"Are you questioning me?" Xiao Xu walked up to Hong Ji and stood still, looking down at her with disdainful eyes.

"How dare Hongji." Hongji's voice was very soft, and it was blown away by the wind.

Xiao Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Do you think this little trick of yours can be of much use? I can make you the number one oiran in Fulu Pavilion, and I can also make you disappear without a sound! Do I give you too much power? Big, are you starting to play tricks on me?"

Hong Ji lowered her eyes and looked away, but didn't answer.

Xiao Xu saw her uneasiness in her eyes, turned her back and called Ziyou in, "You know what to do!" Ziyou answered "Yes" after a moment's pause.

Hong Ji was pulled by Ziyou and stood up, with sad eyes, "My lord, Hong Ji has been with you for so long, are you going to punish me for this trumped-up crime?"

"Take it down!" Xiao Xu's voice was deep.

Ziyou gave Hongji a complicated look, and pulled her away...

Xiang Wenliu was walking on the road with the leaf in his hand that should not have appeared.

When Yu Siyi met Xiang Wenliu, he saw that he was out of his mind, and patted him on the shoulder from behind, "What are you thinking?"

Xiang Wenliu was taken aback, and the leaf in his hand fell to the ground. He greeted Leng Lianyue, and Leng Lianyue gave him a lukewarm look.

Yu Siyi glanced at something that fell from Xiang Wenliu's hand from the corner of his eye, bent down to pick it up, "This...what are you doing walking around with a leaf?" A thought came out, "Is it the same as Lu? Tong related?"

Xiang Wenliu pulled the corner of his mouth, "...Yes." He told Yu Siyi about the leaf.

Yu Siyi pondered: "So there is a high probability that he met in this forest?"

Yu Siyi and Leng Lianyue looked at each other, he handed the leaves to Xiang Wenliu and told him to keep them safe, and the two rushed to the woods.

When they arrived, the four sisters were already waiting by the forest, and Yu Siyi asked her to find places where the fallen leaves were newer or thicker, and the four of them scattered to look for them.

Since the murderer dumped Lu Tong's body in another forest, there was nothing to be found in that place, so the first scene would not be much better, but in such a short time, the murderer must only be able to clean up the blood on the surface. However, there is no time to deal with the ones that flow into the soil, so there is a high probability that they will be covered with leaves again so that they cannot be found for a while, and then they will find an opportunity to clean them up later.But the other party probably didn't expect that they would find a leaf on Lu Tong's body, allowing them to find this place so quickly.

The forest is not very big, and Ding Ran came back in about a quarter of an hour to report that he had found it.

A few people stood there, the ground was flat, and if you didn’t look carefully, you couldn’t tell the difference, but compared with the fallen leaves in other places, it was obvious that the color of these fallen leaves was much brighter, and the fallen leaves would deteriorate after falling on the ground for a while , the color will change from green to yellow to dark brown. The normal fallen leaves in a place should have different colors first and then, but here there are only fresh yellow ones.

Yu Siyi slapped the ground, and the wind of the palm swept away the leaves to reveal the soil below, and a clear black mark appeared in front of several people, about four or five feet long, in the shape of a spray.

Xie Yang was sitting on the roof looking at the dark night sky in a daze, the sound of the wind flashed beside him, and a light pink skirt fluttered, he swept his eyes, "Little beauty, you can be regarded as coming back,"

"Master is waiting for your reply." Si Yu looked forward.

Xie Yang yawned and stretched his waist, "Forget it, no matter who your master is, I don't want to see you anymore." He fished into his pocket, took out a rolled up paper and handed it to the side, "Take this Well, I asked someone to draw the portrait of the man in black."

Siyu took it, unfolded it for a look, rolled it up again, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey!" Xie Yang grabbed the hem of her skirt and looked up at her, "Aren't you? You left without saying thank you?"

Si Yu looked down at the hand, "Thank you? Which one do you want to remove? An arm or a leg?" His voice was cold.

