Dark Fairy

Chapter 48
Zhou Dong didn't hesitate or didn't dare to accept it.He brought Bailang out and recommended him, and he regarded him as one of his own.Now that one of his own is in trouble, there is no reason for him not to help and give advice.

After thinking about it at home, Zhou Dong and Bai Lang left the city again. In the cold night, they hurried to the woods on the outskirts of Dongcheng and found the bodies of Li Jiang and Li Jiang.In the cold winter night, the corpse did not attract any wild beasts for the time being. After all, the woods were close to the city, and wild beasts rarely came.

Zhou Dong walked around the corpse carefully, and then jumped up to the big tree next to him, to see where Li Jiang and Li Jiang might have landed, and where Bai Lang said he practiced his saber in the past.I became more and more sure of my guess.

"Brother Dong, please speak up. What exactly are Li and Jiang planning to do to me? They are dead now, and I discovered their bodies. Will this matter be blamed on me then?"

It is true that Bailang was pretending, but he was really flustered in his heart.It's just that he was worried that Zhou Dong would not be able to follow his plan and give the direction.

But soon Bailang's heart fell back.Zhou Dong didn't come up with any "wonderful ideas". Based on all the reasonable reasoning based on the information he has now, he came to the conclusion that Bailang was used as a scapegoat.

"How should I say it? Say you're lucky, kid. You were almost used as a scapegoat to get away. Say you were unlucky. You were able to survive at the critical moment. The key is that you are still ignorant. As the saying goes "Luck by your side" is probably referring to a person like you!"

"Brother Dong! Just don't be a fool, can you?"

"Haha, okay, I'll just tell you."

After a pause, Zhou Dong said solemnly: "You should know that last month in Yongchuan City, the blood guards of the state capital led by Li Jiang turned upside down, looking for people and things, but they never knew about our knife shop and didn't say anything about it." They are looking for someone to check something. Until now, these blood guards have not left, but more people have come in, but due to the pressure of the city lord's mansion, they did not continue to make a big show, but went to the dark place to continue track down.

I heard that the two deputy commanders of the Blood Guard came later, and their positions were above Li Jiang's.Can you see what this means to Li Jiang? "

After thinking about it for a while, Bailang said, "It means that Li Jiang is not doing his job well and is not welcome by the state government, so he sent two deputy commanders to take over?"

"That's right. And it's said that the blood guards have strict internal rules, and if they fail to do things well, they will be severely punished. So, if you were Li Jiang and his deputy chief, what would you do?"

"I will find a way to excuse myself? Hey. Brother Dong, you mean that because of a coincidence, I practiced knives in this small forest that day, so Li Jiang and the others used them as a scapegoat to get rid of their crimes?!"

"Yes, that's what I thought. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to explain why the two big men of the blood guards of the state capital ran into the woods to stare at you at night. I guess they wanted to find out your every move, and then Find an excuse to take you in the direction they want. These Blood Guards aren't going to be soft-hearted.

But how did those guys keep their eyes on them?To actually give up the usual fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl and change to a third-rank warrior like Li Jiang?This change is too big, right?Or was someone deliberately planting the blame to confuse the public? "

In the next few sentences, Zhou Dong didn't look at Bailang talking, but squatted beside the two corpses, looking like he was thinking.

But Bai Lang, who was standing behind Zhou Dong, was secretly startled.

Sure enough, the female ghost Lingyu's framing was not considered clever.A quick-witted person like Zhou Dong could see the problem at a glance.But this is not troublesome for Bailang.Because he really did not participate in the death of the two of Li Jiang, and he was not qualified at all.No matter how suspicious a person is, it is impossible to put the identity of the murderer who killed Li Jiang and two people on a person like him who has only a mere eighth-rank strength.

"Brother Dong, what do you think of this matter?"

"You stay here, I'll go to Master Liu, we can't directly stab this matter, we have to let the knife shop fully prepare before we talk about it. Remember, don't move this corpse around, so as not to cause trouble."

"Brother Dong, I understand, don't worry!"

Zhou Dong patted Bailang's shoulder, then turned around and ran away without saying a word.

Bailang walked away a few steps, found a piece of dry grass and sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and let go of his spiritual sense. At the same time, he calmly sorted out every detail of this matter and what he would need to do later. response.

It was almost half an hour after Zhou Dong left, and there were hurried footsteps and Zhou Dong's guiding voice outside the grove.Bailang knew he was here.And it sounded like a lot of people came, with many and mixed footsteps.

Not long after hearing the voice, Zhou Dong appeared in front of Bailang immediately, and there were no less than ten people following behind Zhou Dong.They included Liu Xu, who Zhou Dong had clearly said before leaving to seek help, and a man who looked about the same age as Liu Xu, but with white hair and a scar on his face that stretched from the center of his eyebrows down to his right cheek.

The sword in the knife hall, Tang Yan!
Tang Yan actually came in person! ?
Bailang was horrified and rushed forward to meet him.Bowing and saluting, he said: "Bai Lang, the new waist knife, see Tang Zuo knife, Hall Master Liu!"

Tang Yan glanced at Bailang expressionlessly, then turned his head and walked to the two corpses of Li Jiang without saying a word for a long time, his eyes were as sharp as knives and plowed carefully around the corpses.

Liu Xu, on the other hand, waved his hand towards Bai Lang and said, "Okay, just wait by the side. I'll ask you something later."

Bai Lang should have stepped aside and cast a questioning look at Zhou Dong, who also signaled "Reassurance", also not daring to say anything, stepped aside and stood there.

At this time, the body with a radius of more than ten feet in the center was covered by several waist knives and red knives from the knife studio who came with Tang Yan and Liu Xu. Every tree and grass was carefully searched.

The movements of those people were very fast, and they regrouped within a short time, and the scene was not damaged by their search, and there was almost no change.It can be seen that these people should be full-time masters in the knife shop.

"Zao Dao, the ones who died were indeed Li Jiang, the first guard of the state capital, and his deputy Chen Ming. The two bodies were mutilated, and they seemed to have been bitten, almost the same as nearly ten similar murders in the city recently.

But there are also doubts.

First, Li Jiang and Li Jiang had no trace of resistance, which belonged to instant killing.It doesn't match their strength, and it's different from the rest of the similar homicides.

Secondly, although the bite marks on the bodies of Li Jiang and Li Jiang were obvious, the blood spatter and the amount of blood around them were wrong. They were not torn into pieces while alive, but should have been torn into pieces like this after death.This is also different from other similar murders.

In the end, we found no trace of the suspected murderer nearby.No footprints or anything, not even a smell. "

After listening to his subordinates' summary, Tang Yan was noncommittal, turned around and looked at Bailang who was standing obediently beside him.
