Chapter 423,424 Boyou Ghost Murder Case(1/2)
I Won’t Be King in the Spring and Autumn Period Chapter 423, 424 Boyou Ghost Murder Case
Although Fan Li didn't believe in these stories about strange powers and gods. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, his legs and feet couldn't help but feel a little weak.
This was something he had never experienced in his life. Seeing the headless man floating away from his eyes, he was so frightened by this scene that he could not move at all.
"It's nothing... nothing more than some people who are pretending to be gods. I, Fan Li, am a man. How can I be frightened by this!"
Fan Li calmed down quickly, and then thought about it carefully. The headless man had obviously discovered him, but ignored him. He was also muttering to himself, saying that he wanted to kill Feng Duan.
What exactly does it mean?
Fan Li straightened his clothes for a while, then walked struttingly on the streets, and found a shelter to settle down. Because what he was wearing now was actually no different from ordinary people in Zheng Yi.
To.
When the sky gradually got brighter, he went to the vegetable market again, and saw that the market seemed extremely deserted, with almost no vendors coming and going.
Just because under the reign of terror of Feng Duan and Shu Niu, the entire Zheng Yi seemed to have fallen into deathly silence, and even ordinary traders did not dare to set up stalls easily.
What's more, the announcement issued not long ago, with all kinds of "behead, behead, behead" words, simply made everyone shudder. Nowadays, you can often see officers and soldiers arresting people everywhere, so the people of Zhengyi dare not easily
go out.
After Fan Li talked with one of the older traders, he learned that the reason why Zheng Yi was dead now was not only the brutal government, but there was another reason - the ghost of Bo You killed someone!
Who is this "Boyou"?
This person is Liangxiao, the former ruling minister of Zheng State, whom I mentioned before. Because he was extremely paranoid, more than twenty years ago, he had a dispute with Sihei, who was just a senior official at the time, and ended up fighting for Sihei.
He was tortured by the private soldiers he led, and was eventually killed in his own stable.
To talk about this good night, it has been dead for decades, so why has it become active again recently?
Just a few days ago, rumors had been circulating throughout Zhengyi that his ghost often haunted the market and sheep shops.
What's more, there are actually people who have seen the headless Boyou holding a big sword and wearing bright clothes, openly appearing on the street, and speaking in a lively and precise manner.
Ghosts walking on the streets in the middle of the night are already scary enough. But a major event that happened the night before yesterday also raised people's panic to an unprecedented level.
That was Si Dai, the leader of the Si clan who was one of the Zhengliu Qing at that time, and he died suddenly and mysteriously!
In the first few nights, rumors had spread in the streets that "Bo You wanted to kill Si Dai", but no one took it seriously.
[To tell you the truth, I have been using the Changing Source app recently to read and catch up on updates. Changing sources allows me to read aloud with more sounds.
But who would have expected that within two days, the Sidai died tragically directly at the door of his house, with a dagger stuck in his chest. Moreover, his face was filled with fear, and his eyes were wide open.
The mouth was also half open, and blood was even oozing from the ears.
To say that this Si Dai was originally a close confidant of Feng Duan, his power in Zheng Yi during this period could be said to be at its peak.
Unexpectedly, he would suffer such a violent death. Although the people could not sympathize with him, they were still horrified when they thought that he was really killed by some ghost.
As a result, under the high-pressure rule of Feng Duan, inexplicable "ghost killings" have now been added, and the people of Zheng Yi feel even more frightened. Naturally, few people are willing to go out after being trembling.
.
After Fan Li heard the news, he roughly understood why Si Zhuan suddenly chose to withdraw his troops?
It turned out that his father died suddenly and suddenly! As his son, Si Zhuan couldn't fight anymore after hearing the news, so he hurriedly withdrew his troops and rushed back to the city.
As the head of the Si family, Si Dai suffered such a bizarre death, and the Si family would not give up.
Therefore, Si Zhuan expressed to Feng Duan that he hoped Feng Duan could take charge of the overall situation for them, detect the big case as soon as possible, and seek justice for the Si family.
However, after Toyodan ordered a search throughout the city, he still found nothing.
After Feng Duan learned the news, he immediately summoned Shu Niu.
Si Dai's death inevitably made Feng Duan feel sad as a rabbit dies and a fox dies, and something hurts its own kind.
The most important thing is that Bo You's ghost still refuses to stop after killing Si Dai. Now there are new rumors in the market, saying that the next person Bo You wants to kill is Feng Duan!
No matter how hard Rao Shifeng Duan believed these nonsense, he could not help but feel fear in his heart.
Shu Niu saw Feng Duan pacing back and forth in the hall, feeling anxious, so he said:
"Master Boshi! You don't need to take these nonsense to heart at all!"
"How can I not be concerned that Si Dai, as the head of the Si clan, could die tragically directly at the door of his own house, and the death was so miserable and horrifying. The key is that to this day, there is no trace of it! ...
...This theory of ghosts is certainly not true, but it must have been done by someone secretly! Now you are so openly threatening to kill me, how can I just sit back and wait for death!"
Afterwards, Shu Niu also thought about it for a while.
"Lord Boshi, we have controlled the situation over the years and have made many enemies. If someone wants to target the Si family and Lord Boshi, it is actually quite normal. The villain thinks that we only need to step up our defense, and my lord has tried to go out as little as possible in the past few days.
