[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Daoist Mo's Whisk

"Huh? Why did the national teacher ask this question?" The old county magistrate was puzzled, "The bodyguards of the Hongmen died tragically in our Bashan boundary. The county government naturally sent people to Hongmen to investigate. It is true that only A few underage children, and some helpless women."

Ah Fei looked straight at Mo Qi: "Do you think that headless bodyguard is a person from the Hongmen in disguise?"

Mo Qi pondered and said: "A month ago, all the bodyguards of Hongmen died tragically on the Bashan Mountain Road. Follow all the passers-by. Only one passer-by escaped from his hands, and the passer-by said that the headless bodyguard was wandering the mountain road in search of the robbed body.”

"Since we can be sure that there are no ghosts in this world, then this headless bodyguard must be disguised by someone. Who would dress up as the bodyguard who died tragically in Hongmen, set up a barrier on the Bashan Mountain Road, and ask about the bodyguard... Apart from avenging Hongmen and finding the dart, what other possibilities does this person have?"

Gong Jiudao: "I can think of three. One is that the headless bodyguard is indeed a member of the Hongmen, and he is indeed looking for bodyguards blocking the way. The other is that this "headless bodyguard" is just a cover for the person who pretends to be a ghost. In fact, he has other reasons that make him temporarily block this mountain road so that people cannot go up the mountain. The third is...he is a lunatic."

Mo Qi frowned and said: "The second guess may be possible. After all, Jing Wuming also appeared on this mountain road before, perhaps because there is some treasure in the place leading to this mountain road, and the headless bodyguard is the shadow man. Or, the Headless Bodyguard has nothing to do with the shadow man, but he and the shadow man want the same goal. The shadow man is just the oriole after the mantis catches the cicada."

"But the third way is to say that he is a lunatic... I don't think it is possible. Pretending to be a headless bodyguard at the place where the Hongmen bodyguard died tragically is a purposeful and logical thing. This will not be a spiritual There must be other deep meanings behind the madness of a deranged lunatic."

Ah Fei asked: "Then what happened to the other headless bodyguard that Tang Yuandao mentioned earlier? Why did there appear two headless bodyguards? Why did the headless bodyguard at the back kidnap the first headless bodyguard?" Bodyguard?"

The old magistrate was taken aback when he heard this, he didn't even know about the second headless bodyguard.

Tang Yuandao saw that he couldn't ask any more questions from the old magistrate, so he let go of the old magistrate's coquettish hand just now, and cruelly took his panda cub away.

The panda cub's head was biting, obviously falling asleep.

The old county magistrate was empty-handed: "..."

...At least this little GunGun should be left behind.

When everyone came out from the county office and went back to the restaurant, the dark clouds in the sky had dispersed. As soon as the rain stopped, the setting sun also fell below the horizon, releasing a cloud of stars, covering Bashan Mountain in the night.

A Fei was in a bad mood.He went to Bashan Mountain Road not only to find Tang Yuandao, but also to see if there were any traces of Jing Wuming left there.Who would have thought that the rainstorm would come so suddenly, and all the evidence that might exist would have been washed away.

When he was in a bad mood, he wanted to practice swords.But when he was about to go out, the boy who only had a sword in his heart was entangled by a black and white dumpling.

The panda cub hugged the leg of the boy who only had a sword in his heart, and cried out pitifully twice.

Ah Fei, who originally wanted to practice swords, said, "..."

He silently tied the sword in his arms back to his waist, squatted down, stretched out his calloused hand, and hugged the fur ball: "Does your master not want you?"

Little Ah Fei bit his paw, not knowing what the two-legged beast was talking about.But from the two-legged beast's eyes, it saw the kind of eyes that it had been very familiar with since it was born.

Putting this kind of eyes on different people, there may be hot and hot, some are scheming, some are excited, and some are extremely calm, but the hidden emotions behind them can be unified into a kind of thinking, called: Let me think about how to steal this panda.

Ah Fei strode like a meteor, and had no intention of waiting for the owner to find his pet: "I'll take you to eat bamboo and bamboo shoots." He restrained his agitated emotions, and quickly and gently stroked the hair on the panda cub's head With a touch, soft hairs began to grow quietly in the hard and sharp heart scratched by this furry and warm touch.

