The touch of the whole body is gentle and familiar.The huge body of water wrapped Shangbieyun in all directions, holding him gently in his arms like a baby.The Shangbie cloud quietly sank to the thick dark color at the bottom of the pool in the water waves, and the sunlight beyond the water surface was getting farther and farther away, but he could still feel the warmth from his back.As if returning home for a long time, Shang Bieyun closed his eyes and almost let out a comfortable sigh.

The next moment, the water flow replaced the breath, and squeezed into his mouth and nose happily.On Shang Bieyun's face, he didn't know where he was, and there was more confusion than pain.It was only at this time that he remembered that he needed to hold his breath, but it was too late, he struggled to cough out more air bubbles, and as soon as those air bubbles left his body, they couldn't wait to rise to the surface of the water, which was more free than him.

Shangbieyun unconsciously stretched out his hand towards those bubbles in vain.His eyes met at his fingertips, and he flickered for a while, as if he suddenly woke up, he remembered his purpose.

He flexibly turned around, trying to endure the suffocation feeling like his chest would explode. The skin under the densely packed scars on his ribs hurt like it was about to split open. He held his breath and closed his eyes in the water.

What will become of a few drops of blood melted into a bottomless pool?Shangbieyun opened his eyes again, in front of his eyes was a hair-thin red thread, gently swaying with the water waves, long and boundless, rooted in the bottomless bottom of the pool.

Shangbieyun paddled the water a little jerky, struggling to swim towards the end of the red line.

There were faint sounds of breaking water from the water above, and Shang Bieyun's ears were buzzing, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and he didn't want to care about it.The light from the surface of the water became farther and farther away, and his body was gradually surrounded by the night-like thick water, but his eyes were still bright, the red line was like a cunning water snake, slippery, luring Shang Bieyun to go Dive deeper, deeper places.

Shangbieyun coughed out a large cloud of bubbles again, and the smell of rust filled his throat.His hands and feet had already started to weaken, and he was struggling to split the water waves in front of him, but his posture seemed to be retreating.He took off his outer robe in the water, his body became a little lighter, and he managed to swim two inches forward, and then gave up again.

He was like a child who couldn't learn to walk, struggling in vain with his hands and feet, his fingers trying in vain to grasp the emptiness of the red thread.

Soon, soon, soon.He stretched out his hand as hard as he could, gritted his teeth and said to himself, but there were already floating black spots in front of his eyes.

He remembered that he was at the edge of the mirror pool, pushed Cheng Jiao into the water, and asked him if he had never been in the water for so many years; remembering that he had held Cheng Jiao in his arms, he sighed and said that he had picked up a person who was afraid of water. Xiaoyu: I think of when I was young, I was swimming in the abyss of thousands of feet, and compared with my companions, who was the fastest swimmer.

It was only then that he remembered that since then, for so many years, he has always been afraid of water.

He exhaled the last breath in his chest, struggled forward, and fell into the boundless purgatory.

The floating soul suddenly slammed into his body heavily, Shang Bieyun screamed and gasped, opened his eyes suddenly, and then began to cough earth-shatteringly.

Li Dongyuan next to him was also drenched. Seeing Shang Bieyun wake up, he felt relieved, and fell on his side beside him, gasping for breath exhausted.The rest of the people gathered around Shang Bieyun, and their bodies were all wet.

Zhan Ming knelt beside Shang Bieyun, holding Shang Bieyun's wrist firmly with both hands, pinching his meridian acupoint with great strength, seeing that Shang Bieyun seemed to be coughing up all his internal organs The look on his face, the look on his face, can't be said to be regretful or unbearable, but he just used all his strength to stabilize his voice: "Are you confused?"

Shang Bieyun calmed down, but smiled first: "I'm in a hurry."

Hui Niang knelt down at the side, seeing him smile, her eye circles quickly turned red again, and said bitterly: "Why are you so anxious, at least send us who have not been sealed off. Suffocate in the water! Do you know how difficult it is to find someone in the dark water, and how anxious you are!"

Shang Bieyun sat up with his arms propped up, curled his two fingers, and flicked Hui Niang's forehead: "Okay, I'm not dead. Besides, it's useless for you to go down, and you won't see the sharks." Blood." After speaking, he spread out his right hand that had been clenched in a fist, and on the palm lay the remaining two halves of the pendant, still stained with some mud from the bottom of the pool.

Zhan Ming squeezed the two halves of jade, rubbed them on the monk's robe, lifted them up, and faced the sun: "There are words."

"Oh." Shang Bieyun was not surprised, took the jade piece over, held it up and looked at the sun.Sure enough, the sunlight penetrated through the transparent material, allowing people to see clearly, and a few small characters were engraved on the two pieces of material with extremely fine fine brushwork.Although the handwriting is small, it can be written in a sophisticated manner, comparable to a famous artist.

"Catch only one for fear you won't come" is engraved on the back of the goldfish's tail.

On the half of the knife and ax case, there are three words engraved with no beginning and no end: "300 taels"

Zhan Ming and the others looked at each other.

Judging from the current situation, Cong Yin was also taken away by Mr. Lan, and from the time difference, he left Yuan's mansion and went straight to here, and it was provocative, leaving clues.However, judging from the handwriting left behind, he seems to be playing a game with Shang Bieyun, arresting Cong Yin and Cheng Jiao, just wanting to force Shang Bieyun to come to him by himself.There wasn't much blood on the side of the pool, and Zhan Ming's body didn't sense anything, so Cong Yin's life should be safe for a while.

