Chapter 351 Old Traces
"Later I thought it started when he sat in the study for a long time the next day, then slammed the door open and called Jing Bi in."

Maybe this is where things start to happen.

Xu Chang only noticed the silence with flashing eyes and the worry that he could not speak until he recalled it much later. Under the disguise of sadness, the man seemed to have changed. He began to go out early and come back late, spending the whole time alone in the study. After the all-nighter finally ended, Xu Changchen got up and opened the door, but the man was coming back from outside the hospital.

There were some traces of fighting on his body, but they were very subtle. Xu Chang thought he had gone to Xianqiao Peak again. However, the man stopped her concerned words and turned a pair of calm eyes that made the woman hold her breath. Inside were the only things she had ever seen in her life. serious.

"I'm going out for a trip, Ah Chang." The man said softly, "I'll be back in seven or eight days. You can just live your life as usual - keep an eye on Jing Bi and don't let him run around."

".What to do?"

However, there was no answer. The man went straight to the building to get his things and left.

This was the last time they met.

"Nothing more?"

"No." The woman said in a daze, "On the fourth day after he left, the seal in Zhangfeng Seal disappeared and became an ownerless thing."

It is said that when he was young, his uncle asked himself to be the commander of the mountain, but he gave up because he was actually the pillar of Kongtong today and it was difficult to remove him.

Pei Ye nodded and frowned slightly.

She took down a box, which contained many letterheads of different colors and sizes.

"Yes. But it's just some writing notes." Xu Chang walked to the bookshelf and pointed to the row of sword volumes before, "Some notes on the sword volume during the teaching. There are also some letters exchanged between each other after the class."

".Is there anything wrong?"

"."

Xu Chang watched the calm and neat young man leave silently, and suddenly felt that this was the state in which the man was running around in the days before he left.
-
After Wufeng, the Law Enforcement Hall.

"I don't remember." Xu Chang was startled, "But Mei Qing left on March 27th and died on April 1st."

Gan Zifeng said that [Dasi Mountain] usually selects a person from the elder peak masters of the previous generation who has no relatives and is willing to accompany the scriptures for the rest of his life. From then on, he organizes scripture swords and maintains the mountain formation for Kongtong. A shadow in the building.

"Yes, he likes to talk to him if there is anything."

Pei Ye finished flipping through the scroll with his eyes, and this part of the content ended when Ji Feng returned to the mountain to practice swordsmanship.

Pei Ye was silent for a moment: "I thought Ji Feng might be more dependent on him than Lingfu thought."

"."

The categories of women are very detailed, and there is a small bamboo stick separating the letters, with the word "Ji Feng" engraved on them. Pei Ye looked at them one by one. They still mostly answered questions about sword theory, but the content became much richer. The young man began to reveal some sensitive thoughts in his writings. The men in his family, his master, his classmates, and Shao Ai always also Educate patiently and gently.

"So I feel that such a trusting and dependable person, and such a sensitive and polite person," Pei Ye looked at the woman, "doesn't seem like he would die without saying goodbye when he made an agreement with his husband."

According to the record, Pei Ye walked up to the fourth floor, and the case files of the Law Enforcement Hall were placed in the left pavilion. Pei Ye walked in and saw that there were many files.

".See you."

This cliff peak is shrouded in the deep and high shadow of the five peaks. It is noon, but the fog is still deep. Pei Ye walked through a long straight road in the fog and arrived at this "600-year-old cave", which is composed of [ The ancient scripture tower stationed at Da Si Mountain.

"Well."

But he didn't speak anymore and continued to flip through the letter. Suddenly, he touched the last section with his fingers. Behind it were square papers of the same size, about the size of a palm, and there was a whole stack.

Pei Ye was silent for a while: "Does your husband have any relics of his relationship with this Ji Feng?"

Pei Ye nodded, took it off and read through it one by one.

"Well, I'll go to the Law Enforcement Hall to take a look at this case first." Pei Ye put the note in his hand, "See you later, Master Xu."

"I don't know where he died, and the law enforcement agency can't find any trace of him. A living person just disappeared without a trace."

"Mei Qing went to the Sword Xiu Academy when he was young." Xu Chang lowered his head and smiled, "He said he knew how to teach someone to learn swordsmanship."

But it was still empty.

When the Law Enforcement Hall handed him the record plate corresponding to the file, he said that there was no such thing as "accompanying" or "accompanying" when entering this building. Everyone who entered should have a completely clear line of coming and going, either to check or to obtain. When using or storing, checking for cards, taking out deposits, and keeping them are all meticulous.

