The sudden sound of a gong attracted the attention of passers-by on the street. Chu Huan was just astonished when he heard a cry from inside: "It's not good, it's not good, I'm out of water... hurry up and put out the fire ...!"

Chu Huan's face changed slightly. At this time, people had already moved towards the door of Rebirth Hall. Chu Huan had already seen the flames in Rebirth Hall, and the dim sky was already glowing red. , flaring teeth and claws in the air, the courtyard was already full of noise, and there were not many passers-by on the street who really went to find water to put out the fire, but they were crowded on the street in front of the gate of the Resurrection Hall, and people seemed to be waiting to see lively.

The fire came very suddenly. At this moment, Chu Huan heard the sound of footsteps behind him, turned his head, and saw seven or eight Wujing guards coming quickly from the street. As people approached, Chu Huan felt that the leader was very familiar, and the armor was also extremely familiar, and suddenly remembered that the armor seemed to be the armor of the general banner of Wujing Weixi City.

Chu Huan only felt that the person looked familiar, but he didn't recognize him for a while. The person led Wu Jingwei and walked past Chu Huan, stopped suddenly, turned his head, with a look of surprise on his face. Chu Huan cupped his hands and said, "Lord Chu!"

Chu Huan was taken aback, at this moment he could see the outline of the man's face clearly, thought for a while, remembered, and said in surprise, "Hey, are you Ma Yunwei?"

The man laughed and said, "Master Chu is very good at remembering 'sex', and he can still remember me."

This man Chu Huan had already remembered, his name was Ma Zhongheng. Chu Huan had passed three levels in the Iron Blood Garden, one of which was equestrian, and his opponent was Ma Zhongheng, the guard Yunwei in front of him.

Ma Zhongheng is a Daoist from Liaodong, with superb equestrian skills. If Chu Huan hadn't used some tricks, he might not have won the horse race. However, Chu Huan was very surprised at this time. He remembered that Ma Zhongheng was the commander of the guards in Xuanyuan How did Shao's general, just the general of the Guards, put on the armor of Wu Jingwei?

Ma Zhongheng observed Chu Huan's doubts and explained: "Master Chu, the last general is no longer in the guards. Not long ago, he was transferred to Wujingwei, and now he is the Wujingwei West City. Zongqi, these days I am getting familiar with the environment of the West City...!" Turning his head to look at the Resurrection Hall, he frowned and said, "Master Chu, there seems to be a 'chaos' here!"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "It seems to be on fire inside." Only then did he know that after Zhang Douli and An Guogong failed to rebel, the vacant position of the Xicheng General Banner was taken by Ma Zhongheng.

He vaguely remembered that when he was in Tongtian Temple, An Guogong rebelled, and later the guards entered Tongtian Temple to put down the rebellion. This Ma Zhongheng took part in the battle to put down the rebellion that night.

Wujingwei had always been in the hands of Huang Tiandu before. As one of the twelve guards, Wujingwei even had some soldiers follow Huang Tian to participate in the rebellion in Tongtian Palace. The personnel transfer here, but now it seems that Wu Jingwei has indeed undergone a blood change.

According to common sense, if there is a vacancy in the official position of Wujingwei, it will naturally be filled by people from Wujingwei. However, the important position of the Xicheng General Banner is filled by Ma Zhongheng, who was the general of the Guards at the time. This also shows that the emperor has no more respect for Wujingwei. With a heart of trust and an important position, he directly sent his own Royal Guard general to take over.

It is reasonable for Ma Zhongheng to claim to be familiar with the environment of Xicheng. He is a foreign general. If he wants to restrain the soldiers of Wu Jingwei and gain the support of his subordinates, it is a good way to personally lead the troops to patrol the streets. It will get some favor from the subordinates.

"This seems to be a place where slaves are sold." Ma Zhongheng frowned and said, "Why did it suddenly catch fire?" He waved his hand and said, "All of you will go in and have a look."

Chu Huan had already said: "Ma Zongqi, I am also a little curious, how about going in with you to have a look?"

Ma Zhongheng cupped his hands and said: "I can't ask for it." He led the crowd over, and a soldier stepped forward to drive a path among the crowd. Chu Huan followed Wu Jingwei into the yard, and the people in the yard saw Wu Jingwei coming, so naturally they dared not Stopping him, Ma Zhongheng walked quickly along the place of the fire, and soon turned to the place where the fire came from. Chu Huan saw the place where the fire came from, and his eyebrows were huddled together. He felt that the fire was strange before, but now Look clearly, the place where the fire started was Hulse's account room.

Chu Huan remembered that Hulls' body was still inside. At this time, the people of Rebirth Hall were fighting the fire. There were two wells in Rebirth Hall, and there was no shortage of water sources. Even so, when the fire was gradually extinguished, the houses in the yard had been completely destroyed. It was burnt to pieces, bricks and walls were broken, black smoke was still wafting, and the smell of burning was even more overwhelming.

