[Seven Five] Sword Que Merry

Because of the hot weather, I ate cold food at night. Nian Yi cooked a few side dishes by herself. She couldn't go out on weekdays. She went to the next-door Mrs. Wang's house to learn how to cook when she had nothing to do. question.

"Did you go to Kaifeng Mansion today?" Nian pushed the overcooked rice in front of him, and sat down beside him, "Has the murderer been found in this case?"

Zhan Zhao lowered his head and took a bite, "I probably guessed who the murderer is, but I don't have any proof yet."

"How to say?"

Hearing what he saw and heard in class, Nian Yi still didn't understand:

"All three of them look suspicious. Who did it?"

Zhan Zhao gave her food with a faint smile: "It's that boy."

"Why?" She asked in surprise, "Didn't it mean that when Boss Ren and Ren Yazi died, he never went out in the brothel?"

"Yes, but I didn't say that Boss Ren was killed by him."

"What do you mean?" Nian Yi put down the bowl, "Why do I become more and more confused the more I listen to it?"

"Think about it, why did the assailant cut off the head of the corpse? After cutting off the head, he hung it next to the corpse, as if deliberately reminding people that the head belongs to the corpse."

"You mean..." Nian Yi came to his senses, "The head is not from the corpse?"

"That's right." Zhan Zhao looked at her approvingly, "Judging from the chronological order of the corpse and the head, the first corpse should belong to the boss, while the second corpse should belong to the human tooth."

"Has the bodies of the two of them been exchanged?"

Zhan Zhao nodded: "Bao Zheng should have found out a long time ago."

"I think maybe He Yi colluded with him to kill Boss Ren. In order to escape the crime, he simply faked his death." Zhan Zhao shook the teacup in his hand, "A headless corpse wearing He Yi's clothes stopped again. In He Yi's house, everyone would mistake him for the dead."

After thinking about it for a while, he felt wrong again, "But in this way, all three of them may kill Ren Peng, why do they think it's that boy?"

"Because there is an ice cellar in the brothel." Zhan Zhao turned his head to look at her, "It's the weather in June and July, if the head is not covered with ice, I will definitely find out after the inspection."

As he spoke, he nodded lightly and said, "What's more, he was the only one who was able to communicate with the three dead people."

Ren Yazi colluded with the bustard, and Ren Peng was a frequent visitor. As the son of the bustard, he must have been involved.Maybe it was because he was going to wash his hands and quit, but he was afraid of being opposed by a few of them, so he kept doing nothing.

"It's a pity." Nian Yi lowered his head and poked the rice bowl twice, "The ones who died were all insignificant characters, and the real culprit is still in the Hou's mansion."

Now that the government has suspected that person, he probably won't do anything again.It's cheaper for Lord Hou.

In the middle of the night, in the originally quiet Kaifeng mansion, lights and candles were lit up one after another.

Bao Zheng had just fallen asleep when he was awakened by a hasty knock on the door.

"What happened?"

"My lord!" The arrester outside the door hurriedly said, "Someone broke into the Marquis' mansion at night, and he has already been taken down, and he is being sent to the Kaifeng mansion right now."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, he hurriedly got up and dressed, he didn't care about changing his official uniform, he put on his outer shirt and followed the arrester towards the lobby.

Candles were brightly lit on both sides of the hall, and the third class of government servants pressed a strong man in night clothes, probably because he had disturbed him so that he didn't sleep well, and everyone showed a bit of anger on their faces.

"It's you?"

Bao Zheng frowned and looked at him. This man was tall and big, with scars on his hands and feet, and blood all over his face. He must have suffered a lot in the Hou's residence, but seeing his gloomy face, he was clearly the man named Dynasty during the day.

"Say, why did you break into the Marquis' mansion at night?"

Wang Chao turned his face away, snorted, and did not answer.

"Your Excellency is asking you something!" The servant at the side couldn't help but slap him, "Say it quickly."

"Hey——" Bao Zheng raised his hand to signal him not to use the punishment.

"There is nothing to say, anyway, you have already regarded me as the real murderer now." Wang Chao didn't care, "It's useless to say more."

Hearing this, Bao Zheng couldn't help touching his blue beard and said with a smile, "No, I know you're not the real murderer."

"Don't bluff." Dynasty didn't appreciate it, "Is it just trying to trick me?"

Bao Zheng smiled slightly, and then said: "Just ask how a mountain king who occupies the mountain as his king would come to the city alone to commit danger, and even handle such a big case. Anyway, I don't believe it."

Chao Chao raised his head suddenly, his expression was full of surprise, he was stunned for a while before reluctantly said: "Yes, I am a bandit and bandit. But I have never attacked ordinary people."

"Then why did you come to Kaifeng? You are so bold that you broke into the Marquis' mansion at night."

