different paths

In the end, it was Suo Luzheng's cold and serious voice that broke the silence: "As for the time of death, I will confirm it again." He paused for a moment, glanced expressionlessly at the people with different thoughts, and said, "Just now Since this brother dared to speak out, he must be quite sure. Let’s assume that what he said is true and that the deceased died between noon and you. Then, everyone present, who can prove his innocence? "

As soon as he said this, not only did Lu Changqi's complexion turn ugly, but everyone present also changed their complexions.From the guests who came to visit at the owner's sincere invitation to the suspect who killed the owner's daughter, the identity has changed so much that no one will leave a good face.Especially those who have just rushed to Longyuan Villa today, feeling extremely unlucky. As soon as Suo Luzheng finished speaking, people from these sects hurriedly shouted——

"We haven't been to Longyuan Villa yesterday, so it has nothing to do with this murder!"

"Yes, I arrived an hour ago in a hurry, so I don't have time to kill people!"

"That's right! If you want me to say, the murderer should be someone from the village, the officials can see clearly!"

Those people from the rivers and lakes who stayed in the village saw these new sects eager to get rid of themselves, and tried to pin the shit pot on their heads, so naturally they quit, and said in a strange way: "You say you are on your way, who can do it?" To testify? Come sooner or later, it just so happens that you come at this time, who knows if you are covering up something? In my opinion, it is probably because you have killed someone and dare not show your face!"

The newcomers and the early-arriving sects were divided into two groups, arguing with curses.The newcomer said that the early arrival had hidden murderous intentions, and the early arrival said that the newcomer used the excuse of hurrying to kill people. Neither of the two groups could produce evidence, and neither could convince the other party. They could only rely on their voices. Come and strengthen your momentum.In the lifeless stone room, the sky boiled over for a while, it was like a busy street market.

"Enough." Lu Changqi rested his hand on his forehead and said with a splitting headache, "You all came here for congratulations, why hurt your peace because of a little suspicion? Besides," he looked at Jia Wuhai and sneered, "This kid Most of them are talking nonsense, isn't it ridiculous that the heroes are at odds with each other because of his nonsense?"

His sarcasm did not make Jia Wujue back down. On the contrary, after hearing his words, Jia Wujue walked out generously and retorted: "Master Lu, how can the speculation about who the real culprit is?" Is it a bit of suspicion? This is not only about whether Ling Qianjin can die in peace, but also about the prestige and dignity of the entire Longyuan Villa, does Master Lu think that these two things are not worth mentioning?"

Lu Changqi choked on his words, waved his sleeves, and snorted unceremoniously, but didn't say anything else.

Seeing this, Jia Wujue stopped talking to him, and said to Suo Luzheng, "About the self-proving of innocence, Xiao Ke has some ideas, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

Suo Luzheng glanced at him, nodded slightly and said, "Please tell me, Your Excellency."

"It's hard to say about the new sects that arrived today, but the disciples of the various schools at the Sword Appreciation Conference yesterday have enough evidence to prove their innocence." Jia Wujue looked at the crowd and said, "Heroes who participated in the Sword Appreciation Conference yesterday, everyone If there are other people who can testify, you might as well come to Lord Suolu to report first."

Yesterday's Sword Appreciation Conference started before noon, but ended around You hour.All the sects and sects present have people with great prestige from their own sects. These leaders have been keeping silent under the attention of everyone, and they themselves will not ruin their future because of the pawns in the sect, so the possibility of lying negligible.Furthermore, the isolated peak where the ashram is located is difficult to climb and even harder to descend. To avoid accidents, Longyuan Villa has arranged guards on the top and bottom of the isolated peak to take care of it.Therefore, as long as those who participated in the sword appreciation meeting yesterday and did not leave halfway, the possibility of murder is basically avoided.

As soon as Jia Wujue said these words, the leaders of all sects and sects immediately reacted, and after secretly confirming several times, they all reported to the guards of the Yuqiansi.

"I also ask Master Lu to call the guards who were in charge of responding on the isolated peak yesterday, and I will wait for further verification." Suo Luzheng turned to Lu Changqi and said.

Lu Changqi shook his sleeves with a sullen face, and several black shadows immediately jumped out of the stone room. After a while, a group of guards in gray clothes with the word "Longyuan" engraved on their waist plates came forward.

"At the sword appreciation meeting yesterday, did anyone leave halfway?" Suo Luzheng asked after looking at the list recorded.

"Responding to Lord Suolu, there is no one else except the few from Tiancan Valley who left first." The headed guard in gray bowed his head and replied.

"Tiancangu, I knew it!" Yang Wusi squeezed out from the crowd, cursing, "It must be that these monsters did something good!"

"Master Yang's words are wrong." Lin Luanpo took a step forward, and said with a smile, "We left halfway to detoxify Master Li, how can we have the time to attack Miss Lu? Besides, if we have a way to break through Entering the Jiange, why bother to propose to Master Lu the condition of staying in the Jiange for one night, isn't it superfluous?"

Yang Wusi was made terrified by his smile, hummed twice, and said "Who knows what you are thinking", and stopped talking.

