"How could it be?! Could it be that the corpse in the Sky Tower did not belong to Young Master Bai?" Bao Zheng instinctively fell into deep thought.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce are over [-] years old, and because of long-term hard work, neither of them has a family.Therefore, after the cheerful, lovable, and extremely intelligent little Zhan Zhao came to Kaifeng, the two elders devoted all their fatherly love to Zhan Zhao, and treated and tolerated little Zhan Zhao as their own child. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they grew up watching Zhan Zhao.

As Zhan Zhao's most speculative best friend, Bai Yutang has an even closer relationship with Kaifeng Mansion. Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce almost regard Bai Yutang as their rebellious second son. The hall has been hung with white gauze for two years.

And now, now that they have finally calmed down a little from the pain in their hearts, they accidentally discovered that Bai Yutang was not dead during the Hexi strange case? !

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were shocked and ecstatic for a while, sad and puzzled for a while, and the emotions that had been accumulated in their hearts for several years and did not dare to uncover them suddenly rushed to their hearts, making the two famous and wise people in the Song Dynasty stunned in place.

But now is not the time to let your emotions take over your head.

Mo Qi's voice pierced through the internal force, interrupting the astonishment of Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng: "Mr. Gongsun!"

Master Mei in his arms closed his eyes tightly and his face was pale.Master Mei's throat was slit open with a sharp knife, and his abdomen swelled high. The blood had already soaked through his clothes, and stained Mo Qi's newly changed bamboo green Taoist robe with blood.

Mo Qi hastily laid Master Mei's body flat, put his hands under the back of Master Mei's head, stretched out his fingers to check Master Mei's breath, it was barely audible.

"Master Mei!" Gongsun Ce regained his composure, gasped immediately, and ran out of the hall, "Where's my silver needle!"

Bao Zheng also hurried out all the way, and stopped beside Master Mei, with a grim expression on his face: "Can you still save him?"

This is what Bao Zheng asked, but in fact, he no longer had any expectations in his heart.

Gongsun Ce still wanted silver needles because Master Mei still had breath, and the doctor was benevolent, so he wanted to do his best.But everyone knew that with such an injury, it was impossible for Master Mei to survive.

Gongsun Ce did not speak.

But Mo Qi said: "Yes. But be quick."

Bao Zheng's heart sank because of Gongsun Ce's silence, and he jumped suddenly: "Please help the Taoist priest!"

Mo Qi didn't delay any longer, and immediately took down the finger-sized wine jar from his waist with one hand, shook out his silver needle bag with the other hand, grabbed it and threw it to Gongsun Ce, and said briefly and forcefully: "Master Jiu, seal the acupuncture point. Mr. Gongsun , and take out the contents of his stomach."

Gong Jiu is not a person who loves to talk nonsense, before Mo Qi finished speaking, Gong Jiu has already made a move, with five fingers twisted like an orchid flower, like a butterfly fluttering in the wind, he quickly touches the acupoints all over Master Mei's body.

It is the orchid finger that has been famous for a long time in the world, but has also been lost for a long time.

Such peerless martial arts, used to seal acupuncture points, the effect is naturally excellent.

Master Mei's blood was forced to be sealed immediately, and he did not continue to spew crazily.

Seeing this, Gongsun Ce immediately pricked the silver needle without any hesitation, supplemented by sealing the acupoint to stop the bleeding and smoothing the Qi to relieve the pain, it was rightly used as anesthesia.

After Mo Qi washed his hands with wine, he pointed his fingers like a knife, his internal energy could be sent and received freely, and he pointed to the wind like a blade, and cut open again according to the rough stitched knife marks on Master Mei's belly, and took out the dead dog inside .He also found the jade unicorn powder from his waist, and asked Bao Zheng to fetch the silver knife that Mr. Gongsun usually used. He burned the knife with wine, and started work with Gongsun Ce at the same time, and began to deal with Master Mei's ruptured organs.

On a winter day in Hexi, the unsheltered courtyard was so cold that the water would condense into ice, but Gongsun Ce was sweating profusely.

This was the first time he had used a knife to disembowel a living person, so he couldn't help being nervous.

