Chapter 18: Scientific Experiment Kills People

As soon as Shi Chi went out, a servant ran over in a panic and shouted: "Master, it's not good!"

Schi said unhappily: "What's the matter?"

The servant pointed behind his finger and said, "There are people at our mansion..." In a hurry, he couldn't express his meaning, and finally said, "You'd better go and take a look."

After hearing this, Schi walked quickly towards the door, and I quickly got up and followed.

At this time, a group of servants had gathered around the mansion gate, and dozens of guards were martial law in front of the gate. Since the servants could not approach, they were talking in a low voice. Shi Chi said with a sinister face: "Whatever you do around here, do your own things!" The servants then scattered.

When the guards saw the master appear, they dodged a road and gave way out of the gate of the General's Mansion. I hid behind Shi Chi and looked forward. I was shocked. I saw that the two copper lion-headed gates of the General's Mansion were covered with blood seals. Some of the blood was not dry, and the blood was still winding downwards. I couldn't help but say, "Who is this? I'm too brave. How dare I write random drawings on the gate of the General's Mansion?"

I thought Schi would be furious, but he didn't expect that his expression suddenly became serious. He looked at the bloody handprints on the door for a while before he asked the captain of the guard in a daze: "When did you find it?"

The captain said with anger, "Just when it was just the turn of Bei Jue to change his value."

"Where is the original guard?"

The captain waved his hand and someone raised the 12 door panels, which were 12 cold corpses. They lifted the shroud and each of them suffered a fatal blow on the neck. The blood marks were pressed on the blood of these guards.

At this moment, I couldn't help but clenched my fists in anger, and was also a little surprised. The other party slaughtered all the guards in front of the Marshal's Mansion in broad daylight. The strength of martial arts was still the second. The difficulty was that he had to change the guards without knowing it. He had to find out that he had to change the guards. Although there were no passers-by in a single street, these guards' more responsibility was to act as ceremonial guards. However, it was difficult to solve them quietly in a very short period of time. This showed that the other party not only took action quickly, but also more than one person!

While Schi talked to the guards, I also deliberately counted the number of bloody handprints on the door. I just counted the fifth one, and Schi said coldly: "No need to count, there are 13."

I subconsciously said, "What does it mean?"

Schi said: "From your grandfather, plus my wife and your two uncles, as well as your brothers and your sister, you all the people in our Shi family!"

I said astonished: "Damn, this is going to kill us all!"

The captain of the guard said ashamed: "I am in a position of negligence. Please punish me."

Shi Chi's expression was quiet, and he could not see his joy and anger: "It's not your business, you should immediately inform the marshal and the second and third masters, and let them rush back as soon as possible."

"yes!"

Schi looked at the bloody handprints on the door and couldn't say anything: "Clean, strengthen the access control, and refuse all visitors. From now on, only entry and not exit."

The guards followed one by one. At this moment, Stilyang, Stilwell and others had arrived. Someone called a bucket of water and poured it down the gate. The water was mixed with blood. It flowed down the steps in front of the Marshal's Mansion. Several people looked at each other in shock. Stilwell said seriously: "Come with me."

It was the last conference hall. Shi Chi sat upright in the handsome man's face, frowning with his brows. He didn't say anything, and no one dared to ask. Shi Diyang consciously took on the temporary presiding, stood on the steps at the door and dispatched troops to strengthen the guards. Soon, the entire Shi Mansion heard the continuous sound of iron armor, and there were constant collisions of weapons. Most of the servants were still ignorant of the situation ahead, but the soldiers were already facing a great enemy, and the atmosphere was depressing and tense.

It took less than half an hour to go back to his house from the yamen. When the three brothers met, Shi Chi just nodded slightly with a calm face. Shi Fei and Shi Dong seemed to know the origin, and they all sat silently in their seats, waiting for Shi Cundao.

An hour later, Shi Cundao strode into it and asked Shi Chi the first sentence: "Come?"

Schi nodded and said, "Here you come."

Shi Cundao pressed the handle of the knife with his hand and said expressionlessly: "I'm finally here."