But what is the meaning of the 300 taels without beginning and end?

Everyone looked at Shang Bieyun.

Shang Bieyun rubbed the two pieces of jade between them, was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head: "How many days did we agree with Ji Chengfeng?"

"Three days." Zhan Ming continued: "Consider for three days, no matter whether it is successful or not, we will meet at Wanghu Tower in three days."

"Don't wait, let's go now, he should be in the county government." Shang Bieyun put the jade piece into his sleeve and stood up.

When Ji Chengfeng took Yao Ke, and Shangbieyun and his party met near Guanlan Street, they were a little surprised.

When Yao Ke saw Shang Bieyun, his eyes almost burst into flames. Ji Chengfeng had to slightly raise his hand to stop him, so that he would not rush directly to Shang Bieyun: "Master Shang, this is it?"

Shang Bieyun glanced at Yao Ke: "I'm going to the county government to look for you."

Ji Chengfeng smiled: "Coincidentally, I have a tacit understanding with Mr. Shang once."

"How to say?" Shang Bieyun raised his eyebrows.

"...Yes. I have no problem here. Yao Ke is the young master of Wuzanglou, and he basically agreed half of Wuzanglou on behalf of Wuzanglou. It's just that we haven't gotten through with his brother yet, and we need you to go to Wuzang with us. Let's meet Lou Bai. There are some other things, we want to make three chapters, such as..."

Shang Bieyun rubbed his shoulder and walked over: "Don't talk nonsense if you agree, follow and go back to Yuan Mansion."

Ji Chengfeng's words were still half stuck in his mouth, he was stunned for a while, then shook his head with a helpless smile, dragged Yao Ke, and followed.

Shang Bieyun's feet were like the wind, and he walked fast all the way. Yao Ke wanted to talk to him several times, but he had no chance at all.A few people walked all the way back to Yuan Mansion, and saw that the street was still full of people from a distance.Qingzhou has not had such a major case in the past few years. Although the common people cannot enter the door, they are unwilling to let go of such excitement. They still gather around the gate of the mansion in small groups, talking excitedly to the gate.

Shang Bieyun stopped, waited for Ji Chengfeng to catch up, and gave him a slanting glance.

Ji Chengfeng stood in a stalemate with him for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile, motioning for them to follow.A few people turned to the back alley of Yuan Mansion. The back alley was hidden and there were no pedestrians. However, there were two police officers on duty in front of the door. Ji Chengfeng brought a group of people over, a little confused.

Ji Chengfeng casually showed his badge: "A few councilors from above want to see the original scene of the crime." The two police officers hurriedly bowed and let everyone in.

After entering the door, Ji Chengfeng put away his badge, and complained half-truthfully: "Everyone in Shang used me too easily. Nothing was revealed, why do I feel like I'm being taken advantage of?"

Shang Bieyun didn't answer his faults, but asked: "Have all your people inspected? Are there any cellars, darkrooms, dark prisons and other places in the Yuan Mansion?"

"The inspection was so-so, but they are all young men. Do you have any clues? You can go and inspect it yourself." Ji Chengfeng said lazily.

Shang Bieyun glanced at him, then walked towards the ancestral hall first.

All the corpses in the ancestral hall were evacuated, but the blood stains on the ground were not cleaned up. They dripped on the ground paved with bluestone bricks, and the blood stains seeped into the cracks of the bricks and dried up.Such traces must be difficult to fade away within a few years.Shang Bieyun walked around the bloodstain on the ground a few times, knelt down, pressed and knocked.The touch under his hand is dense, and the echo is dull.

Ji Chengfeng stood beside him, watching with great interest.

Shang Bieyun didn't bother him, went to the desk, the pillars around, and the vases everywhere, and checked them carefully, and there was nothing unusual.

Ji Chengfeng didn't come to help, but instead said leisurely: "I can't tell, Master Shang is also a master at investigating cases. If you are willing to come to the county government to apply for fame, I think it's nothing to do with me."

Shang Bieyun didn't realize it, and patted the ashes on his hands: "We're all in the same group now, so we don't need to be verbal, aren't you tired? Where is the Yuan family's study?"

Ji Chengfeng was taken aback by what he said, but smiled even more happily: "Master Yuan has a study, and Young Master Yuan also has a study room. Which one should I go to?"

"Let's go to Young Master Yuan's first. Lead the way." Shang Bieyun was not polite, and then sent Ji Chengfeng.

Ji Chengfeng didn't know why he was so good-tempered all of a sudden: "Yes." He walked out the door with a smile.

Shang Bieyun looked at his back with obscure eyes, sighed silently in his chest, and looked at the bewildered people beside him, but unexpectedly, seeing Yao Ke's face, he refused to follow Instead, Ji Chengfeng squeezed beside him with a face full of enthusiasm and hope, his eyes almost piercing people.

Shang Bieyun recalled, it seemed that he had been staring at himself with this kind of eyes all the way, and couldn't help frowning: "Aren't you going with Ji Zhuo?"

"——" Yao Ke gasped, stomping his feet excitedly: "Talk to me, talk to me!"

After speaking, he put his face close to Shang Bieyun's body: "Everyone, gods, Bodhisattvas, come down later, take off your clothes and let me have a look, okay?"

Shang Bieyun took a deep breath, shook off him, took two tight steps, and chased after Ji Chengfeng.
