Chapter 23 Master
Wow!
Everyone was dumbfounded!

But seeing that the person who dropped from the sky and held the iron coffin with one hand turned out to be a woman with the face of the Western Regions!
Moreover, it looks very beautiful!

However, the police officers present were very familiar with this woman, and they all knew her violent temper, so they immediately fell silent and even retreated one after another.

"Xu Zun!" Looking at Xu Zun who was rolling on the ground in a state of embarrassment, Huo Anu was tall and straight, triumphant, "How is it? I saved your life!"

In fact, even if Huo Anu hadn't made a move just now, Xu Zun could completely dodge it.

Seeing that the iron coffin landed safely, Xu Zun simply sat cross-legged on the ground, looked up at Huo Anu, and asked:
"Didn't you go back?"

"Xu Tanzi," Huo Anu put away the iron umbrella, pointed to the iron coffin and asked irrelevantly, "What the hell is this? It's so strange!"

"Cut..." Xu Zun snorted angrily.

Seeing Xu Zun's gloomy face, Huo Anu stretched out the iron umbrella towards him, trying to help him get up.

However, Xu Zun didn't touch the iron umbrella at all, but climbed up from the ground, without even dusting off the dirt on his body, he walked straight into the Yizhuang.

"Hey? You bastard," Huo Anu followed behind, scolding with big shiny eyes, "Why are you so ignorant? I saved you... Hey..."

Xu Zun ignored her and entered the hall where the corpses were kept.

In the huge mortuary room, there were only four mortuary tables with corpses on them, covered with white cloths, and the smell was unpleasant.

"Xu Tanzi," Huo Anu was still relentless, "If I hadn't acted in time, you would have turned into a puddle of mud now! Don't thank me?"

"Shut up!" Finally, Xu Zun couldn't bear it and shouted, "Don't think I don't know how the coffin fell!"

"Ah You……"

In a word, when Huo Anu was stunned, Nie stared blankly at Xu Zun.

It turned out that Xu Zun knew a long time ago that this Huo Anu had not really left.

Firstly, she was ordered by Duke Shen to protect Xu Zun, even if she didn't like it, she didn't dare to disobey that order easily.

Secondly, Huo Anu was very curious, she must really want to know, what kind of trouble did Xu Zun encounter?
It's just that Xu Zun didn't expect that this woman from the Western Regions would shoot the rope with a hidden weapon in order to find a way out for herself, and put on a good show of a fierce woman saving a handsome man!
In this way, if Xu Zun owes him a favor, he can continue her bodyguard mission logically.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zun had seen through her tricks long ago, causing the angry woman to blush and become embarrassed.

"You..." She asked incredulously, "You saw it all? Impossible? Aren't you Xu Xiaopan?"

"Don't talk to me, it's annoying!" Who knows, Xu Zun didn't want to argue with her, so he went to the corpse immediately, ready to check the corpse.

At this time, he suddenly remembered the matter of Wang Shuncai, so he asked the police outside loudly: "Where is Wang Shuncai!?"

"My lord, my lord..." Immediately, a famous police officer stepped forward and agreed, "I haven't found it yet!"

"Haven't found it yet?" Xu Zun frowned.

"Yes," the arrester reported, "We went to his home to look for him, but he was not at home, and we also searched all the places he frequented!"

"What's his family like? Is there anything unusual?" Xu Zun asked.

"No," the policeman replied, "There is nothing unusual, the chickens raised at home are still there, and it doesn't look like they have been away for a long time!"

As he said that, the policeman wanted to enter the house to speak.

"Okay," Xu Zun waved his hand at him, "Keep looking! I really can't find it, so someone else will come over and do the autopsy!"

"Yes!" The policeman left eagerly.

"Huowangwang," Xu Zun finally took a look at this beautiful woman from the Western Regions, and asked, "Will my fiancée be willing to let you be my bodyguard?"

"Huh? Are you asking me? Huo Wangwang... How dare you call me a nickname?" Huo Anu's eyes widened.

Wangwangtong barking, Xu Zun is insinuating that she is barking like a dog.

