Chapter 147 Their goal is to explore the dragon map!
Zeng Anmin looked down at the corpses.
Then he looked up at Liu Ji: "The body found on Haishi 2, right?"
Liu Ji nodded seriously.
That means around ten o'clock in the evening.
Around ten o'clock, Huang Yuangao and these slaves were all wearing clothes?
how? An old official doesn't go to bed after ten o'clock in the evening. How can he still think about admiring peach blossoms in the yard? ?
"Huang Yuangao's death was at the wrong time."
Zeng Anmin looked at Liu Ji and asked lightly:
"When will the Yamen be released?"
Liu Ji also had a clue at this time, and he didn't dare to be negligent in any way. He bowed his head and replied respectfully:
"The time when Huang Gong returns to the hospital is usually Xu Shi."
That is to say, Huang Yuangao returned to his yard from get off work around seven o'clock in the evening.
Zeng Anmin felt vaguely that he seemed to have touched the truth.
He took a deep look at Liu Ji.
Then he said: "Send me all the purchase records of the kerosene vendors."
With that said, he led the way outside.
Not long after, they arrived at the yard where Huang Yuangao died.
He and Bai Ziqing sat opposite each other.
Waiting quietly for Liu Ji.
"Brother Quan Fu has something to look forward to?"
Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin in surprise.
At this time, they were the only two people in the yard.
Zeng Anmin grinned, raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Ziqing and asked:
"Why did Brother Bai say this?"
Bai Ziqing smiled shyly: "Brother Quan Fu, I still understand that every time you are about to reveal the truth, your expression will be..."
Having said this, Bai Ziqing pointed at his narrowed eyes.
"They all have this expression."
Zeng Anmin didn't expect that Bai Ziqing observed him very carefully.
He smiled lightly, without commenting, but asked Bai Ziqing:
"Did you find anything wrong when you asked Liu Ji just now?"
Bai Ziqing heard this.
He touched his tilted chin.
There was contemplation in his tone:
"Do you doubt Liu Ji?"
"Haha."
Zeng Anmin smiled and shook his head: "Let's wait until he sends the purchase documents and then read it."
Bai Ziqing was a little confused.
"Sir, the record you want."
Not long after, Liu Ji respectfully brought several people with him to deliver several boxes of bills.
Several big boxes.
The paper inside must weigh nearly a hundred kilograms.
"Well, let that bastard stay and you all step back."
Zeng Anmin's eyes looked towards Wang Wu.
"Yes."
Liu Ji did not dare to be negligent and led his subordinates towards the outside of the courtyard.
There were three people left in the yard.
Zeng Anmin, Bai Ziqing, and that Wang Wu.
"My lord..."
When Wang Wu saw Zeng Anmin's eyes falling on him, he felt a little cautious for a moment.
Zeng Anmin laughed softly, stood up slowly, came to Wang Wu's side, reached out and patted his shoulder gently:
"You don't have to be afraid."
"Just a few questions for you."
There was a smile on Zeng Anmin's face.
Wang Wu was a little scared after hearing Zeng Anmin's words.
His body was always tense and he swallowed:
"Excuse me, Sir."
Zeng Anmin's lips curled up slightly, and then he looked towards the big boxes.
After looking around, he said calmly:
"Who sees these kerosene records?"
Although Wang Wu was a little confused, he still answered seriously:
"Shangguan, Mr. Liu is watching."
"Oh."
Zeng Anmin stared at him straightly, his aura relaxed, and his voice was quiet:
"You can't lie."
Wang Wu's body trembled and he knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound and kowtowed:
"Don't dare to deceive in the slightest."
"That's it."
Zeng Anmin looked at him with a half-smile, then the old god returned to his seat, crossed his legs and stared at Wang Wu who was kneeling on the ground and said:
"Look up at me."
Wang Wu raised his head tremblingly.
It was only when he noticed Zeng Anmin's lavender eyes.
His body trembled violently, and his eyes became blank.
Zeng Anmin’s voice was very soft:
"Let me ask you, did you smell anything strange when the fire broke out that night?"
Wang Wu said blankly: "I smell it..."
oh?
Zeng Anmin's lavender eyes narrowed.
He had just cast Questioning Heart on Wang Wu.
Then, he withdrew his questions.
Wang Wu's body shook violently.
He lowered his head in extreme fear, not daring to take any offense.
"Go down."
Zeng Anmin waved his hand lightly.
"Yes."
Wang Wu left the yard in fear.
…………
"Did you just ask questions about this little official?"
Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin and asked.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Zeng Anmin glanced at him, then focused on the big boxes, stretched out his hand to Bai Ziqing, hooked his fingers and said:
"Stop sitting there and check the kerosene."
Whether it's Liu Ji or Wang Wu.
Both men have proven what they said.
Arsonists have tinder.
"Uh."
Bai Ziqing's face froze.
There are so many records, one by one, I don’t know when I will see them.
"Alas."
He sighed deeply and followed Zeng Anmin to start investigating bit by bit.
Zeng Anmin was of the sixth grade of Confucianism and Taoism.
With the help of Haoran Zhengqi, he was able to check these records very quickly.
But it can’t handle the large volume.
Finally, when it gets dark.
He put down the last piece of paper in his hand.
His eyes flickered with thought.
"There is indeed no problem. Whether it is a vendor or a purchaser, these records are correct."
"No one buys in a big way, and no one divides the purchases into lines and buys from different places and finally converges them into one place..."
Thinking of this, Zeng Anmin's brows knitted together.
So what's going on?
Could it be that the kerosene appeared out of thin air?
"How about going to eat something first?"
Bai Ziqing looked up at the moonlight, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The two of them spent almost three hours exploring these records in the yard.
"Hoo~"
Zeng Anmin breathed a sigh of relief.
The time for investigating the case is indeed very tight.
But no matter what, the young master cannot be hungry.
He thought for a while, then nodded and said:
"Okay, let's go."
"Let's go to your Wangxianju."
A smile also appeared on Bai Ziqing's face. He swallowed subconsciously and said:
"The food at Wangxianju is really unforgettable. I don't know how the chef made it. It doesn't smell like anything, but it's delicious when you eat it."
"Let's go."
Zeng Anmin glanced at him and said nothing.
The two stepped out of the yard.
"Shangguan, do you have any new clues?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Ji was still standing respectfully outside the hospital, waiting for Zeng Anmin and Bai Ziqing.
Zeng Anmin glanced at him indifferently and said nothing: "Bai Ti and I both went out and came back to investigate the case again."
"Yes."
Liu Ji saluted their backs.
……
"This Xuanjing Division hasn't changed much."
Bai Ziqing and Zeng Anmin were walking in the corridor. Looking at this familiar environment, he sighed:
"Remember that yard?"
“It was in the dry well in that yard that I found the Dragon Surveying Picture.”
Times have changed, and more than half a year has passed since the time travel.
Zeng Anmin smiled and said: "Of course I remember."
What else would he say.
Then his body shook violently.
He stood there for a long time without moving.
What's wrong? ?
Bai Ziqing saw Zeng Anmin pause, with a look of confusion on his face. Dragon survey?
Zeng Anmin suddenly raised his head and looked towards the Picture Academy.
Without hesitation, he immediately stepped towards the yard.
"Huh?"
Bai Ziqing caught up with Zeng Anmin in confusion.
The two of them stepped into the Zituyuan together.
Zeng Anmin said nothing and looked toward the main hall.
The door to the main hall is open.
When he saw the huge dragon survey in the Zituyuan.
My heart relaxed slightly.
Worry too much.
It was only when he approached the Dragon Kantu.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
His eyes suddenly trembled.
"Who dares to break into Zituyuan?!"
Several voices suddenly sounded.
Rushed out of the main hall.
Soon, they were on alert.
Zeng Anmin looked up.
A smile appeared on his face.
The construction of the Longtu Picture Academy was due to an oversight by my father at that time.
The current security force is much more alert than before.
"Master Zeng??"
After the leading guard saw the smile on Zeng Anmin's face, his expression froze slightly at first.
Then his eyes widened:
"Didn't you go to the capital with Mr. Zeng? Why are you back?"
"Tsk, luckily there are still people who know me."
Zeng Anmin also smiled when he saw officials he was familiar with in the past.
He smiled at the man and said:
"Come back and have a look, what? You're not welcome?"
"Young master Zeng said this, didn't he just tease me? Come on, please come in!"
The man happily came to Zeng Anmin's side and asked Zeng Anmin to walk toward the house together.
Zeng Anmin followed him to the main hall.
However, his eyes still fell on the dragon exploration map in the center of the main hall.
After getting close.
Zeng Anmin's eyes suddenly trembled.
My heart froze for a moment.
“The dragon survey was transferred to someone else!!”
There is almost no stagnation.
He instantly noticed something was wrong with the dragon survey.
Because no one in this world knows Dragon Kantu better than him! !
In his sea of consciousness.
He sees the shadow of Kanlongtu every day!
Even if he closes his eyes now, he can draw a picture of the dragon.