The questions and answers of these two people made us a little bit puzzled. We were next to me and asked several times that we didn't dare. He had a sudden inspiration, touched me, and then whispered. His meaning was very obvious. I am the favorite of the Shi family now, and it was the most suitable for me to speak. I couldn't help but be curious and stammered: "Uh... Grandpa."

Shi Cundao waved his hand: "I know what you want to ask." He looked around at the three brothers of the Shi family and said, "I think it's time to tell them." Old Shi said this, and Shi Chi and others naturally did not dare to object, but just looked solemn.

Shi Cundao pondered for a moment and said, "Where do you start from - Well, let's start from 40 years ago. I remember that Chi'er had just turned 12 years old that year. Fei'er was still a child with a drooping hair. Speaking of which, you probably don't know much about this past event, right?" Shi Fei said, "I heard my father talk about it a few times after I remember it, but I didn't mention it again."

Shi Cundao nodded and said, "I told you this to prevent you from taking it lightly. I always remember that there is a strong enemy outside the Shi family. Later, after more than ten years, I didn't see that person appear. I thought he had no grudges and secretly blamed himself for his narrow-mindedness. I didn't expect that after 40 years, he finally came!"

I immediately grabbed the keywords: that person, 40 years old, this is still an old story.

Shi Cun revealed his god for a while and said: "40 years ago, my Honglie Empire made a big deal or something, and it was a small thing: At that time, the late emperor was still alive, and the federal continent and the Heijis continent were in peace, and there was no position as a Grand Marshal in the army. At that time, it was divided into three factions: Shenfeng Camp was in charge of the garrison in the capital, Huaiyuan Army inspected the border peace, Fuhua Army inspected the domestic civil unrest, and was responsible for transporting and relief during disasters. The three armies each performed their abilities and had equal status, but in this way, they would inevitably have intrigue and fight for interests. Later, the three armies were disagreeing and Heijis was stupid.

When he was fumbling, the first emperor suddenly made a decision, which was to select a marshal to command the three armies, so he held a top recruitment meeting in the capital. This selection was said to be a candidate for no limit. In fact, everyone knew it well that it would be produced in the army in the end. At that time, my grandfather, who followed your grandfather, had already achieved the position of general in the Fuhua Army, and naturally he yearned for it. At that time, countless young talents gathered under the feet of the emperor, followed by a thirty-three-day literary exam and an eighteen-day martial exam. In the end, two people stood out."

I jerked and said, "Why do you have to take the exam for so long?"

Shi Cundao smiled and said, "The Grand Marshal is of great importance, and naturally he must be examined in all aspects. To be honest, those questions at that time made me a little confused. Among them, I didn't mention the military strategy and strategy, and even recite poems and write lyrics on paintings. The most confusing thing is that I even have to write about what snacks I like to eat and what wine I like to drink."

I thought to myself: "This is probably a psychological test. Now some companies are recruiting, don't they even need to fill in the blood type of the constellation?" I said, "What happened later, there is no need to say that one of these two people must be grandpa, and the other is 'that person'?"

Shi Cundao said: "No," he said naturally, "The man's name is Wei Wuji, and he was a guerrilla captain in Huaiyuan's army. He was said to have a humble official position, but it was rare for him to be promoted by civilians and gain military merits. Moreover, he was only in his early 20s at that time, so he could say that his future was promising."

I said, "I understand, and then he lost in the competition, failed to become the Grand Marshal, and then he held a grudge."

"He didn't lose!" Shi Cundao briefly threw out three words.

This time, not only Shi Diyang and others were surprised, but even the three brothers of the Shi family were disgraced. Over the years, they had only heard of Wei Wuji, but they did not know the specific details. He was surprised to hear Shi Cundao say this.

Shi Cundao used his hand to sort out his gray hair and said calmly: "Who is better or weak when it comes to chanting poems is good to me, but I will only lead troops for half my life, and I have passed some small battles. If I say that I will share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, I will not have the literati's colorful instincts, and the books I read are all military books that arrange troops. Wei Wuji is famous for his good literary talent. I think I am not as far as him in this regard."

Stilyang said: "Grandfather was relieved. When war was not under the moon. Even though Wei Wuji had good literary talent, wasn't he a playboy with a scheming?"