"When will you stop calling me Paralyzed Xu, and I won't call you Huo Wangwang!" Xu Zun said lightly.

"You!?" Huo Anu was sullen, but looking at the corpses parked in the hall, his expression was a bit unnatural.

Although she is highly skilled in martial arts, she rarely deals with the dead.

"Miss Shen gave you your nickname." Huo Anu looked at the corpse and said hesitantly, "As for whether Miss Shen agrees with me being your bodyguard..."

"Okay, I got it!" Without waiting for Huo Anu to reply, Xu Zun turned around again, came to one of the corpses, and stretched out his hand to lift the white cloth.

"Ah?" Huo Anu recognized the identity of the deceased at a glance, and immediately said in surprise, "Isn't this Master Liu? He died?"

"Otherwise... why would Mr. Shen send you to protect me?" Xu Zun said casually, and then leaned over to observe the corpse.

However, the corpse's complexion was purple, and its lips were black, showing obvious signs of poisoning.

"So serious?" Huo Anu looked at the corpse and muttered, "Do officials also die? Oh no, this is the first time I see a dead official!"

"Hey?" Xu Zun found the clue before he checked carefully, pointing to Liu Zhang's neck and asked, "Look at his neck bone, is it broken?"

Hearing the question, Huo Anu came to him, squeezed it boldly, nodded and said: "Indeed, this method is different from mine, I didn't do it!"

"..." Xu Zun was speechless and stared at Huo Anu for three seconds.

"My Chinese is not good," Huo Anu said again, "I mean, the martial arts of the person who killed him are not inferior to mine!"

"Oh?" Xu Zun's eyes lit up, and he asked, "How did you see that?"

"Look," Huo Anu said, pinching the corpse's neck, "his neck bone was broken very neatly, just the fatal place!
"This shows that the opponent's skills are profound, and his strikes are clean and quick, which is almost fatal! If it is an ordinary person, the bones will bend and even show signs of shattering!"

"Oh..." Xu Zunruo realized something, "So, this so-called expert also knows a lot about human bones?"

"It can be said like this!" Huo Anu said, "High-level killers and assassins will all be trained in this area! But..." She pointed to the corpse and said, "Why does Master Liu seem to have been poisoned? And like It's snake venom..."

Xu Zun immediately pried open Liu Zhang's mouth, observed and said, "There is no discoloration inside his throat. I suspect that after someone killed him, he deliberately applied poison to pretend to be poisoned! Strange..."

"Yeah, why do you have to pretend?" Huo Anu was also curious, and asked Xu Zun, "Where was Master Liu killed? He is an old man, what did he provoke?"

"The iron coffin case happened two years ago," Xu Zun said to himself, "Since the last time it happened, the county magistrate was dismissed and the county lieutenant was assigned...

"But this time, the master died in the coffin! Could it be..." He opened his mouth wide and said, "The murderer is targeting our Xinye county government? Next..."

"The next one is you!?" Huo Anu was extremely excited.

"No! County Magistrate Luo is older than me, so it seems like he is more dangerous than me?" Xu Zun said, "There is also our county magistrate Qiu, of course, there may be me too!"

"Wait..." Huo Anu understood something, and asked earnestly, "You just said that Master Liu died in a coffin? Is that the iron coffin?"

Seeing that Xu Zun didn't deny it, Huo Anu held the iron umbrella and said excitedly: "Wow, what a powerful case! Fortunately, it's here! Xu Xiao...oh, Captain Xu, where did the iron coffin... come from? "

Xu Zun didn't answer her question, but went to a nearby corpse and lifted the white cloth, revealing the corpse of a mysterious Taoist priest.

The Taoist still has a hideous face!

Xu Zun took a closer look and found that there were also obvious signs of poisoning on his face.

They were also poisoned, Mr. Liu died peacefully, but why was he so hideous?It seemed that before he died, he saw something terrifying?

"Hey?" Who knows, when Huo Anu came over, he pointed to the corpse and said, "Isn't this the Taoist priest in the Longevity Temple?"