"Hmph, Kaifeng? As if who wants to come! If it wasn't for this Marquis of Yongning who bullied people too much..." He gritted his teeth and spat on the ground angrily, "Relying on my own power and power, bullying the weak and robbing the people Daughter! I’m just such a younger sister, but I just came to the city to watch a lantern, but was kidnapped by his people! Even us bandits have never done such a thing, he is even worse than bandits, this beast!”

"Your sister?" Bao Zheng was thoughtful, "So, you went to the Hou's mansion to find your sister?"

"good."

He followed these words and asked: "Then who told you that she is in the Hou's mansion?"

Wang Chao looked away, and said in a strange tone: "Who said someone told me? I found out by myself."

There was a smile in Bao Zheng's eyes, without telling him: "Do you know why you were arrested tonight?"

He said coldly: "I am not as skilled as others."

"It's not all." Bao Zheng walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, "There were rumors of ghosts spreading in the Hou's mansion a few days ago, so the whole mansion is heavily guarded. The man deliberately brought the news to you, just to Just to lure you into the urn."

Wang Chao's expression froze, and his brows immediately frowned, as if in doubt.

"Think about it for yourself." Bao Zheng turned around and ordered, "Even if you are not a murderer, trespassing on the Marquis' mansion is still a serious crime. You...find him a clean cell, and then ask the doctor in the city to come over to replace him." He treats."

"Yes."

As the Qixi Festival was approaching, Nian Yi bought bamboo branches and silk gauze to make lanterns to pass the time. She had seen beautiful lanterns sold in the street market in the south of the Yangtze River, so she cut some up when she was free.There are already two hanging under the eaves, and there are still many left. You can ask Grandma Wang to sell them for a little money.

In the afternoon, she sat in the house and tied up lanterns, while Zhan Zhao wiped the giant gate beside her.The sound of cicadas can be heard all over the yard, which is both noisy and quiet.

There were rustling noises in the grass outside, Zhan Zhao habitually grasped the sword and looked up, but saw a neat row of dead mice by the door, and two cats walking over one after another with mice in their mouths .

"looking at what?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head and smiled, "Look for yourself... After a while, the mice in the house will be piled up like a mountain."

When Nian heard the words and looked out, he couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly put down the work in his hands and went out to clean up.

"He also has good intentions, isn't this a way of repaying kindness?"

She took a dustpan and buried it in the hole she had dug before. As soon as she turned her head, the white cat that often came on the wall jumped down with a stinking white pigeon in its mouth.

"Do you want to embrace the bird that has been dead for so long?" Nian Yi helplessly reached out to touch its head, and the latter hugged her with his head in great enjoyment.

Other animals have always stayed away from ghosts, but cats are the closest to her.

Strange Taoists say that cats are psychic, and it seems to be true.

Nian Yi teased the white cat for a while, and took a dustpan to bury the pigeon. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that the white pigeon looked familiar, and there seemed to be something wrapped around her ankle. She frowned and took out a small bamboo tube from under the pigeon's feet.

"Brother Zhan."

Nianyi walked in quickly, and handed him the mailbox, "Look at this, is this what you planned to send out earlier?"

Zhan Zhao took the bamboo tube, unfolded the note inside, swept it briefly, and asked her strangely, "Why are you here?"

"The carrier pigeon died, and the cat brought it in just now. It must have never come out of the city gate."

"It's fine, why did the carrier pigeon die?" He hurriedly got up and went to check the bird's carcass, but the pigeon had already rotted so much that he couldn't see it clearly.

There is no trace of the arrow, so it should not be hunted by people. The death near here means that it was an accident when he sent the letter that night. At that time, most of the people in the city had already fallen asleep. It is impossible for children to do it. , so... is it the murderer who came and went without a trace?

But why would he kill a pigeon?

It stands to reason that they didn't know each other at that time, and they had no grievances or enmities. The only possibility was—they bumped into each other by accident?

Zhan Zhao held the letterbox, his eyebrows frowned slightly.

It shouldn't be, but anyone who knows how to do light work can avoid flying birds.

He suddenly realized something.

Maybe that person can't do light work at all?

Zhan Zhao gave Nian Yi the mailbox, and hurried out.

"I'm going out for a while, and I'll be back in the evening."

"Oh."

There are many trees around, and it is the season when the branches and leaves are luxuriant in summer. Zhan Zhaoxing went outside He Yiwu's house, turned over and jumped onto a locust tree nearby. There were five deep marks on the trunk, and the scars were still fresh.

He got down from the tree, and then went to Ren Peng's house, and sure enough, he found the same traces on the trees around his house.

This murderer doesn't know how to do light work. If he wants to fly over the wall, he must use one thing--flying claws and chains.

At this time, inside the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, several guards were beaten so hard by human knives that they fell straight to the ground without even making a sound.

Hearing the sound, Wang Chao got up from the haystack and saw who was coming by the light of the fire.

