good man
Old Ling Wang's soul immediately left his body. The soul came to Yizhuang to check on the day. Old Ling Wang let out a startled sound, and then his soul returned to his body.
"Are you sure there are really living people living in the village? I just left my body to check. The village is overgrown with weeds, snakes, insects, rats, and ants, and there are no signs of human activity."
"I didn't see anyone from the Criminal Investigation Department in Yi Zhuang either."
Old Ling Wang's words surprised everyone present.
Several mausoleum guards from the Imperial Master's Mansion said in alarmed voices: "No, it can't be. Sometimes the night is clear... We all saw the firelight over there in Yizhuang, as if someone was lighting a fire to cook..."
"Ah Xing, we were on duty together that day, you saw it, right..."
"One day the old housekeeper also saw it..."
Several of the tomb-keepers nodded, claiming that they had indeed seen it.
King Lao Ling's face darkened: "Are you questioning my lie?"
King Lao Ling is not only a king with a different surname, but also a strong man in the late stage of the Three Realms. He has been in the upper position for a long time and is not angry. Once he gets angry, he is as heavy as a mountain and as ruthless as the ocean. His momentum is oppressive and scary. Several tomb guards immediately knelt down.
They were all over the place, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
snort.
The old King Ling snorted heavily and flicked his sleeves to collect the escaping breath. With his current status, he would not embarrass a few low-status servants.
The few guardians of the mausoleum in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion suddenly collapsed to the ground, their faces pale, but their backs were soaked in winter, and cold sweat was pouring down their faces.
"Taoist Master Jin An..." Fatty Li couldn't sit still and looked at Jin An anxiously.
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jin An raising his hand: "Fat Li, take someone to guard the entrance to the Imperial Master's tomb and guard the Imperial Master's coffin. No one is allowed to come within ten steps of the Imperial Master's coffin without me present."
"I will go to Yizhuang to find someone myself."
Fatty Li looked at Yan with a hesitant expression: "Can't the closest relatives of the Imperial Master come within ten steps?"
Jin An said sternly: "This is a special matter. In order to prevent others who know the art of disguise from taking advantage of the troubled waters while I am away, no matter who comes, they are not allowed to come near. I will kill anyone who disobeys the order first."
The last sentence was executed first and then played. Everyone in the Imperial Prefect's Office looked ugly.
At this time, a young military attache general who was about thirty years old, with a gold ribbon on his waist, a slender body, a smooth and fair face, a sharp-edged cold handsomeness, eyebrows like swords, and wearing black armor, was leading the troops of the military camp.
He looked straight at Jin An: "The tomb of my foster father was stolen, and it was within the scope of your Criminal Investigation Department's responsibilities. Your Criminal Investigation Department's poor security has led to four gangs of bandits in the capital. What's more serious is that these bandits and bandits are allowed to escape.
Can you, the Criminal Inspector, bear the serious crime of sneaking into the capital and doing evil? This is one of the three crimes;"
"My adoptive father was a great master of the dynasty. Now his body has just been laid to rest. Now, Lord Shenwu, you are relying on your martial arts skills and disrespecting the body of your adoptive father. You actually want to expose the remains of a great lord of the dynasty and not let him rest in peace. Regardless of whether it is disrespectful to the deceased or not.
You have violated the taboo of being disrespectful to important officials in the court. What kind of peace of mind do you have? This is the second of the three crimes;"
"Our foster father has just passed away, and we are grieving. Now a huge change has occurred within your scope of responsibility. Instead of showing sympathy, you have allowed your men to be arrogant and domineering, killing innocent people indiscriminately, and not allowing our closest relatives to come near to mourn.
My dear, why, do you really think that you are so powerful that you are lawless? This is the third of the three crimes."
"Since you, Marquis Shenwu, came to the cemetery, you have handled the case in an amateurish way, with amateurish techniques. You haven't had any useful suggestions for a long time. Until now, there has been no clues. The rumors among the people that Marquis Shenwu has solved the case are just rumors. They are so ridiculous that I, the general, doubt you."
The ability to handle cases is not good, and you are not qualified to be the commander of the Criminal Investigation Department, Chief Supervisor Jian! Marquis Shenwu, don’t think that everyone is afraid of you as a martial arts immortal. If you go against the will of heaven, disregard justice and morality, and go against the world,
I, the general, will still read your book in front of the Holy Lord!"
The young general has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and he has an imposing manner. As soon as he comes up, he labels Jin An and the Criminal Investigation Department as being rebellious.
Jin An didn't get angry and asked calmly: "I heard that the Imperial Master has no children, but he has two adopted sons and one adopted daughter. The older adopted son is frail and works as a civil servant in the Tiansi Supervisor, and the younger adopted son holds an important military position in the Imperial City's Forbidden Army. This is
The general has a heroic appearance and a majestic weapon, but he is General Cheng Wu, the youngest adopted son of the national adviser?"
The young general snorted loudly: "It is exactly a certain person, the second general of the Tianwu Camp of the Forbidden Army. In terms of official rank, this general is on an equal footing with the commander of the Criminal Investigation Department."
