Chapter 180 The KGB and the CIA (17)
"Yes, I checked when I came in just now, and the original staircase seems to have been destroyed in the bloody massacre. But..." Han Jiang stopped.

"But what?" Tang Feng urged.

"If someone is on it, then we will be able to go up. I have seen that on the inside of the south gate, the original destroyed steps are full of rubble. That is a road." Han Jiang said with certainty.

"You mean we climbed up from that pile of rubble." Tang Feng was a little embarrassed.

"Well, that's the only way." Han Jiang said, and walked towards the south gate.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan hurriedly followed, and when they reached the city gate, Tang Feng called to Han Jiang, "We can climb up, but Liang Yuan... and if we are climbing, the person above will attack us ,The consequences could be disastrous."

Tang Feng's words were not unreasonable. Han Jiang stopped to think for a long time, "Then you and Liang Yuan stay below, and I will rush up alone..."

Before Han Jiang finished speaking, suddenly, the three of them felt the wind blowing above their heads, and a huge, irresistible force hit them from the top of their heads. Han Jiang suddenly raised his head, and saw a huge black object pressing down on the three of them from above. Down, too late to see what it is?Han Jiang instinctively pulled and pushed Tang Feng and Liang Yuan to a safe place outside the city gate. Tang Feng couldn't stand firmly and fell to the ground, but at the moment when he fell to the ground, Tang Feng saw everything clearly ——That is the jack gate in the city gate!And now Han Jiang is standing under the Qianjin Gate, with his life hanging by a thread!

At the last moment when the Qianjin gate was about to fall heavily, Han Jiang turned sideways, almost touching the ground full of gravel and dust, and threw his body out.

"Boom—" With a heavy bang, the jack gate fell heavily into the city gate, raising thick dust.Seeing Han Jiang lying on the ground, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan hurried over to help Han Jiang, "Damn it! Damn it!" Han Jiang cursed while wiping off the thick dust on his face.

"The Qianjin gate definitely didn't fall by itself!" Tang Feng judged.

"Nonsense, it's up to you to say. Bah! Bah!—" Han Jiang said, spitting the dirt out of his mouth.

"Then let's now..." Tang Feng hesitated, he already had a premonition that the enemies on the tower were coming in a bad way.

"Damn, I'm being bullied. Go up and kill him!" Han Jiang said, ignoring the pain, stood up abruptly, pulled out his dagger, walked around the city gate, and rushed straight to the one that stretched all the way to the city gate. On the pile of rubble on the city wall, Tang Feng was worried that Han Jiang's head would get hot and something would happen, so he pulled out his dagger and hurriedly followed, but after walking two steps, he thought of Liang Yuan again, and looked back to see that Liang Yuan was also following, Liang Yuan rushed He nodded, so Tang Feng grabbed Liang Yuan, and the two followed Han Jiang up the rubble pile inside the south gate.

The pile of rubble was very unstable, slippery under his feet, and the rubble kept rolling down. Tang Feng took every step carefully, for fear of falling down with Liang Yuan because of his own footsteps. In front, Han Jiang was already approaching the top of the city wall. The strange thing is that the situation that Tang Feng was worried about did not happen. No one shot at them on the tower, and the tower at the south gate was still dead silent.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan also boarded the city wall, and the three of them looked at each other, and then looked at the tower not far away together, "This kid can't escape!" Han Jiang said bitterly through his teeth, Then rushed up.

Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan to follow, and the three of them came to the gate of the city tower. The gate was not broken and was closed tightly. Tang Feng couldn't help wondering, could it be that the gate had been closed tightly for more than 700 years?

Han Jiang didn't leave much time for Tang Feng to think. He had already kicked open the wooden door. At this time, the sky was already bright, and the rising sun jumped out of the eastern horizon, shining on the vast Gobi Desert, and also shining into the sky. In the dilapidated castle.Holding a dagger in his hand, Han Jiang rushed in first. In the small tower, no one rushed out to fight Han Jiang. In the empty tower, there was only one person curled up in the southeast corner. Three people approached that person. There was a look of astonishment, because the person lying on the ground was Zhao Yong whom they all knew well, and at this moment, he had become a horrible corpse.

