Along the way from Fucai Fang to the scene of the crime, Qi Xianke kept scolding Yue Kuohai for being unkind and enjoying dragging his brothers into trouble; the latter, the dignified commander of the Jinyi Guards, was scolded like a third grandson, but he Not annoyed either. Based on Yue Kuohai's understanding of Lord Catcher, he knew very well: Qi Xianke said that he would hide in danger, but in fact he had some expectations for the case. As for why Qi Xianke developed such a contradictory mentality, it may be attributed to the so-called "detective's pride".
Half an hour later, outside the south of the city, there was an official road. Qi Xianke understood what Yue Kuohai meant by "many clues" as soon as he took a look at the crime scene from a distance.
"How many troops did Jin Yiwei lose?"
Qi Xianke stopped the reins dozens of meters away from the scene, dismounted and approached on foot. Just now, he was sitting on the horse and looking up, and saw a small field of blood in front of him, which was made up of corpses.
This means...a lot of people died there.
"Fifty-two, a full two-guard manpower, including two Qianhu who led the team."
The Jinyi guards who were guarding the scene put Qi Xianke and Yue Kuohai in. The two of them did not hesitate and immediately started to investigate around.
Although they hold high positions, they are not office-based officials who are far away from the front line. Let's put it this way, in terms of autopsy and examination skills alone, these two masters' attainments are much better than ordinary ones. Therefore, the Jin Yiwei and the six-door entourage brought by the two men were put aside at the moment, and they watched quietly how the two men would perform a reasoning show later.
The on-site investigation this time took much longer than the Beggar Clan massacre case. In addition to the fact that the number of the deceased had greatly increased, there were also quite a few traces of fighting at the scene. They seemed to be telling Qi Xianke and Yue Kuohai: This was a battle with great disparity in strength between the two sides, but the Jin Yiwei were not without the power to fight back.
At three quarters, Qi Xianke and Yue Kuohai, two experienced ancient investigators, finished collecting evidence and began exchanging clues. Qi Xianke was the first to speak:
"The time of death of these Jin Yiwei was approximately between Zi Shi and Chou Shi this morning."
The identity information of the deceased was identified and provided by Yue Kuohai, an acquaintance in the same system: "The fifty-two deceased are our imperial guards, and the leaders of the thousands of households are Wang Hu and Zhao Shiqian."
Qi Xianke walked around to the two adjacent corpses on the left front. Even though he had not known the two Jinyi Guards Qianhu before, the difference in official uniforms between the latter and other corpses could help Qi Xianke quickly identify them. Identity: "I have heard about these two people before, "Iron Hand Capture" and "One Knife in Beijing". They have great names, but they are second-rate characters with mediocre martial arts skills."
"But their characters are very cautious. Even if their martial arts are low, it is not easy to kill them." Yue Kuohai is still very knowledgeable about his opponents: "Of course, if the strength of the two of them is very different from that of their opponents, then No matter how hard we try, we will still get the same result."
Like the others in the Beggar Clan, Zhao Shiqian died by cutting with a sharp weapon, but the difference was that his body was relatively complete - he was split in two with a knife from the left shoulder to the right lower abdomen.
Wang Hu's death was much more miserable. Above his chest, even his neck and head were missing. The left shoulder, lungs, and right shoulder of the remaining body could be connected into a semicircle, as if they were struck by some kind of giant. The beast in the mouth took a bite.
In fact, Qi Xianke and Yue Kuohai didn't find Wang Hu's missing body, but they dug up a splash of flesh not far away. This made both of them come to a terrible conclusion in their hearts: Wang Qianhu was probably punched/palmed in the chest by the other party, and the punch/palm was so powerful.

The force was so large that all his affected parts and surrounding flesh and blood tissue were scattered and sent flying.
"I still can't tell what the sword technique is. The murderer's sword technique is beyond the level of a warrior like me. It's 80% likely to be the same person who killed the Beggar Clan. But the killing of the king This move of Tiger... I think is quite similar to the Beggar Clan's top martial art, the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon."
"Yes. The movements of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms are simple and unremarkable, but the moves are infinitely powerful. The styles are simple but profound. The key point is to use your strength to exert force. You can win with strength. Every move is Both palms have overwhelming power, designed to defeat the opponent's bells and whistles."
Yue Kuohai himself relies on the "Palm Technique" to dominate the world, and he only knows a lot more about the Beggar Clan's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms: "But... don't say whether there is such a skill among the Beggar Clan in recent years. He is an ordinary person, even the former leader of the Beggar Clan, Zheng Qianzhong, who mastered the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms thirty years ago, would not be able to use such power, right?"
"If Gang Leader Zheng has been alive until now and is still practicing hard for decades, then it is understandable that his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms have reached this state."
Qi Xianke's hypothesis is only theoretically possible. The actual situation is that Zheng Qianzhong has been dead for many years. Unless Gang Leader Zheng comes back from the dead, this case has nothing to do with him.
"Speaking of which, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms are different from the Dog Beating Stick Technique. The latter can only be passed down from generation to generation by the Beggar Clan leaders, and the disciples of other sects practice incomplete and abridged versions; while the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms are allowed to be passed on to outsiders. , members inside and outside the gang can practice." Yue Kuohai provided another new idea: "Perhaps one of the murderers who is good at boxing and kicking kung fu has nothing to do with the Beggar Gang?"
