Ask Sword

Town Fusi.

Li Ang looked calm on the surface, but his mind was spinning sharply.

He had expected this scene to happen a long time ago.

When he left Chang'an City with Jiao Cheng and others before, heading for the underground palace near the ghost city,

He was seen by several Pingkang women on the boat.

In addition, on the corpses of Jiao Cheng and others in the underground palace, there were also silver threads used to suture the wounds.

After Jiao Cheng's death, Pingkang Square got a new manager, and Dali Temple, Wannian County and other places tacitly did not investigate further.

But if you want to investigate, you will be able to trace the clues back to Li Ang sooner or later.

The only question is...why Zhen Fusi, and why now.

Li Ang paused his jaw, and said I'm free to the two magistrates, while thinking crazily.

His current status is a student of the academy and the county magistrate of the founding country. With a title of title, he has already entered the privileged class. Even if you see court officials or even the royal family, you don't need to salute.

In the absence of conclusive evidence, who dares to doubt him, investigate him.

The two magistrates of the Zhenfu Division are far from qualified, at least they must be the first-level figures.

What's more, even if the Zhen Fusi has evidence in hand,

Confirming that he was seriously involved in the case of Jiao Cheng's death, and that he hid the alienated object in the tomb of the sword fairy,

It should also be the Zhenfusi, plus the Academy, who came to the door together - the Zhenfusi and the Academy have no direct conflicts, and they often deal with things together.

Could it be that there is a deeper secret?

For example, someone, or some people, suspected that they had hidden the files left by Jiao Cheng, which contained a lot of dirty information about the powerful, so they took the taboo and knocked on the door to hint?

Or the Mosi in the Sword Immortal's Tomb is far more important than I imagined. Jiao Cheng's mastermind behind the scenes wants to take a desperate risk?

I think this should be a misunderstanding. I can go to the Zhenfu Division, but I need to be accompanied by a doctor from the academy. Is that okay?

Li Ang asked: This request should be within the scope of the Zhenfu Department's permission?

this

The two judges frowned slightly and looked at each other.

Li Ang imitated the thoughts of the two opposite people in his heart,

The Zhenfu Division handles the case overbearingly and domineeringly. For a Jinbu doctor like Huai Rui who is from the fifth rank, after the guilt is determined, he will be directly thrown into the prison and tortured.

Ordinary criminals would be frightened to death when they heard that they were going to the Zhenfu Division, and it was not uncommon for criminals to commit suicide in fear of crime.

The reason they were so polite was because of Li Ang's status as a school disciple and founding county uncle.

Otherwise, instead of asking for assistance in the investigation, a large group of people drove into Jinchengfang and handcuffed Li Ang.

Yes yes yes,

A middle-aged judge elongated his voice slightly, But Mr. Li Xiaolang, are you sure you want to do this?

Um?

Li Ang paused, what do you mean? Isn't it normal for Xuegong disciples to ask Xuegong for help?

Could it be that the other side is conducting a secret investigation?

I don't understand what you two are talking about.

Li Ang narrowed his eyes slightly, silently awakened Mosi, and activated the new function that Mosi had obtained by devouring the blue and black stone statue before - emotional perception.

With the surge of thoughts and the awakening of Mosi,

Complicated and dense fragments of information poured into Li Ang's brain.

Resentment, quarrels, anger from the neighbors, all negative emotions flooded towards Li Ang, which made him feel agitated out of thin air, wanting to release ink and ignite the fire of karma.

Li Ang suppressed his irritability, and looked at the two magistrates standing at the door, his eyes suddenly paused.

There is no emotion on the other party, no emotional fluctuations, it's just like...

Two walking corpses.

The two judges smiled slightly, The fifteenth house on Huaidefang Third Street.

The seventh store on the west bank of Weishui bridgehead in Weizhou.

Mr. Li Xiaolang, do you still have any impressions?

.

Li Ang's eyes froze suddenly, and a killing intent rose from the depths of his heart.

You are not from the Zhenfu Department.

Li Ang said indifferently, the chill in his tone almost froze the air.

The two addresses reported by the other party were the mansions of Song Shaoyuan and You Duzhi, and the location of Aunt Song's Lansheng Building in Weizhou City.

No matter how arrogant and reckless the middle-level officers of the Zhenfu Division are, no matter how much Jiao Cheng's mastermind behind the scenes wants to obtain the so-called information,

He will never risk the displeasure of the world and threaten the relatives of the disciples of the academy.

This is something that touches the bottom line of the school. Even if the relatives of the emperor and the prime minister are exposed, they will surely die without a place to bury them.

