Dedicated every day to make Master go crazy

Chapter 74 Ancient Martial Arts 1.13

Dieyike's case soon made new progress.

Of course, it is said to be very fast, but in fact it has been a full three months.

Three months sounds like a long time, but when investigating a big case like "Die Yi Ke", the waiting time is really not too long.

For the past three months, Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou have been living in Shenquanmen.

The two are inseparable, very close, and never hide it in front of everyone.

After a long time, almost everyone knows that the two are a couple.

No matter what everyone thinks, at least on the bright side, Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou are the leader of the righteous way and the leader of the demon sect, with strong martial arts and great power, no one dares to say anything more.

The atmosphere was actually very harmonious.

In the past three months, apart from Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou, the Huanhua faction has not left, and they are still living in Shenquanmen.

So naturally, Su Shaomian didn't leave either.

The location of the clue this time is a bit special, it is in the Baihua Building in Suyang County.

Baihualou, as the name suggests, is a green |lou.

The women in the building are named after flowers, surrounded by fat, swallows and thin, with everything that one expects to find. It is the most famous brothel in the local area, and there are many guests every day.

The discovery of the clues this time is a bit special. It is not that there is another murdered woman, but Duan Xiaohe, one of the previous murdered women and the second victim, was found.

In Baihualou, after she killed a guest in the building.

Duan Xiaohe was the second victim. She was originally the only daughter of the master of a small sect in the martial arts.

Duan Xiaohe just turned [-] this year, because she learned some boxing from her father since she was a child, she was the only one among the six victims who resisted Dieyike.

There are rumors in the world that she may be the only one who knows what Dieyike looks like.

Perhaps it was for this reason that after the incident, Duan Xiaohe left home and disappeared, presumably because she was worried that Dieyike would come to kill her.

Many people were looking for her, but no one thought that Duan Xiaohe was hiding here.

Baihualou hid in a brothel in a small county town.

Everyone came to Baihua Building, and when they saw Duan Xiaohe, she was wearing lotus powder clothes and delicate makeup, sitting calmly on the mahogany chair in her room on the second floor.

Duan Xiaohe's slender hands were covered in blood, and a dagger was thrown at her feet.

"Where's the deceased?" Yuan Lingzi was dressed in purple and veiled, stood outside the door and took a look, then turned his head and asked, "Is there someone for an autopsy?"

The women of the Huanhua Sect are all female disciples, and a group of female disciples dressed in purple clothes appeared in a brothel like Baihualou. It has to be said that the picture is extremely strange.

Hua Niang and the guests who hadn't left all gathered in the hall on the first floor, looking at them from time to time, but no one dared to speak out.

Everyone's faces were full of panic.

They all knew that this time the matter was serious.

Not because of Dieyike, nor because of Duan Xiaohe, but because of the deceased.

"Someone has already done an autopsy, and it is said that a dagger was stabbed into the heart to death. There is only one wound all over the body, and it is very clean." The head catcher nodded and bowed back, and the head catcher who was over forty years old had a lot of vicissitudes. His face was full of gloom and gloom, "The people from Green Willow Villa have come a long time ago, and now they are guarding the dead body in the guest room on the second floor, saying that they must kill Duan Xiaohe to pay for their young owner's life."

"What do you think Duan Xiaohe is doing? It's not good to kill anyone, but Liu Husuo? Who in Suyang County doesn't know that the Green Willow Villa is the most powerful and powerful place? The owner of the Liu Villa is sixty years old, and he will have it all his life." Liu Husuo is such an only son. If Duan Xiaohe killed him, wouldn’t he be stabbing the sky?” The head catcher sighed, “What is wrong with Duan Xiaohe? I think she was engaged to Master Liu Shaozhuang back then, if it wasn’t because of Dieyi The matter of the guest has already passed through the door now, and it can be regarded as having a relationship, why should..."

"Wait a minute," the headhunter was still chattering, but Shen Lanzhou was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help interrupting him, "The young owner of the Green Willow Villa? Isn't that...?"

As Shen Lanzhou said, he raised his eyes and looked at You Buwei who also came with the crowd.

"...Master Liu Shaozhuang did make an engagement with Duan Xiaohe. After Duan Xiaohe's accident, the marriage was cancelled, so he came to Shenquanmen to propose marriage to the little girl." You Buwei looked a little embarrassed, "The two marriages It's been about half a year."

"That is to say..." Shen Lanzhou raised his eyebrows, "Master Liu's two fiancees were both victims of the Dieyike case? Such a coincidence?"

"If I remember correctly, the victim of the first case was the daughter of the magistrate of Nianci County, the county where Qingfeng Town is located not far from here?" Shen Lanzhou looked at You Buwei who was standing not far from him, " Couldn't she happen to be married to Master Liu, right?"

