A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1124

[Chapter 1114 Motivation]

Qi Ning let out an “oh”, and Duan Canghai said, “This grove is not far from the Duke’s yard, if the subordinate guesses correctly, the murderer is going to assassinate the Duke tonight, but for some reason, he suddenly killed him here. You’ve

got someone.”

Qi Ning’s expression was solemn, Duan Canghai’s one sentence was very important, the Bronze General committed a crime outside his own hospital, and it seemed that he was indeed coming for him, and the most terrifying thing was that although the Duke Protector’s Mansion was not a palace , but it is also extremely huge, there are also many large and small courtyards, and the other party obviously knows his place.

In the whole world, of course not everyone can enter the Duke Protector’s Mansion. The other party can know the structure of the mansion, and naturally he has put in a lot of effort.

But now there are two important questions lingering in Qi Ning’s mind.

First of all, if General Bronze was really going to assassinate him, why would he kill Su Lan in the middle of it?

Sulan was just a servant girl in the mansion, with a low status. What was the purpose of General Bronze to kill him?

Secondly, if General Bronze was going to kill people to stand up, why did he find Sulan?

There are nearly two hundred people in the Duke Protector’s mansion. Why did he choose a servant girl with a low status?

He pondered in his heart, at this time Ximen Zhanying had already walked over, and said softly: “When the footprints reach the edge of the forest, they will disappear.”

“Disappear?”

Ximen Zhanying said: “His footprints are very messy for some reason in the forest, but when they come out If I guessed correctly, his Qinggong must be very good, leaving no traces.”

Duan Canghai said: “Guo Gong, whether to send someone to the Shenhou Mansion immediately and let them Come to investigate this matter?”

Qi Ning said, “Madam is from the Shenhou Mansion, isn’t she investigating now?”

Duan Canghai was stunned, then a little embarrassed, he suddenly thought that when he was competing in the palace, Ximen Zhanying mentioned the condition that even if she gets married, she still has to work in the Shenhou Mansion. Duan Canghai forgot about this, and Qi Ning only remembered it.

Ximen Zhanying frowned slightly, and said softly, “Master, did you have contact with that bronze general later?”

Qi Ning shook his head and said, “I saw you once the night I met you. Not to mention I’ve seen you since then, and I haven’t even heard about him.”

“That’s weird.” Ximen Zhanying wondered, “Why did he want to Come to assassinate you?”

Qi Ning said, “He sneaked into the mansion, and naturally he came at me.” After a pause, there was also a look of doubt in his eyebrows: “But since he is coming at me,

Why kill Su Lan?

”

“Did it happen to be discovered by Su Lan?”

Duan Canghai said: “The murderer was seen, so he killed him.

Qi Ning shook his head and said, ”

It doesn’t make sense. The murderer was able to sneak into the mansion, which has proved his extraordinary skills. Even if he encounters Sulan, he can easily escape, and he will never let Sulan find out.”

Looking into Duan Canghai’s eyes, he said, “Sulan is just an ordinary servant girl. Even for you, it shouldn’t be too difficult to avoid Sulan’s eyes and ears.”

Duan Canghai nodded slightly and frowned, ”

That is to say, the murderer intends to kill Su Lan, but Su Lan has always been in the mansion and rarely deals with outsiders, and it is even more impossible to have revenge with such a master. Why did the murderer want to kill her?” ?

”

“Zhan Ying, what do you think is the reason?”

“Qining looked at Ximen Zhanying.

The two of them had bridal chambers before, and the bride was also charming in the room, but now that the murder is involved, the red tide on Ximen Zhanying’s face has already subsided, and there is no more in the room. Charming and charming, she looked capable and neat, she thought for a moment and said, “The murderer didn’t want to kill Sulan, but to suck blood!

”

“Blood?”

Duan Canghai was slightly surprised. In fact, Duan

Canghai

knew a little about the blood-sucking case that happened in the capital earlier, but he didn’t know the details.

Sent when Ran was attacked.

“Ximen Zhanying’s eyes are bright and clear as water: “I just speculated that the murderer may have been injured, and the reason is here.

Sulan is just an ordinary servant girl. In common sense, if the murderer attacked Sulan by surprise, he would be able to do it quietly, and it would never make Sulan scream and attract everyone’s attention.

”

Qining said: “Yes, I am also wondering about this.

”

“Since Sulan has the opportunity to cry out, it means that the murderer’s situation was really wrong at the time.” Ximen Zhanying said: “After he held Sulan hostage, he bit Sulan’s throat and wanted to draw blood. But the guards in the house reacted too quickly, he didn’t have much time, so he took a few sips and fled.” Mei Mu turned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, “He killed Su Lan to get blood, but tonight No matter how stupid the murderer is, he can’t go to the mansion to kill and suck blood, so I guess there should be only one truth.”

“Tell me?”

“The murderer really wants to sneak into the mansion, which is not good for you, but for some reason, his Something must have happened to my body, and I had to get blood, so I had no choice but to find someone to suck blood first, and it happened that Sulan was caught by him, so!” Ximen Zhanying sighed: “So Sulan He was poisoned by him.”