Yes and no.

The two judges smiled at each other, raised their hands together, reached to their temples, and pinched something with their fingertips.

squeak--

Accompanied by a slight sound, the two judges pulled out a long, narrow, silver-white needle from their temples.

Since the thin needles are arranged obliquely, their length and position just penetrate the left and right brains,

There are still blood beads and greasy red and white things on its surface.

And here, here, here.

The two town governors pulled out needles one after another slightly from their heads and bodies, with weird smiles on their faces all the time.

who are you.

Li Ang asked calmly.

Normal people are tied into fish meat full of fish bones, and they are already in pain and unable to move.

The two judges in front of them were obviously manipulated by someone or some people. They came to their door and threatened themselves with the lives of Song Shaoyuan and Aunt Song.

To some extent, you should be regarded as my younger brother.

The two judges pressed the thin needles on the face and body back under the skin,

The voices were neat and consistent, and even the angle of the smile on the corner of the mouth was exactly the same, Just to remind you kindly, I know that you are wearing the protective talisman written by Lian Xuanxiao, as long as you detect the fluctuation of aura, it will automatically open and block it. Any attack below Xuanxiao Realm.

You only need to open the talisman, and you can attract the Zhenfusi or Xuegong Doctor in Chang'an City.

But standing here are only my two clones,

Waiting for them to find a way to cut off the connection between me and my clone, or find my main body, and destroy me is enough time for me to kill your relatives and friends many times.

In order to verify the authenticity of my words, there are lotus flowers planted in the water tank in the corner of Song Dalang’s house, the ceramic utensils used at home are Yue kiln celadon, and the dishes are Xing kiln white porcelain.

As for the shopkeeper of the Lansheng Building, he has sent a third letter recently, which contains 1,500 guan for you.

Am I right?

If this still doesn't convince you, then I have no choice but to write a letter and tell Xuegong that you have secretly hidden the alienated object obtained from the tomb of the sword fairy.

.

Li Ang let out a breath slowly, and said lightly, What do you want?

money? Allicin recipe? Jiao Cheng's secret information? Or let yourself be the ghost in the academy?

I just want to chat with you, Junior Brother, and have a good time with you.

The two judges turned slightly, revealing the carriage behind them, Junior brother, go outside the city for a briefing?

good.

Li Ang didn't talk nonsense, stepped out of the courtyard, closed the door with his thoughts, and boarded the carriage.

The two magistrates of the Zhenfu Division, one drove the vehicle towards the city gate, while the other sat facing Li Ang in the carriage, and said with a smile: Junior brother, I heard that your admission to the academy was not smooth,

Xi Yangyu was almost wiped out of the quota.

fine.

Li Ang said something lightly, thinking quickly in his mind.

Both of the Zhenfusi judge's waist badges are genuine, and the Zhenfusi's judge is at least an acquired martial artist, or a monk who listens to the rain.

To be able to play with them at will like manipulating puppets, at least one must be a cultivator in the cloud patrol realm.

'The silver needles on the two of them are definitely alienated objects.

The materials in Xuegong Zangshuge mentioned similar techniques. In the former Sui Dynasty, some sects would use fine needles to penetrate other people's bodies, block their minds, and manipulate their bodies, causing serious disasters in the former Sui Dynasty.

Those sects were finally destroyed by sectarian wars, and their evil methods and sorcery were lost.’

Li Ang silently stared at the judge on the opposite side of the carriage. The person behind the puppet who claimed to be his senior brother must be a monk above the level of Xunyun Realm, and he was extremely confident, and he was not afraid of being traced by the school.

Pu Liuxuan's disciple?

No, not quite.

Before leaving Weizhou City, Pu Liuxuan did not mention such a thing, and Cheng Juxiu did not mention it at all.

A traitor from the academy?

There have been cases of defection in the academy before, but what is the purpose of the other party?

Carrying a talisman on her body, she always has the ability to open the talisman and attract the school and the Zhen Fusi.

Even if the two sides die, Li Ang will not have to worry about his life.

Secondly, the other party knew about the display at Song Shaoyuan's house. Could it be that Aunt Song in the Lansheng Building in Weizhou City was also under the surveillance of the other party?

Chang'an City is thousands of miles away from Weizhou City, and there are only a few special items in the world that can communicate in real time.

For example, the first-level demon class [Close Insect], or the communication copper plate that is only eligible to be distributed by the school tour.

The carriage was driving dully, there were a lot of pedestrians outside the window, and the carriages and horses were like dragons, all of them went to see the monks and Taoists in the temple debating scriptures.

