Chapter 171 The floating butcher's knife has been raised(1/2)
Mu Nan wiped his palms with a white handkerchief, looked at Lu Changge who was crying heartbrokenly in the cell, and thought speechlessly that this was the first time he had seen a prisoner with such poor psychological tolerance.
As a true disciple of Buluoshanmen, Lu Changge has always been arrogant. It is normal for him to suddenly be imprisoned, fall into the abyss, and be hit. It cannot be said to be naive, but it is indeed because he has not experienced too many thorns and setbacks, has naive ideas, is afraid of the darkness, and encounters a little difficulty, and is completely in a bad mood.
He ignored Lu Changge's yelling and just said to Xie Chunfeng: "The evidence of Lu Changge's crime is conclusive. Even if he doesn't fall into the mountain and wants to save him, he cannot avoid serious punishment. It is inevitable to stay in this prison for a few years. But if Chief Xie can find out the evidence that Li Mengzhou framed Lu Changge, the case can of course be re-invested."
Although Mu Nan's words sounded very explicit, they were also true, because if you want to overturn Lu Changge, you must prove that those charges were not done by him, so Li Mengzhou is the only key to overturning the case.
Xie Chunfeng can think that Mu Nan was deliberately asking him to trouble Li Mengzhou, or that this was just the advice given by Mu Nan.
Even if Mu Nan has ulterior motives, there is no problem with these words.
But this is Lu Changge's only life-saving straw.
Although if he did not Luoshanmen tried his best to protect him, Xuan Zhengshi would not be able to convict him of death. In terms of identity, Lu Changge and Zhu Zaitian were no different. Wu Luoshanmen's attitude could only shorten Lu Changge's time in prison as much as possible, and it would be impossible for him to be released without guilt, otherwise it would be difficult for His Majesty the Emperor to explain.
But for Lu Changge, he couldn't stand it even if he had only been in prison for one night.
"Senior Brother! This is Li Mengzhou's conspiracy. As long as he is caught and tortured and confessed, he will inevitably confess his guilt. That bastard deliberately framed me and declared war on us. He will never forgive him!"
Although Lu Changge was completely confused, his hatred for Li Mengzhou suddenly calmed down a lot, and he said with a gloomy face: "It's because I saw the scene of him killing Mr. Zhu. Although I don't know why he could know it was me, the Park Knife and the Rabbit-faced mask were all deliberately placed by Li Mengzhou here."
"The woman who lives in Chaosi Lane is also his accomplice. I even suspect that Li Mengzhou not only killed Mr. Zhu, but the officials who were killed in recent times are probably all done by him!"
Xie Chunfeng frowned and said, "What you said is true? Did Li Mengzhou kill Mr. Zhu? Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Xie Chunfeng did not take Lu Changge's final suspicion seriously, but if it was Li Mengzhou who really killed Zhu Zaitian and was caught by Lu Changge, the thief called for catching the thief and pointed it out first, it would be reasonable.
But if this is true, Li Mengzhou's thoughts will be quite sinister.
Mu Nan just smiled but said nothing. Although Xu Sishou had the intention to temporarily let go of Li Mengzhou, it would undoubtedly be very interesting if he did not fall into the mountains and pointed the finger directly at Li Mengzhou.
As long as you can withstand the pressure of Li Gong Jianyuan without falling down, then Xuan Zhengshi can naturally arrest and investigate Li Mengzhou. Even Tianshu Yuan cannot ignore the attitude of not falling down.
Xie Chunfeng, who received Lu Changge's affirmative answer, also fell into deep thought.
He recalled the scene when he met Li Mengzhou in Chaosixiang. His sincere and calm appearance made it difficult for people to suspect that the other party was lying, but Lu Changge, who was so pitiful, curled up in the cell, obviously had no need to lie.
Of course, Xie Chunfeng knew his junior brother better. Although his character was not very good, Xie Chunfeng was also very clear about what he looked like when he lies. If what Lu Changge said was the truth, then the only one who lies was Li Mengzhou.
But when Xie Chunfeng thought that Li Mengzhou could lie quietly in front of him and Ning Haoran, his mood became a little complicated.
It is normal for Ning Haoran to protect Li Mengzhou, because he is Ning Haoran.
But Li Mengzhou, as his junior brother, may not be the same as Ning Haoran.
Just thinking that Li Mengzhou was telling lies with a calm and sincere expression, and the people who deceived him also included his senior brother. Xie Chunfeng suddenly felt a little disgusted at this moment.
Xie Chunfeng looked at Lu Changge in the cell and said, "If you are really innocent, I will definitely do my best to save you. You will stay here tonight and I will find out this matter."