Shi Cundao said: "I also had this idea at that time, but later I confirmed that I was wrong. After more than 50 days of competition, there were only two of us left, so we were rowing out military tactics in front of the palace of the late emperor. At that time, we each led 5,000 soldiers from the Shenfeng camp, and practiced based on the terrain. I was despised. First, I was greedy for me and made a rash progress. I was trapped in the formation by Wei Wuji. When I retreated, I was hesitant, and then almost wiped out the entire army."

Now no one talks. After a long time, I reluctantly said: "Maybe he can only talk about war on paper. That... Isn't there any martial arts competition? Grandpa is so skilled in martial arts. I guess he won the championship in the martial arts competition?"

Shi Cundao sighed and said, "At that time, I was promoted to the middle stage of the swordsman in my forties. I was expected to win a game in the competition. Unexpectedly, Wei Wuji was still very good at a young age. In the subsequent martial arts competition... I lost again."

"Ah?" I grew up in surprise and wanted to smooth things over the old man, but I didn't know what to say no matter what. Stilyang and others looked at each other and the three brothers of the Shi family were in a cold situation again.

Shi Cundao smiled bitterly and said, "I am not Wei Wuji's opponent in the wisdom and martial arts. I can be said to have lost a lot."

I subconsciously said, "How come you became the Grand Marshal in the end?"

Shi Chi glared at me fiercely, and I realized that this sentence was a bit of a stinging man's backbone, but it was too late to regret it.

Shi Cundao was not angry and said lightly: "The final result will be waited for the First Emperor three days to announce. People all believe that Wei Wuji is the best candidate for the Grand Marshal. He has already held a celebration banquet for him in advance. Prime Minister Shen Bing also added fuel to the fire, saying that no matter who is elected, he can marry his only daughter. Chi'er was already 12 years old at that time, and Shen Bing's favorite was naturally Wei Wuji."

I asked quickly, "What's next?"

Shi Cundao said: "I still can't figure out what happened later. Three days later, the first emperor ascended the palace and announced it was my name!"

I smiled and nodded thoughtfully - what is there to be puzzled? Anyone with a discerning eye can understand that although Shi Cundao is not as talented as Wei Wuji, his family background is prominent and he is a typical second-generation official. It must be that his father, Lao Shi, had done something secretly, but I can't figure it out at all. It is normal for officials to protect each other, but how did Lao Shi do what the emperor did when he was the emperor? This is really a question. The old emperor was so stupid that he finally took the lead and destroyed his country? This made me a little... puzzled. Obviously, all the old and young people in the Shi family thought of this, and seeing Shi Cundao's expressions couldn't help but be a little ambiguous. Of course, no one was so stupid that he said it.

Lao Shi seemed to see our thoughts and said seriously: "Your Taizu has been upright all his life, and it is definitely not what you think!"

I have revealed this article without mentioning it, and said curiously: "Even if this is the case, there is no grudge between Wei Wuji and his grandfather. Grandpa's marshal was named by the emperor. If he wants to hate him, he should hate the emperor."

Shi Dong said: "This kid doesn't understand. Wei Wuji has not won the position of commander. After this battle, he still has a broad future. Why did he run away in anger?"

Shi Cundao sighed and said, "Only a few people in the Honglie Empire know the whole story." He suddenly turned to Shi Chidao, "Chi'er, have you figured out the joints after so many years?"

Shi Chi was also a little confused, but after he yelled, he blurted out: "Is it related to Shen Bing's sudden death?" Shi Fei and Shi Dong were surprised and said: "Prime Minister Shen's death has something to do with Wei Wuji?"

Shi Cundao sighed: "Shen Bing's death was a great taboo in the court, and now I'm not telling you anything - yes, Shen Bing did not die of sudden illness at all, but was killed by Wei Wuji."

Shi Fei was shocked and said incoherently: "Why is this? Didn't Shen Bing still want to marry his daughter to him?"

Shi Cundao said: "Wrong, Shen Bing has a word first. Who took the position of coaching to marry his daughter? Wei Wuji was defeated. I already have a wife. Shen Bing naturally refused to make her daughter a baby for me, but she didn't want to get a cheaper one. The old man played Hu Lai and wanted to find another son-in-law for Miss Shen."

