Chapter 57

Ran Feize stayed in the yamen of Ning'an City for half a month.In the past half month, he turned all the places he could search upside down, but just like what Qin Butou said, except for the pool of blood, he didn't leave any clues in this matter.

Although Ran Feize released the news, no one came to him these days, and no one secretly sent him any news.Be it Cheng Jiangyi, Shensumen, or others who don’t know who they are, no one, no note, no item, nothing.It's as if no one has done anything to Su Xiaopei, no one wants to get anything from it, there has never been Su Xiaopei at all.

Ran Feize went to the branch of the Shensuanmen in Ning'an City, and entrusted them with the name of finding out about the disappearance of Su Xiaopei, the female master of the government office.If Shensuanmen really wanted to use this matter to blackmail him, then he really gave the other party a good chance, but Shensuanmen seemed to be completely innocent, and accepted the commission seriously, and replied to him five days later, It is said that they searched all over Ning'an City by the Divine Sect, but did not find any useful clues.In Ning'an City, there was no movement of Tibetans hiding corpses, and there was no trace of smuggling them out of the city.

Ran Feize asked again, has anyone heard of a young man surnamed Cheng, with short hair, a weird accent, bold ideas, who can write symbolic characters, who has appeared in Ning'an City or other places?

According to Ran Feize's thinking, if Su Xiaopei was robbed, his body would be controlled and he would not be able to make any movement, but Cheng Jiangyi, who was sneaky in writing and delivering letters, should not be able to completely cover his tracks.When Su Xiaopei was here before, he didn't consider entrusting the job search to Shensuanmen or other Jianghu gangs, just to avoid being involved in troubles in Jianghu.Given the status of the No. [-] intelligence organization of the Divine Suanmen, it would be too suspicious to find Su Xiaopei's trace, but also Cheng Jiangyi's.

In the end, the Shensuanmen replied that they knew that Ran Feize was looking for this person, but to their shame, no one had ever seen such a person even according to their Shensuanmen's connections and eyeliner.

The foreigner with obvious characteristics can't be found by the government and the big factions?How is this possible?So what exactly is Cheng Jiangyi capable of?
After hearing this, Ran Feize's face became very gloomy.The little hall master of the Divine Suanmen sect trembled and was polite: "Don't be suspicious, Daxia Ran. Our sect really intends to do good things for him. It's good to ask for favors like this. Let the hero clear up the grievances of my master uncle, but it is true No one has seen this Mr. Cheng, so I really can't help you."

Ran Feize stared at him for a long while, then asked, "I don't know what Ran did to get useful news?"

The Master of the Divine Calculation Sect was surprised, and bowed his head to salute: "Hero Ran, don't think so. My members of the Divine Calculation Sect have indeed tried their best to find out, but neither Miss Su nor Mr. Cheng has any news. Now the disciples of the sect have not let up. If we find any news, we will definitely tell the hero."

Ran Feize said nothing more, turned around and left.

After returning to Su Xiaopei's hut, he sat in the study and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't believe that Su Xiaopei was dead.He walked into the bedroom, looked at the bloodstains on the bed, and pondered again.Although the scene full of blood in this room is very scary, there are indeed too many doubts.After killing someone, the murderer should run away quickly, and there is no reason to take the risk of transporting the body away.What else could a dead body be worth to a murderer?If you want everyone to think that Su Xiaopei ran away and disappeared by himself, then what's the point of leaving a room full of blood?If the corpse is to be transported, the blood on the ground should also leave traces of dripping along the way.But the bloodstains were only in the house, not even bloody footprints were left.It stands to reason that the murderer took advantage of the deep sleep of the person on the bed to strike quickly, and left immediately after committing the crime, while the blood of the person on the bed slowly flowed all over the room.Afterwards, if someone wanted to move the corpse, they would have to step on a pool of blood to approach it, and the bloodstains on the ground would also leave traces.But nothing, why?
Ran Feize stared at the bed, and felt that the only way to explain it was to restrain Su Xiaopei first, then use a cover to make a human figure on the bed, splash blood as a warning, and then take the cover and Su Xiaopei away together.But who is it?For what purpose?This person must have done light work, he knows Su Xiaopei's details, and his thoughts are meticulous, he hides people very well after he is kidnapped, and he will cover up people's eyes and ears, and cover up the news.

what purpose?Ran Feize was still thinking, if the matter was aimed at him, he was already here, why didn't he show up and ask him for conditions?If it wasn't because of him, but because of Su Xiaopei's own troubles, then apart from the cases she had handled, there would be only Cheng Jiangyi. The people involved in the cases she had handled had been checked and there was nothing suspicious, but Cheng Jiangyi, he couldn't find out at all. .

