Little Jiluo turned around and entered the room, but saw corpses all over the floor, and a blood-dripping eagle on the wall.

"It's really weird, I've seen that headless ghost murder, why did he dare to go around committing crimes?" Xiao Jiluo rubbed his chin and said.

"Ming Fei!"

"Here we come!" Xiao Jiluo hastily turned around and left the yard, "Grandpa, the heads and bodies of those people from General Xilin Temple should be here."

"Oh?" Di Renjie led Zeng Tai and Li Yuanfang into the room thoughtfully.

Li Yuanfang looked around, then suddenly patted Xiao Jiluo on the shoulder: "Now I kind of believe the words of that crazy man outside!"

Xiao Jiluo blinked her eyes, a little puzzled.

Li Yuanfang picked up a knife: "This knife is called Huishou Night Walking Knife. Because it is light, sharp and easy to carry, the people who use this kind of knife are usually masters of martial arts who are accustomed to doing things at night."

"I know too!" Xiao Jiluo knew better than Li Yuanfang about Jianghu affairs.Not to mention, the Zangjian Ye family is famous for forging weapons, so it is clear who likes to use which weapons.

"What does that have to do with what the madman said?" Zeng Tai asked puzzled.

"I don't want to say why these [-] or [-] martial arts masters gathered here, but looking at the situation in the room, when they were killed, they didn't resist at all. A group of martial arts masters would not dare to fight until their lives were in danger. Resisting shows how terrifying the headless ghost is. But Xiaofei didn't run away when she met the headless ghost, and dared to try a real ghost and a fake ghost, didn't Brother Zeng have any ideas?"

"Ming Fei is truly the most courageous person in the world. Everyone says Yuan Fang that you are the best in martial arts, but I am not as courageous as Ming Fei." Zeng Tai said with emotion.

"Hey, not only Yuanfang, but you and I are also inferior!" Di Renjie smiled.

"So Uncle Yuanfang praised me as a little fairy?" Xiao Jiluo said a little proudly.

"If you're not a little fairy, you are a more terrifying existence than the Headless General!"

"...Uncle Yuanfang, knowing that you don't read much, I won't dislike you for not being able to speak."

"I'm praising you, why are you insulting me again?"

"Hmph~ Is there anyone who praises you so much?" Xiao Jiluo said, "What is a more terrifying existence than a headless general? He is obviously the cutest girl."

Because of Li Yuanfang and Xiao Jiluo's words, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly eased a little.

Di Renjie inspected the scene himself before he asked the government officials to collect the corpse.A package was found at the scene, which contained several sets of neatly folded clothes and an official guide named Fang Gensheng.

"These things should belong to that madman just now!" Di Renjie exhaled.

"Grandpa is saying that the madman is not from the village, but he was frightened crazy?" Little Jiluo asked.

"You ran fast just now, and you didn't hear it. We have already asked the villagers, and that person is not from the village."

"I see, he must have seen the headless general!"

"You said he saw the headless general, why didn't the headless general kill him?" Li Yuanfang was puzzled.

"The headless general ran around all over the world and killed people everywhere, and he never showed his whereabouts. The time Xiaofei found out should be his only mistake." Di Renjie said, "Don't you guys still understand what that madman looks like?"

"I understand!" Zeng Tai's eyes lit up, "The murderer deliberately let Fang Gensheng see it, just to let Fang Gensheng spread the news that it was the headless general who killed the man. As long as the people are convinced that the headless ghost kills people, even if we know that the other party is a person pretending to be a ghost." , There is no way to refute the rumors before we catch him."

"Not only that, but the other party's whereabouts were discovered, and they still acted like this. I'm afraid they have to do so." Di Renjie guessed, "They must be planning a big event, and this big event is likely to be related to the emperor."

"Related to the emperor?"

"The inner guard is the emperor's most trusted person, and he is also the most hated by civil and military officials. Most of the inner guard's errands are related to the emperor. Although I don't know what role the emperor played in this matter, but unintentionally, this matter has nothing to do with her. The elderly have something to do with it."

Although he guessed some clues, Di Renjie still planned to solve Jiang Xiaolang's old case first.He had a premonition that perhaps this decades-old case was solved, and many clues of the Bloody Eagle case would also be revealed.

