Chapter 375: Ambush from All Sides(1/2)
After Lu Bai and King Luo left the palace, he turned around and invited Lu Bai, "Uncle, my wine has been boiled. Let's go have a drink."
"It's okay to drink. You just need to abide by the rules and laws." Lu Bai waved his hand.
King Luo felt that he still had to drink wine.
"If you hadn't stopped me in the main hall just now, my father would have killed me." King Luo insisted on inviting Lu Bai to come, and even prepared a table full of delicious food for Lu Bai.
Lu Bai was really moved, but what moved him even more was the chance to draw a lottery, so he reluctantly refused and chose to return to Nanzhen Fusi.
However, when they were separated, Lu Bai did not forget to tell him, "When you go back, remember to find out who killed the Customs Supervisor and the whereabouts of the Jin Yiwei."
King Luo reassured Lu Bai, "I will take my uncle's case seriously."
Then, King Luo left in his car.
After Lu Bai watched him leave, he raised his feet and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that he didn't have a carriage anymore.
There would be no carriage for him to hire at the entrance of the palace.
Lu Bai walked a few streets and saw a carriage soliciting passengers. He waved and got on it.
He thought it was really inconvenient to wait around without a saddle, and the carriage was not Didi, so he could not be called in time, and sometimes he had to find a carriage. More importantly, riding in a carriage on the roadside would affect his identity.
However, it would be inconvenient for Lu Bai to send a servant to drive the carriage for Lu Bai.
He has secrets and secrets about him. He often does or says some words and actions that are not of this world. It would be bad if someone hears or sees him.
"It would be great if we drew a carriage." Lu Bai thought.
Preferably one that can drive autonomously.
This is not difficult to achieve, as long as you have a smart mount.
Thinking of this, Lu Bai missed his great white ape.
It's not easy to bring this big white ape here - this guy has always been thinking about human flesh. When he left Yancheng, Lu Bai left it in the middle valley.
Lu Bai thought so in his mind, he casually called out the panel, and then he saw a carriage actually appear in the lottery pool of the panel.
"Hey, is this a voice-controlled game?" Lu Bai sighed.
For the sake of experiment, he chose to draw a lottery, and then he kept muttering "carriage, carriage, carriage".
Unfortunately, the carriage did not come out, but instead came out an orange sheet music of "House of Flying Daggers".
"Ambush from all sides?" Lu Bai exchanged it, disappointed.
Firstly, he is not proficient in music, and he does not know how to play Gongshangjiaozhengyu. Secondly, he does not know how to play pipa and strings. He really doesn't know what to do with this thing.
"Forget it, go back to your aunt." Lu Bai put it in his arms.
As a talented woman, Gu Qinghuan is also quite accomplished in Qin and Pipa. This "Ambush from Flying Daggers" can be used as a pastime in her spare time.
However, in the panel that Lu Bai had not looked at carefully, the introduction to "Ambush from Flying Daggers" was labeled Cultivation.
After arriving at Fusi in Nanzhen, Lu Bai led his people to Zhao Prison.
As the envoy of Nanzhen, he was responsible for supervising the case of Gu Jin's flower-picking thief. Now that the man was dead, Lu Bai had to go and take a look.
The governor of Beizhen and the commander Xiao Zhan were also in Zhao Prison.
After learning that Lu Bai was here, Xiao Zhan saw that Lu Bai's expression was very complicated, and he didn't know if he should say thank you. After all, Lu Bai had begged for him.
But Lu Bai also thought about killing him, which made him feel terrible.
This is really a dilemma.
Lu Bai ignored his little thoughts and walked over and asked directly: "What's going on? This case was just discovered two days ago and was only sent to Zhao Prison yesterday. Why is someone dead today?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head.
He was still wondering why the person died before the news was released and caused panic among the people in the city and even the country.
"How did you die?" Lu Bai said, lowering his head and walking into the cell.
The cell in Zhao Prison was almost like a water prison. It was very humid and dark inside.
The Jin Yiwei behind him hurriedly followed up and provided lighting for Lu Bai.
Xiao Zhan also followed.
"Death after cutting." Xiao Zhan said.
He had already inspected the body this morning.
"His eyes were open when he died, and there was fear on his face and eyes, but for some reason, he didn't struggle or cry out." Xiao Zhan told the case honestly, "Jin Yiwei has been having troubles in Zhao Prison.
With less skill, if he had called for help, he would have been there in an instant, but he didn't call."
