Chapter 596: [Murder]


Zhanzhao and others so coincidentally bumped into the unveiling of the new building of Qiu Tian, the richest man in Suzhou, but who knew that there was a puppet-like corpse hanging on the sign.

This building is tall, the signboard is also large, and the three words "Zengfu Building" on the plaque seem a little ironic against the backdrop of the corpse.

Qiu Tiantian is rich and likes to be magnificent, so his requirement for building this building is that he can see the signboard when he walks to the city gate, so now even the people at the city gate have seen the corpse hanging high.

Since then, everyone doesn't remember Zengfu Building, which is collectively known as the restaurant where "corpses are hung on the open signboard".

Who is this who died, Zhanzhao didn't know when they first arrived, but many locals obviously recognized it, and they heard someone shouting, "Isn't this Yuan La, the third master of Shihutang?"

Zhan Zhao was stunned, and looked at Bai Yutang, "the three masters of Shihutang" Bai Yutang frowned, "I seem to have heard of it." ” "Let's just say that Shihutang won't send anyone here today."

"When did you hang it up?"

"Evil Door" The crowd began to talk.

Zhan Zhao and the others observed the expressions of the people of the three major sects present, how to say that the expressions were different, and they seemed to have hidden secrets.

It stands to reason that this scene is quite amazing no matter how you look at it, but the people of the three major sects don't have too many surprised expressions on their faces except for frowning, not to mention whether they already knew that Yuan La would die, just this bizarre death, such a calm reaction, it should not be the first time to see it.

In addition, the discord between the four major sects is also obvious, at least these three parties have some emotions in their eyes, and there is no sympathy or anything like that.

Tianzun raised his face and shook his head, "Tsk, you can't have a peaceful day, this New Year's Day" Yin Hou also shook his head, the second elder ignored the case, ran to the painting boat on the side, sat and asked Yueya and Chen Xing'er to make tea and snacks to eat, while continuing to study antiques.

Bao Yan and Pang Yu originally wanted to see the excitement, but they were too tired to lift their feet, so they also went to sit and rest, the little fourth son climbed onto Tianzun's lap and sat to watch the antiques, Xiao Liang also held a copper kettle that he didn't know what age he was looking at.

These people have a festive atmosphere, and they are very good.

Gongsun pointed to the plaque, "Do you want to take the corpse down?"

"Don't Move" Several people in the rivers and lakes hurriedly stopped him, and Qiu Tian also waved his hand to say no.

Gongsun frowned puzzled.

Zhao Pu also wondered, if he didn't get it down, would he hang it and watch it Bai Yutang said in a low voice, "This is the rule of the rivers and lakes, you have to wait for the people of Shihutang to collect the corpse." ” Gongsun looked at Zhanzhao, which means that the corpse may be destroyed, and there should be a lot of clues on the corpse.

Zhan Zhao understood what Gongsun meant, but he was also a little helpless, Shi Hutang was willing to hand over the body to the government, and blamed the rivers and lakes for always coming to the rivers and lakes, which is also an unwritten rule.

Besides, their identity at this time was just passing by, although he was a guard of Kaifeng Mansion, but this case happened in Suzhou, and it should have been taken over by the Suzhou Mansion Yamen.

However, there is no need to ask if this yamen dares to send someone to snatch the corpse from Shi Hutang, it must be that they dare not make a first exploration this time, and it is not easy to make too much trouble, otherwise it will startle the snake.

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao and shook his head slightly.

Zhan Zhao understood in his heart that Bai Yutang was probably not worried about anything else, but was afraid that he would come out and offend too many people in the rivers and lakes at once, and suffer losses in the future.

But if Zhanzhao doesn't say anything, it will arouse the suspicion of the other party even more.

So, Zhan Zhao asked Qiu Tian, "Shopkeeper Qiu, is this troublesome for you or trouble for Shihutang?"

"Uh" Qiu Tian opened his mouth, looking at several others, feeling that he didn't know what to say, and he didn't dare to say nonsense.

On the side, Luo Manjin looked at the expressions of everyone in Kaifeng Mansion.

The people from Eryan Palace and the East Imperial Gate were also observant, and everyone was a little unsure if Zhanzhao really happened to be passing by, and they didn't know what was going on "Why don't you report to the official" Zhao Pu saw that he hadn't come to observe for a long time, and he was a little puzzled.

