Chapter 42 Locking the Murderer
"Huangfukun! Your son is dead, what does it matter to me? Let my son out quickly, otherwise when the prince returns, don't blame me for not caring about feelings!"

Those people didn't seem to care about Huangfu Kun's ruthless words, after all, he still had the final say on Luoyang City.

Huangfu Kun sneered, smashed the seat with his palm, jumped up and shouted: "When the lord comes back, I will plead guilty to the lord, whether to kill or punish him is up to the lord. But now, this general is in charge!"

Huangfu Kun said the following paragraph very seriously, his cold eyes swept over everyone, like a leopard going mad, making everyone shudder.

Everyone was stunned by Huangfu Kun for a moment, and after a long while, someone mustered up the courage to shout: "General Huangfu, we understand your feelings, but you have to give a time limit, it's possible that the murderer won't come out, you have to keep going." Is it impossible to imprison these Confucian scholars?"

Huangfu Kun also knew that he couldn't detain these young masters for long, and it wouldn't do him any good if things got too big.

While thinking about it, he suddenly saw Li Canghai.

Pointing at Li Canghai, Huangfu Kun cleared his throat and said, "This man is an official from the Luoyang government, and he is good at solving cases. He once said that he will find the murderer within a day. So you don't have to worry, as long as he investigates and deals with the real murderer, this general will automatically let go."

All eyes immediately turned to Li Canghai. Hearing this, Li Canghai almost jumped up and cursed.

This Huangfu Kun is really shameless, it is clear that he is forcing himself to solve the case within a day, how could it be what he said?

With a few simple words, he successfully directed the spearhead to him. Li Canghai couldn't help thinking in his heart that Huangfu Kun was definitely not as reckless as he appeared on the surface.

"Boy, have you found out the murderer?" Huangfu Kun asked in a loud voice in front of everyone.

Li Canghai shrugged, spread his hands, showing a helpless expression.

"The murderer has not been found, why don't you go and investigate!" Huangfu Kun's face suddenly became very gloomy, and he shouted with wide eyes.

Li Canghai yawned lazily, rolled his eyes, and said calmly, "I'm sleepy."

"Hmph, the general asked you to investigate the case, not to sleep! Hurry up and find the murderer!" Huangfu Kun snorted coldly.

"If the general thinks that I can't find the murderer, I can hire someone else." Li Canghai yawned and came to a pillar, sat down against the pillar, and said with an extremely lazy expression.

He could see that although Huangfu Kun had a bad temper, he also had a lot of scheming.So many dignitaries looking for someone to ask for someone, even if he is the leader of the Luoyang garrison, he can't handle it.

What's more, Li Canghai has always been the kind of person who doesn't take hard and soft, and acts according to his mood.

Now he is in a very bad mood, even very bad.

Because he was really sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Huangfu Kun was still talking angrily, but Li Canghai couldn't hold on any longer, he nodded his head slightly, and soon fell asleep.

When he woke up, Li Canghai felt dizzy.

Shaking his head vigorously, he looked at the dazzling light, and immediately jumped up as if sitting on pins and needles.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the time was calculated, and there were only less than two hours left before the time limit of the day.

"Amitabha, Donor Li, you are finally awake."

A Buddha's name sounded next to his ear, Li Canghai froze in a daze, turned around and found Huiguang standing in front of him with his palms folded.

"Master, why are you here?" Li Canghai was a little stunned.

"Benefactor Li, did you forget that you sent the little monk to come for the autopsy last night?" Hui Guang looked at him in surprise and said.

Li Canghai rubbed the space between his brows, his mind went blank, and after a while, he remembered that he had said that.

"I have a headache today, and my reaction was a little slow. I hope Master will not blame you." Li Canghai bowed slightly apologetically, and asked, "I wonder what the result of the autopsy is, Master?"

Hui Guang pondered and said: "The little monk and the fifth benefactor have inspected the corpse twice in a row, and the little monk can confirm that the deceased died of the 'Xuanbing Gu worm'."

"Ok?"

Li Canghai frowned. He rubbed the center of his brows, feeling as if his brain was full of paste.

"The deceased died of being devoured by the 'Xuan Ice Gu worm'. The monk guessed that the 'Xuan Ice Gu worm' should have been lurking in the body of the deceased for a long time, until he suddenly woke up from a deep sleep under certain circumstances. The life of the deceased." Huiguang saw that he hadn't recovered, so he explained.

"Could it be the 'melting fire Gu' that can wake up the silent 'Xuan Ice Gu'?" Li Canghai blurted out, remembering the conversation with Huiguang last night.

Hui Guang nodded in disbelief, but then he frowned a bit: "The little monk thinks so too, but the strange thing is that the little monk searched the corpses and didn't find the 'melting fire Gu worm'."

"Master, how far must the two Gu worms be to sense each other?" Li Canghai asked with a headache.

Huiguang pondered for a moment, then said: "If the two kinds of Gu worms are both asleep, it should be within ten feet. However, if one of the Gu worms is awake, the range will be extended by tens of feet."

Having said this, Huiguang and Li Canghai glanced at each other, and a light of sudden enlightenment flashed in their eyes at the same time.

Without saying a word, Li Canghai rushed out the door immediately.

When Huangfu Kun saw this, he thought he was going to run away, and then he was furious, and chased after him with a few guards.

Luoyang Yang Mansion, Yang Su was about to leave in a chariot, but was stopped by Li Canghai who arrived in time.

A moment later, Huangfu Kun rushed over with his guards, and shouted from a long distance: "Boy, stop!"

Yang Su was taken aback by Huangfu Kun's yelling, and thought he was yelling at him, his face turned cold, and he immediately called his family Ding Huyuan to stop him.

When Huangfu Kun saw someone stop him, he was furious immediately, and he raised his fist to beat those guards.

At this time, Liang Xiu also came with a group of yamen servants. Seeing that the two sides were fighting, he hurriedly brought people forward to dissuade them.

For a while, the scene became chaotic, with cries of pain and curses.

Li Canghai turned a deaf ear to the chaos, he stared at Yang Su and said, "Young Master Yang, where are you going?"

"Where is my son going to tell you?" Yang Su raised his eyebrows and said dismissively.

Li Canghai looked serious, and said seriously: "Young Master Yang, I have found out the truth about Huangfuwei's murder, and you are the murderer!"

"What?" Yang Su's voice suddenly rose a lot when he heard this, and he shouted: "You fart! How can I be a murderer?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the scuffle stopped.

Angrily, Huangfu Kun beat up several guards on the ground, rushed over, grabbed Yang Su by the collar, and said angrily: "Okay, I already knew that the murderer was you!"

Yang Su was stunned by Huangfu Kun's ferocious expression, he struggled helplessly, and hurriedly shouted: "Let go of me, I'm not a murderer!"

Huangfu Kun didn't care much about him, he just threw him on the ground, and several guards stepped forward and quickly tied him up.
