A stream of light on the horizon fell outside the city. Not long after, Gu Changan came slowly and moved towards the city gate of Fucheng.

At this time, it was already bright, or in the morning, with a bit of icy cold wind.

The snow hasn’t melted yet, and there is ice on the treetops.

The city gate is guarded by soldiers, checking the past pedestrian caravans. There are many people lining up outside the city, all dressed in cotton-padded jackets, wrapped tightly, standing in the cold wind waiting to enter the city.

Seeing Gu Changan approaching, wearing a thin robes and big sleeves, he didn’t seem to feel the slightest cold, all of them were dumbfounded.

Gu Changan did not line up, but went straight to the city gate to enter the city.

Seeing Gu Changan’s demeanor, the guarding soldier was shocked for a while. At this time, a soldier who looked like the leader stepped forward and respectfully said: “This Young Master is a martial artist or cultivator? “

Gu Changan slightly nodded.

Seeing the acceptance, the guard immediately became more respectful and hurriedly said: “Martial artist can avoid the line when entering the city…Young Master, please come in!”

“By the way, if it is Young Master The first time you come to Fucheng, you can go to the south of the city. There are streets and squares in the city specially opened for martial artists and cultivators. If Young Master is interested, you can go shopping.”

Waved his hand to let the soldiers clear the way and welcome Gu Changan in.

Listening to this, Gu Changan glanced at him, but didn’t say much, and went straight in.

Just annihilated a stronghold in Yellow Springs Sect, Gu Changan felt a little relaxed, although there is still a Grandmaster Realm 7-layer Pavilion Lord from Yellow Springs Sect stationed here, watching him. But this is not what he can deal with now.

Worry about this, but that’s all.

Furthermore, in Gu Changans view, it is not him who is most worried now, but the Pavilion Lord, the Yellow Springs Sect disciple of Chentang County, almost caught everything in one net by him, This Pavilion Lord probably doesn’t have many people on his hands now, and he should be devastated now.

There are only two roads before the Pavilion Lord.

Either be frenzied and furious, take the initiative to come to the city and attack the thousands of households.

Either report back to the sect and ask the sect to send someone to come for reinforcements and do another way.

Apart from this, there is no other possibility.

In Gu Changan’s view, now that the Pavilion Lord has arrived at the Grandmaster Realm 7th cultivation base, at least he is not a fool. If he wants to come, he should not dare to come and attack Qianhushao

Since the establishment of the Xuanjing Department, looking at the 13 states of Great Yan, there has never been a force and sect who dared to blatantly confront the Xuanjing Department!

After all, Xuanjing Department is backed by the Great Yan Imperial Court and dare to attack. This is a rebellion!

Yellow Springs Sect was wiped out by the Xuanjing Department and many sects 300 years ago, but it has never been labeled as rebellious and rebellious.

It is precisely because of this that they can develop secretly and recruit discipline. Otherwise, once they are labeled as treason, even if they develop secretly, who dares to enter Yellow Springs Sect these years?

These thoughts flashed in my mind, Gu Changan slightly smiled and dissipated them.

I walked into the city immediately, and did not immediately return to the Qianhusuo, but walked on the street.

Since he came here, he has never taken a closer look at the customs and customs of his jurisdiction. In the past, he went to local counties to clear away the Demon ghosts.

Only then can I really find some leisure.

I walked all the way, looking at the left and right, but at this moment, suddenly eyebrow raised, it seemed that I saw something.

Quickly step forward and walk to the teahouse at an intersection.

This teahouse is facing the road to build a shed. At this time, it is winter, and the cold wind is blowing, and most of them are unwilling to come out, so there are not at all people in the teahouse shed.

Only two people are sitting at the table, looking at somewhere with sly eyes.

“What are you two doing here?”

Gu Changan asked aloud, sitting in a chair.

“Aiya.”

Hearing the voice, the two subconsciously followed the prestige. When they saw Gu Changan, they jumped up and said quickly, “Gu Qianhu ( An boy) Why are you here?”

These two people are Gu Little Liu and Guo Xiaosi.