Gongsun was also dissatisfied, "There are so many onlookers, why don't the yamen of Suzhou Mansion come to catch a quick catch" On the side, I heard Hua Yichen suddenly smile and say, "Not all fast catches are as good as Kaifeng Mansion's fast catch." ” After Hua Yichen finished speaking, everyone looked at him, and everyone tacitly understood that Hua Yichen was ridiculing Zhanzhao.

Situ Yue and Qin Bian both looked at Hua Yichen speechlessly, after all, they all know that Hua Yichen is a person who likes to stir up trouble, lest the world be chaotic, what is the good way to provoke Zhanzhao Bai Yutang glanced at Hua Yichen.

Situ Yue had already clearly felt Bai Yutang's displeasure, so he had no choice but to hold his forehead, and offended the two of them in one go.

Everyone is waiting to see how Zhanzhao will deal with it, and when they hear that he is known for his good temper, will they endure it At this time, I saw Zhanzhao holding his arms and nodded, "It makes sense."

Everyone was stunned After speaking, Zhan Zhao shouted to the people in the distance, "Hurry up and report to the official, let the people of the yamen hurry up, Hua Shaoxia is afraid of arresting fast and slow, there are people here."

The people who were so active and watching all went to Suzhou Mansion to report the case "Ahem" Many people on the side were choked with saliva, and everyone gloated and looked at the dust.

The smile on Hua Yichen's face also froze for a moment, although he quickly regained the smile just now.

Bai Yutang observed the expressions of the people in Eryan Palace and Luo Manjin at this time, it stands to reason that the four major sects are not in harmony, and they should be very happy to see Hua Yichen eating deflated, but otherwise, at this time, the two families also frowned, as if they were dissatisfied with Hua Yichen's mouth.

Situ Yue glared at Hua Yichen fiercely and told you to have nothing to do, you have met something powerful Hua Yichen also scratched his chin.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly and asked him, "Hua Shaoxia is still satisfied that the prefect of Suzhou seems to be negligent in managing the local area, do you want to sue him for dereliction of duty?"

Hua Yichen was embarrassed, and the people in the rivers and lakes present all looked at him with squinted eyes, who didn't know that the officials of Suzhou Mansion didn't dare to care about this martial arts sect at all.

But Zhanzhao is from Kaifeng Mansion, Bao Zheng's patrol is in the Demon Palace, and there is still a Zhao Pu standing in front of him, in case things get stiff, Suzhou Mansion wants to keep the black yarn hat, and the days when the government turns a blind eye will come to an end in the future, and it is the Jianghu sect that is unlucky Zhanzhao was not easy to speak, but this time it was good, Hua Yichen sent him an excuse, naturally he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, anyway, it was Hua Yichen who proposed to report to the official.

Therefore, people can owe everything, but they can't owe with their mouths.

Situ Yue bowed his hand to Zhan Zhao and said, "The prefect of Suzhou has always been fair and honest, my junior brother doesn't know how important he is, don't blame Nanxia." ” Zhan Zhao waved his hand lightly, indicating where to say.

On the side, Bai Yutang and Zhao Pu looked at the scenery with their hands behind their backs, Gongsun looked up at the corpse, and the rest of the people in Kaifeng Mansion felt that they should call you to provoke Zhanzhao He just had an honest face, and he was really a bully At this time, someone with good deeds had already run to report to the prefect of Suzhou, saying that there was a lawsuit for his life, and the body was hung on the plaque of Qiu Tianxin's restaurant.

When the prefect of Suzhou heard this, he pouted, saying that it must be another revenge in the rivers and lakes, don't care, go slowly.

But the person who reported the news said that Zhanzhao of Kaifeng Mansion happened to be passing by, and the Nine Princes were also there.

When the prefect heard this, he hurriedly looked for the official hat, and ran out while putting on the official uniform, and heard that Bao Zheng was going to patrol the south, but didn't he go to the Demon Palace, how did Zhanzhao run here and get a homicide, and the official government still couldn't rub it, so the people of the rivers and lakes had to toss it themselves, which made Lord Bao know that he was still not mixed The gate of Suzhou Mansion was open, and a large number of officials poured out, and the officials may have not been dispatched for too long, and the training clothes and hats are not too uniform, and the weapons are even more varied.

Zou Liang frowned when he looked at it from a distance, if this is to put all the military laws in the barracks to serve.

