Everything Began to Rise from the Bright Moon in the Qin Dynasty

"Ghost judge? You mean the ghost judge who traveled around the world, tried all kinds of criminals wearing a mask, and was also extremely skilled in martial arts?"

"Nonsense, is there anyone in the Seven Kingdoms who can be called a ghost judge?"

"I heard that he seemed to be in the country of Yan before."

"Then who knows, what happened to him in Yan State was already two months ago, maybe he has already come and left the country."

And these words fell into Xu Fan's ears exactly. He didn't expect that his name would be so big. He also stayed in Chu State for a while before, but not for long.

But I didn't expect that in this small Pei County, there were people who knew him.

But thinking about it, in this era without televisions as predictions, some stories about strangers in the arena have become gossip news during the after-dinner refreshments. impossible.

Xu Fan was not interested in the murder case in Peixian County at first, but thinking that he did have some free time recently, he also planned to go and see what was going on. What about the task?

Thinking of this, the movements of Xu Fan's mouth also slowly sped up, and after a while, he ate a lot, and then he checked out and left.

After a while, Xu Fan came to the scene of the murder in Pei County, Qiao's Mansion.

When Xu Fan arrived, there were officers and soldiers outside Qiao's mansion, and there were also many martial arts men with swords in the mansion. It seemed that they were also here to investigate the case.

As soon as Xu Fan walked to the door, he was stopped.

"Sir, this is the scene of a murder case, no one else is allowed to enter..."

"That's just right, I'm here to investigate the case." Xu Fan smiled slightly.

He was dressed in a long robe with black beams on the back of his head. With his sharp facial features and an unusual demeanor, he looked quite lively, and no one dared to ignore him.

When the two heard the words, they didn't say anything earlier, and let Xu Fan in directly.

Xu Fan's attire looks like a scholar, and a scholar means that Xu Fan's military strength will not be much worse.

Unlike the scholars of later generations who had no power to restrain chickens, most of the scholars in the pre-Qin period were both civil and military. They looked soft and weak, but their martial arts were not bad.

Walking into the courtyard, Xu Fan immediately saw a hellish scene.

Fragmented corpses can be seen everywhere in the courtyard.

Because of the need for investigation, the corpses here have not been disposed of. Two or three days have passed, and some corpses have begun to emit a rancid smell, and the entire small courtyard is filled with the stench of corpses.

When Xu Fan walked into the courtyard, there was already a group of people investigating around the courtyard. Judging by their attire, they should be righteous heroes who came to investigate this case.

"Brother Zhou, who do you think will be responsible for this case?"

When Xu Fan was surveying the scene in the courtyard, a voice suddenly came to Xu Fan's ears, and Xu Fan heard it and looked.

Then I saw a group of five people discussing quietly together.

Four of them were men and one was a woman.

The woman looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in a blue shirt, with neat features and a graceful figure, she could be considered a pretty woman.

And those four men, two young men, looked to be in their twenties, one was wearing a gray robe, the other was wearing a black jacket, and there was a short dagger at his waist.

As for the other two, one is a middle-aged man in his thirties, with an indifferent expression and firm eyes. There is a scar on the left side of his face, which makes his handsome face suddenly appear more. There is a bit of a sturdy breath, which makes people dare not underestimate it.

The last man was an old man in his fifties, with a hunched back and a blindfold on his left eye. He seemed to be blind.

There is a machete pinned to his waist, which doesn't look like a weapon from the Central Plains.

And the five of them are standing together at the moment, discussing the case, judging from their appearance, they should be a group of people.

And the one who spoke just now was the man in the black suit.

The one called Brother Zhou was the man in the gray robe.

The gray-robed man pondered for a moment, and said, "From the scene, the weapon of the assailant should be a sword, and his sword is so fast that he can cut more than ten swords in an instant, but it looks like a single sword. That's why all the corpses in the house are broken."

Chapter 157; Investigating a homicide.

"In the rivers and lakes, there are many people who are powerful with swords, but there are not many who can cut ten swords in an instant."

"The emperor-level assassins in Luowang of Qin State all have this ability, but each of them is a sharp weapon for killing people. The leader of Luowang will not use them to steal money foolishly, because it is too wasteful, Sha Jiyan Use a butcher's knife."

"So the killer of the net can be ruled out."

"There is another point, that is, the person who made the move should have enmity with the Qiao Mansion."

"A master who kills and plunders money, if he just wants to grab money, he can't kill everyone in his belly, not even chickens and dogs. Therefore, the murderer must have a grudge with Qiao's mansion."

"The Qiao Mansion is a big family in the Chu State, and the master of the Qiao Mansion, Mr. Qiao, is the father-in-law of the Marquis of Xiping. He has almost never been out of the Chu State. The possibility that he was killed by a master swordsman from another country can be ruled out immediately."

"Then what if it's buying a murderer to kill? I heard that Mr. Qiao cooperated with the Qianlong Hall in Yan Kingdom. However, half a year ago, Mr. Qiao wanted to put an item in the Qianlong Hall for auction, but in the end But he came back again, tell me, is it possible that he offended Qianlongtang and got revenge because of it?." The man in the black suit said.

"General people in Qianlongtang don't know about it, but I know very well that the power behind him is the peasant family, and the power of the peasant family spreads all over the seven countries. Even in my country of Chu, there are his peasant families at the helm. Impossible." The middle-aged man with a scar on his face said.

Hearing the words, the gray-robed youth burst out laughing. "Qianlongtang is indeed a powerful farmer, but it is impossible for Qianlongtang to kill Mr. Qiao. It's not that they don't have the ability, but they don't bother to kill him."

"What kind of power is his family, an old businessman, so what if his son-in-law is a Marquis of Chu? If his family really kills Duke Qiao, they can't bear the ridicule."

"Do you think it is possible to kill a small businessman and a first-class force in the world?"

Hearing Zhou Gongming's words, everyone nodded unconsciously.

In ancient times, the most despised people were those merchants, that is, businessmen. No matter how rich you are, in the eyes of many people, you are just a person full of money, and you will not be looked down upon. .

If the Duke Qiao they talked about wasn't because of some sons-in-law of the Marquis, the county magistrate wouldn't care about this matter at all.
