"This man was killed by cutting his neck with a knife." an older dark guard said, "and the weapon used by the other party is a crescent moon sabre. The sabre technique is accurate and killed with one sabre. Obviously, it's not an ordinary person."
Moon bending knife?
Xu Mingyi changed his face slightly.
When she mentioned moon bending sabre, she naturally thought of a master who was very good at using it.
But the man could no longer hold the knife since his right hand was injured in the early years——
It shouldn't be him.
no
Or not necessarily
Xu Mingyi's eyes flashed slightly and said in a voice, "please carefully identify the wound and see if you can tell whether the murderer used the knife with his right hand or his left hand?"
As a martial artist, she knows very well that people who know enough about weapons can judge many details only by the shape of the wound.
The dark guard responded.
Wu Chiu also took two steps forward, endured the stench and crouched down to look at it.
Ordinary people use a knife with their right hand. Xu Mingyi wants to use it to distinguish what he wants.
When he couldn't make a judgment, the young man stood up, looked at Xu Mingyi and said, "it's his left hand -"
Xu Mingyi looked slightly changed.
It's really a left hand!
Dark Wei also spoke quickly to confirm Wu Tsung's judgment.
Wu Tsui didn't ask Xu Mingyi any more. He only ordered his men to explore the neighborhood carefully. After confirming that there were no other clues, he asked Xu Mingyi: "how is Miss Xu going to place the body? Report to the official or dispose of it by herself?"
"Since you are the servant of Yongan Bo's house, you'd better leave it to Bo's house."
It's up to Yongan Bo's house to decide whether to hand it over or hide it from the government to find out the truth.
No matter what Bo Fu chooses to do, the pros and cons are almost half and half, so the impact on the next thing will not be too great.
Wu Tsung nodded.
Then he looked at the four dark guards: "in order to avoid going wrong, you leave one person here until the body is taken away tomorrow."
Several dark guards looked at each other in a complicated mood.
It took a while to decide which unlucky guy left with his eyes.
"Let's go."
Wu Tsung turned and left. After taking two steps, he didn't see Xu Mingyi follow up, so he looked back.
She took out a very small porcelain vase from her close purse, handed it to the young dark guard who was left, and said, "it can be used to prevent mosquitoes and spread it on her nose to dispel some smell."
In the end, people were left because they helped her.
There are a lot of mosquitoes in the forest at night. If you stay like this for a night, I'm afraid you'll be bitten so that your parents won't recognize it.
Under the moonlight, the little girl looked calm and honest. The young dark guard was quite frightened and looked at her son at a loss.
"Since Miss Xu has a good intention, you can accept it."
Dark Wei hurried forward and took it with both hands: "thank you, Miss Xu."
Xu Mingyi nodded slightly and turned away with ah Zhu.
Wu Tsui took another look at the exquisite porcelain vase in the hand of dark Wei before taking people away.
When the party got out of the woods, Wu Chiu suggested, "it's still early to leave the city gate. If you don't find a nearby town for a night, you can return to the city at dawn."
Xu Mingyi thought a little and nodded.
In fact, it's possible for her to spend a night in the carriage, but Wu Chiu came on horseback. You can't ask someone to sleep on horseback all night, can you?
"Pingwan town is five miles away. The maidservant knows how to go." ah Zhu said at the right time.
Pingwan town can be called bustling and lively. It is naturally more convenient to find an inn for lodging.
The carriage drove slowly towards pingwan town.
Wu Tsung sat on his horse and followed the car slowly.
The moonlight was clear and bright, and the cool night wind brushed the young man's heroic and handsome face, which made him feel much relaxed.
Wu Tsui glanced at the carriage ahead and then looked up at the stars above his head.
It was the first time he had seen such a beautiful night sky when he came to the capital for a long time.
Maybe I haven't paid close attention to it before.
Seeing that the carriage ahead hurried, the boy patted his horse and caught up.
The carriage stopped at zhenzikou.
Wu Chiu first sent him to inquire about the dark guard of the inn. At this time, he reported: "young master, there are two inns in the town, one big and one small. The bigger one is in the east of the town, and the smaller one is not far ahead."
Wu Chiu nodded and said to the humanity in the carriage, "Miss Xu, go to the house in the East."
At such a late night, if a man and a woman stay in the same inn, they must attract attention. For the sake of each other's reputation, they should stay separately.
He did not elaborate, but Xu Mingyi also understood the intention.
She lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the boy outside the carriage, looked serious and said, "thank you, childe Wu, for tonight."
Whether it's helping her find her body or giving her the better Inn right now.
She doesn't think that as a woman, she should accept these good intentions with ease. She was born in the town government, and the other party was a child of an aristocratic family who grew up in the palm of the whole Dingnan palace. I'm afraid she was much better than her when it comes to being delicate.
Looking at the girl's vivid and beautiful face under the raised car curtain and under the eyes of those black, bright and clear eyes, Wu Tsui suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
He staggered his eyes and looked ahead. He didn't say much. He just "um" and wanted to leave.
"By the way, Mr. Wu, wait."
Xu Mingyi's voice suddenly sounded again.
Wu Tsung frowned slightly and looked at her.
If Miss Xu talks so much again, he may start thinking nonsense again.
The girl poked out a slender hand from the carriage with a carved food box in her hand.
"This heart was originally brought to Mr. Wu. Previously, he only talked in the teahouse, but he forgot about it."
She wanted to ask for help, but she couldn't go empty handed.
"Mr. Wu should have no time for evening food tonight. At this time, the kitchen of the inn is often out of fire, and I'll just take this dessert."
Ah Zhu was surprised.
It turned out that the girl's heart was specially given to childe Wu. She really wanted to send it to Princess Yufeng. No wonder ah Kui always said that she didn't read her book and only looked at the surface in case of trouble.
“……”
Looking at the food box, Wu Tsui was silent for a moment.
Why does Miss Xu think he can eat any snacks after smelling the smell of corpses all night?
But when he saw that hand holding, he took it anyway.
Well, if he doesn't accept it, she's afraid she'll have to think of other ways to thank each other, and they'll be in trouble.
"Thank you."
The boy beat the horse and left with a food box.
"I'm sorry, sir. There are no vacant rooms in the shop tonight."
In the lobby of the inn, the man who was woken up by the dark guard patting the door smiled patiently.
"But the firewood room is still empty. If you don't mind, you can deal with it all night." he habitually came to his mouth, but before the meeting, the boy was noble and quickly swallowed it back.
Wu Tsung glanced at dark Wei.
I came to inquire where there is an inn, but I don't know if there is a room available by the way?
Dark Wei bowed his head wrongfully.
What they are good at is killing people. How can they compare with the delicacy of a servant girl?
