Chapter 589: Death's Wings Descend to Zhongjing

Although she is not very old, she has seen a lot of knowledge over the years, and because she has encountered all kinds of strange things, she has already exercised a strong mind.

However, at this moment, the scene in front of him still made Qiao An feel surprised, Pei Yan looked here, looked there, everything was seen and pointed to the position next to him, "Niangniang, look here!" Pei Yan said as he pointed in front of him.

On the wall standing in front of me, there is a saying, "The wings of death have come, and God has come to do the right thing for heaven!" General Cheng stared at the wall, frowned, and said, "It's strange, I didn't have these things when I got here just now, how can I have them at this moment?" ”

The three of them had just approached the wall, and the words on the wall were moving slightly.

Shen Qiao'an took a closer look and found that the words were not written, but a group of ghostly squirming termites, which seemed to be controlled by some unknowable force, and only moved like that.

Pei Yan stared at the wall, the muscles in the corners of his eyes were trembling, and he didn't know what he was thinking, General Cheng was stunned, and it took a long time to find his voice.

"Haunted?"

The three of them were wondering what the situation was, how much Shen Qiaoan hoped that Li Zhongxuan would be there, if Li Zhongxuan saw the scene of this murder, he would definitely see something different for the first time.

As for General Cheng, he felt very strange, he recklessly approached the wall, stared at the wriggling termite, and muttered, "How did the ant turn white?" As he was talking, he suddenly noticed that there were black ants in the termites, and the ants moved very quickly, as if they were foraging.

"Ahh With an exclamation, a woman stood up in the ruins, and the slope was disheveled, and he stared at the wall before he glanced at it and ran out frantically.

"Wings of death, wings of death, the gods want to do the way for heaven!" The mother-in-law staggered away, and Shen Qiaoan was afraid that something would happen, so he hurriedly asked General Cheng to obstruct it. General Cheng came back after a while, "The person has been saved, but he is unconscious." ”

The person was saved, but as soon as the crazy mother-in-law woke up, she talked nonsense, and the neighbors were panicked, because they saw the general and Joan coming out, and hurriedly approached.

"It's a curse! It's a curse! Is that right? Empress? Is that right? Checkmate? "It was an old woman who was asking.

Shen Qiaoan saw that the general was about to nod, and immediately choked: "No! Someone did it on purpose, because it is not yet possible to find out what caused their death, so the neighbors will move to the rest of the people's houses for a while, and we will let you know the results of our research. ”

The crowd was so terrified that they could only nod and leave.

Qiao Anxin was uneasy, and after she went back, she also began to wonder what the cause of this case was and what the process was?

"Niangniang, drink a little honey grapefruit water." The maid who was waiting for Qiao An brought a glass of water, and Shen Qiao An stretched out her hand coldly, but before she could hold the quilt, it spilled on the ground with a bang, and the ground was wet.

"Ahh The girl was shocked and said, "The slave should die!" ”

"It's fine!" There was a carpet on the ground, and Shen Qiaoan saw that the tea cup was also intact, and after picking it up, he said, "You find Master Pei, I'll clean it up by myself here." The girl turned and left.

Suddenly, Pei Yan was pushed into the room in a wheelchair, Qiao An got up, "I'm sorry, it's already the third watch in the middle of the night, and you are not good at doing things, I shouldn't have bothered you, but there is nothing I can do, so I have to come to you to discuss." ”

"!" Pei Yan seemed to know the case well, he threw away the file in his hand, "Nine times out of ten, it was a purposeful murder, they asked for silver, and the person who was killed was surnamed Murong, and his person was the household servant of my court." ”

"Tobe Squiro?" Joan stretched out her hand, "Give me the file." ”

Master Pei didn't dare to slack off, and gave the file to Shen Qiao'an, she stared at it, seemed to understand something, and smiled coldly, "It turned out to be the household servant." ”

He also asked, "How often does this person offend people in the imperial court?" ”

"Niangniang, the court has been taken care of by his subordinates for a year and a half, and his subordinates dare to pack tickets This person cannot have enemies, he is mainly responsible for drafting some things in the household department, population and the like! Buried in books every day, people are very easy-going, how can there be enemies. ”

"He's rich?" Joan guessed.

Master Pei shook his head, "The mansion that Niangniang saw was distributed to them by the imperial court, and as for the monthly silver, Lord Murong is only three hundred taels a year." Joan counted on her fingers.

"Why doesn't that man make money and kill him?"

"According to the research just now, my subordinates have gradually come to the conclusion that Niangniang looks at this." Master Pei handed over a piece of paper, and Qiao An held it to see that it was a map of the emperor's capital.

To be precise, it is a small sample of Murong Mansion on Fengtian Street, and Master Pei said: "This Murong Mansion is located in the middle of Fengtian Street, I have to say that it is a treasure of feng shui, with roads extending in all directions on both sides, if you want to make trouble, this is the best place." ”

"I know, General Cheng is already investigating, and anyone who is close to Murong Mansion today may be the culprit!"

When he heard this, he nodded repeatedly.

"As for the white ant, what is the explanation? This is also a top priority, if you don't give the people an explanation, they are panicked, and it's not a matter of much. Shen Qiao'an looked into the distance.

"Queen!" Master Pei's eyes widened, staring at the carpet, Qiao An looked towards the focus of his gaze, and found that there was a black wriggling ant on the ground, she suddenly thought of what happened before, and at the same time, the answer was solved.