Although the dragon exploration map in front of me doesn't look any different.
But Zeng Anmin could still see the clues in some of the line processing at a glance! !
moment.
A thread running through Zeng Anmin's mind was figured out by him.
“That’s it!!”
Zeng Anmin stared hard at the "Dragon Survey"
There was a hint of coldness in the voice.
"What?"
Bai Ziqing on the side heard this.
He was in high spirits!
He looked at Zeng Anmin with great expectation.
"What turned out to be like this?"
The man who led Zeng Anmin into the main hall was also confused.
"I know the truth."
Zeng Anmin took a deep breath.
He did not hesitate and quickly said to Bai Ziqing: "Call that Liu Ji over."
As soon as Zeng Anmin finished speaking, Bai Ziqing tiptoed out of the hospital.
The speed is like a ghost.
In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"This..."
All the guards looked at Zeng Anmin in confusion.
Zeng Anmin didn't speak, just found a place to sit down.
Close your eyes and think slowly.
"Poof!"
He hadn't thought about it for long.
Then he saw Bai Ziqing rushing over carrying Liu Ji.
With a casual throw, Liu Ji was thrown in front of Zeng Anmin.
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy...this..."
Liu Ji felt numb. He raised his head blankly and looked at Zeng Anmin and Bai Ziqing.
"Lord Sheriff!"
When the guards saw Bai Ziqing's actions, their expressions changed drastically. They all pulled out their weapons from their waists and stared at Bai Ziqing.
After Liu Ji saw it, his face turned pale: "Put your knives away!!"
His voice was a little sad.
These second-rate goods!
Don't you even look at who is standing in front of you? !
That's the imperial envoy from Beijing!
Do you dare to draw a knife randomly? ? !
Want to die? !
"Governor Liu."
Zeng Anmin looked at Liu Ji deeply, and there was a hint of gloom in his voice:
"Now, answer me truthfully, what did you smell on that day when the fire was set?!"
This is an extremely important clue.
"If you tell the truth, I can keep you safe, but if you still dare to hide something..."
Zeng Anmin's eyes flashed with danger:
"You will die miserably."
really.
As soon as Zeng Anmin said this.
Liu Ji's body trembled violently.
He raised his head, his face became even paler, and he looked at Zeng Anmin tremblingly:
"Shang...shangguan...down here, I..."
"Hmph!"
See his performance.
Zeng Anmin knew it.
The Dragon Survey map was dropped, there was only one possibility.
People from the demon tribe did it!
The evil spirit of the demon people has never died! !
"There is a demon tribe causing trouble in the territory and killing your superior officer. You know you are to blame, so you concealed it, right?"
Zeng Anmin's eyes flashed with an extremely fierce look.
After Liu Ji heard what Zeng Anmin said.
His body slowly softened.
Obviously.
Zeng Anmin's words touched his heart.
"How do you know it's a demon clan?"
Bai Ziqing was stunned.
From Liu Ji's performance, he understood.
Zeng Anmin was right.
But he was also present at everything that just happened.
Why can't I find any monsters causing trouble? ? ?
Zeng Anmin glanced at him.
I know that the demon clan is obsessed with the dragon survey map, and I discovered it from this fake dragon survey map.
But this must not be said.
This is an extremely important secret.
It was also a secret that only Zeng Anmin and his father knew.
He breathed a sigh of relief slowly, with a hint of gloom in his voice:
"I just thought of it too."
"I have read all the records in those big boxes and found no clues at all."
"Then there is a very high probability that the ignition substance of the arson was not kerosene."
"Besides the fact that kerosene can ignite a building in such a short period of time... there is another possibility."
Zeng Anmin looked at Bai Ziqing with a faint look: "Cultivation of foreigners, or demons."
After speaking, he glanced at Liu Ji who was lying limply on the ground.
The face is shining with light:
"And Liu Ji..."
Having said this, he looked at Liu Ji coldly: "What grade of Confucianism are you?"
Liu Ji looked up with a pale face: "Seventh grade."
"Hmph!"
Zeng Anmin sneered: "A seventh-grade Confucian cultivator must be able to sense the aura of the demon clan. You knew that night that the demon clan was involved in the arson case, right?"
Liu Ji said nothing.
The body became a little limp.
"No, the demon tribe appeared in the south of the Yangtze River in my Great Holy Dynasty..."
Bai Ziqing looked at Zeng Anmin hesitantly.
Zeng Anmin nodded calmly: "So, we can now focus on Huang Yuangao's death."
"Huh?"
Everyone looked sharply towards Zeng Anmin.