Although Lu Changge wanted to leave immediately, he knew that he had to give the senior brother the time to find Li Mengzhou's handle, so he could only nod in angrily.
Xie Chunfeng immediately said to Mu Nan beside him: "My junior brother has to trouble Mr. Mu to take care of him. I will check Li Mengzhou's problems myself."
Mu Nan said with a smile: "Then I will be grateful to Chief Xie for good news. Don't worry, Lu Changge will sleep peacefully in the Xuanzhengsi prison. I will not let anyone disturb him."
Xie Chunfeng looked at Mu Nan silently and said nothing. Of course, he could understand what Mu Nan was thinking, but if Li Mengzhou really deliberately framed Lu Changge, then no matter what, this matter could not be avoided.
He needs to confirm the attitude of Ligong Jianyuan.
......
At the second hour of Yin, there is still more than an hour left, and it is the sunrise.
In normal times, it was also the time when Li Mengzhou was preparing to go to Ligong Jianyuan for morning class.
This long night is about to pass.
But there are some things that need to be done before dawn.
Soon the capital city will be lively again, and the people who are used to getting up very early will also start preparing to go to the market to be busy, but before that, the capital city was quiet to death.
On a certain street, a man in white was slowly moving in a certain direction.
He held a Park knife in his hand.
The hair is tied into a bun, and the hair is fluttering behind the head with the wind.
He wore a pure white mask on his face, which seemed to be made of silver, with only a pair of eyes exposed, which looked very strange in the dark, which was a strange feeling different from the crude cat-face mask.
The rain has stopped all night.
He looked up at the clearer starry night sky, and let out a light breath, and a dull voice came out from under his mask, "Fusheng's butcher knife has been lifted up, darkness swallows up the light, and finally comes to the world."
......
In the silent Xuanzhengsi prison, Lu Changge couldn't sleep.
He endured the unpleasant smell and the messy feeling on the haystack, and tried his best to convince himself to lie on it. A ray of moonlight outside the window shone in, meaning that the rain had stopped.
He opened his blood-covered eyes, looked at the stars in the night sky through the window, and muttered with gritting his teeth, "Damn Li Mengzhou, you actually made me suffer such torture. I must kill you. I want you to repay a hundred times a thousand times..."
At this moment, he suddenly noticed something, turned over and sat up, and looked at the window facing the prison corridor outside the prison room, and there was a faint sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.
Soon, a face appeared outside the window.
A pure white face.
That was a mask.
Lu Changge couldn't help but tremble. In his dim vision, the pure white face appeared abruptly, and his heart beat faster in an instant.
Suddenly, I felt like my hair was bursting.
"You...who are you?!"
The dull sound under the pure white mask rang in the quiet cell, as if it was exploding in Lu Changge's ears, "Fusheng's butcher's knife has been lifted, and you will become the dead soul under the butcher's knife."
Lu Changge couldn't figure out what Fu Sheng and butcher's knife were, but he could understand the meaning of this sentence, and his expression suddenly changed, "You want to kill me? Wait! How did you get into the Xuanzhengsi Prison?!"
This is Hyun-Chun-Sien's prison. If the people inside want to go out, the people outside definitely don't want to come in. But just as the people inside can't go out, if the people outside don't get permission or the prisoners sent here to be detained, it is absolutely impossible for the people outside to come in.
The man wearing a strange pure white mask just stood quietly outside the cell. Due to the dim atmosphere, the two empty eyes could not see any charm at all. Lu Changge's soles were cold and his face was covered with fear.
"I came from the darkness, walked under the darkness, and I could come and go freely in any place filled with darkness."
Of course, the person wearing a pure white mask is Li Mengzhou.
Or to be more precise, it is the killer's life from a distant frontier.
Of course, the assassin is to hide in the darkness, and the assassin exposed to the light will be fragile.
Li Mengzhou was able to enter the Xuanzhengsi prison so easily because the magical power of "Silks of Silkworms" could hide his aura, just as he had concealed Bei Zangfeng's perception, but that time he was lucky, but now the situation is a little different.
Although the Xuanzhengsi Prison is very cautious, there is no strong man who can compete with Bei Zangfeng after all. Moreover, Xu Hexian is not here, Jian Shuxuan is not here, and even Mu Nan is not here. The remaining people guarding the prison cannot sense Li Mengzhou's breath. He just needs to avoid his sight and can quietly enter the prison.
This is also a kind of luck, because if you have the ability, you will find that no one is there.