Xie Yang felt a chill in his wrist for an instant, retracted his hand awkwardly, and stood up on his legs, "If you don't thank me, you won't thank me, so what are you doing so fiercely. By the way, we have met several times, so it's not too much to tell the name?"

Si Yu put the portrait in his sleeve, turned around and looked at Xie Yang, "Si Yu."

Xie Yang pushed his canine teeth with the tip of his tongue, "The name is really nice."

Si Yu ignored him, jumped off the roof and left.

It wasn't until Xie Yang was completely invisible from Si Yu's figure that he withdrew his gaze and looked up at the starless sky, thinking that it was going to rain...

Yu Siyi dipped his index finger into the inkstone, and the ink flew out and splashed on the paper, and the remaining ink fell down along his fingertips. He wiped the remaining ink next to the falling ink, and it became a pitch black mass .

Leng Lianyue couldn't understand what the hell he was doing, "What are you doing?"

Yu Siyi motioned him to look at the paper, "Don't you think this is very similar to the blood we saw earlier?"

"so?"

Yu Siyi rested her chin in thought, "There is only one wound on the side of Lu Tong's neck, the murderer must have succeeded in one blow, he can be approached so easily..."

Leng Lianyue continued: "The murderer may be someone he knows, so he was unprepared!"

This is intriguing.

Siyu came in and offered the drawing paper to Leng Lianyue with both hands, "This is the portrait of the man in black given by Xie Yang."

"Oh?" Yu Siyi moved her head to Leng Lianyue's side, "Open it and have a look."

The drawing paper was unfolded, and a man in his early thirties appeared on the paper. If it wasn't for the scar on his face and the sharp eyes, he should be a gentle and refined man.

Yu Siyi raised his eyebrows, he always felt that this person looked familiar, but he could be sure that he had never seen him before.

Lu Tong did not bring many people with him to participate in the Chaohua Festival, except that he was some disciples and servants. After his death, there was no one who could make decisions. They reported Lu Tong's affairs back, and soon the Lu family sent people over. , is Lu Tong's eldest brother - Lu Tong.

When Lu Tong saw his younger brother's body, he shed tears sadly, and immediately ordered someone to carry Lu Tong's body away and take him home for burial.

Yu Siyi frowned, didn't most people think of finding the murderer the first time they saw their relatives being killed?Why is this elder brother going to drag people to bury him as soon as he arrives?He secretly looked at Lu Yu, who was still wiping his eyes with his sleeve, looking very sad.

Xiang Wenliu stepped forward and cupped his hands at Lu Yu, "I think it's not right. There are still many doubts about Linger's body. I wanted to check the body in detail, but the body is inconvenient and damaged. I just want to wait." When Mr. Lu arrives, you can agree to investigate carefully, how can you bury him without investigation? Isn’t this just annihilating possible clues?”

Lu Yu put down his tear-wiping hand and saluted Wenliu, his eyes were still red, "Young Master Xiang said that when I suddenly saw my younger brother like this, I was so angry... It was inevitable that I didn't think carefully, so I asked Young Master gone."

Xiang Wenliu glanced at him and said "should".

With Lu Yan's consent, the idlers all exited the door and waited next door. The assistant he brought helped arrange the necessary utensils one by one. Yu Siyi looked at those knives, clips and the like, and twitched the corners of his mouth. .Xiang Wenliu looked funny, "You'd better go out and wait."

Yu Siyi pondered for a while, feeling that there was no need to make things difficult for him, so he followed the crowd out.

There were quite a few people standing in the next room, Lu Yu saw Yu Siyi coming in and nodded towards him, Yu Siyi returned the gift and took Leng Lianyue to a secluded place to wait, the four sisters stood not far away and looked at each other alert.

Their position is just right to have a panoramic view of the whole room. Lu Yu sat on the position and drank tea slowly, showing no sign of anxiety at all, but the manager of Cuizhu Villa was frowning.

Yu Siyi remembered that the steward was named Chu Ci, who was considered to be a very high-ranking person in Cuizhu Villa, and it was only then that he discovered that Nangong Yu'er hadn't shown up for such a big event!He asked Ding Ran where Nangong Yu'er's people were, and only then did he know that Nangong Yu'er left Cuizhu Villa on the night when the Flower Festival ended.

