Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 509 Underground
At this time, the battle in the underground hall was basically over, and most of the dozen or so black-robed men were killed.

Li Lang led several Qianniuwei to escort a captured black-robed warrior to Di Renjie.

Li Lang shouted, "Kneel down!"

The black-robed warrior sneered and said, "A dignified man, he would rather die standing up than live on his knees!"

As he spoke, he clenched his teeth hard.

Di Renjie exclaimed, "No, he's going to commit suicide..."

Before he finished speaking, a trace of black blood flowed down the corner of the black-robed warrior's mouth, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

Di Renjie took a step forward, leaned over to open his upper jaw, and took out a red pill from between his teeth.

Zeng Tai said in surprise: "Poison!"

Di Renjie let out a long sigh: "What a powerful Black Clothes Club!"

After speaking, he stood up and turned around, "Li Lang, order the guards to open the boxes on the cart!"

Li Lang agreed loudly, and led the guards to open the wooden box on the cart.

There are hundreds of silver ingots neatly stacked inside.

Zeng Tai was overjoyed immediately, and kept walking between the silver carts, looking at this box and then that box, and finally, he shouted ecstatically: "Master, five million taels of silver is a lot of money, and it's all here." Here it is!"

Di Renjie also had a triumphant smile on his face.

Zeng Tai walked up to Di Renjie and said happily: "Master, you are really amazing. How did you think that the salary is in the old castle? And how did you think that there is a floor under the underground hall?"

Di Renjie smiled and said: "Do you still remember why we decided to shake the mountain and shake the tiger, alarming the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe?

Wang Qiang was responsible for the transfer of the payment, so she must know the whereabouts of the payment.

He will definitely go to check it secretly, or use the salary to do some secret business.

So as long as we follow the Wang brothers or Fang Zhe, we will be able to find the whereabouts of the money. "

Zeng Tai suddenly realized: "I understand, the so-called shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger is to make them feel the danger and move first."

Di Renjie nodded and said: "Exactly. Wang Qiang is responsible for the arrangement and concealment of the salary. Once he feels that his identity is exposed and danger is at hand, then his first reaction is to transfer the salary to a safer place." , and then hide it by myself. This is what I mean by knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger."

Zeng Tai asked again: "Then how did you think that the salary is in the castle?"

Di Renjie smiled and said: "Zeng Tai, I'm not a god, I can't predict things in advance when there are no clues.

When the Wang brothers led the team out of the city, I just vaguely felt that they might go to the hiding place of the money, but I didn't expect them to come to the castle.

When I heard the news that they had arrived at the castle, I had doubts for a while, whether they went out of the city for money or for other purposes.

However, just now, when I was looking for the whereabouts of the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe, I suddenly thought of some things we had experienced. "

Zeng Tai hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Di Renjie said: "Do you still remember the night when the two of us led the army to clear the castle?"

Zeng Tai said, "Of course I remember."

Di Renjie said: "At that time we discovered the news room, opened the big tunnel leading to the 'Valley of Death', and found many ruts on the ground of the tunnel, so we chased along the ruts, and arrived at the 'Valley of Death' early the next morning. '.

That's when the ruts disappeared and all traces disappeared. "

Zeng Tai thought back: "Not bad."

Di Renjie said: "I was very confused at the time, why did these people drive hundreds of silver carts into the tunnel, but did not enter the 'Mountain of Darkness' through the secret door of the 'Valley of Death'?

Through the conversation with Wei'er that night, I felt that this matter was very strange.I have a faint feeling that we must have overlooked something in the basement of the castle. "

Zeng Tai said: "Then teacher, what have we overlooked?"

Di Renjie smiled and said, "The rut."

Zeng Tai became more and more puzzled: "A rut, another rut?"

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes. At that time, we only thought that the ruts were moving along the tunnel, but we didn't think that these ruts could also be left when they drove the silver car back to the underground hall."

Zeng Tai was very puzzled, and looked at Di Renjie puzzled: "Hurry back to the underground hall? The students are confused."

Di Renjie explained: "It means that they drive the silver car into the tunnel first, and then drive the silver car back to the castle after reaching the 'Valley of Death'."

Zeng Tai still didn't understand: "But, why?"

Di Renjie said: "The most dangerous place is the safest. Yuan Fang and Jing Yang, I, and I explored the castle and found the silver car. This made Wang Qiang think that we might come back again. To be on the safe side, they set up a maze , first drove the silver car into the tunnel to the 'Valley of Death', making us think that they had transported the money out of the castle and disappeared. Then they drove the silver car back and hid it in On the second floor of the underground hall."

"What a clever trick."

Zeng Tai finally understood.

"After the second visit to the castle, I thought more than once: No matter how to transfer such a huge amount of money, it will be a huge target. What kind of method did the gangsters of the Black Clothes Society use to make it disappear without anyone noticing it?" Evaporated in the world, and, without revealing any flaws? Finally, this time we found the answer."

"Then how did you find out that there is another floor under the underground hall?"

Di Renjie laughed: "It's very simple, the ground."

Zeng Tai was stunned again: "The ground?"

Di Renjie nodded: "Exactly. Yuan Fang and I explored the castle, and when we entered the underground hall, we saw that the ground of the underground hall was made of solid soil.

But just now I accidentally lowered my head and discovered that the original rammed earth floor has now been paved with limestone.

From this, I deduced that there must be another floor under the underground hall, where Xingyin, Wang brothers and Fang Zhe were dormant and waiting. "

Zeng Tai breathed a sigh of relief, and said sincerely: "There is only one mentor in the world who can do such a complicated reasoning."

Di Renjie said with a smile: "This statement is a bit exaggerated. I said a long time ago that reasonable inferences come from careful observation and careful thinking. As long as they can do these two points, anyone can make accurate inferences."

Zeng Tai laughed and said, "It's true that there are too few people who can do these two things."

"grown ups!"

Li Yuanfang's cry came from outside, Di Renjie and Zeng Tai turned their heads, and saw Li Yuanfang and Zhang Huan leading Qianniuwei back from the original road.

Di Renjie hurried forward to meet him: "How about it, have you caught it?"

Li Yuanfang shook his head in frustration and said: "My lord, after entering the secret passage, these three thieves turned around and disappeared in a short while. Zhang Huan and I led people to search the entire secret passage, but found nothing. "

Di Renjie nodded: "I thought about it. The old castle is Wang Qiang's lair, and he is the most familiar with every mechanism and secret passage here. As long as he is allowed to escape through the secret door, it will be difficult to talk about the matter."

Li Yuanfang said with shame: "I am incompetent."
