not possible

Looking around and looking up and down, Han Lingzi noticed that there was a line next to the side wall. When he walked over, he saw that there was a cross section from top to bottom. This wall was actually staggered from the other floor. One is in the front and the other is behind, and there are friction marks on the ground at the junction.

Is it a sliding door?

……

Li Yixing pushed the door to the left little by little, while Han Lingzi twisted the burning yellow paper with one hand, and slowly touched the talisman in the sleeve with the other.

The door was pushed open, and there was also a room inside, but there was actually a big iron cage inside, occupying half of the room.But there was a person in the cage, his hands and feet were tied, and he was lying on the ground weakly.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the man slowly raised his head to look.

"Master Du!"

At the beginning, it was just speculation, but when these things actually became facts, although it was a bit unbelievable, he did put them there truthfully.

When shopkeeper Du saw Li Yixing and the others, he was a little confused.Li Yixing untied him, and he shrank back, saying incessantly, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

His messy hair hung down to block his sight, and he was trembling all over. He didn't dare to raise his head, and kept staring at the ground.

"Treasurer Du is us, us." Li Yixing supported his shoulders and brushed away the messy hair in front of his eyes.

Li Yixing: "Shopkeeper Du, you can clearly see that it's me." He raised his eyes a little and then froze.His lips trembled, as if he was about to laugh and cry out of excitement, he said, "You...you."

"What's the matter?"

Shopkeeper Du stammered, "Wei...Wei...Wei county magistrate...killed him."

Li Yixing froze, Han Lingzi stared at him intently.

Li Yixing: "Shopkeeper Du, you...don't bully me (scare me)."

"I saw him kill them."

Li Yixing immediately thought of the blood stains outside...

"Get out first, then we'll talk." Han Lingzi said.Li Yixing also felt that by taking people out now, he was saying that this place is a bit infiltrated and not safe.Li Yixing slowly helped shopkeeper Du up: "Can I go now?"

"Yes... yes." Shopkeeper Du held Li Yixing's hand tightly.

However, at this moment, the sound of opening the door was heard in the distance, and it came down from the stairs.Li Yixing stopped his movements and listened carefully to the sound of someone coming downstairs.

Han Lingzi saw that Li Yixing and shopkeeper Du had stopped in place, motionless, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Yixing suddenly remembered that Han Lingzi couldn't hear the small voice, so he turned around and said, "Someone is here." Shopkeeper Du whimpered, and said with fear on his face, "He's here, he's here."

Han Lingzi and Li Yixing looked at each other, what should they do now?

Li Yi walked out of the cage and went to close the door.He tried to be careful not to make too much noise.Han Lingzi also extinguished the burning talisman in his hand, and the room was instantly darkened.

Everyone held their breath, listening to the footsteps getting closer.

……………………Dividing line………………

When Wei Zhengyang got up at night, he carried the candle lamp. He didn't know what was strange. He ran to look at the house, and found that the door lock was unlocked.

This... won't...

He gradually became suspicious, remembering that he hadn't handled the matter of the corpse well in the past few days, and it was almost exposed.

He opened the door to look inside, but there was no one there.But when he was about to close the door, the more he thought about it, the more wrong he became.How the door lock is opened, it cannot be for no reason.Wei Zhengyang squinted at the bookshelf behind him, his brows furrowed a little.

Wei Zhengyang turned the blue light, and the hidden door opened.I went down the stairs and looked left and right, thinking that I must be overthinking.

He lit up the lamps and candles on the wall in the room, and the whole room was brightly lit.He looked at the meat he had prepared for tomorrow on the table again and smiled slantingly.

I'm hungry now, why don't I eat now?

Thinking of himself, he walked to the table and sat on the chair, put the lighting lantern on his feet, and then picked up the bowls and chopsticks on the table, sandwiched a few slices of raw meat on the plate with great interest, and calmly eat up.

The shadows of the lights cast on his face, and he was obsessed with it.

After eating, he put down the bowl and chopsticks and got up, turned around and opened the box behind him on the left side, took out a rag inside, wiped the corner of his mouth vigorously, and threw it back.

He breathed a long sigh of satisfaction physically and mentally, and it was time to go back after eating.

But when he was about to turn off the lights on the wall and leave, he thought that there was still one person locked inside and he should go and see.

……

The door was pushed open little by little, and the candlelight shone in, forming a dark gap.There was only one person inside, and that person was curled up lifeless on the ground.

I went in suspiciously and saw no one around, so the question is how could the lock be open?

Wei Zhengyang walked over and looked inside through the rusty cage, he just looked at it coldly without saying a word.

Shopkeeper Du was still whispering: "Don't kill me, don't kill me." Wei Zhengyang was indifferent.

It's too late, and I have to work tomorrow.Wei Zhengyang cleared away the dishes and chopsticks on the table, extinguished the surrounding lights, and then picked up the lantern at the foot of the table, it was time to go back.

But Wei Zhengyang heard the secret door upstairs.

……

Li Yixing and Han Lingzi walked out taking advantage of the moment the door opened just now.Go up the stairs at the corner, open the secret door and go back into the house.

I had been holding my breath just now, and went upstairs without daring to catch my breath.Li Yixing touched his back, but he didn't know what Han Lingzi had stuck to his back just now, but Wei Zhengyang couldn't see them, they seemed invisible.

Han Lingzi looked outside the door, the sunrise would be in a few hours.Now that the murderer has been identified, how can the truth be revealed to the public?

Li Yixing: "The opportunity is rare now, he is inside, we cannot let him escape."

However, at this time, the hidden door slowly opened from the inside.

Li Yixing looked at the bookshelf in a panic.He suddenly thought of something, turned around and said urgently to Han Lingzi: "Hurry up and get a piece of paper."

"what?"

"It's you who lit the light just now, hurry up!"

Han Lingzi quickly took out the talisman from his sleeve, urged by the spiritual energy, and the fire gradually lit up.Li Yixing snatched the burning talisman from Han Lingzi's hand, and threw it at the room full of scrolls.

Wei Zhengyang met Li Yixing and Han Lingzi head-on, his pupils dilated and his eyes were bloodshot, his hand tightly clutching the candle lamp handle, he cursed angrily, "Why are you here!"

The fire met the paper and burned, with billowing thick smoke gradually rushing towards the door.

The beater beat the drum in a hurry, and someone in front of the yamen shouted anxiously: "Let's go!"

The flames flared up and intensified.

"The backyard is flooded! Hurry up!"

"It's where the magistrate lives."

"Quick! Quick!"

"What! The county magistrate has gone off fire!"

……

anger?Panic?

This fire attracted everyone, should he wake up and blame himself?

Won't……
