Fang Jianzhi stopped, and with a flash in his mind, he quickly asked Yang Captou, "Are there two adults from Shanzhou living next door to Mr. Li, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Xu? Where are they?"
Yang Captou woke up as if from a dream, "The postman at the posthouse only smelled a fishy smell from Master Li's room in the morning, and didn't notice anything strange in their room, so we didn't bother the two adults' rooms!"
"Let's go! Go to their room and have a look."
Fang Jianzhi led Yang Baotou and walked straight into the courtyard. His subordinates clasped their fists and saluted, but he did not agree. He thought that Zhang De and Xu Wuyou must not get into trouble again. After going upstairs, he came to the street facing the Of those two rooms, Fang Jianzhi pointed to the door of the third room and asked Yang Captou: "Whose room is this?"
"This is Master Xu's room."
"Knock on the door!"
Yang Baotou curled his index and middle fingers, and there was a rapid knock on the door, but there was no response from the room. Yang Baotou and Fang Jianzhi looked at each other and frowned, both with a vague foreboding.
Fang Jianzhi simply pushed hard with his right hand, and the door was pushed open easily. The two rushed into the room, only to find that there was no one inside, and the decorations inside and the quilts on the bed were neatly arranged. Fang Jianzhi cursed secretly and rushed to Zhang De's room next door. This time, Captain Yang rushed forward, without knocking, and just pushed the door hard, and easily pushed the door open. When the two of them entered the room, they saw that it was exactly the same as Mr. Xu's room. There was not a single person in the room. All the furnishings are neatly arranged. Fang Jianzhi frowned and was suspicious for a long time. Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the corridor. When he looked back, it was Lord Judge Wei Nuo.
Seeing that Master Zhang was in Master Zhang's room, Wei Nuo also stepped into the room. Seeing that there was no one in the room, Wei Nuo hurriedly asked: "Master Governor, where is Master Zhang?"
Fang Jian looked depressed and did not answer. Yang Captou also looked confused and replied: "We don't know either. The doors of Master Zhang and Master Xu were not locked just now, and they were not in the room. We don't know where they went." ”
Wei Nuo was also very troubled, "Could the two of them have gone on business?"
"It's unlikely. It's not yet midnight, so they should have just gotten up." Yang Captou said.
Fang Jianzhi suddenly said: "Let's go and have a look next door."
As soon as the three of them came to the door, a fishy smell hit their nostrils. The three of them swallowed in unison. The door was ajar. Yang Captou pushed it gently, and the door opened with a sound, and what came into view was the center of the room. a corpse at the foot of the table.
Wei Nuo covered his mouth and nose with his right hand and pointed at the body with his left hand, "Master Governor, look at this room, there are no signs of fighting!"
Fang Jianzhi nodded, "It seems that he must be an acquaintance." So he stepped forward and leaned closer to take a closer look. "There are two incisions, one in the abdomen and one in the heart. The position where the heart was inserted should be The second wound was also fatal. The pupils were dilated, and it seemed that he should have been extremely frightened before death."
"This..." Wei Nuo frowned, "Do you think Xu Wuyou and Zhang De did it? Then they fled in fear of crime."
Fang Jianzhi paused and stood up, "It's not impossible, so the plan now is to find the two of them first." Then he asked Yang Captou, "Is Mr. Li here?"
"Should be arriving soon."
At this moment, an old man dressed in official uniform outside the door, carrying a tool box on his shoulder, saluted at the door and said, "Your Majesty the Governor."
The three of them turned back together, and Yang Baotou said: "Master Governor, Li Zuo is here."
Fang Jianzhi returned the favor and said, "Old Li, come and take a look."
Old Li nodded, stepped into the house in a few steps, and placed the tool box next to the body. Old Li leaned over and looked around, inside and out. At this time, there was another sporadic sound of footsteps outside the corridor. It seemed that there was more than one person coming this time. Sure enough, when Fang Jianzhi turned back to look at the door, Marshal Gao Jun, Lu Zuo, and Yin Ji appeared at the door. The three of them were also observing the situation inside the room with stunned expressions.
Seeing that the marshal was coming, everyone in the room quickly turned around and saluted.
Gao Yun and the other three also entered the room together and asked, "Lord Governor, what is going on?"
Fang Jianzhi hurriedly replied: "Master Li was killed last night."
After Gao Yun and Lu Zuo looked at each other, they asked in surprise: "Have you found any trace of the murderer?"
"We are inspecting, and our work has just been examined on the body." Fang Jianzhi introduced the old man with a gray beard on the right to Gao Jun, "This is the work of our Lanzhou government office."
Lu Zuo bowed to Old Li, "Can you tell any clues from the corpse?"
Lao Li replied calmly: "There were only two wounds on the body. When the murderer committed the crime, the first stab should have been to the abdomen and then to the heart."
Gao Yun said: "So, this knife is the fatal injury?"
Lao Li nodded, "Yes, judging from the depth and width of the blade, the murder weapon should be a dagger! Judging from the spots on the body and the degree of ossification, the time of death should be around midnight last night."
Lu Zuo asked: "Can the murder weapon be found?"
Fang Jianzhi shook his head helplessly, "There are no other suspicious items at the scene. However, Shanzhou Sima Xu Wuyou and Chang Shi Zhangde are missing."
"Oh?" Everyone exclaimed. Gao Jun and Yin Ji both looked at Lu Zuo, their eyes seeming to ask whether the spies were the two of them, and they must have absconded out of fear of crime.
Lu Zuo quickly asked: "Have you sent someone down to look for it?"
Yang Capt. nodded and replied neatly: "We have sent people throughout the city to search."
Lu Zuo nodded, instantly full of confidence.
At this moment, Tan Ma came to report outside the door. Everyone was dumbfounded. They all thought that there must be some urgent border war when Tan Ma came to report. Gao Yun quickly responded and let them in.
Tan Ma came into the house, knelt down and reported: "Report to the marshal, there is a wave of people outside the city, coming to surrender!"
"Oh?" Gao Yun frowned, and suddenly woke up from a dream. He looked back at Lu Zuo, but he didn't expect that he had actually led someone to surrender, "Whose troops are they?"
"It's a group of bandits nearby, the leader is called Chen Tuizhi."
"How many troops?"
"Almost three thousand troops!"
After Tan Ma said this, Fang Jianzhi and others were in an uproar. Even Gao Yun was surprised. He didn't expect Brother Chen to be able to gather so many people. It was really powerful. It seems that their power in Shanlan area should not be underestimated. ah!
After hearing this, Fang Jianzhi was surprised and reported back to Gao Yun, saying: "Chen Tuizhi is a well-known gangster in our local area, and he seems to be the leader of the Green Forest Alliance rumored in the world! It is said that they often change their bases among the mountains, and He has connections with thieves and knights from all over the country. The government has been hunting him for many years, but they have never found his lair! How can he surrender to the government so easily now? Marshal Gao, there must be fraud in this! "
Gao Jun chuckled, "What are you afraid of? Let me see what kind of wishful thinking he has." In fact, Gao Jun was secretly laughing in his heart. How could Fang Jianzhi know the clues to this.
Tan Ma continued to report: "Marshal Qi, Chen Tuizhi was shouting outside the city and said that he had sent you a meeting gift!"
Everyone was shocked, meeting ceremony?
