"Is it Lu Hong?" Huang Feng's face was ashen and his whole body was shaking.
Li Xuan shook his head: "If it were him, he would just refuse to pay. Why bother to intercept and kill him after giving him the money? Wouldn't that be unnecessary?"
"Who could that be?" The identity of the murderer was almost revealed, but Huang Feng still retained the last bit of hope. He couldn't believe that human nature could be so despicable.
"It must be Xue Qiang's fault." Li Xuan said coldly.
Huang Feng seemed to be deflated. He didn't want to believe this fact, but when he thought about it carefully, Xue Qiang was the only one with the motive and possibility of committing the crime.
When he thought about Xue Qiang's greed for money, he knew that Li Xuan's analysis was probably accurate to the facts.
"But we have no evidence." Huang Feng said.
Li Xuan smiled coldly: "As long as you know that he did it, if you want evidence, you can always find it."
He stood up and walked out of the village. Huang Feng quickly grabbed him: "Li Xuan, where are you going?"
"I'm going to the Xue family manor." Li Xuan said.
"Don't be impulsive." Huang Feng was startled, "The manor's guards are very powerful..."
"I just went to report this matter to Xue Dahu. As for revenge, I am not in a hurry." Li Xuan said.
Huang Feng hesitated for a moment and finally let go. He had an intuition: only Li Xuan could properly solve the matter this time.
Seeing Li Xuan's figure disappear at the entrance of the village, Huang Feng sighed and murmured to himself: "I'm really old, it's time to hand over the village to the young people..."
When we arrived at the Xue Family Manor, it was already evening. There were wisps of smoke floating in the castle, and the aroma of the food penetrated people's noses, arousing the greed in their stomachs.
Li Xuan walked to the gate of the castle and was stopped by two guards.
"Hey, what do you do?" the guard asked.
"I am a villager in Vanilla Village. I have important matters to report to Xue Dahu." Li Xuan said neither humble nor overbearing.
He tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and maintain a calm attitude.
Of course, if there are blind people who dare to anger him, he doesn't mind a massacre.
The guard looked at him doubtfully: "Is there something important? Didn't your villagers just come here in the morning?"
"Our villagers were robbed on their way back to the village. Six died and one was injured." Li Xuan said calmly, "This is a very bad case. I think we should report it to Xue Dahu."
The guard was shocked when he heard this.
The folk customs in this neighborhood are gentle, and there are very few vicious incidents. A petty theft is already serious, let alone robbery and murder.
"Wait a moment, I'll report it right away." The guard hurried in, leaving Li Xuan waiting at the door.
Li Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the high city wall, and saw a familiar figure flashing across the wall.
The guards returned quickly and took Li Xuan inside, all the way to the Xue family's living room, where Xue Dahu and the captain of the town guard were already waiting.
Seeing the fierce-looking Xue Dahu, Li Xuan reported everything about the villagers being robbed and killed.
Hearing that such a tragedy happened in his territory, Xue Dahu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"It's such a thing. The horse thief is so arrogant." After Li Xuan finished speaking, Xue Dahu slapped the table with his hand, causing the teacup to fall to the ground.
The captain of the town guard, named Xue Tian, said angrily: "Xue Dahu, please calm down. I will lead people to investigate this matter immediately, and I will definitely get to the bottom of it."
Li Xuan looked at their expressions calmly. If he was really just a fifteen-year-old boy, he might have been deceived by their performance.
But he was once the leading Daluo Jinxian in the cosmic fairy world, and he could not lose to anyone in terms of cunning and cunning.
He could tell at a glance that both Xue Dahu and Xue Tian seemed to be hiding something.
At this time, the housekeeper Xue Qiang also walked in hastily, with a sad look on his face.
"I heard that something happened to the people in Vanilla Village. What happened?"
When Li Xuan told him what happened again, Xue Qiang said sadly: "Mr. Lu Hong just left, and something like this happened. What on earth is going on?"
These words were a bit too vicious, and he wanted to shift the responsibility to Lu Hong, covertly and covertly. Li Xuan was not going to be deceived by him, so he simply kept silent and wanted to see how far this guy could perform.
Seeing that Li Xuan didn't respond, Xue Qiang said hypocritically: "Dahu, this matter is too bad. We must find out clearly to prevent the people in the town from panicking."
Xue Dahu nodded and said: "Xue Tian, I will leave this matter to you to investigate and handle. You are given ten days to find out."
Xue Tian patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, sir, I will try my best to investigate. As long as the perpetrators are from the town, they will be arrested and brought to justice."
Xue Dahu comforted Li Xuan for a few more words and then left, leaving only Xue Qiang and Xue Tian asking about the details of the case in detail.
"Do you have any clues?" Xue Tian asked Li Xuan.
Li Xuan said: "A total of seven of our villagers were attacked and six were killed, but my father survived. Before he passed out, he said he knew who the murderer was."
As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, Xue Qiang's expression changed. He asked anxiously: "Did he say who the murderer was?"
Li Xuan shook his head: "He passed out after saying that. I don't know if he wakes up now."
"Oh..." Xue Qiang nodded thoughtfully, a cold light flashed in his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Xue Tian coughed dryly: "Don't worry, this matter will be left to me. If there is any progress in the case, I will inform you."
"Then please pay more attention." Li Xuan bowed and exited the living room.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Xue Qiang said to Xue Tian in panic: "Did you hear that there is one alive! What I said was that I told them not to leave any one alive. What should I do now?"
Xue Tian said in a deep voice: "What are you afraid of? Even if you are not dead, you will only have a few breaths left."
"The people in Vanilla Village make a living by collecting herbs. Maybe we can save him. If he tells us our names, it will be over." Xue Qiang said at a loss.
Xue Tian sneered: "Since you are so scared, you just don't stop doing anything to silence him."
"What do you mean?" Xue Qiang trembled all over.
Xue Tian made a cutting gesture and said coldly: "Isn't it just a small village? Just kill them all to avoid trouble!"
Li Xuan walked out of the manor, thinking all the way: Xue Qiang and Xue Tian must be connected, and Xue Dahu seems to know about it. In this case, should they be put in the same pot?
He deliberately revealed the news that Li Yong was not dead in order to lure the snake out of its hole. If his guess was correct, tomorrow night at the latest, the group of horse thieves would come to the village to silence him.
Li Xuan was not afraid that they would come, but that they would not come. As long as those guys dared to show up, there would be no chance of escaping.
