Chapter 447 Wenxiang Ruanjin Powder
?The bodies of the seven masters are now placed in a coffin shop in the city, and the coffin shop named Wanji is also one of the properties of the Beggar Gang.
?Ma Lu and Gu Qingyi rushed there. After showing the copper ring given by Chu Qianyuan and explaining their purpose, they were let in by the Beggar Clan disciples guarding the door.
These seven people had extraordinary backgrounds. After their deaths, many people came to express their condolences. The Beggar Gang also sent people to report to their relatives and friends in the sect, and promised to catch the murderers as soon as possible.
?However, it has been two days since they were killed, and everyone who should express condolences has almost done so, so there is no one in the coffin shop at this moment, except for an old shopkeeper with dead eyes.
?When Ma Lu and Gu Qingyi came in, the old shopkeeper was holding a writing brush and dancing around there. Ma Lu thought he was practicing calligraphy at first, but when he got closer, he realized that he was drawing talisman.
“What kind of talisman is the shopkeeper drawing?” Ma Lu asked.
“Breaking Evil Talisman.” The old shopkeeper heard the footsteps but did not immediately raise his head. He did not put the brush aside until he finished the last stroke.
"Are you two here to investigate the case or to express condolences? Hey... I have seen you. You are the boy named He. Haven''t you been here before?"
? He ??said this to Gu Qingyi. In order to hide his identity from the two detectives from the Iron Clothes Sect, Gu Qingyi usually used the pseudonym He Jiuyuan when investigating cases.
“Well, Shopkeeper Wan, this friend of mine wants to come to express his condolences and take a look at the body.”
Shopkeeper Wan glanced at Ma Lu and said, "Let''s just investigate the case. Why do you have to offer condolences? Do you know them?"
?Gu Qingyi was a little embarrassed when he heard this.
“Since you’ve been here before, do you want me to introduce it to you again?”
“You want it, you want it.” Gu Qingyi nodded.
Shopkeeper Wan walked to the first coffin, reached out and pushed open the crown, "Lying inside is Xu Sheng, the Soul-Severing Spear of the Divine Gun Sect."
?Ma Lu only raised his head and glanced at it, and he understood why Gu Qingyi insisted on asking Shopkeeper Wan to introduce him just now, and why Shopkeeper Wan was busy drawing evil charms.
Because Xu Sheng''s head was smashed with a blunt instrument, like a watermelon dropped on the ground, and his facial features could no longer be distinguished.
Beside him, lying in a golden nanmu coffin, was Fairy Lingbo from the Jade Girl Palace with a deep eyebrow.
?Shen Mei was even worse. She had been cut countless times all over her body, and her flesh and blood were turned out. There was almost no intact skin left, and the shape was horrific.
“And this one, his identity is even more remarkable.” Shopkeeper Wan pointed at a **** coffin and said.
“He is the young master of the Condor Valley, one of the three holy places in the world—Jade Faced Divine Fist Duan Erlang. His martial arts talent is astonishing. At a young age, he has mastered Condor Valley’s unique Fengyun Fist to the sixth level.
“It’s a pity that after lying in this wooden coffin, his future glory and wealth will have nothing to do with him.”
Ma Lu looked over and saw that the body in the coffin was not even half as beautiful as a jade face. Only a pair of wide, angry eyes remained. The nose and the mouth below had been cut off.
Ma Luqi said, "Hey, why did the murderer destroy all these people''s faces?"
"You ask me, I''m not the murderer, how would I know?" Shopkeeper Wan shook his head, and then he walked to the fourth coffin. “There are many heroes in the martial arts today, but there are only a few who really deserve this title, and Jiangzhou hero Chu Jingtian is one of them.
“The great chivalrous Bo Yuntian of Chu, twenty-seven members of the Jiang family were killed by Huo Yunzi, a master of magic, and Huo Yunzi also fled outside the pass.
"The hero of Chu has never met anyone in the Jiang family, but in order to safeguard justice in the martial arts world, he did not hesitate to go far outside the customs. He spent three years finding Huo Yunzi and killing him. Such chivalrous actions are worthy of the hero. name.”
“As for the fifth person, his identity is not simple. He is the Black Snake Master of Wanshe Mountain. His Black Snake Eleven Transformations are even praised by the Dugu Pavilion Master of Hidden Sword Pavilion.”
"And I can''t tell the difference between the sixth and seventh corpses, because they were originally twins, with exactly the same body shape and appearance. The two brothers worked together, no matter how many enemies they faced, they fought together. .
“They come from the most mysterious Tongxin Sect among the Three Holy Lands, and they practice the Tongxin Sect’s secret knowledge.
“It is said that only twins with the same mind can practice this martial arts, so the Tongxin Sect has always only accepted twins as disciples. This is also the most magical martial arts in the martial arts world. Once practiced, it will have endless uses.”
??Ma Lu heard the old shopkeeper talk very highly about these seven people, and he didn''t know if these people were really that powerful or if they were just talking about business.
The main reason is that if they were so strong, how could they be wiped out in one fell swoop?
Just as Malu was thinking this, a voice suddenly came to his ears, "The reason why their faces were ruined is because they were all poisoned by the strange poison Wenxiang Ruanjin San before they died.
“This poison is colorless and odorless, but it can make people lose all their internal energy. What’s even more amazing is that even if a silver needle is used to perform an autopsy, it is difficult to detect the poison. The only flaw is that the lips of the deceased will turn slightly blue.
"And this is why the murderer wanted to destroy these people''s facial features. His target was the lips. The reason why he also destroyed other places was because he didn''t want people to think of Wenxiang Ruanjinsan."
The person speaking was a man in gray, holding a folding fan and a wine gourd hanging from his waist. Next to him stood a man wearing a bamboo hat and as tall as an iron tower.
?Seeing these two people, Gu Qingyi''s expression suddenly froze, and he turned around and wanted to run away, but he thought about how easy it was for him and forced himself to calm down.
?But then she heard the man in gray say again, "Miss Third, you must have had enough fun outside during this time. It''s time to go home. The master of the door has always been worried about you."
"What, Miss Third, did you two recognize the wrong person?" Gu Qingyi''s face changed drastically, and she even forgot to lower her voice.
The man in gray shook his folding fan, "Third Miss, you learned the art of disguise from Senior Han. Then who do you think Senior Han''s disciple is? I heard someone said that another iron-clothed sect has appeared in Yuchang County. The **** catches me and thinks of you."
"It''s just that Inspector Wen and I were busy investigating the case earlier and didn''t bother to look for you."
?? Gu Qingyi was not so scared when his disguise was exposed by his words, and she puffed up her chest and said, "What a coincidence, I am also investigating the case. I will not leave Yuchang County until the case is found out."
?The man in gray and the burly man looked at each other, and the latter made a gesture.
The man in gray said, "Wen Shenwen said that Yuchang County is not safe now. The war between the Beggar Clan and Tianlongmen is unavoidable. The masters of Tongxinmen, Jade Girl Palace and Condor Valley can''t protect themselves. The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall. Third Miss, you’d better not stay here and make things difficult for us.”
“Then will you leave too?” Gu Qingyi asked.
