Gongsun performed a detailed autopsy on Cao Kui's body and told everyone that he had found some interesting things.

Zhan Zhao and others simply gathered in the room to discuss.

"I discovered a few doubtful points." Gongsun looked at the masters sitting there and said, "Cao Kui is the number one scholar in martial arts, right?"

Zhan Zhao and others all nodded.

"But I infer from his body that he may not know martial arts."

"Is it possible that I haven't practiced for a long time, so I have deteriorated?" Zhao Pu asked.

Gongsun shook his head, "I didn't pay much attention to it at first. I also thought that Cao Kui might have deteriorated in martial arts because he hadn't practiced martial arts for many years. He was in good health and not as weak as a scholar. But after a careful autopsy, I found that his upper body was very strong and his legs were strong.

The part is not solid.

"What does this mean?" Huo Feng wondered, "Do you often lift heavy objects?"

"This kind of figure is that of people who have been farming all year round." Gongsun made a gesture like swinging a spade and a pickaxe.

"Farming?!" Zhan Zhao found it incredible, "Cao Taiwei can be considered a versatile person in both civil and military affairs. Is he from a farming background?"

"It's completely inconsistent with his background."

Zhao Pu shook his head repeatedly, "Cao Taiwei is from Yingtian Mansion. His family is considered a scholar. Although he is not rich and powerful, he can definitely afford to study and practice martial arts. How can he be allowed to farm."

"The Taiwei is still very capable, right?" Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao nodded, "I have dealt with him several times. He is a very reliable person, and he feels very decent."

Zhao Pu also nodded repeatedly, "Lao Cao is a talent, otherwise the emperor would not be so distressed."

"That's weird, what's going on?" Lin Yehuo shook his head.

"I haven't finished speaking yet." Gongsun motioned for everyone to continue listening to him, "This is not the only suspicion!"

"Cao Kui's tendons are particularly strange." Gongsun continued, "I have observed that the tendons of martial arts practitioners are different from those of ordinary people. People who practice martial arts usually have better kung fu and smoother tendons.

People often suffer from stagnation of muscles and veins."

"What's going on with Cao Kui?" Huo Feng was curious.

"It seems that Taiwei Cao Kui is a man with extremely high martial arts skills!"

Gongsun's words stunned everyone.

"Then does he know martial arts or not?"

"There is something even more suspicious."

"What else?!" Everyone looked at Gongsun in confusion.

"He has calluses on his hands." Gongsun said this and stretched out his hand. "He has calluses and rough skin, which is consistent with the position of my hands. Including Mr. Bao, Bao Yan, and me

Grandpa Gongsun is the same, one side of the middle finger, the outside of the little finger, and the pad of the thumb. This is a common situation among scholars who use pens all year round."

Now, everyone was even more confused and looked at Gongsun.

Zhan Zhao scratched his head, "So the Taiwei is indeed an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes and no." Gongsun shook his head and asked Bai Yutang, "You are also versatile in both civil and military affairs. Do you have calluses on your hands from writing?"

Zhan Zhao grabbed Bai Yutang's hand and looked at it. Others came over and looked at their own hands.

Zhan Zhao touched the places mentioned by Gongsun. His mouse's hands were naturally long and beautiful, and indeed there were no calluses.

Several martial arts practitioners spread their hands and looked at their palms.

Gongsun pointed to the calluses on their palms and fingertips, "Did you see that? These are the hands a martial artist should have."

"Many of the so-called all-round talents in both civil and military affairs are acquired by chance." He then pointed to Bai Yutang, "He is evenly distributed, right? But for him, literature is just a hobby, and martial arts is the most important thing.

Serious business."

Zhan Zhao and others nodded, and Master Wu also nodded. He was not interested in asking him to write an article or something. The so-called article was probably because of his good memory.

"Even the Confucian generals in the military camp will not have such obvious characteristics of scholars!" Gongsun continued, "The problem with the Taiwei is that he is indeed versatile in both civil and military affairs, but not the normal kind of versatile in both civil and military affairs.

It feels like a professional literati, a professional warrior and an ordinary person working the land come together."

"Could it be that the emphasis was on martial arts in the early years and the emphasis on literature in recent years?" Lin Yehuo gave a hypothesis.

Gongsun pointed to his middle finger and said, "This is a boy's skill."

Everyone laughed.

"Moreover, the muscles and veins on his body are as they were during the peak period of martial arts, and have not deteriorated at all." Gongsun felt that this was not the case.

No one is sure whether this is a clue or not.