"Brother Ouyang!"

He was taken aback, "You...how do you..."

"I don't have time to explain to you." Ouyang Chun raised the knife, took two steps back, raised the knife and cut off the lock neatly.

"Ma Han and the others will meet you outside the city. When you leave the city, you can go all the way south."

As he spoke, he reached out to pull him out.

"Wait!" Chao Chao suddenly stopped him, hesitated for a while, and gritted his teeth, "I can't leave yet."

"Let's discuss the issue of Lingmei." Ouyang Chun didn't know what was going on in his heart, he was only worried that people from the government would find out, and hurriedly urged him, "No matter what, you can't be allowed to die unjustly in this prison!"

"Brother Ouyang, Lord Bao...he didn't intend to kill me." Wang Chao shook his head and sighed fiercely, "He said he would clear my name. If I leave now, wouldn't it be a disappointment to his good intentions?"

"Do you believe what the official said?" Ouyang Chun gave him a gouged look, and couldn't help but pull him out, "Let's go! No matter what, let's go out and discuss it!"

Being dragged and dragged out of the prison by him, Wang Chao couldn't help but bite the bullet and go out.The Kaifeng Mansion policeman who came following the sound hurriedly stopped the two of them, but thought that Ouyang Chun's movements were extremely fast, but he tapped his acupoints the moment he turned around, and the whole journey was almost unimpeded.

"Someone is robbing the prison! Let your lord know!"

"Someone is in prison!"

……

Before he left the corner gate, he saw Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce and a group of yamen servants walking in.Ouyang Chun knew that there was going to be a hard fight ahead, seeing that Chao Chao was injured, he quickly pushed him away first.The so-called capturing the thief first captures the king, and before thinking too much, he drew his knife and attacked Bao Zheng.

"Lord be careful!"

Between lightning and flint, a blue shadow swung out from behind Bao Zheng, with a fierce sword wind, forcing his blade away with one move.

Ouyang Chun was slightly surprised, but saw that the visitor was tall and tall, with a gentle and handsome face, and a heroic look in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, among this vulnerable group of arresters, there was such a person who could fight. He clenched the handle of the knife, held his breath and focused, shouted loudly, and attacked swiftly with the knife. Next.

Knowing that this person should not be underestimated, Ouyang Chun wanted to touch his acupoints instead, but his light kung fu was very good, not only did he not be able to get close to him, the sword light pierced through it, and he even found it difficult to hide.

On Zhan Zhao's side, he also admired Ouyang Chun's heart. He took thirty swords out of himself, but he received thirty swords effortlessly. People have their own answers to each other.

After the sword clash, Ouyang Chun was forced by his internal force to retreat again and again, and Zhan Zhao also retreated a few steps before he managed to stabilize his figure.

Ouyang Chun put the knife back into its sheath, shook his head and said: "Forget it, if you continue to fight like this, there will be no results for three days and three nights." He cupped his fists forward and said, "Your Excellency has good sword skills, I admire you."

Zhan Zhao retracted his sword in return: "I'm sorry, it's just Zhan's luck."

Gongsun Ce, who was still in shock, stroked Bao Zheng's chest and let out a sigh of relief, wiped the thin sweat from his forehead, stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Since everyone is fine, why not get promoted?"

Inside the Kaifeng government office, Chen Dou looked at the slightly rusty flying claws, and then turned to look at the wounded Dynasty beside him, dumbfounded.

"Chen Dou." Bao Zheng said in a deep voice, "There are all witnesses and material evidence, what else can you say?"

The hall was silent for a moment, and after a while, he sneered.

"Yes, so what if I killed it?"

Seeing that he had already admitted, Gongsun Ce shook his head and sighed in relief.

"Even you said it yourself, but that's your mother, so you did it?"

"I was born of a prostitute, and I was born to be a turtle slave." Chen Dou gritted his teeth and looked at him, "But why? Was I willing to be born? Did she ask my wishes? She looked down on me since she was a child, Everyone in the brothel looks down on me."

"It's fine for them to rob other women on weekdays. I turn a blind eye and close my eyes occasionally, but I also have a girl I like. She knows that I like it, but she still wants to give it to Yongninghou. Even I knelt down and begged She even refuses to help me! Is this still my mother?"

Bao Zheng looked at him coldly: "Then you shouldn't kill her. If you report to the government, the government will handle the matter."

"The government doesn't care about it." He stood up suddenly, "Anyway, they deserve to die, and everyone in the city thinks they deserve to die! You dare not! There is still a 'mirror hanging high' in the hall, the emperor broke the law If you are still guilty of the same crime as the common people, I will ask you, Marquis Yongning, do you dare to kill him!"

The yamen servants on both sides held his arms left and right, but he relentlessly said to Wang Chao and Ouyang Chun:

"He won't thank you for helping him like this. Since ancient times, officials and officials have protected each other, and the world is as black as a crow! Do you think he can help you get your sister back? Stop dreaming!"