Ran Feize's heart beat a little fast, he tried to calm himself down, and pondered over it carefully.At this time, Bai Yulang called outside the house: "Uncle Ran, are you there?"

Ran Feize went out and saw Bai Yulang leading a person standing outside the house. "Uncle Ran, this person said he was from the Xuanqing sect, and he has something to do with you."

Ran Feize nodded, he recognized this person.Ji Jiawen of the Xuanqing School.

Ji Jiawen still looked like an honest child. Seeing Ran Feize, he hurriedly saluted: "Hero Ran."

"What's the matter?"

"Master and senior brother asked me to come and help the hero."

Ran Feize looked at his expression and said, "Go inside and talk."

Bai Yulang probed his head, eager to hear, but Ji Jiawen looked defensive, and Ran Feize dismissed him.Bai Yulang, who thought he had been left out and neglected, was very dissatisfied. He left and muttered that Ji Jiawen crossed the river and demolished the bridge. He kicked him away when he found someone. He also said that Ran Feize was not righteous enough. There is no reason to dismiss such an enthusiastic person as him.

Ran Feize and Ji Jiawen heard his muttering and stared at his back until he disappeared before returning to the house.Ran Feize entered the door and looked back. Ji Jiawen looked at the half-open door with a look of concern. Seeing that Ran Feize was looking at him, Ji Jiawen hurriedly said, "Aren't you going to close the door?"

"Shut it up if you want." Ran Feize didn't care.

After hearing this, Ji Jiawen hurried over to close the door.Ran Feize went back to the room and sat down, shaking his head in his heart, the young man of today really has a lot of strange problems.If Su Xiaopei was here, he would probably find it interesting.

Ji Jiawen came in, without squinting, and stood upright.

"Sit down." Ran Feize waved his hand, Ji Jiawen thanked him, walked to the chair beside him, didn't sit down, but brought it over, placed it opposite to Ran Feize, placed the one directly opposite, and then sat down.

Ran Feize looked at his actions and laughed a little: "My little brother is very serious in his work. How long have you been in the Xuanqing Sect?"

"It's been almost a year." Ji Jiawen sat upright and answered seriously. "Because I'm a new face, I don't attract much attention, and I have met Ran Daxia, and Ran Daxia also recognizes me, so master and senior brother sent me here."

"What sent you here?"

"One is to see if Hero Ran needs help from my Xuanqing Sect, and the other is to report a letter to Hero Ran."

"What's the letter?"

"For breaking into the Linglong Formation, everyone is waiting for Hero Ran."

Ran Feize frowned: "I don't know when I became so important in the Jianghu. You Jianghu people handle your affairs, why don't you use me as an outsider?"

Ji Jiawen answered earnestly: "Brother Yuan discussed with Master, and Daxia Ran has something to do here. There are many experienced seniors who have entered the formation, and the Artifact Sect also sent people to help. It's okay, just go for the test. Everyone has already agreed, but the matter was discussed with Shenshumen, but Taoist Jiuling insisted that Hero Ran go with him. Ask him why, he said that he foretold his injustice A hexagram, what the hexagram says is that if you want to solve the mystery, you have to rely on the hands of a divine weapon. That's why he asked Ran Daxia to do the inspection of the traces, and it's the same for breaking through the Linglong Formation now."

Speaking of this, he paused, glanced at Ran Feize, and continued: "This is a bit mysterious, although Taoist Jiuling's hexagrams are always accurate, but the big guy is unwilling to follow, I'm afraid he has other plans , so he replied that two disciples of the Divine Artifact Sect also joined the battle, which was not different from what he asked for. But Daoist Jiuling said that in his case, the Hand of the Divine Artifact only recognized Ran Feize, and the Divine Artifact Sect only had the name of the Divine Artifact. .”

