Mr. Liu didn't really see the "miracle" because he was so frightened that he ran out of Yizhuang in a panic.

Vomited.

Speaking of which, the yizhuang of the yamen is the place where the coffins of the people involved in the case are kept. Generally, only Wuzuo will come, even if the children around him will never come to the yizhuang to play.This also led to the lack of popularity of the yizhuang under normal circumstances, and the yizhuang in Jianchang County, because of the knowledge Xu Yu learned from Dali Temple, often placed ice cubes in the yizhuang, making it even more eerie.

What's more, now that this case also involves a female ghost, the invisible Yizhuang makes people feel even more creepy.Mr. Liu came in bravely, but now he saw with his own eyes that Du Miaomiao of Pang Taishi's family, who looked handsome and handsome in Dali, cut open Yang Wenchang's chest with a sharp knife... That scene was too shocking It's good that Master Liu didn't scare himself to urinate on the spot, but he would run outside to vomit, but Pang Xie reminded him without any surprise: "Go outside and vomit!"

Master Liu was restrained like this, so he forced himself to come outside Yizhuang.

"vomit--"

"vomit--"

The latter sound was not made by Master Liu, but by Xu Yu, whose legs were bent and hair fluttering after a while.

After all, Master Xu's psychological quality is better than Master Liu's. After he vomited, he was very annoyed: "It's because I have been too comfortable recently, and I can't stand it after only a moment. I used to stay with you for half an hour. Spit record."

Master Liu: "..."

Master Liu was not slowed down, and secondly, he was completely speechless to Xu Yu's words. He wanted to know what kind of Dali Temple was like. Did they often slaughter their people like slaughtering livestock? dead body?It is to take a knife and cut two knives on the chest, and then use a hook to spread the skin...

"vomit--"

Master Liu vomited again.

Seeing this, Xu Wei calmed down with the tone of a person who came here: "I see Master Liu, you eat a lot of greasy food recently, and you can eat vegetarian food to take care of it."

Master Liu: "...My lord, is this based on experience?"

Xu Wei also nodded and said: "Yes, not only me, but also the officials who have been employed in Dali Temple in recent years. I think that those who are still staying in Dali Temple are already used to it, but the original Dali Temple Minister Mr. Qian, he is old and can't adapt to anything, so he had to ask for an official post in the end."

There was still a bit of nostalgia in his tone, which made Master Liu not understand them Dali Temple very well, but, "Didn't Master Qian give up his position voluntarily because of Grand Master Pang's power?"

Xu Wei retorted: "How could it be? Didn't Mr. Qian be transferred to the Ministry of Rites later to become the servant of the Ministry of Rites? When he was appointed as an official, Mr. Qian was so happy that he almost set off firecrackers to celebrate."

Master Liu's mouth twitched, but then he thought that if he stayed in Dali Temple and often saw the situation inside, then he would not want to stay any longer.

In Yizhuang, Pang Xie stuck to his post with his usual face, but he was quite strange, his young master hadn't personally dissected a corpse for a long time.Thinking about it again, this case is indeed very bizarre, and it is understandable that his young master would do it so personally. Thinking of this, Pang Xie asked curiously: "Master, in your opinion, is this made by a human or a female ghost?"

Gu Qing's expression couldn't be called very interesting, he heard the words with two purposes: "You might as well guess first."

Pang Xie said with a serious face: "Master, you say that, so I feel that the case must not be that simple."

He thought for a long time before expressing his conjecture: "The little guy thinks it was the peddler and Qi Erniang, this person and a female ghost did it - the peddler likes Qi Erniang, but the Yang family doesn't allow this kind of corruption. The matter of their clan's reputation also determined that Erniang Qi was not a woman, and forced her to commit suicide. After this was known to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper decided to take revenge on Erniang Qi. At the same time, Erniang Qi died because of unjust He turned into a fierce ghost, and cooperated with the shopkeeper to kill the patriarch of the Yang clan, Qi Erniang's mother-in-law Yang Zhang, and that glib, instigating mother-in-law Li to avenge his revenge."

