Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Gongsun asked the shadow guards to find a pine box, carefully put the skeleton planted with fire corpse grass into the box, and put the lid on it.

"The pine wood can absorb the poison emitted by the fire corpse grass, so that people around will not be poisoned." Gongsun frowned, "The planting method of this fire corpse grass is absolutely correct! Is it Huang Tong's plant?"

Zhan Zhao asked Qian Jiu.

Qian Jiu didn't know if Huang Tong had planted this poisonous herb, but everyone in the yamen knew that Huang Tong had a hobby of growing flowers and plants and playing with potted plants, and he planted all the flowers and plants in the yard.

Bai Yutang glanced at the bookshelf behind Huang Tong's desk. There were many books on the shelf, such as medical records, medical books, and grass and trees atlases.

"It seems that he really planted it." Bao Yan flipped through a few books, "Why is the fire corpse planted like this?"

"For all poisonous flowers and plants, this is the safest way to plant them. This method is called lantern enclosure." Gongsun explained, "It doesn't have to be a skeleton, but you can use other materials, as long as it is hollow. A pine pot planted on top of the soil can absorb the toxins well, allowing the fire corpse to grow slowly without poisoning the people who live in the same room as this poisonous weed."

Everyone was discussing the fire corpse grass, outside, a black shadow hurried in and said, "People are dead in the city again!"

Zhan Zhao frowned, "The same way of death as Yuan La?"

"En!" Soi Ying nodded, "The one who died was called Man Shibao, and he was the brother of Man Shihu, the master of Shihu Hall."

Everyone raised their eyebrows. With Man Shihu's character, all his brothers cried like this when they died that day. Now it's their brother's turn, wouldn't they want to cry to death?

"Man Shibao..." Bai Yutang was a little puzzled, "Is he also from the Jianghu?"

"Man Shibao's kung fu is mediocre." Qian Jiu knew the situation of these sects, so he came over and said, "He manages the bodyguard bureau for Man Shihu, and is responsible for collecting money. Man Shihu dotes on this younger brother very much, and indulges him Lawless, often causing troubles on weekdays, although not to the extent of robbing men and women, there are quite a few people who have been bullied by him, and the people in Suzhou Fu all hate him."

Everyone raised their eyebrows—it turned out to be a little bully.

Bao Yan glanced at Pang Yu.

Young master looked up at the sky—cough cough, I guess it was because of my poor state during that time.

"It sounds like you're just an ordinary second-generation ancestor, how did you get killed?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "The death of the other sects is just a rumor so far, but two of Shi Hutang died at once. It's all hanging outside!"

Zhao Pu wanted to ask about the details of Heiying's case, but seeing that Heiying seemed to want to say something more, he looked a little anxious, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Heiying lowered his voice and said, "I don't know what happened, Huofengtang got involved!"

Bai Yutang was slightly taken aback, "What's the matter with shutting down Huofengtang?"

"Speaking of which, the deputy gang leaders of the Fire Phoenix Hall said that they will come to celebrate the New Year." Zhan Zhao counted the days, it should be here in a few days, did they happen?

"I didn't see anyone from Huofengtang when I went, but someone saw a big red boat sailing away." Heiying continued, "There are a lot of people gathered in Shihutang in Beicheng, and those subordinates are talking about Lin Ye. Huo beat Man Shibao from the second floor to the downstairs."

"Didn't Man Stone Leopard bully Lin Yehuo?" Zhao Pu was speechless, "Where's Zou Liang?"

"Should be together, say a man in red and a man in black." Heiying said, "It's also dragged into the Eryan Palace. Everyone in Shihutang is waiting for Man Shihu to pass... Baiying is still guarding there. Come on, I'll come back first to deliver the message."

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Did Man Shibao die after Lin Yehuo beat Man Shibao?"

Black Shadow nodded, "I can hear this clearly, front foot and back foot."

"Although Man Shihu is reckless, he is not stupid." Bai Yutang thought nothing of it, "Lin Yehuo just arrived in Suzhou Mansion, but this man has been dead since a month ago."