[Section [-] The Woman Wearing a Mask]

1
Zhao Yong's death was horrible, his chest seemed to be torn by some sharp weapon, his ribs and internal organs were all exposed, and the blood slowly spread around his body, flowing, like a stream, nourishing the dry and cracked rammed earth on the ground of the tower, Tang Feng saw this After seeing the scene, she felt sick for a while, and hurriedly covered Liang Yuan's eyes, but Liang Yuan still witnessed the bloody scene, and hurriedly turned around and ran to the gate of the tower, vomiting out all the food she ate last night.

Han Jiang and Tang Feng stood beside Zhao Yong's body in a daze for a long time before Han Jiang said, "Tell me your opinion."

"Opinions?" Tang Feng quickly sorted out his thoughts, "I first thought of two questions."

"Oh! Which two questions?" Han Jiang turned his face away and looked at Tang Feng.

"One, why did Zhao Yong appear here? Isn't old K disbanded?..." Tang Feng stopped when he said this, and turned to look at Han Jiang.

Han Jiang wiped the sweat off his face, and sighed: "Actually, it's not surprising that Zhao Yong appeared here. Old K will not really disband until he finds Hanhai Micheng."

"Oh! Are you so sure?" Tang Feng looked at Han Jiang suspiciously.

Han Jiang nodded heavily.

"Then Zhao Yong also came here for Hanhai Micheng? But didn't they lose the jade screen?" Tang Feng became more and more confused.

"I think he came here for Hanhai Micheng. As for the jade screen..." Han Jiang hesitated, "Since he can get here, he must have their road map."

"If Zhao Yong came to look for Hanhai Micheng, why would he come alone? Who was the gunshot that happened yesterday, and who was the person who followed him all the time? Could it be Zhao Yong? Is he the mysterious fourth person?" Tang Feng A litany of questions.

"This is your second question?" Han Jiang asked back.

"No! The second question is who killed Zhao Yong?"

Han Jiang understood Tang Feng's meaning, "Your questions actually mean the same thing. You doubt that Zhao Yong came here alone, there must be someone else, and this person is probably the one who killed Zhao Yong!"

Tang Feng nodded, "If Zhao Yong is the mysterious fourth person, then there should be at least one other person—the mysterious fifth person."

"Mysterious fifth person!" Han Jiang murmured, lost in thought.

Tang Feng continued to analyze: "I took a general look at Zhao Yong's body just now, and found no gun, and his fatal wound was not a gunshot wound, and there were no items carried by Zhao Yong here, so I didn't see a gun at all! Then, yesterday and today What happened to the two gunshots? Also, since there were gunshots and neither of them were aimed at us, then we can definitely conclude that the person who fired the gun must be attacking someone!"

"That is to say, it is definitely not alone!" Han Jiang nodded, "Tang Feng, your analysis is in place, as you said, in this dead city, besides us and Zhao Yong, there should be at least one mysterious person." You think it was that person who killed Zhao Yong, but have you noticed that the wound on Zhao Yong's body is very strange and special!"

Tang Feng immediately understood what Han Jiang meant, "You mean the wounds on Zhao Yong's body are very similar to the wounds on the mummy we saw in the stables yesterday?"

"Yes! It's very similar." Han Jiang said and squatted down again, carefully observing the terrible wound on Zhao Yong's body.

Tang Feng also seemed to have fallen into deep thought. After a long time, Tang Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he exclaimed, "Could it be... Could it be that the beast has come back to life again?"

"Resurrection?" Tang Feng's words surprised Han Jiang.

"If this is the case, then the mysterious fifth person can be ruled out. Zhao Yong encountered a beast, so he shot, but was killed by the beast in the end!" Tang Feng put forward another hypothesis.

Two

Han Jiang heard Tang Feng's second hypothesis, shook his head, and finally expressed his judgment, "First of all, did you just say that Zhao Yong would come here alone? I don't think so. Secondly, if some kind of beast attacks Zhao Yong, why didn't we encounter it? Furthermore, if the two gunshots were fired by Zhao Yong, what about the gun? Would the beast take Zhao Yong's gun? Of course, what is more important is the wound on Zhao Yong's body."