"Master, what do you think of my speculation?"

"Well—" Gu Qing uttered a meaningless monosyllable, "Very good."

Pang Xie couldn't hide his excitement: "Really?"

"Of course it is true," Gu Qing said while nodding, "You managed to avoid all possible suspects, isn't it good enough?"

Pang Xie: "...Master!"

Gu Qing didn't really need to dissect the victim's body. He just wanted to open the eyes of others, so now he has extra thoughts to explain to Pang Xie: "Let's not talk about whether there are ghosts and gods in this world. I have sent someone to look for the peddler, so I know that the peddler is not in Jianchang County now."

"It's also possible that he hid?" Pang Xie suddenly thought of something, and said excitedly: "Master, do you think it is possible that the Yang family also arrested the shopkeeper and gave it to Shen Tang? So they both Turned into a ghost?"

Gu Qing shrugged slightly: "You mean the devil who would feed Yang Wenchang sex-enhancing drugs before scaring him into the wind?"

Pang Xie didn't think of such a thing at all: "Huh?"

"The body is swollen, the muscles and bones are atrophied, the beard and hair are easy to fall off, and the complexion is dark. Our Yang Lizheng is not good at bed affairs, at least it has been a year." What Gu Qing meant was that he had pulled out Yang Wenchang's beard and hair just now. The parents of Fafushou, considering that Yang Wenchang has been dissected and dissected, the uprooted hair and beard are nothing.

perhaps.

"You mean he's dead? It's because he looks like he's over sixty years old, and it's normal that he can't do that anymore." Pang Xie was glanced at by his young master, and he quickly calmed down, "Master, what do you say?" Was he fed sex-enhancing drugs? Could it be that someone disguised his death as being frightened by a female ghost? If that's the case, his second wife is very suspicious. Could it be that she has an adulterer? She and her adulterer want to fish in troubled waters, just like the thief monk we met in Changzhou last time, didn't he just commit the crime after knowing that there was a flower picker in Changzhou mansion, and let Changzhou mansion People thought it was a particularly rampant flower picker."

In the case of the flower-picking thieves I encountered in Changzhou, He Fangzhai's buddy secretly fell in love with the first victim, because her engagement was greatly stimulated, so he attacked the newly-engaged girl's house, it can be said that he was impulsive driven by.But escaped from the mandarin arrows of the Nine Schools of the Lion Tiger Camp, and scalded his scars severely. Knowing that he became a monk and concealed his enlightened monk is different. He not only wants to satisfy his animal desires, but also wants to push all crimes to his "peers".

It seems reasonable to think so, but Pang Xie still has a lot of doubts, first of all: "If this is the case, who is responsible for the deaths of Mrs. Yang Zhang and Mrs. Li?"

At this time, Gu Qing was putting back the stomach that had just been removed to Yang Wenchang, and said after hearing this: "Before there are no more clues, the possibility that this is not done by a group of people cannot be ruled out."

Pang Xie asked in astonishment, "A group of people?"

"Grandma Li's tongue was pulled out together with the root of her tongue. From the traces left on her head, it can be seen that there were two people. One of them was as steady as a rock. He was responsible for fixing Granny Li's upper and lower jaws, and he was very strong. So much so that when Granny Li was struggling, she broke the corner of her mandible; the other was responsible for clamping the tongue with iron pliers and pulling it out. Judging from the wound on the root of the tongue, this person was hesitant at first, and only started after the third stroke. Determined."

Before Gu Qing dissected Yang Wenchang's body, he had already "looked" at the bodies of the three victims. At this time, he did not look at Li Po's body and told her about her.After he finished speaking, he paused and said again: "Tongue pulling hell."

Pang Xie glanced at Granny Li's body, and didn't take a second look. Instead, he turned to look at his young master. He happened to see his young master "threading the needle" on Yang Wenchang's chest, so he could only bow his head. Looking at the uppers of his shoes, he took a while to find his own train of thought: "Didn't the magistrate Xu say that Po Li loves to tell tales, and she was the first to break up the affair between Erniang Qi and the shopkeeper, like this Love to sow discord, and those who have committed the crime of talking and talking will go to hell after death."