Duan Canghai immediately said: “What Madam said is very true, so it makes sense.”

Qi Ning nodded: “This should be the truth of what happened tonight, he It was not intentional to kill Sulan, but forced by circumstances, and Sulan happened to be caught by him!” After a slight pause, he instructed Duan Canghai, “Send someone to investigate Sulan’s whereabouts tonight and check it out. Her bedroom.” He added: “Go on, everyone who knows about this must keep their mouths shut, and don’t make it public, lest people in the house panic. Find someone to settle Sulan’s body first.”

Duan Canghai Holding hands and saying yes, Qi Ning took Ximen Zhanying’s hand out of the grove, thinking of the innocent death of a young girl in Sulan, and her heart was heavy.

Ximen Zhanying saw it in his eyes and said softly, “Master, things have already happened. As long as we find the bronze general, we can always avenge Sulan.”

Qi Ning forced a smile, but at this moment, he saw Zhao Wu Sang hurried back and said, “Your Highness, that ugly man has disappeared.”

Qi Ning was startled, and Zhao Wushang explained, “I went to the ugly man’s house, but I didn’t see any trace of him, and went back to his usual place. He is nowhere to be seen.”

“Master, who is the ugly ugly man?” Ximen Zhanying asked in confusion.

Qi Ning said, “It’s the ronin I took in. I’m usually close to Su Lan. I’ll talk to you later.” He frowned and asked Zhao Wushang, “Are you sure you can’t find him?”

“The subordinates are still looking for him.

On weekdays, ugly people are often in some corners and nooks, maybe they are hiding somewhere.” Zhao Wushang said.

Qi Ning thought for a while before saying, “Find him and tell me, and don’t let the ugly people know about Sulan’s death for the time being. By the way, does Sulan have a family?”

“As far as my subordinates know, Sulan moved forward four years It was Qiu Yi who came from the mansion and bought the girl from outside at the order of Mrs. Tai.” Although Zhao Wushang was usually taciturn, he knew a lot about the affairs of the mansion: “I heard that her parents are gone, There is only one eldest brother.”

Qiu Yi was the former head of Jinyi’s Qi family and was expelled by Qi Ning long ago.

“The people in the house also told them that Sulan went to his brother’s place.” Qi Ning sighed softly, “The ugly man is very dependent on Sulan and has a lot of affection. If he knew that Sulan was killed, I’m afraid!” No Go on and on.

The ugly man has amnesia and does not understand world affairs. Although he looks hideous, he is innocent and naive, and with such a heart, it is even more difficult to accept Su Lan’s murder.

When the couple returned to the house, they were very depressed.

For Qi Ning, on the wedding night, General Bronze sneaked into the house and killed Su Lan, which of course made him feel very sad and angry, but Ximen Zhanying thought that Bronze General came to the door, although he knew Qi Ning’s martial arts skills Great, but still worried about her husband’s safety.

Most of the red candle has been burned, and only a small part is left, and the hour has passed the ugly hour, and it is almost dawn.

If there was no such thing as Bronze General, Qi Ning would still be fighting with Ximen at this time, but after this incident, although it was the night of the bridal chamber, both of them had no intention of entering Wushan again.

Ximen Zhanying poured a cup of tea for Qi Ning, sat next to Qi Ning, and comforted: “Master, you don’t have to worry, tomorrow morning, let’s go to the second senior brother and let them start investigating the matter. This time the bronze The general shows up, if the second brother and the others do their best to investigate, they will definitely be able to find clues, and then the bronze general will definitely be caught by us.”

Qi Ning forced a smile, took Ximen Zhanying’s hand, and asked softly, “Zhanying, You said that General Bronze has repeatedly sucked human blood, why did he do this?”

Ximen Zhanying thought for a while before saying: “Xiang Gong, I heard that there are some sinister martial arts in the rivers and lakes. Read the book www.sonicmtl.com Could the bronze general practice some kind of evil martial arts, and he has to obtain human blood to practice?”

Qi Ning shook his head and said, “If there is no such thing as tonight, what you said might still be possible. , But tonight, General Bronze is obviously rushing to take blood. If he wants to practice, there is no need to go to our house to kill people and take blood. Find a quiet place, kill people and take blood without knowing it, and no one can disturb them. But he killed someone tonight, and he ran away before he got the blood, which also proves that he didn’t draw human blood to practice.”

Ximen Zhanying nodded slightly and said, “Xianggong is right, but if it wasn’t for the sake of practicing Qigong.”

Practice, what is that for?”

“When I saw you for the first time, I saw that bronze general sucking blood.” Qi Ning’s brows were slightly tight, “I was thinking, why do you want to be a good person? There is always a reason for sucking blood, such a horrific act? Actually, the blood-sucking practice you just mentioned is what I have been thinking about, and I think it is very possible, but what happened tonight has overturned it. This possibility.” He stared at the red candle on the table, pondered for a moment, and then said, “I think he absorbs human blood, not to practice, but to save his life!” –
