[Comprehensive martial arts] My life will die

Chapter 178 Don't force me to make a move

So far, three people have died in the Hong Ling case. All three of them had their stomachs cut open with a sharp knife, dyed with white silk, and hung on the beam to die.In other words, the murderer's technique was very sophisticated, and he didn't die with a single stab, but was bound to the neck by the blood-stained red silk and hanged.

A murder with such a strong sense of ritual, it is obvious that people in Kaifeng Mansion are also investigating in this direction.But the murderer killed people too quickly, killing one person a day and leaving almost no traces, so it was quite difficult to solve the case.

Tan Zhao went to bed early last night, and woke up when it was dawn.I couldn't fall asleep for a while, so I just got up and practiced after thinking about it.Practicing kung fu is naturally the formula of longevity for self-cultivation and self-cultivation. Both hands of his body have been abolished, so there is no need to think about practicing swords. First, he should cultivate his body and practice his leg skills.

After practicing for less than half an hour, Tan Zhao collected his energy and went to the kitchen to look for food. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhan Zhao and four tall guards. They should be Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and Chao Mahan.

"Five, so early?"

Zhang Long is the most frank. He was also the person who went to the Bai Family Courtyard last time to talk and remind him. He had already recognized Tan Zhao, and said, "Why is it early? You just came back now! It's your son, so early?"

Running errands is really hard, Tan Zhao saw that they gathered around a big round table, and they ate chaoshou with bone broth and fried scallion pancakes.

The cook heard the voice outside, and when she came out, she saw the blind and handsome gentleman. She was brought by Mrs. Bao. She was in her 40s, and she admired young and motivated young people the most. After serving a breakfast, if Tan Zhao didn't refuse, he might have to help him to sit down.

Well, no, he could actually see it.Tan Zhao touched his heart without facts, feeling a little pain in his conscience.

System: It's not a little pain, it's a big pain!

When the cook left, Zhang Long looked at Zhou Qin's Chaoshou, which was about to overflow from his bowl, and then looked at his own. Why was there such a big difference, and said, "My lord, is there too much? I..." Just at the beginning, he was stabbed by Zhao Hu next to him, and he turned around immediately, complaining loudly: "What are you doing, you are talking!"

Zhao Hu was very helpless, brother Yi is really stupid, Mr. Ren couldn't see it, and said that this guy poked people's lungs for no reason.

But Zhang Long glanced at him, and then turned his head... Half of the Chaoshou in the human bowl went down in an instant, why is it so edible?He looked at the plain yarn on the man's eyes again, and couldn't help being amazed: "Young master, you have such a unique skill, I admire you!"

"..." To be honest, he also admired Hua Manlou when he ate like this.

It’s really heaven’s way of reincarnation, who will the heavens spare? Tan Zhao smiled lightly, knowing that Zhang Long had no other intentions: “Thank you, I’m just familiar with it. Speaking of which, you guys went to the Bai’s other courtyard to investigate the case in the middle of the night. Have you met Brother Bai?"

Just as Zhan Zhao put down his chopsticks, he moved slightly when he heard the words, and said, "How did you know we went to the White House?"

Zhang Long wanted to say something, but Zhao Hu stopped him.Seeing the fake but not seeing it, Tan Zhao was slightly taken aback: "Isn't it?"

"No." Zhan Zhao denied.

Tan Zhao was also quite curious: "But the five of you have a strong peony fragrance on your body. It definitely didn't come from yesterday. It must be within one or two hours. I smelled it in the courtyard of Baiguan's family yesterday, and thought it was... ..."

Zhan Zhao's expression changed instantly when he heard the words, and he looked at Zhang Long, Zhang Long immediately became alert, and he didn't even bother to eat it: "Guard Zhan, the General's Mansion indeed planted a whole yard of peonies, but it's so far away, I thought It's from female family members."

It turned out that the third deceased was from the General's Mansion!

Tan Zhao didn't mean to help people solve the case, it was a coincidence: "I don't know if you have met Butler Bai, I had contact with him when I was recuperating in the White Mansion, how should I put it, seeing how the Butler Bai is Those who like peonies."

Wealthy peonies, thick and gorgeous, magnificent, like a beauty in the most beautiful years, amazing when the flowers bloom, and even more amazing when the flowers fall, such delicate flowers can only be planted by those who love and cherish flowers Red peonies.

"That's right, a man with a big horse and a sword like General Li is not at odds with a garden full of red peonies."

However, Zhan Zhao had already stood up with his sword in hand. He immediately asked Wang Chao Mahan to go to the first family and the nearby Baifu other courtyard, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to go to the General's Mansion, and he hurried to report the case to Mr. Bao.

When the cook came out with another pot of freshly baked scallion pancakes, Tan Zhao was the only one left.

"Hey, I haven't finished my meal yet, and I'm going to deal with the case again. The murderer who killed a thousand knives should be beheaded sooner." After the cook complained, she put the pancakes in front of Tan Zhao: "Master, eat more. Eat more injuries to heal faster."

Tan Zhao couldn't hold back the cook's enthusiasm, and when Fang wanted to escape, he heard Bai Yutang's idle voice from behind: "I can smell scallion oil from far away, Si Niang, your cooking skills are really getting better and better."

The cook, Si Niang, heard the voice, immediately got up and started copying her hands. It was obvious that Bai Yutang was a frequent visitor to the cafeteria of Kaifeng Mansion.