The soldiers of the Wujing Guards had already called a clerk from the Resurrection Hall to inquire about the situation, and several other Wujing Guards had already entered the courtyard to observe the scene.

"This fire started suddenly just now." The man was still terrified: "The fire spread too fast. When we found out, it was already a raging fire!"

"Master Zongqi, someone was burned to death." A Wu Jingwei quickly came out of the yard, "There is a body that was burnt in a shapeless form."

"Do you know who that is?" Ma Zhongheng asked the buddy.

"This is the accountant's office of our master Hulse's." The man explained: "No one can enter except the master."

"You mean it was Houls who burned?"

"I'm not sure about the small ones."

Chu Huan was able to confirm that the charred body was of course Hurs, but Hurs was not burned to death, he was killed by a deadly poisonous needle before the fire broke out.

The yard was filled with a scorching smell, and light smoke was still floating between the broken bricks and ruins. The fire was basically extinguished, only sporadic small flames were still burning.

The charred corpse had already been carried to the courtyard. The corpse smelled of burning, the flesh was burnt black, and the clothes had already been burned to ashes. Chu Huan approached with a frown. Hulls's chest, at this time, I want to see if there is a "" character, but it is no longer visible. The skin on Hulls' chest is scorched black, and I can't see anything clearly.

If it was just a fire, Wu Jingwei would naturally not go to war, but at this moment, someone was killed, and Ma Zhongheng's face became serious. After confirming with the guys next to him that the corpse was Hurs, Ma Zhongheng remained silent to the side Chu Huan said: "Master Chu, this matter is really strange. Hurs is tall and strong, and he looks strong. How could he be burned to death in the house? Even if it really caught fire, With his strength, breaking the door is not difficult."

Chu Huan looked at Ma Zhongheng and asked, "Ma Zongqi thinks Hulls was burned to death?"

Ma Zhongheng said: "It's just a little unreasonable." He went to the burnt-out house, and Chu Huan followed him in. His gaze had already landed on the frame, but at this moment he suddenly realized that the frame was really real. It was not destroyed by the fire, but the picture of the peacock on the frame had disappeared.

"What is this?" Ma Zhongheng dipped his finger on the ground, and a trace of small red particles stuck to it. Chu Huan saw that the peacock picture had disappeared, and knew that his luck was really bad today. Not only was a very useful person killed right under his nose, but he also fell into the other party's scheme to divert the tiger away from the mountain and took away the peacock without leaving any clues. Chu Huan felt a little depressed, but after hearing Ma Zhongheng's words However, he still turned his head around, walked up to Ma Zhongheng, squatted down, and saw a small spot covered with red particles on the ground, sticking some of his fingers out, then put his fingers in front of his eyes, and looked carefully After a while, he finally said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is Chi!"

"Red?" Ma Zhongheng frowned slightly, as if he hadn't heard of it.

Chu Huan said: "Red should only be produced in the northwest, and there are very few mineral deposits, and the price is expensive...!" He thought about it, and Ma Zhongheng had already asked: "How can there be such a thing on this earth?"

"Red helps the fire." Chu Huan explained simply and clearly: "Even if it is a spark of fire, just adding red can make the fire blaze instantly, and the biggest effect of red is to increase the temperature of the flame...!"

Ma Zhongheng's eyes were a little dazed.

"It's actually very simple. If ordinary fire can burn wood, it can't burn steel, but if you add red, the fire can calcine steel." Chu Huan pointed to Hurs's body, "Look at a lot of his flesh and blood. Turned into ashes, even the bones were "exposed", such a short period of time, ordinary flames did not have such an effect... being burned like this in such a short period of time is due to redness."

Ma Zhongheng said: "The general was thinking just now that it is really unlikely that such a strong person will be trapped in a house and burned to death. It seems that he was indeed killed by someone."

A Wu Jingwei next to him said in a low voice: "My lord, Hules is in the slave business and has a very wide network of contacts. However, there must be many enemies. Over the years, it is inevitable that there will be enemies waiting for an opportunity. Maybe the enemies will come to the door."

Ma Zhongheng waved his hand and said, "It's hard to determine exactly how he died. Go find the people in Luo'an Mansion and ask them to send someone to investigate this matter."

Wu Jingwei is in charge of the public security of the capital city. When any case is encountered, it is handled by the Luo'an government. After the Luo'an government intervenes in the case, if the case is too big, it will be handed over to the yamen of the criminal department.

Chu Huan stood up and said, "Mr. Ma, I'm leaving first. I'm sorry to disturb you."

"Master Chu, what are you talking about?" Ma Zhongheng smiled, and ordered his subordinates, "Leave a few people to guard the scene, and when the people from Luo'an Mansion come, hand them over to them." Then he said to Chu Huan: "I will send you to Master Chu at the end."

The two left the Hall of Resurrection, and after saying goodbye, Chu Huan left along the long street with his heart full of thoughts. He didn't go far when he heard a voice next to him shout, "Lord Chu, why are you here?"
