Chapter 263
Chapter 263
Xia Xinran saw that Xiao Wuji was soft and hard and did not eat, so angry that he almost broke his back teeth, and scolded in a low voice: “Xiao Wuji, don’t be proud, this matter will not be settled by the county lord like this.” ”
“Hmph.”
Xia Xinran snorted coldly and left in a huff.
Soon after, there was a loud roar outside.
“Abominable! Damn it! It’s abominable! ”
“Xiao Wuji, the county lord will not give up.”
“This case, the county lord has investigated!”
At the gate of Qianfu, Xia Xinran cursed in anger, and kicked his subordinates into the air.
His subordinates were very aggrieved, “County Lord, it’s Xiao Qianhu who is angry with you, why are you beating me?” ”
Xia huffed huffingly: “I can’t beat him, of course, I can only hit you.” ”
At this time, a beautiful woman walked to Xia Xinran’s side and said in a low voice: “County Lord, it is best for the County Lord not to interfere in this case.” ”
This beautiful woman is Xia Xinran’s guard, a grandmaster powerhouse, and Xia Yuanxiang sent to protect Xia Xinran closely.
Xia Xinran frowned and asked, “Why?” ”
The beautiful woman said: “This case is not simple, if the county owner intervenes, I am afraid that he will be implicated.” ”
The beautiful woman is well-informed, and I don’t know how much richer her experience in rivers and lakes is than Xia Xinran.
When Xia Xinran took someone to check the scene of Qianfu, she also saw it.
Through the death of many corpses and the number of corpses, the beautiful woman can determine that what destroyed the Qian Mansion was a huge force, and there were many murderers.
There are very few people who can have this kind of power in Jinling City, and each of them is not small.
Coupled with the fact that it was Xiao Wouji who personally investigated the case, and the emperor’s personal will, it proved that this case was more terrifying than they thought.
If you are involved in it, it is likely to affect yourself.
Although she is a strong Grandmaster, she does not dare to guarantee that she can keep Xia Xinran.
Xia Xinran said with a solemn face: “Could it be that those people still dare to kill the county lord?” ”
“This possibility cannot be ruled out.”
The beautiful woman said in a deep voice: “The county master knows that there are many unscrupulous murderers in the rivers and lakes. ”
“They don’t care about the identity of the county owner, and once it is profitable, they will not hesitate to kill the county owner.”
“Just like that golden-faced lion king, even the Li Mansion dares to be bloodbathed, and even the royal palace dares to break into.”
“Li Wenbo was also killed while hiding in the palace.”
“County Lord, for your own safety, do not act recklessly.”
Xia Xinran rolled his eyes and shook his head: “No, this is my first big case, and I must not just settle it.” ”
“I 540 must check it out to see who else dares to underestimate me.”
“Go, let’s go back to the six doors, Uncle Xuanyuan must know the inside story.”
After that, Xia Xinran hurried back to the six doors.
Seeing this, the beautiful woman shook her head helplessly.
Xia Xinran is good at everything, but his reckless personality can’t be changed.
It is clear that the strength is weak and pitiful, but he likes to do chivalry and righteousness, and he shouts all day long to eliminate harm for the people.
The appearance of this newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers was really similar to those young disciples sent by the martial arts sect.
It’s just that Xia Xinran is not a martial artist after all, she is the honor of the county lord, and her status is precious.
If Xia Xinran had a good villain, how could Xia Yuanxiang spare her as a guard?
The beautiful woman thought about it and quickly followed.
In the Qian Mansion, many Jinyiwei took over the work of catching fast at six doors.
They carried the corpses out of the various rooms and placed them neatly in the courtyard.
Xiao Wouji walked into a room, looked up, and saw two corpses hanging from the beam.
The two corpses, a man and a woman, were both subordinates of Qian Mansion, and both were hung on the beams after death.
More than a hundred people from Qian Mansion were killed, and their bodies were all hung from the beams of the houses.
That terrifying scene can even scare a person into a madman.
After Song Limin and many brocade guards saw the murder scene, they couldn’t help but shake their heads and marvel at the ruthlessness of the murderer.
This is another warning!
Xiao Wuji had already sent people to the mansions of the other two deceased, and if Xiao Wouji guessed correctly, the mansions of those two officials had also been washed in blood.
The poisoning of Qian Qianyi and three other officials was the first warning, and the bloodbath of three officials was the second warning.
The purpose is to warn those who investigate the case not to continue the investigation.
Otherwise, not only will I die, but the whole family will have no way to live.
“It’s really daring, it’s even more arrogant than me.”
