Chapter 105
The man in jacket and robe moved fiercely, in order not to show his true face, Cheng Sanwu raised his arm sideways to cover most of his face, and only used one hand to fight the enemy, and he was beaten too much in a hurry.
"Show your face!"
The man in the coat yelled violently, swiped his palm down, and tried to forcibly break the arm covering his face, Cheng Sanwu dodged to avoid it, and took the opportunity to pull out the horizontal knife with his other hand, and hurriedly used the Yanfeng knife technique, performing a dazzling dance.
With a squeak, the cuff of the robed man was caught in the knife net. If he hadn't pulled his arm like lightning, he might not be able to keep his entire palm.
Cheng Sanwu seized the opportunity to turn around and run away, who would have expected that the man in the coat would not give in, even though he didn't carry a weapon, he would still be reckless, kicked his feet, and the snow behind him flew straight towards him.
But Cheng Sanwu's escaping act revealed his flaws, he sensed the murderous intent behind him, turned around and slashed angrily, as if spreading out a fan-shaped knife light.
The man in the coat suddenly stamped his feet, trying to stop the castration, but he was a little slower, blood was seen on his arm immediately.
But Cheng Sanwu succeeded in one strike, he didn't take any action to kill people, he just exchanged a glance with the man in coat and robe, and immediately flew up, and after a few ups and downs, he turned over the courtyard wall.
After Cheng and Zhang escaped from Liu's house, they hurried into a secluded alley, running wildly all the way, until they saw a little dense crowd of pedestrians, and then slowed down.
"Is someone chasing you?" Zhang Fan wiped off his sweat, and glanced back.
"No!" Cheng Sanwu scolded, "Damn it, aren't we from the Ministry of Internal Affairs? We're not thieves, why run away?"
Zhang Fan shook his head and said, "The current situation is unclear. Mrs. Liu was killed, which proves that the resident here has been exposed. We should not reveal our identity... Could that person be the murderer of Mrs. Liu?"
"No!" Cheng Sanwu said angrily, "He's not as capable as I am. If it wasn't for concealing his face, I could beat him without drawing my sword!"
Zhang Fan nodded silently, the murderer who killed Mrs. Liu had unbelievably high martial arts, and there are many doubts at the moment, it is really inappropriate to act publically.
The two returned to the inn, not daring to show up easily, until the evening, when Hu Yi and Xu 23 returned one after another, and also learned about the situation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Did you hear any rumors outside?" Zhang Fan asked first.
"No." Hu Yi shook his head: "The price of salt has been rising for more than half a year, and many merchants are hoarding private salt. As for the monsters in the salt pond, they don't know much about them, and they are all ambiguous rumors."
Xu 23 said: "I haven't seen that Pang Guanzhu. I heard that he has gone to Yanchi to investigate."
Zhang Fan took out several files and documents, and said in a deep voice: "Look at it, there are probably only a few of us left in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Lingzhou."
"Speaking of which..." Cheng Sanwu was chewing on the sweet and delicious yellow rice sticky cake, and asked, "Could the guy who rushed into the yard just now be from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
Zhang Fan thought for a moment: "It's hard to say, but it doesn't look like it to me."
"Don't you even know who is in the place where the Ministry of Internal Affairs is stationed?" Cheng Sanwu smiled.
"Can the prefectural and county magistrates who take office know all the government officials in the local government in advance?" Zhang Fan asked rhetorically, and then explained: "Spies like Mrs. Liu who are stationed in various places are not officials ordered by the imperial court. It is impossible for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to give They deploy a large number of people, and most of the time they need spies to recruit their own followers."
Cheng Sanwu smiled and said, "So you have to spend your own money?"
"That's right." Zhang Fan nodded and said, "correspondingly, the Ministry of Internal Affairs doesn't care if these spies have any business in the local area. They all rely on their own abilities. They are spies, but they don't have to act in secret. Like Mrs. Liu The widow, who would have guessed that she is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
"But she was killed anyway." Cheng Sanwu scratched his head.
"The matter is more serious than I expected." Zhang Fan originally thought that this trip was just to investigate Cheng Sanwu for Eunuch Feng. enough to handle.
However, the news back to Chang'an was obviously delayed. When Mrs. Liu found out that the situation of the monster in Yanchi had deteriorated, she was assassinated suddenly before she found out the truth.
"It seems that the murderer didn't want anyone to find out what happened to the monster in Yanchi, so he killed Mrs. Liu." Hu Yi hastily read the document.
Xu 23 snorted coldly: "Tu Mi Man Sect, this is to completely prevent the news from spreading."
"But Mrs. Liu's death and family destruction will be exposed sooner or later." Zhang Fan couldn't figure it out at all: "Even if we haven't rushed to Lingwu City today, someone else broke into Liu's house, and the tragedy of family destruction is difficult to cover up."
"Then what should we do now?" Cheng Sanwu asked.