After Bao Zheng took the things, there was nothing else he could do. He felt that he was in the way, until he saw that Gongsun Ce's sweat was almost dripping into his eyes that he dared not blink, so he took out his handkerchief and wiped Gongsun Ce's sweat.

Just like this, Gongsun Ce still disliked him: "Bao Heizi! You blocked me!"

Prime Minister Bao, who is majestic, dignified, and selfless, was yelled at by the master in public, but he didn't dare to say a word, and he withdrew his hand and honestly used it as his stake, looking rather aggrieved.

Bao Zheng glanced into the hall.Yelu Ruyu was still sitting firmly inside, as if she knew she was not welcome, and she didn't intend to get up to join in the fun in the courtyard.Yelu Ruyu was holding tea leisurely, watching from a distance while sipping, and after meeting Bao Zheng's eyes, he raised his teacup and shook Bao Zheng, showing a probably friendly smile.

It is a good thing that Yelu Ruyu can sit honestly in the hall and not come to make trouble.Thinking this way, Bao Zheng turned his attention back to Gongsun Ce and Mo Qi's life-and-death struggle with the king of hell.

After the internal injury was treated, it was suturing, which could be done by only one person, and two people would just add to the chaos.Mo Qi withdrew his hand and gave up the position to Gongsun Ce, while he concentrated on nurturing Master Mei's inner strength, in case the other party couldn't survive the toss.

After Gongsun Ce finished suturing the wound on Master Mei's abdomen, Mo Qi took out the rightmost wine jar from the remaining three finger-sized wine jars around his waist, pulled off the cork, and was about to go to Master Mei. Mouth feed.

Gongsun Ce wanted to see if Master Mei's lower body was also stabbed by the murderer, and when he raised his head to wipe off his sweat, he saw Mo Qi feeding wine into Master Mei's mouth, and he almost jumped up in shock.

He subconsciously reached out and patted Mo Qi's hand: "Master Daoist! What are you doing!?"

With Master Mei's stomach so broken, what kind of wine are you feeding him? !

Gong Jiu's eyes were sharp, and he took a folding fan and stopped Gongsun Ce's hand halfway: "This is a good thing to extend life. If it is not a Taoist priest, ordinary people will not be able to ask for ten thousand gold. If you smash it, it will be a while. I don’t know where to find another altar.”

Mo Qi had already poured the wine down the bloodless Master Mei, and flicked his hand with concentrated inner strength along Master Mei's throat to help the wine get into his throat.After the wine slipped down Adam's apple, Mo Qi used his internal force to disperse the wine into alcohol gas, slowly guiding the medicinal power to disperse into the internal organs.

Almost immediately, a bit of blood appeared on Master Mei's pale face, the pained expression on his face gradually disappeared, and a bit of drunkenness emerged.The chest, which had hardly any breathing ups and downs, immediately rose and fell a few times, as if a drowning person had just been fished out of the water, and he spit out a few mouthfuls of blood with a wow before regaining his composure.

... What the hell is this wine? !

Gongsun Ce widened his eyes in shock.He watched Master Mei's complexion recover a lot at a speed visible to the naked eye, he couldn't believe it, the hair on the back of his head stood on end in shock.

Unbelievingly, he reached out his hand to feel Master Mei's pulse, and found that Mei Qu's pulse, which had been weak and slow to almost none, had gradually picked up.

The silver needle bag in Gongsun Ce's hand almost fell off, if it wasn't for Mo Qi who was still exercising to help Master Mei heal his wounds, he could not wait to jump up and grab Mo Qi by the collar and shake it vigorously: "What the hell is this wine? !"

It seems that the amount of alcohol that Daoist Mo gave him to cure the carriage sickness is about the same!

... Could it be that Taoist Mo gave him this kind of wine when he vomited uncontrollably before? !

For a moment, Gongsun Ce suddenly resonated with the mood of Chu Liuxiang, Hu Tiehua, Zhao Zhen... at a certain moment.

Bao Zheng has nothing to do at the side all the time, so he can see the changes of Master Mei most clearly.When Master Mei vomited blood, he subconsciously took a quick step, covering Mei Ji's figure, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Yelu Ruyu sitting in the hall.

