Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 192: Murder with a knife
After getting the elixir, the troubles of Changsha King Liu Fa began. On the night that King Huainan pretended to be sent away, several strange things happened in his mansion...
Because of following the advice of Changsun Gong, taking the elixir of life is against the sky, and before that, I have to fast for 100 days. Right now, he didn't eat the pill immediately. He had to find an auspicious day to fast for 100 days. Liu Fa didn't plan to waste the past few days. After returning to his palace, he was tired with the two beauties of Zhao Guo. After sleeping until midnight, he woke up and found that the two beauties were no longer by his side.
Liu Fa called the servant who was standing outside the door, but no one answered after calling for a long time. At this time, the king of Changsha was still in a dream. He pushed open the door vaguely, and saw that the entire palace was shrouded in a thick fog. The fog was so thick and terrifying that I couldn't see anything but the whiteness in front of me.
At first, Liu Fa really thought that he was still in a dream, but now he continued to walk out. But after walking a few steps, he tripped over a soft object under his feet. The pain of falling to the ground made Liu Fa realize that this was not a dream, and what made him even more horrified was that only after Liu Fa fell to the ground did he realize that the person who was about to trip was a dead body...
The frightened Liu Fa immediately shouted at his throat, but until he vomited blood, he did not see the guards and servants coming. Liu Fa, who had broken his courage, could not find his bedroom. The bedroom was originally behind him, but after he fell, when he got up, Liu An couldn't tell the direction. After running like a headless fly for a while, I didn't know what it hit, and after a sharp pain in my head, I didn't know anything.
It was the next morning when Liu Fa woke up. He was on the bed in his bedroom, and the two beauties who had been driving by his side were nowhere to be seen. The first thing I saw was the doctor in my house and the state minister, the Marquis of Zhiyang, Changsun Gong...
If it wasn't for a dizzying headache, Liu Fa would have thought that what he encountered last night was just a dream. After seeing his Highness wake up, Changsun Gong swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath, and said, "His Royal Highness...you...what happened last night? It made you so angry..."
"What happened? You asked this king? Zhangsun Gong, are you talking about human words!" If it wasn't for the splitting headache now, Liu Fa had jumped up and slapped Zhangsun Gong? After covering his head and humming for a while, he said to the terrified Marquis Zhiyang, "This king asks you, what happened last night? Where are those two beauties? What happened to the dead body? Did someone try to assassinate the king?"
"Your Highness, do you really remember nothing?" Seeing his Highness looking at him with a bewildered expression, Changsun Gong said what he saw in the morning...
Before dawn, the prime minister of Changsha was woken up by his servants. It was said that there was a prefect of the capital outside asking to see him, and Changsun Gong, who was suffocating to get up, asked his subordinates to call in the person who asked to see him. If there is nothing important to shake the country, he will beat the prefect himself with a stick.
The prefect came with two school captains who were patrolling the city. All three of them were sweating profusely. Mr. Xiang, there is a big incident in the palace. Some soldiers who patrolled the city saw that the palace was shrouded in heavy fog, and the guards who guarded the gate were already dead and their heads were chopped off. I sent two teams of more than 100 troops. When people entered the mansion to check, the two teams were all mud cows entering the sea, and they had gone back and forth. Xiguan was afraid that His Royal Highness the King of Changsha would have an accident in the mansion, so he dared to disturb the dream of the Prime Minister..."
I heard that there was an accident in the palace, and now the eldest grandson is no longer sleepy. At the moment, there was no time to change the official uniform, so he put on a cloak and hurried to the front of the palace. At this time, the palace was surrounded by the officers of the prefectural yamen, but the faces of these officers were full of fear. They braved each other, but as soon as there was trouble in the palace, they might just run away.
At this time, Changsun Gong had no intention of paying attention to these officers. He looked at the Changsha Palace, which was shrouded in thick fog, and began to tremble in his heart. This strange fog only appeared inside the palace, and there was no sign of fog outside the palace. From time to time there are strange sounds in the fog.
All of Changsun Gong's fame is pinned on Changsha King Liu Fa. If Liu Fa has three strengths and two weaknesses, the first person to be blamed is him, the prime minister of Changsha. At the moment, Changsun Gong didn't care too much, and ordered the prefect again to organize people to enter the house to investigate. No matter how much it costs, we must find out the life and death of His Royal Highness the King of Changsha. Whenever there is a glimmer of hope, this Highness must be rescued.
Originally, these soldiers have already broken their courage, but there must be brave men under the heavy reward. The Minister of the State paid a hundred gold, and finally gathered twenty soldiers who were not afraid of death and rushed into the palace.
I waited for an hour without seeing the twenty soldiers come out. Just when Changsun Gong and the others were impatient, they were preparing for the fourth wave of troops to enter the palace. Dawn broke in the east, and the sky slowly lit up. Strange to say, the thick fog in the palace dissipated instantly after seeing the sun. Everyone in Changsun Gong watched as the mist dissipated quickly at a speed that the naked eye could see, revealing a magnificent Changsha palace inside.
After the fog cleared, the gloomy atmosphere inside was swept away, and it didn't look so scary anymore. At the moment, surrounded by all the officers and troops, Changsun Gong and the prefect of the capital entered the palace. After entering, I saw the purgatory-like tragic image...
The entire palace is full of dead people, most of whom were killed by swords. There are also some people who can't see the cause of death on the surface, but according to the explanations given by the accompanying people, these people's hearts are broken, and they are all scared to death. The entire palace is full of dead people, and the most bizarre is the treasure house of the palace. This is where the King of Huainan kept his private treasures, and all of Liu An's treasures would be hidden in this place.
Almost all the people who died here were raw faces. In addition to the two beauties sent by Zhao State, there were more than 30 corpses that Sun Gong had never seen before. And most of these people are monks, and when they die, they still hold various strange instruments in their hands. What was even more bizarre was the two beauties, who had also changed into cultivators, each with a bronze sword engraved with runes in their hands.
The cause of death of these people was mutual killing. From the scene, thirty-six people entered the treasury, none of them went out, and they all died in the hands of others...
Fortunately, the princess fell out with Liu An because of the beauty of Zhao Guomei, and returned to her parents' home with several princes and princesses. It was a lucky escape. However, when looking for Changsha King Liu Fa, he lost his energy. I thought that in such a big scene, His Royal Highness the King of Changsha would die, but after walking around the mansion, he found Liu Fa, the King of Changsha, who was still in a coma under a corridor. Judging from the injury on his forehead, this Highness hit the pillar in the corridor by himself and knocked himself unconscious.
There is no living person in the mansion except Liu Fa. Thinking of the brothers of the King of Changsha who like to recruit monks as disciples, Changsun Gong imagined that the King of Changsha might have recruited monks from all over the world behind his back. The tragedy in the palace was done by this Highness himself. According to the two beauties who died in the treasury, they could rely on the flower case, but this Highness was too temperamental. Isn't it the wife who stole the man? As for making such a big noise?
The king of Changsha, Liu An, returned to the gang, but he was not stupid. After hearing Changsun Gong tell that there is nothing in the palace except himself. He guessed what happened. No wonder he had torn his face that night. Xiao Liuxi, the king of Huainan, still wanted to give himself this elixir of life. It was rare that he already knew what it meant to kill by borrowing a knife at such a young age...
At the same time, in a town thirty miles away from the capital of Changsha, Xiao Liuxi heard the report that he had sent to Changsha to make detailed work. At the moment, he sighed softly and said, "There is so much trouble, it seems that the road ahead is not easy to go..."
