You Jianghu people really know how to play

Originally, it was covered with snow-cold air, but unexpectedly the horse's hooves stepped over the snow line, and it became warmer as it went south.

Huilong Town is located in the lower reaches of the Yulan River, at the junction of the Yulan River and its tributary, Qingyuchuan.The land where rivers and rivers meet is fertile and flat, suitable for planting and building ports.Although Huilong Town is just a town, its bustling and bustling is no less than that of the surrounding city walls.Qingyuchuan is calmer and smaller than the Yulan River, and large ships cannot travel together. There are all kinds of flowers and trees on both sides of the river. Although the river is not wide, the bottom of the river is deep. The fish and shrimp are very delicious, and it is a well-known good place.Therefore, Huilong Town is not only prosperous in commerce and flourishing in agriculture and fishery, but also a very favorite place for literati.

It is also because of the complicated flow of people that once a major case occurs in Huilong Town, it often causes headaches for the local government officials.It is difficult to search and arrest.

At the post station outside Huilong Town, Sima Feng also had a headache.

"What kind of weird case is this? Ah Si said it horribly. I thought it was such a difficult thing—wasn't it just a dead person!" The matter has not been resolved yet, the people from the Shaoyi League are coming, and the person surnamed Xin in Xinjiabao has not been cleaned up yet, why do you ask me to come back! This kind of thing can be solved by raising your eyebrows!"

The middle-aged man standing in front of him raised his eyebrows and slapped the table hard: "Nizi!"

The table shook, and one leg collapsed with half of the tabletop.

Sima Liangren only had this one son, and since he was a child, he was afraid that he would be too arrogant and indulge him, so he always adhered to the line of strict father and loving mother, and never gave Sima Feng any good looks.Sima Feng looked at the table, then at his father, with an extremely calm expression: "What did I go against?"

"You have forgotten one of the most important rules of the Sima family's walk in the rivers and lakes: neutrality, not taking sides." Sima Liangren finished the demonstration, and he can calmly communicate with his son, "You, Mu Ya, and that weird child Tian Ku Forget it! The Sima family, Yingbeishe and Jiezilou have always followed this code in order to gain a firm foothold in the arena. We are not from any party, and we will not be the help of any party. Only in this way can we stand firm fall."

Sima Feng didn't realize who "Mu Ya" was for a while, but then he quickly remembered that it was a word his father gave Chi Yebai, no one used it, only Sima Liangren himself talked about it.He thought for a while, and realized that what his father was talking about might be about the incident where he, Chi Yebai, Tian Ku and other young people from the rivers and lakes all questioned Xin Jiabao after the fire in the Shaoyi League.

He did this matter frankly, and naturally he was not afraid of being reprimanded by Sima Liangren, so he showed his expressionless face to the end.

"And this time. You went to Lingyong City to solve the zombie incident. Why did you get involved with Xinjiabao and Shaoyi League? The zombie incident concerns both countries. According to family rules, you should stop immediately Take action and report to me as quickly as possible..."

"That was in the past. Now I can make all the decisions. You have given me this position. I am the head of the Sima family." Sima Feng interrupted his father.

Sima Liangren was furious again: "I am your father!!!"

The table cracked in half again, and this time it couldn't stand upright, and they fell down one after another.

Sima Feng immediately realized that it was extremely unwise to entangle his father in this matter.This man passed on the position of head of the family to himself, but he always established his majesty as a father. He couldn't compete with him, and he couldn't fight him, so he had to swallow his anger. "Father, don't gossip, how do you know that the zombie incident is related to Di Ren? We just found out." Sima Feng asked.

Sima Liangren pulled out a wooden thorn from his palm, hummed and said, "The spies from Yingbeishe sent me the news after you returned to Lingyong City."

Sima Feng was taken aback, and immediately turned to look at Chi Yebai.

The father and son were arguing in the living room, Chi Yebai and the others stood outside and guarded the whole time.All the soldiers at the post station recognized Sima Liangren's waist badge, knowing that he was a big man, and no one dared to disturb him.

Chi Yebai was still dressed in crescent white, and his handsome face was even more calm. After seeing Sima Feng's eyes, he nodded slightly.

Sima Feng held his breath in his chest and couldn't breathe out.

Seeing his son staring at Chi Yebai, Sima Liangren was even more dissatisfied: "Mu Ya did the right thing. If he doesn't accompany you, I really don't worry. You are too impulsive, you have to think about everything. Jianghu is Jianghu. , A temple is a temple, don’t think that you can challenge the face of the emperor if you have great ability. This is a matter between countries, and the King of Dongyuan has evil intentions hidden, so you shouldn’t try to solve it yourself.”

Sima Feng was so angry that he took out his fan and kept fanning it.

The Sima family has left the court since Sima Liangren's generation, but before that, his grandfather and grandfather were all ministers under the emperor's feet.Sima Liangren didn't like court affairs, Sima Feng's grandfather knew his nature and didn't feel embarrassed, he planned to get away cleanly, and when he arrived at Sima Liangren's place, he finally walked away neatly and beautifully.But after leaving the temple, the temple affairs are still being sought from time to time, and the Sima family is closely related to the matter of criminal names, so the relationship is still disconnected.

