Chapter 8 Blood Debt and Blood Payment ([-])
The noon sun in late spring was already a little bit hot. When He Ming arrived at Liu'an Inn, there were already many spectators gathered outside Tianzi No. [-] room.

The wide-open window of the room faces the clear water of the West Lake, with rippling blue waves, like a pool of emeralds, and a few herring gulls fly over the lake from time to time.

But the scene inside the house was in a mess, tables, chairs and cabinets fell to the ground in a mess, and the resident of the guest room, Chen Jie, had already lost his life in a pool of blood.

What caught He Ming's attention the most was the words "Blood Debt and Blood Repayment" exactly the same as in Zhu He's room.

He Ming ordered his subordinates to disperse the crowd around the audience, while he turned to Xie Chen and said, "Why are you here?"

Xie Chen looked at the messy room and said: "After I returned to Su's mansion, I heard from Uncle Su that Chen Jie returned to Hangzhou the day before yesterday and came here to ask about Zhu He, but as soon as I got here, I saw this scene. "

He Ming squatted down to examine the corpse and said, "Have you ever moved the corpse?"

Xie Chen said: "That's natural. I'm a doctor. When I see someone lying in a pool of blood, I always try to save him. It's a pity that he was already dead at that time. Even I couldn't let him die." Speak."

Seeing He Ming checking the wound, Xie Chen said, "Although the same blood was left on the wall, he didn't die from poisoning."

He Ming said coldly: "I'm not blind, I can also see the cause of death with a sword piercing the heart."

Xie Chen said: "But this sword move is not ordinary."

He Ming stood up and replied, "It's really unusual."

Xie Chen said: "This sword move that pierces the heart is powerful and swift, and it will enter the gap at the first sight, just like a butcher cutting a cow."

He Ming also said: "But just now I asked around. Although no one lives in the two rooms next door, no one heard the movement on the nearby floors. It means that although the two are fighting fiercely, it is like an undercurrent. I have seen Chen Jie's Skills are enough to be called a first-class master, but this murderer can make fierce sword moves against him without showing his momentum, break tables and chairs without disturbing others, and his swordsmanship can be said to be astonishing."

Xie Chen said: "Not to mention that he still has a peerless lightness skill that can compete with Treading Hongchen."

He Ming looked solemn: "How did such a master come out without making a sound? And how did Zhu He and Chen Jie offend this person?"

Naturally, Xie Chen couldn't answer He Ming's doubts, he just asked, "Which sect and sect is Chen Jie's martial arts master from?"

He Mingdao: "There is no family, no sect. Chen Jie grew up in the Western Regions since he was a child. In the past, he looked tall and steady in his steps, so he knew he was a master of hard work. Later, when he asked around, he only knew that the Western Regions were not like the Central Plains. Horse thief There were frequent bandits, and the common people had no choice but to build a village to protect themselves. He had followed the adults in the village to polish his body since he was a child, but because of his talent, he had practiced hard skills. Later, he got some Western Region kung fu from the bandits and horse thieves he killed. Although he has practiced together, although he is not as profound as the people in the Central Plains martial arts, he is still a master that cannot be underestimated."

After hearing this, Xie Chen said: "So that's the case. From this point of view, the murderer is probably quite tricky."

He Ming nodded, and then continued to search the scene.

"It seems that you are right about one thing. The murderer killed with blood." He Ming found a broken bowl in the corner, picked up the pieces and sniffed them, "This bowl is filled with blood."

Xie Chen said: "That is to say, the murderer originally intended to kill Boss Zhu He, so be careful!"

Just as he was talking, He Ming found a broken porcelain bottle on the other side of the ground. Several pills rolled to the ground, and he picked up one and sniffed it.

I just felt dizzy for a while and subconsciously wanted to use my kung fu to resist, but was restrained by Xie Chen pressing down on several big points from behind.

The fast yamen guard at the door was taken aback when he saw Xie Chen's action, so he drew his knife and rushed in.

"Don't come over!" He Ming sternly stopped, "Xie is saving me."

Xie Chen carefully picked up the pills on the ground, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and packed it, and then said: "He catcher has been poisoned, you send him back to the government office immediately, wait for me to develop an antidote."

And he said to He Ming: "You are not poisoned deeply, but the poison is too strong, it's better to be careful, now you can only work hard and you can't move."

He Ming agreed, and then ordered his subordinates: "Seal this guest room, no one is allowed to enter!"

Just when He Ming was being carried out by his subordinates, he seemed to remember something and ordered: "Immediately send out to the surrounding area to find out if there are any suspicious people around the inn last night."

When He Ming was sent away, Xie Chen was still wandering in the room.

"Thank you, divine doctor, please hurry back and prepare the antidote." A policeman urged cautiously.

Xie Chen said: "I have some doubts and I have to think about it."

The arrester didn't dare to say any more, but he was a little startled, could it be that the poison is so powerful that even Xie Chen can't handle it?

Xie Chen walked around the house a few times, carefully inspected the overturned tables, chairs and benches, and then poked his head out of the window to look.

At this moment, a police officer came over with someone, and Xie Chen found out after asking, that this person was upset and unable to sleep because of losing money in the casino during the day at about two or three o'clock in the middle of the night. Come out from Room No. [-] of Tianzi.

Xie Chen hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Did you see someone coming out of this room last night?"

Seeing Xie Chen and the officials standing together, the man did not dare to neglect and quickly replied: "Exactly, I was upset last night, so I was relaxing in the yard. It was around two o'clock in the morning when I saw a figure coming from the sky. When I came out of Room No. [-], I thought it was a night snack delivered by the clerk in the store. Thinking of this, I felt a little hungry, so I wanted to chase after him and ask the clerk to buy a copy. It was quite strange that I came from the stairs I should have been able to bump into him head-on when I went up, but when I got upstairs, the man disappeared."

But the fast yamen servant at the side said: "You are really lucky. Fortunately, you didn't run into each other. Otherwise, your life may not be saved."

After hearing this, the man trembled and dared not speak.

Xie Chen asked again: "Let me ask you again, have you ever seen that person's face and figure?"

The man shook his head, pointed to a corner of the yard and said, "I was standing there at that time, grieving over the money I lost during the day, and I couldn't see it clearly from too far away. If the official hadn't asked me just now, I would have thought it was me who had lost money last night. My eyesight was wrong."

Xie Chen followed his fingers and looked over. Although the corner was far away, it was facing the room. If others wanted to go downstairs, they could only take the stairs. Naturally, this person would be able to meet him when he came up the stairs.Unfortunately, with the skill of this murderer, it is naturally impossible to do so.

After asking these questions, Xie Chen cupped his hands at the fast-moving yamen servants: "I'll go back and prepare the antidote, I've worked hard for you guarding the room."

The yamen servants quickly returned the gift.

Xie Chen left the inn and came to Su's carriage.

"My lord, do you want to rush back to prepare the antidote?" The coachman asked quickly, what he was thinking was that maybe he needed to gallop in the city.

Xie Chen shook his head and said, "No, but I still need you to go back to Su Mansion to pick up Xiaochan."

"Are you bringing Miss here?" The coachman was puzzled.

Xie Chen said: "Not bad."

He then handed the driver a piece of paper: "Just now I borrowed a pen and paper from the inn to write this prescription, and you will also give it to Xiaochan after you go back, and ask her to order the servants to do what I wrote."

Although the coachman was puzzled, he still followed suit.