"That's not true." You Buwei said with some embarrassment, "Miss Wei's appointment is a son of another family, but the time is similar to Duan Xiaohe's engagement time, so it can be regarded as an engagement together."

"Miss Wei Jia and Duan Xiaohe are about the same age, and they had a very good relationship with handkerchiefs in their boudoir back then. Both of them are well-known beauties in all over the world, and they got engaged together back then, which was considered a sensational event. "Wu Zuo listened to the conversation between the two, and interjected, "The one who is engaged to Miss Wei is also a son of a well-known martial arts sect. At the beginning, these two marriages were envied by everyone."

"Who would have thought that later, alas..." Wu Zuo sighed.

"This way..." Shen Lanzhou's eyes flickered, and he looked up at Duan Xiaohe in the room.

The woman in pink was sitting on a mahogany chair in the room, staring fixedly at the blood-stained dagger at her feet, with her head lowered, not knowing what she was thinking.

In fact, Duan Xiaohe should be able to hear their conversation according to the distance they were standing at.

But from the beginning to the end, Duan Xiaohe did not raise his head, nor did he speak, nor did he intend to explain, nor did he intend to beg for mercy.

I was completely immersed in my own world.

According to the previous author, this room should be Duan Xiaohe's own boudoir in Baihualou. It is very beautifully furnished, with pink or bright red decorations everywhere, red silk soft beds, and a rich and sweet scent of incense in the room. Dao, it is really a gentle township that can make people soften their bones.

Shen Lanzhou glanced at Duan Xiaohe's appearance, the woman really had a soft and charming appearance as Wu Zuo said, with almond eyes and red lips, willow eyebrows and long eyelashes, with that exquisite makeup, it can make people look straight.

I heard that Duan Xiaohe loved to dress up as a chivalrous woman back then, and her family's Bagua boxing technique made her go smoothly.

Looking closely at this moment, one can still see from her eyebrows and eyes a little bit of heroism and sternness that is different from ordinary flower girls, but at this time it is mostly replaced by silence.

"Why did Duan Xiaohe appear in Baihualou?" Yuan Lingzi frowned and asked, "What's going on today?"

She was asking the mother in Baihualou.

The woman called "Mother Xu" wore a pink dress with revealing clothes and heavy makeup.

She looks very old this year, about to be almost forty, and she is really not flattered by such a dress.

"Xiaohe came here half a year ago. She came to find me by herself. She said that her family had undergone major changes and she had no one to rely on, so she wanted to come to my place for a meal. I think she looks okay, and she can play musical instruments. , Ms. Xu is also kind-hearted, so I let her stay." Ms. Xu sighed while shaking her handkerchief, "Who knew she would do such a thing! How can I open Baihualou from now on! What a bad luck, I knew I shouldn't have kindly kept her in the first place! It really didn't pay off for my kindness."

Xu's mother had a heartache on her face: "This dead girl."

"Good intentions? Sounds good, I think you are thinking that someone can make money for you, right?" A female disciple of Huanhua Sect couldn't understand Mother Xu's appearance, she frowned and said coldly, "It's just a matter of taking Duan Xiaohe in." It is to feed her and give her a house to live in, and the money they earn for you is far more than this."

The female disciple sneered and snorted.

Huanhua Sect is a decent sect, and the disciples in the sect are beautiful and arrogant, so naturally they look down on these brothels who rely on selling their flesh and blood for business.

The flower girls can also be said to be poor people who are forced to do nothing, but Xu's mother can only be said to be an unscrupulous shopkeeper who forces innocent women to sell themselves to make money for herself.

The female disciple naturally looked down on her.

In her eyes, Duan Xiaohe is undoubtedly a pitiful person. Not to mention the Dieyi guest on the eve of her marriage, in order not to be killed or hurt her family, she had to leave home alone and was forced to enter a brothel. It's so sad, it makes me want to cry.

Now that something like this happened to Duan Xiaohe, he still doesn't know why he was forced by Xu's mother when he was in Baihualou, so he killed someone.

Now Mother Xu has pushed all the responsibilities away. She doesn't care about Duan Xiaohe's life or safety at all, but only cares about whether Baihualou can make money in the future. Can the female disciple not be angry?

Not only her, but almost all the female disciples of Huanhua School looked at Mama Xu with angry and disdainful expressions.

A look of common hatred.

"Oh, you can't say that." Xu's mother said, "Mom, I also have a hard time. Look at the clothes on Xiaohe's body and the decorations in the house. Which one is not top-notch? They are all white. Money. This girl, Xiaohe, insists on only selling her art and not her body. A flower girl who does not sell her body will not be able to earn a lot of money in Baihualou. Don’t say that she made money for me in Baihualou. In these days, only people lose money.”

