After a few breaths, the nearby boss arrived and said, "Greetings, sir!"
“Who is the deceased??”
Li Mu asked.
"The deceased was a scholar, Tang Xiucai Tang Muhua... Tang Xiucai was only twenty-five years old, and he was a scholar. He was a good man and had good knowledge. He had 20 acres of land at home, a medicine shop, and a wife.
Two sons, one daughter, and parents are still alive!"
"He is a nice person, but now..."
The owner of the shop also fell silent as he spoke.
Li Mu said: "Does he have any enemies?"
"He has no enemies, he is very popular! He is a scholar, how can he have any enemies?" said the shop owner.
Li Mu asked some more questions, and the shop owner answered them without giving any answers.
The night was already dark and everyone dispersed.
The next day, another yamen officer went to investigate, and all the information was quickly sent up.
"First of all, let's rule out money-related murders. Tang Xiucai's family was of average status, and this little wealth was not enough to cause money-related murders!"
"Secondly, it can also rule out vendetta. Tang Xiucai is very popular and gets along well with his neighbors. Even if he quarreled with some people in the past month, it was just a dispute of temper. There was no deep hatred, let alone murder.
!”
"As for love killing, it's not very likely!"
Sun Mengxi said, leaving the investigation files.
After flipping through the files, there is a detailed file from the Xuanjing Division, which describes Tang Xiucai's life history in detail. In just half a day, his detailed life history was recorded in it, down to the smallest detail. During the investigation process
During the visit, I asked the surrounding neighbors and used hypnosis and induction techniques.
The life of Tang Xiucai cannot be said to be very exciting, just like that of many scholars.
I have no bad hobbies in life. I study in school in my normal time. In my free time, I play with some classmates, read and discuss Taoism, and talk about national affairs.
Such a scholar will not offend anyone, and there is little chance of a vendetta.
As for killing for love, it is impossible.
As for robbery, it is impossible. Some broken silver was found in the burned-down house. The money was not lost, which also rules out the possibility of robbery.
"I have been negligent in recent times. Could it be that criminals are on the rise again?"
Li Mu knocked on the table and said.
Recently, just like a peaceful period, something big like this happened.
"The case is not easy to solve. Could it be that this case cannot be solved?"
Li Mu frowned slightly.
Many cases seem simple, neither tortuous nor complicated, but they just cannot be solved.
In this era, the means of solving crimes are limited. If a criminal commits a murder at night, no one will know he is the murderer if he comes to the scene the next day to watch.
Li Mu looked at the file carefully again, looking back and forth, and found some strange things.
"Tang Xiucai was a scholar, but he also practiced martial arts. It is said that he was at the eighth level of the day after tomorrow. Such qualifications are not very good... There is a sword at home called Dingguang Sword. This sword is said to be a famous sword in ancient times. Tang Xiucai often
Take out this sword and show it to your classmates!"
Li Mu thought about it, then called Sun Mengxi and asked, "Among the many ruins at the crime scene, a fixed light sword was found!"
"Not found!" Sun Mengxi said after recalling for a moment.
"Perhaps, this sword, the Light Sword, is the clue to solving the case!" Li Mu said.
"Impossible!" Sun Mengxi said: "Historical records state that the Dingguang Sword was a sword forged by an emperor in ancient times..."
"I don't understand this, so I'd better ask experts!" Li Mu said.
He greeted Hua Wuying and asked about the princess. For professional matters, you need to ask professionals. This princess has a noble background and profound family education, which is far from being comparable to Li Mu.
"The Dingguang Sword is a sword from ancient times. It is said to have been forged by an emperor of the Shang Dynasty. It is said to be a magical weapon!" Princess Hua immediately told the key to the problem.
"Artifact, are there really artifacts in the world?"
Li Mu asked.
"Yes, artifacts exist!" Hua Wuying said: "It is said that in ancient times, gods forged artifacts. It is said that the Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty got the artifact Xuanyuan Sword by coincidence, which ruled the world for five hundred years! It is said that the Xuanyuan Sword
But it’s hard to say whether it’s true or false in suppressing the national destiny!”
Li Mu said: "Is this true or false?"
Hua Wuying said: "It's half true and half false! The so-called artifact is created by the gods and has supreme power. This is true. You can rely on a mere artifact to be invincible in the world, but there are too many differences.
. Just like my mother, she has a magical weapon called Chengying, which can increase her combat power in her hands, but it can’t be said to be invincible!”
"It's just like when the late emperor held the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, but he was still beaten to death by the Demon Emperor! As far as I know, some forces also have artifacts in their hands, but the result is that they are not invincible. The artifacts are just relatively strong, not sharp.
!”
"A weapon is good if it can be strong!"
Li Mu said, "The more powerful you are, the fewer suitable weapons you have!"
It is so powerful that ordinary weapons will break into pieces after a slight collision and are of little use.
Just like many great masters, the main reason why they choose to use bare hands is that many weapons cannot be used, and they may be broken into pieces after three or five moves.
In addition, some warriors are physically powerful, and their fists are blessed with true energy, which may be sharper than magic weapons, and there is no need for so-called magic weapons.
"Sacred weapons are hard to find, but high-grade divine weapons are still available. The materials for forging weapons come first, and the materials are divided into hundreds of steels, thousands of steels, and ten thousand steels... At your level, only weapons forged by ten thousand steels are suitable.
.To make ten thousand steel, it takes five hundred thousand taels of silver. There are only a limited number of places where it can be forged!"
Hua Wuying said.
"Northwest of Jinling, Jinghu Villa can forge superior magic weapons!"
"Ahem, cough, cough, no more, I have no money!" Li Mu said, feeling that something was a little crooked, he straightened it up immediately and asked: "Is that fixed light sword a magical weapon?"
"This is impossible!" Hua Wuying said: "It's hard to find artifacts, and there aren't many such artifacts in the world. Tang Xiucai is at least a scholar. After investigating eight generations of his ancestors, he's not from a distinguished family. It's impossible to have such artifacts.
Artifact!"
"Over the years, I have seen some forces claiming that a certain artifact appeared, and a certain artifact was unearthed by archeology, but it was later proven that it was a rumor and a forgery... Some skilled craftsmen with outstanding craftsmanship used the fake to look like the real thing, which deceived some people.
people!"
"Also...the artifact's main symbolic meaning is greater than its actual meaning, and it is not as mysterious as the legend!"
"Mother said that if you enter the realm of heaven and human, give me the Shadow Sword... By the way, Marquis Liaoyuan's spear is also a sacred weapon!"
