Chapter Twenty-Three

The heavy rain outside the house began to gradually decrease as time went by, and then the dark night sky began to show traces of white light, which meant that daytime was coming.

Maybe many people couldn't stand it any longer. In addition, due to the reduced rain, the number of people in the house gradually began to decrease, and they had already rushed back to their own rooms. Maybe they had no idea about this matter.

From their point of view, they probably wouldn't be able to give any explanation for the matter for a while, so they would simply have a good sleep and come back at dawn to find out what happened.

"Ah sneeze——"

The figures dispersed, and the breeze suddenly came. Zhengyao couldn't help but sneeze again, and it seemed that the smell of alcohol appeared again.

When Zhengyao looked back out the window, he didn't find anything. He had no choice but to shake his head. Maybe he was too sensitive, so he turned his head towards Zhang Rufeng.

Everyone was still waiting for Zhang Rufeng to describe Huiming, and they all focused on Zhang Rufeng.

Zhang Rufeng once again made a recollection, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "I have never met Huiming, but when I received the painting, the man once said that Huiming was very skilled in martial arts. He once entered the Mongolian army alone and only broke a horse.

He pulled out a finger to tell us not to play tricks. At the same time, he threatened that Huiming once had signs of ulceration on the left side of his face because he practiced some kind of powerful martial arts, and this kind of martial arts seemed to be the legendary long-lost needle.

The needle flew out and the blood sealed the throat. At that time, none of us dared to show any signs of neglect."

"A needle? There are signs of ulceration on the left half of the face? A broken finger?" Zhengyao said with some confusion.

What Rufeng said in this article is similar to what the abbot of Hue said. However, the abbot of Hue only said that Hui Ming had a large black mole on his face instead of any signs of ulceration. There seemed to be some flaws here.

"Yes, that's what that person said, I don't know the rest."

As if he felt that Zheng Yao didn't believe it, Zhang Rufeng affirmed his words again and looked at Zheng Yao very firmly.

"There are signs of ulceration on the left half of the face... There are signs of ulceration on the left half of the face... Ulceration!!!"

Suddenly, Zhengyao seemed to have thought of something and suddenly came back to his senses. He clenched his fists, which were extremely strong.

"Hey, idiot, what's wrong with you!" Ning An didn't understand why Zhengyao acted like this, so he came over and patted Zhengyao on the shoulder.

Prince Jing and others were also puzzled by Zhengyao's move, so they came over one after another.

"You two still remember the old man you saw who looked very old and had acne on his face when you went up to the observation tower? Also, second brother, do you remember that you thought the other man was suspicious?" Zhengyao

He looked at Ning'an and the other three and said in a suggestive manner.

"When you put it like that, it really reminded me of that man. That man also exuded an unpleasant smell. Yes, it should be the smell of wine." Ning An woke up from a dream and immediately catered to Zheng Yao and said

.

When Liu Yan heard what Zhengyao said, he nodded quickly. This reminded him that the man seemed to have been ignored by him, and various signs showed that the mysterious man was the most suspicious.

"Zhengyao, if you react like this, is there something wrong with that person?"

Prince Jing did not pay attention to these things at the time, and had never seen the so-called mysterious man. Naturally, he would not think that the mysterious man was suspicious, but now that he heard what Zhengyao, Ning'an, Liu Yan and others said, he began to become suspicious.

Zhengyao calmed down, and then said: "Yes, I suspect that the man with acne on his face that I saw on the observation floor is the mysterious man you saw downstairs, and this mysterious man

It is very possible that he is the Huiming we have been looking for!"

"Huiming?"

Although everyone felt that the man was suspicious, they still had reservations if they said he was Huiming. After all, if it was Huiming, then why did he kill Liao Yun and Li Yuanshu? Twenty years have passed and it makes no sense.

After Huiming caused trouble in Wuchanyuan, he went to Fahua Temple to cause trouble again!

"Yes, according to my estimation, this person is probably Huiming. First of all, Huiming was in Fahua Temple twenty years ago, so he is naturally familiar with Fahua Temple. If he wants to kill people here, he still has to do it.

It's very easy; secondly, Huiming has martial arts, which was already known in Wuchanyuan, and when he was in Wuchanyuan, he may have been afraid of exposing his identity, so he used fake moles to cover up the acne on his face; thirdly, a needle was flying.

Yunzhai once appeared, and it may be closely related to Huiming; fourth, Fahua Temple is a royal temple. Although the court does not come to offer incense much now, it still has a certain heritage. Most people will never dare to do it again, and

Huiming was very likely to have colluded with the Mongolian side when he was in Wuchanyuan, so there must be a back-up behind him. In this case, it is normal for Huiming to commit crimes here, and I can also guess that he did all this.

He was ordered by others!"

What Zheng Yao said is very precise and clear, and it makes perfect sense. If you think about it, that's really what happened.

"It seems that the first priority right now is to find this 'Huiming', and other things will be much easier to handle!"

Prince Jing seemed to understand, so he nodded and said thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Everyone said in unison.

"Wang Heng, please pass on the order. We will increase the scope of inspections tonight. We will mainly pay close attention to people who are acting suspiciously and have scars on their faces. However, we must not alert others. It is already getting late. You should go back and rest early. There may be more tomorrow.

Hard."

After King Jing finished speaking, he also showed a trace of tiredness. Indeed, in the middle of the night, no one can avoid feeling sleepy.

After hearing what King Jing said, Zhengyao and others also nodded and prepared to go back to their rooms immediately.

"What about me? What should I do?" Seeing that everyone was about to leave, Zhang Rufeng couldn't help but feel frightened and shouted.