Ah Fei took the panda cubs to sweep the bamboo and bamboo shoots in Bashan, and when he returned to Jiangshan drunk, the watchman had already knocked on the clapper three times.

After three bangs, there was a long geese cry from the roof of Jiang Shanzui, no more, no less, three more.

Gong Jiu, who had been staying in Mo Qi's room for a long time, casually said to Tang Yuandao who was trying to be lazy, "Continue to memorize your thoughts", and waved his sleeves, pushing the wooden window open with the wind of his palm.

Tang Huaitian was the first to get in through the wooden window, followed by seven Tang Sect disciples, both men and women, all wearing iron masks, looking a bit pervasive at night.

Tang Yuandao cast his hopeful eyes on Mo Qi, hoping that the other party would be lenient, so that he could stop his tricks tonight and chat with his brothers and sisters. Unexpectedly, Tang Huaitian sneered at Tang Yuandao as soon as he entered the window : "What kind of books are you pretending to read? I see why you weren't so serious when you were in Tangjiabao? Every day you know how to drill into the secret room, and when you get out of the secret room, you know to steal my panda, play tricks on cats and dogs, why are you pretending to be an honest scholar here? ?”

Mo Qi was originally looking at his apprentice, but his soft eyes suddenly froze: "... Yuandao, is it true?"

No wonder after such a long time, Tang Yuandao couldn't even memorize the sword art formula with just such a book!

Tang Yuandao laughed a few times, and didn't dare to stay in the room any longer to listen to gossip. He consciously went into the study and began to memorize books.

Eight people entered the wing room at once. Fortunately, when Jiang Shanzui prepared the wing room for Mo Qi, he included all the places on the first floor except the counter, and didn't even set up the lobby, otherwise it would be easy Not so many people.

Not only that, but after the servants moved eight more chairs swiftly, two more uninvited guests stepped into the Bashanjiangshanzui sub-floor, and they also came for Mo Qi.

Dongfang Bubai, and his manager Bai Xiaohua.

Tang Huaitian raised his face, and looked suspiciously at the careless steward in front of him.

Which big man's name would be "Bai Xiaohua"?

Bai Xiaohua moved a chair for Dongfang Hierarch, and she lived up to Tang Huaitian's expectations. When she put down the chair, she staggered, hugging the chair and fell with a loud force, and the chair hit Bai Xiaohua's waist, and immediately threw Bai Xiao Hua's face was full of pain.

When Bai Xiaohua fell, she clearly fell in the direction of Dongfang Bubai.Dongfang Bubai could easily pull this reckless ghost up if he wanted to, but until the corner of the chair also fell on Bai Xiaohua's stomach, Dongfang Bubai still stood there motionless as if nothing had happened, even He also moved his eyes away, looking at the night sky of Bashan through the window full of appreciation.

Bai Xiaohua grinned so hard that she not only bumped her stomach, but also sprained her foot, she was really stupid.Tang Huaitian couldn't understand at all, according to Dongfang Bubai's behavior in the Jianghu martial arts in the past, how such a person became his steward.

No, let's take a step back and ask, how did this little white flower survive by Dongfang Bubai's side till now?

Bai Xiaohua fell so badly that Mo Qi couldn't bear it, so he went up to help him up: "Are you okay?"

Bai Xiaohua limped, and walked out resolutely: "Okay, this chair is broken, I'll get a new one for the leader."

Dongfang Bubai glanced at Bai Xiaohua who was about to go out with a half-smile, "Since you broke it, wouldn't it be the same to get a new one? That's all."

Dongfang Bubai waved his hand, and asked the waiter in the restaurant who was watching him to move two benches for them.

Bai Xiaohua felt deeply uneasy, so she started to toss about to make tea again, but Dongfang Bubai pressed her down with one hand with deep eyes: "We don't want to die yet."

A useless white flower, so she sat shyly by the side like a quail, trying to reduce her sense of existence.

After Tang Huaitian glanced at Bai Xiaohua again with a suspicious look, he turned to Mo Qi and said, "When we encountered such an accident during a long-distance mission, it stands to reason that the client who placed the order must have concealed the information. Actually, in the Before we came to Jiangshanzui and met with you, we had already arrived at Bashan."