Fang Gensheng was just overly frightened and not a real madman. Di Renjie gave him two needles, which made him regain some sanity.It turns out that Fang Gensheng is from the south of the Yangtze River and came to the capital to visit relatives.Because I heard that there is a shortcut to Enjizhuang, but I don't want to get lost.

It was raining in the middle of the night, and I was looking for a place to stay, but I strayed into the haunted house.When Fang Gensheng entered the haunted house, the headless general just finished killing everyone and drew the blood-dripping eagle on the wall.

On a rainy night, the ground was full of corpses, and a headless general was standing in front of him carrying twenty or thirty heads. Fang Gensheng fainted immediately.

Di Renjie sent someone to ask the people in Enji Village to ask questions, but they all fled back home as if they had seen a ghost.The yamen servant had no choice but to forcefully arrest the two old men and come back for questioning.

Zeng Tai coaxed and threatened, and finally made the two old men tell the whole story with trepidation.

It turned out that Jiangjiazhuang was originally divided into on-post and off-post, with the surname Jiang on the post and the refugees surnamed Pang taken in by Jiang Xiaolang.When Jiang Xiaolang betrayed Yuwen Chengdu and assassinated him, he was haunted by nightmares for several months.

A Taoist said that Yu Wencheng could not enter because his head was burned, and wanted to seek revenge from him.Jiang Xiaolang was afraid of the ghost's revenge, so he put his home under the post, which is the ghost house, and built the Xilin General Temple to worship Yuwen Chengdu.

In one night more than 60 years ago, more than 30 members of Jiang's family were all killed. Four months later, people surnamed Jiang on Gangshang and General Xilin's Temple were also burned down in a fire.These contents are basically consistent with what Gao Rujin said.To their surprise, the two old men randomly brought back by the yamen servants happened to be the only survivors with the surname Jiang.

Decades ago, the two were still teenagers, playing in the off-duty and living in other people's homes, but escaped unharmed.In order to prevent the ghost from revenge, both of them changed their surnames and lived under the post named Enji Village.

But what worried Di Renjie was that the two old men had never met Jiang Xiaolang.Not only them, but most of the people with the Jiang surname had never seen Jiang Xiaolang before their post was burned.

This Jiang Xiaolang is very mysterious. Although he is the patriarch of Jiangjiazhuang and his home is built under the hillock, he has never lived at home.So apart from Jiang Xiaolang's family members and subordinates, no one knew Jiang Xiaolang's appearance.

Knowing this information, Di Renjie decided to go back to the city first.

"Grandpa, Pang Jiushu and the others are not good to put them back like this!" Xiaojiluo said, "Since the other party is using the ghost of Yuwen Chengdu to commit crimes, it is likely to kill the two survivors surnamed Jiang in order to cause panic among the people!"

"You're right. We have a lot of people here, and no one can guarantee that tonight's affairs will not be leaked." Di Renjie nodded and said, "Yuan Fang—"

"Xiaozhi understands!" Li Yuanfang said, "Xiaozhi stays here to protect the people, so Xiao Fei will escort you back to the city!"

"Uncle Yuanfang, don't see the headless ghost's legs go weak!" Xiao Jiluo said with a grimace.

"Since you know it's a fake ghost, what's there to be afraid of!" Li Yuanfang snorted coldly.

"But, you're really afraid of ghosts! You're obviously scared to death, okay?"

Li Yuanfang: Bear boy, bring up black history again!

Xiao Jiluo took out a talisman from her pocket and stuffed it into Li Yuanfang's hand: "The pure Yang Palace talisman is the most effective at exorcising ghosts, so I'll give it to you!"

Li Yuanfang: ...I can't be moved at all!

"Decades ago, the Jiang family lost dozens of lives, and now nearly a hundred lives have been added to the murder case of bleeding. This case must be solved!" Di Renjie murmured.

"Grandpa, what are we going to do now?"

"Go to the emperor!"

After returning to Shendu, Di Renjie asked Zeng Tai to wait in Di's mansion, while he brought Xiao Jiluo into the palace.

"I'll see the emperor later, and play by ear," Di Renjie urged.

