Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 266
The masked man fell silent, he knew that Di Hentian was not exaggerating, that 'Ni Lin Xuan Wu' did have the ability to subvert the world.

What's more, he was burdened by the murder case, and there was no longer any place for him to hide.After weighing his own situation, the masked man nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Di Hentian stroked his chin and said approvingly: "He who understands the current affairs is a hero, there is no need to delay, we will set off immediately."

"Wait a minute." The masked man said: "Zuoshi, that place is too conspicuous, why don't you go there while it's dark."

Di Hentian thought for a while, and felt that it made some sense. After the fire last night, Mrs. Lichunfang and others had fled long ago. The yamen is now searching their whereabouts from house to house, and now it is impossible for anyone to find their whereabouts if they go out.

"If that's the case, then wait until it gets dark." Di Hentian swept away the depression in his chest before, and his mood became better. For him, as long as he can get the Tiger Talisman, all other things seem insignificant.

"As long as you get the Tiger Talisman, why worry about nothing happening?" Di Hentian squinted his eyes and thought about what to do next after getting the Tiger Talisman.

"Zuo Shi, this subordinate has one more thing to report." Seeing that Di Hentian was in a much better mood, the former spy hurriedly said.

"What else?"

"Return to Zuoshi, I passed by the yamen today, and found that the yamen was hung with plain white flowers. After careful questioning, I learned that Li Canghai, the county magistrate, died suddenly last night." The spy said.

"Oh? Seriously?" Di Hentian jumped up suddenly, grabbed the spy's shoulder and asked in surprise.

"This matter is what the county yamen said personally, there should be no falsehood, and tomorrow they will set up a coffin shed on the left side of the yamen for the people to pay homage to." The spy's shoulder was aching from being grabbed by Di Hentian, and he grinned in pain .

"I haven't heard any news about him before, so why did he suddenly die?" Di Hentian didn't seem to believe the news, and couldn't help being suspicious.

"Di Zuoshi, I have already said that the poison we use with one sword is the most powerful poison in the world. As I said, he will definitely die!" Miyauchi Ryosuke, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth and said triumphantly. .

Di Hentian gradually calmed down, his brows were tightly wrinkled, he walked a few steps, and muttered: "Li Canghai should have died two days ago, but the news of his death did not come out until today. I'm afraid something else is going wrong."

"Di Zuo envoy, are you doubting our ability to hit the knife?" Miyauchi Ryosuke asked bluntly, his face sinking like water.

"This envoy is not doubting your abilities, but Li Canghai." Di Hentian rubbed his chin and said in thought, "I always feel that Li Canghai's sudden death at this time is too sudden, I'm afraid he is playing some kind of conspiracy trick."

"Did Zuo Envoy worry too much?" Miyauchi Ryosuke raised his brows and said.

Di Hentian pondered for a while, then said solemnly: "I have to confirm this matter myself."

Di Hentian paced back and forth, even though he knew that Li Canghai was dead, he still had an inexplicable fear of Li Canghai in his heart.

In his eyes, Li Canghai is an out-and-out devil, able to see everything and predict the enemy's opportunities first.

Sometimes he himself finds it ridiculous, why should he be afraid of an unarmed weak scholar, but it is this scholar who makes him feel like a thorn in his back.

Miyauchi Ryosuke's eyes flicked back and forth on Di Hentian's body, and he didn't know what he was planning.He narrowed his eyes, and suddenly said: "Miss Di Zuo, I think what Lu Sang said is very reasonable. It is difficult for us alone to deal with the opponent's large force. The warriors of this faction will follow the master to carry out secret missions. If we can find more helpers, the chances of winning will be much higher for us, what does Zuoshi Di think?"

Di Hentian nodded and said: "Although that is the case, the situation is urgent now, how can we find many helpers in a hurry?"

Miyauchi Ryosuke smiled, looked at the man in the mask and said, "Could it be that Zuo Envoy forgot that Lu Sang once said that he knew the Japanese warriors from Sang Island?"

Di Hentian was stunned, but then his brows were tightly frowned: "The wanderers on Sang Island have always been unconvinced, I'm afraid they will cause trouble."

"Zuo Shi, don't we want troublemakers?" The corners of Miyauchi Ryosuke's lips turned up, and his eyes became dark.

Di Hentian thought about it, what Miyauchi Ryosuke said was right, if he wanted to assassinate An Lushan and Usumish, naturally the more chaos the better.

What's more, the ronin on Sang Island are notorious for their cruelty and arrogance, which is indeed a great help.

After thinking about it, Di Hentian pondered and said: "This is a good help, but Sang Island is far away on the coast of the East China Sea, so I'm afraid it will be too late."

"You don't have to worry about the Zuo envoy. Since Lu Sang has known them for a long time, there must be a way to get them to come here soon, right?" Miyauchi Ryosuke narrowed his eyes, looked at the masked man, and said very sincerely.

"This..." The masked man frowned, and after a moment of thought, he said, "If Zuo Shi really decides to cooperate with them, then I will give it a try."

"Well, then I'll leave this matter to you." Di Hentian nodded, all his thoughts were on Li Canghai's sudden death and the Tiger Talisman, but he didn't notice the sly gleam in Miyauchi Ryosuke's eyes .

As time passed bit by bit, Kang Xu woke up groggy, feeling as if his whole body was falling apart, and there were abnormal pains everywhere.

Especially the legs and back, as if the bones inside were broken by life, he sucked in a few breaths of air-conditioning in pain, and spit out bloody phlegm in pain when he coughed suddenly.

After struggling to get up, it took Kang Xu a long time to recover. He glanced around and found himself in a room.

The room is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, the surrounding furnishings are solemn and elegant, and there is a big word 'Tao' written on the wall behind it.

Kang Xu straightened up with difficulty, leaned his back against the wall, tried to make himself more comfortable, and tilted his head in a daze.

He remembered that he wanted to die with the fat short man, but his legs were hit by someone. After the short fat man took the opportunity to break free from his restraints, he kicked him firmly, kicking him directly into the ground The room that was engulfed in a sea of ​​flames hit the wall heavily.

After that, he who had fallen into a coma seemed to see a figure, rushed into the flames and carried him on his back.

But who saved him, he didn't know, and he had already passed out at that time.

He guessed and guessed, but he couldn't guess who the person who saved him was.

He risked his life to find Cui Huan, but he never told anyone, so how could someone come to his rescue in such a timely manner?

Although he didn't know who saved him, and he didn't know what the other party's purpose was, Kang Xu still felt lucky that he was not burned to death.

He first checked his injuries. Except for the injuries on his legs and the bruise on his back, the other injuries were not serious, except that half of his flowing long hair was burned off.
