Chapter 42 Snake Pattern Totem 13

As soon as Ni Yexin heard this, he immediately opened the door and walked out, saying: "The man has been found, let's go, let's go there."

Ni Yexin was taken by Chi Long, and soon met the so-called Mr. Hua. As soon as they arrived, Murong Changqing also walked in Shi Shiran. It seems that Chi Long's loud voice woke up the hero Murong. up.

That Mr. Hua looked to be in his twenties, and he was really submissive. Seeing them scared to death, he was shaking all over.His eyes were bloodshot, and he was spinning non-stop. It seemed that he hadn't slept well for several days, and he was very nervous all the time.

Ni Yexin sized him up a few times, and Mr. Hua was also sized up Ni Yexin, looking sly.

Ni Yexin smiled slightly and said, "Do you know why you were brought into the Yamen?"

That Mr. Hua trembled, almost knelt down on his knees, and said: "My lord, my lord! I have never done anything, I don't know, I don't know what the officials and lords came to me for, I am wronged died."

Before Ni Yexin could speak, Murong Changqing who was next to him was already impatient, and sneered, he stretched out his hand and slapped Mr. Hua on the shoulder, saying, "You'd better answer honestly, otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Mr. Hua's cold sweat dripping down.Mr. Hua opened his mouth wide and stared at his eyes. He looked like he was about to shout, but he couldn't make any sound from his throat. He was sweating so much that he felt like his shoulders were about to be torn off. , but couldn't say a word.

At the moment when Murong Changqing let go, Mr. Hua let out a loud "ah", and then knelt down with a "plop".

Ni Yexin looked at Mr. Hua with a smile, and said, "What's your name? If it's not Hua, what's your name?"

Mr. Hua trembled and said, "This... this is the official, the younger one's surname is Zhou."

Ni Yexin said: "So it's not Mr. Hua, it's Mr. Zhou."

Mr. Hua is just a cover for himself. Like Miss Hua, he is a person who does not exist.

In view of the fact that Murong Changqing's deterrent power was too great, Mr. Zhou was trembling, and he would answer every question Ni Yexin asked, as if he didn't dare to tell lies at all.

Ni Yexin said: "Do you still remember the girl who was traveling with you? You guys went to Yang's house together to blackmail, you must remember."

As soon as he mentioned this, Mr. Hua suddenly became nervous, as if someone had pinched his throat, and said: "Remember...remember...she, she is dead!"

"You know she's dead?" Ni Yexin raised her eyebrows.

Young Master Zhou nodded immediately and said, "I know, I know!"

Mr. Zhou looked very frightened, and told them that he was just a failed scholar, that he couldn't make money and couldn't make ends meet, so he could only idle around.He had met the eldest son-in-law of the Yang family a few times in the brothel, that is Mr. Zhu, but Mr. Zhu hadn't stepped in at the time.

That Mr. Zhu was still very rich at the time, and spent a lot of money, and spent a period of time as a fake Chinese girl in the brothel.Mr. Zhou also knew Miss Hua and spent the night in her room, so he heard something about Mr. Zhu.

After a period of time, the Zhu family was lonely, but Mr. Zhu became more prosperous than before. He married into a rich family and became the eldest son-in-law.

At that time, Mr. Zhou was very envious of him, and then suddenly thought of an idea to blackmail Mr. Zhu.So he found the girl in the brothel and asked her to go with him to blackmail Mr. Zhu.

That girl is also vain, so she just ran away, and then gave herself a false name, pretending to be Mr. Zhu's younger sister. The two of them came here all the way, claiming to be Mr. Zhu's former wife, and she was pregnant. Looking for Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhou was so talkative, he was telling stories in a teahouse, and then the fake Hua girl went to Yang's house every day to make trouble.

Mr. Zhu was shocked when he heard that his ex-wife had been found. He didn't have any ex-wife at all, so he wanted to coax her away with full confidence.

When Mr. Zhou said this, his expression was much richer, and he looked like a villain, and said: "Haha, guess what? Mr. Zhu came out to take a look, and saw that her whole face had changed. Let Miss Yang see it Li, it's clearly a guilty conscience!"

Mr. Zhu used to spend a lot of time drinking and drinking, and often lingered in romantic places, but after he married, he didn't dare to go to the brothel at all, but now a girl from the brothel suddenly came to him, which made Mr. Zhu really unexpected.

Mr. Zhou said: "Mr. Zhu, he was afraid that we would talk nonsense, so he secretly gave Miss Hua a silver coin, and she came back crying that day."

When Ni Yexin heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "So you think there is something to be gained, so you continue to go to the door every day to worry about it, and continue to blackmail that Mr. Zhu?"

"It's like this..." Mr. Zhou nodded, his expression changed suddenly, and he said, "But one day, when she came back, I saw her face was flushed and someone slapped her on the mouth. The handprint was relatively small. , It looks like she was beaten by a woman, and it must be Miss Yang who beat her. She told me that Miss Yang seems to know that they are cheating, so maybe she can't continue to blackmail her."

Ni Yexin immediately thought of the words of Miss Yang's maid, probably Miss Yang asked someone to inquire about their affairs, and found that they were here to blackmail.