"Is there anyone who can testify about the detoxification that your Excellency said?" Suo Luzheng asked, looking at Lin Luanpo.

"Naturally." Lin Luanpo calmly took out a prescription from his pocket, "Although the grass on the tomb can cure the poison in the body of the master Li, it also needs to be used together with other medicinal materials. I'm going out , the medicinal materials I carry are limited, so after accepting Master Lu, I went to Boxian Town first to buy enough medicinal materials, and then came back to treat Master Li." Then, he handed the prescription to Solu Zheng, "There is also the seal of the Shanmin Church of Boxian Town on it."

Suo Luzheng took the prescription and looked at it: "I will send someone to check it out. If it's true as you said, it's just to confirm that you went out to get the medicine. What about when you come back?"

"Master Suolu really does not leak water." Lin Luanpo chuckled, and said again, "After returning, I immediately took Master Li to another hospital for treatment, and he never left a step. The tea and water exchanges, washing and tidying up here are all done by The maids in the village will take over, as long as Master Suolu asks them, they will know that what I said is true."

Lin Luanpo said it with confidence, and he looked like he was not afraid of the test. In addition, Li Yan was indeed cured by Tian Cangu, so the suspicion of Tian Cangu was almost cleared.

In this way, the guards of Yuqiansi made it difficult.

Among these people from the rivers and lakes, those who were present yesterday had no possibility of killing people, and those who just arrived today have no evidence of murder.If the suspicion is hastily thrown on the new sect, then the world is so big that anyone who cannot prove his innocence should be suspected.

Just when the guards were indecisive, several female disciples of Jianwumen chattered.

"Although we can prove our innocence, some people can't." A female disciple looked at Lu Changqi and said, "Don't Master Lu feel that he has forgotten someone?"

Lu Changqi frowned: "What's the meaning of this? Could it be that you suspect that Mr. Lu has done something to his own daughter! Don't forget that Mr. Lu was always there at the dojo yesterday."

The female disciple smiled brightly: "Why do you need to get angry, Zhuangzhu? Of course we are not talking about you. Instead," she glanced behind Lu Changqi meaningfully, "People around Zhuangzhu."

Although she did not explain this move, everyone understood what she meant.

Lu Changqi has been followed by hidden guards for many years, the most famous of which is the erratic Longyuan Four Guards. They appeared when everyone was unconscious, but when everyone recovered, they disappeared.On the dojo yesterday, although Lu Changqi could prove that he did not leave, how could he prove that the four guardians of Longyuan followed every step of the way?

As the leader of Longyuan's Four Guards, even if Qiu Wanzhan was to testify, it was only a proof of his alibi at night. Who knows where he went and what he did before Youshi?Even if Lu Changqi clarified his movements, he would inevitably be suspected of covering up.In this way, the suspicion of covering up the sun cannot be cleared away.

Lu Changqi also understood at this moment that if he continued to excuse Bingri, he might even bear the infamy of "killing his son".He sighed deeply, his face was ashen, he waved his hands weakly and said: "Lu Mou understands. Come here, let's take down the sun first."

Zhe Ri didn't seem to be surprised when he heard Lu Changqi's order.He stood there silently, without any gesture of resistance, and even his expression did not change slightly.His posture like a tree and stone made those who doubted him feel that he gave up struggling and waited to die, but Jia Wujue saw a bit of despair.

"Wait." Suo Luzheng suddenly said when he saw the guards of Longyuan Villa swarming up to cover the sun.

"What?" Lu Changqi was exhausted at the moment, unable to support his sleek appearance, and said in a tone of impatience, "What advice does Master Suolu have?"

"Since Master Lu has handed over the case to my imperial court, the matter of detaining the suspect will not be bothering Master Lu." Suo Luzheng's tone was calm, without the slightest ups and downs. He spoke to the guards beside him. With a wink, the four imperial guards walked up to Zheri.After all, the people walking in front of the imperial court are different from ordinary people. The guards of Longyuan Villa saw this, and before Lu Changqi could issue an order, they let go of their hands and let the other party hold the sun down.

"What is the meaning of Master Suolu!" Lu Changqi's face turned blue, "Is it possible to doubt that Lu will let the suspect go without permission!"

"Lord Lu is too worried." Suo Luzheng said indifferently, "In order to prevent Master Lu from being offended, it's better for me to do this by myself."

Lu Changqi said "Follow you" bitterly, and wanted to leave in a huff.It's a pity that he didn't take a few steps before he was blocked by someone.

"Did Master Lu forget something?" Lin Luanpo asked while standing in front of Lu Changqi with a smile.

It was only then that Lu Changqi remembered that there was such a thing as Tian Cangu and his party staying in Jiange.He originally wanted to let the guards take all the famous utensils in the Jiange into the treasury before they stayed overnight, but now that there is such a commotion, how could he care about so much.He waved his hand angrily and said, "As long as Lin Shaoxia doesn't dislike it, you can stay in Lu's Jiange as long as you want." After finishing speaking, he left the stone room in disorderly steps, regardless of Lin Luanpo's response.