Such a shocking life-sustaining magic medicine, it's okay to be seen by one's own people, they should keep their mouths shut.But if the Seventh Prince of Liao Kingdom sees it, then there is no telling what trouble will happen.

Fortunately, Yelu Ruyu, who was guarded by Bao Zheng, was holding his chin, playing with the folding fan in his hand with a bored face, and didn't intend to look over.

Gongsun Ce's eyes of seeking knowledge were so hot that Mo Qi felt a hole in his cheek was stared at by Gongsun Ce's gaze.

But Mo Qi really didn't care so much about keeping it secret, otherwise he wouldn't have sold the wine back then.

After Mo Qi got rid of the last bruise on Mei Qu's body, he was distracted and said to Gongsun Ce: "No. What you drank with Mr. Gongsun earlier was a pot of summer. This is a pot of spring." He said bluntly as if not aware of it, "A pot of spring has the effect of anesthesia and prolonging life, and can prolong life for half a month. If you take this wine when you are seriously injured, the injury will heal or improve within half a month, and you can be out of life Danger."

Gongsun Ce gasped for breath and suffocated for a while, then reached out and grabbed Mo Qi's shoulder, lowering his voice: "You mean - isn't that - as long as you keep drinking this wine, you can live forever?"

Mo Qi glanced at Gongsun Ce, as if he didn't know why Gongsun Ce was so excited, and said flatly: "Of course not, this wine cannot be continued."

It is equivalent to saying that as long as you drink a pot of spring once, the next time you drink it, it will not have the same life extension effect.

But that's amazing enough.

Bao Zheng also lowered his voice: "The wine that Daoist bought in Jiangshanzui—"

Mo Qi: "It's only valid for one day."

Bao Zheng was still worried: "But if someone discovers this pot of spring effect, they will naturally suspect that the brewers will have better wine hidden. If they send someone to snatch it—"

Mo Qi looked at Bao Zheng silently.

Bao Zheng realized something was wrong halfway through his speech, and silently stopped talking.

He was thinking about it.

Think carefully too.

Who dares to rob Jianghu No. [-]?

Crazy, or not living enough?I'm afraid I have to drink all the wine I snatched on the spot, otherwise I won't be able to climb out of the country alive and drunk.

Bao Zheng glanced at Gong Jiu, who was sneering and shaking his fan, and felt that even if someone could climb out alive, Gong Jiu would help him make up another knife, nailed the lid of his coffin to death, threw the fire and burned it clean .

Just when everyone suddenly fell into a weird silence, Zhan Zhao came back dejectedly, with two dark circles on his beautiful amber eyes.

Gongsun Ce is a benevolent doctor, even though he saw the two dark circles on his baby's face, he still methodically called someone, brought the bracket, and watched with his own eyes as the servant carried Master Mei back to the house without pretending to be done by others. After it was settled properly, he turned out of the room and pulled Zhan Zhao over to have a closer look.

Gongsun Ce looked at his baby who had been beaten into a panda's eyes, and asked distressedly, "What's the matter with your eyes? That was really Bai Yutang just now?"

Young life!Zhan Zhao is so likable, who is this hateful, who can do anything to Zhan Zhao?

Even if you hit someone, you still hit your face and your eyes!

Zhan Zhao burst into tears, most likely because he was hit on the lacrimal gland.He burst into tears and said, "It's true! I'm sure I won't admit it."

"But I don't know why, he doesn't remember me at all, and his personality is completely different from before, as soon as he saw me catching up, he punched me like crazy!" Zhan Zhao wiped away his tears. Stop, but the more you wipe, the more tears flow, it becomes a tear bag that drips when you touch it, and the appearance of rubbing your eyes with your hands looks quite aggrieved, "Look, you beat me!"

Gongsun Ce opened Zhan Zhao's hand that was rubbing his eyes: "Tears are flowing like this, and you still rub your eyes, do you want to cry blind?" He lightly held Zhan Zhao's eyelids and looked, "It's all right. .Don't touch your eyes all the time. I'll get you a medicine pack later, and the tears will stop."

Gongsun Ce smiled while watching: "It's been so many years, it's very rare to see our hero Zhan Xiong Feizhan cry, today I'll show us a few years."

