Chapter 079: Clues, Careful and Not Missing
With the escort of the saint, the child can travel unimpeded all the way.
After Lin Sheng's death, the Lin Family Fort was empty, and it was unknown where the three brothers of the Lin Family fell into trouble.Walking near Linjiabao, Qi Qi felt a strange air current, hot and cold convection, head cold and feet hot.
This kind of feeling seems familiar, he also felt it when he was ugly like catching a wolf. He is a spiritual plant naturally conceived between heaven and earth.
At this moment, Xiao Hei suddenly trembled all over and ran in a certain direction.
The saint pointed a little, and Xiao Hei was floating in mid-air, unable to move.
Qi Qi picked up Xiao Hei, "Xiao Hei, what's wrong with you, you can't run around, it's very dangerous here."
Xiao Hei made a moaning sound and moved unwillingly, but why it ran, Xiao Hei couldn't explain it himself, and always felt that there was something in front of it that was very important to it.
The saint thought that Xiao Hei was naughty and couldn't communicate, so she simply hugged the three children and returned to Wei's house to prevent accidents.
Xiao Hei cried sadly, Xiao Long Bao hurriedly comforted him, this guy, immediately forgot about crying, pressed against Xiao Long Bao, sticking out his tongue to lick indiscriminately.
……
Yan Queqing and Xiuran Yujian flew to the west of the Gupo Plain, a thousand miles away from the Wei family.
The terrain in the middle of the Gupo Plain is complex, and the east is a hilly plain but the land is desolate. However, it is close to the Yongwu Plain and the Emperor's Kingdom. There are many scattered villages, most of which are mainly beasts and spiritual plants, and a small number of humans.On the contrary, in the west, the woods are getting denser, but the life is getting less and less. It is difficult to find settlements, and it is difficult to find them with Taiyi's map.
However, the two of them did not gain much, and the more they heard the story about the ghost land, the more confused they became.
Yan is miserable.
When the two came to the tea shed, Xiuran's beauty attracted too much attention from everyone, and even today, Yan Queqing is almost used to it.
With a jug of wine, the two chatted while drinking.
The owner of the tea shed was an old man, a drunkard, and because of his greedy drinking, he delayed the road to Xiuxian, but he liked it very much. Now he asked about the fragrance of Xiuran's wine.
Yan Queqing and Xiuran looked at each other—they were hooked.
The tea shed is very old, at least a hundred years old, and there are always caravans and people, so the old man must know a lot.But the old man has a weird personality, many people ask him for news, but they often ignore him.
Yan Queqing never left his body when he saw the wine gourd on the old man's waist, so the wine trick was born.
After drinking a glass of spiritual wine, the old man started talking, as long as he could drink a glass, even if he bought him, he was willing.
The old man said that there were indeed people who slaughtered villages and robbed roads, but they all happened in the east. There were three massacres in the west. One village was still a group of blood rats. Become a river of blood, otherwise no one will know.
Yan Queqing and Xiuran looked at each other, they didn't expect even monsters to be murdered.
"The old man has seen any suspicious people?"
The old man was drunk, but conscious, he thought for a while and shook his head, "Hey, so what about the army, they are not Ye's army."
"Oh, the army was here."
"It's more than once." The old man looked at them. "I said, you look good, why ask about this, it's unreasonable."
"There are a lot of people who have died recently, so I'm curious, but the army has been here, and those criminals are still so rampant."
The old man seemed to be drunk, and he answered irrelevant questions, "Hey, Ye's army is doing well, they are dedicated to the people, a prince can do this, Hua Luo is really amazing."
Yan Queqing always felt that there was something in the old man's words, and then asked if he had seen a group of people wearing dark green clothes.
The old man chuckled, "The clothes are the same after you take them off and put them on again. They are just a cover-up."
"Well, have you ever seen some adults passing by with many children?"
The old man shook his head.
Next, the old man was immersed in his own world, no longer answering Yan Queqing's questions, holding the jug, and talking about his own affairs.
The old man has opened a tea shed for 300 years, his wife does not know how many times he has been reincarnated, and his great-grandson has also turned into bones, leaving him alone.
Yan Queqing couldn't help feeling that his relatives and friends were all cultivators, so there was no need to watch them die of old age.
At this time, Xiuran held onto his hand tightly, whether one day he would watch Yan Queqing die, thinking of this, he thought, he understood Lin Sheng's feelings.
……
On the other side, Hua Li, feeling bored at Wei's house, also came out. Besides Kan, Luo Xiangming and Yuan Wen were also with him.
Luo Xiangming acted as the guide, Yuan Wen was in charge of protection, and set off with a small group of people.
Walking slowly towards the Emperor's Kingdom, there is a village nearby that was massacred. At that time, the children were infected with a disease. Some parents took their children to the town to see a doctor, and ordinary villagers survived.
Hua Li asked them for questioning.
For some reason, these villagers were very afraid of them. When a child threw a stone at them, his sister immediately carried him away, and threw it the second time. Hua Li was puzzled, "Hey, why are you throwing us?"
When Hua Li entered the village and said that he wanted to catch the culprit, the people were not happy, and some even smiled ironically, as if to refute them—this is impossible.
Yuan Wen said, "Prince, it's just a bunch of troublemakers, don't worry about it."
Kan Min keenly discovered that the villagers were afraid and...hatred towards them?
It's understandable to be afraid, but where does the hatred come from? It's the first time they come here. No matter whether Hua Li was just called a prince before or now, he will not do bad things by virtue of his status as a prince, and they don't know Hua Li's identity. .
Yuan Wen was ashamed, "Hey, it's all my fault. Not only did I fail to protect them well, but now I can't even catch the murderer. They should hate us."