Pei Ye picked up a few pictures, and they all had almost the same content: "Good afternoon, Senior Uncle Zhang. Say hello to Senior Uncle Xu and Senior Brother Jingbi. In compliance with the previous agreement, I will go to you at midnight tomorrow afternoon. September 17th, Feng."

"But, that's what happened before."

"This kid is afraid of disturbing others, so he usually doesn't come by himself, so Mei Qing often invites him." Xu Chang whispered from the side, "But even if he was invited the day before, he always asked Jing Bi to hand over a short note before coming. ”

Now, the person who led the way had stopped at the end of the straight road and handed over his hands. Pei Ye came to the front of the building alone with the law enforcement hall sign, and when he turned around, he was nowhere to be seen. Looking up, the roof of the building is also hidden in the fog.

When Pei Ye opened the door and walked in, the hall in Gaokuang was indeed solemn and quiet, and the legendary [Dasi Mountain] did not show up. In fact, this is indeed the real secret of Kongtong. Many disciples who enter the building do not know that there is such a building guard.

This should be the largest and tallest building Pei Ye has ever seen. It is built against the mountain and is as old as iron, as if growing out of the cliff.

Pei Ye flipped through them one by one, and they all had the same handwriting. The last few were quite close to each other, matching the anxious and worried letters from the previous year of "Tiesong Lun Sword". Until the last one, it still read "Master Zhang" Good afternoon, I would like to say hello to Master Xu and Senior Brother Jingbi. Thank you for your trouble. I will be waiting for you tonight, Feng."

"Your husband is really a good teacher."

"Ji Feng trusts your husband very much." Pei Ye closed a letter and whispered.

Pei Ye was about to put the note back when he suddenly paused in his hand and slowly stroked the paper twice: "Master Xu, when did Ji Feng's incident happen?"

When we came to the box, the contents of the letter were much closer.

"So many years of care is not without response. Maybe he values ​​the evaluation of the acting peak master more, but it must have opened a wider heart to your husband." Pei Ye looked at the letter in the box, "Look, he even When giving something to the girl you like, always carefully ask your husband’s opinion at the end of the letter.”

There are many mentions about Ji Feng in the sword scroll, such as "Feng is weak in nature, and he plans to compile the "White Rainbow Chapter" in the future, so I won't criticize his reckless mistakes here" and so on, which is quite careful.

It’s just that his gaze does cover everything, and any abnormal behavior in this building will be faithfully recorded.

Pei Ye lowered his head and looked at the sign in his hand. It was actually a piece of square paper pasted on a hinged wooden sign, which read, "One leaf in the heart of a lotus, nine birds in a pine tree, and twelve feathers."

Gan Zifeng explained to him this square note. If the records were rolled into the building, he would have such a receipt, which could not only be used to enter the building for inspection, but also indicate the location where the records were stored.

"Lianxin" refers to the name of the peak. The Law Enforcement Hall is directly under [Lianxin Pavilion]. "Yiye" is different from other halls that also belong to "Lianxin". The classics stored on different peaks are placed on different floors. With these four characters, Pei Ye Only then can we come to the fourth floor left pavilion.

"Matsushita" is the name of the hall, "Nine Birds" is the ninth side of the book wall with the character bird, "Yuwei" is the column, and "Twelve" is the serial number. In this way, Pei Ye knelt down and touched this thin file.

A case that was closed seven years ago is indeed where it should be, with no one paying attention.

Pei Ye reached out and took it out, looking at the side again.

Just to the right of this volume, there is an abrupt gap. The files further to the right are all neatly stacked, except for one empty space here. Pei Ye knew that if there were too many Jingge books, they would become obsolete, so he withdrew his gaze and looked through the files in his hand.

It was a normal step in investigating a case, and the process was clear and simple. The law enforcement agency inspected the body and questioned all the people who should be questioned. Even Dai Shangyu also conducted a careful investigation.

Pei Ye had already read many case files. Now he pursed his lips and skipped all the investigation processes, turning directly to the end of the file.

The conclusion is settled on this page, which reads: "Xianqiao Peak disciple Ji Feng was heartbroken after losing his sword. He fell off the cliff with his sword in front of Yunping. The autopsy found no injuries, and the investigation found no revenge. The case has been concluded." He asked his master Dai Shanyu to discuss the competition among the peaks again. "

Pei Ye's eyes moved down and focused on the two lines below.

"[Cause of death]: Fall from height.

[Time of death]: March 21st, dusk. "

Pei Ye slowly spread his hand, and the handwriting on the square piece of paper in his hand was still old and clear - "Thank you for your trouble again. I'll be waiting for you tonight at Xu. March 21st, Feng."

