God stick peeping the sky

Yue Jiu was also pondering carefully, he circled the big wine bottle that was already muddy a few times: "Master, water monkeys are quite common in folklore, and people who almost drowned often claimed that they were trapped in the water like water monkeys." The thing that looked like a child was pulled into the water, but everyone didn't believe it, thinking that the drowning person was frightened, and all the grass and trees blamed the ghosts and gods for the drowning; another reason was that no one had caught the water monkey for many years. , or have seen the corpse of a water monkey."

Xiaoyan got close to the transparent magnum, and met the dead water monkey through the glass bottle.The broken monkey has rotted into rags, but the surroundings are still shrouded in Yin and resentment: "It rotted too quickly. I guess I caught it in the morning, and it was rotten into a skeleton in the afternoon. I can't keep the evidence. How can I say it's all a lie?" "Xiao Jiu, you said it rotted so quickly, it's beyond the laws of nature."

Just as he was about to turn his head, he was suddenly shocked: "Xiao Jiu, the water monkey seemed to move its eyes just now!"

The water monkey may be too unwilling to die, and the ghosts are lingering around the corpse. Xiaoyan also knows that the newly dead corpse has the most things, so he doesn't want to stare at the water monkey here, so he turns around and jumps off the platform. Unaffected by the water monkey's eyes rolling: "Let's take a rest and go back to the yamen later."

Yue Jiu also thought so, stretching his arms and shaking his neck to relax his muscles that had been tensed all day: "Yes, the Imperial Forest Army has come, and I don't want to publicize this matter, and the case is simple. Being blown up as a fish by unreasonable people, a group of people came to wipe out."

Xiaoyan is young enough to be acting Dali Temple Minister, and even his father can't find fault with him, he has a side that is good at thinking.He seems careless in daily life, but in fact he is very careful when handling cases, otherwise he would not have a good reputation outside.

Now that Yue Jiu had finished speaking, he pinched his chin with one hand and thought carefully: "Xiao Jiu, I think there are rules in general things. If something happens suddenly, it may be accidental. However, several accidents all come together. It is extremely difficult. Look at yesterday's case. First, the navy suddenly trained diving in an inaccessible place. This is the first accident. Then the Imperial Forest Army intervened in the case. Monkey, the third chance at this time; I think something is wrong, there must be something inside that we don't know."

Yue Jiu squinted his eyes and began to think carefully: "Yes, young master, the two of us are naughty enough, but we don't dare to swim and play in the wild water easily, because we don't know anything about the undercurrents and sand pits at the bottom, and we are directly looking for death. They are all about the same. No matter how good the water skills are, it is impossible for a person to go directly into the water in the wild. The military’s daily training safety is the top priority, so why would they go directly into the water in Yanshui Lake?”

Xiaoyan looked up at the sky, shaking his feet relaxedly: "There is no evidence, who knows, the water monkey caught me, and they still want to catch the water monkey. I will ask a wounded soldier tomorrow to see if there is anything abnormal. .”

The two of them basically didn't sleep at night, and they didn't do anything else. They just took a bath. The smell of the corpse seemed to know the pores, and all the teeth and claws penetrated into the skin along the pores. Xiaoyan was not caught by the water monkey and drowned, but almost The body of the water monkey stinks to death, the clothes on his body can be discarded, but his own skin must be kept. Immediately, Yue Jiu and Yue Jiu covered their noses, went into the bathroom with mutual dislike, and began to use mugwort leaves crazily after entering the water , basil and bath salt rub each other, and the water is cold after washing, and I feel that I still smell bad.

Yue Jiu yelled: "Monkey boy, pour some more buckets of hot water in."

As soon as the monkey cub came in, his face turned green, and he wandered around the two gentlemen in the water suspiciously for countless times, and finally he couldn't help but ask Xiaoyan: "Master, did you and Xiaojiu get sick from eating?"

The other monkey boy didn't dare to cover his nose in front of the young master, but he also held his breath, his mung bean eyes rolled around, and after a while he pretended to be smart and suddenly realized, and he spoke with a nasal voice: "Xiao Jiu, what are you eating?" Is it? If you and the young master think about... that, don't you have to... pay attention in advance."

Xiaoyan was so angry that he almost fell on his back in the water, and a piece of soap locust flew out of his hand and hit Mung Douyan on the head: "You son of a bitch, what are you thinking! Is the young master's vision so bad? Give me the soap locust." Pick it up."

Mung Douyan and Hou Zizi ran away, their faces turned green, even servants couldn't sell anything like Yue Jiu: "Master, please let Yue Jiu pick it up for you."

Yue Jiu was pissed off, and shouted at their backs: "Little bastard, what are you thinking? Even digging out ten fat pits in the farmhouse can make such a big smell? See if I don't beat you two to death!"

After taking several stinky mandarin baths, several layers of skin were rubbed off, and it was almost dawn.The wounded soldiers may have unified their caliber in advance, and the survivors who were questioned at the scene were unanimous—going to practice diving.