Nearly two hours had passed, and Xiang Wenliu hadn't come out yet, Chu Ci ordered the servants to bring the lunch, and everyone used some casually, not thinking about eating.

Standing in the room is also boring, Yu Siyi asked the four sisters to stay, and if Xiang Wenliu found anything, let them tell him when they heard it, and he left with Leng Lianyue.

The two walked in the villa for a while before meeting Shao Huaiyu. Seeing him rushing this way, Yu Siyi stopped him, "Brother Shao, please wait a moment, can I ask you a few questions?"

Shao Huaiyu nodded, and the three of them walked to the stone table next to them and sat down. Shao Huaiyu put the sword on the table, "Master Yu, you are welcome, just ask."

Yu Siyi glanced at the sword body. The black scabbard was carved with very simple patterns, which were not ostentatious, and gave people a sense of weight that had been precipitated in the long river of time. He looked at Shao Huaiyu and asked, "Do you still remember Did anything special happen the night Lu Tong was killed?"

Shao Huaiyu thought for a while, and said: "The three of us met for a drink that night. Brother Lu also said that his family never let him drink. He wanted to drink a lot. If he knew that this kind of thing would happen... "

Yu Siyi frowned, "According to what you said, Yun Mucheng has a very good relationship with you, why did he leave in such a hurry the next day?"

Shao Huaiyu didn't know either, "Thinking about it, the family is in a hurry. After all, the Yun family is a family with strong financial resources, and it is normal for all parties to be busy with business."

"He didn't say goodbye to you when he left?" Yu Siyi asked.

Shao Huaiyu shook his head, he stroked the scabbard, and unconsciously touched the pattern with his thumb.

Yu Siyi couldn't figure it out, Yun Mucheng was so busy that he didn't even have time to say goodbye?He continued to ask a few more questions, and Shao Huaiyu answered them all.

After answering Yu Siyi's question, Shao Huaiyu left.

Leng Lianyue asked: "Have you found any doubts?"

Yu Siyi said: "The strangest thing here is probably Yun Mucheng, but he has already left, and there is no one to ask."

Leng Lianyue got up and looked at him, "Ding Ran can go, with her ability, it is not difficult to catch up with him."

Yu Siyi smiled, "Master Leng is willing to lend me someone?"

Leng Lianyue glanced at him, "If I say no, will you really not?"

Yu Siyi pursed her lips and smiled, "Where is the Palace Master, I have always listened to you the most."

Leng Lianyue gave him a cold look.

Originally, they were here to find out the truth about the extermination of the family. One incident was unresolved and another incident happened again. The murderer was blatant and destroyed the scene. After a few days, no useful clues were found.

Yu Siyi asked the guards in Lu Tong's courtyard that night, but the guards said nothing and didn't notice or hear them. After all, if they slipped out in the middle of the night with their young master's martial arts, they wouldn't be able to find out.Yu Siyi was surprised because of this point, why Lu Tong would go out alone in the middle of the night, if there is something to ask others to do it.Or it was because something happened suddenly, and he had to go immediately!

When Ding Ran was not here, the task of inquiring about news fell to Siyu, and Yu Siyi asked her to inquire about the relationship between Lu Tong and Lu Yu.Half a day later, Si Yu came back to report, and learned from Lu's servants that the two brothers were half-brothers, and that they were brothers and sisters in front of outsiders, but their servants knew that the relationship between the two was not good. What a great talent, Lao Ai used some shady means to compete for favor in front of Father Lu.

Lu Tong was a martial idiot, he never cared whether his elder brother liked him or not, because he was a martial arts prodigy and attracted the attention of the family, there were rumors that Lu's father intended to pass on the position of head of the family to Lu Tong.Lu Yu was dissatisfied, so he wanted to do something big to impress his father, but unfortunately every time he failed, either he was cheated out of money or made a mess of things, and he admired how he could turn good things into bad things. To sum it up in one sentence, it means that you have an ambitious heart but no corresponding talents.

