Daming's Bizarre Story: Painted Skin

Jiuru nodded: "Not bad."

The county magistrate browsed through everything in the package, but he still didn't know what he was referring to.

Zhao Ran was happy that Jiu Ru had a tacit understanding with him: "If Nanny Song really escapes, it is impossible for her not to take such things with her."

"What exactly is it?" The county magistrate asked too many reasons all the way, and he didn't want to ask any more, but he had a good understanding between the master and the apprentice, so he just tried to play dumb, but didn't give the answer, so he had to bite the bullet and ask again.

"Embroidered shoes!" Zhao Ran spread his hands in amazement.

Only then did the magistrate suddenly realize: "That's right, since Mrs. Song didn't hand over the embroidered shoes to Yinniang, then when she ran away, she couldn't have brought such a treasure that she could bargain with the Meng family with her."

The yamen servants said in unison: "Your Excellency is wise!"

They weren't just flattering, if it wasn't for the county magistrate's explanation, they wouldn't have understood what the little sage was talking about between the teacher and the student.

"The murderer is from the Meng family!" The county magistrate recklessly said the deduced answer in a happy mood.

This time even Zhao Ran couldn't help flattering the magistrate: "Your Excellency is wise!"

The praise after the attack can easily make people feel a little bit smug. The county magistrate stayed up all night, a little swollen, and shouted after his brain became hot: "Pass me the warrant and let the Meng family go up and down the hall for questioning."

----

The yamen wanted to let people from the Meng Mansion pass through the hall, and rumors spread all over the city immediately, before the hall was opened, it was crowded with onlookers.

"Is it true that the county magistrate asked the people in the Meng Mansion to ask questions?"

"What kind of person is Chief Meng San? The county magistrate actually asked the family members of Chief Meng San's house to question him. How dare he is too bold!"

The county magistrate over there caught up his sleep, his gallbladder subsided, and he paced up and down in the backyard anxiously, asking the master, "What should I do? Why don't you just say that I'm sick, and we'll talk about this in court later."

The master glanced at him and said nothing, the magistrate said: "Master, what am I asking you?"

"My lord, you said that you have your own opinions on everything. Let me write more notes and less talk."

The magistrate said: "My lord allows you to speak now!"

The master said: "My lord, you want to be known as an upright official, but you don't want to be burdened by that upright official. You want to take the shortcut of a corrupt official, but you don't want to bear the name of a corrupt official."

This is a bit harsh to say, but the county magistrate felt that he had scratched an itch again: "So what?"

"My lord, you are not capable of being a slut."

"You should do more pen posts in the future."

However, the master went on to say in spite of the wind, "My lord, it is self-evident who the murderer is."

"Do you know who the murderer is?" The magistrate was curious after all.

"Think about it, my lord. The students of the little sage gave a total of several clues."

The county magistrate had a bad impression of the little skull, and snorted coldly: "It's a mess."

"No, he gave a total of four most important clues. First, the embroidered shoes belonged to Mrs. Meng's Baimei; Mammy's men took the embroidered shoes."

"Then..." the magistrate asked after thinking hard.

The master sighed: "Meng Tian was burned to death by Baimei, that's why Baimei was scared to death by the shopkeeper with a scorched face outside the window. The reason why Baimei burned Meng Tian to death was that they had an affair, and an embroidered shoe was left on the scene to burn." It was burnt, but the pearl was left behind, and the other intact shoe was stolen by Mrs. Song as a threat. Since Mrs. Meng was going to ask Yinniang for an embroidered shoe, why did she kill Yinniang before the shoe arrived? That's because Yinniang may have discovered something more serious than her adultery, so that Mrs. Meng strangled Yinniang to death in a fright. The reason is that Mrs. Meng's children were not born to Meng Sanchang Son. To sum it up, the person who exchanged killings with shopkeeper Lu, and finally killed Nanny Song and took away the embroidered shoes must be Mr. Meng or Ms. Meng, one of the two."

The county magistrate suddenly felt that the sky had fallen.

The master said: "The only thing I don't understand is, what method can the little boy use to prove the murderer... Sigh."

----

Zhaoran went out of the book city and met the girl with a bun who used to be with Shen Fangji on the side of the road, wondering if this is intolerant!

Seeing Wu Rong passing by, he couldn't help shouting: "Rong Rong!"

Wu Rong turned his head around, with a look of surprise on his face: "How do you know my name is Rong Rong?"

It really is Mrs. Li...

Zhaoran felt a little emotional in his heart. Looking at the ruthless eyes, he coughed, rolled his eyes and said, "I'm your brother Axian's classmate and friend."

Wu Rong immediately called out in a sweet voice: "Brother."

Zhao Ran pointed to the package in Wu Rong's hand and asked, "What is that in your hand?"

Wu Rong shook his head and said innocently: "Grandpa asked me to buy something for brother Axian to celebrate!"

"Celebration, what are you celebrating?" Zhao Ran asked immediately, he hadn't forgotten the reason why he went back 20 years ago.

"In the past, the Buddha said that Brother Axian would solve the mystery that there is no winter in Bailu City."

"This is Baoding Mansion, right? There should be four distinct seasons. How can there be no winter?" Zhao Ran said.

Wurong pointed to the sky and said, "Egret Book City has neither winter nor summer, it is always in autumn...but there are cherry blossoms floating around, so Bailu Book City is also called the city of disorder."

