The assassin, Leng Sencha, has entered the assassin's hall again. The assassin, Leng Sencha, asked, "is that why you have entered the assassin's hall?"
Wang Song wiped sweat beads on his forehead and stammered, "yes... It's the assassin who disguised himself as a craftsman, so... That's why he sneaked into the guild hall. This, this is a slight minister's oversight. I hope... I hope the king will forgive me."
i see! What a cunning assassin. The assassin must have known that he and lingshuang would often travel together, and he was sure to stay in the Changdu Pavilion. He made the arrangement early. This assassination was a carefully planned action.
If he hadn't been sober at that time, I'm afraid he lingshuang would have really caught the assassin's way. Now he has been dead for a long time.
He narrowed his eyes and said word by word, "in any case, we must catch these assassins." Otherwise, there will be endless trouble.
He was muttering to himself, but Wang Song thought Tang Yin was talking to him. He quickly bowed and said, "don't worry, king. Even if you dig three feet, you will catch the assassin in front of the king."
Wang Song's words are what Tang Yin likes to hear. He nodded and said, "go check it. Be sure to give me a result within two days."
"Yes, Mr. Wei!" Wang Song answered with relief. For two days, he was not afraid that the assassin could fly away. He was afraid that the king would punish himself now.
Wang Song hurriedly took the order. He commanded the Zeping County army to close all the city gates and block the waterways outside the city. At the same time, a large number of county army searched and arrested the whole city in the city.
For a time, the city of Changdu was full of grass and trees, full of a strong sense of desolation. Even though it was already bright, there were still few pedestrians on the streets. Shops and shops on both sides of the road were closed one after another, and the doors and windows were closed.
Tang Yin and lingshuang stay in Changdu for the time being because they want to track down the assassin. The spies of Tianyan and geonet and the secret arrow personnel fully cooperate with the local army of Changdu to catch the assassin together.
Wang Song's ability is not flattering, but it doesn't mean that there are no capable people under him.
There is a good tracker in the county army. The man's name is Gao Mucheng. He is from Lingnan County in Fengdi. His grandparents and parents are all works of bamboo. Only then did he start to practice Lingwu.
Because of his family background, Gao Mucheng has a delicate mind and is good at observing details. When others went door-to-door like headless flies to search for the assassin, he kept searching on both sides of the river.
At that time, the assassins jumped into the river and fled. Although the guards went to catch them, they didn't catch anyone, and finally let the assassins escape smoothly. However, according to the soldiers of the guards, some of the assassins were injured. Since someone was injured and fled in such a hurry, there will be clues to see if they can be found.
Maybe the Emperor didn't live up to his intentions, or maybe Gao Mucheng's starting point was too accurate. After a whole day of inspection, he really found clues. It was a piece of broken silver, most of which was buried in the mud by the river, leaving only a small point exposed.
If someone else changes, I'm afraid I can't even see it. Even if I find it, I'll take it as my good luck and pick up the silver. However, according to the color of the silver, Gao Mucheng quickly judged that the silver had just fallen here, that is, in the past one or two days, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the people in the city to go to the muddy place like the river. Moreover, ordinary people are unlikely to carry silver, at best copper money.
Through these judgments, Gao Mucheng suspected that the silver was probably accidentally left by the assassin when he climbed ashore from the river. Interestingly, the shape of the silver is very special, in the shape of a plum blossom. As far as Gao Mucheng knows, there is only one place in the whole capital city, Wantong silk and satin villa, where the scattered silver can be made into a plum blossom.
Now he is not sure whether the assassin has anything to do with Wantong silk and satin villa, but one thing is certain that the assassin has at least been there and bought things there, otherwise there would be no broken silver unique to Wantong silk and satin villa.
He didn't tell Wang song about his judgment. He knew Wang Song's half weight. Besides, the big boss of Wantong silk and satin manor was a famous local rich man and had a wide range of business scope. He had many money contacts with Wang song. Gao Mucheng felt that even if the assassin had a real relationship with Wantong silk and satin manor, Wang song might suppress the matter. In addition, He doesn't want to work under Wang Song's hand all his life. This time, it's a good opportunity to change his future destiny. He doesn't want to miss it.
He went directly to the hidden arrow and asked to see Cheng Jin, the leader of the hidden arrow. After meeting, he told Cheng Jin his discovery and inference.
After hearing this, Cheng Jin immediately realized that Gao Mucheng's discovery was very important and the inference was reasonable. Even if Wantong silk and satin manor had nothing to do with the assassin, at least he should have seen the assassin and his appearance. As long as his side could master the assassin's appearance and search for him, it would save a lot of effort.
