[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Daoist Mo's Whisk

With countless silver tickets to open the way, Lihua was quickly called over by the beaming Zhu Honghong.As soon as she saw the few people in the room who were sitting upright and staring at her, she knew exactly what they were going to ask: "Did all the guests also want to hear about the fire the day before yesterday?"

Zhu Honghong pounded on Lihua: "Speak carefully! Here," Zhu Honghong pointed out Mo Qi to Lihua, and said, "He will be our big boss from now on! What happened the night before yesterday, you care about everything Tell the host one more time, don't add oil and vinegar, and don't miss any details."

Lihua's attitude was really different, and the expression on her face suddenly became serious.

Originally, she was thinking about how to add fuel to the story, to make the story she had told nearly a hundred times in the past two days even more bizarre, so as to coax the guests to enjoy themselves and give them more rewards. Now that she has learned about Mo Qi's new identity, Then he withdrew his little thought: "I understand."

Lihua didn't repeat herself anymore, and said simply and concisely: "The night before yesterday, those two adults came to our boat and said they wanted to listen to music. I was the best pipa player on our boat, so I was selected by them to serve me. Enter After the wing room, I turned into the inner room and started to sing. They still asked me with a smile at that time, do you know what song the murderous merchant ghost on the Qinhuai River sang..."

Lu Xiaofeng cheered up: "That's right! You have been on the Qinhuai River all the time, and it is indeed possible that you have heard the complete song sung by the so-called 'Ghost of the Merchant Girl'. Then do you know what kind of song is that singing?" song?"

Lihua nodded and said: "Of course I know, that song should be "Singing the Night·Hou Ting Hua". It's just...you heard it too, the lyrics of this song are Hou Ting Hua, it's always something like the death of the country The unlucky thing has something to do with it, and it sounds a little unlucky. And the words in the song are also about the subjugation of the country, so not many people will sing this kind of unlucky song to the guests."

Lu Xiaofeng froze for a moment: "Then... what is this song about?"

Lihua said: "This song is about a business woman who has lost her country. She leans on the railing and looks at the Qinhuai River. The setting sun is reflected on the Qinhuai River and dyes the river red. Thinking of my relatives and lovers who died tragically, I wept and threw myself into the Qinhuai River."

Lu Xiaofeng murmured: "This song actually tells such a story... No wonder there are rumors that the seven murders on the Qinhuai River were all done by the ghost of a merchant woman who threw herself into the Qinhuai River and died."

Lin Qi was puzzled: "I don't understand why the murderer sings this kind of song when killing people?"

Lu Xiaofeng turned his head and whispered to Lin Qi: "You are thinking too narrowly. Who said that the song can only be sung by the murderer? What if it is not a group of people? The meaning of singing is not in the lyrics, but in the song. It is to remind the murderer to kill."

Lin Qi said in a daze: "Isn't it a group of people? Doesn't it make sense? When the murderer heard someone singing, he could say that he didn't pay attention at first, but after a lot of times later, he will definitely know that the other party is waiting for him to kill It’s time to sing! It’s all like this, didn’t the murderer kill the singer? How could he let the singer continue to expose his actions?”

Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his chin: "What you said is very reasonable, but if the murderer is an ordinary person, but the one who sings is the one who used force to restrain the dead?"

Lin Qi's eyes drooped: "Hero Lu, aren't you talking back again. Then why did the person who restrained the dead sing?"

Lu Xiaofeng was defeated: "...you are right, this is still to be discussed, singing is really not a big deal, but I am sure, there must be a reasonable explanation."

Lihua saw that Lu Xiaofeng and Lin Qi had finished whispering each other, and then continued: "The two guests yesterday asked the same question as you, and I answered them the same as before. They were originally very interested in wanting me to share this song too. I sang it for them, and after listening to my explanation, I said with a black face that I am unlucky and stop singing. I will continue to sing the song at the beginning."

"They no longer cared what I played, ordered some side dishes and started chatting while eating. I can't remember every word of what I said, but the general meaning is that a batch of salt was shipped from the southeast, and they stuck it. It’s in hand, and I’m going to wait for a while to wait for the ‘filial piety’ from the people below, and then open this pass and let Shangyan pass.”