Mr. Zhou continued: "When I heard it, I was a little scared. The Yang family not only had money, but also used to be an official with a high rank. I persuaded her that we have some money, so let's go. But ..."

But that Chinese girl obviously got too much benefit from it, so she started to be greedy.She was unwilling to leave like this, and even persuaded Mr. Zhou to continue waiting here.

Mr. Zhou said: "She told me that if we left suddenly, others would suspect us, and maybe they would arrest us to see the officials. I thought so, and then I continued to live here."

"And then? How did Miss Hua die?" Ni Yexin asked.

Mr. Zhou said: "Later, one day, I suddenly heard that Mr. Zhu, the eldest son-in-law of the Yang family, suddenly disappeared! He was kidnapped by bandits!"

Mr. Zhou is worthy of being a storyteller, his face is full of expressions, and his voice is frustrating, it really seems to be a storyteller.Ni Yexin secretly glanced at Murong Changqing's expression beside him, Murong Changqing was indeed on the verge of rage, and seemed impatient with his trickery.

Ni Yexin urged: "Hurry up, don't dawdle."

Then Mr. Zhou said: "You have all been deceived by Mr. Zhu! I said he is not a good person at all, and Miss Yang is also miserable. Why did she fall in love with him? I am much better than him! Mr. Zhu It wasn't kidnapped at all, but I designed a situation, and I pretended to be kidnapped and ran away!"

"How do you know?" Ni Yexin asked.

Mr. Zhou said: "Just after the day Mr. Zhu was kidnapped, Miss Hua brought a lot of banknotes, saying that Mr. Zhu gave them, and told them to leave quickly and stop entanglement. I saw, good guy, a lot of money. Bank notes. She told me that Mr. Zhu asked someone to give them to them. You also know that Mr. Zhu is an upside-down guy with a powerful daughter-in-law. How could he come up with so many bank notes? He used to only give It's just a small ingot of silver. I guess he ran away with a lot of money from the Yang family! He must not be able to stand that powerful daughter-in-law."

Miss Hua and Mr. Zhou got a lot of bank notes, very happy, ready to leave, they set off, but unexpectedly, Miss Hua died suddenly on the way.

Ni Yexin said: "Wait a minute, we found Miss Hua's body, and she was wearing a lot of jewelry from the Yang family. Those were all given to you by Mr. Zhu?"

"This isn't it." Mr. Zhou said with a mysterious look on his face again, "That's Miss Yang, who gave it to Miss Hua herself!"

"What?" Ni Yexin was a little surprised, and said, "Miss Yang gave it?"

Mr. Zhou nodded sharply, afraid that they would not be able to do so, and said: "I also find this thing very strange, but I have seen it with my own eyes, so I have to believe it."

When they got the bank notes and were about to leave, someone suddenly came to the door, and it was Miss Yang.But Miss Yang came alone, and she was very secretive, as if afraid of being seen by others.

Miss Yang gave Miss Hua a bag of things and told her to leave quickly and go wherever she wanted, saying that this bag of things was enough for her to spend the rest of her life.

Mr. Zhou said: "Guess what? I opened it and it turned out to be a bag of old and valuable jewelry! I couldn't keep my eyes open. We couldn't understand why Miss Yang suddenly gave us money. , but the jewelry is too valuable, of course we won't throw it away, so we took it and left."

They just hit the road, walked for a day, and then settled down.When we were in the inn, Mr. Zhou said that the girl Nahua probably got a lot of money, so she was very happy and became restless. She would wink at a man and almost pissed him off.Later, Mr. Zhou saw a man enter Miss Hua's room, and the two of them were laughing and joking.That night, Mr. Zhou didn't fall asleep almost all night, and he was very angry. As a result, the next morning, Mr. Zhou got up to ask Miss Hua to go on the road, but he didn't see Miss Hua. The room was already empty.

Mr. Zhou said: "I knew at the time that she was dead! There was no one in the room, but there were bloodstains on the floor that were not wiped clean!"

Ni Yexin said, "Blood?"

Mr. Zhou said: "It's absolutely true. I felt something was wrong at the time. I hurried out to have a look. Then, not far away, I found her...her body."

Mr. Zhou was the first to see Miss Hua's body, but he didn't dare to report to the officials and ran away, and he didn't dare to touch Miss Hua's body.

Mr. Zhou said: "Let me tell you, the person who entered her room that day definitely killed her. I still remember the appearance of that person! And, I guess, it was that Miss Yang who was sent to kill her." her!"

"How do you know?" Ni Yexin said.

Mr. Zhou said: "I guess! But, but! Think about it, why did Miss Yang give her so many precious jewelry for no reason? And I guess, Miss Yang actually had a concubine outside, and we bumped into her So, let’s kill people to silence them.”

"There is also a concubine?" Ni Yexin said strangely: "You guys still ran into each other?"

Mr. Zhou nodded and said, "Yes! On the third day when Mr. Zhu went out to do business, before dawn, I saw Miss Yang going out of the city in a carriage. I didn't know what to do. She's so mysterious. Think about it, she's going away while her husband is away, there must be something wrong!"
