Confused Escort Confused Account

Zhao Shitu looked at the person in front of him, and thought, this person is Yan Wuhua.

He had read the letter in the hands of Steward Jia, and the handwriting on the letter was handsome and modest, which really matched the letter writer himself.

Yan Wuhua was wearing a blue gown, with a thin body, a clean face, and long hair combed back.It is worth noting that this person has high cheekbones and deeper brow grooves than ordinary people, which seems to be of exotic blood.

He also cupped his hands in return and said: "It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Zhao Shitu, entrusted by the Yuan Mansion to protect Mr. Yan from entering the customs." After finishing speaking, he took out the token of the Yuan Mansion from his sleeve, raised his hand, and showed it to Yan Wuhua. It is also to show the other people in the house, to show their identity clearly.

When Brother Li saw it, he really lowered the knife in his hand: "This... this, it seems that we have misunderstood."

Yan Wuhua hastily said: "It's my fault, I didn't expect that you all arrived earlier than Manager Yuan's carrier pigeon, and I couldn't greet you in time. I hope that the escort Zhao Haihan."

Zhao Shitu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just solve the misunderstanding."

Luo Huan looked at Yan Wuhua, then at the three people in the escort agency, finally snorted, turned his head away and stopped talking.

Yan Wuhua came to Shangguanqing again, and said politely: "Xiaohuan is my friend, she helps me in the clinic, please allow me to return this knife, and accompany him by the way."

Shangguan Qing looked at him in surprise, the saber thrown out of the house by Luo Huan was in his hand.

Yan Wuhua held the handle and front edge of the knife with both hands, and moved cautiously. Judging from the way he held the knife, he really didn't know martial arts. His fingers were slender, and he couldn't see the calluses that martial arts practitioners often have, but was full of it. Light herbal smell.

Shangguanqing took the saber from his hand, put the saber into the sheath neatly, and shook his head, "It's okay."

Luo Huan murmured to the side: "Hmph, it's not Mr. Yan's fault, why do you have to apologize to this kind of person."

Yan Wuhua smiled apologetically, and said: "The tavern is in such a mess, I'm afraid it will take a while for the shopkeeper to clean it up, if you don't mind, why don't you go to my infirmary to have a rest first?"

Zhao Shitu had also made up his mind and asked earnestly, "Brother Yan, can you take us to see the deceased?"

Yan Wuhua showed surprise: "I think the misunderstanding here has been clarified, and Brother Li will not blame everyone."

Zhao Shitu said: "I know this, but we came here to protect Mr. Yan to return to the customs smoothly. If this murder case is not investigated, I'm afraid the road ahead will be in danger again."

Yan Wuhua hesitated for a moment, then looked at Big Brother Li, seeing the latter nodding to him, she made up her mind and said, "That's fine, the three follow me."

The body lay in an old woodshed on the edge of town.

The firewood house has been unoccupied all year round. It was originally full of sundries and was old and messy. At this time, there is a circle of dried flowers and wormwood outside the house.

Of course, these flowers and plants are not for viewing, but to cover up the smell in the room.

Even so, when Zhao Shitu walked ten steps away, he still smelled a strange smell from the corpse.When he walked in, the smell had already leaked out completely, and there was a stench mixed with the blood, which made him slow down instinctively.

At that time, the sky was already dark, and the people gathered in the tavern had dispersed, only Brother Li and Luo Huan were left to follow the Escort, their faces were very solemn.

Because of the foul-smelling corpse lying in the room, it is likely that they drank with them yesterday, talking and laughing.It would be difficult for anyone to laugh in this situation.

Yan Wuhua also frowned, and explained: "The murderer is nowhere to be found. I am afraid that there may be clues left on the body, so I dare not enter the coffin until I do a thorough investigation. There are still seriously injured patients in the hospital. If you can't get away, you can only wrong the three brothers."

Zhao Shitu asked: "They were killed last night?"

Yan Wuhua nodded: "To be precise, people in the town discovered the body early in the morning."

Zhao Shitu asked again: "Where did you find it?"

Yan Wuhua said: "It's near my clinic. I'm ashamed to say that this disaster is all because of me."

Luo Huan, who was standing beside him, immediately said, "Mr. Yan, don't say that."