"Commercial salt? Isn't it forbidden in Song Dynasty to sell private salt?" Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback.

Lihua shook her head: "I don't know about that."

Lin Qi turned around and said in a low voice to everyone: "This salt was transported from the southeast coast, where the counties and towns were flooded. It is said to be private salt, but in fact it is no different from public salt."

Gong Jiu said: "Please explain in detail."

Lin Qidao: "Those counties and towns are close to the coast, and they are remote and wild places that are difficult to cultivate. Although there is Zhennan General Li Guanghan guarding the south, the Song Dynasty has a vast territory after all, and there are always some places that cannot be taken care of. Like those Counties and towns are places that soldiers and generals can’t take care of. The land is barren, the economy is barren, and the population is scarce. Such counties and towns are not easy to send troops to. So there are often pirates and Japanese invaders.”

"This year coincides with the year of rain again. Those counties and towns have been flooded, and people's lives are even more difficult. Without money, troubles are prone to occur. So Mr. Bao thought of a way, thinking of using work as relief, so that those counties and towns The people here help cultivate the local sea salt and send it to the inland, and all the money from the sale will be regarded as their wages.”

"So, the commercial salt that those two officials said refers to this batch of sea salt?" Mo Qi asked.

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That's right."

Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said: "This salt is the life-saving straw for the people of Dongnan county and town. They still want to withhold it and wait for the 'filial piety' from the people below? Just these few days of their delay, Dongnan doesn't know what will happen. Trouble! This kind of person who sits on a vegetarian diet is really abominable!" He looked up at Mo Qi, but seeing Mo Qi's pensive expression, he couldn't help being surprised, "Daoxian, aren't you angry?"

Mo Qi didn't speak, but still had that thoughtful expression.

Gong Jiu smiled and explained on behalf of Mo Qi: "He is probably thinking why the people in the southeast county and town suffered a disaster and were short of money, but Mr. Bao didn't ask him to borrow it."

After all, this person has the grand ambition to support the entire Song Dynasty by himself.

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

We don't understand what you rich people think.

The poor Lu Xiaofeng Lu Daxia was stabbed in his self-esteem, so he turned around and said to Lihua, "Go on."

Lihua shook her head: "There will be nothing after that. I only listened to them talking about Shangyan, and halfway through the song, I suddenly fainted."

"I don't know how I got dizzy, but I'm sure I wasn't knocked out, because I didn't feel any pain when I woke up—in short, when I woke up, I found that I was no longer on the original flower boat. Lying on a small pier, it was early morning."

"I was very scared and didn't know what happened, so I immediately went back to the Qinhuai River. I wanted to go back to my flower boat and talk to sister Zhu about it. As soon as I got to the river, I saw Zhu My sister and the others, and the charred flower boat on the river bank. Sister Zhu told me that after I passed out, the two guests I received were burned to death.”

"What do you mean? The murderer knocked you out before the murder, and put you on the pier before setting fire to it, so that you escaped being burned to death?" Gong Jiu couldn't understand, "The murderer is so kind ? Why did he go to such great lengths to save you? Isn't this asking for trouble?"

Lihua couldn't help but glance at Gong Jiu: What you said sounds like she should be burned to death in the fire.

Mo Qi said: "This at least confirms one thing."

Lin Qi opened his eyes wide: "What?"

Mo Qi said: "These people who died on the Qinhuai River were not randomly selected, but carefully screened. They were not selected by the murderer, and the murderer would not kill them."

Lu Xiaofeng thought about it for a while, then looked at Zhu Honghong, who was also serious, and said, "Then do you know how the fire started on the boat the day before yesterday? I was also on the river at the time, and I happened to witness the scene of the fire. It sounded like it jumped up in an instant, and I even heard a sound like gunpowder. Ms. Zhu, could it be that there are some flammable things placed in the wing of your flower boat, so the fire is so strong? It spread so fast and burned so fiercely?"

Zhu Honghong frowned lightly, and said: "This whole flower boat is made of wood. Whether it's a bed or a table, they are all made of wood. If there are any flammable things, they are all made of wood. We all live on flower boats, who would put flammable things on the flower boats? If something happens, wouldn’t it burn the place where we live?”