"Bao Heizi." When Chen Dou was pulled down, he opened his mouth and howled, "If you dare to kill the Marquis of Yongning, I will give you the head of my next life! If you don't dare, I will turn into a ghost and come to you!"

Bao Zheng looked outside the hall and muttered to himself: "The head of the next life..."

"My lord." Gongsun Ce asked softly, "Don't take it to heart, just do your best."

"This is impossible." Bao Zheng frowned at him and said seriously, "I am afraid of ghosts."

When I came back from Kaifeng Mansion, it was already dark, and I smelled a strong fragrance of flowers as soon as I entered the door.

"Brother Zhan!" Nian Yi raised his head from the garden in the yard and walked towards him with a smile, "The case is solved?"

"Well, it's solved." Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to caress her bun, and asked with a light smile, "Why is it so fragrant?"

"It's evening primrose, it just bloomed. I didn't expect the fragrance to be so strong." Nian Yi was pulling him into the house, "I thought I couldn't keep flowers and plants alive, it's really strange."

While speaking, he seemed to notice something strange, so he moved forward and made up his mind.

"Did you get involved with someone?"

Zhan Zhaowei was a little surprised, just about to ask her how she knew, Nian Yi had already grabbed a corner of his shirt.

"There's a hole here, isn't he a very powerful person?"

"Well, it's really powerful." Thinking of the scene of fighting against that person during the day, I can still vividly remember it.It's a pity I didn't have time to ask his name.

"There are not many people who can hurt you." Nian Yi pushed him to sit on the chair, and turned to look for needlework. "Take off your clothes, and I'll mend them for you."

"Don't worry." Zhan Zhao held her back with a smile, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

"Yes." Nian Yi hurriedly said, "I'll bring it to you."

Dinner was a piece of fish, which was rare. She actually learned to cook fish. Even though it was the most common steamed fish, the taste was not bad.

Zhan Zhao's heart warmed, thinking that when he was not around, she must have put in a lot of effort.

"By the way, there is another happy event." Nian Yi stretched out his index finger while he had just finished eating.

His fingers were wrapped in gauze, he was a little puzzled, "What happy event?"

"When cutting vegetables today, I accidentally cut my finger."

"Cut a finger?!" He froze suddenly, "Is this considered a happy event?"

Nian laughed out loud, "No, my finger is bleeding, you see—" she said as she pulled out her sleeve arrow, and then swiped at the other finger, and soon beads of blood came out.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly took her sleeve arrow away, "Just say it, there's no need to make another mistake."

"Don't you think it's strange?" Seeing him take out the ointment and apply it on the wound, Nian Yi's eyebrows and eyes were full of joy, "Maybe, I will become a human without knowing it."

Seeing her happy, Zhan Zhao gently bandaged the wound, a smile appeared on his lips, and he remained silent.

Perhaps, God took pity on her and gave her another chance to be a human being.

Certain things in this world are uncertain.

At night, in the room, Nian Yi held the second kid up and down, raised and down again, smiling all over his face.

"Xiaoer, I'm going to become a human, I'm going to become a human."

Then throw it aside, pick up the three little devils and throw them into the air to catch them, then throw them into the air again, and catch them.

"Little San, I'm going to become a human!"

Almost suffocated by her forceful embrace, the three little ghosts lay on her shoulders with ashen faces panting.

It wasn't until finally tired from playing that Nian Yi lay back on the bed and fell asleep contentedly.

The moon was as bright as frost outside the window, and the two little ghosts covered her with a thin quilt, walked to the yard and sat down tiredly, each holding a small wine glass, inviting the moon to drink.

Er Xiaogui carried the teapot back and forth to pour water into the cup, and said with emotion: "I haven't seen Nian Yi so happy for a long time, it's exactly the same as when she was alive."

The three little ghosts nodded in agreement: "Perhaps it would be good for Nian Yi to follow Zhan Zhao."

The second kid took a sip of the tea, pursed his lips and said, "Well, it's about...then what about the boss?"

"Never mind him." The three little ghosts raised their wine glasses, "Just read it and be happy."

"That's right." Er Xiaogui felt that it made sense, "Just read it and be happy."

"Come on, let's have a drink."

"Cheers!"

Under the moonlight, the two little ghosts turned against each other in unison, their raised wine glasses collided, and the splashed tea was crystal clear.

The author has something to say: It's a transitional chapter. . .I also feel deeply guilty, let this fragmented case pass like this.

Finally, the appearance of the Kaifeng Four Heroes and Beixia was settled.

Cough cough cough, it is finally coming, the legendary turning point.

I've been waiting for so long to say this! ! !

High-energy warning ahead.

High-energy warning ahead.

High Energy Warning Ahead!
