The case was once again in fog.

From the bride who died from the decapitated bride, to the death of the Lord Murong, to the death of Yu Chou Chou and Mrs. Du, to the secret room... Now it involves a village tragedy nine years ago.

Every place is strange and mysterious.

The focus of the case is now on the headless bride and the Yiyuan tribe.

Find out the identity of the bride who was killed and find out the truth about the fire in Wuchen Village, Yiyuan clan, and everything will be clear.

However, the owner of the Stone Hall cannot believe it in full.

After all, the two are not familiar with each other, and it is suspicious that the other party is so honest.

Truth is to be judged by one's own fault.

Especially the so-called "dead-headed rebirth" technique, it sounds too mysterious and nonsense, which is equivalent to being an immortal body.

If it really exists, it is comparable to his golden finger'rebirth'.

"Master Chen Tan should be careful."

The owner of the stone hall added a glass of wine to Chen Mu and smiled faintly. "Once Zhu Dunzhu confirmed his son's death, he would inevitably cause trouble for you."

Chen Mu shrugged: "It doesn't matter, just let him come."

The Lord of the Stone Hall said: "With that being said, Zhu Duzhu is quite extreme in character. He is very doting on his son. If you really want to cause trouble for you, your life will be in danger. After all, Master Murong Duke is dead, and few people in Nanfeng Duke dare to stop him."

Chen Mu's heart moved and he heard another meaning from the other party's words.

"What do you mean is that Zhu Duzhu might use his son's death to make trouble in Nanfeng Dun and suppress Nanfeng Dun in one fell swoop?"

The owner of the stone hall stretched out his thumb: "It's great to talk to smart people."

He threw the empty wine jar to the next table and opened the jar of wine again. He said while smelling the leaking mellow smell of wine:

"The four major rudders have a high status in the Tiandihui. After the death of the Murong rudder, the rudder will inevitably inspect new candidates and become the next rudder leader of the Nanfeng rudder. Before this, if the Nanfeng rudder can be suppressed, it will be a good thing for the other three rudders."

Chen Mu laughed: "Why do I feel like you are an undercover agent next to Zhu Peiqi, and you are not really seeking refuge with him."

"Didn't you say it before, it's all for your own benefit."

The Lord of the Stone Hall shook his head and sighed. "After the breakup between the Lord Murong and I broke up, only by surrendering to Xifeng Ruler could I maximize my interests. I am not surrendering to anyone or being loyal to anyone. As long as you give more, I will do things for you."

This is a very honest answer.

It seems that he regards Chen Mu as a true friend, without any concern.

Chen Mu smiled and returned to the topic just now: "According to what you said, the leader of Murong killed the people at the head of the steward two years ago in order to obtain the 'dead head rebirth' technique. So has he practiced this technique later?"

"I don't know, but since he has obtained it, it's impossible for him to leave it alone and not practice."

The owner of the stone hall said.

Chen Mu nodded: "That's true."

If the owner of the stone hall did not lie, then the owner of Murong was practicing the technique of "dead head and rebirth" to worship those people.

But why did he spend two years finding twenty-seven people to sacrifice?

It seems to be the same as previously speculated.

The twenty-seven people who were sacrificed all need specific conditions, such as...left-handed people, etc.

On the other hand, Bai Xianyu is also investigating the headless case two years ago.

Through a secret investigation by Zhuquetang, a key figure was finally found.

This person's name is Xu Mazi.

He was imprisoned several times for stealing and robbing. Later, he worshipped Ma Luozi, the thief of Jiangyang, and then became a beggar because he was broken.

The murderer of the headless case announced by the government two years ago was Ma Luzi.

Later, the government pushed him to the Caishikou and chopped his head.

Although there was no big problem with the case from the file and confession, Bai Xianyu still felt that the case was tried too perfunctorily.

Under the leadership of the Zhuquetang Mingwei, Xu Mazi was taken to a cold courtyard.

In front of him was a woman wearing a Suzaku mask.

He wanted to look up, but he felt the cold pressure emitted from the other party, so he had to kneel on the ground tremblingly and lower his head.