"Then someone must have brought something flammable onto the boat...Miss Lihua, when you were singing, did you ever see anything extra and unusual in that wing?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

Lihua still shook her head: "No, the rooms on our boat are all decorated in a simple way, unlike other flower boats, which are decorated in a garish way. If there is really something extra, you will be able to spot it at a glance, after all, we all live on the boat If you are looking for a living, if you have something extra in your home, of course you can tell it at a glance."

Lu Xiaofeng confirmed again: "Are you sure you didn't?"

Pear Blossom nodded firmly: "I'm sure not."

Mo Qi said: "The thing that fueled the fire must have been brought by the murderer." He paused, and then asked Lin Qi, "By the way, do the remaining five people also have something to do with Shang Yan?"

Lin Qi shook his head: "Even if we remove the two dead rich businessmen, seven to two will still leave five! There are not as many officials in the county as five! Besides, at least I know that the secret agent Commander Wei, it is impossible for him to have anything to do with Shang Yan. Even if the affairs of officials can be explained by Si Yan, what about the two rich merchants? How can their deaths be explained?"

After Lin Qi finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng continued to ask Lihua and Zhu Honghong a few more questions, but they didn't find anything meaningful, so the four of them left the flower boat full of doubts.

"How do we investigate this!" Lin Qi frowned sadly, "I always feel clueless! What is the murderer's purpose in this case, why did he choose these people to attack, and what does this have to do with the shadow man's plan?" relationship, who is the shadow person hiding behind, I can't figure it out at all!"

Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "The only way now is to continue to investigate the connection between the dead. As I said just now, these seven dead are carefully selected by the murderer. As long as we find out the same characteristics between them, we will Based on this, we can understand the murderer's criteria for picking people."

"Knowing the murderer's criteria for choosing victims, we can know why the murderer kills; knowing why the murderer kills, we can know what the shadow man is planning behind the scenes."

"In the final analysis, it's all about finding out the connection between the deceased." Lu Xiaofeng said lightly, but his expression was not relaxed.

Lin Qi raised his head and was speechless: "Contact! Contact! Isn't this the most difficult to check! It is said that the deceased may have the same enemy, no! It is said that the deceased may have the same official position, no! There is no public office or private office. Where is there any other connection?!"

Lu Xiaofeng was also helpless, and he couldn't help but let out another long sigh.

Mo Qi said: "Then I'll go back to Jiangshan to get drunk first, and get my things to go to the morgue. At least I can first confirm whether the murderer killed for strange poison."

Everyone was listless and responded one after another, and followed Mo Qi back to Jiangshan Drunk like a dog in mourning.

As soon as they stepped through the door, everyone froze.

"Ximen!" Lu Xiaofeng called out to the white-clothed swordsman in the hall with half surprise and half panic, and he instinctively reached out his hand to cover his eyes that had been bruised, "Why did you come to Jinling?"

In front of Ximen Chuuxue was a table of delicious and hot meals: "I'm here to find someone."

Lu Xiaofeng has consciously sat in front of Ximen Chuuxue, there are five pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, one pair is for Ximen Chuuxue himself, and the remaining pairs are for Lu Xiaofeng and the four of them!

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Who are you looking for?"

Ximen Chuuxue said indifferently: "The leader of the Western Demon Cult, Yu Luocha."

When Lu Xiaofeng heard Yu Luocha's name, he instinctively bristled: "Why...why do you want him?"

Ximen Chuuxue said calmly: "He is my father."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "So--what?!" The chopsticks in Lu Xiaofeng's hand fell to the table with a click, and Lin Qi, who was sitting next to him, rubbed aside in distaste, "Your father?!"

Although Lu Xiaofeng knew that everyone should have his own father and mother, but Ximen Chuuxue was different. In the hearts of Lu Xiaofeng—even many people in Jiang Hu, Ximen Chuuxue should have grown from the snow, or Jumped out of the black stone specially used for making swords, no one would think who Ximen Chuuxue's parents were.

Not to mention that Ximen Chuuxue's biological father would be the leader of the Western Demon Cult, Yu Luocha!