"Cao Kui is indeed a bit weird... Do you want to open the lock column and take a look?" Zhan Zhao suggested, "Don't you think there are fragrant wood pieces inside? Let's see who wants to kill him... or who he wants to kill?"

Everyone nodded, thinking it was feasible.

After closing the door and holding the candle away, Zhan Zhao took the ink stick and the ink stick in his hand, studied it, and gave it to Bai Yutang - how to open it?

Fifth Master also studied it carefully, "It seems that it can only be opened by destroying it."

Zhao Pu curled his lips, reached out, took it, clicked it, and twisted it off.

A small piece of wood fell out from the lock cylinder that was stuck in half. Zhan Zhao reached out to catch it. Everyone came over to take a look and saw three words on the wood piece.

The moment they saw these three words, everyone gasped.

However, just when everyone was surprised, those two words disappeared.

"Didn't you mention the murderer and the date?" Zhan Zhao quickly turned over the piece of wood, but there was indeed a row of words on the back, but most of it had disappeared, leaving only the last two words "Shen Shi".

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, "When will the time come?"

Then they all shook their heads - no one saw it!

"Oops!" Zhao Pu shook his head and ran out, "I'm going to find Nangong."

Zhan Zhao and others also felt that something was wrong.

The three words on the front of the fragrant wood piece are - kill Zhao Zhen.

Thinking back to the legend of Hei Wuchang... does it mean that someone wants Zhao Zhen's life?

The development of things was far beyond expectations.

"This lock pillar is in Cao Kui's hands." Lin Yehuo asked, "Did the Taiwei participate in the plan to kill the emperor, or did he discover that someone wanted to kill the emperor?"

"This lock cylinder is made to death. It's impossible to get out the contents inside unless it's broken." Mr. Wu said while studying the fragrant wood piece. "I don't know what kind of potion this thing was written with. If you see the light,

Just disappear."

Zhan Zhao reminded, "We always thought this was an ancient object, but since the emperor's name is written on it, it means it is not an ancient object!"

"And Hei Wuchang was not found at Cao Kui's house, but you two picked it up on the roadside." Gongsun asked, "Did someone accidentally drop it, or did he throw it in front of you on purpose?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both frowned and thought.

"That carriage looks like an accidental encounter." Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "But... it's quite strange that it disappeared out of thin air after encountering it."

"The White Ghost King said that if the fragrant wood pieces are taken out, the curse will take effect immediately." Gongsun reminded everyone, "Are we assassinating the king and killing him?"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"We still can't be too honest." Zhan Zhao picked up the things on the table, then took the Hei Wuchang, and ran to the next yard with Bai Yutang and the others to find the Silver Demon King.

The yard next door is quite lively. On the stone table in the middle, Tianzun, Yin Hou, Yao Changtian and Lu Tianhan are playing horse crane. On the other side, Gongsun and Silver Demon King are sitting under the tree drinking tea.

Zi Qigong, one watched Xiao Liangzi practice Qigong, and enjoyed himself happily.

Zhan Zhao and others walked into the courtyard and felt that it was so happy and happy here. It was completely different from the anxious people next door. I was envious!

Tianzun and Yin Hou's table seemed to be making a lot of noise. Lu Tianhan just made a fool of himself. Tianzun and Yin Hou said that he and Yao Changtian were in love.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang visually assessed that there was a danger of being beaten at this time, so they ran to find the Silver Demon King.

The demon king was holding a cup to ask Xiao Liangzi to take a break and drink some water, and was using a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang subconsciously squinted at Tianzun and Yin Hou - your masters are obviously very considerate, why are you so over the top when teaching kung fu?!

Just when he was dissatisfied, the demon king patted Xiao Liangzi on the head and said, "The knife posture just now was too ugly. I'll practice it a hundred times again."

Xiao Liangzi gasped, "A hundred times?"

The Demon King smiled slightly, "Are you dissatisfied? Two hundred times!"

Xiao Liangzi was so frightened that he hurriedly ran to continue practicing.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang sighed - they are indeed their disciples...

Turning his face, the Silver Demon King saw what was in everyone's hands. He was slightly stunned, and then curiously asked, "What was written?"

On the other side, the four people who were making a fuss suddenly fell silent. Looking over curiously, even Gongsun and Xiao Sizi raised their heads.

"Ahem." Zhan Zhao replied awkwardly, "Kill Zhao Zhen..."

Several elderly people also looked surprised. The Demon King then asked, "Where is the murderer and the time?"

"Uh..." Zhan Zhao was helpless, "I just saw the word 'Shen Shi'."
