Queen's Detective

"Hoo--" An arrow crossed the sky and shot into the bull's-eye.

The tail feathers trembled, but the arrow was firmly nailed there, not moving at all.

Li Yan put down the hand holding the long bow, picked up another arrow, strung the string, bent the bow, focused his eyes, aimed, snapped, and let go.

The next arrow is inserted into the gap in the target from the previous arrow, and it is firmly nailed.

"My lord, someone is coming." A lone voice sounded from behind.

Li Yan didn't look back, and continued to draw his bow and set his arrows intently. Someone walked up to him, fiddled with the arrow feathers next to him, and said, "My lord, the investigation has some clues."

"Say." Li Yan let go and shot another arrow.

"Hero Yan has been investigating the same matter for the past few years, the case of the destruction of the Yan Mansion. As we all know, the old man of the Yan family was unwilling to cooperate with the rebel army, and secretly caused a lot of trouble for you. Later, His Royal Highness Li Wang Asking Luo Sha to arrest Yan Sanbai as a threat, the Yan family compromised on the surface, but secretly they have not yet surrendered. However, the Yan family is a powerful party after all, with many followers, private soldiers, and strong financial resources. In fact, the rebel army cannot What to do with him."

"I know all of this." Li Yan glanced at him.

The visitor shrugged his shoulders, "Anyway, everyone thought that the Hongheling case had nothing to do with King Li, but he did it. Everyone thought that the destruction of the Yan family was also done by King Li, but it happened that he was not responsible. I think what Yan Daxia has been looking for these past few years is the real murderer. It's just that he doesn't know who it is, so with his indifferent personality, he will take part in the imperial examination and expose himself to the murderer's sight under."

Li Yan didn't answer, and the visitor continued: "Hero Yan came to the court from Jianghu, and I have reason to suspect that the murderer is hidden in the court, but Hero Yan hasn't done anything for a long time, so I can't be sure. Which one is it, or rather, which group is it?"

Li Yan's eyes were dark, and he didn't care who the murderer was.The visitor looked at it with great interest, and twiddled the feathers with his fingertips, "Oh, yes, I just got the news that the Great Xia Yan jumped from the Falling Goose Valley, my lord, you—"

"Crack!" A crisp sound interrupted his words. He followed the sound and saw that the thick target was shot through, and the whole target was broken into several pieces.

Li Yan finally had a reaction, and it was a big reaction. His frowning brows and the sharp light in his eyes suddenly burst out, as if he was about to kill someone, "You said he jumped off?"

"Yeah, I know you must be worried, my lord, so Lu Shuangxing followed him all the way, but who would have thought that he just jumped off like this. He is very good at lightness, maybe he can go to Luoyan Valley, but we can't. Now Lu Shuangxing I’m still waiting outside, and I’ll report back first.”

Li Yan's first reaction was to turn around and look for someone.

Ling Ding hurriedly stopped him, "My lord, we are still fighting! The commander in chief of the army, don't leave the camp without authorization!"

Li Yan's face was serious, and he was also anxious alone, but he couldn't let Li Yan follow him to jump off the cliff, could he?

The visitor also dissuaded him: "My lord, Yan Daxia came out of Luoyang Valley a few years ago. If he can come out once, he can come out a second time. It will also cause trouble for him if others go."

"I know." Li Yan's murderous aura finally calmed down a little. He rubbed the center of his brows and suddenly felt a headache.When they parted a few days ago, he shouldn't have agreed to Yan Sanbai's separate actions.

Li Yan turned his head and looked at the handsome young man dressed as a scholar who was smiling behind him, "Su Ran."

"I am here, my lord."

"You and Lu Shuangxing go to guard outside the Luoyan Valley, and bring him back as soon as he comes out. Even if you tied him up, you have to tie him up!"

Su Ran spread her hands, her face full of helplessness, "My lord, it's not that I don't want to try, but the combination of Lu Shuangxing and I may not be able to beat a hero Yan."

Li Yan raised his forehead, "Then you tell him that if I don't see him again, I will jump off the cliff by myself!"

"Okay, okay, then I'll tell him, my lord, you are suffering from lovesickness and are dying, okay?"

Li Yan rolled his eyes at him, but at the moment he was not in the mood to joke with Su Ran, "In short, he must be brought back. As for the others, you don't need to investigate any more."

"Don't check?" Su Ran was slightly startled.It has been so many years since they searched all the way from Rakshasa to Yan Sanbai. Could it be that all their previous efforts were wasted at this time?

"No more investigations." Li Yan's words revealed a firm determination, "He promised me that he would tell me everything when he came back this time, so no more investigations."

"You believe him?"

"I believe in him."

Su Ran was silent, but after being silent for a while, he was relieved again.

"It's up to you. Anyway, the Langhuan Pavilion is yours, and Yan Sanbai is yours too. Everything is up to you, my lord. I'll just wait and see. But what about Mr. Mei?"

