The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 127: ‘Horse Hammer' and Battle Dingxiu

When he came, Sun Shaozong was only 60% sure of his inference, but after Qin Kejian ”invited” him out of the Northern Dragon Guard, it rose to 90%!

Yeah~

This time, he did not resist at all. He was obediently ”invited” out of the Detective Department by the North Town Magistrate.

As for the reason…

As a special investigator, Qin Kejian was obviously frightened.

Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian might be involved in the case of Jin Yichuan's impostor, even though their positions were low and their duties were shallow. At that time, they would not be able to protect themselves, let alone continue to investigate the case.

Therefore, it was only a waste of time to stay in the Northern Detective Department.

To tell the truth, Sun Shaozong hesitated before leaving the Northern Detective Department, wondering whether he would simply give up pursuing the case.

After all, according to the current situation, even if Jin Yichuan did not mention the killing of an official who pretended to be an official, he could hardly bear the word "innocent." At best, it was a case of retribution.

For a person who was not ”innocent,” it was not a good deal to fight with a powerful murderer!

So Sun Shaozong's heart was shaken.

It’s just that…

That guy didn't write anything else, but he left the word *"Divine Judgement" after killing someone. This murderer was clearly challenging him. If the murderer was not caught, Sun Shaozong's mind would be incomprehensible!

Hu~~~

At this moment, a loud whistle suddenly came from the roadside!

Unconsciously, Sun Shaozong followed the source of the sound and saw a strong man, like a Japanese ronin, standing on the roof of a grocery store diagonally in front of him. On his shoulder, he was carrying a long knife in both hands.

Ding Xiu?!

As soon as the name flashed through Sun Shaozong's mind, he saw the man give him an evil smile, then turned around and jumped into a remote alley.

Is there any trap set?

With this in mind, Sun Shaozong did not hesitate and hurried his horse over.

When he entered the alley, he saw that it was empty and that there was no trace of Ding Xiu.

But this alley was four or five hundred meters long. Ding Xiu wouldn’t be able to escape that fast.

On top!

Sun Shaozong was about to look up when he saw a cold streak coming through, cutting both the head of a man and the head of a horse!

Sun Shaozong didn’t even think about it, and he rolled down from the horse's back with his shoulder tilted. As soon as he rolled over and stood firm, he saw a horse's head rolling to the ground, and the hot horse blood gushed out of the cavity for about ten feet!

Looking at that Ding Xiu, he has been fooling around in the alley.

"Your saber technique is good."

Sun Shaozong gave a cool praise.

"Many people have said so."

Ding Xiu shrugged, still looking cynical, "But they all died later."

"You mean, I will die too?"

"It's not certain who will live or die with your ability." Ding Xiu held the long sword in his hand and said with a little sarcasm, "But who told you, officials, not to go out with weapons?"

"Weapons?"

Sun Shaozong bent down and grabbed the two legs of the horse, laughing, "Isn't it already here?"

Before he could finish speaking, he had already swung the body of the horse, which weighed more than seven hundred pounds, and hit Ding Xiu like a heavy hammer!

Ding Xiu's saber technique was most particular about being indomitable. He never retreats when confronting enemies.

Today, however, he had to retreat, and retreat again and again!

Ding Xiu has never seen a master who could lift a horse, and he never dreamed that someone could use a horse as a hammer!

Moreover, the feet were still brisk, without any reluctance!

Monster!

This word was usually used by those weak chickens to describe Master Ding. But today, for the first time, he used it on someone else!

Brush~

Ding Xiu dodged the horse hammer.

A cloak of blood was thrown out from the broken neck and was pouring on Ding Xiu's head and face!

The horse's blood blindfolded Ding Xiu's eyes. Ding Xiu couldn't see anything for a moment. The howling wind came from his ears. It was too late to dodge, so he had to bite his teeth and use a broadsword to block it.

Bang!

With a dull noise, Ding Xiu was pasted like paper on the wall and hit a big swallow on the wall!

Seeing Ding Xiu slip off the wall and fall to the ground again, Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "Stop pretending. I just restrained myself, or else I would have killed you long ago."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Ding Xiu coughed up a mouthful of blood. The bachelor threw the long knife on the ground and said, "Come on, what do you want to know, or want me to do?"

This fellow was a wise man.

Sun Shaozong also threw the dead horse at his feet and said with a straight face, "Why did you want to kill me just now?"

"Someone told me that you killed my Junior Brother."

.

"So you want to get revenge for Jin Yichuan?"

"It's not revenge."

Ding Xiu cocked his mouth and said, "Naturally, only I can kill my Younger Martial Brother. If someone else steals my business, the person will naturally have to pay me some ”interest!”

It couldn’t be seen that this idiot was still double-faced!

But…

"Someone?"

Sun Shaozong added, "So you don't think I killed him now?"

"If you were the murderer, why would you be asking now?"

Ding Xiu said angrily, "Needless to say, I was taken as a scapegoat!"

After a pause, he added, "This morning, a group of Dragon Guards came here inexplicably. They insisted and claimed that I killed Ding Xian. I thought I could not escape. When I was going to fight my way out, someone suddenly let me escape!"

"At that time, it was the Dragon Guard who gave me a note saying that your fault was held by my Younger Martial Brother, so you designed to kill him!"

Planting and framing?

Is this the meaning of Qin Kejian or the murderer?

Sun Shaozong frowned and said, "So you believe it?"

"It's doubtful." Ding Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "I was in a bad mood. Thus, I plan to kill first before investigating."

This idiot is really…

However, only such unscrupulous people were not afraid of the real murderer behind the scenes.

Sun Shaozong thought like this and said, "If you really want to know how Jin... Ding Xian died, you might as well go and check first. When the He family of the Imperial Merchant searched and confiscated their property, what is the relationship between the rickshaw driver who died in the hands of your Younger Martial Brother and the Young Madam of the He family?"

"The rickshaw driver? The Young Madam of the He family?"

Ding Xiu said inexplicably, "What nonsense? It shouldn’t be that you are saying that my Junior Brother was actually killed by a woman, do you?"

"That woman is now the Concubine of Qian Ning, the Inspector of the Northern State. I heard that Lord Qian was fascinated by her."

"You mean..."

Ding Xiu frowned and said angrily, "Why the hell should I do such a dangerous thing?!"

Sun Shaozong was about to give him a reason, but he saw this guy raise his head and said, "You should give some benefit, right?"

This idiot…

Sun Shaozong was speechless and suddenly kicked the dead horse in front of Ding Xiu. He said, expressionless, "Drag it to the butcher's shop and sell it. All the money belongs to you."

With that, he left the alley without looking back, leaving Ding Xiu and the horse's blood all over the floor.