"Tongue Pulling Hell is to pull out the tongue from the root. The name of the punishment is oral punishment. The most cruel thing is to cut off the tongue. Usually, you just use scissors to cut off half of the tongue..." Gu Qing stopped as he spoke, not knowing. I thought of something.

Pang Xie closed his mouth in embarrassment. He is bolder than County Magistrate Xu and Mr. Liu, but it doesn't mean he can be as calm and composed as his young master, especially when he just saw Granny Li empty-handed. mouth!

Hmm... I can save a bowl of rice for dinner today.

As for Xu Yu and Master Liu who had their eyes opened, they haven't come back since they went out.

Mr. Liu, who had seen this kind of thing for the first time, had nothing to vomit now. He looked up at Xu Yu: "My lord, why didn't you go back?"

Xu Wei cleared his throat and said: "I couldn't help Pang Daren much in the past, so I won't go there to make trouble."

Mr. Liu didn't think about other aspects for a while, he was still wishing that Xu Ling wouldn't go in.After all, Xu Wei is his immediate boss, and all his immediate bosses went in to take the lead, while his own assistants were outside. This is shameful, isn't it?

Although the huge person inside now is the third rank, he is not his immediate superior.

Thinking of this, Master Liu looked back at Yizhuang. Although he couldn't see what was going on inside from the outside, just looking at the open door of Yizhuang, he felt a bloody smell coming from inside. come out.

Master Liu hurriedly turned his head, and couldn't help asking curiously: "My lord, has Little Pangda always been like this?"

Xu Wei: "??"

"The humble job means that the little one digs someone's grave and gives it back to him," Master Liu made a "slicing" movement, "Although this is for solving the case, it is disrespectful to the deceased—"

Master Liu didn't mention the rest, but the meaning is very clear: doing so will hurt the yin.

Just as Xu Wei was about to say, "Your Excellency doesn't care," Pang Xie's voice came from the Yizhuang: "Master Xu, you can come in."

Xu Wei swallowed the words back, stood up and straightened his black gauze hat, and walked into Yizhuang with dignity.At this time, Yang Wenchang's body was already the same as when they came in. If you didn't take off his shroud, you wouldn't be able to see that he had been dissected, and this situation is much more acceptable.

After taking a glance, Xu Yu turned his eyes away, and cupped his hands towards Gu Qing who was taking off his gloves: "My lord?"

Gu Qing replied casually: "It's a human being."

Gu Qing already had a guess in his heart and needed further confirmation, so he did not explain further to Xu Wei, but said: "Take me to Luohe Town."

Xu Yu was also used to it, and immediately said without saying a word: "Yes."

The group of them went from Yizhuang to Luohe Town non-stop. Luohe Town is only twenty miles away from Jianchang County, and it takes less than half an hour to ride a horse.When they arrived at Luohe Town, the sun had already set in the west, and the sunset glow filled half of the sky.

Still burning clouds.

The red clouds caused panic among the townspeople who saw them:

"Has the master not arrived yet?"

"Obviously it was the Yang family who committed the crime, why should the entire Luohe town be implicated?"

"Could it be that Qi Erniang's resentment hasn't been resolved yet?"

"I, I seemed to have said something bad about her at the time - I blamed that Li Po who killed a thousand swords, if she hadn't told the story clearly and clearly, and swore that she saw it with her own eyes, how could I believe her? "

"Then Li Po has such a bad mouth, can you still believe it?"

"Where's the master? Hurry up and rescue Qi Erniang!"

"..."

It can be seen that the theory of "female ghost killing people" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of Luohe Town, and they are still very sure that the deaths of Yang Zhangshi, Yang Wenchang and Li Po were all caused by Qi Erniang turning into an evil ghost.

