The Taoist said that he wanted to regret the marriage!

Destroying me can make Li Shizi suffer, which is more uncomfortable than directly letting him die!

After saying this, Li Tianmian appeared to be upright and confident, but his heart was overwhelmed and collapsed, and he was disgusted by himself.

The two fell into silence for a while, Lin Xunzhou looked at Li Zhoumian blankly, Li Zhoumian looked back at Lin Xunzhou pretending to be calm, the atmosphere was a bit subtle.

After a long while, Lin Xunzhou finally sighed softly, and said in a sigh: "It turns out that he is so affectionate, it can be said that he is deeply in love, but there is no fate, I can't bear it. You...you really don't like him at all." ?”

Li Zhoumian felt that his eyes were darkened, he gritted his teeth and said, "Not at all—"

Lin Xunzhou sighed regretfully: "Okay."

What do you regret?Li Zhoumian couldn't express his suffering, so he said weakly: "Don't you want to go to the government, keep going."

"Oh." Lin Xunzhou regained his indifference, turned his head and continued to walk forward.Li Zhoumian couldn't tell what was going on in his heart, he was restless all the way.

Finally arrived at the government office, visited the yamen several times within a few days, the two of them are already familiar with the road.Li Zhoumian asked someone to bring a pen and paper, spread the paper and rub the ink, and with a few strokes, he outlined a human figure on the paper, with both form and rhyme, exactly the appearance of the assassin they saw in the stone of transformation.

Lin Xunzhou watched Li Zhoumian's painting with his sword in his arms, his eyes widened curiously, thinking that this brushwork is smooth and skillful, Li Zhoumian is really versatile.

Li Zhoumian put down his pen and handed the portrait to the official, asking him to check the identity of the person in the painting.The officialdom in Lingcheng had just been rectified by Prince Yan's son, so the official didn't dare to be negligent at this moment, so he quickly agreed.

After carefully inquiring about Li Zhoumian's situation in the restaurant, the officials were a little puzzled: "I don't know one thing about this assassin. The two are young and promising, both are monks in the Jindan period, and they are highly skilled in martial arts. It’s hard to kill the two of you. The assassin planned to kill you, why did he choose such a difficult way to succeed?”

Li Zhoumian smiled: "I'm guessing. The assassin was injured by me before, and he was definitely seriously injured. In fact, I was a little surprised that he was still alive and appeared in front of me again. He was seriously injured. Unhealed, unable to make a move, and unwilling to let me go, it is not surprising to do such a thing."

The official nodded and said, "I see."

The official quickly explained the investigation of the assassin, served tea to the two, and said, "We are investigating the matter of Liu's mansion. There are four human bones excavated. Wu Zuo said that they look like they died a few years ago." , at least it’s not a new addition recently. I’ve had people find all the files related to the missing cases over the years, and I’m checking them one by one.”

Li Zhoumian nodded and was about to speak when he heard Lin Xunzhou say: "There are dark red bloodstains in the soil. The human bones are not newly added, and the bloodstains may have other hidden meanings. This clue cannot be ignored. Speaking of which, this What is the background of Liu Mansion?"

Hearing Lin Xunzhou's question, the official sighed deeply: "This Liu Mansion was originally a well-known and wealthy family in Lingcheng, but it was an old story more than ten years ago, and it is not mentioned much now. This Liu Mansion Clan started out selling cloth, and when he was the richest, there was even a saying of 'Half City Willows', which means that the Liu family's wealth can be equivalent to half a city."

"Originally, the shops run by the Liu family were thriving, but there was an unexpected accident more than ten years ago. At that time, they were fighting fiercely with the demons outside the sky, and there were countless casualties on the front line. The young head of the Liu family had learned some immortal techniques. He was a Golden Core Stage The monk, hearing that the cultivation world is in danger, volunteered to go to the front line to defend against foreign enemies."

Hearing this, Li Zhoumian and Lin Xunzhou fell silent.After a while, Li Zhoumian sighed, "This young patriarch is also a hero."

The official smiled wryly, and continued: "It's a pity that he never came back after he left. After the news of his death in battle came home, the elderly Patriarch of the Liu family was greatly mourned, and he couldn't afford to fall ill. just go."

"Although this Liu family is rich, its population is small. There is only one second young master left in the direct line, and the young master's child is only four or five years old. The second young master was not raised as an heir since he was a child. Talent, could not support the Liu family's family business at all, and was quickly set up by someone secretly, taking away the Liu family's business. In just one year, the Liu family collapsed, and the widow left by the young patriarch hanged herself. The tribe scattered, and the house was deserted."

"Later, it was Li Shizi who set the world with an arrow on Tianmu Mountain and seriously injured the Demon King. The Demon Race temporarily retreated, and the cultivation world regained stability for a while. It is a pity that the Liu family has been ruined and can no longer go back to the past."

Hearing this story made people feel heavy. Lin Xunzhou didn't take a sip of tea, but put the teacup back on the table. After a moment of silence, he asked, "What are the names of the young master and the second young master? What happened to the second young master?"

The official opened a file, looked at it, put it back on the table, and pointed it out to the two of them: "The young master's name is Liu Han, and the second young master's name is Liu Yan. Later... his whereabouts are unknown, and he seems to have left the mausoleum."

Li Zhoumian narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Lin Xunzhou: "Do you doubt this Second Young Master?"