Not only him, but even Lin Qi and Gong Jiu cast incredulous gazes, and only Mo Qi, who doesn't even know who Yu Luocha is and how powerful he is, can be calm to Ximen Chuuxue's words waiting.

The question Mo Qi asked was very common and a bit homely, and it should never have happened in the conversation with Ximen Chuuxue: "You don't follow your father's surname?"

Lu Xiaofeng and Lin Qi looked at Mo Qi in horror.

Ximen Chuuxue's answer was also very flat, very homely: "My father was worried about my safety, so he sent me to Wanmei Villa when I was young, and changed my surname to Ximen."

Lu Xiaofeng and Lin Qi looked at Ximen Chuuxue who was worried about his safety with distorted expressions.

Mo Qi pondered: "So, your real name should be Yu Chuixue?"

Lu Xiaofeng and Lin Qi all shrank back.

Ximen Chuixue: "..."

Ximen Chuuxue: "No, my real name is Ximen Chuuxue."

Ximen Chuuxue didn't seem to be bothered by the issue of his name, at most he was a little disgusted, like every ordinary junior who disliked his unreliable elders.

The initial shock gradually faded away, and his rationality slowly returned. Lu Xiaofeng looked at Ximen Chuuxue, a trace of worry gradually appeared on his face, he hesitated to speak a few times, but never expressed his inner worry.

Ximen Chuuxue looked at Lu Xiaofeng, and naturally noticed the worry on his face, so he said, "Are you wondering if Yu Luocha has also become a shadow person?"

Lu Xiaofeng saw that Ximen Chuuxue had already uttered his conjecture, so he didn't hide it any more. After talking about Jinling's case with Ximen Chuuxue, he said, "I also hope that I'm thinking too much. But... After all, it's just As far as we know, there are not many people who can overwhelm the commander of the dark guards without any counterattack."

According to their estimates, the martial arts of the commander of the hidden guards was at least as high as that of Lu Xiaofeng, which meant that the shadow man behind the Jinling case was able to make Lu Xiaofeng helpless.

Such a powerful figure, looking around in the rivers and lakes, is not too much.

Jade Rakshasa is one.

And it just so happened that Yu Luocha disappeared here in Jinling?

It was hard for Lu Xiaofeng not to raise the disturbing guess that "Yu Luocha might have become a shadow person too".

Ximen Chuuxue looked at Lu Xiaofeng with determination and seriousness in his eyes: "If he doesn't want to, no one can catch him."

Not to mention turning him into a shadow man.

Ximen Chuixue paused: "But his sudden disappearance here in Jinling may indeed have something to do with the shadow man's actions. Apart from the matter of the shadow man, there is no reason for him to disappear suddenly here in Jinling. I will act together with you."

Lu XiaoFeng nodded.

He hasn't let go of his guessing yet.It is true that he has been following the case of the shadow man for nearly three months, and the behemoth hidden in the dark place of Song Dynasty that he found made him tremble. Even the guess that "the shadow man captured Yu Luosha" is not impossible to him.

If Ximen can act together with them, if they encounter Yu Luocha, they will have a trump card.According to Ximen Chuuxue's description just now that "my father is worried about my safety", Yu Luocha must have attached great importance to Ximen Chuuxue. Maybe seeing Ximen Chuuxue will restore his sanity. No matter how bad it is, he will instinctively show mercy. Make them powerless.

A normal Jade Rakshasa is enough to take Lu Xiaofeng's life in an instant, let alone a Jade Rakshasa controlled by the shadow man's drug!Lu Xiaofeng hardly dared to think about such a terrible possibility.

Mo Qi said: "Then we will divide into three groups. The owner of Ximen Village and the ninth son will go to find the trace of the Jade leader; Eunuch Lin Qi and Lu Daxia will continue to investigate the connection between the dead; I will go to the Jinling government office to examine the corpses. Whether it is poisonous or not, see if they were controlled by the poison, so they were killed so easily."

Just as Lu Xiaofeng and the others were about to nod, Gong Jiu stared: "Why? I don't want to be separated from you."

Gong Jiu said this very calmly, as if it was a matter of course to be together with Mo Qi anytime and anywhere, any person or thing that separates them is the hateful and excessive stick to beat the mandarin duck.

