Chapter 558 Cui Liang: Someone must be plotting against us
The fifth in the world is Wulezhi!
This is a top killer.
He shocked others with his quick knife skills like a butcher cutting up an ox and his extraordinary lightness skills.
In the original novel, this guy can fight against Li Yuanfang in his prime in open areas. It's a pity that as the personal guard general of the Turkic Prince Helu, he needs to protect Helu all the time.
Therefore, at the last moment, he was caught by the angry Li Yuanfang in the narrow terrain of the royal tent, and had no chance to use his quick sword and light skills.
Only then was Li Yuanfang cut off his head with a knife.
If it were an open area, with both of them in their prime and without any negative impact, Ulezhi could have just run away.
Now, Li Cunxi has recruited Wulezhi, so Wulezhi will naturally not die at the hands of Li Yuanfang.
The Wind Rider Cavalry, which is famous in the Western Regions and intimidates wealthy businessmen, will also shine in the Great Zhou.
Tonight, their light has bloomed. More than a hundred people have killed hundreds of water ghosts. The dead were all turned into bones, and not a single intact corpse was seen.
"Demon Spirit, pass on my order. Have the Qianniu Guard and my Imperial Guard enter this place, move all the bones to one place, and count them together."
"I must know how many people died here, and who has such brutal and cruel means to rip people to pieces."
Li Cunxi closed his eyes, what a thief crying "stop thief".
Wu Yanhao and Lu Dayou stood aside, expressing their opinions and saying things like "the criminals must never be let off."
Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng, who had just walked to the back, looked at each other and thought that no matter what, they must not investigate it, otherwise they would be finished.
Few people in the world can do such a beautiful job.
It is extremely difficult to find out the identity of the real murderer.
but.
If he couldn't find the murderer, Li Cunxi could also investigate why there were hundreds of people in the Beigou warehouse.
In a place that looks like a warehouse, so many people died, and it is unknown how these people gathered together.
Thinking hard.
As long as one of Peng Chun and Peng Qiu is found, and then a secret investigation is conducted, the mystery of Beigou Warehouse will be revealed.
"It's going to be a disaster. We must inform Prince Ying as soon as we return."
"We need to come up with a solution as soon as possible, otherwise once we are found out, the consequences will be disastrous."
"That's right. We must find a solution as soon as possible. There must be an explanation for the deaths of these hundreds of people."
"I don't know why, but I felt a chill down my spine and panicked. I felt like we were being plotted against."
"Who would plot against us? We have already taken care of all the officials in Yangzhou. No one would plot against us."
"That's right. No one in Yangzhou will plot against us. Moreover, Li Cunxi will not plot against us even though he has accepted our bribes."
"Who is the one who plotted against us?"
Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't figure out who was responsible for the sudden situation.
In their view, since Li Cunxi had accepted the bribe and had shown his intention to leave Yangzhou, he would definitely not cause such a thing on the second night.
Moreover, even if Li Cunxi wanted to do so, the Qianniu Guards and the Imperial Guards under his command could not cut people into bones, right?
Therefore, Li Cunxi and his group were no longer suspected, the officials in Yangzhou were no longer suspected, and the boatmen in Yangzhou were no longer suspected.
So, who are the remaining suspects?
Cui Liang suddenly had an idea and reached out to grab Wu Wendeng.
Wu Wendeng seemed to have the same thought as him and looked up suddenly.
The two men's mouths opened and closed, but no sound came out, yet their movements were completely in unison.
"Yuan Qi!"
Their eyes were filled with shock. They couldn't believe that Yuan Qi, who was cooperating with them, would actually harm them.
"Do you have any evidence?" Wu Wendeng narrowed his eyes.
"What do you think?" Cui Liang gritted his teeth.
There is no evidence to prove it, but the most likely and capable group to do such a thing is the Iron Hands.
The two of them didn't want to think about the relationship anymore, and they had already thought about it.
They are not fools, they can guess it.
If you want to analyze who did something, you don’t need to look for evidence everywhere, you just need to think about who can do this.
The Iron Hand Group, the number one killer organization in the martial arts world, can do this!
Li Cunxi walked in front with a stern face, trying hard not to laugh out loud.
The two people were whispering in the back, and he really thought that they couldn't hear anything clearly, but Li Cunxi's three attributes had already far exceeded those of ordinary people, and his hearing was amazing, so he could hear the conversation between the two clearly.
At this moment, Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng became suspicious of the Iron Hand Regiment, but they did not think about it. The Beigou Warehouse was originally a subordinate unit of the Iron Hand Regiment.
All the people in the Beigou warehouse were under the jurisdiction of Lin Yang, the leader of the 22nd Hall of the Iron Hand Group, also known as Lu Jiying. Yuan Qi had nothing better to do than to kill these people.
"Cunxi, the inventory is complete."
Hu Jinghui strode in, not avoiding the minced meat and dirty meat on the ground.
"Oh? So fast?" Li Cunxi raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, the soldiers of Qianniu Guard and Imperial Guard will command the soldiers of the Governor's Mansion to move all the bones out. They will be responsible for counting them."
"Look, there are 352 skeletons, all of whom died within a day. The murderer was cruel, butchering them like a butcher would butcher an ox, and he cut them into a pile of bones."
Hu Jinghui's expression changed immediately, as if he was expressing his dissatisfaction with such a cruel method.
"352 people died here quietly, and we don't even know who the murderer is."
Li Cunxi looked up to the sky and sighed.
His helplessness was seen by everyone, even Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng who were standing behind him were infected by him.
In Cui Liang's opinion, this trip was a perfect journey for Li Cunxi, Wu Yanhao and others.
Who knew something like this would happen.
Li Cunxi and others’ trip was ruined, and their opportunity to make money was also directly eliminated.
"Your Highness Duke Qin, this matter..."
Cui Liang took the initiative to step forward and put on a bitter face.
Halfway through his words, he saw Li Cunxi stretch out his left hand to stop him from continuing.
"Governor Cui, this matter is no small matter."
"Even if I want to make excuses for you, I am powerless to refute it."
"352 lives, 352 skeletons, 352 dead souls. Such a big thing happened not long after I arrived in Yangzhou. Human lives are at stake!"
"Not to mention that your position as the governor of Yangzhou is difficult to keep, even if I, Li Cunxi, am the head of all officials, I will inevitably be severely reported by those enemies this time!"
"I, Li Cunxi, am innocent. Even if Governor Cui chews his tongue to pieces, I still can't speak for you."
Li Cunxi was speechless and interrupted Cui Liang's words.
"Your Highness, Duke Qin, this matter is of great importance, and I cannot deceive Your Highness."
"The large amount of blood outside Yangzhou City some time ago, in my opinion, is also related to the bones today."
