Chapter 23 Master

Wow!

Everyone was stunned!

But the person who fell from the sky and held the iron coffin with one hand turned out to be a woman with a face from the Western Regions!

Moreover, she looks very beautiful!

However, the police officers present were very familiar with this woman, and they all knew of her violent temper, so they immediately kept silent and even retreated one after another.

"Paralytic Xu!" Looking at Xu Zun who was rolling on the ground in a very embarrassed state, Huo Anu stood tall and proud, "How is it? I saved your life!"

In fact, even if Huo Anu didn't take action just now, Xu Zun could have avoided it.

Seeing the iron coffin landed safely at this moment, Xu Zun simply sat cross-legged on the ground, looked up at Huo Anu, and asked:

"Didn't you go back?"

"Xu Paraman," Huo Anu put away the iron umbrella and pointed at the iron coffin and asked, "What on earth is this? It's so strange!"

"Tch..." Xu Zun snorted angrily.

Seeing Xu Zun's gloomy expression, Huo Anu stretched out his iron umbrella to him, trying to help him get up.

However, Xu Zun did not touch the iron umbrella at all. Instead, he got up from the ground and walked straight into Yizhuang without even dusting himself off.

"Hey? You are such a jerk," Huo Anu followed, scolding with big shining eyes, "Why are you so ungrateful? I saved you...hey..."

Xu Zun ignored her and entered the hall where the corpse was parked.

In the huge morgue, there were only four morgues with corpses on them, covered with white cloth, and the smell was unpleasant.

"Xu Paraman," Huo Anu still refused, "If I hadn't taken action in time, you would have turned into a puddle of mud now! Why don't you thank me?"

"Shut up!" Finally, Xu Zun shouted unbearably, "Don't think I don't know how the coffin fell!"

"Ah You……"

In one sentence, Huo Anu asked Leng, and Nie looked at Xu Zun blankly.

It turned out that Xu Zun had known for a long time that Huo Anu had not really left.

Once she was ordered by Duke Shen to protect Xu Zun, she did not dare to disobey him easily even if she was not happy.

Secondly, Huo Anu is very curious. She must really want to know what kind of trouble Xu Zun encountered?

However, Xu Zun did not expect that this woman from the Western Region would use a concealed weapon to shoot off the rope in order to find a way down the stairs for herself, and put on a good show of a fierce woman rescuing a handsome man!

In this way, Xu Zun owed her a favor and could continue her bodyguard mission naturally.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zun had already seen through her little trick, causing the bad-tempered woman to blush and look embarrassed.

"You..." she asked in disbelief, "have you seen everything? Impossible? Aren't you Xu Xiaopeng?"

"Ignore me, I'm bothering you!" Unexpectedly, Xu Zun didn't want to argue with her, so he immediately went to the body to check on it.

At this time, he suddenly remembered what happened to Wang Shuncai, and asked the policeman outside loudly: "Where is Wang Shuncai!?"

"My lord, my lord..." A famous detective immediately stepped forward and agreed, "I haven't found it yet!"

"Not found yet?" Xu Zun frowned.

"Yes," the police report said, "we went to his home to look for him, but he was not at home. We also searched all the places he frequented!"

"What's his home like? Is there anything unusual?" Xu Zun asked.

"No," the detective replied, "There is nothing abnormal. The chickens raised at home are still there, and they don't look like they have been out for a long time!"

With that said, the policeman wanted to go into the house to talk.

"Okay," Xu Zun waved to him, "keep looking! If you really can't find it, let someone else come over and do the autopsy!"

"Yes!" The agent left eagerly.

"The fire is booming," Xu Zun finally took a look at this beautiful woman from the Western Region and asked, "Would my fiancée be willing to let you be my bodyguard?"

"Huh? Are you asking me? Huo Wangwang...how dare you give me a nickname?" Huo Anu's eyes widened.

Wangwangtongwangwangwang, Xu Zun was implying that she was barking like a dog.

