Chapter 90

In the Jiugongzi's mansion, Han Fei was about to turn off the lights and go to bed when a servant knocked on Han Fei's door.

"Master Ninth, someone is looking for you outside, saying that there is something urgent."

Han Fei sighed helplessly, put on his clothes again, opened the door and walked out.

I saw a subordinate of the Sikou Mansion following the servant, and when he saw Han Fei coming out, he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "I have seen the ninth son."

Han Fei waved his hand: "Come here so late, what happened?"

"Reporting to Mr. Ninth, a shop on North Street caught fire just now. After the imperial army extinguished the fire, nine corpses were found inside. They were all killed."

Han Fei was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Prepare the horse, I'll go and have a look."

A quarter of an hour later, Han Fei came to the shop, looked at the row of corpses on the ground, and rubbed his temples involuntarily.

"Have you figured out the identities of these people?"

The subordinate at the side replied: "Ninth Young Master, these people have been burnt beyond recognition, and it is difficult to identify them."

Hearing this, Han Fei stepped forward and lifted the white cloth off one person's body, and took a look. Indeed, the whole person was almost burned to black coals.

"Can you find out the cause of their death?" Han Fei asked Ling Shi, who was standing aside.

Naling Shi nodded: "Reporting to the ninth son, the injuries on several people's bodies are relatively obvious, seven of them were twisted and broken their necks, and the remaining two were wiped off their necks and pierced through their hearts. .”

"Anything else?" Han Fei asked.

"We checked outside and found seven swords in different locations, which should belong to those people whose necks were broken. These people should have been killed outside and then moved into the house. "

After reporting to Han Fei, the officer in charge of the investigation of the Sikou Mansion came to the almost destroyed wall, pointed to the marks on it and said, "The house has suffered obvious damage, and there are still several sword marks, which should be the murderer. They have fought with the dead, and the strength of both of them is not low."

"By the way, we also found this on a dead body." Ling Shi at the side lifted the clothes of a dead body, and saw a pattern of a spider tattooed on his back.

When Han Fei saw this scene, his pupils shrank: "Trap?"

Then I looked around again, and it was basically confirmed that the dead people should all be snares.

"Why have so many snares come to Xinzheng recently? Who killed these people?" Li Chen scratched his head again and muttered in doubt.

Early the next morning, Han Fei came to Zilanxuan early, and as soon as he opened the door of the private room he usually came to, he was startled. Wei Zhuang stood there with his sword in his arms.

Seeing Han Fei, he turned around and walked out, saying as he walked, "I want to introduce a friend to you."

Han Fei followed quickly: "You are so secretive, who exactly do you want me to meet?"

Wei Zhuang replied in a low voice: "A friend I haven't seen for a long time."

Han Fei stopped and touched his chin with his hand: "Could it be that the other person from Guigu Zongheng is already in the city?"

Seeing that Wei Zhuang stopped, Han Fei went on to say: "There are several scratches on your right shoe, which should be related to the sword moves that your right hand is used to."

Then he picked up a small piece of sawdust from Wei Zhuang's body: "And I still have this kind of debris on my body, the nanmu unique to the beam structure of the watchtower in the border city."

Han Fei turned around and pointed at Wei Zhuang: "You fought with someone there, it shouldn't be with Qijuetang. Your breath is a little short, and if you can make you like this, the other party must be a master. But the heartbeat is strong, so it is not life and death Fighting each other, but fighting each other, meeting the excitement of the opponent."

As soon as Han Fei said this, Wei Zhuang picked him up and pushed him forward, and quickly followed Wei Zhuang's footsteps: "And I've known you for so long, you have no friends at all."

Hearing this, Wei Zhuang stopped in his tracks.

Han Fei still said to himself: "So the person you want to meet with me must be an old person with a long history. In summary, only your brother, the chief swordsmanship teacher of Qin State, Gai Nie, is right. "

Seeing that Wei Zhuang still didn't respond, Han Fei tilted his head slightly, turned to Wei Zhuang and asked, "By the way, did you win?"

A sword intent suddenly emanated from Wei Zhuang's body, scaring Han Fei to run forward...

Next, Han Fei followed Wei Zhuang in a carriage and came to a small courtyard in the north of the city. He met Wei Zhuang's senior brother, Gai Nie, the chief swordsmanship teacher of Qin State, and thus also met King Qin Yingzheng...

After Li Chen got up, he first reviewed the process of fighting against Duanshui, and then sighed.

The fight last night was still not intense enough, and there was almost little help in his swordsmanship practice.

It seems that I can only wait to fight against Black and White Xuanjian or Bai Yifei later.

After lunch, Li Chen explained to a few people, then went out and wandered on the street.

After shopping for a long time, I basically visited most of Xinzheng, and found no one following.

It seems that the death of several people who were cut off from the water last night has been suspected by the net.

Next, use the anti-tracking method to find Zhengang. It seems that it is no longer realistic, and we have to find another way.

After thinking for a while, Li Chen thought of a breakthrough—the Korean general, Ji Wuye.

No matter whether it is to deal with Ying Zheng or himself in the future, the people who catch the net will definitely come into contact with Ji Wuye.

As long as I keep an eye on Ji Wuye, I will definitely have a chance to find the person who caught the net.

After deciding on the method, Li Chen came to the back door of the General's Mansion, looked around, found a tavern not far away, ordered some food and drink, and sat down at a table by the window.

Li Chen had observed carefully before that there were only two gates in the General's Mansion, and the main gate was for Ji Wuye's normal visits and for important visitors.

And there are more people coming in and out of the back door. Usually, the servants of the general's mansion, or some small people, come in and out from here. People who snare the general's mansion are most likely to enter through the back door.

But here, if you want to tell who is the snare, you can only rely on luck.

Li Chen was not in a hurry, he planned to wait until after dark, and then find a way to sneak into the General's Mansion.

If there is really no one to wait for Luo Wang in the end, Li Chen doesn't mind driving the Li Shenjian to Ji Wuye's neck again, then he will probably be happy to tell him about Luo Wang.

In this way, Li Chen sat in the tavern until dusk, and ordered another drink and food in the middle.

During this period of time, more than ten people came in and out of the back door, but Li Chen had carefully observed these people, and they were not quite like snares.

Li Chen couldn't help shaking his head, it seems that this method won't work, since he doesn't know the people in the General's Mansion, how can he tell the difference.

At this moment, Li Chen could only hope that after dark, he would sneak in to investigate at a close distance.

Just when Li Chen was in a hurry, there was a commotion on the street outside...
