Zhan Ming took a step forward and grabbed Shang Bieyun's arm: "Bieyun." For the first time in so many years, he did not call Shang Bieyun's name, but Shang Bieyun's name again.

Shang Bieyun looked at him, his brows were tightly frowned, he gradually tightened his grip on Shang Bieyun's hand, and shook his head slightly to the extent that Shang Bieyun could feel it.

Ji Chengfeng looked at the two of them with his arms folded, the expression on his face was somewhere between serious and searching, and he didn't speak.

Shang Bieyun looked into Zhan Ming's eyes, and gently pulled his hand off: "I only sent a message to Hui Niang, how did you get the news?"

Zhan Ming froze, his face turned gray.Shangbieyun just looked at him like that, quietly waiting for him to speak.Under such eyes, Zhan Ming's shoulders slowly slumped.

"Everyone feels that Cheng Jiao's knife and ax case is... a dead end."

The words came out of Zhan Ming's mouth with difficulty. Although Li Dongyuan was brought by Zhan Ming, he didn't have time to hear what Zhan Ming said on the way. At this time, together with Miaomiao, he raised his head in astonishment, his face was full of words. Burned.Even Ji Chengfeng showed a somewhat surprised expression when he heard the word "dead end".

Among the crowd, only Shang Bieyun showed no expression, instead he patted Zhan Ming's hand gently: "So, I don't have time to investigate slowly."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Ji Chengfeng: "How is it?"

Ji Chengfeng carefully discerned the expression on his face: "It seems that what Shang said is true, you really don't know much about Mr. Lan, otherwise, you wouldn't make such a request to an outsider like me. "

"It's just—" he slowly dragged out his voice, "Master Shang made this request, but he is very courageous, without the help of Zanglou? To put it bluntly, I am afraid that the throne can be exchanged. So I am very curious , I don’t know what the merchants plan to exchange for it?”

"Longevity." Shang Bieyun patted Zhan Ming's hand comfortingly, then turned his head to face Ji Chengfeng, indifferently.

Ji Chengfeng's first reaction was to laugh, but for some reason, he didn't laugh: "Everyone, joke about it."

"I'm more than 260 years old now, and I'm steady when I'm older, and I don't like to joke. Why, aren't you interested in Jizhuo and Wuzanglou?" Shang Bieyun said.

After leaving the gate of Yuan Mansion, Shang Bieyun and the others walked in silence for a while.

Shang Bieyun's hands were itchy unbearably, his head was covered with sweat, he tried to bear it, he walked out of the alley and remembered something, and looked back at Li Dongyuan: "Is this okay? How about finding a cloth to wrap it?"

It was about Qing'er's body, which was being held in Li Dongyuan's arms.

Li Dongyuan looked down at Qing'er's face in his arms, pale and tender, as if asleep.Although it's really not good to hold a dead body in the street, but Li Dongyuan didn't want to bore him up, so he shook his head: "No need, there is no blood on his body, and he doesn't punch his eyes, so he seems to be asleep. conspicuous."

Shangbieyun was silent for a moment, then nodded, and said nothing more.

Several people walked out again, this time it was Miaomiao who couldn't bear it, and said, "Ji Chengfeng is very smart, he will find out sooner or later."

Hui Niang was bored for a long time, and when she saw Miaomiao open her mouth, she hurriedly answered: "Using longevity as a cover is too impatient and too eye-catching. After all these years, haven't you understood what the human race is? You will Set fire to the gun and burn yourself to death!"

Both Zhan Ming and Li Dongyuan were silent.

Shang Bieyun coughed twice, did not speak, and did not stop walking.His own or other people's blood was all over his body, he felt as if a knife was gouging himself out, and he just wanted to go home quickly and soak in the pool of mirrors.

"Shang Bieyun!" Hui Niang stopped, standing on the spot, panting, looking at him with red eyes.

Shang Bieyun had no choice but to stop, looked up at the sky, let out a deep breath, turned his head to Hui Niang and said helplessly, "Then why don't you think about it, what else can we exchange with him?"

"Your qin, my painting, I won't be lazy, I can draw four or five pictures a day, you don't be lazy, we..." Tears scrambled out, Hui Niang didn't have time to wipe it, she wiped it with her sleeve carelessly, Without making a sound, Miaomiao took out a handkerchief from her bosom, stepped forward and gently wiped the tears on Hui Niang's face.

Mimi couldn't speak anymore.After being ashore for so many years, they wandered carefully in the world of the human race, relying on the protection and guidance of Shangbieyun, and gradually opened up a place to stay. The preferences of the buyer, the money in exchange.

And it's not that she doesn't know what use such a thing can have for Shangwuzanglou.

The corners of Zhan Ming and Li Dongyuan's eyes were red, and they clenched their fists tightly in their sleeves.

Scattered passers-by on the street heard Hui Niang's mournful cries, and saw three grown men surrounding two graceful little girls, one of whom was crying so sadly like a child, they were all taken aback. Looking over with curiosity and a bit of fear.

But no one came forward.

