Chu Xiu's sudden question made everyone present stunned.
Just as Qiu Dongmao was about to say something, he subconsciously opened his mouth, but immediately held it back and said with an angry look on his face: "Of course I'm in Shangyang!
Mr. Chu, what do you mean by this? Are you suspecting that I poisoned my father?"
Cheng Bushi also looked at Chu Xiu with an unkind look, and said coldly: "Master Chu, your Guanzhong Punishment Hall is indeed good at detecting traces and investigating cases, but everything must be based on evidence. You ask Qiu like this
What does Young Master mean?"
The Five Heroes of Jiangdong escorted Qiu Dongmao all the way to Pegasus Ranch. The five of them all had good feelings about Qiu Dongmao.
Qiu Zhensheng was a man who was generous with money and respected simplicity, but his eldest son Qiu Dongning was a bit domineering and a playboy. All five of them had met him, and none of them had a good impression.
However, Qiu Dongmao was modest, polite, and a kind and filial person. He often felt sad about the news of Qiu Zhensheng's death on the road. The five of them also saw it, and their sense of Qiu Dongmao was really good.
As a result, Chu Xiu now questioned Qiu Dongmao in a tone of interrogation of a prisoner, which made the five of them a little dissatisfied.
Chu Xiu said calmly: "Don't get excited, I'm just asking, why are you so sensitive?"
Qiu Dongmao's eyes showed a hint of anger, but Chu Xiu didn't care at all.
In fact, he didn't care how Qiu Zhensheng died. What Chu Xiu really cared about was where Qiu Zhensheng's technique was. If it was taken away by someone, or if Qiu Zhensheng recited the technique,
Then it was destroyed, so Chu Xiu was a little unlucky.
What he asked Qiu Dongmao just now was really just a casual question to deceive the other party.
Human nature is inherently evil. From the beginning, Chu Xiu did not believe that there was a person in this world who had been treated so unfairly, but in the end, he had no resentment in his heart.
The poison of July Begonia cannot kill Qiu Zhensheng, but it can kill Qiu Dongning.
Who would benefit the most if Qiu Dongning died? Of course it would be Qiu Dongmao.
Qiu Zhensheng needs someone to inherit his martial arts, inherit his horse-raising skills, and inherit his position as the owner of Pegasus Ranch.
This person was definitely Qiu Dongning before, and if Qiu Dongning dies, it can only be Qiu Dongmao.
At this time, Chu Xiaode and others also returned after exploring the traces in other places of Zhuangzi. Chu Xiaode shook his head and said: "The other party only came here to kill people. Apart from the traces of murder, nothing else in Zhuangzi has been touched. The method is simple
It’s very neat, and there are no traces left.”
Wang Jin frowned and said, "Master Chu, don't you have any clue at all?"
Guanzhong Punishment Hall has always been famous for detecting traces and solving cases. The professionalism shown by Cheng Zhouhai just now is indeed good. If it were anyone else, even a martial arts master would not be able to see these things.
But the problem is that the Eastern Qi court wanted the murderer and an explanation, and it was useless to talk about anything else.
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice: "Prince, please don't be anxious, the investigation of the Guanzhong torture hall also depends on looking for traces and clues.
The murderer is so clean now that he will definitely not be able to find it for a while. Otherwise, if the case is so simple, Dong Qi can solve it by himself, so why bother to come to me, Guanzhong Punishment Hall?
Please rest assured, Eunuch Wang, we will definitely give an explanation to the Eastern Qi court about this case."
Hearing what Chu Xiu said, Wang Jin was still a little dissatisfied, but he still nodded and said: "Okay, our family will go back to the imperial city to recover first, and we will be back in a day or two. I hope that Master Chu will be able to come back by then."
There will be clues on your side."
After saying that, Wang Jin turned around and left.
At this time, Wu Tiandong suddenly muttered in a low voice with a hint of disdain: "Guanzhong Torture Hall? That's all."
Chu Xiu suddenly raised his head, the Tian Mo Wu in his hand had been unsheathed, and it was slashing directly towards Wu Tiandong with a deep demonic aura. No one present expected that Chu Xiu would suddenly attack, not even Fang Zhenqi could react.
.
Wu Tiandong was startled. The Qiuyue swords in his hands were subconsciously placed in front of him. The swords were like full moons and suddenly erupted with a dazzling sword light. However, they were still slashed away by Chu Xiu's sword.
Leaning against the wall behind him, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and he couldn't even hold the knife.
When Cheng Buhe and the other four saw this, they immediately drew their weapons, and their bodies exploded with aura, shouting angrily: "Chu Xiu! What do you mean?!"
The Five Heroes of Jiangdong were sworn to Jinlan and were as close as brothers and sisters. Even if the person in front of them was Chu Xiu, who was backed by the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, they still dared to take action.
Chu Xiu put away his Heavenly Demon Dance and said slowly: "If you can't speak, don't speak. How can Guanzhong Punishment Hall be slandered by an idiot like you?
People have to be responsible for their own words and deeds. For such a big person, it turns out that he can't even control his own mouth. You must know that trouble comes from your mouth. If you have a bad mouth, don't talk. Do you understand?"
