Jiang Youpan frowned, and tapped lightly on the forehead of the young monk Guangguang with his curved fingers, making a muffled sound.

The little monk covered his forehead and blamed: "Benefactor, are you crazy?"

Jiang Yousi walked into the gate of the courtyard with his hands behind his back, turned around and said, "If you don't change your peaches, you have two flaws - first, the young monks in Huguo Temple never say that people are "crazy", and second -"

"What's the second?"

Jiang Youpan raised his hand and knocked on her forehead again: "No matter how advanced your disguise technique is, it is impossible to shave your hair, so the sound of knocking on it is dull, which is completely different from the sound of knocking on your forehead. Your second flaw."

The little monk grinned grinningly, "Okay, I admit that I'm not willing to change, I can't really shave my head just to see you, can I? Besides, are you willing?"

"Just admit it. I have a proposal. Next time you pretend to be a monk, you can't laugh."

"why?"

"Because the young monks in this temple don't have such neat and beautiful teeth as you."

Jiang Youpan led the way into the pagoda while talking, and when he reached the highest floor, Jiang Youpan leaned on the railing and turned back, "I found something from the wooden sign, which may be the clues left by your father."

After talking, Jiang Youpan handed the found iron sheet to Tao Buhuan, and described the story of the pattern drawn on the iron sheet.

Tao Buhuan was surprised after hearing this: "Did Lu Yan die for treasure hunting?"

"I guess so..."

"We have carried this wooden sign for many years and have not found the iron piece inside. How could Lu Yan know that there is something strange about this wooden sign?"

"Lu Yan seems to have heard something from the Bone Shop, or maybe from my father."

Jiang Yousi analyzed, "In short, Lu Yan betrayed Maigulou and planned to go treasure hunting by himself, but for some reason, he summoned these four people in Gyeonggi, and they were finally burned to death together in the house, resulting in the case of five charred corpses. illusion."

Tao Buhuan remained silent, leaning against the railing with Jiang Youbo for a while, looking at the endless beautiful scenery outside the window, and suddenly said leisurely: "All of this seems to have something to do with the Maigulou. If you finally find the Maigulou, what do you want? What will you do in the face of buying bones?"

Jiang Yousi shook his head, "I'm only in charge of investigating the case, and leave the rest to those who need to worry about it."

Tao Buhuan suddenly climbed over the railing, stood on the corner of the eaves of the tower, turned around and stretched out his hand to invite Jiang Youpan to signal her to turn over as well.

Jiang Youpan looked under his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out his hand to put on Tao Buhuan's, and she pulled her body hard and easily flew up.

The two sat on the eaves of the tower, watching the bustling scene of Gyeonggi, talking shoulder to shoulder.

"When I first met you, I never imagined that we would sit down and chat so calmly..."

Tao Buhuan looked at the beautiful scenery with her chin resting on her cheeks, with a smile on her lips, "At that time, all I wanted to do was drive you away, and I didn't see it well."

Jiang Yousi smiled.

At that time, I also hated the impetuous and rude Tao Buchang, but later on it became more and more pleasing to the eye, but today's Tao Buchang seems a bit too restrained and strange.

"After your reminder today, I suddenly remembered something - after my father and Uncle Jiang came back from Youzhou, I once heard them secretly chatting about the treasure of King Loulan. At that time, I heard it, but I remembered Not sure.

Now I think what they said is "treasure". You discovered the secret of the wooden sign, but have you cracked the location of the treasure? "Tao Buhuan turned to ask Jiang Yousi seriously.

"I never thought of looking for treasures." Jiang Youpan stared at Taobuhuan strangely, always feeling that something was wrong with her, "You care about treasures?"

Tao Buchang froze, and said with a smile: "I don't care about treasures, but finding treasures may help solve the case. Think about it carefully——

How many things in the world can bring together seemingly unrelated people?

There are only four things I think about: reminiscing about the past, common enemies, wedding banquets and treasures.

The appearance of the iron sheet tells us that there is only one reason why Lu Yan gathered these five people-treasure.The goal of buying bone buildings is also very clear, and it is also a treasure. "

"Your analysis sounds right..." Jiang Youpan's voice was calm, but his eyes were deep, "But these four people are actually useless to Lu Yan, why did he gather this group of helpless people?" people?

A more reasonable explanation might be that these four people are actually hostages—the four hostages that Lu Yan used to coerce Maigulou or other people. "

Tao Buhuan was surprised: "Lu Yan gathered this group of people to be hostages, but in the end they were all burned to death?"

"Well, probably so."

"Is there any real evidence?"

"No, it's all my speculation."

Tao Buhuan pursed her lips, "If we just speculate out of thin air, we still can't conclude that this is really the case."