"Of course we need to continue to investigate over there." Li Yan threw the longbow in his hand onto the weapon rack, "I admit that he is very powerful, and the intricate details make people puzzled. But the bigger the net, the more loopholes and elbows will be. Many. During this period of time, His Majesty and I have pulled out a lot of his chess pieces, and he should be unable to hold back anymore."

Ling Ding said: "Yes, what's more, the prince is now in control of the army. Once you have news, you can behead him immediately. No matter how many tricks he plays, he can't compare with our fists."

Su Ran gave him a squinting look, "A reckless man."

Alone touched his nose indifferently, "If it were you who followed the prince, you would be as virtuous. If I hadn't lost in the boxing game, I might be a generation of heroes now."

"Report!" At this moment, the messenger rushed over, "My lord, the enemy is coming!"

Li Yan turned around suddenly, his eyes were cold.

A moment later, the army was beating like thunder.

The war horse neighed, and the scarlet cloak rattled.

The goshawk flew to the sky in an instant like lightning, and the sound of brutality resounded through the sky.

Su Ran tugged at the reins, put on the bamboo hat, "Drive!", and drove out of the camp gate like lightning, heading towards the opposite direction of the battlefield.

The war started again, but this time it was no longer King Li who was so powerful and ruthless. King Luoyang went into battle for the first time, which undoubtedly made him fall into the center of the world again.

As the saying goes, a tiger father has no dogs, and everyone is waiting for the day when the wind and clouds will really rise.

However, before the smoke of the frontier fortress really ignited, a major event occurred in the Central Plains Wulin. One of the four sects, Qingshan Sword Sect, suffered more than half of the casualties overnight. A whetstone.

Xu Changjin, the chief disciple of the Qingshan Sword Sect, temporarily defected to Shaolin with his surviving brothers. For a while, everyone in each sect was in danger.Not long afterward, Tang Qianjun, the second son of Xiling Mountain Villa, led his people to Shaolin Temple. There was a lot of suspicion in the martial arts circle, because the unreliable relationship of trust in the Tianqi Palace incident last time was gradually disintegrating.

And at this moment, Langhuan Pavilion announced to the outside world the leading figures in this Demon Cult—the Yingchuan Chen family, Chen Shanwen, former Qingshan Sword Sect disciples.

Chen Shanwen was expelled from the Chen family by Mrs. Chen who abandoned his car to protect his handsome man after Tianqi Palace incident.His wife Ning Xiang also brought Chen Xuxu back to Qingshan Sword Sect in order to save her daughter.Fortunately, the Tianshan sect spoke, and the other sects did not embarrass them.

But this time it was embarrassing. After Qingshan Swordzong's accident, Ning Xiang and Chen Xuxu disappeared, and because of the special identities of these two people, the identity of the Qingshan Swordzong victim became very subtle.

So in just half a month, there were turbulent winds and clouds in the rivers and lakes. In the end, Tianhua faction started to re-elect the leader of the martial arts alliance in Shaolin Temple on the first day of next month.

What is surprising is that the Tianshan faction, who has always been carefree, did not speak, which is strange.And another giant, Hanshan Chuntingguan, also upholds the usual detached attitude. Their most well-known disciples, one is a national teacher in Chang'an, and the other is fighting in the frontier. find them.As for Qiu Xuzi, this man has seen the beginning and the end, and when he is found, the matter will be over long ago.

At this time, about half a mile away from Luoyan Valley, a father and son who had just returned from the market were driving an ox cart and passed a mass grave in order to take a shortcut.

This mass grave has been around for a long time, and the deserted graves are covered with weeds, and there are occasional crows looking for food here, and it becomes extremely eerie at night.The father and son couldn't help speeding up, not daring to look at the bulging little high ground.

In fact, it is not the first time for the two of them to pass by, and they are still a little bit worried after all, but this time, the son sitting in the car suddenly heard a strange voice coming from the grave, very dull, 'Boom—boom ——Boom—', the young man was very curious, so he couldn't help but glance over there.

I saw a bulging grave bag trembling slightly. With the sound of thumping, the trembling became stronger and stronger, and the soil became loose, as if something was about to break through the ground.

"Dad, dad! Look!" The son tugged at his father's sleeve in horror, and the father also turned his head to take a look. White hands suddenly stretched out from the grave, grabbed the soil next to it, and crawled out with all its strength.

"Damn it's a corpse!" The father was more terrified than the son, and he swung the whip heavily in his hand. The old cow was in pain, and ran forward desperately after screaming a few times.

The bullock cart kicked up a cloud of dust, which soon disappeared into the mass grave.

The night came unexpectedly, the hand that broke through the ground pulled for a while, and finally managed to break through all the earth and rocks on it, and then, from the grave, a person crawled out, dressed in white, which really looked like ghost.

"Huh..." He let out a long breath, brushed off the dust on his body, and looked back at the grave that he had pushed open.

No one would have thought that there was a coffin at the bottom of Luoyan Valley, nor would they have thought that there was a secret passage in the coffin leading to the outside, let alone that the exit of this secret passage was still a coffin, and it was above the mass grave.