Hui Niang cried and twitched, vaguely aware of those gazes.She came out in a hurry today, without a hat or face.There was still a long way to go home from here, and it was impossible for them to block her all the way.While crying, she took out a small dagger from her waist.The scabbard of the dagger is beautifully inlaid with precious stones, and the handle is tied with a net, and it is adorned with a pendant of the Four Seasons Flower God. It is very delicate, and it looks like a girl's thing.

Hui Niang wiped away the tears on her face indiscriminately, pulled out the dagger, and slashed at her face.Miaomiao held the handkerchief with both hands and put it on Hui Niang's chin, waiting to catch the blood that flowed down.

One hand held Hui Niang's wrist.

Shang Bieyun's fingers haven't grown well yet, at this time he grabbed Hui Niang with all his strength, and there was a heart-rending pain: "Don't do it."

Hui Niang looked at him through her tearful eyes, with a slightly perplexed expression.

"Don't touch it." Shang Bieyun gently pulled the dagger out of her hand, closed the sheath, and put it in Miaomiao's hand: "From now on, don't touch it."

After finishing speaking, he put down Hui Niang's hand, turned around and left.

Hui Niang was still in a daze, Miaomiao put the dagger in her sleeve, knelt down, kowtowed firmly in the direction of Shangbieyun, stood up, and gently hugged Hui Niang.

Zhan Ming and Li Dongyuan looked at each other, there was something unclear in their eyes, Zhan Ming patted Hui Niang's head, and the two followed Shang Bieyun's footsteps.

After the three tall men walked away, passers-by all went to see the two little girls.A well-dressed young man saw the three go away, so he wanted to go up to comfort the two frightened little girls.

He walked up, saw Hui Niangyu's face beating Lihua clearly, he was stunned, he couldn't say a word of the opening speech he had thought up, his face turned red like a fire, and a layer of sweat floated up on his body, thinking He opened his mouth to speak, but he felt ashamed, he faltered and couldn't say anything, like a ghost, he stretched out a finger, wanting to touch Hui Niang's face in a daze.

But before his fingers touched anything, he felt light on the top of his head, and with a sound of "珰", the sapphire crown on his head fell to the ground and shattered, waking him up.He fumbled to touch the top of his head, and found a piece of pointed object, pinched it between his fingers and took it off to see, it was a piece of broken jade, embedded in the hair bun.

"Next time I will aim lower." Shang Bieyun's voice came from a distance.

Hui Niang also came to her senses all of a sudden, she raised her skirt and chased after Shang Bieyun without even giving anyone a spare look.

Miaomiao glanced at the young master, pushed back the dagger that slipped out of her sleeve, and ran away after Hui Niang.

The young master held his hair in a bun, as if stupefied with fright, and stared blankly at the backs of the five strange people in front of him, obviously so disharmonious, but with the light behind them, it seemed that they wanted to go to another world together.

Ji Chengfeng was holding his sword and sitting on the handrail of the garden corridor of Yuan Mansion, with his back leaning against the pillar.The pattern carved on the railing was intercepted by the setting sun on his face, deep and shallow, and he closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.

The police officers came in and out of the gate, carrying the corpses to the hearse parked in front of Yuan's mansion.The gate of Yuan Mansion was also full of onlookers. They saw the frame carrying the corpse going in and out many times. It was not finished carrying the corpse from sunset until it was almost dark. Unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, he crowded at the door and shouted loudly. discussing.The police learned their lesson and sent four people at the door to firmly guard the door with knives.

The little policeman commanded at the door, and when things were almost done, he took a break, took a look at Ji Chengfeng from a distance, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and walked forward.

"Ji Chuu?" He asked cautiously, angrily.

"Huh?" Ji Chengfeng snorted, but didn't open his eyes.

"Ji Chuu, things are almost over, why don't you go around and have a look?"

"No need, I don't worry about you doing things." Ji Chengfeng moved his buttocks, "Come up and sit down?"

"No. After each room is sealed, you can go back to the yamen." The little catcher hesitated and hesitated, and then said: "It's just the season catcher, who are those people?"

"People?" Ji Chengfeng opened his eyes and glanced at him: "Oh, those people are all decent people. I cross-examined them a few times, and there is no problem. Let them go."

The little catcher quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes: "Oh... But, there is still a child's body..."

Ji Chengfeng jumped off the armrest, patted the ashes on his body, and stretched his waist: "Oh, right. I almost forgot about it. You will remember it and write it down in the case file later."

"Ah? What?" The little catcher was stunned.

"After those people left, and you haven't come back, I checked the body alone in that room. At this time, a person jumped out, took advantage of my unpreparedness, snatched the child's body and ran away. I never beat him. , didn’t catch up, and told him to just run away.” Ji Chengfeng pressed the policeman’s shoulder: “Write it down?”

"..." The little policeman didn't know how to react at all, he was so stupid to hear that, he couldn't even nod.

"Oh, by the way." Ji Chengfeng took two steps away, then turned around and confessed, "This person is probably also the murderer in this case. His methods are cruel, heinous, and daring. Number."

"Mr. Lan. I don't know which Lan it is, the girl is chirping, don't care which Lan it is, anyone who touches the edge can get the case file for me. I don't believe he never left any clues. From today, our Qingzhou government office, We're going to fight him." Ji Chengfeng said with a smile.
