Yan Zheng's steps were slightly panicked, and he almost tripped over as he walked too fast.
He stood in front of the desk and said nervously, "Something is going wrong! As you expected, there is indeed a big problem with the barracks in Kyoto."
Sure enough! Li Huaiyun was calm and composed. He had seen big scenes. He must not panic when encountering such a thing.
"What's the problem? There are few people in the barracks, or are they plotting something?"
Yan Zheng said softly, "It's not these problems, but the whole barracks seems to be under a curse, it's colorless and the management is chaotic!"
"Oh, is there such a big problem?"
"Yes! The soldiers in the barracks have no discipline at all. They are walking around in twos and threes. There are even some people who are not seen inside the sentry post. They must have left their posts without permission. There are also a small number of people who walked out of the camp and did not know where to go. Where, they won’t reply when you ask them, they just look at you with hateful eyes, and most of them have a smell on them,”
"smell?"
"Yes, the stench has been there for a long time! Their eyes are distracted and they look listless,"
Li Huaiyun frowned tightly. From this description, it seemed like these soldiers were smoking big cigarettes.
"Undisciplined, chaotic, brutal, and aggressive, and retaining primitive animality! What kind of soldiers are they? It is not an exaggeration to say that they are beasts,"
"It's serious!"
"Yes! The people I sent out to investigate also specifically asked the villagers in the surrounding area,"
Yan Zheng sighed, "It turns out that all kinds of crimes were happening in that place. There were even several cases in one village. The women in the village were taken to the barracks and suffered persecution."
"What?" Li Huaiyun and Mu Yuan were both shocked. They never thought that such a thing would happen.
Especially Mu Yuan, who is a woman, is even more furious! "We will never give up until this matter is resolved and the villagers are not given an explanation! It's really too much."
Li Huaiyun asked, "Where is the guard of this camp? Why do you allow such ridiculous things to happen in the barracks? The soldiers have no military discipline at all!"
"It's such a mess and no one cares about it?"
He responded solemnly, "This is exactly what I want to say. The general Chen Feng who leads this barracks has been missing for many days! No one is concerned. At present, the superiors have sent people to the barracks."
"Missing!"
"Yes! And the arm you brought was determined to be the guard of this barracks, Chen Feng, based on the confessions of those people and the severed fingers."
Yan Zheng pursed his lips, "This Chen Feng suddenly disappeared in the barracks many days ago! Someone once looked for him, but they searched the area around the barracks and couldn't find him."
Li Huaiyun was very confused, "Disappeared without any reason?"
"Yes! However, a few days ago, Chen Feng's body was found in the surrounding area."
found it! Li Huaiyun immediately shouted, "Quick! Tell me everything about Chen Feng!"
Yan Zheng stood next to the table and looked at the arm on the table. "Before he disappeared, this guard once patrolled the top of the city wall in Kyoto,"
"Fengziying is a military camp stationed around Kyoto. It occupies the Xun position in Kyoto's Feng Shui position. Chen Feng joined the army when he was twelve or thirteen years old. He has experienced dozens of battles, large and small, including with foreign troops. The monsters who fought were the defenders who emerged from the dead, and were known for their strict military management, and at the same time they had a hot temper."
"His martial arts level is pretty good. Although his talent is mediocre, he is better than his hard work. However, he is now a corpse, and even his arms have been bitten!"
Li Huaiyun asked curiously, "What state is this guy in?"
"It's the late stage of the God Refining Realm!"
"The person who bit off his arm is above the level of God Refining! However, this level is a bit unsatisfactory nowadays. It is quite normal to lose an arm!"
"Even my life is gone!" Yan Zheng said.
Li Huaiyun asked, "Then have you asked other people? Do you know how this guy's arm was broken!"
Yan Zheng shook his head, "Because the whole person disappeared inexplicably! This made everyone in the barracks not sure what to do, and no one paid attention to how the arm was broken!"
"These people don't even know about such a big thing happening around them!" Mu Yuan sighed, "They are too insensitive!"
"Without the guard, these soldiers are like bandits, able to cause chaos around without being punished."
Li Huaiyun thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, has anyone seen him before he disappeared?"
"He has seen a lot of people, basically everyone in the barracks he manages, and has also been to the palace. In addition, he has also visited various patrol points in the palace, and then returned to his tent in the barracks. I stayed there until the evening of the next day and didn’t come out.”
"When someone called him to have a meal, they found that Chen Feng was not in the account. He seemed to have disappeared suddenly! Those soldiers thought something was wrong and did not search nearby!"
"It wasn't until the next morning when they entered the tent again that they discovered it was filled with blood and muscle tissue scattered on the ground, which made people feel particularly horrified."
