Mo Shoucheng said that judging from the injuries on the body of the deceased, the murderer only used one sword, and he killed eight people with one sword.
Mo Shoucheng felt that even with his skills, he could not achieve such an effect.
If there was a fight, he might not be the murderer's opponent.
The eight people who died were all wearing sabers.
However, they were all killed before they even had a chance to draw their swords.
Moreover, he also felt that the method of killing seemed to be somewhat similar to the swordsmanship of their Sword Control Sect.
But even in the Sword Control Sect, there are not many such masters.
Apart from his master Tong Lao, only six of his senior brothers and sisters can have such sword skills.
However, Child Elder and his six other disciples have been on Piaomiao Peak recently, so it is absolutely impossible to be them.
Duan Wenjun frowned, looked at the still trembling head catcher and shouted, "Are you the county government catcher? Which room does your county magistrate live in?"
Last night, the county magistrate Sun Dafu summoned everyone in the county government to work overtime. The head catcher Wang Futian couldn't hold on anymore because he accidentally ate a bad meal, so he just took leave and went home to rest for the night.
When he woke up this morning, he felt a little more comfortable, so he thought about coming to the county government office as soon as possible.
He could feel that the magistrate's temper was not very good recently.
As servants, they naturally have to be very careful.
Otherwise, being scolded is a small matter, but losing your job is a big deal.
However, he had just arrived at the county government office. He wanted to see what his brothers were doing through the crack in the door, but unexpectedly, he saw corpses all over the ground.
Seeing that his brothers who worked together on weekdays turned into cold corpses overnight, he was immediately frightened.
At this moment, when Duan Wenjun shouted, Wang Futian was frightened and woke up.
The arrester and the government servant were both killed. I wonder if the county magistrate is okay?
After all, Wang Futian was a head catcher. He reacted now and became much calmer. He led Duan Wenjun towards the back, "The magistrate lives in the backyard!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Shoucheng's figure flashed and bounced towards the backyard.
Duan Wenjun and Wang Futian followed closely behind.
Just as Duan Wenjun was worried, the backyard of the county government was also in a mess.
Several pine trees on both sides of the yard were cut off, and there was even a pine tree whose branches had been cut off, leaving only a bare trunk.
Apparently there had been a brutal fight.
Wang Futian called to Magistrate Sun and walked inside.
The first thing I saw was the pavilion next to the rockery.
Sun Dafu lay on the ground in a pool of blood.
His neck was almost completely severed and hung to one side, leaving only the skin on the back of his neck connected to his body, making his death look very strange.
His eyes were bulging and slightly protruding, as if something incredible had happened to him before he died.
Around the corpse, blood reflected a large area of the ground red. Although it was no longer flowing at this moment, it was still very fresh. It was obvious that the tragedy had just occurred not long ago.
Sun Dafu's master also had a look of horror on his face and fell next to Sun Dafu. There was also a deep wound on his neck that could be seen in the bone.
Looking around, they found three more bodies.
They were all wearing black night clothes, and they were all killed with one sword.
Mo Shoucheng squatted beside them, opened the cuff of their left hand, and frowned, "With black mandala flower tattoos, these three people are all from the Shadow Sect."
Further back is the inner hall, where Sun Dafu lives his daily life.
Sun Dafu's wife and children live here.
However, at this time, there was no one left alive.
"This, this..." Seeing the scene in the courtyard, Wang Futian was so frightened that he could not speak.
The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid.
Overnight, everyone in the county government was killed.
If he hadn't gone home to rest because of a stomachache last night, I'm afraid he would have become one of them at this moment, a cold corpse lying on the ground.
"No, there is one person missing!" Suddenly, Wang Futian was shocked and exclaimed.
"Who is missing?" Duan Wenjun and Mo Shoucheng said in unison.
Wang Futian said that a middle-aged man was missing.
He didn't know the specific identity.
Sun Dafu returned to the county office yesterday afternoon.
Those who came back with him at that time were these three people in night clothes and a middle-aged man with a mustache.
The man looked very decadent and tired at the time. Wang Futian thought he was a prisoner captured by the magistrate, so he took a second look.
But unexpectedly, Sun Zhixian brought the middle-aged man and the three people in night clothes to the county government to settle down.
