Section 106: Searching for Traces

A bowl of water was sprinkled into the air, but it did not fall down immediately, but diluted in the air and turned into a water curtain.

Wang Shuo had an extra pen in his hand and began to sprinkle it on the water curtain, and a moving picture appeared on the water curtain.

Liu Zhiyi was surprised. This was a water curtain movie. I didn’t expect that I could still see it in this world.

Xie Xuan explained on the side: "The King's family in Jiangnan is a family-borne calligraphy and painting, and has the reputation of being both outstanding calligraphy and painting."

This is also a family of artists who are good at calligraphy and painting.

Liu Zhiyi nodded, his eyes were always staring at the water curtain, and some characters appeared on it, one of which was Chu'er. Chu'er was arguing with a fat woman. Chu'er was pitiful, holding the old woman's sleeve, crying and saying something. The old woman was unmoved, her face was harsh, as if she was scolding her harshly. Chu'er knelt down and continued to beg her hard, but the old woman was still unmoved.

The old woman shook off Chu'er's hand holding her sleeve and walked to the window. There was light and shadow outside the window. It was probably at some noon. Chu'er knelt down and collapsed on the ground, with her body undulating and sobbing. After crying for a while, she suddenly raised her head and her expression began to change. From her soft and weak appearance, she suddenly became cold. She slowly got up, walked slowly to the window, suddenly reached out and pulled out the jade hairpin from her hair, and tugged it towards the old woman's neck. The old woman was not careful, and then she fell down with her neck in her arms.

Seeing this, Liu Zhiyi said: "It turns out that Chu'er killed the man!"

Wang Shuo said: "Don't Brother Liu find it strange?"

Liu Zhiyi said: "It's a bit strange. Chu'er killed someone clearly during the day, but you went there in the evening. From noon to evening, no one noticed it?"

Wang Shuo said: "I'm strange, not referring to this. After Bian Madam died, Chu'er hid the body of Bian Madam. In the evening, I told me after I went there. I asked me to report her!"

Liu Zhiyi frowned, and the idea of ​​finding Chu'er and bringing it to justice became even stronger. This woman was so scheming. She knew that Wang Shu loved her, but she asked Wang Shu to report her. Isn't this an obvious hint that Wang Shu helped her take the blame? She really wanted to surrender, so why do others need to report it? She had already voluntarily surrendered.

Liu Zhiyi advised: "Brother Wang, I will say bluntly that this Chu'er is not worthy of yours!"

It's so funny to blame a green tea.

Wang Shuo shook his head and said, "Brother Liu, don't you think Chu'er is strange?"

Liu Zhiyi nodded: "It's a bit strange, and it changes a lot, as if it's a different person."

In the picture just now, Chu'er suddenly turned from a weak female who only knew how to cry to a death-making female killer. She was quick and done in one go. This was not something that could be done under anger, and she had to undergo professional training.

Wang Shuo said: "Brother Liu Mingjian, Chu'er is a killer."

Unexpectedly, it is reasonable. Judging from the scene just now, Chu'er is indeed like a killer. But it is surprising that the span between the brothel woman and the killer is too large.

Liu Zhiyi nodded: "No wonder she can escape! In this way, Brother Wang is not worthy of her punishment."

Wang Shuo said: "It is better for Brother Liu to not know many of the inside stories. This matter is very wide and cannot be controlled by you and me. So it is better for Brother Liu not to interfere."

Liu Zhiyi bowed, and he knew Wang Shuo's intentions. A killer, hiding in the fireworks and willow alley, is definitely not an ordinary killer, but a kind of dead soldiers. The power of such dead soldiers since childhood cannot be easily provoked. Wang Shuo must have discovered something, but he didn't want to say that he was not just for Chu'er. He was also afraid that he would implicate his friends, so he refused to tell the four talents, and now he didn't want Liu Zhiyi to intervene. On the one hand, he did not want Liu Zhiyi to implicate Liu Zhiyi, and he was also afraid that Liu Zhiyi would implicate his friends after he dug out the truth.

"Goodbye!"

After bowing, leave immediately.

Xie Xuan, Xu Jie and Shen Quan frowned and chased after him.

"Brother Liu really wants to let go?"

Xu Jie asked, his face showing displeasure.

Xu Jie is a person with temperament, so Xie Xuan and Shen Quan did not reveal anything.

Liu Zhiyi shook his head: "Have you ever found someone else? Is there no master of the Legal family in the government?"

Xu Jie showed some embarrassment. They must have looked for someone else. This kind of thing was to use official connections at the first time, but strangely, no one was willing to take action, and everyone seemed to be very secretive about this case. That's why they came to Liu Zhiyi, but with their IQ, it was impossible for them to see the tricks, but they did not tell Liu Zhiyi. This was very unauthorized. Although they were desperate for Wang Shu, their friend, and they concealed Liu Zhiyi and obviously did not treat him as their own. So Liu Zhiyi shook his hands and Xu Jie had no right to blame him.

Xie Xuan said: "Brother Liu misunderstood. When the lower-class person was looking for Brother Liu, he didn't want Brother Liu to have anything to do, so he didn't tell Brother Liu about some secrets. He just wanted Brother Liu to help find Chu'er. As for the situation behind the scenes, I don't care."

Behind Chu'er's identity, there must be a huge force. This force, the people in the official service, do not want to provoke, nor do they want to provoke.