"Wound? What happened to the wound?" Tang Feng didn't understand what Han Jiang meant.

Han Jiang took another look at the terrible wound on Zhao Yong's body, and then explained: "I carefully examined the wound on Zhao Yong's body, and it looked like it was injured by the sharp claws of some kind of beast. It was very similar to what we saw in the stable yesterday. However, the depth of the wounds on Zhao Yong's body, the degree of tearing and the degree of gravity, cannot be compared with the wounds of those mummies in the stable."

"Oh! Why didn't I see it!"

"Yesterday I also carefully inspected the wounds on the mummy. The depth of the attack, the degree of tearing and the degree of gravity far exceeded Zhao Yong's. The most obvious thing was the ribs. Almost all the ribs on the mummy were damaged to varying degrees. It was broken, one can imagine how powerful and ferocious the beast that attacked them was! Although Zhao Yong's chest was torn, his ribs showed no sign of being broken, which shows that the strength that attacked Zhao Yong was far less than that of Zhao Yong. A ferocious beast attacking a mummified corpse." Han Jiang analyzed it in detail.

"Then according to your opinion, who killed Zhao Yong? Is it a smaller version of the beast? Or a more mysterious fifth person?" Tang Feng asked Han Jiang.

Han Jiang was not in a hurry to answer Tang Feng. He squatted down again and gently turned Zhao Yong's body over with his gloves on. After examining it carefully, Tang Feng asked impatiently, "What did you find again?"

"Look at Zhao Yong's wrist!"

Under Han Jiang's prompt, Tang Feng found that Zhao Yong's hands were behind his back, his wrists were red, swollen and bruised, "This..."

"There are also powder dust on the ground!"

"What kind of silk fabric dust is this?!"

"Yes! This means that Zhao Yong had his hands tied behind his back for a long time before his death!" Han Jiang said with certainty.

"Tie your hands behind your back?"

"Obviously this can't be done by a beast, no matter how powerful the beast is!" Han Jiang further analyzed, "This can only be done by humans, and I'm sure Zhao Yong was tied up here before, Let’s look at the Qianjin gate that almost killed us just now.”

As Han Jiang spoke, he walked to the center of the tower, where Liang Yuan was standing, looking down through a crack in the ground.Tang Feng also walked to the gate, Han Jiang squatted down, observed carefully and said: "Look, this is the Qianjin gate that almost killed us just now, it was originally stored in the tower, and it was lowered with a sling when needed. "

"Captain Han, I have always had a question. The person who attacked us just now should be in the tower, but when we came up, we only saw Zhao Yong's body. Where is that person?" Liang Yuan asked suddenly.

Han Jiang looked at Liang Yuan, "Missy can think about things now."

"It would have been!" Liang Yuan insisted.

"Okay, it will be." Han Jiang turned and walked to the wheel next to the gate, "I thought the same as Liang Yuan, thinking that we would be able to catch the person who attacked us by rushing up, but when we rushed up the city wall At that time, no one was seen, so we locked our target in the city tower, but when we entered, there was only Zhao Yong's body inside, and no one was still there. I was also puzzled, but I just glanced at this wheel I understand what's going on!"

"Wheel?" Tang Feng and Liang Yuan focused their eyes on the wooden wheel, and Tang Feng was surprised to find a new thick rope wrapped around the wheel.

"Tang Feng, Liang Yuan, I think you have already seen that the Qianjin gate is controlled by the two runners on both sides of the gate. This runner is still the original runner, but the rope on the runner is no longer from the Yuan Dynasty. Rope, this is a new rope, depending on the material, it can only be a recently manufactured rope!" Han Jiang said at the end, emphasizing his tone.

"This further proves that there is a mysterious fifth person in Qianhu Town! Zhao Yong was also probably killed by that person. But what about that person?" Tang Feng was still puzzled.

"That person has already run away!"

Tang Feng didn't understand what Han Jiang meant, but Han Jiang picked up a piece of broken rope from the gate, "Look, there are traces of fire on it!"