“Go shopping…”

Gu Changan didn’t get too entangled in this topic, but asked: “You came here just now, what are you looking at?”

As soon as I heard this, a mysterious look appeared on the faces of the two of them. They couldn’t help but glance at each other and said: “Watching a play… It’s a big play!”

“oh? “

Gu Changan is also interested.

Sitting on the table, calling the Boss for a new pot of tea, he immediately turned his eyes to the direction where the two were looking.

But there is an alley, facing the street, with a table, behind the table sits an Old Daoist Priest wearing a daoist robe, which looks like divine poise and sagelike features, hanging beside it There is a sign: Mogu, Divine Prediction.

Gu Changan can see that this Old Daoist Priest is not a martial artist, nor is it a cultivator. He has no Qi and Blood Magic Power.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is a young man standing in front of the stall.

He looks like more than 20 years old, looks delicate and pretty, and has a refined temperament, like a Scholar.

In fact, he is indeed a Scholar, Gu Changan felt a trace of righteousness in him-this is a pure seed of reading.

At this time, the seed of reading was standing in front of the fortune teller’s booth, and he walked over, with a hesitant look on his face.

His appearance, a discerning person knew at a glance that he wanted to ask fortune-telling, but he was suspiciousthe fortune-teller had been sitting in jeopardy for a long time, waiting for the young man to take the bait.

Just waited and waited, Gu Changan drank half of a cup of tea. The fortune-teller had a headache sitting on his back, and he did not see the young man making up his mind.

At the end, it was clenched the teeth and turned away.

“This…”

The fortune teller was immediately dumbfounded, looking messy in the wind.

And Gu Changan couldn’t help but laugh, and couldn’t help but shook his head and laughed-he could see that there was indeed something uncertain in this young man’s heart, but…

If it’s just that simple, why would Gu Little Liu and Guo Xiaosi these two people get together and watch the show here?

Although these two people usually mix well, they are never lazy during the cultivation. Now these two people have left the cultivation and ran here. Obviously, this matter has a follow-up.

It is definitely a big show.

Sure enough, under Gu Changan’s gaze, the young man left here and walked into the street. About two hundred steps, he walked to a house.

When he was about to open the door, two catchers with waist blades also came over.

“Are you Yu Chunxi?”

One of the older catchers asked aloud.

“I, I am Yu Chunxi.”

as the saying goes County Magistrate of the broken home, the man of extinguish sect.

The county prince and the palace prince certainly hold the power of life and death, but for the small people of Shengdou, they are all great characters, and they cannot touch them.

But those humble and powerful little officials have a great deterrent to them.

A trifling can destroy an ordinary family.

Not to mention the arresting officials who have arrested and worked hard?

This young man is just the Scholar of the ordinary person’s family. Seeing two catchers coming soon, he was suddenly nervous and stammered. He said nervously, “Two, two bad guys, I dont know why you are looking for me?”

“Yu Chunxi, right?”

The elder arrester took the lead and said: “A certain family’s surname is Liu. The head of the inspection department, don’t be nervous. I came to you this time just to ask you something.”

Listening to this, the young man named Yu Chunxi hurriedly saluted.

Then he squatted and said, “Liu, Bantou Liu, and the bad guy, the weather outside is cold, why don’t you come to the humble house and sit in the room?”

“You don’t have to enter the house!”

Baantou Liu waved his hand and said: “In fact, this time, I just want to find something…”

At this moment, the wooden door of the yard was suddenly opened with a creak, and then a beautiful young woman walked out.

Although she faces the sky, she can’t hide the delicate and pretty beauty.

At this time, there is a smile on his face, and one hand is dragging his belly-the belly is round, it is obvious that he is pregnant, and the time is not short.

“Madam, why did you come out…Hurry up and enter the house, its so cold outside, what should I do if its frozen!”

Seeing this woman, Yu Chunxi panicked immediately , Asked quickly with concern.

“Your servant is okay. I just took a rest inside. I heard a voice outside. I thought it was Husband. You are back… How are these two servants…”

With a look of questioning in the middle, some Shengdou minions were nervous and nervous when they saw the officials.

