Chen Yutian looked at the embroidered shoes carefully and frowned slightly.
For some reason, he always felt that the mud on the shoes was a bit strange, but he couldn't put his finger on what was so strange.
After much deliberation, there is no answer. Chen Yutian decided not to think about the matter for the time being, but looked at Bai Xiuxiu's body.
"When is the estimated time of death of the deceased?" He looked at the body and asked Han Wuzuo on the side.
"It was about the second watch the day before yesterday."
"It's time for the second watch?" Chen Yutian's expression changed.
Han Wuzuo nodded slightly and said, "Yes. Sir, is there any problem?"
"No...it's nothing." Chen Yutian waved his hand slightly and smiled, but in his eyes, there was a flash of extremely obscure thoughts.
At this time, a group of headhunters suddenly rushed in.
"Sir! A man who calls himself Tianying is asking to see you. He says he has something important to report to Mr. Chen."
"Tianying?" Chen Yutian heard the words and asked the head catcher, "Where is he now?"
"Waiting in the hall!"
After hearing this, Chen Yutian immediately left the autopsy room and went to the hall to take a look. He saw Tianying inside, and the look on his face was quite anxious. He didn't know what the reason was.
"Tianying, why are you here?"
Seeing Chen Yutian, Tianying came to him immediately and said: "Yutian, it's not good, Princess Xuanxi has been poisoned!!"
"What!"
Upon hearing the news, Chen Yutian was immediately stunned!
The next moment, without saying a word, he turned into an afterimage and left the government office! !
…
…
"Dad, everyone is running to investigate the case. Is it really okay for us to do this?" Lin Tao couldn't help but ask as he looked at his father sitting at the tea table, drinking tea leisurely.
Lin Dao gently picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of tea, and said, "What's wrong? Anyway, I'm not good at things that use my brain."
Lin Tao was slightly speechless.
"Besides, our coming out today is not just for fun." Lin Dao added, "We came out this time to meet an important person."
"Oh? An important person?" Lin Tao was slightly startled.
Lin Dao waved his hand slightly, stopped talking, and just drank tea silently. But in his usually indifferent eyes, there was a rare flash of something strange.
It can be seen that the person he meets is extremely important to him! !
And just as the father and son were resting and drinking tea in this tea stall, a conflict suddenly broke out in the alley next to them!
I saw an unkempt beggar woman with disheveled hair suddenly appearing from the alley.
His face was hidden under his messy hair and could not be seen clearly, but his clothes were all in tatters. After he appeared, he staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.
Immediately, a few rogues walked out of the alley.
One of them was arrogant and condescending, looking at the beggar woman with arrogance, and a very lewd smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Ugly thing, why don't you go out and ask about my brother Xiong's status in Youzhou? Since you are begging in my territory, then according to the rules, you must pay me protection money..."
As the man spoke, his eyes stared directly at the few taels of silver tightly clutched in the beggar woman's hands! This is what this beggar woman gained in nearly a day!
"Bring it to me!"
The man who called himself "Brother Xiong" grinned, and then waved his hand. The two scoundrels behind him had already walked behind the beggar woman, completely blocking her retreat.
Then, Brother Xiong stepped forward, grabbed the beggar woman's hand that was tightly holding the silver, and opened it with force.
How could his strength be resisted by a little beggar woman?
Seeing that the beggar woman was about to be snatched away from her silver, suddenly, a young but slightly deep voice sounded!
"stop!!"
The sound sounded, and all the gangsters were slightly stunned. Then they followed the sound and saw a girl appearing in front of them.
She is obviously not very old, and her face is still childish, but the look on her face contains a composure and calmness that is completely inappropriate for her age.
"How can a few grown men bully a weak woman?"
The girl looked at the gangsters and spoke softly. A touch of disdain and disgust flashed in her eyes!
Brother Xiong was stunned for a moment when he saw the girl, and then he grinned and sneered.
"Where did this yellow-haired girl come from? How dare you meddle in my business? I think you are impatient, right? Come on, teach me a lesson!"
The ruffians behind him waved their fists and rushed towards the girl.
However, upon seeing this, the girl was unhurried. As her feet moved lightly, her whole body was like a ghostly shadow, shuttling between the rogues.
Its speed was astonishing, and in just a few breaths, it made those rogues dizzy.