Liu Zhiyi accepted this reason.

"Let's go!"

Liu Zhiyi said.

“Where to go?”

Xu Jie asked.

"Of course it's the Bian family."

Liu Zhiyi did not intend to leave.

The few people didn't ask the reason, so they immediately led the way and took a carriage to the Bian Ma's house together.

The Bian Ma's family lives in Pingkangli, and is still the most remote Beiqu. The streets are narrow and twisty. It was the first place where a group of coolies built the imperial city lived, attracting some inferior women who betrayed their appearance. Later, the Central District and South District, and the last Pingkangfang. However, the characteristics of Beiqu are still maintained until now, and they are still private houses and secret prostitutes, and there are no large brothels. The main reason is that ordinary people come here to consume.

The family of Bian Mama is in Beiqu. It is considered a large household with a huge courtyard. It usually lives with thirty or fifty people. There are old residents of Pingkangli, such as musicians and singers.

The door was sealed, but the seal had been torn apart, and it was obvious that more than one person had entered and exited.

When I opened the door, there was no one inside. Dozens of women who were once raised by Bian Madam were all in prison.

Liu Zhiyi was taken all the way into a large house in the backyard.

"This is where Mrs. Bian died?"

Xie Xuan pointed out: "Bian Bian died under this window."

Liu Zhiyi approached the window and squatted down. He saw some faint blood on the ground and beside the window. He reached out and rubbed it, put it under his nose and smelled it, and there was a faint smell of blood.

He is not an old detective. He can't smell anything, but it doesn't prevent him from searching. A faint light ignited from his hand, and the light mixed with blood to form a thin line. Liu Zhiyi shook his hand and the thin line fell to the ground, swimming like a small snake.

The little snake wandered around the house with a very complicated trajectory. Half a quarter of an hour later, it climbed up the window and drilled out. This was the Legalist's "thousand-mile tracking" technique, and this was the first time Liu Zhiyi used it in actual combat.

The little snake crawled into the garden outside the back window. This time, it did not walk around. It climbed straight out of the garden, climbed up the back wall, and flipped over.

"Chu'er must have escaped from here!"

Liu Zhiyi said to the others, and he jumped up, slapped his hands on the wall, rolled over the high wall, and continued to chase the little snake.

Unfortunately, there is a canal in the north of Pingkangli. This canal enters the city from Xishuimen, spans the entire east and west cities, exits from Dongshuimen, and merges into the moat. After Chu'er escaped, she should have passed through this canal. After the little snake drilled into the canal, it quickly dissolved in the canal water and lost its trace.

"Why is this?"

Xie Xuan was confused.

The spells tracked by the Legalists are not so fragile, and a small canal canal can block them.

Liu Zhiyi sighed: "Chu'er deliberately wades in the water. The water flow dispersed the traces on her body and could not be traced!"

As expected, if Chu'er is a killer, her ability to counter-reconnaissance should be very strong. If there is a supernatural school like the Legalists in this world, there will naturally be a means of confrontation and concealment.

Xu Jie frowned: "Brother Liu, are there any other ways?"

Liu Zhiyi nodded: "Go back."

The few people returned to the Bian Ma's house and this time they entered Chu'er's house.

A girl's boudoir is decorated in a fresh and elegant manner, and there is still a faint fragrance.

Liu Zhiyi sniffed it and remembered the smell.

He grabbed the air with his hands, then took a deep breath and sprinkled it on the ground. A clear light sprinkled from his hands on the ground, and then spread out, quickly covering the whole room, and the clear light condensed into thin lines, like a net.

This is the "clues" of the Legalist mantra, and it will manifest after encountering the clues you want.

Liu Zhiyi grabbed another shot, and thin lines like spider webs gathered into his hands, and finally wrapped them into a ball of clear light like yarn.

Grasp the ball of thread and go out immediately.

Liu Zhiyi explained: "Everyone, you should act faster. You can't hold on for long."

His current cultivation of the Legalist school is no longer the same as before, but it is still impossible to persist for a long time. There will always be a time when the true energy is exhausted.

Shen Quan nodded: "Brother Liu wait."

He saw a horse tied to the beast stake outside the next door, and immediately walked over. A servant guarding the door came out to negotiate. Shen Quan did not talk to him and stuffed him a ingot of gold. The servant was confused. Shen Quan took the reins of the horse and left.

The reins soon arrived in Liu Zhiyi's hands.

"Brother Liu. I'm working hard!"

Liu Zhiyi was not polite and rode out of Pingkangli on a horse. After passing the canal, he threw out the ball of thread in his hand.

The thread spread in the wind, and a dense net spread out in the wind, covering hundreds of steps. One of the threads lit up, the others gradually faded and finally disappeared.

The only light thin line squirmed like a small snake, swimming rapidly along the canal toward the northwest.

Liu Zhiyi rode his horse and ran along the thin line, and actually arrived at Dongshui Pass.

...

Xie Xuan and others had been waiting at Bian's house. Two hours later, they saw a figure leading a horse appearing at the entrance of the alley and walking towards them. Who else was not Liu Zhiyi?

He stood up to greet him, and suddenly a carriage drove out of a horizontal alley, blocking the entire alley. The carriage seemed to be turning around, and could not fall for a moment, lying across the alley, unable to move forward and retreat.

When the carriage finally turned around, Liu Zhiyi had disappeared from the sight of several people.