Zhan Zhao: "..."

Gongsun Ce: "But if that is really Young Hero Bai, why would he beat you?"

Who in Kaifeng doesn't know that Shaoxia Zhan Zhao and Chinchilla Bai Yutang are good brothers who have worshiped iron handles, and their relationship is so good that they can wear a pair of trousers.If the man in white was really Bai Yutang, why would he attack Zhan Zhao?

"I don't know either." Zhan Zhao was so depressed that he couldn't figure out what was going on, and he didn't dare to fight back, for fear that he might accidentally break up this beautiful dream.When Bai Yutang went crazy, he could only dodge it, how dare he fight back?

To put it more cheekily!Zhan Zhao really felt that if he could get back by beating Bai Yutang a few times, then it wouldn't matter if he was beaten for the rest of his life!Anyway, he has thick skin!

Moreover, during the sparring, he could clearly feel that Yutang's internal strength was now several times stronger than in the past, and if he really wanted to kill him, it would be just a matter of effort to take his life.But Bai Yutang never made a deadly move. When the fist landed on him, it could reach the sky with at most [-] to [-] percent of its force, and the point of the fist completely avoided his vital points.

Think about what Daoist Mo and Gong Jiu said earlier, when Yutang went crazy, he could beat all the shadow people with him to the point of severe injury and vomit blood, but what about when he was fighting Zhan Zhao?After a seemingly fierce fight, if you count carefully, the wounds Bai Yutang left on him are the dark circles on his face, and the places on his body that were hit by fists and palms, there is not even a trace of it Leave.

This kind of fist palm with thunderous noise and little rain is simply playing with him!

Zhan Zhao deeply felt that Yutang had shown mercy to his subordinates, so that while he was being beaten, his heart was still dripping with sweetness.

The more irritable and disgusted Bai Yutang looked, the more Zhan Zhao felt happy compared to the moves he had used one to two percent of his strength, and it would be even more difficult to fight back!

...But this is a small thought that is unclear, and the thin-skinned Nan Xia Zhan Shaoxia is absolutely embarrassed to tell anyone.

"Nearly knocked my eyes out!" Zhan Zhao said miserably on purpose, and aggrieved Mr. Gongsun to cover his eyes, "Fortunately, I was able to bear the beating, but I lost it in the end..."

But even so, the corners of Zhan Zhao's mouth couldn't help but hook upwards: "It's really Yutang, he's not dead!"

"It's hard to say." Gong Jiu thoughtfully shook the fan in his hand.

·

·

Everyone left Yelu Ruyu alone in the hall without any politeness, and gathered in the study room to listen to Gong Jiu explain the Yumenguan case in detail.

In the rush, Bao Zheng hadn't had time to hear about the shadow man who came back from the dead.After Gong Jiu finished speaking, Bao Zheng's face changed greatly: "There are so many shadow people?"

"..." Gong Jiu paused, suspecting that Bao Zheng hadn't listened carefully to what he said, "The only one who can be considered a master is Xue Xiaoren. The rest are Huo Xiu, Taoist Mu, and those who can't even call their names. An unknown soldier who came out? Heh, he can't even resist a little poison, and he will be gone after eating a poison soup, so it's not a disaster."

Bao Zheng: "..."

When will you be considered a master if you can't die after eating poisonous soup... Is your Jianghu people's standards for masters too strict?

Zhan Zhao became anxious: "Then what do you mean, those who come to look for Tuguo are shadow people? Yutang is also shadow people?"

Mo Qi slowed down his tone: "It should be true that the person who came to find Tuguo was the shadow man. However, looking at the little alien adopted by Li Hu earlier, and the situation of Master Mei, it seems that Shaoxia Bai should have some sense of right and wrong, and not He didn't join forces with them." Mo Qi explained with Zhan Zhao, who had a depressed face, "His past memories are controlled by drugs and cannot be restored, so he doesn't know you."

Zhan Zhao hurriedly asked: "Then you said earlier, how did Xue Xiaoren's memory be awakened?"

Mo Qi: "The limbs were cut off by me, it should be overlapped with the memory before his 'death', the mind was hit hard, and I just regained my consciousness."