"Isn't it because my mother is kind-hearted and that's why I have been raising her?" Mother Xu said helplessly, "Who knew that Xiaohe would repay her kindness like this. Hey, the owner of Liu Shaozhuang just wanted to get close to her, how could she Just such a staunch temper? If you offend Green Willow Villa, how will you do business in the future?"

Xu's mother sighed from the side, lamenting that such a kind-hearted person could not get a good return, and none of the people present wanted to talk to her.

Yuan Lingzi glanced at Duan Xiaohe in the room.

The woman's hands were bloodied, and although the clothes on her body were still well-dressed, the collar was in a mess.

Combined with the disheveled appearance of Liu Husuo's corpse that he saw just now, although Mother Xu has been talking about him all the time, no one can understand what happened here just now.

Apparently it was Liu Hu who came to Baihualou to have fun, but somehow he bumped into Duan Xiaohe who was hiding there.

Liu Hu is lustful, he has coveted Duan Xiaohe's beauty for a long time, otherwise he would not have come to propose marriage and wanted to take Duan Xiaohe as a concubine.

Because of Dieyike, Liu Husuo didn't accept Duan Xiaohe, and the cooked duck that was about to arrive flew away, so he was naturally unhappy.

At this time, seeing Duan Xiaohe here, and seeing her dressed as a flower girl, it is self-evident what Liu Hu wants to do at that moment.

Perhaps in Liu Husuo's view, Duan Xiaohe, who has been insulted by Dieyike, is now living in a brothel, and Duan Xiaohe can only accept her if he wants to be intimate with her.

She never expected that Duan Xiaohe is really strong-tempered, she refused to receive guests in the building for half a year, how could he make an exception because of him?

In this way, some entanglements inevitably occurred between the two, maybe Liu Husuo said some nasty things, Duan Xiaohe was furious and struggled, and then killed him with a dagger in order to protect himself.

It's never easy to judge this kind of thing.

But because of Liu Husuo's identity, Duan Xiaohe's fate can be imagined.

The power of the Green Willow Villa is overwhelming, Liu Hu is the young owner of the Green Willow Villa, the only son of the owner, could it be that his death was for nothing?

Don't say that this matter was caused by Duan Xiaohe, even if it has nothing to do with Duan Xiaohe, if the Green Willow Villa wants Duan Xiaohe to pay for his life, Duan Xiaohe can only die.

Everyone stood at the door of Duan Xiaohe's room, and they could still hear people from the Green Willow Villa yelling loudly in the room not far away.

Except for some obscenities, they were all clamoring that Duan Xiaohe must pay for his life.

The disciples of the Huanhua Sect couldn't bear to hear it, and some couldn't help yelling loudly at the people in the Green Willow Villa to shut up.

Duan Xiaohe had a calm expression all the time.

The woman seemed to have completely resigned herself to her fate. After sitting on the chair for a long time, she slowly stood up, came to the side of the head catcher, stretched out her hand and said, "I killed the man, take me away!" If you want to kill or cut, it's up to the Green Willow Villa."

She spoke indifferently, and although her eyes were open, they were still lifeless, obviously she had lost all hope of life.

Yuan Lingzi looked at her and sighed, before Duan Xiaohe was arrested, handcuffed and taken away, he sighed and said: "Everyone in the rivers and lakes has rumored that Miss Duan saw Dieyike's face, but is it true? If you really saw one or two, please tell me... It can be regarded as revenge for yourself and other victimized sisters, and it can also prevent more innocent women from being victimized."

Duan Xiaohe was silent for a long while, and finally said softly: "I saw... Dieyike had a dark red birthmark behind his left ear, which was shaped like half a Taiji diagram."

"So, don't worry, girl, we Huanhua Sect will do everything we can, and we will definitely catch Dieyike and avenge you!" Yuan Lingzi said.

"Thank you." Duan Xiaohe smiled.

She seemed to finally let go of the stone that had been pressing on her heart for a long time, and finally laughed.

The appearance of the beauty when she smiled is indeed the appearance of a city.

"Thank you, Senior Yuan Lingzi." Duan Xiaohe said.

After the dead air between her eyebrows and eyes disappeared, she finally vaguely was that famous female knight in the past.

Duan Xiaohe was arrested and led away, but when he left, he held his head high and held his chest high, he must have finally settled his mind.

Everyone was silent, and they all consciously gave way.

After Shen Lanzhou glanced at Duan Xiaohe, his eyes flickered.

Shen Lanzhou suddenly stepped forward and stopped Duan Xiaohe who was about to leave.

Duan Xiaohe was taken aback, then raised his eyes to look at Shen Lanzhou.

"Please wait a moment." Shen Lanzhou held a folding fan in his hand, turned his head and said to Butou.