Only then did Wang Futian find out that the man was also a friend of the county magistrate.
However, at this moment, all three men in black were killed, but the middle-aged man was missing, which was obviously something abnormal.
Duan Wenjun was shocked when he heard this and hurriedly asked what the middle-aged man looked like.
After describing it, I immediately understood who the middle-aged man was if he wasn't Li Deming.
The people from the Shadow Sect intercepted Li Deming from Luo Liangping's hands, and then took him back to the Gongxian County Government Office with Sun Dafu.
But at this moment, no matter whether they were the people working in the county government or the people from the Shadow Sect, they were all murdered, and he was the only one who was missing.
Duan Wenjun began to guess, could it be that Li Deming killed these people and escaped?
Or did someone rescue or kidnap Li Deming and then kill others?
"I wonder who the young master is, why do you care so much about my magistrate?" At this moment, Wang Futian finally noticed something strange and stared at Duan Wenjun and asked.
From the words and deeds of Mo Shoucheng and Duan Wenjun, Wang Futian has concluded that they are definitely not ordinary people.
However, the identity of these two people made him a little confused.
It seems that these two people are not locals.
Something happened to the county government, and they appeared here. Wang Futian wondered if there was something fishy about it.
Duan Wenjun had no intention of concealing his identity. "I am Duan Wenjun from Wangjiang Duanjiabao. I originally wanted to find out about an old incident from Sun Zhixian today, but unexpectedly I encountered something like this."
After saying that, he let out a long sigh.
"Are you the eldest young master of the Duan family?" Wang Futian's eyes lit up. "You are the eldest young master of the Duan family wine shop?"
"Oh? Do you also know Duanjia Liquor?" Duan Wenjun was stunned.
Wang Futian nodded. He happened to send an official document to Wangjiang County a few days ago. He heard that the Shao Dao at Duanjia Restaurant was very good and there were many fresh foods, so he went to eat there.
It was also at that time that he realized that all the fine wine and food were actually made by a young master, which really surprised him.
Therefore, he remembered the name of the eldest young master of the Duan family.
When Duan Wenjun heard this, he couldn't help but smile lightly. He didn't expect that the reputation of his Duan family wine shop had spread to Gong County.
However, at this moment, his situation was a bit embarrassing.
Even he himself felt that it was too much of a coincidence that he appeared here.
Fortunately, Wang Futian didn't seem to doubt his intentions.
Everyone in the county government lost their lives, but he was the only one to escape.
At this moment, after calming down, Wang Futian first asked someone to go to Lingxiao City to report the major case to the county governor, and then carefully surveyed the scene.
Duan Wenjun also wrote a letter, asking Wang Futian to send people to Lingxiao City to help deliver it to Chai Jingyun in Prince Rui's Mansion.
After coming out of the county government office, Duan Wenjun and the others did not leave immediately because Wang Futian said that when the county governor sent someone over, they would still need their help to cooperate as witnesses.
This wait is one day.
In the evening, the people sent by the county governor finally arrived.
What surprised Duan Wenjun was that Chai Jingyun also came in person.
Also coming with Chai Jingyun was Luo Liangping, who he stayed in Lingxiao City for one night.
Feihong, the county guard of Lingxiao County, had already proposed to retire and return to his hometown, so this time he did not come down in person. Instead, he asked his two brothers, Wang Xiao and Wang Zheng, the county magistrate, to come down with a group of government officials.
Wang Xiao and Wang Zhi both knew Chai Jingyun's identity, so they naturally followed him.
Chai Jingyun stayed at Gong County Inn, which was only thirty to fifty meters away from the county government office.
After surveying the scene, Chai Jingyun walked towards the inn surrounded by everyone.
Along the way, he frowned, looked at Duan Wenjun and said, "Brother Duan, I'm afraid this is not a coincidence. We just found evidence that Sun Dafu was a gangster, and he was killed. I suspect there is someone behind him." , these people are killing people and silencing them."
Duan Wenjun was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately asked, "Second Young Master, when you were investigating Sun Dafu, did you find a person named Li Deming?"
"Li Deming? It sounds familiar." Chai Jingyun stopped, frowned, and started thinking.