The arrival of Gu Qing and his group failed to attract much attention from the townspeople of Luohe Town. They seemed to have invited the master of the practice, and now they are waiting for the master to come to Luohe Town to perform the deed, so that they can feel at ease.In this way, Gu Qing and the others can be said to have arrived at Yang Zhang's house unimpeded.

Because Yang Zhang's family is dead, although the body is still in the yizhuang of the Jianchang County Yamen, the manuscripts have been hung up at home, and a mourning hall has been set up.It's just because Qi Erniang turned into a ghost to beg for her life, let alone the entire Yang family, only Yang Zhang's maid Cui Er and Yang Zhang's nephew Yang Yong are there.

This Cui'er was the first to find out about Yang Zhang's accident. As for Yang Yong, he is the son of Yang Zhang's husband and brother. Because Yang Zhang has no heir, the Yang family found another heir for Yang Zhang. Deal with funeral affairs.But Yang Zhangshi's death was dishonorable and frightening, and it finally fell on Yang Yong, who didn't like Yang Zhangshi very much in the past.

But Yang Yong didn't hesitate, everything in the mourning hall was complete, and when Gu Qing and the others came over, paper money was still burning in the brazier.

Yang Yong came out of the mourning hall wearing a filial piety. He glanced at the unfamiliar Gu Qing, turned his head and asked Xu Wei: "Master Xu, who is this?"

Xu Wei told Yang Yong about Gu Qing's background, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Qing raised his eyes slightly to look at Yang Yong.Yang Yong looks to be 25 or [-] years old, and his appearance is correct. At first glance, he looks loyal, but after Gu Qing saw Yang Yong from the beginning to the end, he saw from his hands that he had a gambling addiction. From the shape of his fingers, it can be seen that he has practiced boxing when he was young, and from his clothes or shoes and socks, it can be seen that he has three women.

One of them is his wife, the other two are not his concubines, one of them is actually from a wealthy family, and the two had made out this morning.

And it can be seen from his walking posture that he recently injured his left leg.

He didn't know that Yang Yong, who had been seen through [-]% of the time just after meeting him, could not help being surprised that this case was actually a high-ranking official from the capital who worked for him after hearing Xu Yu's introduction!After being surprised, Yang Yong knelt down and kowtowed to others. After being called up, he suppressed his thoughts and took them to the main house where Yang Zhangshi lived. Cui'er was also called over by the Yamen.

Gu Qing glanced at the silver bracelet on Cui Er's wrist and the stitches on her clothes, and compared it with the black linen boots worn by Yang Yong. It seemed that he knew the specific identity of one of Yang Yong's lovers.

Let’s not talk about whether Yang Yong ate the grass on the edge of the nest, but let’s just talk about the murder of Yang Zhang’s family. According to Xu Yu’s description, this case is a typical murder case in a secret room—the door and the window are all opened from the inside. It was tied, and there was no sign of being violently damaged. You Cui'er heard Yang Zhang's screams in the house, and the rest of the people she called over broke in. It only took half a moment at most.

So how did the murderer do it?

Gu Qing stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, looking left and right. It didn't seem like he was here to solve the case, but more like he was here to go shopping, and he was still very leisurely.

Xu Wei didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In his opinion, his family had his own unique way of solving crimes, which no one else could learn, and it's not like he hasn't seen anything worse than this before.He pondered and said: "My lord, why don't you ask Tweety to tell the story of that time again?"

Gu Qing casually replied with one word: "Yes."

Tweety looked quite nervous, she glanced at Yang Yong before she spoke, and Yang Yong gave her a calm look, and Tweety just settled down, and timidly talked about the situation at that time:

"It was Xu time at that time, the old lady had rested according to the usual time, and she didn't need the servant to serve her, so the servant went to the kitchen to find some food as usual..." Although Cui'er looked timid, she could talk about the situation at that time But he didn't stammer, probably because Xu Wei asked her before, and now he just needs to repeat what he said at the time.

Moreover, there is basically no difference between what Tweety said and what Xu Wei recounted, but Xu Wei's recitation was not so detailed.

