A Clash of Gods Chapter 705: 15th person
Ximen Zhanying was squatting by the side of a corpse at the entrance of the cave, holding a silver needle in his hand, and was piercing the throat and hand veins of the corpse, Qi Ning knew at a glance, Ximen Zhanying is using a silver needle to check whether the dead body is poisonous.
Kou Cang knelt down on the ground without a word, but inspected the ground very carefully, and moved a distance of seven or eight steps. After a while, he got up and walked toward the cave. He got up and whispered into Qu Xiaocang's ear, Qu Xiaocang's expression was solemn, he had always been with Yan Yuese, his face was always smiling, but at the moment his face was no longer smiling, and the pair of small eyes like a gap With a strange color flash, several people could not guess his mind for a while.
Qu Xiaocang checked the environment again, and finally walked to Qi Ning and sighed, "Lu Shanghe was taken away?"
Qining nodded and asked, "What clues can Qu Xiaowei find?" This piece of freesia played around in and out for a long time, and Qi Ning naturally knew he was collecting clues.
Qu Xiaocang groaned a little, and finally said: "These corpses outside, there is no new wound on the whole body, let alone fatal wound, and after inspection, they have no toxins in their bodies."
Suzaku said horror: "No scars? Not poisoned, so... why did they die?"
"This requires a careful examination after autopsy." Qu Xiaocang said: "But this requires the corpse to be sent to Beijing, and careful inspection may find a clue."
Xuanwu only checked the corpse. Indeed, as Qu Xiaocang said, no fatal wound was found on the corpse, and I was also surprised. Since these people had no fatal wound, why did they all die.
"It seems that the same party with Lu Shanghe has long been mixed into Gulong, and took the opportunity to rescue him." Ximen Zhanying frowned beside him: "Brother Er, are we going to send someone to Yinghe Shanzhuang immediately People, even if he dare not go back, he can arrest some of his doormen for interrogation."
"It is naturally impossible for him to go back, this person is acting secretly, even if he catches his doormen, he may not be able to find any clues." Qu Xiaocang shook his head slightly: "I am just wondering whether he was rescued in the end. Go."
Qining suspiciously said: "Qu Xiaowei, what does this mean?"
Qu Xiaocang said: "You let people detain Lu Shanghe here, and sent eight people to guard here, plus Lu Shanghe, which is nine people. In addition to them, our team of five came over, and the front and back were ten. Four people came to Laolong Cave." He pointed to the ground. "We have carefully checked the ground. There are a total of fourteen new footprints, and the size of the footprints has been measured. The footprints of thirteen people coincide with us, leaving a pair of footprints. , It should be Lu Shanghe."
Xuanwu and Suzaku looked at each other, thinking that Qu Xiaocang had tossed for a little while. It turned out that he wanted to check the footprints. He could match a dozen pairs of footprints in such a short time. .
Qining shook his head and said, "No, there are at least fifteen people's footprints. Lu Shanghe was rescued by someone. You look at the surrounding environment, there is only a necessary way for us to enter, and it is impossible to get from other places. Enter Laolong Cave, so the footprints of the person who rescued Lu Shanghe should also be left."
"This is also what I think." Qu Xiaocang said: "The corpses have no injuries, and all eight people are inexplicably killed here, which is naturally strange. And you see the postures and expressions of these eight corpses before they die. In addition to the color of fear in one person's eyes, the other seven corpse capitals are slightly painful, but there is no fear or surprise..."
"Only Cao Yang's expression is different from others." Qi Ningwei nodded and said: "Lu Shanghe was seriously injured and tied up, and Cao Yang and others were not ordinary people. Under severe injuries, Lu Shanghe could never be alone. Kill these eight people, and be able to retreat calmly, so someone must be rescued." Wei Yi pondered, said: "Does it mean that only Cao Yang saw the murderer alone?"
"It can be explained like this." Qu Xiaocang said: "But not sure. Master Wei, the two elders, when you saw the corpse, did you find something special?"
"What's special?"
Qu Xiaocang said: "Except for Cao Yang, who was mentioned by Wei Gang, when the other seven people were dying, they all pressed their right hands against their mouths. It seemed that there was a problem with the position of the heart. The corpses have been checked and they are not poisoned...!" thoughtfully: "If their faces show fear, I might be able to judge that they died in fright, but in fact they are not That’s why it’s really confusing.”
"Cao Yang and these brothers have been through a hundred battles, how could they be frightened to death?" Xuanwu said lightly: "The opponent must have injured them with evil gate kung fu."
Qu Xiaocang said: "It makes sense. Wei Bangzhu said that there should be at least fifteen people's footprints. The real murderer is martial arts no matter how high, and it is impossible to leave no footprints, so I carefully checked... ...!" He paused for a moment before saying: "But there are really only 14 footprints."
Ximen battle cherry blossom color slightly changed, could not help but ask: "Brother, then... Isn't that the murderer's footprint? The murderer can't always fly from the sky."
"Maybe it's really flying." Qu Xiaocang sighed: "But as far as I know, there are no traces, no trace of footprints, such martial arts, even today's top experts can't Do it."
