different paths

In the pool of blood, blue threads spread out like algae, entwined with the body of Zhuanpo sword tenderly and affectionately, as if they were inseparable lovers.A pale and swollen corpse came into everyone's eyes. The clothes were soaked in blood and the color could not be seen clearly. Only a pair of small and exquisite embroidered shoes floated tremblingly on the surface of the pool. The bright red satin surface was extremely scorching at this moment. eyeball.

Everyone who came to the Jiange with excitement and joy held their breath and concentrated, not daring to breathe.It's just because Lu Changqi's expression is so ugly that people have to think about the relationship between the people in the pool and him——

Could it be...

People who are active in thinking have a little bit of clues, but they are all excited, and they dare not continue to speculate.

"Hey, what happened here?" A smiling voice came from behind the crowd, Tian Cangu and his party also entered the stone room at some time, and the leader was Lin Luanpo.

Under the attention of everyone, he went straight to the pool of blood. When he saw the corpse in the pool, he took a breath of cool air exaggeratedly and said, "Who is this person?" , how can we let her continue soaking in the pool of blood and carry her out quickly?"

Some disciple in the crowd roared, "You don't need to pretend to be kind!" After speaking, he asked Lu Changqi for advice, "Master Lu, do you think it's better to lift the corpse out first, and then..."

From the moment Lu Changqi saw the corpse, he felt dizzy, his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't hear any words clearly.Seeing someone rolling up their sleeves and leaning against the pool of blood at this moment, it seemed that they were relieved and shouted: "Wait!"

He has always been gentle and humble to the outside world, and he has never blushed before. At this moment, he suddenly became angry, and everyone present was stunned. For a moment, no one spoke.Lu Changqi seemed to be aware of his gaffe, and hurriedly laughed dryly: "This corpse is extremely important for catching the real murderer, so please be careful." He stepped aside, implying that everyone was allowed to carry the corpse.

People who were already suspicious were even more puzzled by him.When he just drank it, it was obvious that he didn't want anyone to touch the corpse, but he changed his attitude in an instant, and those words were not a reason to be angry. Why was he angry, and why did he cover it up?

As the corpse was carried out from the pool of blood, everyone finally saw the true face of the female corpse.

This is a young woman, dressed brightly, with blue silk like a waterfall, and exquisitely embroidered shoes, most likely born in a wealthy family.It is a pity that due to the long-term soaking, her body is swollen at this moment, her eyes are protruding, her skin is gray and white, her hands and feet are also wrinkled and pale, and she can't see her original figure and face at all.There were still tiny bubbles in her mouth and nose, and her face was covered with dark red corpse spots, big and small, deep and shallow, completely changed.

While everyone was secretly guessing the origin of this woman, those with sharp eyes saw some clues.

"Why do I look at it, this woman's earring looks like a sword?" Lin Luanpo seemed unintentional.

When he said this, everyone's eyes were focused on the ears of the corpse, but no one noticed that Lu Changqi's facial muscles twitched heavily because of these words.

"Isn't it just a sword!"

"Wait, why does the shape of this sword look familiar..."

"It's true when you say that, where does this sword seem to be seen?"

For a while there were different opinions.

Jia Wukai poked his head out among the noisy crowd, glanced at the corpse, and knew the woman's identity——

A pair of earrings are made of pure gold, with exquisite workmanship. The sword in the shape of the earrings is exactly the giant sword inserted obliquely on the top of Longyuan Villa's head.The woman who can wear this sword on both ears must have a pivotal position in Longyuan Villa. This woman is so young, and Lu Changqi has no concubine, so she can only have one identity.

"To tell you the truth," Lu Changqi listened to the mixed discussions, clenched his hand hanging by his side into a fist, and finally sighed heavily, "This woman is exactly my little girl."

what? !

If Lu Changqi hadn't admitted it himself, the group of heroes present couldn't believe their ears.Lu Changqi said that this was his daughter's body. Didn't his daughter just get married last night?On the wedding night, the bridal chamber should be a very auspicious event, so why did it turn into a corpse and lie here?

Could it be that Lu Changqi has more than one daughter?

Could it be that Lu Changqi's daughter was drowned in this pool by hiding the sun?

The searching gazes all hit Zheri's face, and everyone realized that no matter whether it was for a newlywed or a newlywed and widow, Zheri seemed too silent and peaceful.

This kind of silence and calmness, which usually represent reliability and stability, now looks extremely suspicious and terrifying.

Does this person have a heart?

Is he a human, or just one of the many puppets manipulated by Longyuan Villa?

Lu Changqi's words were like a blockbuster, causing everyone, including him, his daughter, his son-in-law, and even the entire Longyuan Villa to be full of suspicion, whether good or evil.

If he hadn't been forced to do nothing, Lu Changqi would never have taken this step.

However, from the moment he saw the corpse in the blood pool, he had no way out.Now, you can only take one step, count as one step.

"Just as you think," Lu Changqi sighed again, his complacent face looked tired and haggard at the moment, "This girl is the little girl Mingshu."

Mingshu is actually Lu Mingshu.

Someone has already surrounded Zheri with malicious intentions, and it seems that as long as Lu Changqi gives an order, he will be the first hero to catch the evil.It's a pity that Lu Changqi didn't give them this chance.

