C11 Coffin Nail
Seeing that the man named Qian suddenly turned around and walked back, Lei Mingsheng was very angry, "Eh? What's going on? Could it be that he found out? "
"It's possible," Dongfang Zhongyue saw that the man was in a hurry and was looking left and right as he walked, as if he had sensed something. Lei Mingsheng immediately ordered, "Tell our people to follow them. Attack whenever there's a chance!"
All the police officers formed a big circle with the White Servant. Using the crowd as cover, they followed the man named Qian forward. Lei Mingsheng, Dongfang Zhongyue and the others also quickly chased after him.
Before the man named Qian could get to the other side of the market, he had already lost his temper. He grabbed onto a white soldier and started beating and kicking him, cursing, "You bastard, why are you following me? "You don't look like a good person to laozi …" Half of them were dialects, which made them sound like they didn't really understand.
Once the two of them started fighting, the market immediately fell into chaos. The people who were buying things and selling goods quickly moved out of the way. As soon as they made room for the constables, all the constables would surround them with their weapons and ropes. When the commoners saw this, they became even more frightened, shouting and fleeing in all directions.
Although the man surnamed Qian didn't have a sword or knife on him, he bought a new kitchen knife from the kitchen basket and hacked a constable and a criminal. Lei Mingsheng cried out anxiously, "Young Master Dongfang, please help him! This guy is too powerful …!"
At that time, Dongfang Zhong Yu was still more than twenty steps away. In a hurry, he picked up the radish from the stall and threw it over. Although the white radish couldn't injure him, it still had enough weight. It smashed against the man's calf and knocked him off balance. The second radish flew over and hit the man on the back of his head.
"Those constables are really weak, but when it comes to fighting amongst themselves, they are all experts. They immediately rushed up to you and started attacking you and me." Stop! Don't kill them, you must survive! " Lei Mingsheng shouted and ran over.
Lei Mingsheng immediately became angry when he saw the man named Qian lying motionlessly on the ground. He scolded, "Are you all deaf? Tell you not to shoot... Quickly, look and see if your injuries are serious or not. " Someone turned the man surnamed Qian over and saw that his eyes were wide open. He was already dead!
"A bunch of idiots!" Lei Mingsheng couldn't hold his anger any longer, so he punched and kicked his subordinates, causing everyone to hurriedly run away. A constable quickly said, "Don't get angry, Thunderhead. There's something wrong with this. It wouldn't be fatal even if we just hit him a few times!"
"How the f * ck did they die if they weren't fatal?" With his only hope shattered, how could Lei Mingsheng not be angry? Dongfang Zhongyu whispered something into his ear. Only then did Lei Mingsheng's anger subside a little. He ordered someone to find a cart and pull the corpse back to the yamen.
When they returned to the yamen, Lei Mingsheng personally inspected the corpse. There were a few knife and rod wounds that were not fatal! Lei Mingsheng looked towards the east and asked hesitantly: "Young Master Dongfang, could it be that you are too heavy-handed? "That radish was smashed to death." He knew what was going on in the East, so he shook his head and said no.
Lei Mingsheng had no choice but to send someone to invite corona, who specialized in autopsies. Wu Tie used a silver needle to stab his throat and poke his abdomen. After confirming that he did not die from the poison, he checked his chest, crotch, temples, and other vital organs to confirm that he did not suffer any blunt injury. Finally, he said, "Turn it over and check the back of the heart and brain! and only these two places are capable of killing people. "
The constables helped to turn the body over. First they looked at the back, then they saw that there was a knife cut only half an inch deep in the heart. No matter what, it didn't kill anyone. corona opened his hair bun, reached his hands into his hair and touched it. In the blink of an eye, he exclaimed, "There … "Damn it, you really are someone who can't die even if you're sick."
Lei Mingsheng quickly went over to help lift his hair. He saw a black metal hat about the size of a fingernail on the back of his head. corona pulled it out with the metal clip. It was a three-inch metal nail. Everyone was astounded when they saw this.