Lin Qi was used to being bitter, and smoothed things out with a dull face: "It's okay, I can go to the deceased's side to investigate with Bao Zhifu, and it should be the prefect's responsibility. Lu Daxia and Ximen Zhuangzhu go to find the jade leader together! Let the Ninth Young Master go to the government office for an autopsy together with Master Guoshi."

Ximen Chuuxue, who was still silent at first, suddenly raised his head and glanced at Mo Qi, but his eyes shifted so quickly that Mo Qi couldn't catch the meaning of Ximen Zhuangzhu's eyes for a moment.

Ximen Chuuxue averted his eyes and thought in his heart: I have seen the two of them when they got along in Yanziwu, it is normal for the ninth son to be so reluctant...

But Gong Jiu was so clingy to Mo Qi that Ximen Chuuxue, who had just sent Ye Gucheng away in the morning, was a little envious!

He imagined Gong Jiu's clingy appearance on Ye Gucheng's body, then shook his head, and said to himself: If so, then it's not Gucheng.

For the present plan, it is better to solve Jinling's case as soon as possible, and find out that father who always finds trouble for him.He will be able to go to the South China Sea and meet Gucheng!

·

Mo Qi, who was envied by Ximen Chuuxue, led the little tail who followed him to the morgue.

Gong Jiu was radiant and stood behind Mo Qi. Even though Mo Qi sat down in front of the two corpses that still smelled of burnt flesh and corpses, he left without disgust. He was so happy that Mo Qi couldn't bear it. She looked at him suspiciously.

While releasing the poison-testing Gu worms from the box, Mo Qi quickly recalled which details pleased Mr. Jiu just now, but this memory ended in failure.

The hidden guards who followed along the way were like sour plums, silently rooting on the beams as usual: What doubts there are?

The master has shown his love to Ximen Chuuxue, and even got the envious glance of the sword god, isn't this enough for the master to be embarrassing?

The Daoist still doesn't understand the bad and distorted mood of the master, "If I have a lover, I must show it to everyone in the world, and get pleasure from the envy and jealousy of others"!

The dark guards, who were so sour that they were about to drip juice, slandered madly at the master who was circling around the ink unicorn under the beam.

The Gu worm buzzed and flapped its wings, and got into the charred corpse.Mo Qi didn't look at Gong Jiu, but only stared at the ugly Gu worm.

Gong Jiu, who was still circling around Mo Qi, couldn't get Mo Qi's attention, and his embarrassment and excitement were quickly replaced by dissatisfaction. With Mo Qi's attention, he saw the serious expression on Mo Qi's face.

Mo Qi's eyes were focused, manipulating the Gu worms to search every inch of the veins in the corpse, and filter the blood from every organ.

Gong Jiu suddenly didn't want to disturb Mo Qi anymore, but he really wanted to get some of Mo Qi's attention, so he walked up behind Mo Qi, bent down, and gave him a bear hug.

Suddenly there was an octopus behind Mo Qi, and the Gu worms that were still exploring the lungs of the corpse suddenly dispersed in panic, and it took a long time for them to come back together with the master's thoughts.

Gong Jiu said while sticking to Mo Qi: "Don't you think it's strange?"

Mo Qi thought that Gong Jiu was referring to the corpse: "Where?"

Gong Jiudao: "I mean, don't you think Zhao Zhen's behavior is very strange?"

Mo Qi was stunned for a moment, and wanted to turn his head to look at Gong Jiu, but Gong Jiu's chin was on his shoulder, if he turned around, he would definitely hit Gong Jiu's head.

Mo Qi had no choice but to look at the corpse and continue to guide the Gu worms to investigate, while asking, "What's so strange?"

He silently straightened his back, so that Gong Jiu, who was stuck behind him, would not bend too much, causing his back to ache.

Gong Jiu could naturally feel that Mo Qi's shoulders lent him some strength, and his heart felt as if a sweet grape had been punctured, and the sweet juice immediately filled the whole heart, bringing the corners of his mouth Unconsciously, he raised his voice: "Why did he let Lu Xiaofeng continue to investigate the case after we came here?"

Mo Qi didn't care too much: "Didn't Eunuch Lin say that he was worried about the safety of Daxia Lu?"