Zhan Zhao was silent.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were also silent.

How Bai Yutang died, they still remember clearly, but it was a few years ago.

In order to obtain evidence of King Xiangyang's rebellion, he ran into the sky tower three times and was killed by thousands of arrows in the copper net formation. Even if this method of death could really wake up Bai Yutang's memory, no one could do it again The past repeats itself.

"This... I think, since Young Master Bai didn't join forces with others after he was rescued by the shadow man, let alone being driven by others, then the previous memory will be gone if it is gone?" Gongsun Ce tentatively said, "It will be regarded as a new life. Not bad."

Zhan Zhao's expression was a bit sad.

He thought of the first time he met Bai Yutang, the gorgeous young man dressed in white as snow, who was happy with his hatred, the arrogant and dignified face riding on the jade white horse, and the skyrocketing tower. The bloody body pierced by thousands of arrows...

"...But I think the bloodshot on Young Master Bai's face, and the pink eye disease still need to be treated." Gongsun Ce changed the subject and said seriously.

Zhan Zhao's originally gloomy and sad mood was diluted a little by Gongsun Ce's witty words.He chuckled, looked up and saw the caring eyes from Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng, and his heart warmed.

He was not a negative person at all, so he quickly cleared up his mood, cheered up, and jumped up from his seat: "That's right, this is not the Yutang I know, I don't want to be disfigured like this."

Shaoxia Zhan is gearing up: "Master Dao, we have to quickly get Yutang out of the hands of those shadow people, who knows what they feed Yutang every day, what clothes they wear, and whether they bully Yutang? , His clothes are all dirty!"

Mo Qi: "..."

That's because he saved Master Mei from getting blood.

According to what the little stranger from Li Hu's family said before, Bai Yutang would beat up the shadow people violently when he was angry, and turn around and leave after beating up, those shadow people who were seriously injured by him had to follow... After all Who is bullying whom.

"Have you ever talked to him?" Gong Jiu asked suddenly, "If Bai Yutang really kept his sense of right and wrong, and offered to help him many times, I'm afraid the shadow man won't be able to tolerate his behavior for long. He should also feel it, so say no. Will it tell you where the Shadow Man is?"

Gong Jiu analyzed in a logical manner: "The previous time, Bai Yutang intervened, leaving behind the hidden danger of that little stranger in Li Hu's family, exposing the existence of the shadow man. And then this time, Master Mei...I'm afraid Master Mei is I discovered the hiding place of the shadow man, that's why I was killed by the shadow man."

Mo Qi nodded in agreement: "Looking at Master Mei's situation, it should be that the shadow man wanted to imitate Tao Zhifu's death, and wanted to plant Master Mei's death on the murderer who killed Tao Zhifu, but he was unexpectedly intervened by Bai Shaoxia. It also revealed that it was actually their hands."

Even if Bai Yutang is their leader, but how long can the shadow man endure this repeated sabotage of the plan?

Zhan Zhao shook his head blankly: "No...he didn't say a word to me..." He suddenly slapped his head, "I remembered! Although he didn't say anything, but before I chased him out, he gave me instructions The stones on the ground!"

Zhan Zhao hurriedly took out the stones from his arms: "I didn't understand at the time... Yutang got angry after pointing at it for a while, and even picked up the stones and threw them at me, so I brought them back."

"..." Daoist Mo had a complex expression on his face.

When others throw stones at you, not only do you not throw them back, but you take back the stones that others threw at you like a treasure.

Mo Qi didn't know how to feel.

"Is there anything special about this pebble?" Bao Zheng looked at the pebble that Gongsun Ce took over, a little confused, "It doesn't look any different from ordinary sand and pebbles?"

Gongsun Ce's brows were tightly furrowed, but he didn't see any tricks.

Everyone was looking at a pile of stones, Gong Jiu said again: "Just now, did you mean that Bai Yutang never talked to you from the beginning to the end, but only pointed out stones to you? Seeing that you didn't understand, I was so angry A stone hit you?"

"Ah, right?" Zhan Zhao raised his head and scratched his head, "I must be too stupid to make Yutang angry."