"It's not impossible."
Qi Xianke removed his scrutinizing gaze from Wang Hu's headless body and turned to Zhao Shiqian, who was bisecting to the side: "But there is something wrong with what you said."
"Which point?"
"You thought there were two murderers who massacred Jin Yiwei. One used a knife and the other used a palm."
"What's wrong?"
"I think that the "murderer who is good at fists and kicks" in your mouth does not exist at all. In other words, he and the mysterious swordsman who wiped out the Beggar Gang are actually the same person."
These words were so shocking that even Yue Kuohai, who had always been mature and steady in character and style, had a look on his face that he couldn't hide: "Are you sure?"
"certainly."
Don’t blame Commander Yue for losing control of his expression management. From a God's perspective, you all naturally know that Wang Hu, Zhao Shiqian and others were killed by one person. But Yue Kuohai and Qi Xianke did not have omniscient eyes. When faced with this crime scene where there were corpses with two different ways of death, most normal people would think that there was more than one murderer.
However, Qi Shenqing's words were almost equivalent to declaring that the great master of swordsmanship was also unparalleled in his martial arts, which was a conclusion that subverted the traditional knowledge of martial arts.
This is different from Lin He's "One Crane and Three Skills". Deputy Lin is proficient in Qinggong, Swordsmanship, and Hidden Weapons at the same time. He is more like an academic master who is good at arts and sciences. If you want to compare the actions of the mysterious murderer to an analogy, it is like a person participating in the Olympics and winning gold medals at the same time in fencing, weightlifting, and table tennis, which are extremely unrelated events. The former is acceptable, but the latter is completely a land god.
"No." Yue Kuohai rarely doubted Qi Xianke's statement: "Where is the evidence?"
"The evidence is the fifty-two corpses lying on the ground right now." Qi Xianke prompted: "Pay attention
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Take a look at where they were standing and pay attention to the similarities and differences with the last murder scene we just investigated. "
"Um……"
Even though he did not come from a six-door background, Yue Kuohai's crime-solving skills were honed in his almost twenty-year career in Jinyiwei. After receiving the prompt, he observed for a moment and then said what Qi Xianke was thinking: "There is something wrong indeed."
"I know very well the level of my subordinates. If I compare them one by one, even the Beggars Clan are slightly stronger. Regardless of whether the opponent is one or two, they have no reason to compete with those at that level. The murderer fought back and forth."
Qi Xianke took over the conversation: "So there is only one possibility - the murderer is deliberately letting things go."
"The murder case in the Beggar Gang was relatively simple. The murderer relied on his unparalleled knife speed and used his strong internal force to unleash volleying slashes, killing sixteen people in an instant."
"Our current case is different. Because there are more victims, the traces of the fight are more messy, and coupled with the misdirection of the murderer's unclear intentions, many clues are not so clear. For example...through the position where the body lies, By looking at the direction of the deceased's face and gaze, and eliminating unnecessary interference, we can draw the same conclusion as in the previous case - the gangster who killed the Jin Yiwei was still alone."
"No matter in what posture these fifty-two imperial guards fell to the ground, whether they were attacking or defending, some of them even escaped and were killed by the murderer from behind. With your eyesight, Yue Kuohai, you can tell that they were listed in the list. It’s not difficult to capture the number of enemy targets, right?”
"...Ah, indeed." In front of the irrefutable evidence, Yue Kuohai accepted this unbelievable fact: "I have heard rumors. It is said that each of those peerless strong men who entered the Tao through martial arts can do this. There is no move to win, but one move reflects all the ways. When I see it today, I know that what I said is true."
After lamenting for a while, Yue Kuohai felt that he still had to listen to Qi Xianke's analysis: "You came down from the scene of two murders. Can you try to identify a few suspicious characters?"
"How many? To be honest, I can't even tell you a name." Qi Xianke shook his head vigorously: "Master Yue, you think too highly of me. Not to mention that the murderer is elusive and fastidious in his actions. It would be impossible to track him down without water; what's more, even if I confirm the identity of that guy, with six doors and down, plus your royal guards, I'm afraid I won't be able to gather enough people who are qualified to participate in the siege. A first-rate master of this beast, right?"
"Then so many of my Jin Yiwei brothers died in vain?" Yue Kuohai was not willing to act in a hurry, but the objective reality was before him. Due to the limited conditions, Qi Xianke, the catcher of the gods, could not find the real culprit. Even if he did lock in a few suspects, the latter would be of the same nature as "Zheng Qianzhong", and they were inferring those who might have committed the crime based on their strength. This simply doesn't work.
In the end, after Qi Xianke explained the pros and cons, Yue Kuohai left feeling unsatisfied and confused about the identity of the murderer and his purpose. The storm of last night's anti-military operation has not subsided, and the Jin Yiwei still needs him to return to take charge of the overall situation.
Qi Xianke stayed here, and his explanation was: "I want to find out some clues about the murderer."
Yue Kuohai has no doubt about it. He understands that Qi Xianke usually has such a "difficult" character and attitude when facing difficult cases. Even if there is a high probability that the murderer will not be caught and brought to justice, Qi Xianke must reveal as much of his identity information as possible, even just a little bit.
In a word, Yue Kuohai is very relieved when Qi Xianke does his work.