Seeing Zhang Rufeng's appearance, everyone naturally understood what he was afraid of. After all, two of the three people in this room had died one after another. Although Zhang Rufeng was a martial artist, he was already forty or fifty years old now and could not move around much.

He is not as agile as before, and besides, he still firmly believes in the theory of ghosts and gods, so it is really hard for him to accept that he is asked to stay here alone.

Prince Jing couldn't help but smile and said, "Go and discuss with the abbot and see if we can find another room for you."

After saying that, Prince Jing had no intention of saying anything more and turned around to leave.

Ning An and others also had no favorable impressions of Zhang Rufeng. After all, this was all the result of his own timidity and fear of getting into trouble. Moreover, he himself had done some things that went against brotherhood, so naturally he would not be considered sympathetic.

So Ning'an and his party didn't even look at Zhang Rufeng, turned around and left.

However, Zhengyao went up to comfort him a little. After all, Zhang Rufeng was still a witness, and he had also solved some mysteries for himself. After that, Zhengyao left with Yuan Haiyun, Zhang Cheng, Liu Yan and a group of people from the Shuzhou Guild Hall.

Finally, after Zhang Rufeng begged hard, the abbot was able to let Zhang Rufeng change rooms, but he was still in the second building.

"Third brother, don't you think this Zhang Rufeng may also encounter the same danger as Liao Yun and Li Yuanshu?" When he was about to arrive at the house, Liu Yan finally spoke out. In fact, as early as in the second building, Liu Yan

Yan already wanted to ask.

"Yes, this is not impossible." Yuan Haiyun also agreed with Liu Yan's statement and immediately stepped forward and said.

Zhang Cheng on the side also nodded repeatedly, feeling that what Zhengyao said was very possible.

Zheng Yao gently opened the door, walked to the table and sat down, poured a cup of tea for the three of them, and then said with a smile: "Of course it is possible. After listening to Zhang Rufeng's words, I am even more certain that the murderer is

It was premeditated, and the target persons were the three escorts from Qingmei Escort Agency."

Zhang Cheng nodded, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with slight doubt: "What the third brother said is not unreasonable, but this Huiming had already met the third escort twenty years ago.

Why didn't you kill these three people instead of killing them now?"

What Zhang Cheng is confused about is also what Liu Yan and Yuan Haiyun are confused about. Doesn’t this really make sense? Why do we have to wait twenty years to kill people? Besides, Huiming and Zhang Rufeng don’t have any deep hatred, so why should they kill them all?

Woolen cloth?

"No, no, no..." Zhengyao shook his head, took a sip of tea and continued: "Although there are various signs that this case is related to Huiming, as you said, why did Huiming do these things?

There is no reason and it doesn’t make sense! So, I think someone is deliberately misleading us to focus on Huiming and ignore the real murderer."

"The real murderer?" The three of them couldn't help but take another long breath, as if they always felt that Zhengyao's mind was spinning faster than their own.

"Yes, in my opinion, this murderer is someone else. Moreover, I think this person should have some kind of close relationship with these three people and know their living customs very well. For example, Liao Yun likes to climb

However, Li Yuanshu and Zhang Rufeng were afraid of heights, so Liao Yun went upstairs alone and then fell down. Later, when they learned that Li Yuanshu and Zhang Rufeng would drink tea when they were nervous, they went to tea

They put medicine in it, causing the two of them to lose consciousness. I don't think Huiming would adopt such a method."

Regarding the analysis of the case, Zheng Yao was indeed more professional than the three people in front of him, and the key points he said were refreshing. After listening to Liu Yan and the others, they also felt that it seemed to be the case, but in the blink of an eye, they still felt a little uncomfortable.

He understood very well and looked at Zhengyao in confusion.

Zhengyao looked at the three people who sometimes understood and sometimes didn't understand. He couldn't help but smile again. He opened the peach blossom fan and said slightly: "Actually, whether Huiming has ever killed anyone is just our guess. Although I

I have never met Huiming, but I feel that with Huiming's martial arts, there is no need to go to such trouble to lure Liao Yun to the observation tower and fall down, let alone drugging two people who have not practiced martial arts for many years. On the contrary

I am even more convinced that Huiming did appear in Fahua Temple and was indeed involved in this incident, but he was just acting as a spoiler to mislead us."

"Misleading us?"

The three of them were puzzled again. How come Zhengyao's thoughts are always different from what he thinks?

"But this is also my guess, because I always feel that there is someone else responsible for this incident, because when we climbed up to the observation tower, the Huiming we saw smelled of alcohol and looked very panicked, but

Thinking about it carefully, the strip of cloth was so thick. After Huiming climbed down from the top floor, he greeted us a few times and stayed for a few seconds. Then we climbed up the stairs and circled half a circle around the observation tower.

In the time it took, even ten such strips of cloth had been burned to ashes. How could they have been sustained until they burned out when we arrived? It is obviously unreasonable. Moreover, I suspect that the murderer was actually there at that time.

at the scene!"

"The murderer is at the scene???"

Zheng Yao's bold speculation had to make the three of them stand up immediately. This was too unbelievable. The murderer stayed at the scene of the crime and no one wanted to believe that this was true.

.

"I have reservations about this. I want to wait until tomorrow for us to go upstairs and have a look. Maybe we will make new discoveries!"

"Okay! It seems that the third brother also hid something in front of everyone!" Liu Yan chuckled and said.

He also admired Zhengyao more and more, knowing that Zhengyao's intention was to give the murderer the illusion that Huiming was the murderer. This kind of trickery was indeed used well.

"Okay! If you keep talking like that, I don't think it will be possible not only tomorrow but also the day after tomorrow to go up and sleep!" Yuan Haiyun couldn't hold on any longer, and his eyes had narrowed to a slit.