Zhan Zhao smiled, and actually had a sweet dimple.

"..." Gong Jiu decided to pretend that he didn't hear Zhan Zhao's last sentence, "I mean, did he say anything from the beginning to the end?"

Zhan Zhao's dimples slowly disappeared: "...is it?"

Gong Jiu: "Have you ever thought that the reason why he didn't speak is because he can't speak?"

Gong Jiu looked at Zhan Zhao's face that suddenly turned pale, and continued to finish his sentence coldly: "For example, Bai Yutang, is he dumb?"

"No... no way, this, no..." Zhan Zhao shook his head subconsciously.

He instinctively resisted the possibility.

Gong Jiu: "There is also a big change in temperament... The medicine used by the shadow man should only be used to control memory, but it will not have the effect of changing personality. Bai Yutang has become so irritable, there may be other reasons... Anyway, no what a good reason."

In fact, Zhan Zhao doesn't necessarily have to be reminded by Gong Jiu to discover these abnormalities.It's just that he was unwilling and resisted in every possible way, and he didn't want to put this extremely possible guess on Bai Yutang.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce's expressions turned serious again.

At this moment.

"Report!"

Bao Zheng restrained his expression, turned back his solemn expression, looked at Vice General He who was wearing armor at the door and had a very bad face, and had an ominous premonition in his heart: "Come in, tell me."

Vice General He's voice was suppressed very low.

"—General Mu, dead."

·

·

Master Mei was killed, General Mu was killed, and Bai Yutang was resurrected.

These three things came together at the same time, and Bao Zheng, who felt that he was well-managed before the departure, suddenly felt stretched for a long time.

Fortunately, Master Mei was rescued.Gongsun Ce checked it out, probably because Bai Yutang shot in time, Master Mei's injuries were only concentrated above the abdomen, and the lower body was still intact.After helping Mr. Mei to sew up the gash in his abdomen, he removed the sutures on Mr. Mei's chest. After all the medicines were applied, everyone left Mr. Mei's bedroom.

"Zhan Zhao, you should go to the location of the stone that Shaoxia Bai pointed out to you, and see if he is referring to other clues?" After Deputy General Ling He immediately sent General Mu's body to the government office, Bao Zheng turned to the side. Zhan Zhao, who can't sit still, said.

At this time, keeping Zhan Zhao by his side and continuing to follow up on the case might not have much effect.It would be better to let him go out and continue searching for Bai Yutang. If Bai Yutang really wanted to hint at Zhan Zhao, Zhan Zhao could find him, and maybe he could find out where the shadow man is hiding in Hexi now.

Zhan Zhao almost jumped up from his chair in a hurry, lifted his legs and ran away.

Lang's heart was like an arrow, as if he was afraid that if he was too late, Bai Yutang would be bullied by the shadow people.

Gongsun Ce came out of Master Mei's study, with a worried expression on his face: "I searched around, but I still couldn't find the clue that he could find and go out in a hurry after he found out. Neatly." He shook his head regretfully, "It's a pity that Master Mei is still unable to wake up, otherwise you can directly ask him what he found and where he found those shadow people."

Mo Qi pondered: "The shadow people didn't leave Hexi, but they didn't take the initiative to continue killing people. Either they have found a way to cook soil fruits, or they have found a way to breed soil fruits. But no matter what they find, There must be some reason why they couldn't leave Hexi immediately, so they had to stay and were found by Master Mei."

"The tuguo man also said earlier that the tuguo will wither away from the former residence... Maybe it is because the breeding of the tuguo cannot be separated from certain conditions in Hexi." Gong Jiu's eyes were changed in Mo Qi's new one, which was still purchased by him. Bao Zheng and the others could almost tell that he was in a happy mood, and his voice was not as cold as before.

Gongsun Ce was so shocked by Gong Jiu's unusual appearance that his whole body went numb, he couldn't help but distracted for a while, and sighed in his heart: This is the power of the first love.

Gong Jiu suddenly sneezed.

Vice-General He quickly led people and brought General Mu's body back in a hurry.When I came, I brought a new piece of bad news: "The flower will be gone."

"What?! When did it happen?" Gongsun Ce asked in astonishment.