This scene fell in the eyes of Lin Tao, who was leisurely drinking tea at a tea stall not far away, and immediately aroused his interest!
As both martial arts practitioners, he could naturally tell that this girl's skills were at the same level as his, and that they were both at the highest stage of the mortal realm. It's just that she doesn't know what kind of body skills she has practiced to achieve such speed.
This kind of speed is naturally more than enough to deal with those rogues, but it still falls short of the firepower to deal with the leader of the rogues!
After all, the other party is also a warrior who has achieved great success in the mortal realm!
Thinking of this, Lin Tao couldn't help but sweat for the unknown girl.
At this time, Lin Dao also noticed the situation at the entrance of the alley.
Immediately, he frowned slightly.
The alley where the accident occurred is adjacent to the main street. There are many passers-by passing by on the street, but they turn a blind eye to it. At most, they only glance at it and then feel a little pity for the young girl.
Lin Dao also noticed the young girl.
"This girl is only twelve or thirteen years old! She has practiced such body skills at such a young age. Not bad! Not bad! She can compete with you!" As he said that, he looked at his son.
Immediately, he discovered something strange about his son.
"Are you worried about that girl?" he asked.
Lin Tao looked at his father and nodded slightly.
At this time, the battle in the alley was coming to an end. While the girl was moving, she used both palms to knock those rogues to the ground!
The screams are endless!
Seeing this, Brother Xiong smiled instead of being angry. His cold voice echoed in his ears, "It turns out that you are still a practicing master! But, little girl, haven't your family taught you not to meddle in other people's business?"
The moment he finished speaking, Brother Xiong was carrying an unparalleled momentum, like an evil god, slapping the girl hard!
There was a sneer on his face, and a cold light flashed in his left hand!
"not good!"
In the distance, Lin Tao secretly screamed. He could clearly see that the thing flashing with cold light was clearly a dagger!
But the girl obviously didn't notice.
Seeing Brother Xiong charging towards him, she did not choose to confront him head-on. Instead, she chose to take advantage of her body skills and suddenly retreated backwards!
This was a very wise response, but the opponent's speed was somewhat beyond imagination.
In an instant, the opponent was in front of her, and the huge fist magnified rapidly in the girl's eyes!
A sarcastic sneer appeared on Brother Xiong's face!
As she sneered, the shadow of the fist in front of the girl's eyes suddenly faded and disappeared.
But the opponent's left hand suddenly poked out at the same time!
Sharp and cold light stabbed out at the same time!
Seeing that the girl was about to die, a sword energy suddenly came out from the diagonal stab, with unparalleled majesty, it went straight to Brother Xiong's head!
Brother Xiong can only retreat, he can only retreat!
If you don't retreat, the price will be your own life!
"who is it?"
Stabilizing his body, Brother Xiong took a deep breath and asked coldly.
"it's me!"
In the distance, Lin Tao held a knife and walked slowly towards this side.
Although he has been following Gongsun Xiwen, after all, he is also the son of Langlin Sword, and he is also not weak in sword skills! The sword energy just now was caused by him. Otherwise, with Brother Xiong's skill, how could he have avoided it.
Brother Xiong's expression darkened slightly when he saw this.
He could see that the young man who took action had the same skill as him. Under normal circumstances, he might not be his opponent.
But the other party was actually a swordsman.
And he is also a swordsman who has mastered sword skills!
Everyone in the world knows that swordsmen and swordsmen who have mastered sword energy and sword energy are much stronger than those of the same level. You can even fight across levels!
This is definitely not what I can deal with now.
What's more, behind him, there is an even more terrifying swordsman.
Brother Xiong glanced slightly at Lin Dao, who was still drinking tea behind Lin Tao.
With just one glance, Brother Xiong's body suddenly shook!
He felt as if he was in the boundless torrent of sword energy. It seemed that if he made the slightest move, he would be shattered to pieces by these sword energies!
Big drops of sweat seeped out from his forehead!
His body was trembling slightly involuntarily, with veins bulging all over his body, and his knuckles were even turning white.
On his face, there was an extremely frightened look, gushing out!
"terrible!!"
Brother Xiong quickly looked away from Lin Dao, and when he looked at Lin Tao again, his eyes suddenly changed.
"To be able to sit with such a terrifying swordsman, the young man in front of me must not be an ordinary person. A good man will not suffer the consequences of the present. Now, the only way to leave is!"
