In order to track down who controlled the group of snakes to attack Tian Yu, Ling Fan and his party followed the traces of the group of snakes escaping and came to a forest. However, they were suddenly attacked by a strange black shadow. Ling Fan almost died. Fortunately, Tian Yu
With quick eyesight and quick hands, he subdued the two black shadows in an instant, but found that the black shadows were not animals, but two tree vines. Gu Rufeng even told Ling Fan that they might have encountered a tree monster in the woods.
——The tree demon attacked, and at this moment, Tian Yu noticed a black shadow that looked like a humanoid flashing away.
"What is that thing? Is it a tree demon?!" Ling Fan stared at the direction where the black shadow disappeared and bumped into Gu Rufeng and asked.
Gu Rufeng shook his head and said: "How do I know? It may or may not be the case, but the possibility is extremely high."
But Tianyu couldn't help but feel that, the ancient supernatural knowledge was of no use to her. She squatted down and stared at the ground, and said coldly: "Do tree demons leave footprints?"
Ling Fan heard the sound and ran to Tian Yu's side. Sure enough, there were clear footprints on the ground. Judging from the size of the footprints, it was estimated that they should be the footprints of an adult man, and not like the traces of a tree monster or something like that.
.
Everyone was confused by these human footprints for a while. How could human footprints suddenly appear? Didn't they just say that tree demons attacked them? How could a person suddenly appear? And if this black shadow is a human, then he appeared.
What was the reason for being here? If he had nothing to do with the vines that suddenly attacked them, why did he run away?
"Let's go! Chase him!" As long as he was a human, Ling Fan felt that there was nothing to be afraid of, so he got up and chased after him, "I want to see who he is."
"Boy Ling, wait for me, wait for my old man!" Gu Rufeng saw Ling Fan leaving immediately and quickly chased after him.
Tian Yu's beautiful eyes showed soft color, she put away the dagger, and then followed closely.
Although the forest floor is covered with withered leaves, you can still clearly see the traces of footprints.
The three of them continued to follow the footprints on the dead leaves, but after walking for a certain distance, the footprints suddenly disappeared, and what appeared in front of them was a high wall.
"What's going on? Where are the footprints? Why are they gone? Did they disappear out of thin air?" Gu Rufeng opened his eyes wide and looked at the footprints that suddenly disappeared on the ground and shouted.
Ling Fan looked up at the wall, thought for a moment, and said, "I think that person may have climbed over the wall. What is behind this wall?"
"It's the Zheng family's mansion." Tian Yu replied.
"Ah? The Zheng family mansion!" Ling Fan looked at Tian Yu with wide eyes.
As soon as Ling Fan finished speaking, he heard Gu Ru's laughter as loud as the sand and the wind——Hahaha!
Ling Fan and Tian Yu looked at Gu Rufeng, who was laughing endlessly, with confusion. They both frowned and asked, "Old Gu, what are you laughing at? What's so funny?"
Liangyi, Gu Rufeng stopped laughing. He raised a finger and waved it in front of Ling Fan and said with a smile: "I understand, haha, I understand everything."
"What do you understand?" Ling Fan was confused by Gu Rufeng's words.
"Hey, boy Ling, can't you see that the murderer is someone from the Zheng family's mansion, who controlled a group of snakes to attack Tian Yu, and then controlled a tree vine to attack us. In the end, we found out that the person who escaped over the wall was actually Zheng
People from the Zheng family's mansion, and judging from the footprints, we know that the murderer is a man. Think about it, how many men are there in the Zheng family's mansion, and who can get the greatest benefit after killing Zheng Jiashu and Zheng Jiaya?" Gu Rufeng
At this time, he walked around Tian Yu and Ling Fan twice, pretending to be a famous detective, and asked with a smile.
Of course, Ling Fan didn't need to think carefully to know that the person Gu Rufeng was referring to was the second young master of the Zheng family, Zheng Jiaming. The fourth son of the Zheng family, the eldest brother Zheng Jiashu and the second sister Zheng Jiaya had passed away. Now only Zheng Jiaming and Zheng Jiayi are left.
Since Zheng Jiayi is still young and still in school, the biggest beneficiary of the future property ownership of the Zheng family will be Zheng Jiaming.
"But is it really that simple?" Gu Rufeng's inference was impeccable in terms of motives and characters, but Ling Fan always felt that things would never be as simple as Lao Gu said, "That Zheng Jiaming doesn't look like that.
Doesn’t he look like a murderer?”
Seeing that Ling Fan disagreed with his inference, Gu Rufeng patted Ling Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Boss Ling, didn't you say that? What the eyes see may not be the truth. The second son of the Zheng family
Wouldn't it be clear if we cross-examine him as to whether he is the murderer? If the black figure just now is really him, then he will definitely not be able to provide an alibi, right?"
Ling Fan stared at Gu Rufeng with extremely surprised eyes, then walked around him, slowly shook his head, and said in a disbelieving tone: "Oh, that's good, Lao Gu, you have learned to reason, too.