Xiao Zhan glanced at Lu Bai and whispered, "I think he might have committed suicide."
After all, Lu Bai had tortured him once, and Gu Jin still knew that Jin Yiwei had made criminals experience life worse than death, and it was possible to wipe his neck with a knife.
Lu Bai asked back, "The knife you handed me."
"Uh-" Xiao Zhan stopped talking.
Lu Bai walked up to the corpse and asked Jin Yiwei to lower the torch, and he saw a hideous wound on the neck.
"The entrance of this wound is shallow, and the knife is deep. One strike is fatal. You can tell at a glance that it was done by someone else." Lu Bai straightened up.
He was already inseparable in his heart.
However, he did not give up this opportunity to teach Xiao Zhan, "Suicide requires a deep entrance, because when you first commit suicide, you are very determined and will use a lot of strength. The knife is shallow at the end because of pain or inability to hold on.
.”
He looked at Xiao Zhan with disdain, "As the commander of the Jinyi Guards, you don't understand this logic at all. I really don't know how you got the position of commander - wait, I know, you are just trying to flatter the Lu family and act like a dog to the Lu family."
Xiao Zhan wisely chose not to speak.
Lu Bai glanced around the cell.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Zhan added: "There are no signs of broken windows or doors. I can't figure out how the murderer got in."
Lu Bai walked to the cell door and looked at the door and lock. "He definitely didn't fly in, and judging from the way he committed the crime, he couldn't be a ghost. Then there is only one answer -"
Walked in from the main entrance.
He asked Xiao Zhan to ask if the key was lost last night.
"These people's Qinggong skills are pretty good. It's not impossible for them to steal the key quietly." Lu Bai said.
Xiao Zhan asked someone to question the Jin Yiwei who was in charge of the key yesterday, and asked curiously: "These people? How do you know they are a group of people?"
"I'm talking about people from his sect." Lu Bai said.
Only those who belong to Gu Jin's sect have a reason to kill Gu Jin. "Otherwise, who do you think would go to a dangerous place like Jin Yiwei Zhao Prison just to kill a eunuch?"
Xiao Zhan was convinced, "But how did the news leak out? Could it be that he still has brothers from his sect around him?"
Xiao Zhan looked at Lu Bai.
Only Lu Bai probably knows the answer to this, after all, it was Lu Bai who brought him here.
He even suspected that Lu Bai wanted to frame him in this way.
"Look what I'm doing?!" Lu Bai said angrily, "If I wanted to do something evil, I would do it directly, and then use a borrowed knife to kill someone? That's not vulgar."
Xiao Zhan was right to think about it with his sly mind.
"Even if there are people from the sect around him, Gu Jin doesn't know." Lu Baizi was very sure that at the wine house that day, Gu Jin had hired everything except the gardener who came to him.
"It's also possible that the news was leaked elsewhere," Lu Bai said.
He came from the wine house, went to Jinyiwei, went to Zhao Prison, and then reported it to the emperor. Apart from that, few people know about it.
After Xiao Zhan analyzed it, he felt that the only way the news could be leaked was through these links.
"This murderer is no ordinary person." Lu Bai looked at the body again and stood up, "I remember Gu Jin confessed that the people in his sect are good at disguise, and they used the skills of female celebrities to get close to the women in their boudoir."
Not so with this murderer.
His light skill was so good that he came and went without a trace and did not alert the guards in Zhao Prison. This shows that this man's light skill is more than enough for picking flowers.
Such a master is not considered a master in Gu Jin's sect, but is also considered a senior brother.
"Could it be that someone from Gu Jin's sect didn't do it, but a vendetta?" Xiao Zhan's imagination was wide open, "They say that naked hatred is between peers. Could it be that the flower picker felt that Gu Jin was like this?"
He insulted them with his own tricks, so he killed them?"
"Well--"
Lu Bai felt that Xiao Zhan was not qualified to be a royal guard, and he should be a storyteller.
"Don't think too much, it was someone from his sect who did it." Lu Bai pointed at Gu Jin's open eyes, "This is probably because he was drugged by Gu Jin's sect."
When Gu Jin confessed, he mentioned being drugged.
He said this drug was his master's secret medicine.
People who are overtaken by this medicine will not lose consciousness, nor will their bodies remain motionless, but their consciousness will be somewhere between blurred and awake. Sometimes their brains will be awake, but their bodies will not obey orders.
I heard that Gu Jin's master developed this medicine so that he could enjoy great enjoyment when destroying flowers without playing with a piece of wood.
