Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 790 Yuan Family Secret Room
Li Canghai didn't expect the guy to be very considerate, picked up the hot jug, poured a glass of wine, and drank it with his head raised.

The scalding wine entered his abdomen, and it seemed to be on fire immediately, and the chill on his body was instantly dissipated, making him feel comfortable for a while.

At this time, it was already dead of night.

Li Cang drank warm wine by the sea, while thinking about the case, he suddenly became light-headed and fell asleep groggyly.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, when Li Canghai woke up in a daze, he found that the surrounding environment had changed.

The original inn has long since disappeared, and it was replaced by a dark room!
And he was tied up with hemp rope!

Li Canghai's heart turned pale with shock, and he shouted loudly, but when he opened his mouth, he realized that his mouth was already blocked!

"I've been kidnapped!" This was the first reaction in Li Canghai's mind.

But he didn't panic. Although his hands were tied with hemp rope, to Li Canghai who had learned the escape technique in his previous life, the hemp rope was nothing.

It took Li Canghai half a cup of tea to untie the hemp rope.

After removing the hemp rope tied around his body, Li Canghai stood up, moved his hands and feet, and then began to observe in the dark room.

The darkroom is about two feet long and wide, surrounded by bookshelves, and there are many books on the bookshelves.

The light in the dark room was dim, and the source of all the light turned out to be a fist-sized night pearl.

The night pearl was already covered with a lot of dust, Li Canghai took the night pearl in his hand and wiped it with his sleeve, the light of the night pearl became much brighter in an instant.

Holding the Ye Mingzhu, Li Canghai walked around the dark room.

It seems that no one has entered this dark room for a long time, so everything is covered with dust.

Li Canghai picked up a book, dusted it off, and found that it was actually a photo book.

After flipping through a few pages casually, Li Canghai felt that the content of this photo book was so profound and complicated that no one could understand it.

Li Canghai read a few more books in succession, and found that they were all books about the study of yin and yang spells.

These books are useless to ordinary people.

But for Confucianism and Taoism, it can almost be regarded as a priceless treasure, and there are still some ancient books in it.

"There are so many metaphysics books, is this the Yuan family?"

Seeing the room full of books, Li Canghai instantly thought of Yuan Tiangang, who is famous for his metaphysics.

The only one in Fufeng Town who is proficient in this way is the Yuan family who was exterminated.

"Strange, why did the murderer tie me to Yuan's house? What's his purpose?" Li Canghai put down the book in his hand and fell into deep thought.

By now, the truth has become very clear.

The real murderer is not Luo Fu, and Luo Fu did not commit suicide, the real murderer has been hidden in the dark.

But he couldn't figure out why the murderer tied him to Yuan's house, but didn't kill him.

At this moment, Li Canghai vaguely heard some conversations.

Li Canghai raised his ears, carefully discerned the direction of the sound, and walked towards the opposite wall.

Closer to the wall, the sound became clearer.

There were paintings and calligraphy hanging on this wall, Li Canghai reached out to take off the calligraphy and painting on the wall, and found a small circular hole.

Looking from the small hole, there seems to be a faint light outside, and the sound is coming from outside.

Li Canghai looked through the small hole and saw two figures standing outside the dark room.

One of them kept his back to the wall, while the other was facing Li Canghai.

Li Canghai saw that person from the small hole, and saw that person really, that person was none other than an old Taoist priest pretending to be Lu Dongbin.

Li Canghai was secretly taken aback, and quickly put his ear against the wall to listen.

The two talked through the wall, and Li Canghai couldn't hear clearly.

But he also listened intermittently.

The two talked about the end, broke up unhappy, and left separately.

After the two left, Li Canghai found the mechanism to open the dark room in the dark.

Turning on the mechanism, Li Canghai walked out from the dark room, only to find that he was indeed in the Yuan family's deserted house.

At this time, the sky is getting brighter.

After Li Canghai left the secret room, he hurried to the inn.

As soon as she got back to the inn, she saw Di Qing anxious and wanted to go find him.

Seeing him coming back, Di Qing immediately went up to meet him, and asked eagerly, "Cang Hai, where have you been all night? I thought something happened to you!"

Li Canghai patted Di Qing on the head, smiled gently and said, "I was invited to a play."

"Watching a play? Where can I watch a show in the middle of the night?" Di Qing asked puzzled.

Li Canghai smiled slightly, and said to fellow Lu Ji: "Brother Lu, please go and inform everyone. Go to the ancestral hall and say that I have something important to announce."

After Lu Jitong nodded, he left the inn.

"Cang Hai, what do you have to announce?" Seeing his solemn expression, Di Qing was even more puzzled.

"You will know later." Li Canghai smiled lightly, and then led everyone to the ancestral hall.

Soon, all the respectable people in the town came to the ancestral hall.

Liu Yang, the mayor of the town, asked puzzledly: "Mr. Li, why did you call me here?"

Li Canghai cleared his throat, and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I called you here is mainly to point out to you the murderers of these murders."

Everyone looked at each other for a while, Liu Yang stroked his beard, frowned and said, "Mr. Li, isn't Luo Fu the murderer? Besides, he committed suicide in fear of crime?"

Li Canghai narrowed his eyes, and said deeply: "Luo Fu is a murderer, and he is not a murderer. It can even be said that the people who have died recently are all murderers."

Li Canghai's words made everyone confused.

Di Qing stroked her hair, and said puzzledly: "Cang Hai, what do you mean by that? Why do you say that the dead are all murderers? They are already dead, how can they kill people?"

"Don't worry, Qinger, let me tell you one by one. In fact, the relationship in this case is so intricate that it can even be said to be unbelievable. If the murderer hadn't told me the truth, I don't think I would have guessed the key point." Li Canghai said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone became even more puzzled.

Di Qing walked up to Li Canghai, touched his forehead with her hand, frowned and said, "Canghai, you are not sick, why are you talking nonsense? How could the murderer tell you the truth?"

Li Canghai smiled lightly and said, "Although it's unbelievable, it's true."

"Sir, what's going on here?" Li Yu couldn't help but ask curiously, almost scratching his head.

"Actually, the murders that happened recently are inextricably linked to the case of the Yuan family's extermination." Li Canghai said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back: "The lantern Chen fell off the cliff, Qian Lin's throat was cut tragically, and Xia Zhi was killed alive." Stoned to death, and Luo Fu committed suicide in fear of crime. All these seem to be unrelated, but when I found the bones of the Yuan family, I thought of the connection."
