Chapter 1862

In desperation, xiaomaozi had to go to the political workshop and inquire about Lu Laosan's neighbors one by one. As a result, he found nothing. He had to report to Wenxiang Pavilion.

But unexpectedly, when he passed Dongshi wine shop, Hu Shang from the western regions heard that there was a strange thing in the western city, which seemed to be related to Lu Laosan.

It turned out that yesterday morning, someone went to the release pool to release animals, but found that there was a dead man's head in the shade of the pool. The head was cut off with a sharp tool and his eyes were gouged out.

A few days later, the head had already been whitened by the blisters in the pool, and the skin and meat had been bitten by fish and turtles. It became beyond recognition and could not recognize who it was.

After closing the case, the bad person immediately went to the scene for investigation and finally concluded that the head owner was Lu Laosan, a broker in Dongshi.

Lu Laosan, who is far away in the east city, how can he be now in the West City release pool? Who killed him? And his headless body, where is it?

After hearing the news, xiaomaozi hurried to Wenxiang Pavilion. At that time, Xu Yi went to find the old boss, so he had to report to Ye Wen. Ye Wen knew that it was important, so he went alone to explore the true and false, and finally confirmed it.

Lu Laosan has become the soul of Chang'an!

Because it was too late at that time, the doors of all the workshops had been closed. Ye Wen couldn't turn back to the Wenxiang Pavilion immediately. He didn't come back to tell Xu Yi until the door opened this morning.

After hearing the news, Xu Yi felt a "click" in his heart. Lu Laosan was the only clue in his plan that could solve the mystery. How could he be killed at this time and die so strangely?

Was his killer involved?

Xu Yi can't think too much. He hurried to the political workshop with Ye Wen. It has been blocked by evil people. No admittance is allowed. He tried to find clues from it and find the murderer.

Xu Yi is not an idle person. After spending a little money, he enters Lu's third house. He and ye Wen search for a long time, but they still don't find anything.

As if Lu Laosan's death was really just a coincidence.

If it's a coincidence, it's good to kill others. Why bother to cut off his head, gouge out his eyes and throw them into the release pool?

It's not an ordinary way of killing people. It's like some kind of weird ceremony.

Lu Laosan is a widower. He used to have a mother-in-law, aunt and children, but they both died because of a bad disease. For many years, he has not remarried, so it is difficult to find out any clues.

Lu's family is just an ordinary house. It has a separate yard with a fence outside. There are three houses, two of which are idle and filled with sundries.

Only the middle one is where he often lives. In addition to simple furniture, there is only an earth Kang and a stove pit

Because the investigation found nothing, Xu Yi had planned to give up, but suddenly at this time, the sunshine outside the house came in, so that he couldn't open his eyes and had to cover it with his hands.

At this moment, Xu Yihu's heart was alert. The golden light just now was not ordinary sunlight, but refracted from gold.

Lu Laosan's family is in vain. The money he earns as a broker can only barely support himself. He has no spare money to buy gold tools. In this case, where does the golden light come from?

Xu Yi's heart moved slightly. He took Ye Wen out of the house and looked for it alone in the room. He soon found the source of the gold ware. It turned out that there were ten Sassanian gold coins hidden under the stove pit.

Originally, these Sassanian gold coins were well hidden by the ashes, but I don't know why. One of them was exposed, and because the angle was very good, it refracted the sun onto Xu Yi's face, which attracted his attention.

But it's strange. How could Lu Laosan have so many Sassanian gold coins?

You know, the Sassanian gold coin was originally the currency of the Sassanian Dynasty of Persia. Later, the Sassanian Dynasty was destroyed by the great food, and the Persian Prince berus fled to the Tang Dynasty.

In the second year of Yifeng, Gao Zong helped the prince of Persia regain the throne and wanted to set up a governor's office in Persia, but because the army could only go to Kucha, he had to give up.

The restoration of the Pylos failed, and finally returned to Chang'an to die of old age. As a result, a large number of Persians stayed and were renamed the Sogdians, and the Sassanian gold coins lost circulation.

However, this does not mean that Sassanian gold coins are worthless. These gold coins are made of gold and still circulate among the Sogdians. As long as you go to the West exchange to make money, they are also valuable.

A Sassanian gold coin can be exchanged for a coin.

Suddenly, Xu Yi remembered that when he met Lu Laosan in Dongshi a few days ago, he was acting as a broker for the Persian caravan. Was it the caravan that gave him?

This is also wrong. Even if he is a broker, he won't give ten gold coins!

Then he thought that Bi Sheng asked Lu Laosan to find someone and was willing to pay ten coins. Ten Sassanian gold coins were exactly ten coins. Did Bi Sheng give it to him?

But Bi Sheng is from the Tang Dynasty. How can there be so many Sassanian gold coins? It won't be a special exchange. Will it be paid to Lu Laosan?