"We went to the client according to his information, but found that the address was wrong. The house had long been vacant. It is said that the owner of the house had been dead for many years. That is to say, the client who placed the order People, there must be a problem."

Tang Huaitian frowned: "When I placed the order earlier, the client said that the headless bodyguard plundered his relatives, and his relatives have not returned for half a month since they went up the Bashan Mountain Road. Killed by that headless bodyguard. Not only him, but also many innocent people passing by on the Bashan Mountain Road were taken away by that headless bodyguard, and no one has seen them again. Therefore, he wants to hire us People from the Tang Sect killed that Headless Bodyguard to avenge their revenge."

Gong Jiu narrowed his eyes: "I remember, there is a rule in the Tang Sect that those who commit crimes must not be killed. After you received this list, is there no one to verify whether this is true? If it is false, Didn't he kill a good man in vain?"

"That's another question." Tang Huaitian said solemnly, "It just so happens that the person who came to check whether the entrustment was true or not was the disciple of Yuanzi who went to Bashan to visit friends and then disappeared."

"When we investigated according to the client's clues, not only was the house unoccupied, but even the person 'Li Yi' had never existed in Bashan. This address, this 'Li Yi', was clearly the person behind the scenes A bogus hoax."

"The person behind this scene is very deep and cunning. He didn't leave any information. Even the client's identity and story may not be his own. It is even very possible that even this client has no information. It's just one of his pawns. Once Li Yi's clue is broken, we won't be able to find out what's going on behind the scenes for the time being."

The disciples of the Tang Sect were all sitting upright, like one after another lifeless cold metal dolls, the iron masks reflecting strange light under the candlelight.

"So, do you think that Yuanzi disciple died because of investigating 'Li Yi'?" Mo Qi asked.

Tang Huaitian nodded and said: "At least it is certain that he will not die because of the headless bodyguard. That headless bodyguard does not know martial arts, and Junior Brother Yuanhe will not die at the hands of someone who does not know martial arts. His mechanical skills and Poison art is also ranked first in the Tang Sect, unless you encounter an enemy that you really can't beat, otherwise you won't get it easily."

"I think the reason why Junior Brother Yuanhe chose to ask for leave to visit friends suddenly at this time is that he came to Bashan. It should be that Junior Brother Yuanhe discovered something was wrong later, and he was not sure whether his suspicions were true or not, so he made the decision. First come to Bashan to investigate, and then report. Unexpectedly, he had an accident on the way and lost contact with Tang Sect. Therefore, the owner of the castle, who did not know the entrustment, entrusted this seemingly simple task to A long way."

Gong Jiu squinted his eyes, and said coolly: "This can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. If the person who was sent here was not Tang Yuandao, I am afraid Tang Huaixia would not care about this task so much, then the person who was sent to do this task That disciple, I am afraid, will follow in the footsteps of Tang Yuanhe, and you will not be aware of the problem until after his death."

Tang Huaitian paused for a moment, but didn't say anything sarcastic to Gong Jiu.Because it is true.

Ah Fei, who had been silent all this time, touched the head of the panda in his arms, feeling a little depressed.

When he stopped Mo Qi and Gong Jiu at the border of Liao and Song Dynasties, what he was thinking in his mind was to solve Gui Jing Wu Ming and save Li Xun Huan.In the end, I didn't expect that the further down the road, the more out of control I became. When I realized it, I was caught in a new conspiracy.

And in this conspiracy, A Fei can't even see how many forces are involved in it.

Countless questions kept popping up in his mind: Where is Li Xun Huan?Where is Jing Wuming now?Why did the shadow man appear on Bashan Mountain Road?What is the purpose of the shadow man?Who is the Headless Darter?What conspiracy is behind his actions?Who is that Li Yi?Who sent him?He wanted to kill the Headless Darter, why?What is the intention of the person behind him?

The panda cub held in his arms shakes its head in its claws.It just ate a little too much, its head was groggy, and it wanted to sleep.But now it has not returned to its two-legged beast, and it cannot sleep no matter how sleepy it is.

The panda cub stretched out its paws and slowly dug in A Fei's arms for a while, took out a fruit, sat back on A Fei's lap, and started nibbling the fruit, click, carefree, just waiting to sleep.