Yan Wuhua shook her head and said: "But the fact is that, these days, there have been thieves sneaking in and out of the town from time to time, peeping at the treasure in my hand. After Brother Li and the others knew about the situation, they took turns patrolling around the humble house to watch the night. Alas, if If it wasn't for me, how could they be murdered like this."

Brother Li, who had been silent from the sidelines, also said: "Mr. Yan, you are a living Bodhisattva who saves lives and heals the wounded. How many of our brothers have received your favor, and it is our duty to protect your safety..."

Luo Huan followed suit and said, "You are the only doctor in a radius of a hundred miles. If you leave from now on..."

Yan Wuhua shook her head and interrupted him: "Since I have caused trouble, for everyone's safety, I shouldn't stay here for a long time."

Hearing these words, Zhao Shitu couldn't help but look Mr. Yan from head to toe again. He saw that although the man's clothes were clean, they were very old, and his elbows and cuffs were worn and faded. His face is full of wind and frost, and he must have been exposed to the wind and sun all year round.This stone town is adjacent to the desert and the land of barbarians. It has been harassed by wars all the year round. The hardships of life are hard for others to imagine.

Thinking of this, his temper, which is not afraid of being soft but not hard, surged up again, he only felt sore and bitter in his heart, which was not a good taste anyway, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, don't panic, the most important thing right now is to catch the murderer."

Yan Wuhua turned her head, stared at him for a while, then suddenly bowed and saluted: "Barrier Zhao is indeed chivalrous, and Yan also thinks the same way, but it's a pity that I can't compare with you, so I feel sad and indignant, but I can't understand it." A little bit of martial arts, not only can't help, but also hurt others, if Zhao Biaotou didn't come forward, I really don't know what to do."

His words were sincere, and the gratitude in his eyes made Zhao Shitu feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly helped him up: "Brother Yan is serious." After speaking, he turned his eyes away and looked down at the corpse by the wall.

The bodies of the three deceased were placed side by side, covered with coarse cloth, which was also stained with blood.Yan Wuhua knelt down and said in a low voice: "I've offended you." Carefully lifted the coarse cloth.

The corpse under the coarse cloth was decapitated, the severed head had a hideous appearance, its eyes were round, and the incision on the neck was covered with thick blood, which had solidified into a lump. appalling.

This scene is really too miserable.

Luo Huan stood aside, clenched his fists loudly.Yan Wuhua turned to him, and said softly: "Xiao Huan, you should go back to the clinic first."

Luo Huan insisted, "No, I want to catch the murderer too!"

Zhao Shitu also turned to Mingyuezhu and said, "Azhu, do you want to go out and wait..."

Ming Yuezhu shook her head and said, "What do you think I am, of course I want to stay."

Everyone was silent for a while, Yan Wuhua sighed: "Then let's go together." He pulled down the coarse cloth covering the corpse, and then said in surprise: "In addition to beheading, there are also messy knives left on their bodies. cut wound."

Brother Li nodded and said, "Yes, that was the case when we found the remains."

Ming Yuezhu whispered from the side: "What a cruel murderer."

Zhao Shitu also squatted down to look, the skirts of the three people had been soaked in blood and blurred. Looking carefully, there were indeed many stab wounds under the skirts, some were long or short, and the opened flesh was rotten, very hideous.

He suppressed his emotions and carefully inspected those wounds. He felt a little dissonance in his mind all the time, so he raised his head and said, "Did you hear the sound of fighting last night?"

Brother Li was also taken aback, shook his head and said, "That's not true, we only discovered them after dawn."

Ming Yuezhu murmured from the side: "If there hadn't been a fight, how could there be so many stab wounds?"

Zhao Shitu nodded and said, "That's exactly my doubt," he asked again, "Brother Li, besides the knife wound, did you find anything unusual?"

Brother Li said slowly: "Other than that, it's just the black blood from the wound..."

Zhao Shitu leaned over to look again, and sure enough, there were still purple-black bloodstains on those hideous knife wounds and incisions, distributed in spots, darker than the surrounding colors, not like dripping from corpses, It looks like it was thrown from the outside.

Luo Huan suddenly came in front of Shangguanqing, and grabbed his lapel: "Now you have seen it too! If you know something, you'd better tell it!"