"Honey, is there anyone else who uses a nail as a projectile?" "Dongfang Zhong looked at the constables in surprise." It should be a martial arts master! " corona said, "A human's skull is very strong. For a three-inch long nail to be able to enter all of it, the strength of the hand is amazing!
Dongfang Zhongyu immediately understood, he thought, wasn't it! A normal person might not even be able to cut three inches into their bones with a blade, let alone a nail. This is no ordinary nail! " Lei Mingsheng, who hadn't said anything all this time, suddenly spoke up.
"Does Boss Ley know this thing?" corona asked in surprise. This... I don't know him either. " Lei Mingsheng suddenly changed his tone and said: "Everyone has been busy the whole day, let's go back and rest!"
He dismissed the crowd, leaving only the three constables close by. corona knew that he had something to avoid, so he asked: "Boss Lei, can you tell me now?" Lei Mingsheng looked at the crowd and sighed. "This thing is no ordinary nail. It's called a coffin nail. It's a special concealed weapon … Have you heard of Thirteen Blood Iron Eagles? "
An old constable and corona who were listening to him were startled, corona asked curiously: "It can't be, Boss Lei? "Thirteen Blood Iron Eagles has disappeared for dozens of years. I've never even heard of people like them, who are young."
"I can't believe it either," Lei Mingsheng said solemnly, "But I won't admit it wrong. My teacher, Zhao Yian, was killed by this kind of coffin nail. Look carefully, the nail tip isn't a trident." corona wiped off the blood on the nail. The nail tip was indeed a trident.
Dongfang Zhongyue curiously asked: "Thunderhead, who is this Thirteen Blood Iron Eagles?" It's not just one person, "Lei Mingsheng replied." It's thirteen people. It's the descendant of Zhang Shicheng. " With just that short sentence, everyone understood. In those days, Zhang Shicheng and Zhu Zhang Yuan competed against each other, and the descendants of Zhang Shicheng were definitely rebellious!
The situation now was very complicated. There had been a rebellion in the case of Li Jinglong's Iron Vouchers, and what was even weirder was that the rebel had killed the traitor who was hiding in the Cao family's residence! Who was he helping? If he was helping Li Jinglong, he shouldn't have killed this person. Then this traitor should be an accomplice of the traitor and should be related to the Embroidered Uniform Guard … This was absolutely impossible! For a moment, everyone looked at each other in dismay. None of them were able to say anything …
The sky was getting darker and darker. It was none of his business to hang up corona before leaving. After discussing for a while, they still couldn't come to a conclusion. Lei Mingsheng waved his hand to let everyone go as well. There were some things that just couldn't be understood, so they shouldn't think about it.
Dongfang Zhongyu had always been thinking about people who used coffin nails. Baili Qingcang had never taught him the art of hidden weapons, and Wu Changchun had only taught him a few palm techniques. Therefore, Dongfang Zhongyu had always envied those people who could make hidden weapons, and he didn't know how to make a nail fly in a straight line.
In terms of hand strength alone, a swing of the hand can penetrate three inches into the bone. This is a great thing!" There was no need to talk about his martial arts. The capital was indeed a place filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Yesterday, they had just met a person with outstanding lightness skills, yet today, they had already … Ah? Dongfang Zhongyu had only taken a few steps out of the yamen when he suddenly stopped.
Lei Mingsheng lived in Southwest City and walked with him. At this time, he asked in puzzlement, "Why aren't you leaving?" Wrong... "Something's wrong …" Dongfang Zhongyu shook his head and said, "No." Lei Mingsheng was even more confused, "Young Master Dongfang, what's wrong?"