The seven Tang Sect disciples all turned their heads sharply, one after another iron masks were facing A Fei.

hooligan:"……!"

The one sitting on the far right is a female disciple: "Is the panda from far away here with you?"

hooligan:"……"

He silently hugged the Mao Tuanzi in his arms.

However, Tang Sect's ruthless cold-faced killer still stretched out her poisonous hands, cruelly pulled Mao Tuanzi out of his arms, and then sent him to the study. Ah Fei couldn't sleep."

hooligan:"……"

There was a chill in A Fei's arms. After losing the panda, he felt that he might not be able to sleep tonight.

"Will that Li Yi have something to do with Jing Wuming? Maybe the whole thing was caused by the shadow man?" Dongfang Bubai lazily leaned on the chair and raised an idea.

Tang Huaiyi looked at Dongfang Bubai: "Why do you say that?"

Dongfang Bubai sighed: "I just don't want to waste my energy anymore. It's best that Li Yi and the shadow man are together, if not... I don't have the time to meddle in your business." He stood up, Walking around the room without much interest, he showed an interested look at the sparkling cold pool, glanced at the colorful screen that had been folded and leaned aside, and didn't pay much attention to it.

"Mo Daoxian is very elegant." He commented casually, and was about to leave with Bai Xiaohua.

As soon as Bai Xiaohua opened the door, she saw a dark guard in white standing outside the door who was about to knock on the door.

Bai Xiaohua and the dark guard looked at each other for a while, and then they were slow to react and cried out in shock: "Ah!!"

Dongfang Bubai turned his face sideways to look at the frightened Bai Xiaohua, with that half-smile expression on his face again.

Bai Xiaohua let the dark guard in, and watched eagerly as the dark guard walked all the way to Gong Jiu.

The dark guard knelt down on one knee and reported respectfully: "Master, the prefect of Shu Prefecture said that he has not received the report from the county magistrate."

"No?" Mo Qi frowned, "But the old county magistrate said he had reported it."

"Then who is telling the truth and who is telling the lie?" Ah Fei's brows also frowned.

"It's also possible that someone secretly tampered with it and secretly detained it?" Gong Jiu tapped on the tea table lightly and said.

The secret guard said in a low voice: "The subordinate checked and found that the document did exist. It was written by the old county magistrate and the master of the yamen, and there was also a courier who sent the letter. He ran to several stations along the way, and there are records. The document is It disappeared when it arrived at the magistrate of Shuzhou."

Tang Huaitian raised his eyebrows and said, "Then the prefect of Shuzhou, or the people in the prefect's yamen, have a problem."

Dongfang Bubai suddenly smiled and looked at Gong Jiu.

Gong Jiu was expressionless: "To be able to do things in the magistrate's office, no matter whether it is a servant or the magistrate himself, the people behind the scenes must have great power and skills, so they can install eyeliner, so accurate and Intercept these unfavorable news in time."

This portends at least two things.

First, after the case is solved, Song Dynasty may lose at least one high-ranking official and nobleman.

Second, the process of solving the case will definitely be particularly troublesome.

·

·

Jiangshanzui is indeed a restaurant built with real money. After meeting and exchanging information, everyone went back to rest. No one had a good night's sleep—except maybe Dongfang Bubai.

Because his supervisor, Bai Xiaohua, somehow collapsed his bed during the first hour of vigil for him.Dongfang Bubai and Bai Xiaohua calmly embroidered flowers for one night, and the next morning, when Bai Xiaohua was sent by him to pick up breakfast, Dongfang Bubai leisurely asked the shopkeeper to open a new room for himself Went to catch up on sleep.

Tang Huaitian was lucky not to know about this matter, if he knew, he would definitely start to wonder if he had misremembered the rumors about Dongfang Bubai's night cry in Jianghu.

Bai Xiaohua curled up her mouth in a good mood, and when she walked to the kitchen humming a tune, she was surprised to see a person who should never be here, doing something that should never be done.

Prince Taiping's son, the ninth son of Wuming Island, is following the cook, making pork ribs and lotus root soup step by step.

For Gong Jiu, this is a big and shameful event, and there is no wrong step.He almost showed 100% concentration when facing the little old man. This matter is bound to succeed and will never allow failure.

