Chapter 371 Card Pack

Chapter 371 Card Pack
No one in the temple answered.

Gu Qingyi was a little disappointed, but at this moment a voice sounded from behind her.

"Xingtong Escort Agency has arranged people to keep watch."

"Ah, really?" Gu Qingyi asked in surprise. She turned around and found that the person who spoke was Malu. "How did you know?"

"Because they are a security agency, they need to ensure the safety of the goods, so they will definitely be careful." Malu said.

"That's right." Gu Qingyi suddenly realized, and then praised, "You look stupid and don't even know how to play cards, but I didn't expect you to be smart sometimes."

"........."

Malu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Gu Qingyi looked at Shen Zhou again and said seriously, "Who is your night watchman? I want to talk to him."

Shen Zhou's eyes flashed with surprise, but he still pointed at Chen Er beside him and said, "He will be on guard in the second half of the night."

"Did you see He Qisheng go out?" Gu Qingyi asked Chen Er.

Chen Er hesitated for a moment and subconsciously looked at Shen Zhou. Gu Qingyi was very alert and immediately spoke again.

"Why are you looking at him when I ask you a question? Shen Zhou is the biggest suspect right now. If you can't produce evidence to prove his innocence, then he is the murderer of He Shaoxia."

Chen Er could only nod and say, "I see."

"Oh." Gu Qingyi perked up again, "Then did you see when he left? Who else went out after him?"

"Young Master He left three quarters ago. No one else left after him."

Chen Er's eyes flickered, and he added, "I think He Shaoxia was harmed by the bad guys outside."

Gu Qingyi frowned, "People outside, well, that's a possibility, does He Shaoxia have any enemies?"

Her last question was directed to the two disciples of Songxi School.

The two looked at each other. He Qisheng had a high aptitude for martial arts. Although the Songxi Sword School was not as good as the top schools like Shaolin and Wudang, it was still considered a local tyrant in Qingzhou.

He Qisheng was usually arrogant and domineering, and he had offended many people, but most of them were minor frictions. The two men could not imagine who would kill He Qisheng.

Besides, it was a remote place in the wilderness and the rain had not stopped yet. Who would run so far in the rain to kill someone and wait outside the temple until He Qisheng got up for the night?

In comparison, the two were more willing to believe that it was the people from Xingtong Escort Agency who killed He Qisheng.

After all, in this dilapidated temple, the only one capable of fighting with He Qisheng is Shen Zhou, and the two had a quarrel before.

This is also the reason why they are determined to attack Shen Zhou.

Ma Lu then suggested, "The other party may not be seeking revenge, but may be after money. Let's search He Qisheng's body."

"There's no need to chop off someone's head for money." Gu Qingyi shook her head. She still preferred to believe her previous judgment that this was a vendetta.

However, Malu's suggestion of a body search was not wrong. Gu Qingyi had originally planned to search as well, but as soon as she reached out and touched the corpse on the ground, she retracted her hand.

Although she had heard many detective stories, she had never actually been to the scene of the crime or searched a corpse because her father did not allow it. This was her first time.

He Qisheng had lost his head, and his body had been soaked in the rain for a while, so it was cold and wet and felt very bad to the touch.

"Detective Gu," Ma Lu's voice sounded again, "There's no need for you to do this kind of rough work. Let me do it for you. You just focus on solving the case and catching the murderer."

Gu Qingyi now likes Ma Lu more and more. After hearing what he said, he immediately stepped back and said, "Then you come."

Malu was overjoyed when he heard this. This was what he had been waiting for, or rather, this opportunity.

Because just now, the golden finger he had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived.

The extra function numbered 33 was actually activated by the corpse in front of him.

And for it to be effective, the millipede has to encounter a corpse.

However, the two disciples of Songxi Sword Sect would definitely not allow an outsider to desecrate the remains of their senior brother at will.

Malu was no match for them, so he had to find another way and team up with Gu Qingyi and temporarily act as Gu Qingyi's Yuan Fang.

No matter where Gu Qingyi's Tieyimen token came from, at least no one is questioning her identity as a divine detective now, and everyone still treats her as a divine detective.

Therefore, when they saw that she agreed to Malu's corpse search, the two disciples of Songxi Sword Sect frowned, but ultimately did not say anything to stop her.

The bet was right! As Malu's palm touched the corpse, a loading light bar appeared on the traveler's bracelet, which was a word "Wu".

Every time the millipede touches He Qisheng's body, a part of the word "Wu" will light up. Of course, it can also be left alone. This thing should light up when it touches, and the longer the touch lasts, the more parts will light up.

It wasn't until all the lights finally lit up that a new message popped up.

[Ding! The corpse was touched successfully. Congratulations on obtaining the Songxi Quick Sword card pack]

Millipede didn't have time to see what cards were in the card pack, so he focused on searching the corpse.

He first searched He Qisheng's headless body and placed the things he found on the ground.

It included a few taels of silver, more than thirty copper coins, a visiting card, and two small porcelain bottles. One of them should contain elixirs for practicing martial arts, and the other contained ordinary healing elixirs, which are considered must-haves for people in the martial arts world.

A handkerchief with a mandarin duck embroidered on the lower right corner. It seemed that its original owner was a woman. There were also some miscellaneous small items.

"Is it gone?" Gu Qingyi asked.

"That's all." Malu showed his hands to indicate that he had nothing to hide.

"This is impossible!" the tall and thin disciple blurted out.

"What's impossible?"

"Senior Brother He is carrying a gift from the head of the Beggars' Sect to the new leader. It is a 200-year-old ginseng!"

"Ah," Gu Qingyi muttered, "Could it be that he really guessed it right? It was a robbery?"

Old ginseng is very suitable for practicing internal energy. A two-hundred-year-old ginseng can be sold for at least three thousand taels of silver on the market, and there is no demand for it.

If someone knew that He Qisheng was carrying such valuable things on him, it would not be surprising that they would rob and kill him.

However, Malu's heart moved when he heard this, because when he scanned the nearby ingredients before, he did not see any valuable stuff like the century-old ginseng.

The most valuable item is the 2-star [Kidney-Strengthening Wolfberry], and Malu is very sure that He Qisheng is within the scanning range.

In other words, He Qisheng no longer had the century-old ginseng on him before he entered the temple, which made Malu vaguely guess something.

However, he felt that it was not worth it just for a hundred-year-old ginseng.

At this moment, the beautiful middle-aged woman suddenly said, "I, I...got up in the middle of the night to feed the baby, and I thought I saw Shen Biaotou also went out."