"Let me think about it..." When Zhang Fan was thinking, someone knocked on the door outside the house, and it was Wei Ying: "Several benefactors, I wonder if it is convenient for the villain to tell you something?"
Zhang Fan put away the files and documents, waved his hand, and Hu Yi picked up the iron mace and tapped the ground lightly, removing the spell covering the sound, and then stepped forward to open the door.
"Brothers of the Wei family just say anything, you're welcome." Cheng Sanwu took the initiative to invite the other party to sit down.
"I made my benefactors laugh at me." Wei Ying said immediately: "The villain has found the clan uncle. He is currently in Lingwu City, but it's just a little inconvenient right now."
Zhang Fan asked, "What's the inconvenience?"
"You benefactors don't know yet, do you? There was a major murder case in Lingwu City today." Wei Ying spoke cautiously when he said this. No mercy.
"Major homicide?" Zhang Fan has roughly guessed it.
"There is a large family in the west of the city. There are more than [-] people in the family, men and women, all of whom were killed!" Wei Yingyan said: "As an inspector, Uncle Xiaorenzu is responsible for arresting criminals and robbers. I'm afraid I don't have time to meet my benefactors..."
Zhang Fan nodded silently, while Cheng Sanwu said without hesitation: "It must be a matter of official business, after all, dozens of lives are involved!"
As soon as these words came out, the three of Zhang Fan and the others immediately stared at them. Wei Ying added: "There is one more thing. In the next few days, there may be officers and soldiers in Lingwu City who will conduct strict investigations. If the benefactors have nothing important to do, it is best to leave In the inn, so as not to meet those rude military men who are blackmailing and extorting, causing trouble for no reason."
"Of course." Cheng Sanwu patted his thigh, looking completely unaware: "Wandering in the street, if you are regarded as a murderer, it will not be fun!"
Wei Ying could only smile apologetically, while Zhang Fan and the others were helpless.
……
"Murder case?"
Lingwu City has both water and land, and there are many hotels and restaurants near the ferry on the bank of the Yellow River.At this moment, Mr. Zhaoyang is in the private room on the second floor of a fine wine shop, looking at the little fishing lights at the ferry by the river, and on the table in front of him are the delicacies from around Lingzhou, especially the pot of tofu and silver carp soup, which tastes delicious , The soup is milky white, and seasoned with pepper and coriander, which is most suitable for winter cold.
Mr. Zhaoyang was tasting the delicious fish soup when he happened to see a boat lady on the bank. The vitality made Mr. Zhaoyang move his index finger. He is used to delicacies from mountains and seas on weekdays, and occasionally wants to eat some porridge and wild vegetables for a change.
Just as Mr. Zhaoyang was about to go downstairs to take away the boat lady, a subordinate came in a hurry and reported a sudden murder in Lingwu City.
"It is reported that it is Liu's house in the west of the city." The subordinate said: "There are more than twenty people in the house, and no one survived."
"Wait, Liu's house in the west of the city?" Mr. Zhaoyang seemed to think of something: "Isn't that the secret agent station arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Lingwu City? What happened?"
"Incompetent and incompetent, I haven't found out yet." The subordinate quickly bowed and replied, "I just found out that two murderers might have escaped. The Jiedu Mansion has now ordered the city to be closed and troops to patrol the streets to investigate all outsiders."
"Outsiders?" Jun Zhaoyang sneered, he listened intently, he had already heard the sound of soldiers and horses in the distance, the area around the ferry must be strictly controlled.
"Do we need to identify ourselves to the local government?" the subordinate asked.
"No need!" Jun Zhaoyang waved his hand casually: "This Yang Taichu is also old and incompetent. Is he dispatching troops in such a large scale because he is worried that the murderer will not notice the movement? You are so stupid!"
Mr. Zhaoyang was disturbed by this incident, and he couldn't help but feel irritable. He paced back and forth, "It's so good, the Ministry of Internal Affairs' residence was actually destroyed by someone? Isn't it a coincidence?"
"Could it be Cheng Sanwu did it?" Most of the embroidered envoys who can follow Zhaoyang Jun know his likes and dislikes, and can also guess Zhaoyang Jun's secret surveillance mission this time, in fact, they deliberately want to harm Cheng Sanwu .
"Are you going to be stupid too?" Mr. Zhaoyang yelled, flicking his sleeves: "Cheng Sanwu and the others just arrived in Lingwu City during the day, and they couldn't wait to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to start a killing spree? Is he crazy or just playing around?"
"But... this person was near Changwu City before, and he also started killing for no reason." The subordinate reminded: "I feel that Cheng Sanwu's behavior is perverse and unpredictable, and I'm afraid he won't sincerely serve the Ministry of Internal Affairs. "
I also wouldn't really work for the Ministry of Internal Affairs—Of course Mr. Zhaoyang didn't say this clearly, but he also felt that what his subordinates said was reasonable. Maybe the death of Liu's house was really related to Cheng Sanwu?
