Strange Events of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 40 The Truth
When the carriage arrived at the gate of the city, Ling Changfeng's indifferent voice sounded at the gate: "Master Xu, I don't know if it's so late, who else do you want to pick up outside the city?"

I saw a handsome young man standing at the gate of the city, looking at the carriage with the corner of his mouth slightly raised.It was obvious that he had a panoramic view of what had just happened.

The coachman stopped the carriage and put down the reins in his hand.The originally lowered head moved slightly, looked at Xiaolan on the left side of Ling Changfeng, and touched his waist unconsciously.Just wait for the order in the carriage to strike first.

Xufu Yin, who was sitting in the carriage, was shocked when he heard Ling Changfeng's voice. After he calmed down a little, he didn't lift the curtain of the car, but let out an angry voice: "Hmph, Special Envoy Ling is only in charge It's just the case of Si Tianjian, I don't need to report to the special envoy about my other itinerary, right? Lord Ling, let's get out of the way, be careful that this fierce horse is out of control, it will be bad if you hurt your lord!"

Ling Changfeng, who was standing at the gate of the city, had no intention of backing down, and said leisurely: "I received an invitation from the county magistrate of Qin, saying that the murderer who killed Lord Wang was going to leave the city here, so I came here specially to arrest him. Have you heard of it?"

Xu Fuyin's voice came from the carriage: "It seems that the county magistrate Qin is very well informed! The old man has indeed heard about it, but I have also informed Ye Duwei of the news. It is only because the murderer is cunning and has already escaped at this moment. Presumably Captain Ye also said what happened just now, but he didn't know Master Ling was here, so why didn't he stop him?"

Ling Changfeng shook his head, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said slowly: "Of course, the suspect can be left to Captain Ye to investigate, but I'm here waiting for Master Xu, don't you think so? Master Qin."

Seeing that he was mentioned, the County Magistrate Qin felt anxious at the moment, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Yes! According to the secret report, Lord Wang's body is in the carriage at this moment, please ask Master Xu to get out of the carriage for inspection. !"

"Hmph, it's a bunch of nonsense! There is no proof, no proof, I am the dignified governor of Luoyang, but it is not your turn to interrogate me, a little county magistrate." Master Xu's angry words were full of disdain.

Originally seeing Ling Changfeng stop Fu Yin's carriage, Ye Duwei wanted to step forward to explain a thing or two, but now he heard the words of the county magistrate Qin, he stopped his footsteps immediately, and couldn't tell what to do for a while. Listen to whom.

"Master Xu, since you said that there is no proof and no evidence, and you can't let the county magistrate Qin inspect your carriage, can you listen to me tell a story and see if there is any evidence?" Ling Changfeng said calmly.

Seeing Ling Changfeng's calm expression, Master Xu naturally knew that he would not be able to pass through the city gate at this moment, and his teeth itch with hatred.Just a "hum" in the carriage.

"Since Mr. Wang exposed his background in the court, he has planted the root of disaster, right? Mr. Xu." Without waiting for any response from Mr. Xu, Ling Changfeng continued on his own. stand up.

"Master Wang said that Loulan was annexed by the Shanshan Kingdom due to a curse, but he did not expect that there would be a spy from the Shanshan Kingdom in the court. After the spy learned the identity of Mr. Wang, he spread the news to the Shanshan Kingdom in the Western Regions. middle."

"The Shanshan Kingdom sent people from the Holy Cult of their own country, that is, the Xueying God Sect, to the Tang Dynasty. Under the instigation of the spies, they killed Lord Wang and brought his body back to Shanshan Kingdom."

"Originally, all of this went very smoothly. Unfortunately, on the day of the murder, when he fled with the corpse, he found someone on the road he had to pass. In desperation, the murderer had to put down the corpse in his hand and escape alone. Of course, because he didn't know How would those two people deal with the corpse, so one person was left behind to inquire about the corpse secretly. That is Zhu Liu who inspected the corpse at the time of the incident!"

"It's a pity that those two people chose to report the crime after seeing the corpse. In desperation, the members of the Snow Shadow God Sect had no choice but to steal Lord Wang's corpse in Yizhuang, and because they were afraid of the long journey to the Western Regions, the corpse was buried under the hot weather. Corruption, so they are planning to use the secret method of the Western Regions to make Mr. Wang's body into a mummy."

"So a group of people separated into two ways. One side killed Mr. Wang in the name of Zhu Liu's butcher, and then processed the body in the slaughterhouse. However, after the processing, Zhu Liu was killed. However, Zhu Liu did not die before his death. He did not disclose the location of the corpse, and committed suicide by taking poison himself."

"On the other hand, due to the extremely strict management of rosin, this group of people, led by spies, found the ghost market and bought a sufficient amount of rosin there. After getting the rosin, they prepared to smelt it."

"Under the operation of the spies, the mummy was finally made, and everything was already completed. But someone revealed the secret of making the mummy and the key to the rosin. As long as the whole city searches for the smell of rosin smelting, you can find it. Get out where the mummy is."

"So, in order to avoid exposing such key points, they also arranged for people to secretly observe the whereabouts of the person who sold the rosin in the ghost market. The purpose is to know who the person who revealed the secret of the rosin is, and to kill him kill."

"It's just a pity that they didn't catch the person who revealed the secret of Rosin, but they found out that I was also pursuing the matter of Rosin. At first I didn't understand why they sent people to attack and kill me. Later I guessed that there were other people in this city. A force is also trying to seize the body of Lord Wang. After investigation, we know that force is the Canglong Pavilion!"

"After Master Meng's actions, I guess that the target of the Canglong Pavilion and the Snow Shadow Sect is Lord Wang's corpse. Presumably something terrible happened in the Western Regions at this moment, and this corpse is the key. Now this corpse has already died. Obtained by spies, it seems that in the competition, the Xueying God Sect is better." Ling Changfeng slowly expressed his inference.

"That spy is Xu Minghao in front of us now! Lord Qin, Captain Ye, you two don't hesitate, take this person down quickly!" Ling Changfeng shouted out, and the patrolmen and guards were skeptical after listening, but they were slow Slowly surrounded.

At this moment, Master Xu in the carriage said slowly: "Special Envoy Ling, the ability to make up stories is indeed very strong! Do you have evidence to prove it?" While speaking loudly, he privately signaled the driver to prepare for action.Now that things are about to be revealed, he is just delaying time.

"Evidence, Mr. Wang's body lying in your carriage at the moment, the tattoo on your shoulder, and the rosin left in the government office! I lied to you when I said that the secret was found on the suspect. Unexpectedly, Master Xu still took the bait!"

"Magistrate Qin, act quickly! Ye Duwei, don't hesitate, just now it was just a trick of this person, deliberately trying to show favor to you, that's all, hurry up and join forces to fight against the enemy!" Ling Changfeng stepped back and shouted shouted.
