The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 419 Ask
A strong smell of rotting corpses permeated the room, Changsun Ji frowned, took a brocade cloth from his bosom to cover his nose, and looked into the copper coffin.

Inside the copper coffin, a rotting corpse was lying inside.It can be seen from the outside of this copper coffin that the owner of this copper coffin is either rich or noble, and this is even more reflected from the corpse inside the copper coffin.

In this corpse, one head is so rotten that you can't tell what it looked like. There are still a few shreds of meat hanging on the exposed bones on the face. The whole face is so dry and wrinkled that it can't cover the whole face. Shrunken and covered half of the face.

There are still a few maggots wriggling on the shriveled face, but because of the season, this is not the time for their activities, so they are hanging half dead.There are still a few dead maggots on the head, lying there quietly.

The eyeballs that were supposed to be bright in the eye sockets have now shrunk to the size of a mung bean, and there is still a gray layer covering them. I don't know what it is.

The corpse had two fingers intertwined in front of the stomach, and the fingers had become bloody and bloody, with dead maggots on them, and various rings and agates were worn on each finger.

He was wearing a Xichuan black brocade cloth embroidered with various patterns, and a few strings of pearls the size of red dates were hung on his neck.

It seems that it is a female corpse, but its identity can no longer be seen from its appearance.

Changsun Ji's eyebrows were wrinkled, and he felt a little disgusted. Judging from the specifications of the coffin and the degree of decay of the corpse, if the coffin was not carried on the back by the monk in red, but placed where it should have been.There should be no maggots crawling in.

Being able to be buried with a copper coffin will definitely not be to find a place to bury it by the way, it must be a high-quality tomb site that has been selected before. It is guaranteed that after the coffin is buried underground for many years, it will still not be harassed by snakes, insects, rats and ants living underground.

Although the corpse was dressed richly, there were already maggots raging on the corpse. It was obvious that the monk in red was carrying his body all day long, somehow letting mosquitoes and flies in to lay eggs in summer.

As the museum opened longer, the stench of corpses in the room became stronger and stronger. Even though Chang Sun Ji was holding his nose, the stench continued to hit his forehead.

He has already seen what needs to be seen, and he is unwilling to stay in this environment for too long. After ordering Wang Gang and Wang Hu to cover the copper coffin, Changsun Ji rushed out of the room until he took several breaths of fresh air before letting him go. He slowly recovered.

Looking at the surrounding guards who looked at him in surprise, Changsun Ji smiled and didn't explain. He just told them to guard the room and not allow anyone to enter, and then took Wang Gang away.

The night was slowly falling, and after dinner, Changsun Ji visited Changsun Tanqing again, and then returned to his room.

In the room, besides Wang Gang, there was another man wearing rough clothes standing there waiting for him. Seeing Changsun Ji walking over, he hurriedly greeted Changsun Ji.

Changsun Ji walked straight past, knelt down in front of the main hall, looked at the man and opened his mouth and said, "Wei Huaiyin, let me ask you, besides you, who else escaped and the man in white who died Who is it?"

"Also, what grievances do you have with my Changsun family? Why did you assassinate me and my uncle?"

"Returning to the general, the black-veiled woman is Ying Erniang, who is also very famous in Jianghu. She once built a black shop in Mobei, which was dedicated to poisoning passing traders. Later, she provoked someone and was hunted down. Black shop If you can't do it, you will directly become a sand bandit wandering the desert."

"That dwarf was originally a job in Ying Erniang's shop, but after the black shop disappeared, he has been wandering around with Ying Erniang."

"As for the monk in red, he is a person who has just risen in the rivers and lakes in Liangzhou. He is superb in martial arts and uses an iron rod. He calls himself an 'abandoned monk'. Every time this person appears, his back is beaten There are also rumors in the Jianghu that this copper coffin is his unmarried wife, so some good people in the Jianghu also named him 'Lovely Man'."

"Do you know about the red clothes and before you came to Liangzhou?" Changsun Ji interrupted and asked with a little interest when he saw the monk in red.

Wei Huaiyin shook his head and said: "This person seems to have suddenly appeared in the Jianghu. The first time he became famous in the Jianghu was when he killed three big bandits in the desert in Liangzhou, and took him from the bandit king of the desert. Xiangshu Zeng escaped from his hands. Since then, he has been out of control, and he has made a name for himself in the Jianghu in just a few years."

Glancing at Changsun Ji, he didn't show any displeasure.Then he said again in relief: "Actually, there are not many people in the Jianghu who can make people know the bottom line. They usually come out after getting some adventures, just like what did Ying Erniang and that dwarf do before they opened a black shop?" Yes, no one knows, although there are many rumors in Jianghu, but no one can say for sure whether it is true."

Changsun Ji nodded, agreeing with his explanation, and asked again: "Then that purple-clothed woman who appeared with the red-clothed monk? Who is that?"

"That man came with the monk in red. He is his companion. He doesn't have any communication with us on weekdays. He just heard the monk call him like a girl on weekdays."

"Like a girl?" Changsun Ji frowned and thought about it, but he couldn't think of a reason, so he shook his head and asked Wei Huaiyin to continue.

"I know the man in white. He was originally a child of a noble family in Jiuquan City, but later the family's backer fell, and he had no shelter in the capital, so he was swallowed up. He happened to be away that day, but he escaped with his life." Before the family was destroyed, he was a well-known playboy in Jiuquan. Later, when the family was destroyed, he was determined to take revenge. Driven by hatred, he also practiced martial arts well. In the past few years, he has also made great achievements in the arena. Fame, but who would have expected it to be planted here."

As he said that, Wei Huaiyin showed a regretful expression, as if he was sighing for what happened to the young man in white, it was impossible for people to see that the young man in white died at his hands.

"Then tell me again, why did you guys gather together and attack my Changsun family together?" Changsun Ji asked with a smile.

"This matter is not as complicated as you think, General. In fact, you can see that among all the people, only the monk in red has a grudge with the Changsun family. We have no grudges with the Changsun family. As for The reason why we also attack the Changsun family is because we are actually high-level thugs who take money to do things."