Turning the next page, there is a supplement from that year.

"Caiwu Peak suggested that Mei Qing please check the body again. It is suspected that there is something wrong with the heart and pupils. However, after falling from a high cliff, the heart would inevitably burst. After the body had been left for three days, the pupils should have turned gray. There is no further explanation."
-
"Zhang Meiqing accepted the result first." Pei Ye walked quickly on the straight road, leaving the ancient building behind, speaking quickly, "He returned to the peak and suffered all night. But the next day he sat down When I was looking through old letters in the study, I suddenly saw this short note delivered at noon yesterday. "

"It was then that he realized that Ji Feng was not waiting for him."

"It's not that he has no desire to live, and it's not that he has no nostalgia for this uncle who was like a teacher and a friend." Pei Ye lowered his head and glanced at the old note from seven years ago, "He was forcibly taken away from his life. "

Black Cat tilted his head: "But the Law Enforcement Hall did not approve it."

"Because there are not enough clues to catch." Pei Ye said, "Zhang Meiqing believes that Ji Feng will not commit suicide after handing over the note, but the Law Enforcement Hall does not recognize this reason. After Zhang Meiqing gets this anomaly, he will definitely Check it out."

"Where to?"

"Xu Shang said that during those few days, he would stay in the study all night."

Black Cat narrowed his eyes.

"A person won't be suspicious of something he doesn't understand." Pei Ye stared at the fog in front of him, "The file says that after Ji Feng fell off the cliff, his bones were mutilated, and his eye sockets burst out and bled. Zhang Meiqing said that such a pair of eyes were 'different'. Then he must have seen that strange appearance."

".what for?"

"Xu Shang said that he once stayed in the Sword Xiuyuan."

------

Colorful fog peak.

Pei Ye returned to the bookstore and looked up at the top row.

It can be seen from their placement that even when the hostess was looking through this book in memory of her deceased husband, she rarely touched those boring and mysterious books on the art of weapons.

Pei Ye doesn't understand Qi Dao, but he doesn't want to learn this knowledge.

"Notes? He does make them often. Next to each volume is the corresponding notebook." Xu Chang said, "But I can't quite understand it."

Pei Ye reviewed them one by one and dug out all the books and notes that related to the chapter on the mind, so some traces were immediately clear.

Even if you don't understand these mysterious words, you can still tell that in a very short period of time, the man read these chapters extensively and intensively.

There are many notes on other chapters, but they are all written calmly and carefully. Only the handwriting and outlines in these chapters are sloppy and messy. Sometimes the first half of a sentence is in one book, and the second half is in another book.

In these books, a noun is frequently sketched.

Heart amber.

Pei Ye pursed her lips and stared, turning to look through the volumes of notes. There were still a lot of unfamiliar sentences in her eyes, but luckily there was a date at this time. He flipped through each one, and Xu Chang stood aside for a while, and suddenly handed over Guo Sanben said: "These should be relatively new."

Pei Ye took it, turned to the last few pages of the corresponding chapter, and pressed it with his hand.

It is no longer a well-organized note. It is filled with a lot of messy records, inferences, and ideas. And new things are added from time to time.

Xu Chang looked at all this in astonishment. She had never thought that among these more than ten thick and boring notebooks, there was actually the last written note of her late husband.

The two of them immediately spread out the books in order. Xu Chang took a blank notebook, and the two of them sat at the table and began to sort through the pages.

With the help of a woman who was familiar with handwriting, the work went quickly. Gradually, the man's whereabouts back then were vaguely outlined. Seven years later, the worries that had closed his heart in those days were finally revealed to the two of them. Before.

Xu Chang was already holding her knees and burying her head, sobbing silently. Pei Ye leaned on the table with both hands and looked at the book with an unprecedented seriousness between his brows.

The first sentence the man wrote here was the first time he penned it after returning from the Sutra Library, and it was also the starting point for his search for the real murderer.

one.

"Yes, the nature of [Xinpo] is closer to that of jade than to a mirror. It requires a process of entry, and it must not make people lose consciousness at a glance. The reflection of Xinpo should be in one of three situations: the person who illuminates it himself Throw, there is a gap in the mood, and there is no way to resist."

"If Xiaofeng really encountered the 'Kenshin Shotu' that exceeded the dosage, he must have been controlled or deceived first."

"I have to go to Xianqiao Peak again."

Second.

"Two people."

"One person made Xiao Feng defenseless, and one person made Xiao Feng seriously injured and disabled with one blow, leaving no external injuries."

"Although there were many people visiting that day, there was no outsider. Although Kongtong's martial arts is complex, he does not have such skill."

"There's a spy in the door."