The next day when I arrived at the Yamen, I was looking at the testimonials of the unscrupulous people and the testimonies recorded by the survivors. Although the case was simple, there were a lot of dead people. The two of them were busy with their lives. Yue Jiu was the most benevolent, so he put down the pen and paper when he had time, and said to Xiaoyan: " Young master, I want to go to Yizhuang."

Xiaoyan knew what Yue Jiu wanted to do as soon as he heard it. This time the accident happened to the Imperial Forest Army. It was an accident during training. It was a pity that he died. In order to reduce the impact, the military kept silent to the outside world. Yue Jiu was worried that someone would eat human blood Mantou, I want to see if the matter of helping the family is implemented.

Yue Jiu arrived at the yizhuang dedicated to Dali Temple, and the yard was covered with white cloth. He saw that there were few people who came to claim the corpses, but after asking, he found out that there were many people from other places who came to serve as soldiers to eat food, and there were few people in the capital. .

Even though he has handled cases all the year round and his heart is as steel as steel, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he thought that the young soldiers would have to return to their hometowns, and leaned against the guards in the courtyard to say a few words.

The sun was getting bigger and bigger, but he saw the little official from Dali Temple striding in. He looked up and scanned around the Yizhuang, saw Yue Jiu's direction, and immediately came over to report: "Master Yue, Master Wen of the capital just now Come to report, if there is something to do, please go to the residence with Mr. Yue."

Yue Jiu took off the gloves he was wearing just now: "Master Wen's home? Did you say something?"

The little officer was quite clever, and he had already asked the matter clearly before he came, and he lowered his head and replied: "Master, I heard from the chief manager who came to invite Wenfu, that Mr. Wen should have come here in person, but I'm worried that others will look too much at you. Let them come in charge, it's their lady's business, she said that Miss Wen has a high fever recently, can't sleep, the doctors are helpless, and said that she might be framed, so she came to invite Dali Temple."

Yue Jiu and the little officer were already very familiar, so he didn't say anything immediately, and rode back directly to meet Yue Xiaoyan.

Seeing Xiaoyan, Yue Jiu began to snort and express his anger: "Master, we can't even manage the corpses in Manyizhuang's yard, and we have to deal with the fact that their girls can't sleep, and we still have fantasies about someone harming them." Really, harming his family is also harming their man, what's the use of harming his girl?"

Xiaoyan leaned against the wall of the Dali Temple's office and study room, shrugged his shoulders: "Go, in case that girl has a pretty face, it won't be a loss if you go."

Yue Jiu glared at him: "You want to see it?"

Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and knocked Yue Jiu on the head: "I've got rid of Wushan as a cloud now, besides, who can be as good-looking as Enze."

Yue Jiuyi rolled his eyes, and almost spat out Xiaoyan: "I said, young master, you can't keep making fun of Mr. Liang. The rabbit bites when he is in a hurry. Even if he is generous and decent, he will still treat you when he is annoyed by you." Full of old punches!"

Xiaoyan licked his lips happily, probably because he didn't take the matter of being full of old punches too seriously, yes, after all, he experienced it himself, but it's not worth the sweetness of being kissed: "I just met someone Just be happy, be serious, don't talk nonsense, like how unscrupulous I am."

Yue Jiu suddenly patted his forehead with a hand like a chicken paw, and suddenly thought of where there was a dog's head hidden like gold: "Master, I remembered, isn't Master Wen's daughter Wen Yuyan? She has a temperament like orchid, Qin Chess calligraphy and paintings are famous in the capital, we have to go and see them for the sake of the admiration of the bachelors in the capital."

When we arrived at Mr. Wen's home, Mr. Wen and his wife had already personally greeted him at the gate of the mansion. After the meeting and ceremony, Mr. Wen began to introduce the situation: "Mr. Yue, it stands to reason that you have a lot of work to do every day, so you shouldn't bother you, but I really can't do anything. My little girl Yu Yan is 15 years old this year. She is the daughter of the whole family. She has always been healthy and lively, but she suddenly fell ill about ten days ago. Please sir."

"But who would have imagined that it would get worse day by day, the fever was dizzy, and you were talking nonsense. The doctors were helpless, saying that they might have been poisoned, and our family was also helpless. I know you are very careful. Come and see if you can find any clues."

Xiaoyan thinks empathetically, and also understands the embarrassment of parents all over the world. Master Wen rarely asks for help, and rarely opens his mouth for the sake of the child. After exchanging greetings, he was taken to the lady's boudoir.

A lot of exotic flowers and plants were planted in the courtyard, which also fit the girl's state of mind. If he hadn't been in Liang Enze's study a few days ago, he would have thought Miss Wen's room was the most elegant one he had ever entered—compared with him and Yue Yue. Jiu's courtyard with five elements and eight trigrams, which looks like a Huawai expert, is much better.

He heard about the lady's illness, and said that it was getting worse day by day, to the point where she fell asleep most of the time, and thought it might be chronic poisoning, and she was thinking about the items she used.

Xiaoyan and Yue Jiu took a serious drug test, carefully watched the reactions of the people in the lady's room, and checked all the corners that were easy to leave clues. But no matter how you look at it, everything is normal.
