong's study and bedroom to investigate first, maybe he would find out something related to black jade blood ginseng.

According to the layout of the room, Duan Qianqiu came to a room that was most likely to be the study, stabbed the window paper and looked inside, there was no one inside, he pushed the door, the door was hidden, the room was very dark, with Duan Qianqiu's night vision, he could see the situation in the room clearly, but there was a curtain in the inner room, and he couldn't see it clearly.

There is no one's breath in the room, and there is a faint fragrance of ink, it should be the study, Duan Qianqiu saw this, and simply lit the oil lamp in the room, at this time he saw that there was a square flower pot on the windowsill, similar to the white porcelain flower pot used to plant bonsai, there were no flowers and trees planted in it, the soil was dark black, and the black soil was concave in the middle, as if the original planting was pulled out of the state.

Duan Qianqiu's mind moved: This is what Wu Qixiong said about the black soil of Northern Xinjiang, which is used to cultivate black jade blood ginseng.

He then took out the blood ginseng in the wooden box in his arms and put it in the soil, only to see that the blood ginseng was immediately like a small animal finding a nest, and the roots burrowed into the soil, and the original wilting state was actually improved.

Duan Qianqiu was ecstatic in his heart, he remembered what Wu Qixiong said about the snow and water of the Tianshan Mountains, so he looked around, but he couldn't find anything in the outer room, he picked up the oil lamp, opened the curtain of the circular carved doorway and entered the inner room, but was shocked to see a woman lying in the inner room, her face was bruised, her skin was swollen, and her breath was completely gone, and she looked like she had been dead for a long time.

Duan Qianqiu was about to step forward to take a closer look, when he suddenly noticed a figure flickering outside the window, and he pressed out the wick of the oil lamp with his hand.

Someone entered the house, Duan Qianqiu's figure flashed out, and someone noticed it, and slapped it out with a palm, without wind and sound, but Duan Qianqiu only felt that a huge force hit his chest directly, he couldn't think about it, and waved his palm to fight hard, "Bah" was like breaking a drum, the wind was cold in the room, and the curtains were flying.

Visitors also saw the corpses in the house.

He tiptoed a little with his right foot, jumped out, his palms were like gnats, and he slammed Duan Qianqiu's ears, and at the same time kicked Duan Qianqiu's dantian with his left foot.

Duan Qianqiu did not retreat but advanced, he bent his knee and opened the person's left foot, his body advanced rapidly, his left hand was gathered to his waist, and his right hand was like a knife, piercing the eyes of the person.

Duan Qianqiu's moves, he has always been fast and ruthless, and the tricks of self-protection are almost useless, in this move, none of his tricks are back to defense, and the moves are faster, more ruthless and leave no room for others.

The person who came was not fast enough for him, so he could only close the momentum, and blocked Duan Qianqiu's finger knife with both hands, under the palm of his fingers, the internal force collided, and the sound of gold and iron was issued, Duan Qianqiu's offensive was unabated, and his left hand had already condensed the gold stone for the palm of the cloud-piercing palm in the opening of the divine skill, and when the person who came to block his finger knife, he struck out like a thunderbolt, and the palm wind broke through the air, like a momentum of piercing the clouds, covering several key points under the ribs of the comer.

The figure of the man swirled around, sliding to the side like a spinning top, and the strength of his palm passed by his side, and smashed into the stone wall, and the roof beams shook, leaving a deep palm print.

The person who came said "Huh", he was very surprised, he probably didn't expect Duan Qianqiu to have such a deep skill. The two fought several tricks in a row, and Duan Qianqiu had a slight upper hand.

At this time, the two of them stood still at the same time, and looked at each other by the faint light of the sky.

The sky was too dark, and Duan Qianqiu still couldn't look at the face of the person who came carefully, but he saw that he had a long body, and his hands and feet were longer than ordinary people.

"Who is this person? He is even higher than anyone I've seen in so many days!" Duan Qianqiu thought to himself.
