Kaifeng Cat and Mouse Detective Manuscript

The coffin next to it looks a little new, and the workmanship is quite rough. It seems that the work has been completed in a hurry, and the edges and corners have not been polished.

"The bottom of this coffin is not completely covered with ice. According to the temperature inside, it should not exceed two days, two days... Is there anyone dead in the Tongtian League besides Yu Yufei?" With force, the board cover slid back inch by inch.

"This isn't..." Zhan Zhao took off the white cloth from the corpse in the ice coffin, and when he saw the face revealed, his eyes were filled with shock, as if he had seen a ghost.

"What? Could it be a rotting corpse..." Seeing Zhan Zhao's inexplicable expression, Bai Yutang poked his head over curiously, and was stuck in his throat immediately.

Inside was the corpse of a young man, his whole body was black, Zhan Zhao touched the body through the linen cloth, it was abnormally stiff.

"He was killed by poison," Bai Yutang said.

"Poison killing... Poison killing..." Zhan Zhao wondered, who can kill people quietly in the Tongtian League, Yu Yufei?

"So that's how it is!" After circling around the spot several times, a thought flashed in Zhan Zhao's mind, he stepped forward to cover the coffin boards again, looked back and forth between the two coffins, and then turned sideways to whisper to Bai Yutang.

"...Since Tongtianmeng is playing this game with us, why don't we continue to play with him and see what their plans are in the end."

After hearing this, Bai Yutang was thoughtful, and made up his mind with Zhan Zhao, continue to act as if he hadn't found this place, and quietly watch Yu Shaotian's follow-up.

There is an iron door behind the coffin. A thick layer of frost has accumulated on the door for many years, and the lines on the handle have been worn away. It seems that people often come. Bai Yutang gently pulled the door open.

Outside is a soil hole, made by man-made grooves, the height reaches the waist of two people, they can only go out by bending over, Bai Yutang stepped forward, Zhan Zhao followed behind carefully closed the door and covered up the footprints.

"I didn't expect it to lead directly to the backyard of Tongtianmeng." The way out of the cave was inside a rockery, and Bai Yutang clapped his hands to clean up the dust on his clothes. Looking up, he saw that it was the one he and Zhan Zhao had walked through the night before. back mountain.

"Just say why no one takes care of this place. It turns out that he is afraid of being discovered. Yu Yufei is also a good planner. He used the name of the Escort at the beginning, and he didn't know what he was doing in private."

The rockery is located halfway up the mountain, surrounded by tall weeds and trees, so it is not easy to see from the top or the bottom.Zhan Zhao roughly observed the direction. This exit was almost in a straight line with the mouth of the well that fell into at that time. If you want to go up, that is, the top of Tongtianmeng, you can clearly see the whereabouts of people on the other side of the river.

The two carefully tidied up the trampled grass and trees, and walked side by side to the mourning hall in the front yard. When they passed the door, they heard a commotion inside, mixed with the sound of Butler Yu's persuasion and the breaking of porcelain.

"What's going on?" Bai Yu turned to look inside, the mourning hall was crowded with dozens of people, most of the attendants stayed by the wall and did not dare to go forward, Steward Yu was pushed to the ground, Yu Shaotian stood in front of the wreath and couldn't stand it. Say something.

"Master Zhan!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't want to take care of Tongtianmeng's family affairs, but when they were about to leave, Butler Yu spotted them with sharp eyes.Bai Yutang pursed his lips, Zhan Zhao expressed helplessness, the two had no choice but to walk in one after the other.

"Young leader, this is?" Since he came in, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but keep silent, cupping his hands at Yu Shaotian, and asked.

"Cough cough", Yu Shaotian's complexion was weak, and he coughed before he could open his mouth, "Master Zhan laughed, this is my father's former subordinate Xu Elder, this time he came here because of the position of leader." Yu Shaotian pointed to Tian Yi and stood there The big man, like Zhan Zhao introduced.

"Master Zhan? Could it be that you are Zhan Zhao, the lackey of the imperial court?" Elder Xu had a ferocious face, holding a pair of meteor hammers in his left hand, and pointing at Zhan Zhao's forehead with his right hand.

"It's Zhan XX." Zhan Zhao moved to the side without a trace, causing Elder Xu's fingers to miss.

"Huh!" Xu Chang snorted coldly, and the meteor hammer hit the ground like a demonstration.

"I didn't know that Zhan Zhao could manage me and the Tianmeng besides managing the affairs of the court!"

"Zhan doesn't want to meddle in the affairs of your alliance, but is entrusted by the young leader to prevent more troubles from happening in your alliance before the rest of the leader is buried in peace." Zhan Zhao remained expressionless.

"Oh, what does Yu Shaotian know as a scholar! Is it possible that he still wants to be the leader of the Tongtian League? Zhan Zhao, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, and don't meddle in your own business here." Elder Xu didn't think so, and called Yu Shaotian directly Daimyo, a toubob style.

"Xu Donghai! You ungrateful thing!" The housekeeper next to him was so angry that he hit Xu Donghai with a cane.

"Old man, you are looking for death!" Xu Donghai was enraged because Butler Yu called Zhan Zhao to die just now, and he kicked him unceremoniously, landing on Butler Yu's chest. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't expect Xu Donghai He would attack an old man in full view, and by the time he realized it, Butler Yu had already been kicked hard.

"Xu Donghai! You are presumptuous!"