Gong Jiu said: "Isn't he worried about you?"

Mo Qi was startled for a moment, then slowly frowned.

Gong Jiudao: "You and I know in our hearts how far your strength has risen during this period of time. You really have enough strength to fight against opponents as powerful as Yu Luocha and Yelu Ruyu. But what about Zhao Zhen? Will he know? Does he also know that your internal strength has become great? You didn't even tell me about this. If you didn't show me your internal strength in the underground palace, I wouldn't know it at all. During this period of time, your How far has your internal strength increased? As far as I know, except for the time we were alone in the underground palace, you haven’t made a move for a long time, let alone have the opportunity to expose your internal strength.”

"So, how did Zhao Zhen know that your internal strength has already been accomplished?"

They didn't realize this problem before, because both Mo Qi and Gong Jiu knew that Mo Qi's internal strength had already been completed, so they subconsciously thought that other people knew it too.But in fact, Mo Qi has never mentioned to anyone about the matter of Mo Qi practicing internal strength every night, that is to say, whether Mo Qi can compete with the murderer in the Jinling case, there should be no one except Mo Qi and Gong Jiu. I have a definite answer in my heart.

That being the case, why is Zhao Zhen so sure that once Mo Qi and Gong Jiu come, Lu Xiaofeng will be safe?

Mo Qi said: "Do you think that His Majesty did this to harm me?"

Gong Jiu shook her head, her chin moved on Mo Qi's shoulder: "That's not true, Zhao Zhen is not the kind of character who would intentionally harm others, otherwise, he wouldn't care so much about Lu Xiaofeng's life and death, and wouldn't let him handle the case alone. "

Mo Qi didn't move: "Then what do you mean?"

Gong Jiudao: "I don't think he made Lu Xiaofeng wait for us because he felt that your internal strength was enough to compete with the murderer behind this case. He thought that our appearance could hinder the murderer behind this case. The murderer, let the murderer have some scruples, that's why Lin Qi was asked to watch over Lu Xiaofeng, and asked Lu Xiaofeng to wait for us before continuing to investigate the case."

"I—I don't know anyone who would be apprehensive because of my appearance. But you, I know one." The sweet grape that Gong Jiu had just pierced began to turn sour again.

Mo Qi: "...you mean, Yelu Ruyu?"

Gong Jiu snorted, not hiding her dissatisfaction at all.

Even when Yelu Ruyu had publicly stated that he had no such thoughts about Mo Qi when he was in Liao Kingdom, Gong Jiu still did not let go of his vigilance and fear towards Yelu Ruyu.

For no reason, why did Yelu Ruyu give way to Mo Qi?

Yelu Ruyu and Gong Jiu are the same kind of people, Gong Jiu is very clear about this.Cold, ruthless, paranoid, crazy, these negative words constitute them.

Therefore, Gong Jiu understands even more, for people like them, the only person worthy of being treated tenderly must be someone who is very special to them.

Just like Gong Jiu himself, Yelu Ruyu would never do meaningless things, so why is Yelu Ruyu so special to Mo Qi?

Gong Jiudao: "I'm not sure about the others, but I can basically confirm that Yelu Ruyu must be in Jinling."

Mo Qi's brows became indistinguishable again: "If the sage really suspects that Yelu Ruyu was responsible for this case on the Qinhuai River, why didn't he tell us about it?"

Gong Jiu sneered: "Your question, I want to answer you with another question. Why do you think the Holy Spirit sent Lin Qi here?"

Mo Qi was stunned for a moment: "Lin Qi didn't do it to protect Lu Xiaofeng..."

He couldn't go on, because he himself noticed the absurdity of it.

Gong Jiu sneered and said: "If the case on the Qinhuai River was really done by Yelu Ruyu. Zhao Zhen was worried about Lu Xiaofeng's safety, and he was not willing to sacrifice Lu Xiaofeng—could he be relieved when Lin Qi came? Are you sure that Lu Xiaofeng will not die?"

"Don't you really think that Lin Qi is really just a little eunuch with no power to restrain a chicken?"

