Chapter 117: The Manual of the Sword to Exorcise Evil?

Chapter 117: Pi... Pi Xie Sword Manual?
When Li Chengze opened the cassock in the box, he found that it was covered with densely written words.

And at the top of the text, there were four big characters written.

"The Manual of the Sword to Exorcise Evil"!
Ok? ? ?
When Li Chengze saw the words on the cassock, he was instinctively stunned.

He thought he had seen it wrong, so he gently closed his robes.

"I must have opened it the wrong way just now. Let me open it again and have a look."

Li Chengze chuckled and reached out to open the cassock again.

There were still four big characters written on the cassock.

"The Manual of the Sword to Exorcise Evil"!
Li Chengze closed it again and opened it again.

He tried it several times, but the words on the robes remained unchanged.

Moreover, when Li Chengze carefully read the text inside, he found that it was clearly written at the beginning: "If you want to practice this skill, castrate yourself!"

Grass!
It really is "The Book of the Sword of Exorcism"!

At this point, Li Chengze could finally confirm that the reward he had just received was from the Lin family's "Bixie Sword Manual".

Li Chengze threw the cassock in his hand to the ground and said angrily: "I am not Lin Pingzhi, practicing Mao's "Sword Manual of Exorcism."

"Who would castrate themselves to practice sword fighting?"

"The rewards given by this system are getting more and more weird. It's better not to give them at all."

Li Chengze's current martial arts realm is about to reach the ninth level. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to reach this level in a short time.

Maybe, he can become a grandmaster in the future.

Not only that, Li Chengze will be able to marry Ye Ling'er and Lin Wan'er soon, and a happy sex life is beckoning to him.

He would have to be crazy to give up such a good thing and practice the "Sword Manual of Exorcism".

However, Li Chengze suddenly thought of something.

Since he doesn't want to practice this secret book, he can let someone else practice it.

After all, this "Sword Manual of Exorcism" is quite powerful. If one can practice it successfully, the strength should not be underestimated.

I just don't know who should be allowed to practice this secret book.

Li Chengze stood there in contemplation for a moment, then picked up the robes from the ground and put them back into the wooden box.

When there is an opportunity in the future, let his sword masters choose for themselves whether to practice or not.

If someone with strength above the ninth rank practices this secret book, he may be able to break through to the level of a grandmaster.

Faced with such a great temptation, someone will definitely be tempted.

Thinking of this, Li Chengze laughed, picked up the wooden box, and walked towards the bedroom.

……

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Emperor Qing was sitting at his desk as usual, fiddling with something black in his hands.

Soon, a middle-aged eunuch walked in from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, General Ye and the Deputy Commander request a meeting."

Emperor Qing continued to fiddle with the things in his hand and said without raising his head:

"Let them in."

"Yes." The middle-aged eunuch immediately turned and left.

A moment later, Ye Chong and Gong Dian walked over quickly.

"I have met His Majesty!"

Ye Chong and Gong Dian bowed to Emperor Qing in unison.

Emperor Qing nodded and said, "No need to be polite."

"You two gentlemen have come to see me, there must be good news."

Ye Zhong said: "Your Majesty, there is indeed news."

As he spoke, he pulled out a glazed tile from his wide sleeve. "Your Majesty, I found this on a roof somewhere. It must have been left by the murderer."

"Really?" Emperor Qing then raised his head and winked at the middle-aged eunuch not far away.

The other party understood what he meant and immediately walked in front of Ye Zhong, took the glazed tile, and then walked in front of Emperor Qing.

Ye Zhong said again: "Your Majesty, after a simple investigation, I have learned that this glazed tile is stained with gunpowder."

"Moreover, we discovered that the location of this glazed tile is facing the gate of the East Palace, so..."

Emperor Qing picked up the glazed tile on the table, put it in front of his eyes and examined it carefully, and then smelled the smell on it.

He was completely certain that what Ye Chong had just said was correct, and what was stuck on it was indeed gunpowder.

Emperor Qing put down the glazed tile in his hand and said, "You mean, the location where this tile was found is facing the gate of the East Palace?"

Ye nodded and said, "Yes, that's true."

Emperor Qing asked: "How far is it?"

Ye Zhong thought for a moment and said, "About two miles away."

Emperor Qing nodded and said, "Okay, I already know about this."

"What else did you gain?"

Ye Zhong bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and have not found any other clues."

"Your Majesty, please punish me."

Emperor Qing waved his hand and said, "Well, it's great that you were able to find this clue."

"From now on, the search for the prince's murderer ends here."

"You don't need to search anymore, just go back and rest."

Ye Chong and Gong Dian both breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Emperor Qing's words.

In this way, their lives can be saved!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ye Chong and Gong Dian bowed in unison.

Emperor Qing said: "Okay, everyone go down, I have other things to do."

Ye Chong and Gong Dian bowed to Emperor Qing again before turning around and leaving.

Soon after, Emperor Qing was the only one left in the imperial study.

After Emperor Qing looked at the tiles on the table, a hint of inquiring sneer immediately appeared on his face.

It seems that his previous guess was completely correct.

The person who killed the prince must be related to Ye Qingmei.

Only the weapon in her hand could kill someone directly from two miles away.

Back then, when he was still a prince, he had already seen the horror of that weapon.

If we look at it this way, the scope of the murderer is narrowed down a lot.

No, to be precise, the murderer has been identified as a certain person!
Emperor Qing looked up towards the outside of the palace and muttered to himself:
"That little guy has been in Kyoto for several days. I should find an opportunity to meet him."

"I just don't know if he will disappoint me."

Just as Emperor Qing was talking to himself, a voice was heard outside the door.

"The Queen Mother is here!"

Emperor Qing came to his senses when he heard the eunuch's shouting.

Soon after, the Queen Mother, with a worried look on her face, walked slowly in from outside.

When Emperor Qing saw the Queen Mother, he quickly stood up and said, "Mother, why are you here?"

When the Queen Mother came before Emperor Qing, she immediately said, "I came here this time to tell you that I already know who killed the Crown Prince."

"It was that bitch Ye Qingmei. She was the one who killed the prince."

Emperor Qing said, "Mother, are you confused? How could it be that Ye Qingmei killed someone?"

"Ye Qingmei died more than ten years ago!"