"When did you stop calling me Xu Panzi, and I stopped calling you Huo Wangwang!" Xu Zun said lightly.

"You!?" Huo Anu was angry, but looking at the corpse parked in the hall, his expression was a bit unnatural.

Although she is highly skilled in martial arts, she rarely deals with the dead.

"Your nickname was given by Miss Shen," Huo Anu looked at the corpse and said hesitantly, "As for whether Miss Shen agrees with me being your bodyguard..."

"Okay, I get it!" Without waiting for Huo Anu to reply, Xu Zun turned around again, came to one of the corpses, reached out and lifted up the white cloth.

"Ah?" Huo Anu immediately recognized the identity of the deceased and said in surprise, "Isn't this Mr. Liu? Is he dead?"

"Otherwise...why would Mr. Shen send you to protect me?" Xu Zun murmured, then possessed himself to observe the corpse.

However, the corpse's complexion was purple, its lips were black, and there were obvious signs of poisoning.

"So serious?" Huo Anu looked at the corpse and muttered, "Do officials also die? Oh no, this is the first time I see a dead official!"

"Huh?" Xu Zun noticed the clue before he examined it carefully. He pointed at Liu Zhang's neck and asked, "Look at his neck bones, are they broken?"

After hearing the question, Huo Anu came to him, squeezed it boldly, nodded and said, "Indeed, this method is different from mine, and I didn't do it!"

"..." Xu Zun was speechless and looked at Huo Anu for three seconds.

"My Chinese is not good," Huo Anu said again, "I mean, the person who killed him is not inferior to me in martial arts!"

"Oh?" Xu Zun's eyes lit up and he asked, "How can you see it?"

"Look," Huo Anu pinched the corpse's neck and said, "His neck bones were broken very neatly, just at the fatal point!

"This shows that the opponent has deep skills and can strike cleanly and almost fatally with one move! If it were an ordinary person, the bones would be bent and even broken!"

"Oh..." Xu Zunruo had some realization, "So, this so-called expert also knows a lot about the human skeleton?"

"You can say it like this!" Huo Anu said, "High-level killers and assassins will all receive training in this area! But..." she pointed at the corpse and said, "Why does Master Liu seem to be poisoned? And it looks like It’s snake venom…”

Xu Zun immediately pried open Liu Zhang's mouth and observed while saying: "The inside of his throat did not change color. I suspect that someone deliberately applied poison after killing him, trying to pretend to be poisoned! Strange..."

"Yes, why are you pretending?" Huo Anu was also curious and asked Xu Zun, "Where was Mr. Liu killed? What did he get into as an old man?"

"The iron coffin case occurred two years ago," Xu Zun said to himself, "After the last occurrence, the county magistrate was dismissed and the county captain was dismissed...

"And this time, the chief clerk died in the coffin! Could it be..." he opened his mouth and said, "the murderer is really coming for our Xinye County Government Office? Next..."

"Are you next!?" Huo Anu was extremely excited.

"No! Magistrate Luo County is older than me. It seems like he is more dangerous than me, right?" Xu Zun said, "There is also our Magistrate Qiu, and of course, there may be me too!"

"Wait a minute..." Huo Anu understood what was going on and asked seriously, "You just said that Mr. Liu died in a coffin? Is that the iron coffin?"

Seeing that Xu Zun did not deny it, Huo Anu held the iron umbrella and said excitedly: "Wow, what a powerful case! Fortunately, it's here! Xu Xiao...oh, County Lieutenant Xu, where did that iron coffin... come from?

"

Xu Zun did not answer her question, but walked to a corpse nearby and lifted up the white cloth, revealing the body of the mysterious Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest still has a ferocious face!

Xu Zun took a closer look and found that there were also obvious signs of poisoning on his face.

It was also poisoning, Master Liu died peacefully, but why was he so ferocious? It seemed that he saw something terrifying before he died?

"Hey?" Unexpectedly, when Huo Anu came over, he pointed at the corpse and said, "Isn't this a Taoist priest from the Temple of Immortality?"
