Excalibur laughs

Meng Zhang's face changed when he heard the words, and he pondered: "It must be not an ordinary murder case to let Commander Yao come to me in person, right?"

Yao Feiyu nodded, handed the things on the table to Meng Zhang, and said, "Every dead person has this thing on his face."

Meng Zhang took the thing over, and saw that it was a palm-sized ebony box. He slowly opened the box, and what came into view was a blood-red centipede.

The centipede was about four inches long, and it was no different from the centipedes seen in ordinary times. The only difference was that the tentacles on the head of this centipede were much longer than those of other centipedes.

Meng Zhang frowned slightly, and the true energy in his palm secretly passed through the wooden box into the centipede's body, but the centipede didn't move at all.

Seeing this, Yao Feiyu said slowly: "When we found the bodies of those girls, these centipedes were already dead."

Meng Zhang's face gradually became gloomy, suppressed his anger, and asked, "Have there been any changes in the capital recently?"

Yao Feiyu shook his head and said, "The Forbidden Army and the secret guards have been paying attention to the movements in the capital, and they haven't found anyone suspicious."

Meng Zhang sighed and said: "The murderer's method is vicious. He only picked young girls to attack. It's really hateful. He killed several people in a row without alarming the hidden guards. I think he is a master. Among the three clans, I have never heard of killing and leaving centipedes behind." of."

After he finished speaking, he paused, and asked again: "Have you traced the whereabouts of this centipede?"

Yao Feiyu nodded, and said: "I asked the imperial physicians in the palace to look at it, and they all said that they had never seen this kind of centipede, and it seems that it was not born by the human race."

Meng Zhang pondered for a moment, then said: "It seems that people from the ghost clan have arrived in the capital."

Yao Feiyu wasn't surprised at all, obviously he had already guessed this, and asked: "This is a serious matter, I have to report to the General, people from the ghost clan have been afraid to come to Shuanglong City for a long time, this time they not only made a comeback, Moreover, they still killed innocent people, what should we do? If the murderer is not caught, the people in the capital may complain to the military.”

Meng Zhang nodded lightly, and said to Yao Feiyu, "Sage Yanlong's duty is to guard the human race, and he can't get away with this kind of thing."

Yao Feiyu's heart trembled slightly, but he didn't speak.

Meng Zhang was a little tired, so he leaned back on the chair slowly, closed his eyes and sighed, "I have my own discretion in this matter, you go down first."

Seeing this, Yao Feiyu didn't say much, so she got up and said goodbye. She just took two steps and stopped again. She turned and looked at Meng Zhang. He was not found to be taken out of the city, presumably the thieves still left the guard Yun in the city, general, guard Yun is loyal to the Meng family, are you really not going to save him?"

Meng Zhang still kept his eyes closed, tapping lightly on the table with his right hand, without saying a word.

Yao Feiyu wanted to say something more, but seeing Meng Zhang's tired face, he had no choice but to swallow what he wanted to say, and walked out slowly.

As soon as she walked to the gate of the mansion, she heard an urgent cry after the sound.

"Commander Yao, please stop!"

Yao Feiyu turned his head when he heard the words, and saw Ling Chu walking towards him holding Yun Fan.

After seeing Ling Chu, she felt a little uneasy, because she knew that it was all because of Meng Zhang, but she couldn't tell Ling Chu the truth.

For a while, she didn't know how to face Ling Chu, so she had to stay where she was, and when she came to her senses, Ling Chu had already walked in front of her.

Ling Chu gave Yao Feiyu a warm smile, then lowered his head and said to Yun Fan, "Fan'er, my name is Aunt Yao."

Yun Fan called softly, "Aunt Yao."

Knowing Yun Fan's background, Yao Feiyu nodded, and then said to Ling Chu, "Miss Ling called me, but because of Yun Huwei?"

Ling Chu nodded and said, "Yun Yun has been missing for so long, I am very worried about him."

Yao Feiyu comforted: "Don't worry, Yunjiren has his own aura, and nothing will happen. The general and I are also trying to find a way to find him. Once we have news about him, we will tell you right away."

After expressing his thanks to Yao Feiyu, Ling Chu looked around and asked in a low voice, "Did Commander Yao come here for the murder of a girl in the capital?"

Yao Feiyu was silent for a moment, finally nodded, and said: "The girl who was killed has a centipede on her face. I have never seen such a murderous method, so I came to discuss with the general."

Seeing that there was no one else around except himself, Ling Chu asked Yao Feiyu in a low voice, "Are the centipede's tentacles much longer than ordinary centipedes?"

Yao Feiyu was startled, and hurriedly asked: "The centipede's tentacles, except for Wu Zuo and a few forbidden soldiers, are only known to me and the general, how did Miss Ling know?"

After hearing Yao Feiyu's words, Ling Chu's face was filled with sadness, and he said, "This kind of centipede human race doesn't exist, and it's reasonable that Commander Yao hasn't seen it before."

Yao Feiyu asked: "Miss Ling, you mean, have you seen this kind of centipede?"

Ling Chu nodded, and said, "This kind of centipede is unique to the Raksha clan, and it's called Chixue. People of the Raksha clan usually use this centipede to nourish their souls."

Yao Feiyu was a little puzzled, and asked, "Cultivating souls? I've never heard of centipedes having this effect."

Ling Chu explained: "Cultivating the soul is a forbidden technique of the Raksha clan. Because it requires the use of young girls as sacrifices, the method is cruel, so the Raksha clan has never allowed people to practice this technique. If this centipede is really the blood of the Raksha clan If so, there should be a small hole in its abdomen. The caster uses the centipede to swallow the blood essence of the living person first, and the red blood swallows the blood essence and then dies. At this time, the caster can take out the inner alchemy from the abdomen .”

Yao Feiyu remembered that there was indeed a small hole in the abdomen of those centipedes that was difficult to detect, so he asked: "What does the caster use the inner alchemy of the centipede?"

Ling Chu shook his head, and said: "Although the red blood can only swallow the blood essence of one person, it can swallow the inner alchemy of other red blood. The more inner alchemy the red blood swallows, the stronger its effect will be. After losing the blood essence of ten young girls, this inner alchemy becomes a highly poisonous substance."

Yao Feiyu was inexplicably horrified, but he was extremely angry about this atrocity, and said bitterly: "The murderer killed the innocent girl just to make poison to harm people?"

Ling Chu nodded, and said: "It is reasonable to say that people from the Raksha clan will not leave the northern border, let alone come to the human race to commit crimes, but since the soul cultivation technique appeared in the human race, it must have something to do with the Raksha clan. As the leader of the forbidden army, the commander needs to be careful when catching the murderer."

Yao Feiyu nodded in agreement, and asked, "Is the disappearance of the guard Yun also related to the Raksha people?"

Ling Chu shook his head, and said: "I don't know about this, but I have already asked a friend of mine for help, and he will come to the capital soon, Commander Yao, don't startle the snake in the next few days."
