Ren Tianqi glanced a little red and said, "What's going on today?"

The eldest brother Lu Qian continued: "July 18." ”

Ren Tianqi nodded, accompanied everyone to stay in the temple for a while, visited the temple before and after, said goodbye to everyone in the temple, and the group took Lu Shixing and galloped towards the county seat.

369 is the village to catch the market, the villagers will come out early in the morning to buy and sell on the street, make a deal, there are red and white things people will inevitably weigh some meat, buy some fish, sell some wine. The villagers have long been accustomed to the flying and domineering of the Fireworks League, and they are quite accustomed to seeing groups of strongmen with knives and guns coming and going on the street, but I don't know why there are so many people on the street today. To catch the market on the street, there are one or two people carrying knives to patrol back and forth, and there are not enough only five or six people for a long time, and there are about 30 people before and after today, and the people who come are shouting loudly at the stalls from door to door, kicking the jar and catching a chicken, eating bowls of noodles and not giving money, making everyone panic, dodging, I don't know if these uncles are enchanted or taking the wrong medicine, I feel that something is wrong.

This is not only the case with this street, but also the slightly popular areas in the entire Gaoyou territory are all in ruin and chaotic. The villagers hurriedly sent people to secretly go to the county order to state the truth. The county commander also hurriedly sent a lot of fast arrest officials, and when the officials saw that the other party was overwhelmed, they all ran back.

This said that Ren Tianqi and his entourage left Gaoyou County and rushed to Chengde Villa, Longgou Town, to check the Chengde bloody case that caused a sensation in the rivers and lakes that year. Along the way, I inquired about how to get to Chengde Villa, but many passers-by avoided talking about it, and they all heard the news and panicked. Everyone was quite surprised, the nine-tailed fox Gong Ming was annoyed when he saw it, and urged him to run forward for two or three miles, and saw that there was a middle-aged man in front of him who was carrying a hoe and walking slowly, and he hurriedly unbuttoned his clothes, opened his clothes, opened his chest and exposed his back, and the tattoo of the nine-tailed fox on his back was fully revealed.

Xiao San urged the horse forward, came to the man's side, hugged his head with a few horse whips, circled the horse to block the man's way, sat on the horse and stared at the man.

The man heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, instinctively gave way to the side of the road, but he didn't realize that it was still a disaster from the sky, and suddenly he was whipped a few whips, left the hoe in his hand and was about to attack and step forward to theorize, and looked up to see a fierce man in front of him, hanging a long sword, holding a leather whip in his hand, disheveled, revealing a dark green wolf head on his chest, or a dog's head-like pattern, his face was hideous, his heart was kicking, and the rising anger had already been extinguished, his legs trembled, and he knelt on the road with a plop, raised a cloud of dust, kowtowed again and again, and stammered in his mouth:" Ying, the heroic grandfather is around his life. The little one didn't know when he took the offense, offended the hero, and begged the hero for forgiveness, forgiveness and forgiveness. ”

Immediately, Xiao San snorted coldly and said: "The master asks you something, just say it directly, know is know, don't know is not know, if there is a little difference, see if I don't smoke you to death!"

Gong Ming said: "Do you know about Chengde Villa? How to get there?

The man on the ground was so frightened when he heard the four words of Chengde Villa that he fell to the ground, his face was sweating like rain, the iron was blue and colorless, and he saw the leather whip in Gong Ming's hand, and he was forced to be helpless, and said: "Uncle Qiu's family died two years ago. Now the villa is a haunted empty mansion that no one dares to visit. ”

Gong Ming said: "The master knows it, you don't need to talk nonsense, just say how to get it!"

The man stretched out his head and licked his lips, and said: "The hero needs to turn back less than three miles, see a hundred-year-old white fruit tree on the side of the road, turn right and go out four or five miles, see a fork in the road, but take the road on the side of the pavilion on the right, and then go seven or eight miles to see a courtyard with red walls and green tiles." ”

Gong Ming shouted on the horse: "Say it again to the master, the master's ears are not very good!"

The man was so frightened that he repeated it. Seeing that what he said was not bad at all, Gong Ming snorted, took out ten taels of silver from his arms, threw it over, arched his hand on the horse, and kicked the horse away.

The man was stunned, inexplicable, looking at the silver on the ground, and then at the back of Xiao San, who had already gone in the dust, he didn't know where he was, as if he was in a dream.

Everyone finally found Chengde Villa according to the words, and saw a dilapidated mansion in front of them, the weeds in front of the door were overgrown, the trees were uneven, the bee saucers danced in the middle, the courtyard door was closed, the thick copper nails on the door had already been rusted, there was not much left, the plaque of Chengde Villa had already fallen, and there was no trace;

It is said that the moon is like the old breeze passing, and the trees are especially alive.

