After confirming that the person who found the wizard of Qingtang was not the messenger in red, but the generals under his command, Dongchuan Hou suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.

His original plan was to use the search for the Qingtang wizard to distract the attention of the red-clothed messengers and waste their time and energy. .

But he never imagined that the person who took advantage of the fisherman was not himself, but the group of red-clothed messengers.

Marquis Dongchuan's heart was full of anger, but he couldn't get angry in front of his subordinates, and he even had to reward the soldiers who found the Qingtang wizard to maintain his image of justice in rewards and punishments.

Thinking of this, the anger in Dongchuanhou's heart grew even bigger.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the evil fire in his heart, and asked in a deep voice, "How about the casualties of the brothers? Has the Qingtang wizard caught it?"

Ma Chao was very moved by the casualties of Dongchuan Houxian, and hurriedly replied: "Brothers have no casualties. As for the Qingtang wizard, when he found him, he was already dead."

"Dead? How did you die?"

This is another unexpected thing in Dongchuanhou.

He also thought that after the red-clothed messenger caught the Qingtang wizard, he would find an excuse to ask someone to come over and leave it as a witness, so that after beating the Qingtang side, they would be the first to claim compensation on the grounds that they had broken their promises. Let Qingtang pay a big price, so as not to dare to offend his Huwei easily.

But now, this plan, with the death of the Qingtang wizard, has also come to nothing.

What Dongchuanhou didn't even think about was the cause of death of the Qingtang wizard.

After hearing the question, Ma Chao quickly replied: "According to the messenger in red who rushed to examine the body, that Qingtang wizard is suspected of committing suicide..."

suicide?

Dongchuanhou raised his brows and thought it was ridiculous at first, but after thinking about it, he felt that this situation was not impossible.

He even made up the reason for the suicide of the Qingtang wizard:

It must be that Qingtang was afraid that I would use this matter to make a fuss, so they sent a dead man over and asked him to commit suicide after a sneak attack. As long as a person dies, there is no proof for death. Qingtang can infer that this Qingtang wizard was sent by a tribe who did not obey their orders, and then threw a few heads, saying that he avenged me, so I could not be held accountable... …

As expected of a group of wolf cubs, it really is a good plan!

Although there were already speculations in his heart, Marquis Dongchuan did not tell these speculations. Instead, his face sank, showing a look of disbelief, and said coldly:

"Suicide? It's because their red-clothed messengers have the guts to say it. You go and tell them, just say what I said, and let them find out the true cause of death of the Qingtang wizard, and find out if he has any other companions in the city, don't take suicide. It's useless to come to the lake for such a lame reason. If they can't find out, don't blame me for commanding Lu and teaching them with military tactics!"

The Marquis of Dongchuan is still quick-witted, and this arrangement is equivalent to continuing to divert the attention of the red-clothed messenger, allowing the red-clothed messenger to act according to his previous ideas again.

Only this time, there is no way to devour the wolf, and the red-clothed messenger and the Qingtang wizard will lose both in a fight.

But it doesn't matter, in Qingtang Weicheng, there is no shortage of Qingtang spies and monsters from the Black Lotus Sect.

As long as the red-clothed messenger investigates, they will meet those people, and there is still a chance that they will lose both...

At the same time, Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others were also confused about the real cause of death of the Qingtang wizard at the house of the butcher who found the corpse of the Qingtang wizard.

The corpse of the Qingtang wizard sat cross-legged on the bed in the butcher's house, while the butcher and his wife were slumped aside. Although there was no wound on their body, they were no longer breathing.

Qin Qiao'er, a red-clothed messenger, examined the butcher's couple's corpses, such as corpses and corpses, and judged that they had been dead for at least two or three days.

Zhu Xiucai heard from the neighbors nearby that in the past two or three days, they had not seen the butcher and his wife.

"Since I didn't see anyone, why didn't I report to the official?" A red-clothed messenger asked with a frown.

Zhu Xiucai sighed and said: "Now there is a war in Qingtang, and people in the Acropolis are fleeing every day, and the neighbors just think they have escaped from the city to avoid the disaster, but they didn't expect it to be a pair of people. Died at home."

"The first two days were the days when the Prince of Dongchuan was anxiously torturing Zhang Hu, Zhao Long, and Ma Han. It seems that this Qingtang wizard was prepared early in the morning. I just don't understand why he didn't escape from the city. to go, but chose suicide."

Cui Youkui looked at the corpse of the Qingtang wizard and shook his head, full of confusion.

The reason why they judged that the wizard of Qingtang committed suicide was because a dagger was inserted into his heart, breaking it.

Judging from the position and angle of the dagger inserted into the heart, as well as the situation in which the Qingtang wizard held the hilt with both hands, it does not look like someone killed it and put it out, it is indeed suicide.

Qin Qiaoer analyzed: "It's not that he doesn't want to escape the city, but he can't escape. Look at him, in addition to the fatal wound on his heart~lightnovelpub.net~, there are several wounds. These wounds should be less travel. After beheading Zhang Hu, Zhao Long, and Wang Han who turned into corpses, and destroying the voodoo blood mist, the backlash damage caused to him. With these injuries, he could not escape from the city at all. When he reached the city gate, he would It was found and stopped. It is now in a state of war. The guards of the city gates have already been replaced by elite soldiers, and there are powerful generals and spiritual items guarding them. Even if they can't fight this Qingtang wizard, entangle him and make him short. It’s okay to wait for reinforcements to arrive. Presumably this Qingtang wizard once thought about going out of the city, but found that the situation was not right, so he hid back again, originally wanting to hide and wait for the limelight to pass, and then find Opportunity to escape from the city, only to encounter a carpet search..."

Having said this, Qin Qiao'er also frowned.

A Qingtang wizard who is so cruel to himself, even if his whereabouts are about to be revealed, he should not choose to commit suicide.

Logically speaking, even if he did not use witchcraft to deceive the soldiers who were searching, he should have rushed to kill him. Even if he died on the battlefield, he could drag a few people to back him. Why did he commit suicide?

Is it possible that you are trying to cover up something?

"Could it be that he was afraid that under us or Dongchuanhou, someone who was good at detaining ghosts would detain his soul for interrogation. Did the soul dissipate or hide?" Su Jianqing, who had been studying the corpse, suddenly spoke up.

When everyone turned to look at her in unison, she pointed at the corpse of the Qingtang wizard, and continued: "Generally speaking, after a person dies, the soul returns to the Yin Division, and the soul is attached to the dead bones and dissipates as the corpse decays. But in the corpse of this Qingtang wizard, I have neither seen his soul nor found his soul, this is not normal!"