During Tweety's statement, Gu Qing did not listen carefully like Xu Wei, but pushed open the temporarily sealed door, entered the room, walked around inside the room, making some noises from time to time.

Although Tweety outside could hear the sound, she couldn't see what he was doing inside, so that every time there was any movement inside, Tweety stumbled.

"...Yang Dalang, Li Sanlang and the others happened to be passing by outside, so I begged them to come over, and they broke down the door together—"

Tweety was about to continue, but was interrupted by Gu Qing: "Who are they all?"

Cui'er was startled, and after calming down, she replied: "There are Yang Lin Yang Dalang, Li Qi and Li Sanlang, Yang Cheng Yang Wulang, Yang Ming Yang Qilang, and those who are a few steps behind them—" Cui'er said Looking at Yang Yong, Yang Yong had a heartbroken face, and almost immediately said: "There is still a little one, but the little one is still a step late, auntie has already encountered an accident!"

"Is that so? Then you are sorry." Gu Qing said insincerely. He changed the subject and said to Xu Wei: "Although I have heard of the master's deeds when I was in Bianliang, I have never seen it with my own eyes. Why don't we go and have a look?"

Rao Xu Wei still hasn't been able to adapt to such a big jump: "My lord?"

Gu Qing didn't mean to explain, and urged: "Let's go and go."

They came and went and left in a hurry like this. After they left, Cui Er and Yang Yong looked at each other in blank dismay.

Cui'er couldn't help asking: "They left like this?"

Yang Yong lowered his voice and said: "I'm afraid I believe Erniang Qi turned into a ghost to kill people, so I dare not stay here any longer." Besides, the senior official from Bianliang City looks so young, and there is It doesn't look like the gesture of coming to solve the case at all, I'm afraid he has no real talent and learning at all, he's just here for show, tsk!

Gu Qing, who was considered by Yang Yong to be a vegetarian meal in the corpse, was now asking the bewildered Xu Wei: "Do you still remember how Tweety answered you when you asked Tweety?"

Xu Wei thought about it carefully: "Tui'er said the same thing at the time. She heard the screams and called for someone to come over."

He suddenly let out an "ah" and said impatiently: "What Cui'er said today is almost the same as what she said to the subordinate that day, even the witnesses who came to push the door, she also said it in this order. And my lord When she interrupted her statement like that, she said her name without thinking, although it was only ten days since Xiaguan asked her, but she remembered it too clearly."

Not only when it comes to the name, but also this kind of rhetoric, Tweety almost does not think about it, unless her memory is really so good, otherwise it means that this set of rhetoric has been thought of by her in advance, and she has been deliberating over and over again It's been done several times, so that now when someone asks again, she can say the same statement from the original.

"Tweety'er is very suspicious," Xu Wei said right away, "But my lord, the witnesses she mentioned, the officials also went to ask them that they were indeed stopped by Tweety'er, so they shouldn't be lying. How did the real prisoner kill Yang Zhang and escape in the sealed room?"

"He's been in the house from the beginning, but he just pretended to be in a mess and came from outside." Gu Qing didn't try to trick him, and turned his eyes and said: "You can ask the next watchman, Sun Erhu later, look How did he answer you, and among the people who chased that black shadow together at that time, is there also Yang Yong who was two steps late?"

Although Xu Wei still had doubts in his heart, seeing that the case was about to come to light, he made up his mind that even if he had doubts, he could wait until all the suspects were caught before answering them.

In this way, Xu Wei took the order and left.

Not only Xu Wei has not fully figured it out, even Pang Xie, who has been following him all the time, is now half-baffled: "Young Master, you haven't said who collaborated with the Su family to harm Yang Wenchang?"

Gu Qing blinked, and said innocently: "Didn't I say that?"

After racking his brains to make sure that his young master hadn't said anything, Pang Xie weakly protested: "No!"

Gu Qing nodded: "Well, I really didn't say that."

Pang Xie: "...Master!"

"I'm going to find him right away." Gu Qing said meaningfully, and at the same time raised his eyes to the roof not far away.
