Nightwatcher
Chapter 3 The world of Xianxia can also reason
No one can answer this question.
Li Yuchun said: What is the reason why the monster robbed the tax money?
Chen Fu Yin pondered for a while: Monsters never ask their hearts when they do things, they do what they want, and they investigate the reasons, but they are just asking for trouble.
The girl in the yellow skirt had a different opinion: Isn't human flesh more delicious? Wait a moment, I'll finish the buns first.
She ate the two big meat buns in a 'crack-crack-crack' manner, and her face turned into a small steamed bun. She swallowed it hard and drank a sip of tea before continuing the topic just now, and she could talk freely about human flesh things:
The demons have no scruples in doing things. In their eyes, money may not be attractive to real people. Even if they want money, stealing or robbing is safer than directly robbing tax money.
In Dafeng Capital, it is too risky to rob the tax bank in the street.
Chen Fuyin nodded: The words are reasonable, and it cannot be ruled out that they were instigated by others.
Li Yuchun squinted his eyes: Then who would instruct the demons to steal the tax money? What is the reason? Why does it have to be this batch of tax money, it has to be 150,000 taels.
Let's think about it this way. The mastermind behind the scenes needs a huge sum of money, but he can't make too much noise. To be precise, he can't amass money recklessly. Chen Fuyin's heart moved.
So you focused on the tax bank? The girl in the yellow skirt pursed her brightly colored lips.
The route of the tax and silver escort is random, and it is decided temporarily by Xu Pingzhi, a hundred households of Yudaowei, but the monster can ambush the escort team in the river in advance, and it is very likely that there is an internal response. Li Yuchun said, looking at Chen Fuyin:
Go to Yunlu Academy and find a Confucian expert to ask your heart?
The girl in the yellow skirt gave him a sideways look: Are you looking down on our Si Tianjian's qi-watching technique? I've already said that the soldiers who were escorting the tax money didn't know anything about it.
The train of thought was stuck again, and the three of them were silent for a while.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Li Yuchun lowered his head to read the file carefully, Chen Fuyin sighed. The girl in the yellow skirt was fiddling with the feng shui dish at her waist, thinking that she had to leave Jingzhao Mansion before sunset and go to the palace to have a meal with the eldest princess.
The craftsmanship of the palace chef is first-class in the world!
Compared with them, the girl in yellow skirt named Caiwei is more of a guest official and assists in handling cases.
She has no official position, and although she is one of the persons in charge of the case, she does not need to bear too much responsibility.
Chen Fuyin's eyes moved slightly, and he tentatively said: The current case is progressing slowly, and the time is urgent, which makes people feel anxious. Master Li, why don't you ask Wei Gong for advice?
The middle-aged man gave him a sideways look, and snorted coldly: Your civil servants have the Beijing police, and we also have the guards. To be honest, this is the assessment that Duke Wei gave me.
Chen Fuyin smiled wryly: This case can't be solved, and I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the position under my ass. Both the government and the opposition are watching us.
The two looked at each other in silence, and the atmosphere was dignified.
If it's a monster, then there's nothing I can do! Xu Qi'an's face turned pale, feeling the deep malice of God.
There are monsters in this world. The monster race has existed since ancient times, hunting and devouring each other with humans.
In the 100,000 mountains of southern Xinjiang, there is a kingdom of ten thousand monsters, which is the largest settlement of the monster race.
Five hundred years ago, under the leadership of Buddhism, the western countries declared war on the demon kingdom in the southern border. They fought a war for a long time, and finally wiped out the demon kingdom.
The history books named this battle Jiazi Swinging Monsters.
Since then, the demon clan's luck has been damaged and gradually declined. Since then, Buddhism has soared into the sky, and Buddhism has flourished.
Using the knowledge of Xu Qi'an's later generations, human beings won the battle for the top of the food chain.
If the tax money was done by a monster, then only by recovering the money can he save himself and the Xu family.
As an unyielding silver at the pinnacle of refinement, Xu Qi'an felt that there was no way for him to come back.
In the autumn season, the weather was damp and cold, and Xu Qi'an broke out in a cold sweat.
He is scared!
Integrating the memory of the original owner, he knew that it was impossible for him to escape from prison, and he also knew that in this society where the imperial power is high, human rights are too weak.
Life and death are all in the mind of others.
I also fantasized about going back to the ancient times to copy poems and pretend to be forced, and I thought it was very cool, but the reality slapped him hard.
Even if you cross time, you will be severely beaten by society.
No, this is just a guess. It's just the guess of the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion. I can't be influenced by their guess. I can do it myself, and I can save it if I analyze it myself, and I can save it.
The strong desire to survive made him calm down quickly, and his logic became rigorous and clear again.
Why do monsters steal tax money? Isn't human flesh good? Even if you are short of money, there is no need to stare at tax money. Listening to the book says that all the demon women of the demon clan are all charming and exquisite. I don't know if there are any cats and dogs.
Slap! Xu Qi'an slapped himself, Re-reason!
The most important thing in reasoning is to do subtraction, list the clues one by one, and sort them out.
Otherwise, it is a ball of wool, which will only become more and more chaotic.
The two most obvious clues in the tax and bank case:
One: Demon Wind!
Two: Tax silver exploded after falling into the river!
Except for Wu Fu, all the major cultivation systems have the ability to blow demon wind, therefore, 'clue one' can only be used as evidence that 'practice' participated, and no more detailed goals can be given.