Luo Xiangming comforted, "The gang of criminals came and went without a trace, and the whereabouts of the money can't be traced."
Kan asked, "The Lin family also did robbery, could it be that they did it?"
Luo Xiangming shook his head. Linjiazhai has a set of rules for robbery. Robbery does not rob the poor, robs wealth but does not rob sex, uses words but does not use hands, hurts people but does not kill, only robs outsiders, robs from time to time and from place to place. If there is room to rob, then leave.This style does not look like a murderer who slaughtered a village.
Kan nodded, it was the same as Yinwei's investigation, and Yinwei had been watching for several days, absolutely did not violate the regulations, and even quietly helped when encountering difficulties, sometimes killing people was boring, and planting flowers and plants on the side , It is a group of strange bandits.
As for the other group of bandits, their style is completely opposite, greedy, bloodthirsty and vicious, will they wait until the rumors subside before spending unknown money?The answer is no.
They are elusive, ruthless, have many capable people, and have channels for money laundering. The background of these bandits is not simple.
At this time, Kan thought of a possibility, turned around and said to Hua Li, "It's been long enough, let's go back."
Hua Li was stunned for a while, then looked up at the sky, it was indeed getting late, so he nodded.
After they left, the villagers who hid behind the house and held all kinds of earthen weapons felt relieved.
After returning, Yan Queqing and Kan had a good understanding and were anxious to discuss important matters with their own people.
After Kan talked about the village, and with the lack of some people at this time, Xiuran understood, "The thief is calling for the thief."
The rest were startled, and then lowered their heads to think about this possibility.
Everyone is familiar with the scene of thieves yelling and catching thieves. This is rare. People wanted to ask for details. At this time, Yinwei came to report that a villager's body was found in Xiaohe Village at Beifengkou.
In Xiaohe Village, Hua Li and Kan exchanged glances. Isn't that the village they went to today?
"The dead man's name is Ergou, a well-known rogue in the village. He was 30 years old and was found dead at home around Xu. The strange thing is that the villagers didn't report it to the police. They were just afraid and frightened. No one thought of catching the murderer."
How did you find out about the dead so quickly. "Yan Queqing asked Yinwei.
"Oh, Kan told us to stay."
"Yes, these villagers know something."
"Shortly after Xiao Lizi left, he died. It can't be a coincidence. It's not too late. Let's go and see."
Hua Li echoed, "Yes, yes, let's go."
Jinyu said, "The body is just cold, not yet stiff, and the time of death was not more than an hour. The cause of death was suffocation, and there were no suspicious wounds on the surface."
Little Hei's nose moved in the air, his paws touched Qi Qi's shoes, and Qi Qi put his ears together, "Xiao Hei said it smells like wine."
"liquor?"
Yan Queqing lowered his head and smelled it, it was indeed wine.
"Hey, it can't be that I was too drunk and choked."
"No, he was murdered." Jin Yu said categorically, "I choked on something important, so he must struggle, but his current posture is like falling asleep. Have you ever seen someone who choked to death? Man, so peaceful."
"That's true, then how did he die?"
"If I'm not wrong, we've seen this kind of death before."
"what?"
"Tiejia Palace."
"This is usually a method of confession and punishment. How can he do this to a villager? Does he know anything?"
"I think it's not for interrogation, but to warn those people not to say things they shouldn't say."
"Mr. is right. No matter how we asked about the deceased, they refused to answer. The village chief only said it was an accident."
"
Kan smiled sarcastically, "You can be stupid." As soon as the two left, a homicide occurred in the village, which is self-evident.
"Who are you calling stupid?" Hua Li didn't understand.
"you!"
Hua Li became angry, "Hey, you! You are powerful, you are smart, and you have the ability to solve this murder case. I call you Grandpa."
"Okay."
"Ah, Kan solves the case, it's a good show." Everyone watched the fun and was naturally happy.
Kan's work is neat and fast. First, he investigates Ergou's murder in a high-profile manner. At night, he asks the hidden guard, Yu, to pretend to be a rogue friend of the deceased, and meet Luo Xiangming and Yuan Wen in the middle of the night.
Yu first told Luo Xiangming that he had clues to Ergou's death.
Luo Xiangming met him immediately.
Yu rubbed his palms, looking like a villain, holding a jar of wine, and first greeted him, Luo Xiangming thought he had something important to tell him, so he listened patiently, but there was something wrong with what he said, and he asked himself Give him some money to cover his mouth.
Yu was careful but couldn't resist greed, and said flatteringly, "Oh, my lord, don't you be reluctant to part with the money, money is something else. You gave me the money, and I will tell the villagers when I turn around, my life is important, no What should be said will never be mentioned to the prince..."
"Prince?" Luo Xiangming became more and more confused.
"Hey, the murder that happened this time, oh, it scared us a lot. My family members are all dead, and I only want three meals for food and clothing. In that case, my life will belong to the adults. For the adults Go up the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire."
As he spoke, he rubbed his index finger and middle finger with his thumb, smiling maliciously.
Now Luo Xiangming understood everything!He slapped the table angrily, "You bastard!"
Yu's acting skills were really good, and he immediately threw himself on the ground begging for mercy, "My lord, my lord, I was wrong, I was wrong."
Luo Xiangming wanted to beat him up, but seeing how cowardly he was, he couldn't get angry, "You rascal, the one who died was someone from your village, how big the village is, you can't look up and look down, you, you are not for the dead... "In the middle of speaking, Yinwei suddenly came and sealed the acupuncture point, unable to move.
"Hmph, then I'll kill you to silence you." While tying him up, he took out the mulberry paper, "I'll use your method of killing Ergou."
As he spoke, he took a sip of white wine and sprayed it on the mulberry paper.
Luo Xiangming didn't know what he was doing at all, and he looked dazed.