"I heard you were Ma Luzi's brother-in-law?"

Bai Xianyu asked coldly.

Xu Mazi shivered and shook his head quickly: "No, sir, you must have made a mistake. I don't know any Ma Luzi at all."

Since Ma Luzi was beheaded two years ago, all those who have contacted him in the past have avoided him.

I was afraid of causing trouble for myself.

Xu Mazi is no exception.

Bai Xianyu said in a cold voice: "Since you are arrested, you will find out your background. If you want to suffer, you might as well send you to prison and be honest."

"I...I..."

Xu Mazi's forehead was covered in cold sweat. When he saw a guard next to him pulling out a knife, he hurriedly said, "It's really a misunderstanding. Although Ma Xuanzi and I have worshipped each other, they are all joking. We never contacted each other at all. What he did has nothing to do with me."

Bai Xianyu's beautiful eyes floated slightly: "I'll ask you if the headless case two years ago was made by Ma Luzi."

"This... hasn't your government confirmed this?"

Xu Mazi said with a bitter face.

Bai Xianyu looked cold: "We are different from the government. Just answer it carefully. Let me ask you again, have you ever seen Ma Luzi before the headless case happened?"

"No."

Xu Mazi shook her head repeatedly.

Seeing that the other party was not lying, Bai Xianyu asked again: "Since you have worshipped me, it means you still know him very well. In your opinion, what kind of person is Ma Luozi."

Xu Mazi knelt on the ground, looking a little hesitant.

The Minggu next to him wanted to exterminate, but Bai Xianyu waved his hand and looked at Xu Mazi and said, "To be honest, I will let you leave, and... I will give you a hundred taels of silver."

Xu Mazi's eyes lit up.

He looked at the depressed guards around him, gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, I'll tell you the truth. In fact, Ma Luzi is not like the bloodthirsty person that others say."

"Oh? Isn't he a thief?" A strange color appeared in Bai Xianyu's eyes.

Xu Mazi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's all blown up. I'm so familiar with him. He dares not kill anyone. When robbing, he is more afraid of causing death.

To be honest, when I learned that Ma Luzi was the murderer of the headless case two years ago, I really couldn't believe it.

Anyway, in my opinion, this guy is probably possessed by evil spirits."

After listening to Xu Mazi's words, Bai Xianyu's eyes flashed and she fell into deep thought.

She believed Xu Mazi's words.

Judging from the case clan and the confession statement, Ma Luzi is very likely to be punished, while the real murderer is at large.

Or at that time, in order to solve the case as soon as possible, the government temporarily found a replacement.

Or, the real murderer was hidden by the government.

Which one would it be?

"By the way, I remembered one more thing."

Xu Mazi suddenly remembered something and patted her head. "This Ma Luzi actually has a daughter."

"Daughter? Where is it? What's the name?"

Bai Xianyu was surprised.

Xu Mazi said: "I don't know either. I just heard him mention it. It seemed that he was talking about feelings with a girl when he was young, but his family opposed it and later they separated. The girl married someone else. However, when they were separated, the girl became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter.

Although Ma Xuanzi usually looks at a bastard, he values ​​affection and friendship. After learning that he has a daughter, he doesn't bother him. He secretly gave all the money he gets from weekdays to the mother and daughter."

Bai Xianyu thought for a moment and asked, "Then how old his daughter is now, do you know?"

"It should be around twenty years old."

Xu Mazi thought for a while and replied. "Three years ago, when I was drinking with Ma Xuanzi, he mentioned that his daughter was almost seventeen and wanted to find a family in the family. I can't remember exactly what she said."

Twenty years old...

Bai Xianyu's beautiful eyes fell on the dead leaves floating in the yard to think.

After a long time, she waved her hand and asked the guard to hand over a silver note. After sending Xu Mazi away, she said to Mingwei: "Continue to investigate and find out the information about Ma Xuanzi's daughter."

"yes."

The Vermilion Bird Hall’s Underworld Guards responded one after another.