Bai Xiaohua's snoring stopped abruptly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth froze for a moment, and she began to think whether he fell really hard last night, otherwise, the scene in front of her, apart from being a hallucination, is hard to explain.

The cook watched Gong Jiu put the last spoonful of soup into the bowl, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped her nervously sweating hands with her apron.

Bai Xiaohua took a step forward, kept smiling and said, "Master Ninth, you are..."

Sudden craving for soup?

No, if you want to drink soup, just ask the cook to make it, why do you have to do it yourself?Never heard of Jiu Gongzi having such a habit?

Gong Jiu held the sea bowl in his hand steadily, more steady than holding on to a sword, seeing Bai Xiaohua who was in the way, said impatiently: "What's the matter, Qianqing, get out of the way."

Bai Xiaohua stepped aside obediently, and followed behind Gong Jiu: "Young Master Ninth, why do you have to cook the soup yourself? Let the cook..."

Gong Jiu stopped, turned around, and gave him an extremely cold and blunt word with a blank face: "Get lost."

Bai Xiaohua stopped in her tracks and stopped following.He rolled his eyes around the back, then happily ran back to the kitchen, and asked the cook: "Sister, why did Master Ninth come to the kitchen to make soup in person just now?"

The cook is already a 50-year-old woman with a fat shoulder and a round waist. When she heard a handsome and cheerful young man like Bai Xiaohua shouting, she immediately burst into a smile: "Oh, calling me sister is really flattering me... Ninth Young Master said that I want to learn." To our boss."

Therefore, when the cook was teaching Gongjiu, she faced double pressure. One was that she was afraid that if she did not teach Master Jiu well, her head would fall to the ground, and the other was that after her head fell, the boss might also be poisoned to the point of foaming at the mouth. .Fortunately, Young Master Jiu is not an extreme example of an explosion when he enters the kitchen. If you follow her steps carefully, you can still do well.

After the cook was happy, she noticed that Bai Xiaohua's smile had froze completely, and her eyes began to doubt her life: "...Xiaohua, Xiaohua? What's the matter?"

Hey, Xiaohua is stupid!

On one side, Bai Xiaohua was being filled with suspicion by Gong Jiu's actions, on the other side, Gong Jiu had already knocked on Mo Qi's door.

It was still very early, except for Dongfang Bubai and Bai Xiaohua who tortured each other all night, only Gong Jiu was the first to wake up.Especially to catch up with Mo Qi's usual morning wake-up time.

When Mo Qi came to open the door, although his eyes were still clear-headed, he was only wearing a snow-white obscene dress, obviously he was still dazed and not too clear-headed: "... Ninth Young Master?"

Gong Jiu stuffed the sea bowl into Mo Qi's hands, and at the same time squeezed in the door calmly, and his eyes were able to seize the timing to patrol among the loose skirts, staring at Mo Qi's bulging, strong and perfect chest muscles. Put: "Drink the soup."

Hi, what's so good about drinking ribs and lotus root soup, and when can I have another "soup".Gong Jiu stared at Mo Qi with great regret.

Mo Qi subconsciously closed his skirt with one hand.

After eating a bowl of soup, Mo Qi truly regained his senses.

Only then did he realize that this was the third consecutive day that Gong Jiu had cooked soup for him.Moreover, this bowl of soup this morning was obviously sent very thoughtfully during his morning wake-up time. The heart of it made Mo Qi's heart swell, and there was a kind of satisfaction that he couldn't admit, and a Criticize himself for the contradiction that he should immediately let Gong Jiu stop the loss in time.

Mo Qi pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and whispered to Gong Jiu: "Thank you, Mr. Jiu, but you don't have to—"

Gong Jiu knew what Mo Qi was going to say, and he was the most lazy to talk to Mo Qi, so he immediately stretched out his hand and covered Mo Qi's mouth: "Try another word."

Gong Jiu's palm stroked Mo Qi's lips half-threateningly and half-ambiguously.

Mo Qi's words were stuck in an instant, his eyes that were always serious and quiet widened slightly, and the tips of his fair ears were instantly stained an astonishing red.