He asked Gao Mucheng if he wanted to search Wantong silk and satin villa. Gao Mucheng shook his head again and again and said, "general Cheng, the big boss of Wantong silk and satin manor is Meng Ping'an. He is a famous local rich man and a good man. He is highly respected. He rushed to search without solid evidence. He is afraid that he will lead to discontent among the people and unnecessary trouble."
Cheng Jin rubbed his chin and thought, and asked, "what do you mean?"
"You can go to the secret investigation first to explore the situation. If it's abnormal, it's not too late to make an explicit investigation." Gao Mucheng arched his hand and said.
Cheng Jin smiled, nodded and said, "OK, I'll listen to you. I'll go with you."
Gao Mucheng was very happy. Cheng Jin, the big head of the secret arrow, went to the secret investigation with him. What a great honor! He didn't even refuse. He bowed down again and said, "with the company of general Cheng, his subordinates will have a deeper heart."
"Ha ha -" Cheng Jin smiled up and said, "if your inference is correct this time and Wantong silk and satin manor has something to do with the assassin, then I will ask the king for orders in person and include you in my secret arrow account."
Gao Mucheng doubted whether he had heard wrong. Cheng Jin wanted to take himself into the hidden arrow. How is this possible? Dark arrows are always only used by spiritual practitioners of the dark Department. They are spiritual weapons of the light department!
In fact, Cheng Jin has long wanted to attract the spiritual practitioners of the light department. Now, the growth of the dark arrow is far slower than the expansion speed of the wind country, and it needs a lot of talents to supplement. After all, there are too few spiritual practitioners of the dark Department, so Cheng Jin also wants to expand the scope of recruiting subordinates, but he hasn't found the opportunity to mention to the king that if Gao Mu comes true this time, he can help him catch the assassin, Then you can also take this opportunity to propose to the king that Gao Mucheng be included in his command, so as to break the practice that dark arrows only recruit dark spiritual practitioners.
From the heart, Cheng Jin has no prejudice. Whether he is a spiritual cultivator of the dark department or a spiritual cultivator of the light department, he appreciates it as long as he has the ability and can do and accomplish things.
In the evening, Cheng Jin and Gao Mucheng came to Wantong silk and satin villa in casual clothes.
Now there are almost no shops in the city, and Wantong silk and satin villa is no exception. Gao Mucheng glanced at Cheng Jin, then went to the door of the store, hammered the door board hard, and shouted, "open the door, open the door, open the door!"
After a short time, footsteps came from inside. A young man dressed as a factotum opened the door of the shop, opened a small crack, looked outside and saw that the visitor was Gao Mucheng. The young man's expression collapsed and said, "General Gao, your people have just come to search. Why do you want to search now?"
Gao Mucheng is a partial general in the county army. His status is not high, but it is not bad. There are not many people who know him. Gao Mucheng waved to the young man and said, "we're not here to search, but to buy silk."
"Ah?" The young man was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "General Gao, I'm really sorry that the shop doesn't open today. Please come back another day!"
"No." Gao Mucheng turned sideways, pointed to Cheng Jin behind him and said, "my friend will go back to the windy place with the king tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I have to buy some gifts to take home while I'm free now. It's convenient for my little brother!"
Yo, it sounds like this is the person around the wind king! The young man looked up and down at Cheng Jin. He didn't dare to push it off again. He opened the store door and said with a smile, "please come inside, two generals."
Cheng Jin followed Gao Mucheng into the silk and satin shop. The space inside is not small. It is divided into upper and lower floors. The counters on the lower floor are all ordinary silk and satins, which are for ordinary people. The silk and satins on the second floor are much more exquisite and the price is naturally a little higher. They are specially prepared for dignitaries and dignitaries.
Gao Mucheng and Cheng Jin are both generals in the army. Even if the young waiter doesn't know Cheng Jin's identity, he can guess that Gao Mucheng's status is extraordinary from his respect.
The waiter directly let them to the second floor. After they sat down, they served tea and water and delivered melon and fruit snacks. They were very considerate.
After taking good care of them, the waiter took out the silks and satins one by one from under the counter and put them on the counter, Pointing one by one, he introduced: "two generals, this is the most famous Panjin in Zeping county. It is produced from the plate. It is fine and well-made. It can be said to be the best of the brocade. The two generals can come and touch it. It's light and smooth. It's as light as nothing."
The waiter has excellent eloquence. The introduction is endless.
Cheng Jin stood up with a smile, walked to the counter, reached out and touched it, and then nodded secretly. Although the waiter exaggerates, this dish of brocade is really good. It's not the best, but it's definitely the best.
He didn't think much about it. He didn't even ask the price. He said, "measure this brocade for me... Twenty feet."
Ah! The waiter was surprised secretly. This one's tone is really not small. It costs 20 feet to open his mouth and doesn't ask the price. The waiter smiled and said, "general, the price of Panjin is not cheap. It costs five Liang silver per foot!"