Vice-General He confessed: "It should have been when General Mu died. He disappeared. The last time someone saw him, he was seen helping General Mu get out of the camp to pour the washing water... But when General Mu's body was found, there was a great chaos in the army. , I failed to notice it for a while, and I will be negligent in the end."

Bao Zheng appeased Vice General He and told him to go back and put down the chaotic Hexi Army as soon as possible. After Vice General He left, he asked rather puzzled, "Why did General Mu die?"

He slowly thought through his thoughts: "Previously Tao Zhifu's death, we thought it might be done by someone who was humiliated by him. Maybe it was a young man, maybe a soldier, or something else... But General Mu never treated the soldiers. We have done it, why did he die?"

Bao Zheng felt that this didn't make sense: "Or, this just shows that the murderer is not a member of the army? But if the murderer is not a member of the army, how did he enter and leave the barracks as if he had nothing? Or... it was the time of the previous inquiry. , Some soldiers lied and concealed the truth? But if so, why did the flower general disappear?"

Gongsun Ce followed Bao Zheng's train of thought: "In this way, I think it is more likely that some soldiers lied. The general Hua disappeared, perhaps because he sheltered General Mu and became an accomplice of General Mu, so he was caught by the murderer. let's go."

"After we went to deal with the sacrificial rebellion, has Deputy General Shi ever been interrogated?" Mo Qi suddenly asked, "The three people that Master Mei said, Tao Zhifu, General Mu, and Deputy General Shi, have now died. The insider is Deputy General Shi, and he is very likely to be the murderer's next target."

"Yes, maybe the murderer is already on his way to kill him now."

Outside the study, someone said leisurely through the window.

The people outside the window politely took the folding fan and closed the window sill.

After Mo Qi pushed open the window, Yelu Ruyu sized up Mo Qi's new Taoist robe, and began to praise him like a torrent of water: "The ancients said, 'Beyond the dust, stand alone, transcendent and peerless, above all The gods wandering in the holy place', I finally saw it today. The Taoist priest put on new clothes, and his demeanor is really more handsome and noble, and he is more immortal."

Before Mo Qi could say anything, Gong Jiu snorted coldly: "I prepared this for him."

"..." Everyone in the room shrank their necks, and were as quiet as chickens, anticipating that a war without gunpowder smoke was about to break out.

Yelu Ruyu didn't even look at Gong Jiu, as if she didn't hear anything, she still stared at Mo Qi, with a sincere praise on her face: "...but the Daoist Priest was originally born in Xuan Ranxia, The appearance of a fairy is as natural as it is, even without these beautiful and complicated decorations, it is still handsome and extraordinary."

"Oh? Really?" Gong Jiu's tone became more and more dangerous.

A verbal confrontation was immediately like a fluffy grass on fire, burning more and more intensely.

Anyway, Gong Jiu and Yelu Ruyu were not really in a hurry to solve the case. The two cold-hearted people would rather compete in areas they were interested in, such as the Taoist priest's clothes.

Mo Qi, who couldn't get in the conversation at all, raised his hand a few times: "..."

He hesitated to speak for a while, and suddenly realized that the two people in front of him, who were also wearing white clothes, holding folding fans, and the same tongue with lotus flowers, were confronting each other. Once again, he was reminded of two short-legged cats scratching each other, trying desperately to scratch each other. The appearance of walking the opponent's air and making the opponent shut up is surprisingly similar.

... Mo Qi realized that he thought this picture was quite cute, even full of wit and humor, and fell silent strangely, his brows were furrowed unconsciously, and he began to conduct severe self-reflection on himself.

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce: "..."

Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce looked at Gong Jiu, Yelu Ruyu and Mo Qi, and couldn't help feeling weird.

The two of them thought at the same time: At first, they didn't quite understand what it meant that the Seventh Prince of Liao had come to Song Dynasty and followed them around every day.

Now that I think about it carefully, it turned out that they were self-indulgent, and the person the Seventh Prince followed was not them at all, but Daoist Mo!

Yelu Ruyu: "Ah Choo!"

Mo Qi couldn't hold back the itchy nose for a moment: "...sneeze."

