Chapter 3 Secret Words
Sixty-one people died, the body was broken, the scene was fierce, and the evil spirit was noticed by Zhui Xiepan, but the strange thing was that the scene was far from the amount of bleeding that matched the "Sixty-one Life".
"Killing people and dismembering corpses and torture corpses are indeed what evil spirits like to do. But collecting human blood is not."
"The little flag is very clear and I admire you very much! It seems that the lives of the 61-member family of Qi's family are not harmed by evil spirits but someone else?"
"Haha, Wang Xiaoling, I have never said that the death of these people has nothing to do with evil spirits. Besides, it is too early to draw conclusions now. Let the brothers hurry up and finish the process. You must be careful and you cannot let go of everything inside and outside. Also, you have to take care of the scene of the Qi Mansion to me. Except for our brothers from Xuan Qingwei, the rest of the people are not allowed to enter without my permission. In addition, you can secretly check the Qi family's background."
"Check the truth of Qi's family? Why is this?" Wang Xiaoling didn't quite understand Shen Hao's purpose.
"A family that does a cloth business and has a large stall should be very frequent. Isn't it safer and more convenient to store the money in the money house? Is it necessary to deposit millions of cash at home? This family is probably not simple."
"Xiaoqi is meticulous and has a better understanding of his subordinates."
"Okay, stop flattering. You hurry up and deal with it. I'll go back first. For such a big case, I have to report it to the General Banner."
......
After leaving Qi Mansion, Shen Hao did not stay in Wuyang City for more time, and directly returned to Licheng through the teleportation array in the city.
Unlike Wuyang City, Licheng is one of the several major cities in the west of the Jingji Dynasty, and only in the big cities can the Xuanqing Guard Station be stationed.
Shen Hao served as a seventh-rank small flag official in the garrison office. He was the lowest-ranking official position in the Xuanqing Guard, but he had a lot of people under his jurisdiction.
Ten Xuanqing Wei strong men, plus two school orders, and fifty soldiers, this formed a small flag camp, and Shen Hao was the small flag official.
Above the small flag officials are the seventh-rank general flag officials. Generally speaking, there will be three to four small flag camps under the command of a general flag official.
The general flag goes up from the sixth rank to the hundred households, which governs the three general flags. The sixth rank to the hundred households are also governed by the two hundred households.
The Xuanqing Guard Office in Licheng is a full-staff member of the sixth rank official, responsible for all special affairs in the radius of 3,000 miles and 17 cities.
......
Compared with the Chengzhong County Government, the public house of the Xuanqing Vocational Office in Licheng seems very shabby, and there are not even two stone beasts in the courtyard at the entrance of the courtyard.
"General Chen Qi, my subordinates have something to report."
"Come in."
Shen Hao pushed the door open and went in. A middle-aged man with a fat, round and shortness was sitting in the small public hall, who was writing to him at his desk. This person was named Chen Tianwen, the chief official, and Shen Hao's direct subordinate Shangguan.
"Mr. Chen, I've seen the case reported in Wuyangcheng this morning."
"Tell me, what's the situation?"
"It is a wealthy family in Wuyang City. The family and the servants all died in total. The bodies were shattered. Zhui Xiepan found the remaining weak evil spirits at the scene, which showed that they were third-grade evil spirits."
Chen Tianwen, who heard the "third-grade evil spirit" at the desk, raised his head and looked at Shen Hao, but did not interrupt Shen Hao.
He heard Shen Hao continue, "But although Zhui Xie Pan sensed the aura of the third-grade evil spirit, no one was killed in Wuyang City that night except Qi Mansion. There is no record of the evil spirits around Wuyang City in the last three months. Moreover, the 61 people were smashed to pieces at the scene, but only had a small amount of blood. I feel that this is not simple."
"The blood volume does not match the corpse? Are you sure the third-grade evil spirit sensed on the evil plate?"
"Subordinate."
"This is not the style of the third-grade evil spirit. Either the perception of the evil spirit is wrong, or the attack range of the evil spirit is limited. Shen Hao, tell me what you think."
Shen Hao thought about the words before saying, "General Banner, my subordinates thought that the case of the Qi family's 61-member family could be related to that group of people."
"That group of people?" Chen Tianwen was slightly stunned at first, and soon thought of something. He leaned forward and his face became a little serious in an instant. He pressed his voice and said anxiously: "What have you found?"
"I found this in the Qi Mansion." Shen Hao said that, and put the piece of paper he had found in the Qi family's kitchen in front of Chen Tianwen in front of him.
Chen Tianwen did not touch it with his hands, but leaned closer and took a closer look, frowned and said, "Fragments of the talisman paper?"
"Yes, if it is not bad as expected, it should be a fragment of the evil Yin Talisman."
"Oh?" Chen Tianwen nodded calmly, then waved his hand and the fragments of the talisman paper on the table burned out of thin air, and an extremely subtle wave of mana flashed from the fragment. Although the time was short, Chen Tianwen clearly felt that the characteristic of this wisp of mana fluctuation was gloomy.
"It's really an evil Yin Talisman! Shen Hao, your eyesight is really great!"
Only by relying on the naked eye, you can tell what kind of talisman this is on the fragments of the fingernail size. This ability is not simple.
"The general flag is too much, but I only look familiar."
"Don't be modest." Chen Tianwen stood up from his seat, walked to the window and closed the only open window. Then he turned around and continued, "Who else knows about this except you and me?"
"Don't worry, I discovered this fragment alone, and then I reported it to you directly, no third person except you."
"very good!"
Chen Tianwen patted Shen Hao's shoulder with satisfaction, took two steps in the narrow public room, and then sat back on the chair and remained silent for a long time, as if thinking about something.
"In this way, you take my warrant and go to the arsenal to get three third-grade thunder talismans in case of emergency, and then cover the surroundings of Wuyang City on the grounds of thoroughly investigating the "third-grade evil spirits". I will also separate this case from the rest of the cases so that you will not be disturbed by others. But you must ensure that you can get results before the sixth day of next month, do you understand?"
Next month’s sixth day? Ten days left.
After thinking a little, Shen Hao understood why Chen Tianwen had to set the time on the sixth day of next month, because the seventh day of next month was a regular case meeting of the garrison.
"Please rest assured that the chief flag will not miss the chief flag."
Chen Tianwen nodded, grabbed the pen on the table again, and waved casually that Shen Hao could step down.
However, Shen Hao bowed and said, "General Banner, I have something to report to you."
"explain."
"In the case of Qi family's family destruction, a batch of unknown money was also seized. There are many doubts. The subordinates are now unable to take care of their clones. I also asked the general flag to provide help."
"Ha, is this really the case? How much?"
"Seventy-five thousand taels."
"......Let's do this. I'll send someone to take over this batch of money tomorrow. You can concentrate on investigating the family-killing case, so don't be distracted."
"Thank you, General Banner, for your help. I'll take your leave now."
"Well, go down, be careful about everything. Also, you don't look good. After going to the arsenal, go to the alchemy room and report my name to get a small Peiyuan Pill. Don't get tired of yourself. I'm waiting for you to help me with the scene."
"Yes, thank you for your kindness."
......
Shen Hao immediately had a smile on his face when he came out of the public room.