"That's what I said, I'm afraid of getting angry." Zhan Zhao touched his chin.

Everyone looked at each other. People in the Jianghu are always unreasonable... Man Shihu seems to have great potential in this regard!

Master Bao asked Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang to go to the city first to see what was going on, they couldn't just ignore the successive deaths!

Zhao Pu asked Long Qiaoguang to go and have a look, Zou Liang didn't care about the tricks of the Jianghu people, if the people from Shihutang really troubled Lin Yehuo, don't be killed by him.

Long Qiaoguang followed Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and the others back to Suzhou Mansion.

At this time, in the north of Suzhou City, there were many people surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.

The deaths of Jianghu people in the past few times did not cause such a big sensation, and even Yuan La was hanged on a high-rise plaque, only a small number of people cared about it.But Man Stone Leopard probably made a lot of enemies on weekdays, and it was indeed annoying. There were too many onlookers, and it was impossible to get around.The people in the city spread word of mouth that the little overlord Man Shibao died, and everyone's evaluations were similar--I knew that he would cause trouble like this, as expected!Let someone clean it up.

Moreover, rumors of such things are easy to be misleading, and the rumors spread that Man Shibao provoked Lin Yehuo, the number one expert in the Western Regions, and was killed by the people of Huofengtang.

The more Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang heard it, the more they felt something was wrong. Long Qiaoguang folded his arms, "Hey, if you just listen to the rumors and don't find out the reason, Man Shihu will have to find Lin Yehuo to do his best!"

At this time, a person walked up to them quickly, and bowed his hands to everyone, "Everyone, come here and be safe."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang turned their faces, and saw a handsome old man with gray hair, it was Liu Hanxing.

Liu Hanxing is Lu Linger's biological father, according to his seniority, he is Bai Yutang's elder.

Both Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao saluted Liu Hanxing and called him old man.

Liu Hanxing came all the way from the Western Regions this time because he also wanted to spend a new year with Lu Linger.

Long Qiaoguang folded his arms and asked Liu Hanxing, "Old man, did your hall master just beat up the stone leopards, or did he kill the people as rumored?"

Liu Hanxing had expected that something would happen just now, so he asked everyone to go back first, and he stayed to watch the development of the matter.

"When we left the restaurant, Man Shibao was still alive and well." As he spoke, Liu Hanxing told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang what happened just now in detail, "Man Shihu just arrived, and there was some confusion among the crowd. People who know Shihutang, it is best to find someone who understands to communicate with them later, so as not to misunderstand."

Zhan Zhao and the others looked up into the crowd, and sure enough, there were many masters from Shihutang surrounded the alley, and Man Shihu's cries could be faintly heard.

At this moment, a person came out from the crowd, and seemed to have noticed Zhan Zhao and the others outside the crowd.

This person had met once before, and it was Shihutang's second master, Pan Li.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, from the previous performance, this guy is a sensible person.

Pan Li walked towards Zhan Zhao and the others, bowed his hands to everyone, and asked straight to the point, "Everyone, I heard that Shi Bao had a conflict with the head of the Fire Phoenix Hall?"

Zhan Zhao introduced Liu Hanxing to him, and Liu Hanxing gave him an overview of what happened.

Liu Hanxing was also very forthright, "After we left the inn, we boarded the boat together. As soon as we boarded the boat, we heard the news that Man Shibao had been killed. His death has absolutely nothing to do with my Huofengtang."

Pan Li frowned, the same as what he had just heard from some Shihutang disciples who came to negotiate with Man Shibao!If it is said that Lin Yehuo beat Man Shibao, he did not. He just taught him a lesson. Man Shibao was purely begging for beatings. Pan Li knew his usual virtues better than anyone else.Lin Yehuo was being merciful, but then again, Lin Yehuo might as well beat him so that he couldn't stand up, so he wouldn't die if he carried him back to Shihutang.That alley leads to the back door of Huixiangju. Although Huixiangju has an elegant name, it is a high-end kiln. Man Shibao is a regular customer, so he died at the back door of the kiln. It is a shame!It's better to kill a master like Lin Yehuo to save face.