Wise as Bao Zheng, he did not speak out to persuade the fight, but cleared his throat, deliberately amplified his voice, and said directly to Mo Qi: "Master Dao, General Mu's corpse, Wu Zuo has experienced it, and it is indeed the same as Tao Zhifu's." The situation. It’s getting late now, why don’t we go out of the mansion now to interrogate Deputy General Shi?”

Mo Qi's introspection was interrupted by Bao Zheng: "...um."

Bao Zheng didn't care about the two people who were still arguing by the window, and went out with Gongsun Ce and Mo Qi Shi Shiran.Halfway along the road, I saw Yelu Ruyu and Gong Jiu sneering, and followed without looking at each other. There was a distance of ten meters between each other, just like two quarrelsome five-year-old children.

Mo Qi: "..."

Mo Daochang once again fell into reflection with a heavy heart: ...why?Why do I find this scene cute?Is there something wrong with me?

Gongsun Ce approached Mo Qi, and asked softly, "Master, did you know the Seventh Prince of Liao?"

Mo Qi shook his head: "I've never seen it before Yumen Pass."

Gongsun Ce snorted, and walked away with disbelief on his face.

·

·

When everyone arrived in front of the prison, Vice General Shi was sitting on a straw bed, shaking his legs anxiously.

As soon as he saw Bao Zheng, Deputy General Shi jumped up from the bed, rushed to the door, knelt down to Bao Zheng, kowtowed and said: "The last general is confused! The last general pleads guilty, the last general pleads guilty! But I beg Mr. Bao You must hold your hand high and spare the life of the last general—"

Deputy General Shi knelt down at Bao Zheng's feet without any bones, begging for his life.

Yelu Ruyu looked at Deputy General Shi who kept kowtowing, tapped the corners of his lips with a folding fan, and said mockingly: "Interesting. I have never seen such a thing in Daliao, let alone committing such a thing." , there are people who beg for mercy. This trip to Song Dynasty, I have gained a lot of knowledge."

Deputy General Shi bowed as soon as he accepted his head, and there was a knocking sound.

The Hexi army stationed outside his cell, with a livid face, opened the door with a bang, then forcibly picked up Deputy General Shi and took him to the interrogation room.

"General Mu, he also died tonight." Bao Zheng didn't say anything else, and directly threw out the news that most shook Vice General Shi's mind.

Deputy General Shi was released by the Hexi Army, and when he heard the news, he immediately fell to the ground: "What..."

Bao Zheng slapped the gavel: "If you don't want to be the next one, you'd better tell the truth as you know it. What did you and those two bastards who died in the morgue do?"

Deputy General Shi knelt on the ground with a pale face, but did not speak.

Gong Jiu smiled coldly: "Deputy General Shi has seen Tao Zhifu's body, right? I don't know how the murderer...how he cut open Tao Zhifu's flesh, I hope it wasn't while he was alive."

Deputy General Shi swallowed involuntarily.

Gong Jiu said slowly: "Confess well, maybe you can leave a whole body of you, at least you can save yourself the pain in life. Don't be obsessed with your obsession, you have to endure some torture first, and then be humiliated and tortured to death by the murderer." , the corpse is still made into that shameful appearance... so it is not worth it?"

"I'll say it! I'll say it!" Lieutenant General Shi felt numb all over his body when he heard Gong Jiu's words. He didn't even dare to think about the terrible and shameful scars on Tao Zhifu's body. The only one who is still alive is about to face something.

He immediately couldn't hold it anymore, and he didn't have the slightest bit of strength: "When General Mu was transferred from Yunnan to Hexi, I was just an ordinary centurion... When General Pang was here, he was very strict in military discipline. I didn’t have the chance to go out to shop at all, and I held back for several years. The day General Mu was transferred to the Hexi Army, I couldn’t hold back, so I went to the Nanfeng Pavilion in the city..."

Deputy General Shi looked carefully at Bao Zheng: "No, I didn't expect that I met the newly transferred General Mu and Tao Zhifu there, so I realized that they are also of the same kind..." He said a little reservedly, " It's just... a bit of a special hobby in that respect..."

Gongsun Ce frowned in disgust, but still opened his mouth.