But this can't answer another doubt, that is, the embroidered clothes messenger next to Cheng Sanwu, it is impossible to just sit back and watch him do this, right?The act of massacring the resident spies has reached an unreasonable level. Could it be that Cheng Sanwu is similar to Tu Weijun, the sixth seat at the age of ten, and they are all lunatics who take pleasure in killing people?
But in Gongchen Castle back then, Cheng Sanwu's performance was completely lustful, not the same as Tu Weijun's kind of mad dog who couldn't even talk properly and barked all day long.
The subordinate's words once again interrupted Mr. Zhaoyang's thinking: "The secret agent stationed in Lingwu City is dead, do we need to report this matter to Chang'an?"
Mr. Zhaoyang was about to respond casually, but after a second thought, he said: "No...don't report this in a hurry, wait until I find out who did it. Otherwise, you will become those people who only know how to ask Chang'an for help every day. Incompetent fools.
"I came here this time for secret surveillance. But...send someone to spread the word, implying that the Chengnan Inn is hiding the murderer and leading the soldiers from Jiezhen. I want to see what Cheng Sanwu will do. .”
"Mr. Zhaoyang has a good strategy!" The subordinate complimented.
"What nonsense?" Zhaoyang Jun feigned anger and reprimanded: "I am clearly ordered to investigate Cheng Sanwu, if not, who would come to Shuofang to drink?"
……
In the early morning of the next day, Wei Ying got up early, asked Mr. Hui a few words, and hurried out to the inspector's yamen.
Now that he and his beloved woman escaped from the Deng family in Yong County, the main reason is to find a job to settle down.Even if it wasn't to repay Cheng Sanwu and others for saving them, Wei Ying himself would come to look for this distant family uncle.
It's a pity that some massacre happened yesterday, which interrupted the reminiscence between Wei Ying and his uncle.At this moment, he planned to meet again before his clan uncle went out to work, and even took some of the belongings entrusted to him by Mrs. Hui, which were gold and silver jewelry she brought from home.
Nervously, Wei Ying stuffed money into the messenger. After waiting for a long time, Wei Ying was finally able to enter the inspector's office. He saw those arresting officers all yawning and looking bad.
"Oh, it's my nephew." Uncle Inspector had just finished washing, and sat on the couch to eat, his tone was distant, without much enthusiasm.
It's true to think about it, the two sides had very little contact in the past, if it wasn't for fleeing for their lives, Wei Ying would not have thought of this clan uncle.But in the future, if I settle down in Lingzhou, I probably have to rely on this inspector's uncle.
"My nephew just arrived in Lingwu yesterday, so I'm not familiar with everything, and I don't know how to be polite. Please forgive me." Wei Ying handed over a small dowry box, and after opening it, several gold and silver jewelry could be seen.
"Oh, nephew, what are you talking about?" The inspector's uncle immediately cheered up, and hurriedly greeted: "Sit down, sit down! Haven't had breakfast yet? Come here, bring a snack!"
Immediately, a servant brought a bowl of soup, cakes and pickled vegetables. Wei Ying ate a few mouthfuls and exchanged greetings with his clan uncle. After learning about his situation, the other party sighed: "The Deng family is really hateful! Nephew, you have suffered, I don't know What are your plans for the future?"
"Now my nephew has nowhere to go, so I came here to join my uncle." Wei Ying said humbly, "My nephew doesn't want to be rich, but only wants to establish a foothold in Lingzhou to support his family."
Uncle Clan pondered for a moment: "It's just right, my inspector's yamen is very short of people. You have some martial arts skills, why don't you follow me to arrest murderers and robbers, and you can count as a decent livelihood."
"Thank you uncle!" Wei Ying hastily cupped his hands and bowed.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me." The clan uncle sighed: "Marshal Yang Jie issued a death order, asking me to arrest the murderer who killed Liu's family within ten days. I can't keep my position as an official!"
"This..." Wei Ying did not expect that the situation of the clan uncle he had just turned to was also unstable: "Why is Yang Jieshuai so demanding?"
Uncle Clan laughed, full of sarcasm and ridicule: "You just came to Lingwu City, so of course you don't know. In yesterday's murder case, the most important victim was a pretty widow surnamed Liu. It is rumored that she often had private contacts with Yang Jieshuai. , someone saw Widow Liu coming to Yang Jieshuai's mansion at night, guess what kind of relationship they have?"
Wei Ying smiled stiffly, unable to answer, the uncle of the clan continued: "And this is not the only thing, yesterday Yang Jieshuai went to Liu's house in his own clothes, and it happened to be such a coincidence that he ran into two thieves committing crimes, even Yang Jieshuai's guards They were all injured by the thieves! It is said that when Yang Jieshuai saw Widow Liu's body, he cried and fainted three times on the spot, and then uttered harsh words, insisting on arresting the murderer."
