Ninety-seven: Caesarean section

Dead?

Li Buzhuo slowed down and approached, afraid that Zhang Jinyue would be a sneak attacker if he pretended to die.

He approached Zhang Jinyue with his sword, but Zhang Jinyue still did not move at all, and this distance was enough to make Li Buzhuo kill people suddenly.

It seems to be really dead.

Death is like a lamp extinguishing, and Li Buzhuo's anger that was betrayed in his heart was calmed down.

"It's cheaper for you."

Li Buzhuo had a complicated expression, but he felt a little sorry. He still didn't understand some things. For example, Zhang Jinyue was obviously a Dragon Que, so why did he go to visit Bailong Temple with him at night?

Zhang Jinyue committed suicide, but since his identity was exposed, he could not escape death. He committed suicide decisively and was spared from the pain of being detained and tortured.

"Is it too late to withdraw now?"

Before Zhang Jinyue's words were still dead, Li Buzhuo's heart was a little cold, and suddenly remembered Jiang Taichuan's advice - people who often swayed die the fastest.

Li Buzhuo looked at Zhang Jinyue’s abdomen.

"I have to swallow the letter before I die. What is written in the letter? Since you are going to investigate Bailong Temple, I guess it is because although you are a dragon bird, you don't know what the specific plan of the organization is. So is the one you found in Bailong Temple?"

He was silent for a while, and suddenly he cut open Zhang Jinyue's belly with a sword.

After two years of life on the battlefield and the experience of qi refining in the eyes of the inside, Li Buzhuo knew a lot about the structure of the human body. He reached into Zhang Jinyue's stomach as soon as he reached out.

When doing this, Li Buzhuo held his breath and looked away at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall of the house.

Zhang Jinyue's stomach was still hot. Li Buzhuo found the unchewed piece of letter paper. Then he looked back and saw that there was still some red and white rice porridge on it.

Just then, Li Buzhuo turned his ears and heard footsteps outside the house. Then the door was pushed open. The maid from Zhang Jinyue's house looked at the scene inside the house, her face turned pale, and she was stunned for a while. She quickly lowered her head and turned around and left, her body trembling like a sieve.

"Stop."

Li Buzhuo shouted.

The maid's legs became weak, she turned around and knelt down, and said tremblingly: "Don't, don't kill me, don't kill me...I'm just a mess..."

Li Buzhuo frowned and glanced at the blood-stained Jingchan Jian. He knew that she had misunderstood, but he didn't explain. He just said, "I'm just waiting here. You go to Lingguanya to report to Lord Cao, and he said that the traitor was at Zhang Dushi's house. Zhang Dushi unfortunately died. Have you heard it clearly?"

"I heard clearly, I heard clearly..."

The maid kept repeating her mouth, and she didn't understand what the man in front of her was saying. In her heart, Zhang Jinyue died under the sword of this man. So when Li Buzhuo waved his hand and asked her to leave, the maid hurriedly crawled backwards for two steps and stood up. In order not to anger the man, she slowed down.

It was not until she left Li Buzhuo's sight that the maid's feet became weak and almost fell to the ground. She quickly supported herself and ran out of the house. Her intention was to leave Hedong County immediately, and she dared not report to any official! However, when passers-by saw her, they avoided her, and soon they were stopped by a pair of patrolling county soldiers and asked.

Two quarters of an hour later, thirty people were wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, surrounding the house, and the two county soldiers were holding the maid on both sides.

Cao Yan and Gongcao looked at each other at the door, walked into the room, and saw Zhang Jinyue's body sitting on a chair, with bloody abdomen.

Li Buzhuo stood five steps away, pieced together something on the table, turned around and moved away and said to Cao Yan, "Please look, Lord Cao."

Although Cao Yan was old, the Qi Refiner's eyes were still there. From a distance, he saw some shreds of paper on the table, with moist sheets of paper and the ink was swam into a large ball, and he could hardly recognize any shape. He moved his heart but did not get close to him.

"How did Zhang Dushi die?"

The person who asked about it was You Gongcao.

Li Buzhuo pondered for a moment.

"Zhang Jinyue is a traitor. When I found him, he committed suicide because of his identity and fear of guilt. Before he died, he swallowed a letter." He said, pointing to the table in front of him, "It's this one."

Right Gongcao turned his head and looked at Cao Yan with an inquiry. Cao Yan nodded, walked over and glanced at the letter on the table, and asked Right Gongcao to put it away.

Zuo Gongcao Yao Shunzhi asked suddenly: "You said Zhang Dushi is a traitor, where is the evidence?"

Li Buzhuo raised his eyebrows and glanced at the letter on the table: "Are you deaf or blind?"

Yao Shunzhi snorted coldly, but Cao Yan shook his head and said, "Li Zhanshu, this is not the place to speak. Let's go back to the yamen before discussing this matter. The county lost twenty elite soldiers last night, and today the Lingguan Office caught fire, and Zhang Dushi died again. If the thief is prepared, he may take advantage of the situation."

Li Buzhuo didn't say anything again, but frowned secretly, feeling that Cao Yan's eyes looked over seemed to be with three points of guard.

…………

When he arrived at the main hall of Lingguanya, Li Buzhuo explained all the evidence that Zhang Jinyue asked someone to set up an ambush to attack him, and how he used Qu Lanfeng to find Zhang Jinyue's silence.

The letter found in Zhang Jinyue's stomach was also pieced together. In the words "black oil" and "floating crystal" can be seen in the identifiable handwriting. Black oil is a fuel that is more precious than tinder oil, and floating crystal is more precious than black oil. It looks like ice crystals. A walnut-sized piece can match the effect of ten kilograms of black oil, and is harvested in the extremely cold place of Ganyuan.

If black oil is a resource for restricted sales, floating crystals are absolutely prohibited items that are the same as the machine arm and firearm, and their status is very sensitive. If the movements of the dragon bird are related to the floating crystals, as long as you find out the abnormal movements of the floating crystals in Youzhou recently, you can pull out the dragon bird's tail one more point.

Li Buzhuo already knew the danger. Although he thought of this, he did not take the initiative to say it, just waiting for others to speak out.

Cao Yan pondered for a while, but put down the letter and said, "The authenticity of this letter is not yet determined. If you go to check it rashly, you may be trapped by the dragon bird again."

When Cao Yan spoke, everyone looked at Li Buzhuo with unknown gazes.

Li Buzhuo didn't think much about it, thinking that he had survived the ambush, and found Zhang Jinyue, the traitor. Everyone was asking for his own meaning, so he said, "Zhang Jinyue would not have thought that I could find him, so this letter must not have been prepared in advance. He would rather die than destroy the letter. It can be seen that the content is very important and should be worth checking."

"You said Zhang Dushi is a traitor, but he is a traitor?"

There was suddenly someone in the main hall.

Li Buzhuo thought that the person who spoke was Yao Shunzhi, but when he turned around, he saw that it was Huo Xian, a cavalry general in the 72nd Battalion of the Shenzha Army in Hedong County, Xinfeng Prefecture.

The Shenzha Army is directly under the jurisdiction of the Shenzha Company on the left and right forbidden Shenzha Company and does not belong to the Hedong County system. Therefore, the 500 elite soldiers under the 72nd Battalion under Huo Xian have always been unwilling to worry about the recent sensation of Hedong County.

But since that day, the dragon birds have indeed appeared in Qingkou Lane, Hedong County, and even these rebels are arrogant and slaughtering the Tiangong personnel, Huo Xian is finally unable to stay out of the matter.