Sima Feng knew that what his father said was right, once he was biased, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of the people above.

Putting away the fan, he left without saying a word.

Sima Liangren was so angry that his face turned red, and he shouted: "Mu Ya! Follow him!"

Sima Feng left the post station, rode his horse around the road twice, his anger subsided a little, and walked towards Huilong Town.

Chi Yebai chased after him, and said slowly, "The deceased is still at the corpse's house. Because of the tragic death and the fact that he is a famous person, the family members prevent him from dealing with it casually. They are all waiting for you."

"Did I say I'm going?" Sima Feng said angrily.

Chi Yebai looked at the three big characters "Huilong Town" on the big rock in front of him, and remained silent.

The two sat down on two horses, one red and one white, and they had arrived at the edge of Huilong town.Sima Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly turned around and supported Chi Yebai's chin with the fan in his hand.

Chi Yebai's expression remained unchanged, he raised his hand and knocked down the fan.

There seemed to be paintings on the fan, although it had been folded up, the color mottled could be vaguely seen.

... Which beauty did this guy get the fan from?Chi Yebai simply couldn't understand: after the two left Lingyong City, they rushed to Huilong Town non-stop, without sleep on the road, and Sima Feng still had time to ask for another incense fan? !

Sima Feng raised his leg and kicked the fan up.He moved neatly, still sitting firmly on the horse, seeing that Chi Yebai was also trying to grab the fan, the two of them went through dozens of moves.

"Xiaobai, I'm not happy." Sima Feng said, "Say something nice to me..."

While he was speaking, Chi Yebai suddenly clenched his fists at Sima Feng's palm.Sima Feng was waiting for his move, with five fingers forming claws, he grabbed the back of his hand and pulled him towards him.

"You know you can't deal with me with this move..." Sima Feng swept away the previous boredom and laughed.

Unexpectedly, Chi Yebai's hand was caught by him, but the other hand narrowly caught the fan.With a flick of his fingertips, the fan turned and fell into his hand.Sima Feng couldn't cry, but Chi Yebai immediately grabbed his palm with his backhand, and then with the fan in his other hand, he hit his ribs steadily and accurately.

This was Sima Feng's door, he screamed in pain, half of his body was numb, and he fell off the horse.

The bay red horse lightened, knowing that its master had fallen, and quickly turned around to circle around him.

Chi Yebai also came to him, looking down at him.Sima Feng saw that his expression was still vaguely excited, and remembered that this was the first time Chi Yebai had won against him since the two of them fought countless times, so he couldn't help laughing.

"Excellent, Xiaobai." He rubbed his ribs and slowly sat up.

Chi Yebai unfolded the fan in his hand, but found that there were no fragrant flowers and beauties on it, but a stretch of mountains and two poems dripping with ink.

"There are thousands of generations in the world, but you only know heroes with your eyes."

He was slightly taken aback.This is the first time I saw such a poem on Sima Feng's fan. "Isn't this Shi Yisheng's poem? You also have such leisurely feelings, so you can't see it."

"These two lines are the best in this poem." Sima Feng stood up and lay on his horse, trying to climb up, but one hand and foot was still numb, and it was a bit difficult.

Chi Yebai recognized Sima Feng's own handwriting at a glance, and said with a sneer, "You still understand, okay? Why don't you tell me how to do it?"

He climbed for a while, climbed onto the horse's back in a ridiculous posture, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Hero, the hero is myself."

Chi Yebai smiled, turned his horse's head and walked forward.

Sima Feng: "...don't you ask me who the other one is?"

Chi Yebai: "I'm not interested."

Sima Feng: "The one who knows heroes is you."

Chi Yebai: "..."

Sima Feng caught up with him, and stretched his arms while saying, "Who else is there besides you, right?"

Chi Yebai answered the words calmly: "And your Qiaoqiao girl, Su Junzi's luthier, Xiaohong who sells water, rice and rouge on the street next door to your house, Du Shiniang, the flower leader of Yanyulou, and the owner of Feifengshan Tea House. Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Cai, Xiaozhen from the study, Miss Mao from Jiezilou, and Song Lianlian from my Yingbei House."

He paused, and his tone suddenly became fierce: "Lianlian is my righteous sister, don't mess around."

Sima Feng himself didn't think of so many people, so he nodded when Chi Yebai said something, and he couldn't help laughing until the end.

Chi Yebai was furious: "What are you laughing at!"

"It's hard for you." Sima Feng patted him on the shoulder, "It's hard for you to use your good memory to help me remember so many girls."

Chi Yebai was stunned for a moment, his face was reddish, and he was about to get angry when Sima Feng rode his horse into Huilong Town with a long smile, and quickly blended into the crowd of the market.

The past few days in Huilong Town have been rather uneventful, but the business of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples has never been better.

The reason is that Huang Daren, the richest man in the city, died.