Xiao Wu (bhfd) looked at the corpses in the courtyard and felt some feelings in his heart.
Like incarnating as the golden-faced lion king, he only destroyed one mansion in an instant.
This secret person actually destroyed three families in one night, isn’t it even more arrogant than him?
“Lord Qiyu, the corpses are all here, a total of one hundred and forty-seven.”
Song Limin came behind Xiao Wuji and said respectfully.
“Did you find any useful clues?”
Xiao Wou-ki asked.
“Nope.”
Song Limin shook his head and looked helpless, “Nothing but corpses or corpses.” ”
“We checked Qian Qianyi’s study, and his study has been emptied, and there is not a single piece of paper left.”
“What about the Chamber of Secrets? Didn’t find the Chamber of Secrets? ”
“Nope.”
“Is it true that nothing has been achieved?”
“Didn’t Qian Qianyi leave a way back for himself?”
Xiao Wuji frowned slightly.
“Go see again.”
Xiao Wuji came to Qian Qianyi’s study.
On the shelves in the study, the desk was empty.
As Song Limin said, the study has been emptied.
At the same time that the murderer was extinguished, he emptied all the books in the study.
In this way, even if Qian Qianyi left something suspicious, it would have already been taken away by them.
“These officials are all old foxes, and Qian Qianyi can’t leave nothing behind.”
“Reselling ordnance is a major sin against the Nine Tribes, and if this official is Qian Qianyi, he will definitely stay behind.”
“Whether it is for self-preservation or to atone for sins, there will be some clues left.”
Xiao Wuji’s cold eyes swept around the study, not missing any clues.
Song Limin led people to search in the study, all the walls were knocked, and every floor tile was knocked over, looking for possible secret rooms or secret compartments.
But in the end, nothing came of it.
“Is there really none?”
Just as Xiao Wuji was about to give up, a touch of Yangguan suddenly passed over Xiao Wuji’s eyes.
That sunlight was very dazzling, making Xiao Wuji couldn’t help but squint his eyes.
Looking at the light, Xiao Wouji saw that there was actually a hole in the ceiling above his head.
The hole was small, half the size of a baby’s finger.
The sunlight shines into the room through that little hole.
“Qian Qianyi is also a minister of the fifth rank of the imperial court, how come there will be a hole in the ceiling of the study, are you not afraid of rain?”
Song Limin was puzzled.
Xiao Wouji smiled and said, “Maybe this is the clue that Qian Qianyi left us, you go up and take a look.” ”
“Yes.”
Song Limin walked out of the study, performed a light skill, flew to the roof, and found the small hole. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
This small hole was made with a special technique, which used some mechanical principles.
Although small holes exist, rainwater does not flow into the study from small holes.
Looking through the small hole, there is no panorama of the inside of the study at all, only a candlestick.
“Candlestick?”
Xiao Wou-ki immediately found the candlestick.
The candlestick is plain, wrapped in a thick layer of wax throughout, as if it has been used for many years.
Other than that, it’s no different from ordinary candlesticks.
There is neither a mezzanine nor any lettering.
But Xiao Wouji knew that Qian Qianyi left a small hole to hint at the candlestick, which definitely had a deep meaning.
Xiao Wuji exercised in his palm and peeled off all the wax on the surface of the candlestick.
Sure enough, something was found on it.
Not lettering, but a pattern.
It was a small scorpion, carved with a knife one by one, and it was beautifully carved.
Xiao Wuji knew that Qian Qianyi himself was a porcelain engraving enthusiast, and his own porcelain engraving skills were not weak.
I think this scorpion was carved on the candlestick by Qian Qianyi himself.
After carving the scorpion, cover it with wax wrapping and hide it.
Just put it in the clear, others will not care at all.
Unless through the small hole in the roof, outsiders will not feel that there is anything special about this candlestick.
Even if the thief sets fire to the study, the candlestick will survive.
And the fire will burn the wax, but will reveal the scorpion on it.
In any case, this clue can be preserved.
“These officials in the imperial court are really all old foxes.”
Xiao Wouji sneered twice, handed the candlestick to his subordinates, and asked them to take it back to Beizhen Fusi to seal it.
In the entire Qian Mansion, perhaps only this one candlestick is useful.
And when Xiao Wouji saw that scorpion, he always felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
“Go, go back to Beizhen Fusi.”
Subsequently, Xiao Wouji left half of the people in the Qian Mansion to continue to explore to see if there were any clues missing.
He himself brought people back to Beizhen Fusi.
Back in Beizhen Fusi, Xiao Wouji went to the archive room for the first time.