"At this point, the general's sudden departure, the items in the tent scattered all over the floor, and the blood on the floor and beside the bed made people notice that something was wrong."
"Later, after a large-scale search, the general's body was found. It was fished into a tree in the mountain behind the garrison!"
"The corpse was facing the barracks, with its back in the shade. A hanging corpse like this has a strong evil spirit. Moreover, there were many bite marks on his body and he only had one arm."
Yan Zheng put his hand on that arm, "The other arm, I'm afraid it's this one."
At this point, his hair stood up and he felt a little uncomfortable, "Also, do you know what was wrapped around the neck of the corpse and hung it up?"
Since the other party asked that, I'm afraid it's not just a simple rope.
Li Huaiyun barely had time to think before he patted the desk with his hand, "Obviously, it's the black hair that grew out of the muscle tissue of his body."
"Yes, you guessed it right," Yan Zheng said in surprise, "By the way, you were not at the scene at the time, how could you know about this situation? Isn't this amazing?"
Li Huaiyun pointed to the arm on the desk, "Look carefully to see if that's what happened."
Yan Zheng looked at the desk, and then used his fingers to pull the arm. When he saw the hand bones on the desk, the arm had been cut open, and there were black hairs in the cut flesh.
He was suddenly startled, his heart beating rapidly, and he almost screamed. He really didn't expect that he would meet him here, "This...this arm also has black hair? How could...this happen? Is it possible?" dangerous?"
"Don't worry! Princess Mu Yuan has blocked this thing and won't attack others here for the time being!"
Yan Zheng cast a surprised look at Mu Yuan, not expecting that the princess actually had this skill.
Although he said this, he still felt a little scared. After all, the black hair directly killed the guard.
Li Huaiyun stroked his chin, constantly thinking about various possibilities in his mind, "This guard cannot die for no reason. I believe that something must have happened before this."
"you guess!"
Yan Zheng said with a serious face, he knows, with Li Huaiyun's ability, it is impossible not to guess what happened!
"Could it be that this guy has also been to the sewers?"
Yan Zheng showed a smile, this guy is indeed not simple, "It's really not hard for you, your guess is quite accurate, it is indeed like this."
Li Huaiyun asked, "I'm very confused, this guy is a guard of the barracks, why should he go to the sewer in the palace?"
Mu Yuan interjected, "We must ask that Hunjun about this matter! Without his will, no one would dare to come down."
"Speaking of this, there is something strange!"
"Which one is weird?"
Yan Zheng said, "It's not just Chen Feng, there are other people who came to this sewer, and this person's identity is also extraordinary!"
"The others have unusual identities!" Li Huaiyun asked, "Who are they? Are they also relatives of the emperor?"
"No, I went to the sewers with this general named Chen Feng. It was Xing Jiren, the Minister of Punishment!"
Yan Zheng looked at Li Huaiyun with a heavy expression, "Don't you think it's a coincidence?"
The surname of the Minister of Punishment is Xing! Is the director of the Jiaofang Department named Jiao? Li Huaiyun finally met another guy with an interesting name.
"Ministry of Punishment! The previous case opened by Wei Shun was only after the Ministry of Punishment intervened that there was no evidence and the case could not be solved."
"Then, they came to this sewer again! I always felt that something was wrong with this."
Yan Zheng clapped his hands, "I think so too! So, I think someone tricked them into going to the sewer and got something on them!"
"Deception? How could it be possible!" Mu Yuan asked, "Without the will of the Hunjun, how could anyone go down the sewer."
"The princess hasn't been back for a long time!"
"Probably! However, I still don't believe what you said."
"The situation is indeed different from what the princess knew. Since the water in the palace cannot be treated, the roads in the palace are often filled with water, which greatly affects travel. At that time, the emperor lifted the ban."
"As long as you get the promise, you can enter, but you must before the sun sets!"
"And for these two people to appear in the sewer at the same time, it seems there must be slight differences! I just don't know what is going on?"
Li Huaiyun pondered for a while, then knocked on the desk with his hand, "Could it be that these two people were the instigators of the fire, which led to others' revenge."
"It's very possible! However, it's impossible to be so bold. This is the palace. Are you treating the guards here as food?"
Li Huaiyun briefly told what happened to him, and then told him that Wei Shunkai was probably a man in black robe.
Faced with this speculation, Yan Zheng was very surprised.
"What!" Yan Zheng was quite surprised, "I didn't expect that this person is still alive and colluding with monsters to cause trouble in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Then how should we respond?"
Li Huaiyun said, "The enemy is in the dark, and we are in the open. Only by finding more clues can we crack their intelligence network and know the follow-up of their plan."
"However, it still takes a while."
"We must catch them all!!"
Yan Zheng thought for a while, "Yes! These people must not be allowed to live!"
"Then what's going on about the other person!". "