Soon, the vehicle drove outside the Golden Light Gate, waiting for the guards to inspect it.

Put this on.

The magistrate in the carriage took out a leather human face mask from his pocket and threw it into Li Ang's pocket.

Li Ang took the mask, and the touch felt weird and slippery, sending chills down the spine.

Li Ang stared at the other party, silently awakened Mosi Bodyguard, put on the mask, and turned into a middle-aged man in his forties.

Next!

The guarding soldier who had searched the previous cart shouted,

The carriage moved forward silently, and the judge who was driving took out a stack of documents for leaving the city that he had prepared in advance, and handed them over.

Since Huai Rui's change, the review of Chang'an City going out and entering the city has been much stricter, but this review is based on the defensive formation.

The city gate guard didn't notice the problem, and waved his hand to let the carriage pass.

Junior brother, your beard is crooked.

The magistrate of the Zhenfu Division pointed to Li Ang's cheek with a smile, and Li Ang took off the human face mask silently, and threw it on the seat——

This is definitely a alienated object. When I was wearing it just now, I could hear screams and wailing that seemed to be nothing.

Li Ang asked blankly, Where is this going?

temple.

The judge in the carriage tilted his head, his tone still relaxed.

The carriage continued to drive along the official road, and as the vehicle turned several intersections, the pedestrians, carriages and horses on the road gradually thinned out.

Slap.

The wagon rolled over the curb stones, drove into the field, and drove forward.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens, and the birds return to the forest.

The curtains of the carriage were blown by the evening wind, and a temple appeared at the end of the horizon.

It was a Buddhist temple that had been abandoned for a long time. Most of the bricks and tiles on the top of the temple were broken, the gate and threshold had not been repaired for a long time, and the red paint was peeling off.

The outer wall of the temple is covered with dry vines, like the stagnant blood vessels of the dead, revealing a decaying air.

The temple is dimly lit, and the weather-beaten wooden Buddha statue, illuminated by the candlelight in front of the stage, still has a kind and gentle expression.

But green mildew and mushrooms have grown on one side of the wooden cheek, and it doesn't look evil.

There was already a figure standing in the temple, it was a young man who was about the same age as Cheng Juxiu, dressed in ordinary clothes, with the same smile as the two judges.

Squeak.

The carriage stopped in front of the ruined temple, and the two judges jumped out of the carriage, stepped into the temple, and stood beside the young man.

Li Ang got out of the carriage expressionlessly and came to the young man, Is this also your avatar?

Unlike the two judges, in Mosi's perception, the young man had some emotional fluctuations.

It's not like a walking corpse that has completely lost consciousness.

maybe.

The young man smiled slightly and said softly, Let me introduce myself. I'm your senior brother. You can call me Yajiu.

Li Ang asked indifferently, The one who made the sword?

He was talking about Zhang Yajiu, a swordsmith in Yu State decades ago. The swords he forged were extremely sharp. Bai Letian once wrote a new Yuefu poem for him, called The Nine Swords of Crows - Thinking about Jue Ye .

It's kind of related.

The young man who called himself Yajiu raised his hand, lightly flicked the long sword tied at his waist, turned his body slightly, and exposed the temple hall, Junior brother, please?

I have walked such a long way, and I don't care about entering the temple.

Li Ang strode into the temple, his eyebrows subconsciously raised.

Behind the Buddha statue in the temple, there is a row of beautiful women tied up.

They all wore silk costumes, their eyes, ears, and mouths were covered with thick cloth, and their hands and feet were bound.

Weeping and struggling under the pedestal of the Buddha statue.

What does it mean.

Li Ang turned his head to look at Eye Crow Nine,

The latter smiled slightly and said easy-goingly: My sincerity. Hehe, junior brother, you have made a big splash in Chang'an City during this time, and you have made so many achievements in just half a year, but your heart is too soft and kind.

There are three behind-the-scenes masterminds behind Jiao Cheng, one is a prince, two dignitaries from Kaifu Yitong and the third division.

During this period of time, the Zhenfu Division and Dali Temple did not continue to investigate Jiao Cheng's case, because these three dignitaries involved each other in private to prevent the other party from finding out the real cause of Jiao Cheng's death and finding the information left behind by Jiao Cheng. .

Once the balance between the three is broken and someone wants to continue the investigation, they will definitely find out that Jiao Cheng and his accomplices died in the underground palace, find out the tomb of the Sword Immortal, and finally investigate you, which will cause you trouble.

And these Pingkangfang women were all people who saw your face on the boat at that time, but you didn't find out their identities afterwards and sealed them up.

This is not thorough enough.