Zhanzhao felt that it was fortunate that Master Bao did not come, otherwise the prefect would have lost his black yarn hat today.

Lin Yehuo is not a martial arts sect in the Central Plains, so he has no taboos, so he asked the Jianghu people beside him curiously, "Isn't this Shihutang one of the four major sects?"

Everyone nodded yes.

"Is this offending people, how did you get it like this" Lin Yehuo was puzzled, "Who did you offend the spider spirit?"

Many people in the rivers and lakes have heard the rumors, and they know that this case may have something to do with the four major sects, so they don't dare to say much, so they laugh at Lin Yehuo.

Lin Yehuo touched his chin and looked at Zou Liang's situation Zou Liang shrugged his shoulders and God knew that there were many things for people in the rivers and lakes Everyone in the four major sects frowned, if it goes on like this, things will get bigger and bigger, and now it has alarmed the government, and if the big man Bao goes out to patrol here in a few days, it will definitely be a thorough investigation Zhanzhao asked Qiu Tian, "Is there something wrong?"

Qiu Tian didn't say much, so he said, "I don't know, maybe it's a revenge against Shihutang, or a personal grudge."

"If it's a personal grudge or a revenge against Shihu Hall," Bai Yutang interjected coldly, "Then the corpse should be hung at the door of Shihu Hall, why is it hanging upstairs on your floor, it seems that it was deliberately shown to the various sects." ” Bai Yutang looked at Luo Manjin again.

Luo Manjin spread his hands, "Anyway, it's not me who died, and I can't drink this wine today."

After speaking, he bowed his hand to Qiu Tian slightly, and said goodbye.

The people from Eryan Palace and the East Emperor Gate didn't want to stay for a long time, so they signaled to go first.

It's just that before the three of them left, they heard a voice full of energy and internal strength, "No one is allowed to leave" Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a group of men and horses coming in the distance, all dressed in black, the first one was tall and burly, with black hair and sideburns and beard, and his appearance was a little vicious.

The people of Luomanjin, Donghuangmen, and Eryan Palace all frowned.

Qiu Tian told Zhanzhao them, "This is the hall master of Shihu Hall, full of Shihu. ” Just listening to the internal force of voice and speech, you know that Man Shihu is a master.

Before the horse approached, everyone looked at Manshihu again, and it should be in his early forties this year, and it was even more terrifying to look closely, with a pair of ringed eyes, and the eyes were round, as if they were about to fall.

Man Shihu quickly arrived outside the crowd, got off the horse and looked up in front of the building, and saw that he was short of breath, and finally roared angrily, "Who killed my third brother?"

The second master of Shihutang also came, compared to Man Shihu, he looked a lot more gentle, about the same age as Man Shihu, dressed in a gray robe, holding a gray sword in his hand.

Qiu Tian told Zhanzhao again, "He is the second hall master of Shihu Hall, Pan Li. ” Shi Hutang's subordinates went upstairs and took down Yuan La's body.

At this time, the prefect of Suzhou finally gasped for breath, ran this part of the way, and arrived in front of everyone.

"See, Lord Ninety-Nine."

As soon as the prefect of Suzhou stopped in front of Bai Yutang, he gave him a big salute.

Bai Yutang frowned and took a step back, letting go of Zhao Pu beside him.

Zhao Puzhi shook his head, what kind of official is this, no wonder those Jianghu people are lawless.

Man Shihu looked heartbroken, holding Yuan La's corpse and crying, it didn't look like a dead fellow disciple, but more like a dead brother.

Pan Li looked calmer, came over to say hello to Qiu Tian, and frowned slightly when he saw that the prefect was also there.

Qiu Tian hurriedly asked, "Why are the second masters and the third masters?"

Pan Li said, "My third brother went out this morning to congratulate Qiu Yuan on behalf of Shihutang. ” Qiu Tian was surprised, "I went out this morning" Panry nodded.

Qiu Tian looked up at the plaque, as if he felt incredible.

"What's the problem?"

Zhan Zhao asked curiously.

Qiu Tiandao, "This signboard of mine was hung last night, but the silk was hung this morning, and after the silk was hung, I have not broken people in this building, and I have been here all morning, when were these three masters hung up?"

After hearing Qiu Tian's words, everyone present discussed that there were not only many people in the rivers and lakes here, but also many people watching, the New Year, the streets were full of people, and there were people from morning to night to watch this building, when was this corpse hung up Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and they also felt strange.