"Have you found the murderer?"

Tan Zhao said this on purpose, and Bai Yutang couldn't help being annoyed: "Fifth Master searched Kaifeng City last night. There are people from the rivers and lakes, but they are so skillful at wielding knives..."

"how?"

"No one." Discouraged.

Tan Zhao thought of the peony just now, and asked, "Brother Bai, don't be discouraged, but housekeeper Bai likes red peony very much?"

Oh, this, Bai Yutang thought for a while, and it seemed to be the case: "I don't know, I rarely live there when I come to Kaifeng, it's too remote, and my elder brother bought it to curry favor with my sister-in-law. You What is this asking for?"

Tan Zhao told Bai Yutang what he had just discovered, and Bai Yutang immediately stood up after hearing this, "Wada must know about this, he is the adopted son of Butler Bai, let's go."

"Go? Where are you going?"

Tan Zhao was dragged away by Bai Yutang with a piece of scallion pancake in his mouth. Everyone in Kaifeng Mansion was surrounding the Hong Ling case, and Bai Yutang easily took him away.

Bai Yutang originally wanted to take someone back with lightness kung fu, but he realized after reaching the roof... "You really know martial arts! Then you were made so miserable by a scholar?"

Tan Zhao had an innocent face: "I don't know either, I woke up and practiced indiscriminately in front of the picture on my arm."

"..." Really, as long as you are happy.

All the way back to the Bai family courtyard, Bai Yutang bumped into Wang Chao Ma Han head-on when he entered the door. The two of them still had this person in their hands, and when they took a closer look, it was Hetian, the foster son of the housekeeper Bai.

"What is this for! The government must have a certificate to arrest people!"

Wang Chao glanced at Zhou Qin behind him, not understanding why the scholar appeared here so quickly, he was suspicious, but he spoke not slowly: "Hero Bai, this man saw us two coming, he packed up his belongings and ran away."

Bai Yutang turned his eyes, and Hetian immediately lowered his head, seeing that there was something wrong in his heart.After another period of silence, he suddenly yelled, but at the age of fourteen, it was unlikely that he was the murderer.

"be honest!"

This honesty, I went back to Kaifeng Mansion honestly. Bao Zheng's face was born to intimidate criminals. Even if he didn't commit a crime, as long as he had a ghost in his heart, he would be scared to death. He Tian looked up, Immediately cowardly into a group, ask what to say.

But it turned out that Butler Bai had some premonitions before his death, so he left a letter in the house of adopted son Hetian, in which he wrote that if he died, Hetian should leave immediately, as far away as possible, and never return to Kaifeng.As for peony flowers, Wada Yandao's foster father cherishes them very much, never leaves them to others, always takes care of them by himself, and occasionally stares at peony flowers in a trance.

Premonition?Someone seeking revenge or revenge?

Of course, Tan Zhao shouldn't worry about these problems. Bai Yutang didn't know where he went after eating.Tan Zhao was idle and bored peeling beans for Mrs. Bao and Siniang in the backyard of Kaifeng Mansion. While peeling, a servant came and said that it was Zhou Zhuangyuan who came to send the invitation.

……

Mrs. Bao naturally knew Zhou Qin's identity, and she was startled when she heard the words, and then she recovered her expression: "Understood, master is not here?"

"The master went to the general's mansion to investigate the case."

"What about Mr. Gongsun?"

"I don't know, Madam, do you want me to return him?"

Mrs. Bao thought for a while: "Go and lead people to the main hall, I will go soon."

The servant had to resign, and Madam Bao left in a hurry, but Tan Zhao's beans...couldn't be peeled off.Seeing that he was absent-minded, Si Niang couldn't bear him to ruin the beans again, so she sent him away.

As soon as he left the courtyard, Fifth Master Bai appeared from nowhere, with anger still on his face: "I heard that that bastard surnamed Zhou is here? Do you want Fifth Master to teach him a lesson for you?"

"... My surname is Zhou too, don't scold me too."

Bai Wuye hates iron but not steel: "Tell me about you, you have been bullied like this, and you are not angry at all? You are pinched by mud!"

"No, I'm angry, very angry."

"..."

"Let's go, let's meet this crippled Zhou."

When Bai Yutang heard this, he immediately patted his brother's shoulder, wrapped his arms around his shoulder and nodded, "That's right, I have Fifth Master backing me up, so you can do whatever you want, if he dares to hit you, Fifth Master loses!"

It's been more than a month since the test, and the imperial court has issued an edict to Zhou Qin, the number one scholar, to edit the Hanlin, and to be a seventh-rank official. No relatives, please keep the tablet of parents by your side, no need to return home.

Prime Minister Wang pityed him for his loneliness in the past and admired his talent very much, so he betrothed his beloved daughter to him.

It's just that it is very cumbersome for a court minister to marry a daughter according to the Basic Law. After a set of procedures, three months is not short, and three years is not long. Sending invitations in January to set a date?Why did he feel so bad?

I'm afraid I'm not going to become a catcher?That week's bum was a fake No. [-] champion. Although he was also fake, it was still true when rounded up. If he was exposed and returned to his original position, would it be...

No, no, he is blind and useless now, and the official appointed him to be a failure, definitely not, Tan Zhao touched the little heart he had lifted up, and put it back calmly.