"I see, it's honey, it's honey!" Qiao An told the girl about serving tea to herself, and after hearing it, Master Pei said with a smile: "Let's give an Anmin notice first, and the rest of the things will be dealt with later." ”

A moment later, there was a line of words at the door of the Public Works Department: "The murderer is tricky, and the god arm helps to solve the case." After the people saw it, they were relieved.

But what made Shen Qiaoan wonder was, what happened to the bitter lord that could breathe fire? Is it really a curse?

The same thing happened on the night of the next day, the place of the crime was only separated by a wall from the place of yesterday's crime, Shen Qiaoan and General Cheng arrived, all the people in this room were dead, and there were no bodies on the ground, but it was certain that they must have struggled very painfully.

Joan saw the scratching marks on the door, which were imprinted on the door by the bloody fingers waving incessantly, a family of five.

The people fell into panic again, and Master Pei came panting, "This is a backup official of the Ministry of Rites, a five-rank official, his monthly silver is not very generous and his knees are desolate, and he has two husbands and wives and a widowed mother, a maid and an old mangtou, a family of five. ”

Pei Yan stood behind the door, staring at the scratching marks on the door panel, he was shocked, the power of death is incomparable, but so is people's desire to survive.

Where do ordinary people dare to come in? They didn't know exactly how the other person died, and the flames were gradually extinguished.

Joan was at a loss, and after checking again, she found that the family had been ransacked, and the little valuable things in the house were gone, and the words that threatened them were still "written" on the walls with honey.

Shen Qiaoan was surprised.

"Now it is almost certain that the perpetrator's purpose is money, we all rushed here as soon as possible, and there is no gold, silver and jewelry in the house, which is too abnormal!"

"General Cheng, did the mother-in-law speak today?"

"Nope!" General Cheng said again: "At the end of yesterday, the general was patrolling Fengtian Street, and he didn't see any suspicious people, so it is very likely that they were ambushed in Fengtian Street in advance. ”

"The dead are all four-grade officials of the imperial court, this is they warning us! It's clearly working with us! General Cheng was furious and clenched his fists hard.

"Continue to patrol, if it is not unexpected, his neighbor or the person opposite him will be unlucky tonight, Lao Cheng, you and Du Bian will go to squat." General Cheng went.

But this night was calm, General Cheng and they had already told Shen Qiao'an's arrangement to the neighbors, basically every household on this street had their soldiers, more than six or seven people, and as few as two or three.

They ate and lived with them, watched and listened to all directions, and immediately sounded the horn to warn at the slightest disturbance, but they arranged everything well, and waited for the criminals to fall into the trap This night was quiet, and no strange phenomenon happened.

On the second day, General Cheng's eyes were full of bloodshots, "Niangniang, last night," he said, yawning sleepily, "last night there was no situation, and the brothers were all tormented. ”

"Go back and rest, I have arranged for the red lady to change the guard, and you will be in charge tonight." General Cheng was indeed tired and went to rest early.

Qiao An wrote a letter to tell Li Zhongxuan about the matter, and after Li Zhongxuan saw it, he couldn't guess it, but Li Zhongxuan recommended a person, who was Qiao An's old acquaintance.

After General Cheng left, Luo Huaiyi, the boss of Donghuchun, arrived.

"Brother Luo, what do you think?"

"It must be murder for money! Qiao An, there is a thing called the Divine Fire Pill on the rivers and lakes, this thing is nitrate, charcoal and sulfur, and there is a layer of sugar coating on the outside of the Divine Fire Pill, once the sugar coating melts, it will form a violent flame. ”

"I'll do the experiment!" Luo Huaiyi grabbed a dog outside, put the Divine Fire Pill in a steamed bun and threw it out, the big yellow dog jumped up, and after eating the Divine Fire Pill, it spit out his tongue in less than a quarter of an hour, and at the same time a fierce fire erupted from his throat.

The hound struggled in the courtyard for a moment, and died.

His painful condition was no different from the prisoners Qiao An saw, and Shen Qiao An closed his eyes in panic when he saw this.

"Since I know that someone is pretending to be a ghost, what makes people strange is that these two bitter masters are kind people, and they have not offended anyone by being cautious in their lives, but why have they been killed?"

"Joan, cautious people sometimes do wrong things, and besides, sometimes someone's presence is a threat to someone!" Joan understood.

"Forget it, don't talk about this." Shen Qiaoan stared at Luo Huaiyi: "Brother Luo, who do you say the next victim will be?" "This Luo Huaiyi is naturally not sure.

"I'll change into my night clothes, walk around tonight, I won't wear a mask, give me a gold medal, and the person who meets General Cheng will not be able to explain it clearly." With Luo Huaiyi's help, Shen Qiaoan was naturally relieved and immediately gave the gold medal to Luo Huaiyi.

That night, Luo Huaiyi launched light kung fu to cooperate with General Cheng's investigation, and the two of them were bright and dark, but there were more than 100 households in Fengtian Street, all of which had been checked, and there were no clues at all.

As if the gangsters had all control over their actions, they acted, and he acted.

Qiao An was at a loss, and the brothers who were squatting on the fifth watch, General Cheng, Luo Huaiyi, etc., all came back, and everyone exchanged and found that there were no clues at all.

"Don't give up," Luo Huaiyi patted General Cheng on the shoulder: "You have to persevere, they already knew about our actions before tonight, so they were prepared in advance." Luo Huaiyi seems to have a good understanding of all this.

A few people had just changed shifts with the Red Lady, and a woman rushed in outside, "Report!" Report! Shen Qiao'an looked at it steadily, and the person who came was Cai Wei.
