Chapter two hundred and eighty nine, the whole city search

After all, the woman was an ordinary person who saw so much blood and fainted. Luo Tian ignored her. The reason why she asked her to shout was to bring in the two guards he still left behind. At that time, he could be seen running away and confirm that the Zangxing Cult sent someone to kill the general.

Sure enough, after Luo Tian finished drawing the sign of the Zangxing Sect, two guards outside quickly entered the attic. When they saw the killed general's face changed drastically, they looked at Luo Tian again and saw Luo Tian's back and the sign of the Zangxing Sect painted with blood on the wall, and quickly shouted: "Where are the thieves from the Zangxing Sect leaving?"

When he called Luo Tian, ​​he knew that his goal had been achieved, and his spiritual energy was released and he quickly left the attic.

The two guards were chasing each other. After Luo Tian walked away, he heard an alarm sound in Hongtai City from afar. A general was killed in Hongtai City. This was a big deal. Luo Tian put the clothes of the believers of the Blossom Star Sect into the mustard seed ring, and then returned to the inn for a night.

Almost all inns were raided that night, and Luo Tian's room was also searched, so naturally nothing was found.

In the yamen in Hongtai City, a yamen runner with a mustache was looking at the woman in front of him. He was the general's lover in Hongtai City. He pinched his beard and asked, "How old is the girl?"

The scared woman lowered her head and said for a while: "I am in my early twenties this year. I used to be a red card from Zuihuafang. Later, the general redeemed me and asked me to follow him."

"Oh, girl, don't be afraid, just tell me what you saw at that time." The yamen runner asked.

"I was lying on the bed at that time. Later, someone knocked on the door, and the general went to open it. After that, he didn't hear anything. The general asked something, as if he was asking who he was. Then I turned around and looked at it when I heard no sound. At that time, I saw that the general was already lying on the ground and covered in blood. The man took off the general's head, which scared me to death. I was dizzy and I had never seen such a scene before, so I fainted suddenly." The mistress lowered her head and said.

"Then have you seen clearly what that person looks like?" asked the yamen runner.

"No, the lights in the room were covered with pink covers, but I saw an icon on the clothes on the man..." The mistress wanted to speak but didn't dare to continue.

"Is it a symbol of the Bangxing Sect?" asked the yamen runner.

The mistress nodded, and the yamen runner nodded and said, "Someone will let you go later."

After the mistress left, several people who were on duty met. The headmaster in Hongtai City, who was in charge of criminal investigation, was a rough man, and he was not old and not well-cultivated. He came up with family connections. Unexpectedly, such a big murder occurred in Hongtai City, and a general died and was a general who had just won a battle and was rewarded by the emperor. This nature was serious.

"Master Lin, what do you think of this case? You haven't dared to report it yet. The city lord means to hold on for one night and buy us some time. When the superior knows, he will definitely let us solve the case at a limited time, so we can have time to prepare." The captain is quite majestic on weekdays. The most majestic person in Hongtai City is the generals of the large corps garrison nearby. Next is the city lord. If you go down, you will be considered as his captain. No matter who sees the streets and alleys, shops, he will not nod and bow.

But he also knew that he didn't have much real skills, and he had to rely on the help of the master when he encountered something. Master Lin was the most capable constable in Hongtai City. Logically speaking, he should be the captain, but he had something to do with him. He airborne a captain, which blocked his promotion path in an instant.

So he was also afraid that Constable Lin would not come to help him at such a time. Constable Lin did not speak immediately, but pondered for a while before speaking: "I think this matter is a bit strange. At first glance, it was done by the Zhanxing Sect, but I think something is wrong."

"What's wrong?" everyone asked in confusion.

"Look, although the sign of the Zangxing Cult is left on the wall, and the mistresses of the two guards and generals saw a person suspected of being a Zangxing Cult, the whole thing is full of doubts. I'll ask you, if you were to kill someone, why would you wear the robes of your own sect and why would you draw the sign of your own sect on the wall? Isn't this a long life if you are full?" When he said that, everyone couldn't help but nod.

"Even if this is the attempt to provoke our empire, so I deliberately killed someone and left a name, why didn't I kill those two guards by the way? I talked to my mistress, and she shouldn't have lie. That is, the general was still alive when he opened the door. From the opening of the door to the mistress seeing him being killed, the general's cultivation level is not weak, right? A master of the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm was easily killed in a few breaths, and he was killed without any fighting back. What kind of cultivation level is this person? I'm afraid he is at least above the Human Pill Realm. Then why not kill those two guards? It's not a matter of trying to kill those two guards, but he let these two people go. Strange, this is too strange."

The headmaster touched his neck and smiled, "Master Lin, what do you mean is that this is not done by the Zhanxing Sect?"

"You can't say that, because I have no evidence yet. Let's do this. You block the whole city and then check all the people who have recently entered the city. If you encounter a monk with high cultivation level, you should focus on it. If the other party resists or you dare not mess with it, report it immediately. We ask the army to go there. In addition, we need to check those who have storage treasures such as mustard rings. Go quickly. I guess the leader will give orders soon to let us arrest the murderer for a limited time."

Constable Lin guessed correctly. The orders from the next day came down, but what he didn't expect was that the same thing happened more than ten times overnight. From the martial arts hall to the civil servants, more than a dozen ministers of the Aoda Empire were killed overnight, causing a sensation in the entire empire. The emperor personally issued an imperial edict to strictly investigate the murderer.

At this critical moment, the constable of the search team once again came to the inn where Luo Tian was staying.

"I remember a businessman living on it, who seemed to be wearing a mustard ring. We didn't check it carefully when we came last time, otherwise we would check it out today."

The person they were talking about was Luo Tian. After going upstairs, Luo Tian was meditating in the room. After opening the door, he saw two detectives standing at the door. One of them glanced at Luo Tian's fingers, saw Luo Tian's mustard ring and said, "Did you just entered the city two days ago?"

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Yes, come and do some small business. What's wrong? Didn't you just checked it last time?"

"Stop talking nonsense, what are the mustard seed rings in your mustard ring? Open it and let us see." The constable came for Luo Tian's mustard ring. Before, Luo Tian didn't burn the robe because he didn't know whether he would use the robe of the believers of the Blossom Star Cult in the future, so he did not burn the robe, but put it in the mustard ring. If he was discovered today, he might be exposed.

"There are only some goods here. The business I do is not small, so it is more convenient to get a mustard ring. However, some goods cannot be damaged when they are not visible. Please be considerate of the two servants." He said with a smile, and at the same time he took out two silver notes and handed them to the servants. Although the face value is not large, the income of these detectives is not high.

On weekdays, the constable will definitely be charged, but the recent case is quite serious, so they dare not accept the money. One of them became suspicious and pointed at Luo Tian's finger and said, "I'm going to see your mustard ring and open it for us to check."

Luo Tian frowned, feeling that he might be exposed if he continues to entangle like this. After looking around, this is not a place to take action. The shouts of the two constables attracted many people to watch. If they take action at this time, they would cause more trouble. Therefore, he thought in his mind and decided to bring the two constables into the room and then take action. At this moment, a few people suddenly ran over from the other side of the aisle. One of the leaders was short, but he shouted with a smile: "Oh, isn't this Brother Luo? Haha, it's been a long time no see."

Luo Tian and the two constables looked at each other in a daze. The person who ran over was actually Li Dunzhu, a traveling businessman from Tongtianhui.