Including Qi Ning, the eyes of several people showed a trace of surprise.
Killing is invisible, saving people without a trace, is it impossible to be a ghost?
"Elder Suzaku, is this the only exit of Laolongdong?" Qi Ning turned to look at Suzaku.
Suzaku nodded and said: "Only this one, the old dragon cave was not dug by manpower, but made of natural materials. I have been in it twice before and I am sure there are no other exits."
"If this is the case, Lu Shanghe can only go out of this hole when he leaves." Qi Ning looked at Qu Xiaocang and asked, "Qu Xiaowei naturally checked the footprint of Lu Shanghe's departure."
Qu Xiaocang walked to the edge of the hole, squatted down, and pointed to a place: "If the footprint of the fourteenth person is Lu Shanghe, then after he came out, he disappeared at the convenience of this place, and no step forward. ."
Qining moved to the place where Lu Shanghe disappeared and looked around. On one side was a mountain wall and on the other was Longtan Lake. Then he looked up, and there was a steep stone wall above Laolong Cave, ten feet tall, which was impossible for humans to climb up. .
"Will it jump into the lake?" Ximen Zhanying suddenly thought of: "Brother Er, may the murderer come from the lake, so I can't find the footprint?"
Qu Xiaocang shook his head and said, "If the murderer dives from the lake, there will be water trails on the shore. I checked the soil, there is no sign of moisture, and even if he came from the lake, after landing, there should be Footprint. When leaving, Lu Shanghe escaped from the lake, which is unlikely." Pointing to Longtan Lake, "There is also some distance to jump from here to Longtan Lake. Jumping into the lake from this distance, let’s not say There will be noise, at least the water will splash on the shore, but there is no trace of water on the shore."
Qining only felt that it became more and more strange, looking up at the steep mountain wall above the entrance of the cave, pondering for a moment, before saying: "It’s not coming from the path or leaving from the lake, it can only come down from above."
Qu Xiaocang also looked up and sighed: "If there is such a method, then the martial arts of the people who rescued Lu Shanghe is really terrifying. Under the sky, I am afraid that only the Grand Master can do it."
The word "Grandmaster" came out one by one, and several of them were slightly discolored, and Qi Ning was even more disappointed.
Qu Xiaocang continued: "If it is really Grand Master, then all this can be explained. The Grand Master's martial arts are fascinating, and there is no trace of it, then naturally it can be done. The eight gang brothers are in He was killed in an instant, and he didn’t even respond. Only the Grand Master could do it.” His eyebrows tightened, and he said: “But among the five Grand Masters, who is likely to come to Gulongzhong to rescue Lu Shanghe? "
Qining suddenly thought of Lu Shanghe’s nameless swordsmanship. That set of swordsmanship was very similar to the sword spectrum drawn by the sword **** Beigong. If someone among the five great masters had a relationship with Lu Shanghe, the biggest suspect was Beigong. Liancheng.
But Beigong is beyond the world, how could he bend over to rescue Lu Shanghe? And with his martial arts, even if he didn’t kill these beggar gang disciples, he should be able to take Lu Shanghe away, but why did he have to kill him?
Could it be that the instigator behind Lu Shanghe turned out to be Beigongliancheng?
Qining himself was shocked by this possibility~IndoMTL.com~I just thought it was incredible.
But he thought about it carefully, and felt that this fact was unlikely.
If Baihu and Lu Shanghe were ordered by Beigong City to murder Xiang Baiying, why was Bei Gong killing Bai Baiying? The martial arts of the Northern Palace is supernatural, if he wants to kill Xiang Baiying, it is not a difficult thing, why should he borrow the hand of others, or even plan carefully, this is unreasonable.
"Wei Gangzhu, this matter is of great importance." Qu Xiaocang thought for a while before saying: "We must rush back to the capital immediately to submit this matter to the top, and we will definitely investigate this matter with all our strength."
Qining knew that such a thing was happening, if the Shenhou Mansion was strange, nodded and said, "Lu Shanghe is the enemy of the gang, and the gang will also go out to find Lu Shanghe's whereabouts, Qu Xiaowei, no matter who Find Lu Shanghe first and let them know each other. The gang will also cooperate with Shenhou Mansion to find the real murderer behind the scenes."
Qu Xiaocang arched and said: "So you will work hard." Then they arched to Xuanwu two, and then said: "Little sister, let's go."
Ximen Zhanying glanced at Qi Ning, seeing that Qi Ning was smiling and looking at herself, and he quickly saluted Qi Ning before turning around and leaving with Qu Xiaoang.
After the two of them left, Xuanwu only said: "Wei Bangzhu, do you really think that it would be Grand Master who rescued Lu Shanghe?"
"There is currently no evidence to prove that Grand Master rescued Lu Shanghe." Qi Ning shook his head: "There is no evidence, we are not good at making random guesses. Maybe the murderer has other methods we can't think of, but this thing, the gang and The Shenhou Mansion wanted to join forces to investigate, and the murderer killed several of our brethren, and we naturally couldn’t let go.”