“Its okay, its just some small things.”

Yu Chunxi helped her wife, and then looked towards Liu Bantou, with smiles on their faces, and said: “Two If you have anything to say, please tell me directly. My wife has been weak since childhood and is about to give birth…”

“The matter will be over soon, so dont worry about Young Master.”

Bantou Liu waved his hand and signaled Yu Chunxi to don’t be impatient, and then said: “In fact, this time, we mainly have some questions that I want to ask the lady to answer.”

“This matter… is related to a murder case!”

Baantou Liu is a husband. He has always been straightforward, and now he is straight to the point.

“The murder case?!”

Yu Chunxi heard it, and the complexion was greatly changed.

In fact, for an ordinary person, there is no fear of hearing about a murder.

I immediately shouted: “Baantou Liu, my wife is pregnant, how can it be related to the murder… Dont be silly!”

Although it is very difficult to face arrest I was afraid, but thinking that my wife was involved in the’homicide case’, some courage emerged in my heart, said solemnly: “This matter, this matter is absolutely impossible!”

“Yu Young Master misunderstood…”

Baantou Liu said: “This Liu didn’t say that Mrs. Zun killed the person.”

Yu Chunxi was a little relieved, but then he had questions: “In that case, Again, why did Liu Bantou come to see my woman?”

Liu Bantou did not answer Yu Chunxi’s words this time, but instead set his gaze on the woman’s face, said solemnly:” In fact, the real murderer had already been caught by us the day before yesterday!”

“en?”

Yu Chunxi suddenly appeared suspicious, and seemed to want to follow up.

Dont say its Yu Chunxi. Gu Changan, who is listening attentively at this time, is also a little confused. Although he is separated by more than two hundred meters, he still listens to his ears. Got to be clear.

At this time, I was naturally quite curious.

At this moment, Bantou Liu waved his hand to interrupt Yu Chunxi, who wanted to follow up, and said: “Yu Young Master, don’t worry, let me tell you this matter slowly. “

“After the murderer was caught by us, we thought it was just a rogue. He brought it back to the yamen and planned to give a lesson after a routine cross-examination, but who knew this cross-examination, but inadvertently asked one Great murder!”

“That was six months ago…”

Early May summer.

It’s already night, but suddenly thunder is exploded, wind and rain are pouring down.

A dozen or more li villages and towns outside the Chentang County Mansion, a land ruffian encountered heavy rain on the way back to the city. In order to avoid the rain, he inadvertently walked to a remote mountain temple. In the end, I saw a woman hiding from the rain in the temple.

The ruffians in this place entered the temple to hide from the rain. There was no other thief in the first place. Even if they did, they were not so courageous.

But who knows sitting in the temple to hide from the rain, listening to the wind and rain and thunder outside, a bold idea gradually grew in the heart of the ruffian.

He can’t remember the specific details. He only knows that when he is in a daze, he sees the woman resisting death and constantly struggling to beg for mercy.

“Please, let me go…I still have a child, and a child…no, don’t…”

The ruffian was still manageable then This, he was already in a daze. It was obvious that the woman was struggling constantly, and he didn’t know whether it was a wrong hand or panic. He actually fumbled and touched a sharp object and moved towards the woman and pierced somewhere on her body.

The woman screamed, blood flowed, and at the same time, she staggered and fled outside.

I dont know if its because I saw the smell of blood or I was afraid that the woman would report to the officials. Stabbed a few times.

Where the thorn is, the ruffian can’t tell where it is.

That night, he was in a trance for some reason. With the addition of wind and rain outside, the sky was swaying and dim, so he only saw the woman fall to the ground. With the occasional lightning, it was vaguely visible that the blood was soaked soon. A large area on the wet ground.

He is finally afraid!

Destroyed moved towards running outside, not even wind and rain.

To tell you the truth, although he is a rogue, he is usually nothing more than stealing a chicken and petting a dog. It’s amazing, that is, knocking on the widow door at night-a major event like murder, giving him a hundred courage. Dare not!