The suspicion of the second uncle who was born in Wufu has been alleviated, although it is not ruled out that he conspired with others.
The explosion of clue 2 is an unreasonable suspicion. It is normal for high-level practitioners to fight and cause explosions. However, there was no armed struggle in this tax bank disappearance case, so the occurrence of the explosion was unreasonable.
Unless it has to explode! Xu Qi'an murmured.
Among the major cultivation systems, are there any occupations that require explosions to achieve their goals?
Xu Qi'an thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, and then realized that he and Jing Zhaofu had made the same mistake.
Jingzhaofu's thinking went wrong at the very beginning. According to the most obvious clues in the case, it was judged that the murderer was a monster, and then he ran wildly on this road, never to return.
This is not wrong, the problem is that this judgment is too hasty.
Although Xu Qi'an has integrated his memory, he is still dominated by the thinking of modern people and mainly based on the experience of his previous life. He prefers to peel cocoons from the files, chew on those imperceptible details, and then draw conclusions.
I can't figure out this way for the time being, so let's change my mind and break through from other places. I will first rule out the disturbance by monsters, assuming that this is a well-planned, man-made incident.
Then he must have left a loophole in the case.
Local's law of material exchange tells us that whenever a crime is committed, it must leave direct or indirect traces on the scene.
All kinds of traces can be divided into two categories. I don't remember the details clearly. They should be hand and footprints, fingerprints, traces of vehicles and horses, traces of tools and equipment, etc.
The flaw is not in the two most conspicuous clues, but in these various traces
According to the description in the dossier, Xu Qi'an replayed the process of his second uncle escorting the tax money in his mind.
Adrenaline is secreted frantically, and brain cells are highly active. If pheromones could be simulated, they would be like koi in a pond, fighting frantically for food and boiling the water.
Repeatedly replaying, deliberating over and over again,
All kinds of information and clues on the dossier gathered together, and his brain was like a high-speed CPU.
As various pieces of information are pieced together, the case becomes clearer.
Unknowingly, Xu Qi'an felt that he had entered a certain state, his soul flew up lightly, broke through the mortal body, broke through the buildings, and came to the sky above the capital.
Time seems to be going backwards, the sun is twilight in the east, and the sun is about to rise. Xu Pingzhi leads a group of hard-wearing soldiers to escort the tax bank to the household department.
At this time, at the second quarter of Maoshi, when we were walking to Guangnan Street, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew, and the horses were frightened and rushed into the river.
boom!
The river exploded and the turbid waves emptied.
This explosion seemed to resound in Xu Qi'an's heart, and he kicked his legs reflexively to wake up.
There was exhaustion in his eyes, but his face was full of excitement and ecstasy.
I know, I know, hahaha, I solved the puzzle!!
Xu Qi'an laughed wildly, and beat the fence hard: Come, come, come, come quickly.
The jailer on duty was startled, and holding a fire stick, he cursed, It's too noisy, it's too late, right?
Hit the fence hard to scare Xu Qi'an.
Xu Qi'an took a step back, let go of the hand holding the fence, so as not to be knocked off his fingers, he said in a deep voice: I want to see the governor.
A prisoner, seeing the governor, he doesn't piss to take care of himself. The jailer laughed angrily, and stuck the fire stick into the fence to stab Xu Qi'an.
Xu Qi'an backed away again.
You still dare to hide? The jailer touched the key on his waist and said with a grin: I broke your leg today.
I have important clues to the robbery of the tax bank. I want to see the governor. If the case is delayed, you will be responsible. Xu Qi'an stared at him.
The jailer's face froze.
In the inner hall, the girl who finished eating the meat buns continued to nibble on sugar cane, and occasionally took out a few candied fruit from the deerskin bag to eat with it.
One side is gloomy, and the other is heartless.
Your Majesty ordered us to solve the case within five days. This is because the time has dragged on for too long, and the tax money may never be recovered. Chen Fuyin paced back and forth in the hall, he couldn't sit still:
But the time is so tight, I can't do anything. It takes time to solve the case.
Lord Fu Yin clapped his hands with a 'slap', and said in a deep voice, I will personally ask Duke Wei to give me the file.
Li Yuchun hesitated: I will go with you.
The girl in the yellow skirt glanced at him, and said sweetly: That's okay, with the help of our big country, you two won't be held accountable by His Majesty.
However, losing points in Wei Gong's heart is much more serious than being held accountable by His Majesty. She laughed, revealing two small white canine teeth.
The middle-aged man's face sank.
A yamen in soap clothes bowed his head, walked in quickly, bowed and said: Master Fu Yin, the jailer reported that Xu Pingzhi's nephew, Xu Qi'an, just said that he has important clues about the robbery of the tax bank. He wants to meet you.
The eyes of the three were fixed at the same time.
If Xu Qi'an remembers correctly, this is just a marginal figure that has nothing to do with the case. After the initial interrogation and torture, he was identified as an idler who had nothing to do with the case.
Chen Fuyin pondered for a while, and said: Bring him here.
In a short time, Xu Qi'an, who was wearing a prison uniform and covered in dried blood, was brought up by the yamen servants. As he walked, the handcuffs and fetters rattled.
PS: As an eighteen-year-old newcomer to the first book, I feel uneasy.
Today is gone, only three chapters.
This book is not a tragedy, everyone can eat it with peace of mind, don't worry. The introduction is mainly to highlight the character of the protagonist.