The headhunter would naturally not reject Shen Lanzhou, so he stopped.

Shen Lanzhou thanked the catcher, and then turned to look at Duan Xiaohe.

He looked at Duan Xiaohe for a while, then smiled suddenly, approached her slowly, stretched out his hand and tapped Duan Xiaohe's collar with a folding fan, and said with a smile: "The girl forgot to straighten her clothes."

He said this softly, and his eyes were full of flirtatious smiles when he looked at Duan Xiaohe.

Everyone present knew the relationship between Shen Lanzhou and Ye Cheng, and they couldn't help but look up at Ye Cheng.

To their surprise, although Ye Cheng's expression was not good at this time, it was not too bad.

The man in white just looked at Shen Lanzhou's hand straightening Duan Xiaohe's collar with a sullen face, but a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes.

Duan Xiaohe froze for a moment, but then seemed to think of something, froze all over, and hurriedly stretched out his hands to straighten his collar: "...Thank you."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly followed the head hunter, as if he was worried about what Shen Lanzhou would find out.

After Duan Xiaohe was taken away, everyone naturally dispersed.

The people from the Yamen went to appease the people from the Green Willow Villa, and You Buwei and the disciples of the Huanhua Sect went to investigate Dieyike based on the information they had just obtained.

Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou did not leave.

Only the two of them remained.

After this kind of thing happened, the other flower girls and guests naturally didn't dare to stay on the second floor anymore, instead of leaving early, they also hid on the first floor.

Only Ye Cheng and Shen Lanzhou were left on the second floor.

Shen Lanzhou walked into Duan Xiaolou's room, walked to the dressing table and sat down.

He reached out to open the makeup box in front of the dressing table and took out the rouge and powder inside.

"Sure enough," Shen Lanzhou twisted these rouge powders, and said, "These rouge powders are basically new, and they don't look like they have been used for a long time."

"Duan Xiaohe hasn't lived here at all for the past six months." Shen Lanzhou narrowed his eyes, "When we met just now, I didn't smell the fragrance of incense in this room from Duan Xiaohe, I felt strange. The incense in this room The smell is so heavy, if Duan Xiaohe lives here for a long time, it is impossible not to be infected with this smell."

"Of course the most important thing is," Shen Lanzhou said, "I just saw Shou Gongsha under her collarbone."

"I saw local heterosexuals. Because local men and women are not serious about defense, some local families are worried that their daughters will be cheated outside, and they will plant Shougong sand under the collarbone when they are young." Shen Lanzhou said, "Seeing Shougong sand in ordinary women Gong Sha is not surprised, but seeing Duan Xiaohe... something is wrong."

"Either way, she's not Duan Xiaohe; or...the Dieyike case was a complete scam from the very beginning."

"Lanzhou just reminded Duan Xiaohe to tidy up his collar before leaving, is it because of this?" Ye Cheng looked at Shen Lanzhou and said.

"Before the matter is clarified, if someone notices it, not to mention other people, the people in Luliu Villa alone will not be able to spare Duan Xiaohe." Shen Lanzhou said.

"You Buwei and the gate of the Yamen obviously knew Duan Xiaohe. They didn't show any strange expressions when they saw her. It can be seen that if it wasn't for the fact that she was born exactly like Duan Xiaohe, someone might have faked her. Since Duan Xiaohe is an only daughter, There should be no other sisters in the family, and it is unlikely that anyone will fake this one." Shen Lanzhou tapped the mahogany makeup box lightly with his slender fingers, and thought, "Then the only thing left is..."

"The Dieyike case is indeed problematic." Ye Cheng answered.

"Yes, this can also explain that when we clearly caught Dieyike and sent him to the Nianci County Yamen, Dieyike was able to run away without a trace. Originally, the daughter of the magistrate of Nianci County was also the victim. Or, even if the county magistrate of Nianci County personally guards him, Dieyike should not be allowed to escape. At this time, the case here is so uproarious that no one in Nianci County has come here for three months. This in itself is It's not normal, it's just that we didn't think of it before."

"Brother Ye, I don't think we need to investigate this case any further." Shen Lanzhou said.

Ye Cheng didn't answer, but just looked at Shen Lanzhou and motioned him to continue.

"Chastity is so precious to a woman. These women would rather ruin their own reputations than create a false case of Dieyike..." Shen Lanzhou's eyes flashed, and he looked up at Ye Cheng, "I'm afraid there is something, The reason why they really had to do this. For example..."

"The forced marriage of Green Willow Villa, and... the forced marriage of other martial arts sects that they can't resist." Ye Cheng's eyes also sank, and he continued.

Shen Lanzhou smiled and spread his hands, indicating that he didn't say anything.