"Traces of fire?!" Only then did Tang Feng realize that the rope in Han Jiang's hand was indeed broken by the fire.

Three

Han Jiang stood up, clapped his hands, and began to speculate about everything possible: "I think it should be like this. We heard a gunshot yesterday morning. It is very likely that Zhao Yong had lost his freedom at that time and was tied up behind bars. Here. As for the gunshot we heard just now, I speculate that Zhao Yong probably broke the rope that tied him backwards, so a fight took place with that man. The gun that man fired, in short, the gun was not a weapon that killed Zhao Yong, but a strange thing. That man must have known about our existence, and even followed us in the dark yesterday. After he killed Zhao Yong, he knew The sound of gunfire would attract us, so he hurriedly cleaned up the scene, took away Zhao Yong and his own belongings, including guns, and then in order to trap us in the urn, he pulled a piece of rope from the wheel in advance , and then calculated the approximate time when we arrived, lit a long enough rope, and when this length of rope burned to the end, it would burn the rope controlling the jack gate..."

"Trap us in the urn." Tang Feng took Han Jiang's words, "You mean that person didn't want to kill us, but just trapped us in the urn?"

"I think so. After all, it's too unreliable to use the Qianjin gate to kill the three of us! Even Zhao Yong, he doesn't want to kill now, but because of Zhao Yong's resistance." Han Jiang explained.

"That's right! Zhao Yong was born in the Marine Corps. Who can subdue him?" Tang Feng shook his head, unable to believe it.

"The person who killed Zhao Yong must be extremely smart. This can be seen from his precise calculation ability, and this person's psychological quality is extraordinary. After killing Zhao Yong and alarming us, he still cleaned up the scene calmly. , just leave!" Han Jiang kept describing the traits of the murderer.

"But with Zhao Yong's skill, few people can subdue him!"

"That's right, Zhao Yong is very skilled, even I can hardly subdue him, but don't forget, if you are an acquaintance, someone you know sneaks up..." Han Jiang didn't finish his sentence.

Tang Feng heard something in Han Jiang's words, and his eyes lit up, "This is not back to my original question, who did Zhao Yong come with, the murderer must be Zhao Yong's acquaintance!"

"Who else do you think old K will be?" Han Jiang asked back.

"If you exclude those who haven't shown up all the time, and then exclude us, only Xu Renyu and Professor Luo are left. Professor Luo has bad legs and is very old. Obviously the murderer can't be him, then the murderer can only be— — Xu Renyu!"

When Tang Feng mentioned Xu Renyu's name, his voice was a little trembling. He still couldn't believe that Xu Renyu killed Zhao Yong, but Han Jiang gave him an affirmative answer, "I think Xu Renyu is the most suspected. He is a Ph. He is very tall and has extraordinary computing power, especially the hands and feet that the man did on the wheel, which immediately reminded me of Xu Renyu, who used to like to play with these gadgets the most!"

"But...but why did Xu Renyu kill Zhao Yong? Could it be that he belongs to the general?" Liang Yuan asked in surprise.

"Yeah, Xu Renyu and I get along day and night. I never saw that tattoo on his body, and I didn't find out that Xu Renyu had any misconduct!" Tang Feng felt his brain was a little confused, and he tried his best to recall every moment of interacting with Xu Renyu.

Han Jiang was silent, he stretched out his hands and fumbled around his body, he was looking for a cigarette, but his right hand was visibly trembling, and he managed to draw out the cigarette with great difficulty, Han Jiang lit the cigarette tremblingly, took a deep breath, and then walked out the door go.

Tang Feng had never seen Han Jiang tremble like this, even when they faced the most dangerous enemy and the most terrifying environment, Han Jiang had never trembled like this.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan also came out. Han Jiang stared blankly at the quiet Qianhu Town under his feet. For more than 700 years, it has stood dead silently on the desolate Gobi Desert. Sunrise and sunset, spring, summer, autumn and winter... Han Jiang Jiang was full of thoughts. In this hot summer, he felt a bit of sadness.