"I understand!"

The grandparents and grandchildren just walked to Tixiang Gate, but they were stopped by Zhang Jianzhi.It turned out that Zhang Jianzhi went to report to the emperor, but the steward of the inner palace said that the emperor just went to sleep after reviewing the memorial all night.

The emperor has been uneasy recently and neglected his official duties. It is well known that the so-called staying up all night to review memorials must be an excuse.

Zhang Jianzhi was going back home, but when he saw Di Renjie, he dragged Di Renjie to talk.

Di Renjie knew the elegant meaning after hearing the stringed songs, so he turned to the court room to talk with Zhang Jianzhi.There is no court meeting today, and there is no one in the court room.

Zhang Jianzhi's eyes subconsciously fell on Xiao Jiluo.

"Zhang Ge is old, but it's okay to say. Although Xiao Fei is young, she is young and chivalrous. I believe in myself." Di Renjie said.

"Since Mr. Ge said so, I will speak bluntly." Zhang Jianzhi nodded and said, "Does Mr. Ge know that the emperor fell ill again last night?"

"again?"

"Last night, the emperor was haunted by evil spirits again, and he almost controlled the dragon and bintian."

Di Renjie took a deep breath, suddenly, he understood that Zhang Jianzhi's visit to Guanfeng Palace was actually for the prince to find out the truth!

"How is this possible?" Xiao Jiluo couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Jianzhi was a little surprised, and Xiao Jiluo interrupted suddenly.

Xiao Jiluo pursed her lips and said, "The emperor has at least ten years left!"

Hearing this, Di Renjie was also a little surprised: "Before I checked the emperor's pulse, I also felt that the emperor's pulse did not seem to be approaching its end. Xiaofei has never seen the emperor, so where does this come from?"

Little Jiluo was a little nervous, and suddenly remembered that there were not only Di Renjie but also Zhang Jianzhi here, so she could only say nonsense: "I know how to read a physiognomy, I think the emperor can live to be at least eighty!"

Zhang Jianzhi shook his head with a smile, didn't pay attention to Xiao Jiluo's words, and continued to Di Renjie: "I heard that the emperor hurriedly recruited Wang Zhiyuan, the national teacher, into the palace last night, and ordered him to drive away ghosts and suppress demons. There are no ghosts in the world. The so-called ghosts come from the heart of a person, and Wang Zhiyuan and his like are just talking in front of the king to confuse the people in order to gain trust."

"This statement from Cambodia is deeply in my heart."

"Even if there are ghosts, it is impossible to get close to the emperor's body. A king has the crape myrtle energy to protect his body, and ordinary ghosts can't get close to him."

"You child, do you really believe in ghosts?" Di Renjie patted her and said.

"Grandpa, Buddhism says that there are three thousand worlds. Even if there are no ghosts in this world, it doesn't mean that there are no ghosts in other worlds." Xiao Jiluo recognized, "Otherwise, why don't you say I'm not afraid of the headless ghost? It is a ghost, and it can find a way to deal with it."

"What headless ghost?" Zhang Jianzhi asked curiously.

Di Renjie had to talk about the Bloody Eagle case with Zhang Jianzhi, but omitted the part that might be related to the inner guard of the plum blossom.The bloody eagle case has been sent to the cabinet, and Zhang Jianzhi has naturally read the official document.However, Zhang Jianzhi was concerned with the restoration of the Tang Dynasty and did not pay much attention to it.

"So it is!" Zhang Jianzhi nodded.

Di Renjie asked Xiao Jiluo to wait outside, and then talked with Zhang Jianzhi for a while.Zhang Jianzhi came to him so that the emperor could really control the dragon and bintian, and asked Di Renjie to come forward and call on his disciples to support the prince's ascension to the throne.

Di Renjie did not agree to do it now, and asked Zhang Jianzhi to be calm, so as not to fall into the enemy's trap.It's better to stand still and do nothing, and you can strike later.

After hearing Di Renjie's words, Zhang Jianzhi finally calmed down a little bit of eagerness, but entrusted Di Renjie to find out the truth.Although Di Renjie was not as radical as Zhang Jianzhi, he still supported the Tang Party, so he naturally did his part.
