Daming King of Punishment
Page 258
In the blink of an eye, there were bursts of exclamations from upstairs.The girls in Zuimenglou shouted like crazy at this moment, which has proved that the secret passage here of Mengniang obviously leads to those rooms.
After the officers and soldiers came back from the secret passage, seeing their slightly flushed faces, they knew that what they just saw was always a beautiful scene.
"Is it leading to the girls' rooms upstairs?" Song Wuya didn't ask further, just to confirm his guess.
The officers and soldiers nodded, and then said: "Behind this entrance, there is a small room, and there is a secret passage leading to the underground in this room!"
"A secret passage leading to the underground?" Song Wuya was startled, this was something he had never thought of before. "Enter now to view!"
The officers and soldiers prepared torches, and directly organized a group of people to enter it, and Song Wuya followed them into it.
The secret passage was very dark, Song Wuya could hardly see anything, only a fire in front of his eyes.The damp earthy smell made everyone very uncomfortable.This secret passage is very rough, and after some simple methods are used to strengthen it, there is nothing else.And the secret passage is very narrow, only two people can barely pass through.
He didn't know exactly what such a secret passage appeared in Zuimenglou, and what it was used for.But at this moment, he knows the direction that this secret passage leads to, it leads to the street in front of Zuimenglou.
The secret road is very long, I don't know how long I walked, and I haven't found the end.
The soldiers in front walked forward quickly, they were not worried about any mechanism or danger here.Now they just want to leave this secret passage as soon as possible, this place is really too aggrieved.
"My lord! There is a corpse here!" Suddenly, the officers and soldiers in front shouted loudly.
Song Wuya hurried to the front and saw the corpse clearly by the light of the fire.This is a man with a very strong body, and the fatal scar is a dagger stuck in his chest.When Song Wuya saw this dagger, he was shocked again. It was exactly the same dagger as the three murder weapons he had seen before.
"It should only take a few days for this person to die here." Song Wuya roughly judged the time of the deceased's death. The clothes on this person's body were already wet. He must have been lying in this secret passage for at least a whole day. .
Looking at the corpse, he wondered for a while, and suddenly thought of whether the deceased could be the murderer!
But if he was the murderer, who killed him?
"Mengniang!" Song Wuya was shocked, he heard that before he went straight to Mengniang's room and saw Mengniang's panicked look, now seeing the corpse, everything seemed to be clear.
Song Wuya began to examine the corpse, and soon found something in his arms.This thing is nothing but a dagger that is exactly the same as that stuck in his chest.Looking at this dagger, the strong man who bought five daggers that Song Wuya heard from the shopkeeper earlier may be this person.And counting this dagger, all five daggers he bought appeared.
"Carry out the corpse immediately, and find the girls and turtles in Zuimeng Building to recognize the corpse!" Song Wuya asked two soldiers to carry the corpse out, and then continued to go deep into the secret passage.
Soon the soldiers in front stopped, and they looked back at Song Wuya with helpless expressions on their faces.
"My lord, there is no road ahead, it has collapsed." Song Wuya couldn't help sighing at the soldier's reply.
With a dignified expression, he faced the same situation twice.At this moment, he has decided that Zuimenglou and Wuliangjiao are inseparable, and Mengniang must be an important member of it.
"Find tools, dig him up for me!" Song Wuya ordered loudly, this time he didn't want to just give up, after all, this was a huge clue.
Once the clues are found along this secret path, it is possible to find the secret of Wuliangjiao here.
Back on the ground, Song Wuya let out a long breath.Bai Zhuo, who was waiting outside, saw a dead body being carried out earlier, and his heart was in his throat.
"Brother Wu Ya, what did you find below, and what happened to this male corpse?"
Song Wuya walked towards the outside of the house, and replied: "This may be the murderer we are looking for. This person is probably killed by Mengniang. The secret passage below collapsed again, and we have no way to find the end of the secret passage. But this time we dig this secret passage again, we must find the secret of Wuliangjiao under this secret passage."
"Mengniang! How do you explain this man?" Song Wuya sternly asked Mengniang, the corpse had already been placed in the hall.
Everyone up and down Zuimeng Building has been called to the front, and everyone is here looking at the corpse.But for a long time, no one said that they had seen this man, and no one knew him.
Song Wuya had already thought of this point, since this man entered through a secret passage, it was reasonable for them not to see it.
Mengniang burst into tears without saying a word, facing Song Wuya's questioning, she just cried.