At this time, I saw Pan Li look at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, arched his hand slightly, and asked Zhan Zhao, "This is not Lord Zhan of Kaifeng Mansion."

Zhan Zhao nodded yes Pan Li didn't say much, but said to the Suzhou prefect on the side, "We don't report this case to the official, it's a grievance between the rivers and lakes." ” "Uh" The prefect of Suzhou opened his mouth, looked at Zhanzhao and then at Zhao Pu.

At this time, the people of Shihutang had already brought the coffin, put Yuan La's body into the burial, loaded it into a carriage, and transported it back to Shihutang.

Man Shihu wiped his tears and looked around, and asked, "Everyone, who saw the murderer of my third brother?"

The people in the rivers and lakes looked at each other, but naturally they didn't see it.

Man Shihu finally looked at the people of Eryan Palace, Luojiazhai and Donghuangmen.

The four sides looked at each other for a while, it seemed that there was some kind of communication, everything was silent, this weird atmosphere, outsiders couldn't understand.

Man Shihu flicked his sleeves for the last time, and said to his opponent, "Go" After speaking, his subordinates pushed the cart away, and Man Shihu didn't forget to glare at the people of the other three major sects fiercely before leaving.

The prefect of Suzhou is still stupid.

Zhan Zhao asked Pan Li, "This" It's just that Pan Li didn't give Zhanzhao a chance to speak, but arched his hand and said, "Thank you Nanxia for your concern, but this is my Shihutang's personal grudge, the rivers and lakes are in trouble, this is the rule." ” After saying that, he turned around and left.

Zhan Zhao took a look at what Bai Yutang was doing Bai Yutang's eyes soothed him.

Zhan Zhao squinted.

Gongsun felt that it was not like words, and looked at the Suzhou prefect who could only pant and didn't even say a whole sentence with some disgust.

The people of the three major sects hurriedly withdrew, and Qiu Tian was unlucky on the first day of opening, and he was in no mood to hold any unveiling ceremony, so he asked the guys to put away all the firecrackers and firecrackers.

The people of the rivers and lakes also dispersed one after another.

Zhan Zhao and the others' initial exploration was not very smooth, but they also noticed that there was an article in it, but fortunately, it didn't seem to reveal their intentions too much.

Qiu Tian didn't want to invite everyone to the restaurant where he had just died, but he didn't want to miss the opportunity to make friends with so many legendary figures, so he told Zhan Zhao that he would deal with the affairs in the building first, and bring the chef to visit in person tomorrow.

Bai Yutang just asked him to come to Wuzhuang, in fact, needless to say, the fifth master also knew where to find them, because the only house in Suzhou Mansion that could be comparable to his family was Wuzhuang on this Trap Island.

Zhan Zhao and the others got on the painting boat and prepared to return to Zhuangzi.

At this time, I saw a person running over from the shore, jumping and waving to Bai Yutang, "Young Master" When everyone turned their faces, they saw that it was a young man in his sixties, with a gray beard and a familiar face Bai Yutang asked the painting boat to dock and pick up the old man on the boat.

Yue'er and Chenxing'er both went over to greet them, "Chengbo, why are you here?"

Who came was a steward of Trap Island, Lu Cheng.

The scale of the trap island is huge, there are several housekeepers alone, Lu Cheng is specially outside, where there is any wedding banquet, the five island owners of the trap island do not attend, so they send him there.

Lu Cheng got on the boat and told everyone that the Trap Island and Qiu Tian had some business dealings, so this time Qiu Tian sent a post, and Uncle Lu Fang asked him to send a congratulatory gift, but he didn't expect to meet Bai Yutang and them.

Lu Cheng actually found Bai Yutang just now, but he was afraid of causing trouble to his young master, so he didn't say anything, and when everyone dispersed, he ran over.

Everyone was worried that no one would ask, so they asked Lu Cheng, "How long have you been here?"

"It's been two days, I just arrived yesterday."

Lu Cheng shook his head as he spoke, "This Suzhou Mansion is not peaceful, and people have died for two days in a row."

Everyone was stunned.

Zhan Zhao was surprised, "You mean, there were also dead people yesterday" "That's right" Lu Cheng nodded, touching his chin and pondering, "It's also an evil sect, and the way of death is the same, it's really like offending a spider." ” :