After running out, the ruffian ran back to his own home.

The ground ruffian got caught in the rain that day, caught a cold, and was ill in bed for two or three days. During this period, I was always worried for fear that someone would come to arrest him, so I went back to the temple after he recovered. destroy the corpse and evidence.

But who knows that when he went back, he simply didn’t see the corpse, only a pool of blood.

The ruffian thought that the body was found, so he was so scared that he flew beyond the heaven and ran to the east of the mountain to hide in Tibet for five months. In these days, every day all dreamed that he was taken by the woman that day The souls of transformation came to claim their lives, and they couldn’t sleep well or eat well. In just a few months, they were already skinny and thin, and when added in the wild, they looked like a wild man.

Occasionally, I was seen by a hunter nearby, thinking it was a mountain spirit, so I was so scared to report to the official, the yamen dispatched and brought him back.

_

Speaking of which, Pantou Liu was paused.

“And then?”

Yu Chunxi gritted his teeth and said: “What does this matter have to do with us?

It’s just that no one else found out, but Gu Changan can see it clearly.

When Liu Bantou composes this story, when he talked about this day six months ago, his expression was a little bit wrong. When he mentioned the Earth Temple, it was even more complex. greatly changed.

And he asked, and he held up his body so that he would not fall.

The young woman behind him was even more sloppy. It’s pale.

There is no blood!

The body is shaking constantly, and the whole person is all shrunk behind Yu Chunxi, looking extremely frightened.

Of course, this is also normal.

After all, these things mentioned by Liu Bantou are really unbearable for an ordinary person, especially a weak woman.

Bantou Liu ignored Yu Chunxis questioning, and each minding their own business said, Its just that what makes me quite curious…Since this land ruffian told such a murder case, we have never received it in the past six months. The related report and the file did not record that there was a young woman missing during this period…”

“But this is strange! “

Liu Bantou shook his head and said: “One did not report to the official, and the other was not missing, but the ruffian insisted that it was a dozen or more li outside the city… Since this is the case, since the woman I also said that I doubt that I am naturally impossible and unable to travel far, so it is very likely that they are women in our County City. “

“In order to find out this doubt, I visited around these two days and finally found a clue…”

Speaking of this, he turned his eyes on the pregnant woman On the human body, said solemnly: “Before and after the incident, there were 13 women visiting relatives in the whole city, but only one person came back as soon as the city gates opened at dawn. “

“The woman was slightly embarrassed, but she looked pale, and it was quite inconvenient to walk. When the soldiers stationed at the city gate saw this, they wanted to help her walk, but she was rejected. So leave a deep impression. “

“Seeing the woman entering the city alone, the soldier couldn’t let it go, so he used to patrol the street as an excuse to care about all the way, and finally saw her walk here and open the door…”

At this point, Ban Liu took a step forward, and the imposing manner on his body also changed abruptly. Holding the waist blade blade handle in his hand, he said solemnly: “Yu Young Master, Yu woman, but I don’t know what to do. What do you two have to say? “

Yu Chunxi’s color changed immediately.

At this moment, the young woman took a subconsciously step back and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, she was supported by a wooden door.

But even so, her face suddenly became pale and blue, and then from blue to white, looking very scary.

“Madam, ma’am, are you okay…”

At this moment, Yu Chunxi was shocked, and he could take care of the others there, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help, while comforting in a gentle voice.

In this scene, Bantou Liu and the other one were caught quickly. There was an embarrassment on the upper part-after all, they only came to ask this time, and there was no conclusive evidence. As a result, the woman was so frightened. People who didn’t know thought they were threatening and threatening.

Its not right to stand there for a while, and its not to retreat.

Yu Chunxi comforted him, and when he felt his wife eased down, seeing the two catchers still standing here, his face became cold. “Liu Bantou, I don’t know what you are here for this time, but I can tell you clearly that this matter… has nothing to do with my wife! “

“Let’s go. Although I am a white clothed, I am also a Scholar. I have a reputation! If you come again, don’t blame me to beat the drums in front of the man! “

“See off!