Thinking of this, Brother Xiong ran directly towards the alley behind him without hesitation. The scoundrels who had been knocked to the ground by the girl before saw their boss escaping, woke up from pretending to be dead, and followed closely.
Seeing them leaving, the girl breathed a sigh of relief.
And the beggar woman who kept the silver came over and thanked the girl: "Thank you so much, Heroine, for your help!"
"It's just a little effort, nothing worth mentioning."
The girl waved her hands slightly, then gathered her inner strength and gently calmed down the inner breath in her body.
"Thank you for your help, young hero!" The beggar woman thanked Lin Tao again.
Lin Tao also waved his hand and said with a smile: "Auntie, you're welcome. It's just a little effort. It doesn't have to be like this."
The beggar woman thanked the two again, and then left the place.
However, when Lin Tao looked at her back, he felt slightly strange.
This beggar woman looks like she belongs to a poor family in both dress and appearance, but why is her speech and behavior so elegant, as if she comes from a wealthy family?
And what happened to her face? Why don't you show your face to others?
"Just now...thank you for coming to the rescue!"
While he was thinking, a voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the young man's thoughts. He raised his head and saw the girl he had just rescued standing in front of him.
She didn't seem to be very good at talking to others, but her short words of thanks directly made her blush.
"It's nothing. That guy was scared away by my father. If you really want to say it, it was actually my father who saved you." Lin Tao pointed at Lin Dao with a smile and said, "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. I My name is Lin Tao, what’s your name?”
"Han Tong!"
The girl's pretty face turned red again and she whispered.
…
…
Chen Yutian left the state office and hurried to Guanyi as quickly as possible.
To take a shortcut, he chose an abandoned alley. Passing through this alley to reach Guanyi can save half the journey.
But halfway there, a butterfly dart suddenly appeared in the void, carrying a murderous aura and shooting out!
Chen Yutian did not dare to neglect, and at the same time as he stepped back, he suddenly raised his right hand, and the seven-inch flying knife on his fingernail suddenly turned into a stream of light and met the butterfly dart.
Ding……
The crisp sound of gold and iron suddenly sounded, and the butterfly dart was immediately shot down by the flying knife.
However, at the moment when the butterfly dart was shot down, a figure appeared like a ghost. In an instant, it was less than three feet away from Chen Yutian.
Chen Yutian frowned slightly, with a murderous look in his eyes. As he raised his right hand, the Nine Tribulations Cloud Dragon suddenly appeared. With a wave of his sword, a sword energy shot towards the figure quickly!
Swish, swish, swish!
Waves of sword energy, like a gust of wind and rain, burst towards the sudden figure, immediately blocking all the escape routes around it!
"No matter who you are, you should not intercept and kill me at this moment!"
While Chen Yutian was muttering in his mouth, the long sword in his hand suddenly stabbed forward. The unparalleled sword energy surged, carrying a fierce murderous aura, and struck straight at the head of the mysterious figure.
Seeing this, the mysterious figure had no choice but to attack and defend. The butterfly dart in his hand shot out, directly covering all the vital points of Chen Yutian's body!
Then, with both palms full of Haoyuan, he faced the opponent's simple sword thrust!
Ding……
When the palms and swords met, the sound was the sound of gold and iron. Chen Yutian felt that there seemed to be unparalleled power spitting out from the opponent's palm. For a moment, his body involuntarily retreated backwards!
The mysterious figure also felt uncomfortable. Although he blocked Chen Yutian's sword attack, the sword energy on the sword had already invaded his body at the moment of intersection. Now, the energy and blood in his body are surging endlessly, and he has suffered internal injuries. .
Realizing this, the mysterious figure no longer wanted to fight. After taking advantage of the situation, he took a few steps back and immediately said one word: "Retreat!"
Immediately, the person jumped onto the roof and disappeared after several leaps.
Chen Yutian stared at the place where it disappeared for a long time, and then he put away the Nine Tribulations Cloud Dragon. In his eyes, there was a complicated color of hesitation and doubt, and it disappeared in a flash!
"This person looks so mysterious and uses a butterfly dart as a weapon. He must be that person. But, why did he come to intercept and kill me?"
I pondered for a moment and had no clue!
Chen Yutian decided to stop thinking for the time being and go to Guanyi first to see what Xuan Xi's situation was like!