Zhan Zhao observed Pan Li's expression, and then glanced at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang also understood Zhan Zhao's meaning - Pan Li should be very sure that this case has nothing to do with Lin Yehuo, does he know who the murderer is?Even if you don't know it, at least you know it.

Pan Li bowed his hands to everyone, said "Farewell", and was about to go back.

But Zhan Zhao stopped him, "Second leader."

Pan Li stopped and looked back at Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao suddenly said, "The transshipment envoy of Liangzhe Road..."

Zhan Zhao spoke very slowly, and he could see Pan Li's expression.

Pan Li seemed to be in a daze, but seeing that Zhan Zhao stopped talking, he was puzzled, "Master Huang?"

Looking at his expression, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang probably didn't know that Huang Tong was dead...Since Hua Yichen had seen Huang Tong's body, it was impossible to hide Huang Tong's death from him. necessary.

Zhan Zhao continued, "Master Huang is dead."

Pan Li was obviously taken aback, "What?"

"You Shihutang also lost two people, don't you consider reporting to the officials?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Pan Li frowned, and said, "Someone actually murdered an official of the imperial court. Of course, Lord Zhan must deal with it. But the death of my sect is a grievance between the world and we will solve it ourselves. Don't bother Lord Zhan to worry about it." After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and left .

Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly.

Bai Yutang said, "His reaction was a bit strange."

Zhan Zhao also nodded, "It's indeed strange."

Long Qiaoguang stroked his chin and asked Liu Hanxing, "Old man, if you were Pan Li, and you heard that the transfer envoy of Liangzhe Road also died, what would you ask?"

Liu Hanxing smiled faintly, "I will definitely ask, is it the same way of death as Man Stone Leopard?"

"He didn't ask, and he didn't even respond, but it doesn't seem like he knew Huang Tong was dead beforehand." Zhan Zhao crossed his arms, "I can only say that he was sure to kill Huang Tong, the same as Yuan La and Man Shi. Leopard's is not the same person."

"Speaking of people..." Liu Hanxing said, "General Zou said just now that he saw a very suspicious man in black."

"The man in black?" Long Qiaoguang was curious, "Who did he see?"

"It's said to be a man in black clothes, black hat, and black veil." Liu Hanxing said, "General Zou saw him appear near the alley where the stone leopard was killed. There was a white pattern on the black robe. It looked a bit like a spider, but the general didn't see it too clearly."

"It's a spider again!" Zhan Zhao thought of the group of spiders that Huang Tong spit out from his mouth, not to mention anything else, at least this murderer has a strong taste!

"This outfit seems to be similar to the man in black that Tan Shaoyan mentioned." Bai Yutang said, "But Tan Shaoyan didn't mention that the man in black has a white pattern on his cloak."

At this time, the crowd dispersed, Man Shihu and the people from Shihutang rode away carrying his brother's body on horseback.

"Murderous and angry are more than grief." Liu Hanxing felt that it was not good.

Sure enough, Man Shihu yelled, "I, Shihutang, and Huofengtang are incompatible!"

Long Qiaoguang was puzzled, "Are you confused? Don't tell me it has nothing to do with Huofengtang!"

"It seems to be for other people to hear." Bai Yutang frowned, "Most of them are listening to rumors, so everyone will think that the rumors are true!"

Liu Hanxing also had a bad expression on his face, "This is no longer venting anger, but framing me, Huofengtang!"

"Waiting for news like this is not an option." Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, "The most direct way is to listen to what they have to say."

Bai Yutang nodded slightly.

"Want to eavesdrop?" Long Qiaoguang was excited, "But Shihu Hall should be heavily guarded, it will be difficult to sneak in."

"Is it difficult?" Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "It's not difficult to sneak in anywhere!"

Long Qiaoguang was taken aback.

On the side, Liu Hanxing also smiled slightly.

Bai Yutang lowered his head and whispered to Shark who appeared behind him, "Follow them."

Shark flashed...following Man Shihu's team.

Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and the others also followed from a distance, planning to attack Shi Hutang to find out what these gangsters are hiding.
