Ninety-five: walk in the water

"What does that Yanshi Machinery look like?" Cao Yan asked.

"He was 1.5 meters tall, with three sides and four arms, and four scimitars. The three faces were angry, one laughed, and the other cried."

Li Buzhuo thought about it and carefully described the appearance of Yanshi Machinery.

The Right Gongcao was recorded in paper and notes, saying, "There are only a hundred craftsmen of the Central Emperor of the Sixteen Prefectures. Since you know the appearance of the Mechanism, you can find out the history."

Even though he said that, the solemn atmosphere in the inner hall did not ease at all.

The craftsman was protected by the Craftsman League. As a alliance that united the craftsmen of the world, the Craftsman League had a transcendent status. Even when revising the laws of the Tiangong, the interests of the Craftsman League must be considered. It is not a matter of investigation.

"Even if you can find the origin, it will not take a short time to find out. The remnants of Longque have always been low-key. Suddenly, they are so violent that someone angered them..."

The person who spoke was Zuo Gongcao Yao Shunzhi. When he spoke, he glanced at Li Buzhuo.

The implication is that Li Buzhuo killed a red robe in Qingkou Lane, which led to the intensification of the conflict.

Li Buzhuo and Yao had a long time ago. Since he became the clerk, he has had some contacts with several Yao's colleagues. Both sides have tacitly agreed and did not mention the matter of the winery.

At this time, Li Buzhuo escaped from death, but he had already held his anger and looked back with his eyebrows.

"You Yao Shunzhi said you want to give way to the remnants of Longque's troops and let them develop steadily in Hedong County? I don't know if this is what you mean or what the Yao family in Hedong means."

Yao Shunzhi's face turned dark.

"You can eat rice randomly. If you talk randomly, be careful of your tongue."

Said meaningfully.

"Also, you said you were ambushed with the other two, why did they die, but you didn't even get hurt at all..."

Cao Yan suddenly interrupted Yao Shunzhi: "Shut up, do you still have the leisure to fight in the midst of dire straits!"

Yao Shunzhi was stunned and lowered his head.

Although the Yao family, as a prominent local family, has a higher reputation than the Lingguan Office, he is not the leader of the Yao family, and he will not show disrespect in front of a county's spiritual officials.

Li Buzhuo looked at Cao Yan in surprise. The spirit official of Hedong County who was about to retire was already evasive about the remnants of Longque's family, and his words were beyond his expectations.

Cao Yan is not a short-sighted person who has been able to manage a county in the prosperous Middle Land for more than ten years, and has never had any trouble in both people's livelihood and political affairs. He knows that since Longque has made any moves in Hedong County, he has made plans. Even if Li Buzhuo does not intensify the conflict, what should come will come.

He scolded him, and seeing that Yao Shunzhi didn't talk much, Cao Yan continued: "The previous demonic troubles must have been done by them. The priority is to find out their purpose first." He said that, looking at Li Buzhuo, "You can go all night and go to rest first."

Leaving the inner hall, Li Buzhuo rested in the yamen's official house. As the only two survivors attacked outside the Boiling and Refining Department last night, his safety was also the top priority.

The Lingguan Officer's House is a place where officials in the yamen live when they are busy with work and are inconvenient to go home. It is simple to arrange but cleaned.

The brighter sky shone through the window lattice on the indigo mattress on the bed. Li Buzhuo lowered his head and took off the bamboo tube around his waist.

The awakened Qu Lan bee buzzed and hit the bamboo tube wall, making a crackling sound.

After sitting cross-legged on the bed, Li Buzhuo could not calm down and could not enter the state of sitting, looking at himself and observing himself.

He just swallowed a small essence pill to replenish consumption, quietly closing his eyes to rest.

When it was the end of the world, Li Buzhuo was always thinking about the identity of the traitor.

In the Lingguan Office, except for the twenty-one ambushed county soldiers, they did not inform anyone that the news of setting up an ambush in the Casting and Refining Division last night, most of the traitors were in the Casting and Refining Division. Combined with the leak of the news that the Casting and Refining Division transported the iron, this inference should be correct.

But a name always appears in Li Buzhuo's mind.

At this moment, there was a deafening sound of gongs outside, and someone shouted loudly.

"It's gone, it's gone!"

Li Buzhuo immediately got up from the bed and rushed out the door. Smoke rolled in the north of Lingguanya.

The servant carrying the water bucket ran past Li Buzhuo with a strange look. The fire prevention measures for important buildings in Lingguanya were very strict. Especially in the north, even the talismans of the fish and dragon kisses were blessed by talismans. When the climate was dry, it could gather moisture to prevent fire. Why did such a big fire suddenly start today?

Li Buzhuo's eyes flashed and he quickly walked towards the evidence room in the back hall in the north. On the way, he ran into Cao Yan, who was scolding his subordinates, with a burning and gloomy face.

Seeing Cao Yan's expression, Li Buzhuo felt a little nervous and asked, "Sir Cao, why did he suddenly leave the water?"

When Cao Yan saw Li Buzhuo, his face froze for a moment before saying muffled: "That man is dead and his neck is twisted."

Now, in the Lingguan Office, except for the living that Li Buzhuo brought back last night, no one's death could make Cao Yan show such a look.

To Cao Yan's surprise, Li Buzhuo's face changed slightly, so he nodded and went to the back hall.

When he arrived at the back hall, he did not enter the newly extinguished room. Li Buzhuo saw the body lying on the shroud.

This time it's really a corpse.

He still had a gem in his chest, but his hair was gone and his big arms were exposed, his neck and cheeks were burning black.

This is not the cause of his death.

His head had been twisted toward his back.

"I am incompetent. Once this person dies, the clues that are almost clueless will be cut off. The twenty elite soldiers die meaninglessly." Cao Yan sighed, "The thief set fire in the inner treasury and the back hall at the same time. I am in the inner treasury first. When I think that his target might be the living mouth of the dragon bird, it is too late."

"Has the person caught it?"

Li Buzhuo looked down at the corpse, and his neck twisting method was neat and neat, but this did not mean anything. People with this method could throw a stone into the street and hit one.

Cao Yan shook his head.

This answer was as expected by Li Buzhuo, and Cao Yan would not sigh if he wanted to catch the man.

After saying that, Li Buzhuo walked towards the back door of Lingguanya. Cao Yan wanted to let him stay in Lingguanya for the safety of Li Buzhuo, but now the inner treasury and back hall evidence rooms were set on fire, which shows that Lingguanya was not safe. After admonishing him, he did not try to keep him.

After leaving the Lingguanya, Li Buzhuo walked to the dog meat shop at the end of Qingliang Street. The shop he saw was not there a few days ago. When asked where he was injured, he fell down and was recuperating at home. Li Buzhuo ordered a bowl of dog meat with more spicy food, drank the soup and meat, wiped off the sweat on his forehead, and his whole body was as hot as if he was about to get fire, so he walked towards the east of the county.

After walking for a while, he turned into an alley and pulled out the plug of the bamboo tube around his waist.

Qu Lanfeng was dizzy when she flew out, and stopped in the alley for a while, and suddenly flapped her wings and flew towards the depths of the alley.

Li Buzhuo's face darkened, put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and walked into the alley.