Only to see the fragrance of flowers startle the birds, how to do it with a smile?

Ren Tianqi immediately looked around, did not see a single person, did not see a household, it was really desolate, sighed, turned over and got off the horse. Gong Ming dismounted, picked up the stairs with his sword, and stepped forward, and he was about to raise his hand to push the door.

The great monk Lu Qian said: "Little San, be cautious, I heard that it is haunted inside!"

Gong Ming turned around and smiled, turned around and was about to push the door, but the door opened by itself, and he saw a white shadow inside flashing and disappearing in the weeds.

Gong Ming's heart trembled, he pulled out the Qingqi sword according to the spring, shook his body and flashed into the courtyard; and then looked up, except for the wild grass more than one person tall and the flock of frightened birds, there were wooden planks and bricks scattered on the ground, and there was no one in the courtyard.

Ren Tianqi and the others didn't know what was going on, so they all rushed forward and poured into the village with one foot open the door. But when I saw a white shadow in the grass, it was a white rabbit that was frightened and ran out. A little red paper fan waved, and a silver light shot out, and I saw the white rabbit that flashed out of the grass with a snort, fell to the ground and rolled a few times, convulsed a few times and died.

Ma Benqingfei stepped forward to pick up the white rabbit and said with a smile: "The second master is so skilled, this hare is so fat, there is something delicious at night!"

Everyone was very happy when they heard this.

Tian Mu Zuo Tianbao opened the road in front, and everyone carefully entered Dezhuang along the bluestone road in the courtyard.

Walking through the wings on both sides, crossing the corridors extending in all directions, walking through the front yard, the middle yard, the back yard, and the back flower yard, I saw that the things in the courtyard had already been stolen and robbed, and only an empty courtyard remained. There is only one pavilion left in the courtyard that used to be quite elaborate and has not yet been visited. Everyone came to the front of the building, but they saw that the notice on the wall of the official's house was still incomplete, but they couldn't see the font clearly. I looked at it again, but I could see the traces of the official seal faintly visible on the doors and windows. Everyone knew in their hearts that this must be the place where the Qiu family lived in Chengde Villa, and it was also the main site of the bloody case that year. Maybe it was bloody, not auspicious enough, the doors and windows of the pavilion here are complete, and there is no major damage.

Tian Muzuo looked back at Ren Tianqi. Ren Tianqi nodded. Tian Muzuo swung his knife to cut off the chain on the door, and gently pushed the door open with the tip of the knife.

Ren Tianqi turned around and asked Xiao San to accompany Xia He Qiuyue outside without going in, and went upstairs first from the head of his head, and Tianbao followed with a stick. The crowd marched slowly.

Entering the building, you can still see the rich man in the original village, although it is said that the chairs and tables at home are overturned, all over the place, drenched, and there are not necessarily any more valuable belongings, but the red yarn hangs low, the palace lights stand together, the strange stones are playing, and the dazzling array is full of dazzling, and the evidence can still be conclusive to show the solid wealth of the Qiu family in those years.

Ren Tianqi waved his hand to tell everyone to stop, picked up his sword and called Wen Tingyu, and the two watched around the building. The crowd stood downstairs waiting. Traces of sword fights could be seen everywhere in the building, and dark red and black blood stains were often seen on the walls and tables. Look, there was a scuffle here.

The two of them came upstairs again, but they saw that the objects in the upstairs bedroom were neatly placed, but there was a dry blood stain and a knife mark on the sandalwood carved bed, all of which were three points into the wood, presumably someone had hacked them to death in their sleep. The study was very messy. In the study, the two of them stood for a long time, staring at the wall on one side of the bookshelf in the study, the scratches on the bookshelf, and the palm prints on the pits, which greatly increased their interest. (Criminal investigation design, someone sneak attack)

A little red pointed to the sword marks and said: "Look at this situation, there should be as many as two factions of murderers who have done it here, look at this thick and deep, it must be the group of people in the door of life and death, the sword is thick and powerful, but although there is only one slender and shallow sword mark next to it, it is far more powerful and terrifying than so many swordsmen of life and death." The virtuous brother didn't see that the corner of the book case was missing, there was a crack on the wall and a pool of black, and there was a long crack on the floor tiles on the ground, and then look at the top of the head, the fence was broken and the wood fell, all of which were caused by this person's sword qi, which showed the fierceness and domineering of this person's sword qi; and then looked at the puddle of blood on the opposite wall, it must have been the old owner Qiu who died on this thunderous sword move. ”

Ren Tianqi nodded.