Dongfang Zhongyue asked, "Thunderhead, do you remember the man in black who came out of the Duke of Cao's Mansion last night?" Of course I remember, "Lei Mingsheng was confused," Isn't it this person who died? "His surname was originally Qian, but now his surname is Wang …"
"That's not right!" Dongfang Zhongyue flatly denied it. "Think about it. Even though it's dark, you can see that the person last night was lean and strong, but today he's a bit fat, right?" Ah, yes! " Lei Mingsheng slapped his thigh, "Now that you mention it, that guy was indeed thinner and taller last night. Aiya … This is weird! "
"It is indeed a bit strange," Dongfang Zhongyue said as he thought, "I haven't made any progress for the past half a month, I think Li Jinglong can also investigate a few people himself, how did this Qian guy suddenly appear? I think we should check the source of this information. "
"Are you saying that this person isn't a spy at all? Someone deliberately set him up so that we can deviate from the direction of the investigation?" Lei Mingsheng didn't need to listen to his answer to know what was going on, "Hur Hur … It's a good thing we met such a noble person like you! "I didn't doubt it at all before …"
The two of them chatted as they walked, making a rough plan for tomorrow. They had to find the person who had leaked the news to the police, even if he was not a spy, he must be related to the spy.
Not far from the top street is the Dragon Pan, past the Dragon Pan there is an elm forest. Dongfang Zhongyu and Lei Mingsheng were almost thirty steps away from the woods when they heard the sound of bowstring. Dongfang Zhongyu was startled. He quickly threw his right foot under the horse's belly. Just as he left the saddle, an arrow was shot at the horse's butt. The horse let out a long scream of pain and dashed forward crazily.
Lei Mingsheng wasn't as good as him. Just as he was about to pull out the iron ruler behind his back and shoot two crossbow bolts at his chest, Lei Mingsheng screamed and fell off his horse.
On the other hand, Zhong Yu's horse was scared and ran into the woods, while Zhong Yue jumped to the ground, afraid that his horse would run around randomly and hurt him. He knew that the enemy was hiding in the trees, so he immediately stuck to the roots of the tree and anxiously searched for traces of the enemy.
It was very dark in the woods, and before he could look around, a sudden gust of wind was blowing overhead. Dongfang Zhongyue pressed his feet against the ground and sprinted two zhang away. Almost at the same time, a black shadow fell from the sky and stood still with one blade on the ground.
There was no weapon on Dongfang Zhongyue's body, he raised his palms and asked: "Who are you? Why did you attack me? " The black shadow did not say anything as it took a big stride forward and chopped down with its blade. The Dongfang Zhongzhong unleashed his most powerful Heavenly Dipper Palm to clash with the black shadow.
After three or five moves, he gradually adapted to the darkness. When he saw that his opponent's moves were full of loopholes, he immediately turned his guard into an offense. The black shadow was pushed back by Dongfang Zhong's three slashes. Knowing that the other party was much stronger than him, he shouted anxiously, "Are you all dead? "Come and help me!"
"Hehe …" It's too late to get help now! " Dongfang Zhongyue aimed at the gap and struck his chest with his palm. That person quickly cut his arm horizontally, and this was exactly what Dongfang Zhongyu wanted. Suddenly, his arm turned and gently and easily took away the blade, then with a kick, it kicked him thirty feet away.
The sound of landing hadn't died down yet, but footsteps could be heard from the front, left, and back. Dongfang Zhongyue was astonished. Who was this person, how could there be so many of them? Being alone, he was most afraid of being besieged. The more he moved from the east, the more he rushed towards the enemy in front of him.
The man jumped and stopped ten paces away. In the blink of an eye, Dongfang Zhongyue had closed the distance, slashing out with his saber to cut his shoulder. The man raised his blade to block and was actually knocked back two steps. He quickly shouted: "Come here, this kid is strong …!" Before he could finish, the tip of Dongfang Zhongyu's blade had already cut open his throat.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Let's use the crossbow to greet him. Let's see how powerful he is." As soon as he finished speaking, the sounds of bowstring sounds rose and fell, and at the same time, three or four people rushed over …