As a result, Jin An squinted and scolded him: "There is no distinction between superior and inferior. I am the Marquis of Shenwu, and a deputy general of the Tianwu Camp is worthy of gesticulating in front of me. I won't back down."
Boom!
Boom!
When a martial arts immortal is angry, even those in the pseudo-fourth realm will hate his sword. How can a secular military general who has never seen much blood withstand such a domineering momentum that is really coming out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​​​blood? He takes a few steps back.
, he retreated to King Lao Ling, and King Lao Ling held his arm secretly, thus avoiding embarrassment in public.
Cheng Wujun looked ugly at the moment, sometimes pale and sometimes livid. He opened his mouth several times to speak, but every time he looked at Jin An, his eyes were like staring into thunder, and he felt guilty and speechless.
King Lao Ling did not speak during the whole process.
Old King Ling did not speak, and no one in the Tianshi Mansion spoke.
"Fat Li, you and the others stay here to keep an eye on the Imperial Master's body, and no one except me is allowed to get close to it." After Jin An left a message, he named a few people and went to Yizhuang to look for him.
Old Prince Ling did not come with him this time, but was comforting the people in the Imperial Prefecture.
Jin An took people with him and followed the footsteps of Brother Xing Cha Si into the mountains to find people. With his spiritual cultivation, Yuan Shen could search the world faster, but with people from the Tianshi Mansion here, he could only change to
Go to the mountains to find someone on the ground.
He has just broken through to the realm not long ago, and it will take some time to completely stabilize himself in the late stage of the three realms.
Yizhuang, the quarry, and the Imperial Cemetery are the closest to each other, while the Imperial Cemetery is the farthest from Yizhuang. Yizhuang has lush shrubs and complex terrain. Fortunately, there is a new footprint on the ground, and there are many trees along the way.
There are also traces of cuts on the vines, so you can follow this into the mountain.
As the night darkens, the cold night wind howls, getting louder and louder, and the coldness penetrates into the bones. If you experience it carefully, you will be surprised to find that this bone-eviscerating cold wind comes from the mountain peak where Yizhuang is located, which is Widow's Village.
The atmosphere along the way was a bit dull. The people in the Criminal Investigation Department were all shocked by Jin An's majesty just now. At this time, they didn't dare to breathe or speak, and they just kept their heads on the road.
Everyone who was shivering in the cold wind suddenly felt warm all over their bodies, as if their hands and feet were pressed against a stove. Their whole bodies felt warm, and they suddenly became energetic and their complexions returned to rosy and bloody.
The brothers from the Criminal Investigation Department looked up and found that the commander was walking in front of Po Feng.
The commander walked in front without saying a word, like a tall and steady mountain, bearing all the wind and snow for them. Waves of white hot wind overflowed from the commander's body, wrapping them generously and shielding them from the wind and snow.
So you are not afraid of severe cold.
"Commander." Everyone was moved, and when their bodies and minds were warmed, the corners of their eyes could not help but become moist.
The commander has not changed, he is still as protective as ever.
The majesty of the commander is only for outsiders.
"Your Majesty, Commander, you treat everyone well, and we all see it. Your Majesty, Commander, is here at the Criminal Investigation Department. I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not..." One person spoke cautiously, and sweat broke out on his forehead at this time.
, panting from the heat.
"There is no distinction between officialdom and superiority here, so it's okay to just say it." Jin An still walked forward to clear the way.
Jin An knew that this man's name was Zhang Jiang, and he was very popular in the Criminal Investigation Department. Everyone affectionately called him Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang: "After all, the general of the Tianwu Camp of the Forbidden Army just now is the adopted son of the national master, and the national master has just passed away. I think the commander needs to take into account the people's hearts and not to fall into the trap of others."
Jin An chuckled: "What I want is for them to be anxious. The more anxious they are, the more likely they are to make mistakes."
He stopped at the point and didn't explain much of his inner thoughts.
It's not that I don't trust him.
But beware that partition walls have ears.
Seeing that the commander was confident, Lao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief: "King Ling is right, the commander is civilized and military, brave and resourceful, everything is in the commander's plan, but I thought too much
."
Jin An laughed and said, "I like to be straightforward."
They entered the mountain very quickly this time. The group in front of them had just entered the mountain for half a day. They did not need to waste extra energy to clear the way along the way. They could just follow the footsteps. Moreover, the people in the Criminal Investigation Department are all martial arts and are good players in the world.
Everyone's hands and feet are agile, and they can handle this kind of snowy and muddy road with ease.
When the group could see Yizhuang from a distance, the sky had darkened, and the cold wind at night was even stronger, making it even colder and biting.
However, the people from the Criminal Investigation Department walked away with their breath hot and their foreheads dripping with sweat. Some people were so hot that they rolled up their sleeves.
Wow——
Crash--
On this freezing winter night, there was the sound of someone washing clothes and the sound of a water basin tipping over.
"Where does the commander's voice seem to be coming from?" Someone pointed to the right hand direction of the team.
"No wonder people in the cemetery say that the widows living in the Widow's Manor are insane. It's a cold day and a dark night. Who in the right family would come out to wash clothes?"