Hehe, after three days of separation, you are so impressed!"
Gu Rufeng raised his head proudly and said with a smile: "That's right, my master is naturally wise, martial, wise and brave, and I know these little tricks at a glance, haha————!"
"Come on, I can't praise you enough. Haha, without further ado, let's go to the Zheng family to visit the second young master of the Zheng family." Ling Fan clenched his fist and punched Gu Rufeng's chest.
After a while, he pulled Gu Rufeng back.
"Hey, Tian Yu, why don't you leave?" Ling Fan and Gu Rufeng walked back more than ten steps. Seeing that Tian Yu didn't follow them, they couldn't help but turned around and asked curiously.
Tianyu still stood there, just snorted coldly, then bent his body slightly, and then bounced up instantly like a stretched spring, leaping more than two meters high, with two slender hands.
All of a sudden, he held the edge of the wall tightly, and then squatted on the wall with both feet, and his whole body flew up. Then Hou Tianyu squatted on the wall, his face was not red, and Xianglan was not panting.
Ling Fan and Gu Rufeng stood there in a daze as if watching a stunt movie, and it took several minutes to recover.
"Damn, girl Tian Yu is so awesome. This wall is nearly three meters high at least. She climbed up so easily. She is really a god!" Gu Rufeng extended his thumb towards Tian Yu,
Praise.
"Stop talking nonsense, come on, you jump, I will catch you!" Tian Yu was still calm and calm, then stretched out his hand and said to Ling Fan.
Ling Fan couldn't help but swallowed secretly. Good guy, this wall is more than three meters high at least. He can usually jump up to half a meter high. Although Tian Yu reached out to pick him up at this time, he still had to jump more than one meter.
Gao Caixing is over one meter tall. Only professional basketball players can achieve that.
But looking at Tian Yu's outstretched hand, Ling Fan was too embarrassed to say that he couldn't do it, so he had no choice but to step forward. He looked up at the wall and felt dizzy.
Tian Yu cast an encouraging look at him.
"Boy Ling, come on!" Gu Rufeng cheered and cheered from the side.
"Just die!" Ling Fan suddenly gritted his teeth, then squatted down, jumped up, and tried his best to hold Tian Yu's jade hand.
However, the reality was too cruel. According to Gu Rufeng's description at the time, the distance between their hands was more than one meter away, which was really tragic.
Ling Fan tried several times, but still couldn't shorten the fatal distance. In the end, there was really no other way. Gu Rufeng couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked Ling Fan to step on his shoulders, and Ling Fan's hand was lifted by the sky.
Yu grabbed hold of him, and then pulled him down. Finally, the two of them managed to pull Gu Rufeng up. Of course, Lao Gu's performance was not much better than Ling Fan's. Fortunately, Ling Fan suggested using tree vines to pull Lao Gu up.
In this way, the three of them successfully climbed over the wall.
When the next step was to jump down, Tian Yu was extremely relaxed, but Ling Fan and Lao Gu frowned tightly. As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. This is from the top of the three-meter-high wall.
Jumping down is also quite scary. Ling Fan didn't have the guts to jump directly from the wall. Instead, he clung to the edge of the wall with both hands and his body hung down. In this way, the actual distance between his feet and the ground was only one meter, excluding his height.
No matter how high it is, you can't fall to death at this height.
Anyway, the last three people finally arrived at the Zheng family's mansion safely, but it seemed that they came to the backyard. It seemed that no one usually came to the backyard, although it seemed a bit messy, and because of the messy woods, the footprints became
It's blurry and can't be found.
Just when Ling Fan and the others had just entered the backyard of Zheng's house, there was a sudden loud barking, and then they saw an elderly male servant running towards them with two black wolf dogs, and yelling loudly.
: "Who are you?! Why do you want to climb into other people's walls?"
"Lao Gu, hurry up, you can handle this!" Ling Fan quickly came to Gu Rufeng's side and said.
The corner of Gu Rufeng's mouth twitched, and he glared at Ling Fan fiercely, saying: "I know that you, Mr. Ling, have no good intentions. If something like this happens, I will let your brother Gu do it!" Although Lao Gu said so.
Ling Fan, but he still faced the maid holding the dog with a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's me, not a bad person."
When the male servant running with the dog saw Gu Rufeng, he immediately recognized it, then scolded the two wolf dogs not to bark, looked up at Gu Rufeng, and said with a smile: "Taoist priest, why are you here?
How could you climb over the wall and get in?"
Gu Rufeng rolled his eyes and said: "This matter is complicated, and I can't explain it to you. Anyway, I'm just tracking the evil spirit. By the way, is the second young master of the Zheng family at home now?"
"Here, Master Jia Ming and Miss Jia Yi are accompanying the old lady. What is the reason for this?" the male servant asked while answering Gu Rufeng's question.
Gu Rufeng no longer paid attention to the maid but turned around to look at Ling Fan and Tian Yu, patted his chest and said with a smile: "Boy Ling, girl Tian Yu, just watch and see if Master Gu has made a real evil spirit now."