Originally, Lu Tong wanted to participate in this Chaohua Festival, but Lu's father directly refused, and even scolded him. When he returned to the residence, he was furious at the servants, and cursed and said that he must make Lu Tong look good in the future. Let his father regret not paying attention to him.Although the relationship between the two is not good, and Lu Yu always troubled Lu Tong, but he never killed him.

Yu Siyi was very funny after hearing this. When the eldest son of the Lu family first arrived, he cried sadly. People who didn't know the truth thought that the relationship between their brothers was so good.

If it was true what those servants said, Father Lu should have loved Lu Tong very much, why didn't he come in person?

Nangong Yuer immediately rushed to the hall where everyone was waiting when she came back from other places. Chu Ci finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, "Ma'am!" Then she looked at her son behind Nangong Yuer, with a gratified smile on her face. Yu Qing stepped forward and grabbed Chu Ci's hand and called "Mother".

Nangong Yu'er nodded to her, and everyone got up to greet her, Lu Yu stepped forward, "Master Nangong is really a busy person, it took so many days for my younger brother to have an accident, it's really frustrating I have to wonder if this has something to do with your villa, what do you mean by deliberately delaying and not trying your best?"

Nangong Yu'er looked at him, "I wonder who this is?"

"You..." Lu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled again: "Of course, the master of Nangong doesn't recognize me. I am Lu Tong's elder brother, Lu Tong." After finishing speaking, he adjusted his collar and straightened his back.

Seeing his behavior, Nangong Yu'er thought about Lu Tong again. This comparison made the two of them stand out from each other. No wonder no one mentioned this elder brother. She clasped her fist at Lu Tong, "So it's Mr. Lu, It's because I'm blind. Since this happened in our villa, we should do our best to investigate it, so you can rest assured!"

Lu Yan sneered, "It's best like this," he said, leaning closer to Nangong Yu'er, and said softly, "Otherwise, the cooperation between the three of us and your Cuizhu Villa will come to an end!" After finishing speaking, Shi Shiran After leaving, several disciples of the Lu family looked at each other, and they all chased after him.

Nangong Yu'er looked at Lu Yu's back, and various emotions flashed in her eyes. It's really lamentable that a hero like Lu Chonghai has such a son!Chu Ci looked at her worriedly, "Ma'am..." Nangong Yu'er signaled that she was fine, and sat beside her to let Chu Ci tell her what had happened in the past few days.

Because of the sudden incident in Yancheng, she left Cuizhu Villa overnight, and only received the news of Lu Tong's murder the next day. The situation was urgent, so she could only go to deal with the matter first, and then rushed back without stopping. He rubbed his throbbing forehead and braced himself to deal with the series of things.

Xiang Wenliu just stepped into the door, and everyone looked at him, and those who were sitting stood up, and he waved his hand at everyone to signal to wait, there was still blood on his hand that was too late to clean up. He fetched water to wash him.

After taking a big sip of tea, Xiang Wenliu opened his mouth to tell everyone about his new discovery. He found a white powder in Lu Tong's nasal cavity, which was a kind of drug.There was a strong smell of alcohol in his stomach. It was speculated that he must still be in a state of drunkenness at that time, and no trace of poisoning was found on his body.

After everyone thanked Xiang Wenliu, they left. Xiang Wenliu went back to the yard to take a shower and change clothes. Just after getting dressed, Yu Siyi came in. Xiang Wenliu glanced at him, "I thought you were not satisfied with my inspection results. I care."

Yu Siyi stretched her legs and sat down at the table, and poured herself a cup of tea, "Waiting is a waste of time, why don't you take the opportunity to find any new clues, tell me, what you found."

Xiang Wenliu recounted the discovery of the drug in Lu Tong's trachea, "Why do you think that man used the drug?"

Yu Siyi took a sip of tea, "Maybe it's because I don't have confidence in my martial arts, and I'm afraid I won't be able to kill Lu Tong. Is this drug hard to get?"

Xiang Wenliu shook his head, "It's not difficult, as long as you can afford it, it will be stronger than ordinary drugs."