Seeing Steward Yu being kicked to the ground, Yu Shaotian held his chest and yelled, "My father's body is still alive! You brought a bunch of people here to make trouble, and you even did it on the mourning hall! Xu Donghai, did you let Tongtianmeng go?" In the eyes! You are simply!"

Yu Shaotian was furious, his palms were shaking on the coffin, and the attendants behind him hurriedly helped him to the seat.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang helped Butler Yu who had fallen to the ground.

"My lord, I'm fine." Butler Yu got up and picked up his crutches again.

"It's better for Steward Yu to go down first, and let us deal with it here." Bai Yutang summoned the maids who were hiding aside, and asked them to send Steward Yu back to the backyard first.

Xu Donghai saw Yu Shaotian sitting on the seat panting, he couldn't help sneering, stood up and walked to the middle of the mourning hall, and said to the crowd who shrank aside, "Tongtian League has always been respected by force. He has worked hard and made great achievements, but how can Yu Shaotian, a mere scholar, assume the position of leader, I think it is better to re-elect him, what do you think?"

Almost all those who came today were affiliated sects of the Tongtian League, and they never dared to refute Xu Donghai, fearing that they would be annihilated if they offended him.

"Elder Xu is right." A hunchbacked middle-aged man stood up and said after discussing with several people around him.

"Yes, we all listened to Elder Xu, how could the Tongtian League allow a boy who is not involved in the world to be the leader of the alliance!" Another echoed.

"Yes, Elder Xu is right..."

"This matter is inappropriate, the Young Leader was made by Leader Yu before his death..." Some people also objected.

"I advise you to think about it," Xu Donghai walked down the steps with his hands behind his back, "What does the Tongtian League rely on to protect you, old and young, that trash up there?" Xu Donghai pointed at Yu Shaotian, "Oh, I'm afraid it won't be a day until he becomes the leader of the alliance. , Jiuhua Wulin will be divided up."

"This... makes sense..."

"Young lord, why not just follow Elder Xu's opinion and respect the strong?"

"You! You!" Yu Shaotian stood up, his complexion turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, which was excited by the words of the audience, and sprinkled it on the corner of the coffin.

"Young leader!" Several attendants panicked to stabilize Yu Shaotian.

"Elder Xu, right? The Tongtian League has a very high status in the southern martial arts. How about waiting for the leader of Wudang and Emei to decide on the position?"

Bai Yutang looked at it for a while, crossed his hands on the top of Zhanlu, and tilted his head to fight for Yu Shaotian.

"Where did you come from, you don't even have full hair, so you have the right to speak? I'm not afraid to taste the taste of Lao Tzu's meteor hammer!" Xu Donghai's eyes were not friendly, and he said viciously because of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's repeated interruptions .

"Where did the bastard come from, why are you talking to your Grandpa Bai!" Bai Yutang couldn't understand this kind of bullying people the most, and turned Zhanlu's sword point to Xu Donghai with his palm.

When Xu Donghai came to his current position, he had never been scolded like this before. He immediately became angry, and came over with a hammer in his hands after a loud shout.

Before the Tongtianmeng guards had time to react, they saw that the meteor hammer was about to lift up and hit Bai Yutang on the forehead.

"Hold on, Elder Xu!" Seeing something was wrong, Zhan Zhao pulled out his giant que to block Bai Yutang's body, a series of sparks were caused by the collision of weapons, and Xu Donghai retreated after being defeated by one move.

"Zhan Zhao, get out of the way!"

Bai Yutang was thrown into flames by this hammer, and he put his palm on Zhan Zhao's shoulder to use his strength to fly into the air. Zhan Lu unsheathed and was about to stab Xu Donghai in the chest. .

The whole mourning hall was in chaos, the maids and servants wanted to hide at the beginning of the chaos, and the rest of the people were just spectators, and no one dared to try to persuade them.

"Don't worry about dead cats. I won't be called Chinchilla if Fifth Master Bai doesn't teach them how to be human today."

Bai Yutang shouted loudly after seeing Zhan Zhao beat back the two guards.

Zhan Zhao knew Bai Yutang's temperament, if he insisted on making a move at this time, it would only make him more angry, so he just waved his hand and backed away, letting him deal with it alone.

Xu Donghai possessed brute force, and the meteor hammer hit with a bang bang, sending up waves of dust in the yard. Bai Yutang was always flexible, and wanted to embarrass Xu Donghai, so he was stalking him like a cat catching a mouse.

Yu Shaotian didn't know if Xu Donghai was so angry that he was out of breath on the chair, Zhan Zhao shook his head secretly, and stood by the pillar to watch the battle.

After several rounds, Xu Donghai gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the guards he brought had already been beaten to the ground.

"Hoohoo..." Xu Donghai panted heavily in the courtyard with a hammer in his hand, "Zhan Zhao, you'd better not meddle in the Tongtian League. A strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake. Whose territory do you think you are in now? Be careful!" I can't eat and walk around."

Seeing that he couldn't beat Bai Yutang, Xu Donghai turned on Zhan Zhao.

"Elder Xu, you are wrong." Zhan Zhao walked forward slowly and stood beside Bai Yutang, "Zhan said before that it will never cause more troubles when the leader Yu goes to the grave, and you are openly in the mourning hall." The first is to provoke, this is one; second, you first attack Bai Yutang, it is his business that he beat you, so why should I intervene in the talk of the alliance with the sky?"
