Only the guards knew why Todayama left the palace. The Imperial Master Hu Li sent his confidant Todayama out of the palace to search for that Chaos Beast. He knew that the clues were gone here, and now even the general was missing.
The guard looked up at the hole in the roof and said, "Bring the ladder, I'll go up and look at the roof."
The ladder was quickly set up, and the guard climbed up to the roof and saw the account book that had fallen on the roof.
The guard picked up the account book and flipped through a few pages, and his face suddenly changed color. He pondered for a moment, put the account book in his arms, walked down the ladder, and said: "There is nothing found above."
The Master of the Slaughter Altar said with a mournful face: "It's really strange, how could it be missing?"
"Yeah, it's really strange..." The guard slowly walked to the altar master, suddenly grabbed his throat, and said: "Don't move!"
The butcher altar master never expected that Yin Jiu would make a sudden move. He was caught off guard and was restrained by the guards. He asked in surprise: "Guard Li, what are you doing?"
Several personal bodyguards from Zhanhutang tried to rush forward, but the altar owner was held by the throat, and did not dare to move.
The guard said to the slaughter altar master: "Let all your guards get out!"
"Everyone get out!" The slaughter altar master said to the guards.
Several guards had no choice but to exit the house.
The captain of the Nine Gates was stunned by the sudden scene and asked hurriedly: "Guard Li, what's wrong?"
The guard ordered people to guard the door, and then pointed a finger at the butcher's waist. The butcher suddenly collapsed on the ground. The guard asked someone to get an iron lock and lock the butcher. Then he took out the account book from his arms and handed it to Jiu.
The captain of the gate said: "Sir, please take a look."
Captain Nine Gates took the account book and looked through it, his face suddenly changed color, and he threw the account book in front of the Tu Tan Master: "What is this?"
The butcher altar master looked at the account book and saw that it was the record of their robbery of officials!
After the Master of Tutan had to live in this small courtyard in Toda Mountain, he had already thought of the worst outcome and thought of a way to deal with it. He looked surprised and said: "What kind of book is this? I don't know.
ah."
Captain Jiumen picked it up, opened it, and said: "This is the record of your Zhanhutang robbing officials!"
The butcher was shocked and said in a trembling voice: "Impossible! What we are doing is serious business. You know this great master, how can you do such a thing to seek wealth and harm people's lives?"
"Then what's going on with this ledger?"
"Someone must have framed me!"
The guard picked up the article written on the table and took a look at it, then compared it with the handwriting on the account, and sneered: "The words on this account are obviously your brother's handwriting. Will your brother frame you?"
"What?" The butcher was shocked. "Let me see!"
The guard sent the article and accounts to the master of the slaughter altar. When the master of the slaughter altar saw it, he was immediately shocked and roared, "It is indeed the work of this beast! Could it be that this beast did it without telling me?"
Something?"
"Hiding it from you?" The guard was stunned, "You are the altar master. How could I hide it from you?"
"We have a big community, and it is inevitable that some bad people will sneak in and instigate my brother to do bad things without telling me. I really don't know what is going on with this account book. I will find out if I call my brother here and ask. I can confront him.
!”
"Okay!" Captain Jiumen walked to the door, called the policemen he had brought outside the door, and ordered them to arrest Tu Sha.
The guards ordered their own people to go with them to prevent Tu Sha from resisting arrest. At the same time, they also prevented the Nine Gate Captain's people from tipping off Tu Sha to escape.
Guard Li asked Master Tutan: "Did you instigate someone to arrest our general?"
"How is this possible?" Master Tutan asked, "What am I doing to capture the general? Besides, you guys are all masters in the world, and you are just standing guard in the yard. How could my people capture the general and Yamaguchi silently?"
Miss Momoe is captured? And Miss Yamaguchi Momoe’s martial arts is so high, it’s simply impossible.”
"You can use incense or something."
"I don't, Guard Li. I am an honest businessman, and my Zhanhutang is also an honest businessman. Captain Jiumen knows this best. I donate tens of thousands of taels of silver to the Yamen every year.
To help the poor people, I often help those in need and help those in need. I am generous and give away wealth. Everyone knows about the treasures and elephants. Am I right? Master."
"That's true." Captain Jiumen nodded. He looked a little embarrassed. He felt the feeling of being short-handed and said, "You really don't know what's going on in the accounts?"
"I really don't know, sir. If you don't believe me, just call my brother and ask. You can also investigate in my Zhanhu Hall to find out who did these things and find them one by one.
Ask, if I find out who did it and he confesses that I ordered him, I have nothing to say and I will just let him be dealt with!"
Captain Nine Gates said: "I will find out! It's best not to be you, otherwise..."
At this moment, the guard suddenly waved his hand and hissed, making the captain of the Nine Gates silence and listen. After a moment, he walked to the green brick that had been lifted up, knelt down, and pressed his face against the brick.
He showed a puzzled expression and said: "There is a sound down there! It seems like something hit the stone slab!"
It turned out that Todayama and Yamaguchi Momoe were in the cellar. They kept pushing the flap hard, and finally pushed the flap open to a gap as big as a thumb, and inserted a hard bone to jam it. Then, Yamaguchi Momoe
Hui used the skeleton's finger bones as a hidden weapon and shot them out, hitting the top flap.
The flap was very thick and the sound of the impact was very soft, but Guard Li happened to be standing next to it. He had great martial arts skills and excellent hearing, so he heard it.
Captain Jiumen was surprised and happy, and said: "dig! Dig the ground for me!"
The butcher said with surprise on his face: "Is there a mechanism underground here?"
One sentence reminded the captain of the Nine Gates: "That's right! There must be a mechanism. Find the mechanism. Don't dig randomly, lest you hurt Mr. Leng."
Guard Li asked the slaughter master: "Tell me! Where is the agency? Don't force me to torture!"
The butcher said with a bitter face: "I really don't know, - Sir, I am really unjust. I don't know about this at all. If I knew, how could I allow that beast to do such an evil thing?"
What’s going on!”
Guard Li sneered and said: "Okay, I want to see if you, the master of the altar, can withstand the torture of my guards!" After that, he pointed at him.
"Wait a minute!" Captain Nine Gates said, "The matter hasn't been clarified yet. Don't rush to torture, so as not to accidentally hurt innocent people. It's better to arrest Tu Sha and ask him, he will definitely know! - Where is Tu Sha? Why haven't you arrested him yet?
?I’ve been gone for a long time.”
The guard had no choice but to stop his hand, squat down, and carefully examine the blue brick floor.
Finally, he discovered the mechanism and pushed it, revealing the hidden compartment below. But the hidden compartment was empty.
After the guard looked carefully, he found a small bulge next to the hidden compartment. When he pressed it, the bluestone slab under his feet suddenly creaked apart on both sides.
It turns out that there is a ledger in this secret compartment. If you take out the ledger directly, the flap will be triggered and the person on it will fall down. But if you press the button next to it, it will slowly separate to the two sides and the person will not fall down.
Yamaguchi Momoe held a phalange in her hand and was about to shoot it again to hit the upper flap. Suddenly, the flap in front of her split open to both sides. However, the flap had been damaged by them, so they only retreated halfway.
Stuck.
Yamaguchi Momoe was worried that it was someone from Zhanhudo, so she hurriedly avoided it and blocked Todayama behind her.
At this time, I heard Guard Li's voice coming from above: "Hey! Is there anyone down there?"
Yamaguchi Momoe was overjoyed and quickly shouted: "Li Weiwei! We are below! Help!"