Yan Sanbai knelt down and looked at the coffin for a long time before returning it to its original shape.

During this period, he remembered that he heard something just now, tilted his head and thought for a while, but seeing that there was no ghost around him, he had no choice but to forget about it, and left in the dark.

And when he left, because the mass grave was some distance away from Luoyan Valley, he happened to bypass Lu Shuangxing and Su Ran.

What to do next?

Yan Sanbai was roasting the bonfire alone in the wild, after thinking about it, he decided to go to Li Yan first.He had already promised him, so naturally he couldn't break his promise.

However, the next day, when Yan Sanbai entered the nearby city, he realized that such a major event had happened in the martial arts world.So he stayed for an extra day to inquire about the situation.

"Xiao Er, are there many people coming and going in the rivers and lakes recently?" Yan Sanbai sat in the lobby of the inn and ordered some porridge and side dishes.

Xiao Er saw that although the young man was well-mannered, he had a knife on his waist, so he seemed to be a quack, so he said, "Isn't that right, nine out of ten are going to Shaolin, young master, do you want to go there too?"

"I'm just asking casually."

Hearing what he said, Xiaoer didn't talk too much, but this young master knew him well, so he took care of him, "But young master, the place has been in a mess recently, and we are the only ones staying in this small inn. Many heroes, if you go to Shaolin, you should hurry up and get on the road, and when you arrive in Shaolin, there may be some masters in charge, so maybe there will be more peace.”

Yan Sanbai nodded with a smile, and handed over a few copper coins as a token of thanks—this is what he learned from Li Yan, and he relied on Kong Fang when he was out.

Xiao Er was really happy, and talked to Yan Sanbai for a while, but he was not from the martial arts after all, and some of what he said was still wrong.For example, although there are monks in Shaolin, it is not necessarily more peaceful than here.

Thinking this way, there was a sudden quarrel behind them.Yan Sanbai looked back, and saw a figure was kicked away, smashed several tables and chairs, and hit the stairs all the way, with a 'bang—', the teacup in front of Yan Sanbai trembled slightly.

"Damn! I gave you three points of face, so you kicked your nose in the face, right? You dare to hit my people?!" In front, a bearded man grabbed a tall and thin young man by the collar, looking fierce.

The other party obviously didn't buy his account, and his eyes showed contempt, "You think you count that green onion, and I still need you to give me face? Let go!"

The two disagreed, and they were about to fight, and someone beside them had already drawn their sword.The innkeeper was so anxious that his face was full of sweat, "Guests, gentlemen! Please do me a favor, small business, don't fight in the shop..."

But the two sides are at war, who will pay attention to an innkeeper?

Seeing this, the innkeeper felt as if he was mourning.But at this time, a clear voice that belonged only to young people suddenly sounded like a breeze blowing on the face.

"People who practice martial arts practice martial arts hard to eliminate the strong and help the weak, not to oppress the people at will, destroy other people's property, and go out to fight if you want to fight. You are not welcome here."

"Hehe, who is talking?!" The tall and thin young man hung his triangular eyes and glanced around displeasedly. He saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy standing in front of the crowd holding a sword. extraordinary.

He frowned, "Who are you?"

The young man was upright and upright, "Return to the Crane Sect, Wang Min."

"Hey, who am I? It turns out I'm the head of a small sect." Laughter came from behind the tall and thin young man, and Gui He sent out the youngest boy head in history. A great anecdote on the Internet.

As soon as this remark came out, people around couldn't help but look like Wang Min, but there was a lot of admiration in their eyes-not to mention martial arts, this young man has an extraordinary bearing, he is expected to be the head of the sect, it is rare to have a correct mind, but unfortunately, he was still impulsive point.

It's a pity, young people are ignorant, if he knows that the tall and thin young man in front of him is from the Tianhua sect, he wonders if he will stand out.

Sure enough, the tall and thin young man sneered, "Boy, get out of the way if you are sensible. I can fight wherever I want. Do you think I can't afford to pay for the tables and chairs?"

The bearded man paused and did not speak.

Wang Min frowned. He could also see that this tall and thin young man might have a lot of background, but it was really impossible for him to just watch him like this.Moreover, he didn't think that he was really much worse than him. After Lu Shuangxing passed him the thirteen Guihe poses, he had been studying hard for a year and a half. Even if he couldn't beat him, it wouldn't be a serious problem.

"The state owns the laws of the country, the family has its own rules, and the world has its own rules. If you want to fight, please fight outside."

"You don't want to toast and don't eat fine wine!" The tall and thin young man got angry and wanted to shoot.

Wang Min didn't answer, she reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword, ready to lead him outside immediately.

Fist wind hunting, no matter how bad the opponent is, he is still the master, so the tall and thin young man didn't move his sword, and planned to use his fist to teach him the principles of life.

However, just as his fist was about to bully Wang Min's body, and Wang Min drew his sword and was about to flee, a white figure suddenly appeared among them, with his white palm sticking out, he firmly pressed the young man's fist with his palm.

"Brother, please be calm."