According to some memories in his mind, Xiao Wuji flipped through more than a dozen files and finally found the scorpion.
“He’s right.”
Xiao Wou-ki opened a file and pulled out a piece of brown paper from the file.
I saw a scorpion drawn on the vellum.
This scorpion is exactly the same as the one left by Qian Qianyi.
“This is the sign of the poisonous scorpion gate.”
The Poisonous Scorpion Sect is an evil sect outside Mobei Cyprus.
Because it is far away from the Central Plains, the various gates of the Central Plains do not know much about the poisonous scorpion gate.
Jinyiwei’s information about the poisonous scorpion gate is also limited.
People who only know about poisonous scorpion doors will have a scorpion tattoo on their bodies.
The disciples of the Poisonous Scorpion Sect are good at poison skills, and they are also proficient in the art of practicing deception.
And for many years, the poisonous scorpion gate has acted low-key, has not set off any big storms in the rivers and lakes, and has not made any famous figures.
The information of the poisonous scorpion gate in Xiao Wuji’s hands was still preserved twenty-three years ago.
At that time, a traitor of the poisonous scorpion gate fled into the Central Plains, causing a series of bloody cases, and was finally arrested by a hundred households of Jinyiwei.
This file records the traitor of the poisonous scorpion gate back then.
“A Mobei Cypriot Outer Sect, how did he come to Jinling City? Also related to the resale of ordnance case? ”
Xiao Wou-ki fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, I thought that Fan Dafan Er was also a person outside Mobei.
“It is no coincidence that these two forces come from outside Serbia.”
“Maybe the real culprit behind the scenes is to use people outside Mobei to confuse the public, so as to reduce the suspicion on his own body.”
Xiao Wou-ki quickly guessed the truth.
“Sir, Yuan Qianhu has a request.”
At this time, Song Limin walked into the archive room and respectfully reported the report.
Xiao Wuji nodded slightly, “This official knows, go immediately.” ”
Putting the file back in its place, Xiao Wuji rushed to Yuan Xiong’s thousand households.
In the middle hall of the Thousand Households House, Yuan Xiong sat in the main seat, and Yang Zongping sat on the right side.
“Third brother, I’m coming.”
Xiao Wuji said to Yuan Xiong, while nodding to Yang Zongping.
“Sit down.”
Yuan Xiongdao.
“What clues did you find?”
Xiao Wouji said, “Three officials of the Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau have been killed, and it can be determined that they are extinguished. ”
“I went to Qian Qianyi’s mansion and found that Qian Qianyi’s mansion had been destroyed, and the mansions of the other two officials were also washed in blood, and it can be determined that they were all murderous people.”
“!”
Yuan Xiong was furious, slapped his palm on the tea table, and slapped the teapot and tea bowl over.
“These people are really daring, they actually dare to wantonly kill court officials in Jinling City, and destroy people, how can it be so reasonable!”
Yuan Xiong’s eyes were red and bloodshot, and he was obviously angry.
Xiao Wuji said: “The third brother was angry first, although they destroyed the money and overflowed the door and did it very cleanly, the younger brother still found the clue.” ”
“Oh? What is it? Say it. ”
Yuan Xiong turned worry into joy.
“This is it.”
Xiao Wuji took out the brown paper and handed it to Yuan Xiong.
Yuan Xiong took the brown paper, and Yang Zongping also leaned over his head to look at it.
“What is it?”
Yuan Xiong and Yang Zongping were puzzled.
This can’t blame them, the poisonous scorpion gate file is an old case from twenty-three years ago.
Yuan Xiong and Yang Zongping may not have been in contact.
Even if they have seen it, they do not have the ability to forget it, maybe they have forgotten it long ago.
Xiao Wouji explained: “This is the symbol of the poisonous scorpion gate outside Mobei Cyprus, and it is also the clue left by Qian Qianyi. ”
“I think that the one who destroyed Qian Qianyi’s entire clan is the person of the poisonous scorpion gate.”
“Scorpion Gate? A sect outside Mobei Cyprus? ”
“Fan Da, Fan Er, aren’t they also people from outside Mobei Cyprus?”
Yuan Xiong and Yang Zongping also thought of this.
“That’s right, I think the poisonous scorpion gate has become a killing tool among the real murderers behind the scenes.”
Xiao Wouji said: “Qian Qianyi, like Fan Dafan Er, may have only been threatened to participate in the resale of weapons. ”
“They don’t know who is behind the reselling of weapons, but Qian Qianyi may have seen the mark of the poisonous scorpion gate in contact with the messenger and wrote it down.”