Although the prison of Xuan Zhengsi and the General Office of Xuan Zhengsi are not far apart, Xu Hexian's sight will not be deliberately placed here, which gives Li Mengzhou an opportunity to take advantage of it.
The ability of magical powers to hide breath in "Silksaw Scroll" is similar to the hidden art of the formation craftsman inherited from the formation craftsman of the "Silksaw Scroll" but "Silksaw Scroll" will restrain the breath to the extreme. Unless it is above a great level, it will be difficult to easily detect it.
As an assassin, this ability is naturally a kind of wings, but this ability is not invincible. In addition to losing its effectiveness in front of strong people with a much higher level of cultivation than oneself, the moment they take action, the aura will be fully revealed and there is no way to hide it anymore.
Therefore, if you do not have absolute confidence to kill with one blow and escape from the scene safely, this is undoubtedly a suicide act of falling into the trap.
But because of the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, Li Mengzhou thought about it and decided to kill Lu Changge directly.
Regardless of whether Xie Chunfeng would suspect him, facing Lu Changge, who was already dead, I believe that if I don’t fall to the mountain gate, I would not have started a full-scale war with Ligong Sword Courtyard just because of my suspicion. Otherwise, the question that had been asked every year would not exist, and the war would have begun long ago.
Instead of making this matter more and more complicated, it is better to cut the mess quickly and solve it from the root.
Lu Changge, who was plagued by fear, swallowed his saliva and stared at the pure white mask outside the window. A thunder broke out in his mind. His body, which was trembling in fear, slowly calmed down. He said with a gloomy face: "I understand. You are the only one who can come to kill me at this time, Li Mengzhou!"
Li Mengzhou just looked at Lu Changge quietly, shook his head slightly, and said, "You can't survive if you commit suicide. Things would not have developed to this point, but you step into the abyss step by step, and the butcher knife in my hand will keep you in the abyss forever."
These words are equivalent to indirect recognition.
Li Mengzhou didn't care whether he would reveal his identity, but he wouldn't take the initiative to make it clear, because when Fu Sheng's knife was lifted, Lu Changge was destined to be dead.
He held the Park Knife in his hand tightly. If the breath was exposed, it would be easy for those in the Hyun Zhengsi to detect the strange aura in the prison. However, to kill Lu Changge, and to be outside the cell, he had to use Qihai Lingyuan. All he could do was to fight quickly.
"Li Mengzhou, how dare you kill me directly in the Xuanzhengsi prison? No matter how you are not noticed, it is impossible to get out of here if you kill someone in the Xuanzhengsi prison."
Lu Changge's expression was a little gloomy. Although he wanted to cut Li Mengzhou into pieces, he was obviously not suitable to speak harshly in this situation. Although his mind was often not smart, he was not an idiot. He knew what it means to be a hero.
He tried his best to slow down his voice and said, "It's better for us to discuss it. In fact, it's really unnecessary to make things happen to this point. It's better for us to turn war into pleasing. If you don't cause trouble for me, I won't cause trouble for you."
"As long as you don't kill me, and explain it to Hyun-Zheng-Shiko clearly, this is a misunderstanding. When I go out, I will never report your secret. We will just pretend that nothing has happened. What do you think?"
Li Mengzhou looked at Lu Changge with an expectant look and said with some emotion: "Your thoughts are really beautiful, but do you think I am an idiot? Will you believe such nonsense like you? Even if you are serious, as long as there is a slight possibility of falsehood, I will not let you go."
Lu Changge's face suddenly became gloomy. He was about to shout and attracted the attention of the people guarding the Xuanzhengsi prison, but as the knife light flashed, a chill suddenly appeared on his neck. Lu Changge covered his neck, widened his eyes, and fell unwillingly towards the haystack behind him.
Blood flowed out from his fingers, soaking his clothes. His body trembled a few times on the haystacks and then there was no movement. His wide eyes stared straight at the window, dying with his eyes open.
Li Mengzhou did not stay for a moment, turned around and rushed out of the prison as quickly as possible.
In the cell next to Lu Changge, the prisoner who had satirized Lu Changge was lying at the small window of the cell's iron door. Looking at the scene outside, he faintly heard some movement next door, thinking that it was the little guy who was yelling again, and was about to scold him, but soon noticed an unusual situation.
A pure white face passed outside the cell door, and the two of them looked at each other for a moment.
Then the prisoner suddenly noticed a trace of crisis and was about to retreat, but a Park knife stabbed in through the small window and pierced his forehead.
A burst of breath exploded from the Pu sword, and blood mist filled the prisoner's body swayed twice, and fell to the ground with a bang. The blood quickly soaked the entire cell.