Song Wuya frowned tightly. At this moment, he felt that the clues of this case had reached the last juncture.He had to admire the Wuliang Tianzun of Wuliangjiao. There were so many methods he used to collect money hidden in the entire provincial capital.This Zuimenglou is obviously one of them, and now Song Wuya is facing their crimes, sorting out everything he found in his heart.
In the Ciling Nunnery outside the city, the accumulated money disappeared through secret passages.The secret road collapsed, and the officers and soldiers were still investigating, but there was nothing to gain in a few days.There are so many casinos in the city, and they are their main means of making money.Coupled with the Zuimenglou discovered today, these three things together can be said to have earned all the money of men, women, old and young in the city.
"Brother Wu Ya, why are you being polite to her? If she doesn't speak at this time, you have to find a way to make her speak! So many people died in the city, and she deserves death, so why hesitate about her." Bai Zhuo looked at Mengniang angrily, and also saw that Song Wuya had not ordered Mengniang to be interrogated, and immediately reminded Song Wuya.
In an extraordinary time, it was an extraordinary time. Although Bai Zhuo's words were harsh, they were not useless.
After Mengniang heard Bai Zhuo's words, she still didn't say a word, obviously she didn't intend to speak.This made Song Wuya feel that it was a pity that so many people were willing to make such a huge sacrifice for the sake of Wuliangjiao and that Wuliang Tianzun.
"Mengniang, let me ask you one last time, should I tell you or not?" Song Wuya said coldly.
Hearing this, Mengniang still didn't respond.At this moment, Bai Zhuo couldn't hold back anymore, and immediately shouted loudly: "Come on, hit me!"
With this order, Song Wuya didn't stop him, those officers and soldiers directly pushed Mengniang to the ground, picked up the latch by the door, and started to fight immediately.
"Wait!" Just as the door bolt was about to fall, a shout came from outside Zuimenglou, and a group of figures rushed into the hall.
These people were none other than the governor of the provincial government who had just left the city to look for Chen Zongbing's transfer and his servants.
"Your Excellency is really timely!" Seeing His Excellency, Bai Zhuo snorted coldly.
It is true that the Lord of the Provincial Government came in a timely manner, it was before, and it is now again.The officers and soldiers stopped what they were doing, and stood aside, looking at the governor who entered.
"You two young masters, what are you doing here?" The governor entered inside and asked Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo directly.
Hearing this, Song Wuya felt ridiculous in his heart.If the provincial governor didn't know what they were doing here, then he wouldn't be here.
"We found a secret passage in Mengniang's room, and found a corpse in the secret passage. I suspect that the deceased is the murderer who caused these recent murders, so Mengniang can't get rid of the suspicion. Even if the person who killed the murderer is not Mengniang, that Mengniang also knows what's going on. It's just that Mengniang kept her mouth shut, so we are going to use some means." Song Wuya briefly explained what happened here.
After hearing this, the governor just nodded his head.
Looking at his appearance, Bai Zhuo was furious, and asked another question in a sarcastic manner.
"Didn't the Lord Provincial Government go outside the city? Why did you come back so soon?"
"Oh! Mr. Chen was so happy, he directly agreed to my request, so we came back together." The governor of the provincial government still had a smile on his face, and answered Bai Zhuo's words.
Hearing him say that, Song Wuya was surprised.
"What? Chen Zongbing also entered the city? Then how many people did he lend you?" Song Wuya was very surprised about this matter. Chen Zongbing brought a lot of people here, how could he leave it behind? Those soldiers went straight into the city.
Before the lord of the provincial government could answer, a hearty laugh came from behind the lord of the provincial government.
"Haha! This must be Mr. Song! Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. You are indeed very personable!"
The visitor had a masculine look, without a beard, holding a good iron sword in his hand, standing in front of everyone, mighty and extraordinary.
"Mr. Chen brought more than 300 people here. Mr. Song borrowed more than a hundred people a few days ago. Now the governor of the provincial government wants to borrow people from me again. If he borrows people like this, I will become a bachelor. What are you doing outside the city, why not follow him directly into the city!" Chen Zongbing explained to Song Wuya with a smile.
Hearing this, Song Wuya murmured in his heart, what is Chen Zongbing's intention.He clearly brought a lot of people, why did he say that he only brought more than 300 people at this time.Chen Zongbing stood in front of Song Wuya without giving him any hints, as if that was the case.
However, Song Wuya chose to trust Chen Zongbing at this time, and did not ask more about it.

"That's right. As soon as Chen Zongbing heard that Mr. Song wanted to employ someone, he immediately dispatched him without saying a word. He even mounted the horse himself." The governor of the provincial government praised him with a smile on his face.
