Chapter 258: Bearer of Eagle Hair
Where something happened?
What happened?
Who happened to it?
This question is not difficult to guess. Reading at Zero O'clock
After passing through the gate, I saw life-sized wooden dummies standing everywhere in the yard.
If you look closely, you will find that these wooden dummies are covered with holes of different sizes.
It refers to the printing!
In addition to fingerprints, there are also footprints.
On the bluestone floor, clearly visible footprints swirled around the dummy.
Fingerprints are worn through wood, and footprints are carved into stone.
It is conceivable that someone once practiced martial arts day and night in this yard.
Leave the yard, walk through the outer hall, and walk into the dusty inner room.
As soon as he stepped on his feet, a large fog of dust suddenly rose up.
"Why don't you find someone to clean up?" I suffocated Yanchen.
"I'm afraid of messing up the clues." The Eagle Claw King said.
I felt a stern: In this way, this room is the scene of the crime?
The room is not large in size and the furnishings are very simple. In addition to a wooden bed, a wooden table, and a few wooden chairs, there is only a large wooden wardrobe and a wooden shelf holding a large copper basin.
Simple and simple, this is a bedroom that is very suitable for martial arts practitioners.
The problem is...
I looked at it for a long time, but I couldn't see anything abnormal in the room.
Everything is in the place where it should be, the beds are neatly stacked, and the tables and chairs are intact.
Could it be...that happened in that big wardrobe?
Although the wardrobe is large, it is divided into many small drawers, and it is impossible to hide people inside.
If you really want to hide someone inside...
Just imagination made me shudder.
Not so miserable, right?
I secretly glanced at the Eagle Claw King.
The Eagle Claw King's face has no expression.
If I ask him directly, it would seem like I was too incompetent, so I might as well take a look.
I bent down and lowered my head, and carpet-style search of the house.
There is indeed no problem with tables and chairs.
There is no problem with the copper basin wooden rack.
Next to the wooden rack is a large wardrobe.
Anyway, we have to check sooner or later, so let’s bite the bullet!
I swallowed my saliva and slowly opened one of the drawers.
Speaking of which, you may not believe it, but I am a person who is afraid of blood...
He tilted his neck and glanced out of the corner of his eyes!
Fortunately, it's just some clothes.
I looked at several drawers, all of which were covered with clothes.
I breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and stared at the only object that had not been inspected in the house.
bed.
It is said that one third of a person's life is spent in bed.
It is obvious that the people who say this lack nightlife.
Of course, maybe he doesn't lack it. After all, there are some people who spend their nightlife in bed.
In any case, the importance of the bed to humans is self-evident - you can have fun every night and have fun every day, but in the end, you will have to have a good night's sleep.
If you want to have a good night's sleep, you need a good bed.
This bed may not look gorgeous, but it is mainly made of the original scented yellow sandalwood, with a rhinoceros stone embedded in each corner, which emits a faint fragrance throughout. Sleeping on it can have the effect of calming the mind and relaxing pressure and sleeping.
This bed alone is estimated to be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
What a high-end, low-key look luxurious!
It’s right to think about it. In a poor place like Yuanzhou, several bigwigs can easily take out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, let alone control the eagle claw gate of a large prefecture like Qizhou?
If it is really too shabby, it will make people feel strange.
When I think back at this time, I feel a little uncomfortable: I have saved your life, Zheng Ying, the three rewards I give are not very good, and I can only choose one of three!
However, Zheng Ying may not have the intention of tempting me in his heart. If I were really too greedy, maybe I would just let him go out, so how could I stay and participate in such a confidential incident in front of me?
After calming down my mind, I began to carefully check the bed.
The glaze paint on the bed frame is very smooth, and the bedding on the bed is also neat, with scratches, damage, blood stains, debris... no one was found.
I frowned, half-squatted down, leaned over to look under the bed.
There were several large boxes under the bed, and there was no room for hiding people at all.
Do you want to pull the box out and take a look?
Just as I was about to do this, I suddenly saw something strange in the corner of my eyes.
The strange thing is just below the edge of the bed, facing the bottom of the beam on the ground.
not understand?
Specifically, it is the place you can touch when you sit out on the edge of the bed with your hands, and then reach down.
What secrets are hidden here?
I reached out and touched it and found that it was a line of words.
Use your fingertips to mark the words on the surface of the wood!
"Looking for the Golden Eagle-Furrowed One."
Five words say everything.
But after thinking about it carefully, nothing can be explained.
I stood up straight and looked at the Eagle Claw King quietly.
"Zheng Ze returned from Yuanzhou and disappeared shortly after." The Eagle Claw King said slowly, "Because there were no abnormal traces left on the scene, it took several days before Ye Ying found this sentence under the bed."
"Zheng Ze disappeared, was it before or after you were poisoned?" I asked.
"After." The Eagle Claw King said, "So we guess that if I was poisoned and Zheng Ze disappeared, it should be done by the same person or the same group of people... Their purpose is probably to subvert the Eagle Claw Gate!"
I took a breath.
Two months ago, my goal in Qizhou was to drink wine pond meat forest.
When I really arrived in Qizhou, my goal had become to find Zheng Ze, and the two of them talked about family matters.
When I entered Qizhou City, my goal became to find out why the Eagle Claw Gate wanted to capture the person holding the Golden Eagle Fur.
Now, I know why.
But in the blink of an eye, he was actually caught in a conspiracy that intended to subvert the Eagle Claw Gate?
A giant like the Eagle Claw Gate, whether it is internal or external struggle, will inevitably be accompanied by a terrible bloody storm.
I just want to ask - is it still time to withdraw now?
Of course, I didn't ask.
After letting me know so many secrets, how can I leave?
"Looking for the Golden Eagle-Haired..." I asked another question, "How many people are holding the Golden Eagle-Haired?"
"There are twelve golden eagle hairs in total. I have six on hand. When Zheng Ze left Qizhou to travel around the world, I gave him three." The Eagle Claw King said, "The other six are in the hands of the two deputy sect leaders, and they have never given them to anyone."
"Will the phrase 'find the Golden Eagle-Haired One' refers to..." I guessed, "Two deputy sect leaders?"
"They have no clue about this." The Eagle Claw King shook his head.
Obviously, the Eagle Claw King has absolute trust in his two companions who have been through life and death.
If the two deputy sect leaders are really trustworthy, then the saying "find the Golden Eagle-Haired One" can only fall on the three golden eagle-Haired Ones in Zheng Ze's hands.
"Zheng Ze did send out all three golden eagle hairs." The Eagle Claw King said again, "It's a pity that we only found the owner of two of them..."
The owner of Yiji is me.
And the other owner... was the unlucky rich young master who was walking in front of me.
So, does the truth of the whole thing fall on the owner of the third golden eagle hair?
"Ah? Who are you?"
Just as I was about to ask the Eagle Claw King further, a jumping figure rushed in from the door.