"If that's the case, how can an ordinary little eunuch protect Lu Xiaofeng? Can he be stronger than Lu Xiaofeng? Zhao Zhen only sent Lin Qi to protect Lu Xiaofeng! Can Zhao Zhen send it and confirm it? How good is Lin Qi who can protect Lu Xiaofeng from Yelu Ruyu?"

"It was the same when I was at Yumen Pass. Lin Qi was sent to Yumen Pass by Zhao Zhen because Zhao Zhen was worried about me. That is to say, in Zhao Zhen's heart, he was sure that Lin Qi alone was enough to control me, so he decided to go to Yumen Pass. Let him come to Yumen Pass alone to watch over me."

Gong Jiu stood up straight, and walked up and down behind Mo Qi, a little puzzled, but also a little anxious: "Lin Qi suddenly appeared next to Zhao Zhen three years ago. I asked someone to check it. Before this, Lin Qi had never appeared in the palace. He seemed to appear out of nowhere, and this person stood beside the current Holy One in one fell swoop, becoming the most powerful confidant of the Holy One."

"Appearing out of thin air, won the Sacred Heart... Everyone in the palace is envious and jealous of Lin Qi soaring to the sky, in fact? He can be so proud because he is not an eunuch at all, but the death of Zhao Zhen's subordinates who have been loyal to him for generations. Soldiers and Dark Guards!"

"And now, Zhao Zhen sent such a deeply hidden figure to us again... What do you think is the purpose of Zhao Zhen sending Lin Qi to Jinling this time?"

Mo Qi didn't speak, but looked down at the charred corpse in front of him, and slowly clenched his hands on his knees.

"It's not just to protect Lu Xiaofeng... Zhao Zhen's chess pieces are never just for one purpose. He still wants to spy on us, but why does he want to spy on us? Who exactly is the person he wants to spy on?" Gong Jiu paced faster.

Mo Qi looked up at Gong Jiu and said, "This is just your guess."

Gong Jiudao: "Okay! Now I have two guesses. First, the reason why Zhao Zhen asked Lu Xiaofeng to wait for us and was sure that Lu Xiaofeng would be safe once we arrived was because Yelu Ruyu was the murderer in this case. .Secondly, it must be true that Lin Qi has martial arts. This is not speculation. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Zhao Zhen would send Lin Qi to dangerous situations several times alone to do something. Unless Lin Qi has strong enough force, there is no guarantee. The result—and Zhao Zhen never does anything he is not sure about. I think that Lin Qi must have other purposes for coming to Jinling this time."

Gong Jiu's face was a little pale, because these things made him have a bad guess: "Zhao Zhen is suspicious of some of us, so he deliberately didn't say that the murderer behind the scenes might be Yelu Ruyu, so he sent Lin Qi here Watch us!"

And the person Zhao Zhen suspects is most likely the Prince Taiping's son who was planning to plot rebellion.

Mo Qi's voice became hoarse: "...But Yelu Ruyu is not necessarily the murderer behind this case - isn't there Yu Luocha? Maybe the Holy One disagrees with us, just because he is not sure yet. Lin Qi... …It is also possible that he came to Jinling just to protect Lu Xiaofeng. Because the Holy Majesty does not know that I have achieved great internal strength, and for him, the only person who can confirm that he can protect Lu Xiaofeng from Yelu Ruyu is Lin Qi."

Gong Jiu didn't speak.

But the expression on his face has already explained what he thinks in his heart, obviously he thinks that Mo Qi is too naive.In his heart, Zhao Zhen will always be a cunning and scheming emperor first, and then the cousin who pretends to be stupid every time he sees him.

After a while, Mo Qi let go of his clenched fist, and said in a low voice: "The body has been examined, and there is no toxin left. The murderer's method of restraining the deceased was indeed by force."

Gong Jiu's pale face softened slightly: "If it is by force, then the people behind it have two guesses. One is the Yelu Ruyu that Zhao Zhen suspected, and the other is the jade that disappeared in Jinling. Rakshasa."

Mo Qi said: "Whether it's Yu Luocha or not, it's difficult to confirm until we find him. And if Master Yu wants to hide his whereabouts and not be found, it will be difficult for us to find him in a short time."

"But Yelu Ruyu is easy to find."

Gong Jiu suddenly looked at Mo Qi, his eyes lit up: "——Life and Death Gu!"