Wu Tiandong glared at Chu Xiu, with a look of shame and anger on his face, and a little fear in his heart.
He and Chu Xiu were both warriors in the Three Flowers Gathering Realm. However, Chu Xiu's sword blow just now made him feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart. It was a feeling of powerlessness that he could not resist at all!
Fang Zhenqi said coldly from the side: "If the five of you continue to make trouble, get out of here!
And Chu Xiu, please show some restraint, I, Dong Qi, invited you here to solve the problem, not to cause trouble!"
As a general of the Dragon Cavalry Forbidden Army, Fang Zhenqi values rules the most, and the Dragon Cavalry Forbidden Army also requires the enforcement of orders and prohibitions.
And this Chu Xiu's character is simply moody, and he just took action without any warning. If this kind of person were his subordinate, he would definitely make him look good.
Chu Xiu shrugged and said, "If others don't mess with me, I will naturally be too lazy to mess with others."
Chu Xiu turned around and said to Chu Xiaode: "Take me to the inside of Zhuangzi again and look through it to see if there are any secret rooms or anything like that.
Qiu Zhensheng was well-liked in the world, but now he is killed for no reason. There may be some hidden secret in this."
Chu Xiaode nodded, and followed Chu Xiu to explore inside the village again, but this time Qiu Dongmao followed Chu Xiu closely, as if he was worried that Chu Xiu had taken some of Qiu Zhensheng's relics.
In fact, Chu Xiu was indeed looking for traces of that skill, although he knew that it was unlikely that Qiu Zhensheng would bring that skill to light.
Nowadays, most of the top martial arts techniques are engraved on the jade slips of martial arts, which makes it easier to understand the true meaning of martial arts.
Another part is just like the Great Compassion of Heaven and Earth Conquering Yin and Yang obtained by Chu Xiu. It is written on special things with special materials, and it also has the true meaning of martial arts.
This kind of thing can be found at a glance. The Qiu family's village is so big, with less than ten houses, and even after searching all of them, nothing was found.
It was almost getting late at this time, and Chu Xiu and others had no intention of exploring any further, so they said goodbye to Fang Zhenqi. However, Qiu Dongmao insisted on keeping vigil for Qiu Zhensheng here, but was ignored by Fang Zhenqi.
The town flag was blown out.
As the private army of the Eastern Qi royal family, the Dragon Cavalry Forbidden Army can be said to be strictly prohibited. Even Qiu Dongmao, the son of Qiu Zhensheng, cannot even think of staying here alone.
The place where Chu Xiu and others rested was conveniently in the Pegasus Ranch. There were some guest rooms here, so the people from Dong Qi arranged Chu Xiu here.
In the guest room, Chu Xiu looked at the people around him and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, you know that I am not very good at this. What suggestions do you have now?"
Zhong Ping shook his head indifferently. He was from the Criminal Investigation Department and could only kill people. It was best not to ask him for other matters.
Wang Qianping smiled and said: "This time the hall master asked Mr. Chu to lead the team. I will do whatever Mr. Chu says."
Along the way, Wang Qianping behaved in an extremely low-key manner. He did whatever he was asked to do, and did not go against the rules, as if there was really no grudge between him and Chu Xiu.
But Chu Xiu will not be fooled by his tricks. This guy is basically a smiling tiger. He dug a hole for Chu Xiu when they first met. Maybe he is thinking about something now.
The only people present who were really willing to contribute were Chu Xiaode and Cheng Zhouhai. The two looked at each other and Cheng Zhouhai said: "This case is really difficult.
First of all, judging from the corpses and traces of the fight, there are very few clues. There is no clue at all. This clue has been broken.
Moreover, Qiu Zhensheng's reputation in the world is really good, and he can hardly find any enemies. Even if he has some grievances occasionally, he will not kill people, and he does not even have the ability to kill people.
The two most important effects have been cut off. Even if we use the stupidest method, we can't investigate Qiu Zhensheng's enemies one by one."
Several people present looked at Chu Xiu. Although Chu Xiu was not good at these things, Chu Xiu led the team this time. The case was not completed. Chu Xiu's responsibility was greater than all of them. He wanted to
It is impossible to stay aloof.
Chu Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "I don't know much about this aspect, but I only know that any feud in the world cannot escape two words: hatred and profit.
Qiu Zhensheng had almost no enemies, so we can simply guess that the other party killed someone for profit. Qiu Zhensheng must have touched the interests of some people and was killed.
During the day, the traces on Qiu Zhensheng's body also revealed that the poisoner and the murderer were two people. It was obvious that the person who wanted to kill Qiu Zhensheng suddenly had the intention.
If we go in the opposite direction and ignore the clues inside Zhuangzi, but go outside to see where he has been and what he has done during this period, we will probably gain something."
Cheng Zhouhai thought for a while and said: "This is feasible. You can give it a try. Now that the clues are interrupted, this is the only way."
After the plan was made, everyone rested for the time being. After the second day, Chu Xiu and the others asked the people under Pegasus Ranch and learned that Qiu Zhensheng spent most of his time at Zhuangzi and Pegasus Ranch.
, I only went to Jeju Mansion a month ago, and Chu Xiu and others immediately went to Jeju Mansion to investigate.