Xiao Ya, who was about to be brutally cut off by the master, raised his eyebrows again, and took advantage of the master's loss of awareness, to push up desperately, inciting the master's heart to beat faster and faster, and for a while it became a rapid drumbeat that roared in the eardrum.

Mo Qi took a step back abruptly, his thin lips were tightly pressed together, and the blush crawled all the way from his ears to his cheeks.

Gong Jiu raised her eyebrows: "I'll give it back tomorrow."

Mo Qi wanted to speak.

Gong Jiudao: "If you dare to object, I'll change my position and plug your mouth."

Mo Qi's eyes suddenly widened, and after his chest heaved violently a few times, he was half surprised and half ashamed and said: "—— foul language!"

Gong Jiu speaks eloquently: "Why are you swearing? What if I'm talking about feet? It's clear that you are out of your mind."

Mo Qi: "Gong Jiu, you—"

Gong Jiu said: "What am I? You should finish the rest of the sentence."

Mo Qi stared at Gong Jiu for a while, then turned around, unwilling to face this glib guy again.

Gong Jiu looked at Mo Qi's red ear tips for a while, and decided to let Mo Qi go temporarily: "By the way, I met Bai Xiaohua in the kitchen today."

Mo Qi frowned, and turned half of his face hesitantly: "Bai Xiaohua?"

Gong Jiudao: "Don't you think it's strange? According to Bai Xiaohua's performance last night, Dongfang Bubai should have killed him a thousand times long ago. Why didn't Dongfang Bubai not kill him, but brought him with him? A People who can survive by Dongfang Bubai's side, are they really so useless and clumsy?"

Mo Qi was silent and did not speak, but a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

Gong Jiu said again: "Besides, just now I finished cooking soup in the kitchen, Bai Xiaohua not only did not avoid me, but also followed me to inquire. He is so courageous, and there is no fear in his eyes at all, only enthusiasm, this is a Is it the normal behavior of Heimuya's ordinary steward?"

Mo Qi turned around: "You think Bai Xiaohua is wrong, then the Eastern Hierarch should be able to find out."

Gong Jiu raised his chin: "I know, I'm just telling you about it—be careful with Bai Xiaohua, I think he must have his purpose in coming to Bashan with Dongfang Bubai this time."

Mo Qi nodded cautiously.

Gong Jiudao: "Next, what are you going to do? Go to Hongmen for interrogation, or?"

Mo Qi said in a deep voice, "I want to go to the mountain again."

Gong Jiu raised her eyebrows: "But we have already been to the mountain road once yesterday. Moreover, the heavy rain yesterday, even if there are any traces, they must have been washed away long ago."

Mo Qi frowned: "But we didn't walk all the way along the mountain, and we didn't go up the mountain to see if there is any abnormality on the mountain."

"Leaving aside the matter of the headless bodyguard for the time being, I think it is very abnormal to say that Jing Wuming will appear on Bashan Mountain Road. Shadow people will not do meaningless things, and every step they take has a purpose The purpose, since this is the case, what is the reason for Jing Wuming to appear on the Bashan Mountain Road? What is the plan of the shadow people on the Bashan Mountain Road?"

Gong Jiu paused for a moment, then said: "Since you decided to go to the mountain road to have a look, have you already guessed something?"

Mo Qi nodded: "In the past, the shadow people did nothing more than two things, one is to hunt for treasure, and the other is to find medicine. There is only one reason why the leader of the East will go down to Heimuya to help, and that is this time. Their actions are likely to be very important, so important that as long as they can stop their actions, or those who capture them, they may defeat or seriously injure the shadow organization. The Eastern Hierarch must have such an idea, so he will I came here specially from Heimuya to help."

Gong Jiu said slowly: "But ordinary treasure hunts and medicine hunts are not enough to pull out a thread and pull up the whole root... Unless, Dongfang Bubai believes that this time the shadow man's action is for that The most important treasure map of the Tang Emperor."

Mo Qi agreed and said: "Yes. Do you still remember what the old county magistrate said yesterday? The Hongmen Bodyguard Bureau once protected [-] carts of gold bars, and at that time they dispatched all bodyguards. But the bodyguards a month ago, clearly There are only six bodyguard vehicles, but they also dispatched all bodyguards in the bodyguard bureau."