I whispered, "This old man is not a good thing either."

Shi Cundao said: "Actually, things are not turning around at this time. There is one person who still plays a crucial role, that is, Miss Shen's attitude. If she could withstand the public's words and insist on marrying Wei Wuji, it would not have become a good story in the future."

I said, "What is her attitude?"

Shi Cundao paused and said a little awkwardly: "It's a pity that women in the world are short-sighted. This Miss Shen said something that is still circulated by people..."

Almost everyone said in unison: "What did she say?"

Shi Cundao said awkwardly: "She said she would rather marry into the Marshal's Mansion as a concubine than marry Wei Wuji as a wife."

I said with a funny look, "This is also the one who Ning Ning is crying in BMW."

Shi Cundao said: "But Wei Wuji was very fond of Miss Chen. After losing the election, he prepared four-color gifts to the Shen family to propose marriage. I have expressed my opinion on this matter. I have a deep relationship with your mother and have politely declined Shen Bing, in order to achieve the beauty of becoming a human being."

Shi Chi's expression was complicated, as if he was holding his smile but he didn't dare to laugh, "No wonder my mother had some quarrels with her father during that time, it turned out to be..." The following words were glared back by Shi Cundao. Shi Fei and Shi Dong couldn't help laughing. I also saw that the deep feelings were true or false. Anyway, the old man was a little strict with his wife, so it was not difficult to imagine that Mrs. Shi must have scolded Miss Chen a lot...

Shi Cundao coughed twice and said, "The person who responded to Wei Wuji was the famous saying of Miss Chen. Wei Wuji was deeply stimulated and was angry. Suddenly, one night he jumped into the Prime Minister's Mansion and killed Prime Minister Chen, his wife and Miss Chen's family of three. Miss Chen's death was the worst, and he was raped and then killed..."

This sentence changed and freezes the atmosphere to the lowest point. After a long time, Shi Fei said in shock: "No wonder...No wonder Shen Bing's death was so big that all officials only received a briefing, saying that they died suddenly due to an emergency illness, and then they disappeared. It turned out that they died of a bad life."

Shi Cundao said: "This incident was a great humiliation by the court. Several people who knew the inside story were also banned. I only learned about it after taking office."

I said angrily: "If someone like Shen Bing and Miss Shen is killed, they will be killed. At most, Wei Wuji is a petty person, but he shouldn't have raped Miss Chen first and then killed him, so he's dirty."

Shi Cundao looked at me deeply and said, "Don't say anything like this." Finally, he added, "But you are right."

I asked, "Then what did Wei Wuji do later?"

Shi Cundao said quietly: "No one of you knows it. Wei Wuji came to our Shi family later."

Everyone said in a terrifying manner: "What's next?"

Shi Cundao said with his back: "I and your Taizu have repelled. His purpose is very clear. He will kill us all at the beginning!"

Stilyan said: "His he actually took his anger on your head?"

Shi Cundao said: "That's natural. If it weren't for me, he would have been handsome and beautiful. What he hated the most was me."

I said, "Do you suspect that what happened today has to do with Wei Wuji?"

Shi Cundao nodded.

I thought about it and said, "Have you not offended others in the past few years? Maybe it's not Wei Wuji?"

Shi Cundao said: "You will understand if I say something--on the night when the Prime Minister's Mansion was in trouble, three bloody handprints were taken on the door."

I suddenly said, "Then it's no problem. Over the years, this has become a habit before he kills people."

Stilwell said angrily: "I'm too bullying. I'll ask people to search the whole city and I will definitely capture this thief!"

I pressed my hands and said, "Sit down quickly. Grandpa has been guarding against him for 40 years. If you use your method, you can catch Wei Wuji. Didn't you say that the Shi family is always a big deal?"

"Goro is right." Shi Cundao's words made Stilwell extinguish the fire and sat down dejectedly. Shi Cundao said: "I have been guarding him for 40 years, but I can't say I'm restless. I've always felt uneasy. When he comes, he has put aside my thoughts."