Once this period of time passes smoothly, everything will be fine!"
When Feng Duan heard this, he couldn't help but sneer.
"Since this person can be so pretentious and easily kill the Sidai of one of the six ministers, do you think I can be safe just by staying in seclusion? If things can be so simple, then what do I have to worry about?"
"This uncle's ghost matter, if it is not solved for a day, I will not have peace for a day! Shu Niu, now the entire Ji clan is under your control. Such a big thing has happened in Zheng Yi, you can't
Nothing to do all day long!”
Upon hearing this, Shu Niu immediately bowed deeply and replied respectfully:
"The Shuniu knows that he has a heavy responsibility. However, the theory of ghosts has been circulated among the people for a long time. Before, everyone thought that such weird theories were not worth mentioning. Who would have thought that it would actually cause such a big problem now?
The basket is coming, but if you want to block the mouths of these people now, I'm afraid it's too late..."
"Alas! I'm not asking you to cover up the ghost story! I'm asking you to investigate what's going on! How did Si Dai die? Who is that person who is pretending to be a ghost in the middle of the night?
"
"Yes, yes, yes, Shu Niu understands, Shu Niu will go down to investigate..."
After Shu Niu left, Feng Duan also carefully recalled the death of Boyou back then. Thinking that Boyou himself died in an extremely strange and bizarre way, he couldn't help but secretly thought:
"Could it be that... there are really ghosts in this world? No, no, no!... Someone must be deliberately pretending to be a ghost. I have gone through several dynasties and Uncle Zheng has changed several times. How can I be frightened by such weird things!..."
Therefore, Toyodan immediately strengthened the defense around the mansion, and did not dare to slack off at all.
After Fan Li learned about the situation at the market and sheep shop, he came to the door of Si Mansion. At this time, he saw that their door was closed tightly and the street was deserted. The feeling of depression and desolation was chilling.
As a result, it was even more difficult for Fan Li to know the specific situation of the Si family. At this moment, he saw Si Zhuan coming out of the gate dressed in clothes and wearing filial piety. Fan Li suddenly felt strange and followed him.
Si Zhuan arrived at Feng Duan's mansion, but due to his heavy filial piety, it was inconvenient to visit, so he did not enter the gate, but asked his disciples to go and report.
Not long after, Feng Duan did not come out, but sent someone to tell him:
"Your Majesty has just passed away. I will not care about withdrawing the troops without permission. Someone will be sent to control the three armies in the future. Sir Si can just go back and arrange the funeral!"
Si Zhuan said:
"The death of my late father is very strange. Zhuan hopes to discuss it with Mr. Boshi again!"
"My lord has been feeling unwell recently and it is inconvenient to see guests. He will feel better in a few days and will definitely pay a visit in person!"
Si Dai was one of the six ministers of the Zheng Kingdom and the head of the Si clan. Logically speaking, Feng Duan should have gone to express his condolences.
However, just because Toyodan was afraid of another rumor at this moment, he did not dare to go out easily, so he had to excuse himself by claiming to be sick.
Si Zhuan had no choice but to turn back, and Fan Li followed him all the way back to Si's Mansion. After watching for a while, he realized that there was nothing famous here, so he was about to leave when he suddenly saw someone who looked like another Zheng Guozhengqing.
The man appeared unexpectedly on the street, and stepped forward to knock on the door as if nothing had happened.
——
Chapter 424_Boyou’s prophecy
Fan Li didn't know this person either, but he didn't know that what he was seeing now was the famous Zi Chan.
Zichan had already been banned by Fengduan, but now that Fengduan had no time to take care of himself, Zichan asked to go to express his condolences. Fengduan thought it was okay, so he agreed.
After all, Zichan and Sidai were quite decent on the surface.
When Chu Zichan and Feng Duan were fighting for good and evil, it was Si Dai who stepped in to reconcile the two. Even this reconciliation work was originally instructed by Feng Duan.
Nowadays, all kinds of high-pressure rule and various terrorist incidents in Zheng Yi are emerging one after another. As the previous minister in power, Zichan should have stayed as simple as possible and protected himself wisely.
But he had no fear and came to express his condolences alone.
When Si Zhuan went out to greet him, he felt flattered when he saw Dr. Zichan coming in person, so he immediately ordered someone to welcome Dr. Zichan into the house.
The gate of the Si family's residence was the first place where Si Dai was found murdered. Now, it has been cleaned several times by the servants, and there is no trace of the discovery site for a long time.
Fan Li knew that there was no further use in staying here, so he followed the direction Li Ran told him before leaving and found the wine shop first.
Not long after, Owl Wings arrived after hearing the news. When they saw the token displayed by Fan Li, they took him to a darker room.
"Nowadays, there is a large-scale search for Mr. Ziming's empaths in the city, so we have to be careful! This little brother should be the new follower of Mr. Ziming, right?"
Owl Yi rushed back to Zheng Yi from Ye Yi, which actually only lasted three or two months. When he left last time, he had never seen Fan Li, so he said this.
"I'm Fan Li. I've been following Mr. for a while!"
The two exchanged names, and Fan Li got straight to the point.
"Sir, do you know what's going on with this uncle's ghostly murder?"
Owlwing shook his head.