Gong Jiu: "What do you mean...you think that Hong Menhu's dart trip may be wrong, and it is very likely that the map of the Tang Emperor's treasure that the shadow man wants is in this dart?"

Mo Qi nodded: "Besides, before the shadow people wanted to make a move, there were other forces who made a move before them. That's why Jing Wuming went to Bashan Mountain Road after the Hongmen bodyguards were all wiped out. He might be the same as us , I also want to investigate the Hongmen robbery case!"

Gong Jiu was still a little puzzled: "But even so, what can we find when we go to the Bashan Mountain Road? The bodyguard of the Hongmen died a month ago, and the headless bodyguard appeared half a month ago. It appeared around this time... and later on, it was the scene where Tang Yuandao saw that headless bodyguard being kidnapped by another headless bodyguard."

Gong Jiu reminded: "Don't forget, the rain just fell yesterday, but the evidence was left before the rain. Now that the rain has passed, even if there was evidence, it has already disappeared."

Mo Qi: "Impossible. There must be some evidence that the rain can't wash away. Maybe it's the knife marks on the tree, maybe it's the scattered hidden weapons, or maybe, along this mountain road, there are other clues on the mountain , That’s why the Headless Bodyguard has been blocking everyone from going up the mountain——Didn’t you say this guess last night?”

Seeing Mo Qi's serious look, Gong Jiu twitched his mouth slightly: "Then let's go up the mountain now."

…………

After the Headless Bodyguard appeared, there really were no people on the Bashan Mountain Road who dared to leave.Even those who chop firewood and hunt animals simply don't take the mountain road, but take the trail.

Gong Jiu and Mo Qi stood on the mountain road and walked to the special location that Tang Yuandao had pointed out to them earlier—the location where the tall headless bodyguard kidnapped the short headless bodyguard—separated to the trees on both sides Look for signs of possible violence.

Gong Jiu found nothing.

Having found nothing, Gong Jiu walked to Mo Qi's side, and saw Mo Qi looking at the dense forest on the south side of the mountain road: "Why, do you want to go in and have a look?"

Mo Qi looked at the dense forest in front of him and said, "The headless bodyguard at the beginning didn't have internal skills. If so, why there are traces of trees being attacked by internal scriptures?" He stretched out his finger to the dense forest.

The angle he stood at was very tricky. Standing beside him, Gong Jiu didn't see the trace of the fallen tree he said, but waited for Mo Qi to get out of the way, Gong Jiu stood at Mo Qi's position, and then looked into the dense forest When he did, he saw a gap.

This is a man-made gap, and the trees tilted unnaturally to both sides of the gap, apparently because the people who walked into the dense forest from here impatiently slapped them with internal force.

"That tall headless bodyguard knows internal skills?" Gong Jiu followed Mo Qi and walked into the dense forest along the gap.

"Yes. It should be like this—you look at the trees on both sides to see if there are any traces of weapons." Mo Qi said while staring at the ground sullenly.

The road in the dense forest is difficult to walk. It only rained yesterday, and it is extremely muddy. When you step on it, it is as sticky as stepping on rice cakes.

Gong Jiu kept his face straight, using his internal strength to maintain lightness throughout the whole process, so as not to step into the mud.It can be seen that if the person who brought him here was not Mo Qi, he might have drawn his sword and slaughtered the thief who dared to take him into the mud, dumped the corpse in the forest, and flung his sleeves away.

This gap does not continue until the two rocks are built together.

They didn't see any traces on the tree, but they saw traces on these two rocks.

These two rocks should actually be one.

Someone with a knife?Or is it a sword?In short, it was a very sharp weapon that split the rock in half.

"Are there any other traces?" Gong Jiu looked around, trying to determine what kind of weapon it was.

"No." Mo Qi stared at his feet, in the gap between the rock and the soil, "but there is something else."

In the crevice between the rock and the mud lay a small, brassy flake.

"What is that? It looks like a copper plate..." Gong Jiu moved closer to Mo Qi for a closer look.

Mo Qi didn't speak, knelt down and picked up the small thing: "...it's a money dart."

"...money dart?" Gong Jiu had a strange expression on his face.

Mo Qi looked at him: "What?"

Gong Jiudao: "Do you know that the gang that Jing Wuming worked for before was called the Money Gang?"