"Why did the little girl appear here? Lu is also puzzled. It's just that the little girl was kind and generous before, and she has always been kind to others. After her death, she definitely doesn't want to blame innocent people and wrongly judge good people because of her affairs. Before the conclusion is reached , and please don’t take it lightly. Besides, since the imperial court officials are here, they will definitely uphold justice for the little girl. Lu Mou understands your kindness, and I am really grateful." Lu Changqi said, bowing to everyone present .

And the "official ordered by the imperial court" in his mouth also walked over from the end of the crowd at this moment.A group of people in loose posture and willow posture, radiant majesty and intimidation as they walked, were none other than Yuqiansi headed by Suo Luzheng.

Yuqiansi, as the emperor's close servant, whenever he shows up, even the most respected figures in the world must be courteous.Lu Changqi entrusted the matter to the Imperial Secretary to investigate and deal with it, which actually cut off the possibility of various factions in the world intervening in this matter.Even if someone wanted to take this opportunity to stir up some disturbances, they had to suppress their thoughts when they saw the guards in front of the imperial court.

"Lord Suolu, I'm sorry." Lu Changqi cupped his hands at Suoluzheng.

Suo Luzheng nodded to him, and the guards behind him saw this and wanted to lift Lu Mingshu's body away.

"Wait a minute—" A soft and boneless voice came from the corner, and with the support of two girls in neon clothes, a woman in white came out gracefully.Her face was still pale as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, and the white clothes were more than snow, covering her body rather loosely, adding a bit of fragility, charming and lovable.

"Master Li, what advice do you have?" Lu Changqi looked at the person coming. Although his face remained unchanged, there were blue veins on his neck, as if he was trying to suppress something.

"I can't talk about advice, it's just a little idea." Li Yan said in a gentle voice, "The sword appreciating conference was sincerely invited and entertained by Master Lu, and we were lucky enough to see many magical weapons and unique skills. Now that Master Lu's daughter died unexpectedly, although you are not as fierce as the officials of the Gongmen, you still want to do your best. Although Master Lu has entrusted the matter to the adults of the Yuqiansi, we will accept the responsibility for this trip. Master Lu has taken care of him a lot, so how can he just sit on the sidelines and just sit on the sidelines?" After finishing speaking, she swept her beautiful eyes and looked at the group of heroes present, "Everyone, tell me, is this the truth?"

How many people can stand up to the beauty's soft words and those tender eyes?

Immediately, many people chattered——

"Exactly!"

"Although I am weak and talented, I want to do my best!"

"Since we ate the wedding wine given by the daughter of the Lu family, we naturally can't stand by and watch!"

People in the Jianghu love excitement the most, and this matter is related to the daughter of the owner of Longyuan Villa, who doesn't want to get involved?The person who had regretted the appearance of Yuqiansi was gearing up again after Li Yan's words.

Seeing this, Lu Changqi couldn't say "no" any more, so he had to forcefully say: "Then according to what you all see, where should we start the investigation?"

"Isn't your son-in-law very suspicious that Ling'ai died somewhere else after the wedding night?" The speaker was smiling, but his words were sharp and merciless. It was Lin Luanpo.

As soon as his words came out, many people who had doubted Zheri before didn't care that he was a member of Tiancangu, and they all responded, "That's right! The most suspicious one is him!"

"The guard, why don't you justify yourself?" Li Yan looked at the silent cover and said softly.

Amidst the doubts of the crowd like swords and swords, Zhe Ri still lowered his head and looked at Lu Mingshu's body on the ground, without saying a word.All his expression was completely covered by the black mask, leaving only a pair of dark and deep eyes, but he didn't look at anyone, his eyes were only nailed to Lu Mingshu's body, like an infatuated person because of love. A person is dead and in a state of numbness.

The heart is like dead ashes, and the eyes are like dry wells.

There was an occasional flash of emotion in his eyes, which seemed to be sadness, guilt, disappointment, or just an illusion.

"If you don't speak, is it acquiescing?" Someone said with righteous indignation, "Master Lu, this person must be related to Ling Ai's death! Why don't you ask the adults of the imperial court to take this person into custody first, interrogate him, and there will be something to gain !"

"The point is, on the wedding night, he and his daughter were in the same room, and no one else was present. If he wanted to strike, wouldn't it be easy?"

The silence that concealed the sun has caused many people to regard him as the most suspicious person by default. Amidst the verbal attacks of everyone, his killing of Lu Mingshu seems to have become a certainty.

At this moment, a voice different from everyone's opinions came out——

"Who can prove that the guard covering the body must be the murderer?" The speaker paused, and then said, "But I can prove that the guard covering the body must not be the murderer!"

Hearing these words, everyone was startled, and even the sun who had kept his head down, suddenly raised his head.

This remark contradicted everyone's opinion, but no one immediately jumped out to refute the accusation.The person who spoke slowly walked over to the side of the sun. His voice was not too loud, he was not well dressed, and even his weapons were inconspicuous, but the strange thing was that his light words were full of emotion. A shocking force.

This power comes from his status, but also from himself——

This person is the elder of the beggar gang with nine bags, Qiu Wanzhan.