The two of them went to look at the bookcase again, and they saw that there was a black right palm print on the bookcase, because of the age, the blood stains had long since dried up, turned into a powder bulge, because it was often eroded by the wind, leaving only the middle piece, and there was an extra thing seal in the seal, and if you looked closely, it seemed to be a key-shaped ironware. The two of them were curious, looked at each other, and thought that this place had been investigated by the government several times, and the relevant physical evidence had been taken away and ceased to exist. Unexpectedly, this thing sank deep into the wood. It can be seen that the owner of Qiu Zhuang deliberately hid this object in such a visible place before his death, and the most dangerous place is often the most appropriate place, which can also be seen the depth of Qiu Zhuang's internal strength. Ren Tianqi slapped the table and shook out the object, and when he saw it in his hand, he was really a short copper key, and he was overjoyed.

The things that Qiu Zhuang wants to hide must be the most important thing in the life of Qiu Zhuang, and the things that Qiu Zhuang wants to hide must be handed over to his trustworthy person, and he also believes that the trustworthy person will definitely come when he hears the news, and will definitely understand what he is hiding, and will definitely come to take it away and keep it on his behalf. Ren Tianqi, as a person who used to be one of the seven doors, has this common sense, and he is well-informed, and he understands the truth of this. The two looked at the copper key in their hands, their hearts were full of excitement, the two knew the relationship between Longqiu Village and Chengde Villa, with this key, the two of them would know many unknown secrets, especially Longqiu Villa is rich and rival the country, so how can this Chengde Villa be inferior. Not only has a little red always been worried, but even the young director Tianqi is quite concerned. If it weren't for the fact that he was looking for treasures, it is estimated that he Ren Tianqi would not have left the Yangzhou General's Mansion! But the question is, where would the secret hide be.

The two looked at each other excitedly with suppressed excitement in their hearts, and neither of them said a word. The two of them carefully looked at the long-abandoned study. There were indeed no conspicuous and valuable things in the study, just two chairs that had been stained with blood fell to the ground horizontally, a delicate teapot and two teacups had already been shattered when they fell to the ground, and the fragments were scattered all over the ground; several bookcases were also quite untidy and crooked; there was nothing on the desk with a missing corner, and it was covered with dust; there were many cracks on the blank wall, which had been left unattended for a long time, and there was a messy paper in the corner of the wall, and there were two brushes stuck in the wall, but only a short pen was seen。 There was nothing suspicious in the study.

A little red hand bullet everywhere, all solid walls, not necessarily hollow. Ren Tianqi stepped forward and picked up the pages with two fingers to look at them, and then knocked on the two pen sticks on the wall, stunned for thought.

A little red said: "If you want to come something, it must be hidden in a corner of this study, Lord Ying has searched for three days and has not found it, but it is not so simple!"

Ren Tianqi nodded, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out some powder in the palm of his hand, blew them to the four walls one by one, and said with a smile: "Since the key is left here, even if the thing is not here, there should be an entrance to the hiding place! Otherwise, the secret passage will be on the ground or the roof, and the ground may be very small!"

A little red nodded, and kept hitting the ground with the scabbard, all of which were aggressive and solid, and there was indeed nothing to gain.

The two stared nervously at the wall.

After a pillar of incense, the two still did not harvest, and it was obvious that the secret passage was on the roof. The two of them looked up at the roof and saw nothing unusual. Ren Tianqi's eyes were staring at a not-so-conspicuous place in the study, there was a big window in the study, and there was a bamboo curtain in front of the window, and the bamboo curtain was tall, which was nothing; the difference was that this bamboo curtain had three lines, while other people's bamboo curtains had only two at most.

Ren Tianqi smiled slightly, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull the middle one. As soon as his hand touched it, he felt that there was a play, it was not an ordinary thread, but a thing that seemed to be iron and not iron, although it was soft, it was cold. As soon as Ren Tianqi pulled the line, he felt that he had pulled a certain mechanism. Ren Tianqi hurriedly dodged to the side, standing on the side with a little red, nervously watching the changes in the study.

The two of them were startled, and they saw that at the junction between the wall above the bookcase and the roof, a wooden board popped up on the roof, revealing a four- or five-foot square hole, and the bookcase below automatically sank into the ground, and the ground closed again, and a wooden ladder stretched out from the hole above.

The two of them were overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward, and a little red took out a flint from his bosom to light a lamp, and climbed the ladder. Ren Tianqi followed closely behind.

The two of them tossed and turned a few corners in the passage less than four feet long, and came to a tall and wide place. And behold, there was a large iron gate in front of him, and there was a brass lock on the door. A little red looked up at Ren Tianqi.

Ren Tianqi raised his sword and fell, cut off the lock, and pushed the door with a little red sword. The key that the two of them found could never have opened a door or something, and what was left behind by the dying must have been something as precious as a thousand gold in his heart, showing weakness and life, and how could it be something outside his body such as money! Ren Tianqi started to cut off the big copper lock without thinking about it.

The door opened, and a golden light shot in. 20130226