Ran Feize smiled: "Master Jiuling really knows people with his eyes."

Ji Jiawen straightened his face and disagreed in his heart. The point of what he said was not at all that Taoist Jiuling praised Ran Feize as a master of magic weapons, okay?There are so many mysteries in it, did he not understand at all?
Ran Feize looked at his expression, and smiled again: "Taoist Jiuling's move is really good. If everyone doesn't follow him, it seems that they will deliberately play tricks to prevent him from appealing the injustice case. But if they follow him, I will help him delay the time unintentionally. If he wants to do something, he will have the time to do it. Besides, what he said angered the Divine Artifact Sect and his group of helpers. No matter whether I get involved in this matter, they will be quite resistant. Not good, there is an internal dispute, and the Divine Suanmen can take advantage of it."

It turned out that Ran Feize understood, Ji Jiawen hurriedly nodded: "That's true. Wouldn't it be nice if Taoist Nine Ling's words immediately caused a commotion. If you let the heroes go with you, it seems that you don't give face to the gods. If the hero is not allowed to go, Master Nine Bells will have an excuse to say. The meaning of the master is that he still hopes to act frankly and teach the real murderer to confess his guilt, instead of holding on to his own arguments with doubts and causing chaos in the world. It is a catastrophe to be killed."

Ran Feize nodded, Jiang Weiying is indeed such a kind person. "Sect Leader Jiang's good intentions must be understood by all the sects in Jianghu."

"The head of the sect lobbied from all parties, and now it has finally persuaded all sects to be stable. Although many people are suspicious of Master Jiuling's insistence on bringing heroes into the game, Master also said that Master Jiuling decided to If Ran Daxia is to test the blade marks, Ran Daxia is not partial to either party, he is fair and strict, and has never cheated. And if Master Nine Bells is not the murderer, his hexagrams are accurate, and it is not a bad thing for Ran Daxia and Shenqimen to enter the game. Besides, there are so many people in the Linglong Formation, as long as they are careful every step of the way, Taoist Jiuling can't do anything."

"So the big guys are waiting for me now?"

"Exactly."

Ran Feize was silent, what was the intention of Taoist Jiuling?Is Su Xiaopei really in his hands, and is he really planning to use her to blackmail him?But why didn't he tell himself clearly, with such twists and turns, even if he warns, it can't prove that he really has the conditions to blackmail him.Did he mean this when he said, "The romance has come, but it's so dangerous"?Did he go out of his way to hint at threats or were they just overthinking, Taoist Jiuling was just always annoying?
At this time, Ji Jiawen said again: "Senior brother and master told me about Taoist Master Jiu Ling's words to warn Daxia Ran, but now I don't know whether it is true or not, or he is playing tricks to make people confused, so master and senior brother asked me to come here first and explain the matter Make it clear with the hero, and then see if there is any trouble on the hero's side, and my Xuanqing faction will do my best to help."

"The trouble is not small, and it will not be resolved for a while, and your Xuanqing faction may not be able to help."

Ji Jiawen frowned, and asked: "It's the missing girl, haven't you found it yet?"

Ran Feize nodded.

"The house Liulang said that day was full of blood. Could it be that the girl is still alive?"

Ran Feize glanced over, Ji Jiawen closed his mouth, and then he said without giving up: "Why don't heroes come with us to inspect the Linglong Formation first, and see what Taoist Jiuling's intentions are. Maybe we can find new clues Maybe."

Ran Feize thought for a while: "I also have the intention, but I have to think about the priority of the matter. I will wait for the news first and make a decision in a few days."

"Okay." Ji Jiawen nodded without urging him.

Ran Feize looked at him and explained: "When you are here, the Divine Fortune Sect must have got the news. If they really want to threaten me, I will go with you in a hurry, fearing that it will be in their favor. I'll wait, If they are in a hurry, it is easy for them to show their feet."

Ji Jiawen nodded, and replied: "The hero is right, I understand."

Ran Feize didn't speak. In fact, what he was more afraid of was that the Divine Fortune Sect had no intention of blackmailing him. What was even more afraid was that the Taoist Jiuling was really acting according to the hexagram, and he didn't know Su Xiaopei's whereabouts at all. What was even more afraid was that... Shaking his head, it's useless to be afraid, so he has to play by ear.
