Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 497 Gui Yibo

Wei Er said: "To tell you the truth, a year ago, when Wang Qiang was not in the castle, I entered the 'Valley of Death' along the secret passage, just to find the secret door, but after some investigation, I finally returned without success." .”

Wei'er said: "Based on what we know so far, it is certain that Wang Qiang has transported the money to the 'Mountain of Darkness' to hide."

Di Renjie shook his head and said, "They didn't transport the payment to the 'Mountain of Darkness'."

Wei'er looked at Di Renjie in surprise: "Oh? My lord, how do you know?"

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang also looked at Di Renjie in surprise.

Di Renjie said, "The rut."

Wei'er was puzzled and asked, "Runs?"

Di Renjie nodded and said: "Just now you said that to enter the 'Mountain of Darkness' you must first pass through the 'Valley of Death', right?"

Weier said, "Exactly."

Di Renjie said: "This morning, Zeng Tai and I led an army to conduct a thorough search of the Valley of Death, and found no track marks left by the carriages loaded with pay. From this, it can be concluded that the silver carts did not enter the 'death valley. Valley'."

Wei'er seemed to be talking to herself and asked a question, "This is strange, since they don't want to hide the money in the 'Dark Mountain', why did they drive the silver car into the secret passage?
There is no fork in that secret passage, it can only lead to the 'Valley of Death'. What is the purpose of doing so? "

Di Renjie said: "This matter is indeed very strange."

Wang Mang asked, "My lord, what happened next?"

Di Renjie let out a long sigh and said, "When we led our army back to the castle, the most unexpected murder happened there, and also the most bizarre murder I have ever seen in my life."

After hearing this, everyone in the room looked at each other in dismay, so Wang Mang said softly, "What murder?"

Zeng Tai sighed at the side: "The more than [-] soldiers guarding the castle all died. There were no wounds on the bodies, no signs of poisoning, and the faces of the dead were lifelike. The strangest thing is that there are no suspicious signs left in the castle."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang said in surprise: "How, how is this possible? There is no wound, no poisoning, the dead man's expression remains unchanged, and there are no suspicious signs in the castle. How did that man die?"

Di Renjie said sadly: "It's true."

Zeng Tai said: "Jing Yang, Yuan Fang, that scene is really terrifying, everyone seems to be alive, but everyone is already dead."

Wang Mang took a deep breath, and said two words from between his teeth: "Who is it?"

Di Renjie frowned again: "This is the most difficult thing to judge at present. The deceased had no wounds and no signs of poisoning. If I can barely say that there are some discoveries, it is that I found some similar Little red dots of bird droppings."

As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and spread it on the table.

Everyone gathered around, only to see that there were dots of red excrement inside.

Suddenly, Wang Mang said: "My lord, I have seen this red dot before!"

Di Renjie raised his head upon hearing this: "Oh, where is it?"

Wang Mang said: "On the night when I visited Yibo Mansion for the first time..."

Zeng Tai who was at the side said in surprise: "It's Gui Yi Bo Mansion again?"

Wang Mang nodded: "Exactly, that night, brother Yuanfang and I sneaked into the uncle's mansion, and found a few carriages parked in the backyard, and the whole body was covered with yellow tarpaulin.

I gently lifted the tarpaulin and found that the inside was a wooden cage made of logs, and a layer of straw was spread underneath. There were many small red spots on the straw, but nothing else could be seen.

At that time, I felt very strange that there was nothing in the huge carriage except some straw and the same little red spots as in this handkerchief. "

"and after?"

Di Renjie asked eagerly.

Wang Mang said: "Afterwards, I only felt a tingling pain in my fingers. Upon closer inspection, I found that the joint of my index finger was punctured by something."

Di Renjie said: "Jing Yang, did you see clearly what pierced the knuckle of your index finger?"

Wang Mang shook his head and said: "No. But after I thought about it carefully, it is very likely that it is those mysterious things that are locked in the cage without the beginning and the end."

Di Renjie nodded and said, "Jing Yang, are you sure that the mysterious thing that stabbed you is inside the cart?"

Wang Mang said with certainty: "It should be possible."

Di Renjie murmured, "What on earth is this?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Di Renjie pondered and said: "From the current point of view, if the little red dot I found at the scene of the murder is the same thing as the little red dot Jing Yang saw on the cart in the backyard of the Bofu, then it is certain that it happened at the scene of the murder. The tragedies in Gubao and Hongjiabao were created by Wang Qiang and his gang from the Black Clothes Club using this mysterious thing."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and they nodded slowly.

Di Renjie asked: "Then, what is this terrifying mysterious thing, and why did Wang Qiang and his gang use it?"

Everyone looked at each other, and the room was silent for a while.

After a long time, Di Renjie said, "Madam..."

Wei'er smiled and said: "My lord, the little girl has escaped from the uncle's house, so the title of madam can be omitted, just call Wei'er."

Di Renjie nodded: "Weier, you have been by Wang Qiang's side for a long time, according to your analysis, what is this mysterious thing?"

Wei'er pondered for a long time, then slowly shook her head and said, "I've never heard Wang Qiang talk about it."

"Then, do you know what was in the carriages parked in the uncle's house that night?"

"I don't know. Wang Qiang never told me about these things. I only know that Wang Qiang rushed back to Liangzhou this time to make a deal with someone."

Di Renjie raised his head: "A deal?"

Wei Er said: "It seems to be."

Di Renjie asked Zeng Tai again: "Zeng Tai, what is the origin of this return to Uncle Yi?"

Zeng Tai said: "Ah, Uncle Guiyi is the earl conferred by the Emperor Taizong himself, and he is on the fifth rank. Since Taizong's reign, it has been passed down for three generations.

Uncle Gui Yi of this generation is named Wang Kai. He usually lives in seclusion and rarely comes into contact with others. "

Di Renjie raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Zeng Tai went on to say: "Yes. When the student just arrived, he came to the governor's mansion to have an audience. It was this suit."

Wang Mang and Li Yuanfang looked at each other, and Wang Mang said: "My lord, brother Yuanfang and I have seen him in the uncle's residence, and his appearance is exactly the same as that of the Black Clothes Club."

Di Renjie nodded slowly.

Zeng Tai said: "However, although this Wang Kai is an expensive earl, he never shows off his personality and has a good reputation in Liangzhou City.

Just now when Yuan Fang and Jing Yang talked about what happened in Guiyi Bo's Mansion, the students felt very puzzled, how could Wang Kai get involved with the gangsters of the Black Clothes Club. "

Wang Mang said: "Your Excellency, Brother Zeng, you may not know that this Uncle Gui Yi Wang Kai and the Black Clothes Society's Ni Kui Wang Qiang are brothers."

Di Renjie was startled: "Oh?"

Zeng Tai was even more surprised: "Is there such a thing?"

Wang Mang nodded and said, "Wei'er, tell me."