"Isn't there no winter in the book city because of my husband, the little sage?" Zhao Ran came from the time when Jiu Rurong was a disciple of the Buddha, so it was effortless to boast.

Wu Rong shook Bao Baotou: "No, first there was the book city, and then there was the little sage. Even the little sage said that the disorder of the book city had nothing to do with him. To solve the mystery of the book city, this was originally the little sage's question." .”

And so on!Zhao Ran's complexion was a little bit bad. He actually missed such important information. If he really solved the mystery of the book city for Shen Fangji, wouldn't that make Shen Fangji gain Jiu Ru's favor? Staring at Shen Fangji's corpse beside the coffin, his heart seemed to be filled with seven or eight mice, scratching in panic.

In fact, he can also cheat, that is, use the token to go back ten years later to find out what happened to Bailu Book City.

But firstly, as long as the two tokens are closed, Shen Fangji will be very attractive to him, and secondly, even if he returns ten years later, he will still be trapped behind the Buddha in the past. Shen Fangji's corpse in front of him had to find a way to escape Fu Shi's eyes before he could get out of Luozi Peak.

The most important thing is that he admits that he is not as good as Shen Fangji.

This is absolutely intolerable to him!

"Has your brother Axian ever told you where he solved the mystery of the Book City?" Zhao Ran asked Xiao Wurong.

Wu Rong thought for a while and said, "Brother didn't say it, but brother A Xian has always said it well. Grandpa said that as long as brother A Xian solves the mystery of the book city, maybe he can solve many unsolved mysteries."

It is obvious that Wurong made Shen Fangji look like the savior of the world, but in fact Shen Fangji did nothing, otherwise Wurong would not die from the Brahma 20 years later.

She checked the things in her hand and said, "Oh, I'm going to buy brother A Xian his favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake." After she finished speaking, she shook her little hand, "Goodbye, brother." Without waiting for Zhao Ran's reaction When he came over, he hurried away with the package in his arms.

Looking at her background, Zhao Ran couldn't help thinking, what is the mystery of disorder in the book city?

Since this question was answered by Jiuru, he must have a clue. Thinking that he was already behind Shen Fangji, he obviously didn't wait for a moment, and went back to the academy.

----

As soon as he stepped into the academy, he saw Shen Fangji, dressed in white, standing under the eaves talking to Jiuru. He was a handsome young man with outstanding talent and appearance, gentle and courteous disposition, no wonder he was liked by everyone in the academy after a while.

Shen Fangji said: "The student understands, but he is only worried that Zhao Xian is young and has an impulsive temperament. Since the husband has already made a decision, the student will leave the teacher."

Zhao Ran's forehead twitched, and he really couldn't be careless, as soon as he was away, Shen Fangji would come to Jiuru to belittle himself.

Jiu Rudao: "Zhaoxian may be a little naive, but only in this way, the heart of a child is precious. Although you have everything, Ah Xian, it's a pity that you lack this heart of a child."

Zhaoran was a little disappointed when he heard Jiuru comment on his childishness before, but he was overjoyed when he heard it later. His heart flew from the ground to the sky, as if leaping into the sky. He appeared from behind the hidden door and said: "I know how to advance and retreat, no Please remind me!"

Shen Fangji was criticized by Jiuru face to face, but there was no gloomy look on his face, he just bowed down and said humbly: "Student made a note." Then he got up and left without arguing with Zhaoran.

"Sir, he didn't remember anything!" Zhao Ran didn't forget to step on Shen Fangji's foot, Jiu Ru sighed and raised his hand to flick his forehead lightly.

Zhao Ran hugged Jiu Ru in the arms, and said brazenly: "Sir, I am still young, when I grow up, I will naturally mature."

He didn't know that he was an old ghost who had been around a few times, and he was a little shy to say it, but Jiu Ru raised his hand and slowly placed it on top of his head, and said, "That's good."

There was silence in the room for a while, Zhao Ran once felt that life was like duckweed, falling in the lake of time, drifting from east to west without a fixed trace, but at this moment, he knew that he was wrong, life is not duckweed, but a The finely crushed dust floats along the lake of time, but it will eventually stay at the bottom of the lake.

Everything I have loved, hated, and experienced is at the bottom of the lake, not an inch less.

Although he couldn't remember them, he could feel them.

----

The Meng Mansion is known as a scholarly disciple, so naturally he would not fail to be summoned by his parents and officials.

But when Jiuru led Zhaoran back to the yamen, they were a little speechless when people from the Meng residence came and the magistrate ran away.

"Sir." Meng Chengtian bent down, "Do you still have to ask about this case?"

Jiu Ru pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Pull the county magistrate's grand teacher's seat outside the door. Although the parents and magistrates are not here, the sky is still there."

The surrounding townspeople applauded and applauded, but they were sparse. Turning around, he saw more people standing silently watching. He couldn't help but think that the people in this book city are really extraordinary, and it's fun to watch the excitement. So deep.

Jiu Ru sat on the grand teacher's chair and put the county magistrate's seal aside: "I am trying the case of Yinniang, Mrs. Meng's Baimei case, the case of Song's mother-in-law of the Meng family, and the case of the shopkeeper Lu of the bookstore. Four murder cases. "

It was the first time that many people heard that the shopkeeper of the bookstore was also inside, and there were whispers from below.