Jiang Yousi stared at her quietly, and said slowly: "Wang Yuji, the female bandit of Daliang Mountain, gathered people to occupy the mountain as a bandit. Halfway through, she robbed a boat with Lu Yan to get charcoal, and used the charcoal to forge weapons in a cave...

I originally suppressed bandits with the prince, but I have been unable to find out who is behind the scenes.A small bandit with only a few hundred people, and a Jianghu gang who are all assassins, Maigulou, neither of them has the ability to rebel. There must be a mastermind behind them that we don't know. "

Tao Buhuan frowned: "Who do you suspect is the mastermind?"

"I suspect it's King Ye." Jiang Youpan said softly, as if a huge stone had fallen into a puddle, causing water to splash everywhere.

Tao was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react.

Jiang Youbi stood up and walked back along the roof. Because she was afraid of heights, she walked very slowly and carefully, looking like a little old lady trembling on the roof.

Seeing her like this, Tao who was behind him asked, "Why do you think it's King Ye?"

Jiang Youpan just touched the railing at this moment, and after he stabilized, he replied: "Let's enter the house first, and you come to listen to what I said, is it right?"

Tao Buhuan got up and walked steadily towards Jiang Youpan.

Right now, although Jiang Youbi has reached the railing, he has been gesturing for a long time and is unable to climb over it. When he was tangled and helpless, he only felt someone gently support his waist, and a soft and soft voice came from his ears, "Need help?"

This soft voice blew against Jiang Youpan's ears, making Jiang Youpan's heart numb somewhere.

Where Tao Buhuan could not see, Jiang Youpan's eyes flashed with vigilance.Without turning back to look into Taobuchang's eyes, he forced himself to look ahead, and said in a steady voice, "Help me turn over."

"Okay..." Tao Buhuan supported Jiang Youpan's waist and led her into the tower.

Inside the pagoda were rows of scriptures. Jiang Youpan found a brush and immediately wrote and drew on the rice paper spread out on the table.

"I just suddenly thought of some key information. These people are actually related to King Ye."

Jiang Yousi quickly listed several of the deceased and the case relationships behind the deceased, "The old lady's son is a rich businessman, and the rich businessman represents money; Resources strictly controlled by the imperial court;

Then there is the lame old man in Jiangzhou, whose son Yang Nie is a genius, and he represents talent. "

Jiang Yousi drew three circles on the words represented by these people, and continued: "Resources can be exchanged for money, and talents can be mastered to control the government. In addition, the weapons secretly cast in Daliang Mountain and the bone building bought by the assassin organization... can It will not be ordinary people who plan such a big picture."

Tao Buhuan was shocked, "But this does not mean that it is King Ye. The emperor has so many sons, and there are many powerful princes with foreign surnames like King Gao Sheng in the court. Why do you insist that it is King Ye?"

"Based on the relationship between King Ye and A Chong, and also because King Ye wants to marry you." Jiang Yousi crossed out "talent" and "resources", put down his pen and said lightly, "Because of Yang Nie's intervention, the marriage has been disrupted. He has been running the plan for many years, so he has to adjust the layout of the DPRK;

In addition, the death of Yuezhou Salt Affairs Secretary Zhang Nian made him short of the money that could have been poured into his hands continuously...

The forge of weapons in Daliang Mountain has also been revealed. At this moment, he is short of money and people, and you can just provide him with these two key conditions, so he will try his best to marry you. "

Tao Buhuan was dumbfounded, pondered for a long time and said: "Although I really want to believe you, all this is so sudden, I haven't figured out how to deal with these things..."

Jiang Youbi said: "This incident really shocked me. Let's go back and think about it. If everything is as I expected, how should we go next..."

"it is good--"

The two went down to the first floor, Tao Buhuan put on the mask again, and sent Jiang Youpan to the door, but Jiang Youpan stood at the door and refused to leave.

"What's wrong?" Tao Buhuan asked.

Jiang Youpan carefully looked at her face. After a long time, she took a breath and said, "It's nothing. I wanted to tell you something just now, but now I forgot."

Tao Buhuan smiled and said, "I'll talk about it when you think about it."

"it is good……"

After Jiang Youpan left the temple, she quickened her pace and returned to Dali Temple without looking back. When she returned to the room, she wrote down all the thoughts she had just smoothed out on the paper. She stared at the paper for a long time. The upper point burns to ashes.

"My lord, a child sent you a letter, and told us not to open it. I have to leave it to you to open." An eighth-rank judge handed her an envelope sealed with ink pad.

Jiang Youpan looked at the pattern on the ink pad, frowned slightly, and opened the letter after the magistrate left. The ink pad left on the envelope was the pattern on the wooden sign that Tao Buhuan had lost.

"Master Jiang, seeing a letter is like meeting a face. See you at the third shop in the north of Gongdefang at midnight tonight."

Jiang Yousi stared at the inscription, and there were five delicate and clear characters written on the inscription: Sincerely, Wang Yuji.