Lin Xunzhou said: "The second young master is most likely to set up a tablet of Liu's family and pay respects."

Li Zhoumian picked up the file and flipped through it, and said, "There is another person. More than ten years have passed, and the four or five-year-old child left by the young Patriarch, if he is still alive, should have grown up. Come back at this time." Worship is also possible. It's a pity that the child's name is not recorded on it, so I don't know how to find it."

He put down the dossier and sighed: "The clues are messy and there is no clue. Maybe we can find more clues only by catching the person who set up the memorial tablet in the Liu mansion. Is the Liu mansion surrounded?"

"Surrounded, all the people hiding in the Liu Mansion are our people," the official replied, "As long as someone returns to the Liu Mansion, they will be discovered immediately."

Li Tianmian nodded: "Okay, while you squat down, check the bloodstains and the clues of the descendants of the Liu Mansion. Once you find something, you can send it to me."

He took out a stack of talisman paper and handed it over: "This is a sound transmission talisman, and ordinary people can use it without aura. This thing is not easy to make, and the effect is not very good. It is easy to fail, so let's make do with it."

Lin Xunzhou looked at the sound transmission talisman, and wondered if he should promote the communication technology used on the waist badges of the disciples of the Jingong, so as to realize the comprehensive intercommunication in the cultivation world?

...................

When Li Zhoumian and Lin Xunzhou came out of the government office, they were not in a very relaxed mood.

Li Zhoumian said in a low voice: "Now we have to wait for someone to be caught or have new clues before we can continue the investigation. We will have nothing to do with it for a while."

Lin Xunzhou said bluntly: "Actually, it's none of our business."

If it wasn't for Li Tianmian's whim to say that being idle is idle and going to help the government investigate the case, this matter has little to do with them in the first place, and there will be no follow-up developments.

"Then let them continue to investigate," Li Zhoumian coughed lightly, flattering him, "We have encountered one thing after another these days, so we won't mix in more things. Why don't we go drink tea together? It was the teahouse we met for the first time."

Li Zhoumian laughed, his brows and eyes were gentle, and his pupils were shining.

Seeing that he was interested, Lin Xunzhou nodded.

The teahouse was as lively as ever, as soon as the two of them entered the door, they heard the storyteller slap the gavel and said loudly: "Last time we talked about wow, that infatuated son is seeking medical advice everywhere to save his sweetheart Li Sanqi. , and finally saved the life of his sweetheart. Li Sanqi woke up from the coma, and seeing the emaciated face of the prince, she was moved to tears, held the hand of the prince, and shed two lines of tears, very pitiful..."

Li Zhoumian: "..."

Lin Xunzhou: "..."

Li Zhoumian suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to come to the teahouse, so he turned his head and wanted to leave.

Lin Xunzhou grabbed him, looked at this "pretty and pitiful" little friend lovingly, and comforted him: "I know you don't like Li Shizi, and I feel uncomfortable hearing such words, I understand."

Li Zhoumian was touched and said: "You are really my confidant, so we might as well change places."

Lin Xunzhou shook his head and continued: "It's just rumors. If you don't clarify them, they will only intensify. Avoiding them will not solve the problem."

Li Zhoumian was stunned: "So?"

Lin Xunzhou patted him on the shoulder and said righteously: "I understand that you are embarrassed, it's okay, we are friends, let me clarify for you."

Li Zhoumian: "...?"

Li Zhoumian watched Lin Xunzhou turn around and strode up to the storyteller without reacting.

Lin Xunzhou stopped in front of the storyteller, and the storyteller looked at him strangely: "Young Master, what's the matter?"

Lin Xunzhou looked serious: "Mr., what you just said is wrong."

The storyteller was taken aback: "What?"

Lin Xunzhou said: "Li Sanqi is not with Prince Yan's son, he is only in unrequited love. Li Sanqi has a chic and unrestrained personality, and has always worshiped... the suzerain of Mingzong never liked his son, how could he hold his hand?" , shed two lines of tears'? You are wrong."

After listening to the storyteller, he snorted: "I'm not right, so are you right?"

Lin Xunzhou nodded: "I'm right, because I know one of the parties involved."

The storyteller shook his head: "Who knows if you know him or not..."

Lin Xunzhou took out a piece of silver from his pocket and put it on the table.

The storyteller's tone changed: "So the truth is like this! I understand. Don't worry, my lord. I know many storytellers who travel around. I will definitely tell these friends the truth. When I tell stories in the future, the rumors will definitely be wiped out. Return your friend's innocence."

Lin Xunzhou said "yes": "You remember, although Li Shizi is infatuated, Li Sanqi doesn't like him at all."

The storyteller didn't talk nonsense, he just slapped the gavel and continued with the words just now, changing the plot without sloppiness: "... Li Sanqi woke up from a coma, saw the haggard face of the prince, and sighed: 'I There is no love for the son, why bother to be obsessed with it?" Li Shizi cried bitterly and said: "Whether you love me or not, I only want you to live well"..."

Lin Xunzhou nodded in satisfaction, turned around, and saw Li Zhoumian behind him with wet eyes and trembling lips.

Are you going to cry so moved... Lin Xunzhou thought with relief, walked up to Li Zhoumian, and thoughtfully said, "You don't need to thank me, we are all friends."

"..." Li Zhoumian had the urge to choke up, "...Actually, it doesn't have to be like this..."