Many doubts followed, which made Xu Yi feel strange.

"Eh, this is..."

Xu Yi thought for a long time and didn't think of the key. When he was about to give up, he found that there was half a piece of incomplete jute paper in the stove pit, which just covered the gold coin of Sasan.

If you didn't find Sassanian gold coins, you would never see this half of jute paper.

This jute paper is slightly yellow in color, slightly rough and much thicker than white jute paper. It was improved by Cai Lun in the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is mainly made of jute, cloth head and broken shoes, which can be used by ordinary people.

Because jute paper has strong toughness, it is not easy to be burned by fire. It is mostly used to record ancient books. Presumably, this is also the reason for leaving this half of jute paper.

Only half of the jute paper is left. I can't see the original size, but I can vaguely see a few words. They are written in flying white script.

The remaining words are "Xuan", "Ye" and "Feng", while the others have turned into ashes and can't see anything.

What do these words mean?

Xu Yi didn't understand, but his intuition told him that these words were very important, so when ye Wen didn't pay attention, he put them in his bag and took the ten Sassanian gold coins away.

"Up to now, Lu Laosan's clue here has been completely broken, and only these ten gold coins have been found."

At that time, ye Wen was outside the hospital, looking for clues everywhere, but he still found nothing. But when he heard Xu Yi's words and saw the ten Sassanian gold coins, he suddenly shook his eyelids. Although it was well hidden, he was seen by Xu Yi.

Even Xu Yi's heart moved. Does Ye Wen know anything?

"It's not like there's no harvest at all. At least these ten gold coins. As for other things, go back and find a way“

Ye Wen soon recovers as usual and doesn't intend to be honest, which makes Xu Yi more confident. He must have found something, but he doesn't want to say it.

What did you find?

Since he didn't want to say, Xu Yi was not easy to ask, so he had to go back to the incense Pavilion first, but on the way back, Xu Yi was shrouded in haze.

Now that he has lost all the clues, Bi Sheng is resourceful. What method should he use to get more holy things back from Bi Sheng's hands?

Not only that, he also had to guard against others, especially the two evil people who appeared outside the chongyeni temple that day. The hidden forces behind them also seemed to come for holy things.

The origin of that force is unknown, so we must be on guard.

While thinking, Xu Yi suddenly felt tired. In addition to his childhood experience, even in the dangerous Chang'an, he had not felt this feeling for a long time.

And he always felt that there was a bigger conspiracy behind this matter, as if there were two invisible thugs driving him forward.

But anyway, he has no choice now. Only by trying his best to recover the holy things can he resolve the current crisis and save Bai Yan.

No matter how many forces are hidden in the dark and what conspiracies are there, he has stood on the air outlet and has to keep moving forward.

An hour later, Xu Yi returned to Wenxiang Pavilion and saw him and ye Wen coming back. Su Ran'er said with concern, "you're back? How's the matter? Is it serious?"

Xu Yi took off the barrier knife, put it on several cases, took Ye Wen's Mint roll, and said in a moment of meditation: "Lu Laosan was killed by someone, and his death was very strange. Our clue was broken again, so we had to find another way“

Ye Wen also took out a bunch of mint rolls and put them into his mouth to chew gently: "today is the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month. It's only nine days from the end of the year. Is it time for nine days?"

Ye Wen asked the key. It's too difficult to find the holy thing in nine days and the vastness of Chang'an city.

Even if they knew that the holy thing was in Bi Sheng's hand, if Bi Sheng deliberately hid it, they couldn't use it. They could only look at it and worry.

At a loss what to do, Xu Yi looked at his eyes and said, "time is a bit tight, but it's not what I can do. I'm ready to cast out the net and let all eyes see him."

Su Ran'er gently reached his head and agreed: "if he is a man, he has flaws. Moreover, he has a treasure and is coveted by several forces. He will never be unable to bear it. We don't have enough time, and his time is also not enough."

"If we let the saints know that the sacred objects are stolen on the new year's Eve, we will certainly be furious. At that time, there will be a thorough investigation. Anyone in front of the country's heavy weapons will be insignificant ants."

"So no matter what plot he has, it will be completed in these days. As long as we keep an eye on him, we will gain something."

Ye Wen heard his eyebrows, vaguely frowned, and soon relaxed: "this move is very clever. Previously, we were too passive to be calculated one after another. Now we take the initiative to attack. Even if it doesn't work for the time being, we can certainly catch him off guard."

Since there was no objection, Xu Yi arranged to pour all the beggars in Chang'an into zhaohang square almost at the same time, and surrounded the Yulong Gang unscrupulously.

So that some people wonder, what's the matter with these beggars?

The Yulong Gang is like a big enemy. They think Xu Yi is going to fight in. Although they are lazy idlers, bully the good and fear the evil, do all kinds of bad things, and even have suffered a lot of human lives, they are surrounded by so many beggars, and they are still scared.
