Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 357 The Death of Xiao Qingfang

At this moment, there were chaotic footsteps outside the altar, and Wen Kai and Zhou Yi rushed in with their troops. When they saw Di Renjie, they hurried forward: "Ge Lao!"

Di Renjie asked: "How is it? Has the army already entered the main altar?"

Wen Kai said: "Except for the [-] soldiers guarding Tuoluo Town and guarding the prisoners, all have entered!"

Di Renjie nodded: "Right now, Niqu Xiao Qingfang is on the run. Although Jing Yang pursued him, this is Xiao Qingfang's lair, and he may not be able to catch up. Therefore, Zhou Yi, you personally lead five hundred soldiers to fight against the enemy in the cave. Let’s start a search in every channel, and bring this thief to justice!”

Zhou Yi bowed and replied, "Yes!"

Ruyan said: "Uncle, my little girl is very familiar with Xiao Qingfang, I will go with them!"

Di Renjie nodded and said, "Be careful with everything!"

Ruyan and Zhou Yi agreed and ran away.

Di Renjie said to Wen Kai: "Wen Kai, you immediately order all the troops to strictly guard the entrances and exits of the cave, and no one is allowed to enter or exit at will!"

Wen Kai agreed loudly and ran out of the altar quickly.

Di Renjie looked at Lu Cheng: "Mr. Lu, please don't take the trouble to lead me to this cave."

Lu Cheng said: "There is no need for adults to bother about what is in their duties. Please come with me."

Di Renjie said: "Yang Fang, Ren Kuo."

The two stepped forward: "Yes."

Di Renjie said: "The two of you lead a few guards here to protect Wen Wenzhong's safety, and the rest of you will follow this pavilion into the mountain cave!"

Everyone answered "yes" loudly.

On the cave path, Xiao Qingfang was galloping under the guard of the man in purple. After turning a corner, she looked back and saw that there were no pursuers behind her. Then she let out a long breath and said, "Let's go to the right from here and enter the six Secret door No. [-], and then escape from the main altar from No. [-] snake lair."

A man in purple nodded and said: "Sister, there is still some distance to the No. [-] secret door, is your injury okay?"

Xiao Qingfang shook her head, and stretched out her hand to pull out the feather arrow on her shoulder: "I didn't expect that the main altar would be destroyed like this, what a disaster for Xiao Qiang!

Wang Jingyang, Lu Cheng, Xiaomei, just wait, sooner or later I will kill you all! "

The man in purple took out a golden medicine and applied it to her wound, Xiao Qingfang's body twitched in pain.

Suddenly, there was a sound of light footsteps ahead.

The man in purple was stunned immediately, and said softly: "There is someone!"

Xiao Qingfang was startled and stood up.

A figure came slowly, it was Wang Mang.

Xiao Qingfang cried out in surprise: "It's you!"

Wang Mang smiled: "Didn't expect that!"

Xiao Qingfang resisted the severe pain of the wound, and said: "Junior brother, don't you want to know the time when Luohe is miraculous?"

Wang Mang smiled disdainfully: "Do you really think it was true when it was written on that note?"

"what?"

Xiao Qingfang was taken aback.

Wang Mang said: "My good senior sister, you should wake up, as a teacher, will he write out the secret?"

As he spoke, Wang Mang slowly drew out the sword in his hand.

Xiao Qingfang backed away in shock: "You, what are you going to do?"

Wang Mang sighed: "In order to get that secret, you have to die!"

A cold light flashed, Xiao Qingfang's throat was split open, and his body fell heavily on the ground.

The men in purple beside him also immediately fell into a pool of blood.

Wang Mang pondered for a while, and swung the sword in his hand again and again.

"Shhhhh!"

On the ground, countless cracks appeared on the inner wall of the cave.

"Curachi!"

Wang Mang put the sword back into its sheath, looked at the scene of the fight, and nodded with satisfaction.

……

On the other side, the stone door of the stone room in the cave opened suddenly, and Di Renjie and his party walked in.

There was a corpse lying on the ground, it was Yuan Tiangang.

Lu Cheng screamed in surprise and rushed over: "Old master!"

Di Renjie gasped, and asked Li Yuanfang, "Is this person Yuan Tiangang?"

Li Yuanfang nodded: "Exactly. I saw Lu Cheng when I followed him."

Di Renjie nodded.

Lu Cheng knelt beside the corpse, tears streaming down his face: "Old master, you, why didn't you see through that vicious woman sooner—"

As he spoke, he sobbed softly.

Di Renjie walked up to the corpse and patted Lu Cheng on the shoulder lightly. Lu Cheng stood up quickly: "My lord, this is the old master, Mr. Yuan Tiangang."

Di Renjie nodded, and squatted down to examine the corpse carefully. There was a big hole in the chest of the corpse, and the blood had already solidified. Di Renjie said softly, "It was injured by a sharp knife."

He stretched out his hand to open Yuan Tiangang's eyes, took a closer look, shook his head slightly, and stood up: "It seems that the 'Snake Spirit' has an internal struggle."

Li Yuanfang nodded: "My lord, I think Xiao Qingfang must have obtained something from Yuan Tiangang, so he spent all his efforts to rescue him from Hanguang Temple and bring him back to the main altar.

However, once Xiao Qingfang got what she wanted, she would immediately get rid of Yuan Tiangang.That's the way it is now. "

Di Renjie nodded: "That's right. There's a lot to read here!"

As he spoke, he slowly paced up and down, scanning his eyes carefully: everything in the room was clean except for a bundle on the bed.He walked to the side of the couch, opened the package, and there were several ancient almanacs with yellow skins inside.

When Di Renjie saw these almanacs, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Di Renjie picked it up and flipped through it: "This is an ancient almanac, it must be belonging to Yuan Tiangang. He is a master of arithmetic and proficient in calendars. Mr. Lu, am I right?"

Lu Cheng nodded: "That's right. The old master's knowledge of the astronomical calendar, spells and calculations can be regarded as his knowledge from ancient to modern times."

Di Renjie nodded: "Li Yuanfang, order the guards to wrap up Yuan Tiangang's body and keep it safe. I will examine it carefully. Also, everything in this house must be taken away intact."

Li Yuanfang nodded: "Yes."

Zhang Huan rushed in and reported: "Wang Houye, Miss Ruyan and General Zhou found Xiao Qingfang's body in a passage! You go and have a look."

Di Renjie said, "Let's go!"

After all, he strode towards the passage.

The sergeants held up the torches, illuminating the passageway like daylight.

Wang Mang squatted beside Xiao Qingfang's body, watching carefully.

The throat of the corpse was open, and the blood had not yet coagulated.

Di Renjie and his entourage came quickly, and all the troops moved out of the way. Di Renjie came to the corpse and asked, "Jing Yang, what's going on?"

Wang Mang said: "My lord, it's really strange. When I just arrived here, I found the bodies of Xiao Qingfang and those people in purple clothes here, as if they had just been killed."

Di Renjie knelt down and watched carefully. After a long time, he slowly stood up and said, "Have you searched the corpse?"

Wang Mang looked at Ruyan.

Ruyan nodded: "I searched and found nothing. It's just that her heart armor was untied."

Di Renjie raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Ruyan said: "I think the murderer must have searched her body and took away something important."

Di Renjie nodded: "It seems that the cave is not peaceful!"

Wang Mang looked at Di Renjie and didn't speak.