Huang Daren's family is rich and rich, from the feet of the emperor to the bottom of the three religions, he has brothers who worship him.There are rumors that when he entered Beijing, the prime minister went out of the city to greet him in person, and even the prince swept the table to welcome him.The rumors were exaggerated, and naturally there were flaws.But a flaw is a flaw, big face is big face, Huang Daren is too rich, so whatever he says is right if he is rich.

He died in the middle of the night a few days ago, and his death was miserable. It is said that he was stabbed hundreds of times, blood flowed all over the ground, and the whole house was flooded.

"Hundreds of knives?" Sima Feng got off his horse, and couldn't help laughing, "Then it won't be chopped into meat?"

He and Chi Yebai had already arrived outside the gate of Huang Daren's mansion, the policemen from Huilong Town were waiting outside, seeing Sima Feng's identity clearly revealed, all of them were happy and raised their hands in a salute.The Sima family is very famous. Although Sima Feng is young, he has also received a lot of respect because of his name.He smoothly introduced Chi Yebai to everyone.When everyone heard that Ying Bei She was the head of the family, and saw Chi Yebai's handsome appearance, chic and unrestrained, they naturally became more eager.

The place where Huang Daren died was his study. Due to the cold weather, the body did not rot after several days, but the body was mottled and looked very ugly.

Sima Feng untied his leather bag, took out his thin gloves, and walked in.

The corpse lay horizontally in front of the desk, and the ground was in a mess, but it could be seen that they were all traces of the fighting that day, and there were no new messy footprints.Sima Feng praised in a low voice: "Not bad."

He had seen many murder scenes, most of which were trampled and moved beyond recognition by the detectives investigating the case.Sima Feng was checking each one according to the report of the policeman beside him, when he suddenly heard Chi Yebai walking in.

"What are you doing here, don't get your clothes and shoes dirty." Sima Feng said.

Chi Yebai coughed lightly: "What did you find?"

Sima Feng raised his head and saw a young man in black clothes standing among the arresting officers. He was thin, but his eyes were eager.He wears a wide smock around his chest, which is the attire of Wu Zuo.Chi Yebai also saw him, and was a little surprised to see that he was already a master at such a young age.

"How much is it?" Sima Feng asked him.

"A total of 89 knives." The man was thin and thin, but his voice was very loud and timid, and he spoke logically, "The knife is a meat cleaver three inches wide and one foot long. It is very sharp and has no damage. It should be a new knife. The fatal wounds were concentrated in Huang Daren's neck and left chest, with a total of 23 knives. The remaining 66 knives were all concentrated in various parts of the body, and seven of them were located in Huang Daren's lower body. After inspection and analysis, Huang Daren's cause of death was Both the throat and the heart were cut, not because of excessive blood loss. Among the 89 cuts, more than half were caused after death. In addition, all the cut angles of the cuts are almost the same, and there may be only one murderer.”

After Wu Zuo finished speaking, Sima Feng and Chi Yebai looked up at him.

The young man was very calm when he spoke, but when he finished speaking, he noticed that the expressions of the two people became tense, and their necks shrank.

"You speak very well." Sima Feng agreed, "Very good."

The surrounding policemen looked at the two of them Yin Yin, and also wanted to learn something from this corpse.

Sima Feng's unhappiness was gone, he turned his head to look at Chi Yebai, but Chi Yebai did not stop him, and even made a "please" gesture.

"The body was stabbed 89 times, what does that mean?" Sima Feng asked.

A policeman quickly replied: "If he can stab 89 times, this person must be very strong."

"Yes, what else?" Sima Feng asked.

"Is he a man with a bad temper?" A policeman answered in a low voice, "Who can be so ruthless?"

"Not necessarily." Sima Feng didn't show mercy, and directly denied his statement, "Once a usually gentle person is offended, or the resentment accumulated for many years suddenly explodes, 89 knives is not difficult."

"Is there more than $89?"

"Of course." Chi Yebai answered, "Last year it happened in..."

Sima Feng quickly stopped his divergence, and focused the attention of the police on Huang Daren: "The 89 dollars can also tell us that the person who killed Huang Daren was very, very angry at Huang Daren."

At this time, the master spoke timidly again: "Also, this man is very good at using knives."

Everyone looked at him.

"This is a new knife, and even stabbed 89 times, all of which avoided bones and penetrated into the flesh without any damage to the tip of the knife." Wu Zuo said, "He is good at using knives and is familiar with the structure of bones and flesh. The murderer should be a Butcher."

As soon as the words came out, the police officers nodded in agreement.Sima Feng and Chi Yebai looked at each other and frowned slightly.

"It's not necessarily a butcher who is good at using a knife to familiarize himself with the human body." Chi Yebai's voice was clear and his inner strength was strong, overpowering the commotion present, "The same goes for Wu Zuo."

The young man was startled and immediately lowered his head deeply.

Sima Feng coughed: "Doctor is also possible."

The police officers looked at each other and asked, "Who is that?"

"It's impossible to determine who it is based on these two points alone." Sima Feng squatted beside Huang Daren's body, and lifted the white cloth covering his face, "There are other clues, such as here."
